LIVE VENTURES INCORPORATED

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2022 AND 2021

(dollars in thousands, except per share)

Note 1: Background and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Live Ventures Incorporated, a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Live Ventures” or the “Company”). Live Ventures is a diversified holding company with a strategic focus on value-oriented acquisitions of domestic middle-market companies. The Company has four operating segments: Retail, Flooring Manufacturing, Steel Manufacturing, and Corporate and Other. The Retail segment includes (i) Vintage Stock, Inc. (“Vintage Stock”), which is engaged in the retail sale of new and used movies, music, collectibles, comics, books, games, game systems and components and (ii) ApplianceSmart, Inc. (“ApplianceSmart”), which, until April 1, 2022 when the Company ceased operations, was engaged in the sale of new major appliances through a retail store (see Note 15). The Flooring Manufacturing segment included Marquis Industries, Inc. (“Marquis”), which is engaged in the manufacture and sale of carpet and the sale of vinyl and wood floorcoverings. The Steel Manufacturing Segment includes Precision Industries, Inc. (“Precision Marshall”), which is engaged in the manufacture and sale of alloy and steel plates, ground flat stock and drill rods.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for audited financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, this interim information includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The results of operations for three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2022. The financial information included in these statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto as of September 30, 2021 and for the fiscal year then ended included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 28, 2021 (the “2021 10-K”).

Coronavirus

The COVID-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic has resulted in changes in global supply of certain products. The effects of the pandemic have created significant uncertainties and continue to have an unprecedented impact on the U.S. economy as federal, state, and local governments react to it. These significant uncertainties and unprecedented impacts include, but are not limited to, an adverse effect on the economy; the Company’s supply chain partners; its employees and customers; customer sentiment in general; and traffic within shopping centers, and, where applicable, malls, containing its stores. As the pandemic continues, consumer fear about becoming ill, as well as recommendations or mandates from federal, state, and local authorities to avoid large gatherings of people or self-quarantine, are continuing; this has already affected, and may continue to affect, traffic to retail stores. The continued effects of the pandemic could materially adversely affect the near-term and long-term revenues, earnings, liquidity, and cash flows, and may require a variety of responsive actions, including but not limited to, employee furloughs, reduced store hours, store closings, expense reductions or discounting of pricing of products—all in an effort to mitigate such impacts. The extent of the uncertainties and impacts of the pandemic on the Company’s business and financial results will depend largely on future developments, including the duration of the pandemic within the U.S., the impact on capital and financial markets and the related impact on consumer confidence and spending—all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. This situation with the pandemic is continually changing and additional effects of which the Company is not aware may occur.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its majority owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control, and a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The Company records a non-controlling interest within stockholders’ equity for the portion of the entity’s equity attributed to the consolidated entities that are not wholly owned. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These reclassifications have no material effect on the reported financial results.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant estimates made in connection with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the estimated reserve for doubtful accounts, the estimated reserve for excess and obsolete inventory, estimated warranty reserve, estimated fair value for stock-based compensation, fair values in connection with the analysis of goodwill, other intangibles and long-lived assets for impairment, valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, and estimated useful lives for intangible assets and property and equipment.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduces a new approach to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments based on expected losses instead of incurred losses. It also modified the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and provided a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and the interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this new accounting standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures; however, adoption of this ASU is anticipated to have no material impact on the Company's financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12 - Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”). ASU 2019-12 is part of the FASB’s overall simplification initiative and seeks to simplify the accounting for income taxes by updating certain guidance and removing certain exceptions. The updated guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company implemented this update as of December 31, 2021. The adoption of this ASU had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04 - Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), codified as ASC 848 (“ASC 848”). The purpose of ASC 848 is to provide optional guidance to ease the potential effects on financial reporting of the market-wide migration away from Interbank Offered Rates to alternative reference rates. ASC 848 applies only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference a reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. Effective December 31, 2021, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) replaced the USD London Interbank-Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) for most financial benchmarking. The guidance may be applied upon issuance of ASC 848 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this new accounting standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, however, adoption of this ASU is anticipated to have no material impact on the Company's financial statements.

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options.

Note 3: Acquisitions

Acquisition of Kinetic

On June 28, 2022, Precision Marshall (“Precision”) acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of The Kinetic Co., Inc. (“Kinetic”), a Wisconsin corporation, which was accomplished through a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”). In connection with the Purchase Agreement, Precision also entered into a Real Estate Purchase Agreement with Plan B-6, LLC, an affiliate of Kinetic, pursuant to which Precision received all of Kinetic's right, title, and interest in and to the land and improvements (collectively, the “Real Estate”) that Kinetic uses in its operations. The combined purchase price, which is subject to certain post-closing adjustments, for the Kinetic shares and Real Estate was approximately $24.6 million, which was funded with borrowings under the company’s credit facility, proceeds from sale-leaseback of the Real Estate, a subordinated promissory note to in the amount of $3.0 million to the Seller of Kinetic, contingent earn-out liability, valued at $997,000, and cash on-hand.

As of the date of acquisition, Precision entered into a sale and leaseback agreement with a third-party, independent of the Kinetic sellers, for the Real Estate. The sale price of the Real Estate was approximately $8.9 million, subject to closing fees of approximately $547,000.

The provisions of the lease agreement include a 20-year lease term with two five-year renewal options. The base rent under the lease agreement is $50,000 per month for the first year of the term and a 2% per annum escalator. The Lease Agreement is a “net lease,” such that the lessees are also obligated to pay all taxes, insurance, assessments, and other costs, expenses, and obligations of ownership of the Real Property incurred by Moss. Due to the highly specialized nature of the leased assets, the Company currently believes that it is more likely than not that each of the two five-year options will be exercised. The proceeds, net of closing fees, from the sale-leaseback were used to assist in funding the acquisition of Kinetic.

Under the preliminary purchase price allocation, the Company recognized goodwill of approximately $2.2 million, which is calculated as the excess of both the consideration exchanged and liabilities assumed as compared to the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired. The values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on their estimates of fair value available as of June 28, 2022, as calculated by an independent third-party firm. Goodwill arising from the acquisition is expected to be fully deductible for tax purposes. The table below outlines the purchase price allocation of the purchase for Kinetic to the acquired identifiable assets, liabilities assumed and goodwill (in $000’s):

Total purchase price	$	24,642
Accounts payable		2,592
Accrued liabilities		1,622

Note 4: Leases

The Company leases retail stores, warehouse facilities, and office space. These assets and properties are generally leased under noncancelable agreements that expire at various dates through 2042 with various renewal options for additional periods. The agreements, which have been classified as operating leases, generally provide for minimum—and in some cases percentage—rent, and require us to pay all insurance, taxes, and other maintenance costs. As a result, the Company recognizes assets and liabilities for all leases with lease terms greater than 12 months. The amounts that are recognized reflect the present value of remaining lease payments for all leases. The discount rate used is an estimate of the Company’s blended incremental borrowing rate, based on information available associated with each subsidiary’s debt outstanding at lease commencement. In considering the lease asset value, the Company considers fixed and variable payment terms, prepayments, and options to extend, terminate, or purchase. Renewal, termination, or purchase options only affect the lease term used for determining lease asset value if the option is reasonably certain to be exercised.

