CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements convey our current expectations or forecasts of future events and are not guarantees of future performance. They are based on numerous assumptions that we believe are reasonable, but they are open to a wide range of uncertainties and business risks. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Any statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not statements of historical fact may be forward-looking statements. When we use the words “anticipates,” “believes,” “continues,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “seeks,” “should,” “will,” “would,” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology, we are identifying forward-looking statements.

 

Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, which may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements. Key factors that could cause actual results to be different than expected or anticipated include, but are not limited to:

 

 

our limited operating history and ability to become profitable;

 

 

our ability to manage our growth, including our human resource requirements;

 

 

our reliance on third parties for raw materials and production of our products;

 

 

our future capital resources and needs;

 

 

our ability to retain and grow our customer base;

 

 

our reliance on independent distributors for a substantial portion of our sales;

 

 

our ability to evaluate and measure our business, prospects, and performance metrics;

 

 

our ability to compete and succeed in a highly competitive and evolving industry;

 

 

the health of the premium organic and natural food industry as a whole;

 

 

risks related to our intellectual property rights and developing a strong brand;

 

 

our reliance on key personnel, including Laird Hamilton and Gabrielle Reece;

 

 

regulatory risks;

 

 

the risk of substantial dilution from future issuances of our equity securities; and

 

 

the other risks described herein and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which are inherently unreliable and speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. You should read this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the documents that we reference in this report with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance and achievements may be materially different from what we expect. When considering forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the cautionary statements in this report. We qualify all our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. We are not under any obligation, and we expressly disclaim any obligation, to update or alter any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Financial Statement Preparation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements (the "balance sheet(s)," "statement(s) of operations," "statement(s) of stockholders' equity," "statement(s) of cash flows," and, collectively, the "financial statements") include the accounts of Laird Superfood, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Picky Bars, LLC, (collectively, the “Company,” “Laird Superfood,” “we,” or "our"). In management's opinion, the financial statements contain all adjustments, which are normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position and its results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the interim periods.

 

Segment information is prepared on the same basis that the Company's Chief Executive Officer, who is deemed to be the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker, reviews financial information for operational decision-making purposes.

 

The financial statements and related financial information should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "2023 Form 10-K") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 13, 2024. The financial information as of  December 31, 2023 was derived from the audited financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 included in Item 8 of the 2023 Form 10-K. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the footnotes and management's discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial statements in the 10-K. Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") has been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and the accounting standards for interim financial statements.

 

Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In  November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which expands annual and interim disclosure requirements for reportable segments, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The expanded annual disclosures are effective for the year ending  December 31, 2024, and the expanded interim disclosures are effective in 2025 and will be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. While the Company is currently evaluating the expanded disclosure requirements, the Company does not expect the adoption of these amendments to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In  December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"), which requires, among other things, additional disclosures primarily related to the income tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The expanded annual disclosures are effective for our year ending  December 31, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2023-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and whether the Company will apply the standard prospectively or retrospectively.

 

Subsequent Events

 

Subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are available to be issued. The Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to June 30, 2024 for potential recognition of disclosure in the financial statements and determined that there were no such subsequent events, aside from those discussed below.

 

On July 12, 2024, the Company granted 694,650 shares of common stock issuable upon settlement of restricted stock units granted pursuant to the Laird Superfood, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended, to the reporting persons. The RSUs had a grant date fair value of $4.40 and will vest in equal installments, with 20% of the shares vesting on each of February 23, 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028 and 2029, respectively.

On September 15, 2023, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the “2023 Settlement Agreement”) with a supplier (the “Supplier”) to recover losses incurred in connection with the product quality issue with coconut milk powder that it experienced in 2023, pursuant to which the Supplier was obligated to, among other things, pay the Company $50,000 and provide a discount to the Company on the sale of future products of up to $950,000. On February 27, 2024, the Company filed a complaint against the Supplier in the District Court of Boulder, Colorado alleging that the Supplier breached the 2023 Settlement Agreement by failing to deliver acceptable coconut milk powder (the “Litigation”). Both parties dispute liability. As a result of the Litigation, on July 30, 2024, the Company entered into an additional settlement agreement with the Supplier (the “2024 Settlement Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Supplier agreed to remit cash payment to the Company of approximately $0.5 million.

 

2. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash

 

Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash are highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased. For the purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company includes cash on hand, cash in clearing accounts, cash on deposit with financial institutions, investments with an original maturity of three months or less, and restricted cash in determining the total balance.

 

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the balance sheets as of:

 $7,648,958  $7,566,299 

Restricted cash

  178,734   140,507 

Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash

 $7,827,692  $7,706,806 

 

Amounts in restricted cash represent those that are required to be set aside by the following contractual agreements:

 

 

On December 3, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement with Danone Manifesto Ventures, PBC, which provided the Company $298,103 in funds for the purpose of supporting three COVID-19 relief projects. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, cash equivalents in the amount of $99,525 were restricted under this agreement. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company contributed $0 to these projects. The restriction will be released upon the completion of the projects.

 

Cash equivalents of $530,000 were pledged to secure Company credit card limits. As of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $79,209 and $40,982, respectively, of these funds were restricted to collateralize borrowings against these Company credit cards. 

 

Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash balances that exceeded the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SPIC") insurable limits as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 totaled $6,907,907 and $6,756,207, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses related to these balances. The Company’s cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash are with what the Company believes to be a high-quality financial institution and considers the risks associated with these funds in excess of FDIC and SPIC insurable limits to be low.

