Xiao-I Corporation Reports Unaudited Full Year 2022 Financial Results

- Net revenues grow 48% to All-Time High of US$48.2 million

Conference call at 8:00 a.m. U.S. Eastern Time (8:00 p.m. China Time) to discuss results

SHANGHAI, China, April 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Xiao-I Corporation (“Xiao-I” or the “Company”), a leading cognitive artificial intelligence (“AI”) enterprise in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the full year ended December 31, 2022.

Full Year 2022 Financial Highlights

  • Net revenues increased 48% year over year to a record-high of US$48.2 million.
  • Sale of cloud platform products increased 364% year over year to US$25.7 million.
  • Sale of technology development service increased 78% year over year to US$16.4 million.
  • Gross profit increased 42% year over year to US$30.8 million.

Mr. Hui Yuan, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Xiao-I, commented, “Despite challenges and uncertainties, we nonetheless generated record revenue in 2022. Notably for this year, we successfully became a publicly traded company in the U.S. following an initial public offering in March. The proceeds of almost US$39 million added strength and flexibility for implementing our growth strategies.”

“We achieved significant progress by making record investments in AI technology R&D, improving our product and service capabilities, expanding our partnership ecosystem, and continuing our strong momentum. As we enter 2023, we are experiencing tailwinds from increased demand for our products and services due to macroeconomic recovery and greater recognition and interest in robotics and AI technology. We are confident that our advanced AI technology and commitment to our mission and strategies will enable us to meet the diverse user needs across broader industry verticals and capture sustainable growth in this expansive market.”

Recent Developments and Strategic Highlights:

  • Closing of Initial Public Offering: In March 2023, Xiao-I closed its initial public offering of 5,700,000 American Depositary Shares ("ADSs") at a price of US$6.8 per ADS for total proceeds of US$38.76 million. Each ADS represents one third of an ordinary share of the Company. Xiao-I’s ADSs are listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol “AIXI”.
  • Strategic Partnership with Chinadatapay: In April 2023, Xiao-I entered into a strategic partnership with Guizhou Chinadatapay Network Technology Co., Ltd. (“Chinadatapay”) to drive Xiao-I's growth as a global leader in cognitive intelligence by combining Xiao-I’s cognitive intelligence capabilities and Chinadatapay’s big data expertise.

Full Year 2022 Financial Results

Net Revenues
Net revenues were US$48.2 million in 2022, up 48% year over year from US$32.5 million in 2021. The increase was primarily due to the increased sales of SaaS model-based cloud platform products and technology development service.

By Revenue Type  
2022  2021 %
Change

YoY
 
Sale of cloud platform products $25,742,135 $5,550,959 364

Sale of hardware products  46,295  75,011 (38)
Total $48,184,958 $32,524,013 48 

Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues in 2022 was US$17.4 million, up 60% year over year from US$10.9 million in 2021, mainly driven by the increase of sales and the Company's expansion of product applications into certain new industries.

Gross Profit
Gross profit was US$30.8 million in 2022, up 42% year over year from US$21.6 million in 2021. Gross margin was 63.9% in 2022, compared to 66.5% in 2021. The decrease in gross margin was mainly due to the Company's expansion of product applications into certain new industries that initially had relatively lower margins before the applications matured.

Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses were US$33.9 million in 2022, representing an increase of 104% year over year from US$16.6 million in 2021. The increase was primarily due to the 347% increase in research and development expenses, offsetting the decreases in sales, marketing, general, and administrative expenses.

Income (Loss) from Operations
Loss from operations was US$3.1 million in 2022, compared to an income of US$5.0 million from operations in 2021.

Total Other Income (Loss)
Total other loss was US$2.2 million in 2022, compared to US$1.1 million in 2021, mainly due to increased interest expenses arising from loans.

Net Income (Loss)
Net loss was US$6.0 million in 2022, compared to a net income of US$3.4 million in 2021.

The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 herein have not been audited or reviewed by the Company’s independent registered accounting firm.
