RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | B. RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS In connection with the re-audit of the financial statements of the Company, as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, which were previously audited by the Company’s prior independent registered public accounting firm, BF Borgers CPA PC, the Company identified certain accounting errors relating to compliance with U.S. GAAP in connection with the Company’s accounting of certain assets and liabilities as well as acquisition accounting. As a result of the re-audit, the Audit Committee, in consultation with the Company’s management, concluded that the Company’s previously issued unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto require restatement and should not be relied upon. The following include descriptions of the significant adjustments to the Company’s previously reported financial statements included in this quarterly report. 1. Business Acquisitions The Company incorrectly accounted for the Wildman Imprints former promotional products business division of Wildman Business Group, LLC, G.A.P. Promotions, LLC, Trend Promotional Marketing Corporation (d/b/a Trend Brand Solutions), Premier Business Services, and T R Miller Co., Inc. (“T R Miller”) acquisitions (“Acquisitions”) as asset acquisitions that would properly be accounted for as business combinations in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The Company improperly determined the fair value of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the fair value of contingent earn-out payments, which was part of the total consideration, in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. As a part of the restatement process, the Company performed a separate assessment of each acquisition in accordance with the relevant guidance of ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, and completed a purchase price allocation analysis, including the proper calculation of the fair value of the certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the fair value of contingent earn-out payments. To correct the error, the Company adjusted the final purchase price accounting for inventory, identifiable intangibles, goodwill and contingent earn-out liabilities, including associated mark-to-market adjustments subsequent to the acquisition dates. 2. Goodwill Impairment As a result of the incorrect accounting treatment of the Acquisitions, the Company omitted the recognition of goodwill and failed to perform an annual goodwill impairment analysis as of October 1, 2023 and 2022. As a part of the restatement process, the Company performed quantitative goodwill impairment testing in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other as of October 1, 2023 and October 1, 2022. The Company determined that the carrying value of its reporting unit was in excess of its fair value. To correct the error, the Company recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge during the fourth quarter of fiscal years 2022 and 2023. 3. Income Taxes The Company improperly calculated deferred tax asset and liability balances. The Company also established several improper methods of accounting for income taxes with respect to the Acquisitions, bad debt reserve, capitalized research, and inventory capitalization as well as other book to tax adjustments that needed to be corrected such as charitable contributions and stock option expense. As a part of the restatement process, the Company calculated the correct tax adjustments for the 2021 through 2023 tax years and the impact to the income tax provision and deferred tax asset/(liability) balances. To correct the error, the Company recorded journal entries to correct end of the year deferred tax asset/(liability) balances. With respect to improper methods of tax accounting, the Company recorded an uncertain tax position (“FIN 48”) reserve for each of these items and will correct the improper methods of tax accounting by filing an automatic method change in its 2024 U.S. federal income tax return, which will be filed in 2025. The Company generated tax losses in 2021 and 2022, these losses were able to offset the effects of the improper methods for both 2021 and 2022. In addition, the Company plans to amend its 2023 U.S. federal income tax return, which will include a statement explaining additional adjustments such as charitable contributions and stock option expense to its 2021 and 2022 net operating loss carryforward balances. All tax entries have been booked as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, to reflect the correct income tax provision and deferred tax asset/(liability) balances. The Company recorded a valuation allowance as well in 2022 as the Company was in a cumulative deficit at that time. 4. Related Party Presentation Certain amounts relating to the accounts receivable from related parties, previously reflected in Accounts Receivable, Net on the Company’s Balance Sheet, have been reclassified to Accounts Receivable – Related Parties. These reclassifications had no impact on the previously reported net earnings, cash flows or shareholders’ equity. 5. Accounts Receivable and Unearned Revenue Adjustment The Company incorrectly recorded certain amounts in Accounts Receivable for products that were shipped but not billed as of June 30, 2023, rather than reducing Unearned Revenue for the customer deposits that were received prior to June 30, 2023. As a part of the restatement process, the Company performed reconciliations of unbilled receivables and unearned revenue and adjusted overstated Accounts Receivable and Unearned Revenue balances. 6. Sales Adjustment The Company incorrectly recognized Sales relating to freight charges for certain orders. As a part of the restatement process, the Company conducted a thorough analysis of sales including freight charges. Multiple reviews were carried out to ensure all potential errors were addressed. To correct the error, the Company adjusted overstated freight revenue and corresponding freight expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. 7. Inventory Adjustment The Company failed to perform a proper full physical inventory count. As a part of the restatement process, the Company performed a physical inventory count and corresponding rollback analysis. The Company identified discrepancies between recorded and actual inventory levels. To correct the error, the Company adjusted its inventory records and reduced its reported inventory value as of June 30, 2023, to accurately reflect the findings. 8. Subsequent Measurement of Available-for-Sale Securities The Company incorrectly recorded unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sale securities that should be excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income (loss). As a part of the restatement process, the Company performed a separate analysis related to subsequent measurement of available-for-sale securities in accordance with the relevant guidance of ASC Topic 320, Investments – Debt Securities. To correct the error, the Company adjusted realized gain (loss) on investment and corresponding other comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. 9. Unearned Revenue and Sales Adjustment The Company failed to recognize certain amounts as Sales for the products that were included in Unearned Revenue but shipped as of June 30, 2023. In addition, the Company did not reduce the inventory balance for the products that were shipped as of June 30, 2023. As a part of the restatement process, the Company performed reconciliations of unearned revenue and adjusted overstated Unearned Revenue and Inventory balances for the products that were shipped as of June 30, 2023. * Represents revision for immaterial error correction.