The weighted-average useful life of all the Company’s intangible assets is 6.6 years.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, amortization expense was $47,278 and $98,999, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, amortization expense was $51,722 and $103,444, respectively. 

 

Definite-lived intangible assets

 

Definite life intangible assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Examples include a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which the Company uses the asset, or an unexpected change in financial performance. When evaluating definite life intangible assets for impairment, the Company compares the carrying value of the asset to the asset’s estimated undiscounted future cash flows. An impairment is indicated if the estimated future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset. The Company considered the above factors when assessing whether the Company’s long-lived assets will be recoverable.

 

Based on the analysis of the qualitative factors above, management determined that there were no triggering events or impairment charges in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets

 

On  August 3, 2015, the Company entered into a license agreement with the Company’s co-founder Laird Hamilton (the “LH License”). The LH License stated Mr. Hamilton’s contribution to the Company was in the form of intellectual property, granting the Company the right to use Mr. Hamilton’s name and likeness. This contribution, which was reported on the balance sheets as of  June 30, 2024 and  December 31, 2023, was valued at $132,000 and satisfied with the issuance of 660,000 shares of common stock. The Company has determined that the intangible asset associated with the LH License has an indefinite life, as there is no foreseeable limit on the period of time over which it is expected to contribute to the cash flows of the Company.

 

On  May 2, 2018, the Company entered into a license agreement with Gabrielle Reece, who is married to Mr. Hamilton (the “GR License”). Pursuant to the GR License, Ms. Reece granted the Company rights to her name, signature, voice, picture, image, likeness, and biographical information. This contribution, which is reported on the consolidated balance sheets as of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, was valued at $100 based on the consideration exchanged. The Company has determined that the intangible asset associated with the GR License has an indefinite life, as there is no foreseeable limit on the period of time over which it is expected to contribute to the cash flows of the Company.

 

On  November 19, 2018, the Company executed a License and Preservation Agreement with Mr. Hamilton and Ms. Reece which superseded the predecessor license agreements with both individuals. The agreement added specific terms related to non-competition and allowable usage of the property under the license. No additional consideration was exchanged in connection with the agreement and the life of the agreement was set at 100 years.

 

On  May 26, 2020, the Company executed a License and Preservation Agreement with Mr. Hamilton, and Ms. Reece (the “2020 License”), which superseded the predecessor license and preservation agreement with both individuals. Among other modifications, the agreement (i) modified certain approval rights of Mr. Hamilton and Ms. Reece for use of their respective images, signatures, voices, and names (other than those owned by the Company), rights of publicity and common law and statutory rights to the foregoing in the Company’s products, (ii) modified certain assignment, change of control and indemnification provisions, and (iii) granted the Company the right to extend the term of the agreement for additional ten-year terms upon the expiration of the initial one-hundred year term. No additional consideration was exchanged in connection with the agreement.

As of  June 30, 2024, the Company did not provide a current or deferred U.S. federal income tax provision or benefit for any of the periods presented because the Company has reported cumulative losses since inception. The Company has recorded a provision for state income taxes and a corresponding current state income tax payable of approximately $3,598 and $7,373 as of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. 

 

As of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had aggregate net operating losses ("NOLs") totaling approximately $140.5 million and $136.8 million, respectively. As of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had federal NOLs totaling approximately $1.9 million from 2017 and prior years that can be carried forward for 20 years and which begin to expire in 2036. As of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had federal NOLs totaling approximately $79.9 million and $77.8 million, respectively, from 2018 and subsequent years that can be carried forward indefinitely. As of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had state NOLs totaling $57.7 million and $57.1 million, respectively, that can be carried forward for between 15 and 20 years. As of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had credits totaling $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, that can be carried forward for five years. As of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had other carryforwards totaling $0.6 million that can be carried forward for between one and five years.

 

The use of net operating losses  may be subject to certain limitations, such as those triggered by ownership changes under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. Because these provisions, the use of a portion of the Company's NOLs and tax credit carryforwards  may be limited in future periods. Further, a portion of the carryforwards  may expire before being applied to reduce future income tax liabilities.

 

The Company assesses its deferred tax assets and liabilities to determine if it is more likely than not, they will be realized; if not, a valuation allowance is required to be recorded. Management has determined it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would not be realized, thus a full valuation allowance was recorded against the deferred tax assets. The Company  may reduce the valuation allowance against definite-lived deferred tax assets at such a time when it becomes more likely than not that the definite-lived deferred tax assets will be realized. The change in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were net increases of $0.8 million and $1.8 million, respectively.

 

GAAP requires management to evaluate and report information regarding its exposure to various tax positions taken by the Company. The Company has determined whether there are any tax positions that have met the recognition threshold and has measured the Company’s exposure to those tax positions. Management believes that the Company has adequately addressed all relevant tax positions and that there are no unrecorded tax liabilities. 

 

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. U.S. and state jurisdictions have statutes of limitations that generally range from 3 to 5 years.

The MSUs vest upon the 30-day weighted average stock price reaching or exceeding established targets within the requisite service period. We estimate the grant-date fair value of the MSUs using a Monte Carlo simulation which requires assumptions for expected volatility, risk-free rate of return and dividend yield. Compensation expense for these MSUs is recognized over the requisite service period regardless of whether the market conditions are satisfied.

