Know Labs, Inc. Reports Third Quarter FY 2024 Results

Know Labs, Inc. (NYSE American: KNW), a leading developer of non-invasive medical diagnostic technology, today reported financial results for the third quarter of the fiscal year 2024 ended June 30, 2024.

Financial Highlights:

  • In Q3 FY 2024, Know Labs reported a net loss of $4.10 million dollars, compared to a net loss of $3.60 million dollars in Q3 FY 2023, an increase in net loss of 13.9%. This translates to earnings per share of a loss of $0.05, better than the prior year earnings per share loss of $0.07, before preferred stock dividends.
  • Recorded a non-cash charge to earnings of $1.58 million dollars principally related to stock-based compensation of $1.0 million dollars, ​​amortization of operating lease right-of-use asset of $276,000, and interest expense for the extension of notes and warrants of $240,000.
  • Research and development expense for Q3 FY 2024 was $1.35 million dollars as compared to $1.88 million dollars in Q3 FY 2023, a decrease of 28.2% year over year. The decrease was due primarily to the completion of hardware and software product development milestones and continued use of consultants to reduce the cost of product development.
  • Selling, general and administrative expenses for Q3 FY 2024 was $2.49 million dollars, which was higher by $1.13 million dollars than the $1.36 million dollars in the year ago period. The increase was due primarily to salary expenses for several key hires, legal expenses related to financing activities and intellectual property assets, and an increase in stock-based compensation.
  • As of June 30, 2024, Know Labs had cash and cash equivalents of $2.13 million dollars, as compared to $8.02 million dollars at the end of September 30, 2023. Net cash used in operations for the first nine months of FY 2024 was $9.57 million dollars compared with $8.98 million dollars in the same nine-month period of FY 2023.
  • The Company is undertaking initiatives to significantly reduce fixed expenses and monthly burn rate. Subsequent to the end of Q3 FY 2024, on August 9, 2024, Know Labs closed a firm commitment underwritten public offering of $3.45 million dollars; which with the cash on hand, the Company believes that it has enough available cash and flexibility with its operating expenses to operate until at least December 31, 2024.
  • As noted in the Q3 FY 2024 10-Q, the Company plans to seek additional funding under the effective S-3 shelf registration statement to ensure operations well into 2025.
  • Shareholder equity for Q3 FY 2024 was a negative $4.60 million dollars versus $3.74 million dollars in FY 2023, ending September 30, 2023. The Company is actively taking steps to address its negative shareholder equity through the conversion of convertible debt to equity.

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.
