CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements and information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 (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, 2020.  

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.

Acquisition Reporting

As discussed in Note 9, the Company entered into a stock purchase transaction with QCA in which the Company purchased 100% of QCA's outstanding stock.

presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements herein are presented under predecessor entity reporting and, becausepresent the acquiring entity had nominalbalance sheets, statements of operations, as compared with the acquired company, QCA, prior historical information of the acquirer is not presented.


This new basis of accounting was created on April 1, 2016, the effective date for financial reporting purposes of the stock purchase agreement.  In the following discussion, the results of the operations and cash flows for the periods ended on or prior to March 31, 2016 are referred to as "Predecessor" financial information, and the results of operationsstockholders' deficit and cash flows of the Company for periods beginning April 1, 2016Company. 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 positionstatements 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.

While the Company experienced a loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, of $6.8 million, and had a negative cash flow used in operations, there were several significant one-time / non-recurring items included in the $6.8 million net loss.  These non-recurring items totaled $2.2 million, consisting of $350 thousand in new acquisitions expenses captured in professional fees, and other costs, and $1.8 million for repurchase of RSUs.

The Company received a total of approximately $54.0 million in February 2021 in the following two transactions:

·The Company raised approximately $45.0 million in net proceeds in connection with a registered direct offering of its stock and;  

·The Company raised approximately $9.0 million in net proceeds in connection with an equity line of credit financing arrangement.  

The Company has secured bank financing totaling $9.3 million ($8.3 million in Lines of Credit and $1.0 million in capital expenditures lines of credit availability) of which $5.6 million was unused at September 30, 2021.

The Company plans to continue to generate additional revenue (and improve cash flows from operations) partly from the acquisitions of three operating companies which closed in May 2021 and October 2021 combined with improved gross profit performance from the existing operating companies.

Based on the capital raise as indicated above and management’s plans to improve cash flows from operations, management believes the Company has sufficient working capital to satisfy the Company’s estimated liquidity needs for the next 12 months. The Company ended the September 30, 2021, quarter with approximately $5.4 million in cash and working capital of $9.3 million. As of the date of this Report, the Company ashad approximately $3.5 million in cash. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company paid down liabilities of April 1, 2016approximately $13.1 million. In addition, approximately $7.2 million was used to build inventory and subsequent balance sheet dates are referredfor capital expenditures.

However, there is no assurance that management’s plans will be successful due to herein as "Successor" consolidated financial information.


the current economic climate in the United States and globally.

Use  Preparation of estimates

The preparation ofthese financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Companyus to make estimates and judgmentsassumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, and liabilities, revenuesrevenue, costs and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities.  Thesedisclosures. The Company bases its estimates and judgments are based on historical information, information that is currently available to the Companyexperience and on various other assumptions that the Companyit believes to be reasonable underreasonable. In many instances, the circumstances.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, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and impairment of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ significantly from thoseour estimates.
To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, the Company’s future financial



Reclassification

Certain prior year amounts

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 2021 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 been reclassified to conform toon the current period presentation.  These reclassifications had noCompany’s financial results during 2021 and beyond.  COVID-19 did have a negative impact on net earningsthe Company’s financial performance in 2020.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, there was no impairment charge related to intangible assets and financial position.

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 each period.


For three months ended March 31, 2016 (Predecessor) and the six months ended September 30, 2016 (Successor),principal or most advantageous market for the Company had two customers that made up approximately 50% of outstanding accounts receivable.  For the three months ended September 30, 2017 (Successor), and nine months ended September 30, 2017 (Successor), the Company had two customers that made up approximately 54% of outstanding accounts receivable.  All other customers were less than 10% each of total accounts receivable for each period presented.

Accounts Receivable

The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changesasset or liability in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Reserves are recorded primarily on a specific identification basis.  As of September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, allowance for bad debt was $177,470 and $0, respectively.

Inventory

Inventory is valued at the lower of the inventory's cost (weighted average basis) or market. Management compares the cost of inventory with itsan orderly transaction between market value and an allowance is made to write down inventory to market value, if lower.  Inventory is segregated into four areas, raw materials, WIP, finished goods, and In-Transit.  Below is a breakdown of how much inventory was in each area as of September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost less depreciation. Depreciation and amortization are provided principallyparticipants on the straight-line method overmeasurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the estimated useful livesuse 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 which range from ten years to 39 years as follows:


Automobiles & Trucks10 to 20 years
Buildings39 years
Leasehold Improvements15 years or time remaining on lease (whichever is shorter)
Equipment10 years

Maintenanceor liabilities.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and repair coststhat are charged against income as incurred.  Significant improvementsfinancial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or betterments are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated life of the asset.

Customer List15 years
Non-compete agreements5 years
Software development5 years

Below are tables for Intangibles and Other Long-Lived Assets:

Intangibles

Restricted Cash $255,709  $630,270 
Deposits  58,596   57,934 
  $314,305  $688,204 

Restricted cash consists of deposit account collateralizing letters of credit in favor of the counterparty in our lease financing obligation.  Changes in restricted cash are reflected as financing activities because the cash is being used in conjunction with financing activities.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") 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 all periods presented, there have been no impairment losses.

Goodwill

In financial reporting, goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year 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 conditionssimilar techniques, as well as future expectations.  All assessmentsinstruments for which the determination of goodwill impairment are conducted at the individual reporting unit level.  As of September 30, 2017, the only reporting units with goodwill were QCA and HWT.
11

The Company used qualitative factors according to Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 350-20-35-3 to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying amount.  Based on the qualitative criteria the company believes there not to be any triggers for potential impairment of goodwill and therefore the Company has recorded no impairment of goodwill in any period presented.

Fair Value Measurement

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 linelines 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.  For additional information, please see Note 11 – Derivative Liabilities

The carrying value of long-term debt approximates fair value since the related rates of interest approximate current market rates.  As of September 30, 2021 and Fair Value Measurements.

Redeemable Common Stock

As discussed in Note 9 below 379,403 shares of Class A common stock that were issued as consideration for the HWT acquisition contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of common stock at the option of the holder. In accordance with ASC 480, redemption provisions not solely within the control ofDecember 31, 2020, the Company require the security to be classified outside of permanent equity.   Accordingly, at September 30, 2017, 379,403 shares of Class A common stockhad no financial assets or liabilities that were classified outside of permanent equity at its redemption value.
Revenue Recognition

ALTIA

The Company accounts for its revenue per the guidance in ASC 605-25-25 by allocating the total contract amount between the product and service elements.  When a vehicle is sold to the driving consumer who purchases the 6th Sense Auto service, the cost of the service is added to the price of the car and the amount collected by the dealership for this service is remitted to the Company.  At the time the vehicle is purchased, the Company recognizes the service portion of the contract over the service period of generally 12 to 36 months.

Quality Circuit Assembly

The Company accounts for its revenue per the guidance in ASC 605-25-25 by allocating the total contract amount between the product and service elements.  Revenue is recognized when either the product has completely been built and shipped or the service has been completed.  If a deposit for product or service is received prior to completion the payment is recorded to deferred revenue until such point the product or services meets our revenue recognition policy.  Management assesses the materiality and likelihood of warranty work and returns, and records reserves as needed.  For all periods presented, management determined that the warranty and returns would be immaterial.

Horizon Well Testing

Revenue is recognized when the contract has been performed in completion.  Contracts range from one day to 30 days in length.

Deferred Revenue

Due to how the Company recognizes revenue deferred revenue can be present.  Deferred revenue greater than 12 months is classified as long-term, anything less is classified as short-term.
12


ALTIA

For the period ending September 30, 2017 deferred revenue is $89,078 for short-term and $53 for long-term.  There was no deferred revenue for the period ending December 31, 2016.  The increase is due to the sale of the 6th Sense product into two new dealerships.  The install at these dealerships took place in October 2017.

