Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

The information included in Item 4.02 below is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

As previously disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K furnished by Coffee Holding Co., Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), on January 25, 2023 (the “Previous 8-K”), the Company determined that it made certain errors in the presentation of net sales and cost of sales in its consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020. The Company disclosed in the Previous 8-K that it would restate its previously filed annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020 included in the associated Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2021 filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

After further analysis and discussion with the Company’s management, board of directors and in consultation with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, the Company has determined that it will instead restate the previously filed financial statements for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020 and October 31, 2019 included in the associated Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020 filed with the SEC on February 16, 2021, as amended on February 26, 2021. Further, to correct errors in the Company’s accounting for certain intercompany eliminations in its consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal periods ended January 31, 2020, April 30, 2020 and July 31, 2020 (collectively, the “2020 Interim Periods”), the Company will be amending the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed for the fiscal periods ended January 31, 2021, April 30, 2021 and July 31, 2021 (the “2021 Interim Reports”) in order to correct the comparative periods presented therein to reflect adjustments made to correct errors in the Company’s accounting for certain intercompany eliminations during such 2020 Interim Periods.

As disclosed in the Previous 8-K, the errors and the required restatements had no effect on the Company’s results of operations or earnings (loss) per share or other items in the consolidated statement of operations for the years ended October 31, 2020 or October 31, 2019 or the 2020 Interim Periods, nor did it have any impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ equity, or consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended October 31, 2020 or October 31, 2019 or the 2020 Interim Periods.

Further, the effect of the errors is expected to be an overstatement of net sales and cost of sales in the consolidated statement of operations in the following amounts and for the following r

Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

The information included in Item 4.02 below is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

Coffee Holding Co., Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), has determined that it made certain errors in the presentation of net sales and cost of sales in its consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020. The Company will therefore restate its previously filed annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020, as described further below. The errors and the required restatement had no effect on the Company’s net income or earnings per share or other items in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended October 31, 2020 nor did it have any impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ equity, or consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended October 31, 2020. The effect of these errors is expected to be an overstatement of net sales and cost of sales in the consolidated statement of operations of approximately $8.3 million.

Specifically, on January 24, 2023, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company concluded, after discussion with the Company’s management, that the Company inaccurately accounted for certain intercompany eliminations in its consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020 (the “Non-Reliance Period”) included in the associated Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2021 filed with the Securities Exchange Commission, should no longer be relied upon due to errors in the presentation of net sales and cost of sales in the consolidated statement of operations, and will require restatement. As a result, the Company will file an amendment to its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2021 to restate the previously issued financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2020. The Company intends to restate the financial statements for the Non-Reliance Period as soon as practicable.

Investors and others should rely only on financial information and other disclosures regarding the Non-Reliance Period once the Company restates its financial statements for the Non-Reliance Period and not rely on any previously issued or filed earnings press releases, investor presentations or other communications related thereto covering the Non-Reliance Period.

The Company expects to report a material weakness in the amended Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2021. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable
