SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, which statements involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or our future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “shall,” “might,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern our expectations, strategy, plans, or intentions. Forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include, but are not limited to, statements about:

 

  ● the outcome of the class action litigation;
  ● recent resolutions with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the “CFTC”) against United States Oil Fund, L.P., United States Commodity Funds, LLC, a subsidiary of our subsidiary, USCF Investments, Inc. (“USCF Investments”) (f/k/a Wainwright Holdings), and other related parties, as disclosed under “Item 1. Legal Proceedings”;
  ● our future financial performance, including our revenue, cost of revenue, gross profit, gross margin, operating expenses, ability to generate positive cash flow, and ability to achieve and maintain profitability;
  ● the sufficiency of our cash and cash equivalents to meet our working capital, capital expenditure, and liquidity needs;
  ● our operating subsidiaries’ ability to attract and retain customers to use our products, to optimize the pricing for our products, to expand our sales to our customers, and to convince our existing customers to renew subscriptions;
  ● the evolution of technologies affecting our operating subsidiaries’ products and markets;
  ● our operating subsidiaries’ ability to innovate and provide a superior user experience and our intentions and strategy with respect thereto;
  ● our operating subsidiaries’ ability to successfully penetrate enterprise markets;
  ● our operating subsidiaries’ ability to successfully expand in our existing markets and into new markets, including international markets;
  ● the attraction and retention of key personnel;
  ● our ability to effectively manage our growth and future expenses;
  ● worldwide economic conditions, including aftereffects from the economic disruption imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the conflict in Israel, and the conflict in the Ukraine, and their impact on spending;
  ● our operating subsidiaries’ ability to comply with modified or new laws and regulations applying to our business, including privacy and data security regulations.

 

We caution you that the foregoing list does not contain all of the forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. We have based the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q primarily on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, operating results, and prospects. The outcome of the events described in these forward-looking statements is subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors described in the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2023, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or our registration statements filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Moreover, we and our subsidiaries operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We cannot assure you that the results, events, and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur, and actual results, events, or circumstances could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.

 

The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law. We and our subsidiaries may not actually achieve the plans, intentions, or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures, or investments we may make.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation and Accounting Principles

 

The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited financial statements on a consolidated basis. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, related statements of income and comprehensive income, and cash flows include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, necessary for their fair presentation, prepared on an accrual basis, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with information included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for year ended June 30, 2023 and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on September 25, 2023.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements, which are referred herein as the “Financial Statements”, include the accounts of The Marygold Companies and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, USCF Investments, Gourmet Foods, Brigadier, Original Sprout, Marygold and Marygold UK are presented on a consolidated basis.

 

All inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

9
 

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less on the date of purchase. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in financial institutions in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and New Zealand. Accounts in the United States are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000 per depositor, accounts in Canada are insured by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation up to CD$100,000 per depositor and accounts in the United Kingdom are insured by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme up to £85,000. Accounts in New Zealand are uninsured. The Company has, at times, held deposits in excess of insured amounts, but the Company does not expect any losses in such accounts.

 

Accounts Receivable, net and Accounts Receivable – Related Parties

 

Accounts receivable, net consist of receivables related to the Brigadier, Gourmet Foods and Original Sprout businesses. Management regularly reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes customer credit worthiness, customer concentrations, current economic trends, changes in customer payment patterns, and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future to determine whether or not an account should be deemed uncollectible. Reserves, if any, are recorded on a specific identification basis. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the Company had $213 and $1,427, respectively, reserved for as allowance for credit losses.

 

Accounts receivable – related parties consist of fund asset management fees receivable related to the USCF Investments business. Management fees receivable generally consist of one month of management fees which are collected in the month after they are earned. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, there is no allowance for credit losses as all amounts are deemed collectible.

 

Major Customers and Suppliers – Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Marygold Companies, as a holding company, operates through its wholly-owned subsidiaries and has no concentration of risk either from customers or suppliers as a stand-alone entity. Marygold, as a newly formed development stage entity, had not commenced operations for the year ended June 30, 2023. Any transactions that did occur were combined with those of The Marygold Companies for periods prior to June 30, 2023.

 

Our subsidiary USCF Investments relies on the revenues generated through the various funds it manages. The concentration of fund management revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and related receivables as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 were as follows:

 

   For the Three Months Ended   For the Three Months Ended

The Marygold Companies, through Gourmet Foods and its wholly owned subsidiary, Printstock Products Limited, has two major customer groups comprising gross revenues: 1) baking, and 2) printing. For the purpose of segment reporting (Note 16), both revenue streams are considered part of the same “food industry” segment as they are evaluated as one segment by the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker.

 

Baking: Within the baking sector there are three major customer groups; 1) grocery, 2) gasoline convenience stores, and 3) independent retailers. The grocery industry is dominated by several large chain operations, which are customers of Gourmet Foods, and there are no long-term guarantees that these major customers will continue to purchase products from Gourmet Foods, however, many of the existing relationships have been in place for sufficient time to give management reasonable confidence in their continuing business.

 

In the gasoline convenience store market customer group, Gourmet Foods supplies major consortiums of gasoline convenience stores who operate under various name brands.

 

The third major customer group is independent retailers and cafes, which collectively accounted for the balance of baking sales revenue. Although some customers contributed significant revenues to Gourmet Foods, no single customer contributed a significant amount of revenues to the consolidated Company for the three month periods ending September 30, 2023 and 2022. One customer did account for 10% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of September 30, 2023 and was insignificant as of June 30, 2023.

 

Printing: The printing sector of Gourmet Foods’ gross revenues is comprised of many customers, some large and some small, with no single customer accounting for a significant portion of the Company’s consolidated revenues. One customer accounted for 17% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of September 30, 2023 as compared to 12% as of June 30, 2023. One other customer accounted for 11% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023, however was insignificant as of September 30, 2023.

 

Gourmet Foods, including Printstock, is not dependent upon any one major supplier as many alternative sources are available in the local marketplace should the need arise. However, the unavailability of, or increase in price in, any of the ingredients on which Gourmet Foods relies to produce its products could harm its operating results for such period.

 

The Marygold Companies, through Brigadier, is partially dependent upon its contractual relationship with the alarm monitoring company who provides monitoring services to Brigadier’s customers. In the event this contract is terminated, Brigadier would be compelled to find an alternate source of alarm monitoring, or establish such a facility itself. Management believes that the contractual relationship is sustainable, and has been for many years, with alternate solutions available should the need arise. This monitoring company accounted for 12% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of September 30, 2023 and 11% at June 30, 2023. A customer accounted for 12% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023 and was insignificant as of September 30, 2023.

 

Brigadier purchases alarm panels, digital and analog cameras, mounting hardware and accessory items needed to complete security installations from a variety of sources. The manufacture of electronic items such as those sought by Brigadier has expanded to a global scale thus providing Brigadier with a broad choice of suppliers. Brigadier bases its vendor selection on several criteria including: price, availability, shipping costs, quality, suitability for purpose and the technical support of the manufacturer. Brigadier is not reliant on any one supplier.

 

The Marygold Companies, through Original Sprout, sells its products through 3 channels to market: 1) direct sales to end users via online shopping carts, 2) sales through international wholesale distributors who, in turn, sell to other retailers or wholesalers, and 3) to retail stores selling to end users either from the shelf or online. No single customer contributed significant sales revenues to the Company’s consolidated revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. No single customer contributed a significant amount to the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of September 30, 2023 or as of June 30, 2023.

 

11
 

 

The Marygold Companies, through Original Sprout, is dependent upon its relationships with product packaging companies who, at the direction of Original Sprout, produce the products in accordance with proprietary formulas, packages them in appropriate containers, and delivers the finished goods to Original Sprout for distribution to its customers. Original Sprout strives to maintain at least two packaging companies at all times, thus if one relationship were to fail the other would be able to continue to supply services. Because of the nature of the Original Sprout product ingredients, some of the ingredients may, at times, be difficult to source in timely fashion or at the expected price point. To safeguard against this possibility, Original Sprout endeavors to maintain at least a 90-day supply of all products in stock. Estimating and maintaining a reserve stock account is not a guarantee that a shortage of ingredient supplies will not affect production such that Original Sprout will not exhaust its reserves or be unable to fulfill customer orders.

 

The Marygold Companies, through Marygold UK and its wholly owned subsidiary, Tiger Financial and Asset Management (“Tiger”), identifies its concentration of risk as the reliance on a relatively small number of clients to continue their relationship with Tiger as their investment advisor. Tiger acts as an investment advisor and financial planner to its clients and has two principal revenue streams which comprise ongoing fees for providing investment advice, and commissions for the intermediation of insurance-based products. Tiger does not provide investment management services directly, rather the clients’ assets are referred to third party investment managers, primarily discretionary investment managers, and Tiger receives fees for the ongoing advice and financial planning services which are charged as a percentage of the assets under management. Should the relationship with the current investment manager come to an end, management is confident that a similar arrangement can be easily made with alternative investment managers. Tiger advises approximately 50 families/clients who collectively account for approximately $40 million in assets under management as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023. No single client accounted for a significant portion of the Company’s consolidated revenues. Marygold UK does not recognize any credit risk for accounts receivable. Marygold UK is seeking to further diversify its client base through ongoing outreach initiatives and, in the long term, add to its revenue streams through the development of the Marygold fintech app.

Inventories, consisting primarily of; (i) food products, printing supplies, and packaging in New Zealand, (ii) hair and skin care finished products and components in the U.S., (iii) security system hardware in Canada, and (iv) printed debit cards and wearables at Marygold are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventories in Canada and New Zealand are maintained on the first-in, first-out method, while inventory in the U.S is maintained using the average cost method. Inventories include product cost, inbound freight and warehousing costs where applicable. Management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value and an allowance is made for writing down the inventories to their net realizable value, if lower. An assessment is made at the end of each fiscal quarter to determine what slow-moving inventory items, if any, should be deemed obsolete and written down to their estimated net realizable value. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the expense for slow-moving or obsolete inventory was $0 and $0, respectively.

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; additions, renewals and leasehold improvements are capitalized. Office furniture and equipment include office fixtures, computers, printers and other office equipment plus software and applicable packaging designs. Leasehold improvements, which are included in plant and equipment, are depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the improvement and the length of the lease. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset (see Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

 

Category   Estimated Useful Life (in years)  
Building     39  
Plant and equipment:     5 to 10  
Furniture and office equipment     3 to 5  
Vehicles     3 to 5

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets consist of brand names, domain names, recipes, non-compete agreements and customer lists along with the internally developed software in process for the business applications of Marygold which launched in the latter part of June 2023, and the U.K. regulatory certification acquired by Marygold UK in the Tiger purchase transaction. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the estimated useful life and are evaluated for impairment at least on an annual basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. When it is determined that an indefinite intangible asset is impaired, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. There was no impairment recorded for the three month period ended September 30, 2023 or the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the aggregate purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination transaction. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter of the Company’s fiscal year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may be impaired. The Company first performs a qualitative test to determine if goodwill is impaired at a reporting unit. In performing this test, the Company evaluates macroeconomic factors, industry and market considerations, cost factors such as the increase in the cost of materials or labor or other costs, overall financial performance, changes in key personnel or customers or strategy, and other entity-specific events or trends that could indicate impairment, among other items. If the results of this test indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting is below its carrying value, a quantitative test is then performed to determine the amount of the impairment. When impaired, the carrying value of goodwill is written down to fair value. There was no impairment recorded for the three month period ended September 30, 2023 or the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company tests long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value. There was no impairment recorded for the three month period ended September 30, 2023 or the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

 

Investments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Equity securities included in short-term investments are classified as available-for-sale securities and debt securities are classified as trading securities. The Company measures the investments at fair value at period end with any changes in fair value reflected as unrealized gains or (losses) which is included as part of other (expense) income in the consolidated statements of income. The Company values its investments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurement. The changes to past practice resulting from the application of ASC 820 relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurement. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between: (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company (observable inputs) and (2) The Company’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available under the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The three levels defined by the ASC 820 hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 assets include the following: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market-corroborated inputs).

 

Level 3 – Unobservable pricing input at the measurement date for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs shall be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.

 

In some instances, the inputs used to measure fair value might fall within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest input level that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

 

The Company from time to time will issue warrant instruments to purchase common stock and accounts for warrant instruments as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the specific terms of the warrants and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). Generally, warrants issued in connection with debt and equity financings are presented as a component of equity unless the warrants include a conditional obligation to issue a variable number of shares among other conditions, or it is possible that the Company may need to settle the warrants in cash, in which instance the warrants would be accounted for as non-current liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 all outstanding warrants are classified as equity instruments.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock-based compensation expense is measured based on grant date at fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model for stock options and the grant date closing stock price for restricted stock awards. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting term of four to five years. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue consists of fees earned through management of investment funds in the United States and in the United Kingdom primarily based on assets under management (“AUM”), sales of gourmet meat pies and printing of food wrappers in New Zealand, sales of security alarm system installation and maintenance services in Canada, and sales of hair and skin care products internationally. Revenue is accounted for net of sales taxes, sales returns, and trade discounts. The performance obligation is satisfied when the product has been shipped and title, risk of loss and rewards of ownership have been transferred. For most of the Company’s product sales or services, the revenue recognition criteria described below are met at the time the product is shipped, the subscription period commences, or the management services are provided. For our Brigadier subsidiary in Canada, the Company operates under contract with an alarm monitoring company that pays a percentage of its recurring monitoring fee to Brigadier in exchange for continued customer service and support functions with respect to each customer maintained under contract by the monitoring company. The Company has no costs of contracts which require capitalization. The Company’s only contract assets are accounts receivable, net, and accounts receivable – related parties. The Company has no contract liabilities other than deposits received periodically which are insignificant to the consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company generates revenue, in part, through contractual monthly recurring fees received for providing ongoing customer support services to monitoring company clientele. The five-step process governing contract revenue reporting includes:

 

1. Identifying the contract(s) with customers

2. Identifying the performance obligations in the contract

3. Determining the transaction price

4. Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

5. Recognizing revenue when or as the performance obligation is satisfied

 

Transactions involve security systems that are sold outright to the customer where the Company’s performance obligations include customer support services and the sale and installation of the security systems. For such arrangements, the Company allocates a portion of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative stand-alone selling price. Revenue associated with the sale and installation of security systems is recognized once installation is complete, and is reflected as security system revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Revenue associated with customer support services is recognized as those services are provided, and is included as a component of security system revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, which for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, were approximately $73,422 and $82,960, or approximately 13% and 13%, respectively, of the total security system revenues. These revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 accounted for approximately 1% of total consolidated revenues. None of the other subsidiaries of the Company generate revenues from long-term contracts.

 

Because the Company has no contract with the end user, and the monthly payments for customer support services are made to the Company by the monitoring company who has a contract with the end user, and end user customers are subject to cancellation through no control of the Company; therefore, no deferred revenues or contingent liability reserves have been established with respect to these contracts. The services are deemed delivered as the obligation is acknowledged on a monthly basis.

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits or if future deductibility is uncertain.

 

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Applicable interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as additional income taxes in the statements of income.

 

Advertising Costs

 

The Company expenses the cost of advertising as incurred. Marketing and advertising costs for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 were $1.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

 

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

We record foreign currency translation adjustments and transaction gains and losses in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. The accounts of Gourmet Foods use the New Zealand dollar as the functional currency. The accounts of Brigadier Security System use the Canadian dollar as the functional currency, and the accounts of Marygold UK use the Great Britain pound as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date, and operating results are translated at the weighted average exchange rate throughout the period. Foreign currency transaction gains and (losses) can also occur if a transaction is settled in a currency other than the entity’s functional currency. Accumulated currency translation gains and (losses) are classified as an item of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the stockholders’ equity section of the consolidated balance sheet.

