NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
cbdMD, Inc. (“cbdMD,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of North Carolina, formed on March 17, 2015 as Level Beauty Group, Inc. In November 2016, we changed the name of the Company to Level Brands, Inc., and on May 1, 2019, we changed the name of our Company to cbdMD, Inc. We operate from offices located in Charlotte, North Carolina. Our fiscal year end is established as September 30.
There have been no material changes in the Company's significant accounting policies from those previously disclosed in the Annual Report as of and for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025 as filed on Form 10-K, as amended (the “2025 10-K”).
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of cbdMD have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the 2025 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries: CBDI, Paw CBD, Proline, Therapeutics and Bluebird. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reverse Stock Split
On April 17, 2025, the Board of Directors effected a reverse stock split at a ratio of one-for-eight, effective as of May 6, 2025. Unless otherwise indicated, all share numbers in this filing, including shares of common stock and all securities convertible into, or exercisable for, shares of common stock, give effect to the reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”).
Use of Estimates
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP and requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined to be necessary. Significant estimates made in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, allowances for credit losses, inventory valuation reserves, expected sales returns and allowances, certain assumptions related to the valuation of investments and other securities, acquired intangibles and long-lived assets, the recoverability of intangible and long-lived assets, and income taxes, including deferred tax valuation allowances and reserves for estimated tax liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company continues to monitor macroeconomic conditions to remain flexible and to optimize and evolve its business as appropriate.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For financial statements purposes, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivables are stated at cost less an allowance for credit losses. Credit is extended to customers after an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, and generally collateral is not required as a condition of credit extension. Management’s determination of the allowance for credit losses is based on an evaluation of the receivables, past experience, current economic conditions, and other risks inherent in the receivables portfolio. The balance for allowance for credit losses was $
The following table represents a summary of the allowance for credit losses for the periods ended June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025:
| June 30, 2026 | September 30, 2025 | |||||||
| Credit loss allowance - beginning of period | $ | $ | ||||||
| Credit loss provision | ||||||||
| Write offs | ( | ) | ( | ) | ||||
| Credit loss allowance - end of period | $ | $ | ||||||
Merchant Receivable and Reserve
The Company primarily sells its products through the internet and has an arrangement to process customer payments with third-party payment processors and negotiate the fee based on the market. The arrangement with the payment processors requires that the Company pay a fee between
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost being determined on a weighted average basis. The cost of inventory includes product cost, freight-in, and production fill and labor. Write-offs of potentially slow moving or damaged inventory are recorded based on management’s analysis of inventory levels, forecasted future sales volume and pricing and through specific identification of obsolete or damaged products. We assess inventory quarterly for slow moving products and potential impairments and at a minimum perform a physical inventory count annually near fiscal year end. The reserve for inventory was $
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment items are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures on routine maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation is charged to expense over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method. Generally, the useful lives are years for manufacturing equipment and automobiles and years for software, computer, and furniture and equipment. The useful life for leasehold improvements is over the term of the lease, or the remaining economic life of the asset, whichever is shorter. The cost and accumulated depreciation of property are eliminated from the accounts upon disposal, and any resulting gain or loss is included in the consolidated statements of operations for the applicable period. Long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever changes in circumstance indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable.
Fair Value Accounting
The Company utilizes relevant accounting standards for fair value, which include the definition of fair value, the framework for measuring fair value, and disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, fair value accounting standards establish a hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).
Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, observable market activity. In instances where the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
When the Company records an investment in marketable securities the carrying value is carried at fair value. Any changes in fair value for marketable securities during a given period will be recorded as an unrealized gain or loss in the consolidated statement of operations. For investment in other securities without a readily determinable fair value, the Company may elect to estimate its fair value at cost less impairment plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes.
