Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including statements regarding our strategy, future operations, future financial position, future revenue, projected costs, prospects, plans, objectives of management and expected market growth, are forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

 

The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “target,” “potential,” “contemplate,” “goals,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “continue,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements about our plans and ability to raise additional capital, including through equity offerings, debt financing, collaborations, strategic alliances, sales of assets, other merger and acquisition activities, or licensing arrangements; the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic; wide spread health concerns; supply chain disruptions; the impact of inflation; consumer preferences; spending and debt levels; and the general economic and credit environment. 

 

These forward-looking statements are only predictions and we may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and operating results. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements included and in “Part I, Item 1A - Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 202231, 2023 that could cause actual future results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make.

 

You should read this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the documents that we have filed as exhibits to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.

Twinlab Consolidated Holdings, Inc.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

(amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

 

Note 1 Nature of Business

 

Nature of Business

 

Twinlab Consolidated Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”, “Twinlab,” “we,” “our” and “us”) was incorporated on October 24, 2013 under the laws of the State of Nevada as Mirror Me, Inc. On August 7, 2014, we amended our articles of incorporation and changed our name to Twinlab Consolidated Holdings, Inc.

 

We are an integrated marketer, distributor, and retailer of branded nutritional supplements and other natural products sold to and through domestic health and natural food stores, mass market retailers, specialty store retailers, on-line retailers, and websites. Internationally, we market and distribute branded nutritional supplements and other natural products to and through health and natural product distributors and retailers.

 

Our products include vitamins, minerals, specialty supplements and sports nutrition products sold under the Twinlab® brand name, a market leader in the healthy aging and beauty from within categories sold under the Reserveage Nutrition and ResVitale® brand names; diet and energy products sold under the Metabolife® brand name; and a full line of herbal teas sold under the Alvita® brand name. To accommodate consumer preferences, our products come in various formulations and delivery forms, including capsules, tablets, softgels, chewables, liquids, sprays and powders. These products are sold primarily through health and natural food stores and on-line retailers, supermarkets, and mass-market retailers. 

 

We also performperformed services between private label distributors and contract manufacturers under the NutraScience Labs (“NSL”) brand name. NSL facilitatesfacilitated the production of new supplements to market and reformulatesreformulated existing products to include scientifically-backed ingredients. We provideprovided our customers with numerous production services, including manufacturing, testing, label and packaging design, order fulfillment, and regulatory compliance.

 

NSL facilitatesfacilitated the contract manufacture of a variety of high-quality vitamin and supplement products, including but not limited to, immune support supplements, cognitive support products, prebiotics and probiotics, supplements for weight management, and sports nutrition supplements. Our role in the production of these products iswas to help our customers manufacture or reformulate dietary supplements for sale and distribution. We dodid this by working with contract manufacturers to build scientifically backed formulas for resale to our end customers. We also simplifysimplified the production process by providing quality control checks, storing inventory on site, labeling and designing finished products, and drop shipping finished products ready for sale to our end customers. We dodid not market these private label products, but rather sellsold the products to the customer, who iswas then responsible for the marketing, distribution, and sale to retailers or to their end customers. The services performed under NSL ceased with the abandonment of operations that began in July 2023.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business. As of September 30, 2022, 2023, we had an accumulated deficitdeficit of $353,071368,589. Historical losses are primarily attributable to lower than planned sales resulting from low fill rates on demand due to limitations of our working capital, delayed product introductions and postponed marketing activities, merger-related and other restructuring costs as well as the abandonment of operations of NSL, and interest and refinancing charges associated with our debt refinancing. Losses have been funded primarily through debt.

