Know Labs, Inc. Reports First Quarter FY2024 Results

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

Financial Highlights:

  • In Q1 FY 2024, Know Labs reported a net loss of $3.45 million dollars, compared to a net loss of $3.82 million dollars in Q1 FY 2023, a reduction in net loss of 9.8%. This translates to Earnings Per Share of a loss of $0.04, better than the prior year quarter Earnings Per Share Loss of $0.08, an improvement of 50%, before preferred stock dividends.
  • Recorded a non-cash charge to earnings of $792,000 principally related to stock-based compensation of $699,000.
  • Research and development expense for Q1 FY2024 was $1.48 million dollars as compared to $1.74 million dollars in Q1 FY 2023, a decrease of 14.7% year over year. The decrease in R&D expense was related to decreased personnel and the use of external consultants to reduce the cost of product development.
  • Selling, general and administrative expenses for Q1 FY 2024 was $2.01 million, which was higher by $106,000 than the $1.91 million dollars in the year ago period, an increase of 5.6%.
  • As of December 31, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $4.82 million dollars, as compared to $8.02 million at the end of September 30, 2023. Net cash used in operations for Q1 FY 2024 was $3.39 million dollars compared with $2.92 million in Q1 FY 2023.
  • During the year ended September 30, 2023, the Company made adjustments to its fixed expenses and the impact of those adjustments has significantly reduced 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 June 30, 2024. As we have stated in our Q1 FY 2024 10-Q, we expect to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, preferred stock and convertible debentures. To that end, we filed an $18 million S-3 shelf registration statement on December 22, 2023, which was subsequently declared effective on January 11, 2024.
  • Shareholder equity for Q1 FY 2024 was $1.23 million versus $3.74 million in fiscal year 2023, ending September 30, 2023.

As previously disclosed in its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 19, 2023, the audit opinion contained a going concern qualification from the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. This announcement is being made solely to comply with the New York Stock Exchange's Company Guide Sections 401(h) and 610(b), which require separate disclosure of receipt of an audit opinion that contains a going concern qualification. This announcement does not represent any change or amendment to the Company's 2023 audited financial statements or to its 2023 annual report on Form 10-K.

About Know Labs, Inc.

Know Labs, Inc. is a public company whose shares trade on the NYSE American Exchange under the stock symbol “KNW.” The Company’s platform technology uses spectroscopy to direct electromagnetic energy through a substance or material to capture a unique molecular signature. The technology can be integrated into a variety of wearable, mobile or bench-top form factors. This patented and patent-pending technology makes it possible to effectively identify and monitor analytes that could only previously be performed by invasive and/or expensive and time-consuming lab-based tests. The first application of the technology will be in a product marketed as a non-invasive glucose monitor. The device will provide the user with accessible and affordable real-time information on blood glucose levels. This product will require U.S. Food and Drug Administration clearance prior to its introduction to the market.
