Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023

(Unaudited)

1. Description of Business

Eastside Distilling (the “Company” or “Eastside Distilling”) was incorporated under the laws of Nevada in 2004 under the name of Eurocan Holdings, Ltd. In December 2014, the Company changed its corporate name to Eastside Distilling, Inc. to reflect the acquisition of Eastside Distilling, LLC. The Company manufactures, acquires, blends, bottles, imports, markets and sells a wide variety of alcoholic beverages under recognized brands. The Company currently employs 49 people in the United States.

The Company operates a beverage packaging and services business that operates in the beverage segment. During 2022, the Company made substantial investments to expand its product offerings to include digital can printing in the Pacific Northwest (together Craft Canning + Printing, “Craft C+P”). Craft C+P operates 13 mobile filling lines in Seattle, Washington; Spokane, Washington; and Portland, Oregon. The Company also offers co-packing services in Portland, Oregon offering end-to-end production capabilities.

The Company’s spirits’ brands span several alcoholic beverage categories, including whiskey, vodka, rum, and tequila. The Company sells products on a wholesale basis to distributors in open states and through brokers in control states.

2. Liquidity

The Company’s primary capital requirements are for cash used in operating activities and the repayment of debt. Funds for the Company’s cash and liquidity needs have historically not been generated from operations but rather from loans as well as from convertible debt and equity financings. The Company has been dependent on raising capital from debt and equity financings to meet the Company’s operating needs.

The Company had an accumulated deficit of $~~76.7~~78.3 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, having incurred a net loss of $~~1.6~~3.2 million during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023.

The Company’s ability to meet its ongoing operating cash needs over the next 12 months depends on growing revenues and gross margins, and generating positive operating cash flow primarily through increased sales, improved profit growth, and controlling expenses. In addition, the Company has been negotiating with creditors to reduce the interest burden and improve cash flow. If the Company is unable to reach an agreement with creditors or obtain additional financing, or additional financing is not available on acceptable terms, the Company may seek to sell assets, reduce operating expenses, reduce or eliminate marketing initiatives, and take other measures that could impair its ability to be successful.

Although the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 were prepared under the assumption that it would continue operations as a going concern, the report of its independent registered public accounting firm that accompanied the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 contained a going concern explanatory paragraph in which such firm expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, based on the financial statements at that time. If the Company cannot continue as a going concern, its stockholders would likely lose most or all of their investment in it.

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for Eastside Distilling, Inc. and subsidiaries were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or eliminated as permitted under the SEC’s rules and regulations. In management’s opinion, the unaudited consolidated financial statements include all material adjustments, all of which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, its operating results for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022 and its cash flows for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for an entire fiscal year. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Eastside Distilling, Inc.’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Craft Canning + Bottling, LLC (doing business as Craft Canning + Printing) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Galactic Unicorn Packaging, LLC (the Company’s newly acquired fixed co-packing assets) and MotherLode LLC. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023

(Unaudited)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

Net sales include product sales, less excise taxes and customer programs and incentives. The Company recognizes revenue by applying the following steps in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company recognizes sales when merchandise is shipped from a warehouse directly to wholesale customers (except in the case of a consignment sale). For consignment sales, which include sales to the Oregon Liquor Control Commission, the Company recognizes sales upon the consignee’s shipment to the customer. Postage and handling charges billed to customers are also recognized as sales upon shipment of the related merchandise. Shipping terms are generally FOB shipping point, and title passes to the customer at the time and place of shipment or purchase by customers at a retail location. For consignment sales, title passes to the consignee concurrent with the consignee’s shipment to the customer. The customer has no cancellation privileges after shipment or upon purchase at retail locations, other than customary rights of return.

