Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Description of Business

 

Eastside Distilling (the “Company” or “Eastside Distilling”) was incorporated under the laws of Nevada in 2004 under the name of Eurocan Holdings, Ltd. In December 2014, the Company changed its corporate name to Eastside Distilling, Inc. to reflect the acquisition of Eastside Distilling, LLC. The Company manufactures, acquires, blends, bottles, imports, markets and sells a wide variety of alcoholic beverages under recognized brands. The Company currently employs 49 people in the United States.

 

The Company operates a beverage packaging and services business that operates in the beverage segment. During 2022, the Company made substantial investments to expand its product offerings to include digital can printing in the Pacific Northwest (together Craft Canning + Printing, “Craft C+P”). Craft C+P operates mobile filling lines and offers co-packing services with end-to-end production capabilities in Portland, Oregon.

 

The Company’s spirits’ brands span several alcoholic beverage categories, including whiskey, vodka, rum, and tequila. The Company sells products on a wholesale basis to distributors in open states and through brokers in control states.

 

2. Liquidity

 

The Company’s primary capital requirements are for cash used in operating activities and the repayment of debt. Funds for the Company’s cash and liquidity needs have historically not been generated from operations but rather from loans as well as from convertible debt and equity financing. The Company has been dependent on raising capital from debt and equity financing to meet the Company’s operating needs.

 

The Company had an accumulated deficit of $85.6 million as of June 30, 2024, having incurred a net loss of $2.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

 

The Company reduced debt in 2023 through a debt for preferred equity swap. However, the Company’s ability to meet its ongoing operating cash needs over the next 12 months depends on growing revenues and gross margins, and generating positive operating cash flow primarily through increased sales, improved profit growth, and controlling expenses. In addition, the Company has been negotiating with creditors to reduce the interest burden and improve cash flow. If the Company is unable to reach an agreement with creditors or obtain additional financing, or additional financing is not available on acceptable terms, the Company may seek to sell assets, reduce operating expenses, reduce or eliminate marketing initiatives, and take other measures that could impair its ability to be successful.

 

Although the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 were prepared under the assumption that it would continue operations as a going concern, the report of its independent registered public accounting firm that accompanied the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 contained a going concern explanatory paragraph in which such firm expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, based on the financial statements at that time. If the Company cannot continue as a going concern, its stockholders would likely lose most or all of their investment in it.

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for Eastside Distilling, Inc. and subsidiaries were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or eliminated as permitted under the SEC’s rules and regulations. In management’s opinion, the unaudited consolidated financial statements include all material adjustments, all of which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2024, its operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for an entire fiscal year. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Eastside Distilling, Inc.’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Craft Canning + Bottling, LLC (doing business as Craft Canning + Printing) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Galactic Unicorn Packaging, LLC (the Company’s acquired fixed co-packing assets). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

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

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Net sales include product sales, less excise taxes and customer programs and incentives. The Company recognizes revenue by applying the following steps in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

 

The Company recognizes spirits sales when merchandise is shipped from a warehouse directly to wholesale customers (except in the case of a consignment sale). For consignment sales, which include sales to the Oregon Liquor Control Commission, the Company recognizes sales upon the consignee’s shipment to the customer. Postage and handling charges billed to customers are also recognized as sales upon shipment of the related merchandise. Shipping terms are generally FOB shipping point, and title passes to the customer at the time and place of shipment or purchase by customers at a retail location. For consignment sales, title passes to the consignee concurrent with the consignee’s shipment to the customer. The customer has no cancellation privileges after shipment or upon purchase at retail locations, other than customary rights of return.

 

In the Craft C+P segment, sales are recognized when printed cans are delivered or when mobile filling services are performed.

 

Customer Programs

 

Customer programs, which include customer promotional discount programs, are a common practice in the alcoholic beverage industry. The Company reimburses wholesalers for an agreed amount to promote sales of products and to maintain competitive pricing. Amounts paid in connection with customer programs are recorded as reductions to net sales in accordance with ASC 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Amounts recorded in customer programs totaled $0.1 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Excise Taxes

 

The Company is responsible for compliance with the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (“TTB”) regulations, which includes making timely and accurate excise tax payments. The Company is subject to periodic compliance audits by the TTB. Individual states also impose excise taxes on alcoholic beverages in varying amounts. The Company calculates its excise tax expense based upon units produced and on its understanding of the applicable excise tax laws. Excise taxes totaled $0.1 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

 

Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales consists of all direct costs related to both spirits and canning for service, labor, overhead, packaging, and in-bound freight charges. Raw materials account for the largest portion of the cost of sales, followed by packaging and production costs.

 

Sales and Marketing Expenses

 

Sales and marketing expenses consist of sponsorships, agency fees, digital media, salary and benefit expenses, travel and entertainment expenses. Sales and marketing costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses totaled $44,482 and $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses consist of salary and benefit expenses, travel and entertainment expenses for executive and administrative staff, rent and utilities, professional fees, insurance, and amortization and depreciation expense. General and administrative costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes as compensation expense all stock-based awards issued to employees. The compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the related stock-based awards and is recognized over the service period of stock-based awards, which is generally the same as the vesting period. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which estimates the fair value of each award on the date of grant based on a variety of assumptions including expected stock price volatility, expected terms of the awards, risk-free interest rate, and dividend rates, if applicable. Stock-based awards issued to nonemployees are recorded at fair value on the measurement date and are subject to periodic market adjustments at the end of each reporting period and as the underlying stock-based awards vest.

 

Concentrations

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables. As of June 30, 2024, one customer represented 10% of trade receivables. As of December 31, 2023, one distributor represented 1% of trade receivables. Sales to one distributor accounted for 16% of consolidated sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Sales to one distributor and one wholesale customer accounted for 27% of consolidated sales for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

GAAP defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements. GAAP permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and contains financial statement presentation and disclosure requirements for assets and liabilities for which the fair value option is elected. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, management has not elected to report any of the Company’s assets or liabilities at fair value under the “fair value option” provided by GAAP.

The hierarchy of fair value valuation techniques under GAAP provides for three levels: Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3, if applicable, generally would require significant management judgment. The three levels for categorizing assets and liabilities under GAAP’s fair value measurement requirements are as follows:

 

  Level 1: Fair value of the asset or liability is determined using cash or unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
     
   Level 2: Fair value of the asset or liability is determined using inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the applicable asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar (as opposed to identical) assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
     
  Level 3: Fair value of the asset or liability is determined using unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement and reflect management’s own assumptions regarding the applicable asset or liability.

 

None of the Company’s assets or liabilities were measured at fair value as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023. However, GAAP requires the disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments that are not measured at fair value. Financial instruments consist principally of trade receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, notes payable, and the secured credit facilities. The estimated fair value of trade receivables, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying value due to the short period of time to their maturities. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the principal amounts of the Company’s notes approximate fair value.

 

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

 

Certain assets and liabilities acquired in a business acquisition are valued at fair value at the date of acquisition due to having indefinite lives. The Company, on an annual basis, tests the indefinite life assets for impairment. If an indefinite life asset is found to be impaired, then the Company will estimate its useful life and amortize the asset over the remainder of its useful life.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories primarily consist of bulk and bottled liquor and raw materials and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using an average costing methodology, which approximates cost under the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. A portion of the Company’s finished goods inventory is held by certain independent distributors on consignment until it is sold to a third party. The Company regularly monitors inventory quantities on hand and records write-downs for excess and obsolete inventories based primarily on the Company’s estimated forecast of product demand and production requirements. Such write-downs establish a new cost basis of accounting for the related inventory.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from three to 12.5 years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the life of the lease or the useful lives of the assets, whichever is shorter. The cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization of property and equipment sold or otherwise disposed of are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reported as current period income or expense. The costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

 

Intangible Assets / Goodwill

 

The Company accounts for certain intangible assets at cost. Management reviews these intangible assets for probable impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If there is an indication of impairment, management would prepare an estimate of future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these estimated cash flows were less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss would be recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value.

Long-lived Assets

 

The Company accounts for long-lived assets, including certain intangible assets, at amortized cost. Management reviews long-lived assets for probable impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If there is an indication of impairment, management would prepare an estimate of future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these estimated cash flows were less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss would be recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value.

 

Comprehensive Income

 

The Company did not have any other comprehensive income items in either the six months ended June 30, 2024 or 2023.

