CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements and information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 (the “Quarterly Report”), may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, which address activities, events, or developments that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future, including such things as future capital expenditures, commencement of business operations, business strategy, statements related to the expected effects on our business from the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, and other similar matters are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” “hope,” “intend,” “project,” “positioned,” or “strategy” or other comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements are based largely on our current expectations and assumptions and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. These statements are subject to many risks, uncertainties, and other important factors that could cause actual future results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements including, but not limited to, the duration and scope of the COVID-19 pandemic and impact on the demand for the products we distribute; our ability to obtain the products from the manufacturer; actions governments, businesses, and individuals take in response to the pandemic, including mandatory business closures and restrictions on onsite commercial interactions; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and action taken in response to the pandemic on global and regional economies and economic activity; the pace of recovery when the COVID-19 pandemic subsides; general economic uncertainty in key global markets and a worsening of global economic conditions or low levels of economic growth; our inability to sustain profitable sales growth; and circumstances or developments that may make us unable to implement or realize the anticipated benefits, or that may increase the costs, of our current and planned business initiatives. For a more thorough discussion of these risks, you should read this entire Report carefully, as well as the risks discussed under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Although management believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements included in this Report are reasonable, such statements do not guarantee our future performance, and actual results could differ from those contemplated by these forward-looking statements. The assumptions used for purposes of the forward-looking statements specified in the following information represent estimates of future events and are subject to uncertainty as to possible changes in economic, legislative, industry, and other circumstances. As a result, the identification and interpretation of data and other information and their use in developing and selecting assumptions from and among reasonable alternatives require the exercise of judgment. To the extent that the assumed events do not occur, the outcome may vary substantially from anticipated or projected results, and, accordingly, no opinion is expressed on the achievability of those forward-looking statements. In the light of these risks and uncertainties, all of the forward-looking statements made herein are qualified by these cautionary statements, and there can be no assurance that the results and events contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained in this Report will in fact transpire. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of their dates. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements.

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022

Note 1 – Organization and Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared by Alpine 4 Holdings, Inc. (‘we,” “our,” or the "Company"), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC").

Basis of presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements present the balance sheets, statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows of the Company. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).

Liquidity

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business within one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”), Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), our management evaluates whether there are conditions or events, considered in aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred significant recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. These factors raise doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. While the Company experienced an operating loss for the three months ended June 30, 2022, of $2.9 million this was an improvement over the previous quarters ended March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, during which the Company had an operating loss of $3.6 million and $12.4 million, respectively. While the Company had a negative cash flow used in operation of $7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, it was an improvement over the same period last year, the six months ended June 30, 2021, when the Company had a negative cash flow used in operations of $14.4 million.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had positive working capital of approximately $15.3 million, which was an increase of $1.3 million compared to December 31, 2021. The Company has secured bank financing totaling $ 23.5 million in lines of credit of which approximately $9.9 million was unused. Likewise, subsequent to June 30, 2022, the Company raised net proceeds of approximately $9,175,000 from the sale of 14,492,754 shares of Class A common stock and the same number of warrants (see Note 9). As of the date of this Report, the Company had approximately $7.4 million in cash.

The Company plans to continue to generate additional revenue (and improve cash flows from operations) combined with improved gross profit performance from the existing operating companies. The Company also may raise funds through debt financing, securing additional lines of credit, and the sale of shares through its planned at-the-market offering.

