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, agricultural and ~~agricultural~~aquaculture products are accurate. We care about food, agricultural and ~~other agricultural~~aquaculture 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.

We also provide a wide range of professional services and technology solutions that generate incremental revenue specific to the food and agricultural industry and drive sustainable value creation. Finally, the Company’s Where Food Comes From Source Verified® retail and restaurant labeling program utilizes the verification of product attributes to connect consumers directly to the source of the food they purchase through product labeling and web-based information sharing and education.

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 results of operations, financial position and cash flows of Where Food Comes From, Inc. and its subsidiaries, Where Food Comes From Organic, Inc. (“WFCFO”), Validus Verifications Services, LLC (“Validus”), Sterling Solutions (“Sterling”), SureHarvest Services, Inc. (“SureHarvest”), ~~A Bee Organic, Sow Organic, JVF Consulting~~ and Postelsia Holdings, Ltd. (“Postelsia”) (collectively referred to as “we,” “us,” and “our” throughout this Form 10-Q). 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, 2021, included in our Form 10-K filed on February 28, 2022. 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 and nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 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. 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. Because of the seasonality of the business and 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. ASU’s were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

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 and restricted stock awards 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):

Schedule of Reconciliation of Basic and Diluted Income Per Share Computations

						2022		2021		2022		2021
	Three months ended March 31,				Three months ended September 30,				Nine months ended September 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021		2022		2021
Basic:
Weighted average shares outstanding		6,067		6,136		5,936		6,094		6,019		6,146

Diluted:
Weighted average shares outstanding		6,067		6,136		5,936		6,094		6,019		6,146
Weighted average effects of dilutive securities		83		95		80		63		82		61
Total		6,150		6,231		6,016		6,157		6,101		6,207

Antidilutive securities:		17		-		17		17		17		17

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.

In June 2022, we purchased an aggregate of $178,000 in Bitcoin (a “cryptocurrency” or “digital asset”) and currently account for all digital assets held as indefinite-lived intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other. We have ownership of and control over our digital assets and may use a third-party custodial service to secure it. The digital assets are initially recorded at cost and are subsequently remeasured on the consolidated balance sheet at cost, net of any impairment losses incurred since acquisition, if applicable.

We determine the fair value of our digital assets on a quarterly basis in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, based on quoted prices on the active exchange(s) that we have determined is the principal market for such assets (Level 1 inputs). We perform an analysis each quarter to identify whether significant events or changes in circumstances, indicate that it is more likely than not that our digital assets are permanently impaired. In determining if an impairment has occurred, we consider the lowest market price of one unit of digital asset quoted on an active exchange since acquiring the digital asset. If the current carrying value of a digital asset significantly exceeds the fair value so determined, a permanent impairment loss has occurred with respect to the digital assets in the amount equal to the difference between their carrying values and the price determined.

Impairment losses are recognized within the Other income / (expense) section in the consolidated statements of operations in the period in which the impairment is identified. The impaired digital assets are written down to their fair value at the time of impairment and this new cost basis will not be adjusted upward for any subsequent increase in fair value. Gains are not recorded until realized upon sale(s), at which point they are presented net of any impairment losses for the same digital assets held within Other income / (expense). In determining the gain to be recognized upon sale, we calculate the difference between the sales price and carrying value of the digital assets sold immediately prior to sale.

Note 7 – 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 and restricted 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.

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 and nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 we recorded an income tax expense of approximately $~~163,000~~298,000 and $579,000, respectively, compared to income tax expense of $~~11,000~~298,000 and $413,000 for the same 2021 ~~period.~~periods. The effective tax rate for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2021 was favorably impacted by the non-taxability of the PPP loan forgiveness income.

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

With each acquisition, we assess the need to disclose discrete information related to our operating segments. Because of the similarities of certain of our acquisitions that provide certification and verification services, we aggregate operations into 1one verification and certification reportable segment. The operating segments included in the aggregated verification and certification segment include IMI Global, WFCFO and Validus. 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.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

This information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contained in the Form 10−K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. The following discussion and analysis includes historical and certain forward−looking information that should be read together with the accompanying consolidated financial statements, related footnotes and the discussion below of certain risks and uncertainties that could cause future operating results to differ materially from historical results or from the expected results indicated by forward−looking statements.

