.
The backlog of Marine Technology Products related to our Seamap segment as of October 31, 2024 was approximately $26.2 million which was flat sequentially compared to backlog as of July 31, 2024.
Rob Capps, MIND's President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We are very pleased to report that third quarter revenue grew 21% sequentially and 143% over last year's third quarter. We continue to capitalize on macro tailwinds and customer engagement to stimulate order flow and generate improved results. We are also continually working to improve our execution, efficiency and cost structure, which we expect to contribute to sustained profitability in future quarters. As in the second quarter, we generated positive cash flow from operations in this quarter, increasing our cash balance to $3.5 million as of October 31, 2024.
"We have begun our fiscal fourth quarter with a strong backlog of approximately $26.2 million, essentially flat compared to our second quarter. Looking closer, however, we made substantial order deliveries during the third quarter that contributed to our 21% sequential revenue growth, and we were able to balance this growth with new orders. We expect this trend to continue in future periods and have an active pipeline of pending orders and other prospects that total more than twice our backlog of orders received. The combination of our improved capital structure, encouraging business environment, robust backlog and exceptional pipeline of opportunities gives us confidence for improved financial results in the coming quarters and fiscal year," concluded Capps.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. EBITDA is defined as net income before (a) interest income and interest expense, (b) provision for (or benefit from) income taxes and (c) depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes non-cash foreign exchange gains and losses, stock-based compensation, impairment of intangible assets and other non-cash tax related items. We consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be important indicators for the performance of our business, but not measures of performance or liquidity calculated in accordance with GAAP. We have included these non-GAAP financial measures because management utilizes this information for assessing our performance and liquidity, and as indicators of our ability to make capital expenditures, service debt and finance working capital requirements and we believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are measurements that are commonly used by analysts and some investors in evaluating the performance and liquidity of companies such as us. In particular, we believe that it is useful to our analysts and investors to understand this relationship because it excludes transactions not related to our core cash operating activities. We believe that excluding these transactions allows investors to meaningfully trend and analyze the performance of our core cash operations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities or as alternatives to net income as indicators of operating performance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. In evaluating our performance as measured by EBITDA, management recognizes and considers the limitations of this measurement. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our obligations for the payment of income taxes, interest expense or other obligations such as capital expenditures. Accordingly, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are only two of the measurements that management utilizes. Other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable with similarly titled measures reported by other companies. |
