Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive

Agreement.

On October 16, 2026, Rocky Mountain Chocolate

Factory, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Business Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”), a Promissory Note

(the “Alpine Note”) and a Commercial Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement” and, together with the Loan

Agreement and the Alpine Note, the “Loan Documents”) with Alpine Bank, a Colorado banking corporation (“Alpine Bank”),

providing for a $2.0 million term loan (the “Alpine Loan”). The full amount of the Alpine Loan was funded on October 16, 2026,

and the Company intends to use the proceeds for working capital.

The Alpine Loan matures on October 16, 2028. The

Company is required to make monthly payments of accrued interest beginning November 16, 2026, with all outstanding principal and accrued

interest due at maturity. The Alpine Loan bears interest at a variable rate equal to the JP Morgan Chase Bank prime rate plus 1.00%, subject

to a floor of 6.00% per annum and a ceiling of the lesser of 24.00% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law, and the interest rate

increases to 24.00% upon an event of default. The Company may prepay the Alpine Loan at any time without penalty. In connection with the

Alpine Loan, the Company paid a $20,000 loan origination fee and a $30,000 cash collateral fee to the Colorado Housing and Finance Authority

(“CHFA”).

The Company’s obligations under the Alpine

Loan are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets and personal property pursuant to the Security

Agreement, and are further secured by an assignment to Alpine Bank of a deposit account of approximately $1.0 million held by CHFA at

Alpine Bank.

The Loan Agreement contains customary representations,

warranties and affirmative and negative covenants, including restrictions on the Company’s ability, without Alpine Bank’s

consent, to incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, merge or consolidate, sell assets outside the ordinary course of business, and

pay dividends, repurchase shares or make other restricted payments, as well as a requirement that the Company maintain its deposit accounts,

including its primary operating account, with Alpine Bank. The Loan Documents also contain customary events of default, including, among

others, payment defaults, covenant defaults, cross-defaults, insolvency events, a material adverse change in the Company’s financial

condition, and any change in ownership of 25% or more of the Company’s common stock. Upon an event of default, Alpine Bank may declare

all outstanding amounts immediately due and payable and exercise its other remedies under the Loan Documents.

The foregoing description of the Loan Documents

does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Loan Agreement, the Alpine Note

and the Security Agreement, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K

and are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or

Disposition of Assets.

As previously disclosed in the Current Report

on Form 8-K filed by the Company on October 6, 2026 (the “Prior 8-K”), the Company entered into a Contract to Buy and Sell

Real Estate (Commercial) (the “Purchase Agreement”) and a Commercial Lease (the “Lease”) with American Heritage

Legacies, LLC (“AHL”), a company controlled by the family of Allen Harper, the Company’s Interim Chief Executive Officer,

providing for the sale-leaseback of the Company’s property at 265 Turner Drive, Durango, Colorado (the “Durango Property”).

On October 16, 2026, the Company completed the sale of the Durango Property to AHL for $6.6 million, and the Lease commenced.

The Company used the net proceeds to repay

in full approximately $6.6 million of principal and accrued interest outstanding under the Notes (as defined in the Prior 8-K), and the

Company has no further obligations under the Notes.

The foregoing description of the Purchase

Agreement and the Lease does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase

Agreement and the Lease, which were filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to the Prior 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

Rocky

Mountain Chocolate Factory Reports Fiscal Second Quarter 2027 Financial Results

Management

to Host Conference Call Monday at 5:00 p.m. ET

DURANGO, Colo.,

October 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rocky Mountain

Chocolate Factory, Inc. (Nasdaq: RMCF) (the “Company” or “RMCF”), America’s Chocolatier®

since 1981, is reporting financial and operating results for its second quarter of fiscal 2027, which ended August 31, 2026.

“Since stepping into the Interim CEO role,

I have been encouraged by the way our leadership team has come together around a shared set of priorities for the business,” said

Allen Harper, Interim CEO. “With COO David Denker leading our day-to-day operations, our teams are increasingly aligned across the

business. That alignment is strengthening accountability and decision-making as we build a stronger organization and position Rocky Mountain

Chocolate Factory for sustainable growth and long-term shareholder value.”

