¹	Figures before Non-Recurring Charges related to the Transformation Plan and data library impairment

PARIS, France – July 28^th 2017 – CGG (ISIN: FR0013181864 – NYSE: CGG), world leader in Geoscience, announced today its 2017 second quarter unaudited results.

Commenting on these results, Jean-Georges Malcor, CGG CEO, said:

“This second quarter was characterized by the very continued commitment from our operational teams, ensuring a high quality service to our customers, and by major progress in our financial restructuring process.

Operationally, our solid $120 million EBITDA was driven by multi-client sales thanks to the good positioning of our data library. However, equipment sales were very low in a market with limited visibility and an uncertain recovery horizon. Our 2017 outlook is unchanged, with operating results in line with 2016 and downward pressure on cash flow generation as expected.

Page 2

In parallel, we achieved progress in our financial restructuring process initiated early in the year, in agreeing a plan with a majority of our creditors. This balanced plan meets the objectives of the company: preservation of the Group’s integrity, massive debt reduction, extension of the debt maturities and providing additional liquidity. It enabled us to enter in prearranged Safeguard and Chapter 11 processes backed by the majority of our creditors, thus helping to protect commercially, operationally and socially the Company in this period of uncertainty.

Following the creditors’ committees vote in France expected today and with the approval of the creditors in the United States sought by mid-October, the next decisive step for CGG’s sustainability will be the approval of the financial restructuring plan at the shareholders’ Extraordinary General Meeting scheduled for the end of October.

This proposed plan would result in a $2 billion net debt reduction and would provide the necessary liquidity to support the Company’s turnaround, while allowing shareholders to participate to the recovery.”

Post-closing event

•

CGG announced on July 13 that Eligible Holders representing 86.08% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes had committed to subscribe to the new 2024 HYB pursuant to the terms of the private placement agreement, and had acceded to the lock-up agreement as at July 7 (the end of the placement period). As a reminder, the issuance of the new 2024 HYB has been totally backstopped by members of the ad hoc committee of the holders of the Senior Notes.

Furthermore, holders of 74.24% of the combined aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes and the Convertible Bonds, together with holders of 77.66% of the aggregate principal amount of the group’s Secured Debt, have executed or acceded to the lock-up agreement. This indicates a high level of support for the Financial Restructuring and satisfies a key milestone in the implementation process ahead of creditors meetings in France and in the US.

Going concern

On June 14, 2017, a French safeguard procedure was opened with respect to the Company and, on the same date, a US Chapter 11 procedure was opened with respect to 14 of its direct or indirect subsidiaries which are guarantors of the secured debt (French and US Revolving Credit Facilities and Term Loan B) and / or the Senior Notes. Under the umbrella of these legal procedures, the holders of such debt and holders of our convertible bonds (c. U.S.$2.8 billion outstanding principal amount in total) can no longer call for any accelerated repayment. This provides the Group with a protective framework to conduct its businesses in the ordinary course and the Group stakeholders with a limited period of time to approve a restructuring plan.

The main features of the proposed restructuring plan have been disclosed together with the announcement of the above-mentioned court procedures on June 14, 2017:

•

Full conversion of unsecured debt (Senior Notes and convertible bonds) into equity;

•

Secured debt (French and US Revolving Credit Facilities and Term Loan B) exchanged for new secured first lien senior notes with a 5-year maturity;

•

Up to U.S.$500 million of new money raised through a U.S.$125 million Rights Issue and the issuance of U.S.$375 million of new secured second lien senior notes (with Warrants) with a 6-year maturity.

As of July 27, 2017, the Group faces material uncertainties that may cast substantial doubt upon its ability to continue as a going concern. Even under the protection of the court procedures mentioned above, and despite having successfully implemented during the first six months of 2017 all planned specific actions related to marine liabilities, fleet ownership and major contract factoring, the U.S.$315 million of Group liquidity as of June 30, 2017 does not allow to fully fund our current operations until at least June 30, 2018.

