XR Immersive Technologies Reports 2023 Q2 Financial Results

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 06, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — XR Immersive Tech Inc. (“Immersive Tech”, or the “Company”) (CSE: VRAR) (FSE:79W) (OTCQB: FNTTF), an industry leader in Social Entertainment, AI, VR and AR content and experiences, announces it has filed its condensed interim consolidated financial statements and Interim Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) for the three- and six-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Business Update

In the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company wound down its Uncontained business with the final project concluding in the period. The primary focus of the consolidated entity is the Synthesis VR (“SVR”) business moving forward.

The Synthesis VR software platform is one of the largest VR out of home entertainment marketplace for games, educational and training experiences worldwide. Synthesis has over 450 VR arcades globally and a market of over 400+ VR games.

• The companies focus is to build leading software and distribution capabilities that will establish its accelerated growth in the fast growing $140 Billion VR/AR market (see PwC market analysis here)
• The SVR software engine provides everything the modern VR arcade and Family Entertainment Center needs to power its VR experiences, a vital component of many locations internationally
• SVR is the only platform that supports Free Roam, Room-Scale, and Android-based tetherless Virtual Reality entertainment, a Gold Standard for VR arcade operators
• SVR provides over 400 Games and other experiences available through its extensive store catalog
• SVR supports over 450 entertainment center clients with locations across Europe, North America, India, South East Asia and Latin America
• SVR software platform manages all guest bookings, payment processing, game licensing which supports multiple billing options such as pay per minute, monthly and a combination of both, selfserve in headset game launcher, membership & player tracking, leaderboards, that include email offers directly targeted to the client and many more client friendly offerings SVR, in addition to the entertainment market, also provides educational content to locations that want to diversify from the entertainment market.
• SVR also provides Education, Training and R&D services in the Enterprise sector

Current SVR Developments:

• New software updates to improve the SVR platform.
• New SVR content store page
• Building out VR MDM (Mobile-Device-Management) services for Corporate/Enterprise customers: Currently adapting our services to be offered as SaaS on AWS Marketplace
• Investing in Developing SVR proprietary content
• Establishing SVR as a Publisher
• SVR is developing an RSVP system that allows VR arcade players to create AI Avatars
• Building out VR Education, Training and R&D Library, it is much safer to train professionals in the healthcare industry, architecture , automation and aircraft design and many others. It is much cheaper to use VR than real-life test fields.
• Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications for SVR and our partners. When it comes to LBVR studios, AI can be used to generate worlds and relatively random environments. This increases the replayability value and the world generation cost can be significantly reduced. It makes even more sense for XR games that use the camera’s passthrough mode to add virtual elements to your actual environment. AI could better recognize the environment and generate obstacles and maps intact with your physical environment. This can be further improved by using asset generation through a more human-like AI. It has a similar use case for enterprise training and education. Developing a quality and detailed VR experience takes a lot of effort, AI is light-speeding the process.

Revenue

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $356,142 compared to $525,004 for the six months ended June 30,2022. The decrease in revenue is due to the cessation of legacy operations of the Company.

Cost of Goods Sold
