Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Three and Six Months Ended August 31, 2022 and August 31, 2021
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Nature of Operations
BAB, Inc. (“the Company”) has wholly owned subsidiaries: BAB Systems, Inc. (“Systems”), BAB Operations, Inc. (“Operations”) and BAB Investments, Inc. (“Investments”). Systems was incorporated on December 2, 1992, and was primarily established to franchise Big Apple Bagels® (“BAB”) specialty bagel retail stores. My Favorite Muffin (“MFM”) was acquired in 1997 and is included as a part of Systems. Brewster’s (“Brewster’s”) was established in 1996 and the coffee is sold in BAB and MFM locations. SweetDuet® (“SD”) frozen yogurt can be added as an additional brand in a BAB location. Operations was formed in 1995, primarily to operate Company-owned stores of which there are currently none. The assets of Jacobs Bros. Bagels (“Jacobs Bros.”) were acquired in 1999, and any branded wholesale business uses this trademark. Investments was incorporated in 2009 to be used for the purpose of acquisitions. To date there have been no acquisitions.
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 12, 2000. The Company currently franchises and licenses bagel and muffin retail units under the BAB, MFM and SD trade names. At August 31, 2022, the Company had
The BAB franchised brand consists of units operating as “Big Apple Bagels®,” featuring daily baked bagels, flavored cream cheeses, premium coffees, gourmet bagel sandwiches and other related products. BAB units are primarily concentrated in the Midwest and Western United States. The MFM brand consists of units operating as “My Favorite Muffin Gourmet Muffin Bakery™” (“MFM Bakery”), featuring a large variety of freshly baked muffins and coffees and units operating as “My Favorite Muffin Your All-Day Bakery Café®” (“MFM Cafe”) featuring these products as well as a variety of specialty bagel sandwiches and related products. The SweetDuet® is a branded self-serve frozen yogurt that can be added as an additional brand in a BAB location. Although the Company doesn't actively market Brewster's stand-alone franchises, Brewster's coffee products are sold in most franchised units.
The Company is leveraging on the natural synergy of distributing muffin products in existing BAB units and, alternatively, bagel products and Brewster's Coffee in existing MFM units. The Company expects to continue to realize efficiencies in servicing the combined base of BAB and MFM franchisees.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations; nevertheless, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements and the notes hereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2021 which was filed February 25, 2022. In the opinion of the Company's management, the condensed consolidated financial statements for the unaudited interim period presented include all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly present the results of such interim period and the financial position as of the end of said period. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

3. Revenue Recognition
Franchise and related revenue
The Company sells individual franchises. The franchise agreements typically require the franchisee to pay an initial, non-refundable fee prior to opening the respective location(s), and continuing royalty fees on a weekly basis based upon a percentage of franchisee net sales. The initial term of franchise agreements are typically
Under the terms of our franchise agreements, the Company typically promises to provide franchise rights, pre-opening services such as blueprints, operational materials, planning and functional training courses, and ongoing services, such as management of the marketing fund. The Company considers certain pre-opening activities and the franchise rights and related ongoing services to represent two separate performance obligations. The franchise fee revenue has been allocated to the two separate performance obligations using a residual approach. The Company has estimated the value of performance obligations related to certain pre-opening activities deemed to be distinct based on cost plus an applicable margin, and assigned the remaining amount of the initial franchise fee to the franchise rights and ongoing services. Revenue allocated to preopening activities is recognized when (or as) these services are performed. Revenue allocated to franchise rights and ongoing services is deferred until the store opens, and recognized on a straight-line basis over the duration of the agreement, as this ensures that revenue recognition aligns with the customer’s access to the franchise right.
Royalty fees from franchised stores represent a
Royalty revenue is recognized during the respective franchise agreement based on the royalties earned each period as the underlying franchise store sales occur.
There are two items involving revenue recognition of contracts that require us to make subjective judgments: the determination of which performance obligations are distinct within the context of the overall contract and the estimated stand-alone selling price of each obligation. In instances where our contract includes significant customization or modification services, the customization and modification services are generally combined and recorded as one distinct performance obligation.
3. Revenue Recognition (continued)
Gift Card Breakage Revenue
The Company sells gift cards to its customers in its retail stores and through its Corporate office. The Company’s gift cards do not have an expiration date and are not redeemable for cash except where required by law. Revenue from gift cards is recognized upon redemption in exchange for product and reported within franchisee store revenue and the royalty and marketing fees are paid and shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Until redemption, outstanding customer balances are recorded as a liability. An obligation is recorded at the time of sale of the gift card and it is included in accrued expenses on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The liability is reduced when the gift cards are redeemed by a franchise. Although there are no expiration dates for our gift cards, based on our analysis of historical gift card redemption patterns, we can reasonably estimate the amount of gift cards for which redemption is remote, which is referred to as “breakage.” The Company recognizes gift card breakage proportional to actual gift card redemptions on a quarterly basis and the corresponding revenue is included in licensing fees and other revenue. Significant judgments and estimates are required in determining the breakage rate and will be reassessed each quarter.
