Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Organization, Basis of Presentation, and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Organization, Basis of Presentation, and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Organization Lifecore Biomedical, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Lifecore Biomedical” or the “Company”, previously Landec Corporation) design, develop, manufacture, and sell differentiated products for biomaterials markets, and license technology applications to partners. Lifecore Biomedical’s biomedical company, Lifecore Biomedical Operating Company, Inc. (“Lifecore”), is a fully integrated contract development and manufacturing organization (“CDMO”) that offers highly differentiated capabilities in the development, fill and finish of sterile, injectable-grade pharmaceutical products in syringes and vials. As a leading manufacturer of premium, injectable grade sodium hyaluronic (“HA”), Lifecore brings over 40 years of expertise as a partner for global and emerging biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies across multiple therapeutic categories to bring their innovations to market. Lifecore recognizes revenue in two different product categories, CDMO and fermentation. Lifecore Biomedical previously operated a natural food company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Curation Foods, Inc. (“Curation Foods”), which was previously focused on the distribution of plant-based foods to retail, club and foodservice channels throughout North America. However, upon the sale of Yucatan on February 7, 2023 (see “Yucatan Disposition and Discontinued Operations” below) and O Olive Oil & Vinegar (“O Olive”) on April 6, 2023 (refer to Note 11), the Company has ceased to operate the Curation Foods business. On November 14, 2022, the Company filed an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to change the Company’s name from Landec Corporation to Lifecore Biomedical, Inc. (the “Name Change”), which was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company and became effective on November 14, 2022. In connection with the Name Change, the Company’s Common Stock began trading under its new NASDAQ ticker symbol, “LFCR”, on November 15, 2022. References to “Landec” or “Landec Corporation” refer to operations and/or transactions of the Company prior to the Name Change. Discontinued Operations - O Olive Sale, Yucatan Disposition, BreatheWay Disposition and Eat Smart Disposition On April 6, 2023, the Company completed the sale of its O Olive Oil and Vinegar Business (“O Olive Sale”) for an aggregate sale price of $6.4 million, subject to certain customary post-closing adjustments, consisting of approximately $3.3 million in cash and a $3.1 million seller’s note. The seller’s note matures on March 31, 2026, accrues interest at a rate of 12% payable in kind beginning on October 31, 2023, and is prepayable by the buyer at any time. Net proceeds from the transaction, $1.7 million, were used to repay borrowings under the Company’s credit facilities. The Company recognized a loss on the O Olive Sale amounting to $0.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year ended May 28, 2023, which is recorded in loss from discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. On September 28, 2023, December 11, 2023 and February 22, 2024, the Company received cash payments of $2.4 million, $0.3 million, and $18.0 thousand, respectively, toward the $3.1 million seller’s note. On February 7, 2023 (the “Yucatan Closing Date”), Company, Camden Fruit Corp., a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Curation Foods and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Camden” and together with the Curation Foods and the Company, the “Yucatan Sellers”), Yucatan Foods, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Camden (“Yucatan”), and Yucatan Acquisition Holdings LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Flagship Food Group LLC (“Buyer” and together with Yucatan and the Sellers, the “Parties”) completed the sale (the “Yucatan Disposition”) of the Company’s avocado products business, including its Yucatan® and Cabo Fresh® brands, as well as the associated manufacturing facility and operations in Guanajuato, Mexico (the “Business”), pursuant to the terms of a securities purchase agreement executed by the Parties on February 7, 2023 (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, Buyer acquired all of the outstanding equity securities of Yucatan for a purchase price of $17.5 million in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments at closing, including selling costs, net working capital and other adjustments amounting to $5.0 million. The Company recognized a loss on the Yucatan Disposition of $20.7 million in the third quarter ended February 26, 2023. The loss on the Yucatan Disposition is recorded in loss from discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. On June 2, 2022, the Company and Curation Foods entered into and closed an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “BreatheWay Purchase Agreement”) with Hazel Technologies, Inc. (the “BreatheWay Purchaser”), pursuant to which Curation Foods sold all of its assets related to BreatheWay packaging technology business to the BreatheWay Purchaser in exchange for an aggregate purchase price of $3.2 million (the “BreatheWay Disposition”). The BreatheWay Purchase Agreement included various representations, warranties and covenants of the parties generally customary for a transaction of this nature. Upon the sale, the Company received net proceeds of $3.1 million and recorded a gain of $2.1 million. On December 13, 2021, the Company and Curation Foods (together, the “Eat Smart Sellers”), and Taylor Farms Retail, Inc. (“Taylor Farms” and together with the Eat Smart Sellers, the “Parties”) completed the sale (the “Eat Smart Disposition”) of Curation Foods’ Eat Smart business, including its salad and cut vegetable businesses (the “Eat Smart Business”), pursuant to the terms of an asset purchase agreement executed by the Parties on December 13, 2021 (the “Eat Smart Asset Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Eat Smart Asset Purchase Agreement, Taylor Farms acquired the Business for a purchase price of $73.5 million in cash, subject to post-closing adjustments based upon net working capital at closing. As part of the Eat Smart Disposition, Taylor Farms acquired, among other assets related to the Business, the manufacturing facility and warehouses (and corresponding equipment) located in Bowling Green, Ohio and Guadalupe, California, as well as inventory, accounts receivable and accounts payable, intellectual property and information related to the Business, and assumed certain liabilities and executory obligations under the Company’s and Curation Foods’ outstanding contracts related to the Business, in each case, subject to the terms of the Eat Smart Asset Purchase Agreement. Upon the sale, the Company received net proceeds of $73.5 million and recorded a loss of $0.3 million, which is recorded in loss from discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The accounting requirements for reporting the Eat Smart, Yucatan and O Olive businesses as discontinued operations were met when the Eat Smart Disposition, Yucatan Disposition and O Olive Sale were completed on each respective closing date. The BreatheWay disposition did not meet the requirements for reporting the businesses as discontinued operations. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements reflect the results of the Eat Smart, Yucatan and O Olive businesses as a discontinued operation for the periods presented. Refer to Note 11 - Discontinued Operations. In connection with the sale of the Eat Smart, Yucatan and O Olive businesses, the Company has entered into Transition Services Agreements with each respective buyer to provide for a customary and orderly transition of the business, and such fees earned, and costs incurred for such transition services shall be included in continuing operations in subsequent periods. In fiscal year 2022, the Company earned $5.8 million of transition services income related to transition services provided to Taylor Farms related to the Eat Smart Disposition which is meant to defray costs incurred to provide the transition services which are reported within Selling, general and administrative costs. In fiscal year 2023, the Company earned similar transition services income of $0.3 million related to the Yucatan and O Olive dispositions. Securities Purchase Agreement On November 25, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Wynnefield Purchase Agreement”) with entities affiliated with Wynnefield Capital, Inc. (the “Purchasers”). Pursuant to the Wynnefield Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell an aggregate of 627,746 shares of its Common Stock (the “Shares”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $5.0 million (the “Offering”). The purchase price for each Share was $7.97. The Offering closed on November 25, 2022. Pursuant to the Wynnefield Purchase Agreement, the Company granted the Purchasers certain piggyback registration rights and agreed, among other things, to indemnify such parties under any registration statement filed that includes the Shares from certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities. Series A Convertible Preferred Share Purchase Agreement On January 9, 2023, the Company simultaneously signed and closed a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Preferred Share Purchase Agreement”) with a group of certain accredited investors. Refer to Note 2 – Convertible Preferred Stock for additional information. Refinancing Transactions On May 22, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to its Revolving Credit Facility (defined below) and entered into the New Term Loan Credit Facility. The New Term Loan Credit Facility refinanced in full all obligations of the Borrowers and their subsidiaries under the Prior Term Loan Credit Facility, which was terminated upon the entry into the New Term Loan Credit Facility and all noncompliance with debt covenants was thereby cured. Refer to Note 6 – Debt. The Company incurred debt origination costs related to the refinancing transactions and amortizes these costs over the life of the related debt using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method. The unamortized portion of debt origination costs is recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as an offset to its related debt. Amortization of debt origination costs is included as a component of interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations. Basis of Presentation and Consolidation The consolidated financial statements are presented on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of Lifecore Biomedical and its subsidiaries, Curation Foods and Lifecore. All material inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated. The Company’s fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period that ends on the last Sunday of May with quarters within each year ending on the last Sunday of August, November, and February; however, in instances where the last Sunday would result in a quarter being 12-weeks in length, the Company’s policy is to extend that quarter to the following Sunday. A 14th week is included in the fiscal year every five or six years to realign the Company’s fiscal quarters with calendar quarters. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The accounting estimates that require management’s most significant and subjective judgments include revenue recognition; loss contingencies; sales returns and credit losses; recognition and measurement of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities; the assessment of recoverability of long-lived and indefinite lived assets (including intangible assets and goodwill), and inventory; and the valuation and recognition of stock-based compensation; and the valuation of debt derivative liability. These estimates involve the consideration of complex factors and require management to make judgments. The analysis of historical and future trends can require extended periods of time to resolve and are subject to change from period to period. The actual results may differ from management’s estimates. Concentrations of Risk Cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable are financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk. Our Company policy limits, among other things, the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer and to any one type of investment, other than securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of customers and, as a consequence, believes that trade receivables credit risk exposure is limited. Credit losses for bad debt are provided for in the consolidated financial statements through a charge to operations. A valuation allowance is provided for known and anticipated credit losses. The recorded amounts for these financial instruments approximate their fair value. Several of the raw materials the Company uses to manufacture its products are currently purchased from a single source, including raw materials for its HA products. During the fiscal year ended May 28, 2023, the Company had sales concentrations of 10% or greater from two customers (for fiscal years ended May 29, 2022 and May 30, 2021, three customers had sales concentrations of 10% or greater), accounting for 39% and 18%; 26%, 22% and 14%; and 32%, 23% and 12%, respectively. Two of the Company’s same customers had accounts receivable concentrations of 10% or greater, accounting for 31% and 18% of accounts receivable as of May 28, 2023, and 33% and 16%, as of May 29, 2022. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the net undiscounted future cash flow expected to be generated from the asset. If the future undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the carrying value of the assets, the assets’ carrying value is adjusted to fair value. The Company regularly evaluates its long-lived assets for indicators of possible impairment. Financial Instruments The Company’s financial instruments are primarily composed of commercial-term trade payables, debt instruments, and derivative instruments. For short-term instruments, the historical carrying amount approximates the fair value of the instrument. The fair value of long-term debt and line of credit approximates their carrying value. Cash Flow Hedges The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage interest rate risk. These derivative instruments may offset a portion of the changes in interest expense. The Company designates these derivative instruments as cash flow hedges. The Company accounts for its derivative instruments as either an asset or a liability and carries them at fair value in Other assets or Other non-current liabilities. The accounting for changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument depends on the intended use of the derivative instrument and the resulting designation. For derivative instruments that hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows and are designated as cash flow hedges, the entire change in the fair value of the hedging instrument is recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”) in Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit). Those amounts are subsequently reclassified to earnings in the same line item in the Consolidated Statement of Operations as impacted when the hedged item affects earnings. To receive hedge accounting treatment, cash flow hedges must be highly effective in offsetting changes to expected future cash flows on hedged transactions. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2021, the Company discontinued its hedge accounting prospectively since it was determined that the derivatives are no longer highly effective in offsetting changes in the net investment. The derivatives continue to be carried at fair value in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets with changes in their fair values from the date of discontinued hedge accounting recognized in current period earnings in other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Amounts previously accumulated in AOCL during the period of effectiveness will continue to be realized over the remaining term of the underlying forecasted debt payments as a component of AOCL in Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit). Derivative Financial Instruments The Company accounts for put and call options embedded in the term debt in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. ASC Topic 815 generally requires companies to bifurcate put and call options embedded in the New Term Loan Credit Facility (as defined in Note 6) from their host instruments and to account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. In circumstances where the host instrument contains more than one embedded derivative instrument that is required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as separate derivative instruments. The fair value of the embedded features are accounted for as a derivative liability in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and adjusted to fair value each reporting period. The change in fair value of derivatives is recorded as a component of other income (expense) in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss Comprehensive income consists of two components, Net loss and Other comprehensive (loss) income (“OCI”). OCI refers to revenue, expenses, and gains and losses that under GAAP are recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity but are excluded from net loss. The Company’s OCI consists of net deferred gains and losses on its interest rate swap derivative instruments. The components of AOCL, net of tax, are as follows (in thousands):
| AOCL
Balance as of May 31, 2020 | $ | (2,808) |
Other comprehensive income before reclassifications, net of tax effect | (344) |
Amounts reclassified from OCI | 1,794 |
Other comprehensive income, net | 1,450 |
Balance as of May 30, 2021 | (1,358) |
Amounts reclassified from OCI | 772 |
Other comprehensive income, net | 772 |

Amounts reclassified from OCI | 586 |
Other comprehensive income, net | 586 |
Balance as of May 28, 2023 | $ | — |
Based on these assumptions, management believes the fair market values of the Company’s financial instruments are not significantly different from their recorded amounts as of May 28, 2023 and May 29, 2022. Accounts Receivable, Sales Returns and Allowance for Credit Losses The Company carries its accounts receivable at their face amounts less an allowance for estimated sales returns and credit losses. Sales return allowances are estimated based on historical sales return amounts. The Company uses the loss rate method to estimate its expected credit losses on trade accounts receivable and contract assets. In order to estimate expected credit losses, the Company assessed recent historical experience, current economic conditions and any reasonable and supportable forecast to identify risk characteristics that are shared within the financial asset. These risk characteristics are then used to bifurcate the loss rate method into risk pools. The risk pools were determined based on the industries in which the Company operates. Historical credit loss for each risk pool is then applied to the current period aging as presented in the identified risk pool to determine the needed reserve allowance. At times when there are no current economic conditions or forecasts that may affect future credit losses, the Company has determined that recent historical experience provides the best basis for estimating credit losses. The information obtained from assessing historical experience, current economic conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts were used to identify risk characteristics that can affect future credit loss experience. There were no significant risk characteristics identified in the review of historical experiences or in the review of estimates of current economic conditions and forecasts. Estimating credit losses based on risk characteristics requires significant judgment by management. Significant judgments include, but are not limited to: assessing current economic conditions and the extent to which they are relevant to the existing characteristics of the Company’s financial assets, the estimated life of financial assets, and the level of reliance on historical experience in light of economic conditions. The Company will continually review and update, when necessary, its historical risk characteristics that are meaningful to estimating credit losses, any new risk characteristics that arise in the natural course of business, and the estimated life of its financial assets. The changes in the allowance for credit losses related to accounts receivable are as follows (in thousands):

Contract Assets and Liabilities Contract assets primarily relate to the Company’s conditional right to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date. The Company’s contract assets as of May 28, 2023, and May 29, 2022, were $3.2 million and $10.4 million, respectively, and are included within accounts receivable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract liabilities primarily relate to payments received from customers in advance of performance under the contract. The Company’s contract liabilities as of May 28, 2023, and May 29, 2022, were $7.0 million and $0.9 million, respectively, of which $4.1 million and $0.9 million is included in deferred revenue and $2.9 million and $0.0 million is included in other non-current liabilities as of May 28, 2023 and May 29, 2022, respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Revenue recognized during the fiscal year ended May 28, 2023 that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of fiscal year 2023, was $0.6 million. Revenue Recognition The Company follows the five step, principles-based model to recognize revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers and in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue, net of estimated allowances and returns, is recognized when or as the Company satisfies its performance obligations under a contract and control of the product is transferred to the customer. Lifecore generates revenue from two integrated activities: CDMO and Fermentation. CDMO is comprised of aseptic and development services. Lifecore’s standard terms of sale are generally included in its contracts and purchase orders. Shipping and other transportation costs charged to customers are recorded in both revenue and cost of goods sold. Lifecore has elected to account for shipping and handling as fulfillment activities, and not as a separate performance obligation. Lifecore’s standard payment terms with its customers generally range from 30 days to 60 days. Aseptic Lifecore provides aseptic formulation and filling of syringes and vials with precisely formulated medical grade HA and non-HA materials for injectable products used for medical purposes. In instances where our customers contract with us to aseptically fill syringes or vials with our HA, the goods are not distinct in the context of the contract. Lifecore recognizes revenue for these products at the point in time when