To the Stockholders
Bloomia B.V. and Subsidiaries
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Bloomia B.V. and Subsidiaries (the Company), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Bloomia B.V. and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of Bloomia B.V. and Subsidiaries and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Responsibilities of Management for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about Bloomia B.V. and Subsidiaries’ ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are available to be issued.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the consolidated financial statements.
| 3 |
| Table of Contents |
In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, we:
|
| · | Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audits. |
|
| · | Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. |
|
| · | Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. |
|
| · | Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. |
|
| · | Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. |
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control related matters that we identified during the audits.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2023.

Note 1 — Organization and Business Operations
Bloomia B.V (“Bloomia”) is a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands. Bloomia is one of the largest producers of fresh cut tulips in the United States of America (“USA”), nurturing over 75 million stems annually. Operations are primarily in the USA with a presence in the Netherlands and South Africa. Bloomia purchases tulip bulbs, hydroponically grows tulips from the bulbs, and sells the stems to retail stores.
At June 30, 2023, Bloomia had two wholly owned subsidiaries, Bloomia PTY Ltd and Fresh Tulips USA, LLC (“Fresh Tulips”) and a 30% ownership stake in Bloomia Araucania Flowers SA (“Araucania”), together (the “Company”).
Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the Unites States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and includes the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Entities for which the Company owns an interest, but does not consolidate, are accounted for under the equity method and are included in equity-method investments within the consolidated balance sheets. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
On February 22, 2024, the Company was acquired by Tulp 24.1 LLC, a subsidiary of Lendway, Inc. (“Lendway”).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the assumptions used in the measurement of right-of-use assets and liabilities and estimated lives of depreciable and amortizable assets.
Foreign Currency Transactions
Transactions and balances that are denominated in currencies that differ from the functional currencies have been remeasured into US dollars in accordance with principles set forth in ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. At each balance sheet date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, while income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the periods presented. All exchange gains and losses from the remeasurement mentioned above are reflected in the consolidated statement of operations as foreign exchange expenses or income, as appropriate.
The revenues of the Company and most of its subsidiaries are generated in US dollars. In addition, most of the costs of the Company and most of its subsidiaries are incurred in US dollars. The Company’s management has established that the US dollar is the primary currency of the economic environment in which the Company and most of its subsidiaries operate. Thus, the functional currency of the Company and most of its subsidiaries is the US dollar.
For subsidiaries whose functional currency has been determined to be other than the US dollar, assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates, the consolidated statement of operations items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the year, and equity is translated at blended historical rates. Resulting translation differences are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in equity.

| Table of Contents |
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits with banks and negotiable order of withdrawal accounts.
Accounts Receivable, net
Accounts receivable are presented in the balance sheets at their outstanding balances net of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined through an evaluation of the aging of the Company’s accounts receivable balances, and considers such factors as the customer’s creditworthiness, the customer’s payment history and current economic conditions. Bad debt written-off and any recovery of bad debt write-off is applied to the allowance for doubtful accounts. At June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $60 and $12, respectively.
Inventories
Raw materials consist primarily of tulip bulbs, including freight, and packaging supplies. Work-in-process consists of tulip stems and bulbs that have rooted. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, as determined on the first-in, first-out method, or net realizable value. Finished goods and work-in-process include the inventory costs of raw materials, direct labor and normal manufacturing overhead. Abnormal amounts of spoilage are expensed as incurred and not included in overhead.
Property and Equipment, net
Property and equipment, net are stated at historical cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Bushes refer to peony plants, which accumulate planting and development costs that are capitalized into their basis until they become commercially productive, at which point the asset begins depreciating, and future maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Planting costs consist primarily of the costs to purchase and plant nursery stock. Development costs consist of cultivation, pruning, irrigation, labor, spraying and fertilization, and interest costs during the development period. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the remaining lease term (including renewals that are reasonably certain to occur) or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. The estimated useful lives of property and equipment are as follows:
| Estimated Useful life | |
| Leasehold improvements | 15 years |
| Bushes | 7-10 years |
| Machinery and equipment | 5-20 years |
| Vehicles | 5 years |
| Furniture and fixtures | 5-7 years |
Long-Lived Assets Impairment
The Company reviews long-lived assets with finite lives for impairment in accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment.” The analysis to determine whether or not an asset is impaired requires significant judgment that is dependent on internal forecasts, including estimated future cash flows, estimates of long-term growth rates for the business, and the expected life over which cash flows will be realized. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and any impairment charge. While the gross undiscounted future cash flows of these assets exceeds their carrying value based on the Company’s current estimates and assumptions, materially different estimates and assumptions in the future in response to changing economic conditions, changes in the business, increased competition or loss of market share, product innovation or obsolescence, product claims that result in a significant loss of sales or profitability over the product life or for other reasons could result in the recognition of impairment losses.
| 10 |
| Table of Contents |
For assets to be held and used, including long-lived assets subject to amortization, the Company initiates a review of each individual asset-group whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of an asset is measured by comparison of its carrying amount, to the future undiscounted cash flows that the asset is expected to generate. Any impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Significant management judgment is required in this process. During the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, no impairment losses were identified.
