ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OR PLAN OF OPERATION
The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected our financial position and operating results during the periods included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as well as information relating to the plans of our current management. This report includes forward-looking statements. Generally, the words “believes”, “anticipates”, “may”, “will”, “should”, “expect”, “intend”, “estimate”, “continue”, and similar expressions or the negative thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including the matters set forth in this Annual Report or other reports or documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those projected. Undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto and other financial information contained elsewhere in this Annual Report. Unless otherwise stated, all dollar amounts are in thousands, except per share data.

Critical Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and (iii) the reported amount of net sales and expense recognized during the periods presented.
Those estimates and assumptions include estimates for reserves of uncollectible accounts receivable, allowance for inventory obsolescence, product returns, depreciable lives of property and equipment, allocation of purchase price from business combinations, analysis of impairment of goodwill, realization of deferred tax assets, accruals for potential liabilities and assumptions made in valuing stock instruments issued for services. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
All of the Company’s accounts receivable balance is related to trade receivables. Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company will maintain allowances for doubtful accounts, estimating losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments for products. Accounts with known financial issues are first reviewed and specific estimates are recorded. The remaining accounts receivable balances are then grouped into categories by the number of days the balance is past due, and the estimated loss is recorded based upon management’s assessment of collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when it is probable that the receivable will not be recovered.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had provided a reserve for doubtful accounts of $9 and $41, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The deferred tax assets of the Company relate primarily to operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes. The deferred tax liabilities of the Company relate primarily to intangible assets that are not deductible for tax purposes in the jurisdictions to which they relate.
The Company periodically evaluates its tax positions to determine whether it is more likely than not that such positions would be sustained upon examination by a tax authority for all open tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations, based on their technical merits. The Company accrues interest and penalties, if incurred, on unrecognized tax benefits as components of the income tax provision in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has not established a liability for uncertain tax positions.
Product Returns, Sales Incentives and Other Forms of Variable Consideration
In measuring revenue and determining the consideration the Company is entitled to as part of a contract with a customer, the Company takes into account the related elements of variable consideration. Such elements of variable consideration include, but are not limited to, estimated sales allowances, defective products, product returns and sales incentives, such as markdowns and sales promotions. For these types of arrangements, the adjustments to revenue are recorded at the later of when (i) the Company recognizes revenue for the transfer of the related products to the customers, or (ii) the Company pays, or promises to pay, the consideration.
With the exception of Irwin, we currently have a 30-day product return policy for direct-to-consumer sales, which allows for a 100% sales price refund for the return of unopened and undamaged products purchased from us online through one of our websites or e-commerce platforms. Irwin allows for returns within 60 days of purchase for direct-to-consumer sales. Product sold to certain wholesale customers may be returned from store shelves or the distribution center in the event product is damaged, short dated, expired or recalled.
19
GNC maintains a customer satisfaction program which allows customers to return product to the store for credit or refund. Subject to certain terms and restrictions, GNC may require reimbursement from vendors for unsaleable returned product through either direct payment or credit against a future invoice. We also support a product return policy for iSatori Products, whereby customers can return product for credit or refund. Product returns can and do occur from time to time and can be material.
For the sale of goods with a right of return, the Company estimates variable consideration using the most likely amount method and recognizes revenue for the consideration it expects to be entitled to when control of the related product is transferred to the customers and records a product returns liability for the amount it expects to credit back its customers. Under this method, certain forms of variable consideration are based on expected sell-through results, which requires subjective estimates. These estimates are supported by historical results as well as specific facts and circumstances related to the current period. The product returns liability includes estimates that directly impact reported revenue. These estimates are calculated based on a history of actual returns, estimated future returns and information provided by customers regarding their inventory levels. Consideration of these factors results in an estimate for anticipated sales returns that reflects increases or decreases related to seasonal fluctuations. In addition, as necessary, product returns liability may be established for significant future known or anticipated events. The types of known or anticipated events that are considered, and will continue to be considered, include, but are not limited to, changes in the retail environment and the Company's decision to continue to support new and existing products.
Information for product returns is received on a regular basis and adjusted for accordingly. Adjustments for returns are based on factual information and historical trends for Company products and are specific to each distribution channel. We monitor, among other things, remaining shelf life and sell-through data on a weekly basis. If we determine there are any risks or issues with any specific products, we accrue sales return allowances based on management’s assessment of the overall risk and likelihood of returns in light of all information available.
Total allowance for product returns, sales returns and incentive programs as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 amounted to $1,039 and $564, respectively.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with costs determined on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. We regularly review our inventory quantities on hand and record a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on our estimated forecast of product demand and/or our ability to sell the product(s) concerned and production requirements. Demand for our products can fluctuate significantly. Factors that could affect demand for our products include unanticipated changes in consumer preferences, general market conditions or other factors, which may result in cancellations of advance orders or a reduction in the rate of reorders placed by customers. Additionally, our management’s estimates of future product demand may be inaccurate, which could result in an understated or overstated provision required for excess and obsolete inventory.
Total allowance for expiring, excess and slow-moving inventory items as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 amounted to $247 and $100, respectively.
Goodwill
The Company has determined that it has a single reporting unit for purposes of performing its goodwill impairment test. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform an impairment test. If the qualitative assessment warrants further analysis, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. The fair value of the reporting unit is determined using the market approach. The Company determines the amount of a potential goodwill impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. To the extent the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, a goodwill impairment charge is recognized.
As the Company uses the market approach to determine fair value of the reporting unit, the price of its Common Stock is an important component of the fair value calculation. If the Company’s stock price experiences significant price and volume fluctuations, this will impact the fair value of the reporting unit, which can lead to potential impairment in future periods.
There were no impairment charges incurred during the year ended December 31, 2025.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenue is comprised of sales of nutritional supplements and wellness products to consumers.
20
The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 606. The underlying principle of ASC 606 is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at the amount expected to be collected. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contract(s), which includes (1) identifying the contract(s) or agreement(s) with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract are satisfied, which occurs for the Company upon shipment or delivery of products to our customers based on written sales terms. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring the products to a customer.
All products sold by the Company are distinct individual products and consist of nutritional supplements and wellness products. The products are offered for sale solely as finished goods, and there are no performance obligations required post-shipment for customers to derive the expected value from them.
