spk02: Thank you, Kat, and thank you, everyone, for joining us. I am pleased to welcome you to the Glimpse Group's third quarter fiscal year 2024 financial results investor call for our quarter-ended March 31, 2024. During this quarter, we made concrete and tangible strides that validate our strategic transition to focus on providing enterprise-scale spatial computing, cloud and AI-driven immersive recurring software solutions, or spatial core, as we'll refer to it internally, led by our subsidiary company, Brightline Interactive. We announced today that Brightline Interactive entered into a $4 million plus 12-month contract with the Department of Defense, DOD entity, for a spatial computing ecosystem integrating AI workflows and accelerated compute for a variety of defense use cases. The ecosystem will empower users to combine massive data sets and perform complex calculations to analyze and process spatial data in order to derive insight, make predictions, and perform calculations on one-for-one digital twins addressing challenges in infrastructure, maintenance, operations, training, and simulation. In parallel, we are in the process of securing several additional multi-million dollar spatial core contracts with multiple government, Department of Defense, and large enterprise customers. The short-term aggregate value of these contracts is in the $8 to $12 million range. While there is no guarantee that some or all of these will come to fruition, we anticipate that a good portion of these will close before calendar year-end with additional potential in the pipeline for calendar year 2025. Each one of these potential contracts has significant growth elements built into them that could lead to significant annual recurring software revenue after the initial engagement. We believe that spatial computing represents a transformative leap forward in how enterprises interact with the digital world. seamlessly integrating it with their physical surroundings. For example, this immersive technology enables us to create comprehensive digital tools that not only mirror complex real-world environments one-to-one, but also enhance our ability to interact, analyze, and make informed decisions with potentially transformative applications across industries including industrial, military, public sector, infrastructure, training, simulations, robotics, and many others. As discussed previously, we are working closely with some of the largest players in the tech industry, such as Nvidia and Microsoft, as well as with some of the leading hardware players in the state. We serve as an essential and innovative middleware, connecting their cloud and AI technologies and services with the needs of enterprises and organizations to facilitate immersive solutions and use cases at large scale. To illustrate, last week, our subsidiary Brightline Interactive, together with Fisium and NVIDIA, teamed up with the Geospatial Intelligence, GeoINT, symposium 2024 to introduce Brightline's Spatial Core, which uses AI workflows for complex computation on top of real-life datasets, enabling powerful, real-time, massive, data-driven digital twin and simulation applications. As we discussed in our last call, we expected our strategic transition to result in short-term reduction in revenue as we divested and shut down non-core operating assets while we reduced our expenses targeting other non-core opportunities. Our other GLEAMS subsidiary companies, Curio, Sector 5 Digital, Fortel Reality, and GLEAMS Learning continue to generate meaningful enterprise revenues including recently from SNAP, NHL, Galderma, Halliburton, and many others, and are cash flow neutral to positive from their internal operations. Looking forward, we expect revenues to be generally flat to up in the coming two quarters as we finalize our divestiture plans, and then we expect revenues to grow significantly in Q4 calendar year 2024 and continue to grow into 2025 as we start recognizing the revenues from the DOD entity contract we recently signed and the others we expect to follow. As Meydan will detail in his prepared remarks, given the development I detailed, we are positioned to reach cash flow profitability in the coming months. With that, I will now turn it over to Meydan Rothblum, Glimpses CFO and COO, to review the financial results. Meydan?
spk01: Thanks, Liron. I will limit my portion to a summary review of our financial results. A full breakdown is available in our 10-Q and press release that were filed after market close today. Please note that I'll refer to adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP measures. For calculation of adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP measures, please refer to the MD&A section of our 10-Q filing, which you can find on our website under SEC filing. Revenue for Q3 fiscal year 24 was approximately $1.9 million compared to approximately $3.67 million for Q3 fiscal year 24, a decrease of approximately 48%. Revenue for the nine months ended March 31st, 2024 was approximately $7.1 million compared to approximately $10.6 million for the nine months ended March 31st, 2023, a decrease of 33%. The decrease for both periods reflects our strategic shift to spatial computing, cloud, and AI-driven immersive software solutions, which has resulted in a turnover in our historical customer base and our divestiture of non-strategic assets. The gross margin for Q3 fiscal year 24 was approximately 70% compared to 67% for Q3 fiscal year 23. We expect our gross margins continue to remain in the 65 to 75 percent range. As previously discussed, we have made significant reductions in our operating cash expense base, as reflected by a 62 percent reduction in our operating expenses this quarter compared to the same quarter last year. Our operational cash break-even point is now at approximately $3 million revenue per quarter, or $12 million revenue annually. Adjusted EBITDA loss for Q3 fiscal year 24 was approximately $0.89 million compared to an EBITDA loss of approximately $1.13 million in Q3 fiscal year 23. Theoretically applying Q3 fiscal year 23 revenue, which we believe is achievable again, would have resulted in a solidly cash flow positive quarter this quarter. Given our current level of revenues and subject to the signing of some of the contracts Liron mentioned, we expect to be cash flow positive from our operations commencing in September of 2024 and onwards. In such a scenario, given our current cash balance, we expect to be self-sufficient without needing any external funding. As of March 31st, 2024, the company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately 4.3 million. The company has no outstanding corporate debt or preferred equity obligations. I'd now like to pass it back to Leroy for some closing remarks, after which we will begin our Q&A session.
spk02: Thank you, Redan. Over the last couple of quarters, we have executed on the strategic transition plan we have outlined. This morning, we reached the first food of this execution. Over the coming months, we expect to make additional strong progress on our special core initiative and see significant progress, which we hope to publicly share with you. I thank you all for your interest and support of the GLEAMS Group, and now I'll turn the call back over to the operator to take some questions. Cass?
