EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A (the “Amendment”) amends the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Ault Alliance, Inc., which was then known as BitNile Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 (the “Original Filing”), that was originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on August 22, 2022. This Report only amends and restates Item 1, Item 2 and Item 4 of Part I of the Original Report to reflect the restatement. The foregoing items have not been updated to reflect other events occurring after the date of the Original Report (other than the Name Change, as defined below), or to modify or update those disclosures affected by subsequent events. Subsequent to the date of filing of the Original Filing, the Company merged its wholly owned subsidiary, Ault Alliance, Inc., with and into the Company, and in connection therewith, changed its name from BitNile Holdings, Inc. to Ault Alliance, Inc. (the “Name Change”). As such, other than on the cover page of this Amendment, the signature page to this Amendment, and the revised disclosures contained in Item 1 and Item 2, which reflects the Name Change, all other references in this Amendment to Ault Alliance, Inc. refers to the former wholly owned subsidiary of the same name, and not to the Company. In addition, the exhibit list in Item 6 of Part II has been updated only to include currently dated certifications from the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, are filed with this Amendment as Exhibit 31.1, 31.2 and 32.1.

The Amendment is being filed to correct an error in classification with respect to changes in fair value of financial instruments issued by a related party. The changes in fair value were erroneously recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and have been reclassified to correct for the error within the statement of operations.

Further, this Amendment also includes certain limited modifications to reflect the correct classification in disclosures in the Company’s Note 20 Net (Loss) Income per Share footnote in the Company’s Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “goals,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. In addition, any statements that refer to projections of our future financial performance, our anticipated growth and trends in our businesses, uncertain events or assumptions, and other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on management’s expectations as of the date of this filing and involve many risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include those described throughout this report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2021, particularly the “Risk Factors” sections of such reports. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made in this Form 10-Q and in other documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission that disclose risks and uncertainties that may affect our business.

Ault Alliance, Inc., a Delaware corporation which was then known as BitNile Holdings, Inc. (“BitNile” or the “Company”) was incorporated in September 2017. BitNile is a diversified holding company pursuing growth by acquiring undervalued businesses and disruptive technologies with a global impact. Through its wholly- and majority-owned subsidiaries and strategic investments, the Company owns and operates a data center at which it mines Bitcoin, and provides mission-critical products that support a diverse range of industries, including defense/aerospace, industrial, automotive, medical/biopharma, karaoke audio equipment, hotel operations and textiles. In addition, the Company extends credit to select entrepreneurial businesses through a licensed lending subsidiary. BitNile was founded by Milton “Todd” Ault, III, its Executive Chairman and is led by Mr. Ault, William B. Horne, its Chief Executive Officer and Vice Chairman and Henry Nisser, its President and General Counsel. Together, they constitute the Executive Committee, which manages the day-to-day operations of the Company.

1 A. RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

This Amendment amends the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2022, that was originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on August 22, 2022. This Amendment only corrects an error in classification with respect to changes in fair value of financial instruments issued by a related party. The changes in fair value were erroneously recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and have been reclassified to correct for the error within the statement of operations. The Company has restated its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows to correct this misclassification. Further, this Amendment also includes certain limited modifications to reflect the correct classification in disclosures in the Company’s Note 20 Net (Loss) Income per Share footnote in the Company’s Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Finally, the Company has modified its disclosures in Item 4 of Part I to reflect the identification of an additional material weakness.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X and do not include all the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Company has made estimates and judgments affecting the amounts reported in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially from the Company’s estimates. The condensed consolidated financial information is unaudited but reflects all normal adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 15, 2022. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 was derived from the Company’s audited 2021 financial statements contained in the above referenced Form 10-K. Results of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2022.

Significant Accounting Policies

Other than as noted below, there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies previously disclosed in the 2021 Annual Report.

Business Combination

The Company allocates the purchase price of an acquired business to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. Any excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Acquired customer relations, technology, tradenames and know how are recognized at fair value. The purchase price allocation process requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date with respect to intangible assets. Direct transaction costs associated with the business combination are expensed as incurred. The allocation of the consideration transferred in certain cases may be subject to revision based on the final determination of fair values during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date. The Company includes the results of operations of the business that it has acquired in its consolidated results prospectively from the date of acquisition.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquirer is re-measured to fair value at the acquisition date; any gains or losses arising from such re-measurement are recognized in profit or loss.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the current-period financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations.

Recent Accounting Standards

In May 2021, the Financial Accountings Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-04, “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt-Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815- 40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options.” The guidance became effective for the Company on January 1, 2022. The Company adopted the guidance on January 1, 2022, and has concluded the adoption did not have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” (“ASU No. 2016-13”) to improve information on credit losses for financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. ASU 2016-13 replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)-Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASU 2020-06”). The ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. ASU 2020-06 removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for it. ASU 2020-06 also simplifies the diluted net income per share calculation in certain areas. The amendments in ASU 2020-06 are effective for smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Effective January 1, 2022, the Company early adopted ASU 2020-06 using the modified retrospective approach, which resulted in no impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

