CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements and information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 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 and the services we provide; our ability to obtain products from the respective manufacturers; 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, as amended.

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.

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 had a negative cash flow used in operation of $17.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, it was an improvement over the same period last year, the nine months ended September 30, 2021, when the Company had a negative cash flow used in operations of $21.2 million.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had positive working capital of approximately $22.5 million, which was an increase of $10.0 million compared to December 31, 2021. The Company has secured bank financing totaling $33.0 million in lines of credit of which approximately $2.1 million was unused as of September 30, 2022. Likewise, subsequent to June 30, 2022, the Company raised net proceeds of approximately $9.2 million from the sale of 14,492,754 shares of Class A common stock and the same number of warrants.

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 in public or private offerings.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. While the working capital deficit of prior years has improved, and working capital of the Company is currently positive, continued operating losses causes doubt as to the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The Company's ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of common stock is unknown. The obtainment of additional financing, the successful development of the Company's plan of operations, and its ultimate transition to profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue. The uncertainity that exists with these factors raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.

In order to mitigate the risk related to the going concern uncertainty, the Company has a three-fold plan to resolve these risks. First, the operating subsidiaries of QCA, TDI, IDT and RCA plan to expand their revenues and profits yielding increased cash flow in those operating segments. This plan will allow for an increased level of cash flow to the Company. Second, the Company has expanded its credit facilities at the subsidiary level over the past 12 months to allow for greater borrowing accessibility if needed for the expansion of product lines and sales opportunities and plans to extend or refinance any lines of credit coming due over the next 12 months in order to provide additional financing. Finally, operating companies hard hit by the supply-chain related price increases such as Morris Sheet Metal, Alternative Laboratories, and Excel Construction have begun to experience an easing in the procurement and cost overruns of limited product supply. This subsequently has added to increased cash flow to those entities and less reliance on the Company to fund those activities. Although this plan is in place to mitigate the risk related to the going concern uncertainty, substantial doubt remains due to uncertainty around the growth projections and lack of control of many of the factors included in the Company's plan.

Entity level risks

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. As of the date of this Report, those events were continuing to escalate and create 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 hindering 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.

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 September 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

10

these estimates and actual results, the Company’s future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. This statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when the estimated future cash flows from the use of the asset are less than the carrying amount of that asset.

During Q3, there was a triggering event related to the customer list for Alt Labs which required an analysis to be performed prior to the annual review. This analysis was performed in conjunction with a third-party valuation specialist. As a result of the analysis, it was determined that the value of the estimated future cash flows were greater than the carrying value of the reporting unit's assets. As such, no impairment was recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Goodwill

In financial reporting, goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Events that result in an impairment review include significant changes in the business climate, declines in our operating results, or an expectation that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. We assess potential impairment by considering present economic conditions as well as future expectations. All assessments of goodwill impairment are conducted at the individual reporting unit level. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the reporting units with goodwill were QCA, Morris, Excel, Alt Labs, TDI, Identified Technology, ElecJet, and RCA.

Cash

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

The FDIC insures up to $250,000 per account with any excess amount in each account being uninsured. Total bank balances were $6,116,524 and $3,522,275, respectively, as of September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021. Of this amount, $4,042,651 and $2,002,433 were uninsured. All uninsured amounts are held with J.P. Morgan Chase.

Major Customers

The Company had one customer, W.W. Grainger Inc., that made up 17% of accounts receivable as of September 30, 2022. The Company had no customer that made up over 10% of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2021.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had one customer, W.W. Grainger Inc., that made up 12% of total revenues. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company had one customer, Rivian Automotive, Inc., that made up 13% of total revenues.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had received 11% of total revenues from prime contractors.

Inventory

Inventory for all subsidiaries is valued at weighted average. Management compares the cost of inventory with its net realizable value and an allowance is made to write down inventory to net realizable value, if lower. Inventory is segregated

11

into three areas, raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods. Inventory at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, consists of:

	September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021
Raw materials	$	8,685,568	$	8,253,104
Work in process	2,500,893		2,480,979
Finished goods	13,796,125		13,685,571
Inventory	$	24,982,586	$	24,419,654

Fair value measurements

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 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, 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.

