DENVER, COLORADO / ACCESS Newswire / August 6, 2025 / SOBR Safe, Inc. (Nasdaq:SOBR) ("SOBRsafe" or the "Company"), the leader in next-generation alcohol monitoring and detection technology, announced today that the European Patent Office ("EPO") has granted a European Patent to SOBR Safe for the Company's SOBRcheck™ device. The EPO published European Patent No. EP4171362 titled "NONINVASIVE TRANSDERMAL ALCOHOL SCREENING SYSTEM" on August 6, 2025, after issuing a Decision to Grant the patent application on July 10, 2025.

SOBRsafe's new European Patent covers a variety of its alcohol detection devices, including the Company's passive, non-invasive alcohol monitoring and detection technology that enables the identification of alcohol consumption emitted through perspiration from the skin without the need for breath, blood or other intrusive sampling methods. The European Patent secures the Company's proprietary system architecture, including combining a transdermal alcohol sensor with a biometric identification scanner to provide an alcohol consumption measurement and identification of a user in a singular device with skin contact verification features to prevent tampering, and also evaluates environmental compensators that ensure accurate readings in real world conditions. In addition, the patent covers the device's ability to store, analyze, and wirelessly transmit data for real time or retrospective monitoring. This foundational intellectual property strengthens SOBRsafe's competitive advantage in workplace safety, judicial compliance, and wellness applications across the European market.

With a growing portfolio of proprietary technology, SOBRsafe is focused on expanding its international footprint. The company has a promising pipeline of opportunities with pilot tests in Europe set to commence in the second half of 2025.

"The granting of our European patent for the SOBRcheck™ device represents a major milestone in advancing our intellectual property portfolio and global expansion," said SOBRsafe CEO David Gandini. "This patent affirms the uniqueness of our noninvasive alcohol monitoring and detection system and reinforces the significant investments we have made in research and development. Securing this patent strengthens our competitive position for potential expansion into the European market and lays a solid foundation for future partnerships and pilot programs. We remain focused on delivering reliable, rapid alcohol monitoring and detection solutions that improve safety and accountability worldwide."