 

Segment Reporting

 

The Company defines operating segments as components for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performances. The Company allocates its resources and assesses the performance of its sales activities based on these segments (Refer to Note 16 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

 

Business Combinations

 

We allocate the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from acquired users, acquired trade names from a market participant perspective, useful lives and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which is one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and year ended June 30, 2023 a determination was made that no adjustments were necessary.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Board Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-10, and ASU 2019-11, which replace the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected credit loss model and require a financial asset measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The new guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022 (as amended by ASU 2019-10), including interim periods within that annual period. The Company adopted the standard during the quarter ending September 30, 2023 with the additional disclosures and no changes related to the period of recognition of losses on its receivables.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The amendment is meant to simplify the accounting for convertible instruments by removing certain separation models in subtopic 470-20 for convertible instruments. The amendment also changed the method used to calculate diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) for convertible instruments and for instruments that may be settled in cash. The amendment is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods for those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for periods beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company anticipates the adoption of the standard will not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures given its current and anticipated operations.

 

NOTE 3. BASIC AND DILUTED NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

 

Basic net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. This calculation includes Basic net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. This calculation includes the weighted average number of Series B Convertible Preferred shares outstanding also, as they are deemed to be substantially similar to the common shares and shareholders are entitled to the same liquidation and dividend rights. Diluted net income per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. As of September 30, 2023 there were 1,237,157 common stock equivalents which were anti-dilutive. During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, the dilutive effect of nonvested restricted stock awards results in approximately 29,200 incremental shares to be included in the diluted shares used in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The incremental diluted shares have no impact on earnings per share and have been omitted from the September 30, 2022 table presented below. As such, basic and diluted earnings per share were the same.

 

Basic and diluted net income per share reflects the effects of shares potentially issuable upon conversion of convertible preferred stock.

 

The components of basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows:

BRAND NAME

 

On August 11, 2015, the Company acquired Gourmet Foods, Ltd. The fair value on the acquired brand name was estimated to be $61,429 and is amortized over the remaining useful life of 10 years. On June 2, 2016, the Company acquired Brigadier. The fair value on the acquired brand name was estimated to be $340,694 and is amortized over the remaining useful life of 10 years. On December 18, 2017, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Kahnalytics, Inc., acquired the assets of Original Sprout LLC. The fair value of the acquired brand name was determined to be $740,000 and is considered to have an indefinite life. Unlike the brand names Gourmet Foods and Brigadier Security Systems, Original Sprout is an actual product name and recognized associated brand that is identifiable to consumers of the product and is the basis of the value proposition. That brand name will forever be associated with the product offering unless and until such time in the future as the Company may elect to discontinue the use of the brand and move towards establishment of an alternative product offering. On July 1, 2020, our wholly owned subsidiary, Gourmet Foods, Ltd., acquired Printstock Products Limited. The fair value of the brand name was determined to be $57,842 and, like that of Original Sprout, would continue to stay in use for an indefinite period of time. Therefore, the Company will test for impairment of the brand names “Original Sprout” and “Printstock” at each reporting interval with no amortization recognized. One June 20, 2022, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Marygold UK, Tiger Financial and Asset Management Limited. The fair value of the acquired trade name, $24,456, together with its regulatory business certification, $73,368, totaled $97,824 and, like those of Printstock and Original Sprout, would continue to stay in use for an indefinite period of time. Therefore, the Company will test for impairment at each reporting internal with no amortization recognized.

Stock-based Compensation

 

In August 2021, the Company adopted the 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (“the Equity Plan”) which provides for the grant of stock-based awards, including stock options, restricted stock awards (“RSA”) and restricted stock units (“RSU”), to employees and non-employees. A total of 5,000,000 shares of common stock are authorized for issuance under the Plan, of which 3,772,843 are available for future grants as of September 30, 2023.

 

The fair value of stock options are estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and recognized as compensation on a straight-line basis between the date of grant and the date the options become fully vested. During the three months ended September 30, 2023 the Company granted 240,881 stock options with a weighted average grant date fair value of $1.18 per share. Stock options issued have terms of ten years. The fair value of the options granted were estimated using the following assumptions:

 

   For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 
Expected volatility   166% - 197%
Expected term   6.4 years 
Risk-Free interest rate   3.5% - 4.1%
Weighted-average fair value per share of grants  $1.41 
Expected dividend yield   0%

Exercisable as of September 30, 2023   -   $-    -   $- 

 

The fair value of these options, calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, was determined to be $658,644 using the assumptions note above. The estimated aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercisable as of September 30, 2023 was $0. Stock-based compensation relating to stock options totaled $31,742 and $0 for the three months ending September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. As of September 30, 2023, there was a total of $578,671 of unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding stock options that will be recognized over a remaining weighted average period of 3.6 years.

Stock-based compensation relating to RSA’s totaled $61,888 and $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and are included in the condensed consolidated statements of income. As of September 30, 2023, there was $758,035 of unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding RSA’s that will be recognized over a remaining weighted average period of 3.4 years. Holders of RSA’s generally have the rights and privileges of a stockholder with respect to the shares of common stock granted to the holder, including the right to vote such shares and the right to receive dividends with respect to such shares. However, all cash and stock dividends and distributions shall be held back by the Company for the holder’s account until such time as the related portion of the restricted stock award vests (at which time such dividends or distributions, as applicable, shall be released and paid). The Company does not consider the shares of common stock associated with the RSA’s to be issued and outstanding until vesting occurs.

NOTE 13. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

 

On August 17, 2021, our wholly-owned subsidiary Marygold UK entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) to acquire all the issued and outstanding shares of Tiger Financial and Asset Management Limited (“Tiger”), a company incorporated and registered in England and Wales and located in Northampton, England. Tiger is an asset manager and investment advisor operating pursuant to certification by the Financial Conduct Authority of the United Kingdom with approximately £42 million in assets under management as of June 20, 2022. The transaction closed on June 20, 2022 with an agreed purchase price of £2,382,372 (translated to US$2,913,164), subject to adjustment as provided for in the SPA. As of June 30, 2022 approximately £1,018,935 (US$1,245,954) remained payable, £18,935 (US$23,154) of which was payable within 20 business days of closing, followed by subsequent equal payments of £500,000 due on December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023, subject to downward adjustment per the terms of the SPA for an amount up to £500,000 should existing clientele close their accounts prior to December 31, 2023. There is no provision for any upward adjustments. As a result, management was able to complete its preliminary purchase price allocation as follows, under the assumption no downward adjustment will take place on December 31, 2023.

NOTE 14. INCOME TAXES

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial statement reported amounts, and for net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company records a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such asset will not be realized. The Company continues to monitor the likelihood that it will be able to recover its deferred tax assets. If recovery is not likely, the Company must increase its provision for income taxes by recording a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets.

 

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with the authoritative guidance on income taxes under which the Company may only recognize or continue to recognize tax positions that meet a “more likely than not” threshold. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of the provision for income taxes.

 

As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s total unrecognized tax benefits were approximately $0.3 million, which would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. The Company will recognize interest and penalties, when they occur, related to uncertain tax positions as a component of tax expense. There is no interest or penalties to be recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022.

 

The Company is required to make its best estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year and use that rate to provide for income taxes on a current year-to-date basis. The Company recorded tax benefit (expense) of $303 thousand and ($226) thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate could fluctuate in the future due to changes in the taxable income mix between various jurisdictions.

 

The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal, various states, Canada and New Zealand tax jurisdictions. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the related tax laws and regulations and require significant judgment to apply. The Company’s U.S. tax years 2018 through 2022 will remain open for examination by the federal and state authorities which is three and four years, respectively. The Company’s tax years from 2018 through 2022 remain open for examination by Canada and New Zealand authorities. As of September 30, 2023, there were no active taxing authority examinations.

 

NOTE 15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Lease Commitments

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use assets, accrued expenses, and long-term operating lease liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. In determining the present value of lease payments, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date. The operating lease right-of-use assets also include any lease payments made at or before the commencement date and are reduced by any lease incentives received. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or not terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise any such options. For the majority of its leases, the Company concluded that it is not reasonably certain that any renewal options would be exercised, and, therefore, the amounts are not recognized as part of operating lease right-of-use assets nor operating lease liabilities. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and expensed as incurred and included within rent expense under general and administrative expense. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term.

 

The Company’s most significant operating leases are real estate leases of office, warehouse and production facilities. The remaining operating leases are primarily comprised of leases of printers and other equipment which are deemed insignificant. For all operating leases, the Company has elected the practical expedient permitted under Topic 842 to combine lease and non-lease components. As a result, non-lease components, such as common area or equipment maintenance charges, are accounted for as a single lease element.

 

25
 

 

The Company has one finance lease wherein ownership of the underlying asset will be transferred to the Company at the end of the lease term. The underlying asset of the finance lease is a solar energy system at our Gourmet Foods subsidiary in New Zealand that is included with property, plant and equipment on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

Fixed lease expense payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments vary because of changes in facts or circumstances occurring after the commencement date, other than the passage of time. Certain of the Company’s operating lease agreements include variable payments that are passed through by the landlord, such as insurance, taxes, and common area maintenance. Variable payments are deemed immaterial, expensed as incurred, and included within rent expense under general and administrative expense.

 

The Company leases various facilities and offices throughout the world including the following subsidiary locations:

 

Gourmet Foods has operating leases for its office, factory and warehouse facilities located in Tauranga, New Zealand, and facilities leased by its subsidiary, Printstock, in Napier, New Zealand, as well as for certain equipment including printers and copiers. These leases are generally for three-year terms, with some options to renew for an additional term. The leases mature between August 2024 and October 2026, and require monthly rental payments of approximately $22,843 (GST not included) translated to U.S. currency as of September 30, 2023. Additionally, Gourmet Foods has one finance lease for its solar energy system that ends in December 2031 at the monthly rate (GST not included) of approximately US$1,580 translated as of September 30, 2023. Brigadier leases office and storage facilities in Regina, Saskatchewan. The minimum lease obligations for the Regina facility require monthly payments of approximately US$2,427 translated to U.S. currency as of September 30, 2023. Original Sprout currently leases office and warehouse space in San Clemente, CA with 3-year facility lease expiring on November 30, 2023 and monthly lease payments of $23,625. USCF Investments leases office space in Walnut Creek, California under an operating lease which expires in December 2023. Minimum monthly lease payments are approximately $13,455 with increases annually.

 

For the three month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the combined lease costs, including insignificant variable and short-term lease costs, of the Company and its subsidiaries totaled $205,046 and $198,487, respectively, and recorded under general and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. As of September 30, 2023 the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets included operating lease right-of-use assets totaling $701,248 and $713,360 in total operating lease liabilities.

 

Future minimum consolidated lease payments for The Marygold Companies and its subsidiaries are as follows:

 

Year Ended June 30,  Operating Leases   Finance Lease

The weighted average remaining lease term for the Company’s operating leases was 2.91 years as of June 30, 2023 and a weighted-average discount rate of 5.49% was used to determine the total operating lease liabilities. The remaining lease term for the Company’s finance lease was 8.2 years as of September 30, 2023 with an annual interest rate of 6.99% and a present value discount of 28%.

 

Additionally, Gourmet Foods entered into a General Security Agreement in favor of the Gerald O’Leary Family Trust and registered on the Personal Property Securities Register for a priority sum of NZ$110,000 (approximately US$65,963) to secure the lease of its primary facility. In addition, a NZ$20,000 (approximately US$11,993) bond has been posted through ANZ Bank and secured with a cash deposit of equal amount to secure a separate facilities lease. The General Security Agreement and the cash deposit will remain until such time as the respective leases are satisfactorily terminated in accordance with their terms. Interest from the cash deposit securing the lease accumulates to the benefit of Gourmet Foods and is listed as a component of interest income/expense on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Other Agreements and Commitments

 

One of the funds, UNL managed by USCF, had expense waiver provisions during current and prior fiscal years, whereby USCF reimburses funds when fund expenditure levels exceed certain threshold amounts. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 the expense waiver payable for the UNL fund was $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively. USCF has no obligation to continue such payments for UNL into subsequent periods.

 

As Marygold builds out its application, it enters into agreements with various service providers. As of September 30, 2023, Marygold has future payment commitments with its primary service vendors totaling $1.5 million including approximately $1.1 million due during the remainder of fiscal 2024 and $0.4 million due in fiscal 2025.

Except as described below, there are no pending legal proceedings against the Company. USCF is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. USCF, as the general partner of the United States Oil Fund, LP (“USO”) and the general partner and sponsor of the related public funds may, from time to time, be involved in litigation arising out of its operations in the ordinary course of business.

Settlement of SEC and CFTC Investigations

 

On November 8, 2021, USCF and USO announced a resolution with each of the SEC and the CFTC relating to matters set forth in certain Wells Notices issued by the staffs of each of the SEC and CFTC as more fully described below.

 

On August 17, 2020, USCF, USO, and John Love received a “Wells Notice” from the staff of the SEC (the “SEC Wells Notice”). The SEC Wells Notice stated that the SEC staff made a preliminary determination to recommend that the SEC file an enforcement action against USCF, USO, and Mr. Love alleging violations of Sections 17(a)(1) and 17(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), and Rule 10b-5 thereunder.

 

Subsequently, on August 19, 2020, USCF, USO, and Mr. Love received a Wells Notice from the staff of the CFTC (the “CFTC Wells Notice”). The CFTC Wells Notice stated that the CFTC staff made a preliminary determination to recommend that the CFTC file an enforcement action against USCF, USO, and Mr. Love alleging violations of Sections 4o(1)(A) and (B) and 6(c)(1) of the Commodity Exchange Act of 1936, as amended (the “CEA”), 7 U.S.C. §§ 6o(1)(A) and (B) and 9(1) (2018), and CFTC Regulations 4.26, 4.41, and 180.1(a), 17 C.F.R. §§ 4.26, 4.41, 180.1(a) (2019).

 

On November 8, 2021, acting pursuant to an offer of settlement submitted by USCF and USO, the SEC issued an order instituting cease-and-desist proceedings, making findings, and imposing a cease-and-desist order pursuant to Section 8A of the 1933 Act, directing USCF and USO to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of Section 17(a)(3) of the 1933 Act, 15 U.S.C. § 77q(a)(3) (the SEC Order). In the SEC Order, the SEC made findings that, from April 24, 2020 to May 21, 2020, USCF and USO violated Section 17(a)(3) of 1933 Act, which provides that it is “unlawful for any person in the offer or sale of any securities to engage in any transaction, practice, or course of business which operates or would operate as a fraud or deceit upon the purchaser.” USCF and USO consented to entry of the SEC Order without admitting or denying the findings contained therein, except as to jurisdiction.

 

Separately, on November 8, 2021, acting pursuant to an offer of settlement submitted by USCF, the CFTC issued an order instituting cease-and-desist proceedings, making findings, and imposing a cease-and-desist order pursuant to Section 6(c) and (d) of the CEA, directing USCF to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of Section 4o(1)(B) of the CEA, 7 U.S.C. § 6o(1)(B), and CFTC Regulation 4.41(a)(2), 17 C.F.R. § 4.41(a)(2) (the “CFTC Order”). In the CFTC Order, the CFTC made findings that, from on or about April 22, 2020 to June 12, 2020, USCF violated Section 4o(1)(B) of the CEA and CFTC Regulation 4.41(a)(2), which make it unlawful for any commodity pool operator (“CPO”) to engage in “any transaction, practice, or course of business which operates as a fraud or deceit upon any client or participant or prospective client or participant” and prohibit a CPO from advertising in a manner which “operates as a fraud or deceit upon any client or participant or prospective client or participant,” respectively. USCF consented to entry of the CFTC Order without admitting or denying the findings contained therein, except as to jurisdiction.

