NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Innovative Food Holdings, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Artisan Specialty Foods, Inc. (“Artisan”), Food Innovations, Inc. (“FII”), Food New Media Group, Inc. (“FNM”), Gourmet Foodservice Group, Inc. (“GFG”),  and 4 The Gourmet, Inc (d/b/a For The Gourmet, Inc.) (“Gourmet” (collectively, the “Company, or “IVFH”), have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  FNM currently holds the Company’s intellectual property rights related to its private label brand.  All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation of these entities.
 
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles pursuant to Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission and with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and related notes as contained in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. In the opinion of management, the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary for fair presentation of the interim periods presented. The results of the operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.
 
2. NATURE OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Business Activity
 
FII is in the business of providing premium foodservice establishments, including white tablecloth restaurants with the freshest origin-specific perishables and specialty food products direct from its network of vendors to the end users (restaurants, hotels, country clubs, national chain accounts, casinos, and catering houses) within 24 - 72 hours. For The Gourmet Inc., through its website www.forthegourmet.com, and through additional sales channels, provides the highest quality gourmet food products to the retail consumer market under the For The Gourmet line.  
 
We currently sell the majority of our products through a distributor relationship between FII and Next Day Gourmet, L.P., a subsidiary of U.S. Foods (“USF”), a $20 Billion broad line distributor.  On May 18, 2012, the Company executed a Stock Purchase Agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Artisan Specialty Foods, Inc., an Illinois corporation (“Artisan”). Artisan was previously a supplier to the Company. Artisan  is a supplier of over 1,500 niche gourmet products to over 500 customers in the Greater Chicago area.
  
 Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates include certain assumptions related to doubtful accounts receivable, stock-based services, valuation of financial instruments, and income taxes. On an on-going basis, we evaluate these estimates, including those related to revenue recognition and concentration of credit risk. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe our estimates have not been materially inaccurate in past years, and our assumptions are not likely to change in the foreseeable future.
 
 
INNOVATIVE FOOD HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2013 (Unaudited)

On August 25, 2005, we entered into contracts which obligated the company under certain circumstances to issue shares of common stock in excess of the number of shares of common stock authorized. Under accounting guidance provided by FASB ASC 815-40-05, from August 25, 2005 through December 27, 2012, we accounted for all derivative financial instruments, including warrants, conversion features embedded in notes payable, and stock options, via the liability method of accounting. Accordingly, all these instruments were valued at issuance utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation method, and were re-valued at each period ending date, also using the Black-Scholes valuation method.  Any gain or loss from revaluation was charged to operations during the period.  On December 27, 2012, we entered into agreements (the “2012 Notes Payable Extension Agreement”) with certain holders of our convertible notes which, among other things, created a minimum conversion price for the principal amount of the notes of $0.05. Under accounting guidance provided by FASB ASC 815-40-05, this resulted in a change in accounting method for our derivative financial instruments to the equity method of accounting.

Significant Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

3.  ACQUISITIONS

Artisan Specialty Foods, Inc.

On May 18, 2012, the Company executed a Stock Purchase Agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Artisan Specialty Foods, Inc., an Illinois corporation (“Artisan”), from its owner, Mr. David Vohaska.  The purchase price was $1.2 million, with up to another $300,000 (with a fair value of $131,000 ) payable in the event certain financial milestones are met by April 30, 2014.    During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company made a payment in the amount of $0 and $37,500 to Mr. Vohaska for the attainment of certain of these financial milestones.  As of June 30, 2013, the Company accrued the payment of $37,500, which is shown on the balance sheet as Contingent purchase price liabilities.

The purchase price was primarily financed via a loan from Alpha Capital Aktiengesselschaft (see note 10) in the principal amount of $1,200,000.  Prior to the acquisition, Artisan was a supplier and had sold products to the Company.

The total purchase price was allocated to Artisan’s net tangible assets, with the residual allocated to intangible assets:

The Haley Group

The Haley Group, LLC is a food manufacture representative that manages the vendor relationships at a food distributor’s corporate level. The Haley Group also provides their suppliers with guidance and assistance as needed at the distributor’s regional and divisional level. The Haley Group provides these services in exchange for a combination of monthly retainers and percentages of future sales of client products.  On November 2, 2012, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Haley Acquisition Agreement”) with Haley Group, LLC whereby the Company acquired all existing contracts between Haley Group and its customers for the following consideration:  300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock; 150,000 shares of which vest immediately and 150,000 shares of which vest in one year under certain conditions;  options to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.44 per share; and $20,000 cash contingent upon the attainment of future revenue milestones. The Haley Acquisition was valued at a total cost of $119,645.  This intangible fair value of the purchase amount was allocated to Haley Group’s customer relationships and capitalized accordingly on the Company’s balance sheet at June 30, 2013 and is being amortized over 3 years. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company charged the amount of $9,970 and $19,941 to operations, respectively, related to the amortization of these intangible assets.

