AMMO, Inc. New Plant Manufacturing .50 BMG (M33) High Accuracy AMMUNITION

Current .50 BMG Capacity Capable of Adding $80 million in Revenue

Preparations Underway to Load .50 BMG Armor Piercing & Armor Piercing Incendiary

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Oct. 12, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AMMO, Inc. (Nasdaq: POWW, POWWP) (“AMMO” or the “Company”) the owner of GunBroker.com, the largest online marketplace serving the firearms and shooting sports industries, and a leading vertically integrated producer of high-performance ammunition and components, is pleased to announce it has begun both manufacturing and domestic distribution of its .50 BMG (M33) High Accuracy ammunition out of its newly opened Wisconsin plant.

While its new 185,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art manufacturing facility was being constructed within budget and on schedule, AMMO continued its investment in manufacturing assets for deployment in the new plant to increase capacity and answer the bell for market demands. One such example is the new .50 BMG manufacturing line now operating at the Wisconsin facility. Product has successfully run off the line, passed testing and shipped domestically. The Company’s market leading armor piercing (“AP”) and armor piercing incendiary (“API”) with technology developed and refined over the past 12-18 months is presently in the process of load development, loading and testing to be ready for legally authorized distribution.

Following AMMO’s Spring 2022 donation of 1 million rounds of ammunition to support the Ukrainian MOD’s opposition to Russia’s unlawful and violent invasion, we have continued to receive regular and increasing inquiries for ammunition from European (principally Eastern European) customers for small arms ammunition, with a focus on larger rounds and certainly .50 BMG in the ball, AP and API varieties. Even when fully operational, AMMO reasonably anticipates demand will quickly outstrip the Company’s .50 BMG capacity of 2 million rounds/month (e.g., 24 million rounds/year) such that production expansion opportunities are being pursued with proper planning in place. At current capacity and subject to product mix, AMMO’s .50 BMG line is capable of generating an additional $80 million in annual revenue to the top line.
