(“Halo”). Unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, the historical business information described in this Quarterly Report prior to consummation of the May Acquisitions is that of TruPet and, following consummation of the May Acquisitions through December 19, 2019, reflects business information of the Company, TruPet, and Bona Vida.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Nature of the Business

Better Choice Company Inc. is a rapidly growing animal health and wellness company committed to leading the industry shift toward pet products and services that help dogs and cats live heathier, happier and longer lives. The Company sells the majority of its dog food, cat food and treats under the Halo and TruDog brands, which are focused, respectively, on providing sustainably sourced kibble and canned food derived from real whole meat, and minimally processed raw-diet dog food and treats.

On May 6, 2019, the Company completed the reverse acquisition of TruPet LLC (“TruPet”) and Bona Vida Inc. (“Bona Vida”) in a pair of all stock transactions (together referred to as the “May Acquisitions”) through the issuance of shares of common stock. Following the completion of the May Acquisitions, the business conducted by the Company became primarily the businesses conducted by TruPet and Bona Vida. As a result, the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 are comprised of the results of TruPet for the period between January 1, 2019 and December 31, 2019 and the results of Bona Vida beginning May 6, 2019 through December 31, 2019. The Company completed the acquisition of Halo on December 19, 2019 (see “Note 2 – Acquisitions”). Accordingly, Halo’s operations are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements beginning on December 19, 2019.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments which, in management’s opinion, are necessary for a fair statement of the results for interim periods. Results of operations for interim periods may not be representative of results to be expected for the full year.

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Tables are presented in U.S. dollars (thousands) and percentage as rounded up or down. In the notes, the Company represents U.S. dollars (millions) and percentage as rounded up or down.

Consolidation

The Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). The financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis subsequent to acquisitions and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Going Concern Considerations

The Company is subject to risks common in the pet wellness consumer market including, but not limited to, dependence on key personnel, competitive forces, successful marketing and sale of its products, the successful protection of its proprietary technologies, ability to grow into new markets, and compliance with government regulations. In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. Uncertainties regarding the economic impact of COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, are likely to result in sustained market turmoil which could also negatively impact the Company’s business, financial condition, and cash flows. The Company has continually incurred losses and has an accumulated deficit. The Company continues to rely on current investors and the public markets to finance these losses through debt and/or equity issuances. These operating losses and the outstanding debt create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the date these interim condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The Company is implementing plans to achieve cost savings and other strategic objectives to address these conditions. The Company expects cost savings from consolidation of third-party manufacturers, optimizing shipping and warehousing as well as overhead cost reductions. The business is focused on growing the most profitable channels while reducing investments in areas that are not expected to have long-term benefits. The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and payments of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Accordingly, the interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount of and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Table of Contents

Restricted cash

The Company is required to maintain a restricted cash balance of less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 associated with a business credit card and credit card clearance operations.

Allowance for doubtful accounts

Accounts receivable consist of unpaid buyer invoices from the Company’s Retail customers and credit card payments receivable from third-party credit card processing companies. Accounts receivable is stated at the amount billed to customers, net of point of sale and cash discounts.

Goodwill

Goodwill of $18.6 million was recognized as of December 31, 2019 in connection with the Halo Acquisition (see “Note 2 – Acquisitions”). No impairment was recognized as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Intangible assets

The Company acquired an intangible asset related to the Houndog license with the acquisition of Bona Vida on May 6, 2019. The Company fully impaired the asset as of December 31, 2019 as the Company terminated the contract on January 13, 2020. The Company also acquired intangible assets consisting of customer relationships and trade name with the acquisition of Halo on December 19, 2019. There were no indicators of impairment of intangible assets as of June 30, 2020.

Reclassification of prior period presentation

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior period data to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no material effect on the reported results.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

The Company has reviewed the Accounting Standards Update (ASU), accounting pronouncements and interpretations thereof issued by the FASB that have effective dates during the reporting period and in future periods.

Recently adopted:

ASU 2018-13 “Fair Value Measurement”

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” This new guidance removes certain disclosure requirements related to the fair value hierarchy, modifies existing disclosure requirements related to measurement uncertainty and adds new disclosure requirements. The new disclosure requirements include disclosing the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. This new guidance was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2020 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2018-15 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)”

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15 “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)” to amend ASU 2015-05 in an effort to provide additional guidance on the accounting for costs implementation activities performed in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. The amendments in this update align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal use software license). The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected by the amendments in this update. The amendments in this update also require the entity to present the expense related to the capitalized implementation costs in the same line item in the statement of income as the fees associated with the hosting element (service) of the arrangement and classify payments for capitalizing implementation costs in the statement of cash flows in the same manner as payments made for fees associated with the hosting element. The entity is also required to present the capitalized implementation costs in the statement of financial position in the same line item that a prepayment for the fees of the associated hosting arrangement would be presented. The new standard was effective for the Company on January 1, 2020. The Company has no internal use software.