F- 15

Field: /Page

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805), Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers,” which requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The guidance will result in the acquirer recognizing contract assets and contract liabilities at the same amounts recorded by the acquiree. The guidance should be applied prospectively to acquisitions occurring on or after the effective date. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including in interim periods, for any financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, “Government Assistance (Topic 832),” which requires annual disclosures that increase the transparency of transactions involving government grants, including (1) the types of transactions, (2) the accounting for those transactions, and (3) the effect of those transactions on an issuer’s financial statements. The amendments in this update are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company expects that this guidance will not have a significant impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

4. REVENUE DISAGGREGATION

Total assets measured at fair value $ 182,392,000 $ 170,335,000 $ - $ 12,057,000

The Company assesses the inputs used to measure fair value using the three-tier hierarchy based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. For investments where little or no public market exists, management’s determination of fair value is based on the best available information which may incorporate management’s own assumptions and involves a significant degree of judgment, taking into consideration various factors including earnings history, financial condition, recent sales prices of the issuer’s securities and liquidity risks.

The following table summarizes the changes in investments in other equity securities measured and carried at fair value on a recurring basis with the use of significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the six months ended June 30, 2022:

Schedule of other equity securities measured and carried at fair value
Investments in other equity securities
Balance at January 1, 2022 $ 9,215,000
Investment in preferred stock 2,550,000
Change in fair value of warrants 13,867,000
Conversion to marketable securities ( 24,828,000 )
Balance at June 30, 2022 $ 804,000

See Note 11 for the changes in investments in Ault & Company measured and carried at fair value on a recurring basis with the use of significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Other equity securities also include investments in entities that do not have a readily determinable fair value and do not report net asset value per share. These investments are accounted for using a measurement alternative under which they are measured at cost and adjusted for observable price changes and impairments. Observable price changes result from, among other things, equity transactions for the same issuer executed during the reporting period, including subsequent equity offerings or other reported equity transactions related to the same issuer. For these transactions to be considered observable price changes of the same issuer, the Company evaluates whether these transactions have similar rights and obligations, including voting rights, distribution preferences, conversion rights, and other factors, to the investments the Company holds. Any investments adjusted to their fair value by applying the measurement alternative are disclosed as nonrecurring fair value measurements, including the level in the fair value hierarchy that was used. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, investments in other equity securities valued using a measurement alternative of $ 37.7 million and $ 21.3 million, respectively, are included in other equity securities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

8. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

Overview of AVLP Acquisition

On June 1, 2022, the Company converted the principal amount under the convertible promissory notes issued to it by AVLP and accrued but unpaid interest into common stock of AVLP. The Company converted $ 20.0 million in principal and $ 5.9 million of accrued interest receivable at a conversion price of $0.50 per share and received 51,889,168 shares of common stock increasing its common stock ownership of AVLP from less than 20 % to approximately 92 %.

Prior to the conversion of the convertible promissory notes, the Company accounted for its investment in AVLP as an investment in an unconsolidated entity under the equity method of accounting. In connection with the conversion of the convertible promissory notes, the Company’s consolidated financial statements now include all of the accounts of AVLP, and any significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The consideration transferred for the Company’s approximate 92% ownership interest in connection with this acquisition aggregated $20.7 million, which represented the fair value of the Company’s holdings in AVLP immediately prior to conversion. The carrying amount of the Company’s holdings in AVLP immediately prior to conversion was $23.4 million, resulting in a $2.7 million loss for the related remeasurement, which was recognized in interest and other income. The allocation of the total consideration transferred to the assets acquired, including intangible assets and goodwill, and the liabilities assumed is preliminary and could be revised as a result of additional information obtained due to the finalization of a third-party valuation report, leases and related commitments, tax related matters and contingencies and certain assets and liabilities, including receivables and payables. Amounts will be finalized within the measurement period, which will not exceed one year from the acquisition date. The goodwill resulting from this acquisition is not tax deductible.

Overview of SMC Acquisition

Beginning in June 2022, the Company, through its subsidiary Digital Power Lending, LLC (“DP Lending”), began making open market purchases of SMC common stock. These purchases granted the Company a greater than 20% effective ownership on June 9, 2022, and subsequently, on June 15, 2022, the Company owned more than 50% of the issued and outstanding common stock of SMC. The Company’s ownership of SMC stands at 51.6% as of June 30, 2022.

As of June 15, 2022 (“Acquisition Date”), the purchase price of the common stock acquired totaled $ 7.4 million and on June 15, 2022 a $ 3.1 million gain was recognized in interest and other income for the remeasurement of the Company’s previously held ownership interest to $ 10.5 million, based on the trading price of SMC common stock. The Company also recognized non-controlling interest at fair value as of the Acquisition Date in the amount of $ 10.3 million.

The allocation of the total consideration transferred to the assets acquired, including intangible assets and goodwill, and the liabilities assumed, is preliminary and could be revised as a result of additional information obtained due to the finalization of a third-party valuation report, leases and related commitments, tax related matters and contingencies and certain assets and liabilities, including receivables and payables. Amounts will be finalized within the measurement period, which will not exceed one year from the Acquisition Date. The goodwill resulting from this acquisition is not tax deductible.