 

Because of our history of operating losses and significant interest expense on our debt, we have a working capital deficiency of $124,008138,472 as of September 30, 20222023. We also have $100,037$95,349 of debt, presented in current liabilities. These continuing conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Management is addressing operating issues through the following actions: focusing on growing the core business and brands; continuing emphasis on major customers and key products; reducing operating costs that include significant workforce and salary expense reduction and continuing to negotiate lower prices from major suppliers. suppliers. We believe that we maywill need to raise additional capital to execute our business plan. If additional funding is required, therethrough debt, equity or the sale of assets during the current year. There can be no assurance that sources of funding will be available when needed on acceptable terms or at all. To meet capital requirements,If we cannot obtain additional funding when required, the Company may consider sellingsell certain assets, or seeking financing through a combination of equity offerings, debt financing,enter into collaborations, strategic alliances, merger and acquisition activities, and licensing agreements.agreements, negotiate with its principal lenders, wind-up operations of other subsidiaries, or file for bankruptcy protection.

Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Except as described herein, there have been no changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, within the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” accompanying the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.2022.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and as required by Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20212022 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 29, 2022.31, 2023. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. All amounts and disclosures set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect adoption of these changes.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant management estimates include those with respect to returns and allowances, allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, allowance for credit losses, reserves for inventory obsolescence, the recoverability of long-lived assets, intangibles and goodwill.

 

Contract Liabilities

 

Our contract liabilities consist of customer deposits and contractual guaranteed returns. Net contract liabilities are recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and consisted of the following:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

We apply the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

 

Level 1 – inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 – inputs are other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3 – inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the underlying asset or liability.

 

The Company did not have any financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 20222023 and December 31, 20212022.


Accounts Receivable and Allowances

 

Our allowance for trade receivables consists of two components: an allowance for customer claims and an allowance for credit losses. 


We estimate expected credit losses on our trade receivables in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 326 -Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. We adopted this accounting standard prospectively on the first day of our 2023 fiscal year. 


We measure the allowance for credit losses on trade receivables on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. We pool our trade receivables by type, wholesalers and retailers. Our historical credit loss experience provides the basis for our estimation of expected credit losses. We use a two-year average of annual loss rates as a starting point for our estimation and make adjustments to the historical loss rates to account for differences in current conditions impacting the collectability of our receivable pools. We generally monitor macroeconomic indicators to assess whether adjustments are necessary to reflect current conditions.


We grant credit to customers and generally do not require collateral or other security. We perform credit evaluations of our customers and provide for expected claims related to promotional items, customer discounts, shipping shortages, damages, and doubtful accounts based upon historical bad debt and claims experience. As of September 30, 2023, total allowances amounted to $3,045, of which $2,294 was related to doubtful accounts receivable and $32 was related to expected credit losses. As of December 31, 2022, total allowances amounted to $1,000,$1,546, of which $153$534 was related to doubtful accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2021, total allowances amounted to $1,391, of which $511 was related to doubtful accounts receivable.

 

Net Income (Loss) Income per Common Share

 

Basic net income (loss) income per common share (“Basic EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income(loss) income per common share (“Diluted EPS”) is computed by dividing net income(loss) income by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive potential common shares then outstanding. Potential dilutive common share equivalents consist of total shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants to acquire common stock using the treasury stock method and the average market price per share during the period. 

 

When calculating diluted income(loss) income per share, if the effects are dilutive, companies are required to add back to net income the effects of the change in derivative liabilities related to warrants. Additionally, if the effects of the change in derivative liabilities are added back to net income, companies are required to include the warrants outstanding related to the derivative liability in the calculation of the weighted average dilutive shares.

Significant Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Sales to our top three customers aggregated to approximately 22%43% and 24%22% of total sales for the three months ended September 30, 20222023 and 2021, 2022,respectively and 23%29% and 28%23% of total sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, respectively.respectively. Sales to one of those customers were approximately 9%21% and 13%9% of total sales for the three months ended September 30, 20222023 and 2021,2022, respectively, and 12% and 9% and 12% of total sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, respectively. Accounts receivable from these three customers were approximately 34%18% and 17%28% of total accounts receivable as of September 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, respectively.


A single customer represents 1%3% and 2%2% of total accounts receivable as of September 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, respectively. This customer is a related party through a director who sits on both the Company’s board of directors and that of the customer.


