Technological change in the seismic industry requires us to make substantial research and development expenditures and may render our technology obsolete. Volatility of oil and natural gas prices, which is affected by factors outside of our control, affects demand for our geophysical equipment products. Loss of any major customer or consolidation among major customers could materially and adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition. We derive a significant amount of our revenues from foreign sales, which pose additional risks, including economic, political and other uncertainties. We experience fluctuations in operating results. An impairment of goodwill could reduce our earnings and stockholders equity. Weak sales demand or obsolescence of our inventory may require an increase to our inventory valuation reserve. Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls could adversely affect our business and stock price. We may be unable to obtain broad intellectual property protection for our current and future products, which could result in loss of revenue and any competitive advantage we hold. The loss of any member of our senior management and other key employees may adversely affect our results of operations. Provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could discourage a takeover attempt, which may reduce or eliminate the likelihood of a change of control transaction and, therefore, the ability of our stockholders to sell their shares for a premium. Because we have no plans to pay any dividends for the foreseeable future, investors must look solely to stock appreciation for a return on their investment in us. The market price of our common stock may be volatile.
