Promissory Notes
Upon consummation of the acquisition of the T&L Creative Salads business in December 2021, the Company executed a $3 million promissory note with the sellers, which consist of Anthony Morello, Jr., President of Creative Salads and Olive Branch, as well as individuals related to Mr. Morello. The promissory note requires annual principal payments of $750 thousand, payable on each anniversary of the closing, together with accrued interest at a rate of three and one-half percent (3.5%) per annum. As of both April 30, and January 31, 2025, the outstanding balance under the note was $750 thousand, which was recorded as Promissory notes – related parties in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheets. Interest expense related to this note was approximately $7 thousand and $13 thousand for the three months ended April 30, 2025 and April 30, 2024, respectively. As of April 30, 2025 and January 31, 2025, accrued interest was approximately $9 thousand and $2 thousand, respectively.
Lease
The Company leases 20,188 square feet in a fully contained facility in Farmingdale, NY from 148 Allen Blvd LLC for production and distribution of Creative Salads and Olive Branch products. 148 Allen Blvd LLC is owned by Mr. Morello and various individuals related to Mr. Morello. This lease term is through November 30, 2031 with the option to extend the lease for two additional ten-year terms with base rent of approximately $20 thousand per month through December 31, 2026, increasing after that date to approximately $24 thousand per month through the end of the initial lease term. The exercise of optional renewal is uncertain and, therefore, excluded from the calculation of the right of use asset. Rent expense and other ancillary charges pursuant to the lease for the three months ended April 30, 2025 and April 30, 2024 were approximately $84 thousand and $77 thousand, respectively.
