1.    Business Organization and Nature of Operations

Muscle Maker, Inc. (“MMI”), a Nevada corporation was incorporated in Nevada on October 25, 2019. MMI was a wholly owned subsidiary of Muscle Maker, Inc (“MMI-Cal”), a California corporation incorporated on December 8, 2014, but the two merged on November 13, 2019, with MMI as the surviving entity. MMI wholly owns Muscle Maker Development, LLC (“MMD”), Muscle Maker Corp, LLC (“MMC”) and Muscle Maker USA, Inc (“Muscle USA”). MMD was formed on July 18, 2017, in the State of Nevada for the purpose of running our existing franchise operations and continuing to franchise the Muscle Maker Grill name and business system to qualified franchisees. MMC was formed on July 18, 2017, in the State of Nevada for the purpose of developing new corporate stores and operating new and existing corporate stores of MMI. Muscle USA was formed on March 14, 2019, in the State of Texas for the purpose of opening additional new corporate stores. Muscle Maker Development International LLC, a directly wholly owned subsidiary of MMI, which was formed in Nevada on November 13, 2020, to franchise the Muscle Maker Grill® name, trademarks and business system to qualified franchisees internationally. On March 25, 2021, MMI acquired the assets and trademarks of SuperFit Foods™, a subscription based fresh-prepared meal prep business located in Jacksonville, Florida. On May 14, 2021, MMI acquired the assets and trademarks of PKM Stamford, LLC, Poke Co., LLC, LB Holdings LLC, TNB Holdings, LLC, Poke Co Holdings LLC, GLL Enterprises, LLC, and TNB Holdings II, LLC, each a Connecticut limited liability company, an operator and franchisor of a fast casual restaurant chain concept, collectively known as “Pokémoto®.” On October 19, 2022, MMI formed Sadot LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of MMI, ("Sadot Agri-Foods"), for the purpose of shipping and trading agri-commodities on a global basis.

With the formation of Sadot Agri-Foods in late 2022, MMI has evolved from a U.S.-centric restaurant business into a global, food-focused organization. As of June 30, 2023, MMI consisted of two distinct operating units:

1.SADOT LLC: MMI’s largest operating unit is a global agri-commodities company engaged in trading and shipping of food and feed (e.g., soybean meal, wheat, corn, etc.) via dry bulk cargo ships to/from markets such as Brazil, Canada, China, India, Japan, Malaysia, Philippines, Poland, Romania, Ukraine and Vietnam. Sadot Agri-Foods competes with the ABCD commodity companies (ADM, Bunge, Cargill, Louis-Dreyfus) as well as many regional organizations. Sadot Agri-Foods seeks to diversify over time into a sustainable and forward-looking global agri-foods company.

2.MMI RESTAURANT GROUP: This is MMI’s legacy business with two fast casual restaurant concepts, Pokémoto Hawaiian Poké® and Muscle Maker Grill®, plus a fresh-prep meal service, SuperFit Foods™, with 34 points of distribution plus in-home and national delivery. As of June 30, 2023, the MMI Restaurant Group included 19 company-owned restaurants, including the SuperFit Foods™ kitchen, and 29 franchise restaurants. The MMI Restaurant Group seeks to develop Pokémoto® into a national restaurant brand through franchising.

MMI and its subsidiaries are hereinafter referred to as the “Company”.

On May 19, 2023, the Company has expanded its Sadot Agri-Foods subsidiary within the agri-commodity sourcing and trading operations into North, Central and South America, further diversifying the Company’s geographic reach beyond its existing operations in Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa. The expansion was facilitated by a 5 year consulting agreement signed on June 14, 2023, with a fixed cost of 0.5 million per year and potential profit sharing calculated on a quarterly basis, between Sadot Agri-Foods’ operations and newly-formed Buenaventura Trading LLC (“Buenaventura”) based in Miami FL. Buenaventura’s team brings a wealth of experience and exposure to new trade routes throughout the Americas by adding multiple sourcing and trading consultants to Sadot Agri-Foods with backgrounds from several of the largest international food supply chain organizations.

In order to support the expansion into the Americas and our agreement with Buenaventura, Sadot LLC has formed a new subsidiary, Sadot Latam LLC. This agreement marks a significant milestone for Sadot Agri-Foods as it provides access to new trade routes originating in North America to markets in Central and South America. The planned Americas trade routes are intended to generate accretive value for the Company by tapping into the thriving market demand for agricultural products across Central and South America. This planned expansion is expected to further enhance Sadot Agri-Foods’ position as an emerging entity in the global commodity trading industry.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Liquidity

Our primary source of liquidity is cash on hand. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had a cash balance, a working capital surplus and an accumulated deficit of $5.1 million, $7.7 million, and $80.2 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred a Pre-tax net income of $0.2 million and a Pre-tax net loss of $0.9 million, respectively. The Company had Net cash used in operations of $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The Company believes that our existing cash on hand and future cash flows from our commodity trading and franchise operations, will be sufficient to fund our operations, anticipated capital expenditures and repayment obligations over the next 12 months.

