Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Barfresh Food Group Inc., (“we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company”) was incorporated on February 25, 2010 in the State of Delaware. The Company is engaged in the manufacturing and distribution of ready-to-drink and ready-to-blend beverages, particularly, smoothies, shakes and frappes.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and our wholly owned subsidiaries, Barfresh Inc. and Barfresh Corporation Inc. (formerly known as Smoothie, Inc.). All inter-company balances and transactions among the companies have been eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the years reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Vendor Concentrations

 

The Company is exposed to supply risk as a result of concentration in its vendor base resulting from the use of a limited number of contract manufacturers. Purchases from the Company’s significant contract manufacturers as a percentage of all finished goods purchased were as follows:

 

   2024   2023 
Manufacturer A   54%   49%
Manufacturer B   38%   45%
Other Manufacturers   8%   6%

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The amount of cash on deposit with financial institutions exceeds the $250,000 federally insured limit at December 31, 2023. However, we believe that cash on deposit that exceeds $250,000 in the financial institutions is financially sound and the risk of loss is minimal.

 

 

The following customers accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s accounts receivable balance at December 31:

 

   2024   2023 
Customer A   23%   10%
Customer B   16%   16%
Customer C   10%   25%
Customer D   10%   11%

 

Financial Instruments

 

Our financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and the line of credit and financing agreements. The carrying value of our financial instruments approximates their fair value.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are recorded and carried at the original invoiced amount less allowances for credits and for any potential uncollectible amounts due to credit losses. Accounts receivable from customers are typically unsecured. The Company’s credit policy calls for payment generally within 30 days. The credit worthiness of a customer is evaluated prior to an initial sale and is updated periodically based on payment performance. We make estimates of the expected credit and collectability trends for the allowance for credit losses based on our assessment of various factors, including historical experience, the age of the accounts receivable balances, credit quality of our customers, current economic conditions, and other factors that may affect our ability to collect from our customers. Expected credit losses are recorded as general and administrative expenses on our consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, there was no allowance for credit losses. There was no credit loss expense for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. Accounts receivable amounted to $126,000 on January 1, 2023.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory consists of packaging, raw materials and finished goods and is carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first in first out basis. The Company monitors the remaining useful life of its inventory and establishes a reserve of obsolescence where appropriate.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets are comprised of patents, net of amortization and trademarks. The patent costs are being amortized over the life of the patent, which is twenty years from the date of filing the patent application. In accordance with ASC Topic 350 Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”), the costs of internally developing other intangible assets, such as patents, are expensed as incurred. However, as allowed by ASC 350, costs associated with the acquisition of patents from third parties, legal fees and similar costs relating to patents have been capitalized.

 

In accordance with ASC 350 legal costs related to trademarks have been capitalized. We have determined that trademarks have an indeterminable life and therefore are not being amortized.

 

Long-Lived Assets and Other Acquired Intangible Assets

 

We evaluate the recoverability of property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets for possible impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The evaluation is performed at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. Recoverability of these assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amounts to the future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If such review indicates that the carrying amount of property and equipment and intangible assets is not recoverable, the carrying amount of such assets is reduced to fair value. There was no impairment in 2024 or 2023.

 

 

Property, Plant, and Equipment

 

Property, plant, and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are being amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the asset or the lease term that includes any expected renewal periods that are deemed to be reasonably assured. The estimated useful lives used for financial statement purposes are:

 

Manufacturing equipment 7 years
Customer equipment 7 years

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains ownership of promised goods. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods. The Company applies the following five steps:

 

  1) Identify the contract with a customer
     
    A contract with a customer exists when (i) the Company enters into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii) the Company determines that collection of substantially all consideration for goods or services that are transferred is probable. For the Company, the contract is the approved sales order, which may also be supplemented by other agreements that formalize various terms and conditions with customers.

 

  2) Identify the performance obligation in the contract
     
    Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer. For the Company, this consists of the delivery of frozen beverages, which provide immediate benefit to the customer.
     
  3) Determine the transaction price
     
    The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring goods and is generally stated on the approved sales order. Variable consideration, which typically includes rebates or discounts, are estimated utilizing the most likely amount method. Provisions for refunds are generally provided for in the period the related sales are recorded, based on management’s assessment of historical and projected trends.

 

  4)

Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract

 

Since the Company’s contracts contain a single performance obligation, delivery of frozen beverages, the transaction price is allocated to that single performance obligation.

     
  5) Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation
     
   

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of frozen beverages when title and risk of loss passes and the customer accepts the goods, which generally occurs at the time of delivery to a customer warehouse. Customer sales incentives such as volume-based rebates or discounts are treated as a reduction of sales at the time the sale is recognized. Shipping and handling costs are treated as fulfilment costs and presented in distribution, selling and administrative costs.

 

Payments that are received before performance obligations are recorded are shown as current liabilities.

     
    The Company evaluated the requirement to disaggregate revenue and concluded that substantially all of its revenue comes from a single product, frozen beverages.

 

 

Research and Development

 

Expenditures for research activities relating to product development and improvement are charged to expense as incurred. The Company incurred $132,000 and $115,000, in research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

 

Storage and Shipping Costs

 

Storage and outbound freight costs are included in selling, marketing and distribution expense. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, storage and outbound freight amounted to $1,473,000 and $1,278,000, respectively.

 

Leases

 

We determine if an arrangement is a lease upon inception. A contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The right to control the use of an asset includes the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits of the underlying asset and the right to direct how and for what purpose the asset is used. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As a lessee, the Company leases office space.

 

Income Taxes

 

The provision for income taxes is determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements, uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.

 

ASC 740 requires a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of evidence, it is more than likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be recognized.

 

For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 we did not have any interest and penalties or any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

 

Derivative Liability

 

The Company evaluates its convertible instruments, options, warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” The Company determined that its convertible instruments issued in 2024 and 2023 did not include any embedded derivatives that require bifurcation.

 

Loss per Share

 

We calculate net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, and diluted earnings per share is computed by including common stock equivalents outstanding for the period in the denominator. At December 31, 2024 and 2023 any common stock equivalents would have been anti-dilutive as we had losses for the years then ended.

 

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company calculates stock compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Based Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 requires that the cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements and establishes fair value as the measurement objective in accounting for share-based payment arrangements and requires all entities to apply a fair-value-based measurement method in accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2023 financial statements to conform to the 2024 presentation, namely stock-based compensation paid to the Company’s directors has been reclassified from stock and options issued for services and shares repurchased for employee tax withholding under the Company’s stock compensation program have been reclassified to financing activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows, with corresponding changes reflected in the statement of stockholders’ equity.

 

Interest expense has been reclassified from general and administrative expense in the 2023 financial statements to conform to the 2024 presentation.

 

Recent pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued that we adopt as of the specified effective date. We have not determined if the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will have an impact on our results of operations and financial position.

 

Subsequent events

 

On February 5, 2025, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements with several investors, pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 1,052,793 shares of common stock at a price of $2.85 per share in a registered direct offering.