 

Pursuant to the SEC Order and the CFTC Order, in addition to the command to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of Section 17(a)(3) of the 1933 Act, Section 4o(1)(B) of the CEA, and CFTC Regulation 4.14(a)(2), civil monetary penalties totaling two million five hundred thousand dollars ($2,500,000) in the aggregate were required to be paid to the SEC and CFTC, of which one million two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($1,250,000) was paid by USCF to each of the SEC and the CFTC, respectively, pursuant to the offsets permitted under the orders.

In re: United States Oil Fund, LP Securities Litigation

 

On June 19, 2020, USCF, USO, John P. Love, and Stuart P. Crumbaugh were named as defendants in a putative class action filed by purported shareholder Robert Lucas (the “Lucas Class Action”). The Court thereafter consolidated the Lucas Class Action with two related putative class actions filed on July 31, 2020 and August 13, 2020, and appointed a lead plaintiff. The consolidated class action is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York under the caption In re: United States Oil Fund, LP Securities Litigation, Civil Action No. 1:20-cv-04740.

 

On November 30, 2020, the lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint (the “Amended Lucas Class Complaint”). The Amended Lucas Class Complaint asserts claims under the 1933 Act, the Exchange Act, and Rule 10b-5. The Amended Lucas Class Complaint challenges statements in registration statements that became effective on February 25, 2020 and March 23, 2020 as well as subsequent public statements through April 2020 concerning certain extraordinary market conditions and the attendant risks that caused the demand for oil to fall precipitously, including the COVID-19 global pandemic and the Saudi Arabia-Russia oil price war. The Amended Lucas Class Complaint purports to have been brought by an investor in USO on behalf of a class of similarly-situated shareholders who purchased USO securities between February 25, 2020 and April 28, 2020 and pursuant to the challenged registration statements. The Amended Lucas Class Complaint seeks to certify a class and to award the class compensatory damages at an amount to be determined at trial as well as costs and attorney’s fees. The Amended Lucas Class Complaint named as defendants USCF, USO, John P. Love, Stuart P. Crumbaugh, Nicholas D. Gerber, Andrew F Ngim, Robert L. Nguyen, Peter M. Robinson, Gordon L. Ellis, and Malcolm R. Fobes III, as well as the marketing agent, ALPS Distributors, Inc., and the Authorized Participants: ABN Amro, BNP Paribas Securities Corporation, Citadel Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets, Inc., Credit Suisse Securities USA LLC, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Goldman Sachs & Company, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., Merrill Lynch Professional Clearing Corporation, Morgan Stanley & Company Inc., Nomura Securities International Inc., RBC Capital Markets LLC, SG Americas Securities LLC, UBS Securities LLC, and Virtu Financial BD LLC.

 

The lead plaintiff has filed a notice of voluntary dismissal of its claims against BNP Paribas Securities Corporation, Citadel Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Credit Suisse Securities USA LLC, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Morgan Stanley & Company, Inc., Nomura Securities International, Inc., RBC Capital Markets, LLC, SG Americas Securities LLC, and UBS Securities LLC.

 

USCF, USO, and the individual defendants in In re: United States Oil Fund, LP Securities Litigation intend to vigorously contest such claims and have moved for their dismissal. No accrual has been recorded with respect to the above legal matters as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023. We are currently unable to predict the timing or outcome of, or reasonably estimate the possible losses or range of, possible losses resulting from these matters. It is reasonably possible that this estimate will change in the near term. An adverse outcome regarding these matters could materially adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 

Mehan Action

 

On August 10, 2020, purported shareholder Darshan Mehan filed a derivative action on behalf of nominal defendant USO, against defendants USCF, John P. Love, Stuart P. Crumbaugh, Nicholas D. Gerber, Andrew F Ngim, Robert L. Nguyen, Peter M. Robinson, Gordon L. Ellis, and Malcolm R. Fobes, III (the “Mehan Action”). The action is pending in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Alameda as Case No. RG20070732.

 

The Mehan Action alleges that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to USO and failed to act in good faith in connection with a March 19, 2020 registration statement and offering and disclosures regarding certain extraordinary market conditions that caused demand for oil to fall precipitously, including the COVID-19 global pandemic and the Saudi Arabia-Russia oil price war. The complaint seeks, on behalf of USO, compensatory damages, restitution, equitable relief, attorney’s fees, and costs. All proceedings in the Mehan Action are stayed pending disposition of the motion(s) to dismiss in In re: United States Oil Fund, LP Securities Litigation.

 

USCF, USO, and the other defendants intend to vigorously contest such claims.

 

In re United States Oil Fund, LP Derivative Litigation

 

On August 27, 2020, purported shareholders Michael Cantrell and AML Pharm. Inc. DBA Golden International filed two separate derivative actions on behalf of nominal defendant USO, against defendants USCF, John P. Love, Stuart P. Crumbaugh, Andrew F Ngim, Gordon L. Ellis, Malcolm R. Fobes, III, Nicholas D. Gerber, Robert L. Nguyen, and Peter M. Robinson in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York at Civil Action No. 1:20-cv-06974 (the “Cantrell Action”) and Civil Action No. 1:20-cv-06981 (the “AML Action”), respectively.

 

28
 

 

The complaints in the Cantrell and AML Actions are nearly identical. They each allege violations of Sections 10(b), 20(a) and 21D of the Exchange Act, Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and common law claims of breach of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and waste of corporate assets. These allegations stem from USO’s disclosures and defendants’ alleged actions in light of the extraordinary market conditions in 2020 that caused demand for oil to fall precipitously, including the COVID-19 global pandemic and the Saudi Arabia-Russia oil price war. The complaints seek, on behalf of USO, compensatory damages, restitution, equitable relief, attorney’s fees, and costs. The plaintiffs in the Cantrell and AML Actions have marked their actions as related to the Lucas Class Action.

 

The Court consolidated the Cantrell and AML Actions under the caption In re United States Oil Fund, LP Derivative Litigation, Civil Action No. 1:20-cv-06974 and appointed co-lead counsel. All proceedings in In re United States Oil Fund, LP Derivative Litigation are stayed pending disposition of the motion(s) to dismiss in In re: United States Oil Fund, LP Securities Litigation.

 

USCF, USO, and the other defendants intend to vigorously contest the claims in In re United States Oil Fund, LP Derivative Litigation.

 

Optimum Strategies Action

 

On April 6, 2022, USO and USCF were named as defendants in an action filed by Optimum Strategies Fund I, LP, a purported investor in call option contracts on USO (the “Optimum Strategies Action”). The action was in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut at Civil Action No. 3:22-cv-00511.

 

The Optimum Strategies Action asserted claims under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and the Connecticut Uniform Securities Act (“CUSA”). It purported to challenge statements in registration statements that became effective in February 2020, March 2020, and on April 20, 2020, as well as public statements between February 2020 and May 2020, in connection with certain extraordinary market conditions and the attendant risks that caused the demand for oil to fall precipitously, including the COVID-19 global pandemic and the Saudi Arabia-Russia oil price war. The complaint was seeking damages, interest, costs, attorney’s fees, and equitable relief.

 

On March 15, 2023, the court granted the USO defendants’ motion to dismiss the complaint. In its ruling, the court granted the USO defendants’ motion to dismiss, with prejudice, the plaintiff’s claims under Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and a claim for control person liability under Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act. Having dismissed all claims over which the court had original jurisdiction, the court declined to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over the plaintiff’s state law claim under CUSA and dismissed the claim without prejudice. No notice of appeal was filed.

 

No accrual has been recorded with respect to the above legal matters as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023. We are currently unable to predict the timing or outcome of, or reasonably estimate the possible losses or range of, possible losses resulting from these matters. It is reasonably possible that this estimate will change in the near term. An adverse outcome regarding these matters could materially adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 

Retirement Plan

 

The Marygold Companies, through its wholly-owned subsidiary USCF, has a 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (“401K Plan”) covering U.S. employees, including Original Sprout and Marygold, who are over 21 years of age and who have completed a minimum of 1,000 hours of service and have worked for the respective Marygold Companies subsidiary for at least three months. Participants may make contributions pursuant to a salary reduction agreement. In addition, the 401K Plan makes a safe harbor matching contribution. Quarterly profit-sharing contributions paid totaled approximately $60 thousand and $42 thousand for each of the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

NOTE 16. SEGMENT REPORTING

 

With the acquisition of USCF Investments, Gourmet Foods, Brigadier, Tiger, the launch of the Original Sprout business unit of Kahnalytics, and the transition of Marygold to an operating company as of July 1, 2023, the Company has identified seven segments for its products and services; U.S.A. investment fund management, U.S.A. beauty products, New Zealand food industry, Canada security alarm systems, and Financial services. For clarity in segment reporting, the assets and results of operations of Marygold U.S.A. and Marygold U.K. are separated while they are combined on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as financial services. The Company’s reportable segments are business units located in different global regions. The Company’s operations in the U.S.A. include the manufacture and wholesale distribution of hair and skin care products by Original Sprout, the income derived from management of various investment funds by our subsidiary USCF Investments, and the income from investment advisory and transaction fees earned by Marygold U.SA. In New Zealand operations include the production, packaging and distribution on a commercial scale of gourmet meat pies and related bakery confections, and the printing of specialized food wrappers through our wholly-owned subsidiary Gourmet Foods, Ltd. and their subsidiary, Printstock. In Canada, the Company provides security alarm system installation and maintenance services to residential and commercial customers sold through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Brigadier. Our subsidiary in the U.K., Marygold UK, earns management fees through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tiger, as an investment advisor and asset manager. Separate management of each segment is required because each business unit is subject to different operational issues and strategies due to their particular regional location. The Company accounts for intra-company sales and expenses as if the sales or expenses were to third parties and eliminates them in the consolidation. Amounts are adjusted for currency translation as of the balance sheet date and presented in US dollars.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto and is qualified in its entirety by the foregoing and by more detailed financial information appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. See “Financial Statements.”

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. See “Forward-Looking Statements.” Our results and the timing of selected events may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those discussed under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part II of this report and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K.

 

Overview

(“The Marygold Companies” or the “Company”) conducts business through its wholly-owned operating subsidiaries operating in the U.S., New Zealand , the United Kingdom and Canada. The operations of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries are more particularly described herein but are summarized as follows:

 

  ● USCF Investments, Inc. (“USCF Investments”), a U.S. based company, is the sole member of two investment services limited liability company subsidiaries that manages, operates or is an investment advisor to exchange traded funds organized as limited partnerships or investment trusts that issue shares that trade on the NYSE Arca stock exchange.
  ● Gourmet Foods, Ltd., a New Zealand based company, manufactures and distributes New Zealand meat pies on a commercial scale and its wholly-owned New Zealand subsidiary company, Printstock Products Limited, prints specialty wrappers for the food industry in New Zealand and Australia. (collectively “Gourmet Foods”)
  ● Brigadier Security Systems (2000) Ltd. (“Brigadier”), a Canadian based company, sells and installs commercial and residential alarm monitoring systems.
  ● Kahnalytics, Inc. dba/Original Sprout (“Original Sprout”), a U.S. based company, is engaged in the wholesale distribution of hair and skin care products under the brand name Original Sprout on a global scale.
  ● Marygold & Co., a newly formed U.S. based company, together with its wholly-owned limited liability company, Marygold & Co.

Because the Company conducts its businesses through its wholly owned operating subsidiaries, the risks related to our wholly owned subsidiaries are also risks that impact the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. See, “Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies / Major Customers and Suppliers – Concentration of Credit Risk” in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for more information. The emergence of a novel coronavirus on a global scale, known as COVID-19, and related geopolitical events could lead to increased market volatility, disruption to U.S. and world economies and markets and may have significant adverse effects on the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The financial risk to future operations is largely unknown, (refer to Part II, Item 1A, for further details.)

 

Results of Operations

 

The Marygold Companies and Subsidiaries

 

Financial summary and comparison data for the three month periods ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022.

 

For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022

 

Revenue

 

Consolidated revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $8.2 million representing a $0.7 million decrease from the three months ended September 30, 2022 revenue of $8.9 million. The decrease in consolidated revenue was primarily attributed to USCF Investments where Assets Under Management (“AUM”) for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was lower than 2022, which resulted in a revenue decrease of approximately $0.4 million, Gourmet Foods, where revenue decreased by $0.2 million, was impacted by a strong U.S. Dollar where approximately half of the decrease was due to currency translation from lower same dollar sales. and our Canadian subsidiary, Brigadier, which experienced a $0.1 million decrease primarily due to currency translation. Our Marygold U.K. subsidiary contributed $0.1 million to overall revenue which was comparable to the three months ended September 30, 2022.

 

Expenses and Operating (Loss) Income

 

The Marygold Companies produced an operating loss for the three months ended September 30, 2023 of ($1.0) million as compared to an operating income of $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. This represents a decrease in operating income of $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. Apart from the $0.7 million decline in revenues, the remaining $1.1 million difference in operating income is primarily attributed to the expense increases of $0.8 million incurred by our subsidiary, Marygold & Co., in development of its mobile fintech app as well as a $0.2 million increase in marketing and advertising at Original Sprout related to a new product launch. Operating expenses also included $0.1 million in stock-based compensation from stock grants with the Company’s stock Equity Plan.

Many of the company’s expenses are dependent upon the amount of AUM. These variable expenses include Fund administration, custody, accounting, transfer agency, marketing and distribution, and sub-adviser fees and are primarily determined by multiplying contractual fee rates by AUM. Total Operating Expenses are grouped into the following financial statement line items: General and Administrative, Marketing, Operations and Salaries and Compensation.

 

For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022

 

Revenue

 

Average AUM for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was at $3.5 billion, as compared to approximately $3.9 billion from the three months ended September 30, 2022 primarily due to a decrease in USO, USCI and BNO AUM, partially offset by an increase in UNG AUM. As a result, the revenues from management and advisory fees decreased by approximately $370 thousand, or 7%, to $5.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022 where revenues from management and advisory fees totaled $5.4 million.

 

Expenses

 

USCF Investments total operating expenses for three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased by $245 thousand to $3.3 million, or approximately 7%, from $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Variable expenses, as described above, decreased by $260 thousand due to a decrease in total AUM which included a $252 thousand decrease in variable marketing and distribution expenses, a decrease of $52 thousand in sub-advisory fees related to lower USCI AUM and a $44 thousand increase in fund accounting and administration expenses due to an increase in the number of funds under management. General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses of $543 thousand decreased $42 thousand from $585 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to three months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. G&A expenses decreased primarily due to lower legal and professional expenses. Total marketing expenses decreased $192 thousand to $420 thousand from $612 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively. Employee salaries and benefit compensation expenses were approximately $1.0 million for the months ended September 30, 2023 compared to $1.2 million for three months ended September 30, 2022 primarily due to lower bonus accruals. Operations expenses increased $130 thousand to $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the prior year quarter of $1.1 million due an increase in license fees for new funds.

Income

 

Operating income decreased $125 thousand to $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 from $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to lower revenue. Other income (expense) was $218 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to ($62) thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022 due to dividend income and realized and unrealized gains / losses on investments. Net income before income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $0.2 million to $2.0 million compared to a $1.8 million for three months ended September 30, 2022 due to a $0.4 million decrease in revenue as a result of lower AUM, offset by a $0.2 million decrease in operating expenses and $0.3 million increase in other income.

