 Item 1. Business.
 Our Company
 Mama's Creations, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the "Company") is a leading marketer and manufacturer of fresh deli-prepared foods, found in over 10,000 grocery, mass, club and convenience stores nationally. The Company's broad product portfolio, born from MamaMancini's rich history in Italian foods, now consists of a variety of high-quality, fresh, clean and easy-to-prepare foods to address the needs of both our consumers and retailers. Our vision is to become a one-stop-shop deli solutions platform, leveraging vertical integration and a diverse family of brands to offer a wide array of prepared foods to meet the changing demands of the modern consumer.
 MamaMancini's roots go back to our founder, Dan Dougherty, whose grandmother Anna "Mama" Mancini emigrated from Bari, Italy to Bay Ridge, Brooklyn in 1921. Our products were developed using her old-world Italian recipes that were handed down to her grandson, Dan Dougherty. Over time, we have expanded our core product lines through acquisitions and internal development and today our product line includes all-natural specialty prepared refrigerated foods for sale in retailers around the country. Our primary products include beef and turkey meatballs, meat loaf, chicken, sausage-related products and pasta and rice entrees.
 Our products include the MamaMancini's brand featuring many all-natural meals that contain a minimum number of ingredients, many of which are derived from the original recipes of Anna "Mama" Mancini. Our products appeal to health-conscious consumers who seek to avoid artificial flavors, synthetic colors and preservatives that are used in many conventional packaged foods.
 The United States Department of Agriculture (the "USDA") defines "all-natural" as a product that contains no artificial ingredients, coloring ingredients or chemical preservatives and is minimally processed. Many of MamaMancini's products were submitted to the USDA and approved as all-natural. The Food Safety and Inspection Service ("FSIS") Food Standards and Labeling Policy Book (2003) requires meat and poultry labels to include a brief statement directly beneath or beside the "natural" label claim that "explains what is meant by the term natural, i.e., that the product is a natural food because it contains no artificial ingredients and is only minimally processed." The term "natural" may be used on a meat label or poultry label if the product does not contain any artificial flavor or flavoring, coloring ingredient, chemical preservative, or any other artificial or synthetic ingredient. Additionally, the term "all-natural" can be used if the FSIS approves your product and label claims. The Company's all-natural product and label claims have been approved by the FSIS to contain the all-natural label.
 Our products are principally sold to supermarkets, club chains, mass-market retailers, and food distributors. We currently have more than 100 product offerings across our beef, chicken, salad and olive portfolios that are packaged in different sized retail and bulk packages. Our products are principally sold in the deli section of the supermarket, including hot bars, salad bars, prepared foods (meals), sandwich, as well as cold deli and foods-to-go sections.
 Olive Branch, LLC ("OB" or "Olive Branch") concentrates on selling olives, olive mixes, and savory products to a limited number of large retail customers, primarily in pre-packaged containers. Olive Branch products are manufactured at the same facility as T&L Creative Salads ("T&L" or "T&L Creative Salads") in Farmingdale, NY.

 Our History
 The Company was originally organized on July 22, 2009 as a Nevada corporation called Mascot Properties, Inc. ("Mascot").
 In February 2010, MamaMancini's LLC was formed as a limited liability company under the laws of the state of New Jersey in order to commercialize our initial products. In March 2012, the members of MamaMancini's LLC exchanged their equity for shares in MamaMancini's Inc., a Delaware Corporation ("MamaMancini's").
 In January 2013, MamaMancini's became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company via a merger transaction. Effective March 11, 2013, Mascot began trading under the name, "MamaMancini's Holdings, Inc." and the symbol "MMMB."
 The Company acquired Joseph Epstein Food Enterprises, Inc., a New Jersey corporation and manufacturer of food products ("JEFE"), pursuant to a merger transaction in November 2017.
 In December 2021, the Company acquired both T&L and Olive Branch, related gourmet food manufacturers based in New York, for a combined purchase price of $14 million, including $11 million in cash at closing and $3 million in a promissory note (the "Note"). The promissory note requires annual principal payments of $750,000 payable on each anniversary of the closing, together with accrued interest at a rate of three and one-half percent (3.5%) per annum. The Note holder is T&L Creative Salads Inc., and it is guaranteed by the Company. The cash payment was funded through cash on hand and a $7.5 million acquisition loan from M&T Bank. Anthony Morello, Jr. remained as President of T&L.
 On June 28, 2022, the Company acquired a 24% minority interest in Chef Inspirational Foods, LLC ("CIF"), a leading developer, innovator, marketer and sales company selling prepared foods, for an investment of $1.2 million. On June 28, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of the remaining 76% of CIF, for $3.7 million, including approximately $1.0 million in cash at closing and a $2.7 million promissory note.
 Reflecting the evolution of the Company from its origins as a home-style, old world Italian food company to a broader provider of products featuring all-natural specialty prepared refrigerated foods for sale in retailers around the country, on July 31, 2023, the Company adopted its current name "Mama's Creations, Inc.," and began trading under the ticker symbol "MAMA" on August 2, 2023.
 Industry Overview
 Our products are considered specialty prepared foods, in that they taste great, are authentic and are made with high-quality ingredients. The market for specialty and prepared foods spans several sections of the supermarket, including deli-prepared foods and the specialty meat segment of the meat department.
 Our Strengths
 We believe that the following strengths differentiate our products and our brands:
 • Authentic recipes and great taste. Our MamaMancini's products are founded upon Anna "Mama" Mancini's old-world Italian recipes. We believe the authenticity of our products has enabled us to build and maintain loyalty and trust among our current customers and will help us attract new customers. Additionally, we continuously receive positive customer testimonials regarding the great taste and quality of our products.
 • Healthy and convenient. Our products are made only from high-quality natural ingredients and are simple to prepare. Virtually every product we offer is ready-to-serve within 10 minutes, thereby providing quick and easy meal solutions for our customers. By including the sauce and utilizing a tray with our packaging, our products can be prepared quickly and easily.
 • Great value. We strive to provide our customers with great-tasting products using healthy ingredients at an affordable price, many of which are all-natural. Typical retail prices range from $7.99 to $9.99 per pound for freshly prepared products sold in delis or hot bars. We believe the sizes of our product offerings represent a great value for the price.
 • New products and innovation. Since our inception, we have continued to introduce new and innovative products. While we pride ourselves on our traditional beef and turkey meatballs and grilled chicken offerings, we have continuously made efforts to grow and diversify our line of products while maintaining our high standards for healthy ingredients and great taste.

 Customers/Management
 • Strong consumer loyalty. Many of our consumers are loyal and enthusiastic brand advocates. Our consumers trust us to deliver great-tasting products made with healthy or all-natural ingredients. They have actively communicated with us through our website and/or social media channels. We believe that this interaction has generated interest in our products and has inspired enthusiasm for our brand. We also believe that enthusiasm for our products has led and will continue to lead to repeat purchases and new consumers trying our products.
 • Agile customer support: We meet the needs of not just our end consumers but also our customers and retail partners. Having a strong track record of more than 15 years, our retail partners trust our quality and can rely on our service. Through T&L Creative Salads and Olive Branch, we now serve as a "one-stop-shop" deli solution for them. Tangibly, this means that retail buyers don't need to manage dozens of regional, specialty suppliers on a daily basis, but rather call Mama's Creations to deliver all of their proteins, salads, sandwiches and entertaining needs nationwide.
 • Experienced leadership. We have a proven and experienced senior management team. Our leadership team includes Adam L. Michaels, Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Anthony Gruber, Chief Financial Officer ("CFO").
 Our Growth Strategy
 We are actively executing a strategy to build our brand's reputation, grow sales and improve our product and operating margins by pursuing the following growth initiatives:
 • Build Breadth & Depth of Distribution: We believe our brands, MamaMancini's, T&L Creative Salads and Olive Branch, are still under-penetrated in existing sales channels, under-SKU'd in existing stores and have the potential to enter new channels. We will leverage our strong brand, superior quality and high-touch service to list more of our items in existing customers as well as enter new customers. In addition, we will be leveraging our existing customer relationships to cross-sell our newly acquired brands, thereby driving larger consumer baskets, expanding promotional opportunities, and driving down freight charges, as we are shipping more Mama's items to the same locations.
 • Launch Consumer-Driven Innovation: As we become even more consumer-focused, we seek to understand consumers' unmet deli needs. We will passionately understand our consumers and develop incremental sales opportunities. We will seek to develop products that capture incremental occasions, consumer groups and sales channels. For example, our Meatballs in a Cup solutions, as well as our retail-pack paninis, provide (1) for a "new for us" snacking occasion incremental to our current meal offerings, (2) an attraction to a younger, on-the-go consumer audience, and (3) for an incremental sales channel with entry into the Convenience Store channel.
 • Pursue Accretive, Complementary Acquisitions: We plan to identify and integrate major acquisitions in new deli categories when opportunities arise, capitalizing on the highly fragmented nature of the fresh prepared foods space. Ideal acquisition opportunities might bring incremental/accretive manufacturing capabilities and product capabilities within a new deli sub-category, strengthen our distribution capabilities, and/or enhance our management capabilities.
 • Become the One-Stop-Shop Deli Solution: We believe the Company has the potential to achieve $1 billion in sales through a combination of accretive acquisitions of complementary companies and organic growth, spurred by cross-selling and new product innovation. As the Company builds national scale, expands its breadth of deli offerings and maintains exceptional quality and service, the Company believes it will realize this vision.
 Pricing
 Our pricing strategy focuses on being competitively priced with other premium brands. Since our products are positioned in the authentic premium prepared food category, we maintain prices competitive with those of similar products and prices slightly higher than those in the commodity prepared foods section. This pricing strategy also provides greater long-term flexibility as we grow our product line through the growth curve of our products. Current typical retail prices range from $7.99 to $9.99 for prepared food products sold to delis or hot bars. Increases in commodity costs, among other factors, may lead us to consider price increases in the future.
 Suppliers/Manufacturers
 As of January 31, 2025, approximately 95% of our products are internally produced in our East Rutherford, NJ or Farmingdale, NY facilities. None of our raw materials or ingredients are directly grown or produced by us. From time-to-time we negotiate with other manufacturers to supplement the Company's manufacturing capability. We currently purchase

