Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
For the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023
| 1. | NATURE OF OPERATIONS |
Byrna Technologies Inc. (the “Company” or “Byrna”) is a technology company, specializing in next generation alternatives to traditional firearms without the risk of taking a life. The Company's launchers can be used for self-defense and personal security by consumers in all 50 states without a firearms license, subject to local regulations. The Company also sell accessories, pepper sprays, and other personal safety tools. Most of the sales are to consumers in the United States via our Company e-commerce site, the Amazon storefront, or the brick and mortar location in Las Vegas, and through retailers, including big box stores. The Company's products also may be sold to private security and public security officers. Since 2020, the Company have not manufactured or sold any products to or for use by the military. The Company operates manufacturing facilities, a
On January 10, 2023, the Company created a new joint venture with Fusady S.A. ("Fusady") located in Uruguay, to expand the Company's operations and presence in South American markets. The Company holds
| 2. | OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT PLANS |
From inception to February 29, 2024, the Company has incurred an accumulated deficit of approximately $
Management projects that all cash needs will be met beyond one year from the time these financial statements are issued.
| 3. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
These condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023 include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”); however, such information reflects all adjustments consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The unaudited 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 the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2023. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the results of its operations for the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, and its cash flows for the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
| 4. | USE OF ESTIMATES |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and any such differences may be material to our condensed consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates include assumptions about stock-based compensation expense, valuation for deferred tax assets, incremental borrowing rate on leases, valuation and carrying value of goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets, useful life of long-lived assets, inventory reserves, and allowance for credit losses.
| 5. | RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE |
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"). ASUs not discussed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the financial statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement
In 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016- 13”). The guidance changes the impairment model used to measure credit losses for most financial assets. A new forward-looking expected credit loss model will replace the existing incurred credit loss model and will impact the Company’s accounts receivables. This is expected to generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on December 1, 2023 and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Accounting Pronouncement Issued but Not Adopted
In 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 – Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). This update standardizes categories for the effective tax rate reconciliation, requires disaggregation of income taxes and additional income tax-related disclosures. This update is required to be effective for the Company for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2023-09 will have on its financial statements and disclosures.
ASU 2023-07: Segment Reporting Topic 280 - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This update requires expanded annual and interim disclosures for significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. This update will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and is to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2023-07 will have on its financial statements and disclosures and believes it will not a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
On March 21, 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2024-01, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards, which provides illustrative guidance to help entities determine whether profits interest and similar awards should be accounted for as share-based payment arrangements within the scope of FASB Accounting Standards Codification (FASB ASC) 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. The Company believe it will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
| 6. | Goodwill |
Goodwill resulting from a business combination is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances occur that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The Company has the option to perform a qualitative assessment over goodwill when events occur or circumstances change that would, more likely than not, reduce the fair value of a reporting unit or to bypass the qualitative assessment in any period and proceed directly to performing the quantitative goodwill impairment test. If the Company concludes, based on the qualitative assessment, that the carrying value of a reporting unit would more likely than not exceed its fair value, a quantitative assessment is performed which is based upon a comparison of the reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. The fair values used in this evaluation are estimated by the Company based upon future discounted cash flow projections for the reporting unit. An impairment charge is recognized for any amount by which the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its fair value.
The Company performs its annual review for impairment during the third quarter of each year. The Company assesses goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level, which is defined as an operating segment or one level below an operating segment, referred to as a component. The Company’s operations constitute a single reporting unit and goodwill is assessed for impairment at the Company as a whole. At August 31, 2023, the Company determined that there was impairment of goodwill.