As discussed in Note 3 above, on June 28, 2022, Precision acquired all of the capital stock of Kinetic and certain Real Estate assets used in its operations. As of the date of execution of the Real Estate purchase, Precision sold the Real Estate, in exchange for which Precision entered into a 20-year lease, with two options to renew for an additional five years each. This transaction is being treated as a sales and leaseback arrangement for accounting purposes, as described in ASC 842 “Leases”.

As of June 30, 2022, the weighted average remaining lease term is 16.9 years and our weighted average discount rate is 5.82%. Total cash payments for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were approximately $7.2 million and $2.1 million, respectively. Additionally, we obtained right-of-use assets in exchange for lease liabilities of approximately $7.6 million and $8.6 million upon commencement of finance and operating leases, respectively, during the nine months ended June 30, 2022.

The following table details our right of use assets and lease liabilities as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021 (in $000’s):

Bank of America Revolver Loan

On January 31, 2020, Marquis entered into an amended $25.0 million revolving credit agreement (“BofA Revolver”) with Bank of America Corporation (“BofA”). The BofA Revolver is a five-year, asset-based facility that is secured by substantially all of Marquis’ assets. Availability under the BofA Revolver is subject to a monthly borrowing base calculation. Marquis’ ability to borrow under the BofA Revolver is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including meeting all loan covenants under the credit agreement with BofA. As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding balance was approximately $7.3 million.

Loans with Encina Business Credit, LLC

On July 14, 2020, Precision Marshall entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Encina Business Credit, LLC, as Agent (the “Agent”). The Loan Agreement provides for secured revolving loans (the “Encina Revolver Loans”) in a principal amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) $23.5 million and (ii) a borrowing base equal to the sum of (a) 85% of Precision's eligible accounts receivable, plus (b) 85% of Precision's eligible inventory, subject to an eligible inventory sublimit that begins at $14.0 million and declines to $12.0 million during the term of the Loan Agreement, minus (c) customary reserves. The Encina Revolver Loans mature on July 14, 2023. On January 20, 2022, the Precision Marshall refinanced these loans with Fifth-Third Bank (see below). The refinanced credit facility, totaling $29 million, is comprised of $23.0 million in revolving credit, $3.5 million in machinery and equipment (“M&E”) lending, and $2.5 million for capital expenditure (“Capex”) lending.

Loan with Fifth Third Bank

On January 20, 2022, Precision Marshall refinanced its Encina Business Credit loans with Fifth Third Bank (see above), and the balance outstanding was repaid. The refinanced credit facility, totaling $29 million, is comprised of $23.0 million in revolving credit, $3.5 million in M&E lending, and $2.5 million for capital Capex lending. Advances under the new credit facility will bear interest at the 30-day SOFR plus 200 basis points for lending under the revolving facility, and 30-day SOFR plus 225 basis points for M&E and Capex lending (Effective December 31, 2021, SOFR replaced the USD LIBOR for most financial benchmarking). The refinancing of the Borrower’s existing credit facility reduces interest costs and improves the availability and liquidity of funds by approximately $3.0 million at the close. The facility terminates on January 20, 2027, unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms.

In connection with the acquisition of Kinetic (see Note 3), the existing revolving facility was amended to add Kinetic as a borrower. In addition, two additional term loans were executed to fund the purchase of Kinetic. Approximately $6.0 million was drawn from the revolving facility, and the term loans were opened in the amounts of $4.0 million and $1.0 million, respectively. The $4.0 million term loan, which matures on January 20, 2027, carries the same terms for M&E term lending as stated above. The $1.0 million term loan, which matures on June 28, 2025, is a “Special Advance Term Loan”, and bears interest at SOFR plus 375 basis points.

As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding balance on the revolving loan was approximately $20.6 million, and the outstanding balance on the original term note was approximately $3.3 million. As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding balance on the two term loans to fund the Kinetic acquisition were $4.0 million and $1.0 million, respectively.

Texas Capital Bank Revolver Loan

As of June 30, 2022, the balance outstanding was approximately $9.2 million.

Note 13: Earnings Per Share

Net income per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period. Basic weighted average common shares outstanding do not include shares of restricted stock that have not yet vested, although such shares are included as outstanding shares in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the additional common shares issuable in respect of restricted share awards, stock options and convertible preferred stock. Preferred stock dividends are subtracted from net earnings to determine the amount available to common stockholders.

The following table presents the computation of basic and diluted net earnings per share (in $000’s):

Note 15: Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

SEC Investigation

On February 21, 2018, the Company received a subpoena from the SEC and a letter from the SEC stating that it is conducting an investigation. The subpoena requested documents and information concerning, among other things, the restatement of the Company’s financial statements for the quarterly periods ended December 31, 2016, March 31, 2017, and June 30, 2017, the acquisition of Marquis Industries, Inc., Vintage Stock, Inc., and ApplianceSmart, Inc., and the change in auditors. On August 12, 2020, three of the Company’s corporate executive officers (together, the “Executives”) each received a “Wells Notice” from the staff of the SEC relating to the Company’s SEC investigation. On October 7, 2020, the Company received a “Wells Notice” from the staff of the SEC relating to the Company’s previously-disclosed SEC investigation. The Wells Notices relate to, among other things, the Company’s reporting of its financial performance for its fiscal year ended September 30, 2016, certain disclosures related to executive compensation, and its previous acquisition of ApplianceSmart. A Wells Notice is neither a formal charge of wrongdoing nor a final determination that the recipient has violated any law. The Wells Notices informed the Company and the Executives that the SEC Staff has made a preliminary determination to recommend that the SEC file an enforcement action against the Company and each of the Executives to allege certain violations of the federal securities laws. The Company and the Executives maintain that their actions were appropriate, and are vigorously defending against any and all allegations brought forth.

On October 1, 2018, the Company received a letter from the SEC requesting information regarding a potential violation of Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, based upon the timing of the Company’s Form 8-K filed on February 14, 2018. The Company cooperated fully with the SEC inquiry and provided a response to the SEC on October 26, 2018.

On August 2, 2021, the SEC filed a civil complaint (the “SEC Complaint”) in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada naming the Company.