 

Accounts Receivable Factoring Program

 

The Company had two accounts receivable factoring programs: one for its spirits customers (the “spirits program”) that had a zero balance as of June 30, 2024 and another for its co-packing customers (the “co-packing program”) that terminated in August 2023. Under the programs, the Company had the option to sell certain customer account receivables in advance of payment for 75% (spirits program) or 85% (co-packing program) of the amount due. When the customer remits payment, the Company receives the remaining balance. For the spirits program, interest is charged on the advanced 75% payment at a rate of 2.4% for the first 30 days plus 1.44% for each additional ten-day period. For the co-packing program, interest was charged against the greater of $0.5 million or the total funds advanced at a rate of 1% plus the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal. Under the terms of both agreements, the factoring provider had full recourse against the Company should the customer fail to pay the invoice. In accordance with ASC Topic 860 – Transfers and Servicing, the Company has concluded that these agreements have met all three conditions identified in ASC Topic 860-10-40-5 (a) – (c) and have accounted for this activity as a sale. Given the quality of the factored accounts, the Company had not recognized a recourse obligation. In certain limited instances, the Company may provide collection services on the factored accounts but did not receive any fees for acting as the collection agent, and as such, the Company had not recognized a service obligation asset or liability. The Company factored $0.7 million of invoices and incurred $20,821 in fees associated with the factoring programs during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”).

The updated guidance is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning January 1, 2024, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning January 1, 2025. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 seeks to improve transparency in income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures. The updated guidance is effective for the Company on January 1, 2025. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-09 to have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

10. Leases

 

The Company has various lease agreements in place for facilities, equipment and vehicles. Terms of these leases include, in some instances, scheduled rent increases, renewals, purchase options and maintenance costs, and vary by lease. These lease obligations expire at various dates through 2027. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. As the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at commencement to determine the present value of the lease payments. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less (“short-term leases”) are not recorded on the balance sheet and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As of June 30, 2024, the amount of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were $2.1 million and $2.3 million, respectively. Aggregate lease expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $0.4 million, consisting of $0.5 million in operating lease expense for lease liabilities and $0.1 million in short-term lease cost.

Note Purchase Agreement

 

On October 7, 2022, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement dated as of October 6, 2022 with Aegis Security Insurance Company (“Aegis”). Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, Aegis purchased from the Company a secured promissory note in the principal amount of $4.5 million (the “Aegis Note”). Aegis paid for the Aegis Note by paying $3.3 million to TQLA to fully satisfy a secured line of credit promissory note that the Company issued to TQLA on March 21, 2022; and the remaining $1.2 million was paid in cash to the Company. The Aegis Note bears interest at 9.25% per annum, payable every three months. The principal amount of the Aegis Note will be payable on March 31, 2025. The Company pledged substantially all of its assets to secure its obligations to Aegis under the Aegis Note.

 

On September 29, 2023, the Company entered into a Debt Satisfaction Agreement with Aegis and other creditors, pursuant to which the Aegis Note was amended and restated. See: Note 15, Stockholders Equity – Debt Satisfaction Agreement. Principal and interest of $1.9 million were exchanged for equity issued to a special purpose vehicle, The B.A.D. Company, LLC (the SPV), in which Aegis holds a 29% interest. As of June 30, 2024, the principal balance of the Aegis Note was $2.6 million and interest expense accrued was $0.1 million.

 

6% Secured Convertible Promissory Notes

 

On April 19, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) with accredited investors (“Subscribers”) for their purchase of up to $3.3 million of principal amount of 6% secured convertible promissory notes of the Company (“Note” or “Notes”), which notes are convertible into shares (“Conversion Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Notes with an initial conversion price of $44.00. In connection with the purchase of such Notes, each Subscriber received a warrant (“Existing Warrant”), to purchase a number of shares of common stock (“Warrant Shares”) equal to 60% of the principal amount of any Note issued to such Subscriber divided by the conversion price of the Note issued to such Subscriber, at an exercise price equal to $52.00. In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Security Agreement under which it granted the Subscribers a security interest in certain assets of the Company (the “Security Agreement”) and a Registration Rights Agreement under which the Company agreed to register for resale the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares. Concurrently therewith, the Company and the investors closed $3.3 million of the private offering.

Roth Capital, LLC acted as placement agent in the private offering, and the Company paid the Placement Agent a cash fee of five percent (5%) of the gross proceeds therefrom. The Company received $3.1 million in net proceeds from the closing, after deducting the fee payable to the Placement Agent and the legal fees of the Subscribers in connection with the transaction. The Company used the proceeds to repay prior outstanding notes payable and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

Interest on the Notes accrued at a rate of 6% per annum and was payable either in cash or in shares of the Company’s common stock at the conversion price in the Note on each of the six and twelve month anniversaries of the issuance date and on the maturity date of October 18, 2022.

 

All amounts due under the Notes are convertible at any time after the issuance date, in whole or in part (subject to rounding for fractional shares), at the option of the holders into the Company’s common stock at a fixed conversion price, which is subject to adjustment as summarized below. The Notes were initially convertible into the Company’s common stock at an initial fixed conversion price of $44.00 per share. This conversion price is subject to adjustment for stock splits, combinations, or similar events, among other adjustments. On April 1, 2022, the Company and the holders agreed to a reduction of the conversion price of the 6% secured convertible promissory notes to $26.00 per share in connection with the Company’s issuance of a common stock purchase warrant to TQLA covering its loan amount of $3.5 million with a common stock value of $24.00 per share.

 

The Notes contain customary triggering events including but not limited to: (i) failure to make payments when due under the Notes; and (ii) bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company. If a triggering event occurs, each holder may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Notes (including all accrued and unpaid interest thereon), in cash.

 

The Notes are secured by a subordinated security interest in the Company’s assets pursuant to the terms of a Security Agreement entered into between the Company and the Subscribers.

 

On October 13, 2022, the Company entered into an Amendment Agreement with the holders of the 6% Secured Convertible Promissory Notes. The Amendment Agreement changed the Maturity Date of the Notes from October 18, 2022 to November 18, 2022. In consideration of the extension, the Company issued 4,808 shares of its common stock to each of the Subscribers.

 

On September 29, 2023, the Company entered into a Debt Satisfaction Agreement with the Subscribers and other creditors, pursuant to which the Maturity Date of the Notes was extended from November 18, 2022 to March 31, 2025 and interest accrues at 9% per annum. See: Note 15, Stockholders Equity – Debt Satisfaction Agreement. Principal and interest on the Notes of $3.3 million was exchanged for equity issued to the SPV, in which the Subscribers held a 50% ownership interest, and the Notes were then amended and restated. As of June 30, 2024, the principal balance was $0.4 million and interest expense accrued was $27,451.

 

2024 Secured Notes

 

On May 15, 2024, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement with the SPV, Aegis, Bigger Capital Fund, LP (“Bigger”), District 2 Capital Fund, LP (“District 2”), and LDI Investments, LLC (“LDI”).

 

Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, Bigger, District 2 and LDI purchased from the Company for $1.1 million cash promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $1.1 million (the “2024 Secured Notes”). The 2024 Secured Notes may be satisfied by payment of 110% of principal on or before November 29, 2024, by payment of 130% of principal on or before March 30, 2025 or by payment of 140% of principal on March 31, 2025.

With each 2024 Secured Note, the Company issued Warrants to purchase a share of the Company’s common stock for $5.00 exercisable for five years after December 2, 2024 if on November 29, 2024 the 2024 Secured Note issued to the Warrant-holder remains unsatisfied. LDI received a Warrant to purchase 598,021 shares and each of Bigger and District 2 received a Warrant to purchase 299,011 shares.

 

The Loan Agreement provides that if the 2024 Secured Notes have not been satisfied by November 29, 2024, then until March 31, 2025 each of the Subscribers will have the right to purchase a “Kicker Note” in the amount of $0.5 million for LDI or $0.3 million for each of Bigger and District 2 by surrendering debt or equity instruments specified in the Loan Agreement. The Kicker Notes will not bear interest, and may be satisfied by payment of their principal amounts on or before March 31, 2026.

 

The Company’s obligations under the 2024 Secured Notes and the Kicker Notes (collectively, the “2024 Notes”) are secured by the Company’s pledge of its assets, subject to certain specified exceptions. In connection with the Loan Agreement, the Company, Aegis, Bigger and District 2 amended and restated the Intercreditor Agreement they had executed on September 29, 2023. In the Amended and Restated Intercreditor Agreement, Aegis, Bigger and District 2 subordinate their liens on any barrels of spirits owned by the Company, and the parties agree that the net proceeds of any sale of barrels will be paid to the Subscribers in satisfaction of the 2024 Notes. Commencing when all barrels have been sold, the lien of the Subscribers under the 2024 Notes will become pari passu with the senior lien on the remaining collateral.

 

13. Commitments and Contingencies

 

Legal Matters

 

On March 1, 2023, Sandstrom Partners, Inc. filed a complaint in the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for the County of Multnomah alleging the Company failed to pay for its services pursuant to an agreement entered into on October 16, 2019. The complaint seeks damages of $285,000, plus a judicial declaration, due to the Company’s failure to pay for the services. The Company believes that it paid for services rendered and, if any balance is outstanding, it is minimal. The Company intends to defend the case vigorously.

