REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Agrify Corporation and Subsidiaries
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Agrify Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Agrify Corporation and Subsidiaries
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited, before the effects of the discontinued operations discussed in Note 1 and Note 6 and a reverse stock split discussed in Note 1, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Agrify Corporation and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ (deficit) equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, before the effects of the discontinued operations discussed in Note 1 and Note 6 and a reverse stock split discussed in Note 1, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the effects of the discontinued operations discussed in Note 1 and Note 6 or the reverse stock split discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, and accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance about whether such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied. Those adjustments were audited by other auditors.
Explanatory Paragraph – Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 1, the Company has a significant working capital deficiency, has incurred significant losses and needs to raise additional funds to meet its obligations and sustain its operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Note 1 — Overview, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
Agrify is a developer of branded innovative solutions for the cannabis and hemp industries. Our Señorita brand offers consumers hemp-derived tetrahydrocannabinol (“THC”) beverages that mirror well-known cocktails like a margarita – in three flavors – classic Lime Jalapeño Margarita, Mango Margarita, and Paloma. Known for its clean, fresh taste and commitment to high-quality, natural ingredients, Señorita offers a low-sugar, low-calorie alternative to alcoholic beverages and is available at top retailers including Total Wine, ABC Fine Wine & Spirits, and Binny’s in nine U.S. states and Canada, with plans for expansion and future availability in premier on-premises destinations.
In addition to beverages, Agrify has also historically been a leading provider of innovative cultivation and extraction solutions for the cannabis industry. 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. Additionally, prior to its sale on December 31, 2024, our proprietary micro-environment-controlled Agrify Vertical Farming Units (“VFUs”) enabled cultivators to produce high quality products for the cannabis industry.
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 ten wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries, which are collectively referred to as the “Subsidiaries” and the Company also has ownership interests in certain companies.
On December 12, 2024, the Company acquired certain assets from Double or Nothing, LLC (“Double or Nothing”), the owner and creator of the Señorita brand of hemp-derived drinks as part of the Company’s strategic plan to reposition itself as a distributor of hemp-derived beverages (and similar products).
On December 31, 2024, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with CP Acquisitions, LLC (“CP”), an entity affiliated with Raymond Chang, the Company’s former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Under the Purchase Agreement, CP acquired assets from the Company relating to the Company’s Vertical Farming Units (“VFUs”), including the related Agrify total-turnkey (“TTK”) solution assets and Agrify InsightsTM software solutions (collectively the “Cultivation Business”). The sale of the Cultivation Business occurred following signing on December 31, 2024. The results of the Cultivation Business is presented as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and, as such, have been excluded from continuing operations. Further, the Company reclassified the assets and liabilities of the Cultivation Business to discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2023. For further discussion on the discontinued operations, refer to Note 6.

Any fractional shares in connection with these reverse stock splits were rounded up to the nearest whole share and no stockholders received cash in lieu of fractional shares. The reverse stock splits had no impact on the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company is authorized to issue pursuant to its articles of incorporation or on the par value per share of the Common Stock. Proportional adjustments were made to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of the Company’s outstanding stock options and warrants, the exercise price or conversion price (as applicable) of the Company’s outstanding stock options and warrants, and the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Company’s equity incentive plan. All share and per share information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the impact of these reverse stock splits.

As disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 17, 2023, the audit committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) concluded that, as a result of inadvertent errors in the accounting for warrants previously issued by the Company, it was appropriate to restate the Company’s previously issued unaudited consolidated interim financial statements as of and for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2022 included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for such periods in amended quarterly reports for the affected periods. As a result of such restatements, the Company was unable to timely file the 2022 Form 10-K, the First Quarter 2023 Form 10-Q and the Second Quarter 2023 Form 10-Q without unreasonable effort or expense.
On April 18, 2023, the Company received a notice from Nasdaq (the “April Nasdaq Notice”) that it was noncompliant with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) as a result of its failure to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Form 10-K”) with the SEC by the required due date.
On May 17, 2023, the Company received a second notice from Nasdaq (the “May Nasdaq Notice”) that it remained noncompliant with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) as a result of its failure to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 (the “First Quarter Form 10-Q”) with the SEC by the required due date.
On August 16, 2023, the Company received a third notice from Nasdaq that it remain noncompliant with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) as a result of its failure to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023 (the “Second Quarter Form 10-Q”) with the SEC by the required filing date (the “August Nasdaq Notice” and, together with the April Nasdaq Notice and the May Nasdaq Notice, the “Nasdaq Notices”).
The Nasdaq granted the Company an exception until October 16, 2023, to file its 2022 Form 10-K and First and Second Quarter 2023 Forms 10-Q. The Nasdaq Notice had no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s Common Stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC.
On October 17, 2023, the Company received a Staff Delisting Determination (the “Staff Determination”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements under the Listing Rule as a result of its failure to file the First Quarter Form 10-Q, the Second Quarter Form 10-Q and the Form 10-K for 2023 (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 (the “November Nasdaq Notice” and, together with the April Nasdaq Notice, the May Nasdaq Notice, and the August Nasdaq Notice, the “Nasdaq Notices”).

