FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — Overview, Basis of Presentation
and Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
Agrify Corporation (“Agrify”
or the “Company”) is a leading provider of innovative cultivation and extraction solutions for the cannabis industry, bringing
data, science, and technology to the forefront of the market. The Company’s proprietary micro-environment-controlled Agrify Vertical
Farming Units (or “VFUs”) enable cultivators to produce the highest quality products with what we believe to be unmatched
consistency, yield, and return investment at scale. The Company’s comprehensive extraction product line, which includes hydrocarbon,
alcohol, 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-positioned to capture market share and create a dominant market
position in the indoor cannabis 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” and the Company also has ownership interests in certain
companies. (Please refer to Exhibit 23.1 for further details)
Reverse Stock Splits
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.
On July 5, 2023, the Company
effected a 1-for-20 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.
Confidentially Marketed Public Offering
On December 16, 2022, the
Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Canaccord Genuity LLC as the underwriter,
pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell an aggregate of 594,232 shares of its Common Stock, and, in lieu of Common Stock
to certain investors that so chose, pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded 2022 Warrants”) to purchase 75,000 shares of our
Common Stock, and accompanying warrants (the “December 2022 Warrants”) to purchase 1,338,462 shares of the Company’s
Common Stock (the “Offering”). The shares of Common Stock (or Pre-Funded 2022 Warrants) and the accompanying December 2022
Warrants will be issued separately but can only be purchased together in this Offering. Additional information regarding the Company’s
December 2022 Warrants may be found in Note 4 – Fair Value Measures and Note 10 – Stockholders’ Equity, included elsewhere
in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
The aggregate gross proceeds
to the Company from the Offering were approximately $ 8.7 million including offering costs of approximately $ 0.5 million for broker fees
and legal expenses, for net proceeds of $ 8.2 million. The Company has used the net proceeds from the Offering, together with its existing
cash resources, for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include capital expenditures and repayment of debt.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Nasdaq Deficiency Notice
On
October 4, 2022, the Company received a deficiency letter 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 exercised 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.
On January 19, 2023, the
Company received a new deficiency letter from the Staff of Nasdaq notifying the Company that, for the previous 30 consecutive business
days, the bid price for its 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 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 July 19, 2023, the Company received a notice from Nasdaq confirming its recompliance with the minimum
bid price rule.
As disclosed in the Current
Report on Form 8-K filed on April 17, 2023, the Company’s audit committee concluded that, as a result of inadvertent errors in the
accounting for warrants previously issued by the Company, it was appropriate to restate the Company’s previously issued unaudited
condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of and for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022 and September
30, 2022 included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for such periods in amended quarterly reports for the affected
periods. As a result of such restatements, the Company was unable to timely file the 2022 Form 10-K, the First Quarter 2023 Form 10-Q
and the Second Quarter 2023 Form 10-Q without unreasonable effort or expense.
On April 18, 2023, the Company
received a notice from Nasdaq (the “April Nasdaq Notice”) that it was noncompliant with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) as
a result of its failure to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Form 10-K”) with the SEC by the required due date.
On
May 17, 2023, the Company received a second notice from Nasdaq (the “May Nasdaq Notice”)
that it remained noncompliant with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) as a result of its failure to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 (the “First Quarter Form 10-Q”) with the SEC by the required due date.
On August 16, 2023, the Company
received a third notice from Nasdaq that it remain noncompliant with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) as a result of its failure to file
its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023 (the “Second Quarter Form 10-Q”) with the SEC
by the required filing date (the “August Nasdaq Notice” and, together with the April Nasdaq Notice and the May Nasdaq Notice,
the “Nasdaq Notices”).
The
Nasdaq granted the Company an exception until October 16, 2023, to file its 2022 Form 10-K and First and Second Quarter 2023 Forms 10-Q.
The Nasdaq Notice had no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC.
On October 17, 2023, the
Company received a Staff Delisting Determination (the “Staff Determination”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of
Nasdaq notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements under the Listing Rule as
a result of its failure to file the First Quarter Form 10-Q, the Second Quarter Form 10-Q and the Form 10-K (collectively, the “Delinquent
Reports”) in a timely manner.
The Company timely requested
a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), and the Panel scheduled a hearing for January 11, 2024. In connection
with the hearing request, the Company requested that the stay be extended through the hearing and the expiration of any additional extension
period granted by the Panel following the hearing. In that regard, pursuant to the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Panel granted the additional
extension period. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance by the end of any additional extension
period.