Business Overview

Where Food Comes From, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“WFCF,” the “Company,” “our,” “we,” or “us”) is a leading trusted resource for third-party verification of food production practices in North America. The Company estimates that isit supports more than approximately 17,500 farmers, ranchers, vineyards, wineries, processors, retailers, distributors, trade associations, consumer brands, chefs, and restaurants with a wide variety of value-added services provided through its family of verifiers, including IMI Global (“IMI”), Where Food Comes From Organic (“WFCFO” - previously International Certification Services and A Bee Organic), Validus Verification Services (“Validus”), and Sterling Solutions. In order to have credibility, product claims such as gluten-free, non-GMO, non-hormone treated, humane handling, and others require verification by an independent third-party such as WFCF. The Company’s principal business is conducting both on-site and desk audits to verify that claims being made about livestock, aquaculture, crops and other food products are accurate.

Through SureHarvest Services LLC (“SureHarvest”) and Postelsia Holdings, Ltd. (“Postelsia”), we primarily provide a wide range of professional services and technology solutions that generate incremental revenue specific to the food and agricultural industry and drive sustainable value creation.

Finally, the Company’s Where Food Comes From Source Verified® retail and restaurant labeling program utilizes the verification of product attributes to connect consumers directly to the source of the food they purchase through product labeling and web-based information sharing and education. With the use of Quick Response Code (“QR”) technology, consumers can instantly access information about the producers behind their food.

WFCF was founded in 1996 and incorporated in the state of Colorado as a subchapter C corporation in 2006. The Company’s shares of common stock trade on the NASDAQ Capital Market (“NASDAQ”), under the stock ticker symbol, “WFCF.”

The Company’s original name – Integrated Management Information, Inc. (d.b.a. IMI Global) – was changed to Where Food Comes From, Inc. in 2012 to better reflect the Company’s mission. Early growth was attributable to source and age verification services for beef producers that wanted access to markets overseas following the discovery of “mad cow” disease in the U.S. Over the years, WFCF has expanded its portfolio to include verification and software services for most food groups and over 50 programs and organizations. This growth has been achieved both organically and through the acquisition of other companies.

~~Coronavirus Pandemic (COVID-19)~~Pandemics, the Inflationary Environment and other Weather Related Risks

The ~~recent uptick in~~ongoing outbreaks of pandemics, including COVID-19 ~~outbreaks has continued~~and Avian Influenza, continue to impact our business. Due to safety and social distancing reasons, ~~some~~ customers ~~have requested~~continue to request postponement of onsite visits. We ~~continue to~~ work closely with our customers and standard setting bodies to identify innovative ~~solutions.~~ solutions and reschedule onsite visits as timely as possible.

~~Additionally, i~~

In late 2021, we were informed by our key tag supplier that materials were becoming scarcer and the ability to meet our need was difficult. In anticipation of this risk, we worked with all our tag suppliers to build our inventory by purchasing excess supply. We believe we have reduced this risk, however, should material shortages continue to impact our tag suppliers, we may be unable to meet the needs of our customers which could materially impact our revenues. We could also experience increases in the cost of products sourced locally and from abroad.

The economy is facing inflationary pressures that has resulted in a few headwinds for our business, most notably in the form of a tight labor market where job candidates have considerable bargaining power which has driven wages up. Additionally, we are experiencing higher labor and benefit related costs to retain our existing personnel. We believe we will continue to see significant pressure in our labor and benefit related costs which impacts both our gross margins and net income.

We also continue to monitor for weakened demand in our software and related consulting business segment due to significant customer concentration. Increased inflation could place pressure on our customers’ timing of approval for consulting projects to move forward. Currently, it is difficult to estimate the financial impact to our software and related consulting revenue, if any. We actively market our sustainability solutions and services to new types of customers. We believe the growing awareness of environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) matters creates a key opportunity for us because we have the expertise and technology needed to help companies achieve ESG objectives within the food supply chain.

The drought conditions that impacted nearly one-half of the United States in the first half of 2022 predominately affected our ranch customers resulting in fewer cattle subject to verification. While this doesn’t directly impact our audit related revenue, it does impact our product sales and other related supply chain fees due to smaller herd sizes. However, we believe the long-term outlook for our industry remains favorable because the demand for verified cattle is still strong, as well as the premiums on verified cattle sold at auction. Additionally, during an inflationary period, most consumers continue to consume beef, although they may trade the quality of protein cut (such as steak) for a lesser cut (such as ground beef).

We continue to monitor ~~the COVID-19 situation~~all of these risks closely and will react accordingly, ~~to any future restrictions or limitations,~~ while keeping the interest of our customers, employees and ~~business~~shareholders in mind. Please refer to our risk factors included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 for additional information for risks specifically related to COVID-19.

