Mitcham Industries, Inc. (MIND) Reports Increase in Net Income and Revenues

Revenues also increased, to $17.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 from $16.2 million in last year’s fourth fiscal quarter. The company attributed the increase in sales to strong results at the Seamap segment and higher demand for lease pool equipment.

Our revenues for the fourth quarter increased approximately 7% from a year ago and almost 20% from the third quarter.
