News provided by Eshbal Functional Foods Inc May 01, 2026, 09:08 ET Share this article Share to X Share this article Share to X TSXV: ESBL VANCOUVER, BC , May 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Eshbal Functional Food Inc . (TSXV: ESBL) ("Eshbal" or the "Company") reports its financial results and MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company reported revenues of US $13.8 million for 2025, compared to $11.4 million in 2024, representing an increase of approximately 20% year-on-year. Gross profit increased to $3.5 million, with gross margin improving to approximately 25.4%, compared to 22.7% in the prior year.

The increase in revenues and gross profit reflects continued growth in the Company's core operations, including expanded product offerings, increased sales to existing customers, and the addition of new customers. Operating loss for the year was $0.3 million, compared to operating income of $0.6 million in 2024, primarily reflecting higher general and administrative expenses associated with the Company's transition to a public company. Net loss for the year was $2.9 million, mainly due to one-time listing expenses incurred in connection with the reverse takeover completed in April 2025.

Further to the Company's announcement on February 6, 2026 that it acquired the business of Gluten Free Nation, on April 9, 2026, the parties entered into a side letter agreement that in the event the issuance of shares of Eshbal pursuant to the attainment of certain milestones would cause Starcall Broadcasting LLC ("Starcall"), the vendor of the Gluten Free Nation assets, together with its affiliates and joint actors to own 10% or more of the issued voting securities of Eshbal, Eshbal will pay cash to Starcall in lieu of issuing such shares that result in Starcall owning 10% of the outstanding Eshbal shares.
