CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in this report are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. The forward-looking statements involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements, other than statements related to present facts or current conditions or of historical facts, contained in this prospectus, including statements regarding our strategy, future operations, future financial position, future revenues, and projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management, are forward-looking statements. Accordingly, these statements involve estimates, assumptions and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in them. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “will,” “would,” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and our actual results could differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include:

the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, financial condition and results of operations, and our inability to mitigate such impacts;
the adequacy of our liquidity to pursue our business objectives;
reliance on a limited number of customers;
loss or retirement of key executives, including prior to identifying a successor;
adverse economic conditions or intense competition;
pricing pressures in the market and lack of control over the pricing of raw materials and freight;
entry of new competitors and products;
adverse federal, state and local government regulation (including, but not limited to, the FDA);
liability related to the consumption of our products
ability to secure placement of our products in key retail locations;
our ability to integrate acquisitions and related businesses;
wage and price inflation;
maintenance of quality control; and
issues related to the enforcement of our intellectual property rights.

For more information regarding these risks and uncertainties as well as certain additional risks that we face, you should refer to “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this report and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and to subsequent reports and registration statements filed from time to time with the SEC. We caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are current only as of the date on which we issued this report. We do not intend to, and we disclaim any duty or obligation to, update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect new information or future events or for any other reason.

Nature of Operations

 

MamaMancini’s Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), (formerly known as Mascot Properties, Inc.) was organized on July 22, 2009 as a Nevada corporation. The Company has a year-end of January 31.

 

The CompanyOur subsidiary, MamaMancini’s Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“Mamas”) is a marketer, manufacturer and distributor of beef meatballs with sauce, turkey meatballs with sauce, beef meat loaf, sausage & peppers, chicken parmesan 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 dinners, single-size Pasta Bowls,pasta bowls, bulk deli, packaged refrigerated and frozen products. The Company’sMamas 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. The Company’s customers are located throughout the United States, with large concentrations in the Northeast and Southeast.

 

On December 29, 2021, the Company made two acquisitions which expand the Company’s core product lines, and access to specific markets. T&L Creative Salads, Inc. (“T&L”) and Olive Branch, LLC (“OB”Olive Branch”), are related premier gourmet food manufacturers based in New York. T&L offers 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 FDA.Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). Olive Branch started operations six years ago as a separate company to concentrate 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, Inc.LLC (“CIF”), a leading developer, innovator, marketer and sales company selling fresh and frozen prepared foods, for an investment of $1.2 million, at an implied enterprise value for CIF of $5 million. The investment consists of $500,000 in cash and $700,000 in the Company’s common stock. The Company also was granted the option to purchase the remaining seventy-six percent (76%) interest in CIF within one year of June 28, 2022. The option purchase price is an additional $3.8 million, of which $3.5 million would be paid in cash and $300,000 in common stock, which would be paid within a two-year period from June 28, 2022.fromthe date of the exercise of the option. The acquisition of the interest in CIF is being accounted for under the equity method of accounting for investments.

Note 2 – Business Acquisitions

The Company accounts for acquisitions in accordance with FASB ASC 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC 805”), and goodwill in accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other” (“ASC 350”). The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination is recorded as goodwill. ASC 805 specifies criteria to be used in determining whether intangible assets acquired in a business combination must be recognized and reported separately from goodwill. Amounts assigned to goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets are based on independent appraisals or internal estimates.

On December 23, 2021, the Company announced the signing of definitive agreements for two acquisitions – T&L and OB, which are gourmet food manufacturers based in New York. The closing of these transactions was completed on December 29, 2021. The Company acquired T&L and OB for a combined purchase price of $14.0 million, including $11.0 million in cash at closing and $3.0 million in a promissory note. The promissory note requires annual principal payments of $750,000 payable on each anniversary of the closing, together with accrued interest at a rate of three and one-half (3.5%) per annum. The holder of the Note is T&L Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is guaranteed by the Company. The holder has a right of set-off against the balance due for any matters which are the subject of an indemnification under the transaction agreements. The cash payment was funded through cash on hand and a $7.5 million long-term acquisition note from M&T Bank (see below). Anthony Morello, Jr. will remain as CEO of T&L Acquisition Corp.

On December 29, 2021, the Company entered into a Multiple Disbursement Term Loan (“Loan”) with M&T Bank for the original principal amount of $7,500,000 payable in monthly installments over a 60-month amortization period. The Maturity Date of the Loan is January 17, 2027. Interest is payable on the unpaid principal amount of the Loan at a variable rate per annum based on the Company’s Senior Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement between Borrower and Bank) established with respect to the Borrower as of the date of any advance under the Loan as follows: if the Senior Funded Debt/EBITDA ratio is: (i) greater than 2.25 but less than or equal to 2.50, 4.12 percentage point(s) above one-day (i.e., overnight) SOFR (as defined); (ii) greater than 1.50 but less than or equal to 2.25, 3.62 percentage points above one-day SOFR; or (iii) 1.50 or less, 3.12 percentage points above one-day SOFR. In all events set forth at subsections (i) through (iii) in the preceding sentence, if SOFR shall at any time be less than 0.25%, one-day SOFR shall be deemed to be 0.25% and the foregoing margins shall be applied to the SOFR Index Floor.

All of the proceeds of the Loan were utilized to fund the acquisition of T&L and OB.

F-7

For the three months ended October 31, 2022, T&L had revenue and net income before taxes of approximately $12.6 million and approximately $1.7 million, respectively. For the three months ended October 31, 2022, OB had revenue and net income before taxes of approximately $1.8 million and approximately $257,100, respectively. For the nine months ended October 31, 2022, T&L had revenue and net income before taxes of approximately $30.7 million and approximately $1.7 million respectively. For the nine months ended October 31, 2022, OB had revenue and net income before taxes of approximately $5.0 million and approximately $305,200, respectively. These amounts are included in the condensed statements of operations for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2022.

The following presents the unaudited pro-forma combined results of operations for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2021 of T&L and OB with the Company as if the entities were combined on February 1, 2021.