Quality Circuit Assembly

For the period ending September 30, 2017 deferred revenue is $41,149 for short-term and $0 for long-term.  For the period ending December 31, 2016 deferred revenue was $12,536 for short-term and $0 for long-term.  The increase is due to the timing of sales with prepay customers.

Horizon Well Testing

There is no deferred revenue for any periods presented.

Leases

Leases are reviewed by management and examined to see if they are required to be categorizedfair valued on a recurring basis.

Equity Investments

The Company’s equity investments consist of investment in one private company in which the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over their operating and financial activities. This investment is carried at cost as an operating lease, a capital leasethere is no market for the common stock and LLC membership units, accordingly, no quoted market price is available. The investment is tested for impairment, at least annually, and more frequently upon the occurrences of certain events.




The Company has adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-01 and values the investment using the measurement alternative, defined as cost, less any impairment, plus or a financing transaction.


minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer.

Income taxes

The Company records income taxes under the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and attributable to operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Accounting standards regarding income taxes requires a reduction of the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance, if based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. Accordingly, the need to establish valuation allowances for deferred tax assets is assessed at each reporting period based on a more-likely-than-not realization threshold. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carry forward periods, the Company's experience with operating loss and tax credit carry forwards not expiring unused, and tax planning alternatives.
13


The Company recorded valuation allowances on the net deferred tax assets.  Management will reassess the realization of deferred tax assets based on the accounting standards for income taxes each reporting period. To the extent that the financial results of operations improve, and it becomes more likely than not that the deferred tax assets are realizable, the Company will be able to reduce the valuation allowance.

Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company's tax positions and determining its provision for income taxes. During the ordinary course of business, there are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Accounting standards regarding uncertainty in income taxes provides a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely, based solely on the technical merits, of being sustained on examinations. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments, and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes.

Embedded Conversion Features

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging" to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings.  If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20 "Debt with Conversion and Other Options" for consideration of any beneficial conversion features.

Related Party Disclosure

FASB ASC 850, "Related Party Disclosures" requires companies to include in their financial statements disclosures of material related party transactions. The Company discloses all material related party transactions. Related parties are defined to include any principal owner, director or executive officer of the Company and any immediate family members of a principal owner, director or executive officer.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 will eliminate transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current US GAAP and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 will require that companies recognize revenue based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract. The ASU also will require additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. Entities can transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption.

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. The amendment in this ASU defers the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 for all entities for one year. Public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans should apply the guidance in ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods with that reporting period.

Management is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and has not determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting.
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. ASU 2015-02 provides guidance on the consolidation evaluation for reporting organizations that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability corporations, and securitization structures (collateralized debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations, and mortgage-backed security transactions). ASU 2015-02 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2015.
14


In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. The new guidance requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted this ASU, and all financial periods presented herein reflect this.  There were no significant impacts on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The guidance in ASU No. 2016-02 supersedes the lease recognition requirements in ASC Topic 840, Leases (FAS 13). ASU 2016-02 requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities arising from a lease for both financing and operating leases, along with additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this standard will have on its financial statements.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial statements.

Note 3 – Going Concern


Leases

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared onCompany determines whether a going concern basis. The working capitalcontract 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 is currently negative and causes doubtuses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of the ability forCompany’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company to continue. The Company requires capital formust discount lease payments based on an estimate of its operational and marketing activities.  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 transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise 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 with this uncertainty, the Company has a three-fold plan to resolve these risks.  First, the acquisition of QCA has allowed for an increased level of cash flow to the Company as demonstrated in the sales for the second and third quarters of 2016.  Second, the Company has acquired HWT and is considering other potential acquisition targets that, like QCA, should increase income and cash flow to the Company.  Third, the Company plans to issue additional shares of common stock for cash and services during the next 12 months and has engaged MCAP, LLC to provide advisory services in connection with that capital raise.

