VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ – ELSE NUTRITION HOLDINGS INC. (TSX: BABY) (OTCQX: BABYF) (FSE: 0YL.F) (“Else” or the “Company”), today reported its robust financial results for the third quarter ending September 30, 2024. The comprehensive financial statements and Management Discussion & Analysis (MD&A) can be found on SEDAR under the Company’s profile.

Hamutal Yitzhak, CEO of Else Nutrition, emphasized, “We are making steady progress executing our growth strategy, while carefully managing expenses. We achieved a notable 5% year-over-year revenue increase in Q3 2024, demonstrating a growing consumer appetite for our products and our expanding retail presence.” Despite a very modest marketing budget, the Company has shown its resilience and adaptability in a competitive market.

“Our traction with retailers across North America continues to strengthen, highlighted by our recent pilot program with Costco – one of the largest wholesale retailers on the continent. This initial effort could pave the way for distribution in over 100 of their Canadian locations, with plans to extend into the US market. This expansion represents a substantial opportunity to reach new consumers and bolster our brand recognition. Furthermore, we are finalizing the expanded availability of our kids’ Ready-to-Drink (RTD) products with another major US retailer, promising access to over 900 large grocery stores, further enhancing our market footprint. We are also proud to spotlight our ongoing product innovations, including the impending launch of our Adult RTD product, with first commercial production slated for later this year. This is a key milestone on our journey to broaden our offerings in line with consumer demand for convenient, healthy whole food, minimally processed, and easy to digest plant-based nutrition.”

“To support our growth thus far, we are engaged in active discussions surrounding non-dilutive bridge funding, as well as establishing a long-term credit line. This financial backing will empower us to ramp up our marketing efforts, optimize our capital structure, and propel our long-term growth strategy. Concurrently, we’ve implemented strategic cost-saving measures aimed at enhancing our margins in upcoming quarters. We believe these operational improvements, coupled with innovative product launches and an expanding retail presence, are setting the foundation for long-term financial success.”

“Looking ahead, we are committed to executing on our financial strategy, which will enable us to expand our retail footprint, elevate brand visibility, and continue developing high-demand plant-based products. Our mission to provide healthy, sustainable nutrition options positions us at the forefront of the plant-based nutrition market, and we are genuinely excited about the opportunities that lie ahead.”
