Lifecore Biomedical Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year End 2024 Financial Results and Provides Corporate Update

-- Recorded Revenues of $128.3 million for Fiscal 2024; Year-Over-Year Increase of 24.2% --
-- High Value Pipeline Continues to Advance Toward Commercialization --
-- State-of-the-Art Technology Enhancements to Expand Capacity
and New Business Opportunities –

Conference Call Tomorrow Morning at 8:30 a.m. ET

CHASKA, Minn., August 26, 2024 -- Lifecore Biomedical, Inc. (NASDAQ: LFCR) (“Lifecore” or the “Company”), a fully integrated contract development and manufacturing organization (“CDMO”), today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year of fiscal 2024.

Highlights from Fiscal 2024:

“Operationally, fiscal 2024 was a strong year for the Company as we recorded $128.3 million in revenues, representing a 24.2% increase over fiscal 2023,” stated Paul Josephs, president & chief executive officer of Lifecore. “We are exceedingly pleased with this performance and top line growth. I am proud of the progress made by the Company to overcome its recent challenges and very pleased to have submitted our fiscal 2024 10-K today, bringing us current with all SEC filings.

“During my first 90 days as chief executive officer, I have been evaluating all aspects of the organization in an effort to identify opportunities to optimize processes, reduce operating expenses, and enhance productivity. Following my initial operational review, it was clear that the Company’s headcount was oversized for its current business. While such decisions are difficult, a reduction in force was required, which we executed in July. We are now confident that we are right sized for our current pipeline as well as near-term growth. With respect to capabilities and capacity, the Company currently expects its new 5-head isolator filler to be GMP-ready in September.

“Looking ahead, a primary focus is the financial growth of our organization. We expect to accomplish this by focusing on three key areas (1) maximizing our base business; (2) advancing our development portfolio towards commercialization; and, (3) attracting new business spanning our complete range of capabilities and services. We believe we can accomplish this while maintaining superior support for the growing needs of our existing customers. Leaning on my extensive experience building and executing commercial strategies at multiple CDMO’s, I am leading the team in refining our business development strategy to expand our visibility, broaden our outreach, and ultimately, increase our new project pipeline. We believe Lifecore’s key differentiators are the robustness of our quality management system, our decades of proven experience, and our unique ability to handle complex and viscous formulations. I’m confident that, as other potential partners become aware of these capabilities, they will discover the exceptional value that we offer to them and their patients.”

Consolidated Fiscal Fourth Quarter 2024 Results

(Unaudited and in thousands, except per-share data)Three Months EndedChange
May 26, 2024May 28, 2023Amount%
Revenues$37,886 $31,146 $6,740 21.6 %
Gross profit$17,272 $7,779 $9,493 122.0 %
Net loss from continuing operations$(7,085)$(36,998)$29,913 80.9 %
Adjusted EBITDA$10,412 $3,717 $6,695 180.1 %

Fiscal fourth quarter 2024 revenue increased $6.7 million year-over-year to $37.9 million, representing an increase of 21.6% as compared to the prior year period. Revenue growth was primarily driven by a 21.2% increase in its hyaluronic acid (HA) raw material manufacturing (fermentation) business and a 21.8% increase in its CDMO business. The increase in HA raw material manufacturing revenue was primarily due to the higher demand in the current year from existing customers. The increase in CDMO revenues was primarily due to an increase in development services, a new commercial launch in the second quarter of fiscal 2024 and the positive impact of revised contract negotiations on legacy products.

Fiscal fourth quarter 2024 gross profit increased $9.5 million or 122.0% to $17.3 million, as compared to $7.8 million in the prior year period, primarily due to a favorable volume increase, resulting in an increase in gross profits of $1.5 million and favorable rate increases, resulting in an increase of gross profits of $8.0 million. The favorable rate increase was primarily due to a favorable revenue mix with stronger development services revenue and the positive impact of revised contract negotiations on legacy commercial products. This resulted in a gross profit margin improvement by 2060 basis points (“bps”) to 45.6%, as compared to 25.0% in the prior year period.

Fiscal fourth quarter 2024 net loss from continuing operations was $7.1 million, compared to net loss from continuing operations of $37.0 million in the prior year period, which included a loss on debt extinguishment of $23.7 million due to the refinancing of the term debt to a related party. Adjusted EBITDA increased $6.7 million or 180.1% to $10.4 million, which excludes $1.6 million of stock-based compensation expense, as compared to adjusted EBITDA of $3.7 million in the prior year period, which excludes $0.8 million of stock-based compensation expense.

Consolidated Full Year Fiscal 2024 Results

(Unaudited and in thousands, except per-share data)Twelve Months EndedChange
May 26, 2024May 28, 2023Amount%
Revenues$128,261 $103,269 $24,992 24.2 %
Gross profit$41,850 $27,985 $13,865 49.5 %
Net income (loss) from continuing operations$9,331 $(64,236)$73,567 (114.5)%
Adjusted EBITDA$20,206 $11,091 $9,115 82.2 %

Full year fiscal 2024 revenue increased $25.0 million year-over-year to $128.3 million, representing an increase of 24.2% as compared to the prior year period. Revenue growth was primarily driven by a 18% increase in its HA raw material manufacturing (fermentation) business and a 27% increase in its CDMO business. The increase in HA raw material manufacturing revenue was primarily due to the higher demand in the current year from existing customers. The increase in CDMO revenues was primarily due to the previously announced commercialization of a new product in the second quarter of fiscal 2024, increased demand from existing customers, price increases from amended commercial agreements at the beginning of the calendar year and a modest increase in development services projects.


Full year fiscal 2024 gross profit increased $13.9 million or 49.5% to $41.9 million, as compared to $28.0 million in the prior year period, primarily due to increased revenues resulting in a favorable volume variance of $6.8 million and favorable rate variance of $7.1 million due to a favorable revenue mix and adjustments to write down inventories to their net realizable value in the comparable periods. Gross profit margin increased 553 basis points to 32.6% in fiscal year 2024 from 27.1% in the prior year period primarily due to a favorable revenue mix, increased customer pricing on amended commercial agreements and an increase due to adjustments to write down inventories to their net realizable value in the prior year comparable period.



Full year fiscal 2024 net income from continuing operations was $9.3 million, which reflected a favorable $39.5 million non-cash fair market value adjustment to the debt derivative liability which is included in other income, compared to net loss from continuing operations of $64.2 million in the prior year period, which included a loss on debt refinancing of $23.7 million. Adjusted EBITDA increased $9.1 million or 82.2% to $20.2 million, which excluded $6.2 million of stock-based compensation expense, as compared to adjusted EBITDA of $11.1 million in the prior year period, which excluded $3.6 million of stock-based compensation expense.


Fiscal 2024 Cash Flow & Balance Sheet

Cash used in operating activities was $0.2 million for the fiscal year ended May 26, 2024 compared to $17.4 million used in the prior fiscal year ended May 28, 2023.

Cash provided by financing activities was $7.5 million for the fiscal year ended May 26, 2024 compared to $39.7 million provided in the prior year period, which included $42.9 million of proceeds from preferred and common stock issuances.

•Revenue: Expected to be in the range of $126.5 million to $130 million
•Adjusted EBITDA: Expected to be in the range of $19 million to $21 million. As noted above, the Company has changed its presentation of adjusted EBITDA to exclude stock-based compensation expense, which is anticipated to be in the range of $9.0 million to $10.0 million during fiscal 2025.