Issued but not Yet Adopted:

ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326)” Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326). Subsequent updates were released in November 2018 (ASU No. 2018-19), November 2019 (ASU No. 2019-10 and 2019-11) and February 2020 (ASU No. 2020-02) that provided additional guidance on this Topic. This ASU introduces the current expected credit loss (CECL) model, which will require an entity to measure credit losses for certain financial instruments and financial assets, including trade receivables. Under this update, on initial recognition and at each reporting period, an entity will be required to recognize an allowance that reflects the entity’s current estimate of credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the financial instrument. The standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2023, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

ASU 2019-12 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASU 2019- 12”), which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

ASU 2020-04 “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting”

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This ASU provides optional expedient and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. In response to the concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates (IBORs) and, particularly, the risk of cessation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), regulators in several jurisdictions around the world have undertaken reference rate reform initiatives to identify alternative reference rates that are more observable or transaction based and less susceptible to manipulation. The ASU provides companies with optional guidance to ease the potential accounting burden associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued. The ASU can be adopted no later than December 1, 2022 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

ASU 2020-03 “Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments”

In March 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-03. This ASU improves and clarifies various financial instruments topics, including the current expected credit losses (CECL) standard issued in 2016. The ASU includes seven different issues that describe the areas of improvement and the related amendments to GAAP, intended to make the standards easier to understand and apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. The amendments have different effective dates. The Company is evaluating the impact the accounting guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

The Company has carefully considered other new pronouncements that alter previous generally accepted accounting principles and does not believe that any new or modified principles will have a material impact on the Company’s reported balance sheets or operations.

Note 2 - Acquisitions Acquisition of Halo

On October 15, 2019, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) to acquire Halo and the acquisition (the “Halo Acquisition”) was completed on December 19, 2019 (“Halo Acquisition Date”) for $38.2 million. The consideration was subject to customary adjustments for Halo’s net working capital, cash, and indebtedness, and consisted of a combination of cash consideration ($20.5 million), shares of the Company’s common stock ($3.9 million), seller notes ($15.0 million), and seller warrants ($0.3 million).

The Halo Acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the identifiable assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair values at the Halo Acquisition Date. The determination of the preliminary purchase price allocation to specific assets acquired and liabilities assumed is incomplete for Halo. The preliminary purchase price allocation may change in future periods as the fair value estimates of assets and liabilities and the valuation of the related tax assets and liabilities are completed. The preliminary purchase price allocation is summarized as follows:

Table of Contents

Dollars in thousands
Total Purchase Price	$	38,244
Assets
Property and equipment	$	260
Accounts receivable		5,540
Inventories		5,160
Intangible assets		14,690
Other assets		329
Total assets		25,979
Liabilities
Accounts payable		4,628
Accrued liabilities		1,553
Long term liability		168
Total liabilities		6,349
Net assets acquired		19,630
Goodwill	$	18,614

The intangible assets acquired relate to customer relationships and trade name. Acquired customer relationships are finite-lived intangible assets and are amortized over their estimated life of 7 years using the straight-line method, which approximates the customer attrition rate, reflecting the pattern of economic benefits associated with these assets.

All of Halo’s products and services are sold under the “Halo” trade name, and each major product is identified by this trade name. The trade name is a finite-lived intangible asset and is being amortized over its estimated life of 15 years using the straight-line method, which reflects the pattern of economic benefits associated with this asset.

The excess of purchase price over the fair value amounts assigned to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed represents goodwill from the acquisition. The Company believes the factors that contributed to goodwill include the acquisition of a talented workforce and administrative cost synergies. The Company does not expect any portion of this goodwill to be deductible for tax purposes. See “Note 9 – Intangible assets, royalties, and goodwill” for more information.

Reverse Acquisitions of Better Choice and Bona Vida by TruPet

On May 6, 2019, Better Choice Company completed the reverse acquisitions of TruPet and Bona Vida whereby TruPet is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The acquisitions were accounted for as asset acquisitions.

The purchase price for Better Choice Company was $37.9 million and has been allocated based on an estimate of the fair value of Better Choice Company’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the remainder recorded as an expense. The loss on acquisition of Better Choice Company’s net liabilities is $39.6 million.

The purchase price for Bona Vida was $108.6 million and the estimated purchase price has been allocated based on an estimate of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The excess of the purchase price over the net assets acquired has been recorded as an expense. The loss on acquisition of Bona Vida’s net assets is $107.8 million.

In connection with the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2019, the Company identified an error in the consolidated financial statements for the six month period ended June 30, 2019 related to the overstatement of loss on acquisitions of $2.6 million in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. This was primarily due to a change in the estimated purchase price, which also resulted in errors in the statement of stockholders’ deficit and statement of cash flows. The errors were all corrected during the three-month period ended September 30, 2019. The Company believes the correction of these errors is not material to the consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended June 30, 2019.