The SEC Complaint alleges financial, disclosure and reporting violations against the Company under Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5. The SEC Complaint also alleges various claims against certain executive officers under Sections 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A), 13(b)(2)(B) and 13(b)(5) of the Exchange Act and Rules 12b-20, 13a-1, 13a-13, 13a-14, 13b2-1, and 13b2-2. The SEC seeks permanent injunctions and civil penalties against the Company. The foregoing is only a general summary of the SEC Complaint, which may be accessed on the SEC’s website at https://www.sec.gov/litigation/litreleases/2021/lr25155.htm.

The Company continues to assert that the SEC’s pursuit of this matter will not result in any benefit to investors and instead will only serve as a distraction from core business. On October 1, 2021, the Company and two of its executive officers as defendants (collectively, the “Defendants”), filed their motions with the court to dismiss the complaint. The SEC filed its response opposing the motions on November 1, 2021. The Defendants filed their reply to the SEC’s opposition on November 15, 2021. The motions to dismiss are now under submission and the court has not yet scheduled a hearing date. Pursuant to the automatic stay of proceedings under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act, all discovery has been stayed pending a ruling on the motions to dismiss.

ApplianceSmart Bankruptcy and Other ApplianceSmart Related Matters

On Feb 28, 2022, the court approved ApplianceSmart’s plan for reorganization (the “Plan”), discharging ApplianceSmart of certain debts according to the Plan resulting in the Company recording a gain of approximately $11.4 million, which includes a write-off or adjustment of approximately $11.5 million on the settlement of debts and other liabilities, offset by payments subject to the bankruptcy that were not included as debtor-in-possession liabilities of approximately $149,000. As of April 1, 2022, the Company has ceased operations at its one existing location, and is in the process of winding down operations, which will be immaterial to the financial statements.

Note about Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes statements that constitute “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements are often characterized by the terms “may,” “believes,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “expects,” or “anticipates,” and do not reflect historical facts.

Specific forward-looking statements contained in this portion of the Annual Report include, but are not limited to: (i) statements that are based on current projections and expectations about the markets in which we operate, (ii) statements about current projections and expectations of general economic conditions, (iii) statements about specific industry projections and expectations of economic activity, (iv) statements relating to our future operations, prospects, results, and performance, (v) statements about the Chapter 11 Case, (vi) statements that the cash on hand and additional cash generated from operations together with potential sources of cash through issuance of debt or equity will provide the Company with sufficient liquidity for the next 12 months, and (vii) statements that the outcome of pending legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on business, financial position and results of operations, cash flow or liquidity.

Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties, and other factors, which may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors and risks that could affect our results, future performance and capital requirements and cause them to materially differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements include those identified in our 2021 Form 10-K under Item 1A “Risk Factors” and Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” below, as well as other factors that we are currently unable to identify or quantify, but that may exist in the future.

In addition, the foregoing factors may generally affect our business, results of operations and financial position. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date the statements were made.

On February 28, 2022, the court approved ApplianceSmart’s plan for reorganization (the “Plan”), discharging ApplianceSmart of certain debts according to the Plan resulting in the Company recording a gain of approximately $11.4 million, which includes a write-off or adjustment of approximately $11.5 million on the settlement of debts and other liabilities, offset by payments subject to the bankruptcy that were not included as debtor-in-possession liabilities of approximately $149,000. As of April 1, 2022, we have ceased operations of its one existing location, and are in the process of winding down operations, which will be immaterial to the consolidated financial statements.

Over the last decade, Marquis has been an innovator and leader in the value-oriented polyester carpet sector, which is currently the market’s fastest-growing fiber category.

Its innovation has yielded products and technologies that differentiate its brands in the flooring marketplace. Marquis’s state-of-the-art operations enable high quality products, unique customization, and exceptionally short lead-times. Furthermore, the Company has recently invested in additional capacity to grow several attractive lines of business, including printed carpet and yarn extrusion.

Steel Manufacturing Segment

Our Steel Manufacturing segment is comprised of Precision Industries, Inc. (“Precision Marshall”).

Precision Marshall is the North American leader in providing and manufacturing, pre-finished de-carb free tool and die steel. For nearly 75 years, Precision Marshall has served steel distributors through quick and accurate service.

Kinetic manufactures more than 90 types of knives and numerous associated parts with modifications and customizations available to each. Kinetic employs approximately 100 non-union employees.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Preparation of these statements requires us to make judgments and estimates. Some accounting policies have a significant and material impact on amounts reported in these financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are based on management's experience and other information available prior to the issuance of our financial statements. Our actual realized results may differ materially from management’s initial estimates as reported. Our significant accounting policies include Inventories, Goodwill, Revenue Recognition, Fair Value Measurements, Stock Based Compensation, Income Taxes, Segment Reporting and Concentrations of Credit Risk. For a summary of our significant accounting policies and the means by which we develop estimates thereon, see Part II, Item 8 – Financial Statements - Notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements Note 2 – summary of significant accounting policies in our 2021 10-K.

Adjusted EBITDA

We evaluate the performance of our operations based on financial measures such as revenue and “Adjusted EBITDA.” Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, and other non-cash or nonrecurring charges. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of the business, including the business’ ability to fund acquisitions and other capital expenditures, and to service its debt. Additionally, this measure is used by management to evaluate operating results and perform analytical comparisons and identify strategies to improve performance. Adjusted EBITDA is also a measure that is customarily used by financial analysts to evaluate a company’s financial performance, subject to certain adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA does not represent cash flows from operations, as defined by GAAP, and should not be construed as an alternative to net income or loss and is indicative neither of our results of operations, nor of cash flows available to fund all of our cash needs. It is, however, a measurement that the Company believes is useful to investors in analyzing its operating performance. Accordingly, Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, net income, cash flow provided by operating activities, and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. As companies often define non-GAAP financial measures differently, Adjusted EBITDA, as calculated by Live Ventures Incorporated, should not be compared to any similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

The decrease is primarily attributable to decreased revenue in the Retail and Flooring Manufacturing segments of approximately $4.5 million, offset by increased revenue in Steel Manufacturing and Corporate and Other of approximately $3.7 million. The decrease in revenue in the Retail and Flooring Manufacturing segments was primarily due to reduced demand as a result of inflationary factors. The increase in revenue in the Steel Manufacturing segment was primarily due to passing on product price increases to customers. The increase in revenue in the Corporate and Other segment as compared to the prior year period was due to the consolidation of SW Financial in June 2021.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue increased by 4.3% to approximately $45.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to approximately $44.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Cost of revenue increases are due to inflationary pressures, and the consolidation of SW Financial in June 2021.