The Company elected the fair value option for its convertible notes. The convertible notes were initially recognized at fair value on the balance sheet. All subsequent changes in fair value, excluding the impact of the change in fair value related to instrument-specific credit risk, are recorded in non-operating income (loss). The changes in fair value related to instrument-specific credit risk are recorded through other comprehensive loss. These notes were fully satisfied in fiscal year 2025. See Note 11 for more information related to the convertible notes.
Intangible Assets
Trademarks, tradenames, and technology relief from royalty are amortized over an estimated useful life of 5-10 years. The Company performs impairment tests whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset group's carrying value may not be recoverable.
Goodwill
Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenues when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which it expects to receive in exchange for those goods. The Company recognizes revenues following the five-step model including: (i) identify contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenues when (or as) we satisfy the performance obligation.
Performance Obligations
Contract liabilities represent unearned revenues and are presented as deferred revenue on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Other than accounts receivable, the Company has material contract assets at June 30, 2026.

Cost of Sales
The Company’s cost of sales includes costs associated with distribution, fill and labor expense, components, manufacturing overhead, third-party providers, and outbound freight for the Company’s products sales. For the Company’s product sales, cost of sales also includes the cost of refurbishing products returned by customers that will be offered for resale, if any, and the cost of inventory write-downs associated with adjustments of held inventories to their net realizable value. These expenses are reflected in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations when the product is sold and net sales revenues are recognized or, in the case of inventory write-downs, when circumstances indicate that the carrying value of inventories is in excess of their net realizable value.
Income Taxes
The Company is a North Carolina corporation that is treated as a corporation for federal and state income tax purposes. CBDI, Therapeutics, Proline Global, Paw CBD and Bluebird are wholly owned subsidiaries and are disregarded entities for tax purposes and their entire share of taxable income or loss is included in the tax return of the Company.
The Company accounts for income taxes utilizing the asset and liability approach which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company uses the inside basis approach to determine deferred tax assets and liabilities associated with its investment in a consolidated pass-through entity. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.
Concentrations
Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and securities.
The Company places its cash and cash equivalents on deposit with financial institutions in the United States. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) covers $250,000 for substantially all depository accounts. The Company from time to time may have amounts on deposit in excess of the insured limits.
Concentration of credit risk with respect to receivables is principally limited to trade receivables with corporate customers that meet specific credit policies. Management considers these customer receivables to represent normal business risk. The Company did not have any customers that represented a significant amount of our sales for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date fair value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes model for measuring the fair value of options and warrants. The fair value compensation is determined as of the date of the grant or the date at which the performance of the services is completed (measurement date) and is recognized over the vesting periods. The Company recognizes forfeitures when they occur.
Loss Per Share
The Company computes basic loss per share by dividing net loss and net loss attributable to common shareholders, after deducting preferred stock dividends, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation of net loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive.
Liquidity and Going Concern Considerations
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company experienced a loss of $
While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy and path to profitability, and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurance that these actions will be successful. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to improve profitability and its ability to acquire additional funding on commercially reasonable terms, if required. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months after the date that the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the Company's inability to continue as a going concern.

Effective February 1, 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement dated January 30, 2024 with five institutional investors (the “Investors”) pursuant to which the Investors advanced the Company an aggregate of $
New Accounting Standards
In November 2023, the FASB issued guidance that updates reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used to assess segment performance on an annual and interim basis. The Company adopted this guidance for its annual period ending September 30, 2025. While the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, the new guidance resulted in increased disclosures on reportable segments in Note 15 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued guidance that requires disaggregation of specific expense categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements on an annual and interim basis. The Company is required to adopt this guidance for its annual period ending September 30, 2028 and all interim periods thereafter on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance that enhances the transparency of income tax disclosures by expanding annual disclosure requirements related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The Company is required to adopt this guidance for its annual period ending September 30, 2026, which will result in increased disclosures in the Notes to its Consolidated Financial Statements.
