(1) Business Overview

Pressure Biosciences, Inc. (“we”, “our”, “the Company”) develops and sells innovative, broadly enabling, high pressure-based platform technologies and related consumables for the worldwide life sciences, agriculture, food and beverage, and other key industries. Our solutions are based on the unique properties of both constant (i.e., static) and alternating (i.e., pressure cycling technology, or “PCT”) hydrostatic pressure. PCT is a patented enabling technology platform that uses alternating cycles of hydrostatic pressure between ambient and ultra-high levels to safely and reproducibly control bio-molecular interactions (e.g., cell lysis, biomolecule extraction). Historically, our primary focus has been in the development of PCT-based products for biomarker and target discovery, drug design and development, biotherapeutics characterization and quality control, soil & plant biology, forensics, and counter-bioterror applications. In more recent years, major new market opportunities have emerged in the use of our pressure-based technologies in the following areas: (1) the use of our recently acquired, patented technology from BaroFold, Inc. (the “BaroFold” technology) to allow entry into the bio-pharma contract services sector, and (2) the use of our recently-patented, scalable, high-efficiency, pressure-based Ultra Shear Technology (“UST”) platform to (i) create stable nanoemulsions of otherwise immiscible fluids (e.g., oils and water) and to (ii) prepare higher quality, homogenized, extended shelf-life or room temperature stable low-acid liquid foods that cannot be effectively preserved using existing non-thermal technologies.

On February 8, 2021, PBI announced plans to acquire the assets of a global eco-friendly agrochemical supplier. On April 14, 2021, PBI finalized terms and executed a new letter of intent to purchase the assets of the agrochemical supplier. This opportunity is attractive as it has the potential of readily producing significant revenue, as well as the potential to apply the UST technology to improve some of the product line. In July 2021, a newly-formed subsidiary of PBI, PBI Agrochem, leased a warehouse in Carson City, NV, and hired a warehouse manager.
