SOW GOOD INC.

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Organization and Nature of Business

Effective January 21, 2021, we changed our name from Black Ridge Oil & Gas, Inc. (business acquired with our October 1, 2020 acquisition of S-FDF, LLC) to Sow Good Inc. (“SOWG,” “Sow Good,” or the “Company”) to pursue the production of freeze-dried fruits and vegetables, a business we later expanded to include freeze-dried candy. At that time, our common stock began to be quoted on the OTCQB under the trading symbol “SOWG,” from the former trading symbol “ANFC.” Prior to April 2, 2012, Black Ridge Oil & Gas was known as Ante5, Inc., a publicly traded company since July 1, 2010. From October 2010 through August 2019, Ante5, Inc. and Black Ridge Oil & Gas, Inc. participated in the acquisition and development of oil and gas leases.

On May 5, 2021, the Company announced the launch of our direct-to-consumer freeze-dried consumer packaged goods (CPG) food brand, Sow Good. Sow Good launched its first line of non-GMO products including six ready-to-make smoothies and nine snacks. On July 23, 2021, we launched six new gluten-free granola products under the Sow Good brand. 

In the first quarter of 2023, the Company launched a freeze-dried candy product line with a 9-nine SKU offering that is projected to continue being a major driver of growth. After launching our freeze-dried candy product line we discontinued our smoothie, snack and granola products. During the second quarter of 2023, we completed the construction of our second and third freeze driers to facilitate the increased production demands for our recently launched candy products. The significant and rising demand for our freeze-dried candy products has led us to begin construction of our fourth, fifth, and sixth freeze driers, which we expect to be completed in the first quarter of 2024.

Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

The interim condensed financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and stated in US dollars, have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to not make the information presented misleading.

These statements reflect all adjustments, which in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. Except as otherwise disclosed, all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. It is suggested that these interim condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, which were included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports.

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 and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current period.

SOW GOOD INC.

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Cash in Excess of FDIC Limits

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. Accounts are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000 under current regulations. The Company had $1,745,520 of cash in excess of FIDC insured limits as of  September 30, 2023, and has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement," which requires the measurement of certain financial instruments at fair value. The Company's financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, and accounts receivable, which approximate fair value due to their short-term nature, and Term Loans, which are typically carried at amortized cost. For financial instruments or investments that are required to be reported at fair value under GAAP, the applicable guidance for fair value measurement would require the Company to include the determination of the appropriate fair value hierarchy level for each instrument. The fair value hierarchy levels consist of the following:

Level 1: Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets or Liabilities - This level represents the highest degree of observability, where fair values are based on quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2: Inputs Other Than Quoted Prices Included within Level 1 - Fair values in this level are based on inputs other than quoted market prices but are still observable, such as quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities, or inputs derived from market data.

Level 3: Unobservable Inputs - This level includes fair values for which there are no observable inputs and relies on the reporting entity's own assumptions and estimates. These fair values are considered the least reliable and most subjective.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at the lower of cost or estimated net recoverable amount. The cost of property, plant and equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method based on the lesser of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the lease term based on the following life expectancy:

	(In years)
Software	3, or over the life of the agreement
Website	3
Office equipment	5
Furniture and fixtures	5
Machinery and equipment	7 - 10
Leasehold improvements	Fully extended lease-term

Repairs and maintenance expenditures are charged to operations as incurred. Major improvements and replacements, which extend the useful life of an asset, are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining estimated useful life of the asset. When assets are retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are eliminated, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. Depreciation was $306,092 and $223,887 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. A total of $78,486 and $21,841 of the depreciation expense was allocated to inventory overhead, resulting in $227,606 and $202,046 of depreciation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for possible impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable or is impaired. Recoverability is assessed using undiscounted cash flows based upon historical results and current projections of earnings before interest and taxes. Impairment is measured using discounted cash flows of future operating results based upon a rate that corresponds to the cost of capital. Impairments are recognized in operating results to the extent that carrying value exceeds discounted cash flows of future operations.

