FacePhi: quarterlies, annuals, regulatory actions

May 15, 2024 – South Korea-based software conglomerate Hancom has become the second-largest shareholder in Spain-based Facephi with the completion of a €5 million (roughly $5.4 million) investment. The deal opens a direct pathway for Facephi to sell its biometric identity verification services in the Asia-Pacific region, according to the announcement.
The deal, originally announced in March, gives Hancom exclusive distribution rights for Facephi’s selfie biometrics and identity technologies in APAC.
Hancom now owns more than Facephi CEO Javier Mira’s 5.61 percent, but less than Nice & Green’s 17.56 percent.
Facephi updates 2023 results after audit
May 5, 2024 – Facephi has restated its turnover for the 2023 financial year following an extensive third-party audit.

Restated EBITDA for 2023 was positive €670,000 ($721,000), rather than the loss reported earlier.
The changes amount to a positive reflection on FacePhi’s biometric software pipeline for early-2024, according to the announcement.