General and Administrative Expense

General and Administrative expenses decreased by 2.8% to approximately $13.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to decreases in taxes and licenses costs, legal expenses, and employee compensation costs as a result of decreased bonus expense, partially offset by costs to acquire Kinetic.

Selling and Marketing Expense

Selling and marketing expense increased by 1.3% to approximately $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. Sales and marketing expenses remained relatively unchanged from the prior year period.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net, decreased by 28.1% to approximately $674,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease is primarily due to the payoff of debt and related debt discount, favorable interest rates obtained from Precision's credit facility refinancing (see Note 9 of the unaudited consolidated financial statements), and the forgiveness of loans received under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP loan”).

Revenue

Revenue increased by approximately $10.7 million, or 5.3%, to approximately $213 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to the increased revenue in Corporate and Other of approximately $7.4 million, the Steel Manufacturing segment of approximately $4.8 million, and the Flooring Manufacturing segment of approximately $404,000, offset by a decrease in revenue in the Retail segment of approximately $1.9 million. The increase in revenue for Corporate and Other is primarily due to the consolidation of SW Financial in June 2021. The increase in revenue in the Steel Manufacturing and Flooring Manufacturing segments was primarily due to increased customer demand, as well as the passing on product cost increases to customers. The decrease in revenue in the Retail segment was primarily due to reduced demand due to inflationary pressures, supply chain issues, and overall product sales mix.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue increased by 7.5% to approximately $138.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to approximately $128.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021. The increase is primarily attributable to the increases in revenues, as well as increased product costs due to inflationary pressures.

General and Administrative Expense

General and Administrative expenses increased by 5.4% to approximately $40.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to acquisition costs to acquire Kinetic, increases in employee compensation and related costs as a result of our Retail segment opening new locations, and the consolidation of SW Financial in June 2021.

Selling and Marketing Expense

Selling and marketing expense increased by 11% to approximately $9.5 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to increased convention and trade show activity, which was largely canceled in fiscal 2021 due to COVID, as well as compensation associated with the Marquis sales force.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net, decreased by 37.2% to approximately $2.5 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease is primarily due to the payoff of debt and related debt discount, favorable interest rates obtained from Precision's credit facility refinancing (see Note 9 of the unaudited consolidated financial statements), and the forgiveness of loans received under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP loan”).

Retail Segment

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by approximately $2.5 million, or 11.5%, as compared to the prior year, primarily due to reduced demand as a result of inflationary factors. Additionally, ApplianceSmart shutdown operations during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as discussed above. Cost of revenue decreased proportionately with the decrease in revenue. Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $2.2 million, as compared to operating income of approximately $3.9 million for the prior year period.

29

Flooring Manufacturing Segment

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by approximately $2.0 million, or 6%, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to reduced customer demand as a result of inflationary pressures. Cost of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to increases in raw material costs. General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to decreases in taxes and licenses costs, as well as employee compensation costs as a result of decreased bonuses. Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $3.3 million, as compared to operating income of approximately $4.0 million for the prior year period.

Steel Manufacturing Segment

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased by approximately $2.0 million, or 15%, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to passing on of product price increases to customers. Cost of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased proportionately with the increase in revenue. Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $1.3 million, as compared to operating income of approximately $1.9 in the prior period. The decrease in operating income is primarily due to acquisition costs incurred to acquire Kinetic.

Corporate and Other Segment

Segment results for Corporate and Other includes our directory services business and our investment in SW Financial. Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased by $1.8 million primarily due to the addition of SW Financial as a VIE during June 2021. Cost of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased proportionately with revenue for the reason stated. Operating loss for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $895,000, as compared to a loss of approximately $1.6 million in the prior period. Revenues and operating income for our directory services business continue to decline due to decreasing renewals. We expect revenue and operating income from this segment to continue to decrease in the future. We are no longer accepting new customers in our directory services business. We anticipate revenues from our investment in SW Financial to trend upward in the future.

Retail Segment

Revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by approximately $1.9 million, or 2.8%, as compared to the prior year, primarily due to reduced demand as a result of inflationary factors and supply chain issues, offset by increased retail pricing and additional locations added at Vintage Stock. Further, ApplianceSmart shutdown operations during the nine months ended June 30, 2022, as described above. Retail sales at our Vintage Stock locations during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 were impacted by the lack of stimulus payments and timely tax refunds customers received during the nine months ended June 30, 2021. Cost of revenue increased due to changes in product mix, as well as other inflationary pressures. Operating income for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $10.1 million, as compared to operating income of approximately $13.4 million for the prior year period.

30

Flooring Manufacturing Segment

Revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 increased moderately as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to greater demand for various grades of flooring, as well increases in sales prices. The shift in demand in flooring grades was generally toward higher priced product. Sales price increases were primarily due to higher product costs relating to inflationary pressures that were passed on to customers. Cost of revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 increased primarily due to increases in raw material costs, as compared to the prior year period. General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $1.9 million primarily due to decreases in taxes and licenses costs, as well as employee compensation costs as a result of decreased bonuses. Sales and marketing expenses increased by approximately $1.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to increased convention and trade show activity, as well as increased compensation associated with the Marquis sales force. Operating income for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $11.8 million, as compared to operating income of approximately $14.2 million for the prior year period.

Steel Manufacturing Segment

Revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 increased by approximately $4.8 million, or 13.2%, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to increased sales prices resulting from rising costs. Cost of revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 increased by approximately $1.5 million, or 5.4%, as compared to the prior year period, as a percentage of sales due to improved manufacturing efficiencies and increased revenue due to price increases. Operating income for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $5.6 million, as compared to operating income of approximately $3.8 million in the prior period. The increase in operating income is primarily due to an increase in gross profit.

Corporate and Other Segment

Results for Corporate and Other includes our directory services business and our investment in SW Financial. Revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 increased by approximately $7.4 million primarily due to the addition of SW Financial as a VIE during June 2021. Cost of revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 increased proportionately with revenue due to inflationary pressures and the consolidation of SW Financial in June 2021. Operating loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $2.8 million, as compared to a loss of approximately $4.7 million in the prior period. Revenues and operating income for our directory services business continue to decline due to decreasing renewals.

31

Adjusted EBITDA decreased by approximately $930,000, or 9.5%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the prior year period. The decrease is primarily due to decreases in revenue and gross profit, as discussed above.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased by approximately $1.8 million, or 5.5%, for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the prior year period. The decrease is primarily due to increases in cost of revenue and increases in SG&A expenses, as discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2022, we had total cash on hand of approximately $3.6 million and approximately $32.0 million of available borrowing under our revolving credit facilities. As we continue to pursue acquisitions and other strategic transactions to expand and grow our business, we regularly monitor capital market conditions and may raise additional funds through borrowings or public or private sales of debt or equity securities. The amount, nature, and timing of any borrowings or sales of debt or equity securities will depend on our operating performance and other circumstances; our then-current commitments and obligations; the amount, nature and timing of our capital requirements; any limitations imposed by our current credit arrangements; and, overall market conditions.