Our intellectual property is comprised of indefinite-lived brand names acquired and have been assigned an indefinite life as we currently anticipate that these brand names will contribute cash flows to the Company perpetually. We evaluate the recoverability of intangible assets periodically by taking into account events or circumstances that may warrant revised estimates of useful lives or that indicate the asset may be impaired.

Inventory

Inventory, consisting of raw materials, material overhead, labor, and manufacturing overhead, are stated at the average cost or net realizable value and consists of the following:

	September 30,		December 31,
	2023		2022
Finished goods	$	369,227	$	384,241
Packaging materials		485,840		416,663
Work in progress		633,473		864,460
Raw materials		752,130		307,515
Total inventory	$	2,240,670	$	1,972,879

During the nine months ending September 30, 2023, the Company wrote down $2,075,080 of non-candy freeze-dried inventory to pivot exclusively to its better selling candy products.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC” 606”). Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its freeze-dried food products, in accordance with a five-step model in which the Company evaluates the transfer of promised goods or services and recognizes revenue when customers obtain control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for the arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company has elected, as a practical expedient, to account for the shipping and handling as fulfillment costs, rather than as a separate performance obligation. Revenue is reported net of applicable provisions for discounts, returns and allowances. Methodologies for determining these provisions are dependent on customer pricing and promotional practices. The Company records reductions to revenue for estimated product returns and pricing adjustments in the same period that the related revenue is recorded. These estimates are based on industry-based historical data, historical sales returns, if any, analysis of credit memo data, and other factors known at the time.

Customer Concentration

For the three-month period ended  September 30, 2023, one large retail customer accounted for 46% of our revenues and one food distributor accounted for 20% of our revenues. For the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, two large retail customers accounted for 37% and 25% of our revenues and one large food distributor accounted for 18% of our revenues. Our top five customers accounted for 86% and 91% of our revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

For the nine-month period ended  September 30, 2023, one large retail customer accounted for 44% of our revenues and one food distributor accounted for 20% of our revenues. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, two food distributor customers accounted for 30% each, of our revenues. Our top five customers accounted for 82% of our revenues during both nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are carried at their estimated collectible amounts. Trade accounts receivable are periodically evaluated for collectability based on past credit history with customers and their current financial condition. The Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $1,894 as of  September 30, 2023. 

Supplier Concentration

For the three month period ended  September 30, 2023, two large candy suppliers accounted for 17% and 10% each of our purchases from vendors. The Company considers these vendors to be critical suppliers of candy for our freeze-dried candy production. For the three month period ended September 30, 2022 no suppliers represented greater than 10% or more of our purchases from vendors. 

For the nine-month period ended  September 30, 2023, one large candy supplier accounted for 18% of our purchases from vendors. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 no vendors accounted for 10% or more of our purchases from vendors. The Company is actively working to diversify its supplier base to mitigate risks associated with vendor concentration. Efforts are made to establish relationships with new suppliers and explore alternative sourcing options.

Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an “as if converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the periods presented, potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share.

Income Taxes

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 Stock Compensation (ASC 718) and Equity-Based Payments to Non-employees pursuant to ASC 2018-07 (ASC 2018-07). All transactions in which the consideration provided in exchange for the purchase of goods or services consists of the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty’s performance is complete or the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached because of sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance. Stock-based compensation was $524,696 and $731,499 consisting of $399,436 and $651,501 of stock options expense, using the Black-Scholes options pricing model and an effective term of 6 to 6.5 years based on the weighted average of the vesting periods and the stated term of the option grants and the discount rate on 5 to 7 year U.S. Treasury securities at the grant date, incurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $125,229 and $79,998 of expense related to shares of common stock issued to officers and consultants for services rendered in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued five Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs) related to financial instruments – credit losses. The ASUs issued were: (1) in June 2016, ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASC 326”): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” (2) in November 2018, ASU 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses,” (3) in April 2019, ASU 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments,” (4) in May 2019, ASU 2019-05, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief” and (5) in November 2019, ASU 2019-11, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses.” Additionally, in February and March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-02, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (ASC 842): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119 and Update to SEC Section on Effective Date Related to Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (ASC 842)” and ASU 2020-03, “Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments,” respectively, which include amendments to ASC 326.