We calculate the estimated fair value of a reporting unit using a combination of the income and market approaches. For the income approach, we use a discounted cash flow models developed in connection with our third-party valuation specialists that include the following assumptions, among others: projections of revenues, expenses, and related cash flows based on assumed long-term growth rates; and estimated discount rates. For the market approach, we use analyses based primarily on market comparables. We base these assumptions on historical data and experience, industry projections, and general economic conditions.

The carrying value of long-term debt approximates fair value since the related rates of interest approximate current market rates. As of September 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 as all of our assets were Level 1.

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 nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, research and development cost totaled $675,725 and $1,096,333, 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 amount of anti-dilutive

12

shares related to stock options and warrants for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 was 19,651,069. The following table illustrates the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

	For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022					For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2021

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from contract with Customers ("Topic 606"). The following is a summary of the revenue recognition policy for each of the Company’s subsidiaries.

Revenue is recognized under Topic 606, at a point in time and over a period of time, in a manner that reasonably reflects the delivery of its services and products to customers in return for expected consideration and includes the following elements:

–executed contract with the Company's customers that it believes are legally enforceable;

–identification of performance obligations in the respective contract;

–determination of the transaction price for each performance obligation in the respective contract;

–allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation; and

–recognition of revenue only when the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

The following table presents our revenues disaggregated by type for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022:

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 discounts lease payments based on an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate.

14

As of September 30, 2022, the future minimum finance and operating lease payments were as follows:

Twelve Months Ending September 30,	Finance Leases		Operating Leases
2023	$	1,923,293	$	1,522,087
2024	1,946,149		1,552,434

Total obligation	15,488,538		10,119,307
Less: current portion	(707,468)		(858,994)
Non-current financing leases obligations	$	14,781,070	$	9,260,313

Note 7 – Segment Reporting

The Company discloses segment information that is consistent with the way in which management operates and views its business. Effective during the quarter ended September 30, 2022, the Company increased its reportable segments to eight segments as the financial performance of certain operating segments has diverged to no longer satisfy the segment reporting aggregation criteria. This segment created new reportable segments within the five silo’s previously disclosed by the Company as reportable segments. All segments and the subsidiaries within each segment are geographically located in North America. Each subsidiary that is siloed together is based upon similar products or product lines, customer base, selling and distribution characteristics, and other common attributes. As such, the financial results are logical to review in this manner for comparison, trend, deviations ,etc. purposes. These silos are then further disaggregated based on the segment reporting guidance as certain entities have different historical financial performance based on the historical financial characteristics and maturation of the business that was acquired.

Management excludes the following when reviewing the profit/loss by segment.

•Intercompany Sales/COGS

•Management fees to the parent Company

•Income tax benefit/expense

There has not been any change to the measurement method in how management reviews the profit/loss by segment.

The operating segments and their business activity are as follows:

A4 Construction Services Morris Sheet Metal (“MSM”) provides commercial construction services primarily as a sheet metal contractor.

A4 Construction Services Excel Construction (“Excel”) provides commercial construction services primarily as a sheet metal contractor.

A4 Manufacturing Quality Circuit Assembly (QCA) is a contract manufacturer within the technology industry.

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.

In August 2020, in a matter relating to the Company’s subsidiary Horizon Well Testing, LLC (“Horizon”), 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 dba Venture West Energy Services, LLC ("VWES"). The Company brought suit in 2020 seeking to avoid the claimed liability due from the Company to Alan Martin, for the Company’s 2017 purchase of Mr. Martin’s business, Horizon. On summary judgment, the court found that the Company’s claim was barred by a time-limiting clause for indemnification claims. The Company disagrees with the court’s ruling and intends to appeal. Before the Company can file its appeal of the summary judgment order, the court must resolve Mr. Martin’s counterclaim in which Mr. Martin claims that Mr. Martin remains unpaid on the promissory note, as modified, under which the Company purchased the Horizon. The note balance is alleged to have a principal sum due of $3.3 million, plus interest at 8% accruing from 2019 to present, plus late fees accruing at $575 per day (see note 4). The Company continues to dispute the amount claimed due. As well, the Company’s legal position remains that the indebtedness should be discharged due to material misrepresentations by Mr. Martin in the original transaction.

