EnWave Reports Consolidated Interim Financial Results for the First Quarter Fiscal Year 2016

VANCOUVER, BC  - EnWave Corporation (TSX VENTURE: ENW) (FRANKFURT: E4U) ("EnWave", or the "Company") today reported the Company's consolidated interim financial results for the first quarter ended December 31, 2015. The Company reported consolidated revenue of $2,604,000 and a consolidated net loss of $483,000 for the first quarter. The material increase in revenues was due to the continued expansion and acceleration of Moon Cheese, revenue from commercial projects with two pharmaceutical partners and the sale of three smaller scale commercial Radiant Energy Vacuum ("REV") machines for use in the food processing industry.

Significant achievements in the first quarter included:

1. the expansion of Moon Cheese distribution in the USA and commencement of availability to Canada with the Major Global Coffee Chain;
2. additional USA distribution of Moon Cheese through major US grocery chains;
3. the extension of the Technology Evaluation and License Option ("TELOA") with Jack Links Protein Snacks;
4. the signing of a TELOA with Nature's Touch Frozen Foods for dehydrofrozen fruit products;
5. the commencement of manufacturing equipment under license with a Pharmaceutical Partner;
6. the signing of a commercial royalty bearing license with Agricola Industrial La Lydia SA of Costa Rica for fruit and cheese production; and
7. the closing of a $5 million "bought deal" private placement equity financing

Over the coming quarters, EnWave will continue to aggressively pursue its commercialization strategy through confirming additional REV machine orders, growing royalty streams with established royalty partners and the growth of NutraDried LLP's Moon Cheese sales. EnWave's mission is to disrupt the global dehydration industry through its licensed REV technology business model.

EnWave's annual and interim consolidated financial statements and MD&As are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on the Company's website www.enwave.net/financials.

About EnWave

EnWave Corporation is a Vancouver-based industrial technology company developing commercial applications for its proprietary Radiant Energy Vacuum (REV) dehydration technology. EnWave aims to sign royalty-bearing commercial licenses with leading food and pharmaceutical companies for the use of its revolutionary technology. To date, the Company has signed fifteen royalty-bearing commercial licenses with various companies, thereby opening up eight distinct market sectors for commercialization. In addition to these fifteen licenses, EnWave has formed a Limited Liability Partnership, NutraDried LLP, to develop, manufacture, market and sell all-natural cheese snack products within the United States of America under the Moon Cheese brand.

EnWave is introducing REV technology as a new dehydration standard in the food and biological material sectors, with benefits including, but not limited to, a faster and cheaper method compared to freeze drying, with better end product quality than air drying or spray drying. EnWave currently has three commercial REV platforms:

1. nutraREV (food industry applications): designed for quick, low-cost dehydration of fruits, vegetables, herbs, dairy products, meats and seafood, with benefits including improved nutritional content, appearance, flavor and texture relative to conventional methods.
2. quantaREV (food industry applications): designed for high-volume, low-temperature dehydration of solids, liquids, granular or encapsulated products.
3. powderREV (pharmaceutical applications): designed as a high-speed, lower-energy, continuous alternative to freeze drying for bulk dehydration of temperature-sensitive biomaterials (bacteria, cell-free extracts, enzymes, probiotics, food cultures, etc.).

In addition, EnWave is currently developing a new commercial REV platform:

1. freezeREV (pharmaceutical applications): a multi-vial prototype technology designed to act as an accelerated freeze dryer to produce room-temperature stable biopharmaceuticals and reagents.
