   <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">In <em style="font: inherit;"> June 2016, </em>the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) <em style="font: inherit;">No.</em> <em style="font: inherit;">2016</em>-<em style="font: inherit;">13,</em> <i>Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments</i>, which revises guidance for the accounting for credit losses on financial instruments within its scope, and in <em style="font: inherit;"> November 2018, </em>issued ASU <em style="font: inherit;">No.</em> <em style="font: inherit;">2018</em>-<em style="font: inherit;">19</em> and in <em style="font: inherit;"> April 2019, </em>issued ASU <em style="font: inherit;">No.</em> <em style="font: inherit;">2019</em>-<em style="font: inherit;">04</em> and in <em style="font: inherit;"> May 2019, </em>issued ASU <em style="font: inherit;">No.</em> <em style="font: inherit;">2019</em>-<em style="font: inherit;">05,</em> and in <em style="font: inherit;"> November 2019, </em>issued ASU <em style="font: inherit;">No.</em> <em style="font: inherit;">2019</em>-<em style="font: inherit;">11,</em> which amended the standard. The new standard introduces an approach, based on expected losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments and modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. The new approach to estimating credit losses (referred to as the current expected credit losses model) applies to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investments in leases and off-balance-sheet credit exposures. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after <em style="font: inherit;"> December 15, 2022, </em>including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Entities are required to apply the standard&#x2019;s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the <em style="font: inherit;">first</em> reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. The Company is still evaluating the impact of this ASU.</p>

   <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">The fair value of the intangible asset associated with customer relationships was estimated using a discounted cash flow method with the application of the multi-period excess earnings method. Under this method, an intangible asset&#x2019;s fair value is equal to the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows attributable to only the subject intangible asset after deducting contributory asset charges.</p>

   <p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;">The rate used to discount the estimated future net cash flows to their present values for the intangible assets was based upon a weighted average cost of capital calculation. The discount rate was determined after consideration of market rates of return on debt and equity capital, the weighted average return on invested capital and the risk associated with achieving forecasted sales related to the assets acquired from Zerust India. The weighted average discount rate used to determine the fair value of the customer relationships was <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:c80008149">15.3%.</span></p>

The intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis, which is consistent with the pattern that the economic benefits of the intangible assets are expected to be utilized based upon estimated cash flows generated from such asset. Goodwill associated with the acquisition was primarily attributable to the expansion opportunity of the Company&#x2019;s ZERUST business in India.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><b>Business Overview</b></p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">NTIC develops and markets proprietary, environmentally-beneficial products and services in over 65 countries either directly or via a network of subsidiaries, joint ventures, independent distributors, and agents. NTIC&#x2019;s primary business is corrosion prevention marketed mainly under the ZERUST&#xae; brand. NTIC has been selling its proprietary ZERUST&#xae; products and services to the automotive, electronics, electrical, mechanical, military, and retail consumer markets for over 45 years and, in recent years, has targeted and expanded into the oil and gas industry. NTIC also markets and sells a portfolio of bio-based and certified compostable (fully biodegradable) polymer resin compounds and finished products under the Natur-Tec&#xae; brand. These products are intended to reduce NTIC&#x2019;s customers&#x2019; carbon footprint and provide environmentally sound waste disposal options.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">NTIC&#x2019;s ZERUST&#xae; rust and corrosion inhibiting products include plastic and paper packaging, liquids, coatings, rust removers, cleaners, and diffusers as well as engineered solutions designed specifically for the oil and gas industry. NTIC also offers worldwide, on-site, technical consulting for rust and corrosion prevention issues. NTIC&#x2019;s technical service consultants work directly with the end users of NTIC&#x2019;s ZERUST&#xae; rust and corrosion inhibiting products to analyze their specific needs and develop systems to meet their performance requirements. In North America, NTIC sells its ZERUST&#xae; corrosion prevention solutions through a network of independent distributors and agents supported by a direct sales force.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">Internationally, NTIC sells its ZERUST&#xae; corrosion prevention solutions through its wholly-owned subsidiary in China, NTIC (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (NTIC China), starting September 1, 2021 its wholly-owned subsidiary in India, Harita-NTI Ltd. (Zerust India), its majority-owned joint venture holding company for NTIC&#x2019;s joint venture investments in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) region, NTI Asean LLC (NTI Asean), certain majority-owned and wholly-owned subsidiaries, and joint venture arrangements in North America, Europe, and Asia. NTIC also sells products directly to its European joint venture partners through its wholly-owned subsidiary in Germany, NTIC Europe GmbH (NTI Europe).</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">One of NTIC&#x2019;s strategic initiatives is to expand into and penetrate other markets for its ZERUST&#xae; corrosion prevention technologies. Consequently, for the past several years, NTIC has focused significant sales and marketing efforts on the oil and gas industry, as the infrastructure that supports that industry is typically constructed using metals that are highly susceptible to corrosion. NTIC believes that its ZERUST&#xae; corrosion prevention solutions will minimize maintenance downtime on critical oil and gas industry infrastructure, extend the life of such infrastructure, and reduce the risk of environmental pollution due to leaks caused by corrosion.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">NTIC markets and sells its ZERUST&#xae; rust and corrosion prevention solutions to customers in the oil and gas industry across several countries either directly, through its subsidiaries, or through its joint venture partners and other strategic partners. The sale of ZERUST&#xae; corrosion prevention solutions to customers in the oil and gas industry typically involves long sales cycles, often including multi-year trial periods with each customer and a slow integration process thereafter.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">Natur-Tec&#xae; bio-based and compostable plastics are manufactured using NTIC&#x2019;s patented and/or proprietary technologies and are intended to replace conventional petroleum-based plastics. The Natur-Tec&#xae; biopolymer resin compound portfolio includes formulations that have been optimized for a variety of applications, including blown-film extrusion, extrusion coating, injection molding, and engineered plastics. These resin compounds are certified to be fully biodegradable in a composting environment and are currently being used to produce finished products, including can liners, shopping and grocery bags, lawn and leaf bags, branded apparel packaging bags and accessories, and various foodservice items, such as disposable cutlery, drinking straws, food-handling gloves, and coated paper products. In North America, NTIC markets its Natur-Tec&#xae; resin compounds and finished products primarily through a network of regional and national distributors as well as independent agents. NTIC continues to see significant opportunities for finished bioplastic products and, therefore, continues to strengthen and expand its North American distribution network for finished Natur-Tec&#xae; bioplastic products.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><b>Recent Acquisition of Zerust India</b></p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">On September 21, 2021, NTIC announced that it acquired the remaining 50% ownership interest in its Indian joint venture, Zerust India, for $6.25 million in cash, effective as of September 1, 2021. Prior to September 1, 2021, NTIC owned 50% of the outstanding capital stock of Zerust India. NTIC had historically accounted for this investment under the equity method of accounting.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">The purchase price of $6.25 million was funded with cash on hand and borrowings under the Company&#x2019;s revolving line of credit, which was increased in connection with the transaction to $5.0 million.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">Because NTIC increased its ownership interest in Zerust India to 100%, the acquisition of Zerust India has been accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 805, Business Combinations, by using the acquisition method of accounting. Effective September 1, 2021, Zerust India is now a consolidated subsidiary within NTIC&#x2019;s financial statements.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">Net sales and net income related to Zerust India since the date of acquisition totaled $2,452,812 and $292,528, respectively. The transaction costs associated with the acquisition were approximately $50,000 and are recorded in general and administrative expense as incurred during the three months ended November 30, 2021.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;">Authoritative guidance on accounting for business combinations requires that an acquirer re-measure its previously held equity interest in the acquisition at its acquisition date fair value and recognize the resulting gain or loss in earnings.&#xa0; As such, since NTIC acquired the remaining 50% ownership interest of Zerust India effective September 1, 2021, NTIC recognized a gain of $3,951,550 during the three months ended November 30, 2021. This gain is included in &#x201c;Remeasurement gain on acquisition of equity method investee&#x201d; on NTIC&#x2019;s consolidated statements of operations.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">As a result of the acquisition of Zerust India, NTIC&#x2019;s revenues and operating expenses increased and its equity in income from joint ventures decreased during the three months ended November 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended November 30, 2020 and it is anticipated that the acquisition will continue to have these effects on NTIC&#x2019;s financial results during the remainder of fiscal 2022.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">NTIC receives funds from its joint ventures as fees received for services that NTIC provides to its joint ventures and as dividend distributions. The fees for services provided to joint ventures are determined based on either a flat fee or a percentage of sales depending on local laws and tax regulations. With respect to NTIC&#x2019;s joint venture in Germany (EXCOR), NTIC recognizes an agreed upon quarterly fee for services. NTIC recognizes equity income from each joint venture based on the overall profitability of the joint venture. Such profitability is subject to variability from quarter to quarter, which, in turn, subjects NTIC&#x2019;s earnings to variability from quarter to quarter. The profits of each joint venture are shared by the respective joint venture owners in accordance with their respective ownership percentages. NTIC typically directly or indirectly owns 50% or less of each of its joint venture entities and, thus, does not control the decisions of these entities regarding whether dividends are paid and, if so, what amount is paid in a given year. The payment of a dividend by an entity is determined by a joint vote of the owners and is not at the sole discretion of NTIC.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><b>Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic</b></p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and shipping, created significant volatility and disruption in financial markets and has resulted in an economic recession. The outbreak and continuing rapid spread of COVID-19 has resulted in a substantial curtailment of business activities worldwide and is causing weakened economic conditions, both in the United States and abroad.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">As part of efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19, federal, state, local and foreign governments imposed various restrictions on the conduct of business and travel, some of which remain in place in whole or in part and some of which have been or may be reinstated. Government restrictions, such as stay-at-home orders, quarantines and worker absenteeism as a result of COVID-19, led to a significant number of business closures and slowdowns. These business closures and slowdowns adversely impacted and may continue to adversely impact NTIC directly and caused some of NTIC&#x2019;s customers and suppliers to operate at a fraction of their capacities or wholly lock down, which disrupted and may continue to disrupt NTIC&#x2019;s sales and production.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">As the events surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic unfolded, NTIC&#x2019;s primary focus was, and continues to be, the health, safety and wellbeing of its employees, customers and suppliers. In order to continue its operations, as permitted by respective state, local and foreign governments, NTIC has adopted numerous safety measures in accordance with U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, World Health Organization, and federal, state, local and foreign guidance in order to protect its employees, customers and suppliers. These safety measures include, but are not limited to, adhering to social distancing protocols, enabling the majority of its employees to work from home, suspending non-essential travel, disinfecting facilities and workspaces extensively and frequently, suspending all non-essential visitors and requiring employees who must be present at NTIC&#x2019;s facilities to wear face coverings. NTIC expects to continue such safety measures for the foreseeable future and may take further actions, or adapt these existing policies, as government authorities may require or recommend or as it may determine to be in the best interests of its employees, customers and suppliers.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">NTIC has been balancing its safety-focused approach with the needs of its customers. Government mandated measures resulting in the substantial curtailment of business activities generally have excluded certain essential businesses and services, including certain manufacturing. With the exception of the temporary closures of NTIC&#x2019;s facilities in China and India during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and again sporadically during 2021, NTIC&#x2019;s manufacturing activities are generally considered part of the &#x201c;critical sector&#x201d; with respect to state and local government orders. This has allowed NTIC to continue to receive orders and provide uninterrupted order fulfillment to its customers. However, its facilities have been operating at a reduced capacity in order to abide by local government requirements and recommendations, such as social distancing practices, and in response to reduced demand. During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, certain of NTIC&#x2019;s facilities were impacted by reduced levels of production, manufacturing inefficiencies due to the reconfiguration of certain of its manufacturing processes in order to implement social distancing protocols and reduced demand. NTIC has engaged and continues to engage in communications with its suppliers in an attempt to identify and mitigate supply chain risks and shipping delays and proactively manage inventory levels in order to align production with demand. While domestic and international governmental measures may be modified or extended, NTIC currently expects that its global facilities will remain operational, although operating at reduced production capacity at certain of its facilities. However, such expectation is dependent upon future governmental actions and demand for NTIC&#x2019;s products, the stability of its global supply chain and the ability of carriers to transport supplies to its facilities and products to its customers.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">As a result of the global economic slowdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, NTIC experienced softened demand in various regions and markets during the three months ended November 30, 2021, which had an adverse effect on NTIC&#x2019;s operating results and financial condition. NTIC expects this softness in sales to continue through at least the second quarter of fiscal 2022. In addition, NTIC has experienced supply shortages and price increases on raw materials and increased labor costs, which have adversely affected its margins. NTIC has also experienced increased shipping costs and shipping delays as a result of freight container shortages. These issues have persisted into second quarter of fiscal 2022 and are expected to continue to persist throughout fiscal 2022. Due to the international reach of COVID-19, NTIC&#x2019;s international joint ventures have also been adversely impacted. It is not possible to predict how long the pandemic will last or the time that it will take for economic activity to return to prior levels for all business units.</p>

