RiceBran Technologies Sells Golden Ridge Milling Facility

Asset Divestiture Further Streamlines Business as Part of Strategic Process

TOMBALL, TX / ACCESSWIRE / January 26, 2024 / RiceBran Technologies (OTC PINK:RIBT) ("RiceBran" or the "Company"), today announced that it has sold its Golden Ridge rice mill located in Wynne, Arkansas for $2.15 million.

The divestiture is expected to, based upon third quarter 2023 results, further narrow RiceBran's projected annual net loss by approximately $1.5 million while not jeopardizing the estimated $54.4 million in federal and $46.0 million in state net operating loss carryforwards that the Company had amassed as of December 31, 2022.

"This sale eliminates cash and working capital drags on the business' profitability, streamlining operations while preserving the Company's net operating loss carryforward assets," commented Eric Tompkins, RiceBran's Executive Chairman. "We continue to own and operate MGI, our barley and oats mill located in East Grand Forks, Minnesota. This transaction is the advancement of the strategic restructuring process undertaken by the Board of Directors. Today, RiceBran has streamlined its business and balance sheet, eliminating unprofitable operations. We can now shift our attention to RiceBran's future, as we explore a more sustainable way to take advantage of our tax assets and public listing to create value for shareholders."

Additional terms of the transaction will be disclosed in a Form 8-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").