Beauty Products – Original Sprout

 

Kahnalytics was founded in 2015 and adopted the dba/Original Sprout in December 2017. Original Sprout formulates and packages Kahnalytics was founded in 2015 and adopted the dba/Original Sprout in December 2017. Original Sprout formulates and packages various hair and skin care products that are 100% vegan, tested safe and non-toxic, and marketed globally through distribution networks to salons, resorts, grocery stores, health food stores, e-tail sites and on the company’s website. The company operates from warehouse and sales offices located in San Clemente, CA, USA. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic lock downs, Original Sprout made adjustments to its primary channels to market to allow for online shopping and contactless deliveries. Prior to the pandemic, Original Sprout relied heavily upon its wholesale distribution network to place products at retail locations and generally to make products available to consumers, whereas post-COVID-19 wholesale distributors have now adopted the practice of selling direct to consumers via e-tail platforms such as Amazon. This trend has eroded the retail price point and made it difficult for Original Sprout to maintain a presence on the shelf of retail outlets. As a result, many of the agreements with domestic wholesalers have been cancelled in an effort to thwart brand and price erosion. New channel partners are being established and aggressive marketing campaigns have been implemented to reestablish the brand in retail outlets. Management expects to realize operating losses for the short term due to these marketing costs, however recover through this transition and realize higher revenues and positive operating results in the coming fiscal year.

For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022

 

Revenue

 

Net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $0.8 million as compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 were $0.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively, resulting in a gross profit of approximately $0.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively, or 39% as compared to 43% gross margin. The failure to increase revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to September 30, 2022 is due primarily to the cancellation of domestic distribution agreements and the aggressive policing of online sales platforms in advance of a new marketing campaign.

 

Expenses

 

Operating expenses were approximately $0.6 million resulting in an operating loss of $319 thousand, as compared to $0.4 million of operating expenses resulting in an operating loss of $20 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

 

Income (Loss)

 

The net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2023, after other expenses of $3 thousand, was approximately $322 thousand as compared to a $20 thousand net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

Tiger does not provide investment management services directly, rather the clients’ assets are referred to third party investment managers, primarily discretionary investment managers.

The ratio of fees earned from investment advice as compared to commissions earned is approximately 80:20 for any given period.

Financial Services – Marygold (U.S.A.)

 

For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022

 

Marygold & Co. is a financial technology company, not a bank, providing an all-in-one banking and payment services app offering FDIC-insured accounts with a Debit Mastercard®. Like a private banker on your phone, Marygold is introducing a secure way to send, receive, spend, save and invest with no banking fees or minimum balance requirements and aims to redefine mobile banking and payments, all in one app. Marygold completed its development phase in June 2023 and continues to devote considerable resources to the development and launch of its proprietary Fintech app. Revenue is earned from the Mastercard® interchange system with debit card spend by users and from asset management fees earned on investments through the use of MoneyPools, which are goal based savings and investment accounts.

 

Revenue

 

On boarding of new customers commenced during the three months ended September 30, 2023 resulting in nominal revenue of $401.

 

Expenses

 

Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $810 thousand to $1.45 million compared to $641 thousand in the prior year quarter. The increase was attributed to ongoing development of the app and continued ramping up for the product post launch. Increases from the prior year’s quarter included additional spend of $369 thousand in product development and app service provider infrastructure, a $193 thousand increase in advertising and marketing and a $196 thousand increase in employee compensation & benefits.

 

Plan of Operation for the Next Twelve Months

 

Our plan of operation for the next twelve months is to apply necessary resources, which may include experienced personnel, cash, or synergistic acquisitions made with cash, equity or debt, into growing each of our business units to their potential. Original Sprout has found it necessary to alter its approach through domestic distribution channels. Due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on consumer shopping habits, many domestic distributors have found it advantageous to sell direct to consumers online, thus becoming retailers in lieu of distributors. The result has been an erosion of profit margins and a fragmented sales channel which have slowed the product roll out plans of Original Sprout. They are in the final stages of correcting this situation and, in spite of incurring losses as a result, expect to realize significant growth in sales volume and profits in the coming fiscal year. Additionally, we are expecting moderate growth in Brigadier through focused management initiatives and partnering with local telecoms and contractors. Similarly, we expect Gourmet Foods to be operating more efficiently as low margin products are eliminated, new channels to market are established, and the printing and sale of food wrappers by their subsidiary, Printstock, continue to improve. USCF Investments will continue to develop innovative and new fund products to grow its portfolio. In addition to our long-term mission that is an acquisition strategy based upon identifying and acquiring profitable, mature, companies of a diverse nature and with in-place management that produces increased revenue streams, the Company is also focused upon building expertise and developing Fintech opportunities in the financial services sector through its subsidiary Marygold and Co. To augment that effort, the Company established a subsidiary in England, Marygold UK, who acquired a registered UK investment advisor, Tiger Financial and Asset Management (“Tiger”). We hope to leverage the client list, industry experience, and banking relationships of Tiger to project our Marygold & Co fintech offerings in the UK during the coming fiscal year. In a more general sense, the Company is characterizing its business in two categories: 1) financial services and 2) other consumer-based operating units. The purpose is to isolate the cyclical, and sometimes volatile, nature of the USCF Investments business from our other industry segments. As revenues from financial services fluctuate over time due to varying performance of the commodities markets, our other operations are expected to be stable and sustainable by comparison. By these initiatives we seek to:

 

  ● continue to gain market share for our wholly-owned subsidiaries’ areas of operation, increase our revenues and realize net operating profits,

 

37
 

 

  ● lower our operating costs by unburdening certain selling expenses to third party distributors,
  ● have sufficient cash reserves to pay down accrued expenses.
  ● attract parties who have an interest in selling their privately held companies to us,
  ● achieve efficiencies in accounting and reporting through adoption of standards used by all subsidiaries on a consistent basis,
  ● strategically pursue additional company acquisitions, and
  ● expand launch of services by Marygold & Co., Marygold UK, and Marygold & Co. Advisory Services LLC, and the creation of new corporate entities as focused subsidiary holdings.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Marygold Companies is a holding company that conducts its operations through its subsidiaries. At the holding-company level, its liquidity needs relate to operational expense, the funding of additional business acquisitions and new investment opportunities. Our operating subsidiaries’ principal liquidity requirements arise from cash used in operating activities, debt service, and capital expenditures, including purchases of equipment and services, operating costs and expenses, and income taxes. Cash is managed at the holding company or the subsidiary level. There are no limitations or constraints on the movement of funds between the entities.

 

As of September 30, 2023, we had $7.0 million of cash and cash equivalents, excluding $0.4 million in restricted cash, on a consolidated basis as compared to $8.2 million as of June 30, 2023. The decrease in cash was primarily due to the continuing investment in the development of the mobile fintech app by Marygold along with providing initial seed capital for the USCF Investments ZSC fund launch.

 

During the past five fiscal years combined, The Marygold Companies has invested an aggregate of approximately $6.6 million in cash towards purchasing and assimilating Printstock within Gourmet Foods, and adding the Original Sprout assets into the The Marygold Companies group of companies as well as forming a new U.K. limited company, Marygold UK, and funding it with enough capital to pay approximately $1.8 million in cash towards the $2.9 million purchase price of its subsidiary, Tiger. We have also invested approximately $11.1 million in the development of our Fintech applications subsidiary, Marygold. Despite these cash investments and expenses, our working capital position remains strong at approximately $22.4 million. While The Marygold Companies intends to maintain and improve its revenue stream from wholly-owned subsidiaries, The Marygold Companies continues to pursue acquisitions of other profitable companies which meet its target profile. Provided The Marygold Companies’ subsidiaries continue to operate as they are presently, and are projected to operate, The Marygold Companies has sufficient capital to pay its general and administrative expenses for the coming fiscal year and to adequately pursue its long-term business objectives. However, given the significant economic and financial market disruptions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, the conflicts in Israel and the Ukraine, the Company’s results of operations could be adversely impacted.

 

Lease Liability

 

The Company has various operating leases for offices, warehouses and manufacturing facilities. The total amount due under these obligations was $713,360 and $837,844 as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively. The obligations will reduce over the passage of time through periodic lease payments. See Note 15 for further analysis of this obligation.

 

Borrowings

 

As of September 30, 2023, we had $0.4 million of third-party indebtedness on a consolidated basis as compared to $0.3 million of third-party and related-party indebtedness as of June 30, 2023. Approximately US$328,646 is owed by Brigadier and secured with the land and building in Saskatoon purchased in July 2019. The initial principal balance was CD$525,000 (approximately US$401,000 translated as of the loan date July 1, 2019) with an annual interest rate of 4.14% maturing June 30, 2024. Interest on the loan is expensed or accrued as it becomes due. Interest expense on the loan for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was US$3,488 and US$3,706, respectively.

 

In addition to the loan due by Brigadier, our subsidiary, Gourmet Foods, has a finance lease liability related to a solar energy system. Total lease liabilities under the lease for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were NZ$167,058 (approximately US$100,178 translated as of September 30, 2023) as compared to NZ$174,405 (approximately US$106,469 translated as of June 30, 2023), respectively, and are included under loans - property and equipment on our consolidated balance sheets.

Investments

 

USCF Investments, from time to time, provides initial investments in the creation of ETP funds that USCF Investments manages. USCF Investments classifies these investments as current assets as these investments are generally sold within one year from the balance sheet date. As of September 30, 2023, USCF Investments held investment positions in four of its 40 Act funds, GLDX, ZSB, USE and ZSC (launched in August 2023) of $1.2 million, $0.5 million, $3.2 million, and $2.7 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2023 USCF held position in GLDX, ZSB, and USE of $1.3 million, $1.9 million, and $2.6 million, respectively. These investments along with other investments, as applicable, are described further in Note 7 to our Financial Statements.

 

Dividends

 

Our strategy on dividends is to declare and pay dividends only from retained earnings and only when our Board of Directors deems it prudent and in the best interests of the Company to declare and pay dividends. We paid no dividends during the three months ended September 30, 2023 or year ended June 30, 2023.

USCF, as the general partner of the United States Oil Fund, LP (“USO”) and the general partner and sponsor of the related public funds may, from time to time, be involved in litigation arising out of its operations in the ordinary course of business. Except as described herein, USO and USCF are not currently party to any material legal proceedings.

 

Settlement of SEC and CFTC Investigations

 

On November 8, 2021, USCF and USO announced a resolution with each of the SEC and the CFTC relating to matters set forth in certain Wells Notices issued by the staffs of each of the SEC and CFTC as more fully described below.

 

On August 17, 2020, USCF, USO, and John Love received a “Wells Notice” from the staff of the SEC (the “SEC Wells Notice”). The SEC Wells Notice stated that the SEC staff made a preliminary determination to recommend that the SEC file an enforcement action against USCF, USO, and Mr. Love alleging violations of Sections 17(a)(1) and 17(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), and Rule 10b-5 thereunder.

 

Subsequently, on August 19, 2020, USCF, USO, and Mr. Love received a Wells Notice from the staff of the CFTC (the “CFTC Wells Notice”). The CFTC Wells Notice stated that the CFTC staff made a preliminary determination to recommend that the CFTC file an enforcement action against USCF, USO, and Mr. Love alleging violations of Sections 4o(1)(A) and (B) and 6(c)(1) of the Commodity Exchange Act of 1936, as amended (the “CEA”), 7 U.S.C. §§ 6o(1)(A) and (B) and 9(1) (2018), and CFTC Regulations 4.26, 4.41, and 180.1(a), 17 C.F.R. §§ 4.26, 4.41, 180.1(a) (2019).

 

On November 8, 2021, acting pursuant to an offer of settlement submitted by USCF and USO, the SEC issued an order instituting cease-and-desist proceedings, making findings, and imposing a cease-and-desist order pursuant to Section 8A of the 1933 Act, directing USCF and USO to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of Section 17(a)(3) of the 1933 Act, 15 U.S.C. § 77q(a)(3) (the SEC Order). In the SEC Order, the SEC made findings that, from April 24, 2020 to May 21, 2020, USCF and USO violated Section 17(a)(3) of 1933 Act, which provides that it is “unlawful for any person in the offer or sale of any securities to engage in any transaction, practice, or course of business which operates or would operate as a fraud or deceit upon the purchaser.” USCF and USO consented to entry of the SEC Order without admitting or denying the findings contained therein, except as to jurisdiction.

 

Separately, on November 8, 2021, acting pursuant to an offer of settlement submitted by USCF, the CFTC issued an order instituting cease-and-desist proceedings, making findings, and imposing a cease-and-desist order pursuant to Section 6(c) and (d) of the CEA, directing USCF to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of Section 4o(1)(B) of the CEA, 7 U.S.C. § 6o(1)(B), and CFTC Regulation 4.41(a)(2), 17 C.F.R. § 4.41(a)(2) (the “CFTC Order”). In the CFTC Order, the CFTC made findings that, from on or about April 22, 2020 to June 12, 2020, USCF violated Section 4o(1)(B) of the CEA and CFTC Regulation 4.41(a)(2), which make it unlawful for any commodity pool operator (“CPO”) to engage in “any transaction, practice, or course of business which operates as a fraud or deceit upon any client or participant or prospective client or participant” and prohibit a CPO from advertising in a manner which “operates as a fraud or deceit upon any client or participant or prospective client or participant,” respectively. USCF consented to entry of the CFTC Order without admitting or denying the findings contained therein, except as to jurisdiction.

 

Pursuant to the SEC Order and the CFTC Order, in addition to the command to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of Section 17(a)(3) of the 1933 Act, Section 4o(1)(B) of the CEA, and CFTC Regulation 4.14(a)(2), civil monetary penalties totaling two million five hundred thousand dollars ($2,500,000) in the aggregate were required to be paid to the SEC and CFTC, of which one million two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($1,250,000) was paid by USCF to each of the SEC and the CFTC, respectively, pursuant to the offsets permitted under the orders.

 

In re: United States Oil Fund, LP Securities Litigation

 

On June 19, 2020, USCF, USO, John P. Love, and Stuart P. Crumbaugh were named as defendants in a putative class action filed by purported shareholder Robert Lucas (the “Lucas Class Action”). The Court thereafter consolidated the Lucas Class Action with two related putative class actions filed on July 31, 2020 and August 13, 2020, and appointed a lead plaintiff. The consolidated class action is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York under the caption In re: United States Oil Fund, LP Securities Litigation, Civil Action No. 1:20-cv-04740.

 

40
 

 

On November 30, 2020, the lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint (the “Amended Lucas Class Complaint”). The Amended Lucas Class Complaint asserts claims under the 1933 Act, the Exchange Act, and Rule 10b-5. The Amended Lucas Class Complaint challenges statements in registration statements that became effective on February 25, 2020 and March 23, 2020 as well as subsequent public statements through April 2020 concerning certain extraordinary market conditions and the attendant risks that caused the demand for oil to fall precipitously, including the COVID-19 global pandemic and the Saudi Arabia-Russia oil price war. The Amended Lucas Class Complaint purports to have been brought by an investor in USO on behalf of a class of similarly-situated shareholders who purchased USO securities between February 25, 2020 and April 28, 2020 and pursuant to the challenged registration statements. The Amended Lucas Class Complaint seeks to certify a class and to award the class compensatory damages at an amount to be determined at trial as well as costs and attorney’s fees. The Amended Lucas Class Complaint named as defendants USCF, USO, John P. Love, Stuart P. Crumbaugh, Nicholas D. Gerber, Andrew F Ngim, Robert L. Nguyen, Peter M. Robinson, Gordon L. Ellis, and Malcolm R. Fobes III, as well as the marketing agent, ALPS Distributors, Inc., and the Authorized Participants: ABN Amro, BNP Paribas Securities Corporation, Citadel Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets, Inc., Credit Suisse Securities USA LLC, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Goldman Sachs & Company, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., Merrill Lynch Professional Clearing Corporation, Morgan Stanley & Company Inc., Nomura Securities International Inc., RBC Capital Markets LLC, SG Americas Securities LLC, UBS Securities LLC, and Virtu Financial BD LLC.

