Note 1 – Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Business
BranchOut
Food Inc., a Nevada corporation, together with its Peruvian subsidiary (collectively, “BranchOut,” the “Company,”
“we,” “our” or “us”), is engaged in the development, marketing, sale and distribution of plant-based,
dehydrated fruit and vegetable snacks and powders manufactured at a
In April 2024, we formed BranchOut Food Sucursal Peru, our Peruvian wholly-owned subsidiary, to operate our production facility in Pisco Peru, which commenced operations in December 2024. Our products are produced using our advanced dehydration platform licensed exclusively from EnWave Corporation (“EnWave”) to create our private label, branded, and bulk wholesale products. We use proprietary GentleDry™ Technology optimized to preserve taste, texture, color, and nutrients. Our GentleDry™ Technology is protected by over 17 patents. Prior to operating our production facility, we relied on contract manufacturers.
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and as required by pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of items of a normal and recurring nature) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2025, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 was derived from our audited financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, which were included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the following entities, all of which were under common control and ownership at June 30, 2025:
| Name of Entity | Jurisdiction | Relationship | ||
| BranchOut Food Inc.(1) | Nevada, U.S. | Parent | ||
| BranchOut Food Sucursal Peru(2) | Peru | Subsidiary |
| (1) | Holding company in the form of a corporation. |
| (2) | Peruvian wholly-owned subsidiary of BranchOut Food Inc. established on April 26, 2024 in the form of a branch. |
The consolidated financial statements herein contain the operations of the wholly-owned subsidiaries listed above. The Company’s headquarters are located in Bend, Oregon.
Going Concern

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Segment Reporting
Under ASC 280, Segment Reporting, operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise where discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company has two components, consisting of its sales operations in the United States, and its production operations in Peru. Therefore, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is also the CODM, makes decisions and manages the Company’s operations based on these two operating segments for the manufacture and distribution of its products.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company discloses the fair value of certain assets and liabilities in accordance with ASC 820 – Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (ASC 820). Under ASC 820-10-05, the FASB establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheets are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short-term nature of the instruments.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash
equivalents include money market accounts which have maturities of three months or less. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows,
all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents
are stated at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates market value. There were
Cash in Excess of FDIC Insured Limits
The
Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. Accounts are guaranteed by
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $
Accounts Receivable
Accounts
receivable is carried at their estimated collectible amounts. Trade accounts receivable is periodically evaluated for collectability
based on past credit history with customers and their current financial condition. The Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts
of $
Inventory
The Company’s products consist of pre-packaged and bulk-dried fruit and vegetable-based snacks, powders and ingredients developed at its production facility in Peru and purchased products from contract-manufacturers in Chile and/or Peru. Raw materials consist of purchased fruits and vegetables and packaging materials. Appropriate consideration is given to obsolescence, excessive levels, deterioration, and other factors in evaluating net realizable value. No reserve for obsolete inventories has been recognized. Inventory, consisting of raw materials, work in progress and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the average cost valuation method, and consisted of the following as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:
| June 30, | December 31, | |||||||