 modest quantities from other manufacturers. Substantially all of the raw materials and ingredients in our products are domestically sourced and are readily available by our suppliers. We have not experienced any material shortages of ingredients or other products necessary to our operations and do not anticipate such shortages in the foreseeable future.
 Sales/Brokers
 Our products are sold primarily through a commission broker network. We sell to large retail chains who direct our products to their own warehouses or to large food distributors.
 The Company increased its sales management efforts with the result that the Company is now actively soliciting business with almost every major retail supermarket chain in the country. The Company's products are currently sold nationwide.
 Marketing
 The majority of our marketing activity has been generated through promotional discounts, consumer trials, consumer product tastings and demonstrations, in-store merchandising and signage, couponing, word of mouth, consumer public relations, social media, special merchandising events with retailers and consumer advertising.
 Based on the Company's metrics for determining brand awareness, which include market studies and analysis of consumer recognition of the MamaMancini's brand, the Company believes that brand awareness for MamaMancini's has grown in the past 12 months.
 Competition
 The gourmet and specialty prepared food industry is fragmented and has many private competitors specializing in various types of cuisine from all over the world. While our product lines have historically been concentrated on Italian specialty foods, with our recent acquisitions, we have moved beyond Italian to provide a "one-stop-shop" for our deli partners. While it is our contention that our competition is much more limited than the prepared food industry based on our products' niche market, there can be no assurances that we do not compete with the entire pre-packaged food industry. We believe our principal competitors include Amylu, Bakkavor, Blount Fine Foods, DeLallo Foods, Hormel, Premium Brands, Reser's, Sandridge, Spring Glen, and Taylor Farms.
 Intellectual Property
 Our current intellectual property consists of trade secret recipes and cooking processes for our products and five trademarks for "MamaMancini's," "The Meatball Lovers Meatball," "The Original Meatball in a Cup," "The Olive Branch," and "Mama's Creations." The recipes and use of the trademarks have been assigned in perpetuity to the Company.
 We rely on a combination of trademark, copyright and trade secret laws to establish and protect our proprietary rights. We will also use technical measures to protect our proprietary rights.
 Human Capital
 As of January 31, 2025, we had 305 full-time employees and no part-time employees. Currently, none are covered by collective bargaining agreements. We believe that our relations with our employees are good. Our human capital resources objectives include, as applicable, identifying, recruiting, retaining, incentivizing and integrating our existing and additional employees. The principal purposes of our equity incentive plans are to attract, retain and reward personnel through grants of equity-based compensation awards in order to emphasize increasing stockholder value and our success by motivating such individuals to perform to the best of their abilities and achieve our objectives.
 We recognize that a significant part of our success is the continued ability to execute our human capital strategy of attracting, developing and retaining talent. We also offer a robust set of benefits in order to recruit and retain employees, and are committed to creating an inclusive work environment designed to make employees and consultants feel comfortable and accepted. We continue to take action to help ensure our practices, policies, and processes are inclusive and equitable for all colleagues.
 Royalty Agreement
 In accordance with a Development and License Agreement (the "Development and License Agreement") entered into on January 1, 2009 with Dan Dougherty relating to the use of his grandmother's recipes for the products to be created by Mama's, Mr. Dougherty granted us a 50-year exclusive license (subject to certain minimum payments being made), with a

 25-year extension option, to use and commercialize the licensed items. Under the terms of the Development and License Agreement, Mr. Dougherty shall develop a line of beef meatballs with sauce, turkey meatballs with sauce and other similar meats and sauces for commercial manufacture, distribution and sale (each a "Licensor Product" and collectively the "Licensor Products"). Mr. Dougherty shall work with us to develop Licensor Products that are acceptable to the Company. Upon acceptance of a Licensor Product by us, Mr. Dougherty's trade secret recipes, formulas, methods and ingredients for the preparation and production of such Licensor Products shall be subject to the Development and License Agreement.
 USDA Approval/Regulations
 Our food products, which are manufactured both in our own manufacturing facilities and in third-party facilities, are subject to various federal, state and local regulations and inspections regarding sanitation, quality, packaging and labeling. In order to distribute and sell our products outside the State of New Jersey and the State of New York, the third-party food processing facilities must meet the standards promulgated by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (the "USDA"). Our manufacturing processing facilities and products are subject to periodic inspection by federal, state, and local authorities. The facilities in which our products are manufactured are inspected regularly and comply with all the requirements of the Food and Drug Administration ("the FDA") and USDA.
 We are subject to the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and regulations promulgated thereunder by the FDA as well as related legislation, including the Food Safety Modernization Act. This comprehensive regulatory program governs, among other things, the manufacturing, composition and ingredients, packaging, and safety of food. Under this program, the FDA regulates manufacturing practices for foods through, among other things, its current "good manufacturing practices" regulations, or GMPs, and specifies the recipes for certain foods. Specifically, the USDA defines "all-natural" as a product that contains no artificial ingredients, coloring ingredients or chemical preservatives and is minimally processed. Many of our Mama Mancini's products were submitted to the USDA and approved as "all-natural." However, should the USDA change its definition of "all-natural" at some point in the future, or should Mama's change these existing recipes to include ingredients that do not meet the USDA's definition of "all-natural," we may need to modify our labeling and our results of operations could be adversely affected.
 The Federal Trade Commission ("the FTC") and other authorities regulate how we market and advertise our products, and we are currently in compliance with all regulations related thereto, although we could be the target of claims relating to alleged false or deceptive advertising under federal and state laws and regulations. Changes in these laws or regulations or the introduction of new laws or regulations could increase the costs of doing business for us or our customers or suppliers or restrict our actions, causing our results of operations to be adversely affected.
 Quality Assurance
 We take precautions designed to ensure the quality and safety of our products. In addition to routine third-party inspections of our manufacturing facilities, we have instituted regular audits to address topics such as allergen control, ingredient, packaging and product specifications, and sanitation. Under the FDA Food Modernization Act, both our own manufacturing facilities and each of our contract manufacturers are required to have a hazard analysis critical control points plan that identifies critical pathways for contaminants and mandates control measures that must be used to prevent, eliminate or reduce relevant food-borne hazards.
 Our manufacturing facilities are certified in the Safe Quality Food Program ("SQF") as level II facilities. These standards are integrated food safety and quality management protocols designed specifically for the food sector and offer a comprehensive methodology to manage food safety and quality simultaneously. Certification provides an independent and external validation that a product, process or service complies with applicable regulations and standards.

 Item 1A. Risk Factors
 Risks Related to our Business
 We have a limited history of profitability.
 Since inception on February 22, 2010 and through January 31, 2025, we have raised approximately $23.3 million in capital. During this same period, we have recorded net profit totaling approximately $0.2 million. As of January 31, 2025, we had working capital of approximately $4.9 million. Our net income for the three most recent fiscal years ended January 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 has been approximately $3.7 million, $6.6 million, and $2.3 million, respectively. Our ability to achieve continued profitability depends upon many factors, including our ability to develop and commercialize products. There can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve growth and profitability consistent with historical performance.
 We may need additional capital, which may be difficult to raise for a variety of reasons.
 While we believe that we have adequate financing to execute our current growth plan, in the case that we exceed our expected growth, we will need to raise additional capital and/or significantly cut expenses and overhead in order to operate the business through such date. Currently, we have no plan to raise additional capital, and our access to funding is always uncertain. There is no assurance that additional equity or debt financing will be available to us when needed, on acceptable terms or even at all. In the event that we are not able to secure financing, we may have to scale back our development plans or operations.
 The majority of our business depends on a limited number of principal customers.
 Because we depend on a limited number of customers for a significant portion of our sales, a loss of a small number of these customers could materially adversely affect our business and financial condition. During the year ended January 31, 2025, the Company earned revenues from one customer representing approximately 44% of gross sales. As of January 31, 2025, two customers represented approximately 38% and 16% of total gross outstanding receivables, respectively. During the year ended January 31, 2024, the Company earned revenues from three customers representing approximately 26%, 11%, and 10% of gross sales, respectively. As of January 31, 2024, four customers represented approximately 20%, 15%, 13% and 10% of total gross outstanding receivables. During the year ended January 31, 2023 two customers represented approximately 25% and 13% of gross sales, respectively. If these principal customers cease ordering products from us, our business could be materially adversely affected.
 Competitive product and pricing pressures in the food industry and the financial condition of customers and suppliers could adversely affect our ability to gain or maintain market share and/or profitability.
 We currently operate in the highly competitive food industry, competing with other companies that have varying abilities to withstand changing market conditions. Any significant change in our relationship with a major customer, including changes in product prices, sales volume, or contractual terms may impact financial results. Such changes may result because our competitors may have substantial financial, marketing, and other resources that may change the competitive environment. If we are unable to establish economies of scale, marketing expertise, product innovation, and category leadership positions to respond to changing market trends, or increase prices while maintaining a customer base, our profitability and volume growth could be impacted in a materially adverse way. The success of our business depends, in part, upon the financial strength and viability of our suppliers and customers. The financial condition of those suppliers and customers is affected in large part by conditions and events that are beyond our control. A significant deterioration of their financial condition would adversely affect our financial results.
 We face competition from companies who produce similar products and other prepared foods, many of whom have longer operating histories or have substantially more financial resources.
 Many of our competitors have been in business for a significantly longer period of time than we have and have learned manufacturing techniques which can aid in efficiently producing their products. Additionally, many of these companies have successfully acquired a loyal customer base that would be difficult for us to compete with. Such customers may be unwilling to purchase our products due to brand loyalty or uncertainty in the highly competitive market in which we compete. In addition, if we gain traction in our particular niche of creating gourmet prepared foods, major food companies with substantial marketing and financial resources may attempt to compete more directly with us. In the event that such large companies do directly compete with us, our business may be adversely affected.