Seasonality

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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately ~~$6.1~~$6.0 million compared to approximately $5.4 million at December 31, 2021. Our working capital at ~~March~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, ~~2022~~2021 was approximately ~~$6.0 million compared to~~ $5.7 million ~~at December 31, 2021.~~and $5.4 million, respectively.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and 2021 was approximately ~~$1.1 million compared to $1.2 million during the same period in 2021.~~$3.0 million. Net cash provided by operating activities is driven by our net income and adjusted by non-cash items. Non-cash adjustments primarily include depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, forgiveness of Paycheck Protection Program loan in 2021, and deferred taxes. Fluctuations are primarily due to operating performance offset by the timing of cash receipts and cash disbursements. The cash provided by operating activities for the period ending ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 was primarily driven by a change in accrued expenses, accounts receivable and prepaid expenses. The cash provided by operating activities for the period ending ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2021 was primarily driven by a change in ~~accounts receivable, inventory and~~ accrued expenses and ~~other current liabilities.~~deferred revenue, offset by cash used for inventory.

Net cash used in investing activities for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, was approximately ~~$16,000 compared to~~ $0.2 ~~million in the 2021 period.~~million. Net cash used in the period ending ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 ~~and~~was primarily for the purchase of digital assets. Net cash used in the period ending September 30, 2021 was primarily for the ~~further development~~purchase of ~~internal use software.~~a vehicle and equipment.

Net cash used in financing activities for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and 2021 was approximately ~~$0.4 million.~~$2.2 million and $1.6 million, respectively. Cash used for the periods ending ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, was primarily due to the repurchase of common shares under the Stock Buyback ~~Plan.~~Plan and dividends paid to shareholders in 2021.

Over the past several years, our growth has been funded primarily through cashflows from operations. We continually evaluate all funding options, including additional offerings of our securities to private, public and institutional investors and other credit facilities as they become available.

The primary driver of our operating cash flow is our third-party verification solutions, specifically the gross margin generated from services provided. Therefore, we focus on the elements of those operations, including revenue growth, gross margin and long-term projects that ensure a steady stream of operating profits to enable us to meet our cash obligations. On a weekly basis, we review the performance of each of our revenue streams focusing on third-party verification solutions compared with prior periods and our operating plan. We believe that our various sources of capital, including cash flow from operating activities, overall improvement in our performance, and our ability to obtain additional financing, are adequate to finance current operations as well as the repayment of current debt obligations. We are not aware of any other event or trend that would negatively affect our liquidity. In the event such a trend develops, we believe that there are sufficient financing avenues available to us and from our internal cash-generating capabilities to adequately manage our ongoing business.

The culmination of all our efforts has brought significant opportunities to us, including increased investor confidence and renewed interest in our company, as well as the potential to develop business relationships with long-term strategic partners. In keeping with our core business, we will continue to review our business model with a focus on profitability, long-term capital solutions and the potential impact of acquisitions or divestitures, if such an opportunity arises.

Our plan for continued growth is primarily based on diversification and bundling opportunities in our product offerings within national and international markets, as well as potential acquisitions. We believe that there are significant growth opportunities available to us because of growing consumer awareness and demand on a national level. Internationally, a quality verification program is often the only way to overcome import or export restrictions.

Debt Facility

The Company has a revolving line of credit (“LOC”) agreement which matures April 12, 2025. The LOC provides for $75,080 in working capital. The interest rate is at the Wall Street Journal prime rate plus 1.50% and is adjusted daily. Principal and interest are payable upon demand, but if demand is not made, then annual payments of accrued interest only are due, with the principal balance due upon maturity. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the effective interest rate was ~~5.00%~~7.75% and 4.75%, respectively. The LOC is collateralized by all the business assets of Where Food Comes From Organic, Inc. (“WFCFO”). As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, there were no amounts outstanding under this LOC.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements of any type.

Verification and Certification Segment

Verification and certification service revenues consist of fees charged for verification audits and other verification services that the Company performs for customers. ~~Fees~~Fees earned from our WFCF labeling program are also included in our verification and certification revenues as it represents a value-added extension of our source verification. Verification and certification service revenue for the three and nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 increased ~~16.0%~~10.0% and 10.8%, respectively, compared to the same ~~period~~periods in 2021, primarily due to increased customer demand for our product offerings.

Our product sales are an ancillary part of our verification and certification services and represent sales of cattle identification ear tags. Product sales for the three and months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 increased ~~39.0%~~14.8% and 13.1%, respectively, compared to the same period in 2021, primarily due to increased pricing ~~increased demand~~ and limited supply elsewhere in the market.