 

The lead plaintiff has filed a notice of voluntary dismissal of its claims against BNP Paribas Securities Corporation, Citadel Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Credit Suisse Securities USA LLC, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Morgan Stanley & Company, Inc., Nomura Securities International, Inc., RBC Capital Markets, LLC, SG Americas Securities LLC, and UBS Securities LLC.

 

USCF, USO, and the individual defendants in In re: United States Oil Fund, LP Securities Litigation intend to vigorously contest such claims and have moved for their dismissal. No accrual has been recorded with respect to the above legal matters as of June 30, 2023 and 2022. We are currently unable to predict the timing or outcome of, or reasonably estimate the possible losses or range of, possible losses resulting from these matters. It is reasonably possible that this estimate will change in the near term. An adverse outcome regarding these matters could materially adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 

Mehan Action

 

On August 10, 2020, purported shareholder Darshan Mehan filed a derivative action on behalf of nominal defendant USO, against defendants USCF, John P. Love, Stuart P. Crumbaugh, Nicholas D. Gerber, Andrew F Ngim, Robert L. Nguyen, Peter M. Robinson, Gordon L. Ellis, and Malcolm R. Fobes, III (the “Mehan Action”). The action is pending in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Alameda as Case No. RG20070732.

 

The Mehan Action alleges that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to USO and failed to act in good faith in connection with a March 19, 2020 registration statement and offering and disclosures regarding certain extraordinary market conditions that caused demand for oil to fall precipitously, including the COVID-19 global pandemic and the Saudi Arabia-Russia oil price war. The complaint seeks, on behalf of USO, compensatory damages, restitution, equitable relief, attorney’s fees, and costs. All proceedings in the Mehan Action are stayed pending disposition of the motion(s) to dismiss in In re: United States Oil Fund, LP Securities Litigation.

 

USCF, USO, and the other defendants intend to vigorously contest such claims.

 

In re United States Oil Fund, LP Derivative Litigation

 

On August 27, 2020, purported shareholders Michael Cantrell and AML Pharm. Inc. DBA Golden International filed two separate derivative actions on behalf of nominal defendant USO, against defendants USCF, John P. Love, Stuart P. Crumbaugh, Andrew F Ngim, Gordon L. Ellis, Malcolm R. Fobes, III, Nicholas D. Gerber, Robert L. Nguyen, and Peter M. Robinson in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York at Civil Action No. 1:20-cv-06974 (the “Cantrell Action”) and Civil Action No. 1:20-cv-06981 (the “AML Action”), respectively.

 

The complaints in the Cantrell and AML Actions are nearly identical. They each allege violations of Sections 10(b), 20(a) and 21D of the Exchange Act, Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and common law claims of breach of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and waste of corporate assets. These allegations stem from USO’s disclosures and defendants’ alleged actions in light of the extraordinary market conditions in 2020 that caused demand for oil to fall precipitously, including the COVID-19 global pandemic and the Saudi Arabia-Russia oil price war. The complaints seek, on behalf of USO, compensatory damages, restitution, equitable relief, attorney’s fees, and costs. The plaintiffs in the Cantrell and AML Actions have marked their actions as related to the Lucas Class Action.

 

41
 

 

The Court consolidated the Cantrell and AML Actions under the caption In re United States Oil Fund, LP Derivative Litigation, Civil Action No. 1:20-cv-06974 and appointed co-lead counsel. All proceedings in In re United States Oil Fund, LP Derivative Litigation are stayed pending disposition of the motion(s) to dismiss in In re: United States Oil Fund, LP Securities Litigation.

 

USCF, USO, and the other defendants intend to vigorously contest the claims in In re United States Oil Fund, LP Derivative Litigation.

 

Optimum Strategies Action

 

On April 6, 2022, USO and USCF were named as defendants in an action filed by Optimum Strategies Fund I, LP, a purported investor in call option contracts on USO (the “Optimum Strategies Action”). The action was in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut at Civil Action No. 3:22-cv-00511.

 

The Optimum Strategies Action asserted claims under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and the Connecticut Uniform Securities Act (“CUSA”). It purported to challenge statements in registration statements that became effective in February 2020, March 2020, and on April 20, 2020, as well as public statements between February 2020 and May 2020, in connection with certain extraordinary market conditions and the attendant risks that caused the demand for oil to fall precipitously, including the COVID-19 global pandemic and the Saudi Arabia-Russia oil price war. The complaint was seeking damages, interest, costs, attorney’s fees, and equitable relief.

 

On March 15, 2023, the court granted the USO defendants’ motion to dismiss the complaint. In its ruling, the court granted the USO defendants’ motion to dismiss, with prejudice, the plaintiff’s claims under Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and a claim for control person liability under Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act. Having dismissed all claims over which the court had original jurisdiction, the court declined to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over the plaintiff’s state law claim under CUSA and dismissed the claim without prejudice. No notice of appeal was filed.

 

No accrual has been recorded with respect to the above legal matters as of June 30, 2023 and 2022. We are currently unable to predict the timing or outcome of, or reasonably estimate the possible losses or range of, possible losses resulting from these matters. It is reasonably possible that this estimate will change in the near term. An adverse outcome regarding these matters could materially adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation and Accounting Principles

 

The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited financial statements on a consolidated basis. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, related statements of income and comprehensive income, and cash flows include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, necessary for their fair presentation, prepared on an accrual basis, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with information included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for year ended June 30, 2023 and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on September 25, 2023.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements, which are referred herein as the “Financial Statements”, include the accounts of The Marygold Companies and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, USCF Investments, Gourmet Foods, Brigadier, Original Sprout, Marygold and Marygold UK are presented on a consolidated basis.

 

All inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less on the date of purchase. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in financial institutions in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and New Zealand. Accounts in the United States are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000 per depositor, accounts in Canada are insured by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation up to CD$100,000 per depositor and accounts in the United Kingdom are insured by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme up to £85,000. Accounts in New Zealand are uninsured. The Company has, at times, held deposits in excess of insured amounts, but the Company does not expect any losses in such accounts.

 

Accounts Receivable, net and Accounts Receivable – Related Parties

 

Accounts receivable, net consist of receivables related to the Brigadier, Gourmet Foods and Original Sprout businesses. Management regularly reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes customer credit worthiness, customer concentrations, current economic trends, changes in customer payment patterns, and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future to determine whether or not an account should be deemed uncollectible. Reserves, if any, are recorded on a specific identification basis. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the Company had $213 and $1,427, respectively, reserved for as allowance for credit losses.

 

Accounts receivable – related parties consist of fund asset management fees receivable related to the USCF Investments business. Management fees receivable generally consist of one month of management fees which are collected in the month after they are earned. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, there is no allowance for credit losses as all amounts are deemed collectible.

 

Major Customers and Suppliers – Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Marygold Companies, as a holding company, operates through its wholly-owned subsidiaries and has no concentration of risk either from customers or suppliers as a stand-alone entity. Marygold, as a newly formed development stage entity, had not commenced operations for the year ended June 30, 2023. Any transactions that did occur were combined with those of The Marygold Companies for periods prior to June 30, 2023.

 

Our subsidiary USCF Investments relies on the revenues generated through the various funds it manages. The concentration of fund management revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and related receivables as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 were as follows:

 

   For the Three Months Ended   For the Three Months Ended 
   September 30, 2023   September 30, 2022 
   Revenue   Revenue 
Fund                    
USO  $1,684,103    33%  $2,564,245    47%
UNG   1,688,916    34%   807,940    15%

   Accounts Receivable   Accounts Receivable 
Fund                    
USO  $544,764    33%  $596,039    36%
UNG   565,460    34%   554,011    33%
All Others   559,662    33%   523,845    31%
Total  $1,669,886    100%  $1,673,895    100%

 

 

The Marygold Companies, through Gourmet Foods and its wholly owned subsidiary, Printstock Products Limited, has two major customer groups comprising gross revenues: 1) baking, and 2) printing. For the purpose of segment reporting (Note 16), both revenue streams are considered part of the same “food industry” segment as they are evaluated as one segment by the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker.

 

Baking: Within the baking sector there are three major customer groups; 1) grocery, 2) gasoline convenience stores, and 3) independent retailers. The grocery industry is dominated by several large chain operations, which are customers of Gourmet Foods, and there are no long-term guarantees that these major customers will continue to purchase products from Gourmet Foods, however, many of the existing relationships have been in place for sufficient time to give management reasonable confidence in their continuing business.

 

In the gasoline convenience store market customer group, Gourmet Foods supplies major consortiums of gasoline convenience stores who operate under various name brands.

 

The third major customer group is independent retailers and cafes, which collectively accounted for the balance of baking sales revenue. Although some customers contributed significant revenues to Gourmet Foods, no single customer contributed a significant amount of revenues to the consolidated Company for the three month periods ending September 30, 2023 and 2022. One customer did account for 10% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of September 30, 2023 and was insignificant as of June 30, 2023.

 

Printing: The printing sector of Gourmet Foods’ gross revenues is comprised of many customers, some large and some small, with no single customer accounting for a significant portion of the Company’s consolidated revenues. One customer accounted for 17% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of September 30, 2023 as compared to 12% as of June 30, 2023. One other customer accounted for 11% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023, however was insignificant as of September 30, 2023.

 

Gourmet Foods, including Printstock, is not dependent upon any one major supplier as many alternative sources are available in the local marketplace should the need arise. However, the unavailability of, or increase in price in, any of the ingredients on which Gourmet Foods relies to produce its products could harm its operating results for such period.

 

The Marygold Companies, through Brigadier, is partially dependent upon its contractual relationship with the alarm monitoring company who provides monitoring services to Brigadier’s customers. In the event this contract is terminated, Brigadier would be compelled to find an alternate source of alarm monitoring, or establish such a facility itself. Management believes that the contractual relationship is sustainable, and has been for many years, with alternate solutions available should the need arise. This monitoring company accounted for 12% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of September 30, 2023 and 11% at June 30, 2023. A customer accounted for 12% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023 and was insignificant as of September 30, 2023.

 

Brigadier purchases alarm panels, digital and analog cameras, mounting hardware and accessory items needed to complete security installations from a variety of sources. The manufacture of electronic items such as those sought by Brigadier has expanded to a global scale thus providing Brigadier with a broad choice of suppliers. Brigadier bases its vendor selection on several criteria including: price, availability, shipping costs, quality, suitability for purpose and the technical support of the manufacturer. Brigadier is not reliant on any one supplier.

 

The Marygold Companies, through Original Sprout, sells its products through 3 channels to market: 1) direct sales to end users via online shopping carts, 2) sales through international wholesale distributors who, in turn, sell to other retailers or wholesalers, and 3) to retail stores selling to end users either from the shelf or online. No single customer contributed significant sales revenues to the Company’s consolidated revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. No single customer contributed a significant amount to the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of September 30, 2023 or as of June 30, 2023.

 

 

The Marygold Companies, through Original Sprout, is dependent upon its relationships with product packaging companies who, at the direction of Original Sprout, produce the products in accordance with proprietary formulas, packages them in appropriate containers, and delivers the finished goods to Original Sprout for distribution to its customers. Original Sprout strives to maintain at least two packaging companies at all times, thus if one relationship were to fail the other would be able to continue to supply services. Because of the nature of the Original Sprout product ingredients, some of the ingredients may, at times, be difficult to source in timely fashion or at the expected price point. To safeguard against this possibility, Original Sprout endeavors to maintain at least a 90-day supply of all products in stock. Estimating and maintaining a reserve stock account is not a guarantee that a shortage of ingredient supplies will not affect production such that Original Sprout will not exhaust its reserves or be unable to fulfill customer orders.

 

The Marygold Companies, through Marygold UK and its wholly owned subsidiary, Tiger Financial and Asset Management (“Tiger”), identifies its concentration of risk as the reliance on a relatively small number of clients to continue their relationship with Tiger as their investment advisor. Tiger acts as an investment advisor and financial planner to its clients and has two principal revenue streams which comprise ongoing fees for providing investment advice, and commissions for the intermediation of insurance-based products. Tiger does not provide investment management services directly, rather the clients’ assets are referred to third party investment managers, primarily discretionary investment managers, and Tiger receives fees for the ongoing advice and financial planning services which are charged as a percentage of the assets under management. Should the relationship with the current investment manager come to an end, management is confident that a similar arrangement can be easily made with alternative investment managers. Tiger advises approximately 50 families/clients who collectively account for approximately $40 million in assets under management as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023. No single client accounted for a significant portion of the Company’s consolidated revenues. Marygold UK does not recognize any credit risk for accounts receivable. Marygold UK is seeking to further diversify its client base through ongoing outreach initiatives and, in the long term, add to its revenue streams through the development of the Marygold fintech app.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories, consisting primarily of; (i) food products, printing supplies, and packaging in New Zealand, (ii) hair and skin care finished products and components in the U.S., (iii) security system hardware in Canada, and (iv) printed debit cards and wearables at Marygold are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventories in Canada and New Zealand are maintained on the first-in, first-out method, while inventory in the U.S is maintained using the average cost method. Inventories include product cost, inbound freight and warehousing costs where applicable. Management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value and an allowance is made for writing down the inventories to their net realizable value, if lower. An assessment is made at the end of each fiscal quarter to determine what slow-moving inventory items, if any, should be deemed obsolete and written down to their estimated net realizable value. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the expense for slow-moving or obsolete inventory was $0 and $0, respectively.

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; additions, renewals and leasehold improvements are capitalized. Office furniture and equipment include office fixtures, computers, printers and other office equipment plus software and applicable packaging designs. Leasehold improvements, which are included in plant and equipment, are depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the improvement and the length of the lease. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset (see Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

 

Category   Estimated Useful Life (in years)  
Building     39  
Plant and equipment:     5 to 10  
Furniture and office equipment     3 to 5  
Vehicles     3 to 5  

 

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets consist of brand names, domain names, recipes, non-compete agreements and customer lists along with the internally developed software in process for the business applications of Marygold which launched in the latter part of June 2023, and the U.K. regulatory certification acquired by Marygold UK in the Tiger purchase transaction. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the estimated useful life and are evaluated for impairment at least on an annual basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. When it is determined that an indefinite intangible asset is impaired, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. There was no impairment recorded for the three month period ended September 30, 2023 or the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the aggregate purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination transaction. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter of the Company’s fiscal year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may be impaired. The Company first performs a qualitative test to determine if goodwill is impaired at a reporting unit. In performing this test, the Company evaluates macroeconomic factors, industry and market considerations, cost factors such as the increase in the cost of materials or labor or other costs, overall financial performance, changes in key personnel or customers or strategy, and other entity-specific events or trends that could indicate impairment, among other items. If the results of this test indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting is below its carrying value, a quantitative test is then performed to determine the amount of the impairment. When impaired, the carrying value of goodwill is written down to fair value. There was no impairment recorded for the three month period ended September 30, 2023 or the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company tests long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value. There was no impairment recorded for the three month period ended September 30, 2023 or the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

 

Investments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Equity securities included in short-term investments are classified as available-for-sale securities and debt securities are classified as trading securities. The Company measures the investments at fair value at period end with any changes in fair value reflected as unrealized gains or (losses) which is included as part of other (expense) income in the consolidated statements of income. The Company values its investments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurement. The changes to past practice resulting from the application of ASC 820 relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurement. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between: (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company (observable inputs) and (2) The Company’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available under the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The three levels defined by the ASC 820 hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 assets include the following: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market-corroborated inputs).

