"Today represents a defining moment for Moolec. Regaining compliance with Nasdaq while simultaneously advancing the commercial execution of our GLASO¹ platform reflects the extraordinary resilience, discipline, and commitment of our entire team. Over the past quarters, we have worked relentlessly across operations, finance, science, and corporate execution to strengthen the foundations of the Company for the long term. The successful execution of our 2026 commercial planting campaign, together with the continued advancement of our proprietary genetics platform, demonstrates our ability to keep building and executing even during challenging periods. We are also extremely proud of the professionalism and dedication demonstrated by our farming partners in the United States, whose operational expertise and execution capabilities are playing an important role in the continued development of the GLASO platform. We believe the progress achieved across our operational and corporate initiatives positions Moolec for the next phase of scalable commercialization and growth," commented Alejandro Antalich, Chief Executive Officer of Moolec Science.

GLASO Successfully Completes 2026 Commercial Planting Campaign

Commercial planting activities commenced on May 4, 2026, and were successfully completed this week during the optimal agronomic planting window in the American Falls region of Idaho, an area recognized for its favorable conditions for safflower cultivation, including a semi-arid climate, low-humidity environment, well-drained soils, strong solar exposure, and access to established irrigation infrastructure.

The 2026 campaign represents another important operational milestone as GLASO¹ continues progressing toward larger-scale commercial execution supported by proprietary genetics, advanced agronomic management, and increasing demand for differentiated specialty oil solutions.

All production fields were planted following extensive soil preparation, irrigation optimization, and seed conditioning protocols designed to maximize germination performance, crop emergence, and stand establishment. Based on current field conditions and forecasted temperatures, the Company expects strong crop establishment during the coming weeks.

Proprietary High-GLA Genetics Program Advances 2027 Commercial Expansion Strategy

In parallel with commercial field operations, Moolec continues advancing its proprietary safflower breeding and genetic selection platform focused on increasing GLA concentration performance, improving genetic purity, and supporting future commercial scale-up initiatives. As previously disclosed by the Company, GLASO¹ achieved GLA concentrations of approximately 45%, representing one of the highest commercial-scale GLA concentrations reported from U.S. safflower crushing operations. Building on those results, the Company has now identified 52 elite genotypes from a population of 320 candidates derived from the prior breeding cycle that demonstrated average GLA oil concentrations exceeding 60%.

Moolec believes these results represent a significant advancement in safflower oil composition performance and further reinforce the differentiated profile of the GLASO¹ platform within the high-value specialty oils sector. The selected elite lines are expected to be planted individually in dedicated research plots following completion of final seed conditioning procedures. The ongoing breeding program is designed to support the generation of renewed high-purity seed inventory intended to enhance future commercial planting programs and larger-scale production initiatives.
