Financial Results

Revenue was $33,459 for the three months ended October 31, 2023 compared to $110,624 for the three months ended October 31, 2022. Our revenues consist of those derived from our two segments: (i) short-term rental income: $3,099 for the three months ended October 31, 2023 and $33,322 for the three months ended October 31, 2022; and (ii) platform services income: $30,360 for the three months ended October 31, 2023 and $77,302 for the three months ended October 31, 2022. Revenue was $101,180 for the six months ended October 31, 2023 compared to $199,497 for the six months ended October 31, 2022. Our revenues consist of those derived from our two segments: (i) short-term rental income: $22,662 for the six months ended October 31, 2023 and $59,789 for the six months ended October 31, 2022; and (ii) platform services income: $78,518 for the six months ended October 31, 2023 and $139,708 for the six months ended October 31, 2022.

The Company had cash on hand of $605,337 and $ 1,256,868 as of October 31, 2023, and April 30, 2023 respectively.

Net loss was $4,252,879 for the three months ended October 31, 2023, compared to a net loss of $1,559,016 for the three months ended October 31, 2022. The net loss increase is mainly due a significant increase to general legal advisory and professional services, which primarily consisted of issuance of shares of reAlpha’s common stock in exchange for services rendered in connection with reAlpha’s direct listing on Nasdaq. Net income was $590,128 for the six months ended October 31, 2023, compared to a net loss of $2,526,644 for the six months ended October 31, 2022. The reason for this significant increase in our net income during the six months ended October 31, 2023, is mainly attributable to the gain on sale of myAlphie, as described above. This increase in net income may not reflect our current business and may be abnormally high for this period.

Adjusted EBITDA was $(626,885) for the three months ended October 31, 2023, compared to $(1,481,579) for the three months ended October 31, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA was $(4,815,881) for the six months ended October 31, 2023, compared to $(2,368,438) for the six months ended October 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 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 and related costs and non-recurring gains. For the three months ended October 31, 2023 and October 31, 2022, we did not have any restructuring expenses and non-recurring acquisition-related compensation expenses.
