BROADVIEW, Ill., March 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: IVFH) (“IVFH” or the “Company”), a national seller of gourmet specialty foods to professional chefs, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. For fiscal 2025, revenue increased 2.1% to $60.7 million compared to $59.4 million in 2024. Gross margin improved to 25.8% from 25.3% in the prior year. Digital Channels represented 54.0% of full-year revenue, National Distribution represented 21.3%, and Local Distribution represented 25.1%. In the fourth quarter of 2025, revenue declined 18.1% versus the prior-year quarter, with Digital Channels down 13.4%, National Distribution down 14.1%, and Local Distribution down 32.3%. The quarter reflected pressure across all three channels. While a significant amount of this pressure relates to ongoing headwinds, there are also a few items that affect comparability, which are discussed below. GAAP net income from continuing operations was $797 thousand compared to $685 thousand in the prior-year quarter, while non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA declined to $718 thousand from $1.3 million.
Gary Schubert, Chief Executive Officer of IVFH, remarked, “2025 reflected a period of operational assessment and repositioning for IVFH. As we worked across multiple channels and operating initiatives, it became clear where our systems, processes, and operating disciplines needed to improve to support growth with greater consistency, speed, and visibility. While our fourth quarter results reflected those challenges, they also sharpened our priorities and accelerated the actions now underway across the business. The opportunity in front of us remains real. We have meaningful customer relationships, a differentiated platform, and a much clearer understanding of what must be fixed and modernized. With that context, our operating focus is centered on the areas we believe have the greatest potential to improve transactability, reliability, and long-term scalability across the platform.”
“In Digital, our focus is on generating more transacting items across all eligible points of distribution, with greater selling frequency over time. We continue to develop and validate these operating metrics to ensure accuracy, consistency, and relevance to commercial performance prior to public reporting. Management’s focus in Digital is centered on the operational drivers of performance, including vendor onboarding, new transactable SKU introductions, point-of-distribution expansion, and item lifecycle management. The AI-enabled HUB, which soft launched in mid-January and officially launched in mid-February, has already improved workflow speed, first-time accuracy, and overall throughput in new item and new vendor setup. While this work will take time to convert fully into financial results, we believe it positions the business to become more scalable, more competitive, and more reliable over time.
“National Distribution was successfully relocated from Pennsylvania to Chicago, and while integration challenges created temporary disruption across invoicing and collections in Q4, the move also brought greater visibility into service execution and further aligned the business around our continuing operations. We experienced some sales impact from the loss of certain legacy Pennsylvania capabilities that did not continue after the move. In addition, we lost menu items to competition, not just through the normal airline-menu cycle where items come off menu as offerings change. We remain exposed to both dynamics: one is inherent to the channel, while the other reflects competitive demand trends that we must address directly. We are taking steps to improve our product and fulfillment cost structure, reinforce our value proposition, tighten execution, improve reliability, and continue building a Chicago-based platform that is easier to scale and better aligned with the business we intend to operate going forward.
“In Local Distribution, the commercial challenges and customer attrition that began in early 2025 and compounded through the year have begun to stabilize, with new leadership now in place in both Chicago and Denver. The teams remain focused on stabilizing operations, improving service execution, rebuilding trust, reacquiring lost customers, and creating new customer relationships. Beyond local commercial sales, these operations also serve an important broader role in supporting fulfillment across both our Digital and National channels. Chicago already supports those channels in a meaningful way, and it has taken time to begin leveraging Denver similarly. We were pleased to successfully ship our first Digital-channel orders from Denver in mid-February. Only a small number of items are currently listed, but we plan to expand that assortment substantially in Q2. That is an important early step in proving the viability of the Denver operation within our broader platform.”
Mr. Schubert continued, “Entering 2026, our priorities are centered on operational stabilization, systems modernization, and execution discipline. We are focused on getting this right—rebuilding the foundation so the business can operate with greater speed, reliability, and scalability. Our biggest challenge and our biggest opportunity lie in technology and process reliability. In the fourth quarter of 2025, we committed to a modernization path that begins with modernizing our ERP and extends into the operating disciplines that sit around it, including pricing governance, item setup, vendor onboarding, and end-to-end order flow. This work is necessary to support the business we have today, not the business we had years ago, and it will take time.
“We will continue to pursue growth opportunities, but we will do so selectively. Growth must be operationally supportable, strategically aligned, and capital disciplined. We are not focused on expanding into entirely new channels or businesses at this stage. Our immediate focus is stabilizing the core platform and modernizing the operating engine so that we can absorb growth rather than be disrupted by it.”
“One of our key objectives in 2026 is to improve liquidity and build a more durable cash reserve. As of December 31, 2025, unrestricted cash was approximately $927 thousand. Subsequent to year-end, we completed the sale of our Mountain Top, Pennsylvania facility, repaid the outstanding MapleMark Bank loan and interest in full, and further simplified the balance sheet. That transaction removed a non-core asset, eliminated the associated debt, released restricted cash, and meaningfully improved our financial flexibility as we focus on stabilization, modernization, and disciplined execution. Success in 2026 will not be defined only by revenue growth. It will also be defined by stronger operating discipline, improved liquidity, better systems alignment, and measurable progress against our modernization roadmap. Our objective is to build a more scalable, more disciplined, and more resilient IVFH. If we do that well, better financial outcomes will follow.”

| (4) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP metric. Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors because the information may allow investors to better evaluate ongoing business performance and certain components of the Company’s results. In addition, the Company believes that the presentation of these financial measures enhances an investor’s ability to make period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s operating results. This information should be considered in addition to the results presented in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered a substitute for the GAAP results. | |||||||||
| (5) Adjusted Net Income accounts for the impact of non-core expenses including addback for one-time organizational restructure expenses, gains or losses on sale of assets or subsidiaries, tradename impairments, amortization expense, expense on the extinguishment of debt, and stock related expenses in both 2024 and 2023 | |||||||||
| (6) GAAP weighted average shares outstanding. | |||||||||
| (7) Adjusted Gross profit is gross profit adjusted to remove the impact of inventory reserve adjustments or non-recurring inventory related gains or losses. | |||||||||
| (8) Maintenance Capital Expenditures is a component of “Acquisition of property and equipment (GAAP)” on the consolidated statement of cash flows. It represents management’s assumptions of capital spending to maintain the company’s current level of operations. It does not include expenditures on acquisitions (less cash acquired), nor does it include other capital expenditures made to fund growth of the current business. | |||||||||
| (9) Adjusted Free Cash Flow is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less interest expense, income tax expense, and maintenance capital expenditures. The company believes adjusted free cash flow is useful to investors in understanding how existing cash flow from operations before working capital changes and non-recurring items after maintenance capital expenditures (which we believe the best proxy for over time is Adjusted EBITDA less interest expense, income tax expense, and maintenance capital expenditures) is utilized as a source of growing our business. Adjusted Free Cash Flow is not a measure of cash available for discretionary expenditures since the company has certain non-discretionary obligations that were not deducted from the measure. | |||||||||
