“Gross Profit: Gross profit margin was 39.5% and 44.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease in gross profit margin was primarily driven by an increase in produce costs, specifically limes. In February 2026, lime costs spiked significantly following disruptions in western Mexico that interrupted normal supply routes. This resulted in the cost of limes to temporarily, but dramatically, increase throughout the remainder of the quarter. …”see in full comparison

Results
of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, and 2025
The
following table summarizes our results of operations for the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025, respectively:
For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company reported net income of approximately $470 and $1,170, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company reported net income of approximately $858 and $1,977, respectively (amounts in thousands).
Net Sales: Net sales increased $941, or 26.4%, to $4,508 thousand from $3,567 for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The core beverage business continued same store organic growth, supplemented by partial quarter contributions from two initiatives launched during the quarter: the distribution of Buda Fresh into Wal-Mart across 9 states and a small, cash-funded asset acquisition in freshly prepared dressings. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company reported net sales of approximately $8,016 and $6,547, respectively (amounts in thousands).
For
the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company reported net income of approximately $388 thousand and $807 thousand,
respectively. The change in net income between the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 reflects strong revenue growth offset
by increased costs of produce, primarily citrus, as well as an increase in general and administrative costs associated with the
Company’s initial public offering in January 2026. Additionally, the Company recognized an increase of $124 thousand in interest income as a result of an increase in
cash balances after the IPO, though offset with an increase in income tax expense of $350 thousand after conversion from a LLC to a C-Corporation.
Net
Sales: Net sales increased $528 thousand, or 17.7%, to $3,508 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from $2,980
thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was mainly driven by an increase in sales by our primary
customer.
Gross Profit: Gross profit margin was 36.6% and 46.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. This decrease was driven by higher inbound freight costs resulting from diesel-price volatility, interim third-party co-packing arrangement supporting our new dressings business, as well as from elevated produce costs carried over from the first quarter, which have returned to normalized levels. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, gross profit margin was 37.9% and 45.9%, respectively. This decrease was mostly driven by the aforementioned factors.
Gross
Profit: Gross profit margin was 39.5% and 44.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease in
gross profit margin was primarily driven by an increase in produce costs, specifically limes. In February 2026, lime costs spiked significantly following disruptions in western Mexico that interrupted normal
supply routes. This resulted in the cost of limes to temporarily, but dramatically, increase throughout the remainder of the quarter.
Conversely, our labor costs, as a percentage of revenue, improved by more than 1.5 percentage points year over year, helping to offset
some of the increase in produce costs.
Delivery
and Handling Expense: Delivery and handling expense was essentially flat, with a small increase of 1.3%,$7 thousand, or 4.8%, to $130$152
thousand for the three months
ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026.2026 from $145 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2025. For the six months ended
June 30, 2026 and 2025, delivery and handling expense was $282 thousand and $273 thousand, respectively, an increase of $9 thousand,
or 3.3%.
Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses: Selling, general, and administrative expense increased by $256$677 thousand, or 62.9%,179.1%, to $663
thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from $407$1,055 thousand for the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, from $378 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2025. TheFor increasethe insix

Other
income: Other income was $17$6 thousand for the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, an immaterial decrease of $16 from the three months
ended June 30, 2025. Other income was $23 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2026, an immaterial increase of $17$1 from the six
three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025.
Interest income: Interest income was $149 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $136 thousand from the three months ended June 30, 2025. Interest income was $286 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of 260 thousand from the six months ended June 30, 2025. These increases are a result of an increased investable cash balance as a result of the IPO in January 2026.
Interest
income: Interest income was $137 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2026, an increase of $124 thousand from the
three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase is a result of the Company’s IPO, and underwriter over-allotment option
exercise in January 2026 with net proceeds of $20,652. This was partially offset by the shareholder redemption as part of the IPO
transaction in the amount of $3,750 thousand to bring the total net proceeds from all IPO related transactions to $16,902 thousand, thereby
increasing the Company’s investable cash and therefore an increase in interest income.
Income
Taxes: The Company is a Subchapter C corporation for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes. Amounts recognized as income
income taxes are presented within “income tax expense” in the accompanying statements of operations. The Company
recognized income
tax expense of $359 thousand$488 and $9 thousand$18 for the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The
effective tax rate for the threesix months
ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 was 46.76%,36.23%, compared to 1.07%0.90% for the same period in 2025. The increase
in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable
to the discrete recognition of deferred tax expense upon the Company’s
conversion to a C-corporation on January 1, 2026. The Company
did not record a valuation allowance as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 due to its
cumulative income position. Prior to the Conversion on January 1,
2026, the Predecessor was treated as a partnership and was subject only to the Texas margin tax.
In
the past few years, we have financed our operations primarily through cash generated from our business operations and proceeds on borrowings
borrowings through our credit facilities. We had $19,828$18,819 thousand and $1,840 thousand of cash and cash equivalents as of MarchJune 31,
30, 2026 and December
31, 2025, respectively.
Working
Capital: The following table summarizes total current assets, liabilities and working capital at MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to December
31, 2025 (in thousands):
As of June 30, 2026, we had working capital of approximately $20,143 thousand as compared to working capital of $2,634 thousand as of December 31, 2025, an increase of $17,509 thousand.
As
of March 31, 2026, we had working capital of approximately $19,942 thousand as compared to working capital of $2,634 thousand as of
December 31, 2025, an increase of $17,308 thousand. The increase is a result of the Company’s IPO, and underwriter
over-allotment option exercise in January 2026 with net proceeds of $20,652 thousand. This was partially offset by the shareholder
redemption as part of the IPO transaction in the amount of $3,750 thousand to bring the total net proceeds from all IPO related
transactions to $16,902 thousand.
As
of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we were party to non-cancellable operating lease agreements related to our production facility and office space. Future
Future minimum lease payments under this agreement total approximately $886$839 thousand, with $191$193 thousand due within the next 12
months and $695 $646
thousand due thereafter through July 2030. These commitments represent a significant use of cash and we expect to
fund them through a
combination of existing cash balances and cash flows from operations.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026, was approximately $940 thousand compared to cash provided of $1,833 thousand for the same period in 2025, a decrease of $893 thousand, or 48.7%. Operating cash flow during the quarter was impacted by a one-time increase in accounts receivable following the transition of a large customer from a 1% discount for payment within 10 days to standard net 30 payment terms. Additionally, net income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was approximately $858 thousand and $1,977 thousand, respectively, a decrease of $1,119. This was a result of the aforementioned temporary gross margin impacts as well as public company, stock-based compensation and income tax expenses which were not present on a comparable basis during the prior-year period.

thousand and $807 thousand, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, operating activities were impacted by
approximately $269 thousand of additional general and administrative expenses, mainly due to the public company related expenses not
incurred in prior years, including salaries and wages. In addition, the Company recognized $359 thousand of federal income tax
expense provision as a result of the conversion from a LLC to a C-Corporation in preparation of the IPO. However, these additional
operating outflows were partially offset by the increase of $124 thousand in interest income as a result of the increase in
investable cash balances which resulted from the Company’s net IPO proceeds of $16,902 thousand.
Net
cash used in investing activities for the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, was $218$788 thousand as compared to $139$270 thousand for the six
