Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), and the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by U.S. GAAP can be condensed or omitted. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. They should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 31,2024 (the “Form 10-K”).
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that management considers necessary for a fair presentation of its condensed financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Splash and its wholly owned subsidiaries Splash Beverage Holdings LLC (“Holdings”), Splash International Holdings LLC (“International”), Splash Mex SA de CV (“Splash Mex”), and Copa di Vino Wine Group, Inc. (“Copa di Vino”). All intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Our investment in Salt Tequila USA, LLC is accounted for at cost, as the company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence.
Our accounting and reporting policies confirm to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash Equivalents and Concentration of Cash Balance
The Company considers all highly liquid securities
with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had
Our cash in bank deposit accounts, at times, may exceed federally insured limits of $250,000. At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s cash on deposit with financial institutions, at times, had not exceeded federally insured limits of $250,000.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable are carried at their estimated
recoverable amounts and are periodically evaluated for collectability based on past credit history with clients and other factors. The
Company establishes provisions for losses on accounts receivable on the basis of loss experience, known and inherent risk in the account
balance, and current economic conditions. At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, our accounts receivable amounts are reflected net of
allowances of $
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable
value, accounted for using the weighted average cost method. The inventory balances at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 consisted of
raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods held for distribution. The cost elements of inventory consist of purchase of products,
transportation, and warehousing. The Company establish provisions for excess or inventory near expiration are based on management’s
estimates of forecast turnover of inventories on hand and under contract. A significant change in the timing or level of demand for certain
products as compared to forecast amounts may result in recording additional provisions for excess or expired inventory in the future.
Provisions for excess inventory are included in cost of goods sold and have historically been adequate to provide for losses on inventory. The
Company manages inventory levels and purchase commitments in an effort to maximize utilization of inventory on hand and under commitments.
The amount of our reserve was $
Property and Equipment
The Company records property and equipment at cost when purchased. Depreciation is recorded for property, equipment, and software using the straight-line method over the estimated economic useful lives of assets, which range from 3-39 years. Company management reviews the recoverability of all long-lived assets, including the related useful lives, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset might not be recoverable.

Excise taxes
The Company pays alcohol excise taxes based on product sales to both the Oregon Liquor Control Commission and to the U.S. Department of the Treasury, Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB). The Company also pays taxes to the State of Florida – Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco. The Company is liable for the taxes upon the removal of product from the Company’s warehouse on a per gallon basis. The federal tax rate is affected by a small winery tax credit provision which decreases based upon the number of gallons of wine production in a year rather than the quantity sold.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Financial Accounting Standards (“FASB”) guidance specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
| Level 1 - | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments whose value is based on quoted market prices such as exchange-traded instruments and listed equities. | |
| Level 2 - | Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly (e.g., quoted prices of similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active). | |
| Level 3 - | Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Financial instruments are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flows or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable. |
The liabilities and indebtedness presented on the condensed consolidated financial statements approximate fair values at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, consistent with recent negotiations of notes payable and due to the short duration of maturities and market rates of interest.
Embedded debt costs in convertible debt instruments
In August 2020, the FASB issued “ASU 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)” (“ASU 2020-06”) which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments. The guidance removes certain accounting models which separate the embedded conversion features from the host contract for convertible instruments. Either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective method of transition was permissible for the adoption of this standard. Update No. 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption was permitted no earlier than the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company has adopted ASU 2020-06 effective January 1, 2024 and has removed the effects of any embedded conversion features from certain of our convertible instruments.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This guidance sets forth a five-step model which depicts the recognition of revenue in an amount that reflects what the Company expects to receive in exchange for the transfer of goods or services to customers.
The Company recognizes revenue when the Company’s performance obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied. Product sales occur for the Splash Beverage and E-commerce businesses once control of the Company’s products are transferred upon delivery to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods, and revenue is presented net of provisions for customer returns and allowances. The amount of consideration the Company receives and revenue the Company recognizes varies with changes in customer incentives offered to the Company’s customers and their customers. Sales taxes and other similar taxes are excluded from revenue.