 

On December 15, 2020, Grover Wickersham filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Oregon against the Company. Mr. Wickersham, the former CEO and Chairman of the Board of the Company, has asserted causes of action for fraud in the inducement, breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, defamation, interference with economic advantage, elder financial abuse, and dissemination of false and misleading proxy materials. During June 2024, this case was settled.

 

The Company is not currently subject to any other material legal proceedings; however, it could be subject to legal proceedings and claims from time to time in the ordinary course of its business, or legal proceedings it considered immaterial may in the future become material. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can, among other things, be time consuming and expensive to resolve, and can divert management resources.

 

14. Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

 

Basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without considering any dilutive items. Potentially dilutive securities consist of the incremental common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options, convertible notes and warrants. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. There were no anti-dilutive common shares included in the calculation of income (loss) per common share as of June 30, 2024 and 2023.

15. Stockholders’ Equity

 

Debt Satisfaction Agreement

 

On September 29, 2023, the Company entered into a Debt Satisfaction Agreement (the “DSA”) with the SPV, Aegis, Bigger, District 2, LDI and TQLA, LLC. The SPV is a special purpose vehicle whose equity is shared 50% by Bigger and District 2 and 50% by Aegis and LDI.

 

Pursuant to the DSA, on September 29, 2023, the Company issued to the SPV 296,722 shares of the Company’s common stock and 200,000 shares of its Series C Preferred Stock, and executed a Registration Rights Agreement providing that the Company will register for public resale that common stock and the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock. In exchange for that equity, the Company’s debts to the members of the SPV were reduced by a total of $6.5 million and the Company recognized a loss on the conversion of $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. Specifically, the debt was reduced as follows:

 

  the principal balance of the Secured Promissory Note issued by the Company to Aegis on October 6, 2022 was reduced by $1.9 million;
     
   the Company’s debt to LDI of $1.4 million arising from advances made by LDI to the Company during the past 10 months was eliminated;
     
   the aggregate principal balance of the Secured Convertible Promissory Notes issued by the Company to Bigger in April and May of 2021 was reduced by $1.6 million; and
     
   the aggregate principal balance of the Secured Convertible Promissory Notes issued by the Company to District 2 in April and May of 2021 was reduced by $1.6 million.

 

Further pursuant to the DSA:

 

  the maturity date of the secured debt listed above as well as unsecured notes issued by the Company and held by Bigger and District 2 in the aggregate amount of $7.4 million was deferred to March 31, 2025 and the interest rate on all such debt was increased to 8% per annum;
     
  the Company, Aegis, Bigger and District 2 entered into an Intercreditor Agreement, pursuant to which the remaining secured debt obligations of the Company to Aegis, Bigger and District 2 were made pari passu;
     
  the Common Stock Purchase Warrant issued by the Company to TQLA LLC on March 21, 2022, which permits TQLA LLC to purchase up to 145,834 shares of the Company’s common stock, was amended to prevent any exercise of the Warrant that would result in the portion of the cumulative voting power in the Company that the holder and its affiliates may own after the conversion to 9.99%. The Beneficial Ownership Limitation may be increased to 19.99% by the holder upon 61 days advance notice to the Company.
     
  Upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company, or upon the effective date of a consolidation, merger or statutory share exchange in which the Company is not the surviving entity, the holder of each share of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to a distribution prior to and in preference of the holders of the common stock.
     
  In the event the Company declares a dividend payable in cash or stock to holders of any class of stock, the holder of each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive a dividend equal in amount and kind to that payable to the holder of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock into which that holder’s Series C Preferred Stock could be converted on the record date for the distribution common stock. The dividends issued on the Company s outstanding Series B Preferred Stock are excluded from this provision.

For “in-kind” dividends, holders will receive that number of shares of common stock equal to (i) the amount of the dividend payment due such stockholder divided by (ii) the volume weighted average price of the common stock for the 90 trading days immediately preceding a dividend date (“VWAP”). For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company issued dividends of 92,957 shares of common stock at a VWAP of $1.61 per share to its Series B Preferred stockholders.

A summary of all stock option activity as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2024 is presented below:

 

   # of Options   Weighted-
Average
Exercise Price
 
Outstanding as of December 31, 2023   2,120   $57.95 
           
Outstanding and Exercisable as of June 30, 2024   2,120   $57.95 

 

The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding as of June 30, 2024 was $0. As of June 30, 2024, all options had vested.

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to measure the grant-date fair value of stock options. The grant-date fair value of stock options issued to employees is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Stock-based awards issued to nonemployees are recorded at fair value on the measurement date and are subject to periodic market adjustments as the underlying stock-based awards vest.

 

To determine the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model, the calculation takes into consideration the effect of the following:

 

  Exercise price of the option
  Fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant
  Expected term of the option
  Expected volatility over the expected term of the option
  Risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option

 

The calculation includes several assumptions that require management’s judgment. The expected term of the options is calculated using the simplified method described in GAAP. The simplified method defines the expected term as the average of the contractual term and the vesting period. Estimated volatility is derived from volatility calculated using historical closing prices of common shares of similar entities whose share prices are publicly available for the expected term of the options. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury constant maturities in effect at the time of grant for the expected term of the options.

 

The Company did not issue any additional options during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

 

Warrants

 

On March 21, 2022, the Company entered into a promissory note with TQLA LLC to accept a one year loan of $3.5 million. In addition, the Company issued a common stock purchase warrant to TQLA covering the loan amount with an exercise price of $24.00 per share. The note payable was fully repaid in October 2022. The common stock purchase warrant expires in March 2027. The warrants were amended pursuant to the Debt Satisfaction Agreement (See discussion above) to prevent any exercise that would result in the warrant-holder and affiliates acquiring cumulative voting power in excess of 9.99%. This Beneficial Ownership Limitation may be increased to 19.99% upon 61 days advance notice to the Company.

 

From April 19, 2021 through May 12, 2021, the Company issued in a private placement Existing Warrants to purchase up to 45,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $52.00 per Warrant Share. On July 30, 2021, the Company entered into Inducement Letters with the holders of the Existing Warrants whereby such holders agreed to exercise for cash their Existing Warrants to purchase the 45,000 Warrant Shares in exchange for the Company’s agreement to issue new warrants (the “New Warrants”) to purchase up to 45,000 shares of common stock (the “New Warrant Shares”). The New Warrants have substantially the same terms as the Existing Warrants, except that the New Warrants have an exercise price of $60.00 per share and are exercisable until August 19, 2026. On September 29, 2023, pursuant to the Debt Satisfaction Agreement (see above), the exercise price of the Existing Warrants was reduced to $33.08 per share and the term during which the Existing Warrants may be exercised was extended to June 23, 2028.

Overview

 

Eastside Distilling, Inc. (the “Company,” “Eastside Distilling,” “we,” “us,” or “our,” below) was incorporated under the laws of Nevada in 2004 under the name of Eurocan Holdings, Ltd. In December 2014, we changed our corporate name to Eastside Distilling, Inc. to reflect our acquisition of Eastside Distilling, LLC. We operate in two segments. Our Craft Canning + Printing (“Craft C+P”) segment provides digital can printing to customers in the craft beverage industry operating throughout the Pacific Northwest as well as other states. We also provide mobile canning services to the craft beverage industry in Oregon. In addition to these services we offer co-packing services from a single fixed site in Portland, Oregon. Our Spirits segment manufactures, blends, bottles, markets and sells a wide variety of alcoholic beverages under recognized brands in 23 U.S. states. Across both businesses we employ 49 people in the United States.

 

Mission and Strategy

 

Our mission is to offer great products and services in the craft beverage space.

 

This includes advanced digital can printing decoration with custom graphics and co-packing services with distinct capability and craftsmanship serving the craft beer, cider, and kombucha among other beverage segments. Craft C+P offers digital can printing to customers and co-packing services.

 

Our spirits brands span several alcoholic beverage categories, including whiskey, vodka, rum and tequila. We sell our products on a wholesale basis to distributors through open states, and brokers in control states.

 

Our strategy is to expand our two distinct businesses – Craft C+P and Spirits in our regional market where our brand equity and concentration of investment will have the greatest return. Our spirits portfolio is to be positioned as a leading regional craft spirits provider that develops brands, expands geographic presence growing revenue and cash flow. These two segments are detailed below.

Segments

 

Craft Canning + Printing

 

Digital Can Printing

 

We operate an innovative digital can printing facility that allows us to digitally print high quality graphics on aluminum beverage cans. This technology offers greater flexibility than traditional decoration methods and initially was directed toward smaller craft beverage manufacturers seeking custom graphics of limited releases, vintages, partnerships, and special events. This investment in digital printing at Craft C+P allows us the ability to offer unparalleled customization and flexibility to craft beverage producers seeking direct printing for canning projects of all sizes, while having an annual production capacity of over 20 million cans.

