Note 1: Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 26, 2020, Tofutti Brands, Inc. (“Tofutti” or the “Company”) had approximately $1,399 in cash compared to $514 at December 28, 2019. Net cash provided by operating activities was $720 for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2020 compared to $2 used in operating activities for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2019. Cash provided by operating activities for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2020 was primarily a result of the Company’s operating profit, a decrease in accounts receivable, and an increase in accounts payable offset by increases in inventory and accrued expenses. Net cash provided by financing activities was $165 for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2020 compared to $0 provided by financing activities for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2019. Net cash provided by financing activities was due to the Company’s receipt of a loan under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). Net cash used in investing activities was $0 for the thirty-nine weeks ended at September 26, 2020 compared to $29 used in investing activities for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2019.

The Company historically has primarily financed operations and met capital requirements through positive cash flow from operations. However, due to net losses and cash used in operations in prior years in order to provide the Company with additional working capital, on January 6, 2016, David Mintz, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive, provided it with a loan of $500. The original loan was convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $4.01 per share, the closing price of its common stock on the NYSE MKT on the date the promissory note was first entered into. Effective January 10, 2020, the loan was extended until December 31, 2022 and is convertible into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $1.77 per share, the closing price of the common stock on the OTCQB on the date the extension of the promissory note was entered into. See Note 10.

The Company’s ability to introduce successful new products may be adversely affected by a number of factors, such as unforeseen cost and expenses, economic environment, increased competition, the inability to make sales calls due to travel restrictions imposed by governmental agencies in response to the spread of COVID-19 and other factors beyond the Company’s control. Trade food shows and sales conferences, major events used to introduce and sell the Company’s products, have been postponed indefinitely.

Management cannot provide assurance that the Company will operate profitably in the future, or that it will not require significant additional financing in order to accomplish or exceed the objectives of its business plan. In addition, the continued spread of COVID-19 and the resulting economic downturn could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operations. Consequently, the Company’s historical operating results cannot be relied on to be an indicator of future performance, and management cannot predict whether the Company will obtain or sustain positive operating cash flow or generate net income in the future.

Small Business Administration Loan (SBA Loan)

On May 4, 2020, the Company was granted a loan from the Valley National Bank in the aggregate amount of $165, pursuant to the PPP under the CARES Act. Interest accrues at 1% per year, effective on the date of initial disbursement. In addition, a portion of the loan may be forgiven under provisions under the CARES Act based on payments for payroll, rent and utilities during the period subsequent to obtaining the loan.

According to SBA guidelines, if a loan has closed prior to June 5, 2020 and the recipient of the loan has chosen to adopt the 24-week “covered period,” the principal and interest on the loan will be deferred until the earlier of:

When the SBA remits the forgiveness amount on the loan to the bank (or notifies that no loan forgiveness is allowed; or
21 months from the origination date of the loan.

Note 2: Description of Business

Tofutti is engaged in one business segment, the development, production and marketing of non-dairy frozen desserts and other food products.

The Company reports on operating segments in accordance with standards for public companies to report information about operating segments and geographic distribution of sales in financial statements. While the Company has multiple products and or product groups, its goal is to focus on non-dairy foods. The Company’s chief operating decision maker tracks revenue by product groups, but does not track more granular operating results by product group as many of the ingredients are similar among these groups. As a result, the Company has determined that it has only one operating segment, which is the development, production and marketing of soy-based, non-dairy frozen desserts, frozen food products and soy-based cheese products.

Note 3: 1: Basis of Presentation

Note 4: New and 2: Recently AdoptedIssued Accounting Standards

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates (“ASUs”). ASUs not discussed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the Company’s balance sheets or statements of operations.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments in this Update require a new topic to be added (Topic 326) to the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and removes the thresholds that entities apply to measure credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost, such as loans, trade receivables, reinsurance recoverables, and off-balance-sheet credit exposures, and held-to-maturity securities. Under current U.S. GAAP, entities generally recognize credit losses when it is probable that the loss has been incurred. The guidance under ASU 2016-13 will remove all current recognition thresholds and will require entities under the new current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model to recognize an allowance for credit losses for the difference between the amortized cost basis of a financial instrument and the amount of amortized cost that an entity expects to collect over the instrument’s contractual life. The new CECL model is based upon expected losses rather than incurred losses. Additionally, the credit loss recognition guidance for available-for-sale securities is amended and will require that credit losses on such debt securities should be recognized as an allowance for credit losses rather than a direct write-down of amortized cost balance. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the effect that this new guidance will have on our financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 6: 4: Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company accounts for penalties or interest related to uncertain tax positions as part of its provision for income taxes.