The Company consolidates the results of SMC on a one-quarter lag as it enables the Company to report its quarterly results independent from the timing of when SMC reports its results, therefore the statements of operations do not include results for SMC for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Financial Instruments

Under authoritative guidance used by the FASB on determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock, instruments that do not have fixed settlement provisions are deemed to be derivative instruments. In prior years, the Company granted certain warrants that resulted in these warrants accounted for as a financial instrument and being re-measured every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.

The financial instruments were valued using a variety of pricing models with the following valuation assumptions:

Schedule of Financial Instrument June 30, 2022 December 31, 2021
Contractually stipulated stock price $ 2.50 $ 2.50
Exercise price $ 2.50 $ 2.50
Contractually defined remaining term 5.0 5.0
Contractually defined volatility 135 % 135 %
Dividend yield 0 % 0 %
Risk-free interest rate 3.0 % 1.3 %

Per the terms of the warrant agreements underlying the financial instruments, the value to the warrant holders is defined within the agreement based on a stock price, contractual term, volatility factor and dividend rate as defined in the warrant agreement, and not indexed to the company’s stock, resulting in the financial instrument accounting. The risk-free interest rate was based on rates established by the Federal Reserve Bank.

Subpoena

The Company and certain affiliates and related parties have received several subpoenas from the SEC for the production of documents and testimony. The Company is fully cooperating with this non-public, fact-finding inquiry and management believes that the Company has operated its business in compliance with all applicable laws. The subpoenas expressly provide that the inquiry is not to be construed as an indication by the SEC or its staff that any violations of the federal securities laws have occurred, nor should they be considered a reflection upon any person, entity or security. However, there can be no assurance as to the outcome of this matter.

Other Litigation Matters

The Company is involved in litigation arising from other matters in the ordinary course of business. The Company is regularly subject to claims, suits, regulatory and government investigations, and other proceedings involving labor and employment, commercial disputes, and other matters. Such claims, suits, regulatory and government investigations, and other proceedings could result in fines, civil penalties, or other adverse consequences.

Certain of these outstanding matters include speculative, substantial or indeterminate monetary amounts. The Company records a liability when it believes that it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If the Company determines that a loss is reasonably possible and the loss or range of loss can be estimated, the Company discloses the reasonably possible loss. The Company evaluates developments in its legal matters that could affect the amount of liability that has been previously accrued, and the matters and related reasonably possible losses disclosed, and makes adjustments as appropriate. Significant judgment is required to determine both likelihood of there being and the estimated amount of a loss related to such matters.

With respect to the Company’s other outstanding matters, based on the Company’s current knowledge, the Company believes that the amount or range of reasonably possible loss will not, either individually or in aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, the outcome of such matters is inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties.

On February 4, 2022, we and our wholly owned subsidiary Ault Alliance, Inc. (“Ault Alliance”) entered into a securities purchase agreement providing for our purchase of BitNile, Inc. (“BNI”) from Ault Alliance. As a result of this transaction, both BNI and Ault Alliance are each stand-alone wholly owned subsidiaries of ours.

On February 10, 2022, consistent with our objective to have BNI operate the entirety of our business that relates to cryptocurrencies, Ault Alliance assigned the entirety of its interest in Alliance Cloud Services, LLC (“ACS”) to BNI.

On February 25, 2022, we entered into an At-The-Market issuance sales agreement with Ascendiant Capital Markets, LLC (“Ascendiant Capital”) to sell shares of common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $200 million from time to time, through an “at the market offering” program (the “2022 Common ATM Offering”). As of June 30, 2022, we had sold an aggregate of 239.7 million shares of common stock pursuant to the 2022 Common ATM Offering for gross proceeds of $163.4 million.

On March 20, 2022, we and our majority owned subsidiary Imperalis Holding Corp. (“IMHC”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with TurnOnGreen, Inc. (“TurnOnGreen”), a wholly owned subsidiary of ours. According to the Agreement, we will (i) deliver to IMHC all of the outstanding shares of common stock of TurnOnGreen that we own, and (ii) forgive and eliminate the intracompany accounts between us and TurnOnGreen evidencing historical equity investments made by us in TurnOnGreen, in the approximate amount of $25 million, in consideration for the issuance by IMHC to us (the “Transaction”) of an aggregate of 25,000 newly designated shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “IMHC Preferred Stock”), with each such share having a stated value of $1,000. The closing of the Transaction is subject to our delivery to IMHC of audited financial statements of TurnOnGreen and other customary closing conditions. Immediately following the completion of the Transaction, TurnOnGreen will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of IMHC. The parties to the Agreement have agreed that, upon completion of the Transaction, IMHC will change its name to TurnOnGreen, Inc., and, through an upstream merger whereby the current TurnOnGreen shall cease to exist, IMHC shall own TurnOnGreen’s two operating subsidiaries, TOG Technologies Inc. and Digital Power Corporation.

On March 30, 2022, we fully paid our $66 million senior secured notes (the “Senior Notes”) and accrued interest. The 10% original issuance discount promissory notes were sold in December 2021 and were due and payable on March 31, 2022.

