PART I

Item 1. Business.

Our Company

At Once Upon a Farm, we are driving systemic change in childhood nutrition with real, organic, farm-fresh food–made with no added sugar, no preservatives, and nothing artificial. From baby’s first bites to kid’s school-ready snacks, we are a rapidly growing leader in modern childhood nutrition that provides innovative, nutrient-packed, delicious food to on-the-go parents for their babies and kids. We revolutionized the childhood nutrition category with what we believe is the first-ever cold-pressed Pouch, setting a new standard for nutrition that parents love and kids crave. From one mother’s kitchen and farmers markets to a beloved household brand, we are the #1 growth brand in the category1, elevating parents’ expectations for the food their children consume and eliminating the need to compromise taste and quality for convenience.

Our mission and commitment to our consumers guide every decision we make and are at the heart of our identity and journey ahead. We are a public benefit corporation, which requires us to uphold high social and environmental standards and provide transparency for all of our stockholders. Additionally, we believe we are the first baby through kid parent-ally brand with a deep commitment to superior, fresh products with high nutritional standards and incredible taste. Our thoughtful recipes are crafted with high-quality organic ingredients, from cold-pressed Pouches and freshly Frozen Meals, to Refrigerated Oat Bars and Dry Baby Snacks, earning us the trust of parents, and fostering a loyal, passionate, and fast-growing consumer base. This is reflected in our Net Promoter Score2 (“NPS”) of 45, outpacing all of the established category players according to a survey conducted on January 15, 2025.

Our success in developing nutritious food that kids love, and parents feel good providing, has resulted in a remarkable growth trajectory. We have surpassed $349 million of in-store retail sales, according to management estimates, and are the #1 brand driving dollar growth in the categories we play in for the 52 weeks ended December 28, 20253. Our products are available in the aisles where parents frequently shop and are sold in more than 25,0004 doors nationwide across U.S. Multi-Outlet (“MULO”) and the Natural Expanded channel. We have strong relationships with well-known retailers, both in brick-and-mortar stores and e-commerce.

We believe we are distinct and attractive to our retail customers as we sell in both the fresh perimeter and center of store allowing for an “all aisle” presence for our consumers that is available on-premise and online. Our playbook is effective as we unlock incremental traffic and growth in the aisles our products are presented in, and our velocities have remained best-in-class as our distribution has expanded. Retailers value this given that we believe our products attract larger basket shoppers and generate better margin outcomes. We believe our brand is enhancing childhood nutrition options and categories as we provide modern, better-for-you products that yield satisfaction and smiles.

From A Mission to A Movement

In 2015, Cassandra Curtis and Ari Raz started Once Upon a Farm with a mission centered around two main pillars:

•

Kids should be eating food that is organic, fresh, clean, and real; and

•

Parents need food options that are delicious, nutritious, and convenient.

4 SPINS, U.S. MULO + Natural Expanded Channel Data, for the 52-week period ended December 28, 2025.

Cassandra created the original recipes in her kitchen to feed her own children because nothing she could buy at the grocery store from existing food brands met her high personal standards. Inspired by this mission, in 2017, industry veteran, longtime leader of Annie’s, and former president of the Annie’s operating unit at General Mills, John Foraker partnered with actor, philanthropist, and entrepreneur / businesswoman, Jennifer Garner, to join with Cassandra and Ari to create the next generation childhood nutrition company. Subsequently, we assembled a team of Consumer-Packaged Goods (“CPG”) veterans, with experience disrupting category norms, and built an organization filled with talented, passionate and success-seeking people. We have grown Once Upon a Farm to $240.7 million in annual net sales for the year ended December 31, 2025, representing a 53.7% compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) from 2022 to the year ended December 31, 2025.

Through the power of our team, we believe we are a pioneer in modern childhood nutrition with a deep connection to our consumers built on trust, quality, and transparency. Our brand’s “farm fresh first” approach resonates with parents wanting to increase their kids’ consumption of fruits and veggies, resulting in high consumer loyalty and advocacy. We believe it is through these foundational advocates that we have enjoyed continued success, as our brand is amplified via their enthusiastic word-of-mouth, which is sincere, effective, and comes at no cost to our business. Peer-to-peer marketing has become increasingly significant in how parents are introduced to our brand. Parents who purchase our products often brag about our quality and taste profile that kids love. Despite this, and the significant reach our brand has for its size, we only have household penetration of 5.1%5 as of the last 12 months ended December 31, 2025, which should provide us with significant growth opportunities.

Once Upon a Farm’s reach is further supported by our modern and multi-faceted, consumer-driven marketing strategy that spans social media, traditional marketing, national partnerships, and commercial TV campaigns that are paramount to further driving consumer awareness. We utilize full-funnel marketing strategies by focusing our activations on both our core products and innovations to attract new and repeat consumers.

The Proof is in The Pouches…And Our Innovative Products

At the heart of our business is our never-ending drive to perfect our core product: our Pouches. Over time, we have enhanced the formulations, improved the format, and updated the packaging, which are then applied to subsequent product rollouts. We boast an unrelenting focus on taste and quality of our products and leverage our innovation capabilities and supply chain expertise to bring these products into the homes of our consumers.

Pouches, our core category, include Fruit & Veggie Blends, Functional Blends, and Smoothies. We designed our Pouches to deliver innovation and modernization to the stagnant dairy aisle, where, adjacent to legacy kid positioned yogurt brands, we initially placed our products during our 2018 national roll-out. We believe that we continue to raise the bar for industry standards. We make our Pouches by blending fresh and Individual Quick Frozen (“IQF”) fruits and vegetables, sourced at peak ripeness, with other high-quality ingredients. We process them using high, cold pressure, never heating them above 40 degrees, which preserves enough shelf life to allow for refrigerated distribution to stores nationwide. The result is a fresh product with a taste and texture as if it were homemade. Kids love the taste, and parents feel great about the simple ingredients and freshness.

We also have sought-after and on-trend functional offerings for our Pouches, such as our Immunity and Smart Blends, which are designed to support children’s health and development as people look to food as a means for preventative health benefits. According to SPINS, U.S. MULO, as of the 52 weeks ended December 28, 2025, our portfolio of Pouches had approximately $134 million of retail sales, with top 3 dollar and unit growth contribution position in the category.

5 2025 Numerator, Shopper Metrics.

Building upon our Pouches’ strong foundation of trust, loyalty, and passion with our consumers, we expanded into baby and kid pantry snacking with Dry Baby Snacks and Refrigerated Oat Bars. In 2023, we launched what we believe was the first-of-its-kind Refrigerated Oat Bar at a time when bars in the market were full of sugar, preservatives, and lacking flavor and nutrition. In 2024, we launched Dry Baby Snacks which include Fruit & Veggie Puffs, Melts, and Tractor Wheel Bars. Per SPINS, U.S. MULO data on retail sales, as of the 12 weeks ended December 28, 2025, we are the #1 velocity Baby & Toddler Snack brand in the United States, specifically with the #1 velocity in Puffs, Melts, and Toddler Bars, making our Dry Baby Snacks the #2 brand in the category by dollar sales. We also launched our Soft-Baked Bars for kids and they have quickly become the fastest growing brand driving segment growth in the Natural / Organic Breakfast Bar category where carried, according to management estimates. We believe this presents a substantial opportunity for us to further establish our reputation as a leading bar brand in a $7.6 billion Bar category, according to SPINS, U.S. MULO + Natural Expanded Channel data as of the 52 weeks ended December 28, 2025.

Our portfolio also includes a line of freshly frozen organic meals, mostly sold on our direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) platform hosted on Shopify. This line is focused on veggie forward finger feeding products that are an important bridge for parents transitioning babies to solid foods. These products also give us a foothold and experience in the Frozen category, which represents a significant opportunity for further brand expansion in the future should we decide to pursue that opportunity. This product also addresses the heightened demand for healthier and better-for-you frozen options that millennials and younger generation parents look for, a trend that we have observed coming out of the pandemic.

One of the most exciting opportunities ahead of us is the opportunity to broaden our cooler installations and presence in the baby aisle, which is traditionally home to only shelf stable products. From our earliest days, we began placing and testing coolers in baby aisles, experimenting with different sizes and product assortments to discover the best retail results and category incrementality. In 2022, these efforts paid off as we began to slowly scale the roll-out of fresh baby coolers at key retailers to meet the growing demand of parents seeking fresh baby food and clean snack options. Today, we believe we have identified the right strategy to drive a broader and more emphatic cooler presence, as we have over 3,400 coolers deployed nationally as of December 31, 2025, and are well-positioned to continue to steward this initiative into a meaningful growth engine for Once Upon a Farm and our retail customers. Our coolers not only create convenience and efficiency for shoppers, but we believe they are also highly incremental to baby food category growth, leading to larger and more profitable baskets for retailers.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, 62% of our net sales were generated from the sale of Pouch products, 37% from Snacks, and 1% from other products.

Omnichannel Route-to-Market with Leading Partners

We have built and fortified strong relationships with top retailers, both brick-and-mortar and online, some going back to our national roll-out in 2018. Our retail customers are aligned with and supportive of our mission in the baby and kids’ aisles. They have been constructive in furthering the Once Upon a Farm’s brand presence in their stores, recognizing both the growth opportunity they see and the high-value consumers that our brand attracts.

Retail Stores: We have a strong presence at brick-and-mortar stores, evidenced by expanding shelf space with over 500,000 points of distribution and cooler placement in over 3,400 stores, according to management estimates. Our products are available at leading retail customers, including Target, Whole Foods, Kroger, Walmart, Publix, and Wegmans. We work with leading national retailers and collaborate with them to ensure Once Upon a Farm is prominently displayed across the store to meet parents where they shop and support our goal of “owning the aisles.”

E-Commerce: In 2025, according to management estimates, 40% of our sales volume started with a “click,” whether it was on our own DTC platform, our retail customers’ websites or third-party e-commerce and delivery platforms. As consumers increasingly shift to purchasing online, especially new parents, we ensure our products are also available on our retail customers’ online platforms, and seek to optimize our products’ placement for visibility and availability on their digital shelves. A greater portion of sales of our products are sold online by our key retail customers than our competitors. For example, other brands within our key retail customers may typically have 10% of their business done online, but 24% of our business is done online. This is important to our retail customers as digital baskets are generally more valuable than in-store baskets, highlighting the value of the e-commerce shopper. Based on management estimates, we are also the #1 indexing brand in the baby food, bars, and yogurt categories for retailer e-commerce

platforms, selling approximately 2 times the category average via Pickup and Delivery. Despite being in its infancy, we are seeing strong early traction with Thrive Market revenue growing approximately 150% and Amazon revenue growing 457%, in each case year-over-year from the year ended December 31, 2024 to the year ended December 31, 2025, with both retailers ranking among our top 10 retailers for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Additionally, we have our own established, profitable DTC platform that is an essential omnichannel connection point with consumers. Our platform enables us to have direct relationships with thousands of consumers that we survey to gain valuable insights that we can leverage across our portfolio to drive growth and develop products.

A Strategically Differentiated Supply Chain

We are committed to consistently delivering delicious, high-quality products using the highest quality ingredients, sourcing, and production. We understand that any compromise of these principles could have immense implications for our brand and business, which is why we maintain strict oversight across our entire supply chain. We consider our global sourcing relationships, our knowledge of the organic supply chain, our complex manufacturing processes, and our contract manufacturing network consisting of 30 production facilities and fulfillment and raw material warehouses to be distinct competitive advantages presenting a strong barrier to entry. We believe that our role in improving childhood nutrition starts with how our food is grown, picked, and packed, which is why we carefully manage most of these processes.

We have strong business relationships with our contract manufacturers, and we work directly with them to ensure our extensive product and packaging specifications are properly implemented, which enables strict oversight of our manufacturing process. Through these arrangements and contractual agreements, our ingredients are sourced to meet our high standards and enforce rigorous quality control at every stage of production. While many food companies allow their third-party manufacturers to fully manage product formulation, blending, and packaging, we take a hybrid approach. Although we rely on our contract manufacturers for their high-pressure processing capabilities, we remain actively involved in directing and advising them throughout the formulation, blending, and packaging stages to ensure our proprietary specifications and quality standards are met. Moreover, certain of our agreements require our contract manufacturers to install specified equipment purchased by us for use in production of the applicable products. Such measures give us oversight and traceability into a critical part of our value chain, truly setting us apart in the industry, while maintaining gross margins of 42.3% for the year ended December 31, 2025, which are among the best of our public company peers.

We are committed to the highest standards of social responsibility within our supply chain. For the year ended December 31, 2025, 73.1% of our domestic ingredients came from farms certified by the Equitable Food Initiative (“EFI”), which partners with growers and retailers to create a more transparent food chain and healthier workplace for the well-being of farmers growing and harvesting our high-quality raw ingredients. According to EFI, Once Upon a Farm is the first and only consumer packaged goods company committed to source and pay premiums on fruit from EFI certified farms. We view our farmers as true partners and utilize a “follow the harvest” strategy sourcing from all over the world to ensure that we are using the freshest ingredients that are in season.

Our Industry

We operate within the large U.S. Natural and Organic Food and Beverage industry, which according to SPINS, U.S. MULO and Natural Expanded Channel data, accounted for approximately $82 billion in retail sales in the 52 weeks ended December 31, 2025. We believe approximately 38% of the U.S. market is comprised of tracked channels with the remaining 62% in untracked channels such as Costco, e-commerce, and Food Service. Our industry has been shaped by a long-term secular shift in consumer behavior towards health and wellness, and we believe that nutrition and health have never been more closely linked for U.S. consumers.

Growing consumer awareness of the health benefits of natural and organic foods has led to a significant increase in demand. Younger millennials and Generation Z consumers are increasingly prioritizing products that are organic and healthy, and these cohorts are expected to hold 47-60% of buying power by 20306. We believe that these preferences for natural and organic nutrition will continue to extend into the baby and kid aisles as these cohorts mature, increase their income, and have families.

Expecting parents and parents of infants are the highest indexing household types the Organic Trade Association refers to as “Committed Organic Consumers” (purchasing 5 or more organic categories in the last 12 months). As a result, the Baby Food category boasts the highest penetration of households purchasing organic across all categories7, providing a significant opportunity for our products. Parents have increasingly sought to prioritize the health and nutrition of their children, as ages 0-12 represent some of the most critical years for biological, cognitive, and social development, and for the prevention of negative life-long health impacts. We believe this prioritization has highlighted the prevalence of preservatives and fillers, over-processing and added sugars in kids’ packaged food, and the need for better options with simple, clean ingredients that still taste delicious and are convenient for parents. As a baby and kid nutrition company committed to providing fresh, organic, and delicious food in a sustainable and transparent manner, we believe we are well positioned to leverage these secular shifts in consumer demand as a catalyst for growth.

While our focus is specific to natural and organic, we are also seeking to capture market share from the broader U.S. Kids Food & Beverage industry, which, according to Renub Research, is projected to exceed $57 billion in sales value in 2024 and to grow at a 6.5% CAGR from 2024 to 2027. Through our portfolio of products, we are able to cover many need states spanning across functional, dairy, fruits & veggies, and snacking.

When parents are considering which brands and products to feed to their kids, the purchase decision is often dependent on brand trust and loyalty, and 65% of parents express a desire for a single childhood food brand that spans all ages8. We believe that our core values, diverse product platform, dedication to taste, and healthy products, and disciplined investments position us well to serve these consumers, benefit from industry trends, capture market share, and continue driving industry-leading growth in the coming years.

Competitive Strengths

We believe that the following strengths differentiate our brand and have built the foundation for our continued growth and stewardship of children’s nutrition:

Modern & Deeply Trusted Brand Covering Baby Through Kid

Once Upon a Farm is a modern, premium brand that has earned the trust of parents by offering simple, great-tasting, and highly nutritious organic foods that both parents and children love. Our Company mission is to drive systemic change in childhood nutrition for a happier, healthier, and more equitable world. We are addressing what we believe is an unmet need that legacy manufacturers of children’s packaged food options, especially ones kids crave the most, have historically failed to address. Many of the most popular and widely available children’s snacks contain preservatives, artificial flavors and colors, and lots of added refined sugars. We are a next generation brand providing convenient, fresh, organic, and better-for-you food options for babies and kids, that on-the-go parents trust.

6 SPINS, CPG Outlook.

7 Organic Trade Association.

8 SIVO.

Our products resonate with our consumers no matter where they shop–across aisles and channels, evidenced by our strong NPS of 45 according to a survey conducted on January 15, 2025, which leads our competitive set and reinforces the trust and favorability we have built over the years. We have a loyal base of consumers that we have cultivated over an extended period of time through repeated positive consumer interactions with our brand and products. We believe we are viewed as a ‘badge brand’ that parents gravitate towards given our brand is associated with a high standard of quality, transparency, and taste that kids love. As a result, we believe consumers are proactively sharing our brand through peer-to-peer connections because of their love for our products and their desire to share that experience with their friends and family members. We have earned the trust of parents by never compromising on our promise to them to provide healthy food choices, making Once Upon a Farm a go-to choice for playdates, parks, and busy families everywhere. However, with household penetration only at 5.1%9 as of the year ended December 31, 2025, we believe we still have so much opportunity ahead of us.

Consistently Delicious Products Made With High-Quality Ingredients

Our unwavering commitment is to create delicious products that children love using high-quality, fresh, and clean ingredients. Parents appreciate our transparency and dedication to providing products that are safe, organic, non-GMO Project Verified, contain no added sugar, and are free from artificial flavors, colors, and preservatives, as evidenced by 2025 Numerator, Verified Voices data.

Our simple and easy to understand ingredients are correctly perceived as healthy by parents, differentiating us from most category competition. Once Upon a Farm’s entire portfolio adheres to strict organic standards and is certified with the United States Department of Agriculture the (“USDA”) Organic seal.

We carefully design each product to meet the nutritional needs of different developmental stages, from a baby’s first bites to school-age snacks. Certain products are further enhanced via functionality, such as added immunity, belly, and brain health supportive ingredients. Our Immunity Blend Pouches, which contain probiotics that support immune health, and our Smart Blend Pouches, which contain Omega 3s and choline that support brain health, are the highest velocity products across our Kid & Baby Pouch portfolios10. We believe this demonstrates how parents are increasingly looking for products that are simple, clean, and that they believe can do more for their kids without sacrificing on delivering a superior taste to ensure kids want to keep coming back for more.

We understand the importance of maintaining trust with the children who consume our products and their parents, which is why we are committed to upholding our products to the highest quality standards. Our Pouches have received verification from The Clean Label Project and have earned us the Purity Award Certification, solidifying us as a top choice for parents in the category. We believe these recognitions, coupled with our repeat rates showcase our ability to strike the perfect combination of flavor, taste, and nutritional value.

Leading In-House Innovation Capabilities Redefining the Baby & Kid Food Markets

Innovation is at the core of Once Upon a Farm—we constantly seek to optimize and improve our products to provide relevant options that meet the needs of today’s families while staying true to our mission. We disrupted the industry in 2015 when we introduced our cold-pressed Pouches, for the first time providing families with nutrition-packed, fresh homemade taste without the preparation and clean-up. Our Pouches are designed for on-the-go convenience, with easy-to-use spouts, making feeding simpler and mess-free. Aside from novel formats, we continue to explore new ingredient combinations and functional benefits.

Following the launch of our core Pouches, and establishing our brand’s trust with families, we expanded our portfolio into additional categories with great success. Our first entry into snacking was via expansions into Refrigerated Oat Bars and Dry Baby Snacks, and today, new products outside of our core Pouches represent approximately 40% of our portfolio and drove 74%11 of growth contribution for the 52 weeks ended December 28, 2025. Over time, our goal is to be the go-to brand for babies, toddlers, and big kids.

Our new product ideation is greatly enhanced by the data and analytics we gather via our DTC platform. The direct feedback we gain from our carefully cultivated and empathetic relationships with over 13,000 subscribers as of December 31, 2025, provides us with valuable insights into their unmet needs. Leveraging these insights, coupled with ongoing product evaluation, we maintain a robust pipeline of new products, and are confident we have the team, capabilities, and most importantly, the brand to continue to lead and disrupt the industry.

Core Demographic Comprised of Loyal Consumers With Strong Brand Affinity

We relentlessly focus on being a consumer-led brand and an ally for parents. Our brand’s attributes have and continue to win over a valuable, attractive, and passionate consumer base. This connection often begins before consumers actually start buying Once Upon a Farm products. According to the Mintel, Marketing report, first time moms exhibit heightened information-seeking behaviors, especially across digital sources where they are up to 35% more likely than all moms to seek information. Once the baby arrives, the Mintel, Baby Food report indicates that 57% of parents rely heavily on recommendations from their pediatricians and 55% rely on word-of-mouth from friends and family with young children when it comes to feeding their babies. According to the same Mintel report, 76% of consumers believe that brands play a role in educating parents about nutrition. Our brand’s growing awareness, coupled with our full-funnel marketing strategies, has resulted in our brand consistently showing up as a leading name during this phase for parents.

This established trust and introduction to Once Upon a Farm creates early adoption and serves as a gateway for babies to our Kid offerings and establishes long-term brand loyalty among parents with our average consumer around 2-5 years old. As noted, we boast a strong brand NPS score, and have immensely favorable brand sentiment around product attributes such as “high quality,” “trust,” and “health/nutrition” among our purchasers according to a survey conducted January 15, 202512. By consistently delivering on our consumer expectations, we believe we have established a devoted consumer base and created a community of loyal parents who are advocates for our brand. We are fortunate to have such amazing parents in our consumer base, and hope to continue enhancing and expanding that trust for years to come.

Deep & Symbiotic Retail Relationships

We partner with the most-trafficked retailers nationally who rely on us to deliver category leading innovation, excellent growth opportunities, and a brand that draws attractive consumers into the store. Retail customers value the incremental categories we offer, the strong velocities we bring, and the resulting growth and premium margins we deliver for them. Each point of our all-commodities-volume weighted distribution (“ACV distribution”) for our leading U.S. retailers is worth 30% to 60% more today than it was just a year ago. In addition to driving foot traffic, according to management estimates, and our consumers are digitally savvy with 35% of our retail sales being made online in 2024, which is 3 times more valuable to retailers than in-store according to 84.51° Stratum.

We are the #1 brand13 driving dollar growth for retailers in the categories we play in. In the Kid Yogurt section of the dairy category, we believe our Pouches are among the primary catalysts driving accelerated total category growth. Due to our points of differentiation from the competition, we are 69% incremental to the Kid Yogurt category, according to management estimates, and 73% incremental to the Refrigerated Bar category14. We also achieved the distinction of being the #1 velocity Baby & Toddler Snack brand in the United States15, and when Dry Baby Snacks launched, according to management estimates, became 80% incremental to each of the Baby & Toddler Puffs, Melts, and Bars categories, with 50% of that from new to category households16. Additionally, our Soft-Baked Bars that launched in 2024 are now the fastest growing brand driving segment growth in the Natural / Organic Breakfast Bar category where carried, according to management estimates.

Difficult to Replicate, Scaled, and Global Supply Chain Network

From “farm to kid,” we have built a best-in-class and capital efficient supply chain that enables us to produce complex and differentiated products with organic, high-quality ingredients at scale. We view our farmers as true partners and we source ingredients globally using a “follow the harvest” strategy to ensure each ingredient meets our standards for quality, freshness, and availability. We employ a comprehensive quality assurance program, which includes strict supplier qualifications, audits, and thorough regular testing of raw materials and finished products. We share the results of these tests with our consumers as we know how much they value transparency. To maintain freshness year-round, we utilize a combination of fresh and IQF fruits and vegetables in our products. Additionally, we maintain requisite inventory based on demand forecasting, so that we can consistently meet our customer needs.