The unaudited pro-forma results of operations are presented for information purposes only. The unaudited pro-forma results of operations are not intended to present actual results that would have been attained had the acquisitions been completed as of February 1, 2021 or to project potential operating results as of any future date or for any future periods.

ASC 805 defines the acquirer in a business combination as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in a business combination and establishes the acquisition date as the date the acquirer achieves control. ASC 805 requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquirer (if any) at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. ASC 805 also requires the acquirer to recognize contingent consideration (if any) at the acquisition date, measured at its fair value at that date.

The following summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date:

Schedule of Asset Acquired and Liabilities Assumed

Assets:   
Cash $591,458 
Accounts receivable  2,715,515 
Inventories  1,221,055 
Fixed assets, net  503,907 
Intangibles  10,574,334 
Total identified assets acquired $15,606,269 

Liabilities:   
Accounts payable and accrued expenses $1,606,269 
Total liabilities assumed  1,606,269 
     
Total net assets acquired $14,000,000 

The acquisition method of accounting requires extensive use of estimates and judgments to allocate the considerations transferred to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The amounts used in computing the purchase price differ from the amounts in the purchase agreements due to fair value measurement conventions prescribed by accounting standards.

F-8

The intangible assets acquired include the trademarks and customer relationships.

The allocation of purchase price is still deemed to be a preliminary allocation because of potential changes in the valuation of intangibles and the acquired fixed assets.

The goodwill represents the assembled workforce, acquired capabilities, and future economic benefits resulting from the acquisition. All of the goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.

F-6

Principles of Consolidation

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

The unaudited interim financial information furnished herein reflects all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring items, which in the opinion of management are necessary to fairly state the financial position of the Company and the results of its operations for the periods presented. This report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2022 filed on May 27, 2022.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the entities as of the reporting period ending dates and for the reporting periods. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principlesGAAP 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, the following: allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory obsolescence, purchase price accounting and the fair value of share-based payments.stock-based payments, inventory reserves, 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 changechanges 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.

F-9

 

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.

 

Cash

 

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company held no cash equivalents at October 31, 2022April 30, 2023 and January 31, 2022.2023.

 

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. At October 31, 2022,As of April 30, 2023, the Company had approximately $2.84.3 million in cash balances that exceed federally insured limits.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon a review of the outstanding accounts receivable, historical collection information and existing economic conditions. The Company determines if receivables are past due based on days outstanding, and amounts are written off when determined to be uncollectible by management. As of October 31, 2022April 30, 2023 and January 31, 2022,2023, the reserve for uncollectible accounts was approximately $246,678233,000 and $2,000233,000, respectively.

NRV is defined as the estimated selling prices less the costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The cost of inventory is determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) valuation method. Inventory was comprised of the followingbasis. The Company regularly reviews inventory quantities on-hand and records a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on selling prices, 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. The reserve for obsolescence at October 31, 2022April 30, 2023 and January 31, 2022:2023 was $32,433 and $32,433, respectively.

 

Inventories by major category are as follows:

Property and Equipment

 

Property 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 are:

 Schedule of Property and Equipment Estimated Useful Lives

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

 

(*)Amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease or the estimated useful lives, whichever period is shorter.

 

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 condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Intangible Assets

Software

The Company accounts for acquired internal-use software licenses and certain costs within the scope of ASC 350-40, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software as intangible assets. The Company capitalized $87,639 of costs incurred in the year ended January 31, 2021 to implement cloud computing arrangements. Acquired internal-use software licenses are amortized over the term of the arrangement on a straight-line basis to the line item within the condensed consolidated statements of operations that reflects the nature of the license. In November 2021, the Company finalized the implementation process and began to use the software license. During the three and nine months ended October 31, 2022, the Company recorded amortization of $35,410 and $66,512, respectively.

Additionally, the Company evaluates its accounting for fees paid in an agreement to determine whether it includes a license to internal-use software. If the agreement includes a software license, the Company accounts for the software license as an intangible asset. Acquired software licenses are recognized and measured at cost, which includes the present value of the license obligation if the license is to be paid for over time. If the agreement does not include a software license, the Company accounts for the arrangement as a service contract (hosting arrangement) and hosting costs are generally expensed as incurred.

 

Goodwill

 

The Company doesGoodwill is initially recorded at fair value and not amortize goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets. The Company tests goodwillamortized, but is reviewed for impairment at least annually as of January 31 or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate thatimpairment indicators arise. Our goodwill is evaluated for impairment by first performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether a quantitative goodwill test is necessary. If it is determined, based on qualitative factors, the fair value of the entity, or the reporting unit,Company may be below its carrying amount (a “triggering event”). Whenever events or circumstances change, entities have the option to first make a qualitative evaluation about the likelihood of goodwill impairment. If impairment is deemed more likely than not management would perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, the two-step impairment test is not required. In assessing the qualitative factors, the Company assessed relevant events and circumstances that may impact the fair value andless than the carrying amount, ofor if significant changes to macro-economic factors related to the reporting unit. The identification of the relevant events and circumstances and how these mayunit have occurred that could materially impact a reporting unit’s fair value, or carrying amount involve significant judgements and assumptions. The judgement and assumptions include the identification of macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance, Company specific events and share price trends, an assessment of whether each relevant factor will impact thea quantitative goodwill impairment test positively or negatively, and the magnitude of an such impact.