Investments
Investments are accounted for using the equity method of accounting if the investment gives the Company the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company records its investments in equity-method investees in the consolidated balance sheets as equity method investments and its share of investees’ earnings or losses together with other-than-temporary impairments in value, are recorded in equity in net income of unconsolidated investments. Basis differences between the carrying amount and our ownership interest in the underlying net assets of the investee, and any gain or loss from the sale of an equity-method investment is reported as Gain on sale of equity investment in net income of unconsolidated investments in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company evaluates its equity-method investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of such investments may be impaired. If a decline in the value of an equity-method investment is determined to be other than temporary, a loss is recorded in earnings in the current period.
Investments in joint ventures of immaterial entities are estimated based upon the overall performance of the entity where financial results are not available on a timely basis.
Fair Value
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
|
| · | Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date. |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. |
The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair values at June 30, 2023 and 2022 due to their short-term nature and management’s belief that their carrying amounts approximate the amount for which the assets could be sold or the liabilities could be settled. See Note 13 – Derivative Financial Instruments for the fair value of derivative financial instruments.
Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with FASB Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” (ASC 606), using the following steps:
|
| · | Identify the contract or contracts, with a customer; |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Identify the performance obligations in the contract; |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Determine the transaction price; |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation. |
| 11 |
| Table of Contents |
Revenues from the sale of stems
The Company recognizes revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract with its customer are satisfied; this occurs with the transfer of control of its tulips. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring products. Revenue from product sales is governed primarily by customer pricing and related purchase orders (“contracts”) which specify shipping terms and the transaction price. Contracts are at standalone pricing. The performance obligation in these contracts is determined by each of the individual purchase orders and the respective stated quantities, with revenue being recognized at a point in time when obligations under the terms of the agreement are satisfied. This generally occurs with the transfer of control of stems to the customer when the product is delivered, with payments from customers being collected between 30-60 days following the transfer of control.
The Company expenses the incremental costs of obtaining a contract, if the amortization period is one year or less. These costs are included in sales and marketing expense on the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Other Comprehensive Income.
The Company had opening contract asset balances of $4,395 and $2,405 for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Cost of Sales
Cost of sales consists primarily of costs to procure, sort, pick, cool and transport bulbs. Additionally, cost of sales includes labor and facility costs related to production operations.
Shipping and Handling
The Company’s shipping and handling costs include costs incurred with third-party carriers to transport products to customers. The costs of out-bound freight are included in the cost of goods sold in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. For the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the costs of out-bound freight were $3,232 and $3,298, respectively.
Advertising Costs
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. These costs are included within sales and marketing expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Total advertising expense was approximately $46 and $65 for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company uses the liability method to account for income taxes as prescribed by ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax expense (benefit) is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are adjusted to recognize the effects of changes in tax laws or enacted tax rates in the period during which they are signed into law. In determining the Company’s ability to realize its deferred tax assets, the Company considers any available tax planning strategies that could be implemented. Under ASC 740 a valuation allowance is required when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized due to the inability to generate sufficient future taxable income of the correct character. Failure to achieve previously forecasted taxable income could affect the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets and could negatively impact the Company’s effective tax rate on future earnings.
The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
| 12 |
| Table of Contents |
Interest income or expense/penalties attributable to the overpayment or underpayment, respectively, of income taxes is recognized as an element of the Company’s provision for income taxes.
As a multinational corporation, we are subject to taxation in many jurisdictions, and the calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations in various taxing jurisdictions. If we ultimately determine that the payment of these liabilities will be unnecessary, the liability will be reversed, and we will recognize a tax benefit during the period in which it is determined the liability no longer applies. Conversely, the Company records additional tax charges in a period in which it is determined that a recorded tax liability is less than the ultimate assessment is expected to be.
The application of tax laws and regulations is subject to legal and factual interpretation, judgment and uncertainty. Tax laws and regulations themselves are subject to change as a result of changes in fiscal policy, changes in legislation, the evolution of regulations and court rulings. Therefore, the actual liability for U.S. or foreign taxes may be materially different from management’s estimates, which could result in the need to record additional tax liabilities or potentially reverse previously recorded tax liabilities.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities by lessees for certain leases classified as operating leases and also requires expanded disclosures regarding leasing activities. The Company has adopted the standard effective July 1, 2022, using the modified retrospective approach. All comparative periods prior to July 1, 2022 are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with ASC 840, Leases.
The Company has elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allows the Company to carry forward the historical lease classification and initial direct costs treatment at transition. The Company has also made an accounting policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less from the consolidated balance sheet. The Company will recognize those lease payments in the consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Lease payments may include future escalations based on an index or other rate (such as the consumer price index), which the Company initially measures using the index or rate at lease commencement. Subsequent changes or other periodic market-rate adjustments to base rent are recorded as variable lease expense in the period incurred. Residual value guarantees or payments for terminating the lease are included in the lease liability only when it is probable they will be incurred. Lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets (“ROU”) are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected lease term. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is sometimes not readily determinable. In such cases, the Company utilizes the appropriate incremental borrowing rate, which is the rate incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The ROU assets are also adjusted for any initial direct costs incurred and lease payments made at or before the commencement date and are reduced by lease incentives received.