Customer Programs

Customer programs, which include customer promotional discount programs, are a common practice in the alcoholic beverage industry. The Company reimburses wholesalers for an agreed amount to promote sales of products and to maintain competitive pricing. Amounts paid in connection with customer programs are recorded as reductions to net sales in accordance with ASC 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Amounts paid in customer programs totaled $~~(6,382)~~55,852 ~~due to the reversal of a customer discount~~ and $~~3,812~~0.1 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Excise Taxes

The Company is responsible for compliance with the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (“TTB”) regulations, which includes making timely and accurate excise tax payments. The Company is subject to periodic compliance audits by the TTB. Individual states also impose excise taxes on alcoholic beverages in varying amounts. The Company calculates its excise tax expense based upon units produced and on its understanding of the applicable excise tax laws. Excise taxes totaled $~~32,136~~65,735 and $~~40,062~~0.2 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales consists of all direct costs related to both spirits and canning for service, labor, overhead, packaging, and in-bound freight charges. Ingredients account for the largest portion of the cost of sales, followed by packaging and production costs.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses consist of sponsorships, agency fees, digital media, salary and benefit expenses, travel and entertainment expenses. Sales and marketing costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising and marketing expenses totaled $0.1 million and $~~0.2~~0.4 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

~~(Unaudited)~~

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist of salary and benefit expenses, travel and entertainment expenses for executive and administrative staff, rent and utilities, professional fees, insurance, and amortization and depreciation expense. General and administrative costs are expensed as incurred.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes as compensation expense all stock-based awards issued to employees. The compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the related stock-based awards and is recognized over the service period of stock-based awards, which is generally the same as the vesting period. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which estimates the fair value of each award on the date of grant based on a variety of assumptions including expected stock price volatility, expected terms of the awards, risk-free interest rate, and dividend rates, if applicable. Stock-based awards issued to nonemployees are recorded at fair value on the measurement date and are subject to periodic market adjustments at the end of each reporting period and as the underlying stock-based awards vest.

Concentrations

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, ~~one distributor~~two distributors represented 927% of trade receivables. As of December 31, 2022, one distributor represented 15% of trade receivables. Sales to one distributor and one wholesale customer accounted for 3727% of consolidated sales for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023. Sales to one distributor and one wholesale customer accounted for 4049% of consolidated sales for the ~~year~~six months ended ~~December 31,~~June 30, 2022.

Fair Value Measurements

GAAP defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements. GAAP permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and contains financial statement presentation and disclosure requirements for assets and liabilities for which the fair value option is elected. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, management has not elected to report any of the Company’s assets or liabilities at fair value under the “fair value option” provided by GAAP.

The hierarchy of fair value valuation techniques under GAAP provides for three levels: Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3, if applicable, generally would require significant management judgment. The three levels for categorizing assets and liabilities under GAAP’s fair value measurement requirements are as follows:

	Level 1:	Fair value of the asset or liability is determined using cash or unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

	Level 2:	Fair value of the asset or liability is determined using inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the applicable asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar (as opposed to identical) assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

	Level 3:	Fair value of the asset or liability is determined using unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement and reflect management’s own assumptions regarding the applicable asset or liability.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023

(Unaudited)

None of the Company’s assets or liabilities were measured at fair value as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022. However, GAAP requires the disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments that are not measured at fair value. Financial instruments consist principally of trade receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, notes payable, and the secured credit facilities. The estimated fair value of trade receivables, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying value due to the short period of time to their maturities. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the principal amounts of the Company’s notes approximate fair value.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Certain assets and liabilities acquired in a business acquisition are valued at fair value at the date of acquisition due to having indefinite lives. The Company, on an annual basis, tests the indefinite life assets for impairment. If an indefinite life asset is found to be impaired, then the Company will estimate its useful life and amortize the asset over the remainder of its useful life.

Inventories

Inventories primarily consist of bulk and bottled liquor and raw materials and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using an average costing methodology, which approximates cost under the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. A portion of the Company’s finished goods inventory is held by certain independent distributors on consignment until it is sold to a third party. The Company regularly monitors inventory quantities on hand and records write-downs for excess and obsolete inventories based primarily on the Company’s estimated forecast of product demand and production requirements. Such write-downs establish a new cost basis of accounting for the related inventory.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from three to seven years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the life of the lease or the useful lives of the assets, whichever is shorter. The cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization of property and equipment sold or otherwise disposed of are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reported as current period income or expense. The costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

Intangible Assets / Goodwill

The Company accounts for certain intangible assets at cost. Management reviews these intangible assets for probable impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If there is an indication of impairment, management would prepare an estimate of future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these estimated cash flows were less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss would be recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value. The Company performed a qualitative assessment of certain of its intangible assets as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and determined that they were not impaired.

Long-lived Assets

The Company accounts for long-lived assets, including certain intangible assets, at amortized cost. Management reviews long-lived assets for probable impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If there is an indication of impairment, management would prepare an estimate of future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these estimated cash flows were less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss would be recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value. The Company performed a qualitative assessment of certain of its long-lived assets as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and determined that they were not impaired.

Accounts Receivable Factoring Program

The Company has two accounts receivable factoring programs. One for its spirits customers (the “spirits program”) and another for its co-packing customers (the “co-packing program”). Under the programs, the Company has the option to sell certain customer account receivables in advance of payment for 75% (spirits program) or 85% (co-packing program) of the amount due. When the customer remits payment, the Company receives the remaining balance. For the spirits program, interest is charged on the advanced 75% payment at a rate of 2.4% for the first 30 days plus 1.44% for each additional ten-day period. For the co-packing program, interest is charged against the greater of $0.5 million or the total funds advanced at a rate of 11%% plus the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal. Under the terms of both agreements, the factoring provider has full recourse against the Company should the customer fail to pay the invoice. In accordance with ASC Topic 860 – Transfers and Servicing, the Company has concluded that these agreements have met all three conditions identified in ASC Topic 860-10-40-5 (a) – (c) and have accounted for this activity as a sale. Given the quality of the factored accounts, the Company has not recognized a recourse obligation. In certain limited instances, the Company may provide collection services on the factored accounts but does not receive any fees for acting as the collection agent, and as such, the Company has not recognized a service obligation asset or liability. The Company factored $~~0.1~~0.7 million of invoices and incurred $~~12,244~~20,821 in fees associated with the factoring programs during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, the Company had $0.1 million factored invoices outstanding.

Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.

10. Leases

The Company has various lease agreements in place for facilities, equipment and vehicles. Terms of these leases include, in some instances, scheduled rent increases, renewals, purchase options and maintenance costs, and vary by lease. These lease obligations expire at various dates through 2027. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. As the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at commencement to determine the present value of the lease payments. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less (“short-term leases”) are not recorded on the balance sheet and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, the amount of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were $~~2.7~~2.5 million and $~~2.8~~2.6 million, respectively. Aggregate lease expense for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 was $~~0.3~~0.7 million, consisting of $~~0.1~~0.7 million in operating lease expense for lease liabilities and $~~0.2~~2,385 million in short-term lease cost.

Aegis paid for the Aegis Note by paying $3.3 million to TQLA to fully satisfy a secured line of credit promissory note that the Company issued to TQLA on March 21, 2022; and the remaining $1.2 million was paid in cash to the Company. The Company pledged substantially all of its assets to secure its obligations to Aegis under the Aegis Note.

The Aegis Note bears interest at 9.25% per annum, payable every three months. The principal amount of the Aegis Note and a Commitment Fee of $45,000 will be payable on October 6, 2023. The Company has a conditional right to twice extend the maturity date of the Aegis Note by six months upon payment on each occasion of an extension fee of one percent of the principal balance. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, the Company had accrued $~~0.1~~0.2 million of interest expense.

See additional discussion in Note 16.

6% Secured Convertible Promissory Notes

On April 19, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) with accredited investors (“Subscribers”) for their purchase of up to $3.3 million of principal amount of 6% secured convertible promissory notes of the Company (“Note” or “Notes”), which notes are convertible into shares (“Conversion Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Notes with an initial conversion price of $~~2.20~~44.00. In connection with the purchase of such Notes, each Subscriber received a warrant (“Existing Warrant”), to purchase a number of shares of common stock (“Warrant Shares”) equal to 60% of the principal amount of any Note issued to such Subscriber divided by the conversion price of the Note issued to such Subscriber, at an exercise price equal to $~~2.60~~52.00. In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Security Agreement under which it granted the Subscribers a security interest in certain assets of the Company (the “Security Agreement”) and a Registration Rights Agreement under which the Company agreed to register for resale the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares. Concurrently therewith, the Company and the investors closed $3.3 million of the private offering.

Interest on the Notes accrues at a rate of 6% per annum and is payable either in cash or in shares of the Company’s common stock at the conversion price in the Note on each of the six and twelve month anniversaries of the issuance date and on the maturity date of October 18, 2022. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, the Company had accrued $~~0.1~~0.2 million of interest expense.