Ifwould be required. The quantitative test is to identify if a quantitative assessment is performed, a reporting unit’s fair value is compared to its carrying value. A reporting unit’s fair value is determined based upon consideration of various valuation methodologies, including the income approach, which utilizes projected future cash flows discounted at rates commensurate with the risks involved and multiples of current and future earnings.potential impairment exists. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, thevalue, an impairment loss is recognized cannotin an amount equal to that excess, not to exceed the totalcarrying amount of goodwill. Our qualitative assessment for the three months ended April 30, 2023 did not indicate that it was more likely than not that an impairment of the Company was necessary, and as such, no quantitative goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

test was deemed necessary. Management evaluates the remaining useful life of an intangible asset that is not being amortized each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life. If an intangible asset that is not being amortized is subsequently determined to have a finite useful life, it is amortized prospectively over its estimated remaining useful life.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

For purpose of this disclosure, 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 October 31,April 30, 2023 and 2022 and 2021 were $24,43271,185 and $33,866, respectively. Research and development expenses for the nine months ended October 31, 2022 and 2021 were $92,759 and $87,84326,535, respectively.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

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

 

The Company’s sales predominantly are generated from the sale of finished products to customers, containwhich contains a single performance obligation and revenue is recognized at a single point in time when ownership, risks and rewards transfer. Typically, this occurs when the goods are shipped toreceived by the customer. Revenues are recognized in an amount that reflects the net consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for the goods. The Company reports all amounts billed to a customer in a sale transaction as revenue. The Company elected to treat shipping and handling activities as fulfillment activities, and the related costs are recorded as selling expenses in general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

The Company promotes its products with advertising, consumer incentives and trade promotions. These programs include discounts, slotting fees, coupons, rebates, in-store display incentives and volume-based incentives. Customer trade promotion and consumer incentive activities are recorded as a reduction to the transaction price based on amounts estimated as being due to customers and consumers at the end of a period. The Company derives these estimates principally on historical utilization and redemption rates. The Company does not receive a distinct service in relation to the advertising, consumer incentives and trade promotions.

 

Payment terms in the Company’s invoices are based on the billing schedule established in contracts and purchase orders with customers. The Company recognizes the related trade receivable when the goods are shipped.received by the customer.

Advertising

 

Costs incurred for producing and communicating advertising for the Company are charged to operations as incurred. Producing and communicating advertising expenses for the three months ended October 31,April 30, 2023 and 2022 and 2021 were approximately $99,736208,570 and $196,495 respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”), which establishes financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation. It defines a fair value-based method of accounting for an employee stock option or similar equity instrument. The Company accounts for compensation cost for stock option plans in accordance with ASC 718.

 

The Company recognizes all forms of share-basedstock-based payments, including stock option grants, warrants and restricted stock grants, at their fair value on the grant date, which are based on the estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest.

 

Share-basedStock-based payments, excluding restricted stock, are valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Grants of share-basedstock-based payment awards issued to non-employees for services rendered have been recorded at the fair value of the share-basedstock-based payment, which is the more readily determinable value. The grants are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods, 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. Stock-based compensation expenses are included in cost of goods sold, or selling, general and administrative expenses, or research and development, depending on the nature of the services provided, in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Share-basedstock-based payments issued to placement agents are classified as a direct cost of a stock offering and are recorded as a reduction in additional paid in capital.

 

For the three months ended October 31,April 30, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, share-basedstock-based compensation amounted to $23,62655,384 and $19,6810, respectively.

 

For the ninethree months ended October 31,April 30, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, share-based compensation amounted to $there were 35,959no and $20,467, respectively.stock-based awards issued besides restricted stock issued.

 

F-14F-10

 

 

For the nine months ended October 31, 2022 and 2021, when computing fair value of share-based payments, the Company has considered the following variables:

Schedule of Fair Value of Share-Based Payments

October 31, 2022October 31, 2021
Risk-free interest rate2.77%N/A
Expected life of grants6.5 yearsN/A
Expected volatility of underlying stock85.74%N/A
Dividends-%N/A

The expected option term is computed using the “simplified” method as permitted under the provisions of ASC 718-10-S99. The Company uses the simplified method to calculate expected term of share options and similar instruments as the Company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term.

The expected stock price volatility for the Company’s stock options was estimated using the historical volatilities of the Company’s common stock. Risk free interest rates were obtained from U.S. Treasury rates for the applicable periods.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

EarningsBasic net income per share (“EPS”) is the amount of earnings attributable to each share of common stock. For convenience, the termstockholders excludes dilution and is used to refer to either earnings or loss per share. EPS is computed pursuant to Section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 260-10-45-10 through 260-10-45-16, basic EPS shall be computed by dividing net income availableor loss attributable to common stockholders (the numerator)during the period by the weighted-averageweighted average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) during the period. Income availableDiluted net income or loss per share reflects potential dilution and is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders shall be computed by deducting both the dividends declared inweighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, on preferred stock (whether or not paid) and the dividends accumulated for the period on cumulative preferred stock (whether or not earned) from income from continuing operations (if that amount appears in the income statement) and also from net income. The computation of diluted EPS is similar to the computation of basic EPS except that the denominatorwhich is increased to includeby the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued duringissued. However, if the period to reflecteffect 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 potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through contingent shares issuance arrangement,dilutive net income computation. The dilutive effect of stock options, or warrants.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.

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 (benefit) 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 and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. As of October 31, 2022April 30, 2023 and January 31, 2022,2023, the Company recognized a deferred tax asset of $350,895372,361 and $448,501717,559, 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 May 2021, the FASB issued accounting standards update ASU 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”, to clarify and reduce diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public and nonpublic entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company adopted the new standard on February 1, 2022 and the adoption of the new standard did not have a significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

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. This update will be effective for the Company’s fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Entities can elect to adopt the new guidance through either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective method of transition. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of the new standard is not expected to have a significant impact on itsthe Company’s consolidated financial statements and intends to adopt the standard as of January 1, 2024.statements.

 

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.

Note 11 - Income TaxesTax Provision

 

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and nine months ending October 31, 2022April 30, 2023 is 21.8% and 22.4%, respectively.26.25%. Differences with statutory rate primarily relate to state taxes. Deferred tax assets are net operating loss carryforwards and other assets.

 

Deferred taxes are caused primarily by net operating loss carryforwards. U.S. Tax Legislation enacted in 2017 (the “TCJA”) has significantly changed certain aspects of U.S. federal income taxation. Net Operating Losses (“NOLs”) generated in 2017 and prior years can be carried forward for 20 years. NOLs generated in 2018 – 2020, as enacted by the CARES Act, can be carried forward indefinitely. However, NOLs generated in 2021 are also carried forward indefinitely but limited to 80% of taxable income.