Note 3 - Revenue

The Company has two categories of revenue channels: retail-partner based (“Retail”), which includes the sale of product to e-commerce retailers, pet specialty chains, grocery, mass and distributors, and direct to consumer (“DTC”), which is focused on driving consumers to directly purchase product through its online web platform.

Retail-partner based channel

The Company’s Retail channel includes the sale of goods to customers for resale. The Company records revenue net of discounts. Discounts primarily consist of early pay discounts, general percentage allowances and contractual trade promotions such as auto-ship subscriptions, and cooperative agreements with third party distributors. Retail-partner based customers are not subject to sales tax. The Retail channel represents 73% and 75% of consolidated revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and 11% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Shipping costs associated with moving finished products to customers through third party carriers were less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and no shipping costs were recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. Such shipping costs are recorded as part of general and administrative expenses.

Direct to consumer channel

The Company’s DTC products are offered through online stores where customers place orders directly for delivery across the United States. The DTC channel represents 27% and 25% of consolidated revenue of the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and 89% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

The Company excludes sales taxes collected from revenues. Revenue is deferred for orders that have been paid for, but not shipped. Based on historical experience, the Company records an estimated liability for returns. Product returns were $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Shipping costs associated with moving finished products to customers were $0.3 million and $0.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $0.6 million and $1.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. Such shipping costs are recorded as part of general and administrative expenses.

The Company’s DTC loyalty program enables customers to accumulate points based on spending. A portion of revenue is deferred at the time of the sale when points are earned and recognized when the loyalty points are redeemed. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, customers held unredeemed loyalty program awards of $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The Company recognized revenue of $0.1 million and $0.3 million from the loyalty program for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.

Note 9 – Intangible assets, royalties, and goodwill Intangible assets and royalties

The Company’s intangible assets as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 consist of customer relationships and trade name acquired in the Halo Acquisition. The customer relationships and trade name are amortized over their estimated useful lives of 7 and 15 years respectively, using the straight-line method.

In May 2019, the Company acquired a licensing agreement with Authentic Brands and Elvis Presley Enterprises (“ABG”) whereby Better Choice was to sell newly developed hemp-derived CBD products that will be marketed under the Elvis Presley Houndog name. The license agreement required an upfront equity payment of $1.0 million worth of common stock and the license was recorded at its amortized cost which approximated fair value. The Company does not plan to use the license in the future and therefore terminated the agreement on January 13, 2020. The Company recognized an impairment charge for the net book value of the licensing agreement as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019.

As part of the termination, the Company: (1) paid ABG $0.1 million in cash upon the signing of the termination agreement on January 13, 2020, (2) issued ABG 72,720 shares of the Company’s common stock on January 13, 2020, (3) agreed to pay ABG $0.1 million in cash in four equal installments each month from July 31, 2020 through October 31, 2020, (4) issued ABG $0.6 million aggregate principal amount of Subordinated Promissory Notes (the “ABG Notes”) effective January 20, 2020, and (5) issued ABG a common stock purchase warrant (the “ABG Warrants”) equal to a fair value of $150,000 on January 20, 2020. The terms of the ABG Notes match those of the Seller Notes, including convertible features exercisable any time after the date of issuance, a 10% interest rate and maturity date of June 30, 2023. The ABG Warrants are exercisable for 24 months from the date of the consummation of an IPO (as defined in the ABG Warrants) and carried an initial exercise price equal to the greater of (i) $5.00 per share or (ii) the price at which the common stock was sold in the IPO. The fair values of the ABG Notes and ABG Warrants on their issuance dates were $0.6 million and less than $0.1 million, respectively. On June 24, 2020, the exercise price of the ABG Warrants was amended in connection with the issuance of the June 2020 Notes (defined below) to lower the maximum exercise price from $5.00 to $4.25 per share.

The total cost of the contract termination noted above is measured at its fair value of $1.1 million and is included in general and administrative expense.

Short term loan and line of credit

On the Halo Acquisition Date, the Company entered into a Loan Facilities Agreement (the “Facilities Agreement”) by and among the Company, as the borrower, the several lenders from time to time parties thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”) and a private debt lender, as agent (the “Agent”). The Facilities Agreement provides for (i) a term loan facility of $20.5 million and (ii) a revolving demand loan facility not to exceed $7.5 million.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the term loan outstanding was $18.2 million and $16.1 million, net of debt issuance costs and discounts of $2.3 million and $4.4 million, respectively, and the line of credit outstanding was $5.7 million and $4.8 million, respectively, net of debt issuance costs of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The debt issuance costs and discounts are amortized using the effective interest method. The term loan and line of credit are scheduled to mature on December 19, 2020 or such earlier date on which a demand is made by the Agent or any Lender.