All amounts due under the Notes are convertible at any time after the issuance date, in whole or in part (subject to rounding for fractional shares), at the option of the holders into the Company’s common stock at a fixed conversion price, which is subject to adjustment as summarized below. The Notes were initially convertible into the Company’s common stock at an initial fixed conversion price of $~~2.20~~44.00 per share. This conversion price is subject to adjustment for stock splits, combinations, or similar events, among other adjustments. On April 1, 2022, the Company and the holders agreed to a reduction of the conversion price of the 6% secured convertible promissory notes to $~~1.30~~26.00 per share in connection with the Company’s issuance of a common stock purchase warrant to TQLA covering its loan amount of $3.5 million with a common stock value of $~~1.20~~24.00 per share.
~~The Company may prepay the Notes at any time in whole or in part by paying a sum of money equal to~~ ~~100% of the principal amount to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest, plus a prepayment fee equal to five percent (5%) of the principal amount to be repaid~~.

The Notes contain customary triggering events including but not limited to: (i) failure to make payments when due under the Notes; and (ii) bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company. If a triggering event occurs, each holder may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Notes (including all accrued and unpaid interest thereon), in cash.

The Notes are secured by a subordinated security interest in the Company’s assets pursuant to the terms of a Security Agreement entered into between the Company and the Subscribers.

On October 13, 2022, the Company entered into an Amendment Agreement with the holders of the 6% Secured Convertible Promissory Notes. The Amendment Agreement changed the Maturity Date of the Notes from October 18, 2022 to November 18, 2022. In consideration of the extension, the Company issued ~~96,153~~4,808 shares of its common stock to each of the Subscribers. The Company is in discussions to further extend the maturity date.

13. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Matters

On March 1, 2023, Sandstrom Partners, Inc. filed a complaint in the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for the County of Multnomah alleging the Company failed to pay for its services pursuant to an agreement entered into on October 16, 2019. The complaint seeks damages of $285,000, plus a judicial declaration, due to the Company’s failure to pay for the services. The Company believes that it paid for services rendered and, if any balance is outstanding, it is minimal. The Company intends to defend the case vigorously.

On December 15, 2020, Grover Wickersham filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District Court of Oregon against the Company. Mr. Wickersham, the former CEO and Chairman of the Board of the Company, has asserted causes of action for fraud in the inducement, breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, defamation, interference with economic advantage, elder financial abuse, and dissemination of false and misleading proxy materials. The Company disputes the allegations and intends to defend the case vigorously.

Regardless of the outcome, litigation can, among other things, be time consuming and expensive to resolve, and can divert management resources.

14. Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

Basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without considering any dilutive items. Potentially dilutive securities consist of the incremental common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options, convertible notes and warrants. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. There were no anti-dilutive common shares included in the calculation of income (loss) per common share as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

~~(Unaudited)~~

The Series B Preferred Stock accrues dividends at a rate of 6% per annum, payable annually on the last day of December of each year. Dividends shall accrue from day to day, whether or not declared, and shall be cumulative. Dividends are payable at the Company’s option either in cash or “in kind” in shares of common stock; provided, however that dividends may only be paid in cash following the fiscal year in which the Company has net income (as shown in its audited financial statements contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for such year) of at least $0.5 million. For “in-kind” dividends, holders will receive that number of shares of common stock equal to (i) the amount of the dividend payment due such stockholder divided by (ii) the volume weighted average price of the common stock for the 90 trading days immediately preceding a dividend date (“VWAP”). For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company issued dividends of ~~460,093~~23,005 shares of common stock at a VWAP of $~~0.33~~6.60 per share. For both the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company accrued $~~37,500~~75,000 of preferred dividends.

Stock-Based Compensation

On September 8, 2016, the Company adopted the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”). Pursuant to the terms of the plan, on January 1, 2022 the number of shares available for grant under the 2016 Plan reset to ~~5,225,141~~261,257 shares, equal to 8% of the number of outstanding shares of the Company’s capital stock, calculated on an as-converted basis, on March 31 of the preceding calendar year, and then added to the prior year plan amount. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, there were ~~61,752~~2,487 options and ~~7,115,483~~355,774 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) outstanding under the 2016 Plan, with vesting schedules varying between immediate or three (3) years from the grant date.