NOTE 2 – MARKETABLE SECURITIES AND INVESTMENT OTHER SECURITIES
The Company has, from time to time, entered into contracts where a portion of the consideration provided by the counterparty in exchange for the Company’s products or services was common stock, options or warrants (an equity position). In these situations, upon invoicing the customer for the stock or other instruments, the Company recorded the receivable as accounts receivable other, and used the value of the stock or other instrument upon invoicing to determine the value. In determining fair value of marketable securities and investment other securities, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible and consider counterparty credit risk in our assessment of fair value. The Company determines the fair value of marketable securities and investment other securities based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs.

NOTE 10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is occasionally involved in legal proceedings and subject to claims arising in the ordinary course of business. While litigation and claims outcomes cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company is not currently a party to any legal proceeding that, if resolved adversely, would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
During 2025, the Company continued to expand distribution of its hemp-derived beverage products. The Company has entered into agreements with various distributors providing for the distribution of certain of our hemp-derived beverage products, subject to certain terms and conditions, which may vary depending on the form of the agreement. Such agreements remain in effect for their then-current term as long as the Company's products are being distributed but are subject to specified termination rights held by each party. Additionally, the Company is entitled to terminate certain distribution agreements at any time without cause upon payment of a termination fee, which may be material depending on the agreement and the sell through of the product set.

NOTE 12 – LEASES
In May of 2026, the Company entered into an amended lease agreement, extending the lease through November 2031. The Company recognizes leasing arrangements on the consolidated balance sheet as right-of-use assets and liabilities pertaining to the rights and obligations created by the leased assets. The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at inception and classifies it as finance or operating. The Company’s lease is classified as an operating lease. The Company’s lease does not contain any residual value guarantees.
Right-of-use lease assets and corresponding lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the expected lease term. Since the interest rate implicit in our lease arrangements is not readily determinable, the Company determined an incremental borrowing rate for its lease based on the approximate interest rate on a collateralized basis with similar remaining terms and payments as of the lease commencement date to determine the present value of future lease payments. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease.
In addition to the monthly base amounts in the lease agreement, the Company is required to pay real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance expenses during the lease term and are treated as period expenses during the time incurred.
Lease costs on operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and included as a selling, general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 14 – INCOME TAXES
The Company has a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets, with the exception of the deferred tax liabilities that result from indefinite-life intangibles (“naked credits”). The Company has determined that using the general methodology for calculating income taxes during an interim period for the quarters ending December 31, 2019, March 31, 2020, and June 30, 2020, provided for a wide range of potential annual effective rates. At September 30, 2025, the Company recorded a net deferred tax asset of as the cumulative net deferred tax asset had a full valuation on it and there was not enough positive evidence that would warrant recognizing the benefit of the net deferred tax asset. In addition, the net indefinite lived deferred tax items were a deferred tax asset so there was not any recognition of a deferred tax liability related to indefinite lived deferred tax liabilities. At June 30, 2026, the Company determined the same circumstances to be true and therefore recorded a net deferred tax asset of zero.
NOTE 15 – SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company operates as a reportable segment. Our chief operating decision maker (CODM) is the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews financial information on a consolidated basis for purposes of assessing performance and allocating resources. Accordingly, all of the Company's operations are considered a single operating segment under the criteria of ASC 280, Segment Reporting.
Because we have a single reportable segment, the segment information presented herein is consistent with the condensed consolidated financial statements. The required segment information for revenue, profit or loss, assets, and specified expenses (such as depreciation and amortization) can be found on the face of the condensed consolidated income statement and condensed consolidated balance sheet.
