Management Commentary

“We saw our 2025 revenues drop slightly when we compare to our 2024 revenues as our clients delt with the volatility and uncertainty of the current economy,” remarked David Houston, Chief Financial Officer, of LiveWorld. “While our revenues were down approximately 2% year-over-year we did improve our net income for the same period by over 376%. As we move into 2026, we will continue our investment in AI which will have an impact on the profits of the company. Finally, our clients have begun to expand their budgets with us again. Based on current bookings and forecasts we are cautiously optimistic our total revenues for 2026 will exceed our totals for 2025.”

“We have expanded our investment in AI products, announced our AI strategy and are steadily launching new AI based solutions,” said Peter Friedman, LiveWorld Chairman and CEO. “ Initial client response is positive and we expect these products to be the basis for revenue growth in the years to come.”