Based on management’s plans to improve cash flows, as disclosed above management believes the Company has sufficient working capital to satisfy the Company’s estimated liquidity needs for the next 12 months. Because of the above factors, the Company believes that this alleviates the substantial doubt in connection with the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. However, there is no assurance that management’s plans will be successful due to the current economic climate in the United States and globally.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of estimates

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses and related disclosures. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable. In many instances, the Company could have reasonably used different accounting estimates and in other instances changes in the accounting estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. This applies in particular to useful lives of long-lived assets, reserves for accounts receivable and inventory, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, fair values assigned to intangible assets acquired, and impairment of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ significantly from our estimates. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, the Company’s future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. The ultimate impact from COVID-19 on the Company’s operations and financial results during 2022 will depend on, among other things, the ultimate severity and scope of the pandemic, the pace at which governmental and private travel restrictions and public concerns about public gatherings will ease, and the speed with which the economy recovers. The Company is not able to fully quantify the impact that these factors will have on the Company’s financial results during 2022 and beyond. COVID-19 did have a negative impact on the Company’s financial performance in 2021. Our operations and performance may depend on global, regional, economic and geopolitical conditions. Russia’s invasion and military attacks on Ukraine have triggered significant sanctions from North American and European leaders. These events are currently escalating and creating increasingly volatile global economic conditions. Resulting changes in North American trade policy could trigger retaliatory actions by Russia, its allies and other affected countries, including China, resulting in a “trade war.” A trade war could result in increased costs for raw materials that we use in our manufacturing and could otherwise limit our ability to sell our products abroad. These increased costs would have a negative effect on our financial condition and profitability. Furthermore, the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine is increasing supply interruptions and further hinder our ability to find the materials we need to make our products. If the conflict between Russia and Ukraine continues for a long period of time, or if other countries become further involved in the conflict, we could face significant adverse effects to our business and financial condition. The Company is not able to fully quantify the impact that these factors will have on the Company’s financial results during 2022 and beyond.

Reclassification

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.  These reclassifications had no impact on net earnings and financial position.

Cash

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term investments with original maturities of less than 90 days. As of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the Company had no cash equivalents.

Fair value measurements

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most

11

---

Table of Contents

advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, convertible notes, notes payable and lines of credit. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.

The carrying value of long-term debt approximates fair value since the related rates of interest approximate current market rates. As of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the Company had no financial assets or liabilities that were required to be fair valued on a recurring basis.

Research and Development

The Company focuses on quality control and development of new products and the improvement of existing products. All cost related to research and development activities are expensed as incurred. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, research and development cost totaled $586,765 and $515,202, respectively.

Earnings (loss) per share

The Company presents both basic and diluted net income (loss) per share on the face of the consolidated statements of operations. Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted per share calculations give effect to all potentially dilutive shares of common stock outstanding during the period, including stock options and warrants, using the treasury-stock method. If antidilutive, the effect of potentially dilutive shares of common stock is ignored. The only potentially dilutive

Note 3 – Leases

The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a finance or operating lease. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of the Company’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company must discount lease payments based on an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate.

Royalty Agreement

On November 28, 2021, the Company entered into a Royalty Agreement with the sellers of Elecjet. In the Royalty Agreement, the Company noted that upon closing of the merger with Elecjet, the Company desired to build its initial factory (“Factory”) to manufacture batteries in the United States. The Company agreed to pay the sellers 1.5% of net sales for batteries produced by the Factory. Royalty payments shall continue to be paid for a period of ten years from the starting date, or until the total of the royalty payments equals $50 million, whichever occurs first.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company may become involved in lawsuits and other legal proceedings that arise in the course of business. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and it is not possible to predict the outcome of litigation with total confidence. As of the date of this Report, the Company was not aware of any legal proceedings or potential claims against it whose outcome would be likely, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results, or cash flows, except as set forth below.

In June 2020, the Company’s subsidiary Excel Fabrication, LLC filed a lawsuit against Fusion Mechanical, LLC, in the Fifth Judicial District Court, State of Idaho (Case Number CV42-20-2246). The Company claimed tortious interference and trade secret violations by the defendant. The defendant filed a motion to dismiss, which was denied by the Court. As of the date of this Report, discovery was proceeding. The defendant filed a second motion to dismiss and the Company filed a memorandum in response to the second motion to dismiss, for which a hearing was held on May 10, 2021. On June 11, 2021, the court issued a decision narrowing the claims of the plaintiffs to three items: breach of contract, good faith and fair dealings and intentional interference for economic advantage. These were the Company’s three main points of contention. As of the date of this Report, trial is set for Spring 2023.

