Interim accounts

 

Flex Labs (AQSE: FLEX) announces its unaudited results for the six months ended 31 December 2023.

 

Comments from Michael Edwards, Chairman of Flex Labs Inc:

 

"I am pleased to report Flex Labs Inc.'s (the Company's) interim results spanning the financial period from 1 July 2023 to 31 December 2023. The Company was listed on the AQUIS Stock Exchange (AQSE) on 15 December 2023. No revenue was generated and a loss before tax of CAD$693,853 was incurred in the period under review.

 

The expenses in this period reflect the development costs of the business, professional and other costs relating to the early rounds of equity funding, followed by the Company's IPO. Cash and cash equivalents amounted to CAD$434,074 at the 31 December 2023.

 

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all shareholders for their support, which has enabled the Company to scale up its resources, activities, and development in a very short space of time. The key driver of our core business will be the growth of the overall Artificial Intelligence (AI) market. With Bloomberg Intelligence suggesting the generative AI market could grow from USD$40 billion to USD$1.3 trillion over the next 10 years (https://www.bloomberg.com/company/press/generative-ai-to-become-a-1-3-trillion-market-by-2032-research-finds/), we remain excited about how Flex Labs can enable development in this area.

 

A key element to capturing this growing market is the building of an effective and user-friendly product. I am pleased to report that our website now displays a number of publicly accessible applications alongside a number of applications in closed beta which have utilised Flex Labs to develop AI based applications.

 

At the current stage of development, Flex Labs Inc. uses AI-based conditional triggers with multi-model support to simplify the process of AI app development. This allows faster development alongside troubleshooting assistance making app development accessible even to non-technical individuals.

 

With our IPO and investment into the business in 2023 we now have a solid platform for long term growth and the value necessary to drive revenue in the year ahead and beyond. We are confident that we have laid the foundation to continue development over the coming years."