The Company’s products are also sold on e-commerce platforms including Amazon. For these transactions, the Company evaluated principal versus agent considerations to determine appropriateness of recording distribution and platform fees paid to third-party e-commerce companies as an expense or as a reduction of revenue. The Company records distribution and platform fees to cost of goods sold in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Distribution and platform fees are not recorded as a reduction of revenue because the Company: (1) owns the goods before they are transferred to the customer, (2) can direct Amazon, similar to other third-party logistics providers (“Logistic Providers”), to return the Company’s inventory to any location specified by the Company, (3) has the responsibility to make customers whole following any returns made by customers directly to Logistic Providers and the Company retains the back-end inventory risk, (4) is subject to credit risk (i.e., credit card chargebacks), (5) establishes prices of its products, (6) can determine who fulfills the goods to the customer (Amazon or the Company) and (7) can limit quantities or stop selling the goods at any time. Based on these considerations, the Company is the principal in this arrangement. Advertising fees paid to Amazon are recorded in advertising and marketing expense in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.
The Company disaggregates revenue into distribution channels, geographical regions, and collections of brands (Legacy FitLife and recently acquired brands). The Company determines that disaggregating revenue into these categories achieves the disclosure objective to depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.
Online revenue, which consists of revenue generated from sales on the Company’s own websites as well as third-party e-commerce platforms such as Amazon, for the year ended December 31, 2025 was approximately 51% of total revenue, compared to roughly 67% of total revenue during the same twelve-month period in 2024.
Sales to customers in the U.S. were approximately 95% for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, with the balance of sales to customers primarily in Canada.
Control of products we sell transfers to customers upon shipment from our facilities or delivery to our customers, and the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at that time. Shipping and handling activities are performed before the customer obtains control of the goods and therefore represent a fulfillment activity rather than promised goods to the customer. Payments for sales are generally made by check, credit card, or wire transfer. Historically the Company has not experienced any significant payment delays from customers.
For direct-to-consumer sales, with the exception of Irwin Products, the Company allows for returns within 30 days of purchase. Irwin allows for returns within 60 days of purchase for direct-to-consumer sales. Our wholesale customers may return purchased products to the Company under certain circumstances, which include expired or soon-to-be-expired products located in retail stores or distribution centers, and products that are subject to a recall or that contain an ingredient or ingredients that are subject to a recall by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”).
A right of return does not represent a separate performance obligation, but because customers are allowed to return products, the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled is variable. Such elements of variable consideration include, but are not limited to, estimated sales allowances, defective products, product returns and sales incentives, such as markdowns and sales promotions. The Company uses the most likely amount method to quantify the variable consideration. We assess our contracts and the reasonableness of our conclusions on a quarterly basis.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company periodically issues restricted share units (“RSUs”), stock options and warrants to employees in non-capital raising transactions for services rendered. Such issuances vest and expire according to the terms established at the issuance date.
Stock-based payments to officers, directors and employees, which include grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the financial statements based on their grant date fair values in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. Stock-based payments to officers, directors, and employees that are time vested are measured at the grant date fair value and compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The fair value of stock-based payments is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model or other applicable valuation model such as the Monte Carlo valuation pricing model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life, and future dividends. The assumptions used could materially affect compensation expense recorded in future periods.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report for a description of recent accounting pronouncements believed by management to have a material impact on our present or future financial statements.
Results of Operations
Years ended December 31,
Gross margin percentage 38.6 % 43.6 % (5.0 )%
Operating expense:
Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2025 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2024
Revenue. Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased 26% to $81,458 as compared to $64,469 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increased revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the prior year is primarily due to the acquisition of Irwin, partially offset by declining revenue from MRC. The Irwin assets were acquired on August 8, 2025.
Legacy FitLife revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $61,993, a 4% decrease compared to $64,469 for the year ended December 31, 2024, driven by a 7% decrease in online revenue, partially offset by a 2% increase in wholesale revenue (MRC and MusclePharm are now included in Legacy FitLife).
Online revenue during the year ended December 31, 2025 was approximately 51% of total revenue, compared to roughly 67% of total revenue during the same twelve-month period in 2024. The decline in the percentage of revenue coming from online sales is due to the acquisition of Irwin, which had minimal online revenue at the time of the acquisition.
Sales to customers in the U.S. were approximately 95% for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, with the balance of sales primarily to customers in Canada.
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased 37% to $50,005 as compared to $36,389 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase of $13,616 is primarily due to the increase in revenue from the acquisition of Irwin, which includes $1,045 from the amortization of the inventory step-up.
Gross Profit. Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased to $31,453 as compared to $28,080 for the year ended December 31, 2024. This 12% increase in gross profit is principally attributable to the acquisition of Irwin, partially offset by lower gross profit from Legacy FitLife.
22
Gross Margin. Gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2025 decreased to 38.6% from 43.6% for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in gross margin is primarily attributable to the acquisition of Irwin, which historically generated lower gross margin than FitLife. Gross margin was also adversely affected by $1,045 of amortization of the inventory step-up, as well as continued MusclePharm promotional investment. Excluding the amortization of the inventory step-up, gross margin would have been 39.9% during the year ended December 31, 2025.
Advertising and Marketing. Advertising and marketing expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased to $4,860 as compared to $4,626 for the same period of the prior year. The 5% increase is primarily the result of advertising and marketing expense for Irwin.
SG&A. SG&A expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by $4,064 to $14,036 as compared to $9,972 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The 41% increase in SG&A is primarily due to the acquisition of Irwin.
Merger and Acquisition Related Expense. Merger and acquisition related expense increased to $2,075 for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $255 for the same period of 2024, driven primarily by transaction costs related to the Irwin acquisition during 2025.
Net Income. We generated a net income of $6,326 for the year ended December 31, 2025, a 30% decrease compared to net income of $8,984 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in net income for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 was primarily attributable to an increase in acquisition-related expense due to the Irwin acquisition as well as lower gross profit from certain Legacy FitLife brands.
