Product Revenue

 

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those goods. When our ingredients and finished products are shipped, with control being transferred at the shipping point, is the point in time at which we recognize the related revenue.

 

We generally expense sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses. Customers’ deposits, deferred revenue and other receipts are deferred and recognized when the revenue is realized and earned. Cash payments to customers are classified as reductions of revenue in our statements of operations. For select customers the Company may pay volume rebates which are variable in nature due the amount the select customer will take. In 2025 one customer earned a volume rebate of $95,000. In 2024 one customer earned a volume rebate of $35,000.

 

As part of the sales process, it is common for the Company to receive customer deposits. These deposits are typically held for less than a year and do not result in a financing component to the sales. The customer deposits are recognized as revenue when the Company ships the finished goods to the customer.

 

The Company will for some customers arrange for the shipping of the finished goods. Revenues and costs associated with the shipment of the finished goods are recorded separately within product revenue and cost of revenue, respectively, on the consolidation statement of operations. With regard to revenue recognition, shipping activities that occur prior to the customers’ obtaining control of the goods are not a promised service to the customer, but rather activities to fulfill the Company’s promise to transfer the goods. As such, these activities are not deemed a performance obligation requiring allocation of the transaction price. Similarly, shipping activities that occur after the customers’ obtaining control of the goods are, as a matter of policy, also not a promised service to the customer, but rather an activity to fulfill the Company’s promise to transfer the good.

About Revenue Disclosures

Revenue disclosures under ASC 606 explain how a company identifies performance obligations, allocates transaction prices, and determines when revenue is recognized. This section is essential for understanding whether reported revenue reflects genuine economic activity or aggressive accounting choices. Analysts examine the mix of point-in-time versus over-time recognition, which directly affects revenue timing and comparability.

Key signals: rising contract liabilities (deferred revenue) suggest strong future revenue visibility, while declining contract assets may indicate slowing project milestones. Watch for variable consideration estimates — rebates, returns, and performance bonuses that require management judgment. Significant changes in disaggregated revenue by geography or product line can reveal shifting business mix before it appears in headline numbers. Compare revenue growth against contract liability growth to assess sustainability, and scrutinize any changes in the timing of recognition that coincide with earnings pressure.
