YERBAÉ BRANDS CORP.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2024

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 - NATURE AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Yerbaé Brands Corp. (“Yerbaé” and, together with its subsidiary, the “Company”. “we”, or “us”) is a corporation existing under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (“BCBCA”). Yerbaé’s principal subsidiaries are Yerbaé Brands Co. (“Yerbaé USA”) and Yerbaé LLC of which Yerbaé owns 100% interests in. Yerbaé is a beverage manufacturer focusing on the development and distribution of plant-based energy drinks and seltzers.

 

On May 19, 2022, Yerbaé (formerly Kona Bay Technologies Inc. (“Kona Bay”)) entered into a definitive arrangement agreement and plan of merger, as amended on August 31, 2022 and February 8, 2023, with Yerbaé USA, Kona Bay Technologies (Delaware) Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary of the Company, 1362283 B.C. Ltd. (“FinCo”), a wholly-owned British Columbia subsidiary of Kona Bay, Todd Gibson and Karrie Gibson, pursuant to which Kona Bay proposed to complete a business combination with Yerbaé USA via the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding securities of Yerbaé USA from the securityholders (collectively, the “Original Yerbaé Securityholders”) of Yerbaé USA (the “Transaction”). The Transaction was subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) and constituted a reverse takeover of Kona Bay by Yerbaé USA as defined in TSXV Policy 5.2 – Change of Business and Reverse Takeovers.

 

On February 8, 2023, Yerbaé completed the Transaction with Yerbaé USA by way of a reverse merger conducted pursuant to: (i) the provisions of the Delaware General Corporations Law (“DGCL”) in which Merger Sub merged with and into Yerbaé USA, and (ii) a plan of arrangement conducted pursuant to the provisions of the BCBCA, which resulted in the amalgamation of Kona Bay with FinCo. In connection with the closing of the Transaction, Yerbaé (formerly, Kona Bay Technologies Inc.) consolidated its issued and outstanding common shares (each, a “Common Share”) on the basis of 5.8 pre-consolidation Common Shares for every one post-consolidation Common Share and changed its name from “Kona Bay Technologies Inc.” to “Yerbaé Brands Corp.”

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and include Yerbaé and its subsidiaries and include the accounts of all majority owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control and, when applicable, entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company had the following wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries as of September 30, 2024:

  

Subsidiary   Date of Incorporation   Jurisdiction of Incorporation   Ownership Percentage   Direct or Indirect Ownership
Yerbaé Brands Co.   August 21, 2020   Delaware   100%   Direct
Yerbaé LLC(1)   May 18, 2016   Delaware   100%   Indirect

 

(1)Yerbaé LLC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Yerbaé Brands Co.

 

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the company’s latest consolidated annual financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2023 that was filed in our Form 10 filed with the SEC on July 19, 2024. In general, disclosure provided in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not repeat the disclosure provided in the Company’s most recent audited consolidated annual financial statements. However, these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim period presented.

Going Concern

 

Yerbaé’s evaluation of its ability to continue as a going concern requires it to evaluate its future sources and uses of cash sufficient to fund its currently expected operations in conducting business activities one year from the date its unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are issued. Yerbaé evaluates the probability associated with each source and use of cash resources in making its going concern determination.

 

Due to our recurring losses, the ongoing challenging market conditions for beverage companies and our limited cash balance as of September 30, 2024, management believes that it is probable that the Company will be unable to meet its obligations as they come due within one year after the date that the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are issued. While the Company is attempting to plan additional financings, including equity and debt, which are intended to mitigate the conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, those financings may not occur. If the financings do not occur, management will try and implement alternative arrangements, and such arrangements could have a potentially significant negative impact on the current net asset value of the Company. These alternatives include: (1) raising additional capital by means other than those planned through equity and/or debt financing; and/or (2) entering into new commercial relationships to help fund future expenses.

 

As a result of the Company’s recurring losses from operations, and the need for additional financing to fund its operating and capital requirements within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued, there is uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to maintain liquidity sufficient to operate its business effectively, which raises substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Management Estimates

 

The preparation of the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, including the potential future effects of macroeconomic trends and events, such as inflation and interest rate levels; supply chain disruptions; uncertainty from potential recessionary effects; climate-related matters; market, industry and regulatory factors, including permitting issues; global events, such as the ongoing military conflicts in Ukraine and the middle east; and public health matters. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the Company’s operating results and the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. While management believes that such estimates are reasonable when considered in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial position and results of operations taken as a whole, actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

General Note

 

In accordance with Rule 10-01(a)(5) of Regulation S-X, the Company has not provided summary of significant accounting policy disclosure which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in our most recent annual report included in our Form 10 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 19, 2024.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined on a first-in/first-out basis. The cost of inventory includes material and manufacturing costs. Inventoriable costs are expensed to cost of goods sold on the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statement of operations in the same period as finished products are sold. The amount of any write-down of inventory to net realizable value and all losses of inventory are recognized as an expense in the period when the write-down or loss. No write downs were recognized during the three and nine month interim reporting periods ended September 30, 2024 or September 30, 2023. Further, we establish a reserve related to shrinkage. The reserve is adjusted at the end of each reporting period as needed.

 

8
 

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

Management regularly reviews property and equipment and other long-lived assets for possible impairment. This review occurs annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If there is an indication of impairment, management then prepares an estimate of future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value. The fair value is estimated using the present value of the future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with management’s estimates of the business risks. Preparation of estimated expected future cash flows is inherently subjective and is based on management’s best estimate of assumptions concerning expected future conditions. No impairments were recognized during the three and nine month interim periods ended September 30, 2024 or September 30, 2023.

 

Fair Value Measurement

 

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

 

Level 1: Observable inputs based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions. While the Company does not have any financial instruments that are measured to fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis, it does have financial instruments, such as cash, notes payable, and the line of credit as of both September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023.

 

The Company’s financial instruments as of September 30, 2024 included cash, accounts receivables, accounts payable, related party notes payable and notes payable. The stated amounts of cash, accounts receivables and accounts payable represent fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. Further, the stated amount of the related party notes payable and notes payable, which are classified as level 3 instruments, also represent fair value due the notes being issued at currently prevailing market rates.