 Our operations are subject to regulation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"), U.S. Department of Agriculture ("USDA"), Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") and other governmental entities and such regulations are subject to change from time to time, which could impact how we manage our production and sale of products. Federal budget cuts could result in furloughs for government employees, including inspectors and reviewers for our suppliers' plants and products, which could materially impact our ability to manufacture regulated products.
 Our food products are manufactured in facilities that are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA, the USDA and other national, state, and local authorities. For example, we are subject to the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and regulations promulgated thereunder by the FDA. This comprehensive regulatory program governs, among other things, the manufacturing, composition and ingredients, packaging, and safety of food. Under this program, the FDA regulates manufacturing practices for foods through, among other things, its current "good manufacturing practices" regulations, or GMPs, and specifies the recipes for certain foods. Specifically, the USDA defines "all-natural" as a product that contains no artificial ingredients, coloring ingredients or chemical preservatives and is minimally processed. Many of our MamaMancini's products were submitted to the USDA and approved as "all-natural." However, should the USDA change its definition of "all-natural" at some point in the future, or should the Company change these existing recipes to include ingredients that do not meet the USDA's definition of "all-natural," we may need to change our labeling and our results of operations could be adversely affected.
 The FTC and other authorities regulate how we market and advertise our products, and we could be the target of claims relating to alleged false or deceptive advertising under federal and state laws and regulations. Changes in these laws or regulations or the introduction of new laws or regulations could increase the costs of doing business for us or our customers or suppliers or restrict our actions, causing our results of operations to be adversely affected.
 The need for and effect of product recalls could have a material adverse impact on our business.
 We could be required, and in some instances have in the past been required to, recall certain products due to labeling, contamination, damage, or tampering, whether caused by us or someone in our supply chain. A widespread recall or market withdrawal could result in significant losses due to the cost of a recall or withdrawal, the destruction of inventory, potential liability claims, and lost sales. The costs associated with recalls could be impacted by issues encountered in tracing products within our facilities or in the supply chain. In addition, a product recall or withdrawal could also result in adverse publicity and a loss of confidence in our products, which could have a material impact on our business.
 In addition, we purchase ingredients from third-party suppliers. If these materials include contaminants that impact the safety or quality of our products, we may need to find alternate materials, delay production, or dispose of our inventory, which could impact our operations. Additionally, if this occurs after the product has been distributed, we may need to withdraw or recall the affected product and we may be subject to liability claims. We cannot assure that we will not be required to perform recalls, or that liability claims will not be asserted against us in the future.
 We may be subject to significant liability if the consumption of any of our products causes illness or physical harm.
 The sale of food products for human consumption involves the risk of injury or illness to consumers. Such injuries or illness may result from inadvertent mislabeling, tampering or product contamination or spoilage. Under certain circumstances, we may be required to recall or withdraw products, which may have a material adverse effect on our business. Even if a situation does not necessitate a recall or market withdrawal, product liability claims may be asserted against us. If the consumption of any of our products causes, or is alleged to have caused, a health-related illness, we may become subject to claims or lawsuits relating to such matters. Even if a product liability claim is unsuccessful, the negative publicity surrounding any assertion that our products caused illness or physical harm could adversely affect our reputation with existing and potential distributors, retailers and consumers and our corporate image and brand equity. Moreover, claims or liabilities of this sort might not be covered by insurance or by any rights of indemnity or contribution that we may have against others. A product liability judgment against us or a product recall or market withdrawal could have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation and operating results.
 The impact of various food safety issues, environmental, legal, tax, and other regulations and related developments could adversely affect our sales and profitability.
 Our products are subject to numerous food safety and other laws and regulations regarding the manufacturing, marketing, and distribution of food products, particularly by the USDA and state and local agencies. These regulations govern matters such as ingredients, advertising, taxation, relations with distributors and retailers, health and safety matters, and environmental concerns. The ineffectiveness of our manufacturer's planning and policies with respect to these matters, and the need to comply with new or revised laws or regulations with regard to licensing requirements, trade and pricing

 practices, environmental permitting, or other food or safety matters, or new interpretations or enforcement of existing laws and regulations, as well as any related litigation, may have a material adverse effect on our sales and profitability.
 Increases in the cost and restrictions on the availability of raw materials could adversely affect our financial results.
 Our products include agricultural commodities such as tomatoes, onions, poultry, meats and other items such as spices and flour, as well as packaging materials such as plastic, metal, paper, fiberboard, and other materials and inputs such as water, in order to manufacture products. The availability or cost of such commodities may fluctuate widely due to government policy and regulation, crop failures or shortages due to plant disease or insect and other pest infestation, weather conditions, potential impact of climate change, increased demand for biofuels, or other unforeseen circumstances. To the extent that any of the foregoing or other unknown factors increase the prices of such commodities or materials and we are unable to increase our prices or adequately hedge against such changes in a manner that offsets such changes, the results of our operations could be materially and adversely affected. Similarly, if supplier arrangements and relationships result in increased and unforeseen expenses, our financial results could be materially and adversely impacted.
 Disruption of our supply chain could adversely affect our business.
 Damage or disruption to our manufacturing or distribution capabilities due to weather, natural disaster, fire, terrorism, pandemic, strikes, the financial and/or operational instability of key suppliers, distributors, warehousing and transportation providers, or brokers, or any other reasons could impair our ability to manufacture or sell our products. To the extent that we are unable to, or cannot financially mitigate the likelihood or potential impact of such events, or to effectively manage such events if they occur, particularly when a product is sourced from a single location, our business and results of operations may be materially adversely affected, and additional resources could be required to restore our supply chain.
 Higher energy costs and other factors affecting the cost of producing, transporting, and distributing our products could adversely affect our financial results.
 Rising fuel and energy costs may have a significant impact on our cost of operations, including the manufacture, transportation, and distribution of products. Fuel costs may fluctuate due to a number of factors outside of our control, including government policy and regulation and weather conditions. Additionally, we may be unable to maintain favorable arrangements with respect to the manufacturing costs of our products as a result of the rise in costs of procuring raw materials and transportation by our manufacturers. This may result in increased expenses and negatively affect operations.
 Global economic uncertainties continue to affect consumers' purchasing habits and customer financial stability, which may affect sales volume and profitability on some of our products and have other impacts that we cannot fully predict.
 As a result of continuing global economic uncertainties, price-conscious consumers may replace their purchases of our premium and value-added products with lower-cost alternatives, which may impact the price and volume of some of these products. The volume or profitability of our products may be impacted if consumers are reluctant to pay a premium for higher quality foods or if they replace purchases of our products with cheaper alternatives. Additionally, distributors and retailers may become more conservative in response to these conditions and seek to reduce their inventories. Our results of operations depend upon, among other things, our ability to maintain and increase sales volume with our existing distributors and retailers, to attract new consumers and to provide products that appeal to consumers at prices they are willing and able to pay. Prolonged unfavorable economic conditions may impact our sales and profitability.
 We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain, motivate key personnel, or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to grow effectively.
 Our success depends in large part upon the abilities and continued service of our executive officers and other key employees, particularly Mr. Adam L. Michaels, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman and Anthony Gruber, our Chief Financial Officer. There can be no assurance that we will be able to retain the services of such officers and employees. Our failure to retain the services of our key personnel could have a materially adverse effect on our business. In order to support our projected growth, we will be required to effectively recruit, hire, train, and retain additional qualified management personnel. Our inability to attract and retain necessary personnel could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
 The failure of new product or packaging introductions to gain trade and consumer acceptance and address changes in consumer preferences could adversely affect our sales.

 Our success is dependent upon anticipating and reacting to changes in consumer preferences, including health and wellness. There are inherent marketplace risks associated with new product or packaging introductions, including uncertainties about trade and consumer acceptance. Moreover, success is dependent upon our ability to identify and respond to consumer trends through innovation. We may be required to increase expenditures for new product development, and there is no guarantee that we will be successful in developing new products or improving upon products already in existence. Additionally, our new products may not achieve consumer acceptance and could materially negatively impact sales.
 Changes in our promotional activities may impact, and may have a disproportionate effect on, our overall financial condition and results of operations.
 We offer a variety of sales and promotion incentives to our customers and to consumers, such as price discounts, consumer coupons, volume rebates, cooperative marketing programs, slotting fees, and in-store displays. Our net sales may periodically be influenced by the introduction and discontinuance of sales and promotion incentives. Reductions in overall sales and promotion incentives could impact our net sales and affect our results of operations in any particular fiscal quarter.
 We may not be able to successfully implement our growth strategy on a timely basis or at all.
 Our future success depends, in large part, on our ability to implement our growth strategy of expanding distribution and improving placement of our products, attracting new consumers to our brand and introducing new product lines and product extensions. Our ability to implement this growth strategy depends, among other things, on our ability to:
 • enter into distribution and other strategic arrangements with third-party retailers and other potential distributors of our products;
 • continue to compete in conventional grocery and mass merchandiser retail channels in addition to the natural and organic channel;
 • secure shelf space in key supermarket locations;
 • increase our brand awareness;
 • expand and maintain brand loyalty; and
 • develop new product lines and extensions.
 We may not be able to successfully implement our growth strategy. Our sales and operating results will be adversely affected if we fail to implement our growth strategy or if we invest resources in a growth strategy that ultimately proves unsuccessful.
 We are currently selling products in food retailers in the United States. If we are unable to expand into additional mass-market retailers or sell products in a greater number of supermarkets, we will fall short of our projections and our business and financial condition would be adversely affected.
 As a smaller supplier, we may not sell enough items in certain stores, and as such as our products may not be placed in the most ideal locations to catch the attention of end consumers. If we are unable to gain significant sales growth, our products may never be displayed in the most attractive locations in stores and our sales may suffer.
 We may be unable to successfully execute our identified growth strategies or other growth strategies that we determine to pursue.
 We currently have a limited corporate infrastructure. In order to pursue growth strategies, we will need to continue to build our infrastructure and operational capabilities. Our ability to do any of these successfully could be affected by one or more of the following factors:
 • our ability to raise substantial amounts of additional capital if needed to fund the implementation of our business plan;
 • our ability to execute our business strategy;

