Now I will turn the call over to CEO of Barfresh Food Group, Mr. Riccardo Delle Coste. Please go ahead, sir.

Thank you, and good afternoon, everyone. On the call today, I will review our third quarter and first 9 months ended September 30, 2021, results and discuss our outlook for the fourth quarter. Revenue for the third quarter of 2021 increased 173% to $1.9 million compared to $708,000 for the same period last year, and up 48% compared to $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2021. The sequential and year-over-year increase in revenue is the result of increased orders for our Twist & Go product in the school channel as well as the gradual return in sales of our single-serve and bulk products compared to the COVID-19 affected quarter last year. For the first 9 months of 2021, revenue increased 118% to $4.2 million compared to $1.9 million in the same period of 2020. This is already our best revenue year in the company's history. I'm really proud of our ability to achieve record third quarter revenue despite the fact that we were working against significant supply chain challenges due to manufacturing constraints and raw material wait times. We had an additional $200,000 of planned revenue in the third quarter that we were not able to capture as a result of our manufacturer's inability to supply us with product due to labor and raw material shortages. Additionally, while we entered this school year in double the number of locations from last year, we were not able to service all these locations in the third quarter. We made the strategic decision not to pursue orders from some of the larger school districts, in order to preserve those relationships and not risk having to cancel their orders due to the supply challenges. Therefore, our results this quarter are not a true reflection of our robust school pipeline. However, we expect to…

The first question comes from Matt Bullock with Maxim Group.

I was hoping you could just provide a little bit of an update on the single-serve and bulk products segment, maybe at a high level where they are in terms of pre-COVID levels? And where you expect them to trend going forward through 2022?

Yes, sure. So the single-serve has actually started to come back. It's actually probably come back a little bit more so than the bulk product. Primarily in summer was the strongest return. Mainly the businesses were starting to open back up again, and the single-servings actually help that process, the bulk products have taken a little bit of a slower path to recovery back. The reason for that being some of the accounts that we're in, the bulk product on itself is a bulk service item, which means that it's a high capacity, high volume throughput where people are generally congregated. So even though some of the customers have come back for their general business, the areas of the business that are particularly serving our product may not have reopened yet, right? And that's -- I'll give you a couple of examples. Let's say, a military base, for example, where they've got the troops are going by and doing self-service. The self-service area on a communal touch point may not be opened up yet, but the single-serve grab-and-go area is. So we are starting to see more and more of those locations open up. There is a little -- there was a little bit of product in the pipeline as well from the previous selling season. So we are seeing those areas of the business to pick back up again.

Okay. Excellent. That's excellent. And then I guess pivoting to Twist & Go, can you just provide a little bit more context around the progress you've had regarding retail distribution? And if any of those supply chain disruptions have a kind of pushed that out at all or maybe, what are those partnerships might look like once the deal is reached?

Yes. So we are still -- it is still a work in progress. We are getting amazing traction in the education channel, and we're really getting amazing feedback from the consumers and their parents, too. We're probably getting messages every other day from a parent that's tried the product in a school, and from the children that have tried the product, and they go back and they bring it back to their parents, and they say they love the product, and the parents are reaching out to us asking us where they can buy the product in the grocery store. So it's definitely something that we're working on. We haven't got any definitive plans to announce just yet, other than we are pursuing it, and it is in the pipeline, and we are actively working on it from a grocery store, a retail planning proposition. Does that make sense?

Absolutely. My last question would be, is there a time line we should expect for the 10-Q to be filed?

10-Q should have been filed by now.

Our next question comes from Mike Donnelly with Ibex Investors.

I think it will be completed? Is it going to be by the end of the year? Just a little bit more color on the uplifting would be helpful.

Sorry, Mike, you cut out. I didn't catch all that question.

You mentioned that you submitted an application in July to uplift to a national exchange. Can you give us some more color as to when you hope it to be completed? Is it by the end of the year? Is it Q1? A – Riccardo Delle Coste: Yes. Look, I mean, I think everyone – this is something that’s been experienced by everybody. There’s considerable delays in everything that’s been going on. We submitted the application some time ago. I can tell you that we have completed everything that was requested of us in terms of submitting documents, et cetera. It is – we believe we’ve met all the financial requirements, that’s hence why we did the capital raise. We believe it’s very close now. We are in contact with them. I wouldn’t be able to – it’s possible that it will happen before the end of the year. It’s very possible. But it may tick over into the next year, but it is very possible that it could happen before the end of the year.

Our next question comes from William Gregozeski with Greenridge Global.

Riccardo, how much revenue was from the education channel in the third quarter as a percent of your total?

It's probably about a little bit over half to 2/3 right now. But I think something to keep in mind is that the education channel is across multiple fronts, number one, both the bulk and Twist & Go product. But we're also just scratching the surface, right? I mean we're still dealing with the effects of COVID, both in the bulk product and the Twist & Go product. And our hope and our real aim is to be doing serious multiples from where we are now. I mean we're not really -- we haven't been dealing with a lot of the largest of the accounts, purely for supply chain challenge issues. So we really are just scratching the surface from where we're at, even within these channels.

Okay. And then you've mentioned that not distributing to all the schools you've signed to date. What percent that you've signed in terms of just number of schools or size of schools by students? Are you distributing into now versus what you're unable to because of the supply chain?

Well, I think it's not necessarily that we sign them up, right? There's no essential contract per se. But what ends up happening is we end up having the product available for them to put on their menus, and we agree a deal structure for them to include it as part of their menu plan. We're simply avoiding any of the large accounts and really negotiating and giving pricing for those larger accounts because volume that's required in a very short period of time for when they place the menu, it just becomes too challenging for the business to manage given the current environment of the supply chain issues. And they're quite extensive. Everything from trucking and shipping to getting the raw materials at all. Let alone the actual price increases that are coming along with that. So it's really difficult to give you an exact percentage of those that we're not, as it relates to the rest of the business because some of those accounts could be as much as our total business right now. I mean there's some significant accounts out there that we've been working with that are very large. And it could -- one account could be as big as what we're doing right now in our total business. So I think that it's -- there's a lot of exciting stuff around the corner for us, particularly when the supply chain challenges ease, and we're obviously really looking forward to that. And we're trying to plan as much as we can. -- but we do need to still deal with the realities of what's going on out there.

Okay. So that really just applies to what would be new schools, not existing like the LA school district or something like that, correct?

Yes. So that's probably a good example where we haven't supplied them during this period. And that's a great example of an account that hasn't been supplied during this period. And that's a real volume, it's real -- there's a significant volume requirement there for an account like that. And that probably less expensive prices as well. So we are definitely guiding the business towards the more profitable accounts that are less -- have less of a requirement on the supply chain.

Okay. And last question was, what's the percent of Twist & Go in the third quarter? And where do you see that as a percent of total sales a year from now, if it's even possible to project that?

Yes. A year from now would be very difficult to project also because we’ve got the other parts of the business, and we also expect the other parts of our business to come back. And particularly with the national accounts et cetera, coming on strong, we obviously have some expectations around that for next year. So right now, we’re probably sitting at about 60%, 65%, maybe a little bit more with the Twist & Go as it stands.

This concludes the question-and-answer session. The conference has now concluded. Thank you for attending today's presentation. You may now disconnect.
