NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1 — Organization and Business Operations

 

PSQ Holdings, Inc. dba PublicSq. (“Publicsq.”, “PSQ”, “we”, “us”, “our”, and the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation headquartered in Florida. The Company operates the website and mobile application as PublicSq. The Company is a values-focused organization that provides other values-focused (patriotic, American made, etc.) small businesses with a platform to access consumers that are drawn to patriotic values. The Company generates revenue from advertising revenues.

 

In February 2023, the Company acquired the assets of EveryLife, Inc. (“EveryLife”) by way of a stock for stock exchange. Pursuant to that agreement, the Company acquired a brand name in exchange for 55,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. On July 13, 2023, the Company launched the brand and began generating revenue from sales of diapers and wipes from this operation.

 

Merger Agreement

 

On July 19, 2023 (the “Closing”), the Company consummated the Business Combination (as defined below), pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement dated February 27, 2023 with Colombier Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Colombier”), Colombier-Liberty Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Colombier (“Merger Sub”), and Colombier Sponsor, LLC (the “Sponsor”), a Delaware limited liability company, in its capacity as Purchaser Representative (the “Purchaser Representative”), and PSQ Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“PSQ”) (collectively the “Combined Company”).

 

At Closing, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and after giving effect to the redemptions of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Colombier (the “Colombier Class A Common Stock”) by public stockholders of Colombier: 

 

all options, convertible notes, warrants and other rights to subscribe for or purchase any capital stock of PSQ or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, or that otherwise conferred on the holder any right to acquire, any capital stock of PSQ which remained outstanding and had not been exercised or did not convert automatically into shares of PSQ Common Stock (as defined below) prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) were cancelled without consideration;

 

  each share of PSQ Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“PSQ Common Stock”), including shares of PSQ Common Stock issued upon conversion of outstanding convertible notes of PSQ that automatically converted into shares of PSQ Common Stock immediately prior to the completion of the Merger, in each case other than shares of PSQ Common Stock held by the CEO, was automatically converted into the right to receive 19.476836 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Class A Common Stock”); and

 

  each share of PSQ Common Stock held by the CEO was automatically converted into the right to receive 19.476836 shares of Class C Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Class C Common Stock” and, together with Class A Common Stock, “Company Common Stock”).

The Merger and the other transactions described in the Merger Agreement collectively herein are described as the “Business Combination”.

 

In addition to the right of holders’ of PSQ Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “PSQ Stockholders”) to receive Class A Common Stock or Class C Common Stock, as applicable, in the Merger, PSQ Stockholders and certain executive officers, employees and service providers of PSQ (the “Deemed Equity Holders” and, together with the PSQ Stockholders, the “Participating Equity Holders”) will be entitled to receive up to 3,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Earnout Shares”) in the event certain trading price-based metrics are satisfied during the five (5)-year period commencing on the date of the Closing and ending on the fifth anniversary thereof (the “Earnout Period”), or, if earlier, upon the occurrence of a change of control transaction (as defined in the Merger Agreement) during the Earnout Period with an implied per share price that exceeds the relevant trading price-based metrics. Specifically, Earnout Shares will be earned if one or more of the three (3) triggering events described below occurs:

 

in the event that, and upon the date during the Earnout Period on which, the volume-weighted average trading price of Class A Common Stock quoted on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (or such other exchange on which the shares of Class A Common Stock are then listed) for any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30) consecutive trading day period (the “Earnout Trading Price”) is greater than or equal to $12.50, the Participating Equity Holders will be entitled to receive an aggregate of 1,000,000 Earnout Shares;

 

in the event that, and upon the date during the Earnout Period on which, the Earnout Trading Price is greater than or equal to $15.00, the Participating Equity Holders will be entitled to receive an aggregate of 1,000,000 additional Earnout Shares; and

 

in the event that, and upon the date during the Earnout Period on which, the Earnout Trading Price is greater than or equal to $17.50, the Participating Equity Holders will be entitled to receive an aggregate of 1,000,000 additional Earnout Shares.

 

Each share of the Company’s Class C Common Stock entitles its holder, initially the CEO, to a number of votes per share (rounded up to the nearest whole number) equal to (a) the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock entitled to vote on the applicable matter as of the applicable record date plus 100, divided by (b) the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Class C Common Stock (the “Per Share Class C Voting Power”). As of the Closing Date, as a result of his ownership of 100% of the outstanding Class C Common Stock, the CEO has approximately 52.62% of the voting power of the Company, and the result of most matters to be voted upon by the Company’s stockholders will be controlled by the CEO, who can base his vote upon his best judgment and his fiduciary duties to PSQ stockholders. Each share of Class C Common Stock held by the CEO may be converted by the CEO at any time into one (1) share of Class A Common Stock.

 

Additionally, on the Closing Date, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, Colombier changed its name from Colombier Acquisition Corp. to PSQ Holdings, Inc.

 

PSQ has been determined to be the accounting acquirer based on evaluation of the following facts and circumstances:

 

PSQ’s existing stockholders will have the ability to control decisions regarding election and removal of directors and officers of the Combined Company;

 

PSQ is the larger entity in terms of substantive operations and employee base;

 

PSQ will comprise the ongoing operations of the Combined Company; and

 

PSQ’s existing senior management will be the senior management of the Combined Company.

 

Accordingly, the Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Under this method of accounting, although Colombier acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of PSQ in the Business Combination, Colombier was treated as the “acquired” company and PSQ was treated as the accounting acquirer for financial statement reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of PSQ issuing stock for the net assets of Colombier, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Colombier were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of PSQ.

Note 2 — Liquidity

 

Historically, the Company’s primary sources of liquidity have been funds from financing activities. The Company reported net losses of $47,647,611 and $4,756,056 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and had negative cash flows from operations of $12,274,951 and $4,217,078 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had aggregate cash and cash equivalents of $25,255,909 and net working capital of $27,147,810. In conjunction with the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company received proceeds totaling $34,938,880 in July 2023, after giving effect to Colombier’s stockholder redemptions and before payment of transaction expenses, which will be utilized to fund operations and the Company’s growth plans. The Company believes that as a result of the Business Combination its existing cash and cash equivalents, as well as proceeds received from the Business Combination, will be sufficient to fund operations and capital needs for the next year from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

 

The Company’s future capital requirements will depend on many factors including the Company’s revenue growth rate, the timing and extent of spending to support further sales and marketing and research and development efforts. In order to finance these opportunities, the Company may need to raise additional financing. While there can be no assurances, the Company may need to pursue issuances of additional equity raises and debt rounds of financing. If additional financing is required from outside sources, the Company may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital when desired, the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.

 

Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023.

 

As a result, all significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2022 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all disclosures, including notes, required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are adjusted to reflect actual experience when necessary. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, intangible assets, estimation of contingencies, recoverability of deferred tax assets, the incremental borrowing rate applied to lease accounting, valuation of earn out liabilities and warrant liabilities, and estimation of income taxes. Actual results may differ from our estimates.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

The Company computes basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. All securities that meet the definition of a participating security, irrespective of whether the securities are convertible, nonconvertible, or potential common stock securities, shall be included in the computation of basic EPS using the two-class method. However, when the different classes of units have identical rights and privileges except voting rights, whereby they share equally in dividends and residual net assets on a per unit basis, the classes can be combined and presented as one class for EPS purposes. As such, the Company has combined the Class A and Class C Common stock for purposes of the EPS calculation.

 

Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding. During the periods when they are anti-dilutive, common stock equivalents, if any, are not considered in the computation. As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and Warrants were not considered in the computation as they are anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2022, there were no anti-dilutive shares or common stock equivalents outstanding.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

[1] Marketplace Revenues

 

Advertising services

 

Advertising revenue is generated by displaying ad products and services on the Company’s platform. Customers enter into advertising subscription arrangements. The Company recognizes revenues over-time as the ads are displayed over the subscription period so the Company is providing a service and the service is being consumed by the customer simultaneously over the period of service. In general, we report advertising revenue on a gross basis, since we control the advertising inventory before it is transferred to our customers. Our control is evidenced by our sole ability to monetize the advertising inventory before it is transferred to our customers.

 

The Company recognizes revenue from push notifications and email blasts at a point in time when delivered. Push notifications and email blasts are considered delivered when an ad is displayed to users. When a customer enters into an advertising subscription arrangement that includes push notifications and/or email blasts, the Company allocates a portion of the total consideration to the push notification and email blast performance obligations based on the residual approach.

 

[2] Brand Sales

 

Product sales

 

The Company generates revenue through the sale of diapers and wipes to consumers by way of the Company’s website. The Company considers customer orders to be the contracts with the customer. There is a single performance obligation, which is the Company’s promise to transfer the Company’s product to customers based on specific payment and shipping terms in the arrangement. The entire transaction price is allocated to this single performance obligation. Product revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of the Company’s product, which occurs at shipment. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products.

 

The Company evaluated principal versus agent considerations to determine whether it is appropriate to record third-party logistics provider fees paid as an expense. Thes fees are recorded shipping and handling expenses within cost of goods sold and are not recorded as a reduction of revenue because the Company owns and controls all the goods before they are transferred to the customer. The Company can, at any time, direct the third-party logistics provider to return the Company’s inventories to any location specified by the Company. It is the Company’s responsibility to make any returns made by customers directly to logistic providers and the Company retains the back-end inventory risk. Further, the Company is subject to credit risk (i.e., credit card chargebacks), establishes prices of its products, fulfills the goods to the customer and can limit quantities or stop selling the goods at any time.

 

Product Returns

 

Consistent with industry practice, the Company generally offers customers a limited right of return for products purchased. The Company reviews its receivables quarterly and records a reserve, if necessary. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has not deemed it necessary to record a reserve.

 

8

 

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of 90 days or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company maintains cash accounts with financial institutions. At times, balances in these accounts may exceed federally insured limits. No losses have been incurred to date on any deposits.

 

Warrant Liabilities

 

The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including issued share purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic, ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815-40”). The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. The Company accounts for the Public Warrants (as defined in Note 9) and the Private Placement Warrants (collectively, with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40 under which the Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the Warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. The Warrants for periods where no observable traded price was available are valued using a binomial lattice model. For the Public Warrants, quoted market price will be used as the fair value as of each relevant date.

 

Business Combinations

 

The Company evaluates whether acquired net assets should be accounted for as a business combination or an asset acquisition by first applying a screen test to determine whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. If so, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition. If not, the Company applies its judgement to determine whether the acquired net assets meets the definition of a business by considering if the set includes an acquired input, process, and the ability to create outputs.

 

The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method when it has obtained control. The Company measures goodwill as the fair value of the consideration transferred including the fair value of any non-controlling interest recognized, less the net recognized amount of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, all measured at their fair value as of the acquisition date. Transaction costs, other than those associated with the issuance of debt or equity securities, that the Company incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred.

 

Any contingent consideration (“Earn-out liabilities”) is measured at fair value at the acquisition date. For contingent consideration that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, such contingent consideration are required to be recorded at their initial fair value at the acquisition date, and on each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of liability-classified contingent consideration are recognized on the consolidated statements of operations in the period of change.

 

When the initial accounting for a business combination has not been finalized by the end of the reporting period in which the transaction occurs, the Company reports provisional amounts. Provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period, which does not exceed one year from the acquisition date. These adjustments, or recognition of additional assets or liabilities, reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognized at that date.