Based on our current operating plans, we believe that available cash balances, cash generated from our operating activities and funds available under our asset-based revolver lines of credit will provide sufficient liquidity to do the following: fund our operations; pay our scheduled loan payments; ability to repurchase shares under our share buyback program; and, pay dividends on our shares of Series E Preferred Stock as declared by the Board of Directors, for at least the next 12 months.

Working Capital

We had working capital of approximately $72.0 million as of June 30, 2022, as compared to working capital of approximately $33.8 million as of September 30, 2021; an increase of approximately $38.1 million. The increase is primarily due to the net assets received from the acquisition of Kinetic, and an increase in inventories, and decreases in debtor-in-possession liabilities, accrued liabilities, and the current portion of notes payable to related parties, partially offset by increases in accounts payable and the current portion of long-term debt.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

The Company’s cash, as of June 30, 2022, was approximately $3.6 million compared to approximately $4.7 million as of September 30, 2021, a decrease of approximately $1.1 million. Net cash provided by operations was approximately $10.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to net cash provided by operations of approximately $32.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to purchases of inventory, and the timing of payments on accrued liabilities.

Our primary sources of cash inflows are from customer receipts from sales on account, factored accounts receivable proceeds, receipts for securities sales commissions, and net remittances from directory services customers processed in the form of ACH billings. Our most significant cash outflows include payments for raw materials and general operating expenses, including payroll costs and general and administrative expenses that typically occur within close proximity of expense recognition.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Our cash flows used in investing activities of approximately $32.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 consisted primarily of the Kinetic acquisition, as well as purchases of property and equipment. Our cash flows used in investing activities of approximately $14.5 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 consisted of purchases of property and equipment and our purchase of SW Financial.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Our cash flows provided by financing activities of approximately $20.8 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 consisted of proceeds from notes payable of approximately $20.3 million, and approximately $18.2 million in net proceeds under revolver loans, partially offset by payments of notes payable and financing leases of approximately $15.2 million, and purchases of treasury stock in the amount of approximately $2.5 million. Proceeds from borrowings under revolver loans, and the issuance of notes payable was primarily associated with the acquisition of Kinetic.

32

Our cash flows used in financing activities of approximately $16.1 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2021 consisted of payments on notes payable and related notes payable of approximately $15.1 million, net payments under revolver loans of approximately $3.2 million, and purchases of treasury stock in the amount of approximately $409,000, partially offset by the issuance of notes payable of approximately $2.3 million associated with the acquisition of a facility by Marquis.

Currently, we are not issuing common shares for liquidity purposes. We prefer to use asset-based lending arrangements and mezzanine financing together with Company provided capital to finance acquisitions and have done so historically. Occasionally, as our Company history has demonstrated, we will issue stock and derivative instruments linked to stock for services or debt settlement.

Future Sources of Cash; New Products and Services

We may require additional debt financing or capital to finance new acquisitions, refinance existing indebtedness or other strategic investments in our business. Other sources of financing may include stock issuances and additional loans; or other forms of financing. Any financing obtained by us may further dilute or otherwise impair the ownership interest of our existing stockholders.

33

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As of June 30, 2022, we did not participate in any market risk-sensitive commodity instruments for which fair value disclosure would be required. We believe we are not subject in any material way to other forms of market risk, such as foreign currency exchange risk or foreign customer purchases or commodity price risk. We believe we are not subject in any material way to other forms of market risk, such as foreign currency exchange risk or foreign customer purchases or commodity price risk.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure control and Procedures. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision, and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer (our CEO) and principal financial officer (our CFO), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2022, the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting further described below.

Despite the identified material weaknesses, management concluded that the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods disclosed in conformity with GAAP. Frazier & Deeter, LLC, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an unqualified opinion on our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended September 30, 2021. They were not engaged to perform, and did not perform, an audit of internal control over financial reporting. These material weaknesses had no impact on our consolidated financial statements in prior years.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)). Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, do not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures or the Company’s internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, regardless of how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be met. These inherent limitations include the following: judgements in decision-making can be faulty, and control and process breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes, controls can be circumvented by individuals, acting alone or in collusion with each other, or by management override. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2022. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) of 2013 regarding Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment using those criteria, our management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting was ineffective as of June 30, 2022. Management noted the following deficiencies that management believes to be material weaknesses:

•The Company does not have sufficient written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal control over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

•Management has not established appropriate and rigorous procedures for evaluating internal control over financial reporting for all of its subsidiaries; and

•Management does not have sufficient resources to maintain adequate segregation of duties and maintain its internal control environment.

34

In response to the above identified weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, we have completed an engagement with a third party that assisted management in improving the documentation of our internal control policies and procedures and developed an internal testing plan to document our evaluation of effectiveness of our internal controls. Based on the work completed as of June 30, 2022, we expect to conclude on these remediation initiatives during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022. We continue to evaluate testing of our internal control policies and procedures, including assessing internal and external resources that may be available to complete these tasks, but do not know when these tasks will be completed.

A material weakness (within the meaning of PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 2201) is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A “significant deficiency” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the company’s financial reporting.

Other than as noted above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Please refer to “Item 3. Legal Proceedings” in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K for information regarding material pending legal proceedings. Except as set forth therein and below, there have been no new material legal proceedings and no material developments in the legal proceedings previously disclosed.

SEC Matter

On February 21, 2018, the Company received a subpoena from the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and a letter from the SEC stating that it is conducting an investigation. The subpoena requested documents and information concerning, among other things, the restatement of the Company’s financial statements for the quarterly periods ended December 31, 2016, March 31, 2017, and June 30, 2017, the acquisition of Marquis Industries, Inc., Vintage Stock, Inc., and ApplianceSmart, Inc., and the change in auditors. On August 12, 2020, three of the Company’s corporate executive officers (together, the “Executives”) each received a “Wells Notice” from the Staff of the SEC relating to the Company’s SEC investigation. On October 7, 2020, the Company received a “Wells Notice” from the Staff of the SEC relating to the Company’s previously-disclosed SEC investigation. The Wells Notices related to, among other things, the Company’s reporting of its financial performance for its fiscal year ended September 30, 2016, certain disclosures related to executive compensation, and its previous acquisition of ApplianceSmart.

