The Company’s proprietary micro-environment-controlled Agrify Vertical Farming Units (or “VFUs”) enable cultivators to produce the highest quality products with what it believes to be an unmatched consistency, yield, and Return on Investment at scale. The Company’s comprehensive extraction product line, which includes hydrocarbon, ethanol, solventless, post-processing, and lab equipment, empowers producers to maximize the quantity and quality of extract required for premium concentrates. The Company believes it is the only company with an automated and fully integrated grow solution in the industry. The Company’s cultivation and extraction solutions seamlessly combines its integrated hardware and software offerings with a broad range of associated services including consulting, engineering, and construction and is designed to deliver the most complete commercial indoor farming solution available from a single provider. The totality of its product offerings and service capabilities forms an unrivaled ecosystem in what has historically been a highly fragmented market. As a result, the Company believes it is well situated to create a dominant market position in the indoor agriculture sector. The Company was formed in the State of Nevada on June 6, 2016 as Agrinamics, Inc., and subsequently changed its name to Agrify Corporation. The Company is sometimes referred to herein by the words “we,” “us,” “our,” and similar terminology. The Company has nine wholly-owned subsidiaries, which are collectively referred to as the “Subsidiaries”: ● AGM Service Corp LLC (formerly AGM Service Corp Inc.); ● TriGrow Systems, LLC (“TriGrow”, which acted as the Company’s exclusive distributor and which was acquired in January 2020 as TriGrow Systems, Inc. and converted to TriGrow Systems, LLC in May 2020); ● Ariafy Finance, LLC; ● Agxiom, LLC; ● Harbor Mountain Holdings, LLC (“HMH”) (acquired in July 2020); ● Cascade Sciences, LLC (“Cascade”) (which was acquired by the Company on October 1, 2021); ● Precision Extraction NewCo, LLC (“Precision”) (which was a newly formed subsidiary in connection with the October 1, 2021 acquisition of Mass2Media, LLC, d/b/a PX2 Holdings, LLC, d/b/a Precision Extraction Solutions and Cascade); and ● PurePressure, LLC (“PurePressure”) (which was acquired by the Company on December 31, 2021); and ● Lab Society NewCo, LLC (“Lab Society”) (which was a newly formed subsidiary in connection with the February 1, 2022 acquisition of LS Holdings Corp). 5 The Company also has ownership interests in the following companies: ● Teejan Podoponics International LLC (“TPI”) (the Company has owned 50% of TPI since December 2018); ● Agrify-Valiant, LLC (“Agrify-Valiant”) (the Company is 60% majority owner and Valiant-America, LLC owns 40%, which was formed in December 2019. Subsequent to September 30, 2022, On October 27, 2022, the Company provided notice to Valiant-America, LLC of our intention to begin winding up of Agrify-Valiant); and ● Agrify Brands, LLC (“Agrify Brands”) (formerly TriGrow Brands, LLC) (the Company owns 75% of Agrify Brands, which ownership position was created as part of the January 2020 acquisition of TriGrow). Reverse Stock Split On January 12, 2021, the Company effected a 1-for-1.581804 reverse stock split of its Common Stock, $ 0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”). All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the reverse stock split for all periods presented unless otherwise indicated. On October 18, 2022, the Company effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its Common Stock. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the reverse stock split for all periods presented unless otherwise indicated. No fractional shares of Common Stock were issued as a result of these reverse stock splits. Any fractional shares in connection with these reverse stock splits were rounded up to the nearest whole share and no stockholders received cash in lieu of fractional shares. The reverse stock splits had no impact on the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company is authorized to issue pursuant to its articles of incorporation or on the par value per share of the Common Stock. Proportional adjustments were made to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of the Company's outstanding stock options and warrants, the exercise price or conversion price (as applicable) of the Company’s outstanding stock options and warrants, and the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Company’s equity incentive plan. All share and per share information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the impact of these reverse stock splits. Initial Public Offering and Secondary Public Offering On February 1, 2021, the Company closed its initial public offering, or (“IPO”), of 621,000 shares of its Common Stock (inclusive of 81,000 shares of Common Stock from the full exercise of the over-allotment option of shares granted to the underwriters). The offer and sale of all of the shares in the IPO were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (File Nos. 333- 251616 and 333-252490), which was declared effective by the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on January 27, 2021. In the IPO, Maxim Group LLC and Roth Capital Partners acted as the underwriters. The IPO price for shares of Common Stock was $ 100.00 per share. The total gross proceeds from the IPO were $ 62.1 million. After deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $ 4 million and offering expenses paid or payable by us of approximately $ 1 million, the net proceeds from the IPO were approximately $ 57 million. The Company used the net proceeds from the IPO for its current working capital needs, to support revenue growth, increase inventory to meet customer demand forecasts, and support operational growth. On February 19, 2021, the Company consummated a secondary public offering (the “February Offering”) of 555,556 shares of its Common Stock for a price of $ 135.00 per share, less certain underwriting discounts, and commissions. On March 22, 2021, the Company closed on the sale of an additional 83,333 shares of Common Stock on the same terms and conditions pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. The exercise of the over-allotment option brought the total number of shares of Common Stock sold by the Company in connection with the February Offering to 638,889 shares and the total net proceeds received in connection with the February Offering to approximately $ 80 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses. The Company used the net proceeds from the IPO for its current working capital needs, to support revenue growth, increase inventory, meet customer demand forecasts, and support operational growth. Coronavirus (“COVID-19”) Pandemic Impact and Uncertainties The COVID-19 pandemic has created significant public health concerns as well as economic disruption, uncertainty, and volatility that may negatively affect its business operations and financial results. As a result, if the pandemic or its effects persist or worsen, its accounting estimates and assumptions could be impacted in subsequent interim reports and upon final determination at year-end, and it is reasonably possible such changes could be significant (although the potential effects cannot be estimated at this time). The Company has experienced minimal business interruption as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic to date has resulted in supply chain delays of its inventory, higher operating costs and increased shipping costs, among other impacts. As events surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic can change rapidly, the Company cannot predict how it may disrupt its operations or the full extent of the disruption. 6 The Paycheck Protection Program In May 2020, the Company received an unsecured Paycheck Protection Program Loan (“PPP Loan”) from the Bank of America pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”). The Company received total loan proceeds of approximately $ 779 thousand from the PPP Loan. The SBA denied the Company’s application for the forgiveness of the outstanding balance of the PPP Loan. On June 23, 2022, the Company received a letter from Bank of America agreeing to extend the maturity date to May 7, 2025 and bears interest at a rate of 1.00 % per year. The PPP loan is payable in 34 equal combined monthly principal and interest payments of approximately $ 24 thousand that commenced on August 7, 2022. Preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and filed with the SEC (“Form 10-K”), except for the recently adopted accounting pronouncements described below. The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all normal and recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and the condensed consolidated cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Because the condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for a complete set of financial statements, they should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of a full year’s results. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation Accounting for Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of Agrify Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, as described above in Note 1 – Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, in accordance with the provisions required by the Consolidation Topic 810 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). The Company includes results of operations of acquired companies from the date of acquisition. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated. Accounting for Less Than Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries For the Company’s less than wholly-owned subsidiaries, which include TPI, Agrify-Valiant, and Agrify Brands, the Company first analyzes whether these entities are a variable interest entity (a “VIE”) in accordance with ASC Topic 810 Consolidation (“ASC810”), and if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary requiring consolidation. A VIE is an entity that has (i) insufficient equity to permit it to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or (ii) equity holders that lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. The financial results of a VIE are consolidated by the primary beneficiary, which is the entity that has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that potentially could be significant to the entity. Variable interests in a VIE are contractual, ownership or other financial interests in a VIE that change with changes in the fair value of the VIE’s net assets. The Company continuously re-assesses (i) whether the joint-venture is a VIE, and (ii) if the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. If it is determined that the joint-venture qualifies as a VIE and the Company is the primary beneficiary, the Company’s financial interest in the VIE is consolidated. 7 Based on the Company’s analysis of these entities, the Company has determined that Agrify-Valiant and Agrify Brands are each a VIE, and that the Company is the primary beneficiary. While the Company owns 60 % of Agrify-Valiant’s equity interests and 75 % of Agrify Brand’s equity interests, the remaining equity interests in Agrify-Valiant and Agrify Brands are owned by unrelated third parties, and the agreement with these third parties provides the Company with greater voting rights. Accordingly, the Company consolidates its interest in the financial statements of Agrify-Valiant and Agrify Brands under the VIE rules and reflects the third parties’ interests in the consolidated financial statements as a non-controlling interest. The Company records this non-controlling interest at its initial fair value, adjusting the basis prospectively for the third parties’ share of the respective consolidated investments’ net income or loss or equity contributions and distributions. These non-controlling interests are not redeemable by the equity holders and are presented as part of permanent equity. Income and losses are allocated to the non-controlling interest holders based on its economic ownership percentage. The investment in 50 % of the shares of TPI is treated as an equity investment as the Company cannot exercise significant influence. Going Concern In accordance with the FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern”, the Company’s management evaluated whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the financial statements’ issuance date. The following matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. The Company has incurred operating losses since its inception and has negative cash flows from operations. The Company also has an accumulated deficit of $ 207.5 million as of September 30, 2022. The Company's primary sources of liquidity are its cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, with additional liquidity accessible, subject to market conditions and other factors, including limitations that may apply to the Company under applicable SEC regulations, from the capital markets, including under its at-the-market continuous equity offering (“ATM” or ATM Program”). As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $ 12.5 million of cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and restricted cash. The Company’s restricted cash is associated with its new senior secured note (the “Exchange Note”) was $ 10.0 million as of September 30, 2022. Current liabilities were $ 41.5 million as of September 30, 2022. Additional information regarding the Company’s Exchange Note may be found in Note 9 – Debt, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter of 2022, the Company entered into an agreement for the ATM Program with Canaccord Genuity LLC (the “Agent”), pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell, from time to time, shares of its Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $ 50 million, depending on market demand, with the Agent acting as an agent for sales. The ATM allows for quick and agile sales of Common Stock to interested investors and provides an opportunity to raise additional capital for working capital requirements or to fund strategic opportunities that may present themselves from time to time. The Company has used, and intends to continue to use, the $ 15.1 million in net proceeds generated from the ATM Program as of November 7, 2022 for working capital and general corporate purposes, including repayment of indebtedness, funding the Company’s transformation initiatives and product category expansion efforts and capital expenditures. As of November 7, 2022, the Company had $ 34.4 million of remaining availability for future issuances of Common Stock under the ATM Program. Additional information regarding the Company’s ATM Program and proceeds received subsequent to September 30, 2022, may be found in Note 19 – Subsequent Events, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company believes these conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within the next twelve months from the date these financial statements are available to be issued. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary debt or equity financing to continue operations until the Company begins generating sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations. There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the potential future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Use of Estimates The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the accrual of expenses. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and other market-specific, other relevant factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances and management’s judgement. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates when there are changes in circumstances, facts and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Actual financial results could differ from those estimates. 8 Fiscal Year For the Company and its Subsidiaries, the fiscal year ends on December 31, each year. Emerging Growth Company The Company qualifies as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, (“JOBS Act”). As a result, the Company is permitted to, and intends to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are applicable to companies that are not emerging growth companies. In addition, the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. The Company will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest to occur of: ● reporting $1.0 billion or more in annual gross revenues; ● the issuance, in a three-year period, of more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt; ● the end of the fiscal year in which the market value of Common Stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter; or ● December 31, 2026. As of June 30, 2022, the market value of Common Stock held by non-affiliates did not exceed $700 million. Reclassifications Certain amounts in the Company’s prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the current period financial statements. In this Form 10-Q, the Company has reclassified selling, general and administrative expenses to two separate line items in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as general and administrative expenses and selling and marketing expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. In addition, the Company effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its Common Stock on October 18, 2022. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the reverse stock split for all periods presented unless otherwise indicated. The shares of Common Stock retained a par value of $ 0.001 per share. Accordingly, the stockholders’ deficit reflects the reverse stock split by reclassifying from “Common Stock” to “additional paid-in capital” an amount equal to the par value of the decreased shares resulting from the reverse stock split. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash Cash and cash equivalents consist principally of cash and deposits with maturities of three months or less as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. All cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. Restricted cash represents cash required to be held as collateral for the Company’s Exchange Note. Accordingly, these balances contain restrictions as to their availability and usage and are classified as restricted cash in the consolidated balance sheets. Additional information relating to the Company’s Exchange Note may be found in Note 9 – Debt, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Marketable Securities The Company’s marketable security investments primarily include investments held in mutual funds, municipal bonds, and corporate bonds. The mutual funds are recorded at fair value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as part of cash and cash equivalents. The municipal and corporate bonds are considered to be held-to-maturity securities and are recorded at amortized cost in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of these investments was estimated using recently executed transactions and market price quotations. The Company considers current assets to be those investments that will mature within the next 12 months, including interest receivable on long-term bonds. Accounts Receivable, Net Accounts receivable, net, primarily consists of amounts for goods and services that are billed and currently due from customers. Accounts receivable balances are presented net of an allowance for credit losses, which is an estimate of billed amounts that may not be collectible. In determining the amount of the allowance at each reporting date, management makes judgments about general economic conditions, historical write-off experience, and any specific risks identified in customer collection matters, including the aging of unpaid accounts receivable and changes in customer financial conditions. Accounts receivable balances are written off after all means of collection are exhausted and the potential for non-recovery is determined to be probable. Adjustments to the allowance for credit losses are recorded as general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. 9 Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customer Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk primarily consist of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and accounts receivable. Cash equivalents primarily consist of money market funds with original maturities of three months or less, which are invested primarily with U.S. financial institutions. Cash deposits with financial institutions, including restricted cash, generally exceed federally insured limits. Management believes minimal credit risk exists with respect to these financial institutions and the Company has not experienced any losses on such amounts. The tables below show customers who account for 10 % or more of the Company’s total revenues and 10 % or more of the Company’s accounts receivable for the periods presented: Revenue For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s customers that accounted for 10 % or more of the total revenue were as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 Three Months Ended September 30, 2021 (In thousands) Amount % of Total Revenue Amount % of Total Revenue New England Innovation Academy (“NEIA”) – Related Party * * $ 3,217 20.4 % Greenstone Holdings (“Greenstone”) – Related Party * * $ 1,998 12.7 % Company Customer Number – 71 * * $ 3,174 20.2 % Company Customer Number – 136 $ 908 12.9 % $ 2,480 15.7 % Company Customer Number – 139 * * $ 4,006 25.4 % * Customer revenue, as a percentage of total revenue, was less than 10 % For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s customers that accounted for 10 % or more of the total revenue were as follows: Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 (In thousands) Amount % of Total Revenue Amount % of Total Revenue NEIA – Related Party * * $ 19,572 56.6 % Company Customer Number – 71 * * $ 3,520 10.2 % Company Customer Number – 136 $ 7,054 13.5 % * * Company Customer Number – 139 $ 8,590 16.4 % $ 4,006 11.6 % * Customer revenue, as a percentage of total revenue, was less than 10 % Accounts Receivable, Net As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s customers that accounted for 10 % or more of the total accounts receivable, net, were as follows: As of September 30, 2022 As of December 31, 2021 (In thousands) Amount % of Total Accounts Receivable Amount % of Total Accounts Receivable NEIA – Related Party * * $ 3,498 48.4 % Company Customer Number - 126 $ 1,541 33.8 % $ 1,541 21.3 % Company Customer Number - 15989 $ 600 13.2 % * * Company Customer Number - 16540 $ 573 12.6 % * * Company Customer Number - 185 $ 526 11.5 % * * Company Customer Number - 12237 $ 510 11.2 % * * * Customer accounts receivable balance, as a percentage of total accounts receivable balance, was less than 10 % 10 Inventories The Company values all of its inventories, which consist primarily of significant raw material hardware components, at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost principally determined by the weighted-average cost method on a First-In, First-Out basis. Write-offs of potentially slow-moving or damaged inventory are recorded through specific identification of obsolete or damaged material. The company takes physical inventory at least once annually at all inventory locations. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses are recognized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of each asset, as follows: Estimated Useful Life (Years) Computer and office equipment 2 to 3 Furniture and fixtures 2 Software 3 Vehicles 5 Research and development of laboratory equipment 5 Machinery and equipment 3 to 5 Leased equipment at customer 5 to 13 Trade show assets 3 to 5 Leasehold improvements Lower of estimated useful life or remaining lease term The estimated useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment are periodically assessed to determine if changes are appropriate. The Company charges maintenance and repairs to expenses as incurred. When the Company retires or disposes of assets, the carrying cost of these assets and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are eliminated from the consolidated balance sheet and any resulting gain or loss are included in the consolidated statements of operations in the period of retirement or disposal. Costs for capital assets not yet placed into service are capitalized as construction-in-progress and depreciated once placed into service. Goodwill Goodwill is defined as the excess of cost over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, and more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The Company has determined that it is a single reporting unit for the purpose of conducting the goodwill impairment assessment. A goodwill impairment charge is recorded if the amount by which the Company’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Factors that could lead to a future impairment include material uncertainties such as a significant reduction in projected revenues, a deterioration of projected financial performance, future acquisitions and/or mergers, and/or a decline in the Company’s market value as a result of a significant decline in the Company’s stock price. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, the Company identified an impairment-triggering event associated with both a sustained decline in the Company’s stock price and associated market capitalization, as well as a second-quarter slowdown in the cannabis industry as a whole. Due to these factors, the Company deemed that there was an impairment to the carrying value of its long-lived assets and accordingly performed interim testing as of June 30, 2022. Based on its interim testing, the Company noted that the carrying value of equity exceeded the calculated fair value by an amount greater than the aggregate value of our goodwill and intangible assets. Accordingly, the Company concluded that the entire carrying value of its goodwill and intangible assets should be impaired, resulting in a second-quarter impairment charge of $ 69.9 million. Additional information regarding the Company’s interim testing on goodwill may be found in Note 7 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. 11 Intangible Assets The Company initially records intangible assets at their estimated fair values and reviews these assets periodically for impairment. Identifiable intangible assets, which consist principally of acquired customer-related acquired assets, acquired and/or developed technology, non-compete agreements, and trade names, are reported net of accumulated amortization, and are being amortized over their estimated useful lives at amortization rates that are proportional to each asset’s estimated economic benefit. The Company’s intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company reviews the carrying value of these intangible assets annually, or more frequently if indicators of impairment are present. The finite-lived useful lives are as follows: Trade names 5 to 7 years Acquired developed technology 5 to 8 years Non-compete agreements 5 years Customer relationships 5 to 8 years Capitalized website costs 3 to 5 years In performing the review of the recoverability of intangible assets, the Company considers several factors, including whether there have been significant changes in legal factors or the overall business climate that could affect the underlying value of an asset. The Company also considers whether there is an expectation that the asset will be sold or disposed of before the end of its remaining estimated useful life. If, as the result of examining any of these factors, the Company concludes that the carrying value of the intangible asset exceeds its estimated fair value, the Company recognizes an impairment charge and reduces the carrying value of the asset to its estimated fair value. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, the Company identified an impairment-triggering event associated with both a sustained decline in the Company’s stock price and associated market capitalization, as well as a second-quarter slowdown in the cannabis industry as a whole. Due to these factors, the Company deemed that there was an impairment to the carrying value of its long-lived assets and accordingly performed interim testing as of June 30, 2022. Based on its interim testing, the Company noted that the carrying value of equity exceeded the calculated fair value by an amount greater than the aggregate value of our goodwill and intangible assets. Accordingly, the Company concluded that the entire carrying value of its goodwill and intangible assets should be impaired, resulting in a second-quarter impairment charge of $69.9 million. Additional information regarding the Company’s interim testing on intangible assets may be found in Note 7 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Convertible Notes Payable The Company evaluates its convertible instruments to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivative financial instruments to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 815 Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC815”). The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company identify and record certain embedded conversion options (“ECOs”), certain variable-share settlement features, and any related freestanding instruments at their fair values as of the inception date of the agreement and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense for each reporting period at each balance sheet date. The Company reassesses the classification of its derivative instruments at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the contract is reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification. Bifurcated embedded conversion options, variable-share settlement features and any related freestanding instruments are recorded as a discount to the host instrument which is amortized to interest expense over the life of the respective note using the effective interest method. If the Company determines that an instrument is not a derivative liability, it then evaluates whether there is a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”), by comparing the commitment date fair value to the effective current conversion price of the instrument. The Company records a BCF as a debt discount which is amortized to interest expense over the life of the respective note using the effective interest method. BCFs that are contingent upon the occurrence of a future event are recognized when the contingency is resolved. Warrant Liabilities The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including issued private placement stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC480”) and ASC815. The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC480 and ASC815. Management’s assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC480, whether they meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own Common Stock among other conditions for equity classification. For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, they are recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that are precluded from equity classification, they are recorded as a liability at their initial fair value on the date of issuance and subject to remeasurement on each balance sheet date with changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants to be recognized as an unrealized gain or loss in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. 12 On August 18, 2022, the Company reached an agreement with its institutional lender to amend its existing Securities Purchase Agreement and entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company issued a new warrant to purchase 1,422,764 shares of Common Stock (the “Note Exchange Warrant”) and modified an existing warrant (the “SPA Warrant”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 688,111 shares of Common Stock. The Company exchanged the SPA Warrant for a new warrant for the same number of underlying shares but with a reduced exercise price (the “Modified Warrants” and, collectively with the Note Exchange Warrant, the “Warrant Liabilities”). As of September 30, 2022, the Company had outstanding liability-classified Warrant Liabilities that allows the accredited investor (the “Investor”) to purchase 2,110,875 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Additional information regarding the Exchange Agreement and Warrant Liabilities may be found in Note 4 – Fair Value Measures and Note 9 – Debt, included elsewhere in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Debt Issue Costs and Debt Discount The Company may record debt issuance costs and/or debt discounts in connection with issuing of debt. The Company may cover these costs by paying cash or issuing warrants. These costs are amortized to interest expense over the expected life of the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs, a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed. Original Issue Discount For certain convertible debt issued by the Company, it may provide the debt holder with an original issue discount. The Company would record the original issue discount to debt discount, reducing the face amount of the note, and is then amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt. Leases The Company determines at the inception of a right-of-use asset contract if such arrangement is or contains a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company classifies leases at the lease commencement date as operating or finance leases and records a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on its consolidated balance sheet for all leases with an initial lease term of greater than 12 months. A lease with an initial term of 12 months or less is not recorded on the balance sheet, but related payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s right-of-use asset contracts may contain both lease and non-lease components. Non-lease components may include maintenance, utilities, and other operating costs. The Company combines the lease and non-lease components of fixed costs in its lease arrangements as a single lease component. Variable costs, such as utilities or maintenance costs, are not included in the measurement of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, but rather are expensed when the event determining the amount of variable consideration to be paid occurs. Lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of future lease payments over the expected lease term. The Company determines the present value of future lease payments by using its estimated secured incremental borrowing rate for that lease term as the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. The Company estimates its secured incremental borrowing rate for each lease based on the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term. Certain of the Company’s right-of-use asset leases include options to extend or terminate the lease. The amounts determined for the Company’s right-of-use assets and lease liabilities generally do not assume that renewal options or early-termination provisions, if any, are exercised unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options. Deferred Revenue Deferred revenue includes amounts collected or billed in excess of revenue that it can recognize. The Company recognizes deferred revenue as revenue as the related performance obligation is satisfied. The Company records deferred revenue that will be recognized during the succeeding twelve-month period as a current liability on the consolidated balance sheet. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The estimated fair value of the accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates their carrying value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. Stock-Based Compensation The Company measures all stock options and other stock-based awards granted to employees and directors based on the fair value on the date of the grant and recognizes compensation expense of those awards, net of estimated forfeitures, over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. Historically, the Company has issued stock options to employees, directors and consultants with only service-based vesting conditions and records the expense for these awards using the straight-line method. The Company classifies stock-based compensation expense in its consolidated statements of operations in the same manner in which the award recipient’s payroll costs are classified. 13 The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option grant on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Before the IPO, the Company was a private company and therefore lacks company-specific historical and implied volatility information. Therefore, it estimates its expected stock volatility based on the historical volatility of similar publicly-traded companies and expects to continue to do so until such time as it has adequate historical data regarding the volatility of its own traded stock price. The expected term of the Company’s stock options has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method for awards that qualify as “plain-vanilla” options. The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. The expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends and does not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Business Combinations The Company accounts for business acquisitions using the purchase method of accounting, in accordance with which assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their respective fair values at the acquisition date. The fair value of the consideration paid, including contingent consideration, is assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company’s management exercises significant judgments in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as intangibles and their estimated useful lives. Fair value and useful life determinations are based on, among other factors, estimates of future expected cash flows, royalty cost savings and appropriate discount rates used in computing present values. These judgments may materially impact the estimates used in allocating acquisition date fair values to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as the Company’s current and future operating results. Actual results may vary from these estimates which may result in adjustments to goodwill and acquisition date fair values of assets and liabilities during a measurement period or upon a final determination of asset and liability fair values, whichever occurs first. Adjustments to the fair value of assets and liabilities made after the end of the measurement period are recorded within the Company’s operating results. For contingent consideration arrangements, the Company recognizes a liability at fair value as of the acquisition date with subsequent fair value adjustments recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. Additional information regarding the Company’s contingent consideration arrangements may be found in Note 4 – Fair Value Measures, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Revenue Recognition Overview The Company generates revenue from the following sources: (1) equipment sales, (2) providing services and (3) construction contracts. In accordance with ASC 606 “Revenue Recognition”, the Company recognizes revenue from contracts with customers using a five-step model, which is described below: ● identify the customer contract; ● identify performance obligations that are distinct; ● determine the transaction price; ● allocate the transaction price to the distinct performance obligations; and ● recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied. Identify the customer contract A customer contract is generally identified when there is approval and commitment from both the Company and its customer, the rights have been identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability, and consideration is probable. Specifically, the Company obtains written/electronic signatures on contracts and a purchase order, if said purchase orders are issued in the normal course of business by the customer. 14 Identify performance obligations that are distinct A performance obligation is a promise by the Company to provide a distinct good or service or a series of distinct goods or services. A good or service that is promised to a customer is distinct if the customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer, and a company’s promise to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. Determine the transaction price The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer, excluding sales taxes that are collected on behalf of government agencies. Allocate the transaction price to distinct performance obligations The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the relative standalone selling prices (“SSP”) of the goods or services being provided to the customer. The Company’s contracts typically contain multiple performance obligations, for which the Company accounts for individual performance obligations separately, if they are distinct. The standalone selling price reflects the price the Company would charge for a specific piece of equipment or service if it was sold separately in similar circumstances and to similar customers. Recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied Revenue is recognized when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of a promised product or service to a customer. Significant Judgments The Company enters into contracts that may include various combinations of equipment, services and construction, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. Contracts with customers often include promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together may require significant judgment. Once the Company determines the performance obligations, it determines the transaction price, which includes estimating the amount of variable consideration to be included in the transaction price, if any. The Company then allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract based on the SSP. The corresponding revenue is recognized as the related performance obligations are satisfied. Judgment is required to determine the SSP for each distinct performance obligation. The Company determines SSP based on the price at which the performance obligation is sold separately and the methods of estimating SSP under the guidance of ASC 606-10-32-33. If the SSP is not observable through past transactions, the Company estimates the SSP, taking into account available information such as market conditions, expected margins, and internally approved pricing guidelines related to the performance obligations. The Company licenses its software as a SaaS type subscription license, whereby the customer only has a right to access the software over a specified time period. The full value of the contract is recognized ratably over the contractual term of the SaaS subscription, adjusted monthly if tiered pricing is relevant. The Company typically satisfies its performance obligations for equipment sales when equipment is made available for shipment to the customer; for services sales as services are rendered to the customer and for construction contracts both as services are rendered and when contract is completed. The Company utilizes the cost-plus margin method to determine the SSP for equipment and build-out services. This method is based on the cost of the services from third parties, plus a reasonable markup that the Company believes is reflective of a market-based reseller margin. The Company determines the SSP for services in time and materials contracts by observable prices in standalone services arrangements. 15 The Company estimates variable consideration in the form of royalties, revenue share, monthly fees, and service credits at contract inception and updated at the end of each reporting period if additional information becomes available. Variable consideration is typically not subject to constraint. Changes to variable consideration were not material for the periods presented. If a contract has payment terms that differ from the timing of revenue recognition, the Company will assess whether the transaction price for those contracts include a significant financing component. The Company has elected the practical expedient that permits an entity to not adjust for the effects of a significant financing component if the Company expects that at the contract inception, the period between when the entity transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service, will be one year or less. For those contracts in which the period exceeds the one-year threshold, this assessment, as well as the quantitative estimate of the financing component and its relative significance, requires judgment. Accordingly, the Company imputes interest on such contracts at an agreed-upon interest rate and will present the financing components separately as financial income. For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have any such financial income. Payment terms with customers typically require payment 30 days from the invoice date. The Company’s agreements with its customers do not provide for any refunds for services or products and therefore no specific reserve for such is maintained. In the infrequent instances where customers raise concern over delivered products or services, the Company has endeavored to remedy the concern and all costs related to such matters have been insignificant in all periods presented. The Company has elected to treat shipping and handling activities after the customer obtains control of the goods as a fulfillment cost and not as a promised good or service. Accordingly, the Company will accrue all fulfillment costs related to the shipping and handling of consumer goods at the time of shipment. The Company has payment terms with its customers of one year or less and has elected the practical expedient applicable to such contracts not to consider the time value of money. Sales, value add, and other taxes the Company collects concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. The Company receives payment from customers based on specified terms that are generally less than 30 days from the satisfaction of performance obligations. There are no contract assets related to performance under the contract. The difference in the opening and closing balances of the Company’s deferred revenue primarily results from the timing difference between the Company’s performance and the customer’s payment. The Company fulfills obligations under a contract with a customer by transferring products and services in exchange for consideration from the customer. Accounts receivables are recorded when the customer has been billed or the right to consideration is unconditional. The Company recognizes deferred revenue when consideration has been received or an amount of consideration is due from the customer, and the Company has a future obligation to transfer certain proprietary products. In accordance with ASC 606-10-50-13, the Company is required to include disclosure on its remaining performance obligations as of the end of the current reporting period. Due to the nature of the Company’s contracts, these reporting requirements are not applicable. The majority of the Company’s remaining contracts meet certain exemptions as defined in ASC 606-10-50-14 through 606-10-50-14A, including (i) performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less and (ii) the right to invoice practical expedient. The Company generally provides a one-year warranty on its products for materials and workmanship but may provide multiple-year warranties as negotiated, and will pass on the warranties from its vendors, if any, which generally covers this one-year period. In accordance with ASC 450-20-25, the Company accrues for product warranties when the loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. The reserve for warranty returns is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. 16 Research and Development Costs The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred. Research and development expenses include payroll, employee benefits and other expenses associated with product development. The Company incurs research and development costs associated with the development and enhancement of both hardware and software products associated with its cultivation and extraction equipment, as well as its SaaS-based software offering, Agrify Insights™ cultivation software. Capitalization of Internal Software Development Costs The Company capitalizes certain software engineering efforts related to the continued development of Agrify Insights™ cultivation software under ASC 985-20. Costs incurred during the application development phase are only capitalized once technical feasibility has been established and the work performed will result in new or additional functionality. The types of costs capitalized during the application development phase include employee compensation, as well as consulting fees for third-party software developers working on these projects. Costs related to the research and development are expensed as incurred until technical feasibility is established as well as post-implementation activities. Internal-use software is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset, which ranges from two to five years. Shipping and Handling Charges The Company incurs costs related to shipping and handling of its manufactured products. These costs are expensed as incurred as a component of cost of goods sold. Shipping and handling charges related to the receipt of raw materials are also incurred, which are recorded as a cost of the related inventory. Equity Method Investments Investments in affiliates that are 50 % or less owned by the Company for which the Company exercises significant influence but does not have control are accounted for on the equity method. The Company has investments in equity investments without readily determinable fair values, which represents investments in entities where the Company does not have the ability to significantly influence the operations of the entities. An assessment of whether or not the Company (as a holder of 50 % of TPI) has the power to direct activities that most significantly impact TPI’s economic performance and to identify the party that obtains the majority of the benefits of the investment was performed as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and will be performed as of each subsequent reporting date. After each of these assessments, the Company concluded that the activities that most significantly impact TPI’s economic performance are the growth, marketing, sale, and distribution of products using TPI’s technology and IP, each of which is solely directed by TPI. Based on the consideration of these assessments, the Company concluded that the Company’s investment in TPI should be accounted for under the equity method. The carrying value of the Company’s investment in TPI was $ 0 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company did not recognize revenue from TPI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized. The Company follows the provisions of ASC 740-10-25-5, “Basic Recognition Threshold.” When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10-25-6, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the consolidated financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. As of September 30, 2022, tax years 2017 through 2021 remain open for IRS audit. The Company has received no notice of audit from the IRS for any of the open tax years. 17 The Company recognizes the benefit of a tax position when it is effectively settled. ASC 740-10-25-10, “Basic Recognition Threshold” provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits. ASC 740-10-25-10 clarifies that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion of an examination by a taxing authority. For tax positions considered effectively settled, the Company recognizes the full amount of the tax benefit. Net Loss Per Share The Company presents basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to Common Stockholders in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities. The Company computes basic loss per share by dividing net loss available to Common Stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Net loss available to Common Stockholders represents net loss attributable to Common Stockholders reduced by the allocation of earnings to participating securities. Losses are not allocated to participating securities as the holders of the participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to share in any losses. Diluted loss per share adjusts basic loss per share for the potentially dilutive impact of stock options and warrants. As the Company has reported losses for all periods presented, all potentially dilutive securities including stock options and warrants, are anti-dilutive, and accordingly, basic net loss per share equals diluted net loss per share. Net loss per share calculations for all periods have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock splits effected on January 12, 2021 and October 18, 2022. Net loss per share was calculated based on the weighted-average number of Common Stock outstanding. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt - 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. The amendments in ASU No. 2020-06 simplify the complexity associated with applying GAAP for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. More specifically, the amendments focus on the guidance for convertible instruments and derivative scope exceptions for contracts in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this new accounting guidance had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position. Pending Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), which introduces a new methodology for accounting for credit losses on financial instruments, including available-for-sale debt securities and accounts receivable. The guidance establishes a new “expected loss model” that requires entities to estimate current expected credit losses on financial instruments by using all practical and relevant information. Any expected credit losses are to be reflected as allowances rather than reductions in the amortized cost of available-for-sale debt securities. ASU 2016-13 is effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this adoption on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. 18 In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 606): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which requires that an entity recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606 as if it had originated the contracts. Generally, this should result in an acquirer recognizing and measuring the acquired contract assets and contract liabilities consistent with how they were recognized and measured in the acquiree’s financial statements, if the acquiree prepared financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The amendment in this update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The guidance should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date of the amendment in this update. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this adoption on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements. Note 2 — Revenue and Deferred Revenue Revenue During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company generated revenue from the following sources: (1) equipment sales, (2) services sales and (3) construction contracts. The Company sells its equipment and services to customers under a combination of a contract and purchase order. Equipment revenue includes sales from proprietary products designed and engineered by the Company such as Agrify Vertical Farming Units (“VFUs”), container farms, integrated grow racks, and LED grow lights, and non-proprietary products designed, engineered, and manufactured by third parties such as air cleaning systems and pesticide-free surface protection. Construction contracts normally provide for payment upon completion of specified work or units of work as identified in the contract. Although there is considerable variation in the terms of these contracts, they are primarily structured as time-and-material contracts. The Company enters into time-and-materials contracts under which the Company is paid for labor and equipment at negotiated hourly billing rates and other expenses, including materials, as incurred at rates agreed to in the contract. The Company uses three main sub-contractors to execute the construction contracts. The following table provides the Company’s revenue disaggregated by the timing of revenue recognition: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, (In thousands) 2022 2021 2022 2021 Transferred at a point in time $ 5,657 $ 2,757 $ 28,675 $ 4,110 Transferred over time 1,362 12,994 23,694 30,474 Total revenue $ 7,019 $ 15,751 $ 52,369 $ 34,584 In accordance with ASC 606-10-50-13, the Company is required to include disclosure on its remaining performance obligations as of the end of the current reporting period. Due to the nature of the Company’s contracts, these reporting requirements are not applicable, because the majority of the Company’s remaining contracts meet certain exemptions as defined in ASC 606-10-50-14 through 606-10-50-14A, including (i) performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less and (ii) the right to invoice practical expedient. 19 The Company generally provides a one-year warranty on its products for materials and workmanship but may provide multiple year warranties as negotiated, and generally transfers to its customers the warranties it receives from its vendors, if any, which generally cover this one-year period. In accordance with ASC 450-20-25, the Company accrues for product warranties when the loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. The Company maintains a reserve for warranty returns of $ 540 thousand and $ 398 thousand for September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The Company’s reserve for warranty returns is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in its consolidated balance sheets. Additional information regarding the Company’s warranty reserve may be found in Note 3 – Supplemental Consolidated Balance Sheet Information, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Deferred Revenue Changes in the Company’s current deferred revenue balance for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021 were as follows: (In thousands) Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Year Ended December 31, 2021 Deferred revenue – beginning of period $ 3,772 $ 152 Additions 18,167 3,758 Interest income on deferred revenue — 4 Recognized ( 11,803 ) ( 142 ) Deferred revenue – end of period $ 10,136 $ 3,772 Deferred revenue balances primarily consist of customer deposits on its cultivation and extraction solutions equipment.

