The totality of our product offerings and service capabilities forms an unrivaled ecosystem in what has historically been a highly fragmented market. As a result, we believe we are well situated to create a dominant market position in the indoor agriculture sector. Agrify Corporation was incorporated in the state of Nevada on June 6, 2016, originally incorporated as Agrinamics, Inc. (or “Agrinamics”). On September 16, 2019, Agrinamics amended its articles of incorporation to reflect a name change to Agrify Corporation. Our corporate headquarters are located in Billerica, Massachusetts. We also lease properties located within various geographic regions in which we conduct business, including Colorado, Georgia, Massachusetts, Michigan, and Oregon.

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. 47 Recent Business Developments Private Placement On January 25, 2022, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Agreement”) with an institutional investor and other accredited investors for the sale of 12,253 shares (the “SA Shares”) of our 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 became exercisable six months from issuance. Each Pre-Funded Warrant is 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, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), and Stuart Wilcox, who previously served as our Chief Operating Officer, and at the time was a member of our Board of Directors, participated in the private placement on essentially the same terms as other investors, except for having a combined purchase price of $1,380.00 per share. The gross proceeds to us from the private placement were approximately $27.3 million, before deducting the placement agent’s fees and other offering expenses. Acquisition of Lab Society On February 1, 2022, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with LS Holdings Corp. (“Lab Society”), Lab Society NewCo, LLC, a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of us (“Merger Sub”), Michael S. Maibach Jr. as the Owner Representative thereunder, and each of the shareholders of Lab Society (collectively, the “Owners”), pursuant to which we agreed to acquire Lab Society. Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, we consummated the merger of Lab Society with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub surviving such merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of us (the “Lab Society Acquisition”). The aggregate consideration for the Lab Society Acquisition consisted of $4.0 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments for working capital, cash and indebtedness of Lab Society at closing; 2,128 shares of Common Stock (the “Buyer Shares”); and the Earn-out Consideration (as defined below), to the extent earned. We withheld 638 of the Buyer Shares issuable to the Owners (the “Holdback Lab Buyer Shares”) for the purpose of securing any post-closing adjustment owed to us and any claim for indemnification or payment of damages to which we may be entitled under the Merger Agreement. During the third quarter of 2022, 139 of the Holdback Lab Buyer Shares were forfeited after the finalization of the net working capital settlement. The remaining 499 Holdback Lab Buyer Shares were released following the twelve-month anniversary of the Closing Date in accordance with and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement. Additional information regarding our contingent consideration arrangements may be found in Note 4 – Fair Value Measures, included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. 48 The Merger Agreement includes customary post-closing adjustments, representations, and warranties and covenants of the parties. The Owners may become entitled to additional consideration with a value of up to $3.5 million based on the eligible net revenues achieved by the Lab Society business during the fiscal years ending December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2023, of which 50% will be payable in cash and the remaining 50% will be payable by issuing shares of Common Stock. The purchase price allocation for the business combination has been prepared on a preliminary basis and changes to those allocations may occur as additional information becomes available during the respective measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The estimated fair value at acquisition is $7.9 million and may be adjusted upon further review of the values assigned to identifiable intangible assets and goodwill.   Our initial fair value estimates related to the various identified intangible assets were determined under various valuation approaches including the Income Approach, Relief-from-Royalty Method, and Discounted Cash Flow Method. These valuation methods require management to project revenues, operating expenses, working capital investment, capital spending and cash flows for the reporting unit over a multiyear period, as well as determine the weighted-average cost of capital to be used as a discount rate. We amortize our intangible assets assuming no residual value over periods in which the economic benefit of these assets is consumed. Securities Purchase Agreement On March 14, 2022, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with an accredited investor (the “Investor”), we agreed to issue and sell to the Investor, in a private placement transaction, in exchange for the payment by the Investor of $65 million, less applicable expenses as set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement, a senior secured promissory note in an aggregate principal amount of $65 million (the “SPA Note”), and a warrant (the “SPA Warrant”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 34,406 shares of Common Stock. August 2022 Securities Exchange Agreement On August 18, 2022, we reached an agreement with the Investor to amend its existing SPA Note and entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the “August 2022 Exchange Agreement”). Pursuant to the August 2022 Exchange Agreement, we 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 a the Exchange Note with an aggregate original principal amount of $35.0 million and a new warrant to purchase 71,139 shares of Common Stock (the “Note Exchange Warrant”). Additionally, we exchanged the SPA Warrant for a new warrant for the same number of underlying shares but with a reduced exercise price (the “Modified Warrant” and, collectively with the Note Exchange Warrant, the “August 2022 Warrants”). Additional information regarding our August 2022 Warrants may be found in Note 1 – Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies and Note 4 – Fair Value Measures, included in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Exchange Note is a senior secured obligation of ours and ranks senior to all indebtedness of ours. 