Revenue Recognition


           The Company recognizes revenue based on a five-step model in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC")ASC 606. For our customer contracts,contracts: (i) we identify the contract with a customer,customer; (ii) we identify the performance obligations in the contract,contract; (iii) we determine the transaction price,price; (iv) we allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation; and (v) we recognize revenue when we satisfy the performance obligation. Our revenues are recorded at a point in time when the performance is fulfilled, which is when the product is shipped to or received by the customer.


Product sales are recorded net of variable considerations, such as provisions for returns, discounts, and allowances. 


We account for shipping and handling costs as costs to fulfill a contract and not as performance obligations to our customers. Shipping and handling costs are recorded in cost of sales. 


8



Leases

 

The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842. The Company reviews all contracts and determines if the arrangement is or contains a lease, at inception. Operating leases are included in right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current lease liabilities and long-term lease liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not have any finance leases. 

 

Operating lease ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any upfront lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees.



Discontinued operations

New We report financial results for discontinued operations separately from continuing operations to distinguish the financial impact of disposal transactions from ongoing operations. Discontinued operations reporting occurs only when the disposal meets the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation in accordance with ASC Subtopic 205-20, Discontinued Operations (“ASC 205-20”). In our consolidated statements of cash flows, the cash flow from discontinued operations are separately classified/reported. Unless indicated otherwise, the information in the Notes to the consolidated financial statements relate to continuing operations (See Note 9, Discontinued Operations)


Accounting Pronouncements - Not Yet Adopted

 

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU"(“ASU) 2016-13,2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit losses (Topic 326)326): Measurement of Credit losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-132016-13 requires an organization to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Our status as a smaller reporting company allows us to deferWe adopted this standard prospectively on the first day of our 2023 fiscal year. The adoption until the annual period, including interim periods within the annual period, beginning January 1, 2023. Management is currently evaluating the requirements of this guidance and hasstandard did not yet determined thehave a material impact of the adoption on the Company'sour consolidated financial position or results of operations.statements.  


In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance to companies to ease the potential burden associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions to apply GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to certain criteria, that reference London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. Companies can adopt ASU 2020-04 immediately; however,We adopted this standard prospectively on December 14, 2022, on one of our term loan notes and agreements which was amended on this date to transition from LIBOR to the guidance will only be available through December 31, 2022. While we are continuing to evaluate the impactsecured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”). The adoption of this ASUstandard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations, we do not expect its impact will be material at this time.statements.

The Company performed evaluations of its contracts and determined each of its identified leases are operating leases.

Overview 

 

We are an integrated formulator, marketer, distributor, and retailer of branded nutritional supplements and other natural products sold to and through domestic health and natural food stores, mass market retailers, specialty retailers, on-line retailers, and websites. Internationally, we market and distribute branded nutritional supplements and other natural products to and through health and natural product distributors and retailers.

 

Our products include vitamins, minerals, specialty supplements, and sports nutrition products primarily under the Twinlab®, Reserveage and ResVitale® brands. We also formulate, market and sell diet and energy products under the Metabolife® brand, and a full line of herbal teas under the Alvita® brand. To accommodate consumer preferences, our products come in various formulations and delivery forms, including capsules, tablets, softgels, chewables, liquids, sprays, powders, and whole herbs. These products are sold primarily through health and natural food stores and on-line retailers, supermarkets, and mass-market retailers.

 

We distribute one of the broadest branded product lines in the industry with approximately 26070 stock keeping units, or SKUs. We believe that as a result of our emphasis on innovation, quality, loyalty, education and customer service, our brands are widely recognized in health and natural food stores and among their customers. In most periods since our formation, we have generated losses from operations.

 

We also performperformed services between private label distributors and contract manufacturers under the NutraScience Labs ("NSL"(NSL) brand name. NSL facilitatesfacilitated the production of new supplements to market and reformulatesreformulated existing products to include scientifically-backed ingredients. We provideprovided our customers with numerous production services, including manufacturing, testing, label and packaging design, order fulfillment, and regulatory compliance.

 

NSL facilitatesfacilitated the contract manufacture of a variety of high-quality vitamin and supplement products, including but not limited to, immune support supplements, cognitive support products, prebiotics and probiotics, supplements for weight management, and sports nutrition supplements. Our role in the production of these products iswas to help our customers manufacture or reformulate dietary supplements for sale and distribution. We dodid this by working with contract manufacturers to build scientifically backed formulas for resale to our end customers. We also simplifysimplified the production process by providing quality control checks, storing inventory on site, labeling and designing finished products, and drop shipping finished products ready for sale to our end customers. We dodid not market these private label products, but rather sellsold the products to the customer, who iswas then responsible for the marketing, distribution, and sale to retailers or to their end customers. The services performed under NSL ceased with the abandonment of operations that began in July 2023.

Going Concern Uncertainty

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business. In most periods since our formation, we have generated losses from operations. At September 30, 2022,2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $353.1$368.6 million. Historical losses are primarily attributable to lower than planned sales resulting from low fill rates on demand due to limitations of our working capital, delayed product introductions and postponed marketing activities, merger-related and other restructuring costs, interest and refinancing charges associated with our debt refinancing, and impairment of goodwill and intangible assets. Losses have been funded primarily through issuance of common stock and third-party or related party debt.

 

Because of our history of operating losses and significant interest expense on our debt, we have a working capital deficiency of $124.0$138.5 million at September 30, 2022.2023. We also have $100.0$95.3 million of debt, presented in current liabilities. These continuing conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Management has addressed operating issues through the following actions: focusing on growing the core business and brands; continuing emphasis on major customers and key products; reducing manufacturing and operating costs and continuing to negotiate lower prices from major suppliers. We believe that we maywill need to raise additional capital to execute our business plan. If additional funding is required, therethrough debt, equity or the sale of assets during the current year. There can be no assurance that sources of funding will be available when needed on acceptable terms or at all. If we cannot obtain additional funding when required, the Company may sell certain assets, enter into collaborations, strategic alliances, merger and acquisition activities, and licensing agreements, negotiate with its principal lenders, wind-up operations of other subsidiaries, or file for bankruptcy protection.

  

The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

As set forth above, we obtained additional debt financing in the year ended December 31, 20212022 and thenine months ended September 30, 20222023 to support operations. It is possible that we mayWe will need additional funding from our revolving credit facility to enablecontinue supporting our operations during the next twelve months. However, we cannot predict whether future borrowings will be available to us to fundunder our operating expensescredit facility and capital expenditure requirements.future developments associated with the current economic environment will materially affect our long-term liquidity position.

 

In response to COVID-19 and to protect our liquidity and cash position, we have taken a number of steps. In August of 2020, we obtained deferment letters from each of Great Harbor Capital, LLC, Little Harbor, LLC, and Golisano Holdings LLC, pursuant to which each lender agreed to defer all payments due under outstanding notes held by each lender through October 22, 2021 and agreed to refrain from declaring a default and/or exercising any remedies under the outstanding notes. Amendments to extend the maturity date and related payment deferrals of the aforementioned notes have not been executed and these notes are currently in default. We anticipate extending the maturity dates and related payment deferrals with the lending parties,lenders, but we cannot guarantee that such extensions and payment deferrals will be successfully obtained on a timely basis or at all.


On May 7, 2020, TCC received the proceeds of a loan from Fifth Third Bank in the amount of $1.7 million obtained under the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), which was enacted March 27, 2020 (the “PPP Loan”).The PPP Loan, evidenced by a promissory note dated May 5, 2020 (the “PPP Note”), had a two-year term and bore interest at a rate of 1.0% per annum, with the monthly principal and interest payments that were due beginning December 1, 2020. TCC used the proceeds of the PPP Loan for payroll, office rent, and utilities which allowed the Company to seek forgiveness of this loan. The Company submitted its application for 100% forgiveness for this loan in November 2021. In January 2022, the full amount of the PPP Loan was forgiven by the Small Business Administration ("SBA"). As a result, the Company recorded a gain on the forgiveness of the loan in the amount of $1.7 million