 

Level 3 – Unobservable pricing input at the measurement date for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs shall be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.

 

In some instances, the inputs used to measure fair value might fall within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest input level that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

 

 

Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

 

The Company from time to time will issue warrant instruments to purchase common stock and accounts for warrant instruments as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the specific terms of the warrants and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). Generally, warrants issued in connection with debt and equity financings are presented as a component of equity unless the warrants include a conditional obligation to issue a variable number of shares among other conditions, or it is possible that the Company may need to settle the warrants in cash, in which instance the warrants would be accounted for as non-current liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 all outstanding warrants are classified as equity instruments.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock-based compensation expense is measured based on grant date at fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model for stock options and the grant date closing stock price for restricted stock awards. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting term of four to five years. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue consists of fees earned through management of investment funds in the United States and in the United Kingdom primarily based on assets under management (“AUM”), sales of gourmet meat pies and printing of food wrappers in New Zealand, sales of security alarm system installation and maintenance services in Canada, and sales of hair and skin care products internationally. Revenue is accounted for net of sales taxes, sales returns, and trade discounts. The performance obligation is satisfied when the product has been shipped and title, risk of loss and rewards of ownership have been transferred. For most of the Company’s product sales or services, the revenue recognition criteria described below are met at the time the product is shipped, the subscription period commences, or the management services are provided. For our Brigadier subsidiary in Canada, the Company operates under contract with an alarm monitoring company that pays a percentage of its recurring monitoring fee to Brigadier in exchange for continued customer service and support functions with respect to each customer maintained under contract by the monitoring company. The Company has no costs of contracts which require capitalization. The Company’s only contract assets are accounts receivable, net, and accounts receivable – related parties. The Company has no contract liabilities other than deposits received periodically which are insignificant to the consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company generates revenue, in part, through contractual monthly recurring fees received for providing ongoing customer support services to monitoring company clientele. The five-step process governing contract revenue reporting includes:

 

1. Identifying the contract(s) with customers

2. Identifying the performance obligations in the contract

3. Determining the transaction price

4. Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

5. Recognizing revenue when or as the performance obligation is satisfied

 

Transactions involve security systems that are sold outright to the customer where the Company’s performance obligations include customer support services and the sale and installation of the security systems. For such arrangements, the Company allocates a portion of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative stand-alone selling price. Revenue associated with the sale and installation of security systems is recognized once installation is complete, and is reflected as security system revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Revenue associated with customer support services is recognized as those services are provided, and is included as a component of security system revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, which for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, were approximately $73,422 and $82,960, or approximately 13% and 13%, respectively, of the total security system revenues. These revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 accounted for approximately 1% of total consolidated revenues. None of the other subsidiaries of the Company generate revenues from long-term contracts.

 

Because the Company has no contract with the end user, and the monthly payments for customer support services are made to the Company by the monitoring company who has a contract with the end user, and end user customers are subject to cancellation through no control of the Company; therefore, no deferred revenues or contingent liability reserves have been established with respect to these contracts. The services are deemed delivered as the obligation is acknowledged on a monthly basis.

 

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits or if future deductibility is uncertain.

 

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Applicable interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as additional income taxes in the statements of income.

 

Advertising Costs

 

The Company expenses the cost of advertising as incurred. Marketing and advertising costs for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 were $1.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

 

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

We record foreign currency translation adjustments and transaction gains and losses in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. The accounts of Gourmet Foods use the New Zealand dollar as the functional currency. The accounts of Brigadier Security System use the Canadian dollar as the functional currency, and the accounts of Marygold UK use the Great Britain pound as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date, and operating results are translated at the weighted average exchange rate throughout the period. Foreign currency transaction gains and (losses) can also occur if a transaction is settled in a currency other than the entity’s functional currency. Accumulated currency translation gains and (losses) are classified as an item of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the stockholders’ equity section of the consolidated balance sheet.

 

Segment Reporting

 

The Company defines operating segments as components for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performances. The Company allocates its resources and assesses the performance of its sales activities based on these segments (Refer to Note 16 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

 

Business Combinations

 

We allocate the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from acquired users, acquired trade names from a market participant perspective, useful lives and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which is one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and year ended June 30, 2023 a determination was made that no adjustments were necessary.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Board Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-10, and ASU 2019-11, which replace the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected credit loss model and require a financial asset measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The new guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022 (as amended by ASU 2019-10), including interim periods within that annual period. The Company adopted the standard during the quarter ending September 30, 2023 with the additional disclosures and no changes related to the period of recognition of losses on its receivables.

 

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The amendment is meant to simplify the accounting for convertible instruments by removing certain separation models in subtopic 470-20 for convertible instruments. The amendment also changed the method used to calculate diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) for convertible instruments and for instruments that may be settled in cash. The amendment is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods for those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for periods beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company anticipates the adoption of the standard will not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures given its current and anticipated operations.

BASIC AND DILUTED NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

NOTE 3. BASIC AND DILUTED NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

 

Basic net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. This calculation includes Basic net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. This calculation includes the weighted average number of Series B Convertible Preferred shares outstanding also, as they are deemed to be substantially similar to the common shares and shareholders are entitled to the same liquidation and dividend rights. Diluted net income per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. As of September 30, 2023 there were 1,237,157 common stock equivalents which were anti-dilutive. During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, the dilutive effect of nonvested restricted stock awards results in approximately 29,200 incremental shares to be included in the diluted shares used in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The incremental diluted shares have no impact on earnings per share and have been omitted from the September 30, 2022 table presented below. As such, basic and diluted earnings per share were the same.

 

Basic and diluted net income per share reflects the effects of shares potentially issuable upon conversion of convertible preferred stock.

 

The components of basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows:

The fair value of the acquired brand name was determined to be $740,000 and is considered to have an indefinite life. Unlike the brand names Gourmet Foods and Brigadier Security Systems, Original Sprout is an actual product name and recognized associated brand that is identifiable to consumers of the product and is the basis of the value proposition.

On July 1, 2020, our wholly owned subsidiary, Gourmet Foods, Ltd., acquired Printstock Products Limited. The fair value of the brand name was determined to be $57,842 and, like that of Original Sprout, would continue to stay in use for an indefinite period of time. Therefore, the Company will test for impairment of the brand names “Original Sprout” and “Printstock” at each reporting interval with no amortization recognized. One June 20, 2022, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Marygold UK, Tiger Financial and Asset Management Limited. The fair value of the acquired trade name, $24,456, together with its regulatory business certification, $73,368, totaled $97,824 and, like those of Printstock and Original Sprout, would continue to stay in use for an indefinite period of time.

Investments

 

USCF Investments, from time to time, provides initial seed capital in connection with the creation of ETPs or ETFs that are managed by USCF or USCF Advisers. USCF Investments classifies these investments as current assets as these investments are generally sold within one year of the balance sheet date. Investments in which no controlling financial interest or significant influence exists are recorded at fair value with the change included in earnings on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Investments in which no controlling financial interest exists, but significant influence exists are recorded per the equity method of investment accounting unless the fair value option is elected under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 825, Fair Value Option. As of September 30, 2023, the USCF Advisers owned $1.2 million of the USCF Gold Strategy Plus Income Fund (“GLDX”), $0.5 million of the USCF Sustainable Battery Metals Strategy Fund (“ZSB”), $3.2 million of the USCF Energy Commodity Strategy Absolute Return Fund (“USE”) and $2.7 million of the USCF Sustainable Commodity Strategy Fund (“ZSC”), which launched in August 2023. As of June 30, 2023, USCF Advisers held positions in GLDX, ZSB and USE of $1.3 million, $1.9 million and $2.6 million, respectively. These funds are related parties managed by USCF Advisers, which are included in other equities in the below table. The Company elected the fair value option related to these investments as the shares were purchased and will be sold on the market and this accounting treatment is deemed to be most informative. In addition to the holdings in GLDX, ZSB and USE, the Company also invests in marketable securities.

NOTE 12. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Common Stock and Convertible Preferred Stock

 

The Company has 900,000,000 common shares authorized, 39,383,459 of which were issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2023 and June 30,2023. 

 

Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

 

On March 14, 2022, pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company issued the Underwriter’s Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 82,500 shares of Common Stock as compensation for their services related to this issuance. The Underwriter’s Warrants may be exercised beginning on September 14, 2022, until March 14, 2027. The initial exercise price of each Warrant is $2.40 per share, which represents 120% of the Offering Price. The total fair value of the warrants granted to the Underwriter was $132,000. The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: Risk-free interest rate of 2.10%, expected life of 5 years, dividend yield of 0% and volatility of 117%. As the warrant issuance was for services rendered related to an equity issuance, no expense was recognized for the year ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 related to the issuance.

 

Convertible Preferred Stock

 

The Company has 50,000,000 shares authorized to issue as Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock is designated into two series, 5,000,000 designated as Series A, and 45,000,000 designated as Series B. As of September 30, 2023 there are no issued or outstanding shares of Series A stock.

 

Each issued Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 20 shares of common stock and carries a vote of 20 shares of common stock in all matters brought before the shareholders for a vote. On January 15, 2021, the Company converted 3,672 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to 73,440 shares of common stock per the request of the shareholder and pursuant to the stock designation. There are 49,360 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023.

 

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

In August 2021, the Company adopted the 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (“the Equity Plan”) which provides for the grant of stock-based awards, including stock options, restricted stock awards (“RSA”) and restricted stock units (“RSU”), to employees and non-employees. A total of 5,000,000 shares of common stock are authorized for issuance under the Plan, of which 3,772,843 are available for future grants as of September 30, 2023.

 

The fair value of stock options are estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and recognized as compensation on a straight-line basis between the date of grant and the date the options become fully vested. During the three months ended September 30, 2023 the Company granted 240,881 stock options with a weighted average grant date fair value of $1.18 per share. Stock options issued have terms of ten years. The fair value of the options granted were estimated using the following assumptions:

 

   For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 
Expected volatility   166% - 197%
Expected term   6.4 years 
Risk-Free interest rate   3.5% - 4.1%
Weighted-average fair value per share of grants  $1.41 
Expected dividend yield   0%

The fair value of these options, calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, was determined to be $658,644 using the assumptions note above. The estimated aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercisable as of September 30, 2023 was $0. Stock-based compensation relating to stock options totaled $31,742 and $0 for the three months ending September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and are included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. As of September 30, 2023, there was a total of $578,671 of unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding stock options that will be recognized over a remaining weighted average period of 3.6 years.

The fair value of RSA’s is recognized as compensation on a straight-line basis between the date of grant and the date the RSA’s become fully vested. The fair value of RSA’s is estimated on the grant date based on the closing quoted market price of the Company’s stock and generally vest over a period of a 4 year period following issuance date, subject to continued service. In addition to the nonvested shares, there are approximately 26,716 of vested but not issued awards as of September 30, 2023. The vested unissued units are included in outstanding shares for basic and diluted earnings per share data, but are not reported as issued and outstanding in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Condensed Consolidated Statements in Shareholder’ Equity.

 

 

During three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company granted 447,543 RSA’s with a weighted average grant date fair value of $1.03 per share and a total fair value at date of grant of $461,210. The intrinsic value of outstanding RSA’s was $766,325 as of September 30, 2023. Stock-based compensation relating to RSA’s totaled $61,888 and $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and are included in the condensed consolidated statements of income. As of September 30, 2023, there was $758,035 of unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding RSA’s that will be recognized over a remaining weighted average period of 3.4 years. Holders of RSA’s generally have the rights and privileges of a stockholder with respect to the shares of common stock granted to the holder, including the right to vote such shares and the right to receive dividends with respect to such shares. However, all cash and stock dividends and distributions shall be held back by the Company for the holder’s account until such time as the related portion of the restricted stock award vests (at which time such dividends or distributions, as applicable, shall be released and paid). The Company does not consider the shares of common stock associated with the RSA’s to be issued and outstanding until vesting occurs.

 

The table below summarizes total remaining stock-based compensation for all outstanding awards:

Fiscal 2027   176,233 
Fiscal 2028   10,290 
Total stock-based compensation  $1,336,706 

 

The aggregate expected stock-based compensation expense remaining to be recognized reflects only awards as of September 30, 2023 and assumes no forfeiture activity and will be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 3.4 years.

INCOME TAXES

NOTE 14. INCOME TAXES

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial statement reported amounts, and for net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company records a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such asset will not be realized. The Company continues to monitor the likelihood that it will be able to recover its deferred tax assets. If recovery is not likely, the Company must increase its provision for income taxes by recording a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets.

 

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with the authoritative guidance on income taxes under which the Company may only recognize or continue to recognize tax positions that meet a “more likely than not” threshold. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of the provision for income taxes.

 

As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s total unrecognized tax benefits were approximately $0.3 million, which would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. The Company will recognize interest and penalties, when they occur, related to uncertain tax positions as a component of tax expense. There is no interest or penalties to be recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022.

 

The Company is required to make its best estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year and use that rate to provide for income taxes on a current year-to-date basis. The Company recorded tax benefit (expense) of $303 thousand and ($226) thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate could fluctuate in the future due to changes in the taxable income mix between various jurisdictions.

 

The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal, various states, Canada and New Zealand tax jurisdictions. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the related tax laws and regulations and require significant judgment to apply. The Company’s U.S. tax years 2018 through 2022 will remain open for examination by the federal and state authorities which is three and four years, respectively. The Company’s tax years from 2018 through 2022 remain open for examination by Canada and New Zealand authorities. As of September 30, 2023, there were no active taxing authority examinations.

Lease Commitments

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use assets, accrued expenses, and long-term operating lease liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. In determining the present value of lease payments, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date. The operating lease right-of-use assets also include any lease payments made at or before the commencement date and are reduced by any lease incentives received. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or not terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise any such options. For the majority of its leases, the Company concluded that it is not reasonably certain that any renewal options would be exercised, and, therefore, the amounts are not recognized as part of operating lease right-of-use assets nor operating lease liabilities. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and expensed as incurred and included within rent expense under general and administrative expense. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term.

 

The Company’s most significant operating leases are real estate leases of office, warehouse and production facilities. The remaining operating leases are primarily comprised of leases of printers and other equipment which are deemed insignificant. For all operating leases, the Company has elected the practical expedient permitted under Topic 842 to combine lease and non-lease components. As a result, non-lease components, such as common area or equipment maintenance charges, are accounted for as a single lease element.

 

 

The Company has one finance lease wherein ownership of the underlying asset will be transferred to the Company at the end of the lease term. The underlying asset of the finance lease is a solar energy system at our Gourmet Foods subsidiary in New Zealand that is included with property, plant and equipment on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

Fixed lease expense payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments vary because of changes in facts or circumstances occurring after the commencement date, other than the passage of time. Certain of the Company’s operating lease agreements include variable payments that are passed through by the landlord, such as insurance, taxes, and common area maintenance. Variable payments are deemed immaterial, expensed as incurred, and included within rent expense under general and administrative expense.

