• Cash flow break-even projected for Q4 2023

 VANCOUVER, CANADA, and REHOVOT, ISRAEL, December 15, 2022 – BioHarvest Sciences Inc.(“BioHarvest” or “the Company”) (CSE: BHSC) (OTCQB: CNVCF)is estimating 2023 revenue to be between USD $17M-20M, representing a significant growth of at least 3X over 2022. Revenue for 2022 is now estimated to be USD $5.5M-$5.7M, meeting the guidance range provided by the company in Q1 of this year.

The Company is also projecting to achieve cash flow break-even in Q4 2023. BioHarvest plans to continue investing in R&D and in the building of manufacturing capacity for its nutraceuticals and cannabis verticals both in Israel and abroad.

“Our Biotech scalable innovation is a key differentiator in the markets we serve, and it is paying off,” said Ilan Sobel, CEO of BioHarvest. “In 2022 we achieved 2.5X revenue growth over 2021 and we are now looking at exceeding 3.0X growth in 2023. This phenomenal growth can be attributed to the science-based products developed by our experienced scientists and to the commercial platform built by our talented marketing and sales organization.”

The flagship product VINIA® is enjoying overwhelming consumer demand and will represent a significant portion of 2023 revenue. Among its outstanding sales metrics is a 4.8/5 rating from 1,350+ verified reviews, demonstrating the strength of loyalty and long-term relationships which the brand is building with its customer base. In addition, as VINIA® brand strength grows, the level of B2B interest from major US companies who are learning about its unique benefits has also increased. The Company enters 2023 with a pending Batory Foods purchase order of $600K USD that was only partially filled in 2022 due to the surge in demand for VINIA®Direct-To-Consumer sales and looks forward to continued momentum in this channel.

The past quarter’s performance contributes to the Company’s confidence in generating healthy sales growth of its science-based products. In addition, BioHarvest’s e-commerce platform, built over the past 18 months, is proving to be a strong foundational asset for turning synergies into sales and improving marketing efficiencies.

BioHarvest will leverage its proprietary Bio-plant CELLicitation™ technology platform to introduce new products and debut their sales in 2023. On the cannabis front, there will be products with THC below 0.3% — which will be launched nationally in the US to leverage the power of the Company’s e-commerce platform. Additional products with a higher THC level will be introduced to US cannabis research license holders (with DEA approval) via the Company’s recently announced agreement with Royal Emerald Pharmaceuticals and via other partnerships at a US state level.

 Ilan Sobel concluded “I look forward to an outstanding year with significant revenue growth and continued major technological breakthroughs. I will be sharing more details about our outstanding prospects in 2023 and beyond at the shareholders conference planned for January 19^th, 2023. I hope the projected growth we are announcing today is accepted by shareholders as my gift for the holidays. Happy holidays to all.”