 

Inventory

 

Inventories consist primarily of finished goods such as diapers and wipes. Inventories are stated at lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is measured by using an adjusted standard cost method which approximates FIFO (first in, first out). The net realizable value of the Company’s inventory is estimated based on current and forecasted demand, and market conditions. The allowance for excess and obsolete inventory requires management to make assumptions and to apply judgment regarding a number of factors, including estimates applying past and projected sales performance to current inventory levels. As of September 30, 2023, no reserve for inventory has been recorded.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets consist of purchased technology and brand name that were acquired through an acquisition and are amortized on a straight-line basis over useful lives ranging from 1 to 15 years. The Company reviews the recoverability of its intangible assets by comparing the carrying value of such assets to the related undiscounted value of the projected cash flows associated with the assets, or asset group. If the carrying value is found to be greater, the Company records an impairment loss for the excess of book value over fair value. No impairment of the Company’s intangible assets was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022.

Capitalized Software

 

The Company capitalizes costs related to the development of its internal accounting software and certain projects for internal use in accordance with ASC 350 - Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. The Company capitalizes costs to develop its mobile application and website when preliminary development efforts are successfully completed, management has authorized and committed project funding, and it is probable that the project will be completed, and the software will be used as intended. Costs incurred during the preliminary planning and evaluation stage of the project and during the post implementation operational stage, including maintenance, are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred for enhancements that are expected to result in additional functionality are capitalized and expensed over the estimated useful life of the upgrades on a per project basis. Amortization is computed on an individual product basis over the estimated economic life of the product using the straight-line method. Software development costs expensed and not capitalized, which are included in research and development expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations, were $80,244 and $34,776 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and $1,015,540 and $139,199 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively. The gross capitalized software development costs included in intangible assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, were $4,016,771 and $2,177,053, respectively.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company reviews long-lived assets, including intangible, capitalized software and lease assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured first by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are impaired, an impairment loss would be recognized based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset above the fair value of the asset.

 

Convertible Notes

 

The Company may enter into convertible notes, some of which contain, predominantly, fixed rate conversion features, whereby the outstanding principal and accrued interest may be converted by the holder, into common shares at a fixed discount to the market price of the common stock at the time of conversion. In this case, the convertible notes represent a financial instrument other than an outstanding share that embodies a conditional obligation that the issuer must or may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares. The Company records the convertible note liability at its fixed monetary amount by measuring and recording a premium, as applicable, on the convertible notes date with a charge to expense in accordance with ASC-480 - Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.

 

Leases

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. For leases where the Company is the lessee, right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the term of the lease and the lease liabilities represent an obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. The Company’s lease agreement contains rent escalation provisions, which are considered in determining the ROU assets and lease liabilities. The Company begins recognizing rent expense when the lessor makes the underlying asset available for use by the Company. Lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. Lease renewal periods are considered on a lease-by-lease basis in determining the lease term. The interest rate the Company uses to determine the present value of future lease payments is the Company’s incremental borrowing rate because the rate implicit in the Company’s leases is not readily determinable. The incremental borrowing rate is a hypothetical rate for collateralized borrowings in economic environments where the leased asset is located based on credit rating factors. The ROU asset is determined based on the lease liability initially established and adjusted for any prepaid lease payments and any lease incentives received. The lease term to calculate the ROU asset and related lease liability includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. Certain leases contain variable costs, such as common area maintenance, real estate taxes or other costs. Variable lease costs are expensed as incurred on the statements of operations.

 

Operating leases are included in the ROU assets and lease liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company has no finance leases.

 

Share Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes an expense for share-based compensation awards based on the estimated fair value of the award on the date of grant.

 

As of September 30, 2023 there were 3,115,989 RSUs outstanding. At December 31, 2022, there were no board approved grants of share-based compensation awards.

 

Research and Development

 

The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred, except for certain internal-use software development costs, which may be capitalized as noted above. Research and development expenses consist primarily of software development costs, including employee compensation and external contractors, associated with the ongoing development of the Company’s technology.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset, or the amount paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There is a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The Company classifies fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 — Inputs based on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3 — Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs are both unobservable for the asset and liability in the market and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

 

On February 23, 2023, the Company acquired the assets of EveryLife by way of a stock for stock exchange (See Note 5 “Asset Acquisition”). The assets acquired have been recorded at their relative fair value based on a valuation obtained by the Company using the market approach.

 

In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company establishes the fair value of its assets and liabilities using the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to measure fair value. The recorded amounts of certain financial instruments, including accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, debt at fixed interest rates, and other liabilities approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities.

 

The Company’s policy is to record transfers between levels, if any, as of the beginning of the fiscal year. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 no transfers between levels have been recognized.

  

Segment Reporting

 

Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company has determined that the Company has two reportable segments comprised of Marketplace and Brands.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has assessed the adoption impacts of recently issued accounting standards by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as well as material updates to previous assessments, if any, to the Company’s annual audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form S-4 for the year ended December 31, 2022.

 

Note 4 — Recapitalization

 

As discussed in Note 1, “Organization and Business Operations”, the Business Combination was consummated on July 19, 2023, which, for accounting purposes, was treated as the equivalent of PSQ issuing stock for the net assets of Colombier, accompanied by recapitalization. Under this method of accounting, Colombier was treated as the acquired company for financial accounting and reporting purposes under GAAP.

EveryLife Inc.

 

On February 23, 2023, the Company acquired the assets of EveryLife by way of a stock for stock exchange. Pursuant to that agreement, the Company acquired a brand name in exchange for 55,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Through the stock for stock exchange agreement, the Company acquired EveryLife’s marketing related intangibles which consist of a brand name.

 

This acquisition was accounted for as an asset purchase. The cost of a group of assets acquired in an asset acquisition shall be allocated to the individual assets acquired or liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values and shall not give rise to goodwill.

Note 7 — Leases

 

Since inception, the Company has entered into three leases for office suites in California, two were short-term and one lease was long-term and expires in 2024. Termination of the lease is prohibited unless there is a violation under the lease agreement. The lease has escalating payments from $15,538 per month to $16,719 per month. In determining the length of the lease term, the Company determined there was no embedded extension option. At lease commencement date, the Company estimated the lease liability and the right-of-use assets at present value using the Company’s estimated incremental borrowing rate of 10.5%

 

Additionally, in October 2023, the Company has entered into a new sublease in Florida, which will become the new headquarters (see Note 15).

 

Rent expense under the operating leases included in the results of operations, inclusive of common area maintenance charges and real estate taxes, was $108,827 and $29,589 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively and $220,895 and $72,131 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

The following amounts were recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets relating to its operating lease and other supplemental information:

 

   September 30,

Note 8 — Convertible Promissory Notes

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company issued convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) in the total amount of $22,500,000 that accrue interest at the rate of 5% per annum until converted or paid in full upon maturity being December 31, 2024.

 

As described in Note 1, on July 19, 2023, the Company consummated the Business Combination and became a publicly-traded company at which time the balance under each Note converted automatically into shares of PSQ Common Stock at a conversion price per share based upon an implied $100 million fully diluted pre-money valuation, excluding the Notes.

 

The Notes are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance under ASC 480-10-25-14, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the Notes are recognized as non-cash gains or losses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Note 9 — Warrant Liabilities

 

As part of Colombier’s initial public offering (“IPO”), Colombier issued warrants to third-party investors where each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share (the “Public Warrants”). Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, Colombier completed the private sale of warrants where each warrant allows the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at $11.50 per share. At September 30, 2023, there are 5,750,000 Public Warrants and 5,700,000 Private Placement warrants outstanding.

 

These warrants expire on the fifth anniversary of the Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation and are exercisable commencing 30 days after the Business Combination, provided that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or the Company permits holders to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis under the circumstances specified in the warrant agreement) and registered, qualified or exempt from registration under the securities, or blue sky, laws of the state of residence of the holder.

 

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:

 

in whole and not in part;

 

at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

 

15

 

 

upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption given after the warrants become exercisable to each warrant holder; and

 

if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing once the warrants become exercisable and ending three business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

 

The Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. Accordingly, the Company recognized the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value as of the Closing Date, with an offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital and adjusts the carrying value of the instruments to fair value through other income (expense) on the condensed consolidated statement of operations at each reporting period until they are exercised. As of September 30, 2023, the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants are presented within warrants on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

 

Note 10 — Related Parties

 

On August 25, 2023, the Company and its former Chief Operating Officer (“COO”) entered into a separation and release of claims agreement (the “Separation Agreement”) providing for the COO’s departure from his position to pursue other business opportunities. The effective date of the COO’s departure was August 25, 2023 (the “Separation Date”). Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, the COO is entitled to receive continued payment of his 2023 annual base salary for a period of 12 months, subject to his compliance with the Separation Agreement, including a release of claims in favor of the Company, certain restrictive covenants described below and the forfeiture to the Company by the COO of 1,704,223 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock.

Inc. Subject to eligibility, the Separation Agreement provides for continued payment by the Company of the Company’s share of COBRA premiums for the COO’s health benefit coverage for a period of up to 12 months following the Separation Date. The Separation Agreement also provides for, among other things, non-disclosure and non-solicitation obligations applicable to the COO and mutual non-disparagement obligations.

Note 11 — Share Based Compensation

 

On July 25, 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the PSQ Holdings, Inc. 2023 Stock Incentive Plan as well as the 2023 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, whereby it may grant to certain employees, consultants and advisors an award, such as (a) incentive stock options, (b) non-qualified stock options, (c) restricted stock and (d) RSUs, of the Company.

 

2023 Stock incentive plan

 

Awards may be made under the Plan for up to such number of shares of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Class A Common Stock”) as is equal to the sum of:

 

(A) a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the outstanding shares of all classes of Company common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Company Common Stock”), determined immediately following the closing of the Merger Agreement.

 

(B) an annual increase to be added on the first day of each fiscal year, commencing on January 1, 2024 and continuing for each fiscal year until, and including, January 1, 2033, equal to the lesser of (i) 1% of the outstanding shares of all classes of Company Common Stock on such date and (ii) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock determined by the Board.

 

2023 Employee Stock Purchase plan

 

The purpose of this plan is to provide eligible employees opportunities to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. For this purpose, the Board approved 600,000 shares of Class A Common stock, plus an annual increase to be added on the first day of each fiscal year, commencing on January 1, 2024 and continuing for each fiscal year until, and including, January 1, 2033, equal to the least of (i) 425,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, (ii) 1% of the outstanding shares of all classes of Company common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, on such date and (iii) a number of shares of Class A Common Stock determined by the Board.

Restricted Stock Units

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company issued RSU’s under the 2023 Stock Incentive Plan to employees, advisors, and board of directors. Each RSU entitles the recipient to one share of our common stock upon vesting. The Company measures the fair value of RSUs using the stock price on the date of grant.

 

Share-based compensation expense for RSUs is recorded ratably over their vesting period.

 

A summary of the activity with respect to, and status of, RSUs during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 is presented below:

 

   Number of
RSUs

Vested   (131,568)   
 
 
Unvested as of September 30, 2023   2,984,421   $10.12 

 

As of September 30, 2023, unrecognized compensation cost related to the grant of RSUs was approximately $22.4 million. Unvested outstanding RSUs as of September 30, 2023 had a weighted average remaining vesting period of 3.0 years.

 

Share based compensation relating to earn-out

 

As more fully described in Note 1, certain executive officers, employees and service providers of PSQ will be entitled to receive up to 3,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Earnout Shares”) in the event certain trading price-based metrics are satisfied during the five (5)-year period commencing on the date of the Closing and ending on the fifth anniversary thereof (the “Earnout Period”), or, if earlier, upon the occurrence of a change of control transaction (as defined in the Merger Agreement) during the Earnout Period with an implied per share price that exceeds the relevant trading price-based metrics.

