F- 4 COFFEE HOLDING CO., INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) Note 1 - Business Activities Coffee Holding Co., Inc. (the “Company”) conducts wholesale coffee operations, including manufacturing, roasting, packaging, marketing and distributing roasted and blended coffees for private labeled accounts and its own brands, and it sells green coffee. The Company also manufactures and sells coffee roasters. The Company’s core product, coffee, can be summarized and divided into three product categories (“product lines”) as follows: Wholesale Green Coffee: unroasted raw beans imported from around the world and sold to large and small roasters and coffee shop operators; Private Label Coffee: coffee roasted, blended, packaged and sold under the specifications and names of others, including supermarkets that want to have their own brand name on coffee to compete with national brands; and, Branded Coffee: coffee roasted and blended to the Company’s own specifications and packaged and sold under the Company’s eight proprietary and licensed brand names in different segments of the market. The Company’s private label and branded coffee sales are primarily to customers that are located throughout the United States with limited sales in Canada and certain countries in Asia. Such customers include supermarkets, wholesalers, and individually-owned and multi-unit retailers. The Company’s unprocessed green coffee, which includes over 90 specialty coffee offerings, is sold primarily to specialty gourmet roasters and to coffee shop operators in the United States with limited sales in Australia, Canada, England and China. The Company’s wholesale green, private label, and branded coffee product categories generate revenues and cost of sales individually but incur selling, general and administrative expenses in the aggregate. There are no individual product managers and discrete financial information is not available for any of the product lines. The Company’s product portfolio is used in one business and it operates and competes in one business activity and economic environment. In addition, the three product lines share customers, manufacturing resources, sales channels, and marketing support. Thus, the Company considers the three product lines to be one single reporting segment. Going Concern and Liquidity The Company’s line of credit will be due June 29, 2025 (see Note 6). The agreement requires the Company to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants computed on a quarterly and annual basis. As of January 31, 2025, the Company is in compliance with those financial covenants. The Company has net income for the three months ended January 31, 2025 of $ 1,153,256 and a net working capital surplus of $ 22,386,733 . As a result, the Company does not believe that substantial doubt is raised regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and the ability to meet its obligations as they become due within the twelve months from the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. F- 5 COFFEE HOLDING CO., INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policy The Company’s fiscal year ends on October 31 of each calendar year. The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared on substantially the same basis as its annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024. In the opinion of the Company’s management, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of its financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The October 31, 2024 year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data in this document was derived from audited consolidated financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q does not include all disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended October 31, 2024 and notes thereto included in the Company’s fiscal 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on January 31, 2025 (the “2024 10-K”). The results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods included in these condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or the entire fiscal year. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Company’s subsidiaries, Organic Products Trading Company, LLC (“OPTCO”), Sonofresco, LLC (“SONO”), Comfort Foods, Inc, and Second Empire, LLC (“Second Empire”). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and comply with SEC reporting requirements. Significant Accounting Policies The significant accounting policies used in the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are disclosed in the Company’s 2024 10-K, and there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended January 31, 2025. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the five-step model as prescribed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 (“ASC 606”) in which the Company evaluates the transfer of promised goods or services and recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for the arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The following table presents revenues by product line for the three months ended January 31, 2025 and 2024: Schedule of Revenue Three Months Ended January 31, 2025 2024 Green $ 8,893,954 $ 7,479,202 Packaged 12,411,331 12,061,200 Totals $ 21,305,285 $ 19,540,402 Revenues $ 21,305,285 $ 19,540,402 F- 6 COFFEE HOLDING CO., INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) Recent Accounting Pronouncements – Adopted The Company follows the FASB Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326).” This guidance requires entities to use a current expected credit loss impairment model rather than incurred losses. The Company considers factors such as credit quality, age of balances, historical experience and current and future economic conditions that may affect the Company’s expectation of collectability in determining the allowance for credit losses. The standard became effective for the Company on November 1, 2023. The adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting – Improving Reportable Segment Disclosures (Topic 280).” The standard is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant expenses. The standard requires disclosure to include significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), a description of other segment items by reportable segment, and any additional measures of a segment’s profit or loss used by the CODM when deciding how to allocate resources. The standard also requires all annual disclosures currently required by ASC Topic 280 to be included in interim periods. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and requires retrospective application to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, however; it did result in enhanced disclosures. Recent Accounting Pronouncements – Not Yet Adopted In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, “Disclosure Improvements – Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative.” This standard affects a wide variety of Topics in the Codification. The effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” a final standard on improvements to income tax disclosures, The standard requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted and should be applied prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Note 3 – Business Combination On November 6, 2024, the Company (through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Second Empire) purchased the remaining assets of Empire Coffee Company for $ 800,000 in a Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) Chapter 9 sale (the “Second Empire Acquisition”). Operations of Second Empire will include roasting and packing for current Company’s customers as well as customers of Empire Coffee. The results of Second Empire are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The Company has accounted for the Second Empire Acquisition as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the total purchase price was allocated to the acquired identifiable net assets purchased in the Second Empire Acquisition based on assessments of their respective fair values. The provisional fair value estimates of the assets acquired are subject to subsequent adjustments as additional information is obtained during the applicable measurement period. The assets purchased consisted of equipment, accounts receivable and inventories. The Company has determined that no portion of the purchase price is allocated to intangible assets as there were no acquired intangibles that are considered identifiable under ASC 805. In addition, the Company determined that the acquired equipment had no value as it was originally purchased in the mid-1990s and has been fully depreciated for a few years. Based on a fair value assessment, all value has been attributed to tangible assets. Second Empire will operate as a 100 % wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The following tables summarize the fair values of consideration transferred and the fair values of identified assets acquired at the date of acquisition: Schedule of Business Combination Accounts Receivable $ 531,585 Inventory 268,415 Equipment - Total purchase price $ 800,000 The acquired business contributed revenues of $ 727,884 and a loss of $ 280,537 to the Company for the period from November 6, 2024, to January 31, 2025. There were no acquisition costs incurred. In connection with this transaction, the Company entered into a four -year lease with 21 Grace Church Street Realty LLC for the existing property at 21 Grace Church Street, Port Chester, NY 10573 where Empire Coffee Company had its offices and production facility. Note 4 - Inventories Inventories at January 31, 2025 and October 31, 2024 consisted of the following: Schedule of Inventories January 31, 2025 October 31, 2024 Packed coffee $ 1,989,201 $ 2,025,335 Green coffee 10,606,690 11,252,118 Roasters parts 447,454 469,849 Packaging supplies 1,907,398 1,685,682 Totals $ 14,950,743 $ 15,705,984 Inventories $ 14,950,743 $ 15,705,984 F- 7 COFFEE HOLDING CO., INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) Note 5 - Commodities Held by Broker The Company has used, and intends to continue to use in a limited capacity, short term coffee futures and options contracts primarily for the purpose of partially hedging and minimizing the effects of changing green coffee prices and to reduce cost of sales. The commodities held by broker represent the market value of the Company’s trading account, which consists of options and futures contracts for coffee held with a brokerage firm. The Company uses options and futures contracts, which are not designated or qualifying as hedging instruments, to partially hedge the effects of fluctuations in the price of green coffee beans. Options and futures contracts are level 1 investments recognized at fair value in the condensed consolidated financial statements with current recognition of gains and losses on such positions. The Company’s accounting for options and futures contracts may impact earnings volatility in any particular period. The Company records all open contract positions on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value in the due from and due to broker line items and typically do not offset these assets and liabilities. The Company classifies its options and future contracts as trading securities and accordingly, realized and unrealized holding gains and losses are included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as a component of cost of sales. The Company recorded realized and unrealized gains and losses respectively, on these contracts as follows: Schedule of Realized and Unrealized Gains and Losses on Contracts Three Months Ended January 31, 2025 2024 Gross realized gains 1,165,622 $ 567,694 Gross realized losses ( 171,621 ) ( 34,823 ) Unrealized gains (losses), net 742,918 ( 182,836 ) Total 1,736,919 $ 350,035 Gain (Loss) on Investments 1,736,919 $ 350,035 Note 6 - Line of Credit On April 25, 2017, the Company and OPTCO (together with the Company, collectively referred to herein as the “Borrowers”) entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “A&R Loan Agreement”) and Amended and Restated Loan Facility (the “A&R Loan Facility”) with Sterling National Bank (“Sterling”) (later acquired by Webster, which consolidated (i) the financing agreement between the Company and Sterling, dated February 17, 2009, as modified, and (ii) the financing agreement between the Company, as guarantor, OPTCO and Sterling, dated March 10, 2015, amongst other things. On March 17, 2022, the Company reached an agreement for a new loan modification agreement and credit facility which extended the maturity date to June 29, 2022 . The facility was then approved for a two-year extension. All other terms of the A&R Loan Agreement and A&R Loan Facility remained the same. On June 28, 2022, the Company reached an agreement for a new loan modification agreement and credit facility with Webster. The terms of the new agreement, among other things: (i) provided for a new maturity date of June 30, 2024 , and (ii) changed the interest rate per annum to SOFR plus 1.75 % (with such interest rate not to be lower than 3.50 %). All other terms of the A&R Loan Agreement and A&R Loan Facility remained the same. F- 8 COFFEE HOLDING CO., INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) The Company is required to maintain certain financial covenants with respect to the A&R Loan Agreement. The Company was not in compliance with such requirements as of October 31, 2023. The Company received a waiver from the lender on May 24, 2024 for all past defaults. The A&R Loan Agreement was also modified on March 15, 2023 to, among other things: (i) provide for a requirement for subordination agreements, if necessary, (ii) change the terms of transactions with affiliates from a dollar limitation to allowable in the ordinary course of business, and (iii) establish a new covenant for a fixed charge coverage ratio. On June 27, 2024, the Borrowers entered into the Tenth Loan Modification Agreement with Webster which amended the A&R Loan Agreement to, among other things: (i) provide for a new loan maturity date of June 29, 2025 , (ii) provide that the applicable margin requirement for any revolving loan outstanding under the A&R Loan Agreement to 2.25 %, (iii) provide that the maximum facility amount shall be $ 10,000,000 and (iv) to adjust certain definitions and terms related to the borrowing base and leverage ratios applicable to the A&R Loan Agreement. The average interest for the three months ended January 31, 2025 was 6.80 %. Each of the A&R Loan Facility and A&R Loan Agreement contains covenants, subject to certain exceptions, that place annual restrictions on the Borrowers’ operations, including covenants relating to debt restrictions, capital expenditures, indebtedness, minimum deposit restrictions, tangible net worth, net profit, leverage, employee loan restrictions, dividend and repurchase restrictions (common stock and preferred stock), and restrictions on intercompany transactions. The outstanding balance on the Company’s line of credit was $ 2,200,000 and $ 0 as of January 31, 2025, and October 31, 2024, respectively. Note 7 – Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the asset and liability method which requires deferred income tax assets and liabilities to be computed for net operating loss carryforwards and temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The income tax provision or benefit is the tax incurred for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities. As of January 31, 2025 and October 31, 2024, the Company did no t have any unrecognized tax benefits or open tax positions. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. As of January 31, 2025 and October 31, 2024, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties related to income taxes. The Company currently has no federal or state tax examinations in progress. The Company files a U.S. federal income tax return and California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Idaho, Illinois, Kansas, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia state tax returns. The Company’s expense or income taxes for the quarter ended January 31, 2025 and October 31, 2024, consisted of the following: Schedule of Provision (benefit) for Income Tax January 31, 2025 October 31, 2024 Current Federal $ 233,640 $ 82,332 State and local 52,625 18,544 Total 286,265 100,876 Deferred Federal 79,820 611,317 State and local 40,007 137,692 Total 119,827 749,009 Income tax expense $ 406,092 849,885 A reconciliation of the difference between the expected income tax rate using the statutory U.S. federal tax rate and the Company’s effective tax rate is as follows: Schedule of Effective Income Tax Rate January 31, 2025 October 31, 2024 Expense from tax at the federal statutory rate $ 327,464 644,258 Goodwill impairment - Other permanent differences 4,870 23,718 Return to provision - 29,959 Deferred Tax change in effective rate - 6,838 State and local tax, net of federal 73,758 145,112 Expense income taxes $ 406,092 849,885 Effective income tax rate 26 % 28 % Note 8 – Earnings Per Share The Company presents “basic” and “diluted” earnings per common share pursuant to the provisions included in ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share,” and certain other financial accounting pronouncements. Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of common shares issuable upon exercise of potential sources of dilution. The weighted average common shares outstanding used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share were 5,708,599 for the three months ending January 31, 2025, and 2024. The Company has 1,000,000 options outstanding which have not been included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share. F- 9 COFFEE HOLDING CO., INC.

Note 13 – Segment Information ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is Andrew Gordon, President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Director. The Company has one reportable segment: coffee. The Company derives revenue in North America only and manages the business activities on a consolidated basis. The coffee segment derives revenue from the sale of wholesale green coffee, private label coffee and branded coffee. Revenue for these product lines is recognized upon shipment to the customer. The CODM assesses performance for the coffee segment and decides how to allocate resources based on operating income (loss) that also is reported on statement of operations as consolidated income (loss) from operations. The measure of segment assets is reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as total consolidated assets. When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation the CODM reviews the following key metrics: Schedule of Segment Information Statement of operations For the three months ended January 31, 2025 January 31, 2024 Net sales $ 21,305,285 $ 19,540,402 Cost of Goods Sold (1) 17,310,278 16,410,138 Gross Profit 3,995,007 3,130,264 Trading Profit (1) 1,736,919 350,035 Overhead (2) 4,140,895 2,863,388 Operating income $ 1,591,008 $ 616,911 (1) Costs of goods sold and Trading profit is included in cost of sales in the consolidated statement of operations. (2) Overhead includes officers’ salaries and selling and administrative expenses included in the consolidated statement of operations. The CODM uses operating income (loss) to evaluate income generated from segment assets (return on assets) in deciding whether to reinvest profits into the coffee segment or into other parts of the entity such as for acquisitions or to pay dividends. Intra-entity sales and cash transfers are eliminated in operating income (loss) used by the CODM. F- 11
