BioLargo Strengthens its Balance Sheet by Eliminating Convertible Debt to Position Company for Growth

WESTMINSTER, CA / ACCESSWIRE / May 24, 2021 / BioLargo, Inc. (OTCQB:BLGO), a developer of sustainable technologies and full-service environmental engineering company, announced today that it has eliminated nearly all of its convertible debt. The announcement comes as a result of the company having paid off $406,000 in convertible debt that would have come due in August of 2021, through the payment of cash and equity, as reported on Form 8-K filed May 19, 2021. Other than debt owed by its partially owned subsidiary Clyra Medical Technologies, Inc., only Small Business Association and Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans totaling $464,000 ($314,000 of which has been applied for forgiveness), and $50,000 of fixed-price convertible debt (due in 2023) remain on BioLargo's balance sheet.

Dennis P. Calvert, President & CEO of BioLargo discussed the news: "This is quite an accomplishment considering just three years ago we had $7.6 million of debt on our balance sheet. With our financing commitment having over $6 million remaining, we are confident that we can continue to fund our operational needs as we launch our exciting new environmental technologies and grow our revenue."

BioLargo took significant risk three years ago by investing heavily in its environmental platform technologies and the infrastructure to support them, especially its patented low-energy advanced water treatment technology the Advanced Oxidation System (AOS), and the Aqueous Electrostatic Concentrator (AEC), an affordable and eco-friendly solution to treat water contaminated with per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) (learn more about the worldwide PFAS problem at our blog: https://biolargo.blogspot.com/2021/02/biolargo-answers-administrations-urgent.html). Since that time, the company has advanced both technologies to a point of commercial readiness, with the AOS have already been successfully deployed in several demonstration pilot projects.

BioLargo also made the bold move to form its own engineering company, BioLargo Engineering, Science & Technologies, LLC, located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Mr. Calvert commented, "Our engineering division has become a pillar of our company, having played a crucial role in the development and scaling up our AOS and AEC technologies. Our company-wide revenues also have grown significantly, helping make it possible to pay off the debt we used to finance these ambitious development efforts."

Mr. Calvert ended with, "With this debt behind us, our platform technologies ready for commercial launch, and key industry partnerships taking shape, it's time to grow our business."