legal title to the product is transferred to the customer, which is at the time that shipment is made or upon delivery of the product. Development Services Lifecore provides product development services to assist its customers in obtaining regulatory approval for the commercial sale of their drug product. These services include activities such as technology development, material component changes, analytical method development, formulation development, pilot studies, stability studies, process validation and production of materials for use within clinical studies. The Company’s customers benefit from the expertise of its scientists who have extensive experience performing such tasks. Each of the promised goods and services are not distinct in the context of the contract as the goods and services are highly interdependent and interrelated. The services described above are significantly affected by each other because Lifecore would not be able to fulfill its promise by transferring each of the goods or services independently. Revenues generated from development services arrangements are recognized over time as Lifecore is creating an asset without an alternate use as it is unique to the customer. Furthermore, the Company has an enforceable right to payment for the performance completed to date for its costs incurred in satisfying the performance obligation plus a reasonable profit margin. For each of the development activities performed by Lifecore as described above, labor is the primary input (i.e., labor costs represent the majority of the costs incurred in the completion of the services). The Company determined that labor hours are the best measure of progress as it most accurately depicts the effort extended to satisfy the performance obligation over time and therefore recognizes development services revenue over time based on the proportion of labor hours incurred compared to total estimated hours for an individual arrangement. Fermentation Lifecore manufactures and sells pharmaceutical-grade sodium hyaluronate (“HA”) in bulk form to its customers. The HA produced is distinct as customers are able to utilize the product provided under HA supply contracts when they obtain control. Lifecore recognizes revenue for these products at the point in time when legal title to the product is transferred to the customer, which is at the time that shipment is made or upon delivery of the product to our customer. During the fourth fiscal quarter, the Company entered into a bill-and-hold arrangement with a customer under which $3.2 million of product sales were recognized in the year ended May 28, 2023. Revenue for bill-and-hold arrangements is recognized when control transfers to the customer, even though the customer does not have physical possession of the goods. Control transfers when the bill-and-hold arrangement has been determined to have substantive reason, the product is identified as belonging to the customer, the product is ready for physical transfer to the customer and the product cannot be used or directed to another customer. The Company disaggregates its revenue based on how it markets its products and services and reviews results of operations. The following tables disaggregates revenue by major product lines and services (in thousands):

Development services revenues recognized over time were $28.6 million, $35.8 million and $28.2 million for the years ended May 28, 2023, May 29, 2022 and May 30, 2021, respectively, and are included in contract development and manufacturing organization. Revenues recognized at a point in time were $74.6 million, $73.6 million and $70.3 million for the years ended May 28, 2023, May 29, 2022 and May 30, 2021, respectively. Operations of Eat Smart, Yucatan and O Olive, have been reclassified to discontinued operations for all periods presented. Shipping and Handling Costs Amounts billed to third-party customers for shipping and handling are included as a component of revenues. Shipping and handling costs incurred are included as a component of cost of products sold and represent costs incurred to ship products from the processing facility or distribution center to the end consumer markets. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company records all highly liquid securities with three months or less from date of purchase to maturity as cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist mainly of money market funds. The market value of cash equivalents approximates their historical cost given their short-term nature. Reconciliation of Cash and Cash Equivalents and Cash as presented on the Statements of Cash Flows The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents reported within the Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (in thousands):

Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. As of May 28, 2023 and May 29, 2022, inventories consisted of the following (in thousands):
| Year Ended

Work in progress | 10,349 |  |  | 7,115 |
Total inventories | $ | 40,841 |  |  | $ | 36,000 |
If the cost of the inventories exceeds their net realizable value, provisions are recorded currently to reduce them to net realizable value. The Company also records a provision for slow moving and obsolete inventories based on the estimate of demand for its products. The Company recorded adjustments of $4.9 million and $4.6 million to record inventory to its net realizable value as of May 28, 2023 and May 29, 2022, respectively. The amounts reflected in costs of goods sold to record inventory to its net realizable value were expense of $0.3 million and expense of $3.5 million for fiscal years 2023 and 2022, respectively. Advertising Expense Advertising expenditures for the Company are expensed as incurred and included in selling, general, and administrative in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. Advertising expenses for the Company for fiscal years 2023, 2022 and 2021 was $5.1 thousand, $5.6 thousand and $0.1 thousand, respectively. Related Party Transactions During the years ended May 28, 2023, May 29, 2022 and May 30, 2021, the Company had sales to Alcon Research, LLC (“Alcon”), a related party, of $40.2 million, $29.4 million and $31.9 million, respectively. The Company had accounts receivable outstanding of $9.1 million and $6.3 million at May 28, 2023 and May 29, 2022, respectively. Securities Purchase Agreement On November 25, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Wynnefield Purchase Agreement”) with entities affiliated with Wynnefield Capital, Inc. and controlled by the Company’s director, Nelson Obus (the “Purchasers”). Pursuant to the Wynnefield Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell an aggregate of 627,746 shares of its Common Stock (the “Shares”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $5.0 million (the “Offering”). The purchase price for each Share was $7.97. The Offering closed on November 25, 2022. Pursuant to the Wynnefield Purchase Agreement, the Company granted the Purchasers certain piggyback registration rights and agreed, among other things, to indemnify such parties under any registration statement filed that includes the Shares from certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities. Series A Convertible Preferred Share Purchase Agreement On January 9, 2023, the Company simultaneously signed and closed the Preferred Share Purchase Agreement with a group of qualified investors (the “Purchasers”), including, among others, entities controlled by the Company’s directors Christopher Kiper and Nelson Obus. Pursuant to the Preferred Share Purchase Agreement, the Company issued and sold an aggregate of 38,750 shares of a new series of convertible preferred stock of the Company designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Shares, par