 

Notes Payable

 

The Company recognizes its note payables in accordance with the guidance in ASC 470 Debt. When there is no stated interest rate on the note payable, or the note payable includes an original issue discount, the Company determines the interest rate utilizing the interest method outlined in ASC 835 Interest. In accordance with the ASC topic, original issue discounts are recognized as a debt discount and amortized to interest expense over the estimated life of the loan. Finally, note payables are classified as either current or non-current in accordance with the guidance in ASC 210 Balance Sheet and ASC 470 Debt.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures-In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires a public entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. Additionally, it requires a public entity to disclose the title and position of the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. A public entity should apply the amendments in this ASU retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Yerbaé expects this ASU to only impact its disclosures with no impact to the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

 

Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures-In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which focuses on the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU No. 2023-09 requires a public business entity (“PBE”) to disclose, on an annual basis, a tabular rate reconciliation using both percentages and currency amounts, broken out into specified categories with certain reconciling items further broken out by nature and jurisdiction to the extent those items exceed a specified threshold. In addition, all entities are required to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds received disaggregated by federal, state/local, and foreign and by jurisdiction if the amount is at least 5% of total income tax payments, net of refunds received. For PBEs, the new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. An entity may apply the amendments in this ASU prospectively by providing the revised disclosures for the period ending December 31, 2025, and continuing to provide the pre-ASU disclosures for the prior periods or may apply the amendments retrospectively by providing the revised disclosures for all period presented. Yerbaé expects this ASU to only impact its disclosures with no impact to the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.

 

NOTE 3 - REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

 

The Company is in the business of manufacturing plant-based beverages and derives its revenues from one primary source-product sales. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control of the goods are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods.

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the five-step model outlined in ASC 606-Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Specifically, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of Yerbaé product to our customers by applying the following steps:

 

  1. Identify the contract(s) with a customer
  2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract
  3. Determine the transaction price
  4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
  5. Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation

 

The Company’s contracts with customers contain a single performance obligation consisting of providing Yerbaé energy drinks. As it pertains to the single performance obligation, the Company does not recognize any contract assets or contract liabilities as it does not: (1) have a right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that the entity has transferred to a customer when the right is conditioned on something other than the passage or (2) receive payment prior to performing.

 

The Company typically satisfies its performance obligations at a point time upon the occurrence of delivery of the product to the customer. Further, payment is typically received within 60 days after product delivery and does not include a significant financing component.

 

10
 

 

The Company’s contracts with customers include variable consideration including customer rebates and quick pay discounts. The Company estimates variable consideration, which it does not consider to be constrained, using either the most likely amount or expected value methods depending on the type of variable consideration.

 

The Company only provides refunds for products that are damaged during delivery to the customer. However, instances of refunds are rare and have not historically had a material impact on the Company’s results of operations. Finally, Yerbaé has made an accounting policy election to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the entity from a customer.

 

In addition to variable consideration, the Company also provides payments to certain customers for slotting fees. In accordance with the guidance in ASC 606-10-32, the Company determined that the payment is not in exchange for a distinct good or service and it is therefore recognized as a reduction to the transaction price. As the slotting fee payment covers the life of the contract with a customer, the initial payment is recognized as an asset and is amortized as a reduction to revenue on a rational and reasonable basis over the estimated life of the contract.

 

Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer

 

The Company does not recognize any assets related to either costs to obtain or fulfil a contract with a customer. We incur certain delivery costs prior to transferring control of Yerbaé product to our customers (i.e. outbound freight). In accordance with the guidance in ASC 606-10-25, those costs are recognized as a fulfilment cost as they are provided prior to transferring control of the Yerbaé product to our customer (i.e. akin to shipping and handling). Further, the costs are classified in general and administrative within the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statement of operations.

 

NOTE 4 - REVERSE RECAPITALIZATION

 

On February 8, 2023, Yerbaé completed the Transaction with Yerbaé USA by way of a reverse merger conducted pursuant to: (i) the provisions of the Delaware General Corporations Law (“DGCL”) in which Merger Sub merged with and into Yerbaé USA, and (ii) a plan of arrangement conducted pursuant to the provisions of the BCBCA, which resulted in the amalgamation of Kona Bay with FinCo. In connection with the Closing, Yerbaé (formerly, Kona Bay Technologies Inc.) consolidated its issued and outstanding common shares (each, a “Common Share”) on the basis of 5.8 pre-consolidation Common Shares for each one post-consolidation Common Share and changed its name from “Kona Bay Technologies Inc.” to “Yerbaé Brands Corp.”. In accounting for the Transaction, the Company determined that Kona Bay was a shell company (as that term has been defined in Rule 405 of the United States Securities Act of 1933) as prior to the merger they had no operations and assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents. Thus, pursuant to section 12100 of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) financial reporting manual, the Company concluded that: (1) the Transaction should be accounted for as “a reverse takeover equivalent to the issuance of Common Shares by the Company for the net monetary assets of Kona Bay”; and (2) the Company should be considered the accounting acquirer/legal acquiree in the Transaction. As the Company concluded that Yerbaé USA was the accounting acquirer/legal acquiree in the transaction, the historical results of the combined company (prior the merger) represent the historical results of Yerbaé USA.

 

The recognition and measurement for the acquisition of Kona Bay, was analogized to the guidance in ASC 805-40 Reverse Acquisitions which requires that the accounting acquirer measure the fair value of the consideration transferred based on the number of common shares the legal target would have had to issue in order to retain a specified ownership in the combined Company (the “deemed issuance”). Yerbaé intended to retain and 85% ownership interest in the combined company, and therefore, based on 30.2 million shares outstanding immediately prior to the merger, would have had to issue approximately 5.3 million shares to the owners of the legal parent (to retain an 85% ownership). In addition, based on an equity financing by the Company which occurred immediately before the transaction, the Company determined that the common shares had a fair value of $1.23 per share. This resulted in the determination of the fair value of the consideration transferred in the transaction was approximately $6.5 million (5.2 million shares x $1.23 per Common Share) and that of the $6.5 million transferred approximately $0.6 million should be allocated to the cash acquired from Kona Bay (i.e., the “net assets” acquired) and the remaining $5.9 million should be recognized as a charge to equity as follows:

 

   Allocation Table 
   ($ in millions) 
Fair value of consideration paid  $6.5 
Net assets acquired (cash)   (0.6)
Charge to additional paid in capital  $5.9 

 

11
 

 

In addition, the Company presented the acquisition of Kona Bay as a “recapitalization” line item in our statement of changes in shareholders equity reflecting: (1) the number of Kona Bay’s outstanding common shares immediately prior to the transaction; and (2) the approximately $6.5 million in fair value of consideration transferred (calculated pursuant to the paragraph above). Further, while the guidance in ASC 805-40 also requires a revision to historical equity (of the combined company) to reflect the legal capital of the legal acquirer, the Company concluded that this was not required in our scenario as the conversion ratio, which reflects the number of common shares issued by the legal acquirer to effectuate the transaction compared to the number of common shares in the capital of Yerbaé outstanding immediately prior to the transaction, was 1:1.

