Reports 19% Year-Over-Year Revenue Growth While Advancing Strategic Partnership Discussions to Enable Capital-Efficient Expansion and Enhanced Returns

Reduced Year-to-Date Annualized Expenses by Nearly $8 million, with Additional Reduction of $1.5-2 Million Expected to be Actioned in the Fourth Quarter of 2025

HAMILTON, Mont., Nov. 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Local Bounti Corporation (NYSE: LOCL) ("Local Bounti" or the "Company"), a breakthrough U.S. indoor agriculture company, today announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2025.

Kathleen Valiasek, President, CEO and CFO of Local Bounti, stated, "Third quarter results demonstrate our operational momentum is building as planned. We delivered 19% year-over-year revenue growth, improved our adjusted EBITDA loss year-over-year, and completed critical facility upgrades—our Texas automated harvesting system is now operational, and tower upgrades are driving yield improvements. What makes this quarter particularly significant is the strategic inflection point we've reached in the marketplace. We believe controlled environment agriculture has crossed the threshold from emerging technology to essential infrastructure. The same retailers and strategic partners who were cautious three years ago are now in active, strategic discussions about long-term supply partnerships. While navigating partnership timelines has meant accepting more modest sequential growth as we align our production ramps with long-term commitments, the commercial fundamentals remain strong—several key accounts have doubled month-over-month, and we are launching new products including family-sized salad kits for major retailers. We are building this business for sustainable profitability, not just revenue growth, and we expect to reach positive adjusted EBITDA in early 2026."

Craig Hurlbert, Executive Chairman of Local Bounti, stated, "The conversations we are having today with major retailers and food companies would have been unimaginable two years ago—they are designing supply chains that assume CEA is permanent infrastructure."

Third Quarter 2025 Financial Summary

• Sales increased 19% to $12.2 million in the third quarter of 2025, as compared to $10.2 million in the prior year period. The increase was due to increased production and growth in sales from the facilities in Georgia, Texas, and Washington.
• Gross profit was $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2025. Adjusted gross margin percentage¹ was approximately 29%, excluding depreciation and stock-based compensation, and other non-core items, as compared to 32% in the prior year period.
• General and administrative expenses increased by $0.1 million to $10.5 million in the third quarter of 2025, and includes a $3.7 million intangible impairment associated with the "Pete's" trade name, which is no longer in use; as compared to $10.4 million in the prior year period. Adjusted general and administrative expense¹, which excludes the aforementioned intangible impairment, stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, and other non-core items was $4.1 million, a decrease of 26%, or $1.4 million, as compared to prior year period. During the first nine months of 2025, the Company reduced its annualized expenses by nearly $8 million (to include operating expenses and cost of goods sold).
• Net loss was $26.4 million in the third quarter of 2025 as compared to net loss of $34.3 million for the prior year period, primarily due to lower net interest expense resulting from the debt restructuring activities the Company completed in the first quarter of 2025.
• Adjusted EBITDA¹ loss improved to $7.2 million, as compared to a loss of $8.4 million in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA loss for the third quarter of 2025 excludes $1.3 million in stock-based compensation, $4.6 million in interest expense, $5.9 million of depreciation and amortization, $3.4 million loss on change in fair value of warrant liability, and other non-core items.

Commercial Facilities Update

Texas Facility Reconfiguration Complete

As previously reported, the Company reconfigured three acres of its Texas facility—originally designed for head lettuce production—to create a flexible growing environment capable of producing both head lettuce and cut products based on customer preferences. The retrofit was completed in late July, and the facility reached full harvestable capacity in early August. The automated harvesting equipment installation was completed and became fully operational during the third quarter, replacing the temporary harvester used during the second quarter. From July through October, the Company increased labor productivity by approximately 19%—measured as pounds produced per labor hour—while simultaneously reducing direct labor cost per pound by approximately 17%. These improvements validate the scalability of the Company's Stack & Flow Technology as volume increases. The Texas facility is now sold out on a run-rate basis.

Yield Improvement

The Company continues to advance its yield improvement and cost reduction initiatives across its facility network. Planned tower upgrades have been installed at each of its facilities following the completion of work at the Texas and Washington facilities in early September.  These upgrades are designed to achieve better climate control through the stack phase to enhance production efficiency and increase yield capacity.  Management expects to complete optimization in the fourth quarter of 2025 with resultant yield increases of more than 10% to follow.