 

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 October 31, 2022April 30, 2023 or January 31, 2022.2023.

 

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.

 

The actual yearly tax rate will vary due to numerous factors, such as level and geographic mix of income and losses, acquisitions, investments, intercompany transactions, our stock price, changes in our deferred tax assets and liabilities and their valuation, changes in the laws, regulations, administrative practices, principles, and interpretations related to tax, including changes to the global tax framework and other laws and accounting rules in various jurisdictions

 

Note 12 – Subsequent Events

On November 17, 2022, the Company held a final closing of its offering of Series B Preferred Stock, wherein it sold an additional 7,400 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for gross proceeds of $185,000.

During the ninethree months ended October 31, 2022,April 30, 2023, the Company paid dividends on the Series B Preferred stock of $11,313.$27,300. During the ninethree months ended October 31, 2021,April 30, 2022, the Company received proceeds of $19,080$1,775,000 from the exerciseborrowings from a line of options.credit. These cash in-flows were offset by payments of $144,910$129,310 paid for financerepayment of a term loan and $58,008 paid in repayment of financing lease payments.obligation.

 

Although the expected revenue growth and control of expenses lead management to believe that it is probable that the Company’s cash resources will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements through December 12, 2023,at least the next twelve months, based on current and projected levels of operations, the Company may require additional funding to finance growth andor achieve its strategic objectives. If such financing is required, there can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or 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.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2021, the FASB issued accounting standards update ASU 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”, to clarify and reduce diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public and nonpublic entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company adopted the new standard on February 1, 2022 and the adoptionAs of the new standard did not have afiling date of this report, there were no significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Accountingchanges in our critical accounting estimates from those discussed in our 2023 Form 10-K. See Note 2 of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements 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. This update will be effective for the Company’s fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Entities can elect to adopt the new guidance through either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective method of transition. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of the new standard on its financial statements and intends to adopt the standard as of January 1, 2024.

Management does not believe that any recentlypronouncements issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, when adopted will have a material effect onthat may impact the accompanying condensedCompany’s consolidated financial statements.position, earnings, cash flows or disclosures.”

 

Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies

 

Our condensed consolidated financial statements and related public financial information are based onAs of the applicationfiling date of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenues and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information containedthis report, there were no significant changes in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use ofcritical accounting estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.

Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 3 of our condensed consolidated financial statements. While all these significant accounting policies impact our financial condition and results of operations, we view certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on our financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Our management believes that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause effect ondiscussed in our consolidated results2023 Form 10-K. See Note 2 of operations, financial position or liquidityNotes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods presented in this report.

We believe the following critical accounting policies and procedures, among others, affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements:

4

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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, the following: allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory obsolescence and the fair value of share-based payments.

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.

Intangible Assets

Software

The Company accounts for acquired internal-use software licenses and certain costs within the scope of ASC 350-40, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software as intangible assets. The Company capitalized $87,639 of costs incurred in the nine months ended October 31, 2022 to implement cloud computing arrangements. Acquired internal-use software licenses are amortized over the term of the arrangement on a straight-line basis to the line item within the condensed consolidated statements of operations that reflects the nature of the license.

Additionally, the Company evaluates its accounting for fees paid in an agreement to determine whether it includes a license to internal-use software. If the agreement includes a software license, the Company accounts for the software license as an intangible asset. Acquired software licenses are recognized and measured at cost, which includes the present value of the license obligation if the license is to be paid for over time. If the agreement doespronouncements issued but not include a software license, the Company accounts for the arrangement as a service contract (hosting arrangement) and hosting costs are generally expensed as incurred.

Goodwill

The Company does not amortize goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets. The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually as of April 30 or if an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate that the fair value of the entity, or the reporting unit, may be below its carrying amount (a “triggering event”). Whenever events or circumstances change, entities have the option to first make a qualitative evaluation about the likelihood of goodwill impairment. If impairment is deemed more likely than not, management would perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, the two-step impairment test is not required. In assessing the qualitative factors, the Company assessed relevant events and circumstancesyet adopted that may impact the fair value and the carrying amount of the reporting unit. The identification of the relevant events and circumstances and how these may impact a reporting unit’s fair value or carrying amount involve significant judgements and assumptions. The judgement and assumptions include the identification of macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overallCompany’s consolidated financial performance, Company specific events and share price trends, an assessment of whether each relevant factor will impact the impairment test positively or negatively, and the magnitude of an such impact.

If a quantitative assessment is performed, a reporting unit’s fair value is compared to its carrying value. A reporting unit’s fair value is determined based upon consideration of various valuation methodologies, including the income approach, which utilizes projected futureposition, earnings, cash flows discounted at rates commensurate with the risks involved and multiples of current and future earnings. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized cannot exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.or

Management evaluates the remaining useful life of an intangible asset that is not being amortized each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life. If an intangible asset that is not being amortized is subsequently determined to have a finite useful life, it is amortized prospectively over its estimated remaining useful life.

Other Intangibles

Amortizable intangible assets, including tradenames and trademarks, are amortized on a straight-line basis over 3 years. Customer relationships are amortized on a straight-line basis over 4 to 5 years.

5

Revenue Recognition

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

The Company’s sales predominantly are generated from the sale of finished products to customers, contain a single performance obligation and revenue is recognized at a single point in time when ownership, risks and rewards transfer. Typically, this occurs when the goods are shipped to the customer. Revenues are recognized in an amount that reflects the net consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for the goods. The Company reports all amounts billed to a customer in a sale transaction as revenue. Under the new revenue guidance, the Company elected to treat shipping and handling activities as fulfilment activities, and the related costs are recorded as selling expenses in general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”) which establishes financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation. It defines a fair value-based method of accounting for an employee stock option or similar equity instrument. The Company accounts for compensation cost for stock option plans in accordance with ASC 718.

The Company recognizes all forms of share-based payments, including stock option grants, warrants and restricted stock grants, at their fair value on the grant date, which are based on the estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest.