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. On February 18, 2022, the Company applied for forgiveness of the outstanding balance of the PPP Loan and the application
was denied by the SBA on March 18,2022. However, on June 23, 2022, the Company received a letter from Bank of America agreeing to extend
the maturity date to May 7, 2025 and the loan will bear 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.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
Accounting for Wholly-Owned
Subsidiaries
The accompanying consolidated
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”)
and include the accounts of Agrify Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, as described above, 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, Agrify-Valiant LLC (“Agrify-Valiant”), and Agrify Brands, LLC (“Agrify
Brands”), the Company first analyzes whether these entities are a variable interest entity (a “VIE”) in accordance with
ASC Topic 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”), 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.
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.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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, has negative cash flows from operations and a working capital deficiency. The Company also has an
accumulated deficit of $ 257 million as of March 31, 2023. 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 March 31, 2023, the
Company had $ 1.5 million of cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. The Company had no restricted cash as of March 31, 2023.
As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s restricted cash balance of $ 10.0 million was associated with its new senior secured note
(the “Exchange Note”). Current liabilities were $ 58.0 million as of March 31, 2023. Additional information regarding the Company’s
Exchange Note may be found in Note 8 – Debt, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
On October 18, 2022, the
Company entered into the ATM Program with Canaccord Genuity LLC (the “Agent”) pursuant to which it 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 Program allowed 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. In 2022, the Company sold 306,628 shares of
Common Stock under the ATM at an average price of $ 50.85 , resulting in gross proceeds of $ 15.6 million and net proceeds $ 15.1 million
after commissions and fees to the Agent totaling $ 468 thousand and legal fees totaling $ 75 thousand. As of April 1, 2023, after which
time the ATM program was discontinued, the Company sold an additional 323,082 shares of Common Stock under the ATM at an average price
of $ 4.93 , resulting in gross proceeds of $ 1.6 million and net proceeds of $ 1.6 million after commissions and fees to the Agent totaling
$ 48 thousand. $ 3.0 million of the proceeds under the ATM Program were used to repay amounts due to the Investor under the Exchange Note.
The Company used 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. Due to the late
filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company is no longer eligible to utilize the registration statement on Form S-3 relating
to the ATM Program.
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 include assumptions about collection of accounts
and notes receivable, the valuation and recognition of stock-based compensation expense, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets,
the valuation of inventory, and useful life of fixed assets and intangible assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience,
known trends and other market-specific information, 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.
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 months ended
March 31, 2023 and 2022.

In addition, the Company
effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of its Common Stock on October 18, 2022 and a 1-for-20 reverse stock split of its Common Stock
on July 5, 2023. 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’
equity section of the Consolidated Balance Sheet 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 March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. 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 8 – 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.
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, marketable securities, 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.

Inventories
The Company values all 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:

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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 expense 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. During construction,
costs are accumulated in a construction-in-progress account, with no depreciation. Upon completion, costs are transferred to the appropriate
asset account, and depreciation begins when the asset is 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 quarter 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 property and equipment 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. Accordingly, the Company concluded that the entire carrying value of its goodwill was impaired, resulting in a second-quarter
impairment charge of $ 54.7 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.
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 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 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.

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 (“ASC 815”). The accounting treatment
of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company identify and record certain 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 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 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 (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815.
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 ASC 480 and ASC 815. Management’s assessment considers whether the warrants
are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, whether they meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether
the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, 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 consolidated statements of operations.
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 “August 2022 Exchange Agreement”). Pursuant to the August 2022 Exchange
Agreement, the Company issued a new warrant to purchase 71,139 shares of Common Stock (the “Note Exchange Warrant”) and modified
an existing warrant (the “SPA Warrant”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 34,406 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 “August 2022 Warrants”). Additional information regarding the August
2022 Exchange Agreement and August 2022 Warrants may be found in Note 4 – Fair Value Measures and Note 9 – Debt, included
elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Debt Issuance Costs and Debt Discount
The Company may record debt
issuance costs and/or debt discounts in connection with the issuance 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
Certain convertible debt
issued by the Company, 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 an 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 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
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 the Company can recognize. The Company recognizes deferred revenue and non-current
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 values of accounts receivable
and accounts payable approximate their carrying values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

AGRIFY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company measures all
stock options and other stock-based awards granted to employees, directors and consultants 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.
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;
14
AGRIFY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
●
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 is probable. Specifically, the Company obtains written/electronic
signatures on contracts and purchase orders, 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 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.
15
AGRIFY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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 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.
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 ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, 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.