 

In accordance with ASC 718, these are awards granted with a market condition. The effect of this market condition was reflected in the grant-date fair value of an award. The fair value of the earn-out shares was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation utilizing assumptions related to the contractual term of the instruments, estimated volatility of the price of the Common Stock and current interest rates. Below are the key assumptions used in valuing the earn-out shares:

 

   As of 9/30/2023 
PSQH Stock Price  $9.08 
Volatility   40%
Risk free rate of return   4.6%
Expected term (in years)   4.8 

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded $767,719 of share-based compensation expense, related to the earn-out shares.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded the following share-based compensation expense, related to RSUs and earn-out shares:

Note 13 — Segments

 

The Company routinely evaluates whether its operating and reportable segments continue to reflect the way the CODM evaluates the business. The determination is based on: (1) how the Company’s CODM evaluates the performance of the business, including resource allocation decisions, and (2) whether discrete financial information for each operating segment is available. The Company considers the chief executive officer to be its CODM.

 

As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s operating and reportable segments include:

 

Marketplace: PSQ has created a marketplace platform to access consumers that are drawn to patriotic values. The Company generates revenue from advertising revenues.

 

Brands: The first wholly-owned brand is EveryLife, Inc., which generates revenue from online sales of diapers and wipes

 

The CODM measures and evaluates the Company’s performance based on gross revenue and Segment Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”). Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings (loss) from operations less depreciation and amortization, share based compensation and transaction costs. Earnings (loss) from operations excludes interest, interest expense, (gain) loss on sale of equipment, change in fair value of financial instruments and other expenses. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of the Company’s business segments because it is the primary measure used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker to evaluate the performance of and allocate resources to the Company’s businesses.

 

Segment performance, as defined by the Company, is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies.

 

The following tables set forth the Company’s revenues, net and adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022:

The Company has built its eCommerce marketplace with multiple user experience enhancements and is seeing tremendous engagement from businesses with over 400,000 products now available for purchase.

 

Business Combination

 

On February 27, 2023, PublicSq. Inc. (formerly known as PSQ Holdings, Inc.) entered into the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Colombier-Liberty Acquisition, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), Colombier Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) and PSQ Holdings, Inc. (formerly known as Colombier Acquisition Corp.) (“Colombier”).

 

On July 19, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), we consummated the Business Combination, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement.

 

The Business Combination (as defined in the Merger Agreement) was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Under this method of accounting, Colombier was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes and PSQ was treated as the “acquirer”.

 

Upon the closing of the transaction, the CEO possessed approximately 52.62% of the voting power of the Combined Company (depending on the number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class C Common Stock at such time) through the issuance to him of shares of Class C Common Stock in connection with the Business Combination. As of the date of this report, the CEO controls approximately 52.81% of our outstanding voting power due to his ownership all of our outstanding shares of Class C Common Stock.

Convertible Promissory Notes

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we issued convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) in the total amount of $22,500,000 that accrue interest at the rate of 5% per annum until converted. As described above, on July 19, 2023, we consummated the Business Combination and became a publicly-traded company at which time the balances under each Note converted automatically into shares of PSQ Common Stock at a conversion price per share based upon an implied $100 million fully diluted pre-money valuation, excluding the Notes. The Notes are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance under ASC 480-10-25-14, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the Notes are recognized as non-cash gains or losses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

Upon the conversion and before giving effect to the Business Combination, 204,570 shares of Private PSQ Common Stock were issued in respect of the aggregate balances under all the Notes which represented approximately 18.5% of the total outstanding shares of Private PSQ Common Stock.

 

Components of Results of Operations

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, our net loss was $20.2 million and $2.1 million, respectively and during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, our net loss was $47.6 million, and $4.8 million, respectively. Our net loss increased in 2023 from 2022, largely due to the $14.6 million increase in the fair value of the convertible notes, $7.8 million increase in fair value of the warrant liabilities, as well as $7.0 million related to transaction costs incurred due to the business combination and $1.2 million of share-based compensation incurred. Our expenses will likely increase in the future as we develop and launch new offerings and platform features, expand in existing and new markets, increase our sales and marketing efforts and continue to invest in our platform, as well as a result of our becoming a public company. We have not been profitable since inception, and as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our accumulated deficit was $56.5 million and $8.9 million, respectively. Since inception, we have financed our operations primarily through equity raises and operating activities.

 

Revenues, net

 

Our revenues have been derived from the advertising of products and services on the PSQ platform as well as from product sales.

 

In July 2023, the Company launched the EveryLife business and began to generate revenue through the sale of diapers and wipes to consumers by way of the EveryLife’s website. The Company considers customer orders to be the contracts with the customer. There is a single performance obligation, which is the Company’s promise to transfer the Company’s product to customers based on specific payment and shipping terms in the arrangement.

 

Our advertising revenues are derived from multi-month fixed price contracts for advertising subscription arrangements. Revenues from subscription contracts are recognized using the “over-time” method of revenue recognition. Accordingly, we recognize revenues over-time as the advertisements are displayed over the subscription period and the service is being consumed by the business member simultaneously over the period of service. Over-time revenue recognition is based on an input measure of progress based on costs incurred compared to estimated total costs at completion. Each advertisement has a contractual revenue value and an estimated cost. The over-time revenue is recognized monthly.

 

We recognize advertising revenue from push notifications and email blasts at the point of delivery. Push notifications and email blasts are considered delivered when an advertisement is displayed to users. When a customer enters into an advertising subscription arrangement that includes push notifications and/or email blasts, we allocate a portion of the total consideration to the push notification and email blast performance obligations based on the residual approach, if the standalone selling price (“SSP”) is not observable. We use the residual approach, which is a method to allocate revenue to a remaining performance obligation. We have stand-alone selling prices for all other services in the advertising package. After allocating revenue per package to those other services based on their stand-alone selling price, the email blasts and push notifications are allocated to the remaining revenue for that package. We are able to determine the SSP based on the cost charged to a customer for each service. If the level of service includes multiple performance obligations, the incremental difference attributed to the additional service represents its standalone selling price. We calculate the SSP of the push notification or email blast, and record the revenue when the advertisement is displayed to users.

 

23

 

 

In general, we report advertising revenue on a gross basis, since we control the advertising inventory before it is transferred to our customers. Our control is evidenced by our sole ability to monetize the advertising inventory before it is transferred to our customers.

 

In the future, in addition to greater levels of advertising revenue expected as a result of the growth of our marketplace, we also expect to realize increased amounts of business-to-business (“B2B”) revenue and to begin realizing e-commerce transactional revenue as we expand our business operations into those areas.

 

For a description of our revenue recognition policies, see Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Cost of Sales - Services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization)

 

Cost of sales- services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) consists of the direct costs incurred in building and running subscription-based software services. We recognize the cost of revenue associated with personnel costs, general administrative expenses, and fees related to servers that assist in hosting our platform.

 

Cost of goods sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization)

 

Cost of goods sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) includes the purchase price of merchandise sold to customers, inbound and outbound shipping and handling costs, freight and duties, shipping and packaging supplies and warehouse fulfillment costs incurred.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses primarily include general and administrative, research and development, sales and marketing, and depreciation and amortization. The most significant component of our operating expenses is personnel-related costs such as salaries, benefits, and bonuses. We expect our personnel-related costs as a percentage of total costs to decrease over time.

 

We expect to continue to invest substantial resources to support our growth. We anticipate that each of the following categories of operating expenses will increase in absolute dollar amounts and decrease as a percentage of revenue for the foreseeable future.

 

Transaction costs incurred in connection with the Business Combination

 

Transaction costs incurred in connection with the Business Combination primarily consists of professional fees, travel expenses and one-time share-based payments to non-employee advisors and influencers.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses for our finance, legal, human resources and administrative personnel, as well as the costs of information technology, professional services, insurance, travel, and other administrative expenses. We expect to invest in our corporate organization and incur additional expenses associated with transitioning to, and operating as, a public company, including increased legal, audit, tax and accounting costs, investor relations costs, higher insurance premiums and compliance costs. As a result, we expect that general and administrative expenses will increase in absolute dollars in future periods but decline as a percentage of total revenue over time. Our inability to scale our expenses could negatively impact gross margin and profitability.

 

Sales and Marketing Expenses

 

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, employee benefits, consultant fees, commissions, and direct marketing costs related to the promotion of PSQ’s platforms/solutions and certain costs related to the acquisition of both consumer and business members on our platform. As a result, we expect that sales expenses will increase in absolute dollars in future periods as we increase marketing activities, grow our operations, and continue to build our brand awareness. but decline as a percentage of total revenue over time. Our inability to scale our expenses could negatively impact gross margin and profitability.

 

24

 

 

Research and Development Expenses

 

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries, employee benefits and consultant fees related to our development activities to originate, develop, and enhance our platform. We expect research and development expenses to increase over time due to growth in our engineering and product teams, especially related to the continued development of e-commerce functionality.

 

Depreciation and Amortization Expense

 

Depreciation and amortization expense consists primarily of amortization of capitalized software development costs.

 

Non-Operating Income and Other Items

 

Other Income, Net

 

Other income, net primarily relates to realized and unrealized gains on our available for sale investments for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and Employee Retention Tax Credit (“ERTC”) and the Research and Development Tax Credit (“R&D Tax Credit”) for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

 

Change in fair value of convertible promissory notes

 

Changes in the fair value of Notes are recorded in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Notes represent a financial instrument other than an outstanding share that embodies a conditional obligation that the issuer must or may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares. We record the Note liability at its fixed monetary amount by measuring and recording a premium, as applicable, on the Notes date with a charge to expense.

 

Change in fair value of earn-out liabilities

 

Changes in the fair value of earn-out liabilities are recorded in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Earn-out liabilities represent a financial instrument other than an outstanding share that embodies a conditional obligation that the issuer must or may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares. We record the earn-out liability at its fair value at each reporting period.

 

Change in fair value of warrant liabilities

 

Changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities are recorded in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The warrant liabilities represent a financial instrument other than an outstanding share that embodies a conditional obligation that the issuer must or may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares. We record the warrant liabilities at its fair value at each reporting period.

 

Interest Expense, net

 

Interest expense incurred consists of interest accrued on Notes issued. The Notes were converted to equity at the close of the Business Combination.

 

Income Tax Expense

 

We are subject to income taxes in the United States, but due to our net operating loss (“NOL”) position, we have recognized a minimal provision or benefit in recent years. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We have established a full valuation allowance to offset our U.S. net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of realizing future tax benefits from our NOL carryforwards and other deferred tax assets.

Key Business Metrics and Selected Financial Data

 

We use certain key metrics and financial measures not prepared in accordance with GAAP to evaluate and manage our business.

 

Adjusted EBITDA

 

We define adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as earnings (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, as adjusted to exclude change in fair value of our financial instruments, other income (expense), net, transaction expenses and share-based compensation expense. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of GAAP net loss to adjusted EBITDA.

 

Total Active Consumer Members on Platform

 

We perform calculations utilizing total active consumer members on our platform as a measure of the reach of our app and website over time. Total active members, as defined by us, are unique consumer membership accounts for which we have received all required contact information, and which have not been deactivated or deleted. These numbers are based on data provided directly from our database. Total active consumer members on our platform do not include unique visitors to the site nor individuals who download the app but do not create an account to login. Our definition of total active consumer members may differ from similar definitions and metrics used by other companies.

 

Total active consumer members on our platform were over 1,590,000 at September 30, 2023, an increase of 646% from September 30, 2022. We believe that significant growth in our total active consumer members is attributable to earned media, word of mouth referrals, our outreach program and consumer interest in our platform.

 

 

 

Total Business Members on Platform

 

We calculate the total business members on our platform as a measure of the reach of our app and website over time. Total business members represent unique business members who have been verified and added to the platform by our team. Total business members do not include business members that were not approved by our team to be on our platform. Our definition of total business members on our platform may differ from similar definitions and metrics used by other companies.

