PART I.
ITEM 1. Business.
General
Luvu Brands, Inc. designs, manufactures and markets a portfolio of consumer lifestyle brands through the Company’s websites, online mass merchants, and specialty retail stores worldwide. Brands include Liberator®, a brand category of iconic products for enhancing sensuality and intimacy; Jaxx®, a diverse range of casual fashion daybeds, sofas and beanbags made from virgin and re-purposed polyurethane foam; and Avana®, products of yoga exercises, sleep comfort, and inclined bed therapy. These products are sold through the Company’s websites, online mass merchants, and retail stores worldwide. Many of our products are offered flat-packed and either roll or vacuum-compressed to save on shipping and reduce our carbon footprint.
Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, the Company occupies a 140,000-square-foot vertically integrated manufacturing facility.
The Company’s e-commerce websites include liberator.com, jaxxliving.com, and avanacomfort.com.
Unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this report to the “Company,” “Luvu Brands,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refers to Luvu Brands, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
Our executive offices are located at 2745 Bankers Industrial Dr., Atlanta, GA 30360; our telephone number is +1-770-246-6400.
Our corporate website is www.LuvuBrands.com. We make available copies of Luvu Brands’ documents, news releases, and our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, also known as the “SEC”, including financial statements.
Unless specifically set forth to the contrary, the information that appears on our websites or our various social media platforms is not part of this annual report.
Corporate History
The Company was incorporated in the State of Florida on February 25, 1999, under the name of WES Consulting, Inc. On October 19, 2009, the Company entered into a Merger and Recapitalization Agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) with Liberator, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Old Liberator”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Old Liberator merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as the sole remaining entity. On February 28, 2011, the Company name was changed from WES Consulting, Inc. to Liberator, Inc. Effective November 5, 2015, the Company changed its corporate name from Liberator, Inc. to Luvu Brands, Inc. to reflect its broader offering of wellness and lifestyle products designed for mass market channels.
Overview of our Facilities and Operations
Since inception we have used a vertically integrated business model, with manufacturing, distribution, product development, advertising and marketing performed in-house. We believe this allows us to create new products with reduced lead times at a lower cost while enabling us to quickly respond to market and customer demands for our existing products.
For our wholesale accounts and international distributors, being able to fulfill large orders with shorter turnaround times allows us to capture business during December and February when wholesale customers make just-in-time holiday purchases.
Our 140,000 square foot facility on eight acres is located in a suburb of metro Atlanta, Georgia and includes manufacturing and distribution, sales and marketing, product development, customer service and administrative staff. All of the Liberator, Jaxx and Avana branded products are designed, produced and marketed from our facility in Atlanta, Georgia.
Our Atlanta-based manufacturing operation has two CAD controlled fabric cutters, one CAD controlled wood cutter, two CAD controlled foam contouring machines and two state-of-the-art conveyor unit production sewing systems.
| 1 |
| Table of Contents |
Our sewing equipment is also highly automated with conveyor-based lines leading into vacuum and roll compression packaging of finished products. We believe that our in-house manufacturing capabilities have enabled us to achieve greater efficiencies and cost savings, as well as strict control over the entire manufacturing cycle including raw material procurement, finished goods production and logistics optimization. In addition to providing us with greater production flexibility, our in-house manufacturing provides us with the opportunity to improve fulfillment response time, reduces the risk of out-of-stock situations, limits finished goods obsolescence and improves overall operating margins.
Because fabric cutting, sewing, foam contouring, assembly and vacuum packaging are performed in-house, we believe we can exercise greater control over product quality and respond faster to changing customer demands, which gives us a competitive advantage over companies that utilize only out-sourced sewing services. In addition to our in-house sewing capabilities, we outsource the sewing of certain high-volume products to a contract sewing facility in Mexico.
We source raw materials from multiple domestic and foreign suppliers and have supply contracts to produce our specialty fabrics under specific quality control and performance standards with just-in-time deliveries. We also repurpose over 4,000 pounds of polyurethane foam trim daily, primarily for Jaxx bean bags, giving us a cost and quality competitive advantage.
All business activity of the Company is done through our wholly-owned subsidiary, OneUp Innovations, Inc. (“OneUp”). OneUp was organized in 2000 and began operations in 2002.
Business Strategy
We aim to achieve long-term growth and profitability by expanding our distribution channels and customer base for Liberator, Jaxx, and Avana. We create ongoing collections of innovative products with good design and price-to-value that ship flat-packed and vacuum-compressed. By running our own websites and aligning ourselves with both mass market and specialty retailers, we leave less room for importers and copy-cats to compete. We believe that marketing directly to the customer is the best way to build brands, and by doing so we create value for our customers and wealth for our shareholders.
| · | Manufacturing. To improve our business results, we constantly look for ways to manage the impact of rising raw material and labor costs by improving the productivity and efficiency of our manufacturing processes. As demand for certain high-volume products continues to increase, we plan to shift more production to low cost international manufacturers. |
|
|
|
| · | Sustainability. We believe that sustainable operations are both financially and operationally beneficial to our business and critical to our future success. We are acutely focused on waste reduction efforts: repurposing 98% of our foam trim to other products, compressing all of our foam products to reduce freight costs and corrugated use, improving manufacturing processes to reduce waste overall, finding new ways to repurpose certain waste streams and establishing local recycling partnerships to divert waste from landfills. |
|
|
|
| · | Eco-Packaging. We maintain vacuum-compressed packaging to reduce our carbon footprint, make our products more convenient for the consumer and easier to display for the retailer, and reduce our outbound shipping costs. |
|
|
|
| · | Wholesale Operations. Our goal is to increase consumer demand through advertising and public relations while our wholesale operations expand our offering to distributors, retailers, and e-tailers across every channel of adult, mass market, drug, and specialty accounts. For wholesalers thinking about adding Sexual Wellness products to their retail or online store, our Liberator product line is typically one of the first “safer” products presented, as it can be promoted as an assistive aid to sexual positioning. As the mainstream demand for Sexual Wellness products grows, our sales staff is training and educating new resellers on how to get started in this category. For retail display, we offer mainstream packaging in a variety of sizes and price points to meet their customers’ particular demographics. We offer all our brands for sale through various e-tailers, and for these customers, we maintain brand continuity by providing rich product content, photography and instructional videos for use on their websites. We also provide fulfillment services and can drop-ship orders directly to their customer, frequently the same day the order is received. |

