Inteliqo Limited: Chairman’s Report for the period ended 30 September 2023
Introduction
I am pleased to present the Chairman's statement, highlighting the progress and achievements of Inteliqo Limited (the "Company") and its subsidiary (together the “Group”) for the 6 months to 30 September 2023. Under the leadership of our CEO, Joseph Hill, our dedicated team has made significant strides in positioning the Company for success in the technology market.
Business Overview and Objectives
Inteliqo is a technology company focused on delivering sales, marketing and distribution services to two prominent technology brands through long-term agreements with Ipedia and Langaroo.
Ipedia (https://ipedia.co)
The Ipedia iQ product is a smart translation earphone (earbuds) system offering integrated real-time speech translation in 130 languages, built-in smart assist (Google and Siri), multiple built-in microphones, and high-definition sound.
The Company's principal activity is to market, sell, and distribute Ipedia technology products by appointing resellers in defined territories globally. The Company generates income from the sales of these products; sharing a proportion of such income with the product owners under the terms of its distribution agreements.
Last year, Inteliqo appointed an exclusive reseller for the promotion and sale of Ipedia products in nine territories. The agreements carry an initial five-year term, and we expect the first orders from these agreements to start during Q4 of 2023.
The quantum and timing of these orders are not guaranteed.
Langaroo (https://langaroo.co)
Langaroo is a mobile application that enables users to understand, speak, message, and share information across over 130 languages. It serves as the ultimate translation buddy, facilitating seamless communication for users in various scenarios.
Inteliqo secured an exclusive sales and marketing agreement for the Langaroo App, solidifying our commitment to driving its global adoption. This agreement enables us to distribute the Langaroo App effectively and leverage its impressive features across various industries and regions.
The Company generates income from the sales of subscriptions or territory licence agreements, benefiting from a proportion of revenue as defined in a revenue share agreement.
Financial Results
The Group's financial results to 30 September 2023 reflect the commencement of sales leading to a profit of $185k, with basic earnings per share from continuing activities of $0.002. These figures reflect the early stages of our operations and we remain focused on executing our strategic initiatives and achieving sustainable growth.
Outlook and Future Prospects
The Group is now operating profitably, with positive cash flows and this promising result aligns with our commitment to delivering value to our shareholders.
Looking ahead, we are optimistic about the Group's prospects. The Langaroo App is now generating sales from its Beta launch and Full Application is scheduled for release early in Q1 2024.
Coupled with the recent attainment of Exclusive Reseller Agreements for Ipedia, we are confident that the Company will operate profitably this year.
Thank you for your continued support and trust in our vision. We are committed to driving Inteliqo's growth and creating value for all stakeholders.

There are no accounting pronouncements which have become effective from 1 April 2023 that have a significant impact on the Financial Statements.
When preparing the Financial Statements, management undertakes a number of judgements, estimates and assumptions about recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The actual results may differ from the judgements, estimates and assumptions made by management, and will seldom equal the estimated results.
The judgements, estimates and assumptions applied in the Financial Statements, including the key sources of estimation uncertainty, were the same as those applied in the Group’s last audited annual financial statements for the period ended 31 March 2023.
Earnings per share, both the basic and diluted earnings per share, have been calculated using the profit attributable to shareholders of the Company as the numerator, ie no adjustments to profit were necessary.

2023 | 2022 | ||
USD | USD | ||