Our differentiated supply chain, along with our manufacturing and procurement expertise, enables us to produce products of the highest quality, which we believe will be difficult for new or incumbent competitors to replicate.

Mission-Driven Leadership Team With a Proven Track-Record, Developing a Best-in-Class Culture

We believe we have one of the most talented C-suites in the industry for a business of our size. This is purposeful, as we are building Once Upon a Farm for the future. Our leadership team has 125 years of collective experience in CPG, and most have been working closely together at the Company for over five years. The majority of our C-suite has prior experience in helping to scale disruptive, high growth brands that challenged category norms and reset industry standards.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder, John Foraker, has over 30 years of experience in the natural and organic food industry having joined Annie’s as an investor in 1998, becoming its Chief Executive Officer when it was still a small company in 2003, growing it into an industry leader and spearheading its 2012 IPO, which was followed by its eventual sale to General Mills in 2014. John is one of our earliest investors, and in 2017, he joined us as our Chief Executive Officer to lead our endeavor to build an innovation-led children’s nutrition brand for babies and kids. Lawrence Waldman, our President and Chief Financial Officer, has over 27 years of experience in entrepreneurial CPG brands, including at Annie’s, where he was responsible for building the supply chain that fueled the successful expansion of that business and strong financial model. He joined Once Upon a Farm in November 2017 and has leveraged his know-how to build a strong and differentiated supply chain model with very favorable unit economics.

Our leadership team’s belief in our mission and shared values underpinning our organization has fostered a winning culture that prioritizes high performance, excellence in execution, talent development, trust, and open communication. The brand we’ve built, the confidence we have in our future growth, and the powerful attraction of our core mission enables us to attract best-in-class candidates across CPG and retain top talent, creating a deep bench of talent at all management levels. We further prioritize training and otherwise nurturing that talent as critical to our long-term success. We are proud of our high employee engagement scores and high retention. Our culture is the glue that holds our organization together, and as a result has made us a highly sought-after place to work. Our team is motivated by a shared goal to sustainably nourish families for years to come. As just one example of this devotion, we proudly formed our A Million Meals program in partnership with the non-profit organization, Save the Children. Through this program, we have pledged to distribute 1,000,000 nutritious meals to children in food-insecure communities in the United States. We are committed to giving kids a better start for a healthier, happier tomorrow.

Our Growth Strategies

Grow Brand Awareness To Drive Increased Household Penetration

We lead with our core values in all aspects of our business. We believe this mission-led approach resonates with our consumers and creates authentic connections, reinforcing our identity as a parent-ally brand. Kids love the taste of our products and parents love the high-quality nutritional profile and convenience we bring, resulting in repeat customers, earned trust, and brand loyalty. Parents are excited to share our products with other parents, enabling us to grow our brand awareness through word-of-mouth as parents share our story. We believe we can achieve meaningful scale in the years ahead, similar to what leading brands have accomplished during periods of category leadership. As of the last 12 months ended December 31, 2025, our household penetration per the 2025 Numerator, Shopper Metrics report was 5.1%, which is below the average household penetration of our top competitors. We believe this leaves us with significant room to deepen household penetration as we continue to grow brand awareness.

We intend to continue to expand and extend the age distribution of our end consumers upwards to establish a comprehensive baby through big kid portfolio. We will leverage our highly disruptive baby portfolio as a critical entry point and further establish ourselves as a trusted ally for parents during the crucial early stages of their baby’s development. This provides us significant runway to leverage our broader product portfolio to meet the evolving nutritional needs of babies and kids.

Our omnichannel approach meets consumers wherever they are, eliminating the need for them to shop elsewhere, which creates a formidable moat that we believe drives long-term retention and loyalty. Our DTC platform serves as an essential omnichannel connection point, enabling us to conveniently engage with parents and gain deep insights and analytics on evolving consumer preferences, allowing us to build direct and meaningful relationships with parents.

We intend to effectively engage and connect with consumers through our full-funnel, modern marketing initiatives. By creating authentic, peer-to-peer connections, we promote future sharing of our brand through word-of-mouth. This approach includes leveraging critical retail media networks, influencer programs, high-frequency national media campaigns, engaging social media, impactful sponsorships, and immersive in-store activations. Through the goodwill we have created with consumers and the connections we have established with parents, we believe we can reduce friction throughout the customer journey and push consumers through the funnel more effectively. We are confident that once consumers are introduced to our brand and our products, we can efficiently drive conversion from trials to repeat purchases, further fostering long-term loyalty.

Deepen and Expand Our Reach With Retailers

We have cultivated and continue to maintain strong and mutually beneficial relationships with our retail customers, who we believe are critical to our long-term growth strategy. We are prioritizing expanding our presence in retail locations and optimizing our distribution across all applicable stores. Our goal is to increase our distribution with current retailers by deepening our existing product assortment through increased store keeping unit (“SKU”) counts. We believe there remains significant opportunity to continue driving retail sales growth through assortment expansion within existing categories as well as potential to extend across aisles and penetrate into new categories through our product innovations.

We also intend to grow sales while amplifying the excitement of our in-store presence and expanding our in-store footprint by continuing the capital-efficient execution of our national baby cooler deployment. As of December 31, 2025, we have strategically deployed over 3,400 coolers across the nation, reflecting a compound annual growth rate of 68.0% from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2025. Coolers play a highly disruptive role in our brand journey, serving as a key entry point into the brand for new consumer households. We are rapidly scaling our cooler program to extend our brand presence and increase our product assortment and SKU count across retailers. Our coolers can be found replacing standard shelving in the baby aisle as an endcap or free standing, and they currently feature our widest selection of pouches and baby food meals with baby positioning and nutrition designed for what we believe parents walking down the baby aisle are looking for. We estimate that there is an opportunity to expand across North America into a footprint of more than 15,000 coolers in stores. Our coolers may be owned by us or our retail customers and we typically share the cost of our branded coolers with our retail customers. Our contribution averages between $3,000 and $8,000 per unit, depending on cooler size and retailer-specific arrangements, and is generally recorded as a component of slotting fees which we recognize as a reduction in net sales. Our capital-efficient cooler program continues to demonstrate strong in-store sales performance at the point of purchase. We have an annual run-rate of approximately $12,000 in-store retail sales per cooler based on our average for the six weeks ended December 28, 2025, according to management estimates. As we have accelerated our roll-out, we have also increased the productivity of our coolers and believe there are further productivity enhancement opportunities as we scale the program and optimize our cooler placement in stores, broaden our product assortment in each cooler, increase brand awareness, and bring additional innovation. We expect our continued cooler deployment into the baby aisle to drive growth to our dairy aisle assortment, as excitement about our brand and products crosses aisles. Due to the incrementality and uplift our coolers provide, retailers are eager to partner with us on this initiative. This enables us to grow our brand with balanced capital investments, while generating high return on investment and solidifying our position as the fresh baby category leader and a key long-term growth partner for retailers.

In addition to our primary retail growth strategy of increasing depth within existing accounts, we believe there is significant opportunity to increase e-commerce retail sales and expand into new retail customers and international markets.

Continue Innovation-Led Category Disruption

Our belief in the high demand for nutritious and delicious foods for babies through kids is reinforced by the success of our core portfolio and our track-record of carefully expanding and enhancing our offerings. For example, we have introduced more than 110 new products from new product lines since 2023. These new products are also quickly gaining market share as evidenced by the top three performance of our Dry Baby Snack SKUs within 6 months after launching, according to SPINS, U.S. MULO data17. Our strategic approach to product innovation contributes to complementary performance of our products across aisles. According to management estimates regarding consumer purchasing behavior of our products, approximately 48% of households buying our Refrigerated Kid products cross-shop our products across additional categories where available, ultimately resulting in larger baskets, benefiting both our brand and our retail customers.

Our goal is to continue meeting the evolving needs and preferences of our consumers. We are witnessing a growing demand for functional baby and kid nutritional offerings due to the prevalence and rise of health and wellness trends. Leveraging the direct connections with parents built through our DTC website and our extensive consumer analytics, we believe we have the platform to enhance and expand our existing portfolio to fulfill these unmet needs and preferences. This includes building out our functional portfolio across formats, temperature states, and key elements such as protein, brain health support, and gut health support, which not only provide parents the functionality they are looking for but also satisfy the cravings of babies and kids.

Innovation is at the core of our Company, and we constantly strive to create new products that align with our core values and mission of providing tasty, fresh, and organic food to families without compromise. By leveraging our established reputation and trust with families, led by our disruptive baby portfolio, we can strategically deliver innovative products to older kids. This will expand our brand and extend the lifetime value of our core consumers. We believe there are several high-potential adjacent categories where we can leverage our tested brand standards for ingredients, nutrition, and taste, to provide consumers with new and improved choices across the kid’s lunchboxes. We have also developed a robust pipeline to serve key needs that we believe will make Once Upon a Farm a one-stop-shop for all things baby. We are confident that through innovation in new products, product line extensions, and packaging types, we will continue to drive meaningful growth for our Company.

Drive Sustained, Profitable Growth

We have made significant investments into building out our infrastructure to support balanced long-term growth and to enhance the profitability of our core operating model as we grow. Our gross margins for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 were 42.3%, 43.6% and 41.1%. Our ongoing optimization efforts have already delivered over $25 million in annual savings. Our investments include assembling best-in-class talent from high-growth, CPG, and public company backgrounds, implementing strategic sales management principles, building scalable information and technology systems, and establishing a “follow the harvest” global procurement network. These investments are designed to drive execution of our growth strategy and significant operating leverage to our model as we continue to grow. We believe we have been able to reduce final-mile delivery costs by more than 26% in the last three years while maintaining a responsive, customer-first experience.

Additionally, we have developed a scalable production platform with partners who understand and believe in our brand, share our commitment to quality, and have invested alongside us to support our growth. These investments in expanded capacity and operational efficiency have been integral to our margin expansion efforts, and we believe they will continue to be so in the future. With our extensive experience and expertise in manufacturing and procurement, developed in collaboration with our trusted partners, we believe we are well-positioned to consistently deliver the highest quality, premium products to our consumers while also ensuring profitability and sustainability for Once Upon a Farm.

17 Numerator, Six months post-March 2024 launch.

As we extend our presence with existing retail customers, we believe there is also opportunity to further increase our operating margins. The strength of our brand and ability to efficiently deliver industry-disrupting products to our consumers have consistently resulted in attractive and expanding gross margins.

We expect our highly disciplined financial model and leading gross margin profile to be significant drivers of value going forward.

Our Product Quality and Safety

We go to great lengths to ensure product quality, consistency, and safety from ingredient sourcing to finished product by enforcing strict supplier qualifications, audits, and thorough, regular testing of all raw materials and finished products. Through routine third-party testing and our conscious partnership with the Clean Label Project, we work to ensure our products meet rigorous standards and limitations for heavy metals, pesticides, and plasticizers. Additionally, a majority of our materials come from partnerships with trusted farmers that we source, who prioritize high-quality organic ingredients. We also work closely with our high-quality co-manufacturers and maintain strong oversight of the production of our products. We collaborate with highly skilled food safety and quality assurance personnel consisting of quality assurance supervisors, specialists, analysts, and quality technicians with significant experience in food production, including specialized processes like high, cold pressure processing. In addition, in late 2024, to prevent against any future potential product contaminations, we increased the frequency and breadth of our finished product testing, began utilizing high-pressure processing for certain of our frozen product lines as an additional precautionary measure, and implemented a more robust monitoring program to identify potential problems prior to our products reaching the shelf.

Our co-manufacturers’ production processes are built to meet validated, science-based food safety and quality standards, aligned with regulatory requirements and industry best practices. Each facility maintains detailed quality plans that outline procedures for monitoring critical control points, calibrating equipment, recording production and sanitation data, and executing corrective and preventive actions as needed. We implement a positive release protocol whereby no finished product can be released for shipment until all required documentation, control point records, and, if required, laboratory test results have been reviewed and approved by appropriate quality assurance personnel. Prior to the start of production, quality assurance personnel perform pre-operational swabbing to verify that surfaces are free from potential environmental or allergen contaminants. We believe that these rigorous quality systems and preventive controls help ensure product integrity and support regulatory compliance.

Customers & Distributors

We market and sell our products throughout North America, generating the vast majority of our sales in the United States. We currently sell our products to end customers through retail channels, which include more than 20,000 traditional brick-and-mortar retail stores, e-commerce platforms, and delivery platforms, as well as directly to consumers through our DTC platform. Our retail customers include grocery stores, large national retailers and clubs, and natural and specialty food stores, and the e-commerce platforms that they operate. We believe there are attractive growth prospects for us across all of these channels as we continue increasing distribution and household penetration.

Grocery: Our customers in this channel include large national retailers such as Kroger, Publix, Wegmans, Wakefern, and Albertsons/Safeway.

Mass: Our customers in this channel include large national retailers such as Walmart and Target.

Club: Our customers in this channel include national retailers such as Costco, Sam’s Club, and BJ’s.

Natural/Specialty: Our customers in this channel include large national retailers such as Whole Foods Market and Sprouts Farmers Market, as well as regional natural chains and independent natural foods cooperatives.

E-commerce: Our customers in this channel purchase our products online through our own DTC platform or through third-party e-commerce and delivery platforms such as Instacart, Amazon, and Thrive Market.

We sell our products directly to retailers and through distributors. We use both an internal national sales force with national and regional account management as well as brokers to support our sales effort. A relatively limited number of customers account for a large percentage of our revenue. Four customers who purchase directly from us accounted for approximately 61% of our net sales for the year ended December 31, 2025. See Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry—The loss of a significant customer, certain actions or requirements by a significant customer, or financial difficulties of a significant customer could adversely affect our results of operations.”

Raw Materials

We maintain a USDA Certified Organic Standard across our portfolio and aspire toward the highest standards in social responsibility for the materials we source. Raw materials used in our business consist of ingredients and packaging materials that we source primarily from suppliers in the United States, South/Central America, and Mexico. According to management estimates, approximately 40% of our ingredients are sourced from foreign suppliers, while approximately 98% of our packaging materials are sourced domestically. We have rigorous standards for food quality and safety to ensure responsible sourcing of our raw materials and packaging in accordance with these standards. According to management estimates, approximately 73.1% of our domestic ingredients are sourced from farms certified by EFI, which collaborates with produce growers to enhance transparency in the food chain, improve quality, and promote healthier workplaces by recognizing and honoring that the skills and contributions of farmworkers create healthier work environments and produce safer food. Our ingredients are generally available in adequate quantities from multiple suppliers.

Marketing & Advertising

Our marketing strategy is designed to solidify our brand’s positioning as a leading source of childhood nutrition with a deep connection to our consumers built on trust, quality, transparency, and authenticity. We use a multi-faceted, consumer-driven approach that spans social media, traditional marketing, and national media campaigns that are focused on driving consumer awareness and mental availability. We aim to not only increase brand awareness and household penetration but also to educate parents about our product offerings and the benefits of organic foods and snacks for children.

We engage and connect with consumers through our full-funnel, modern marketing initiatives. By creating authentic, peer-to-peer connections, we promote future sharing of our brand through word-of-mouth. This approach includes leveraging critical retail media networks, celebrity backing, influencer and ambassador programs, high-frequency national media campaigns, engaging social media, impactful partnerships, and sponsorships and immersive in-store activations. We are confident that once consumers are introduced to our brand and our products, we can efficiently drive consideration and conversion from trials to repeat purchases, further fostering long-term loyalty.

Our in-store coolers also serve as local points of advertisement in retail stores through a “billboard effect” of branding on shelf. The majority of our coolers are exclusive to our product.

Competition

We operate in a highly competitive environment. Our products compete with large conventional packaged foods companies as well as natural and organic packaged foods companies. Large conventional packaged foods competitors include Nestle S.A., Danone, General Mills, Inc., Mondelez International, Inc., and Lactalis. Natural and organic packaged foods competitors include The Hain Celestial Group, Inc., The Hero Group, Sun-Maid Growers of California, Serenity Kids, Cerebelly, Little Spoon, Clio, Mid-day Squares, Mooski, YUMI, and Little Bellies.

Some of our competitors enjoy significantly greater resources. Given the North American retail landscape is dominated by large retailers, with limited shelf space and a significant number of competing products, competitors actively support their brands through marketing, advertising, promotional spending, and discounting.

Competitive factors in the packaged foods industry include product quality and taste, brand awareness and loyalty, product variety, interesting or unique product names, product packaging and package design, shelf space, reputation,

price, advertising, promotion, and nutritional claims. We believe that we currently compete effectively with respect to each of these factors.

Human Capital Resources

Attracting and retaining talent at all levels is vital to continuing our success. We promote the work-life balance of our employees, as we invest in our employees through high-quality benefits and various health and wellness initiatives. As of December 31, 2025, we had 153 employees, substantially all of whom work remotely on a permanent basis. We continue to believe this commitment to, and cultivation of, a remote workforce has enabled us to attract top talent across the country, and it has had a positive impact on employee retention and engagement. To further incentivize and engage our workforce, we provide our employees with competitive compensation. All of our full-time employees are eligible for health insurance, life insurance, paid parental leave, volunteer leave, 401(k) matching, incentive equity compensation, and technology and wellness stipends. None of our employees are represented by a labor union or by any collective bargaining arrangements with respect to their employment with us.

Our leadership team’s belief in our mission and shared values underpinning our organization has fostered a winning culture that prioritizes high-performance, excellence in execution, talent development, trust, and open communication. We believe that the combination of the brand we’ve built, the confidence we have in our future growth, and the powerful attraction of our core mission has enabled us to attract best-in-class candidates across CPG and retain top talent, creating a deep bench of talent at all management levels. We further prioritize training and otherwise nurturing that talent as critical to our long-term success. We are proud of our high employee engagement scores and best-in-class retention statistics. Our culture is the glue that holds our organization together, and as a result, has made us a highly sought-after place to work. Our team is motivated by a shared goal: to sustainably nourish families for years to come. As just one example of this devotion, we proudly formed our A Million Meals program in partnership with the non-profit organization, Save the Children. Through this program, we have pledged to distribute 1,000,000 nutritious meals to children in food-insecure communities in the United States.

Seasonality

Historically, we have experienced greater revenue growth in the first and third fiscal quarters than in the second and fourth quarters, driven by dairy section category resets in the first quarter and customer merchandising and promotional activities around the spring season and back-to-school period in the third quarter. As a result, inventory levels and working capital requirements typically increase in the second and fourth quarters to support the anticipated higher sales in the following quarters. We expect this seasonal impact on revenue and working capital to continue. Accordingly, our results of operations for any particular quarter are not indicative of the results we expect for the full year.

Trademarks and Other Intellectual Property

We believe that our intellectual property has substantial value and has contributed significantly to the success of our business to date. In particular, we believe that our trademarks and service marks are important to our marketing efforts to develop brand recognition, differentiate our products from those of our competitors, and reinforce consumers’ favorable perception of our products. We own a number of trademarks and service marks that have been registered, or for which applications are pending, with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, including, among others, Once Upon a Farm, A Better Story Starts Here, Tractor Wheels, Where Good Eaters Grow, and Farm-Fresh Taste Grows Here. Certain of our marks are also registered in foreign jurisdictions, including, among others, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, and the European Union. We also own the Internet domain names uponafarm.com and onceuponafarmorganics.com, among others.

We are continually enhancing our proprietary formulas and refining processes across our products and manufacturing operations. Our competitive position relies on unpatented proprietary innovations, technical expertise, specialized know-how, recipes, formulations, and other trade secrets. These assets enable us to develop new products, improve operational efficiencies, and differentiate ourselves in the marketplace.

Government Regulation

Along with our co-packers, co-manufacturers, distributors, and suppliers, we are subject to extensive laws and regulations in the United States by federal, state, and local government authorities, including registration and licensing requirements for our facilities, enforcement of standards for our products and facilities by state and local health agencies, regulation of our trade practices in connection with selling our products, and all other matters that impact food safety regulation. In the United States, the federal agencies governing the manufacture, distribution and advertising of our products include, among others, the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”), the USDA, the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”), the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency. Under various statutes, these agencies, among other things, prescribe the requirements and establish the standards for quality and safety and regulate our marketing and advertising to consumers.

Certain of these agencies, in certain circumstances, must not only approve our products, but also review the manufacturing processes and facilities used to produce these products before they can be marketed in the United States. Among other things, the facilities in which our products are manufactured or processed must register with the FDA and/or the USDA, comply with current good manufacturing practices and comply with a range of food safety and labeling requirements established by the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act of 1938, as amended by the Food Safety Modernization Act of 2011 (“FSMA”), the Organic Foods Production Act of 1990, and the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946, among other laws implemented by the FDA, the USDA, and other regulators. The FDA and the USDA have the authority to inspect these facilities depending on the type of product involved. Relatedly, we are subject to governmental scrutiny of and public awareness regarding food safety and the sale, packaging, and marketing of natural and organic products. For example, “Proposition 65, the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986,” in California exposes all food companies to the possibility of having to provide warnings on their products in that state. As a baby food company, we are also subject to Assembly Bill 899 in California, which requires manufacturers of baby food to (i) test and disclose the levels of four toxic elements (arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury) that may be present in baby food and (ii) meet particular labeling requirements.

Additionally, we are subject to requirements under FSMA’s foreign supplier verification program and import tariffs, bond and other requirements by U.S. Customs and Border Protection for supply for certain of our ingredients, which we may import from South and Central America and Mexico, among other regions outside of the United States. The FDA and the USDA also require that certain nutrition and product information appear on our product labels and, more generally, that our labels and labeling be truthful and non-misleading. Similarly, the FTC requires that our marketing and advertising be truthful, non-misleading, and not deceptive to consumers. We are also restricted from making certain types of claims about our products, including nutrient content claims, health claims, organic claims, and claims regarding the effects of our products on any structure or function of the body, whether express or implied, unless we satisfy certain regulatory requirements. Internationally, we are subject to the laws and regulatory authorities of the foreign jurisdictions in which we manufacture and sell our products, including the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.

We are also subject to labor and employment laws, laws governing advertising, privacy laws, safety regulations and other laws, including consumer protection regulations. Our operations, and those of our co-manufacturers, co-packers, distributors, and suppliers, are subject to various laws and regulations relating to environmental protection and worker health and safety matters. We monitor changes in these laws and believe that we are in material compliance with applicable laws.

Public Benefit Corporation Status

As a demonstration of our long-term commitment to our mission to offer delicious and nutritious snacks and meals for children of all ages, we elected in March 2021 to be treated as a public benefit corporation under Delaware law.

Under Delaware law, a public benefit corporation is required to identify in its certificate of incorporation the public benefit or benefits it will promote and its directors have a duty to manage the affairs of the corporation in a manner that balances the pecuniary interests of the corporation’s stockholders, the best interests of those materially affected by the corporation’s conduct, and the specific public benefit or public benefits identified in the public benefit corporation’s certificate of incorporation. Public benefit corporations organized in Delaware are also required to assess

their benefit performance internally and to deliver a report to stockholders at least biennially, detailing their success in meeting their benefit objectives.

