Legal Matters and Contingencies [Text Block]	L. Contingencies From time to time, we become involved in various investigations, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These matters may relate to product liability, employment, intellectual property, regulatory, contract or other matters. The resolution of these matters as they arise may be subject to various uncertainties and, even if such claims are without merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. While unfavorable outcomes are possible, based on available information, we currently do not believe the resolution of these matters will result in a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial condition, or results of operations. However, a settlement payment or unfavorable outcome could be greater than we currently anticipate and if so, could adversely impact our results of operations. Our evaluation of the likely impact of these actions could change in the future, and we could have unfavorable outcomes we do not expect. Employee Retention Tax Credit In fiscal 2023, we recorded a $3.5 million Employee Retention Tax Credit ("ERTC") net refund associated with the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act signed into law in March 2020 and extended with the Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2020 and the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021. These acts provided numerous tax provisions and other stimulus measures, including the ERTC. Under these expanded measures, we determined during fiscal 2023 that we qualified for the ERTC for the first three quarters of calendar 2021 and filed the required amended payroll tax returns to claim this refund. On December 9, 2024, the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") sent us a 105c letter informing us that they do not believe we qualify for the tax credit for the third quarter of calendar 2021. We disagree with the position the IRS noted in their denial letter, and we have responded to their letter to contest their claim. Although we had received this initial denial from the IRS, we believe we are entitled to the refund for these claims and therefore we have not made any allowances against the accrual for the related refund that was recorded in fiscal 2023. We have not yet received any additional correspondence from the IRS associated with our appeal related to the third quarter of calendar 2021, but in April 2025, we collected the refund amounts associated with our ERTC filings for the first and second quarters of calendar year 2021, which totaled $2.9 million. Geopolitical Uncertainty Management is monitoring the war in Ukraine, and the armed conflicts in Gaza, Lebanon and Syria, and potential economic effects from these events as they develop. These geographical areas account for a small portion of our global net sales, but we do source multiple raw materials from Israel. We do not anticipate these conflicts will have a significant impact on our net sales. We are continually evaluating options for alternative ingredient sources and/or holding safety stock of impacted materials to limit any impact. There are further concerns regarding consumer purchasing and consumption behavior, increases in global shipping expenses, greater volatility in foreign exchange and interest rates, and other unforeseen business disruptions due to the current global geopolitical tensions.

Government Trade Tariffs The President of the United States has recently ordered U.S. government agencies to enforce new and increased tariffs on a wide range of goods and materials imported from foreign trade partners.

Current and future implementation of tariffs may include products and applications, including ingredients we or our customers require for their products. These goods may include beta-alanine. The commercialization of our beta-alanine patent estate depends on the availability of the raw material beta-alanine. In response, China and other governments have imposed tariffs on certain American products. The resulting tariffs could have a significant adverse effect on our customers' businesses, the availability of beta-alanine, and the cost of our products. While we do not know how potential increased tariffs will be imposed, or how any tariffs will impact our business, we believe the imposition of additional tariffs by the U.S. or other governments on products or ingredients we use in the products we manufacture could adversely impact our customers as a result of increased product costs, and such increased costs could have an adverse impact on the availability of beta-alanine, the licensing of our patents and trademarks and our distribution of this raw material. This could adversely impact our ability to license our patents and trademarks, our ability to sell beta-alanine, and our customers’ ability to compete in the marketplace, reducing demand for our products, and products we manufacture for our customers. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. As a contract manufacturer, we pass through material cost increases to our customers, including increases associated with tariffs. We also work with our customers to identify potential alternative supply sources for key ingredients to help mitigate the impact tariffs may have on the cost of their products. We will continue to evaluate the impact of imposed trade tariffs on our customers, suppliers and operations.

Legal Matters and Contingencies [Text Block]

L. Contingencies

From time to time, we become involved in various investigations, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These matters may relate to product liability, employment, intellectual property, regulatory, contract or other matters. The resolution of these matters as they arise may be subject to various uncertainties and, even if such claims are without merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources.

However, a settlement payment or unfavorable outcome could be greater than we currently anticipate and if so, could adversely impact our results of operations.