 • the ability of our products to achieve market acceptance;
 • our ability to manage the expansion of our operations and any acquisitions we may make, which could result in increased costs, high employee turnover or damage to customer relationships;
 • our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel;
 • our ability to manage our third-party relationships effectively; and
 • our ability to accurately predict and respond to the rapid market changes in our industry and the evolving demands of the markets we serve.
 Our failure to adequately address any one or more of the above factors could have a significant impact on our ability to implement our business plan and our ability to pursue other opportunities that arise.
 We may be unable to maintain quality control.
 Although we have entered into raw material supply agreements specifying certain minimum acceptable quality standards, there is no assurance that our current quality assurance procedures will be able to effectively monitor compliance. Additionally, in the event that we expand our operations and increase our output volume, including securing third-party manufacturers, there is no assurance that we will be able to adequately maintain quality controls or that our current manufacturing process is scalable.
 There may be product liability and other legal claims.
 We currently carry product liability insurance. Although we believe that the amount of insurance coverage is sufficient for our operations, there is no assurance that the coverage will be adequate.
 Our brand and reputation may suffer from real or perceived issues involving the labeling and marketing of our products as "natural."
 Although the FDA and USDA have each issued statements regarding the appropriate use of the word "natural," there is no single, U.S. government-regulated definition of the term "natural" for use in the food industry. The resulting uncertainty has led to consumer confusion, distrust and legal challenges. Plaintiffs have commenced legal actions against a number of food companies that market "natural" products, asserting false, misleading and deceptive advertising, and labeling claims. Should we become subject to similar claims, consumers may avoid purchasing products from us or seek alternatives, even if the basis for the claim is unfounded. Adverse publicity about these matters may discourage consumers from buying our products. The cost of defending against any such claims could be significant. Any loss of confidence on the part of consumers in the truthfulness of our labeling or ingredient claims would be difficult and costly to overcome and may significantly reduce our brand value. Uncertainty as to the ingredients used in our products, regardless of the cause, may have a substantial and adverse effect on our brand and our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 Our finished goods inventory is located in a small number of warehouse facilities. Any damage or disruption at a storage facility would have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 Our finished goods inventory is located in a small number of warehouse facilities. A natural disaster, fire, power interruption, work stoppage, or other unanticipated catastrophic event at these facilities would significantly disrupt our ability to deliver our products and operate our business. If any material amount of our inventory were damaged, we would be unable to meet our contractual obligations and, as a result, our business, results of operations and financial condition would suffer.
 We may be unable to defend our intellectual property.
 Our business could be adversely affected if we are unable to adequately protect our intellectual property. Our current intellectual property consists of trade secret recipes and cooking processes for our products and trademarks. We rely on a combination of trademark, copyright and trade secret laws to establish and protect our proprietary rights. We will also use technical measures to protect our proprietary rights. We may, however, not be able to secure significant protection for service marks or trademarks that we obtain. Our inability to protect our intellectual property from others may impede our brand identity and could lead to consumer confusion.

 Our intellectual property rights are valuable, and any inability to protect them could reduce the value of our services and brand.
 Our business is largely based upon our recipes, which are trade secrets and are not patentable. We may be unable to keep other companies from copying our recipes, or we may be subject to legal actions alleging intellectual property infringement, unfair competition or similar claims against us. Companies may have intellectual property rights covering aspects of our technologies or businesses. Defending ourselves against intellectual property infringement or similar claims would be expensive and would divert management's attention. Additionally, there is no assurance that we would be successful in defending ourselves against such claims.
 Cyberattacks impacting our computer networks or information technology systems could have an adverse impact on our business.
 Cyberattacks, including through the use of ransomware, denial of service attacks, malware, computer viruses, and other means for obtaining unauthorized access to or disrupting the operation of our computer networks or information technology systems and those of our suppliers and/or vendors, could have an adverse impact on our business. Cyberattacks may cause equipment failures, loss of information, as well as disruptions to our or our customers' operations. Cyberattacks against companies have increased in frequency, scope, and potential harm in recent years. While, to date, we have not been subject to cyberattacks that, individually or in the aggregate, have been material to our operations, the preventive actions we take to reduce the risks associated with cyberattacks, including protection of our systems and networks, may be insufficient in the future. In addition, as our company grows in size, we may become more of a target for these types of attacks. Moreover, the rapid evolution and increased adoption of new technologies, such as artificial intelligence, may intensify our cybersecurity risks.
 The inability to operate or use our information technology systems or those of our suppliers or vendors, even for a limited period of time, may result in significant expenses and/or a loss of market share.
 Damage to our reputation can adversely impact our business
 Maintaining a positive reputation is important to selling our products. Our reputation could in the future be adversely impacted by a variety of factors including: any failure by us, a business partner, or other actors in the supply chain to maintain our standards. Any failure or perception of a failure can result in damage to our reputation, which could in the future decrease demand for our products, thereby impacting our business.
 Political and social conditions can impact our business
 Political and social conditions in the United States of America could be difficult to predict, impacting our business. The results of elections, and other political conditions including: government shutdowns, wars and other military conflicts could impact how existing laws, regulations and government programs or policies are implemented and/or result in uncertainty as to how such laws and regulations may change, including environmental and climate change policies, taxes, tariffs, and governmental benefit programs.
 Increases in income tax rates, changes in income tax laws or disagreements with tax authorities may impact our financial performance
 Increases in income tax rates or changes in tax laws, including how existing laws are interpreted, may impact our financial performance. For example, economic and political conditions in the United States may result in significant changes in tax legislation and regulation. We are subject to regular examinations by numerous taxing authorities with respect to income taxes. Pressure to increase tax revenues in locations where we operate may make resolving tax disputes more difficult and impact our financial performance.
 Risks Related To Our Securities
 We currently have a limited trading volume, which can result in higher price volatility for, and reduced liquidity of, our common stock.
 Our shares of common stock traded on the OTCQB from 2013 to July 2021 and on the Nasdaq Capital Market from July 2021 to the present date. While we have upgraded our listing, historically there has been limited daily volume of trading in our common stock, which has limited the overall and perceived liquidity of our common stock on that market.

 A more active trading market for our shares may never develop or be sustained. Active trading markets generally result in lower price volatility and more efficient execution of buy and sell orders. The absence of an active trading market increases price volatility and reduces the liquidity of our common stock. As long as this condition continues, the sale of a significant number of shares of common stock at any particular time could be difficult to achieve at the market prices prevailing immediately before such shares are offered and, if an active market for our common stock does not develop, it may be difficult to sell shares without depressing the market price for the shares, or at all. In addition, in the event that an active trading market does not develop, the price of our common stock may not be a reliable indicator of the fair value of our common stock.
 Furthermore, if our common stock ceases to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market or other national exchange, holders may find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of, our common stock, and the market value of our common stock would likely decline.
 You may experience dilution of your ownership interest because of the future issuance of additional shares of our common stock and our preferred stock.
 In the future, we may issue our authorized but previously unissued equity securities, resulting in the dilution of the ownership interests of our present stockholders. We are currently authorized to issue an aggregate of 270 million shares of capital stock, consisting of 20 million shares of preferred stock, par value $0.00001 per share and 250 million shares of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share.
 We may also issue additional shares of our common stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for common stock in connection with hiring or retaining employees or consultants, future acquisitions, future sales of our securities for capital raising purposes, or for other business purposes. The future issuance of any such additional shares of our common stock or other securities may create downward pressure on the trading price of our common stock. There can be no assurance that we will not be required to issue additional shares, warrants or other convertible securities in the future in conjunction with hiring or retaining employees or consultants, future acquisitions, future sales of our securities for capital raising purposes or for other business purposes, including at a price (or exercise prices) below the price at which shares of our common stock are trading.
 If and when a larger trading market for our common stock develops, the market price of our common stock is still likely to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations, and you may be unable to resell your shares at or above the price at which you acquired them.
 The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors that are beyond our control, including, but not limited to:
 • variations in our revenue and operating expenses;
 • market conditions in our industry and the economy as a whole;
 • actual or expected changes in our growth rates or our competitors' growth rates;
 • announcements of innovations or new products or services by us or our competitors;
 • announcements by the government relating to regulations that govern our industry;
 • sales of our common stock or other securities by us or in the open market; and
 • changes in the market valuations of other comparable companies.
 In addition, if the market for food industry stocks or the stock market in general experiences loss of investor confidence, the trading price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, financial condition or operating results. The trading price of our shares might also decline in reaction to events that affect other companies in our industry, even if these events do not directly affect us. Each of these factors, among others, could harm the value of your investment in our common stock. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted against companies. Such litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and diversion of management's attention and resources, which could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
 We do not expect to pay dividends.