 

Total business members increased to 70,955 at September 30, 2023, an increase of 224% from September 30, 2022. We believe that the significant growth in the total business members on our platform is attributable to earned media, word of mouth referrals, and our Outreach Program.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Historically, we have financed operations primarily through cash generated from equity raises and operating activities. Our primary short-term requirements for liquidity and capital are to fund general working capital and capital expenditures. Our principal long-term working capital uses include increasing our advertising and marketing exposure, expanding our internal engineering and product teams, developing and launching D2C products, and developing and rolling out e-commerce capabilities.

 

In connection with the expected launch of our first D2C branded products, we intend to fund initial inventory requirements with cash on hand. Longer term, our expected liquidity and capital requirements will likely consist of research and development needed to identify additional D2C opportunities. We do not currently anticipate that growth and expansion into new areas, such as D2C consumer products, will require us to make significant capital investments in our business, as we plan to employ an “asset light” business model and rely on third party manufacturers and other outsourced third party relationships as we build this part of our business.

 

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our cash and cash equivalents balance was $25.3 million, and $2.3 million, respectively. Cash and cash equivalents consist of interest-bearing deposit accounts managed by third-party financial institutions, and highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less.

 

From March through June 2023, we issued $22.5 million in Notes, of which $22.5 million were received as of June 30, 2023, as part of a Permitted Financing under the Merger Agreement. The Notes are unsecured obligations and bear interest at a rate of 5% per annum, which interest will accrue and be added to the principal amount of the Notes. In July 2023, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, the Notes automatically converted into shares of PSQ Common Stock immediately prior to completion of the Business Combination at a conversion rate based upon an implied $100 million fully diluted pre-money valuation of Private PSQ, excluding the Notes. Upon such conversion and before giving effect to the Merger, the shares of Private PSQ Common Stock issued in respect of the aggregate balances under all Notes represented approximately 18.4% of the total outstanding shares of Private PSQ Common Stock. The Notes were issued in a private placement transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

In conjunction with the consummation of the Business Combination, we received proceeds totaling $34,938,880 in July 2023, after giving effect to Colombier’s stockholder redemptions and before payment of transaction expenses, which will be utilized to fund our operations and growth plans. To the extent our Warrants are exercised for cash, we will receive up to an aggregate of approximately $131.7 million from the exercises thereof. On November 13, 2023, the closing price of the Class A Common Stock as reported by the NYSE was $6.78 per share, which price was less than the $11.50 per share exercise price of the Warrants. There can be no assurance that the trading price of our Class A Common Stock will exceed the exercise price per share of the Warrants after the date of this report and prior to their expiration. Until such time occurs, holders of our Warrants are less likely to exercise their Warrants for cash. In considering our capital requirements and sources of liquidity, we have not assumed or relied on the receipt of any proceeds from potential future exercises of the Warrants. We believe that as a result of the Business Combination our existing cash and short-term investments, as well as proceeds received from the Business Combination, will be sufficient to fund operations and capital needs for at least one year from the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2023.

 

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our revenue growth rate, the timing and extent of spending by us to support further sales and marketing and research and development efforts, the degree to which we are successful in launching new business initiatives such as our contemplated e-commerce and D2C business initiatives and the cost associated with these initiatives, and the growth of our business generally. In order to finance these opportunities and associated costs, it is possible that we will need to raise additional financing if the proceeds realized by us from the Merger are insufficient to support our business needs. While we believe that the proceeds realized by us through the Merger will be sufficient to meet our currently contemplated business needs, we cannot assure you that this will be the case. If additional financing is required by us from outside sources, we may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital on acceptable terms when needed, our business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

 

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $12.3 million compared to $4.2 million used in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in cash used in operating activities was due to an overall increase in operating expenses, resulting in an increased net loss of $42.9 million (which includes the change in fair value of Notes of $14.6 million, and change in fair value of the warrants of $7.8 million). This was offset with an increase in non-cash expenses of $1.5 for amortization and depreciation and share based compensation of $2.1 million. Also offsetting this was an increase in cash provided by operating assets and liabilities of $9.4 million.

 

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

 

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $1.9 million, an increase of $0.8 million from cash used in investing activities of $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due additional costs incurred with the internally developed software (the gross capitalized software development costs included in intangible assets as of September 30, 2023 were $4.0 million).

 

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

 

Net cash provided by financing activities for nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $37.1 million compared to $5.4 million provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to $22.5 million of proceeds from the issuance of Notes, $18.1 million of proceeds from the reverse recapitalization and $2.6 million of proceeds from the issuance of Private PSQ Common Stock, offset by transaction costs of $6.1 million.

 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The non-GAAP financial measures below have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP and should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as indicators of our operating performance, liquidity or cash flows generated by operating, investing and financing activities, as there may be significant factors or trends that they fail to address. We caution investors that non-GAAP financial information, by its nature, departs from traditional accounting conventions. Therefore, its use can make it difficult to compare our current results with our results from other reporting periods and with the results of other companies.

 

Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, as an integral part of managing our business and to, among other things: (i) monitor and evaluate the performance of our business operations and financial performance; (ii) facilitate internal comparisons of the historical operating performance of our business operations; (iii) facilitate external comparisons of the results of our overall business to the historical operating performance of other companies that may have different capital structures and debt levels; (iv) review and assess the operating performance of our management team; (v) analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future operating investments; and (vi) plan for and prepare future annual operating budgets and determine appropriate levels of operating investments.

Adjusted EBITDA

 

We define adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net earnings (loss) before interest and other expenses, net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted to exclude change in fair value of our financial instruments, other income (expense), net, transaction expenses and share-based compensation expense. We utilize adjusted EBITDA as an internal performance measure in the management of our operations because we believe the exclusion of these non-cash and non-recurring charges allow for a more relevant comparison of our results of operations to other companies in our industry. adjusted EBITDA should not be viewed as a substitute for net loss calculated in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define adjusted EBITDA differently.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Management Estimates

 

We prepare our financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements also requires we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by our management. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, balance sheet, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. We believe that the accounting policies discussed below are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving our management’s judgments and estimates. Critical accounting policies and estimates are those that we consider the most important to the portrayal of our balance sheet and results of operations because they require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain.

 

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in those financial statements and accompanying notes. Although we believe that the estimates we use are reasonable, due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making those estimates, actual results reported in future periods could differ from those estimates. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 3 to our Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three- and nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 included elsewhere in this report. Our critical accounting policies are described below.

Revenue Recognition

 

[1] Marketplace Revenues

 

Advertising services

 

Advertising revenue is generated by displaying ad products and services on the Company’s platform. Customers enter into advertising subscription arrangements. The Company recognizes revenues over-time as the ads are displayed over the subscription period so the Company is providing a service and the service is being consumed by the customer simultaneously over the period of service. In general, we report advertising revenue on a gross basis, since we control the advertising inventory before it is transferred to our customers. Our control is evidenced by our sole ability to monetize the advertising inventory before it is transferred to our customers.

 

The Company recognizes revenue from push notifications and email blasts at a point in time when delivered. Push notifications and email blasts are considered delivered when an ad is displayed to users. When a customer enters into an advertising subscription arrangement that includes push notifications and/or email blasts, the Company allocates a portion of the total consideration to the push notification and email blast performance obligations based on the residual approach.

 

[2] Brand Sales

 

Product Sales

 

The Company generates revenue through the sale of diapers and wipes to consumers by way of the Company’s website. The Company considers customer orders to be the contracts with the customer. There is a single performance obligation, which is the Company’s promise to transfer the Company’s product to customers based on specific payment and shipping terms in the arrangement. The entire transaction price is allocated to this single performance obligation. Product revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of the Company’s product, which occurs at shipment. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products.

 

The Company evaluated principal versus agent considerations to determine whether it is appropriate to record third-party logistics provider fees paid as an expense. Thes fees are recorded shipping and handling expenses within cost of goods sold and are not recorded as a reduction of revenue because the Company owns and controls all the goods before they are transferred to the customer. The Company can, at any time, direct the third-party logistics provider to return the Company’s inventories to any location specified by the Company. It is the Company’s responsibility to make any returns made by customers directly to logistic providers and the Company retains the back-end inventory risk. Further, the Company is subject to credit risk (i.e., credit card chargebacks), establishes prices of its products, fulfills the goods to the customer and can limit quantities or stop selling the goods at any time.

 

34

 

 

Product Returns

 

Consistent with industry practice, the Company generally offers customers a limited right of return for products purchased. The Company reviews its receivables quarterly and records a reserve, if necessary. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has not deemed it necessary to record a reserve.

 

Warrant Liabilities

 

The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including issued share purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic, ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815-40”). The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. The Company accounts for the Public Warrants (as defined in Note 9) and the Private Placement Warrants (collectively, with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40 under which the Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the Warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. The Warrants for periods where no observable traded price was available are valued using a binomial lattice model. For periods subsequent to the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units, the Public Warrant quoted market price will be used as the fair value as of each relevant date.

 

Share Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes an expense for share-based compensation awards based on the estimated fair value of the award on the date of grant.

 

The Company accounts for share-based compensation under the provisions of ASC Topic 718. As noted above, ASC Topic 718 requires that share-based payment transactions with employees and non-employees, in certain cases, be recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements based on their fair value. As of September 30, 2023 there were 3,115,989 units outstanding. At December 31, 2022, there were no board approved grants of share-based compensation awards.

 

Income Taxes

 

We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized by applying the statutory tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences between the financial reporting and tax filing bases of existing assets and liabilities are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.

 

We utilize a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain income tax positions (tax contingencies). The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. We make estimates, assumptions and judgments to determine its provision for income taxes and also for deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowances recorded against deferred tax assets. Actual future operating results and the underlying amount and type of income could differ materially from our estimates, assumptions and judgments thereby impacting its financial position and results of operations.

 

35

 

 

Emerging Growth Company Status

 

In April 2012, the JOBS Act was enacted. Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. Thus, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards and to adopt certain of the reduced disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies. As a result of the accounting standards election, we will not be subject to the same implementation timing for new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies which may make comparison of our financials to those of other public companies more difficult.

 

Implications of being a Smaller Reporting Company

 

Additionally, PSQ is a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements. PSQ will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (i) the market value of common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $250 million as of the end of that year’s second fiscal quarter (if PSQ’s annual revenues exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year), or (ii) The market value of common stock held by non-affiliates equals or exceeds $700 million as of the end of that year’s second fiscal quarter (if PSQ’s annual revenues did not exceed $100 million during such completed fiscal year). To the extent PSQ takes advantage of such reduced disclosure obligations, it may also make comparison of its financial statements with other public companies difficult or impossible.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

See Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 as well as Private PSQ’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

 

Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

 

None.

 

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

During the audit of the Private PSQ financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, its independent registered accounting firm noted deficiencies that constitute a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which remains as of September 30, 2023. We have taken and intend to continue to take steps to remediate this material weakness, including enlisting the help of external advisors to provide assistance in the areas of internal controls in the short term, and evaluating the longer-term resource needs of our accounting staff. These remediation measures will continue to be time consuming and costly, and place significant demands on our financial, accounting, and operational resources.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

36

 

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2023. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due solely to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. As a result, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented.