Loans Issued Prior to 2024

 

Convertible Notes

 

On April 13, 2023, Yerbaé closed the first tranche (the “First Tranche”) of its brokered debenture unit (each, a “Debenture Unit”) offering which consisted of 1,650 Debenture Units for gross proceeds of $1,650,000. On May 5, 2023, Yerbaé closed the second tranche (the “Second Tranche”) pursuant to which it issued an additional 2,152 Debenture Units for gross proceeds of $2,152,000, and for aggregate gross proceeds, together with the closing of the First Tranche, of $3,802,000.

 

14
 

 

Each Debenture Unit consisted of: (i) one (1) convertible debenture (each, a “Debenture”) in the principal amount of $1,000; and (ii) 714 share purchase warrants. The Debentures mature on April 30, 2025 (the “Maturity Date”), and bear interest at a rate of 6.0% per annum, payable on the earlier of the Maturity Date or the date of conversion of the Debentures. The interest will be payable in Common Shares to be determined at the Market Price (as that term is defined in the Policies of the TSXV). The principal amount of the Debentures will be convertible at the holder’s option into Common Shares at any time prior to the close of business on the earlier of: (i) the last business day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, and (ii) the date fixed for redemption in the case of a change of control, at a conversion price of $1.40 per Common Share, subject to adjustment in certain customary events. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at a price per Common Share of $1.70 at any time prior to the Maturity Date, subject to an acceleration right whereby, if, in the event the Common Shares have a daily volume weighted average trading price on the TSXV (or such other recognized North American securities exchange) of $3.00 or greater per Common Share for any ten (10) consecutive trading day period at any time after the date that is four (4) months following the issuance of the warrants, Yerbaé may accelerate the expiry of the warrants by giving notice to the holders by disseminating a news release advising of the acceleration) and, in such case, the warrants will be deemed to have expired on the day which is thirty (30) days after the date of such notice.

 

In accounting for the Debentures, the Company concluded the conversion option should not be bi-furcated from the debt host as it was considered indexed to the company’s stock in accordance with ASC 815-40. Further, the Company also concluded that the detachable warrants should be classified in equity as they: (1) were not within the scope of ASC 480-10; and (2) should be considered indexed to the Company’s Common Shares. In accordance with ASC 470-20, the Company recognized both the Debentures and detachable warrants at their relative fair values. This resulted in the recognition of a debt discount that is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the Debenture Units. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded accretion expense of $190,270 and $538,634, respectively. The remaining unamortized debt discount balance as of September 30, 2024 was $542,063. Further, the remaining balance of the convertible debentures as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $2,734,936 and $2,196,302, respectively.

In consideration for the services to be provided by FORCE, the Company agreed to pay FORCE an aggregate consulting fee of $150,000 payable in Common Shares as to $25,000 in Common Shares on the date that is one month from the date of execution of the FORCE agreement at a deemed price per Common Share equal to the prevailing market price of the Common Shares on the date of such payment and $125,000 in Common Shares on the date of expiration of the six month term at a deemed price per Common Share equal to the prevailing market price of the Common Shares on the date of such payment.

Each PSU represents the right to receive, once vested, in accordance with the correspondence PSU award agreements and achievement of the performance criteria, one Common Share.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2023, $525,000 in principal amount of Debentures and $14,606 in accrued interest was converted into an aggregate of 375,000 Common Shares.

At December 31, 2023, there were 58,822,126 common shares issued and outstanding.

 

On January 16, 2024, the Company issued, in connection with the exercise by one eligible warrant holder (the “Eligible Holder”) who participated in the Company’s warrant exercise incentive program an aggregate of 835,000 Warrants for aggregate proceeds to the Company of $1,002,000, and an aggregate of 835,000 warrants (each, an “Incentive Warrant”) to the Eligible Holder. The Incentive Warrants are exercisable into the same number of common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $1.50 per common share until December 14, 2025, subject to an acceleration provision whereby, if for any thirty (30) consecutive trading days (the “Premium Trading Days”) following the repricing the closing price of the common shares exceeds $2.50 per common share, the Incentive Warrants’ expiry date will be accelerated such that holders will have thirty (30) calendar days to exercise the Incentive Warrants (if they have not first expired in the normal course) (the “Acceleration Clause”).

NOTE 10 – LOSS PER SHARE

 

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of Common Shares issued during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023. The following table reflects the loss and share data used in the basic loss per share calculations:

 

   2024   2023   2024   2023

Overview

 

Yerbaé was founded by Todd Gibson and Karrie Gibson in 2016 to create plant-based energy drinks containing yerba mate, a South American herb and a natural source of caffeine. Yerbaé’s first beverage was launched in the first quarter of 2017.

 

Yerbaé is engaged in the development, marketing, sale, and distribution of plant-based energy beverages that do not contain calories, carbohydrates, or sugar. Yerbaé’s line of beverages are blended with non-GMO plant-based ingredients and offer the benefits of yerba mate and white tea; sustainably sourced from Brazil and other growing regions in South America.

 

Yerbaé beverages are created to provide products targeted at consumers focused on health, wellness, and fitness and seeking healthier beverages as an alternative to existing energy drinks. The products are formulated to provide a more refreshing taste than coffee, with additional benefits to existing sodas and sparkling waters, along with healthier ingredients than traditional energy drinks. Yerbaé’s products complement a variety of healthy lifestyles, such as non-GMO, Keto, Vegan, Kosher, Paleo and gluten-free diets.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern and that contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $41.5 million and $34.5 million as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. Further, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $0.3 million and $1.0 million as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company’s primary focus in recent months has been and will continue to be supporting the manufacturing of its products which requires capital and resources. The Company expects that its operating losses and negative cash flows will continue for the foreseeable future. Based on the Company’s currently available cash resources, current and forecasted level of operations, and forecasted cash flows for the 12-month period subsequent to the date of issuance of these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the Company will require additional funding to continue to progress its operational obligations as they come due. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due, and to generate profitable operations in the future. Management plans to provide for the Company’s capital requirements through financing, operations, or other transactions, including third party loans.

 

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company had a working capital deficit of $5,095,669 and surplus of $843,478, respectively. The Company has incurred losses since inception and as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, had an accumulated deficit of approximately $41.5 million and $34.5 million, respectively. The Company’s objective in managing its capital is to ensure that there is sufficient liquidity to finance and grow its operations, maximize the preservation of capital, provide adequate capital to fund its business objectives, and deliver competitive returns on invested capital. To fund its activities, the Company has primarily relied on private placement financing, warrant exercises, loans and other forms of debt. The material debt financing and loan transactions were as follows:

 

Notes Payable

 

Convertible Notes

 

During 2023, convertible notes payable were issued in the amount of $3,802,000 with a stated interest rate of 6.00%. The convertible notes were unsecured and are due on April 30, 2025. The balance, net of debt discount, of the convertible notes as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, was $2,734,936 and $2,196,302, respectively.

