Basis of Presentation - The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with US 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, 2024, and for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023 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, 2023. The Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2023, has been derived from the Company’s audited Financial Statements.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Significant Accounting Policies – The significant accounting policies used in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements were applied on a basis consistent with those reflected in our consolidated financial statements that are included in the annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023 that was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 30, 2024.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgment to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Significant accounting policy elections, estimates and assumptions include, among others, allowance for credit losses, valuation assumptions of goodwill and intangible assets, useful lives of long-lived assets, and measurement of income tax assets. Given the uncertainty of the global economic environment, our estimates could be significantly different than future performance. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Historically, the aggregate differences, if any, between our estimates and actual amounts in any year have not had a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Principles of Consolidation – The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include all entities controlled by the Company. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.
Control exists when the Company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive the benefits from its activities that could potentially be significant to the entity. In assessing control, potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered. The accounts of subsidiaries are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
Share-Based Compensation - Share-based awards principally comprise of stock options and cash-settled stock options, referred to as “phantom options”. Share-based awards are generally issued to certain senior management personnel. Share-based compensation cost (other than phantom options) is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period, on a straight-line basis. Our phantom options are accounted for as liability awards and are re-measured at fair value each reporting period with compensation expense being recognized over the requisite service period.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the grant date fair value of its stock options and phantom options, respectively, as well as the fair value at each reporting period for liability classified awards. This model requires the Company to estimate the expected volatility and the expected term of the stock options, which are highly complex and subjective variables. The Company uses an expected volatility of its stock price during the expected life of the options that is based on the historical performance of the Company’s stock price as well as including an estimate using similar companies. The expected term is computed using the simplified method as the Company’s best estimate given its lack of actual exercise history. The Company has selected a risk-free rate based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury securities with a maturity equivalent to the expected exercise term of the stock option. The inputs to the valuation of phantom options are observable in the market, and as such are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company accounts for forfeitures of share-based awards as the occur.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions - The Company’s functional currency is the Moroccan dirham (“MAD”), and its presentation currency is the United States Dollar (“USD”). The functional currency is translated into U.S. dollars for balance sheet accounts using currency exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date, and for revenue and expense accounts using a weighted-average exchange rate during the fiscal year. The transactions in foreign currency (that is a different currency than the functional currency of the entity) are converted at the exchange rate prevailing to the date of the transaction. The assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are evaluated in the current period on the date of the closing or at the opening rate, when applicable. The translation adjustments are deferred as a separate component of equity in “Accumulated other comprehensive income”. Gains or losses resulting from transactions denominated in foreign currencies and intercompany debt that is not of a long-term investment nature are included in (gain) loss on foreign currency exchange in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Credit Risk – Financial instruments potentially subject to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable. At times during the periods presented, the Company had funds in excess of Deposit Insurance programs in Morocco, on deposit at various financial institutions. Management believes the Company is not exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial position of the depository institutions in which those deposits are held.
Foreign currency forward contracts –The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the normal course of its business, which the Company at times manages through the use of foreign currency forward contracts. The Company has entered into foreign currency forward contracts and accounts for these instruments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” which establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at fair value. The Company’s foreign currency contracts are not designated as hedging instruments under ASC 815; accordingly, changes in the fair value are recorded in current period earnings. For more information, refer to Note 13 - Foreign currency forward contracts.
Fair Value Measurements – The Company follows the guidance in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period. The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities).
The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used to value the assets and liabilities:
| - | Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. |
| - | Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. |
| - | Level 3: Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. |
The Company’s financial instruments include cash equivalents, accounts receivable from customers, other receivables, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, all of which are typically short-term in nature. The Company believes that the carrying amounts of these financial instruments reasonably approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.
The Company measures the derivative liabilities or assets related to foreign currency forward contracts at fair value on a recurring basis. Refer to Note 13 – Foreign currency forward contracts.
The Company measures the contingent consideration liability at fair value on a recurring basis. Refer to Note 14 – Contingent Consideration Liability for further information.

