Pulse Seismic Signs $5.1 Million 3D Seismic Data Licence

TSX : PSD
OTCQX : PLSDF

CALGARY, June 10, 2015 /CNW/ - Pulse Seismic Inc. ("Pulse" or "the Company") is pleased to announce it has signed a $5.1 million seismic data licensing agreement, resulting in total seismic data library sales of $6.2 million so far for the second quarter of 2015. The sale brings year-to-date seismic data library sales to $7.5 million.

"This significant sale makes Pulse's year-to-date data library sales revenue sufficient to cover the Company's cash operating and interest costs for the full year," stated Neal Coleman, Pulse's President and CEO. "Although low commodity prices have reduced traditional seismic data library sales, we are pleased to see corporate transactions in the oil and gas producing sector which are leading to significant transactional data library sales revenue."

The agreement announced today is a transactional seismic data licensing sale. The licensed data is spread throughout the Deep Basin region of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin. As discussed in Pulse's annual report for the year ended December 31, 2014, transactional sales are forming an increasing proportion of the Company's overall revenue, with traditional sales having declined due to reduced field capital spending by oil and natural gas producers.

As Pulse has frequently noted in past disclosure documents, the amount and timing of seismic data sales are unpredictable, and the typically large size but unpredictable nature of transaction-based sales increases the difficulty of forecasting Company revenue.

Pulse's low cost structure enables the Company to generate shareholder free cash flow at low levels of annual data library sales revenue. The Company remains hopeful of securing additional transactional as well as traditional sales through the balance of 2015.

The financial information in this news release is based on management's estimates and has not yet been approved by the Company's Audit Committee or Board of Directors, or reviewed by the Company's auditors.

On July 31, 2015 the Company anticipates releasing full financial statements and related information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015.
