Mama’s Creations, Inc.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

April 30, 2024

Note 1 - Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Operations

Mama's Creations, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), (formerly known as Mama Mancini's Holdings, Inc. and Mascot Properties, Inc.) was organized on July 22, 2009 as a Nevada corporation. The Company has a fiscal year-end of January 31.

Our subsidiary MamaMancini’s Inc. (“MamaMancinis”) is a marketer, manufacturer and distributor of beef and turkey meatballs with sauce, grilled, roasted and breaded chicken, sausage and peppers, and other similar meats and sauces. In addition, the Company continues to diversify its product line by introducing new products such as ready to serve meals, single-size pasta bowls, bulk deli, and packaged refrigerated protein products. MamaMancini's products were submitted to the United States Department of Agriculture (the “USDA”) and approved as all natural. The USDA defines all natural as a product that contains no artificial ingredients, coloring ingredients or chemical preservatives and is minimally processed.

Our Subsidiary T&L Acquisition Corp. is a premier gourmet food manufacturer based in New York. T&L Acquisition Corp. DBA T&L Creative Salads (“T&L”) and Olive Branch (“OB”) offer a full line of foods for retail food chains and club stores, delis, bagel stores, caterers and provision distributors. T&L uses high-quality meats, seafood and vegetables, prepared to meet the standards set forth by the USDA and the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). Olive Branch concentrates on selling olives, olive mixes, and savory products to a limited number of large retail customers, primarily in pre-packaged containers.

On June 28, 2022, the Company acquired a 24% minority interest in Chef Inspirational Foods, LLC (“CIF”), a leading developer, innovator, marketer and sales company selling prepared foods, for an investment of $1.2 million. The investment consisted of $500 thousand in cash and $700 thousand in the Company’s common stock. The acquisition of the interest in CIF was accounted for under the equity method of accounting for investments until the Company acquired the remaining interest in CIF. On June 28, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of the remaining 76% of CIF, in accordance with the terms of the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement dated June 28, 2023 by and among the Company, Siegel Suffolk Family, LLC, and R&I Loeb Family, LLC (the “Sellers”) for approximately $3.7 million, including approximately $1 million in cash at closing and a $2.7 million promissory note (the "CIF Acquisition"). The promissory note requires a principal payment of $1.2 million in cash on the first anniversary of the closing date, and a payment of $1.5 million in common stock of the Company on the second anniversary of the closing date.

The following presents the unaudited results of operations for the period February 1, 2023 through April 30, 2023 of CIF (in thousands):

	For the Period February 1, 2023 through April 30, 2023
Revenues	$	8,289
Net income	$	607

Name Change

On July 31, 2023, the Company filed an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to change the Company’s name from “MamaMancini’s Holdings, Inc.” to “Mama’s Creations, Inc.” (the “Name Change”). The Name Change, which was approved by the Company’s stockholders at its annual meeting on July 31, 2023, did not alter the voting powers or relative rights of the Company from its origins as a home style, old-world Italian food company to a "one stop shop" including all-natural specialty prepared refrigerated foods for sale in retailers around the country. On July 31, 2023, the Company also amended and restated its Amended and Restated Bylaws, solely to reflect the name change (as amended, the “Second Amended and Restated Bylaws”).

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and its subsidiaries, which are unaudited, include all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of April 30, 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods presented. The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements herein should be read together with the historical Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company for the years ended January 31, 2024 and 2023 included in our 2024 Form 10-K. Operating results for the three months ended April 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending January 31, 2025.

Principles of Consolidation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions impact, among others, allowance for credit losses, the fair value of stock-based compensation, inventory reserves, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, and estimates for unrealized returns, discounts, and other allowances that are netted against revenue.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from our estimates.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company operates in an industry that is subject to intense competition and changes in consumer demand. The Company’s operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties, including financial and operational risks, including the potential risk of business failure.

The Company has experienced, and in the future expects to continue to experience, variability in sales and earnings. The factors expected to contribute to this variability include, among others, (i) the cyclical nature of the grocery industry, (ii) general economic conditions in the various local markets in which the Company competes, including a potential general downturn in the economy, and (iii) the volatility of prices pertaining to food and beverages in connection with the Company’s distribution of the product. These factors, among others, make it difficult to project the Company’s operating results on a consistent basis.

Segment Reporting

For the three months ended April 30, 2024 and April 30, 2023, the Company was managed as a single operating segment. The Chief Executive Officer, who is the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), reviews financial information on an aggregate basis for purposes of allocating resources and assessing financial performance, as well as for making strategic operational decisions and managing the organization. As such the Company has one reportable segment. Additionally, all of the Company's assets are maintained in the United States.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

The Company minimizes its credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institution. The balance at times may exceed federally insured limits.

F-9

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. The Company generally does not require collateral to support customer receivables. Estimated product returns are immaterial. Management assesses the collectability of outstanding customer invoices and maintains an allowance resulting from the expected non-collection of customer receivables. In estimating this reserve, management considers factors such as historical collection experience, customer creditworthiness, specific customer risk, and current and expected general economic conditions. Customer balances are written off after all collection efforts are exhausted. The reserve for uncollectible accounts was approximately $93 thousand as of April 30, 2024 and January 31, 2024. During the three months ended April 30, 2024 and April 30, 2023 the Company did not write off any accounts deemed uncollectible.

Inventories

The Company values its inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value (“NRV”). NRV is defined as estimated selling prices less costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The cost of inventory is determined on the first-in, first-out basis. The cost of finished goods inventories includes ingredients, direct labor, freight-in for ingredients, and indirect production and overhead costs. The Company monitors its inventory to identify excess or obsolete items on hand. The Company reviews inventory quantities on-hand and records a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on selling prices and indications from customers based upon current price negotiations and purchase orders. In addition, and as necessary, specific reserves for future known or anticipated events may be established. As of April 30, 2024 and January 31, 2024, the reserve for obsolete inventory was approximately $95 thousand.

Inventories by major category are as follows (in thousands):

	April 30, 2024		January 31, 2024
Raw materials and packaging	$	1,293	$	1,159
Work in process	217		237
Finished goods	1,507		1,914
Total	$	3,017	$	3,310

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are recorded at cost net of depreciation. Depreciation expense is computed using straight-line methods over the estimated useful lives.

Asset lives for financial statement reporting of depreciation expense are:

Machinery and equipment	2-7 years
Furniture and fixtures	3-5 years
Leasehold improvements	*

(*)Amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of remaining lease term at the time the asset was placed in service or their estimated useful lives.

Upon sale or retirement of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair values of the underlying net assets of an acquired business. The Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter of its fiscal year, or immediately if conditions indicate that an impairment could exist. The Company evaluates qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than its carrying value and whether it is necessary to perform goodwill impairment testing.

As of April 30, 2024 and January 31, 2024, there were no impairment losses recognized for goodwill.

F-10

Other Intangible Assets

Other intangible assets consist of trademarks, trade names and customer relationships. Intangible asset lives for financial statement reporting of amortization are:

Tradenames and trademarks	3 years
Customer relationships	4 – 5 years

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation. The carrying amount of the Company’s short-term financial instruments approximates fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments.

Research and Development

Research and development is expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2024 and 2023 were approximately $104 thousand and $71 thousand, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with FASB Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).

The Company’s sales are primarily generated from the sale of finished products to customers. Revenue is recognized when the performance obligation is satisfied, and the promised goods have been transferred. Control transfers when the product is shipped or delivered based upon applicable shipping terms. For each contract, the Company considers the transfer of product to be the performance obligation. Although some payment terms may be extended, generally the Company’s payment terms are approximately 15- 30 days. Accordingly, there are no significant financing components to consider when determining the transaction price. The Company elected to treat shipping and handling activities as fulfillment activities, and the related costs are recorded as selling expenses in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company promotes its products with trade incentives and promotions. These programs include discounts, slotting fees, coupons, rebates, in-store display incentives and volume-based incentives. The trade incentives and promotions are recorded as a reduction to the transaction price based on amounts estimated as being due to customers at the end of the period. The Company derives these estimates based on historical experience. The Company does not receive a distinct service in relation to the trade incentives and promotions. The Company’s contracts are all short term in nature; therefore, there are no unsatisfied performance obligations requiring disclosure as of April 30, 2024.

Expenses such as slotting fees, sales discounts, and allowances are accounted for as a direct reduction of revenues as follows (in thousands):

	For the Three Months Ended
	April 30, 2024		April 30, 2023
Gross Sales	$	30,398	$	23,600
Less: Slotting Fees, Discounts & Allowances	560		479
Net Sales	$	29,838	$	23,121

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales represents costs directly related to the production and manufacturing of the Company’s products.

Advertising

Costs incurred for advertising for the Company are charged to selling, general and administrative expenses as incurred. Advertising expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2024 and 2023 were approximately $413 thousand and $209 thousand respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company provides compensation benefits in the form of performance stock awards, restricted stock units, stock options, and warrants. The cost of the stock-based compensation is recorded at fair value on the date of grant and expensed in the condensed consolidated statement of operations over the requisite service period.