 

Management intends to implement remediation steps to improve our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we intend to expand and improve our review process for complex transactions. We plan to further improve this process by enhancing access to accounting literature, identification of third-party professionals with whom to consult regarding complex accounting applications, and consideration of additional staff with the requisite experience and training to supplement existing accounting professionals.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period from January 1, 2023 through September 30, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

None.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

As a result of closing of the Business Combination on July 19, 2023, the risk factors previously disclosed Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 no longer apply. For risk factors relating to our business following the Business Combination, please refer to the section “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-273830) initially filed with the SEC on August 9, 2023, as amended. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair the Company’s business or results of operations. We may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in the Company’s future filings with the SEC.

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities, Use of Proceeds, and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.

 

(a) During the quarter ended September 30, 2023, there were no unregistered sales of our securities that were not reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

(b) On June 11, 2021, Colombier consummated its initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) of 15,000,000 units consisting of one share of Colombier Class A Common Stock and one-third (1/3) of one public warrant (“Units”). The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit, generating total gross proceeds of $150,000,000. B. Riley Securities, Inc. acted as sole book-running manager, of the Initial Public Offering. The securities in the Initial Public Offering were registered under the Securities Act on registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-254492). The SEC declared the registration statements effective on June 8, 2021.

 

Simultaneous with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor consummated the private placement of an aggregate of 5,250,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating total proceeds of $5,250,000. Each whole Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The issuance was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

 

The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants are not transferable, assignable, or salable until after the completion of a business combination, subject to certain limited exceptions.

 

On July 1, 2021, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option in full, resulting in the sale of an additional 2,250,000 Units for gross proceeds of $22,500,000, less the underwriters’ discount of $450,000. In connection with the underwriters’ full exercise of their over-allotment option, the Company also consummated the sale of an additional 450,000 Private Placement Warrants at $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, generating total proceeds of $450,000. A total of $22,500,000 was deposited into the Trust Account, bringing the aggregate proceeds held in the Trust Account to $172,500,000.

 

Of the gross proceeds received from the Initial Public Offering, the exercise of the over-allotment option and the Private Placement Warrants, an aggregate of $150,000,000 was placed in the Trust Account.

 

We paid a total of $3,000,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions and $460,299 for other costs and expenses related to the Initial Public Offering.

 

For a description of the use of the proceeds generated in our Initial Public Offering, see Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

The consummation of the Business Combination resulted in gross proceeds of $176.1 million, reflecting use of proceeds to pay for redemptions to public stockholders.

 

The funds from the Business Combination were used for: (i) redemptions to public stockholders – reflected in the gross proceeds of the Business Combination; (ii) cash to balance sheet; and (iii) payment of fees and expenses. The direct and indirect fees and expenses incurred were approximately $33.7 million. As of July 19, 2023, we added $18.1 million as cash to our balance sheet.

b)Further, during the Term (defined below) hereof, if the Client conducts a capital markets financing or related activity (e.g., equity, debt or convertible securities to raise capital or facilitate a merger transaction) (a “Financing”), the Client shall engage Advisor as a consultant in connection with such Financing. Any such engagement shall be covered by a separate agreement between the Client and Advisor and shall include mutually agreed fees (and such other additional terms agreed to by the parties, including indemnification provisions); provided that the terms of any such engagement shall not be less favorable to Client than market terms for a similarly situated consultant in light of the circumstances; provided, however, Advisor understands that such engagement shall not be exclusive for Client, and Client may engage other advisors.

 

 

2)In connection with the Services to be provided hereunder, the Client will make available to Advisor all information in the possession or control of the Client that is reasonably necessary for Advisor to provide the Services hereunder. The Client understands and confirms that (a) Advisor will use public reports and other information provided by others, including information provided by the Client, other parties and their respective officers, employees, auditors, attorneys or other agents in performing the Services hereunder; and (b) Advisor does not assume responsibility for, and may rely without independent verification upon, the accuracy and completeness of any such information, solely for the purposes of rendering the Services under this Agreement. Advisor acknowledges and agrees that Client may elect to provide only information that Client deems relevant to Advisor’s engagement hereunder and that Client expressly disclaims suitability and completeness of such information for any other purpose.

 

3)Advisor and Client will concurrently enter into a Non-Disclosure Agreement (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), and hereby incorporate the terms of their Confidentiality Agreement into this Agreement; provided that Advisor shall use any Confidential Information disclosed to Advisor in connection with the services to be provided hereunder solely in connection with Advisor’s provision of the services.

 

4)The Client acknowledges that Advisor has been retained hereunder solely as an advisor to the Client, and not as an advisor to or agent of any other person, and that Advisor’s engagement hereunder is as an independent contractor and not in any other capacity including as a fiduciary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Omeed Malik acknowledges that as a director of the Board, he owes fiduciary duties to the Client under Delaware law. Any duties of Advisor arising out of its engagement pursuant to this Agreement shall be owed solely to the Client. The Client agrees that any information or advice provided by Advisor in connection with Advisor’s engagement hereunder is for the confidential use of the Client and may not be relied upon by any other person without Advisor’s prior written consent, which shall not unreasonably be withheld. The Client will not publicly disclose, summarize, excerpt from or otherwise refer to such information or advice, in any manner without Advisor’s prior written consent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, Client may disclose any information requested or required of it by any law, regulation, or order of a court, administrative agency, other governmental agency, or stock exchange; provided, to the extent practicable and permitted by law, Client will notify Advisor in advance of any such disclosure. Neither Advisor’s engagement hereunder, nor the delivery of any advice in connection with Advisor’s engagement hereunder, is intended to confer rights upon any persons not a party hereto (including security holders, employees, directors or creditors of the Client) as against Advisor, its affiliates or any of their respective representatives, directors, officers, employees or agents.

 

2

 

5)The Client acknowledges that it is not relying on the advice of Advisor for tax, legal, regulatory or accounting matters, it is seeking and will rely on the advice of its own professionals and advisors for such matters and it will make an independent analysis and decision regarding any transaction or other matter based upon such advice. In addition, the Client acknowledges that in no event shall Advisor act as an underwriter of any securities in connection with any transaction. Advisor may, with the prior written consent of Client, render the services hereunder through one or more of its affiliates.

 

6)The Client agrees to indemnify Advisor in accordance with Annex A hereto, the terms of which are incorporated into this Agreement in their entirety.

 

7)This Agreement will expire on the one (1)-year anniversary of the Effective Date hereof, unless earlier terminated by the Client or Advisor upon thirty (30) days written notice; provided, however, this Agreement may be extended by mutual written agreement of the Client and Advisor. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement, neither the Client nor Advisor shall have any liability or continuing obligation to the other party except for any fees accrued and expenses incurred (subject to Section 1) by Advisor prior to the date of such expiration or termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Section 1(c), Section 3, Section 4, Section 6, this Section 7, Section 8, Section 9, Section 10, Section 11 and Annex A hereto shall remain operative regardless of the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

 

8)The Client understands and acknowledges that Advisor or its affiliates may currently hold, or in the future may acquire, debt or equity securities (or other interests) issued by the Client or its affiliates. This Agreement imposes no obligation on Advisor or its affiliates to sell any such holdings in connection with this engagement. Advisor acknowledges that Client may disclose material non-public information to Advisor, and Advisor agrees to comply with all applicable laws, including insider trading laws, in connection with any such disclosure. The Client is aware that Advisor and/or its affiliates may currently or in the future (a) provide services to other parties with interests that conflict with the interests of the Client or (b) engage in transactions (as a principal or otherwise) that conflict with the interests of the Client. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Advisor represents to Client that as of the date hereof, in its good faith reasonable judgement, it is not aware of any actual conflict of interest with respect to Advisor’s engagement hereunder. During the Term of the engagement, Advisor will promptly disclose to the Client in writing any conflict of interest with respect to Advisor’s engagement of which Advisor becomes aware, taking into account any existing obligations of confidentiality; provided however, even if bound by confidentiality, Advisor shall remain obligated to divulge to Client the nature and scope of the conflict, without revealing the name of the party creating the conflict. Client may immediately terminate this Agreement if in its sole discretion it determines the conflict presents risk to the Client.

 

3

 

9)The Client acknowledges that Advisor may, at its option and expense and with the consent of the Client (not to be unreasonably withheld), place announcements and advertisements, in a form reasonably approved by the Client, describing Advisor’s role as an advisor to the Client and such other information as is publicly disclosed by Client; provided that in all cases such announcement or advertising shall comply with applicable law.

 

10)This Agreement (including Annex A and the Confidentiality Agreement) embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, such determination will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which will remain in full force and effect. No waiver, amendment or other modification of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by each party to be bound thereby. This Agreement may not be assigned by the Client without Advisor’s prior written consent. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Client, Advisor and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original instrument and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.

 

11)This Agreement and any claim, counterclaim, proceeding or dispute of any kind or nature whatsoever, directly or indirectly, arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement or Advisor’s engagement hereunder (a “Claim”), shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida (without giving regard to any otherwise applicable conflict of laws rules). No such Claim shall be commenced, prosecuted or continued in any forum other than the courts of the State of Florida located in the City of West Palm Beach and Palm Beach County or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, which courts shall have exclusive jurisdiction over the adjudication of such matters, and each of the parties (on behalf of itself and its respective successors and assigns) hereto hereby submits to the jurisdiction and venue of such courts (and any appellate courts from any thereof) and personal service with respect thereto. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns any and all right to argue that the choice of forum provision is or has become unreasonable in any legal proceeding. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives all right to trial by jury in any Claim (whether based upon contract, tort or otherwise) directly or indirectly, arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement or Advisor’s engagement hereunder.

Annex A

 

In connection with the engagement of Advisor to render services to the Client pursuant to the Agreement to which this Annex A is attached, the Client and Advisor agree and understand that in the event that Advisor, any of its affiliates or any of their respective representatives, directors, officers, employees or agents (each of the foregoing, an “Indemnified Person”) become involved in any capacity in any claim, suit, action, proceeding, arbitration or investigation (each an “Action”) brought or threatened by or against any person, including the Client’s security holders and creditors, substantially related to, arising out of or in connection with Advisor’s engagement or Advisor’s performance of any services in connection with the Agreement (whether before or after the date hereof), the Client will promptly reimburse each such Indemnified Person for its reasonable, documented and customary out-of-pocket expenses (including legal and other professional fees, expenses and disbursements and the cost of any investigation and preparation) as and when they are incurred in connection therewith. The Client will indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (collectively, “Losses”) to which any Indemnified Person may become subject in connection with any pending or threatened Action substantially related to, arising out of or in connection with Advisor’s engagement pursuant to the Agreement or Advisor’s performance of any services in connection therewith (whether before or after the date thereof), whether or not any such pending or threatened Action giving rise to such Losses is initiated or brought by or on the Client’s behalf and whether or not in connection with any Action in which the Client or an Indemnified Person is a party, except to the extent that any such Losses are found by a court of competent jurisdiction, or acknowledged or admitted by such Indemnified Person, to have resulted from such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or from such Indemnified Person’s material violation or material breach of the Agreement. The Client also agrees that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Client, its security holders or creditors substantially arising out of Advisor’s engagement pursuant to the Agreement or Advisor’s performance of any services in connection therewith (whether before or after the date thereof), except to the extent that any Losses are found by a court of competent jurisdiction, or acknowledged or admitted by such Indemnified Person to have resulted from such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or from such Indemnified Person’s material violation or material breach of the Agreement.

 

If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient to hold such Indemnified Person harmless against Losses (except to the extent not available under the terms of the preceding paragraph), then the Client shall contribute to the Losses for which such indemnification is unavailable or insufficient in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received, or sought to be received, by the Client and its security holders, on the one hand, and the party entitled to contribution, on the other hand, in the matters contemplated by Advisor’s engagement under the Agreement as well as the relative fault of the Client and such party with respect to such Losses and any other relevant equitable considerations.

