Certain statements in this report, including information incorporated by reference, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements reflect current views about future events and financial performance based on certain assumptions.

Words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “approximate,” “predict,” “forecast,” “project,”, “future”, or “likely”, or the negative or other variation of such words, and similar expressions may identify a statement as a forward-looking statement. Any statements that refer to projections of our future financial performance, our anticipated growth and trends in our business, our goals, strategies, focus and plans, and other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including statements expressing general optimism or pessimism about future operating results, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this report may include statements about:

	•	our ability to develop market acceptance for and increase sales of new products, develop relationships with new customers and maintain or improve existing customer relationships;
	•	future financial and operating results, including projections of net sales, revenue, income or loss, net income or loss per share, profit margins, expenditures, liquidity, and other financial items;
	•	the sufficiency of our available cash, cash equivalents, and potential cash flows from our operations to fund our working capital and capital expenditure needs through the next 12 months and longer;
	•	the future adequacy and intended use of our facilities, including recommencing operations at our manufacturing facility in Carlsbad, California after a temporary closing in October 2023;
	•	future customer orders and the timing thereof;
	•	our ability to maintain or increase our patent and trademark licensing revenues;
	•	our ability to attract and retain sufficient labor to successfully execute our business strategies and achieve our goals and objectives;
	•	inventory levels, including the adequacy of quality raw material and other inventory levels to meet future customer demand;
	•	our ability to price our products to achieve profit margin targets, especially in the current volatile raw material and labor environment;
	•	our ability to protect our intellectual property;
	•	future economic and political conditions;
	•	our ability to improve operating efficiencies, manage costs and business risks, and improve or maintain profitability;
	•	currency exchange rates and their effect on our results of operations (including amounts that we may reclassify as earnings), the availability of foreign exchange facilities, our ability to effectively hedge against foreign exchange risks and the extent to which we may seek to hedge against such risks;
	•	the outcome of litigation, regulatory and tax matters we may become involved in, the costs associated with such matters and the effect of such matters on our business and results of operations;
	•	sources, availability and quality of raw materials, including the limited number of suppliers of beta-alanine meeting our quality requirements;
	•	potential manufacturing and distribution channels, product returns, and potential product recalls;
	•	the impact of external factors on our business and results of operations, especially, for example, variations in quarterly net sales from seasonal and other external factors;
	•	our ability to operate within the standards set by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs);
	•	the adequacy of our financial reserves and allowances;
	•	the impact of accounting pronouncements and our adoption of certain accounting guidance; and
	•	other assumptions described in this Report underlying or relating to any forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements in this Report speak only as of the date of this Report based on information available to us at that time and caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to certain future events, risks, and uncertainties that are or may be outside of our control. When considering forward-looking statements, you should carefully review the risks, uncertainties and other cautionary statements in this Report as they identify certain important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements. These factors include, among others, the risks described under Item 1A of Part I of our fiscal 2023 Annual Report, as well as in other reports and documents we have filed and will file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

A. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and with applicable rules and regulations. Pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted. In management’s opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows have been included and are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or for any future periods.

You should read the financial statements and these notes, which notes are an integral part of the financial statements, together with our audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 (“2023 Annual Report”). The accounting policies used to prepare the financial statements included in this Report are the same policies described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in our 2023 Annual Report unless otherwise noted below.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

We did not adopt any accounting pronouncements during the three months ended December 31, 2023.

Recently Issued Accounting and Regulatory Pronouncements

In October 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-06, "Disclosure Improvements - Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative". ASU 2023-06 clarifies or improves disclosure and presentation requirements on various disclosure areas, including the statement of cash flows, earnings per share, debt, equity, and derivatives. The amendments will align the requirements in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) with the SEC’s regulations. The amendments in this ASU will be effective on the date the related disclosures are removed from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K by the SEC, and will not be effective if the SEC has not removed the applicable disclosure requirement by June 30, 2027. Early adoption is prohibited. As we are currently subject to these SEC requirements, this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures". This amendment improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. This ASU will be adopted in our first quarter of fiscal 2025. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard; however, we do not expect it to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures". The amendments in this update address investor requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. This update also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. This ASU will be adopted in our first quarter of fiscal 2026. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard; however, we do not expect it to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net (Loss) Income per Common Share

We compute net (loss) income per common share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, and diluted net income per common share using the additional dilutive effect of all dilutive securities. The dilutive impact of unvested restricted shares account for the additional weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for our diluted net income per common share computation. We calculated basic and diluted net (loss) income per common share as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

	*Three Months Ended*					*Six Months Ended*
	*December 31,*					*December 31,*
	*2023*			*2022*		*2023*			*2022*
Numerator
Net (loss) income	$	(3,070	)	$	1,813	$	(3,765	)	$	2,866

Denominator
Basic weighted average common shares outstanding		5,850			5,866		5,850			5,893
Dilutive effect of restricted stock		—			7		—			15
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding		5,850			5,873		5,850			5,908

Basic net (loss) income per common share	$	(0.52	)	$	0.31	$	(0.64	)	$	0.49

Diluted net (loss) income per common share	$	(0.52	)	$	0.31	$	(0.64	)	$	0.49

We exclude the impact of restricted stock from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share in periods where we have a net loss or when their inclusion would be antidilutive. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we excluded 238,682 shares of unvested restricted stock. During the six months ended December 31, 2023, we excluded 236,155 shares of unvested stock. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2022, we excluded 50,377 shares of unvested restricted stock.