The Company has granted performance stock awards ("PSUs") to certain executive officers. Each performance stock award entitles the participant to earn shares of common stock upon the attainment of certain market conditions and certain performance goals over the applicable performance period. The recognition of the compensation expense for the performance stock awards is based upon the probable outcome of the market condition and performance conditions based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. To determine the value of PSUs with market conditions for stock-based compensation purposes, the Company used a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model. For each path, the PSUs payoff is calculated based on the contractual terms, whereas the fair value of the PSUs is calculated as the average present value of all modeled payoffs. The determination of the grant date fair value of PSUs issued is affected by a number of variables and subjective assumptions, including (i) the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the grant date of $1.17 and $1.40, (ii) the expected common stock price volatility over the expected life of the award of 85.7% and 87.0%, (iii) the term of the awards of 5 years and 5 years, (iv) the risk-free interest rate of 3.7% and 3.4%, and (v) the expected dividend yield of 0% and 0% . Forfeitures are recognized when they occur. There were no performance stock units that vested in the three months ended April 30, 2024. The Company's performance against the defined goals is re-evaluated on a quarterly basis throughout the performance period and the recognition of the compensation expense is adjusted for subsequent changes in the estimated or actual outcome.

The Company values stock options and warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Grants of stock-based payment awards issued to non-employees for services rendered have been recorded at the fair value of the stock-based payment, which is the more readily determinable value. The grants are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. If an award is granted, but vesting does not occur, any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed in the period related to the termination of service.

Earnings Per Share

Basic net income or loss per share attributable to common stockholders excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders during the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income or loss per share reflects potential dilution and is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, which is increased by the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued. However, if the effect of any additional securities are anti-dilutive (i.e., resulting in a higher net income per share or lower net loss per share), they are excluded from the dilutive earnings per share

F-12

computation. The dilutive effect of stock options, warrants, and restricted stock is calculated using the treasury-stock method and the dilutive effect of the Series B Preferred stock is calculated using the if-converted method.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in computing basic and diluted net income attributable to common stockholders per common share (in thousands, except per share data):

Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided in accordance with ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax expense results from the net change during the period of deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. As of April 30, 2024 and January 31, 2024, the Company recognized a deferred tax asset of $331 thousand and $503 thousand, respectively, which is included in other long-term assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company regularly evaluates the need for a valuation allowance related to the deferred tax asset.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies an issuer’s accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models that require separate accounting for embedded conversion features. ASU 2020-06 also simplifies the settlement assessment that entities are required to perform to determine whether a contract qualifies for equity classification and makes targeted improvements to the disclosures for convertible instruments and earnings per share (EPS) guidance.

F-13

This update is effective for the Company’s fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-02, "Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investment Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method." The amendments in this update permit reporting entities to elect to account for their tax equity investments, regardless of the tax credit program from which the income tax credits are received, using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2023-06, "Disclosure Improvements: Amendments - Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative." The FASB issued the standard to introduce changes to US GAAP that originate in either SEC Regulation S-X or S-K, which are rules about the form and content of financial reports. The provisions of the standard are contingent when the SEC removes the related disclosure provisions from Regulation S-X and S-K. The Company does not expect the provisions of the standard to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures." The new guidance is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendment is effective retrospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that the adoption ASU No. 2023-07 will have to the financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures." The new guidance is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in the ASU address investor requests for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The amendment is effective retrospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, on a prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU No. 2023-09 will have to the financial statements and related disclosures.

Management does not believe that any recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, when adopted, will have a material effect on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Series B Preferred Stock

The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the original issue price, plus any dividends declared but unpaid or the amount of cash, securities or other property to which such holder would be entitled to receive with respect to such shares of Series B Preferred Stock if such shares had been converted to common stock immediately prior to such liquidation.

Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock were entitled to receive cumulative cash dividends at an annual rate of eight percent (8%). Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock had no voting rights. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock was convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of common stock at a rate of 1 share of Series B Preferred Stock into 15 shares of common stock.

Note 9 - Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation, Claims and Assessments

From time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm its business.

On May 15, 2024, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with directors Alfred D’Agostino, Steve Burns, Dean Janeway and Thomas Toto (each, a “Director”) relating to certain options purported to have been granted by the Company in 2018 and 2019 (the "Purported Options") under prior leadership that exceeded the availability under the Company’s equity plan at the time of the purported grants.