On April 22, 2022, Ault Alliance entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with EYP Group Holdings, Inc. and each of its subsidiaries and affiliates listed on the signature page to the Asset Purchase Agreement (collectively, “EYP”), pursuant to which Ault Alliance agreed to purchase substantially all of the assets of EYP (such assets, the “Assets,” and such transaction, the “Asset Purchase”). On April 24, 2022, EYP filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Bankruptcy Court has permitted joint administration of the Chapter 11 cases under the caption “In re EYP Group Holdings, Inc., et al.”, Case No. 22-10367 (MFW) (the “Chapter 11 Cases”).

Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, Ault Alliance or its designee(s), upon the closing of the transactions contemplated thereby, were to purchase the Assets and assume certain of EYP’s obligations associated with the purchased Assets through a supervised sale under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code. Ault Alliance’s stalking horse bid is based on an enterprise value of approximately $67.7 million, which includes the purchase price for the Assets under the Asset Purchase Agreement of $62.5 million, as adjusted by a closing working capital adjustment (the “Purchase Price”), plus Ault Alliance’s assumption of certain liabilities. The Purchase Price would be paid in cash, less the outstanding amount of the DIP Loans and the senior secured loans previously issued by Ault Alliance to EYP, in an approximate aggregate amount of $11.8 million, and less the amount of certain liabilities assumed by Ault Alliance. The Asset Purchase Agreement required the Asset Purchase to close by June 30, 2022. Consummation of the Asset Purchase was subject to Bankruptcy Court approved bidding procedures, higher and better offers made in the auction by other potential bidders, approval of the highest bidder by the Bankruptcy Court and customary closing conditions. On July 7, 2022, we announced that Ault Alliance did not acquire the assets of EYP as a result of a higher bidder. Ault Alliance lent $8.0 million to EYP and earned $4.7 million in interest, penalties and break-up fees from October 2021 through June 2022. The principal amount of the loans, interest, penalties and break-up fees, were fully repaid on June 30, 2022.

On August 10, 2022, BNI and DP Lending entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “NPA”) with two accredited investors (the “Investors”) providing for the issuance of Secured Promissory Notes (individually, a “Note” and collectively, the “Notes”) with an aggregate principal face amount of $11,000,000. The Notes have a principal face amount of $11,000,000 and bear interest at 10% per annum, payable monthly in arrears, pursuant to the terms of the Notes.

BNI may prepay the full outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest at any time, provided that if BNI prepays the Notes, BNI is required to pay the Investors the amount of interest that would have accrued from the date of prepayment until the first anniversary of the issuance date of the Notes. The purchase price for the Notes was $10 million.

Pursuant to the NPA, BNI, DP Lending and Helios Funds LLC, as the collateral agent on behalf of the Investors (the “Agent”) entered into a security agreement (the “Security Agreement”), pursuant to which (i) DP Lending granted to the Investors a security interest in marketable securities, investments and other property having a value of $10 million in a DP Lending brokerage account and (ii) BNI granted to the Investors a security interest in 4,000 S19 Pro Antminers (the “Miners”), provided that the number of Miners would be reduced to 2,000 after BNI makes the third Monthly Payment (as defined below), as set forth in the Security Agreement. In addition, pursuant to a subsidiary guaranty, DP Lending jointly and severally agreed to guarantee and act as surety for BNI’s obligation to repay the Notes. The Notes are further secured by a guaranty we provided.

Under the Master Agreement, BNI granted Compute North a continuing first-position security interest in the Hosted Miners, as collateral for BNI’s obligations under the Hosting Documents. Upon an event of default (as defined in the Master Agreement) by BNI, Compute North has the right to terminate the Hosting Documents and BNI is obligated to pay to Compute North all amounts then due under the Hosting Documents, together with a fee as liquidated damages, equal to the amount of fees that BNI would have been required to pay through the end of the Term.

To the extent we believe that a subsidiary or partner company’s further growth and development can best be supported by a different ownership structure or if we otherwise believe it is in our stockholders’ best interests, we will seek to sell some or all of our position in the subsidiary or partner company. These sales may take the form of privately negotiated sales of stock or assets, mergers and acquisitions, public offerings of the subsidiary or partner company’s securities and, in the case of publicly traded partner companies, sales of their securities in the open market. Our plans may include taking subsidiaries or partner companies public through rights offerings and directed share subscription programs. We will continue to consider these (or similar) programs and the sale of certain subsidiary or partner company interests in secondary market transactions to maximize value for our stockholders.

In recent years, we have provided capital and relevant expertise to fuel the growth of businesses in defense/aerospace, industrial, automotive, medical/biopharma, karaoke audio equipment, hotel operations and textiles. We have provided capital to subsidiaries as well as partner companies in which we have an equity interest or may be actively involved, influencing development through board representation and management support.

Revenues

Revenues by segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:

For the Three Months Ended June 30, — 2022 2021 Increase — (Decrease) %
GWW $ 6,503,000 $ 6,475,000 $ 28,000 0 %

Ault Global Real Estate Equities, Inc. (“AGREE”) 4,598,000 - 4,598,000

Other 12,000 73,000 (61,000 ) -84 %
Total revenue $ 17,366,000 $ 62,129,000 $ (44,763,000 ) -72 %

Our revenues decreased by $44.8 million, or 72%, to $17.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $62.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

GWW

GWW revenues were flat at $6.5 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

TurnOnGreen

TurnOnGreen revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2022 of $1.1 million declined $0.8 million, or 42%, from $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, due to supply chain challenges.