Supplemental Discussion of Performance of Acquired Brands
One of the primary metrics used by management to evaluate the performance of the Company’s brands is contribution, a non-GAAP financial measure which management defines as gross profit less advertising and marketing expenditures. Other companies may also report contribution as a performance metric, but their definition or calculation of contribution may differ from the Company’s. Management believes that contribution, as defined by the Company, is a particularly relevant performance metric since it incorporates the gross profit associated with a specific brand or collection of brands as well as the advertising and marketing expenditures associated with the same brand or brands. With limited exceptions, other operating expenses incurred by the Company are generally not allocable to a specific brand or collection of brands. Management intends to provide this level of disclosure for no more than two years following a transaction, after which the performance of acquired brands will be reported as part of Legacy FitLife results.
Other than for Irwin Products, the numbers in the contribution tables presented below represent the performance of a collection of brands. Legacy FitLife consists of thirteen brands. These collections of brands do not meet the definition of operating segments and are not managed as such.
Legacy FitLife
For the fourth quarter of 2025, revenue for Legacy FitLife (which now includes MusclePharm as well as MRC) declined 12% compared to the same period last year due to declines in both online and wholesale revenue.
Online revenue decreased by 10% compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily driven by lower online sales from MRC and MusclePharm, partially offset by higher online revenue from the other Legacy FitLife brands. Wholesale revenue decreased 14% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2024.
23
Gross margin for Legacy FitLife decreased to 40.7% during the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to 41.4% during the fourth quarter of last year. Contribution as a percentage of revenue decreased to 32.5% compared to 34.9% during the fourth quarter of last year.
Irwin Naturals
Advertising and marketing 72 182
Contribution as a % of revenue 31.1 % 26.6 %
The fourth quarter of 2025 is the first full quarter of Irwin’s operating results since the Company acquired Irwin in August 2025. During the quarter, Irwin generated 89% of its revenue from the wholesale channel and 11% from online sales.
Online revenue during the quarter represents transactions through Irwin’s websites as well as through Amazon and other e-commerce platforms. The Company began selling Irwin products on Amazon in mid-October, and sales increased throughout the quarter to approximately $0.5 million in the month of December.
Normalizing for loss of the customers that occurred prior to the acquisition of Irwin by the Company, as well as for the results of Irwin’s CBD business, which the Company is in the process of exiting, total revenue for Irwin increased approximately 6% in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to the fourth quarter of 2024.
Irwin generated gross margin of 28.0% and contribution as a percentage of revenue of 26.6% during the fourth quarter of 2025. Excluding amortization of the inventory step-up, Irwin’s gross margin and contribution as a percentage of revenue would have been 33.2% and 31.8%, respectively.
FitLife Consolidated
For the fourth quarter of 2025 for the Company overall, revenue increased 73%, gross profit increased 44%, and contribution increased 47% compared to the fourth quarter of 2024.
Gross margin decreased to 34.5% during the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to 41.4% during the fourth quarter of last year, with the decline in gross margin primarily attributable to the acquisition of Irwin, which historically operated at a lower gross margin than Legacy FitLife.
Contribution as a percentage of revenue decreased to 29.6% compared to 34.9% during the fourth quarter of last year. Excluding the effect of the inventory step-up amortization of $653, gross margin and contribution as a percentage of revenue would have been 37.0% and 32.2%, respectively, during the fourth quarter.
24
Non-GAAP Measures
The financial presentation below contains certain financial measures not in accordance with GAAP, defined by the SEC as “non-GAAP financial measures”, including EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA. These measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The presentation of this financial information, which is not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles, is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in this Annual Report in accordance with GAAP.
As presented below, EBITDA excludes interest, foreign exchange gains and losses, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes—in addition to interest, foreign exchange gains and losses, taxes, depreciation and amortization—stock-based compensation, merger and acquisition related expense and other non-recurring costs. The Company believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expense and other items that may not be indicative of its core operating results and business outlook. The Company believes that the inclusion of non-GAAP measures in the financial presentation below allows investors to compare the Company’s financial results with the Company’s historical financial results and is an important measure of the Company’s comparative financial performance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had positive working capital of $11,459, compared to $6,832 at December 31, 2024. Our principal sources of liquidity at December 31, 2025 consisted of $1,646 of cash and $8,765 of accounts receivable. The increase in working capital is principally attributable to higher accounts receivable and inventory balances subsequent to the acquisition of Irwin, which occurred on August 8, 2025.
On September 24, 2019, the Company entered into a line of credit agreement with Mutual of Omaha Bank (the “Lender”), subsequently acquired by CIT Bank N.A., then acquired by First Citizens Bank & Trust Company, providing the Company with a $2.5 million revolving line of credit (the “Line of Credit”). The Line of Credit allowed the Company to request advances thereunder and to use the proceeds of such advances for working capital purposes until the maturity date, or unless renewed at maturity upon approval by the Company’s Board and the Lender. The Line of Credit was secured by all assets of the Company.
On September 20, 2022, the Company and the Lender amended the Line of Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date to December 23, 2022. On December 19, 2022, the Company and the Lender amended the Line of Credit agreement to increase the Line of Credit to $3.5 million and extend the maturity date to December 23, 2023.
On February 23, 2023, the Company and the Lender amended the Line of Credit Agreement (the “2023Credit Agreement”) providing the Company with a term loan for the principal amount of $12.5 million (“Term Loan A”). All other terms of the Credit Agreement remain unchanged. All of the proceeds from Term Loan A were used for the acquisition of MRC.
On October 10, 2023, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Prior Credit Agreement”) with the Lender, amending and restating the 2023 Credit Agreement between the Company and the Lender. Pursuant to the Prior Credit Agreement, the Lender provided the Company with an additional term loan (“Term Loan B”, and together with Term Loan A, the “Term Loans”) for the principal amount of $10,000 and extended the maturity date of the Line of Credit of $3.5 million to December 23, 2024. The Company used the proceeds from Term Loan B to fund the acquisition of the MusclePharm assets.
25
On December 19, 2024, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Prior Credit Agreement (the “Amended Prior Credit Agreement”) to extend the maturity date of the $3.5 million Line of Credit to April 30, 2026. Pursuant to the Amended Prior Credit Agreement, the Line of Credit accrued interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of 3.50% or the one-month secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) rate plus 2.75%, and each advance was payable on the maturity date with the interest on outstanding advances payable monthly. The Company was permitted, at its option, to prepay any borrowings under the Line of Credit, in whole or in part at any time prior to the maturity date, without premium or penalty.