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 holder will be entitled to a cash sweep of 20% of the proceeds received by us in connection with any equity financing, which will reduce the outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note. At any time, we may prepay all of the Exchange Note by redemption at a price equal to 102.5% of the then-outstanding principal amount under the Note plus accrued but unpaid interest. The holder will also have the option of requiring us to redeem the Exchange Note on the one-year or two-year anniversaries of issuance at a price equal to the then-outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note plus accrued but unpaid interest, or if we undergo a fundamental change at a price equal to 102.5% of the then-outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note plus accrued but unpaid interest. 49 The Exchange Note imposes certain customary affirmative and negative covenants upon us, as well as covenants that restrict us and our subsidiaries from incurring any additional indebtedness or suffering any liens, subject to specified exceptions, restrict the ability of us and our subsidiaries from making certain investments, subject to specified exceptions, restrict the declaration of any dividends or other distributions, subject to specified exceptions, requires us not to exceed maximum levels of allowable cash spend while the Exchange Note is outstanding, and requires us to maintain minimum amounts of cash on hand. If an event of default under the Exchange Note occurs, the holder 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 holder), 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 holder has, subject to certain exceptions, the right to participate for up to 30% of any offering of debt, equity (other than an offering of solely Common Stock), or equity-linked securities, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock or other instrument or security, of us or our subsidiaries. The Modified Warrant has an exercise price of $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, has a term of five and one-half years from the date of issuance and will be exercisable on a cash basis, unless there is not an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Modified Warrant (the “Modified Warrant Shares”), in which case the Modified Warrant will also be exercisable on a cashless exercise basis at the holder’s election. 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, was exercisable upon issuance, and has a term of five and one-half years from the date of issuance and is exercisable on a cash basis, unless there is not an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant (the “Note Exchange Warrant Shares” and, together with the Modified Warrant Shares, the “Exchange Warrant Shares”), in which case the Note Exchange Warrant will also be exercisable on a cashless exercise basis at the holder’s election. Until we completed a qualified equity financing of at least $15.0 million, which requirement was satisfied with sales under the at-the-market continuous equity offering (“ATM” or “ATM Program”), the Note Exchange Warrant’s exercise price would have been reduced to the extent we issued securities for a lower purchase price. The Note Exchange Warrant also prohibited us, until following the completion of such qualified equity financing, from issuing warrants with more favorable or preferential terms and/or provisions. The August 2022 Warrants each provide that in no event will the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of such warrants result in the holder’s beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% of our shares of Common Stock outstanding at the time of exercise (which percentage may be decreased or increased by the holder, but to no greater than 9.99). Additionally, the August 2022 Warrants could not be exercised for more than an aggregate of 26,542 shares of Common Stock unless and until shareholder approval is obtained, which approval was obtained on October 14, 2022. March 2023 Securities Exchange Agreement On March 9, 2023 we entered into senior note with High Trail Special Situations LLC (“Holder”). for value received, promises to pay to High Trail Special Situations LLC (the “Initial Holder”), or its registered assigns, the principal sum of ten million dollars ($10,000,000) (such principal sum, the “Principal Amount”) on August 19, 2025, and to pay any outstanding interest thereon, as provided in this Note, in each case as provided in and subject to the other provisions of this Note, including the earlier redemption, repurchase or conversion of this Note. 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”). 50 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 case, to no greater than 9.99%. 51 The Company evaluated the embedded features in accordance with ASC 815-15-25 and determined the embedded features are not required to be bifurcated and separately measured at fair value. Interest expense related to the Convertible Notes described above was $170,974 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Accrued interest totaled $170,974 as of March 31, 2023. 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, we entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Canaccord Genuity LLC as the underwriter, pursuant to which we agreed to sell an aggregate of 594,232 shares of our 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 our Common Stock (the “Offering”). The combined public offering price for each share of Common Stock and accompanying two warrants was $13.00 per share, and the combined offering price for each Pre-Funded Warrant and accompanying two warrants was $12.98 per share. 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 our Common Stock then outstanding (subject to the right of the holder to increase or decrease such beneficial ownership limitation upon notice to us, provided that such limitation cannot exceed 9.99%) . 