Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2022

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Description of the Business, Basis of Presentation, and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Barfresh Food Group Inc., (“we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company”) was incorporated on February 25, 2010 in the State of Delaware. The Company is engaged in the manufacture and distribution of ready-to-drink and ready-to-blend beverages, particularly, smoothies, shakes and frappes.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 10, 2022. In management’s opinion, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, that are necessary for a fair presentation of financial results for the interim periods presented. Operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year.

Reverse Stock Split

Effective December 29, 2021, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to implement a 1-for-13 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock. All the share numbers, share prices, exercise prices and other per share information throughout these financial statements have been adjusted, on a retroactive basis, to reflect the 1-for-13 reverse stock split.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and our wholly owned subsidiaries, Barfresh Inc. and Barfresh Corporation Inc. (formerly known as Smoothie, Inc.). All inter-company balances and transactions among the companies have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the years reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on March 10, 2022 that have had a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.

Fair Value Measurement

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), provides a comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures which are required about fair value measurements. Specifically, ASC 820 sets forth a definition of fair value and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs. ASC 820 defines the hierarchy as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded instruments with quoted prices, such as equities listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts or priced with models using highly observable inputs.

Level 3 – Significant inputs to pricing that are unobservable as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value.

Our financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, advanced payments, restricted cash, as well as our PPP loan, convertible notes, and derivative liabilities which were settled in 2021. The carrying value of our financial instruments on June 30, 2022, December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021 approximates their fair values, except for the derivative liability, which was carried at fair value prior to its extinguishment.

Restricted Cash

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had approximately $211,000 and $142,000, respectively, in restricted cash related to a co-packing agreement.

Accounts Receivable

As of December 31, 2021, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was approximately $121,000. The Company did not have an allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2022. The allowance is estimated based on evaluation of collectability of outstanding accounts receivable. Delinquent accounts are written-off when it is determined that the amounts are uncollectible.

Other Receivables

Other receivables consist of amounts due from vendors for materials acquired on their behalf for use in manufacturing the Company’s products.

Revenue Recognition

In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains ownership of promised goods. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods, net of rebates and other marketing allowances. The Company applies the following five steps:

	1)	Identify the contract with a customer

		A contract with a customer exists when (i) the Company enters into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii) the Company determines that collection of substantially all consideration for goods or services that are transferred is probable. For the Company, the contract is the approved sales order, which may also be supplemented by other agreements that formalize various terms and conditions with customers.

	2)	Identify the performance obligation in the contract

		Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer. For the Company, this consists of the delivery of frozen beverages, which provide immediate benefit to the customer.

	3)	Determine the transaction price

		The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring goods and is generally stated on the approved sales order. Variable consideration, which typically includes rebates or discounts, are estimated utilizing the most likely amount method and amounts recorded as revenue and accounts receivable reflect such estimates at the time of shipment. Subsequent adjustments to estimates of variable consideration have not been material.

	4)	Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract Since our contracts contain a single performance obligation, delivery of frozen beverages, the transaction price is allocated to that single performance obligation.

	5)	Recognize Revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation

		The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of frozen beverages when title and risk of loss passes and the customer accepts the goods, which generally occurs at the time of delivery to a customer warehouse. Customer sales incentives such as volume-based rebates or discounts are treated as a reduction of sales at the time the sale is recognized. Shipping and handling costs are treated as fulfillment costs and presented in distribution, selling and administrative costs. Payments that are received before performance obligations are recorded are shown as current liabilities.

		The Company evaluated the requirement to disaggregate revenue and concluded that substantially all of its revenue comes from smoothie beverages.

Shipping and Storage Costs

Shipping and handling costs are included in selling and marketing expenses. For the three months ending June 30, 2022 and 2021, shipping and handling costs totaled approximately $371,000 and $257,000, respectively. For the six months ending June 30, 2022 and 2021, shipping and handling costs totaled approximately $757,000 and $401,000, respectively.

Research and Development

Expenditures for research activities relating to product development and improvement are charged to expense as incurred. The Company incurred approximately $97,000 and $127,000, in research and development expenses for the three months ending June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For the six months ending June 30, 2022 and 2021, research and development expense totaled approximately $66,000 and $138,000, respectively.

Loss Per Share

At June 30, 2022 and 2021 common stock equivalents have not been included in the calculation of net loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive as a result of losses incurred.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2021 financial statements to conform to the 2022 presentation, including the presentation of selling and marketing expense apart from general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations, and the presentation of a reconciliation of the components of net cash used in operating activities as well as the inclusion of operating lease payments in operating activities in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

Recent Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued that we adopt as of the specified effective date. We have not determined if the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will have an impact on our results of operations and financial position.