2.    Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company as of June 30, 2023, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. It is suggested that these Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2022, has been derived from the Company’s audited Financial Statements.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries and majority-owned subsidiary. Any intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period balances have been reclassified in order to conform to current period presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on the previously reported results of operations or loss per share.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.

Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Significant estimates include:

•the assessment of recoverability of long-lived assets, including property and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets;

•the estimated useful lives of intangible and depreciable assets;

•estimates and assumptions used to value warrants and options;

•the recognition of revenue; and

•the recognition, measurement and valuation of current and deferred income taxes.

10

Muscle Maker, Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Estimates and assumptions are periodically reviewed, and the effects of any material revisions are reflected in the financial statements in the period that they are determined to be necessary. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly-liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Inventory

Inventory, which are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, consist primarily of commodity trade shipments in-transit, perishable food items and supplies. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method.

Deposit on Farmland

Deposit on farmland consists of funds paid as a deposit with the intent to acquire farmland in Africa by our Sadot Agri-Foods subsidiary. As of June 30, 2023, the Company recorded a deposit of $8.8 million and $4.9 million as of December 31, 2022. The Company has entered into a letter of intent with a deposit to purchase developed farmland. The Company is still in final negotiations, awaiting government approval to finalize the agreement.

On May 16, 2023, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary, Sadot Agri-Foods, entered into a Purchase of Right and Variation Agreement (the “Variation Agreement”) with Zamproagro Limited, a Liberian corporation (“ZPG”) and Cropit Farming Limited, a Zambian corporation (“Cropit”) pursuant to which ZPG assigned all of its rights, liabilities and obligations of the Put and Call Option Agreement Over Land entered between ZPG and Cropit dated December 29, 2022 (the “Put Land Agreement”) to Sadot Agri-Foods, which provided ZPG with a one year call option to acquire 70% of 4,942 acres (2000 hectares) of producing agricultural land along with buildings and related assets located within the Mkushi Farm Block of Zambia’s Region II agricultural zone (the “Farm”) for a purchase price of approximately $8.5 million USD. The Put Land Agreement further provides that Cropit will continue to retain 30% of the Farm and that following closing, Cropit and the purchaser will form a special purpose vehicle in which both parties will contribute their ownership interest in the Farm to the special purpose vehicle for their respective percentage interest.

On May 16, 2023, Sadot Agri-Foods and Cropit entered into Joint Venture Shareholders Agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed to form a new entity in Zambia to serve as a joint venture with respect to the farming of the Farm. The joint venture is expected to be named Sadot Enterprises Limited (“Sadot Zambia”) with Sadot Agri-Foods holding 70% of the equity and Cropit holding 30% of the equity. Following its formation, Sadot Zambia will hold 100% of the Farm. Sadot Agri-Foods and Cropit will each have the right to appoint one director to the Board of Directors of Sadot Zambia. Further, upon formation, Sadot Agri-Foods contributed $3.5 million into escrow for the primary purpose of discharging a loan secured by the Farm held by ABSA Bank.

On May 16, 2023, Sadot Agri-Foods, Cropit and Chibesakunda & Co., as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) entered into an Escrow Agreement pursuant to which the Escrow Agent is holding all documentation required to allot Sadot Agri-Foods 70% of Sadot Zambia, documentation required to transfer the Farm to Sadot Zambia and USD $3.5 million contributed by Sadot Agri-Foods. At closing, the Escrow Agent will release the required funds to ABSA Bank and release the required documentation with respect to the allocation of Sadot Agri-Foods’ interest in Sadot Zambia and the transfer of the Farm. Closing is subject to obtaining clearance from the Zambian Competition and Consumer Protection Commission.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated Depreciation and amortization expenses. Major improvements are capitalized, and minor replacements, maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation and amortization expenses are calculated on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold

11

Muscle Maker, Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful life or the lease term of the related asset. The estimated useful lives are as follows:

Furniture and equipment	3 – 7 years
Leasehold improvements	1 – 11 years

Intangible Assets

The Company accounts for recorded intangible assets in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC’) 350 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other”. In accordance with ASC 350, the Company does not amortize intangible assets having indefinite useful lives. The Company determined that as of January 1, 2022, – the trademark – Muscle Maker had a finite life of 3 years and is amortizing the value over the new estimated life. The Company’s goodwill has an indefinite life and is not amortized, but are evaluated for impairment at least annually, or more often whenever changes in facts and circumstances may indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. ASC 350 requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment). Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units, assigning goodwill to reporting units, and determining the fair value. Significant judgment is required to estimate the fair value of reporting units which includes estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment.