11. Earnings (Loss) per Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is determined by dividing the net loss attributable to the Company's common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is similarly determined, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Dilutive potential common shares consist of employee stock options, RSUs, and MSUs. The dilutive effect of employee stock options, RSUs, and MSUs by the Company are calculated using the treasury stock method. Basic earnings per share is reconciled to diluted earnings per share in the following table:

14. Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s primary source of revenue is sales of coffee creamers, hydration and beverage enhancing supplements, harvest snacks and other food items, and coffee, tea, and hot chocolate products. The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised good is transferred to the customer and in amounts that the Company expects to collect. The timing of revenue recognition takes into consideration the various shipping terms applicable to the Company’s sales. Each delivery or shipment made to a customer is considered to satisfy a performance obligation. Performance obligations generally occur at a point in time and are satisfied when control of the goods passes to the customer. The Company is entitled to collect the sales price under normal credit terms. Additionally, the Company estimates the impact of certain common practices employed by us and other manufacturers of consumer products, such as scan-based trading, product rebate and other pricing allowances, product returns, trade promotions, sales broker commissions and slotting fees. These estimates are recorded at the end of each reporting period.

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company disaggregates net sales from contracts with customers based on the characteristics of the products sold:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is a supplement to and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023(the "2023 Form 10-K"). This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed below. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below and those discussed in the section titled Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the section titled Risk Factors included herein and in the 2023 Form 10-K.

 

Overview

 

Laird Superfood creates highly differentiated, plant-based, and functional foods, many of which incorporate adaptogens which may support a variety of brain functions. The core pillars of the Laird Superfood platform are currently Superfood Creamer coffee creamers, Hydrate hydration products and beverage enhancing supplements, Harvest snacks and other food items, and functional roasted and instant coffees, teas, and hot chocolate. Consumer preferences within the evolving food and beverage industry are shifting away from processed and sugar-laden food and beverage products, as well as those containing significant amounts of highly processed and artificial ingredients. Our long-term goal is to build the first scale-level and widely recognized brand that authentically focuses on natural ingredients, nutritional density, and functionality, allowing us to maximize penetration of a multi-billion-dollar opportunity in the grocery market.

 

Net sales were $10.0 million and $7.7 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, representing 30% growth. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, net sales were $19.9 million and $15.8 million, respectively, representing 26% growth. E-commerce channel sales increased by 47% in the second quarter of 2024 and 40% in year-to-date ("YTD") 2024 compared to the same periods in 2023 despite significant, planned reductions in media spend in the e-commerce channel. Sales through Amazon.com increased by 80% in Q2 2024 compared to Q2 2023, and by 63% comparing the 2024 and 2023 year-to-date periods, driven by growth in subscription revenue as well as new customer sales. Direct-to-Consumer ("DTC") sales, on lairdsuperfood.com and pickybars.com, increased by 32% comparing Q2 2024 to Q2 2023 and by 29% comparing YTD periods, driven by strong performance in both subscription and repeat customers, increasing average order value, and improved discount rates due to strategic shifts in promotional strategies. Wholesale channel net sales increased by 9% in both Q2 2024 and YTD 2024 as compared to the corresponding prior year periods, driven by sales growth in club stores, as well as velocity improvement and distribution expansion in grocery, and more efficient promotional spend across the wholesale channel.

 

Our e-commerce channel is comprised of DTC (lairdsuperfood.com and pickybars.com) and Amazon.com. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the e-commerce channel made up 61% and 60% of our net sales, respectively, compared to 54% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. Amazon.com accounted for 39% and 38%, respectively, of e-commerce channel sales, as compared to 32% for the corresponding 2023 periods. Lairdsuperfood.com and pickybars.com are platforms that provide an authentic brand experience for our consumers that drive engagement through educational content and provide feedback for future product development. We view our proprietary database of customers ordering directly from our website as a strategic asset, as it enhances our ability to develop a long-term relationship with these customers. We believe the content on our websites allows Laird Superfood to educate consumers on the benefits of our products and ingredients while providing a positive customer experience. We believe this experience leads to higher retention rates among repeat users and subscribers, as evidenced by repeat users and subscribers accounting for over three quarters of DTC sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the wholesale channel made up 39% and 40% of our net sales, respectively, compared to 46% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. Laird Superfood products are sold through a diverse set of retail channels, including conventional, natural, and specialty grocery stores, and club stores. The diversity of our retail channel represents a strong competitive advantage for Laird Superfood and provides us with a larger total addressable market than would be considered normal for a food brand that is singularly focused on the grocery market.

 

 

Recent Developments

 

Redomestication

 

On December 31, 2023 (the “Effective Date”), we changed our state of incorporation from the state of Delaware to the state of Nevada (the “Redomestication”) by means of a plan of conversion, as described in our definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 10, 2023.

 

As of the Effective Date:

 

 

our domicile changed from the state of Delaware to the state of Nevada; and

 

the affairs of the Company ceased to be governed by the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Company’s then existing certificate of incorporation and bylaws, and instead became governed by the Nevada Revised Statutes and the Company's new articles of incorporation and bylaws. 

 

The Redomestication was previously submitted to a vote of, and was approved by, our stockholders at our Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on November 28, 2023. The Redomestication did not result in any change in the business, physical location, management, assets, liabilities, or net worth of the Company, nor did it result in any change in location of our current employees, including management. The Redomestication did not affect any of our material contracts with any third parties, and our rights and obligations under those material contractual arrangements continue to be the rights and obligations of the Company after the Redomestication. The daily business operations of the Company will continue as they have been conducted prior to the Redomestication. The consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the Company immediately after consummation of the Redomestication remains the same as immediately before the Redomestication.

