NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

March 30, 2025

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION

Parks! America, Inc. (“Parks!” or the “Company”) owns and operates through wholly owned subsidiaries three regional safari parks and is in the business of acquiring, developing and operating local and regional entertainment assets and attractions in the United States. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries are Wild Animal Safari, Inc. a Georgia corporation (“Wild Animal – Georgia”), Wild Animal, Inc., a Missouri corporation (“Wild Animal – Missouri”), and Aggieland-Parks, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Aggieland Wild Animal – Texas”). Wild Animal – Georgia owns and operates the Wild Animal Safari Pine Mountain located in Pine Mountain, Georgia (the “Georgia Park”). Wild Animal – Missouri owns and operates the Wild Animal Safari Springfield located in Strafford, Missouri (the “Missouri Park”). Aggieland Wild Animal – Texas owns and operates the Aggieland Safari located near Bryan/College Station, Texas (the “Texas Park”).

In 2005, the Company entered its current business with the purchase of an animal attraction in Pine Mountain, Georgia. Parks! America is domiciled in the state of Nevada and its headquarters is in Pine Mountain, Georgia. In 2008, the Company adopted its current name “Parks! America” and its current stock symbol “PRKA.”

Prior to and on May 1, 2025, the Company’s common stock traded on the OTCPink market. Effective May 2, 2025, the Company’s common stock is traded on the OTCQX market. As a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, effective on April 30, 2025, the Company’s common stock will be traded on a post-split basis under the symbol “PRKAD” for 20 trading days, including the effective date, after which it will revert to “PRKA.” See Note 10, Subsequent Event, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report for additional information.

The Company’s parks are open year-round and experience increased seasonal attendance, typically beginning in the latter half of March through early September. Combined third and fourth quarter Park revenue was 61.4% and 60.4% of annual Park revenue for the Company’s 2024 and 2023 fiscal years, respectively.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The information reflects all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods set forth herein. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full fiscal year. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2024 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on December 13, 2024.

Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries (Wild Animal – Georgia, Wild Animal – Missouri and Aggieland Wild Animal – Texas). All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

Change in Capital Structure: As described fully in Note 6, Stockholders Equity, effective April 30, 2025, the Company effected a 1-for-500 reverse stock split of the shares of the Company’s common stock, followed immediately by a 5-for-1 forward stock split of the shares of the Company’s common stock, herein referred to as the “Reverse/Forward Stock Split.” All share and per share amounts presented in the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes, including, but not limited to, shares issued and outstanding, dollar amounts of common stock, capital in excess of par, and earnings/(loss) per share, have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented in order to reflect this change in capital structure. There were no changes to the total number of authorized shares of common stock or their respective par values per share as a result of this change.

Accounting Method: The Company recognizes income and expenses based on the accrual method of accounting.

Estimates and Assumptions: Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenue and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were assumed in preparing these financial statements.

Fiscal Year End: The Company’s fiscal year end is the Sunday closest to September 30. For the 2025 fiscal year, September 28 will be the closest Sunday, and for the 2024 fiscal year, September 29 was the closest Sunday both with 52 weeks. This fiscal calendar aligns the Company’s fiscal periods closely with the seasonality of its business. The high season typically ends after the Labor Day holiday weekend. The period from October through early March is geared towards maintenance and preparation for the next busy season, which typically begins in the latter half of March through early September.

Financial and Concentrations Risk: The Company does not have any concentration or related financial credit risks. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which at times may exceed federally insured limits.

PARKS! AMERICA, INC. and SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

March 30, 2025

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Fair Value: Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, or an exit price. Inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value may be observable or unobservable, and valuation techniques used to measure fair value should maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels based on the ranks of the quality and reliability of inputs used to determine the fair values. Level 1 inputs consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs consist of quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and market-corroborated inputs which are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. Level 3 inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable. A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Assets and liabilities disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis include our long-term debt. As of March 30, 2025 and September 29, 2024, the fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was $3.30 million and $3.24 million, respectively. The measurement of the fair value of long-term debt is based upon inquiries of the financial institutions holding the respective loans and is considered a Level 2 fair value measurement. The respective carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents in deposit accounts which may at times exceed federally insured limits. As of March 30, 2025 and September 29, 2024, cash and cash equivalents consisted of cash on deposit and a money market account.

Short-term Investments: The Company periodically invests in certificates of deposit and classifies its certificates of deposit as cash and cash equivalents or short-term investments and reassesses the appropriateness of the classification of its investments at the end of each reporting period. Certificates of deposit held for investment with an original maturity date greater than 13 weeks are carried at amortized cost and reported as short-term investments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of March 30, 2025 the Company did not have any short-term investments. As of September 29, 2024, the Company had $835,074 in two certificates of deposit, including accrued interest, classified as short-term investments. These certificates of deposit secured lines of credit, as detailed in Note 5, Lines of Credit, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Accounts Receivable: The Company’s parks are principally a payment upfront business; therefore, the Company generally carries limited accounts receivable. The Company had $33,311, $63,784 and $36,172 of accounts receivable as of March 30, 2025, September 29, 2024 and October 1, 2023, respectively.

Inventory: Inventory consists of gift shop items, animal food, and concession and park supplies, and is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined based on the first-in, first-out method. The gross profit method is used to determine the change in gift shop inventory for interim periods. Inventories are reviewed and reconciled annually because inventory levels turn over rapidly. The Company had inventory of $404,337 and $372,401 as of March 30, 2025 and September 29, 2024, respectively.

Prepaid Expenses: The Company prepays certain expenses primarily due to legal or contractual requirements. The following is a breakdown of prepaid expenses:

	March 30, 2025		September 29, 2024
Prepaid insurance	$	111,563	$	272,213
Prepaid income taxes		39,455		118,695
Other prepaid expenses		46,751		5,400

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: The Company reviews its major assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Revenue Recognition: The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that it will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer.

