Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
 
Geospace Technologies Corporation (the "Company") executive management has been evaluating opportunities to operate more efficiently and profitably by optimizing the Company's cost structure. At the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, the Company’s executive management implemented an organizational change plan, which included a Voluntary Early Retirement plan available to eligible qualifying employees as well as a Reduction in Force. This organizational change plan will result in approximately 20% reduction in the global workforce, and together with cost-containment measures are expected to produce approximately $10 million of annualized cash savings.
 
In connection with the workforce reduction, the Company expects to incur $0.6 million of termination costs in its second fiscal quarter and incur $0.7 million of costs in its third fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2026.  These charges primarily relate to employee transition, severance payments, and employee benefits