Emerging Growth Company Status – the Company is an emerging growth company (“EGC”), as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, EGCs can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period. In providing this relief, the JOBS Act does not preclude the Company from adopting a new or revised accounting standard earlier than the time that such standard applies to private companies. The Company will continue to use this relief until the earlier of the date that it (a) is no longer an emerging growth company or (b) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act.
Reclassifications – Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
Liquidity and going concern – The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will continue its operations for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As of January 16, 2025, the Company’s management has assessed its ability to continue as a going concern and has concluded that it is able to do so for at least the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.
Management’s assessment is based on the following considerations:
| - | Cash and Liquidity: As of December 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $12,802, which management believes is sufficient to fund its planned operations and meet its obligations for the next twelve months. Management continues to actively manage cash flows, including monitoring receivables and payables, and has implemented cost control measures to conserve cash. |
| - | On January 15, 2025, the Company entered into a binding agreement for the sale of a wholly owned subsidiary to a third party for total consideration of $10.0 million. The Company expects that the proceeds from this transaction will be used to fund its operations, reduce liabilities, and support its ongoing strategic initiatives. |
| - | Management is also actively pursuing several potential sources of additional financing, including negotiations with investors and financial institutions, as well as exploring cost-reduction initiatives and the potential sale of other non-core assets, which management believes could be utilized if additional capital is needed to support operations beyond the next twelve months. |
Based on the above considerations, management believes that the Company has sufficient financial resources to meet its obligations as they come due at least the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.
3. RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 mainly requires more enhanced information about a reportable segment’s expenses. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is still evaluating the impact of this ASU on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and will adopt it for the year ended December 31, 2024.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures by requiring; (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and (2) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. It also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. For public business entities, the standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company is determining the impact of the ASU 2023-09 on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
Other than as described above, no accounting pronouncements issued or effective during the six months ended June 30, 2024 has had or is expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
4. LEASES
The Company has operating leases for real estate and vehicles. The Company has finance leases for equipment and construction land space. Leases are classified as finance leases because ownership of the underlying assets transfers at the end the lease term. Remaining lease terms for these leases range from less than one year to six years.
The Company does not record leases with a term of 12 months or less on the balance sheet.

13. FOREIGN CURRENCY FORWARD CONTRACTS
Our global operations require active participation in foreign exchange markets. From the beginning of 2023, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the risk arising from foreign exchange rate fluctuations.
We do not utilize hedge accounting and as such value open foreign currency forward contracts at fair value with the change in unrealized gain or loss recorded in “Change in fair value of derivatives and contingent consideration” on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.
FORAFRIC GLOBAL PLC AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(Continued)
The Company had 18 foreign currency forward contracts outstanding as of June 30, 2024, with a notional value of $15,200 and €17,500 ($18,800), respectively. All of these contracts will expire by December 31, 2024. These instruments are typically short term in duration and as such are presented within current liabilities.
Foreign currency forward contracts are marked-to-market based on the difference between the forward rate and the exchange rate as of the reporting period; thus, the Company measures the fair value of these contracts under a Level 2 input.
The foreign currency forward contract liabilities totaled $462 as of June 30, 2024. The foreign currency forward contract assets and liabilities totaled $430 and $337, respectively at December 31, 2023. These assets and liabilities are recorded within prepaid expenses and other current assets, and other liabilities, current, respectively on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company recorded a loss on foreign exchange forward contracts of $552 and $1,614 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively.
14. CONTINGENT CONSIDERATION LIABILITY
In accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company will pay to the Seller 20% of any cash proceeds received by Company before the five-year anniversary of the Closing resulting from the exercise of Company Warrants outstanding as of June 9, 2022.
The contingent consideration liability is included in “Contingent consideration liability” on the consolidated balance sheet. Changes in the fair value of the liability are included in “Change in fair value of derivatives and contingent consideration” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company utilized a probability weighted scenario-based model under level 3 to determine the fair value of the contingent consideration. Based on this valuation model, the Company determined the fair value of the contingent consideration to be $1,061 and $1,326 as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. The assumptions used in the analysis are inherently subjective; therefore, the ultimate amount of the liability may differ materially from the current estimate.
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the contingent consideration liability are measures of the estimated payouts over a five-year period based on internally generated financial projections on a probability-weighted basis and a discount rate which was in a range of 4.52% to 5.33% with a weighted average of 4.52% as of June 30, 2024.
The following table presents a summary of the changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability:

(Continued)
The Company’s effective tax rate was -16% and -8% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The effective tax rate was lower than the Moroccan statutory rate primarily due to unrecognized tax losses and the minimum contribution due to the Moroccan tax authorities levied on turnover and other specific revenue.
During the six months ended as of June 30, 2024, and the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company has $45,199 and $37,228, respectively, as cumulative net operating losses of which $26,475 and $23,546 that begin to expire within four years, respectively.
In assessing the realizability of these deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in those periods in which temporary differences become deductible and/or net operating loss carryforwards can be utilized. The Company considers the level of historical taxable income, scheduled reversal of temporary differences, tax planning strategies, and projected future taxable income in determining whether a valuation allowance is warranted.
As of each reporting date, we consider existing evidence, both positive and negative, that could impact our view with regard to future realization of deferred tax assets. We continue to believe it is more likely than not that the benefit for certain net operating loss carryforwards will not be realized. In recognition of this risk, we continue to provide a valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets in the amount of $5,993 and $5,172 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. These allowance amounts correspond mainly to the carryforward losses that are not indefinite.