Revenue from park admission fees is recognized at the point in time control transfers to the customer, which is generally when the customer accepts access to the park and the Company is entitled to payment. Park admission revenue for annual passes and memberships is deferred and recognized as revenue on a pro-rata basis over the term of the pass or membership. Park admission fee revenue from advance online ticket purchases is deferred until the customers’ visit to the parks. Advance online tickets can generally be used anytime during the one-year period from the date of purchase. Revenue from retail and concession sales is generally recognized upon the concurrent receipt of payment and delivery of goods to the customer. Sales taxes billed and collected are not included in revenue.

Deferred revenue, consisting of advance online admission tickets, season passes and memberships, was $129,037, $115,950 and $143,511 as of March 30, 2025, September 29, 2024 and October 1, 2023, respectively, which is included within Other current liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company periodically sells surplus animals created from the natural breeding process that occurs within the parks. Animal sales are reported as a separate revenue line item. Animal sales are recognized at a point in time when control transfers to the customer, which is generally determined when title, ownership and risk of loss pass to the customer, all of which generally occurs upon delivery of the animal. Based on the Company’s assessment of control indicators, sales are recognized when animals are delivered to the customer.

The Company provides disaggregation of revenue based on geography in Note 9, Business Segments, as it believes this best depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

Advertising and Marketing Costs: The Company expenses advertising and marketing costs as incurred. Advertising and marketing expense for the 13 weeks ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024 was $227,605 and $213,114, respectively and 26 weeks ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024 was $366,523 and $454,940, respectively, which is included in Selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations (Unaudited).

Stock Based Compensation: The Company recognizes stock-based compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period associated with the grant. The Company awards shares to its Board of Directors for service on the Board. The shares issued to the Board are “restricted” and are not to be re-sold unless an exemption is available, such as the exemption afforded by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense based on the fair market value at the time of the grant. The Company typically awards its annual Director compensation around the end of each calendar year. Stock-based compensation expense for the 13 weeks ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024 was $0 and $9,168, respectively, and 26 weeks ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024 was $0 and $18,337, respectively, which is included in Selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited).

A Stock Option and Award Plan (the “Plan”) providing for incentive stock options and performance bonus awards for executives, employees, and directors was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on February 1, 2005, however, the Plan has not been submitted to the stockholders for approval. The Plan sets aside five million (5,000,000) shares for the award of stock options, including qualified incentive stock options and performance stock bonuses. To date, no grants or awards have been made pursuant to the Plan and the Company did not submit the Plan for consideration to the Company’s stockholders at its last meeting of stockholders.

Transactions with Related Parties: The Company’s Board of Directors closely monitors and approves transactions with related parties. A portion of the Company’s long-term debt is secured by a cash collateral reserve of $2.5 million established by Focused Compounding. See Note 4, Long-term Debt, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report for additional information. As of March 30, 2025, Focused Compounding owned 41.36% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. Focused Compounding is controlled by Geoffrey Gannon and Andrew Kuhn, who are each on the Company’s Board of Directors and Mr. Gannon is the Company’s President.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Income Taxes: The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws. Management periodically reviews the Company’s deferred tax assets to determine whether their value can be realized based on available evidence. A valuation allowance is established when management believes it is more likely than not, that such tax benefits will not be realized. Changes in valuation allowances from period to period are included in the Company’s income tax provision in the period of change.

The Company follows the guidance in FASB ASC 740 with respect to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more-likely-than-not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more-likely-than-not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Company has no unrecognized tax benefits under guidance related to tax uncertainties. Any tax penalties or interest expense will be recognized in income tax expense. No interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits were accrued as of March 30, 2025 or September 29, 2024.

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share: Basic net income (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares actually outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding as if shares had been issued on the exercise any common share rights unless the exercise becomes anti-dilutive.

Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the applicable weighted average number of common shares outstanding in each period.

Dividend Policy: The Company has not yet adopted a policy regarding payment of dividends.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted:

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU requires enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker that are included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, and requires all annual disclosures currently required by Topic 280 to be included in interim periods. ASU No. 2023-07 is to be applied retrospectively for all periods presented in the financial statements and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which includes requirements that an entity disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that are greater than five percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income (or loss) by the applicable statutory income rate. The standard also requires that entities disclose income (or loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (or benefit) and income tax expense (or benefit) each disaggregated between domestic and foreign. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2023-09 on the Company’s consolidated financial statement disclosures.

ASU 2024-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted and can be applied on either a prospective or retroactive basis. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2024-02 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

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”). Under ASU 2024-03, a public entity would be required to disclose information about purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, and depletion for each income statement line item that contains those expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. ASU 2024-03 allows for early adoption and requires either prospective adoption to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of ASU 2024-03 or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2024-03 on the Company’s consolidated financial statement disclosures.

Except as noted, the Company does not expect recently issued accounting standards or interpretations to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, cash flows or financial statement disclosures.

NOTE 3. CONTESTED PROXY AND RELATED MATTERS

On December 22, 2023, Focused Compounding Fund, LP (together with the participants in its solicitation, “Focused Compounding”) submitted documents to the Company providing notice as to a demand that the Company hold a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”). The Special Meeting was held for the purpose of asking stockholders to consider and vote upon five proposals, including a proposal for the removal of all directors currently serving on the Board of Directors and a proposal for the election of a new Board of Directors comprised entirely of Focused Compounding’s slate of three candidates. The Special Meeting was held on February 26, 2024 and Focused Compounding’s proposal to reconstitute the Board of Directors received the votes of a majority of shareholders who voted, but not a sufficient majority for approval under Nevada law, so it did not pass.