The trade name is not considered a finite-lived asset, and is not being amortized.  The non-compete agreement is being amortized over a period of 48 months.  The customer relationships acquired in the Artisan and Haley transactions are being amortized over a period of 60 and 36 months.
 
As detailed in ASC 350, the Company tests for goodwill impairment in the fourth quarter of each year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value and may not be recoverable.  As detailed in ASC 350-20-35-3A, in performing its testing for goodwill impairment, management has completed a qualitative analysis to determine whether it was more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. To complete this review, management followed the steps in ASC 350-20-35-3C to evaluate the fair values of goodwill and considered all known events and circumstances that might trigger an impairment of goodwill. The analysis completed in  2012, determined that there was no impairment to goodwill assets.

Discount on Notes Payable amortized to interest expense:
  $ 332,617     $ 1,308     $ 637,665     $ 1,308  

The Company calculates the fair value of any beneficial conversion features embedded in its convertible notes via the Black-Scholes valuation method. The Company also calculates the fair value of any detachable warrants offered with its convertible notes via the Black-Scholes valuation method.  The instruments were considered discounts to the notes, to the extent the aggregate value of the warrants and conversion features did not exceed the face value of the notes. These discounts were amortized to interest expense via the effective interest method over the term of the notes.  The fair value of these instruments was charged to interest expense to the extent that the value of these instruments exceeds the face value of the notes.  

The Company revalued the conversion options at each reporting period, and charged any change in value to operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded a loss of $0 and $89,569  respectively, due to the change in value of the conversion option liability. During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded a loss of $0 and $468,004, respectively, due to the change in value of the conversion option liability.

When convertible notes payable are satisfied by payment or by conversion to equity, the Company revalues the related conversion option liability at the time of the payment or conversion.  The conversion option liability is then relieved by this amount, which is charged to additional paid-in capital.  During the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, conversion option liabilities in the amounts of $0 and $0, respectively, were transferred from liability to equity due to the conversion or payment of the related convertible notes payable. During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, conversion option liabilities in the amounts of $0 and $20,046, respectively, were transferred from liability to equity due to the conversion or payment of the related convertible notes payable.

From September 2005 through December 26, 2012, the Company accounted for conversion options embedded in convertible notes in accordance with FASB ASC 815-10-05. ASC 815-10-05 generally requires companies to bifurcate conversion options embedded in convertible notes from their host instruments and to account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC 815-40-05.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Effective December 27, 2012, the Company entered into agreements (the “2012 Notes Payable Extension Agreement”) with certain convertible note holders regarding twenty-five convertible notes in the aggregate amount of $2,037,249  in principal and $719,187  in accrued interest.  Pursuant to the 2012 Notes Payable Extension Agreement, the maturity date of each note and accrued interest was extended to February 1, 2014 (unless the original maturity date is beyond the extended date, in which case the original maturity date will not change); the expiration date of each warrant associated with each of the notes was extended to August 1, 2015 (unless the original expiration date of each warrant was beyond August 1, 2015, in which case the original expiration date will not change); the minimum conversion price of the note and accrued interest, in the case of any adjustment to such price, was set to be $0.05 per share. The Company also agreed that for as long as the convertible notes are held by the existing note holders, it will not issue any common stock or other securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock at a price of less than $0.05 per share.  Accordingly, the conversion option and warrants were reclassified from liability to equity since the conversion and exercise prices were fixed and all other conditions were met to classify the conversion feature and warrants as equity.

The Company revalued its derivative equity instruments at December 27, 2012 using the Black-Scholes valuation method, and recorded losses on revaluation in the amount of $478,822 for the conversion options, $566,063 for the warrants, and $103,248 for stock options. This resulted in liabilities in the amount of $2,088,475 for the value of the warrants, $1,708,528 for the value of the conversion options, and $411,792 for the stock options.  The value of the warrants and conversion options (a total of $3,797,001) was eliminated, and recorded as a gain on extinguishment of debt.  The value of the stock options of $411,792 was eliminated, and recorded as a charge to additional paid-in capital.