ASU 2016-13 is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. ASU 2018-19 clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of the credit losses standard, but rather, should be accounted for in accordance with the leasing standard. ASU 2019-04 clarifies and improves areas of guidance related to the recently issued standards on financial instruments – credit losses, derivatives and hedging, and financial instruments. ASU 2019-05 provides entities that have certain instruments within the scope of ASC Subtopic 326-20, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses—Measured at Amortized Cost, with an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option in Subtopic 825- 10, Financial Instruments—Overall. ASU 2019-11 clarifies guidance around how to report expected recoveries among other narrow-scope and technical improvements. ASU 2020-02 adds a SEC paragraph pursuant to the 7 Table of Contents issuance of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119 on loan losses to FASB Codification ASC 326 and updates the SEC section of the Codification for the change in the effective date of ASC 842. ASU 2020-03 makes narrow-scope improvements to various aspects of the financial instrument guidance as part of the FASB’s ongoing Codification improvement project aimed at clarifying specific areas of accounting guidance to help avoid unintended application. The Company adopted the applicable guidance in ASU 2016-13, ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-11, ASU 2020-02 and ASU 2020-03 on January 1, 2023, and the adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Our financial assets are limited to trade receivables. We estimate our reserve based on historical loss information. We believe that historical loss information is a reasonable base on which to determine expected credit losses for trade receivables held at the reporting date because the composition of the trade receivables at the reporting date is consistent with that used in developing the historical credit-loss percentages. However, the Company will continue to monitor and adjust the historical loss rates to reflect the effects of current conditions and forecasted changes. 

No new accounting pronouncements, issued or effective during the period ended September 30, 2023, have had or are expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Note 3 – Going Concern

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had an accumulated retained deficit of $60,068,008 and net losses for both the quarter and year to date periods ended September 30, 2023, along with $2,096,672 of cash on hand, and working capital of $ 3,145,708. We are too early in our development to be able to project operating results with the necessary level of certainty; our plans for growth include significant capital expenditures, which we may not be able to fund through operating cash flows; therefore, we may not have sufficient funds to sustain our operations for the next twelve months while also executing our plan for growth. These factors raise substantial doubt about our Company's ability to continue as a going concern. 

During the current third quarter of 2023, the Company achieved a significant improvement in its operating results. This improvement was primarily driven by increased sales of our freeze-dried candy to large retail customers, coupled with increased margins in the third quarter of 2023, related to our pivot away from slower selling products to focus on our customers demand for freeze-dried candy. 

Management has developed and implemented a comprehensive plan to improve the Company's financial position. In the third quarter of 2023, to support its ongoing operations, the Company secured additional capital of $3,675,000 through a share offering. Management plans to use this additional capital investment to reduce our production constraints through additional freeze-driers and necessary warehouse space. Our ability to scale production and distribution capabilities and further increase the value of our brands is largely dependent on our success in raising additional capital.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 8 – Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a finance lease or operating lease at inception and recognizes right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities at commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term.  For operating leases, our right-of-use assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term with rent expense recorded to operating expenses.  The depreciable life of related leasehold improvements is based on the shorter of the useful life or the lease term.  

The Company leases its 20,945 square foot facility under a non-cancelable real property lease agreement that expires on August 31, 2025, with two five-year options to extend, at a monthly lease rate of $10,036, with approximately a 3% annual escalation of lease payments commencing September 15, 2021. The facility lease contains provisions requiring payment of property taxes, utilities, insurance, maintenance and other occupancy costs applicable to the leased premise. As the Company’s leases do not provide implicit discount rates, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate for the lease at the time of commencement was 5.75%.

On July 1, 2023, the Company leased additional warehouse space in Irving, Texas, of approximately 9,000 feet under a 37-month lease at a rate of $8,456 per month, with approximately a 4% annual escalation of lease payments. The facility lease contains provisions requiring payment of property taxes, utilities, insurance, maintenance and other occupancy costs applicable to the leased premise. As the Company’s leases do not provide implicit discount rates, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate for the lease at the time of commencement was 8%.