On January 19, 2024 following Focused Compounding’s submission to the Company, the Company adopted a rights plan (the “Rights Plan”), which provided, among other things, that if specified events occurred, the Company’s stockholders would be entitled to purchase additional shares of the Company’s common stock. On January 18, 2025, the Rights Plan expired pursuant to its terms.

On March 1, 2024, Focused Compounding filed a Complaint in the Eighth Judicial District Court of Clark County against the Company and each of the members of its Board of Directors, alleging that the defendants were contemplating efforts to entrench themselves as members of the Board.

On June 6, 2024 the Company held its annual meeting of stockholders (the “2024 Annual Meeting”). The purpose of the 2024 Annual Meeting was for the Company’s stockholders to elect seven nominees to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), as well as consider additional proposals. The Company and Focused Compounding each submitted proxies soliciting the Company’s stockholders to vote for their respective proposed director nominees. The nominees for director included six nominees proposed by the Company and four nominees proposed by Focused Compounding. At the 2024 Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders elected four nominees proposed by Focused Compounding and three nominees proposed by the Company.

On June 14, 2024, the Company announced that Lisa Brady stepped down as its President and Chief Executive Officer, and the Company’s Board had appointed Geoffrey Gannon as the Company’s President. Mr. Gannon is also the Portfolio Manager at Focused Compounding.

The Company engaged legal counsel specializing in activist stockholder matters, as well as several other consultants, during this proxy contest. During the fiscal year ended September 29, 2024, the Company incurred $2,090,810 of expenses associated with this contested proxy and related matters, partially offset by $50,000 of insurance proceeds. During the 13 weeks ending March 30, 2025, the Company received approximately $567,100 of insurance proceeds under its directors and officers insurance related to this matter, which were used to pay certain bills associated with the contested proxy and related matters. As of March 30, 2025, the Company had approximately $360,500 of unpaid bills associated with the contested proxy and related matters.

NOTE 4. LONG-TERM DEBT

NOTE 6. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock

At the annual shareholder meeting held on March 7, 2025, the stockholders voted to approve the amendments to the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to effect a 1 for 500 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock followed immediately by an amendment to the Company’s Restated Articles of Incorporate to effect a 5 for 1 forward stock split of the Company’s Common Stock, herein referred to as the “Reverse/Forward Stock Split”.

On April 1, 2025, the Board of Directors authorized the implementation of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

On April 10, 2025, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (“Charter”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to effect a 1-for-500 reverse stock split of the shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share followed immediately by the filing of a certificate of amendment to the Charter with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to effect a 5-for-1 forward stock split of the Company Common Stock.

The immediate goal of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split is to reduce excessive administrative costs associated with having a disproportionately large number of stockholders who own relatively few shares.

The Company did not issue fractional shares in connection with the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. Instead, the Company will pay cash (without interest) to any stockholder who would be entitled to receive a fractional share as a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split as follows:

	(i)	Stockholders who hold fewer than 500 shares immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split shall be paid in cash (without interest) an amount equal to such number of shares of Company Common Stock held multiplied by the average of the closing sales prices of the Company Common Stock quoted on the National Quotation Bureau pink sheets for the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Effective Date of the Reverse Stock Split; and
	(ii)	Any remaining stockholders who would have been entitled to receive fractions of a share as a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split shall be paid in cash (without interest) an amount equal to such fractions multiplied by the average of the closing sales prices of the Company Common Stock quoted on the National Quotation Bureau pink sheets for the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the effective date of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split (with such average closing sales prices being adjusted to give effect to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split).

All share outstanding amounts and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the Reverse/Forward Stock Split that became effective on April 30, 2025. See Note 10, Subsequent Events, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report for further information about the Reverse/Forward stock split.

Stock-based compensation

Shares of common stock issued for service to the Company are valued based on market price on the date of the award.

On December 4, 2023, the Company declared its annual compensation award to seven directors for their service on the Board of Directors. Seven directors were awarded $10,000 each and three directors received a total of $10,000 for serving as committee chairpersons and as a non-employee officer, with such compensation to be paid all in shares of the Company’s common stock, all in cash or a combination thereof, at each director’s election. Five directors elected to receive compensation in all shares and two directors elected to receive compensation in all cash. Based on the closing stock price of $0.275 per share on December 4, 2023, a total of 209,088 shares were issued on February 2, 2024. The total compensation award cost of $80,000, comprised of $57,500 in stock-based compensation and $22,500 of cash payments, was recorded for the 13 weeks ended December 31, 2023. These costs are included within selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited).

Officers, directors and their controlled entities own approximately 41.97% of the outstanding common stock of the Company as of March 30, 2025.

NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Effective on April 30, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, the Company effected a 1-for-500 reverse stock split of the shares of the Company’s common stock, followed immediately by a 5-for-1 forward stock split of the shares of the Company’s common stock at 5:01 p.m. Eastern Time herein referenced as the “Reverse/Forward Stock Split”.

Prior to and on May 1, 2025, the Company’s common stock was traded on the OTCPink market. Effective May 2, 2025, the Company’s common stock is traded on the OTCQX market. As a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, the Company’s common stock will trade on a post-split basis under the symbol “PRKAD” for 20 trading days, including the effective date of April 30, 2025, after which it will revert to “PRKA.”

No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. Instead, the Company will pay cash (without interest) to any stockholder who would be entitled to receive a fractional share as a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split:

	(i)	Stockholders who hold fewer than 500 shares immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split shall be paid in cash (without interest) an amount equal to such number of shares of Company Common Stock held multiplied by the average of the closing sales prices of the Company Common Stock quoted on the National Quotation Bureau pink sheets for the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Effective Date of the Reverse Stock Split; and
	(ii)	Any remaining stockholders who would have been entitled to receive fractions of a share as a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split shall be paid in cash (without interest) an amount equal to such fractions multiplied by the average of the closing sales prices of the Company Common Stock quoted on the National Quotation Bureau pink sheets for the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the effective date of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split (with such average closing sales prices being adjusted to give effect to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split).