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 (“Agrify Insights™”).
Capitalization of Internal Software Development
Costs
The Company capitalizes certain
software engineering efforts related to the continued development of Agrify Insights™ under ASC Topic 350-40. The costs incurred
in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as incurred as research costs. Once the application has reached the development
stage, internal and external costs incurred to develop internal-use software are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over
the estimated useful life of the software. Maintenance and enhancement costs, including those costs in the post-implementation stages,
are typically expensed as incurred, unless such costs relate to substantial upgrades and enhancements to the software that result in added
functionality, in which case the costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software.
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. The estimated useful life of capitalized internal-use software ranges from
two to five years.
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 tax asset will not be realized.
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.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company recognizes the
benefit of a tax position when it is effectively settled. ASC 740-10-25-10 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, October 18, 2022 and July 5, 2023.
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 an 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 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company does not expect that the application
of ASU No. 2016-13 will have a material impact on the presentation of its results of operations, financial position, or disclosures.
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 Company does not expect that the application of ASU 2021-08 will have a material impact on the presentation
of its results of operations, financial position, or disclosures.
Other
recent accounting pronouncements did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or
future consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 — Revenue and Deferred Revenue
Revenue
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.

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.
At March 31, 2023 and December
31, 2022, the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows:

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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 as well as other balances of the Company are 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 March 31, 2023, approximated fair value.
● The Company’s deferred consideration was recorded in
connection with acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and fiscal 2022 using an estimated fair value discount at the
time of the transactions. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 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 liabilities recorded in other income
(expense), net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations until the warrants are exercised. The fair value of the warrant
liabilities are estimated using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
Marketable Securities
As of March 31, 2023, the
Company held investments in, municipal bonds and corporate bonds. 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.

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. The company recorded no change
in contingent consideration for the three months ended March 31, 2023 The contingent earn-out payments
to the sellers for each acquisition are based on the achievement of certain revenue thresholds.

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 reduc ed the estimated fair value of the contingent
consideration liability associated with PurePressure’s first earn-out period by approximately $ 602 thousand and their second earn-out
by approximately $ 170 thousand. As required by ASC Topic 805 Business Combination (“ASC 805”), the change in contingent consideration
was recorded as a reduction in operating expenses during the third and fourth quarters of 2022, respectively.
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 and their second earn-out
by approximately $ 484 thousand. As required by ASC 805, the change in contingent consideration was recorded as a reduction in operating
expenses during the second and fourth quarters of 2022, respectively.
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 was recorded as an increase in operating expenses during the second quarter of 2022.
During the period ended December 31, 2022, the Company made the final payment on the contingent consideration of approximately
$ 5.6 million to the m embers of Precision and Cascade.
Warrant Liabilities
The estimated fair value
of the warrant liabilities on March 31, 2023 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. The volatility rate is determined
utilizing the Company’s own share price and the share price of competitors over time.

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

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
On September 15, 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 million outstanding balance in the third quarter
of 2022 due to the current litigation and the uncertainty of the customer’s ability to repay the outstanding balance. 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 year ended December
31, 2022, the Company established a reserve of approximately $ 12.5 million specifically related to Greenstone. Greenstone is a related
party because one of the Company’s former Agrify Brands employees and its VP of Engineering had a minority ownership. 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. During the quarter ended March 31, 2023 the Greenstone loan was fully
written off against the reserve as a result of the sale of Greenstone to Denver Greens. It was agreed that Denver Greens would not have
to pay back Greenstone’s Loan.

