DECEMBER 31, ~~2022~~2023

(UNAUDITED)

~~NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY~~1. DESCRIPTION OF ~~SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES~~BUSINESS

Overview

On March 15, 2023, Ecoark Holdings Inc. changed its name to BitNile Metaverse Inc. and subsequently on November 1, 2023, it changed its name to RiskOn International, Inc (“~~Ecoark Holdings”~~ROI” or the “Company”). The Company also changed its ticker symbol from BNMV to ROI. The change in both name and ticker is underscored by the Company’s commitment to developing a vertically integrated community while creating a seamless and enriched user experience. The Company is a holding company, incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 19, 2007.

On August 25, 2023, the Company’s former subsidiary Zest Labs, along with the Company and Zest Labs Holdings, LLC (owned by Gary Metzger, a current board member of the Company and therefore a related party) (the “Purchaser”), entered into a stock purchase agreement, whereby the Purchaser purchased 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Zest Labs from the Company in exchange for the Purchaser agreeing to distribute any net proceeds from any new or ongoing intellectual property litigation or the sale or licensing of any intellectual property of Zest Labs to the Company’s shareholders of record as of November 15, 2022. As a result, Zest Labs is no longer a subsidiary of the Company. All the assets and liabilities have been assumed by the Purchaser and the Company recorded a gain of $683,152 from the disposal of Zest Labs.

Through December 31, ~~2022, Ecoark Holdings’~~2023, the Company’s former wholly owned subsidiaries ~~with the exception of Agora Digital Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Agora”) and Zest Labs, Inc. (“Zest Labs”)~~ have been treated for accounting purposes as divested. ~~See below~~Please refer to our Annual Report for the year ended March 31, 2023 (“2023 Annual Report”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on July 14, 2023 for details on all of our prior subsidiaries that were divested in ~~this Note 1~~the year ended March 31, 2023 and ~~Note 2 “Discontinued Operations.” As a result~~an overview of the ~~divestitures, all~~business conducted in those subsidiaries. This quarterly report on Form 10-Q (the “Report”) includes only those subsidiaries as of December 31, 2023. The comparative financial statements for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022 reflect the operations of those subsidiaries that were sold during the year ended March 31, 2023 as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and as assets and liabilities of ~~the former subsidiaries have been reclassified to~~ discontinued operations on the condensed consolidated balance ~~sheet~~sheets.

The BitNile.com metaverse (the “Metaverse”) represents a significant development in the online metaverse landscape. By integrating various elements such as virtual markets, real world goods marketplaces and VIP experiences, gaming, social activities, sweepstakes, gambling, and more, the Company aims to revolutionize the way people interact online.

The Company’s principal subsidiaries consisted of Ecoark, Inc. (“Ecoark”), a Delaware corporation which was the parent of Zest Labs, Banner Midstream Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Banner Midstream”) andBankruptcy Filings

On November 1, 2023, Agora which was assigned the membership interest in Trend Discovery Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability corporation (all references to “Trend Holdings” or “Trend” are now synonymous with Agora) from the Company on September 17, 2021 upon its formation, which includesand Bitstream Mining LLC ~~the Company’s Bitcoin mining subsidiary.~~

~~As disclosed in these Notes, the Company had decided it was~~(“Bitstream”), Agora’s sole operating subsidiary, filed petitions for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in the best interests of its stockholders that it divest all of its principal operating assets through a series of spin-offs or stock dividends to the Company’s stockholders. It intended to do so either by engaging in business combinations with existing public companies which have trading symbols and markets like White River Energy Corp (formerly Fortium Holdings Corp.) (“WTRV”) which acquired White River Holdings Corp on July 25, 2022, and Wolf Energy Services, Inc. (formerly Enviro Technologies US, Inc.) (“Wolf Energy”) which acquired Banner Midstream Corp. on September 7, 2022, or by direct dividends. The Company’s plan was also driven by the dividends it must pay to an investor which provided $12 million on June 8, 2022 in exchange for preferred stock and a warrant, the former of which was subsequently amended, and the latter of which was subsequently cancelled. Because all spin-offs require the transactions to be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company did not complete any spin-offs in calendar 2022. Because of the plans to spin-off its principal operating subsidiaries, the Company is searching for one or more operating businesses to acquire. See Note 20. “Subsequent Events” concerning a proposed acquisition. The Company has decided to leave Agora and Zest Labs in the Company and to not proceed with the spin-offs of these entities, although it intends to create a trust to distribute at least 95% of the net proceeds of the pending Zest Labs litigation recoveries, if any, to the Company’s stockholders as of September 30, 2022.

On March 27, 2020, the Company and Banner Energy Services Corp., a Nevada corporation (“Banner Parent”), entered into a Stock Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Banner Purchase Agreement”) to acquire Banner Midstream Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Banner Midstream”). Pursuant to the acquisition, Banner Midstream became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and Banner Parent received shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Banner Midstream.

Banner Midstream had four operating subsidiaries: Pinnacle Frac Transport LLC (“Pinnacle Frac”), Capstone Equipment Leasing LLC (“Capstone”), White River Holdings Corp (“White River”), and Shamrock Upstream Energy LLC (“Shamrock”). Pinnacle Frac provides transportation of frac sand and logistics services to major hydraulic fracturing and drilling operations. Capstone procures and finances equipment to oilfield transportation service contractors. White River is and Shamrock was engaged in oil and gas exploration, production, and drilling operations on over 30,000 cumulative acres of active mineral leases in Louisiana, and Mississippi. All of these operating subsidiaries have since been divested in two separate transactions that occurred in July and September 2022.

~~Overview of Agora Digital Holdings, Inc.~~

~~Bitstream~~GOING CONCERN

Bitstream was organized to be our principal Bitcoin mining subsidiary. Bitstream entered into a series of agreements and arrangements including arranging for a reliable and economical electric power source needed to efficiently mine Bitcoin, order miners, housing infrastructure and other infrastructure to mine Bitcoin and locate a third-party hosting service to operateFor the ~~miners~~three and ~~the service’s more advanced miners.~~

As discussed in this Note 1, Agora has refocused its efforts and will become a power-centric hosting company rather than a Bitcoin mining company and will not hold any Bitcoin in its digital wallets. To that end, Agora entered into a Master Services Agreement (“MSA”) on December 7, 2022 with BitNile, Inc. (“BitNile”), whereby BitNile agreed to provide mining equipment which Agora would host at its West Texas location and supply the electricity for the cryptocurrency mining. The MSA requires Agora to initially provide up to 12MW of electricity at the West Texas site for BitNile’s use. An additional 66MW of power can be made available to BitNile as well for a total of 78MW. To meet this obligation, the Company is required to raise at least $5,000,000 to enable the build out of the hosting facility, including the initial 12MW of power within 45 days of the date of the MSA. As of the date of this Report, this requirement has not been met.

All significant accounting policies related to Pinnacle Frac, Capstone, White River, Shamrock, Barrier Crest and Trend Discovery Capital Management have been removed as these entities are reflected in discontinued operations. For full details on the policies refer to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2022 filed on July 7, 2022.

~~Principles of Consolidation~~

On May 31, 2019, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Trend Discovery Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation for the Company to acquire 100% of Trend Discovery Holdings, LLC pursuant to a merger of Trend with and into the Company (the “Merger”). Trend Discovery Holdings, Inc. ceased doing business upon completion of the merger and Trend Discovery Holdings LLC is the subsidiary of the Company. Upon the formation of Agora on September 17, 2021, Ecoark assigned the membership interest it owned in Trend Holdings to Agora on September 22, 2021 when the Company purchased 100 shares of Agora common stock for $10.

On March 27, 2020, the Company and Banner Parent, entered into the Banner Purchase Agreement to acquire Banner Midstream. Pursuant to the acquisition, Banner Midstream became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and Banner Parent received shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Banner Midstream. The Company sold all divisions of Banner Midstream in July 2022 and September 2022 as discussed herein.

~~The Company applies the guidance of Topic 810~~ ~~Consolidation~~ of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) to determine whether and how to consolidate another entity. Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 810-10-15-10 all majority-owned subsidiaries—all entities in which a parent has a controlling financial interest—are consolidated except when control does not rest with the parent.

ECOARK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
DECEMBER 31, 2022

Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 810-10-15-8, the usual condition for a controlling financial interest is ownership of a majority voting interest, and, therefore, as a general rule ownership by one reporting entity, directly or indirectly, of more than 50 percent of the outstanding voting shares of another entity is a condition pointing toward consolidation. The power to control may also exist with a lesser percentage of ownership, for example, by contract, lease, agreement with other stockholders, or by court decree.

