Projected Farm Unit Economics Summary
AeroFarms has estimated future farm unit-level economics based on current farm performance and improvements
enabled by continuing development of technology.
Model 5 has estimated economics based on AeroFarms' April 2021 design for new farms
Model 6 is "performance spec” based, represented by the equivalent performance of a farm having (relative to the Model 5):
10% higher revenue, 10% lower COGS (excl. rent and depreciation), and 10% lower capex (incl. tenant improvements)
Model 7 represents the equivalent financial performance as a farm with further 10% improvements vs. Model 6