 

 

Co-packing Facility

 

We offer co-packing services for non-alcoholic canned beverages including CBD soda waters in Portland, Oregon through a mobile co-packing network and one fixed co-packing location.

 

Mobile Canning

 

Our mobile canning business is located in Portland, Oregon. We use extensive proprietary and data-driven quality control measures and a robust clean-in-place procedure in order to provide the best packaging service for our customers. We take great pride in helping local beverage producers expand their distribution reach by using our service to offer industry-top quality and branding.

 

Spirits

 

Since 2014, we have developed or acquired award-winning spirits while evolving to meet the growing demand for quality products and services associated within the burgeoning craft and premium beverage trade. Our portfolio includes originals like the Quercus garryana barrel-finished Burnside Whiskey family, Portland Potato Vodka, Hue-Hue Coffee Rum, and Azuñia Tequilas.

 

  Burnside Whiskey Family – Our Burnside Whiskey Family celebrates the unique attributes of the native Oregon Oak tree (Quercus garryana). The unique complexity of each distinct whiskey comes from blending Oregon Oak barrels of differing sizes, char levels, and ages.
     
  Portland Potato Vodka – Our award-winning premium craft vodka is distilled four times to ensure a smooth finish. While most vodka is made from grain, we source award winning premium potato ethanol and blend it with pristine water sourced from Oregon.

 

  Hue-Hue (pronounced “way-way”) Coffee Rum – Premium silver rum is blended with concentrated cold-brewed coffee and a small amount of Demerara sugar. We source fair-trade, single-origin Arabica coffee beans from the Finca El Paternal Estate in Huehuetenango, Guatemala that are lightly roasted for us by Portland Coffee Roasters.
     
  Azuñia Tequilas – Smooth, clean, additive-free tequilas crafted by Rancho Miravalle, a second generation, family-owned-and-operated estate, bursting with authentic flavor from the local terroir of Tequila Valley, Mexico. 100% pure Weber Blue Agave is harvested by hand, roasted in traditional clay hornos, and finished with a natural, open-air fermentation process. It is bottled on-site in small batches using a consistent process to deliver consistent field-to-bottle quality and exclusively exported by Agaveros Unidos de Amatitán.
     
  Eastside Brands – Craft inspired high-quality limited-edition products, which focus on innovation, craftsmanship and curiosity, and creativity.

Recent Developments

 

During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, Craft C+P printed 6.0 million cans compared to 4.2 million during the second quarter of 2023. Craft improved production efficiency compared to the prior year period. In addition, Craft C+P has won significant new business from beverage manufacturers during 2024. Spirits sold minimal bulk barrels in the second quarter of 2024 and saw total volume decline by 12% in the quarter.  The majority of the decline was driven by the reduction of distribution of Azuñia tequila as the we realigned the brand with new distribution partners. Spirits case shipments in the quarter were down -12% with Portland Potato Vodka down -6% and Burnside -17% .

Sales

 

Sales were $5.5 million and $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $3.1 million and $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

Craft C+P

 

Sales increased 24% and 22% for the six and three months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, attributable to growth in digital can printing sales, partially offset by reduced mobile service. Craft printed 10.7 million and 6.0 million cans during the six and three months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to 6.7 million and 4.2 million cans during the six and three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was a result of incremental sales to both existing and new customers and improved throughput of production.

 

Spirits

 

Spirits sales decreased during the six months ended June 30, 2024 primarily because during the six months ended June 30, 2023 we sold 250 barrels for gross proceeds of $0.6 million, and we sold no barrels during the six months ended June 30, 2024. Spirits sales decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2024 due to market conditions. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, spirits sold 11,563 cases compared to 12,635 cases in the prior year, which included a large one-time direct-to-retail sale of 164 cases of Burnside.

 

25

 

 

Customer programs and excise taxes

 

Customer programs and excise taxes were $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $0.1 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Craft C+P discounts were higher for the six and three months ended June 30, 2024 as we offered tiered discounting to printed sales customers. Spirits discounts were higher for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 due to competitive pricing moves.

 

Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales consists of all direct costs related to both spirits and digital can printing for raw materials, service, labor, overhead, packaging, and in-bound freight charges. Cost of sales were $5.0 million and $4.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $2.8 million and $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

Craft C+P

 

Cost of sales increased in the quarter due to higher can volume and incremental inventory costs. We also continue to invest in spare parts, which are expensed and not capitalized. Incremental production volumes required both investment to improve production inefficiencies and increases in scrap.

 

Spirits

 

Cost of sales decreased for the six and three months ended June 30, 2024 due to lower bulk spirits and distributor sales, in addition to lower tequila pricing and raw material savings.

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross profit is calculated by subtracting the cost of products sold and services rendered from net sales. Gross profit was $0.3 million and $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $0.2 million and $26,272 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

Gross margin is gross profit stated as a percentage of net sales. Our gross margin was 6% and 12% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, 5% and 1% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

Craft C+P

 

Craft C+P’s gross profit and gross margin increased for the six and three months ended June 30, 2024 primarily due to continued growth in digital can printing volumes. Craft C+P margins were impacted by significant growth of new customers, scrap and production inefficiencies.

 

Spirits

 

Gross profit and gross margin decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2024 primarily due to bulk spirit sales during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Gross profit and gross margin increased for the three months ended June 30, 2024 due to cost savings initiatives that began in 2023 and continued into the first six months of 2024.

 

Sales and Marketing Expenses

 

Sales and marketing expenses were $0.5 million and $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, due to lower marketing expenses and reduced headcount as part of spirits restructuring.

 

26

 

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses were $2.3 million and $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $1.2 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 primarily due to the related costs of closing unprofitable operations and exiting leasing agreements at Craft C+P.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense was $0.6 million and $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $0.3 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

 

Net Income (Loss)

 

Net loss was $2.8 million and $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $1.5 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

Preferred Stock Dividends

 

Preferred stock dividends were $75,000 and $37,500 for the six and three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, representing the Series B preferred stock dividend of 6% per annum.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our primary capital requirements are for cash used in operating activities and the repayment of debt. Funds for our cash and liquidity needs have historically not been generated from operations but rather from short-term credit in the form of extended payment terms from suppliers as well as proceeds from loans and the sale of convertible debt and equity. We have been dependent on raising capital from debt and equity financing to meet our operating needs.

 

We had an accumulated deficit of $85.6 million as of June 30, 2024, having incurred a net loss of $2.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, we had $0.4 million of cash on hand with negative working capital of $12.2 million.

 

Our ability to meet our ongoing operating cash needs over the next 12 months depends on asset sales, external financing and improving operating results. The availability of external financing will be largely dependent on improvement in performance, including higher digital can printing revenues and improved gross margins at Craft C+P as well as operational improvements in our Spirits segment.

 

We have deferred paying interest during 2024 and are engaged in discussions with creditors to resolve a number of outstanding issues. There can be no assurances that we will successfully conclude these discussions and have the cash resources to fund operations.

 

Our cash flow results for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

 

(Dollars in thousands)  2024   2023 
Net cash flows provided by (used in):          
Operating activities  $(1.2)  $(0.7)
Investing activities  $0.1   $0.1 
Financing activities  $1.1   $0.7 

 

Operating Activities

 

Total cash used in operating activities was $1.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $0.7 million used during the six months ended June 30, 2023 primarily due to higher accrued interest and amortization of debt issuance costs.

 

27

 

 

Investing Activities

 

Total cash provided by investing activities was $0.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 representing net proceeds from the sale of fixed assets.

 

Financing Activities

 

Total cash provided by financing activities was $1.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 related to net proceeds from our secured credit facilities. Total cash provided by financing activities was $0.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 primarily consisted of proceeds from the issuance of stock.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These items are monitored and analyzed by management for changes in facts and circumstances, and material changes in these estimates could occur in the future. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from our estimates if past experience or other assumptions do not turn out to be substantially accurate.

 

In connection with the preparation of our financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2024, there was one accounting estimate we made that was subject to a high degree of uncertainty and was critical to our results, as follows:

 

Intangible Assets

 

On September 12, 2019, we purchased the Azuñia brand, the direct sales team, existing product inventory, supply chain relationships and contractual agreements from Intersect Beverage, LLC, an importer and distributor of tequila and related products. The Azuñia brand has been determined to have an indefinite life and will not be amortized. We do, however, on an annual basis, test the indefinite life assets for impairment. If the carrying value of the indefinite life assets are found to be impaired, then we will record an impairment loss and reduce the carrying value of the asset’s estimate the useful life of the brand and amortize the asset over the remainder of its useful life.

 

We estimate the brand’s fair value using market information to estimate future cash flows and will impair it when its carrying amount exceeds its estimated fair value, in which case we will write it down to its estimated fair value. We consider market values for similar assets when available. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate fair value, including making assumptions about future cash flows, net sales and discount rates.