(2) Accrued acquisition liabilities include both the contingent consideration and the value of held-back Common Stock associated with the 2022 acquisition of Lab Society and the 2021 acquisition of PurePressure. Warranty Accrual The following table summarizes the activity related to the Company’s accrued liability for estimated future warranty costs: (In thousands) Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Year Ended December 31, 2021 Warranty accrual – beginning of period $ 398 $ — Liabilities accrued for warranties issued during period 142 398 Warranty accrual – end of period $ 540 $ 398 Note 4 — Fair Value Measures Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities In accordance with ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurement”, the Company measures fair value at the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability (the inputs) are based on a tiered fair value hierarchy consisting of three levels, as follows: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2: Other inputs that are observable directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or for similar markets that are not active. Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data which require the Company to develop its own assumptions about how market participants would price the asset or liability. Valuation techniques for assets and liabilities include methodologies such as the market approach, the income approach, or the cost approach, and may use unobservable inputs such as projections, estimates and management’s interpretation of current market data. These unobservable inputs are only utilized to the extent that observable inputs are not available or cost-effective to obtain. 22 At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows: September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Fair Value Measurements Using Input Types Fair Value Measurements Using Input Types (In thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets Mutual funds (included in cash and cash equivalents) $ — $ — $ — $ — $ 178 $ — $ — $ 178 Municipal bonds — — — — 9,961 — — 9,961 Corporate bonds 381 — — 381 34,589 — — 34,589 Total assets $ 381 $ — $ — $ 381 $ 44,728 $ — $ — $ 44,728 Liabilities Contingent consideration $ — $ — $ 643 $ 643 $ — $ — $ 6,137 $ 6,137 Warrant liabilities — — 971 971 — — — — Total liabilities $ — $ — $ 1,614 $ 1,614 $ — $ — $ 6,137 $ 6,137 Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company has certain financial instruments which consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, warrant liabilities, and contingent consideration. Fair value information for each of these instruments is as follows: ● Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and deferred revenue liabilities approximate their fair values based on the short-term nature of these instruments. ● Marketable securities classified as current held-to-maturity securities are recorded at amortized cost, which at September 30, 2022, approximated fair value. ● The Company’s deferred consideration was recorded in connection with acquisitions during the first quarter of 2022 and fiscal 2021 using an estimated fair value discount at the time of the transaction. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the carrying value of the deferred consideration approximated fair value, respectively. ● The Company’s Warrant Liabilities are marked-to-market each reporting period with the changes in fair value of warrant liability are recorded to other income (expense), net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations until the warrants are exercised. The fair value of the warrant liability is estimated using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Marketable Securities As of September 30, 2022, the Company held investments in mutual funds, municipal bonds and corporate bonds. The Company records mutual funds at fair value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as part of cash and cash equivalents. The municipal and corporate bonds are considered held-to-maturity securities and are recorded at amortized cost in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The fair values of these investments were estimated using recently executed transactions and market price quotations. The Company considers current assets as those investments which will mature within the next 12 months including, interest receivable on long-term bonds. The composition of the Company’s marketable securities are as follows: (In thousands) September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Current marketable securities Municipal bonds $ — $ 9,961 Corporate bonds 381 34,589 $ 381 $ 44,550 23 At September 30, 2022, marketable securities consisted of the following: (In thousands) Amortized cost Unrealized loss Estimated fair value Current marketable securities (due within 1 year) Corporate bonds $ 381 $ ( 10 ) $ 371 $ 381 $ ( 10 ) $ 371 At December 31, 2021, marketable securities consisted of the following: (In thousands) Amortized cost Unrealized loss Estimated fair value Current marketable securities (due within 1 year) Municipal bonds $ 9,961 $ ( 9 ) $ 9,952 Corporate bonds 34,589 ( 72 ) 34,517 $ 44,550 $ ( 81 ) $ 44,469 Contingent Consideration The Company has classified its net liability for contingent earn-out considerations to the sellers relating to one acquisition completed during the first quarter of 2022 and two acquisitions completed during fiscal 2021. The fair value for the contingent consideration associated with these acquisitions is within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because the associated fair value is determined using significant unobservable inputs, which included the key assumptions to model future revenue, costs of goods sold and operating expense projections. A description of the Company’s acquisitions completed during the first quarter of 2022 and fiscal 2021 are included within Note 8 – Business Combinations, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. (In thousands) Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Year Ended December 31, 2021 Contingent consideration – beginning of period $ 6,137 $ — Accrued contingent consideration 1,420 4,725 Accretion of contingent consideration 145 — Payments made on contingent liabilities ( 5,550 ) — Change in estimated fair value ( 1,509 ) 1,412 Contingent consideration – end of period $ 643 $ 6,137 The Company included contingent consideration within accrued expenses and other current liabilities in its consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. See below for additional information related to each acquisition’s contingent consideration. Contingent Consideration – PurePressure The Company, in its review of actual revenue performance as compared to its originally projected revenue estimates, noted that PurePressure’s revenue trend is materially below the originally estimated revenue trends incorporated into the Company’s original fair value estimates at the time of the acquisition. As a result, the Company has reduced its fair value estimate of achievement for PurePressure’s first earn-out period. During the third quarter ended September 30, 2022, the Company reduced the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability associated with PurePressure’s first earn-out period by approximately $ 602 thousand. As required by ASC Topic 805 Business Combination (“ASC805”), the change in contingent consideration was recorded as a reduction in operating expenses during the third quarter of 2022. Contingent Consideration – Lab Society The Company, in its review of actual revenue performance as compared to its originally projected revenue estimates, noted that Lab Society’s revenue trend is materially below the originally estimated revenue trends incorporated into the Company’s original fair value estimates at the time of the acquisition. As a result, the Company has reduced its fair value estimate of achievement for Lab Society’s first earn-out period. During the second quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company reduced the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability associated with Lab Society’s first earn-out period by approximately $ 1.0 million. As required by ASC805, the change in contingent consideration was recorded as a reduction in operating expenses during the second quarter of 2022. 24 Contingent Consideration – Precision and Cascade The earn-out period for the potential contingent consideration to be earned by the former members of Precision and Cascade concluded on December 31, 2021. The Company, during the second quarter of 2022, increased the amount of the contingent consideration earned by the former members of Precision and Cascade by approximately $ 121 thousand, to reflect the final contingent consideration amount due. This amount, as required by ASC805, was recorded as an increase in operating expenses during the second quarter of 2022. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2022 , the Company made the final payment on the contingent consideration of approximately $ 5.6 million to the members of Precision and Cascade. Additional information regarding the Company’s final payment to Precision and Cascade may be found in Note 8 – Business Combination, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Warrant liabilities The estimated fair value of the Warrant Liabilities on September 30, 2022 is determined using Level 3 inputs. Inherent in a Black-Scholes option-pricing model are assumptions used in calculating the estimated fair values represent the Company’s best estimate. However, inherent uncertainties are involved. If factors or assumptions change, the estimated fair values could be materially different. The following table summarizes the Company’s assumptions used in the valuation of Warrant Liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022: Stock price at issuance $ 0.44 Option exercise price $ 1.23 -$ 2.15 Expected term (Years) 5.50 Volatility 40.00 % Discount rate (Treasury yield) 0.00 %- 4.06 % The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value of the Level 3 Warrant Liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022: (In thousands) Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Warrant liabilities – beginning of period $ — Initial fair value of warrant liabilities 6,657 Change in estimated fair value ( 5,686 ) Warrant liabilities – end of period $ 971 25 Note 5 — Loan Receivable A portion of the capital raised from the Company’s IPO has been allocated to launch the Company’s TTK Solution program. The TTK Solution is the industry’s first-of-its-kind program in which the Company engages with qualified cannabis operators in the early phases of their business plans and provides critical support, typically over a 10 -year period, which includes: access to capital for construction costs, the design and build-out of their cultivation and extraction facilities, state-of-the-art cultivation and extraction equipment, subscription to the Company’s Agrify Insights™ cultivation software, process design, training, implementation, proven grow recipes, product formulations, data analytics, and consumer branding, which will enable the Company’s customers to go to market faster and better. The loan agreements entered into with customers receiving the TTK Solution generally provide for loans with maturity dates of approximately two to three years after the completion of the construction projects. Typically, the TTK Solution construction loans have interest rates ranging from 12 % to 18 % per year. During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, the Company provided a notice of default under the term loan agreement between the Company and Bud & Mary’s (the “Bud & Mary’s TTK Agreement”). On October 5, 2022, Bud & Mary’s Cultivation, Inc. (the “Bud & Mary’s”) filed a complaint in the Superior Court of Massachusetts in Suffolk County naming the Company as defendant. Bud & Mary’s is seeking, among other relief, monetary damages in connection with alleged unfair or deceptive trade practices, breach of contract and conversion arising from the Bud & Mary’s TTK Agreement. In response, the Company established a reserve of $14.7 million specifically related to Bud & Mary’s. The Company deemed it necessary to fully reserve the $ 14.7 outstanding balance due to the current litigation and the uncertainty of the customer’s ability to repay the outstanding balance. In addition, $ 5.3 million of the notes receivable balance for work performed during the third quarter of 2022 has been recorded as an unbilled note receivable and deferred the revenue to a future period. The Company has recognized the expenses associated with the work completed in the current period due to the uncertainty of the Company’s ability to recover the funds owed by the customer and its obligations to the vendors that have performed this work. The Company determined that it will only recognize unbilled notes receivable revenue if cash is collected from the customer in a future period. The Company believes that Bud & Mary’s claims have no merit and intends to defend itself vigorously. The Company is taking all necessary steps to pursue repayment from Bud & Mary’s and is taking all actions necessary to protect its shareholders’ interests. During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company established a reserve of approximately $ 7.1 million specifically related to Greenstone. The Company established the reserve based upon its review of Greenstone’s financial stability, which would impact collectability, which is primarily the result of unfavorable market conditions within the Colorado market. The Company will continue to monitor the operations of Greenstone in an effort to collect all outstanding receivables but due to the uncertain nature of Greenstone’s business at this time the Company has made the decision to place a reserve against the receivables. Greenstone is a related party as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The breakdown of loans receivable by customer as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is as follows: (In thousands) September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Bud & Mary’s – TTK Solution $ 14,691 $ 5,542 Greenstone – TTK Solution – Related Party 12,457 11,177 Company Customer Number 136 – TTK Solution 10,329 2,439 Company Customer Number 125 – TTK Solution 5,563 1,105 Company Customer Number 71 – Non-TTK Solution (1) 2,542 1,946 Company Customer Number 140 – TTK Solution 46 46 Other – Non-TTK Solutions 5,374 — TTK Solution – Allowance for doubtful accounts (2) ( 21,770 ) — Total loan receivable $ 29,232 $ 22,255 (1) The current portion of loan receivable are included within Note 3 – Supplemental Consolidated Balance Sheet Information, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. (2) The Company established an allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $ 14.7 million related to Bud & Mary’s ongoing litigation. The remaining balance of approximately $ 7.1 million relates to Greenstone consisting of capital advances, accrued interest and VFUs sales. 26 At this time, the Company is not aware of, nor has it identified any risk or potential performance failure associated with any of its other TTK Solution arrangements with the noted exception of Bud & Mary’s TTK Solution and Greenstone TTK Solution, as described above. The Company analyzed whether any of the above customers are a VIE in accordance with ASC810 and if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary requiring consolidation. Based on the Company’s analysis, the Company has determined that Greenstone is a VIE. As of September 30, 2022, two of the Company’s employees own approximately 36.6 % of the equity of Greenstone, however, since the Company is not the primary beneficiary and does not hold significant influence over Greenstone business decisions, the Company is not required to consolidate Greenstone. Note 6 — Inventory Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost principally determined by the weighted-average cost method on a First-In, First-Out basis. Such costs include the acquisition cost for raw materials and operating supplies. The Company’s standard payment terms with suppliers may require making payments in advance of delivery of the Company’s products. The Company’s prepaid inventory is a short-term, non-interest-bearing asset that is applied to the purchase of products once they are delivered. Inventory consisted of the following as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021: (In thousands) September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Raw materials $ 17,130 $ 6,393 Prepaid inventory 4,827 2,237 Finished goods 21,743 12,810 Inventory, gross 43,700 21,440 Inventory reserves ( 1,909 ) ( 942 ) Total inventory, net $ 41,791 $ 20,498 Inventory Reserves The Company establishes an inventory reserve for obsolete, slow-moving, and defective inventory. The Company calculates inventory reserves for obsolete, slow-moving, or defective items as the difference between the cost of inventory and its estimated net realizable value. The reserves are based upon management’s expected method of disposition. Changes in the Company’s inventory reserve are as follows: (In thousands) Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Year Ended December 31, 2021 Inventory reserves – beginning of period $ 942 $ — Increase in inventory reserves 967 942 Inventory reserves – end of period $ 1,909 $ 942 Note 7 — Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net Intangible assets are initially recorded at fair value and tested periodically for impairment. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination and is tested at least annually for impairment. The Company performs its goodwill impairment testing annually during the fourth quarter, or sooner if indicators or if circumstances were to occur that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the Company’s reporting unit below its carrying amount. The Company would recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill. 27 The Company has concluded that there was an impairment-triggering event during the three months ended June 30, 2022 that required the Company to perform a detailed analysis of the current carrying value of its goodwill and intangible assets. For intangible asset and goodwill impairment testing purposes, the Company has one reporting unit. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, the Company’s market capitalization fell below total net assets. In addition, financial performance continued to weaken during the quarter, which is contrary to prior experience. Management reassessed business performance expectations, following persistent adverse developments in equity markets, deterioration in the environment in which the Company operates, lower-than-expected sales, and an increase in operating expenses. These indicators, in the aggregate, required impairment testing for intangible assets and goodwill. Based on the results of this testing, the Company determined that the carrying values of the aggregate value of its goodwill and intangible assets were not recoverable. The Company recorded impairment charges during the second quarter of 2022, representing a full impairment of the carrying value of its goodwill and intangible assets. The Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $ 69.9 million, representing the carrying values of intangible assets and goodwill, which totaled $ 15.2 million and $ 54.7 million, respectively. Goodwill consisted of the following: (In thousands) Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Year Ended December 31, 2021 Goodwill - beginning of period $ 50,090 $ 632 Goodwill acquired during period 4,368 49,458 Goodwill impairment loss ( 54,747 ) — Goodwill purchase accounting adjustment 289 — Goodwill - end of period $ — $ 50,090 Intangible assets, net as of September 30, 2022 was as follows: Intangible Assets, Gross Accumulated Amortization and Impairment Intangible Assets, Net (In thousands) January 1, 2022 Additions September 30, 2022 January 1, 2022 Expense and Impairments, net September 30, 2022 January 1, 2022 September 30, 2022 Trade names $ 2,418 $ 317 $ 2,735 $ ( 227 ) $ ( 2,508 ) $ ( 2,735 ) $ 2,191 $ — Customer relationships 6,176 713 6,889 ( 302 ) ( 6,587 ) ( 6,889 ) 5,874 — Acquired developed technology 4,911 1,432 6,343 ( 191 ) ( 6,152 ) ( 6,343 ) 4,720 — Non-compete agreements 1,202 — 1,202 ( 60 ) ( 1,142 ) ( 1,202 ) 1,142 — Capitalized website costs 245 — 245 ( 100 ) ( 145 ) ( 245 ) 145 — Total intangible assets, net $ 14,952 $ 2,462 $ 17,414 $ ( 880 ) $ ( 16,534 ) $ ( 17,414 ) $ 14,072 $ — 28 Intangible assets, net as of December 31, 2021 was as follows: Intangible Assets, Gross Accumulated Amortization Intangible Assets, Net (In thousands) January 1, 2021 Additions December 31, 2021 January 1, 2021 Expense December 31, 2021 January 1, 2021 December 31, 2021 Trade names $ 930 $ 1,488 $ 2,418 $ ( 88 ) $ ( 139 ) $ ( 227 ) $ 842 $ 2,191 Customer relationships 850 5,326 6,176 ( 89 ) ( 213 ) ( 302 ) 761 5,874 Acquired developed technology — 4,911 4,911 — ( 191 ) ( 191 ) — 4,720 Non-compete agreements — 1,202 1,202 — ( 60 ) ( 60 ) — 1,142 Capitalized website costs 139 106 245 ( 48 ) ( 52 ) ( 100 ) 91 145 Total intangible assets, net $ 1,919 $ 13,033 $ 14,952 $ ( 225 ) $ ( 655 ) $ ( 880 ) $ 1,694 $ 14,072 Amortization expense recorded in general and administrative in the consolidated statements of operations were $ 0 and $ 57 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $ 1.4 million and $ 172 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Note 8 — Business Combination Acquisition of Lab Society On February 1, 2022, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Lab Society, a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Michael S. Maibach Jr., as the Owner Representative thereunder, and each of the shareholders of Lab Society (collectively, the “Owners”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire Lab Society. Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Company consummated the merger of Lab Society with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub surviving such merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Lab Society Acquisition”). The aggregate consideration for the Lab Society Acquisition consisted of: $4.0 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments for working capital, cash, and indebtedness of Lab Society at closing; 42,561 shares of Common Stock (the “Buyer Shares”); and the Earn-out Consideration (as defined below), to the extent earned. The Company withheld 12,768 of the Buyer Shares issuable to the Owners (the “Holdback Lab Buyer Shares”) for the purpose of securing any post-closing adjustment owed to the Company and any claim for indemnification or payment of damages to which the Company may be entitled under the Merger Agreement. During the third quarter of 2022, 2,785 of the Holdback Lab Buyer Shares were forfeited after the finalization of the net working capital settlement. The remaining 9,983 Holdback Lab Buyer Shares will be released following the twelve-month anniversary of the Closing Date in accordance with and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement includes customary post-closing adjustments, representations and warranties, and covenants of the parties. The Owners may become entitled to additional consideration with a value of up to $3.5 million based on the eligible net revenues achieved by the Lab Society business during the fiscal years ending December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023, of which 50% will be payable in cash and the remaining 50% will be payable by issuing shares of Common Stock. Additional information regarding the Company’s contingent consideration arrangements may be found in Note 4 – Fair Value Measures, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. 29 Transaction and related costs, consisting primarily of professional fees, related to the acquisition, totaled approximately $ 0 and $ 66 thousand for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. All transaction and related costs were expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses. The Company has prepared purchase price allocations for the business combination with Lab Society on a preliminary basis. Changes to those allocations may occur as additional information becomes available during the respective measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The following table sets forth the components and the allocation of the purchase price for the business combination: (In thousands) Purchase price consideration Estimated closing proceeds $ 4,002 Transaction expenses 80 Closing buyer shares 1,904 Holdback buyer shares 816 Earn-out consideration 1,420 Estimated working capital adjustment ( 255 ) Fair value of total consideration transferred 7,967 Total purchase price, net of cash acquired $ 7,402 Fair value allocation of purchase price Cash and cash equivalents $ 565 Accounts receivable 511 Inventory 2,130 Prepaid expenses and other current receivables 55 Right - of-use assets, net 304 Property and equipment, net 177 Prepaid and refundable taxes 194 Accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities ( 1,244 ) Deferred revenue ( 963 ) Deferred tax liability ( 237 ) Finance lease liabilities, current ( 36 ) Finance lease liabilities, non-current ( 35 ) Operating lease liabilities, current ( 112 ) Operating lease liabilities, non-current ( 192 ) Acquired intangible assets 2,462 Goodwill 4,388 Total purchase price $ 7,967 Identified intangible assets consist of trade names, technology, and customer relationships. The fair value of intangible assets and the determination of their respective useful lives were made in accordance with ASC805 and are outlined in the table below: (In thousands) Asset Value Useful Life Identified intangible assets Trade names $ 317 5 years Acquired developed technology 1,432 8 years Customer relationships 713 6 years Total identified intangible assets $ 2,462 The Company’s initial fair value estimates related to the various identified intangible assets of Lab Society were determined under various valuation approaches including the Income Approach, Relief-from-Royalty Method, and Discounted Cash Flow Method. These valuation methods require management to project revenues, operating expenses, working capital investment, capital spending, and cash flows for the reporting unit over a multiyear period, as well as determine the weighted-average cost of capital to be used as a discount rate. 30 During the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, the Company identified an impairment-triggering event associated with both a sustained decline in the Company’s stock price and associated market capitalization, as well as a second-quarter slowdown in the cannabis industry as a whole. Due to these factors, the Company deemed that there was an impairment to the carrying value of its long-lived assets and accordingly performed interim testing as of June 30, 2022. Based on its interim testing, the Company noted that the entire carrying value of its goodwill and intangible assets should be impaired. Additional information regarding the Company’s interim testing on goodwill and intangible assets may be found in Note 7 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The amount of revenue of Lab Society included in the consolidated statements of operations from the acquisition date of February 1, 2022 to September 30, 2022 was $ 4.0 million. Acquisition of Precision and Cascade On September 29, 2021 (the “Execution Date”), the Company entered into a Plan of Merger and Equity Purchase Agreement, as amended by an amendment dated October 1, 2021 (as amended, the “Purchase Agreement”), with Sinclair Scientific, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sinclair”), Mass2Media, LLC, Precision, a Michigan limited liability company; and each of the equity holders of Sinclair named therein (collectively, the “Sinclair Members”). On October 1, 2021, the Company consummated the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, (1) Sinclair transferred, to the Company, and the Company purchased (the “Interest Purchase”) from Sinclair, 100 % of the equity interests of Cascade, a Delaware limited liability company, such that immediately after the consummation of such Interest Purchase, Cascade became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and (2) Precision merged (the “Merger”) with and into a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Precision Extraction NewCo, LLC. The aggregate consideration for the Interest Purchase and the Merger consisted of: (a) the sum of $30 million in cash, plus consideration payable to holders of outstanding Sinclair equity awards, subject to certain adjustments for working capital, cash and indebtedness, payable in connection with the Interest Purchase; (b) the number of shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment, equal to the quotient of (i) $20.0 million divided by (ii) the volume weighted-average price per share of Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market for the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the Execution Date (the “VWAP Price”), issuable in connection with the Merger; and (c) the True-Up Buyer Shares, if any (as defined below), issuable in connection with the Merger. The Purchase Agreement includes customary post-closing adjustments, representations and warranties and covenants of the parties. The Sinclair Members may become entitled to additional shares of Common Stock (the “True-Up Buyer Shares”) and cash (together with the True-Up Buyer Shares, the “Aggregate True-Up Payment) based on the eligible net revenues (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) achieved by the Cascade and Precision businesses during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. However, in no event shall the aggregate purchase price paid by the Company pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, taking into account any Aggregate True-Up Payment in favor of the Sinclair Members, exceed $65.0 million. On August 10, 2022, the Company entered into a post-closing adjustment settlement agreement (“Agreement”) with Sinclair. The Agreement was entered into in connection with the Purchase Agreement. According to the Purchase Agreement, $2.5 million was held by the escrow agent as the Adjustment Escrow Amount, $4.5 million was held by the escrow agent as the Indemnity Escrow Amount and 11,760 Buyer Shares were held by the Company as the Holdback Buyer Shares. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2022 , the Company made the final Aggregate True-up Payment of approximately $5.6 million, of which, $3.3 million was paid in cash and 8,704 Holdback Buyer Shares were released to the Sinclair Members and the Company received $1.4 million from the Adjustment Escrow Amount, and the remaining $1.1 million balance of the Adjustment Escrow Amount became part of the Indemnity Escrow Amount. Transaction and related costs, consisting primarily of professional fees, related to the acquisition, totaled approximately $0 and $63 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. All transaction and related costs were expensed as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. 31 The following table sets forth the components and the allocation of the purchase price for the business combination: (In thousands) Purchase price consideration Cash paid to Sinclair Members at the close $ 23,000 Cash contributed to escrow accounts at the close 7,000 Cash paid for excess net working capital 1,430 Stock issued at the close 14,535 Fair value of contingent consideration to be achieved 3,953 Fair value of total consideration transferred 49,918 Total purchase price, net of cash acquired $ 48,630 Fair value allocation of purchase price Cash and cash equivalents $ 1,288 Accounts receivable 897 Inventory 6,761 Prepaid expenses and other current receivables 1,736 Property and equipment, net 970 Right-of-use assets, net 730 Capitalized web costs, net 2 Accounts payable and accrued expenses ( 9,223 ) Deferred revenue ( 5,419 ) Long-term debt ( 1,961 ) Operating lease liabilities, current ( 392 ) Operating lease liabilities, non-current ( 362 ) Acquired intangible assets 9,889 Goodwill 45,002 Total purchase price $ 49,918 Identified intangible assets consist of trade names, technology, non-compete agreements, and customer relationships.