Note 2. Inventory

Inventory consists of the following:

Schedule of Inventory

	June 30,		December 31,
	2022		2021
Raw materials	$	214,000	$	105,000
Finished goods		1,356,000		600,000
Inventory, net	$	1,570,000	$	705,000

Note 3. Property Plant and Equipment

Property and equipment, net consist of the following:

	June 30,			December 31,
	2022			2021
Manufacturing and customer equipment	$	3,814,000		$	3,800,000
Other property		36,000			36,000
Property and equipment, gross		3,850,000			3,836,000
Less: accumulated depreciation		(3,150,000	)		(2,894,000	)
Property and equipment		700,000			942,000
Equipment not yet placed in service		646,000			646,000
Property and equipment, net of depreciation	$	1,346,000		$	1,588,000

Depreciation expense related to these assets was approximately $110,000 and $130,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $255,000 and $261,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Depreciation expense in cost of revenue was approximately $10,000 and $12,000 for three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $10,000 and $18,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Note 4. Convertible Notes and Derivative Liability (Related and Unrelated Party)

In 2018, the Company issued Milestone I and Milestone II Convertible Notes, which were repaid and converted in the second quarter of 2021.

The Milestone II Convertible Notes contained variable conversion provisions based on the future price of the Company’s common stock, resulting in the potential issuance of an indeterminate number of shares of common stock upon conversion. The Company measured the fair value of the derivative resulting from the variable conversion provisions each reporting period.

Upon debt extinguishment the Company’s derivative liability was revalued at approximately $25,000, resulting in a gain of approximately $16,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The derivative value of $25,000 was included in the determining the loss on debt extinguishment.

Note 5. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company leases office space under a non-cancelable operating lease which expires on March 31, 2023. The Company’s periodic lease cost was approximately $20,000 for each of the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $40,000 for each of the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, our right of use asset was approximately $53,000.

The following table presents the future operating lease payment as of June 30, 2022.


2022 (six months remaining)	$	40,000
2023		20,000
Total lease payments		60,000
Less: imputed interest		(2,000	)
Total lease liability	$	58,000

From time to time, various lawsuits and legal proceedings may arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and an adverse result in these, or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. The Company is currently the defendant in one legal proceeding for an amount less than $100,000. Our legal counsel and management believe a material unfavorable outcome to be remote.

Note 6. Stockholders’ Equity

The following are changes in stockholders’ equity for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2022:

Unvested at June 30, 2022		39,800		$	5.41

As of June 30, 2022, the Company has approximately $175,000 of unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, which is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted average period of 2.4 years.

Note 7. Income Taxes

ASC 740 requires a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of evidence, it is more than likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be recognized. Accordingly, at this time the Company has placed a valuation allowance on all tax assets. As of June 30, 2022, the estimated effective tax rate for the 2022 was zero.

There are open statutes of limitations for taxing authorities in federal and state jurisdictions to audit our tax returns from 2017 through the current period. Our policy is to account for income tax related interest and penalties in income tax expense in the statement of operations.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not incur any interest and penalties associated with tax positions. As of June 30, 2022, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

Results of Operations

Results of Operation for Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 as Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021

Revenue and cost of revenue

Revenue increased by approximately $1,498,000 (115%) from approximately $1,301,000 in 2021 to approximately $2,799,000 in 2022. The overall revenue for the second quarter 2022 was higher due to growth in “Twist & Go”™ revenue and the gradual return of single serve demand.

Cost of revenue for 2022 was approximately $1,916,000 as compared to approximately $739,000 in 2021. Our gross profit was approximately $883,000 (32%) and $562,000 (43%) for 2022 and 2021, respectively. Gross margins decreased in the second quarter primarily due to product mix which includes “Twist & Go”™ at slightly lower product margins.

Selling and marketing expenses

Our operations were primarily directed towards increasing sales and expanding our distribution network.

	Three months ended June 30,		Three months ended June 30,
	2022		2021		Change		Percent
Sales and marketing		319,000		186,000		133,000		72	%
Storage and outbound freight		371,000		257,000		114,000		44	%
		690,000		443,000		247,000		56	%

Sales and marketing expenses increased approximately $133,000 (72%) from approximately $186,000 in 2021 to $319,000 in 2022. The increase in sales and marketing expenses was primarily the result of the retention of new employees and outside service providers to assist with sales and initiatives, as well as participation in education nutrition trade shows in 2022.

Storage and outbound freight expense increased approximately $114,000 (44%) from approximately $257,000 in 2021 to $371,000 in 2022. The increase was primarily a result of the 115% increase in revenue, tempered by logistics efficiencies from the increased volume in core markets served.

General and administrative expenses

Our general and administrative expenses increased by 41%, or approximately $237,000, from approximately $575,000 in 2021 to approximately $813,000 in 2022, primarily driven by personnel, including non-cash stock-based compensation, and other general and administrative expenses. The following is a breakdown of our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021:

	Three months ended June 30,		Three months ended June 30,
	2022		2021		Change			Percent
Personnel costs		358,000		210,000		148,000			70	%
Stock-based compensation		64,000		45,000		19,000			42	%
Legal, professional and consulting fees		64,000		101,000		(37,000	)		-37	%
Director fees		62,000		73,000		(11,000	)		-15	%
Research and development		97,000		70,000		27,000			39	%
Other general and administrative expenses		168,000		76,000		92,000			121	%
		813,000		575,000		238,000			41	%

Personnel cost represents the cost of employees including salaries, bonuses, employee benefits and employment taxes and continues to be our largest cost. Personnel cost increased by approximately $148,000 (70%) from approximately $210,000 to $358,000. The increase in personnel cost was partially offset by the decrease in consulting fees as we choose to hire permanent staff as the critical stages of the COVID-19 pandemic waned, rather than rely on consultants and temporary staff.

