Exhibit 99.1 Mama’s Creations Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2027 Financial Results Second Quarter Revenue Grows 55% to $54.6 Million; Net Income Increases 101% to $2.6 Million with Adjusted EBITDA Up 69% to $5.5 Million; Cash Position Grows to $138.6 Million EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ – September 3, 2026 – Mama’s Creations, Inc. (Nasdaq: MAMA), a leading national marketer, manufacturer and distributor of fresh deli prepared foods, has reported its financial results for the second quarter ended July 31, 2026. Financial Summary: Three Months Ended July 31, $ in millions 2026 2025 % Increase Revenues $ 54.6 $ 35.2 55.0% Gross Profit $ 13.1 $ 8.8 49.1% Operating Expenses $ 10.1 $ 7.1 42.6% Net Income $ 2.6 $ 1.3 100.9% Earnings per Share (Diluted) $ 0.06 $ 0.03 100.0% Adj. EBITDA (non-GAAP) $ 5.5 $ 3.3 68.9% Second Quarter Fiscal 2027 & Subsequent Operational Highlights: ● Launched over a dozen new placements during the second quarter — more than 60% using chicken bottoms — the majority of which were cross-sells that brought products from the Company’s expanded brand family into banners Mama’s already serves, including Publix, Winn-Dixie, Albertsons and Shaw’s. ● Selected for Costco second half multi-vendor mailer (MVM) — the retailer’s most productive promotional vehicle — across all eight regions nationally. Mama’s Costco business has grown from approximately $0.5 million four years ago to over $25 million last fiscal year. ● Approved over two dozen new placements for third quarter delivery — headlined by the Company’s first-ever planned launch in banner Kroger, beginning with four items in over 100 stores across the Louisville division, alongside expanded placements at Albertsons, BJ’s, Sam’s Club, Ahold, Food Lion, Fresh Thyme, Sheetz, Shaw’s and Winn-Dixie. ● Officially opened the East Rutherford expansion, adding critical freezer and refrigeration storage, which will result in lower outside storage fees, while building out upgraded locker rooms, break rooms and training spaces. ● Completed a public offering of common stock in July 2026, including full exercise of the underwriters’ option, for net proceeds of approximately $108.6 million to support future M&A initiatives.

● Invited to attend leading investor conferences nationally, including the BMO Farm to Market Conference, Craig-Hallum Institutional Investor Conference, TD Cowen Future of the Consumer Conference, William Blair Growth Conference, Oppenheimer Consumer Growth Conference, and the D.A. Davidson Consumer Conference. ● Cash and cash equivalents as of July 31, 2026 grew to $138.6 million, compared to $20.0 million as of January 31, 2026. The increase was primarily driven by the net proceeds of the Company’s July common stock offering, together with $11.9 million of cash generated from operations during the first six months of the fiscal year. Management Commentary Adam L. Michaels, Chairman and CEO of Mama’s Creations, said: “The second quarter was another step-change quarter for Mama’s. Thanks to the creativity of our sales team, the resilience of our operations team and the increased capacity from the September 2025 Bay Shore acquisition, revenue grew 55% to $54.6 million and adjusted EBITDA grew 69% to $5.5 million. Though the real story of the quarter is not the impressive growth rate, but the shape of it. Every bottom-line metric grew faster than revenue year-over-year, with net income more than doubling and operating expenses shrinking as a percent of revenue. Gross margin turned back up sequentially as the items we launched in Q1 moved toward steady-state production. That is exactly the sequence we told you to expect: invest into the launch, then harvest the leverage. “We also transformed our balance sheet. In July we completed a public offering for approximately $108.6 million in net proceeds, ending the quarter with a $138.6 million cash war chest. Combined with our strong operating cash flow, that is a decisive change in our capacity to pursue the accretive M&A that is central to our path to $1 billion in revenue — and from a position of strength rather than necessity. Our M&A pipeline is active, and our criteria have not changed: businesses that broaden our one-stop-shop platform, bring premium customers or capabilities we do not have today, and are accretive from day one. With this strong balance sheet, we can credibly pursue the right asset when it becomes available. And as always, regardless of the size of our growing war chest, we will remain as steadfast and disciplined in our approach as we did four years ago when we started this journey. “Catapult – the fourth of our 4 Cs – is where this quarter really showed itself. We won over a dozen new placements, more than 60% of them built using chicken ‘bottoms,’ and the majority were cross-sells: bringing items a customer did not previously buy from us into banners we already serve. That is the one-stop-shop strategy at work. The key win was Costco, which selected us for a second half multi- vendor mailer — their most productive promotion — in all eight regions nationally. We have taken that business from roughly $0.5 million four years ago to over $25 million last year, and having all eight regions eagerly sign up tells me Anna Mancini’s recipe is doing just fine west of the Mississippi. And next month we officially launch in banner Kroger for the first time, beginning with four items in over 100 stores across the Louisville division — the third and final leg of the ‘big three’ retailer targets we laid out at our past investor days. “To conclude, the combination of 55% revenue growth, expanding operating leverage, a $138.6 million cash position, and a category moving decisively in our direction gives us more confidence than ever in our ability to deliver sustained, profitable growth and long-term value for our shareholders,” concluded Michaels.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2027 Financial Results Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 increased 55.0% to $54.6 million, as compared to $35.2 million in the same year-ago quarter. The increase was primarily due to the ramp of the new branded items we launched with major retailers in the first quarter, item expansion at new and existing customers, and the contribution of the Bay Shore acquisition. Gross profit increased 49.1% to $13.1 million, or 24.0% of total revenues, in the second quarter of fiscal 2027, as compared to $8.8 million, or 24.9% of total revenues, in the same year-ago quarter, even with $1 million more trade versus prior year. Importantly, the prior year was prior to the Company’s acquisition of Bay Shore. Gross margin improved sequentially from 23.6% in the first quarter as the new packaging technologies and protein form factors deployed to support the Q1 new product launches moved toward steady-state production. We remain on track toward the Company’s mid-to-high-20% corporate gross margin target. Operating expenses totaled $10.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2027, as compared to $7.1 million in the same year-ago quarter. As a percentage of revenue, operating expenses declined 160 basis points to 18.5% from 20.1% in the prior-year quarter, demonstrating the improved operating leverage in the model as it scales. The change in absolute dollars was primarily attributable to the Bay Shore acquisition. Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 increased 100.9% to $2.6 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, as compared to net income of $1.3 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the same year-ago quarter. Second quarter net income totaled 4.7% of revenue, as compared to 3.6% in the same year-ago quarter. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, increased 68.9% to $5.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2027, as compared to $3.3 million in the same year-ago quarter. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded to 10.1% of revenue from 9.3% a year ago. Turning to the balance sheet. Cash and cash equivalents as of July 31, 2026 totaled $138.6 million, as compared to $20.0 million as of January 31, 2026. The increase was driven primarily by approximately $108.6 million of net proceeds from the July common stock offering, together with $11.9 million of cash provided by operating activities during the first six months of fiscal 2027. As of July 31, 2026, total debt stood at $4.8 million.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures This press release includes the following non-GAAP measure – adjusted EBITDA, which is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of financial performance. The company believes this non-GAAP measure, when considered together with the corresponding GAAP measures, provides useful information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to the company’s results of operations. However, this non-GAAP measure has significant limitations in that it does not reflect all the costs and other items associated with the operation of the company’s business as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the company’s non-GAAP measures may be calculated differently and are therefore not comparable to similar measures by other companies. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP. For a definition and reconciliation of EBITDA to net income, its corresponding GAAP measure, please see the reconciliation table shown in this press release below.
