Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies Litigation, Claims and Assessments From time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm its business. Licensing and Royalty Agreements On March 1, 2010, the Company was assigned a Development and License agreement, dated January 1, 2009, with Daniel Dougherty (the “License Agreement”). Under the terms of the License Agreement, the royalty rate payable by the Company is 6% of net sales up to $500 thousand of net sales (as defined in the agreement) for each year under the License Agreement; 4% of net sales from $500 thousand up to $2.5 million of net sales for each year under the License Agreement; 2% of net sales from $2.5 million up to $20 million of net sales for each year under the License Agreement; and 1% of net sales in excess of $20 million of net sales for each year under the License Agreement. In order to continue exclusivity, the Company must pay a minimum royalty of $125 thousand each year. The Company incurred approximately $300 thousand of royalty expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2026, compared to $357 thousand for the three months ended April 30, 2025. Royalty expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Purchase Commitments In January 2026 the Company entered into one year purchase commitments to buy between approximately 14.5 million and approximately 16.6 million pounds of chicken, to be delivered in equal weekly installments at agreed-upon pricing formulas.
