The Company has available capacity across multiple Company-owned and operated greenhouses and processing facilities, together with an established national contract grower network positioned near major U.S. markets, and the food safety and service infrastructure required by national accounts, and is actively engaged with multiple retailers regarding new and expanded programs.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The increase in demand follows a period of significant consolidation across the controlled environment agriculture sector, including the recently announced wind-down of a large indoor farming operator that supplied thousands of U.S. retail locations. As retailers affected by these disruptions move quickly to secure dependable sources of year-round supply, Edible Garden\u2019s operational discipline and ability to deliver on time and in full have become increasingly important competitive advantages. The Company has benefited from similar market disruptions before: in reporting its 2025 annual results, Edible Garden disclosed that cut herb unit sales increased approximately 22.9% year over year, driven in part by incremental volume resulting from supply chain disruptions among competing herb suppliers.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cThe phone is ringing at levels we have not seen before,\u201d said Jim Kras, Chief Executive Officer of Edible Garden. \u201cRetailers are not looking for a supplier next year \u2014 they are looking right now, and what they are asking about first is whether you can actually deliver, on time and in full, every single week. That is precisely what we have built this Company to do. We are not simply open for business \u2014 we are growing, we have capacity available, and we intend to convert as much of this demand into long-term programs as we can.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Rather than pursuing growth at any cost, the Company has focused on developing a capital-efficient operating model centered on disciplined expansion, operational efficiency, supply chain excellence and profitable customer relationships. The Company\u2019s operational execution is reflected in its industry-leading On-Time, In-Full (OTIF) performance and fulfillment rates that have exceeded 98% across its retail network. These service levels reinforce Edible Garden\u2019s reputation as a dependable supplier and support the long-standing relationships it has established with many of North America\u2019s leading retailers.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The Company\u2019s recent commercial momentum has come from both new and existing national accounts. Over the past several months, Edible Garden has announced a multi-year private label fresh herb supply agreement with a major Midwest big-box retailer extending through December 31, 2028; a significant expansion of fresh cut herb distribution with Walmart across the Mid-Atlantic; the commencement of shipments under a new fresh cut herb program with Target; and chainwide availability of its USDA Organic herb line at all The Fresh Market locations nationwide. For the first quarter of 2026, the Company reported revenue growth of approximately 22.9% to approximately $3.3 million, led by an increase of approximately 45.9% in cut herb sales. These program wins reflect the confidence retailers place in Edible Garden\u2019s ability to consistently execute and support large-scale distribution.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Edible Garden believes its operating model is structurally different from the capital-intensive indoor farming build-outs that have defined much of the sector\u2019s recent history. Rather than concentrating capital in a small number of highly automated, high-cost facilities, the Company operates vertically integrated greenhouses and processing facilities in Belvidere, New Jersey; Grand Rapids, Michigan; and Webster City, Iowa, supported by a national network of contract growers located near major U.S. markets. In April 2026, Edible Garden was named one of the Top 25 Greenhouse Produce Growers in the U.S. in 2026 by CEAg World, a leading authority covering the controlled environment agriculture industry, in a ranking based on active greenhouse production acreage. That structure is designed to deliver freshness, reduce food miles and scale distribution without the capital intensity that has challenged others in the industry. Edible Garden products are currently available in more than 6,000 retail locations across the United States, the Caribbean and South America. The Company believes this capital-efficient structure provides the operational flexibility to respond to changing retailer demand while supporting disciplined, sustainable growth.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cWe have deliberately built a business that does not require enormous capital to grow,\u201d continued Mr. Kras. \u201cWe have reduced labor costs, invested in automation, renegotiated supplier agreements and brought production in house \u2014 and we have done all of that at the same time we have been winning new retail programs and growing revenue. Taking cost out of the business while growing the top line is how margins expand, and that is exactly the work our team is doing every day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cOperational discipline and dependable customer execution remain central to our strategy. Our retail relationships have been built over many years by consistently delivering quality products when and where our customers need them, and we believe that record of performance represents one of Edible Garden\u2019s most important competitive advantages.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cAt the same time, our Farm-to-Formula\u00ae platform and the ready-to-drink buildout at our Prairie Hills facility with Tetra Pak are opening a path into higher-margin, shelf-stable nutrition categories that very few fresh produce companies of our size can access,\u201d concluded Mr. Kras.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Guided by its Zero-Waste Inspired\u00ae philosophy, the Company intends to continue expanding its fresh cut herb and USDA Organic programs while advancing its Farm-to-Formula\u00ae platform into higher-value, shelf-stable nutrition categories. The Company believes its differentiated operating model, long-standing retailer relationships and disciplined approach to growth position Edible Garden to capitalize on additional opportunities as the controlled environment agriculture industry continues to consolidate and evolve.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <b>ABOUT EDIBLE GARDEN<sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Edible Garden AG Incorporated is a leader in controlled environment agriculture (CEA), delivering organic, better-for-you, sustainable produce and products through its Zero-Waste Inspired<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> next-generation farming model.
