Updates on Key Growth Initiatives Launch of Evolve™ Rat: The Evolve Rat product, formulated especially for the proactive control of rodent fertility and launched during the past year, has quickly become the Company's biggest-selling product line, contributing approximately 52% of Q4 2024 revenue. Launch of Evolve™ Mouse: The Evolve Mouse product, a fertility solution to proactively control mouse infestations utilizing the same revolutionary breakthrough technology as Evolve Rat, was launched in May 2024 and quickly contributed 24% of Q4 2024 revenue.

Market expansion: The Company has continued to expand into new market opportunities, including the warehousing and distribution sector. Enhanced packaging options: The Company has launched new convenient 1.5 pound, 3 pound, and 6 pound pouches, which use 87% less plastic than traditional pails and provide for enhanced gross margins. Additionally, the Company has launched the new Lure bait dispenser to hang in trees, hang along fences, or anchor in gardens. Story Continues Operating Optimization Initiatives SenesTech today is announcing additional operating optimization initiatives designed to enhance efficiencies, streamline costs, and accelerate progress toward cash flow breakeven. These new optimization efforts are expected to further reduce expenses by $2 million on an annualized basis, which when coupled with higher gross margins, are anticipated to reduce the revenue threshold for cash flow breakeven to approximately $7 million annually, compared to $12 million as previously calculated. Management Discussion "We concluded a truly transformational year for SenesTech with strong financial results across the board, including quarterly revenues which were up 70% and quarterly gross profit margins of 61%. When coupled with improvement in our operational efficiencies through cost reductions, this resulted in our smallest quarterly Adjusted EBITDA loss in Company history as we advance our progress towards profitability," commented Joel Fruendt , CEO of SenesTech. "We are committed to executing a focused strategy that positions SenesTech for sustainable long-term success. By concentrating on our most impactful growth areas, improving cost efficiency, and streamlining operations, we are taking decisive steps to accelerate our path to profitability. We have a first-mover advantage with a disruptive approach to the multi-billion-dollar rodent control market, which positions us well to transform the rodent control market for years to come," Fruendt concluded. Use of Non-GAAP Measure Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. However, this measure is not intended to be a substitute for those financial measures reported in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has been included because management believes that, when considered together with the GAAP figures, it provides meaningful information related to our operating performance and liquidity and can enhance an overall understanding of financial results and trends. Adjusted EBITDA may be calculated by us differently than other companies that disclose measures with the same or similar term. See our attached financials for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the nearest GAAP measure.

Such forward-looking statements include, among others, our expectation that a new case study will be published detailing the success of Evolve in almond orchards, including a finding that by slowly placing the Evolve bait further away from the trees it actually lured the rats away from the crop altogether, highlighting the rat's fondness for the fertility control product; our expectation that our new optimization efforts will further reduce expenses by $2 million on an annualized basis; our anticipation that when coupled with lower cost of goods sold, the new optimization efforts will reduce the revenue target for cash flow breakeven to approximately $7 million annually, compared to $12 million historically; our belief that 2024 has been a transformational year with strong financial results; our belief that the increase in quarterly revenues and quarterly gross margins, coupled with improvement in our operational efficiencies through cost reduction resulted in our smallest quarterly Adjusted EBITDA loss in Company history; our belief that we are advancing towards profitability; our commitment to execute a focused strategy that positions us for sustainable long-term success; our belief that by concentrating on our most impactful growth areas, improving cost-efficiency, and streamlining operations, we are taking decisive steps to accelerate our path to profitability; and our belief that we are well positioned to transform the rodent control market for years to come due to our first mover advantage with a disruptive approach to the multi-billion dollar rodent control market.
