1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Organization

Arcadia Biosciences, Inc. (the "Company," "Arcadia" or "management"), was incorporated in Arizona in 2002 and maintains its headquarters in Dallas, Texas. The Company was reincorporated in Delaware in March 2015.

Arcadia has leveraged its history as a leader in science-based approaches to develop high value products and drive innovation in the consumer goods industry. Since acquiring the assets of Zola in May 2021, Arcadia has provided consumers with a way to rehydrate, reset, and reenergize with Zola coconut water products. Previously, Arcadia developed products primarily in wheat, which it commercialized through the sales of food products, trait licensing and royalty agreements.

On May 26, 2025, Arcadia entered into a License Termination and Patent Non-Assert Agreement (the "Bioseed Agreement") with Bioseed Research India, a division of DCM Shriram Limited ("Bioseed"). Pursuant to the Bioseed Agreement, the parties agreed to terminate a license agreement previously entered into by Arcadia and Bioseed in 2012, Arcadia agreed to not assert its rights under a patent held by Arcadia regarding certain products commercialized or that may be commercialized by Bioseed, and Bioseed agreed that if as a result of any such commercialization by Bioseed any amounts become payable to a third party pursuant to an agreement previously entered into between Arcadia and the third party, Bioseed will pay such amounts to the third party. As a result, the related $1.0 million contingent liability was eliminated from the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of the end of the second quarter of 2025.

On March 28, 2025, Arcadia entered into an agreement with Bioceres Crop Solutions Corp. ("BIOX") pursuant to which BIOX agreed to transfer to the Company all rights and materials relating to certain soy traits that were included in licenses granted by the Company to BIOX in the November 2020 sale of Verdeca. In addition, BIOX agreed to pay a total of $750,000 to the Company. The Company agreed to transfer to BIOX all of the Company's granted patents, pending applications, related materials and documents related to the Company's reduced gluten and oxidative stability patents. In addition, the parties agreed to amend a previous agreement between the parties to eliminate any obligation to pay the Company future product royalties under the agreement. The Company recorded a gain of $750,000 on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss related to this transaction as the patents, pending applications and future product royalties have no carrying value. As of June 30, 2026, the Company has received the full payment of $750,000.

On December 4, 2024, Arcadia, Roosevelt Resources LP (“Roosevelt” or the “Partnership”) and Elliott Roosevelt, Jr. and David A. Roosevelt, in their capacities as representatives of the limited partners of the Partnership entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Exchange Agreement”) providing for the combination of the two companies in an all-stock transaction. Subject to the terms of the Exchange Agreement and to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Exchange Agreement, at the closing of the transactions Arcadia agreed to issue shares of its common stock to the limited partners and to the sole member of the general partner of Roosevelt (together, the “Limited Partners”) in exchange for all of the limited partnership and other equity interests of Roosevelt (the “Exchange”). The Exchange Agreement, as amended, provided that upon completion of the Exchange, the Limited Partners and the Arcadia stockholders prior to the closing were to own 90% and 10%, respectively, of the shares of common stock of Arcadia immediately after the closing. On February 14, 2025, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the shares to be issued in the transaction. The registration statement also included a proxy statement/prospectus relating to a meeting of stockholders of the Company to be held to vote on proposals to approve the issuance of shares pursuant to the Exchange Agreement and related proposals. On April 30, 2025, the parties to the Exchange Agreement entered into a First Amendment to Securities Exchange Agreement (the “Amendment”). The Amendment amended certain provisions of the Exchange Agreement, including amending the “Termination Date” provided for in one of the closing conditions described in the Exchange Agreement, which allowed a party to terminate the Exchange Agreement if the closing had not occurred by May 15, 2025, to be August 15, 2025 (the “Termination Provision”). On July 31, 2025, the Company filed with the SEC pre-effective Amendment No. 1 to the registration statement on Form S-4. On December 24, 2025, the Company received a notice from Roosevelt indicating that it was terminating the Exchange Agreement with immediate effect pursuant to the Termination Provision, as the closing of the Exchange had not occurred by the Termination Date specified in the Amendment. The Company does not believe that any break-up fee or similar payment is payable by either party in connection with termination of the Exchange Agreement.

On May 16, 2024, Arcadia sold the GoodWheat™ brand to Above Food Corp. ("Above Food") for net consideration of $3.7 million. The strategic decision to sell GoodWheat enabled the Company to monetize its intellectual property. The assets sold consisted primarily of grain and finished goods inventories, formulations and trademarks. Refer to Note 6 for further details of the transaction.

In August 2019, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Legacy Ventures Hawaii, LLC (“Legacy,” see Note 7) to grow, extract, and sell hemp products. The partnership Archipelago Ventures Hawaii, LLC (“Archipelago”), combined the Company’s genetic expertise and resources with Legacy’s experience in hemp extraction and sales. In October 2021, Arcadia and Legacy mutually agreed to wind down the cultivation activities of Archipelago, due to regulatory challenges and a saturated hemp market.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and are in the form prescribed by the SEC in instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and Arcadia Wellness.

The information included in these condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 26, 2026.

Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Going Concern

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities during the normal course of business. Since inception, the Company has financed its operations primarily through equity and debt financings. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $291.9 million and cash and cash equivalents of $4.2 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company had net loss of $10.7 million and net cash used in operations of $1.4 million. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, the Company had net loss of $2.3 million and net cash used in operations of $4.7 million.

With cash and cash equivalents of $4.2 million as of June 30, 2026, the Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to meet its anticipated cash requirements for at least the next 12 months from the issuance date of these financial statements, and thus raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company may seek to raise additional funds through debt or equity financings or sales of assets. The sale of additional equity would result in dilution, and could result in material dilution, to the Company’s stockholders. The incurrence of debt would result in debt service obligations, and the instruments governing such debt could provide for additional operating and financing covenants that would restrict operations. In addition, the Company may seek to raise additional funds through the sale of shares of Above Food Ingredients, Inc. ("AFII") that are held by the Company, at such times as those shares may be sold. See Note 6. If the Company is unable to secure adequate additional funding on terms acceptable to the Company, the Company may be forced to reduce spending, extend payment terms with suppliers, liquidate assets, or initiate dissolution and liquidation or bankruptcy proceedings. Any of these actions could materially harm the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.
