Description of Business and Basis of Presentation	1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation. Description of Business. Lendway, Inc. (“the Company”) is a specialty agricultural (“ag”) company focused on making and managing its ag investments in the United States (“U.S.”) and internationally. On February 22, 2024, the Company, through its majority-owned U.S. subsidiary Tulp 24.1, LLC (“Tulp 24.1”), acquired Bloomia B.V. (“Bloomia”). Subsequent to the purchase of Bloomia, the Company’s primary operations will be that of Bloomia. Bloomia is a significant producer of fresh cut tulips in the U.S. with a presence in the Netherlands and South Africa. As part of consideration for the business combination, the Company issued units of Tulp 24.1 to the continuing CEO of Bloomia, which amounted to 18.6% and is presented as noncontrolling interest in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The remaining 81.4% equity interest of Tulp 24.1 is owned by the Company and the Company is and maintains control of Tulp 24.1 as its sole managing member. Refer to Note 3 for further discussion. The Company had previously planned to also develop a non-bank lending business via its wholly owned subsidiary, Farmland Credit, Inc. (“FCI”), and FCI’s subsidiaries, Farmland Credit FR, LLC and Farmland Credit AV, LLC. Promptly after receiving a notice of resignation from the Company’s then-serving Chief Executive Officer in June 2024, our Board of Directors reexamined the Company’s strategic position and prospects. Primarily because the departing Chief Executive Officer represented nearly all of the Company’s knowledge and expertise relating to the purchase of existing loans and/or origination and funding of new loans, the Company has determined to focus solely on the ag business. Because the non-bank lending business remained in development, this change is not expected to have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s operations or financial results.

ASU 2023-09 requires public companies to expand their income tax disclosures with respect to the reconciliation of the effective tax rate to the statutory rate for federal, state, and foreign income taxes and requires greater detail about significant reconciling items in the reconciliation.
