Note 1 — Overview, Basis of Presentation
and Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
Agrify Corporation (“Agrify”
or the “Company”) is a 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 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.
Nasdaq Deficiency Notice
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.
On November 16, 2023, the
Company received a notice from Nasdaq that the Company remains noncompliant with the Listing Rule as a result of its failure to file
its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023 with the SEC by the required filing date.
On December 1, 2023, the
Company received a notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that because the Company reported stockholders’
deficit of $( 17.17 ) million in its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the Company was no longer in compliance with Nasdaq
Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Primary Equity Listing Rule”), which requires that listed companies maintain a minimum of $ 2.5
million in stockholders’ equity. In response, the Company timely requested a hearing before a Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”),
which stayed any further action by the Listing Qualifications Staff. The hearing was held on January 11, 2024. The Company arrived at
the hearing having previously cured any additional grounds for delisting as a result of delinquent periodic filings during 2023 that
were filed prior to the hearing.
On January 30, 2024, the
Company received formal notice that the Panel had granted the Company’s request for an exception through April 15, 2024 to evidence
compliance with the Listing Rule, which was subsequently extended to May 15, 2024. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing rules or maintain its listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If the Company’s
common stock is delisted, it could be more difficult to buy or sell the Company’s common stock or to obtain accurate quotations,
and the price of the Company’s common stock could suffer a material decline. Delisting could also impair the Company’s ability
to raise capital.
On March 5, 2024, the Company
received a deficiency letter from the Staff of 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
continued listing on the Nasdaq Stock Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Requirement”). The Notice
has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A),
the Company has 180 calendar days to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Requirement. The compliance period for the Company will expire
on September 3, 2024.
Restatement of Previously Issued Quarterly Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
As further described below, our unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements covering the quarterly reporting period ended March 31, 2024 have been revised to reflect the correction
of errors.
6
Restatement Background
The need for the restatement arose out of the results of certain reassessment
by the Company of the accounting for the settlement agreement entered into by the Company with Mack Molding Co which became effective
in the first quarter of 2024 (See Note 14 - Commitments and Contingencies). Management determined that the gain from the derecognized
contingent liability should be recognized fully in Q1, rather than over time as previously reported. Consequently, the Company concluded
that the accounting treatment applied in the first quarter of 2024 was not appropriate. Therefore, the Company misstated inventory, accounts
payable, notes payable, accumulated deficit and total stockholders’ equity (deficit), on the face of the unaudited condensed consolidated
balance sheet as of March 31, 2024, and cost of goods sold, general and administrative expenses, gain on settlement of contingent liabilities,
and interest income (expense), net, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations, for the three months ended March
31, 2024. The Company principally attributes the errors to a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting, as disclosed
in Item II, Part 9A of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company has commenced procedures to remediate the material weaknesses. However,
these material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable remedial actions have been fully implemented and the
Company has concluded that these controls are operating effectively for a sufficient period of time.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
These interim unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements have been included. The results reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for any interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. The accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
and do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).
Certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been
condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s
audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2024.
Accounting for Wholly-Owned
Subsidiaries
The accompanying unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States (“U.S. 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.
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.
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.
8
The Company has incurred
operating losses since its inception and has negative cash flows from operations and a working capital deficit. The Company also has
an accumulated deficit of $ 261.6 million as of March 31, 2024. 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 market. As of March 31, 2024, the Company
had $ 0.1 million of cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. The Company had no restricted cash as of March 31, 2024. Current
liabilities were $ 26.7 million as of March 31, 2024.
These unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company believes these conditions raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within the next twelve-months from the date these unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements are available to be issued. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its
ability to obtain the necessary debt or equity financing to continue operations until the Company begins generating sufficient cash flows
from operations to meet its obligations. If the Company is unable raise additional funds, it may be forced to cease operations.
On February 28,
2024, the company raised net proceeds of $ 2.2 million via the issuance of common stock and prefunded warrants in a public offering through
Alexander Capital and is recorded within common stock and additional paid-in capital on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated
balance sheet. The Company intends to raise additional capital later this year to support its 2024 and 2025 funding needs. The Company
also continues to make additional adjustments in headcount, salary, travel, sales and marketing spending, but there is no guarantee that
these ongoing cost-cutting efforts or capital raises will be sufficient to maintain operations.
There is no assurance
that the Company will ever be profitable. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to
reflect the potential future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities
that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the
Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 loans receivable, the valuation and recognition of stock-based compensation expense, valuation allowance for
deferred tax assets, the valuation of inventory, and useful life of property and equipment. 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, the Company 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.
