<p>Semler Scientific Chairman Eric Semler emphasized the ongoing bitcoin acquisition, which increases the value of the company for all stakeholders. Semler reassured the audience that the firm would maintain such purchases, using operational cash flow and proceeds from its at-the-market (ATM) offering program.&nbsp;</p>  
<p>The company also stated its intentions to seek other funding sources to purchase even more bitcoins in the future.</p>  
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-atm-stock-program-and-financial-results"><strong>ATM Stock Program and Financial Results</strong></h2>  
<p>Since its ATM stock sale program became effective on August 13, Semler Scientific has raised $2.5 million through the sale of 86,734 shares. The third quarter financial result demonstrated that the company has maintained a stable approach toward both Bitcoin plans and its health care segment.&nbsp;</p>  
<p>For the third quarter ending September 30, 2024, total net sales were $13.5 million, a 17% decrease from the year-earlier total of $16.3 million.

<p>Operating expenses, including costs of revenues, reached $8.4 million, a 16% reduction compared to $10 million in the prior year.