  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">Worldwide supply chain disruptions, which were initially brought about by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, have persisted despite the recovery in the global economy and financial markets. These issues have continued into the second quarter of fiscal 2022 and are expected to continue throughout fiscal 2022. NTIC has experienced longer lead times for raw materials, has been forced to find new suppliers of certain raw materials, and has experienced raw material cost increases compared to prior fiscal quarters. Additionally, NTIC has experienced significantly longer shipping times and significant price increases per shipping container compared to prior fiscal quarters due to ocean freight capacity issues resulting from increased demand for shipping and reduced capacity and equipment. These and other issues resulting from worldwide supply chain disruptions are expected to continue throughout fiscal 2022 and could continue to have a material adverse effect on NTIC&#x2019;s business, operating results and financial condition. The precise financial impact and duration, however, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><i>Net Sales</i>. NTIC&#x2019;s consolidated net sales increased 42.4% to $18,193,413 during the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended November 30, 2020. NTIC&#x2019;s consolidated net sales to unaffiliated customers excluding NTIC&#x2019;s joint ventures increased 42.3% to $17,352,974 during the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to the same period in fiscal 2021. These increases were primarily a result of $2,452,812 in incremental sales as a result of the Zerust India acquisition and increased demand, partially offset by softened demand in certain regions and markets due to the COVID-19 pandemic. NTIC expects this softness in sales as a result of the pandemic to continue through at least the second quarter of fiscal 2022.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">NTIC&#x2019;s total ZERUST&#xae; net sales increased during the three months ended November 30, 2021, compared to the prior fiscal year period, primarily due to overall increased demand for ZERUST&#xae; industrial products and services. Overall demand for ZERUST&#xae; products and services depends heavily on the overall health of the markets in which NTIC sells its products, including the automotive, oil and gas, agriculture, and mining markets in particular.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">ZERUST&#xae; oil and gas net sales increased 72.7% during the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to the same period last fiscal year primarily as a result of new opportunities with new customers compared to the prior fiscal year period. NTIC anticipates that its sales of ZERUST&#xae; products and services into the oil and gas industry will continue to remain subject to significant volatility from quarter to quarter as sales are recognized, specifically due to the volatility of oil prices. Demand for oil and gas products around the world depends primarily on market acceptance and the reach of NTIC&#x2019;s distribution network. Because of the typical size of individual orders and overall size of NTIC&#x2019;s net sales derived from sales of oil and gas products, the timing of one or more orders can materially affect NTIC&#x2019;s quarterly sales compared to prior fiscal year quarters.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">During the three months ended November 30, 2021, 20.7% of NTIC&#x2019;s consolidated net sales were derived from sales of Natur-Tec&#xae; products, compared to 20.0% during the three months ended November 30, 2020. Sales of Natur-Tec&#xae; products increased 47.3% to $3,769,628 during the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to $2,558,561 during the three months ended November 30, 2020 as a result of increased global demand. The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted demand for Natur-Tec&#xae; products from across the apparel industry, as well as many large users of bioplastics, including college campuses, stadiums, arenas, restaurants, and corporate office complexes. NTIC still expects these customers will be some of the last businesses to fully re-open, and accordingly, anticipates that the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to adversely affect sales of Natur-Tec&#xae; products during the remainder of fiscal 2022.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><i>Cost of Goods Sold</i>. Cost of goods sold increased 50.2% for the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended November 30, 2020 primarily as a result of the increase in net sales, as described above. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales increased to 68.7% for the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to 65.1% for the three months ended November 30, 2020 primarily due to price increases on raw materials used in NTIC&#x2019;s products, as well as increased labor costs. Although NTIC intends to take certain actions to address inflationary pressures, it expects these inflationary pressures to persist into at least the second quarter of fiscal 2022 and does not expect to realize benefits from its actions until the second half of fiscal 2022.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><i>Equity in Income from Joint Ventures.</i> NTIC&#x2019;s equity in income from joint ventures decreased 24.7% to $1,374,749 during the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to $1,825,712 during the three months ended November 30, 2020. This decrease was primarily due to the fact that Zerust India is now a consolidated subsidiary within NTIC&#x2019;s financial statements and to a lesser extent an increase in operating expenses and a decrease in gross margins at the joint ventures. NTIC&#x2019;s equity in income from joint ventures fluctuates based on net sales and profitability of the joint ventures during the respective periods. Of the total equity in income from joint ventures, NTIC had equity in income from joint ventures of $910,773 attributable to EXCOR during the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to $1,010,537 during the three months ended November 30, 2020. NTIC had equity in income from all other joint ventures of $463,976 during the three months ended November 30, 2021, compared to $815,175 during the three months ended November 30, 2020.</p>

NTIC recognized fee income for services provided to joint ventures of $1,258,858 during the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to $1,336,561 during the three months ended November 30, 2020, representing a decrease of $77,703, or 5.8%. Fee income for services provided to joint ventures is traditionally a function of the sales made by NTIC&#x2019;s joint ventures; however, at various joint ventures, the fee income for services is a fixed amount that does not fluctuate with the increase in sales which was experienced by certain joint ventures during the three months ended November 30, 2021. Total net sales of NTIC&#x2019;s joint ventures increased 0.9% to $27,022,995 during the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to $26,777,343 for the three months ended November 30, 2020 due to increased global demand, partially offset by Zerust India previously being included in the net sales of NTIC&#x2019;s joint ventures. Net sales of NTIC&#x2019;s joint ventures are not included in NTIC&#x2019;s product sales and are not included in NTIC&#x2019;s consolidated financial statements. Of the total fee income for services provided to joint ventures, fees of $218,430 were attributable to EXCOR during the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to $228,826 attributable to EXCOR during the three months ended November 30, 2020.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><i>Selling Expenses</i>. NTIC&#x2019;s selling expenses increased 18.1% for the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to the same period in fiscal 2021 due primarily to incremental expenses due to the Zerust India acquisition, as well as an increase in travel and personnel expenses compared to the expenses incurred during the three months ended November 30, 2020. Selling expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 17.8% for the three months ended November 30, 2021 from 21.5% during the three months ended November 30, 2020 primarily due to the fluctuations in net sales and selling expenses, as previously described.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><i>General and Administrative Expenses</i>. NTIC&#x2019;s general and administrative expenses increased 24.0% for the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to the same period in fiscal 2021 due primarily to incremental expenses due to the Zerust India acquisition, as well as increased travel and personnel expenses compared to the expenses incurred during the three months ended November 30, 2020. As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses decreased to 14.3% for the three months ended November&#xa0;30, 2021 from 16.4% for the three months ended November 30, 2020 primarily due to the increase in net sales, as previously described.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><i>Research and Development Expenses</i>. NTIC&#x2019;s research and development expenses increased 14.9% for the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to the same period in fiscal 2021 primarily due to incremental expenses due to the Zerust India acquisition, as well as increased personnel and development efforts.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><i>Interest Income</i>. NTIC&#x2019;s interest income decreased to $10,943 during the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to $69,538 during the three months ended November 30, 2020 due primarily to changes in the invested cash balances.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><i>Interest Expense</i>. NTIC&#x2019;s interest expense increased to $2,891 during the three months ended November&#xa0;30, 2021 compared to $2,368 during the three months ended November 30, 2020 due primarily to outstanding borrowings under the line of credit during the current fiscal year period.</p>

  <p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;"><i>Remeasurement Gain on Acquisition of Equity Method Investee</i>. Authoritative guidance on accounting for business combinations requires that an acquirer re-measure its previously held equity interest in the acquisition at its acquisition date fair value and recognize the resulting gain or loss in earnings.&#xa0; As such, since NTIC acquired the remaining 50% ownership interest of Zerust India effective September 1, 2021, NTIC recognized a gain of $3,951,550 during the three months ended November 30, 2021. This gain is included in &#x201c;Remeasurement gain on acquisition of equity method investee&#x201d; on NTIC&#x2019;s consolidated statements of operations.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><i>Income Before Income Tax Expense</i>. NTIC had income before income tax expense of $5,226,213 for the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to $1,783,747 for the three months ended November 30, 2020.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><i>Income Tax Expense</i>. Income tax expense was $504,380 during the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to $378,590 during the three months ended November 30, 2020. Income tax expense was calculated based on management&#x2019;s estimate of NTIC&#x2019;s annual effective income tax rate.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">NTIC considers the earnings of certain foreign joint ventures to be indefinitely invested outside the United States on the basis of estimates that NTIC&#x2019;s future domestic cash generation will be sufficient to meet future domestic cash needs. As a result, U.S. income and foreign withholding taxes have not been recognized on the cumulative undistributed earnings of $19,142,941 and $24,702,778 as of November 30, 2021 and August 31, 2021, respectively. To the extent undistributed earnings of NTIC&#x2019;s joint ventures are distributed in the future, they are not expected to result in any material additional income tax liability after the application of foreign tax credits.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;"><i>Net Income Attributable to NTIC</i>. Net income attributable to NTIC increased $3,231,360 to $4,493,759, or $0.46 per diluted common share, for the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to $1,262,399, or $0.13 per diluted common share, for the three months ended November 30, 2020. This increase was primarily due to the remeasurement gain related to the acquisition of Zerust India of $3,951,550 during the three months ended November 30, 2021 included in &#x201c;Remeasurement gain on acquisition of equity method investee&#x201d; on NTIC&#x2019;s consolidated statements of operations, as well as increased gross profit, partially offset by a decrease in joint venture operations and increased operating expenses during the three months ended November 30, 2021. NTIC anticipates that its earnings for the remainder of fiscal 2022 will continue to be somewhat adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, NTIC anticipates that its quarterly net income will continue to remain subject to significant volatility primarily due to the financial performance of its subsidiaries and joint ventures, sales of its ZERUST&#xae; products and services into the oil and gas industry, and sales of its Natur-Tec&#xae; bioplastics products, which sales fluctuate more on a quarterly basis than the traditional ZERUST&#xae; business.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><i>Other Comprehensive Income - Foreign Currency Translations Adjustment. </i>The changes in the foreign currency translations adjustment were due to the fluctuation of the U.S. dollar compared to the Euro and other foreign currencies during the three months ended November 30, 2021 compared to the same period in fiscal 2021.</p>