NOTE 16 - BUSINESS COMBINATION
On January 12, 2026, the Company, Bluebird and Bluebird’s wholly owned subsidiaries entered into the Asset Purchase Agreement. Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired substantially all of Bluebird’s assets, including Bluebird’s brand name, website, related trademarks, inventory, and certain other assets, and assumed certain liabilities. This strategic acquisition brings together two mission-aligned brands and broadens the Company's customer base. The purchase consideration consisted of (i)
The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In connection with the acquisition, the Company engaged an independent third-party valuation firm to assist management in determining the estimated fair values of the assets acquired. The valuation was performed using accepted valuation methodologies and management estimates and assumptions. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase consideration to the assets acquired based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date:
| Bluebird Assets Acquired: | Fair Value | |||
| Net working capital | ||||
| Property and Equipment | ||||
| Customer relationships | | |||
| Intellectual property | ||||
| Goodwill | ||||
| Total purchase consideration | $ |
The identifiable intangible assets acquired consisted primarily of customer relationships and intellectual property. Customer relationship intangible assets represent the estimated fair value attributable to existing customer relationships acquired in the transaction. Intellectual property represents proprietary technology, know-how, trademarks, and related intangible assets acquired as part of the acquisition.
The above purchase price allocation is preliminary and subject to change during the measurement period (which may extend to up to 12 months from the acquisition date) as the Company finalizes its accounting for this transaction.
The excess purchase consideration allocated to goodwill primarily represents the value attributable to the assembled workforce, expected synergies, future growth opportunities, and other intangible benefits that do not qualify for separate recognition. Of the total goodwill recognized, approximately $
The acquired customer relationships and intellectual property are finite-lived intangible assets and are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of
Goodwill is not amortized and is evaluated for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Finite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 and the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025 should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements that are included elsewhere in this report. Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions.
Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements because of several factors, including those set forth under Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors and Business sections in our 2025 10-K, and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. In addition, any statements that refer to projections of our future financial performance, our anticipated growth and trends in our businesses, and other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on our current expectations and could be affected by the uncertainties and risk factors described throughout this report.

Our Company
General
We own and operate the nationally recognized CBD (cannabidiol) brands cbdMD, Paw CBD, and Bluebird Botanicals, as well as functional mushroom brand ATRx Labs, and Herbal Oasis, our line of THC beverages. We believe that we are an industry leader producing and distributing hemp derived solutions including broad spectrum CBD products and full spectrum CBD products. Our mission is to enhance our customer’s overall quality of life while bringing powerful natural plant education, awareness and accessibility of high quality and effective products to all. We source hemp-derived cannabinoids, which are extracted from non-GMO hemp grown on farms in the United States. Our innovative broad spectrum formula utilizes one of the purest hemp extracts, containing CBD, CBG and CBN, while eliminating the presence of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Non-THC is defined as below the level of detection using validated scientific analytical methods. Our full spectrum and Delta 9 products contain a variety of cannabinoids and terpenes in addition to CBD while maintaining small amounts of THC that fall below the level of detection and are within the limits set in the 2018 Farm Act. In addition to our core brands, we also operate cbdMD Therapeutics to capture the Company’s ongoing investments in science related to its existing and future products, including research and development activities for therapeutic applications.
Our cbdMD brand of products includes an array of high-grade, premium everyday and functional CBD products, including tinctures, gummies, topicals, capsules, and sleep, focus and calming aids. In addition, we have clinical based claims and industry leading strength and concentrations to drive product efficacy.

Our Paw CBD brand of products includes veterinarian-formulated products including tinctures, chews, topicals products in varying strengths and formulas. Paw CBD products have undergone the National Animal Safety Council’s rigorous audit and meet their Quality Seal standard.

Our ATRx brand was developed using the power of functional mushrooms to provide consumers a complementary natural ingredient solution for immunity, focus, digestive health, and cognitive and mood benefits.

Herbal Oasis (“Oasis”) is a premium hemp-derived THC-infused social seltzer that blends cannabinoids and nootropic mushrooms to deliver a fast-acting, functional beverage made for presence and connection. In addition, Oasis just expanded into other natural compounds including Kava.

Bluebird is a line of premium full and broad spectrum hemp products.

cbdMD, Paw CBD, Oasis, Bluebird and ATRx products are distributed through our e-commerce websites, third party e-commerce sites, select distributors and marketing partners as well as a variety of brick-and-mortar retailers.
