Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies

Leases

As discussed in Note 2 above, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases on June 1, 2019, which require lessees to report on their balance sheets a right-of-use asset and a lease liability in connection with most lease agreements classified as operating leases. In November 2022, the Company entered into an extension of its lease for a two year term beginning December 1, 2022. The rent is $6,098 per month for the first year and will increase by a certain amount the following year.

The Company treats a contract as a lease when the contract conveys the right to use a physically distinct asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration, or if the Company directs the use of the asset and obtains substantially all the economic benefits of the asset. These leases are recorded as right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease obligation liabilities for leases with terms greater than 12 months. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the entirety of the lease term. Lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make payments over the life of the lease. A ROU asset and a lease liability are recognized at commencement of the lease based on the present value of the lease payments over the life of the lease. Initial direct costs are included as part of the ROU asset upon commencement of the lease. Since the interest rate implicit in a lease is generally not readily determinable for the operating leases, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate represents the rate of interest the Company would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar lease term to obtain an asset of similar value.

The Company reviews the impairment of ROU assets consistent with the approach applied for the Company’s other long-lived assets. The Company reviews the recoverability of long-lived assets when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on the Company’s ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected undiscounted future pre-tax cash flows of the related operations.

Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, while variable lease payments are expensed as incurred. Variable payments change due to facts or circumstances occurring after the commencement date, other than the passage of time, and do not result in a remeasurement of lease liabilities. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants.

The Company computed an initial lease liability of $131,970 for the new lease agreement and an initial ROU asset in the same amount which was recorded on the books at the commencement of the lease on December 1, 2022. During the three months ended August 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded a lease expense in the amount of $18,659 and $23,559, respectively. As of August 31, 2023, the lease liability balance was $87,208 and the right of use asset balance was $86,111. A lease term of three years and a discount rate of 12% was used.

Contingencies

On November 23, 2020, the Company was served a copy of a complaint filed by Jacksonfill, LLC in the Fourth Circuit Court for Duval County, Florida. The complaint alleged breach of Agreement for non-payments for certain products against the Company. On September 2, 2023, Jacksonfill, LLC and the Company settled the dispute in the Circuit Court of the Fourth Judicial Circuit in Duval County, Florida per a binding settlement agreement. There is no admission of liability by the Company and the Company has agreed to pay Jacksonfill, LLC $125,000 in connection with the settlement. Currently, the Company has recorded a liability of $204,182 to provide for the reserve of the amount in question, which is in excess of what the settlement agreement provides. The adjustment will be made in the subsequent reporting period.