The useful lives of the Company’s intangible assets are:

Franchisee agreements	13 years
Franchise license	10 years
Trademarks	3 – 5 years
Domain name, Customer list and Proprietary recipes	3 – 7 years
Non-compete agreements	2 – 3 years

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

When circumstances, such as adverse market conditions, indicate that the carrying value of a long-lived asset may be impaired, the Company performs an analysis to review the recoverability of the asset’s carrying value, which includes estimating the undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest charges) from the expected future operations of the asset. These estimates consider factors such as expected future operating income, operating trends and prospects, as well as the effects of demand, competition and other factors. If the analysis indicates that the carrying value is not recoverable from future cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value. Any impairment losses are recorded as operating expenses, which reduce net income.

Convertible Instruments

The Company evaluates its convertible instruments to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivative financial instruments to be separately accounted for in accordance with Topic 815 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

If the instrument is determined not to be a derivative liability, the Company then evaluates for the existence of a beneficial conversion feature by comparing the market price of the Company’s common stock as of the commitment date to the effective conversion price of the instrument.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company deemed the conversion feature was not required to be bifurcated and recorded as a derivative liability.

A party is considered to be related to the Company if the party directly, indirectly, or through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. A party which can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or if it has an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests is also a related party.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues consist of Commodity sales, Restaurant sales, Franchise royalties and fees, Franchise advertising fund contributions, and Other revenues. The Company recognizes revenues according to Topic 606 of FASB, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. Under the guidance, revenue is recognized in accordance with a five-step revenue model, as follows: (1) identifying the contract with the customer; (2) identifying the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determining the transaction price; (4) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (5) recognizing revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In applying this five-step model, we made significant judgments in identifying the promised goods or services in our contracts with franchisees that are distinct, and which represent separate performance obligations.

Commodity Sales

Commodity sale revenue is generated by our Sadot Agri-Foods subsidiary and is recognized when the commodity is delivered as evidenced by the bill of lading and the invoice is prepared and submitted to the customer. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded Commodity sales revenues of $157.6 million and $367.9 million, respectively. The Company did not have any Commodity sales revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Restaurant Sales

Retail store revenue at Company-operated restaurants is recognized when payment is tendered at the point of sale, net of sales tax, discounts and other sales-related taxes. The Company recorded retail store revenues of $2.5 million and $4.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $2.8 million and $5.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

The Company sells gift cards which do not have an expiration date, and it does not deduct dormancy fees from outstanding gift card balances. The Company recognizes revenues from gift cards as restaurant revenues once the Company performs its obligation to provide food and beverage to the customer simultaneously with the redemption of the gift card or through gift card breakage, as discussed in Other revenues below.

Franchise Royalties and Fees

Franchise revenues consists of royalties, initial franchise fees and rebates. Royalties are based on a percentage of franchisee net sales revenue. The Company recognizes the royalties as the underlying sales occur. The Company recorded revenue from royalties of $0.2 million and $0.3 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $0.1 million and $0.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, which is included in Franchise royalties and fees on the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company provides the franchisees with management expertise, training, pre-opening assistance, and restaurant operating assistance in exchange for the multi-unit development fees and initial franchise fees. The Company capitalizes these fees upon collection from the franchisee. These initial fees are then recognized as franchise fee revenue on a straight-line basis over the life of the related franchise agreements and any exercised renewal periods. Cash payments are due upon the execution of the related franchise agreement. The Company’s performance obligation with respect to franchise fee revenues consists of a license to utilize the Company’s brand for a specified period of time, which is satisfied equally over

13

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

the life of each franchise agreement. If a franchise location closes or a franchise agreement is terminated for any reason, the unrecognized revenue will be recognized in full at that time. The Company recorded revenue from initial franchise fees of $23.0 thousand and $0.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $15.3 thousand and $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, which is included in Franchise royalties and fees on the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company has supply agreements with certain food and beverage vendors. Pursuant to the terms of these agreements, rebates are provided to the Company based upon the dollar volume of purchases for all company-owned and franchised restaurants from these vendors. Rebates earned on purchases by franchise stores are recorded as revenue during the period in which the related food and beverage purchases are made. The Company recorded revenue from rebates of $30.0 thousand and $0.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $26.2 thousand and $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, which is included in Franchise royalties and fees on the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Rebates earned on purchases by Company-owned stores are recorded as a reduction of Food and beverage costs during the period in which the related food and beverage purchases are made.

