Know Labs, Inc. (NYSE American: KNW), an emerging developer of non-invasive medical diagnostic technology, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Financial Highlights:

• Know Labs reported a net loss of $3.59 million dollars in the third quarter of 2023, compared to a net loss of $3.03 million dollars in the year-ago period, which translates to Earnings Per Share of a loss of $0.07, unchanged from the year ago period of a loss of $0.07 before preferred stock dividends.
• Recorded a non-cash charge to earnings of $4.96 million related to the fair market value of dividends on the Company’s Series C and D preferred stock, that were either paid or accrued in shares of common stock in the quarter.
• Research and development expense for the third quarter was $1.87 million dollars as compared to $1.27 million dollars in 2022. The increase in R&D expense was related to increases in engineering, third-party technical services, and expenditures related to the development of our Generation 1 device, which we completed and announced on June 7^th, as we continue to execute our path to FDA clinical trials and commercialization.
• Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter was $1.35 million, which was sequentially lower by $890,000 than the $2.24 million dollars in the second quarter, as well as lower than the year ago period of $1.58 million, as we continue our initiatives to reduce our cash burn.
• As of June 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3.93 million dollars, as compared to $12.59 million at the end of September 30, 2022. Net cash used in operations for the nine-month period ending June 30, 2023 was $8.97 million dollars compared with $3.69 million in the prior year.
• During the quarter that ended June 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 December 2023. As we have stated in our Third Quarter 10-Q, during 2023, we expect to raise additional funds through the issuance of preferred stock, convertible debentures, and equity.
• Shareholder equity for the third quarter 2023 was $0.72 million versus $9.9 million as of September 30, 2022.
