Management Commentary
KULR Chief Financial Officer Shawn Canter noted, “We are proud to announce another record revenue quarter so meaningfully the result of our entire team’s focus and dedication. The announced license agreement for KULR Xero Vibe represents a new business model that can expand the ways we grow KULR. Our recent first “Open House” in Webster was a smashing success with many customers, potential customers, insurance, fire – including the FDNY - and hazmat experts, public officials, and investors in attendance. I think we will do more of those types of events to invite more and more people to see and experience the mission critical nature of our work for so many applications.”
Mr. Canter continued, “The work we do is really part of the “picks and shovels” of the space economy, the broader adoption of electrification of the global aerospace and defense sectors, and the evolution toward more and more electric applications like planes, drones, vehicles, industrial and commercial equipment. Who isn’t going to need safe, reliable, clean power in often inconvenient environments?”
With regards to KULR Xero Vibe, Mr. Canter offered, “By meaningfully improving cooling efficiency, KXV is addressing the high operating costs of high intensity, power hungry applications like AI and crypto currency servers. Again, our proprietary technology offers a variety of sectors critical “picks and shovels” for them to continue to grow and flourish. Our goal is to have KXV technology used across these and other use cases to lower their operating costs and thus promote their expanded use.”
