1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Ault Alliance, Inc., a Delaware
corporation which was then known as BitNile Holdings, Inc. (“BitNile” or the “Company”) was incorporated in September
2017. BitNile is a diversified holding company pursuing growth by acquiring undervalued businesses and disruptive technologies with a
global impact. Through its wholly- and majority-owned subsidiaries and strategic investments, the Company owns and operates a data center
at which it mines Bitcoin, and provides mission-critical products that support a diverse range of industries, including defense/aerospace,
industrial, automotive, medical/biopharma, karaoke audio equipment, hotel operations and textiles. In addition, the Company extends credit
to select entrepreneurial businesses through a licensed lending subsidiary. BitNile was founded by Milton “Todd” Ault, III,
its Executive Chairman and is led by Mr. Ault, William B. Horne, its Chief Executive Officer and Vice Chairman and Henry Nisser, its President
and General Counsel. Together, they constitute the Executive Committee, which manages the day-to-day operations of the Company. All major
investment and capital allocation decisions are made for the Company by Mr. Ault and the other members of the Executive Committee. The
Company has eight reportable segments:
· BitNile, Inc. (“BNI”) – cryptocurrency mining operations;
· Ault Alliance, Inc. (“Ault Alliance”) – commercial lending, activist investing, media,
and digital learning;
· Gresham Worldwide, Inc. (“GWW”) – defense solutions;
· TurnOnGreen, Inc. (“TurnOnGreen”) – commercial electronics solutions;
· The Singing Machine Company, Inc. (“SMC”) – karaoke audio equipment;
· Avalanche International Corp. (“Avalanche” or “AVLP”) – advanced textiles processing technology;
· Ault Global Real Estate Equities, Inc. (“AGREE”) – hotel operations and other commercial
real estate holdings; and
· Ault Disruptive Technologies Corporation (“Ault Disruptive”) – a special purpose acquisition
company (“SPAC”).
1 A. RESTATEMENT OF
PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
This Amendment amends the Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q of the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2022, that was originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
on August 22, 2022. This Amendment only corrects an error in classification with respect to changes in fair value of financial instruments
issued by a related party. The changes in fair value were erroneously recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and have been reclassified
to correct for the error within the statement of operations. The Company has restated its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations
and Comprehensive Loss, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity and Condensed Consolidated Statements
of Cash Flows to correct this misclassification. Further, this Amendment also includes certain limited modifications to reflect the correct
classification in disclosures in the Company’s Note 20 Net (Loss) Income per Share footnote in the Company’s Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements. Finally, the Company has modified its disclosures in Item 4
of Part I to reflect the identification of an additional material weakness.

As
a result, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss amounts
of “ Change in fair value of equity securities, related party ” and “ Net
unrealized gain on derivative securities of related party ” were adjusted pursuant to the schedules

United States of America (“GAAP”). The Company has made estimates and judgments affecting the amounts reported in the Company’s
condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially
from the Company’s estimates. The condensed consolidated financial information is unaudited but reflects all normal adjustments
that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. These condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on
April 15, 2022. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 was derived from the Company’s audited 2021 financial
statements contained in the above referenced Form 10-K. Results of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, are not necessarily indicative
of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2022.