The Earnout have been deemed financial instruments to be issued upon the occurrence of contingent earn out provisions. The Earnout Shares are accounted for under ASC Topic 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging”, pursuant to which the Earnout Shares are considered to be indexed to the Company’s own stock and therefore will be classified as equity instruments.
17. EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
In connection with the Business Combination, the Stockholders of the Company considered and approved the Forafric 2022 Long Term Employee Share Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) which provides for the grant of awards, consisting of nominal cost options or phantom options to employees, directors and consultants of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

As of June 30, 2024, the unrecognized compensation expense associated with the phantom options is $325 and it will be recognized over 18 months from the end of June 30, 2024.
The fair value of the phantom options at June 30, 2023 was estimated using the following assumptions:

Volatility | | | 53.00 | % |
Expected dividend yield | | | 0.00 | % |
Risk-free interest rate | | | 4.33 | % |
18. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the number of weighted average ordinary shares outstanding during the reporting period. The Company’s weighted average number of shares outstanding used in calculating earnings per share are 26,879,202 and 26,879,114 for the periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Because there was no activity to cause dilution in the weighted average ordinary shares, basic and diluted earnings per share are disclosed together in each of the reporting periods.
The computation of diluted loss per share excludes the effect of earnout and option shares and warrants to purchase the Company’s shares because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
19. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Since February 2022, the quantity of soft wheat available on the international market has decreased by 35% due to the ongoing war in Ukraine, causing the price of raw materials to increase. Despite this situation, we have not had any shortages on raw materials, and do not project to have any issuing fulfilling future orders. We have no firm and irrevocable commitments that will be affected by the war in Ukraine, and we will continue to assess the impact the war may have on our business.
The Company entered into a five-year supply agreement with Millcorp Geneva SA (“Millcorp”), pursuant to which the Company is obligated to obtain at least 80% of the Company’s annual requirements of common wheat, durum wheat, or any other cereal, from Millcorp. The agreement expired on March 31, 2023 and was subsequently amended to extend through March 2026. The purchases incurred were $53,994 and $97,641 for the periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
The Company has commitments with banks to finance its operating activities. The Company has provided collateral and mortgages to banks of $25,464 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

From time to time the Company is involved in litigation incidental to the conduct of its business. These matters may relate to employment and labor claims, patent and intellectual property claims, claims of alleged non-compliance with contract provisions and claims related to alleged violations of laws and regulations. When applicable, the Company records accruals for contingencies when it is probable that a liability will be incurred, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Defense costs are expensed as incurred and are included in professional fees. While the outcome of lawsuits and other proceedings against the Company cannot be predicted with certainty, in the opinion of management, individually or in the aggregate, no such lawsuits and other proceedings had or are expected to have a material effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements at June 30, 2024.
20. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company manages operations on a company-wide basis, thereby making determinations as to the allocation of resources in total rather than on a segment-level basis. The Company has designated reportable segments based on how management views its business. The Company does not segregate assets between segments for internal reporting. Therefore, asset-related information has not been presented. The reportable segments, as presented below, are consistent with the manner in which the Company reports its results to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”).
The principal products that comprise each segment are as follows:
Soft Wheat – The Soft Wheat segment includes the production and sale of soft wheat yielding flour that is used to make desserts and sauces.
Durum Wheat - The Durum Wheat segment includes the production and sale of hard wheat yielding flour that is used to make pasta.
Couscous and Pasta – The Couscous and Pasta segment includes the secondary processing of products including couscous and pasta sold to end customers.
The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on sales and operating income. Operating income is defined as gross profit less sales & marketing costs, direct selling, general, and administrative expenses, and other operating expenses. The amounts in the following tables are obtained from reports used by senior management and do not include income taxes. Other expenses not allocated include unallocated corporate expenses (other operating expenses).