 

We have the option, before quantifying the fair value, to evaluate qualitative factors to assess whether it is more likely than not that our brand is impaired. If we determine that is not the case, then we are not required to quantify the fair value. That assessment also takes considerable management judgment.

 

As of December 31, 2023, as a result of the review described above, we found the Azuñia brand to be impaired and reduced its carrying cost by $0.4 million.

 

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this item.

 

28

 

 

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) that are designed to provide reasonable assurances that the information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

We conducted an evaluation (pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act)), under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer has concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2024.

 

There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

On March 1, 2023, Sandstrom Partners, Inc. filed a complaint in the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for the County of Multnomah alleging the Company failed to pay for its services pursuant to an agreement entered into on October 16, 2019. The complaint seeks damages of $285,000, plus a judicial declaration, due to the Company’s failure to pay for the services. The Company believes that it paid for services rendered and, if any balance is outstanding, it is minimal. The Company intends to defend the case vigorously.

 

On December 15, 2020, Grover Wickersham filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District Court of Oregon against the Company. Mr. Wickersham, the former CEO and Chairman of the Board of the Company, has asserted causes of action for fraud in the inducement, breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, defamation, interference with economic advantage, elder financial abuse, and dissemination of false and misleading proxy materials. During June 2024, this case was settled.

 

We are not currently subject to any other material legal proceedings; however, we could be subject to legal proceedings and claims from time to time in the ordinary course of our business, or legal proceedings we considered immaterial may in the future become material. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can, among other things, be time consuming and expensive to resolve, and divert management resources.

 

ITEM 1A – RISK FACTORS

 

There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, except for the following additions:

 

If the Company is unable to remedy its shareholder equity deficiency, its common stock may be removed from Nasdaq.

 

On April 8, 2024, the Staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market notified the Company that it had fallen out of compliance with the requirements for continued listing of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq. Specifically, Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) requires that the stockholders’ equity of a listed company must exceed $2.5 million. On June 3, 2024 the Staff extended to October 7, 2024 the date by which Eastside Distilling may regain compliance with the Equity Rule. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had a stockholders’ deficit of $1.9 million. The Company can give no assurances that it will be able to submit a sufficient plan on time to be granted an extension.

 

On March 7, 2024, the Staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market notified the Company that it no longer complies with Nasdaq’s independent director and audit committee requirements as set forth in Listing Rule 5605. Nasdaq however, has provided a cure period to regain compliance prior to the earlier of the Company’s next annual shareholders’ meeting or January 22, 2025.

 

The Company has deferred paying interest to certain creditors in the first half of 2024 and is engaged in discussions with creditors to resolve a number of outstanding issues. There can be no assurances that the Company will successfully conclude these discussions and have the cash resources to fund operations.

ITEM 2 – UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

 

There were no unregistered sales of equity securities during the second quarter of 2024 that have not been previously reported.

 

The Company did not repurchase any of its equity securities that were registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act during the second quarter of fiscal year 2024.

Description of Business

1. Description of Business

 

Eastside Distilling (the “Company” or “Eastside Distilling”) was incorporated under the laws of Nevada in 2004 under the name of Eurocan Holdings, Ltd. In December 2014, the Company changed its corporate name to Eastside Distilling, Inc. to reflect the acquisition of Eastside Distilling, LLC. The Company manufactures, acquires, blends, bottles, imports, markets and sells a wide variety of alcoholic beverages under recognized brands. The Company currently employs 49 people in the United States.

 

The Company operates a beverage packaging and services business that operates in the beverage segment. During 2022, the Company made substantial investments to expand its product offerings to include digital can printing in the Pacific Northwest (together Craft Canning + Printing, “Craft C+P”). Craft C+P operates mobile filling lines and offers co-packing services with end-to-end production capabilities in Portland, Oregon.

 

The Company’s spirits’ brands span several alcoholic beverage categories, including whiskey, vodka, rum, and tequila. The Company sells products on a wholesale basis to distributors in open states and through brokers in control states.

Liquidity

2. Liquidity

 

The Company’s primary capital requirements are for cash used in operating activities and the repayment of debt. Funds for the Company’s cash and liquidity needs have historically not been generated from operations but rather from loans as well as from convertible debt and equity financing. The Company has been dependent on raising capital from debt and equity financing to meet the Company’s operating needs.

 

The Company had an accumulated deficit of $85.6 million as of June 30, 2024, having incurred a net loss of $2.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

 

The Company reduced debt in 2023 through a debt for preferred equity swap. However, the Company’s ability to meet its ongoing operating cash needs over the next 12 months depends on growing revenues and gross margins, and generating positive operating cash flow primarily through increased sales, improved profit growth, and controlling expenses. In addition, the Company has been negotiating with creditors to reduce the interest burden and improve cash flow. If the Company is unable to reach an agreement with creditors or obtain additional financing, or additional financing is not available on acceptable terms, the Company may seek to sell assets, reduce operating expenses, reduce or eliminate marketing initiatives, and take other measures that could impair its ability to be successful.

 

Although the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 were prepared under the assumption that it would continue operations as a going concern, the report of its independent registered public accounting firm that accompanied the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 contained a going concern explanatory paragraph in which such firm expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, based on the financial statements at that time. If the Company cannot continue as a going concern, its stockholders would likely lose most or all of their investment in it.

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for Eastside Distilling, Inc. and subsidiaries were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or eliminated as permitted under the SEC’s rules and regulations. In management’s opinion, the unaudited consolidated financial statements include all material adjustments, all of which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2024, its operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for an entire fiscal year. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Eastside Distilling, Inc.’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Craft Canning + Bottling, LLC (doing business as Craft Canning + Printing) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Galactic Unicorn Packaging, LLC (the Company’s acquired fixed co-packing assets). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

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

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Net sales include product sales, less excise taxes and customer programs and incentives. The Company recognizes revenue by applying the following steps in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

 

The Company recognizes spirits sales when merchandise is shipped from a warehouse directly to wholesale customers (except in the case of a consignment sale). For consignment sales, which include sales to the Oregon Liquor Control Commission, the Company recognizes sales upon the consignee’s shipment to the customer. Postage and handling charges billed to customers are also recognized as sales upon shipment of the related merchandise. Shipping terms are generally FOB shipping point, and title passes to the customer at the time and place of shipment or purchase by customers at a retail location. For consignment sales, title passes to the consignee concurrent with the consignee’s shipment to the customer. The customer has no cancellation privileges after shipment or upon purchase at retail locations, other than customary rights of return.

 

In the Craft C+P segment, sales are recognized when printed cans are delivered or when mobile filling services are performed.

 

Customer Programs

 

Customer programs, which include customer promotional discount programs, are a common practice in the alcoholic beverage industry. The Company reimburses wholesalers for an agreed amount to promote sales of products and to maintain competitive pricing. Amounts paid in connection with customer programs are recorded as reductions to net sales in accordance with ASC 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Amounts recorded in customer programs totaled $0.1 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Excise Taxes

 

The Company is responsible for compliance with the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (“TTB”) regulations, which includes making timely and accurate excise tax payments. The Company is subject to periodic compliance audits by the TTB. Individual states also impose excise taxes on alcoholic beverages in varying amounts. The Company calculates its excise tax expense based upon units produced and on its understanding of the applicable excise tax laws. Excise taxes totaled $0.1 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

 

Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales consists of all direct costs related to both spirits and canning for service, labor, overhead, packaging, and in-bound freight charges. Raw materials account for the largest portion of the cost of sales, followed by packaging and production costs.

 

Sales and Marketing Expenses

 

Sales and marketing expenses consist of sponsorships, agency fees, digital media, salary and benefit expenses, travel and entertainment expenses. Sales and marketing costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses totaled $44,482 and $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses consist of salary and benefit expenses, travel and entertainment expenses for executive and administrative staff, rent and utilities, professional fees, insurance, and amortization and depreciation expense. General and administrative costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes as compensation expense all stock-based awards issued to employees. The compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the related stock-based awards and is recognized over the service period of stock-based awards, which is generally the same as the vesting period. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which estimates the fair value of each award on the date of grant based on a variety of assumptions including expected stock price volatility, expected terms of the awards, risk-free interest rate, and dividend rates, if applicable. Stock-based awards issued to nonemployees are recorded at fair value on the measurement date and are subject to periodic market adjustments at the end of each reporting period and as the underlying stock-based awards vest.

 

Concentrations

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables. As of June 30, 2024, one customer represented 10% of trade receivables. As of December 31, 2023, one distributor represented 1% of trade receivables. Sales to one distributor accounted for 16% of consolidated sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Sales to one distributor and one wholesale customer accounted for 27% of consolidated sales for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

GAAP defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements. GAAP permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and contains financial statement presentation and disclosure requirements for assets and liabilities for which the fair value option is elected. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, management has not elected to report any of the Company’s assets or liabilities at fair value under the “fair value option” provided by GAAP.