The aggregate consideration for the Acquisition consisted of: (a) $ 4.0 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments for working capital, cash and indebtedness of PurePressure at closing; (b) 32,918 shares of Common Stock (the “Buyer Shares”); and (c) the Earn-out Consideration (as defined below), to the extent earned. The Company withheld 8,888 of the Buyer Shares issuable to certain Members (the “Holdback Buyer Shares”) for the purpose of securing any post-closing adjustment owed to the Company and any claim for indemnification or payment of damages to which the Company may be entitled under the Pure Purchase Agreement. During the third quarter of 2022, 1,456 of the Holdback Buyer Shares were forfeited after the finalization of the net working capital settlement. The remaining 7,432 of the Holdback Buyer Shares will be released following the twelve-month anniversary of the Closing Date in accordance with and subject to the conditions of the Pure Purchase Agreement. The Pure Purchase Agreement includes customary post-closing adjustments, representations and warranties and covenants of the parties. The Members may become entitled to additional consideration with a value of up to $3.0 million based on the eligible net revenues achieved by the PurePressure business during the fiscal years ending December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023, of which 40% will be payable in cash and the remaining 60% will be payable by issuing shares of Common Stock (collectively, the “Earn-out Consideration”).

Note Payable Securities Purchase Agreement On March 14, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with the Investor, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Investor, in a private placement transaction, in exchange for the payment by the Investor of $65 million, less applicable expenses, as set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement, a senior secured promissory note in an aggregate principal amount of $65 million (the “SPA Note”) , and a SPA Warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 688,111 shares of Common Stock. Securities Exchange Agreement On August 18, 2022, the Company reached an agreement with its Investor to amend its existing senior SPA Note and entered into the Exchange Agreement. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company partially paid $ 35.2 million under the SPA Note and exchanged the remaining balance of the SPA Note for an Exchange Note with an aggregate original principal amount of $ 35.0 million and a new Note Exchange Warrant to purchase 1,422,764 shares of Common Stock and modified an existing SPA Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 688,111 shares of Common Stock. The Company exchanged the SPA Warrant for a new warrant for the same number of underlying shares but with a reduced exercise price (the “Modified Warrants” and, collectively with the Note Exchange Warrant, the “Warrant Liabilities”). As of September 30, 2022, the Company had outstanding liability-classified Warrant Liabilities that allows the Investor to purchase 2,110,875 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Additional information regarding the Company’s Warrant Liabilities may be found in Note 1 – Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies and Note 4 – Fair Value Measures, included elsewhere in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Exchange Note is a senior secured obligation of the Company and ranks senior to all indebtedness of the Company. The Exchange Note will mature on the three-year anniversary of its issuance (the “Maturity Date”) and contains a 9.0 % annualized interest rate, with interest to be paid monthly, in cash, beginning September 1, 2022. The principal amount of the Exchange Note will be payable on the Maturity Date, provided that the Investor will be entitled to a cash sweep of 20 % of the proceeds received by the Company in connection with any equity financing, which will reduce the outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note. At any time, the Company may prepay all of the Exchange Note by redemption at a price equal to 102.5 % of the then-outstanding principal amount under the Note plus accrued but unpaid interest. The Investor will also have the option of requiring the Company to redeem the Exchange Note on the one-year or two-year anniversaries of issuance at a price equal to the then-outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note plus accrued but unpaid interest, or if the Company undergoes a fundamental change at a price equal to 102.5 % of the then-outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note plus accrued but unpaid interest. 35 The Exchange Note imposes certain customary affirmative and negative covenants upon the Company, as well as covenants that restrict the Company and its subsidiaries from incurring any additional indebtedness or suffering any liens, subject to specified exceptions, restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries from making certain investments, subject to specified exceptions, restrict the declaration of any dividends or other distributions, subject to specified exceptions, require the Company not to exceed maximum levels of allowable cash spend while the Exchange Note is outstanding, and require the Company to maintain minimum amounts of cash on hand. If an event of default under the Exchange Note occurs, the Investor can elect to redeem the Exchange Note for cash equal to 115 % of the then-outstanding principal amount of the Note (or such lesser principal amount accelerated by the Investor), plus accrued and unpaid interest, including default interest, which accrues at a rate per year equal to 15 % from the date of a default or event of default. As of September 30, 2022, the Company is in compliance with the financial debt covenants associated with its Exchange Note. Until the date the Exchange Note is fully repaid, the Investor has, subject to certain exceptions, the right to participate for up to 30 % of any offering of debt, equity (other than an offering of solely Common Stock), or equity-linked securities, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock or other instrument or security, of the Company or its subsidiaries. The Modified Warrant have an exercise price of $ 21.50 per share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends and similar transactions, will be exercisable on and after the six-month anniversary of issuance, have a term of five and one-half years from the date of issuance and will be exercisable on a cash basis, unless there is not an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Modified Warrant (the “Modified Warrant Shares”) or if shareholder approval for the full exercise of the Modified Warrant is not received, in which case the Modified Warrant will also be exercisable on a cashless exercise basis at the Investor’s election. The Note Exchange Warrant have an exercise price of $ 12.30 per share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends and similar transactions, were exercisable upon issuance, and have a term of five and one-half years from the date of issuance and will be exercisable on a cash basis, unless there is not an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant (the “Note Exchange Warrant Shares” and, together with the Modified Warrant Shares, the “Exchange Warrant Shares”) or if shareholder approval for the full exercise of the Note Exchange Warrant is not received, in which case the Note Exchange Warrant will also be exercisable on a cashless exercise basis at the Investor’s election. Until the Company completes a qualified equity financing of at least $ 15.0 million, which requirement was satisfied with sales under the ATM Program, the Note Exchange Warrant’s exercise price would have been reduced to the extent the Company issues securities, subject to certain exceptions, for a lower purchase price. The Note Exchange Warrant also prohibited the Company, until following the completion of such qualified equity financing, from issuing warrants with more favorable or preferential terms and/or provisions. The Warrant Liabilities will each provide that in no event will the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of such warrant result in the Investor’s beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% of the Company’s shares of Common Stock outstanding at the time of exercise (which percentage may be decreased or increased by the Investor, but to no greater than 9.99%, and provided that any increase above 4.99% will not be effective until the sixty-first day after notice of such request by the Investor to increase its beneficial ownership limit has been delivered to the Company). Additionally, the Warrant Liabilities could be exercised for more than an aggregate of 530,858 shares of Common Stock unless and until shareholder approval is obtained, which approval was obtained on October 14, 2022.

The Company received total proceeds of approximately $ 779 thousand from the unsecured PPP Loan, which was originally scheduled to mature on May 7, 2022 . The SBA denied the Company’s submission to have the remaining $ 779 thousand PPP Loan forgiven. On June 23, 2022, the Company received a letter from Bank of America agreeing to extend the maturity date to May 7, 2025 and bears interest at a rate of 1.00 % per year. The PPP loan is payable in 34 equal combined monthly principal and interest payments of approximately $ 24 thousand that commenced on August 7, 2022. The breakdown of PPP Loan balances by current and non-current as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were as follows: (In thousands) Balance Sheet Location September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 PPP Loan, current Long-term debt, current $ 256 $ 792 PPP Loan, non-current Long-term debt 470 12 Total PPP Loan outstanding $ 726 $ 804 PurePressure SBA Debt As part of the acquisition of PurePressure, $ 159 thousand of debt remained outstanding from a standard SBA loan as of December 31, 2021. This debt has subsequently been paid as a part of the PurePressure acquisition. Note 10 — Leases Leases The determination if any arrangement contained a lease at its inception was done based on whether or not the Company has the right to control the asset during the contract period. The lease term was determined assuming the exercise of options that were reasonably certain to occur. Leases with a lease term of 12 months or less at inception were not reflected in the Company’s balance sheet and those lease costs are expensed on a straight-line basis over the respective term. Leases with a term greater than 12 months were reflected as non-current right-of-use assets and current and non-current lease liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. 37 As the implicit interest rate in its leases was generally not known, the Company’s used its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for purposes of determining the present value of its lease liabilities. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s weighted-average discount rate utilized for its leases was 7.27 % and 7.16 %, respectively. When a contract contained lease and non-lease elements, both were accounted as a single lease component. The Company had several non-cancelable finance leases for machinery and equipment. The Company’s finance leases have remaining lease terms of one year to five years. The Company had several non-cancelable operating leases for corporate offices, warehouses, showrooms, research and development facilities and vehicles. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of one year to five years, some of which include options to extend. Some leases include payment for communal area maintenance associated with the property.

Pursuant to the amendment, immediately prior to the consummation of a public transaction, the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, shall convert into a number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, at a conversion price of $ 77.20 per share. While the original conversion feature was bifurcated from the host instrument, the Company determined that the amended conversion feature would not require bifurcation. Since the accounting for the conversion feature changed because of the amendment, the Company applied extinguishment accounting pursuant to its accounting policy. Accordingly, the Company recognized a gain on extinguishment of $ 2.7 million in connection with the derecognition of the net carrying amount of the extinguished debt of $ 19.6 million (inclusive of $ 13.1 million of principal, $ 7.1 million of derivative liabilities, less $ 587 thousand of debt discount) and the recognition of the $ 16.9 million fair value of the new convertible notes (including the same principal amount of $ 13.1 million plus the $ 3.8 million fair value of the beneficial conversion feature). On February 1, 2021, in conjunction with the closing of the Company’s IPO, the Convertible Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $ 13.1 million were converted into 169,707 shares of Common Stock at the election of the Company at a conversion price of $ 77.20 per share. Note 12 — Stockholders’ Equity On July 11, 2022, the Company increased its authorized number of shares of Common Stock to 103,000,000 , consisting of: 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock, and 3,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. On January 9, 2020, the Company designated 100,000 shares of the 3,000,000 authorized shares of Preferred Stock, as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”). 39 Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the Company issued an aggregate of 60,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $ 6.0 million. In May 2020, the Company completed an offering of Series A Preferred Stock with the issuance of an additional 40,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $ 4.0 million. Amendment of Conversion Formulas On January 11, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the amendment to the conversion formula of the Series A Preferred Stock and Convertible Notes. After the amendment: ● the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible, at any time after the issuance or immediately prior to the closing of a public transaction, into Common Stock in an amount of shares equal to (i) the product of the Series A Preferred Stock original price plus accrued but unpaid dividends on the shares being converted, multiplied by the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock being converted, divided by (ii) a conversion price of $77.20 per share (after the reverse split taking effect); and ● immediately prior to the consummation of a public transaction, the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes together with all accrued and unpaid interest shall convert into a number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (i) the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder immediately prior to such public transaction divided by (ii) a conversion price of $77.20 per share (after the reverse split taking effect). On January 11, 2021, the Company’s shareholders approved the amendment to the Series A Preferred Stock. Initial Public Offering On February 1, 2021, the Company completed an IPO for the sale of 540,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $ 100.00 per share. The Company also granted the underwriters: (a) a 45-day option to purchase up to 81,000 additional shares of Common Stock on the same terms and conditions for the purpose of covering any over-allotments in connection with the IPO, and (b) warrants to purchase 16,200 shares of Common Stock (equal to 3 % of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued in the IPO) at an exercise price of $ 125.00 per share (which is equal to 125 % of the IPO price). Subsequently, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option, and on February 4, 2021, the Company closed on the sale of an additional 81,000 shares of Common Stock for a price of $ 100.00 per share and granted to the underwriters warrants to purchase 2,430 additional shares of Common Stock (equal to 3 % of the amount of shares issued as part of the exercised of the over-allotment option) at an exercise price of $ 125.00 per share. The exercise of the over-allotment option brought the total number of shares of Common Stock sold by the Company in connection with the IPO to 621,000 shares and the total net proceeds received in connection with the IPO to approximately $ 57.0 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses. Immediately prior to the closing of the Company’s IPO, all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Convertible Notes were converted into 137,304 shares of Common Stock and 169,707 shares of Common Stock, respectively, at a conversion price of $ 77.72 per share. 40 Subsequent Public Offering On February 19, 2021, the Company consummated a secondary public offering (the “February Offering”) for the sale of 555,556 shares of Common Stock for a price of $ 135.00 per share. The Company also granted the underwriters: (a) a 45-day option to purchase up to 83,333 additional shares of Common Stock on the same terms and conditions for the purpose of covering any over-allotments in connection with the February Offering, and (b) warrants to purchase 16,667 shares of Common Stock (equal to 3 % of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued in the February Offering) at an exercise price of $ 168.75 per share (which is equal to 125 % of the February Offering). Subsequently, the underwriters exercised the over-allotment option, and on March 22, 2021, the Company closed on the sale of an additional 83,333 shares of Common Stock for a price of $ 135.00 per share and granted to the underwriters warrants to purchase 2,500 additional shares of Common Stock (equal to 3 % of the amount of shares issued as part of the exercised of the over-allotment option) at an exercise price of $ 168.75 per share. The exercise of the over-allotment option brought the total number of shares of Common Stock sold by the Company in connection with the February Offering to 638,889 shares and the total net proceeds received in connection with the February Offering to approximately $ 80.0 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses. Underwriter Termination On September 14, 2021, the Company entered into a letter agreement and waiver (the “Letter Agreement”), to amend the terms of its underwriting agreement with the representative of the underwriters in the IPO. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the representative agreed to waive the right of first refusal included in the underwriting agreement in consideration of a cash payment to the representative of $ 2.4 million and the right to participate as a co-manager with 10 % of the economics with respect to the Company’s next public offering of securities, payable in cash upon the closing of such offering. Private Placement On January 25, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Agreement”) with an institutional investor and other accredited investors for the sale by the Company of 245,035 shares (the “SA Shares”) of Common Stock, pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 157,064 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 301,575 shares of Common Stock (the “Common Warrants” and, collectively with the Pre-Funded Warrants, the “SA Warrants”), in a private placement offering. The combined purchase price for one share of Common Stock (or one Pre-Funded Warrant) and the accompanying fraction of a Common Warrant was $68.00 per share. Subject to certain ownership limitations, the SA Warrants are exercisable six months from issuance. Each Pre-Funded Warrant was exercisable into one share of Common Stock at a price per share of $0.001 (as adjusted from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof). Each Common Warrant is exercisable into one share of Common Stock at a price per share of $74.80 (as adjusted from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof) and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the initial exercise date. The institutional investor that received the Pre-Funded Warrants fully exercised such warrants in March 2022. Raymond Chang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Stuart Wilcox, who is currently the Chief Operating Officer, and at the time was a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, participated in the private placement on essentially the same terms as other investors, except for having a combined purchase price of $ 69.00 per share. The gross proceeds to the Company from the private placement were approximately $ 27.3 million, before deducting the placement agent’s fees and other offering expenses, and excluding the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the SA Warrants. Issuance of Common Stock in Connection with Acquisitions On October 1, 2021, the Company issued an aggregate of 66,640 shares of its Common Stock to the Precision and Cascade shareholders in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Precision and Cascade. On August 17, 2022, the Company issued an additional 8,704 shares of its Common Stock to the Precision and Cascade shareholders in connection with the finalization of the net working capital settlement. Refer to Note 8 – Business Combinations, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. On December 31, 2021, the Company issued an aggregate of 24,030 shares of its Common Stock to the PurePressure shareholders in connection with the Company’s acquisition of PurePressure. Refer to Note 8 – Business Combinations, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. On February 1, 2022, the Company issued an aggregate of 29,793 shares of its Common Stock to the Lab Society shareholders in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Lab Society. Refer to Note 8 – Business Combinations, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. 41 Note 13 — Stock-Based Compensation and Employee Benefit Plans 2022 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan On April 29, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors, and on June 8, 2022, the Company’s stockholders, adopted and approved the 2022 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”), which replaced the 2020 Stock Option Plan (the “2020 Plan”). The 2022 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation right awards, performance share awards, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, other stock-based awards and cash-based awards. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be reserved and available for grant and issuance under the 2022 Plan is 529,665 shares, which includes the 200,000 shares authorized under the 2022 Plan, plus the rollover of 329,665 issued and outstanding awards under the 2020 Plan. Shares will be deemed to have been issued under the 2022 Plan solely to the extent actually issued and delivered pursuant to an award. If any award granted under the 2020 Plan or the 2022 Plan expires, is canceled, or terminates unexercised or is forfeited, the number of shares subject thereto is again available for grant under the 2022 Plan. The 2022 Plan shall continue in effect, unless sooner terminated, until the tenth anniversary of the date on which it is adopted by the Board of Directors. Stock-based Compensation The Company’s stock option compensation expense was $ 1.6 million and $ 941 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $ 3.5 million and $ 4.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. There was $ 4.3 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested options granted under the Company’s options plans as of September 30, 2022. This stock option expense will be recognized through 2025. The fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model incorporates certain assumptions for inputs including a risk-free market interest rate, expected dividend yield of the underlying Common Stock, expected option life, and expected volatility in the market value of the underlying Common Stock. No stock options were granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The following table summarizes the Company’s assumptions used in the valuation of options granted during the year ended December 31, 2021: Volatility 40 % Risk-free interest rate 1.10 % – 1.63 % Dividend yield 0.00 % 0% Expected life (Years) 10 Forfeiture rate 0.00 % The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company’s stock options and warrants have characteristics different from those of its traded stock, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of such stock options. The risk-free interest rate is based upon quoted market yields for United States Treasury debt securities with a term similar to the expected term. The expected dividend yield is based upon the Company’s history of having never issued a dividend and management’s current expectation of future action surrounding dividends. The Company calculates the expected volatility of the stock price based on the corresponding volatility of the Company’s peer group stock price for a period consistent with the underlying instrument’s expected term. The expected lives for such grants were based on the simplified method for employees and directors. 42 In arriving at stock-based compensation expense, the Company estimates the number of stock-based awards that will be forfeited due to employee turnover. The Company’s forfeiture assumption is based primarily on its employee turnover historical experience. If the actual forfeiture rate is higher than the estimated forfeiture rate, then an adjustment will be made to increase the estimated forfeiture rate, which will result in a decrease to the expense recognized in the Company’s financial statements. If the actual forfeiture rate is lower than the estimated forfeiture rate, then an adjustment will be made to lower the estimated forfeiture rate, which will result in an increase to expense recognized in the Company’s financial statements. The expense the Company recognizes in future periods will be affected by changes in the estimated forfeiture rate and may differ significantly from amounts recognized in the current period. As of September 30, 2022, there were 64,688 shares of Common Stock available to be granted under the Company’s 2022 Plan. Stock Option Activity The following table presents option activity under the Company’s stock option plans for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021: (In thousands, except share and per share data) Number of Options Weighted- Average Exercise Price Aggregate Intrinsic Value Options outstanding at December 31, 2020 313,311 $ 35.10 $ — Granted 152,002 121.30 Exercised ( 65,763 ) 32.30 Forfeited ( 43,021 ) 39.80 Canceled ( 100 ) 44.30 Options outstanding at December 31, 2021 356,429 71.80 $ 12,572 Granted — — Exercised ( 851 ) 22.92 Forfeited ( 47,013 ) 51.11 Canceled ( 22,890 ) 92.93 Options outstanding at September 30, 2022 285,675 $ 73.66 $ — Options vested and exercisable as of September 30, 2022 218,172 $ 62.87 Options vested and expected to vest as of September 30, 2022 272,209 $ 71.93 Restricted Stock Units The following table presents restricted stock unit activity under the 2022 Plan for the nine months ended September 30, 2022: Number of Shares Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value Unvested at December 31, 2021 — $ — Granted 188,800 12.62 Vested ( 20,000 ) 19.20 Forfeited ( 9,500 ) 15.70 Unvested at September 30, 2022 159,300 $ 12.46 2022 Employee Stock Purchase Plan On April 29, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors, and on June 8, 2022, the Company’s stockholders, adopted and approved the 2022 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP"). The Company has initially reserved 50,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the ESPP. On September 30, 2022, 50,000 shares were available for future issuance. Under the ESPP, eligible employees are granted options to purchase shares of Common Stock at the lower of 85 % of the fair market value of the stock at the time of grant or 85 % of the fair market value at the time of exercise. Options to purchase shares are granted twice yearly on or about August 1 and February 1 and are exercisable on or about the succeeding January 31 and July 31, respectively, of each year. No participant may purchase more than $ 25 thousand worth of Common Stock annually. No Common Stock was granted under the 2022 ESPP during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. 