1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation.

 

Description of Business. Lendway, Inc. (“the Company”) has evolved into a specialty agricultural (“ag”) and finance company focused on making and managing its ag investments in the United States (“U.S.”) and internationally. On February 22, 2024, the Company, through its majority-owned U.S. subsidiary Tulp 24.1, LLC (“Tulp 24.1”), acquired Bloomia B.V. (“Bloomia”). Subsequent to the purchase of Bloomia, the Company’s primary operations will be that of Bloomia. Bloomia is a significant producer of fresh cut tulips in the U.S. with a presence in the Netherlands and South Africa. As part of consideration for the business combination, the Company issued units of Tulp 24.1 to the continuing CEO of Bloomia, which amounted to 18.6% and is presented as noncontrolling interest in these condensed consolidated financial statements. The remaining 81.4% equity interest of Tulp 24.1 is owned by the Company and the Company is and maintains control of Tulp 24.1 as its sole managing member. Refer to Note 3 for further discussion. The Company has retained its non-bank lending business via its wholly owned subsidiary, Farmland Credit, Inc. (“FCI”), and FCI’s subsidiaries, Farmland Credit FR, LLC and Farmland Credit AV, LLC. As part of its non-bank lending business, the Company operates FarmlandCredit.com, a non-bank lending business that seeks to purchase existing loans and/or originate and fund new loans domestically.

 

Basis of Presentation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include all wholly and majority owned subsidiaries of the Company. The operations of Bloomia are included since the date of acquisition. Entities for which the Company owns an interest, does not consolidate, but exercises significant influence, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting and are included in equity method investments within the condensed consolidated balance sheets. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Regulation S-X and do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. However, except as described herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to financial statements included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 1, 2024 (the Form 10-K). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 has been derived from the audited balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 contained in the Form 10-K; however, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period classification. Reclassifications had no material effect on prior year net income, net income (loss) per share, or stockholders’ equity.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated results of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, nor for any other future annual or interim period. The tulip sales business tends to be seasonal with spring being the strongest sales season.

 

On August 3, 2023, the Company completed the sale of certain assets and certain liabilities relating to the Company’s legacy business of providing in-store advertising solutions to brands, retailers, shopper marketing agencies and brokerages (the “In-Store Marketing Business”). The operations of the In-Store Marketing Business are presented as discontinued operations. All prior periods presented have been restated to present the In-Store Marketing Business as discontinued operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. ASU 2023-07 requires enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses, includes enhanced interim disclosure requirements, clarifies circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provides new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment, and contains other disclosure requirements. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2023-07 is to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company will not early adopt, and is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2023-07 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 requires public companies to expand their income tax disclosures with respect to the reconciliation of the effective tax rate to the statutory rate for federal, state, and foreign income taxes and requires greater detail about significant reconciling items in the reconciliation. Additionally, the amendment requires disaggregated information pertaining to taxes paid, net of refunds received, for federal, state, and foreign income taxes. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued, and allows for either a prospective or retrospective approach on adoption. The Company will not early adopt, and is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2023-07 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