The hierarchy of fair value valuation techniques under GAAP provides for three levels: Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3, if applicable, generally would require significant management judgment. The three levels for categorizing assets and liabilities under GAAP’s fair value measurement requirements are as follows:

 

  Level 1: Fair value of the asset or liability is determined using cash or unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
     
   Level 2: Fair value of the asset or liability is determined using inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the applicable asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar (as opposed to identical) assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
     
  Level 3: Fair value of the asset or liability is determined using unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement and reflect management’s own assumptions regarding the applicable asset or liability.

 

None of the Company’s assets or liabilities were measured at fair value as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023. However, GAAP requires the disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments that are not measured at fair value. Financial instruments consist principally of trade receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, notes payable, and the secured credit facilities. The estimated fair value of trade receivables, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying value due to the short period of time to their maturities. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the principal amounts of the Company’s notes approximate fair value.

 

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

 

Certain assets and liabilities acquired in a business acquisition are valued at fair value at the date of acquisition due to having indefinite lives. The Company, on an annual basis, tests the indefinite life assets for impairment. If an indefinite life asset is found to be impaired, then the Company will estimate its useful life and amortize the asset over the remainder of its useful life.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories primarily consist of bulk and bottled liquor and raw materials and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using an average costing methodology, which approximates cost under the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. A portion of the Company’s finished goods inventory is held by certain independent distributors on consignment until it is sold to a third party. The Company regularly monitors inventory quantities on hand and records write-downs for excess and obsolete inventories based primarily on the Company’s estimated forecast of product demand and production requirements. Such write-downs establish a new cost basis of accounting for the related inventory.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from three to 12.5 years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the life of the lease or the useful lives of the assets, whichever is shorter. The cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization of property and equipment sold or otherwise disposed of are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reported as current period income or expense. The costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

 

Intangible Assets / Goodwill

 

The Company accounts for certain intangible assets at cost. Management reviews these intangible assets for probable impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If there is an indication of impairment, management would prepare an estimate of future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these estimated cash flows were less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss would be recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value.

Long-lived Assets

 

The Company accounts for long-lived assets, including certain intangible assets, at amortized cost. Management reviews long-lived assets for probable impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If there is an indication of impairment, management would prepare an estimate of future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these estimated cash flows were less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss would be recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value.

 

Comprehensive Income

 

The Company did not have any other comprehensive income items in either the six months ended June 30, 2024 or 2023.

 

Accounts Receivable Factoring Program

 

The Company had two accounts receivable factoring programs: one for its spirits customers (the “spirits program”) that had a zero balance as of June 30, 2024 and another for its co-packing customers (the “co-packing program”) that terminated in August 2023. Under the programs, the Company had the option to sell certain customer account receivables in advance of payment for 75% (spirits program) or 85% (co-packing program) of the amount due. When the customer remits payment, the Company receives the remaining balance. For the spirits program, interest is charged on the advanced 75% payment at a rate of 2.4% for the first 30 days plus 1.44% for each additional ten-day period. For the co-packing program, interest was charged against the greater of $0.5 million or the total funds advanced at a rate of 1% plus the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal. Under the terms of both agreements, the factoring provider had full recourse against the Company should the customer fail to pay the invoice. In accordance with ASC Topic 860 – Transfers and Servicing, the Company has concluded that these agreements have met all three conditions identified in ASC Topic 860-10-40-5 (a) – (c) and have accounted for this activity as a sale. Given the quality of the factored accounts, the Company had not recognized a recourse obligation. In certain limited instances, the Company may provide collection services on the factored accounts but did not receive any fees for acting as the collection agent, and as such, the Company had not recognized a service obligation asset or liability. The Company factored $0.7 million of invoices and incurred $20,821 in fees associated with the factoring programs during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 seeks to improve disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments and add disclosures around a reportable segment’s expenses. The updated guidance is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning January 1, 2024, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning January 1, 2025. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 seeks to improve transparency in income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures. The updated guidance is effective for the Company on January 1, 2025. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-09 to have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

10. Leases

 

The Company has various lease agreements in place for facilities, equipment and vehicles. Terms of these leases include, in some instances, scheduled rent increases, renewals, purchase options and maintenance costs, and vary by lease. These lease obligations expire at various dates through 2027. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. As the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at commencement to determine the present value of the lease payments. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less (“short-term leases”) are not recorded on the balance sheet and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As of June 30, 2024, the amount of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were $2.1 million and $2.3 million, respectively. Aggregate lease expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $0.4 million, consisting of $0.5 million in operating lease expense for lease liabilities and $0.1 million in short-term lease cost.

 

Maturities of lease liabilities as of June 30, 2024 were as follows:

Note Purchase Agreement

 

On October 7, 2022, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement dated as of October 6, 2022 with Aegis Security Insurance Company (“Aegis”). Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, Aegis purchased from the Company a secured promissory note in the principal amount of $4.5 million (the “Aegis Note”). Aegis paid for the Aegis Note by paying $3.3 million to TQLA to fully satisfy a secured line of credit promissory note that the Company issued to TQLA on March 21, 2022; and the remaining $1.2 million was paid in cash to the Company. The Aegis Note bears interest at 9.25% per annum, payable every three months. The principal amount of the Aegis Note will be payable on March 31, 2025. The Company pledged substantially all of its assets to secure its obligations to Aegis under the Aegis Note.

 

On September 29, 2023, the Company entered into a Debt Satisfaction Agreement with Aegis and other creditors, pursuant to which the Aegis Note was amended and restated. See: Note 15, Stockholders Equity – Debt Satisfaction Agreement. Principal and interest of $1.9 million were exchanged for equity issued to a special purpose vehicle, The B.A.D. Company, LLC (the SPV), in which Aegis holds a 29% interest. As of June 30, 2024, the principal balance of the Aegis Note was $2.6 million and interest expense accrued was $0.1 million.

 

6% Secured Convertible Promissory Notes

 

On April 19, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) with accredited investors (“Subscribers”) for their purchase of up to $3.3 million of principal amount of 6% secured convertible promissory notes of the Company (“Note” or “Notes”), which notes are convertible into shares (“Conversion Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Notes with an initial conversion price of $44.00. In connection with the purchase of such Notes, each Subscriber received a warrant (“Existing Warrant”), to purchase a number of shares of common stock (“Warrant Shares”) equal to 60% of the principal amount of any Note issued to such Subscriber divided by the conversion price of the Note issued to such Subscriber, at an exercise price equal to $52.00. In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Security Agreement under which it granted the Subscribers a security interest in certain assets of the Company (the “Security Agreement”) and a Registration Rights Agreement under which the Company agreed to register for resale the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares. Concurrently therewith, the Company and the investors closed $3.3 million of the private offering.

Roth Capital, LLC acted as placement agent in the private offering, and the Company paid the Placement Agent a cash fee of five percent (5%) of the gross proceeds therefrom. The Company received $3.1 million in net proceeds from the closing, after deducting the fee payable to the Placement Agent and the legal fees of the Subscribers in connection with the transaction. The Company used the proceeds to repay prior outstanding notes payable and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

Interest on the Notes accrued at a rate of 6% per annum and was payable either in cash or in shares of the Company’s common stock at the conversion price in the Note on each of the six and twelve month anniversaries of the issuance date and on the maturity date of October 18, 2022.

 

All amounts due under the Notes are convertible at any time after the issuance date, in whole or in part (subject to rounding for fractional shares), at the option of the holders into the Company’s common stock at a fixed conversion price, which is subject to adjustment as summarized below. The Notes were initially convertible into the Company’s common stock at an initial fixed conversion price of $44.00 per share. This conversion price is subject to adjustment for stock splits, combinations, or similar events, among other adjustments. On April 1, 2022, the Company and the holders agreed to a reduction of the conversion price of the 6% secured convertible promissory notes to $26.00 per share in connection with the Company’s issuance of a common stock purchase warrant to TQLA covering its loan amount of $3.5 million with a common stock value of $24.00 per share.

 

The Notes contain customary triggering events including but not limited to: (i) failure to make payments when due under the Notes; and (ii) bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company. If a triggering event occurs, each holder may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Notes (including all accrued and unpaid interest thereon), in cash.

 

The Notes are secured by a subordinated security interest in the Company’s assets pursuant to the terms of a Security Agreement entered into between the Company and the Subscribers.

 

On October 13, 2022, the Company entered into an Amendment Agreement with the holders of the 6% Secured Convertible Promissory Notes. The Amendment Agreement changed the Maturity Date of the Notes from October 18, 2022 to November 18, 2022. In consideration of the extension, the Company issued 4,808 shares of its common stock to each of the Subscribers.