52 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 our Common Stock. Raymond Chang, our Chairman and CEO, participated in the Offering and purchased 115,385 shares of Common Stock and 230,769 warrants for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $1.5 million. We received aggregate gross proceeds to us from the Offering of 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. We intend 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. Impact of coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”) The extensive impact of the pandemic caused by COVID-19 has resulted and will likely continue to result in significant disruptions to the global economy, as well as businesses and capital markets around the world. In an effort to halt the outbreak of COVID-19, a number of countries, states, counties, and other jurisdictions have imposed, and may impose in the future, various measures, including but not limited to, voluntary and mandatory quarantines, stay-at-home orders, travel restrictions, limitations on gatherings of people, reduced operations, and extended closures of businesses. To date, although all of our operations are functioning, COVID-19 has continued to cause some disruptions to our business, such as some temporary delays in the delivery of our inventory. Although the ability of our suppliers to timely ship their goods has affected some of our deliveries, currently the difficulties experienced by our suppliers have not yet materially impacted our ability to deliver products to our customers. However, if this continues, it may negatively affect any inventory we may have and more significantly delay the delivery of merchandise to our customers, which in turn will adversely affect our revenues and results of operations. The extent to which COVID-19 and the related global economic crisis, affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and any recovery period, future actions taken by governmental authorities, central banks and other third parties (including new financial regulation and other regulatory reform) in response to the pandemic, and the effects on our produce, clients, vendors and employees. We continue to service our customers amid uncertainty and disruption linked to COVID-19 and we are actively managing our business to respond to its impact. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include assumptions about collection of accounts and notes receivable, the valuation and recognition of stock-based compensation expense, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and useful life of fixed assets and intangible assets. Financial Overview Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial position and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates, which include estimates related to accruals, stock-based compensation expense, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. We base our estimates on historical experience and other market-specific or other relevant assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates or assumptions. 53 Revenue Recognition Overview We generate revenue from the following sources: (1) equipment sales, (2) providing services and (3) construction contracts. In accordance with ASC 606 “Revenue Recognition”, we recognize revenue from contracts with customers using a five-step model, which is described below: ● identify the customer contract; ● identify performance obligations that are distinct; ● determine the transaction price; ● allocate the transaction price to the distinct performance obligations; and ● recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied. Identify the customer contract A customer contract is generally identified when there is approval and commitment from both use and its customer, the rights have been identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability, and consideration is probable. Specifically, we obtain written/electronic signatures on contracts and a purchase order, if said purchase orders are issued in the normal course of business by the customer. Identify performance obligations that are distinct A performance obligation is a promise by us to provide a distinct good or service or a series of distinct goods or services. A good or service that is promised to a customer is distinct if the customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer, and our promise to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. Determine the transaction price The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer, excluding sales taxes that are collected on behalf of government agencies. Allocate the transaction price to distinct performance obligations The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the relative standalone selling prices (“SSP”) of the goods or services being provided to the customer. Our contracts typically contain multiple performance obligations, for which we account for individual performance obligations separately, if they are distinct. The standalone selling price reflects the price we would charge for a specific piece of equipment or service if it was sold separately in similar circumstances and to similar customers. 54 Recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied Revenue is recognized when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of a promised product or service to a customer. Significant Judgments We enter into contracts that may include various combinations of equipment, services and construction, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. Contracts with customers often include promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together may require significant judgment. Once we determine the performance obligations, it determines the transaction price, which includes estimating the amount of variable consideration to be included in the transaction price, if any. We then allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract based on the SSP. The corresponding revenue is recognized as the related performance obligations are satisfied. Judgment is required to determine the SSP for each distinct performance obligation. We determine SSP based on the price at which the performance obligation is sold separately and the methods of estimating SSP under the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606-10-32-33. If the SSP is not observable through past transactions, we estimate the SSP, taking into account available information such as market conditions, expected margins, and internally approved pricing guidelines related to the performance obligations. We license our software as a SaaS type subscription license, whereby the customer only has a right to access the software over a specified time period. The full value of the contract is recognized ratably over the contractual term of the SaaS subscription, adjusted monthly if tiered pricing is relevant. We typically satisfy our performance obligations for equipment sales when equipment is made available for shipment to the customer; for services sales as services are rendered to the customer and for construction contracts both as services are rendered and when contract is completed. We utilize the cost-plus margin method to determine the SSP for equipment and build-out services. This method is based on the cost of the services from third parties, plus a reasonable markup that we believe is reflective of a market-based reseller margin. We determine the SSP for services in time and materials contracts by observable prices in standalone services arrangements. We estimate variable consideration in the form of royalties, revenue share, monthly fees, and service credits are estimated at contract inception and updated at the end of each