Lifecore Biomedical Receives Accelerated Payment of Remaining $10 Million in Proceeds From Prior Equipment Sale


Lifecore Biomedical, Inc. recently announced it has received the remaining $10 million in proceeds from the previously disclosed sale of its excess high-speed, multi-purpose 10-head isolator filler. The buyer elected to complete the full payment ahead of schedule, opting to deliver the remaining balance as a lump sum rather than over the originally agreed 18-month installment plan. Lifecore had previously received $7 million at the close of the $17 million transaction in early 2025.

“This welcome development further strengthens our balance sheet and underscores the disciplined capital management approach we are applying across the business,” said Ryan D. Lake, chief financial officer of Lifecore. “Combined with the recent installation of our high-speed 5-head filler, which supports up to $300 million in annual revenue generating capacity, this accelerated payment adds to the positive momentum we are building as we execute our long-term growth strategy. We remain focused on optimizing operations, aligning investments with strategic priorities, and delivering sustainable value to our customers and shareholders.”

As announced in January 2025, Lifecore sold the uninstalled 10-head isolator filler to a non-competitive buyer for $17 million, aligning its capital assets with operational and commercial needs.