 

6

 

The Client agrees that, for the purposes hereof, the relative benefits received, or sought to be received, by the Client (and its security holders) and Advisor shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as (a) in the case of a transaction, the aggregate consideration paid or received, or contemplated to be paid or received, by the Client or its security holders, as the case may be, pursuant to such transaction (whether or not consummated) or, in the case of another event, the value to the Client of the services and advice rendered by Advisor, bears to (b) the fees paid or payable to Advisor in connection with Advisor’s engagement; provided, however, in no event shall Advisor or any other Indemnified Person be required to contribute an aggregate amount in excess of the aggregate fees paid or payable to Advisor in connection with Advisor’s engagement pursuant to the Agreement except to the extent of an Indemnified Person’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, in which case there shall be no such contribution limit. The Client and Advisor agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution hereunder were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein.

 

If any Action shall be brought, threatened or asserted against an Indemnified Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Client, Advisor shall promptly notify the Client in writing, and the Client shall be entitled, at its expense, and upon delivery of written notice to Advisor, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Advisor. Such Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (a) the Client has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (b) the Client has failed to assume the defense in a timely manner or pursue the defense reasonably diligently or (c) outside counsel to an Indemnified Person has advised such Indemnified Person that in such Action there is an actual or potential conflict of interest or a conflict on any material issue between the Client’s position and the position of such Indemnified Person, in which case the Client shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of such separate counsel. It is understood, however, that in the situation in which the Client shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of such counsel, the Client shall, in connection with any such Action or separate but substantially similar or related Actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of substantially similar general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of only one counsel (in addition to local counsel) at any time for all Indemnified Persons (unless in the reasonable belief of such Indemnified Persons based on the advice of outside counsel, that there is an actual or potential conflict of interest or a conflict on any material issue between of such Indemnified Persons, in which case such Indemnified Persons with conflicting interests shall be represented by separate counsel and the Client shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of such counsel). The Client shall not be liable for any settlement or compromise of any pending or threatened Action (or for any related Losses) if such settlement or compromise is effected without the Client’s prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

 

7

 

The Client agrees that, without Advisor’s prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), it will not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened Action in respect of which indemnification or contribution is reasonably likely to be sought hereunder (whether or not Advisor or any other Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party to such Action), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (a) includes an unconditional release from the settling, compromising or consenting party of each Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such Action, (b) shall not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person, and (c) shall not impose any continuing obligations or restrictions on any Indemnified Person.

 

Each Indemnified Person shall be severally obligated to refund or return any and all amounts paid by Client to the extent such Indemnified Person is not entitled to payment of such amounts in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

The foregoing reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of the Client under this Annex A shall be in addition to any rights that an Indemnified Person may have at common law or otherwise, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Client and such Indemnified Person. The provisions of this Annex A shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any termination, modification or expiration of the Agreement.

Note 1 — Organization and Business Operations

 

PSQ Holdings, Inc. dba PublicSq. (“Publicsq.”, “PSQ”, “we”, “us”, “our”, and the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation headquartered in Florida. The Company operates the website and mobile application as PublicSq. The Company is a values-focused organization that provides other values-focused (patriotic, American made, etc.) small businesses with a platform to access consumers that are drawn to patriotic values. The Company generates revenue from advertising revenues.

 

In February 2023, the Company acquired the assets of EveryLife, Inc. (“EveryLife”) by way of a stock for stock exchange. Pursuant to that agreement, the Company acquired a brand name in exchange for 55,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. On July 13, 2023, the Company launched the brand and began generating revenue from sales of diapers and wipes from this operation.

 

Merger Agreement

 

On July 19, 2023 (the “Closing”), the Company consummated the Business Combination (as defined below), pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement dated February 27, 2023 with Colombier Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Colombier”), Colombier-Liberty Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Colombier (“Merger Sub”), and Colombier Sponsor, LLC (the “Sponsor”), a Delaware limited liability company, in its capacity as Purchaser Representative (the “Purchaser Representative”), and PSQ Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“PSQ”) (collectively the “Combined Company”).

 

At Closing, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and after giving effect to the redemptions of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Colombier (the “Colombier Class A Common Stock”) by public stockholders of Colombier: 

 

all options, convertible notes, warrants and other rights to subscribe for or purchase any capital stock of PSQ or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, or that otherwise conferred on the holder any right to acquire, any capital stock of PSQ which remained outstanding and had not been exercised or did not convert automatically into shares of PSQ Common Stock (as defined below) prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) were cancelled without consideration;

 

  each share of PSQ Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“PSQ Common Stock”), including shares of PSQ Common Stock issued upon conversion of outstanding convertible notes of PSQ that automatically converted into shares of PSQ Common Stock immediately prior to the completion of the Merger, in each case other than shares of PSQ Common Stock held by the CEO, was automatically converted into the right to receive 19.476836 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Class A Common Stock”); and

 

  each share of PSQ Common Stock held by the CEO was automatically converted into the right to receive 19.476836 shares of Class C Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (“Class C Common Stock” and, together with Class A Common Stock, “Company Common Stock”).

 

The Merger and the other transactions described in the Merger Agreement collectively herein are described as the “Business Combination”.

 

In addition to the right of holders’ of PSQ Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “PSQ Stockholders”) to receive Class A Common Stock or Class C Common Stock, as applicable, in the Merger, PSQ Stockholders and certain executive officers, employees and service providers of PSQ (the “Deemed Equity Holders” and, together with the PSQ Stockholders, the “Participating Equity Holders”) will be entitled to receive up to 3,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Earnout Shares”) in the event certain trading price-based metrics are satisfied during the five (5)-year period commencing on the date of the Closing and ending on the fifth anniversary thereof (the “Earnout Period”), or, if earlier, upon the occurrence of a change of control transaction (as defined in the Merger Agreement) during the Earnout Period with an implied per share price that exceeds the relevant trading price-based metrics. Specifically, Earnout Shares will be earned if one or more of the three (3) triggering events described below occurs:

 

in the event that, and upon the date during the Earnout Period on which, the volume-weighted average trading price of Class A Common Stock quoted on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (or such other exchange on which the shares of Class A Common Stock are then listed) for any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30) consecutive trading day period (the “Earnout Trading Price”) is greater than or equal to $12.50, the Participating Equity Holders will be entitled to receive an aggregate of 1,000,000 Earnout Shares;

 

in the event that, and upon the date during the Earnout Period on which, the Earnout Trading Price is greater than or equal to $15.00, the Participating Equity Holders will be entitled to receive an aggregate of 1,000,000 additional Earnout Shares; and

 

in the event that, and upon the date during the Earnout Period on which, the Earnout Trading Price is greater than or equal to $17.50, the Participating Equity Holders will be entitled to receive an aggregate of 1,000,000 additional Earnout Shares.

 

Each share of the Company’s Class C Common Stock entitles its holder, initially the CEO, to a number of votes per share (rounded up to the nearest whole number) equal to (a) the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock entitled to vote on the applicable matter as of the applicable record date plus 100, divided by (b) the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Class C Common Stock (the “Per Share Class C Voting Power”). As of the Closing Date, as a result of his ownership of 100% of the outstanding Class C Common Stock, the CEO has approximately 52.62% of the voting power of the Company, and the result of most matters to be voted upon by the Company’s stockholders will be controlled by the CEO, who can base his vote upon his best judgment and his fiduciary duties to PSQ stockholders. Each share of Class C Common Stock held by the CEO may be converted by the CEO at any time into one (1) share of Class A Common Stock.

 

Additionally, on the Closing Date, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, Colombier changed its name from Colombier Acquisition Corp. to PSQ Holdings, Inc.

 

PSQ has been determined to be the accounting acquirer based on evaluation of the following facts and circumstances:

 

PSQ’s existing stockholders will have the ability to control decisions regarding election and removal of directors and officers of the Combined Company;

 

PSQ is the larger entity in terms of substantive operations and employee base;

 

PSQ will comprise the ongoing operations of the Combined Company; and

 

PSQ’s existing senior management will be the senior management of the Combined Company.

 

Accordingly, the Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Under this method of accounting, although Colombier acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of PSQ in the Business Combination, Colombier was treated as the “acquired” company and PSQ was treated as the accounting acquirer for financial statement reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of PSQ issuing stock for the net assets of Colombier, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Colombier were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination will be those of PSQ.

Note 2 — Liquidity

 

Historically, the Company’s primary sources of liquidity have been funds from financing activities. The Company reported net losses of $47,647,611 and $4,756,056 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and had negative cash flows from operations of $12,274,951 and $4,217,078 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had aggregate cash and cash equivalents of $25,255,909 and net working capital of $27,147,810. In conjunction with the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company received proceeds totaling $34,938,880 in July 2023, after giving effect to Colombier’s stockholder redemptions and before payment of transaction expenses, which will be utilized to fund operations and the Company’s growth plans. The Company believes that as a result of the Business Combination its existing cash and cash equivalents, as well as proceeds received from the Business Combination, will be sufficient to fund operations and capital needs for the next year from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

 

The Company’s future capital requirements will depend on many factors including the Company’s revenue growth rate, the timing and extent of spending to support further sales and marketing and research and development efforts. In order to finance these opportunities, the Company may need to raise additional financing. While there can be no assurances, the Company may need to pursue issuances of additional equity raises and debt rounds of financing. If additional financing is required from outside sources, the Company may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital when desired, the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023.

 

As a result, all significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2022 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all disclosures, including notes, required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are adjusted to reflect actual experience when necessary. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, intangible assets, estimation of contingencies, recoverability of deferred tax assets, the incremental borrowing rate applied to lease accounting, valuation of earn out liabilities and warrant liabilities, and estimation of income taxes. Actual results may differ from our estimates.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

The Company computes basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. All securities that meet the definition of a participating security, irrespective of whether the securities are convertible, nonconvertible, or potential common stock securities, shall be included in the computation of basic EPS using the two-class method. However, when the different classes of units have identical rights and privileges except voting rights, whereby they share equally in dividends and residual net assets on a per unit basis, the classes can be combined and presented as one class for EPS purposes. As such, the Company has combined the Class A and Class C Common stock for purposes of the EPS calculation.

 

Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding. During the periods when they are anti-dilutive, common stock equivalents, if any, are not considered in the computation. As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and Warrants were not considered in the computation as they are anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2022, there were no anti-dilutive shares or common stock equivalents outstanding.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

[1] Marketplace Revenues

 

Advertising services

 

Advertising revenue is generated by displaying ad products and services on the Company’s platform. Customers enter into advertising subscription arrangements. The Company recognizes revenues over-time as the ads are displayed over the subscription period so the Company is providing a service and the service is being consumed by the customer simultaneously over the period of service. In general, we report advertising revenue on a gross basis, since we control the advertising inventory before it is transferred to our customers. Our control is evidenced by our sole ability to monetize the advertising inventory before it is transferred to our customers.

 

The Company recognizes revenue from push notifications and email blasts at a point in time when delivered. Push notifications and email blasts are considered delivered when an ad is displayed to users. When a customer enters into an advertising subscription arrangement that includes push notifications and/or email blasts, the Company allocates a portion of the total consideration to the push notification and email blast performance obligations based on the residual approach.

 

[2] Brand Sales

 

Product sales

 

The Company generates revenue through the sale of diapers and wipes to consumers by way of the Company’s website. The Company considers customer orders to be the contracts with the customer. There is a single performance obligation, which is the Company’s promise to transfer the Company’s product to customers based on specific payment and shipping terms in the arrangement. The entire transaction price is allocated to this single performance obligation. Product revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of the Company’s product, which occurs at shipment. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products.