Certain directors and shareholders of the Company (“Shareholder Guarantors”) agreed to enter into a Continuing Guaranty (the “Shareholder Guaranties”) in the amount of $20.0 million and guarantee the Company’s obligations under the agreement. As consideration for the Shareholder Guaranties, the Company agreed to issue common stock purchase warrants to the Shareholder Guarantors in an amount equal to 0.325 warrants for each dollar of debt under the agreement guaranteed by such Shareholder Guarantors (the “Guarantor Warrants”). The Guarantor Warrants are exercisable any time from the date of issuance for up to 24 months from the date of the consummation of an IPO (as defined therein) at an exercise price $1.82 per share. The Guarantor Warrants had a fair value of $4.2 million on the date of issuance.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants.

Notes payable

On November 4, 2019, the Company issued $2.8 million of subordinated convertible notes (the “November 2019 Notes”) which carry a 10% interest rate and mature on November 4, 2021. The interest is payable in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year.

The November 2019 Notes were amended on January 6, 2020. The amendment incorporates only the preferable terms of the Seller Notes as noted below, and all other terms and provisions of the November 2019 Notes remain in full force and effect. Pursuant to the amended November 2019 Notes, PIK interest shall be payable by increasing the aggregate principal amount of the November 2019 Notes. As amended, for so long as any event of default (as defined in the November 2019 Note) exists, interest shall accrue on the November 2019 Note principal at the default interest rate of 12.0% per annum, and such accrued interest shall be immediately due and payable.

The November 2019 Notes were amended for the second time on June 24, 2020 in connection with the issuance of the June 2020 Notes. The amendment lowers the maximum conversion price applicable to the conversion of these notes from $4.00 per share to $3.75 per share and extends the maturity date from November 4, 2021 to June 30, 2023. Under the applicable accounting guidance, the Company accounted for the change in conversion price as a modification of the debt instrument. The Company recognized the increase in the fair value of the conversion option of $0.3 million as a reduction to the carrying amount of the debt instrument by increasing the associated debt discount with a corresponding increase in additional paid-in capital.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the aggregate amount of November 2019 Notes outstanding was $2.6 million and $2.8 million, respectively, net of discounts of less than $0.3 million and less than $0.1 million, respectively.

As of December 31, 2019, the Senior Seller Notes outstanding were $9.2 million, net of discounts of $0.9 million, and the Junior Seller Notes outstanding were $4.4 million, net of discounts of $0.5 million. The discounts are being amortized over the life of the Seller Notes using the effective interest method.

On January 13, 2020, the Company issued $0.6 million in senior subordinated convertible notes to ABG. The ABG Notes are exercisable any time from the date of issuance and carry a 10% interest rate and mature on June 30, 2023.

The ABG Notes were amended on June 24, 2020 in connection with the issuance of the June 2020 Notes. The amendment lowers the maximum conversion price applicable to the conversion of these notes from $4.00 per share to $3.75 per share. The Company accounted for the change in the conversion price as a modification of the debt instrument. The Company recognized the increase in the fair value of the conversion option of less than $0.1 million as a reduction to the carrying amount of the debt instrument by decreasing the associated debt premium with a corresponding increase in additional paid-in capital.

Table of Contents

As of June 30, 2020, the ABG Notes outstanding was $0.7 million, including a debt premium of less than $0.1 million. The debt premium is being amortized over the life of the ABG Notes using the effective interest method.

On June 24, 2020, the Company issued $1.5 million in subordinated convertible promissory notes (the “June 2020 Notes”) which carry a 10% interest rate and mature on June 30, 2023. The interest is payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. PIK interest is payable by increasing the aggregate principal amount of the June 2020 Notes. The June 2020 Notes are exercisable any time from the date of issuance and carry a conversion price $0.75 per share. The June 2020 Notes are also convertible automatically upon the Company’s consummation of an initial public offering or change in control (each as defined in the June 2020 Notes).

The Company evaluated the conversion option within the June 2020 Notes to determine whether the conversion price was beneficial to the note holders. The Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) related to the issuance of the June 2020 Notes. The BCF for the June 2020 Notes was recognized and measured by allocating a portion of the proceeds to beneficial conversion feature, based on relative fair value, and as a reduction to the carrying amount of the convertible instrument equal to the intrinsic value of the conversion feature. The Company will accrete the discount recorded in connection with the BCF valuation as interest expense over the term of the June 2020 Notes, using the effective interest rate method.

As of June 30, 2020, the amount outstanding on the June 2020 Notes was $0.0 million, net of discounts of $1.5 million. The discounts are being amortized over the life of the June 2020 Notes using the effective interest method.

The exercise, conversion or exchange of convertible securities, including for other securities, will dilute the percentage ownership of the Company’s stockholders. The dilutive effect of the exercise or conversion of these securities may adversely affect the Company’s ability to obtain additional capital.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all covenant requirements and there were no events of default. All notes payable are subordinated to the short term loan and line of credit.

The carrying amounts of these debt instruments approximate fair value which is based on observable inputs, including quoted and market prices (Level 2).

The carrying amount of the Company’s short term loan approximates fair value due to its short term nature. The carrying amount for the Company’s line of credit approximates fair value as the instrument has a variable interest rate that approximates market rates.

