Note 1 -The Company and Basis of Presentation

Business Overview

Where Food Comes From, Inc. is a Colorado corporation based in Castle Rock, Colorado (“WFCF”, the “Company,” “our,” “we,” or “us”). We are an independent, third-party food verification company conducting both on-site and desk audits to verify that claims being made about livestock, food, other high-value specialty crops and agricultural and aquaculture products are accurate. We care about food and other agricultural and aquacultural products, how it is grown and raised, the quality of what we eat, what farmers and ranchers do, and authentically telling that story to the consumer. Our team visits farms and ranches and looks at their plants, animals, and records, and compares the information we collect to specific standards or claims that farms and ranches want to make about how they are producing food. We strive to ensure that everyone involved in the food business - from growers and farmers to retailers and shoppers – can count on WFCF to provide authentic and transparent information about the food we eat and how, where, and by whom it is produced.

The Company also provides a wide range of professional consulting services and technology solutions that generate incremental revenue specific to the food and agricultural industry and drive sustainable value creation.

Most of our customers are located throughout the United States.

Basis of Presentation

Our unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of all majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us 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 revenues, costs and expenses during the reporting period. All significant intercompany transactions and amounts have been eliminated. The results of businesses acquired are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition. Actual results could differ from the estimates.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2025, included in our Form 10-K filed on February 26, 2026. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. Net income and shareholders’ equity were not affected by these reclassifications. The financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations. The consolidated operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period of any future year.

Seasonality

Our business is subject to seasonal fluctuations annually. Significant portions of our verification and certification service revenue are typically realized during late May through early October when the calf marketings and the growing seasons are at their peak.

Additionally, the cattle industry is cyclical by nature based on factors impacting current and future supplies such as drought-induced feedlot placements, higher cow and heifer slaughter, and lower auction receipts. The production lags inherent to this industry lead to long-lasting impacts of production decisions. For example, increased liquidation implies tighter supplies for next year. Similarly, times of herd expansion are typically a multi-year period. Historically, these cycles typically lasted approximately 10 years. The beginning of 2026 marked the twelfth year of the current cycle that began in 2014. We are currently in the contraction phase of the cycle after peaking in 2018-2019. How long we continue to contract will be directly impacted by drought and pasture conditions.

Because of the seasonality of the business and cyclical nature of our industry, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for any other quarter or for the full fiscal year.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification is the sole source of authoritative GAAP other than SEC issued rules and regulations that apply only to SEC registrants. The FASB issues an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) to communicate changes to the codification. The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASU’s.

Fair Value Measurements

Our assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as following (in millions):

March 31, 2026 · December 31, 2025
Fair Value · Level I · Level II · Level III · Fair Value · Level I · Level II · Level III
Money Market Funds$1,948$1,948--$2,019$2,019--
Digital Assets478478--613613--
Total$2,426$2,426$-$-$2,632$2,632$-$-

Note 2 –Basic and Diluted Net Income per Share

Basic net income per share was computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.

The following is a reconciliation of the share data used in the basic and diluted income per share computations (amounts in thousands):

Three months ended March 31,
20262025
Basic:
Weighted average shares outstanding5,0575,212
Diluted:
Weighted average shares outstanding5,0575,212
Weighted average effects of dilutive securities1318
Total5,0705,230
Antidilutive securities:1717

The effect of the inclusion of the antidilutive shares would have resulted in an increase in earnings per share. Accordingly, the weighted average shares outstanding have not been adjusted for antidilutive shares.

Note 3 –Equity Investments

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company did not receive dividend income from Progressive Beef. Effective June 30, 2025, the Company sold its equity investment in Progressive Beef (the “Buyer”) in exchange for approximately $1.8 million cash and the Buyer’s surrender of 12,585 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at approximately $0.1 million.

**Note 7 –Equity and Stock-Based Compensation **

In addition to cash compensation, the Company may compensate certain service providers, including employees, directors, consultants, and other advisors, with equity-based compensation in the form of stock options, stock awards and restricted stock awards. The Company recognizes all equity-based compensation as stock-based compensation expense based on the fair value of the compensation measured at the grant date. For stock options, fair value is calculated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. For stock awards, fair value is the closing stock price for the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The expense is recognized over the vesting period of the grant. For the periods presented, all stock-based compensation expense was classified as a component within selling, general and administrative expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, no stock options or common stock were awarded. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, common stock awards were granted to employees of 8,235 shares totaling approximately $94,000 in stock based expense.

Equity Incentive Plans

Our 2026 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2026 Plan”) provide for the issuance of stock-based awards to employees, officers, directors and consultants. The Plans permit the granting of stock awards and stock options. The vesting of stock-based awards is generally subject to the passage of time and continued employment through the vesting period. In April 2025, our shareholders ratified our 2026 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2026 Plan”), which provides for the issuance of a maximum of 500,000 shares of our common stock.

Stock Option Activity

Stock option activity under our Equity Incentive Plans is summarized as follows:

Weighted avg.
Weighted avg. · Weighted avg. · remaining
Number of · exercise price · grant date fair · contractual life · Aggregate
awards · per share · value per share · (in years) · intrinsic value

Unvested, March 31, 2026-$-$--$-

The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the aggregate difference between the closing price of our common stock on March 31, 2026 and the exercise price for the in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders if all the in-the-money options had been exercised on March 31, 2026.

Note 8 –Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities have been determined based upon the differences between the financial statement amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The provision or benefit for income taxes is recorded at the end of each interim period based on the Company’s best estimate of its effective income tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 we recorded an income tax expense of approximately $93,000, compared to income tax expense of $38,000 for the same 2025 period.

Note 11 –Commitments and Contingencies

Legal proceedings

From time to time, we may become involved in various legal actions, administrative proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. We generally record losses for claims in excess of the limits of purchased insurance in earnings at the time and to the extent they are probable and estimable.

Note 12 -Segments

Effective January 2025, our operations team implemented some internal restructuring and consolidation throughout the company to better align business functions and improve efficiency, as well as promote stronger unity in our brand identity because of our many past acquisitions. With this reorganization, we also needed to reassess segment reporting, our new structure and what type of discrete information was reviewed by our middle managers and our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). One aspect of our restructuring specifically addressed the activities and personnel, which were previously reported under our Professional Services Segment. All professional consulting services, which also includes data analysis and other reporting metrics, provide support to our primary activities of verification and certification. This segment now reports to the same management team under the Verification and Certification Segment. With our restructuring, we now only haveone reportable segment. The factors considered in determining this aggregated reporting segment include the economic similarity of the businesses, the nature of services provided, production processes, types of customers and distribution methods.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker (the Company’s CEO) allocates resources and assesses the performance of its operating segment. Management makes decisions, measures performance, and manages the business utilizing internal reporting operating information. Performance of the operating segment is based on net sales, gross profit, selling, general and administrative expenses and most importantly, operating income.