Products, Principal Markets and Methods of Distribution
Liberator Products
We developed a patented brand category called “Liberator Bedroom Adventure Gear”®. The products in this collection are designed to elevate, create motion, and create surfaces and textures that expand the sexual repertoire and make the act of love more exciting. Liberator Bedroom Adventure Gear combines functional design with sensuous textures that transform ordinary bedrooms into supportive landscapes for intimacy. Liberator products present angles, elevations, curves, and motion that help people of all sizes, including those with back injuries and other medical conditions, find comfortable ways to connect intimately while assisting their stamina and performance.
Liberator foam-based products (called “Liberator Shapes”) are manufactured in a variety of heights and widths to accommodate variations in the human body. They consist of differently shaped cushions and props that are available in an assortment of fabric colors to add to the visual excitement. Each of the product profiles of the Liberator Shapes is unique, designed to introduce positions to the sexual experience that were previously difficult to achieve or impossible to achieve with standard pillows or cushions. Liberator Shapes are manufactured from structured polyurethane foam and cut at various angles, platforms, and profiles. The foam base is encased in a tight, fluid-resistant polyester shell, helping the cushions to maintain their shape. Liberator Shapes that are designed to be used in tandem are covered in a proprietary microfiber cover that allows the “Shapes” to adhere to each other without slipping loose. This allows for positioning freedom.
We have also developed vacuum-compressed large profile designs commonly called “Love Loungers or Tantric / Yoga Chaises”. Most of the sex furniture pieces are made from contoured polyurethane foam and covered in a variety of fabrics and colors. These items are marketed as the Esse® Chaise, Equus Wave®, and Prelude® Bench, all in a variety of sizes. Larger designs include products based on shredded polyurethane foam trim encased in a wide range of fabric types and colors and sold under our Zeppelin ® product offering. The Liberator larger profile designs can also be used as lounge seating when not being used for relaxed interaction and creative intimacy. Newer styles are now flat packed with wooden bases and maple feet.
We conduct our wholesale business for Liberator sexual wellness products through four primary channels: (1) adult and female-friendly retailers and specialty boutiques, (2) e-tailers who sell our products through adult, mass market, drug, and other sites offering sexual wellness products, (3) mail order catalogers, and (4) wholesale distributors of adult / sexual wellness products. These wholesale accounts have approximately 1,000 retail locations and websites in the United States and Canada. We have a growing number of retailers who have added a dedicated Liberator exhibition concept to their merchandising space.
Jaxx Casual Seating
The Company manufactures a line of contemporary casual indoor and outdoor seating under the Jaxx® brand. Jaxx bean bags are an offshoot from Liberator manufacturing as it provides additional revenue from repurposing our polyurethane foam trim into shredded bean bag fill.
The Jaxx indoor beanbag collection includes an offering of adult and children size beanbags in a variety of fabrics, faux-furs and vinyl. The Jaxx product line also includes solid foam indoor furniture collections and outdoor furniture collections that use polystyrene bead filling. The Jaxx product line and accessory products are sold through the following wholesale channels: (1) modern furniture e-tailers, (2) mass marketers, (3) specialty retailers, (4) interior designers, (5) schools and daycare centers, and (6) retail furniture stores. We also offer Jaxx private label and custom designs for large regional and national furniture chains through our Foamlabs brand. The Company also owns and manages a website under the URL www.JaxxLiving.com for direct-to-consumer sales of Jaxx products.
Avana® Top-of-Bed Comfort Products
The Company sells a unique collection of comfort products that aid in sleep, meditation, and relaxation under the Avana® brand. These products include a diverse offering of top-of-bed support cushions and props, many of which are assistive in relieving medical conditions associated with acid reflux, surgery recovery, and chronic pain.
The Avana product line is sold through e-merchants (including Amazon.com, Walmart.com, medical product distributors and specialty e-tailers), mail order catalogers and through our website under the URL www.AvanaComfort.com. We believe that our Avana products compete effectively on the basis of good design, through offering a wide-range of designer colors and fabrics and supported by thousands of 5-star product reviews.

Products Purchased for Resale
We import high-quality pleasure objects from around the world for sale on our direct-to-consumer website Liberator.com.
Sales and Distribution
Our sales management team is organized by market channel and by customer type. We have sales personnel who routinely visit sexual wellness retailers to assist in product training, merchandising and stocking of selling areas. Through our in-house wholesale sales organization, we engage e-merchants and retailers directly and then either ship to them on a wholesale basis or provide fulfillment services by drop-shipping directly to their customers. In international markets, the Company has a direct sales model with a US-based salesperson. This salesperson is responsible for wholesale sales, marketing operations and customer service in Canada and the European Union and other international markets. For European customers, orders are filled from our exclusive Germany-based distributor or directly from our facilities in Atlanta.
As is customary in the sexual wellness and casual furniture industry, sales to customers are generally made pursuant to purchase orders, and we do not have long-term or exclusive contracts with any of our retail customers or wholesale distributors. We believe that our continuing relationships with our customers are based upon our ability to provide a wide selection and reliable source of sexual wellness and casual furniture products, combined with our expertise in marketing and new product introduction.
Internet Websites
We design and operate our websites using in-house development teams and our creative group using all media and social platforms to promote visibility and sales conversions. We also maintain a B-to-B website allowing wholesalers to both place orders and track delivery schedules.
Liberator.com is promoted as a direct B-to-C website, and entertainment and educational venue, where consumers can watch product demonstration videos, peruse ezine blog content on sexual wellness topics, and watch non-pornographic videos on the many facets of human sexuality and erotic expression.
Jaxxliving.com offers a collection of contemporary indoor and outdoor fashion seating, daybeds, children’s play couches and modular Panelist wall mounted headboards.
AvanaComfort.com presents our collection of top-of-bed comfort products, specialty pillows, and yoga inspired furniture.
Sources and Availability of Raw Materials
We obtain all of the raw materials and component parts used to produce our products from outside sources without long term supply contracts. A number of components, including certain fabrics and polyurethane foam are sourced from suppliers who currently serve as our sole or primary source of supply. We believe we can obtain these raw materials and components from other sources of supply, although we could experience some short-term disruption in our ability to fulfill orders in the event of an unexpected loss of supply from one of the primary suppliers. We utilize dual sourcing on most fabrics and components when effective.
Changes in U.S. trade policy, including tariffs on certain goods imported into the United States from international suppliers had increased the costs of certain raw materials, parts or components used in our products. Such increases did not materially affect our sales and our business. However, due to the increases in shipping costs related to spikes in fuel cost, we increased the selling prices of our products.
Major Customers
Sales to (and through) Amazon accounted for 36% of our net sales during the year ended June 30, 2026 and 34% of our net sales for the year ended June 30, 2025. The loss of, or a significant adverse change in our relationship with, any of our largest customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Competition
We compete with other marketers of sexual wellness, lifestyle and casual seating products both within and outside the U.S. The sexual wellness, bean bag and comfort products are highly fragmented and competition for the sale of such products comes from many types of e-tailers and retailers across diverse channels.
For Liberator products, our primary competitive advantage is consumer recognition of our iconic brand. Due to the strength of our brand, we have some direct competition for a portion of our Liberator branded products. In fact, many e-commerce websites refer to Liberator as a product category and not as a generic sex furniture listing. And since we sell through multiple sales channels, we provide consumers with the ability to shop for Liberator intimacy products in an environment or website that they are most comfortable in. We also believe that we differentiate ourselves from conventional sexual wellness products based on our utility of design and overall customer satisfaction as it relates to enhanced intimacy.
For Jaxx and Avana products, we believe our primary competitive advantage is good designs, our offering of a wide range of designer colors and fabrics, good price to value, and our positive consumer reviews.
For our pleasure products purchased for Resale, competition among retailers of adult products and web-based marketers is high. Although we compete with retail and internet businesses and now mass and drug retailers that sell sexual wellness products including vibrators, pleasure objects, accessories and similar merchandise, we believe that this opens new channels of distribution for our Liberator products and that we are able to compete favorably as our Liberator products are unique, are couple-centric, and are assistive devices for couples with sexual limitations and issues.
For the Liberator e-commerce website, other competitive factors include the effectiveness of our electronic customer mailing lists, maintaining natural search listing, advertising response rates, website design and functionality. The broad range of designs, color choice, fabrics and accessories that we offer helps us to differentiate ourselves and allows us to compete favorably against many other adult or sexual wellness websites. Liberator.com also competes against numerous mainstream websites, many of which have a greater volume of web traffic, greater financial strength and marketing resources.
We believe competition in our industries is based on, among other things, the ability to deliver the right product at the right time, product quality and safety, innovation, customer service and price. We believe we compete favorably with other companies because of our ability to provide a broad product offering for customers, our vertically integrated manufacturing operation which allows us to quickly respond to customer demand, our commitment to quality and safety, and our commitment to minimizing our environmental impact.
Government Regulation
We are subject to customs, truth-in-advertising and other laws, including consumer protection regulations that regulate the promotion and sale of merchandise and the operation of warehouse facilities. We monitor changes in these laws and believe that we are in material compliance with applicable laws.
Intellectual Property
The Liberator trademark is registered with the United States Patent and Trademark office and with the registries of many foreign countries. In addition, we were issued approximately 20 other product name trademarks and trade names including: “Bedroom Adventure Gear”®, Ramp®, Wedge®, Stage®, Esse®, Zeppelin®, Hipster®, Wing®, Equus®, Jaxx®, Avana®, and Bonbon®. We believe our trademarks have significant value and we intend to continue to vigorously protect them against infringement.
Human Capital and Resources
As of June 30, 2026, we had 189 full time employees and 1 part time employee. The Company’s employment levels may change seasonally based on current and anticipated order levels. Additional staffing is typically required to support the peak holiday period through Valentine’s Day. None of our employees are represented by a union. We have had no labor-related work stoppages, and we believe our relationships with our employees are good. Human capital management is critical to our ongoing business success, which requires investing in our people. Our aim is to create a highly engaged and motivated workforce where employees are inspired by leadership, involved in purpose-driven, meaningful work, and have opportunities for growth and development. We are committed to creating and maintaining a work environment where employees are treated with respect and dignity. We value our diverse employees and provide career and professional development opportunities that foster the success of our company. An effective approach to human capital management requires that we invest in talent, development, culture, and employee engagement. We aim to create an environment where our employees are encouraged to contribute positively and fulfill their potential. We emphasize our core values of innovation, encouragement, motivation, and curiosity with our employees to instill our culture and create an environment of growth and positivity.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors.
This section describes circumstances or events that could have a negative effect on our financial results or operations or that could change, for the worse, existing trends in our businesses. The occurrence of one or more of the circumstances or events described below could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows or on the trading prices of our common stock. The risks and uncertainties described in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties that currently are not known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial also may adversely affect our businesses and operation. Although we have attempted to list comprehensively these important factors, we caution you that other factors may in the future prove to be important in affecting our results of operations. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of these factors, nor can we assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.
We have been adversely affected by increases in raw material and shipping costs related to increases in fuel cost.
We have experienced increased raw material and shipping costs as higher fuel costs, including those associated with the war in Iran, have raised transportation, logistics, and supplier costs across our supply chain. These increases have adversely affected our overall cost structure, liquidity, business, financial condition, and results of operations. We were unable to fully absorb these higher costs through operating efficiencies or other cost-reduction measures and, as a result, were forced to pass a portion of these increased costs on to customers through higher selling prices. Additional increases in fuel, raw material, labor, or shipping costs, or any supply shortages or related disruptions, could further increase our costs and may negatively affect demand for our products, market sentiment, operating income, and results of operations. If we are unable to take effective measures in a timely manner to mitigate these cost pressures, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Competition from other brands may hinder the development of our business.
Increased competitor consolidations, marketplace competition, and competitive product and pricing pressures could impact our earnings, market share, and volume growth. If, due to such pressure or other competitive threats, we are unable to maintain or develop our sales sufficiently, we may be unable to achieve our current revenue and financial targets. As a means of maintaining and expanding our sales revenues, we intend to introduce additional products. We may not be successful in doing this, or it may take us longer than anticipated to achieve market acceptance of these new brands, if at all. Other companies may be more successful in this regard over the long term. Competition, particularly from companies with greater financial and marketing resources than ours, could have a material adverse effect on our existing markets, as well as on our ability to expand the market for our products.