On August 2, 2021, the SEC filed a civil complaint (the “SEC Complaint”) in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada naming the Company and two of its executive officers as defendants (collectively, the “Defendants”). The SEC Complaint alleges various financial, disclosure, and reporting violations related to income and earnings per share, purported undisclosed stock promotion and trading, and undisclosed executive compensation from 2016 through 2018. The violations are brought under Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and Rule 10b-5; Sections 13(a), 13(b)(2)(B) and 13(b)(5) of the Exchange Act and Rules 12b-20, 13a-1, 13a-14, 13a-13, 13b2-1, 13b2-2; Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14a-3; and Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933. The SEC seeks permanent injunctions against the Defendants, officer-and-director bars, disgorgement of profits, and civil penalties. The foregoing is only a general summary of the SEC Complaint, which may be accessed on the SEC’s website at https://www.sec.gov/litigation/litreleases/2021/lr25155.htm.

The Company continues to assert that the SEC’s pursuit of this matter will not result in any benefit to investors and instead will only serve as a distraction from its core business activities. On October 1, 2021, the Defendants, filed their motions with the court to dismiss the complaint. The SEC filed its response opposing the motions on November 1, 2021. The Defendants filed their reply to the SEC’s opposition on November 15, 2021. The motions to dismiss are now under submission and the court has not yet scheduled a hearing date. Pursuant to the automatic stay of proceedings under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act, all discovery has been stayed pending a ruling on the motions to dismiss.

The Defendants strongly dispute and deny the allegations and intend to continue to defend themselves vigorously against the claims.

ApplianceSmart Bankruptcy and Other ApplianceSmart Litigation Matters

As stated above, on October 13, 2021, a hearing was held to consider approval of the Disclosure Statement filed by ApplianceSmart in conjunction with its bankruptcy proceedings. On December 14, 2021, a hearing was held to confirm ApplianceSmart’s plan for reorganization (the “Plan”). On Feb 28, 2022, the court approved ApplianceSmart’s plan for reorganization (the “Plan”), discharging ApplianceSmart of certain debts according to the Plan resulting in the Company recording a gain of approximately $11.4 million, which includes a write-off or adjustment of approximately $11.5 million on the settlement of debts and other liabilities, offset by payments subject to the bankruptcy that were not included as debtor-in-possession liabilities of approximately $149,000.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

None.

ITEM 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of funds

On February 20, 2018, the Company announced a $10 million common stock repurchase program. During the nine months ended June 30, 2022, the Company repurchased 79,828 shares of common stock under this program at a cost of approximately $2.5 million. As of June 30, 2022, the Company has approximately $4.2 million available for repurchases under this program.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Background and Basis of Presentation

Note 1: Background and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Live Ventures Incorporated, a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Live Ventures” or the “Company”). Live Ventures is a diversified holding company with a strategic focus on value-oriented acquisitions of domestic middle-market companies. The Company has four operating segments: Retail, Flooring Manufacturing, Steel Manufacturing, and Corporate and Other. The Retail segment includes (i) Vintage Stock, Inc. (“Vintage Stock”), which is engaged in the retail sale of new and used movies, music, collectibles, comics, books, games, game systems and components and (ii) ApplianceSmart, Inc. (“ApplianceSmart”), which, until April 1, 2022 when the Company ceased operations, was engaged in the sale of new major appliances through a retail store (see Note 15). The Flooring Manufacturing segment included Marquis Industries, Inc. (“Marquis”), which is engaged in the manufacture and sale of carpet and the sale of vinyl and wood floorcoverings. The Steel Manufacturing Segment includes Precision Industries, Inc. (“Precision Marshall”), which is engaged in the manufacture and sale of alloy and steel plates, ground flat stock and drill rods.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for audited financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, this interim information includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The results of operations for three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2022. The financial information included in these statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto as of September 30, 2021 and for the fiscal year then ended included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 28, 2021 (the “2021 10-K”).

Coronavirus

The COVID-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic has resulted in changes in global supply of certain products. The effects of the pandemic have created significant uncertainties and continue to have an unprecedented impact on the U.S. economy as federal, state, and local governments react to it. These significant uncertainties and unprecedented impacts include, but are not limited to, an adverse effect on the economy; the Company’s supply chain partners; its employees and customers; customer sentiment in general; and traffic within shopping centers, and, where applicable, malls, containing its stores. As the pandemic continues, consumer fear about becoming ill, as well as recommendations or mandates from federal, state, and local authorities to avoid large gatherings of people or self-quarantine, are continuing; this has already affected, and may continue to affect, traffic to retail stores. The continued effects of the pandemic could materially adversely affect the near-term and long-term revenues, earnings, liquidity, and cash flows, and may require a variety of responsive actions, including but not limited to, employee furloughs, reduced store hours, store closings, expense reductions or discounting of pricing of products—all in an effort to mitigate such impacts. The extent of the uncertainties and impacts of the pandemic on the Company’s business and financial results will depend largely on future developments, including the duration of the pandemic within the U.S., the impact on capital and financial markets and the related impact on consumer confidence and spending—all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. This situation with the pandemic is continually changing and additional effects of which the Company is not aware may occur.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its majority owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control, and a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The Company records a non-controlling interest within stockholders’ equity for the portion of the entity’s equity attributed to the consolidated entities that are not wholly owned. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These reclassifications have no material effect on the reported financial results.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant estimates made in connection with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the estimated reserve for doubtful accounts, the estimated reserve for excess and obsolete inventory, estimated warranty reserve, estimated fair value for stock-based compensation, fair values in connection with the analysis of goodwill, other intangibles and long-lived assets for impairment, valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, and estimated useful lives for intangible assets and property and equipment.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduces a new approach to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments based on expected losses instead of incurred losses. It also modified the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and provided a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and the interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this new accounting standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures; however, adoption of this ASU is anticipated to have no material impact on the Company's financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12 - Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”). ASU 2019-12 is part of the FASB’s overall simplification initiative and seeks to simplify the accounting for income taxes by updating certain guidance and removing certain exceptions. The updated guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company implemented this update as of December 31, 2021. The adoption of this ASU had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04 - Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), codified as ASC 848 (“ASC 848”). The purpose of ASC 848 is to provide optional guidance to ease the potential effects on financial reporting of the market-wide migration away from Interbank Offered Rates to alternative reference rates. ASC 848 applies only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference a reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. Effective December 31, 2021, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) replaced the USD London Interbank-Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) for most financial benchmarking. The guidance may be applied upon issuance of ASC 848 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this new accounting standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, however, adoption of this ASU is anticipated to have no material impact on the Company's financial statements.

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options. This update provides guidance for a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that is not within the scope of another Topic. This update is effective for the Company’s fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this new accounting standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, however, adoption of this ASU is anticipated to have no material impact on the Company's financial statements.