  <p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;">As of November 30, 2021, NTIC has a revolving line of credit with PNC Bank of $5.0 million, which was increased from $3.0 million effective as of August 31, 2021. $2,500,000 was outstanding under the line of credit as of November 30, 2021. Outstanding advances under the line of credit bear interest at the daily BSBY rate &#xa0;plus 250 basis points (2.50%). The revolving line of credit matures on February 22, 2022. The line of credit is governed under an amended and restated loan agreement. The loan agreement contains standard covenants, including affirmative financial covenants, such as the maintenance of a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and negative covenants, which, among other things, limit the incurrence of additional indebtedness, loans and equity investments, disposition of assets, mergers and consolidations and other matters customarily restricted in such agreements. Under the loan agreement, NTIC is subject to a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.10:1.00. As of November 30, 2021, NTIC was in compliance with all debt covenants. As of November 30, 2021, NTIC did not have any letters of credit outstanding with respect to the letter of credit sub-facility available under the revolving line of credit with PNC Bank.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">On January 4, 2022, NTIC and PNC Bank entered into an Amended and Restated Revolving Line of Credit Note, which extended the maturity date to January 7, 2023 and revised the rate at which amounts outstanding under the line of credit bear interest to equal a per annum rate equal to the daily Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index plus 250 basis points (2.50%). Additionally, beginning February 23, 2022 and through January 7, 2023, the line of credit will be decreased from $5.0 million to $3.0 million.

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">NTIC believes that a combination of its existing cash and cash equivalents, available for sale securities, forecasted cash flows from future operations, anticipated distributions of earnings, anticipated fees to NTIC for services provided to its joint ventures, and funds available through existing or anticipated financing arrangements will be adequate to fund its existing operations, investments in new or existing joint ventures or subsidiaries, capital expenditures, debt repayments, cash dividends, and any stock repurchases for at least the next 12 months. During the remainder of fiscal 2022, NTIC expects to continue to invest directly and through its use of working capital in Zerust India, NTIC China, Zerust Mexico, NTI Europe, its joint ventures, research and development, marketing efforts, resources for the application of its corrosion prevention technology in the oil and gas industry, and its Natur-Tec&#xae; bio-plastics business, although the amounts of these various investments are not known at this time. In order to take advantage of such new product and market opportunities to expand its business and increase its revenues, NTIC may decide to finance such opportunities by borrowing under its revolving line of credit or raising additional financing through the issuance of debt or equity securities. There is no assurance that any financing transaction will be available on terms acceptable to NTIC or at all or that any financing transaction will not be dilutive to NTIC&#x2019;s current stockholders.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">NTIC traditionally has used the cash generated from its operations, distributions of earnings from joint ventures and fees for services provided to its joint ventures to fund NTIC&#x2019;s new technology investments and capital contributions to new and existing subsidiaries and joint ventures. NTIC&#x2019;s joint ventures traditionally have operated with little or no debt and have been self-financed with minimal initial capital investment and minimal additional capital investment from their respective owners. Therefore, NTIC believes there is limited exposure by NTIC&#x2019;s joint ventures that could materially impact their respective operations and/or liquidity.</p>

Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended November&#xa0;30, 2020 was $1,601,120, which resulted principally from NTIC&#x2019;s net income, dividends received from joint ventures, depreciation expense, and stock-based compensation, partially offset by equity in income from joint ventures.</p>
  <p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">NTIC&#x2019;s cash flows from operations are impacted by significant changes in certain components of NTIC&#x2019;s working capital, including inventory turnover and changes in receivables and payables. NTIC considers internal and external factors when assessing the use of its available working capital, specifically when determining inventory levels and credit terms of customers. Key internal factors include existing inventory levels, stock reorder points, customer forecasts and customer requested payment terms. Key external factors include the availability of primary raw materials and sub-contractor production lead times. NTIC&#x2019;s typical contractual terms for trade receivables, excluding joint ventures, are traditionally 30 days and 90 days for trade receivables from its joint ventures. Before extending unsecured credit to customers, excluding NTIC&#x2019;s joint ventures, NTIC reviews customers&#x2019; credit histories and will establish an allowance for uncollectible accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers and other information. Accounts receivable over 30 days are considered past due for most customers. NTIC does not accrue interest on past due accounts receivable. If accounts receivables in excess of the provided allowance are determined uncollectible, they are charged to selling expense in the period that the determination is made. Accounts receivable are deemed uncollectible based on NTIC exhausting reasonable efforts to collect. NTIC&#x2019;s typical contractual terms for receivables for services provided to its joint ventures are 90 days. NTIC records receivables for services provided to its joint ventures on an accrual basis, unless circumstances exist that make the collection of the balance uncertain, in which case the fee income will be recorded on a cash basis until there is consistency in payments. This determination is handled on a case-by-case basis.</p>

Outstanding balances from trade receivables from joint ventures decreased an average of 1 day from an average of 87 days from balances outstanding from these customers compared to August 31, 2021. The average days outstanding of trade receivables from joint ventures as of November 30, 2021 were primarily due to the receivables balances at NTIC&#x2019;s joint ventures in the United States, South Korea and Japan.</p>

This program has no expiration date but may be terminated by NTIC&#x2019;s Board of Directors at any time. No repurchases occurred during the three months ended November 30, 2021. As of November 30, 2021, up to $2,640,548 in shares of NTIC common stock remained available for repurchase under NTIC&#x2019;s stock repurchase program.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><i>Cash Dividends</i>. On April 23, 2020, the Company announced the temporary suspension of its quarterly cash dividend pending clarity on the financial impact of COVID-19 on the Company. Therefore, the Company did not declare a cash dividend during the three months ended November 30, 2020. However, on January 15, 2021, the Company announced the reinstatement of its quarterly cash dividend. On October 20, 2021, the Company&#x2019;s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.07 per share of NTIC&#x2019;s common stock on, payable on November 17, 2021 to stockholders of record on November 3, 2021. The declaration of future dividends is not guaranteed and will be determined by NTIC&#x2019;s Board of Directors in light of conditions then existing, including NTIC&#x2019;s earnings, financial condition, cash requirements, restrictions in financing agreements, business conditions and other factors, including without limitation the effect of COVID-19 on NTIC&#x2019;s business, operating results and financial condition.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">NTIC does not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which are established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet financial arrangements. As such, NTIC is not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if NTIC had engaged in such arrangements.</p>