The Company’s leases may include a non-lease component representing additional services transferred to the Company, such as common area maintenance for real estate. The Company has made an accounting policy election to account for lease and non-lease components in its contracts as a single lease component for real estate asset related leases. The Company has elected to separate all lease and non-lease components for all other asset classes. The non-lease components, which are typically variable in nature, are recorded in variable lease expense in the period incurred.
The adoption of the standard resulted in recording operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities of $33,952 and $34,579, respectively on July 1, 2022. The adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income or consolidated statement of cash flows.
| 13 |
| Table of Contents |
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which removes certain exceptions for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intraperiod allocation and calculating income taxes in interim periods. The ASU also adds guidance to reduce complexity in certain areas, including recognizing deferred taxes for tax goodwill and allocating taxes to members of a consolidated group. ASU 2019-12 is effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 on July 1, 2022 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326). This standard requires a new method for recognizing credit losses that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) method. The CECL method requires the recognition of all losses expected over the life of a financial instrument upon origination or purchase of the instrument unless the Company elects to recognize such instruments at fair value with changes in profit and loss (the fair value option). This standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company believes the adoption of ASC 2016-13 will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740)—Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The ASU requires that an entity disclose specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation as well as provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Further, the ASU requires certain disclosures of state versus federal income tax expense and taxes paid. The amendments in this ASU are required to be adopted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis although retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the ASU 2023-09 adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

Araucanía serves as a marketing arm for the Company to export its crops to Latin America countries. Araucanía supplies tulips primarily to Latin America countries via wholesale and online sales. Araucanía has two other shareholders that hold 70% of its aggregate issued and outstanding shares. In 2019, the Company entered into a debt agreement with Araucanía in exchange for the cumulative balance of unpaid invoices. The debt agreement with Araucanía was for the principal amount of approximately $274 bearing interest rate at 4% per annum. The debt agreement has a repayment term of five years with monthly principal payments. In 2022, Araucanía borrowed an additional $153 from the company in exchange for unpaid invoices; resulting in the increase to the principal amount owed on the loan. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the loan to Araucanía had a balance of approximately $202 and $284, respectively. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had trade receivables from Araucanía of approximately $241 and $221, respectively; for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had sales to Araucanía of approximately $100 and $149, respectively.

The Company owned a 100% interest in Viridus Fortuna LLC (“Viridus”). Viridus is a single member limited liability company whose sole member was Fresh Tulips. Viridus was a pass-through entity that held the Company’s 50% ownership interest in Horti-Group USA LLC (“Horti-Group”) and had no significant assets or operations of its own. Horti-Group is a limited liability company (treated as a partnership for US income taxes) whose two members were Viridus and V-Maxx LLC (“V-Maxx”) (the managing member and unrelated entity). Horti-Group operates a 45 acre facility near Washington D.C. that the Company utilizes to grow and distribute its tulips to North American customers. On July 1, 2021, Fresh Tulips entered into a lease with Horti-Group for the greenhouse facility. The initial lease term is 7.5 years commencing July 1, 2021, and terminating on December 31, 2028; Fresh Tulips has the option to extend the lease for an additional 10 years. The monthly rent expense was initially $272 and increases 2% each year. On July 1, 2022, as amended, Fresh Tulips issued a loan to Horti-Group for an amount of $1,500, bearing interest of 5.0% per annum. The purpose of the loan was to provide Horti-Group capital to invest in a container system in its greenhouses. The loan was repaid during the twelve months ended June 30, 2023 via reductions to Fresh Tulips monthly rent payable.
Pursuant to a purchase agreement on July 1, 2021, as amended on July 1, 2022, and as addended on January 1, 2023, Fresh Tulips agreed to sell, convey, and transfer to V-Maxx its membership interest in Viridus and its ownership interest in Horti-Group with the sale to be effective on March 31, 2023, or such earlier date as agreed. At such time, V-Maxx would become the sole, absolute and unconditional owner of Viridus and thus its ownership interest in Horti-Group together with any and all other rights or interests Bloomia had in Viridus. On February 9, 2023 the sale was consummated and Bloomia sold and conveyed its ownership interest in Viridus and Horti-Group to V-Maxx for a purchase price of $2,500. The purchase price was seller-financed via the issuance of an interest-free loan from Fresh Tulips to V-Maxx with an original principal amount $2,500. The loan to V-Maxx is to be repaid in 17 monthly instalments of $150 for the first 16 months and $100 for the last month, with the first payment on April 1, 2023 and the last payment on August 1, 2024. At June 30, 2023, the balance of the loan was $1,900. Due to the Company’s significant influence, but not controlling interest, in Horti-Group, the Company’s investment in Horti-Group was accounted for using the equity method. The Company recorded a gain on the sale of the equity-method investment of $2,500 on the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended June 30, 2023.

This credit agreement was executed to replace a line of credit (“2022 Credit Agreement”) from the prior year that was set to expire in August of 2023. Available borrowing limits (translated from Euros at the spot rate as of June 30, 2023) are as follows:

| - | May 1, 2024 to August 31, 2024: $ 272,100 |
Under the 2023 Credit Agreement, interest payments are due monthly, and interest on the borrowings consist of the average one-month Euro Interbank Offered Rate (“EURIBOR”) as determined during a month and a surcharge of 3.00%. At June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, there were no borrowings outstanding, and interest expense for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were $111 and $37, respectively.
