Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1. Basis of Financial Statements

 

In the opinion of Greystone Logistics, Inc. (“Greystone”), the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments and reclassifications, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly its financial position as of August 31, 2022 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three months ended August 31, 2022 and 2021. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2022 and the notes thereto included in the Form 10-K/A for such period. The results of operations for the three months ended August 31, 2022 and 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

 

The consolidated financial statements of Greystone include its wholly owned subsidiaries, Greystone Manufacturing, L.L.C. (“GSM”) and Plastic Pallet Production, Inc. (“PPP”), and the variable interest entity, Greystone Real Estate, L.L.C. (“GRE”) for the period from June 1, 2022, through July 29, 2022. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

 

GRE owns the manufacturing facilities which are occupied by Greystone and is wholly owned by a member of Greystone’s Board of Directors. Effective July 29, 2022, GRE paid off its mortgage note payable, and in conjunction with the Company’s refinancing described in Note 6, GRE was removed from the cross-collateralization agreement. Following these transactions Greystone was no longer determined to be the primary beneficiary of GRE. Accordingly, GRE was deconsolidated from the Greystone consolidated financial statements as of July 29, 2022, resulting in the recognition of a gain in the amount of $569,997. Subsequent to the deconsolidation, the Company entered into a new lease agreement with the related party and recorded right of use assets and liabilities for the new lease, see Note 7.

 

Note 2. Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted-average effect of all common shares issued and outstanding and is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares used in the basic earnings per share calculation plus the number of common shares that would be issued assuming exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding.

Restated and Amended Loan Agreement between Greystone and IBC

 

On July 29, 2022, Greystone and GSM (collectively “Borrowers”) and IBC entered into an Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (“IBC Restated Loan Agreement”) that provides for consolidation of certain term loans and a renewed revolver loan.

 

The IBC term loans make equal monthly payments of principal and interest in such amounts sufficient to amortize the principal balance of the loans over the remaining lives. The monthly payments of principal and interest on the IBC term loans may vary due to changes in the prime rate of interest. Currently, the aggregate payments for the IBC term loans are approximately $251,000 per month.

 

The IBC Restated Loan Agreement provides for IBC to make to Greystone (i) a term loan in the amount of $7,854,708, Term Loan A, to consolidate all existing term loans in the aggregate amount of $2,669,892 with Lender, extend credit in the amount of $3,271,987 to pay off a note payable to Robert B. Rosene, Jr. and extend additional credit to fund the purchase in the amount of $1,912,829 of the equipment subject to the iGPS Logistics, LLC, leases and (ii) an advancing term loan facility, Term Loan B, whereby Greystone may obtain advances up to the aggregate amount of $7,000,000 (items i and ii referred to as “Term Loans”) (iii) a renewal of the revolving loan with an increase of $2,000,000 to an aggregate principal amount of $6,000,000 (the “Revolving Loan”), subject to borrowing base limitations. As of August 31, 2022, Greystone’s available revolving loan borrowing capacity was $1,225,000.

The IBC Restated Loan Agreement includes customary events of default, including events of default relating to non-payment of principal and other amounts owing under the IBC Restated Loan Agreement from time to time, inaccuracy of representations, violation of covenants, defaults under other agreements, bankruptcy and similar events, the death of a guarantor, certain material adverse changes relating to a Borrower or guarantor, certain judgments or awards against a Borrower, or government action affecting a Borrower’s or guarantor’s ability to perform under the IBC Restated Loan Agreement or the related loan documents. Among other things, a default under the IBC Restated Loan Agreement would permit IBC to cease lending funds under the IBC Restated Loan Agreement and require immediate repayment of any outstanding notes with interest and any unpaid accrued fees.

 

The IBC Restated Loan Agreement is secured by a lien on substantially all assets of the Borrowers. Warren F. Kruger, President and CEO, and Robert B. Rosene, Jr. have provided limited guaranties of the Borrowers’ obligations under the IBC Restated Loan Agreement. Mr. Kruger’s guarantee is limited to 32.4% of all debt obligations to IBC. Mr. Rosene’s limited guaranty is the lesser of (i) $3,500,000 less all amounts paid on the principal amount of the loans after the date of the agreement excluding payments on the revolver and (ii) the amount owed to IBC of the loans outstanding from time to time including accrued interest and fees.

 

Loan Agreement with First Interstate Bank, formerly Great Western Bank

 

On August 23, 2021, Greystone entered into a loan agreement with First Interstate Bank (“FIB Loan Agreement”) to include prior commercial loans and subsequent loans. GSM is a named guarantor under the FIB Loan Agreement.