Franchise Advertising Fund Contributions

Under the Company’s franchise agreements, the Company and its franchisees are required to contribute a certain percentage of revenues to a national advertising fund. The Company’s national advertising services are provided on a system-wide basis and therefore, not considered distinct performance obligations for individual franchisees. In accordance with Topic 606, the Company recognizes these sales-based advertising contributions from franchisees as franchise revenue when the underlying franchisee Company incurs the corresponding advertising expense. The Company records the related advertising expenses as incurred under Sales, general and administrative expenses. When an advertising contribution fund is over-spent at year-end, advertising expenses will be reported on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations in an amount that is greater than the revenue recorded for advertising contributions. Conversely, when an advertising contribution fund is under-spent at a period-end, the Company will accrue advertising costs up to advertising contributions recorded in revenue. The Company recorded contributions from franchisees of $20.0 thousand and $36.0 thousand, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $16.2 thousand and $34.3 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, which are included in Franchise advertising fund contributions on the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Other Revenues

Gift card breakage is recognized when the likelihood of a gift card being redeemed by the customer is remote and the Company determines there is not a legal obligation to remit the unredeemed gift card balance to the relevant jurisdiction. The determination of the gift card breakage rate is based upon the Company’s specific historical redemption patterns. Gift card liability is recorded in other current liabilities on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets The Company had Other revenues of $13.0 thousand and $13.0 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue primarily includes initial franchise fees received by the Company, which are being amortized over the life of the Company’s franchise agreements. Deferred revenue is recognized in income over the life of the franchise agreements. If a franchise location closes or a franchise agreement is terminated for any reason, the remaining deferred revenue will be recognized in full at that time.

Stock-Based Consulting Expense

Stock-based consulting expenses are for consulting fees due to Aggia related to ongoing Sadot Agri-Foods operations and expansion of the global agri-commodities business. Based on the initial Services Agreement with Aggia LLC FZ, a Company formed under the laws of United Arab Emirates (“Aggia”), the consulting fees were calculated at approximately 80.0% of the Net Income generated by the Sadot Agri-Foods business segment through March 31, 2023. As of April 1, 2023 the consulting agreement was amended to calculate consulting fees on 40.0% of the Net income generated by the Sadot Agri-Foods business segment. See Note 15 – Commitments and contingencies for further details. For the three and

six months ended June 30, 2023, $1.1 million and $4.4 million, respectively, are recorded as Stock-based consulting expense in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Advertising

Advertising costs are charged to expense as incurred. Advertising costs of $32.0 thousand and $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $0.8 thousand and $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, are included in Sales, general and administrative expenses. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, $76.0 thousand, $0.1 million, $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, are included in Other restaurant operating expenses in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Net Income / Loss per Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus any potentially dilutive common shares, resulting from the exercise of warrants, options or the conversion of convertible notes payable, calculated using the treasury stock method.

The following securities are excluded from the calculation of weighted average diluted common shares at June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:

	June 30,
	2023	2022

Purchases from the Company’s three largest commodity suppliers totaled 96% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and Purchases from the Company’s four largest commodity suppliers totaled 92% of the Company’s

15

Muscle Maker, Inc.

purchases for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Purchases from the Company’s largest supplier totaled 19% and 30% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the guidance of the FASB Accounting ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”).

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable.

Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The carrying amounts of accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying amounts of our short–term credit obligations approximate fair value because the effective yields on these obligations, which include contractual interest rates, taken together with other features such as concurrent issuance of common stock and warrants, are comparable to rates of returns for instruments of similar credit risk.

See Note 17 – Equity for details related to accrued compensation liability being fair valued using Level 1 inputs.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and net operating loss and credit carryforwards using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to impact taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.

ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.

Tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return are recorded in the Company’s financial statements. A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is only recognized if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. Uncertain tax positions have had no impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company does not expect any significant changes in its unrecognized tax benefits within years of the reporting date.

The Company’s policy is to classify assessments, if any, for tax related interest as interest expense and penalties as Sales, general and administrative expenses in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award. For employees and directors, the fair value of the award is measured on the grant date and for non-employees, the fair value of the award is generally recorded on the grant date and re-measured on financial reporting dates

16

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

and vesting dates until the service period is complete. The fair value amount of the award is then recognized over the period services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires companies to recognize lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use leased assets on the Balance Sheets and to disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Qualitative and quantitative disclosures will be enhanced to better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted.