The Company also issues, from time to time, options that are not registered under a formal option plan. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, there were no options outstanding that were not issued under the Plans.

Exercisable as of June 30, 2023 2,487 $ 62.07

The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 was $0. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, all options vested.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to measure the grant-date fair value of stock options. The grant-date fair value of stock options issued to employees is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Stock-based awards issued to nonemployees are recorded at fair value on the measurement date and are subject to periodic market adjustments as the underlying stock-based awards vest.

To determine the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model, the calculation takes into consideration the effect of the following:

● Exercise price of the option
● Fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant
● Expected term of the option
● Expected volatility over the expected term of the option
● Risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option

The calculation includes several assumptions that require management’s judgment. The expected term of the options is calculated using the simplified method described in GAAP. The simplified method defines the expected term as the average of the contractual term and the vesting period. Estimated volatility is derived from volatility calculated using historical closing prices of common shares of similar entities whose share prices are publicly available for the expected term of the options. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury constant maturities in effect at the time of grant for the expected term of the options.

Sales increased for both the three ~~month~~and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 due to growth in digital can printing sales, partially offset by ~~soft~~lower mobile canning sales. We have reduced mobile canning operations to focus on digital printing, sequentially improving each month in sales and operating profit.

Spirits
~~Spirits~~
WeSales decreased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 due to significant bulk spirits sales. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we sold 250 barrels for gross proceeds of $0.6 ~~million for~~million. For the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31, 2023 and 798~~June 30, 2022, we sold 651 barrels for gross proceeds of $2.6 million, and nearly 800 barrels for $1.5 million during the first quarter, for a total of $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Sales decreased $0.3 million and $0.6 million for the three and six months ended ~~March 31, 2022.

Cost of sales were ~~$2.2~~$4.8 million and ~~$2.8~~$6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $2.6 million and $3.4 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Craft C+P

Cost of sales increased for both the three ~~month~~and the six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 due to growth in printing sales volumes and related inventory costs, scrap related to the printer and ~~printer~~ depreciation, partially offset by decreased labor ~~costs.~~costs

Spirits

Gross Profit

Gross profit is calculated by subtracting the cost of products sold and services rendered from net sales. Gross profit was ~~$0.6~~$0.7 million and ~~$1.0~~$2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $26,272 and $1.5 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Bulk sales gross profit was $0.5 and $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $0 and $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Craft C+P

Craft C+P’s negative gross margin significantly decreased for both the three ~~month~~and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 primarily due to ~~the high cost of goods sold.~~continued rapid growth in can printing and related sales.

Spirits

Gross margin ~~increased~~decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2023 primarily due to higher bulk spirits gross margins achieved in the prior year, as well as the negative portfolio mix with higher sales of low margin Portland Potato Vodka. Gross margin decreased for the three ~~month~~months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 primarily due to bulk spirits and distributor profits.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses were ~~$0.5~~$0.9 million and ~~$0.6~~$1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $0.4 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, due to lower ~~marketing costs.~~sponsorship costs and reduced headcount as part of spirits restructuring.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were ~~$1.4~~$2.6 million and ~~$1.9~~$3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $1.2 million and $1.7 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, primarily due to decreased professional fees and ~~compensation.~~compensation from reduced headcount.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was $0.7 million and $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $0.3 million and $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the amortization of debt issuance costs on agreements that matured during 2022.

Net Income (Loss)

Net loss was $3.2 million and $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $1.6 million and ~~$2.0~~$1.8 million for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. ~~The primary reason for the reduction in net loss was that decreased barrels sales during the three months ended March 31, 2023 were offset by decreased operating expenses.~~

Preferred Stock Dividends

Preferred stock dividends were $37,500 and $75,000 for ~~both~~ the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and related to the Series B preferred stock dividend of 6% per annum.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary capital requirements are for cash used in operating activities and the repayment of debt. Funds for our cash and liquidity needs have historically not been generated from operations but rather from short-term credit in the form of extended payment terms from suppliers as well as proceeds from loans and the sale of convertible debt and equity. We have been dependent on raising capital from debt and equity financings to meet our operating needs.

