−Removed: Goodwill and Intangible Assets:
−Removed: As reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, as of December 31, 2024, the Company’s goodwill and intangible assets were $0 and $19.4 million, respectively.
−Removed: As disclosed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if indicators of impairment require the performance of an interim impairment assessment.
−Removed: Intangible assets, at least annually, are tested for possible impairment when events or changes in circumstances that the carrying amount of the asset group may not be recoverable.
−Removed: During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized impairment charges for the Company’s goodwill and intangible assets of $34.9 and $2.2 million, respectively.
−Removed: We identified the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets as a critical audit matter because of the significant judgment required by management to determine estimated expected revenues, growth, and discounted cash flows.
−Removed: This required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s judgments and estimates.
−Removed: The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
−Removed: Evaluating management’s ability to forecast future cash flow assumptions including, but not limited to, the forecasted performance driven by expected industry receptivity, existing sales orders or outstanding bids, market share, and expected operating costs.
−Removed: Reviewing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used in management’s forecast.
−Removed: Assessing the underlying source information and mathematical accuracy of the calculations.
−Removed: Derivative Liabilities:

−Removed: The Company determined certain of the features included in the Series C and Series G Preferred Stock designations, including the conversion, dividend, and liquidation value, required that the conversion and dividend components be bifurcated and accounted for on a stand-alone basis as derivatives.
−Removed: The determination of fair value of these derivatives involved using complex valuation methodologies and significant assumptions including volume weighted prices and the estimated valuation of the Company’s common stock taking into consideration the effect of these dilutive instruments.
−Removed: We identified auditing the Company’s evaluation of the accounting for the features included in the Series C Preferred Stock, specifically the methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities, as a critical audit matter because of the significant judgments and assumptions required by management.
−Removed: The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
−Removed: Obtaining and reviewing the underlying Series C Preferred Stock certificate of designation and related amendments to understand the terms and conditions, economic substance, and identify embedded features requiring evaluation.
−Removed: Testing management’s development of the assumptions used in the valuation models applied and the reasonableness of those assumptions.

+Added: Intangible Asset Impairment
+Added: Refer to Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Intangible Assets , and Note 6, Intangible Assets , to the financial statements.
+Added: Critical Audit Matter Description
+Added: The Company’s evaluation of long-lived intangible assets for impairment involves the comparison of the fair value of each asset to its carrying value.
+Added: The Company estimates fair value primarily using the income approach, which is based on the present value of estimated future cash flows attributable to the respective assets.
+Added: This requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to forecasts of future revenues, operating margins, cash flows (including growth rates beyond the explicit forecast period), royalty rates (where applicable), and discount rates (weighted-average cost of capital).
+Added: Changes in these assumptions could have a material impact on either the fair value determination or the amount of any impairment charge.
+Added: During the year, the Company performed its annual impairment assessments as of December 31, 2025, and also performed interim quantitative impairment tests due to identified triggering events, e.g., adverse changes in market conditions, increased competition, reduced cash flows, or macroeconomic factors.
+Added: The estimated fair value of the ESG Clean Energy license was determined to be zero, resulting in an impairment charge of approximately $3.7 million.
+Added: The estimated fair value of the Other intangibles – Variable Interest Entities were determined to be in excess of their carrying values, resulting in no impairment charges.
+Added: We identified the Company’s impairment evaluations of long-lived intangible assets as a critical audit matter because of significant judgments made by management to estimate the fair values of the assets.
+Added: A high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort was required when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s forecasts, growth rates, royalty rates, discount rates, and fair-value allocations.
+Added: How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
+Added: Our principal audit procedures related to the Company’s impairment evaluations included the following:
+Added: We evaluated management’s ability to accurately forecast revenues, margins, and cash flows by comparing actual results to management’s historical forecasts.
+Added: We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s forecasts of revenues, operating margins, and cash flows by comparing them to:
+Added: Historical results;
+Added: Underlying business strategies and growth plans;
+Added: Internal communications to management and the Board of Directors;
+Added: Forecasted information included in Company press releases, earnings calls, and analyst and industry reports for the Company and peer companies.
+Added: We evaluated the reasonableness of the valuation methodologies, growth rates, royalty rates, discount rates, and fair-value allocations by:
+Added: Testing the source information underlying the determination of those assumptions and the mathematical accuracy of the calculations;
+Added: Developing a range of independent estimates for the discount rates and terminal growth rates and comparing those ranges to the rates selected by management;

