SNAPS Holding Company (SNAPS), the major shareholder and a secured lender of BuildingIQ Group, continues to work diligently to ensure and protect its investment and they remain committed towards the growth of the company.

For the past 5 months, the company has been working closely with ASX through its legal advisors to actively engage in pursuing the opportunity to reinstate company's listing at the exchange.

On behalf of the Board, our due appreciation to the team at BuildingIQ for their collective contributions. While the financial results fell short of expectations, our continued focus on new client adoption, new technology development and transformation, enhancement of our operational efficiencies, cost containment and stringent cash flow management positions BuildingIQ well for future success.

Looking ahead, BuildingIQ will continue to focus on optimizing its cash flows and achieving financially astute growth. We will strengthen our position in current markets by leveraging partnerships to accelerate our business in North America. We will also continue to drive more of our services to existing clients while exploring new geographies.

Yours sincerely,

Sanjay Patel