The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern then depends essentially on the effective and timely implementation of the proposed restructuring plan, especially the raising of up to U.S.$500 million of new money by early 2018. Should the creditors involved in the French safeguard and US Chapter 11 procedures or the shareholders fail to approve the proposed restructuring plan and/or should the targeted implementation timetable of such restructuring plan not be met, the Group liquidity would decrease below the required level to run the operations no later than in the first quarter of 2018 according to the Company cash flow forecasts. If the U.S.$500 million new money is raised in the first quarter of 2018 in accordance with the proposed restructuring plan, the Group liquidity is expected to be sufficient to fund our current operations until June 30, 2018 at least.

Following the successful completion of the private placement of the commitments to subscribe the new money secured second lien senior notes in a principal amount of U.S.$375 million (with Warrants) in early July, the proposed restructuring plan is now supported, through signed lock-up agreements, by the required majorities of creditors. On that basis, and in the light of the respective merits of the proposed restructuring plan for the other Group stakeholders, the Company believes that the implementation of the restructuring plan in the first quarter of 2018 is a reasonable assumption.

Having carefully considered the above, the Board of Directors on July 27, 2017 concluded that preparing the June 30, 2017 consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis is an appropriate assumption.

Contractual Data Acquisition Total Revenue was $82 million, up 39% year-on-year and 23% sequentially.

•

Contractual Marine Data Acquisition revenue was $61 million, up 173% year-on-year and 36% sequentially. Our vessel availability rate was 100%. This compares to 90% in the second quarter of 2016 and 91% in the first quarter of 2017. Our vessel production rate was 98%. This compares to 94% in the second quarter of 2016 and 98% in the first quarter of 2017. The higher revenue can be explained by the strong production performance coupled with the 100% fleet availability rate this quarter, after mobilization on two large surveys and vessel swap in Q1.

•

Land and Multi-Physics Data Acquisition revenue was $21 million, down 43% year-on-year and 4% sequentially. Market activity remains low.

Contractual Data Acquisition EBITDAs was $(1) million, a margin of (1.1)%.

Contractual Data Acquisition Operating Income was $(13) million, a margin of (15.5)%. Contractual Data Acquisition activities continued to suffer from a still competitive market, mitigated by the strong fleet productivity and the positive impact of Global Seismic Shipping on the cost structure.

Contractual Data Acquisition Capital Employed was stable at $0.4 billion at the end of June 2017.

Second quarter 2017 financial results

Group Total Revenue was $350 million, up 21% year-on-year and 40% sequentially. The respective contributions from the Group’s businesses were 63% from GGR, 14% from Equipment and 23% from Contractual Data Acquisition.

Group EBITDAs was $120 million, a 34.3% margin, and $25 million after $(95) million of Non-Recurring Charges (NRC) related to the Transformation Plan. Excluding Non-Operated Resources (NOR), and to focus solely on the performance of our active Business Lines, Group EBITDAs was $122 million.

Group Operating Income was $(3) million, a (1.0)% margin, and $(98) million after $(95) millions of NRC. Excluding NOR, and to focus solely on the performance of our active Business Lines, Group Operating Income was $2 million.

Equity from Investments contribution was $(3) million and can notably be explained by the negative contribution made by the Global Seismic Shipping JV this quarter.

Total non-recurring charges were $95 million:

•

$53 million of Group Transformation Plan charges, mainly related to Global Seismic Shipping set up

•

$42 million of Financial restructuring costs

Net financial costs were $48 million:

•

Cost of debt was $49 million. The total amount of interest paid during the quarter was $14 million

•

Other financial items were positive $1 million, the negative impact of the Global Seismic Shipping set up being balanced by the positive foreign exchange impact.

Total Income Taxes were $21 million.

Group Net Income was $(170) million after NRC.

After minority interests, Net Income attributable to the owners of CGG was a loss of $(169) million / €(155) million. EPS was negative at $(7.64) / €(7.00).

First Half 2017 Financial Results

Group Total Revenue was $599 million, down 1% compared to 2016. The respective contributions from the Group’s businesses were 63% from GGR, 12% from Equipment and 25% from Contractual Data Acquisition.