Share-based payments, excluding restricted stock, are valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Grants of share-based payment awards issued to non-employees for services rendered have been recorded at the fair value of the share-based payment, which is the more readily determinable value. The grants are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods, 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. Stock-based compensation expenses are included in cost of goods sold or selling, general and administrative expenses, depending on the nature of the services provided, in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Share-based payments issued to placement agents are classified as a direct cost of a stock offering and are recorded as a reduction in additional paid in capital.

When computing fair value of share-based payments, the Company has considered the following variables:

The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on the U.S. Treasury yield for a period consistent with the expected term of the option in effect at the time of the grant.
The Company has not paid any dividends on common stock since its inception and does not anticipate paying dividends on its common stock in the foreseeable future.
The expected option term is computed using the “simplified” method as permitted under the provisions of Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 110.
The term is the life of the grant.
The expected volatility was estimated using the historical volatilities of the Company’s common stock.
The forfeiture rate is based on the historical forfeiture rate for the Company’s unvested stock options, which was 0%.

Advertising

Costs incurred for producing and communicating advertising for the Company are charged to operations as incurred.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Smaller reporting companies are not required to provide the information required by this item.Not applicable.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based on evaluationThe 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 ofamended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the end oftime periods specified in the period covered by this Form 10-Q,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.

4

As of April 30, 2023, 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 (as definedwere effective, at the reasonable assurance level, in Rules 13a-15(c) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are not effective to ensureensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reportthe reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’sSEC’s rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officerthe Chief Executive Officer and chief financial officer,Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective including the following material weakness:

1)Lacked sufficient accounting staff to appropriately segregate duties and leverage decision makers to consolidate new entities and complete timely reporting of financial data;

2)Lacked sufficient orientation and experience with new ERP systems platform which hindered productivity and required additional supervision delaying timely reporting of financial statements.

(b) Remedial Measures

On September 19, 2022, the Company hired a well-qualified Chief Financial Officer (Anthony Gruber), with significant experience in financial reporting and controls, who reports to the Chief Executive Officer. Effective December 12, 2022, the Company has additionally hired a well-qualified and experienced Corporate Controller with substantial public company experience. The CFO and Controller will be leading a thorough review of the Company’s financial and disclosure controls. In addition, they will focus on the completion of the implementation of the Company’s new financial reporting system.

(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Other than the above, thereThere were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act Rule 13a-15, that occurred during our most recently completed fiscallast quarter to which this Quarterly Report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

From time to time, we may be involved in litigation incidental to the conduct of our business. We are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

Smaller reporting companiesIn addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risks that could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations which are discussed below and under the caption “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2023.

Risks Related to our Business

We have a limited history of profitability.

Since inception on February 22, 2010 and through January 31, 2023, we had raised approximately $22,724,000 in capital. During this same period, we have recorded net accumulated losses totaling $(10,060,226). As of January 31, 2023, we had working capital of $3,795,610. our net income (loss) for the two most recent fiscal years ended January 31, 2023 and January 31, 2022 have been $2,302,674 and $(251,926). Our ability to achieve continued profitability depends upon many factors, including its ability to develop and commercialize products. There can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve growth and profitability consistent with historical performance.

We will need additional capital, which may be difficult to raise for a variety of reasons.

While we believe that we have adequate financing to execute its current growth plan, in the case that we exceed our expected growth, we would need to raise additional capital and/or significantly cut expenses and overhead in order to operate the business through such date. Currently, we have no plan to raise additional capital, and our access to funding is always uncertain. There is no assurance that additional equity or debt financing will be available to us when needed, on acceptable terms or even at all. In the event that we are not able to secure financing, we may have to scale back our development plans or operations.

5

The majority of our business depends on a limited number of principal customers.

Because we depend on a limited number of customers for a significant portion of our sales, a loss of a small number of these customers could materially adversely affect our business and financial condition. During the twelve months ended January 31, 2023, the Company earned revenues from two customers representing approximately 25%, and 13% of gross sales. As of January 31, 2023, three customers represented approximately 20%, 15% and 11%, of total gross outstanding receivables, respectively. During the twelve months ended January 31, 2022, the Company earned revenues from three customers representing approximately 26%, 21% and 11% of gross sales. As of January 31, 2022, three customers represented approximately 11%, 10% and 7% of total gross outstanding receivables. If these principal customers cease ordering products from us, our business could be materially adversely affected.

Competitive product and pricing pressures in the food industry and the financial condition of customers and suppliers could adversely affect our ability to gain or maintain market share and/or profitability.

We currently operate in the highly competitive food industry, competing with other companies that have varying abilities to withstand changing market conditions. Any significant change in our relationship with a major customer, including changes in product prices, sales volume, or contractual terms may impact financial results. Such changes may result because our competitors may have substantial financial, marketing, and other resources that may change the competitive environment. If we are unable to establish economies of scale, marketing expertise, product innovation, and category leadership positions to respond to changing market trends, or if we are unable to increase prices while maintaining a customer base, our profitability and volume growth could be impacted in a materially adverse way. The success of our business depends, in part, upon the financial strength and viability of our suppliers and customers. The financial condition of those suppliers and customers is affected in large part by conditions and events that are beyond our control. A significant deterioration of their financial condition would adversely affect our financial results.

We face competition from companies who produce similar frozen products and other prepared foods, many of whom have longer operating histories or who have substantially more financial resources.

Many of our competitors have been in business for a significantly longer period of time than we have and have learned manufacturing techniques which can aid in efficiently producing their products. Additionally, many of these companies have successfully acquired a loyal customer base that would be difficult for us to compete with. Such customers may be unwilling to purchase our products due to brand loyalty or uncertainty in the highly competitive market in which we compete. In addition, if we gain traction in our particular niche of creating gourmet prepared foods, major food companies with substantial marketing and financial resources may attempt to compete more directly with us. In the event that such large companies do directly compete with us, our business may be adversely affected.

Our operations are subject to regulation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), U.S. Department of Agriculture (“USDA”), Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and other governmental entities and such regulations are subject to change from time to time which could impact how we manage our production and sale of products. Federal budget cuts could result in furloughs for government employees, including inspectors and reviewers for our supplier’s plants and products which could materially impact our ability to manufacture regulated products.

