DUBLIN, Ohio–(BUSINESS WIRE)–reAlpha Tech Corp. (“reAlpha,” “Company,” “us,” “we” or “our”) (Nasdaq: AIRE), a real estate technology company focused on developing, utilizing and commercializing real estate-focused artificial intelligence (“AI”) technologies, today provides a business update and reports financial results for the eight month period ended December 31, 2023. In accordance with a change of its fiscal year end from April 30 to December 31, effective as of December 31, 2023, the Company is reporting results for the transition period between May 1, 2023 and December 31, 2023.

“2023 marked a pivotal chapter in reAlpha’s journey,” said Giri Devanur, Chief Executive Officer of reAlpha. “We successfully debuted on the Nasdaq Capital Market in October, raised $8.0 million in gross proceeds through a public offering in November, and introduced GENA, our AI-powered real estate technology, to kick-start our goal to commercialize our technologies. Additionally, with the execution of definitive agreements to acquire Naamche, Inc. and Naamche Inc. Pvt. Ltd., coupled with a non-binding letter of intent to acquire United Software Group and certain affiliated entities, the due diligence process for which is still ongoing, we believe reAlpha is well-positioned to drive sustainable growth and create stockholder value while advancing innovative AI solutions,” concluded Mr. Devanur.

Recent strategic and operational highlights during the transition period ended December 31, 2023 include:

Listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol “AIRE” on October 23, 2023.
Announced the launch of GENA, formerly known as BnBGPT, a technology that enhances residential property listings in multiple online real estate marketplaces through the integration of personalized generative AI descriptions.
Consummated a public offering for gross proceeds of $8.0 million on November 24, 2023.
Entered into definitive agreements to acquire Naamche, Inc. and Naamche, Inc. Pvt. Ltd (collectively, “Naamche”), a technology company focused on developing AI-powered solutions for large industries, including real estate, which is subject to closing conditions and jurisdictional approval (the “Acquisitions”).
Approved the change of our fiscal year-end from April 30 to December 31, effective as of December 31, 2023.
Entered into a non-binding letter of intent to acquire United Software Group and certain subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “USG”), an Ohio-based privately-held, multi-industry information technology consulting company.

Business Strategy Update

Given the current macroeconomic climate, including rising interest rates, inflation, and high property prices, we decided to pause our efforts in acquiring real estate. Instead, we shifted our focus towards improving and developing our AI technologies for commercial applications, aiming to create revenue through technology while our short-term rental operations are on hold. We intend to continue commercializing our technologies to further add technology-derived revenue streams. We may resume the complementary direct real estate investing model from our rental business segment when prevailing interest rates and other macroeconomic factors align more favorably. In the meantime, our growth strategy will encompass both organic and inorganic methods through commercialization of our AI technologies that are in varying stages of development and acquisitions of complementary businesses and technologies.

Financial Results

In accordance with a change of our fiscal year end from April 30 to December 31, effective as of December 31, 2023, we are reporting results for the transition period between May 1, 2023 and December 31, 2023.

Revenue for the eight months ended December 31, 2023 was $121,690, compared to $284,666 for the eight months ended December 31, 2022. Our revenues consist of both the short-term rental revenue that we receive from our listed properties, if any, and platform services income that we receive from our technologies. This decrease in revenues is mainly attributed to lower rental income segment due to the disposal of properties during the eight months ended December 31, 2023, and lower platform services segment revenue compared to the eight months ended December 31, 2022 as a result of the sale of myAlphie.

We had cash and cash equivalents of $6,456,370 as of December 31, 2023 and $1,256,868 as of April 30, 2023.

Net loss was $1,251,259 for the eight months ended December 31, 2023, compared to a net loss of $4,241,555 for the eight months ended December 31, 2022. This significant decrease in net loss is predominantly attributable to the sale of myAlphie during the eight months ended December 31, 2023. This decrease in net loss may not accurately represent our current business operations and may be unusually elevated for this period due to the impact of the myAlphie sale.

Adjusted EBITDA was $(2,297,480) for the eight months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $(4,031,674) for the eight months ended December 31, 2022. The full reconciliation to Adjusted EBITDA is set forth below.

Explanatory Notes on Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP (“GAAP”), we believe “Adjusted EBITDA,” a “non-GAAP financial measure”, as such term is defined under the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), is useful in evaluating our operating performance. We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, Adjusted EBITDA is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. A reconciliation is provided below for each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

We reconcile our non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA to our net income, adjusted to exclude interest expense, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-recurring acquisition-related compensation expenses, non-recurring direct listing expenses, unrealized gain or loss on foreign exchange, non-recurring legal reserves, settlement expenses and related costs and non-recurring gains and losses. For the transition period ended December 31, 2023 and the fiscal year ended April 30, 2023, we did not have any restructuring expenses or non-recurring acquisition-related compensation expenses.