 We have never declared or paid any cash dividends or distributions on our common stock. We currently intend to retain our future earnings, if any, to support operations and to finance expansion, and therefore we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.
 The declaration, payment, and amount of any future dividends will be made at the discretion of the Board of Directors, and will depend upon, among other things, the results of our operations, cash flows and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and other factors as the Board of Directors considers relevant. There is no assurance that future dividends will be paid, and, if dividends are paid, there is no assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend. If the Company does not pay dividends, the Company's common stock may be less valuable because a return on an investor's investment will only occur if the Company's stock price appreciates.
 If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about us, our business or our market, or if they change their recommendations regarding our stock adversely, our stock price and trading volume could decline.
 The trading market for our common stock will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. If any of the analysts who may cover us change their recommendation regarding our stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, our stock price would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease coverage of our company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.
 We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. If remediation of these material weaknesses is not effective, or if we identify additional material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately or timely report our financial condition or results of operations, which may adversely impact investor confidence and, as a result, the value of our common stock.
 In connection with the preparation of our financial statements for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, we identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weaknesses identified generally relate to (1) inadequate segregation of duties between the IT and accounting functions, (2) not maintaining adequate support for authorization and approval of certain transactions recorded in the Company's IT systems, including those obtained through electronic data interface, and (3) inadequate documentation of review procedures, including those associated with level of precision, investigating and resolving outliers, and evaluating the completeness and accuracy of information produced by the entity, including those obtained from certain service organizations which require that complementary user entity controls are suitably designed and operating effectively.
 We may not be able to fully remediate the identified material weaknesses. If the steps we take do not correct the material weaknesses in a timely manner, we will be unable to conclude that the Company maintains effective internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, there could continue to be a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We also may incur significant costs to execute various aspects of our remediation plan but cannot provide a reasonable estimate of such costs at this time.
 In the future, it is possible that additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may be identified that we may be unable to remedy before the requisite deadline for these reports. Our ability to comply with the annual internal control reporting requirements will depend on the effectiveness of our financial reporting and data systems and controls across the Company. Any weaknesses or deficiencies or any failure to implement new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in the implementation or operation of these controls, could harm our operating results and cause us to fail to meet our financial reporting obligations, or result in material misstatements in our consolidated financial statements, which could adversely impact our business and reduce our stock price.
 If we are unable to conclude that we have effective internal control over financial reporting, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a material adverse effect on the trading price of our common shares. Failure to remedy any material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, or to implement or maintain other effective control systems required of public companies, could also restrict our future access to the capital markets.

 Item 1C. Cybersecurity.
 Cybersecurity is an important part of our risk management program for our Board of Directors and management. Our Board of Directors, through the Audit Committee, oversees management's approach to managing cybersecurity risks. The Audit Committee, comprised solely of independent directors, is charged with overseeing the Company's risk management program, including cybersecurity matters.
 The Company also maintains a robust cybersecurity infrastructure to safeguard our operations, networks and data through internal management and external service providers. Our cybersecurity risk management and strategy processes are led by our Chief Administrative Officer. This individual has over 30 years of prior work experience in various roles involving managing information systems and security, developing information security strategy, implementing effective information and cybersecurity programs, as well as a degree focusing on computer science. The Chief Administrative Officer is informed about and monitors the prevention, mitigation, detection, and remediation of cybersecurity incidents through their management and participation in the Company's cybersecurity risk management and strategy processes including the operation of our incident response plan. This management team member routinely discusses trends in cyber risks and our strategy with management and reports to the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors about cybersecurity threat risks, among other cybersecurity related matters, on a quarterly basis.
 We use a risk-based approach to identify, assess, protect, detect, respond to and recover from cybersecurity threats. Our information security program includes, among other aspects, antivirus and malware protection, encryption and access control, and employee training. Risks identified by the Chief Administrative Officer and other cybersecurity personnel are analyzed to determine the potential impact on us and the likelihood of occurrence. Such risks are continuously monitored to ensure that the circumstances and severity of such risks have not changed.
 In addition, we engage independent third-party cybersecurity providers for testing and vulnerability detection. We regularly engage with these providers to aid in the identification and remediation of potential threats. We also endeavor to apprise employees of emerging risks and provide security awareness training and supplemental training as needed.
 Material cybersecurity incidents are required to be reported to the Board of Directors. As of the date of this report, we are not aware of any risks from cybersecurity threats that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition.

 For the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company reported net income of approximately $3.7 million and $6.6 million, respectively. The change in net income between the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024 reflects strong revenue growth offset by manufacturing inefficiencies related to the capital improvement project at the Company's Farmingdale, New York facility and increased costs of commodities, primarily the cost of chicken, and other materials.
 Net Sales: Net Sales increased by approximately 19% to $123.3 million for the year ended January 31, 2025, from $103.3 million for the year ended January 31, 2024. The increase is due to higher volume of sales of existing products due to higher production capacity, introductions at new customers, introduction of new products at existing customers and successful pricing actions to recover the increased cost of commodities.
 Gross Profit: The gross profit margin was 25% and 29% for the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in gross profit margin is due to inefficiencies related to the capital improvement project at the Company's Farmingdale, New York facility and increased costs of commodities, primarily chicken, and other materials.
 Operating Expenses: Operating expenses increased by 20% during the year ended January 31, 2025, as compared to the year ended January 31, 2024. Operating expenses as a percentage of sales remained relatively consistent at 21% in both fiscal year 2025 and 2024. The approximate $4.2 million increase in total operating expenses is primarily attributable to the following:
 • Advertising expenses increased by approximately $1.1 million due to new digital strategies and an enhanced focus on marketing to help drive increased velocities of our existing products;
 • One-time legal settlement expense of approximately $900 thousand, due to the Settlement Agreement with directors;
 • Commission and royalty expenses rose by approximately $568 thousand due to increased sales;
 • Professional fees increased by approximately $474 thousand due to increased corporate activity due to the growth of the Company and fees associated with Sarbanes-Oxley 404(b) implementation;
 • Amortization of intangible assets increased by approximately $463 thousand due to the CIF Acquisition in the prior fiscal year;
 • Office and computer-related expenses increased by approximately $300 thousand due to growth of the company, increased office space, and investment in new software to drive efficiencies;
 • Travel-related expenses increased by approximately $170 thousand, due to a larger sales team and increased travel to national retailers;
 • Freight-related expenses increased by approximately $71 thousand due to increased sales offset by load-sharing between the Company's two manufacturing facilities; and

 • Insurance expenses decreased by approximately $204 thousand due to consolidation of policies.
 Other Income (Expenses): Other expenses decreased by approximately $373 thousand to approximately $171 thousand for the year ended January 31, 2025, as compared to approximately $544 thousand for the year ended January 31, 2024. The decrease is mainly due to a decrease in net interest expense of approximately $290 thousand, which was a result of lower debt balances outstanding as well as higher interest earned on Company cash balances.

 Liquidity and Capital Resources
 We finance our operations with internally generated funds, supplemented by credit arrangements with third parties, and, potentially, capital market financing.
 Working Capital:

 As of January 31, 2025, we had working capital of approximately $4.9 million as compared to working capital of approximately $6.9 million as of January 31, 2024, a decrease of approximately $2.0 million. The decrease in working capital is primarily attributable to a decrease in cash of approximately $3.9 million, which was used to purchase approximately $5.1 million of property plant and equipment, an increase in operating lease liabilities of approximately $414 thousand, and an increase in Promissory notes – related parties of approximately $300 thousand, offset by an increase in inventory of approximately $1.5 million due to increased sales, and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of approximately $373 thousand due to lower accrued taxes.
 Long-term Requirements:
 As of January 31, 2025, we have $0 outstanding under our Line of Credit Agreement, with a maximum capacity of $5.5 million, and approximately $2.9 million outstanding under our Term Loan Agreement with M&T Bank (the "Term Loan Agreement"). The Term Loan Agreement has a maturity date of January 17, 2027. In addition, we have payments of $750 thousand (plus accrued interest) due on December 29, 2025 pursuant to promissory notes issued to the sellers of T&L Creative Salads ("T&L") and Olive Branch LLC ("Olive Branch"), as discussed in Item 8, Note 6. In addition, we have a promissory note with a balance of $1.5 million with the sellers of CIF as discussed in Item 8, Note 6. This note is payable in common stock on June 28, 2025. We also have operating leases for offices and other facilities used for our operations, and finance leases comprised primarily of machinery and equipment, as discussed in Item 8, Note 11.
 Cash Flows:

 Net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended January 31, 2025 was approximately $5.2 million compared to net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended January 31, 2024 of approximately $11.6 million. Net income for the years ended January 31, 2025 and 2024 was approximately $3.7 million and $6.6 million, respectively. During the year ended January 31, 2025, net income was affected by non-cash adjustments of approximately $2.9 million and by changes in operating activities which used cash of approximately $1.4 million. During the year ended January 31, 2024, net income was affected by non-cash adjustments of approximately $2.8 million and changes in operating activities which provided cash of approximately $2.2 million.
 Net cash used in investing activities for the years ended January 31, 2025 was approximately $5.1 million as compared to approximately $1.4 million for the year ended January 31, 2024. For the year ended January 31, 2025, the Company used cash of approximately $5.1 million to purchase new machinery and equipment. For the year ended January 31, 2024, the cash used in investing activities consisted of approximately $786 thousand to purchase new machinery and equipment and $646 thousand for the acquisition of the remaining interest in CIF.
 Net cash used in financing activities for the year ended January 31, 2025 was approximately $4.0 million as compared to $3.5 million for the year ended January 31, 2024. During the year ended January 31, 2025, the Company had payments on the term loan, related party loans, and finance lease liabilities of approximately $1.7 million, $2.0 million, and $397 thousand, respectively. During the year ended January 31, 2024, the Company had payments on the term loan, line of credit, related party loans, and finance lease liabilities of approximately $1.7 million, $890 thousand, $750 thousand, and $272 thousand, respectively.
 Although the expected revenue growth and control of expenses lead management to believe that it is probable that the Company's cash resources will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements through at least the next twelve months, based on current and projected levels of operations, the Company may require additional funding to finance growth and achieve its strategic objectives. If such financing is required, there can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. In the event funding is not available on reasonable terms, the Company might be required to change its growth strategy and/or seek funding on an alternative basis, but there is no guarantee it will be able to do so.

 Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 See Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for information regarding recently issued accounting pronouncements.