Note 7: 5: Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share has been computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share for the periods ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019 have been computed by dividing net income (loss) byis calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and common stock equivalents, which include options and a convertible note outstanding during the same period as applicable. Notperiods. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing earnings by the weighted number of common shares outstanding, which would account for a potential 282,486 shares to be issued upon conversion and have been included in the calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per common share for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks periods ended September 28, 2019 were the shares issuable upon conversion of a convertible note payable and the shares issuable upon exercise of 80,000 non-qualified options granted to directors, as a consequence of their anti-dilutive effect.July 3, 2021.

Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. For lease agreements entered into or reassessed after the adoption of Topic 842, the Company has combined the lease and non-lease components in determining the lease liabilities and right-of-use, or ROU, assets.

The Company’s lease agreements generally do not provide an implicit borrowing rate; therefore, an internal incremental borrowing rate is determined based on information available at lease commencement date for purposes of determining the present value of lease payments. The Company used the incremental borrowing rate on December 29, 2018 of 5.5%5.5% for all leases that commenced prior to that date.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors which have affected our financial position and operating results during the periods included in the accompanying financial statements.

The discussion and analysis which follows in this Quarterly Report and in other reports and documents and in oral statements made on our behalf by our management and others may contain trend analysis and other forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial results. These include statements regarding our earnings, projected growth and forecasts, and similar matters which are not historical facts. We remind stockholders that forward-looking statements are merely predictions and therefore are inherently subject to uncertainties and other factors which could cause the actual future events or results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. These uncertainties and other factors include, among other things, business conditions in the food industry and general economic conditions, both domestic and international; lower than expected customer orders; competitive factors; changes in product mix or distribution channels; and resource constraints encountered in developing new products. The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report and made elsewhere by or on our behalf should be considered in light of these factors.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these unaudited condensed financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The policies discussed below are considered by management to be critical to an understanding of our financial statements because their application places the most significant demands on management’s judgment, with financial reporting results relying on estimation about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Specific risks for these critical accounting policies are described in the following paragraphs. For all of these policies, management cautions that future events rarely develop exactly as forecast, and the best estimates routinely require adjustment.

Revenue Recognition.We primarily sell non-dairyvegan and dairy-free soy-based cheeses, frozen desserts cheeses and other food products as detailed in Note 11: Revenue.products. We recognize revenue when control over the products transfers to our customers, deemed to be the performance obligation, which generally occurs upon deliverywhen the product is shipped or shipmentpicked up from one of our distribution locations by the products.customer. We account for product shipping, handling and insurance as fulfillment activities with revenues for these activities recorded within net revenue and costs recorded within cost of sales. Revenues are recorded net of trade and sales incentives and estimated product returns. Known or expected pricing or revenue adjustments, such as trade discounts, rebates or returns, are estimated at the time of sale. We base these estimates of expected amounts principally on historical utilization and redemption rates. Estimates that affect revenue, such as trade incentives and product returns, are monitored and adjusted each period until the incentives or product returns are realized.

Key sales terms, such as pricing and quantities ordered, are established on a frequent basis such that most customer arrangements and related incentives have a one year or shorter duration. As such, we do not capitalize contract inception costs and we capitalize product fulfillment costs in accordance with U.S. GAAP and our inventory policies. We generally do not have any unbilled receivables at the end of a period.

12

Accounts Receivable.Receivable. The majority of our accounts receivablesreceivable are due from distributors (domestic and international) and retailers. Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customers’ financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required. Accounts receivable are most often due within 30 to 90 days and are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.accounts and reserve for sales promotions. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. We determine whether an allowance is necessary by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, our previous loss history, the customer’s current ability to pay its obligation, and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. We write offwrite-off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the bad debt expense account. We do not accrue interest on accounts receivable past due.

Inventory. Inventory is stated at lower of cost or net realizable value determined by first in first out (FIFO) method. Inventories in excess of future demand are written down and charged to the provision for inventories. At the point of which loss is recognized, a new, lower cost basis for that inventory is established and subsequent changes in facts and circumstances do not result in the restoration or increase in the newly established cost basis.