Recent Developments
Management continues to be very focused on our goal of delivering positive revenue growth and positive earnings through a combination of optimizing our product portfolio, right-sizing our cost structure and investing in marketing that will provide positive return on customer acquisition. During the quarter we continued to make gains year over year in revenue growth, but fell short on profitability.
Toward the end of the first quarter of 2026, the Company raised additional cash to bolster its balance sheet with the Series C Preferred Stock and structured an ELOC. Over the last few months, we have seen several instances where the stock price and volume have increased and we believe the ELOC will allow us to prudently take advantage of these situations should they occur in the future.
The Company has continued to pursue several potential acquisitions since the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock in 2025. In January 2026, the Company acquired the Bluebird brand. The Company believes Bluebird provides (i) a large existing customer base that is underserved with its existing product portfolio (ii) a brand name not defined by CBD, allowing for natural expansion into other natural products, (iii) significant SG&A synergies, and (iv) intellectual property including self-GRAS status on their full spectrum product. During the second quarter of fiscal 2026, the acquisition cost and integration costs created a $75,000 drag on the P&L, and an additional $24,000 in costs in the third quarter related to the accounting valuation. Bluebird contributed over $550,000 in revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2026.
Management continues to pursue other M&A activity and incurred over $100,000 in legal and due diligence expenses on pursuing other transactions that would further diversify the Company's revenue and mitigate certain regulatory risks facing the hemp industry.
During the second quarter, the regulatory environment for hemp-derived cannabinoid products continued to evolve materially. H.R. 5371, the “Continuing Appropriations, Agriculture, Legislative Branch, Military Construction and Veterans Affairs, and Extensions Act, 2026” (the “Act”), signed into law on November 12, 2025, remains scheduled to take effect on November 12, 2026. Section 781 of the Act narrows the federal definition of hemp by shifting to a total THC standard (inclusive of THCA) and limits hemp-derived consumable products to 0.4 mg of total THC per container. It remains unknown whether these sections will go into effect as written, or be replaced, delayed, or amended by subsequent acts of Congress.
While cbdMD was founded using THC-free broad spectrum formulations, a meaningful amount of our revenues is derived from products containing low-dose hemp-derived THC that complies with the original Farm Bill. The majority of the Company's revenue for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026, 64% and 61%, respectively, was derived from products that would comply with the Act's THC limitations; however, a meaningful amount of revenue could be impacted should no changes in legislation occur. The Act, if implemented as currently written, will likely have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, results of operations, and financial condition. Management continues to evaluate strategic alternatives to mitigate potential impacts, including product reformulation and channel diversification, but no assurance can be given that the Company will successfully adapt its portfolio or that alternative legislation will be enacted.
Numerous bills in the 119th Congress would repeal, delay, or modify Section 781 of Public Law 119-37 or establish a federal framework for hemp-derived cannabinoid products, including H.R. 6209, H.R. 7024/S. 3686, S. 3474, H.R. 7212, and S. 4315, none of which has advanced beyond committee. Most prominently, on July 22, 2026, Representatives Andy Barr and Angie Craig introduced the bipartisan, White House-supported Lawful Hemp Protection Act (H.R. 9830), which would replace Section 781's restrictions with a permanent federal regulatory framework redefining hemp at up to 1% total THC on a dry-weight basis while banning synthetic cannabinoids, directing the FDA to set per-serving potency limits, restricting sales to consumers 21 and older, imposing federal excise taxes, and requiring permits, testing, and labeling standards. On April 30, 2026, the House passed the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026 (H.R. 7567), which did not modify Section 781's restrictions on finished hemp-derived cannabinoid products; on August 6, 2026, the Senate Agriculture Committee's competing markup failed 10-11 and likewise left those restrictions unchanged. A Senate stopgap appropriations proposal released August 2, 2026 would, through December 11, 2026, temporarily exempt naturally occurring cannabinoids from the revised total-THC definition and the 0.4 mg per-container limit, while restrictions on synthetic cannabinoids would still take effect November 12, 2026. As of the date of this filing, none of these measures has been enacted, and the Company cannot predict the outcome, timing, or ultimate impact of any of them.