The Company regularly
evaluates its assets, including asset groups or reporting units, for impairment in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company is aware of
the impact that prolonged net losses can have on the fair value of underlying assets and the overall company. The Company is committed
to ensuring that the carrying amounts of its assets are appropriately assessed and adjusted for any impairment, reflecting a true and
fair view of its financial position.
Accounts Receivable, Net and Loans Receivable,
Net
Accounts
receivable, net, primarily consists of amounts for goods and services that are billed and currently due from customers. The composition
of loan receivable, net is detailed in Note 5 - Loans Receivable. In accordance with ASC 310-10, accounts receivable and loan receivable
balances are presented net of an allowance for credit losses, which are an estimate of billed or borrowed 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 or borrower collection matters, including the aging of unpaid accounts
receivable and changes in customer or borrower financial conditions. Accounts and loans 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, marketable
securities, accounts receivable, and loans 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 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.
During the year three -month
period ended March 31, 2024, the Company has one customer that comprised approximately 1 % of its revenue and two customers that comprised
approximately 47 % of its accounts receivable balance.
During the year three -month
period ended March 31, 2023, the Company has one customer that comprised approximately 11 % of its revenue and two customers that comprised
approximately 84 % of it accounts receivable balance.
9
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 a physical inventory
count at least once annually at all inventory locations.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment
are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses are recognized using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful life of each asset, as follows:
Estimated Useful Life (Years)
Computer and office equipment
2 to 3
Furniture and fixtures
2
Software
3
Vehicles
5
Research and development of laboratory equipment
5
Machinery and equipment
3 to 5
Leased equipment
5 to 13
Trade show assets
3 to 5
Leasehold improvements
Lower of estimated useful life or remaining lease term
The estimated useful
lives of the Company’s property and equipment are periodically assessed to determine if changes are appropriate. The Company charges
maintenance and repairs to 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 condensed consolidated balance sheets and any resulting gain
or loss is included in the condensed 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.
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 unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial
instruments consist of cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, warrant liabilities, and
loans receivable. Refer to Note 4 - Fair Value Measures, included elsewhere in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements for details of the Company’s financial instruments.
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;
10
● 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.
Judgment is required
to determine the SSP for each distinct performance obligation. The Company determines SSP based on the price at which the performance
obligation is sold separately and the methods of estimating SSP under the guidance of ASC 606-10-32-33. If the SSP is not observable
through past transactions, the Company estimates the SSP, taking into account available information such as market conditions, expected
margins, and internally approved pricing guidelines related to the performance obligations. The Company licenses its software as a service
(“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 the 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.
11
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. As of March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, 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
contract liabilities 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 receivable are recorded when the customer has been billed or the right to consideration is unconditional.
The Company recognizes a contract liability when consideration has been received or an amount of consideration is due from the customer,
and the Company has a future obligation to transfer certain proprietary products.
In accordance with ASC 606-10-50-13,
the Company is required to include disclosure on its remaining performance obligations as of the end of the current reporting period.
Due to the nature of the Company’s contracts, these reporting requirements are not applicable. The majority of the Company’s
remaining contracts meet certain exemptions as defined in ASC 606-10-50-14 through 606-10-50-14A, including (i) performance obligation
is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less and (ii) the right to invoice practical expedient.
The Company generally
provides a one-year warranty on its products for materials and workmanship but may provide multiple year warranties as negotiated, and
generally transfers to its customers the warranties it receives from its vendors, if any, which generally cover this one-year period.
In accordance with ASC 450-20-25, the Company accrues for product warranties when the loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated.
The Company maintained a reserve for warranty returns of $ 0.4 million and $ 0.4 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
The Company’s reserve for warranty returns is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in its unaudited condensed
consolidated balance sheets. Additional information regarding the Company’s warranty reserve may be found in Note 3 – Supplemental
Consolidated Balance Sheet Information, included elsewhere in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Research and Development Costs
The Company expenses research
and development costs as incurred. Research and development expenses include payroll, employee benefits and other expenses associated
with product development. The Company incurs research and development costs associated with the development and enhancement of both hardware
and software products associated with its cultivation and extraction equipment, as well as its SaaS-based software offering, Agrify Insights™
cultivation software (“Agrify Insights™”).
Net Loss Per Share
The Company presents basic and diluted net (loss) income per share
attributable to common stockholders in conformity with the one-class method. The Company computes basic (loss) income per share by dividing
net (loss) income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding. Diluted (loss) income per
share adjusts basic (loss) income per share for the potentially dilutive impact of convertible notes, stock options, restricted stock
units and warrants. As the Company has reported losses for the three months ended March 31, 2023, all potentially dilutive securities
including convertible notes, stock options, restricted stock units and warrants, are anti-dilutive, and accordingly, basic net loss per
share equals diluted net loss per share for that period. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company adjusts the net income
available to common stockholders and the weighted average common stock outstanding for the effect of dilutive securities as presented
within Note 13 — Net (Loss) Income Per Share.
