Compliance with NYSE Guidelines on Audit Opinion

 

As previously disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was filed on May 15, 2024 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the audited financial statements contained an unqualified audit opinion from its independent registered public accounting firm that included an explanatory paragraph related to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. See further discussion in the footnotes to the Company’s financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F. This announcement is being made solely to comply with the NYSE American LLC Company Guide Section 610(b), which requires public announcement of the receipt of an audit opinion containing a going concern paragraph. This announcement does not represent any change or amendment to the Company’s financial statements or to its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

Stronger Balance Sheet

 

Following the filing of the Company’s 20-F and the recently announced warrant exercise, Genius Group management believes the Company’s cash management balance sheet improvement efforts are proving successful. Adrian Reese, Genius Group’s Chief Financial Officer, said “In the last six months, the company has been successful in paying in full its convertible note, completing a series of successful financing initiatives and clearing a considerable amount of contingent liabilities.”

 

Genius Group’s CEO, Roger Hamilton, added “As we execute our growth plan, we are increasing our communication and outreach to institutional investors, family offices and investment funds. With 2024 guidance of over $100 million in revenue and year-on-year growth of 50%, we believe we are now reaching a size that is attractive to more investors. We believe we have a strong position in the rapidly growing AI revolution, and have begun sharing our growth story through more virtual roadshows and investor conferences.”