| Table of Contents |
Our reliance on logistics service providers, distributors, ecommerce and social media platforms and retailers could affect our ability to efficiently and profitably promote, sell, distribute and market our products, maintain our existing markets and expand our business into other geographic markets.
Our ability to maintain and expand our existing markets for our products, and to establish markets in new geographic distribution areas, is dependent on our ability to establish and maintain successful relationships with reliable logistics service providers, distributors, ecommerce and social media platforms and retailers strategically positioned to serve those areas. Most of our distributors and retailers promote, sell and distribute competing products, and our products may represent a small portion of their businesses. The success of our distribution network depends on the performance of the logistics service providers, distributors, ecommerce and social media platforms and retailers in our network. There is a risk they may not adequately perform their functions within the network by, without limitation, failing to distribute to sufficient retailers or positioning our products in localities that may not be receptive to our product. Our ability to incentivize and motivate distributors to manage and sell our products is affected by competition from other companies who have greater resources than we do. To the extent that our distributors and retailers are distracted from selling our products or do not employ sufficient efforts in managing and selling our products, our sales and results of operations could be adversely affected. Furthermore, such third parties’ financial position or market share may deteriorate, which could adversely affect our distribution, marketing and sales activities.
We are dependent on our suppliers and do not have supply agreements with our manufacturers. Events adversely affecting our suppliers, manufacturers and contractors would adversely affect us.
If we experience significant increased sales, and since we do not have supply agreements to ensure sufficient reserves of materials, there can be no assurance that additional materials for our products will be available when required or on terms that are favorable to us, or that a supplier would allocate sufficient materials for our products to us in order to meet our requirements or fill our orders in a timely manner which could lead to delays to our customers, which could hurt our relationships with our customers, result in negative publicity, damage our brand and adversely affect our business, prospects and operating results.
We intend to maintain a full supply chain for the provision of our products. Suppliers, manufacturers, service providers and contractors may elect, at any time, to decline or withdraw services necessary for our operations. Loss of these suppliers, manufacturers, service providers and contractors may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. In addition, any significant interruption, negative change in the availability or economics of the supply chain or increase in the prices for the production of our products provided by any such third-party suppliers, manufacturers, service providers and contractors could materially impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Any inability to secure required supplies or to do so on appropriate terms could have a materially adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Our Board currently consists of a single director, and we are substantially dependent upon our Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder.
Louis Friedman is CEO, President, Chairman/sole director and controlling shareholder. Consequently, Board oversight is concentrated. There are no independent directors; no Audit/Compensation/Nominating Committees, and no audit committee financial expert. The death, incapacity, resignation or unavailability of Mr. Friedman could materially disrupt governance and operations.
Our controlling shareholder has the ability to determine the outcome of matters submitted to shareholders.
Mr. Friedman owns the Series A convertible preferred shares described herein. Because of his voting power, minority/common holders may be unable to:

ITEM 1C. Cybersecurity
Like all companies that utilize technology, we are subject to threats of breaches of our technology systems. To mitigate the threat to our business, we take a comprehensive approach to cybersecurity risk management. Our board of directors and our management actively oversee our risk management program, including the management of cybersecurity risks. We have established policies, standards, processes and practices for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats, including those discussed in our Risk Factors. We have devoted resources to implement and maintain security measures to meet regulatory requirements and shareholder expectations, and we intend to continue to make investments to maintain the security of our data and cybersecurity infrastructure. While there can be no guarantee that our policies and procedures will be properly followed in every instance or that those policies and procedures will be effective, we believe that our company’s sustained investment in these efforts and technologies have put the Company in a position to protect against potential compromises, and we do not believe that risks from prior cybersecurity threats have materially affected our business to date. We can provide no assurance that there will not be incidents in the future or that past or future attacks will not materially affect us, including our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition.
Risk management and strategy.
We employ a multi-layered cybersecurity defense strategy that includes:
| · | Network and endpoint protection: Utilizing firewalls, intrusion detection systems, antivirus software, and advanced encryption protocols to safeguard sensitive data and systems. |
|
|
|
| · | Employee training and awareness programs: Educating employees on cybersecurity best practices and conducting phishing simulations to promote vigilance against social engineering attacks. |
|
|
|
| · | Incident detection and response plans: Maintaining real-time monitoring and implementing a structured incident response plan that allows us to quickly detect, respond to, and recover from cyber incidents. |
|
|
|
| · | Third-party risk management: Assessing the cybersecurity controls of vendors and partners to |

| · | Operational disruption from ransomware or other cyberattacks. |
|
|
|
| · | Data breaches that could compromise customer or proprietary information. |
|
|
|
| · | Regulatory and legal exposure arising from cybersecurity failures. |
As part of our risk management framework, we regularly assess whether any cybersecurity incidents, or the likelihood of such incidents, could materially affect our business. We are also committed to continuous improvements to address emerging threats.
Governance.
Our board of directors plays an
The Board is also regularly briefed by our director of information technology (IT) on the Company’s cybersecurity policies, risk assessments, and mitigation strategies. This reporting structure allows the board to remain engaged with the company’s efforts to address and manage evolving cyber threats, ensuring that cybersecurity is aligned with our overall risk management framework.
Management, led by the director of IT, plays a critical role in assessing and managing material risks related to cybersecurity. This includes implementing day-to-day cybersecurity measures, conducting regular risk assessments, and ensuring the timely response to any cyber threats or incidents. The director of IT is responsible for ensuring that cybersecurity is integrated into our company’s broader risk management strategy, with direct reporting lines to both senior executives and the board of directors.

Additionally, management conducts regular tabletop exercises and incident simulations to assess readiness for potential cyber threats and continuously evaluates the effectiveness of our cybersecurity defenses.
ITEM 2. Properties.
We are headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia at 2745 Bankers Industrial Drive, Atlanta, GA 30360. We lease a 140,000 square feet building on eight acres, which we believe allows for expansion when needed. Our facility houses manufacturing, distribution and fulfillment, call center, in-house advertising and creative departments, product design group, and administrative offices. On November 7, 2025, the Company entered into an agreement with its landlord on a lease for its then current facilities for 56 months, beginning November 7, 2025. The lease includes four months of rent abatement totaling $333,000 beginning March 1, 2027. Under the lease, the monthly rent on the facility will be $58,053 with annual escalations of 3% to February 2027 at $61,605. From March 1, 2027, the monthly rent will increase to $83,250 with 3.5% annual increases with the final 4 months of the lease ending at $92,241. In addition, the Company will pay the landlord proportional share of project expenses and taxes estimated at $23,421 per month. The rent expense for the twelve months ended June 30, 2026 was $728,419. The rent expense for the twelve months ended June 30, 2025 was $652,752.
Our facilities are currently adequate for their intended purposes and are adequately maintained.

Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2026 Compared to the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2025
Net Sales. Net sales grew 5.8% in fiscal 2026 compared to fiscal 2025. Our Direct to Consumer segment rose by $0.1 million, or 2%, compared to fiscal 2025, while our Wholesale segment rose by $1.3 million or 8%. Wholesale increase was related to the continued increase in our dropship network. The direct sales channel includes consumer sales via our three websites. The increase in this segment was driven by new marketing efforts from social media influencers and pay per click. The increase in wholesale sales was due to higher demand from our International and new customers. Fiscal 2025 net sales have been increased by $1,163,648 for third-party marketplace fulfillment fees now recorded in selling expense, as described in Note 2, and the growth rates above are presented on that comparable basis.
Gross profit. Gross profit, derived from net sales less the cost of product sales, includes the cost of materials, direct labor, manufacturing overhead, and depreciation. Total gross profit as a percentage of sales for the year ended June 30, 2026, increased to 31.5% from 29.5% in the prior year. Gross profit dollars increased to $8,613,562 from $7,633,516 in the prior year, representing a 12.8% increase. Fiscal 2025 gross profit and gross margin as presented reflect the $1,163,648 revision described in Note 2, and both years are presented on a comparable basis. The Company increased the Inventory Reserve by $68,598 to $300,877 which negatively impacted the Gross Profit for the year. The Company also continued to implement cost reduction strategies such as sourcing more raw materials from China and India, reducing warehouse and production headcounts, and system improvements to better forecast inventory requirements. The impact of import tariffs on raw materials may offset some of the savings from lower cost manufacturers and may impact our gross margin in the future. Gross margin during fiscal 2026 was also negatively affected by higher fuel, freight and raw material costs arising from the armed conflict involving Iran, which began during our third fiscal quarter and disrupted shipping through the Middle East. Benchmark crude oil prices rose sharply during that period and have remained volatile through the date of this report. The cost reduction initiatives described above, offset these higher input costs during fiscal 2026, and gross margin improved notwithstanding the cost pressure. Because a substantial portion of our raw materials is sourced from Asia, a prolonged conflict, further disruption to Middle East shipping lanes, or a sustained increase in fuel prices could raise our inbound freight and raw material costs faster than we are able to offset them and could adversely affect our gross margin, operating results and liquidity in fiscal 2027.

Operating expenses. Excluding depreciation expense, total operating expenses for the year ended June 30, 2026, were 27% of net sales, or $7,386,273, compared to 28% of net sales, or $7,274,981 for the year ended June 30, 2025. The 1.5% increase in operating expenses from the prior year was primarily due to higher selling expenses related increased payroll costs, partially offset by tighter cost controls for G&A expenses. Fiscal 2025 operating expenses include $1,163,648 of third-party marketplace fulfillment fees reclassified from net sales, as described in Note 2, so both years are presented on a comparable basis.
Other income (expense). Other expense increased to ($446,861) from expense of ($378,696) in the prior fiscal year. Increase was due to short term loan interest expense.
Income tax expense. Income tax expense was $674,636 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026, compared to $0 in the prior fiscal year. Fiscal 2026 income tax expense consisted of a deferred tax provision of approximately $719,000, partially offset by the reversal of approximately $44,000 of prior tax accruals after the Internal Revenue Service and the Georgia Department of Revenue accepted the related amended returns. The deferred tax provision principally reflects deferred tax liabilities associated with right-of-use assets, including those arising from the November 7, 2025 renewal of the operating lease for our manufacturing facility, and with property and equipment. Significant items in the reconciliation of income tax expense to the U.S. federal statutory rate included an increase in the valuation allowance of approximately $382,000, state and local income taxes of approximately $101,000, and a prior-period deferred tax adjustment of approximately $137,000. There was no current income tax provision in either fiscal yeart.
Net Income/ (Loss). We had a net loss from operations of ($245,718) or ($0.00) per diluted share, for the year ended June 30, 2026 compared with net loss from operations of ($448,659) or $0.00 per diluted share, for the year ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in loss is due to flat operating expenses and increased gross profit, which was mostly offset by the tax impact of the new operating lease for the facility.
Financial Information about Our Business Segmentation
We conduct our business through two segments: Direct (consisting of our Internet websites) and Wholesale (consisting of our stocking resellers, drop-ship accounts, contract manufacturing, and distributor accounts). During the last two years, substantially all of our revenue has been generated within North America, and all of our long-lived assets are located in the United States.

