Note 1 - Nature of business and summary of significant accounting policies
Nature of the Businessbusiness
Better Choice Company Inc. (the "Company") is a growing animalpet health and wellness company focused on providing pet products and services that help dogs and cats live healthier, happier and longer lives. The Company sells its product offeringofferings under the Halo and TruDog brands, which have a long history of providing high quality products to pet parents. The Company believes its portfolio of brands are well-positioned to benefit from the trends of growing pet humanization and an increased consumer focus on health and wellness, and the Company has adopted a laser focused, channel-specific approach to growth that is driven by new product innovation. The Company has a broad portfolio of over 100 active premium and super-premium animalpet health and wellness products for dogs and cats sold under its Halo and TruDog brands across multiple forms, including foods, treats, toppers, dental products, chews, grooming products and supplements. The products consist of naturally formulated premium kibble and canned dog and cat food, freeze-dried raw dog food and treats, vegan dog food and treats, oral care products, supplements and grooming aids. The core products sold under the Halo brand are sustainably sourced, derived from real whole meat and no rendered meat meal and include non-genetically modified fruits and vegetables. The core products sold under the TruDog brand are made according to the Company's nutritional philosophy of fresh, meat-based nutrition and minimal processing.
Reverse stock split
On May 28, 2021, stockholders holding a majority of the voting power of the Company approved, by way of a written consent resolution, for the authorization of the Company's board of directors, in its sole and absolute discretion, and without further action of the stockholders, to file an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to affect a reverse stock split of its common stock at a ratio in the range of 1-for-3 to 1-for-10 at any time prior to December 31, 2021. On June 10, 2021 the Company's board of directors set the reverse stock split ratio at 1-for-6 (the "Reverse Stock Split") and approved the Reverse Stock Split to be effectuated by the Company immediately following the effectiveness of the Company's registration statement related to the Company's IPO (as defined below), which became effective on June 28, 2021.
As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every six shares of the Company’s common stock was combined and converted into one share of the Company’s common stock as of June 28, 2021. In addition, the conversion rates of the Company's outstanding preferred stock and convertible notes and 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. The Company issued 1,081 shares of common stock in lieu of fractional shares in connection with the Reverse Stock Split.
Accordingly, all share and per share amounts related to the Company's common stock and underlying derivatives for all periods presented in the accompanying unaudited condensed 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.
Initial public offering
On June 28, 2021, the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 for its underwritten initial public offering (the “IPO”) was declared effective by the SEC, and the Company's common stock commenced trading on the NYSE American ("NYSE") on June 29, 2021. Upon commencement of the trading of the Company's common stock on the NYSE on June 29, 2021, all of the Company's outstanding convertible notes payable automatically converted into 4,732,420 shares of common stock.
In connection with the IPO, which closed on July 1, 2021, the Company issued and sold 8,000,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $5.00 per share. The total net proceeds from the IPO were approximately $36.2 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $2.8 million, and offering costs of approximately $1.0 million. The Company plans to use the net proceeds of this IPO for general corporate purposes. The Company may also elect to use proceeds from the IPO to acquire complimentary technologies, products or businesses, although the Company is not a party to any letters of intent or definitive agreements for any such acquisition.
Upon the consummation of the IPO on July 1, 2021, all shares of the Series F convertible preferred stock were converted into 5,764,533 shares of common stock. Additionally, since the anti-dilution provision of the Series F Warrants were no longer effective upon consummation of the Company's IPO, these warrants met the requirements to be considered equity and the outstanding Series F Warrants were reclassified as such.

Basis of Presentationpresentation
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 United States ("GAAP"). Results of operations for interim periods may not be representative of results to be expected for the full year.
Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior period data to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no material effect on the reported results.
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, 2020, filed with the SEC.
Consolidation
The financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis subsequent to acquisitions and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimatesestimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 and comprehensive loss for the periods ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020, the financial position as of March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and the cash flows for the periods ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020.
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. As of March 31, 2021, the Company has not experienced a significant adverse impact to its business, financial condition or cash flows resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. However, uncertainties regarding the continued economic impact of COVID-19 are likely to result in sustained market turmoil which could also negatively impact the Company's business, financial condition, and cash flows in the future. The Company has continually incurred losses and has an accumulated deficit. The Company continues to rely on current investors and the public markets to finance these losses through debt and/or equity issuances. These operating losses, working capital deficit and the outstanding debt create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.

