XTRACT ONE TECH INC - XTRAF STOCK NEWS

Xtract One Technologies (TSX: XTRA)(OTCQX: XTRAF) has launched Xtract One Gateway, a new AI-driven security solution, at GSX 2024 in Orlando. The Gateway is designed for medium-clutter environments where visitors often carry larger personal items. It features:

- Advanced bi-directional configurable screening
- Proprietary sensors for precise weapons detection
- Ability to distinguish between weapons and everyday items like laptops
- Seamless passage through checkpoints without separate bag searches

The system aims to balance powerful threat classification with efficient flow of individuals, enhancing safety and operational efficiency. It's particularly suited for schools, convention centers, workplaces, and manufacturing facilities. CEO Peter Evans will host a webinar on September 25, 2024, to review Gateway's features.

Xtract One Technologies announced that its AI-powered SmartGateway system has successfully completed an operational test and evaluation by National Safe Skies Alliance at Oakland International Airport. Safe Skies, an independent, FAA-funded organization, evaluated SmartGateway's effectiveness under active airport conditions, confirming its ability to enhance security without compromising passenger comfort. This system replaces traditional metal detectors with sensors that discreetly and accurately detect weapons and prohibited items, expediting the screening process. The evaluation report, published in May 2024, is available to qualified airport personnel.

Xtract One Technologies (TSX: XTRA, OTCQX: XTRAF) has been chosen to secure entrances at Amerant Bank Arena, Baptist Health IcePlex, and FTL War Memorial. These venues, associated with the NHL’s Florida Panthers, will deploy the AI-driven SmartGateway over the next year to enhance security and improve the patron experience. Amerant Bank Arena, Florida’s largest indoor arena, attracts 30 million visitors annually. The Panthers' COO highlighted the collaboration's goal to set new standards in fan safety and enjoyment. Xtract One's CEO emphasized the focus on creating a seamless, protected environment.

Xtract One has reported record third-quarter fiscal 2024 results, with revenue reaching $4.7 million, up from $0.9 million in the same period last year. This significant increase is attributed to new customer wins and higher installations. Gross margin for the platform segment remained steady at 60%. The company also announced $9.5 million in new bookings, a $13.8 million platform contractual backlog, and $12.8 million in pending agreements. Xtract One raised $9.8 million through a public equity offering and private placement, including participation from MSG Sports. The company received the DHS SAFETY Act Designation, enabling sales to major organizations like the NHL and MLB. Despite a comprehensive loss of $2.7 million, this marks an improvement from last year's loss of $3.8 million, driven by higher platform revenue and controlled operating expenses.