The current supply chain crisis in the global economy has led to delivery delays and shortages of certain electronic components and associated raw materials that TurnOnGreen uses in its products. Should this supply chain crisis continue throughout 2022, it will likely extend TurnOnGreen’s production time periods and delay the timing of revenue recognition. TurnOnGreen cannot predict if or when circumstances may change, nor can it predict the amount by which bookings or shipments may change.

BNI

Revenues from BNI’s cryptocurrency mining operations were $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $0.3 million for three months ended June 30, 2021. During 2021, we purchased Bitcoin mining equipment and increased our cryptocurrency mining activities. Our decision to increase our cryptocurrency mining operations was based on several factors, which positively affected the number of active miners we operated, including the market prices of digital currencies, and favorable power costs available at our Michigan data center.

AGREE

AGREE revenues were $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. On December 22, 2021, AGREE acquired four hotel properties for $71.3 million, consisting of a 136-room Courtyard by Marriott, a 133-room Hilton Garden Inn and a 122-room Residence Inn by Marriott in Middleton, WI, as well as a 135-room Hilton Garden Inn in Rockford, IL.

Ault Alliance

Revenues from our lending and trading activities decreased to $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $53.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, which is attributable to significant unrealized gains in the prior year period and unrealized losses in the current year period from our investment portfolio. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, DP Lending generated significant income from appreciation of investments in marketable securities as well as shares of common stock underlying convertible notes and warrants issued to DP Lending in certain financing transactions. Revenue from lending and trading activities during the three months ended June 30, 2021 included an approximate $40 million unrealized gain from our investment in Alzamend. Under its business model, DP Lending also generates revenue through origination fees charged to borrowers and interest generated from each loan.

Revenues from our trading activities during the three months ended June 30, 2022 included net gains on equity securities, including unrealized gains and losses from market price changes. These gains and losses have caused, and will continue to cause, significant volatility in our periodic earnings.

Gross Margins

Gross margins decreased to 28.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 89.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Our gross margins have typically ranged between 30% and 35%, with slight variations depending on the overall composition of our revenue.

Our gross margins of 28.8% recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2022 were impacted by the favorable margins from our lending and trading activities and modest margins on cryptocurrency mining operations due to the decline in the price of Bitcoin. Excluding the effects of margin from our lending and trading activities and cryptocurrency mining operations, our adjusted gross margins for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, would have been 33.1% and 30.0%, respectively, consistent with our historical range.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased by $0.2 million to $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in research and development expenses is due to product development efforts at TurnOnGreen.

Selling and Marketing

Selling and marketing expenses were $7.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $5.5 million, or 364%. The increase was the result of $3.7 million higher marketing costs at Ault Alliance, including $2.4 million related to an advertising sponsorship agreement as well as increases in sales and marketing personnel and consultants.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses were $19.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $8.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $11.0 million, or 138%. General and administrative expenses increased from the comparative prior period, mainly due to:

· increased costs of $2.6 million related to the Michigan data center, operated by ACS;

· $2.5 million increase in the accrual of a performance bonus related to realized gains on trading activities during the period;

· general and administrative costs of $1.9 million from our hotel operations, which were acquired in December 2021;

Net (Loss) Income

For the foregoing reasons, our net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $54.6 million, compared to net income of $41.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income

Other comprehensive loss was $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to other comprehensive income of $41,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Other comprehensive loss for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was attributable to foreign currency translation adjustments between our functional currency, the U.S. Dollar, and the British Pound and Israeli Shekel.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On June 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $24.1 million (excluding restricted cash of $4.7 million). This compares to cash and cash equivalents of $15.9 million (excluding restricted cash of $5.3 million) at December 31, 2021. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to cash provided by financing activities related to the sale of common and preferred stock, as well as proceeds from notes payable and cash provided by operating activities, partially offset by the payment of debt and purchases of property and equipment.

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $15.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $21.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 included $50.7 million net cash provided by marketable securities from trading activities related to the operations of DP Lending, partially offset by operating losses and changes in working capital.

Net cash used in investing activities was $82.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $29.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 included $72.8 million of capital expenditures primarily related to Bitcoin mining equipment, $15.8 million for investments in equity securities and $8.2 million for the purchase of SMC, net of cash received, partially offset by $11.7 million proceeds from the sale of marketable equity securities, $10.5 million principal payments received on loans receivable and $4.4 million proceeds from the sale of digital currencies.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $75.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $138.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and reflects the following transactions:

· 2022 Common ATM Offering – On February 25, 2022, we entered into an At-The-Market issuance sales agreement with Ascendiant Capital to sell shares of common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $200 million from time to time, through the 2022 Common ATM Offering. As of June 30, 2022, we had sold an aggregate of 239.7 million shares of common stock pursuant to the 2022 Common ATM Offering for gross proceeds of $163.4 million. Net proceeds to us, after payment of commissions, were $159.4 million.