As provided in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “certificate of incorporation”), the public benefits that we promote, and pursuant to which we manage our Company, are: (i) driving improvements in childhood nutrition for a healthier and happier planet; (ii) committing to a portfolio of products and an innovation pipeline that leads in how it approaches access, nutrient excellence, and changing the fresh snacking marketplace; (iii) working across our industry on recyclability initiatives and investing in renewable energy sources while continuing to implement improved sustainability measures across its organization; and (iv) supporting and championing farmers, organic foods, sustainable agriculture, and community engagement.

Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry

If our products are contaminated, alleged to be contaminated or are rumored to have adverse effects, or if our products are alleged to cause illness or injury, be mislabeled, or misbranded or fail to comply with governmental regulations, we may suffer adverse public relations, need to recall our products and experience product liability claims.

The sale of food products involves the risk of illness or injury to consumers. Such illness and injury may result from inadvertent mislabeling, tampering by unauthorized third parties, product contamination, food-borne illnesses, allergens, or spoilage. We believe our consumers rely on us to provide them with high-quality natural and organic food products. Concerns regarding the ingredients used in our products, the safety or quality of our products, or our supply chain may cause consumers to stop purchasing our products, even if the basis for the concern is unfounded, has been addressed, or is outside of our control. There can be no assurance that our products, many of which contain ingredients that we buy from third-party suppliers, will always comply with the standards set for our products. For example, genetically modified organisms may contaminate our products (including through cross-pollination) and not be easily detected, a potential issue that may be exacerbated if we are unable to trace the affected raw materials to their supplier lots. While we are subject to governmental inspection and regulations and believe our facilities and those of our co-manufacturers and suppliers, including co-packers, comply in all material respects with all applicable laws and regulations, if ingredients or materials used for our products are alleged or proved to include contaminants that

affect the safety or quality of our products or are otherwise rumored to have adverse effects, for any reason, we may need to find alternate ingredients or materials for our products, delay production of our products, or discard or otherwise dispose of our products, which could adversely affect our results of operations.

We have in the past and may in the future be exposed to product recalls, including voluntary recalls or withdrawals, and adverse public relations if our products are alleged to cause illness or injury or if we are alleged to have mislabeled or misbranded our products or otherwise violated governmental regulations. We may also voluntarily recall or withdraw products that we consider below our standards, whether for taste, appearance or otherwise, in order to protect our brand’s reputation. Product recalls or withdrawals can result in substantial and unexpected expenditures, destruction of product inventory, and lost sales due to the unavailability of the product for a period of time, which could reduce profitability and cash flow. In addition, a product recall or withdrawal may require significant management attention. As an example, in June 2024 we initiated a voluntary recall of a single product due to potential Listeria contamination, which we discovered after conducting routine finished product testing. See Part I, Item 1. “Business—Our Product Quality and Safety.” Although we received no reports of harm to customers as a result of this potential contamination, this recall resulted in diversion of management time to identify and remediate the issue. Product recalls, product liability claims (even if unmerited or unsuccessful), or any other events that cause consumers to no longer associate our brand with high-quality may also result in adverse publicity or legal challenges, harm our reputation and hurt the value of our brand, lead to a decline in consumer confidence in and demand for our products, and lead to increased scrutiny, fines, or other penalties by federal and state regulatory agencies of our operations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. For example, despite our rigorous testing for heavy metals (e.g., arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury), and our robust programs to ensure compliance with food safety laws and regulations, such as Assembly Bill 899 in California, we may fail to adequately detect such toxins before our products reach the shelf, which could subject our products to a recall, and may negatively impact consumer perception of our products and our reputation.

We also may be subject to product liability claims and adverse public relations if consumption or use of our products is alleged to cause injury or illness, and our insurance may not be adequate to cover all liabilities we may incur in connection with product liability claims. For example, punitive damages are generally not covered by insurance. In addition, we may not be able to continue to maintain our existing insurance, obtain comparable insurance at a reasonable cost, if at all, or secure additional coverage (which may result in future product liability claims being uninsured). A product liability judgment against us or an agreement to settle a product liability claim could also result in substantial and unexpected expenditures, which would reduce profitability and cash flow. In addition, even if product liability claims against us are not successful or are not fully pursued, these claims could harm our brand’s image, be costly and time-consuming and may require management to spend time defending the claims rather than operating our business. From time to time, we have and may continue to be subject to claims from competitors or consumers, including consumer class actions, alleging that our product claims are deceptive, such as products being mislabeled or misbranded. For example, we have had legal claims brought against us in California for our use of the phrases “4g Plant Protein,” “Omega-3’s,” and “Excellent Source of Choline” in describing certain of our products. These claims were ultimately resolved and settled for an immaterial amount. In addition, we have been named in a putative nationwide class action lawsuit by plaintiffs alleging that our Wild Rumpus Avocado pouch (which is a blend of organic pineapple, banana, apple, avocado and mint) should be described solely as a “Fruit Blend” rather than a “Fruit & Veggie Blend.” Regardless of their merit, these types of claims can require significant time and expense to investigate and defend. Whether or not a false marketing claim is successful, such assertions could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations, and the negative publicity surrounding them could harm our reputation and brand.

Adverse publicity about the quality or safety of our products, whether or not ultimately based on fact, may discourage consumers from buying our products and have an adverse effect on our brand, reputation, and operating results, particularly if our products are perceived as posing illness or risk of injury to children. We have no control over our products once purchased by consumers. Accordingly, consumers may fail to refrigerate our products or store our products for long periods of time, which may adversely affect the quality of our products. If consumers do not perceive our products to be of high-quality, our reputation and the value of our brand could be diminished, and our business, financial condition, and results of operations would be adversely affected. Any loss of confidence on the part of consumers in the ingredients used in our products or in the safety and quality of our products would be difficult and costly to overcome. Further, the growing use of social and digital media by us, our consumers, and third parties increases the speed and extent that information or misinformation and opinions can be shared. Negative publicity

about us, our brand, or our products on social or digital media could seriously damage our brand and reputation. If we do not maintain a favorable perception of our brand, our business, reputation, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected. Any such adverse effect on our business, reputation, results of operations, or financial condition could be exacerbated by our position in the market as a socially conscious, Clean Label Project-certified purveyor of high-quality natural and organic food products and may significantly reduce our brand value.

The inputs, commodities, and ingredients that we require are subject to macroeconomic factors, government regulation, and other factors outside of our and our suppliers’ control, including, but not limited to, price increases, inflationary and interest rate pressures, tariffs, trade wars, product or agricultural industry labor shortages, livestock disease or pestilence, any of which could adversely affect our results of operations.

Prices for our inputs, commodities, and ingredients that we use may be volatile, and we may experience shortages in these items due to factors beyond our control, such as commodity market fluctuations, animal feed and plant fertilizer costs, availability of supply, increased demand (whether for the item we require or for other items, which in turn impacts the item we require), weather patterns and conditions, natural disasters, the effects of climate change, currency fluctuations, inflationary and/or interest rate pressures, governmental programs and regulations (including import restrictions), trade and tariff policies, agricultural programs or issues, energy programs, geopolitical concerns, including the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia, labor strikes and shortages, the financial health of our suppliers, and pandemics or other outbreaks of contagious diseases. For instance, in recent years, we have experienced elevated commodity and supply chain costs, including the costs of raw materials, packaging, labor, energy, fuel, freight, and other inputs necessary for the production and distribution of our products, and we expect elevated levels of inflation to continue in 2026. Such elevated commodity and supply chain costs and inflation levels did not have a material impact on our results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 or 2024. Our ability to meet our needs for these inputs while controlling for the applicable costs is subject to external factors, such as employment levels, prevailing wage rates, minimum wage legislation, changing demographics, health and other insurance costs, and governmental labor and employment requirements. See Part II, Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Key Factors Affecting our Performance—Macroeconomic Uncertainty and Supply Chain Costs.”

Uncertainty around potential tariffs, embargoes, or similar restrictions could cause disruption in our supply chain, whether or not any such tariffs, embargoes, or similar restrictions are ultimately enacted, and could have a negative material impact on our business and our profitability. For example, in 2025, the U.S. presidential administration announced the imposition of tariffs on numerous countries that trade with the United States. As the implementation of tariffs is ongoing, more tariffs may be added in the future and countermeasures may be adopted by other countries. The imposition of certain of these tariffs remains uncertain as the situation is dynamic and rapidly evolving. If allowed to become or remain effective, these or any new or increased tariffs or resultant trade wars could have an adverse effect on us or on our suppliers, which could lead to significant increases in the costs of materials, and as a result could negatively impact our results of operations, cash flow, and financial condition. New or increased tariffs could also negatively affect U.S. national or regional economies or lead to increased inflation or a recession, which also could negatively impact our sales growth, and our business and results of operations. Any tariffs or other barriers to trade affecting Mexico and South America in particular, two regions from which we source a significant portion of our key fruit and vegetable ingredients, could lead to, among other things, shortages and higher cost of procurement, and could negatively impact our business and profitability.

Further, our freight costs have increased and may continue to increase due to factors such as inflation and increased demand, labor shortages, increased fuel costs, limited carrier availability, increased compliance costs associated with new or changing government regulations, pandemics, or other outbreaks of contagious diseases. Higher prices for natural gas, propane, electricity, and fuel may also increase our ingredient, production, and delivery costs. Historically, the prices of certain of our raw materials, energy, and other supplies used in our business have fluctuated widely. In addition, we have experienced shortages of certain of our raw materials, which result in us paying increased costs for such inputs and impact our ability to produce our products. Production delays could lead to reduced sales volumes and profitability, as well as loss of market share. The prices charged for our products may not reflect changes in our input costs at the time they occur, or at all. Accordingly, changes in input, commodity, and ingredient costs may limit our ability to maintain existing margins and may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. If we are not able to implement our productivity initiatives, lock in prices on quantities required to meet our anticipated production requirements or increase our product prices to offset price

increases of our inputs, commodities, and ingredients, consumers may shift to lower priced product offerings, or may forego some purchases altogether, which would adversely affect our results of operations. Our competitors may be better able than we are to implement productivity initiatives or effect price increases or to otherwise pass along cost increases to their customers. Moreover, if we increase our prices in response to increased costs, we may need to increase marketing spending, including trade promotion spending, in order to retain our market share. Such increased marketing spending may significantly offset the benefits, if any, of any price increase and materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

If we do not manage our supply chain effectively, including inventory levels and transportation services, our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be adversely affected.

Our supply chain is complex and critical to our ability to manufacture, package, transport, and sell products. The inability of any supplier, co-packer, co-manufacturer, third-party distributor, or transportation provider to deliver or perform for us in a timely or cost-effective manner for any reason could cause our operating costs to increase and our profit margins to decrease. We must continuously monitor our inventory and product mix against forecasted demand or risk having inadequate supplies to meet consumer demand and customer expectations, as well as having too much inventory on hand that may reach its expiration date and become unsaleable. In addition, if we are unable to maintain and develop our processing, manufacturing, and production capacity as we continue to grow and scale our business, we may face higher rates of out of stock products, which may result in customer order cancellations and overall customer dissatisfaction, and may cause us to lose certain opportunities or damage our relationships with our retail customers. If we are unable to manage our inventory levels effectively and ensure that our products are available to meet consumer demand and customer expectations or requirements, our operating costs could increase and our profit margins could decrease.

Further, changes in the availability and cost of freight may affect our supply chain and ultimately the pricing and availability of our products. We use third-party transportation providers for our product shipments and rely on a limited number of primary providers for almost all of our shipments. Transportation services include scheduling and coordinating transportation of finished products to our customers, shipment tracking, and freight dispatch services. Our use of transportation services for shipments is subject to risks, including increases in fuel prices, which would increase our shipping costs and employee strikes and inclement weather, which may impact the ability of providers to provide delivery services that adequately meet our shipping needs, including keeping our products adequately refrigerated during shipment. Any such change could cause us to incur costs and expend resources. Our failure to successfully manage our logistics and fulfillment processes could cause a significant disruption in our supply chain. Moreover, in the future, we may not be able to obtain terms as favorable as those we receive from the third-party transportation providers that we currently use, which in turn would increase our costs and thereby adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, given our continued growth, we may be unable to locate other third-party transportation providers with favorable terms or at all, which could prevent us from meeting increased customer demand and harm our business.

Our future results of operations may be adversely affected by the availability of natural, plant-rich, and organic ingredients.

We are subject to cybersecurity risks and may incur increasing costs in an effort to minimize those risks, which efforts may or may not be effective. Security incidents may result in legal and financial exposure and reputational harm.

In the course of our business, we collect and process information, including personal, proprietary, and confidential information, from our customers, employees, suppliers, and others, including personal identification information.

While we take steps designed to ensure the security of such information and of our information technology systems, such measures may not be adequate to prevent disclosure or loss of such information or unauthorized access to or compromise of such systems or the data that is stored or processed by these systems. We also rely on third-party service providers to secure certain information technology systems and our data. Security incidents (including but not limited to, successful phishing attacks, ransomware attacks, denial-of-service attacks, and computer malware) are prevalent in our industry and could disrupt our business operations and expose us to a risk of loss or misuse of this information, litigation, liability, and reputational harm. We, or third-party service providers on whom we rely, may not successfully anticipate, or prevent rapidly-evolving types of cybersecurity threats, including those generated by AI, and our or their security measures may not be adequate to prevent attacks. Attacks may be targeted at us, our customers, and suppliers or others who we have entrusted with our information. Actual or suspected cyber-attacks may disrupt our business operations and cause us to experience reduced sales volume and to incur increasing costs, including costs to deploy additional personnel and protection technologies, provide additional training for employees, engage third-party experts and consultants, make notifications to governmental bodies and affected individuals and provide remedial measures (such as credit monitoring) to such individuals, and may subject us to fines or litigation. In addition, data and security breaches can also occur as a result of non-technical issues, including breach by us, our employees or by persons with whom we have commercial relationships that result in the unauthorized release of personal or confidential information. Furthermore, the increased use of smartphones, tablets, and other wireless devices, as well as our remote-first work-from-home arrangements for a substantial portion of our corporate employees, may heighten these and other operational risks. Any compromise or breach of our security, or those of our third-party service providers, could result in a violation of applicable privacy and other laws, including federal, state, and foreign laws, which could result in significant legal and financial exposure and a loss of confidence in our security measures, which could have an adverse effect on our business, reputation, financial condition, and results of operations.

If our reputation or the reputation of our products, management team, or co-founders erodes significantly, it could have a material impact on our business.

Our financial success is directly dependent on the perception of us and our products, management team, and co-founders, including Jennifer Garner, among our customers, consumers, employees, and other constituents. Our results could be negatively impacted if we, our products, or any of our management members or co-founders suffer substantial reputational damage due to any number of reasons, including real or perceived issues related to the quality or safety of our products, employee relations, or our governance and sustainability practices. In particular, we believe the success of our brand depends in part on our ongoing affiliation with Jennifer Garner.

In addition, if our public partners face negative scrutiny from certain constituencies, or are subject to private investigations or public inquiries, this in turn may damage our reputation. Further, the growing use of social media by consumers has greatly increased the speed and extent that information or misinformation and opinions can be shared. Negative posts or comments about us, our management team, co-founders, public partners, or products on social media could seriously damage our brand and reputation. Additionally, negative reactions to our marketing and advertising, including our social media content, could result in damage to our products and reputation.

Adverse weather conditions, natural disasters, pestilences, global or local pandemics, climate change, and other conditions beyond our control can disrupt our operations, which can adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our ability to ensure a continuing supply of natural and organic ingredients used in certain of our products at competitive prices depends on many factors beyond our control, such as the number and size of farms that grow natural and organic crops, climate conditions, increased demand for natural and organic ingredients by our competitors for these scarce ingredients, global unrest, changes in national and global economic conditions, and currency fluctuations. The ingredients that we use in the production of our products (including, among others, vegetables, fruits, whole grains, vitamins, and minerals) are vulnerable to adverse weather conditions and natural disasters, such as floods, droughts, water scarcity, frosts, fires, hurricanes, temperature extremes, extreme storms, wildfires, earthquakes, tornadoes, infestations, and pestilences. Further, global climate change may exacerbate adverse weather conditions and natural disasters, and cause other effects that could impact our operations, such as extreme temperatures and rising sea levels. Adverse weather conditions and natural disasters, including as a result of climate change, can reduce crop size and crop quality, which in turn could reduce our supply of ingredients, lower recoveries of usable ingredients,

increase the prices of our ingredients, increase our transportation costs, or increase our cost of storing ingredients if harvests are accelerated and processing capacity is unavailable. Additionally, the growth of crops, as well as the manufacturing and processing of our products, requires significant amounts of water. Drought or other causes of a reduction of water in aquifers may affect availability of water, which in turn may adversely affect our results of operations. Such potential water shortages may have a particular impact on our sourcing of certain key ingredients that we use in our products, such as apple, banana, strawberry, pineapple, mango, blueberry, and pear, given they are sourced in part from high water stress areas, including southern California and Mexico. Competing manufacturers may be affected differently by weather conditions and natural disasters depending on the location of their supplies or operations. If our supply of natural and organic ingredients is reduced, we may not be able to find enough supplemental supply sources on favorable terms, if at all, which could impact our ability to supply product to our customers and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Additionally, adverse weather conditions, natural disasters, or other natural conditions, including global or local pandemics affecting our operating activities could cause an interruption or delay in our production or delivery schedules and loss of inventory and/or data or render us unable to accept and fulfill customer orders in a timely manner, or at all. Further, any related losses may not be adequately covered by insurance and the continued impacts of climate change may make it challenging to obtain insurance on acceptable terms, or at all. If our operations are damaged by a fire, flood, or other disaster, for example, we may be subject to supply or delivery interruptions, destruction of our facilities and products or other business disruptions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. During the past several years, we have seen an increase in the frequency and intensity of severe weather events, and we expect this trend to continue due to climate change. While we may take various actions to mitigate our business risks associated with climate change, this may require us to incur substantial costs and may not be successful, due to, among other things, the uncertainty associated with managing climate risks. Such climate risks may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

If we fail to retain and motivate members of our management team or other key team members, including our co-founders, or fail to attract, train, develop, and retain additional qualified team members to support our operations, our business and future growth prospects may be harmed.

Our success and future growth depend largely upon the continued services of our executive officers as well as our other key team members, including our co-founders. These executives and key team members are primarily responsible for determining the strategic direction of our business and for executing our growth strategy and are integral to our brand, culture, and the reputation we enjoy with farmers, suppliers (including co-packers), co-manufacturers, distributors, customers, and consumers. From time to time, there may be changes in our executive management team or other key team members resulting from the hiring or departure of these personnel. The loss of one or more of our executive officers, or the failure by our executive team to effectively work with our team members and lead our Company, could harm our business. We rely heavily on key product development and brand strategy employees to fulfill our mission to create delicious and nutritious, farm-fresh products. The loss of certain key personnel may prevent us from successfully implementing our growth strategy, which could adversely affect our business. Furthermore, effective succession planning for executive management and key personnel is vital to our long-term continued success. Failure to ensure effective transfer of knowledge, maintenance of our culture, setting of strategic direction, and smooth transitions involving executive management and key personnel could hinder our long-term strategies and success. In addition, our success and ability to achieve our operating goals depends in part upon our ability to identify, attract, hire, train, develop, and retain a sufficient number of team members who understand and appreciate our culture and can represent our brand effectively and establish credibility with our business partners and consumers. We compete with other companies both within and outside of our industry for talented employees. If we are unable to hire and retain employees capable of performing at a high-level, our ability to efficiently operate our overall business could be adversely affected. Moreover, if we are unable to win in a competitive market for top talent capable of meeting our business needs and expectations, our business and brand image may be impaired. Additionally, substantially all of our team members work remotely on a permanent basis. Although we believe we manage our operations to handle remote working conditions efficiently, it is possible that such remote work arrangements could adversely impact team member cohesiveness, efficiency, professional development, operational agility, and retention. Any failure to meet our staffing needs or any material increase in turnover rates of our team members could lead to increased costs, such as increased overtime to meet demand, costs to hire and train new employees, and increased wage rates, salaries, or employee benefits to attract and retain employees. An overall labor shortage, lack of skilled labor, increased turnover, labor inflation, and changes in applicable employment laws and regulations could lead to

increased labor costs and/or reduced operating efficiencies, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

In addition, we believe our brand depends, in part, on our ongoing affiliation with Jennifer Garner. We have an agreement with Ms. Garner, which, among other things, includes a license for her likeness and imposes various obligations on us. See Part III, Item 11. “Executive Compensation—Narrative Disclosure to Director Compensation Table” and Item 13. “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Arrangements with Jennifer Garner.” The agreement may be terminated by Ms. Garner upon a number of circumstances, including if John Foraker ceases to be the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Upon termination of the agreement, we could, among other things, lose our ability to associate the brand with Ms. Garner and sustain reputational damage. The loss of the services of Ms. Garner, or the loss of our ability to use Ms. Garner’s likeness, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Our brand may also depend on the positive image of Ms. Garner to maintain and increase brand recognition. If Ms. Garner’s image, reputation, or popularity is materially and adversely affected, this could negatively affect the marketability and sales of our products and could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our reliance on a limited number of independent contract manufacturers and suppliers, including co-packers, for certain equipment, ingredients, and packaging materials and processes could negatively impact our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, all of our sales were derived from products manufactured at independent contract manufacturers, or co-manufacturers. We believe there are a limited number of high-quality co-manufacturers in the industry, and many of our co-manufacturers produce products for other companies as well. Therefore, if we lose or need to change one or more co-manufacturers or fail to retain co-manufacturers for newly acquired or developed products, production of our products may be delayed or postponed and/or the availability of some of our products may be reduced or eliminated, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. If we choose to diversify our supply chain through the addition of new co-manufacturers, there is no guarantee that any efforts to diversify our supply chain will be successful and such efforts may require a significant amount of time and resources. In addition, if we are not successful in our efforts to onboard new co-manufacturers, we may have an insufficient supply of products to meet customer demand, and our financial performance may be adversely affected.

We also rely on a limited number of third-party suppliers, including co-packers, to provide certain equipment, ingredients, and packaging materials and processes used in our business. The primary ingredients used in our business include fruits and vegetables, and 10 suppliers provide the majority of such ingredients as of December 31, 2025. We may not have adequate sources for the supply of such ingredients and packaging materials and processes, and increases in demand for such items and services (both within our industry and in general) can result in shortages and higher costs. Our suppliers may not be able to meet our delivery schedules, we may lose a significant or sole supplier, a supplier may not be able to meet performance and quality specifications, and we may not be able to purchase such items at a competitive cost. The failure for any reason of a supplier to fulfill its obligations under the applicable agreement with us or the termination or renegotiation of any such supply agreement could result in disruptions to our supply of finished goods and have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

Certain of our relationships with third-party ingredient and packaging suppliers are also subject to minimum volume commitments, whereby the third-party supplier has committed to sell, and we have committed to purchase, minimum quantities and we or, in some cases the third-party supplier, may alternatively pay the other a mostly fixed amount rather than sell or purchase the minimum quantities. Despite the minimum volume commitments, we may nonetheless experience situations where such third-party suppliers are unable to fulfill their minimum volume obligations under our agreements or cannot provide sufficient amounts of ingredients or packaging to meet consumer demand for our products, which may require us to incur additional expense by providing financial accommodations to the impacted supplier or take other steps to seek to minimize or avoid supply disruption, such as establishing a new supplier arrangement with another provider. During economic downturns, our suppliers may be more susceptible to experiencing such financial difficulties, bankruptcies, or other business disruptions. A new supplier arrangement may not be available on terms as favorable to us as our existing supplier arrangement, if at all. If we need to replace an existing third-party supplier, our products may not be available when required on acceptable terms, or at all. Also, if

demand for our products is significantly below our expectations, we may be obligated to pay penalties to our third-party suppliers for failing to purchase contracted minimum purchase quantities.