Note 11 – Derivative Liabilities2021, and Fair Value Measurements

Derivative liabilities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company issued a convertible note dated July 19, 2017 (see "Note 7 – Convertible Notes Payable").

This note was evaluated under FASB ASC 815-40, Derivatives2020, and Hedging and was determined to have characteristics of derivative liability under the above guidance.  Each reporting period, this derivative liability is marked-to-market with the non-cash gain or loss recorded in the period as a gain or loss on derivatives.  On September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the aggregate fair value of the derivative liabilities was $175,332 and $0, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, certain notes issued, conversion options relating to convertible debt with a fixed conversion price that had been previously issued, and the outstanding Class A common stock warrants became tainted and were required to be accounted for as derivative liabilities under ASC 815.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and twelve months ended December 31, 2016, the aggregate change in the fair value of derivative liabilities was a gain of $72,361 and $0, respectively.

The valuation of our embedded derivatives is determined by using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.  As such, our derivative liabilities have been classified as Level 3.
24


The Company estimated the fair value of the derivative liabilities using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model and the following key assumptions during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Expected dividend yield0%
Weighted average expected volatility200%
Weighted average risk-free interest rate2.38%
Expected terms (years).50 to 2.67

Fair value measurements

FASB 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.  FASB 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.  FASB 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.

If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

The following table provides a summary of the fair value of our derivative liabilities as of September 30, 20172021 and December 31, 2016.

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. 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, discovery was proceeding. The Company intends to pursue vigorously its claims.

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). The parties have engaged in discovery and settlement negotiations, both of which were ongoing as of the date of this Report. Additionally, a settlement conference is scheduled for November 18, 2021.

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 and slander for disseminating false and misleading statements about Alpine 4 and its employees to manipulate the stock price and further their own financial interests.

Business Strategy

What We Do:

Alexander Hamilton in smaller middle market operating companies with revenues between $5his “Federalist paper #11”, said that our adventurous spirit distinguishes the commercial character of America.  Hamilton knew that our freedom to $150 million.  In this target rich environment,be creative gave American businesses generally sell at more reasonable multiples, presenting greater opportunities for operational and strategic improvements and have greater potential for growth.   Implementationa competitive advantage over the rest of our strategy within our holdings is accomplished by the offering of strategic and tactical MBA-level training and development, delivered via the following modules:


-Alpine 4 Mini MBA program; and
-An Alpine 4 developed ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) and collaboration system called SPECTRUMebos.  SPECTRUMebos is what we are defining as an Enterprise Business Operating System (ebos).  This system will combine the key technology software components of Accounting and Financial Reporting, an Enterprise Resource Planning System (ERP), a Document Management System (DMS), a Business Intelligence (BI) platform and a Customer Resource Management (CRM) hub which will be tethered to management reporting and collaboration toolsets. Management believesworld.  We believe that these tools will help drive real-time information in two directions: first, to the front lines by empowering customer-facing stakeholders; and second, back to management for planning, problem solving, and integration.   Management believes that SPECTRUMebos will be the technology "secret sauce" in managing our portfolio of companies and, in time, will be an offering to external customers.

All great strategies must have trade-offs. Therefore, Alpine 4 avoids companiesalso exemplifies this spirit in our subsidiaries and that have unionized employees, businesses that have more than $150 million in revenue, and companies that operate inour greatest competitive advantage is our highly regulateddiverse business industries.

Diversification

structure combined with a culture of collaboration.

It is our goalmandate to help drivegrow 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 has been set upsister 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 holding company model, with Presidents who will run eachcollaborative business culture, that helps drive out competition in our markets by bringing; resources, planning, technology and Managers with specific industry related experience who, along with Kent Wilson, the CEO of Alpine 4, will help guide our portfolio of companies as needed.  Alpine 4 will work with our Presidents and Managers to ensurecapacity that our mottocompetitors 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.