(2) The balance was written off
at December 31, 2022 due to the cancellation of this TTK Solution project.
(3) The Company established an
allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $ 14.7 million related to Bud & Mary’s ongoing litigation. Approximately $ 12.5
million relates to Greenstone, which is a related party because one of the Company’s former Agrify Brands employees and its VP
of Engineering had a minority ownership, consisting of capital advances, accrued interest, and VFUs sales. Approximately $ 4.5 million
relates to Hannah, and $ 1.4 million relates to WhiteCloud.
At this time, the Company
is not aware of, nor has it identified any risk or potential performance failure associated with any of its TTK Solution arrangements,
other than the noted exceptions of Bud & Mary’s TTK Solution and Greenstone TTK Solution, which is a related party, as described
above.
The Company analyzed whether
any of the above customers are a VIE in accordance with ASC 810 and if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary requiring consolidation.
Based on the Company’s analysis, the Company has determined that Greenstone, which is a related party because one of the Company’s
former Agrify Brands employees and its VP of Engineering had a minority ownership, is a VIE. As of March 31, 2023, 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.

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.
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 goodwill and intangible asset impairment testing purposes,
the Company has one reporting unit.
During the three-month 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 was 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 goodwill and intangible
assets.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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 goodwill and intangible assets, which totaled $ 54.7 million and $ 15.2 million, respectively.

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 $ 65.0
million, less applicable expenses, as set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement, a senior secured promissory note in an aggregate
principal amount of $ 65.0 million (the “SPA Note”), and a SPA Warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 34,406 shares of Common
Stock.
August 2022 Securities Exchange Agreement
On August 18, 2022, the Company
reached an agreement with the Investor to amend its existing senior SPA Note and entered into the August 2022 Exchange Agreement. Pursuant
to the August 2022 Exchange Agreement, the Company partially paid $ 35.2 million along with approximately $ 300 thousand in repayments for
other fees 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 71,139 shares of Common Stock and modified an existing SPA Warrants
to purchase up to an aggregate of 34,406 shares of Common Stock. The Company exchanged the SPA Warrant for new August 2022 Warrants.
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.
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.
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 has
an exercise price of $ 430.00 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.
30
AGRIFY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Note Exchange Warrant
has an exercise price of $ 246.00 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 completed 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 issued 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 August 2022 Warrants
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).
Modification of Notes Payable
On March 8, 2023, the Company
entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement” or “Second Amendment”) with the High Trail
Special Situations LLC. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, at closing the Company will prepay approximately $ 10.3 million in principal
amount under the August 2022 Note and exchange $ 10.0 in principal amount of the remaining balance of the August 2022 Note for a new senior
secured convertible note (the “Convertible Note”) with an original principal amount of $ 10.0 million. After the closing of
the Exchange Agreement, the August 2022 Note will remain outstanding with a remaining balance of $ 11.7 million (the “Modified August
2022 Note” and, collectively with the Convertible Note, the “Notes”).
This exchange was deemed
to be an extinguishment under ASC 470, as the modified debt added a substantive conversion option that was not inherent in the August
2022 Note. As a result, the Company recognized a loss on the extinguishment of debt of $ 4,619,846 .
Convertible Notes
On March 8, 2023, as a result
of the Exchange Agreement, the Company issued a Convertible Note to High Trail Special Situations
LLC (the “Lender”) with a principal balance of $ 10 million. The Convertible Note bears a 9.0 % annualized interest rate,
with interest to be paid monthly, in cash, beginning April 1, 2023. The principal amount of the Convertible Note will be payable on the
Maturity Date, provided that the Lender will be entitled to a cash sweep of 30 % of the proceeds of any at-the-market equity offering and
20 % of the proceeds received by the Company in connection with any other equity financing, which will reduce the outstanding principal
amount under the August 2022 Note or the Convertible Note.
At any time, the Company
may prepay all of the Convertible Note by redemption at a price equal to 102.5 % of the then-outstanding principal amount under the Convertible
Note plus accrued but unpaid interest. The Lender will also have the option of requiring the Company to redeem the Convertible Note (i)
on August 19, 2023 or August 19, 2024 at a price equal to the then-outstanding principal amount under the Convertible Note plus accrued
but unpaid interest, provided that the redemption right on August 19, 2023 will not be exercisable if the Company raises at least $ 8.0
million in gross proceeds from equity offerings prior to such date, or (ii) if the Company undergoes a fundamental change (as defined
below) at a price equal to 102.5 % of the then-outstanding principal amount under the Convertible Note plus accrued but unpaid interest.
The Convertible Note will
impose certain customary affirmative and negative covenants upon the Company, as well as covenants that will (i) restrict the Company
and its subsidiaries from incurring any additional indebtedness or suffering any liens, subject to specified exceptions, (ii) restrict
the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries from making certain investments, subject to specified exceptions, and (iii) restrict the
declaration of any dividends or other distributions, subject to specified exceptions. If an event of default under the Convertible Note
occurs, the Lender can elect to redeem the Convertible Note for cash equal to (A) 115 % of the then-outstanding principal amount of the
Convertible Note (or such lesser principal amount accelerated by the Investor), plus accrued and unpaid interest, including default interest,
which accrues at a rate per annum equal to 15 % from the date of a default or event of default, or, only in connection with certain events
of default, (B) the greater of the amount under clause (A) or the sum of (i) 115 % of the product of (a) the conversion rate in effect
as of the trading day immediately preceding the date that the Lender delivers a notice of acceleration; (b) the total then outstanding
principal amount under the Convertible Note (in thousands); and (c) the greater of (1) the highest daily volume weighted average price
(“VWAP”) per share of Common Stock occurring during the fifteen consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading
day immediately before the date the Lender delivers such notice and (2) the highest daily VWAP per share of Common Stock occurring during
the fifteen consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading immediately before the date the applicable event of default
occurred and (ii) the accrued and unpaid interest on the Convertible Note.