 Critical Accounting Estimates
 The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP") requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and related notes. Critical accounting estimates are those estimates that, in accordance with GAAP, involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Management has determined that our most critical accounting estimates are those relating to the fair value of stock-based compensation, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, and estimates for unrealized returns, discounts, and other allowances that are netted against revenue. Although we believe that the estimates we use are reasonable, actual results reported in future periods could differ materially from those estimates. The following is a summary of certain accounting estimates we consider critical. For further discussion about our accounting policies, see Note 2 "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report.
 Goodwill
 Goodwill is the excess of the consideration paid for a business over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill and other indefinite lived intangible assets are not amortized. Instead, these assets are reviewed at least annually for impairment. The Company has the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. However, the Company may elect to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test even if no indications of a potential impairment exist.
 When performing its quantitative annual goodwill impairment test, the Company is comparing the fair value with its carrying amount. The Company would recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value; however, the loss recognized would not exceed the total amount of goodwill. Additionally, the Company considers income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount when measuring the

 goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The fair value is estimated using discounted cash flow methodologies, as well as considering third party market value indicators. The Company's use of a discounted cash flow methodology includes estimates of future revenue based upon budgets and projections. The Company also develops estimates for future levels of gross and operating profits and projected capital expenditures. The Company's methodology also includes the use of estimated discount rates based upon industry and competitor analysis as well as other factors. Calculating the fair value requires significant estimates and assumptions by management. Should the estimates and assumptions regarding the fair value of the reporting units prove to be incorrect, the Company may be required to record impairments to its goodwill in future periods and such impairments could be material.
 As of January 31, 2025, there were no impairment losses recognized for goodwill.
 Other Intangibles
 Amortizable intangible assets, including tradenames and trademarks, are amortized on a straight-line basis over 3 years. Customer relationships are amortized on a straight-line basis over 4 to 5 years.
 Revenue Recognition
 The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with FASB Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).
 The Company's sales are primarily generated from the sale of finished products to customers. Revenue is recognized when the performance obligation is satisfied, and the promised goods have been transferred. Control transfers when the product is shipped or delivered based upon applicable shipping terms. For each contract, the Company considers the transfer of product to be the performance obligation. Although some payment terms may be extended, generally the Company's payment terms are approximately 15- 30 days. Accordingly, there is no significant financing components to consider when determining the transaction price. The Company elected to treat shipping and handling activities as fulfillment activities, and the related costs are recorded as selling expenses in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
 The Company promotes its products with trade incentives and promotions. These programs include discounts, slotting fees, coupons, rebates, in-store display incentives and volume-based incentives. The trade incentives and promotions are recorded as a reduction to the transaction price based on amounts estimated as being due to customers at the end of the period. The Company derives these estimates based on historical experience. The Company does not receive a distinct service in relation to the trade incentives and promotions. The Company's contracts are all short term in nature; therefore, there are no unsatisfied performance obligations requiring disclosure as of January 31, 2025.
 Stock-Based Compensation
 The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model or Monte Carlo simulation to determine the fair value of equity-based grants, excluding restricted stock. In estimating fair value, management is required to make certain assumptions and estimates such as the expected life of units, volatility of the Company's future share price, risk-free rates, future dividend yields and estimated forfeitures at the initial grant date. Changes in assumptions used to estimate fair value could result in materially different results.

 Item 7A. Qualitative And Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 We are a smaller reporting company as defined in Regulation S-K of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are not required to provide the information under this item.

 Item 8. Financial Statements.

 Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
 There are no reportable events under this item for the year ended January 31, 2025.

 Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
 EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 Disclosure controls and procedures consist of our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that necessary information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Due to the inherent limitations of control systems, not all misstatements may be detected. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, a control or procedure can be circumvented by individual acts of even one person, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. Controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the above objectives are met.
 Our management, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial and accounting officer), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of January 31, 2025, at the reasonable assurance level, in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 MANAGEMENT'S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
 Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.
 Our internal control over financial reporting is a set of processes designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
 • Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;
 • Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the Board of Directors of the Company; and
 • Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk that a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or because of declines in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
 Our management, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. In making this assessment, they used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013).
 Based on the evaluation under such framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of January 31, 2025, due to the existence of material weaknesses.

 A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Our management identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting relating to (1) inadequate segregation of duties between the IT and accounting functions, (2) not maintaining adequate support for authorization and approval of certain transactions recorded in the Company's IT systems, including those obtained through electronic data interface, and (3) inadequate documentation of review procedures, including those associated with level of precision, investigating and resolving outliers, and evaluating the completeness and accuracy of information produced by the entity, including those obtained from certain service organizations which require that complementary user entity controls are suitably designed and operating effectively.
 None of the identified material weaknesses resulted in a material misstatement to our annual or interim consolidated financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2025. However, because the underlying deficiencies could have resulted in a material misstatement, management determined that each constitutes a material weakness.
 Our independent registered public accounting firm, UHY LLP, has issued an attestation report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2025. UHY LLP's report appears on page 28 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 Implemented and Planned Remediation Measures
 We are committed to establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and promptly remediating the identified material weaknesses. Management continues to work to strengthen supporting procedures and documentation to ensure a strong control environment.
 To address the identified material weaknesses, remediation actions are in the process of being implemented during the fiscal year ending January 31, 2026, including the following:
 • review and enhancement of the structure of our organization, including our finance and information technology functions, to clarify roles and responsibilities and ensure appropriate segregation of duties;
 • enhance the documentary support for authorization and approval of transactions recorded in the Company's IT systems, including those obtained through electronic data interface;
 • continued evaluation of existing personnel and their roles and responsibilities, with appropriate realignments and supplemental internal and external personnel and resources focused on ensuring compliance with our policies and procedures and reliable evidence and documentation of the same.
 Management believes the actions described above will strengthen our internal control over financial reporting and will be sufficient to remediate the identified material weaknesses as soon as January 31, 2026. However, there can be no guarantee that such remediation efforts will be sufficient by the end of the current fiscal year or at all. Management will continue to monitor the effectiveness of the Company's procedures and internal control over financial reporting and intends to make further changes as may be necessary or appropriate to reasonably ensure their effectiveness.
 CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
 Except as described above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 To the Board of Directors and
 Stockholders of Mama's Creations, Inc.
 Adverse Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 We have audited Mama's Creations, Inc.'s (the Company's) internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, because of the effect of the material weaknesses described in the following paragraph on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, the Company has not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
 A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management identified material weaknesses due to the Company's lack of sufficient accounting and finance personnel to support and provide appropriate oversight and accountability over the performance of controls. This resulted in material weaknesses noted across significant business processes that related to (1) inadequate segregation of duties between the IT and accounting functions, (2) not maintaining adequate support for authorization and approval of certain transactions recorded in the Company's IT systems, including those obtained through electronic data interface, and (3) inadequate documentation of review procedures, including those associated with level of precision, investigating and resolving outliers, and evaluating the completeness and accuracy of information produced by the entity, including those obtained from certain service organizations which require that complementary user entity controls are suitably designed and operating effectively.
 These material weaknesses were considered in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the fiscal year 2025 consolidated financial statements, and this report does not affect our report dated April 8, 2025, on those financial statements.
 We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows of the Company, and our report dated April 8, 2025, expressed an unqualified opinion.
 Basis for Opinion
 The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Item 9A, Controls and Procedures: Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
 We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and

 procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 To the Board of Directors and
 Stockholders of Mama's Creations, Inc.
 Opinion of the Financial Statements
 We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Mama's Creations, Inc. (the Company) as of January 31, 2025, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January 31, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2025 based on criteria established in Internal Control–Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated April 8, 2025 expressed an adverse opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting because of the existence of material weaknesses.
 We also have audited the adjustments to the fiscal 2024 and 2023 consolidated financial statements of the Company to retrospectively apply the change in accounting related to the Company's adoption of ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) – Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures as described in Notes 2 and 13. In our opinion, such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied. We were not engaged to audit, review or apply any procedures to the fiscal 2024 and 2023 consolidated financial statements of the Company other than with respect to the adjustments and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on the fiscal 2024 and 2023 consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.
 Basis for Opinion
 These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
 We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 Critical Audit Matters
 The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
 Variable Consideration Related to Customer Incentives
 As described in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company recognizes revenue net of estimates for variable consideration related to customer incentives in the form of discounts, slotting fees, coupons, rebates, in-store display incentives and volume-based incentives. The estimated portion of variable consideration at period-end amounted to $0.6

 million as of January 31, 2025. Customer incentives are estimated at period-end based on historical experience and assumptions of future promotional activity.
 We identified the auditing of variable consideration related to customer incentives as a critical audit matter. Specifically, variable consideration is estimated based on historical experience and assumptions of future promotional activity. Auditing these estimates involved especially challenging and subjective auditor judgment due to the level of uncertainty involved in management's assumptions.
 The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
 • Evaluating the appropriateness of the Company's estimation methodology and testing significant inputs and assumptions used in the calculations;
 • Developing an expectation for estimated variable consideration and the allowance for customer incentives using sales data, historical activity of customer incentives as a percentage of revenue, and activity subsequent to period end; and
 • Inquiring and obtaining information from management and sales department representatives to assess historical activity and assumptions of future promotional activity.

 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 To the Board of Directors and
 Stockholders of Mama's Creations, Inc.
 Opinion on the Financial Statements
 We have audited, before the effects of the adjustment to retrospectively apply the change in accounting for ASU 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures described in Notes 2 and 13, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Mama's Creations, Inc. (the Company) as of January 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended January 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements, before the effects of the adjustments to retrospectively apply the change in accounting for ASU 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures described in Notes 2 and 13 (the 2024 financial statements before the effects of the adjustments discussed in Notes 2 and 13 are not presented herein), present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended January 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 We were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the adjustments to retrospectively apply the change in accounting for ASU 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures as described in Notes 2 and 13 and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance about whether such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied.

