Exhibit 99.1 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact Information: Investor Relations Jeff Sonnek (646) 277-1263 jeff.sonnek@icrinc.com Lifecore Biomedical Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Fiscal Year 2023 Results CHASKA, MN – August 31, 2023 - Lifecore Biomedical, Inc. (Nasdaq: LFCR) (“Lifecore” or the “Company”), a fully integrated contract development and manufacturing organization (“CDMO”), reported results for the fiscal 2023 fourth quarter and full year ended May 28, 2023. CEO COMMENTS: James G. Hall, President and Chief Executive Officer of Lifecore, commented, "We completed a very busy fourth quarter finalizing our transition to a stand-alone life sciences company with the final divestitures of the Curation Foods segment, strong growth in our development portfolio, and the comprehensive strategic refinancing and expanded supply agreement with our key customer Alcon. Our entire organization is now aligned toward a common goal of expanding Lifecore's position as a leading, fully integrated CDMO that offers highly differentiated capabilities in the development, fill and finish of complex sterile injectable pharmaceutical products in syringes and vials and injectable grade Hyaluronic Acid ("HA")." Mr. Hall continued, "We advanced our development portfolio in the fiscal fourth quarter with the addition of five projects affiliated with five new customers, which demonstrates the impact that our expanded commercial strategy and targeted sales approach is having on our opportunity pipeline. Concurrently, we are preparing our organization for the significant anticipated growth embedded in our portfolio, both in terms of capacity and people. To that end, our multi-use fillers remain on track for delivery in the coming months which will allow us to double our theoretical filling capacity to approximately 45 million units and put Lifecore in a great position to meet market needs and optimize our production across our manufacturing footprint. We also invested in our HA fermentation capacity during the fourth quarter and are in the process of moving from a single-shift fermentation production staff to a full 24/7 staffing model, which we expect will increase our sterile HA capacity by up to 50% by June 2024, allowing us to fulfill the increased HA volume orders associated with our expanded demand." "Looking ahead to our fiscal 2024 first quarter, our commercial momentum has continued, and we will add several new projects to our development portfolio for the period ended August 27, 2023. We believe this activity will begin to meaningfully contribute to our financial performance in fiscal 2024 second quarter and to a greater degree in the second half of the fiscal year." LIFECORE FISCAL FOURTH QUARTER 2023 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS: • Consolidated revenues of $31.5 million, an increase of 12.2% year-over-year.


 
• Consolidated gross profit of $8.4 million, a decrease of $4.3 million, or 33.9% year-over-year • Consolidated net loss from continuing operations of $33.8 million, which includes a $23.8 million loss on debt refinancing, $6.8 million of restructuring and other non-recurring charges such as legal expenses, both net of tax, as compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $1.0 million in the prior year period, which included $5.2 million of restructuring and other non-recurring charges, net of tax. • Consolidated adjusted EBITDA of $3.7 million, compared to $9.1 million in the prior year period. • Lifecore segment adjusted EBITDA of $6.1 million, compared to $10.7 million in the prior year period, which reflects the timing of shipments to customers; lower development revenue associated with a delay in onboarding new customer projects as well as a higher mix of earlier stage, lower revenue projects; and inflation associated with legacy commercial products. LIFECORE FISCAL YEAR 2023 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS: • Consolidated revenues of $103.3 million, a decrease of 7.2% year-over-year. • Consolidated gross profit of $27.3 million, a decrease of $15.6 million, or 36.4% year-over-year. • Consolidated net loss from continuing operations of $69.0 million, which includes $20.0 million of restructuring and other non-recurring charges such as legal expenses, both net of tax, as compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $12.0 million in the prior year period, which included $15.8 million of restructuring and other non-recurring charges, net of tax. • Consolidated adjusted EBITDA of $5.8 million, compared to $22.9 million in the prior year period. • Lifecore segment adjusted EBITDA of $14.7 million, compared to $30.7 million in the prior year period. Discontinued Operations As previously reported, the Company closed on the sales of certain businesses which are now included in discontinued operations including the following: • December 13, 2021, Curation Foods' fresh packaged salads and vegetables business (the “Eat Smart Disposition”) • February 7, 2023, Curation Foods' avocado products business (the “Yucatan Disposition”) • April 6, 2023, Curation Foods' O Olive Oil and Vinegar business (the "O Olive Disposition") The results of the above dispositions are reflected as discontinued operations in all periods presented within the Company’s financial statements reported herein. CONSOLIDATED FISCAL FOURTH QUARTER 2023 RESULTS: Fiscal fourth quarter 2023 results compared to fiscal fourth quarter 2022 are as follows:


 
(Unaudited and in thousands, except per-share data) Three Months Ended Change May 28, 2023 May 29, 2022 Amount % Revenues $ 31,546 $ 28,107 $ 3,439 12 % Gross profit 8,391 12,690 (4,299) (34) % Net loss from continuing operations (33,795) (1,010) (32,785) (3246) % Adjusted net income (loss)* (26,977) 4,203 (31,180) N/M Diluted net loss per share (1.11) (0.03) (1.08) (3600) % Adjusted diluted net income (loss) per share* (0.89) 0.15 (1.04) N/M EBITDA* (5,498) (47,087) 41,589 88 % Adjusted EBITDA* 3,727 9,149 (5,422) (59) % * See “Non-GAAP Financial Information” at the end of this release as to how the Company defines these non-GAAP financial measures and for a reconciliation thereof. Revenues increased $3.4 million year-over-year, which was primarily a result of a $3.9 million increase in Lifecore segment revenues. Gross profit decreased $4.3 million year-over-year, which was driven by a $5.0 million decrease in the Lifecore segment and a $0.7 million increase in the Curation Foods segment. Net loss from continuing operations was $33.8 million for fiscal fourth quarter 2023, which includes $6.8 million of restructuring and non-recurring charges, net of taxes, related to consolidating and optimizing operations associated with the Company's strategy to divest its Curation Foods businesses. This compares to a net loss from continuing operations of $1.0 million in the prior year period, which includes $5.2 million of restructuring and non-recurring charges, net of tax, similarly related to consolidating and optimizing its Curation Foods businesses. SEGMENT RESULTS: Lifecore Segment: (Unaudited and in thousands) Three Months Ended Change Twelve Months Ended Change May 28, 2023 May 29, 2022 Amount % May 28, 2023 May 29, 2022 Amount % Revenue: CDMO $ 24,290 $ 22,362 $ 1,928 9 % $ 76,378 $ 86,313 $ (9,935) (12) % Fermentation 7,256 5,251 2,005 38 % 26,891 23,007 3,884 17 % Total revenue $ 31,546 $ 27,613 $ 3,933 14 % $ 103,269 $ 109,320 $ (6,051) (6) % Lifecore is the Company’s CDMO business focused on product development and manufacturing of sterile injectable products. Lifecore continues to expand its presence in the robust CDMO marketplace by utilizing its specialized capabilities to partner with and provide value-added services to biopharmaceutical and medical device companies. Lifecore continues to seek to drive growth with a focus on building its business development pipeline, maximizing capacity and advancing product commercialization for innovative new therapies that improve patients’ lives. In the fiscal fourth quarter 2023, Lifecore realized total revenues of $31.5 million, representing an increase of 14.2% as compared to the prior year period, primarily driven by a 38.2% increase in its HA raw material manufacturing (fermentation) business and an 8.6% increase in its CDMO business. The increase in HA raw material manufacturing revenue was primarily due to the higher demand in


 
the current year. The increase in CDMO revenues was primarily due to the timing of customer shipments, as well as a higher mix of earlier phase development projects onboarded at the earlier lower initial revenue stage. Lifecore's development pipeline in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 increased by five to 29 active development programs under contract as of the end of the fiscal 2023 fourth quarter. These projects are delineated as follows: early phase or proof of concept (seven projects), Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical development (eight projects), and Phase 3 clinical development or scale-up/commercial validation activity (fourteen projects). Lifecore currently manufactures 29 commercial products for 14 clients, which is unchanged from fiscal third quarter 2023.

CASH FLOW & BALANCE SHEET Cash used in operations was $34.5 million for the fiscal year ended May 28, 2023 compared to $23.2 million in the prior year period. Cash provided by investing activities decreased $84.1 million compared to the prior year period to $4.2 million used in investing activities 2023, primarily due to the timing of Curation Foods' businesses dispositions. Capital expenditures were $20.8 million for the fiscal year ended May 28, 2023 which were primarily focused on investing in Lifecore’s long-term growth initiatives. The results for fiscal year 2023 and 2022 included herein reflect adjustments to increase capitalized interest by $2.5 million and $1.8 million, respectively, which have the effect of increasing capital expenditures and reducing interest expense by offsetting amounts for the respective periods. These adjustments remain subject to the completion of the audit of the Company’s financial statements, including with respect to any final adjustments to capitalized interest for those periods. Cash provided by financing activities was $56.1 million for the fiscal year ended May 28, 2023, driven primarily by the previously announced sale of common and convertible preferred stock and proceeds from the debt refinancing. The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $19.1 million as of May 28, 2023. Total term debt, net of cash, at May 28, 2023, was $147.2 million, consisting of its line of credit, term debt and debt derivative liability associated with the new term debt, compared to $137.2 million in the prior year. With the debt refinancing in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023, debt has been characterized as a long-term liability as compared to a current liability in the prior year. As previously announced, on May 22, 2023, the Company entered into $150 million of new credit arrangements with Alcon, including a six-year credit agreement and a sale and leaseback of certain HA fermentation equipment which replaced its existing term loan.