Variability of Results
We have experienced significant quarterly fluctuations in operating results and anticipate that these fluctuations may continue in future periods. Operating results have fluctuated due to changes in sales levels to consumers and wholesalers, competition, seasonality costs associated with new product introductions, and increases in raw material costs due to changing import tariffs. In addition, future operating results may fluctuate due to factors beyond our control, such as increases in raw material costs, labor cost increases, foreign exchange fluctuations, changes in government regulations, and economic changes in the region where we operate and sell. A portion of our operating expenses are relatively fixed and the timing of expense level increases is largely based on future sales forecasts. Therefore, if net sales are below expectations in any given period, the adverse impact on the results of operations may be magnified by our inability to adjust spending in certain areas meaningfully or the inability to adjust spending quickly enough, as in personnel and administrative costs, to
compensate for a sales shortfall. We may also choose to increase spending in response to market conditions, and these decisions may adversely affect the financial condition and results of operations.

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $773,000 for the year ended June 30, 2026 compared to cash used in operating activities of $410,000 in the prior year. The improvement was primarily attributable to increase in net sales, expansion of the gross margin, deferred tax expense and a reduction in inventory.

| Table of Contents |
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was ($29,000) for the year ended June 30, 2026, compared to ($41,000) in the prior year. Cash used in investing activities was for expansion of the woodworking equipment. To expand the woodworking capabilities, a glue machine $5,000, joiner and planer $22,000.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was ($280,000) for the year ended June 30, 2026, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $158,000 in the prior year. Cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to repayments of secured notes payable and equipment notes, partially offset by borrowings under the revolving line of credit and proceeds from a $250,000 secured note payable entered into in September 2025.
Capital Resources
We expect total capital expenditures for fiscal 2027 to be less than $100,000, funded primarily by equipment loans and, to a lesser extent, anticipated operating cash flows and borrowings under the line of credit with Advance Financial Corporation. This includes capital expenditure supporting our usual operations.
At June 30, 2026, the Company had working capital of $1,865,702, compared to $1,022,459 at June 30, 2025, an increase of $843,243. The Company believes that it has sufficient working capital to meet financial needs over the next twelve months.
If our business plans and cost estimates are inaccurate, or if our operations require additional cash, or if we deviate from our current plans, we might need to seek additional debt financing for specific projects or ongoing operational needs. Such debt could harm our business if we cannot secure further financing on acceptable terms. Additionally, any debt we take on in the future could come with restrictive covenants that limit our flexibility in planning for or responding to changes in our business. If we fail to comply with these covenants, our lenders could accelerate the repayment of our debt or restrict our access to more borrowings, which could limit our operational flexibility and threaten our ability to continue operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not use off-balance sheet arrangements with unconsolidated entities or related parties, nor do we use other forms of off-balance sheet arrangements. Accordingly, our liquidity and capital resources are not subject to off-balance sheet risks from unconsolidated entities. As of June 30, 2026, we did not have any material off-balance-sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, cash requirements or capital resources.
Effect of Recently Issued Accounting Standards and Estimates
We do not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements included under Item 8 in this report have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements. Preparing financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and their accompanying notes. We have identified certain policies that we believe are important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations. These policies require the application of significant judgment by our management. We base our estimates on our historical experience, industry standards, and various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. An adverse effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, and results of operations could occur if circumstances change that alter the various assumptions or conditions used in such estimates or assumptions. Our critical accounting policies include those listed below.
| 14 |
| Table of Contents |
Revenue Recognition
We record revenue based on the five-step model which includes: (1) identifying the contract with the customer; (2) identifying the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determining the transaction price; (4) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (5) recognizing revenue when the performance obligations are satisfied. Substantially all of our revenue is generated by fulfilling orders for the purchase of manufactured products and product purchased for resale to retailers, wholesalers, or direct to consumers via online channels, with each order considered to be a distinct performance obligation. These orders may be formal purchase orders, verbal phone orders, e-mail orders or orders received online. Shipping and handling activities for which we are responsible under the terms and conditions of the order are not accounted for as performance obligations but as fulfillment costs. These activities are required to fulfill our promise to transfer the goods and are expensed when revenue is recognized. The impact of this policy election is insignificant as it aligns with our current practice.
Revenue is measured as the net amount of consideration expected to be received to fulfill a performance obligation. We have elected to exclude sales, use and similar taxes from the measurement of the transaction price. The impact of this policy election is insignificant, as it aligns with our current practice. The amount of consideration expected to be received and revenue recognized includes variable consideration estimates, including costs for trade promotion programs, coupons, returns, and early payment discounts. Such estimates are calculated using historical averages adjusted for any expected changes due to current business conditions and experience. We review and update these estimates at the end of each reporting period and the impact of any adjustments are recognized in the period the adjustments are identified. In assessing whether collection of consideration from a customer is probable, we consider the customer’s ability and intent to pay that amount of consideration when it is due. Payment of invoices is due as specified in the underlying customer agreement, typically 30 days from the invoice date, which occurs on the date of transfer of control of the products to the customer. Revenue is recognized at the point in time that control of the ordered products is transferred to the customer. Generally, this occurs at the time of the shipment from our warehouse. or in some cases, picked up from one of our distribution centers by the customer.
Allowance for Credit Losses
We sell certain products directly to consumers through third-party online marketplaces, including Amazon. We have evaluated these arrangements and determined that we are the principal, as we control the products before they are transferred to the customer, are primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the products, bear inventory risk, and have discretion in establishing pricing. Accordingly, revenue from these sales is recognized on a gross basis. Marketplace, referral, commission, fulfillment, shipping, and related fees associated with certain online sales, which were previously recorded as a reduction of net sales, are included in other sales and marketing expenses. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The reclassification had no impact on operating income (loss), net income (loss), or cash flows.
Inventories
We value inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value on an item-by-item basis and establish reserves equal to all or a portion of the related inventory to reflect situations in which the cost of the inventory is not expected to be recovered. This requires us to make estimates regarding the net realizable value of our inventory, including an assessment for excess and obsolete inventory. Once we establish an inventory reserve amount in a fiscal period, the reduced inventory value is maintained until the inventory is sold or otherwise disposed of. In evaluating whether inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, management considers such factors as the amount of inventory on-hand, the estimated time required to sell such inventory, the foreseeable demand within a specified time horizon and current and expected market conditions. Based on this evaluation, we record adjustments to cost of goods sold to adjust inventory to its net realizable value. These adjustments are estimates, which could vary significantly, either favorably or unfavorably, from actual requirements if future economic conditions, customer demand or other factors differ from expectations. Finished goods and goods in process include a provision for manufacturing overhead, including depreciation.
Accounting for Income Taxes
We utilize the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. We recognize deferred tax liabilities or assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities. We regularly assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. We consider projected future taxable income and ongoing tax planning strategies in assessing the amount of the valuation allowance necessary to offset our deferred tax assets that will not be recoverable. We have recorded and continue to carry a full valuation allowance against our gross deferred tax assets that will not reverse against deferred tax liabilities within the scheduled reversal period. If we determine in the future that it is more likely than not that we will realize all or a portion of our deferred tax assets, we will adjust our valuation allowance in the period we make the determination. We expect to provide a full valuation allowance on our future tax benefits until we can sustain a level of profitability that demonstrates our ability to realize these assets. At June 30, 2026, we carried a valuation allowance of $1.9 million against our gross deferred tax assets.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We assess the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An asset or asset group is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flows the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If an asset or asset group is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. If the estimated fair value is less than the book value, the asset is written down to the estimated fair value, and an impairment loss is recognized.
In fiscal year 2026, we generated positive cash flow from operations compared to negative cash flow from operations in fiscal year 2025. If our long-term future results do not yield positive cash flows in excess of the carrying amount of our long-lived assets, we would anticipate possible future impairments of those assets.
Considerable management judgment is necessary in estimating future cash flows and other factors affecting the valuation of long-lived assets, including operating and macroeconomic factors that may affect them. We use historical financial information, internal plans and projections, and industry information to make such estimates.

