Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this offering. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis, including information regarding the strategy and plans for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should review the "Risk Factors" section for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis

2019 Operations

We saw continued strength in our team building offering and grew revenues steadily.

We faced two main challenges during our busiest time of the year due to unexpected change in staff. We were not able to keep up with demand because two of our key staff members left the organization and the Founders had to focus on maintaining the back-end logistics rather than sell.
However, we still achieved a revenue growth of over 60% from 2018.


Runway & Short/Mid Term Expenses

tinyB chocolate LLC cash in hand is $162,382, as of June 2020. Over the last three months, revenues have averaged $32,207/month, cost of goods sold has averaged $16,030/month, and operational expenses have averaged $28,189/month, for an average burn rate of $12,012 per month. Our intent is to be profitable in 18 months.

The pandemic shifted our business significantly: we saw zero revenue from team building activities and at the same time saw a surge in our eCommerce business.

We expect to continue strong eCommerce sales, boosted by a new virtual team building offering.

We obtained a $93,000 emergency disaster loan which has helped significantly.  We are also investing in online advertising and marketing.

Risks

1

Our clients are predominantly large high tech and biotech companies in Silicon Valley. Any economic event that causes a significant negative impact on these industries will also impact our company.

2

In order to continue our rapid growth, we will need expand and diversify our services, the markets we serve or both. Although there are exceptions, a given decision maker (ie a team or department) will not purchase an identical event for a team for several years after an initial event.

3

We must manage our cash flow carefully, taking into account potential seasonality both in terms of slower demand for our services during summer and a peak in demand during the Holidays.
