The Company’s combined revenue and government support income increased by 191% to $0.91 million for the first fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023, including revenue from sales of goods of $0.8 million, compared to $0 in the first fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2022. The increase in revenue is due to the acquisition of Intelligent Fingerprinting Ltd (“IFP”) in October 2022 and the launch of its Intelligent Fingerprinting Drug Screening System in the Asia-Pacific region via Intelligent Bio Solutions (APAC) Pty Ltd.

Net loss attributable to INBS for the first fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023 was $2.4 million, compared to a net loss of $1.2 million for the first fiscal quarter of the prior fiscal year.