All share outstanding amounts have been adjusted to reflect the Reverse/Forward Stock Split that became effective on April 30, 2025. See Note 6, Stockholders Equity, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report for further information about the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

Overview

Through our wholly owned subsidiaries, we own and operate three regional safari parks and are in the business of acquiring, developing and operating local and regional entertainment assets in the United States. Our wholly owned subsidiaries are Wild Animal Safari, Inc., a Georgia corporation (“Wild Animal – Georgia”), Wild Animal, Inc., a Missouri corporation (“Wild Animal – Missouri”), and Aggieland-Parks, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Aggieland Wild Animal – Texas”). Wild Animal – Georgia owns and operates the Wild Animal Safari Pine Mountain located in Pine Mountain, Georgia (the “Georgia Park”). Wild Animal – Missouri owns and operates the Wild Animal Safari Springfield located in Strafford, Missouri (the “Missouri Park”). Aggieland Wild Animal – Texas owns and operates the Aggieland Safari located near Bryan/College Station, Texas (the “Texas Park”).

Our parks are open year-round and experience increased seasonal attendance, typically beginning in the latter half of March through early September. Combined third and fourth quarter Park revenue was 61.4% and 60.4% of annual Park revenue for Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023, respectively.

Contested Proxy and Related Matters

On January 19, 2024, following Focused Compounding’s submission to the Company, we adopted a rights plan (the “Rights Plan”), which provided, among other things, that if specified events occurred, our stockholders would be entitled to purchase additional shares of our common stock. On January 18, 2025, the Rights Plan expired pursuant to its terms.

On March 1, 2024, Focused Compounding filed a Complaint in the Eighth Judicial District Court of Clark County against the Company and each of the members of our Board of Directors, alleging that the defendants were contemplating efforts to entrench themselves as members of the Board of Directors. On June 20, 2024, Focused Compounding, the Company and the named defendants agreed to a stipulation dismissing with prejudice any and all claims by and between the parties outlined in the initial Complaint in light of the results of the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders held on June 6, 2024.

On June 6, 2024 we held our annual meeting of stockholders (the “2024 Annual Meeting”). The purpose of the 2024 Annual Meeting was for the Company’s stockholders to elect seven nominees to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), as well as consider additional proposals. The Company and Focused Compounding each submitted proxies soliciting the Company’s stockholders to vote for their respective proposed director nominees. The nominees for director included six nominees proposed by the Company and four nominees proposed by Focused Compounding. At the 2024 Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders elected four nominees proposed by Focused Compounding and three nominees proposed by the Company.

We engaged legal counsel specializing in activist stockholder matters, as well as several other consultants, during this proxy contest and for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2024, we incurred $2,040,810 of associated expenses, net. We have been engaged in discussions with our directors and officers insurance carrier regarding potential insurance coverage related to the expenses associated with the contested proxy and related matters. During the 13 weeks ending March 30, 2025, we received approximately $567,100 of insurance proceeds under our directors and officers insurance, which we used to pay certain bills associated with the contested proxy and related matters. As of March 30, 2025, we had approximately $360,500 of unpaid bills associated with the contested proxy and related matters. See Note 3, Contested Proxy and Related Matters, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Reverse/Forward Stock Split

On April 1, 2025, the Board of Directors authorized the implementation of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

	(i)	Stockholders who hold fewer than 500 shares immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split shall be paid in cash (without interest) an amount equal to such number of shares of Company Common Stock held multiplied by the average of the closing sales prices of the Company Common Stock quoted on the National Quotation Bureau pink sheets for the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Effective Date of the Reverse Stock Split; and
	(ii)	Any remaining stockholders who would have been entitled to receive fractions of a share as a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split shall be paid in cash (without interest) an amount equal to such fractions multiplied by the average of the closing sales prices of the Company Common Stock quoted on the National Quotation Bureau pink sheets for the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the effective date of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split (with such average closing sales prices being adjusted to give effect to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split).

Discussion and Analysis

Consolidated and Segment Results of Operations for Second Quarter 2025 as Compared to Second Quarter 2024

We manage our operations on an individual park location basis. Discrete financial information is maintained for each park and provided to our President, as Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), for review and as a basis for decision making. The primary performance measures used by the CODM to allocate resources is segment income/(loss), defined as park earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization, as well as free cash flow. We use segment income/(loss) and free cash flow as a measure of profitability to gauge segment performance because we believe this measure is the most indicative of performance trends and overall earnings potential of each segment.

In mid-January 2024 we completed the strategic switch to a new ticketing platform which we believe improves the guest experience while also providing improved functionality for our park customer services teams. While this change had a net neutral impact on our profitability, we no longer directly upcharge customer transaction fees which we previously reported in Park revenue. Excluding customer transaction fees had an immaterial impact on our total Park revenue during Second Quarter 2024, therefore we did not present pro-forma Park revenue for Second Quarter 2024 compared to Second Quarter 2025. We did present pro-forma Park revenue excluding customer transaction fees for Year-to-Date 2024 for comparison to Year-to-Date 2025.

Results of Operations

Second Quarter 2025 compared with Second Quarter 2024

Total Revenue and Park Revenue

Total revenue was $2.00 million in Second Quarter 2025, an increase of $43,821 or 2.2%, compared to $1.96 million in Second Quarter 2024.

Park revenue was $1.98 million in Second Quarter 2025, an increase of $55,105 or 2.9%, compared to $1.92 million in Second Quarter 2024.