 

Motor Vehicle Loan

 

During 2023, the Company entered into various notes payable related to vehicles with monthly installments ranging from $543 to $652, including interest ranging from 2.90% to 5.49%, due October 2026. The notes are secured by vehicles and had a balance of $30,968 and $60,914 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. There were no changes to the terms of these loans. All changes were a result of repayment.

 

Amazon Lending

 

During 2023, the Company entered into a financing arrangement with Amazon Lending, maturing December 26, 2024 at an interest rate of 14.49%, secured by inventories. There were no changes to the terms of these loans. All changes were a result of repayment.

 

Ampla and Oxford Financing

 

On May 16, 2023, Yerbaé replaced their finance provider Ampla LLC (“Ampla”) and secured a new accounts receivable and inventory of $2,500,000 with Oxford Commercial Finance, a Michigan banking corporation, through its Delaware subsidiary Yerbaé LLC. The Company can draw down funds as needed, and only pay interest on the amount borrowed.

The facility was repaid during 2023.

The Incentive Warrants are exercisable into the same number of common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $1.50 per common share until December 14, 2025, subject to an acceleration provision whereby, if for any thirty (30) consecutive trading days (the “Premium Trading Days”) following the repricing the closing price of the common shares exceeds $2.50 per common share, the Incentive Warrants’ expiry date will be accelerated such that holders will have thirty (30) calendar days to exercise the Incentive Warrants (if they have not first expired in the normal course) (the “Acceleration Clause”).

 

On January 22, 2024, the Company issued 263,157 Common Shares upon the exercise of 263,157 share purchase warrants at an exercise price of $0.95 per Common Share for gross aggregate proceeds of $250,000.

 

On January 30, 2024, the Company issued 352,941 Common Shares upon the exercise of 352,941 share purchase warrants at an exercise price of $0.85 per Common Share for gross aggregate proceeds of $300,000.

Commitments

 

As discussed in our consolidated financial statements for the annual period ended December 31, 2023, the Company entered into an office lease agreement during December of 2022. The ongoing monthly payments are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition.

 

In addition to the lease agreement, the Company also enters into unconditional purchase obligations for inventory items such as cans and product ingredients. However, these obligations are not entered into for a period greater than one year. The Company has not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Going Concern

 

Yerbaé’s evaluation of its ability to continue as a going concern requires it to evaluate its future sources and uses of cash sufficient to fund its currently expected operations in conducting business activities one year from the date the financial statements are issued. Yerbaé evaluates the probability associated with each source and use of cash resources in making its going concern determination.

 

Due to our recurring losses, the ongoing challenging market conditions for beverage companies and our limited cash balance as of September 30, 2024, management believes that it is probable that the Company will be unable to meet its obligations as they come due within one year after the date that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. While the Company is attempting to plan additional financings, which are intended to mitigate the conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, those financings may not occur. If the financings do not occur, management will try and implement alternative arrangements, and such arrangements could have a potentially significant negative impact on the current net asset value of the Company. These alternatives include: (1) raising additional capital by means other than those planned through equity and/or debt financings; and/or (2) entering into new commercial relationships to help fund future expenses.

 

As a result of the Company’s recurring losses from operations, and the need for additional financing to fund its operating and capital requirements within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued, there is uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to maintain liquidity sufficient to operate its business effectively, which raises substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to three months ended September 30, 2023

 

The following tables set forth the Company’s results of operations for the periods presented. The comparison of financial results is not necessarily indicative of future results.

 

   For the Three Months Ended September 30, 
   2024   2023 
Revenues  $1,631,615   $2,986,734 
Cost of sales   599,845    1,417,603

Revenues

 

   For the Three Months Ended September 30,   Change 
   2024   2023   $   % 
Revenues  $1,631,615   $2,986,734   $(1,355,119)   -45%

 

Yerbaé’s revenues declined by $1.4 million, or 45%, for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period in the prior year. This decline was primarily attributed to the non-renewal of its agreement with Sam’s Club, the nation’s second-largest club retailer, as well as the challenging consumer packaged goods (CPG) U.S. market today, which has been impacted by inflation and may be contributing to a reduction in consumer basket size. Despite this decrease, Yerbaé continued to advance its distribution footprint, executing with major retailers such as Kroger, Amazon, and Costco, along with multiple other retail chains. In the third quarter of 2024, the Company prioritized efforts to stabilize its business foundation, focusing on core strengths. Key growth was seen in the Natural Foods, Direct-to-Consumer, and Direct Store Delivery (“DSD”) channels, bolstered by the successful rollout of the new 12oz can platform launched in Q1 2024. Club store placements continued to perform well in select regions; however, a reduction in the number of stocked club stores as noted above led to a decline in quarterly sales.

 

Cost of Sales

 

   For the Three Months Ended September 30,   Change 
   2024   2023   $   % 
Cost of sales  $599,845   $1,417,603    (817,758)   -58%

 

Cost of sales is primarily comprised of product materials, ingredient costs, bottling, inbound freight, and other related expenses. Costs of sales decreased by $0.8 million, or 58%, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in cost of goods sold was directly related to the decrease in sales during 2024.

 

General and Administrative

 

   For the Three Months Ended September 30,   Change 
   2024   2023   $   % 
General and administrative  $1,792,423   $3,589,314    (1,796,891)   -50%

 

General and administrative expense included operational and administrative costs as detailed in the following table:

 

   For the Three Months Ended September 30, 
   2024   2023 
Share-based compensation  $198,784   $733,686 
Outbound freight   442,380    575,560 
Employee benefits   471,508    756,147

Other   36,193    238,782 
Total general and administrative expenses  $1,792,423   $3,589,314 

 

General and administrative expenses decreased to $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $3.6 million for the prior comparable period. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in share-based compensation of $0.5, professional fees of $0.6 million, employee benefits of $0.3 million, a decrease of outbound freight of $0.1 million and other expense of $0.2 million.

 

Sales, Advertising and Marketing

 

   For the Three Months Ended September 30,   Change 
   2024   2023   $   % 
Sales, advertising and marketing  $311,915   $1,886,414    (1,574,499)   -83%

 

Sales, advertising and marketing decreased to $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $1.9 million for the prior year period. Throughout 2024, the Company has prioritized delivering efficiencies across its sales, advertising, and marketing platforms. This effort included a strategic focus on optimizing product availability in both retail and eCommerce channels. As the Company continues its expansion, maximizing the effectiveness of every dollar spent has been a top priority.