The Company is implementing plans to achieve cost savings and other strategic objectives to address these conditions. The Company expects cost savings from consolidation of third-party manufacturers, optimizing shipping and warehousing as well as overhead cost reductions. The business is focused on successful completion of capital raises and growing the most profitable channels while reducing investments in areas that are not expected to have long-term benefits. The accompanying condensed 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 condensed 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 Policiessignificant accounting policies
For additional information, please refer to ourthe 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. Our cash equivalents are held in government money market funds and at times may exceed federally insured limits. For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all cash accounts that are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties to be cash and cash equivalents.
Restricted cash
The Company was required to maintain a restricted cash balance of less than $0.1 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, associated with a business credit card and credit card clearance operations. The Company was required to maintain a restricted cash balance of $7.2 million as of September 30, 2021 in connection with the amendment to the Wintrust Credit Facility (as defined below). See "Note 7 - Debt" for additional information.
Share repurchases
In August 2021, the Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program that authorizes the repurchase of up to $2.0 million of the Company's outstanding common stock in the open market through December 31, 2021. Repurchased shares are immediately retired and returned to unissued status. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, 344,775 shares were repurchased for $1.3 million, inclusive of broker's commissions.
Advertising
The Company charges advertising costs to expense as incurred and such charges are included in sales and marketing expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company's advertising expenses consist primarily of online advertising, search costs, email advertising, and radio advertising. In addition, we reimburse our customers and third parties for in store activities and record these costs as sales and marketing expenses. Advertising costs were $3.0 million and $7.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $1.8 million and $4.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

New Accounting Standardsaccounting standards
Recently adopted
ASU 2020-03 “Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments”
In March 2020, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-03, Codification Improvement to Financial Instruments. This ASU improves and clarifies various financial instruments topics, including the current expected credit losses standard issued in 2016. The ASU includes seven different issues that describe the areas of improvement and the related amendments to GAAP, intended to make the standards easier to understand and apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. The amendments have different effective dates, some of which were effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2021. The amendments adopted did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2019-12 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASU 2019-12”), which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This new guidance was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2021 and did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Issued but not yet adopted
ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326)”
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326),” a new standard to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology under current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2023, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.statements and related disclosures.
ASU 2020-04 “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting”
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This ASU provides optional expedient and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. In response to the concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates (IBORs) and, particularly, the risk of cessation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), regulators in several jurisdictions around the world have undertaken reference rate reform initiatives to identify alternative reference rates that are more observable or transaction based and less susceptible to manipulation. The ASU provides companies with optional guidance to ease the potential accounting burden associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued. The ASU can be adopted no later than December 1, 2022 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity. This ASU reduces the number of accounting models for convertible instruments, amends diluted EPS calculations for convertible instruments, and amends the requirements for a contract (or embedded derivative) that is potentially settled in an entity’s own shares to be classified in equity. This standard is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2024 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Overview and Outlookoutlook
We are an animala pet health and wellness company ready to lead the global industry shift towardfocused on providing pet products and services that help dogs and cats live healthier, happier and longer lives. Our mission is to become the most innovative premium pet food company in the world, and we are motivated by our commitment to making products with integrity and treating pets and their parents with respect. We believe our portfolio of brands are well positioned to benefit from the trends of growing pet humanization and an increased consumer focus on health and wellness, and we have adopted a laser focused, channel-specific approach to growth that is driven by new product innovation. Our executive team has a proven history of success in both the pet and consumer-packaged goods and hasindustries, with over 50 years of combined experience in the pet industry and over 100 years of combined experience in the consumer-packaged goods industry.
Our product offering is sold today under the Halo and TruDog brands and has enabled the Companyus to penetrate multiple channels of trade, which we believe enables us to deliver on core consumer needs and respond to changing channel dynamics that have only accelerated as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. We group these channels of trade into four distinct categories: E-Commerce, which includes the sale of product to online retailers such as Amazon and Chewy; Brick & Mortar, which includes the sale of product to pet specialty chains such as Petco, PetSmart, select grocery chains and neighborhood pet stores; DTC, which includes the sale of product through our online web platform; and International, which includes the sale of product to foreign distribution partners and to select international retailers. We believe our omni-channel approach is a significant competitive advantage, as it allows us to design and sell products purpose-built for success in specific channels while maintaining our ability to leverage marketing and sales resources cross-channel.
Although the COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically changed the U.S. retail landscape, the pet industry has proven to be resilient, with Packaged Facts recently increasing their projected 2021 growth rate for U.S. retail sales of pet food and supplies from 5.3% to 7.6%. While the industry-wide E-Commerce sales have retreated somewhat following the March 2020 pantry stocking, the sale of pet food and supplies online has increased 35% year-over-year according to Packaged Facts, with subscription sales nearly equal to the March 2020 peak. We anticipate our ability to reach a growing base of diverse customers online will only increase as approximately 59%the majority of our sales during fiscal year 2020 and the first quarter of 2021 were made viaare derived from our DTC and E-Commerce channels. Conversely,At the same time, we believe that our long-established relationships with key Brick & Mortar customers will enable us to jointly launch new products in the future that are designed for in-store success.
In addition to our domestic sales channels, the Halo brand’s international sales grew by 95% in 2020, driven primarily by Halo’s ability to secure Product Import Registrations for 15 Dogdog and Cat Food Dietscat food diets from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of China (“MOA”) in June 2020. We believe that our growth in Asia is fueled by increasing levels of economic financial status and demand for premium, western manufactured products, with China representing the largest market opportunity for growth and 48% of Better Choice’s international sales in 2020. According to Euromonitor, the Chinese market for premium dry dog and cat food is anticipated to grow at a 20% CAGR and 28% CAGR, respectively, from 2015 through 2025. This growth rate is driven by dramatic increases in pet ownership, which has seen the number of dog-owning Chinese households increase from 12% in 2015 to 20% in 2020. On a relative basis, 67% of U.S. households owned a pet in 2020 according to the American Pet Products Association, suggesting that the Chinese pet market has significant room to grow in the foreseeable future.
New product innovation, through our own research and development activities as well as through acquisitions, represents the cornerstone of our growth plan, and our established supply and distribution infrastructure allows us to develop, manufacture and bring new products to market in generally under nine months. Our flexible and scalable outsourced manufacturing model also promotes innovation, as we are able to offer a wide variety of dog and cat food products under the Halo and TruDog brands that serve many different consumer needs. Founded in 1986, the Halo brand consists of a diversified, premium natural dog and cat portfolio, with products derived from real whole meat, no rendered meat meal and non-genetically modified (non-"GMO") fruits and vegetables, unlike many other kibble and canned products currently in the marketplace.