reporting period if additional information becomes available. Variable consideration is typically not subject to constraint. Changes to variable consideration were not material for the periods presented. If a contract has payment terms that differ from the timing of revenue recognition, we will assess whether the transaction price for those contracts include a significant financing component. We have elected the practical expedient that permits an entity to not adjust for the effects of a significant financing component if we expect that at the contract inception, the period between when the entity transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service, will be one year or less. For those contracts in which the period exceeds the one-year threshold, this assessment, as well as the quantitative estimate of the financing component and its relative significance, requires judgment. Accordingly, we impute interest on such contracts at an agreed upon interest rate and will present the financing components separately as financial income. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we did not have any such financial income. 55 Payment terms with customers typically require payment 30 days from invoice date. Our agreements with customers do not provide for any refunds for services or products and therefore no specific reserve for such is maintained. In the infrequent instances where customers raise a concern over delivered products or services, we have endeavored to remedy the concern and all costs related to such matters have been insignificant in all periods presented. We have elected to treat shipping and handling activities after the customer obtains control of the goods as a fulfillment cost and not as a promised good or service. Accordingly, we will accrue all fulfillment costs related to the shipping and handling of consumer goods at the time of shipment. We have payment terms with its customers of one year or less and has elected the practical expedient applicable to such contracts not to consider the time value of money. Sales, value add, and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. We receive payment from customers based on specified terms that are generally less than 30 days from the satisfaction of performance obligations. There are no contract assets related to performance under the contract. The difference in the opening and closing balances of our deferred revenue primarily results from the timing difference between our performance and the customer’s payment. We fulfill obligations under a contract with a customer by transferring products and services in exchange for consideration from the customer. Accounts receivables are recorded when the customer has been billed or the right to consideration is unconditional. We recognize deferred revenue when consideration has been received or an amount of consideration is due from the customer, and we have a future obligation to transfer certain proprietary products. In accordance with ASC 606-10-50-13, we are required to include disclosure on its remaining performance obligations as of the end of the current reporting period. Due to the nature of our contracts, these reporting requirements are not applicable. The majority of our remaining contracts meet certain exemptions as defined in ASC 606-10-50-14 through 606-10-50-14A, including (i) performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less and (ii) the right to invoice practical expedient. We generally provide a one-year warranty on our products for materials and workmanship but may provide multiple year warranties as negotiated, and will pass on the warranties from its vendors, if any, which generally covers this one-year period. In accordance with ASC 450-20-25, we accrue for product warranties when the loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. The reserve for warranty returns is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. Accounting for Business Combinations We allocated the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, including in-process research and development assets, and liabilities assumed, based upon their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. These fair values are typically estimated with assistance from independent valuation specialists. The purchase price allocation process requires us to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date with respect to intangible assets, contractual support obligations assumed, contingent consideration arrangements, and pre-acquisition contingencies. Although we believe the assumptions and estimates we have made in the past have been reasonable and appropriate, they are based in part on historical experience and information obtained from the management of the acquired companies and are inherently uncertain. 56 Examples of critical estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets we have acquired or may acquire in the future include but are not limited to: ● future expected cash flows from software license sales, support agreements, consulting contracts, other customer contracts, and acquired developed technologies; ● expected costs to develop in-process research and development into commercially viable products and estimated cash flows from the projects when completed; ● the acquired company’s brand and competitive position, as well as assumptions about the period of time the acquired brand will continue to be used in the combined company’s product portfolio; ● cost of capital and discount rates; and ● estimating the useful lives of acquired assets as well as the pattern or manner in which the assets will amortize. The fair value estimates related to the various identified intangible assets were determined under various valuation approaches including the Income Approach, Relief-from-Royalty Method, and Discounted Cash Flow Method. These valuation methods require management to project revenues, operating expenses, working capital investment, capital spending and cash flows for the reporting unit over a multiyear period, as well as determine the weighted-average cost of capital to be used as a discount rate. Goodwill and Intangible Assets Amortization of acquired intangible assets is the result of the acquisition of TriGrow, which occurred in 2020, the acquisition of Sinclair which occurred in 2021, the acquisition of PurePressure, which also occurred in 2021, and the acquisition of Lab Society, which occurred in 2022. As a result of these transactions, customer relationships, acquired developed technology, non-compete agreements and trade names were identified as intangible assets, and are amortized over their estimated useful lives. We recognize the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment annually on December 2 or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the