On August 8, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a new credit agreement (the “CreditAgreement”) with First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company (the “Bank”). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Bank provided the Company with a five-year term loan in the amount of $40,625 (the “Irwin Term Loan”) and a three-year revolving line of credit of up to $10,000 (the “Credit Line”, and collectively with the Irwin Term Loan, the “Loan”). The Company used $29,750 from the Irwin Term Loan to complete the purchase of substantially all of the assets of Irwin, and its related affiliates, pursuant to an Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement, and $10,875 to pay off, retire and replace all existing debt of the Company as of the Closing Date.
Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Irwin Term Loan accrues interest at a per annum rate equal to 2.50% to 3.00%, based on leverage, above the secured overnight financing rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the applicable selected interest period of one, three or six months (“Term SOFR Rate”, the Term SOFR Rate together with the aforementioned margin, the “Applicable Rate”). The Company shall make payments of accrued interest on the Irwin Term Loan at the end of each interest period and shall make payments on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, of each calendar year. The Company began making quarterly payments of principal plus accrued interest on the Irwin Term Loan on December 31, 2025. Principal payments of $1,523 will be made for the next seven quarterly payment dates through September 30, 2025, and each quarterly payment thereafter will be $2,031, in each case plus accrued interest. All remaining principal and accrued interest on the Irwin Term Loan will be due and payable in full on August 8, 2030.
Outstanding advances under the Credit Line (“Advances”) will accrue interest at the Applicable Rate, and the Company shall make payments of accrued interest on such Advances at the end of each interest period and on the repayment of any Advance with all remaining principal and accrued interest on the Advances being due and payable in full on August 8, 2028.
The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants to maintain a Senior Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of not more than 2.75 to 1.00 as tested quarterly on a trailing twelve-month basis, starting with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2025 and ending with the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2026, and a Senior Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of not more than 2.50 to 1.00 as tested quarterly on a trailing twelve-month basis, starting with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2026, and to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of at least 1.25 to 1.00 as tested on the last day of each fiscal quarter, commencing with the quarter ending December 31, 2025.
As of December 31, 2025, the borrowings outstanding on the Irwin Term Loan and the Line of Credit were $39,102 and $5,600, respectively.
The Company has historically financed its operations primarily through cash flow from operations and equity and debt financings. The Company currently anticipates that cash derived from operations and existing cash reserves, along with available borrowings under the Line of Credit, will be sufficient to provide for the Company’s liquidity for the next twelve months.
Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $7,439 during the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $9,610 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to lower net income compared to the same period of 2024.
Cash Used in Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities was $42,542 and $10 during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to the acquisition of Irwin for $42,500.
Cash Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $32,086 as compared to cash used in financing activities of $6,983 during the year ended December 31, 2024. The cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily due to the borrowings under the Credit Agreement for the acquisition of Irwin on August 8, 2025, and the cash used for financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to loan payments under the Amended Prior Credit Agreement.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Other than contractual obligations incurred in the normal course of business, we do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities, retained or contingent interests in transferred assets or any obligation arising out of a material variable interest in an unconsolidated entity.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our business is conducted principally in the U.S. However, due to the MRC acquisition in 2024, the Company now has more exposure to fluctuations in foreign currencies. As a result, our financial results may be materially affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or economic conditions in foreign markets.
Foreign Currency
The Company has not entered into any foreign currency hedging transactions during the years ended December 31, 2025 or 2024. As the geographical scope of our business broadens, we may engage in foreign currency hedging transactions in the future.
Interest Rates
Our exposure to risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to borrowings under the Credit Agreement (which includes the Irwin Term Loan as well as our Line of Credit), and our investments in short-term financial instruments. As of December 31, 2025 the Company had $39,102 outstanding on the Irwin Term Loan (of which $19,250 was swapped for a fixed rate, thereby eliminating interest rate variability on that portion of the loan) and $5,600 under its Line of Credit.
Investments of our cash balances in both fixed-rate and floating-rate interest-earning instruments carry some interest rate risk. The fair value of fixed-rate securities may fall due to a rise in interest rates, while floating-rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. Partly as a result of this, our future interest income will vary due to changes in interest rates and we may suffer losses in principal if we are forced to sell securities that have fallen in estimated fair value due to changes in interest rates. However, as substantially all of our cash equivalents consist of bank deposits and short-term money market instruments, we do not expect any material change with respect to our net income as a result of an interest rate change.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as of December 31, 2025 was completed. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer believe that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
27
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding ICFR. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to an exemption for smaller reporting companies under Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.
Because of its inherent limitations, ICFR may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
Our CEO and CFO evaluated the effectiveness of our ICFR as of December 31, 2025. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework.
Our CEO and CFO excluded the ICFR of Irwin from their evaluation as of December 31, 2025. As discussed in Note 8 of the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, on August 8, 2025, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed minimal liabilities of Irwin. Under guidelines established by the SEC, companies are permitted to exclude acquisitions from their assessment of ICFR for a period of up to one year following an acquisition while integrating the acquired company.
Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, our ICFR was effective.
(c)Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting.
There were no additional changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the year ended December 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:
Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2025 and 2024 F-2
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS F-6
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of FitLife Brands, Inc.
Omaha, NE
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of FitLife Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Acquisition of Irwin
As discussed in Note 8 to the financial statements, on August 8, 2025, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Irwin Naturals and its related affiliates (“Irwin”) through an asset purchase transaction under Section 363 of the US Bankruptcy Code for $42.5 million. The Company accounted for the acquisition as a business combination and allocated the purchase price to Irwin’s tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities at their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. The acquired intangible assets included $16.5 million of brands and $9 million of customer relationships. The fair value of the brands intangible asset was estimated by management using a relief from royalty method.
The fair value of the customer relationships intangible asset was estimated by management using a multi-period excess earnings method. These fair value estimates were based on significant assumptions, including projected revenue growth rates, customer attrition rates, and discount rates.