Additionally, in 2018 and 2019, the FASB issued the following Topic 842–related ASUs:

•ASU 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842, which clarifies the applicability of Topic 842 to land easements and provides an optional transition practical expedient for existing land easements;

•ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases, which makes certain technical corrections to Topic 842;

•ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, which allows companies to adopt Topic 842 without revising comparative period reporting or disclosures and provides an optional practical expedient to lessors to not separate lease and non-lease components of a contract if certain criteria are met; and

•ASU 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements, which provides guidance for certain lessors on determining the fair value of an underlying asset in a lease and on the cash flow statement presentation of lease payments received; ASU No. 2019-01 also clarifies disclosures required in interim periods after adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 in the year of adoption.

The Company adopted Topic 842 as of January 1, 2022 and recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated deficit of $15.0 thousand as of the adoption date, and recognized an additional $7.8 thousand during the second quarter of 2022, based on updated information on two of our leases, for an aggregate cumulative-effect adjustment to accumulated deficit of $22.8 thousand. See Note 11 – Leases for further details.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08 Business Combinations (“Topic 805”): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. The ASU requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, as if it had originated the contracts. Under the current business combinations guidance, such assets and liabilities were recognized by the acquirer at fair value on the acquisition date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as amended subsequently by ASUs 2018-19, 2019-04, 2019-05, 2019-10, 2019-11 and 2020-03. The guidance in the ASUs requires that credit losses be reported using an expected losses model rather than the incurred losses model that is currently used. The standard also establishes additional disclosures related to credit risks. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2023 did not have a material impact on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated events that have occurred after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. Based upon the evaluation and transactions, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the Financial Statements, except as disclosed in Note 19 – Subsequent events.

The Company has filing obligations in what it considers its U.S. major tax jurisdictions as follows: Nevada, California, Connecticut, Florida, New Jersey, Texas, Virginia, New York State and New York City. The earliest year that the Company is subject to examination is the year ended December 31, 2015.

The Company has approximately $63.6 million of Federal and State Net operating loss (“NOLs”) available to offset future taxable income. The net operating loss carryforwards generated prior to 2018, if not utilized, will expire from 2035 to 2037 for federal and state purposes.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not recognize the future tax benefit of the loss carryforwards and has recognized a valuation allowance of $11.2 million and $11.0 million, respectively. The valuation allowance increased by approximately $0.2 million.

Utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards and credits may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by Section 382 and Section 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and similar state provisions. Generally, in addition to certain entity reorganizations, the limitation applies when one or more “5 percent stockholders” increase their ownership, in the aggregate, by more than 50 percentage points over a 36-month time period testing period or beginning the day after the most recent ownership change, if shorter.

With the creation of our Sadot Agri-Foods subsidiary in late 2022, we began to transform from a U.S.-centric restaurant business into a global, food-focused organization with two distinct segments. As a result, we have reevaluated and changed our operating segments early in 2023. Previously we split out Muscle Maker Grill, Pokemoto, and SuperFit Foods as their own restaurant operating segments. Since Sadot Agri-Foods' operations is primarily in commodities trading and is such a large portion of the Company’s business, the Company segregated it into its own segment and combined all restaurant operations into a segment.

On June 22, 2023, the Company created the new subsidiary, Sadot Latam LLC, which has expanded its agri-commodity sourcing and trading operations into North, Central and South America, further diversifying the Company’s geographic reach beyond its existing operations in Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa. This new line of business is included within the Sadot Agri-Foods segment in the tables above.

The Company will continue to evaluate its operating segments and update as necessary.

OVERVIEW

Sadot Group Inc. (f/k/a Muscle Maker, Inc.) ("MMI") is our parent company and is headquartered in Ft. Worth, Texas. In late 2022, MMI began a transformation from a U.S.-centric restaurant business into a global, food-focused organization with two distinct business units. Effective July 27, 2023, MMI changed its name to Sadot Group Inc.

1.Sadot LLC (Sadot Agri-Foods") is an international agri-commodities company engaged in trading and shipping of food and feed (e.g., soybean meal, wheat and corn) via dry bulk cargo ships to/from markets such as Argentina, Brazil, Canada, China, Egypt, Guinea, India, Indonesia, Japan, Kenya Malaysia, Philippines, Poland, Romania, Sri Lanka, Ukraine and Vietnam. Sadot Agri-Foods competes with the ABCD commodity companies (ADM, Bunge, Cargill, Louis-Dreyfus) as well as many regional organizations. Sadot Agri-Foods was formed as part of the Company’s diversification strategy to own and operate, through its subsidiaries, the business lines throughout the food value chain. Sadot Agri-Foods is Sadot     Group's largest operating unit.

