Rob Capps, MIND's Co-Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We see this as a key step and inflection point in the expansion of our role to provide leading technology and solutions to the marine industry. We believe MIND will become known as the 'go-to' supplier for challenging exploration, survey and defense applications. Our Klein and Seamap brands are, and will remain, the 'gold standard' in their respective markets. The steps we have just completed are not an end to themselves, but in our opinion set the stage for the further growth and development that we envision in the coming months and years.
"In addition, in recognition of our focus on our marine technology products business, as well as recent changes in the global energy markets, we have now made the decision to exit the seismic land leasing business completely. We will seek to sell or otherwise dispose of those operations or the related assets and expect this process to be completed within the next 12 months," concluded Capps.