Animal sales were $22,676 in Second Quarter 2025, a decrease of $11,284 or 33.2%, compared to $33,960 in Second Quarter 2024. The decrease is driven by a decrease in animal sales at our Texas Park offset by an increase in animal sales at our Missouri Park due to timing of animal sales year over year.

Georgia Park revenue was $1.04 million in Second Quarter 2025, an increase of $2,662 or 0.3% compared to $1.04 million in Second Quarter 2024. Our Georgia Park revenue remained flat compared to Second Quarter 2024 due to the impact of the timing of seasonal Spring Break dates. During Second Quarter 2025 the Spring Break dates were three-consecutive weeks with two of the three weeks of revenue shifting into Third Quarter 2025 compared to Second Quarter 2024 with Spring Break dates for two-consecutive weeks and only one week of revenue shifting into Third Quarter 2024.

Missouri Park revenue was $361,078 in Second Quarter 2025, a decrease of $39,655 or 9.9% compared to $400,733 in Second Quarter 2024. During Second Quarter 2025, our Missouri Park experienced adverse weather conditions that required the park to close and experienced an increase in rainy and colder than average weather temperatures which negatively affected attendance compared to Second Quarter 2024. In addition, animal food sales decreased during Second Quarter 2025 compared to Second Quarter 2024 driven by lower attendance.

Texas Park revenue was $579,136 in Second Quarter 2025, an increase of $92,098 or 18.9% compared to $487,038 in Second Quarter 2024. The increase in revenue was primarily increased admission revenue during Spring Break driven by a positive response to new marketing strategies. In addition, food service revenue increased with increased attendance offset by a decrease in animal food sales with decision by management to include animal feed in the admission cost of select admission packages.

Our Georgia Park attendance decreased approximately 11.9% during Second Quarter 2025 compared to Second Quarter 2024. During Second Quarter 2025, our Georgia Park experienced adverse weather conditions and a two-day power outage that required the park to remain closed as well as rainy and colder than average weather temperatures that negatively impacted attendance. The shift of the strongest attendance days during the seasonal Spring Break dates into Third Quarter 2025 also negatively impacted attendance.

During Second Quarter 2025, attendance at our Missouri Park decreased by approximately 6.8% compared to Second Quarter 2024 driven by adverse weather conditions that required the park to close and an increase in rainy and colder than average weather temperatures which negatively affected attendance.

Our Texas Park attendance increased 20.4% in Second Quarter 2025 compared to Second Quarter 2024 driven by an increase in Spring Break attendance which can be attributed to the positive response to new marketing strategies.

Segment Income

Our consolidated segment income was $222,421 in Second Quarter 2025, a decrease of $45,240 or 16.9%, from $267,661 in Second Quarter 2024.

Our Georgia Park segment income was $148,542 in Second Quarter 2025, a decrease of $37,103 from $185,645 in Second Quarter 2024. The decrease is primarily driven by higher cost of animal feed sales and higher operating expenses, primarily park maintenance costs offset by lower employee benefit costs, transaction processing fees and outside services.

Our Missouri Park segment income was $6,806 in Second Quarter 2025, a decrease of $44,134 from $50,940 in Second Quarter 2024. The decrease is primarily driven by a decrease in Park revenue and an increase in staffing costs offset by an increase in animal sales.

Our Texas Park segment income was $67,073 in Second Quarter 2025, an increase of $35,997, from $31,076 in Second Quarter 2024. The increase is primarily driven by an increase in Park revenue, primarily during Spring Break, lower operating expenses, primarily park maintenance costs and outside services offset by higher staffing costs, advertising and higher animal expense primarily due to the cost of an animal insurance policy purchased for a limited policy period for the transportation of a giraffe.

Corporate Expenses

Corporate expenses were $301,482 in Second Quarter 2025, an increase of $108,760 from $192,722 in Second Quarter 2024 primarily driven by higher salaries and wages and higher professional fees.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense

Depreciation and amortization expense was $220,315 in Second Quarter 2025, an increase of $1,722 from $218,593 in Second Quarter 2024 primarily driven by higher depreciation expense at our Georgia Park for capital expenditures placed in service during Second Quarter 2025 offset by lower depreciation expense at our Missouri Park with assets becoming fully depreciated.

Contested Proxy and Related Matters

Contested Proxy and Related Matters, net was $0 in Second Quarter 2025 compared to $1,164,612 in Second Quarter 2024. See Note 3, Contested Proxy and Related Matter, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report for additional information.

(Loss) on asset disposals, net

Loss on asset disposals, net was $0 in Second Quarter 2025 compared to $21,337 in Second Quarter 2024. Second Quarter 2024 primarily includes animal deaths prior to the end of their estimated life expectancy.

Other Income, net

Other income, net was $25,323 in Second Quarter 2025, a decrease of $8,703 from $34,026 in Second Quarter 2024. The decrease is driven by lower interest income related to the maturity of certificates of deposit during the First Quarter 2025 and lower average money market balances compared to Second Quarter 2024.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $54,709 in Second Quarter 2025, an increase of $5,562 from $49,147 in Second Quarter 2024. The increase is driven by a higher interest rate on the 2025 Term Loan refinanced during the First Quarter 2025 offset by a decrease in the 2021 Term Loan interest expense due to lower principal balances.

Income Taxes

We reported a loss before income taxes of $328,762 in Second Quarter 2025. Based on a year-to-date blend of federal and state of Georgia income before income taxes, we recorded an income tax benefit of $81,000 for the Second Quarter 2025. We reported a loss before income taxes of $1,344,724 in Second Quarter 2024. Based on a year-to-date blend of federal and State of Georgia pre-tax income, we recorded an income tax benefit of $344,400 for Second Quarter 2024.