Cost Reduction Initiatives

Looking ahead, the Company has targeted additional cost reduction initiatives in the range of $1.5 to $2.0 million, annualized, to be actioned in the fourth quarter of 2025 and realized in the first half of 2026 with additional measures to follow. These savings stem from ongoing projects to improve operational efficiency and reduce costs in key areas like raw materials, packaging, labor, utilities and other cost of goods sold. Within raw materials, these savings are expected to stem from further seed and substrate cost reductions, where management has already made great progress in 2025, with annualized savings since the beginning of the year of $2 million.

Capacity Expansion Project

Plans remain in place to build additional capacity across the Company's network of facilities enabled with its patented Stack & Flow Technology. The expansions are designed to provide additional capacity and allow for the Company's growing product assortment to meet existing demand from Local Bounti's direct relationships with blue-chip retailers and distributors. The timing and scope of these projects, including plans to expand into the Midwest, remain under review pending ongoing discussions with retailers to optimize those facilities for specific products in support of retail commitments and strategies to expand distribution.

Intellectual Property

The Company continues to advance its intellectual property portfolio and recently received a positive update related to its previously filed patent application in 2022 titled "Optimizing Growing Process in a Hybrid Growing Environment Using Computer Vision and AI." The Company anticipates that this patent may be issued as early as December 2025. The Company has been utilizing computer vision and AI at all of its Stack & Flow Technology-enabled facilities to analyze plant growth data in conjunction with environmental data to identify patterns that drive improved consistency and yield.

Product Development & Distribution

During the third quarter of 2025, Local Bounti expanded distribution of its salad kit line across additional regional retailers in the Pacific Northwest, demonstrating ongoing demand for convenient and fresh meal options. In the home-delivery channel, the Company successfully launched four new grab-and-go offerings with a leading partner, thus increasing the depth of its assortment and further positioning itself for growth in the direct-to-consumer segment. Additionally, Local Bounti entered into an agreement to pack private label Butter Living for Markon Cooperative, which serves as the purchasing, logistics, information, and marketing partner for its five member distributors and their North American foodservice customers. This partnership highlights the trust and credibility Local Bounti has established with its partners.

Regarding product commercialization, Local Bounti finalized its new family-sized 10oz Romano Caesar Salad Kit, which launched in key Pacific Northwest retailers, including Walmart, in October. This move advances the Company's strategy to offer multi-serve products at scale.

Capital Structure

The Company ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $12.7 million as of September 30, 2025.

In August 2025, Local Bounti closed on $10 million of financing through a convertible note agreement with an existing investor. In conjunction with this agreement, the Company also amended its existing senior credit facility to reduce the principal balance by $10 million, the terms of which remain consistent with the restructured agreements entered into on March 31, 2025.

On March 31, 2025, Local Bounti closed a $25 million equity investment from new and existing investors and amended its existing credit facility, which resulted in a new $312 million senior secured debt agreement with a new 10-year term and no cash interest or principal payments until April 2027. The transaction resulted in the cancellation of approximately $197 million of debt principal and accrued interest.

Additionally, the Company continues to execute on other financing arrangements, such as an equipment leasing transaction where it expects to receive approximately $2 million in cash in the coming weeks. Combined with the recent additional financing and principal debt reduction, these transactions demonstrate the continued confidence of the Company's strategic financing partners and position Local Bounti with improved liquidity and capital structure flexibility.

As of September 30, 2025, Local Bounti had approximately 22.1 million shares outstanding, 6.8 million common shares under warrants outstanding, and approximately 3.2 million restricted stock units outstanding. The Company also has an in-the-money convertible note that, if converted, would result in the issuance of approximately 4.0 million common shares. Including the shares issuable in the event of conversion of the convertible note, as well as the warrants and restricted stock units, the Company had a fully diluted share count of approximately 36.1 million shares outstanding as of September 30, 2025.

Financial Outlook

The Company expects sequential improvements in its adjusted EBITDA loss rate in the coming quarters toward its objective of achieving positive adjusted EBITDA in early 2026, driven by sales growth, cost reduction initiatives, and the ramp from its facilities network.