We had an accumulated deficit of ~~$76.7~~$78.3 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, having incurred a net loss of ~~$1.6~~$3.2 million during the ~~three month~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, we had ~~$0.3~~$0.8 million of cash on hand with negative working capital of ~~$15.2~~$15.8 million.

Our ability to meet our ongoing operating cash needs over the next 12 months depends on receipt of additional financing, which in turn depends on our growing revenues and gross margins, and generating positive operating cash flow, primarily through increased sales, profitable operations, and controlling expenses. None of this is assured, as we currently anticipate recording a net loss for 2023. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, or additional financing is not available on acceptable terms, we may seek to sell assets, reduce operating expenses, reduce or eliminate marketing initiatives and take other measures that could impair our ability to be successful.

We continue to make substantial investments in Craft C+P, which we believe will deliver improved results during 2023, in part due to our acquisition of a state-of-the-art digital can printer that will add incremental services and revenue.

25
Our cash flow results for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:

Our investing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2023 were negligible.~~equipment.
27

Financing Activities

Total cash provided by financing activities was ~~$0.9~~$0.7 million during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31, 2022~~June 30, 2023 primarily consisted of ~~the~~ proceeds from ~~a note payable with a related party~~the issuance of ~~$2.0 million; offset by $0.9 million of principal payments of our secured credit facilities and $0.2 million of payments on principal of notes payable. There was no~~stock. Our financing ~~activity during~~activities in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31, 2023.~~June 30, 2022 were negligible.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United ~~States.~~States generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These items are monitored and analyzed by management for changes in facts and circumstances, and material changes in these estimates could occur in the future. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from our estimates if past experience or other assumptions do not turn out to be substantially accurate.

In connection with the preparation of our financial statements for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, there was one accounting estimate we made that was subject to a high degree of uncertainty and was critical to our results, as follows:

Intangible Assets

On September 12, 2019, we purchased the Azuñia brand, the direct sales team, existing product inventory, supply chain relationships and contractual agreements from Intersect Beverage, LLC, an importer and distributor of tequila and related products. The Azuñia brand has been determined to have an indefinite life and will not be amortized. We do, however, on an annual basis, test the indefinite life assets for impairment. If the carrying value of the indefinite life assets are found to be impaired, then we will record an impairment loss and reduce the carrying value of the asset’s estimate the useful life of the brand and amortize the asset over the remainder of its useful life.

We estimate the brand’s fair value using market information to estimate future cash flows and will impair it when its carrying amount exceeds its estimated fair value, in which case we will write it down to its estimated fair value. We consider market values for similar assets when available. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate fair value, including making assumptions about future cash flows, net sales and discount rates.

26
We have the option, before quantifying the fair value, to evaluate qualitative factors to assess whether it is more likely than not that our brand is impaired. If we determine that is not the case, then we are not required to quantify the fair value. That assessment also takes considerable management judgment.

As of December 31, 2022, as a result of the review described above, we found the Azuñia brand to be impaired and reduced its carrying cost by $7.5 million.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this item.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) that are designed to provide reasonable assurances that the information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

We conducted an evaluation (pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act)), under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer has concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023.

There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On March 1, 2023, Sandstrom Partners, Inc. filed a complaint in the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for the County of Multnomah alleging the Company failed to pay for its services pursuant to an agreement entered into on October 16, 2019. The complaint seeks damages of $285,000, plus a judicial declaration, due to the Company’s failure to pay for the services. The Company believes that it paid for services rendered and, if any balance is outstanding, it is minimal. The Company intends to defend the case vigorously.

On December 15, 2020, Grover Wickersham filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District Court of Oregon against the Company. Mr. Wickersham, the former CEO and Chairman of the Board of the Company, has asserted causes of action for fraud in the inducement, breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, defamation, interference with economic advantage, elder financial abuse, and dissemination of false and misleading proxy materials The Company disputes the allegations and intends to defend the case vigorously.

We are not currently subject to any other material legal proceedings; however, we could be subject to legal proceedings and claims from time to time in the ordinary course of our business, or legal proceedings we considered immaterial may in the future become material. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can, among other things, be time consuming and expensive to resolve, and divert management resources.