The components of lease expense were as follows:

The Company may redeem outstanding warrants prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.01 per share, provided that the volume weighted average sale price per share of Common Stock equals or exceeds $9.00 per share for thirty (30) consecutive trading days ending on the third business day prior to the mailing of notice of such redemption. The estimated value using the Black-Scholes Pricing Model, based on a volatility rate of 140% and a weighted average call option value of $2.23, was $139,341. The warrants are being expensed over the life of the loans.

The table below includes information related to stock options and warrants that were outstanding at the end of each respective three and nine-month period ended September 30 2023, and 2022. For periods in which we incurred a net loss, these amounts are not included in weighted average dilutive shares because their impact would be anti-dilutive. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, using the Treasury Stock method to convert potentially dilutive shares added an additional 1,359,310 shares to our diluted weighted average shares.

Note 15 – Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $0, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 0% for each period. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 is primarily due to the full valuation allowance against the Company’s net deferred tax assets.

The Company regularly evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets and establishes a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be utilized. Because of our cumulative losses, substantially all of the deferred tax assets have been fully offset by a valuation allowance as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Cautionary Statements

This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. We also provide forward-looking statements in other materials we release to the public, as well as public oral statements. We are including the following discussion to inform our existing and potential security holders generally of some of the risks and uncertainties that can affect our company and to take advantage of the “safe harbor” protection for forward-looking statements that applicable federal securities law affords.

From time to time, our management or persons acting on our behalf may make forward-looking statements to inform existing and potential security holders about our company. All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this report regarding our financial position, business strategy, plans and objectives of management for future operations and industry conditions are forward-looking statements. When used in this report, forward-looking statements are generally accompanied by terms or phrases such as “estimate,” “project,” “forecast,” “predict,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “target,” “plan,” “ongoing,” “intend,” “seek,” “goal,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “may” or other words and similar expressions that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. Items making assumptions regarding actual or potential future sales, market size, collaborations, trends or operating results also constitute such forward-looking statements.

  Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and important factors (many of which are beyond our control) that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements include the following:

● volatility or decline of our stock price;

● low trading volume and illiquidity of our common stock;

● potential fluctuation in quarterly results;

● inability to maintain adequate liquidity to meet our financial obligations;

● failure to obtain sufficient sales and distributions for our freeze-dried product offerings;

● supply chain disruption and delay;

● transportation, labor, and raw material cost increases;

● litigation, disputes and legal claims involving outside parties; and

● risks related to our ability to be traded on the OTCQB and meeting trading requirements

We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and assumptions about future events. While our management considers these expectations and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, regulatory and other risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from expected results in these statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made.

Therefore, readers are urged not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect any event or circumstance that may arise after the date of this report, other than as may be required by applicable law or regulation. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in our reports filed with the SEC which attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, results of operation and cash flows. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary materially from those expected or projected. These forward-looking statements may be affected by underlying assumptions that may prove inaccurate or incomplete, or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties, including those described in this section and in the Item 1A. Risk Factors section in our 2022 Form 10-K.

Overview and Outlook

Sow Good is a trailblazing U.S.-based freeze-dried candy and snack manufacturer dedicated to providing consumers with innovative and explosively flavorful freeze-dried treats. Sow Good has harnessed the power of our proprietary freeze drying technology and product-specialized manufacturing facility to transform traditional candy into a novel and exciting everyday confectionaries subcategory that we call freeze-dried candy. We began commercializing our freeze-dried candy products in the first quarter of 2023, and as of September 30, 2023, we have twelve stock keeping units (“SKUs”) in our Sow Good Candy line of treats and eight SKUs in our Sow Good Crunch Cream line. We sell our treats across retail, wholesale distributors, and online e-commerce channels, which comprise 57%, 24%, and 9% of our sales through the second quarter of 2023, respectively. As of September 30, 2023, our treats are offered for sale in over 5,857 brick-and-mortar retail outlets in the United States, Canada, and Israel. The rapid demand growth for our delectable treats since their retail debut in March 2023 highlights our consumers’ excitement for our novel and explosively flavorful treats that “satisfy your sweet tooth in fewer bites.”

