In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, “Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software,” ASC Subtopic 350-40, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software” (ASU 2025-06). The ASU 2025-06 provisions require entities to start capitalizing software costs when management has authorized and committed to funding the project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and used as intended. In addition, ASU 2025-06 adds some disclosure requirements and incorporates the recognition requirements for website-specific development costs from its present subtopic. The provisions of ASU 2025-06 will be effective for the Company’s first quarter of the year ending September 30, 2029. Early adoption is permitted.

No other new accounting pronouncements effective or issued prior to the filing of this Form 10-K had, or are expected to have, a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

3. Revenue Recognition

The nature of the goods the Company transfers to customers at the point of sale consists of merchandise purchased for resale. In these transactions, the Company acts as a principal and recognizes revenue (net sales) from the sale of goods when control of the promised goods is transferred to the customer. Control refers to the ability of the customer to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all the remaining benefits from, the transferred goods.

The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied upon the transfer of goods to the customer (at the point of sale), and payment from the customer is also due at that time. Transaction prices are considered fixed. Discounts provided to customers at the point of sale are recognized as a reduction in revenue as the goods are sold. Revenue excludes sales and usage-based taxes collected.

Proceeds from the sale of the Company’s gift cards are recorded as a liability at the time of sale and recognized as revenue when the gift cards are redeemed by the customer and the performance obligation is satisfied by the Company.

As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, the balance of contract liabilities related to unredeemed gift cards was $1.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively. Revenue for the year ended September 30, 2025 includes $0.8