· Public Offering of Series D Preferred Stock – On June 3, 2022, we announced the closing of our public offering of 144,000 shares of our Series D Preferred Stock at a price to the public of $25.00 per share. Gross proceeds from the offering were approximately $3.6 million, before deducting offering expenses. Net proceeds to us, after payment of commissions, non-accountable fees and offering expenses were $3.1 million.

· December 2021 Secured Promissory Notes – On December 30, 2021, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain accredited investors providing for the issuance of Senior Notes that bore interest at 8% per annum with an aggregate principal face amount of $66.0 million. The Senior Notes were repaid in March 2022.

· Margin Accounts Payable – During the year ended December 31, 2021, we entered into leverage agreements on certain brokerage accounts, whereby we borrowed $18.5 million. The margin accounts payable were repaid during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

· Purchase of Treasury Stock – During the six months ended June 30, 2022, Alpha Fund purchased 16.1 million shares of our common stock for $6.2 million and 53,033 shares of our Series D Preferred Stock for $1.3 million, accounted for as treasury stock as of June 30, 2022.

We believe our current cash on hand combined with the proceeds from the 2022 ATM Offering are sufficient to meet our operating and capital requirements for at least the next twelve months from the date the financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2022 are issued.

Critical Accounting Policies

Business Combination

We allocate the purchase price of an acquired business to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. Any excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Acquired customer relations, technology, tradenames and know how are recognized at fair value. The purchase price allocation process requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date with respect to intangible assets. Direct transaction costs associated with the business combination are expensed as incurred. The allocation of the consideration transferred in certain cases may be subject to revision based on the final determination of fair values during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date. We include the results of operations of the business that we have acquired in our consolidated results prospectively from the date of acquisition.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquire is re-measured to fair value at the acquisition date; any gains or losses arising from such re-measurement are recognized in profit or loss.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable for a smaller reporting company.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We have established disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, with the assistance of other members of the Company’s management, have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based upon our evaluation, each of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q because the Company has not yet completed its remediation of the material weakness previously identified and disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, the end of its most recent fiscal year.

Specifically, management has determined that we do not have sufficient resources in our accounting function, which restricts our ability to gather, analyze and properly review information related to financial reporting, including applying complex accounting principles relating to consolidation accounting, fair value estimates and analysis of financial instruments for proper classification in the consolidated financial statements, in a timely manner. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties during our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness. Our primary user access controls (i.e. provisioning, de-provisioning, privileged access and user access reviews) to ensure appropriate authorization and segregation of duties that would adequately restrict user and privileged access to the financially relevant systems and data to appropriate personnel were not designed and/or implemented effectively. We did not design and/or implement sufficient controls for program change management to certain financially relevant systems affecting our processes.

A material weakness is a control deficiency or combination of control deficiencies that result in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.

Field: /Page

Planned Remediation

Management continues to work to improve its controls related to our material weaknesses, specifically relating to user access and change management surrounding our IT systems and applications. Management will continue to implement measures to remediate material weaknesses, such that these controls are designed, implemented, and operating effectively. The remediation actions include: (i) enhancing design and documentation related to both user access and change management processes and control activities; and (ii) developing and communicating additional policies and procedures to govern the area of IT change management. In order to achieve the timely implementation of the above, management has commenced the following actions and will continue to assess additional opportunities for remediation on an ongoing basis.

· Engaging a third-party specialist to assist management with improving the Company’s overall control environment, focusing on change management and access controls;

· Implementing new applications and systems that are aligned with management’s focus on creating strong internal controls; and

· Continuing to increase headcount across the Company, with a particular focus on hiring individuals with strong Sarbanes Oxley and internal control backgrounds.

We are currently working to improve and simplify our internal processes and implement enhanced controls, as discussed above, to address the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and to remedy the ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. These material weaknesses will not be considered to be remediated until the applicable remediated controls are operating for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.

Despite the existence of these material weaknesses, we believe that the consolidated financial statements included in the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting.

Except as detailed above, during the most recent fiscal quarter of 2022, there were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Blockchain Mining Supply and Services, Ltd.

On November 28, 2018, Blockchain Mining Supply and Services, Ltd. (“Blockchain Mining”) a vendor who sold computers to our subsidiary, filed a Complaint (the “Complaint”) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against us and our subsidiary, Digital Farms, Inc. (f/k/a Super Crypto Mining, Inc.), in an action captioned Blockchain Mining Supply and Services, Ltd. v. Super Crypto Mining, Inc. and DPW Holdings, Inc. , Case No. 18-cv-11099.

The Complaint asserts claims for breach of contract and promissory estoppel against us and our subsidiary arising from the subsidiary’s alleged failure to honor its obligations under the purchase agreement. The Complaint seeks monetary damages in excess of $1.4 million, plus attorneys’ fees and costs.

We believe that these claims are without merit and intend to vigorously defend them.

On April 13, 2020, we and our subsidiary, jointly filed a motion to dismiss the Complaint in its entirety as against us, and the promissory estoppel claim as against our subsidiary. On the same day, our subsidiary also filed a partial Answer to the Complaint in connection with the breach of contract claim.

On April 29, 2020, Blockchain Mining filed an amended complaint (the “Amended Complaint”). The Amended Complaint asserts the same causes of action and seeks the same damages as the initial Complaint.