Company secures raw materials with advances of up to
Research and Development
We operate in a fast-moving category shaped by shifting consumer preferences, requiring continuous innovation and new product development. To support this, we rely on our proprietary GentleDry™ Technology, an advanced dehydration platform licensed exclusively from EnWave Corporation. We expect to continue investing in R&D as we scale our GentleDry™ product portfolio and bring new, innovative offerings to market that align with evolving consumer needs.
Research
and development costs include salaries, building costs, utilities, administrative expenses and other corporate costs. For the six months
ending June 30, 2025, our research and development expenses totaled $
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at the lower of cost or estimated net recoverable amount. The cost of property, plant and equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method based on the lesser of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the lease term based on the following life expectancy:
| Office equipment | ||
| Furniture and fixtures | ||
| Equipment and machinery | ||
| Leasehold Improvements |
Repairs and maintenance expenditures are charged to operations as incurred. Major improvements and replacements, which extend the useful life of an asset, are capitalized, and depreciated over the remaining estimated useful life of the asset. When assets are retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations.
The Company leases a manufacturing facility located in Pisco, Peru, which is accounted for as an operating lease (see Note 13). The lease includes a purchase option that allows the Company to acquire the facility at the end of the lease term. During 2024, the landlord of this facility entered bankruptcy proceedings.
To
protect its long-term strategic interests, the Company purchased the first mortgage position on the facility and continues to hold its
contractual purchase option under the lease. Management currently intends to acquire ownership of the facility either (i) through the
landlord’s bankruptcy settlement process or (ii) by exercising the purchase option at the end of the lease term, although there
can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in this regard. The Company accounts for the facility as a leased asset. The
first mortgage position is included on the balance sheet in other assets of $
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for possible impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable or is impaired. Recoverability is assessed using undiscounted cash flows based upon historical results and current projections of earnings before interest and taxes. Impairment is measured using discounted cash flows of future operating results based upon a rate that corresponds to the cost of capital. Impairments are recognized in operating results to the extent that carrying value exceeds discounted cash flows of future operations.
Our indefinite-lived brand names and trademarks acquired and are assigned an indefinite life as we anticipate that these brand names will contribute cash flows to the Company perpetually. We evaluate the recoverability of intangible assets periodically by considering events or circumstances that may warrant revised estimates of useful lives or that indicate the asset may be impaired. The Company expenses internally developed trademarks.
License Agreement
The
Company is party to a license agreement under which it is licensed to utilize certain technology and production equipment developed and
manufactured by another company, relating on an exclusive basis to avocado products and on a non-exclusive basis to other products. The
license is not discernible from the equipment; therefore, the license costs have been capitalized and depreciated over the useful life
of the equipment. The license agreement also entitles the licensor to a royalty on all revenue from the sale of products produced using
the equipment. These royalties are recognized as royalty expenses as the products are sold. There was a total of $
Derivatives
The Company evaluates convertible notes payable, stock options, stock warrants and other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under the relevant sections of ASC Topic 815-40, Derivative Instruments and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity.
| 10 |
BRANCHOUT FOOD INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
The result of this accounting treatment could be that the fair value of a financial instrument is classified as a derivative instrument and is marked-to-market at each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statement of operations as other income or other expense. Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Financial instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC Topic 815-40 are reclassified to a liability account at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customer. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its plant-based snack products in accordance with a five-step model in which the Company evaluates the transfer of promised goods or services and recognizes revenue when customers obtain control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company has elected, as a practical expedient, to account for the shipping and handling as fulfillment costs, rather than as separate performance obligations, and the related costs are recorded as selling expenses in general and administrative expenses in the statement of operations. Revenue is reported net of applicable provisions for discounts, returns and allowances. Methodologies for determining these provisions are dependent on customer pricing and promotional practices. The Company records reductions to revenue for estimated product returns and pricing adjustments in the same period that the related revenue is recorded. These estimates are based on industry-based historical data, historical sales returns, if any, analysis of credit memo data, and other factors known at the time.
The Company’s sales are predominantly generated from the sale of finished products to retailers, and to a lesser extent, direct to consumers through third party website platforms. These sales contain a single performance obligation, and revenue is recognized at a single point in time when ownership, risks and rewards transfer. Typically, this occurs when the goods are received by the retailer or customer, or when the title of goods is exchanged. Revenues are recognized in an amount that reflects the net consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for the goods.
The Company promotes its products with advertising, consumer incentives and trade promotions. These programs include discounts, slotting fees, coupons, rebates, in-store display incentives and volume-based incentives. Customer trade promotion and consumer incentive activities are recorded as a reduction to the transaction price based on amounts estimated as being due to customers and consumers at the end of a period. The Company derives these estimates based principally on historical utilization and redemption rates. The Company does not receive a distinct service in relation to the advertising, consumer incentives and trade promotions. Payment terms in the Company’s invoices are based on the billing schedule established in contracts and purchase orders with customers.
Expenses such as slotting fees, sales discounts, and allowances are accounted for as a direct reduction of revenues as follows for the three and six months ended June 2025 and 2024:
| For the Three Months Ended | For the Six Months Ended | |||||||||||||||

| Less: slotting, discounts, and allowances | ||||||||||||||||
| Net revenue | $ | $ | $ | $ | ||||||||||||
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold includes the direct costs associated with the purchase, production and manufacturing of the Company’s products. Production costs are primarily calculated from direct raw materials, labor, and variable manufacturing costs. We determine manufacturing overhead by applying a predetermined rate based on actual machine hours used in production. Overhead costs include factory rent, utilities, depreciation, and other factory-related expenses, allocated to products based on the factory’s capacity and actual machine hours incurred during production.
We analyze factory capacity to establish a normal level of production, which serves as the basis for allocating manufacturing overhead costs. This approach ensures that our overhead costs are systematically and consistently allocated to inventory.
Advertising and Promotions Costs
The
Company incurs advertising and promotional expenses related to demos with customers, trade shows, and promotional allowances. Advertising
and promotional costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising and promotional expenses were $

