Current report

On August 29, 2025, we entered into a secured promissory note with Avondale Capital LLC (“Avondale”) pursuant to which we received $1,750,000 less an original issue discount of $350,000 and less $5,000 of fees and expenses, for net funds provided of $1,395,000. Pursuant to the Agreement, we are required to pay Avondale $43,750 weekly until the $1,750,000 secured promissory note with Avondale is paid in full. A portion of the net proceeds of the Avondale secured promissory note were used to satisfy the remaining amount to which Arin Funding LLC (“Arin”) was entitled under the standard merchant cash advance agreement we entered into with Arin on April 2, 2025 (the “Arin II Agreement”), which resulted in us recognizing a loss on extinguishment of $99,000.

Current report

Revenue was $2.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in revenue of $0.2 million, or 9%, was primarily attributed to strong performance across the company’s shelf-stable product lines including Kick.Sports Nutrition, Vitamin Whey, Pulp and Pickle Party. We believe the drag on revenue from our strategic exit from the floral and lettuce categories, is now behind us, and this quarter represents the strength of our repositioned portfolio.

Current report

Cost of goods sold were $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Cost of goods sold increased $0.7 million, or 37%. As a percentage of revenue, gross profit decreased to 10% from 27% for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The increase in cost of goods sold was primarily driven by increased greenhouse labor and freight costs of $433 thousand and increased purchases of raw materials related to our nutraceutical products, inclusive of late Q2 invoices received from a supplier in the amount of $135 thousand. We are pursuing price adjustments to mitigate the impact of these inflationary pressures on cost of goods sold.

Current report

Interest expense was $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Interest expense was approximately unchanged as a result of similar borrowing amounts and amortization of debt issuance costs.

The risks and uncertainties surrounding our ability to continue our business with limited capital resources raises substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the issuance of these financial statements. To date, we have financed our operations with the proceeds from debt financings, public and private securities offerings, and operations, among other sources. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we believe that the existing cash will fund operations into the third quarter of 2025 and will not be sufficient to fund our operations through the next twelve months beyond the date of the issuance of our consolidated financial statements. Our operations have consumed substantial amounts of cash since inception. The net cash used in operating activities was $6.8 million and $5.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result if we are unable to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, holders of our securities might lose their entire investment. These factors, among others, may make it difficult to raise any additional capital and may cause us to be unable to continue to operate our business.

The Company’s primary liquidity requirements are for working capital, continued investments in capital expenditures, repayment of indebtedness, payment of the preferred return to the holder of our Series B Preferred Stock, and other strategic investments.

The Company’s liquidity needs have been met primarily through public and private equity offerings, term loan borrowings, accounts receivable financing, convertible notes, and related party loans.