On September 7, 2022, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “2022 Credit Agreement”) with Rabobank that provided for a € 4.9 million line of credit, that reduced to € 250,000 on April 1, 2023, and matured on September 6, 2023. Interest payments were due monthly, and interest on the borrowings consisted of the average one-month EURIBOR rate as determined during a month plus a surcharge of 3.55%.
To obtain these loans the Company was required to pledge the following collateral: accounts receivable, inventory, legal claims, bank accounts, and equity of Bloomia B.V.
Note 9 — Leases
The Company is party to leasing contracts in which the Company is the lessee. These lease contracts are classified as either operating or finance leases. The Company’s lease contracts include land, buildings, and equipment. Remaining lease terms range from 2 to 6 years with various term extension options available. The Company includes optional extension periods and early termination options in its lease term if it is reasonably likely that the Company will exercise an option to extend or terminate early.
Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term, at the later of the commencement date or the date of initial adoption. Because most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate of return, the discount rate is based on the collateralized borrowing rate of the Company, on a portfolio basis.
The balances for operating and finance leases where the Company is the lessee are presented as follows within the consolidated balance sheets:

The realization of deferred tax assets, including net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards, is dependent on the generation of future taxable income of sufficient to realize the tax deductions, carryforwards and credits. Management must evaluate the ability to rely on expectations of future income in evaluating the ability to realize the Company's deferred tax assets. Valuation allowances on deferred tax assets are recognized if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the asset will not be realized. As of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, the Company does not have a valuation allowance on any of its deferred tax assets.
As of June 30, 2023, Bloomia has no federal, state or foreign operating loss carryforwards.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to income tax filings within the provision for income taxes in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. Accrued interest and penalties are recorded along with tax liabilities. Interest and penalties related to income taxes are immaterial for the years ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022.
The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for years before June 30, 2020, with few exceptions, and is no longer subject to state and local or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before June 30, 2020.

Note 13 — Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company is exposed to certain risks to its ongoing business operations. The primary risk managed by using derivative instruments is foreign currency exchange rate risk. The Company has entered into certain financial derivative instruments to manage the risk.
The derivative financial instruments the Company has entered into are forward exchange contracts which have terms of less than a year to economically hedge foreign currency exchange rate risk on recognized nonfunctional currency monetary accounts. The purpose of the Company’s foreign currency hedging activities is to economically hedge the Company’s risk from changes in the fair value of non-functional currency denominated monetary accounts.
The Company records all derivative financial instruments at their fair value in its Consolidated Balance Sheets. None of the derivative financial instruments that the Company holds are designated as either a fair value hedge or cash flow hedge and the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is recorded in earnings. The Company has determined that the fair value of its derivative financial instruments are determined using level 2 inputs (inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability) in the fair value hierarchy as the fair value is based on publicly available foreign exchange rates at each financial reporting date. At June 30, 2023 and 2022, the fair value of the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts totaled a liability of $11 and $903, respectively. Derivative liabilities are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 the Company recorded a loss of $872 and $1,157, respectively related to changes in fair value. All gains and losses were included in foreign exchange difference, net in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations. The notional principal associated with those contracts was $3,445 and $13,694 million as of June 30, 2023 and 2022.
Note 14 – Pension Plan
For all Dutch employees, the Company participates in defined contribution pension plans with an independent insurance company. Defined contributions are expensed in the year in which the related employee services are rendered. The Company makes contributions on behalf of all Dutch employees of which $62 and $53 were made for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. These expenses are included in general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Other Comprehensive Income.
Note 15 — Related Parties
On January 1, 2018, the Company entered into an Inter-Company Service Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Botman Bloembollen B.V. (the “Parent”). Per the agreement, the Parent will provide administrative, financial and accounting services, corporate governance and compliance services, legal services, treasury services, regulatory services, human resources services, payroll processing services, procurement management services, tax services and related services. The Agreement was terminated on February 22, 2024.
The net balance between the Company and the Parent was a $729 receivable and a $371 receivable as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
The Company is party to an operating lease agreement with Horti-Group for land and greenhouses in King George, Virginia, United States. The lease commenced on July 1, 2021 and ends on December 31, 2038. The Company made rental payments to Horti-Group under the lease agreement during the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 totaling $3,365 and $3,299, respectively. The Company recorded expenses under the lease agreement of $3,904 and $3,904 during the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The Company had no balance payable to Horti-Group as of June 30, 2023 and 2022.
Note 16 – Significant Customers
For the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had three customers that accounted for 10% or more of the total revenues. These three customers accounted for 40%, 17%, and 11%, for the year ended June 30, 2023 and 31%, 22%, and 12%, for the year ended June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, $1,150 and $2,693 was due from these three customers. The loss of a major customer could adversely affect the Company's operating results and financial condition.

