About this update from Laird Superfood, Inc.

Laird Superfood, Inc. (NYSE American: LSF) (“Laird Superfood,” the “Company”, “we”, and “our”), today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026. Jason Vieth, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The first quarter of 2026 marked a transformative period for Laird Superfood.