  <p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;">Although inflation in the United States and abroad historically has had little effect on NTIC, inflationary pressures adversely affected NTIC&#x2019;s gross margins during the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and are expected to persist into at least the second quarter of fiscal 2022. Although NTIC&#x2019;s business historically has not been seasonal, NTIC believes there is some seasonality in its business. NTIC anticipates its net sales in the second fiscal quarter may be adversely affected by the long Chinese New Year, the North American holiday season and overall less corrosion taking place at lower winter temperatures worldwide.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"><b>Market Risk</b></p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">NTIC is exposed to some market risk stemming from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and interest rates.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">Because the functional currency of NTIC&#x2019;s foreign operations and investments in its foreign joint ventures is the applicable local currency, NTIC is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk arising from transactions in the normal course of business. NTIC&#x2019;s principal exchange rate exposure is with the Euro, the Japanese Yen, the Indian Rupee, the Chinese Renminbi, the South Korean Won, and the English Pound against the U.S. Dollar. NTIC&#x2019;s fees for services provided to joint ventures and dividend distributions from these foreign entities are paid in foreign currencies and, thus, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could result in declines in NTIC&#x2019;s reported net income. Since NTIC&#x2019;s investments in its joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method, any changes in foreign currency exchange rates would be reflected as a foreign currency translation adjustment and would not change NTIC&#x2019;s equity in income from joint ventures reflected in its consolidated statements of operations. NTIC does not hedge against its foreign currency exchange rate risk.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">Some raw materials used in NTIC&#x2019;s products are exposed to commodity price changes. The primary commodity price exposures are with a variety of plastic resins.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">When applicable, NTIC accounts for the acquisition of a business in accordance with the accounting standards codification guidance for business combinations, whereby the total consideration transferred is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including amounts attributable to non-controlling interests, when applicable, based on their respective estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. Goodwill represents the excess of consideration transferred over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">Assigning estimated fair values to the net assets acquired requires the use of significant estimates, judgments, inputs, and assumptions regarding the fair value of intangible assets that are separately identifiable from goodwill, inventory, and property, plant, and equipment. While the ultimate responsibility for determining estimated fair values of the acquired net assets resides with management, for material acquisitions NTIC may retain the services of certified valuation specialists to assist with assigning estimated fair values to certain acquired assets and assumed liabilities, including intangible assets that are separately identifiable from goodwill, inventory, and property, plant, and equipment. Estimated fair values of acquired intangible assets that are separately identifiable from goodwill, inventory, and property, plant, and equipment are generally based on available historical information, future expectations, available market data, and assumptions determined to be reasonable but are inherently uncertain with respect to future events, including economic conditions, competition, technological obsolescence, the useful life of the acquired assets, and other factors. These significant estimates, judgments, inputs, and assumptions include, when applicable, the selection of an appropriate valuation method depending on the nature of the respective asset, such as the income approach, the market or sales comparison approach, or the cost approach; estimating future cash flows based on projected revenues and/or margins that NTIC expects to generate subsequent to the acquisition; applying an appropriate discount rate to estimate the present value of those projected cash flows NTIC expects to generate; selecting an appropriate terminal growth rate and/or royalty rate or estimating a customer attrition or technological obsolescence factor where necessary and appropriate given the nature of the respective asset; assigning an appropriate contributory asset charge where needed; determining an appropriate useful life and the related depreciation or amortization method for the respective asset; and assessing the accuracy and completeness of other historical financial metrics of the acquiree used as standalone inputs or as the basis for determining estimated projected inputs such as margins, customer attrition, and costs to hold and sell product.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;">In determining the estimated fair value of intangible assets that are separately identifiable from goodwill, NTIC typically utilizes the income approach, which discounts the projected future cash flows using a discount rate that appropriately reflects the risks associated with the projected cash flows. Generally, NTIC estimates the fair value of acquired customer relationships using the relief from royalty method under the income approach, which is based on the hypothetical royalty stream that would be received if NTIC were to license the acquired trade name. For most other acquired intangible assets, NTIC estimates fair value using the excess earnings method under the income approach, which is typically applied when cash flows are not directly generated by the asset, but rather, by an operating group that includes the particular asset. In certain instances, particularly in relation to developed technology or patents, NTIC may utilize the cost approach depending on the nature of the respective intangible asset and the recency of the development or procurement of such technology. The useful lives and amortization methods for the acquired intangible assets that are separately identifiable from goodwill are generally determined based on the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the acquired intangible assets and the nature of the use of the respective acquired intangible asset, adjusted as appropriate for entity-specific factors including legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic, and/or other factors such as customer attrition rates and product or order lifecycles that may limit the useful life of the respective acquired intangible asset. In determining the estimated fair value of acquired inventory, NTIC typically utilizes the cost approach for raw materials and the sales comparison approach for work in process, finished goods, and service parts. In determining the estimated fair value of acquired property, plant, and equipment, NTIC typically utilizes the sales comparison approach or the cost approach depending on the nature of the respective asset and the recency of the construction or procurement of such asset.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">NTIC may refine the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, if necessary, over a period not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition by taking into consideration new information that, if known as of the date of acquisition, would have affected the estimated fair values ascribed to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The judgments made in determining the estimated fair value assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as the estimated useful life and depreciation or amortization method of each asset, can materially impact the net earnings of the periods subsequent to an acquisition through depreciation and amortization, and in certain instances through impairment charges, if the asset becomes impaired in the future. During the measurement period, any purchase price allocation changes that impact the carrying value of goodwill will affect any measurement of goodwill impairment taken during the measurement period, if applicable. If necessary, purchase price allocation revisions that occur outside of the measurement period are recorded within cost of sales, selling expenses or general and administrative expenses within NTIC&#x2019;s consolidated statements of operations depending on the nature of the adjustment.</p>

Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements and from historical results due to the uncertainties and factors described above and others that NTIC may consider immaterial or does not anticipate at this time. Although NTIC believes that the expectations reflected in its forward-looking statements are reasonable, NTIC does not know whether its expectations will prove correct.

NTIC assumes no obligation to update, amend, or clarify forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in factors or assumptions affecting such forward-looking statements. NTIC advises you, however, to consult any further disclosures NTIC makes on related subjects in its annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and current reports on Form 8-K that NTIC files with or furnishes to the Securities and Exchange Commission.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">NTIC is exposed to some market risk stemming from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and interest rates.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">Because the functional currency of NTIC&#x2019;s foreign operations and investments in its foreign joint ventures is the applicable local currency, NTIC is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk arising from transactions in the normal course of business. NTIC&#x2019;s principal exchange rate exposure is with the Euro, the Japanese Yen, the Indian Rupee, the Chinese Renminbi, the South Korean Won, and the English Pound against the U.S. Dollar. NTIC&#x2019;s fees for services provided to joint ventures and dividend distributions from these foreign entities are paid in foreign currencies, and, thus, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could result in declines in NTIC&#x2019;s reported net income. Since NTIC&#x2019;s investments in its joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method, any changes in foreign currency exchange rates would be reflected as a foreign currency translation adjustment and would not change NTIC&#x2019;s equity in income from joint ventures reflected in its consolidated statements of operations. NTIC does not hedge against its foreign currency exchange rate risk.</p>
  <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#xa0;</p>
  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">Some raw materials used in NTIC&#x2019;s products are exposed to commodity price changes. The primary commodity price exposures are with a variety of plastic resins.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">Any outstanding advances under NTIC&#x2019;s revolving line of credit with PNC Bank bear interest at an annual rate based on daily LIBOR plus 2.50%. As of November 30, 2021, NTIC had borrowings of $2,500,000 under the line of credit that existed as of that date.</p>

