                             INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors 
Input/Output, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan 
benefits of the Input/Output, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan as of June 
30, 1998 and 1997 and the related statements of changes in net assets 
available for plan benefits for the year ended June 30, 1998 and for the 
period from April 1, 1997 (date operations commenced) through June 30, 1997. 
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. 
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 
based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free 
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, 
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and 
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall 
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a 
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in 
all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the 
Input/Output, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan as of June 30, 1998 and 1997 
and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the year ended 
June 30, 1998 and for the period from April 1, 1997 (date operations 
commenced) through June 30, 1997 in conformity with generally accepted 
accounting principles.

                           NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1)  DESCRIPTION OF PLAN:

          The following brief description of the Input/Output, Inc. Employee
     Stock Purchase Plan ("the Purchase Plan") is provided for general
     information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Purchase Plan
     for complete information regarding the Purchase Plan's definitions,
     benefits, eligibility and other matters.

     (a) GENERAL

          The Purchase Plan was approved by the Input/Output, Inc. (the Company)
     Board of Directors in March, 1997 and commenced on April 1, 1997. The
     Stockholders of the Company approved the Purchase Plan on September 29,
     1997. There are 1.5 million shares of Common Stock of the Company reserved
     for issuance under the Purchase Plan. 

          The Purchase Plan is intended to advance the long-term interests of
     the Company by encouraging the acquisition and ownership of capital stock
     of the Company by employees of the Company. The Purchase Plan is intended
     to qualify as an "employee stock purchase plan" under Section 423 of the
     Internal Revenue Code (the Code) of 1986, as amended.
     
     (b) ELIGIBILITY
     
          An "eligible employee" under the Purchase Plan is a person who (i) is
     actively employed (ii) is actively employed on the first day of the
     calendar month prior to an offering period and (iii) is not excluded
     pursuant to the following sentence. The following persons shall not be
     eligible: (1) employees whose customary employment is twenty (20) hours or
     less per week, (2) employees who have not been employed for at least six
     months prior to the beginning of an Offering Period, and (3) an employee
     who owns 5% or more of the Company's Common Stock.
     
     (c) CONTRIBUTIONS

          The Purchase Plan allows all eligible employees to authorize payroll
     deductions at the rate of 1% up to 15% of base compensation to be applied
     toward the purchase of Input/Output, Inc. Common Stock. The Purchase Price
     of the Common Stock will be the lesser of 85% of the closing price on the
     first day of the applicable Offering Period or most recently preceding
     trading day or 85% of the closing price on the last day of the Offering
     Period or most recently preceding trading day. Under the Purchase Plan,
     separate six-month offering periods commence on April 1st and October 1st
     of each year.

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

     (d)  PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS

          A Purchase Plan account in the name of each participant will be
     maintained. On each pay day a participant's payroll deduction shall be
     withheld and credited to such account. As of the last day of the Offering
     Period the amount then in the participant's account shall be applied to the
     purchase of the Company's Common Stock. The purchase of stock will be made
     solely from amounts credited to the participant's plan account. The total
     number of employees participating in the purchase plan as of June 30, 1998
     and 1997 was 401 and 378, respectively.

     (e)  DISTRIBUTIONS

          A participant may request in writing the sale of all or part of the
     shares of Common Stock in such participant's plan account. The shares will
     be sold within five business days, and the Purchase Plan will deliver to
     the participant the proceeds of the sale, less a handling charge, brokerage
     commissions, and other costs of sale.

(2)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     The financial statements of the Plan are presented on the accrual basis 
of accounting.

     Investments in Company Stock are reported at fair value determined by 
reference to quoted market prices. Net realized gains and losses on 
disposition of investments are reported on the revalued cost method. Revalued 
cost is the fair value of the assets at the beginning of the Plan year or 
historical cost if the investment was acquired since the beginning of the 
year. Any unrealized appreciation or depreciation is recognized as a gain or 
loss currently in the statement of changes in net assets available for 
benefits.

(3)  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

     The Purchase Plan and the right of participants to make purchases 
thereunder are intended to qualify under the provision of Section 423 of the 
Code. Under those provisions, no income will be taxable to a participant at 
the time of the grant of the option or purchase of shares for federal income 
tax purposes. However, a participant may become liable for tax upon 
dispositions of shares acquired, and the tax consequences will depend on how 
long a participant has held the shares prior to disposition.