The loss of a significant customer, certain actions or requirements by a significant customer, or financial difficulties of a significant customer could adversely affect our results of operations.

Our growth and continued success depend upon, among other things, our ability to maintain and increase sales volumes with existing customers, our ability to attract new customers, the financial condition of our customers, and our ability to provide products that appeal to customers at the right price. A relatively limited number of customers account for a large percentage of our net sales. Two customers accounted for approximately 36% of our net sales for 2023, three customers accounted for approximately 43% of our net sales for 2024, and four customers accounted for approximately 61% of our net sales for 2025. This percentage may increase if there is consolidation among retailers or if mass merchandisers grow disproportionately to their competition. With the growing trend toward retail trade consolidation, the growing presence of large-format retailers, discounters, and e-commerce retailers, and the integration of traditional and digital operations at key retailers, we are increasingly dependent on certain retailers that may have greater bargaining strength than we do. Specifically, our growing dependence on e-commerce retailers compared to large-format retailers could lead to price concessions, unfavorable terms, or reduced shelf space. Retail customers may also use their leverage to demand higher trade discounts, allowances, slotting fees, or increased investment, which could result in reduced sales or profitability in certain markets.

We expect that a significant portion of our revenues will continue to be derived from a small number of customers; however, these customers may not continue to purchase our products in the same quantities as they have in the past. Our customers are not contractually obligated to purchase from us. Changes in our customers’ strategies, including a reduction in the number of brands they carry, shipping strategies, a shift of shelf space to or increased emphasis on private label products (including “store brands”), a reduction in shelf or refrigerator space for our products or a reduction in the space allocated for our coolers may adversely affect our sales. Requirements that may be imposed on us by our customers, such as sustainability, inventory management, or product specification requirements, may have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Additionally, especially during economic downturns, our customers may face financial difficulties, bankruptcy, or other business disruptions that may impact their operations and their purchases from us and may affect their ability to pay us for products purchased from us. To the extent customers seek to reduce their usual or customary inventory levels or change their practices regarding purchases in excess of consumer consumption, our sales and results of operations could be adversely impacted in that period. The loss of any large customer, a reduction of purchasing levels, or the cancellation of any business from a large customer for an extended length of time could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We could be adversely affected by a change in consumer preferences, perception, and spending habits in the natural food industry generally and with respect to kid and baby food products, in particular. Any failure to develop or enrich our product offerings or gain market acceptance of our new products could have a negative effect on our business.

We have positioned our brand to capitalize on growing consumer interest in natural, clean-label, traceable, ethically produced, great-tasting, and nutritious foods. The market in which we operate is subject to changes in consumer preference, perception, and spending habits. Our performance depends significantly on factors that may affect the level and pattern of consumer spending in the U.S. natural and organic kid and baby food industry in which we operate. Such factors include consumer preference, consumer confidence, consumer income, consumer perception of the safety and quality of our products, and shifts in the perceived value for our products relative to alternatives. Adverse messaging in the media, including social media, or within certain influencer communities, relating to the safety or quality of, or diet or health issues relating to, our products or the raw materials, ingredients, or processes involved in their manufacturing may damage consumer confidence in our products and damage our brand and reputation. A general decline in the consumption of our products could occur at any time as a result of changes in consumer preference, perception, confidence, and spending habits, including an unwillingness to pay a premium or an inability to purchase our products due to financial hardship or increased price sensitivity, which may be exacerbated by economic uncertainty and general inflationary trends. For example, a declining birth rate may affect the number of customers that purchase our products given our current product offerings are primarily targeted towards kids and babies. If our primary customer demographics shrink, our negotiation leverage with our retail customers may become

limited, and we may become a lower priority supplier in the eyes of our retail customers, which may negatively impact our results of operations. As another example, we and many of our customers face pressure from various private organizations to supply food products that conform with certain standards (for example, regarding lead and mercury content in food products) developed or approved by private organizations. If consumer preferences shift away from pouched products for kids and babies because of a decreased level of trust in our product safety practices or otherwise, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected.

The success of our products depends on a number of factors, including our ability to accurately anticipate changes in market demand and consumer preferences. For example, consumer preferences may shift towards baby-led weaning and whole foods, reducing the appeal of our products which are offered in formats such as pouches and jars. Our business may also be negatively impacted by changes in consumer concerns or perceptions surrounding product manufacturing processes and packaging materials, including single-use and other plastic packaging, and the environmental and sustainability impact of such manufacturing processes and packaging materials. If consumers disagree with our environmental and sustainability practices, including as they relate to our manufacturing processes, this may reduce their willingness to purchase our products and any inability on our part to anticipate or adapt to such changes in consumer preference could result in reduced demand for our products and/or increase the costs of producing our products, which could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We may underestimate the impact of shifting trends in consumer preferences or may not be successful in identifying such trends, and may fail to develop products that respond to such trends in a timely manner. We also may not be able to effectively promote our products by our marketing and advertising campaigns and gain market acceptance. If our products fail to gain market acceptance, are restricted by regulatory requirements, or have quality problems, we may not be able to fully recover costs and expenses incurred in our operations, and our business, financial condition, or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

We may not be able to successfully implement our growth strategy on a timely basis or at all.

Our future success depends, in large part, on our ability to implement our growth strategy by attracting new consumers to our brand and expanding distribution through various initiatives, including the continued deployment of coolers used for our products. Our ability to increase awareness and consumer trial and adoption of our products, and to implement our growth strategy, depends, among other things, on our ability to: implement our marketing strategy; expand and maintain brand loyalty; expand our in-store footprint through the execution of our national baby cooler deployment; develop new product lines and extensions of existing product lines; partner with distributors to deliver our products to customers; and continue to compete effectively in multiple classes of retail, including grocery, mass, club, natural/specialty, and e-commerce. We may not be able to successfully implement our growth strategy or to grow consistently from period to period.

Our business, financial condition, and results of operations will be adversely affected if we fail to implement our growth strategy or if we invest resources in a growth strategy that ultimately proves unsuccessful.

Furthermore, our growth strategy includes the expansion of our operations to international markets. Although some of our executive officers have experience in international business from prior positions, we have minimal experience with operations outside the United States and Canada. Our ability to successfully execute this strategy is affected by many of the same risks we face in expanding our operations. In addition, our international expansion may be adversely affected by: our ability to staff, develop, and manage foreign operations as a result of distance, language, and cultural differences; our ability to obtain and protect relevant trademarks, domain names, and other intellectual property; local laws, customs, and dietary preferences; legal and regulatory constraints; political and economic conditions; and currency fluctuations. Risks inherent in expanding our operations internationally also include, among others, the costs and difficulties of managing international operations, supply chain complexities, adverse tax consequences, domestic and international tariffs, and other barriers to trade. Further, the extent and impact of any sanctions imposed in connection with the escalation of hostilities between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East (including with Iran), or other geopolitical events, may impact our strategy of expansion into international markets.

Disruptions in the worldwide economy may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Adverse and uncertain economic conditions, including uncertainty related to inflation, tariffs, a potential recession, market volatility, outbreaks of contagious disease or pandemics, geopolitical tensions, and wars, including the Russia-Ukraine war and ongoing conflicts in the Middle East (including with Iran), or disruption in global financial and credit markets due to uncertainty in the banking system or bank failures may impact distributor, retailer, foodservice, and consumer demand for our products. In addition, our ability to manage normal commercial relationships with our farmers, suppliers, co-manufacturers, co-packers, distributors, retail customers, foodservice consumers, and creditors may suffer. Consumers may shift purchases to lower-priced or other perceived value offerings, including private label products, during economic downturns, and an economic downturn may cause customers to be less receptive to price increases on our products. Adverse economic conditions may also affect farmers in our network. In addition, any tariffs imposed by the U.S. presidential administration or retaliatory tariffs announced by other countries could result in a trade war. If effected, these or any new or increased tariffs or resultant trade wars could have an adverse effect on us or on our suppliers, distributors, or customers, which could lead to significant increases in the costs of materials and services, resulting in product cost increases and reduced consumer demand.

We may not have the resources to compete successfully in our highly competitive markets.

We operate in a highly and increasingly competitive market. Numerous brands and products compete for limited retailer shelf space and consumers. Our ability to differentiate our products from competitors’ offerings depends on a variety of factors, including, among other things, consistent product quality and taste, brand recognition and loyalty, product variety, distinctive product names, product packaging and package design, shelf space, reputation, price, advertising, promotion, and nutritional claims. We face increased competition in our markets due to increased adoption of natural and organic food products by consumers. We also compete with companies in the procurement of natural and organic ingredients, which may be less plentiful in the open market than conventional product ingredients. This competition may increase in the future due to increased consumer demand for natural and organic products, which could cause our expenses to increase and/or could limit the amount of products that we manufacture and sell.

The packaged food industry is dominated by multinational corporations with substantially greater resources and operations than us. We cannot be certain that we will successfully compete with larger competitors that have greater financial, sales, and technical resources. Conventional food companies may be able to use their resources and scale to respond to competitive pressures and changes in consumer preferences by introducing new products (including natural and organic kid and baby food), reducing prices, or increasing promotional activities, among other things. Our competitors may be more innovative and able to bring new products to market faster and may be quicker to exploit and serve niche markets. Retailers also market competitive products under their own private labels, which are generally sold at lower prices and compete with some of our products. As a result of competition, we may need to increase our marketing, advertising, and promotional spending, refrain from increasing prices, or decrease our prices to protect our existing market share, which may adversely impact our profitability. We may not have the financial resources to increase such spending when necessary.

Failure to introduce successful new products, successfully enter into new product categories, or successfully pursue growth by other means may adversely affect our ability to continue to grow.

One element of our growth strategy involves the development and marketing of new products that meet our standards for quality and appeal to consumer preferences. The success of our innovation and product development efforts is affected by our ability to anticipate changes in consumer preferences, the technical capability of our crew members in developing and testing product prototypes, our ability to comply with applicable governmental regulations, and the success of our management, sales, and marketing teams in introducing and marketing new products, including through current and new product categories. There can be no assurance that we will successfully develop and market new products or successfully introduce products in new categories. The development and introduction of new products requires substantial marketing expenditures, which we may be unable to recoup if the new products do not gain widespread market acceptance. If we introduce new or improved products that ultimately do not meet objectives for such products, it could impact our growth, sales, and profitability. Any failure to successfully develop, market, and launch future products or successfully enter into new product categories may lead to decreased growth, sales, and profitability. Further risks are presented if we elect to pursue continued growth or enter new product categories by

means other than new product introductions, including by acquisitions or investments in business or technologies that we believe could offer growth opportunities.

Our finished goods inventory is located in a limited number of warehouse facilities. Any damage or disruption at any one facility would have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

The majority of our finished goods inventory is located in a limited number of warehouse facilities owned and operated by third parties with whom we have entered into agreements in the ordinary course for the provision of these logistics and warehousing services. A natural disaster or other natural conditions (including global or local pandemics affecting our operating activities), fire, power interruption, work stoppage, or other unanticipated catastrophic event at even a single facility we rely on for our operations would significantly disrupt our ability to deliver our products and operate our business, particularly given the complexity of organic food logistics and the risk that such logistics may not scale effectively with the growth of our business. The impact of natural disasters within the areas in which our warehouse facilities are located is difficult to predict, given weather conditions and the potential of climate change to increase the frequency and intensity of such natural disasters. However, if any material amount of our inventory were damaged, we would be unable to fulfill orders for our products and, as a result, our business, financial condition, and results of operations would suffer.

Many of our customers are not obligated to continue purchasing products from us, and larger customers that have multiyear contracts with us may terminate these contracts early in certain situations or choose not to renew or extend these contracts at expiration.

Many of our customers buy from us under short-term, binding purchase orders. We cannot assure you that these customers will maintain or increase their orders for the products supplied by us, nor can we assure you that we will be able to maintain or add to our existing customer base. Decreases in our customers’ sales volumes or orders for products supplied by us may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

In addition, we may have contracts with certain of our customers that obligate the customer to buy products from us for a particular period of time. Even in this case, the contracts may not require the customer to purchase a minimum number of products from us or the contracts may afford the customer better pricing in the event that the volume of the customer’s purchases exceeds certain levels. If these customers were to terminate or fail to perform under these contracts prior to their scheduled termination, or if we or the customer elected not to renew or extend the term of the contract at its expiration or not to renew or extend at historical purchase levels, it may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations, including additional operational expenses to transition out of the business or to adjust our facilities and staffing costs to cover the reduction in net sales.

If our growth strategy related to the deployment of coolers proves to be unsuccessful, or the operating capacity or reputation of such coolers is harmed, our business, financial condition, and results of operations may suffer.

Our network of coolers is an integral component of our business operations and growth strategy as we intend to amplify our in-store presence and expand our in-store footprint by continuing the execution of our national baby cooler deployment. If the execution of our national baby cooler deployment proves to be unsuccessful or our estimates related to the opportunity to expand our cooler footprint prove to be inaccurate, our business, financial condition, and results of operations will be adversely affected. In addition, if the operating capacity of our coolers is harmed by external factors, such as adverse weather or energy supply, or internal factors, such as faulty manufacturing or insufficient maintenance, our products contained in those fridges may be damaged and need to be discarded. In addition, if our coolers fail to operate as intended, for any reason, the reputation of our coolers with customers and the reputation of our brand with consumers may decline. In such event, customers may choose to discontinue, or not to expand, their use of coolers and our products and consumers may choose to forgo purchasing certain of our products. Any such harm to the operating capacity or reputation of our coolers could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our net sales and earnings may fluctuate as a result of price actions, promotional activities, and chargebacks.

Our retail customers may require price concessions that would negatively impact our margins and our profitability. Alternatively, we may increase our prices to offset commodity inflation which may potentially impact our margins and volume. In addition, we periodically offer sales incentives through various programs to customers and consumers, including rebates, temporary price reductions, off-invoice discounts, retailer advertisements, product coupons, and other trade activities. Additionally, while we continue to work to optimize supply chain logistics, we are occasionally charged fees and/or fines by our retail customers for various delivery and order discrepancies. While we challenge and vet these charges, we may be subject to such charges that could be detrimental to our performance, particularly when combined with the effects of increased freight costs or the other risks outlined in this section. The cost associated with promotions and chargebacks is estimated and recorded as a reduction in net sales. These price concessions, promotional activities, and chargebacks could adversely impact our net sales and changes in such activities could adversely impact period-over-period results. If we are not correct in predicting the performance of promotions, or if we are not correct in estimating chargebacks, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our sales and profits are dependent upon our ability to expand existing customer relationships and acquire new customers.

Our business depends on our ability to increase our household penetration, to expand the number of products sold through existing retail customers, including both e-commerce retailers and large-format retailers, and DTC sales, to grow within the foodservice channel and to strengthen our product offerings through innovation in both new and existing categories. Any strategies we employ to pursue this growth are subject to numerous factors outside of our control. For example, retailers (which may include certain of our largest customers) continue to aggressively market their private label products, which could reduce demand for our products. The expansion of our business also depends on our ability over the long term to obtain customers in additional distribution channels and on our ability to successfully expand our consumer demographics from babies and young kids to older kids and families in general. Any growth in distribution channels may also affect our existing customer relationships and present additional challenges, including related to pricing strategies. Additionally, we may need to increase or reallocate spending on marketing and promotional activities, such as rebates, temporary price reductions, off-invoice discounts, retailer advertisements, product coupons, and other trade activities, and these expenditures are subject to risks, including related to consumer acceptance of our efforts. Our failure to obtain new customers, or expand our business with existing customers, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

We estimate market opportunity and forecast market growth that may prove to be inaccurate, and even if the market in which we compete achieves the forecasted growth, our business could fail to grow at similar rates, if at all.

Our estimates of market opportunity and growth forecasts included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are subject to significant uncertainty and are based on assumptions and estimates that may not prove to be accurate, particularly in light of economic uncertainties. We estimate our market size based, in part, upon forecasts and information obtained from independent trade associations, industry publications, surveys and other independent sources, proprietary research studies, and management’s knowledge of the industry. While these estimates are made in good faith and are based on assumptions and estimates we believe to be reasonable, they may not be accurate. The variables that go into the calculation of our market opportunity are subject to change over time, and there is no guarantee that any particular number or percentage of customers covered by our market opportunity estimates will purchase our products at all or generate any particular level of revenue for us. Any expansion in our market depends on a number of factors, including the cost and perceived value associated with our products and those of our competitors. Even if the market in which we compete meets the size estimates and growth forecast, our business could fail to grow at the rate we anticipate, if at all. Our growth is subject to many factors, including our success in implementing our business strategy, which is subject to many risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, our forecasts of market growth should not be taken as indicative of our future growth.

We expect to need capital in the future for business development, and we may not be able to generate sufficient cash flow or raise capital on acceptable terms to meet our needs.

Developing our business has in the past required and will continue in the future to require significant capital, including but not limited to securing and maintaining refrigerated shelf space and installing coolers in the various retail locations in which our products are sold. To meet our capital needs, we expect to continue to rely on our cash flow from operations and other third-party financing. Third-party financing in the future may not, however, be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. Our ability to obtain additional funding will be subject to various factors, including general economic and market conditions, our operating performance, the market’s perception of our growth potential, lender sentiment, and our ability to incur additional debt in compliance with our contractual restrictions. Additionally, our ability to make payments on and to refinance any indebtedness and to fund planned expenditures for our growth and operational efficiency plans will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future. If our business does not achieve the levels of profitability or generate the amount of cash that we anticipate or if we expand faster than anticipated, we may need to seek additional debt or equity financing to operate and expand our business. From time to time, we may seek to raise additional capital by accessing the debt and/or equity markets to fund capital expenditures or otherwise. We cannot assure you that our business will generate cash flow from operations in an amount sufficient to enable us to fund our liquidity needs. Further, our capital requirements may vary materially from those currently planned if, for example, our revenues do not reach expected levels, or we have to incur unforeseen capital expenditures and make investments, including with respect to refrigerator shelf space and costs associated with obtaining and installing coolers, to maintain our competitive position. If this is the case, we may seek alternative financing, such as selling additional debt or equity securities, and we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so on favorable terms, if at all.

Our manufacturing capacity and expansion plans could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Due to our reliance on the limited manufacturing capacity of our co-manufacturers and our continued growth, we may in the future continue expanding our manufacturing capacity via organic growth, partnerships with new co-manufacturers, operational efficiency increases, or other means. If our growth exceeds our expectations, we may not be able to increase our own manufacturing capacity via our existing co-manufacturing arrangements or obtain additional contract manufacturing capacity at a level that meets demand for our products, which could prevent us from meeting increased customer demand and harm our business. If we overestimate our demand and overbuild our capacity, we may have significantly underutilized assets, and we may experience reduced margins. If we do not accurately align our manufacturing capabilities with demand, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

A failure of our enterprise resource planning system or deficient information sharing capabilities could impact our ability to operate our business, and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Our business utilizes an enterprise resource planning system to provide for greater depth and breadth of functionality and effectively manage our data, communications, supply chain, order entry and fulfillment, inventory and warehouse management, and other business processes. A failure of the system to perform as we anticipate may result in transaction errors, processing and operational inefficiencies and the loss of sales, or may otherwise disrupt our operations and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations and may harm our ability to accurately forecast demand, manage our complex supply chain, fulfill customer orders, and report financial and management information on a timely and accurate basis. In addition, deficient information sharing capabilities may affect our ability to communicate with and transmit accurate information to our customers, employees, suppliers, and others, which could materially harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations, particularly as our business continues to grow in size and complexity.

Our operating results depend, in part, on the sufficiency and effectiveness of our marketing and trade spending programs.

In general, due to the highly competitive nature of the kid and baby food business in which we compete, we must execute effective and efficient marketing investments and trade spending programs with respect to our business overall to sustain our competitive position in our markets. Marketing investments may be costly. Additionally, we may, from time to time, change our marketing and trade spending strategies, including the timing, amount, or nature of television advertising and related promotional programs. The sufficiency and effectiveness of our marketing and trade spending practices is important to our ability to retain or improve our market share or margins. However, although we may incur significant expenses in connection with our marketing strategy, we may not generate our anticipated return on investment. If our marketing and trade spending programs are not successful or if we fail to implement sufficient and effective marketing and trade spending programs, our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be adversely affected.

If we fail to develop and maintain our brand, or the quality of our products that customers have come to expect, our business could suffer.

We believe that developing and maintaining our brand and the quality of our products is critical to our success. The importance of our brand recognition and the quality of our products may become even greater as competitors offer more products similar to ours. Our financial success is directly dependent on consumer perception of our brand and our products. Our brand-building activities involve providing high-quality products, increasing awareness of our brand, creating and maintaining brand loyalty, and increasing the availability of our products. The success of our brand may suffer if our marketing plans or product initiatives do not have the desired impact on our brand’s image or its ability to attract customers. Further, our brand value could diminish significantly due to a number of factors, including consumer perception that we or our management team have acted in an irresponsible manner, adverse publicity about our products or management team (whether or not valid), our actual or perceived failure to maintain the quality of our products, product contamination (whether alleged or proved), the failure of our products to deliver consistently positive consumer experiences, or the products becoming unavailable to consumers. The growing use of social and digital media by consumers increases the speed and extent that information and opinions can be shared. Negative posts or comments about us or our brand or products on social or digital media could damage our brand and reputation. If we fail to maintain the favorable perception of our brand, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be negatively impacted.

If we cannot maintain our Company culture or focus on our purpose as we grow, our business and competitive position may be harmed.

We believe our culture and our purpose have been key contributors to our success to date. Any failure to preserve our culture or focus on our purpose to drive systemic improvement in childhood nutrition could negatively affect our ability to retain and recruit personnel, which is critical to our growth, and to effectively focus on and pursue our corporate objectives. As we continue to grow and develop the infrastructure of a public company, we may find it difficult to maintain these important values. We may also have difficulty maintaining our Company culture as

substantially all of our employees are working remotely on a permanent basis. If we fail to maintain our Company culture or focus on our purpose, our business and competitive position may be harmed.

Fluctuations in our business due to changes in our promotional activities and seasonality may have an adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We offer a variety of sales and promotion incentives to our customers and to consumers, such as price discounts, consumer coupons, volume rebates, cooperative marketing programs, slotting fees, and in-store displays. Our net sales are periodically influenced by the efficiency of our trade programs, as well as the introduction and discontinuance of sales and promotion incentives. Reductions in overall sales and promotion incentives could impact our net sales and affect our results of operations in any particular fiscal quarter. In addition, we have experienced and expect to continue to experience fluctuations in our quarterly results of operations due to the seasonal nature of our business. Historically, we have experienced greater net sales growth in the first and third fiscal quarters compared to the second and fourth fiscal quarters, driven by dairy category resets in the first fiscal quarter and promotional activities around the back-to-school period in the third fiscal quarter. As a result, inventory levels and working capital requirements typically increase in the second and fourth fiscal quarters to support the anticipated increased sales volume in the other two fiscal quarters.