Nontraditional and rebate revenue
As part of the Company’s franchise agreements, the franchisee purchases products and supplies from designated vendors. The Company may receive various fees and rebates from the vendors and distributors on product purchases by franchisees. In addition, the Company may collect various initial fees, and those fees are classified as deferred revenue in the balance sheet and straight lined over the life of the contract as deferred revenue in the balance sheet. The Company does not possess control of the products prior to their transfer to the franchisee and products are delivered to franchisees directly from the vendor or their distributors. The Company recognizes the rebates as franchisees purchase products and supplies from vendors or distributors and recognizes the initial fees over the contract life and the fees are reported as licensing fees and other income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
Marketing Fund
Franchise agreements require the franchisee to pay continuing marketing fees on a weekly basis, based on a percentage of franchisee sales. Marketing fees are not paid on franchise wholesale sales. The balance sheet includes marketing fund cash, which is the restricted cash, accounts receivable and unexpended marketing fund contributions. Although the marketing fees are not separate performance obligations distinct from the underlying franchise right, the Company acts as the principal as it is primarily responsible for the fulfillment and control of the marketing services. As a result, the Company records marketing fees in revenues and related marketing fund expenditures in expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. The Company historically presented the net activities of the marketing fund within the balance sheet in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. While this reclassification impacts the gross amount of reported revenue and expenses the amounts will be offsetting, and there is no impact on net income.

6. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 350 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” requires that assets with indefinite lives no longer be amortized, but instead be subject to annual impairment tests.
Following the guidelines contained in ASC 350, the Company tests goodwill and intangible assets that are not subject to amortization for impairment annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that impairment is possible. The Company has elected to conduct its annual test during the first quarter. During the quarter ended February 28, 2022 and February 28, 2021, management qualitatively assessed goodwill to determine whether testing was necessary. Factors that management considers in this assessment include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, overall financial performance (both current and projected), changes in management and strategy, and changes in the composition and carrying amounts of net assets. If this qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than it’s carrying value, a quantitative assessment is then performed. Based on the qualitative analysis conducted during the quarter, management does not believe that an impairment existed at February 28, 2022 and 2021. Management reviewed the assessment as of August 31, 2022 and there were no material changes.
7. Lease Receivable Commitments
The Company leases restaurant equipment to a certain franchise under a sales-type lease agreement. The lease agreement does not contain any non-lease components. The lease term is for a period of years, beginning June 1, 2022 and ending June 1, 2029. The lease requires weekly payments of $

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Certain statements contained in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, including statements regarding the development of the Company's business, the markets for the Company's products, anticipated capital expenditures, and the effects of completed and proposed acquisitions, and other statements contained herein regarding matters that are not historical facts, are forward-looking statements as is within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Because such statements include risks and uncertainties, actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements as set forth in this report, the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and other reports that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain risks and uncertainties are wholly or partially outside the control of the Company and its management, including its ability to attract new franchisees; the continued success of current franchisees; the effects of competition on franchisees and consumer acceptance of the Company's products in new and existing markets; fluctuation in development and operating costs; brand awareness; availability and terms of capital; adverse publicity; acceptance of new product offerings; availability of locations and terms of sites for store development; food, labor and employee benefit costs; changes in government regulation (including increases in the minimum wage); regional economic and weather conditions; the hiring, training, and retention of skilled corporate and restaurant management; and the integration and assimilation of acquired concepts. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management's analysis only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
General
There are 69 franchised and 4 licensed units at August 31, 2022 compared to 71 franchised and 3 licensed units at August 31, 2021. System-wide revenues for the nine months ended August 31, 2022 were $28.3 million and August 31, 2021 was $25.5 million.
The Company's revenues are derived primarily from the ongoing royalties paid to the Company by its franchisees and receipt of initial franchise fees. Additionally, the Company derives revenue from the sale of licensed products (My Favorite Muffin mix, Big Apple Bagels cream cheese and Brewster's coffee), and through nontraditional channels of distribution.
Royalty fees represent a 5% fee on net retail and wholesale sales of franchised units. Royalty revenues are recognized on an accrual basis using actual franchise receipts. Generally, franchisees report and remit royalties on a weekly basis. The majority of month-end receipts are recorded on an accrual basis based on actual numbers from reports received from franchisees shortly after the month-end. Estimates are utilized in certain instances where actual numbers have not been received and such estimates are based on the average of the last 10 weeks’ actual reported sales.