In August 2020, the Company filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court, District of Arizona (Case No.2:20-cv-01679-DJH), against Alan Martin, the seller of Horizon Well Testing LLC (“HWT”) dba Venture West Energy Services, LLC. The Company brought claims for breach of contract, including but not limited to breaches of the seller’s representations and warranties in the purchase agreement in connection with the acquisition of HWT. The defendant answered and counterclaimed, claiming breach by the Company of its obligation to issue a promissory note (to be issued in connection with the acquisition of HWT). As of the date of this Report, the discovery period had ended but no trial date had been scheduled. A summary judgement motion was filed on December 22, 2021, and was fully briefed and submitted for decision in January 2022. That motion was pending as of the date of this Report.

In May 2021, the Company and several shareholders filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona (Case number 2:21-cv-00886-MTL) against Fin Capital LLC ("Fin Cap"), and Grizzly Research LLC ("Grizzly") alleging securities fraud, tortious interference with business expectancy and libel slander for disseminating false and misleading statements about Alpine 4 and its employees to manipulate the stock price and further their own financial interests. As of the date of this Report Fin Capital and Grizzly Research LLC filed motions to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction. The Court has denied Fin Capital’s motion to dismiss and granted the Grizzly Research motion. However, the Court granted the Company until May 12, 2022, to file an amended complaint. The Company subsequently filed its first amended complaint. In June 2022, both Grizzly and Finn moved to dismiss the first amended complaint. As of the date of this Report, those motions were still pending. The Court denied motions of Grizzly and Finn relating to the filing of the joint planning report and and entered the scheduling order. Because the scheduling order is now in place, the Company will be moving forward with discovery.

In August 2021, Rob Porter filed a lawsuit in the District Court of Oklahoma County, State of Oklahoma (CJ-2021-3421), alleging unjust enrichment and breach of contract. In October 2021, the Company filed its answer denying such claims. In October 2021, the Company also filed counterclaims against Mr. Porter for conversion and breach of fiduciary duties. The Company believes this is a frivolous lawsuit. As of the date of this Report, the Company had agreed on a scheduling order with counsel for Mr. Porter, and the Company was participating in discovery.

In October 2021, the Company received three complaints in the District Court of Oklahoma Country State of Oklahoma from former VWES employees Bruce Morse (CJ-2021-4316), Brian Hobbs (CJ-2021-4315), Thomas Karraker (CJ-2021-4314) for unjust enrichment, and breach of contract. On January 19, 2022, the Company filed answers to all three lawsuits that denied these claims. The Company believes these are frivolous lawsuits. In July 2022, the Company

and Mr. Morse settled his claims against the Company. The settlement included the cash payment of $24,375 for Mr. Morse's claimed 37,500 shares of Class A Common stock. A stipulated motion to sever Mr. Morses's case from those of Messrs. Hobbs and Karraker has been sent to counsel for Mr. Morse for approval and filing with the court. In July 2022, Mr. Hobbs also expressed interest in settling his claims on similar terms. Negotiations with Mr. Hobbs were ongoing as of the date of this Report. As of the date of this Report, Mr. Karraker's lawsuit was proceeding.

Note 9 – Subsequent Events

In July 2022, the Company sold 14,492,754 shares of Class A common stock and 14,492,754 warrants to certain investors, under a registered direct offering, for net proceeds of $9,175,000. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.69 per share and a term of 5 years.

In July 2022, the Company issued 60,600 shares of Class A common stock for cash of $40,910 in connection with its ATM offering.

In July 2022, the Company's subsidiary ElecJet paid a license fee of $250,000 and a follow up $300,000 fee in conjunction with the development of its AX-03 solid state battery.

In August 2022, certain investors exercised 1,449,276 warrants for cash proceeds of approximately $1,000,000.