On May 13, 2020, we and our subsidiary, jointly filed a motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint in its entirety as against us, and the promissory estoppel claim as against of our subsidiary. On the same day, our subsidiary also filed a partial Answer to the Amended Complaint in connection with the breach of contract claim.

In its partial Answer, the Company’s subsidiary admitted to the validity of the contract at issue and also asserted numerous affirmative defenses concerning the proper calculation of damages.

On December 4, 2020, the Court issued an Order directing the Parties to engage in limited discovery which was completed on March 4, 2021. In connection therewith, the Court also denied the previously filed motion to dismiss without prejudice.

On June 2, 2021, we and our subsidiary filed a motion to dismiss (the “Motion to Dismiss”) the Amended Complaint in its entirety as against us, and the promissory estoppel claim as against the subsidiary.

On August 8, 2022, the Court issued an Order denying the Motion to Dismiss, in its entirety.

The deadline for us and our subsidiaries to file an Answer to the Amended Complaint is September 2, 2022.

Based on our assessment of the facts underlying the claims, the uncertainty of litigation, and the preliminary stage of the case, we cannot reasonably estimate the potential loss or range of loss that may result from this action. Notwithstanding, we have established a reserve in the amount of the unpaid portion of the purchase agreement. An unfavorable outcome may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Ding Gu (a/k/a Frank Gu) and Xiaodan Wang Litigation

On January 17, 2020, Ding Gu (a/k/a Frank Gu) (“Gu”) and Xiaodan Wang (“Wang” and with “Gu” collectively, “Plaintiffs”), filed a Complaint (the “Complaint”) in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York against us and our Chief Executive Officer, Milton C. Ault, III, in an action captioned Ding Gu (a/k/a Frank Gu) and Xiaodan Wang v. DPW Holdings, Inc. and Milton C. Ault III (a/k/a Milton Todd Ault III a/k/a Todd Ault) , Index No. 650438/2020.

Field: /Page

The Complaint asserts causes of action for declaratory judgment, specific performance, breach of contract, conversion, attorneys’ fees, permanent injunction, enforcement of Guaranty, unjust enrichment, money had and received, and fraud arising from: (i) a series of transactions entered into between Gu and us, as well as Gu and Ault, in or about May 2019; and (ii) a term sheet entered into between Plaintiffs and DPW, in or about July 2019. The Complaint seeks, among other things, monetary damages in excess of $1.1 million, plus a decree of specific performance directing DPW to deliver unrestricted shares of DPW’s common stock to Gu, plus attorneys’ fees and costs.

We believe that these claims are without merit and intend to vigorously defend them.

On May 4, 2020, we and Ault jointly filed a motion to dismiss the Complaint in its entirety, with prejudice (the “Motion to Dismiss”).

On July 28, 2021, the Court conducted oral argument (the “Oral Argument”), via Microsoft Teams, in connection with the Motion to Dismiss. During the Oral Argument, the Court informed the parties that the Court would be dismissing the fraud claim, in its entirety, and provided Plaintiffs an opportunity to amend their fraud claim within sixty days of the date of the Oral Argument. The Court reserved decision on the other causes of action.

On December 14, 2021, the Court entered a Decision and Order in connection with the Motion to Dismiss (the “Order”) whereby the Court dismissed Plaintiff’s causes of action for specific performance, conversion, permanent injunction, and reiterated its prior determination that the fraud claim was also dismissed. The Court denied the Motion to Dismiss in connection with the other causes of action asserted in the Complaint.

On January 26, 2022, we and Ault filed an Answer to the Complaint and asserted numerous affirmative defenses.

Based on our assessment of the facts underlying the above claims, the uncertainty of litigation, and the preliminary stage of the case, we cannot reasonably estimate the potential loss or range of loss that may result from this action. An unfavorable outcome may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Subpoena

The Company and certain affiliates and related parties have received several subpoenas from the SEC for the production of documents and testimony. The Company is fully cooperating with this non-public, fact-finding inquiry and management believes that the Company has operated its business in compliance with all applicable laws. The subpoenas expressly provide that the inquiry is not to be construed as an indication by the Commission or its staff that any violations of the federal securities laws have occurred, nor should they be considered a reflection upon any person, entity or security. However, there can be no assurance as to the outcome of this matter.

Other Litigation Matters

The Company is involved in litigation arising from other matters in the ordinary course of business. We are regularly subject to claims, suits, regulatory and government investigations, and other proceedings involving labor and employment, commercial disputes, and other matters. Such claims, suits, regulatory and government investigations, and other proceedings could result in fines, civil penalties, or other adverse consequences.

Certain of these outstanding matters include speculative, substantial or indeterminate monetary amounts. We record a liability when we believe that it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If we determine that a loss is reasonably possible and the loss or range of loss can be estimated, we disclose the reasonably possible loss. We evaluate developments in our legal matters that could affect the amount of liability that has been previously accrued, and the matters and related reasonably possible losses disclosed, and make adjustments as appropriate. Significant judgment is required to determine both likelihood of there being and the estimated amount of a loss related to such matters.