In exchange for a release of any and all claims or rights related to the Purported Options, the Company agreed to issue each Director a payment of approximately $113 thousand and approximately 17 thousand shares of common stock. In connection with the Settlement Agreement and the issuance of the shares, the Company incurred a one-time charge of approximately $900 thousand within selling, general and administrative expense in the period ended April 30, 2024. See Note 12 for additional information.

Licensing and Royalty Agreements

On March 1, 2010, the Company was assigned a Development and License agreement, dated January 1, 2009, with Daniel Dougherty (the “License Agreement”). Under the terms of the License Agreement, the royalty rate payable by the Company is 6% of net sales up to $500 thousand of net sales (as defined in the agreement) for each year under the License Agreement; 4% of net sales from $500 thousand up to $2.5 million of net sales for each year under the License Agreement; 2% of net sales from $2.5 million up to $20 million of net sales for each year under the License Agreement; and 1% of net sales in excess of $20 million of net sales for each year under the License Agreement.

In order to continue exclusivity, the Company shall pay a minimum royalty of $125,000 each year.

F-18

The Company incurred approximately $182 thousand and $189 thousand of royalty expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2024 and April 30, 2023, respectively. Royalty expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Note 10 –Leases

We account for leases in accordance with ASC 842 “Leases” (“ASC 842”). We determine whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. This determination generally depends on whether the arrangement conveys the right to control the use of an identified fixed asset explicitly or implicitly for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

In April 2024, the Company's lease of additional warehouse and office space in Farmingdale, New York became effective. The lease agreement has a five year term with monthly rent of approximately $16.7 thousand for the first year, increasing to approximately $17.2 thousand for the second year, increasing to approximately $17.7 thousand for the third year, increasing to approximately $18.2 thousand for the fourth year and increasing to approximately $18.8 thousand for the fifth year. As a result of this lease the Company recognized a ROU asset and a ROU liability of approximately $873 thousand.

During the three months ended April 30, 2024, the Company amended its lease for 25 Branca Road, East Rutherford, NJ. The amended lease has a termination date of August 31, 2024. The Company is currently in negotiations with the landlord on a potential extension and expansion of the lease of the existing facility. As the lease is now short term in nature the Company wrote off approximately $897 thousand of the ROU asset and ROU liability.

We have operating leases for offices and other facilities used for our operations. We also have finance leases consisting primarily of machinery and equipment. Our leases have remaining lease terms of approximately 0.33 years to 7.6 years.

Supplemental cash flow and other information related to leases was as follows (in thousands):

Note 11 - Income Tax Provision

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ending April 30, 2024 and April 30, 2023 is 24.5% and 24.5%, respectively. Differences with statutory rate primarily relate to state taxes.

As of April 30, 2024, the net deferred tax asset of approximately $331 thousand is primarily related to accrued payroll.

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future generation for taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. There was no valuation allowance as of April 30, 2024 or January 31, 2024.

The Company evaluated the provisions of ASC 740 related to the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, present, and disclose uncertain positions that the Company has taken or expects to take in its tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. Differences between tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and the net benefit recognized and measured pursuant to the interpretation are referred to as “unrecognized benefits.” A liability is recognized (or amount of net operating loss carry forward or amount of tax refundable is reduced) for unrecognized tax benefit because it represents an enterprise’s potential future obligation to the taxing authority for a tax position that was not recognized as a result of applying the provisions of ASC 740.

Note 12 - Subsequent Event

On May 15, 2024, the Company entered into Settlement Agreements (the "Settlement Agreements") with directors Alfred D’Agostino, Steve Burns, Dean Janeway and Thomas Toto (each, a “Director”) relating to certain options purported to be granted by the Company in 2018 and 2019 by prior leadership (the "Purported Options") that exceeded the availability under the Company’s equity plan at the time of grant.

In exchange for a release of any and all claims or rights related to the Purported Options, the Company agreed to issue each Director a payment of approximately $113 thousand and approximately 17 thousand shares of common stock.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended April 30, 2024 and 2023

The following table sets forth the summary of the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended April 30, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

	For the Three Months Ended
	April 30, 2024		April 30, 2023
Net sales	$	29,838	$	23,121
Cost of Sales	$	22,375	$	16,750
Gross Profit	$	7,463	$	6,371
Operating Expenses	$	6,690	$	4,428
Other Expenses	$	(41)	$	(163)
Income tax expense	$	(179)	$	(525)
Income from equity method investment in Chef Inspirational Foods, LLC	$	—	$	146
Net Income	$	553	$	1,401

For the three months ended April 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company reported net income of approximately $0.6 million and $1.4 million, respectively. The change in net income between the three months ended April 30, 2024 and 2023 is due to the to the changes in net sales, cost of sales and operating expenses described below.