goodwill may not be recoverable. The Company has determined it is a single reporting unit for the purpose of conducting the goodwill impairment assessment. A goodwill impairment charge is recorded if the amount by which 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 a decline in the Company’s market value as a result of a significant decline in the Company’s stock price. There have been no impairment charges recorded for three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Capitalization of Internal Software Development Costs We capitalize certain software engineering efforts related to the continued development of Agrify Insights software under ASC 985-20. Costs incurred during the application development phase are only capitalized once technical feasibility has been established and the work performed will result in new or additional functionality. The types of costs capitalized during the application development phase include employee compensation, as well as consulting fees for third-party software developers working on these projects. Costs related to the research and development are expensed as incurred until technical feasibility is established as well as post-implementation activities. Internal-use software is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset, which ranges from two to five years. Income Taxes We account for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized. 57 We follow the provisions of ASC 740-10-25-5, “Basic Recognition Threshold.” When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10-25-6, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the consolidated financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. We believe our tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, we have not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. We recognize the benefit of a tax position when it is effectively settled. ASC 740-10-25-10, “Basic Recognition Threshold” provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits. ASC 740-10-25-10 clarifies that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion of an examination by a taxing authority. For tax positions considered effectively settled, we recognize the full amount of the tax benefit. Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation We follow the provisions of ASC Topic 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation.” ASC Topic 718 establishes standards surrounding the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. ASC Topic 718 focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions, such as options issued under our Stock Option Plans. The fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model incorporates certain assumptions for inputs including a risk-free market interest rate, expected dividend yield of the underlying Common Stock, expected option life, and expected volatility in the market value of the underlying Common Stock. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because our stock options and warrants have characteristics different from those of our traded stock, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of such stock options. The risk-free interest rate is based upon quoted market yields for United States Treasury debt securities with a term similar to the expected term. The expected dividend yield is based upon our history of having never issued a dividend and management’s current expectation of future action surrounding dividends. We calculate the expected volatility of the stock price based on the corresponding volatility of our peer group stock price for a period consistent with the underlying instrument’s expected term. The expected lives for such grants were based on the simplified method for employees and directors. In arriving at stock-based compensation expense, we estimate the number of stock-based awards that will be forfeited due to employee turnover. Our forfeiture assumption is based primarily on its turn-over historical experience. If the actual forfeiture rate is higher than the estimated forfeiture rate, then an adjustment will be made to increase the estimated forfeiture rate, which will result in a decrease to the expense recognized in our financial statements. If the actual forfeiture rate is lower than the estimated forfeiture rate, then an adjustment will be made to lower the estimated forfeiture rate, which will result in an increase to expense recognized in our financial statements. The expense we recognize in future periods will be affected by changes in the estimated forfeiture rate and may differ significantly from amounts recognized in the current period. It is important that the discussion of our operating results that follows be read in conjunction with the critical accounting policies disclosed above. 58 Results of Operations Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 The following table summarizes our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022: Three months ended March 31, (In thousands, except share and per share data) 2023 2022 Revenue (including $46 and $863 from related parties, respectively) $ 5,804 $ 26,021 Cost of goods sold 4,816 21,851 Gross profit 988 4,170 General and administrative 6,931 9,759 Selling and marketing 1,590 2,090 Research and development 735 2,084 Change in contingent consideration (684 ) — Total operating expenses 8,572 13,933 Loss from operations (7,584 ) (9,763 ) Interest (expense) income, net (799 ) 559 Change in fair value of warrant liabilities 2,672 10,785 Other income (expense) 4 — Loss on extinguishment of notes payable (4,620 ) — Other income (expense), net (2,743 ) 11,344 Net (loss) income before income taxes (10,327 ) 1,581 Income tax benefit — 200 Net (loss) income (10,327 ) 1,781 Income attributable to non-controlling interest — (1 ) Net (loss) income attributable to Agrify Corporation $ (10,327 ) $ 1,780 Net (loss) income per share attributable to Common Stockholders – basic $ (9.63 ) $ 14.48 Net (loss) income per share attributable to Common Stockholders – diluted $ (9.63 ) $ 13.79 Weighted average common shares outstanding - basic (1) 1,072,292 122,946 Weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted (1) 1,072,292 129,045 Revenues Our goal is to provide our customers with a variety of products to address their entire indoor agriculture needs. Our core product offering includes our Agrify Vertical Farming Units (or “VFUs”) and Agrify Integrated Grow Racks with our Agrify Insights software, which are supplemented with environmental control products, grow lights, facility build-out services and extraction equipment. We continue to monitor and address COVID-19 pandemic impacts on our supply chain. Although the availability of various products is dependent on our suppliers, their locations, and the extent to which they are impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, we are proactively working with manufacturers to meet the needs of our customers during the pandemic. Product shortages have generally led to increases in prices globally, with significant impacts to sales and interim profits. We generate revenue from sales of cultivation solutions, including ancillary products and services, Agrify Insights software, facility build-outs and extraction equipment and solutions. We believe that our product mix form an integrated ecosystem which allows us to be engaged with our potential customers from early stages of the grow cycle — first during the facility build-out, to the choice of cultivation solutions, running the grow business with our Agrify Insights software and finally, our extraction, post-processing and testing services to transform harvest into a sellable product. We believe that delivery of each solution in the various stages in the process will generate sales of additional solutions and services. 