Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1 –Nature of business and summary of significant accounting policies

Nature of the business

Better Choice Company Inc. (the “Company”) is a pet health and wellness company focused on providing pet products and services that help dogs and cats live healthier, happier and longer lives. The Company has a broad portfolio of pet health and wellness products for dogs and cats sold under its Halo brand across multiple forms, including foods, treats, toppers, dental products, chews and supplements. The products consist of kibble and canned dog and cat food, freeze-dried raw dog food and treats, vegan dog food and treats, oral care products and supplements.

Reverse stock split

On March 8, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock at a ratio of 1-for-44, effective March 20, 2024 (the “Reverse Split”). In addition, the exercise prices of the Company’s underlying common stock purchase warrants and stock options were proportionately adjusted at the applicable reverse stock split ratio in accordance with the terms of such instruments. Proportionate voting rights and other rights of common stockholders were not affected by the Reverse Stock Split, other than as a result of the rounding up of fractional shares. In connection with the Reverse Stock Split,70,041 shares of common stock were issued in lieu of fractional shares.

Accordingly, all share and per share amounts related to the Company’s common stock for all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been retroactively adjusted, where applicable, to reflect the Reverse Stock Split. The number of authorized shares and the par values of the common stock and convertible preferred stock were not adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.

Basis of presentation

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reports and accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). Accordingly, the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2023 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Results of operations for interim periods may not be representative of results to be expected for the full year.

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC.

Consolidation

The condensed financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates these assumptions, judgments and estimates. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the financial position as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and the cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Going concern considerations

The Company is subject to risks common in the pet wellness consumer market including, but not limited to, dependence on key personnel, competitive forces, successful marketing and sale of its products, the successful protection of its proprietary technologies, ability to grow into new markets, and compliance with government regulations. The Company has historically incurred losses and expect to continue to generate operating losses and consume cash resources in the near term. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the date these interim condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, meaning that we may be unable to generate sufficient operating cash flows to pay our short-term obligations. The Company will need to either raise additional capital or obtain additional financing to maintain sufficient liquidity. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional capital, renewing or refinancing its existing debt or securing new financing. If the Company is unsuccessful in doing so, it may need to reduce the scope of its operations or sell certain assets.

The Company has implemented and continues to implement plans to achieve operating profitability, including various margin improvement initiatives, the consolidation of and introduction of new co-manufacturers, the optimization of pricing strategy and ingredient profiles, and new product innovation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and payments of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount of and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Summary of significant accounting policies

For additional information, please refer to the most recently filed Annual Report regarding the Company’s summary of significant accounting policies.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits held with banks and highly liquid investments with original maturities of ninety days or less at acquisition date. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Share repurchases

In April 2024, the Company’s board of directors authorized and approved a stock repurchase plan (the “Repurchase Plan”) for up to $5.0 million of the currently outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock through December 31, 2024. Repurchased shares are immediately retired and returned to unissued status. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, no shares were repurchased.

Advertising

The Company charges advertising costs to expense as incurred and such charges are included in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense. The Company’s advertising expenses consist primarily of online advertising, search costs, email advertising and radio advertising. In addition, the Company reimburses its customers and third parties for in store activities and record these costs as advertising expenses. Advertising costs were $1.2 million and $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Advertising costs were $2.3 million and $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Reclassification

Certain prior period amounts within the condensed consolidated statements of operations related to share-based compensation, previously presented as a separate line item, have been reclassified into selling, general and administrative expense to conform with current period presentation. All share-based compensation in the current and prior periods is a selling, general and administrative expense.

New Accounting Standards

Recently adopted

There were no new standards that would have an impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Note 2 –Revenue

The Company records revenue net of discounts, which primarily consist of trade promotions, certain customer allowances and early pay discounts.

The Company excludes sales taxes collected from revenues. Retail-partner based customers are not subject to sales tax.

The Company’s direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) loyalty program enables customers to accumulate points based on their spending. A portion of revenue is deferred at the time of sale when points are earned and recognized when the loyalty points are redeemed. The Company closed its DTC channel effective June 1, 2024 and expired the loyalty program as of June 30, 2024.

Revenue channels

The Company groups its revenue channels into three categories: Digital, which includes the sale of product to online retailers such as Amazon and Chewy, as well as DTC sales, which included the sale of product through the Company’s website through June 1, 2024; Brick & Mortar, which primarily includes the sale of product to Pet Specialty retailers, independent pet stores, and regional distributors; and International, which includes the sale of product to foreign distribution partners and to select international retailers (transacted in U.S. dollars).