Revenue Recognition

We record revenue based on a five-step model which includes: (1) identifying a contract with a customer; (2) identifying the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determining the transaction price; (4) allocating the transaction price among the performance obligations; and (5) recognizing revenue as each of the various performance obligations are satisfied.

Revenue is measured as the net amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for fulfilling one or more performance obligations. We identify purchase orders from customers as contracts. The amount of consideration expected to be received and revenue recognized includes estimates of variable consideration, including estimates for early payment discounts and volume rebates. Such estimates are calculated using historical averages adjusted for any expected changes due to current business conditions and experience. We review and update these estimates at the end of each reporting period and the impact of any adjustments is recognized in the period the adjustments are identified. In assessing whether collection of consideration from a customer is probable, we consider both the customer's ability and intent to pay that amount of consideration when it is due. Payment of invoices is due as specified in the underlying customer agreement, which is typically 30 days from the invoice date. Invoices are generally issued on the date of transfer of control of the products ordered to the customer.

Revenue is recognized at the point in time that each of our performance obligations is fulfilled, and control of the ordered products is transferred to the customer. This transfer occurs when the product is shipped, or in some cases, when the product is delivered to the customer.

We recognize revenue in certain circumstances before delivery to the customer has occurred (commonly referred to as bill-and-hold transactions). Products sold under bill-and-hold arrangements are recorded as revenue when risk of ownership has been transferred to the customer, but the product has not shipped due to a substantive reason, typically at the customer’s request. The product must be separately identified as belonging to the customer, ready for physical transfer to the customer, and we cannot have the ability to redirect the product to another customer.

We provide early payment discounts to certain customers. Based on historical payment trends, we expect that these customers will take advantage of these early payment discounts. The cost of these discounts is reported as a reduction to the transaction price. If the actual discounts differ from those estimated, the difference is also reported as a change in the transaction price. We require prepayment from certain customers. We record any payments received in advance of contract fulfillment as a contract liability and they are classified as customer deposits on the consolidated balance sheet.

Contract liabilities and revenue recognized were as follows (in thousands):

Except for product defects, no right of return exists on the sale of our products. We estimate returns based on historical experience and recognize a returns liability for any estimated returns. As of December 31, 2023, we have no estimated returns liability.

We currently own certain U.S. patents, and each patent’s corresponding foreign patent applications. All of these patents and patent rights relate to the ingredient known as beta-alanine marketed and sold under our CarnoSyn® and SR CarnoSyn® trade names. We recorded beta-alanine raw material sales and royalty and licensing income as a component of revenue in the amount of $2.2 million during the three months ended December 31, 2023, and $3.9 million during the six months ended December 31, 2023. We similarly recorded $1.5 million during the three months ended December 31, 2022, and $2.8 million during the six months ended December 31, 2022. These royalty income and raw material sale amounts resulted in royalty expense paid to the original patent holders from whom NAI acquired its patents and patent rights. We recognized royalty expense as a component of cost of goods sold in the amount of approximately $93,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2023, and $182,000 during the six months ended December 31, 2023. We recorded approximately $78,000 of royalty expense during the three months ended December 31, 2022, and $105,000 during the six months ended December 31, 2022.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Board of Directors approved our current omnibus equity incentive plan that became effective January 1, 2021 (the “2020 Plan”), which was approved by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders on December 4, 2020. Under the 2020 Plan, we may grant nonqualified and incentive stock options, restricted stock grants, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, and other stock-based awards to employees, non-employee directors and consultants.

We did not have any option activity or options outstanding during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, or December 31, 2022.

We did not grant any restricted stock shares during the three months ended December 31, 2023. We granted a total of 15,000 restricted stock shares to certain new members of our management team during the six months ended December 31, 2023. We did not grant any restricted stock shares during the three and six months ended December 31, 2022. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, no restricted stock shares were forfeited. Our net loss included stock-based compensation expense with the vesting of prior restricted stock grants of approximately $0.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and $0.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Our net income included stock based compensation expense in connection with the vesting of prior restricted stock grants of approximately $0.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, and $0.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023.

Deferred Compensation Plan

Effective July 16, 2020, the Board of Directors approved and adopted a Non-Qualified Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”). Pursuant to the Incentive Plan, the Human Resources Committee and the Board of Directors may make deferred cash payments or other cash awards (“Awards”) to directors, officers, employees and eligible consultants of NAI (“Participants”). These Awards are made subject to conditions precedent that must be met before NAI is obligated to make the payment. The purpose of the Incentive Plan is to enhance the long-term stockholder value of NAI by providing the Human Resources Committee and the Board of Directors the ability to make deferred cash payments or other cash awards to encourage Participants to serve NAI or to remain in the service of NAI, or to assist NAI to achieve results determined by the Human Resources Committee or the Board of Directors to be in NAI's best interest.

