MONTREAL, QC / ACCESS Newswire / July 14, 2026 / Loop Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ:LOOP) (the "Company," "Loop," "we," "us," or "our"), today reported its consolidated financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027 and provided status updates on its development projects.

Infinite Loop™ India

• Strategic India JV offtake LOI: In June 2026, Loop executed a Letter of Intent (LOI) for an initial multi-year offtake agreement with a major global apparel company. This LOI forms the framework for an ongoing collaboration targeting up to 15,000 metric tons annually of Loop's proprietary PET fiber-grade resin.

• Engineering continuing for India JV: Toyo Engineering India Private Limited is steadily advancing detailed engineering work for the India facility. Simultaneously, Loop's internal engineering team continues to meet project milestones, generating engineering services revenues for the Company.

• India JV project debt financing: The debt syndication process to fund construction of the India JV facility has advanced to the technology due diligence phase, representing an important step towards securing project capital.

European Partnership with Reed Societe Generale Group

• Status update: As previously announced, Infinite Loop Europe, our European JV with Reed Societe Generale Group which purchased a license to build a European facility using Loop's technology, has selected BASF Industriepark Lausitz in Schwarzheide, Germany, as the site for its first facility. This location provides a number of benefits including world class industrial infrastructure and a supportive regulatory environment aimed at strengthening the EU plastics recycling sector. The project is moving into the engineering and permitting phase which is expected to generate engineering services revenue for Loop in this fiscal year.

Financial highlights

Cash operating expenses* for the quarter were $1.6 million, reflecting a year-over-year decrease of $1.0 million. At the end of the third quarter, we had total available liquidity of $3.6 million. The Company remains actively focused on securing the necessary capital to fund its equity contribution for the ELITe India facility as well as ongoing pre-operational expenses. The Company is pursuing a variety of funding options including non-dilutive and strategic alternatives. These capital raising initiatives, along with anticipated engineering revenues derived from the India and Europe projects, are expected to fund Loop's ongoing operations through commercial start-up.

*Cash operating expenses include research & development and general & administrative expenses, less stock-based compensation expenses.

CEO Comment

"Our commercial momentum is continuing as we engage in constructive discussions with leading global apparel and consumer brands eager to secure Loop's virgin-quality polyester," said Daniel Solomita, Founder and CEO of Loop Industries. "This traction is demonstrated by our recent LOI with a major global apparel brand. Although long-term agreements fall outside their standard procurement practices, they executed this LOI to position themselves to secure a portion of our volume and help work towards their stated objectives of reducing their carbon footprint by increasing the recycled content in their products. Concurrently, our engineering teams are driving excellent progress in India and are fully prepared to deploy that expertise as we begin work on our European development."

Corporate Update Call

Senior Management of Loop will host a corporate update call, followed by a question-and-answer session, to discuss the Company's first quarter fiscal 2027 results and provide an update on recent commercial, strategic and project development activities.
