Management Commentary
“For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we saw a slight dip in total revenues when compared to the same period in 2024. The uncertainty of the current business environment has our clients pulling back on discretionary spending in 2025. We anticipate this to continue for the foreseeable future until we start to see the market stabilize,” commented David Houston, Chief Financial Officer of LiveWorld. “We saw a small loss in the second quarter of $92,000. These losses and any future losses are a result of our continued focused investment in AI in 2025 and 2026.”
“We continue to invest in AI in three ways: how we operate our business, across all of the solutions we offer our clients, and in next generation AI software-based products,” said Peter Friedman, Chairman and CEO of LiveWorld. “Our intent is to not only improve the efficiency and value of our current offerings but to introduce entirely new AI-based products and revenue streams for future growth.”
The company also announced that its creative digital marketing campaign for Chiesi Global Rare Diseases has been named a finalist in the 2025 MM+M Awards in the Organic Social Media category for disease awareness elevating Chiesi GRD positioning, strengthening patient ties, and building community connections.