The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
 Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

("MamaMancinis"), is a marketer, manufacturer and distributor of beef and turkey meatballs with sauce, grilled, roasted and breaded chicken, sausage & peppers, and other similar meats and sauces. In addition, the Company continues to diversify its product line by introducing new products such as ready-to-serve meals, single-size pasta and rice bowls, bulk deli, and packaged refrigerated protein products. MamaMancini's products feature many all-natural meals that were submitted to the United States Department of Agriculture (the "USDA") and approved as all-natural. The USDA defines "all-natural" as a product that contains no artificial ingredients, coloring ingredients or chemical preservatives and is minimally processed.
 Our Subsidiary T&L Acquisition Corp. is a premier gourmet food manufacturer based in New York. T&L Acquisition Corp. DBA T&L Creative Salads ("T&L") and Olive Branch ("OB"), offers a full line of foods for retail food chains and club stores, delis, bagel stores, caterers and provision distributors. T&L uses high-quality meats, seafood and vegetables, prepared to meet the standards set forth by the USDA and the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). Olive Branch concentrates on selling olives, olive mixes, and savory products to large retail customers, primarily in pre-packaged containers.
 On June 28, 2022, the Company acquired a 24 % minority interest in Chef Inspirational Foods, LLC ("CIF"), a leading developer, innovator, marketer and sales company selling prepared foods, for an investment of $ 1.2 million. The investment consists of $ 500 thousand in cash and $ 700 thousand in the Company's common stock. The acquisition of the interest in CIF was accounted for under the equity method of accounting for investments up until the Company acquired the remaining interest of CIF. On June 28, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of the remaining 76 % of CIF, in accordance with the terms of the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement dated June 28, 2023 by and among the Company, Siegel Suffolk Family, LLC, and R&I Loeb Family, LLC (the "Sellers") for approximately $ 3.7 million, including approximately $ 1.0 million in cash at closing and a $ 2.7 million promissory note (the "CIF Acquisition"). The promissory note required a principal payment of $ 1.2 million in cash on the first anniversary of the closing date (which was made during the year ended January 31, 2025), and a payment of $ 1.5 million in common stock of the Company on the second anniversary of the closing date.
 The following presents the unaudited results of operations for the period June 28, 2022 (minority interest acquisition date) through January 31, 2023 and from February 1, 2023 through June 28, 2023 (CIF Acquisition date) of CIF (in thousands).

 Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 Basis of Presentation
 The Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries as of the reporting period ending dates and for the reporting periods. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts in the prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
 Use of Estimates
 The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions impact, among others, the following: allowance for credit losses, the fair value of stock-based compensation, inventory reserves, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, and estimates for unrealized returns, discounts, and other variable considerations that are netted against revenue.
 Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from our estimates.
 Risks and Uncertainties
 The Company operates in an industry that is subject to intense competition and changes in consumer demand. The Company's operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial and operational risks including the potential risk of business failure.
 The Company has experienced, and in the future expects to continue to experience, variability in sales and earnings. The factors expected to contribute to this variability include, among others, (i) the cyclical nature of the grocery industry, (ii) general economic conditions in the various local markets in which the Company competes, including a potential general downturn in the economy, and (iii) the volatility of prices pertaining to food and beverages in connection with the Company's distribution of the product. These factors, among others, make it difficult to project the Company's operating results on a consistent basis.
 Cash and Cash Equivalents
 The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an origianal maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The majority of the Company's cash and cash equivalents are held at one financial institution, which at January 31, 2025, exceeded insured amounts by approximately $ 6.2 million. The Company believes it mitigates such risk by having this cash held by a major financial institution.
 Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
 Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. The Company generally does not require collateral to support customer receivables. Estimated product returns are immaterial. Management assesses the collectability of outstanding customer invoices, and maintains an allowance resulting from the expected non-collection of customer receivables. In estimating this reserve, management considers factors such as historical collection experience, customer creditworthiness, specific customer risk, and current and expected general economic conditions. Customer balances are written off after all collection efforts are exhausted. As of January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024, the reserve for uncollectible accounts was approximately $ 93 thousand and $ 93 thousand, respectively. For the years ended January 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 the Company wrote off approximately $ 0 thousand, $ 140 thousand, and $ 0 thousand, respectively, against the allowance for credit losses established.
 Inventories
 The Company values its inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value ("NRV"). NRV is defined as estimated selling prices less costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The cost of inventory is determined on the first-in, first-out basis. The cost of finished goods inventories includes ingredients, direct labor, freight-in for ingredients, and indirect production and overhead costs. The Company monitors its inventory to identify excess or obsolete items on hand.

 The Company reviews inventory quantities on hand and records a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on selling prices, indications from customers based upon current price negotiations, and purchase orders. In addition, and as necessary, specific reserves for future known or anticipated events may be established. As of January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024, the reserve for obsolete inventory was approximately $ 95 thousand and $ 95 thousand, respectively.
 Inventories by major category are as follows (in thousands):

 Property, Plant, and Equipment
 Property, plant, and equipment are recorded at cost net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
 Asset lives for financial statement reporting of depreciation are:

 Machinery and equipment
 2 - 7 years

 Furniture and fixtures
 3 - 5 years

 Leasehold improvements
 *

 (*)Amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease or the estimated useful lives, whichever period is shorter.
 Upon sale or retirement of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.
 The Company reviews the recoverability of property, plant and equipment when circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset class may not be recoverable. Indicators of impairment could include, among other factors, significant changes in the business environment, the planned closure of a facility, or deterioration in operating cash flows. Considerable management judgment is necessary to evaluate the impact of operating changes and to estimate future cash flows. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance which do not substantially improve or extend the useful life of an asset are expensed as incurred.
 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
 Goodwill
 Goodwill is the excess of the consideration paid for a business over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill and other indefinite lived intangible assets are not amortized. Instead, these assets are reviewed at least annually for impairment. The Company has the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. However, the Company may elect to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test even if no indications of a potential impairment exist.
 When performing its quantitative annual goodwill impairment test on January 31, 2025, the Company is comparing the fair value with its carrying amount. The Company would recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value; however, the loss recognized would not exceed the total amount of goodwill. Additionally, the Company considers income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The fair value is estimated using discounted cash flow methodologies, as well as considering third-party market value indicators. The Company's use of a discounted cash flow methodology includes estimates of future revenue based upon budgets and projections. The Company also develops estimates for future levels of gross and operating profits and projected capital expenditures. The Company's methodology also includes the use of estimated discount rates based upon industry and competitor analysis as well as other factors. Calculating the fair value

 requires significant estimates and assumptions by management. Should the estimates and assumptions regarding the fair value of the reporting units prove to be incorrect, the Company may be required to record impairments to its goodwill in future periods and such impairments could be material.
 As of January 31, 2025 and 2024, there were no impairment losses recognized for goodwill.
 Other Intangibles
 Other intangibles consist of trademarks, trade names and customer relationships. Intangible asset lives for financial statement reporting of amortization are:

 Tradenames and trademarks
 3 years

 Customer relationships
 4 - 5 years

 Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 Fair value is an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
 The carrying value of the Company's short-term financial instruments, such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, approximate fair value due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these instruments.
 The interest rate on the Company's line of credit and notes payable has a variable component, which is reflective of the market for such instruments at any given date, and as such the carrying value of the debt approximates its fair value.
 Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are measured using the fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
 Level 1: observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
 Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
 Level 3: unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions.
 Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
 The Company's financial assets that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024 were as follows (in thousands):

 Research and Development
 Research and development is expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses for the years ended January 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 were approximately $ 455 thousand, $ 414 thousand, and $ 135 thousand, respectively.
 Revenue Recognition
 The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).

 The Company's sales are primarily generated from the sale of finished products to customers. Revenue is recognized when the performance obligation is satisfied, and the promised goods have been transferred. Control transfers when the product is shipped or delivered based upon applicable shipping terms. For each contract, the Company considers the transfer of product to be the performance obligation. Although some payment terms may be extended, generally the Company's payment terms are approximately 15 - 30 days. Accordingly, there are no significant financing components to consider when determining the transaction price. The Company elected to treat shipping and handling activities as fulfillment activities, and the related costs are recorded as selling expenses in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
 The Company promotes its products with trade incentives and promotions. These programs include discounts, slotting fees, coupons, rebates, in-store display incentives and volume-based incentives. The trade incentives and promotions are recorded as a reduction to the transaction price based on amounts estimated as being due to customers at the end of the period. The Company derives these estimates based on historical experience. The Company does not receive a distinct service in relation to the trade incentives and promotions. The Company's contracts are all short-term in nature; therefore, there are no unsatisfied performance obligations requiring disclosure as of January 31, 2025.
 Reductions in the transaction price attributable to items such as slotting fees, sales discounts, and allowances are accounted for as a direct reduction of revenues as follows (in thousands):

 Cost of Sales
 Cost of sales represents costs related to the production and manufacturing of the Company's products.
 Advertising
 Costs incurred for producing and communicating advertising for the Company are charged to operations as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. Producing and communicating advertising expenses for the years ended January 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 were approximately $ 2.2 million, $ 1.2 million, and $ 693 thousand, respectively.
 Stock-Based Compensation
 The Company provides compensation benefits in the form of performance stock awards, restricted stock units, stock options, and warrants. The cost of the stock-based compensation is recorded at fair value on the date of grant and expensed in our Consolidated Statement of Operations over the requisite service period.