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees and non-employees in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). All transactions in which the consideration provided in exchange for the purchase of goods or services consists of the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
The Company incurred stock-based compensation in the amount of $ and $ for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosure.” The ASU updated reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through requiring enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used to assess segment performance. The Company adopted ASU No. 2023-07 during the year ended December 31, 2024. See Note 19 “Segment Reporting” in the accompanying Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”. The amendments in this ASU add specific requirements for income tax disclosures to improve transparency and decision usefulness. The guidance in ASU 2023-09 requires that public business entities disclose specific categories in the income tax rate reconciliation and provide additional qualitative information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. In addition, the amendments in ASU 2023-09 require that all entities disclose the amount of income taxes paid disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes and disaggregated by individual jurisdictions. The ASU also includes other disclosure amendments related to the disaggregation of income tax expense between federal, state and foreign taxes. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The amendments in this update should be applied on a prospective basis and retrospective application is permitted. The Company does not expect a material impact to its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows from adoption of this guidance.
In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03 and in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income -Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.” The guidance requires disclosures about specific expense categories, including but not limited to, purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and selling expenses. The ASU is effective in the first annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently assessing the effect that adoption of this guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets” (“ASU 2025-05”) which provides a practical expedient for all entities related to the estimation of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets that arise from transactions accounted for under Topic 606. ASU 2025-05 will be adopted prospectively and will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2026, including interim periods in 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the effect that adoption of this guidance will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 3 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Under FASB ASC 820-10-5, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures. Under GAAP, certain assets and liabilities must be measured at fair value, and FASB ASC 820-10-50 details the disclosures that are required for items measured at fair value.
The Company has cash, notes receivable, derivative liabilities and debts that must be measured under the fair value standard. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The three levels are as follows:
Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The following schedule summarizes the valuation of financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis in the balance sheets as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

Legal Matters
From time to time, the Company may be a party to various legal matters, threatened claims, or proceedings in the normal course of business. Legal fees and other costs associated with such actions are expensed as incurred. The Company assesses the likelihood of outcomes in litigation and makes appropriate accruals and disclosures based on current information and legal counsel’s opinions. There’s no guarantee that these matters won’t significantly impact the Company’s business, financial position, or results of operations. Legal accruals are recorded when and if it is determined that a loss related to a certain matter is both probable and reasonably estimable.
The Company is the subject of a lawsuit recently commenced by its former chief financial officer alleging wrongful termination. Based on information currently available to the Company and the advice of legal counsel, management believes that the outcome of this lawsuit is not probable to result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. While the Company intends to vigorously defend itself against these allegations, the ultimate outcome of the lawsuit is not possible to predict. At this time given the uncertainties inherent in litigation, it is not reasonable to estimate the amount or range of any potential loss, and therefore no liability has been accrued in the accompanying financial statements.
Other than as set forth above, there are no legal matters pending against the Company.

