ABU DHABI: Presight AI Holding PLC today announced its fiscal year 2023 (FY2023) results, which showed strong, consistent revenue growth with revenues up 14.7 percent (+AED 228.6 million) to AED1,780.6 million compared with FY2022.

The net profit margin in FY2023 was 32.0%.

In a statement today, the company said that the financial results were underpinned by major domestic project deployments throughout the year and more so in the last quarter of the year which lifted Q4’23 revenues by AED713.5 million, an increase of 23.3 percent over Q4’22. In the same period Q4’23 net profit (AED300.6 million) marginally increased by 0.4% over Q4’22. The Q4’23 net profit margin was 42.1%.

The company balance sheet remains highly liquid and debt free, providing significant financial flexibility to fund its operations and fuel future growth. In FY2023 AED336.6 million of cash was generated from operations.

Thomas Pramotedham, Chief Executive Officer of Presight, commented, “In this transformational year which saw us list on ADX (in March 2023), we can be very proud of the FY2023 results. They demonstrate strong and sequential organic growth which is delivering sector-leading profitability. The 2023 numbers are backed by an additional AED1.56Bn of multi-year revenue contracts which will support strong future revenue and cash flow. The health of our balance sheet gives us the potential to accelerate our growth through future capital deployments which could include targeted geographical expansion, new product development to future proof growth, or value-adding acquisitions.

“Presight’s use of AI and big data technologies to provide mission critical support helped to entrench our partnerships with existing customers in the UAE such as the National Emergency Crisis and Disaster Management Authority (NCEMA), as well as demonstrating our cutting-edge technologies at work to prospective customers.

“Internationally, Presight expanded its geographical reach and presence through strategic partnerships and joint ventures with our partners in Central Asia, Southeast Asia, and the United States. These partnerships are expected to be instrumental in driving international growth in FY2024 and beyond.

“We can see that Generative AI (GAI), within the framework of enterprise AI, offers further growth opportunities, and is a key focus of our innovation and developmental efforts. Having completed early beta releases in 2023, we now look forward to launching a suite of GAI solutions in 2024.’’

Pramotedham added: “Our FY2023 financial performance has created a solid foundation for future expansion, and I remain confident that Presight will continue to create value for all its stakeholders in both the near and medium term.”