59 The following table provides a breakdown of our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022: Three months ended March 31, (In thousands) 2023 2022 Change % Change Cultivation solutions, including ancillary products and services $ 169 $ 382 $ (213 ) (56 )% Agrify Insights software 30 1 29 2900 % Facility build-outs 627 13,211 (12,584 ) (95 )% Extraction solutions 4,978 12,427 (7,449 ) 100 % Total revenue $ 5,804 $ 26,021 $ (20,217 ) (78 )% Revenues decreased by $20.2 million, or 78% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The comparative decrease in revenue was generated primarily from decreases in revenue from factory build-outs and extraction solutions. Extraction division revenues totaled $5.0 million in the first quarter of 2023. Additionally, design and build revenues decreased by $12.6 million due to the continued build-out of facilities under our TTK Solutions. Cost of Goods Sold Cost of goods sold represents a combination of the following: construction-related costs associated with our facility build-outs, internal and outsourced labor and material costs associated with the assembly of both cultivation equipment (primarily VFUs) and extraction equipment, as well as labor and parts costs associated with the sale or provision of other products and services. The following table provides a breakdown of our cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022: Three months ended March 31, (In thousands) 2023 2022 Change % Change Cultivation solutions, including ancillary products and services $ 533 $ 405 $ 128 32 % Agrify Insights software — — — — % Facility build-outs 720 13,076 (12,356 ) (94 )% Extraction solutions 3,563 8,370 (4,807 ) 100 % Total cost of goods sold $ 4,816 $ 21,851 $ (17,035 ) (78 )% Cost of goods sold decreased by $17.0 million, or 78%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The comparative quarterly decrease in cost of goods sold is associated with decreases in cost of goods sold related to factory build-outs and extraction solutions. Gross Profit (Loss) Three months ended March 31, (In thousands) 2023 2022 Change % Change Gross profit $ 988 $ 4,170 $ (3,182 ) (76 )% 60 Gross profit totaled $1.0 million, or 17.0% of total revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to a gross loss of $4.2 million, or 16.0% of total revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The comparative $3.2 million first-quarter year over year decrease in gross profit, as well as the comparative decrease in gross profit margin, is primarily attributable to a smaller decrease in costs of goods sold relative to the decrease in revenue for the period. During the first quarter of 2023, we realized a gross profit margin of 28% associated with our extraction solutions revenue, while we realized a gross profit margin of approximately (215)% on our cultivation-related revenues. On a forward-looking basis, with the full year benefit of anticipated margin contribution associated with the extraction-related revenue contributions, the Company anticipates that gross margin performance, aided by our extraction-related equipment sales, will be in a mid-teens range. We anticipate that we will be able to improve upon that expected gross profit margin performance once we are able to generate meaningful software and production fee revenues from our TTK Solutions, which we currently expect to begin in the late third or early fourth quarter of 2023. General and Administrative Three months ended March 31, (In thousands) 2023 2022 Change % Change General and administrative $ 6,931 $ 9,759 $ (2,828 ) (29 )% General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses consist principally of salaries and related costs for personnel, including stock-based compensation and travel expenses, associated with executive and other administrative functions. Other G&A expenses include, but are not limited to, professional fees for legal, consulting, depreciation and amortization and accounting services, as well as facility-related costs. G&A expense decreased by $2.8 million, or 29%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease is attributable to payroll, benefits and related expenses decrease of $1.3 million, a decrease in acquisition-related expenses of $1.3 million, an increase in consulting and other related expenses of $652 thousand, a decrease in insurance expenses of $207 thousand, a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $639 thousand. Selling and Marketing Three months ended March 31, (In thousands) 2023 2022 Change % Change Selling and marketing $ 1,590 $ 2,090 $ (500 ) (24 )% Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs of personnel, travel expenses, trade shows and advertising expenses. Selling and marketing ex penses decreased by $0.5 million, or 24%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease is attributable to a decrease in payroll, advertising and trade show expenses, along with an increase in travel and other expenses. Research and Development Three months ended March 31, (In thousands) 2023 2022 Change % Change Research and development $ 735 $ 2,084 $ (1,349 ) (65 )% Research and development (“R&D”) expenses consisted primarily of costs incurred for the development of our Agrify Insights software and next generation VFUs, which includes: ● employee-related expenses, including salaries, benefits, and travel; ● expenses incurred by the subcontractor under agreements to provide engineering work related to the development of our next generation VFUs; ● expenses related to our facilities, depreciation, and other expenses, which include direct and allocated expenses for rent and maintenance of facilities, insurance and other supplies. 