NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For
the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022
(Unaudited)
(Amounts rounded to nearest thousands, except share and per share amounts)
NOTE 1 – OPERATIONS AND LIQUIDITY
Sacks Parente Golf, Inc. (“we,” the “Company” or “SPG”) was formed in 2018 as Sacks Parente Golf Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. On March 18, 2022 the Company converted into a Delaware corporation named Sacks Parente Golf, Inc. Pursuant to our Plan of Conversion, on March 18, 2022, all of the outstanding ownership interests in Sacks Parente Golf Company, LLC, and rights to receive such interest were converted into and exchanged for shares of capital stock of Sacks Parente Golf, Inc. The Company retroactively reflected the conversion as of the earliest periods presented herein.
Sacks Parente Golf, Inc. is a technology-forward golf company, with a growing portfolio of golf products, including putting instruments, golf shafts, golf grips, and other golf-related products. In consideration of its growth opportunities in shaft technologies, in April of 2022, the Company expanded its manufacturing business to include advanced premium golf shafts by opening a new shaft manufacturing facility in St. Joseph, MO. It is the Company’s intent to manufacture and assemble substantially all products in the United States. The Company anticipates expansion into golf apparel and other golf related product lines to enhance its growth. The Company’s future expansions may include broadening its offerings through mergers, acquisitions or internal developments of product lines that are complementary to its premium brand.
The Company currently sells its products through resellers, the Company’s websites, and distributors in the United States, Japan, and South Korea.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. We believe that the disclosures contained in these condensed financial statements are adequate to make the information presented herein not misleading. For further information, refer to the financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.
The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures 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 those estimates. Those estimates and assumptions include estimates for reserves of uncollectible accounts receivables, assumptions used in valuing inventories at net realizable value, impairment testing of recorded long-term and tangible and intangible assets, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, accruals for potential liabilities, and assumptions made in valuing stock instruments issued for services.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are generally recorded at the invoiced amounts net of an allowance for expected losses. The Company evaluates the collectability of its trade accounts receivable based on a number of factors. In circumstances where the Company becomes aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations to the Company, a specific reserve for bad debts is estimated and recorded, which reduces the recognized receivable to the estimated amount the Company believes will ultimately be collected. In addition to specific customer identification of potential bad debts, bad debt charges are recorded based on the Company’s historical losses and an overall assessment of past due trade accounts receivable outstanding. The allowance for accounts receivable is established through a provision reducing the carrying value of receivables. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, management determined that no allowance was necessary.
Deferred Offering Costs
Deferred offering costs consist principally of legal, accounting, and underwriters’ fees incurred related to equity financing. These deferred offering costs are deferred and then charged against the gross proceeds received once the equity financing occurs or are charged to expense if the financing does not occur.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). The underlying principle of ASC 606 is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at the amount expected to be collected. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contract(s), which include (1) identifying the contract or agreement with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied.
Revenue and costs of sales are recognized when control of the products transfers to our customer, which generally occurs upon shipment from our facilities. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at that time. The Company does not have any significant contracts with customers requiring performance beyond delivery, and contracts with customers contain no incentives or discounts that could cause revenue to be allocated or adjusted over time. Shipping and handling activities are performed before the customer obtains control of the goods and therefore represent a fulfillment activity rather than a promised service to the customer.
| F-6 |
All of the Company’s products are offered for sale as finished goods only, and there are no performance obligations required post-shipment for customers to derive the expected value from them.
The Company does not allow for returns, except for damaged products when the damage occurred pre-fulfillment. Damaged product returns have historically been insignificant. Because of this, the stand-alone nature of our products, and our assessment of performance obligations and transaction pricing for our sales contracts, we do not currently maintain a contract asset or liability balance for obligations. We assess our contracts and the reasonableness of our conclusions on a quarterly basis.
The following table presents our net sales by revenue source, and the period-over-period percentage change, for the period presented:

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued, using the treasury stock method. Potential common shares are excluded from the computation when their effect is antidilutive.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the calculations of basic and diluted loss per share are the same because potential dilutive securities would have had an anti-dilutive effect. The potentially dilutive securities consisted of the following:

and development costs were $
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company periodically issues stock options to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. The Company accounts for such grants issued and vesting based on ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation whereby the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized for employees as compensation expense on the straight-line basis over the vesting period. The Company recognizes the fair value of stock-based compensation within its Statements of Operations with classification depending on the nature of the services rendered.
The fair value of each option or warrant grant is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company is a private company and lacks company-specific historical and implied volatility information. Therefore, it estimates its expected stock volatility based on the historical volatility of a publicly traded set of peer companies within the agriculture technology industry with characteristics similar to the Company. The expected term of the Company’s stock options has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method for awards that qualify as “plain-vanilla” options. The expected term of stock options granted to non-employees is equal to the contractual term of the option award. The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. Expected dividend yield is zero, based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends and does not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, common shares of the Company were not publicly traded. As such, during the period, the Company estimated the fair value of common stock using an appropriate valuation methodology, in accordance with the framework of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Technical Practice Aid, Valuation of Privately-Held Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation. Each valuation methodology includes estimates and assumptions that require the Company’s judgment. These estimates and assumptions include a number of objective and subjective factors, including external market conditions, guideline public company information, the prices at which the Company sold its common stock to third parties in arms’ length transactions, the rights and preferences of securities senior to the Company’s common stock at the time, and the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event such as an initial public offering or sale. Significant changes to the assumptions used in the valuations could result in different fair values of stock options at each valuation date, as applicable.
| F-8 |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company uses various inputs in determining the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities and measures these assets on a recurring basis. Financial assets recorded at fair value are categorized by the level of subjectivity associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Accounting Standards Codification Section 820 defines the following levels of subjectivity associated with the inputs:
Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2—Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions.
The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable, and other payables, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying values of long-term financing obligations approximate their fair values because interest rates on these obligations are based on prevailing market interest rates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 requires entities to use a forward-looking approach based on current expected credit losses (“CECL”) to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. This may result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. ASU 2016-13 was effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2023. The Company does not believe the impact of the new guidance and related codification improvements had be material effect to its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is designed to provide a reader of the financial statements with a narrative report on our financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the attached unaudited Condensed Financial Statements and notes thereto and our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2022, including the audited Financial Statements and notes thereto. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of our plans, objectives, expectations, and intentions. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Please also see the cautionary language at the beginning of this Quarterly Report regarding forward-looking statements.
Company Overview
Sacks Parente Golf, Inc. (“we,” the “Company” or “SPG”) is a technology-forward golf company, with a growing portfolio of golf products, including putting instruments, golf shafts, golf grips, and other golf related products. In consideration of our growth opportunities in shaft technologies, in April of 2022, we expanded our manufacturing business to include advanced premium golf shafts by opening a new shaft manufacturing facility in St. Joseph, MO. It is our intent to manufacture and assemble substantially all products in the United States. We anticipate expansion into golf apparel and other golf related product lines to enhance our growth. Our future expansions may include broadening our offerings through mergers, acquisitions or internal developments of product lines that are complementary to our premium brand.
On August 14, 2023, we entered into an underwriting agreement with The Benchmark Company for the purchase of shares of the Company’s common stock, in an offering of securities registered under an effective registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the offering, the Company sold 3,200,000 shares of common stock, at a price of $4.00 per share. The offering closed on August 17, 2023, and total proceeds received, net of fees, were $11,594,000 including an underwriting discount of 7% and a non-accountable expenses allowance of 1% based on the aggregate proceeds of the offering.
Key Factors Affecting Our Performance
Seasonality and General Trends in Golf Participation
Because golf is a seasonal sport, our sales are cyclical and unlikely to remain consistent from quarter to quarter. Further, if golf participation decreases or the number of rounds of golf played decreases generally, for any or no reason, sales of our products may be adversely affected. In the future, the overall dollar volume of the market for golf-related products may not grow or may decline. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a surge in golf participation and growth for our industry, but such trend may not continue and future trends are difficult to predict.
Public Company Costs
Our Common Stock will be registered with the SEC and listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market, which will require us to hire additional personnel and implement public company procedures and processes. We expect to incur additional annual expenses as a public company for internal controls compliance and public company reporting obligations, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees and additional internal and external accounting and legal and administrative resources, including increased audit and legal fees.
Impact of Inflation
Recent inflationary trends have led to a moderate increase in some of the component parts used to manufacture our products. To date, we have not passed the increase in cost to our consumers. Continued prolonged periods of inflationary pressure on some or all costs may result in increased costs to produce our products that could have an adverse effect on profits from sales of these products or require us to increase prices for our products that could adversely affect consumer demand for our products.
| 1 |
Impact of Supply Chain Disruption
In February 2021, the US Government blocked all imports from the country of Myanmar. This disruption eliminated our main source of carbon fiber shafts, a crucial component of our putting instruments. While we are unable to quantify the financial impact of lost revenue on our business, this severe disruption limited our ability to acquire inventory to grow our sales. To mitigate similar future disruptions, we recently built a shaft manufacturing facility in St. Joseph, MO, using source materials produced in Japan and South Korea by third parties, which we believe will allow us to reach our business goals without further disruptions.
While we have not had significant other disruptions that materially impacted our financial results, we continue to seek and expand the number of qualified domestic vendors used to source materials.
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022
Net Sales
Our net sales increased $3,000, or 7%, to $47,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $44,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2022.
Cost of goods sold
Cost of goods sold represents primarily our material, component, and license fees for manufacturing our products sold and changes in inventory reserves for slow-moving or potentially obsolete products. Our cost of goods sold increased by $9,000 to $32,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $23,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Our gross margin was 32% and 48% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decline in gross margin was due to the change in inventory reserve and inventory shrinkage as compared to the prior year period.
Operating expenses
Operating expenses include selling, general and administrative expenses, and research and development costs.
Our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $1.1 million to $647,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was from decreased stock-based compensation of $1.2 million, offset by increased salaries expense of $108,000. The remaining decrease in expenses of approximately $22,000 was from routine changes in our selling, general and administrative expenses accounts to support our operations.
Research and development costs include advisors, consultants, and product design and development. Research and development expenses increased $10,000 to $18,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $8,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Interest expense
Interest expense was $22,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $5,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in interest expense was from increased debt balances as compared to the prior year period.

