Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
April 30, 2025
Note 1 - Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation
Nature of Operations
Mama's Creations, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”, "we', "us" or "our"), (formerly known as MamaMancini's Holdings, Inc. and Mascot Properties, Inc.) was organized on July 22, 2009 as a Nevada corporation. The Company has a fiscal year-end of January 31.
Our subsidiary, MamaMancini’s Inc. (“MamaMancinis”), is a marketer, manufacturer and distributor of beef and turkey meatballs with sauce, grilled, roasted and breaded chicken; sausage and peppers; and other similar meats and sauces. In addition, the Company continues to diversify its product line by introducing new products such as ready-to-serve meals, single-size pasta and rice bowls, bulk deli, and packaged refrigerated protein products. MamaMancini's products feature many all-natural meals that were submitted to the United States Department of Agriculture (the “USDA”) and approved as all-natural. The USDA defines "all-natural" as a product that contains no artificial ingredients, coloring ingredients or chemical preservatives and is minimally processed.
Our Subsidiary T&L Acquisition Corp. ("T&L") is a premier gourmet food manufacturer based in New York. T&L doing business as T&L Creative Salads and Olive Branch, offers a full line of foods for retail food chains and club stores, delis, bagel stores, caterers and provision distributors. Our Creative Salads brand uses high-quality meats, seafood and vegetables, prepared to meet the standards set forth by the USDA and the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). Our Olive Branch brand concentrates on selling olives, olive mixes, and savory products to large retail customers, primarily in pre-packaged containers.
On June 28, 2022, the Company acquired a 24 % minority interest in Chef Inspirational Foods, LLC (“CIF”), a leading developer, innovator, marketer and sales company selling prepared foods, for an investment of $ 1.2 million. The investment consists of $ 500 thousand in cash and $ 700 thousand in the Company’s common stock. The acquisition of the interest in CIF was accounted for under the equity method of accounting for investments until the Company acquired the remaining interest of CIF. On June 28, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of the remaining 76 % of CIF, in accordance with the terms of the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement dated June 28, 2023 by and among the Company, Siegel Suffolk Family, LLC, and R&I Loeb Family, LLC (the “Sellers”) for approximately $ 3.7 million, including approximately $ 1 million in cash at closing and a $ 2.7 million promissory note (the "CIF Acquisition"). The promissory note required a principal payment of $ 1.2 million in cash on the first anniversary of the closing date (which was made during the year ended January 31, 2025) and requires a payment of $ 1.5 million in common stock of the Company on the second anniversary of the closing date.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Certain amounts in the prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements in an annual report on Form 10-K have been condensed or omitted. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 31, 2025 has been derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures required for audited annual financial statements. For further information, please refer to and read these interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conjunction with the

Table of Contents
Company's audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumption s impact, among other items, the following: allowance for credit losses, the fair value of stock-based compensation, inventory reserves, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, and estimates for unrealized returns, discounts, and other variable considerations that are netted against revenue.
Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from our estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company operates in an industry that is subject to intense competition and changes in consumer demand. The Company’s operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial and operational risks and the potential risk of business failure.
The Company has experienced, and in the future expects to continue to experience, variability in sales and earnings. The factors expected to contribute to this variability include, among others, (i) the cyclical nature of the grocery industry, (ii) general economic conditions in the various local markets in which the Company competes, including a potential general downturn in the economy, and (iii) the volatility of prices pertaining to food and beverages in connection with the Company’s distribution of the product. These factors, among others, make it difficult to project the Company’s operating results on a consistent basis.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The majority of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held at one financial institution, which at April 30, 2025, exceeded insured amounts by approximately $ 11.0 million. The Company believes it mitigates such risk by having this cash and cash equivalents held by a major financial institution.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. The Company generally does not require collateral to support customer receivables. Estimated product returns are immaterial. Management assesses the collectability of outstanding customer invoices and maintains an allowance resulting from the expected non-collection of customer receivables. In estimating this allowance for credit losses, management considers factors such as historical collection experience, customer creditworthiness, specific customer risk, and current and expected general economic conditions. Customer balances are written off after all collection efforts are exhausted. The allowance for credit losses was approximately $ 93 thousand as of April 30, 2025 and January 31, 2025. During the three months ended April 30, 2025 and April 30, 2024, the Company did not write off any accounts deemed uncollectible.
Inventories
The Company values its inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value (“NRV”). NRV is defined as estimated selling prices less costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The cost of inventory is determined on the first-in, first-out basis. The cost of finished goods inventories includes ingredients, direct labor, freight-in for ingredients, and indirect production and overhead costs. The Company monitors its inventory to identify excess or obsolete items on hand. The Company reviews inventory quantities on hand and records a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on selling prices, indications from customers based upon current price negotiations, and purchase orders. In addition, and as necessary, specific reserves for future known or anticipated events may be established. As of April 30, 2025 and January 31, 2025, the reserve for obsolete inventory was approximately $ 95 thousand.

