NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2024 AND 2023 (Unaudited) 1. BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Range Impact, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 29, 2007. Originally founded in 2007 as Legend Mining Inc., the Company began operations as a mineral extraction exploration business. In 2011, the Company changed its name to Stevia First Corp and pursued a new strategy focused on developing stevia-based additives for the food and beverage industry. In 2015, the Company changed its name to Vitality Biopharma, Inc. and pursued a new strategy focused on developing cannabinoid-based prodrugs anticipated to treat inflammatory conditions of the gastrointestinal tract. In October 2021, the Company changed its name to Malachite Innovations, Inc. and formed two wholly-owned operating subsidiaries: (i) Graphium Biosciences, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Graphium”), into which the Company contributed all of its drug development assets; and (ii) Daedalus Ecosciences, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Daedalus”), which was formed to serve as a holding company for the Company’s future impact investing businesses. In May 2022, Daedalus acquired Range Environmental Resources, Inc., a West Virginia corporation (“Range Environmental”) and Range Natural Resources, Inc., a West Virginia corporation (“Range Natural” and together with Range Environmental, the “Range Reclamation Entities”). The Range Reclamation Entities provide land reclamation, water restoration and environmental consulting services to mining and non-mining customers throughout the Appalachian region with the goal of returning land to pre-mining conditions or repurposing the land for natural, commercial, agricultural or recreational use. The Range Reclamation Entities’ water restoration services seek to improve the water quality in rivers, streams and discharges through novel and innovative treatment applications to help customers meet their various regulatory standards and requirements. The Range Reclamation Entities also provide environmental consulting services to customers typically in connection with land reclamation and water restoration projects and as an additional value-add service, sells water treatment chemicals manufactured by third parties to its customers. Range Natural also provides resource mining services for customers incidental to the reclamation and repurposing of mine sites. In December 2022, Daedalus was merged into the Company. In August 2023, the Company acquired Collins Building & Contracting, Inc., a West Virginia corporation (“Collins Building”), an environmental services business primarily focusing on the reclamation of abandoned mine land sites in West Virginia, as described in more detail in Note 2. In December 2023, the Company changed its name to Range Impact, Inc., and reorganized into five operating business segments: (i) Range Reclaim; (ii) Range Water; (iii) Range Security; (iv) Range Land; and (v) Drug Development. In January 2024, the Company added Range Minerals as its sixth operating business segment. Range Minerals was previously reported within the Range Reclaim operating business segment. The Drug Development segment was also renamed Graphium Biosciences. 8 Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: CLV Azurite Land LLC, Collins Building & Contracting, Inc., Graphium Biosciences, Inc., Range Environmental Resources, Inc., Range Land, LLC, Range Minerals, LLC, Range Natural Resources, Inc., Range Reclaim, LLC, Range Security, LLC, Range Security Resources, LLC, Range Water, LLC, Terra Preta, LLC, Aether Credit Ventures, Inc. (dissolved in November 2023), Pristine Stream Ventures, Inc. (dissolved in November 2023), NextGen AgriTech, Inc. (dissolved in November 2023), and Daedalus Ecosciences, Inc. (merged into Range Impact, Inc. in December 2022), and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Business Combinations Business combinations are accounted for using the purchase method of accounting under ASC 805, “Business Combinations.” This method requires the Company to record assets and liabilities of the businesses acquired at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Any excess of the cost of the acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Any excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired over the cost of the acquisition is accounted for as a bargain purchase gain. Determining the fair value requires management to make estimates and assumptions including discount rates, rates of return on assets, and long-term sales growth rates. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The core principle of the ASC 606 revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue by analyzing the following five steps: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company primarily invoices customers and recognizes revenue on a periodic basis for equipment and labor hours provided to a customer on a particular job based on an agreed-upon hourly rate sheet or a fixed amount for a project. The Company also invoices customers and recognizes revenue for equipment mobilization fees and materials and supplies required to complete a project. The Company invoices for the sales of chemicals, stone and other products and recognizes revenue when the products are delivered to the customer’s designated site or when control of these products is transferred to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those products. Sales taxes and other taxes that the Company collects concurrent with revenue producing activities are excluded from revenue. Costs for equipment, labor and chemicals are generally expensed as incurred since the projects are generally short-term and not subject to a contract. The Company also invoices customers for the provision of environmental security services at an agreed-upon hourly rate for each project. All revenue is recognized at a point in time. The Company recognizes revenue on reclamation contracts over time as performance obligations are satisfied due to the continuous transfer of control to the customer. The Company’s contracts are generally accounted for as a single performance obligation since the Company is providing a significant service of integrating components into a single project. The Company recognizes revenue using a cost-based input method by which actual costs incurred relative to total estimated contract costs determine, as a percentage, progress toward contract completion. This percentage is applied to the contract price to determine the amount of revenue to recognize. The Company believes the cost-based input method is the most faithful depiction of performance because it directly measures the value of the services transferred to the customer. Contract Estimates Due to the nature of the Company’s performance obligations, the estimation of total revenue and cost at completion is subject to many variables and requires significant judgment. Since a significant change in one or more of these variables could affect the profitability of contracts, the Company reviews and updates contract-related estimates regularly through a review process in which the Company reviews the progress and execution of performance obligations and the estimated cost at completion. The Company recognizes adjustments in estimated profit on contracts under the cumulative catch-up method. Under this method, the impact of the adjustment on profit recorded to date is recognized in the period the adjustment is identified. Revenue and profit in future periods of contract performance is recognized using the adjusted estimate. If at any time the estimate of contract profitability indicates an anticipated loss on the contract, a provision for the entire loss is recognized in the period it is identified. Contract Modifications Contract modifications can occur during the performance of the Company’s contracts. Contracts may be modified to account for changes in contract specifications or requirements. In most instances, contract modifications are for goods or services that are not distinct, and, therefore, are accounted for as part of the existing contract. Cost and Expense Recognition Contract costs include all direct labor, materials, equipment mobilization, subcontractor, and equipment costs, and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, tools and supplies. Costs are recognized as incurred. The Company recognizes revenue from contracts for financial reporting purposes over time. Progress toward completion of the Company’s contracts is measured by the percentage of cost incurred to date compared to estimated total costs for each contract. This method is used because management considers total cost to be the best available measure of progress on contracts. Because of inherent uncertainties in estimating costs, it is at least reasonably possible that the estimates used will change significantly over the course of the contract’s performance. 