Significant Accounting
Policies
Other than as noted
below, there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies previously disclosed in
the 2021 Annual Report.
Business Combination
The
Company allocates the purchase price of an acquired business to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based
upon their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. Any excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired
is recorded as goodwill. Acquired customer relations, technology, tradenames and know how are recognized at fair value. The purchase price
allocation process requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date with respect
to intangible assets. Direct transaction costs associated with the business combination are expensed as incurred. The allocation of the
consideration transferred in certain cases may be subject to revision based on the final determination of fair values during the measurement
period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date. The Company includes the results of operations of the business that it
has acquired in its consolidated results prospectively from the date of acquisition.
If
the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest
in the acquirer is re-measured to fair value at the acquisition date; any gains or losses arising from such re-measurement are recognized
in profit or loss.
Reclassifications
Certain
prior period amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the current-period financial statement presentation.
These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations.
Recent
Accounting Standards
In May 2021, the Financial
Accountings Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-04, “Earnings Per Share
(Topic 260), Debt-Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and
Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815- 40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of
Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options.” The guidance became effective for the Company on January 1, 2022. The Company
adopted the guidance on January 1, 2022, and has concluded the adoption did not have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued
ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” (“ASU No. 2016-13”) to improve information on credit
losses for financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. ASU 2016-13 replaces
the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. This guidance is effective for
the Company beginning on January 1, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard
will have a significant impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In August 2020, the FASB
issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in
Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)-Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own
Equity” (“ASU 2020-06”). The ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation
models required under current GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability
instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. ASU 2020-06 removes certain settlement conditions that are
required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for
it. ASU 2020-06 also simplifies the diluted net income per share calculation in certain areas. The amendments in ASU 2020-06 are
effective for smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including
interim periods within those fiscal years. Effective January 1, 2022, the Company early adopted ASU 2020-06 using the modified
retrospective approach, which resulted in no impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
F- 15
In October 2021, the FASB
issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805), Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with
Customers,” which requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured
by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, “Revenue from
Contracts with Customers.” The guidance will result in the acquirer recognizing contract assets and contract liabilities at the
same amounts recorded by the acquiree. The guidance should be applied prospectively to acquisitions occurring on or after the effective
date. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
Early adoption is permitted, including in interim periods, for any financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company is
currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In November 2021, the FASB
issued ASU 2021-10, “Government Assistance (Topic 832),” which requires annual disclosures that increase the transparency
of transactions involving government grants, including (1) the types of transactions, (2) the accounting for those transactions, and (3)
the effect of those transactions on an issuer’s financial statements. The amendments in this update are effective for financial
statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company expects that this guidance will not have a significant
impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company assesses the inputs
used to measure fair value using the three-tier hierarchy based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable
in the market. For investments where little or no public market exists, management’s determination of fair value is based on the
best available information which may incorporate management’s own assumptions and involves a significant degree of judgment, taking
into consideration various factors including earnings history, financial condition, recent sales prices of the issuer’s securities
and liquidity risks.
The
following table summarizes the changes in investments in other equity securities measured and carried at fair value on a recurring basis
with the use of significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the six months ended June 30, 2022:

See
Note 11 for the changes in investments in Ault & Company measured and carried at fair value on a recurring basis with the use of significant
unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.
Other
equity securities also include investments in entities that do not have a readily determinable fair value and do not report net asset
value per share. These investments are accounted for using a measurement alternative under which they are measured at cost and adjusted
for observable price changes and impairments. Observable price changes result from, among other things, equity transactions for the same
issuer executed during the reporting period, including subsequent equity offerings or other reported equity transactions related to the
same issuer. For these transactions to be considered observable price changes of the same issuer, the Company evaluates whether these
transactions have similar rights and obligations, including voting rights, distribution preferences, conversion rights, and other factors,
to the investments the Company holds. Any investments adjusted to their fair value by applying the measurement alternative are disclosed
as nonrecurring fair value measurements, including the level in the fair value hierarchy that was used. As of June 30, 2022 and December
31, 2021, investments in other equity securities valued using a measurement alternative of $ 37.7 million and $ 21.3 million, respectively,
are included in other equity securities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

8. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Overview of AVLP Acquisition
On June 1, 2022, the
Company converted the principal amount under the convertible promissory notes issued to it by AVLP and accrued but unpaid interest
into common stock of AVLP. The Company converted $ 20.0
million in principal and $ 5.9
million of accrued interest receivable at a conversion price of $0.50 per share and received 51,889,168 shares of common stock
increasing its common stock ownership of AVLP from less than 20 %
to approximately 92 %.
Prior to the conversion of
the convertible promissory notes, the Company accounted for its investment in AVLP as an investment in an unconsolidated entity under
the equity method of accounting. In connection with the conversion of the convertible promissory notes, the Company’s consolidated
financial statements now include all of the accounts of AVLP, and any significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated
in consolidation.
The
consideration transferred for the Company’s approximate 92% ownership interest in connection with this acquisition aggregated
$20.7 million, which represented the fair value of the Company’s holdings in AVLP immediately prior to conversion. The
carrying amount of the Company’s holdings in AVLP immediately prior to conversion was $23.4 million, resulting in a $2.7
million loss for the related remeasurement, which was recognized in interest and other income. The allocation of the total consideration
transferred to the assets acquired, including intangible assets and goodwill, and the liabilities assumed is preliminary and could
be revised as a result of additional information obtained due to the finalization of a third-party valuation report, leases and
related commitments, tax related matters and contingencies and certain assets and liabilities, including receivables and payables.
Amounts will be finalized within the measurement period, which will not exceed one year from the acquisition date. The goodwill
resulting from this acquisition is not tax deductible.

