"This message has been well received by the market, and we made strong progress during the second quarter in building awareness and appreciation for our technology, evolving our partnerships, and growing our qualified pipeline of customers, which today stands at more than $30 million and spans across several focus industries." "During the second quarter, we expanded our commercial partnership with D-Wave to speed up the development and delivery of advanced AI systems that combine traditional and quantum computing. D-Wave is a complimentary partner for us, and we believe this expansion of our collaborative engagement demonstrates the value of our AI offering, and specifically how we are able to bolster the capability of their cloud service to create more efficient and powerful AI models. In insurance, we collaborated with KPMG to significantly improve a leading global insurance firm's risk and compliance modeling. By using advanced AI and optimization techniques, we managed to reduce the time needed to run complex models by more than 1,000 times while still maintaining accuracy. Defense remains a compelling market for our technology, and we were proud to publish our research findings from the second phase of Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency ("DARPA") Quantum Benchmarking program. Alongside our project partners, we demonstrated how quantum computing can bring significant economic benefits by solving complex industrial problems faster and more efficiently. Further, our expertise in rapidly deploying AI solutions in challenging environments helped us to deepen our work with the DOD through the agreement we announced this week with USSOCOM to collaborate on AI-driven solutions that can enhance situational awareness, real-time decision-making and operational readiness. In telecom, our partnership with Tech Mahindra is enabling us to have conversations with their portfolio of service providers as we demonstrate how we can more accurately anticipate, predict, and respond to service disruptions and high-traffic events while optimizing network and operations management." "As we look ahead, we are excited by the robust level of dialogue we are having with prospective customers. We have seen significant growth in customer interest since the beginning of the year and especially in Q2, as evidenced by strong growth in our qualified pipeline in our target verticals. We are optimistic about an acceleration in our business and converting on this pipeline as we go through the second half of 2024 and beyond," concluded Savoie. Financial and Operating Results Revenues in Q2 2024 were $2.00 million, which compares to revenues of $1.43 million in Q2 2023. The period over period improvement primarily reflects an increase in software license deliveries. Gross margin of 36.0% in Q2 2024 compares with 19.7% in Q2 2023 as the Company continues to see advances in its ability to drive profitability with increases in scale. Operating loss of $7.37 million in Q2 2024 compares to an operating loss of $4.14 million in Q2 2023 as general and administrative expenses increased by $3.01 million. A significant portion of this change is due to one-time fees that resulted from the Company's Nasdaq public markets listing and the filing of a registration statement on Form S-1 in connection with the Company's equity line of credit ("ELOC"), which drove higher professional services fees. Net loss in Q2 2024 was $15.58 million versus $4.72 million in Q2 2023. Q2 2024 net loss was impacted by a non-cash charge of $8.23 million loss related to the fair value change of a forward purchase agreement derivative liability. Net cash used by operating activities in Q2 2024 was $6.11 million, which included $0.89 million in cash from working capital, and compares with $3.61 million used in Q2 2023. As of June 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents stood at $7.16 million, excluding restricted cash of $0.14 million. This compares with $7.25 million, excluding restricted cash of $0.14 million, at March 31, 2024. Zapata AI generated $6.06 million in cash from financing activities during Q2 2024, which was primarily comprised of $5.30 million raised via the issuance of common stock from the ELOC. Subsequent to Q2 2024-end, the company entered into an additional purchase agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC pursuant to which Lincoln Park has elected to purchase from the company, at the company's option, up to $10 million of shares of common stock subject to certain conditions. Conference call information Zapata AI will host a conference call today, August 14, 2024 at 8:30am ET to discuss its financial results and provide a business update. The conference call will be accessible live via a webcast on Zapata AI's investor relations site, which can be found at ir.zapata.ai, and a replay of the webcast will be made available shortly after the event's conclusion for one year. 1 Qualified pipeline figures are based on opportunities that 1) have a clearly identified budget, authority, need and timeline, 2) have progressed beyond the initial discovery stage and are typically in the proposal stage or later, and 3) are expected to close within the next 12 months.

HeartCore Reports Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results - HeartCore Enterprises (NASDAQ:HTCR)
NEW YORK and TOKYO, Aug. 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HeartCore Enterprises, Inc. HTCR ("HeartCore" or "the Company"), a leading enterprise software and consulting services company based in Tokyo, reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

"We are hopeful that this milestone marks the genesis of a second wave of Japanese IPOs, as the Go IPO pipeline continues to show promising developments. Currently, we have three to four clients scheduled to go public by the end of the year. These Go IPO deals are expected to be instrumental in our second-half performance, and with an optimistic outlook on the resurgence of Japanese IPOs, we anticipate that our Go IPO business will play a key role in driving profitable returns in the upcoming quarter." "With 20% organic growth this quarter, and 30% organic growth expected for 2024, our software division continues to remain a stable growth engine and reliable source of cash flow, serving as the lifeblood of HeartCore's business operations. In addition, our strategic partnerships with Hitachi Systems and INCUDATA Corp., two prominent Japanese IT companies, will further enhance and innovate our software offerings, which will play a vital role in maintaining our 90% plus customer retention rate and separating ourselves from competitors. I am very encouraged by every arm within our software umbrella, as each one is projected to be profitable and has proven to deliver immense value to clients. The next few quarters look extremely bright for HeartCore; we look forward to sharing additional positive news around our Go IPO initiatives and other general operational updates." Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results Revenues were $4.1 million compared to $5.1 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to an approximate 10% depreciation on the Japanese yen and a decrease in maintenance and supporting services, as the Company entered into a significant maintenance service contract with an important customer in 2023. Additionally, although the organic software business has grown by more than 20%, the Company's subsidiary, Sigmaways recognized losses within its business, and one of the Company's GO IPO clients has returned its fees after discovering that it could not go public. Gross profit decreased to $0.8 million compared to $1.5 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to the aforementioned reasons above. Operating expenses decreased to $2.3 million compared to $3.0 million in the same period last year. The improvement was primarily due to lower selling and general and administrative expenses. Net loss was about $2.2 million or $(0.09) per diluted share compared to a net loss of $1.0 million or $(0.04) per diluted share, in the same period last year. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $3.8 million compared to $1.0 million on December 31, 2023. Six-Months 2024 Financial Results Revenues were $9.1 million compared to $13.8 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to decreased revenues from Go IPO consulting services, as the Company received warrants from two IPO consulting customers who successfully listed on the Nasdaq in the same period last year, and a decrease in maintenance and supporting services, as the Company entered into a significant maintenance service contract with an important customer in 2023. Additionally, although the organic software business has grown by more than 20%, the Company's subsidiary, Sigmaways recognized losses within its business, and one of the Company's GO IPO clients has returned its fees after discovering that it could not go public. Gross profit was $2.8 million compared to $7.1 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to the aforementioned reasons above. Operating expenses decreased to $5.0 million compared to $6.3 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to lower selling and general and administrative expenses. Net loss was about $3.7 million or $(0.16) per diluted share compared to a net income of $0.8 million or $0.05 per diluted share, in the same period last year. About HeartCore Enterprises, Inc.
