WINDSOR, Ontario, Sept. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NEXE Innovations Inc.

NEXE commercialized the latest version of its BPI-certified compostable coffee pod in November 2024, and since then has entered into five different collaborations in both the U.S. and Canada. Initial feedback from partners has been positive, including from those who have tested a limited number of SKUs. As market awareness and demand increases, our partners continue to expand their offerings of the NEXE fully compostable coffee pod. To date, over 50 SKUs have been developed, and an additional 10 SKUs are expected to be introduced over the next few weeks. Repeat order volumes have increased over time, and we anticipate continued interest in our compostable pod offerings.

NEXE aims to provide a high-quality coffee pod that is designed to deliver a premium brewing experience at a price point comparable to conventional plastic alternatives. What we believe makes the NEXE pod stand out is its patent-protected extraction and pod structure, which is designed to extract coffee in a manner similar to a French press, due to a faceplate within the pod that compresses the coffee during brewing. The pod contains no persistent microplastics and is intended to be more environmentally friendly than the non-compostable pods currently on the market. NEXE holds several patents that protect its technology, including patents for pod components, pod structures, and manufacturing equipment.

NEXE is working towards a strategy aimed at increasing production volumes and scaling operations. NEXE continues to exercise disciplined capital management in response to current market conditions. The Company currently maintains a cash position that we believe is sufficient to support our ongoing business strategy. At the end of Q4 2025, our total cash position is $9.3 million and investments in term deposits and GICs total $3.0 million. NEXE’s debt position is minimal, with its debt outstanding at $396,741 related to an interest free government loan. NEXE’s commitments at May 31, 2025, were $1.4 million.

“We are excited that some of our initial partners that were testing our product are expanding into broader product offerings of the fully compostable coffee pod,” stated Ash Guglani, President, NEXE Innovations. “We believe as the market becomes more familiar with our fully compostable coffee pod, consumer adoption will accelerate and we will be able to expand our market presence.”

With repeat orders increasing, positive partner feedback, and a strong financial position, we believe NEXE is just scratching the surface of its potential in the broader coffee pod market.

2025 Results:

Revenue: Revenue increased to $307,543 (2024 – $149,264) reflecting sales to multiple commercial partners.

Cost of goods sold: The cost of goods sold was $780,028 (2024 – $333,553). The cost of goods sold included non-cash expenses, such as depreciation related to production machinery and equipment. Depreciation in cost of goods sold increased as new equipment has come online.

Selling, general and administrative: Selling, General and Administrative expenses increased to $3,989,112 (2024 – $3,646,171) largely due to higher legal and professional costs. The management team continues to monitor expenditures and allocates resources in line with strategic priorities.