| 8. | REVENUE, DEFERRED REVENUE AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE |
The Company generates most of its revenue through e-commerce portals to consumers, as well as wholesale distribution of its products and accessories to dealers/distributors and retail stores. The Company also sells products to large end-users such as private security companies and law enforcement agencies. Since winding down the legacy 40mm business in 2019 and 2020, the Company does not manufacture or sell any products regulated by the BATF or for military applications. Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of goods to the customer, which generally occurs when title to goods is passed and risk of loss transfers to the customer. Depending on the contract terms, transfer of control is upon shipment of goods to or upon the customer’s pick-up of the goods. Payment terms to customers other than e-commerce customers are generally 30-60 days for established customers, whereas new wholesale and large end-user customers have prepaid terms for their first order. The amount of revenue recognized is net of returns and discounts that the Company offers to its customers. Products purchased include a standard warranty that cannot be purchased separately. This allows customers to return defective products for repair or replacement within year of sale. The Company also sells an extended warranty for the same terms over three years. The extended
The Company offers e-commerce customers a 14-day money-back guarantee, which allows for a full refund of the purchase price, excluding shipping charges, within 14 days from the date of delivery. The right of return creates a variable component to the transaction price and needs to be considered for any possible constraints. The Company estimates returns using the expected value method, as there will likely be a range of potential return amounts. The Company’s reserve for returns under the 14-day money back guarantee for the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023 were immaterial.
The Company does not offer a money-back guarantee to dealers or retailers. These customers may request a return or credit for unforeseen reasons or who may have agreed discounts or allowances to be netted from amounts invoiced. According, the Company reserves for returns, discounts and allowances based on past performance and on agreement terms and reports revenue net of the estimated reserve. The Company's reserve for returns, discounts, and allowances for the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023 were immaterial.
The Company accounts for shipping and handling activities related to contracts with customers as costs to fulfill the promise to transfer the associated products. Shipping and handling costs associated with the distribution of finished products to customers, are recorded in operating expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss and are recognized when the product is shipped to the customer.
Included as cost of goods sold are costs associated with the production and procurement of products, such as labor and overhead, inbound freight costs, manufacturing depreciation, purchasing and receiving costs, and inspection costs.
Accounts Receivable
The Company records accounts receivables due from dealers/distributers, large end-users such as retail stores, security companies, and law enforcement agencies. Accounts receivable, net of allowances, was $
Allowance for Expected Credit Losses
The Company estimates the balance of its allowance for expected credit losses. In determining the amount of the allowance for credit losses, the Company considers historical collectability based on past due status and makes judgments about the creditworthiness of customers based on ongoing credit evaluations. The Company also considers customer-specific information, current market conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. Account balances are written off against the allowance when it is determined that the receivable will not be recovered. As of February 29, 2024, November 30, 2023 and November 30, 2022, the total allowance for credit losses recorded was $

2020 Plan
On October 23, 2020, the Company's Board of Directors approved and on November 19, 2020, the stockholders approved the Byrna Technologies Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”). The aggregate number of shares of common stock available for issuance in connection with options and other awards granted under the 2020 Plan is
The Company accounts for all stock-based payment awards granted to employees and non-employees as stock-based compensation expense at their grant date fair value. The Company’s stock-based payments include stock options, RSUs, and incentive warrants. The measurement date for employee awards is the date of grant, and stock-based compensation costs are recognized as expense over the employees’ requisite service period, on a straight-line basis. The measurement date for non-employee awards is generally the date the services were completed, resulting in financial reporting period adjustments to stock-based compensation during either the expected term or the contractual term. Stock-based compensation costs for non-employees are recognized as expense over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur.
The fair value of each grant is estimated on the date of grant by using either the Black-Scholes, Binomial Lattice, or the quoted stock price on the date of grant, unless the awards are subject to market conditions in which case the Company uses the Monte Carlo simulation model. Due to the Company’s limited history, the expected term of the Company’s stock options granted to employees has been determined utilizing the method as prescribed by the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin, Topic 14. The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. Expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends on common stock and does not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

For the three months ended February 29, 2024, the Company recorded net income, as such, used diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding when calculating diluted income per share for the three months ended February 29, 2024. Stock options and RSUs that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share (“EPS”) in the future are included in the computation of diluted income per share.
For the three months ended February 28, 2023, the Company recorded net loss. As such, because the dilution from potential common shares was antidilutive, the Company used basic weighted-average common shares outstanding, rather than diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding when calculating diluted loss per share for the February 28, 2023. Stock options and RSUs that could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share were as follows:

Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of our business, the Company may be subject to certain other legal actions and claims, including product liability, consumer, commercial, tax and governmental matters, which may arise from time to time. The Company does not believe it is currently a party to any pending legal proceedings. Notwithstanding, legal proceedings are subject-to inherent uncertainties, and an unfavorable outcome could include monetary damages, and excessive verdicts can result from litigation, and as such, could result in a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, and/or cash flows. Additionally, although the Company has specific insurance for certain potential risks, the Company may in the future incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims which may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, and/or cash flows.

| 20. | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
The Company is exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial instruments. This note describes the Company’s objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them.
| i) | Currency Risk |
The Company held its cash balances within banks in the U.S. in U.S. dollars and with banks in South Africa in U.S. dollars and South African rand. The Company’s operations are conducted in the U.S. and South Africa. The value of the South African rand against the U.S. dollar may fluctuate with changes in economic conditions.
During the three months ended February 29, 2024, in comparison to the prior year period, the U.S. dollar was weaker in relation to the South African rand, and upon the translation of the Company’s subsidiaries’ revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities held in South African rand and the Company recorded a translation adjustment loss of $
The Company’s South African subsidiary revenues, cost of goods sold, operating costs and capital expenditures are denominated in South African rand. Consequently, fluctuations in the U.S. dollar exchange rate against the South African rand increases the volatility of sales, cost of goods sold and operating costs and overall net earnings when translated into U.S. dollars. The Company is not using any forward or option contracts to fix the foreign exchange rates. Using a
| ii) | Credit Risk |
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and the loan receivable from Byrna LATAM. The Company maintains cash with high credit quality financial institutions located in the U.S. and South Africa. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances with financial institutions in the U.S. in excess of amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
The Company is exposed to credit losses on accounts receivable balances. The Company uses a simplified approach to calculate a general provision for credit losses. An allowance is calculated for each aging “bucket,” based on the risk profile of that bucket. The Company revisit the reserve periodically, but no less than quarterly, with the same analytical approach in order to determine if the allowance needs to be increased or decreased, based calculation of each aging bucket.