43 Employee Benefit Plan The Company maintains an employee’s savings and retirement plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “401k Plan”). All full-time U.S. employees become eligible to participate in the 401k Plan. The Company’s contribution to the 401k Plan is discretionary. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not contribute to the 401k Plan. Note 14 — Stock Warrants The following table presents all warrant activity of the Company for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021: Number of Warrants Weighted- Average Exercise Price Warrants outstanding at December 31, 2020 82,817 $ 0.20 Granted 37,797 14.72 Exercised ( 93,430 ) 6.07 Warrants outstanding at December 31, 2021 27,184 0.20 Granted 2,569,518 21.35 Exercised ( 165,915 ) 0.01 Warrants outstanding at September 30, 2022 2,430,787 $ 22.57 The Company received proceeds from the exercise of warrants of less than $ 1 thousand and $ 4 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively , and $ 2 thousand and $ 9 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Note 15 — Income Taxes The Company’s effective income tax rate was 0.0 % for both the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The income tax benefit was $ 0 for both the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The Company’s effective income tax rate was 0.2 % and 0.0 % for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The income tax benefit was $ 262 thousand and $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The difference between the Company’s effective tax rates for the 2022 and 2021 periods and the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21 % was primarily due to a valuation allowance recorded against the Company’s deferred tax assets. The change in the income tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily due to a discrete income tax benefit of $ 200 thousand recorded during the first quarter of 2022, which is attributable to a non-recurring partial release of the Company's U.S. valuation allowance as a result of the Lab Society acquisition. Additionally, as a result of the goodwill impairment charge recorded during the second quarter of 2022, the Company recognized a small benefit of $ 62 thousand related to the reversal of its opening deferred tax liability on indefinite-lived assets. 44 Note 16 — Net Loss Per Share Net loss per share calculations for all periods have been adjusted to reflect the Company’s reverse stock splits. Net loss per share was calculated based on the weighted-average number of its Common Stock then outstanding. Basic net loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of Common Stock outstanding during the periods. Net loss per share, assuming dilution, is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive effect of all potentially dilutive securities, including Common Stock equivalents and convertible securities. Net loss per share, assuming dilution, is equal to basic net loss per share because the effect of dilutive securities outstanding during the periods, including options and warrants computed using the treasury stock method, is anti-dilutive. The components of basic and diluted net loss per share were as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, (In thousands, except share and per share data) 2022 2021 2022 2021 Numerator: Net loss attributable to Agrify Corporation $ ( 46,268 ) $ ( 9,758 ) $ ( 148,551 ) $ ( 19,204 ) Accrued dividend attributable to Preferred A Stockholders — — — ( 61 ) Net loss available for Common Stockholders $ ( 46,268 ) $ ( 9,758 ) $ ( 148,551 ) $ ( 19,265 ) Denominator: Weighted-average common shares outstanding – basic and diluted (1) 2,670,501 2,083,439 2,596,649 1,806,874 Net loss per share attributable to Common Stockholders – basic and diluted (1) $ ( 17.33 ) $ ( 4.68 ) $ ( 57.21 ) $ ( 10.66 ) (1) Periods presented have been adjusted to reflect the 1-for-1.581804 reverse stock split on January 12, 2021 and the 1-for-10 reverse stock split on October 18, 2022. Additional information regarding the reverse stock splits may be found in Note 1 – Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies , included elsewhere in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company’s potential dilutive securities, which include stock options and warrants, have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the effect would be to reduce the net loss per share. Therefore, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate both basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same. The Company excluded the following potential common shares equivalents presented based on amounts outstanding at each period end, from the computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the periods indicated because including them would have had an anti-dilutive effect: September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Shares subject to outstanding Common Stock options 285,675 356,429 Shares subject to unvested restricted stock units 159,300 — Shares subject to outstanding warrants 2,430,787 27,184 2,875,762 383,613 Note 17 — Commitments and Contingencies Legal Matters Cooper and Weinstein Matter On January 5, 2021, the Company received a demand letter from Nicholas Cooper and Richard Weinstein, (two of the Company’s former employees), and one of Mr. Cooper’s affiliated entities, asserting that Messrs. Cooper and Weinstein were entitled to compensation arising out of their employment by the Company, and their partial ownership of TriGrow Systems, LLC which had been acquired by the Company. The demand letter asserts that Messrs. Cooper and Weinstein are due certain sales commissions under their applicable bonus plan, equity earn-outs based on certain sales targets, and various equity purchases through the Company’s employee stock ownership plan. The demand letter also asserts various employment claims, including but not limited to, statutory wage withholding violations, wrongful termination, breach of contract, breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing, fraud in the inducement, promissory estoppel, minority shareholder oppression, breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and violations of state and federal securities laws. On January 19, 2021, Messrs. Cooper and Weinstein filed a lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington, alleging the same claims made in their demand letter based on the facts disclosed above. The plaintiffs are seeking relief in the form of monetary damages in an amount to be determined. Messrs. Cooper and Weinstein are also seeking relief in the form of reinstatement and Mr. Weinstein is seeking rescission of his previously executed Release of Claims Agreement. On March 10, 2021, the Company moved to dismiss all Messrs. Cooper and Weinstein’s claims, asserting that the claims failed to allege legal grounds for relief. On May 12, 2021, a Magistrate issued a preliminary Report and Recommendation, which recommended dismissal of certain of Messrs. Cooper and Weinstein’s claims, and recommended others for additional factual discovery. On July 27, 2021, a District Judge entered an order partially adopting the Report and Recommendation, dismissing one claim with prejudice, dismissing a second claim with leave to amend, and permitting the remaining claims to proceed. 45 Additionally, on July 29, 2021, the Company filed a separate arbitration in Boston, Massachusetts against Messrs. Cooper and Weinstein, in which the Company alleges that Messrs. Cooper and Weinstein were liable for certain conduct during the time they were TriGrow employees, including breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, usurpation of corporate opportunity, conversion, fraudulent concealment, and false representation. Also on July 29, 2021, the Company submitted a claim for indemnification to certain legacy TriGrow Systems, LLC. shareholders. The claim for indemnification relates to conduct by Messrs. Cooper and Weinstein during the time they were TriGrow employees. During the third quarter of 2022, the Company and Messrs. Cooper and Weinstein settled all claims and potential claims between themselves and any affiliated entities by the Company to Messrs. Cooper and Weinstein, and a related entity for approximately $ 800 thousand. United States Customs Seizure Matter On June 28, 2022, the Company was notified by the United States Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) that they seized 123 cartons of horticulture grow lights appraised at approximately $ 623 thousand at the Port of Savannah, Georgia based on CBP’s interpretation of certain importation laws which prohibit the importation of certain goods that are subject to health and safety legal restrictions, including a prohibition on the importation of drug paraphernalia, in accordance with 21 U.S.C. § 863(a). The Company is currently disputing the seizure. The Company does not believe these claims have any merit and intends to vigorously defend its position. Commitments Supply Agreement with Mack Molding Co. In December 2020, the Company entered into a five-year supply agreement with Mack Molding Co. (“Mack”) pursuant to which Mack will become a key supplier of VFUs. In February 2021, the Company placed a purchase order with Mack amounting to approximately $ 5.2 million towards the initial production of VFUs during 2021. In September 2021, the Company increased the purchase order with Mack to approximately $ 11.5 million towards production of VFUs during 2021 and 2022. The Company believes the supply agreement with Mack will provide the Company with increased scaling capabilities and the ability to meet the potential future demand of its customers more efficiently. The supply agreement contemplates that, following an introductory period, the Company will negotiate a minimum percentage of the VFU requirements that the Company will purchase from Mack each year based on the agreed-upon pricing formula. The introductory period is not time-based but rather refers to the production of an initial number of units after which the parties have rights to adjust pricing and negotiate a certain minimum requirements percentage. The Company believes this approach will result in both parties making a more informed decision with respect to the pricing and other terms of the supply agreement with Mack. Distribution Agreements with Related Party On September 7, 2019, the Company entered into a distribution agreement with Bluezone Products, Inc. (“Bluezone”) for distribution rights to the Bluezone products with certain exclusivity rights. The agreement requires minimum purchases amounting to $ 480 thousand and $ 600 thousand for the first and second contract anniversary years. The agreement auto-renews for successive one-year periods unless earlier terminated. In March 2021, the Company notified Bluezone of the non-renewal of the agreement which means it ended on May 31, 2021. The Company exceeded the minimum purchase amount for the first year and purchased approximately $ 309 thousand of the committed $ 660 thousand second-year purchases through December 31, 2021. Bluezone is a related party to the Company. Committed Purchase Agreement with Related Party – Greenstone On December 29, 2021, Greenstone purchased 239 VFUs from the Company of which 60 VFUs were already in Greenstone’s possession under a lease agreement. Under the lease agreement, Greenstone owed the Company a production service fee of $ 300 per pound of flower produced and contained an option to purchase the equipment within the lease agreement. The term of this agreement was for ten years , but it was terminated upon signing the purchase agreement for the 239 VFUs. There is no remaining obligation under the lease agreement. The remaining 179 VFUs were shipped to the Greenstone storage facility on December 30, 2021 and December 31, 2021. Greenstone is a related party to the Company. Additional information regarding recent developments with Greenstone may be found in Note 5 – Loan Receivable, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Committed Purchase Agreement with Related Party – Ora Pharm In June 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with Ora Pharm (“Ora”) pursuant to which Ora will purchase approximately $ 1.6 million in equipment from the Company, and Ora may purchase software services from the Company in the future. Mr. Wilcox is the Chairman of Ora. Mr. Wilcox has not had an interest in any transaction since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year, or any currently proposed transaction. There are no family relationships among any of the Company’s directors or executive officers and Mr. Wilcox. 46 Other Commitments and Contingencies The Company is potentially subject to claims related to various non-income taxes (such as sales, value-added, consumption, and similar taxes) from various tax authorities, including in jurisdictions in which the Company already collects and remits such taxes. If the relevant taxing authorities successfully pursue these claims, the Company could be subject to additional tax liabilities. Refer to Note 9 – Debt, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for details of the Company’s future minimum debt payments. Refer to Note 10 – Leases, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for details of the Company’s future minimum lease payments under operating and financing lease liabilities. Refer to Note 15 – Income Taxes, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for information regarding income tax contingencies. Note 18 — Related Parties Some of the officers and directors of the Company are involved in other business activities and may, in the future, become involved in other business opportunities that become available. The following table describes the net purchasing (sales) activity with entities identified as related parties to the Company: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, (In thousands) 2022 2021 2022 2021 Bluezone $ — $ 217 $ 5 $ 310 4D Bios (1) — 864 — 1,311 Enzo — 40 — 40 Cannae Policy Group — — 25 — Topline Performance Group 1 — 71 — NEIA — ( 3,217 ) ( 1,763 ) ( 19,572 ) Greenstone 212 ( 1,998 ) 392 ( 1,998 ) Valiant Americas, LLC 1,315 606 11,120 2,323 Living Greens Farm — — — ( 58 ) (1) Purchases from 4D for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 include $ 384 thousand for a down payment on inventory orders. The following table summarizes net related party receivable (payable) as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021: (In thousands) September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Cannae Policy Group $ — $ ( 8 ) Cannaquip — ( 21 ) Greenstone (net of allowance for doubtful accounts of $ 7,079 and $ 0 at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively) (1) 5,308 11,177 Living Greens Farm (2) — 34 NEIA — 3,500 Valiant Americas, LLC ( 599 ) ( 922 ) Topline Performance Group ( 1 ) — (1) The Greenstone allowance for doubtful accounts balance consisted of capital advances, accrued interest and VFUs sales. Additional information regarding recent developments with Greenstone may be found in Note 5 – Loan Receivable, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. (2) The balance was fully reserved at September 30, 2022 due to an ongoing dispute with the customer. 47 Note 19 — Subsequent Events Bud & Mary’s Litigation On September 15, 2022, the Company provided a notice of default to Bud & Mary’s and certain related parties notifying such parties that Bud & Mary’s was in default of its obligations under the Bud & Mary TTK Agreement. On October 5, 2022, Bud & Mary’s filed a complaint in the Superior Court of Massachusetts in Suffolk County naming the Company as defendant. Bud & Mary’s is seeking, among other relief, monetary damages in connection with alleged unfair or deceptive trade practices, breach of contract and conversion arising from the Agreement. While the Company believes the claim is without merit and will continue to vigorously defend itself against Bud & Mary’s allegations, litigation is inherently unpredictable and there can be no assurance that the Company will prevail in this matter. During the third quarter of 2022, the Company deemed it necessary to fully reserve for the outstanding $ 14.7 million note receivable balance outstanding due to the current litigation and the uncertainty of the customer’s ability to repay the outstanding balance. The $14.7 million represents the amount of the contingent loss that the Company has determined to be reasonably possible and estimable. The actual cost of resolving this matter may be higher or lower than the amount the Company has reserved. In addition, $ 5.3 million of the notes receivable balance for work performed during the third quarter of 2022 has been recorded as an unbilled note receivable and deferred the revenue to a future period. The Company has recognized the expenses associated with the work completed in the current period due to the uncertainty of the Company’s ability to recover the funds owed by the customer and its obligations to the vendors that have performed this work. The Company determined that it will only recognize unbilled notes receivable revenue if cash is collected from the customer in a future period. Approval of Issuance of Shares Upon Exercise of Warrants On October 14, 2022, the Company received approval for the issuance of up to 2,110,875 shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the SPA Warrant and Note Exchange Warrant in connection with the issuance of a senior secured note and the exchange of previously issued warrants in August 2022, and the reduction of the exercise price of certain of those warrants under certain circumstances, was approved. Additional information regarding the Warrant Liabilities may be found in Note 9 – Debt, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Reverse Stock Split On October 18, 2022, the Company effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its Common Stock. All owners of record as of October 18, 2022 received one issued and outstanding share of the Company’s Common Stock in exchange for ten outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Additional information regarding the reverse stock splits may be found in Note 1 – Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies , included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. At The Marketing Offering In October 2022, the Company entered into the ATM Program with the Agent. The ATM Program allows the Company to sell shares of Common Stock pursuant to specific parameters defined by the Company as well as those defined by the SEC and the ATM Program agreement. Subsequent to the quarter ended September 30, 2022, as of November 7, 2022, the Company sold 6,132,565 shares of Common Stock, under the ATM at an average price of $ 2.54 per share, resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of $ 15.6 million, and net proceeds of $ 15.1 million after commissions and fees to the Agent totaling $ 468 thousand. $ 3.1 million of the proceeds under the ATM Program were used to repay amounts due to the Investor under the Exchange Note. The ATM allows for quick and agile sales of Common Stock to interested investors and provides an opportunity to raise additional capital for working capital requirements or to fund strategic opportunities that may present themselves from time to time. The Company has used, and intends to continue to use, the net proceeds generated from the ATM Program for working capital and general corporate purposes, including repayment of indebtedness, funding its transformation initiatives and product category expansion efforts and capital expenditures. Nasdaq Deficiency Notice On October 4, 2022, the Company received a deficiency letter (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, for the last 30 consecutive business days, the bid price for the Company’s Common Stock had closed below $1.00 per share, which is the minimum closing price required to maintain a continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Requirement”). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company had 180 calendar days to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement. To regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement, the closing bid price of the Company’s Common Stock must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days during this 180-day compliance period, unless the Staff exercises its discretion to extend the minimum trading day period pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(G). On October 28, 2022, the Staff notified the Company that the closing bid price for its Common Stock was more than $1.00 for 10 consecutive trading days, and that the Company therefore regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement. Agrify-Valiant On October 27, 2022, the Company provided notice to Valiant-America, LLC that the Company intended to begin the winding up of Agrify-Valiant. 48 Item 2.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this quarterly report. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. We strongly encourage investors to carefully read the factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for a description of certain risks that could, among other things, cause actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements. We assume no responsibility to update the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following should also be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and notes thereto that appear elsewhere in this report. Except as otherwise indicated herein or as the context otherwise requires, references in this quarterly report to “we,” “us,” “our,” “Company,” and “Agrify” refer to Agrify Corporation, a Nevada corporation. Overview We are one of the most innovative providers of advanced cultivation and extraction solutions for the cannabis industry, bringing data, science, and technology to the forefront of the market. Our proprietary micro-environment-controlled Agrify Vertical Farming Units (or “VFUs”) enable cultivators to produce the highest quality products with what we believe to be an unmatched consistency, yield, and Return on Investment at scale. Our comprehensive extraction product line, which includes hydrocarbon, ethanol, solventless, post-processing, and lab equipment, empowers producers to maximize the quantity and quality of extract required for premium concentrates. We believe we are the only company with an automated and fully integrated grow solution in the industry. Our cultivation and extraction solutions seamlessly combine our integrated hardware and software offerings with a broad range of associated services including consulting, engineering, and construction and are designed to deliver the most complete commercial indoor farming solution available from a single provider. The totality of our product offerings and service capabilities forms an unrivaled ecosystem in what has historically been a highly fragmented market. As a result, we believe we are well situated to create a dominant market position in the indoor agriculture sector. Agrify Corporation was incorporated in the state of Nevada on June 6, 2016, originally incorporated as Agrinamics, Inc. (or “Agrinamics”). On September 16, 2019, Agrinamics amended its articles of incorporation to reflect a name change to Agrify Corporation. Our corporate headquarters are located in Billerica, Massachusetts. We also lease properties located within various geographic regions in which we conduct business, including Colorado, Georgia, Massachusetts, and Michigan. 49 Reverse Stock Split On January 12, 2021, we effected a 1-for-1.581804 reverse stock split on our Common Stock. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the reverse stock split for all periods presented, unless otherwise indicated. On October 18, 2022, we effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split on our Common Stock. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the reverse stock split for all periods presented, unless otherwise indicated. Recent Business Developments Private Placement On January 25, 2022, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Agreement”) with an institutional investor and other accredited investors for the sale by us of (i) 245,035 shares (the “SA Shares”) of the our Common Stock, (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 157,064 shares of Common Stock and (iii) warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 301,575 shares of Common Stock (the “Common Warrants” and, collectively with the Pre-Funded Warrants, the “SA Warrants”), in a private placement offering. The combined purchase price for one share of Common Stock (or one Pre-Funded Warrant) and the accompanying fraction of a Common Warrant was $68.00 per share. Subject to certain ownership limitations, the SA Warrants are exercisable six months from issuance. Each Pre-Funded Warrant is exercisable into one share of Common Stock at a price per share of $0.001 (as adjusted from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof). Each Common Warrant is exercisable into one share of Common Stock at a price per share of $74.80 (as adjusted from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof) and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the initial exercise date. The institutional investor that received the Pre-Funded Warrants fully exercised such warrants in March 2022. Raymond Chang, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Stuart Wilcox, who is currently our Chief Operating Officer, and at the time was a member of our Board of Directors, participated in the private placement on essentially the same terms as other investors, except for having a combined purchase price of $69.00 per share. The gross proceeds to us from the private placement were approximately $27.3 million, before deducting the placement agent’s fees and other offering expenses, and excluding the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the SA Warrants. Acquisition of Lab Society On February 1, 2022, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with LS Holdings Corp. (“Lab Society”), Lab Society NewCo, LLC, a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of us (“Merger Sub”), Michael S. Maibach Jr. as the Owner Representative thereunder, and each of the shareholders of Lab Society (collectively, the “Owners”), pursuant to which we agreed to acquire Lab Society. Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, we consummated the merger of Lab Society with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub surviving such merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of us (the “Lab Society Acquisition”). The aggregate consideration for the Lab Society Acquisition consisted of: $4.0 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments for working capital, cash and indebtedness of Lab Society at closing; 42,561 shares of Common Stock (the “Buyer Shares”); and the Earn-out Consideration (as defined below), to the extent earned. We withheld 12,768 of the Buyer Shares issuable to the Owners (the “Holdback Lab Buyer Shares”) for the purpose of securing any post-closing adjustment owed to us and any claim for indemnification or payment of damages to which we may be entitled under the Merger Agreement. During the third quarter of 2022, 2,785 of the Holdback Lab Buyer Shares were forfeited after the finalization of the net working capital settlement. The remaining 9,983 Holdback Lab Buyer Shares will be released following the twelve-month anniversary of the Closing Date in accordance with and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement. Additional information regarding our contingent consideration arrangements may be found in Note 4 – Fair Value Measures, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. 50 The Merger Agreement includes customary post-closing adjustments, representations and warranties and covenants of the parties. The Owners may become entitled to additional consideration with a value of up to $3.5 million based on the eligible net revenues achieved by the Lab Society business during the fiscal years ending December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2023, of which 50% will be payable in cash and the remaining 50% will be payable by issuing shares of Common Stock. Based upon the combined first and second-quarter actual revenue performance, Lab Society’s revenue trend is significantly below the originally estimated revenue trends incorporated into our original fair value estimates at the time of the acquisition. We have concluded Lab Society will not achieve any contingent earn-out consideration in connection with its first earn-out period. Accordingly, we reversed the current accrued contingent consideration liability associated with Lab Society’s first earn-out period as of September 30, 2022. The reversal of this liability of approximately $1.0 million, as required by ASC Topic 805 Business Combination (“ASC805”), was recorded as a reduction in operating expenses during the second quarter of 2022. The purchase price allocation for the business combination has been prepared on a preliminary basis and changes to those allocations may occur as additional information becomes available during the respective measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The estimated fair value at acquisition is $7.9 million and may be adjusted upon further review of the values assigned to identifiable intangible assets and goodwill.   Our initial fair value estimates related to the various identified intangible assets were determined under various valuation approaches including the Income Approach, Relief-from-Royalty Method, and Discounted Cash Flow Method. These valuation methods require management to project revenues, operating expenses, working capital investment, capital spending and cash flows for the reporting unit over a multiyear period, as well as determine the weighted-average cost of capital to be used as a discount rate. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, we identified an impairment-triggering event associated with both a sustained decline in our stock price and associated market capitalization, as well as a second-quarter slowdown in the cannabis industry as a whole. Due to these factors, we deemed that there was an impairment to the carrying value of its long-lived assets and accordingly performed interim testing as of June 30, 2022. Based on its interim testing, we noted that the entire carrying value of its goodwill and intangible assets should be impaired. Additional information regarding our interim testing on goodwill and intangible assets may be found in Note 7 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Securities Purchase Agreement On March 14, 2022, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with an accredited investor (the “Investor”), we agreed to issue and sell to the Investor, in a private placement transaction, in exchange for the payment by the Investor of $65 million, less applicable expenses as set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement, a senior secured promissory note in an aggregate principal amount of $65 million (the “SPA Note”), and a warrant (the “SPA Warrant”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 688,111 shares of Common Stock. Securities Exchange Agreement On August 18, 2022, we reached an agreement with its Investor to amend its existing SPA Note and entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, we partially paid $35.2 million under the SPA Note and exchanged the remaining balance of the SPA Note for a new senior secured note (the “Exchange Note”) with an aggregate original principal amount of $35.0 million and a new warrant to purchase 1,422,764 shares of Common Stock (the “Note Exchange Warrant”). Additionally, we exchanged the SPA Warrant for a new warrant for the same number of underlying shares but with a reduced exercise price (the “Modified Warrant” and, collectively with the Note Exchange Warrant, the “Warrant Liabilities”). Additional information regarding our Warrant Liabilities may be found in Note 1 – Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies and Note 4 – Fair Value Measures, included elsewhere in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. 51 The Exchange Note is a senior secured obligation of us and ranks senior to all indebtedness of us. The Exchange Note will mature on the three-year anniversary of its issuance (the “Maturity Date”) and contains a 9.0% annualized interest rate, with interest to be paid monthly, in cash, beginning September 1, 2022. The principal amount of the Exchange Note will be payable on the Maturity Date, provided that the Investor will be entitled to a cash sweep of 20% of the proceeds received by us in connection with any equity financing, which will reduce the outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note. At any time, we may prepay all of the Exchange Note by redemption at a price equal to 102.5% of the then-outstanding principal amount under the Note plus accrued but unpaid interest. The Investor will also have the option of requiring us to redeem the Exchange Note on the one-year or two-year anniversaries of issuance at a price equal to the then-outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note plus accrued but unpaid interest, or if we undergo a fundamental change at a price equal to 102.5% of the then-outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note plus accrued but unpaid interest. The Exchange Note imposes certain customary affirmative and negative covenants upon us, as well as covenants that restrict us and our subsidiaries from incurring any additional indebtedness or suffering any liens, subject to specified exceptions, restrict the ability of us and our subsidiaries from making certain investments, subject to specified exceptions, restrict the declaration of any dividends or other distributions, subject to specified exceptions, requires us not to exceed maximum levels of allowable cash spend while the Exchange Note is outstanding, and requires us to maintain minimum amounts of cash on hand. If an event of default under the Exchange Note occurs, the Investor can elect to redeem the Exchange Note for cash equal to 115% of the then-outstanding principal amount of the Note (or such lesser principal amount accelerated by the Investor), plus accrued and unpaid interest, including default interest, which accrues at a rate per year equal to 15% from the date of a default or event of default. As of September 30, 2022, we are in compliance with the financial debt covenants associated with our Exchange Note. Until the date the Exchange Note is fully repaid, the Investor has, subject to certain exceptions, the right to participate for up to 30% of any offering of debt, equity (other than an offering of solely Common Stock), or equity-linked securities, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock or other instrument or security, of us or our subsidiaries. The Modified Warrant has an exercise price of $21.50 per share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends and similar transactions, will be exercisable on and after the six-month anniversary of issuance, has a term of five and one-half years from the date of issuance and will be exercisable on a cash basis, unless there is not an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Modified Warrant (the “Modified Warrant Shares”), in which case the Modified Warrant will also be exercisable on a cashless exercise basis at the Investor’s election. The Note Exchange Warrant has an exercise price of $12.30 per share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends and similar transactions, was exercisable upon issuance, and has a term of five and one-half years from the date of issuance and is exercisable on a cash basis, unless there is not an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant (the “Note Exchange Warrant Shares” and, together with the Modified Warrant Shares, the “Exchange Warrant Shares”), in which case the Note Exchange Warrant will also be exercisable on a cashless exercise basis at the Investor’s election. Until we complete a qualified equity financing of at least $15.0 million, which requirement was satisfied with sales under the ATM Program, the Note Exchange Warrant’s exercise price would have been reduced to the extent we issue securities for a lower purchase price. The Note Exchange Warrant also prohibited us, until following the completion of such qualified equity financing, from issuing warrants with more favorable or preferential terms and/or provisions. The Warrant Liabilities will each provide that in no event will the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of such warrant result in the Investor’s beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% of our shares of Common Stock outstanding at the time of exercise (which percentage may be decreased or increased by the Investor, but to no greater than 9.99%, and provided that any increase above 4.99% will not be effective until the sixty-first day after notice of such request by the Investor to increase its beneficial ownership limit has been delivered to us). Additionally, the Warrant Liabilities could not be exercised for more than an aggregate of 530,858 shares of Common Stock unless and until shareholder approval is obtained, which approval was obtained on October 14, 2022. 52 Impact of coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”) The extensive impact of the pandemic caused by COVID-19 has resulted and will likely continue to result in significant disruptions to the global economy, as well as businesses and capital markets around the world. In an effort to halt the outbreak of COVID-19, a number of countries, states, counties, and other jurisdictions have imposed, and may impose in the future, various measures, including but not limited to, voluntary and mandatory quarantines, stay-at-home orders, travel restrictions, limitations on gatherings of people, reduced operations, and extended closures of businesses. To date, although all of our operations are functioning, COVID-19 has continued to cause some disruptions to our business, such as some temporary delays in the delivery of our inventory. Although the ability of our suppliers to timely ship their goods has affected some of our deliveries, currently the difficulties experienced by our suppliers have not yet materially impacted our ability to deliver products to our customers. However, if this continues, it may negatively affect any inventory we may have and more significantly delay the delivery of merchandise to our customers, which in turn will adversely affect our revenues and results of operations. The extent to which COVID-19 and the related global economic crisis, affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and any recovery period, future actions taken by governmental authorities, central banks and other third parties (including new financial regulation and other regulatory reform) in response to the pandemic, and the effects on our produce, clients, vendors and employees. We continue to service our customers amid uncertainty and disruption linked to COVID-19 and we are actively managing our business to respond to its impact. Nasdaq Deficiency Notice On October 4, 2022, we received a deficiency letter (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying us that, for the last 30 consecutive business days, the bid price for our Common Stock had closed below $1.00 per share, which is the minimum closing price required to maintain continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Requirement”). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we had 180 calendar days to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement. To regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement, the closing bid price of our Common Stock must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days during this 180-day compliance period, unless the Staff exercises its discretion to extend the minimum trading day period pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(G). On October 28, 2022, the Staff notified us that the closing bid price of our Common Stock was more than $1.00 for 10 consecutive trading days, and that we therefore regained compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include assumptions about collection of accounts and notes receivable, the valuation and recognition of stock-based compensation expense, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and the useful life of fixed assets and intangible assets. Financial Overview Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial position and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimate, which include estimates related to accruals, stock-based compensation expense, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. We base our estimates on historical experience and other market-specific or other relevant assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates or assumptions. Revenue Recognition Overview We generate revenue from the following sources: (1) equipment sales, (2) providing services and (3) construction contracts. 53 In accordance with ASC 606 “Revenue Recognition”, we recognize revenue from contracts with customers using a five-step model, which is described below: ● identify the customer contract; ● identify performance obligations that are distinct; ● determine the transaction price; ● allocate the transaction price to the distinct performance obligations; and ● recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied. Identify the customer contract A customer contract is generally identified when there is approval and commitment from both us and its customer, the rights have been identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability, and consideration is probable. Specifically, we obtain written/electronic signatures on contracts and a purchase order, if said purchase orders are issued in the normal course of business by the customer. Identify performance obligations that are distinct A performance obligation is a promise by us to provide a distinct good or service or a series of distinct goods or services. A good or service that is promised to a customer is distinct if the customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer, and our promise to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. Determine the transaction price The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer, excluding sales taxes that are collected on behalf of government agencies. Allocate the transaction price to distinct performance obligations The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the relative standalone selling prices (“SSP”) of the goods or services being provided to the customer. Our contracts typically contain multiple performance obligations, for which we account for individual performance obligations separately, if they are distinct. The standalone selling price reflects the price we would charge for a specific piece of equipment or service if it was sold separately in similar circumstances and to similar customers. Recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied Revenue is recognized when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of a promised product or service to a customer. Significant Judgments We enter into contracts that may include various combinations of equipment, services and construction, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. Contracts with customers often include promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together may require significant judgment. Once we determine the performance obligations, it determines the transaction price, which includes estimating the amount of variable consideration to be included in the transaction price, if any. We then allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract based on the SSP. The corresponding revenue is recognized as the related performance obligations are satisfied. 54 Judgment is required to determine the SSP for each distinct performance obligation. We determine SSP based on the price at which the performance obligation is sold separately and the methods of estimating SSP under the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606-10-32-33. If the SSP is not observable through past transactions, we estimate the SSP, considering available information such as market conditions, expected margins, and internally approved pricing guidelines related to the performance obligations. We license our software as a SaaS type subscription license, whereby the customer only has a right to access the software over a specified time period. The full value of the contract is recognized ratably over the contractual term of the SaaS subscription, adjusted monthly if tiered pricing is relevant. We typically satisfy our performance obligations for equipment sales when equipment is made available for shipment to the customer; for services sales as services are rendered to the customer and for construction contracts both as services are rendered and when contract is completed. We utilize the cost-plus margin method to determine the SSP for equipment and build-out services. This method is based on the cost of the services from third parties, plus a reasonable markup that we believe is reflective of a market-based reseller margin. We determine the SSP for services in time and materials contracts by observable prices in standalone services arrangements. We estimate variable consideration in the form of royalties, revenue share, monthly fees, and service credits are estimated at contract inception and updated at the end of each reporting period if additional information becomes available. Variable consideration is typically not subject to constraint. Changes to variable consideration were not material for the periods presented. If a contract has payment terms that differ from the timing of revenue recognition, we will assess whether the transaction price for those contracts includes a significant financing component. We have elected the practical expedient that permits an entity to not adjust for the effects of a significant financing component if we expect that at the contract inception, the period between when the entity transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service, will be one year or less. For those contracts in which the period exceeds the one-year threshold, this assessment, as well as the quantitative estimate of the financing component and its relative significance, requires judgment. Accordingly, we impute interest on such contracts at an agreed-upon interest rate and will present the financing components separately as financial income. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we did not have any such financial income. Payment terms with customers typically require payment 30 days from the invoice date. Our agreements with customers do not provide for any refunds for services or products and therefore no specific reserve for such is maintained. In the infrequent instances where customers raise a concern over delivered products or services, we have endeavored to remedy the concern and all costs related to such matters have been insignificant in all periods presented. We have elected to treat shipping and handling activities after the customer obtains control of the goods as a fulfillment cost and not as a promised good or service. Accordingly, we will accrue all fulfillment costs related to the shipping and handling of consumer goods at the time of shipment. We have payment terms with its customers of one year or less and has elected the practical expedient applicable to such contracts not to consider the time value of money. Sales, value add, and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. We receive payment from customers based on specified terms that are generally less than 30 days from the satisfaction of performance obligations. There are no contract assets related to performance under the contract. The difference in the opening and closing balances of our deferred revenue primarily results from the timing difference between our performance and the customer’s payment. We fulfill obligations under a contract with a customer by transferring products and services in exchange for consideration from the customer. Accounts receivables are recorded when the customer has been billed or the right to consideration is unconditional. We recognize deferred revenue when consideration has been received or an amount of consideration is due from the customer, and we have a future obligation to transfer certain proprietary products. 55 In accordance with ASC 606-10-50-13, we are required to include disclosure on its remaining performance obligations as of the end of the current reporting period. Due to the nature of our contracts, these reporting requirements are not applicable. The majority of our remaining contracts meet certain exemptions as defined in ASC 606-10-50-14 through 606-10-50-14A, including (i) performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less and (ii) the right to invoice practical expedient. We generally provide a one-year warranty on our products for materials and workmanship but may provide multiple-year warranties as negotiated, and will pass on the warranties from its vendors, if any, which generally covers this one-year period. In accordance with ASC 450-20-25, we accrue for product warranties when the loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. The reserve for warranty returns is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. Accounting for Business Combinations We allocated the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, including in-process research and development assets, and liabilities assumed, based upon their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. These fair values are typically estimated with assistance from independent valuation specialists. The purchase price allocation process requires us to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date with respect to intangible assets, contractual support obligations assumed, contingent consideration arrangements, and pre-acquisition contingencies. Although we believe the assumptions and estimates we have made in the past have been reasonable and appropriate, they are based in part on historical experience and information obtained from the management of the acquired companies and are inherently uncertain. Examples of critical estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets we have acquired or may acquire in the future include but are not limited to: ● future expected cash flows from software license sales, support agreements, consulting contracts, other customer contracts, and acquired developed technologies; ● expected costs to develop in-process research and development into commercially viable products and estimated cash flows from the projects when completed; ● the acquired company’s brand and competitive position, as well as assumptions about the period of time the acquired brand will continue to be used in the combined company’s product portfolio; ● cost of capital and discount rates; and ● estimating the useful lives of acquired assets as well as the pattern or manner in which the assets will amortize. The fair value estimates related to the various identified intangible assets were determined under various valuation approaches including the Income Approach, Relief-from-Royalty Method, and Discounted Cash Flow Method. These valuation methods require management to project revenues, operating expenses, working capital investment, capital spending and cash flows for the reporting unit over a multiyear period, as well as determine the weighted-average cost of capital to be used as a discount rate. Goodwill and Intangible Assets Amortization of acquired intangible assets is the result of the acquisition of TriGrow Systems, LLC (“TriGrow”), which occurred in 2020, the acquisition of Precision Extraction NewCo, LLC (“Precision”) and Cascade Sciences, LLC (“Cascade”) which occurred in 2021, the acquisition of PurePressure, LLC (“PurePressure”), which also occurred in 2021, and the acquisition of Lab Society, which occurred in 2022. As a result of these transactions, customer relationships, acquired developed technology, non-compete agreements and trade names were identified as intangible assets, and are amortized over their estimated useful lives. 