Overview and Highlights

Company Background

Alpine 4 Holdings, Inc. (“we,” “our,” or the “Company”), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 22, 2014. We are a publicly traded conglomerate that is acquiring businesses that fit into its disruptive DSF business model of Drivers, Stabilizers, and Facilitators. At Alpine 4, we understand the nature of how technology and innovation can accentuate a business. Our focus is on how the adaptation of new technologies even in brick and mortar businesses can drive innovation. We also believe that our holdings should benefit synergistically from each other and that the ability to have collaboration across varying industries can spawn new ideas and create fertile ground for competitive advantages.

As of the date of this Report, the Company was a holding company that owned fourteen operating subsidiaries:

–A4 Corporate Services, LLC;

–ALTIA, LLC;

–Quality Circuit Assembly, Inc.;

–Morris Sheet Metal, Corp;

–JTD Spiral, Inc.;

–Excel Construction Services, LLC;

–SPECTRUMebos, Inc.;

–Vayu (US), Inc.;

–Thermal Dynamics, Inc.;

–Alternative Laboratories, LLC.;

–Identified Technologies Corporation;

–Elecjet Corp.;

–DTI Services Limited Liability Company (doing business as RCA Commercial Electronics); and

–Global Autonomous Corporation.

In the first quarter of 2020, we created three additional subsidiaries to act as silo holding companies, organized by industries. These silo subsidiaries are A4 Construction Services, Inc. (“A4 Construction”), A4 Manufacturing, Inc. (“A4 Manufacturing”), and A4 Technologies, Inc. (“A4 Technologies”). In the first quarter of 2021, we formed additional silo subsidiaries: A4 Defense Systems, Inc. (“A4 Defense”); and A4 Aerospace Corporation, Inc. (“A4 Aerospace”). All of these are Delaware corporations. Each is authorized to issue 1,500 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.01 per share, and the Company is the sole shareholder of each of these subsidiaries.

In March 2021, the Company announced the combination of its subsidiaries Deluxe Sheet Metal, Inc. (Deluxe) and Morris Sheet Metal Corporation (Morris) to become one of the largest sheet metal contractors in the Midwest region of the United States. Both companies will be under the Morris Sheet Metal brand. The Company’s management believes that the combination of these businesses will create a more harmonious relationship between the two companies. The combining of resources should empower Morris to strengthen its brand through its strategic banking relationship, eliminate duplicative and competitive interests, and expand its footprint beyond the Indiana home base.

On May 5, 2021, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of stock of Thermal Dynamics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Thermal Dynamics”).

In June 2021, the Company announced the combination of its subsidiaries Impossible Aerospace (“IA”) and Vayu (US) (“Vayu US”) to become Vayu Aerospace Corporation (“VAYU”). The Company’s management believes that the combination of these businesses will create a more harmonious relationship between the two companies. The combining of resources should empower VAYU to strengthen its brand through its strategic banking relationship, eliminate duplicative and competitive interests, and expand its footprint beyond the Michigan home base.

On October 20, 2021, the Company, and the Company’s subsidiary, A4 Aerospace, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“A4 Aerospace”), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Identified Technologies Corporation, a Delaware corporation with foreign registration in Pennsylvania (“Identified Technologies”).

Business Strategy

What We Do:

Alexander Hamilton, in his “Federalist paper #11,” said that our adventurous spirit distinguishes the commercial character of America. Hamilton knew that our freedom to be creative gave American businesses a competitive advantage over the rest of the world. We believe that Alpine 4 also exemplifies this spirit in our subsidiaries and that our greatest competitive advantage is our highly diverse business structure combined with a culture of collaboration.