Net loss per share calculations
for all periods have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split effected on July 5, 2023. Net loss per share was calculated based
on the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding.

Recently Announced Accounting Pronouncements
On December 14, 2023,
the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures , a final standard on improvements to income tax disclosures.
The standard requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on
income taxes paid. The standard applies to all entities subject to income taxes and is intended to benefit investors by providing more
detailed income tax disclosures that would be useful in making capital allocation decisions. For public business entities (PBEs), the
new requirements will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The guidance will be applied on a prospective
basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the effect of this
guidance on its financial statements.
Other
recent accounting pronouncements did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or
future condensed consolidated financial statements.
Note 2 — Revenue and Contract Liabilities
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 a 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-materials 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.

Construction in Progress
(“CIP”) includes all direct and indirect costs related to the construction, development, or acquisition of tangible property
and equipment that is not yet ready for use. All costs incurred during the construction phase are accumulated in the CIP account. Costs
remain in the CIP account until the asset is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Once the asset is ready for use,
the total accumulated costs are transferred from the CIP account to the appropriate property and equipment account. The asset is then
depreciated over its estimated useful life from the date it is placed into service. CIP is reviewed regularly to ensure that all costs
are accurate and that the project is progressing as planned. Any indication of impairment is assessed, and if the carrying amount exceeds
the recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognized.
During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company sold property
and equipment in exchange for proceeds of $ 105,000 , resulting in a gain of $ 144,000 . During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company
retired certain fully depreciated property and equipment which had an original cost of $ 444,000 .

agreement.
Accrued acquisition liabilities
Resulting from the 2021
acquisitions of Precision Extraction Newco, LLC (“Precision”) and Cascade Sciences, LLC (“Cascade”) from Sinclair
Scientific, LLC (“Sinclair”), the Company withheld from the transaction shares issuable to Precision and Cascade for the purpose
of securing any post-closing adjustment owed to the Company and any claim for indemnification or payment of damages to which the Company
may be entitled under the purchase agreement. The accrued acquisition liabilities as of December 31, 2023 represent the value of this
held back Common Stock at the price per share at the time of the transaction.
15
On June 15, 2023, the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Precision, filed an Amended Verified Complaint in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware
against Sinclair and certain individual defendants (the “Delaware Action”). The claims filed in the Delaware Action concern
various breaches of the Plan of Merger and Equity Purchase Agreement dated September 29, 2021, by and between the Company, Sinclair,
Mass2Media, LLC, and certain of their members (the “Merger Agreement”). In response to the Delaware Action, certain of the
defendants filed counterclaims for breach of contract and declaratory judgment against the Company and Precision alleging breach of the
Merger Agreement. Pursuant to a Settlement and Release Agreement, dated December 14, 2023, the Company and Sinclair dismissed all legal
claims and entered into a settlement for an undisclosed amount. As a result of this settlement, the Company derecognized the accrued
acquisition liability and issued the held back Common Stock in the first quarter of 2024 at Agrify’s price per share at the time of issuance.
The difference between the value of the shares at issuance and the derecognized liabilities was recorded as a gain within change in contingent
consideration within the Company’s condensed and consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
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, 2024 and December
31, 2023, the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company has certain
financial instruments which consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts receivable, loans receivable, accounts
payable, accrued expenses, contingent consideration, operating lease liabilities, long-term debt, related party debt, and warrant liabilities.
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, and accrued expenses approximate their
fair value 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, 2024 and December 31, 2023, approximated fair value.
● Loans receivable
are presented net of an allowance for estimated credit losses, which approximates fair value.
16
● The Company’s
contingent consideration was recorded in connection with acquisitions during the three months
ended March 31, 2024 and fiscal 2023 using an estimated fair value discount at the time of
the transactions. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying value of the contingent
consideration approximated fair value.
● The carrying value of lease liabilities approximates fair value due to the implicit discount rates used in the
determination of the lease liabilities being consistent with the Company’s incremental borrowing rates at the time of lease inception
and accounting for the duration of the leases.
● Long-term debt and related party debt, including the debt that has undergone troubled debt restructuring, is
carried at amortized cost, dictated by the prevailing market interest rates at the time of each transaction in accordance with ASC 470,
Debt .
● 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 unaudited
condensed 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, 2024
and December 31, 2023, the Company held investments in money market funds. They are valued using quoted market prices in active markets
and are classified under Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the Company’s money market funds as of March
31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 is $ 4 thousand for both years, respectively.
