This paper deals with the problem of parameters estimation of the Exponential-Geometric (EG) distribution based on progressive type-II censored data. It turns out that the maximum likelihood estimators for the distribution parameters have no closed forms, therefore the EM algorithm are alternatively used. The asymptotic variance of the MLEs of the targeted parameters under progressive type-II censoring is computed along with the asymptotic confidence intervals. Finally, a simple numerical example is given to illustrate the obtained results.