Information about the Company’s net sales by revenue channel is as follows (in thousands):

Wintrust Receivables Credit Facility

On June 21, 2023, the Company entered into an account purchase agreement with Wintrust Receivables Finance (the “AP Agreement”), a division of Wintrust Bank N.A. (“Wintrust”) pursuant to which Wintrust will purchase, at its discretion, eligible customer invoices and advance up to 75% of the face amount of all purchased invoices, the maximum outstanding balance can be $4.8 million. Each advance under the AP Agreement will bear a variable interest rate at the prime rate plus 2.5% percentage per annum. The interest rate at June 30, 2024 was 11.0% per annum. The AP Agreement has an initial term oftwo years and will automatically renew annually unless terminated by the Company on at least 60 days’ notice. The Wintrust Receivables Credit Facility is guaranteed and secured by a general security interest in the assets of the Company. The Company continues to service the receivables, the transfers are at full recourse and the eligible customer invoices are not legally isolated from the Company. As such, the Wintrust Receivables Credit Facility was accounted for as a secured borrowing under ASC 860.

The Wintrust Receivables Credit Facility limits or restrict the ability of the Company to incur additional indebtedness; incur additional liens; make dividends and other restricted payments; make investments; sell, assign, transfer or dispose of certain assets; make optional prepayments of other indebtedness; engage in transactions with affiliates; and enter into restrictive agreements. The Wintrust Receivables Credit Facility does not include any financial covenants and if an event of default occurs, Wintrust is entitled to accelerate the advances made thereunder and exercise rights against the collateral. As of June 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with its restrictive financial covenants.

Borrowing under the Wintrust Receivables Credit Facility are classified as current debt as a result of a required lockbox arrangement and a subjective acceleration clause. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company sold receivables having an aggregate face value of $3.3 million and $7.3 million, respectively, in exchange for cash proceeds of $2.5 million and $5.5 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, the balance outstanding on the Wintrust Receivables Credit Facility amounted to $1.6 million.

Alphia Term Loan Facility

On June 21, 2023, the Company entered into a term loan credit agreement (the “Term Loan Agreement”) with Alphia Inc. (“Alphia”), a custom manufacturer of super-premium pet food in the U.S. Pursuant to the Term Loan Agreement, Alphia made a term loan to the Company in the original principal amount of $5.0 million (the “Term Loan”). In conjunction with the Term Loan Agreement, the Company issued warrants to Alphia (see Note 11 – Warrants for further discussion). The proceeds of the Term Loan, together with a portion of the Company’s cash on hand, were used to retire all of the outstanding obligations of Halo, Purely for Pets, Inc. (“Halo”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, under Halo’s long-term credit facility with Old Plank Trail Community Bank, N.A., an affiliate of Wintrust Bank, N.A described above.

On March 25, 2024, the Company initiated a legal action to enforce a right of first refusal option exercised by Alphia pursuant to the terms of a written agreement between Alphia and the Company whereby Alphia was to acquire the assets of Halo. On June 20, 2024, the Company agreed to settlement terms of the lawsuit. The agreement dismisses the Company’s ongoing litigation with Alphia and provides for the forgiveness of the Company’s term loan, including $5.0 million in principal and $0.5 million of payable-in-kind (“PIK”) accrued interest, the termination of 335,640 warrants with a strike price of $11.44 per share that were set to expire in 2028, and the forgiveness of up to $2.7 million in accounts payable due to Alphia, provided the remaining outstanding accounts payable balance is paid within 90 days of the settlement date. The terms of the settlement on accounts payable are still outstanding as of June 30, 2024. As a result, there is no impact to accounts payable as of June 30, 2024. The book value of the Alphia term loan and the unamortized debt issuance costs were $3.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively, on the date of forgiveness.

As a result of the settlement terms described above, the Company is not indebted to Alphia as it relates to the Term Loan Facility as of June 30, 2024.

Note 8 -Business Combinations

On February 9, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of Aimia Pet Healthco, Inc. (“Aimia”) to develop treats and toppers that safely combat pet obesity.

The Company completed a business combination for a purchase price of $0.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 with common shares issued as consideration, which have been adjusted herein to reflect the Reverse Stock Split effective March 20, 2024. In accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations (“Topic 805”), total consideration was first allocated to the fair value of assets acquired, including liabilities assumed, with the excess being recorded as goodwill. For financial statement purposes, goodwill is not amortized but rather is evaluated for impairment at least annually or more frequently if an event or change in circumstances occurs that indicates goodwill may be impaired. Goodwill is deductible for tax purposes and will be amortized over a period of 15 years.

The recorded purchase price for the business combination includes an estimation of the fair value of equity interests, which is calculated based on the value of the Company’s common stock on the closing date.

Under ASC 805, a business combination involves the acquisition of a business, defined as an integrated set of activities and assets capable of being conducted and managed for the purpose of providing a return to investors. The Company assessed whether the acquired entity constituted a business by evaluating its assets, processes, and outputs and determined the acquired set to be a business based on the inputs and substantive processes that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs.

Aimia is a pre-revenue business and there were no operating results related to this business combination to include in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024 since the acquisition date.