Note 1 — Organization and Business Operations
Bloomia B.V (“Bloomia”) is a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands. Bloomia is one of the largest producers of fresh cut tulips in the United States of America (“USA”), nurturing over 75 million stems annually. Operations are primarily in the USA with a presence in the Netherlands and South Africa. Bloomia purchases tulip bulbs, hydroponically grows tulips from the bulbs, and sells the stems to retail stores.
As of December 31, 2023, Bloomia had two wholly owned subsidiaries, Bloomia PTY Ltd and Fresh Tulips USA, LLC (“Fresh Tulips”) and a 31% ownership stake in Bloomia Araucania Fowers (“AF”), together (the “Company”).
Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the Unites States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and includes the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Entities for which the Company owns an interest, but does not consolidate, are accounted for under the equity method and are included in equity-method investments within the consolidated balance sheets. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
On February 22, 2024, the Company was acquired by Tulp 24.1 LLC, a subsidiary of Lendway, Inc. (“Lendway”).
Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, are unaudited. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of December 31, 2023 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2023. The financial data and the other financial information disclosed in these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements related to the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, are also unaudited. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2023, included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. The condensed consolidated results of operations and comprehensive loss for the six months ended December 31, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024, nor for any other future annual or interim period. The tulip sales business tends to be seasonal with spring being the strongest sales season.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the assumptions used in the measurement of right-of-use assets and liabilities and estimated lives of depreciable and amortizable assets.
| 30 |
| Table of Contents |
Foreign Currency Transactions
Transactions and balances that are denominated in currencies that differ from the functional currencies have been remeasured into US dollars in accordance with principles set forth in ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. At each balance sheet date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, while income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the periods presented. All exchange gains and losses from the remeasurement mentioned above are reflected in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss as foreign exchange expenses or income, as appropriate.
The revenues of the Company and most of its subsidiaries are generated in US dollars. In addition, most of the costs of the Company and most of its subsidiaries are incurred in US dollars. The Company’s management has established that the US dollar is the primary currency of the economic environment in which the Company and most of its subsidiaries operate. Thus, the functional currency of the Company and most of its subsidiaries is the US dollar.
For subsidiaries whose functional currency has been determined to be other than the US dollar, assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates, consolidated statement of operations items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the year, and equity is translated at blended historical rates. Resulting translation differences are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in equity.
Accounts Receivable, net
Accounts receivable are presented in the balance sheets at their outstanding balances net of the for credit losses. These receivables are generally trade receivables due in one year or less or expected to be billed and collected in one year. The Company estimates credit losses on accounts receivables in accordance with ASC 326 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. The Company adopted this accounting standard on July 1, 2023 using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
The Company measures the allowance for credit losses on trade receivables on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The estimate for allowance for credit losses is based on a historical loss rate for each pool. Management considers qualitative factors such as change in economic factors, regulatory matters, and industry trends to determine if an allowance should be further adjusted. The allowance for credit losses was $60 as of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023.
Inventories
Raw materials consist primarily of tulip bulbs, including freight, and packaging supplies. Work-in-process consists of tulip stems and bulbs that have rooted. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, as determined on the first-in, first-out method, or net realizable value. Finished goods and work-in-process include the inventory costs of raw materials, direct labor and normal manufacturing overhead. Abnormal amounts of spoilage are expensed as incurred and not included in overhead.
Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with FASB Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” (ASC 606), using the following steps:
|
| · | Identify the contract or contracts, with a customer; |
|
| · | Identify the performance obligations in the contract; |
|
| · | Determine the transaction price; |
|
| · | Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and |
|
| · | Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation. |
Revenues from the sale of tulips
The Company recognizes revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract with its customer are satisfied; this occurs with the transfer of control of its tulips. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring products. Revenue from product sales is governed primarily by customer pricing and related purchase orders (“contracts”) which specify shipping terms and the transaction price. Contracts are at standalone pricing. The performance obligation in these contracts is determined by each of the individual purchase orders and the respective stated quantities, with revenue being recognized at a point in time when obligations under the terms of the agreement are satisfied. This generally occurs with the transfer of control of tulips to the customer when the product is delivered, with payments from customers being collected between 30-60 days following the transfer of control.
| 31 |
| Table of Contents |
The Company expenses the incremental costs of obtaining a contract, if the amortization period is one year or less. These costs are included in sales and marketing expense on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and other comprehensive loss.
The following table presents revenue disaggregated by customer, as determined by the operational nature of their industry:

Cost of Sales
Cost of sales consists primarily of costs to procure, sort, pick, cool and transport bulbs. Additionally, cost of sales includes labor and facility costs related to production operations.
Shipping and handling
The Company’s shipping and handling costs include costs incurred with third-party carriers to transport products to customers. The costs of out-bound freight are included in the cost of goods sold in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and other comprehensive loss. For the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the costs of out-bound freight were $1,186 and $1,238, respectively.
Advertising costs
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. These costs are included within sales and marketing expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and other comprehensive loss. Total advertising expense was approximately $21 and $27 for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities by lessees for certain leases classified as operating leases and also requires expanded disclosures regarding leasing activities. The Company has adopted the standard effective July 1, 2022, using the modified retrospective approach. All comparative periods prior to July 1, 2022 are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with ASC 840, Leases.