The Incentive Plan authorizes the Human Resources Committee or the Board of Directors to grant to, and administer, unsecured and deferred cash Awards to Participants and to subject each Award to whatever conditions are determined appropriate by the Human Resources Committee or the Board of Directors. The terms of each Award, including the amount and any conditions that must be met to be entitled to payment of the Award are set forth in an Award Agreement between each Participant and NAI. The Incentive Plan provides the Board of Directors with the discretion to set aside assets to fund the Incentive Plan although that has not been done to date.

No deferred cash awards were granted or forfeited during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022.

E. Leases

We currently lease our Vista, California and Lugano, Switzerland product manufacturing and support facilities.

On July 18, 2023, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to our Vista, California manufacturing facilities lease. The Fourth Amendment extends the term of the lease by an additional ten years and five months commencing April 1, 2024. The amended lease covering two buildings and approximately 162,000 square feet will result in an increase in base rent to $1.50 per square foot, after five free months of base rent beginning at the commencement of the extended term. NAI intends to construct substantial improvements to the facilities including but not limited to installation of an approximately $2.3 million solar electrical generating system on both buildings, and other substantial improvements. Pursuant to the Fourth Amendment, the Landlord will reimburse NAI for up to $1.1 million of these tenant improvements to the buildings. Our lease liability and Right of Use asset were both increased by approximately $25.9 million as a result of this lease extension effective on the date that the Fourth Amendment was executed.

Our leases are classified as operating leases. Substantially all our operating leases are comprised of payments for the use of manufacturing and office space. We have no leases classified as finance leases. As of December 31, 2023, the weighted average remaining lease term for our operating leases was 9.9 years and the weighted average discount rate for our operating leases was 5.89%. As of June 30, 2023, the weighted average remaining lease term for our operating leases was 5.3 years and the weighted average discount rate was 4.12%.

F. Debt

On May 24, 2021, we entered into a new credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A (“Wells Fargo”) to extend the maturity for our working line of credit from November 1, 2022, to May 24, 2024. This credit facility provides total lending capacity of up to $20.0 million and allows us to use the credit facility for working capital as well as potential acquisitions. On August 18, 2021, we entered into an amendment of our credit facility with Wells Fargo. The amended credit facility added a $10.0 million term loan to the existing $20.0 million credit facility and permitted us to use the $10.0 million term loan as part of the $17.5 million purchase consideration for the acquisition of our manufacturing and warehouse property in Carlsbad, California. The amended credit agreement also increased the allowed capital expenditures from $10.0 million to $15.0 million for fiscal 2022 (exclusive of the amount paid for the acquisition of the new Carlsbad property noted above). In addition, the revised credit notes now reflect a change in the interest rate reference from LIBOR to Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR). The Credit Agreement was amended and a new Revolving Line of Credit Note, and Security Agreement were entered into. A Term Note and real property security documents were added to secure the Term Note by the Carlsbad property.

Subsequently we entered into a Second and Third Amendment that changed certain limits on our use of the line of credit. In the second quarter of fiscal 2024 we failed to meet three continuing requirements for our line of credit and were not in compliance at the end of our second quarter. As of February 13, 2024, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to our credit facility with Wells Fargo. The Fourth Amendment waived all prior instances of non-compliance, decreased our total borrowing capacity on the line of credit to $12.5 million, increased the interest rate on borrowings under the line of credit to 2.25% from 1.29% above the daily simple SOFR rate, modified our continuing compliance requirements, and reduced the uses we can fund with the line of credit.

Table of Contents

Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, as amended by the Fourth Amendment, borrowings are subject to eligibility requirements including maintaining (i) a ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth of not greater than 1.50 to 1.0 at any time; (ii) limits our losses to a decreasing amount over the next three quarters, with net income after taxes of not less than $1.00 by September 30, 2024; (iii) a rolling 4-quarter fixed charge coverage ratio not less than 1.25 to 1.0 as of December 31, 2024 and each quarter thereafter. The Fourth Amendment includes a limitation on the amount of capital expenditures that can be made in a given fiscal year, with such limitation set at $6.5 million, requires us to suspend share repurchase and dividend activity, and includes an availability reserve of 10% that will be in place until we return to profitability. Any amounts outstanding under the line of credit will bear interest at a fixed or fluctuating interest rate as elected by us from time to time. Any amounts outstanding under the line of credit must be paid in full on or before the maturity date which remains at May 23, 2025. Amounts outstanding that are subject to a fluctuating interest rate may be prepaid at any time without penalty. Amounts outstanding that are subject to a fixed interest rate may be prepaid at any time in minimum amounts of $100,000, subject to a prepayment fee equal to the sum of the discounted monthly differences between payment under a fixed rate versus payment under the variable rate for each month from the month of prepayment through the month in which the then applicable fixed rate term matures. There is an unused commitment fee of 0.25% required as part of the line of credit, and an origination fee of 1% we paid upon execution of the Fourth Amendment.

