Life at Geospace Technologies
Over our multi-decade history, we’ve grown through acquisition and mergers, expanded globally, and become publicly traded. We began when Tokyo-based OYO Corporation entered the North American seismic instrumentation market in 1980. A few years later in 1983, OYO Japan’s North American operations were conducted through a wholly owned holding company, OYO U.S.A. In 1986, OYO U.S.A. acquired the geophone and hydrophone operations of AMF Geo Space Corporation, a leading U.S. manufacturer of geophones. In 1988, these acquired operations and the company’s separate geophone operations merged to form Geo Space Corporation (“Geo Space”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
By 1994, a subsidiary of OYO U.S.A., OYO Geospace Corporation was created by adding Houston Geophysical Products and the AMF thermal plotter line. The plotter line would be known as OYO Instruments.
Two million shares of the firm’s common stock (NASDAQ: OYOG) went on sale at $14.00 per share on November 20, 1997. In 1998, OYO Geospace Corporation acquired JRC/Concord Technologies Inc. as a wholly owned subsidiary operating as Concord Technologies, specializing in the design and manufacture of marine seismic streamer accessories.
In February 2012, OYO Corporation U.S.A. sold its shares of OYO Geospace Corporation. Effective October 1, 2012, OYO Geospace Corporation changed its name and ticker symbol to Geospace Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: GEOS). At the same time, OYO Instruments became known as EXILE Technologies.
Growth and diversification continued in 2018 with two acquisitions. In July, the Company acquired Quantum Technology Sciences, a privately held security and surveillance sensing technology company doing business with the U.S. federal government. The Company operates as a wholly owned subsidiary and remains headquartered in Florida. Later that year, the Norwegian company PGS sold its fiber optic permanent reservoir monitoring solution, Optoseis®, to Geospace.