Note 11 – Warrant derivative liability

On December 12, 2018, the Company closed a private placement offering (the “December Offering”) of 1,425,641 units (the “Units”), each unit consisting of (i) one share of the Company’s common stock and (ii) a warrant to purchase one half of a share of common stock. The Units were offered at a fixed price of $1.95 per Unit for gross proceeds of $2.8 million. Costs associated with the December Offering were $0.1 million, and net proceeds were $2.7 million. The December Offering generated $2.6 million of net proceeds that were received by the Company during the year ended December 31, 2018 for the sale of 1,400,000 Units, and $0.1 million of the net proceeds were received on January 8, 2019 for the sale of 25,641 Units. The warrants are exercisable anytime from the date of issuance over a two-year period and carried an initial exercise price of $3.90 per share.

The warrants include an option to settle in cash in the event of a change of control of the Company and a reset feature if the Company issues shares of common stock with a strike price below the exercise price of the warrants, which requires the Company to record the warrants as a derivative liability. The Company calculates the fair value of the derivative liability through a Monte Carlo Model that values the warrants based upon a probability weighted discounted cash flow model.

During January 2020, the Company issued shares below the exercise price of the warrants acquired on May 6, 2019. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, the Company issued an additional 1,003,232 warrants on March 17, 2020 to certain of its warrant holders at an exercise price of $1.62 and modified the exercise price of the existing warrants to

$1.62.

During June 2020, the Company issued common stock equivalents below the exercise price of the warrants issued on March 17, 2020. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, the Company will issue an additional 1,990,624 warrants to certain of its warrant holders at an exercise price of $0.75 and will modify the exercise price of the existing warrants to $0.75.

The warrants are valued based on future assumptions and, as the reset triggers were known events on June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company included the triggers in the valuations performed as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

The following schedule shows the fair value of the warrant derivative liability as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and the change in fair value during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020:

Dollars in thousands	Warrant derivative liability
Balance as of December 31, 2019	$	2,220
Change in fair value of derivative liability		(1,379	)
Balance as of March 31, 2020	$	841
Change in fair value of derivative liability		3,474
Balance as of June 30, 2020	$	4,315

Warrant derivative liability	May 6, 2019			December 31, 2019			June 30, 2020
Stock price	$	6.00		$	2.70		$	1.90
Exercise price	$	3.90		$	1.62		$	0.75
Expected remaining term (in years)		1.60 - 1.68			0.95 - 1.02			0.472
Volatility		64	%		69	%		85	%
Risk-free interest rate		2.39	%		1.60	%		0.18	%

The valuation of the warrants is subject to uncertainty as a result of the unobservable inputs. If the volatility rate or risk-free interest rate were to change, the value of the warrants would be impacted.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company would be required to pay $4.4 million if all warrants were settled in cash or issue 3,706,679 shares if all warrants were settled in shares.

Net proceeds of $15.7 million were received in the private placement, allocable between shares of common stock and warrants.

On May 6, 2019, the Company acquired 2,633,678 outstanding shares of Series E, which represented an element of the purchase price and were recorded at fair value (on an as converted into common stock basis) based on the $6.00 per share closing price of Better Choice Company’s shares of common stock as they remained outstanding after the reverse acquisitions discussed in “Note 2 - Acquisitions” above. The Series E has a stated value of $0.99 per share; is convertible to common stock at a price of $0.78 per share.

On May 10, 2019 and May 13, 2019, holders of the Company’s Series E converted 689,394 and 236,364 preferred shares into 875,000 and 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively.

On June 1, 2020, the Company entered into a termination agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) with the advisor. Pursuant to the terms of the Termination Agreement, the Tranche 1 Warrants were amended to reduce the number of shares of common stock purchasable thereunder to 1,041,666 shares, and the Tranche 2 Warrants and Tranche 3 Warrants were cancelled. The Tranche 1 Warrants (as amended pursuant to the Termination Agreement) were fully vested as of the date of the termination of the agreement and will remain exercisable until September 17, 2029. Furthermore, if the Company engages in any restricted business line as defined in the Termination Agreement, the Company will issue to the former advisor additional shares of common stock based on formulas intended to compensate the former advisor for the warrants that were reduced or terminated.

Table of Contents

Notes payable

Note 17 - Income taxes

For the periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded no current or deferred income tax expense.

The Company’s effective tax rate of 0% differs from the United States federal statutory rate of 21% primarily because the Company’s losses have been fully offset by a valuation allowance due to uncertainty of realizing the tax benefit of net operating losses (“NOLs”) for the periods ended June 30, 2020 and year ended December 31, 2019.

The Company’s deferred tax assets attributed to net operating loss carryforwards begin to expire in 2027.

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The CARES Act, among other things, includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferment of employer side social security payments, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. The Company continues to examine the impact that the CARES Act may have on its business but does not expect the impact to be material.

The ultimate realization of deferred taxes is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. On the basis of management’s assessment, a valuation allowance equal to the net deferred tax assets was recorded since it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company has no accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain income tax positions. The Company does not anticipate that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company does not have any significant uncertain tax positions. If incurred, the Company would classify interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as income tax expense.