The Company has utilized the guidance under ASC 810-10-55-4B, Case A for a Change that has resulted in the recognition of non-controlling interest. On October 1, 2021, Agora issued restricted common stock to non-employee directors, management, employees and advisors. As a result of the restricted common share issuances, the Company owns now owns less than 100% of Agora (approximately 89%). The Company expects it will continue to control Agora until it completes the distribution of Agora common stock to its security holders described above; after that event occurs, it may still have sufficient equity ownership to control Agora unless one or more third parties acquire a larger equity position.

During the six months ended September 30, 2022, Agora issued 400,000 shares of common stock to consultants and management. As a result of these issuances, the Company’s ownership percentage in Agora dropped from approximately 90% to approximately 89%.

The Company sold both White River and Banner Midstream (Pinnacle/Capstone) in July and September 2022, respectively. These entities are no longer subsidiaries of the Company. The Company has investments in WTRV and Wolf ~~Energy~~ that represent the shares it received for the sale of these entities. The investment in WTRV is in non-voting preferred shares, and Management has concluded that the Company is not the primary beneficiary in this transaction, and thus no consolidation is required for White River as a variable interest entity. The Company currently owns approximately 65% of the total issued common shares of Wolf ~~Energy~~ ~~and has consolidated Wolf~~ ~~Energy; however, the Company expects to distribute these shares to its stockholders of record as of September 30, 2022, and thus has reflected Wolf~~ ~~Energy~~ ~~in the discontinued operations of the Company for the~~ nine months ended December 31, ~~2022.~~

~~Reclassifications~~

The Company has reclassified certain amounts in the December 31, 2021 condensed consolidated financial statements to be consistent with the December 31, 2022 presentation, including the reclassification of Barrier Crest, TCM, White River, Pinnacle Frac, and Capstone assets and liabilities from continuing operations to held for sale and reclassifications of operations of Barrier Crest, TCM, White River, Pinnacle Frac, and Capstone to discontinued operations. The March 31, 2022 consolidated balance sheet has been reclassified to include the assets and liabilities sold for White River, Pinnacle Frac, and Capstone as well. Additionally, we have removed all rounding of amounts and shares from the December 31, 2021 presentation to conform to the December 31, 2022 presentation. These changes had no impact on the Company’s financial position or result of operations for the periods presented.

~~Noncontrolling Interests~~

~~In accordance with ASC 810-10-45~~ ~~Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements,~~ the Company classifies noncontrolling interests as a component of equity within the consolidated balance sheet. In October 2021 and July 2022, with the issuance of restricted common stock to directors, management and advisors, the Company no longer owns 100% of Agora. As of December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022, approximately 11% and 9.1% is reflected as non-controlling interest of that entity. In addition, we have reflected 30% of Wolf ~~Energy~~ ~~as noncontrolling interests as the Company represents approximately 65% of the voting interests in Wolf~~ ~~Energy~~.

ECOARK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
DECEMBER 31, 2022

~~Use of Estimates~~

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates include, but are not limited to, management’s estimate of provisions required for uncollectible accounts receivable, fair value of assets held for sale and assets and liabilities acquired, impaired value of equipment and intangible assets, including goodwill, asset retirement obligations, estimates of discount rates in lease, liabilities to accrue, fair value of derivative liabilities associated with warrants, cost incurred in the satisfaction of performance obligations, permanent and temporary differences related to income taxes and determination of the fair value of stock awards.

~~Actual results could differ from those estimates.~~

~~Revenue Recognition~~

The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of the revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

~~The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:~~

●

~~Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer~~

●

~~Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract~~

●

~~Step 3: Determine the transaction price~~

●

~~Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract~~

●

~~Step 5: Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation~~

In order to identify the performance obligations in a contract with a customer, a company must assess the promised goods or services in the contract and identify each promised good or service that is distinct. A performance obligation meets ASC 606’s definition of a “distinct” good or service (or bundle of goods or services) if both of the following criteria are met: The customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer (i.e., the good or service is capable of being distinct), and the entity’s promise to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract (i.e., the promise to transfer the good or service is distinct within the context of the contract).

~~If a good or service is not distinct, the good or service is combined with other promised goods or services until a bundle of goods or services is identified that is distinct.~~

The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer. The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both. When determining the transaction price, an entity must consider the effects of all of the following:

●

~~Variable consideration~~

ECOARK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
DECEMBER 31, 2022

●

~~Constraining estimates of variable consideration~~

●

~~The existence of a significant financing component in the contract~~

●

~~Noncash consideration~~

●

~~Consideration payable to a customer~~

Variable consideration is included in the transaction price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

The Company estimates the standalone selling price by considering available information, prioritizing observable inputs such as historical sales, internally approved pricing guidelines and objectives, and the underlying cost of delivering the performance obligation. The transaction price allocated to each performance obligation is recognized when that performance obligation is satisfied, at a point in time or over time as appropriate.

Although, Agora since March 3, 2022, has not recognized revenue from its mining operations, prior to this time, it recognized revenue upon satisfaction of its performance obligation over time in accordance with ASC 606-10-25-27 for its contracts with mining pool operators.

~~The Company accounts for incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer and contract fulfillment costs in accordance with ASC 340-40,~~ ~~Other Assets and Deferred Costs~~. These costs should be capitalized and amortized as the performance obligation is satisfied if certain criteria are met. The Company elected the practical expedient, to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the asset that would otherwise have been recognized is one year or less, and expenses certain costs to obtain contracts when applicable. The Company recognizes an asset from the costs to fulfill a contract only if the costs relate directly to a contract, the costs generate or enhance resources that will be used in satisfying a performance obligation in the future and the costs are expected to be recovered. The Company recognizes the cost of sales of a contract as expense when incurred or when a performance obligation is satisfied. The incremental costs of obtaining a contract are capitalized unless the costs would have been incurred regardless of whether the contract was obtained, are not considered recoverable, or the practical expedient applies.

~~Bitcoin Mining~~

The discussion here should be understood as being applicable while Agora was conducting mining operations which it ceased beginning March 3, 2022. On September 16, 2022, the Company determined to conduct operations as a power-centric hosting company, rather than a Bitcoin mining company. For the past revenue recognition, refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on July 7, 2022.

~~Hosting Revenues~~

Agora effective in September 2022 began efforts to generate revenue via hosting agreements. Agora entered into a MSA on December 7, 2022 with BitNile, whereby BitNile agreed to provide mining equipment which Agora would host at its West Texas location and supply the electricity for the cryptocurrency mining, subject to the Company raising $5 million to support the hosting operations. See Note 1. “Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”

When Agora generates hosting revenues, it will follow ASC 606 as outlined above and recognize revenue upon the completion of the performance obligations as stipulated under the MSA. For the nine months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, no revenue has been recognized under any hosting agreements.

~~All Bitcoin that is mined under these arrangements will be transmitted directly into the third-party digital wallets and the Company will not hold any Bitcoin in its accounts.~~

~~Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Credit Risk~~

The Company considers accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, to be fully collectible. The allowance is based on management’s estimate of the overall collectability of accounts receivable, considering historical losses, credit insurance and economic conditions. Based on these same factors, individual accounts are charged off against the allowance when management determines those individual accounts are uncollectible. Credit extended to customers is generally uncollateralized, however credit insurance is obtained for some customers. Past-due status is based on contractual terms.

~~Fair Value Measurements~~

~~ASC 820~~ ~~Fair Value Measurements~~ defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. ASC 820 classifies these inputs into the following hierarchy:

~~Level 1 inputs: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.~~

Level 2 inputs: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

~~Level 3 inputs: Instruments with primarily unobservable value drivers.~~

The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments such as cash, investments, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of those financial instruments.

~~Bitcoin assets will be presented in current assets. Fair value will be determined by taking the price of the coins from the trading platforms which Agora will most frequently use.~~

~~Bitcoin~~

Prior to March 3, 2022 when the Company was mining Bitcoin, it included the Bitcoin in current assets in the consolidated balance sheets as intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. Bitcoin was recorded at cost less impairment. For the past Bitcoin accounting policies, refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on July 7, 2022. As of December 31, 2022, the Company neither owns nor mines any Bitcoin.

