Item 8.01 Other Events

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

        The unaudited pro forma statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2004 give pro forma effect to: (1) the GX Technology Corporation (GXT) acquisition and (2) the registered offering of Input/Output, Inc. (I/O) common stock, as if the transactions had been consummated on January 1, 2003.

        The unaudited pro forma financial information is based on the assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying notes. The unaudited pro forma statement of operations does not purport to represent what our results of operations actually would have been if the events described above had occurred as of the date indicated or what our results will be for any future periods. The unaudited pro forma financial statements are based upon assumptions and adjustments that we believe are reasonable. The unaudited pro forma financial statements and the accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with our historical financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K (as amended by Forms 10-K/A-1 and 10-K/A-2), and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004, respectively, and the historical financial statements of GXT, including the notes thereto, included in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 11, 2004.



        The assets acquired and the liabilities assumed of GXT referred to in these unaudited pro forma financial statements have been recorded at their estimated fair values as of the date of the acquisition. The allocation in these unaudited pro forma financial statements is a preliminary allocation based on an internally prepared valuation of the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities of GXT. When finalized, the allocation may vary from the allocation presented in these unaudited pro forma financial statements.