Fixed Assets. Fixed assets consist of frozen dessert manufacturing equipment that has been installed at our new co-packer’s frozen dessert manufacturing facilities. Depreciation is provided by charges to income using the straight-line method over the useful life of ten years.

Leases. Under Topic 842, operating lease expense is generally recognized evenly over the term of the lease. We have operating leases primarily consisting of facilities with remaining lease terms of approximately twoone to fourthree years. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. For lease agreements entered into or reassessed after the adoption of Topic 842, we have combined the lease and non-lease components in determining the lease liabilities and ROUright of use assets.

Income Taxes.Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded if there is uncertainty as to the realization of deferred tax assets. We will recognize a tax benefit in the financial statements for an uncertain tax position only if management’s assessment is that the position is “more likely than not” (i.e., a likelihood greater than 50 percent) to be allowed by the tax jurisdiction based solely on the technical merits of the position. The term “tax position” refers to a position in a previously filed tax return or a position expected to be taken in a future tax return that is reflected in measuring current or deferred income tax assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Our company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates (“ASUs”). ASUs not discussed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on our balance sheets or statements of operations.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments in this Update require a new topic to be added (Topic 326) to the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and removes the thresholds that entities apply to measure credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost, such as loans, trade receivables, reinsurance recoverables, and off-balance-sheet credit exposures, and held-to-maturity securities. Under current U.S. GAAP, entities generally recognize credit losses when it is probable that the loss has been incurred. The guidance under ASU 2016-13 will remove all current recognition thresholds and will require entities under the new current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model to recognize an allowance for credit losses for the difference between the amortized cost basis of a financial instrument and the amount of amortized cost that an entity expects to collect over the instrument’s contractual life. The new CECL model is based upon expected losses rather than incurred losses. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the effect that this new guidance will have on our financial statements and related disclosures.

Recent Developments

On February 24, 2021 David Mintz, our founder, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, passed away. Steven Kass, Chief Financial Officer, was appointed interim CEO by our Board of Directors and was confirmed as permanent CEO by the Board on April 27, 2021.

The

An outbreak of infectious respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus known as COVID-19 was first detected in China in December 2019 and has now spread globally. This outbreak has resulted in travel restrictions, closed international borders, enhanced health screenings at ports of entry and elsewhere, disruption of and delays in healthcare service preparation and delivery, prolonged quarantines, cancellations, supply chain disruptions, and lower consumer demand, layoffs, defaults and other significant economic impacts, as well as general concern and uncertainty.

13

The current severity of the pandemic and the uncertainty regarding the length of its effects could have negative consequences for our company. To date, the effects of the pandemic have not materially affected certain aspects of our company’s operations. All of our co-packing facilities are currently operating as normalnormally and the pandemic has not constrained any of our production requirements. We continue to be able to schedule trucks for delivery and a large majority of our customers are still operating and ordering our products as before. The cost of certain key ingredients has increased substantially due to short-term supply issues related to COVID-19. Additionally, our freight costs have increased due to a driver shortage caused by COVID-19. Our ability to collect money, pay bills, handle customer and consumer communications, schedule production, and order ingredients necessary for our production has not been impacted.

To date, the pandemic has had minimal impact on our sales. The majority of our sales relate to retail products sold in supermarkets. Supermarket sales in general have seen a substantial surge in business due to the pandemic, as consumers stock up on all products that they would normally purchase. We experienced a slight decline in sales at the beginning of the imposition of restrictionsThe only negative effect to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and experienced a declineour business to date has been with respect to our food service sales to retail outlets, such as restaurants and small food shops, which account for a small part of our total business. In the third quarterbusiness and with respect to our inability to regain our level of 2020, we were ableexport sales to slightly increase our sales compared to the third quarter of 2019 as a result of increased sales of our frozen dessert and food products. We expect that any potential decline in our sales will be offset in whole or in part by a similar decline in sales andforeign jurisdictions. Our marketing expensesefforts have also been constrained due to social distancing restrictions and other current government rules and regulations that preclude face to face sales meeting, attendance at trade shows and the initiation of new promotions.

Most of our administrative functions are being performed remotely. A small crew maintains the office for those functions that cannot be handled remotely. Our ability to collect money, pay bills, handle customer and consumer communications, schedule production, and order ingredients necessary for our production has not been impacted.