Net Loss and Loss Per Share

As a result of the above factors, Net loss was $247,762 or $0.33 per basic share and per fully diluted share in Second Quarter 2025 compared to Net loss of $1,000,324 or $1.32 per basic share and per fully diluted share in Second Quarter 2024.

Year-to-Date 2025 compared with Year-to-Date 2024

Total Revenue and Park Revenue

Our total revenue was $3.77 million for Year-to-Date 2025, a decrease of $83,346 or 2.2%, compared to $3.86 million during Year-to-Date 2024.

Our total Park revenue was $3.70 million for Year-to-Date 2025, a decrease of $35,099 or 0.9%, compared to $3.73 million during Year-to-Date 2024.

Animal sales were $74,104 for Year-to-Date 2025, a decrease of $48,247 compared to $122,351 during Year-to-Date 2024 primarily driven by a decrease in animal sales at our Texas Park due to timing of animal sales.

In mid-January 2024 we completed the strategic switch to a new ticketing platform which we believe improves the guest experience while also providing improved functionality for our park customer services teams. While this change had a net neutral impact on our profitability, we no longer directly upcharge customer transaction fees which we previously reported in Park revenue. On a pro forma basis, adjusting for the change to exclude customer transaction fees in Park revenue, our total Park revenue Year-to-date 2025 decreased by approximately $17,701 or 0.5% compared to Year-to-Date 2024.

Georgia Park revenue was $2.12 million for Year-to-Date 2025, a decrease of $130,590 or 5.8% compared to $2.29 million during Year-to-Date 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by lower admissions driven by the shift in seasonal Spring Break dates. Spring Break dates during Second Quarter 2025 were three-consecutive weeks with two of the three weeks of revenue shifting into Third Quarter 2025 compared to Second Quarter 2024 with Spring Break dates for two-consecutive weeks and only one week of revenue shifting into Third Quarter 2024. In addition, food service revenue decreased with lower admissions as well as lower customer transaction fee revenue as Year-to-Date 2025 excluded customer transaction fees in revenue due to the switch to a new ticketing platform.

Missouri Park revenue was $636,810 for Year-to-Date 2025, an increase of $11,806 or 1.9% compared to $625,004 during Year-to-Date 2024. The increase was primarily attributed to higher admissions offset by lower animal food revenue and lower customer transaction fee revenue as Year-to-Date 2025 excluded customer transaction fees in revenue due to the switch to a new ticketing platform.

Texas Park revenue was $939,515 for Year-to-Date 2025, an increase of $83,685 or 9.8% compared to $855,830 during Year-to-Date 2024. The increase in revenue was driven by higher admissions during the Spring Break season with a related increase in food service revenue offset by a decrease in animal food sales with decision by management to include animal feed in the admission pricing of select admission packages, as well as lower customer transaction fee revenue as Year-to-Date 2025 excluded customer transaction fees in revenue due to the switch to a new ticketing platform.

On a pro forma basis, adjusting to exclude customer transaction fees in Park revenue, Year-to-Date 2025 our Georgia Park revenue decreased by $94,126 or 4.2%. The Missouri Park revenue increased by $19,578 or 3.2% and our Texas Park revenue increased $92,249 or 10.9%.

Our Georgia Park attendance during Year-to-Date 2025 decreased approximately 12.8% compared to Year-to-Date 2024. The shift of the strongest attendance days during the seasonal Spring Break dates into Third Quarter 2025 also negatively impacted attendance. We believe attendance at our Georgia Park continues to be negatively impacted by increased competition in the greater Atlanta market.

Our Missouri Park attendance during Year-to-Date 2025 increased by approximately 2.3% compared to Year-to-Date 2024.

Our Texas Park provided customers with free attendance promotions during First Quarter 2025 and we do not believe Year-to-Date 2025 attendance is comparable to Year-to-Date 2024.

Segment Income

Our consolidated segment income was $455,140 for Year-to-Date 2025, a decrease of $35,570 or 7.2%, from $490,710 during Year-to-Date 2024.

Our Georgia Park segment income was $482,488 for Year-to-Date 2025, a decrease of $68,999, from $551,487 during Year-to-Date 2024. The decrease is driven by lower Park revenue and higher park maintenance costs, offset by lower operating expenses, primarily advertising, transaction processing fees and outside services.

Our Missouri Park segment loss was $42,422 for Year-to-Date 2025, a decrease of $13,406, from segment loss of $55,828 during Year-to-Date 2024. The decrease is driven by an increase in Park revenue and animal sales, lower operating expenses, primarily advertising, transaction processing fees, animal expenses and events and promotions offset by higher staffing costs.

Our Texas Park segment income was $15,074 for Year-to-Date 2024, an increase of $20,023, from segment loss of $4,949 during Year-to-Date 2024. The increase is driven by increased Park revenue, primarily during Spring Break, lower operating expense primarily advertising, park maintenance costs and outside services offset by higher staffing costs and higher animal expenses primarily due to an animal insurance policy purchased for a limited policy period for the transportation of a giraffe.

Corporate Expenses

Corporate expenses were $571,834 for Year-to-Date 2025, an increase of $61,426 compared to $510,408 during Year-to-Date 2024. The increase was driven by higher professional fees, offset by lower salaries and wages, lower director fees and stock-based compensation expense.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense

Depreciation and amortization expense was $428,863 for Year-to-Date 2025, a decrease of $12,933 from $441,796 during Year-to-Date 2024. The decrease was driven by lower depreciation expense for our Texas Park and Missouri Park due to assets becoming fully depreciated and asset disposals in Fiscal 2024.