It is our mandate to grow Alpine 4 into a leading, multi-faceted holding company with diverse subsidiary holdings with products and services that not only benefit from one another as a whole, but also have the benefit of independence. This type of corporate structure is about having our subsidiaries prosper through strong onsite leadership while working synergistically with other Alpine 4 holdings. The essence of our business model is based around acquiring B2B companies in a broad spectrum of industries via our acquisition strategy of DSF (Drivers, Stabilizer, Facilitator). Our DSF business model (which is discussed more below) offers our shareholders an opportunity to own small-cap businesses that hold defensible positions in their individual market space. Further, Alpine 4’s greatest opportunity for growth exists in the

smaller to middle-market operating companies with revenues between $5 to $150 million annually. In this target-rich environment, businesses generally sell at more reasonable multiples, presenting greater opportunities for operational and strategic improvements that have greater potential to enhance profit.

Driver, Stabilizer, Facilitator (DSF)

Driver: A Driver is a company that is in an emerging market or technology, that has enormous upside potential for revenue and profits, with a significant market opportunity to access. These types of acquisitions are typically small, brand new companies that need a structure to support their growth.

Stabilizer: Stabilizers are companies that have sticky customers, consistent revenue and provide solid net profit returns to Alpine 4.

Facilitators: Facilitators are our “secret sauce.” Facilitators are companies that provide a product or service that an Alpine 4 sister company can use as leverage to create a competitive advantage.

When you blend these categories into a longer-term view of the business landscape, you can then begin to see the value-driving force that makes this a truly purposeful and powerful business model. As stated earlier, our greatest competitive advantage is our highly diversified business structure combined with a collaborative business culture, that helps drive out competition in our markets by bringing; resources, planning, technology and capacity that our competitors simply do not have. DSF reshapes the environment each subsidiary operates in by sharing and exploiting the resources each company has, thus giving them a competitive advantage that their peers do not have.

How We Do It:

Optimization vs. Asset Producing

The process to purchase a perspective company can be long and arduous. During our due diligence period, we are validating and determining three major points, not just the historical record of the company we are buying. Those three major points are what we call the “What is, What Should Be and What Will Be”.

•“The What Is” (TWI). TWI is the defining point of where a company is holistically in a myriad of metrics; Sales, Finance, Ease of Operations, Ownership and Customer Relations to name a few. Subsequently, this is usually the point where most acquirers stop in their due diligence. We look to define this position not just from a number’s standpoint, but also how does this perspective map out to a larger picture of culture and business environment.

•“The What Should Be” (TWSB). TWSB is the validation point of inflection where we use many data inputs to assess if TWI is out of the norm with competitors, and does that data show the potential for improvement.

•“The What Will Be” (TWWB). TWWB is how we seek to identify the net results or what we call Kinetic Profit (KP) between the TWI and TWSB. The keywords are Kinetic Profit. KP is the profit waiting to be achieved by some form of action or as we call it, the Optimization Phase of acquiring a new company.

Optimization: During the Optimization Phase, we seek to root up employees with in-depth training on various topics. Usually, these training sessions include; Profit and Expense Control, Production Planning, Breakeven Analysis and Profit Engineering to name a few. But the end game is to guide these companies to: become net profitable with the new debt burden placed on them post-acquisition, mitigate the loss of sales due to acquisition attrition (we typically plan on 10% of our customers leaving simply due to old ownership not being involved in the company any longer), potential replacement of employees that No longer wish to be employed post-acquisition and other ancillary issues that may arise. The Optimization Phase usually takes 12-18 months post-acquisition and a company can fall back into Optimization if it is stagnant or regresses in its training.

Asset Producing: Asset Producing is the ideal point where we want our subsidiaries to be. To become Asset Producing, subsidiary management must have completed prescribed training formats, proven they understand the key performance indicators that run their respective departments and finally, the subsidiaries they manage must have posted a net profit for 3 consecutive months.

The increase is due to the acquisitions of TDI, Alt Labs, and RCA. Operating expenses for TDI, Alt Labs, and RCA were $922,077, $3,378,620, and $3,564,917, respectively.

Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2022, increased by $5,597,853 as compared to the same period in 2021. This increase was primarily due the sale of the Alt Labs building in Fort Meyers, Florida.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have financed our operations since inception from existing revenue, the sale of common stock, capital contributions from stockholders and from the issuance of notes payable and convertible notes payable. We expect to continue to finance our operations from our current operating cash flow and by the selling shares of our common stock and or debt instruments. In the first quarter of 2021, we raised approximately $55,000,000 through the sale of our common stock in public and private transactions. On November 26, 2021, we completed a registered direct offering of common stock, raising approximately $22,000,000 in cash. The Company received net proceeds of $7.6 million from the sale of property on June 23, 2022. The Company raised $10 million in gross proceeds from the sale of 14,492,754 shares of Class A Common Stock and warrants to purchase 14,492,754 shared in a registered direct public offering that closed on July 13, 2022, the details of which are outlined in a Current Report on form 8-K filed by the Company on July 13, 2022. In August 2022, certain investors in the ATM Offering executed 1,449,276 warrants at an exercise price of $0.69 for cash proceeds to the Company of $1,000,000.

Management expects to have sufficient working capital for continuing operations from either the sale of its products or through the raising of additional capital through private offerings of our securities and improved cash flows from operations including the six acquisitions that closed in 2021. The Company also secured bank lines of credit totaling $23.5 in 2022 and 2021 of which $4.2 million was secured in March 2022. Additionally, the Company is monitoring additional businesses to acquire which management hopes will provide additional operating revenues to the Company. There can be no guarantee that the planned acquisitions will close or that they will produce the anticipated revenues on the schedule anticipated by management.

The Company also may elect to seek additional bank financing, engage in debt financing through a placement agent, or sell shares of its common stock in public or private offering transactions.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has not entered into any transactions with unconsolidated entities whereby the Company has financial guarantees, subordinated retained interests, derivative instruments, or other contingent arrangements that expose the Company to material continuing risks, contingent liabilities, or any other obligation under a variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk, or credit risk support to the Company.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. Preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. In many instances, we could have reasonably used different accounting estimates and in other instances changes in the accounting estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. This applies in particular to useful lives and valuation of long-lived. Actual results could differ significantly from our estimates. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. Management believes that there have been no changes in our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

For a summary of our significant accounting policies, refer to Note 2 of our consolidated financial statements included under Item 8 – Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on April 14, 2022.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

As a Smaller Reporting Company, the Company is not required to include the disclosure under this Item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, June 30, 2022. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company's reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based upon that evaluation, we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered by this report due to the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, many of which are indicative of many small companies with small staff: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) inadequate control activities and monitoring processes over financial reporting. However, as discussed in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2021, additional staff has been hired to address the issue of segregation of duties and the controls and monitoring processes. Management anticipates making significant progress to remediate these areas of material weakness in 2022 and has engaged a third party specialty management consultant firm to help facilitate the process.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

From time to time, the Company may become involved in lawsuits and other legal proceedings that arise in the course of business. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and it is not possible to predict the outcome of litigation with total confidence. As of the date of this Report, the Company was not aware of any legal proceedings or potential claims against it whose outcome would be likely, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results, or cash flows.

In June 2020, the Company’s subsidiary Excel Fabrication, LLC filed a lawsuit against Fusion Mechanical, LLC, in the Fifth Judicial District Court, State of Idaho (Case Number CV42-20-2246). The Company claimed tortious interference and trade secret violations by the defendant. The defendant filed a motion to dismiss, which was denied by the Court. As of the date of this Report, discovery was proceeding. The defendant filed a second motion to dismiss and the Company filed a memorandum in response to the second motion to dismiss, for which a hearing was held on May 10, 2021. On June 11, 2021, the court issued a decision narrowing the claims of the plaintiffs to three items: breach of contract, good faith and fair dealings and intentional interference for economic advantage. These were the Company’s three main points of contention. As of the date of this Report, trial is set for Spring 2023.