Distribution expenses to transport our products, and warehousing expense after manufacture are accounted for in Other General and Administrative cost.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold include the costs of products, packaging, transportation, warehousing, and costs associated with valuation allowances for expired, damaged or impaired inventory. The cost of transportation from production site to other 3rd party warehouses or customer is included in Other General and Administrative cost.
Other General and Administrative Expenses
Other General and Administrative expenses includes Amazon selling fees, royalty cost for selling TapouT, cost associated with the outbound shipping and handling of finished goods, insurance cost, consulting cost, legal and audit fees, investor relations expenses, travel & entertainment expenses, occupancy cost and other costs.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, ”Compensation - Stock Compensation”. Under the fair value recognition provisions, cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense ratably over the requisite service period, which is generally the award’s vesting period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock-based awards.
We measure stock-based awards at the grant-date fair value for employees, directors and consultants and recognize compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award. Determining the appropriate fair value of stock-based awards requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the fair value of our common stock, and for stock options and warrants, the expected life of the option and warrant, and expected stock price volatility and exercise price. We used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value its stock-based awards. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent management’s best estimates and involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. As a result, if factors change and management uses different assumptions, stock-based compensation expense could be materially different for future awards. The expected life of stock options/warrants were estimated using the “simplified method,” which calculates the expected term as the midpoint between the weighted average time to vesting and the contractual maturity, we have limited historical information to develop reasonable expectations about future exercise patterns. The simplified method is based on the average of the vesting tranches and the contractual life of each grant. For stock price volatility, we use comparable public companies as a basis for its expected volatility to calculate the fair value of award. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury notes with a term approximating the expected life of the award. The estimation of the number of awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent actual results or updated estimates differ from the Company’s current estimates, such amounts are recognized as an adjustment in the period in which estimates are revised.
Income Taxes
The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in ASC 740, ”Income Taxes”. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates expected to be in effect during the years in which the basis differences reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized.
Company management assesses its income tax positions and records tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon its evaluation of the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date. In accordance with ASC 740-10, for those tax positions where there is a greater than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, our policy is to record the largest amount of tax benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information.

The net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Warrants, stock options, and common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Company’s convertible debt or preferred stock (if any), are not included in the computation if the effect would be anti-dilutive.
Weighted average number of shares outstanding excludes anti-dilutive common stock equivalents, including warrants to purchase shares of common stock and warrants granted by our Board that have not been exercised totaling .
Advertising
The Company conducts advertising for the promotion
of its products. In accordance with ASC 720-35, advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. For the three months ended
June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 the Company recorded advertising expenses of $
Goodwill and Intangibles Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of the net assets acquired and is not subject to amortization. The Company reviews goodwill annually in the fourth quarter for impairment or when circumstances indicate carrying value may exceed the fair value. This evaluation is performed at the reporting unit level. If a qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than carrying value, a quantitative analysis is completed using either the income or market approach, or a combination of both. The income approach estimates fair value based on expected discounted future cash flows, while the market approach uses comparable public companies and transactions to develop metrics to be applied to historical and expected future operating results.
The gross amounts and accumulated amortization of the Company’s acquired identifiable intangible assets with finite useful lives, included in other intangible assets, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, were as follows:

| Finite: | (in years) | |||||||||||
| Brands | $ | $ | ||||||||||
| Customer Relationships | ||||||||||||
| License | ||||||||||||
| Total Intangible Assets | $ | $ | ||||||||||
At the time of acquisition, the Company estimates
the fair value of the acquired identifiable intangible assets based upon the facts and circumstances related to the particular intangible
asset. Inherent in such estimates are judgments and estimates of future revenue, profitability, cash flows and appropriate discount rates
for any present value calculations. The Company preliminarily estimates the value of the acquired identifiable intangible assets and then
finalizes the estimated fair values during the purchase allocation period, which does not extend beyond