Warrant Liabilities
The estimated fair value
of the warrant liabilities on March 31, 2024 and 2023 is determined using Level 3 inputs. Inherent in a Black-Scholes option-pricing
model are assumptions used in calculating the estimated fair values that 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.
However, inherent uncertainties
are involved. If factors or assumptions change, the estimated fair values could be materially different.
The following table summarizes

Note 5 — Loans Receivable
A portion of the capital
raised from the Company’s IPO was allocated to launch the Company’s TTK Solution program. TTK Solution is the industry’s
first-of-its-kind program in which the Company engages with qualified cannabis operators in the early phases of their business plans
and provides critical support, typically over a 10 -year period, which includes: access to capital for construction costs, the design
and build-out of their cultivation and extraction facilities, state-of-the-art cultivation and extraction equipment, subscription to
the Company’s Agrify Insights™, process design, training, implementation, proven grow recipes, product formulations, data
analytics, and consumer branding.
17
Bud & Mary’s Cultivation, Inc. (“Bud
& Mary’s”) - Customer 139
The initial payment date
on the loan receivable from Bud & Mary’s is the first business day of the first full month following the commencement of commercial
products sales and the maturity date is 24 months from the initial payment date. The interest rate is 16 % per annum.
In Q3 2022, Agrify became
aware that Bud & Mary’s was not in compliance with all debt covenants as defined in the loan agreement which resulted in Agrify issuing
a loan acceleration letter to Bud & Mary’s on September 15, 2022, demanding full repayment of the construction loan under the loan
agreement dated May 12, 2021. Consequently, the Company established a reserve of $ 14.7 million specifically related to Bud & Mary’s.
As of March 31, 2024 the allowance related to Bud & Mary’s was reduced to $14.4 million, reflecting a recovery of allowance for credit
losses resulting from a loan repayment of $ 330 thousand that was previously included in the allowance.
Hannah Industries (“Hannah”)
- Customer 125
As of December 31, 2022,
the Company was unable to provide additional financing to Hannah Industries under the TTK Solution program to complete the build out
and development of Hannah’s cultivation business. As a result, the Company concluded that the existing receivable due from Hannah was
impaired as of this date. Given the uncertainty around the customer’s ability to repay the outstanding balance of the loan as well as
the absence of value attributed to any collateral from Hannah, an allowance for credit losses was recognized for 50 % of the total outstanding
receivable balance as of December 31, 2022. The Company recognized an allowance for credit losses related to the Hannah loan receivable
in the amount of $ 4.5 million as of December 31, 2022. In October 2023, the Company remitted an additional $ 250 thousand to Hannah under
the TTK Solution program, on which an allowance was not recorded. Therefore the allowance on the Hannah loan remains at $ 4.5 million
as of March 31, 2024.
Once the project is completed,
the customer will begin making monthly payments based on the harvest.
Nevada Holistics (“Tree house”)
- Customer 24096
As of March 2024, Nevada
Holistics has a current balance of $ 692 due in relation to the TTK loan. The project went live in Q2 2023. After the 90 day period for
the first harvest, the customer was given an additional 6-month grace period which ended in Q1 2024. Upon completion of this grace period,
the Company began invoicing the customer each month for a portion of the outstanding loan balance. The borrower will begin making monthly
payments in Q2 2024 based on what is produced through harvests. Monthly payments are calculated based off of the Production Success Fees
(‘PSF”) generated from each harvest. Upon issuance of each invoice, that portion of the loan is reclassified into loan receivable,
current on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

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
applied to the purchase of products once they are delivered.

Exchange Note
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 Lender was 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.
Convertible Note
On March 8, 2023, as a result
of the Exchange Agreement, the Company issued a Convertible Note to 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 was 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
would 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 had 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 imposed
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 Lender), 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 had, 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 elected to
convert the Convertible Note, the conversion price per share would be $ 7.64 , 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 %.
The Company evaluated the
embedded features in accordance with ASC 815-15-25 and the determined embedded features are not required to be bifurcated and separately
measured at fair value.
Aggregate interest expense
related to the Convertible Note and Exchange Note described above was $ 116 thousand as of March 31, 2024.
Note Conversion
Pursuant to the Exchange
Agreement the Company entered into with the Lender on March 8, 2023, the Lender elected, on April 26, 2023, to convert $ 1.6 million of
the remaining outstanding principal amount on the Convertible Note for 153,617 shares of Common Stock of the Company.