 

On September 29, 2023, the Company entered into a Debt Satisfaction Agreement with the Subscribers and other creditors, pursuant to which the Maturity Date of the Notes was extended from November 18, 2022 to March 31, 2025 and interest accrues at 9% per annum. See: Note 15, Stockholders Equity – Debt Satisfaction Agreement. Principal and interest on the Notes of $3.3 million was exchanged for equity issued to the SPV, in which the Subscribers held a 50% ownership interest, and the Notes were then amended and restated. As of June 30, 2024, the principal balance was $0.4 million and interest expense accrued was $27,451.

 

2024 Secured Notes

 

On May 15, 2024, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement with the SPV, Aegis, Bigger Capital Fund, LP (“Bigger”), District 2 Capital Fund, LP (“District 2”), and LDI Investments, LLC (“LDI”).

 

Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, Bigger, District 2 and LDI purchased from the Company for $1.1 million cash promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $1.1 million (the “2024 Secured Notes”). The 2024 Secured Notes may be satisfied by payment of 110% of principal on or before November 29, 2024, by payment of 130% of principal on or before March 30, 2025 or by payment of 140% of principal on March 31, 2025.

With each 2024 Secured Note, the Company issued Warrants to purchase a share of the Company’s common stock for $5.00 exercisable for five years after December 2, 2024 if on November 29, 2024 the 2024 Secured Note issued to the Warrant-holder remains unsatisfied. LDI received a Warrant to purchase 598,021 shares and each of Bigger and District 2 received a Warrant to purchase 299,011 shares.

 

The Loan Agreement provides that if the 2024 Secured Notes have not been satisfied by November 29, 2024, then until March 31, 2025 each of the Subscribers will have the right to purchase a “Kicker Note” in the amount of $0.5 million for LDI or $0.3 million for each of Bigger and District 2 by surrendering debt or equity instruments specified in the Loan Agreement. The Kicker Notes will not bear interest, and may be satisfied by payment of their principal amounts on or before March 31, 2026.

 

The Company’s obligations under the 2024 Secured Notes and the Kicker Notes (collectively, the “2024 Notes”) are secured by the Company’s pledge of its assets, subject to certain specified exceptions. In connection with the Loan Agreement, the Company, Aegis, Bigger and District 2 amended and restated the Intercreditor Agreement they had executed on September 29, 2023. In the Amended and Restated Intercreditor Agreement, Aegis, Bigger and District 2 subordinate their liens on any barrels of spirits owned by the Company, and the parties agree that the net proceeds of any sale of barrels will be paid to the Subscribers in satisfaction of the 2024 Notes. Commencing when all barrels have been sold, the lien of the Subscribers under the 2024 Notes will become pari passu with the senior lien on the remaining collateral.

Legal Matters

 

On March 1, 2023, Sandstrom Partners, Inc. filed a complaint in the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for the County of Multnomah alleging the Company failed to pay for its services pursuant to an agreement entered into on October 16, 2019. The complaint seeks damages of $285,000, plus a judicial declaration, due to the Company’s failure to pay for the services. The Company believes that it paid for services rendered and, if any balance is outstanding, it is minimal. The Company intends to defend the case vigorously.

 

On December 15, 2020, Grover Wickersham filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Oregon against the Company. Mr. Wickersham, the former CEO and Chairman of the Board of the Company, has asserted causes of action for fraud in the inducement, breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, defamation, interference with economic advantage, elder financial abuse, and dissemination of false and misleading proxy materials. During June 2024, this case was settled.

 

The Company is not currently subject to any other material legal proceedings; however, it could be subject to legal proceedings and claims from time to time in the ordinary course of its business, or legal proceedings it considered immaterial may in the future become material. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can, among other things, be time consuming and expensive to resolve, and can divert management resources.

Basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without considering any dilutive items. Potentially dilutive securities consist of the incremental common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options, convertible notes and warrants. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. There were no anti-dilutive common shares included in the calculation of income (loss) per common share as of June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Debt Satisfaction Agreement

 

On September 29, 2023, the Company entered into a Debt Satisfaction Agreement (the “DSA”) with the SPV, Aegis, Bigger, District 2, LDI and TQLA, LLC. The SPV is a special purpose vehicle whose equity is shared 50% by Bigger and District 2 and 50% by Aegis and LDI.

 

Pursuant to the DSA, on September 29, 2023, the Company issued to the SPV 296,722 shares of the Company’s common stock and 200,000 shares of its Series C Preferred Stock, and executed a Registration Rights Agreement providing that the Company will register for public resale that common stock and the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock. In exchange for that equity, the Company’s debts to the members of the SPV were reduced by a total of $6.5 million and the Company recognized a loss on the conversion of $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. Specifically, the debt was reduced as follows:

 

  the principal balance of the Secured Promissory Note issued by the Company to Aegis on October 6, 2022 was reduced by $1.9 million;
     
   the Company’s debt to LDI of $1.4 million arising from advances made by LDI to the Company during the past 10 months was eliminated;
     
   the aggregate principal balance of the Secured Convertible Promissory Notes issued by the Company to Bigger in April and May of 2021 was reduced by $1.6 million; and
     
   the aggregate principal balance of the Secured Convertible Promissory Notes issued by the Company to District 2 in April and May of 2021 was reduced by $1.6 million.

 

Further pursuant to the DSA:

 

  the maturity date of the secured debt listed above as well as unsecured notes issued by the Company and held by Bigger and District 2 in the aggregate amount of $7.4 million was deferred to March 31, 2025 and the interest rate on all such debt was increased to 8% per annum;
     
  the Company, Aegis, Bigger and District 2 entered into an Intercreditor Agreement, pursuant to which the remaining secured debt obligations of the Company to Aegis, Bigger and District 2 were made pari passu;
     
  the Common Stock Purchase Warrant issued by the Company to TQLA LLC on March 21, 2022, which permits TQLA LLC to purchase up to 145,834 shares of the Company’s common stock, was amended to prevent any exercise of the Warrant that would result in the portion of the cumulative voting power in the Company that the holder and its affiliates may own after the conversion to 9.99%. The Beneficial Ownership Limitation may be increased to 19.99% by the holder upon 61 days advance notice to the Company.
     
  Upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company, or upon the effective date of a consolidation, merger or statutory share exchange in which the Company is not the surviving entity, the holder of each share of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to a distribution prior to and in preference of the holders of the common stock.
     
  In the event the Company declares a dividend payable in cash or stock to holders of any class of stock, the holder of each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive a dividend equal in amount and kind to that payable to the holder of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock into which that holder’s Series C Preferred Stock could be converted on the record date for the distribution common stock. The dividends issued on the Company s outstanding Series B Preferred Stock are excluded from this provision.
     
  The holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights; except that nothing will limit a holder’s voting rights with respect to shares of any other class of the Company’s common stock held from time to time.

For “in-kind” dividends, holders will receive that number of shares of common stock equal to (i) the amount of the dividend payment due such stockholder divided by (ii) the volume weighted average price of the common stock for the 90 trading days immediately preceding a dividend date (“VWAP”). For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company issued dividends of 92,957 shares of common stock at a VWAP of $1.61 per share to its Series B Preferred stockholders.

A summary of all stock option activity as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2024 is presented below:

 

   # of Options   Weighted-
Average
Exercise Price
 
Outstanding as of December 31, 2023   2,120   $57.95 
           
Outstanding and Exercisable as of June 30, 2024   2,120   $57.95 

 

The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding as of June 30, 2024 was $0. As of June 30, 2024, all options had vested.

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to measure the grant-date fair value of stock options. The grant-date fair value of stock options issued to employees is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Stock-based awards issued to nonemployees are recorded at fair value on the measurement date and are subject to periodic market adjustments as the underlying stock-based awards vest.

 

To determine the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model, the calculation takes into consideration the effect of the following:

 

  Exercise price of the option
  Fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant
  Expected term of the option
  Expected volatility over the expected term of the option
  Risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option

 

The calculation includes several assumptions that require management’s judgment. The expected term of the options is calculated using the simplified method described in GAAP. The simplified method defines the expected term as the average of the contractual term and the vesting period. Estimated volatility is derived from volatility calculated using historical closing prices of common shares of similar entities whose share prices are publicly available for the expected term of the options. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury constant maturities in effect at the time of grant for the expected term of the options.

 

The Company did not issue any additional options during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

 

Warrants

 

On March 21, 2022, the Company entered into a promissory note with TQLA LLC to accept a one year loan of $3.5 million. In addition, the Company issued a common stock purchase warrant to TQLA covering the loan amount with an exercise price of $24.00 per share. The note payable was fully repaid in October 2022. The common stock purchase warrant expires in March 2027. The warrants were amended pursuant to the Debt Satisfaction Agreement (See discussion above) to prevent any exercise that would result in the warrant-holder and affiliates acquiring cumulative voting power in excess of 9.99%. This Beneficial Ownership Limitation may be increased to 19.99% upon 61 days advance notice to the Company.