OVERVIEW
The following discussion and analysis is intended to help you understand us, our operations and our financial performance. It should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes, which are included in Item 1 of this report.
Byrna Technologies is a designer, manufacturer, retailer and distributor of innovative technological solutions for security situations that do not require the use of lethal force. Our mantra is Live Safe, and our core mission is to empower individuals to safely and fully engage in life and adventure. Our design team’s directive is to build easy-to-use self-defense tools to enhance the safety of our customers and their loved ones at home and outdoors. We are also focused on developing tools that can be used instead of firearms by professional law enforcement and private security customers to reduce shootings and facilitate trust between police and the communities they seek to serve. Our strategy is to establish Byrna® as a consumer lifestyle brand associated with the confidence people can achieve by knowing they can protect themselves, their loved ones and those around them. We believe we have a significant opportunity to leverage the Byrna brand to expand our product line, broaden our user base and generate increasing sales from new and existing customers.
Our business strategy is twofold: (1) to fulfill the growing demand for less-lethal products in the law enforcement, correctional services, and private security markets and (2) to provide civilians – including those whose work or daily activities may put them at risk of being a victim – with easy access to an effective, non-lethal way to protect themselves and their loved ones from threats to their person or property.
We believe that the United States, along with many other parts of the world, is experiencing a significant spike in the demand for less-lethal products and that the less-lethal market will be one of the faster growing segments of the security market over the next decade. We plan to respond to this demand for less-lethal products through the serial production and distribution of the Byrna® SD and expansion of the Byrna product line.
On January 10, 2023, the Company created a new joint venture with Fusady S.A. ("Fusady") located in Uruguay, to expand the Company's operations and presence in South American markets. The Company holds 51% of the stock in the joint venture entity, Byrna LATAM, and the remaining 49% of stock in Byrna LATAM is held by Fusady.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three months ended February 29, 2024 as compared to three months ended February 28, 2023:
Net Revenue
Revenues were $16.7 million in the first quarter of 2024 which represents an increase of $8.2 million as compared to the prior year period revenues of $8.4 million. Due to transformational shift in our advertising strategy in September 2023, our direct-to-consumer revenues through our website and Amazon for the three months ended February 29, 2024 increased $6.7 million to $12.8 million from $6.1 million in prior year period. Sales to our domestic dealers/distributors for the three months ended February 29, 2024 also increased $0.7 million to $2.2 million from $1.5 million in the prior year period. Sales to customers in Canada also slightly increased $0.1 million to $0.5 million for the three months ended February 29, 2024 from $0.4 million in the prior year period. In addition, Fox Labs, which we acquired on May 25, 2022, increased sales by $0.1 million to 2024for the three months ended February 29, 2024 from $0.3 million in the prior year period. International sales (other than Canada), which are characterized by infrequent but very large orders, increased by $0.6 million to $0.8 million during the first quarter of 2024 from $0.2 million in the prior year period.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold was $7.0 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared to $3.2 million in the prior year period. This $3.9 million increase is due to the increase in sales volumes.
Gross Profit
Gross profit is calculated as total revenue less cost of goods sold and gross margin is calculated as gross profit divided by total revenue. Included as cost of goods sold are costs associated with the production and procurement of products, such as labor and overhead, inbound freight costs, manufacturing depreciation, purchasing and receiving costs, and inspection costs. Gross profit was $9.6 million in the first quarter of 2024, or 57.9% of net revenue, as compared to gross profit of approximately $5.2 million, or 62.4% of net revenue, in the prior year period. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of sales is primarily due to the prior year period included a one-time adjustment for higher absorption of fixed costs than our typical quarters.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses were $9.8 million in the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $2.6 million, as compared to the prior year period expenses of $7.2 million. The increase is due to higher marketing expenses of $1.9 million, $0.5 million due to variable expenses which increased in proportion to increase sales volume, $0.4 million of higher accrued bonus expense driven by improved financial performance and $0.3 of higher professional fees. This increase was offset by a $0.5 million decrease in stock-based compensation.
Other Income (Expense)
We recorded $0.3 million of interest income during the first quarter of 2024 compared to $0.1 of interest income in the first quarter of 2023. We recorded a loss of less than $0.1 million from our South American joint venture investment during the first quarter of 2024 compared to $0.2 million for the first quarter of 2023.
Income Tax Provision
For the three months ended February 29, 2024, the Company recorded a nominal amount of income tax expense. For the three months ended February 28, 2023 the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $0.1 million. For the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the effective tax rate was 0.0% and 2.7%, respectively. The Company’s tax rate differs from the statutory rate of 21.0% due to the effects of state taxes net of federal benefit, the foreign tax rate differential as a result of Byrna South Africa, effects of permanent non-deductible expenses, the recording of a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets generated in the current period, and other effects.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to providing financial measurements based on generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), we provide an additional financial metric that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP (non-GAAP) with presenting non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA. Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for financial and operational decision making, for planning and forecasting purposes and to evaluate our financial performance. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure helps us to identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of certain expenses that we exclude in the calculations of the non-GAAP financial measure.
Accordingly, we believe that this non-GAAP financial measure reflects our ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in the business and provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects.
This non-GAAP financial measure does not replace the presentation of our GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations in the use of non-GAAP measures, because they do not include all the expenses that must be included under GAAP and because they involve the exercise of judgment concerning exclusions of items from the comparable non-GAAP financial measure. In addition, other companies may use other non-GAAP measures to evaluate their performance, or may calculate non-GAAP measures differently, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measure as a tool for comparison.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net (loss) income as reported in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income excluding the impact of (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) income tax provision (benefit); (iii) interest income (expense); (iv) stock-based compensation expense, (v) impairment loss and (vi) one-time, non-recurring other expenses or income. Our Adjusted EBITDA measure eliminates potential differences in performance caused by variations in capital structures (affecting finance costs), tax positions, the cost and age of tangible assets (affecting relative depreciation expense) and the extent to which intangible assets are identifiable (affecting relative amortization expense). We also exclude certain one-time and non-cash costs. Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net (loss) income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is as follows (in thousands):

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
See Note 5, “Recent Accounting Guidance,” in the Notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this report for a discussion of recently issued and adopted accounting standards.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Our condensed consolidated financial statements are based on the selection and application of significant accounting policies, which require management to make significant estimates and assumptions.