Until the date the Convertible
Note is fully repaid, the Lender will have, 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.
If the Lender elects to convert
the Convertible Note, the conversion price per share will be $ 0.3820 , subject to customary adjustments for certain corporate events. The
conversion of the Convertible Note will be subject to certain customary conditions. The Convertible Note may not be converted into shares
of Common Stock if such conversion would result in the Lender and its affiliates owning an aggregate of in excess of 4.99 % of the then-outstanding
shares of Common Stock, provided that upon 61 days’ notice, such ownership limitation may be adjusted by the Lender, but in any

Note 9 — 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.
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 March 31, 2023, the Company’s weighted-average discount rate utilized
for its leases was 7.33 %.
When a contract contained
lease and non-lease elements, both were accounted for 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 common
area maintenance associated with the property.

3,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $ 0.001 per share. On January 9, 2020, the Company designated 105,000 shares of the 3,000,000
authorized shares of Preferred Stock, as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”).
On March 1, 2023, the Company further increased its authorized number
of shares to 13,000,000 , consisting of: 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $ 0.001 per share and 3,000,000 shares of preferred
stock, par value $ 0.001 per share.
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 12,253 shares (the “SA Shares”) of Common Stock, pre-funded warrants (the
“Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 7,853 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate
of 15,079 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 $1,360.00 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 (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 $1,496.00 (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 (“CEO”) of the Company, and Stuart Wilcox, who formerly served as our Chief Operating Officer, and
at the time he 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 $ 1,380.00 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.

