Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements include all adjustments necessary (which are of a normal recurring nature) for the fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented.

The Company had been in the process of winding down Bacchus operations since September 2011, when they entered into an agreement with Young’s Market of Oregon, LLC to distribute produced wines in-state. Since then, purchased wine inventories have been liquidated, and Company in-state distribution activity has ceased. In-state distribution activities are now reported as discontinued operations. Basic earnings per share are computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding each period. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive shares from stock options and other potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the computation when their effect is anti-dilutive. At September 30, 2013 and 2012, potentially dilutive shares of 77,200 and 298,200, respectively, were excluded from the computation as their effect would be anti-dilutive. 57,253 and 6,954 potentially dilutive shares are included in the computation of dilutive earnings per share for the three month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Restricted Cash – On September 23, 2013 Northwest Farm Credit Services advanced $1,973,949 of cash as net proceeds, calculated as a $2,000,000 loan less $26,051 of associated loan costs, of a loan agreement with the Company for the Hospitality Center remodel and expansion project. These proceeds are held in an account with the lender and will be accessible to the Company, upon certifying expenditures in excess of the Company’s commitment of $2.5 million to the project, with $450,000 being withheld until final project completion. The Company estimates that it is entitled to $326,387 of proceeds, based upon construction expenditures through September 30, 2013, upon obtaining and submitting lien releases from construction contractors with final expenditure certification occurring by January 31, 2014.