The Company consolidates the
results of AVLP on a one-month lag, therefore the statements of operations do not include results for AVLP for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2022.
Overview of SMC Acquisition
Beginning in June 2022, the Company, through its subsidiary Digital Power Lending, LLC (“DP Lending”), began
making open market purchases of SMC common stock. These purchases granted the Company a greater than 20% effective ownership on June
9, 2022, and subsequently, on June 15, 2022, the
Company owned more than 50% of the issued and outstanding common stock of SMC. The Company’s ownership of SMC stands at 51.6%
as of June 30, 2022.
As of June 15,
2022 (“Acquisition Date”), the purchase price of the common stock acquired totaled $ 7.4 million and on June 15,
2022 a $ 3.1 million gain was recognized in interest and other income for the remeasurement of the Company’s previously held
ownership interest to $ 10.5 million, based on the trading price of SMC common stock. The Company also recognized non-controlling
interest at fair value as of the Acquisition Date in the amount of $ 10.3 million.
The allocation of the total
consideration transferred to the assets acquired, including intangible assets and goodwill, and the liabilities assumed, is preliminary
and could be revised as a result of additional information obtained due to the finalization of a third-party valuation report, leases
and related commitments, tax related matters and contingencies and certain assets and liabilities, including receivables and payables.
Amounts will be finalized within the measurement period, which will not exceed one year from the Acquisition Date. The goodwill resulting
from this acquisition is not tax deductible.
The Company consolidates the
results of SMC on a one-quarter lag as it enables the Company to report its quarterly results independent from the timing of when SMC
reports its results, therefore the statements of operations do not include results for SMC for the three and six months ended June 30,
2022.

Michigan data center, where BNI conducts the Company’s Bitcoin mining operations.
Between June 15, 2022 and

Financial Instruments
Under authoritative guidance
used by the FASB on determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock, instruments that
do not have fixed settlement provisions are deemed to be derivative instruments. In prior years, the Company granted certain warrants
that resulted in these warrants accounted for as a financial instrument and being re-measured every reporting period with the change in
value reported in the statement of operations.
The financial
instruments were valued using a variety of pricing models with the following valuation assumptions:
Schedule of Financial Instrument

Contractually stipulated stock price
$ 2.50

Dividend yield

Risk-free interest rate

1.3 %
Per the terms of
the warrant agreements underlying the financial instruments, the value to the warrant holders is defined within the agreement based on
a stock price, contractual term, volatility factor and dividend rate as defined in the warrant agreement, and not indexed to the company’s
stock, resulting in the financial instrument accounting. The risk-free interest rate was based on rates established by the Federal Reserve
Bank.

an exercise price of $ 2.50 , subject to adjustment; and
· five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,942,508 shares of common stock (the “Class B Warrant
Shares”) at an exercise price of $ 2.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Class B Warrant Shares are deemed to be a derivative
instrument.
As of December 31, 2021, unamortized
debt discount on the Secured Promissory Notes related to the original issue discount and estimated fair value of the warrants totaled
$ 26.3 million.
During the three months ended

The AVLP convertible notes
payable are due and payable on August 22, 2025, with interest at 7% per annum. At the election of the holders, outstanding principal
and accrued but unpaid interest under the notes are convertible into shares of AVLP’s common stock at a conversion price equal
to either (i) if the aggregate market capital of AVLP on the date of conversion (the “Market Cap”) is $35 million or less,
at a 25% discount to the market price, or (ii) if the Market Cap is greater than $35 million, at a 25% discount to the market price,
provided that such discount shall be increased by dividing it by the quotient that shall be obtained by dividing $35 million by the Market
Cap at the time of conversion, provided, however, any increase in the discount to the market price shall not result in a discount that
is greater than a 75% discount (the “Conversion Price”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Conversion
Price be less than $0.35.

