+Added: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No.
+Added: 119 and Update to SEC Section on Effective Date Related to Accounting Standards Update No.

+Added: Our financial assets are limited to trade receivables.
+Added: We estimate our reserve based on historical loss information.
+Added: We believe that historical loss information is a reasonable base on which to determine expected credit losses for trade receivables held at the reporting date because the composition of the trade receivables at the reporting date is consistent with that used in developing the historical credit-loss percentages.
+Added: However, the Company will continue to monitor and adjust the historical loss rates to reflect the effects of current conditions and forecasted changes.

−Removed: therefore, we may not have sufficient funds to sustain our operations for
−Removed: the next twelve months and we may need to raise additional cash to fund our operations.
−Removed: These factors raise substantial doubt about the

−Removed: The Company has commenced sales and continues to develop its operations.
−Removed: event sales do not materialize at the expected rates, management would seek additional financing or would attempt to conserve cash by
−Removed: further reducing expenses.
−Removed: There can be no assurance that we will be successful in achieving these objectives.

−Removed: notes and warrants.
+Added: In the prior reporting period, there was significant doubt regarding Sow Good's ability to continue as a going concern.
+Added: This concern stemmed from our status as an early-stage development company, characterized by significant capital requirements and uncertain financial projections, largely due to a lack of historical sales data.
+Added: The turnaround can be attributed to two successful capital raises that totaled $ 6,445,848 .
+Added: These infusions of capital have significantly bolstered our financial stability and capacity for sustained operations.
+Added: The Company has experienced excellent sales growth in the last two quarters, exceeding initial projections and establishing a more predictable revenue stream.
+Added: This positive trend in sales performance is indicative of a growing market acceptance of our products/services and a clearer path to long-term viability.
+Added: Based on these developments, management no longer has significant doubt about Sow Good's ability to continue as a going concern.
+Added: The Company realized a net loss of $ 3,060,433 for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to a net loss of $ 12,127,068 for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Note 5 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments
−Removed: Under FASB ASC 820-10-5, fair value is defined
−Removed: as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants
−Removed: at the measurement date (an exit price).
−Removed: The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase
−Removed: the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures.
−Removed: Under GAAP, certain assets and liabilities must
−Removed: be measured at fair value, and FASB ASC 820-10-50 details the disclosures that are required for items measured at fair value.
−Removed: The Company has cash and cash equivalents and
−Removed: a revolving credit facility that must be measured under the fair value standard.
−Removed: The Company’s financial assets and liabilities
−Removed: are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy.
−Removed: The three levels are as follows:
−Removed: Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted
−Removed: prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
−Removed: Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices
−Removed: for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are
−Removed: not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, etc.),
−Removed: and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated
−Removed: Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that
−Removed: reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
−Removed: The following schedule summarizes the valuation
−Removed: of financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis in the balances sheet as of December 31, 2022 and 2021:
−Removed: Valuation of financial instruments at fair value
+Added: The Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” which requires the measurement of certain financial instruments at fair value.
+Added: The Company's financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, and accounts receivable, which approximate fair value due to their short-term nature, and Term Loans issued in connection with detachable warrants, which are carried on the balance sheet net of the unamortized portion of the related discounts.
+Added: For financial instruments or investments that are required to be reported at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis under GAAP, the applicable guidance for fair value measurement requires the Company to include the determination of the appropriate fair value hierarchy level for each instrument.
+Added: The fair value hierarchy levels consist of the following:
+Added: Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets or Liabilities - This level represents the highest degree of observability, where fair values are based on quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
+Added: Inputs Other Than Quoted Prices Included within Level 1 - Fair values in this level are based on inputs other than quoted market prices but are still observable, such as quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities, or inputs derived from market data.
+Added: Unobservable Inputs - This level includes fair values for which there are no observable inputs and relies on the reporting entity's own assumptions and estimates.
+Added: These fair values are considered the least reliable and most subjective.
+Added: Detachable common stock warrants issued in connection with debt may be recorded as either liabilities or equity depending on the applicable accounting guidance.
+Added: The Company determined that warrants issued in connection with our notes payable met the definition of a freestanding financial instrument and qualified for treatment as permanent equity.
+Added: Warrants recorded as equity are recorded at the fair market value determined at issuance date, and are not remeasured after that.
+Added: We utilized the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of warrants granted at issuance date.
+Added: The initial measurement of the fair value of the notes considers the present value of future cash flows, discounted at the current market rate of interest at the issuance date, and time to liquidity.
+Added: The Company allocated the value of warrants between the relative fair value of the notes payable without the warrants, and the warrants themselves at the time of issuance.
+Added: The allocated portion of the warrants was treated as a debt discount, and amortized over the term of the note.
+Added: The amortization of the debt discount is recognized as interest expense.
+Added: When a notes payable are issued at a discount, wherein a significant portion of the issuance is between related parties, the valuation of the notes and the discount involve significant judgement and the use of unobservable inputs, classifying it into Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, requiring a nonrecurring fair value measurement.
+Added: Changes other than additions, settlements, or discount amortization, in the fair value of the notes payable, net of discounts do not impact net income or cash flows.
+Added: The following schedule summarizes the valuation of financial instruments at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the balances sheet as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 :