We identified the valuation of the acquired brands and customer relationships as a critical audit matter due to high degree of auditor judgment and increased level of audit effort required to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s forecasts when developing the fair value estimates.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included, among others:
● We obtained and read the purchase agreement;
● We evaluated the appropriateness of management’s valuation methodologies;
We have served as the Company’s auditor from 2018 through 2019, and since October 2023.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024
(in thousands, except per share amounts)
NOTE 1.DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Summary
FitLife Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) is a provider of innovative and proprietary nutritional supplements and wellness products for health-conscious consumers marketed under the following brand names: (i) NDS Nutrition, PMD Sports, SirenLabs, Core Active, Nutrology, and Metis Nutrition (together, the “NDS Products”); (ii) iSatori, BioGenetic Laboratories, and Energize (together, the "iSatori Products"); (iii) Dr. Tobias, All Natural Advice, and Maritime Naturals (together, the “MRC Products"); (iv) MusclePharm; and (v) Irwin Naturals, Applied Nutrition, and Nature’s Secret (together, the “Irwin Products”), each of which was acquired in August 2025.
The Company distributes the NDS Products principally through franchised General Nutrition Centers, Inc. (“GNC”) stores located both domestically and internationally. The iSatori Products are sold through retail locations, which include specialty and mass market retailers, as well as online directly to the end consumer. The Company distributes the MRC Products primarily online through e-commerce platforms, such as Amazon, directly to the end consumer. MusclePharm’s products are sold to both wholesale customers as well as online through various e-commerce platforms directly to the end consumer. Irwin Products are sold principally through wholesale channels in mass market and health food store segments.
FitLife Brands is headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska. For more information on the Company, please go to www.fitlifebrands.com. The Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), trades under the symbol “FTLF” on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
Stock Split
On February 7, 2025, the Company effected a 2-for-1 stock split of its Common Stock and proportionately increased the number of authorized shares of Common Stock to 120,000. All share and per share information throughout this Annual Report on Form 10-K has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split as of the earliest period presented. The shares of Common Stock retain a par value of $0.01 per share. Accordingly, an amount equal to the par value of the additional shares issued in the stock split was reclassified from additional paid-in capital in excess of par value to Common Stock.
Acquisition of Irwin Naturals
On August 8, 2025, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Irwin Naturals and its related affiliates (“Irwin”) through an asset purchase transaction under Section 363 of the US Bankruptcy Code. Total consideration for the acquisition was $42,500. Of this amount, $29,750 was funded using proceeds from a new term loan provided by First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company (the “Bank”), $6,000 was funded from a new $10,000 revolving line of credit from the Bank, with the remainder funded from the Company’s available cash balances.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Significant accounting policies are as follows:
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements include Irwin’s assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses since acquisition, including Irwin revenue from August 8, 2025 through December 31, 2025, of $19,465.
F-6
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the Company’s Canadian subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar. The assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using end-of-period exchange rates. Changes in reported amounts of assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries that occur as a result of changes in exchange rates between foreign subsidiaries’ functional currencies and the U.S. dollar are included in foreign currency translation adjustment. Foreign currency translation adjustment is included as a component of stockholders’ equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Revenue and expense transactions use an average rate prevailing during the period of the related transaction. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of each subsidiary are included in the results of operations as incurred.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and (iii) the reported amount of net sales and expense recognized during the periods presented.
Those estimates and assumptions include estimates for reserves of uncollectible accounts receivable, allowance for inventory obsolescence, product returns, deals and promotions, depreciable lives of property and equipment, allocation of purchase price from business combinations, analyses of impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, realization of deferred tax assets, accruals for potential liabilities and assumptions made in valuing stock instruments issued for services. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenue is comprised of sales of nutritional supplements and wellness products to consumers.
The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers(“ASC 606”). The underlying principle of ASC 606 is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at the amount expected to be collected. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contract(s), which includes (1) identifying the contract(s) or agreement(s) with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract are satisfied, which occurs for the Company upon shipment or delivery of products to our customers based on written sales terms. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring the products to a customer.
All products sold by the Company are distinct individual products and consist of nutritional supplements and wellness products. The products are offered for sale solely as finished goods, and there are no performance obligations required post-shipment for customers to derive the expected value from them.
The Company’s products are also sold on e-commerce platforms including Amazon. For these transactions, the Company evaluated principal versus agent considerations to determine appropriateness of recording distribution and platform fees paid to third-party e-commerce companies as an expense or as a reduction of revenue. The Company records distribution and platform fees to cost of goods sold in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Distribution and platform fees are not recorded as a reduction of revenue because the Company (1) owns the goods before they are transferred to the customer, (2) can direct Amazon, similar to other third-party logistics providers (“Logistic Providers”), to return the Company’s inventory to any location specified by the Company, (3) has the responsibility to make customers whole following any returns made by customers directly to Logistic Providers and the Company retains the back-end inventory risk, (4) is subject to credit risk (i.e., credit card chargebacks), (5) establishes prices of its products, (6) can determine who fulfills the goods to the customer (Amazon or the Company) and (7) can limit quantities or stop selling the goods at any time. Based on these considerations, the Company is the principal in this arrangement. Advertising fees paid to Amazon are recorded in advertising and marketing expense in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income
The Company disaggregates revenue into distribution channels, geographical regions, and collections of brands (Legacy FitLife and recently acquired brands). The Company determines that disaggregating revenue into these categories achieves the disclosure objective to depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.
Online revenue, which consists of revenue generated from sales on the Company’s own websites as well as third-party e-commerce platforms such as Amazon, for the year ended December 31, 2025 was approximately 51% of total revenue, compared to roughly 67% of total revenue during the same twelve-month period in 2024.
Sales to customers in the U.S. were approximately 95% for both of the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, with the balance of sales to customers primarily in Canada.
F-7
The Company provides limited financial performance metrics for three collections of brands—Legacy FitLife (thirteen brands) and Irwin (three brands). These collections of brands do not meet the definition of operating segments and are not managed as such.
Years ended December 31,
Control of products we sell transfers to customers upon shipment from our facilities or delivery to our customers, and the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at that time. Shipping and handling activities are performed before the customer obtains control of the goods and therefore represent a fulfillment activity rather than promised goods to the customer. Payments for sales are generally made by check, credit card, or wire transfer. Historically the Company has not experienced any significant payment delays from customers.