~~Impairment of Long-lived Assets~~

Management reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

~~Segment Information~~

~~The Company follows the provisions of ASC 280-10~~ ~~Segment Reporting.~~ The Company classified its reporting segments in these three divisions through March 31, 2022, when the Company determined that pursuant to ASC 205-20-45-1E that the operations related to the Financial Services segment would be reclassified as held for sale as those criteria identified in the pronouncement had been satisfied as of June 8, 2022. Under ASC 855-10-55, the Company has reflected the reclassification of assets and liabilities of these entities as held for sale and the operations as discontinued operations as of and for the year ended March 31, 2022. As a result of this reclassification, the Company’s segment reporting has removed the Financing segment for the nine months ended December 31, 2021. Effective April 1, 2022, the Company has classified its segments in the Commodity Segment, Technology Segment and Bitcoin Mining Segment. It now charges a monthly overhead charge to the Technology Segment and to the Transportation component and Oil and Gas Production component (each part of the Commodities Segment). On July 25, 2022, the Company sold its oil and gas production business (White River) which is part of the Commodities segment, and on September 7, 2022, the Company sold the remaining part (Pinnacle Frac and Capstone) of the Commodities Segment. Under ASC 855-10-55, the Company has reflected the sale of these entities and the operations as discontinued operations as of and for the nine months ended December 31, 2022. As a result of the share exchanges involving White River and Wolf Energy, and the immaterial nature of the operations of Zest Labs, the Company no longer segregates its operations as most of the limited continuing operations are related to Agora.

~~Earnings (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock~~

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) include additional dilution from common stock equivalents, such as convertible notes, preferred stock, stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants.

Common stock equivalents are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when the Company reports a loss because to do so would be anti-dilutive for periods presented, so only the basic weighted average number of common shares are used in the computations.

~~Derivative Financial Instruments~~
The Company does not currently use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. Management evaluates all of the Company’s financial instruments, including warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. The Company generally uses a Black-Scholes model, as applicable, to value the derivative instruments at inception and subsequent valuation dates when needed. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-measured at the end of each reporting period. The Black-Scholes model is used to estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities.
~~Recently Issued Accounting Standards~~
In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 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 Contract’s in an Entity’s Own Equity. 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. The ASU 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. The ASU simplifies the diluted net income per share calculation in certain areas.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
DECEMBER 31, 2022
The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2021, and early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not believe this new guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued 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” which clarifies and reduces diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. An entity should measure the effect of a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange as follows: i) for a modification or an exchange that is a part of or directly related to a modification or an exchange of an existing debt instrument or line-of-credit or revolving-debt arrangements (hereinafter, referred to as a “debt” or “debt instrument”), as the difference between the fair value of the modified or exchanged written call option and the fair value of that written call option immediately before it is modified or exchanged; ii) for all other modifications or exchanges, as the excess, if any, of the fair value of the modified or exchanged written call option over the fair value of that written call option immediately before it is modified or exchanged. The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity should apply the amendments prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. The Company does not believe this new guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
~~The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.~~
~~Liquidity~~
~~For the nine months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021,~~2023, the Company had a net ~~(loss) income~~loss to controlling interest of common ~~stockholders~~shareholders of ~~$(30,389,490)~~$(14,799,117) and ~~$1,304,848, respectively, has~~$(23,371,421), respectively. In addition, the Company had working capital ~~(deficit)~~deficits of ~~$21,072,036~~$(19,233,244) and ~~$(8,394,850)~~$(25,095,950) as of December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, respectively, and ~~has~~had an accumulated deficit as of December 31, ~~2022~~2023 of ~~$(157,440,304)~~$(232,241,623). As of December 31, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company ~~has $32,642~~had $101,487 in cash and cash equivalents. The working capital at December 31, 2022 is the direct result of the investment in WTRV valued at $30,000,000. This positive working capital is based upon Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and should not be viewed as reflecting available cash or other short term assets. These represent the value of the 1,200 shares of Series A that are expected to be distributed to the Company’s stockholders, as discussed in Note 5.

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company sold its interests in Banner Midstream in two separate transactions on July 25, 2022 and September 7, 2022. In addition, it sold the non-core business of Trend Discovery on June 17, 2022. The Company expects to distribute the common stock it received (or issuable upon conversion of preferred stock) in the sales to its stockholders upon the effective registration statements for the two entities the companies were sold to. See Note 13, “Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock” for information on the Company’s recent $12 million convertible preferred stock financing. That financing has restrictive covenants that require approval of the investor for the Company to engage in any equity or debt financing.
The Company believes that the current cash on hand is not sufficient to conduct planned operations for one year from the issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and it needs to raise capital to support their operations. The Company has recently established a potential source of revenue upon entering into the MSA with BitNile If revenue is generated from the MSA, management expects that it will go towards covering the Company’s operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. However, in order to proceed under the MSA, the Company will require additional financing to fund its future planned operations. Under the terms of the MSA, the Company was required to raise a minimum of $5,000,000 by January 21, 2023, although the parties have verbally agreed to extend that deadline. Based on the Company’s relationship with Ault alliance, Inc. (“Ault”) which is described in this Report, the Company expects Ault will not terminate the MSA, although it could elect to do so for any reason whether related to the Company or Ault. See Note 20. “Subsequent Events” concerning a significant pending transaction with Ault. The MSA contemplates the Company providing services and infrastructure to BitNile to enable the build out of the hosting facility, including the initial 12MW of power within 45 days of the date of the MSA which as disclosed above was not met. We have generated no revenue to date under any hosting arrangement. statements. The accompanying financial statements ~~for the period ended December 31, 2022~~ have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, but the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it establishes continued revenue streams and becomes profitable. Management’s plans to ~~continue as a going concern include raising~~raise additional capital through sales of equity securities and borrowing. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will ~~be successful~~succeed in accomplishing any of its plans. If the Company is not able to obtain the necessary additional financing on a timely basis, the Company will be required to delay, reduce or perhaps even cease the operation of its business.
On April 27, 2023, the Company sold $6.875 million of principal face amount senior secured convertible notes with an original issue discount to sophisticated investors for gross proceeds to the Company of $5.5 million. The ~~ability~~notes mature on April 27, 2024 and are secured by all of the assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, including BNC. As of December 31, 2023, the Company received conversion notices converting an aggregate of $359,121 of the senior secured convertible notes and subsequently issued an aggregate of 693,651 shares of common stock. See note 16, “Shareholders’ Deficit” for additional information.
On October 30, 2023, the registration statement related to ~~continue as a going concern is dependent upon~~the $100,000,000 equity line of credit purchase agreement (the “ELOC Purchase Agreement”) was declared effective by the SEC. During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, the Company raised $1,064,896 from the sale of its ~~ability~~common stock related to ~~successfully secure other sources~~the ELOC Purchase Agreement. See note 16, “Shareholders’ Deficit” for additional information.
On October 16, 2023 and November 8, 2023, the Company issued terms notes in gross amounts of ~~financing~~$210,000 and ~~attain profitable operations.~~ $660,000, respectively, with an institutional investor and received $800,000 in proceeds. See note 14, “Notes Payable” for additional information.

Any future changes in these arrangements or to the Company’s games and related method of distribution may result in a different conclusion.

RiskOn360 Revenue

Basic net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share includes additional dilution from common stock equivalents, such as convertible notes, preferred stock, stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants.
Common stock equivalents are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when the Company reports a loss because to do so would be anti-dilutive for periods presented, so only the basic weighted average number of common shares are used in the computations.

4. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
As discussed in note 1 and the ~~actions to contain its impact.~~
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) includes, among other things, provisions relating to payroll tax credits and deferrals, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credits and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. The CARES Act also established a Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), whereby certain small businesses are eligible for a loan to fund payroll expenses, rent and related costs. We had received funding under the PPP, and a majority of that has been forgiven.
~~NOTE 2: DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS~~
~~On June~~ 17, 2022, the Company sold Trend Discovery to an entity formed by the investment manager of Trend Discovery LP and Trend Discovery SPV for a three-year $4,250,000 secured note (see Note 4). Each of the Trend Discovery subsidiaries including Barrier Crest guaranteed the note and provided Agora with a first lien on its assets. The Company accounted for this sale as a disposal of the business under ASC 205-20-50-1(a). The Company had reclassified the operations of Barrier Crest and Trend Discovery Capital Management (the other entities were inactive) as discontinued operations as the disposal represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. The Company made this determination for these segments to be held for sale as the criteria established under ASC 205-20-45-1E had been satisfied as of June 8, 2022. Under ASC 855-10-55, the Company has reflected the reclassification of assets and liabilities of these entities as held for sale and the operations as discontinued operations as of and for2023 Annual Report, during the year ended March 31, 2022 as well as for the period April 1, 2022 through June 17, 2022. The Company accounted for this sale as a disposal of the business under ASC 205-20-50-1(a) on June 17, 2022 at which time the gain was recognized. As a result of this reclassification, the Company identified the following assets and liabilities that were reclassified from continuing operations to discontinued operations as they are discontinued.
~~On July 25, 2022,~~2023, the Company sold its oil and gas production business (White River) which is part of the Commodities segment. The Company has reflected the reclassification of assets and liabilities of these entities discontinued operations as of and for the period April 1, 2022 through July 31, 2022. The Company used July 31, 2022 as a cut-off as a majorityall of its ~~revenue~~subsidiaries, other than Agora and ~~expenses are billed on a monthly basis and it is more convenient to do so.~~