As used herein, Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest income, interest expense and financing costs, depreciation, stock-based compensation and income taxes expense. We have excluded depreciation and stock-based compensation expenses because they are non-cash expenses that do not reflect the cash-based operations of the Company, and we have excluded interest income, interest expense and financing costs, and income taxes because they reflect our capital structure and tax position rather than our core operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that is not required by or defined under GAAP. The presentation of this financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial measures prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, including the net income of the Company or net cash provided by operating activities.
Management recognizes that non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the items associated with the Company’s net income as determined in accordance with GAAP and are not a substitute for or a measure of the Company’s profitability or net earnings. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because we believe it is useful to investors as a measure of comparative operating performance and because it is less susceptible to variances in actual performance resulting from depreciation and amortization and non-cash charges for stock-based compensation expense and loss on disposal of assets.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
Luvu Brands, Inc.
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Luvu Brands, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”), as of June 30, 2026 and 2025, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended June 30, 2026, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2026 and 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended June 30, 2026, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. These standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the board of directors and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2024.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Basis of Presentation
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of our wholly owned operating subsidiaries, OneUp and Foam Labs. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. During fiscal 2026, the Company determined that fees charged by Amazon online marketplace for order fulfillment, storage and related logistics services had been presented as a reduction of net sales in fiscal 2025. These fees are paid in exchange for distinct fulfillment and logistics services that the marketplace provides to the Company and are recorded as an operating expense. Accordingly, the fiscal 2025 comparative amounts have been revised to increase net sales and gross profit by $
The effect of the revision on the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2025 is as follows (in thousands):

Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates in these consolidated financial statements include estimates of: income taxes; tax valuation reserves; allowances for doubtful accounts; inventory valuation and reserves, share-based compensation; and useful lives for depreciation and amortization. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.
Revenue Recognition
We record revenue based on the five-step model which includes: (1) identifying the contract with the customer; (2) identifying the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determining the transaction price; (4) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (5) recognizing revenue when the performance obligations are satisfied. Substantially all of our revenue is generated by fulfilling orders for the purchase of manufactured products and product purchased for resale to retailers, wholesalers, or direct to consumers via online channels, with each order considered to be a distinct performance obligation. These orders may be formal purchase orders, verbal phone orders, e-mail orders or orders received online. Shipping and handling activities for which we are responsible under the terms and conditions of the order are not accounted for as performance obligations but as fulfillment costs. These activities are required to fulfill our promise to transfer the goods and are expensed when revenue is recognized. The impact of this policy election is insignificant as it aligns with our current practice.
Revenue is measured as the net amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for fulfilling a performance obligation. We have elected to exclude sales, use and similar taxes from the measurement of the transaction price. The impact of this policy election is insignificant, as it aligns with our current practice. The amount of consideration expected to be received and revenue recognized includes estimates of variable consideration, which includes costs for trade promotion programs, coupons, returns and early payment discounts. Such estimates are calculated using historical averages adjusted for any expected changes due to current business conditions and experience. We review and update these estimates at the end of each reporting period and the impact of any adjustments are recognized in the period the adjustments are identified. In assessing whether collection of consideration from a customer is probable, we consider the customer’s ability and intent to pay that amount of consideration when it is due. Payment of invoices is due as specified in the underlying customer agreement, typically 30 days from the invoice date, which occurs on the date of transfer of control of the products to the customer. Revenue is recognized at the point in time that control of the ordered products is transferred to the customer. We sell certain products directly to consumers through third-party online marketplaces, including Amazon. We have evaluated these arrangements and determined that we are the principal, as we control the products before they are transferred to the customer, are primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the products, bear inventory risk, and have discretion in establishing pricing. Accordingly, revenue from these sales is recognized on a gross basis. Marketplace, referral, commission, fulfillment, shipping, and related fees associated with certain online sales are included in other selling and marketing expenses and are not netted against net sales. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The reclassification had no impact on operating income (loss), net income (loss), or cash flows.
Deferred revenues
Deferred revenues are recorded when the Company has received consideration (i.e. advance payment) before satisfying its performance obligations. Deferred revenues primarily relate to gift cards purchased but not used, prior to the end of the fiscal period. Our total deferred revenue as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025 was $
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold includes raw material, labor, manufacturing overhead, and royalty expense.
Shipping and Handling Costs
We include fees earned on the shipment of our products to customers in sales and include costs incurred on the shipment of product to customers in costs of goods sold.

| Table of Contents |
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Allowance for Credit Loss
The allowance for credit losses reflects management’s estimate of expected credit losses over the contractual life of the accounts receivable balance, measured in accordance with ASC 326. The Company determines the allowance based on historical loss experience, specifically identified nonpaying accounts, and current conditions as of the balance sheet date. The Company reviews its allowance for credit losses monthly, focusing on significant individual past due balances over 90 days. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers.
The following is a summary of Accounts Receivable as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025.

The Company estimates expected credit losses on trade receivables and contract assets in accordance with ASC 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. Effective July 1, 2025, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Practical Expedient and Accounting Policy Election for Estimating Expected Credit Losses, and elected the practical expedient permitted therein.
Under this expedient, the Company assumes that current economic conditions as of the balance sheet date remain unchanged over the life of the financial assets. This approach simplifies the estimation of expected credit losses by removing the requirement to forecast future economic conditions for assets with contractual maturities of one year or less.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company had net accounts receivable totaling $
The Company will continue to monitor credit risk and adjust its allowance methodology as necessary. No significant changes to the allowance methodology were made during the fiscal year.
Inventories and Inventory Reserves
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Net realizable value is defined as sales price less cost to dispose of and a normal profit margin. Inventory costs include materials, labor, depreciation and overhead. The Company establishes reserves for excess and obsolete inventory, based on prevailing circumstances and judgment for consideration of current events, such as economic conditions, that may affect inventory. The reserve required to record inventory at lower of cost or net realizable value may be adjusted in response to changing conditions.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company maintains its cash accounts with two banks located in Georgia. The total cash balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
At June 30, 2026 and 2025, our financial instruments included cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term debt, and other long-term debt.
The fair values of these financial instruments approximated their carrying values based on either their short maturity or current terms for similar instruments.
The Company measures the fair value of its assets and liabilities under the guidance of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 does not require any new fair value measurements, but its provisions apply to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurement.
ASC 820 clarifies that 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 based on the highest and best use of the asset or liability. 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. ASC 820 requires the Company to use valuation techniques to measure
fair value that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized as follows:
| · | Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets; |
|
|
|
| · | Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or market-corroborated inputs; and |
|
|
|
| · | Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions about how market participants would price the assets or liabilities. |
The valuation techniques that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:
A. Market approach - Uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.
B. Income approach - Uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based on current market expectations about those future amounts, including present value techniques, option-pricing models and excess earnings method.
C. Cost approach - Based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).