Pursuant to debt extinguishment accounting, the Company charged to interest expense the unamortized amount of the discount on the related convertible notes at December 27, 2012 in the amount of $824,286.  Prior to December 27, 2012, the Company had amortized $13,899 of the discount.  At December 27, 2012, the Company recorded a new discount on the convertible notes in the aggregate amount of $1,918,993, which was charged to additional paid-in capital.

At December 27, 2012, the aggregate value of the unamortized discount on the notes payable affected by the 2012 Notes payable Extension Agreement was $830,837 which amount was charged to operations.  The Company recorded new discounts on notes payable in the aggregate amount of $1,918,993, which was recorded as an increase in additional paid-in capital.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company calculated an original issue discount (“OID”) related to the acquisition of Artisan Specialty Foods, Inc. in the amount of $120,000 on a note payable in the total principal amount of $1,200,000.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, this discount was amortized to interest expense in the amount of $2,028 and $3,409, respectively.

At June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company had unamortized discounts to notes payable in the aggregate amount of $1,230,819 and $0, respectively.

INNOVATIVE FOOD HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2013 (Unaudited)

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Included in deferred tax assets are Federal and State net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $3.2 million, which will expire beginning in 2025 through 2029.  The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Due to significant changes in the Company's ownership, the Company's future use of its existing net operating losses may be limited.

Aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable at June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $85,200 and $52,000, respectively.  Aggregate intrinsic value represents the difference between the Company's closing stock price on the last trading day of the fiscal period, which was $0.38 and $0.40 as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and the exercise price multiplied by the number of options outstanding.

During the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company charged $0 and $186,299, respectively, to operations related to recognized stock-based compensation expense for employee stock options. During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company charged $35,662 and $186,299, respectively, to operations related to recognized stock-based compensation expense for employee stock options.  

Accounting for warrants and stock options

In August 2005, the Company’s commitments to issue shares of common stock first exceeded its common stock authorized. At this time, the Company began to value its warrants and stock options via the liability method of accounting. Pursuant to guidance in ASC 718-40 the cost of these options was valued via the Black-Scholes valuation method when issued, and re-valued at each reporting period.  The gain or loss from this revaluation was charged to compensation expense during the period.  On December 27, 2012, the Company entered into the 2012 Notes Payable Extension Agreement with certain holders of its convertible notes which, among other things, created a minimum conversion price for the principal amount of the notes. Under accounting guidance provided by FASB ASC 815-40-05, this resulted in a change in accounting method for our derivative financial instruments to the equity method of accounting. We revalued our derivative liabilities at December 27, 2012, and charged the gain or loss from this revaluation to compensation expense during the period.
 
The Company valued warrants and options using the Black-Scholes valuation model utilizing the following variables:

The safe harbor created by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act will not apply to certain  "forward looking statements” because we issued "penny stock" (as defined in Section 3(a)(51) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 3(a)(51-1) under the Exchange Act) during the three year period preceding the date(s) on which those forward looking statements were first made, except to the extent otherwise specifically provided by rule, regulation or order of the Securities and Exchange Commission. We caution readers that certain important factors may affect our actual results and could cause such results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements which may be deemed to have been made in this Report or which are otherwise made by or on our behalf.  For this purpose, any statements contained in this report that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as "may",  "will", "expect", "believe",  "explore",  "consider",  "anticipate",  "intend", "could", "estimate",  "plan", "propose" or "continue" or the negative variations of those words or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Factors that may affect our results include, but are not limited to, the risks and uncertainties associated with:

Disruption in the economic and financial conditions primarily from the impact of past terrorist attacks in the United States, threats of future attacks, police and military activities overseas and other disruptive worldwide political and economic events and weather conditions.
 
We are also subject to other risks detailed from time to time in our other Securities and Exchange Commission filings and elsewhere in this report. Any one or more of these uncertainties, risks and other influences could materially affect our results of operations and whether forward-looking statements made by us ultimately prove to be accurate.  Our actual results, performance and achievements could differ materially from those expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements.  We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether from new information, future events or otherwise.
 
 
Critical Accounting Policy and Estimates

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates include certain assumptions related to doubtful accounts receivable, stock-based services, valuation of financial instruments, and income taxes. On an on-going basis, we evaluate these estimates, including those related to revenue recognition and concentration of credit risk. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe our estimates have not been materially inaccurate in past years, and our assumptions are not likely to change in the foreseeable future. 