On ~~September 7, 2022,~~August 25, 2023, the Company sold ~~its transportation business (Pinnacle Frac and Capstone) which is part~~100% of the ~~Commodities segment.~~issued and outstanding stock of Zest Labs to the Purchaser (see note 1). The Company has reflected the reclassification of assets and liabilities of these entities discontinued operations as of and for the period April 1, 2022 through August 31, 2022. The Company used August 31, 2022 as a cut-off as a majority of its revenue and expenses are billed on a monthly basis and it is more convenient to do so. The shares the Company were issued by Wolf ~~Energy~~ ~~represent approximately 70% of the total voting shares of Wolf~~ ~~Energy. As a result, the Company will consolidate Wolf~~ ~~Energy~~ ~~in the condensed consolidated financial statements. It is the intent of the Company to distribute these shares in Wolf~~ ~~Energy~~ ~~to the stockholders of the Company upon the effectiveness of a registration statement filed by Wolf~~ ~~Energy. Therefore, the Company has classified~~reflects the assets and liabilities of Wolf Energy as discontinued operations, as the Company has a 66% voting interest in Wolf Energy that will be part of the Company’s dividend to its shareholders upon the conversion of the preferred shares to common shares and the ~~results of operations of Wolf~~ ~~Energy~~ ~~in discontinued operations.~~subsequent disbursement.

The Company’s loss from discontinued operations includes Trend Discovery, White River Corp, Banner Midstream, Zest Labs and Agora for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, which were sold in four separate transactions on June 17, 2022, July 25, 2022, September 7, 2022, August 25, 2023, respectively, and Agora which filed for bankruptcy on November 1, 2023. The assets and liabilities of Agora as of December 31, 2023 are reflected on the condensed consolidated balance sheet separately as assets and liabilities in bankruptcy.

~~Bitcoin Mining~~
~~Prior to March 3, 2022, the Company recognized revenue for Bitcoin mining as follows:~~
Providing computing power to solve complex cryptographic algorithms in support of Bitcoin blockchains, in a process known as “solving a block”, is an output of the Company’s ordinary activities. The provision of computing power is the only performance obligation in the Company’s contracts with mining pool operators, its customers. When the Company engaged in mining, satisfied its performance obligation over time as it provides computing power.
The contract term is short, limited to the period of time the Company’s miners were contributing to the mining pool computational operations in support of the blockchain, measured in “hash rate” or “hashes per second”. The contract term was the payout period under the Company’s mining pool contracts, which is a twenty-four-hour period. After each contract period, the Company had the right to renew the contract for subsequent, successive payout periods.
Bitcoin received in exchange for providing computing power represents noncash consideration. The fair value of the noncash consideration determined at contract inception was recognized in revenue as the Company performed over the contract term using an output method based on hash rate contributed. Changes in the fair value of the noncash consideration post-contract consideration due to reasons other than form of consideration (that is, other than the price of bitcoin or ether) were estimated under the expected value method but constrained from inclusion in the transaction price (and hence revenue) until end of the contract term when the uncertainty has been resolved and amount was known.
The Company received payment for its provision of hash rate under the Pay-Per-Shares-Plus (“PPS+”) payment method. The payment method contains two components, (1) the block rewards issued by the blockchain network and paid by the mining pool operator, and (2) transaction fees generated from (paid by) blockchain users and distributed (paid out) to individual miners by the mining pool operator. The pool, as a collective entity, develops its own technology that, on one end, gathers individual miner’s hash rate, and on the other end contributes hash rate to the network to compete for block rewards from the network.
For PPS+, as long as individual miners contribute hash rate to the pool, the Company (as an individual miner) is entitled to receive its corresponding amount of block rewards based on the mining pool’s calculation methodology, which is standard across pool operators.
Block rewards are the new coins awarded to Bitcoin miners by the network (bitcoin for the bitcoin network) and is a theoretical number calculated by the mining pool operator based on inputs including difficulty level, network hash rate, and block rewards (for example, 6.25 for Bitcoin). Transaction fees refers to the total fees paid by users of the network to execute transactions.
Digital asset transaction fees are payable to the mining pool operator to cover the costs of maintaining the pool and are deducted from the block reward payout. This fee was deducted from the block reward the Company received and recorded as a reduction of revenue because it does not represent payment for a distinct good or service.
~~Effective September 16, 2022, Agora commenced efforts to become a power-centric hosting company and if it becomes operational it will recognize revenue in accordance with the provisions of ASC 606.~~

As of December 31, 2023, $90,000 of the Company’s gross property, plant, and equipment, was fully depreciated, retired and no gain or loss was recognized from the disposal.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company performed an evaluation of the recoverability of these long-lived assets. As a result of the evaluation, there was impairment of fixed assets necessary in the amount of $1,655,969 in September 2022 as the Agora’s focus changed to a power-centric power company from a Bitcoin Mining company. As a result, the Company determined the value of the miners purchased have nominal value.

In September 2022, Agora renegotiated a settlement with one of its vendors, and provided them transformers (in mining technology equipment) valued at $1,425,772 in exchange for a credit against amounts owed to them of $855,000. This resulted in a loss on settlement of $570,772.

Depreciation expense for the three and nine months ended December 31, ~~2022~~2023 was $21,033 and ~~2021~~$59,273, respectively. On August 25, 2023, the Company sold 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Zest Labs, and all the assets and liabilities of Zest Labs were assumed by the Purchaser as discussed in note 1. The net amount of property and equipment recorded in the sale was ~~$62,338 and $143,321, respectively.~~ $0.

DECEMBEREffective September 30, 2023, the Company impaired $5,679,942 of gross fixed assets related to Agora and Bitstream that had $1,784,189 in accumulated depreciation. The $3,895,753 of net property and equipment remaining was impaired as the Company deemed the assets without value as they had been unable to commence mining operations, either for themselves or from others through hosting arrangements, and was not expected to. During the three months ended December 31, ~~2022~~

~~NOTE 9: POWER DEVELOPMENT COST~~2023, the Company determined certain Agora leased property was abandoned and therefore fully impaired the remaining lease right of use asset, which had a balance of $247,969.

On November 1, 2023, both Agora ~~has paid $1,000,000 each under two separate agreements~~and Bitstream filed petitions for two different land sites to a non-related third party for a total of $2,000,000 in connection with the commencement of Bitstream’s Bitcoin mining operations. The payments represent the fee for securing 48 MW and 30 MW, respectively of utility capacity as defined and agreed by ERCOT West Load ZoneChapter 7 bankruptcy in the ~~Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC (“Utility”) at~~United States Bankruptcy Court for the ~~“one-span” tariff rate classification~~Western District of “6.1.1.1.5 Primary greater than 10kw”. If the Utility is unable to deliver these terms as defined in the facilities extension agreement, the non-related third party is obligated to secure a new location for Bitstream with at least the stated capacity and same rate tariff. The non-related third party secured the 48 MW and 30 MW of available capacity by signing a distribution facilities extension agreement with the Utility and posting the required collateral.

~~The $2,000,000 was used to purchase this right to the distribution facilities extension agreement which gives Bitstream immediate access to the 78 MW electric capacity from the Utility.~~

Bitstream also reimbursed the utility deposits paid by the non-related third party in connection with these agreements in the amount of $96,000 and $326,500, respectively. The power development fees are deemed non-refundable unless the non-related third party cannot find a suitable location within 6 months. Bitstream and the non-related third party are still negotiating a definitive power agreement.

On August 10, 2022, the Company had $844,708 returned from one of the distribution facilities extension agreements, which is net of $155,292 of fees related to development costs paid to our power broker.Texas.

12. WARRANT DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

The Company issued common stock and warrants in several private placements and two public offerings (“Derivative Warrant Instruments”) and some of these warrants have been classified as liabilities. The Derivative Warrant Instruments have been accounted for utilizing ASC 815 ~~“Derivatives and Hedging.”~~ The Company has incurred a liability for the estimated fair value of Derivative Warrant Instruments. The estimated fair value of the Derivative Warrant Instruments has been calculated using the Black-Scholes fair value option-pricing model with key input variables provided by management, as of the date of issuance, with changes in fair value recorded as gains or losses on revaluation in other income (expense).