The Company’s income tax returns generally remain open for examination for three years from the date filed with each taxing jurisdiction.

For the period ended May 6, 2019, the Company was a limited liability company, taxed as a partnership. Thus, all of the Company’s income and losses flowed through to the owners. The company converted to a C-corporation, subject to income tax on May 6, 2019, the date of the May Acquisitions.

Note 18 - Major suppliers

The Company sourced approximately 77% of its inventory purchases from three vendors for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company sourced approximately 83% of its inventory purchases from one vendor for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Note 19 - Concentration of credit risk and off-balance sheet risk

Cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were deposited in accounts at several financial institutions. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with high-quality, accredited financial institutions and, accordingly, such funds are subject to minimal credit risk.

The Company has no significant off-balance sheet concentrations of credit risk, such as foreign currency exchange contracts, option contracts, or other hedging arrangements. Accounts receivable from two customers represented 71% of accounts receivable as of June 30, 2020. Accounts receivable from one customer represented 44% of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2019.

Note 20 - Net loss per share

Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is presented using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the amount the employee must pay for exercising stock options and the amount of compensation cost for future service that has not yet been recognized are collectively assumed to be used to repurchase shares.

Basic and diluted net loss per share is calculated by dividing net and comprehensive loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average shares outstanding during the period. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company’s basic and diluted net and comprehensive loss per share attributable to common stockholders are the same, because the Company has generated a net loss to common stockholders and common stock equivalents are excluded from diluted net loss per share as they have an antidilutive impact.

The following table sets forth basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion includes forward-looking statements about our business, financial condition and results of operations, including discussions about management’s expectations for our business. The financial condition, results of operations and cash flows discussed in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are those of Better Choice Company Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, collectively, the “Company,” “Better Choice,” “we,” “our,” or “us”. These statements represent projections, beliefs, and expectations based on current circumstances and conditions and in light of recent events and trends, and you should not construe these statements either as assurances of performance or as promises of a given course of action. Instead, various known and unknown factors are likely to cause our actual performance and management’s actions to vary, and the results of these variances may be both material and adverse. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s analysis only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Overview and Outlook

Better Choice Company is a rapidly growing animal health and wellness company committed to leading the industry shift toward pet products and services that help dogs and cats live heathier, happier and longer lives. We take an alternative, nutrition-based approach to animal health relative to conventional dog and cat food offerings and position our portfolio of brands to benefit from the mainstream trends of growing pet humanization and consumer focus on health and wellness. We have a demonstrated, multi-decade track record of success selling trusted animal health and wellness products and leverage our established digital footprint to provide pet parents with the knowledge to make informed decision about their pet’s health. We sell the majority of our dog food, cat food and treats under the Halo and TruDog brands, which are focused, respectively, on providing sustainably sourced kibble and canned food derived from real whole meat, and minimally processed raw-diet dog food and treats.

Our diverse product offering has enabled us to penetrate multiple channels of trade, which we believe provides us with broad demographic exposure and appeal. We group these channels of trade into two distinct categories: retail- partner based (“Retail”), which includes the sale of product to e-commerce retailers, pet specialty chains, grocery, mass and distributors, and direct to consumer (“DTC”), which is focused on driving consumers to directly purchase product through our online web platform. With regard to our channels of trade, the online purchase of pet food continues to take market share from brick and mortar retail, with Packaged Facts reporting internet shopping growing from 7% of U.S. pet product sales in 2015 to 22% in 2019. We believe that the trend toward online shopping will continue, and we will continue to reach a growing base of diverse customers through our DTC and e- commerce partner channels. Because our DTC strategy leverages one-on-one customer relationships and utilizes a targeted, data-driven approach to reach customers, we can gather valuable market and consumer behavior data that will allow our brands to be more competitive in the Retail channel. Conversely, we believe Halo’s long-established relationships with key Retail customers will enable us to more effectively launch additional brands in the rapidly evolving retail environment. In addition, Halo has successfully launched into high growth markets in Asia. We intend to build on that success by expanding our products consumer reach through online marketplaces in these markets based on the DTC team experience.

Our marketing strategy is designed to educate consumers about the benefits of our portfolio and build awareness of our products. We deploy a broad set of marketing tools across media, mail and public relations to reach consumers through multiple touch points. Our marketing initiatives include the use of social marketing, social influence marketing, direct response marketing, inbound marketing, email marketing, Search Engine Optimization, Search Engine Marketing, radio, paid media (Facebook, Instagram & YouTube), affiliate marketing, and content marketing, among other proven strategies to generate and convert sales prospects into loyal, satisfied customers. In addition to directly targeting and educating consumers of our products, we partner with a number of online retailers such as Amazon, Chewy, PetSmart and Petco to develop joint sales and marketing initiatives to increase sales and acquire new customers.