Revenues

 

   For the Nine Months Ended September 30,   Change 
   2024   2023   $   % 
Revenues  $4,628,830   $9,991,758   $(5,362,928)   -54%

 

Yerbaé’s revenues declined by $5.4 million, or 54%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period in the prior year. Throughout this period, the Company prioritized optimizing its customer base by phasing out less profitable accounts, including previously announced exits from Sam’s Club and other high-slotting, low-volume retailers, which resulted in lower revenues for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 compared to the prior period. Yerbaé has instead focused on growth-oriented retail partnerships that enhance gross margins and deliver greater shareholder value. Significant progress was made in core focus channels, establishing a strong foundation for future growth. The Company also expanded its Direct-to-Consumer segment, introducing new variety packs and increasing brand awareness through a broader network of social media influencers and digital advertising. Additionally, Yerbaé strengthened its distributor relationships, onboarding 14 new distributors in the third quarter of 2024 to support its growth initiates for 2025 and beyond. Nine-month 2024 revenues were also impacted by the challenging CPG U.S. market, which has been impacted by higher inflation earlier in the period and as the Company transitioned from 16oz to 12 oz packaging, aligning with consumer demand for a more efficient product size, however this also resulted in decreased sales as the Company transitioned to the new can format. This transition was completed in Q2 2024.

 

Cost of Sales

 

   For the Nine Months Ended September 30,   Change 
   2024   2023   $   % 
Cost of sales  $2,122,316   $4,968,058    (2,845,742)   -57%

 

Cost of sales is primarily comprised of product materials, ingredient costs, bottling, inbound freight, and other related expenses. Costs of sales decreased by $2.8 million, or 57%, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in cost of goods sold was directly related to the decrease in sales during 2024.

 

General and Administrative

 

   For the Nine Months Ended September 30,   Change 
   2024   2023   $   % 
General and administrative  $7,469,589   $15,735,214    (8,265,625)   -53%

 

General and administrative expense included operational and administrative costs as detailed in the following table:

 

   For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 
   2024   2023 
Share-based compensation  $1,734,941   $1,694,970 
Outbound freight   1,333,707    1,956,911 
Employee benefits   1,788,796    2,272,388 
Professional fees   1,314,551    2,197,653 
Office expenses   838,652    889,376 
Performance shares granted upon consummation of RTO   -    6,086,596 
Other   458,942    637,320 
Total general and administrative expenses  $7,469,589   $15,735,214 

 

General and administrative expenses decreased to $7.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in expense related to performance shares granted upon consummation of the reverse takeover during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, of $6.1 million, a decrease of professional fees of $0.9 million, a decrease of outbound freight of $0.6 million, a decrease of employee benefits of $0.5 million and a decrease of other expenses $0.2 million.

 

Sales, Advertising and Marketing

 

   For the Nine Months Ended September 30,   Change 
   2024   2023   $   % 
Sales, advertising and marketing   1,136,839   $5,542,848    (4,406,009)   -79%

 

Sales, advertising and marketing decreased to $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $5.5 million for the prior year period. Over the past nine months, the Company has focused on evaluating and optimizing retailer performance, promotions, and growth levels. By concentrating on select channels, the Company has demonstrated its ability to operate more efficiently. This has involved reducing the number of promotions during the period and eliminating programs that did not meet expectations, such as paid pallet positions, slotting fees, and other sales initiatives. Additionally, the Company has prioritized more efficient and effective digital targeting in its eCommerce channels, which continues to deliver positive results.

 

Interest Expense

 

   For the Nine Months Ended September 30,   Change 
   2024   2023   $   % 
Total interest expense   932,637    418,748    513,889    123%

 

Interest expense includes interest expense and accretion expense related to the principal amount of $3,802,000 convertible debentures issued in 2023 and new debt issuances in 2024. Interest expense increased to $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $0.4 million during the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily related to an increase in accretion expense of $0.3 million and an increase in interest expense related to new debt instruments that were entered into during 2024.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

 

The Company’s management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Report.

 

Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Yerbaé’s principal subsidiaries are Yerbaé Brands Co. (“Yerbaé USA”) and Yerbaé LLC of which Yerbaé owns 100% interests in. Yerbaé is a beverage manufacturer focusing on the development and distribution of plant-based energy drinks and seltzers.

 

On May 19, 2022, Yerbaé (formerly Kona Bay Technologies Inc. (“Kona Bay”)) entered into a definitive arrangement agreement and plan of merger, as amended on August 31, 2022 and February 8, 2023, with Yerbaé USA, Kona Bay Technologies (Delaware) Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary of the Company, 1362283 B.C. Ltd. (“FinCo”), a wholly-owned British Columbia subsidiary of Kona Bay, Todd Gibson and Karrie Gibson, pursuant to which Kona Bay proposed to complete a business combination with Yerbaé USA via the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding securities of Yerbaé USA from the securityholders (collectively, the “Original Yerbaé Securityholders”) of Yerbaé USA (the “Transaction”). The Transaction was subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) and constituted a reverse takeover of Kona Bay by Yerbaé USA as defined in TSXV Policy 5.2 – Change of Business and Reverse Takeovers.

 

On February 8, 2023, Yerbaé completed the Transaction with Yerbaé USA by way of a reverse merger conducted pursuant to: (i) the provisions of the Delaware General Corporations Law (“DGCL”) in which Merger Sub merged with and into Yerbaé USA, and (ii) a plan of arrangement conducted pursuant to the provisions of the BCBCA, which resulted in the amalgamation of Kona Bay with FinCo. In connection with the closing of the Transaction, Yerbaé (formerly, Kona Bay Technologies Inc.) consolidated its issued and outstanding common shares (each, a “Common Share”) on the basis of 5.8 pre-consolidation Common Shares for every one post-consolidation Common Share and changed its name from “Kona Bay Technologies Inc.” to “Yerbaé Brands Corp.”

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and include Yerbaé and its subsidiaries and include the accounts of all majority owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control and, when applicable, entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company had the following wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries as of September 30, 2024:

  

Subsidiary   Date of Incorporation   Jurisdiction of Incorporation   Ownership Percentage   Direct or Indirect Ownership
Yerbaé Brands Co.   August 21, 2020   Delaware   100%   Direct
Yerbaé LLC(1)   May 18, 2016   Delaware   100%   Indirect

 

(1)Yerbaé LLC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Yerbaé Brands Co.