Sow Good is led by co-founders Claudia and Ira Goldfarb, who have over a decade of manufacturing experience with an extensive freeze-drying background, dedication to job creation, and proven track record of identifying and growing niche trends into everyday categories. Under their leadership, revenues have grown from $428,132 during the year ended December 31, 2022 to $5,034,203 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023.

We believe the candy category is stale, repetitive, and in need of revitalization to reengage and captivate consumers seeking innovative ways to satisfy their sweet cravings. We see our market opportunity as existing at the intersection of two burgeoning categories: freeze-dried candy and non-chocolate confections. According to the NCA, the non-chocolate confections market grew 13.8% in sales in 2022, exceeding $15 billion, and according to Grand View Research is forecasted to grow at a compounded annual growth rate of 5.8% from 2023 to 2030. We believe the nascent freeze-dried candy market is poised for exponential growth given increasing consumer preferences for novel and distinctive candy products. According to the NCA, approximately 61% of shoppers occasionally or frequently seek out products they have never purchased before. Given our exceptional performance in retail launches, surging customer demand, and increasing production capacity, we are confident that we can catapult freeze-dried candy from a trendy spark on social media to a stable, top-performing consumer confectionary in retail.

Our products have launched in retailers nationwide from convenience and grocery stores to big-box retailers, such as Five Below, Target, Hy-Vee, FYE, Big Lots, Snackmagic, and Misfits Market/Imperfect Foods. In addition, we sell a substantial portion of our products through distributors such as Redstone Foods, C.B. Distributors and Alpine Foods. Video reviews of Sow Good’s products that are organically generated by TikTok users have amassed over 4 million views as of September 30, 2023. Many of our existing customers launched with a limited number of SKUs, which are now significantly outpacing initial sales projections. We believe there is a significant growth opportunity in increasing our shelf presence, SKU portfolio, and number of stores with our existing customers.  As we scale production, we will be able to increase the availability of our products to existing customers in current locations and add distribution to more of their stores, while also broadening our SKU portfolio offerings. Bolstering our distribution will be a key growth driver for Sow Good, so more of our products are available wherever our consumers choose to shop, whether it be a retail store, convenience store, or directly online. To further enhance our visibility in current stores and support our retail launches with existing customers, while strengthening our brand name, we are introducing our product displays with distinctive designs and product highlights to educate new consumers on the advantages of freeze-dried treats. We believe this strategy will capture the attention of new consumers, further educate and attract current consumers, and ultimately increase sales for our retailers.

Our highly differentiated omnichannel distribution strategy has three key components: retailers, e-commerce, and distributors. In aggregate, this omnichannel strategy provides us with a diverse set of consumers and customer partners, leading to a larger TAM opportunity than is normally available to products sold only in grocery stores, along with an opportunity to develop a direct relationship with our customers at our website, www.thisissowgood.com. This platform is already set up but with some items set as out of stock until we have additional production capacity.

Going Concern Uncertainty

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had an accumulated retained deficit of $60,068,008 and net losses for both the quarter and year to date periods ended September 30, 2023, along with $2,096,672 of cash on hand, and working capital of $ 3,145,708. We are too early in our development to be able to project operating results with the necessary level of certainty; our plans for growth include significant capital expenditures, which we may not be able to fund through operating cash flows; therefore, we may not have sufficient funds to sustain our operations for the next twelve months while also executing our plan for growth. These factors raise substantial doubt about our Company's ability to continue as a going concern. 

During the current third quarter of 2023, the Company achieved a significant improvement in its operating results. This improvement was primarily driven by increased sales of our freeze-dried candy to large retail customers, coupled with increased margins in the third quarter of 2023, related to our pivot away from slower selling products to focus on our customers demand for freeze-dried candy. 