Our food products which are manufactured in third-party facilities are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA, the USDA and other national, state, and local authorities. For example, we are subject to the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and regulations promulgated thereunder by the FDA. This comprehensive regulatory program governs, among other things, the manufacturing, composition and ingredients, packaging, and safety of food. Under this program, the FDA regulates manufacturing practices for foods through, among other things, its current “good manufacturing practices” regulations, or GMP’s, and specifies the recipes for certain foods. Specifically, the USDA defines “all natural” as a product that contains no artificial ingredients, coloring ingredients or chemical preservatives and is minimally processed. The Company’s products were submitted to the USDA and approved as “all natural”. However, should the USDA change their definition of “all natural” at some point in the future, or should MamaMancini’s change their existing recipes to include ingredients that do not meet the USDA’s definition/ of “all natural”, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

6

The FTC and other authorities regulate how we market and advertise our products, and we could be the target of claims relating to alleged false or deceptive advertising under federal and state laws and regulations. Changes in these laws or regulations or the introduction of new laws or regulations could increase the costs of doing business for us or our customers or suppliers or restrict our actions, causing our results of operations to be adversely affected.

The need for and effect of product recalls could have a material adverse impact on our business.

If any of our products become misbranded or adulterated, we may need to conduct a product recall. The scope of such a recall could result in significant costs incurred as a result of the recall, potential destruction of inventory, and lost sales. Should consumption of any product cause injury and/or illness, we also may be liable for monetary damages as a result of one or more product liability judgments against us. A significant product recall or product liability case could cause a loss of consumer confidence in our food products and could have a material adverse effect on the value of our brand, results of operations and prospects.

We may be subject to significant liability if the consumption of any of our products causes illness or physical harm.

The sale of food products for human consumption involves the risk of injury or illness to consumers. Such injuries or illness may result from inadvertent mislabeling, tampering or product contamination or spoilage. Under certain circumstances, we may be required to recall or withdraw products, which may have a material adverse effect on our business. Even if a situation does not necessitate a recall or market withdrawal, product liability claims may be asserted against us. If the consumption of any of our products causes, or is alleged to have caused, a health-related illness, we may become subject to claims or lawsuits relating to such matters. Even if a product liability claim is unsuccessful, the negative publicity surrounding any assertion that our products caused illness or physical harm could adversely affect our reputation with existing and potential distributors, retailers and consumers and our corporate image and brand equity. Moreover, claims or liabilities of this sort might not be covered by insurance or by any rights of indemnity or contribution that we may have against others. A product liability judgment against us or a product recall or market withdrawal could have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation and operating results.

The impact of various food safety issues, environmental, legal, tax, and other regulations and related developments could adversely affect our sales and profitability.

Our products are subject to numerous food safety and other laws and regulations regarding the manufacturing, marketing, and distribution of food products, particularly the USDA, and state and local agencies. These regulations govern matters such as ingredients, advertising, taxation, relations with distributors and retailers, health and safety matters, and environmental concerns. The ineffectiveness of our or our manufacturer’s planning and policies with respect to these matters, and the need to comply with new or revised laws or regulations with regard to licensing requirements, trade and pricing practices, environmental permitting, or other food or safety matters, or new interpretations or enforcement of existing laws and regulations, as well as any related litigation, may have a material adverse effect on our sales and profitability.

Increases in the cost and restrictions on the availability of raw materials could adversely affect our financial results.

Our products include agricultural commodities such as tomatoes, onions, and meats and other items such as spices and flour, as well as packaging materials such as plastic, metal, paper, fiberboard, and other materials and inputs such as water, in order to manufacture products. The availability or cost of such commodities may fluctuate widely due to government policy and regulation, crop failures or shortages due to plant disease or insect and other pest infestation, weather conditions, potential impact of climate change, increased demand for biofuels, or other unforeseen circumstances. To the extent that any of the foregoing or other unknown factors increase the prices of such commodities or materials and we are unable to increase our prices or adequately hedge against such changes in a manner that offsets such changes, the results of its operations could be materially and adversely affected. Similarly, if supplier arrangements and relationships result in increased and unforeseen expenses, our financial results could be materially and adversely impacted.

7

Disruption of our supply chain could adversely affect our business.

Damage or disruption to our manufacturing or distribution capabilities due to weather, natural disaster, fire, terrorism, pandemic, strikes, the financial and/or operational instability of key suppliers, distributors, warehousing and transportation providers, or brokers, or other reasons could impair our ability to manufacture or sell our products. To the extent that we are unable to, or cannot financially mitigate the likelihood or potential impact of such events, or to effectively manage such events if they occur, particularly when a product is sourced from a single location, our business and results of operations may be materially adversely affected, and additional resources could be required to restore our supply chain.

Higher energy costs and other factors affecting the cost of producing, transporting, and distributing our products could adversely affect our financial results.

Rising fuel and energy costs may have a significant impact on our cost of operations, including the manufacture, transportation, and distribution of products. Fuel costs may fluctuate due to a number of factors outside of our control, including government policy and regulation and weather conditions. Additionally, we may be unable to maintain favorable arrangements with respect to the manufacturing costs of our products as a result of the rise in costs of procuring raw materials and transportation by our manufacturers. This may result in increased expenses and negatively affect operations.

If we fail to establish and maintain an effective system of internal control, we may not be able to report our financial results accurately or to prevent fraud. Any inability to report and file our financial results accurately and timely could harm our reputation and adversely impact the trading price of our common stock.

Effective internal control is necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, we may not be able to manage our business as effectively as we would if an effective control environment existed, and our business and reputation with investors may be harmed.

Because of our limited resources, there are limited controls over our information processing. There is inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives. Our management is composed of a small number of individuals resulting in a situation where limitations on segregation of duties exist. In order to remedy this situation, we would need to hire additional staff. Currently, we are unable to afford to hire additional staff to facilitate greater segregation of duties but will reassess our capabilities in the following year.

Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth above are the result of the lack of scale of our operations and are intrinsic to our small size. Nonetheless, our small size and our current internal control deficiencies may have a material adverse effect on our ability to accurately and timely report our financial information which, in turn, may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

As a result of our small size and our current internal control deficiencies, our financial condition, results of operation and access to capital may be materially adversely affected.

Global economic uncertainties continue to affect consumers’ purchasing habits and customer financial stability, which may affect sales volume and profitability on some of our products and have other impacts that we cannot fully predict.

As a result of continuing global economic uncertainties, price-conscious consumers may replace their purchases of our premium and value-added products with lower-cost alternatives, which could affect the price and volume of some of these products. The volume or profitability of our products may be adversely affected if consumers are reluctant to pay a premium for higher quality frozen foods or if they replace purchases of our products with cheaper alternatives. Additionally, distributors and retailers may become more conservative in response to these conditions and seek to reduce their inventories. Our results of operations depend upon, among other things, our ability to maintain and increase sales volume with our existing distributors and retailers, to attract new consumers and to provide products that appeal to consumers at prices they are willing and able to pay. Prolonged unfavorable economic conditions may have an adverse effect on our sales and profitability.

8

We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to grow effectively.

Our success depends in large part upon the abilities and continued service of our executive officers and other key employees, particularly Mr. Adam L. Michaels, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Mr. Matthew Brown, our President and Anthony Gruber, our Chief Financial Officer. There can be no assurance that we will be able to retain the services of such officers and employees. Our failure to retain the services of our key personnel could have a materially adverse effect on our business. In order to support our projected growth, we will be required to effectively recruit, hire, train and retain additional qualified management personnel. Our inability to attract and retain necessary personnel could have a materially adverse effect on our business.

The failure of new product or packaging introductions to gain trade and consumer acceptance and address changes in consumer preferences could adversely affect our sales.

Our success is dependent upon anticipating and reacting to changes in consumer preferences, including health and wellness. There are inherent marketplace risks associated with new product or packaging introductions, including uncertainties about trade and consumer acceptance. Moreover, success is dependent upon our ability to identify and respond to consumer trends through innovation. We may be required to increase expenditures for new product development and there is no guarantee that we will be successful in developing new products or improving upon products already in existence. Additionally, our new products may not achieve consumer acceptance and could materially negatively impact sales.

Changes in our promotional activities may impact, and may have a disproportionate effect on, our overall financial condition and results of operations.

We offer a variety of sales and promotion incentives to our customers and to consumers, such as price discounts, consumer coupons, volume rebates, cooperative marketing programs, slotting fees and in-store displays. Our net sales may periodically be influenced by the introduction and discontinuance of sales and promotion incentives. Reductions in overall sales and promotion incentives could impact our net sales and affect our results of operations in any particular fiscal quarter.

We may not be able to successfully implement our growth strategy on a timely basis or at all.

Our future success depends, in large part, on our ability to implement our growth strategy of expanding distribution and improving placement of our products, attracting new consumers to our brand and introducing new product lines and product extensions. Our ability to implement this item.growth strategy depends, among other things, on our ability to:

enter into distribution and other strategic arrangements with third-party retailers and other potential distributors of our products;
continue to compete in conventional grocery and mass merchandiser retail channels in addition to the natural and organic channel;
secure shelf space in key supermarket locations;
increase our brand awareness;
expand and maintain brand loyalty; and
develop new product lines and extensions.

We may not be able to successfully implement our growth strategy. Our sales and operating results will be adversely affected if we fail to implement our growth strategy or if we invest resources in a growth strategy that ultimately proves unsuccessful.

We are currently selling products in supermarkets in the United States. If we are unable to expand into mass-market retailers or sell products in a greater number of supermarkets we will fall short of our projections and our business and financial condition would be adversely affected.

As a smaller supplier, we may not sell in enough bulk in certain stores and as such our products may not be placed in the most ideal locations to catch the attention of end consumers. If we are unable to gain significant sales growth, our products may never be displayed in the most attractive locations in stores and our sales may suffer.

We may be unable to successfully execute our identified growth strategies or other growth strategies that we determine to pursue.

We currently have a limited corporate infrastructure. In order to pursue growth strategies, we will need to continue to build our infrastructure and operational capabilities. Our ability to do any of these successfully could be affected by any one or more of the following factors:

our ability to raise substantial amounts of additional capital if needed to fund the implementation of our business plan;
our ability to execute our business strategy;
the ability of our products to achieve market acceptance;
our ability to manage the expansion of our operations and any acquisitions we may make, which could result in increased costs, high employee turnover or damage to customer relationships;
our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel;
our ability to manage our third-party relationships effectively; and
our ability to accurately predict and respond to the rapid market changes in our industry and the evolving demands of the markets we serve.

Our failure to adequately address any one or more of the above factors could have a significant impact on our ability to implement our business plan and our ability to pursue other opportunities that arise.

We may be unable to maintain quality control.

Although we have entered into raw material supply agreements specifying certain minimum acceptable quality standards, there is no assurance that our current quality assurance procedures will be able to effectively monitor compliance. Additionally, in the event that we expand our operations and increase our output volume, including securing third-party manufacturers, there is no assurance that we will be able to adequately maintain quality controls or that our current manufacturing process is scalable.

There may be products liability and other legal claims.

We currently carry products liability insurance policy. Although we believe that the amount of insurance coverage is sufficient for our operations, there is no assurance that the coverage will be adequate.

Our brand and reputation may suffer from real or perceived issues involving the labeling and marketing of our products as “natural.”