The Company identified embedded features in some of the warrant agreements which were classified as a liability. These embedded features included (a) the implicit right for the holders to request that the Company settle the warrants in registered shares. Since maintaining an effective registration of shares is potentially outside the control of the Company, these warrants were classified as liabilities as opposed to equity; (b) ~~included~~ the right for the holders to request that the Company cash settle the warrant instruments from the holder by paying to the holder an amount of cash equal to the Black-Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of the ~~Derivative Warrant Instruments~~derivative warrant instruments on the date of the consummation of a fundamental transaction; and (c) certain price protections in the agreements. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company treat the whole instrument as a liability and record the fair value of the instrument as derivatives as of the inception date of the instrument and to adjust the fair value of the instrument as of each subsequent balance sheet date.

Each share of Series D has a stated value of $25,000 per share. Each share of Series D is convertible into a number of shares of the ~~terms~~Company’s common stock determined by dividing the Stated Value by $0.51 (the “Conversion Price”). The Conversion Price is subject to adjustment in the event of ~~notes~~an issuance of common stock at a price per share lower than the Conversion Price then in effect, as well as upon customary stock splits, stock dividends, combinations or similar events. As the Conversion Price represents a premium to the closing price of the common stock on the date of execution of the Agreement, the conversion of the Series D is not subject to limitations on conversion.

RiskOn International Series A

The Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the ~~“Agreement”~~“Series A Agreement”) with Ault Lending ~~LLC (formerly Digital Power Lending, LLC), a California limited liability company (the “Purchaser”),~~on June 8, 2022, and as amended November 28, 2022, pursuant to which the Company sold ~~the Purchaser~~ Ault Lending 1,200 shares of Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (the ~~“Ecoark Series~~“Series A”), ~~102,881~~3,429 shares of common stock ~~(the “Commitment Shares”)~~ and a warrant to purchase shares of common stock (the “Warrant,” ~~and together with the Ecoark Series A and the Commitment Shares, the “Securities”~~) ~~for a total original purchase price of $12,000,000. The Purchaser is a subsidiary of Ault Alliance, Inc. [NYSE American: AULT]~~. The ~~Company determined that the classification of the Ecoark Series A~~Warrant was ~~Mezzanine Equity as the option to convert the shares belongs to the Purchaser. A description of the material transaction components are as follows:~~

~~Ecoark Series A~~cancelled on November 14, 2022.

~~Conversion Rights~~

~~Prior to the November 2022~~The amendment ~~described below, each share of Ecoark Series A had a stated value of $10,000 and were convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $2.10 per share, subject~~ to customary adjustment provisions. The holder’s conversion of the Ecoark Series A was subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 19.9% of the issued and outstanding common stock as of any conversion date of the Ecoark Series A, unless and until the Company obtains stockholder and The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) approval for the conversion of more than that amount, in order to comply with Nasdaq Rules. Stockholder approval was obtained on September 9, 2022. In addition, the conversion rights in general did not become effective until July 23, 2022, which is one day after the record date for the stockholders meeting seeking such stockholder approval at the September 9, 2022 meeting. The shares of Ecoark Series A as amended are also subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation, which may be increased to up to 9.9% by the holder by giving 61 days’ notice to the Company.

~~On November 28, 2022, the Company, following an agreement with the Purchaser, the Company amended~~ the Certificate of ~~Designations~~Designation of Rights, Preferences and Limitations (the “Certificate”) of the Ecoark Series A previously issued to the Purchaser to: (i) increase the stated value of the Ecoark Series A from $10,000 to $10,833.33; (ii) provide for the dividends payable under the Ecoark Series A to be payable in common stock rather than cash effective November 1, 2022, and (iii) reduce the conversion price of the Ecoark Series A from $2.10 to the lesser of (a) $1.00 or (b) the higher of (1) 80% of the 10-day daily volume weighted average price, or (2) $0.25. The amendment on November 28, 2022 constituted a modification to the classification of the Series A constituted a modification from mezzanine equity to ~~liability. The Company determined in accordance with ASC 470-50-40, that the amendment would be accounted for as~~liability and was considered a debt ~~modification as opposed to a debt extinguishment as~~modification. Upon the amendment did not meet the 10% threshold when comparing the present value of the remaining cash flows to the value to the original terms of the Series A. As a result of this modification, the Company recognized a debt modification expense of $879,368. Upon reclassification to preferred stock liability and analysis of terms, the Company ~~analyzed the terms and determined that~~deemed the preferred stock liability ~~was considered a derivative liability and measured the derivative liability at inception (November 28, 2022). This measurement resulted in a gain of $2,878,345.~~

~~As described in Note 15~~~~. “~~Commitments and Contingencies”, Nasdaq is alleging that the November 2022 amendment to the Series A violated its voting and stockholder approval requirements, and we expect it may do so with regard to the recent BitNile.com transaction, although the Company plans to seek stockholder approval for both transactions and make any modifications Nasdaq requires. See “Risk Factors” contained in this Report.

Changes to these inputs could produce a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The fair value of the preferred stock liability is estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The following assumptions were used on December 31, 2022, and at inception:

December 31, 2022 Inception

The Company entered into a share exchange agreement with AAI on ~~September 9, 2022, at~~February 8, 2023 and subsequently closed the transaction on March 7, 2023, in which the ~~stockholders~~Company acquired the assets and liabilities of BNC and securities of Earnity beneficially owned by BNC in exchange of the issuance of 8,637.5 shares of Series B preferred stock (“Series B”) and 1,362.5 shares of Series C preferred stock (“Series C”), both of which are convertible into common stock subject to the terms of their respective Certificate of Designation of Rights, Preference and Limitations (collectively, “Certificates”). Additionally, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Certificates, Series B and Series C holders are entitled to receive dividends in the form of additional shares or cash following the dividend payment set forth in the Certificates. As of December 31, 2023, there were 8,883.4 shares of Series B and 1,401.3 shares of Series C issued and outstanding. As of March 31, 2023, the Company ~~approved the following proposals:~~had 8,637.5 and 1,362.5 shares of Series B and Series C, respectively, issued and outstanding.

The Company determined that the Series B and Series C constituted a derivative liability under ASC 815 on the date of inception, March 7, 2023. As a result of this classification, the Company determined that the value of the derivative liability was $42,426,069 at inception.

Activity related to the preferred stock derivative liabilities for the Series B and Series C for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 was as follows:

Schedule of activity related to the preferred stock derivative liabilities
Beginning balance as of March 31, 2023	$	18,830,760
Change in fair value of preferred stock derivative liabilities		(18,642,362	)
Ending balance as of December 31, 2023	$	188,398

The Company has accrued $1,285,591 in dividend payable on the Series B and Series C as of December 31, 2023.

The fair value of the Series A, Series B and Series C liability is estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Changes to the inputs could produce a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The following assumptions were used on December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023:

On November 14, 2023, the Company entered into the SPA with AAI, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to AAI 603.44 shares of Series D for a total purchase price of $15,085,931. This transaction closed on November 15, 2023. The purchase price was paid by the cancellation of $15,085,931 of cash advances made by AAI to the Company between January 1, 2023 and November 9, 2023. Each share of Series D has a stated value of $25,000 per share. Each share of Series D is convertible into a number of shares of the Company’s common stock determined by dividing the Stated Value by the Conversion Price. The Conversion Price is subject to adjustment in the event of an issuance of common stock at a price per share lower than the Conversion Price then in effect, as well as upon customary stock splits, stock dividends, combinations or similar events. As the Conversion Price represents a premium to the closing price of the common stock on the date of execution of the Agreement, the conversion of the Series D is not subject to limitations on conversion.

As Series D is not mandatorily redeemable and has no embedded features requiring bifurcation, the Company determined that the Series D should be classified as equity in accordance with ASC 480 and ASC 815 as of November 14, 2023, the date of inception. As a result of this classification, the Company determined that the fair value of the Series D was $15,085,931 at inception.

The Company issued $192,765 in paid-in-kind dividends on the Series D during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023.

For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded $1,589,046 and $4,739,726, respectively, in dividend expense related to Series A, Series B and Series C. As of December 31, 2023, the Company has a total of $1,342,259 in accrued dividends.

Specifically, the Company amended the Certificate on November 28, 2022 to: (i) increase the stated value of the Series A from $10,000 to $10,833.33; (ii) provide for the dividends payable under the Series A to be payable in Common Stock rather than cash effective beginning November 1, 2022, and (iii) reduce the conversion price of the Series A from $2.10 to the lesser of (1) $1.00 and (2) the higher of (A) 80% of the 10-day daily volume weighted average price and (B) $0.25 (the “Amendment”). million.