Acquisitions

Note 3: Acquisitions

Acquisition of Kinetic

On June 28, 2022, Precision Marshall (“Precision”) acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of The Kinetic Co., Inc. (“Kinetic”), a Wisconsin corporation, which was accomplished through a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”). In connection with the Purchase Agreement, Precision also entered into a Real Estate Purchase Agreement with Plan B-6, LLC, an affiliate of Kinetic, pursuant to which Precision received all of Kinetic's right, title, and interest in and to the land and improvements (collectively, the “Real Estate”) that Kinetic uses in its operations. The combined purchase price, which is subject to certain post-closing adjustments, for the Kinetic shares and Real Estate was approximately $24.6 million, which was funded with borrowings under the company’s credit facility, proceeds from sale-leaseback of the Real Estate, a subordinated promissory note to in the amount of $3.0 million to the Seller of Kinetic, contingent earn-out liability, valued at $997,000, and cash on-hand.

As of the date of acquisition, Precision entered into a sale and leaseback agreement with a third-party, independent of the Kinetic sellers, for the Real Estate. The sale price of the Real Estate was approximately $8.9 million, subject to closing fees of approximately $547,000.

The provisions of the lease agreement include a 20-year lease term with two five-year renewal options. The base rent under the lease agreement is $50,000 per month for the first year of the term and a 2% per annum escalator. The Lease Agreement is a “net lease,” such that the lessees are also obligated to pay all taxes, insurance, assessments, and other costs, expenses, and obligations of ownership of the Real Property incurred by Moss. Due to the highly specialized nature of the leased assets, the Company currently believes that it is more likely than not that each of the two five-year options will be exercised. The proceeds, net of closing fees, from the sale-leaseback were used to assist in funding the acquisition of Kinetic.

Under the preliminary purchase price allocation, the Company recognized goodwill of approximately $2.2 million, which is calculated as the excess of both the consideration exchanged and liabilities assumed as compared to the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired. The values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on their estimates of fair value available as of June 28, 2022, as calculated by an independent third-party firm. Goodwill arising from the acquisition is expected to be fully deductible for tax purposes. The table below outlines the purchase price allocation of the purchase for Kinetic to the acquired identifiable assets, liabilities assumed and goodwill (in $000’s):

Total purchase price	$	24,642
Accounts payable		2,592
Accrued liabilities		1,622

Leases [Abstract]

Leases

Note 4: Leases

The Company leases retail stores, warehouse facilities, and office space. These assets and properties are generally leased under noncancelable agreements that expire at various dates through 2042 with various renewal options for additional periods. The agreements, which have been classified as operating leases, generally provide for minimum—and in some cases percentage—rent, and require us to pay all insurance, taxes, and other maintenance costs. As a result, the Company recognizes assets and liabilities for all leases with lease terms greater than 12 months. The amounts that are recognized reflect the present value of remaining lease payments for all leases. The discount rate used is an estimate of the Company’s blended incremental borrowing rate, based on information available associated with each subsidiary’s debt outstanding at lease commencement. In considering the lease asset value, the Company considers fixed and variable payment terms, prepayments, and options to extend, terminate, or purchase. Renewal, termination, or purchase options only affect the lease term used for determining lease asset value if the option is reasonably certain to be exercised.

As discussed in Note 3 above, on June 28, 2022, Precision acquired all of the capital stock of Kinetic and certain Real Estate assets used in its operations. As of the date of execution of the Real Estate purchase, Precision sold the Real Estate, in exchange for which Precision entered into a 20-year lease, with two options to renew for an additional five years each. This transaction is being treated as a sales and leaseback arrangement for accounting purposes, as described in ASC 842 “Leases”.

As of June 30, 2022, the weighted average remaining lease term is 16.9 years and our weighted average discount rate is 5.82%. Total cash payments for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were approximately $7.2 million and $2.1 million, respectively. Additionally, we obtained right-of-use assets in exchange for lease liabilities of approximately $7.6 million and $8.6 million upon commencement of finance and operating leases, respectively, during the nine months ended June 30, 2022.

The following table details our right of use assets and lease liabilities as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021 (in $000’s):

Bank of America Revolver Loan

On January 31, 2020, Marquis entered into an amended $25.0 million revolving credit agreement (“BofA Revolver”) with Bank of America Corporation (“BofA”). The BofA Revolver is a five-year, asset-based facility that is secured by substantially all of Marquis’ assets. Availability under the BofA Revolver is subject to a monthly borrowing base calculation. Marquis’ ability to borrow under the BofA Revolver is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including meeting all loan covenants under the credit agreement with BofA. As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding balance was approximately $7.3 million.

Loans with Encina Business Credit, LLC

On July 14, 2020, Precision Marshall entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Encina Business Credit, LLC, as Agent (the “Agent”). The Loan Agreement provides for secured revolving loans (the “Encina Revolver Loans”) in a principal amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) $23.5 million and (ii) a borrowing base equal to the sum of (a) 85% of Precision's eligible accounts receivable, plus (b) 85% of Precision's eligible inventory, subject to an eligible inventory sublimit that begins at $14.0 million and declines to $12.0 million during the term of the Loan Agreement, minus (c) customary reserves. The Encina Revolver Loans mature on July 14, 2023. On January 20, 2022, the Precision Marshall refinanced these loans with Fifth-Third Bank (see below). The refinanced credit facility, totaling $29 million, is comprised of $23.0 million in revolving credit, $3.5 million in machinery and equipment (“M&E”) lending, and $2.5 million for capital expenditure (“Capex”) lending.

Loan with Fifth Third Bank

On January 20, 2022, Precision Marshall refinanced its Encina Business Credit loans with Fifth Third Bank (see above), and the balance outstanding was repaid. The refinanced credit facility, totaling $29 million, is comprised of $23.0 million in revolving credit, $3.5 million in M&E lending, and $2.5 million for capital Capex lending. Advances under the new credit facility will bear interest at the 30-day SOFR plus 200 basis points for lending under the revolving facility, and 30-day SOFR plus 225 basis points for M&E and Capex lending (Effective December 31, 2021, SOFR replaced the USD LIBOR for most financial benchmarking). The refinancing of the Borrower’s existing credit facility reduces interest costs and improves the availability and liquidity of funds by approximately $3.0 million at the close. The facility terminates on January 20, 2027, unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms.

In connection with the acquisition of Kinetic (see Note 3), the existing revolving facility was amended to add Kinetic as a borrower. In addition, two additional term loans were executed to fund the purchase of Kinetic. Approximately $6.0 million was drawn from the revolving facility, and the term loans were opened in the amounts of $4.0 million and $1.0 million, respectively. The $4.0 million term loan, which matures on January 20, 2027, carries the same terms for M&E term lending as stated above. The $1.0 million term loan, which matures on June 28, 2025, is a “Special Advance Term Loan”, and bears interest at SOFR plus 375 basis points.