At The Marketing Offering
On October 18, 2022, the
Company entered into the ATM Program with the Agent pursuant to which it 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 Program allowed 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. As of December 31, 2022, the Company sold 306,628 shares of Common Stock, under the
ATM at an average price of $ 50.85 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of $ 15.6 million, and net proceeds of $ 15.0 million after commissions
and fees to the Agent totaling $ 468 thousand and legal fees totaling $ 75 thousand. $ 3.0 million of the proceeds under the ATM Program
were used to repay amounts due to the Investor under the Exchange Note. The Company used 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. Due to the late filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company is no longer
eligible to utilize the registration statement on Form S-3 relating to the ATM Program, and does not anticipate any further sales under
the ATM Program in the foreseeable future.
Confidentially Marketed Public Offering
On December 16, 2022, the
Company issued 594,232 shares of its Common Stock, Pre-Funded 2022 Warrants to purchase 75,000 shares of its Common Stock and accompanying
December 2022 Warrants to purchase 1,338,471 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Company received net proceeds from the Offering
of approximately $ 8.2 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated expenses. The Company intends to use
the net proceeds from the Offering, together with its existing cash resources, for working capital and general corporate purposes, which
may include capital expenditures and repayment of debt.
The Pre-Funded 2022 Warrants
were exercisable immediately upon issuance at an exercise price of $ 0.001 per share and do not have an expiration date. The December 2022
Warrants were exercisable immediately and have a term of exercise equal to five years from the initial exercise date at an exercise price
of $13.00 per share. The offering price for the securities was $ 13.00 per share (or $ 12.98 for each Pre-Funded 2022 Warrant).
The December 2022 Warrants
may not be exercised by the holder to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own, after such exercise
more than 4.99 % of the shares of the Company’s Common Stock then outstanding (subject to the right of the holder to increase or
decrease such beneficial ownership limitation upon notice to the Company, provided that such limitation cannot exceed 9.99 %) and provided
that any increase in the beneficial ownership limitation shall not be effective until the sixty-first day after such notice is delivered.
The Pre-Funded 2022 Warrants
were classified as a component of permanent equity and the December 2022 Warrants were liability-classified and were recorded at the issuance
date using a relative fair value allocation method. The Pre-Funded 2022 Warrants are equity-classified because they are freestanding financial
instruments that are legally detachable and separately exercisable from the equity instruments, are immediately exercisable, and permit
the holders to receive a fixed number of shares of Common Stock upon exercise. In addition, such warrants do not provide any guarantee
of value or return. The December 2022 Warrants are liability-classified as there is a volatility floor and these warrants are not indexed
to the Company’s own stock.
As of December 31, 2022,
the Company valued the December 2022 Warrants using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and determined the fair value at $ 5.9 million.
The key inputs to the valuation model included the annualized volatility of 98.0 % and the expected term of about 5 years.
Raymond Chang, Chairman and
CEO, participated in the Offering and purchased 115,385 shares of Common Stock and 230,769 December 2022 Warrants for an aggregate purchase
price of approximately $ 1.5 million.
Additional information regarding
the Company’s December 2022 Warrants may be found in Note 1 – Overview, Basis

Note 11 — 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 26,483 shares, which includes the 10,000 shares authorized under the 2022 Plan, plus the rollover
of 16,483 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,
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. As of March 31, 2023, there were 13,123 shares of Common Stock available to be granted under the Company’s 2022 Plan.
The
Company’s stock compensation expense was $ 0.9 million and $ 4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and
2022, respectively.
Stock Options
Stock options granted under
the Company’s 2022 Plan are generally non-qualified and are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s
Common Stock on the date of grant. The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of the 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 three months ended March 31, 2023.
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.
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.
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 consolidated 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 consolidated 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.

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 2,500 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the ESPP. On March 31, 2023,
2,500 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 three months
ended March 31, 2023.
Employee Benefit Plan
The Company maintains an
employee’s savings and retirement plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “401(k) Plan”). All full-time
U.S. employees become eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan. The Company’s contribution to the 401(k) Plan is discretionary.

Note 13 — Income Taxes
The Company’s quarterly
provision for income taxes is measured using an annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items within the period presented. To
determine the annual effective tax rate, the Company estimates both the total income (loss) before income taxes for the full year and
the jurisdictions in which that income (loss) is subject to tax. The actual effective tax rate for the full year may differ from these
estimates if income (loss) before income taxes is greater than or less than what was estimated or if the allocation of income (loss) to
jurisdictions in which it is taxed is different from the estimated allocations.
The provision for income
taxes represents Federal and state and local income taxes. The effective rate differs from statutory rates due to the effect of certain
nondeductible expenses. Our effective tax rate will change from quarter to quarter based on recurring and non-recurring factors including,
but not limited to, the geographical mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation, and state and local income taxes. In addition, changes
in judgment from the evaluation of new information resulting in the recognition de-recognition or re-measurement of a tax position taken
in a prior annual period is recognized separately in the quarter of the change.
Tax contingencies are recorded,
if needed, to address potential exposure involving tax positions the Company has taken that could be challenged by tax authorities. These
potential exposures could result from applications of various statutes, rules, regulations and interpretations. Any estimates of tax contingencies
contain assumptions and judgments about potential actions by taxing jurisdictions. Any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax
positions would be included as part of the income tax provision. The Company’s conclusions regarding uncertain tax positions may
be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon ongoing analysis of or changes in tax laws, regulations and interpretations
thereof as well as other factors.
Note 14 — 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 the Company’s Common Stock outstanding.
Basic net loss per share
is calculated using the weighted-average number of Common Stock outstanding during the periods. Diluted net loss per share is computed
by giving effect to all potential shares of Common Stock, including outstanding stock options, stock related to unvested restricted stock
units, and outstanding warrants to the extent dilutive. 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.

