(TSX: BABY) (OTCQX: BABYF) (FSE: 0YL.F) ("Else" or the "Company"), today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

"We are rapidly expanding our market presence," commented, Hamutal Yitzhak, CEO of Else Nutrition. "Most notably, our toddler and kids products continue to gain traction as we add major retailers across North America. Specifically, we added several key accounts in the last few months, including Wegmans, HEB, Meijer, and 600 new Walmart U.S. stores, started selling our new Kids RTD line at Loblaws, Giant and Metro, and added Walmart's Canadian website, Walmart.ca. As a result, our revenue increased 23% to $2.6 million in the second quarter of 2024 and we achieved 88% and 111% sequential retail sales growth in the U.S. and Canada, respectively. We believe these results are a strong validation of the market demand for nutritious and healthy alternatives."

"We are also gaining traction in the market with our kids ready-to-drink (RTD) products, demonstrating its broad appeal. Since the launch, we have observed a rapid increase in sales, reflecting strong consumer demand and positive reception. The positive reviews and testimonials further attest to its quality and taste, enhancing our brand's reputation. In fact, our RTD products earned the prestigious Mom's Choice Award. The impressive market performance we are witnessing positions us for future growth and expansion."

"In addition, we recently announced that the Navy Exchange Service Command, or NEXCOM, has listed our full product line. The Navy Exchange offers a variety of goods and services to active military personnel, retirees, and certain civilians on Navy installations in the United States, overseas Navy bases, and aboard Navy ships. We are pleased to report that we have delivered the first shipment of our full range of products to NEXCOM's retail stores. We believe this agreement will serve as a foothold into broader military channels, providing those who serve and their families access to high-quality, nutritious options."

"Furthermore, during the first half of 2024, we moved our U.S. powder production to a new plant, cutting production cost by almost half, and moved to a new packaging partner that reduced our packaging costs and improved our product shelf-life. Over the next several months we plan to add another powder production and packaging facility in Europe that will offer additional cost savings and quality improvements. "