As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding balance on the revolving loan was approximately $20.6 million, and the outstanding balance on the original term note was approximately $3.3 million. As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding balance on the two term loans to fund the Kinetic acquisition were $4.0 million and $1.0 million, respectively.

Additionally, Marquis entered into a $2.0 million note in favor of the seller of the facility for the balance of the purchase price, which note is secured by the facility. The note bears interest at 6%, and matures in January 2030. Principal and interest payments are due monthly, and the note is fully amortized at maturity. As of June 30, 2022, the remaining principal balance was approximately $1.7 million.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

Note 13: Earnings Per Share

Net income per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the applicable period. Basic weighted average common shares outstanding do not include shares of restricted stock that have not yet vested, although such shares are included as outstanding shares in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the additional common shares issuable in respect of restricted share awards, stock options and convertible preferred stock. Preferred stock dividends are subtracted from net earnings to determine the amount available to common stockholders.

The following table presents the computation of basic and diluted net earnings per share (in $000’s):

Litigation

SEC Investigation

On February 21, 2018, the Company received a subpoena from the SEC and a letter from the SEC stating that it is conducting an investigation. The subpoena requested documents and information concerning, among other things, the restatement of the Company’s financial statements for the quarterly periods ended December 31, 2016, March 31, 2017, and June 30, 2017, the acquisition of Marquis Industries, Inc., Vintage Stock, Inc., and ApplianceSmart, Inc., and the change in auditors. On August 12, 2020, three of the Company’s corporate executive officers (together, the “Executives”) each received a “Wells Notice” from the staff of the SEC relating to the Company’s SEC investigation. On October 7, 2020, the Company received a “Wells Notice” from the staff of the SEC relating to the Company’s previously-disclosed SEC investigation. The Wells Notices relate to, among other things, the Company’s reporting of its financial performance for its fiscal year ended September 30, 2016, certain disclosures related to executive compensation, and its previous acquisition of ApplianceSmart. A Wells Notice is neither a formal charge of wrongdoing nor a final determination that the recipient has violated any law. The Wells Notices informed the Company and the Executives that the SEC Staff has made a preliminary determination to recommend that the SEC file an enforcement action against the Company and each of the Executives to allege certain violations of the federal securities laws. The Company and the Executives maintain that their actions were appropriate, and are vigorously defending against any and all allegations brought forth.

On October 1, 2018, the Company received a letter from the SEC requesting information regarding a potential violation of Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, based upon the timing of the Company’s Form 8-K filed on February 14, 2018. The Company cooperated fully with the SEC inquiry and provided a response to the SEC on October 26, 2018.

On August 2, 2021, the SEC filed a civil complaint (the “SEC Complaint”) in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada naming the Company.

The SEC Complaint alleges financial, disclosure and reporting violations against the Company under Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5. The SEC Complaint also alleges various claims against certain executive officers under Sections 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A), 13(b)(2)(B) and 13(b)(5) of the Exchange Act and Rules 12b-20, 13a-1, 13a-13, 13a-14, 13b2-1, and 13b2-2. The SEC seeks permanent injunctions and civil penalties against the Company. The foregoing is only a general summary of the SEC Complaint, which may be accessed on the SEC’s website at https://www.sec.gov/litigation/litreleases/2021/lr25155.htm.

The Company continues to assert that the SEC’s pursuit of this matter will not result in any benefit to investors and instead will only serve as a distraction from core business. On October 1, 2021, the Company and two of its executive officers as defendants (collectively, the “Defendants”), filed their motions with the court to dismiss the complaint. The SEC filed its response opposing the motions on November 1, 2021. The Defendants filed their reply to the SEC’s opposition on November 15, 2021. The motions to dismiss are now under submission and the court has not yet scheduled a hearing date. Pursuant to the automatic stay of proceedings under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act, all discovery has been stayed pending a ruling on the motions to dismiss.

ApplianceSmart Bankruptcy and Other ApplianceSmart Related Matters

On Feb 28, 2022, the court approved ApplianceSmart’s plan for reorganization (the “Plan”), discharging ApplianceSmart of certain debts according to the Plan resulting in the Company recording a gain of approximately $11.4 million, which includes a write-off or adjustment of approximately $11.5 million on the settlement of debts and other liabilities, offset by payments subject to the bankruptcy that were not included as debtor-in-possession liabilities of approximately $149,000. As of April 1, 2022, the Company has ceased operations at its one existing location, and is in the process of winding down operations, which will be immaterial to the financial statements.

Generally

The Company is involved in various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal course of business. The ultimate results of claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty. The Company currently believes that the ultimate outcome of such lawsuits and proceedings will not, individually, or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. As applicable, liabilities pertaining to these matters, that are probable and estimable, have been accrued.

Warranties

During 2019, the Company became the principal for certain extended warranties; as a result, warranty reserves are included in accrued liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet. The following table summarizes the warranty reserve activity for the nine months ended June 30, 2022:

Beginning balance, September 30, 2021	$	105

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

9 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2022

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its majority owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control, and a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The Company records a non-controlling interest within stockholders’ equity for the portion of the entity’s equity attributed to the consolidated entities that are not wholly owned. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These reclassifications have no material effect on the reported financial results.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant estimates made in connection with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the estimated reserve for doubtful accounts, the estimated reserve for excess and obsolete inventory, estimated warranty reserve, estimated fair value for stock-based compensation, fair values in connection with the analysis of goodwill, other intangibles and long-lived assets for impairment, valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, and estimated useful lives for intangible assets and property and equipment.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduces a new approach to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments based on expected losses instead of incurred losses. It also modified the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and provided a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and the interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this new accounting standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures; however, adoption of this ASU is anticipated to have no material impact on the Company's financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12 - Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”). ASU 2019-12 is part of the FASB’s overall simplification initiative and seeks to simplify the accounting for income taxes by updating certain guidance and removing certain exceptions. The updated guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company implemented this update as of December 31, 2021. The adoption of this ASU had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04 - Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), codified as ASC 848 (“ASC 848”). The purpose of ASC 848 is to provide optional guidance to ease the potential effects on financial reporting of the market-wide migration away from Interbank Offered Rates to alternative reference rates. ASC 848 applies only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference a reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. Effective December 31, 2021, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) replaced the USD London Interbank-Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) for most financial benchmarking. The guidance may be applied upon issuance of ASC 848 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this new accounting standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, however, adoption of this ASU is anticipated to have no material impact on the Company's financial statements.

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options. This update provides guidance for a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that is not within the scope of another Topic. This update is effective for the Company’s fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this new accounting standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, however, adoption of this ASU is anticipated to have no material impact on the Company's financial statements.