Table of Contents
Inventories by major category are as follows (in thousands):
April 30, 2025 January 31, 2025
Raw materials and packaging $ 2,501 $ 1,654
Work in process 469 723
Finished goods 2,317 2,440
Total $ 5,287 $ 4,817
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant, and equipment are recorded at cost net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Asset lives for financial statement reporting of depreciation are:
Machinery and equipment 2 - 7 years
Furniture and fixtures 3 - 5 years
Leasehold improvements *
(*) Amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease or the estimated useful lives, whichever period is shorter.
Upon sale or retirement of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company reviews the recoverability of property, plant and equipment when circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset class may not be recoverable. Indicators of impairment could include, among other factors, significant changes in the business environment, the planned closure of a facility, or deterioration in operating cash flows. Considerable management judgment is necessary to evaluate the impact of operating changes and to estimate future cash flows. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance that do not substantially improve or extend the useful life of an asset are expensed as incurred.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair values of the underlying net assets of an acquired business. The Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter of its fiscal year, or immediately if conditions indicate that an impairment could exist. The Company evaluates qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying value and whether it is necessary to perform goodwill impairment testing.
As of April 30, 2025 and April 30, 2024, there were no impairment losses recognized for goodwill.
Other Intangible Assets
Other intangible assets consist of trademarks, trade names and customer relationships. Intangible asset lives for financial statement reporting of amortization are:
Tradenames and trademarks 3 years
Customer relationships 4 – 5 years
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value is an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
9
Table of Contents
The carrying values of the Company’s short-term financial instruments, such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, approximate fair value due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these instruments.
The interest rate on the Company’s line of credit and notes payable has a variable component, which is reflective of the market for such instruments at any given date, and as such the carrying value of the debt approximates its fair value.
Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are measured using the fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
Level 1: observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
Level 3: unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions.
Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The Company's financial assets that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of April 30, 2025 and January 31, 2025 were as follows (in thousands):
April 30, 2025 January 31, 2025
Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
Cash equivalents $ 11,382 $ — $ — $ 11,382 $ 6,842 $ — $ — $ 6,842
Total $ 11,382 $ — $ — $ 11,382 $ 6,842 $ — $ — $ 6,842
Research and Development
Research and development is expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses were $ 73 thousand and $ 104 thousand for the three months ended April 30, 2025 and April 30, 2024, respectively.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) .
The Company’s sales are primarily generated from the sale of finished products to customers. Revenue is recognized when the performance obligation is satisfied, and the promised goods have been transferred. Control transfers when the product is shipped or delivered based upon applicable shipping terms. For each contract, the Company considers the transfer of product to be the performance obligation. Although some payment terms may be extended, generally the Company’s payment terms are approximately 15- 30 days. Accordingly, there are no significant financing components to consider when determining the transaction price. The Company elected to treat shipping and handling activities as fulfillment activities, and the related costs are recorded as selling expenses in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company promotes its products with trade incentives and promotions. These programs include discounts, slotting fees, coupons, rebates, in-store display incentives and volume-based incentives. The trade incentives and promotions are recorded as a reduction to the transaction price based on amounts estimated as being due to customers at the end of the period. The Company derives these estimates based on historical experience. The Company does not receive a distinct service in relation to the trade incentives and promotions. The Company’s contracts are all short-term in nature; therefore, there are no unsatisfied performance obligations requiring disclosure as of April 30, 2025 and January 31, 2025.