For direct-to-consumer sales, with the exception of Irwin Products, the Company allows for returns within 30 days of purchase. Irwin allows for returns within 60 days of purchase for direct-to-consumer sales. Our wholesale customers may return purchased products to the Company under certain circumstances, which include expired or soon-to-be-expired products located in retail stores or distribution centers, and products that are subject to a recall or that contain an ingredient or ingredients that are subject to a recall by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”).
A right of return does not represent a separate performance obligation, but because customers are allowed to return products, the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled is variable. Such elements of variable consideration include, but are not limited to, estimated sales allowances, defective products, product returns and sales incentives, such as markdowns and sales promotions. The Company uses the most likely amount method to quantify the variable consideration. We assess our contracts and the reasonableness of our conclusions on a quarterly basis.
Customer and Vendor Concentration
Total net sales to one customer during 2025 and 2024 were 14% and 23% of total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
As of December 31, 2025 there were two vendors who accounted for 40% and 35% of the Company’s consolidated accounts payable, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, there was one vendor who accounted for 59% of the Company's consolidated accounts payable. For the year ended December 31, 2025, there were three vendors who accounted for 50%, 14%, and 13% of the Company's inventory-related purchases. For the year ended December 31, 2024, there were two vendors who accounted for 44% and 28% of the Company's inventory-related purchases.
Accounts Receivable, Allowance for Credit Losses and Accounts Receivable Concentration
All of the Company’s accounts receivable balance is related to trade receivables. Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company will maintain allowances for credit losses, estimating losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments for products. Accounts with known financial issues are first reviewed and specific estimates are recorded. The remaining accounts receivable balances are then grouped into categories by the number of days the balance is past due, and the estimated loss is recorded based upon management’s assessment of collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when it is probable that the receivable will not be recovered.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had provided an allowance for credit losses of $9 and $41, respectively.
As of December 31, 2025, there were two customers who accounted for 25% and 13% of the total accounts receivable balance, respectively. Accounts receivable attributable to one customer as of December 31, 2024 represented 35% of the Company’s total accounts receivable balance, respectively.
Product Returns, Sales Incentives and Other Forms of Variable Consideration
In measuring revenue and determining the consideration the Company is entitled to as part of a contract with a customer, the Company takes into account the related elements of variable consideration. Such elements of variable consideration include, but are not limited to, estimated sales allowances, defective products, product returns and sales incentives, such as markdowns and sales promotions. For these types of arrangements, the adjustments to revenue are recorded at the later of when (i) the Company recognizes revenue for the transfer of the related products to the customers, or (ii) the Company pays, or promises to pay, the consideration.
With the exception of Irwin, we currently have a 30-day product return policy for direct-to-consumer sales, which allows for a 100% sales price refund for the return of unopened and undamaged products purchased from us online through one of our websites or e-commerce platforms. Irwin allows for returns within 60 days of purchase for direct-to-consumer sales. Product sold to certain wholesale customers may be returned from store shelves or the distribution center in the event product is damaged, short dated, expired or recalled.
F-8
GNC maintains a customer satisfaction program which allows customers to return product to the store for credit or refund. Subject to certain terms and restrictions, GNC may require reimbursement from vendors for unsaleable returned product through either direct payment or credit against a future invoice. We also support a product return policy for iSatori Products, whereby customers can return product for credit or refund. Product returns can and do occur from time to time and can be material.
For the sale of goods with a right of return, the Company estimates variable consideration using the most likely amount method and recognizes revenue for the consideration it expects to be entitled to when control of the related product is transferred to the customers and records a product returns liability for the amount it expects to credit back its customers. Under this method, certain forms of variable consideration are based on expected sell-through results, which requires subjective estimates. These estimates are supported by historical results as well as specific facts and circumstances related to the current period. The product returns liability includes estimates that directly impact reported revenue. These estimates are calculated based on a history of actual returns, estimated future returns and information provided by customers regarding their inventory levels. Consideration of these factors results in an estimate for anticipated sales returns that reflects increases or decreases related to seasonal fluctuations. In addition, as necessary, product returns liability may be established for significant future known or anticipated events. The types of known or anticipated events that are considered, and will continue to be considered, include, but are not limited to, changes in the retail environment and the Company's decision to continue to support new and existing products.
Information for product returns is received on a regular basis and adjusted for accordingly. Adjustments for returns are based on factual information and historical trends for Company products and are specific to each distribution channel. We monitor, among other things, remaining shelf life and sell-through data on a weekly basis. If we determine there are any risks or issues with any specific products, we accrue sales return allowances based on management’s assessment of the overall risk and likelihood of returns in light of all information available.
Total allowance for product returns, sales returns and incentive programs as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 amounted to $1,039 and $564, respectively.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold is comprised of the costs of products, in-bound freight charges, shipping and handling costs, purchase and receiving costs, and commissions paid to Amazon and other online selling platforms. Other expense not related to the production and distribution of our products is classified as operating expense.
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash
The Company’s cash balances on deposit with banks are guaranteed up to amounts designated by the regulatory frameworks of the jurisdictions in which the accounts are maintained. The Company may be exposed to risk for the funds held in bank accounts that exceed the insurance limit. In assessing the risk, the Company’s policy is to maintain cash balances with high-quality financial institutions. The Company had cash balances exceeding the guarantee during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Management believes that the financial institutions that hold the Company’s cash are financially sound and, accordingly, minimal credit risk exists.
Restricted cash consists of cash on deposit with a financial institution in an interest-bearing account pursuant to a credit card agreement. Approximately $52 held in short-term interest-bearing accounts was pledged as collateral for financing arrangements during the first several months of 2025. The collateral requirement was terminated during the third quarter of 2025; therefore, no cash was restricted as of December 31, 2025.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with costs determined on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. We regularly review our inventory quantities on hand and record a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on our estimated forecast of product demand and/or our ability to sell the product(s) concerned and production requirements. Demand for our products can fluctuate significantly. Factors that could affect demand for our products include unanticipated changes in consumer preferences, general market conditions or other factors, which may result in cancellations of advance orders or a reduction in the rate of reorders placed by customers. Additionally, our management’s estimates of future product demand may be inaccurate, which could result in an understated or overstated provision required for excess and obsolete inventory.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the aggregate allowance for expiring, slow moving and excess inventory amounted to $247 and $100, respectively.