value $0.001 per share (the “Convertible Preferred Stock”) for aggregate proceeds of $38.8 million. Each share of Convertible Preferred Stock has the powers, designations, preferences and other rights as are set forth in the Certificate of Designations of the Series A Preferred Stock filed by the Company with the Delaware Secretary of State on January 9, 2023 (the “Certificate of Designations”). The Convertible Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company’s Common Stock with respect to dividends, distributions, and payments on liquidation, winding up and dissolution. Upon a liquidation, dissolution, winding up or change of control of the Company, each share of Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive an amount per share of Convertible Preferred Stock equal to the greater of (i) the purchase price paid by the Purchaser, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends (the “Liquidation Preference”) and (ii) the amount that the holder of Convertible Preferred Stock (each, a “Holder” and collectively, the “Holders”) would have been entitled to receive at such time if the Convertible Preferred Stock had been converted into Common Stock immediately prior to such liquidation event. The Holders will be entitled to dividends on the Liquidation Preference at the rate of 7.5% per annum, payable in-kind (“PIK”). The Company may, at its option, pay such dividends in cash from and after the earlier of June 29, 2026, or the termination or waiver of the restriction on cash dividends and/or redemptions that is set forth in the Credit Agreements (as defined in the Certificate of Designations) (such earlier date, the “Applicable Date”). The Holders are also entitled to participate in dividends declared or paid on the Common Stock on an as-converted basis. Upon certain bankruptcy events, the Company is required to pay to each Holder an amount in cash equal to the Liquidation Preference being redeemed. From and after the Applicable Date, each Holder shall have the right to require the Company to redeem all or any part of the Holder’s Convertible Preferred Stock for an amount equal to the Liquidation Preference. Each Holder of Convertible Preferred Stock has the right, at its option, to convert its Convertible Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, into fully paid and non-assessable shares of our Common Stock at an initial conversion price equal to $7.00 per share. The conversion price is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, including in the event of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar events, and is also subject to adjustment in the event of subsequent offerings of Common Stock or convertible securities by the Company for less than the conversion price. Subject to certain conditions, the Company may from time to time, at its option, require conversion of all or any portion of the outstanding shares of Convertible Preferred Stock to Common Stock if, for at least 20 consecutive trading days during the respective measuring period the closing price of the Common Stock was at least 150% of the conversion price. The Company may not exercise its right to mandatorily convert outstanding shares of Convertible Preferred Stock unless certain liquidity conditions with regard to the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such conversion are satisfied. The Holders are entitled to vote with the holders of the shares of Common Stock on all matters submitted for a vote of holders of shares of Common Stock (voting together with the holders of shares of Common Stock as one class) on an as-converted basis, subject to certain limitations. Additionally, for so long as 30% of the outstanding Convertible Preferred Stock remains outstanding, certain matters will require the approval of the majority of the outstanding Convertible Preferred Stock, voting as a separate class, including (i) amending, altering or repealing any provision of the Certificate of Designations; (ii) amending, altering or repealing any provision of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, in each case, in a manner that adversely affects the powers, preferences or rights of the Convertible Preferred Stock; (iii) increasing or decreasing the authorized number of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock (except to provide for the issuance of PIK dividends); (iv) creating (including by reclassification), issuing shares of or increasing the authorized number of shares of any additional class or series of capital stock of the Company unless such class or series rank junior to the Convertible Preferred Stock and are issued at fair market value; (v) purchasing or redeeming or paying, declaring or setting aside any fund for, any dividend or distribution on, any Common Stock or other Junior Stock (as defined in the Certificate of Designations), other than purchases of equity securities of the Company upon the termination of an employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries in accordance with the terms of such employee’s employment agreement or any equity incentive or similar plan approved by the Board; or (vi) creating, incurring, granting, entering into, permitting, assuming or allowing, directly or indirectly, (a) any indebtedness by the Company (or any of its subsidiaries), excluding equity securities and non-convertible preferred stock (but including convertible debt), at any time when, or as a result of which, the principal amount of the Company’s total outstanding and available indebtedness exceeds $175,000,000, or (b) any lien, charge or other encumbrance on all or substantially all of the Company’s (or any of its subsidiaries’) properties or assets. Immediately following the closing of the Preferred Share Repurchase Agreement, two Series A Convertible Preferred Stock directors, Nathaniel Calloway and Christopher Kiper, were appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors. Alcon Supply Agreement On May 3, 2023, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Supply Agreement (the “Supply Agreement”), dated May 3, 2023, with Alcon, which amended and restated certain existing supply agreements entered into between the Company and Alcon-Couvreur N.V., an affiliate of Alcon, related to the Company’s manufacture and supply of sodium hyaluronate (“HA”) for Alcon. The initial term of the Supply Agreement expires December 31, 2033. Following the initial term, the Supply Agreement automatically extends for an additional two-year term unless Alcon provides the Company with a notice of non-renewal prior to the expiration of the initial term. The Supply Agreement also contains certain termination provisions which provide that the agreement may be terminated (a) by Alcon upon six months’ written notice to the Company, or (b) by either party if the other party fails to perform or otherwise breaches any of its material obligations under the Supply Agreement, the non-breaching party notifies the breaching party of its intent to terminate the Supply Agreement, and the breaching party fails to cure such breach. The Supply Agreement contains terms and provisions customary for transactions of this type, including product warranties and confidentiality and indemnification obligations. Orders of HA pursuant to the Supply Agreement are based on customary forecasting mechanics and are payable by Alcon based on certain prices that are subject to annual index-based adjustments. Pursuant to the Supply Agreement, the Company is also required to commit certain HA manufacturing capacity based on Alcon’s forecasts. Alcon and the Company have also agreed to negotiate in good faith to finalize a plan to increase the Company’s HA manufacturing capacity to meet the anticipated volumes. In the event the Company is unable to supply the agreed-upon volumes and safety stock pursuant to the Supply Agreement, under certain circumstances, Alcon will be entitled to certain rights with respect to the manufacturing and supply of HA for Alcon. All related party transactions are monitored quarterly by the Company and approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Property and Equipment and Finite-Lived Intangible Assets Property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets are stated at cost. Expenditures for major improvements are capitalized while repairs and maintenance are charged to expense. Depreciation is expensed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Customer relationships are amortized to operating expense on an accelerated basis that reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits are consumed. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the economic life of the improvement or the life of the lease. Depreciation and amortization expense for these assets is recorded either in cost of product sales or selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations, depending on the asset and its intended use. The Company capitalizes interest on long-term construction in process projects based on their incremental borrowing rate. The Company capitalizes software development costs for internal use. Capitalization of software development costs begins in the application development stage and ends when the asset is placed into service. The Company amortizes such costs on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of three to seven years, and the amortization expenses is recorded either in cost of product sales or selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations, depending on the asset and its intended use. Property, plant and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying amount of an asset (or asset group) may not be recoverable. The Company’s impairment review requires significant management judgment including estimating the future success of product lines, future sales volumes, revenue and expense growth rates, alternative uses for the assets and estimated proceeds from the disposal of the assets. The Company conducts quarterly reviews of idle and underutilized equipment, and reviews business plans for possible impairment indicators. Impairment is indicated when the carrying amount of the asset (or asset group) exceeds its estimated future undiscounted cash flows and the impairment is viewed as other than temporary. When impairment is indicated, an impairment charge is recorded for the difference between the asset’s book value and its estimated fair value. Depending on the asset, estimated fair value may be determined either by use of a discounted cash flow model or by reference to estimated selling values of assets in similar condition. The use of different assumptions would increase or decrease the estimated fair value of assets and would increase or decrease any impairment measurement. During fiscal year 2022, the Company recorded impairment charges of $5.8 million and $11.9 million related to Yucatan's customer relationships, and property & equipment, respectively. These impairment charges were primarily a result of an indication of a decrease in the fair market values of the Yucatan businesses driven by lower market valuations and a decrease in projected cash flows. The Yucatan related impairment charges are included in Loss from discontinued operations on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Impairment Review of Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Asset The Company tests its goodwill and trademarks with indefinite lives annually for impairment in the fiscal fourth quarter or earlier if there are indications during a different interim period that these assets may have become impaired. On a quarterly basis, the Company considers the need to update its most recent annual tests for possible impairment of its indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill, based on management’s assessment of changes in its business and other economic factors since the most recent annual evaluation. Such changes, if significant or material, could indicate a need to update the most recent annual tests for impairment of the indefinite-lived intangible assets during the current period. The results of these tests could lead to write-downs of the carrying values of these assets in the current period. With respect to goodwill, the Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors such as macro-economic conditions, industry and market environment, cost factors, overall financial performance of the Company, cash flow from operating activities, market capitalization, litigation, and stock price. If the result of a qualitative test indicates a potential for impairment of a reporting unit, a quantitative test is performed. The quantitative test compares the carrying amount of a reporting unit that includes goodwill to its fair value. The Company determines the fair value using a 50/50 weighting of the income and market approaches. To determine the fair value of a reporting unit as part of its quantitative test, the Company uses a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) method under the income approach, as it believes that this approach is the most reliable indicator of the fair value of its businesses and the fair value of their future earnings and cash flows. Under this approach, which requires significant judgments, the Company estimates the future cash flows of each reporting unit and discounts these cash flows at a rate of return that reflects their relative risk and rate of return an outside investor could expect to earn. The cash flows used in the DCF method are consistent with those the Company uses in its internal planning, which gives consideration to actual business trends experienced, and the broader business strategy for the long term. The other key estimates and factors used in the DCF method include, but are not limited to, future volumes, net sales and expense growth rates, and gross margin and gross margin growth rates. Changes in such estimates or the application of alternative assumptions could produce different results. A goodwill impairment loss is recognized for the amount that the carrying amount of a reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds its fair value, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. For trademarks and other intangible assets with indefinite lives, the Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors such as macro-economic conditions, industry and market environment, cost factors, overall financial performance of the Company, litigation, and changes in the business in its annual, qualitative analysis to test for impairment. If the results of a qualitative test indicate a potential for impairment of an intangible asset with an indefinite life, a quantitative test is performed. The quantitative test compares the estimated fair value of an asset to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of such asset exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment charge is recorded for the difference between the carrying amount and the estimated fair value. The Company uses the income approach to estimate the fair value of its trademarks. This approach requires significant judgments in determining the royalty rates and the assets’ estimated cash flows as well as the appropriate discount rates applied to those cash flows to determine fair value. Changes in such estimates or the use of alternative assumptions could produce different results. During fiscal year 2022, the Company recorded impairment charges of $32.1 million and $20.0 million related to its Eat Smart business and Yucatan goodwill, respectively. The