 

Entry into an Accounts Receivable Factoring Agreement

 

On May 7, 2024, the Company entered into an accounts receivable factoring agreement (the “Factoring Agreement”) with Alterna Capital Solutions LLC (the “Purchaser”). The Factoring Agreement allows the Company to access up to $2 million on a revolving basis. The upfront purchase price for factored accounts is up to 70% of their face value, with the remainder payable to the Company upon collection by the Purchaser. The proceeds will be used to fund general working capital needs. The Company will pay fees, including a funds usage fee (prime rate + 1.5%, minimum 10% per annum) and a collateral monitoring fee (0.05% per month). The Purchaser can require repurchase of uncollectable or ineligible accounts. 

 

The Factoring Agreement has an initial term of 12 months and will renew annually, unless terminated in accordance with the Factoring Agreement. The Company may terminate the Factoring Agreement at any time upon 30 days prior written notice and payment to Purchaser of an early termination fee equal to 2.0% of the Maximum Amount if terminated during the first 12 months and 1.0% of the Maximum Amount during the subsequent terms.

 

The Company has granted a security interest it's personal property to secure the payment and performance of all obligations under the Factoring Agreement. The Factoring Agreement includes customary provisions, including representations, warranties and covenants, indemnification, waiver of jury trial, and the exercise of remedies upon a breach or default. Such description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Factoring Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. 

 

Our Strategy and Key Factors Affecting our Performance

 

We believe that our future performance will depend on many factors, including the following:

 

Ability to Grow Our Customer Base in both E-commerce and Traditional Wholesale Distribution Channels

 

We are currently seeking to grow our customer base through both paid and organic online channels, as well as by expanding our presence in a variety of physical wholesale distribution channels. E-commerce customer acquisitions typically occur at our websites, lairdsuperfood.com and pickybars.com, and Amazon.com. Our e-commerce customer acquisition program includes paid and unpaid social media, search, display, and traditional media. Our products are also sold through a growing number of wholesale channels. Wholesale customers include grocery chains, natural food outlets, club stores, drug stores, and food service customers including coffee shops, gyms, restaurants, hospitality venues and corporate dining services, among others. Customer acquisition in physical wholesale channels depends on, among other things, paid promotions through retailers, display, and traditional media.

 

 

Ability to Manage Co-Manufacturer and Third-Party Logistics Relationships

 

All of our production and logistics is handled by third parties, and our performance will be highly dependent on the ability of these partners to produce and deliver our products in a timely manner and to our standards and at a reasonable cost.

 

Ability to Acquire and Retain Customers at a Reasonable Cost

 

We believe an ability to consistently acquire and retain customers at a reasonable cost relative to projected lifetime value will be a key factor affecting future performance. To accomplish this goal, we intend to balance advertising spend between online and offline channels, as well as balancing more targeted and measurable “direct response” marketing spend with advertising focused on increasing our long-term brand recognition, where success attribution is less directly measurable on a near-term basis.

 

Ability to Drive Repeat Usage of Our Products

 

We accrue substantial economic value from repeat customers who consistently re-order our products. The pace of our growth will be affected by the repeat usage dynamics of existing and newly acquired customers.

 

Ability to Expand Our Product Line

 

Our goal is to expand our product line over time to increase our growth opportunity and reduce product-specific risks through diversification into multiple products, each designed around daily use. Our pace of growth will be partially affected by the cadence and magnitude of new product launches over time.

 

Ability to Expand Gross Margins

 

Our overall profitability will be impacted by our ability to expand gross margins through effective sourcing of raw materials, controlling labor and shipping costs, controlling the impacts of inflationary market factors, as well as managing co-packer relationships.

 

Ability to Expand Operating Margins

 

Our ability to expand operating margins will be impacted by our ability to cover fixed general and administrative costs and variable sales and marketing costs with higher revenues and gross profit dollars.

 

Ability to Manage Our Global Supply Chain

 

Our ability to grow and meet future demand will be affected by our ability to properly plan for and source inventory from a variety of suppliers located inside and outside the United States. We may encounter difficulties in sourcing products.

 

Ability to Optimize Key Components of Working Capital

 

Our ability to reduce cash burn in the near-term and eventually generate positive cash flow will be partially impacted by our ability to effectively manage all the key working capital components that could influence our cash conversion cycle.

 

Components of Results of Operations

 

Sales, net

 

We sell our products indirectly to consumers through a broad set of physical wholesale channels. We also derive revenue from the sale of our products directly to consumers through our direct websites, as well as third-party online channels.

 

Cost of Goods Sold

 

Cost of goods sold includes the cost of raw materials and packaging, and overhead including inbound and outbound freight, direct and indirect labor, third-party logistics ("3PL") fees, warehouse storage costs, and other miscellaneous costs related to manufacturing and distributing our products. 

 

 

Operating Expenses

 

Our operating expenses consist of general and administrative expenses and sales and marketing expenses.

 

Income Taxes

 

Due to our history of operating losses and expectation of future operating losses, we do not expect any significant income tax expenses or benefits for the foreseeable future.