  <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">NTIC maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by NTIC in the reports it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission&#x2019;s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to NTIC&#x2019;s management, including NTIC&#x2019;s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. NTIC&#x2019;s management evaluated, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of NTIC&#x2019;s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered in this report. Based on that evaluation, NTIC&#x2019;s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that NTIC&#x2019;s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of such period to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that NTIC files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC&#x2019;s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to NTIC&#x2019;s management, including NTIC&#x2019;s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.</p>

   <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">In <em style="font: inherit;"> June 2016, </em>the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) <em style="font: inherit;">No.</em> <em style="font: inherit;">2016</em>-<em style="font: inherit;">13,</em> <i>Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments</i>, which revises guidance for the accounting for credit losses on financial instruments within its scope, and in <em style="font: inherit;"> November 2018, </em>issued ASU <em style="font: inherit;">No.</em> <em style="font: inherit;">2018</em>-<em style="font: inherit;">19</em> and in <em style="font: inherit;"> April 2019, </em>issued ASU <em style="font: inherit;">No.</em> <em style="font: inherit;">2019</em>-<em style="font: inherit;">04</em> and in <em style="font: inherit;"> May 2019, </em>issued ASU <em style="font: inherit;">No.</em> <em style="font: inherit;">2019</em>-<em style="font: inherit;">05,</em> and in <em style="font: inherit;"> November 2019, </em>issued ASU <em style="font: inherit;">No.</em> <em style="font: inherit;">2019</em>-<em style="font: inherit;">11,</em> which amended the standard. The new standard introduces an approach, based on expected losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments and modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. The new approach to estimating credit losses (referred to as the current expected credit losses model) applies to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investments in leases and off-balance-sheet credit exposures. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after <em style="font: inherit;"> December 15, 2022, </em>including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Entities are required to apply the standard&#8217;s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the <em style="font: inherit;">first</em> reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. The Company is still evaluating the impact of this ASU.</p>
   <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#160;</p>


   <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">Although there are several other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB, which the Company has adopted or will adopt, as applicable, the Company does <em style="font: inherit;">not</em> believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company&#8217;s consolidated financial position or operating results.</p>

   <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The fair values assigned to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management&#8217;s estimates and assumptions. The fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed <em style="font: inherit;"> may </em>be subject to change as additional information is received. The Company expects to finalize the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable, but <em style="font: inherit;">not</em> later than <em style="font: inherit;">one</em> year from the acquisition date.</p>
   <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#160;</p>


   <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">The fair value of the intangible asset associated with customer relationships was estimated using a discounted cash flow method with the application of the multi-period excess earnings method. Under this method, an intangible asset&#8217;s fair value is equal to the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows attributable to only the subject intangible asset after deducting contributory asset charges.</p>
   <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#160;</p>
   <p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;">The rate used to discount the estimated future net cash flows to their present values for the intangible assets was based upon a weighted average cost of capital calculation. The discount rate was determined after consideration of market rates of return on debt and equity capital, the weighted average return on invested capital and the risk associated with achieving forecasted sales related to the assets acquired from Zerust India. The weighted average discount rate used to determine the fair value of the customer relationships was <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:c80008149">15.3%.</span></p>
   <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#160;</p>
   <p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;">The amortization period for the intangible assets is <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:c80008150">15</span> years. The intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis, which is consistent with the pattern that the economic benefits of the intangible assets are expected to be utilized based upon estimated cash flows generated from such asset. Goodwill associated with the acquisition was primarily attributable to the expansion opportunity of the Company&#8217;s ZERUST business in India.</p>
   <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#160;</p>
   <p style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;">Authoritative guidance on accounting for business combinations requires that an acquirer re-measure its previously held equity interest in the acquisition at its acquisition date fair value and recognize the resulting gain or loss in earnings.&#160; As such, since the Company acquired the remaining <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:c80008151">50%</span> ownership interest of Zerust India effective <em style="font: inherit;"> September 1, 2021, </em>the Company recognized a gain of $3,951,550 during the <em style="font: inherit;">three</em> months ended <em style="font: inherit;"> November 30, 2021. </em>This gain is included in &#8220;Remeasurement gain on acquisition of equity method investee&#8221; on the Company&#8217;s consolidated statements of operations for the <em style="font: inherit;">three</em> months ended <em style="font: inherit;"> November 30, 2021.</em></p>
   <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#160;</p>
   <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">The Company has included the financial results of Zerust India in the consolidated financial statements from <em style="font: inherit;"> September 1, 2021. </em>Net revenue and net income related to Zerust India since the date of acquisition totaled $2,452,812 and $292,528, respectively. The transaction costs associated with the acquisition were approximately $50,000 and are recorded in general and administrative expense as incurred during the <em style="font: inherit;">three</em> months ended <em style="font: inherit;"> November 30, 2021.</em></p>
   <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#160;</p>

In addition, they do <em style="font: inherit;">not</em> include any benefits that <em style="font: inherit;"> may </em>result from the acquisition due to synergies that <em style="font: inherit;"> may </em>be derived from the elimination of any duplicative costs.</p>

   <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">The Company has <em style="font: inherit;">three</em> stock-based compensation plans under which stock options or other stock-based awards have been granted: the Northern Technologies International Corporation Amended and Restated <em style="font: inherit;">2019</em> Stock Incentive Plan, the Northern Technologies International Corporation Amended and Restated <em style="font: inherit;">2007</em> Stock Incentive Plan (the <em style="font: inherit;">2007</em> Plan) and the Northern Technologies International Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The <em style="font: inherit;">2019</em> Plan replaced the <em style="font: inherit;">2007</em> Plan with respect to future grants; and, therefore, <em style="font: inherit;">no</em> further awards <em style="font: inherit;"> may </em>be made under the <em style="font: inherit;">2007</em> Plan. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and the Board of Directors administer these plans.</p>
   <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#160;</p>
   <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">The <em style="font: inherit;">2019</em> Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, stock unit awards, performance awards, and stock bonuses to eligible recipients to enable the Company and its subsidiaries to attract and retain qualified individuals through opportunities for equity participation in the Company and to reward those individuals who contribute to the achievement of the Company&#8217;s economic objectives. On <em style="font: inherit;"> January 15, 2021, </em>the Company&#8217;s stockholders approved certain amendments to the <em style="font: inherit;">2019</em> Plan, including an increase in the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the plan by an additional 800,000 shares. Subject to adjustment as provided in the <em style="font: inherit;">2019</em> Plan, up to a maximum of 1,600,000 shares of the Company&#8217;s common stock are issuable under the <em style="font: inherit;">2019</em> Plan. Options granted generally have a term of <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:c80008424">ten</span> years and become exercisable over a <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:c80008425">one</span>- or <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:c80008426">three</span>- year period beginning on the <em style="font: inherit;">one</em>-year anniversary of the date of grant. Options are granted at per share exercise prices equal to the market value of the Company&#8217;s common stock on the date of grant. The Company issues new shares upon the exercise of options. As of <em style="font: inherit;"> November 30, 2021, </em>options to purchase an aggregate of 895,484 shares of the Company&#8217;s common stock were outstanding under the <em style="font: inherit;">2019</em> Plan and 704,516 shares of the Company&#8217;s common stock remain available for grant under the <em style="font: inherit;">2019</em> Plan. As of <em style="font: inherit;"> November 30, 2021, </em>options to purchase an aggregate of 690,007 shares of the Company&#8217;s common stock were outstanding under the <em style="font: inherit;">2007</em> Plan.</p>
   <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#160;</p>