The increase in net sales was primarily from our first-time sales to a distributor in South Korea, which represented approximately $43,000, or 31%, of our net sales during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Cost of goods sold
Cost of goods sold represents primarily our material, component, and license fees for manufacturing our products sold and changes in inventory reserves for slow-moving or potentially obsolete products. Our cost of goods sold increased by $35,000 to $78,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $43,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Our gross margin was 43% and 61% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decline in gross margin was due to the change in inventory reserve and inventory shrinkage as compared to the prior year period.
Operating expenses
Operating expenses include selling, general and administrative expenses, and research and development costs.
Our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $346,000 to $1.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

The remaining decrease in expenses of approximately $3,000 was from routine changes in our selling, general and administrative expenses accounts to support our operations.

Loss from operations decreased to $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Such assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a net loss of $1,589,000, used cash in operations of $313,000, and has a stockholders’ deficit of $3,019,000 as of that date. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of the financial statements being issued. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional funds and implement its business plan. As a result, we concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, has also expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
| 6 |
At June 30, 2023, we had cash on hand in the amount of $9,000. Subsequent to June 30, 2023, we received net proceeds of $11,594,000 on the sale of its common stock. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain necessary debt or equity financing to continue operations until it begins generating positive cash flow. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to us. Even if we are able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in case of equity financing.
On August 14, 2023, we entered into an underwriting agreement with The Benchmark Company for the purchase of shares of the Company’s common stock, in an offering of securities registered under an effective registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the offering, the Company sold 3,200,000 shares of common stock, at a price of $4.00 per share. The offering closed on August 17, 2023, and total proceeds received, net of fees, were $11,594,000 including an underwriting discount of 7% and a non-accountable expenses allowance of 1% based on the aggregate proceeds of the offering.
Based on current operating plans, the Company estimates that existing cash resources, together with the proceeds from the Company’s initial public offering will provide sufficient working capital through approximately June 2025. However, the Company’s operating plans may change as a result of many factors that are currently unknown and or outside the control of the Company, and additional funds may be needed sooner than planned.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any transactions, obligations or relationships that could be considered off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared and audited in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, stockholders’ equity, revenues and expenses, as well as related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may materially differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. On an ongoing basis, we review our estimates to ensure that the estimates appropriately reflect changes in our business and new information as it becomes available.
Management believes the critical accounting estimates discussed below affect its more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
We account for revenue recognition in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.”
The amount of revenue we recognize is based on the amount of consideration we expect to receive from customers. The amount of consideration is the sales price adjusted for estimates of variable consideration, including sales returns, discounts and allowances as well as sales programs, sales promotions and price concessions that we offer, as described further below. These estimates are based on amounts earned or expected to be claimed by customers on the related sales, and are therefore recorded to the respective net revenue, trade accounts receivable, and sales program liability accounts.
We may offer short-term sales program incentives, which include sell-through promotions and price concessions or price reductions. Sell-through promotions are generally offered throughout a product’s life cycle, which varies from two to three years but could be shorter or longer. Price concessions or price reductions are generally offered at the end of the product’s life cycle. The estimated variable consideration related to these potential programs will be based on a rate that includes historical and forecasted data. We may record a reduction to net revenues using this rate at the time of the sale. We will monitor this rate against actual results and forecasted estimates and adjusts the rate as necessary in order to reflect the amount of consideration it expects to receive from its customers.
| 7 |
We also may record an estimate for anticipated returns as a reduction of sales and cost of sales, and accounts receivable in the period that the related sales are recorded. The cost recovery of inventory associated with this reserve will be accounted for in other current assets. Sales returns will be estimated based upon historical returns, current economic trends, changes in customer demands and sell-through of products. We also may offer certain customers sales programs that would allow for specific returns. We may record a return reserve for anticipated returns related to these sales programs at the time of the sale based on the terms of the sales program.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, which includes a reserve for excess, obsolete and/or unmarketable inventory. We estimate the reserve based upon current inventory levels, sales trends and historical experience as well as management’s estimates of market conditions and forecasts of future product demand, all of which are subject to change. The calculation of our reserve for excess, obsolete and/or unmarketable inventory requires management to make assumptions and to apply judgment regarding inventory aging, forecasted consumer demand and pricing, regulatory (USGA and R&A) rule changes, the promotional environment and technological obsolescence. We do not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a material change in the future estimates or assumptions used to calculate the reserve. However, if estimates regarding consumer demand are inaccurate or change, we may need to increase its inventory allowance, which could significantly adversely affect we operating results.
Cost of Products
Our cost of products is comprised primarily of material, component and license fees. Historically, our manufacturing costs, primarily material and component costs, are variable in nature and will fluctuate with sales volumes. Generally, the relative significance of the components cost of products do not vary materially from period to period. However, with the current inflation pressures on current economic outlook, this could change.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2 of the Notes to Condensed Financial Statements for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure control and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2023, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control systems are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, no evaluation of internal control over financial reporting can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been or will be detected.
| 8 |
These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
