NOTE 1       SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

General

The condensed consolidated balance sheet of Chase General Corporation (hereinafter referred to as Chase, the Company, we, our, and us) at June 30, 2024 has been taken from audited consolidated financial statements at that date and condensed. The condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended December 31, 2024 and for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023 are unaudited and reflect all normal and recurring accruals and adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the interim periods presented in this quarterly report. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, together with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2024. The results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2024 and cash flows for the six months ended December 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to fairly present financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods have been included.

Revenue Recognition

The majority of our revenue is derived by fulfilling customer orders for the purchase of our products, including 1) a candy bar marketed under the trade name “Cherry Mash” and 2) coconut, peanut, chocolate, and fudge confectioneries. The Company recognizes revenue at the point in time that control of the ordered product(s) is transferred to the customer, which is typically upon shipment to the customer. Shipping and handling costs incurred to ship product to the customer are recorded within cost of sales. Amounts billed and due from our customers are classified as trade receivables on the consolidated balance sheet and require payment on a short-term basis. Generally, individual orders from customers are accounted for as a single performance obligation.

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for fulfilling product orders. Sales, value added, and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. The amount of consideration the Company expects to receive and revenue the Company recognizes includes estimates of variable consideration, including costs for trade promotional programs, customer incentives, and allowances and discounts associated with aged or potentially unsaleable products. These estimates are based upon our analysis of the programs offered, historical trends, and expectations regarding customer and consumer participation, sales and payment trends and our experience with payment patterns associated with similar programs offered in the past. The Company reviews and updates these estimates regularly and the impact of any adjustments are recognized in the period the adjustments are identified.

NOTE 1       SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Revenue Recognition (cont.)

The majority of the Company’s products are confectionery and confectionery-based and, therefore, exhibit similar economic characteristics, such that they are based on similar ingredients and are marketed and sold through the same channels to the same customers. The Company operates two divisions, Chase Candy Products and Seasonal Candy Products. Chase Candy Products involve production and sale of a candy bar marketed under the trade name “Cherry Mash”. The Seasonal Candy Products involve production and sale of coconut, peanut, chocolate, and fudge confectioneries. Both divisions share a common labor force and utilize the same basic equipment and raw materials. Management considers these two divisions as one reportable segment. The various divisions of revenue are as follows:

For the three months ended December 31,

	2024		2023
SALES
Chase Candy	$	720,907	$	568,451
Seasonal Candy		734,605		770,041
Total	$	1,455,512	$	1,338,492

For the six months ended December 31,

	2024		2023

Chase Candy	$	1,037,875	$	952,177

Subsequent Events

Other than what is disclosed in Note 3, no other events have occurred subsequent to December 31, 2024, through the date of filing this form, that would require disclosure in this Form 10-Q or would be required to be recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of or for the six month period ended December 31, 2024.

NOTE 4       INCOME TAXES

The Company follows the provisions for uncertain tax positions as addressed in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 740-10. The Company recorded an income tax provision of $43,395 for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and $37,785 for the six months ended December 31, 2024.  The income tax provision is a result of additional net operating income generated during these periods.  The current income tax payable is $8,381 which results from the net operating loss being limited to 80% of taxable income.  As of December 31, 2024, the Company has estimated net operating loss carryovers of $61,565, none of which expire.    

Due to the utilization of net operating loss carryovers, there is a deferred tax liability as of December 31, 2024 of $8,165.  The Company has no material tax positions at December 31, 2024, for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain, but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.  The Company had no accruals for interest or penalties at December 31, 2024.  The Company’s federal income tax returns for the fiscal years ended 2022, 2023, and 2024 are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service taxing authority.

The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and payables, and line-of-credit. There are no significant differences between the carrying value and fair value of any of these financial instruments.

NOTE 7       COMMITMENT, CONTINGENCIES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company leases its office and manufacturing facility located in St. Joseph, Missouri under an operating lease from an entity that is partially owned by the son of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The lease term is from February 1, 2005 through March 31, 2025 with an option to extend for an additional term of five years.  During the year ended June 30, 2023, the Company determined the exercise of the renewal option is reasonably assured and has therefore remeasured the right-of-use asset and lease liability to include the additional five years at the current rate so that the new term expires on March 31, 2030. The lease currently requires payments of $6,500 per month, as noted the Company does not believe the payments in the renewal period will vary significantly from this current amount.

NOTE 7       COMMITMENT, CONTINGENCIES, AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (cont.)

An operating lease right-of-use asset and lease liability was recognized based on the present value of minimum lease payments over the remaining lease term. The Company’s operating lease has a remaining term of 5.25 years and the present value of the lease payments is calculated using the Company’s estimated incremental borrowing rate of 7.6% as of the remeasurement date. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company’s lease agreement does not contain any residual value guarantees. The Company has made a policy election to combine lease and non-lease components, and a policy election to not recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for leases that are less than twelve months. Cash paid for operating lease liabilities was $45,500 and operating lease expense was $39,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2024, of which, $35,782 is included in cost of sales and $3,218 is included in general and administrative expenses.