On August 25, 2005, the Company entered into contracts which obligated the Company under certain circumstances to issue shares of common stock in excess of the number of shares of common stock authorized. Under accounting guidance provided by FASB ASC 815-40-05, effective August 25, 2005 the Company began to account for all derivative financial instruments, including warrants, conversion features embedded in notes payable, and stock options, via the liability method of accounting. Accordingly, all these instruments were valued at issuance utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation method, and were re-valued at each period ending date, also using the Black-Scholes valuation method.  Any gain or loss from revaluation was charged to operations during the period.

On December 27, 2012, the Company entered into agreements (the “2012 Notes Payable Extension Agreement”) affecting the terms of certain of its convertible notes payable. One of these changes established a minimum conversion price for these notes of $0.05.  Under accounting guidance provided by FASB ASC 815-40-05, this resulted in a change in accounting method for these instruments from derivative accounting to equity accounting.   The Company revalued these instruments at December 27, 2012 using the Black-Scholes valuation method. Any gain or loss in value was charged to operations.

Background
 
We were initially formed in June 1979 as Alpha Solarco Inc., a Colorado corporation. From June 1979 through February 2003, we were either inactive or involved in discontinued business ventures. In February 2003 we changed our name to Fiber Application Systems Technology, Ltd.
 
In January 2004, we changed our state of incorporation by merging into Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. (“IVFH”), a Florida shell corporation. As a result of the merger we changed our name to that of Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. In February 2004 we also acquired Food Innovations, Inc. (“FII”) a Delaware corporation incorporated on January 9, 2002 and through FII and our other subsidiaries we are in the business of national food distribution and sales using third-party shippers. 
 
 
On May 18, 2012, the Company executed a Stock Purchase Agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Artisan Specialty Foods, Inc., an Illinois corporation (“Artisan”), from its owner, Mr. David Vohaska.  The purchase price was $1.2 million, with up to another $300,000 (with a fair value of $131,000) payable in the event certain financial milestones are met by April 30, 2014.  The purchase price was primarily financed via a loan from Alpha Capital in the principal amount of $1,200,000.  Prior to the acquisition, Artisan was a vendor and had sold products to the Company.

Transactions With a Major Customer
 
Transactions with a major customer and related economic dependence information is set forth (1) following our discussion of Liquidity and Capital Resources, (2) Concentrations of Credit Risk in Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and (3) as the fourth item under Risk Factors.

Relationship with U.S. Foods

In February 2010, one of our subsidiaries, Food Innovations, signed a new contract with U.S. Foods (“USF”).  This contract with USF expired on December 31, 2012.  However, the contract provides that it automatically renews for an additional 12-month term unless either party notifies the other in writing 30 days prior to the end date of its intent not to renew. Inasmuch as neither party gave the requisite notice, the agreement was automatically extended through December 31, 2013.  We believe that although a significant portion of our sales occurs through the USF sales force, the success of the program is less contingent on a contract then on the actual performance and quality of our products. Other than our business arrangements with USF, we are not affiliated with either USF or its subsidiary, Next Day Gourmet, L.P.  During the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, sales to USF accounted for 72% and 80% of total sales, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, sales to USF accounted for 70% and 83% of total sales, respectively.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is a discussion of our financial condition and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

This discussion may contain forward looking-statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our future results could differ materially from the forward looking-statements discussed in this report. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the notes thereto and other financial information included elsewhere in the report.
 
Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2012

Revenue

Revenue increased by $1,166,078, or approximately 27%, to $5,518,949 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 from $4,352,871 in the prior year. $632,775, or approximately 54%, of the increase was attributable to the acquisition of Artisan, while $533,303, or approximately 46%, of the increase was attributable to year-over-year organic growth. 
 
We continue to assess the potential of new revenue sources from the manufacture and sale of proprietary food products and additional sales channel opportunities and will implement that strategy if, based on our analysis, we deem it beneficial to us.

 Any changes in the food distribution operating landscape that materially hinders our current ability and/or cost to deliver our products to our customers could potentially cause a material impact on our net revenue and gross margin and, therefore, our profitability and cash flows could be adversely affected.
 
Currently, a small portion of our revenues comes from imported products or international sales. Our current sales from such segments may be hampered and negatively impacted by any economic tariffs that may be imposed in the United States or in foreign countries.