20
On May 1, 2023, the Company
entered into a letter agreement with the above referenced accredited Lender (the “Letter Agreement”), pursuant to which the
Company and the Lender agreed to exchange or redeem $ 2.0 million of the remaining outstanding principal amount under the Exchange Note
for a total of 445,196 shares of Common Stock of the Company, subject to a Beneficial Ownership Limitation of 4.99 % of the Company’s
Common Stock. Due to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation of 4.99 %, a total of 69,568 shares of Common Stock of the Company were issued
to the Lender, with the remaining 375,629 shares held in abeyance until the balance (or portion thereof) may be issued in compliance
with such limitations. As a result, the Company recognized a loss on the redemption of approximately $ 12 thousand.
The total aggregated Exchange Note and Convertible
Note is classified as long-term as of March 31, 2024.
Convertible Note Forgiveness
On November 30, 2023, the
New Lender agreed to forgive $ 1.0 million of the principal amount outstanding on the Convertible Note (the “Principal Forgiveness”).
The Principal Forgiveness was accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring under ASC 470, as 1) the Company was determined to be experiencing
financial difficulties as defined by the ASC, and 2) the Principal Forgiveness was deemed a concession by the New Lender. Per ASC 470-60-35-5,
a debtor in a troubled debt restructuring involving only modification of terms of a payable (i.e., not involving a transfer of assets
or grant of an equity interest) shall account for the effects of the restructuring prospectively from the time of restructuring and shall
not change the carrying amount of the payable at the time of the restructuring unless the carrying amount exceeds the total future cash
payments specified by the new terms. As the future undiscounted cash flows were greater than or equal to the net carrying value of the
original debt, the carrying amount of the debt at the time of the restructuring was not changed.
CP Acquisitions Junior Secured Note
On October 27, 2023, CP Acquisitions
LLC (the “New Lender” or “CP”), an entity affiliated with and controlled by the Company’s Chief Executive
Officer, purchased the Exchange Note and the Convertible Note from their holder (the “Note Purchase”). In connection with
the Note Purchase, the New Lender has agreed to waive any events of default under the acquired notes through December 31, 2023. As part
of the same transaction, the Company issued a junior secured promissory note (the “Junior Secured Note”) to the New Lender.
Pursuant to the Junior Secured Note, the New Lender will lend up to $ 3.0 million to the Company. The Junior Secured Note bears interest
at a rate of 10 % per annum, will mature in full on December 31, 2023, and may be prepaid without any fee or penalty. On December 4, 2023,
the New Lender and the Company amended and restated the Junior Secured Note agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the amendment, the maximum
principal amount that may be loaned by CP to the Company was increased to $ 4.0 million and extended the maturity date thereon to December
31, 2024.
Consolidated CP Acquisitions Note
On January 25, 2024, the
Company and the New Lender consolidated the outstanding principal and interest due under the Junior Secured Note and the Exchange Note
as well as the interest due under the Convertible Note into the Convertible Note (collectively, with the Junior Secured Note and the
Exchange Note, the “Consolidated Notes”), and amended and restated the Convertible Note under a Senior Secured Amended, Restated,
and Consolidated Convertible Note agreement (the “Restated Note”) having a total outstanding principal of $ 18,717,973 (the
“New Lender Debt Consolidation”). The Restated Note bears interest at a rate of 10 % per annum and will mature in full on
December 31, 2025. The Company may redeem all or a portion not less than $ 5.0 million of principal at any time at a price equal to 102.5 %
of the redeemed principal amount plus accrued but unpaid interest.
The Restated Note imposes
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 Restricted Note occurs, then
the then outstanding principal and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Restated Note will immediately become due and payable.
If the New Lender elects
to convert the Restated Note, the conversion price per share will be $ 1.46 , subject to customary adjustments for certain corporate events.
The conversion of the Restated Note will be subject to certain customary conditions. The Restated Note may not be converted into shares
of Common Stock if such conversion would result in the New Lender and its affiliates owning an aggregate of in excess of 49.99 % of the
then-outstanding shares of Common Stock.
Immediately following the
execution of the Restated Note, the New Lender elected to convert approximately $ 3.9 million of outstanding principal into an aggregate
of 2,671,633 shares of common stock (the “January Conversion”) having a fair value of approximately $ 1.7 million. As the
January Conversion was exercised by the New Lender in conjunction and in connection with the Debt Consolidation, the two transactions
combined were considered a modification of the total debt outstanding with the New Lender (the “New Lender Debt Restructuring”).