Long-lived assets
The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances may indicate the carrying amount of the asset group, generally an individual warehouse, may not be fully recoverable. For asset groups held and used, including warehouses to be relocated, the carrying value of the asset group is considered recoverable when the estimated future undiscounted cash flows generated from the use and eventual disposition of the asset group exceed the respective carrying value. In the event that the carrying value is not considered recoverable, an impairment loss is recognized for the asset group to be held and used equal to the excess of the carrying value above the estimated fair value of the asset group. For asset groups classified as held-for-sale (disposal group), the carrying value is compared to the disposal group’s fair value less costs to sell. The Company estimates fair value by obtaining market appraisals from third party brokers or using other valuation techniques.
Foreign Currency Gains/Losses
Foreign Currency Gains/Losses — foreign subsidiaries’
functional currency is the local currency of operations and the net assets of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars using
current exchange rates. Gains or losses from these translation adjustments are included in the condensed consolidated statement of operations
and other comprehensive loss as foreign currency translation gains or losses. Translation gains and losses that arise from the translation
of net assets from functional currency to the reporting currency, as well as exchange gains and losses on intercompany balances, are included
in foreign currency translation in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company incurred foreign
currency translation net gain of $
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern Considerations
The Company’s consolidated financial statements

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued
The Company received approximately $
Management’s plans in regard to these matters include actions to sustain the Company’s operations, such as seeking additional funding to meet its obligations and implement its business plan. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in implementing its plans or in raising additional funds. If the Company is unable to raise additional funding to meet its working capital needs in the future, it may be forced to delay, reduce, or cease its operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If the Company is unable to continue as a going concern, adjustments would be necessary to the carrying values of its assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses could be materially affected.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued “ASU 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)” (“ASU 2020-06”) which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments. The guidance removes certain accounting models which separate the embedded conversion features from the host contract for convertible instruments. Either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective method of transition was permissible for the adoption of this standard.
Update No. 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption was permitted no earlier than the fiscal
year beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company has adopted ASU 2020-06 effective January 1, 2024, the Company recorded approximately