+Added: Accounting for Investment in Simson-Maxwell Ltd.
+Added: – Deconsolidation, Equity Method Accounting, and Subsequent Change to Fair Value
+Added: Refer to Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Investment in Unconsolidated Entity , and Note 4, Investment in Simson-Maxwell , to the financial statements.
+Added: Critical Audit Matter Description
+Added: During the year, the Company’s ownership interest in Simson-Maxwell Ltd.
+Added: (“Simson-Maxwell”) decreased below 50% due to an external dilution of the Company’s equity interest in Simson-Maxwell on April 1, 2025, resulting in the loss of a controlling financial interest.
+Added: The Company deconsolidated Simson-Maxwell effective April 1, 2025 and recognized a gain on deconsolidation of approximately $6.2 million, calculated based on the fair value of the retained interest at the date control was lost.
+Added: For the portion of the year following deconsolidation through September 30, 2025, the retained interest was accounted for under the equity method of accounting because the Company determined it continued to exercise significant influence over the investee (primarily through board representation and other participatory rights).
+Added: During the quarter ended December 31, 2025, management concluded that significant influence was no longer present, at which point the investment was remeasured to fair value and subsequently accounted for as an equity security under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 321, Investments – Equity Securities , with changes in fair value recognized in operations.
+Added: We identified the accounting for the changes in the Company’s investment in Simson-Maxwell (including the deconsolidation, application of the equity method for a portion of the year, determination of the date when significant influence was lost, and the related fair value measurements) as a critical audit matter.
+Added: This was due to the significant judgments required by management in (1) assessing the date when control was lost, (2) evaluating qualitative and quantitative factors to determine the presence or absence of significant influence, and (3) estimating the fair value of the retained interest at both the deconsolidation date and the date significant influence ceased.
+Added: These judgments involved complex considerations under ASC 810, Consolidation , and ASC 323, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures , including analysis of governance documents, board rights, contractual arrangements, and market data.
+Added: A high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort was required when performing audit procedures to evaluate the appropriateness of the accounting conclusions and the reasonableness of the fair value determinations.
+Added: How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
+Added: Our principal audit procedures related to the Company’s accounting for the investment in Simson-Maxwell included the following:
+Added: We evaluated management’s determination of the deconsolidation date, and the date significant influence was lost by reviewing relevant governance documents, board minutes, contractual agreements, ownership percentages, and other evidence of the Company’s ability to exercise control or significant influence.
+Added: We evaluated the Company’s calculation of the gain on deconsolidation, including the remeasurement of the retained interest to fair value at the deconsolidation date, by testing the underlying data and assumptions used in the valuation.
+Added: We evaluated the reasonableness of the fair value measurements (at both the deconsolidation date and the date significant influence was lost) by:
+Added: Testing the source information and mathematical accuracy of the calculations;
+Added: Assessing the appropriateness of the valuation methodologies (e.g., present value of the call option included in the Shareholder Agreement between the Company and T&T Power) and significant assumptions (e.g., discount rates or other unobservable inputs);
+Added: Developing independent ranges for key assumptions and comparing them to those selected by management;
+Added: Performing sensitivity analyses to assess the impact of changes in assumptions on the fair value conclusions.
+Added: We assessed the appropriateness of the subsequent accounting (equity method followed by fair value accounting) and the related disclosures, including the nature of the changes and the amounts recognized in the financial statements.

−Removed: Upon the terms and conditions in the Merger Agreement, each share:
−Removed: (i) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Viking (the “Viking Common Stock”) issued and outstanding, other than shares owned by Camber, was converted into the right to receive one share of common stock of Camber (the “Camber Common Stock”);

−Removed: Each share of New Camber Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into 890 shares of Camber Common Stock (subject to a beneficial ownership limitation preventing conversion into Camber Common Stock if the holder would be deemed to beneficially own more than 9.99 % of Camber Common Stock), is treated equally with Camber Common Stock with respect to dividends and liquidation, and only has voting rights with respect to voting:
−Removed: (a) on a proposal to increase or reduce Camber’s share capital;
−Removed: (b) on a resolution to approve the terms of a buy-back agreement;

−Removed: Each outstanding option or warrant to purchase Viking Common Stock (a “Viking Option”), to the extent unvested, automatically became fully vested and was converted automatically into an option or warrant (an “Adjusted Option”) to purchase, on substantially the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Viking Option, except that instead of being exercisable into Viking Common Stock, such Adjusted Option is exercisable into Camber Common Stock.
−Removed: Each outstanding promissory note issued by Viking that was convertible into Viking Common Stock (a “Viking Convertible Note”) was converted into a promissory note convertible into Camber Common Stock (an “Adjusted Convertible Note”) having substantially the same terms and conditions as applied to the corresponding Viking Convertible Note (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any extended post-termination conversion period that applies following consummation of the Merger), except that instead of being convertible into Viking Common Stock, such Adjusted Convertible Note is convertible into Camber Common Stock.
−Removed: In connection with the Merger, Camber issued approximately 49,290,152 shares of Camber Common Stock, which represented approximately 59.99 % of the outstanding Camber Common Stock after giving effect to such issuance.
−Removed: In addition, Camber reserved for issuance approximately 88,647,137 additional shares of Camber Common Stock in connection with the potential (1) conversion of the New Camber Series A Preferred Stock, (2) conversion of the New Camber Series H Preferred Stock, (3) exercise of the Adjusted Options and (4) conversion of the Adjusted Convertible Notes.
−Removed: For accounting purposes, the Merger was deemed a reverse acquisition.
−Removed: Consequently, Viking (the legal subsidiary) was treated as the acquiror of Camber (the legal parent).