F-9
Leases
The Company accounts for its leases in accordance with the guidance of ASC 842, Leases. The Company determines whether a contract is, or contains, a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement based upon the estimated present value of unpaid lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at lease commencement in determining the present value of unpaid lease payments.
Irwin is a lessee under a certain operating lease with a third-party lessor for its main office. In accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, the lease liability for Irwin was measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments at the acquisition date, and the right-of-use asset is measured at an amount equal to the lease liability, adjusted for favorable or unfavorable terms of the lease when compared with market terms. As the lease was renewed in proximity to the date the Irwin Business was acquired by FitLife, the terms of the lease are considered by FitLife to be market terms at the acquisition date. Accordingly, FitLife measured the net present value of the remaining contractual lease payments as of the acquisition date using an incremental borrowing rate consistent with FitLife’s other operating leases.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method. The Company amortizes leasehold improvements over the estimated life of these assets or the term of the lease, whichever is shorter. When items are retired or otherwise disposed of, income is charged or credited for the difference between net book value and proceeds realized. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and replacements and betterments are capitalized.
Management regularly reviews property, equipment and other long-lived assets for possible impairment. This review occurs annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Based upon management’s annual assessment, there were no indicators of impairment of the Company’s property and equipment and other long-lived assets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Intangible and Long-lived Assets
Intangible assets are recorded at cost and amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. The Company regularly reviews the carrying value and estimated lives of its long-lived assets and intangible assets to determine whether indicators of impairment may exist which warrant adjustments to carrying values or estimated useful lives. The determinants used for this evaluation include management’s estimate of the asset’s ability to generate positive income from operations and positive cash flow in future periods as well as the strategic significance of the assets to the Company’s business objectives. Should an impairment exist, the impairment loss would be measured based on the excess of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset group over the asset’s fair value.
Based on management’s assessment, there were no indicators of impairment during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Goodwill
The Company has determined that it has a single reporting unit for purposes of performing its goodwill impairment test. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform an impairment test. If the qualitative assessment warrants further analysis, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. The fair value of the reporting unit is determined using the market approach. The Company determines the amount of a potential goodwill impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. To the extent the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, a goodwill impairment charge is recognized.
As the Company uses the market approach to determine fair value of the reporting unit, the price of its Common Stock is an important component of the fair value calculation. If the Company’s stock price experiences significant price and volume fluctuations, this will impact the fair value of the reporting unit, which can lead to potential impairment in future periods.
Based on management’s assessment, there were no indicators of impairment during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
F-10
Acquisitions and Business Combinations
The Company allocates the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and separately identified intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from acquired trademarks and trade names, useful lives, and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which is the period needed to gather all information necessary to make the purchase price allocation, not to exceed one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to earnings.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes(“ASC 740”). Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The deferred tax assets of the Company relate primarily to operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes. The deferred tax liabilities of the Company relate primarily to intangible assets that are not deductible for tax purposes in the jurisdictions to which they relate.
The Company periodically evaluates its tax positions to determine whether it is more likely than not that such positions would be sustained upon examination by a tax authority for all open tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations, based on their technical merits. The Company accrues interest and penalties, if incurred, on unrecognized tax benefits as components of the income tax provision in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has not established a liability for uncertain tax positions.
Net Income Per Share
Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued using the treasury stock method. Potential common shares are excluded from the computation when their effect is antidilutive. The dilutive effect of potentially dilutive securities is reflected in diluted net income per share if the exercise prices were lower than the average fair market value of common shares during the reporting period.
Basic and diluted weighted-average shares outstanding and antidilutive options that were excluded from diluted weighted average shares outstanding are as follows:
December 31,
Basic weighted average shares outstanding 9,347 9,197
Dilutive effect of potential common shares 630 701
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding 9,977 9,898
Antidilutive options 30 22
Fair Value Measurements
The Company uses various inputs in determining the fair value of its investments and measures these assets on a recurring basis. Financial assets recorded at fair value in the balance sheets are categorized by the level of objectivity associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for the use of fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date:
F-11
The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of the term loans approximate their fair value based on the market interest rates of these loans.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company periodically issues restricted share units (“RSUs”), stock options and warrants to employees in non-capital raising transactions for services rendered. Such issuances vest and expire according to the terms established at the issuance date.
Stock-based payments to officers, directors, employees and consultants for acquiring goods and services from non-employees, which include grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the financial statements based on their grant date fair values in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. Stock-based payments to officers, directors, and employees, which are generally time vested, are measured at the grant date fair value and compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as if the Company had paid cash for the services. The fair value of stock-based payments is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model or other applicable valuation model such as the Monte Carlo valuation pricing model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life, and future dividends. The assumptions used could materially affect compensation expense recorded in future periods.
Segment Information
The Company’s Chief Executive Officer is the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and evaluates performance and makes operating decisions about allocating resources based on financial data presented on a consolidated basis. Because the CODM evaluates financial performance on a consolidated basis, the Company has determined that it operates as a single reportable segment composed of the financial results of FitLife Brands, Inc (See Note 12).
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU2023-07,Segment Reporting (Topic280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosure (“ASC 280”), which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expense categories that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included in each reported measure of a segment’s profit or loss. The update also requires all annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets to be provided in interim periods and for entities with a single reportable segment to provide all the disclosures required by ASC 280, including the significant segment expense disclosures. This standard became effective for the Company on January 1, 2024. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements but has resulted in additional disclosures within the footnotes of the consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023‐09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which is intended to enhance the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring additional disaggregation of the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. Specifically, the guidance requires a tabular reconciliation using both percentages and amounts, with consistent categories and further disaggregation of material reconciling items, as well as income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The amendments in ASU 2023‐09 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024 and may be applied prospectively, with retrospective application permitted. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2023‐09 effective January 1, 2025. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements but has resulted in additional disclosures within the footnotes of the consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, FASB issued ASU 2024-03 Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). The guidance in ASU 2024-03 requires public business entities to disclose in the notes to the financial statements, among other things, specific information about certain costs and expenses including purchases of inventory; employee compensation; and depreciation and amortization expense for each caption on the income statement where such expenses are included. The update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted, and the amendments may be applied prospectively to reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this guidance and assessing the potential impact on our financial statement disclosures.