Legal Matters
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 the 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 due to the current
litigation and the uncertainty of the customer’s ability to repay the 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.
If the Company is unable
to realize revenue from its TTK Solution offerings on a timely basis or at all, or if it incurs an additional loss as a result of the
Bud & Mary’s claim, the Company’s business and financial performance will be adversely affected. On November 14, 2022,
the Company filed its answers and affirmative defenses to the Bud & Mary’s complaint and counterclaims. The Company is seeking,
among other relief, monetary damages in connection with the breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair
dealing, unjust enrichment, and enforcement of the guarantees. Bud & Mary’s is permitted to file an amended complaint during
October 2023, and Agrify will be permitted to make responsive filings, which may include an answer and counterclaim.

Bowdoin Construction Corp. v. Agrify Corporation, Bud & Mary’s Cultivation, Inc. and BMLC2, LLC ,
case no. 2382CV00173. The Bowdoin Complaint relates to a construction contract between Bowdoin and the Company relating to the property
that is the subject of the Bud & Mary’s Complaint, and alleges breach of contract by Bud & Mary’s and by the Company

The Company is entitled to indemnification by Bud & Mary’s and intends to vigorously defend this claim.
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. Since February 2021, the Company increased the purchase order with Mack to approximately $26.5 million towards production
of VFUs during 2021 and 2022. The Company believed the supply agreement with Mack would 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 believed this approach would result in both parties making a more informed decision with respect to the pricing and other
terms of the supply agreement with Mack.
On October 11, 2022, the
Company received a $ 9.4 million invoice from Mack for inventory purchased on the Company’s behalf to build VFUs. As part of the
terms of the contract manufacturing agreement, Mack had the contractual right to bill the Company for any inventory that had aged greater
than nine months. Due to the slowdown in the demand for the VFUs and the lack of a demand forecast that the Company could provide to the
vendor, Mack exercised the right to invoice the Company for the slow-moving inventory. As of December 31, 2022, the Company owed Mack
$ 8.4 million for purchased inventory on behalf of the Company to produce VFUs, which is included in accounts payable in the consolidated
balance sheet.
On March 2, 2023, Mack filed
an arbitration action seeking the amounts owed to Mack for purchased inventory. On October 27, 2023, and effective as of October 18, 2023,
Mack and the Company entered into a Modification and Settlement Agreement with respect to the dispute. See Note 17 –

interest. The Company has filed an answer denying liability on TRC’s claims and is proceeding with discovery.

of VFUs during 2021. Since February 2021, the Company increased the purchase order with Mack to approximately $ 26.5 million towards production
of VFUs during 2021 and 2022. The Company believed the supply agreement with Mack would 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 believed this approach would result in both parties making a more informed decision with respect to the pricing and other
terms of the supply agreement with Mack.
On October 11, 2022, the
Company received a $ 9.4 million invoice from Mack for inventory purchased on the Company’s behalf to build VFUs. As part of the
terms of the contract manufacturing agreement, Mack had the contractual right to bill the Company for any inventory that had aged greater
than nine months. Due to the slowdown in the demand for the VFUs and the lack of a demand forecast that the Company could provide to the
vendor, Mack exercised the right to invoice the Company for the slow-moving inventory. As of March 31, 2023, the Company owed Mack $ 8.4
million for purchased inventory on behalf of the Company to produce VFUs, which is included in accounts payable in the consolidated balance
sheet. On October 27, 2023, and effective as of October 18, 2023, Mack and the Company entered into a Modification and Settlement Agreement
with respect to the dispute. See Note 17 – Subsequent Events.