61 R&D expense decreased by $$1.3 million, or 65%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease is attributable to the personnel and facility costs associated with the continued development of our VFUs, specifically related to improving the individual unit cooling and humidity environments. We expect to continue to invest in future developments of our VFUs, Agrify Insights software and our extraction products. As a percentage of net revenue, R&D expenses were 12.7% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to 8.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Other Income (Expense), Net Three months ended March 31, (In thousands) 2023 2022 Change % Change Interest income (expense), net $ (799 ) $ 559 $ (1,358 ) (243 )% Loss on extinguishment of notes payable (4,620 ) — $ (4,620 ) N/A Change in fair value of warrant liabilities 2,672 10,785 (8,113 ) (75 )% Other income (expense) 4 — 4 N/A Total other income (expense), net $ (2,743 ) $ 11,344 $ (14,087 ) (124 )% Interest income (expense), net decreased by $1.4 million, or 243%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease in interest income is attributable mainly to decreases in interest from marketable securities and interest income from TTK Solutions. The change in fair value of warrant liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 is related to the fair value remeasurement of warrants issued during March, August, and December, 2022. Income (Loss) Attributable to Non-Controlling Interest We consolidate the results of operations of two less than wholly-owned entities into our consolidated results of operations. On December 8, 2019, we formed Agrify Valiant LLC, a joint-venture limited liability company in which we are 60% majority owner and Valiant-America, LLC owns 40%. Agrify Valiant LLC started its operations during the second quarter of 2020. On January 22, 2020, as part of the acquisition of TriGrow, we received TriGrow’s 75% interest in Agrify Brands, LLC (formerly TriGrow Brands, LLC), a licensor of an established portfolio of consumer brands that utilize our grow technology. The license of these brands is ancillary to the sale of our VFUs and provides a means to differentiate customers’ products in the marketplace. It is not a material aspect of our business and we have not realized any royalty income. Accordingly, we are currently evaluating whether to continue this legacy business from an operational standpoint, as well as from a legal and regulatory perspective. Loss attributable to non-controlling interest represents the portion of profit (or loss) that are attributable to non-controlling interest calculated as a product of the net income of the entity multiplied by the percentage of ownership held by the non-controlling interest. 62 Liquidity and Capital Resources As of March 31, 2023, our principal sources of liquidity were cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities totaling $1.5 million and $— million in restricted cash. Our current working capital needs are to support revenue growth, to fund construction and equipment financing commitments associated with our TTK Solutions, manage inventory to meet demand forecasts and support operational growth. Our long-term financial needs primarily include working capital requirements and capital expenditures. We anticipate that we will allocate a significant portion of our current balance of working capital to satisfy the financing requirements of our current and future TTK arrangements. These arrangements require a significant amount of upfront capital necessary to fund construction, associated with facility build-outs, and equipment. There are many factors that may negatively impact our available sources of funds in the future, including the ability to generate cash from operations, raise debt capital and raise cash from the issuance of our securities. The amount of cash generated from operations is dependent upon factors such as the successful execution of our business strategy and general economic conditions. We may opportunistically raise debt capital, subject to market and other conditions. Additionally, as part of our growth strategies, we may also raise debt capital for strategic alternatives and general corporate purposes. If additional financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to raise such capital on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, our business, operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected. Indebtedness We entered into one Loan Agreement and Promissory Note with Bank of America pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. We received total proceeds of approximately $779 thousand from the unsecured PPP Loan which was originally scheduled to mature in May 2022. We applied for forgiveness on the $779 thousand of our PPP Loan however was denied by the SBA. On June 23, 2022, we received a letter from Bank of America agreeing to extend the maturity date to May 7, 2025 and bears interest at a rate of 1.00% per year. The PPP loan is payable in 34 equal combined monthly principal and interest payments of approximately $24 thousand that commenced on August 7, 2022. On March 14, 2022, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an institutional investor. The Purchase Agreement provides for the issuance of the SPA Note in the aggregate amount of $65.0 million and a SPA Warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 34,406 shares of Common Stock, with the potential for two potential subsequent closings for notes with an original principal amount of $35.0 million each. On August 18, 2022, we entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement. Pursuant to the August 2022 Exchange Agreement, we 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 Note Exchange Warrant to purchase 71,139 shares of Common Stock. Additionally, we exchanged the SPA Warrant for a Modified Warrant for the same number of underlying shares but with a reduced exercise price. On March 8, 2023, the Company entered into a new Securities Exchange Agreement. Pursuant to the March 2023 Exchange Agreement, we prepaid approximately $10.3 million in principal amount under the Exchange Note and exchanged $10.0 million in principal amount of the remaining balance of the Exchange Note for a new senior secured convertible note (the “Convertible Note”). The Convertible Note is a senior secured obligation and will rank senior to all of our indebtedness. The Convertible Note will mature on August 19, 2025 (the “Maturity Date”) and has a 9.0% annualized interest rate, with interest to be paid monthly, in cash. 