To date we have not experienced a significant change in the timeliness of payments of our invoices and our cash position remains stable withof approximately $1,399,000 of cash and cash equivalents$2,069,000 as of September 26, 2020.July 3, 2021 has improved since our fiscal year end

Our gross profit percentage was negatively impacted by our export cheese business accounting for a larger portion of our total vegan cheese business than in the same period last year. The gross profit on our vegan cheese export sales is significantly less than on our vegan cheese domestic sales. Sales allowances during the 2021 second quarter were $30,000 higher than in the 2020 second quarter. Additionally, sudden cost increases for ingredients due to COVID-related issues negatively impacted our gross profit. We anticipate these ingredient cost increases to continue for the balance of the year.

Our gross profit percentage was also negatively impacted by an increase in freight out expense, which is a component of cost of sales. Freight out expense, a significant part of our cost of sales, increased by $38,000,$42,000, or 19%, to $238,000$271,000 for the thirteen weeks ended September 26, 2020July 3, 2021 compared with $200,000$229,000 for the thirteen weeks ended September 28, 2019.June 27, 2020.

We expect this increase in freight out expense willto continue at a higher level than in 2019.

There can be no assurance, however, that our operating results will not be materially affected by inflation in the future. Our business is subject to minimal seasonal variations with slightly increased sales historically in the second and third quarters of the fiscal year. We expect to continue to experience slightly higher sales in the second and third quarters, and slightly lower sales in the fourth and first quarters, as a result of reduced sales of nondairy frozen desserts during those periods.

As of September 26, 2020,July 3, 2021, our company’sCompany’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer conducted an evaluation regarding the effectiveness of our company’sCompany’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).Act. Based upon the evaluation of these controls and procedures, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as September 26, 2020.July 3, 2021.

Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls. As provided in Rule 13a-14 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Disclosure Controls are defined as meaning controls and procedures that are designed with the objective of insuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, designed and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure Controls include, within the definition under the Exchange Act, and without limitation, controls and procedures to insureensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. Internal Controls are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that (1) our transactions are properly authorized; (2) our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use; and (3) our transactions are properly recorded and reported, all to permit the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of the interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management’s evaluation of internal control over financial reporting includes using the COSO framework, an integrated framework for the evaluation of internal controls issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, to identify the risks and control objectives related to the evaluation of our control environment.

On February 24, 2021 David Mintz, our founder, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, passed away. Steven Kass, Chief Financial Officer, was appointed interim CEO by our Board of Directors and was confirmed as permanent CEO by the Board on April 27, 2021.

Based on theirthe evaluation under the frameworks described above, Mr. Kass, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, havehas concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of September 26, 2020July 3, 2021 because of the following material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting:

A continuing lack of sufficient resources and an insufficient level of monitoring and oversight, which may restrict our ability to gather, analyze and report information relative to the financial statements, including but not limited to accounting estimates, reserves, allowances, and income tax matters, in a timely manner.

The limited size of the accounting department makes it impracticable to achieve an optimum separation of duties and monitoring of internal controls.

To date, we have been unable to remediate these weaknesses, which stem from our small workforce of sevenfour persons at September 26, 2020.July 3, 2021. As of the date of this filing we employ five people.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

If we do not qualify for retention or forgiveness of the Paycheck Protection Program loan, our financial condition may be adversely affected.

On May 4, 2020, we entered into a loan agreement with Valley National Bank as the lender under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) of the CARES Act administered by Small Business Administration (the “SBA”), and subsequently received a loan in the amount of approximately $165,000 (the “PPP Loan”) to help sustain our employee payroll costs, rent, and utilities. We made good faith certifications of our necessity for the PPP Loan and believe that we are in full compliance with the terms and conditions outlined in the CARES Act. However, as a consequence of post-PPP Loan rulemaking by the SBA, shifting regulatory guidance and/or other factors, we may be required to repay the PPP Loan before its expected maturity date. In addition, we hope to obtain forgiveness of all or a portion of the PPP Loan, as allowed under the CARES Act. As there is still substantial uncertainty about PPP forgiveness qualifications, we make no representations that we will qualify for forgiveness of all or part of the PPP Loan. Due to the incomplete and changing regulations around the PPP, new pronouncements may also change our current compliance status under the law, and any potential allowable forgiveness of the PPP Loan amount.