9 Revenue earned over time compared to a point in time is as follows for the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. SCHEDULE OF REVENUE EARNED OVERTIME COMPARED TO A POINT IN TIME Quarter Ended March 31, 2024 Quarter Ended March 31, 2023 Earned over time $ 870,494 $ - Point in time 3,039,399 3,014,887 Total revenue 3,909,893 3,014,887 Cost of Services Contract costs include all direct labor, materials, subcontractor, and equipment costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, tools and supplies. For construction contracts, costs are generally recognized as incurred. Under certain circumstances, costs incurred in the period related to future activity on contracts may be capitalized. Costs incurred that do not contribute to satisfying performance obligations are excluded from the cost input calculation for revenue recognition. Excluded costs include both uninstalled materials and abnormal costs. Abnormal costs comprise wasted materials, wasted or rework labor and other resources to fulfill a contract that were not reflected in the price of the contract. A limited allowance for material overages and labor inefficiencies is typically included in our contract costs estimates (and by extension, in the contract price). Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. From time to time, the Company’s cash account balances exceed the balances covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company has never suffered a loss due to such excess balances. Accounts Receivable Included as a component of accounts receivable are contract receivables that represent the Company’s unconditional right, subject only to the passage of time, to receive consideration arising from performance obligations under reclamation contracts with customers. Billed contract receivables have been invoiced to customers based on contracted amounts. Contract receivables were $ 504,050 at March 31, 2024 and $ 2,100,255 as of December 31, 2023. Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from the balances outstanding as of March 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023 in the consolidated balance sheets. Based on management’s assessment, it has concluded that losses on balances outstanding as of those dates will be immaterial and therefore, no allowances were recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2024 or the three months ended March 31, 2023. Accounts receivable, including contract receivables, were $ 6,003,777 and $ 7,185,411 at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. No bad debt expense was accrued in either the three months ended March 31, 2024 or the three months ended March 31, 2023 and there is no allowance for doubtful accounts as of March 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023. Contract Assets Billing practices are governed by the contract terms of each project based upon costs incurred, achievement of milestones or predetermined schedules. Billings do not necessarily correlate with revenue recognized over time using the percentage-of-completion method. Contract assets include unbilled amounts typically resulting from revenue under long-term contracts when the percentage-of-completion method of revenue recognition is utilized, and revenue recognition exceeds the amount billed to the customer. The Company’s contract assets are reported on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. The Company classifies contract assets as current or noncurrent based on whether the revenue is expected to be recognized sooner or later than one year from the balance sheet date. Details of contract assets arising from reclamation contracts in process as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are as follows: SCHEDULE OF CONTRACT ASSETS March 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 Costs incurred on contracts in progress $ 920,618 $ 425,634 Estimated earnings 716,038 340,528 Revenue earned on contracts in progress 1,636,656 766,162 Less: Billings to date ( 1,215,558 ) ( 518,852 ) Total contract assets $ 421,098 $ 247,310 10 March 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on contracts in progress $ 626,425 $ 247,310 Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on contracts in progress ( 205,327 ) - Net contract assets $ 421,098 $ 247,310 Property & Equipment Property and equipment is carried at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to cost of services. Additions and betterments are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of equipment sold or otherwise disposed of are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the current year’s earnings. SCHEDULE OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT March 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 Equipment $ 13,835,929 $ 13,835,929 Land 1,563,797 1,563,797 Buildings 199,500 199,500 Property and equipment, gross 199,500 199,500 Accumulated depreciation ( 2,935,759 ) ( 2,297,324 ) Net book value 12,663,467 13,301,902 Depreciation expense $ 638,435 $ 1,781,573 The Company provides for depreciation of its buildings, property and equipment using the straight-line method for both financial reporting and federal income tax purposes over the estimated six -year useful lives of the assets. The Company assesses the recoverability of its property and equipment by determining whether the depreciation of the assets over their remaining lives can be recovered through projected future cash flows generated by the assets. There were no assets identified for impairment. Land Land is carried at cost. The Company assesses the recoverability of its land by determining whether the cost of the land can be recovered through projected future cash flows generated by the land. No land was identified for impairment. Delivery Costs Delivery costs are classified as cost of sales. Goodwill U.S. GAAP requires that goodwill be tested for impairment annually and more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not (i.e., a likelihood greater than 50%) that the reporting unit is impaired. During interim periods, ASC 350 requires companies to focus on those events and circumstances that affect the significant inputs used to determine the fair value of the reporting unit to determine whether an interim quantitative impairment test is required. The Company performed its quarterly impairment test for goodwill on March 31, 2024. The Company first assessed certain qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, and whether it is therefore necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. The qualitative analysis indicated that a quantitative impairment test was not necessary . Income Taxes The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respective income tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as income (loss) in the period that includes the enactment date. Leases The Company determines whether a contract is, or contains, a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement based upon the estimated present value of unpaid lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at lease commencement in determining the present value of unpaid lease payments. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had no material lease commitments for longer than one year. Stock-Based Compensation The Company periodically issues stock options and restricted stock awards to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services. The Company accounts for such grants issued and vesting based on ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation whereby the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized for employees as compensation expense on the straight-line basis over the vesting period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as if the Company had paid cash for the services. The Company recognizes the fair value of stock-based compensation within its Consolidated Statements of Operations with classification depending on the nature of the services rendered. 11 The fair value of the Company’s stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the stock options or restricted stock, and future dividends. Compensation expense is recorded based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model and based on actual experience. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model could materially affect compensation expense recorded in future periods. Basic and Diluted Income (Loss) Per Share Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Shares of restricted stock are included in the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding from the time they vest. Diluted income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Diluted income (loss) per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. The following potentially dilutive shares were excluded from the shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive: SCHEDULE OF ANTI-DILUTIVE SECURITIES EXCLUDED FROM COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE March 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 Options 11,385,877 11,392,544 Warrants 3,313,335 3,313,335 Total 14,699,212 14,705,879 Anti-dilutive loss per share 14,699,212 14,705,879 Patents and Patent Application Costs Although the Company believes that its patents and underlying technology have continuing value, the amount of future benefits to be derived from the patents is uncertain. Accordingly, patent costs are expensed as incurred. Research and Development Research and development costs consist primarily of fees paid to consultants and outside service providers, patent fees and costs, and other expenses relating to the acquisition, design, development and testing of the Company’s treatments and product candidates. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Fair Value of Financial Instruments FASB ASC 825, “Financial Instruments” requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments. Financial instruments held by the Company include, among others, accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for assets and liabilities qualifying as financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair value. Segments As of March 31, 2024, the Company has six operating business segments: (i) Range Reclaim; (ii) Range Minerals; (iii) Range Water; (iv) Range Security; (v) Range Land’ and (vi) Graphium Biosciences. Previously, beginning in October 2021, the Company began operating under two segments: (A) the Drug Development segment, which reports the operating results of the Company’s broad portfolio of glycosylated cannabinoid prodrugs operating under the name Graphium Biosciences, and (B) the Range Reclaim segment, which provides land reclamation, water restoration and incidental mining to mining and non-mining customers throughout Appalachia. The Range Water, Range Security and Range Land business segments began operations in 2023. Beginning in January 2024, Range Minerals, which was previously reported within the Range Reclaim operating business segment, was separately reported as its own operating business segment focused on mining and related reclamation activities, and the Drug Development segment was renamed Graphium Biosciences. 12 In accordance with the “Segment Reporting” Topic of the ASC 280, the Company’s chief operating decision-maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Existing guidance, which is based on a management approach to segment reporting, establishes requirements to report selected segment information quarterly and to report annually entity-wide disclosures about products and services, major customers, and the countries in which the entity holds material assets and reports revenue. All material operating units qualify for aggregation under “Segment Reporting” due to their similar customer base and similarities in: economic characteristics; nature of products and services; and procurement, manufacturing, and distribution processes. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” This ASU enhances reportable segment disclosures on both an annual and interim basis primarily in regards to the disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM) and included within the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss. In addition, the ASU requires disclosure, by segment, of other items included in the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss, including qualitative information describing the composition, nature and type of each item. The ASU also expands disclosure requirements related to the CODM, including how the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss are used to assess segment performance and allocate resources, and the method used to allocate overhead for significant segment expenses. All current required annual segment reporting disclosures under Topic 280 are now effective for interim periods. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” This ASU enhances income tax disclosures by providing information to better assess how an entity’s operations, related tax risks, tax planning and operational opportunities affect its tax rate and prospects for future cash flows. This ASU requires additional disclosures to the annual effective tax rate reconciliation including specific categories and further disaggregated reconciling items that meet the quantitative threshold. Additionally, the ASU requires disclosures relating to income tax expense and payments made to federal, state, local and foreign jurisdictions. This ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU. 2.

SEGMENT INFORMATION ASC 280, “Segment Reporting” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organizational structure as well as information about services, categories, business segments and major customers in financial statements. The Company has six reportable segments that are based on the following business units: (i) Range Reclaim; (ii) Range Minerals; (iii) Range Water’ (iv) Range Security; (v) Range Land; and (vi) Graphium Biosciences. In accordance with the “Segment Reporting” Topic of the ASC, the Company’s chief operating decision-maker has been identified as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Existing guidance, which is based on a management approach to segment reporting, establishes requirements to report selected segment information quarterly and to report annually entity-wide disclosures about products and services, major customers and the countries in which the entity holds material assets and reports revenue. All material operating units qualify for aggregation under “Segment Reporting” due to their similar customer base and similarities in (i) economic characteristics, (ii) nature of products and services, and (iii) procurement, manufacturing and distribution processes. The six reportable segments that result from applying the aggregation criteria are as follows: ● Range Reclaim – land reclamation, water restoration and land repurposing ● Range Minerals – mining and reclamation activities ● Range Water – biochar product development and water solutions business ● Range Security – security services on mine land being reclaimed and repurposed for non-fossil fuel uses ● Range Land – mine land being acquired, reclaimed and repurposed for non-fossil fuel uses ● Graphium Biosciences – glycosylated cannabinoid drug development program The Company had no inter-segment sales for the periods presented. 16 Summarized financial information concerning the Company’s reportable segments is shown as below: SCHEDULE OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF REPORTABLE SEGMENT By Categories Range Reclaim Range Minerals Range Water Range Security Range Land Graphium Biosciences Corporate Total For the three months ended March 31, 2024 Range Reclaim Range Minerals Range Water Range Security Range Land Graphium Biosciences Corporate Total Sales $ 1,505,983 $ 1,982,115 $ - 421,795 $ - $ - $ - $ 3,909,893 Gross profit ( 579,683 ) 799,503 - 261,725 - - - 481,545 Net income (loss) ( 1,046,372 ) 699,267 ( 33,582 ) 232,240 - ( 131,640 ) ( 471,062 ) ( 751,149 ) Total assets 13,090,077 5,487,595 13,219 199,184 1,009,866 8,753 1,004,826 20,813,520 Depreciation 634,905 - 640 2,890 - - - 638,435 Interest expense 92,978 - - - - - 82,280 175,258 Tax expense - - - - - - - Capital expenditures for long-lived assets $ - $ - $ - - $ - $ - $ - $ - Range Reclaim Range Water Range Security Range Land Graphium Biosciences Corporate Total For the three months ended March 31, 2023 Range Reclaim Range Water Range Security Range Land Graphium Biosciences Corporate Total Sales $ 2,988,487 $ - $ 26,400 $ - $ - $ - $ 3,014,887 Gross profit 638,579 - 10,423 - - - 649,002 Net income (loss) 186,643 ( 19,164 ) ( 17,105 ) - ( 106,177 ) ( 271,057 ) ( 226,860 ) Total assets 8,550,781 15,564 77,962 - 8,584 8,412 8,661,303 Depreciation 352,756 - 1,428 - - - 354,184 Interest expense 42,750 - - - - 887 43,637 Tax expense - - - - - - - Capital expenditures for long-lived assets $ 678,202 $ 15,350 $ 52,674 $ - $ - $ - $ 746,226 12.