Seasonality could cause our results of operations for an interim financial period to fluctuate and not be indicative of our full year results. Seasonality also impacts relative revenue and profitability of each quarter of the year, both on a quarter-to-quarter and year-over-year basis. If we fail to effectively manage our inventories, fluctuations in business as a result of promotional activities and seasonality may have an adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Historical quarter-to-quarter and period-over-period comparisons of our sales and operating results are not necessarily indicative of future quarter-to-quarter and period-over-period results. Investors should not rely on the results of a single fiscal quarter or period as an indication of our annual results or our future performance.

We may not be able to successfully implement initiatives to improve productivity and streamline operations to control or reduce costs. Failure to implement such initiatives could adversely affect our results of operations.

Because our ability to effectively implement price increases for our products can be affected by factors outside of our control, our profitability and growth depend significantly on our efforts to control our operating costs. Because many of our costs, such as energy, transportation and other logistics costs, packaging costs, and ingredient, commodity, and raw product costs, are affected by factors outside or substantially outside our control, we generally must seek to control or reduce costs through operating efficiency or other initiatives. If we are not able to identify and complete initiatives designed to control or reduce costs and increase operating efficiency on time or within budget, our results of operations could be adversely impacted. In addition, if the cost savings initiatives we have implemented to date, or any future cost-savings initiatives, do not generate expected cost savings, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected.

We may be subject to significant liability that is not covered by insurance.

Any claim under our insurance policies may be subject to certain exceptions, may not be honored fully, in a timely manner, or at all, and we may not have purchased sufficient insurance to cover all losses incurred. If we were to incur substantial liabilities or if our business operations were interrupted for a substantial period of time, we could incur costs and suffer losses. Such inventory and business interruption losses may not be covered by our insurance policies. Any significant uninsured liability may require us to pay substantial amounts, which would adversely affect our cash position and results of operations. Additionally, in the future, insurance coverage may not be available to us at commercially acceptable premiums, or at all.

Mergers or other strategic transactions by competitors or retailers could weaken our competitive position and adversely affect our business.

If one or more competitors or retailers were to merge, acquire or partner with another competitor or retailer, the change in the competitive landscape could adversely affect our ability to compete effectively. For example, Nature’s Path

Organic Foods acquired Love Child Organics in 2023, both of which are competitors. Consolidation amongst major retail customers could impact contractual negotiations with such retail customers, result in lower prioritization of our products, or ultimately lead to termination or nonrenewal of existing retailer contracts. In addition, our competitors may establish or strengthen cooperative relationships with current or future retailers and other parties with whom we have relationships, which could limit our ability to promote our products to those retailers and reduce our number of customers. As a result of these and future potential acquisitions, current and future retailers may begin working more closely, or on an exclusive basis, with other competitors with whom they have combined or otherwise established new relationships. Disruptions in our business caused by these events could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Future offerings of debt securities, which would rank senior to our common stock upon our bankruptcy or liquidation, and future offerings of equity securities, which may be senior to our common stock for the purposes of dividend and liquidating distributions, may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

In the future, we may attempt to increase our capital resources by making offerings of debt securities or equity securities. Upon bankruptcy or liquidation, holders of our debt securities and shares of preferred stock and lenders with respect to other borrowings would receive a distribution of our available assets prior to the holders of our common stock. Equity offerings may dilute the holdings of our existing stockholders or reduce the market price of our common stock, or both, and may result in future Section 382 limitations that could reduce the rate at which we utilize our federal and state net operating loss carryforwards. Preferred stock, if issued, could have a preference on liquidating distributions or a preference on dividend payments or both that could limit our ability to make a dividend distribution to the holders of our common stock. Our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control. As a result, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing, or nature of our future offerings, and current stockholders bear the risk of our future offerings reducing the market price of our common stock and diluting their ownership interest in our Company.

Impairment charges for long-lived assets could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We monitor the recoverability of our long-lived assets, such as buildings, equipment, and leased assets, and evaluate their carrying value for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be fully recoverable. If the review performed indicates that impairment has occurred, we are required to record a non-cash impairment charge for the difference between the carrying value and fair value of the long-lived assets, in the period the determination is made. The testing of long-lived assets and goodwill for impairment requires us to make estimates that are subject to significant assumptions about our future revenue, profitability, cash flows, fair value of assets, liabilities, and weighted average cost of capital, as well as other assumptions. Changes in these estimates, or changes in actual performance compared with these estimates, may affect the fair value of long-lived assets, which may result in an impairment charge. We cannot accurately predict the amount or timing of any impairment. Should the value of long-lived assets become impaired, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

We have a history of losses, and we cannot be certain that we will achieve or sustain profitability.

We have a history of losses. We experienced net losses of $17.2 million, $23.8 million and $17.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. It is possible that we may continue to incur operating losses in the future as a result of expenses associated with the continued development and expansion of our business, including additional expenses incurred as a result of becoming a public company. Any failure to increase net sales or manage our cost structure as we implement initiatives to grow our business could prevent us from sustaining profitability. In addition, our ability to achieve sustained profitability is subject to a number of the risks and uncertainties discussed herein, many of which are beyond our control. We cannot be certain that we will be able to sustain profitability on a quarterly or annual basis.

If we expand our growth strategy and pursue acquisitions or other strategic transactions, we may not be able to successfully consummate favorable transactions or successfully integrate acquired businesses.

As our growth strategy evolves, we may choose to evaluate potential acquisitions or other strategic transactions. Evaluating potential transactions, including acquisitions and joint ventures, requires additional expenditures (including legal, accounting, and due diligence expenses, higher administrative costs to support the acquired entities and information technology, personnel, and other integration expenses) and may divert the attention of our management from day-to-day operating matters. Companies or operations we acquire or joint ventures we enter into may not be profitable or may not achieve the anticipated profitability that justify our investments. With respect to acquisitions, we may not be able to identify suitable candidates, consummate a transaction on terms that are favorable to us, or achieve expected returns and other benefits as a result of integration challenges. The successful integration of acquisitions is complex and potential difficulties we may encounter as part of any integration process include, but are not limited to, the following: employees may voluntarily or involuntarily separate from employment with us or the acquired businesses because of the acquisitions; our management may have its attention diverted while trying to integrate the acquired businesses; we may encounter obstacles when incorporating the acquired businesses into our operations and management; we may be required to recognize impairment charges; and integration may be more costly or more time consuming and complex or less effective than anticipated. Our corporate development activities may present financial and operational risks and may have adverse effects on existing business relationships with suppliers and customers. Future acquisitions also could result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities, and depreciation and amortization expenses related to certain tangible and intangible assets and increased operating expenses, all of which could, individually or collectively, adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Risks Relating to Litigation and Regulation

We are subject to significant governmental regulation and failure to comply with such regulations may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our business is highly regulated at the federal, state, and local levels, and our products and distribution operations require various licenses, permits, and approvals. Given the nature of our business, the laws and regulations that we are required to comply with are constantly evolving and placing additional restrictions on the way we operate our business and produce our products. The products that we distribute in the United States are subject to inspection by the USDA. Our warehouse and distribution centers are subject to inspection by the USDA, the United States Department of Labor Occupational and Health Administration, the Environmental Protection Agency, and various state health and workplace safety authorities. Our United States transportation operations are subject to regulation by the United States Department of Transportation and the United States Federal Highway Administration. In addition, the various federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and administrative practices to which we are subject require us to comply with numerous provisions regulating areas such as environmental, health and sanitation standards, food safety, marketing of natural or organically produced food, facilities, pharmacies, equal employment opportunity, public accessibility, employee benefits, wages and hours worked, and licensing for the sale of food, among others. For example:

Environmental, Health and Safety: Our operations are subject to extensive and increasingly stringent laws and regulations pertaining to the protection of the environment, including those relating to the discharge of materials into the environment, the disposal of food by-products, the handling, treatment, and disposal of wastes, maintenance of refrigeration systems, and remediation of soil and groundwater contamination. Compliance with existing or changing environmental and safety requirements, including more stringent limitations imposed or expected to be imposed in any recently renewed or soon-to-be renewed environmental permits, may require capital expenditures. Additionally, concern over climate change, including the impact of global warming, has led to significant United States and international legislative and regulatory efforts to limit greenhouse gas emissions. Increased regulation regarding greenhouse gas emissions, particularly with respect to diesel engine emissions, could result in substantial additional operating expenses. These expenses may include an increase in the cost of the fuel and other energy we purchase, and capital costs associated with updating or replacing our vehicles sooner than planned. Until the timing, scope and extent of such regulation becomes known, we cannot predict its effect on our results of operations. It is reasonably possible, however, that it could result in material costs, which we may be unable to pass on to our customers. Further, our business may be subject to climate-related transition risks, which arise from society’s transition toward a low-carbon economy due to changes in laws or regulations, technological advancements, and investor and consumer sentiment.

While many of our initiatives will create efficiencies and return on investment, the transition to a low-carbon economy generally and our own efforts to reduce emissions could lead to increased costs to transition to or invest in renewable energy sources, including electric vehicles, increased compliance costs, including tracking and reporting systems, and increased costs of products, commodities, and energy. Further, if our tracking and reporting systems are incomplete or inaccurate, or if we fail to achieve progress with respect to our goals on a timely basis, or at all, our reputation, business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely impacted.

Food Safety and Marketing: There is significant governmental scrutiny, regulations, and public awareness regarding food quality and food and drug safety. We may be adversely affected if consumers lose confidence in the safety and quality of the food we manufacture or the food and drug products we distribute. In addition, we are subject to governmental scrutiny of and public awareness regarding food safety and the sale, packaging, and marketing of natural and organic products. Compliance with these laws may impose a significant burden on our operations. As a baby food company, we are also subject to Assembly Bill 899 in California, which requires manufacturers of baby food to (i) test and disclose the levels of four toxic elements (arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury) that may be present in baby food and (ii) meet particular labeling requirements. In addition, “Proposition 65, the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986,” in California exposes all food companies to the possibility of having to provide warnings on their products in that state. If we were required to add warning labels to any of our products or place warnings in locations where our products are sold in order to comply with Proposition 65, the sales of those products and other products of our Company could suffer, not only in those locations but elsewhere. Additionally, in 2022, California enacted the Plastic Pollution Prevention and Packaging Producer Responsibility Act, which, among other things, requires a 25% reduction of plastics in single-use products in the state by 2032 and escalates recycling, reuse, and composting rates for single-use packaging, regardless of material, used in the state over time. Numerous other U.S. municipalities and states and certain other countries, including Canada, have also proposed or enacted legislation prohibiting or restricting the sale and use of certain foodservice products and requiring them to be replaced with recyclable or compostable alternatives. Several provinces in Canada, as well as states in the United States, have enacted legislation imposing fees or other costs on manufacturers and other suppliers of single-use packaging and foodservice products to encourage and fund recycling of those products. Any such legislation, as well as voluntary initiatives similarly aimed at reducing the level of single-use packaging waste, could reduce demand for our products and/or increase the costs of producing our products.

Wage Rates and Paid Leave: Changes in federal, state, or local minimum wage and overtime laws or employee paid leave laws could cause us to incur additional wage costs, which could adversely affect our operating margins. Failure to comply with existing or new laws or regulations could result in significant damages, penalties and/or litigation costs.

Payment Card Transactions: As a merchant that accepts debit and credit cards for payment, we are subject to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (“PCI DSS”), issued by the PCI Council. Additionally, we are subject to PCI DSS as a service provider, which is a business entity that is not a payment brand directly involved in the processing, storage, or transmission of cardholder data. PCI DSS contains compliance guidelines and standards with regard to our security surrounding the physical and electronic storage, processing, and transmission of individual cardholder data. By accepting debit cards for payment, we are also subject to compliance with American National Standards Institute data encryption standards and payment network security operating guidelines. The cost of complying with stricter privacy and information security laws, standards, and guidelines, including evolving PCI DSS standards, and developing, maintaining, and upgrading technology systems to address future advances in technology, could be significant and we could experience problems and interruptions associated with the implementation of new or upgraded systems and technology or with maintenance or adequate support of existing systems. Failure to comply with such laws, standards, and guidelines or payment card industry standards such as those involving MasterCard, Visa and Europay (EMV) transactions, could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Foreign Operations: Our supplier base includes both domestic and foreign suppliers. In particular, we source many of the key ingredients that we use in our products from South and Central America and Mexico. In addition, we have customers located outside the United States. Accordingly, laws and regulations affecting the importation and taxation of goods, including duties, tariffs, and quotas or changes in the enforcement of those laws and regulations could adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we are required to comply with laws

and regulations governing export controls, and ethical, anti-bribery, and similar business practices such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

Privacy and Related Laws: We are subject to a variety of federal, state, and foreign laws and industry standards that relate to data privacy, data security, and consumer marketing. The legal and regulatory framework for these topics is rapidly evolving and may require increased monitoring and compliance costs and result in increased legal and financial exposure if we fail to remain compliant, or are alleged to be noncompliant, with such laws.

AI Technologies: There are many evolving laws, regulations, and standards regarding the development and use of AI technologies. New laws, regulations, or industry standards governing AI use could require us to modify our practices regarding AI use, increase our operating costs, or restrict our ability to use certain AI technologies in our operations in order to remain compliant with such regulations or standards.

Climate Change: Changing rules, public disclosure regulations, and stakeholder expectations related to climate change have resulted in, and may continue to result in, increased management time and attention spent complying with or meeting such regulations and expectations.

The failure to comply or maintain compliance with applicable governmental laws and regulations, including those referred to above and in “Business,” could result in, among other things, administrative, civil, or criminal penalties or fines (including in connection with class action lawsuits); mandatory or voluntary product recalls; warning or other letters; cease and desist orders against operations that are not in compliance; closure of facilities or operations; the loss, revocation or modification of any existing licenses, permits, registrations or approvals; the failure to obtain additional licenses, permits, registrations, or approvals in new jurisdictions where we intend to do business; or the loss of our ability to participate in federal and state healthcare programs, any of which could make it more costly or challenging to manufacture and sell our products or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations. These laws and regulations may change in the future. We cannot predict the nature of future laws, regulations, interpretations, or applications, nor can we determine the effect that additional governmental regulations or administrative orders, when and if promulgated, or disparate federal, state, and local regulatory schemes would have on our future business. We may incur material costs in our efforts to comply with current or future laws and regulations. In addition, if we fail to comply with applicable laws and regulations or encounter disagreements with respect to our contracts subject to governmental regulations, including those referred to above, we may be subject to investigations, criminal sanctions, or civil remedies, including fines, injunctions, prohibitions on exporting, seizures, or debarments from contracting with local and foreign governments. The cost of compliance or the consequences of non-compliance, including debarments, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations. In addition, governmental units may make changes in the regulatory frameworks within which we operate that may require us to incur substantial increases in costs in order to comply with such laws and regulations.

If any partners in our network of farms, suppliers (including co-packers), or co-manufacturers fail to comply with food safety, environmental, health and safety, or other laws and regulations, or face allegations of non-compliance, their operations may be disrupted, and our reputation could be harmed. The farms, co-packers, and co-manufacturers are required to maintain the quality of our products and to comply with our own standards and specifications. In the event of actual or alleged non-compliance, we might be forced to find alternative farms, suppliers, or co-manufacturers and we may be subject to lawsuits and/or regulatory enforcement actions related to such non-compliance by the farms, suppliers, and co-manufacturers. As a result, our supply of raw materials or finished inventory could be disrupted or our costs could increase, which would adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The failure of any partner farmer, co-packer, or co-manufacturer to produce products that conform to our standards could adversely affect our reputation in the marketplace and result in product recalls, product liability claims, government, or third-party actions and economic loss. Additionally, actions we may take to mitigate the impact of any disruption or potential disruption in our supply of raw materials or finished inventory, including increasing inventory in anticipation of a potential supply or production interruption, may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Changes in existing laws or regulations, or the adoption of new laws or regulations, may increase our costs and otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

The manufacture and marketing of food products is highly regulated. We, our farmer partners, our suppliers (including co-packers), and our co-manufacturers are subject to a variety of laws and regulations. These laws and regulations apply to many aspects of our business, including the manufacturing, packaging, labeling, distribution, advertising, sale, quality, and safety of our products, as well as the health and safety of our crew members and the protection of the environment. In the United States, we are subject to regulation by various government agencies, including the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”), the USDA, the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”), the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and the Environmental Protection Agency, as well as various state and local agencies. We are also regulated outside the United States by various international regulatory bodies, including Health Canada. These regulatory agencies and bodies regularly propose rules and issue guidance, some of which are or may be relevant to our business. For example, on January 16, 2025, the FDA proposed a rule (90 Fed. Reg. 5426), which, if finalized, would require a front-of-package nutrition information box on most packaged foods to assist consumers in more easily identifying healthy foods. In addition to compliance costs associated with understanding the requirements and updating product labeling or reformulating our products, implementing this rule may negatively impact consumer perception of our products and our reputation, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we are subject to certain standards, such as GFSI standards and review by voluntary organizations, such as the Council of Better Business Bureaus’ National Advertising Division. We could incur costs, including fines, penalties, and third-party claims, because of any violations of, or liabilities under, such requirements, including any competitor or consumer challenges relating to compliance with such requirements. For example, in connection with the marketing and advertisement of our products, we could be the target of claims relating to false or deceptive advertising, including under the auspices of the FTC and the consumer protection statutes of some states.

The regulatory environment in which we operate could change significantly and adversely in the future, particularly in light of the rapidly evolving focus on public health and food regulation by the U.S. presidential administration. For example, the U.S. presidential administration’s “Make America Healthy Again” movement may have a significant impact on the food regulatory landscape and may result in the implementation of certain food regulation changes that could be adverse to our business. If we fail to anticipate or adapt to new rules governing food manufacturing, labeling, or packaging, it may lead to an increase in costs or interruptions in production, either of which could adversely affect our operations and financial condition. Changes in marketing or labeling requirements or standards related to our products could require us to revise or discontinue making certain claims or utilizing certain branding elements, which may make our products less appealing to consumers. New or revised government laws and regulations could result in additional compliance costs and, in the event of non-compliance, civil remedies, including fines, injunctions, withdrawals, recalls or seizures, and confiscations, as well as potential criminal sanctions, any of which may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

From time to time, we may be subject to litigation, government investigations, or governmental proceedings, which may adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition.

From time to time, we have been and may continue to be involved in various legal, regulatory, or administrative investigations, negotiations, or proceedings arising in the normal course of business, including class action lawsuits. For instance, we have been named in a putative nationwide class action lawsuit by plaintiffs alleging that our Wild Rumpus Avocado pouch (which is a blend of organic pineapple, banana, apple, avocado and mint) should be described solely as a “Fruit Blend” rather than a “Fruit & Veggie Blend.” In the event of litigation, government investigations, or governmental proceedings, we are subject to the inherent risks and uncertainties that may result if outcomes differ from our expectations. In the event of adverse outcomes in any litigation, investigation, or governmental proceeding, we could be required to pay substantial damages, fines, or penalties and cease certain practices or activities, which could materially harm our business. For example, as an employer, we have been and may continue to be subject to various employment-related claims, such as individual or class actions or government enforcement actions relating to alleged employment discrimination, employee classification and related withholding, wage-hour, labor standards, or healthcare and benefit issues. Such actions, if successful in whole or in part, may affect our ability to compete and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Risks Relating to Intellectual Property and Information Technology

We may be unable to adequately protect our intellectual property rights, which could harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We rely on a combination of trademark, service mark, trade secret, copyright and domain name rights, and related laws and internal procedures and nondisclosure agreements to protect our intellectual property. We believe our trademarks, trade secrets (including certain food product recipes and formulas), and domain names are valuable assets. However, our intellectual property rights may not be sufficient to distinguish our products from those of our competitors or to provide us with a competitive advantage, and may not allow us to prevent others from operating under similar names or offering similar food products in the same field or in similar fields. From time to time, third parties may use names, logos, and slogans similar to ours, may apply to register trademarks or domain names similar to ours, and may infringe or otherwise violate our intellectual property rights. Our intellectual property rights may not be successfully asserted against such third parties or may be invalidated, circumvented, or challenged. Asserting or defending our intellectual property rights could be time consuming and costly and could distract management’s attention and resources, and such efforts may be unsuccessful. If we are unable to prevent our competitors from using names, logos, slogans, and domain names similar to ours, consumer confusion could result, the perception of our brand and products could be negatively affected, and our sales and profitability could suffer as a result. In addition, if our wholesale customers receive negative publicity or fail to maintain the quality of the goods and services used in connection with our trademarks, our rights to and the value of, our trademarks could be harmed. Failure to protect our trade secrets and other proprietary information could also have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. We may also be subject to claims that our activities or the products we sell infringe, misappropriate, or otherwise violate the intellectual property rights of others. Any such claims are typically time consuming and costly to defend and may distract management’s attention and resources, even if the claims are without merit, and may prevent us from using our trademarks or selling our products in certain geographies, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our business operations could be disrupted, and our business, reputation, financial condition, and results of operations could be harmed, if our information technology systems (or those of our third-party service providers), including artificial intelligence technologies, fail to perform adequately and accurately, or if we are unable to integrate new information technology systems to maintain and grow our competitive position.

The efficient operation of our business including management of our business data, communications, supply chain, order entry and fulfillment, and other business processes, depends on the availability and adequate performance of our information technology systems, some of which are managed by third-party service providers. The failure of our information technology systems or third-party service providers to perform as we anticipate could disrupt our business and could result in transaction errors, processing inefficiencies, and the loss of sales and customers, impacts to working capital, causing our business, reputation, financial condition, and results of operations to suffer. For example, we depend on certain third-party service providers to process and manage online orders through our website. Third-party service providers may fail to deliver a rewarding customer experience on our website or implement features that incidentally affect the functionality of our website. For instance, third-party service providers may incorrectly process customer orders, cause error messages to appear at checkout, or cancel customer orders in error. Any such incident may harm our reputation and results of operations. In addition, our information technology systems and third-party service providers may be vulnerable to damage or interruption from circumstances beyond our control, including fire, natural disasters, power outages, systems failures, security breaches, physical theft or vandalism, cyber attacks, and viruses, which could cause website slowdown or unavailability, delays, or errors in processing customer orders or loss of data. Any such damage or interruption could have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation, financial condition, and results of operations.

Furthermore, to maintain and grow our competitive position, we use and integrate AI technologies in connection with our business processes and operations, and intend to increase this use over time. Rapid changes in AI technology may require us to make significant ongoing investments to maintain and upgrade our technological capabilities. We may be unsuccessful in implementing these developments in a timely or cost-effective manner, or at all, and the AI technologies in which we invest may be less effective than expected, or become unavailable to us on favorable terms, or at all.

Our use of AI technologies, particularly generative AI technologies, carries certain risks, including, regarding the accuracy and quality of AI outputs, which may be inaccurate, biased, or otherwise inappropriate for our business’ or our customers’ needs, and, in turn, could adversely impact our business and reputation. Our use of AI, particularly generative AI, may create legal and financial exposure, including for claims and liabilities associated with AI outputs that may be alleged to infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties. Furthermore, where our confidential or other sensitive information is processed by a third-party AI provider, this could put the confidentiality of such information at risk, including if such third-party AI provider breaches its contractual obligations to us, suffers cyber-attacks, or intentionally or inadvertently misuses our confidential information. In such an instance, it is possible that our confidential or other sensitive information could become available to third parties, including our competitors. We or our employees may use AI technologies, inadvertently or otherwise, in a manner that puts our confidential information or intellectual property rights at risk. Any of the foregoing risks may result in customer dissatisfaction, diversion of management’s attention and resources, and may harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Risks Relating to Tax

Changes in tax laws may impact our future financial position and results of operation.

