"We continue to position BioHiTech for growth as we navigate through the uncertain business environment arising from the COVID-19 pandemic," stated Frank E. Celli, CEO of BioHiTech. "Our facility in Martinsburg achieved significant growth both sequentially and year over year and our digester business is poised for a substantial rebound in the second half of 2020 as Carnival has resumed its installation program. We have also expanded our business into high-level disinfection through our distribution agreement with Altapure and are pleased with the progress we are making in sales demonstrations and discussions for potential product deployments. We are confident that our new lease finance arrangement for the Altapure-AP4 machine with Crestmark and USA Funding will serve to enhance those efforts. While we still face challenges related to this uncertain environment that may intermittently affect our business, the recent infusion of equity capital has placed us on solid financial ground moving forward. We are also continuing to see improving business activity in our digester business as companies emerge from COVID-related business interruptions. As we move through the second half of 2020, we are focused on maintaining lean operations, growing our revenue streams, and seeking to opportunistically grow our business. We are confident that this strategy will enable us to achieve significant long-term value for our stockholders."

Essman, CFO of BioHiTech. "Now, having completed our financing, and with Carnival resuming its digester deployment coupled with the opportunities presented by our Altapure distribution business, we believe we are poised to forge a new growth track as we head toward 2021. We continue to make progress at our Martinsburg HEBioT facility despite certain business dislocations related to the COVID-19 pandemic and we are confident in our ability to reach planned capacity in the future. With our newly strengthened balance sheet, we believe we are in the best position in our corporate history to capitalize on the opportunities in front of us for the benefit of our company and its stockholders."
