Being AI Releases Unaudited FY25 Results
Being AI Limited (NZX: BAI) today announced its preliminary unaudited financial results for the fiscal
year to 31 March 2025 (FY25). The Company reported a poor financial performance, marked by a net
loss before tax of -$11.98 million, reflecting the significant challenges it has faced.
Summary of Key Financial Results
(Figures are quoted in NZ dollars)
Revenue: $40.10 million
Operating EBITDA loss: $3.94 million
Net loss before tax: $11.98 million
Financial Overview
For FY25, Being AI Limited recorded revenue of $40.10 million. Despite efforts to streamline
operations and raise external capital to fund growth, the Company delivered an operating EBITDA
loss of $3.94 million. The net loss before tax amounted to $11.98 million, underscoring the financial
difficulties encountered throughout the year.
Goodwill impairments: Project Treehouse
1
$5.96 million; Filecorp $500,000
Shareholders’ equity: -$6.99 million
Provision: $1.1million against the $2 million Excalibur loan
While Send Global continued to perform well in FY25, its contributions were insuƯicient to oƯset the
overheads incurred by the wider Being AI group.
A significant factor contributing to the net loss was the goodwill impairment relating to Project
Treehouse an, amounting to $5.96 million. Project Treehouse failed to secure external funding or
implement pilot customer programmes. After a strategic review by the new Being AI Board, it was
1
In this document Project Treehouse refers to Agentic Commerce as well as the Company’s other AI initiatives
determined that the project would continue to incur negative cash flows. Consequently, Project
Treehouse was shut down on 16 May 2025, to prevent further losses and protect shareholder value.
Under NZ IAS 36, each year Being AI is required to assess the carrying value of certain assets in the
Company’s balance sheet. Analysis of Filecorp’s forecast through to 31 March 2030 indicates that its
goodwill asset should be impaired by $500,000.
In addition to the goodwill impairment, Being AI Limited has made a provision of $1.1 million against
the $2 million loan extended to Excalibur, an entity owned by Sean Joyce, Being AI’s original
chairman.
This provision has been made due to uncertainties regarding the value of the security backing the
loan. The security consists of Being AI shares and Arria NLG shares owned by Excalibur. The value of
Being AI shares has declined, and the Company has been unable to determine the current market
value of the Arria NLG shares. The loan is scheduled for repayment at the end of 2028, and Being AI
Limited will continue to pursue all opportunities to collect the full amount.
The impact of the goodwill impairments, the provision against the Excalibur loan, and the net loss,
has resulted in shareholders' equity turning negative, standing at -$6.99 million. This decline in equity
reflects the significant financial strain the Company has experienced over the past fiscal year.
Operational Challenges
The financial year was marked by significant operational challenges, including multiple changes in
directors and substantial cash burn to support Project Treehouse. These factors contributed to the
Company's financial difficulties and operational inefficiencies. Additionally, Being AI Limited was
placed in a trading halt for a period of over eight weeks until new independent directors could be
appointed, further impacting its ability to operate effectively.
Being Consulting , Being Ventures and Tymestack
Being Consultants failed to make any substantive progress towards its revenue budgets in the eight
months to November 2024. It was subsequently sold to 2384 LP, as previously disclosed in the half
year results released on 30 September 2024.
Being Ventures did not identify suitable investment opportunities aligned with its original goal of
transforming legacy businesses through AI, and therefore has not contributed to the Company's
financial performance.
The Company recognised a full $240,000 impairment of its investment in Tymestack in September
2024, as outlined in the half year results. On 31 October 2024 the parties agreed a variation to the
original agreements in which the Company’s investment in Tymestack was changed to a 10%
shareholding with no further obligation to provide additional funding or services.
Strategic Review and Post-Balance Date Developments
Since the balance date, the new Board has focused on a strategic review aimed at stabilising the
Company's financial position. To date, key actions taken include significantly reducing personnel,
implementing operational cost savings, closing Project Treehouse (as noted above), divesting Being
Education, and stemming operational losses. This strategic review is ongoing.
Being Education was divested to Crimson Education Group, a strategic move that eliminated $3.9
million in Being AI group debt owed to Wilshire Treasury, along with a portion of trading liabilities.
Additionally, Being AI secured $500,000 of funding from Wilshire Treasury, which was used to retire
bank debt, further improving the company's financial position.
Strategic Outlook
The Board of Directors’ strategic review is now focused on the future of the Being AI group including
its management, assets and remaining entity, Send Global. Further market announcements are
anticipated in due course.
For further details, please refer to the unaudited financial statements accompanying this
announcement. Financial statements are currently undergoing the audit process and BAI is not
aware of any likely qualifications. The Company’s annual report, including its audited financial
statements, will be available on the Being AI Limited website and through the NZX platform by 30 June
2025.

Changes in Material Accounting Policies
There have been no changes in the accounting policies and methods of computation used in preparing
the consolidated financial statements compared to those used in preparing the audited consolidated
financial statements for the 12 months ended 31 March 2024, except for the new accounting policies
applied that have been detailed below.
Share based payment transactions
The fair value of share options issued to directors, employees and consultants is determined at the grant
date and is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of
the share options that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity.
At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of share options
expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in profit or loss
such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the
share based payments reserve.
Investments in associates
An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary
nor an interest in a joint venture. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and
operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.
The results and assets and liabilities of associates are incorporated in these financial statements using
the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, an investment in an associate is recognised
initially in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise
the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate. When the
Group’s share of losses of an associate exceeds the Group’s interest in that associate, the Group
discontinues recognising its share of further losses. Additional losses are recognised only to the extent
that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the
associate.
When a group entity transacts with an associate, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with
the associate are recognised in the Group’s consolidated financial statements only to the extent of
interests in the associate that are not related to the Group.
Going concern
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that
the Group has the intention and ability to continue its operations for the foreseeable future.
The Group incurred an after-tax loss of $10.2 million in the year 31 March 2025 (2024: $1.1 million loss).
The Group’s net cash outflows from operating activities was $3.3 million (2024: $1.4 million cash inflow).
At the reporting date the Group had cash of $0.4 million (2024: $2.2 million), negative working capital of
$4.6 million (2024: $12.6 million negative) and net liabilities of $7.0 million (2024: net assets of $3.8
million). Liabilities included borrowings of $16.2 million (2024: $5.9 million) of which $3.8 million were
current (2024: $5.9 million) and $12.4 million were non-current (2024: $nil).
The net loss for the year included the following one-off items: impairments of assets of $7.7 million and a
gain on disposal of subsidiary of $806,000.
Subsequent to the reporting date the Company divested its education group, Being Education. The
divestment eliminated the education segment’s debt of $3.9 million, significantly strengthening the
Group’s balance sheet.

Also subsequent to the reporting date the Board decided to shut down its artificial intelligence initiative,
Project Treehouse.
The Group’s remaining operating businesses, following this divestment of the education group and
closure of Project Treehouse, are profitable and are forecast to generate positive cash flows. The Group
expects reduced corporate overheads with the reduced size of the remaining operations.
The Group forecasts it will be compliant with all bank covenants during the next 12 months.
The considered view of the Board is that, after making due enquiries and considering relevant factors,
there is a reasonable expectation that the Group will have access to adequate resources and
commitments from its borrowers, that will enable it to meet its financial obligations for the foreseeable
future.
For this reason, the Board considers the adoption of the going concern basis in preparing the
consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025 to be appropriate. The Board has
reached this conclusion having regard to circumstances which it considers likely to affect the Group
during the period of at least one year from the date of these consolidated financial statements, and to
circumstances which it considers will occur after that date which will affect the validity of the going
concern basis