Stock based compensation is used as an incentive to attract new employees and to compensate existing employees. Stock based compensation includes stock issued and restricted stock units and options granted to employees and non-employees. Stock based compensation for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $64,000 compared to $45,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 due to the aforementioned increase in staffing.

Research and development expenses increased approximately $27,000 (39%) from approximately $70,000 in 2021 to $96,000 in 2022. The increase is primarily due to material consumption and expiration, partially offset by a reduction in labor hours for our development consulting team.

Other expenses increased approximately $93,000 (122%) from approximately $76,000 in 2021 to $169,000 in 2022. In 2022, we incurred approximately $65,000 in one-time costs related to the uplist of our common stock to the NASDAQ Stock Market. Additionally, 2021 benefited from the results of vendor payables reconciliation resulting in the reduction of vendor liabilities.

Operating loss

We had operating losses of approximately $737,000 and $602,000 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase of approximately $135,000 or 22%, was primarily due to the increase in operating expenses, partially offset by the increase in gross profit.

Other income and expense

Interest expense was approximately $69,000 and loss on debt extinguishment was approximately $194,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Interest related to convertible debt that was converted and repaid in 2021. We did not incur any interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022. We also recognized gain of $568,000 from the forgiveness of our PPP loan in 2021

Net loss

We had net losses of approximately $737,000 and $297,000 in the three-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, with the primary change due to the $568,000 gain on the forgiveness of the PPP loan in 2021.

Results of Operation for Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 as Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021

Revenue and cost of revenue

Our gross profit was approximately $1,647,000 (31%) and $911,000 (39%) for 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Stock based compensation for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $93,000 compared to $10,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 due to the aforementioned increase in staffing coupled with the departure of two key employees and the forfeiture of their unvested options in 2021.

Legal, professional, and consulting fees increased approximately $66,000 (37%) from approximately $178,000 in 2021 to $244,000 in 2022. The increase was primarily due to corporate development activities.

Research and development expenses decreased approximately $11,000 (8%) from approximately $138,000 in 2021 to $127,000 in 2022. The reduction is primarily due to a reduction in labor hours for our development consulting team.

Other expenses increased approximately $263,000 (185%) from approximately $142,000 in 2021 to $405,000 in 2022. In 2022, we incurred approximately $168,000 in one-time costs related to the uplist of our common stock to the NASDAQ Stock Market. Additionally, 2021 benefited from the results of vendor payables reconciliation resulting in the reduction of vendor liabilities.

Operating loss

We had operating losses of approximately $1,631,000 and $1,151,000 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase of approximately $480,000 or 42%, was primarily due to the increase in operating expenses, partially offset by the increase in gross profit.

Other income and expense

The change in the value of the derivative liability is based upon the Black-Scholes model from one period to another. The gain of approximately $16,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was a result of the change in components of the Black-Scholes model. The derivative liability was settled upon conversion and repayment of the convertible notes in the second quarter of 2021.

Interest expense was approximately $128,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Interest related to convertible debt that was converted and repaid in 2021. We did not incur any interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2022, we had working capital of approximately $4,996,000 as compared with approximately $6,172,000 at December 31, 2021. The decrease in working capital surplus is primarily due to operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we used cash of approximately $1,923,000 in operations, and $13,000 for the purchase of equipment, partially offset by $5,000 from the issuance of stock pursuant to an outstanding warrant.

Our liquidity needs will depend on how quickly we are able to profitably ramp up sales, as well as our ability to control and reduce variable operating expenses, and to continue to control fixed overhead expense.

Our operations to date have been financed by the sale of securities, the issuance of convertible debt and the issuance of short-term debt, including related party advances. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations with the capital raised, we will be required to raise additional funds either in the form of equity or debt. There are no assurances that we will be able to generate the necessary capital to carry out our current plan of operations.

We have entered into a direct lease for premises covering the period April 1, 2019 to March 31, 2023. The aggregate minimum lease payments under the non-cancellable direct lease as of June 30, 2022 are approximately $60,000.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no 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 stockholders.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 13(a)-15(e). Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act has been appropriately recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis and are effective in ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of June 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective.

Management has identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting:

Management has concluded that there is a material weakness due to the control environment. The control environment is impacted due to the company’s inadequate segregation of duties.

In an effort to remediate the identified material weakness and enhance our internal control over financial reporting, we have hired additional personnel and are reassigning control responsibilities in conjunction with the implementation of a new enterprise resource planning system. We believe that we are taking the steps necessary to ensure that we are able to properly implement internal control procedures.

Since the assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting did identify material weaknesses, management considers its internal control over financial reporting to be ineffective.

Management believes that the material weakness set forth above did not have an effect on our financial results.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