In October 2021, in a matter relating to the Company’s subsidiary Horizon Well Testing, LLC (“Horizon”), 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 with respect to their employment contracts with Horizon. 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, and subsequently Mr. Morse’s case has been dismissed. Subsequently, a proposed settlement offer similar to the terms agreed to with Mr. Morse has been provided to Mr. Karraker, for which the Company is pending a response The Company has reached out to Mr. Hobbs to settle on terms similar to Mr. Morse but has not received a response and a formal proposal has not been sent.

Note 9 – Subsequent Events

In October 2022, the Company's subsidiary, Vayu, entered into a four-year Supplier Agreement with a U.S. Government contractor for Vayu's Unmanned Aerial Vehicles ("UAVs") to be supplied to Africa for assistance in counter terrorism activities.

In October 2022, the Company entered into a lease in San Jose, California through March 1, 2033. The Company determined the lease to be an operating lease and recognized a right-of-use asset of and operating lease liability of $5,506,357 based on the present value of the minimum lease payments discounted using an incremental borrowing rate of 4%.

In November 2022, the Company received a complaint filed by Mr. Mark Bell in the district court of Idaho (CV42-22-4066) with regard to the Company’s February 2020 purchase of Excel Fabrication LLC (“Excel”) from Mr. Bell, over the Company’s refusal to continue paying on a $2,300,000 note comprising part of the purchase consideration. In December 2022 the Company counter-sued Mr. Bell for breach of contract, fraud, and misrepresentation in the February 2020 sale of Excel to the Company. The case is set for trial in June of 2024.

In December 2022, the Company’s subsidiary Excel Fabrication LLC (“Excel”) received a demand for binding arbitration (AAA Case No. 01-22-0004-9935) by Starr Corporation of Idaho, a contractor for whom Excel Fabrication LLC was performing as sub-contractor and who stopped its work for Starr Corporation pursuant to its claimed contract right of termination due to failure of Starr Corporation to make payment within the contracted period for payment for work satisfactorily performed. Starr Corporation claims that Excel’s termination was wrongful, and seeks approximately $500,000, reflecting its costs in having to complete work that was called for under the contract. Excel is seeking a determination that its termination was rightful under the terms of the contract between the parties, and in addition seeks payment on its unpaid billing submittals and additional costs. Arbitration hearings are scheduled to commence in April 2024.

In February 2023 the Company learned that a complaint the State of New York brought against Vayu in 2019 (prior to the Company’s ownership of Vayu) seeking a refund for two returned airframes, a case which had originally been dismissed for lack of jurisdiction, had become revived by virtue of New York’s highest court ruling (State of New York v Vayu, APL-2021-00148) that the State’s long arm statute applied to the 2016 transaction between Vayu and the State University of New York at Stonybrook. Total damages sought by the State of New York are less than $100,000, including interest and costs. The company is currently considering its options for reaching a settlement with the State of New York, and for the possibility of seeking redress from the previous owners of Vayu.

In April 2023, a certain investor converted 1.3 million shares of Class B common stock and 1 share of Class B preferred stock for 1,300,001 shares of Class A common stock.

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:

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.

28

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.

Revenue

Our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2022, increased by $10,088,099 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021. In 2022, the increase in revenue was related to the RCA acquisition. Revenues for RCA for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $11,477,833. The remaining decline in revenues is due to loss of major customers for Alt Labs.

Cost of revenue

Our cost of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022, increased by $8,268,137 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021. In 2022, the increase in cost of revenue is related to the acquisition of RCA. Cost of revenue for RCA was $7,671,891. The remaining increase in cost of revenues is related to increased pricing from supply chain shortage.

Operating expenses

Our operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2022, increased by $4,039,521 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase is due to the acquisition of RCA.