Company Overview Range is a public company dedicated to improving the health and wellness of people and the planet through a novel and innovative approach to impact investing. We own and operate several complementary operating businesses focused on developing long-term solutions to environmental, social, and health challenges, with a particular focus on acquiring, reclaiming and repurposing mine sites and other undervalued land in economically disadvantaged communities throughout Appalachia. Range takes an opportunistic approach to impact investing by leveraging its competitive advantages and looking at solving old problems in new ways. Range seeks to thoughtfully allocate its capital into strategic opportunities that are expected to make a positive impact on the people-planet ecosystem and generate strong investment returns for its shareholders. 18 Our corporate headquarters is located in Cleveland, Ohio, with additional office locations in Flatwoods, West Virginia, Fola, West Virginia and Rocklin, California. As of May 15, 2024, we employed 43 full-time employees. In addition, we have, from time to time, engaged various consultants and professional service firms to provide us with flexible and experienced resources to advance our corporate objectives in order to maintain a cost-effective overhead structure. We strive to instill a corporate culture of honesty, integrity and respect while advancing our mission of doing well by doing good. Impact Investing Strategy Our impact investing strategy aims to improve the health and wellness of people and the planet, while also generating long-term sustainable financial returns for our shareholders. We believe that doing well and doing good are not mutually exclusive, and that an impact investing strategy can balance the environmental, social and economic needs of people and the planet while also generating attractive risk-adjusted financial returns for shareholders. Our impact investing strategy provides an opportunity for our dedicated team to address pressing environmental, social and economic challenges, such as air and water pollution, educational inequality and economic disparity, and climate change, through the development of technology-based solutions. By actively directing investment capital towards businesses that are working to create positive environmental, social and economic outcomes, we believe that our impact investing strategy can contribute to an improved people-planet ecosystem and a healthier and happier way of life. We have a particular interest in providing environmental and social solutions in economically-disadvantaged regions of the United States. Initially, the Company is targeting the Appalachian region, which is home to communities with some of the most disadvantaged income, education and employment demographics in the United States. Our ambitious strategy is to allocate investment capital and build operating businesses that provide positive environmental and social impact in the disadvantaged coal communities of Appalachia to maximize the good we can do for people and the planet. Operating Business Segments Our six operating business segments are: (i) Range Reclaim; (ii) Range Minerals; (iii) Range Water; (iv) Range Security; (v) Range Land; and (vi) Graphium Biosciences. Range Reclaim In May 2022, the Company acquired Range Environmental Resources, Inc., a West Virginia corporation (“Range Environmental”). Range Environmental provides land reclamation, water restoration and environmental consulting services to mining and non-mining customers throughout the Appalachian region with the goal of returning land to pre-mining conditions or repurposing the land for natural, commercial, agricultural or recreational use. Range Environmental’s water restoration services seek to improve the water quality of rivers, streams and discharges through novel and innovative treatment applications to help customers meet their various regulatory standards and requirements. Range Environmental also provides environmental consulting services to customers, typically in connection with land reclamation and water restoration projects, and, as an additional value-add service, sells water treatment chemicals manufactured by third parties to its customers. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (“EIA”), the United States had 551 coal mines in 2020, comprised of 370 active mines, 141 idled or closed mines, and 40 new or activated mines. Approximately 82% of those coal mines were located in Appalachia (which comprises the Appalachian Mountains and is commonly known as the cultural region in the Eastern United States stretching from the southern part of New York to the northern parts of Alabama and Georgia). According to the EIA, there were approximately three times as many coal mines in the United States in 2008 compared to 2020 with approximately 89% located in Appalachia. The precipitous decline in the number of operating coal mines since 2008 is due to various supply, demand and regulatory factors, including a reduction in demand for coal as a source of electricity due to the increased use of natural gas and renewable energy, an increase in coal production costs due to inflation, the dearth of cost-effective locations remaining for mining, and a more stringent and costly regulatory environment, all of which have resulted in an increasingly difficult market for coal producers. In 2000, coal was responsible for 1,966 billion kWh of electricity generation, which represented 52% of the total electricity generation in the United States. By contrast, in 2022, coal was responsible for only 828 billion kWh of electricity generation, which represented 20% of the total electricity generation in the United States. According to the EIA, 23% of the 200,568 megawatts of coal-fired capacity currently operating in the United States is scheduled to be retired by the end of 2029 due to the high cost of operations, continued competition from natural gas and renewable energy resources, and sustainable initiatives of energy producers. However, the reclamation of closed and inactive mine sites has not kept pace with the increase in closed and idled mine sites, thus creating a substantial backlog of reclamation work that needs to be completed on former mine sites. According to the U.S. Office of Surfacing Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (“OSMRE”), there are approximately 50,000 high-priority abandoned mine land locations in the United States resulting from legacy coal mining operations that failed to adequately reclaim the land and waterways back to their natural state. Additionally, there are tens of thousands of active mine sites in the United States that require contemporaneous reclamation of land and waterways during the active mining process, and an estimated equally large number of idled mine locations that also require significant land reclamation and water restoration services. 19 Under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977 (“SMRCA”), OSMRE was established for two basic purposes: (i) to ensure coal mines in the United States operate in a manner that protects citizens and the environment during mining operations and to restore the land to beneficial use following mining; and (ii) to implement an Abandoned Mine Land (“AML”) reclamation program to address the hazards and environmental degradation resulting from two centuries of coal mining activities that occurred before SMRCA was passed in 1977. The AML reclamation program is funded through fees levied against coal producers based on tons of coal produced. As of September 2020, the AML reclamation fund had collected a total of $11.7 billion in coal mining fees over the life of the program, with $9.5 billion (81%) appropriated and distributed in accordance with SMCRA, and $2.2 billion (19%) unappropriated and available for future disbursement. In November 2021, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act was enacted, which, among other things, authorized $11.3 billion in new funding to be appropriated for deposit into the AML reclamation fund. Importantly, the AML reclamation fund is only available to help fund the reclamation of mines abandoned before SMCRA was enacted in 1977; therefore, all mines abandoned after the year 1977 cannot access funding from the AML reclamation fund and must obtain funding from other sources. While much of the funding for this reclamation work comes from the federal government, each state in Appalachia has a Department of Environmental Protection or an equivalent agency (“DEP”) that oversees coal mining permitting, operations, and reclamation. Under DEP rules and regulations, coal mining companies are required to develop a mining and reclamation plan that is approved by the applicable state agency, obtain a mining permit from the state, and secure a reclamation surety bond from a qualified third-party insurance company or provide a comparable financial guarantee. The reclamation surety bond provides the state with financial assurances that land reclamation and waterway restoration will be performed in accordance with the original reclamation plan once mining is complete if the coal mining company, as primary obligor, fails to perform. Therefore, there are at least three groups who may need land reclamation, water restoration and environmental auditing services: (i) mining companies when permits are active and reclamation bonds are not in default; (ii) surety bond insurers when reclamation bonds are in default; and (iii) states through their AML reclamation funds for mine lands abandoned before 1977 and for mine lands with defaulted coal mining companies and surety bond insurers after 1977. Range Environmental is planning for continued growth in its land reclamation, water restoration and consulting businesses by expanding its market share with existing coal mining customers and reclamation bond insurers, adding new coal mining and non-coal mining customers, and collaborating with the Company’s other operating businesses to generate incremental sales opportunities. We will seek to add additional people, equipment and technologies to support our ambitious growth goals to ensure we successfully execute our value creation plans for the Company and our shareholders. In August 2023, the Company acquired Collins Building & Contracting, Inc. (“Collins Building”), a West Virginia-based environmental services