Reductions in the transaction price attributable to items such as slotting fees, sales discounts, and allowances are accounted for as a direct reduction of revenues as follows (in thousands):

Midwest 9,319 6,384
West 9,760 6,750
Total gross sales $ 37,504 $ 30,398
Costs of Sales
Costs of sales represents costs directly related to the production and manufacturing of the Company’s products.
Advertising
Costs incurred for producing and communicating advertising for the Company are charged to operations as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. Advertising expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2025 and April 30, 2024 were $ 814 thousand and $ 476 thousand, respectively.
St ock-Based Compensation
The Company provides compensation benefits in the form of performance stock units, restricted stock units, stock options, and warrants. The cost of the stock-based compensation is recorded at fair value on the date of grant and expensed in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations over the requisite service period.
The Company has granted performance awards in the form of Performance Stock Units ("PSUs") to certain executive officers. Each performance stock unit award entitles the participant to earn shares of common stock upon the attainment of certain market conditions and/or certain performance goals over the applicable performance period. The recognition of the compensation expense for the performance stock awards is based upon the probable outcome of the market condition and performance conditions and is based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. To determine the value of PSUs with market conditions for stock-based compensation purposes, the Company used a Monte Carlo simulation valuation model. Forfeitures are recognized when they occur. The Company's performance against the defined goals is re-evaluated on a quarterly basis throughout the performance period and the recognition of the compensation expense is adjusted for subsequent changes in the estimated or actual outcome.
The Company values stock options and warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Grants of stock-based payment awards issued to non-employees for services rendered have been recorded at the fair value of the stock-based payment, which is the more readily determinable value. The grants are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. If an award is granted, but vesting does not occur, any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed in the period related to the termination of service.
The Company has granted restricted stock units ("RSUs") that entitle the participant to earn shares of common stock so long as they continuously provide service to the Company through a given date. The Company values RSUs by multiplying the underlying shares of common stock by the closing stock price on the date of the grant, and the related expense is recognized ratably over the vesting period of the awards.

Earnings Per Share
Basic net income or loss per share attributable to common stockholders excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income during the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income or loss per share reflects potential dilution and is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, which is increased by the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued. However, if the effect of any additional securities is anti-dilutive (i.e., resulting in a higher net income per share or lower net loss per share), they are excluded from the dilutive net income computation. The dilutive effect of stock options, warrants, and restricted stock is calculated using the treasury stock method.
The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in computing basic and diluted net income per common share (in thousands, except per share data):

Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided in accordance with ASC 740, “ Accounting for Income Taxes. ” A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax expense results from the net change during the period of deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. As of April 30, 2025 and January 31, 2025, the Company recognized a deferred tax asset of $ 469 thousand and $ 258 thousand, respectively, which is included in other long-term assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company regularly evaluates the need for a valuation allowance related to the deferred tax assets.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, " Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. " The new guidance is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily
12
Table of Contents
through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendment is effective retrospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Adoption of this standard led to enhanced segment reporting disclosures but did not impact the Company's results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025. See Note 13, Segment Information in the accompanying notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, " Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. " The new guidance is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in the ASU address investor requests for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The amendment is effective retrospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. This ASU is effective on a prospective basis for the Company in the fiscal year ending January 31, 2026 and will result in additional disclosures being included in the Consolidated Financial Statements for the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2026.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, " Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures " (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses." Additionally, in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-01 to clarify the effective date of ASU No. 2024-03. The new guidance aims to enhance disclosures about a public business entity's expenses by providing more specific information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period, enabling investors to better understand the entity’s overall performance, including its cost structure, and assess potential future cash flows. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, on a retrospective or prospective basis, with early adoption permitted.

Note 12 - Income Tax Provision
The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended April 30, 2025 and April 30, 2024 was 18.5 % and 24.5 %, respectively. Differences from the statutory rate primarily relate to state taxes.
As of April 30, 2025, and January 31, 2025, the net deferred tax asset was approximately $ 469 thousand and $ 258 thousand, respectively.
In assessing the realization 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. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future generation of taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. There was no valuation allowance on the Company's deferred tax assets as of April 30, 2025 or January 31, 2025.
The Company evaluated the provisions of ASC 740 related to the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, present, and disclose uncertain positions that the Company has taken or expects to take in its tax return. For those benefits
18
Table of Contents
to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. Differences between tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and the net benefit recognized and measured pursuant to the interpretation are referred to as “unrecognized benefits.” A liability is recognized (or amount of net operating loss carryforward or amount of tax refundable is reduced) for unrecognized tax benefit because it represents an enterprise’s potential future obligation to the taxing authority for a tax position that was not recognized as a result of applying the provisions of ASC 740.