The Company has elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allows the Company to carry forward the historical lease classification and initial direct costs treatment at transition. The Company has also made an accounting policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less from the consolidated balance sheet. The Company will recognize those lease payments in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
| 32 |
| Table of Contents |
Lease payments may include future escalations based on an index or other rate (such as the consumer price index), which the Company initially measures using the index or rate at lease commencement. Subsequent changes or other periodic market-rate adjustments to base rent are recorded as variable lease expense in the period incurred. Residual value guarantees or payments for terminating the lease are included in the lease liability only when it is probable they will be incurred. Lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets (“ROU”) are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected lease term. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is sometimes not readily determinable. In such cases, the Company utilizes the appropriate incremental borrowing rate, which is the rate incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The ROU assets are also adjusted for any initial direct costs incurred and lease payments made at or before the commencement date and are reduced by lease incentives received.
The Company’s leases may include a non-lease component representing additional services transferred to the Company, such as common area maintenance for real estate. The Company has made an accounting policy election to account for lease and non-lease components in its contracts as a single lease component for real estate asset related leases. The Company has elected to separate all lease and non-lease components for all other asset classes. The non-lease components, which are typically variable in nature, are recorded in variable lease expense in the period incurred.
The adoption of the standard resulted in recording operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities of $33,952 and $34,579, respectively on July 1, 2022. The adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations and other comprehensive loss or consolidated statement of cash flows.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which removes certain exceptions for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intraperiod allocation and calculating income taxes in interim periods. The ASU also adds guidance to reduce complexity in certain areas, including recognizing deferred taxes for tax goodwill and allocating taxes to members of a consolidated group. ASU 2019-12 is effective for the Company’s annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 on July 1, 2022 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326). On July 1, 2023, the Company adopted this ASU using the modified retrospective approach. This ASU requires the measurement of all expected losses to be based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. For trade receivables, loans, and other financial instruments, the Company is required to use a forward-looking expected loss model that reflects probable losses rather than the incurred loss model for recognizing credit losses. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740)—Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The ASU requires that an entity disclose specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation as well as provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Further, the ASU requires certain disclosures of state versus federal income tax expense and taxes paid. The amendments in this ASU are required to be adopted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis although retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the ASU 2023-09 adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term, at the later of the commencement date or the date of initial adoption. Because most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate of return, the discount rate is based on the collateralized borrowing rate of the Company, on a portfolio basis.
The balances for operating and finance leases where the Company is the lessee are presented as follows within condensed the consolidated balance sheets:

The Company is exposed to certain risks to its ongoing business operations. The primary risk managed by using derivative instruments is foreign currency exchange rate risk. The Company has entered into certain financial derivative instruments to manage the risk.
The derivative financial instruments the Company has entered into are forward exchange contracts which have terms of less than a year to economically hedge foreign currency exchange rate risk on recognized nonfunctional currency monetary accounts. The purpose of the Company’s foreign currency hedging activities is to economically hedge the Company’s risk from changes in the fair value of non-functional currency denominated monetary accounts.
The Company records all derivative financial instruments at their fair value in its condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. None of the derivative financial instruments that the Company holds are designated as either a fair value hedge or cash flow hedge and the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is recorded in earnings. The Company has determined that the fair value of its derivative financial instruments are determined using level 2 inputs (inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability) in the fair value hierarchy as the fair value is based on publicly available foreign exchange rates at each financial reporting date. At December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023 the fair value of the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts totaled a an asset of $37 and a liability of $11, respectively. Derivative liabilities are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and derivative assets are included in prepaids and other current assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 the Company recorded a loss of $32 and $423, respectively related to changes in fair value. All gains and losses were included in other income (expense) in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

EXHIBIT 99.3
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information
Effective as of February 22, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), Lendway, Inc. (the “Company”) completed the acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of Bloomia B.V., a private company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands (“Bloomia”). Bloomia is a leader in the fresh cut tulip industry originally founded in the Netherlands. The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. All amounts within are presented in thousands except share and per share data.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information derived from the historical condensed consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations of the Company and the historical consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations of Bloomia, after giving effect to the Acquisition (as defined in Note 1 – Description of the Acquisition and Financing Transactions) and the pro forma effects of certain assumptions and adjustments described in the Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information below.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to give effect to the following:
|
| · | Application of the acquisition method of accounting under the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) where the assets and liabilities of Bloomia will be recorded by the Company at their respective fair values as of the date the Acquisition was completed; |
|