See "Transactions with Major Customers" and the Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") mandated FR-60 disclosures following the "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section for a further discussion of the significant customer concentrations, loss of significant customer, critical accounting policies and estimates, and other factors that could affect future results.
 
 
Cost of goods sold
 
Our cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $4,031,096, an increase of $870,482 or approximately 27% compared to cost of goods sold of $3,160,614 for the three months ended June 30, 2012. Cost of goods sold is primarily made up of the following expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013: cost of goods of specialty, meat, game, cheese poultry and other sales categories in the amount of $ 3,042,323; and shipping expenses in the amount of $870,832. The cost of goods sold increase is mainly associated with the increase in sales. Total gross margin was approximately 27% of sales in 2013, compared to 27% of sales in 2012.

In 2013, we continued to price our products in order to gain market share and increase the number of our end users. We were successful in both increasing sales and increasing market share.  We currently expect, if market conditions and our product revenue mix remain constant, that our cost of goods sold will either remain stable or likely improve slightly.
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses
 
Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by $86,171  or approximately 8% to $1,208,343 during the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $1,122,172 for the three months ended June 30, 2012. Selling, general and administrative expenses were primarily made up of the following for the three months ended June 30, 2013: payroll and related expenses, including employee benefits, in the amount of $774,230;  amortization and depreciation in the amount of $99,697;   facilities expense in the amount of $89,250; consulting and professional fees in the amount of $78,290; insurance expense in the amount of $58,895; bad debt expense in the amount of $27,104;  travel and entertainment expenses in the amount of $23,941; banking and credit card fees expenses in the amount of $21,965; computer support expenses in the amount of $19,615; and advertising expense in the amount of $3,873.  The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses was primarily due to  the acquisition of The Haley Group and the acquisition of Artisan Specialty Foods which has higher selling general and administrative expenses than Innovative Food Holdings’ historical levels.  We expect our selling, general, and administrative expenses to remain steady or slightly decrease in 2013.
 
 
Interest expense

Interest expense, net of interest income, increased by $319,310 or approximately 606% to $371,992 during the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $52,682 during the three months ended June 20, 2012.  Approximately 11% or $39,376  of the interest expense was accrued or paid interest on the company’s notes payable; approximately 89% or $332,616 of the interest was associated with the  amortization of the discounts on the Company’s notes payable.
 
Loss from change in fair value of warrant liability
 
On December 27, 2012, the Company entered into the 2012 Notes Payable Extension Agreement, which affected the terms of certain of its convertible notes payable.  Under accounting guidance provided by FASB ASC 815-40-05, this resulted in a change in accounting method for the Company’s warrants from derivative accounting to equity accounting. Accordingly, the Company did not revalue these instruments at June 30, 2013.  The Company revalued these instruments at June 30, 2012 using the Black-Scholes valuation method.  This revaluation resulted in a loss of $75,356 which the Company included in operations during the three months ended June 30, 2012.  There was no such comparable gain or loss during the current period.

Accordingly, the Company did not revalue these instruments at June 30, 2013.  The Company revalued these instruments at June 30, 2012 using the Black-Scholes valuation method. This revaluation resulted in a loss of $89,569, which the Company included in operations during the three months ended June 30, 2012.  There was no such comparable gain or loss during the current period.

Cost of warrant extension

During the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company extended the term of warrants to purchase 5,440,000 shares of common stock from April 3, 2012 to April 3, 2015.  The fair value of this extension of $842,100 was charged to operations during the three months ended June 30, 2012.  There was no comparable transaction during the three months ended June 30, 2013.
 
Net Loss
 
For the reasons above, the Company had a net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2013 of $92,482, a decrease of $897,140 compared to a net loss of $989,622 during the three months ended June 30, 2012. 
 
  
Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2012

Revenue
 
Revenue increased by $3,488,092, or approximately 46%, to $11,126,270 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from $7,638,178 in the prior year. $2,036,837, or approximately 58%, of the increase was attributable to the acquisition of Artisan, while $1,451,255, or approximately 42%, of the increase was attributable to year-over-year organic growth. 
 
We continue to assess the potential of new revenue sources from the manufacture and sale of proprietary food products and additional sales channel opportunities and will implement that strategy if, based on our analysis, we deem it beneficial to us.