 Performance stock awards ("PSUs") are granted to certain executive officers. Each performance stock award entitles the participant to earn shares of common stock upon the attainment of certain market conditions and certain performance goals over the applicable performance period. The recognition of the compensation expense for the performance stock awards is based upon the probable outcome of the market condition and performance conditions based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. To determine the value of PSUs with market conditions for stock-based compensation purposes, the Company used the Monte Carlo simulation valuation model. For each modeling scenario, the PSUs' payoff is calculated based on the contractual terms, whereas the fair value of the PSUs is calculated as the average present value of all modeled payoffs. The determination of the grant date fair value of PSUs issued is affected by a number of variables and subjective assumptions, including (i) the fair value of the Company's common stock of $ 1.17 and $ 1.40 at the grant dates, (ii) the expected common stock price volatility over the expected life of the awards of 85.7 % and 87.0 %, (iii) the term of the awards of 5 years and 5 years, (iv) risk-free interest rate of 3.7 % and 3.4 %, (v) there are no expected dividends. Forfeitures are recognized when they occur. There were no performance stock units that vested in the year ended January 31, 2025. The Company's performance against the defined goals is re-evaluated on a quarterly basis throughout the performance period and the recognition of the compensation expense is adjusted for subsequent changes in the estimated or actual outcome.
 The Company values stock options and warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Grants of stock-based payment awards issued to non-employees for services rendered have been recorded at the fair value of the stock-based payment, which is the more readily determinable value. The grants are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods, which is generally the vesting periods. If an award is granted, but vesting does not occur, any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed in the period related to the termination of service.
 The Company values Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") based on the closing price of the Company's common stock on the date the grant is issued and recognizes the expense related to this value on a straight-line basis over the vesting term.
 For the year ended January 31, 2024, the Company issued 19,960 shares of the Company's common stock, valued at approximately $ 50 thousand, to certain employees as compensation.
 For the years ended January 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, when computing fair value of stock options issued, the Company has considered the following variables:

 Risk-free interest rate
 3.47 %
 N/A
 2.8
 %

 Expected life of grants
 6 years
 N/A
 6.5 years

 Expected volatility of underlying stock
 75.5 %
 N/A
 85.7
 %

 Dividends
 %
 N/A
 %

 The expected option term is computed using the "simplified method" for "plain vanilla" options as permitted under the provisions of ASC 718-10-S99. The Company uses the simplified method to calculate expected term of share options and similar instruments.
 The expected stock price volatility for the Company's stock options was estimated using the historical volatilities of the Company's common stock and if deemed necessary, adjusted for any forward-looking adjustments. Risk-free interest rates were obtained from U.S. Treasury rates for the applicable periods.
 Earnings Per Share
 Basic net income or loss per share attributable to common stockholders excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders during the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income or loss per share reflects potential dilution and is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, which is increased by the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued. However, if the effect of any additional securities is anti-dilutive (i.e., resulting in a higher net income per share or lower net loss per share), they are excluded from the dilutive net income computation. The dilutive effect of stock options, warrants, and restricted stock is calculated using the treasury stock method, and the dilutive effect of the Series B Preferred stock is calculated using the if-converted method.

 The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in computing basic and diluted net income attributable to common stockholders per common share (in thousands, except per share amounts).

 Income Taxes
 Income taxes are provided in accordance with ASC 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes." A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the period of deferred tax assets and liabilities.
 Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. As of January 31, 2025 and January 31, 2024, the Company recognized a deferred tax asset of approximately $ 258 thousand and $ 503 thousand, respectively, which is included in long-term assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company regularly evaluates the need for a valuation allowance related to the deferred tax asset.
 Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, "Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity" ("ASU 2020-06"), which simplifies an issuer's accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models that require separate accounting for embedded conversion features. ASU 2020-06 also simplifies the settlement assessment that entities are required to perform to determine whether a contract qualifies for equity classification and makes targeted improvements to the disclosures for convertible instruments and earnings-per-share (EPS) guidance. Entities can elect to adopt the new guidance through either a modified retrospective method of

 transition or a fully retrospective method of transition. The Company adopted this guidance effective February 1, 2024. Adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-02, "Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures" (Topic 323): Accounting for Investment Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method." The amendments in this update permit reporting entities to elect to account for their tax equity investments, regardless of the tax credit program from which the income tax credits are received, using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. The Company adopted this guidance effective February 1, 2024. Adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-06, "Disclosure Improvements." The new guidance clarifies or improves disclosure and presentation requirements on a variety of topics in the codification. The amendments will align the requirements in the FASB Accounting Standard Codification with the SEC's regulations. The amendments are effective prospectively on the date each individual amendment is effectively removed from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, which is not expected to be material.
 In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures." The new guidance is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendment is effective retrospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Adoption of this standard led to enhanced segment reporting disclosures but did not impact the Company's results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025. See Note 13, Segment Information in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements for further detail.
 In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, "Income Taxes" (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures." The new guidance is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in the ASU address investor requests for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The amendment is effective retrospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, on a prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU No. 2023-09 will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
 In March 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Final Rule No. 33-11275, "The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors." If such rule remains in effect, the rule will require registrants to provide climate-related disclosures in their annual reports, including, but not limited to, material Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions (for large accelerated filers and accelerated filers); governance and oversight of material climate-related risks; the material impact of climate risks on the registrant's strategy, business model, and outlook; risk management processes for material climate-related risks; and material climate targets and goals. Based on our current accelerated filer status, certain elements of the rule would be effective for our fiscal year ending January 31, 2027, with the remaining disclosure requirements effective for our fiscal years ending January 31, 2028 and 2029. In April 2024, the SEC issued an order staying implementation of such rule, pending the resolution of certain challenges. The outcome of ongoing litigation is currently unknown. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of such rule on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
 In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures" (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses." Additionally, in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-01 to clarify the effective date of ASU No. 2024-03. The new guidance is intended to improve disclosures about a public business entity's expenses by enhancing specified information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period so that investors can better understand an entity's overall performance, including its cost structure, and assess potential future cash flows. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, on a retrospective or prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
 In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-04, "Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options" (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments." The new guidance clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion

 or extinguishment of convertible debt. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2025 and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that the adoption ASU No. 2024-04 will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

If the Senior Funded Debt/EBITDA ratio is: (i) greater than 2.25, 3.50 percentage point(s) above the applicable Variable Loan Rate; (ii) greater than 1.50 but less than or equal to 2.25, 3.0 percentage points of the applicable Variable Loan Rate; or (iii) less than or equal to 1.50, 2.5 percentage points above the applicable Variable Loan Rate; provided that in all events the rate shall not be less than the recited percentage point margin over 0 %.

 Note 11 – Leases
 The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. Right of Use ("ROU") assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term.
 The Company's leases consist of office space, manufacturing space and machinery and equipment. The Company utilized a portfolio approach in determining the discount rate. The portfolio approach takes into consideration the range of the term, the range of the lease payments, the category of the underlying asset and the Company's estimated incremental borrowing rate, which is derived from information available at the lease commencement date, in determining the present value of lease

 payments. The Company also considered its recent debt issuances as well as publicly available data for instruments with similar characteristics when calculating the incremental borrowing rates.
 The lease term includes options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Future obligations relating to the exercise of renewal options are included in the measurement if, based on the judgment of management, the renewal option is reasonably certain to be exercised. Factors in determining whether an option is reasonably certain of exercise include, but are not limited to, the value of leasehold improvements, the value of the renewal rate compared to market rates, and the presence of factors that would cause a significant economic penalty to the Company if the option is not exercised.
 Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet, per the election of the practical expedient under ASC 842 "Leases."
 The Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company recognizes variable lease payments in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate are initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date, otherwise variable lease payments are recognized in the period incurred.
 During the year ended January 31, 2025, the Company entered into the Fourth Amendment of Lease for its offices at 355 Murray Hill Parkway, East Rutherford, NJ. The amended lease has a termination date of January 31, 2030. The amended lease has monthly rent of approximately $ 10 thousand to $ 12 thousand. In accounting for the lease, the Company wrote off its existing right of use asset and lease liability of approximately $ 124 thousand and recognized a right of use asset of approximately $ 631 thousand.
 During the year ended January 31, 2025, the Company amended and subsequently extended its lease for 25 Branca Road, East Rutherford, NJ twice. The first amended lease had a termination date of August 31, 2024. With the initial amendment of the lease, the Company wrote off approximately $ 897 thousand of the existing right of use asset and lease liability. On August 21, 2024, the Company amended its lease at 25 Branca Road. The amended lease has monthly rent of approximately $ 36 thousand until February 28, 2026, with a renewal option to extend the lease until August 31, 2029. The monthly rent during the renewal option ranges from approximately $ 38 thousand to approximately $ 42 thousand. As a result of this lease the Company recognized a right of use asset and a lease liability of approximately $ 615 thousand. In addition, on December 26, 2024, the Company amended the lease again with an effective date of February 1, 2025. This amended lease expanded the space available to the Company, has a monthly rent from approximately $ 73 thousand to approximately $ 84 thousand from February 1, 2025 to January 31, 2030, and required an initial direct payment of approximately $ 200 thousand. On the effective date of the lease, the Company will recognize a right of use asset and lease liability of approximately $ 4.2 million.

 The Company had U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs) of approximately $ 0.0 million and $ 0.0 million at January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, available to offset taxable income through 2034. The Company also has state NOLs of approximately $ 8.0 million and $ 8.8 million at January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, available to offset future taxable income through 2036.
 In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future generation of taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. There was no valuation allowance on the Company's deferred tax assets as of January 31, 2025 and 2024.
 The Company evaluated the provisions of ASC 740 related to the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements. ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, present, and disclose uncertain positions that the Company has taken or expects to take in its tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. Differences between tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and the net benefit recognized and measured pursuant to the interpretation are referred to as "unrecognized benefits." A liability is recognized (or amount of net operating loss carry-forward or amount of tax refundable is reduced) for unrecognized tax benefit because it represents an enterprise's potential future obligation to the taxing authority for a tax position that was not recognized as a result of applying the provisions of ASC 740.
 If applicable, interest costs related to the unrecognized tax benefits are required to be calculated and would be classified as "Other expenses – Interest" in the consolidated statements of operations. Penalties would be recognized as a component of "Selling, general and administrative expenses."

 No interest or penalties on unpaid taxes were recorded during the years ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. As of January 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, no liability for unrecognized tax benefits was required to be reported. The Company does not expect any significant changes in its unrecognized tax benefits in the next year.
 We are subject to taxation in the United States and various states. As of January 31, 2025, tax years for January 31, 2022, 2023, and 2024 are subject to examination by the tax authorities.