David Denker, Chief Operating Officer, added,

“During the second quarter, we made progress improving production and execution across the business. August was our highest production

and shipping month of the calendar year. Increasing production volume from our Durango facility remains a key priority as we prepare for

the holiday season. Enhancements to our reporting platform, combined with our ERP capabilities, are providing our teams with greater visibility

into demand, inventory and production requirements. These operational improvements, together with our continued focus on production efficiency

and execution, contributed to the recovery in gross margin during the quarter. We believe there is additional opportunity to build on

this progress as we move through the holiday season.”

Mr. Denker continued, “The acquisition of

Chino Hills in July 2026 expanded our company-owned store base to five locations, while new franchised stores opened in Folsom, California,

and Tinton Falls, New Jersey. As we grow our footprint and continue to enhance operations, we remain focused on consistent execution,

supporting our franchisees and preserving the product quality and longstanding recipes that distinguish Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory.”

Fiscal Second Quarter 2027 Financial Results

vs. Fiscal Second Quarter 2026

● Total revenue was $6.7 million for the second

quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to $6.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026. Primarily due to lower Durango product sales and

royalty and marketing fees which offset the increase in retail sales, driven by the larger company-owned store base and price increases.

● Total product and retail gross profit increased

to $0.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2027 compared to a gross loss of less than $0.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal

2026. Gross margin improved to 8.0% from (0.6)%, reflecting pricing actions and production efficiencies.

● Total costs and expenses were $7.7 million in

the second quarter of fiscal 2027, up from $7.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026. The increase primarily reflects the larger

company-owned store base and higher franchise and general and administrative costs. These increases were partially offset by lower cost

of sales and sales and marketing expenses.

● Net loss was $1.3 million or $(0.14) per share

for the second quarter of fiscal 2027, compared to a net loss of $0.7 million or $(0.09) per share in the second quarter of fiscal 2026.

● EBITDA loss was $0.7 million in the second quarter

of fiscal 2027 compared to a loss of $0.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026.

In the fiscal second quarter, the Board formed

a strategic committee, which with the assistance of its advisors, is exploring strategic alternatives that may be available to the Company.

Alternatives may include, among other things, a possible sale, merger, or other business combination, or a going-private transaction.

In connection with this process, the Company has received expressions of interest from third parties. There can be no assurance that this

review of strategic alternatives will result in any transaction or other strategic change.

Subsequent Events

Subsequent to quarter end, the Company completed

a $6.6 million sale-leaseback transaction with American Heritage Legacies, LLC for its manufacturing facility located in Durango, Colorado.

The sale was completed and the lease commenced on October 16, 2026. Net proceeds from the sale of the property have been used to repay

$6.6 million in debt, which bears interest at 12% per annum. In connection with the repayment, the Company incurred prepayment penalties

and related costs of $0.3 million.

On October 16, 2026, the Company entered into

a loan agreement with Alpine Bank, where the Company received an advance of $2.0 million for working capital purposes. The loan matures

on October 16, 2028, and bears interest at the prime rate plus 1%. Additional information is included in the Company’s Quarterly

Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended August 31, 2026.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes non-GAAP financial

measures, EBITDA loss and Adjusted Gross Margin. The Company defines EBITDA loss as net earnings before interest, taxes on income, and

depreciation and amortization. The Company defines Adjusted Gross Margin as gross margin plus depreciation and amortization included in

the cost of sales. Reconciliations of EBITDA loss and Adjusted Gross Margin with their most directly comparable GAAP measure is included

in this press release.

These are supplemental measures of performance

that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. The Company believes Adjusted Gross Margin is useful to investors, as

a supplement to gross margin and other performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, because it provides a measure of operating

performance that is unaffected by non-cash depreciation and amortization. Management also uses Adjusted Gross Margin, rather than gross

margin, to make incremental pricing decisions. The Company believes EBITDA (loss) is useful to investors because it helps them evaluate

the Company’s core operating performance without the effects of financing decisions, income taxes and non-cash depreciation and amortization,

and management uses EBITDA (loss) to evaluate the Company’s operating performance from period to period.

EBITDA (loss) and Adjusted Gross Margin have limitations

as analytical tools because they exclude the impact of depreciation and amortization expense and, in the case of EBITDA (loss), interest

and income taxes. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure reported under GAAP. The Company’s use

of capital assets makes depreciation and amortization expense a necessary element of its costs and its ability to generate income. Because

of these limitations, the Company uses EBITDA (loss) and Adjusted Gross Margin only in conjunction with GAAP measures of performance,

such as net loss and gross margin. In addition, other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, so the Company’s

non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to those of other companies.