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 us in connection with any other equity financing, which will reduce the outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note. On October 27, 2023, CP Acquisitions LLC, and entity affiliated with and controlled by Raymond Chang, acquired the Exchange Note and the Convertible Note. As of October 30, 2023, there was approximately $6.7 million outstanding under the Exchange Note and $8.8 million outstanding under the Convertible Note. 63 At any time, we may prepay all of the Exchange Note by redemption at a price equal to 102.5% of the then-outstanding principal amount under the Note plus accrued but unpaid interest. The holder will also have the option of requiring us to redeem the Exchange Note on the one-year or two-year anniversaries of issuance at a price equal to the then-outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note plus accrued but unpaid interest, or if we undergo a fundamental change at a price equal to 102.5% of the then-outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note plus accrued but unpaid interest. Cash Flows The following table presents the major components of net cash flows from and used in operating, investing, and financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022: (In thousands) March 31, 2023 March 31, 2022 Net cash (used in) provided by: Operating activities $ (9,469 ) $ (30,875 ) Investing activities 9,795 (13,365 ) Financing activities (9,307 ) 87,431 Net increase in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash $ (8,981 ) $ 43,191 Cash Flow from Operating Activities For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we incurred a net loss of $10.3 million, which included $0.4 million related to depreciation and amortization, $— related to amortization of debt issuance costs, $0.9 of stock based compensation expense, and $2.7 related to the change in fair value of warrant liabilities. Net cash was reduced by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $2.6 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded net income of $1.8 million, which included a non-cash gain related to the remeasurement of warrant liabilities of $10.8 million, non-cash expenses of $1.1 million related to depreciation and amortization, $1.0 million in connection with the issuance and acceleration of stock options, debt issuance costs of $2.7 million, non-cash interest income of $0.4 million related to TTK Solutions, and gain attributed to non-controlling interest in the amount of $1 thousand. Net cash was reduced by a $0.8 million increase in accounts receivable, a $2.4 million decrease in deferred revenue, a $16.4 million increase in inventory due to demand forecast, and a $3.0 million increase in prepaid expenses, a $2.1 million increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $2.8 million decrease in accounts payable. Cash Flow from Investing Activities For the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash provided by investing activities was $9.8 million, which included cash outflows of $0.1 million in net purchases of property, plant and equipment and $0.6 in issuances of notes receivable and cash inflows of $10.4 million related to proceeds from sales of securities. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in investing activities was $13.4 million, which included cash outflows of $6.4 million in net purchases of marketable securities, $3.5 million paid in connection with our 2022 acquisitions of Lab Society, $12.5 million related to the issuance of TTK-related loans receivable, and $3.7 million of expenditures for property and equipment. 64 Cash Flow from Financing Activities For the three months ended March 31, 2023, net cash used in financing activities was $9.3 million. Net cash used in financing activities was primarily driven by repayments of notes payable of $10.7 million, proceeds from at-the-market offerings of $1.5 million, and proceeds from ESPP shares of $0.03 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash provided by financing activities was $87.4 million. Net cash provided by financing activities was primarily driven by the Company’s two private placements during 2022. The Company received $65.0 million in net proceeds from our issuance of debt and warrants in a private placement, and $25.8 million in net proceeds from our issuance of Common Stock and warrants in a private placement. Additionally, the Company received $11 thousand in proceeds from the exercise of stock options and warrants. Each of the above inflows of cash was offset by $81 thousand in payments relating to financing leases. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements During the periods presented, we did not have, nor do we currently have, any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. We are therefore not exposed to the financing, liquidity, market, or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in those types of relationships. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Part I, Item, 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” discusses our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. These estimates are based on our knowledge and understanding of current conditions and actions that we may take in the future. Changes in these estimates will occur as a result of the passage of time and the occurrence of future events. Subsequent changes in these estimates may have a significant impact on our financial condition and results of operations and are recorded in the period in which they become known. We have identified the following estimates that, in our opinion, are subjective in nature, require the exercise of judgment and involve complex analysis: the fair value of derivative assets and liabilities, goodwill impairment assessment, revenue recognition and cost of goods sold. The significant accounting policies and estimates that have been adopted and followed in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements are detailed in Note 1 - Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies included in our 2022 Annual Report and Note 1 - Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies to our consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. There have been no changes in these policies and estimates that had a significant impact on the financial condition and results of operations for the periods covered in this Quarterly Report. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Adopted For more information on recently issued accounting pronouncements are included within Note 1 - Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, included elsewhere in the notes to consolidated financial statements covered under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. 65 New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted For more information on new accounting pronouncements not yet adopted are included within Note 1 - Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, included elsewhere in the notes to consolidated financial statements covered under Part I, Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide information required by this Item.