Minimum annual payments required under existing operating lease liabilities that have initial or remaining noncancelable terms in excess of one year as of December 31, 2024 are as follows:

Twelve Months Ending December 31,	Amount

financial condition and results of operations

OVERVIEW

Chase General Corporation (Chase) is a holding company for its wholly-owned subsidiary, Dye Candy Company. This subsidiary is the main operating company that is engaged in the manufacture of confectionery products which are sold primarily to wholesale houses, grocery accounts, vendors, and repackers. The subsidiary (Company) operates two divisions, Chase Candy division and Seasonal Candy division, which share a common labor force and utilize the same basic equipment and raw materials. Therefore, segment reporting for the two divisions is not maintained by management.

The Company’s business, like that of many other confectionary product manufacturers, is seasonal. Historically, the Company has realized more of its sales and earnings in the second fiscal quarter, which includes the majority of the holiday shopping season, than in any other fiscal quarter.

SALES (cont.)

The 27% increase in sales of Chase Candy of $152,456 for the three months ended December 31, 2024 over the same period ended December 31, 2023, is primarily due to the effect of the following: 1) increased net sales of approximately $49,000 for the Cherry Mash Bar L276/L277 segments due to an increase in orders to existing customers; 2) increased sales of the Mini Mash L278/L212 segment by approximately $60,000 versus the same period a year ago primarily due to increased orders from existing customers; 3) increased sales of the L279/L299 Bulk Mini Mash segment by approximately $7,500 versus the same period a year ago primarily due to increased orders from existing customers; 4) increased sales of the Changemaker Jar L260 and Mini Mash Keg L264 segments by approximately $8,000 due to an increase in orders to existing customers; and 5) increased net sales of the L100/L200 Cherry Mash Merchandisers segment by approximately $28,000 due to an increase in orders to existing customers.

The 5% decrease in sales of Seasonal Candy of $35,436 for the three months ended December 31, 2024 over the same period ended December 31, 2023 is primarily due to the effect of: 1) increased sales in the clamshell division by approximately $38,000 versus the same period a year ago, primarily due to increased sales to existing customers; offset by 2) decreased sales in the bulk seasonal division by approximately $12,000 versus the same period a year ago; and 3) decreased sales to existing customers in the regular produce category by approximately $62,000 versus the same period a year ago.

Sales decreased $4,758 or less than 1% for the six months ended December 31, 2024 to $2,444,533 compared to $2,449,291 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Sales for Chase Candy increased $85,698 to $1,037,875 for the six months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $952,177 for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Sales for Seasonal Candy decreased $90,456 to $1,406,658 for the six months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $1,497,114 for the six months ended December 31, 2023.

The 9% increase in sales of Chase Candy of $85,698 for the six months ended
December 31, 2024 over the same period ended December 31, 2023, is primarily due to the effect of the following: 1) increased net sales of approximately $35,000 for the Cherry Mash Bar L276/L277 segments due to an increase in orders to existing customers; 2) increased sales of the Mini Mash L278/L212 segment by approximately $38,000 versus the same period a year ago primarily due to increased orders from existing customers; 3) increased sales of the L279/L299 Bulk Mini Mash segment by approximately $2,900 versus the same period a year ago primarily due to increased orders from existing customers; and 4) increased sales of the Changemaker Jar L260 and Mini Mash Keg L264 segments by approximately $4,900 due to an increase in orders to existing customers; 5) decrease in sales allowances and discounts of approximately $10,000 offset by 6) decreased net sales of the L100/L200 Cherry Mash Merchandisers segment by approximately $3,300 due to a decrease in orders to existing customers.

The 6% decrease in sales of Seasonal Candy of $90,456 for the six months ended December 31, 2024 over the same period ended December 31, 2023, is primarily due to decreases in orders in the first and second quarters, including: 1) decreased sales in the clamshell division by approximately $13,500 versus the same period a year ago, primarily due to decreased sales to existing customers; 2) decreased sales in the bulk seasonal division by approximately $18,300 versus the same period a year ago; and 3) decreased sales to existing customers in the regular produce category by approximately $73,700 versus the same period a year ago; offset by 4) a decrease in sales allowance and discounts by approximately $16,000.

In addition to the changes in the overall quantities sold during both the three and six months ended December 31, 2024, the Company was able to implement a price increase in March 2024 of approximately 14% for the majority of the customers for Chase Candy products. For the Seasonal Candy divisions, the Company was able to implement a price increase in July 2024 of approximately 14% for the bulk and clamshell products.  Both price increases noted above have contributed to an increase in margins for the three months ended December 31, 2024.  Due to the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, it was reasonable that most of these price increases implemented earlier in the year were more fully realized during the second quarter of 2025.

COST OF SALES

The cost of sales decreased $18,922 to $980,269 or 67% of related sales for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $999,191 or 75% of related sales for the three months ended December 31, 2023.

The cost of sales decreased $111,864 to $1,684,347 or 69% of related sales for the six months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $1,796,211 or 73% of related sales for the six months ended December 31, 2023.

