Raising 2026 net sales outlook to $313 million to $323 million

Once Upon a Farm, PBC (NYSE:OFRM) (or the "Company"), a leading high-growth company driving systemic improvement in childhood nutrition, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

First Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights Compared to Prior Year Period

• Net sales increased 43.7% to $72.7 million
• Gross margin of 40.8% compared to 37.7%
• Net loss of $15.8 million compared to a net loss of $19.5 million
• Adjusted EBITDA¹ loss of $3.1 million compared to a loss of $7.5 million

"Our first quarter results were excellent with momentum building across the business," said John Foraker, CEO and co-founder of Once Upon a Farm. "We delivered 44% year over year net sales growth and more than 300 basis points of gross margin expansion, driven by accelerating velocities, expanding distribution, and increasingly productive assortments. Importantly, we are seeing meaningful productivity gains from our cooler placements, which delivered an approximate 11% increase in dollar productivity versus the prior quarter, demonstrating that our cooler model is driving higher productivity as we scale. Consumption trends remain strong, with continued gains in household penetration and repeat rates driving growth across our portfolio. Based on this momentum, we are raising our full-year net sales outlook and remain highly confident in the durability and efficiency of our growth model. We believe we are building a highly differentiated & purpose-driven brand that is winning with consumers and expanding the category while delivering attractive long-term returns for shareholders."

First Quarter 2026 Results

Net sales increased $22.1 million, or 43.7%, to $72.7 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $50.6 million in the prior year period. The increase in net sales was driven by a 21.5% increase in volume growth reflecting incremental distribution of existing products and new product introductions.

Gross profit was $29.7 million, or 40.8% of net sales, for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $19.1 million, or 37.7% of net sales, in the prior year period. The 308 basis point increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales was driven by lower slotting fees related to coolers.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $45.8 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $28.3 million for the prior year period. Approximately $10.9 million of the $17.5 million increase in SG&A expense was attributable to stock-based compensation and one-time performance payments related to our IPO. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales increased by 713 basis points to 63.0% in the first quarter of 2026 compared to 55.9% in the prior year period, reflecting stock-based compensation and one-time performance payments related to our IPO along with higher labor and employee costs as a percentage of net sales, partially offset by lower logistics and selling expenses as a percentage of net sales.

Net loss was $15.8 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to a net loss of $19.5 million in the prior year period. The decrease in net loss was primarily driven by higher gross profit, partially offset by higher SG&A expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA¹ loss was $3.1 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to a loss of $7.5 million in the prior year period. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA loss was primarily driven by the increase in gross profit partially offset by higher SG&A expenses.

Balance Sheet

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $99.9 million and no debt, compared to $10.9 million of cash and cash equivalents and total debt of $60.2 million as of December 31, 2025. The increase in net cash and decrease in total debt reflect the application of proceeds from the Company's IPO in February 2026.

Full Year 2026 Outlook

For full year 2026, the Company expects:

• Net sales of $313 million to $323 million, representing growth of 30% to 34% versus 2025
• Adjusted EBITDA of $2 million to $4 million

Outlook is based on information as of today, May 7, 2026, and may be impacted by factors outside the Company's control. See "Forward-Looking Statements" below.

The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation for forward-looking outlook of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most closely comparable GAAP measure without unreasonable effort, because certain material reconciling items, such as depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest income, and provision for income tax, cannot be estimated due to factors outside of the Company's control and could have a material impact on the reported results.

¹ Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. See "Non-GAAP Measures" for how the Company defines this measure and the financial tables that accompany this press release for a reconciliation of this measure to the most closely comparable GAAP measure.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA

The Company calculates Adjusted EBITDA as net loss, adjusted to exclude: (1) change in fair value of derivative liability; (2) change in fair value of convertible preferred stock warrant liability; (3) stock-based compensation; (4) depreciation and amortization; (5) amortization of payments under the Spokesperson Agreement; (6) one-time bonuses related to our IPO; (7) interest expense; (8) interest income; and (9) provision for income taxes. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides meaningful supplemental information regarding its operating performance and facilitates internal comparisons of its historical operating performance on a more consistent basis by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of its business, results of operations, or outlook. In particular, the Company believes that the use of Adjusted EBITDA is helpful to the Company's investors as it is a measure used by management in assessing the health of its business, determining incentive compensation, and evaluating its operating performance, as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes.