Although the FDA and USDA have each issued statements regarding the appropriate use of the word “natural,” there is no single, U.S. government-regulated definition of the term “natural” for use in the food industry. The resulting uncertainty has led to consumer confusion, distrust and legal challenges. Plaintiffs have commenced legal actions against a number of food companies that market “natural” products, asserting false, misleading and deceptive advertising and labeling claims. Should we become subject to similar claims, consumers may avoid purchasing products from us or seek alternatives, even if the basis for the claim is unfounded. Adverse publicity about these matters may discourage consumers from buying our products. The cost of defending against any such claims could be significant. Any loss of confidence on the part of consumers in the truthfulness of our labeling or ingredient claims would be difficult and costly to overcome and may significantly reduce our brand value. Uncertainty as to the ingredients used in our products, regardless of the cause, may have a substantial and adverse effect on our brand and our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our finished goods inventory is located in a small number of warehouse facilities. Any damage or disruption at a storage facility would have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our finished goods inventory is located in a small number of warehouse facilities. A natural disaster, fire, power interruption, work stoppage or other unanticipated catastrophic event at this facility would significantly disrupt our ability to deliver our products and operate our business. If any material amount of our inventory were damaged, we would be unable to meet our contractual obligations and, as a result, our business, results of operations and financial condition would suffer.

We may be unable to defend our intellectual property.

Our business could be adversely affected if we are unable to adequately protect our intellectual property. Our current intellectual property consists of trade secret recipes and cooking processes for our products and trademarks. We rely on a combination of trademark, copyright and trade secret laws to establish and protect our proprietary rights. We will also use technical measures to protect our proprietary rights. We may, however, not be able to secure significant protection for service marks or trademarks that we obtain. Our inability to protect our intellectual property from others may impede our brand identity and could lead to consumer confusion.

Our intellectual property rights are valuable, and any inability to protect them could reduce the value of our services and brand.

Our business is largely based upon our recipes which are trade secrets and are not patentable. We may be unable to keep other companies from copying our recipes, or we may be subject to legal actions alleging intellectual property infringement, unfair competition or similar claims against us. Companies may have intellectual property rights covering aspects of our technologies or businesses. Defending ourselves against intellectual property infringement or similar claims would be expensive and would divert management’s attention. Additionally, there is no assurance that we would be successful in defending ourselves against such claims.

Risks Related To Our Securities

We currently have a limited trading volume, which can result in higher price volatility for, and reduced liquidity of, our common stock.

Our shares of common stock traded on the OTCQB from 2013 to July 2021 and on the NASDAQ Capital Market from July 2021 to the present date. While we have upgraded our listing, historically there has been limited daily volume of trading in our common stock, which has limited the overall and perceived liquidity of our common stock on that market.

A more active trading market for our shares may never develop or be sustained. Active trading markets generally result in lower price volatility and more efficient execution of buy and sell orders. The absence of an active trading market increases price volatility and reduces the liquidity of our common stock. As long as this condition continues, the sale of a significant number of shares of common stock at any particular time could be difficult to achieve at the market prices prevailing immediately before such shares are offered and, if an active market for our common stock does not develop, it may be difficult to sell shares without depressing the market price for the shares, or at all. In addition, in the event that an active trading market does not develop, the price of our common stock may not be a reliable indicator of the fair value of our common stock.

11

Furthermore, if our common stock ceases to be listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market, holders may find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of, our common stock, and the market value of our common stock would likely decline.

You may experience dilution of your ownership interest because of the future issuance of additional shares of our common stock and our preferred stock.

In the future, we may issue our authorized but previously unissued equity securities, resulting in the dilution of the ownership interests of our present stockholders. We are currently authorized to issue an aggregate of 270,000,000 shares of capital stock consisting of 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.00001 per share and 250,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share.

We may also issue additional shares of our common stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for common stock in connection with hiring or retaining employees or consultants, future acquisitions, future sales of our securities for capital raising purposes, or for other business purposes. The future issuance of any such additional shares of our common stock or other securities may create downward pressure on the trading price of our common stock. There can be no assurance that we will not be required to issue additional shares, warrants or other convertible securities in the future in conjunction with hiring or retaining employees or consultants, future acquisitions, future sales of our securities for capital raising purposes or for other business purposes, including at a price (or exercise prices) below the price at which shares of our common stock are trading.

The concentration of our capital stock ownership with insiders could limit your ability to influence the outcome of key transactions, including a change of control.

Our directors, executive officers and founding shareholders, in the aggregate, beneficially own approximately 23.4% of the outstanding shares of our common stock, based on the number of shares outstanding as of April 26, 2023. These stockholders are able to influence or control matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors and the approval of mergers, acquisitions or other extraordinary transactions. They may have interests that differ from yours and may vote in a manner that is adverse to your interests. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of deterring, delaying or preventing a change of control of our company, could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their common stock as part of a sale of our company and might ultimately affect the market price of our common stock.

If and when a larger trading market for our common stock develops, the market price of our common stock is still likely to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations, and you may be unable to resell your shares at or above the price at which you acquired them.

The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors that are beyond our control, including, but not limited to:

variations in our revenue and operating expenses;
market conditions in our industry and the economy as a whole;
actual or expected changes in our growth rates or our competitors’ growth rates;
announcements of innovations or new products or services by us or our competitors;
announcements by the government relating to regulations that govern our industry;
sales of our common stock or other securities by us or in the open market; and
changes in the market valuations of other comparable companies.

12

In addition, if the market for food industry stocks or the stock market in general experiences loss of investor confidence, the trading price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, financial condition or operating results. The trading price of our shares might also decline in reaction to events that affect other companies in our industry, even if these events do not directly affect us. Each of these factors, among others, could harm the value of your investment in our common stock. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted against companies. Such litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and diversion of management’s attention and resources, which could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

We do not expect to pay dividends.

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends or distributions on our common stock. We currently intend to retain our future earnings, if any, to support operations and to finance expansion and therefore we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will be made at the discretion of the board of directors, and will depend upon, among other things, the results of our operations, cash flows and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and other factors as the board of directors considers relevant. There is no assurance that future dividends will be paid, and, if dividends are paid, there is no assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend. If the Company does not pay dividends, the Company’s common stock may be less valuable because a return on an investor’s investment will only occur if the Company’s stock price appreciates.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about us, our business or our market, or if they change their recommendations regarding our stock adversely, our stock price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our common stock will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. If any of the analysts who may cover us change their recommendation regarding our stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, our stock price would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease coverage of our company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.