   <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">The Company granted options to purchase an aggregate of 174,840 and 419,874 shares of its common stock during the <em style="font: inherit;">three</em> months ended <em style="font: inherit;"> November 30, 2021 </em>and <em style="font: inherit;">2020,</em> respectively. The fair value of option grants is determined at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the assumptions listed below. The Company recognized compensation expense of $232,883 and $181,669 during the <em style="font: inherit;">three</em> months ended <em style="font: inherit;"> November 30, 2021 </em>and <em style="font: inherit;">2020,</em> respectively, related to the options that vested during such time period. As of <em style="font: inherit;"> November 30, 2021, </em>the total compensation cost for non-vested options <em style="font: inherit;">not</em> yet recognized in the Company&#8217;s consolidated statements of operations was $1,708,368. Stock-based compensation expense of $698,649 is expected through the remainder of fiscal year <em style="font: inherit;">2022,</em> and $671,526 and $338,193 is expected to be recognized during fiscal <em style="font: inherit;">2023</em> and <em style="font: inherit;">2024,</em> respectively, based on outstanding options as of <em style="font: inherit;"> November 30, 2021. </em>Future option grants will impact the compensation expense recognized. Stock-based compensation expense is included in general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations.</p>
   <p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&#160;</p>
   <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions and results for the grants:</p>

In the case of each of the Company&#8217;s executive officer participants, 75% of the amount of their individual bonus payout will be determined based upon the Company&#8217;s actual EBITOI for fiscal <em style="font: inherit;">2022</em> compared to a pre-established target EBITOI for fiscal <em style="font: inherit;">2022,</em> and 25% of the payout will be determined based upon such executive officer&#8217;s achievement of certain pre-established individual performance objectives. The payment of bonuses under the plan is discretionary, and bonuses <em style="font: inherit;"> may </em>be paid to executive officer participants in both cash and shares of the Company&#8217;s common stock, the exact amount and percentages of which are determined by the Company&#8217;s Board of Directors, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee, after the completion of the Company&#8217;s consolidated financial statements for fiscal <em style="font: inherit;">2022.</em> There was $483,334 recognized for management bonuses for the <em style="font: inherit;">three</em> months ended <em style="font: inherit;"> November 30, 2021 </em>compared to $516,667 accrued for management bonuses for the <em style="font: inherit;">three</em> months ended <em style="font: inherit;"> November 30, 2020.</em></p>

   <p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">From time to time, the Company is subject to various other claims and legal actions in the ordinary course of its business. The Company records a liability in its consolidated financial statements for costs related to claims, including future legal costs, settlements and judgments, where the Company has assessed that a loss is probable, and an amount could be reasonably estimated. If the reasonable estimate of a probable loss is a range, the Company records the most probable estimate of the loss or the minimum amount when <em style="font: inherit;">no</em> amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount. The Company discloses a contingent liability even if the liability is <em style="font: inherit;">not</em> probable or the amount is <em style="font: inherit;">not</em> estimable, or both, if there is a reasonable possibility that material loss <em style="font: inherit;"> may </em>have been incurred. In the opinion of management, as of <em style="font: inherit;"> November 30, 2021, </em>the amount of liability, if any, with respect to these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will <em style="font: inherit;">not</em> materially affect the Company&#8217;s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.</p>

   &lt;p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;In &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; June 2016, &lt;/em&gt;the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;No.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2016&lt;/em&gt;-&lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;13,&lt;/em&gt; &lt;i&gt;Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments&lt;/i&gt;, which revises guidance for the accounting for credit losses on financial instruments within its scope, and in &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 2018, &lt;/em&gt;issued ASU &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;No.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2018&lt;/em&gt;-&lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;19&lt;/em&gt; and in &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; April 2019, &lt;/em&gt;issued ASU &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;No.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2019&lt;/em&gt;-&lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;04&lt;/em&gt; and in &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; May 2019, &lt;/em&gt;issued ASU &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;No.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2019&lt;/em&gt;-&lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;05,&lt;/em&gt; and in &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 2019, &lt;/em&gt;issued ASU &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;No.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2019&lt;/em&gt;-&lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;11,&lt;/em&gt; which amended the standard. The new standard introduces an approach, based on expected losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments and modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. The new approach to estimating credit losses (referred to as the current expected credit losses model) applies to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investments in leases and off-balance-sheet credit exposures. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; December 15, 2022, &lt;/em&gt;including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Entities are required to apply the standard&#x2019;s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;first&lt;/em&gt; reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. The Company is still evaluating the impact of this ASU.&lt;/p&gt;

   &lt;p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;Although there are several other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB, which the Company has adopted or will adopt, as applicable, the Company does &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company&#x2019;s consolidated financial position or operating results.&lt;/p&gt;

   &lt;p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;On &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; September 21, 2021, &lt;/em&gt;the Company announced that it acquired the remaining 50% ownership interest in its Indian joint venture, Harita-NTI Limited (Zerust India), for $6.25 million in cash, effective as of &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; September 1, 2021, &lt;/em&gt;the date the Company obtained control. Prior to &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; September 1, 2021, &lt;/em&gt;the Company owned 50% of the outstanding capital stock of Zerust India. The Company had historically accounted for this investment under the equity method of accounting. This purchase was funded with cash on hand and borrowings under the Company&#x2019;s revolving line of credit. The Company undertook the acquisition to enhance its Zerust business in India.&lt;/p&gt;

   &lt;p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;The purchase price of $6.25 million was funded with cash on hand and borrowings under the Company&#x2019;s revolving line of credit, which was increased in connection with the transaction to $5.0 million.&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;Because the Company increased its ownership interest in Zerust India to 100%, the acquisition of Zerust India has been accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;805,&lt;/em&gt; Business Combinations, by using the acquisition method of accounting. Effective &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; September 1, 2021, &lt;/em&gt;Zerust India is now a consolidated subsidiary within the Company&#x2019;s financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;&lt;td style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt; &lt;p style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;"&gt;Cash paid for acquisition&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="width: 1%; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;&#160;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="width: 1%; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt; margin-left: 0pt;"&gt;$&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="width: 12%; text-align: right; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt; margin-left: 0pt;"&gt;6,250,000&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="width: 1%; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt; margin-left: 0pt;"&gt;&#160;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;

   &lt;p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The fair values assigned to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management&#x2019;s estimates and assumptions. The fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; may &lt;/em&gt;be subject to change as additional information is received. The Company expects to finalize the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable, but &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; later than &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;one&lt;/em&gt; year from the acquisition date.&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;


