Know Labs, Inc. (NYSE American: KNW), an emerging developer of non-invasive medical diagnostic technology, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended March 31, 2023.

Financial Highlights:

• Know Labs reported a net loss of $4.93 million dollars in the second quarter of 2023, compared to a net loss of $6.14 million dollars in the year-ago period, which translates to Earnings Per Share of a loss of $0.10, an improvement over the year ago period of a loss of $0.16.
• Research and development expense for the second quarter was $2.56 million dollars as compared to $1.25 million dollars in 2022. The increase in R&D expense was related to staff increases in engineering, third party technical services and expenditures related to the development of our Bio-RFID technology and Generation 1 device, as we continue to execute our path to FDA clinical trials and commercialization.
• Selling, general and administrative expense for the quarter was $2.24 million dollars versus $1.49 million in 2022, which increased versus the prior year primarily to due to key additions to the executive team and increases in third party services.
• As of March 31, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $6.27 million dollars, as compared to $12.59 million at the end of September 30, 2022. Net cash used in operations for the six months ended March 31, 2023 was $6.34 million dollars compared with $1.02 million in the prior year. During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the Company made adjustments to its staffing and the impact of those adjustments will significantly reduce our monthly burn rate. Given the significant reduction in fixed expenses, the Company believes that it has enough available cash and flexibility with its operating expenses to operate until at least February 2024.
• Shareholder equity for the second quarter 2023 was $3.4 million versus $9.9 million as of September 30, 2022.

The Company refers to its technology as Bio-RFID™. The Bio-RFID technology can be integrated into a variety of wearable, mobile or bench-top form factors.

This product will require U.S. Food and Drug Administration clearance prior to its introduction to the market.