 

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the company’s latest consolidated annual financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2023 that was filed in our Form 10 filed with the SEC on July 19, 2024. In general, disclosure provided in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not repeat the disclosure provided in the Company’s most recent audited consolidated annual financial statements. However, these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim period presented.

 

 

Going Concern

 

Yerbaé’s evaluation of its ability to continue as a going concern requires it to evaluate its future sources and uses of cash sufficient to fund its currently expected operations in conducting business activities one year from the date its unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are issued. Yerbaé evaluates the probability associated with each source and use of cash resources in making its going concern determination.

 

Due to our recurring losses, the ongoing challenging market conditions for beverage companies and our limited cash balance as of September 30, 2024, management believes that it is probable that the Company will be unable to meet its obligations as they come due within one year after the date that the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are issued. While the Company is attempting to plan additional financings, including equity and debt, which are intended to mitigate the conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, those financings may not occur. If the financings do not occur, management will try and implement alternative arrangements, and such arrangements could have a potentially significant negative impact on the current net asset value of the Company. These alternatives include: (1) raising additional capital by means other than those planned through equity and/or debt financing; and/or (2) entering into new commercial relationships to help fund future expenses.

 

As a result of the Company’s recurring losses from operations, and the need for additional financing to fund its operating and capital requirements within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued, there is uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to maintain liquidity sufficient to operate its business effectively, which raises substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Management Estimates

 

The preparation of the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, including the potential future effects of macroeconomic trends and events, such as inflation and interest rate levels; supply chain disruptions; uncertainty from potential recessionary effects; climate-related matters; market, industry and regulatory factors, including permitting issues; global events, such as the ongoing military conflicts in Ukraine and the middle east; and public health matters. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the Company’s operating results and the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. While management believes that such estimates are reasonable when considered in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial position and results of operations taken as a whole, actual results could differ from these estimates.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

General Note

 

In accordance with Rule 10-01(a)(5) of Regulation S-X, the Company has not provided summary of significant accounting policy disclosure which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in our most recent annual report included in our Form 10 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 19, 2024.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined on a first-in/first-out basis. The cost of inventory includes material and manufacturing costs. Inventoriable costs are expensed to cost of goods sold on the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statement of operations in the same period as finished products are sold. The amount of any write-down of inventory to net realizable value and all losses of inventory are recognized as an expense in the period when the write-down or loss. No write downs were recognized during the three and nine month interim reporting periods ended September 30, 2024 or September 30, 2023. Further, we establish a reserve related to shrinkage. The reserve is adjusted at the end of each reporting period as needed.

 

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

Management regularly reviews property and equipment and other long-lived assets for possible impairment. This review occurs annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If there is an indication of impairment, management then prepares an estimate of future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value. The fair value is estimated using the present value of the future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with management’s estimates of the business risks. Preparation of estimated expected future cash flows is inherently subjective and is based on management’s best estimate of assumptions concerning expected future conditions. No impairments were recognized during the three and nine month interim periods ended September 30, 2024 or September 30, 2023.

 

Fair Value Measurement

 

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

 

Level 1: Observable inputs based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions. While the Company does not have any financial instruments that are measured to fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis, it does have financial instruments, such as cash, notes payable, and the line of credit as of both September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023.

 

The Company’s financial instruments as of September 30, 2024 included cash, accounts receivables, accounts payable, related party notes payable and notes payable. The stated amounts of cash, accounts receivables and accounts payable represent fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. Further, the stated amount of the related party notes payable and notes payable, which are classified as level 3 instruments, also represent fair value due the notes being issued at currently prevailing market rates.

 

Notes Payable

 

The Company recognizes its note payables in accordance with the guidance in ASC 470 Debt. When there is no stated interest rate on the note payable, or the note payable includes an original issue discount, the Company determines the interest rate utilizing the interest method outlined in ASC 835 Interest. In accordance with the ASC topic, original issue discounts are recognized as a debt discount and amortized to interest expense over the estimated life of the loan. Finally, note payables are classified as either current or non-current in accordance with the guidance in ASC 210 Balance Sheet and ASC 470 Debt.

 

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures-In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires a public entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. Additionally, it requires a public entity to disclose the title and position of the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. A public entity should apply the amendments in this ASU retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Yerbaé expects this ASU to only impact its disclosures with no impact to the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

 

Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures-In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which focuses on the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU No. 2023-09 requires a public business entity (“PBE”) to disclose, on an annual basis, a tabular rate reconciliation using both percentages and currency amounts, broken out into specified categories with certain reconciling items further broken out by nature and jurisdiction to the extent those items exceed a specified threshold. In addition, all entities are required to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds received disaggregated by federal, state/local, and foreign and by jurisdiction if the amount is at least 5% of total income tax payments, net of refunds received. For PBEs, the new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. An entity may apply the amendments in this ASU prospectively by providing the revised disclosures for the period ending December 31, 2025, and continuing to provide the pre-ASU disclosures for the prior periods or may apply the amendments retrospectively by providing the revised disclosures for all period presented. Yerbaé expects this ASU to only impact its disclosures with no impact to the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.

REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

NOTE 3 - REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

 

The Company is in the business of manufacturing plant-based beverages and derives its revenues from one primary source-product sales. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control of the goods are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods.

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the five-step model outlined in ASC 606-Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Specifically, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of Yerbaé product to our customers by applying the following steps:

 

  1. Identify the contract(s) with a customer
  2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract
  3. Determine the transaction price
  4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
  5. Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation

 

The Company’s contracts with customers contain a single performance obligation consisting of providing Yerbaé energy drinks. As it pertains to the single performance obligation, the Company does not recognize any contract assets or contract liabilities as it does not: (1) have a right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that the entity has transferred to a customer when the right is conditioned on something other than the passage or (2) receive payment prior to performing.

 

The Company typically satisfies its performance obligations at a point time upon the occurrence of delivery of the product to the customer. Further, payment is typically received within 60 days after product delivery and does not include a significant financing component.

 

 

The Company’s contracts with customers include variable consideration including customer rebates and quick pay discounts. The Company estimates variable consideration, which it does not consider to be constrained, using either the most likely amount or expected value methods depending on the type of variable consideration.

 

The Company only provides refunds for products that are damaged during delivery to the customer. However, instances of refunds are rare and have not historically had a material impact on the Company’s results of operations. Finally, Yerbaé has made an accounting policy election to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the entity from a customer.

 

In addition to variable consideration, the Company also provides payments to certain customers for slotting fees. In accordance with the guidance in ASC 606-10-32, the Company determined that the payment is not in exchange for a distinct good or service and it is therefore recognized as a reduction to the transaction price. As the slotting fee payment covers the life of the contract with a customer, the initial payment is recognized as an asset and is amortized as a reduction to revenue on a rational and reasonable basis over the estimated life of the contract.