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. The compliance date of April 15, 2024 represents the full extent of the Panel’s discretion to grant continued listing while the Company is non-compliant with Nasdaq Listing Rules. 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.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
Accounting for Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of Agrify Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, as described above, in accordance with the provisions required by the Consolidation Topic 810 (“ASC 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 subsidiary, Agrify Brands, LLC (“Agrify Brands”), the Company first analyzes whether this entity is a variable interest entity (a “VIE”) in accordance with 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 Agrify Brands 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 this entity, the Company has determined that Agrify Brands is a VIE, and that the Company is the primary
beneficiary. While the Company owns
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates estimates, which include estimates related to accruals, stock-based compensation expense, reported amounts of revenues during the reported period, fair value of warrant liabilities, sales tax liabilities, valuation of deferred tax assets, net realizable value of inventory and collectability of trade accounts, intangible assets, goodwill, and litigation. The Company bases their estimates on historical experience and other market-specific or other relevant assumptions that they believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates or assumptions.
The Company regularly evaluates its assets, including asset groups or reporting units, for impairment in accordance with 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.
Reclassifications
The Company effected a 1-for-20
reverse stock split of its Common Stock on July 5, 2023 and a 1-for-15 reverse stock split of its Common Stock on October 8, 2024. All

Discontinued Operations
On December 31, 2024, the Company entered into and closed a Purchase Agreement with CP. Under the Purchase Agreement, CP acquired assets from the Company relating to the Cultivation Business.
As the sale of the Cultivation Business represented a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, they have been presented in discontinued operations in accordance with ASC 205, Presentation of Financial Statements, separate from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, as applicable. For further discussion, refer to Note 6.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist principally of cash and deposits with maturities of three months or less as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. All cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.
Marketable Securities
The Company’s marketable security investments primarily include investments held in mutual funds, municipal bonds, and corporate bonds. The mutual funds are recorded at fair value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as part of cash and cash equivalents. The municipal and corporate bonds are considered to be held-to-maturity securities and are recorded at amortized cost in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of these investments was estimated using recently executed transactions and market price quotations. The Company considers current assets to be those investments that will mature within the next 12 months, including interest receivable on long-term bonds.
Accounts Receivable, Net
Accounts receivable, net, primarily consists of amounts for goods and services that are billed and currently due from customers. In accordance with the current expect credited loss (“CECL”) impairment model under ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), accounts 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 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, and accounts receivable. Cash equivalents primarily consist of money market funds with original maturities of three months or less, which are invested primarily with U.S. financial institutions. Cash deposits with financial institutions generally exceed federally insured limits. Management believes minimal credit risk exists with respect to these financial institutions and the Company has not experienced any losses on such amounts.
The tables below show customers who account for 10% or more of the Company’s total revenues and 10% or more of the Company’s accounts receivable for the periods presented.
For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not have any customers that accounted for 10% or more of total revenue.
As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s customers that accounted for 10% or more of the total accounts receivable, net, were as follows:

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.
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 | ||||
Furniture and fixtures | ||||
Software | ||||
Vehicles | ||||
Research and development of laboratory equipment | ||||
Machinery and equipment | ||||
Trade show assets | ||||
Leasehold improvements |
The estimated useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment are periodically assessed to determine if changes are appropriate. The Company charges maintenance and repairs to expense as incurred. When the Company retires or disposes of assets, the carrying cost of these assets and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are eliminated from the consolidated balance sheets and any resulting gain or loss is included in the consolidated statements of operations in the period of retirement or disposal.
Costs for capital assets not yet placed into service are capitalized as construction-in-progress and depreciated once placed into service. During construction, costs are accumulated in a construction-in-progress account, with no depreciation. Upon completion, costs are transferred to the appropriate asset account, and depreciation begins when the asset is placed into service.
Goodwill
Goodwill is defined as the excess of cost over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, and more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. A goodwill impairment charge is recorded if the amount by which the Company’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Factors that could lead to a future impairment include material uncertainties such as a significant reduction in projected revenues, a deterioration of projected financial performance, future acquisitions and/or mergers, and/or a decline in the Company’s market value as a result of a significant sustained decline in the Company’s stock price.
Goodwill is not subject to amortization and is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate there might be an impairment. An impaired asset is written down to its estimated fair value based upon the most recent information.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company performed a qualitative analysis for its goodwill impairment test. The Company applies the guidance in ASU 2011-08 Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which provides entities with an option to perform a qualitative assessment (commonly referred to as “Step Zero”) to determine whether further quantitative analysis for impairment of goodwill is necessary. A goodwill impairment charge is recorded if the amount by which our carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Factors that could lead to a future impairment include material uncertainties such as a significant reduction in projected revenues, a deterioration of projected financial performance, future acquisitions and/or mergers, and a decline in our market value as a result of a significant sustained decline in our stock price. As a result of the Company’s Step Zero analysis, no further quantitative impairment test was deemed necessary.
Warrant Liabilities
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 Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“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.
F-13
AGRIFY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, they are recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that are precluded from equity classification, they are recorded as a liability at their initial fair value on the date of issuance and subject to remeasurement on each balance sheet date with changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants to be recognized as an unrealized gain or loss in the consolidated statements of operations.
Convertible Notes Payable
The Company evaluates its convertible instruments to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivative financial instruments to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC 815. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company identify and record certain embedded conversion options (“ECOs”), certain variable-share settlement features, and any related freestanding instruments at their fair values as of the inception date of the agreement and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as an unrealized non-operating, non-cash income or expense for each reporting period at each balance sheet date. The Company reassesses the classification of its derivative instruments at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the contract is reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification. Bifurcated embedded conversion options, variable-share settlement features, and any related freestanding instruments are recorded as a discount to the host instrument which is amortized to interest expense over the life of the respective note using the effective interest method.
Debt Issuance Costs and Debt Discount
The Company may record debt issuance costs and/or debt discounts in connection with the issuance of debt. The Company may cover these costs by paying cash or issuing warrants. These costs are amortized to interest expense over the expected life of the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs, a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed.
Original Issue Discount
Certain convertible debt issued by the Company, may provide the debt holder with an original issue discount. The Company would record the original issue discount to debt discount, reducing the face amount of the note, and is then amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt.
Leases
The Company determines at the inception of an asset contract if such arrangement is or contains a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company classifies leases at the lease commencement date as operating or finance leases and records a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on its consolidated balance sheet for all leases with an initial lease term of greater than 12 months. A lease with an initial term of 12 months or less is not recorded on the balance sheet, but related payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company’s asset contracts may contain both lease and non-lease components. Non-lease components may include maintenance, utilities, and other operating costs. The Company combines the lease and non-lease components of fixed costs in its lease arrangements as a single lease component. Variable costs, such as utilities or maintenance costs, are not included in the measurement of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, but rather are expensed when the event determining the amount of variable consideration to be paid occurs.
Lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of future lease payments over the expected lease term. The Company determines the present value of future lease payments by using its estimated secured incremental borrowing rate for that lease term as the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. The Company estimates its secured incremental borrowing rate for each lease based on the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term.
Certain of the Company’s leases include options to extend or terminate the lease. The amounts determined for the Company’s right-of-use assets and lease liabilities generally do not assume that renewal options or early-termination provisions, if any, are exercised unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options.
Contract Liabilities
Contract Liabilities includes amounts collected, billed in excess of revenue or customer deposits that the Company can recognize. The Company recognizes contract liabilities and non-current contract liabilities as revenue as the related performance obligation is satisfied. The Company records contract liabilities that will be recognized during the succeeding twelve-month period as a current liability on the consolidated balance sheets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts receivable, contingent considerations, long-term debt, related party debt, and warrant liabilities. Refer to Note 4 - Fair Value Measures, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for details of the Company’s financial instruments.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company measures all stock options and other stock-based awards granted to employees, directors and consultants based on the fair value on the date of the grant and recognizes compensation expense of those awards over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. Forfeitures are recognized as incurred. Historically, the Company has issued stock options to employees, directors and consultants with only service-based vesting conditions and records the expense for these awards using the straight-line method.
The Company classifies stock-based compensation expense in its consolidated statements of operations in the same manner in which the award recipient’s payroll costs are classified.
The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option grant on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The expected term of the Company’s stock options has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method for awards that qualify as “plain-vanilla” options. The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. The expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends and does not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for business acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting, in accordance with which assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their respective fair values at the acquisition date. The fair value of the consideration paid is assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
The Company’s management exercises significant judgments in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as intangibles and their estimated useful lives. Fair value and useful life determinations are based on, among other factors, estimates of future expected cash flows, royalty cost savings and appropriate discount rates used in computing present values. These judgments may materially impact the estimates used in allocating acquisition date fair values to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as the Company’s current and future operating results. Actual results may vary from these estimates which may result in adjustments to goodwill and acquisition date fair values of assets and liabilities during a measurement period or upon a final determination of asset and liability fair values, whichever occurs first. Adjustments to the fair value of assets and liabilities made after the end of the measurement period are recorded within the Company’s operating results.
Revenue Recognition
Overview
We generate revenue from equipment sales and hemp-derived beverage sales.
In accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 606”), we recognize revenue from contracts with customers using a five-step model, which is described below:
● | identify the customer contract; |
● | identify performance obligations that are distinct; |
● | determine the transaction price; |
● | allocate the transaction price to the distinct performance obligations; and |
● | recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied. |
Revenue is recognized when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of a promised product or service to a customer. The Company satisfies its performance obligation upon transferring goods or services to a customer and transfers control upon the customer taking possession.

