2024 Financial Results and Provides Business Update
Rehovot, Israel, March 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)
-- Steakholder Foods Ltd. (Nasdaq: STKH), a leading innovator in 3D-printed meat and fish technology and cultivated cell innovation,
is pleased to provide an annual business update for the year ended December 31, 2024 and subsequent events. Demonstrating significant
strides in both technological advancements and market presence, Steakholder Foods continues to solidify its position as a leader in the
future of alternative meat and fish production.
2024 and Up to Date Business Highlights
2024 was the year that Steakholder Foods initiated
revenue generation, following the signing of a commercial sales agreement with Bondor Foods Ltd., a sister company of Premazon. Following
the successful completion of a product development phase with Premazon announced earlier in 2024, the Company received an initial purchase
order from Bondor Foods for its proprietary SH™ – Fish premix blends. While the initial revenue was minimal in 2024, this
achievement was seen as a crucial validation of Steakholder’s commercialization strategy, setting the stage for potentially significant
future sales. The agreement with Bondor Foods involves integrating Steakholder’s premix into Bondor’s new line of plant-based
white fish and salmon patties, which are ready to reach the market, leveraging Bondor’s existing extensive distribution network.
Building on this commercial momentum, Steakholder
announced another purchase order, this time from Wyler Farm for its SH™ - Beef premix blends. This order is for the development
of a new line of plant-based meatballs, burgers, and minced beef for release in 2025. The varied purchase orders underscore the Compny’s
versatility in meeting diverse needs across the alternative protein sector, from seafood to meat substitutes. Following the product launch,
Steakholder Foods intends to work with Wyler Farm to produce an additional product line using its proprietary 3D printing technology and
premix blends, including manufacturing printed beef steaks.
In 2024, Steaholder also continued to make progress
with its partnerships with the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI), a Taiwan-based world-leading applied technology research
institute, and Sherry Herring Sandwiches Ltd, a highly-recognized gourmet fish delicacies brand. The collaboration with ITRI continues
to drive Steakholder’s expansion in Taiwan, focused on developing products tailored to local tastes.
To support Steakholder’s commercialization
efforts, it opened its first full-scale Demonstration Center, a state-of-the-art facility that showcases the Company’s groundbreaking
3D printing technologies in action. This center features live demonstrations of the MX200 and HD144 printers, allowing potential clients
and partners to experience firsthand the entire production process of Steakholder’s plant-based meat and seafood alternatives. Built
to food production facility standards, the center enables visitors to observe every step from material preparation through production
and packaging, culminating in tasting sessions that highlight the quality and versatility of the Company’s offerings.
On the fundraising front, in February 2025, the
Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with an investor, whereby the investor purchased 1,097,358 ADSs (or pre-funded warrants
in lieu thereof) at a final offering price of $1.1391 per ADS, and received warrants to purchase 1,097,358 ADSs with an exercise price
of $2.00 per ADS, for a total initial investment of $1.25 million. The Company also entered into an At-the-Money Offering Agreement (“ATMOA”),
establishing an $8 million equity line of credit with the Investor. Pursuant to the ATMOA, the Company shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to issue to the Investor, and the Investor is obligated to purchase upon notification, up to $0.5 million in ADSs (unless
mutually agreed on an amount of up to $3 million) at any one time, and $8 million in total over the duration of the ATMOA, through June
2026. The purchase price in respect of any purchase notice shall equal 6% less than the lowest dollar volume-weighted average price of
the ADSs during the five business days prior to the closing of any purchase thereunder. In consideration for the investor’s execution
and delivery of the ATMOA, the Company agreed to pay the Investor a commitment fee equal to 2% of the line of credit.

2023. The decrease resulted mainly from reduced professional services and personnel costs, including share-based compensation for employees,

General and administrative
expenses decreased to $3.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to approximately $4.4 million for the year ended

The loss from continuing
operations decreased to $8.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to approximately $15.5 million for the year ended
December 31, 2023, driven mainly by decreases in research and development expenses, as part of company-wide economizing measures.