30

Other income (expenses)

Other income for the three months ended September 30, 2022, decreased by $4,613,004 as compared to the same period in 2021. This decrease was primarily due to the gain on forgiveness of debt from the PPP loans forgiven in 2021. The increase in interest expense is due to interest incurred on the various lines of credit totaling $232,506 for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

The following are the results of our operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Revenue

Our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, increased by $38,411,110 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. In 2022, the increase in revenue was related to the acquisition of RCA. Revenues for RCA were $29,625,368. The remaining increase was due to the full year of operations for Alt Labs and TDI in 2022 compared to only five months of operations in 2021. The additional four months of operations in 2022 resulted in additional sales for Alt Labs and TDI of approximately $4.7 million and $3.1 million, respectively. The remaining operations remained relatively consistent between years.

31

Cost of revenue

Our cost of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, increased by $29,511,827 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. In 2022, the increase in cost of revenue was related to the acquisition of RCA. Cost of revenue for RCA was $21,475,175. The remaining increase was due to the full year of operations for Alt Labs and TDI in 2022 compared to only five months of operations in 2021. The additional four months of operations in 2022 resulted in additional sales for Alt Labs and TDI of approximately $1.0 million and $1.1 million, respectively. The remaining increase in cost of revenues is related to increased pricing from supply chain shortage seen within the construction and manufacturing companies. The net result of the increase in our cost of revenue dollars in comparison to our revenue was an increase in our gross profit percentage from 23.0% during the first nine months ended September 30, 2021, to 23.1% in the first nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Company expects as supply chain constraints ease that gross profit will continue to rise.

Operating expenses

Our operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, increased by $4,526,951 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase is due to the acquisitions of RCA, Alt Labs, and TDI. Operating expenses for RCA was $5,755,325. General and administrative expenses also increased due to the full year of operations for Alt Labs and TDI in 2022 compared to only five months of operations in 2021. The increase in expenses was also offset by a $5.9 million gain on sale of property for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Other income (expenses)

Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, decreased by $4,486,825 as compared to the same period in 2021 due to a combined $4.4 million gain on extinguished/forgiveness of debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

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. 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.

The Company also has bank lines of credit totaling $33.0 million as of December 31, 2022, of which $18.8 million was secured as of December 31, 2021. 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

32

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 assets. 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 nine months ended September 30, 2022.

For a summary of our significant accounting policies, refer to Note 3 of our consolidated financial statements included under Item 8 – Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed on March 17, 2023.

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 Internal Control over Financial Reporting

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, September 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, as of the end of the period covered by this Report, the Company's management has 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: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) inadequate control activities and monitoring processes over financial reporting. As a result of the restatement of certain of the Company’s publicly filed financial statements filed on March 17, 2023 and March 28, 2023, management concluded that there was an additional material weakness in the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. (Please also see "Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting" below.)

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. The Company is also in the process of switching ERP systems to provide greater IT controls over financial reporting. Management anticipates making significant progress to remediate these areas of material weakness in 2023 and has engaged a third-party specialty management consultant firm to help facilitate the process.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

As discussed in more detail below, there is a material weaknesses in disclosure controls and procedures as well as a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2022, that would have remediated these material weakness. However, the Company has made significant efforts to remedy this in 2023.

Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A material weakness is defined as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

33

As described in the December 31, 2021 10-K/A, there remains a material weakness around inadequate segregation of duties from a lack of accounting personnel and inherent system limitations of the current ERP system. Further some of the recent business combinations contained complex non-routine estimates and transactions that Management did not have the appropriate expertise to evaluate and account for, which resulted in material misstatements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2021, as well as a correction to the balance sheet for the periods ended March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022 as noted in the Form 10-K/A file on March 17, 2023 and 10-Q/A filed on March 28, 2023.

Remediation

The Company is committed to remediating these material weaknesses as promptly as possible. In addition to the additional staff hired to aid in the material weakness over segregation of duties, as of the date of this Report, the Company was also in the process of switching ERP systems to provide greater IT controls over financial reporting. Management anticipates making significant progress to remediate these areas of material weakness in 2023 and has engaged a third-party specialty management consultant firm to help facilitate the process. Further, the Company has engaged a tax specialist CPA firm to assist with the preparation of the tax provision and other tax related items. These material weaknesses will not be deemed remediated until the remediation efforts described herein have been in place and tested and deemed to be designed, implemented and operating effectively. We plan for this to occur later in 2023.

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.

See Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report.

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.