AGRIFY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Significant Judgments
The Company enters into contracts that may include various combinations of equipment and, services 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 standalone selling price (“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. 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 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.
The Company utilizes the cost-plus margin method to determine the SSP for equipment and 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.
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 and the Company has a future obligation to transfer certain proprietary products.
In accordance with ASC 606, 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, 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 Topic 450, Accounting for Contingencies, (“ASC 450”) 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 $
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 extraction equipment.

Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax asset will not be realized.
When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the consolidated financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company recognizes the benefit of a tax position when it is effectively settled. ASC 740, provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits. ASC 740 clarifies that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion of an examination by a taxing authority. For tax positions considered effectively settled, the Company recognizes the full amount of the tax benefit.
The Company’s provision for income taxes is measured using an annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items within the period presented. To determine the annual effective tax rate, the Company estimates both the total income (loss) before income taxes for the full year and the jurisdictions in which that income (loss) is subject to tax. The actual effective tax rate for the full year may differ from these estimates if income (loss) before income taxes is greater than or less than what was estimated or if the allocation of income (loss) to jurisdictions in which it is taxed is different from the estimated allocations.
The provision for income taxes represents Federal, state and local income taxes. The effective rate differs from statutory rates due to the effect of certain nondeductible expenses. Our effective tax rate will change from quarter to quarter based on recurring and non-recurring factors including, but not limited to, the geographical mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation, and state and local income taxes. In addition, changes in judgment from the evaluation of new information resulting in the recognition, derecognition or re-measurement of a tax position taken in a prior annual period is recognized separately in the quarter of the change.
Tax contingencies are recorded, if needed, to address potential exposure involving tax positions the Company has taken that could be challenged by tax authorities. These potential exposures could result from applications of various statutes, rules, regulations and interpretations. Any estimates of tax contingencies contain assumptions and judgments about potential actions by taxing jurisdictions. Any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions would be included as part of the income tax provision. The Company’s conclusions regarding uncertain tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon ongoing analysis of or changes in tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof as well as other factors.
Net Loss Per Share
The Company presents basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to holders of the Company’s Common Stock in conformity with the one-class method. The Company computes basic loss per share by dividing net loss available to Common Stockholders by the weighted-average number of Common Stock outstanding. Diluted loss/income per share adjusts basic loss 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 years ended December 31, 2024 and 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 those periods.
Net loss per share calculations for all periods have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock splits effected on July 5, 2023 and October 8, 2024.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Announced Accounting Pronouncements
In December 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.