 

The FIB Loan Agreement includes customary events of default, including events of default relating to non-payment of principal and other amounts owing under the FIB Loan Agreement from time to time, inaccuracy of representations, violation of covenants, defaults under other agreements, bankruptcy and similar events, certain material adverse changes relating to a Borrower, certain judgments or awards against a Borrower, or guarantor’s ability to perform under the FIB Loan Agreement. Among other things, a default under the FIB Loan Agreement would permit FIB to cease lending funds under the FIB Loan Agreement and require immediate repayment of any outstanding notes with interest and any unpaid accrued fees.

 

The FIB Loan Agreement is secured by a mortgage on one of Greystone’s warehouses.

   August 31, 2022   May 31, 2022 
Non-cancellable financing leases  $1,743,923   $2,163,043 
Less: Current portion   (1,492,365)   (1,630,895)
Non-cancellable financing leases, net of current portion  $251,558   $532,148 

 

Greystone and an unrelated private company entered into three lease agreements for certain production equipment with a total cost of approximately $6.9 million which were effective February 24, 2018, August 2, 2018 and December 21, 2018, respectively, with five-year terms and a capitalized interest rate of 7.4%. Each of the lease agreements include a bargain purchase option to acquire the production equipment at the end of the lease term. The leased equipment is principally used to produce pallets for the private company. Lease payments are made as a credit on the sales invoice at the rate of $3.32 for each pallet produced and shipped from the respective leased equipment. The estimated aggregate monthly rental payments are approximately $155,000. The rent payments can vary each month depending on the quantity of pallets produced from each machine. The lease agreements provide for minimum monthly lease rental payments based upon the total pallets sold over a specified amount not to exceed the monthly productive capacity of the leased machines.

 

Effective December 28, 2018, Yorktown purchased certain production equipment from Greystone at net book value of $968,168 and entered into a lease agreement with Greystone for the equipment with a monthly rent of $27,915 for the initial thirty-six months and $7,695 for the following twelve months and maturing December 27, 2022. The lease agreement has a $10,000 purchase option at the end of the lease.

 

The production equipment under the non-cancelable financing leases as of August 31, 2022 and May 31, 2022 was as follows:

 

   August 31, 2022  

May 31, 2022

Amortization of the carrying amount of $218,914 and $252,967 was included in depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended August 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Operating Leases

 

Greystone recognized a lease liability for each lease based on the present value of remaining minimum fixed rental payments, using a discount rate that approximates the rate of interest for a collateralized loan over a similar term. A right-of-use asset is recognized for each lease, valued at the lease liability. Minimum fixed rental payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease as costs and expenses on the consolidated statements of income. Variable and short-term rental payments are recognized as costs and expenses as they are incurred.

 

11

 

 

Greystone has three non-cancellable operating leases for (i) equipment with a fifty-two month term and a forty-eight month term and a discount rate of 5.40% and (ii) office space on a sixty month term and a discount rate of 5.0%. All of these leases are single term with constant monthly rental rates. As discussed in Note 1, effective August 1, 2022, Greystone and GRE entered into a non-cancellable ten-year lease agreement with a five-year extension for which Greystone recorded a right of use asset and liability based on the present value of the properties in the amount of $5,516,006, using a term of one hundred eighty (180) months and a discount rate of 6.00%.

Note 8. Deferred Revenue

 

Advances from customers pursuant to a contract for the sale of plastic pallets is recognized as deferred revenue. Revenue is recognized by Greystone as pallets are shipped to the customer which totaled $5,015,520 and $1,184,725 during the three months ended August 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Customer advances received during the three months ended August 31, 2022 and 2021 totaled $-0- and $60,500, respectively. The unrecognized balance of deferred revenue as of August 31, 2022 and May 31, 2022, was $313,527 and $5,329,047, respectively.

 

Note 9. Revenue and Revenue Recognition

 

Greystone’s principal product is plastic pallets produced from recycled plastic resin. Sales are primarily to customers in the continental United States of America. International sales are made to customers in Canada and Mexico which totaled approximately $125,000 and $184,000 during the three months ended August 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Greystone’s customers include stocking and non-stocking distributors and direct sales to end-user customers. Sales to the following categories of customers for the three months ended August 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, were as follows:

  

Category  2022   2021 
End user customers   77%   71%
Distributors   23%   29%

 

Note 10. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The following methods and assumptions are used in estimating the fair-value disclosures for financial instruments:

 

Debt: The carrying amount of notes with floating rates of interest approximate fair value. Fixed rate notes are valued based on cash flows using estimated rates of comparable notes. The carrying amounts reported on the balance sheets approximate fair value.

