KULR Reports Preliminary Second Quarter 2023
Financial Results, Anticipates Record Revenue with Over 300% YoY Growth
SAN DIEGO / GLOBENEWSWIRE / August 10, 2023 / KULR Technology
Group, Inc. (NYSE American: KULR) (the "Company" or "KULR"), a global leader in sustainable energy management,
today announced its unaudited preliminary financial results for the second quarter ending June 30, 2023.
Q2’23 Financial and Recent Operational Highlights:
| · | Revenue for the three months ended
June 30, 2023, is estimated to be $2.5 to $2.8 million, an estimated increase of over 300%, compared to $0.6 million in the same quarter
of the prior year. |
| · | Gross margin for the three months
ended June 30, 2023, is estimated to be in a range from high 30% to low 40%, compared with 28% in the same quarter of the prior year. |
| · | KULR was awarded an initial $1.13M U.S. Army contract to develop next generation high-energy battery packs employing the KULR ONE
Design Solutions (“K1-DS”) platform. KULR will utilize the K1-DS platform to fast track this new design through prototyping
phases and into manufacturing readiness for the U.S. Army’s advanced aviation applications. Development activities began at the
end of April 2023 and are slated to run through early 2024. Management believes this timeline sets a new standard for what could have
historically taken several years. |
| · | KULR partnered with a world leading provider of drone-powered package delivery services. KULR will leverage its K1-DS platform and
proprietary technology for the development of high-capacity lithium battery packs for use in last-mile delivery, which is the most expensive
and time-consuming part of the shipping process. |
| · | KULR received an additional development contract from a branch within the United States Armed Forces to develop high-energy battery
packs for uninterruptible power supplies to mobile command centers. This contract is another example of how the KULR ONE Design Solutions
platform offers KULR partners unique, comprehensive solutions that management believes result in the safest battery solutions for high
energy and demanding applications. |
| · | KULR provided safe
battery testing solutions to a top 5 global manufacturer in the electric vertical
take-off and landing (“eVTOL") sector. The tests are to be completed in the third
quarter of 2023 and will further advance eVTOL battery safety as federal regulators look
to put forward certification rules for the emerging eVTOL air taxi market. |
| · | KULR announced expansion of its SafeCASE™ product line for electric bikes and the overall consumer e-mobility market. KULR is
bringing to the consumer market the same patented technology it provides NASA to protect astronauts on the International Space Station
and manned space missions. With over 300 million e-bikes alone in use around the world today and growing at double-digit percentages,
the threat of battery related fires is real and growing. KULR is actively engaged in discussions with multi-family Homeowner Associations,
lawmakers, community leaders, as well as those that represent urban multi-story buildings to provide unique solutions to meet or exceed
current and anticipated regulations. |
“For the 4th straight quarter, KULR has posted record trailing
twelve months revenue. As the results indicate, we continue to satisfy growing customer demand from both within our existing customer
base and with new customers,” said KULR CFO Shawn Canter. “In the first half of 2023, our preliminary estimates suggest KULR
has already generated more revenue than all of 2022. As we head into the back half of 2023 and into 2024, we are upbeat regarding the
trends around KULR’s increasing revenue ramp, pipeline, and expanding margins.”