56 We recognize the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment annually on December 2 or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the goodwill may not be recoverable. We have determined it is a single reporting unit for the purpose of conducting the goodwill impairment assessment. A goodwill impairment charge is recorded if the amount by which our carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Factors that could lead to a future impairment include material uncertainties such as a significant reduction in projected revenues, a deterioration of projected financial performance, future acquisitions and/or mergers, and a decline in our market value as a result of a significant decline in our stock price. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, we identified an impairment-triggering event associated with both a sustained decline in our stock price and associated market capitalization, as well as a second-quarter slowdown in the cannabis industry as a whole. Due to these factors, we deemed that there was an impairment to the carrying value of its long-lived assets and accordingly performed interim testing as of June 30, 2022. Based on its interim testing, we noted that the entire carrying value of its goodwill and intangible assets should be impaired. Additional information regarding our interim testing on goodwill and intangible assets may be found in Note 7 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Capitalization of Internal Software Development Costs We capitalize on certain software engineering efforts related to the continued development of Agrify Insights™ cultivation software under ASC 985-20. Costs incurred during the application development phase are only capitalized once technical feasibility has been established and the work performed will result in new or additional functionality. The types of costs capitalized during the application development phase include employee compensation, as well as consulting fees for third-party software developers working on these projects. Costs related to the research and development are expensed as incurred until technical feasibility is established as well as post-implementation activities. Internal-use software is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset, which ranges from two to five years. Income Taxes We account for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized. We follow the provisions of ASC 740-10-25-5, “Basic Recognition Threshold.” When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10-25-6, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the consolidated financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. We believe our tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, we have not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. We recognize the benefit of a tax position when it is effectively settled. ASC 740-10-25-10, “Basic Recognition Threshold” provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits. ASC 740-10-25-10 clarifies that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion of an examination by a taxing authority. For tax positions considered effectively settled, we recognize the full amount of the tax benefit. Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation We follow the provisions of ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation.” ASC Topic 718 establishes standards surrounding the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. ASC Topic 718 focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions, such as options issued under our Stock Option Plans. The fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model incorporates certain assumptions for inputs including a risk-free market interest rate, expected dividend yield of the underlying Common Stock, expected option life, and expected volatility in the market value of the underlying Common Stock. 57 The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because our stock options and warrants have characteristics different from those of our traded stock, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of such stock options. The risk-free interest rate is based upon quoted market yields for United States Treasury debt securities with a term similar to the expected term. The expected dividend yield is based upon our history of having never issued a dividend and management’s current expectation of future action surrounding dividends. We calculate the expected volatility of the stock price based on the corresponding volatility of our peer group stock price for a period consistent with the underlying instrument’s expected term. The expected lives for such grants were based on the simplified method for employees and directors. In arriving at stock-based compensation expense, we estimate the number of stock-based awards that will be forfeited due to employee turnover. Our forfeiture assumption is based primarily on its turn-over historical experience. If the actual forfeiture rate is higher than the estimated forfeiture rate, then an adjustment will be made to increase the estimated forfeiture rate, which will result in a decrease to the expense recognized in our financial statements. If the actual forfeiture rate is lower than the estimated forfeiture rate, then an adjustment will be made to lower the estimated forfeiture rate, which will result in an increase to expense recognized in our financial statements. The expense we recognize in future periods will be affected by changes in the estimated forfeiture rate and may differ significantly from amounts recognized in the current period. It is important that the discussion of our operating results that follows be read in conjunction with the critical accounting policies disclosed above. Results of Operations We have incurred recurring losses to date. Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation. We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long-term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities. Comparison of the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 The following table summarizes our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, (In thousands, except share and per share data) 2022 2021 2022 2021 Revenue $ 7,019 $ 15,751 $ 52,369 $ 34,584 Cost of goods sold 11,135 16,131 50,703 34,977 Gross (loss) profit (4,116 ) (380 ) 1,666 (393 ) General and administrative 24,126 7,705 53,263 16,562 Selling and marketing 2,160 890 6,582 2,288 Research and development 1,747 827 6,269 2,483 Change in contingent consideration (602 ) — (1,509 ) — Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets — — 69,904 — Total operating expenses 27,431 9,422 134,509 21,333 Loss from operations (31,547 ) (9,802 ) (132,843 ) (21,726 ) Interest (expense) income, net (3,979 ) 45 (5,224 ) 68 Other income (expense) 1,506 (15 ) 1,506 (78 ) Change in fair value of warrant liability 5,686 — 5,686 — (Loss) gain on extinguishment of notes payable (17,933 ) — (17,933 ) 2,685 Other (expense) income, net (14,720 ) 30 (15,965 ) 2,675 Net loss before income taxes (46,267 ) (9,772 ) (148,808 ) (19,051 ) Income tax benefit — — (262 ) — Net loss (46,267 ) (9,772 ) (148,546 ) (19,051 ) Income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests 1 (14 ) 5 153 Net loss attributable to Agrify Corporation $ (46,268 ) $ (9,758 ) $ (148,551 ) $ (19,204 ) 58 Revenue Our goal is to provide our customers with a variety of products to address their entire indoor agriculture needs. Our core product offering includes our VFUs and Agrify Integrated Grow Racks with our Agrify Insights™ cultivation software, which are supplemented with environmental control products, grow lights, facility build-out services and extraction equipment. We continue to monitor and address the COVID-19 pandemic impacts on our supply chain. Although the availability of various products is dependent on our suppliers, their locations, and the extent to which they are impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, we are proactively working with manufacturers to meet the needs of our customers during the pandemic. Product shortages have generally led to increases in prices globally, with significant impacts to sales and interim profits. We generate revenue from sales of cultivation solutions, including ancillary products and services, Agrify Insights™ cultivation software, facility build-outs and extraction equipment and solutions. We believe that our product mix forms an integrated ecosystem that allows us to be engaged with our potential customers from the early stages of the grow cycle — first during the facility build-out, to the choice of cultivation solutions, running the grow business with our Agrify Insights™ cultivation software and finally, our extraction, post-processing and testing services to transform harvest into a sellable product. We believe that the delivery of each solution in the various stages of the process will generate sales of additional solutions and services. The following table provides a breakdown of our revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, (In thousands) 2022 2021 Change % Change 2022 2021 Change % Change Cultivation solutions, including ancillary products and services $ 4 $ 2,756 $ (2,752 ) (100 )% $ 707 $ 4,110 $ (3,403 ) (83 )% Agrify Insights™ cultivation software 1 — 1 100 % 46 8 38 475 % Facility build-outs 1,334 12,995 (11,661 ) (90 )% 23,551 30,466 (6,915 ) (23 )% Extraction solutions 5,680 — 5,680 100 % 28,065 — 28,065 100 % Total revenue $ 7,019 $ 15,751 $ (8,732 ) (55 )% $ 52,369 $ 34,584 $ 17,785 51 % Revenues decreased by $8.7 million, or 55.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021. The comparative decrease in revenue was primarily related to a reduction in facility build-outs of $11.7 million and a reduction in our cultivation solution sales of $2.8 million, partially offset by the sale of extraction solutions equipment and services from our acquisition of Lab Society in 2022 and the acquisitions of Precision, Cascade and PurePressure in 2021, which contributed $5.7 million in revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The $11.7 million decrease in facility build-out revenue was the result of the completed build-out of two facilities under our TTK Solutions, the deferral of $5.3 million of revenue for the Bud & Mary’s Cultivation, Inc. (“Bud & Mary’s”) project due to pending litigation and a decrease in cultivation products and service sales of $2.8 million primarily due to migrating to a VFU leasing model. Additional information regarding Bud & Mary’s pending litigation may be found in Note 5 – Loan Receivable and Note 19 – Subsequent Events, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Revenues increased by $17.8 million, or 51.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021. The comparative increase in revenue was generated primarily from extraction solutions sales of equipment and services from our acquisition of Lab Society in 2022 and the acquisitions of Precision, Cascade and PurePressure in 2021, which contributed $28.1 million in revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. This was partially offset by a reduction of $6.9 million in facility build-out revenue resulting from the completed build-out of two facilities under our TTK Solutions which includes the deferral of $5.3 million of revenue resulting from Bud & Mary’s pending litigation and a decrease in cultivation products and service sales of $3.4 million primarily due to migrating to a VFU leasing model. Cost of Goods Sold Cost of goods sold represents a combination of the following: construction-related costs associated with our facility build-outs, internal and outsourced labor and material costs associated with the assembly of both cultivation equipment (primarily VFUs) and extraction equipment, as well as labor and parts costs associated with the sale or provision of other products and services. 59 The following table provides a breakdown of our cost of goods sold for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, (In thousands) 2022 2021 Change % Change 2022 2021 Change % Change Cultivation solutions, including ancillary products and services $ 572 $ 3,570 $ (2,998 ) (84 )% $ 2,312 $ 5,456 $ (3,144 ) (58 )% Agrify Insights™ cultivation software — — — — % — — — — % Facility build-outs 6,429 12,561 (6,132 ) (49 )% 28,217 29,521 (1,304 ) (4 )% Extraction solutions 4,134 — 4,134 100 % 20,174 — 20,174 100 % Total cost of goods sold $ 11,135 $ 16,131 $ (4,996 ) (31 )% $ 50,703 $ 34,977 $ 15,726 45 % Cost of goods sold decreased by $5.0 million, or 31%, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. The comparative quarterly decrease in the cost of goods sold is related to a decrease of $6.1 million related to costs for facility build-outs and a decrease of $3.0 million of costs for cultivation product and service sales. This was partially offset by an increase of $4.1 million in expenses associated with the sales of our extraction-related equipment, for which there was no associated revenue or expense in the prior year quarterly period. The cost of goods sold related to facility build-outs decreased disproportionately as compared to revenue in the period as we have included $5.1 million of facility build-out expenses related to the Bud & Mary’s project for which revenue has been deferred in the period. Cost of goods sold increased by $15.7 million, or 45%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The comparative quarterly increase in the cost of goods sold is associated with the introduction of our extraction-related equipment sales in the year-to-date 2022 fiscal period. Costs associated with extraction equipment-related equipment sales accounted for $20.2 million of the comparative year-to-date fiscal 2022 increase in the cost of goods sold. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of $1.3 million in facility build-outs and a decrease of $3.1 million in cultivation product and service sales. The cost of goods sold related to facility build-outs decreased disproportionately as compared to revenue in the period as we have included $5.1 million of facility build-out expenses related to the Bud & Mary’s project for which revenue has been deferred in the period. Gross (Loss) Profit Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, (In thousands) 2022 2021 Change % Change 2022 2021 Change % Change Gross (loss) profit $ (4,116 ) $ (380 ) $ (3,736 ) (983 )% $ 1,666 $ (393 ) $ 2,059 524 % Gross loss totaled $(4.1) million, or (58.6) % of total revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to a gross loss of $(380) thousand, or ( 2.4)% of total revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2021. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we realized a gross profit margin of 27% associated with our extraction solutions revenue. The negative gross margin on the cultivation-related revenue is primarily related to $5.1 million of facility build-out costs recognized for the Bud & Mary’s project for which $5.3 million of revenue has been deferred due to pending litigation and $568 thousand of overhead expenses for cultivation solutions expenses. This was partially offset by $1.5 million of contribution related to extraction solutions equipment and service sales from our acquisition of Lab Society in 2022 and the acquisitions of Precision, Cascade and PurePressure in 2021. 60 Gross profit totaled $1.7 million, or 3.2 % of total revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to a gross loss of $(393) thousand, or (1.1)% of total revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The comparative $2.1 million year-over-year improvement in gross profit, as well as the comparative improvement in gross profit margin, is primarily attributable to the introduction of our extraction solutions revenue during the first nine months of 2022. No extraction solutions-related revenues were recognized during the first nine months of 2021. Extraction solutions revenue contributes a higher gross profit and gross profit margins than those realized on our cultivation-related revenue, which includes our TTK Solutions build-out revenue. During the first nine months of 2022, we realized a gross profit margin of 28% associated with our extraction solutions revenue, while we realized a gross loss of approximately (26)% on our cultivation-related revenues. The negative gross margin on the cultivation-related revenue is primarily related to $5.1 million of facility build-out costs recognized for the Bud & Mary’s project for which $5.3 million of revenue has been deferred due to pending litigation. Operating Expenses Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, (In thousands) 2022 2021 Change % Change 2022 2021 Change % Change General and administrative $ 24,126 $ 7,705 $ 16,421 213 % $ 53,263 $ 16,562 $ 36,701 222 % Selling and marketing 2,160 890 1,270 143 % 6,582 2,288 4,294 188 % Research and development 1,747 827 920 111 % 6,269 2,483 3,786 152 % Change in contingent consideration (602 ) — (602 ) (100 )% (1,509 ) — (1,509 ) (100 )% Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets — — — — % 69,904 — 69,904 100 % Total operating expenses $ 27,431 $ 9,422 $ 18,009 191 % $ 134,509 $ 21,333 $ 113,176 531 % General and administrative General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses consist principally of salaries and related costs for personnel, including stock-based compensation and travel expenses, associated with executive and other administrative functions. Other G&A expenses include, but are not limited to, professional fees for legal, consulting, depreciation and amortization and accounting services, as well as facility-related costs. G&A expense increased by $16.4 million, or 213%, for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021. The primary drivers of the increase in comparative G&A expense in the third quarter of 2022 is largely the result of a $14.7 million increase in loan receivable allowances recorded during the quarter, a $1.4 million increase in payroll and employee-related expenses, a $597 thousand increase in subscription, facilities and other expenses, an increase of $151 thousand of investor related and compliance expenses and an additional $1.9 million of G&A expenses related to our acquisition of Lab Society in 2022 and the acquisitions of Precision, Cascade and PurePressure in 2021. These expenses were partially offset by a decrease of $2.4 million in consulting expenses that were related to a one-time financing arrangement cancellation fee in September 2021. During the third quarter of 2022, we increased our loans receivable reserve by approximately $14.7 million. We deemed it necessary to fully reserve Bud & Mary’s loan receivable balance due to the current litigation and the uncertainty of the customer’s ability to repay the outstanding balance. We believe the litigation is without merit and will continue to vigorously defend ourselves. G&A expense increased by $36.7 million, or 222%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021. The primary drivers of the year-over-year increase in the comparative nine-month period of G&A expenses are largely attributable to an increase in trade and loan receivable allowances of $23.7 million and $8.8 million of incremental G&A expenses related to our acquisition of Lab Society in 2022 and the acquisitions of Precision, Cascade and PurePressure in 2021. Other drivers of the comparative year-over-year increase in G&A expense included $1.3 million related to legal and accounting services associated with our acquisition of Lab Society in 2022 and acquisitions of Precision, Cascade and PurePressure in 2021, $1.8 million in employee-related expenses, $1.1 million of severance expenses, $800 thousand legal settlement and $389 thousand of other operating expenses. 61 During the second and third quarter of 2022, we increased our loan receivable reserve by approximately $7.1 million and $14.7 million, respectively. The $7.1 million increase during the second quarter of 2022, is specifically related to Greenstone Holdings (“Greenstone”). We specifically established the loan reserve related to Greenstone based on our review of Greenstone’s financial stability, which would impact collectability and is primarily the result of unfavorable market conditions within the Colorado market. We will continue to monitor the operations of Greenstone in an effort to collect all outstanding receivables but due to the uncertain nature of Greenstone’s business at this time we have made the decision to place a reserve against the loan receivable amounts. Additional information regarding recent developments with Greenstone may be found in Note 5 – Loan Receivable, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The $14.7 million increase during the third quarter of 2022, specifically related to Bud & Mary’s. We deemed it necessary to fully reserve Bud & Mary’s loan receivable balance due to the current litigation and the uncertainty of the customer’s ability to repay the outstanding balance. We believe the litigation is without merit and will continue to vigorously defend ourselves. Selling and marketing Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs of personnel, travel expenses, trade shows and advertising expenses. Selling and marketing expenses increased by $1.3 million, or 143%, for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021. The increase is attributable to our acquisition of Lab Society in 2022 and the acquisitions of Precision, Cascade and PurePressure in 2021, which contributed $972 thousand, an increase in payroll and employee-related expenses of $163 thousand and an increase in advertising and trade show expenses of $147 thousand. Selling and marketing expenses increased by $4.3 million, or 188%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021. The increase is primarily related to our acquisition of Lab Society in 2022 and the acquisitions of Precision, Cascade, and PurePressure in 2021, which attributed $3.2 million, an increase in payroll, severance, and related expenses of $540 thousand and an increase in advertising, trade shows and other expenses of $539 thousand. Research and development Research and development (“R&D”) expense consisted primarily of costs incurred for the development of our Agrify Insights™ cultivation software and next-generation generation VFUs, which includes: ● employee-related expenses, including salaries, benefits, and travel; ● expenses incurred by the subcontractor under agreements to provide engineering work related to the development of our next-generation VFUs; ● expenses related to our facilities, depreciation, and other expenses, which include direct and allocated expenses for rent and maintenance of facilities, insurance and other supplies. R&D expense increased by $920 thousand, or 111%, for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021. The increase is primarily related to an increase in materials and other costs of $565 thousand and our acquisition of Lab Society in 2022 and the acquisitions of Precision, Cascade, and PurePressure in 2021, which contributed $470 thousand. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $116 thousand in payroll and employee-related expenses. As a percentage of net revenue, R&D expenses were 24.9% of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to 5.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. 62 R&D expense increased by $3.8 million, or 152%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021. The comparative periodic increase in R&D expense is attributable to third-party consulting services of $1.4 million, $1.2 million of incremental R&D expense related to the acquisition of Lab Society in 2022 and the acquisitions of Precision, Cascade and PurePressure in 2021, increases in wages and benefits-related expenses of $684 thousand and an increase in materials, supplies and other expenses of $450 thousand. As a percentage of net revenue, R&D expenses were 12.0% of total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to 7.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. We expect to continue to invest in future developments of our VFUs, Agrify Insights™ cultivation software and our extraction products. Although we continue to increase our investment in R&D activities, we expect R&D expenses to decrease as a percentage of revenue due to our revenue growth. Change in contingent consideration Change in contingent consideration resulted in a gain of $602 thousand, or 100%, for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same periods in 2021. The change in contingent consideration, which was recognized by us during the third quarter of 2022, primarily relates to the reduction in the projected earn-out achievement associated with PurePressure’s first twelve-month earn-out period, for which current revenue projections are trending below our original earn-out achievement fair value estimates. During the third quarter of 2022, we reduced the current fair value estimate of contingent consideration to be earned by the former members of PurePressure by approximately $602 thousand. As per the guidelines of ASC805, we are required to record subsequent changes to our original fair value estimates related to contingent consideration as an operating expense in the period of change and not as an increase to goodwill. Change in contingent consideration resulted in a gain of $1.5 million, or 100%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same periods in 2021. The change in contingent consideration, which was recognized by us during the second and third quarter of 2022, primarily relates to the reduction in the projected earn-out achievement associated with Lab Society’s and PurePressure’s first twelve-month earn-out period, for which current revenue projections are trending below our original earn-out achievement fair value estimates. During the second quarter of 2022, we reduced the current fair value estimate of contingent consideration to be earned by the former members of Lab Society by approximately $1.0 million. During the third quarter of 2022, we reduced the current fair value estimate of contingent consideration to be earned by the former members of PurePressure by approximately $602 thousand. This was partially offset by an increase of $121 thousand to the final contingent consideration amount earned by the former members of Precision and Cascade. As per the guidelines of ASC805, we are required to record subsequent changes to our original fair value estimates related to contingent consideration as an operating expense in the period of change and not as an increase to goodwill. Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets During the three months period ended June 30, 2022, we identified an impairment-triggering event associated with both a sustained decline in our stock price and associated market capitalization, as well as a second-quarter slowdown in the cannabis industry as a whole. Due to these factors, we deemed that there was an impairment to the carrying value of its long-lived assets and accordingly performed interim testing as of June 30, 2022. Based on its interim testing, we noted that the current carrying value of equity significantly exceeded the calculated fair value equity, by an amount greater than the aggregate value of our goodwill and intangible assets. Accordingly, we concluded that the entire carrying value of its goodwill and intangible assets should be impaired, resulting in a second-quarter impairment charge of $69.9 million. Additional information regarding our interim testing on goodwill may be found in Note 7 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. 63 Other Income (Expense), Net Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, (In thousands) 2022 2021 Change % Change 2022 2021 Change % Change Interest (expense) income, net $ (3,979 ) $ 45 $ (4,024 ) (8,943 )% $ (5,224 ) $ 68 $ (5,292 ) (7,782 )% Other income (expense) 1,506 (15 ) 1,521 10,140 % 1,506 (78 ) 1,584 2,031 % Change in fair value of warrant liability 5,686 — 5,686 100 % 5,686 — 5,686 100 % (Loss) gain on extinguishment of notes payable (17,933 ) — (17,933 ) (100 )% (17,933 ) 2,685 (20,618 ) (768 )% Total other (expense) income, net $ (14,720 ) $ 30 $ (14,750 ) (49,165 )% $ (15,964 ) $ 2,675 $ (18,639 ) (697 )% Interest (expense) income, net Interest expense increased by $4.0 million, or 8,943%, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in interest expense primarily is attributable to an increase in interest expense, including the amortization of debt discount costs associated with the outstanding principal balance of our existing debt facility, plus incremental pre-payment penalty interest incurred in connection with the modification of our debt facility, of $4.1 million related to our SPA Note and Exchange Note. This was partially offset by interest income of approximately $100 thousand from our TTK Solutions. Interest expense increased by $5.3 million, or 7,782%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in interest expense primarily is attributable to an increase in interest expense, including the amortization of debt discount costs associated with the outstanding principal balance of our existing debt facility, plus incremental pre-payment penalty interest incurred in connection with the modification of our debt facility, of $6.9 million related to our SPA Note and Exchange Note. This was partially offset by interest income of approximately $1.2 million from our TTK Solutions. Other income (expense) Other income increased by $1.5 million, or 10,140%, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in other income primarily is attributable to the finalization and favorable true-up of previously estimated acquisition-related net working capital amounts related to the acquisition of Lab Society in 2022 and the acquisitions of Precision, Cascade and PurePressure in 2021 of $1.5 million. This partially was offset by other expense-related items. Other expenses increased by $1.6 million, or 2,031%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in other income primarily is attributable to the finalization and favorable true-up of previously estimated acquisition-related net working capital amounts related to the acquisition of Lab Society in 2022 and the acquisitions of Precision, Cascade and PurePressure in 2021 of $1.5 million. This partially was offset by other expense-related related items. Change in fair value of warrant liability Change in fair value of warrant liability increased by $5.7 million, or 100% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $0 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. During the three months period ended September 30, 2022, we recorded a non-cash gain of $5.7 million related to changes in the valuation of our liability-classified warrants issued through a private placement associated with Warrant Liabilities , which was primarily driven by movements in our stock price. Additional information regarding the fair value of our liability-classified warrants issued through a private placement using a Black - Scholes option- pricing model that makes certain assumptions may be found in Note 4 – Fair Value Measures, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. 64 (Loss) gain on extinguishment of notes payable Loss on extinguishment of notes payable increased by $17.9 million, or 100%, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The loss on extinguishment of notes payable, which was recognized by us during the third quarter of 2022, relates to the extinguishment of the SPA Note dated March 14, 2022. We recognized a loss on extinguishment of $17.9 million (inclusive of $12.4 million of unamortized warrants, $3.0 million default penalty on the principal amount, $2.3 million of unamortized issuance costs and $1.2 million of the incremental fair value of warrants modified in exchange of debt). Additional information relating to our SPA Note may be found in Note 9 – Debt, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Loss on extinguishment of notes payable increased by $20.7 million, or 768%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. The loss on extinguishment of notes payable, which was recognized by us during the third quarter of 2022, relates to the extinguishment of the SPA Note. We recognized a loss on extinguishment of $17.9 million (inclusive of $12.4 million of unamortized warrants, $3.0 million default penalty on the principal amount, $2.3 million of unamortized issuance costs and $1.2 million of the incremental fair value of warrants modified in exchange of debt). This is compared to a gain on extinguishment of $2.7 million in connection with the derecognition of the net carrying amount of the extinguished debt of $19.6 million (inclusive of $13.1 million of principal, $7.1 million of derivative liabilities, less $587 thousand of debt discount) and the recognition of the $16.9 million fair value of the new convertible notes (including the same principal amount of $13.1 million plus the $3.8 million fair value of the beneficial conversion feature) in the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Additional information relating to our gain on extinguishment of notes payable may be found in Note 11 – Convertible Promissory Notes, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Income Tax Benefit Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, (In thousands) 2022 2021 Change % Change 2022 2021 Change % Change Income tax benefit $ — $ — $ — — % $ (262 ) $ — $ (262 ) 100 % Effective tax rate 0.0 % 0.0 % 0.2 % 0.0 % 65 The effective income tax rate was 0.0% for both the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The income tax benefit was $0 for both the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The change in the income tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily due to a discrete income tax benefit of approximately $200 thousand recorded during the first quarter of 2022, which is attributable to a non-recurring partial release of our U.S. valuation allowance as a result of the Lab Society acquisition. Additionally, as a result of the goodwill impairment charge recorded during the second quarter of 2022, we recognized a small benefit of approximately $62 thousand related to the reversal of our opening deferred tax liability on indefinite-lived assets. Income (Loss) Attributable to Non-Controlling Interest We consolidate the results of operations of two less than wholly-owned entities into our consolidated statements of operations. On December 8, 2019, we formed Agrify-Valiant, LLC (“Agrify-Valiant”), a joint-venture limited liability company in which we are 60% majority owner and Valiant-America, LLC owns 40%. Agrify-Valiant started its operations during the second quarter of 2020. On October 27, 2022, we provided notice to Valiant-America, LLC of our intention to begin winding up of Agrify Valiant, LLC. On January 22, 2020, as part of the acquisition of TriGrow, we received TriGrow’s 75% interest in Agrify Brands, LLC (formerly TriGrow Brands, LLC), a licensor of an established portfolio of consumer brands that utilize our grow technology. The license of these brands is ancillary to the sale of our VFUs and provides a means to differentiate customers’ products in the marketplace. It is not a material aspect of our business and we have not realized any royalty income. Accordingly, we are currently evaluating whether to continue this legacy business from an operational standpoint, as well as from a legal and regulatory perspective. Income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interest represents the portion of profit (or loss) that are attributable to non-controlling interest calculated as a product of the net income of the entity multiplied by the percentage of ownership held by the non-controlling interest. Liquidity and Capital Resources Operating Capital Requirements We have incurred operating losses since our inception and have negative cash flows from operations. We have an accumulated deficit of $207.5 million as of September 30, 2022. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, with additional liquidity accessible, subject to market conditions and other factors, including limitations that may apply to us under applicable Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulations, from the capital markets, including under its (“ATM” or ATM Program”). As of September 30, 2022, we had $12.5 million of cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and restricted cash. Our restricted cash of $10.0 million is associated with the Exchange Note as of September 30, 2022. Current liabilities were $41.5 million as of September 30, 2022. In October 2022, we entered into the ATM Program with Canaccord Genuity LLC (the “Agent”) pursuant to which we may issue and sell, from time to time, shares of our Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $50 million, depending on market demand, with the Agent acting as an agent for sales. The ATM Program allows us to sell shares of Common Stock pursuant to specific parameters defined by us as well as those defined by the SEC and the ATM Program agreement. Subsequent to the quarter ended September 30, 2022, as of November 7, 2022, we sold 6,132,565 shares of Common Stock, under the ATM at an average price of $2.54 per share, resulting in gross proceeds to us of $15.6 million, and net proceeds of $15.1 million after commissions and fees to the Agent totaling $468 thousand. $3.1 million of the proceeds under the ATM Program were used to repay amounts due to the Investor under the Exchange Note. The ATM allows for quick and agile sales of Common Stock to interested investors and provides an opportunity to raise additional capital for working capital requirements or to fund strategic opportunities that may present themselves from time to time. We have used, and intend to continue to use, the net proceeds generated from the ATM Program for working capital and general corporate purposes, including repayment of indebtedness, funding its transformation initiatives and product category expansion efforts and capital expenditures. As of November 7, 2022, we had $34.4 million of remaining availability for future issuances of Common Stock under the ATM Program. We believe we have sufficient cash on hand to continue operations for the next six months. Our current working capital needs are to support revenue growth, fund construction and equipment financing commitments associated with our TTK Solutions, manage inventory to meet demand forecasts and support operational growth. Our long-term financial needs primarily include working capital requirements and capital expenditures. We anticipate that we will allocate a significant portion of our current balance of working capital to satisfy the financing requirements of our current and future TTK arrangements. These arrangements require a significant amount of upfront capital necessary to fund construction, associated with facility build-outs, and equipment. 66 We may opportunistically raise debt capital, subject to market and other conditions. Additionally, as part of our growth strategies, we may also raise debt capital for strategic alternatives and general corporate purposes. If additional financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to raise such capital on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, our business, operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected. These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies we believe these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within the next twelve months from the date these financial statements are available to be issued. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary debt or equity financing to continue operations until we begin generating sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations. There is no assurance that we will ever be profitable. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the potential future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should we be unable to continue as a going concern. Indebtedness We entered into one Loan Agreement and Promissory Note with Bank of America pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. We received total proceeds of approximately $779 thousand from the unsecured PPP Loan which was originally scheduled to mature in May 2022. We applied for forgiveness on the $779 thousand of our PPP Loan however was denied by the SBA. On June 23, 2022, we received a letter from Bank of America agreeing to extend the maturity date to May 7, 2025 and bears interest at a rate of 1.00% per year. The PPP loan is payable in 34 equal combined monthly principal and interest payments of approximately $24 thousand that commenced on August 7, 2022. On March 14, 2022, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an institutional investor. The Purchase Agreement provides for the issuance of a senior secured note (the “SPA Note”) in the aggregate amount of $65 million and a warrant (the “SPA Warrant”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 688,111 shares of Common Stock, with the potential for two potential subsequent closings for notes with an original principal amount of $35 million each. On August 18, 2022, we entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, we have paid $35.2 million under the SPA Note and exchanged the remaining balance of the SPA Note for a new senior secured note (the “Exchange Note”) with an aggregate original principal amount of $35 million and a new warrant to purchase 1,422,764 shares of Common Stock (the “Note Exchange Warrant”). Additionally, we exchanged the SPA Warrant for a new warrant for the same number of underlying shares but with a reduced exercise price (the “Modified Warrant”). The Exchange Note is a senior secured obligation of us and ranks senior to all indebtedness of us. The Exchange Note will mature on the three-year anniversary of its issuance (the “Maturity Date”) and contains a 9.0% annualized interest rate, with interest to be paid monthly, in cash, beginning September 1, 2022. The principal amount of the Exchange Note will be payable on the Maturity Date, provided that the Investor will be entitled to a cash sweep of 20% of the proceeds received by us in connection with any equity financing, which will reduce the outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note. At any time, we may prepay all of the Exchange Note by redemption at a price equal to 102.5% of the then-outstanding principal amount under the Note plus accrued but unpaid interest. The Investor will also have the option of requiring us to redeem the Exchange Note on the one-year or two-year anniversaries of issuance at a price equal to the then-outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note plus accrued but unpaid interest, or if we undergo a fundamental change at a price equal to 102.5% of the then-outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note plus accrued but unpaid interest. 67 Summary Statement of Cash Flows The following table presents the major components of net cash flows from and used in operating, investing, and financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021: (In thousands) September 30, 2022 September 30, 2021 Net cash (used in) provided by: Operating activities $ (66,115 ) $ (17,557 ) Investing activities (4,135 ) (84,683 ) Financing activities 60,387 138,875 Net increase in cash and cash equivalents $ (9,863 ) $ 36,635 Cash Flow from Operating Activities Cash used in operating activities consists of net income adjusted for non-cash benefits and expenses, and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Our primary source of cash provided by operating activities is cash collections from our customers related to the sale of cultivation and extraction solutions. Our primary uses of cash from our operating activities include payments for employee-related expenditures, payments for inventory due to increased demand forecasts, construction costs related to TTK Solutions, acquisition-related costs and the payment of other operating expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business. Net cash used in operating activities increased from the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 primarily due to higher inventory purchases to meet demand, increased construction costs related to TTK Solutions, payments for employee-related expenditures and other working capital needs. Cash Flow from Investing Activities Cash provided by investing activities consists primarily of maturities and sales of investments in marketable securities. Cash used in investing activities consists primarily of purchases of marketable securities, cash paid associated with our 2022 acquisition of Lab Society, the issuance of loans receivable in connection with our financing of construction and equipment under its TTK Solutions offering and purchases of property and equipment expenditures. The capital expenditures support growth and investment in property and equipment, to expand research, development, and testing capabilities and, to a lesser extent, the replacement of existing equipment. Net cash used in investing activities decreased from the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 primarily due to a net decrease in cash used for purchases, sales and maturities of marketable securities, partially offset by an increase in purchases of property and equipment, issuance of TTK-related loans and cash paid in connection with our 2022 acquisitions of Lab Society. Cash Flow from Financing Activities Cash provided by financing activities consists primarily of proceeds from the issuance of Common Stock, debt, and warrants in private placements and proceeds from the initial and secondary public offerings. Cash used in financing activities consists primarily of repayment of debt. Net cash provided by financing activities decreased from the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 primarily due to an increase in repayment of debt. 68 Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements During the periods presented, we did not have, nor do we currently have, any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. We are therefore not exposed to the financing, liquidity, market, or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in those types of relationships. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Part I, Item, 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” discusses our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. These estimates are based on our knowledge and understanding of current conditions and actions that we may take in the future. Changes in these estimates will occur as a result of the passage of time and the occurrence of future events. Subsequent changes in these estimates may have a significant impact on our financial condition and results of operations and are recorded in the period in which they become known. We have identified the following estimates that, in our opinion, are subjective in nature, require the exercise of judgment and involve complex analysis: the fair value of derivative assets and liabilities, goodwill impairment assessment, revenue recognition and cost of goods sold. The significant accounting policies and estimates that have been adopted and followed in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements are detailed in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in our 2021 Annual Report and Note 1 - Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies to our consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. There have been no changes in these policies and estimates that had a significant impact on the financial condition and results of operations for the periods covered in this Quarterly Report. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Adopted For more information on recently issued accounting pronouncements are included within Note 1 - Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, included elsewhere in the notes to consolidated financial statements covered under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted For more information on new accounting pronouncements not yet adopted are included within Note 1 - Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, included elsewhere in the notes to consolidated financial statements covered under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. 69 Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide information required by this Item. Item 4. Controls and Procedures Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in paragraph (e) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act) are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under the rules and forms of the SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures As required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2022. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting previously identified in Item 9A, “Controls and Procedures” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 and filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2022. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting We are implementing certain measures to remediate the material weaknesses identified in the design and operation of our internal control over financial reporting, including hiring additional qualified personnel, further documentation and implementation of control procedures and the implementation of control monitoring. Other than those measures, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. 70 PART II — OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings From time to time, we are a party to various legal proceedings or claims arising in the ordinary course of business. For information related to legal proceedings, see the discussion under the caption Legal Matters in Note 17 - Commitments and Contingencies to our consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, which information is incorporated by reference into this Part II, Item 1. Item 1A. Risk Factors As of the date of this report , except for the risk factor set forth below, there are no material changes to our risk factors as previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Our recently completed reverse stock split is subject to several risks, and we cannot predict whether it will increase the market price for our common stock. We cannot predict whether the 1-for-10 reverse stock split completed on October 18, 2022 will increase the market price for our common stock. The history of similar stock split combinations for companies in like circumstances is varied, and the market price of our Common Stock will also be based on our performance and other factors, some of which are unrelated to the number of shares outstanding. Further, there are a number of risks associated with the reverse stock split, including: ● The market price per share of our shares of Common Stock post-split may not remain in excess of the Minimum Bid Requirement, or we may fail to meet the other requirements for continued listing on Nasdaq, resulting in the delisting of our common stock. ● Although the Board of Directors believes that a higher stock price may help generate the interest of new investors, the reverse stock split may not result in a per-share price that will successfully attract certain types of investors and such resulting share price may not satisfy the investing guidelines of institutional investors or investment funds. Further, other factors, such as our financial results, market conditions and the market perception of our business, may adversely affect the interest of new investors in the shares of our Common Stock. As a result, the trading liquidity of the shares of our common stock may not improve as a result of the reverse stock split and there can be no assurance that the reverse stock split will result in the intended benefits. ● The reverse stock split could be viewed negatively by the market and other factors may adversely affect the market price of the shares of our common stock. Consequently, the market price per post-split share may not increase in proportion to the reduction of the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding before the implementation of the reverse stock split. Accordingly, the total market capitalization of our shares of Common Stock after the reverse stock split may be lower than the total market capitalization before the reverse stock split. Any reduction in total market capitalization as the result of the reverse stock split may make it more difficult for us to meet the Nasdaq Listing Rule regarding minimum value of listed securities, which could result in our shares of Common Stock being delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market. ● The reverse stock split may result in some stockholders owning “odd lots” of less than 100 shares of common stock. Odd lot shares may be more difficult to sell, and brokerage commissions and other costs of transactions in odd lots are generally somewhat higher than the costs of transactions in “round lots” of even multiples of 100 shares. 71 Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds On August 17, 2022, we issued 8,704 shares of Common Stock to the former holders of Precision and Cascade in connection with the finalization of the net working capital settlement from the acquisition of Precision and Cascade. The issuance of the shares of Common Stock was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of, and Rule 506 under Regulation D promulgated under, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities None. Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures Not applicable. Item 5. Other Information None. 72 Item 6.