The New Lender Debt Restructuring
was accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring under ASC 470, as 1) the Company was determined to be experiencing financial difficulties
as defined by the ASC, and 2) the New Lender Debt Restructuring was deemed to result in a concession by the New Lender. The Company performed
a comparison of the undiscounted cash flows associated with the Restructured Note subsequent to the New Lender Debt Restructuring to
the carrying value of the Consolidated Notes as of the New Lender Debt Restructuring date. The net carrying value of the Consolidated
Notes was determined to exceed the undiscounted future cash flows of the Restated Note after consideration of the January Conversion
by approximately $ 675,000 (the “Excess Carrying Value”). The Restated Note was thus written down to the amount of the undiscounted
future cash flows on the Restated Note from the New Lender Restructuring date to maturity. Further, as the New Lender is a related party
of the Company, the Excess Carrying Value was accounted for as a capital transaction and no gain or loss was recognized related to the
restructuring.
21
GIC Acquisition Note
On July 12, 2023, the Board
of Directors of the Company approved the issuance of an unsecured promissory note (the “Related Party Note”) in favor of
GIC Acquisition, LLC (“GIC”), an entity that is owned and managed by the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
Pursuant to the Related Party Note, GIC is obligated to lend up to $ 0.5 million to the Company, $ 0.3 million of which was delivered at
issuance and the remaining $ 0.2 million delivered on July 31, 2023. The Related Party Note bears interest at a rate of 10 % per annum,
will mature in full on August 6, 2023, and may be prepaid without any fee or penalty. The Related Party Note ranks junior to all existing
secured indebtedness of the Company. On October 27, 2023, the maturity date of the Related Party Note was subsequently amended to December
31, 2024 at which point principal and accrued interest will be repaid in full. Interest expense incurred on the Related Party Note amounted
to approximately $ 24 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2024, the Company has borrowed approximately
$ 1.0 million under the Related Party Note agreement.
As of March 31, 2024, future minimum payments

Note 8 — 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 unaudited condensed 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. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate was determined using the interest
rate on a long term debt position entered into at approximately the same time and for the same duration as the lease. At March 31, 2024
and December 31, 2023, the Company’s weighted-average discount rate utilized for its leases was 7.50 % and 7.51 %, respectively.
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. As of March 31, 2024 the Company had no active finance leases.
The Company had several
non-cancellable 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 four years, some of which include options to extend. Some leases include
payment for communal area maintenance associated with the property.

the Company entered into a placement agency agreement (the “Agency Agreement”) with Alexander Capital, LP as placement agent
(the “Placement Agent”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell an aggregate of 2,760,000 shares of its common
stock, and, in lieu of common stock to certain investors that so chose, pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,963,684 shares of its common
stock (the “S-1 Offering”). The public offering price for each share of common stock is $ 0.38 , and the offering price for
each Pre-Funded Warrant is $0.379, which equals the public offering price per share of the common stock, less the $ 0.001 per share exercise
price of each Pre-Funded Warrant.
23
The Company issued 67,237
warrants to purchase common stock to Alexander Capital, L.P., referred to as the Placement Agents Warrants above. The warrants were classified
as equity warrants and recorded under additional paid-in capital in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The warrants
have a five-year term and exercise price of 100 % of the offering price, and are subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock
splits, stock dividends, and similar transactions. The warrants will be exercisable on a cash basis,
unless there is not an effective registration statement covering the issuance of the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants or
if shareholder approval for the full exercise of the warrants are not received, in which case the Modified Warrant will also be exercisable
on a cashless exercise basis at Alexander Capital election.
The measurement of fair value
of the Alexander Capital Warrants were determined utilizing a Black-Scholes model considering all relevant assumptions current at the
date of issuance (i.e., share price of $ 0.52 , exercise price of $ 0.38 , term of five years , volatility of 128 %, risk-free rate of 4.32 %,
and expected dividend rate of 0 %). The grant date fair value of these Alexander Capital Warrants was estimated to be $ 31 thousand on
February 27, 2024 and is reflected within additional paid-in capital as of March 31, 2024.
Note 10 — 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 and 250,000 additional shares issued upon approval by the Board
of Directors on January 8, 2024. Shares will be deemed to have been issued under the 2022 Plan solely to the extent actually issued and
delivered pursuant to an award. 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, 2024, there were 57,719 shares of Common Stock available to be
granted under the Company’s 2022 Plan.
The Company’s stock
compensation expense was $ 0.5 million and $ 0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Stock Options
For the three months ended
March 31, 2024, there were no options granted, exercised, forfeited or expired under the Company’s stock option plans. There were

Note 12 — Income Taxes
The Company’s effective
income tax rate is both 0 % for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. There were no provisions for (benefits from)
income taxes for both years, respectively. There is no difference between the Company’s effective tax rates for the 2024 and 2023
periods. There was no change in the provision for (benefit from) income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the
three months ended March 31, 2023.
Note 13 — Net Loss Per Share
Net (loss) income per
share calculations for all periods have been adjusted to reflect the Company’s reverse stock splits. Net (loss) income per share
was calculated based on the weighted-average number of the Company’s Common Stock outstanding.