 

Note 11. Concentrations, Risks and Uncertainties

 

Greystone derived approximately 77% and 71% of its total sales from three customers during the three months ended August 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The loss of a material amount of business from one or more of these customers could have a material adverse effect on Greystone.

 

Greystone purchases damaged pallets from its customers at a price based on the value of the raw material content in the pallet. A majority of these purchases, totaling $226,232 and $158,365 during the three months ended August 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, is from one of its major customers.

 

Note 12. Commitments

 

As of August 31, 2022, Greystone had commitments totaling $5,053,390 toward the purchase of production equipment.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

Results of Operations

 

General to All Periods

 

The unaudited consolidated statements include Greystone Logistics, Inc., and its two wholly owned subsidiaries, Greystone Manufacturing, L.L.C. (“GSM”) and Plastic Pallet Production, Inc. (“PPP”). Greystone also consolidates the variable interest entity, Greystone Real Estate, L.L.C. (“GRE”) for the period from June 1, 2022 through July 29, 2022. Effective July 29, 2022, the relationship of Greystone as a beneficiary of GRE ceased to exist. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

References to fiscal year 2023 refer to the three months ended August 31, 2022. References to fiscal year 2022 refer to the three months ended August 31, 2021.

 

Sales

 

Greystone’s primary focus is to provide quality plastic pallets to its existing customers while continuing its marketing efforts to broaden its customer base. Greystone’s existing customers are primarily located in the United States and engaged in the beverage, pharmaceutical and other industries. Greystone has generated, and plans to continue to generate, interest in its pallets by attending trade shows sponsored by industry segments that would benefit from Greystone’s products. Greystone hopes to gain wider product acceptance by marketing the concept that the widespread use of plastic pallets could greatly reduce the destruction of trees on a worldwide basis. Greystone’s marketing is conducted through contract distributors, its President and other employees.

 

14

 

 

Personnel

 

Greystone had full-time equivalents of approximately 202 and 264 regular employees and 64 and 19 temporary employees as of August 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Full-time equivalent is a measure based on time worked.

 

Three Months Ended August 31, 2022 Compared to Three Months Ended August 31, 2021

 

Sales

 

Sales for fiscal year 2023 were $18,953,599 compared to $14,774,399 in fiscal year 2021 for an increase of $4,179,200, or 28%. Increases in pallet pricing accounted for approximately 13% and an increase in the types of pallets sold toward higher-end units accounted for approximately 15%.

 

Greystone had three customers that accounted for approximately 77% and 71% of sales in fiscal years 2023 and 2022, respectively. Greystone is not able to predict the future needs of these major customers and will continue its efforts to grow sales through the addition of new customers developed through Greystone’s marketing efforts.

 

Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales in fiscal year 2023 was $16,490,453, or 87% of sales, compared to $13,312,305, or 90% of sales, in fiscal year 2022. The decrease in cost of sales to sales in fiscal year 2023 was primarily the result of improvements in productivity. Management anticipates further improvements in the ratio of cost of sales to sales as the cost of raw materials are expected to show declines in the remainder of fiscal year 2023.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,105,591, or 5.8% of sales, in fiscal year 2023 compared to $1,218,604, or 8.2% of sales, in fiscal year 2022 for a decrease of $113,013. The decrease in fiscal year 2023 from fiscal year 2022 was principally attributable to a reduction of legal fees in the current year.

 

Other Income (Expenses)

 

During fiscal year 2023, Greystone recognized a gain on the deconsolidation of the variable interest entity GRE in the amount of $569,997. During fiscal year 2022, a gain was recognized on the forgiveness of debt plus accrued interest in the amount of $3,068,497 for the Paycheck Protection Program loan under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act.

 

Other income from the sale of scrap material was $5,635 in fiscal year 2023 compared to $26,825 in fiscal year 2022.

 

Interest expense was $219,446 in fiscal year 2023 compared to $223,354 in fiscal year 2022 for a decrease of $3,908.

 

15

 

 

Provision for (Benefit from) Income Taxes

 

The provision for (benefit from) income taxes was $340,000 and $(7,000) in fiscal years 2023 and 2022, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from federal statutory rates due principally to state income taxes, charges (income) which have no tax benefit (expense), changes in the valuation allowance, and the basis that the net income from GRE is not taxable at the corporate level because GRE is a limited liability company of which Greystone has no equity ownership.