 

Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer

 

The Company does not recognize any assets related to either costs to obtain or fulfil a contract with a customer. We incur certain delivery costs prior to transferring control of Yerbaé product to our customers (i.e. outbound freight). In accordance with the guidance in ASC 606-10-25, those costs are recognized as a fulfilment cost as they are provided prior to transferring control of the Yerbaé product to our customer (i.e. akin to shipping and handling). Further, the costs are classified in general and administrative within the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statement of operations.

REVERSE RECAPITALIZATION

REVERSE RECAPITALIZATION

NOTE 4 - REVERSE RECAPITALIZATION

 

On February 8, 2023, Yerbaé completed the Transaction with Yerbaé USA by way of a reverse merger conducted pursuant to: (i) the provisions of the Delaware General Corporations Law (“DGCL”) in which Merger Sub merged with and into Yerbaé USA, and (ii) a plan of arrangement conducted pursuant to the provisions of the BCBCA, which resulted in the amalgamation of Kona Bay with FinCo. In connection with the Closing, Yerbaé (formerly, Kona Bay Technologies Inc.) consolidated its issued and outstanding common shares (each, a “Common Share”) on the basis of 5.8 pre-consolidation Common Shares for each one post-consolidation Common Share and changed its name from “Kona Bay Technologies Inc.” to “Yerbaé Brands Corp.”. In accounting for the Transaction, the Company determined that Kona Bay was a shell company (as that term has been defined in Rule 405 of the United States Securities Act of 1933) as prior to the merger they had no operations and assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents. Thus, pursuant to section 12100 of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) financial reporting manual, the Company concluded that: (1) the Transaction should be accounted for as “a reverse takeover equivalent to the issuance of Common Shares by the Company for the net monetary assets of Kona Bay”; and (2) the Company should be considered the accounting acquirer/legal acquiree in the Transaction. As the Company concluded that Yerbaé USA was the accounting acquirer/legal acquiree in the transaction, the historical results of the combined company (prior the merger) represent the historical results of Yerbaé USA.

 

The recognition and measurement for the acquisition of Kona Bay, was analogized to the guidance in ASC 805-40 Reverse Acquisitions which requires that the accounting acquirer measure the fair value of the consideration transferred based on the number of common shares the legal target would have had to issue in order to retain a specified ownership in the combined Company (the “deemed issuance”). Yerbaé intended to retain and 85% ownership interest in the combined company, and therefore, based on 30.2 million shares outstanding immediately prior to the merger, would have had to issue approximately 5.3 million shares to the owners of the legal parent (to retain an 85% ownership). In addition, based on an equity financing by the Company which occurred immediately before the transaction, the Company determined that the common shares had a fair value of $1.23 per share. This resulted in the determination of the fair value of the consideration transferred in the transaction was approximately $6.5 million (5.2 million shares x $1.23 per Common Share) and that of the $6.5 million transferred approximately $0.6 million should be allocated to the cash acquired from Kona Bay (i.e., the “net assets” acquired) and the remaining $5.9 million should be recognized as a charge to equity as follows:

 

   Allocation Table 
   ($ in millions) 
Fair value of consideration paid  $6.5 
Net assets acquired (cash)   (0.6)
Charge to additional paid in capital  $5.9 

 

 

In addition, the Company presented the acquisition of Kona Bay as a “recapitalization” line item in our statement of changes in shareholders equity reflecting: (1) the number of Kona Bay’s outstanding common shares immediately prior to the transaction; and (2) the approximately $6.5 million in fair value of consideration transferred (calculated pursuant to the paragraph above). Further, while the guidance in ASC 805-40 also requires a revision to historical equity (of the combined company) to reflect the legal capital of the legal acquirer, the Company concluded that this was not required in our scenario as the conversion ratio, which reflects the number of common shares issued by the legal acquirer to effectuate the transaction compared to the number of common shares in the capital of Yerbaé outstanding immediately prior to the transaction, was 1:1.

Loans Issued Prior to 2024

 

Convertible Notes

 

On April 13, 2023, Yerbaé closed the first tranche (the “First Tranche”) of its brokered debenture unit (each, a “Debenture Unit”) offering which consisted of 1,650 Debenture Units for gross proceeds of $1,650,000. On May 5, 2023, Yerbaé closed the second tranche (the “Second Tranche”) pursuant to which it issued an additional 2,152 Debenture Units for gross proceeds of $2,152,000, and for aggregate gross proceeds, together with the closing of the First Tranche, of $3,802,000.

 

 

Each Debenture Unit consisted of: (i) one (1) convertible debenture (each, a “Debenture”) in the principal amount of $1,000; and (ii) 714 share purchase warrants. The Debentures mature on April 30, 2025 (the “Maturity Date”), and bear interest at a rate of 6.0% per annum, payable on the earlier of the Maturity Date or the date of conversion of the Debentures. The interest will be payable in Common Shares to be determined at the Market Price (as that term is defined in the Policies of the TSXV). The principal amount of the Debentures will be convertible at the holder’s option into Common Shares at any time prior to the close of business on the earlier of: (i) the last business day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, and (ii) the date fixed for redemption in the case of a change of control, at a conversion price of $1.40 per Common Share, subject to adjustment in certain customary events. Each warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at a price per Common Share of $1.70 at any time prior to the Maturity Date, subject to an acceleration right whereby, if, in the event the Common Shares have a daily volume weighted average trading price on the TSXV (or such other recognized North American securities exchange) of $3.00 or greater per Common Share for any ten (10) consecutive trading day period at any time after the date that is four (4) months following the issuance of the warrants, Yerbaé may accelerate the expiry of the warrants by giving notice to the holders by disseminating a news release advising of the acceleration) and, in such case, the warrants will be deemed to have expired on the day which is thirty (30) days after the date of such notice.

 

In accounting for the Debentures, the Company concluded the conversion option should not be bi-furcated from the debt host as it was considered indexed to the company’s stock in accordance with ASC 815-40. Further, the Company also concluded that the detachable warrants should be classified in equity as they: (1) were not within the scope of ASC 480-10; and (2) should be considered indexed to the Company’s Common Shares. In accordance with ASC 470-20, the Company recognized both the Debentures and detachable warrants at their relative fair values. This resulted in the recognition of a debt discount that is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the Debenture Units. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded accretion expense of $190,270 and $538,634, respectively. The remaining unamortized debt discount balance as of September 30, 2024 was $542,063. Further, the remaining balance of the convertible debentures as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $2,734,936 and $2,196,302, respectively.