Basic net (loss) income
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 convertible notes, 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 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 because the effect of dilutive securities outstanding
during the periods, including convertible notes, options, restricted stock units and warrants computed using the treasury stock method,
is anti-dilutive.
The components of basic and diluted net loss
per share were as follows:

As of March 31, 2024,
the Company had convertible notes outstanding with a principal balance of approximately $ 14.8 million convertible into 10,332,411 shares
of Common Stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company also converted a portion of the convertible notes into 2,671,633
shares of Common Stock. Given the nominal exercise price of the Company’s issuance of Pre-funded Warrants, such Pre-funded Warrants
are included in in the calculation of basic net (loss) income per share and weighted for the period outstanding from issuance to March
31, 2024. The exercise price per warrant is deemed non-substantive when compared to the fair value of the underlying common shares. In
determination of the denominator for diluted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company assumed conversion of the 2,671,633
shares of Common Stock as of the beginning of the period, January 1, 2024, eliminating the weighting of the shares from issuance to March
31, 2024. The Company also included in the denominator for diluted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2024, the assumed conversion
of 10,332,411 shares of Common Stock related to the convertible notes.
26
For each of the periods
presented, the Company’s potential dilutive securities, which include stock options, restricted stock units, and warrants, have
been excluded from the computation of basic and diluted net (loss) income per share with the exception of the Pre-funded Warrants, or
penny warrants, which are included in the computation, as detailed above. The weighted-average number of Common Shares outstanding used
to calculate both basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to Common Stockholders is the same for the three months ended March
31, 2023. The Company excluded the following potential Common Stock equivalents presented based on amounts outstanding at each period
end, from the computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to Common Stockholders for the periods indicated because including
them would have had an anti-dilutive effect:

Note 14 — Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Matters
From time to time, the
Company may become involved in material legal proceedings or be subject to claims arising in the ordinary course of our business. However,
litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may
harm our business.
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, and Agrify will be permitted to
make responsive filings, which may include an answer and counterclaim.
Bowdoin Construction Corp. Litigation
On February 22, 2023,
Bowdoin Construction Corp. (“Bowdoin”) filed a complaint (the “Bowdoin Complaint”) in the Superior Court of Massachusetts
in Norfolk County naming the Company, Bud & Mary’s and certain related parties as defendants, captioned 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 due to nonpayment of approximately $ 6.3 million
due under the contract and related indemnification claims and mechanics’ liens. The $ 6.3 million is included in accounts payable
in the unaudited condensed consolidated
balance sheet. One of Bowdoin’s subs, Hannon Electric, Inc. has filed a separate suit against Agrify in the amount of $ 1.498 million.
The amount is part of the $ 6.3 million claimed in Bowdoin’s complaint. 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 recognized a contingent liability in the amount of $ 8.4 million, representing an estimate of the amount payable
to Mack with respect to the original Mack purchase agreement, and which was included in accounts payable in the unaudited condensed 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 (the “Modification
Agreement”) with respect to the dispute rather than engaging in litigation through the courts.
On February 29, 2024,
the Company met its contractual obligations under the terms of the Modification Agreement. In settlement of the dispute, the Company
made cash payments of $ 500,000 and $ 250,000 to Mack and issued to Mack a warrant to purchase 750,000 shares of the Company’s Common
Stock. In the first quarter of 2024, management derecognized the previously recognized contingent liability, resulting in a credit of
approximately $ 5.9 million, recorded within gain on settlement of contingent liabilities, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement
of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
TRC Electronics Litigation
The Company was named as
a defendant in a complaint filed by TRC Electronics, Inc. (“TRC”) on April 13, 2023 in the United States District Court for
the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. In the Complaint, TRC asserts two causes of action against the Company: (1) breach of contract,
and (2) promissory estoppel. TRC’s claims are based on allegations that the Company failed to make payments due under three purchase
orders for commercial electronics parts. TRC seeks damages in the amount of $ 565,210 , plus attorneys’ fees, costs, and post-judgment
interest. The Company has filed an answer denying liability on TRC’s claims and is proceeding with discovery.
McCutchan, Inc.
In December 2021, the Company
entered into a Standard Form of Agreement (“Agreement”) between Owner and Contractor whereby Valiant Group LLC (“Valiant”)
is the general contractor for tenant improvements on certain real property located in Bellevue, Washington (the “Project”).