The Term Note used as part of the purchase consideration of our powder processing and warehouse property in Carlsbad, California referenced above, was for the original principal amount of $10.0 million, and is a seven-year term note with payments fully amortized based on a twenty-five year assumed term. Installment payments under this loan commenced October 1, 2021, and continue through August 1, 2028, with a final installment consisting of all remaining amounts due to be paid in full on September 1, 2028. Amounts outstanding on this note during the term of the agreement bear interest equal to 1.8% above the SOFR rolling 30-day average. In connection with this term loan, we entered into an interest rate swap with Wells Fargo that effectively fixes our interest rate on our term loan at 2.4% for the first three years of the term of the note.

Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by our accounts receivable and other rights to payment, general intangibles, inventory, equipment and fixtures. We also have credit approval with Wells Fargo Bank, which allows us to hedge foreign currency exposures up to 30 months in the future. We also have credit approval with Bank of America which allows us to hedge foreign currency exposures up to 24 months in the future.

As of December 31, 2023, we had $9.4 million outstanding under the Term Note used in August 2021 for the purchase of our Carlsbad, California powder processing and warehouse property.

On December 31, 2023, we were not in compliance with the financial covenants related to net income requirements as noted in item (iii) above and the fixed charge coverage ratio as noted in item (iv) above. On February 13, 2024, we entered into a fourth amendment to our credit facility with Wells Fargo. The fourth amendment modifies the financial covenant requirements such that item (iii) noted above has been eliminated through the end of fiscal 2024 and replaced with maximum loss requirements of $3.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 and $2.0 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 and a requirement to maintain net income after taxes not less than $1.00 on a quarterly basis beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The amendment also eliminates the fixed charge coverage ratio requirements described in item (iv) above through the quarter ending September 30, 2024 and resuming with the quarter ending December 31, 2024. The amended credit agreement also decreased the allowed capital expenditures from $7.5 million to $6.5 million for fiscal 2024 and beyond and requires us to suspend share repurchase and dividend activity. All other financial covenants remain unmodified. The amended credit agreement also modifies our borrowing capacity to a monthly asset-based borrowing base calculation with a maximum borrowing capacity of $12.5 million, which includes an availability reserve of 10% that will be in place until we return to profitability. The amendment also modifies our interest rate to be equal to 2.25% above the daily simple SOFR rate and includes a 0.25% unused commitment fee payable quarterly in arrears along with an up-front amendment fee of 1.0% of the maximum borrowing base.

As of December 31, 2023, we had zero outstanding on our credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank.

H. Segment Information

Our business consists of two segments for financial reporting purposes. The two segments are identified as (i) private-label contract manufacturing, which primarily relates to the provision of private-label contract manufacturing services to companies that market and distribute nutritional supplements and other health care products, and (ii) patent and trademark licensing, which primarily includes direct raw material sales and royalty income from our license and supply agreements associated with the sale and use of beta-alanine under our CarnoSyn® and SR CarnoSyn® trade names.

We evaluate performance of these segments based on a number of factors. The primary performance measures for each segment are net sales and income or loss from operations before the allocation of certain corporate level expenses. Operating income or loss for each segment does not include corporate general and administrative expenses, interest expense and other miscellaneous income and expense items. Corporate general and administrative expenses include, but are not limited to human resources, corporate legal, finance, information technology, and other corporate level related expenses, which are not allocated to any segment. Transfers of raw materials between segments are recorded at cost. The accounting policies of our segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note A above and in the consolidated financial statements included in our 2023 Annual Report.

I. Income Taxes

To determine our quarterly provision for income taxes, we use an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual income, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions to which we are subject. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rate from quarter to quarter. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, as an income tax expense.

Our effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2023, was 19.9% and our effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2022, was 20.7%. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2023, was 20.1% and our effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2022, was 20.5%. Our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, differ from the fiscal 2023 U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the foreign tax rate differential and forecasted research and development tax credits.

We record valuation allowances to reduce our deferred tax assets to an amount we believe is more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, there was no change to our valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets.

J. Treasury Stock

We purchase shares under a stock repurchase plan (“Repurchase Plan”) authorized by the Board of Directors. The total authorized repurchase amount is $18.0 million and as of December 31, 2023, we had approximately $716,000 remaining available under the Repurchase Plan. Under the Repurchase Plan, we may, from time to time, purchase shares of our common stock, depending upon market conditions, in open market or privately negotiated transactions. The Fourth Amendment to the Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo effective February 13, 2024, prohibits most stock repurchases (see Footnote F). As a result, until that restriction is modified or removed the Company does not intend to purchase its shares other than its longstanding practice of purchasing shares from its employees in exchange for paying the employees’ withholding requirements upon vesting of restricted stock held by the employee.

There were no stock repurchases for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023.

Stock repurchases for the three months ended December 31, 2022, were as follows:

	*Shares*		*Average Cost*		*Total Cost (in thousands)*
Shares purchased under Repurchase Plan		68,570	$	8.19	$	562
Shares acquired from employees for restricted stock vesting		—		—		—
Total		68,570			$	562

Stock repurchases for the six months ended December 31, 2022, were as follows:

	*Shares*		*Average Cost*		*Total Cost (in thousands)*
Shares purchased under Repurchase Plan		115,365	$	9.18	$	1,059
Shares acquired from employees for restricted stock vesting		—		—		—
Total		115,365			$	1,059

Stock repurchase costs include commissions and fees.