In addition to its dry kibble and canned wet food offering, Halo also has a successful line of freeze-dried treats for dogs and cats and a growing line of award-winning vegan products for dogs. Founded in 2013, the TruDog brand offers ultra-premium, freeze-dried raw dog food, toppers, treats and supplements sold predominantly on its DTC website. Freeze-dried raw dog food is one of the fastest growing sub-categorysub-categories of premium pet food, with Packaged Facts reporting 39% year-over-year growth in the sub-category in 2019. We believe that both brands are well positioned to take advantage of pet parents’ increasing desire to feed only the highest quality ingredients to their pets, and that there will continue to be innovative opportunities for brand consolidation over time.
Our marketing strategies are designed to clearly communicate to consumers about the benefits of our products and to build awareness of our brands. We deploy a broad set of marketing tools across various forms of media to reach consumers through multiple touch points and engage with a number of marketing agencies to develop content and product packaging. Our marketing initiatives include the use of social and digital marketing, Search Engine Optimization, email and SMS marketing, and paid media (Facebook, Instagram & YouTube), among other proven strategies to generate and convert sales prospects into loyal, satisfied customers. In addition to directly targeting and educating consumers of our products, we partner with a number ofboth E-commerce platforms and retailers such as Amazon, Chewy and Petco to develop joint sales and marketing initiatives to increase sales and acquire new customers.
On February 2, 2019 and February 28, 2019, respectively, we entered into definitive agreements to acquire through stock exchange agreements, approximately 93% of the outstanding interest of TruPet LLC and all of the outstanding shares of Bona Vida, Inc., an emerging hemp-based CBD platform focused on developing a portfolio of brand and product verticals within the animalpet health and wellness space. On May 6, 2019, Better Choice Company consummated the stock exchange transactions whereby TruPet LLC and Bona Vida, Inc. became wholly owned subsidiaries of Better Choice Company. For accounting and financial reporting purposes, the transaction was treated as a reverse acquisition whereby TruPet is considered the acquiror of Better Choice Company and Bona Vida, Inc. Thus, the historical financial information of the registrant is that of TruPet even though the legal registrant remains Better Choice Company.
On December 19, 2019, the Companywe acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Halo, Purely for Pets, Inc., in exchange for a combination of cash consideration, shares of our common stock, and convertible subordinated notes and accompanying stock purchase warrants.
Although Bona Vida remains a wholly owned subsidiary, we do not currently sell or market any CBD products, we do not currently own any CBD related inventory or raw materials and we do not currently have plans to re-enter the CBD market at this time.
The impact that the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and related supply chain challenges will have on our consolidated results of operations is uncertain. Although we have not observed a material reduction in salesdemand as of MarchSeptember 2021 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen some impact to our revenue growth as a result of supply chain issues and a notable reduction in our safety stocks during the third quarter of 2021. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of COVID-19’sthe pandemic's impact to our business, consolidated results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity, and ourliquidity. Our results presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future periods in 2021 or the full fiscal year. Management cannot predict the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’sour sourcing, manufacturing and distribution of its products or to economic conditions generally, including the effects on consumer spending. The ultimate extent of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Companyus is highly uncertain and will depend on future developments, and such effects could exist for an extended period of time even after the pandemic might end.