As previously disclosed, our products are regulated by the FDA. The FDA performs inspections to ensure that our facilities remain in compliance with applicable regulations for our industry. In April and May 2026, the FDA completed an inspection of our Charlotte, North Carolina manufacturing facility for dietary supplement GMP compliance. At the conclusion of the inspection, the FDA provided inspectional observations focusing primarily on documentation, recordkeeping, and quality control oversight. No product safety issues or consumer injuries were identified. The Company is in the process of timely responding to the FDA and actively taking actions to address the observations.
We continue to see changing rules and regulations at the state level, which is causing ongoing disruption and additional compliance costs. Given the pace and uncertainty of these developments, the ultimate impact on the Company's business, results of operations, and financial condition cannot be predicted with certainty.
Management Priorities
We remain focused on positioning the Company for a changing regulatory landscape. During the second and third quarters, we made progress on the following key initiatives:
| ● |
Revenue Maximization: At the end of the third quarter, we added South Carolina distribution for Oasis and transitioned to a new distribution partner in Texas, which more than quadrupled the stores we have access to and we are seeing market growth in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026. The launch of our Oasis Mixer has been well received and is contributing to brand growth. Our core direct-to-consumer business faced headwinds during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 as we restricted shipping of certain products to a growing number of states, affecting approximately $150,000 of direct-to-consumer revenue. Notwithstanding these restrictions, we continue to optimize our customer acquisition funnel and customer experience to drive both revenue and customer lifetime value. |
| ● |
Cost control and Right Sizing: Beginning in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2026, we implemented a plan targeting $100,000 to $150,000 in monthly cost savings, or approximately $1.2 to $1.8 million on an annualized basis. These are principally fixed-cost reductions and to date have included payroll reductions, renegotiating and lowering our warehouse lease, and renegotiating or exiting a number of vendor contracts. We have also identified additional supply-chain savings that we expect to begin realizing in our results during the latter half of the current quarter. We believe these actions will improve adjusted EBITDA and contribution margin and extend our cash runway. Separately, we continue to develop contingency plans, including adjusting our product model and carefully managing inventory levels, in the event Section 781's restrictions take effect as scheduled on November 12, 2026 without modification. |
| ● |
Innovation: Having built core direct-to-consumer and distribution infrastructure, we believe we can leverage these channels to bring additional health-and-wellness products to market, and we see growing consumer demand for non-alcoholic products that help people relax and unwind. During the third quarter of fiscal 2026, we began selling Kava products under our Kavari brand, and as of the date of this filing Oasis has launched a zero-proof Kava beverage as a follow-on to the Oasis Mixer. Together with Kava, we are developing formulations using other botanical ingredients intended to address demand created by legislative changes, and we expect to introduce additional product categories toward the end of fiscal year 2026. |
| ● |
Acquisitions: Beyond Bluebird, we continue to pursue opportunities where we believe (i) there is an accretive customer base that can lower our cost of customer acquisitions through either a complementary direct to consumer base or wholesale channels, or (ii) the target has a profitable business or easily attainable cost synergies that can quickly help contribute and accelerate profitability of our Company. |

Net Sales
We had total net sales of $5.6 million and $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, resulting in an increase in net sales of $0.9 million or 20% quarter over quarter. We had total net sales of $16.2 million and $14.5 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, resulting in an increase in net sales of $1.7 million or 12% year over year. This increase is comprised of gains in both our direct to consumer and wholesale business. Direct to consumer included gains related to the revenue added from the acquisition of Bluebird. Our wholesale business continued to trend year over year due to gains with our Oasis brand and other cbdMD brand initiatives. Our team remains focused on being nimble and adjusting to combat revenue losses coming from state level regulatory changes. Despite the pervasive, industry-wide challenges which we are facing, we believe we are better positioned than many of our peers as we look toward the November rule changes.