McCutchan, Inc. (“McCutchan”) agreed to be a subcontractor on the Project and engaged various other subcontractors. The Company
terminated Valiant as the general contractor for, among other allegations, breach of contract and unjust enrichment. Following the termination
of Valiant, in October 2022, the Agreement was assigned and accepted (the “Assignment”) to Agxion, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company. The Assignment contemplates that, as a subcontractor to the Agreement, McCutchan is still bound to the subcontract agreement
and will continue construction operations on the Project. The Company is pursuing Valiant in a separate litigation (the “Valiant
Litigation”) to collect no less than approximately $ 1.4 million alleging overbilling, breach of the Agreement, and violation of
Chapter 18.27 and 19.86 RCW in Washington. On March 5, 2024, McCutchan, Inc. (“McCutchan”) filed a complaint in the Superior
Court of Washington for King County naming the Company, Valiant, and certain related parties as defendants. In the Complaint, McCutchan
asserts two causes of action against the Company: (1) breach of contract, (2) voidable contract, (3) interference with business or economic
expectancy, (4) unjust enrichment, and (5) defamation. McCutchan’s claims are based on allegations of misrepresentations made by
the Company to pay McCutchan for work completed on the Project as well as a failure to pay under the Agreement. In the alternative, McCutchan
is alleging the Assignment is void and not a valid contract. McCutchan is seeking to collect no less than $3 million against the Company
and all other named defendants. The Company, Valiant, and McCutchan have all agreed to mediate the matter. McCutchan has asked to postpone
the original scheduled May 7 th mediation date, and the Company, Valiant and McCutchan are collectively working to set up a
new three-way mediation date. In the event the parties cannot reach an agreement in the mediation, this matter will be moved to arbitration
pursuant to the mandatory arbitration clause in the Agreement.
Valiant Group LLC
Agrify filed a separate complaint against Valiant
for overbilling, misrepresentation, and breach for the Treehouse project in Nevada. Valiant has failed to respond and Agrify has since
submitted an entry of default to the court and is currently seeking for award in the amount of $ 1.5 million. However, there is no guarantee
that the Court would award the full amount and no guarantee that Agrify would be able to successfully collect the full amount from Valiant.
28
Other Litigation
In September 2023, the
Company settled a legal dispute with a specific customer which resulted in the recognition of a gain of approximately $ 0.9 million, of
which $ 0.3 million was paid in October 2023, with the remaining approximate $ 0.6 million to be paid in equal monthly installments, beginning
in January, 2024. This gain was recognized as part of other income, net per the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations
for the three months ended March 31, 2024, with the approximate $ 0.9 million receivable balance recognized as part of prepaid expenses
and other current assets, per the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet, as of March 31, 2024. The settlement also resulted
in the return of equipment to the Company in October 2023.
The Company is currently
pursuing 10 separate legal proceedings in attempting to collect approximately $ 2.5 million outstanding receivables. The Company is not
confident that all legal proceedings and collection efforts will yield in positive results or return of equipment.
On April 25, 2024, Medical
Investor Holdings, LLC dba Vertical Companies (“MIH”) filed a complaint against Agrify demanding $ 288,000 . MIH purchased
an XMU hydrocarbon extraction system from Precision in October 2021. MIH chose to not include installation and training in the original
purchase but is now having problems with this equipment. The Company this is a meritless case.
The Company is also a defendant
or plaintiff in a variety of other litigation matters that are individually insignificant. The timing and amount of any settlements,
including potential payments made or received, is uncertain. Nonetheless, management currently estimates that the Company’s aggregate
net loss exposure with respect to these cases is within the range of approximately $ 150,000 to $ 300,000 .
On July 2022, claimant,
an ex-sales VP is claiming he is owed back wages, commission and is entitled to equity in the company, under theories of liability under
Massachusetts labor laws including retaliation, breach of contract, breach of covenant of good faith and fair dealing, fraudulent inducement,
tortious interference & unjust enrichment. Company has filed its answer to the initial complaint in January 2023. The Company believes
this is a meritless case and has responded to various discovery requests.
Commitments
Mack Molding Co.
The Modification Agreement
with Mack referenced above resulted in the Company entering a purchase commitment with Mack where it is contractually obligated to purchase
a minimum of 25 VFUs per quarter for each quarter during 2024 and a minimum of 50 VFUs per quarter for the six quarters beginning with
the first quarter of 2025, at a per VFU price of $ 14,000 . The Company made payment and took collection of 25 VFUs in the second quarter
of 2024. The Company has also granted Mack a second lien position on all Agrify assets.
The Company is also required
to pay a storage fee of $ 25,000 to Mack, per month, for VFU parts subject to the Modification Agreement.
Other Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is potentially
subject to claims related to various non-income taxes (such as sales, value-added, consumption, and similar taxes) from various tax authorities,
including in jurisdictions in which the Company already collects and remits such taxes. If the relevant taxing authorities successfully
pursue these claims, the Company could be subject to additional tax liabilities.