 

Based upon a review of its income tax filing positions, Greystone believes that its positions would be sustained upon an audit by the Internal Revenue Service and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to its financial position. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded.

 

Net Income

 

Greystone recorded net income of $1,373,741 in fiscal year 2023 compared to $3,122,458 in fiscal year 2022 primarily for the reasons discussed above.

 

Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders

 

The net income attributable to common stockholders for fiscal year 2023 was $1,214,724, or $0.04 per share, compared $2,970,921, or $0.10 per share, in fiscal year 2022 primarily for the reasons discussed above.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

A summary of cash flows for the three months ended August 31, 2022 is as follows:

 

     
Cash used in operating activities  $(3,304,209)
      
Cash used in investing activities  $(1,154,590)
      
Cash provided by financing activities  $4,250,440 

 

Cash used in operating activities resulted primarily from providing goods totaling approximately $5,000 000 to the customer against the customer’s deposit. Cash provided by financing activities resulted primarily from cash proceeds from loans payable to IBC used in part to payoff Greystone’s note payable of approximately $3,200,000 to a director and a capital contribution to the variable interest entity GRE by its sole member to pay off its mortgage note of approximately $1,800,000 to IBC.

The contractual obligations of Greystone are as follows:

Thereafter

 
Long-term debt  $16,653,282   $2,604,380   $9,143,052   $4,352,197   $553,653 
Financing leases  $1,842,383   $1,586,050   $253,326   $3,007   $- 
Operating leases  $8,423,975   $568,915   $1,084,160   $1,070,230   $5,700,670 
Commitments  $5,053,390   $5,053,390   $-   $-   $- 

 

Greystone had a working capital of $1,279,803 as of August 31, 2022. To provide for the funding to meet Greystone’s operating activities and contractual obligations as of August 31, 2022, Greystone will have to continue to produce positive operating results or explore various options including additional long-term debt and equity financing. However, there is no guarantee that Greystone will continue to create positive operating results or be able to raise sufficient capital to meet these obligations. As of August 31, 2022, Greystone had commitments for capital expenditures of approximately $5.0 million of which $4.6 million was available under the advancing term loan with IBC, see Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements.

 

A substantial amount of the Greystone’s debt financing has resulted primarily from bank notes which are guaranteed by certain officers and directors of Greystone. From time to time, loans have been provided by certain officers and directors of Greystone of which there are none outstanding as of August 31, 2022. Greystone continues to be dependent upon its officers and directors to secure, or possibly provide, additional financing and there is no assurance that its officers and directors will continue to do so. As such, there is no assurance that funding will be available for Greystone to continue operations.

 

Greystone has 50,000 outstanding shares of cumulative 2003 Preferred Stock with a liquidation preference of $5,000,000 and a preferred dividend rate of the prime rate of interest plus 3.25%. Greystone does not anticipate that it will make cash dividend payments to any holders of its common stock unless and until the financial position of Greystone improves through increased revenues, another financing transaction or otherwise. Pursuant to the IBC Restated Loan Agreement, as discussed in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements, Greystone may pay dividends on its preferred stock in an amount not to exceed $500,000 per year.

Forward Looking Statements and Material Risks

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes certain statements that may be deemed “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements are made in reliance on the safe harbor protections provided under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, that address activities, events or developments that Greystone expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including decreased costs, securing financing, the profitability of Greystone, potential sales of pallets or other possible business developments, are forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties. The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q could be affected by any of the following factors: Greystone’s prospects could be affected by changes in availability of raw materials, competition, rapid technological change and new legislation regarding environmental matters; Greystone may not be able to secure additional financing necessary to sustain and grow its operations; and a material portion of Greystone’s business is and will be dependent upon a few large customers and there is no assurance that Greystone will be able to retain such customers. These risks and other risks that could affect Greystone’s business are more fully described in Greystone’s Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2022, which was filed on August 23, 2022. Actual results may vary materially from the forward-looking statements. Greystone undertakes no duty to update any of the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Greystone carried out an evaluation under the supervision of Greystone’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Greystone’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based on an evaluation as of May 31, 2022, Warren F. Kruger, Greystone’s Chief Executive Officer, and William W. Rahhal, Greystone’s Chief Financial Officer, identified no material weakness in Greystone’s internal control over financial reporting. As a result, Greystone’s CEO and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of Greystone’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of August 31, 2022.

 

During the three months ended August 31, 2022, there were no changes in Greystone’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, Greystone’s internal control over financial reporting.