2.Sadot Restaurant Group has three unique “healthier for you” concepts, including two fast casual restaurant concepts, Pokémoto and Muscle Maker Grill, plus one subscription-based fresh prep meal concept, SuperFit Foods. Our Company was founded on the belief of taking every-day menu options and converting them into “healthier for you” menu choices. Consumers are demanding healthier choices, customization, flavor and convenience. Each of our three concepts offers different menus that are tailored to specific consumer segments. We believe our concepts deliver highly differentiated customer experiences.

The Company has expanded its Sadot Agri-Foods subsidiary within the agri-commodity sourcing and trading operations into North, Central and South America, further diversifying the Company’s geographic reach beyond its existing operations in Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Africa. The expansion was facilitated by a strategic agreement between Sadot Agri-

44

Foods’ agri-food operations and newly-formed Buenaventura Trading LLC (“Buenaventura”) based in Miami FL. Buenaventura’s team brings a wealth of experience and exposure to new trade routes throughout the Americas by adding multiple sourcing and trading consultants to Sadot Agri-Foods with backgrounds from several of the largest international food supply chain organizations.

In order to support the expansion into the Americas and our agreement with Buenaventura, Sadot LLC has formed a new subsidiary, Sadot Latam LLC. This agreement marks a significant milestone for Sadot Agri-Foods as it provides access to new trade routes originating in North America to markets in Central and South America. The planned Americas trade routes are intended to generate accretive value for the Company by tapping into the thriving market demand for agricultural products across Central and South America. This planned expansion is expected to further enhance Sadot Agri-Foods’ position as an emerging entity in the global commodity trading industry.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had a cash balance, a working capital surplus and an accumulated deficit of $5.1 million, $7.7 million and $80.2 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred a Pre-tax net income / loss of $0.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively. Net cash used in operations of $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The Company believes that our existing cash on hand and future cash flows from our commodity trades and franchise operations, will be sufficient to fund our operations, anticipated capital expenditures and repayment obligations over the next 12 months.

Restaurant division	1.7	%	100.0	%	1.4	%	100.0	%

Our key business and financial metrics are explained in detail below.

Revenues

Our revenues are derived from four primary sources: Physical Commodity sales, Company restaurant sales, Franchise revenues and vendor rebates from Franchisees. Franchise revenues are comprised of Franchise royalty revenues collected based on 2% to 6% of franchisee net sales and other franchise revenues which include initial and renewal franchisee fees. Vendor rebates are received based on volume purchases or services from franchise owned locations. In addition, we have Other revenues which consists of gift card breakage, which is recognized when we determine that there is no further legal obligation to remit the unredeemed gift card balance.

46

Commodity Operating Expenses

Commodity Cost

Commodity costs include the direct cost associated with purchasing the physical food commodities. The cost includes the cost of the inventory, insurance, shipping and other cost associated with transporting the physical food commodity. The components of Commodity cost are variable in nature, change with sales volume, logistics and are subject to fluctuations in Commodity costs.

Labor

Commodity labor cost consists of consulting fees paid for traders, logistics, and operations personnel to perform the purchases and sale of physical food commodities. Similar to other cost items, we expect total Commodity labor costs to increase as our Commodity sales revenues grows.

Other Commodity Operating Expenses

Other commodity operating expenses consist of food commodity purchase and sales expenses not inclusive of Commodity cost and Labor. These expenses are generally travel and office expenses.

Restaurant Operating Expenses

Food and Beverage Costs

Food and beverage costs include the direct costs associated with food, beverage and packaging of our menu items at Company-operated restaurants partially offset by vendor rebates from Company-owned stores. The components of food, beverages and supplies are variable in nature, change with sales volume, are affected by menu mix and are subject to fluctuations in Commodity costs.

Labor

Restaurant labor costs, consists of Company-operated restaurant-level management and hourly labor costs, including salaries, wages, payroll taxes, workers’ compensation expense, benefits and bonuses paid to our Company-operated restaurant-level team members. Like other cost items, we expect total restaurant labor costs at our Company-operated restaurants to increase due to inflation and as our Company restaurant revenues grow. Factors that influence labor costs include minimum wage and employer payroll tax legislation, mandated health care costs and operational productivity established by the management team.