The decrease was also drivenour International and E-commerce channels, partially offset by lower Brick & Mortar sales due to the discontinuation of products with oneas we reshuffle our product lineup ahead of our pet specialty customersnew product launch in 2022, and lower DTC sales driven by aan intentional decrease in marketing spend with low return on investment. These decreases were partially offsetas we expect to shift the focus of these investments to our longer-term DTC strategy, rather than chasing short term revenue gains. Our revenue growth has been negatively impacted throughout the year by continued growththe supply chain issues being felt globally as the pandemic continues to present challenges.

Cost of goods sold and Gross profit
Our products are manufactured to our specifications by contracted manufacturing plants using raw materials sourced by our contracted manufacturers. We design our packaging in-house for manufacture by third parties, and packaging is shipped directly to contracted manufacturing plants. We work with our co-manufacturers to secure a supply of raw materials that meet our specifications, such as USA farm-raised beef, GAP 2 certified cage-free whole chicken and associated broths, GAP 2 certified cage-free whole turkey and associated broths, MSC certified wild-caught salmon and MSC certified wild-caught whitefish and associated broths, and select non-GMO fruits and vegetables, such as peas, sweet potatoes and lentils. In addition to procuring raw materials that meet our formulation requirements, our contract manufacturers manufacture, test and package our products.
Cost of goods sold consists primarily of the cost of product obtained from third-party contract manufacturing plants, packaging materials, inventory freight for shipping product from third-party contract manufacturing plants to ourthe warehouse and third-party fulfillment and royalties.fulfillment. We review inventory on hand periodically to identify damages, slow moving inventory, and/or aged inventory. Based on the analysis, we record inventories at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with any reduction in value expensed as cost of goods sold.
We calculate gross profit as net sales, including any shipping revenue collected from our customers, less cost of goods sold. Our gross profit has been and will continue to be affected by a variety of factors, primarily product sales mix, volumes sold, discounts offered to newly acquired and recurring customers, the cost of our manufactured products, and the cost of freight from the manufacturer to the warehouse.

The decreaseincrease was driven by cost increases from our primary suppliers as a result of broad-scale inflation in the industry. We are actively working with our co-manufacturing and freight partners as well as transitioning some of our primary suppliers to generate future cost savings. Additionally, we have taken price increases to our customers effective late in the third quarter to help cover cost increases. We will continue to refine and optimize our overall pricing strategy as we evaluate the future impact of inflation and align ourselves with the market.

We have implemented and continue to implement plans to achieve cost savings and other strategic objectives, to address these conditions. We have achievedincluding realized cost savings from the consolidation of our third-party logistics operations and reduction of overhead costs and we expect to achieve further cost savings from the consolidation of third-party manufacturers and optimization of shipping costs.

If we seek additional financing to fund our business activities in the future and there remains doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, investors or other financing sources may be unwilling to provide additional funding on commercially reasonable terms or at all. If we are unable to raise the necessary funds when needed or achieve planned cost savings, or other strategic objectives are not achieved, we may not be able to continue our operations, or we could be required to modify our operations that could slow future growth. The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and payments of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Accordingly, the interim condensed 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 we be unable to continue as a going concern.

The risks described in our Annual ReportIPO Registration Statement are not the only risks facing our Company. In addition to risks and uncertainties inherent in forward-looking statements contained in this Report on Form 10-Q, additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
Increases in sourcing, manufacturing and/or warehousing costs, supply shortages, and/or supply changes could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results.
Our products are sourced from a limited number of third-party suppliers, and as a result we may be subject to price fluctuations or demand disruptions. Our operating results would be negatively impacted by increases in the prices of our products, and we have no guarantees that prices will not rise. Increases in our supplier costs could have a material effect on our gross margins. We may not be able to pass increased prices on to customers, which could adversely affect our margins and operating results. Our ability to meet increases in demand may be impacted by our reliance on our suppliers and we are subject to the risk of shortages and long lead times. We may not be able to develop alternate sources in a timely manner. Therefore, we may not be able to source sufficient product on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all, which may undermine our ability to fill our orders in a timely manner.

In addition, supply chains may be impacted by events outside of our control and limit our ability to procure timely delivery of our products. The loss of a significant supplier, an increase in supplier costs, or delays or disruptions in the delivery of product, could adversely impact our ability to generate future revenue and earnings and have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results.