| · | The Acquisition Transaction as defined in Note 1 – Description of the Acquisition and Financing Transactions including purchase consideration of $53,359, comprised of approximately $34,919 in cash, $15,450 of seller bridge loans, and $2,990 of rollover equity, issued in the equity of Tulp 24.1, was transferred in exchange for the right, title, and interest in and to all the outstanding equity of Bloomia; |
|
| · | The Financing Transaction (as defined in Note 1 – Description of the Acquisition and Financing Transactions); and |
|
| · | Adjustments to reflect the impact of the Acquisition Transactions, Financing Transactions and transaction costs to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations. |
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 are derived from and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 andBloomia’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 and its unaudited interim financial statements for the six-month period ended December 31, 2023 of Bloomia. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information gives effect to the Acquisition and the Financing Transactions as if they had occurred on (i) December 31, 2023 for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet, and (ii) January 1, 2023, the beginning of the earliest period presented, for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared for informational purposes only in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and are not necessarily indicative of the consolidated financial position or results of operations that would have been achieved had the Acquisition and the Financing Transactions occurred on the dates indicated, nor are they meant to be indicative of any future consolidated financial position or future results of operations that the combined company may achieve after the Acquisition. Pro forma adjustments reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on preliminary information and certain assumptions that we believe are reasonable, and do not reflect any cost savings, operating synergies or revenue synergies that may result from the Acquisition or the costs to achieve such synergies.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP, which requires all of the following steps: (a) identifying the acquirer; (b) determining the acquisition date; (c) recognizing and measuring the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree; and (d) recognizing and measuring goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. For the Acquisition, the Company is determined to be the accounting acquirer of Bloomia. The identifiable assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, and goodwill are measured and recorded at their acquisition date fair value. The results of operations for the combined company will be reported prospectively after the Acquisition date. the Company intends to finalize the valuations, other studies, and the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable within the measurement period, but in no event later than one year following the closing date of the Acquisition. The assets and liabilities of Bloomia have been measured based on various preliminary estimates using assumptions the Company believes are reasonable based on information that is currently available. Accordingly, actual adjustments may differ from the amounts reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and the differences may be material. We therefore caution you not to place undue reliance on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. An initial review of the accounting policies was completed to determine no material differences. As part of the continued integration of Bloomia, the Company will continue to review the accounting policies and practices of Bloomia, and as a result, may identify differences between the accounting policies and practices of the two companies that, when conformed, could have an impact on the future financial statements of the Company after giving effect to the Acquisition.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information
1. Description of the Acquisition and Financing Transactions
“Acquisition Transaction”
On February 22, 2024, the Company acquired majority ownership in Bloomia and its subsidiaries for a price of $53,359, comprised of approximately $34,919 in cash, $15,450 of seller bridge loans, and $2,990 of rollover equity, issued in the equity of Tulp 24.1. Bloomia purchases tulip bulbs, hydroponically grows tulips from the bulbs, and sells the stems to retail stores. the Company owns a significant majority of the ownership interest in, and is the managing member of, Tulp 24.1, LLC (“Tulp 24.1”), which holds the Bloomia entities. Bloomia’s continuing CEO, W.F. Jansen (“Jansen”), owns the remaining ownership interest, representing approximately 18.6% of Tulp 24.1.
Part of the Purchase Price was not paid in cash to the sellers at closing but was instead satisfied by two bridge loans dated February 22, 2024, aggregating to $12,750 by and between Botman Bloembollen B.V., Jansen, H.J. Strengers, Tulp 24.1, Tulipa Acquisitie Holding B.V. and the Company (“Bridge Loan 1”) and for $2,700 by and between Botman Bloembollen B.V. and Tulipa Acquisitie Holding B.V. (“Bridge Loan 2”).
Bridge Loan 1 provided by Botman Bloembollen for an amount of $12,090, Jansen for an amount of $400 and Strengers for an amount of $260 to the Company. The interest under the Bridge Loan 1 increases annually by 2%, from 8% per annum in the first year after the Closing Date up to 16% in the fifth year after the Closing Date and beyond. Principal payments are due under an excess cash flow provision calculated in accordance with the bridge loan agreement. the Company guaranteed the obligations of the borrowers under the Bridge Loan 1 and a second ranking right of pledge will be vested in favor of the lenders on the shares in Tulp 24.1. Therefore, in the event a repayment will not be possible from the operating cash and/or otherwise restricted by the subordination agreement, the Company shall be obliged to pay such amount and will subsequently have a claim against Tulp 24.1.
Bridge Loan 2 provided by Botman Bloembollen for an amount of $2,700 shall be paid weekly by the Borrower with 60% of the available net operating cash flow or balance sheet cash as referred to in the definition of ‘Permitted Payment’ under (c) of the Subordination Agreement, and (ii) no less than 50% of the loan by the end of the first 4-week period after the date of the agreement due on the loan to the lender, to the extent permissible under the Subordination Agreement. The interest under the Bridge Loan 2 is 8% per annum. the Company guaranteed the obligations of the Borrower under the Bridge Loan 2 and a second/third ranking right of pledge will be vested in favor of the Lender on the shares in Tulp 24.1.
“Financing Transaction”
On February 20, 2024, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement as the parent guarantor, together with Tulp 24.1, as borrower (the Borrower”), with Bloomia, and Fresh Tulips USA, LLC, a Virginia limited liability company, as guarantors, with Associated Bank, N.A., a national banking association, as agent for itself and the other lenders from time-to-time party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”). Under the Credit Agreement, the lenders funded $18,000 in term loans to fund the Borrower’s acquisition of Bloomia. The Credit Agreement also contains a $6,000 revolving facility, which may be used by the Borrower for general business purposes and working capital. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to secured overnight financing rate “Term SOFR”, as defined within the Credit Agreement, for an interest period of one month plus 3.0%. In addition to paying interest on the outstanding principal under the Credit Agreement, the Borrower is required to pay a commitment fee of 0.50% on the unutilized commitments under the revolving credit facility. The term loans will be repaid in quarterly installments of $450, commencing on June 30, 2024. Additional principal payments may be required under the “excess cash flow provision”. The remaining outstanding balance will be repaid in full after five years. The scheduled maturity of the revolving facility is February 20, 2029.