Sales, net

  $ 10,003,654     $ 7,724,091     $ 2,279,563       30 %

 

Net sales increased to $10.0 million in Q2 2024 from $7.7 million in Q2 2023, representing 30% growth year-over-year. The increase was primarily driven by a 47% increase in sales in the e-commerce channel through both platforms, Amazon.com and DTC, despite a planned reduction in promotional spend in DTC, as compared to reduced sales volume in the 2023 period from out-of-stocks associated with a quality event. Further, the wholesale channel also grew by 9% driven primarily by sales growth in club stores, velocity improvements and distribution gains in grocery stores, and more efficient promotional spend.

This expansion of gross margin is driven by full benefit realization of the transition to a third-party co-manufacturing model and a reduction in trade discounts due to a pullback in inefficient trade spend and elevated trade spend in the prior year associated with the quality event that occurred in 2023.

Sales and marketing expenses were $2.4 million in Q2 2024 compared to $2.8 million in Q2 2023, driven by planned reductions in marketing and advertising spend as we improve our media efficiency.

Sales, net

  $ 19,912,592     $ 15,837,029     $ 4,075,563       26 %

 

Net sales increased to $19.9 million in YTD 2024 from $15.8 million in YTD 2023, representing 26% growth year-over-year. The increase was primarily driven by a 40% increase in the e-commerce channel in sales through both platforms, Amazon.com and DTC, as well as reductions in promotional spend in DTC, as compared to reduced sales volume in 2023 from out-of-stocks associated with a quality event. Further, the wholesale channel also grew by 9% in the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the corresponding 2023 period, driven primarily by sales growth in club stores, velocity improvements and distribution gains in grocery stores, and more efficient promotional spend.

This improvement reflects increased net sales as well as the full benefits of the transition to a variable cost third-party co-manufacturing business model and a reduction in trade discounts due to improved promotional efficiencies and elevated trade spend in the prior year associated with the quality event that occurred in 2023.

Cash Flows

 

The following table shows a summary of our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023

2023

 

Cash flows from operating activities

  $ 220,414     $ (7,460,076 )

Cash flows from investing activities

    (13,462 )     245,706  

Cash flows from financing activities

    (86,066 )     (19,137 )

Net change in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash

  $ 120,886     $ (7,233,507 )

 

Cash provided by operating activities in FY2024 was enabled by our greatly improved margins and lower overhead enabled by our transition to a third-party co-manufacturing business model which we executed in 2023, reduced selling, marketing, and administrative spend, and efficient working capital management. 

 

Cash used in investing activities in FY2024 consists of purchases of office equipment. The cash generated in FY2023 was due to the sale of property and equipment related to the Sisters, Oregon exit.

 

Cash used in financing activities consists of common stock related costs. The increase in FY2024 was driven by common stock registration costs incurred, offset in part by stock option exercises. 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $107.6 million, which includes operating losses of $1.4 million and $8.0 million for YTD 2024 and YTD 2023, respectively. While we expect to incur additional operating losses as we continue efforts to grow our business, the strategic business transformation that we have undertaken over the last two years has become evident in our significant gross margin expansion, optimized investments in trade and marketing, lower selling, general, and administrative spending, and reduced cash burn. We will continue to seek opportunities to optimize spending, expand gross margins, and free up cash flow through efficient working capital management. We have historically financed our operations and capital expenditures through private placements of our common stock, our initial public offering ("IPO"), lines of credit, and term loans. Our historical uses of cash have primarily consisted of cash used in operating activities and working capital needs.

 

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had $7.8 million and $7.7 million, respectively, of cash-on-hand, and total net working capital of $11.4 million and $12.0 million for the same periods. As of June 30, 2024, we had access to up to $0.8 million of advances under an accounts receivable factoring agreement, of which $0.1 million had been utilized and was due to the Purchaser. We have no significant unused sources of liquid assets outside of our working capital. 

 

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our growth rate, the timing and extent of spending to support research and development efforts, the continued expansion of sales and marketing activities, the enhancement of our product platforms, and the introduction of new products and acquisition activity. Recent and expected working and other capital requirements, in addition to the above matters, also include the items described below:

 

 

We have lease arrangements for corporate office space. As of June 30, 2024, we had fixed lease payment obligations of $0.3 million, with $0.1 million payable within 12 months.

 

 

As of June 30, 2024, $5.1 million of current liabilities were accrued related to short-term operating activities and personnel costs, excluding the aforementioned current lease liabilities. 

 

 

Marketing and advertising expenditures were $3.6 million in YTD 2024 and $4.4 million in YTD 2023. We expect to continue to invest in these activities as part of the strategic expansion of sales volume, however, we have made strategic shifts to reduce and improve the efficacy of future customer acquisition costs.

 

 

Based on our current business plans, we believe that our existing cash balances, including our anticipated cash flow from operations, will be sufficient to finance our operations and meet our foreseeable cash requirements through at least the eighteen months following the date of this filing. In the future, we may raise funds by issuing debt or equity securities, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock. Such financing and other potential financing may result in dilution to stockholders, reduction in the market price of our common stock, imposition of debt covenants and repayment obligations, or other restrictions that may adversely affect our business. In addition, we may seek additional capital due to favorable market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. However, we may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed, on favorable terms, or at all.

 

Segment Information

 

We have one operating segment and one reportable segment. Our Chief Executive Officer reviews financial information on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and our management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and operating results require our management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported. Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 of the 2023 Form 10-K describe the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our financial statements. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates since the 2023 Form 10-K.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

See Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements in Note 1 to our financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

 

Emerging Growth Company Status

 

As a company with less than $1.235 billion in annual gross revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting and other burdens that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:

 

 

a requirement to have only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations;

 

 

an exemption from the auditor attestation requirement on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting;

 

 

reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements; and

 

 

no non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements.

