Eevia Health has been repositioning for global growth after losing a significant portion of its revenue from a major U.S. customer in 2023. The company is now working with several global nutraceutical brands and focusing on polyphenol-rich botanical extracts from Arctic plants. Eevia plans to close its manufacturing site in Finland due to a lack of public and non-dilutive funding and move production to BIOTEP in Tromsø, Norway, which offers advanced facilities and reduced costs. This move will impact up to eight employees in Finland, but Eevia will maintain its core functions in sales, R&D, and market development. The partnership with Nofima and BIOTEP will allow Eevia to optimize production and innovate without major upfront investments. Eevia aims to improve profitability and sustainability by converting side-stream materials into sellable products. The company is focused on restoring profitability and cash flow through strategic moves and partnerships. Eevia Health specializes in sustainable bioactive extracts from Nordic plants and berries, offering ingredients for gut health, cellular protection, and inflammation, and operates a modern production facility in Finland.
Eevia Health Plc, a company specializing in sustainable bioactive extracts, is facing ongoing liquidity challenges. Despite reducing operating costs and recovering some revenue after losing a major customer in July 2023, the company continues to struggle financially, operating with negative EBITDA. Eevia has conducted two rights issues, raising nearly €2 million in equity, but has been unable to secure non-dilutive funding from Finnish institutions, with several funding applications rejected. The management has been working on a turnaround plan involving new sales contracts and cost optimization, but the lack of financial backing has led to some investors withdrawing support. Eevia plans to shift R&D and production to more supportive regions to address funding gaps. The company is implementing an urgent plan to generate cash by selling inventory, reducing costs, and seeking a bridge loan. Eevia sees commercial opportunities through recent sales contracts but needs capital to realize them. The company aims to reorganize privately, avoiding public restructuring. Audit processes have been delayed due to financial uncertainties, and asset valuations are being conservatively adjusted. Despite these challenges, Eevia remains committed to protecting shareholders and creditors and continues to explore strategic options.

Eevia ingick också ett långsiktigt avtal om FENO-CHAGA™ Organic med en strategisk partner.

The Corporation, a leader in specialty ingredients for health, beauty, and wellness industries, has entered a new global supply agreement with Eevia after a 20-month collaboration. This partnership, which began with a non-disclosure agreement in October 2023, involved feasibility studies and trials confirming the safety and readiness of Feno-Chaga™ Organic, an extract from Chaga mushrooms. The five-year agreement includes minimum sales volumes and quality standards, with the Partner responsible for marketing and sales. Eevia will focus on manufacturing while the Partner handles clinical research and market expansion. This arrangement allows Eevia to grow revenue and allocate resources to other products.

In the first quarter of 2025, Eevia reported a 78% increase in net sales revenues compared to the previous quarter, although there was a 30% decrease compared to the same quarter in 2024. The company has seen a positive underlying sales trend over the past six quarters and has developed a new product category called "High-Strength Extracts." Gross profit increased by 87% from the previous quarter, with a gross margin of 59%. Management focused on reducing fixed costs, resulting in decreased personnel and operating expenses. However, EBITDA was negative at KEUR -166, and the net result after tax was KEUR -499. Cash flow from operations was negative, partly due to reduced payables. A rights issue was completed to address a funding gap, but further funding measures are being prepared. Inventory write-downs for 2024 were made after the Year-End Report. Plans for a new manufacturing facility in Finland are on hold, with a focus on improving the existing facility in Kauhajoki. The divestment of IP related to Retinari™ was completed, and Marinus Blåbjerg Sørensen was elected to the Board.

Eevia Health Plc received an accelerated order for their organic elderberry extract, FENO-SAMBUCUS™ 7 ORGANIC, from a U.S. nutraceutical brand due to higher-than-expected demand.

Several major U.S. companies are urgently seeking alternative sources for plant-based ingredients due to high import tariffs on Chinese products. Eevia Health has received multiple requests from U.S. buyers looking for European-origin supplies, as tariffs are lower. Although the U.S. tariffs are seen as temporary, their uncertain duration has led to increased purchasing and procurement strategies. Eevia sees potential short-term sales opportunities, especially in low-concentrate extracts and powders, and is assessing logistics and raw material availability to handle larger orders. This situation could enhance Eevia’s position as a reliable European supplier and underscores the importance of regional supply chain resilience.