The slight decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of sales for both the quarter and the six months ended December 31, 2024, is related to price and labor efficiencies. Due to volatility in the regions where these raw materials are grown, management anticipates the prices of these raw materials to continue to fluctuate primarily based on supply and demand.

SELLING EXPENSES

Selling expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2024 increased $6,020 to $112,733, which is 8% of sales, compared to $106,713, or 8% of sales for the three months ended December 31, 2023.

Selling expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2024 increased $2,429 to $209,524, which is 9% of sales, compared to $207,095, or 8% of sales for the six months ended December 31, 2023.

The increase in selling expenses for both the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2024, is primarily due to increases in freight costs attributable to ongoing supply chain issues, as well as an increase related to truck and automotive depreciation.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2024 increased $13,810 to $179,584 and 12% of sales, compared to $165,774 or 12% of sales for the three months ended December 31, 2023.

The increase of $13,810 in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2024 is primarily due to an increase in professional fees of approximately $18,800 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2023.  The increase of professional fees during the second quarter of fiscal year 2025 is related to the timing and nature of fees from service providers as part of the annual and quarterly filings.   Additionally, in the three-month period ended December 31, 2024, office supplies expense increased by approximately $2,000 and insurance expense increased by approximately $3,300 from the prior period. These increases are offset by a decrease in dues and subscriptions fees of approximately $8,500 and decreases in various other general and administrative expense items.  The decrease in dues and subscriptions fee is related to an annual subscription fee charged from one of the Company’s largest customers that was paid during the first quarter 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023.

General and administrative expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2024 increased $18,843 to $383,713 and 16% of sales, compared to $364,870 or 15% of sales for the six months ended December 31, 2023.

The increase of $18,843 in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2024 is primarily due to an increase in professional fees of approximately $9,300 compared to the six months ended December 31, 2023. Additionally, in the six-month period ended December 31, 2024, office supplies expense increased by approximately $2,200 and insurance expense increased by approximately $7,500 from the prior period.

Other expense decreased by $2,419 for the six months ended December 31, 2024 to ($10,562) compared to ($12,981) for the six months ended December 31, 2023.

The majority of this change can be attributed to a decrease in interest expense, specifically due to interest rate reductions that began in the first quarter of 2024.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

NET INCOME

The Company reported a net income for the three months ended December 31, 2024 of $136,215, compared to a net income of $44,891 for the three months ended December 31, 2023.

This increase of $74,270 is explained above.

PREFERRED DIVIDENDS

Preferred dividends were $32,018 for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, which reflects additional preferred stock dividends in arrears on the Company’s Series A and Series B $5 par value preferred stock and its Series A and Series B $20 par value preferred stock.

Preferred dividends were $64,036 for the six months ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, which reflects additional preferred stock dividends in arrears on the Company’s Series A and Series B $5 par value preferred stock and its Series A and Series B $20 par value preferred stock.

NET INCOME (LOSS) APPLICABLE TO COMMON STOCKHOLDERS

Net income applicable to common stockholders for the three months ended December 31, 2024 was $104,197 which is an increase of $91,324 as compared to the net income applicable to common stockholders for the three months ended December 31, 2023 of $12,873.

Net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders for the six months ended December 31, 2024 was $54,566 which is an increase of $74,270 as compared to the net loss applicable to common stockholders for the six months ended December 31, 2024 of ($19,704).

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The table below presents the summary of cash flows for the fiscal period indicated.

	Six Months Ended
	December 31,
	2024		2023
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities	$	427,876	$	454,937
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities	$	(150,707)	$	(216,167)

Management has made no material commitments for capital expenditures during the remainder of fiscal year 2025. The $427,876 of cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended December 31, 2024 is fully detailed in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. The $150,707 of cash used in financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2024 is fully detailed in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

In order to maintain funds to finance operations and meet debt obligations, it is the intention of management to continue its efforts to expand the present market area and increase sales to existing customers. Management also intends to continue tight control on all expenditures. Due to volatility in the regions where these raw materials are grown, management anticipates the prices of these raw materials to continue to fluctuate primarily based on supply and demand. Management intends to make sales price adjustments in the future to correspond with changes in raw material prices. Management believes that the projected cash flow from operations combined with the availability on the line of credit and the Company’s ability to generate positive working capital will be sufficient to meet its funding requirements for the foreseeable future.

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a)Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Chase’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of Chase’s disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, such officer has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as a result of a weakness in the design of internal control over financial reporting identified below.

Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in periodic filings under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to Management, including those officers, and to members of the board of directors, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

A material weakness was identified in our internal control over financial reporting due to a lack of accounting personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training to perform an assessment of its internal controls. This has also resulted in a failure to maintain appropriate segregation of duties over system access. Management believes that this material weakness did not have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial results reported herein.  

(b)Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no significant changes in Chase’s internal control over financial reporting or in other factors that management’s estimates are reasonably likely to materially affect Chase’s internal control over financial reporting subsequent to the date of evaluation.