 

We may take advantage of these provisions until the end of the fiscal year in which the fifth anniversary of our IPO occurs, or such earlier time when we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company. We will cease to be an emerging growth company on the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) in which we have more than $1.235 billion in annual gross revenue or (b) in which we have more than $700 million in market value of our capital stock held by non-affiliates, or (2) the date on which we issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all these reduced burdens.

 

In addition, the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. This provision allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of some accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards, and therefore we will not be subject to the same requirements to adopt new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.

 

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

 

Not Applicable.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to Company management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2024, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2024.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarterly period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Part II. Other Information

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

From time to time, we may be involved in claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. To our knowledge, there are no material pending legal proceedings to which we are a party or of which any of our property is the subject.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

There were no material changes to the Risk Factors disclosed in "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in the 2023 Form 10-K during these three and six months ended June 30, 2024. This quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the risk factors previously described in the Company's 2023 Form 10-K. 

 

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

 

None.

 

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities

 

None.

 

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

 

Not Applicable.

 

 

Item 5. Other Information

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, none of the Company's directors or executive officers adopted or terminated a "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" or "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement," as each term is defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Financial Statement Preparation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements (the "balance sheet(s)," "statement(s) of operations," "statement(s) of stockholders' equity," "statement(s) of cash flows," and, collectively, the "financial statements") include the accounts of Laird Superfood, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Picky Bars, LLC, (collectively, the “Company,” “Laird Superfood,” “we,” or "our"). In management's opinion, the financial statements contain all adjustments, which are normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position and its results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the interim periods.

 

Segment information is prepared on the same basis that the Company's Chief Executive Officer, who is deemed to be the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker, reviews financial information for operational decision-making purposes.

 

The financial statements and related financial information should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "2023 Form 10-K") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 13, 2024. The financial information as of  December 31, 2023 was derived from the audited financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 included in Item 8 of the 2023 Form 10-K. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the footnotes and management's discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial statements in the 10-K. Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") has been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and the accounting standards for interim financial statements.

 

Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In  November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which expands annual and interim disclosure requirements for reportable segments, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The expanded annual disclosures are effective for the year ending  December 31, 2024, and the expanded interim disclosures are effective in 2025 and will be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. While the Company is currently evaluating the expanded disclosure requirements, the Company does not expect the adoption of these amendments to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In  December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"), which requires, among other things, additional disclosures primarily related to the income tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The expanded annual disclosures are effective for our year ending  December 31, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2023-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and whether the Company will apply the standard prospectively or retrospectively.

 

Subsequent Events

 

Subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are available to be issued. The Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to June 30, 2024 for potential recognition of disclosure in the financial statements and determined that there were no such subsequent events, aside from those discussed below.

 

On July 12, 2024, the Company granted 694,650 shares of common stock issuable upon settlement of restricted stock units granted pursuant to the Laird Superfood, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended, to the reporting persons. The RSUs had a grant date fair value of $4.40 and will vest in equal installments, with 20% of the shares vesting on each of February 23, 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028 and 2029, respectively.

 

 

On September 15, 2023, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the “2023 Settlement Agreement”) with a supplier (the “Supplier”) to recover losses incurred in connection with the product quality issue with coconut milk powder that it experienced in 2023, pursuant to which the Supplier was obligated to, among other things, pay the Company $50,000 and provide a discount to the Company on the sale of future products of up to $950,000. On February 27, 2024, the Company filed a complaint against the Supplier in the District Court of Boulder, Colorado alleging that the Supplier breached the 2023 Settlement Agreement by failing to deliver acceptable coconut milk powder (the “Litigation”). Both parties dispute liability. As a result of the Litigation, on July 30, 2024, the Company entered into an additional settlement agreement with the Supplier (the “2024 Settlement Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Supplier agreed to remit cash payment to the Company of approximately $0.5 million.

2. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash

 

Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash are highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased. For the purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company includes cash on hand, cash in clearing accounts, cash on deposit with financial institutions, investments with an original maturity of three months or less, and restricted cash in determining the total balance.

 

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the balance sheets as of:

Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash

 $7,827,692  $7,706,806 

 

Amounts in restricted cash represent those that are required to be set aside by the following contractual agreements:

 

 

On December 3, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement with Danone Manifesto Ventures, PBC, which provided the Company $298,103 in funds for the purpose of supporting three COVID-19 relief projects. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, cash equivalents in the amount of $99,525 were restricted under this agreement. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company contributed $0 to these projects. The restriction will be released upon the completion of the projects.

 

Cash equivalents of $530,000 were pledged to secure Company credit card limits. As of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $79,209 and $40,982, respectively, of these funds were restricted to collateralize borrowings against these Company credit cards. 

 

Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash balances that exceeded the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SPIC") insurable limits as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 totaled $6,907,907 and $6,756,207, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses related to these balances. The Company’s cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash are with what the Company believes to be a high-quality financial institution and considers the risks associated with these funds in excess of FDIC and SPIC insurable limits to be low.

The weighted-average useful life of all the Company’s intangible assets is 6.6 years.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, amortization expense was $47,278 and $98,999, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, amortization expense was $51,722 and $103,444, respectively. 