The accounting policies of the retail operations segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 1 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company’s CODM assesses performance and allocates resources for the retail operations segment using segment earnings before net interest expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). The Company defines EBITDA as earnings before interest taxes and depreciation. The Company’s CODM also uses segment EBITDA to measure the operational effectiveness of the Company’s financial model, compare the performance of core operating results between periods, against budget and against competitors and evaluate whether to invest capital in the retail operations segment or in other parts of the Company, such as for share repurchases, debt repayments or capital expenditures. The Company’s CODM is not provided asset information by reportable segment as asset information is provided to the CODM on a consolidated basis. The Company’s capital expenditures are predominately used in the Company’s production operations, rather than its retail operations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the condensed financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. In addition to historical condensed financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.
Overview
BranchOut Food Inc., is reimagining how the world eats fruits and vegetables. We are engaged in the development, marketing, sale and distribution of plant-based, dehydrated fruit and vegetable snacks and powders manufactured in a 50,000 square foot production facility that we lease in Pisco, Peru (the “Peru Facility”). At the Peru Facility, utilizing proprietary GentleDry™ Technology, we are able to turn fresh fruits and vegetables into clean, crunchy snacks and industrial ingredients within just 10 days.
GentleDry™ Technology is an advanced dehydration platform licensed to us exclusively by EnWave Corporation for certain fruits and vegetables. This technology allows us to develop differentiated fruit and vegetable products using optimized GentleDry™ settings that preserve taste, texture, color, and nutrients.
We believe GentleDry™ is superior to traditional freeze-dry processing because it retains:
| ● | three times more natural flavor compounds, | |
| ● | up to 22 times more aromatic compounds, and | |
| ● | up to 95% of original vitamins and antioxidants. |
Additionally, our process speed is faster, making us more energy efficient; our food doesn’t oxidize, preserving the flavor and color; and our technology is protected by more than 17 patents.
Our Products
We plan to continue to grow revenues strategically by penetrating the multi-billion dollar grocery, industrial ingredient and online markets. Our current product line includes:
| ● | BranchOut Snacks: dehydrated fruit and vegetable-based snacks, including Avocado Chips, Chewy Banana Bites, Pineapple Chips, Brussels Sprout Crisps, Strawberry Crisps and Bell Pepper Crisps. | |
| ● | Private Label: Prunes, Carrots, Brussel Sprouts and Raisins sold to major retailers. | |
| ● | BranchOut Industrial Ingredients: Banana, Mango, Blueberry, Pineapple, Cherry Tomato, Avocado and many others. |
We are currently developing many additional products for all sales channels.

Going Concern Uncertainty
As of June 30, 2025, we had a cash balance of $641,129, a positive working capital of $662,217, and had incurred recurring losses from operations resulting in an accumulated deficit of $20,083,595. Although we anticipate that our results of operations will improve substantially as a result of the recent launch of our new facility in Peru, there can be no assurance in that regard. If we continue to generate substantial operating losses, we will not have sufficient funds to sustain our operations for the next twelve months and we will need to raise additional cash to fund our operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Our ability to scale production and distribution capabilities and further increase the value of our brands is largely dependent on our success in raising additional capital.
Peru Facility Lease
On May 10, 2024, we entered into a ten-year lease for the 50,000 square-foot Peru Facility, which commenced operations in December of 2024. The lease of the Peru Facility requires monthly lease payments of $8,000 in the first two years of the lease, $20,000 in the third year of the lease, $22,000 in the fourth year of the lease, $24,000 in the fourth year of the lease, and $25,000 thereafter. The lease also has a 10-year renewal option, and a buy-out option under which the Company plans to exercise the buy-out option and purchase the Peru Facility for $1,865,456.
In connection with the lease of the Peru Facility, we purchased a first position mortgage receivable in the amount of $1,267,000, which is secured by the Peru Facility and was owed by the landlord of the Peru Facility to its former tenant, for a purchase price of $1,267,000, of which payments were made in various installments totaling $355,000 as of December 31, 2024 and $912,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Net Revenue
Our net revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025, was $3,299,738, compared to $1,362,986 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $1,936,752, or 142%. The increase in revenue was primarily due to increased sales to our largest customer during the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit
Our cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2025, was $2,693,279, compared to $1,214,227 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $1,479,052, or 122%. Cost of goods sold increased primarily due to increased sales during the three months ended June 30, 2025. We had gross profit of $606,459, representing gross margins of 18.4%, for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to a gross profit of $148,759, or 10.9%, for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Gross margin increased primarily due to the transition of manufacturing operations from third-party suppliers to our facility located in Pisco, Peru. This insourcing initiative created greater control over production processes, improved product quality, reduced contract manufacturing costs, and improved overall efficiency shortening the production cycle and allowing for faster order fulfillment. As production continues to scale, we expect further margin expansion from manufacturing existing products more efficiently and from our enhanced ability to bring new products to market more quickly.
General and Administrative
Our general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025, was $784,872, compared to $175,758 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $609,114, or 347%. The largest components of our general and administrative expenses are plant idle capacity, rent, travel, and commissions, as shown below.
| Three Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||||||||||
| 2025 | 2024 | Difference | % change | |||||||||||||
| Idle Capacity | $ | 480,320 | $ | - | $ | 480,320 | 100 | % | ||||||||