 

The Company evaluated principal versus agent considerations to determine whether it is appropriate to record third-party logistics provider fees paid as an expense. Thes fees are recorded shipping and handling expenses within cost of goods sold and are not recorded as a reduction of revenue because the Company owns and controls all the goods before they are transferred to the customer. The Company can, at any time, direct the third-party logistics provider to return the Company’s inventories to any location specified by the Company. It is the Company’s responsibility to make any returns made by customers directly to logistic providers and the Company retains the back-end inventory risk. Further, the Company is subject to credit risk (i.e., credit card chargebacks), establishes prices of its products, fulfills the goods to the customer and can limit quantities or stop selling the goods at any time.

 

Product Returns

 

Consistent with industry practice, the Company generally offers customers a limited right of return for products purchased. The Company reviews its receivables quarterly and records a reserve, if necessary. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has not deemed it necessary to record a reserve.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of 90 days or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company maintains cash accounts with financial institutions. At times, balances in these accounts may exceed federally insured limits. No losses have been incurred to date on any deposits.

 

Warrant Liabilities

 

The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including issued share purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic, ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815-40”). The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. The Company accounts for the Public Warrants (as defined in Note 9) and the Private Placement Warrants (collectively, with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40 under which the Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the Warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. The Warrants for periods where no observable traded price was available are valued using a binomial lattice model. For the Public Warrants, quoted market price will be used as the fair value as of each relevant date.

 

Business Combinations

 

The Company evaluates whether acquired net assets should be accounted for as a business combination or an asset acquisition by first applying a screen test to determine whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. If so, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition. If not, the Company applies its judgement to determine whether the acquired net assets meets the definition of a business by considering if the set includes an acquired input, process, and the ability to create outputs.

 

The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method when it has obtained control. The Company measures goodwill as the fair value of the consideration transferred including the fair value of any non-controlling interest recognized, less the net recognized amount of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, all measured at their fair value as of the acquisition date. Transaction costs, other than those associated with the issuance of debt or equity securities, that the Company incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred.

 

Any contingent consideration (“Earn-out liabilities”) is measured at fair value at the acquisition date. For contingent consideration that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, such contingent consideration are required to be recorded at their initial fair value at the acquisition date, and on each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of liability-classified contingent consideration are recognized on the consolidated statements of operations in the period of change.

 

When the initial accounting for a business combination has not been finalized by the end of the reporting period in which the transaction occurs, the Company reports provisional amounts. Provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period, which does not exceed one year from the acquisition date. These adjustments, or recognition of additional assets or liabilities, reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognized at that date.

 

Inventory

 

Inventories consist primarily of finished goods such as diapers and wipes. Inventories are stated at lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is measured by using an adjusted standard cost method which approximates FIFO (first in, first out). The net realizable value of the Company’s inventory is estimated based on current and forecasted demand, and market conditions. The allowance for excess and obsolete inventory requires management to make assumptions and to apply judgment regarding a number of factors, including estimates applying past and projected sales performance to current inventory levels. As of September 30, 2023, no reserve for inventory has been recorded.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets consist of purchased technology and brand name that were acquired through an acquisition and are amortized on a straight-line basis over useful lives ranging from 1 to 15 years. The Company reviews the recoverability of its intangible assets by comparing the carrying value of such assets to the related undiscounted value of the projected cash flows associated with the assets, or asset group. If the carrying value is found to be greater, the Company records an impairment loss for the excess of book value over fair value. No impairment of the Company’s intangible assets was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022.

 

Capitalized Software

 

The Company capitalizes costs related to the development of its internal accounting software and certain projects for internal use in accordance with ASC 350 - Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. The Company capitalizes costs to develop its mobile application and website when preliminary development efforts are successfully completed, management has authorized and committed project funding, and it is probable that the project will be completed, and the software will be used as intended. Costs incurred during the preliminary planning and evaluation stage of the project and during the post implementation operational stage, including maintenance, are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred for enhancements that are expected to result in additional functionality are capitalized and expensed over the estimated useful life of the upgrades on a per project basis. Amortization is computed on an individual product basis over the estimated economic life of the product using the straight-line method. Software development costs expensed and not capitalized, which are included in research and development expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations, were $80,244 and $34,776 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and $1,015,540 and $139,199 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively. The gross capitalized software development costs included in intangible assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, were $4,016,771 and $2,177,053, respectively.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company reviews long-lived assets, including intangible, capitalized software and lease assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured first by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are impaired, an impairment loss would be recognized based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset above the fair value of the asset.

 

Convertible Notes

 

The Company may enter into convertible notes, some of which contain, predominantly, fixed rate conversion features, whereby the outstanding principal and accrued interest may be converted by the holder, into common shares at a fixed discount to the market price of the common stock at the time of conversion. In this case, the convertible notes represent a financial instrument other than an outstanding share that embodies a conditional obligation that the issuer must or may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares. The Company records the convertible note liability at its fixed monetary amount by measuring and recording a premium, as applicable, on the convertible notes date with a charge to expense in accordance with ASC-480 - Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.

 

Leases

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. For leases where the Company is the lessee, right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the term of the lease and the lease liabilities represent an obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. The Company’s lease agreement contains rent escalation provisions, which are considered in determining the ROU assets and lease liabilities. The Company begins recognizing rent expense when the lessor makes the underlying asset available for use by the Company. Lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. Lease renewal periods are considered on a lease-by-lease basis in determining the lease term. The interest rate the Company uses to determine the present value of future lease payments is the Company’s incremental borrowing rate because the rate implicit in the Company’s leases is not readily determinable. The incremental borrowing rate is a hypothetical rate for collateralized borrowings in economic environments where the leased asset is located based on credit rating factors. The ROU asset is determined based on the lease liability initially established and adjusted for any prepaid lease payments and any lease incentives received. The lease term to calculate the ROU asset and related lease liability includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. Certain leases contain variable costs, such as common area maintenance, real estate taxes or other costs. Variable lease costs are expensed as incurred on the statements of operations.

 

Operating leases are included in the ROU assets and lease liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company has no finance leases.

 

Share Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes an expense for share-based compensation awards based on the estimated fair value of the award on the date of grant.

 

As of September 30, 2023 there were 3,115,989 RSUs outstanding. At December 31, 2022, there were no board approved grants of share-based compensation awards.

 

Research and Development

 

The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred, except for certain internal-use software development costs, which may be capitalized as noted above. Research and development expenses consist primarily of software development costs, including employee compensation and external contractors, associated with the ongoing development of the Company’s technology.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset, or the amount paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There is a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The Company classifies fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 — Inputs based on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3 — Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs are both unobservable for the asset and liability in the market and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

 

On February 23, 2023, the Company acquired the assets of EveryLife by way of a stock for stock exchange (See Note 5 “Asset Acquisition”). The assets acquired have been recorded at their relative fair value based on a valuation obtained by the Company using the market approach.

 

In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company establishes the fair value of its assets and liabilities using the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to measure fair value. The recorded amounts of certain financial instruments, including accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, debt at fixed interest rates, and other liabilities approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities.

 

The Company’s policy is to record transfers between levels, if any, as of the beginning of the fiscal year. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 no transfers between levels have been recognized.

  

Segment Reporting

 

Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company has determined that the Company has two reportable segments comprised of Marketplace and Brands.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has assessed the adoption impacts of recently issued accounting standards by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as well as material updates to previous assessments, if any, to the Company’s annual audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form S-4 for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Note 7 — Leases

 

Since inception, the Company has entered into three leases for office suites in California, two were short-term and one lease was long-term and expires in 2024. Termination of the lease is prohibited unless there is a violation under the lease agreement. The lease has escalating payments from $15,538 per month to $16,719 per month. In determining the length of the lease term, the Company determined there was no embedded extension option. At lease commencement date, the Company estimated the lease liability and the right-of-use assets at present value using the Company’s estimated incremental borrowing rate of 10.5%

 

Additionally, in October 2023, the Company has entered into a new sublease in Florida, which will become the new headquarters (see Note 15).

 

Rent expense under the operating leases included in the results of operations, inclusive of common area maintenance charges and real estate taxes, was $108,827 and $29,589 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively and $220,895 and $72,131 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Note 8 — Convertible Promissory Notes

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company issued convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) in the total amount of $22,500,000 that accrue interest at the rate of 5% per annum until converted or paid in full upon maturity being December 31, 2024.

 

As described in Note 1, on July 19, 2023, the Company consummated the Business Combination and became a publicly-traded company at which time the balance under each Note converted automatically into shares of PSQ Common Stock at a conversion price per share based upon an implied $100 million fully diluted pre-money valuation, excluding the Notes.

 

The Notes are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance under ASC 480-10-25-14, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the Notes are recognized as non-cash gains or losses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Note 9 — Warrant Liabilities

 

As part of Colombier’s initial public offering (“IPO”), Colombier issued warrants to third-party investors where each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share (the “Public Warrants”). Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, Colombier completed the private sale of warrants where each warrant allows the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at $11.50 per share. At September 30, 2023, there are 5,750,000 Public Warrants and 5,700,000 Private Placement warrants outstanding.

 

These warrants expire on the fifth anniversary of the Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation and are exercisable commencing 30 days after the Business Combination, provided that the Company has an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to them is available (or the Company permits holders to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis under the circumstances specified in the warrant agreement) and registered, qualified or exempt from registration under the securities, or blue sky, laws of the state of residence of the holder.

 

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:

 

in whole and not in part;

 

at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

 

upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption given after the warrants become exercisable to each warrant holder; and

 

if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing once the warrants become exercisable and ending three business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

 

The Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants are recognized as derivative liabilities in accordance with ASC 815. Accordingly, the Company recognized the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value as of the Closing Date, with an offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital and adjusts the carrying value of the instruments to fair value through other income (expense) on the condensed consolidated statement of operations at each reporting period until they are exercised. As of September 30, 2023, the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants are presented within warrants on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Share Based Compensation

Note 11 — Share Based Compensation

 

On July 25, 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the PSQ Holdings, Inc. 2023 Stock Incentive Plan as well as the 2023 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, whereby it may grant to certain employees, consultants and advisors an award, such as (a) incentive stock options, (b) non-qualified stock options, (c) restricted stock and (d) RSUs, of the Company.

 

2023 Stock incentive plan

 

Awards may be made under the Plan for up to such number of shares of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Class A Common Stock”) as is equal to the sum of:

 

(A) a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the outstanding shares of all classes of Company common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Company Common Stock”), determined immediately following the closing of the Merger Agreement.

 

(B) an annual increase to be added on the first day of each fiscal year, commencing on January 1, 2024 and continuing for each fiscal year until, and including, January 1, 2033, equal to the lesser of (i) 1% of the outstanding shares of all classes of Company Common Stock on such date and (ii) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock determined by the Board.

 

2023 Employee Stock Purchase plan

 

The purpose of this plan is to provide eligible employees opportunities to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. For this purpose, the Board approved 600,000 shares of Class A Common stock, plus an annual increase to be added on the first day of each fiscal year, commencing on January 1, 2024 and continuing for each fiscal year until, and including, January 1, 2033, equal to the least of (i) 425,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, (ii) 1% of the outstanding shares of all classes of Company common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, on such date and (iii) a number of shares of Class A Common Stock determined by the Board.

 

Restricted Stock Units

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company issued RSU’s under the 2023 Stock Incentive Plan to employees, advisors, and board of directors. Each RSU entitles the recipient to one share of our common stock upon vesting. The Company measures the fair value of RSUs using the stock price on the date of grant.

 

Share-based compensation expense for RSUs is recorded ratably over their vesting period.