Shares acquired from employees for restricted stock vesting may be returned to us by the related employees and in return we pay each employee’s required tax withholding resulting from the vesting of restricted shares. The valuation of the shares acquired and thereby the number of shares returned to us is calculated based on the closing share price on the date the shares vested. We did not receive any shares associated with the vesting of employee restricted stock during either of the three month periods ending December 31, 2023, or 2022.

K. Derivatives and Hedging

We are exposed to gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relating to forecasted product sales denominated in foreign currencies and to other transactions of NAIE, our foreign subsidiary. As part of our overall strategy to manage the level of exposure to the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, we may use foreign exchange contracts in the form of forward contracts. To the extent we enter into such contracts, there can be no guarantee any such contracts will be effective hedges against our foreign currency exchange risk.

As of December 31, 2023, we had forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges primarily to protect against the foreign exchange risks inherent in our forecasted sales of products at prices denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. These contracts are expected to be settled through September 2024. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, we record the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative in accumulated other comprehensive income (“OCI”) as a separate component of stockholders’ equity and subsequently reclassify these amounts into earnings in the period during which the hedged transaction is recognized in earnings.

For foreign currency contracts designated as cash flow hedges, hedge effectiveness is measured using the spot rate. Changes in the spot-forward differential are excluded from the test of hedge effectiveness and are recorded currently in earnings as revenue. We measure effectiveness by comparing the cumulative change in the hedge contract with the cumulative change in the hedged item. No hedging relationships were terminated as a result of ineffective hedging for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022.

We monitor the probability of forecasted transactions as part of the hedge effectiveness testing on a quarterly basis. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, we did not have any losses or gains related to the ineffective portion of our hedging instruments.

As of December 31, 2023, the notional amounts of our foreign exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges were approximately $18.1 million (EUR 16.3 million). As of December 31, 2023, a net loss of approximately $0.1 million, offset by approximately $26,000 of a deferred tax benefit, related to derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges was recorded in OCI. It is expected that the entire amount will be reclassified into earnings in the next 12 months along with the earnings effects of the related forecasted transactions.

For foreign currency contracts not designated as cash flow hedges, changes in the fair value of the hedge are recorded directly to foreign exchange gain or loss in other income in an effort to offset the change in valuation of the underlying hedged item. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, we entered into forward contracts in order to hedge foreign exchange risk associated with our lease liability at NAIE, which is denominated in Swiss Francs (CHF). As of December 31, 2023, the notional amounts of our foreign exchange contracts not designated as cash flow hedges were approximately $13.1 million (CHF 11.3 million).

We are exposed to interest rate fluctuations related to our $10.0 million Term Note with Wells Fargo, which carries a variable interest rate of 1.80% above the SOFR rolling 30-day average. To manage our exposure to this variable rate, on August 23, 2021, we entered into a floored interest rate swap that fixes our all-in rate on this loan to 2.4% for the first three years of the term loan. Fluctuations in the relation of our contractual swap rate to current market rates are recorded as an asset or liability with an offset to OCI at the end of each reporting period. Interest expense is adjusted for the difference between the actual SOFR spread and the swap contractual rate such that our effective interest expense for each period is equal to our hedged rate of 2.4%.

L. Contingencies

From time to time, we become involved in various investigations, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These matters may relate to product liability, employment, intellectual property, regulatory, contract or other matters. The resolution of these matters as they arise may be subject to various uncertainties and, even if such claims are without merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. While unfavorable outcomes are possible, based on available information, we currently do not believe the resolution of these matters will result in a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial condition, or results of operations. However, a settlement payment or unfavorable outcome could be greater than we currently anticipate and if so, could adversely impact our results of operations. Our evaluation of the likely impact of these actions could change in the future and we could have unfavorable outcomes we do not expect.

Israel-Hamas War

In October 2023, armed conflict escalated between Israel and Hamas. Management is monitoring the conflict in Israel and Gaza and any broader economic effects from the crisis. Israel accounts for a small portion of our global net sales, but we also source multiple raw materials that come from Israel. While we do not anticipate this conflict will have a significant impact on our net sales, we are currently communicating with the customers and suppliers that may be impacted by this conflict, and we are evaluating options for alternative ingredient sources or holding safety stock of impacted materials to limit the affect that this conflict may have on our ability to obtain the ingredients sourced from this region. There are further concerns regarding consumer purchasing and consumption behavior, increases in global shipping expenses, greater volatility in foreign exchange and interest rates, and other unforeseen business disruptions due to the current global geopolitical tensions, including and relating to this new conflict between Israel and Hamas and the continued conflict in Ukraine. We will continue to evaluate impacts of the conflict on our customers, suppliers, employees, and operations.

M. Subsequent Event

As of February 13, 2024, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to our credit facility with Wells Fargo. Among other changes the Fourth Amendment waived all prior instances of non-compliance, decreased our total borrowing capacity on the line of credit to $12.5 million, increased the interest rate on borrowings under the line of credit to 2.25% from 1.29% above the daily simple SOFR rate, modified our continuing compliance requirements, reduced the uses we can fund with the line of credit, decreased the allowed capital expenditures from $7.5 million to $6.5 million for fiscal 2024 and beyond, and requires us to suspend share repurchase and dividend activity.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis is intended to help you understand our financial condition and results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023. You should read the following discussion and analysis together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included under Item 1 in this Report, as well as the risk factors and other information included in our 2023 Annual Report and other reports and documents we file with the SEC. Our future financial condition and results of operations will vary from our historical financial condition and results of operations described below based on a variety of factors.

