reAlpha Tech Corp. (“reAlpha,” the “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 reports financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

“reAlpha made significant strides in the first quarter of 2024 with the commercial launch of our AI-powered platform, GENA,” said Giri Devanur, Chief Executive Officer of reAlpha. “This launch demonstrates our commitment to leveraging innovative AI technology to drive change in the real estate industry. We remain focused on executing our strategic initiatives, commercializing our technologies, and pursuing growth opportunities in the fragmented proptech space, which is ripe for innovation. We are excited about the path ahead and look forward to sharing our progress and developments in the coming quarters as we continue to capitalize on these opportunities,” concluded Mr. Devanur.

Financial Results

Revenues were $20,426 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $111,451 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. 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 directly from, or services related to, our technologies. The decrease in revenues during the period was attributable to lower rental revenue due to the disposal of our rental properties during and subsequent to fiscal year 2023 as a result of our business strategy shift to focus on the commercialization of our AI technologies, as well as lower platform services revenue as a result of the sale of myAlphie.

We had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $4.84 million as of March 31, 2024, and approximately $6.46 million as of December 31, 2023.

Net loss was $1,419,045 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $864,913 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase in net loss during the period was mainly attributable to increases in wages, professional and legal fees, and amortization of a commitment fee in the form of equity.

Adjusted EBITDA was $(1,336,790) for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $(775,098) for the three months ended March 31, 2023. 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 and certain charges or gains resulting from non-recurring events, if any. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, we did not have any non-recurring events.