 

Definite-lived intangible assets

 

Definite life intangible assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Examples include a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which the Company uses the asset, or an unexpected change in financial performance. When evaluating definite life intangible assets for impairment, the Company compares the carrying value of the asset to the asset’s estimated undiscounted future cash flows. An impairment is indicated if the estimated future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset. The Company considered the above factors when assessing whether the Company’s long-lived assets will be recoverable.

 

Based on the analysis of the qualitative factors above, management determined that there were no triggering events or impairment charges in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. 

 

Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from three to ten years. The estimated amortization expense for each of the next five years and thereafter is as follows:

 

2024 (excluding the six months ended June 30, 2024)

 $90,109

Indefinite-lived intangible assets

 

On  August 3, 2015, the Company entered into a license agreement with the Company’s co-founder Laird Hamilton (the “LH License”). The LH License stated Mr. Hamilton’s contribution to the Company was in the form of intellectual property, granting the Company the right to use Mr. Hamilton’s name and likeness. This contribution, which was reported on the balance sheets as of  June 30, 2024 and  December 31, 2023, was valued at $132,000 and satisfied with the issuance of 660,000 shares of common stock. The Company has determined that the intangible asset associated with the LH License has an indefinite life, as there is no foreseeable limit on the period of time over which it is expected to contribute to the cash flows of the Company.

 

On  May 2, 2018, the Company entered into a license agreement with Gabrielle Reece, who is married to Mr. Hamilton (the “GR License”). Pursuant to the GR License, Ms. Reece granted the Company rights to her name, signature, voice, picture, image, likeness, and biographical information. This contribution, which is reported on the consolidated balance sheets as of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, was valued at $100 based on the consideration exchanged. The Company has determined that the intangible asset associated with the GR License has an indefinite life, as there is no foreseeable limit on the period of time over which it is expected to contribute to the cash flows of the Company.

 

On  November 19, 2018, the Company executed a License and Preservation Agreement with Mr. Hamilton and Ms. Reece which superseded the predecessor license agreements with both individuals. The agreement added specific terms related to non-competition and allowable usage of the property under the license. No additional consideration was exchanged in connection with the agreement and the life of the agreement was set at 100 years.

 

On  May 26, 2020, the Company executed a License and Preservation Agreement with Mr. Hamilton, and Ms. Reece (the “2020 License”), which superseded the predecessor license and preservation agreement with both individuals. Among other modifications, the agreement (i) modified certain approval rights of Mr. Hamilton and Ms. Reece for use of their respective images, signatures, voices, and names (other than those owned by the Company), rights of publicity and common law and statutory rights to the foregoing in the Company’s products, (ii) modified certain assignment, change of control and indemnification provisions, and (iii) granted the Company the right to extend the term of the agreement for additional ten-year terms upon the expiration of the initial one-hundred year term. No additional consideration was exchanged in connection with the agreement.

9. Income Taxes

 

The Company had a tax net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and therefore has recorded no assessment of current federal income taxes. The Company is subject to minimum state taxes for various jurisdictions as well as subject to franchise taxes considered income taxes under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740, Income Taxes. A reconciliation of income tax expense at the federal statutory rate to the income tax provision at the Company's effective rate is as follows:

As of  June 30, 2024, the Company did not provide a current or deferred U.S. federal income tax provision or benefit for any of the periods presented because the Company has reported cumulative losses since inception. The Company has recorded a provision for state income taxes and a corresponding current state income tax payable of approximately $3,598 and $7,373 as of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. 

 

As of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had aggregate net operating losses ("NOLs") totaling approximately $140.5 million and $136.8 million, respectively. As of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had federal NOLs totaling approximately $1.9 million from 2017 and prior years that can be carried forward for 20 years and which begin to expire in 2036. As of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had federal NOLs totaling approximately $79.9 million and $77.8 million, respectively, from 2018 and subsequent years that can be carried forward indefinitely. As of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had state NOLs totaling $57.7 million and $57.1 million, respectively, that can be carried forward for between 15 and 20 years. As of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had credits totaling $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, that can be carried forward for five years. As of  June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had other carryforwards totaling $0.6 million that can be carried forward for between one and five years.

 

The use of net operating losses  may be subject to certain limitations, such as those triggered by ownership changes under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. Because these provisions, the use of a portion of the Company's NOLs and tax credit carryforwards  may be limited in future periods. Further, a portion of the carryforwards  may expire before being applied to reduce future income tax liabilities.

 

The Company assesses its deferred tax assets and liabilities to determine if it is more likely than not, they will be realized; if not, a valuation allowance is required to be recorded. Management has determined it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would not be realized, thus a full valuation allowance was recorded against the deferred tax assets. The Company  may reduce the valuation allowance against definite-lived deferred tax assets at such a time when it becomes more likely than not that the definite-lived deferred tax assets will be realized. The change in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were net increases of $0.8 million and $1.8 million, respectively.

 

GAAP requires management to evaluate and report information regarding its exposure to various tax positions taken by the Company. The Company has determined whether there are any tax positions that have met the recognition threshold and has measured the Company’s exposure to those tax positions. Management believes that the Company has adequately addressed all relevant tax positions and that there are no unrecorded tax liabilities. 

 

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. U.S. and state jurisdictions have statutes of limitations that generally range from 3 to 5 years.

The MSUs vest upon the 30-day weighted average stock price reaching or exceeding established targets within the requisite service period. We estimate the grant-date fair value of the MSUs using a Monte Carlo simulation which requires assumptions for expected volatility, risk-free rate of return and dividend yield. Compensation expense for these MSUs is recognized over the requisite service period regardless of whether the market conditions are satisfied.