Management has developed and implemented a comprehensive plan to improve the Company's financial position. In the third quarter of 2023, to support its ongoing operations, the Company secured additional capital of $3,675,000 through a share offering. Management plans to use this additional capital investment to reduce our production constraints through additional freeze-driers and necessary warehouse space. Our ability to scale production and distribution capabilities and further increase the value of our brands is largely dependent on our success in raising additional capital.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Revenues

Revenues of $ 5,034,203 for the three months ended September 30, 2023, consist primarily of online freeze-dried candy product sales, compared with $ 87,741 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $ 4,946,462, or 5,638%. This growth is attributed to our pivot to sales of our freeze-dried candy and the expansion of our business-to-business sales during the current period, compared to the same period in the prior year, and the additional capacity for production after the addition of two new freeze driers in the second quarter of 2023.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $2,717,254, compared to $65,195 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $2,652,059, or 4,068%. Cost of goods sold, in the third quarter of 2023 primarily consisted of material costs and labor on the sales of freeze-dried candy products, while the third quarter of 2022 mainly consisted of costs and labor related to our food product lines. Our gross profit margin was 49% during the quarter, compared to 26% during the comparative period of 2022. The increased profit margin is due to higher margins on candy versus our food product lines, which are now discontinued.

General and administrative expenses

Salaries and benefits included stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 of $140,759 compared to $130,868 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease of $15,109, or 9.7%. Stock-based compensation consists of stock options expense of $140,759 and $130,868 incurred in the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $25,000 of expense related to shares of common stock issued to officers and consultants for services rendered in the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in salaries and benefits was primarily due to increased personnel necessitated by our rapid growth.

Professional services

Professional services were $294,720 for the 2023 period, compared to $61,209 for the 2022 period, an increase of $233,511 or 381%. The increase was primarily due to advisory fees related to raising capital for future expansion plans.

Interest expense decreased by $380,354.0, or 99.1%, primarily due to the decreased amortization of warrants issued in-the-money on loans from our officers and directors in the current period.

Net loss

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $333,984, compared to net loss $1,647,272 during the three months ended September 30, 2022, a positive change of $1,981,256, or 120%. The positive change was due primarily to increased gross profit of $2,294,403 and decreased interest expense of $380,354, related to the amortization of warrants issued as a debt discount, partially offset by increased operating expenses of $657,109.

Net cash used in operating activities was $3,328,516 and $4,149,046 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, a period over period decrease of $820,530. Cash used in operations during the current nine month period included $1,197,608 of increases in accounts receivable, all of which were due within 30 days, and $2,342,871 of increases in cash paid for inventory, partially offset by increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses. The decrease in cash used in operating activities is due to increased gross margins, partially offset by increased non-cash items impacting our net operating loss.

Net cash used in investing activities were $1,326,276 and $2,272,066 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, a period over period decrease of $945,790. Cash used in investing activities were comprised of $1,326,276 of fixed asset additions, as we completed our 2^nd and 3^rd freezers and finalized our office leasehold improvements during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $2,266,137 of fixed asset purchases during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Net cash provided by financing activities were $6,475,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which was comprised of cash proceeds from the issuance of 735,000 shares of common stock of $3,675,000 and $2,400,000 of debt financing received from our officers and directors and $400,000 received from others under the same terms, compared to $4,450,000, comprised of $3,870,000 of debt financing received from our officers and directors and $580,000 received from others under the same terms, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Satisfaction of our cash obligations for the next 12 months

As of September 30, 2023, our balance of cash was $ 2,096,672 and we had total working capital of $ 3,145,708. Based on projections of cash expenditures in the Company’s current business plan, the cash on hand as of September 30, 2023 would be sufficient to sustain operations over the next year. We expect to incur significant costs related to the development and operation of our freeze-dried candy business. Our plan for satisfying our cash requirements for the next twelve months is through cash on hand and additional financing in the form of equity or debt as needed. Our ability to scale production and distribution capabilities and further increase the value of our brands is largely dependent on our success in raising additional capital. 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our management’s discussion and analysis of financial conditions and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements required us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate these estimates and judgments. We base our estimates on our historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates and assumptions form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results and experiences may differ materially from these estimates.

Our critical accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 of the footnotes to our financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, and Note 2 of the footnotes to the financial statements provided in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.
