Date of Report: June 28, 2022

Key Financial Metrics and Transaction Details

This filing reports a specific investment transaction rather than periodic financial results (revenue, profit, or cash flow). Key transaction metrics include:

  • Target: Chef Inspirational Foods, Inc. ("CIF"), a developer of fresh and frozen prepared foods.
  • Initial Investment: $1.2 million total for a 24% minority interest.
  • Payment Structure (Initial): $500,000 cash and $700,000 in common stock.
  • Implied Enterprise Value of CIF: $5 million.
  • Option to Acquire Remaining Interest: Option to purchase the remaining 76% of CIF.
  • Option Exercise Price: $3.8 million total ($3.5 million cash, $300,000 stock).
  • Option Expiration: Within one year of June 28, 2022.

Note: The filing text does not provide clear values for the Company's current revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, debt, or liquidity.

Material Changes and Strategic Moves

The primary material change is the entry into a definitive agreement to acquire a minority stake in CIF, originally signed on June 28, 2020, with the current filing highlighting the active option period to acquire the remaining 76% interest. This represents a strategic expansion into the fresh and frozen prepared foods market, specifically targeting the Deli Department (salads, entrees, olives) across supermarket and club store channels.

Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary

Outlook: The Company holds an option to fully acquire CIF within one year of the report date (by June 28, 2023). If exercised, the remaining payment of $3.8 million would be made over a two-year period starting from June 28, 2022.
Risks/Contingencies: The filing does not explicitly list risks or contingencies beyond the standard nature of an acquisition option. The success of the investment depends on the performance of CIF and the Company's ability to fund the potential additional $3.8 million acquisition cost.

Investor Verification Checklist

  • Verify the current status of the option to acquire the remaining 76% of CIF (whether it has been exercised or is still pending).
  • Confirm the Company's current cash position to assess ability to fund the potential $3.5 million cash portion of the full acquisition.
  • Review the latest 10-K or 10-Q filings for MamaMancini's Holdings, Inc. to obtain actual revenue, profit, and liquidity metrics not present in this 8-K.
  • Clarify the discrepancy between the metadata company name ("Mama's Creations, Inc.") and the filing registrant ("MamaMancini's Holdings, Inc.").