Earnings Per Share [Text Block]

11. Earnings (Loss) per Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is determined by dividing the net loss attributable to the Company's common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is similarly determined, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Dilutive potential common shares consist of employee stock options, RSUs, and MSUs. The dilutive effect of employee stock options, RSUs, and MSUs by the Company are calculated using the treasury stock method. Basic earnings per share is reconciled to diluted earnings per share in the following table:

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Text Block]

14. Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s primary source of revenue is sales of coffee creamers, hydration and beverage enhancing supplements, harvest snacks and other food items, and coffee, tea, and hot chocolate products. The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised good is transferred to the customer and in amounts that the Company expects to collect. The timing of revenue recognition takes into consideration the various shipping terms applicable to the Company’s sales. Each delivery or shipment made to a customer is considered to satisfy a performance obligation. Performance obligations generally occur at a point in time and are satisfied when control of the goods passes to the customer. The Company is entitled to collect the sales price under normal credit terms. Additionally, the Company estimates the impact of certain common practices employed by us and other manufacturers of consumer products, such as scan-based trading, product rebate and other pricing allowances, product returns, trade promotions, sales broker commissions and slotting fees. These estimates are recorded at the end of each reporting period.

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company disaggregates net sales from contracts with customers based on the characteristics of the products sold:

On  May 7, 2024, the Company entered into an accounts receivable factoring agreement (the “Factoring Agreement”) with Alterna Capital Solutions LLC (the “Purchaser”). The Factoring Agreement allows the Company to access up to $2 million on a revolving basis. The upfront purchase price for factored accounts is up to 70% of their face value, with the remainder payable to the Company upon collection by the Purchaser. The proceeds will be used to fund general working capital needs. The Company will pay fees, including a funds usage fee (prime rate + 1.5%, minimum 10% per annum) and a collateral monitoring fee (0.05% per month). The Purchaser can require repurchase of uncollectable or ineligible accounts. 

 

The Factoring Agreement has an initial term of 12 months and will renew annually, unless terminated in accordance with the Factoring Agreement. The Company  may terminate the Factoring Agreement at any time upon 30 days prior written notice and payment to Purchaser of an early termination fee equal to 2.0% of the Maximum Amount if terminated during the first 12 months and 1.0% of the Maximum Amount during the subsequent terms.

 

The Company has granted a security interest it's personal property to secure the payment and performance of all obligations under the Factoring Agreement. The Factoring Agreement includes customary provisions, including representations, warranties and covenants, indemnification, waiver of jury trial, and the exercise of remedies upon a breach or default. Such description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Factoring Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Factored receivables due to the purchaser of $106,552 and $0 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, were included in accounts receivable on the balance sheet.

Financial Statement Preparation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements (the "balance sheet(s)," "statement(s) of operations," "statement(s) of stockholders' equity," "statement(s) of cash flows," and, collectively, the "financial statements") include the accounts of Laird Superfood, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Picky Bars, LLC, (collectively, the “Company,” “Laird Superfood,” “we,” or "our"). In management's opinion, the financial statements contain all adjustments, which are normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position and its results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the interim periods.

 

Segment information is prepared on the same basis that the Company's Chief Executive Officer, who is deemed to be the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker, reviews financial information for operational decision-making purposes.

 

The financial statements and related financial information should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "2023 Form 10-K") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 13, 2024. The financial information as of  December 31, 2023 was derived from the audited financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 included in Item 8 of the 2023 Form 10-K. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the footnotes and management's discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial statements in the 10-K. Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") has been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and the accounting standards for interim financial statements.

 

Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In  November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which expands annual and interim disclosure requirements for reportable segments, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The expanded annual disclosures are effective for the year ending  December 31, 2024, and the expanded interim disclosures are effective in 2025 and will be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. While the Company is currently evaluating the expanded disclosure requirements, the Company does not expect the adoption of these amendments to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In  December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"), which requires, among other things, additional disclosures primarily related to the income tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The expanded annual disclosures are effective for our year ending  December 31, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2023-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and whether the Company will apply the standard prospectively or retrospectively.

 

Subsequent Events, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Subsequent Events

 

Subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are available to be issued. The Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to June 30, 2024 for potential recognition of disclosure in the financial statements and determined that there were no such subsequent events, aside from those discussed below.

 

On July 12, 2024, the Company granted 694,650 shares of common stock issuable upon settlement of restricted stock units granted pursuant to the Laird Superfood, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended, to the reporting persons. The RSUs had a grant date fair value of $4.40 and will vest in equal installments, with 20% of the shares vesting on each of February 23, 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028 and 2029, respectively.

 

 

On September 15, 2023, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the “2023 Settlement Agreement”) with a supplier (the “Supplier”) to recover losses incurred in connection with the product quality issue with coconut milk powder that it experienced in 2023, pursuant to which the Supplier was obligated to, among other things, pay the Company $50,000 and provide a discount to the Company on the sale of future products of up to $950,000. On February 27, 2024, the Company filed a complaint against the Supplier in the District Court of Boulder, Colorado alleging that the Supplier breached the 2023 Settlement Agreement by failing to deliver acceptable coconut milk powder (the “Litigation”). Both parties dispute liability. As a result of the Litigation, on July 30, 2024, the Company entered into an additional settlement agreement with the Supplier (the “2024 Settlement Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Supplier agreed to remit cash payment to the Company of approximately $0.5 million.