Acquisition-related costs incurred in connection with business combinations are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company incurred acquisition-related costs from this business combination of less than $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

In November 2023, Aimia entered into a memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) which establishes a research and development (“R&D”) partnership with doctors and a lab which would facilitate the development a GLP-1 supplement for pets. In connection with the MOU, the Company issued 6,818 shares to the R&D partners and the Company incurred $0.1 million of mergers and acquisitions expenses, which are recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Due to the timing of the completion of the acquisition, the purchase price and related allocation are preliminary and could be revised as a result of adjustments made to the purchase price, additional information obtained regarding assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and revisions of provisional estimates of fair values, including, but not limited to appraisals and valuations. The purchase price allocation will be finalized within the measurement period of up to one year from the acquisition date.

The table below provides a summary of the total consideration and the estimated purchase price allocation made for the business combination that became effective during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Total consideration$399,713

Goodwill405,194
Total assets acquired$407,150
AP and accruals$7,437
Total liabilities acquired$7,437
Net assets acquired$399,713

The factors contributing to the recognition of the amount of goodwill are based on expanding research and development to develop dog treats that mirror the weight loss benefits of brands including Slentrol, Wegovy, Ozempic, and Mounjaro with added protein and nutrients from the Company’s Halo products to promote lean muscle and overall pet health.

Note 9 -Fair Value Measurements

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The carrying amounts of borrowings under credit facilities approximates fair value because of the short-term nature and variable interest rates on these instruments approximates current market rates.

The Company estimates the fair value of the term loan based on a discounted cash flow method. The carrying value of the term loan was based on an accounting entry where proceeds from the loan were first allocated to the warrants liabilities. The following table presents the carrying amount and fair value of the Company’s term note and line of credit by hierarchy level:

Fair Value · June 30, 2024 · December 31, 2023

Note 10 –Commitments and contingencies

The Company has manufacturing agreements with its vendors that provides for the company to make its commercial best efforts to purchase minimum quantities in the ordinary course of business. There areno other purchase obligations as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

The Company may be involved in legal proceedings, claims, and regulatory, tax, or government inquiries and investigations that arise in the ordinary course of business resulting in loss contingencies. The Company accrues for loss contingencies when losses become probable and are reasonably estimable. If the reasonable estimate of the loss is a range and no amount within the range is a better estimate, the minimum amount of the range is recorded as a liability. Legal costs such as outside counsel fees and expenses are charged to expense in the period incurred and are recorded in SG&A expenses. The Company does not accrue for contingent losses that are considered to be reasonably possible, but not probable; however, the Company discloses the range of such reasonably possible losses. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed.

Litigation is subject to numerous uncertainties and the outcome of individual claims and contingencies is not predictable. It is possible that some legal matters for which reserves have or have not been established could result in an unfavorable outcome for the Company and any such unfavorable outcome could be of a material nature or have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. After consulting with legal counsel, management is not aware of any claims or lawsuits that may have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company.

There isno intrinsic value of outstanding warrants as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

The anti-dilution provisions which previously precluded equity treatment of the warrants, expired on December 21, 2023, and thus the warrants were reclassified to additional paid in capital and presented in equity as of December 31, 2023. The settlement terms discussed in Note 7 - Debt provide for the termination of all 335,640 Warrants, which resulted in a net zero impact on equity. As a result, there are no Alphia warrants outstanding as of June 30, 2024.

The warrants outstanding as of June 30, 2024, were issued during the year ended December 31, 2021 or prior and have an expiration date in 2026 or thereafter.

Note 17 –Earnings per share

The Company presents net income per share on a basic and diluted basis for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and net loss per share on a basic and diluted basis for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Basic income/(loss) per share is computed by dividing net income/(loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (“WASO”) during the period. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders are the same as the Company generated a net loss. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company’s basic and diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders are the same as the common stock equivalents are excluded from diluted net income per share as they have an anti-dilutive impact.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, potentially dilutive securities not included in the calculation of diluted net income/(loss) per share, because to do so would be anti-dilutive, are as follows:185,995 of stock equivalent warrants;98,267 of stock equivalent employee stock options.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, potentially dilutive securities not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share, because to do so would be anti-dilutive, are as follows:214,400 of stock equivalent warrants;335,640 of warrant liabilities (148,758 First Tranche Warrant and 186,882 Second Tranche Warrant);65,740 of stock equivalent employee stock options and 146 of stock equivalent other options.

In addition, the Company granted the Underwriter a 45-day option to purchase an additional 100,000 shares of Common Stock, at the public offering price per share, less the underwriting discounts and commissions, to cover over-allotments (the “Over-allotment Option”).

The representative warrants will be exercisable at $3.75 per share, a per share exercise price equal to 125% of the public offering price per share of common stock sold in the offering. The Company has not yet completed its evaluation of the classification of the warrants in accordance with Topic 480.