business focused on performing reclamation services on abandoned mine lands throughout West Virginia. Collins Building, along with Range Environmental, are classified within the Range Reclaim operating business segment. Range Minerals In May 2022, the Company acquired Range Natural Resources, Inc., a West Virginia corporation (“Range Natural”). Range Natural provides mining and reclamation services through subcontractors with oversight by the Company’s management team. Currently, Range Natural is mining and reclaiming several surface mines at the Fola Mine Complex in Fola, West Virginia (“Fola Mine”). The Company anticipates increasing mining and reclamation activity at the Fola Mine, and therefore, in January 2024, the Company separated Range Natural’s results from the “Range Reclaim” reporting segment and has included Range Natural’s results in a new “Range Minerals” reporting segment. The Company believes reporting the results of Range Minerals separately from Range Reclaim will provide better insight and transparency into the overall operational performance of both operating business segments. Range Water Terra Preta, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“Terra Preta”), is a biochar product development and environmental solutions business started by the Company in December 2022. Terra Preta is developing a novel and innovative combination of biochar, proprietary materials and structural designs intended to create several first-of-its-kind agricultural and water filtration products and solutions. 20 Biochar is a solid, lightweight carbon-rich material produced by the thermal decomposition of organic material (such as cellulosic feedstock, including wood and plants) using a chemical-conversion process known as pyrolysis. Carbonization pyrolysis is a chemical degradation process that heats organic materials to produce carbon-rich biochar, liquid bio-oils, and syngas products. Since organic material is thermally decomposed without oxygen during the pyrolysis process, combustion does not occur, so the process allows for the permanent capture of carbon in the biochar end-product and eliminates the release of climate-damaging carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. The specific yield of biochar during the carbonization pyrolysis process depends on several variables such as temperature, heating time and heating rate. Lower temperatures, longer heating times and lower heating rates typically yield more biochar and less bio-oil and syngas. Terra Preta has been launched to build a full-cycle, carbon-negative business that reduces greenhouse gases from the atmosphere, passively filters contaminated water without the use of harsh chemicals, and provides a fortified, nutrient-rich soil amendment to improve the growth of agricultural products. Greenhouse gases, comprised of carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and fluorinated gases, are gases that trap heat in the atmosphere, and are generally believed to result in warmer temperatures and climate change, including changing weather patterns, rising sea levels, and more extreme weather events. Carbon dioxide enters the atmosphere through, among other things, the burning of fossil fuels, solid waste and other biomass materials, and is removed from the atmosphere when absorbed by plants during the photosynthesis process. Terra Preta is in discussions with a large affiliated landowner to enter into a long-term lease or purchase of at least 100 acres of former mine land in West Virginia for the planting, growth and harvesting of crops to serve as the primary feedstock for our biochar production operations. The newly planted crops would then act as a “carbon sink”, drawing substantial amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into the plants through the photosynthesis process. When the plants are harvested, biochar is produced through the carbonization pyrolysis process and the captured carbon dioxide is permanently preserved as carbon in the biochar product for use in water treatment and agricultural end uses. Pursuant to rules adopted under the Clean Water Act of 1972 (“Clean Water Act”), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) has implemented various pollution control programs such as wastewater standards for industry and recommendations for pollutants in surface waters. The Clean Water Act prohibits any party from discharging pollutants into a water of the United States unless they have a permit issued under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (“NPDES”), which contains limits on what a party can discharge and establishes monitoring and reporting requirements. On mining sites, coal operators are required to sample and test their water discharges on a regular basis to ensure compliance with the Clean Water Act and applicable NPDES permits. Currently, most mining operators treat non-compliant water with temporary holding ponds and expensive chemicals such as pH adjusters, coagulants and flocculants that require constant reapplication to ensure compliance. Terra Preta will focus on developing a proprietary, biochar-based passive treatment system that treats non-compliant mine site discharges to ensure compliance with the Clean Water Act and NPDES permits without the need for holding ponds or expensive chemicals. Sustainable agriculture plays a critical role in the stability, growth, and diversification of our future food supply chain and the growth of plants intended to serve as a carbon sink to reduce greenhouse gases. High-quality soil, a key condition for sustainable agriculture, requires organic matter, microorganisms, nutrients, and optimal compaction. Subsoils with a sufficient number of air-filled pores have little restriction to drainage and aeration, and typically are able to decompose and cycle organic matter and nutrients more efficiently. Alternatively, soil with poor aeration leads to the build-up of carbon dioxide, reduces the ability of plants to absorb water and nutrients, and leads to increased plant stress and root disease. To help address the ill effects of soil compaction, Terra Preta is developing a proprietary, fortified biochar soil amendment that provides unique soil structuring characteristics that will allow plants to grow strong roots that optimize the absorption of water and nutrients, thereby reducing root stress and disease. 21 In December 2022, Terra Preta filed trademarks for biochar goods and services related to agricultural and water treatment applications. In March 2023, Terra Preta filed provisional patents related to novel and innovative agricultural and water treatment solutions and designs. Additionally, in March 2023, Terra Preta purchased two pyrolysis ovens with the capacity to produce one ton of biochar per day to advance our research and development activities. We are currently evaluating the purchase of a large continuous-process pyrolysis oven to increase the scale of our biochar production to commercial levels. Range Security Range Security Resources, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“Range Security”), is an environmental security services business started by the Company in November 2022. Range Security is focused on providing eco-friendly, technology-driven security services to active and former mine sites, with a particular focus on locations transitioning from coal mining to next generation industries and uses. Range Security is intended to serve as a complementary business to the Range Reclaim and Range Minerals entities. Mine sites in the Appalachian region frequently comprise thousands of acres of natural habitat with valuable infrastructure and operating assets disbursed across large tracts of land. However, many of these mine sites lack adequate broadband access or cellular service, and therefore traditional technology-based security solutions are not available. Also, due to the large land areas and often challenging access roads and mountainous terrain, consistent visual confirmation of the safety and security of high value assets is problematic, and unnecessary amounts of carbon dioxide are emitted from heavy-duty trucks used to perform frequent visual security checks. Furthermore, due to the remoteness and lack of technological options, most security services in the market fail to provide an independent verification of the security status of a mine site and confirmation of visual security checks, resulting in a customer’s uncertainty regarding the actual security services being provided. Valuable assets commonly found on mine sites requiring high-levels of security services include office buildings, coal operation facilities such as preparation plants and loadout facilities, power stations and electrical lines, vehicles and heavy equipment, supplies and chemicals, and spare parts and components. These high-value assets are frequently the target of theft since all or parts of these assets can be easily removed from the mine site and sold for cash. Unfortunately, the actual damage to the operation resulting from this type of destructive theft is frequently many times the market value of