The Geminga light curve obtained with the 'Gamma-1' telescope features two peaks separated by 0.5 +/- 0.03 period. The light curve is pronounced for gamma-quanta energies higher than 400 MeV. The pulsed flux upper limit (1 sigma) in the energy interval 50 - 300 MeV is 6 x 10-7((sq cm)(sec)). For energies greater than 300 MeV the pulsed component power law spectrum has an exponent 1.1-0.3+1.1 and an integral flux (1.1 +/- 0.3) x 10-6/((sq cm)(sec)). The Geminga gamma-ray source was a secondary target of the 'Gamma-1' telescope in the period from 30 Nov 1990 to 2 Feb 1991. A total exposure (after taking into account the dead tme of the telescope) was 508824 s.
