Management Commentary

“In the first quarter of 2024 we had controlled losses as we invested in new market segments and new solution sets for our current and new clients in 2024 and 2025,” remarked David Houston, Chief Financial Officer, LiveWorld. “We anticipate the losses to diminish as we see increased revenue for the rest of the 2024.”

LiveWorld is publishing concurrent with this quarterly financial report a business review which covers its vision, business model, solutions, and investment growth strategies. The report is available for download here.

“We are looking to set a foundation for improved growth by unlocking the true power of social media for our clients with an integrated set of solutions across proactive compliance, dynamic engagement, and strategic insight,” added Peter Friedman, Chairman & CEO, LiveWorld. “As we look to expand our core business in the pharma market, we are excited to expand our board of directors with the knowledge and expertise of seasoned industry executives Helen Chang and Jennifer Sherak.”

Financial Review for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024

Total revenues were approximately $2.6 million for the three months, as compared to approximately $2.7 million in total revenues reported for the same period in 2023. This was a decrease of approximately $176,000 or 6% when compared to the three months of 2023. A portion of the reduced revenues was as a result of delays in obtaining completed contracts and purchase orders from clients, and we expect to see an increase in revenues in the second quarter as a result.

Including the investment based controlled losses, the company reported a net loss for the three months of approximately $498,000 or 20% of total revenues. This compares to net income of approximately $134,000 or 5% of total revenues reported for the three months of 2023.

The company finished the quarter with approximately $4.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared to approximately $4.6 million at the end of 2023.