This guidance requires additional disclosure of certain amounts included in the expense captions presented on the Statement of Operations as well as disclosures about selling expenses. The ASU is effective on a prospective basis, with the option for retrospective application, for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (“ASU 2024-04”), which clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion. ASU 2024-04 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted for all entities that have adopted the amendments in Update 2020-06. Adoption can be on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the disclosure impact that ASU 2024-04 may have on its financial statement presentation and disclosures.
Other recent accounting pronouncements did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

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.

Accrued acquisition liabilities
Resulting from the 2021 acquisitions of Precision and Cascade from Sinclair (“Precision and Cascade”), 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.
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 consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 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.
F-21
AGRIFY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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 December 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, accounts 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 payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair value based on the short-term nature of these instruments. |
● | Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for estimated credit losses, which approximates 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 Topic 470, Debt (“ASC 470”). |
● | The Company’s warrant liabilities are marked-to-market each reporting period with the changes in fair value of warrant liabilities recorded in other income (expense), net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations until the warrants are exercised. The fair value of the warrant liabilities are estimated using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. |
● | As detailed in Note 12 - Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit), during the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company amended Pre-Funded Warrants that had been issued to a related party such that they again became liability classified. These warrants were marked to fair value upon the execution of this amendment in August 2024. Through an additional amendment executed as of December 31, 2024, the warrants again met the requirements for equity classification and were marked to fair value at the moment of the amendment and then reclassified from liability to equity. The warrants will not be marked to fair value on a recurring basis. |

Warrant Liabilities
The estimated fair value of the warrant liabilities as of December 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.

Note 11 — 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 an original lease term of 12 months or less at inception were not reflected in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and those lease costs are expensed on a straight-line basis over the respective term. Leases with a term greater than 12 months were reflected as non-current right-of-use assets and current and non-current lease liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Stock options granted under the Company’s 2022 Plan are generally non-qualified and are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of grant. The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model incorporates certain assumptions for inputs including a risk-free market interest rate, expected dividend yield of the underlying Common Stock, expected option life, and expected volatility in the market value of the underlying Common Stock. No stock options were granted during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. The risk-free interest rate is based upon quoted market yields for United States Treasury debt securities with a term similar to the expected term. The expected dividend yield is based upon the Company’s history of having never issued a dividend and management’s current expectation of future action surrounding dividends. The Company calculates the expected volatility of the stock price based on the corresponding volatility of the Company’s peer group stock price for a period consistent with the underlying instrument’s expected term. The expected lives for such grants were based on the simplified method for employees and directors. Forfeitures are accounted for when they occur.

The Company continually evaluates the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets and adjusts the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets by the valuation allowance to the extent the future realization of the deferred tax assets is more likely than not. The Company considers many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of its deferred tax assets, including its recent cumulative earnings experience by taxing jurisdiction, expectation of future taxable income or loss, the carryforward periods available to the Company for tax reporting purposes, and other relevant factors.
As of December 31, 2024, based on the Company’s history of earnings and its assessment of future earnings, management believes that it is more likely than not that future taxable income will not be sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets. Therefore full valuation allowance has been applied to deferred tax assets.
Effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2021, taxpayers are required to capitalize any expenses incurred that are considered incidental to research and experimentation (“R&E”) activities under U.S. Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Section 174. While taxpayers historically had the option of deducting these expenses under IRC Section 174, the December 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act mandates capitalization and amortization of R&E expenses for tax years beginning after December 31, 2021. Expenses incurred in connection with R&E activities in the U.S. must be amortized over a 5-year period if incurred, and R&E expenses incurred outside the U.S. must be amortized over a 15-year period. R&E activities are broader in scope than qualified research activities that are considered under IRC Section 41 (relating to the research tax credit).

Note 16 — Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share calculations for all periods have been adjusted to reflect the Company’s reverse stock splits. Net loss per share was calculated based on the weighted-average number of the Company’s Common Stock outstanding.
Basic net loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of shares 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 years ended December 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:

from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the effect would be to reduce the net loss per share. Therefore, the weighted-average
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding used to calculate both basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to holders of the
Company’s Common Stock is the same.