Picture 

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 S.I.D.E (Synergistic, Innovation, Drives, Excellence)the company we are buying.  Those three major points are what we call the “What is, utilized.  Further,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 work withold 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 capital partners to providefinally, the proper capital allocation and, to work to make sure each business is executing at high levels. 

subsidiaries they manage must have posted a net profit for 3 consecutive months.

The obtainment of additional financing, the successful development of the Company's contemplated plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

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


The preparation of

Our consolidated financial statements and related disclosuresare prepared in conformityaccordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("in the United States, or U.S. GAAP") and the Company's discussion and analysisGAAP. Preparation of itsthese financial condition and operating results require the Company's managementstatements requires us to make judgments,estimates and assumptions and estimates that affect the reported amounts reported in its condensed consolidated financial statementsof assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and accompanying notes.  Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," of this Form 10-Q describes the significant accounting policiesexpenses and methods used in the preparation of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. Management bases itsrelated disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believesthat we believe to be reasonable underreasonable. In many instances, we could have reasonably used different accounting estimates and in other instances changes in the circumstances, the resultsaccounting estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. This applies in particular to useful lives of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values ofnon-current assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates and such differences may be material.


Management believes the Company's critical accounting policies and estimates are those related to revenue recognition, inventory valuation and lease accounting. Management considers these policies critical because they are both important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and operating results, and they require management to make judgments and estimates about inherently uncertain matters.

Revenue Recognition

ALTIA

The Company accountsallowance for ALTIA's revenue per the guidance in ASC 605-25-25 by allocating the total contract amount between the product and service elements.  When a vehicle is sold to the driving consumer who purchases the 6th Sense Auto service, the cost of the service is added to the price of the car and the amount collected by the dealership for this service is remitted to the Company.  At the time the vehicle is purchased, the Company recognizes the service portion of the contract over the service period of generally 12 to 36 months.

Quality Circuit Assembly

The Company accounts for QCA's revenue per the guidance in ASC 605-25-25 by allocating the total contract amount between the product and service elements.  Revenue is recognized when either the product has completely been built and shipped or the service has been completed.  If a deposit for product or service is received prior to completion the payment is recorded to deferred revenue until such point the product or services meets our revenue recognition policy.  Management assesses the materiality and likelihood of warranty work and returns, and records reserves as needed.  For all periods presented, management determined that the warranty and returns would be immaterial.

Horizon Well Testing

Revenue is recognized when the contract has been performed in completion.  Contracts range from one day to 30 days in length.
32

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries as of September 30, 2017 (Successor), and December 31, 2016.  Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Basis of presentation

The accompanying 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 U.S. GAAP.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities.  These estimates and judgments are based on historical information, information that is currently available to the Company and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances.tax assets. Actual results could differ significantly from thoseour estimates.

Advertising

Advertising costs To the extent that there are expensed when incurred.  All advertising takes place at the timematerial differences between these estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of expense.  We have no long-term contracts for advertising.  Advertising expense for all periods presented were under $10,000.

Cash

Cashoperations and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term investments with original maturities of less than 90 days.  Cash equivalents are placed with high credit quality financial institutions and are primarily in money market funds.  The carrying value of those investments approximates fair value. As of September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the Company hadflows will be affected. Management believes that there have been no cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Reserves are recorded primarily on a specific identification basis.  As of September 30, 2017 (Successor), and March 31, 2016 (Predecessor), allowance for bad debt was $177,470 and $0, respectively.

Inventory

Inventory is valued at the lower of the inventory's cost (weighted average basis) or market. Management compares the cost of inventory with its market value and an allowance is made to write down inventory to market value, if lower.  Inventory is segregated into four areas, raw materials, WIP, finished goods, and In-Transit.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost less depreciation. Depreciation and amortization are provided principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from ten years to 39 years as follows:
33


Automobiles & Trucks10 to 20 years
Buildings39 years
Leasehold Improvements15 years or time remaining on lease (whichever is shorter)
Equipment10 years

Maintenance and repair costs are charged against income as incurred.  Significant improvements or betterments are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated life of the asset.