Forfeited - -
Outstanding Exercisable
The closing price for the Company’s Common Stock on December 31, 2025 was $16.27, resulting in an intrinsic value of outstanding options of $9,992.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company granted stock options to purchase 8 shares of Common Stock to employees. The stock options are exercisable at $18.73 per share. The stock options expire in five years and vest (i) one fourth immediately on the date of grant, and (ii) in three equal annual installments thereafter. The total fair value of these options at grant date was approximately $70, which was determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: stock price of $18.73 per share, expected term of 5 years, volatility of 50%, dividend rate of 0%, and risk-free interest rate of 3.24%. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of measurement corresponding with the expected term of the share option award. The expected term represents the weighted-average period of time that share option awards granted are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules and historical participant exercise behavior. The expected volatility is based upon historical volatility of the Company’s Common Stock. The expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends in the past and does not expect to pay dividends in the future.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company granted stock options to employees to purchase 22 shares of Company Common Stock. The stock options are exercisable at an average price of $16.63 per share, expire in five years and primarily vest as follows: one-fourth vested immediately upon issuance, and the remainder vest equally in equal annual installments over a period of three years from grant date. The total fair value of these options at grant date was approximately $161, which was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following average assumption: stock price of $16.63 per share, expected term of 5 years, volatility of 45%, dividend rate of 0% and risk-free interest rate of 3.4%. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of measurement corresponding with the expected term of the share option awards; the expected term represents the weighted-average period of time that share option awards granted are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules and historical participant exercise behavior; the expected volatility is based upon historical volatility of the Company’s Common Stock; and the expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends in the past and does not expect to pay dividends in the future.
F-16
The Company recognized $404 and $459 of stock-based compensation related to the vesting of these options during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, there was $110 of unvested stock-based compensation that will be recognized as expense in future periods as the options vest.
Warrants
The Company issued no warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. There are no outstanding warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
NOTE 8. ACQUISITION OF IRWIN NATURALS
On August 8, 2025 (“theClosing Date”), the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Irwin through an asset purchase transaction under Section 363 of the US Bankruptcy Code. Total consideration for the acquisition was $42,500. Of this amount, $29,750 was funded using proceeds from a new term loan provided by the Bank and $6,000 was funded from a new $10,000 revolving line of credit from the Bank, with the remainder funded from the Company’s available cash balances.
During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred $2,075 and $26, respectively, of transaction-related costs for the acquisition of Irwin.
The Company accounted for the acquisition as a business combination under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. The following table summarizes the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the date of acquisition, and is as follows:
Accounts receivable $ 7,306
Prepaid expense and other current assets 355
Right of use asset 487
Property and equipment 69
Other non-current assets 83
Accounts payable and accrued expense (2,056 )
Accrued expense and other current liabilities (5,240 )
Product returns (533 )
Lease liabilities (513 )
Net assets acquired $ 42,500
The purchase was intended to augment and diversify the Company’s product offerings and lineup. Key factors that contributed to the recorded intangible assets and goodwill were the opportunity to complement existing operations of the Company and the opportunity to generate future synergies within the nutritional supplement and wellness business.
Pro Forma Combined Financial Information (Unaudited) (In thousands)

NOTE 9 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY (INTEREST RATE SWAP)
On September 5, 2025, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge exposure to variability in cash flows associated with its variable-rate term loan (Note 6). The swap effectively converts approximately 50% of the Company’s term loan from variable to fixed.
The agreement had a notional amount of $20,000 at inception, amortizes in accordance with the underlying debt, and requires the Company to pay a fixed rate of 3.39% while receiving a variable rate based on SOFR. The agreement expires on August 8, 2030.
The Company designated the swap as a cash flow hedge under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recorded in Other Comprehensive Income and reclassified into interest expense as payments occur under the hedged debt. Any ineffective portion is recognized in current period earnings.
The fair value of the swap was a liability of $26 at December 31, 2025, which is presented as a derivative liability on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the effective portion of changes in fair value of the interest-rate swap decreased OCI by $26. The swap is measured under fair value guidance using Level 2 inputs. No hedge ineffectiveness was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2025.

The Company has assessed the realizability of the net deferred tax assets by considering the relevant positive and negative evidence available to determine whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considered all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and recent results of operations.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company has the following U.S. federal losses carried forward. U.S. federal losses incurred prior to 2018 have a carry forward of 20 years, subsequent losses can be carried forward indefinitely. The Canadian non-capital loss carry forwards expire between 2038 and 2044.

Utilization of net operating loss carryforwards in the U.S. may be subject to limitations in the event of a change in ownership as defined under U.S. IRC Section 382, and similar state provisions. An "ownership change" is generally defined as a cumulative change in the ownership interest of significant stockholders of more than 50 percentage points over a three-year period. In connection with the merger between the Company and one of its subsidiaries in 2015, the Company has evaluated its net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards under the provisions of U.S. IRC Section 382. The acquisition resulted in an ownership change under Section 382, subjecting the Company’s ability to utilize NOL carryforwards generated prior to the acquisition to an annual limitation. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has approximately $3,716 of federal NOL carryforwards, of which $1,416 may be utilized subject to the Section 382 limitation. Based on the annual limitation, management expects that $2,300 of these carryforwards may not be fully utilized prior to expiration.

The deferred tax liability relates primarily to intangible assets that are not deductible for tax purposes in the jurisdictions to which they relate. Deferred income taxes have not been recorded on the basis differences for investments in consolidated subsidiaries as these basis differences are indefinitely reinvested or will reverse in a non-taxable manner. Quantification of the deferred income tax liability, if any, associated with indefinitely reinvested basis differences is not practicable.
The Company operates in a number of tax jurisdictions and is subject to examination of its income tax returns by tax authorities in those jurisdictions who may challenge any item on these returns. Because the tax matters challenged by tax authorities are typically complex, the ultimate outcome of these challenges is uncertain. The Company recognizes the effects of uncertain tax positions in the consolidated financial statements after determining that it is more-likely-than-not the uncertain tax positions will be sustained. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has not recorded any uncertain tax positions or any accrued interest and penalties on the consolidated balance sheet. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded an immaterial amount of interest and penalties in the consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income.