The United States has recently enacted significant changes to U.S. tax law. We are continuing to review the impact of this legislation. Additionally, new income, sales, use, or other tax laws, statutes, rules, regulations, or ordinances could be enacted at any time, or interpreted, changed, modified, or applied adversely to us, any of which could adversely affect our business operations and financial performance. In particular, presidential and congressional elections in the United States could result in significant changes in, and uncertainty with respect to, tax legislation, regulation, and government policy directly affecting our business or indirectly affecting us because of impacts on our customers, suppliers, and manufacturers. For example, the U.S. government may enact significant changes to the taxation of business entities including, among others, a permanent increase in the corporate income tax rate and the imposition of minimum taxes or surtaxes on certain types of income. The likelihood of these changes being enacted or implemented is unclear. We are currently unable to predict whether such changes will occur and, if so, the ultimate impact on our business. To the extent that such changes have a negative impact on us, our suppliers, manufacturers, or our customers, including as a result of related uncertainty, these changes may adversely impact our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Our ability to use net operating losses and other tax attributes to offset future taxable income may be subject to certain limitations.

Our U.S. federal and state net operating loss (“NOLs”) carryforwards and certain other tax credits may be subject to limitations under Section 382 and Section 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), respectively, and similar provisions of state law. Under those sections of the Code, a corporation that undergoes an “ownership change,” generally defined as a greater than 50% change (by value) in its equity ownership over a three-year period, is subject to limitations on its ability to utilize its pre-change NOLs and other pre-change tax attributes, such as research tax credits, to offset future taxable income or taxes. Our existing NOLs may be subject to limitations arising from previous ownership changes, and if we undergo an ownership change in the future, our ability to utilize NOLs and other tax attributes could be further limited by Sections 382 and 383 of the Code. In addition, future changes in our stock ownership, many of which are outside of our control, could result in an ownership change under Sections 382 and 383 of the Code. “Ownership changes” that have occurred in the past or that may occur in the future, could result in the imposition of an annual limit on the amount of pre-ownership change NOLs and other tax attributes we can use to reduce taxable income, potentially increasing and accelerating our liability for income taxes, and also potentially causing those tax attributes to expire unused.

Risks Relating to Our Indebtedness

Our indebtedness could materially adversely affect our financial condition.

As of December 31, 2025, our total indebtedness was $60.2 million, including $17.2 million under our Convertible Notes and $43.0 million under our Revolving Credit Facility. Our Convertible Notes converted into common stock in connection with our IPO in February 2026, and we repaid all amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility with a portion of the proceeds from our IPO. Our Revolving Credit Facility provides for availability of up to $65.0

million of borrowings and our Term Loan Facility for availability of up to $30.0 million. From time to time, we may draw amounts under our Revolving Credit Facility and our Term Loan Facility.

Our indebtedness under the Credit Agreement (as defined herein) could have important consequences to the holders of our common stock, including the following:

•

making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to our other debt;

•

limiting our ability to obtain additional financing to fund future working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, or other general corporate requirements;

•

requiring us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flows to debt service payments, thereby reducing the amount of cash flows available for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, and other general corporate purposes;

•

increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;

•

exposing us to the risk of increased interest rates as certain of our borrowings, including the unhedged portion of borrowings under the Credit Agreement, are at variable rates of interest;

•

limiting our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in the industry in which we compete;

•

placing us at a disadvantage compared to other, less leveraged competitors; and

•

increasing our cost of borrowing.

In addition, the Credit Agreement contains restrictive covenants that limit our ability to engage in activities that may be in our long-term best interest. Our failure to comply with those covenants could result in an event of default which, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of all our debt.

We, and certain of our future subsidiaries, may be able to incur significant additional indebtedness in the future. Although the Credit Agreement contains restrictions on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, these restrictions are subject to a number of qualifications and exceptions, and the additional indebtedness incurred in compliance with these restrictions could be substantial. These restrictions also will not prevent us from incurring obligations that do not constitute “indebtedness” under the Credit Agreement.

The Revolving Credit Facility will mature on September 10, 2028 (with an option to extend the maturity date to June 30, 2030 upon the achievement of certain milestones).

We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service all of our indebtedness and may be forced to take other actions to satisfy our obligations under our indebtedness, which may not be successful.

Our ability to make scheduled principal and interest payments on or refinance our debt obligations depends on our financial condition and operating performance and on other factors that are out of our control. We cannot be sure that our business will generate sufficient cash flows from operating activities, or that future borrowings will be available, to permit us to pay the principal and interest on our indebtedness.

If our cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to fund our debt service obligations, we could face substantial liquidity problems and could be forced to reduce or delay investments and capital expenditures or to dispose of material assets or operations, seek additional debt or equity capital, or restructure or refinance our indebtedness. We may not be able to effect any such alternative measures, if necessary, on commercially reasonable terms or at all and, even if successful, those alternative actions may not allow us to meet our scheduled debt service obligations.

Our variable rate indebtedness subjects us to interest rate risk, which could cause our debt service obligations to increase significantly.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are at a variable rate of interest and expose us to interest rate risk. If interest rates were to increase, our debt service obligations on the variable rate indebtedness would increase even though the

amount borrowed remained the same, and our net income and cash flows, including cash available for servicing our indebtedness, will correspondingly decrease.

A lowering or withdrawal of the ratings assigned to our debt by rating agencies may increase our future borrowing costs and reduce our access to capital.

Our debt currently has a non-investment grade rating, and any rating assigned could be lowered or withdrawn entirely by a rating agency if, in that rating agency’s judgment, future circumstances relating to the basis of the rating, such as adverse changes, so warrant. Any future lowering of our ratings would likely make it more difficult or expensive for us to obtain additional debt financing.

Risks Relating to Our Status as a Public Benefit Corporation

Our status as a public benefit corporation may not result in the benefits that we anticipate.

We have elected to be classified as a public benefit corporation under Delaware law. As a public benefit corporation, we are required to balance the financial interests of our stockholders with the best interests of those stakeholders materially affected by our conduct, including those affected by the specific benefit purposes set forth in our certificate of incorporation. In addition, there is no assurance that the expected positive impact from being a public benefit corporation will be realized. Accordingly, being a public benefit corporation and complying with our related obligations could negatively impact our ability to provide the highest possible return to our stockholders.

As a public benefit corporation, we are required to deliver a report to stockholders at least biennially on our overall public benefit performance and on our assessment of our success in achieving our specific public benefit purpose. If we are not timely or are unable to provide this report, or if the report is not viewed favorably by parties doing business with us or regulators or others reviewing our credentials, our reputation and status as a public benefit corporation may be harmed.

As a public benefit corporation, our focus on a specific public benefit purpose and producing a positive effect for society may negatively impact our financial performance.

Unlike traditional corporations, which have a fiduciary duty to focus exclusively on maximizing stockholder value, our directors have a fiduciary duty to consider not only the stockholders’ interests, but also our specific public benefit and the interests of other stakeholders affected by our actions. Therefore, we may take actions that we believe will be in the best interests of those stakeholders materially affected by our specific benefit purpose, even if those actions do not maximize our financial results. While we intend for this public benefit designation and obligation to provide an overall net benefit to us and our partners, it could instead cause us to make decisions and take actions without seeking to maximize the income generated from our business, and hence available for distribution to our stockholders. Our pursuit of longer-term or non-pecuniary benefits may not materialize within the timeframe we expect or at all and may have an immediate negative effect on any amounts available for distribution to our stockholders. Accordingly, being a public benefit corporation and complying with our related obligations could harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations, which in turn could cause our stock price to decline.

Additionally, as a public benefit corporation, we may be less attractive as a takeover target than a traditional company and, therefore, your ability to realize your investment through an acquisition may be limited. Public benefit corporations may also not be attractive targets for activists or hedge fund investors because new directors would still have to consider and give appropriate weight to the public benefit along with stockholder value, and stockholders can enforce this through derivative suits. Further, by requiring the boards of directors of public benefit corporations to consider additional constituencies other than stockholders, Delaware public benefit corporation law could potentially make it easier for a board to reject a hostile bid, even where the takeover would provide the greatest short-term financial yield to investors.

Our directors have a fiduciary duty to consider not only our stockholders’ interests, but also our specific public benefit and the interests of other stakeholders affected by our conduct. If a conflict between such interests arises, there is no guarantee such a conflict would be resolved in favor of our stockholders.

While directors of traditional corporations are required to make decisions they believe to be in the best interests of stockholders, directors of a public benefit corporation have a fiduciary duty to balance the stockholders’ pecuniary interests, the best interests of other stakeholders materially affected by the public benefit corporation’s conduct, and the public benefit corporation’s specific public benefit and the interests of other stakeholders affected by the public benefit corporation’s conduct. Under Delaware law, directors are shielded from liability for breach of these fiduciary obligations if they make informed and disinterested decisions that serve a rational purpose. Thus, our directors are not merely permitted, but obligated, to consider our specific public benefit and the interests of other stakeholders. In the event of a conflict between the financial interests of our stockholders and the interests of our specific public benefit or our other stakeholders, our directors are obligated to make informed and disinterested decisions that serve a rational purpose; thus, there is no guarantee that such a conflict would be resolved in favor of our stockholders’ financial interests. Accordingly, Delaware law and our public benefit corporation status could result in our board of directors making decisions that are less financially lucrative for our stockholders in the short- and/or long-term if the public benefit and other stakeholder considerations are significant, which could harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations, which in turn could cause our stock price to decline.

As a public benefit corporation, our duty to balance a variety of interests may result in actions that do not maximize stockholder value.

As a public benefit corporation, our board of directors has a duty to balance (i) the pecuniary interest of our stockholders; (ii) the best interests of those materially affected by our conduct; and (iii) specific public benefits identified in our certificate of incorporation. While we believe our public benefit designation and associated obligations will benefit our stockholders, in balancing these interests our board of directors may take actions that do not maximize stockholder value. Any benefits to stockholders resulting from our public benefit purposes may not materialize within the timeframe we expect or at all and may have negative effects. For example:

•

we may choose to revise our policies in ways that we believe will be beneficial to stakeholders other than our stockholders, including farmers, suppliers, crew members and communities, even though the changes may be costly;

•

we may take actions, such as investing in technology and quality control mechanisms that exceed the requirements of the USDA and the FDA, even though these actions may be more costly than other alternatives;

•

we may be influenced to pursue programs and services to demonstrate our commitment to the communities we serve in by providing organic, farm-fresh food for babies and kids even though there may be no immediate return to our stockholders; or

•

in responding to a possible proposal to acquire the Company, our board of directors may be influenced by the interests of stakeholders, including farmers, suppliers, crew members and communities, whose interests may be different from the interests of our stockholders.

We may be unable to fully realize the benefits we expect from actions taken to benefit our stakeholders, including farmers, suppliers, crew members, and communities, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations, which in turn could cause our stock price to decline.

As a public benefit corporation, we may be subject to increased derivative litigation concerning our duty to balance stockholder and public benefit interests, the occurrence of which may have an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Stockholders of a Delaware public benefit corporation (if they, individually or collectively, own at least 2% of its outstanding capital stock or shares having at least $2 million in market value (whichever is less)) are entitled to file a derivative lawsuit claiming that the corporation’s directors failed to balance stockholder and public benefit interests. This potential liability does not exist for traditional corporations. Therefore, we may be subject to the possibility of increased derivative litigation, which would require the attention of management and, as a result, may adversely impact

management’s ability to effectively execute our strategy. Any such derivative litigation may be costly and have an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Common Stock

The market price of our common stock may be volatile or may decline steeply or suddenly regardless of our operating performance. You may not be able to resell any shares of our common stock that you may own at or above the price at which you purchased them and may lose all or part of your investment.

Our common stock began trading on the NYSE on February 6, 2026. Therefore, there has only been a public market for our common stock for a short period of time. You may not be able to resell any shares of our common stock that you may own at or above the price at which you purchased such shares. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate or decline significantly in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:

•

actual or anticipated fluctuations in our revenues or other operating results;

•

variations between our actual operating results and the expectations of securities analysts, investors, and the financial community;

•

any forward-looking financial or operating information we may provide to the public or securities analysts, any changes in this information or our failure to meet expectations based on this information;

•

actions of securities analysts who initiate or maintain coverage of us, changes in financial estimates by any securities analysts who follow us or our failure to meet these estimates or the expectations of investors;

•

additional shares of common stock being sold into the market by us or our existing stockholders, or the anticipation of such sales, including if existing stockholders sell shares into the market when the applicable “lock-up” periods end;

•

announcements by us or our competitors of significant products or features, innovations, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, capital commitments, divestitures, or other dispositions;

•

loss of relationships with significant suppliers or other customers;

•

changes in operating performance and stock market valuations of companies in our industry, including our competitors;

•

difficulties in integrating any new acquisitions we may make;

•

loss of services from members of management or employees or difficulty in recruiting additional employees;

•

deterioration of economic conditions in the United States and reduction in demand for our products;

•

price and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market, including as a result of general economic trends;

•

lawsuits threatened or filed against us, or events that negatively impact our reputation; and

•

developments in new legislation and pending lawsuits or regulatory actions, including interim or final rulings by judicial or regulatory bodies.

In addition, extreme price and volume fluctuations in the stock markets have affected and continue to affect the stock prices of many companies. Often, their stock prices have fluctuated in ways unrelated or disproportionate to their operating performance. In the past, stockholders have filed securities class action litigation against companies following periods of market volatility. Such securities litigation, if instituted against us, could subject us to substantial costs, divert resources and the attention of management from our business and seriously harm our business.

An active trading market for our common stock may not be sustained.

Our common stock began trading on the NYSE on February 6, 2026. Therefore, there has only been a public market for our common stock for a short period of time. We cannot be certain that an active trading market for our common stock will be sustained. Furthermore, we cannot be certain that we will continue to satisfy the continued listing

standards of NYSE. If we fail to satisfy the continued listing standards, we could be de-listed, which would have a material adverse effect on the liquidity and price of our common stock.

Future sales of our common stock and other actions by existing stockholders could cause our stock price to decline.

If our existing stockholders, including employees, who have or obtain equity, sell, or indicate an intention to sell, substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market after the lock-up and legal restrictions on resale relating to our IPO expire, the trading price of our common stock could decline. As of March 6, 2026, we have an outstanding total of 41,881,392 shares of common stock. Of these shares, only the shares of common stock sold in our IPO are freely tradable without restrictions or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), except for any shares held by persons who are not our “affiliates” as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act and who have complied with the holding period requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

In connection with our IPO, subject to certain exceptions, we and all of our pre-IPO stockholders entered into agreements with the underwriters for the IPO under which we and they agreed not to dispose of any shares of common stock, any options or warrants to purchase any shares of common stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive shares of common stock during a period of 180 days following the pricing of our IPO, or August 4, 2026.

When the lock-up period in these agreements expires, we and our pre-IPO stockholders will be able to sell shares in the public market. In addition, the underwriters for the IPO may release all or some portion of the shares subject to the lock-up agreements prior to the expiration of the lock-up period. Sales of a substantial number of such shares, or the perception that such sales may occur, upon the expiration or early release of the securities subject to the lock-up agreements could cause the price of our common stock to decline or make it more difficult for you to sell your common stock at a time and price that you deem appropriate.

In addition, certain of our stockholders have demand and “piggyback” registration rights with respect to our common stock. See Part III, Item 13. “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Registration Rights Agreement” for a discussion of the shares of our common stock that may be sold into the public market in the future.

We currently do not intend to pay dividends on our common stock, and our indebtedness could limit our ability to pay dividends on our common stock.

We currently do not anticipate paying any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. In addition, the terms of our indebtedness limit our ability to pay dividends or make other distributions on, or to repurchase or redeem, shares of our capital stock. Consequently, your only opportunity to achieve a return on your investment in our Company will be if the market price of our common stock appreciates and you sell your shares at a profit. There is no guarantee that the price of our common stock will ever exceed the price that you may have paid to acquire any shares of our common stock that you may own. We cannot be sure that we will pay dividends in the future or continue to pay dividends if we do commence paying dividends.

If securities or industry analysts either do not publish research about us or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about us, our business, or our market, if they adversely change their recommendations regarding our common stock, or if our operating results do not meet their expectations or any financial guidance we may provide, the trading price or trading volume of our common stock could decline.

The trading market for our common stock will be influenced in part by the research and reports that securities or industry analysts may publish about us, our business, our market, or our competitors. If one or more of the analysts initiate research with an unfavorable rating or downgrade our common stock, provide a more favorable recommendation regarding our competitors, or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our common stock price would likely decline. If one or more analysts who may cover us were to cease coverage of us or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause the trading price or trading volume of our common stock to decline.

In addition, if we do not meet any financial guidance that we may provide to the public or if we do not meet expectations of securities analysts or investors, the trading price of our common stock could decline significantly. Our operating results may fluctuate significantly from period to period as a result of changes in a variety of factors affecting us or our industry, many of which are difficult to predict. As a result, we may experience challenges in forecasting our operating results for future periods.

Future issuances of our common stock could result in significant dilution to our stockholders, dilute the voting power of our common stock, and depress the market price of our common stock.

Future issuances of our common stock could result in dilution to existing holders of our common stock. Such issuances, or the perception that such issuances may occur, could depress the market price of our common stock. We may issue additional equity securities from time to time, including equity securities that could have rights senior to those of our common stock. As a result, current stockholders bear the risk that future issuances of equity securities may reduce the value of their shares and dilute their ownership interests. Also, as outstanding stock-based awards are issued or become vested, there will be further dilution to the holders of our common stock.

We incur increased costs and devote substantial management time as a result of operating as a public company.

As a public company, we incur significant legal, accounting, investor relations, and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. For example, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and are required to comply with the applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act as well as rules and regulations subsequently implemented by the SEC and NYSE, including the establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls and changes in corporate governance practices. The requirements of operating as a public company have increased our legal and financial compliance and investor relations costs and have made some activities more time consuming and costly. In addition, our management and other personnel are required to devote substantial time to these public company requirements. In particular, we expect to incur significant expenses and devote substantial management effort toward ensuring compliance with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which will increase when we are no longer an emerging growth company, as defined by the JOBS Act. We have also established an investor relations function that utilizes additional resources.

Public company reporting and disclosure obligations and a broader stockholder base as a result of our status as a public company exposes us to a greater risk of claims by stockholders, and we may experience threatened or actual litigation from time to time. If claims asserted in such litigation are successful, our business and operating results could be adversely affected, and, even if claims do not result in litigation or are resolved in our favor, these claims, and the time and resources necessary to resolve them and the diversion of management resources, could adversely affect our business and operating results.

We are an “emerging growth company” and will be able to avail ourselves of reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies, which could make our common stock less attractive to investors.

We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act, and we intend to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. In addition, under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay the adoption of certain new or revised accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, we will not be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies or that have opted out of using such extended transition period, which may make comparison of our financial statements with those of other public companies more difficult. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.

We may take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an emerging growth company or, with respect to adoption of certain new or revised accounting standards, until we irrevocably elect to opt out of using the extended transition period. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of $1.235 billion or more; (ii) the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of our IPO; (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous three years; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under the rules of the SEC.

Risks Relating to Our Organizational Structure

Provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could make a merger, tender offer, or proxy contest difficult, thereby depressing the trading price of our common stock.

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that could depress the trading price of our common stock by acting to discourage, delay, or prevent a change of control of our Company or changes in our management that our stockholders may deem advantageous. In particular, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws:

•

establish a classified board of directors so that not all members are elected at one time, which could delay the ability of stockholders to change the membership of a majority of our board of directors;

•

permit our board of directors to establish the number of directors and fill any vacancies (including vacancies resulting from an expansion in the size of our board of directors), except in the case of the vacancy of a director designated by CAVU Venture Partners II, LP, CAVU Venture Partners III, LP, CAVU Venture Partners IV, LP, and TNG Investors LP, which are investment funds managed by CAVU Consumer Partners LLC (collectively, “CAVU”), so long as CAVU continues to have the right to nominate a director pursuant to the terms of the Director Nomination Agreement (in which case CAVU will be able to fill the vacancy);

•

establish limitations on the removal of directors;

•

authorize the issuance of “blank check” preferred stock that our board of directors could use to implement a stockholder rights plan;

•

provide that our board of directors is expressly authorized to make, alter, or repeal our bylaws;

•

restrict the forum for certain litigation against us to Delaware;

•

provide that stockholders may not act by written consent, which would require stockholder action to be taken at an annual or special meeting of our stockholders;

•

prohibit stockholders from calling special meetings, which would delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or to take action, including with respect to the removal of directors; and

•

establish advance notice requirements for nominations for election to our board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted upon by stockholders at annual stockholder meetings, which may discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us.

Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination with an interested stockholder, generally a person, individually or together with any other interested stockholder, who owns or within the last three years has owned 15% of our voting stock, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. We have elected to opt out of Section 203 of the DGCL. However, our certificate of incorporation will contain a provision that is of similar effect, except that it will exempt from its scope CAVU and S2G Ventures Fund I, L.P., S2G Ventures Fund II, L.P., and S2G Builders Food and Agriculture Fund III, L.P., which are investment funds managed by S2G Investments, LLC (collectively “S2G”) and any of their affiliates and certain of their respective direct or indirect transferees.

In addition, as a public benefit corporation, our board of directors is required by the DGCL to manage or direct our business conduct, and the specific public benefits identified in our certificate of incorporation. We believe that our

public benefit corporation status will make it more difficult for another party to obtain control of us without maintaining our public benefit corporation status and purpose.

Any provision of our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws or Delaware law that has the effect of delaying or deterring a change in control could limit the opportunity for our stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of common stock and could also affect the price that some investors are willing to pay for our common stock.

Our certificate of incorporation will designate the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware as the exclusive forum for certain litigation that may be initiated by our stockholders and the federal district courts of the United States as the exclusive forum for litigation arising under the Securities Act, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us.

Pursuant to our certificate of incorporation, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for any claims in state court for (1) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, (2) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors, officers or other employees to us or our stockholders, (3) any action asserting a claim against us arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, our certificate of incorporation or our bylaws, or (4) any other action asserting a claim against us that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, the forum selection provision that identifies the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware as the exclusive forum for certain litigation, including any “derivative action,” will not apply to suits to enforce a duty or liability created by Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Our certificate of incorporation will also provide that unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States shall be the exclusive forum for the resolutions of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act.

Moreover, Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all claims brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder and our certificate of incorporation will also provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum and to the fullest extent permitted by law, the federal district courts of the United States shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. While there can be no assurance that federal or state courts will follow the holding of the Delaware Supreme Court or determine that our federal forum provision should be enforced in a particular case, application of our federal forum provision means that suits brought by our stockholders to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act must be brought in federal court and cannot be brought in state court.

Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all claims brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder and our certificate of incorporation will provide that neither the exclusive forum provision nor our federal forum provision applies to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act. Accordingly, actions by our stockholders to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder must be brought in federal court. Our stockholders will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with the federal securities laws and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

Our certificate of incorporation will further provide that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of our capital stock is deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of our certificate of incorporation described above. The forum selection clause in our certificate of incorporation may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against us or our directors and officers and may limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us. If the enforceability of our forum selection provisions were to be challenged, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such challenge. While we currently have no basis to expect any such challenge would be successful, if a court were to find our forum selection provisions to be inapplicable or unenforceable with respect to one or more of these specified types of actions or proceedings, we may incur additional costs associated with having to litigate in other jurisdictions, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and prospects and result in a diversion of the time and resources of our employees, management, and board of directors.

Our certificate of incorporation will contain a provision renouncing our interest and expectancy in certain corporate opportunities.

Under our certificate of incorporation, neither CAVU nor S2G, nor any of their respective portfolio companies, funds, or other affiliates, nor any of their officers, directors, employees, agents, stockholders, members, or partners will have any duty to refrain from engaging, directly or indirectly, in the same business activities, similar business activities, or lines of business in which we operate. In addition, our certificate of incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, no officer or director of ours who is also an officer, director, employee, agent, stockholder, member, partner, or affiliate of either of CAVU or S2G will be liable to us or our stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty by reason of the fact that any such individual directs a corporate opportunity to CAVU or S2G, instead of to us, or does not communicate information regarding a corporate opportunity to us that the officer, director, employee, agent, stockholder, member, partner, or affiliate has directed to CAVU or S2G. For example, a director of our Company who also serves as an officer, director, employee, agent, stockholder, member, partner, or affiliate of CAVU or S2G, or any of their respective portfolio companies, funds, or other affiliates may pursue certain acquisitions or other opportunities that may be complementary to our business and, as a result, such acquisition or other opportunities may not be available to us. These potential conflicts of interest could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or prospects if attractive corporate opportunities are allocated by CAVU or S2G to themselves or their respective portfolio companies, funds, or other affiliates instead of to us.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.

None.

Item 1C. Cybersecurity.

Risk Management and Strategy

We have implemented and maintain various information security processes designed to identify, assess, and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats to our critical computer networks, third-party hosted services, communications systems, hardware and software, and our critical data, including intellectual property, confidential information that is proprietary, strategic, or competitive in nature, and personal and financial data regarding our employees, suppliers, customers, and other business partners.

Our Information Technology department, under the leadership of our Chief Accounting Officer and the Vice President of IT and Systems, and with cross-functional internal and third-party support, helps identify, assess, and manage our cybersecurity threats and risks. The Information Technology department leverages the Center for Internet Security (CIS) Cybersecurity Framework to assess risks from cybersecurity threats and monitors our threat environment and our risk profile using various methods, including, for example, regular threat assessments (including through interaction with law enforcement when necessary), internal and external audits, threat environment scans and third-party threat assessments, vulnerability assessments, external intelligence feeds, and third-party-conducted tabletop training exercises.

Depending on the environment and system, we implement and maintain certain technical and physical processes, standards, and policies designed to manage and mitigate material risks from cybersecurity threats to our information systems and data, including, for example, a written incident response plan and incident response policy, business continuity plans, data encryption for certain data, implementation of certain security standards, network security and access controls, data segregation, asset tracking/disposal systems, penetration testing, and required employee training programs.

Our assessment and management of material risks from cybersecurity threats are integrated into our overall risk management processes. Our Information Technology department and third-party providers work with our senior leadership team to prioritize our risk management processes and mitigate cybersecurity threats that are likely to materially impact our business. Our senior leadership team evaluates material risks from cybersecurity threats against our overall business objectives and will report to the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors, which is responsible for evaluating our overall enterprise risk.

We use third-party service providers to assist us from time to time to identify, assess, and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats, including professional services firms, penetration testing providers, cybersecurity consultants, forensic investigators, training platforms, and managed cybersecurity service providers.

We have experienced, and may in the future experience, whether directly or through our third-party providers, cybersecurity incidents. While risks from cybersecurity threats, including prior incidents, have not had a material impact on us, future incidents could have a material impact on our business strategy, results of operations, and financial condition. For additional information about the Company’s cybersecurity risks, please refer to the section titled “Risks Relating to Intellectual Property and Information Technology” in Part I, Item 1A. in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Governance

Our Board of Directors is responsible for addressing our cybersecurity risk management as part of its general oversight function. Our Audit Committee has been delegated oversight of the assessment and management of the Company’s cybersecurity risks, and the steps management takes to monitor and control such exposures. Our Audit Committee will report to our Board of Directors on significant cybersecurity matters periodically, or more often as the need arises. Management is responsible for providing regular updates on the Company’s cybersecurity risks resulting from risk assessments to the Audit Committee.

Our cybersecurity risk assessment and management processes are implemented and maintained by certain members of our management, including our Vice President of IT and Systems, with the oversight of our Chief Accounting Officer. Our Vice President of IT and Systems is responsible for hiring appropriate personnel, helping to integrate cybersecurity risk considerations into our overall risk management strategy, and communicating key priorities to relevant personnel. Our Vice President of IT and Systems, in consultation with our Chief Accounting Officer, is responsible for approving budgets, helping prepare for cybersecurity incidents, approving cybersecurity processes, and reviewing security assessments and other security-related reports. Our Vice President of IT and Systems has over 30 years of relevant experience, including leadership roles in the information technology departments of public and private companies, as well as various cybersecurity certifications. Our Chief Accounting Officer has diverse work experience spanning over 30 years, with extensive expertise in finance, accounting, risk management, compliance, and strategic management.

Item 2. Properties.

We lease our principal executive offices, which are located at 950 Gilman Street, Suite 100, Berkeley, CA 94710.

Any future determination relating to our dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on a number of factors, including restrictions in our current and future debt instruments, our future earnings, capital requirements, financial condition, prospects, and applicable Delaware law, which provides that dividends are only payable out of surplus or current net profits.

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans

Information about securities authorized for issuance under our equity compensation plans as of December 31, 2025 is incorporated herein by reference to Part III, Item 12. “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

Our thoughtful recipes are crafted with high-quality organic ingredients, from cold-pressed Pouches, to Refrigerated Oat Bars and Dry Baby Snacks, earning us the trust of parents, and fostering a loyal, passionate, and fast-growing consumer base.

In February 2026, we closed the initial public offering ("IPO") of our common stock, in which we issued and sold an aggregate of 7,631,537 shares of common stock at a price to the public of $18 per share. Shortly following the close of the offering, the underwriters exercised their option to purchase an additional 1,649,581 shares at the initial public offering price. In the aggregate, we received net proceeds from the offering of approximately $139.3 million, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses.

Key Factors Affecting our Performance

Our ability to achieve sustainable growth and profitability is impacted by many factors, including those described below and in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain factors are strategically tied to key metrics that define our success:

Increasing Brand Awareness and Household Penetration

Growing our brand awareness and household penetration is central to our strategy for long-term growth. Our approach and creation of great-tasting, high-quality, nutritional and organic products that kids love establishes trust in parents and fosters brand-loyalty from our customers. As we continue to expand our innovative product offerings, we plan to establish trust with parents in the early stages of their baby’s development, building brand loyalty that allows us to strategically deliver great-tasting, healthy and convenient products to kids of all ages. We plan to increase our brand awareness and household penetration by leveraging a full-funnel modern marketing approach that includes retail media networks, influencer programs, high-frequency national media campaigns, engaging social media, impactful sponsorships, and immersive activations. To grow and maintain our brand, we must invest in sales and marketing to promote word-of-mouth sharing of our brand to attract new customers. We believe that once consumers are introduced to our brand and products, we will be able to drive conversion to repeat purchases and long-term loyalty.

Investment in Retail Partnerships and Distribution Expansion

Our long-term growth strategy relies on our ability to cultivate and maintain relationships with our retail customers to expand our presence and optimize distribution across all retail stores. Our success is dependent on deepening the assortment of our product offerings and ensuring that our products are prominently displayed in both our retail customers’ brick-and-mortar stores and e-commerce platforms. Our relationships with our retail customers also allow us to deepen the assortment of our product offerings by extending our reach to new product categories and expanding the number of shelves that our products are displayed on at stores in major classes of retail, including grocery, mass, club, natural and specialty stores.

We also intend to grow our sales and in-store footprint through the national rollout of our cooler program. Our coolers, which can be found replacing standard shelving in the baby aisle, as an end-cap display or free standing in the baby aisle, currently feature our widest selection of Pouches and baby food meals. As of December 31, 2025, we have deployed over 3,400 coolers in stores to date and believe there is an opportunity to expand the footprint to more than 15,000 coolers in stores in North America. We invest in slotting fees and offer other incentives to encourage our retail customers to place our coolers in more of their stores and display our coolers in ideal locations within their stores. As we accelerate the rollout of coolers, we expect increases in overall sales velocity and believe there are further opportunities for sales velocity enhancement as we continue to optimize the product assortment offered in the cooler and encourage excitement for our product across aisles. The presence of baby coolers also drives an increase in basket size for the whole baby department, which encourages our retail customers to participate in this initiative with us. The direct impact of the new cooler additions on our net sales varies based on numerous factors including store traffic and cooler size.

In addition to our primary retail growth strategy of increasing depth of our product offerings with our existing retail customers, we believe there is a significant opportunity to increase sales through e-commerce and delivery platforms and expand into new retail customers and international markets.

Product Innovation and Category Leadership

We are confident that through innovation in new products, product line extensions, and packaging types, we will drive meaningful growth for our Company. Investment in strategic product innovation is vital for meeting evolving consumer needs and complementing our existing product portfolio to expand our brand’s reach. We continue to expand and enhance our product offerings, including launches of Refrigerated Oat Bars and shelf-stable baby snacks, to meet the evolving needs of our consumers and drive demand for our products.

Aligning our innovation pipeline with consumer demands for organic, nutritious, delicious, and convenient products has positioned us as a leader in the baby and kids’ food market. We plan to invest in exploring new flavor combinations and innovative formats that enhance taste and nutritional value, and in expanding our existing functional product offerings across various formats, such as immunity, brain health, and protein, to provide parents with the functionality they are looking for and satisfy the cravings of babies and kids.

Drive Sustainable, Profitable Growth

Our future success is dependent on our ability to drive sustainable and profitable growth. We have made significant investments in assembling our strong leadership team, implementing strategic sales management principles, and building our global procurement network infrastructure to support long-term growth and to enhance the profitability of our core operating model as we grow. We also plan to continue to invest in expansion and automation of our scalable production platform with our co-manufacturing partners to increase our capacity and operational efficiency to support our growth and achieve economies of scale. With these investments, we believe we will be well-positioned to consistently deliver the highest quality, premium products to our consumers while also ensuring profitability and sustainability for Once Upon a Farm.

Macroeconomic Uncertainty and Supply Chain Costs

Uncertainty in the macroeconomic environment resulting from geopolitical and economic instability, including the imposition of tariffs, embargoes, or similar restrictions could cause disruption in our supply chain. For example, in 2025, the U.S. presidential administration announced the imposition of tariffs on numerous countries that trade with the United States. As the implementation of tariffs is ongoing, more tariffs may be added in the future and countermeasures may be adopted by other countries. The imposition of certain of these tariffs remains uncertain as the situation is dynamic and rapidly evolving. New or increased tariffs could also negatively affect U.S national or regional economies or lead to increased inflation or a recession, which also could negatively impact our sales growth, and our business and results of operations. Any tariffs or other barriers to trade affecting Mexico and South America in particular, two regions from which we source a significant portion of our key fruit and vegetable ingredients, could lead to, among other things, shortages and higher cost of procurement, and could negatively impact our business and profitability.

In addition, in recent years, we have experienced elevated commodity and supply chain costs, including the costs of raw materials, packaging, labor, energy, fuel, freight, and other inputs necessary for the production and distribution of our products, and we expect elevated levels of inflation to continue in 2026. Such elevated commodity and supply chain costs and inflation levels did not have a material impact on our results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. In an effort to mitigate the impact of these elevated costs, we have taken actions to: diversify the regions from which we source the raw materials used in our business, remove intermediate third parties in our supply chain, scale our business and work with co-manufacturing partners to increase our capacity and operational efficiency, including through investment in equipment used by our co-manufacturers.

For a further discussion of the risks and challenges posed by these events, see Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Components of Results of Operations

Net Sales

We generate revenue through sales of organic, nutrient-packed, farm-fresh Pouches, snacks, and other products for babies and kids through retail channels, which include traditional brick-and-mortar stores, e-commerce platforms, and delivery platforms, as well as directly to consumers through our direct-to-consumer (“DTC”) platform that we operate. Our revenue is recognized net of allowances for sales discounts and promotions and any sales or other similar taxes collected from consumers. We offer sales discounts and promotions to our retail and DTC customers through various programs. These programs include sales incentives, trade allowances, slotting fees, coupon offers, rebates, and term discounts. We anticipate that these sales discounts and promotions will impact our net sales and that changes in these activities could impact period over period results.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold consists primarily of product costs, third-party manufacturing fees, inbound freight of raw materials and finished goods, storage and handling costs during the manufacturing process, product loading and handling at our outsourced production facilities for distribution, depreciation of machinery, and equipment used in the manufacturing process as well as duties and tariffs.

We source our organic raw materials from farmers both in the United States and international markets. We also contract with outsourced partners in the United States to manufacture, package, and distribute our products to our customers.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit represents net sales less cost of goods sold. Gross margin is gross profit expressed as a percentage of net sales.

Our gross margin may in the future fluctuate from period to period based on a number of factors, including costs of produce and commodities, manufacturing, warehousing and transportation rates for inbound raw materials. Gross margin may also fluctuate in the future based on changes in the promotional environment in the marketplace, the mix of products we sell, the channel through which we sell our products and innovation initiatives we undertake in each of our product categories, among other factors.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of payroll and payroll-related benefits, stock-based compensation, marketing content and agency fees, customer growth and acquisition costs, warehouse and distribution costs, and freight costs associated with shipping goods to customers. Selling, general and administrative expenses also include depreciation and amortization and product development costs.

We expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase in the future as we continue to scale our operations to meet our product demand, continue to build our product portfolio, and add personnel to our sales and marketing organization. We also expect to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company, including increased expenses related to legal, audit, accounting, regulatory, and tax-related services associated with maintaining compliance with exchange listing and SEC requirements, director and officer insurance costs, investor and public relations costs, and other administrative and professional services.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest income consists of interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents. Interest expense is attributable to interest on our outstanding borrowings under our Nonconvertible Debt and Convertible Notes agreements (each as defined below). Following our initial public offering, we expect our interest expense to decrease, as a portion of the proceeds from the initial public offering were used to repay borrowings then outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility and our outstanding Convertible Notes were converted into shares prior to or at the time of the offering. However, our Revolving Credit Facility provides for availability of up to $65.0 million of borrowings and our Term Loan for availability of up to $30.0 million. From time to time, we may draw amounts under our Revolving Credit Facility and our Term Loan Facility and expect to incur interest expense as a result of any such draws.

Change in fair value of derivative liability consists of adjustments to the fair value of our derivative liability. As a result of our initial public offering in February 2026 and the conversion of our outstanding Convertible Notes into shares of common stock, the derivative liability was eliminated and there will be no subsequent change in its fair value.

Other income (expense), net primarily consists of gains or losses due to adjustments to the fair value of our convertible preferred stock warrant liability. Subsequent to our initial public offering, the convertible preferred stock warrant liability was eliminated as a result of the exercise of the underlying warrants, and there will be no subsequent changes in its fair value.

Net sales	$	240,681	$	156,801	$	83,880			53	%

The increase in net sales of $83.9 million, or 53%, was primarily due to a 42% increase in volume growth, driven by both incremental distribution of existing products and the introduction of new products into our portfolio. The increase in net sales was also driven by a more favorable product mix primarily due to the introduction of newer products that are sold at a higher price per unit. Additionally, since 2024, we have launched 80 new SKUs across categories, with 45 new SKUs introduced in 2025. A “new SKU” is a unique product configuration, represented by a distinct GTIN/UPC, or barcode, that differs from existing SKUs in formulation, flavor, size, or format, and is introduced for commercial sale in the Company’s markets for the first time. Our newly launched kid and baby snacks categories resulted in a combined $58.7 million increase in net sales year over year. Net sales from Kid Pouches increased by $22.5 million and net sales from baby Pouches increased by $4.4 million year over year. For the year ended December 31, 2025, we incurred increased trade spending primarily related to slotting fees paid to retail customers for placement of new coolers in their stores, which was recognized as a reduction of net sales.

Cost of Goods Sold


	Year Ended December 31,
	2025			2024			$ Change		% Change
	(dollars in thousands)
Cost of goods sold	$	138,794		$	88,464		$	50,330		57	%
Percentage of net sales		58	%		56	%				2	%

The increase in cost of goods sold of $50.3 million, or 57%, was primarily due to increased sales volume. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales increased by 2% primarily due to increased trade spending, which is recognized as a reduction in net sales and changes in sales mix.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin


	Year Ended December 31,
	2025			2024			$ Change		% Change
	(dollars in thousands)
Gross profit	$	101,887		$	68,337		$	33,550		49	%
Gross margin		42	%		44	%				(2	)%

The increase in gross profit by $33.6 million was driven by higher net sales generated during year ended December 31, 2025. The decrease in gross margin by 2% for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily driven by increased cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales due to increased

trade spending. The increase in trade spending was primarily driven by slotting fees related to expansion into new stores, placement of coolers in retail customer stores, and dairy category resets in January 2025.

Selling, General and Administrative


	Year Ended December 31,
	2025			2024			$ Change		% Change
	(dollars in thousands)
Selling, general and administrative	$	107,590		$	74,655		$	32,935		44	%
Percentage of net sales		45	%		48	%				(3	)%

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $32.9 million, or 44%, primarily driven by:

•

an increase of $9.4 million in marketing expenses, primarily comprised of an increase in paid media spend, as well as an increase in spend in our shopper marketing program to better reach target consumers;

•

an increase of $5.9 million in stock-based compensation, depreciation, travel, and other expenses to support our increase in headcount and continued growth;

•

an increase of $5.9 million in employee-related costs, driven by an overall increase in headcount to support our continued growth;

•

an increase of $5.2 million in warehouse and distribution expenses and higher outbound freight driven by higher sales volumes and carrying larger volumes of inventory on hand throughout the year to support our growth;

•

an increase of $4.3 million in selling expenses, primarily driven by increases in merchandising fees, third-party commissions and other customer growth and acquisition costs, to support the growth in sales volume; and

•

an increase of $2.2 million in professional fees due to accounting, finance and legal costs as we prepared to operate as a public company.

The increase in interest expense by $1.1 million, or 70%, during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, was due to increased borrowings. There was a $14.0 million draw on the Company’s existing credit facilities in February 2025, an additional $7.0 million draw in July 2025 and a total of $14.0 million in draws in the fourth quarter of 2025, which resulted in increased interest expense.

	(dollars in thousands)
Interest income	$	294	$	892	$	(598	)		(67	)%

The decrease in interest income of $0.6 million, or 67%, was due to lower average cash balances in our money market accounts during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024.

Change in fair value of derivative liability	$	(8,566	)	$	(16,037	)	$	7,471		(47	)%

The change in fair value of derivative liability of $7.5 million was driven by a decrease in the change in fair value of our convertible preferred stock underlying the convertible notes.

Other Income (Expense), Net


	Year Ended December 31,
	2025			2024			$ Change		% Change
	(dollars in thousands)
Other income (expense), net	$	(531	)	$	(712	)	$	181		(25	)%

The change in other income (expense), net of $0.2 million was primarily due to a decrease in the change in fair value of our convertible preferred stock warrant liability during the year ended December 31, 2025.

On February 9, 2026, we completed an IPO in which we issued and sold 7,631,537 shares of common stock, at the public offering price of $18.00 per share, plus an additional 1,649,581 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $18.00 per share pursuant to the exercise of the underwriter's option to purchase additional shares. We received net proceeds of approximately $139.3 million from the IPO, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us. Historically, we have generated operating losses and have relied on private sales of securities and proceeds from debt financing to fund our operations. As of December 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $10.9 million and accumulated deficit of $135.7 million. For the year ended December 31, 2025, we incurred a net loss from operations of $17.2 million and net cash flow used in operating activities totaled $29.9 million. We expect that our existing cash and cash equivalents, including net proceeds from our IPO, along with available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility, will be sufficient to support our operations for at least the next 12 months and well as to meet our cash requirements for the longer term.

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our pace of new and existing customer growth, our investments in innovation, our investment in cooler placements at retail stores, our investments in partnerships, and unexplored channels. We may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. There can be no assurance that additional equity or debt financing will be available to us at terms acceptable to us, or at all and such financing

will be impacted by many factors, including the liquidity of the overall capital markets and the future state of the U.S. and global economy.

Nonconvertible Debt

On June 27, 2025 (the “Initial Closing Date”), we entered into a Credit Agreement with Western Alliance Bank (the “Credit Agreement”) for a delayed draw term loan (the “Term Loan Facility”) and a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”, and together with the Term Loan Facility, the “Nonconvertible Debt”). The Revolving Credit Facility had an initial funding commitment of up to $65.0 million which included (i) an initial commitment of $45.0 million and (ii) a $20.0 million uncommitted option, subject to syndication at terms acceptable to prospective lenders (with such increase implemented through the amendment executed on September 11, 2025). The Term Loan Facility had a commitment of $30.0 million which includes (i) $18.0 million available on the Initial Closing Date and (ii) $12.0 million available upon achieving certain milestones and lender approval. On the Initial Closing Date, the Company borrowed $22.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility to repay all outstanding amounts under its previously existing debt facilities.

On September 11, 2025, the Credit Agreement was amended to, among other things, increase the Revolving Credit Facility funding commitment to up to $65.0 million. This increase reflects our lender’s commitment to fund the previously uncommitted $20.0 million option.

As of December 31, 2025, there was $43.0 million borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Interest on borrowings under the Term Loan Facility is calculated at a rate equal to (i) 2.50% plus the highest of (w) the prime rate (as determined by reference to the Wall Street Journal), (x) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum and (y) one month Term SOFR plus 1.00% per annum or (ii) one month Term SOFR plus 3.50% per annum, subject to a 2.00% Term SOFR floor. Interest-only payments are required to be made until July 10, 2027, then (i) with respect to $18.0 million of the Term Loan Facility, equal payments of outstanding principal and (ii) with respect to $12.0 million of the Term Loan Facility, 24 months after the borrowing of such amount with equal payments of outstanding principal, plus monthly interest payments, through the maturity date. As of December 31, 2025, there were no amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Facility.

Interest on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility is calculated at a rate equal to (i) 2.25% plus the highest of (w) the prime rate (as determined by reference to the Wall Street Journal), (x) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% per annum and (y) one month Term SOFR plus 1.00% per annum, or (ii) one month Term SOFR plus 3.25% per annum, subject to a 2.00% Term SOFR floor. Interest-only payments are required with a balloon principal payment on the maturity date. The interest rate applicable to borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility was 7.0% as of December 31, 2025.

The borrowing base for the Revolving Credit Facility requires us to maintain collateral in the form of accounts receivable and inventory. Amounts available to us are determined as the lower of (a) the current maximum capacity and (b) the sum of (i) 80% of the Company’s gross accounts receivable and (ii) 85% of the liquidation value of inventory, each subject to certain adjustments. The Nonconvertible Debt includes financial and nonfinancial covenant provisions. As of December 31, 2025, we were in compliance with all covenants related to the Nonconvertible Debt. As of December 31, 2025, the maximum remaining capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility was $22.0 million, with $8.0 million available for borrowing based on existing inventory and accounts receivable balances as described by the Credit Agreement.