 

A summary of the activity with respect to, and status of, RSUs during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 is presented below:

As of September 30, 2023, unrecognized compensation cost related to the grant of RSUs was approximately $22.4 million. Unvested outstanding RSUs as of September 30, 2023 had a weighted average remaining vesting period of 3.0 years.

 

Share based compensation relating to earn-out

 

As more fully described in Note 1, certain executive officers, employees and service providers of PSQ will be entitled to receive up to 3,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Earnout Shares”) in the event certain trading price-based metrics are satisfied during the five (5)-year period commencing on the date of the Closing and ending on the fifth anniversary thereof (the “Earnout Period”), or, if earlier, upon the occurrence of a change of control transaction (as defined in the Merger Agreement) during the Earnout Period with an implied per share price that exceeds the relevant trading price-based metrics.

 

In accordance with ASC 718, these are awards granted with a market condition. The effect of this market condition was reflected in the grant-date fair value of an award. The fair value of the earn-out shares was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation utilizing assumptions related to the contractual term of the instruments, estimated volatility of the price of the Common Stock and current interest rates. Below are the key assumptions used in valuing the earn-out shares:

 

   As of 9/30/2023 
PSQH Stock Price  $9.08 
Volatility   40%
Risk free rate of return   4.6%
Expected term (in years)   4.8 

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded $767,719 of share-based compensation expense, related to the earn-out shares.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded the following share-based compensation expense, related to RSUs and earn-out shares:

Segments

Note 13 — Segments

 

The Company routinely evaluates whether its operating and reportable segments continue to reflect the way the CODM evaluates the business. The determination is based on: (1) how the Company’s CODM evaluates the performance of the business, including resource allocation decisions, and (2) whether discrete financial information for each operating segment is available. The Company considers the chief executive officer to be its CODM.

 

As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s operating and reportable segments include:

 

Marketplace: PSQ has created a marketplace platform to access consumers that are drawn to patriotic values. The Company generates revenue from advertising revenues.

 

Brands: The first wholly-owned brand is EveryLife, Inc., which generates revenue from online sales of diapers and wipes

 

The CODM measures and evaluates the Company’s performance based on gross revenue and Segment Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”). Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings (loss) from operations less depreciation and amortization, share based compensation and transaction costs. Earnings (loss) from operations excludes interest, interest expense, (gain) loss on sale of equipment, change in fair value of financial instruments and other expenses. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of the Company’s business segments because it is the primary measure used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker to evaluate the performance of and allocate resources to the Company’s businesses.

 

Segment performance, as defined by the Company, is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies.

 

The following tables set forth the Company’s revenues, net and adjusted EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022:

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023.

As a result, all significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2022 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all disclosures, including notes, required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are adjusted to reflect actual experience when necessary. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, intangible assets, estimation of contingencies, recoverability of deferred tax assets, the incremental borrowing rate applied to lease accounting, valuation of earn out liabilities and warrant liabilities, and estimation of income taxes. Actual results may differ from our estimates.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The Company computes basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. All securities that meet the definition of a participating security, irrespective of whether the securities are convertible, nonconvertible, or potential common stock securities, shall be included in the computation of basic EPS using the two-class method. However, when the different classes of units have identical rights and privileges except voting rights, whereby they share equally in dividends and residual net assets on a per unit basis, the classes can be combined and presented as one class for EPS purposes. As such, the Company has combined the Class A and Class C Common stock for purposes of the EPS calculation.

Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding. During the periods when they are anti-dilutive, common stock equivalents, if any, are not considered in the computation. As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and Warrants were not considered in the computation as they are anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2022, there were no anti-dilutive shares or common stock equivalents outstanding.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

[1] Marketplace Revenues

Advertising services

Advertising revenue is generated by displaying ad products and services on the Company’s platform. Customers enter into advertising subscription arrangements. The Company recognizes revenues over-time as the ads are displayed over the subscription period so the Company is providing a service and the service is being consumed by the customer simultaneously over the period of service. In general, we report advertising revenue on a gross basis, since we control the advertising inventory before it is transferred to our customers. Our control is evidenced by our sole ability to monetize the advertising inventory before it is transferred to our customers.

The Company recognizes revenue from push notifications and email blasts at a point in time when delivered. Push notifications and email blasts are considered delivered when an ad is displayed to users. When a customer enters into an advertising subscription arrangement that includes push notifications and/or email blasts, the Company allocates a portion of the total consideration to the push notification and email blast performance obligations based on the residual approach.

[2] Brand Sales

Product sales

The Company generates revenue through the sale of diapers and wipes to consumers by way of the Company’s website. The Company considers customer orders to be the contracts with the customer. There is a single performance obligation, which is the Company’s promise to transfer the Company’s product to customers based on specific payment and shipping terms in the arrangement. The entire transaction price is allocated to this single performance obligation. Product revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of the Company’s product, which occurs at shipment. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products.

The Company evaluated principal versus agent considerations to determine whether it is appropriate to record third-party logistics provider fees paid as an expense. Thes fees are recorded shipping and handling expenses within cost of goods sold and are not recorded as a reduction of revenue because the Company owns and controls all the goods before they are transferred to the customer. The Company can, at any time, direct the third-party logistics provider to return the Company’s inventories to any location specified by the Company. It is the Company’s responsibility to make any returns made by customers directly to logistic providers and the Company retains the back-end inventory risk. Further, the Company is subject to credit risk (i.e., credit card chargebacks), establishes prices of its products, fulfills the goods to the customer and can limit quantities or stop selling the goods at any time.

Product Returns

Consistent with industry practice, the Company generally offers customers a limited right of return for products purchased. The Company reviews its receivables quarterly and records a reserve, if necessary. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has not deemed it necessary to record a reserve.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of 90 days or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company maintains cash accounts with financial institutions. At times, balances in these accounts may exceed federally insured limits. No losses have been incurred to date on any deposits.

Warrant Liabilities

Warrant Liabilities

The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including issued share purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic, ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815-40”). The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. The Company accounts for the Public Warrants (as defined in Note 9) and the Private Placement Warrants (collectively, with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40 under which the Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the Warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. The Warrants for periods where no observable traded price was available are valued using a binomial lattice model. For the Public Warrants, quoted market price will be used as the fair value as of each relevant date.

Business Combinations

Business Combinations

The Company evaluates whether acquired net assets should be accounted for as a business combination or an asset acquisition by first applying a screen test to determine whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. If so, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition. If not, the Company applies its judgement to determine whether the acquired net assets meets the definition of a business by considering if the set includes an acquired input, process, and the ability to create outputs.

The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method when it has obtained control. The Company measures goodwill as the fair value of the consideration transferred including the fair value of any non-controlling interest recognized, less the net recognized amount of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, all measured at their fair value as of the acquisition date. Transaction costs, other than those associated with the issuance of debt or equity securities, that the Company incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred.

Any contingent consideration (“Earn-out liabilities”) is measured at fair value at the acquisition date. For contingent consideration that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, such contingent consideration are required to be recorded at their initial fair value at the acquisition date, and on each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of liability-classified contingent consideration are recognized on the consolidated statements of operations in the period of change.

When the initial accounting for a business combination has not been finalized by the end of the reporting period in which the transaction occurs, the Company reports provisional amounts. Provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period, which does not exceed one year from the acquisition date. These adjustments, or recognition of additional assets or liabilities, reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognized at that date.

Inventory

Inventory

Inventories consist primarily of finished goods such as diapers and wipes. Inventories are stated at lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is measured by using an adjusted standard cost method which approximates FIFO (first in, first out).
Intangible Assets

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of purchased technology and brand name that were acquired through an acquisition and are amortized on a straight-line basis over useful lives ranging from 1 to 15 years. The Company reviews the recoverability of its intangible assets by comparing the carrying value of such assets to the related undiscounted value of the projected cash flows associated with the assets, or asset group. If the carrying value is found to be greater, the Company records an impairment loss for the excess of book value over fair value. No impairment of the Company’s intangible assets was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022.

 

Capitalized Software

Capitalized Software

The Company capitalizes costs related to the development of its internal accounting software and certain projects for internal use in accordance with ASC 350 - Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. The Company capitalizes costs to develop its mobile application and website when preliminary development efforts are successfully completed, management has authorized and committed project funding, and it is probable that the project will be completed, and the software will be used as intended. Costs incurred during the preliminary planning and evaluation stage of the project and during the post implementation operational stage, including maintenance, are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred for enhancements that are expected to result in additional functionality are capitalized and expensed over the estimated useful life of the upgrades on a per project basis. Amortization is computed on an individual product basis over the estimated economic life of the product using the straight-line method. Software development costs expensed and not capitalized, which are included in research and development expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations, were $80,244 and $34,776 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and $1,015,540 and $139,199 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively. The gross capitalized software development costs included in intangible assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, were $4,016,771 and $2,177,053, respectively.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets, including intangible, capitalized software and lease assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured first by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are impaired, an impairment loss would be recognized based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset above the fair value of the asset.

Convertible Notes

Convertible Notes

The Company may enter into convertible notes, some of which contain, predominantly, fixed rate conversion features, whereby the outstanding principal and accrued interest may be converted by the holder, into common shares at a fixed discount to the market price of the common stock at the time of conversion. In this case, the convertible notes represent a financial instrument other than an outstanding share that embodies a conditional obligation that the issuer must or may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares. The Company records the convertible note liability at its fixed monetary amount by measuring and recording a premium, as applicable, on the convertible notes date with a charge to expense in accordance with ASC-480 - Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.

Leases

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. For leases where the Company is the lessee, right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the term of the lease and the lease liabilities represent an obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. The Company’s lease agreement contains rent escalation provisions, which are considered in determining the ROU assets and lease liabilities. The Company begins recognizing rent expense when the lessor makes the underlying asset available for use by the Company. Lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. Lease renewal periods are considered on a lease-by-lease basis in determining the lease term. The interest rate the Company uses to determine the present value of future lease payments is the Company’s incremental borrowing rate because the rate implicit in the Company’s leases is not readily determinable. The incremental borrowing rate is a hypothetical rate for collateralized borrowings in economic environments where the leased asset is located based on credit rating factors. The ROU asset is determined based on the lease liability initially established and adjusted for any prepaid lease payments and any lease incentives received. The lease term to calculate the ROU asset and related lease liability includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. Certain leases contain variable costs, such as common area maintenance, real estate taxes or other costs. Variable lease costs are expensed as incurred on the statements of operations.

Operating leases are included in the ROU assets and lease liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company has no finance leases.

Share Based Compensation

Share Based Compensation

The Company recognizes an expense for share-based compensation awards based on the estimated fair value of the award on the date of grant.

As of September 30, 2023 there were 3,115,989 RSUs outstanding. At December 31, 2022, there were no board approved grants of share-based compensation awards.

Research and Development

Research and Development

The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred, except for certain internal-use software development costs, which may be capitalized as noted above. Research and development expenses consist primarily of software development costs, including employee compensation and external contractors, associated with the ongoing development of the Company’s technology.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset, or the amount paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There is a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The Company classifies fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 — Inputs based on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 — Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs are both unobservable for the asset and liability in the market and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

On February 23, 2023, the Company acquired the assets of EveryLife by way of a stock for stock exchange (See Note 5 “Asset Acquisition”). The assets acquired have been recorded at their relative fair value based on a valuation obtained by the Company using the market approach.

In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company establishes the fair value of its assets and liabilities using the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to measure fair value. The recorded amounts of certain financial instruments, including accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, debt at fixed interest rates, and other liabilities approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities.

The Company’s policy is to record transfers between levels, if any, as of the beginning of the fiscal year. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 no transfers between levels have been recognized.

Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting

Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company has determined that the Company has two reportable segments comprised of Marketplace and Brands.