According to the ~~letter,~~Shareholder Deficiency Letter, the Company was required to obtain stockholder approval to effect the Amendment because the Series A as amended provides for the potential issuance of 51,999,984 shares of Common Stock at less than the Minimum Price under Listing Rule 5635(d), and the Amendment also violates Listing Rule 5640 by providing the holder of the Series A with voting rights on an as-converted basis with the Series A convertible into Common Stock at a discount, thereby violating Listing Rule 5640.

~~In the letter, the Company was provided~~had 45 calendar days from the date of the ~~letter,~~Shareholder Deficiency Letter, or until ~~February 10,~~September 1, 2023, to submit a plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1).

Further, on December 30, 2022, the Company received another letter from the Nasdaq notifying the Company of its noncompliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) by failing to maintain a minimum bid price for its Common Stock of at least $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days and providing the Company with a 180 calendar day grace period to regain compliance with the Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), subject to a potential 180 calendar day extension, as described below. To regain compliance, the Company’s Common Stock must have a minimum closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for at least 10 consecutive business days within the grace period which ends on June 28, 2023. To qualify for the additional grace period, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for the market value of its publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second grace period, by effecting a reversecommon stock ~~split if necessary, which would also require stockholder approval unless completed with a proportionate reduction in our authorized Common Stock under our Articles of Incorporation.~~

On January 26, 2023, Nasdaq sent an email to the Company raising 13 questions concerning the White River transaction, White River’s business, seeking verification that the Company had in fact transferred $3 million to White River last July and questioning the time allocations of the two senior executive officers of the Company and White River, among other things.

The three-level hierarchy is defined as follows:

Level 2 – quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 – fair value measurements derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

~~Financial instruments consist principally~~The carrying values of cash, prepaid expenses, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, notes payable, and amounts due to related parties. The fair value of cash is determined based on Level 1 inputs. There were no transfers into or out of “Level 3” during the nine months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument.

On February 8, 2023, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “SEA”) by and among Ault Alliance, Inc. (“Ault”), the owner of approximately 86% of BitNile.com, Inc. (“BitNile.com”), and the minority stockholders of BitNile.com which contemplates the Company acquiring all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of BitNile.com in exchange for shares if newly designated preferred stock to have a combined stated value of $100,000,000, and subject to adjustment will be convertible into a total of up to 400,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, which represent approximately 92.4% of the Company outstanding Common Stock on a fully-diluted basis. BitNile.com’s principal business envisions operating a metaverse platform which is under development, and the beta for which is scheduled to launch in March 2023. However, no assurances can be provided that this transaction will close, including due to closing conditions such as the requirement that the Company obtain a fairness opinion from an independent national third party appraisal firm, as well as satisfactory due diligence by the parties.

~~In addition to the potential acquisition~~Consolidated Results of ~~BitNile.com as contemplated by the SEA, the Company’s goal is to spin-off all of the Wolf~~ ~~Energy~~ common stock and WTRV common stock to the Company’s stockholders in calendar year 2023, although because of regulatory delays or other reasons we may not meet that deadline. At the same time, we expect to acquire either BitNile.com under the SEA described above or another business so weContinuing Operations

~~Future Spin-Offs~~

As described in this Report, Ecoark’s goal is to spin-off its common stock of White River and Wolf Energy. While the Company previously planned on spinning off Zest Labs common stock in a similar fashion, the Company decided not to proceed with that spin-off. Due to market conditions, the Company decided it was inadvisable to seek to raise capital for Zest Labs which it needed to operate as a stand-alone public company. To protect the Company’s stockholders, it granted its stockholders of record as of September 30, 2022 the right to receive 95% of the net proceeds of the Zest Labs litigation with Walmart and Deloitte, which is describe under Note 15 to the financial statements contained in this Report. That right is part of the Zest Labs certificate of incorporation. Under the SEA, the BitNile.com stockholders agreed that they will not participate in any of these distributions if the transaction closes.

Following the above transactions, the Company’s only remaining subsidiaries are Agora, which ceased mining Bitcoin but is now exploring operating as a hosting company for Bitcoin mining ventures, and Zest Labs which holds technology and related intellectual property rights for fresh food solutions, and is not operating due to ongoing litigation involving its technology an intellectual property.

~~Segment Reporting for the Nine and Three Months Ended December 31, 2022:~~

As a result of the sales of White River and Banner Midstream, and the immaterial nature of the operations of Zest Labs, the Company no longer segregates its operations as most of the continuing operations are related to Agora.

~~Key Trends~~

~~Impact of Inflation~~

In 2022, there has been a sharp rise in inflation in the U.S. and globally. Given our limited operations, the most significant future impact will be on employee salaries and benefits and electricity costs.

~~Impact of COVID-19~~

~~COVID-19 may continue to affect the economy and our business, depending on the vaccine rollouts and the emergence of virus mutations as well as the impact of supply chain disruptions.~~

~~COVID-19 did not have a material effect on the~~ Consolidated ~~Statements of Operations or the Consolidated Balance Sheets for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2022 included in this Report.~~

COVID-19 has been a contributing factor in supply and labor shortages which have been pervasive in many industries. The extent to which a future COVID-19 outbreak and other adverse developments may impact the Company’s results will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

Revenue and Gross Loss

Revenue and gross loss during the three months ended December 31, 2023 were $0.2 million and $2.0 million, respectively. The revenue and increased cost of revenue was attributable to the RiskOn360 conference held during the period. We did not have revenue or cost of sales during the three months ended December 31, 2022.

Operating Loss and Operating Expenses

During the three months ended December 31, 2023, our operating loss increased by $9 million, from $1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was due to increases in advertising expenses, gross loss, salary expense and platform fees of approximately $5 million, $2 million, $1 million and $1 million, respectively.

~~The discussion of our results of~~Loss from Continuing Operations

Loss from continuing operations ~~should be evaluated considering that our primary subsidiaries were sold in~~for the three months ended December 31, 2023 was $15 million compared to income from continuing operations for the three months ended December 31, 2022 ~~and their results~~ of ~~operations are now treated as discontinued operations.~~

$5 million. The Company had no revenue in the three months ended December 31, 2022 (“Q3 2023”) and had $17,455 in 2021 (“Q3 2022”) as it had just recently commenced Bitcoin mining operations. Agora has recently focused on becoming a hosting company as reflected below. To that end, Agora entered into the MSA with Ault described above, whereby Agora agreed to host Ault’s cryptocurrency mining equipment at Agora’s West Texas location and supply the electricity for the cryptocurrency mining.

~~The Company’s Bitcoin operations began in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 and ceased on March 3, 2022 due to the low price~~increase of Bitcoin and the inability of Agora to timely complete its initial public offering which created a working capital issue. The Company intends to refocus Agora to operating as a hosting company providing infrastructure and energy to cryptocurrency mining enterprises assuming the Company can raise the necessary capital. Unless and until we are successful in generating revenue for Agora or acquire another operating

~~Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit~~

~~Cost of revenues for Q3 2023 was $47,460 as compared to $92,823 for Q3 2022. We expect cost of revenues to increase once we have commenced Agora’s hosting operations.~~

~~Operating Expenses~~

Total operating expenses were $3,005,922 for Q3 2023 compared to $4,692,895 for Q3 2022. The decrease between periods were primarily related to a decrease in salaries and salaries related costs to $1,280,078 in Q3 2023 from $3,159,979 in Q3 2022 primarily due to higher stock-based compensation in Q3 2022 compared to Q3 2023.

~~Other Income (Expense)~~

Total other income was $5,948,563 in Q3 2023, compared to total other income of $10,982,731 in Q3 2022, almost all of which was non-cash. Change in fair value of derivative liabilities for Q3 2023 was a non-cash gain of $1,381,711 related to the changes in our stock price, a change in the fair value of the preferred stock derivative liability for Q3 2023 of $1,864,777, a gain of $2,878,345 related to the preferred stock derivative liability at inception, and interest expense, net of ($172,347). Change in fair value of derivative liabilities for Q3 2022 was a non-cash gain of $10,979,137 related to the changes in our stock price.

~~Net Income from Continuing Operations~~

~~Net income from continuing operations for Q3 2023 was $2,895,181 as compared to net income from continuing operations of $6,214,468 for Q3 2022. The decrease~~approximately $19 million was primarily due to the ~~decrease in~~increase of our operating ~~expenses as noted above offset by~~loss of approximately $9 million coupled with the ~~change in~~decreased gain on the remeasurement of fair value offor the derivative ~~liability~~liabilities of approximately $5 million, increased amortization of original issuance and ~~the change in the~~derivative discounts expense of $2 million, loss on redemption of Series A preferred stock ~~derivative liability~~ ~~arising from the decrease in the Company’s Common Stock price.~~

Revenue and Gross Loss

Revenue and gross loss during the nine months ended December 31, 2023 were $0.3 million and $2.2 million, respectively. The revenue and increased cost of revenue was attributable to the RiskOn360 conference held during the period as well as sales of Hospitality services. We did not have revenue or cost of sales during the nine months ended December 31, 2022.