Table of Contents

Our established supply and distribution infrastructure allow us to develop, manufacture and commercialize new products generally in under 12 weeks. We will continue to deliver innovation to expand our product offerings and improve the health and well-being of pets. We leverage our proprietary behavioral database, customer feedback and analytics capabilities to derive valuable insights and launch new products. We recently launched a line extension of our Halo brand to offer vegan alternatives for our customers. In addition to our domestic capabilities, we have partnered with a leading Israeli research and development center, Cannasoul, to create a portfolio of indication- specific intellectual property focused on hemp-derived CBD formulations.

Our experienced management and board members have an established track record across the retail, consumer packaged goods, pet health and wellness industries, and they share a common vision to build the premier provider of health and wellness pet products.

The impact that COVID-19 will have on our consolidated results of operations is uncertain. As of July 2020, we have not seen a material decline in sales. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of COVID-19’s impact to our business, consolidated results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and our results presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future periods in 2020 or the full fiscal year.

Management cannot predict the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our sourcing, manufacturing and distribution of our products or to economic conditions generally, including the effects on consumer spending. The ultimate extent of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company is highly uncertain and will depend on future developments, and such effects could exist for an extended period of time even after the pandemic might end.

Fiscal Year End

On May 21, 2019, our board of directors approved a change in fiscal year end from August 31 to December 31 to align with the TruPet fiscal year end. The fiscal year change became effective with our 2019 fiscal year, which begins January 1, 2019 and ends December 31, 2019. Following its acquisition by us, Halo has adopted the same fiscal year end.

Components of Our Results of Operations

Net Sales

We sell pet food and related items, including private branded freeze dried and dehydrated raw foods, supplements, dental care products for dogs, and treats and accessories for dogs, cats, and pet parents. We sell our products through pet specialty retailers, online retailers, our online portal directly to our consumers and through retail partners in Asia. We have a deep portfolio of premium animal health and wellness products for dogs and cats sold under the Halo, TruDog, TruGold, Rawgo! and Orapup brand names across multiple forms and classes, including foods, treats, toppers, dental products, chews, tinctures, grooming products and supplements.

Key factors that affect our future sales growth include: our continued expansion in Retail and other specialty channels, international expansion and our new product introduction. We recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods. We have two categories of revenue channels: Retail, which includes the sale of product to e-commerce retailers, pet specialty chains, grocery, mass and distributors, and DTC, which is focused on driving consumers to directly purchase product through our online web platform.

A significant portion of our revenue is derived from the DTC channel which represents 25% of consolidated revenue; the Retail channel represents 75% of consolidated revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The majority of these sales transactions are single performance obligations that are recorded when control is transferred to the customer. DTC revenue is recognized at the time the order is shipped to the DTC customers. For the majority of Retail customers, we recognize revenue when the product is shipped from our distribution centers, when control transfers. For the remaining customers, we defer revenue based on average shipping times to those customers. We record a revenue reserve based on past return rates to account for customer returns.

For our DTC loyalty program, a portion of revenue is deferred at the time of the sale as points are earned based on the relative stand-alone selling price, and not recognized until the redemption of the loyalty points, which do not expire. We have applied a redemption rate based on historical experience.

Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit

Our products are manufactured to our specifications by contracted manufacturing plants using raw materials sourced by our contracted manufacturers. We design our packaging in-house for manufacture by third parties, and packaging is shipped directly to contracted manufacturing plants. We work with our co-manufacturers to secure a supply of raw materials that meet our specifications, such as USA farm-raised beef, GAP 2 certified cage-free whole chicken and associated broths, GAP 2 certified cage-free whole turkey and associated broths, MSC certified wild-caught salmon and MSC certified wild-caught whitefish and associated broths, and select non-GMO fruits and vegetables, such as peas, sweet potatoes and lentils. In addition to procuring raw materials that meet our formulation requirements, our contract manufacturers manufacture, test and package our products. In addition, we intend to directly source the hemp derived CBD oils used in our products from select suppliers to ensure product quality and traceability of the ingredient. CBD oils are shipped to our warehouse and forwarded to our contracted manufacturing partners as needed for production.

Cost of goods sold consists primarily of the cost of product obtained from third-party contract manufacturing plants, packaging materials, CBD oils directly sourced by us, inventory freight for shipping product from third-party contract manufacturing plants to our warehouse and third party fulfillment and royalties. We review inventory on hand periodically to identify damages, slow moving inventory, and/or aged inventory. Based on the analysis, we record inventories at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with any reduction in value expensed as cost of goods sold.

We calculate gross profit as net sales, including any shipping revenue collected from our customers, less cost of goods sold. Our gross profit has been and will continue to be affected by a variety of factors, primarily product sales mix including the addition of Halo branded products, volumes sold, discounts offered to Retail customers and our TLC club members, discounts offered to newly acquired and recurring customers, the cost of our manufactured products, and the cost of freight from the manufacturer to our warehouse. Changes in cost of goods sold and gross profit may be driven by the volume and price of our sales, including the extent of discounts offered, variations in the cost of raw materials and the price we pay for our manufactured products and variations in our freight costs.