Company also recorded an impairment charge of $8.4 million related to its Yucatan trademarks. These impairment charges were primarily a result of an indication of a decrease in the fair market values of the Eat Smart and Yucatan businesses driven by lower market valuations and a decrease in projected cash flows. The Eat Smart and Yucatan impairment charges are included in Loss from discontinued operations within the Consolidated Statements of Operations. During fiscal year 2023, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1.0 million related to Yucatan indefinite-lived intangible asset related to trademarks/tradenames. In addition, during the quarter ended November 27, 2022, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $0.3 million related to O Olive’s indefinite-lived intangible asset for their trademarks/tradenames. The impairments were determined using the royalty savings method to estimate the fair value of its trademarks and was primarily a result of an indication of a decrease in the fair market value of the Yucatan and O Olive businesses driven by lower market valuations and a decrease in projected cash flows. The impairment charges are included in Loss from sales in discontinued operations on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Other than the goodwill and intangibles write-offs discussed above, there were no other impairment losses for goodwill or intangibles during fiscal years 2023, 2022 and 2021. Leases Under Topic 842, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. For this purpose, the Company considers only payments that are fixed and determinable at the time of commencement. As most of the leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is a quoted rate based on the understanding of what the Company’s credit rating would be. Certain agreements may contain the option to extend the lease term, terminate the lease before the contractual expiration date, or purchase the leased asset. The Company, when reasonably certain to exercise the option, considers these options in determining the measurement of the lease. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees. The Company’s lease agreements generally contain lease and non-lease components. Non-lease components primarily include payments for maintenance and utilities. The Company combines fixed payments for non-lease components with lease payments and accounts for them together as a single lease component which increases the amount of lease assets and liabilities. Payments under lease arrangements are primarily fixed; however, certain lease agreements contain variable payments, which are expensed as incurred and are not included in the operating lease assets and liabilities. These amounts primarily include payments affected by changes in price indices. Investment in Non-Public Company On February 15, 2011, the Company made an investment in Windset which is reported at fair value in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of May 30, 2021. The Company has elected to account for its investment in Windset under the fair value option. See Note 1 – Organization, Basis of Presentation, and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for further information. On June 1, 2021, the Company sold all of its equity interest in Windset to the Newell Capital Corporation and Newell Brothers Investment 2 Corp. Deferred Revenue Cash received in advance of services performed are recorded as deferred revenue. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with accounting guidance which requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be recognized using enacted tax rates for the effect of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of recorded assets and liabilities. The Company maintains valuation allowances when it is likely that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. Changes in valuation allowances from period to period are included in the Company’s income tax provision in the period of change. In determining whether a valuation allowance is warranted, the Company considers such factors as prior earnings history, expected future earnings, unsettled circumstances that, if unfavorably resolved, would adversely affect utilization of a deferred tax asset, carryback and carryforward periods and tax strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood of realization of a deferred tax asset. In addition to valuation allowances, the Company establishes accruals for uncertain tax positions. The tax-contingency accruals are adjusted in light of changing facts and circumstances, such as the progress of tax audits, case law and emerging legislation. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. The Company’s effective tax rate includes the impact of tax-contingency accruals as considered appropriate by management. A number of years may elapse before a particular matter, for which the Company has accrued, is audited and finally resolved. The number of years with open tax audits varies by jurisdiction. While it is often difficult to predict the final outcome or the timing of resolution of any particular tax matter, the Company believes its tax-contingency accruals are adequate to address known tax contingencies. Favorable resolution of such matters could be recognized as a reduction to the Company’s effective tax rate in the year of resolution. Unfavorable settlement of any particular issue could increase the Company’s effective tax rate in the year of resolution. Any resolution of a tax issue may require the use of cash in the year of resolution. The Company’s tax-contingency accruals are recorded in Other accrued liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Per Share Information Accounting guidance requires the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share exclude any dilutive effects of options, warrants and convertible securities and is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution as if securities or other contracts to issue Common Stock were exercised or converted into Common Stock. Diluted common equivalent shares consist of stock options and restricted stock units, calculated using the treasury stock method. The following table sets forth the computation of diluted net loss per share:
| Year Ended
(in thousands, except per share amounts) | May 28, 2023 |  | May 29, 2022 |  | May 30, 2021
|  |  | As Restated |  | As Restated
Numerator: |  |  |  |  |
Net loss | $ | (99,563) |  |  | $ | (116,715) |  |  | $ | (32,294) |
Denominator: |  |  |  |  |
Weighted average shares for basic net loss per share | 29,958 |  |  | 29,466 |  |  | 29,294 |
Weighted average shares for diluted net loss per share | 29,958 |  |  | 29,466 |  |  | 29,294 |
Diluted net loss per share | $ | (3.32) |  |  | $ | (3.97) |  |  | $ | (1.10) |