   &lt;p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;The fair value of the intangible asset associated with customer relationships was estimated using a discounted cash flow method with the application of the multi-period excess earnings method. Under this method, an intangible asset&#x2019;s fair value is equal to the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows attributable to only the subject intangible asset after deducting contributory asset charges.&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;"&gt;The rate used to discount the estimated future net cash flows to their present values for the intangible assets was based upon a weighted average cost of capital calculation. The discount rate was determined after consideration of market rates of return on debt and equity capital, the weighted average return on invested capital and the risk associated with achieving forecasted sales related to the assets acquired from Zerust India. The weighted average discount rate used to determine the fair value of the customer relationships was &lt;span style="-sec-ix-hidden:c80008149"&gt;15.3%.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;"&gt;The amortization period for the intangible assets is &lt;span style="-sec-ix-hidden:c80008150"&gt;15&lt;/span&gt; years. The intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis, which is consistent with the pattern that the economic benefits of the intangible assets are expected to be utilized based upon estimated cash flows generated from such asset. Goodwill associated with the acquisition was primarily attributable to the expansion opportunity of the Company&#x2019;s ZERUST business in India.&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;"&gt;Authoritative guidance on accounting for business combinations requires that an acquirer re-measure its previously held equity interest in the acquisition at its acquisition date fair value and recognize the resulting gain or loss in earnings.&#160; As such, since the Company acquired the remaining &lt;span style="-sec-ix-hidden:c80008151"&gt;50%&lt;/span&gt; ownership interest of Zerust India effective &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; September 1, 2021, &lt;/em&gt;the Company recognized a gain of $3,951,550 during the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;three&lt;/em&gt; months ended &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 30, 2021. &lt;/em&gt;This gain is included in &#x201c;Remeasurement gain on acquisition of equity method investee&#x201d; on the Company&#x2019;s consolidated statements of operations for the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;three&lt;/em&gt; months ended &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 30, 2021.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;The Company has included the financial results of Zerust India in the consolidated financial statements from &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; September 1, 2021. &lt;/em&gt;Net revenue and net income related to Zerust India since the date of acquisition totaled $2,452,812 and $292,528, respectively. The transaction costs associated with the acquisition were approximately $50,000 and are recorded in general and administrative expense as incurred during the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;three&lt;/em&gt; months ended &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 30, 2021.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;"&gt;Unaudited consolidated pro forma information assuming the acquisition had occurred on &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; September 1, 2020. &lt;/em&gt;for the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;three&lt;/em&gt; months ended &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 30, 2020 &lt;/em&gt;would have an increase in net sales from $12,779,112 to $14,806,403.&#160; Unaudited pro forma net income had occurred on &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; September 1, 2020 &lt;/em&gt;for the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;three&lt;/em&gt; months ended &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 30, 2020 &lt;/em&gt;was &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; considered material to the Company&#x2019;s consolidated net income. The unaudited consolidated pro forma combined financial information does &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; purport to be indicative of the results which would have been obtained had the acquisition been completed as of the beginning of the earliest period presented or of results that &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; may &lt;/em&gt;be obtained in the future. In addition, they do &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; include any benefits that &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; may &lt;/em&gt;result from the acquisition due to synergies that &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; may &lt;/em&gt;be derived from the elimination of any duplicative costs.&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt;"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

The &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2019&lt;/em&gt; Plan replaced the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2007&lt;/em&gt; Plan with respect to future grants; and, therefore, &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;no&lt;/em&gt; further awards &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; may &lt;/em&gt;be made under the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2007&lt;/em&gt; Plan. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and the Board of Directors administer these plans.&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;The &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2019&lt;/em&gt; Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, stock unit awards, performance awards, and stock bonuses to eligible recipients to enable the Company and its subsidiaries to attract and retain qualified individuals through opportunities for equity participation in the Company and to reward those individuals who contribute to the achievement of the Company&#x2019;s economic objectives. On &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; January 15, 2021, &lt;/em&gt;the Company&#x2019;s stockholders approved certain amendments to the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2019&lt;/em&gt; Plan, including an increase in the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the plan by an additional 800,000 shares. Subject to adjustment as provided in the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2019&lt;/em&gt; Plan, up to a maximum of 1,600,000 shares of the Company&#x2019;s common stock are issuable under the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2019&lt;/em&gt; Plan. Options granted generally have a term of &lt;span style="-sec-ix-hidden:c80008424"&gt;ten&lt;/span&gt; years and become exercisable over a &lt;span style="-sec-ix-hidden:c80008425"&gt;one&lt;/span&gt;- or &lt;span style="-sec-ix-hidden:c80008426"&gt;three&lt;/span&gt;- year period beginning on the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;one&lt;/em&gt;-year anniversary of the date of grant. Options are granted at per share exercise prices equal to the market value of the Company&#x2019;s common stock on the date of grant. The Company issues new shares upon the exercise of options. As of &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 30, 2021, &lt;/em&gt;options to purchase an aggregate of 895,484 shares of the Company&#x2019;s common stock were outstanding under the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2019&lt;/em&gt; Plan and 704,516 shares of the Company&#x2019;s common stock remain available for grant under the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2019&lt;/em&gt; Plan. As of &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 30, 2021, &lt;/em&gt;options to purchase an aggregate of 690,007 shares of the Company&#x2019;s common stock were outstanding under the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2007&lt;/em&gt; Plan.&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;


   &lt;p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;The Company granted options to purchase an aggregate of 174,840 and 419,874 shares of its common stock during the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;three&lt;/em&gt; months ended &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 30, 2021 &lt;/em&gt;and &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2020,&lt;/em&gt; respectively. The fair value of option grants is determined at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the assumptions listed below. The Company recognized compensation expense of $232,883 and $181,669 during the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;three&lt;/em&gt; months ended &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 30, 2021 &lt;/em&gt;and &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2020,&lt;/em&gt; respectively, related to the options that vested during such time period. As of &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 30, 2021, &lt;/em&gt;the total compensation cost for non-vested options &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; yet recognized in the Company&#x2019;s consolidated statements of operations was $1,708,368. Stock-based compensation expense of $698,649 is expected through the remainder of fiscal year &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2022,&lt;/em&gt; and $671,526 and $338,193 is expected to be recognized during fiscal &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2023&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2024,&lt;/em&gt; respectively, based on outstanding options as of &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 30, 2021. &lt;/em&gt;Future option grants will impact the compensation expense recognized. Stock-based compensation expense is included in general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations.&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
   &lt;p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions and results for the grants:&lt;/p&gt;

Each plan participant&#x2019;s percentage of the overall bonus pool is based upon the number of plan participants, the individual&#x2019;s annual base salary, and the individual&#x2019;s position and level of responsibility within the Company. In the case of each of the Company&#x2019;s executive officer participants, 75% of the amount of their individual bonus payout will be determined based upon the Company&#x2019;s actual EBITOI for fiscal &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2022&lt;/em&gt; compared to a pre-established target EBITOI for fiscal &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2022,&lt;/em&gt; and 25% of the payout will be determined based upon such executive officer&#x2019;s achievement of certain pre-established individual performance objectives. The payment of bonuses under the plan is discretionary, and bonuses &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; may &lt;/em&gt;be paid to executive officer participants in both cash and shares of the Company&#x2019;s common stock, the exact amount and percentages of which are determined by the Company&#x2019;s Board of Directors, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee, after the completion of the Company&#x2019;s consolidated financial statements for fiscal &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;2022.&lt;/em&gt; There was $483,334 recognized for management bonuses for the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;three&lt;/em&gt; months ended &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 30, 2021 &lt;/em&gt;compared to $516,667 accrued for management bonuses for the &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;three&lt;/em&gt; months ended &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 30, 2020.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

   &lt;p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;"&gt;From time to time, the Company is subject to various other claims and legal actions in the ordinary course of its business. The Company records a liability in its consolidated financial statements for costs related to claims, including future legal costs, settlements and judgments, where the Company has assessed that a loss is probable, and an amount could be reasonably estimated. If the reasonable estimate of a probable loss is a range, the Company records the most probable estimate of the loss or the minimum amount when &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;no&lt;/em&gt; amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount. The Company discloses a contingent liability even if the liability is &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; probable or the amount is &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; estimable, or both, if there is a reasonable possibility that material loss &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; may &lt;/em&gt;have been incurred. In the opinion of management, as of &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt; November 30, 2021, &lt;/em&gt;the amount of liability, if any, with respect to these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will &lt;em style="font: inherit;"&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; materially affect the Company&#x2019;s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.&lt;/p&gt;
