Management Commentary

Ilan Sobel, CEO of BioHarvest Sciences, said: "The second quarter of 2025 was another strong quarter of operational execution, as we achieved our revenue guidance and advanced toward our goal of adjusted EBITDA breakeven in Q4 of this year. Results were driven by a combination of continued growth in both our core VINIA® capsule business and in recently launched "VINIA Inside" portfolio products. In addition, our CDMO business unit continues to increase its contribution to revenue growth as we recognize the dollars related to key milestone achievements with our customers. Our CDMO pipeline remains robust with multiple potential customers that we expect could convert in the next 6-9 months."

Looking ahead to the second half of 2025, the Company will launch three growth initiatives:

'Health Pros' Professional Affiliate Program - A new network of health practitioners, athletes, coaches and health influencers with significant social media followings aimed at expanding VINIA's reach and driving subscriber growth at lower acquisition costs, with a target of 300 of these "Health Pros" onboarded by year-end.
Electrolyte Drinks Entry - Launching VINIA® BloodFlow Hydration Solution in October 2025, the first electrolyte beverage powered by blood flow, featuring six flavors and targeting the $13B+ electrolyte hydration market.
AI-Enabled CDMO Discovery Phase - A new billable service combining proprietary AI in rare plant biology with scientific expertise to accelerate client projects from pipeline to Stage 1 project, expected to drive additional CDMO revenue.

Management reiterates its focus on profitable growth and category-defining innovation, positioning botanical synthesis as a commercial engine for high-value plant-based compounds.

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results
All figures stated in this news release are in U.S. dollars unless stated otherwise.

Revenues for the second quarter of 2025 increased 41% to $8.5 million - in line with management's revenue guidance - as compared to $6.0 million in the second quarter of 2024. The increase was a result of the continued success of the Company's VINIA® family of products.

Gross profit increased 65% to $5.1 million, or 60% of total revenue, in the second quarter of 2025, as compared to $3.1 million, or 52% of total revenue, in the same year-ago quarter. The increase in gross margin was primarily attributable to the benefits of increased manufacturing scale and improved manufacturing yields.

Total operating expenses for the second quarter totaled $6.9 million, as compared to $4.8 million in the same year-ago quarter. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to increased marketing spend and the development of the health pro affiliates program to support future revenue growth - and higher expenses from the CDMO services division. General and administrative expenses increased 61% year-over-year due to one-time costs associated with our NASDAQ corporate compliance upgrade.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2025 totaled $4.0 million, or $0.24 per basic and diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $0.7 million, or $0.04 per basic and diluted share, in the same year-ago quarter. Q2 2025 increase in net loss vs PY was primarily due to non cash finance expenses associated with exchange rate impact.

Adjusted EBITDA loss - a non-IFRS measure - totaled $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2025, as compared to an adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.2 million in the same year-ago quarter.

Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2025, totaled $3.7 million, as compared to $2.4 million as of December 31, 2024.

Use of Non-IFRS Financial Measures

This press release includes the following non-IFRS measure - Adjusted EBITDA, which is not a measure of financial performance under IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization adjusted for stock-based compensation and fair value adjustment of convertible loan and or warrants as well as issuance of warrants. The company believes this non-IFRS measure, when considered together with the corresponding IFRS measures, provides useful information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to the company's results of operations. However, this non-IFRS measure has significant limitations in that it does not reflect all the costs and other items associated with the operation of the company's business as determined in accordance with IFRS. In addition, the company's non-IFRS measures may be calculated differently and are therefore not comparable to similar measures by other companies. Therefore, investors should consider non-IFRS measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance in accordance with IFRS. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, its corresponding IFRS measure, is shown below.

Forward-Looking Statements

Information set forth in this news release might include forward-looking statements that are based on management's current estimates, beliefs, intentions, and expectations, and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. There is no assurance of additional future contracts. Readers are cautioned that future contracts or increased revenue is not necessarily an increase in net income or profitability as costs will likely increase as well. Launching new products is subject to risks and uncertainties including the risk that the market will not accept the product or that government approvals required for sale or import of the products will not be obtained. There is never an assurance that any product set will successfully disrupt established product categories. There is no assurance that the Company will maintain or improve current financial performance, as revenues and margins are dependent on a combination of factors such as supply chain efficiencies, input cost stability, marketing efficiencies and uncertain consumer preferences. All forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain and actual results may be affected by a number of material factors beyond our control. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. BHST does not intend to update forward-looking statement disclosures other than through our regular management discussion and analysis disclosures.