Contested Proxy and Related Matters, net

Contested Proxy and Related Matters, net was a credit of $567,157 for Year-to-Date 2025 resulting from the receipt of insurance proceeds from our directors and officers insurance policy associated with the contested proxy and related matters in the amount of $567,157 during First Quarter 2025. Year-to-date 2024, we recorded contested proxy and related matters, net expense of $1,291,252. See Note 3, Contested Proxy and Related Matters, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Gain (loss) on asset disposals, net

Gain on asset disposals, net was $52 for Year-to-Date 2025 compared to Loss on assets disposals, net of $35,754 during Year-to-Date 2024. Year-to-Date 2024 primarily includes animal deaths prior to the end of their estimated life expectancy and disposal of certain assets no longer useful to the business or deemed too costly to maintain or repair.

Other Income, net

Other income, net was $38,705 for Year-to-Date 2025, a decrease of $31,208 from $69,913 during Year-to-Date 2024. The decrease is driven by lower interest income related to the maturity of certificates of deposit during First Quarter 2025 and lower average money market balances compared to Year-to-Date 2024 and lower non-operating expenses.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $112,178 for Year-to-Date 2025, an increase of $11,586 from $100,592 in Year-to-Date 2024. The increase is driven by a higher interest rate on the 2025 Term Loan refinanced during First Quarter 2025 offset by a decrease in the 2021 Term Loan due to lower principal balances.

Income Taxes

We reported a loss before income taxes of $51,821 for Year-to-Date 2025. Based on a year-to-date blend of federal and state of Georgia income before income taxes, we recorded an income tax expense of $2,900 for Year-to-Date 2025. We reported a loss before income taxes of $1,819,179 for Year-to-Date 2024. Based on a year-to-date blend of federal and State of Georgia pre-tax income, we recorded an income tax benefit of $449,600 for Year-to-Date 2024.

Net Loss and Loss Per Share

As a result of the above factors, Net loss was $54,721 or $0.07 per basic share and per fully diluted share for Year-to-Date 2025 compared to Net loss of $1,369,579 or $1.81 per basic share and per fully diluted share for Year-to-Date 2024.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP, for purposes of evaluating operating performance, we report the following non-GAAP measures: Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA.

We believe presenting non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors, allowing them to assess how the business performed excluding the effects of significant non-recurring and non-operational items. We believe the use of the non-GAAP financial measures facilitates comparing the results being reported against past and future results by eliminating amounts that we believe are not comparable between periods and assists investors in evaluating the effectiveness of our operations and underlying business trends in a manner that is consistent with management’s own methods for evaluating business performance.

The methods we use to calculate our non-GAAP financial measures may differ significantly from methods other companies use to compute similar measures. As a result, any non-GAAP financial measures presented herein may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies. Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA should not be used by investors or other third parties as the sole basis for formulating investment decisions as these measures may exclude a number of important cash and non-cash recurring items.

Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) excluding significant non-recurring or non-operational items as set forth below. While adjusted net income (loss) is a non-GAAP measurement, management believes that it is an important indicator of operating performance and useful to investors. Other significant non-recurring and non-operational items, while periodically affecting our results, may vary significantly from period to period and have disproportionate effects in a given period, which affects comparability of results and are described below:

	⁽²⁾	Amounts have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split and forward stock split that became effective on April 30, 2025. Refer to Note 6, Stockholders Equity and Note 10, Subsequent Events for further information about the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

While Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measurement, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful measure as it is widely used by analysts, investors and comparable companies in the entertainment and attractions industry to evaluate our operating performance on a consistent basis, as well as more easily compare our results with those of other companies in our industry. We also believe Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful measure of park-level operating profitability. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our operating results and is not intended to be a substitute for operating income, net income or cash flows from operating activities as defined under GAAP.

Other significant items, while periodically affecting our results, may vary significantly from period to period and have disproportionate effects in a given period, which affects comparability of results and are described below:

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Financial Condition and Liquidity

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated by operations and borrowings under our loan agreements. Historically, our slow season starts after Labor Day in September and runs until Spring Break, which typically begins toward the middle to end of March. The first and second quarters of our fiscal year have historically generated negative cash flow, requiring us to use cash generated from prior fiscal years, as well as borrowing on a seasonal basis, to fund operations and prepare our parks for the busy season during the third and fourth quarters of our fiscal year.

Our working capital was $1.22 million as of March 30, 2025, compared to $1.60 million as of September 29, 2024. The decrease in working capital primarily reflects a reduction in accounts payable as a result of the contested proxy insurance proceeds, offset by cash used for capital spending and scheduled term loan payments.

Total long-term debt, including current maturities, as of March 30, 2025 was $3.37 million compared to $3.50 million as of September 29, 2024. The decrease in total long-term debt is primarily the result of scheduled term loan principal payments paid during Year-to-Date 2025.

As of March 30, 2025, we had stockholders’ equity of $13.89 million and total loan debt of $3.37 million, resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.24 to 1.0, compared to stockholders’ equity of $13.95 million and total loan debt of $3.50 million resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.25 to 1.0 as of September 29, 2024.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $162,671 during Year-to-Date 2025, compared to $255,259 during Year-to-Date 2024. The $92,588 decrease in cash used in operating was attributed to the $1.3 million decrease in net loss offset by changes in cash used for working capital includes the change in prepaid assets related to the Federal income tax refund received during Second Quarter 2025 as well as accounts payable, as our directors and officers insurance proceeds gain was used to pay down accounts payable associated with the contested proxy and related matters. See Note 3, Contested Proxy and Related Matters, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $223,943 during Year-to-Date 2025, compared to $1,443,997 during Year-to-Date 2024 resulting in a net decrease of $1,220,054. Our investing activity Year-to-Date 2025 included cash provided of $838,442 from the maturity of short-term investments in certificates of deposit during First Quarter 2025. Our investing activity for Year-to-Date 2024 included cash used of $1.0 million for the purchase of short-term investments in certificates of deposit during First Quarter 2024. Our capital spending for Year-to-Date 2025 was $1.1 million compared to $0.5 million during Year-to-Date 2024. The increase in capital spending is attributed to capital improvements, primarily construction of a new restroom facility and animal exhibit improvements, at our Georgia Park.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $129,129 during Year-to-Date 2025, compared to $387,511 during Year-to-Date 2024 resulting in a decrease of $258,382. During Year-to-Date 2025, the 2020 Term Loan was refinanced with the 2025 Term Loan during First Quarter 2025 resulting in net cash provided of $110,456 offset by payments of $239,585 for scheduled term loan principal payments and term loan refinancing fees. Year-to-Date 2024 primarily included payments of $382,511 for scheduled term loan principal payments.