2. Basis of Presentation
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 presented herein are derived from the historical financial statements of the Company and Bloomia. The following financial information was combined:
|
| · | The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 is presented as if the Acquisition and the Financing Transactions had occurred on December 31, 2023 and combines the historical unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2023 with the historical unaudited consolidated balance sheet of Bloomia as of December 31, 2023. |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 has been prepared as if the Acquisition and Financing Transactions had occurred January 1, 2023, the beginning of the Company’s annual period presented, and combines the Company’s historical audited consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 with Bloomia’s historical unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the six-month interim period ended June 30, 2023 which was obtained from the audited financial statements for Bloomia’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 and the six-month unaudited interim period ended December 31, 2023. |
| 4 |
The Acquisition is accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting under the provisions of ASC 805 and using the fair value concepts defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements. Under ASC 805, identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their acquisition date fair value with the exception of deferred income taxes which are recorded in accordance with ASC 740. Transaction costs incurred by the Company, associated with the business combination, are expensed as incurred. The excess of acquisition consideration over the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, if any, is allocated to goodwill. The determination of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (and the related determination of estimated useful lives of amortizable identifiable intangible assets) requires significant judgment and estimates. The estimates and assumptions used include the projected timing and amount of future cash flows and discount rates reflecting risk inherent in the future cash flows related to the businesses acquired. The preliminary fair value estimates of the net assets acquired are based upon preliminary calculations and valuations, and those estimates and assumptions regarding certain tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the valuation of intangible assets acquired, income taxes, and goodwill are subject to change as the Company obtains additional information during the measurement period (up to one year from the Acquisition date). Although the Company believes the fair values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the Acquisition are reasonable, new information may be obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the date of the Acquisition during the twelve-month period following the Acquisition, which could cause actual results to differ materially from the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not include the realization of any cost savings from operating efficiencies, synergies or other restructuring activities which might result from the Acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of the consolidated financial position or results of operations that would have been achieved had the Acquisition and the Financing Transactions occurred on the dates indicated, nor are they meant to be indicative of any future consolidated financial position or future results of operations the Company will experience.
3. Bloomia’s Statement of Operations Reconciliation for Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2023
The historical audited financial statements of Bloomia are for the twelve months ended June 30 while the audited financial statements for the Company are for the twelve months ended December 31. Because the difference in fiscal year ends of the two companies exceeds 93 days, the Bloomia interim results for the six months ended December 31, 2023 were added to the fiscal year results while the six-month period ended December 31, 2022 interim results were removed to arrive at a comparable twelve-month period to that of the Company. Below reflects the reconciliation derived from the interim and annual financial statements presented elsewhere within this filing.

(f) Adjustment reflecting the fair value of equity method investments acquired as a result of the Acquisition in accordance with ASC 805.
(g) Adjustment reflecting the fair value of inventory acquired as a result of the Acquisition in accordance with ASC 805.
(h) Represents the elimination of Bloomia's historical equity balances and historical related party amounts owed from seller that were not acquired in connection with the Acquisition.
(i) Reflects (i) $8,304 of purchase accounting adjustments to deferred taxes resulting primarily from the differences in the treatment of intangible assets, inventories and property and equipment for GAAP and tax purposes and (ii) the elimination of the Company’s deferred tax asset valuation allowance of $645 for a net adjustment to the combined pro forma company of $7,659. Because Bloomia will be included in the Company’s consolidated tax return following the acquisition, the Company has determined that the deferred tax liabilities related to the Acquisition provide sufficient taxable income to realize the Company’s deferred tax assets of. All gross deferred amounts are recorded based on the estimated blended statutory tax rate of approximately 26.5%. The effective tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different (either higher or lower) depending on post-acquisition activities, including cash needs, the geographical mix of income and changes in tax law. This determination is preliminary and subject to change based upon the final determination of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities.
(j) Reflects the buyer transaction costs incurred in connection with the Acquisition. These costs are reflected as a reduction in cash and a decrease to retained earnings within the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet.

(k) Reflects payroll taxes accrued on transaction bonus earned upon closing of the Acquisition. Further, the bonus was settled at close in issued rollover equity of Tulp 24.1 and reflected in purchase consideration rather than settled in cash.
(l) Reflects the changes in value of right-of-use assets and lease obligations as of the Acquisition date, as well as short term leases that were not subjected to ASC 842 and have been reclassified to other accounts.
(m) Adjustment represents a $12,750 and $2,700 seller bridge loan to finance the cash consideration portion of total consideration. The $12,750 bridge loan has a term of 5 years and is therefore classified as long-term. The bridge loan does require the Borrower to make excess cash flow payments, to the extent available based on the contractual terms. These costs have not been estimated or reflected for the purposes of this disclosure. The $2,700 bridge loan is to be repaid two months after the commencement date, therefore is classified as a short-term obligation. Deferred issuance costs associated with the bridge loans were determined to be immaterial.