Expenditures for major renewals and betterments which extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When properties are disposed of, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is recognized currently.
Operating Leases
On November 7, 2025,
Under ASC 842, which was adopted July 1, 2019, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present. Most leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets, lease liabilities and, if applicable, long-term lease liabilities. The Company elected not to recognize leases with a term less than one year on its balance sheet. Operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets and their corresponding lease liabilities are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As a result, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rates, which are the rates incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term, an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.
In accordance with the guidance in ASU 2016-02, components of a lease should be split into three categories: lease components (e.g. land, building, etc.), non-lease components (e.g. common area maintenance, consumables, etc.), and non-components (e.g. property taxes, insurance, etc.) Then the fixed and in-substance fixed contract consideration (including any related to non-components) must be allocated based on fair values to the lease components and non-lease components. Although separation of lease and non-lease components is required, the Company elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components. The lease component results in an operating right-of-use asset being recorded on the balance sheet and amortized on a straight-line basis as lease expense.
The Company also leases certain equipment under operating leases, as more fully described in NOTE 13 - Commitments and Contingencies.
Segmentation Information
The Company has identified two reportable sales segmentations: Direct to Consumer and Wholesale. Direct to Consumer includes product sales through the Company’s three e-commerce sites. Wholesale includes Liberator, Jaxx, and Avana branded products sold to distributors and retailers, purchased products sold to retailers, and private label items sold to other resellers. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is Louis Friedman, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The CODM uses the segment information presented below to allocate resources and make investment decisions for each segment.

Recent accounting pronouncements
From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard-setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. The Company has adopted ASU 2023-07 regarding business segmentation reporting and ASU2023-09.
Net Loss Per Share
In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 260, “Earnings Per Share”, basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.

Income Taxes
We utilize the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. We recognize deferred tax liabilities or assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities. We regularly assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. We consider projected future taxable income and ongoing tax planning strategies in determining the amount of the valuation allowance necessary to offset our deferred tax assets that will not be recoverable. We have recorded and continue to carry a full valuation allowance against our gross deferred tax assets that will not reverse against deferred tax liabilities within the scheduled reversal period. If we determine in the future that it is more likely than not that we will realize all or a portion of our deferred tax assets, we will adjust our valuation allowance in the period we make the determination. We expect to provide a full valuation allowance on our future tax benefits until we can sustain a level of profitability that demonstrates our ability to realize these assets. At June 30, 2026, we carried a valuation allowance of $
Stock Based Compensation
We account for stock-based compensation to employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. We measure the cost of each stock option and restricted stock award at its fair value on the grant date. Each award vests over the subsequent period during which the recipient is required to provide service in exchange for the award (the vesting period). The cost of each award is recognized as expense in the financial statements over the respective vesting period.
NOTE 3. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
We follow FASB ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, regarding impairment of our other long-lived assets (property, plant and equipment). Our policy is to assess our long-lived assets for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of each year or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable.
An impairment loss is recognized only if the carrying value of a long-lived asset is not recoverable and is measured as the excess of its carrying value over its fair value. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is considered not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of a long-lived asset.
Assets to be disposed of and related liabilities would be separately presented in the consolidated balance sheet. Assets to be disposed of would be reported at the lower of the carrying value or fair value less costs to sell and would not be depreciated. There was no impairment as of June 30, 2026 or 2025.
NOTE 4. INVENTORIES

NOTE 12. SECURED NOTES PAYABLE
During fiscal 2026, the Company reclassified two notes payable outstanding at June 30, 2025, with an aggregate carrying amount of $453, from unsecured notes payable to secured notes payable to conform to the current year presentation, reflecting that the notes are secured on a subordinated basis by inventory and accounts receivable. The June 30, 2025 comparative amounts present $344 as current secured notes payable and $109 as long-term secured notes payable. The reclassification had no effect on total current liabilities, total liabilities, net loss, shareholders’ equity or cash flows for any period presented.

Operating Leases
The Company leases its facilities under non-cancelable operating leases expiring June 30, 2030. Right-of-use assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and liabilities for the lease renewal were recognized at the inception date which is November 7, 2025 based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term, using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate based on the information available. At June 30, 2026, the weighted average remaining lease term for the lease renewal is

We account for stock-based compensation to employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. We measure the cost of each stock option at its fair value on the grant date. Each award vests over the subsequent period during which the recipient is required to provide service in exchange for the award (the vesting period). The cost of each award is recognized as expense in the financial statements over the respective vesting period.
All stock option grants made under the Plan were at exercise prices no less than the Company’s closing stock price on the date of grant. Options under the Plan were determined by the board of directors in accordance with the provisions of the plan. The terms of each option grant include vesting, exercise, and other conditions are set forth in a Stock Option Agreement evidencing each grant. No option can have a life in excess of ten (10) years. The Company records compensation expense for employee stock options based on the estimated fair value of the options on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The model requires various assumptions, including a risk-free interest rate, the expected term of the options, the expected stock price volatility over the expected term of the options, and the expected dividend yield. Compensation expense for employee stock options is recognized ratably over the vesting term. The Company has no awards with market or performance conditions.
Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statements of operations for each of the fiscal years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 is based on awards ultimately expected to vest.
As of June 30, 2026, total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to all unvested stock options was $
In determining the grant date fair value of option awards under the equity incentive plans, the Company applied the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Based upon limited option exercise history, the Company has generally used the “simplified” method outlined in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110 to estimate the expected life of stock option grants. Management believes that the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price on OTCQB best represents the expected volatility over the estimated life of the option. The risk-free interest rate is based upon published U.S. Treasury yield curve rates at the date of grant corresponding to the expected life of the stock option. An assumed dividend yield of zero reflects the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends and has no intention to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

NOTE 16. INCOME TAXES.
Income taxes are accounted for using the asset-and-liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply when the related temporary differences reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded when, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
Effective July 1, 2025, the Company adopted ASU 2023-09 on a prospective basis. The adoption affected income tax disclosures and did not affect the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The state and local income tax category is principally attributable to Georgia. The Company is also subject to income tax in Florida; Florida did not have a material effect on the income tax provision for the periods presented.
The effective income tax rate for fiscal 2026 differed significantly from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily as a result of changes in the valuation allowance and a prior-period deferred tax adjustment associated principally with right-of-use assets and property and equipment.
Because ASU 2023-09 was adopted prospectively, the fiscal 2025 rate reconciliation is presented under the disclosure requirements applicable prior to adoption:

The Company maintained a full valuation allowance against its gross deferred tax assets at June 30, 2026 and 2025. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and available tax planning strategies. Based on the weight of available positive and negative evidence, the Company concluded that realization of its deferred tax assets was not more likely than not. “
During fiscal 2026, the Company recorded a priorperiod deferred tax adjustment associated principally with right-of-use assets and property and equipment. The adjustment related to deferred tax liabilities that had not been fully recorded in the prior period and was determined to be immaterial to the previously issued and current-period financial statements.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits and Tax Examinations
The Company recognizes the financial statement effects of an uncertain tax position when it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination. A recognized tax benefit is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized as a component of income tax expense.