Operating Loss and Operating Expenses

During the nine months ended December 31, 2023, our operating loss increased by $25 million, from $4 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The ~~Company had no revenue~~increase was primarily due to increases in sponsorship and advertising expenses, platform fees, cost of sales and travel expenses of approximately $18 million, $3 million, $2 million, $2 million, respectively.

Loss from Continuing Operations

Loss from continuing operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 was $16 million compared to income from continuing operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2022 ~~(“9M 2023”) and $17,455 in the nine months ended December 31, 2021 related~~of $5 million. The increase of $21 million was due to the ~~Bitcoin mining operation (“9M 2022”).

~~Cost~~redemption of ~~Revenues and Gross Profit~~

~~Cost of revenues for 9M 2023 was $229,534 as compared to $92,823 for 9M 2022. We expect cost of revenues to increase once we have commenced Agora’s hosting operations.~~

~~Operating Expenses~~

Total operating expenses were $17,909,843 for 9M 2023 compared to $10,775,053 for 9M 2022. The increase between periods were primarily related to an increase in salaries and salaries related costs to $10,998,108 in 9M 2023 from $5,504,833 in 9M 2022 arising from the stock-based compensation of $9,370,769 in 9M 2023 versus $3,786,342 in 9M 2022, and to a lesser extent an $1,655,969 increase related to the impairment of the miners that Agora had purchased as it has moved to a hosting model from a mining model for Bitcoin.

~~Other Income (Expense)~~

Total other income was $7,951,535 in 9M 2023, compared to total other income of $14,741,253 in 9M 2022.

Change in fair value of derivative liabilities for 9M 2022 was a non-cash gain of $15,294,814, partially offset by interest expense, net of interest income of $(553,561).

~~Net Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations~~

Net loss from continuing operations for 9M 2023 was ($10,187,842) as compared to net income from continuing operations of $3,890,832 for 9M 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to increases in salaries and salaries related costs and our 9M 2023 impairment charge,$4 million, partially offset by the increased gain on the change in ~~the~~ fair value of the derivative liabilities of approximately $15 million.

Business Segment Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended December 31, 2023 and 2022

As discussed in note 20, we changed the presentation of our segment operating results in the quarter ended December 31, 2023, and all amounts are presented under the new reporting segment structure. We have two reporting segments: the BitNile.com Metaverse & Hospitality segment and the ~~change~~RiskOn360 segment. Both were acquired in March 2023 as a part of the ~~preferred stock liability.~~

SEA agreement with AAI. GuyCare was formed and launched in November 2023 and had nominal operations during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, and is therefore considered an immaterial operating segment. We had no operations relating to Metaverse & Hospitality or RiskOn360 during the three months ended December 31, 2022.

The financial information as of and for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022 in the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relates to Ecoark Holdings (later renamed BitNile Metaverse and currently named RiskOn International), a holding company, and the discontinued operations of Wolf Energy, Agora and Zest. The results of operations from Agora and Zest are included in discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023.

As there is no meaningful financial information relating to our new segments compared to prior period segments, management has no additional discussion and comparative analysis to disclose. The significant activities and transactions of both periods are discussed in the notes to the financial statements and in the discussion and analysis of the consolidated results of continuing operations above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. Significant factors in the management of liquidity are revenue generated from operations, levels of accounts receivable, ~~and~~ accounts payable and capital expenditures.

Net cash used in operating activities ~~for~~of continuing operations was ~~$(12,385,949)~~approximately $29 million for 9Mthe nine months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to ~~$(8,414,833) for 9M 2022.

Significant changes impacting net cash used in operating activities ~~for 9M~~during the nine months ended December 31, 2023 ~~was~~as compared to nine months ended December 31, 2022 were primarily ~~caused by~~due to (i) a $7 million reduction in loss from continuing operations, (ii) change in the ~~net loss offset by increases~~fair value of derivative liabilities of approximately $18 million during the nine months ended December 31, compared to $6 million in ~~common shares issued for services, and losses~~the prior year period, (iii) gain on disposal of ~~former~~Zest of approximately $1 million compared to a loss of $13 million on the disposal of previous subsidiaries ~~without similar amounts~~ in ~~9M 2022 as well as~~the prior year period, and (iv) increased changes in accounts payable of $7 million, dividends payable of $5 million and ~~accrued expenses from 9M 2022 to 9M 2023.~~amortization of discount of $4 million.

As of ~~February 14,~~December 31, 2023, ~~the Company has $31,294~~we had $101,487 in cash and cash equivalents. ~~The Company believes~~We believe that the current cash on hand is not sufficient to conduct planned operations for one year from the issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and ~~needs to raise capital to support their operations.~~

~~To date~~ we have financed our operations through sales of common stock, convertible preferred stock and other derivative securities and the issuance of debt. We may also issue common stock, preferred stock or other securities in connection with any business acquisition we undertake in the future following our planned spin-offs. Presently we may not raise capital without the consent of the Purchaser.

On January 24, 2023, the Company entered an ATM Agreement with Ascendiant as sales agent, which contemplates sales of shares of our common stock in a registered “at-the-market” offering for offering proceeds of up to $3,500,000. As of the date of this Report, the Company has sold 1,425,928 shares for total gross proceeds of $475,623, at an average price of $0.333 per share.

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company sold its interests in Banner Midstream in two separate transactions on July 25, 2022 and September 7, 2022. In addition, it sold the non-core business of Trend Discovery on June 17, 2022. The Company expects to distribute the common stock it received (or issuable upon conversion of preferred stock) in the sales to its stockholders upon the effective registration statements for the two entities the companies were sold to. See Note 13, “Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock” for information on the Company’s recent $12 million convertible preferred stock financing. That financing has restrictive covenants that require approval of the investor for the Company to engage in any equity or debt financing. The Company believes that the current cash on hand is not sufficient to conduct planned operations for 12 months from the issuance of the consolidated financial statements and may need to raise capital to support ~~their operations. While the Company entered into the MSA with Ault~~our operations, raising substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We acquired BitNile.com in March 2023, which ~~if the hosting arrangement is established would provide a source of~~has generated nominal revenue as of ~~the date of this Report the Company has not yet met its obligations under the MSA, including raising at least $5,000,000 to establish the initial infrastructure and power for the hosting arrangement~~. Further, if we acquire BitNile.com as contemplated by the SEA, we expect to require substantial additional capital to further develop its metaverse platform and launch revenue-generating operations therefrom, and no assurance can be given that we will be able to close that acquisition or that if we are we will be able to leverage the BitNile.com business as needed to generate material revenue or raise the necessary capital. See “Risk Factors” included in this Report.

December 31, 2023. The accompanying financial statements for the ~~period~~three and nine month periods ended December 31, ~~2022~~2023 have been prepared assuming ~~the Company~~we will continue as a going concern, but ~~the~~our ability ~~of the Company~~ to continue as a going concern is dependent on ~~the Company~~our obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until ~~it establishes~~we establish continued revenue streams and ~~becomes~~become profitable. Management’s plans to continue as a going concern include raising additional capital through sales of equity securities and borrowing. However, management cannot provide any assurances that ~~the Company~~we will be successful in accomplishing any of ~~its~~our plans. If ~~the Company is not able~~we are unable to obtain the necessary additional financing on a timely basis, ~~the Company~~we will be required to delay, reduce or perhaps even cease the operation of ~~its~~our business. As discussed in note 2, “Liquidity and Going Concern” above, during the current fiscal year, we received $5 million in proceeds from the sale of senior secured convertible notes in April 2023, $1 million from the issuance of term notes in October and December 2023, and as of December 31, 2023, we have raised $1 million from the sale of common stock related to the ELOC purchase agreement. The ~~ability of~~proceeds received have gone towards working capital until we can generate the ~~Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully secure other sources of financing and attain profitable~~necessary funds from our operations.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if ~~the Company is~~we are unable to continue as a going concern.

~~Agora Line of Credit~~

~~As of February 14,~~ See “Risk Factors” included in our 2023 the Company has advanced a total of $5,692,463 to Agora under a $7.5 million term line of credit note issued to the Company by Agora which bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum. Agora will be required to repay any sums we lend it on March 31, 2023 with accrued interest.

