**ImmuCell Announces Unaudited Financial Results** 

**for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2026**

***<u>For Immediate Release</u>***

**PORTLAND, Maine** – **May 14, 2026** – ImmuCell Corporation (Nasdaq: ICCC) ("ImmuCell" or the "Company"), an animal health biologics company that develops and markets products to improve calf health and productivity, today announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.

**<u>Management</u>**<u>'</u>**<u>s Discussion:</u>**

"Today we are reporting net income of $1.9 million for the first quarter of 2026, which is an increase of $0.5 million compared to the first quarter of 2025," commented Timothy C. Fiori, Chief Financial Officer of ImmuCell. "These results were driven by 28.4% growth in product sales to $10.4 million and an expansion of gross margins to 45.0% that reflects higher volumes, manufacturing efficiencies, and price realization. ImmuCell generated $3.4 million free cash flow in the first quarter of 2026, improving its cash position to $6.8 million as of March 31, 2026, while maintaining a healthy level of inventory on hand after meeting peak seasonal demand these past two quarters."

"We had a record revenue quarter driven by high seasonal demand from the cow-calf segment and an increase in our market share in the U.S. scours biologicals market by approximately 3% of animals treated," explained Bobbi Brockmann, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing at ImmuCell. "As we move past our peak season, revenue traditionally moderates mid-year, and year over year growth rates will be impacted by the large backorder cleared in the second quarter of 2025. However, our market share gains give us confidence in our current strategy of investing in increased customer contact."

"ImmuCell had a very successful start to 2026," said Olivier te Boekhorst, President and CEO of ImmuCell. "We increased average output from approximately 380,000 manufacturing units per month in 2025 to more than 450,000 per month in the first quarter of 2026, driven by yield improvements from our existing plant," continued Mr. te Boekhorst. "We are planning a significant First Defense® capacity expansion and we are pleased to announce that we recently settled all disputes with our former contract manufacturer for a net payment to ImmuCell of $2 million that we intend to deploy toward this expansion. We are laser-focused on our First Defense® business and will also continue to invest in commercial execution and ongoing manufacturing yield improvement."

**<u>Certain Financial Results:</u>**

● First quarter 2026 product sales increased 28.4%, to approximately $10.4 million, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2025.

**<u>Balance Sheet Data as of March 31, 2026:</u>**

Non-GAAP Financial Measures: Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position or cash flow that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included in or excluded from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures included in this press release should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, the comparable measure prepared in accordance with GAAP.

We believe that considering the non-GAAP measure of Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) assists management and investors by looking at our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis excluding certain charges from our reported income before income taxes. We calculate EBITDA as described in the following table and reconciled to the most comparable GAAP financial measure:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | Three Months Ended March 31, | Three Months Ended March 31, |
| (In thousands) | 2026 | 2025 |
| Income before income taxes | $1954 | $1449 |
| Interest expense (excluding debt issuance and debt discount costs) | 97 | 117 |
| Depreciation | 528 | 671 |
| Amortization (including debt issuance and debt discount costs) | 3 | 16 |
| EBITDA | $2582 | $2253 |

---

EBITDA includes stock-based compensation expense (which is a non-cash expense that management adds back to EBITDA when assessing its cash flows) of approximately $138,000 and $52,000 during the quarters ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, respectively. Cash payments to satisfy debt repayment obligations and to make capital expenditure investments are other uses of cash that are not included in the calculation of EBITDA, which management also considers when assessing its cash flows.