2021. In connection therewith, the Court also denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss without prejudice.
On June 2, 2021, the Company
and its subsidiary filed a motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint in its entirety as against the
Company, and the promissory estoppel claim as against the subsidiary.
On August 8, 2022, the Court
issued an Order denying the motion to dismiss, in its entirety.
The deadline for the Company
and its subsidiaries to file an Answer to the Amended Complaint is September 2, 2022.
Based on the Company’s
assessment of the facts underlying the claims, the uncertainty of litigation, and the preliminary stage of the case, the Company cannot
reasonably estimate the potential loss or range of loss that may result from this action. Notwithstanding, the Company has established
a reserve in the amount of the unpaid portion of the purchase agreement, which is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses. An
unfavorable outcome may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Ding Gu (a/k/a Frank Gu) and Xiaodan Wang
Litigation
On January 17, 2020, Ding
Gu (a/k/a Frank Gu) (“Gu”) and Xiaodan Wang (“Wang” and with “Gu” collectively, “Plaintiffs”),
filed a Complaint (the “Complaint”) in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York against the Company
and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Milton C. Ault, III, in an action captioned Ding Gu (a/k/a Frank Gu) and Xiaodan Wang
v. DPW Holdings, Inc. and Milton C. Ault III (a/k/a Milton Todd Ault III a/k/a Todd Ault) , Index No. 650438/2020.
The Complaint asserts causes
of action for declaratory judgment, specific performance, breach of contract, conversion, attorneys’ fees, permanent injunction,
enforcement of Guaranty, unjust enrichment, money had and received, and fraud arising from: (i) a series of transactions entered into
between Gu and the Company, as well as Gu and Ault, in or about May 2019; and (ii) a term sheet entered into between Plaintiffs and the
Company, in or about July 2019. The Complaint seeks, among other things, monetary damages in excess of $ 1.1 million, plus a decree of
specific performance directing the Company to deliver unrestricted shares of common stock to Gu, plus attorneys’ fees and costs.
The Company intends to vigorously
defend against the claims asserted against it in this action.
On May 4, 2020, the Company
and Ault jointly filed a motion to dismiss the Complaint in its entirety, with prejudice.
On July 28, 2021, the Court
conducted oral argument in connection with the motion to dismiss. During the oral argument, the Court informed the parties that the Court
was dismissing the fraud claim, in its entirety, and provided Plaintiffs an opportunity to amend their fraud claim within sixty days of
the date of the oral argument. The Court reserved decision on the other causes of action.
On December 14, 2021, the
Court entered a decision and order in connection with the motion to dismiss whereby the Court dismissed Plaintiff’s causes of action
for specific performance, conversion, permanent injunction, and reiterated its prior determination that the fraud claim was also dismissed.
The Court denied the motion to dismiss in connection with the other causes of action asserted in the complaint.
On January 26, 2022, the Company
and Mr. Ault filed an answer to the complaint and asserted numerous affirmative defenses.
Based on the Company’s
assessment of the facts underlying the above claims, the uncertainty of litigation, and the preliminary stage of the case, the Company
cannot reasonably estimate the potential loss or range of loss that may result from this action. An unfavorable outcome may have a material
adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Subpoena
The Company and certain affiliates
and related parties have received several subpoenas from the SEC for the production of documents and testimony. The Company is fully cooperating
with this non-public, fact-finding inquiry and management believes that the Company has operated its business in compliance with all applicable
laws. The subpoenas expressly provide that the inquiry is not to be construed as an indication by the SEC or its staff that any violations
of the federal securities laws have occurred, nor should they be considered a reflection upon any person, entity or security. However,
there can be no assurance as to the outcome of this matter.
F- 29
Other Litigation Matters
The Company is involved in
litigation arising from other matters in the ordinary course of business. The Company is regularly subject to claims, suits, regulatory
and government investigations, and other proceedings involving labor and employment, commercial disputes, and other matters. Such claims,
suits, regulatory and government investigations, and other proceedings could result in fines, civil penalties, or other adverse consequences.
Certain of these outstanding
matters include speculative, substantial or indeterminate monetary amounts. The Company records a liability when it believes that it is
probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If the Company determines that a loss is reasonably
possible and the loss or range of loss can be estimated, the Company discloses the reasonably possible loss. The Company evaluates developments
in its legal matters that could affect the amount of liability that has been previously accrued, and the matters and related reasonably
possible losses disclosed, and makes adjustments as appropriate. Significant judgment is required to determine both likelihood of there
being and the estimated amount of a loss related to such matters.
With respect to the Company’s
other outstanding matters, based on the Company’s current knowledge, the Company believes that the amount or range of reasonably
possible loss will not, either individually or in aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, consolidated
financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, the outcome of such matters is inherently unpredictable and subject
to significant uncertainties.
