Corporate Update & 2025 Outlook

13 March 2025 

GenIP Plc

("GenIP" or the "Company")

Corporate Update

GenIP plc, a technology business providing Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) services to help research organisations and corporations commercialise their innovations, is pleased to provide the following corporate update and outlook for the year ahead.

Highlights

● Significant Commercial Progress: Since the launch of GenAI enhanced services in September 2024, GenIP has secured Invention Evaluator orders (including prepaid advance orders for future drawdown) for over 450 analytical assessments and has completed two Vortechs executive hires with four new searches underway.

● Robust Order Pipeline: Following the launch of an extensive marketing campaign in December 2024, the Company has received a number of promising leads and believes the conversion of its current sales pipeline will lead to a step-change in order flow and revenue generation.

● Global Expansion: International interest in GenIP's solutions is growing. The Company has delivered Invention Evaluator reports to organisations in over 25 countries across six continents, and the pipeline continues to expand to new territories. Demonstrating the global appeal of its services, GenIP has significant bids in progress with two leading institutions in Asia following our participation in a major industry event in the region.

● Product Development: As a result of deep engagement with new and existing customers, GenIP is developing a new range of AI-enhanced solutions to serve the technology transfer market. It is intended that GenIP's new products will leverage the existing AI analytics infrastructure and complement current offering by meeting additional requirements of research organisations seeking to accelerate the commercialisation of their technological discoveries.

AUTM 2025 Annual Meeting

Building on recent event sponsorships in Asia and Latin America that led to new Invention Evaluator orders, GenIP sponsored and attended the AUTM Annual Meeting in the US in March 2025. AUTM is a leading global platform for advancing knowledge in Intellectual Property, Technology Transfer, and Innovation. GenIP connected with representatives of universities, research institutions, corporations, and investment firms and believes the event will result in additional orders.

2025 Outlook

GenIP is well-positioned to capitalise on the growing demand for AI-enhanced solutions in the technology transfer market. The Company has clear revenue visibility, a strong order book, and a growing sales pipeline. GenIP is actively collaborating with the industry to continuously improve its services and is pursuing the expansion of its offering with new products nearing their launch. Customers pay in advance for Invention Evaluator report orders, providing the Company with operating cash flow and future revenue visibility, with revenue recognised upon report production by GenIP and delivery to the client. Typically, prepayments are utilised approximately 50% within the first 12 months and the balance over the following 12-18 months. Historically, there was no time limit for utilisation of the prepaid reports. To accelerate the utilisation the Company has implemented new strategies including a fixed period during which the prepaid orders need to be used. Our expanding client base and the anticipated introduction of new products position the Company favourably for significant growth. GenIP retains ample financial flexibility to capitalise on emerging opportunities.

Since the last corporate update, GenIP has completed two executive search assignments and secured four new searches. The Directors anticipate increasing demand for Vortechs services as a result of the ongoing marketing efforts and the current prospective assignments being progressed.

Lord Willetts, Chairman of GenIP, commented:

"As Chairman of the Board, I'm delighted to see GenIP's solid commercial progress and global reach, which is a testament to the value our AI-enhanced solutions bring to the technology transfer market. The combination of sophisticated analytics with expert human insights has the potential to be a winning formula, providing support to universities and corporations in navigating the complexities of commercialising innovation. In a world where the pace of technological advancement is ever-increasing, GenIP is well-positioned to play a role in ensuring that the most promising discoveries reach their potential."