Executive Overview

The following overview does not address all of the matters covered in the other sections of this Item 2 or other items in this Report nor does it contain all of the information that may be important to our stockholders or the investing public. You should read this overview in conjunction with the other sections of this Item 2 and this Report.

Our primary business activity is providing private-label contract manufacturing services to companies that market and distribute vitamins, minerals, herbal and other nutritional supplements, as well as other health care products, to consumers both within and outside the U.S. Historically, our revenue has been largely dependent on sales to two or three private-label contract manufacturing customers and subject to variations in the timing of such customers’ orders, which in turn is impacted by such customers’ internal marketing programs, supply chain management, entry into new markets, new product introductions, the demand for such customers’ products, and general industry and economic conditions. Our revenue also includes raw material sales and royalty and licensing revenue generated from license and supply agreements with third parties, granting them the right to use our patents, trademarks and other intellectual property in connection with the distribution and use of the ingredient known as beta-alanine sold under our CarnoSyn® and SR CarnoSyn® trademarks.

A cornerstone of our business strategy is to achieve long-term growth and profitability and to diversify our sales base. We have sought and expect to continue to seek to diversify our sales by developing relationships with additional, quality-oriented, private-label contract manufacturing customers, and commercializing our patent estate through sales of beta-alanine under our CarnoSyn® and SR CarnoSyn® trade names, royalties from license agreements, and potentially additional contract manufacturing opportunities with licensees.

During the six months ended December 31, 2023, our net sales were 31% lower than in the six months ended December 31, 2022. Private-label contract manufacturing sales decreased 33% primarily due to reduced orders from several of our larger customers associated with their efforts to reduce excess on-hand inventories, partially offset by increased shipments from other existing customers and shipments to new customers. Revenue concentration for our largest private-label contract manufacturing customer as a percentage of total net sales for the six months ended December 31, 2023, was 41%, and revenue concentration for our largest private-label contract manufacturing customer as a percentage of total net sales for the six months ended December 31, 2022, was 36%. We expect our annualized fiscal 2024 revenue concentration for our largest customer to be flat to slightly higher as compared to our revenue concentration for our largest customer in fiscal 2023.

During the six months ended December 31, 2023, patent and trademark licensing revenue increased 40% to $3.9 million, compared to revenue of $2.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022. The increase in patent and trademark licensing revenue during the six months ended December 31, 2023, was primarily due to an increase in orders from existing customers and increased royalty income, partially offset by increased volume rebates.

We continue to invest in research and development for our SR CarnoSyn® sustained release delivery system. We believe SR CarnoSyn® may provide a unique opportunity within the growing Wellness and Healthy Aging markets. We believe our recent efforts to refine our formulations and product offerings will be positively received and result in significant opportunity for increased SR CarnoSyn® sales.

Table of Contents

To protect our CarnoSyn® business and our patents, trademarks and other intellectual property, we incurred legal expenses of approximately $0.1 million during the first six months of both fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023. Our legal expense associated with our CarnoSyn® business has remained relatively low as we have not had any active litigation in recent periods, and our current run-rate of expenses is primarily related to maintenance of our patent and trademark estate. Our ability to maintain or further increase our beta-alanine royalty and licensing revenue will depend in large part on our ability to develop a market for our sustained release form of beta-alanine marketed under our SR CarnoSyn® trademark, maintain or expand our patent rights, obtain the raw material beta-alanine when and in the amounts needed, expand distribution of beta-alanine to new and existing customers, and continued compliance by third parties with our license agreements and our patent, trademark and other intellectual property rights. During the remainder of fiscal 2024, we will continue our sales and marketing activities to consumers, customers, potential customers, and brand owners on multiple platforms to promote and reinforce the features and benefits of utilizing CarnoSyn® and SR CarnoSyn® beta-alanine.

We experienced a loss from operations during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023. This was primarily due to a slowdown in sales across our private-label contract manufacturing segment. On August 16, 2023, we announced the temporary closure of our high-speed powder processing facility in Carlsbad, California due to excess inventory on hand at one of our largest customers and their efforts to rebalance supply and demand. We now expect this facility will re-open and our prior level of operations will resume late in our fourth fiscal quarter of 2024 to support anticipated deliveries of new orders to this customer in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. However, there can be no assurance this customer will resolve its supply and demand issues in the timeframe expected, what their future purchases may be, or what level of other business we may acquire that will utilize this facility.

Subject to the change in timing of anticipated new orders from this customer, and our overall sales forecast, we now anticipate we will experience a net loss in the second half of fiscal 2024 and an overall net loss in fiscal 2024.