| Commissions | $ | 72,142 | $ | 47,625 | $ | 12,125 | 51 | % | ||||||||
| 29 |
Idle capacity increased due to the opening of the production facility located in Pisco, Peru. In December 2024 operations commenced at the facility. As our factory scales, idle capacity will decrease. Commissions increased due to increased sales.
Salaries and Wages
Salaries and wages for the three months ended June 30, 2025, was $436,163, compared to $349,597 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $86,566, or 25%. This increase was primarily attributable to $28,494 of amortization of stock options issued to employees for services performed.
Professional Fees
Professional fees for the three months ended June 30, 2025, was $323,062, compared to $304,376 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $18,686, or 6%. The modest increase primarily reflects normal fluctuations in legal, consulting, and accounting expenses and does not represent a significant change in the level of professional services utilized.
Shipping and handling
Shipping and handling for the three months ended June 30, 2025, was $157,807, compared to $88,384 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $69,423 or 79%. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in sales volumes.
Advertising and promotions
Advertising and promotions for the three months ended June 30, 2025, was $250,576, compared to $57,059 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $193,517, or 339%. Advertising and promotions expenses increased for the three months ended June 30, 2025, mostly due to increased in-store product demos with one of our largest customers.
Other Income (Expense)
In the three months ended June 30, 2025, other expense was $257,135 on a net basis, consisting of $263,735 of interest expense, as partially offset by $6,600 of interest income. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, other expense was $116,139 on a net basis, consisting of $118,957 of interest expense, as partially offset by $2,818 of interest income. Other expense increased by $140,996, or 121%, primarily due to the increase of interest on the Kaufman Convertible Note and Notes Payable with related parties.
Net loss
Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2025, was $1,603,156, compared to $942,554 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $660,602, or 70%. The increased net loss was due to scaling up production at our in-house manufacturing facility. Our objective is to achieve 100% utilization, which we believe will allow us to leverage fixed costs, improve operating efficiency, and capture additional gross margin benefits as production volumes grow.

To date, our primary sources of capital have been cash generated from the sales of our products, common stock sales, and debt and equity financing. As of June 30, 2025, we had cash of $641,129, total liabilities of $9,608,777, and an accumulated deficit of $20,083,595.

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $3,942,856 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $1,357,463 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $2,610,442, or 190%. The increase was primarily due to a $1,440,275 increase in accounts receivable due to increased sales volumes and a $548,367 increase in prepaid inventory to secure raw materials.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $491,332 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $566,431 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, a decrease of $75,099, or 13%. This decrease was primarily attributable to $491,332 of equipment purchases, compared to $576,331 of equipment purchases, as partially offset by $9,900 of advances received on notes receivable, in the comparative period.
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $2,717,102 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $2,202,108 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of $514,994, or 23%. Our increased cash provided by financing activities was primarily from $2,423,058 proceeds from the sale of common stock and $1,173,157 from the exercise of warrants, offset by $847,917 of principal repayments on notes payable.
Effect of Exchange Rate Changes on Cash
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents primarily reflects the translation impact from fluctuations in the value of the Peruvian sol relative to the U.S. dollar. During the period, the sol experienced modest depreciation against the U.S. dollar, resulting in a gain on foreign currency translation of $28,763 compared to $58 in the comparative period.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Our financial results are affected by the selection and application of accounting policies and methods. As of April 1, 2025, we changed our manufacturing cost allocation methodology from kilograms produced, to machine hours used in production, to improve costing as we scale product mix and invest in research and development. The change resulted in an immaterial impact to the valuation of inventory and resulting costs of goods sold from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on any such forward-looking statements.
All subsequent forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. Our actual results will likely differ, and may differ materially, from anticipated results. Financial estimates are subject to change and are not intended to be relied upon as predictions of future operating results. All forward-looking statements included in this report are made as of the date hereof and are based on information available to us as of such date. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statement. If we do update or correct one or more forward-looking statements, investors and others should not conclude that we will make additional updates or corrections.

This report includes trademarks, tradenames and service marks that are our property or the property of others. Solely for convenience, such trademarks and tradenames sometimes appear without any “™” or “®” symbol.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls and procedures for our company. Consequently, our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act as of June 30, 2025. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is the subject of a lawsuit recently commenced by its former chief financial officer alleging wrongful termination. Based on information currently available to the Company and the advice of legal counsel, management believes that the outcome of this lawsuit is not probable to result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. While the Company intends to vigorously defend itself against these allegations, the ultimate outcome of the lawsuit is not possible to predict. At this time given the uncertainties inherent in litigation, it is not reasonable to estimate the amount or range of any potential loss, and therefore no liability has been accrued in the accompanying financial statements.
Other than as set forth above, there are no legal matters pending against the Company.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