 

The Company leases various facilities and offices throughout the world including the following subsidiary locations:

 

Gourmet Foods has operating leases for its office, factory and warehouse facilities located in Tauranga, New Zealand, and facilities leased by its subsidiary, Printstock, in Napier, New Zealand, as well as for certain equipment including printers and copiers. These leases are generally for three-year terms, with some options to renew for an additional term. The leases mature between August 2024 and October 2026, and require monthly rental payments of approximately $22,843 (GST not included) translated to U.S. currency as of September 30, 2023. Additionally, Gourmet Foods has one finance lease for its solar energy system that ends in December 2031 at the monthly rate (GST not included) of approximately US$1,580 translated as of September 30, 2023. Brigadier leases office and storage facilities in Regina, Saskatchewan. The minimum lease obligations for the Regina facility require monthly payments of approximately US$2,427 translated to U.S. currency as of September 30, 2023. Original Sprout currently leases office and warehouse space in San Clemente, CA with 3-year facility lease expiring on November 30, 2023 and monthly lease payments of $23,625. USCF Investments leases office space in Walnut Creek, California under an operating lease which expires in December 2023. Minimum monthly lease payments are approximately $13,455 with increases annually.

 

For the three month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the combined lease costs, including insignificant variable and short-term lease costs, of the Company and its subsidiaries totaled $205,046 and $198,487, respectively, and recorded under general and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. As of September 30, 2023 the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets included operating lease right-of-use assets totaling $701,248 and $713,360 in total operating lease liabilities.

 

Future minimum consolidated lease payments for The Marygold Companies and its subsidiaries are as follows:

 

Year Ended June 30,  Operating Leases   Finance Lease 
Remainder of fiscal 2024  $328,594   $14,151

The weighted average remaining lease term for the Company’s operating leases was 2.91 years as of June 30, 2023 and a weighted-average discount rate of 5.49% was used to determine the total operating lease liabilities. The remaining lease term for the Company’s finance lease was 8.2 years as of September 30, 2023 with an annual interest rate of 6.99% and a present value discount of 28%.

 

Additionally, Gourmet Foods entered into a General Security Agreement in favor of the Gerald O’Leary Family Trust and registered on the Personal Property Securities Register for a priority sum of NZ$110,000 (approximately US$65,963) to secure the lease of its primary facility. In addition, a NZ$20,000 (approximately US$11,993) bond has been posted through ANZ Bank and secured with a cash deposit of equal amount to secure a separate facilities lease. The General Security Agreement and the cash deposit will remain until such time as the respective leases are satisfactorily terminated in accordance with their terms. Interest from the cash deposit securing the lease accumulates to the benefit of Gourmet Foods and is listed as a component of interest income/expense on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

 

 

Other Agreements and Commitments

 

One of the funds, UNL managed by USCF, had expense waiver provisions during current and prior fiscal years, whereby USCF reimburses funds when fund expenditure levels exceed certain threshold amounts. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 the expense waiver payable for the UNL fund was $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively. USCF has no obligation to continue such payments for UNL into subsequent periods.

 

As Marygold builds out its application, it enters into agreements with various service providers. As of September 30, 2023, Marygold has future payment commitments with its primary service vendors totaling $1.5 million including approximately $1.1 million due during the remainder of fiscal 2024 and $0.4 million due in fiscal 2025.

 

Litigation

 

From time to time, the Company and its subsidiaries may be involved in legal proceedings arising primarily from the ordinary course of their respective businesses. Except as described below, there are no pending legal proceedings against the Company. USCF is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. USCF, as the general partner of the United States Oil Fund, LP (“USO”) and the general partner and sponsor of the related public funds may, from time to time, be involved in litigation arising out of its operations in the ordinary course of business. Except as described herein, USO and USCF are not currently party to any material legal proceedings.

 

Settlement of SEC and CFTC Investigations

 

On November 8, 2021, USCF and USO announced a resolution with each of the SEC and the CFTC relating to matters set forth in certain Wells Notices issued by the staffs of each of the SEC and CFTC as more fully described below.

 

On August 17, 2020, USCF, USO, and John Love received a “Wells Notice” from the staff of the SEC (the “SEC Wells Notice”). The SEC Wells Notice stated that the SEC staff made a preliminary determination to recommend that the SEC file an enforcement action against USCF, USO, and Mr. Love alleging violations of Sections 17(a)(1) and 17(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), and Rule 10b-5 thereunder.

 

Subsequently, on August 19, 2020, USCF, USO, and Mr. Love received a Wells Notice from the staff of the CFTC (the “CFTC Wells Notice”). The CFTC Wells Notice stated that the CFTC staff made a preliminary determination to recommend that the CFTC file an enforcement action against USCF, USO, and Mr. Love alleging violations of Sections 4o(1)(A) and (B) and 6(c)(1) of the Commodity Exchange Act of 1936, as amended (the “CEA”), 7 U.S.C. §§ 6o(1)(A) and (B) and 9(1) (2018), and CFTC Regulations 4.26, 4.41, and 180.1(a), 17 C.F.R. §§ 4.26, 4.41, 180.1(a) (2019).

 

On November 8, 2021, acting pursuant to an offer of settlement submitted by USCF and USO, the SEC issued an order instituting cease-and-desist proceedings, making findings, and imposing a cease-and-desist order pursuant to Section 8A of the 1933 Act, directing USCF and USO to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of Section 17(a)(3) of the 1933 Act, 15 U.S.C. § 77q(a)(3) (the SEC Order). In the SEC Order, the SEC made findings that, from April 24, 2020 to May 21, 2020, USCF and USO violated Section 17(a)(3) of 1933 Act, which provides that it is “unlawful for any person in the offer or sale of any securities to engage in any transaction, practice, or course of business which operates or would operate as a fraud or deceit upon the purchaser.” USCF and USO consented to entry of the SEC Order without admitting or denying the findings contained therein, except as to jurisdiction.

 

Separately, on November 8, 2021, acting pursuant to an offer of settlement submitted by USCF, the CFTC issued an order instituting cease-and-desist proceedings, making findings, and imposing a cease-and-desist order pursuant to Section 6(c) and (d) of the CEA, directing USCF to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of Section 4o(1)(B) of the CEA, 7 U.S.C. § 6o(1)(B), and CFTC Regulation 4.41(a)(2), 17 C.F.R. § 4.41(a)(2) (the “CFTC Order”). In the CFTC Order, the CFTC made findings that, from on or about April 22, 2020 to June 12, 2020, USCF violated Section 4o(1)(B) of the CEA and CFTC Regulation 4.41(a)(2), which make it unlawful for any commodity pool operator (“CPO”) to engage in “any transaction, practice, or course of business which operates as a fraud or deceit upon any client or participant or prospective client or participant” and prohibit a CPO from advertising in a manner which “operates as a fraud or deceit upon any client or participant or prospective client or participant,” respectively. USCF consented to entry of the CFTC Order without admitting or denying the findings contained therein, except as to jurisdiction.

 

Pursuant to the SEC Order and the CFTC Order, in addition to the command to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of Section 17(a)(3) of the 1933 Act, Section 4o(1)(B) of the CEA, and CFTC Regulation 4.14(a)(2), civil monetary penalties totaling two million five hundred thousand dollars ($2,500,000) in the aggregate were required to be paid to the SEC and CFTC, of which one million two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($1,250,000) was paid by USCF to each of the SEC and the CFTC, respectively, pursuant to the offsets permitted under the orders.

 

 

In re: United States Oil Fund, LP Securities Litigation

 

On June 19, 2020, USCF, USO, John P. Love, and Stuart P. Crumbaugh were named as defendants in a putative class action filed by purported shareholder Robert Lucas (the “Lucas Class Action”). The Court thereafter consolidated the Lucas Class Action with two related putative class actions filed on July 31, 2020 and August 13, 2020, and appointed a lead plaintiff. The consolidated class action is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York under the caption In re: United States Oil Fund, LP Securities Litigation, Civil Action No. 1:20-cv-04740.

 

On November 30, 2020, the lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint (the “Amended Lucas Class Complaint”). The Amended Lucas Class Complaint asserts claims under the 1933 Act, the Exchange Act, and Rule 10b-5. The Amended Lucas Class Complaint challenges statements in registration statements that became effective on February 25, 2020 and March 23, 2020 as well as subsequent public statements through April 2020 concerning certain extraordinary market conditions and the attendant risks that caused the demand for oil to fall precipitously, including the COVID-19 global pandemic and the Saudi Arabia-Russia oil price war. The Amended Lucas Class Complaint purports to have been brought by an investor in USO on behalf of a class of similarly-situated shareholders who purchased USO securities between February 25, 2020 and April 28, 2020 and pursuant to the challenged registration statements. The Amended Lucas Class Complaint seeks to certify a class and to award the class compensatory damages at an amount to be determined at trial as well as costs and attorney’s fees. The Amended Lucas Class Complaint named as defendants USCF, USO, John P. Love, Stuart P. Crumbaugh, Nicholas D. Gerber, Andrew F Ngim, Robert L. Nguyen, Peter M. Robinson, Gordon L. Ellis, and Malcolm R. Fobes III, as well as the marketing agent, ALPS Distributors, Inc., and the Authorized Participants: ABN Amro, BNP Paribas Securities Corporation, Citadel Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets, Inc., Credit Suisse Securities USA LLC, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Goldman Sachs & Company, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., Merrill Lynch Professional Clearing Corporation, Morgan Stanley & Company Inc., Nomura Securities International Inc., RBC Capital Markets LLC, SG Americas Securities LLC, UBS Securities LLC, and Virtu Financial BD LLC.

 

The lead plaintiff has filed a notice of voluntary dismissal of its claims against BNP Paribas Securities Corporation, Citadel Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Credit Suisse Securities USA LLC, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Morgan Stanley & Company, Inc., Nomura Securities International, Inc., RBC Capital Markets, LLC, SG Americas Securities LLC, and UBS Securities LLC.

 

USCF, USO, and the individual defendants in In re: United States Oil Fund, LP Securities Litigation intend to vigorously contest such claims and have moved for their dismissal. No accrual has been recorded with respect to the above legal matters as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023. We are currently unable to predict the timing or outcome of, or reasonably estimate the possible losses or range of, possible losses resulting from these matters. It is reasonably possible that this estimate will change in the near term. An adverse outcome regarding these matters could materially adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 

Mehan Action

 

On August 10, 2020, purported shareholder Darshan Mehan filed a derivative action on behalf of nominal defendant USO, against defendants USCF, John P. Love, Stuart P. Crumbaugh, Nicholas D. Gerber, Andrew F Ngim, Robert L. Nguyen, Peter M. Robinson, Gordon L. Ellis, and Malcolm R. Fobes, III (the “Mehan Action”). The action is pending in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Alameda as Case No. RG20070732.

 

The Mehan Action alleges that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to USO and failed to act in good faith in connection with a March 19, 2020 registration statement and offering and disclosures regarding certain extraordinary market conditions that caused demand for oil to fall precipitously, including the COVID-19 global pandemic and the Saudi Arabia-Russia oil price war. The complaint seeks, on behalf of USO, compensatory damages, restitution, equitable relief, attorney’s fees, and costs. All proceedings in the Mehan Action are stayed pending disposition of the motion(s) to dismiss in In re: United States Oil Fund, LP Securities Litigation.

 

USCF, USO, and the other defendants intend to vigorously contest such claims.

 

In re United States Oil Fund, LP Derivative Litigation

 

On August 27, 2020, purported shareholders Michael Cantrell and AML Pharm. Inc. DBA Golden International filed two separate derivative actions on behalf of nominal defendant USO, against defendants USCF, John P. Love, Stuart P. Crumbaugh, Andrew F Ngim, Gordon L. Ellis, Malcolm R. Fobes, III, Nicholas D. Gerber, Robert L. Nguyen, and Peter M. Robinson in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York at Civil Action No. 1:20-cv-06974 (the “Cantrell Action”) and Civil Action No. 1:20-cv-06981 (the “AML Action”), respectively.

 

 

The complaints in the Cantrell and AML Actions are nearly identical. They each allege violations of Sections 10(b), 20(a) and 21D of the Exchange Act, Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and common law claims of breach of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and waste of corporate assets. These allegations stem from USO’s disclosures and defendants’ alleged actions in light of the extraordinary market conditions in 2020 that caused demand for oil to fall precipitously, including the COVID-19 global pandemic and the Saudi Arabia-Russia oil price war. The complaints seek, on behalf of USO, compensatory damages, restitution, equitable relief, attorney’s fees, and costs. The plaintiffs in the Cantrell and AML Actions have marked their actions as related to the Lucas Class Action.

 

The Court consolidated the Cantrell and AML Actions under the caption In re United States Oil Fund, LP Derivative Litigation, Civil Action No. 1:20-cv-06974 and appointed co-lead counsel. All proceedings in In re United States Oil Fund, LP Derivative Litigation are stayed pending disposition of the motion(s) to dismiss in In re: United States Oil Fund, LP Securities Litigation.

 

USCF, USO, and the other defendants intend to vigorously contest the claims in In re United States Oil Fund, LP Derivative Litigation.

 

Optimum Strategies Action

 

On April 6, 2022, USO and USCF were named as defendants in an action filed by Optimum Strategies Fund I, LP, a purported investor in call option contracts on USO (the “Optimum Strategies Action”). The action was in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut at Civil Action No. 3:22-cv-00511.

 

The Optimum Strategies Action asserted claims under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and the Connecticut Uniform Securities Act (“CUSA”). It purported to challenge statements in registration statements that became effective in February 2020, March 2020, and on April 20, 2020, as well as public statements between February 2020 and May 2020, in connection with certain extraordinary market conditions and the attendant risks that caused the demand for oil to fall precipitously, including the COVID-19 global pandemic and the Saudi Arabia-Russia oil price war. The complaint was seeking damages, interest, costs, attorney’s fees, and equitable relief.

 

On March 15, 2023, the court granted the USO defendants’ motion to dismiss the complaint. In its ruling, the court granted the USO defendants’ motion to dismiss, with prejudice, the plaintiff’s claims under Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and a claim for control person liability under Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act. Having dismissed all claims over which the court had original jurisdiction, the court declined to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over the plaintiff’s state law claim under CUSA and dismissed the claim without prejudice. No notice of appeal was filed.

 

No accrual has been recorded with respect to the above legal matters as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023. We are currently unable to predict the timing or outcome of, or reasonably estimate the possible losses or range of, possible losses resulting from these matters. It is reasonably possible that this estimate will change in the near term. An adverse outcome regarding these matters could materially adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

SEGMENT REPORTING

NOTE 16. SEGMENT REPORTING

 

With the acquisition of USCF Investments, Gourmet Foods, Brigadier, Tiger, the launch of the Original Sprout business unit of Kahnalytics, and the transition of Marygold to an operating company as of July 1, 2023, the Company has identified seven segments for its products and services; U.S.A. investment fund management, U.S.A. beauty products, New Zealand food industry, Canada security alarm systems, and Financial services. For clarity in segment reporting, the assets and results of operations of Marygold U.S.A. and Marygold U.K. are separated while they are combined on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as financial services. The Company’s reportable segments are business units located in different global regions. The Company’s operations in the U.S.A. include the manufacture and wholesale distribution of hair and skin care products by Original Sprout, the income derived from management of various investment funds by our subsidiary USCF Investments, and the income from investment advisory and transaction fees earned by Marygold U.SA. In New Zealand operations include the production, packaging and distribution on a commercial scale of gourmet meat pies and related bakery confections, and the printing of specialized food wrappers through our wholly-owned subsidiary Gourmet Foods, Ltd. and their subsidiary, Printstock. In Canada, the Company provides security alarm system installation and maintenance services to residential and commercial customers sold through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Brigadier. Our subsidiary in the U.K., Marygold UK, earns management fees through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tiger, as an investment advisor and asset manager. Separate management of each segment is required because each business unit is subject to different operational issues and strategies due to their particular regional location. The Company accounts for intra-company sales and expenses as if the sales or expenses were to third parties and eliminates them in the consolidation. Amounts are adjusted for currency translation as of the balance sheet date and presented in US dollars.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation and Accounting Principles

Basis of Presentation and Accounting Principles

 

The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited financial statements on a consolidated basis. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, related statements of income and comprehensive income, and cash flows include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, necessary for their fair presentation, prepared on an accrual basis, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with information included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for year ended June 30, 2023 and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on September 25, 2023.