During fiscal 2024, we plan to continue our focus on:

	•	Leveraging our state-of-the-art, certified facilities to increase the value of the goods and services we provide to our highly valued private-label contract manufacturing customers, and assist us in developing relationships with additional quality-oriented customers;

	•	Expanding the commercialization of our beta-alanine patent estate through raw material sales, developing a new sales distribution channel under the Wellness and Healthy Aging category for our sustained release form of beta-alanine marketed under our SR CarnoSyn® trademark, exploiting new contract manufacturing opportunities, license and royalty agreements, and protecting our proprietary rights; and

	•	Improving operational efficiencies and managing costs and business risks to improve profitability.

Impact of COVID-19 on Our Business

The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in significant economic disruption and may have some effect on our business in the future. Our facilities, located both in the United States and Europe, maintained operations throughout the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, however, there can be no assurance our facilities would continue to operate without interruption in any future event.

Discussion of Critical Accounting Estimates

We have identified the following as our most critical accounting estimates, which are those that are most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results, and that require management’s most subjective and complex judgments. Information regarding our other significant accounting estimates and policies is disclosed in Note 1 of Item 1 of this report and as disclosed in the 2023 Annual Report.

Revenue Recognition — Revenue is measured as the net amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for fulfilling one or more performance obligations. For certain contracts with volume rebates and discounts, our estimates of future sales used to assess the volume rebate and discount estimates are subject to a high degree of judgement and may differ from actual sales due to, among other things, changes in customer orders and raw material availability.

Results of Operations

The results of our operations for the three and six months ended December 31 were as follows (dollars in thousands):

	Three Months Ended									Six Months Ended
	December 31,									December 31,
	2023			2022			% Change			2023			2022			% Change

Table of Contents

Private-label contract manufacturing net sales decreased 44% during the three months ended December 31, 2023, and 33% for the six months ended December 31, 2023, when compared to the same periods in the prior year. The decrease in net sales during the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, was primarily due to reduced orders from several of our larger customers associated with their efforts to reduce excess on-hand inventories, partially offset by increased shipments from other existing customers and shipments to new customers.

Net sales from our patent and trademark licensing segment increased 48% during the three months ended December 31, 2023, and 40% during the six months ended December 31, 2023, when compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase in patent and trademark licensing revenue during the three months ended December 31, 2023, was primarily due to an increase in orders from existing customers, increased royalty income, and favorable volume rebate activity. The increase in patent and trademark licensing revenue during the six months ended December 31, 2023, was primarily due to an increase in orders from existing customers and increased royalty income, partially offset by increased volume rebates.

The change in gross profit margin for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, was as follows:

	Three Months Ended			Six Months Ended

Contract manufacturing⁽¹⁾		(16.7	)%		(9.5	)%
Patent and trademark licensing⁽²⁾		3.5	%		1.9	%
Total change in gross profit margin		(13.2	)%		(7.6	)%

Private-label contract manufacturing gross profit margin as a percentage of consolidated net sales decreased 16.7 percentage points during the three months ended December 31, 2023, when compared to the comparable prior year period. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales for private-label contract manufacturing during the three months ended December 31, 2023, is primarily due to lower sales, unfavorable sales mix, and increased per unit manufacturing costs. For the six months ended December 31, 2023, contract manufacturing gross profit margin as a percentage of consolidated net sales decreased 9.5 percentage points as compared to the comparable prior year period, primarily due to lower sales, unfavorable sales mix, and increased per unit manufacturing costs. Per unit manufacturing costs were negatively impacted by reduced sales and increased costs associated with labor rates, increased rent and utilities costs.

Patent and trademark licensing gross profit margin as a percentage of consolidated net sales increased 3.5 percentage points during the three months ended December 31, 2023, and 1.9 percentage points for the six months ended December 31, 2023, when compared to the comparable prior year periods. The increase in margin contribution during the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was primarily due to increased patent and trademark licensing net sales in total and as a percentage of total consolidated net sales, as patent and trademark licensing historically provides higher profit margins than our private-label contract manufacturing business. Additionally, patent and trademark licensing profit margins increased due to higher average sales price and increased royalty income. For the six months ended December 31, 2023, patent and trademark licensing margin contribution increased when compared to the comparable period in the prior fiscal year, primarily due to increased net sales both in total and as a percentage of total consolidated net sales.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately $0.2 million, or 5%, during the three months ended December 31, 2023, and were consistent at $7.6 million during the first six months of fiscal 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.

Other expense increased $0.1 million during the three months ended December 31, 2023, and increased $0.2 million during the six months ended December 31, 2023, when compared to the comparable periods during the prior year. The increase in both the three and six month periods is primarily associated with increased expenses related to our CHF balance sheet hedge, foreign currency rate fluctuations, and interest expense related to usage of our line of credit.

Our income tax (benefit) expense changed to reflect a benefit of $0.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to an expense of $0.5 million in the same period in fiscal 2023, and a benefit of $1.0 million for the first six months of fiscal 2024, as compared to an expense of $0.7 million for the first six months of fiscal 2023. The change in tax amount is primarily due to recognition of a pretax loss in the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to pretax income in the same periods in fiscal 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources are cash flows provided by operating activities and the availability of borrowings under our credit facilities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $4.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $3.7 million in the comparable period during the prior fiscal year.