Rent

Restaurant rent consist of Company-operated restaurant-level rental or lease payments applicable to executed rental or lease agreements. In many cases these rental payments may include payments for common area maintenance as well as property tax assessments. Our rent strategy in some locations consists of a variable rent structure calculated on net sales of the restaurant. While this can have a negative effect on higher volume locations where we cannot leverage a fixed rent, it provides downside protection for lower volume locations.

Other Restaurant Operating Expenses

Other restaurant operating expenses consist of Company-operated restaurant-level ancillary expenses not inclusive of Food and beverage, Labor and Rent expense. These expenses are generally marketing, advertising, merchant and bank fees, utilities, leasehold and equipment repairs, insurance and maintenance. A portion of these costs are associated with third party delivery services such as Uber Eats, Grub Hub, DoorDash and others. The fees associated with these third-party delivery services can range up to 25% of the total order being delivered. Management believes delivery is a critical component of our business model and industry trends will continue to push consumers towards delivery. We have adjusted our cost structure to reflect different pricing models, portion sizes, menu offerings and other considerations to potentially partially offset these rising costs of delivery.

47

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses

Depreciation and amortization expenses primarily consist of the depreciation of property and equipment and amortization of intangible assets.

Franchise Advertising Expenses

Franchise advertising expenses are recognized sales-based advertising contributions from franchisees as franchise revenue when the underlying franchisee incurs the corresponding advertising expense. The Company records the related advertising expenses as incurred under Sales, general and administrative expenses.

Pre-Opening Expenses

Pre-opening expenses primarily consist of expenses associated with opening a Company-operated location and expenses related to Company-operated locations prior to the location opening.

Post-Closing Expenses

Post-closing expenses primarily consist of expenses associated with closing a Company-operated location and expenses related to Company-operated locations after the location has closed.

Stock-based Consulting Expenses

Stock-based consulting expenses are related to consulting fees due to Aggia for Sadot Agri-Foods operations. Based on the servicing agreement with Aggia, the consulting fees are calculated at approximately 40.0% of the Net income generated by the Sadot Agri-Foods business segment. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, $1.1 million and $4.4 million respectively, are recorded as Stock-based consulting expense in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and a corresponding liability is recorded as Accrued stock-based consulting expense in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. This expense was paid in stock.

Sales, General and Administrative Expenses

Sales, general and administrative expenses include expenses associated with corporate and administrative functions that support our operations, including wages, benefits, travel expense, stock-based compensation expense, legal and professional fees, training, investor relations and other corporate costs. We incur incremental Sales, general and administrative expenses as a result of being a publicly listed company on the NASDAQ capital market. A certain portion of these expenses are related to the preparation of an initial stock offering and subsequent capital raises and should be considered one-time expenses.

Other (Expense) / Income

Other (expense) / income consists of amortization of debt discounts on the convertible notes, interest expense related to notes payable, Change in fair value of accrued compensation and gains on debt extinguishments in connection with the Paycheck Protection Program, (“PPP”) loan forgiveness.

Income Taxes

Income taxes represent federal, state and local current and deferred income tax expenses.

Other (Expense) / Income

Other (expense) / income consists of amortization of debt discounts on the convertible notes, interest expense related to notes payable, Change in fair value of accrued compensation and gains on debt extinguishments in connection with the Paycheck Protection Program, (“PPP”) loan forgiveness.

Non-GAAP Measures

48

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP measures. We define EBITDA as Net loss, adjusted for depreciation, amortization, interest income / (expense), and income taxes. We define Adjusted EBITDA as Net loss, adjusted for depreciation, amortization, net interest (income) expense, income taxes, impairment expenses, stock-based consulting expense, derived from amounts presented in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and the associated Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, (collectively, the “Non-GAAP Measures”) are useful metrics for investors to understand and evaluate our operating results and ongoing profitability because they permit investors to evaluate our recurring profitability from our ongoing operating activities.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, have certain limitations, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations as reported under U.S. GAAP. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of any of the Non-GAAP Measures may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other issuers, because some issuers calculate certain of the Non-GAAP Measures differently or not at all, limiting their usefulness as direct comparative measures.

Reconciliations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Other Non-GAAP Measures

The following table presents a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure, Net loss, and the calculations of the Net loss Margin and Adjusted EBITDA Margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

Our revenues totaled $160.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The $157.4 million increase is primarily attributed to an increase in Commodity sales as a direct result of the formation of Sadot Agri-Foods and its added revenue.

