American Marconi Wireless News - Moolec Science Confirms Completion of First Phase of GLASO Industrialization Following Record 2025 Campaign; Advances 2026 Sowing and Expands Into Energy Applications

Building on previously reported results confirming approximately 45% GLA ("Gamma-linolenic acid") concentration at commercial scale, the Company has now validated not only agronomic and processing performance, but also the industrial-scale handling and availability of high-purity GLA output, marking a critical step toward full commercial deployment.

Industrialization Milestone Achieved

The 2025 GLASO¹ campaign delivered a tremendous volume of high-purity GLA output, surpassing expected yields and enabling Moolec to successfully complete the initial phase of industrialization, including large-scale harvesting, logistics coordination, and integration with downstream industrial processes.

This scale has translated into available, ready-for-delivery end product, reinforcing the Company's transition from development to commercialization. While initial market traction has been centered in the pet food industry, the quality, traceability, and concentration profile of GLASO¹-derived oils position the platform to expand into higher-value applications, including the human nutrition and dietary supplements markets, where demand for molecular farming-derived, high-performance functional lipids continues to grow.

GLASO¹ 2026 Campaign Underway

With this foundation in place, Moolec is advancing the GLASO¹ 2026 campaign, with sowing scheduled to begin in early May, continuing its disciplined, execution-led scaling strategy across existing U.S. agricultural infrastructure.

Advancing Next-Generation Safflower Platforms

In parallel, Moolec continues to expand its safflower innovation pipeline through a strategic research collaboration with one of the largest global agribusiness and food companies, as previously disclosed by the Company.

As part of this initiative, Moolec has accessed a germplasm library of 386 safflower varieties sourced from Australia and is currently in the final phase of selecting the top candidate varieties based on performance, adaptability, and industrial potential.

This program is expected to underpin the development of a new business unit focused on renewable energy feedstocks, targeting one of the largest and structurally growing global markets within the energy transition. While traditional approaches have been characterized by commodity dynamics, Moolec's strategy is differentiated, focusing on high-performance and scalable feedstocks.

"The 2025 campaign not only confirmed leading GLA concentrations, but also delivered a level of output that exceeded all expectations. Our focus now is clear: complete the industrialization pathway, scale through the 2026 campaign, and expand the platform into new verticals," said Alejandro Antalich, CEO of Moolec Science.

"By leveraging our molecular farming platform and selecting top-performing safflower varieties at scale, we are positioning Moolec at the highest-value layer of the value chain, where performance, traceability, and scalability drive premium economics. This approach enables participation across multiple high-value applications, including nutrition, supplements, and specialty ingredients, while also positioning the Company for long-term participation in energy markets," concluded Antalich.