Cost of sales
Our cost of sales includes costs associated with distribution, fill and labor expense, components, manufacturing overhead, third party providers, and freight for our product sales. Our cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was 45.3% and 38.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and was 42.7% and 36.5% for the nine month ended June 30,2026 and 2025, respectively. This slight increase in cost of sales is mostly attributed to (i) a shift in our sales mix to more wholesale business which grew $0.6 million year over year, (ii) increase in warehouse labor as we continue to incur repacking projects in response to changes in state regulation, and (iii) $187,437 increase in inventory reserves during the quarter as we prepare for pending regulatory changes.
Operating expenses
Our principal operating expenses include staff-related expenses, advertising (which includes expenses related to industry distribution and trade shows), sponsorships, affiliate commissions, merchant fees, technology, travel, rent, professional service fees, and business insurance expenses.
Consolidated Operating Expenses

Our overall operating expenses increased approximately $0.4 million or 11.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. Payroll costs are up year over year approximately $0.3 million in part due to the acquisition of Bluebird as well as efforts in new product development and additional warehouse staff tied to increased sales and state level product rework. Professional outside services increased approximately $0.2 million as we incurred approximately $30,000 to target the Medicare program, approximately $20,000 in residual accounting valuation expenses related to the acquisition of Bluebird, approximately $50,000 tied to several settlements, approximately $100,000 in professional fees tied to other mergers and acquisition efforts, and further professional fees related to the cbdMD GRAS report. Stock based compensation increased as certain grants vested during the third quarter of fiscal 2026. As previously mentioned, since the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2026, we have implemented changes designed to save over $100,000 in expenses by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026.
Our overall operating expenses increased approximately $0.8 million or 7.9% for the nine months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2025. The acquisition of Bluebird added approximately $746,000 in labor, marketing and acquisition related legal and transaction expenses during the nine months ended June 30, 2026. We also had approximately $134,000 in expenses related to other mergers and acquisitions activity. Stock based compensation increased as certain grants vested during the third quarter of fiscal 2026. These increases were partially offset by decreases in depreciation expense and property plant and equipment became fully depreciated, and other miscellaneous expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We had cash and cash equivalents on hand of approximately $2.1 million, working capital of $4.7 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $181.8 million at June 30, 2026. At September 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $2.3 million, working capital of $3.4 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $179.4 million.
The Company has outstanding quarterly dividend payment obligations under its Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock accrues dividends at a rate of 10% per annum, payable quarterly in shares of common stock (subject to the satisfaction of certain equity conditions) or in cash. The Series C Preferred Stock accrues dividends at the same rate of 10% per annum, also payable quarterly in shares of common stock (subject to the satisfaction of certain equity conditions) or in cash. If the Company fails to satisfy the applicable equity conditions, dividends on both series of preferred stock are payable in cash, which could adversely affect the Company’s liquidity position. As of June 30, 2026, approximately 591,207 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and 1,000,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock were outstanding. The aggregate quarterly dividend obligation, if paid in cash, would be approximately $70,000 based on stated values and the 10% per annum dividend rate.
While the Company is taking strong action and believes that it can execute its strategy and path to profitability, including the Bluebird acquisition, and believes in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to improve profitability and cash flow and the ability to acquire additional funding. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within twelve months after the date that these financial statements are issued. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result in the Company not being able to continue as a going concern.
Cash Flows
During the nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, our sources and uses of cash were as follows:
Operating Activities
During the nine months ended June 30, 2026, net cash used by operating activities was $1.9 million compared to the cash flows used by operating activities of $1.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2025. The primary components of the cash used by operating activities in the nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 are accounts receivable, inventory and prepaid and other operating expenses.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities was $0.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively, and were both related to fixed asset acquisitions.