the stolen item, primarily due to the losses resulting from the down-time of operations, the cost of repairs and replacement components, and the long-term damage to critical infrastructure that can be repurposed and used to attract next generation industries once the mining is complete. In March 2023, Range Security was engaged by its first customer for environmental security services covering a 13,000-acre coal mine site in West Virginia. As of May 15, 2024, Range Security employed 7 security professionals, and is focusing its recruitment efforts on military veterans, police officers, and other professionals with security experience. Range Security has purchased two fuel-efficient utility task vehicles for ground surveillance and a thermal-imaging drone for aerial surveillance, all of which use significantly less fuel and electricity to operate than traditional security vehicles and provide a much broader coverage range with a substantially lower carbon footprint. Range Security is also in the process of establishing satellite-based wireless service to support video surveillance and enable a mobile technology solution used by our security professionals to provide real-time evidence of visual security checks. Range Security plans to expand its security service business to additional mine sites, with a particular focus on locations with valuable infrastructure being repurposed into non-coal multi-use complexes with attractive job growth prospects and next generation industry opportunities. Range Land Range Land, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“Range Land”), is a land acquisition company started by the Company in August 2023. Range Land is focused on acquiring former mine lands with the goal of reclaiming and repurposing the sites for non-fossil fuel uses, including commercial, industrial, residential and recreational developments. Range Land is specifically focused on acquiring land to be used for renewable energy facilities, innovative agricultural installations, and projects focused on improving the quality and condition of our air, land and waterways. According to industry estimates, Appalachia contains nearly one million acres of abandoned, idled and non-performing mine sites that are burdened with significant land reclamation and water restoration obligations. Many of these troubled mine sites are subject to mining permits and associated reclamation bonds, which as a result, prevents the land from being repurposed for non-mining uses until the land has been reclaimed and the permits and bonds have been released by the applicable state’s environmental protection department. Water quality is a particularly challenging issue since a permit can only be released if the site has at least 12-months of compliant water samples without active chemical treatment, which heightens the need for water restoration solutions to help transition former mine land to economically viable non-mining uses. The Company has assembled the internal resources and capabilities to reclaim land, restore waterways, install innovative water treatment solutions, and secure the mine site to protect the significant historical investment in infrastructure. In addition, the Company has extensive knowledge and expertise regarding the permit and bond release process, which is a critical step necessary to unlock the underlying value of the former mine land for non-fossil fuel uses. Range Land is actively reviewing several mine sites throughout Appalachia to acquire, reclaim and repurpose in order to improve the land and create non-fossil fuel economic development opportunities for disadvantaged local coal communities. In September 2023, Range Land, through its wholly-owned subsidiary CLV Azurite Land, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“CLV Azurite”), acquired over 1,900 acres of surface interest at an idled mine complex in West Virginia. CLV Azurite is in active discussions with the holder of the permits and bonds associated with the acquired land to ensure that the acquired surface acreage can be repurposed for alternative non-fossil fuel uses. Concurrently, CLV Azurite is in active discussions with two experienced and well-capitalized solar developers to convert the former mine land into a large solar energy facility on a majority of the acquired surface acreage, as well as additional acreage for commercial, industrial, recreational and residential development. Under the solar arrangements, CLV Azurite would be the landlord and the solar developer-operator would be the tenant required to pay CLV Azurite a negotiated lease payment on a per acre basis. Graphium Biosciences Graphium Biosciences, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Graphium”), is a cannabinoid-based drug development company tracing its history of technological innovation and drug advancement back to October 2011 through two predecessor entities, Stevia First Corp. and Vitality Biopharma, Inc. In October 2021, the Company formed Graphium as a wholly-owned subsidiary and transferred all of its drug development assets to this newly-formed entity. Graphium is advancing a broad portfolio of glycosylated cannabinoid prodrugs that have been developed to unlock the rebalancing effects of the endocannabinoid system to address numerous chronic conditions with inadequate pharmaceutical options. Graphium’s leading drug candidate, VBX-100, is a glycosylated tetrahydrocannabinol (“THC”) cannabinoid that targets inflammatory conditions of the gastrointestinal tract but without unwanted psychoactive or intoxicating side effects. 22 Cannabinoids, including THC and cannabidiol (“CBD”), have well-known therapeutic benefits through their interaction with the human endocannabinoid system, which serves a regulating and rebalancing function in the body. For decades, patients have used cannabinoids to activate the endocannabinoid system to provide relief for numerous chronic and debilitating ailments, including inflammation, pain, anxiety, depression, and cancer. However, THC, a commonly-used cannabinoid with significant therapeutic benefit, is psychoactive and intoxicating, and therefore its use has many practical, and in some cases legal, limitations. Nevertheless, many patients with chronic health conditions, including gastrointestinal inflammation, continue to use cannabinoids because current pharmaceutical offerings do not provide adequate therapeutic relief or result in unwanted side effects. Our novel scientific discovery was the development of a proprietary enzymatic bioprocessing technology that adds one or more glucose molecules to a cannabinoid, resulting in our proprietary glycosylated cannabinoid compounds. Our glycosylated cannabinoids act as prodrugs that achieve targeted delivery of the bioactive cannabinoids within the body once they are activated. Prodrugs are compounds that, after administration, are metabolized into a pharmacologically active drug and are often designed to improve drug properties and reduce known or expected toxicities and adverse side effects. The advantages of our glycosylated cannabinoid prodrugs may include: (i) administration in a convenient oral formulation; (ii) targeted delivery with release in the colon or large intestine; (iii) improved stability with limited degradation or drug metabolism; and (iv) delayed release enabling longer-lasting effects and fewer administrations by patients. We have learned through our animal studies that glucose bound to cannabinoid molecules are inactive and poorly absorbed from the intestines, allowing the combined molecule to reach the large intestine where glycoside hydrolase enzymes cleave the glucose and the cannabinoid is released in a targeted and restricted manner. Further, we have learned through our animal studies that a targeted release of THC, which could be provided in very low doses to achieve physiologically beneficial results, serves as an anti-inflammatory agent in the lower gastrointestinal tract and minimizes the amount of THC absorbed into the blood stream. Therefore, we anticipate our glycosylated cannabinoid prodrug will provide the anti-inflammatory benefits of low-dose THC while avoiding the psychoactive and intoxicating properties that hinder the broader pharmaceutical use of THC. Initially, we are targeting the $20 billion inflammatory bowel disease (“IBD”) market in the United States, which is composed of patients suffering from ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease, both chronic and debilitating conditions with no cure. We also believe our glycosylated cannabinoids could also be used to treat other indications, including, among others, irritable bowel syndrome (“IBS”), anxiety, depression, autism and cancer. By using our proprietary enzymatic bioprocessing technologies, our research team has developed a novel family of over 100 glycosylated cannabinoid prodrugs. These glycosylated cannabinoids have unique commercial applications and patentable compositions of matter, which are separate and distinct from ordinary cannabinoids. Currently, our intellectual property is comprised of the following patents: (i) the