Not applicable.
| CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of February 29, 2024 pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company 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. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that material information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that as of February 29, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes that occurred during the first quarter of 2024 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
| LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
In the normal course of business, the Company occasionally becomes involved in various legal proceedings. The results of any such proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty because such matters are inherently uncertain. Significant damages or penalties may be sought in some matters, and some matters may require years to resolve. In our opinion, at this time, any liability from such proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the business or financial condition of the Company.
| RISK FACTORS |
Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this report include the “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 14, 2024, as amended on March 29, 2024. There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our 2023 Form 10-K.

These condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023 include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”); however, such information reflects all adjustments consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The unaudited 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 the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2023. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the results of its operations for the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, and its cash flows for the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

| Use of Estimates [Text Block] |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and any such differences may be material to our condensed consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates include assumptions about stock-based compensation expense, valuation for deferred tax assets, incremental borrowing rate on leases, valuation and carrying value of goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets, useful life of long-lived assets, inventory reserves, and allowance for credit losses. |

| Accounting Standards Update and Change in Accounting Principle [Text Block] |
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"). ASUs not discussed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the financial statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement In 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016- 13”). The guidance changes the impairment model used to measure credit losses for most financial assets. A new forward-looking expected credit loss model will replace the existing incurred credit loss model and will impact the Company’s accounts receivables. This is expected to generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on December 1, 2023 and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Accounting Pronouncement Issued but Not Adopted In 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 – Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). This update standardizes categories for the effective tax rate reconciliation, requires disaggregation of income taxes and additional income tax-related disclosures. This update is required to be effective for the Company for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2023-09 will have on its financial statements and disclosures.
ASU 2023-07: Segment Reporting Topic 280 - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This update requires expanded annual and interim disclosures for significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. This update will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and is to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2023-07 will have on its financial statements and disclosures and believes it will not a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
On March 21, 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2024-01, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards, which provides illustrative guidance to help entities determine whether profits interest and similar awards should be accounted for as share-based payment arrangements within the scope of FASB Accounting Standards Codification (FASB ASC) 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. The Company believe it will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

| Goodwill Disclosure [Text Block] |
Goodwill resulting from a business combination is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances occur that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The Company has the option to perform a qualitative assessment over goodwill when events occur or circumstances change that would, more likely than not, reduce the fair value of a reporting unit or to bypass the qualitative assessment in any period and proceed directly to performing the quantitative goodwill impairment test. If the Company concludes, based on the qualitative assessment, that the carrying value of a reporting unit would more likely than not exceed its fair value, a quantitative assessment is performed which is based upon a comparison of the reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. The fair values used in this evaluation are estimated by the Company based upon future discounted cash flow projections for the reporting unit. An impairment charge is recognized for any amount by which the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its fair value.
The Company performs its annual review for impairment during the third quarter of each year. The Company assesses goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level, which is defined as an operating segment or one level below an operating segment, referred to as a component. The Company’s operations constitute a single reporting unit and goodwill is assessed for impairment at the Company as a whole. At August 31, 2023, the Company determined that there was impairment of goodwill. |