Operating Expenses

General and administrative expenses include management and office personnel compensation and bonuses, share- based compensation, corporate level information technology related costs, rent, travel, professional service fees, costs related to merchant credit card fees, insurance, product development costs, shipping DTC orders to customers and general corporate expenses.

Sales and marketing expenses include costs related to compensation for sales personnel, other costs related to the selling platform, as well as marketing, including paid media and content creation expenses. Marketing expenses consist primarily of Facebook and other media ads, and other advertising and marketing costs, all geared towards acquiring new customers and building brand awareness.

Customer service and warehousing costs include the cost of our customer service department, including our in-house call center, and costs associated with warehouse operations, including but not limited to payroll, rent, and warehouse management systems.

Interest Expense

On November 4, 2019 and December 19, 2019, we issued $2.8 million and $15.0 million, respectively, in aggregate principal amount of subordinated convertible notes. These notes accrue interest payable in kind until maturity or conversion to equity.

On December 19, 2019, we entered into a loan facilities agreement with a private debt lender (the “Facilities Agreement”) that provided for a short term loan facility of $20.5 million and a revolving line of credit not to exceed $7.5 million. The short term loan and revolving line of credit are scheduled to mature on December 19, 2020 or such earlier date on which a demand is made by the agent or any lender.

Table of Contents

On January 13, 2020, we issued $0.6 million in senior subordinated convertible notes to ABG. These notes accrue interest payable in kind until maturity or conversion to equity.

On June 24, 2020, we issued $1.5 million in subordinated convertible promissory notes. These notes accrue interest payable in kind until maturity or conversion to equity.

Income Taxes

Our income tax provision consists of an estimate of federal and state income taxes based on enacted federal and state tax rates, as adjusted for any allowable credits, deductions and uncertain tax positions as they arise. We did not record income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 due to the continued losses incurred by us. Prior to the May Acquisitions, TruPet was a limited liability company.

Net sales include $15.9 million from Halo for the six months ended June 30, 2020 following the closing of the Halo Acquisition in December 2019.

These increases were offset by a comparable decrease in cost of goods sold related to the decrease in TruPet sales.

Table of Contents

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, gross profit increased $4.7 million, or 133%, to $8.3 million compared to $3.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Better Choice general and administrative expenses accounted for the remaining increase, driven by warrant expense ($10.0 million), consulting and other professional fees ($0.7 million) and salaries and wages and related costs ($1.4 million) as we continued building the infrastructure to support our status as a public company and the expansion of our corporate staff.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, share-based compensation increased $1.3 million, or 31%, to $5.5 million, as compared to share based compensation of $4.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was driven by $1.0 million related to a catch up of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense, $0.9 million of add-on warrants issued to two nonemployee directors, and $0.5 million related to restricted shares issued to three nonemployee directors, partially offset by the acceleration of vesting of option awards in connection with the May Acquisitions in the prior year period.

Income Taxes

No provision has been made for federal and state income taxes prior to the date of the May Acquisitions as the proportionate share of TruPet’s income or loss was included in the personal tax returns of its members as TruPet was a limited liability company. Subsequent to the acquisitions, we, as a corporation are required to provide for income taxes.

Table of Contents

The effective tax rate subsequent to the acquisitions is 0%. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 21% as our reported losses are offset by a valuation allowance due to uncertainty as to the realization of those losses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since our founding, we have financed our operations primarily through sales of member units while a limited liability company, sales of shares of our common stock and warrants since becoming a corporation, preferred stock and loans.

We are subject to risks common in the pet wellness consumer market including, but not limited to, dependence on key personnel, competitive forces, successful marketing and sale of its products, the successful protection of its proprietary technologies, ability to grow into new markets, and compliance with government regulations. In late 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) began to spread globally. Uncertainties regarding the economic impact of COVID-19 are likely to result in sustained market turmoil, which could negatively impact our business, financial condition, and cash flows.

We have incurred losses over the last three years and has an accumulated deficit. We expect to continue to generate operating losses and consume significant cash resources for the foreseeable future. Without additional financing, these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, meaning that we may be unable to continue operations for the foreseeable future or realize assets and discharge liabilities in the ordinary course of operations. We are implementing plans to achieve cost savings and other strategic objectives to address these conditions. We expect cost savings from consolidation of third-party manufacturers, optimizing shipping and warehousing as well as overhead cost reductions. The business is focused on growing the most profitable channels while reducing investments in areas that are expected to have lower long-term benefits.

If we seek additional financing to fund our business activities in the future and there remains doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, investors or other financing sources may be unwilling to provide additional funding on commercially reasonable terms or at all. If we are unable to raise the necessary funds when needed or achieve planned cost savings, or other strategic objectives are not achieved, we may not be able to continue our operations, or we could be required to modify our operations that could slow future growth. The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and payments of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Accordingly, the interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount of and classification of liabilities that may result should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