Cannabinoid Glycoside Prodrugs and Methods of Synthesis patent filed in 2016 and granted in 2021 for the invention of novel glycosylated cannabinoids and methods of targeted delivery for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders, including IBD and IBS; (ii) the Antimicrobial Compositions Comprising Cannabinoids and Methods of Using the Same patent filed in 2018 and granted in 2021 for the use of cannabinoids as antibiotics for the treatment of Clostridioides difficile ; (iii) the Novel Cannabinoid Glycosides and Uses Thereof patent filed in 2020 and in prosecution for additional novel cannabinoid glycosides and includes research data supporting the improved characteristics and commercial production strategies for these new molecules; and (iv) the Continuous Enzymatic Perfusion Reactor System patent filed in 2021 and in prosecution for our improved reactor system for the efficient enzymatic glycosylation of hydrophobic small molecules, including cannabinoids. We believe our intellectual property portfolio of glycosylated cannabinoids possess significant value and, as a result, we have allocated substantial resources to ensure that our U.S. and international patents are properly filed and successfully prosecuted. As our research efforts involving glycosylated cannabinoids continue to progress, we plan to file additional patents to further expand our growing family of intellectual property assets and create long-term value for our shareholders. Our research team has performed 23 animal studies to test the safety, efficacy and dosing levels of our glycosylated cannabinoids, which have provided us with favorable scientific data and the opportunity to further refine our drug development plan. We have performed two industry standard colitis disease mouse models: (i) TNBS model in 2017 and 2018 that generated favorable colitis prevention data; and (ii) DSS model in 2021 that generated favorable colitis treatment data. In 2021, we received a letter from the Food and Drug Administration’s (“FDA”) Office of Orphan Products Development stating that we have been granted Orphan Drug Designation for our glycosylated cannabinoid VBX-100 for the treatment of pediatric ulcerative colitis. An Orphan Drug Designation provides several benefits, including fee waivers, tax credits, fast tracking of regulatory processes, and seven years of market exclusivity. 23 Due to our development of pharmaceutical products, we are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA and other federal, state, and local agencies. Also, since we are researching and developing cannabinoid-based products, we are subject to regulation by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (“DEA”). Our research and development activities focus on cannabinoids, particularly THC and CBD derived from the cannabis plant, which the DEA has classified as Schedule I substances. Schedule I substances are defined as drugs with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse. In May 2019, the DEA informed us that it had determined that they consider our VBX-100 prodrug a Schedule I substance. As a result, any developing, testing, manufacturing, or clinical studies involving our VBX-100 prodrug, and by inference potentially all of our THC-glycoside molecules, are required to be properly licensed by the DEA and adhere to strict diversion control standards. We are working closely with a third-party contract research organization to develop a detailed drug development plan to advance our leading drug candidate, VBX-100, through Phase II clinical trials by the end of 2027, subject to receipt of sufficient funding, which is currently estimated to be approximately $20 million. Graphium has engaged a registered broker-dealer to assist with the capital raise. Competition Our Company is focused on a large and growing marketplace for impact investing initiatives, and therefore, is anticipated to face competition from a variety of operating businesses and investment funds who are developing similar business plans and operating strategies to satisfy the increasing demands of these types of investments in the marketplace. In many cases, these competitors are larger and better capitalized operating businesses and investment funds. Our Company competes on the basis of a number of factors, including our geographic focus on Appalachia, access to mission-driven energy-transition capital, access to impact investing opportunities, strategic relationships with reclamation bond insurance companies, recruitment and retention of key personnel, market share with key customers, and supply relationships with critical vendors. Our ability to continue to compete effectively in our businesses will depend upon our ability to attract new employees and retain and motivate our existing employees. Information Systems In 2023, the Company engaged Foundation Software, LLC (“Foundation Software”) as its new accounting software provider and converted all of the Company’s accounting system operations from QuickBooks to Foundation Software during the second quarter of 2023. Founded in Cleveland, Ohio in 1985, Foundation Software is specifically designed for service companies, particularly those in the construction, contracting and reclamation industries. Foundation Software offers the Company several enhanced features critical to the successful execution of its shareholder value creation plan, including: (i) general ledger accounting, including accounts payable, accounts receivable, inventory and customer billing; (ii) equipment tracking on job sites, maintenance, utilization and depreciation; (iii) employee tracking on job sites, time and materials, utilization, and billing; (iv) job costing and profitability reporting segmented by customers, job types and location’ and (v) numerous real-time management dashboard and key performance indicator reports that will allow management to closely monitor financial and operational performance and quickly react to business opportunities and issues. Furthermore, Foundation Software will allow the Company to quickly scale operations and efficiently and cost-effectively support the anticipated growth of each business, thereby preventing our accounting and management systems from becoming a limiting factor to our growth initiatives. 24 Results of Operations Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 The Company’s revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $3,909,893 and its gross profit was $481,545. The Company’s revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $3,014,887 and its gross profit was $649,002. Increased depreciation on equipment acquired in August 2023 heavily impacted the gross margin results for the three months ended March 31, 2024. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, general and administrative expenses were $943,901, compared to $726,048 incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2023 (an increase of $217,853). General and administrative expenses generally include corporate overhead, salaries and other compensation costs, financial and administrative contracted services, insurance, marketing, consulting costs and travel expenses. The largest increase related to the general and administrative expenses was accounting, auditing and legal fees of $79,825, labor and benefit costs of $25,857 and insurance costs of $6,739 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to a year earlier. In addition, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company incurred research and development costs of $131,640, compared to $106,177 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 (an increase of $25,463). This increase resulted from an increase in legal and consulting fees incurred in connection with Graphium’s capital raise process. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company incurred net other expense in the amount of $157,153, compared to total net other expense of $43,637 recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2023 (an increase of $113,516). This increase was attributable to higher interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The net loss during the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $751,149 compared to a net loss of $226,860 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Liquidity and Capital Resources As of March 31, 2024, the Company had total current assets of $7,388,656, comprised of: (i) cash in the amount of $667,698; (ii) accounts receivable of $6,003,777; (iii) contract assets of $626,425; and (iv) prepaid expenses of $90,756. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had total current liabilities of $6,897,211, consisting of: (v) outstanding amounts on our lines of credit of $2,400,000; (w) accounts payable of $1,706,394; (x) contract liabilities of $205,327; (y) accrued expenses of $71,670, and (z) the current portion of long-term debt of $2,513,820. As a result, as of March 31, 2024, the Company had working capital of $491,445. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had working capital of $753,756. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had long-term assets of $13,424,864, comprised of: (i) net equipment assets of $10,919,567; (ii) land of $1,563,797; (iii) buildings of $180,103; (iv) goodwill of $751,421; and (v) deposits of $9,976. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had long-term liabilities of $5,095,940, comprised of long-term debt, net of current portion. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had long-term assets of $14,063,299, comprised of: (v) net equipment assets of $11,549,689; (w) land of $1,563,797; (x) building of $188,416; (y) goodwill of $751,421; and (z) deposits of $9,976. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had long-term liabilities of $5,250,027, comprised of long-term debt, net of current portion. Sources of Capital Based on the Company’s current corporate strategy, we expect our general operating expenses to be substantially offset by revenue generated by the Range Reclaim, Range Minerals and Range Security. We expect the Company’s operating businesses to generate operating income and positive cash flow over the 12 months following March 31, 2024. Based on the Company’s current cash balance and $100,000 currently available under its revolving credit line, the Company expects to have sufficient funds to operate its business over the next 12 months. If additional capital is needed in excess of our current capital resources, we will explore financing options to accelerate the funding and execution of our growth strategy and shareholder value creation plan. 25 Our estimated total expenditures for the 12-month period ending March 31, 2025 could increase if we encounter unanticipated lower revenues and higher expenses in connection with operating our business as presently planned. In addition, our estimates of the amount of cash necessary to fund our business may prove to be too low, and we could spend our available financial resources much faster than we currently expect. If we cannot raise the capital necessary to continue to develop our business, we will be forced to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of our proposed operations. If any of these were to occur, there is a substantial risk that our business would fail. Until such time as the Company and its operating businesses are cash flow positive, we expect to continue funding our operations, at least in part, through equity and debt financings. However, sources of additional funds may not be available when needed, on acceptable terms, or at all. If we issue equity or convertible debt securities to raise additional funds or to fund, in whole or in part, acquisitions in furtherance of our business strategy, our existing stockholders may experience substantial dilution, and the new equity or debt securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our existing stockholders. If we incur additional debt, we would incur additional interest expenses, and assuming those loans would be available, it would increase our liabilities and future cash commitments. Moreover, regardless of the manner in which we seek to raise capital, we may incur substantial costs in those pursuits, including investment banking fees, legal fees and other related costs. Net Cash Used in Operating Activities For the three months ended March 31, 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $1,113,045. This decrease was a result of a reduction in accounts payable of $2,007,621, accrued liabilities of $29,614, and an increase in contract assets of $379,115, partially offset by an increase in contract liabilities of $205,327 as well as a loss for the quarter of $751,149, offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $1,181,634, depreciation and non-cash expenses of $642,925 and a decrease in prepaid expenses of $24,568. Net cash provided by operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2023 consisted of a net loss of $226,860 and an increase in accounts receivable of $252,147, offset by an increase in accounts payable of $800,619 and depreciation expense of $354,184. Net Cash Used in Investing Activities For the three months ended March 31, 2024, there was no net cash used in investing activities. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash used in investing activities was $746,226, which consisted of equipment purchased by Range Environmental, Range Natural, Range Security and Terra Preta. Net Cash Provided By Financing Activities For the three months ended March 31, 2024, net cash used in financing activities was $396,057, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $142,921 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 consisted of repayment of long-term debt of $396,057. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 consisted of proceeds from long-term debt of $383,202, and proceeds from a line of credit of $100,000, offset by the repayment of long-term debt of $626,123. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that would be material to stockholders. 26 Critical Accounting Policies Our financial statements and accompanying notes included in this report have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. In general, management’s estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from the estimates made by management. We believe the following critical accounting policies require us to make significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements included in this report: Use of Estimates and Assumptions The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. The more significant estimates and assumption by management include, among others, assumptions used in valuing assets acquired in business acquisitions, reserves for accounts receivable, assumptions used in valuing equity instruments issued for services, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, accruals for potential liabilities, and assumptions used in the determination of the Company’s liquidity. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Business Combinations Business combinations are accounted for using the purchase method of accounting under ASC 805, “Business Combinations.” This method requires the Company to record assets and liabilities of the businesses acquired at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Any excess of the cost of the acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Determining the fair value requires management to make estimates and assumptions including discount rates, rates of return on assets, and long-term sales growth rates. Goodwill As referenced by ASC 350 “Intangibles- Goodwill and other” (“ASC 350”), management performs its annual test for goodwill at least annually or more frequently, if impairment indicators arise. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The core principle of the revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue by analyzing the following five steps: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company primarily invoices customers and recognizes revenue on a periodic basis for equipment and labor hours provided to a customer on a particular job based on an agreed-upon hourly rate sheet or a fixed amount for a project. The Company also invoices customers and recognizes revenue for equipment mobilization fees and materials and supplies required to complete a project. The Company invoices for the sales of chemicals and recognizes revenue when the products are delivered to the customer’s designated site. Costs for equipment, labor and chemicals are generally expensed as incurred since the projects are generally short-term and not subject to a contract. The Company also invoices customers for the provision of environmental security services on an agreed-upon hourly rate for each project. All revenue is recognized at a point in time. The Company recognizes revenue from contracts for financial reporting purposes over time. Progress toward completion of the Company’s contracts is measured by the percentage of cost incurred to date compared to estimated total costs for each contract. This method is used because management considers total cost to be the best available measure of progress on contracts. Because of inherent uncertainties in estimating costs, it is at least reasonably possible that the estimates used will change significantly within the near term. 27 Stock-Based Compensation The Company periodically issues stock options and restricted stock awards to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. The Company accounts for such grants issued and vesting based on ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation whereby the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized for employees as compensation expense on the straight-line basis over the vesting period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as if the Company had paid cash for the services. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Please refer to Footnote 1 of the accompanying financial statements for management’s discussion of recent accounting pronouncements. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk Not Applicable. Item 4.
