Paul Galvin, Chairperson and CEO of Safe & Green Holdings stated, “I am pleased to report we are witnessing unprecedented growth in our manufacturing sales pipeline. Given this projected growth, as well as the scalability of our manufacturing operations, and aggressive cost reductions to focus on our most profitable operations, we expect the Company to not only turn cash flow positive within the first 100 days of 2024, but begin generating meaningful cash flow throughout the balance of the year and beyond. This has truly been a team effort, from our management team to our employees in the factories."

“Based on an assessment of the current sales pipeline alone, we expect to achieve a factory utilization rate of more than 90% over the next two years,” continued Mr. Galvin. “Additionally, starting in 2026 and over a seven year period, we expect our SG Echo manufacturing subsidiary to generate meaningful revenue from the $800 million of planned development projects at Safe and Green Development Corporation (“SG DevCo”), of which Safe & Green Holdings is a majority owner. These projects are expected to utilize SG Echo’s full manufacturing capacity, even if no further projects were introduced.”

Tricia Kaelin, Chief Financial Officer of Safe & Green Holdings commented, “Given the robust and growing pipeline within our SG Echo manufacturing operations, we are now suspending certain medical projects and implementing a reduction in payroll and consulting fees for the medical division, which we expect will further reduce our annualized operating expenses by $2.5 million in 2024 and enable us to generate meaningful positive cash flow. We continue to look for ways to further reduce costs and increase profitability."
