In October 2025, the Company ceased operations of its Comfort Foods manufacturing subsidiary and exited the leased facility located in North Andover, Massachusetts. The lease for this facility was scheduled to expire on May 31, 2028. Upon the closure of Comfort Foods, the Company determined that the right-of-use asset associated with the lease was fully impaired, as the facility would no longer be utilized in the Company’s operations. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $400,000 to write off the remaining ROU asset. Based on ongoing legal discussions with the landlord and management’s estimate of the expected settlement amount, the Company reduced the lease liability by approximately $200,000, which partially offset the impairment charge. After this adjustment, the remaining estimated lease liability is approximately $200,000, representing management’s best estimate of the Company’s remaining obligation under the lease. The related impairment charge is included in selling and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.