Due to the Company’s net loss in fiscal years 2023, 2022, and 2021 the net loss per share includes only the weighted average shares outstanding and thus excludes restricted stock unit awards (“RSUs”) and stock options, as such impact would be antidilutive. The Company's convertible preferred stock does not participate in losses of the company, and such securities have also been excluded from diluted net loss per share or calculating common and preferred diluted net loss under the two class method. See Note 5 - Stock Based Compensation and Stockholders’ Equity for more information on outstanding RSUs and stock options. Research and Development Expenses Costs related to both research and development contracts and Company-funded research is included in research and development expenses. Research and development costs are primarily comprised of salaries and related benefits, supplies, travel expenses, consulting expenses and corporate allocations. Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation The Company’s stock-based awards include stock option grants and RSUs. The Company records compensation expense for stock-based awards issued to employees and directors in exchange for services provided based on the estimated fair value of the awards on their grant dates and is recognized over the required service periods, generally the vesting period. The estimated fair value for stock options, which determines the Company’s calculation of stock-based compensation expense, is based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The use of Black-Scholes requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions, such as expected volatility, expected term, and risk-free interest rate. RSUs are valued at the closing market price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of grant. The Company uses the straight-line single option method to calculate and recognize the fair value of stock-based compensation arrangements. Employee Savings and Investment Plans The Company sponsors a 401(k) plan (“Lifecore Plan”), which is available to all full-time Lifecore Biomedical employees and allows participants to contribute from 1% to 50% of their salaries, up to the Internal Revenue Service limitation into designated investment funds. The Company matches 100% on the first 3% and 50% on the next 2% contributed by an employee. Employee and Company contributions are fully vested at the time of the contributions. The Company retains the right, by action of the Board of Directors, to amend, modify, or terminate the plan. For fiscal years 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company contributed $1.5 million, $1.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively, to the Lifecore Plan. Fair Value Measurements The Company uses fair value measurement accounting for financial assets and liabilities and for financial instruments and certain other items measured at fair value. The Company has not elected the fair value option for any of its other eligible financial assets or liabilities. Applicable accounting guidance establishes a three-tier hierarchy for fair value measurements, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1 – observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data. Level 3 – unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which would require the Company to develop its own assumptions. The New Term Loan Credit Facility contains embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation as a derivative instrument. The derivative liability related to the Term Loan is recorded as a discount to the term loan in the consolidated financial statements. The embedded derivative liability is subject to remeasurement at the end of each reporting period, with changes in fair value recognized as a component of other expense, net. The fair value of the embedded derivative liabilities associated with the term loan was estimated using a probability weighted discounted cash flow model to measure the fair value. This involves significant Level 3 inputs and assumptions including an (i) estimated probability and timing of a change in control and event of default, and (ii) our risk-adjusted discount rate. At May 28, 2023, the fair value of the embedded derivative liability approximated the fair value upon issuance. As of May 29, 2022, related to the assets of Curation Foods’ BreatheWay packaging technology business, the Company had $1.0 million in Prepaid expenses and other current assets within the Consolidated Balance Sheets meeting the criteria of held for sale. These assets are recognized at the lower of cost or fair value less cost to sell using market approach. The fair value of these assets are classified as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy due to a mix of unobservable inputs utilized such as independent research in the market as well as actual quotes from market participants. Imprecision in estimating unobservable market inputs can affect the amount of gain or loss recorded for a particular position. The use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. The following table summarizes the fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis (in thousands):
| Fair Value at May 28, 2023 |  | Fair Value at May 29, 2022
Assets: | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3 |  | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3
Assets held for sale - nonrecurring | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 1,027 |
Total assets | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 1,027 |

Total liabilities | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 64,900 |  |  |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |
The key inputs to the valuation models that were utilized to estimate the fair value of the debt derivative liability were as follows as of May 28, 2023:
|  | Debt Derivative Liability |
Assumptions |  |  |
Discount rate |  | 22.3% — 24.5% |
Implied spread |  | 18.5% |
Risk free rate |  | 3.8% — 6.0% |
The following table reflects the fair value roll forward reconciliation of Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value for the twelve months ended May 29, 2022 (in thousands):
| Windset Investment (As Restated) |  |
Balance as of May 30, 2021 | $ | 44,769 |  |  |

Accounting Pronouncements On January 9, 2023, upon the issuance of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (as defined in Note 2– Convertible Preferred Stock), the Company adopted ASU No. 2020-06, “Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)”. This ASU simplified the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The FASB reduced the number of accounting models for convertible debt and convertible preferred stock instruments and made certain disclosure amendments to improve the information provided to users. We do not expect that any recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a material effect on our financial statements. Correction of Error in Previously Reported Fiscal Year 2022 and 2021 Annual Financial Statements The Company is restating its previously issued audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended May 29, 2022 and May 30, 2021 (“Prior Financial Statements”), as well as the interim periods within those fiscal years and interim periods within fiscal year 2023, in the fiscal year 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Restatement”). The Restatement results from the identification of errors related to the accounting for net realizable value of its inventory, capitalized interest for construction in progress, revenue and cost of goods sold, and reclassification of the presentation of certain operating costs and expenses of continuing operations and discontinued operations. The restatement also includes previously unrecorded adjustments, including out of period errors, being recorded in the correct accounting period. Impacts for periods prior to fiscal year 2021 have been accumulated and presented as an adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings for the May 30, 2021 fiscal year. The Company has assessed the materiality of these errors in accordance with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99 (“SAB”), Materiality and SAB No. 108, Quantifying Financial Statement Misstatements, and has concluded that the errors are material to the financial statements and therefore the Prior Financial Statements should be restated. For a more detailed description of the financial impact of the restatements of the Non-Reliance Periods, see Note 13 - Correction of Errors in Previously Reported Fiscal Year 2022 and 2021 Annual Financial Statements and Note 14 – Unaudited Quarterly Consolidated Financial Information included in Part IV, Item 15 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
