ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
On August 23, 2024, Stran Loyalty Solutions, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (the “Purchaser” or “Stran Loyalty Solutions”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Secured Party Sale Agreement, dated as of August 23, 2024 (the “Sale Agreement”), between Stran Loyalty Solutions and Sallyport Commercial Finance, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Secured Party”), pursuant to which Stran Loyalty Solutions agreed to purchase, on an as-is basis, all of the rights and interests of Gander Group, in and to substantially all of the assets of Gander Group (the “Gander Group Assets”) from Secured Party as a private sale pursuant to Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (the “Gander Group Transaction”).
The Gander Group Transaction was treated as a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. Stran Loyalty Solutions is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and Gander Group Louisiana, LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Stran Loyalty Solutions.
In addition to selling branded products, the Company offers clients custom sourcing capabilities; a flexible and customizable e-commerce solution for promoting branded merchandise and other promotional products, managing promotional loyalty and incentives, print collateral, and event assets, order and inventory management, and designing and hosting online retail popup shops, fixed public retail online stores, and online business-to-business service offerings; creative and merchandising services; warehousing/fulfillment and distribution; print-on-demand; kitting; point of sale displays; and loyalty and incentive programs.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, and we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to state fairly the information in the following unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.
The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:
The carrying value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company maintained deposits in four banks that exceeded the federal insured deposit limit of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company had one major customer to which sales accounted for 16.5% of the Company’s revenues. The Company had accounts receivable from this customer amounting to 10.5% of the total accounts receivable balance. The Company had an additional customer with an accounts receivable balance amounting to 18.1% of the total accounts receivable balance as of March 31, 2025.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company had one major customer to which sales accounted for approximately 20% of the Company’s revenues. The Company had accounts receivable from this customer amounting to 10.6% of the total accounts receivable balance.
The Company’s contract assessment and approval varies based on whether the customer requests a one-time sale or a long-term contract. Customers with long-term contracts require signed Master Sales Agreements, while one-time sales contracts may be approved via email, electronic signature, or verbally. Once the contract is identified and approved, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within the contract to determine whether each promised good or service is a performance obligation. The Company identifies each piece of promotional product as an individual performance obligation based on the following fact pattern. Customers can benefit from each item of promotional product produced on its own. Each piece of promotional product does not significantly modify or customize other promotional products and are not highly interdependent or interrelated with each other. The Company can, and frequently does, break portions of contracts into separate shipments to meet Customer demands. As such, each piece of promotional product is considered a separate and distinct performance obligation.
The transaction price for the majority of the Company’s sales can be clearly identified in a significant majority of the contracts due to an observable selling price. The transaction price is then allocated to the performance obligation(s), i.e. promotional product. The agreements include clearly identified prices.
The Company recognizes revenue when or as performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of a promised good or service to a customer. Stran evaluates transfer of control primarily from the customer’s perspective. Considering the transaction from the customer’s perspective reduces the risk that revenue is recognized for activities that do not transfer control of a good or service to the customer. Management determines, at contract inception, whether control of a good or service transfers to a customer over time or at a point in time. The assessment of whether control transfers over time or at a point in time is critical to the timing of revenue recognition.
The Company evaluates our accounts receivable through a continuous process of assessing our portfolio on an individual customer and overall basis. This process consists of a thorough review of historical collection experience, current aging status of the customer accounts and the financial condition of our customers. The Company also considers the economic environment of our customers, both from a marketplace and geographic perspective, in evaluating the need for an allowance. Based on our review of these factors, we establish or adjust allowances for specific customers. Credit losses can vary substantially over time and the process involves judgment and estimation that require a number of assumptions about matters that are uncertain. Accordingly, our results of operations can be affected by adjustments to the allowance due to actual write-offs that differ from estimated amounts. See Note P, “Credit Losses,” to our financial statements included in this report for more information.
To determine whether goodwill is impaired, annually or more frequently if needed, the Company performs a multi-step impairment test. Impairment testing is conducted at the reporting unit level. The Company first has the option to assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. Under ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, the qualitative assessment requires the consideration of factors such as recent market transactions, macroeconomic conditions, and changes in projected future cash flows or planned revenue or earnings of the reporting unit as potential indicators when determining the need for a quantitative assessment of impairment. The Company may also elect to skip the qualitative testing and proceed directly to the quantitative testing. When performing quantitative testing, the Company first estimates the fair values of its reporting unit using a combination of an income and market approach. To determine fair values, the Company is required to make assumptions about a wide variety of internal and external factors. Significant assumptions used in the impairment analysis include financial projections of free cash flow (including significant assumptions about operations including the rate of future revenue growth, capital requirements, and income taxes), long-term growth rates for determining terminal value, and discount rates. Comparative market multiples are used to corroborate the results of the discounted cash flow test. These assumptions require significant judgement. The single step is to determine the estimated fair value of the reporting unit and compare it to the carrying value of the reporting unit, including goodwill. If we conclude based on our qualitative assessment that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we then measure the fair value of the reporting unit and compare its fair value to its carrying value (Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test). The majority of the inputs used in the discounted cash flow model are unobservable and thus are considered to be Level 3 inputs. The inputs for the market capitalization calculation are considered Level 1 inputs.
12. Uncertainty in Income and Other Taxes - The Company adopted the standards for Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which required the Company to report any uncertain tax positions and to adjust its financial statements for the impact thereof. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company determined it had uncertain tax positions of $3,211 and $3,141, respectively. The Company believes the impact will not be material as it will be able to utilize net operating losses to offset a majority of the risk. The Company recorded a nominal amount of interest expense which is included as part of income tax expense.
For each of its segments, the CODM uses segment revenue, gross margin and segment operating income in the annual budgeting and forecasting process. The CODM considers budget-to-actual variances on a monthly basis for profit measures when making decisions about allocating capital and personnel to the segments. The CODM also uses segment gross margin for evaluating product pricing and segment operating income to assess the performance for each segment by comparing the results and return on assets of each segment with one another. The CODM uses segment gross margin and segment operating income in determining the compensation of certain employees.
During the periods presented, we reported our financial performance based on the following segments: Stran & Company, Inc. and Stran Loyalty Solutions, LLC.
2023-09 – Income Taxes (Topic 740)
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2023-09, which amends the guidance on income tax disclosures. This update aims to improve the transparency and usefulness of income tax disclosures by requiring entities to provide more detailed information about the nature and effects of income tax uncertainties, the components of income tax expense, and the effective tax rate reconciliation. Additionally, the ASU mandates enhanced disclosures about deferred tax assets and liabilities, including the valuation allowance and the impact of tax law changes.
The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the timing and impacts of adoption of this ASU.
2024-01 – Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718)
In March 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2024-01, which clarifies the accounting for profits interest awards. This update provides guidance on determining whether a profits interest or similar award falls within the scope of ASC 718 (Compensation—Stock Compensation) or other guidance. The ASU aims to ensure consistency and transparency in the accounting for these awards by providing clearer criteria and illustrative examples.
The guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2025. The standard did not have a material impact of the Company’s financial statements.
2024-03 - Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosure
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires the disaggregation, in the notes to the financial statements, of certain cost and expense captions presented on the face of the Company’s Statement of Operations, to provide enhanced transparency to investors. The update may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2024-03 will have on its disclosures.