Financing Activities
Cash provided by (used in) financing activities during the nine months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025 of approximately $1.9 million and $0, respectively. The cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended June 30, 2026 is attributable to the proceeds from the issuance of preferred stock.
We do not have any commitments for material capital expenditures.
Our goal from a liquidity perspective is to use operating cash flows to fund day to day operations. We remain focused on improving the Company's operating performance and continue to focus on profitability, and growing the Company in order to strengthen its balance sheet.
Non-GAAP Financial Measure - Adjusted EBITDA (Unaudited)
To supplement the Company's unaudited interim consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with US GAAP, the Company uses certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance. Non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with, or as an alternative to US GAAP. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance that either excludes or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustment that have such an effect, that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable financial measure that is calculated and presented in accordance with US GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA as presented below is a non-GAAP measure.
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP loss from operations adjusted to exclude (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) stock-based compensation expense, and (iii) mergers and acquisitions and financing transaction expenses. This measure differs from traditional “EBITDA” (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) because the Company’s reconciliation begins with loss from operations, which is presented before interest expense and income tax expense on the consolidated statements of operations.
Our management uses and relies on Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe that management, analysts and shareholders benefit from referring to this non-GAAP financial measure to evaluate and assess our core operating results from period-to-period after removing the impact of items that affect comparability. Specifically, we believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because: (i) depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges that do not reflect our cash-based operating performance; (ii) stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense that can vary significantly based on factors such as share price volatility and is not indicative of core operating performance; and (iii) mergers and acquisitions and financing transaction expenses are non-recurring costs that are not expected to continue in the ordinary course of business. Our management recognizes that the non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations because of the excluded items described below.
We have included a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We believe that providing the non-GAAP financial measures, together with the reconciliation to GAAP, helps investors make comparisons between cbdMD and other companies. In making any comparisons to other companies, investors need to be aware that companies use different non-GAAP measures to evaluate their financial performance. Investors should pay close attention to the specific definition being used and to the reconciliation between such measure and the corresponding GAAP measure provided by each company under applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations include: (i) it does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (ii) it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (iii) it does not reflect the interest expense or cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt; (iv) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; (v) it does not reflect the impact of stock-based compensation upon our overall results of operations; and (vi) other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Critical accounting policies
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with US GAAP and our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and operating results require our management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Note 1, “Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of the Notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and such differences may be material.
Please see Part II, Item 7 – Critical Accounting Policies appearing in our 2025 10-K for the critical accounting policies we believe involve the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements and are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. Management considers these policies critical because they are both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and operating results, and they require management to make judgments and estimates about inherently uncertain matters.
Recent accounting pronouncements
Please see Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies appearing in the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for information on accounting pronouncements.
Off balance sheet arrangements
As of the date of this report, we have no undisclosed 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 are material to investors. The term “off-balance sheet arrangement” generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with us is a party, under which we have any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest or a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Not applicable for a smaller reporting company.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our principal executive officer and principal accounting officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that the information relating to our company, required to be disclosed in our SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal accounting officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
From time to time, the Company may become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the Company is not a party to any pending legal proceedings that it believes would, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, or results of operations. For additional information regarding commitments and contingencies, see Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of the 2025 10-K. Investors should carefully consider the risks described in the 2025 10-K, together with all of the other information included in this Quarterly Report, including our financial statements and the related notes and the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section, before deciding whether to invest in our securities. See also “Liquidity and Capital Resources” above for additional discussion of factors that may affect our results of operations and financial condition.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.
Except as disclosed below, there were no unregistered sales of the Company’s equity securities during the period covered by this report, that were not previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K.
On June 26, 2026 the Company issued 100,000 shares of common stock under the ELOC for gross proceeds of $61,990. The shares were issued under the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
During the 3 months ended June 30, 2025, the Company granted RSUs for aggregate of 215,000 shares of common stock to employees of the Company. The shares of restricted stock were granted under the Company’s 2025 equity incentive plan. The securities were issued under the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