In August 2020, the Company filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court, District of Arizona (Case No.2:20-cv-01679-DJH), against Alan Martin, the seller of Horizon Well Testing LLC (“HWT”) dba Venture West Energy Services, LLC. The Company brought claims for breach of contract, including but not limited to breaches of the seller’s representations and warranties in the purchase agreement in connection with the acquisition of HWT. The defendant

answered and counterclaimed, claiming breach by the Company of its obligation to issue a promissory note (to be issued in connection with the acquisition of HWT). As of the date of this Report, the discovery period had ended but no trial date had been scheduled. A summary judgement motion was filed on December 22, 2021, and was fully briefed and submitted for decision in January 2022. That motion was pending as of the date of this Report.

In May 2021, the Company and several shareholders filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona (Case number 2:21-cv-00886-MTL) against Fin Capital LLC ("Fin Cap"), and Grizzly Research LLC ("Grizzly") alleging securities fraud, tortious interference with business expectancy and libel slander for disseminating false and misleading statements about Alpine 4 and its employees to manipulate the stock price and further their own financial interests. As of the date of this Report Fin Capital and Grizzly Research LLC filed motions to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction. The Court has denied Fin Capital’s motion to dismiss and granted the Grizzly Research motion. However, the Court granted the Company until May 12, 2022, to file an amended complaint. The Company subsequently filed its first amended complaint. In June 2022, both Grizzly and Finn moved to dismiss the first amended complaint. As of the date of this Report, those motions were still pending. The Court denied motions of Grizzly and Finn relating to the filing of the joint planning report and and entered the scheduling order. Because the scheduling order is now in place, the Company will be moving forward with discovery.

In August of 2021 Rob Porter filed a lawsuit in the District Court of Oklahoma Country State of Oklahoma (CJ-2021-3421) alleging unjust enrichment and breach of contract for Class B Shares. In October 2021, the Company filed its answer denying such claims. In October 2021, the Company also filed counterclaims against Mr. Porter for conversion and breach of fiduciary duties. The Company believes this is a frivolous lawsuit. As of the date of this Report, the Company had agreed on a scheduling order with counsel for Mr. Porter, and the Company was participating in discovery.

In October 2021, the Company received three complaints in the District Court of Oklahoma Country State of Oklahoma from former VWES employees Bruce Morse (CJ-2021-4316), Brian Hobbs (CJ-2021-4315), Thomas Karraker (CJ-2021-4314) for unjust enrichment, and breach of contract. On January 19, 2022, the Company filed answers to all three lawsuits that denied these claims. The Company believes these are frivolous lawsuits. In July 2022, the Company and Mr. Morse settled his claims against the Company. The settlement included the cash payment of $24,375 for Mr. Morse's claimed 37,500 shares of Class A Common stock. A stipulated motion to sever Mr. Morses's case from those of Messrs. Hobbs and Karraker has been sent to counsel for Mr. Morse for approval and filing with the court. In July 2022, Mr. Hobbs also expressed interest in settling his claims on similar terms. Negotiations with Mr. Hobbs were ongoing as of the date of this Report. As of the date of this Report, Mr. Karraker's lawsuit was proceeding.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, includes a detailed discussion of the Company’s risk factors. However, many of the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A of our Annual Report may be further heightened or exacerbated by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Changes in general economic conditions, geopolitical conditions, domestic and foreign trade policies, monetary policies and other factors beyond our control may adversely impact our business and operating results.

Our operations and performance may depend on global, regional, economic and geopolitical conditions. Russia’s invasion and military attacks on Ukraine have triggered significant sanctions from North American and European leaders. These events are currently escalating and creating increasingly volatile global economic conditions. Resulting changes in North American trade policy could trigger retaliatory actions by Russia, its allies and other affected countries, including China, resulting in a “trade war.” A trade war could result in increased costs for raw materials that we use in our manufacturing and could otherwise limit our ability to sell our products abroad. These increased costs would have a negative effect on our financial condition and profitability. Furthermore, the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine may increase the likelihood of supply interruptions and further hinder our ability to find the materials we need to make our products. If the conflict between Russia and Ukraine continues for a long period of time, or if other countries become further involved in the conflict, we could face significant adverse effects to our business and financial condition.