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Financial Statements (unaudited) and Notes to Condensed Financial Statements (unaudited) filed herewith.
Business Overview
Splash Beverage Group, Inc. (the “Company”, “Splash”) seeks to identify, acquire, and build early stage or under-valued beverage brands that have strong growth potential within its distribution system. Splash’s distribution system is comprehensive in the US and is now expanding to select attractive international markets. Through its division Qplash, Splash’s distribution reach includes e-commerce access to both business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) customers. Qplash markets well known beverage brands to customers throughout the US that prefer delivery direct to their office, facilities; and or homes.
Results of Operations for the Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 compared to Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 2023.
Revenue
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2024 were approximately $1.1 million compared to revenues of approximately $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Part of the $4.1 million decrease in sales is due to a decrease in our beverage sales of $0.1 million. Additionally, revenues from our vertically integrated B2B and B2C e-commerce distribution platform called Qplash decreased approximately $4.0 million or 97.5% due to low inventory. Total sales declined due to limited liquidity to procure inventory to drive third-party sales.
Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $2.6 million compared to revenues of $11 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The $8.4 million decrease in sales is driven by decreases in both the e-commerce and beverage businesses which decreased $7.6 million and $0.8 million respectively. Qplash’s decreased revenue due to low inventory.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $0.8 million compared to cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2023 of $3.4 million. The $2.6 million decrease in cost of goods sold for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 was driven by decreased sales.
19
Cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $2.2 million compared to cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 2023 of $7.5 million. The $5.3 million decrease in cost of goods sold for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 was driven by decreased sales in both the e-commerce and beverage business.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $3.9 million compared to $6.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 a decrease of $2.1 million. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to a reduction in marketing expense, freight cost and Amazon selling fees partially offset by increases for the non-cash expenses.
Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $7.3 million compared to $11.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 a decrease of $3.9 million. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to marketing expense, contracted services, freight cost and Amazon selling fees partially offset by increases for the non-cash expenses.
The net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $5.3 million as compared to a net loss of approximately $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in net loss is due to lower debt discount expense. The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $10 million as compared to a net loss of approximately $9.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in net loss is due to higher debt discount and interest expenses.
Net Other Income and Expense
Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $0.6 million and $1.2 million respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 the interest expenses was $0.2 million and $0.3 million respectively due to additional convertible notes issued in 2024.
Interest expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $0.6 million compared to $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The $0.4 million increase in interest expense is due to new loans with a principal of $3.2 million. Interest expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $1.2 million compared to $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The $0.9 million increase in interest expense is due to new loans with a principal of $4.7 million with higher interest rates.
Other expenses were $0.0 and $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 respectively.. Other expenses were $0.2 and other income was $0.05 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 respectively. The income in 2023 was related to an insurance settlement.
Amortization of debt discount for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was approximately $1.0 million compared to $1.1 million for three months ended June 30, 2023. Amortization of debt discount for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was approximately $1.9 million compared to $1.4 million for six months ended June 30, 2023.
LIQUIDITY, GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. Significant factors in the management of liquidity are funds generated by operations, levels of accounts receivable and accounts payable and capital expenditures.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had total cash and cash equivalents of $8,298, as compared with $379,978 at December 31, 2023.
Net cash used for operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $3.8 million as compared to the net cash used by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 of $6.5 million. The primary reasons for the change in net cash used were reduced operating expenses, lower procurement of raw material and finished goods.
20
For the period ending June 30, 2024, $1,500 furniture was returned to vendor. For the period June 30, 2023, the Company had leasehold improvements of $12,613 related to our Copa Di Vino production site.
Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $3.4 million compared to $3.0 million provided from financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company received $4.7 million for convertible note, which was offset by repayments to debt holders of $1.3 million and $0.03 million to related party cash advance.
The Company plans to raise up to $8.0 million to fund acquisitions, equipment purchases and working capital.
In order to have sufficient cash to fund our operations, the Company will need to raise additional equity or debt capital. There can be no assurance that additional funds will be available when needed from any source or, if available, will be available on terms that are acceptable to us. The Company will be required to pursue sources of additional capital through various means, including debt or equity financings. Future financings through equity investments are likely to be dilutive to existing stockholders. Also, the terms of securities the Company may issue in future capital transactions may be more favorable for new investors. Newly issued securities may include preferences, superior voting rights, the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities, and the issuances of incentive awards under equity employee incentive plans, which may have additional dilutive effects. Further, the Company may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital and/or financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs. The Company may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities the Company may issue, such as convertible notes and warrants, which will adversely impact our financial condition. Our ability to obtain needed financing may be impaired by such factors as the capital markets and our history of losses, which could impact the availability or cost of future financings. If the amount of capital the Company are able to raise from financing activities together with our revenues from operations, is not sufficient to satisfy our capital needs, even to the extent that the Company reduce our operations accordingly, the Company may be required to curtail or cease operations. As a result, there is uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to maintain liquidity sufficient to operate its business effectively, which raises substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least twelve months from the date of the consolidated financial statements being available to be issued.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
Minimum Royalty Payments:
The Company have a licensing agreement with ABG TapouT, LLC (“TapouT”). Under the licensing agreement, the Company has minimum royalty payments to TapouT of $330,000 for the six months remaining in 2024.
Inventory Purchase Commitments:
None.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements (as that term is defined in Item 303 of Regulation S-K) that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
21
Revenue
The Company faces significant judgment in revenue recognition due to the complexities of the beverage industry’s competitive landscape and diverse distribution channels. Determining the timing of revenue recognition involves assessing factors such as control transfer, returns, allowances, trade promotions, and distributor sell-through data. Historical analysis, market trends assessment, and contractual term evaluations inform revenue recognition judgments. However, inherent uncertainties persist, underscoring the critical nature of revenue recognition as it significantly impacts financial statements and performance evaluation.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The allowance for doubtful accounts is established based on historical experience, current economic conditions, and specific customer collection issues. Management evaluates the collectability of accounts receivable on an ongoing basis and adjusts the allowance as necessary. Changes in economic conditions or customer creditworthiness could result in adjustments to the allowance for doubtful accounts, impacting our reported financial results.
Inventory Valuation
We value inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Estimating the net realizable value of inventory involves significant judgment, particularly when market conditions change rapidly or when excess or obsolete inventory exists. Management regularly assesses inventory quantities on hand, future demand forecasts, and market conditions to determine whether write-downs to inventory are necessary.
Fair Value Measurements
We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurements involve significant judgment and estimation, particularly when observable inputs are limited or not available. Management utilizes valuation techniques such as discounted cash flow models, market comparable, and third-party appraisals to determine fair values.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not required for Smaller Reporting Companies.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of the principal executive and principal financial officers, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a – 15(e) and 15d – 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of our disclosure control system are met. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, because of certain material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2024. The material weaknesses relate to a lack of segregation of duties between accounting and other functions and the absence of sufficient depth of in-house accounting personnel with the ability to properly account for complex transactions.