 

From April 19, 2021 through May 12, 2021, the Company issued in a private placement Existing Warrants to purchase up to 45,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $52.00 per Warrant Share. On July 30, 2021, the Company entered into Inducement Letters with the holders of the Existing Warrants whereby such holders agreed to exercise for cash their Existing Warrants to purchase the 45,000 Warrant Shares in exchange for the Company’s agreement to issue new warrants (the “New Warrants”) to purchase up to 45,000 shares of common stock (the “New Warrant Shares”). The New Warrants have substantially the same terms as the Existing Warrants, except that the New Warrants have an exercise price of $60.00 per share and are exercisable until August 19, 2026. On September 29, 2023, pursuant to the Debt Satisfaction Agreement (see above), the exercise price of the Existing Warrants was reduced to $33.08 per share and the term during which the Existing Warrants may be exercised was extended to June 23, 2028.

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for Eastside Distilling, Inc. and subsidiaries were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or eliminated as permitted under the SEC’s rules and regulations. In management’s opinion, the unaudited consolidated financial statements include all material adjustments, all of which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2024, its operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for an entire fiscal year. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Eastside Distilling, Inc.’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Craft Canning + Bottling, LLC (doing business as Craft Canning + Printing) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Galactic Unicorn Packaging, LLC (the Company’s acquired fixed co-packing assets). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

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

 

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

 

Net sales include product sales, less excise taxes and customer programs and incentives. The Company recognizes revenue by applying the following steps in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

 

The Company recognizes spirits sales when merchandise is shipped from a warehouse directly to wholesale customers (except in the case of a consignment sale). For consignment sales, which include sales to the Oregon Liquor Control Commission, the Company recognizes sales upon the consignee’s shipment to the customer. Postage and handling charges billed to customers are also recognized as sales upon shipment of the related merchandise. Shipping terms are generally FOB shipping point, and title passes to the customer at the time and place of shipment or purchase by customers at a retail location. For consignment sales, title passes to the consignee concurrent with the consignee’s shipment to the customer. The customer has no cancellation privileges after shipment or upon purchase at retail locations, other than customary rights of return.

 

In the Craft C+P segment, sales are recognized when printed cans are delivered or when mobile filling services are performed.

 

Customer Programs

Customer Programs

 

Customer programs, which include customer promotional discount programs, are a common practice in the alcoholic beverage industry. The Company reimburses wholesalers for an agreed amount to promote sales of products and to maintain competitive pricing. Amounts paid in connection with customer programs are recorded as reductions to net sales in accordance with ASC 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Amounts recorded in customer programs totaled $0.1 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Excise Taxes

Excise Taxes

 

The Company is responsible for compliance with the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (“TTB”) regulations, which includes making timely and accurate excise tax payments. The Company is subject to periodic compliance audits by the TTB. Individual states also impose excise taxes on alcoholic beverages in varying amounts. The Company calculates its excise tax expense based upon units produced and on its understanding of the applicable excise tax laws. Excise taxes totaled $0.1 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

 

Cost of Sales

Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales consists of all direct costs related to both spirits and canning for service, labor, overhead, packaging, and in-bound freight charges. Raw materials account for the largest portion of the cost of sales, followed by packaging and production costs.

 

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and Marketing Expenses

 

Sales and marketing expenses consist of sponsorships, agency fees, digital media, salary and benefit expenses, travel and entertainment expenses. Sales and marketing costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses totaled $44,482 and $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses consist of salary and benefit expenses, travel and entertainment expenses for executive and administrative staff, rent and utilities, professional fees, insurance, and amortization and depreciation expense. General and administrative costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes as compensation expense all stock-based awards issued to employees. The compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the related stock-based awards and is recognized over the service period of stock-based awards, which is generally the same as the vesting period. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which estimates the fair value of each award on the date of grant based on a variety of assumptions including expected stock price volatility, expected terms of the awards, risk-free interest rate, and dividend rates, if applicable. Stock-based awards issued to nonemployees are recorded at fair value on the measurement date and are subject to periodic market adjustments at the end of each reporting period and as the underlying stock-based awards vest.

 

Concentrations

Concentrations

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables. As of June 30, 2024, one customer represented 10% of trade receivables. As of December 31, 2023, one distributor represented 1% of trade receivables. Sales to one distributor accounted for 16% of consolidated sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Sales to one distributor and one wholesale customer accounted for 27% of consolidated sales for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

 

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

 

GAAP defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements. GAAP permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and contains financial statement presentation and disclosure requirements for assets and liabilities for which the fair value option is elected. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, management has not elected to report any of the Company’s assets or liabilities at fair value under the “fair value option” provided by GAAP.

 

 

Eastside Distilling, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2024

(Unaudited) 

 

The hierarchy of fair value valuation techniques under GAAP provides for three levels: Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3, if applicable, generally would require significant management judgment. The three levels for categorizing assets and liabilities under GAAP’s fair value measurement requirements are as follows:

 

  Level 1: Fair value of the asset or liability is determined using cash or unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
     
   Level 2: Fair value of the asset or liability is determined using inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the applicable asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar (as opposed to identical) assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
     
  Level 3: Fair value of the asset or liability is determined using unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement and reflect management’s own assumptions regarding the applicable asset or liability.

 

None of the Company’s assets or liabilities were measured at fair value as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023. However, GAAP requires the disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments that are not measured at fair value. Financial instruments consist principally of trade receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, notes payable, and the secured credit facilities. The estimated fair value of trade receivables, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying value due to the short period of time to their maturities. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the principal amounts of the Company’s notes approximate fair value.

 

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

 

Certain assets and liabilities acquired in a business acquisition are valued at fair value at the date of acquisition due to having indefinite lives. The Company, on an annual basis, tests the indefinite life assets for impairment. If an indefinite life asset is found to be impaired, then the Company will estimate its useful life and amortize the asset over the remainder of its useful life.

 

Inventories

Inventories

 

Inventories primarily consist of bulk and bottled liquor and raw materials and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using an average costing methodology, which approximates cost under the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. A portion of the Company’s finished goods inventory is held by certain independent distributors on consignment until it is sold to a third party. The Company regularly monitors inventory quantities on hand and records write-downs for excess and obsolete inventories based primarily on the Company’s estimated forecast of product demand and production requirements. Such write-downs establish a new cost basis of accounting for the related inventory.

 

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from three to 12.5 years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the life of the lease or the useful lives of the assets, whichever is shorter. The cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization of property and equipment sold or otherwise disposed of are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reported as current period income or expense. The costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

 

Intangible Assets / Goodwill

Intangible Assets / Goodwill

 

The Company accounts for certain intangible assets at cost. Management reviews these intangible assets for probable impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If there is an indication of impairment, management would prepare an estimate of future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these estimated cash flows were less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss would be recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value.

Long-lived Assets

Long-lived Assets

 

The Company accounts for long-lived assets, including certain intangible assets, at amortized cost. Management reviews long-lived assets for probable impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If there is an indication of impairment, management would prepare an estimate of future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these estimated cash flows were less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss would be recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value.

 

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive Income

 

The Company did not have any other comprehensive income items in either the six months ended June 30, 2024 or 2023.

 

Accounts Receivable Factoring Program

Accounts Receivable Factoring Program

 

The Company had two accounts receivable factoring programs: one for its spirits customers (the “spirits program”) that had a zero balance as of June 30, 2024 and another for its co-packing customers (the “co-packing program”) that terminated in August 2023. Under the programs, the Company had the option to sell certain customer account receivables in advance of payment for 75% (spirits program) or 85% (co-packing program) of the amount due. When the customer remits payment, the Company receives the remaining balance. For the spirits program, interest is charged on the advanced 75% payment at a rate of 2.4% for the first 30 days plus 1.44% for each additional ten-day period. For the co-packing program, interest was charged against the greater of $0.5 million or the total funds advanced at a rate of 1% plus the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal. Under the terms of both agreements, the factoring provider had full recourse against the Company should the customer fail to pay the invoice. In accordance with ASC Topic 860 – Transfers and Servicing, the Company has concluded that these agreements have met all three conditions identified in ASC Topic 860-10-40-5 (a) – (c) and have accounted for this activity as a sale. Given the quality of the factored accounts, the Company had not recognized a recourse obligation. In certain limited instances, the Company may provide collection services on the factored accounts but did not receive any fees for acting as the collection agent, and as such, the Company had not recognized a service obligation asset or liability. The Company factored $0.7 million of invoices and incurred $20,821 in fees associated with the factoring programs during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 seeks to improve disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments and add disclosures around a reportable segment’s expenses. The updated guidance is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning January 1, 2024, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning January 1, 2025. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 seeks to improve transparency in income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures. The updated guidance is effective for the Company on January 1, 2025. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-09 to have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.
