EnWave Announces First Quarterly Positive Net Income and Reports Consolidated Interim Financial Results for the Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2016

VANCOUVER, BC–(Marketwired – May 26, 2016) –
EnWave Corporation
(TSX VENTURE: ENW)
(FRANKFURT: E4U)
(“EnWave”, or the “Company”) today reported the Company’s consolidated interim financial results for the second quarter ended March 31, 2016. The Company reported consolidated revenue of $4,586,000, and a consolidated net income from continuing operations of $95,000 for the second quarter.

This quarter’s positive net income was a first in the history of the Company. The material increase in revenues was due to the continued expansion and accelerated distribution of Moon Cheese® through EnWave’s subsidiary, NutraDried LLP, and the continued growth in sales of royalty-bearing Radiant Energy Vacuum (“REV™”) machines.

EnWave also generated positive cash flow from operating activities for the six months ended March 31, 2016, prior to changes to non-cash working capital, of $874,000.

Significant additional achievements in the second quarter include:

  1. Receiving a purchase order for a 100kW REV™ machine from Gay Lea Foods Co-operative;
  2. Signing a royalty-bearing Commercial License Agreement with Eregli Agrosan and receiving a purchase order for REV™ machinery;
  3. Making significant milestones in design and construction of REV™ machines for two pharmaceutical partners; and,
  4. Signing a Technology Evaluation and License Option Agreement with a major Australasian Dairy Company.

EnWave’s Radiant Energy Vacuum (“REV™”) technology is well positioned to capture market share in both the food and pharmaceutical drying industries. The intrinsic value of using REV™ technology as an alternative to conventional options has been proven in several market verticals on a global basis. EnWave anticipates continued commercial success and growth in the worldwide deployment of REV™ technology.

EnWave’s annual and interim consolidated financial statements and MD&As are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on the Company’s website www.enwave.net/financials.

About EnWave

EnWave Corporation is a Vancouver-based industrial technology company developing commercial applications for its proprietary Radiant Energy Vacuum (REV™) dehydration technology. EnWave aims to sign royalty-bearing commercial licenses with leading food and pharmaceutical companies for the use of its revolutionary technology. To date, the Company has signed sixteen royalty-bearing commercial licenses with various companies, thereby opening up eight distinct market sectors for commercialization. In addition to these fifteen licenses, EnWave has formed a Limited Liability Partnership, NutraDried LLP, to develop, manufacture, market and sell all-natural cheese snack products within the United States of America under the Moon Cheese® brand.

EnWave is introducing REV™ technology as a new dehydration standard in the food and biological material sectors, with benefits including, but not limited to, a faster and cheaper method compared to freeze drying, with better end product quality than air drying or spray drying. EnWave currently has three commercial REV™ platforms:

1. nutraREV® (food industry applications): designed for quick, low-cost dehydration of fruits, vegetables, herbs, dairy products, meats and seafood, with benefits including improved nutritional content, appearance, flavor and texture relative to conventional methods.

2. quantaREV® (food industry applications): designed for high-volume, low-temperature dehydration of solids, liquids, granular or encapsulated products.

3. powderREV® (pharmaceutical applications): designed as a high-speed, lower-energy, continuous alternative to freeze drying for bulk dehydration of temperature-sensitive biomaterials (bacteria, cell-free extracts, enzymes, probiotics, food cultures, etc.).

In addition, EnWave is currently developing a new commercial REV™ platform:

1. freezeREV® (pharmaceutical applications): a multi-vial prototype technology designed to act as an accelerated freeze dryer to produce room-temperature stable biopharmaceuticals and reagents.