Net sales: Net Sales increased by approximately 29.1% to $29.8 million during the three months ended April 30, 2024, from $23.1 million during the three months ended April 30, 2023. The increase in sales is due to both volume gains, successful pricing actions, and the acquisition of CIF in June 2023. Volume gains were driven by increased demand at existing customers, successful trade and marketing promotions, same-customer cross-selling, and product additions.

Cost of sales: Cost of sales increased by approximately 34% to $22.4 million or 75% of Net Sales during the three months ended April 30, 2024, from $16.8 million or 72% of Net Sales during the three months ended April 30, 2023. The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of Net Sales is due to increases in commodity costs, in particular the price of chicken, partially offset by improvements in procurement and manufacturing efficiencies.

Gross Profit Margin: The gross profit margin was 25% and 28% for the three months ended April 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in gross profit margin between the three months ended April 30, 2024 and 2023 is due to increased commodity costs, partially offset by customer price increases and manufacturing efficiencies.

2

Operating Expenses: Operating expenses increased by 51% during the three months ended April 30, 2024, as compared to the three months ended April 30, 2023. The $2.3 million increase in total operating expenses is primarily attributable to the following:

•One time legal settlement expenses of approximately $900 thousand, due to the Settlement Agreement with directors (see Note 9)

•Payroll and Related Expenses inclusive of stock-based compensation increased by approximately $271 thousand mainly related to increased sales and administrative personnel expense and additional stock-based compensation;

•Advertising expenses increased by approximately $204 thousand due to new strategies and enhanced focus to drive increased velocities of our existing products;

•Amortization of intangible assets increased by approximately $278 thousand due to the acquisition of CIF, which was completed in June 2023;

•Professional fees and director fees increased by approximately $166 thousand due to the growth of the Company and the use of consultants to achieve manufacturing efficiencies as well as information technology integration; and

•Freight related expenses increased by approximately $140 thousand due to increased sales.

Other Expenses: Other expenses decreased by approximately $122 thousand to $41 thousand for the three months ended April 30, 2024, as compared to $163 thousand for the three months ended April 30, 2023. The decrease is primarily due to interest income in the current year of approximately $92 thousand.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We finance our operations with internally generated funds, supplemented by credit arrangements with third parties and, potentially, capital market financing.

Working Capital

The following table summarizes total current assets, liabilities and working capital at April 30, 2024 compared to January 31, 2024 (in thousands):

	April 30, 2024		January 31, 2024		Change
Current Assets	$	25,369	$	23,566	$	1,803
Current Liabilities	18,522		16,690		1,832
Working Capital	$	6,847	$	6,876	$	(29)

As of April 30, 2024, we had working capital of approximately $6.8 million as compared to working capital of approximately $6.9 million as of January 31, 2024, relatively. The slight decrease in working capital is primarily attributable to an increase in cash of approximately $2.0 million, and an increase of accounts receivables of approximately $0.2 million, largely offset by a decrease of inventory of approximately $0.3 million, and an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of approximately $1.8 million.

Long-Term Requirements

As of April 30, 2024, we have $0 outstanding under our Credit Agreement and approximately $4.2 million outstanding under our Term Loan Agreement with M&T Bank. The Term Loan Agreement has a maturity date of January 17, 2027. In addition, we have payments of $750 thousand (plus accrued interest) due on December 29, 2024 and 2025 pursuant to promissory notes issued to the sellers of T&L and Olive Branch, as discussed in Item 1, Note 6. In addition, we have a promissory note of $2.7 million with the sellers of CIF (as discussed in Note 1). Of the $2.7 million, a payment of $1.2 million is due on June 28, 2024, and $1.5 million is payable in common stock on June 28, 2025. We also have operating leases for offices and other facilities used for our operations and finance leases comprised primarily of machinery and equipment, as discussed in Note 10.

Liquidity and capital requirements outlook

Although the expected revenue growth and control of expenses leads management to believe that it is probable that the Company’s cash resources will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements through at least the next twelve months, based on current and projected levels of operations, the Company may require additional funding to finance growth or achieve its strategic objectives. If such financing is required, there can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. In the event funding is not available on reasonable terms, the Company might be required to change its growth strategy and/or seek funding on an alternative basis, but there is no guarantee it will be able to do so.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, who serves as our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, respectively, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well-designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Due to the inherent limitations of control systems, not all misstatements may be detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. Controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the above objectives have been met.

As of April 30, 2024, we evaluated, with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, at the reasonable assurance level, in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15, that occurred during our last quarter to which this Quarterly Report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