At December 31, 2023, changes in accounts receivable, consisting of amounts due from our private-label contract manufacturing customers and our patent and trademark licensing activities, used $3.4 million in cash compared to providing $7.2 million of cash during the comparable six month period in the prior year. The increase in cash used in accounts receivable during the six months ended December 31, 2023, primarily resulted from the timing of sales and related collections. Days sales outstanding was 27 days during the six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to 30 days for the prior year period.

Changes in inventory provided $10.1 million in cash during the six months ended December 31, 2023, compared to using $3.6 million in the comparable prior year period. The change in cash related to inventory during the six months ended December 31, 2023, was primarily related to the difference in the amount and timing of orders and anticipated sales as compared to same period in the prior year. Changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities used $0.3 million in cash during the six months ended December 31, 2023, compared to using $3.1 million during the six months ended December 31, 2022. The change in cash flow activity related to accounts payable and accrued liabilities was primarily due to the timing of inventory receipts and payments.

Cash used in investing activities in the six months ended December 31, 2023, was $1.7 million compared to $11.6 million in the comparable prior year period. The increase during the six months ended December 31, 2022, in capital purchases was associated with retrofitting our new powder manufacturing and warehouse facility. Construction on this new facility was completed during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. Capital equipment purchase activity during the first six months of fiscal 2024 was primarily for manufacturing equipment and solar power generation equipment for our Vista and Carlsbad, California production facilities.

Cash used by financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2023, was $0.1 million compared to $1.2 million used in the comparable prior year period. The decrease in cash used by financing activities is primarily due to zero stock repurchase activity during the first six months of fiscal 2024 compared to $1.1 million in stock repurchases during the same period in fiscal 2023.

At December 31, 2023, we had no outstanding balances due on our line of credit with $20.0 million available, and we owed $9.4 million on the term loan borrowed as part of the purchase of our Carlsbad, California manufacturing facility in August 2021. At June 30, 2023, we also had no outstanding balances due and $20.0 million available in connection with our line of credit.

As of February 13, 2024, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to our credit facility with Wells Fargo. Among other changes the Fourth Amendment waived all prior instances of non-compliance, decreased our total borrowing capacity on the line of credit to $12.5 million, increased the interest rate on borrowings under the line of credit to 2.25% from 1.29% above the daily simple SOFR rate, modified our continuing compliance requirements, reduced the uses we can fund with the line of credit, decreased the allowed capital expenditures from $7.5 million to $6.5 million for fiscal 2024 and beyond, and requires us to suspend share repurchase and dividend activity.

As of December 31, 2023, we had $16.6 million in cash and cash equivalents. Of these amounts, $14.8 million of cash and cash equivalents were held by NAIE. Overall, we believe our available cash, cash equivalents, potential cash flows from operations, and our credit facility will be sufficient to fund our current working capital needs and capital expenditures through at least the next 12 months.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2023, we did not have any off-balance sheet debt nor did we have any transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent obligations) or other relationships with any unconsolidated entities or other persons that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, capital resources, or significant components of revenue or expenses material to investors.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements are discussed in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included under Item 1, Note A. of this Report. Other than those pronouncements, we are not aware of any other pronouncements that materially affect our financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain certain disclosure controls and procedures as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. They are designed to help ensure that material information: (1) is gathered and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, in a manner that allows for timely decisions regarding required disclosures; and (2) recorded, processed, summarized, reported and filed with the SEC as required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and within the time periods specified by the SEC.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial and accounting officer), evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2023. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective for their intended purpose as of December 31, 2023.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarterly period ended December 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we become involved in various investigations, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These matters may relate to intellectual property, product liability, employment, tax, regulation, contract or other matters. The resolution of these matters as they arise will be subject to various uncertainties and, even if such claims are without merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. While unfavorable outcomes are possible, based on available information, we currently do not believe the resolution of these matters, even if unfavorable, will result in a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial condition, or results of operations. However, a settlement payment or unfavorable outcome could adversely impact our results of operations. Our evaluation of the likely impact of these actions could change in the future and we could have unfavorable outcomes we do not expect. An unexpected settlement expense or an unexpected unfavorable outcome of a matter could adversely impact our results of operations.

As of February 13, 2023, neither NAI nor NAIE were a party to any material pending legal proceeding nor was any of our property the subject of any material pending legal proceeding. We are often involved in up to several matters in the ordinary course of our business.

There is no assurance NAI will prevail in litigation matters or in similar proceedings NAI or others may initiate or that litigation expenses will not be greater than anticipated.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

When evaluating our business and future prospects you should carefully consider the risks described under Item 1A of our 2023 Annual Report, as well as the other information in our 2023 Annual Report, this Report and other reports and documents we file with the SEC. If any of the identified risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be seriously harmed. In that event, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or a portion of the value of your investment in our common stock.

Geopolitical Instability and Conflict in the Region

Our business operations may be adversely affected by ongoing geopolitical instability and conflict in Ukraine or the Middle East, particularly the Israel-Hammas conflict. These regional tensions may lead to increased political, economic, and security risks, including disruptions in the global supply chain, fluctuations in energy prices, and financial market volatility. Such uncertainties could impact our ability to operate efficiently, access markets, and secure resources. Our financial performance and results may be influenced by these external factors, and we cannot predict the future impact of geopolitical events on our business with certainty.