 

Motor Vehicle Loan

 

During 2023, the Company entered into various notes payable related to vehicles with monthly instalments ranging from $543 to $652, including interest ranging from 2.90% to 5.49%, due October 2026. The notes are secured by vehicles. There were no changes to the terms of these loans. All changes were a result of repayment.

 

Amazon Lending

 

During 2023, the Company entered into a financing arrangement with Amazon Lending, maturing December 26, 2024 at an interest rate of 14.49%, secured by inventories. There were no changes to the terms of these loans. All changes were a result of repayment.

 

Ampla and Oxford Financing

 

On May 16, 2023, Yerbaé replaced their finance provider Ampla LLC (“Ampla”) and secured a new accounts receivable and inventory of $2,500,000 with Oxford Commercial Finance, a Michigan banking corporation, through its Delaware subsidiary Yerbaé LLC. The Company can draw down funds as needed, and only pay interest on the amount borrowed. The debt facility was secured by a security interest in all assets of Yerbaé, including a first security interest in Yerbaé’s accounts receivable and inventory. The facility was repaid during 2023.

 

Loans Issued During the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024

 

Unrelated Third-Party Loans

 

On September 16, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with a private lender whereby the lender agreed to loan an aggregate of up to $540,000. The loan matures on August 16, 2025. The balance of the loan was $500,000 net of discounts and repayments as of September 30, 2024 and had an effective interest rate of approximately 8.0%.

 

On August 26, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with a lender whereby the lender agreed to loan an aggregate of up to $60,000 The loan matures on February 26, 2025. The balance of the loan was $51,667 net of discount and repayments as of September 30, 2024 and had an effective interest rate of approximately 8.3%.

Under the terms of the FORCE agreement, FORCE will provide certain business development and corporate strategies services to enhance the Company’s growth and market positioning. In consideration for the services to be provided by FORCE, the Company agreed to pay FORCE an aggregate consulting fee of $150,000 payable in Common Shares as to $25,000 in Common Shares on the date that is one month from the date of execution of the FORCE agreement at a deemed price per Common Share equal to the prevailing market price of the Common Shares on the date of such payment and $125,000 in Common Shares on the date of expiration of the six month term at a deemed price per Common Share equal to the prevailing market price of the Common Shares on the date of such payment.

Each RSU representing the right to receive, once vested twelve (12) months from the date of grant, in accordance with corresponding the RSU award agreements, one Common Share. Each PSU represents the right to receive, once vested, in accordance with the correspondence PSU award agreements and achievement of the performance criteria, one Common Share.

The Incentive Warrants are exercisable into the same number of common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $1.50 per common share until December 14, 2025, subject to an acceleration provision whereby, if for any thirty (30) consecutive trading days (the “Premium Trading Days”) following the repricing the closing price of the common shares exceeds $2.50 per common share, the Incentive Warrants’ expiry date will be accelerated such that holders will have thirty (30) calendar days to exercise the Incentive Warrants (if they have not first expired in the normal course) (the “Acceleration Clause”). In accordance with the guidance in ASC 815-40-35, the Company determined that the exchange was related to an equity financing (i.e. the inducement of the existing warrants) and therefore recognized the $133,600 excess in fair value of the exchanged instrument over the fair value of the instrument immediately before it was exchanged as an equity issuance cost.

General Note

General Note

 

In accordance with Rule 10-01(a)(5) of Regulation S-X, the Company has not provided summary of significant accounting policy disclosure which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in our most recent annual report included in our Form 10 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 19, 2024.

 

Inventory

Inventory

 

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined on a first-in/first-out basis. The cost of inventory includes material and manufacturing costs. Inventoriable costs are expensed to cost of goods sold on the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statement of operations in the same period as finished products are sold. The amount of any write-down of inventory to net realizable value and all losses of inventory are recognized as an expense in the period when the write-down or loss. No write downs were recognized during the three and nine month interim reporting periods ended September 30, 2024 or September 30, 2023. Further, we establish a reserve related to shrinkage. The reserve is adjusted at the end of each reporting period as needed.

 

 

Long-Lived Assets

Long-Lived Assets

 

Management regularly reviews property and equipment and other long-lived assets for possible impairment. This review occurs annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If there is an indication of impairment, management then prepares an estimate of future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value. The fair value is estimated using the present value of the future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with management’s estimates of the business risks. Preparation of estimated expected future cash flows is inherently subjective and is based on management’s best estimate of assumptions concerning expected future conditions. No impairments were recognized during the three and nine month interim periods ended September 30, 2024 or September 30, 2023.

 

Fair Value Measurement

Fair Value Measurement

 

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

 

Level 1: Observable inputs based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions. While the Company does not have any financial instruments that are measured to fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis, it does have financial instruments, such as cash, notes payable, and the line of credit as of both September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023.

 

The Company’s financial instruments as of September 30, 2024 included cash, accounts receivables, accounts payable, related party notes payable and notes payable. The stated amounts of cash, accounts receivables and accounts payable represent fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. Further, the stated amount of the related party notes payable and notes payable, which are classified as level 3 instruments, also represent fair value due the notes being issued at currently prevailing market rates.

 

Notes Payable

Notes Payable

 

The Company recognizes its note payables in accordance with the guidance in ASC 470 Debt. When there is no stated interest rate on the note payable, or the note payable includes an original issue discount, the Company determines the interest rate utilizing the interest method outlined in ASC 835 Interest. In accordance with the ASC topic, original issue discounts are recognized as a debt discount and amortized to interest expense over the estimated life of the loan. Finally, note payables are classified as either current or non-current in accordance with the guidance in ASC 210 Balance Sheet and ASC 470 Debt.

 

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures-In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires a public entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. Additionally, it requires a public entity to disclose the title and position of the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them, or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. A public entity should apply the amendments in this ASU retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Yerbaé expects this ASU to only impact its disclosures with no impact to the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

 

Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures-In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which focuses on the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU No. 2023-09 requires a public business entity (“PBE”) to disclose, on an annual basis, a tabular rate reconciliation using both percentages and currency amounts, broken out into specified categories with certain reconciling items further broken out by nature and jurisdiction to the extent those items exceed a specified threshold. In addition, all entities are required to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds received disaggregated by federal, state/local, and foreign and by jurisdiction if the amount is at least 5% of total income tax payments, net of refunds received. For PBEs, the new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. An entity may apply the amendments in this ASU prospectively by providing the revised disclosures for the period ending December 31, 2025, and continuing to provide the pre-ASU disclosures for the prior periods or may apply the amendments retrospectively by providing the revised disclosures for all period presented. Yerbaé expects this ASU to only impact its disclosures with no impact to the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.