Group EBITDAs was $149 million, a 24.8% margin, and $24 million after $(124) million of NRC related to the Transformation Plan. Excluding NOR, and to focus solely on the performance of our active Business Lines, Group EBITDAs was $159 million.

Group Operating Income was $(71) million, an (11.8)% margin, and $(195) million after $(124) million of NRC. Excluding NOR, and to focus solely on the performance of our active Business Lines, Group Operating Income was $(45) million.

•

GGR operating income margin was at 14.7%. Multi-Client sales reached $205 million with a cash prefunding rate of 117%. Our highest offshore multi-client sales were made in Gulf of Mexico and Brazil. The depreciation rate was 67% leading to a Net Book Value of $833 million at the end of June.

Subsurface Imaging delivered a resilient performance, while reservoir businesses were impacted by clients’ low capex spending.

•

Equipment operating income margin was at (34.0)%. Despite very efficient cost management and its manufacturing flexibility, very low volumes continue to strongly impact the profitability of this segment.

•

Contractual Data Acquisition operating income margin was at (34.5)% due to weak pricing conditions in Marine, despite our fleet’s good operational performance with a high production rate at 98%. 59% of our fleet was dedicated to the contractual market over the semester. Land and Multi-Physics acquisition continued to suffer from a global low level of activity and slow clients’ decision process.

•

NOR operating income was at $(26) million.

Equity from Investments contribution was nil this semester.

Total non-recurring charges (NRC) were $124 million:

•

$71 million of Group Transformation Plan charges, mainly related to Global Seismic Shipping set up

•

$53 million of Financial restructuring costs

Net financial costs were $97 million:

•

Cost of debt was $96 million. The total amount of interest paid was $58 million

•

Other financial items were negative at $1 million

Total Income Taxes were $23 million.

Group Net Income was $(315) million after NRC.

After minority interests, Net Income attributable to the owners of CGG was a loss of $(313) million / €(291) million. EPS was negative at $(14.15) / €(13.12).

Cash Flow

Cash Flow from operations was $87 million before NRC, compared to $372 million for the first half of 2016. Cash Flow from operations was $(13) million after cash NRC.

Global Capex was $146 million, down 28% year-on-year:

•

Industrial capex was $23 million, up 3% year-on-year

•

Research & development capex was $15 million, down 19% year-on-year

•

Multi-client cash capex was $108 million, down 33% year-on-year

After the payment of interest expenses and Capex and before NRC, Free Cash Flow was $(98) million compared to $97 million for the first half of 2016. After cash NRC, Free Cash Flow was $(198) million.

Balance Sheet

Group gross debt was $2.812 billion at the end of June 2017. Available cash was $315 million and Group net debt was $2.497 billion.

The net debt to shareholders equity ratio, at the end of June 2017, was 337% compared to 206% at the end of December 2016.

The Group’s liquidity amounted to $315 million at the end of June 2017.

Leverage ratio and interest cover ratio are not applicable as of June 31, 2017 as a result of the French safeguard procedure and US Chapter 11 procedure.

Consistent with the financial statements as of December 31, 2016, it appears that reclassifying the financial debt as a current liability is the most appropriate accounting treatment according to IAS 1 for the interim financial statements authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on July 27, 2017. This pure accounting reclassification does not question the going concern assumption. Together, the coordinated proceedings in France and the U.S. prevented acceleration of the debt in France and stayed enforcement in respect of the debt outside of France.

As a result of the July 20, 2016 reverse stock split, the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share has been adjusted retrospectively. Number of ordinary shares outstanding has been adjusted to reflect the proportionate change in the number of shares.

(3)

As our net result was a loss, stock-options, performance shares plans and convertible bonds had an accretive effect; as a consequence, potential shares linked to those instruments were not taken into account in the dilutive weighted average number of shares, or in the calculation of diluted loss per share.

(1)	Share of operating results of companies accounted for under the equity method was U.S.$2.7 million and U.S.$(0.3) million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

(2)	At the Group level, Operating Income and EBIT before costs related to the Transformation Plan, both amounted to U.S.$(70.7) million, for the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to U.S.$(103.7) million and U.S.$(103.8) million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

(a)