Cost of goods sold
 
Our cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $8,065,390, an increase of $2,292,794, or approximately 40%, compared to cost of goods sold of 5,772,596 for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Cost of goods sold is primarily made up of the following expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2013: cost of goods of specialty, meat, game, cheese poultry and other sales categories in the amount of $6,110,335; and shipping expenses in the amount of $1,705,117. The cost of goods sold increase is mainly associated with the increase in sales. Total gross margin improved to 27% of sales in 2013, compared to 24% of sales in 2012.

In 2013, we continued to price our products in order to gain market share and increase the number of our end users. We were successful in both increasing sales and increasing market share.  We currently expect, if market conditions and our product revenue mix remain constant, that our cost of goods sold will either remain stable or likely improve slightly.
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses
 
Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by $580,963  or approximately 33% to $2,408,957 during the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $1,781,809 for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Selling, general and administrative expenses were primarily made up of the following for the six months ended Jun 30, 2013: payroll and related expenses, including employee benefits, in the amount of $1,519,705; facilities expense in the amount of $235,524; amortization and depreciation in the amount of $127,685;  insurance expense in the amount of $117,963; consulting and professional fees in the amount of $102,712; bad debt expense in the amount of $87,918; computer support expenses in the amount of $52,129; banking and credit card fees in the amount of $45,581; travel and entertainment expenses in the amount of $42,634; share based compensation in the amount of $35,662;  and advertising expense in the amount of $8,738.  The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses was primarily due to increases in volume, and the acquisition of Artisan Specialty Foods which has higher selling general and administrative expenses than Innovative Food Holdings’ historical levels.  We expect our selling, general, and administrative expenses to remain steady or slightly decrease in 2013.
 
Interest expense

Interest expense, net of interest income, increased by $615,806 or approximately 624% to $714,557 during the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $98,751 during the six months ended June 30, 2012. Approximately 11% or $76,894  of the interest expense was accrued or paid interest on the company’s notes payable; approximately 89% or $637,663 of the interest was associated with the  amortization of the discounts on the Company’s notes payable.
 
 
Loss from change in fair value of warrant liability
 
On December 27, 2012, the Company entered into the 2012 Notes Payable Extension Agreement, which affected the terms of certain of its convertible notes payable.  Under accounting guidance provided by FASB ASC 815-40-05, this resulted in a change in accounting method for the Company’s warrants from derivative accounting to equity accounting. Accordingly, the Company did not revalue these instruments at June 30, 2013.  The Company revalued these instruments at June 30, 2012 using the Black-Scholes valuation method.  This revaluation resulted in a loss of $269,177 which the Company included in operations during the six months ended June 30, 2012.  There was no such comparable gain or loss during the current period.

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company generated cash from operating activities in the amount of $169,724.  This consisted of the Company’s net loss of $(62,634), offset by non-cash charges for the amortization of discount on notes payable of $637,665; depreciation and amortization of $127,686; and non-cash compensation in the amount of $35,662. The Company’s cash position was also reduced by $568,655 as a result of changes in the components of current assets and current liabilities as well as a result of the payment of bonuses owed for 2012.  The acquisition of Artisan had an effect on the components of the Company’s working capital.  The following amounts were associated with Artisan at June 30, 2013: cash of $95,041; accounts receivable of $581,679; inventory of $616,048; other current assets of $8,333; accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $419,295; and current portion of lease payable of $12,084.

The Company had net working deficit of $171,430 as of June 30, 2013.  We have generated positive cash flow from operations during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. In addition, the Company’s auditors removed the going concern qualification to the audit opinion on the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012.   The Company  intends to continue to focus on increasing market share and cash flow from operations by focusing its sales activities on specific market segments and new product lines.  Currently, we do not have any material long-term obligations other than those described in Note 10 to the financial statements included in this report. As we seek to increase our sales of perishables, as well as identify new and other consumer and food service oriented products and services, we may use existing cash reserves, long-term financing, or other means to finance such diversification.
 

If the Company’s cash flow from operations is insufficient, the Company may require additional financing in order to execute its operating plan and continue as a going concern.  The Company cannot predict whether this additional financing will be in the form of equity or debt, or be in another form. The Company may not be able to obtain the necessary additional capital on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all. The Company expects that any sale of additional equity securities or convertible debt will result in additional dilution to our stockholders.

In any of these events, the Company may be unable to implement its current plans for expansion, repay its debt obligations as they become due or respond to competitive pressures, any of which circumstances would have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. The Company has not made any adjustments to the financial statements which would be necessary should the Company not be able to continue as a going concern. 
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues, or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
 
Inflation
 
In the opinion of management, inflation has not had a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of its operations.