There are two items involving revenue recognition of contracts that require us to make subjective judgments: the determination of which performance obligations are distinct within the context of the overall contract and the estimated stand-alone selling price of each obligation. In instances where our contract includes significant customization or modification services, the customization and modification services are generally combined and recorded as one distinct performance obligation.
The Company earns licensing fees from the sale of BAB branded products, which includes coffee, cream cheese, muffin mix and frozen bagels from a third-party commercial bakery, to the franchised and licensed units.
As of August 31, 2022, the Company employed 12 full-time employees at the Corporate office. The employees are responsible for corporate management and oversight, accounting, advertising and franchising. None of the Company's employees are subject to any collective bargaining agreements and management considers its relations with its employees to be good.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended August 31, 2022 versus Three Months Ended August 31, 2021
For the three months ended August 31, 2022 and August 31, 2021, the Company reported net income of $164,000 and $133,000, respectively. Total revenue of $882,000 increased $93,000, or 11.8%, for the three months ended August 31, 2022, as compared to total revenue of $789,000 for the three months ended August 31, 2021.
Royalty fee revenue of $482,000, for the quarter ended August 31, 2022, increased $27,000, or 5.9%, from the $455,000 for quarter ended August 31, 2021. The increase in royalties for the quarter ended August 31, 2022 compared to the quarter ended August 31, 2021, was primarily due to franchisees’ continued increase in usage of online ordering and delivery services in their areas, combined with the fact that COVID-19 still had some impact on restaurant patronage during the summer of 2021.
Franchise fee revenue was $16,000, for the quarter ended August 31, 2022 and $4,000 for 2021. In the third quarter 2022 there was one store opened and one transfer compared to no store openings or transfers in 2021. Licensing fee and other income of $97,000, for the quarter ended August 31, 2022, increased $31,000 or 47.0% from $66,000 for same quarter 2021.
Marketing Fund revenues of $287,000, for the quarter ended August 31, 2022, increased $23,000, or 8.7% from $264,000 for the quarter ended August 31, 2021. The primary reason Marketing Fund revenue increased in 2022 is that store revenues increased in 2022.
Total operating expenses of $653,000, for the quarter ended August 31, 2022, increased $62,000, or 10.5% from $591,000 for the quarter ended August 31, 2021. The increase was primarily related to an increase in Marketing Fund expenses of $23,000, payroll expense of $22,000, employee benefit expense of $7,000, travel expense of $2,000, franchise development of $8,000, occupancy expense of $3,000 and professional services of $6,000, offset by a decrease in advertising and promotion of $6,000 and general operating expenses of $2,000.
For the three months ended August 31, 2022 the provision for income tax was $65,000, compared to $66,000 for the three months ending August 31, 2021.
Earnings per share, as reported for basic and diluted outstanding shares for the quarters was $0.02 for quarters ended August 2022 and 2021.
Nine Months Ended August 31, 2022 versus Nine Months Ended August 31, 2021
For the nine months ended August 31, 2022 and August 31, 2021, the Company reported net income of $321,000 and $553,000, respectively. Total revenue of $2,445,000 increased $185,000, or 8.2%, for the nine months ended August 31, 2022, as compared to total revenue of $2,260,000 for the nine months ended August 31, 2021.
Royalty fee revenue of $1,362,000, for the nine months ended August 31, 2022, increased $140,000, or 11.5%, from the $1,222,000 for nine months ended August 31, 2021. The increase in royalties for the nine months ended August 31, 2022 was primarily due to franchisees’ continued increase in usage of online ordering and delivery services in their areas, combined with the fact that COVID-19 still had some impact on restaurant patronage during the same period in 2021.
Franchise fee revenues of $34,000, for the nine months ended August 31, 2022, decreased $4,000, or 13.3%, from the $30,000 for the nine months ended August 31, 2021. The $4,000 decrease was driven by several factors. For the nine-month period ended August 31, 2022, in addition to the normal franchise fee amortization, the Company recorded revenue for three store transfers and one store opening. For the nine months ended August 31, 2021, the Company had one store transfer and recognized additional franchise fee amortization of $14,000 related to a store that closed prior to the end of its ten-year franchise agreement.
Licensing fee and other income of $241,000, for the nine months ended August 31, 2022, decreased $51,000 or 17.5% from $292,000 for same period 2021. For the nine months ended August 31, 2022 there was an $83,000 decrease in settlement income because a store closed and paid settlement fee to close, there was a $4,000 decrease in Sign Shop revenue, offset by an increase of $31,000 in license and nontraditional revenue, and an increase in lease income of $5,000 in 2022 compared to same period 2021.
Marketing Fund revenues of $808,000, for the nine months ended August 31, 2022, increased $92,000, or 12.8% from $716,000 for the nine months ended August 31, 2021. The primary reason Marketing Fund revenue increased for the nine months of 2022 were increased store revenues in 2022. In 2021 there was still some slight COVID-19 concerns for restaurant patrons which is reflected in the lower royalty sales volume.