| Revenue, Deferred Revenue and Accounts Receivable [Text Block] |
The Company generates most of its revenue through e-commerce portals to consumers, as well as wholesale distribution of its products and accessories to dealers/distributors and retail stores. The Company also sells products to large end-users such as private security companies and law enforcement agencies. Since winding down the legacy 40mm business in 2019 and 2020, the Company does not manufacture or sell any products regulated by the BATF or for military applications. Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of goods to the customer, which generally occurs when title to goods is passed and risk of loss transfers to the customer. Depending on the contract terms, transfer of control is upon shipment of goods to or upon the customer’s pick-up of the goods. Payment terms to customers other than e-commerce customers are generally 30-60 days for established customers, whereas new wholesale and large end-user customers have prepaid terms for their first order. The amount of revenue recognized is net of returns and discounts that the Company offers to its customers. Products purchased include a standard warranty that cannot be purchased separately. This allows customers to return defective products for repair or replacement within year of sale. The Company also sells an extended warranty for the same terms over three years. The extended 3-year warranty can be purchased separately from the product and is classified as a service warranty. Since a warranty for the first year after sale is included and non-separable from all launcher purchases, the Company considers this extended warranty to represent a service obligation during the second and third years after sale. Therefore, the Company accumulates billings of these transactions on the balance sheet as deferred revenue, to be recognized on a straight-line basis during the second and third year after sale. The Company recognizes an estimated reserve based on its analysis of historical experience, and an evaluation of current market conditions.
The Company offers e-commerce customers a 14-day money-back guarantee, which allows for a full refund of the purchase price, excluding shipping charges, within 14 days from the date of delivery. The right of return creates a variable component to the transaction price and needs to be considered for any possible constraints. The Company estimates returns using the expected value method, as there will likely be a range of potential return amounts. The Company’s reserve for returns under the 14-day money back guarantee for the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023 were immaterial.
The Company does not offer a money-back guarantee to dealers or retailers. These customers may request a return or credit for unforeseen reasons or who may have agreed discounts or allowances to be netted from amounts invoiced. According, the Company reserves for returns, discounts and allowances based on past performance and on agreement terms and reports revenue net of the estimated reserve. The Company's reserve for returns, discounts, and allowances for the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023 were immaterial.
The Company accounts for shipping and handling activities related to contracts with customers as costs to fulfill the promise to transfer the associated products. Shipping and handling costs associated with the distribution of finished products to customers, are recorded in operating expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss and are recognized when the product is shipped to the customer.
Included as cost of goods sold are costs associated with the production and procurement of products, such as labor and overhead, inbound freight costs, manufacturing depreciation, purchasing and receiving costs, and inspection costs.
Accounts Receivable
The Company records accounts receivables due from dealers/distributers, large end-users such as retail stores, security companies, and law enforcement agencies. Accounts receivable, net of allowances, was $1.5 million, $2.9 million and $5.9 million as of February 29, 2024, November 30, 2023 and November 30, 2022, respectively.
Allowance for Expected Credit Losses
The Company estimates the balance of its allowance for expected credit losses. In determining the amount of the allowance for credit losses, the Company considers historical collectability based on past due status and makes judgments about the creditworthiness of customers based on ongoing credit evaluations. The Company also considers customer-specific information, current market conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. Account balances are written off against the allowance when it is determined that the receivable will not be recovered. As of February 29, 2024, November 30, 2023 and November 30, 2022, the total allowance for credit losses recorded was $0.5 million, $0.5 million and less than $0.0 million, respectively.
Deferred Revenue
The balance of deferred revenue, which relate to unfulfilled e-commerce orders and amounts to be recognized under extended 3-year service warranty as of February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023 was $2.7 million and $1.3 million, respectively, and $1.9 million and $0.8 million as of November 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The amount recognized in revenue for the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023 was less than $0.1 million for both periods.

| Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Text Block] |
2020 Plan On October 23, 2020, the Company's Board of Directors approved and on November 19, 2020, the stockholders approved the Byrna Technologies Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”). The aggregate number of shares of common stock available for issuance in connection with options and other awards granted under the 2020 Plan is 3,800,000 shares. The 2020 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board. The Compensation Committee determines the persons to whom options to purchase shares of common stock, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and restricted or unrestricted shares of common stock may be granted. Persons eligible to receive awards under the 2020 Plan are employees, officers, directors, consultants, advisors and other individual service providers of the Company. Awards are at the discretion of the Compensation Committee.
The Company accounts for all stock-based payment awards granted to employees and non-employees as stock-based compensation expense at their grant date fair value. The Company’s stock-based payments include stock options, RSUs, and incentive warrants. The measurement date for employee awards is the date of grant, and stock-based compensation costs are recognized as expense over the employees’ requisite service period, on a straight-line basis. The measurement date for non-employee awards is generally the date the services were completed, resulting in financial reporting period adjustments to stock-based compensation during either the expected term or the contractual term. Stock-based compensation costs for non-employees are recognized as expense over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur.
The fair value of each grant is estimated on the date of grant by using either the Black-Scholes, Binomial Lattice, or the quoted stock price on the date of grant, unless the awards are subject to market conditions in which case the Company uses the Monte Carlo simulation model. Due to the Company’s limited history, the expected term of the Company’s stock options granted to employees has been determined utilizing the method as prescribed by the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin, Topic 14. The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. Expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends on common stock and does not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense Stock-based compensation costs are recognized as expense over the employee's requisite service period, on a straight-line basis. Total stock-based compensation expense was $0.9 million and $1.5 million for the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, respectively. Total stock-based compensation expense was recorded in Operating expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.
Restricted Stock Units
During the three months ended February 29, 2024, the Company granted 600,000 of the RSU's with a “double trigger” for vesting based on stock price and time, as follows: (1) -third of the RSUs will be triggered when the Company’s stock trades above $6.00 on a 20-day VWAP, the second -third of the RSUs will be triggered when the Company’s stock trades above $9.00 on a 20-day VWAP, and the final -third of the RSUs will be triggered when the stock trades above $12.00 on a 20-day VWAP and (2) the employee must remain employed by the Company for three years from the effective date for the RSUs to vest. In addition, the Company also granted 97,974 time-based RSU's during the three months ended February 29, 2024. Stock-based compensation expense for the RSUs for the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023 was $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively.
The assumptions that the Company used to determine the grant-date fair value of RSU's granted with a double trigger for the three months ended February 29, 2024 were as follows:
As of February 29, 2024, there was $2.2 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to unvested RSUs which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average of 1.6 years.
The following table summarizes the RSU activity during the three months ended February 29, 2024:
Stock Options The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense for options granted to its employees and directors of $0.4 million and $0.5 million during the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, respectively.

| Financial Instruments Disclosure [Text Block] |
The Company is exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial instruments. This note describes the Company’s objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them.
The Company held its cash balances within banks in the U.S. in U.S. dollars and with banks in South Africa in U.S. dollars and South African rand. The Company’s operations are conducted in the U.S. and South Africa. The value of the South African rand against the U.S. dollar may fluctuate with changes in economic conditions.
During the three months ended February 29, 2024, in comparison to the prior year period, the U.S. dollar was weaker in relation to the South African rand, and upon the translation of the Company’s subsidiaries’ revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities held in South African rand and the Company recorded a translation adjustment loss of $0.1 million and $0.6 million related to the South African rand during the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, respectively.
The Company’s South African subsidiary revenues, cost of goods sold, operating costs and capital expenditures are denominated in South African rand. Consequently, fluctuations in the U.S. dollar exchange rate against the South African rand increases the volatility of sales, cost of goods sold and operating costs and overall net earnings when translated into U.S. dollars. The Company is not using any forward or option contracts to fix the foreign exchange rates. Using a 10% fluctuation in the U.S. exchange rate, the impact on the loss and stockholders’ equity is not material.
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and the loan receivable from Byrna LATAM. The Company maintains cash with high credit quality financial institutions located in the U.S. and South Africa. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances with financial institutions in the U.S. in excess of amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
The Company is exposed to credit losses on accounts receivable balances. The Company uses a simplified approach to calculate a general provision for credit losses. An allowance is calculated for each aging “bucket,” based on the risk profile of that bucket. The Company revisit the reserve periodically, but no less than quarterly, with the same analytical approach in order to determine if the allowance needs to be increased or decreased, based calculation of each aging bucket.
The Company loaned $1.6 million to Byrna LATAM, which was formed in January 2023 as a joint venture in South America. The Company will determine if an estimate for a credit loss on this loan is needed by considering the financial position of Byrna LATAM, the current economic environment, collections on our accounts receivable balances with Byrna LATAM, as well reasonableness and supportable forecasts to support the payment of this loan. The Company will review these factors quarterly to determine if any adjustments are needed.