 
Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements, which are referred herein as the “Financial Statements”, include the accounts of The Marygold Companies and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, USCF Investments, Gourmet Foods, Brigadier, Original Sprout, Marygold and Marygold UK are presented on a consolidated basis.

 

All inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

 
Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 
Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less on the date of purchase. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in financial institutions in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and New Zealand. Accounts in the United States are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000 per depositor, accounts in Canada are insured by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation up to CD$100,000 per depositor and accounts in the United Kingdom are insured by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme up to £85,000. Accounts in New Zealand are uninsured. The Company has, at times, held deposits in excess of insured amounts, but the Company does not expect any losses in such accounts.

 
Accounts Receivable, net and Accounts Receivable – Related Parties

Accounts Receivable, net and Accounts Receivable – Related Parties

 

Accounts receivable, net consist of receivables related to the Brigadier, Gourmet Foods and Original Sprout businesses. Management regularly reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes customer credit worthiness, customer concentrations, current economic trends, changes in customer payment patterns, and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future to determine whether or not an account should be deemed uncollectible. Reserves, if any, are recorded on a specific identification basis. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the Company had $213 and $1,427, respectively, reserved for as allowance for credit losses.

 

Accounts receivable – related parties consist of fund asset management fees receivable related to the USCF Investments business. Management fees receivable generally consist of one month of management fees which are collected in the month after they are earned. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, there is no allowance for credit losses as all amounts are deemed collectible.

 
Major Customers and Suppliers – Concentration of Credit Risk

Major Customers and Suppliers – Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Marygold Companies, as a holding company, operates through its wholly-owned subsidiaries and has no concentration of risk either from customers or suppliers as a stand-alone entity. Marygold, as a newly formed development stage entity, had not commenced operations for the year ended June 30, 2023. Any transactions that did occur were combined with those of The Marygold Companies for periods prior to June 30, 2023.

 

Our subsidiary USCF Investments relies on the revenues generated through the various funds it manages. The concentration of fund management revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and related receivables as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 were as follows:

 

   For the Three Months Ended   For the Three Months Ended 
   September 30, 2023   September 30, 2022 
   Revenue   Revenue

Total  $1,669,886    100%  $1,673,895    100%

 

 

The Marygold Companies, through Gourmet Foods and its wholly owned subsidiary, Printstock Products Limited, has two major customer groups comprising gross revenues: 1) baking, and 2) printing. For the purpose of segment reporting (Note 16), both revenue streams are considered part of the same “food industry” segment as they are evaluated as one segment by the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker.

 

Baking: Within the baking sector there are three major customer groups; 1) grocery, 2) gasoline convenience stores, and 3) independent retailers. The grocery industry is dominated by several large chain operations, which are customers of Gourmet Foods, and there are no long-term guarantees that these major customers will continue to purchase products from Gourmet Foods, however, many of the existing relationships have been in place for sufficient time to give management reasonable confidence in their continuing business.

 

In the gasoline convenience store market customer group, Gourmet Foods supplies major consortiums of gasoline convenience stores who operate under various name brands.

 

The third major customer group is independent retailers and cafes, which collectively accounted for the balance of baking sales revenue. Although some customers contributed significant revenues to Gourmet Foods, no single customer contributed a significant amount of revenues to the consolidated Company for the three month periods ending September 30, 2023 and 2022. One customer did account for 10% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of September 30, 2023 and was insignificant as of June 30, 2023.

 

Printing: The printing sector of Gourmet Foods’ gross revenues is comprised of many customers, some large and some small, with no single customer accounting for a significant portion of the Company’s consolidated revenues. One customer accounted for 17% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of September 30, 2023 as compared to 12% as of June 30, 2023. One other customer accounted for 11% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023, however was insignificant as of September 30, 2023.

 

Gourmet Foods, including Printstock, is not dependent upon any one major supplier as many alternative sources are available in the local marketplace should the need arise. However, the unavailability of, or increase in price in, any of the ingredients on which Gourmet Foods relies to produce its products could harm its operating results for such period.

 

The Marygold Companies, through Brigadier, is partially dependent upon its contractual relationship with the alarm monitoring company who provides monitoring services to Brigadier’s customers. In the event this contract is terminated, Brigadier would be compelled to find an alternate source of alarm monitoring, or establish such a facility itself. Management believes that the contractual relationship is sustainable, and has been for many years, with alternate solutions available should the need arise. This monitoring company accounted for 12% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of September 30, 2023 and 11% at June 30, 2023. A customer accounted for 12% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of June 30, 2023 and was insignificant as of September 30, 2023.

 

Brigadier purchases alarm panels, digital and analog cameras, mounting hardware and accessory items needed to complete security installations from a variety of sources. The manufacture of electronic items such as those sought by Brigadier has expanded to a global scale thus providing Brigadier with a broad choice of suppliers. Brigadier bases its vendor selection on several criteria including: price, availability, shipping costs, quality, suitability for purpose and the technical support of the manufacturer. Brigadier is not reliant on any one supplier.

 

The Marygold Companies, through Original Sprout, sells its products through 3 channels to market: 1) direct sales to end users via online shopping carts, 2) sales through international wholesale distributors who, in turn, sell to other retailers or wholesalers, and 3) to retail stores selling to end users either from the shelf or online. No single customer contributed significant sales revenues to the Company’s consolidated revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. No single customer contributed a significant amount to the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of September 30, 2023 or as of June 30, 2023.

 

 

The Marygold Companies, through Original Sprout, is dependent upon its relationships with product packaging companies who, at the direction of Original Sprout, produce the products in accordance with proprietary formulas, packages them in appropriate containers, and delivers the finished goods to Original Sprout for distribution to its customers. Original Sprout strives to maintain at least two packaging companies at all times, thus if one relationship were to fail the other would be able to continue to supply services. Because of the nature of the Original Sprout product ingredients, some of the ingredients may, at times, be difficult to source in timely fashion or at the expected price point. To safeguard against this possibility, Original Sprout endeavors to maintain at least a 90-day supply of all products in stock. Estimating and maintaining a reserve stock account is not a guarantee that a shortage of ingredient supplies will not affect production such that Original Sprout will not exhaust its reserves or be unable to fulfill customer orders.

 

The Marygold Companies, through Marygold UK and its wholly owned subsidiary, Tiger Financial and Asset Management (“Tiger”), identifies its concentration of risk as the reliance on a relatively small number of clients to continue their relationship with Tiger as their investment advisor. Tiger acts as an investment advisor and financial planner to its clients and has two principal revenue streams which comprise ongoing fees for providing investment advice, and commissions for the intermediation of insurance-based products. Tiger does not provide investment management services directly, rather the clients’ assets are referred to third party investment managers, primarily discretionary investment managers, and Tiger receives fees for the ongoing advice and financial planning services which are charged as a percentage of the assets under management. Should the relationship with the current investment manager come to an end, management is confident that a similar arrangement can be easily made with alternative investment managers. Tiger advises approximately 50 families/clients who collectively account for approximately $40 million in assets under management as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023. No single client accounted for a significant portion of the Company’s consolidated revenues. Marygold UK does not recognize any credit risk for accounts receivable. Marygold UK is seeking to further diversify its client base through ongoing outreach initiatives and, in the long term, add to its revenue streams through the development of the Marygold fintech app.

 
Inventories

Inventories

 

Inventories, consisting primarily of; (i) food products, printing supplies, and packaging in New Zealand, (ii) hair and skin care finished products and components in the U.S., (iii) security system hardware in Canada, and (iv) printed debit cards and wearables at Marygold are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventories in Canada and New Zealand are maintained on the first-in, first-out method, while inventory in the U.S is maintained using the average cost method. Inventories include product cost, inbound freight and warehousing costs where applicable. Management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value and an allowance is made for writing down the inventories to their net realizable value, if lower. An assessment is made at the end of each fiscal quarter to determine what slow-moving inventory items, if any, should be deemed obsolete and written down to their estimated net realizable value. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the expense for slow-moving or obsolete inventory was $0 and $0, respectively.

 
Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; additions, renewals and leasehold improvements are capitalized. Office furniture and equipment include office fixtures, computers, printers and other office equipment plus software and applicable packaging designs. Leasehold improvements, which are included in plant and equipment, are depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the improvement and the length of the lease. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset (see Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

 

Category   Estimated Useful Life (in years)  
Building     39  
Plant and equipment:     5 to 10  
Furniture and office equipment     3 to 5  
Vehicles     3 to 5  

 

 
Intangible Assets

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets consist of brand names, domain names, recipes, non-compete agreements and customer lists along with the internally developed software in process for the business applications of Marygold which launched in the latter part of June 2023, and the U.K. regulatory certification acquired by Marygold UK in the Tiger purchase transaction. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the estimated useful life and are evaluated for impairment at least on an annual basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. When it is determined that an indefinite intangible asset is impaired, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. There was no impairment recorded for the three month period ended September 30, 2023 or the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

 
Goodwill

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the aggregate purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination transaction. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter of the Company’s fiscal year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may be impaired. The Company first performs a qualitative test to determine if goodwill is impaired at a reporting unit. In performing this test, the Company evaluates macroeconomic factors, industry and market considerations, cost factors such as the increase in the cost of materials or labor or other costs, overall financial performance, changes in key personnel or customers or strategy, and other entity-specific events or trends that could indicate impairment, among other items. If the results of this test indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting is below its carrying value, a quantitative test is then performed to determine the amount of the impairment. When impaired, the carrying value of goodwill is written down to fair value. There was no impairment recorded for the three month period ended September 30, 2023 or the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company tests long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value. There was no impairment recorded for the three month period ended September 30, 2023 or the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

 
Investments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Investments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Equity securities included in short-term investments are classified as available-for-sale securities and debt securities are classified as trading securities. The Company measures the investments at fair value at period end with any changes in fair value reflected as unrealized gains or (losses) which is included as part of other (expense) income in the consolidated statements of income. The Company values its investments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurement. The changes to past practice resulting from the application of ASC 820 relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurement. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between: (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company (observable inputs) and (2) The Company’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available under the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The three levels defined by the ASC 820 hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 assets include the following: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market-corroborated inputs).

 

Level 3 – Unobservable pricing input at the measurement date for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs shall be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.

 

In some instances, the inputs used to measure fair value might fall within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest input level that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

 

 
Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

 

The Company from time to time will issue warrant instruments to purchase common stock and accounts for warrant instruments as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the specific terms of the warrants and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). Generally, warrants issued in connection with debt and equity financings are presented as a component of equity unless the warrants include a conditional obligation to issue a variable number of shares among other conditions, or it is possible that the Company may need to settle the warrants in cash, in which instance the warrants would be accounted for as non-current liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 all outstanding warrants are classified as equity instruments.

 
Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock-based compensation expense is measured based on grant date at fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model for stock options and the grant date closing stock price for restricted stock awards. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting term of four to five years. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

 
Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue consists of fees earned through management of investment funds in the United States and in the United Kingdom primarily based on assets under management (“AUM”), sales of gourmet meat pies and printing of food wrappers in New Zealand, sales of security alarm system installation and maintenance services in Canada, and sales of hair and skin care products internationally. Revenue is accounted for net of sales taxes, sales returns, and trade discounts. The performance obligation is satisfied when the product has been shipped and title, risk of loss and rewards of ownership have been transferred. For most of the Company’s product sales or services, the revenue recognition criteria described below are met at the time the product is shipped, the subscription period commences, or the management services are provided. For our Brigadier subsidiary in Canada, the Company operates under contract with an alarm monitoring company that pays a percentage of its recurring monitoring fee to Brigadier in exchange for continued customer service and support functions with respect to each customer maintained under contract by the monitoring company. The Company has no costs of contracts which require capitalization. The Company’s only contract assets are accounts receivable, net, and accounts receivable – related parties. The Company has no contract liabilities other than deposits received periodically which are insignificant to the consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company generates revenue, in part, through contractual monthly recurring fees received for providing ongoing customer support services to monitoring company clientele. The five-step process governing contract revenue reporting includes:

 

1. Identifying the contract(s) with customers

2. Identifying the performance obligations in the contract

3. Determining the transaction price

4. Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

5. Recognizing revenue when or as the performance obligation is satisfied

 

Transactions involve security systems that are sold outright to the customer where the Company’s performance obligations include customer support services and the sale and installation of the security systems. For such arrangements, the Company allocates a portion of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative stand-alone selling price. Revenue associated with the sale and installation of security systems is recognized once installation is complete, and is reflected as security system revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Revenue associated with customer support services is recognized as those services are provided, and is included as a component of security system revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, which for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, were approximately $73,422 and $82,960, or approximately 13% and 13%, respectively, of the total security system revenues. These revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 accounted for approximately 1% of total consolidated revenues. None of the other subsidiaries of the Company generate revenues from long-term contracts.

 

Because the Company has no contract with the end user, and the monthly payments for customer support services are made to the Company by the monitoring company who has a contract with the end user, and end user customers are subject to cancellation through no control of the Company; therefore, no deferred revenues or contingent liability reserves have been established with respect to these contracts. The services are deemed delivered as the obligation is acknowledged on a monthly basis.

 

 
Income Taxes

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits or if future deductibility is uncertain.

 

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Applicable interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as additional income taxes in the statements of income.

 
Advertising Costs

Advertising Costs

 

The Company expenses the cost of advertising as incurred. Marketing and advertising costs for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 were $1.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

 
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

We record foreign currency translation adjustments and transaction gains and losses in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. The accounts of Gourmet Foods use the New Zealand dollar as the functional currency. The accounts of Brigadier Security System use the Canadian dollar as the functional currency, and the accounts of Marygold UK use the Great Britain pound as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date, and operating results are translated at the weighted average exchange rate throughout the period. Foreign currency transaction gains and (losses) can also occur if a transaction is settled in a currency other than the entity’s functional currency. Accumulated currency translation gains and (losses) are classified as an item of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the stockholders’ equity section of the consolidated balance sheet.

 
Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting

 

The Company defines operating segments as components for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performances. The Company allocates its resources and assesses the performance of its sales activities based on these segments (Refer to Note 16 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

 
Business Combinations

Business Combinations

 

We allocate the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from acquired users, acquired trade names from a market participant perspective, useful lives and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which is one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and year ended June 30, 2023 a determination was made that no adjustments were necessary.

 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Board Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-10, and ASU 2019-11, which replace the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected credit loss model and require a financial asset measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The new guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022 (as amended by ASU 2019-10), including interim periods within that annual period. The Company adopted the standard during the quarter ending September 30, 2023 with the additional disclosures and no changes related to the period of recognition of losses on its receivables.

 

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The amendment is meant to simplify the accounting for convertible instruments by removing certain separation models in subtopic 470-20 for convertible instruments. The amendment also changed the method used to calculate diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) for convertible instruments and for instruments that may be settled in cash. The amendment is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods for those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for periods beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company anticipates the adoption of the standard will not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures given its current and anticipated operations.