Following completion of the IPO in February 2026, we used a portion of the proceeds thereof to repay all outstanding amounts under the Nonconvertible Debt. As of the date of issuance of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we have no outstanding debt and up to $65.0 million is available to draw under the Revolving Credit Facility and up to $30.0 million is available to draw under the Term Loan Facility.

Convertible Notes

In 2021, we issued $3.6 million of convertible notes (the “Series C-1 Convertible Notes”) convertible into Series C-1 convertible preferred stock to an existing investor (the “Note Holder”) and $4.3 million of convertible notes (the “Series C-2 Convertible Notes”) to the Note Holder. The Series C-1 Convertible Notes and C-2 Convertible Notes were convertible into their respective classes of convertible preferred stock at a fixed conversion price.

In 2022, we issued an additional $9.3 million of convertible notes (the “Series D Convertible Notes”) convertible into Series D convertible preferred stock to the Note Holder. The Series D Convertible Notes were convertible into Series D convertible preferred stock at a fixed conversion price.

The Series C-1 Convertible Notes, Series C-2 Convertible Notes, and Series D Convertible Notes (collectively, the “Convertible Notes”) had a maturity date of the earliest to occur among (i) an event of default, (ii) the closing of a deemed liquidation event or (iii) the closing of a liquidation.

Immediately prior to the closing of the IPO in February 2026, all outstanding Convertible Notes were converted into the respective classes of convertible preferred stock, which then immediately converted into an aggregate of 2,819,512 shares of our common stock at the applicable conversion ratio then in effect. Upon conversion, the carrying values of the Convertible Notes, together with accrued interest, and the related derivative liability, which was remeasured to fair value on the IPO date, were reclassified to additional paid-in capital.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the years indicated:


	Year Ended December 31,

Net cash provided by financing activities		28,710			400
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents	$	(6,446	)	$	(13,649	)

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities of $29.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily driven by net loss of $17.2 million, non-cash adjustments of $17.7 million, and a net decrease in cash related to changes in operating assets and liabilities of $30.4 million. Non-cash adjustments primarily consisted of a change in fair value of derivative liability of $8.6 million, stock-based compensation of $3.9 million, inventory adjustments of $2.5 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $1.3 million, a change in fair value of convertible preferred stock warrant liability of $0.5 million, amortization of debt discounts and deferred financing costs of $0.5 million, non-cash interest expense of $0.3 million, and SARs issued to a customer of $0.1 million. Changes in cash flows related to operating assets and liabilities primarily consisted of an $25.8 million increase in inventory to support the increase in sales volume, a $10.9 million increase in accounts receivable due to growth in our net sales, a $7.0 million increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities, primarily related to third-party manufacturing fees and raw material purchases to support growth in sales volume, as well as increased accrued expenses related to the Spokesperson Agreement (as defined herein), and a $0.7 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets, primarily due to increases in prepaid insurance and deferred taxes.

Net cash used in operating activities of $11.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily driven by net loss of $23.8 million, non-cash adjustments of $21.9 million, and a net decrease in cash related to changes in operating assets and liabilities of $9.1 million. Non-cash adjustments primarily consisted of a change in fair value of derivative liability of $16.0 million, a change in fair value of convertible preferred stock warrant liability of $0.8 million, stock-based compensation totaling $1.8 million, warrants issued to a customer of $0.7 million, inventory adjustments of $0.9 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $0.8 million, amortization of debt discounts and deferred financing costs of $0.6 million, and non-cash interest expense of $0.3 million. Changes in cash flows related to operating assets and liabilities primarily consisted of a $10.6 million increase in accounts receivable due to growth in our net sales and due to the launch of new products in the kids and baby snacking category, a $6.9 million increase in inventory to support the increase in sales volume, and a $3.3 million decrease in accounts payable due to timing of payments. These uses of cash were partially offset by a $11.2 million increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities primarily due to increased accrued trade spend and accrued marketing costs to support increased sales, and a $0.5 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets due to timing of payments.

Investing Activities

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, net cash used in investing activities was $5.3 million and $3.0 million, related to purchases of property and equipment used in ongoing operations.

Financing Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2025, net cash provided by financing activities was $28.7 million, primarily consisting of $35.0 million in borrowings from our Credit Agreement and $1.4 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options. These sources of cash were partially offset by payments of deferred offering costs of $7.2 million and payments of debt issuance costs of $0.5 million.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash provided by financing activities was $0.4 million, which primarily consisted of proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

To supplement our financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use the non-GAAP financial measures Contribution Margin and Adjusted EBITDA to provide investors with additional information about our financial performance and to enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects. We are presenting these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe they provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our core financial performance over multiple periods with the performance of other companies.

However, non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in their usefulness to investors because they have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and are not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. In addition, non-GAAP financial measures may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. As a result, non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, our financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

To address these limitations, we provide a reconciliation of Contribution Profit to gross profit and Adjusted EBITDA to net loss. We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure, and to view Contribution Margin and Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with their respective related GAAP financial measures.

Contribution Margin

We use Contribution Margin, which we define as Contribution Profit divided by net sales, to measure our financial and operating performance. To derive Contribution Profit, we subtract from gross profit our outbound freight costs associated with shipping goods to customers included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

We use Contribution Margin as part of our overall assessment of performance, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts, to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, and to communicate with our board of directors concerning our financial performance. We believe Contribution Margin is useful to investors for year-to-year comparisons of our business and in evaluating and understanding our operating results and ability to scale. Contribution Margin is also useful to investors because our management uses Contribution Margin, in conjunction with financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate our operating results and financial performance.

There was no change to the Contribution Margin for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The factors impacting Contribution Margin are consistent with those discussed with respect to gross profit in the results of operations above.

The following table provides a calculation of Contribution Margin:


	Year Ended December 31,
	2025			2024
	(dollars in thousands)
Net sales	$	240,681		$	156,801
Cost of goods sold		138,794			88,464
Gross profit		101,887			68,337
Less: Outbound freight		(13,369	)		(10,641	)
Contribution Profit	$	88,518		$	57,696
Gross margin		42	%		44	%
Contribution Margin		37	%		37	%

Adjusted EBITDA

We report our financial results in accordance with GAAP. However, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, provides investors with additional useful information in evaluating our performance.

We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net loss, adjusted to exclude: (1) change in fair value of derivative liability; (2) change in fair value of convertible preferred stock warrant liability; (3) stock-based compensation; (4) depreciation and amortization; (5) amortization of payments under the Spokesperson Agreement (as defined in Note 14, Related- Party Transactions in Part II, Item 8. of this Annual Report on Form 10-K); (6) interest expense; (7) interest income; and (8) provision for income taxes.

Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, when taken together with our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating performance and facilitates internal comparisons of our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our business, results of operations, or outlook. In particular, we believe that the use of Adjusted EBITDA is helpful to our investors as it is a measure used by management in assessing the health of our business, determining incentive compensation, and evaluating our operating performance, as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes.

Adjusted EBITDA is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Some of the limitations of Adjusted EBITDA include that (1) it does not properly reflect capital commitments to be paid in the future, (2) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the underlying assets may need to be replaced and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect these capital expenditures, (3) it does not consider the impact of stock-based compensation, (4) it does not reflect other non-operating expenses, including interest expense,

(5) it does not consider the impact of any derivative liability valuation adjustments, (6) it does not reflect tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us, and (7) it does not consider amortization of payments under the Spokesperson Agreement. In addition, our use of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Because of these limitations, when evaluating our performance, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial measures, including our net income and other results stated in accordance with GAAP.

The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net (loss) income, the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP, for the periods presented:


	Year Ended December 31,

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and related notes thereto. Critical accounting estimates are those estimates that, in accordance with GAAP, involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial statements. Management has determined that our most critical accounting estimates are those relating to revenue recognition, valuation of derivative liability, fair value of common stock and stock-based compensation. Although we believe that the estimates we use are reasonable, due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making these estimates, actual results reported in future periods could differ materially from those estimates. The following is a summary of certain accounting estimates we consider critical. For further discussion about our accounting policies, see Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our financial statements in Part II, Item 8. in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Revenue Recognition

Our revenue is generated through sales of Pouches, snacks and other products for babies and kids through retail channels, which include traditional brick-and-mortar stores and e-commerce platforms, as well as directly to consumers through our DTC platform that we operate. We recognize revenue when control of the products transfers to the customer, which occurs upon customer pickup or delivery of the products to the customer for retail sales or when the product is delivered to the carrier for DTC sales. Our revenue is recognized net of allowances for sales discounts and promotions and any taxes collected from consumers.

We offer sales discounts and promotions to our customers through various programs. These programs include sales incentives, trade allowances, slotting fees, including baby cooler slotting fees, coupon offers, rebates and term discounts. The costs of these sales discounts and promotions are accounted for as reductions in the transaction price.

We estimate variable consideration related to the cost of sales discounts and promotions during the period the product is sold. We recognize an allowance for estimated trade discounts that have been incurred but the corresponding trade receivable was not settled as of each balance sheet date. We also recognize an accrual for the estimated cost of promotional activities. Our estimate of trade discounts and accrued promotional activities is a management estimate based on the terms and timing of our programs offered, expected participation based on our historical experience with similar programs and forecasted sales volumes.

We do not believe it is reasonably likely that there will be a material change in the estimates or assumptions used to recognize revenue. Estimates are made based on historical experience and other factors. Typically, programs that are offered have a short duration and historical differences between actual experience compared to estimated volumes, performance and redemptions have not been significant to the annual financial statements. However, if the level of redemption rates, volumes or performance were to vary significantly from our estimates, we may be exposed to gains or losses that could be material.

Derivative Liability

Our Convertible Notes contain conversion features that meet the definition of an embedded derivative that requires bifurcation from the Convertible Notes and measurement at fair value. The derivative liability is initially measured at fair value on issuance and is subject to remeasurement at each reporting period with changes in fair value recognized in change in fair value of derivative liability in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

We determine the fair value of our derivative liability related to Convertible Notes using a “with-and-without” methodology. This involves valuing the instrument with and without the embedded derivative, with the difference representing the derivative liability’s fair value at issuance. Key assumptions include the estimated fair value of the underlying preferred stock, the probability and timing of conversion events, dividend yields, volatility, discount rate, risk-free rate and remaining expected life. Changes in these inputs can materially impact the fair value and reported financial results, including loss and comprehensive loss for the applicable reporting period.

Fair Value of Common Stock

Prior to our initial public offering in February 2026 the fair value of the common stock underlying our stock-based awards has historically been determined by management with the assistance of third-party valuation specialists using a hybrid approach. Under the hybrid approach, a probability weighting was assigned to both a merger and acquisition (“M&A”) scenario and an initial public offering scenario. For the M&A scenario, management uses the Income Approach and Guideline Public Company (“GPC”) approach to determine the estimated fair value of equity, which was then allocated to the various classes of equity using the Option Pricing Method (“OPM”). Under the OPM, the shares were valued by creating a series of call options with exercise prices based on the liquidation preferences and conversion terms of each equity class. The estimated fair values of the common stock, preferred stock and preferred stock warrants are then inferred by analyzing these options. For the initial public offering scenario, we estimated the exit value upon an initial public offering and then performed a waterfall analysis to systematically allocate the equity value across share classes according to their fully diluted ownership positions.

For the income approach, we use a discounted cash flow analysis (“DCF”) and the significant assumptions used in determining the estimated fair value of our common stock under the income approach primarily relate to the selection of the revenue growth rate, the forecasted EBITDA margin, and the selected discount rate used to discount the future cash flows. Under the GPC approach, the selection of revenue and EBITDA multiples requires significant judgment. Under the initial public offering scenario there is significant judgment used in determining the exit value upon the completion of a successful initial public offering. There is also significant judgment in weighting the probability of the M&A scenario versus the initial public offering scenario.

Subsequent to the completion of our IPO in February 2026, our board of directors determines the fair value of our common stock based on the closing price of our common stock as reported on the date of grant on the primary stock exchange on which our common stock is listed.

Stock-Based Compensation

We recognize stock-based compensation expenses related to equity classified awards based on the grant-date fair value of the awards. For awards that vest based only on continued service, we recognize stock-based compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the awards. For stock options with performance vesting conditions, we recognize stock-based compensation using an accelerated attribution method when it is probable the performance condition will be achieved. The grant date fair value of stock options that contain service or performance conditions is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The grant date fair value of restricted stock awards that contain service vesting conditions is estimated based on the fair value of the underlying shares on grant date.

The fair value of liability classified awards such as stock appreciation rights awards, is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model on the date of grant and is remeasured each reporting period through the date of settlement. Our liability classified stock appreciation rights are subject to both service and performance conditions. The performance condition, which includes either an initial public offering or a change in control event, is not considered achievable for accounting purposes until it happens. As a result, we will not recognize any compensation for these awards until it is probable that the performance condition will be met.

Determining the fair value of stock-based awards requires judgment. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model is used to estimate the fair value of stock options that have service and/or performance vesting conditions. The assumptions used in these option-pricing models require the input of subjective assumptions and are as follows:

•

Fair value—Please refer to the section titled “Fair value of Common Stock” above for the valuation methodology of our common stock.

•

Expected volatility—Expected volatility is based on historical volatilities of a publicly traded peer group based on daily price observations over a period equivalent to the expected term of the awards.

•

Expected term—For stock options with only service vesting conditions, the expected term is determined using the simplified method, which estimates the expected term using the contractual life of the option and the vesting period.

•

Risk-free interest rate—The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield of treasury bonds with a maturity that approximates the expected term of the awards.

•

Expected dividend yield—The dividend yield is based on our current expectations of dividend payouts. We currently have no history or expectation of paying cash dividends on our common stock.

The determination of stock-based compensation cost is inherently uncertain and subjective and involves the application of valuation models and assumptions requiring the use of judgment. If factors change and different assumptions are used, stock-based compensation expense and net losses could be significantly different.

We will continue to use judgment in evaluating the expected volatility and expected terms utilized in our stock-based compensation expense calculations on a prospective basis. As we continue to accumulate additional data related to our common stock, we may refine our estimates, which could materially impact our future stock-based compensation. See Note 12 to our audited financial statements in Part II, Item 8. in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for information concerning certain of the specific assumptions we used in applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the estimated fair value of our stock options granted in the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

During 2025, we recorded $3.9 million in stock-based compensation. There was an insignificant reduction in net sales associated with stock appreciation rights issued to a customer and no reduction in net sales associated with warrants issued to a customer during the year ended December 31, 2025.

During 2024, we recorded $1.8 million in stock-based compensation and a $0.7 million reduction in net sales associated with warrants issued to customers.

As of December 31, 2025, there was $9.4 million in unrecognized compensation related to unvested stock-based compensation arrangements which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.8 years.

See the sections titled “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements” and “—Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted” in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8. in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional details.

Emerging growth company

We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” may take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. Therefore, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to use the extended transition period under the JOBS Act. Accordingly, our financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of public companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily the result of fluctuations in raw material prices, interest rates, and inflation.

Raw Materials Pricing Risk

Our profitability is dependent on, among other things, our ability to anticipate and react to commodity and packaging costs. The prices of ingredients we use in the process of manufacturing our products are subject to many factors beyond our control, such as the number and size of farms that provide ingredients, the vagaries of these farming businesses, including poor harvests due to adverse weather conditions, natural disasters and pestilence and changes in national and world economic conditions.

In addition, we purchase some ingredients and other materials offshore. The price and availability of such ingredients and materials is affected by political events or other conditions in these countries or tariffs or trade wars. New or increased tariffs or resultant trade wars could have an adverse effect on us or on our suppliers, distributors or customers, which could lead to significant increases in the costs of materials and services, resulting in product cost increases and reduced consumer demand.

A hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in the weighted-average cost of these commodities and raw materials would have resulted in an increase or decrease to cost of goods sold of approximately $6.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 or $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. We seek to mitigate the impact of raw materials cost increases by negotiating pricing agreements and by a combination of cost savings initiatives and efficiencies and price increases to our customers.

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to interest rate risk on amounts drawn under our Nonconvertible Debt, which incurs interest at variable rates. See Part II, Item 7. “Management’s Discussion of Results of Operation and Financial Condition —Liquidity and Capital Resources—Nonconvertible Debt.” Following completion of the IPO in February 2026, we used a portion of the proceeds therefrom to repay all outstanding amounts under the Nonconvertible Debt.

Our interest-earning instruments, including cash held in on demand interest-bearing accounts, also carry a degree of interest rate risk.

We do not believe that a hypothetical 100 basis points change in interest rates would have a material effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes and have not used any derivative financial instruments to manage our interest rate risk exposure.

Inflation Risk

Inflation generally affects us by increasing our cost of labor, logistics, commodities, packaging and manufacturing costs. We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. If our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Once Upon a Farm, PBC:

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Once Upon a Farm, PBC and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, convertible preferred stock and stockholders' deficit, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's 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. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 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 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 financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

ONCE UPON A FARM, PBC

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

nature of business

Once Upon a Farm, PBC (the “Company”) is a Delaware public benefit corporation, which began operations in 2014. The Company is engaged in the manufacturing; distribution; marketing and related sale of innovative, nutrient-packed, delicious food for babies and kids of on-the-go parents (under the brand name, Once Upon a Farm). The Company's products include Pouches and snacks. Sales of the Company’s products are made primarily throughout the United States. The Company's headquarters is in Berkeley, California.

Initial Public Offering

On February 9, 2026, the Company completed its initial public offering (the "IPO") of 7,631,537 shares of its common stock at the public offering price of $18.00 per share, plus an additional 1,649,581 shares of common stock at the same public offering price pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters' option to purchase additional shares. We received approximately $139.3 million in proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and offering costs. In connection with the IPO, certain of the Company's stockholders (the "Selling Stockholders") sold 3,365,672 shares of common stock. The Company did not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares by the Selling Stockholders.

Immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, all outstanding Convertible Notes (See Note 9, Convertible Notes) were converted into their respective classes of convertible preferred stock, which then immediately converted into 2,819,512 shares of common stock. Further, all outstanding shares of the Company’s convertible preferred stock were converted into 21,779,817 shares of the Company’s common stock at the applicable conversion ratio then in effect (see Note 17, Subsequent Events) and the related carrying value of $102.0 million was reclassified from temporary equity to additional paid in capital. Subsequent to the closing of the IPO, there were no shares of convertible preferred stock outstanding. The carrying values of the notes, together with accrued interest, and related derivative liability, which was remeasured to fair value on the IPO date, were reclassified to additional paid-in capital. Additionally, upon the consummation of the IPO, all of the then-outstanding convertible preferred stock warrants issued to a customer were automatically net exercised into 438,983 shares of common stock and the convertible preferred stock warrants issued in connection with a credit facility were net exercised into 103,896 shares of common stock. The consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2025, including share and per share amounts, do not give effect to the IPO or the conversion of the convertible preferred stock and Convertible Notes into common stock and the net exercise of the warrants into common stock, as the IPO and such conversions were completed subsequent to December 31, 2025.

Forward Stock Split and Change in Par Value

On January 23, 2026, the Company effected an 18.7-for-1 forward stock split (the “Forward Stock Split”) of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock, as well as stock options to purchase shares of common stock, restricted stock awards and stock appreciation rights. In connection with the Forward Stock Split, the Company changed the par value of its capital stock from $0.001 to $0.0001 and amended its certificate of incorporation to authorize the issuance of up to 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share. Accordingly, all share and per share amounts related to common stock for all periods presented in the accompanying financial statements and notes thereto have been adjusted retroactively, where applicable, to reflect the effect of the Forward Stock Split. As the number of all outstanding convertible preferred stock remained unchanged, the conversion ratios for each series of the Company’s convertible preferred stock were retroactively adjusted as a result of the Forward Stock Split.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include all

the accounts of the wholly-owned subsidiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, net realizable value of inventory; revenue recognition, including variable consideration for sales promotions and discounts; the valuation of stock-based awards, including the valuation of common stock; useful lives and valuation of long-lived assets; intangible assets and goodwill; valuation of derivative liability; valuation of preferred stock warrant liabilities; and provision for income taxes, including related reserves. Management periodically evaluates its estimates, which are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Segment Reporting

Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which discrete financial information is available that is regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The Company’s CODM reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. To date, the Company has viewed its operations and manages its business as one operating and reportable segment, which is also a single reporting unit.

Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability, or an exit price, in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

The Company measures fair value based on a three-level hierarchy of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about current market conditions. The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs, where available, and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The three-level hierarchy of inputs is as follows:

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3—Inputs that are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

To the extent that the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The carrying amounts reflected in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The fair values of the outstanding term loan and revolving line of credit approximate their carrying amounts as the term loan and revolving line of credit bear variable rates that approximate the market interest rate.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents consist of short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less from the purchase date. Cash equivalents consist primarily of amounts invested in money market accounts and are stated at fair value.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated net of allowance for expected credit losses and trade discounts. The allowance for expected credit losses is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of accounts. The Company's expected credit losses is based on its historical collection experience, current and future economic market conditions and a review of the current aging status and financial condition of its customers. The Company had no allowance for expected credit losses as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company did not incur any bad debts for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of demand deposit accounts, money market accounts and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents, which may, at times, exceed federally insured limits, with financial institutions of high credit standing. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has not experienced any losses on its deposit accounts and money market accounts. As of December 31, 2025, the Company does not believe there is significant financial risk from nonperformance by the issuers of the Company’s deposit accounts and money market accounts.

Customers with 10% or more of the Company’s net sales or accounts receivable consist of the following:


	Accounts Receivable						Net Sales
	As of December 31,						For the Year Ended December 31,
	2025			2024			2025			2024			2023
Customer A		31	%		21	%		23	%		18	%		19	%
Customer B	**				13	%		12	%		15	%		17	%
Customer C		14	%		15	%		12	%		10	%	**
Customer D		12	%		20	%	**			**			**
Customer E		11	%	**				14	%	**			**

** Represents less than 10% of accounts receivable or net sales as applicable

Deferred Offering Costs

The Company capitalized certain legal, professional accounting and other third-party fees that are directly associated with its IPO as deferred offering costs until such offering is consummated. As of December 31, 2025, there was $14.0 million of deferred offering costs capitalized and included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets. There were no deferred offering costs capitalized as of December 31, 2024. Upon closing of the IPO in February 2026, all deferred offering costs were offset against the IPO proceeds and reclassified to additional paid-in capital.

Inventory

Inventory consists primarily of raw materials, packaging and finished goods and is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value determined using the first-in, first-out cost method. Inventory cost includes product costs, inbound freight-in, import duties and other landed costs. Provisions for slow-moving, excess or obsolete inventories are recorded when required to reduce inventory values to their estimated net realizable values based on historical usage and forecasted demand.

The Company’s purchases from its two largest suppliers accounted for 20%, 23% and 29% of total purchases for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are calculated utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives for owned assets and the shorter of the expected useful life and the related lease terms for leasehold improvements. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the balance sheets and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations in the period realized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

The estimated useful lives of property and equipment as of December 31, 2025, are as follows:


Machinery and equipment		2-10 years
Purchased software		2-5 years
Leasehold improvements