Total operating expenses of $1,996,000, for the nine months ended August 31, 2022, increased $193,000, or 10.7% from $1,803,000 for the same period 2021. The increase was primarily related to an increase in Marketing Fund expenses of $92,000, a $72,000 increase in salaries with an additional Business Consultant and a salary increase January 2022 for all employees, a $15,000 increase in employee benefits, an $8,000 increase in travel and an increase in franchise development of $18,000. This was offset by an $11,000 decrease in professional services and a $1,000 decrease in advertising and promotion.
For the nine months ended August 31, 2022 the provision for income tax was $129,000 compared to a $133,000 income tax provision for the nine months ending August 31, 2021. In 2022 deferred taxes were $34,000 versus 2021 of $102,000 in deferred taxes. The federal and state effective tax rate used to compute income tax expense is a federal rate of 21% and a state rate of 7.11%, which is net of the federal tax effect.
In fiscal 2021, the Company’s income included the $228,000 of forgiveness, but it is excluded from federal and state tax calculations as a permanent difference, thereby reducing the federal and state effective rate from the customary effective tax rate used to compute income tax expense.
Earnings per share, as reported for basic and diluted outstanding shares for the nine months ended August 2022 and 2021 were $0.04 and $0.08, respectively. In 2021 the Paycheck Protection Program loan forgiveness accounted for $0.03 of the $0.08 earnings per share.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At August 31, 2022, the Company had working capital of $1,260,000 and unrestricted cash of $1,544,000. At August 31, 2021 the Company had working capital of $1,172,000 and unrestricted cash of $1,458,000.
During the nine months ended August 31, 2022, the Company had net income of $321,000 and operating activities provided cash of $548,000. The principal adjustments to reconcile the net income to cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ending August 31, 2022 was depreciation and amortization of $4,000, deferred tax expense of $34,000 and noncash lease expense of 74,000, less the recovery of uncollectible accounts of $3,000 and $5,000 in sales-type lease income. In addition, changes in operating assets and liabilities increased cash by $123,000. During the nine months ended August 31, 2021, the Company had net income of $553,000 and operating activities provided cash of $595,000. The principal adjustments to reconcile the net income to cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ending August 31, 2021 was depreciation and amortization of $4,000, deferred tax expense of $102,000 and noncash lease expense of $74,000, less PPP loan forgiveness of $228,000 and the recovery of uncollectible accounts of $2,000. In addition, changes in operating assets and liabilities increased cash by $93,000.
The Company had no investing activity in 2022 compared to $3,000 for the same period 2021.
Cash distributions/dividends used $218,000 in financing activities for the nine months ending August 31, 2022 and 2021.
Cash Distribution and Dividend Policy
The Company continues to monitor any possibly re-occurring impact of the Coronavirus variants on its operations when determining the future cash distribution/dividend payments. It is the Company’s intent that future cash distributions/dividend payments will be considered after reviewing profitability expectations and financing needs and will be declared at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Company will continue to analyze its ability to pay cash distributions/dividends on a quarterly basis. For fiscal 2022 a $0.01 cash distribution has been declared for the first and second and third quarters.
Determination of whether distributions are considered a cash distribution, cash dividend or combination of the two will not be made until after December 31, 2022, as the classification or combination is dependent upon the Company’s earnings and profits for tax purposes for its fiscal year ending November 30, 2022.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The standard’s main goal is to improve financial reporting by requiring earlier recognition of credit losses on financing receivables and other financial assets in scope, including trade receivables. The amendments in this update broaden the information that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured either collectively or individually. The guidance in ASU 2016-13 is effective for public companies for fiscal years and for interim periods with those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company will adopt ASU 2019-13 for fiscal year ending November 30, 2024 and the adoption of this guidance is not expected to have any material impact on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes,” which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The amendments in ASU 2019-12 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods therein. Early adoption of the standard is permitted, including adoption in interim or annual periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued. The Company will adopt ASU 2019-12 for fiscal year ending November 30, 2024 and the adoption of this guidance is not expected to have any material impact on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
Management does not believe that there are any recently issued and effective or not yet effective accounting pronouncements as of August 31, 2022 that would have or are expected to have any significant effect on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or income statement.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Company has identified other significant accounting policies that, as a result of the judgments, uncertainties, uniqueness and complexities of the underlying accounting standards and operations involved could result in material changes to its financial condition or results of operations under different conditions or using different assumptions. The Company's most critical accounting policies are related to revenue recognition, valuation of long-lived and intangible assets, deferred tax assets and the related valuation allowance. Details regarding the Company's use of these policies and the related estimates are described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 25, 2022.