With respect to our other outstanding matters, based on our current knowledge, we believe that the amount or range of reasonably possible loss will not, either individually or in aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, the outcome of such matters is inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The risks described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, and the trading price of our common stock could decline. These risk factors do not identify all risks that we face - our operations could also be affected by factors that are not presently known to us or that we currently consider to be immaterial to our operations. Due to risks and uncertainties, known and unknown, our past financial results may not be a reliable indicator of future performance and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods. The Risk Factors section of our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K remains current in all material respects, with the exception that the following section of Risk Factors section of our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K is hereby amended and restated in its entirety:

Risks Related to Related Party Transactions

Avalanche

We have lent a substantial amount of funds to Avalanche, a related party, whose ability to repay us is subject to significant doubt; in addition, we currently beneficially own a significant percentage of Avalanche’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, for which there is presently no market.

On September 6, 2017, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Avalanche (as amended, the “AVLP Loan Agreement”) with an effective date of August 21, 2017 pursuant to which we provided Avalanche a non-revolving credit facility. The AVLP Loan Agreement was increased to up to $20.0 million in June of 2021 and extended to December 31, 2023. Until recently, we held a convertible note issued to us by AVLP in the amount of $20.0 million (the “Prior AVLP Note”).

While Avalanche received funds from a third party in the amount of $2.75 million in early April of 2019 in consideration for its issuance of a convertible promissory note to such third party (the “Third Party Note”), $2.7 million was used to pay an outstanding receivable due us and no amount was used to repay the debt Avalanche owes us pursuant to the AVLP Loan Agreement. On October 12, 2021, Ault Alpha, an affiliate of ours, repaid the Third Party Note in full and also acquired a warrant to purchase 1.6 million shares of AVLP common stock. In consideration therefor, AVLP issued Ault Alpha a term note in the principal amount of $3.6 million, which term note had a maturity date of June 30, 2022.

On June 27, 2022, AVLP exchanged the term note it had issued to Ault Alpha for a 10% senior secured convertible note in the principal face amount of $3,797,260 due June 15, 2024 (the “Ault Alpha Note”). The Ault Alpha Note is convertible, subject to adjustment, at $0.50 per share. AVLP also issued Ault Alpha a warrant to purchase an aggregate of 1,617,647 shares of Avalanche common stock at an exercise price of $0.50. Pursuant to a security agreement entered into by Avalanche and Ault Alpha, as amended by an intercreditor agreement entered into by and among the foregoing parties, our company and certain other persons, Ault Alpha has a second priority interest in AVLP’s assets securing the repayment of the Ault Alpha Note.

On July 11, 2022, AVLP issued us a 10% senior secured convertible note in the principal face amount of $3,000,000 due July 10, 2024 (the “AVLP Note”). The AVLP Note is convertible, subject to adjustment, at $0.50 per share. AVLP also issued us warrants to purchase an aggregate of 40,998,272 shares of Avalanche common stock at an exercise price of $0.50. Pursuant to a security agreement entered into by Avalanche and Ault Alpha, as amended by an intercreditor agreement entered into by and among the foregoing parties, our company and certain other persons, we have a first priority interest in AVLP’s assets securing the repayment of the AVLP Note.

On June 1, 2022, we converted the entire principal and accrued interest on the Prior AVLP Note into an aggregate of 51,889,168 shares of common stock of Avalanche, representing approximately 90.2% of Avalanche’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock. There is currently no liquid market for the Avalanche common stock. Consequently, even if we were inclined to sell such shares of common stock on the open market, our ability to do so would be severely limited. Avalanche is not current in its filings with the Commission and is not required to register the shares of its common stock underlying the Prior AVLP Note or any other loan arrangement we have made with Avalanche described above.

There is some doubt as to whether Avalanche will ever have the ability to repay its debt to us, as well as our ability to sell the shares we beneficially own since at present there is no market for these shares. If we are unable to recoup our investment in Avalanche in the foreseeable future or at all, such failure would have a materially adverse effect on our financial condition and future prospects.

Milton C. Ault, III and William Horne, our Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, respectively, and two of our directors are directors of Avalanche. In addition, Philou is the controlling stockholder of Avalanche.

Milton C. Ault, III and William Horne, our Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, respectively, and two of our directors, are also directors of Avalanche. In addition, Philou is the controlling stockholder of Avalanche. Certain conflicts of interest between us, on the one hand, and Avalanche, on the other hand, may arise relating to commercial or strategic opportunities or initiatives, in addition to the conflicts related to the debt that Avalanche owes us. For example, Messrs. Ault and Horne may find it difficult to determine how to meet their fiduciary duties to us as well as Avalanche, which could result in a less favorable result for us than would be the case if they were solely directors of our company. Further, even if Messrs. Ault and Horne were able to successfully meet their fiduciary obligations to us and Avalanche, the fact that they are members of the board of directors of both companies could attenuate their ability to focus on our business and best interests, possibly to the detriment of both companies. Mr. Ault’s control of Philou through Ault & Company only enhances the risk inherent in having Messrs. Ault and Horne serve as directors of both our company and Avalanche.”

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

From April 1, 2022 through June 30, 2022, Ault Alpha LP purchased 15,125,000 shares of common stock and 10,456 shares of Series D Preferred Stock.