Borrowing Agreements

On September 30, 2024, Aggieland-Parks, Inc. completed a refinancing transaction (the “2025 Refinancing”) with Cendera Bank N.A. (“Cendera”). The 2025 Refinancing included a term loan in the original principal amount of $2.5 million (the “2025 Term Loan). The 2025 Term Loan bears interest at a daily adjusted rate equal to the Prime Rate minus 0.5%. As of March 30, 2025 the effective interest rate was at 7.0%. The 2025 Term Loan has a term of 10 years, with a 15-year amortization, and a balloon payment of the outstanding principal balance due September 30, 2034. The initial monthly loan payment is $23,200. Aggieland-Parks, Inc., paid approximately $60,716 of fees and expenses in connection with the 2025 Term Loan. The 2025 Term Loan is secured by substantially all the assets of Aggieland-Parks, Inc., as well as a cash collateral reserve of $2.5 million established by Focused Compounding Fund, LP, with Cendera. Geoffrey Gannon and Andrew Kuhn control Focused Compounding Fund, LP, and each serve on the Board of the Company, and Mr. Gannon is the Company’s President. Focused Compounding did not receive a fee or any other benefit in connection with establishing the above-described cash collateral reserve. See Note 4, Long-term Debt, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Subsequent Events

	(i)	Stockholders who hold fewer than 500 shares immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split shall be paid in cash (without interest) an amount equal to such number of shares of Company Common Stock held multiplied by the average of the closing sales prices of the Company Common Stock quoted on the National Quotation Bureau pink sheets for the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Effective Date of the Reverse Stock Split; and
	(ii)	Any remaining stockholders who would have been entitled to receive fractions of a share as a result of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split shall be paid in cash (without interest) an amount equal to such fractions multiplied by the average of the closing sales prices of the Company Common Stock quoted on the National Quotation Bureau pink sheets for the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the effective date of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split (with such average closing sales prices being adjusted to give effect to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split).

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preceding discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Our significant accounting policies are set forth in Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies, which should be reviewed as they are integral to understanding results of operations and financial position. The Parks! America, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2024 includes additional information about us, and our operations, financial condition, critical accounting policies and accounting estimates, and should be read in conjunction with this Quarterly Report.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a “smaller reporting company” we are not required to provide this information under this item pursuant to Regulation S-K.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Parks! America, Inc. (the “Registrant”) maintains “controls and procedures,” as such term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“the Exchange Act”) in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated thereunder, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Registrant’s Exchange Act filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, the Registrant’s management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and in reaching a reasonable level of assurance, the Registrant’s management was necessarily required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

With the participation of its principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Registrant, the Registrant’s management has evaluated the effectiveness of the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report. Based upon the evaluation, the Registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level.

In addition, there were no changes in the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the Registrant’s fiscal quarter ended March 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are not a party to any pending legal proceedings, nor are any of our properties the subject of a pending legal proceeding that is not in the ordinary course of business or otherwise material to the financial condition of its business. None of our directors, officers or affiliates is involved in a proceeding adverse to our business or has a material interest adverse to our business.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

You should read the MD&A together with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes, each included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, in conjunction with the Parks! America, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2024 filed with the SEC on December 13, 2024. Some of the information contained in the MD&A or set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, including information with respect to our plans and strategies for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.

Except as noted below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2024 filed with the SEC on December 13, 2024.

Our Rights Plan expired pursuant to its terms.

On January 19, 2024, we adopted a Rights Plan which provided, among other things, that if specified events occurred, our stockholders would be entitled to purchase additional shares of our common stock. On January 18, 2025, the Rights Plan expired pursuant to its terms, and has not been reinstated or replaced; however, the Board may, subject to its fiduciary duties under applicable law, choose to implement a similar plan in the future.

The ultimate effect of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split on the market price of our common stock cannot be predicted with any certainty.

At the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders on March 7, 2025, the stockholders of the Company approved the filings of the Certificates of Amendment to effect the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. On April 1, 2025, the Board of Directors approved the execution of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split.

The ultimate effect of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split on the market price of our common stock cannot be predicted with any certainty, and we cannot assure you that the Reverse/Forward Stock Split will result in any or all of the expected benefits. While the reduction in the number of outstanding shares of our common stock increased the market price of our common stock we cannot assure you that the Reverse/Forward Stock Split will result in any permanent or sustained increase in the market price of our common stock. The market price of our common stock depends on multiple factors, many of which are unrelated to the number of shares outstanding, including our business and financial performance, general market conditions, and prospects for future success, any of which could have a counteracting effect to the Reverse/Forward Stock Split on the per share price.

The Reverse/Forward Stock Split may decrease the liquidity of our Common Stock.

Although our Board believes that the decrease in the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding as a consequence of the Reverse/Forward Stock Split and the subsequent increase in the market price of our Common Stock could encourage interest in our Common Stock and possibly promote greater liquidity for our stockholders, such liquidity could also be adversely affected by the reduced number of shares outstanding after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split. The liquidity of our Common Stock may ultimately be harmed by the Reverse/Forward Stock Split given the reduced number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after the Reverse/Forward Stock Split, particularly if the stock price does not continue to increase.