Purchased Intangibles and Other Long-Lived Assets

The Company amortizes intangible assets with finite lives over their estimated useful lives, which range between five and fifteen years as follows:

Customer List15 years
Non-compete agreements5 years
Software development5 years

Impairment of Intangibles

The Company evaluates intangible assets for impairment on a yearly basis or as needed.  Duringour critical accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 (Successor), there have been no impairment losses.

Impairment2021. 

For a summary of Long-Lived Assets


The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisionsour critical accounting policies, refer to Note 2 of FASB 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 the nine months ended September 30, 2017 (Successor), there have been no impairment losses.

Goodwill

Inour consolidated financial reporting, goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year 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, declinesstatements included under Item 8 – Financial Statements 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, 2017, the only reporting units with goodwill were QCA and HWT.
Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on April 15, 2021.



The Company used qualitative factors according to ASC 350-20-35-3 to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying amount.  Based on the qualitative criteria the company believes there not to be any triggers for potential impairment of goodwill and therefore the Company has recorded no impairment of goodwill in any period presented.

Fair Value Measurement

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, convertible notes, notes and line 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.
34

Leases

Leases are reviewed by management and examined to see if they are required to be categorized as an operating lease, a capital lease or a financing transaction.

Earnings (loss) per share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive securities had been issued. The only potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the periods presented were the convertible debentures, but they are anti-dilutive due to the net loss incurred.  All earnings (loss) per common share have been adjusted retroactively for periods presented to reflect changes in number of shares as a result of the reverse stock split amount.

Redeemable Common Stock

As discussed in Note 9 above 379,403 shares of Class A common stock that were issued as consideration for the HWT acquisition contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of Class A common stock at the option of the holder. In accordance with ASC 480, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require the security to be classified outside of permanent equity.   Accordingly, at September 30, 2017, 379,403 shares of the Class A common stock were classified outside of permanent equity at its redemption value.
Stock-based compensation

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718-10, Compensation – Stock Compensation, and the conclusions reached by FASB ASC 505-50, Equity – Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment is reached or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by FASB ASC 505-50.

Income taxes

The Company records income taxes under the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and attributable to operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Accounting standards regarding income taxes requires a reduction of the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance, if based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. Accordingly, the need to establish valuation allowances for deferred tax assets is assessed at each reporting period based on a more-likely-than-not realization threshold. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carry forward periods, the Company's experience with operating loss and tax credit carry forwards not expiring unused, and tax planning alternatives.

The Company recorded valuation allowances on the net deferred tax assets.  Management will reassess the realization of deferred tax assets based on the accounting standards for income taxes each reporting period. To the extent that the financial results of operations improve, and it becomes more likely than not that the deferred tax assets are realizable, the Company will be able to reduce the valuation allowance.
35

Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company's tax positions and determining its provision for income taxes. During the ordinary course of business, there are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Accounting standards regarding uncertainty in income taxes provides a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely, based solely on the technical merits, of being sustained on examinations. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments, and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes.

Embedded Conversion Features

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging" to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings.  If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20 "Debt with Conversion and Other Options" for consideration of any beneficial conversion features.

Related Party Disclosure

FASB ASC 850, "Related Party Disclosures" requires companies to include in their financial statements disclosures of material related party transactions. The Company discloses all material related party transactions. Related parties are defined to include any principal owner, director or executive officer of the Company and any immediate family members of a principal owner, director or executive officer.

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, JuneSeptember 30, 2017.2021. 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, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, 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; and (iii) failure in the process for identification and disclosure of related party transactions; and (iv) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both U.S. GAAP and SEC guidelines.

We plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal controlprocesses over financial reporting. DuringHowever, as discussed in our Annual Report for the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q,year ended December 31, 2020, we have not been ablehired additional qualified accounting personnel, including a Corporate Controller. We have continued to remediateaddress and mitigate these material weaknesses through the implementation and testing of controls and ensure that controls that are properly designed are adequately performed to appropriately address risk related to critical functionality. Management will continue to work to improve the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures throughout 2021 and we believe that we have made significant progress in a short period of time. Management will continue to work to improve the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures throughout 2021, with a goal of remediating the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we hope to implement the following changes during our fiscal year endingno later than December 31, 2017: (i) appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. The remediation efforts set out in (i) and (ii) are largely dependent upon our securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If2022. We believe that we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.   Legal Proceedings.

There are not presently any material pending

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 whichinherent 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, discovery was proceeding. The Company intends to pursue vigorously its claims.

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). The parties have engaged in discovery and settlement negotiations, both of which were ongoing as of the date of this Report. Additionally, a settlement conference is scheduled for November 18, 2021.




In May 2021, the Company and several shareholders filed a partylawsuit 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 Cap has not been served with the Complaint.  The Company plans to move for an order permitting public service of the Complaint on Fin Cap pursuant to Arizona law.

Item 1A.RISK FACTORS

Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, 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 asexacerbated by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

We continue to face risks related to Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) which have significantly disrupted our manufacturing, research and development, operations, sales and financial results, and could continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

Our business has been and will continue to be adversely impacted by the effects of the Novel Coronavirus (“COVID-19”), although we are seeking to resume and rebuild operations of all of our subsidiaries to pre-COVID-19 levels.  Nevertheless, in addition to global macroeconomic effects, the COVID-19 outbreak and any other related adverse public health developments may continue to cause disruption to our international operations and sales activities. Our third-party manufacturers, suppliers, third-party distributors, sub-contractors and customers have been and will be disrupted by worker absenteeism, quarantines and restrictions on our employees’ ability to work, office and factory closures, disruptions to ports and other shipping infrastructure, border closures, or other travel or health-related restrictions. Depending on the magnitude of such effects on our manufacturing, assembling, and testing activities or the operations of our suppliers, third-party distributors, or sub-contractors, our supply chain, manufacturing and product shipments will be delayed, which could adversely affect our business, operations and customer relationships. In addition, COVID-19 and its variants or other disease outbreak will in the short-run and may over the longer term adversely affect the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn that will affect demand for our products and impact our operating results. There can be no assurance that any decrease in sales resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak will be offset by increased sales in subsequent periods. Although the magnitude of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our business and operations remains uncertain, the continued spread of COVID-19 and any of its propertyvariants or the occurrence of other epidemics and the imposition of related public health measures and travel and business restrictions will adversely impact our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows. In addition, we have experienced and will experience disruptions to our business operations resulting from quarantines, self-isolations, or other movement and restrictions on the ability of our employees to perform their jobs that may impact our ability to develop and design our products in a timely manner or meet required milestones or customer commitments.

The impact on our operations of shortages, or additional shortages that may surface, related to COVID-19 is subject,uncertain, but could potentially impact our future sales, manufacturing operations and no such proceedingsfinancial results.    Continued progression of these circumstances could result in a decline in customer orders, as our customers could shift purchases to lower-priced or other perceived value offerings or reduce their purchases and inventories due to decreased budgets, reduced access to credit or various other factors, and impair our ability to manufacture our products, which could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and cash flow.  While the current impacts of COVID-19 are knownreflected in our results of operations, we cannot at this time separate the direct COVID-19 impacts from other factors that cause our performance to vary from quarter to quarter. The ultimate duration and impact of the CompanyCOVID-19 pandemic on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows is dependent on future developments, including the duration and severity of the pandemic, and the related length of its impact on the global economy, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, we may continue to experience an adverse impact to our business as a result of its national and, to some extent, global economic impact. Furthermore, the extent to which our mitigation efforts are successful, if at all, is not presently ascertainable.  However, our results of operations in future periods may continue to be threatened or contemplated against it.