ITEM 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain certain disclosure controls and procedures as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. They are designed to help ensure that material information is: (1) gathered and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, in a manner that allows for timely decisions regarding required disclosures; and (2) recorded, processed, summarized, reported and filed with the SEC as required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and within the time periods specified by the SEC.
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2026. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2026.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2026. For this purpose, internal control over financial reporting refers to a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s principal executive and financial officers and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material adverse effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management performed an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2026 based upon criteria in an Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment, management believes the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2026 based on the criteria issued by COSO.
This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm. Because we are a non-accelerated filer, our independent registered public accounting firm is not required under Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act to attest to, and report on, management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. We remain responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for assessing its effectiveness pursuant to Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2026 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Louis S. Friedman | 74 | Chief Executive Officer, President, Director | ||
Christopher Knauf | 54 | Chief Financial Officer | ||
Leslie S. Vogelman | 74 | Treasurer |
Directors generally serve for one-year terms and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. The Company’s Bylaws provide for an annual meeting of shareholders for the election of directors. Mr. Friedman has continued to serve as the Company’s sole director. The Company intends to undertake a process to hold a shareholder meeting for the election of directors and to address certain other corporate governance matters.
There is no arrangement, agreement or understanding between any of the directors or officers and any other person pursuant to which any director or officer was or is to be selected as a director or officer. Also, there is no arrangement, agreement or understanding between management and non-management shareholders under which non-management shareholders may directly or indirectly participate in or influence the management of our affairs.
Directors are not presently compensated for their service on the board other than the repayment of actual expenses incurred, and there are no present plans to compensate them.
Background of Executive Officers and Directors
Louis S. Friedman, President, Chief Executive Officer and Director. Mr. Friedman has served as President, Chief Executive Officer, and director since our merger with Old Liberator in October 2009. Prior to that, he served as Old Liberator’s Chief Executive Officer and a director since June 2009, when OneUp Innovations, Inc. merged with Old Liberator in June 2009. Mr. Friedman founded OneUp in 2000. Before starting OneUp, Mr. Friedman was in business consulting, venture capital and private investing from 1990 to 2000. Earlier in his career, Mr. Friedman was Executive Vice President of Chemtronics, Inc., until its sale to Morgan Crucible in 1990. Mr. Friedman’s experience as Chief Executive Officer and insight into our operations, our industry, and related risks as well as experience bringing consumer products to market were factors considered by our board of directors in concluding he should serve as a director of our Company.
Christopher Knauf, Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Knauf was engaged on January 15, 2024 and then appointed chief financial officer effective February 14, 2024. He has an extensive background in omnichannel integrations of design, manufacturing, retail, and wholesale distribution, with extensive financial management experience. Prior to joining the Company, he most recently served as the Senior Vice President of Accounting from 2018 to 2024 for LocumTenens.com, LLC, one of the largest medical staffing companies in the United States. He has a BS in Finance from Fairfield University and an MBA from Fordham University.
Leslie Vogelman, Treasurer. Ms. Vogelman joined the Company in October 2009 in connection with our merger with Old Liberator, Inc. Prior to that, she served as Old Liberator’s Treasurer since June 2009, when OneUp merged with Old Liberator in June 2009. Ms. Vogelman joined OneUp at its inception in 2000 as Secretary and Treasurer. Ms. Vogelman holds a B.A. from the State University of New York in Binghamton and an M.B.A. from Adelphi University.
The experience and background of our director, as summarized above, were significant factors in such director previously being nominated a director of the Company.
Family Relationships
Louis Friedman, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, and Leslie Vogelman, our Treasurer, are husband and wife.
There are no other relationships between the officers or directors of the Company.

Committees
As of the date of this report, we have not established an audit committee or any other committee of the board of directors and, therefore, the responsibilities of such committees have been conducted by our board of directors as a whole.
We may, in the future, establish an audit committee and/or other committees of the board of directors. We currently do not have any independent directors.
Audit Committee Financial Expert
In general, an “audit committee financial expert” is an individual who:
| · | understands generally accepted accounting principles and financial statements, |
| · | is able to assess the general application of such principles in connection with accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves, |
| · | has experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating financial statements comparable to the breadth and complexity of our financial statements, |
| · | understands internal controls over financial reporting, and |
| · | understands audit committee functions. |
Our board of directors has determined that Louis Friedman, our sole Director, is not an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of the foregoing definition.
The Company does not currently have an audit committee financial expert because the Board currently consists solely of Mr. Friedman. The Company intends to consider candidates with appropriate financial and accounting experience as it seeks to expand the Board.
Nominating Committee
The Company does not currently have a standing nominating committee. Because the Board currently consists of a single director, the Board has determined that establishing a separate nominating committee is not presently practicable or necessary. The Board as a whole performs the functions that would ordinarily be performed by a nominating committee. Louis S. Friedman, the Company’s sole director, participates in the consideration and evaluation of potential director nominees. The Company intends to evaluate its committee structure as additional directors are added to the Board.
Compensation Committee
The Company does not currently have a standing compensation committee. Because the Board currently consists of a single director, the Board has determined that establishing a separate compensation committee is not presently practicable or necessary. The Board as a whole performs the functions that would ordinarily be performed by a compensation committee, and compensation arrangements are approved in accordance with the Company’s governing documents and applicable law. Louis S. Friedman, the Company’s sole director, participates in consideration of executive and director compensation, subject to applicable requirements concerning interested-party transactions and approvals. The Company intends to evaluate its committee structure as additional directors are added to the Board.
Directors’ Compensation
For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, our directors did not receive any compensation in their capacity as a director.

A copy of the Company’s Insider Trading Policy is filed as Exhibit 19.1 to our Form 10-Q for period ended September 30, 2024.
While the granting of options and other equity awards to officers, directors and other employees is not expressly addressed in the Insider Trading Policy described above, the Company follows the same principles set forth in such Policy when granting equity awards, including options, to its officers, directors and other employees with access to material nonpublic information. Generally, the Board of Directors or Compensation Committee does not approve grants of such awards close in time to the disclosure of material nonpublic information and does not take material nonpublic information into account when determining the timing and terms of such an award. Further, the Company does not have a policy or practice of timing the disclosure of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.
Anti-Hedging Policies
Under the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, all officers, directors and employees are prohibited from engaging in hedging, pledging or shorting transactions.
Rule 10b5-1 Trading Arrangements
During the three months ended June 30, 2026, none of our directors or officers, as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, adopted or terminated a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or a “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement,” as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.
Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company’s directors and executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities, to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of beneficial ownership and reports of changes in beneficial ownership.
Based solely upon a review of Forms 3, 4 and 5 filed electronically with the Securities and Exchange Commission and information known to the Company, the Company believes that, during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026, all reports required to be filed pursuant to Section 16(a) were filed on a timely basis, except as follows:
Louis S. Friedman. Mr. Friedman purchased less than $10,000 worth of stock throughout the year. He intends to file Form 5 prior to December 31, 2026.
Dipan N Patel, Mr. Patel a beneficial owner of more than ten percent of the Company’s outstanding common stock, failed to timely file a Form 3 upon becoming subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) as of June 30, 2026. In addition, Mr. Patel failed to timely report on Form 4 for transaction involving the acquisition of an aggregate of 9,467,595 shares of the Company’s common stock following the date on which he became subject to Section 16(a).

ITEM 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.
Our voting securities include shares of our common stock and our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. The following table sets forth certain information known to us with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock by:
| · | all persons who are beneficial owners of five percent (5%) or more of any class of our voting securities; |
| · | each of our directors; |
| · | each of our Named Executive Officers; and |

| 23 |
| Table of Contents |
Except as otherwise indicated, and subject to applicable community property laws, the persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of our securities held by them.
Applicable percentage ownership in the following table is based on 76,834,057 shares of common stock and 4,300,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding as of September 28, 2026.
Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, shares of common stock subject to options held by that person that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of September 28, 2026, are deemed outstanding. Such shares, however, are not deemed outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Unless otherwise disclosed these persons’ address is c/o Luvu Brands, Inc., 2745 Bankers Industrial Drive, Atlanta, GA 30360.