On January 25, 2021, TCC applied for another PPP loan with Fifth Third Bank in the amount of $1.3 million (the "Second PPP Loan”). The Second PPP Loan, evidenced by a promissory note dated February 5, 2021 (the "Second PPP Note”), had a two-year term and bore interest at a rate of 1.0% per annum, with expected monthly principal and interest payments that were due to begin September 1, 2021. TCC used the proceeds of the Second PPP Loan for payroll, which allowed the Company to seek forgiveness for this loan. The Company submitted its application for 100% forgiveness for this loan in November 2021. In December 2021, the full amount of the Second PPP Loan was forgiven by the SBA. As a result, the Company recorded a gain on the forgiveness of the loan in the amount of $1.3 million. 

Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial product revenues, we intend to finance our cash needs through a combination of equity offerings, debt financing, collaborations, strategic alliances, sales of assets, other merger and acquisition activities, and licensing arrangements. There can be no assurance that any of those sources of funding will be available when needed on acceptable terms or at all. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interests of existing stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of existing stockholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise funds through collaborations, strategic alliances, sales of assets, other merger and acquisition activities, or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financing or relationships with third parties when needed or on acceptable terms, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development or future commercialization efforts; abandon our business strategy of growth through acquisitions; or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our principalinterim chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 20222023 pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"Exchange Act), as amended. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. On the basis of this review, our management, including our principalinterim chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to give reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and chiefprincipal financial officer, in a manner that allows timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

On May 14, 2021, theThe Company announced that an internal investigation discovered that a recently terminated employee in the Company’s accounting department had been embezzling Company funds. The investigation indicated losses of approximately $500,000 occurred between 2016 and 2021. As a result of the findings of the investigation, the terminated employee returned the majority of the embezzled funds to the Company.

The employee took advantage of a complex consolidation process between multiple Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") systems,has a lack of segregation of duties, weakappropriate staffing in our accounting and information technology departments to address the Company’s ability to continue to close the books both timely and accurately and to meet internal controls, and acontrol processes. The Company’s ability to address this material weakness is limited due to the lack of managerial oversight.financing.

In the first quarter of 2021, the Company transitioned into a single ERP system which allows for establishment of increased segregation of duties and improvements of internal controls within the ERP system itself. Additionally, remediation of internal control weaknesses includes additional focus on managerial oversight and staffing changes within the accounting department.

 

Although we have implemented certain measures that we believe willthe Company is working to remediate thesethis material weaknesses, we can provide no assurance that our remediation efforts will be effective or that additional material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting willweakness, it currently has not be identified in the future.been resolved. Any failure to maintain or implement required new or improved controls, or any difficulties that may be encountered in their implementation, could result in additional material weaknesses, cause us to fail to meet our periodic or annual reporting obligations or result in material misstatements in our financial statements. Any such failure could also adversely affect the results of periodic management evaluations regarding the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules promulgated thereunder. The existence of material weaknesses could result in errors in our financial statements that could result in a restatement of those financial statements.


Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

The effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, is subject to inherent limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, operating, and evaluating the controls and procedures, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. Accordingly, any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute assurances. In addition, 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. We intend to continue to monitor and upgrade our internal controls as necessary or appropriate for our business, but we cannot assure you that such improvements will be sufficient to provide us with effective internal control over financial reporting. 


Remediation in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

ThereTo address the material weakness related to appropriate staffing, the Company made efforts to hire, train and retain appropriate staff in the accounting, finance and information technology departments including technical accountants to support and alleviate the workload on the current team. The additional staff should help to proactively identify and account for transactions of a complex or non-routine nature, identify and reduce inefficiencies, and better identify weaknesses in internal controls. Furthermore, the additional staffing should be responsible for managing the day-to-day responsibilities of Sarbanes Oxley compliance, including enhanced documentation of process and general controls. However, the Company has not yet been able to complete all of the training and additional staffing may still be required.


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except as discussed above, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 20222023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