We generated Commodity sales of $157.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. We did not have any Commodity sales for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This represented an increase of $157.6 million, which is attributable to Sadot Agri-Foods sales generated from physical food related commodities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

We measure our liquidity in a number of ways, including the following:

	As of
	June 30, 2023	December 31, 2022
	$’000	$’000
Cash	5,090	9,898
Working capital surplus	7,716	4,033
Notes payable	4,412	981

Availability of Additional Funds

Although we have a working capital surplus of $7.7 million, we presently have an accumulated deficit of $80.2 million, as of December 31, 2022, and we utilized $4.2 million of cash in operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023. We believe that our existing cash on hand and future cash flows from our franchise operations and commodity trading operations, will be sufficient to fund our operations, anticipated capital expenditures and repayment obligations over the next 12 months.

In the event we are required to obtain additional financing, either through borrowings, private placements, public offerings, or some type of business combination, such as a merger, or buyout, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in such pursuits. We may be unable to acquire the additional funding necessary to continue operating. Accordingly, if we are unable to generate adequate cash from operations, and if we are unable to find sources of funding, it may be necessary for us to sell one or more lines of business or all or a portion of our assets, enter into a business combination or reduce or eliminate operations. These possibilities, to the extent available, may be on terms that result in significant dilution to our shareholders or that result in our shareholders losing all of their investment in our Company.

If we need to raise additional capital, we do not know what the terms of any such capital raising would be. In addition, any future sale of our equity securities could dilute the ownership and control of your shares and could be at prices substantially below prices at which our shares currently trade. We may seek to increase our cash reserves through the sale of additional equity or debt securities. The sale of convertible debt securities or additional equity securities could result in additional and potentially substantial dilution to our shareholders. The occurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could result in operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations and liquidity. In addition, our ability to obtain additional capital on acceptable terms is subject to a variety of uncertainties. We cannot assure you that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any failure to raise additional funds on favorable terms could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition.

Sources and Uses of Cash for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we used Net cash of $4.2 million compared to $1.9 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, in operations. Our Net cash used for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was primarily attributable to our Net loss of $0.9 million, adjusted for net non-cash income in the aggregate amount of $5.0 million offset by $8.4 million of Net cash provided by changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities. Our Net cash used for the six months ended June 30, 2022, was primarily attributable to our Net loss of $3.7 million, adjusted for net non-cash income in the aggregate amount of $1.1 million, partially offset by $0.6 million of Net cash used in changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, Net cash used in investing activities was $4.0 million, of which $0.2 million was used to purchase Property and equipment, $0.1 million was used on the Disposal of property and equipment and $3.9 million was used for a deposit with the intent to purchase farmland. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, Net cash used in investing activities was $0.3 million, of which $0.3 million was used to purchase Property and equipment.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, Net cash provided by financing activities was $3.4 million, consisting of repayments of various other notes payable of $0.1 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, Net cash used in financing activities was $0.1 million, partially offset by repayments of various other notes payable of $0.1 million.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires companies to recognize lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use leased assets on the Balance Sheets and to disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Qualitative and quantitative disclosures will be enhanced to better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted.

Additionally, in 2018 and 2019, the FASB issued the following Topic 842–related ASUs:

ASU 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842, which clarifies the applicability of Topic 842 to land easements and provides an optional transition practical expedient for existing land easements;

ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases, which makes certain technical corrections to Topic 842;

ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, which allows companies to adopt Topic 842 without revising comparative period reporting or disclosures and provides an optional practical expedient to lessors to not separate lease and non-lease components of a contract if certain criteria are met; and

ASU 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements, which provides guidance for certain lessors on determining the fair value of an underlying asset in a lease and on the cash flow statement presentation of lease payments received; ASU No. 2019-01 also clarifies disclosures required in interim periods after adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 in the year of adoption.

The Company adopted Topic 842 as of January 1, 2022 and recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of $15.0 thousand as of the adoption date, and recognized an additional $7.8 thousand during the second quarter of 2022, based on updated information on two of our leases, for an aggregate cumulative-effect adjustment to accumulated deficit of $22.8 thousand.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08 Business Combinations (“Topic 805”): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. The ASU requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, as if it had originated the contracts. Under the current business combinations guidance, such assets and liabilities were recognized by the acquirer at fair value on the acquisition date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as amended subsequently by ASUs 2018-19, 2019-04, 2019-05, 2019-10, 2019-11 and 2020-03. The guidance in the ASUs requires that credit losses be reported using an expected losses model rather than the incurred losses model that is currently used. The standard also establishes additional disclosures related to credit risks. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2023 did not have a material impact on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
