Both of those agreements were announced in December at the same purchase agreement amount of $6 million.<\/p>\n<p>According to his fund&#8217;s website, Lazar has been involved in the capital markets for over a decade, leveraging his &#8220;diverse knowledge of financial, legal and operations management; public company management, accounting, private placements, audit preparation, capital raising, due diligence reviews, and SEC regulations.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Lazar steps into CEO, board chair posts<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_259534\" style=\"width: 980px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-259534\" class=\"img-responsive\" src=\"https:\/\/dallasinnovates.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Sow-Good-CEO-Claudia-Goldfarb-center-in-pink-and-Executive-Chairman-Ira-Goldfarb-beside-her-in-light-blue-tie-at-Nasdaq-bell-ringing-event-May-20-2024-Photo-Nasdaq.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"970\" height=\"506\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-259534\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">On May 20, 2024, Sow Good co-founder and then-CEO Claudia Goldfarb (center in pink) and her husband, Co-Founder and then-Executive Chairman Ira Goldfarb (beside her in light blue tie), rang the opening bell at Nasdaq.

[Photo: Nasdaq]<\/p><\/div>\n<p>In connection with the the transactions, David Lazar was appointed CEO and board chair of Sow Good. Co-Founder Claudia Goldfarb stepped down as CEO and remains with the company as chief operating officer and a member of the board. David Natan was elected to the board, and Joe Mueller and Chris Ludeman resigned from it. Co-Founder Ira Goldfarb resigned as Sow Good&#8217;s executive chairman and board chair.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"justify\">\u201cCompleting this financing provides Sow Good with critical runway and stability,\u201d Lazar said in a statement. \u201cOur immediate focus is to continue serving customers and partners, stabilize the business, and evaluate opportunities to grow within the candy and snack category. At the same time, we will be disciplined and thoughtful as we explore additional strategic alternatives that can unlock long-term value for stockholders.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 align=\"justify\">Asset sale to Trea Grove<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"justify\">In another move, Sow Good said it had completed the sale of &#8220;a significant portion of the assets related to the company&#8217;s freeze-dried snacks and candy business&#8221; to Trea Grove LLC for $1.5 million, payable in installments through March 31. That deal includes the transfer of selected intellectual property, real property improvements, and other related assets, along with the assumption of specified liabilities, Sow Good said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"justify\">After the sale, Sow Good appointed Trea Grove as the exclusive distributor of certain Sow Good products, including fruits, snacks, and candy, through July 31, 2026, unless extended. Under the agreement, the distributor will manage customer communications, logistics, fulfillment, billing, and collections, and will remit 10% of gross receipts from product sales to Sow Good.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"justify\">Sow Good noted that the transactions &#8220;do not represent a liquidation or cessation of operations.&#8221; The company said it will continue selling and distributing its candy products in the ordinary course of business.<\/p>\n<p>Goldfarb said the transactions allow Sow Good &#8220;to remain active in the candy market while significantly reducing fixed operating costs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe believe this structure positions the company to continue serving its customers, through a third-party distribution arrangement, pursue growth opportunities within the candy industry, and thoughtfully assess additional strategic paths that may enhance value,&#8221; Goldfarb added in a statement.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"justify\">Sow Good said it will continue operating its candy business while evaluating growth opportunities within the candy and snack industry. The company added that it will also assess other strategic alternatives\u2014including potential partnerships, acquisitions, or additional corporate transactions\u2014with the goal of strengthening its financial position and creating long-term stockholder value.<\/p>\n<h3 align=\"justify\">Company pivoted from oil and gas to freeze-dried candy<\/h3>\n<p>The company made\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dallasinnovates.com\/irving-based-sow-good-raises-2-5m-adds-cre-expert-to-its-board\/\">a whale of a pivot<\/a>\u00a0in January 2021 by announcing it had changed its name from\u00a0Black Ridge Oil and Gas\u00a0and become Sow Good Inc. to reflect its entry into the global freeze-dried food market, which was estimated at the time to total nearly\u00a0<span class=\"xn-money\">$60 billion, according to market research company\u00a0Technavio<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>The company <a href=\"https:\/\/dallasinnovates.com\/the-last-word-sow-goods-ira-goldfarb-on-ringing-the-opening-bell-at-nasdaq\/\">rang the opening bell at Nasdaq<\/a> in Times Square on May 20, 2024.