Costs of revenues for our verification and certification segment for the three and nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 were approximately ~~$2.0~~$3.7 million and $9.1 million, respectively, compared to approximately ~~$1.8~~$3.3 million and $8.3 million, respectively, for the same ~~period~~periods in 2021. Gross margin for the three and nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 was ~~46.3%~~44.9% and 44.2%, respectively compared to ~~43.6%~~45.7% and 43.4%, respectively, in 2021 primarily due to a change in product mix of our offerings which included new customers and new ~~offerings.~~offerings, offset by increases in compensation related costs due to a tight labor market and inflation. Our margins are generally impacted by various fixed costs such as cost of products, salaries and benefits, insurance and taxes.

Other operating expenses for the three and nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 ~~slightly~~ increased by approximately ~~2.3%~~20.3% and 10.4%, respectively, compared to the same three and nine month ~~period~~periods in 2021. The increase was primarily due to ~~increased~~increases in compensation ~~expense~~ related costs due to a tight labor market and inflation, as well as, an increase in headcount. ~~Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased 4.0% compared to the same three month period in 2021.~~

Software and Related Consulting Segment

Software and related consulting revenue primarily represents fees earned from a wide range of professional consulting services and technology solutions that support our verification business and generate incremental revenue specific to the food and agricultural industry. Software and related consulting revenue for the three and nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 increased approximately ~~201.3%~~10.2% and 69.2%, respectively compared to the same ~~period~~periods in 2021. The ~~three~~nine month increase is due to a significant short-term engagement with a Japanese party to promote Japanese seafood products into the American supply chain. While we are hopeful that the engagement will be an annual recurring source of revenue for our consulting segment, as well as a potential opportunity for our verification and certification segment, we can give no assurance that it will be an ongoing source of revenue. Additionally, because this was a short-term engagement, it is not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for any other quarter or for the full fiscal year.

Costs of revenues for our software and related consulting segment for the three and nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 ~~and 2021~~ was approximately ~~$1.2~~$0.4 and $1.9 million, respectively, compared to approximately $0.3 million ~~respectively.~~and $1.0 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2021. Gross margin for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 decreased to ~~13.1%~~29.3% compared to ~~27.6%~~31.7% for the same period in 2021. Gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased to 19.6% compared to 28.7% for the same period in 2021. The ~~three~~nine month decrease in gross margin is due primarily to increased cost of contract labor to support the short-term consulting engagement mentioned above.

Other operating expenses for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 increased approximately $12,000 compared to the same period in 2021. Other operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased approximately ~~28.3%~~$41,000 compared to the same period in 2021. Depreciation and amortization for the three and nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 decreased ~~2.0%~~$9,000 and $13,000, respectively, compared to the same ~~three month period~~periods in 2021. ~~The decrease is predominately due to a reduction in headcount resulting in less compensation expense.~~

As with all of our acquisitions, we continue to identify synergies and implement best practices. We focus our efforts to create value in various ways such as improving the performance of our acquired businesses, removing excess capacity, creating market access for products, acquiring skills and technologies more quickly or at a lower cost than we can build in-house, exploiting our industry-specific scalability and bundling opportunities, and picking winners early and helping them develop their businesses. Achieving any or all of these strategies take time to implement. We have learned that it can take two to three years after an acquisition to fully understand the complexities, at which time, we have seen solid improvements in revenues and/or costs.

Dividend Income from Progressive Beef

For the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company received dividend income of $50,000 and $30,000, respectively, from Progressive Beef representing a distribution of their earnings. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company received dividend income totaling $150,000 and $90,000, respectively.

Income Tax Expense

The provision 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 and nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, we recorded income tax expense of approximately ~~$163,000~~$298,000 and $579,000, respectively, compared to income tax expense of ~~$11,000~~$298,000 and $413,000 for the same ~~period~~periods in 2021. The effective tax rate for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2021 was favorably impacted by the non-taxability of the PPP loan forgiveness income.

Net Income and Per Share Information

As a result of the foregoing, net income attributable to WFCF shareholders for the three and nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 was approximately ~~$0.5~~$0.8 million and ~~$0.08~~$1.5 million, respectively, and $0.13 and $0.25, respectively, per basic and diluted common share, respectively, compared to net income of approximately ~~$1.2~~$0.9 million and ~~$0.19~~$2.2 million, respectively, and $0.14 and $0.36, respectively, per basic and diluted common share for the same ~~period~~periods in 2021.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, to ensure that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in such reports is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive and financial officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. We believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements and can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. 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.

There have not been any other changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
