## Exhibit 99.1

**Exhibit 99.1**

**Biofrontera Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results and Provides a Business Update**

Woburn, MA, Aug. 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Biofrontera Inc. (NASDAQ:BFRI) (the "Company"), a biopharmaceutical company specializing in the development and commercialization of photodynamic therapy in dermatology, today reported financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and provided a business update.

Highlights from the first six months of 2025 included the following:

● Total revenues for the second quarter of 2025 were $9.0 million, a 15% increase from the same period of the prior year

● For the first six months of 2025, revenue was $17.7 million, a 12% increase from the comparable period in 2024

● Cash and cash equivalents were $7.2 million as of June 30, 2025, compared with $5.9 million at December 31, 2024

● Agreed to major restructuring of relationship with Biofrontera AG, including acquisition of United States Intellectual Property (IP) and New Drug Applications (NDA) and control of manufacturing, supported by an addition $11 million in funding for the company

● US patent on revised formulation of Ameluz® granted, extending patent protection through to December 2043

● Announced last patient completing 1 year follow-up in superficial basal cell carcinoma (sBCC) Phase 3 study

● Completed patient enrollment in Phase 3 study with Ameluz® for mild to moderate actinic keratosis (AK) on the entire body and in Phase 2b study for the treatment of moderate to severe acne vulgaris

Hermann Luebbert, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Company, stated, "We have changed our approach to our business in 2025 by transforming our customer segmentation, focusing our strategy and using extended data analysis to support our sales team effectiveness. This led to two very gratifying quarters for us driven by customer growth and disciplined execution resulting in increased sales volume and higher revenues. In addition to Ameluz® treating pre-cancerous skin lesions on the face and scalp, we are very encouraged about the potential for Ameluz® to be used more broadly to treat AK on the entire body, and the potential label extension to basal cell carcinoma and acne vulgaris."

"In addition, we recently announced a fundamental change in our agreement with Biofrontera AG which includes acquiring all the rights, approvals and patents to Ameluz® and RhodoLED® in the United States. This has been a long process that began June 1, 2024 when we assumed control of all clinical studies relating to Ameluz® in the United States, a move that has given us direct oversight of trial efficiency and more effective cost management. We are now in the process of transferring the US IP, NDA, and manufacturing capabilities for Ameluz® and the RhodoLED® lamps. We will pay a monthly Ameluz® royalty of 12% in years where Ameluz® revenue in the US is less than $65 million, and 15% in years when revenue exceeds that threshold. The royalty replaces the former transfer pricing model — which required payment of 25% to 35% of the net sales price per tube depending on timing and indication. This will give us further savings on our cost of goods above those already generated by the earlier renegotiation of the transfer pricing model."

Prof. Luebbert concluded by saying "The $11 million investment we secured, the fundamental restructuring in our agreement with Biofrontera AG and the improvements we have made this year in our promotional strategy and sales effectiveness have led to significant increases in volume and revenue in the first half of 2025 and have positioned us strongly for the rest of the year and beyond".

**Second Quarter Financial Results**

Total revenues for the second quarter of 2025 were $9.0 million compared with $7.8 million for the second quarter of 2024. This increase was driven by both a 5% higher unit sales price and a 9.5% increase in sales volume of Ameluz® in the second quarter of 2025. The higher sales volume of Ameluz® was due to improvements in direct sales team effectiveness.

Total operating expenses were $14.1 million for the second quarter of 2025 compared with $12.9 million for the second quarter of 2024. Cost of revenues decreased by $1.7 million, or 41.8% as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. This was primarily due to the reduced Ameluz® cost agreed upon with Biofrontera AG in relation to taking over clinical trial costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $10.5 million for the second quarter of 2025 compared with $7.9 million for the second quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by a $3.4 million increase in legal costs, partially offset by $0.5 million in personnel savings within both the direct sales team and general and administrative staff and a $0.3 million decrease in miscellaneous general and administrative expenses.

The net loss for the second quarter of 2025 was $5.3 million, compared with a net loss of $0.3 million for the prior-year quarter. The increase in the net loss is attributed to the $5.4 million non-cash fluctuation in the change in fair value of warrants of in 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2025 was negative $5.1 million compared with negative $4.7 million for the second quarter of 2024, driven by higher legal costs offset by lower cost of goods sold. We look at Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as a better indication of ongoing operations and this measurement is defined as net income or loss excluding interest income and expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and certain other non-recurring or non-cash items.

Please refer to the table below which presents a GAAP to non- GAAP reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarters of 2025 and 2024.

**Six Month Financial Results**

Total revenues were $17.6 million for the first half of 2025 compared with $15.8 million for the first half of 2024. This 12% increase was driven by a higher unit sales price contributing $0.6 million and increased sales volume of Ameluz<sup>®</sup> contributing $1.0 million, as well as a $0.3 million increase in sales of the RhodoLED<sup>®</sup> Lamps. The higher sales volume of Ameluz<sup>®</sup> was due to improvements in direct sales team effectiveness.

Total operating expenses were $27.2 million for the first half of 2025 compared with $26.3 million for the first half of 2024. Increased legal expense was offset by reduced operational cost. Cost of revenues decreased from the prior year to $5.5 million for the first six months of 2025 compared to $8.0 million for the first half of 2024 due to the reduced transfer price agreed upon with Biofrontera AG in February 2024 in relation to taking over clinical development costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $19.2 million compared to $17.2 million in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to a $4.4 million increase in legal expenses. The increased legal expenses were partially offset by savings in personnel expenses of $0.9 million due to headcount fluctuations in our direct sales and administrative teams, as well as a decrease of $0.5 million in expenses relating to sales support functions and a decrease of $0.4 million in issuance costs.

Adjusted EBITDA was negative $9.5 million for the first half of 2024 compared with negative $9.3 million for the first half of 2024.