~~2018 Line of Credit~~

On December 28, 2018, the Company entered into a $10,000,000 credit facility that includes a loan and security agreement (the “Agreement”) where the lender agreed to make one or more loans to the Company, and the Company may make a request for a loan or loans from the lender, subject to the terms and conditions. In the nine months ended December 31, 2022, the Company borrowed $505,181, which includes $17,681 in commitment fees,Annual Report filed with the ~~balance of $487,500 being deposited directly into the Company,~~Securities and repaid $810,000 in the nine months ended December 31, 2022.

This Report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements regarding closing the SEA with Ault, the potential terms, timing and success of the planned spin-offs by us to our security holders of White River’s and Wolf Energy’s common stock, our ability to raise capital, our plans to maintain our Nasdaq listing, the expected changes to Agora’s business, our expectations with respect to future developments in our ongoing litigation, and our liquidity. All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” including: any projections of earnings, revenues or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning proposed new products, services or developments; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; any statements of belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. The words “believe,” “may,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “should,” “plan,” “could,” “target,” “potential,” “is likely,” “will,” “expect” and similar expressions, as they relate to us, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs.

The results anticipated by any or all of these forward-looking statements might not occur. Important factors, uncertainties and risks that may cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements include possibility that the acquisition of BitNile.com contemplated by the SEA does not close including possibly due to closing conditions that are beyond either party’s control, the failure to obtain a favorable fairness opinion, the risks and uncertainties surrounding the anticipated launch of the BitNile.com platform, the acceptance of such platform by consumers, advertisers and others, the ability toA complete ~~and timelines~~discussion of our ~~planned spin-offs and any regulatory, registration or other delays or obstacles including the potential for the Depository Trust Company to require a change~~critical accounting estimates is included in ~~the record date, risks and uncertainties relating to undisclosed liabilities or the integration if the acquisition of BitNile.com closes, risks and uncertainties due to factors beyond~~ our control, our ability to refocus Agora into a hosting company, challenges in securing our maintaining relationships with customers operating cryptocurrency mining businesses and vendors, the future price of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies if we host any mining for them, our failure to meet Nasdaq continued listing requirements, the inability to obtain stockholder approval of (i) the acquisition ofBitNile.com and the issuance of more than 19.9% of our common stock to Ault, and (ii) the November 2022 amendments to our Series A, the impact of future strains of COVID-19, the Russian invasion of the Ukraine, inflation and Federal Reserve interest rate increases in response thereto on the economy including the potential for a recession which may result, supply chain shortages, any issues which could result in unfavorable outcomes of one or both of our ongoing Zest Labs lawsuits, the outcome of the lawsuits against Agora, and the availability of capital on acceptable terms when needed or at all including all risks relating to the capital markets in general and small public companies in particular. Further information on the risks and uncertainties affecting our business is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the ~~fiscal~~ year ended March 31, ~~2022 under Part I. Item 1A. – Risk Factors. We undertake~~2023. There have been no ~~obligation~~material changes to ~~publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as the result of new information, future events or otherwise.~~

~~Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Assumptions~~

~~The~~our critical accounting policies ~~listed below are~~and estimates as compared to those ~~the Company deems most important~~disclosed in our Form 10-K. For a description of our critical accounting policies and estimates, see Part I, Item 1, note 3, "Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies" in our notes to ~~its operations.~~

~~Use of Estimates~~

~~The preparation of~~the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates include, but are not limited to, management’s estimate of provisions required for uncollectible accounts receivable, fair value of assets held for sale and assets and liabilities acquired, impaired value of equipment and intangible assets, including goodwill, asset retirement obligations, estimates of discount rates in lease, liabilities to accrue, fair value of derivative liabilities associated with warrants, cost incurred in the satisfaction of performance obligations, permanent and temporary differences related to income taxes and determination of the fair value of stock awards.this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

~~Actual results could differ from those estimates.~~

~~Revenue Recognition~~

●

~~Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer~~

●

~~Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract~~

●

~~Step 3: Determine the transaction price~~

●

~~Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract~~

●

~~Step 5: Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation~~

~~If a good or service is not distinct, the good or service is combined with other promised goods or services until a bundle of goods or services is identified that is distinct.~~

●

~~Variable consideration~~

●

~~Constraining estimates of variable consideration~~

●

~~The existence of a significant financing component in the contract~~

●

~~Noncash consideration~~

●

~~Consideration payable to a customer~~

The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis. The standalone selling price is the price at which the Company would sell a promised service separately to a customer. The relative selling price for each performance obligation is estimated using observable objective evidence if it is available. If observable objective evidence is not available, the Company uses its best estimate of the selling price for the promised service. In instances where the Company does not sell a service separately, establishing standalone selling price requires significant judgment. The Company estimates the standalone selling price by considering available information, prioritizing observable inputs such as historical sales, internally approved pricing guidelines and objectives, and the underlying cost of delivering the performance obligation. The transaction price allocated to each performance obligation is recognized when that performance obligation is satisfied, at a point in time or over time as appropriate.

Management judgment is required when determining the following: when variable consideration is no longer probable of significant reversal (and hence can be included in revenue); whether certain revenue should be presented gross or net of certain related costs; when a promised service transfers to the customer; and the applicable method of measuring progress for services transferred to the customer over time. Although, Agora since March 3, 2022, has not recognized revenue from its mining operations, prior to this time, it recognized revenue upon satisfaction of its performance obligation over time in accordance with ASC 606-10-25-27 for its contracts with mining pool operators.

~~Hosting Revenues~~

Agora effective in September 2022 began efforts to generate revenue via hosting agreements. Agora entered into a MSA on December 7, 2022 with Ault, whereby Ault agreed to provide mining equipment which Agora would host at its West Texas location and supply the electricity for the cryptocurrency mining.

~~When Agora generates hosting revenues, it will follow ASC 606 as outlined above and recognize revenue upon the completion of the performance obligations as stipulated under the MSA.~~

~~Fair Value Measurements~~

~~ASC 820~~ ~~Fair Value Measurements~~ defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. ASC 820 classifies these inputs into the following hierarchy:

~~Level 1 inputs: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.~~

~~Level 3 inputs: Instruments with primarily unobservable value drivers.~~

The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments such as cash, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of those financial instruments.

~~Derivative Financial Instruments~~

The Company does not currently use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks, but may explore hedging oil prices in the current fiscal year. Management evaluates all of the Company’s financial instruments, including warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. The Company generally uses a Black-Scholes model, as applicable, to value the derivative instruments at inception and subsequent valuation dates when needed. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is remeasured at the end of each reporting period. The Black-Scholes model is used to estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

See Part I, Item 1, note 3, "Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies" in our notes to the consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for recently adopted accounting pronouncements as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

~~In August 2020,~~Our management has considered all recent accounting pronouncements issued since the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contractslast audit of our financial statements. Our management believes that these recent pronouncements, other than those discussed in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contract’s in an Entity’s Own Equity. The ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instrumentsnote 3, will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The ASU 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. The ASU simplifies the diluted net income per share calculation in certain areas.

The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2021, and early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not ~~believe this new guidance will~~ have a ~~material impact~~significant effect on ~~its consolidated~~our financial statements.

In May 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued 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” which clarifies and reduces diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. An entity should measure the effect of a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange as follows: i) for a modification or an exchange that is a part of or directly related to a modification or an exchange of an existing debt instrument or line-of-credit or revolving-debt arrangements (hereinafter, referred to as a “debt” or “debt instrument”), as the difference between the fair value of the modified or exchanged written call option and the fair value of that written call option immediately before it is modified or exchanged; ii) for all other modifications or exchanges, as the excess, if any, of the fair value of the modified or exchanged written call option over the fair value of that written call option immediately before it is modified or exchanged. The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity should apply the amendments prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. The Company does not believe this new guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

~~The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.~~

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

~~Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officers, has evaluated the effectiveness of our~~We have established disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive and financial officers have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

~~Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are~~ designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the ~~Company~~ reports ~~filed~~that we file or ~~submitted~~submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in ~~the SEC’s~~SEC rules and ~~forms. Disclosure controls~~forms and ~~procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Company reports filed under the Exchange Act~~ is accumulated and communicated to management, including the ~~Company’s Chief Executive Officer~~principal executive officer and ~~Principal Financial Officer (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer), as appropriate,~~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 weaknesses previously identified and disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2023, the end of its most recent fiscal year.

Management has identified the following material weaknesses:

The Company does not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions;

Lack of formal review procedures including multiple level of review over accounting financial reporting process due to the small size of its accounting staff;

The Company does not have sufficient written documentation of internal control policies and procedures; and

The Company’s financial reporting is carried out with the assistance of an outside financial consultant.

Planned Remediation

Management has taken and is taking steps to rectify these weaknesses through (i) hiring qualified accounting, financial reporting and key management personnel with public experience, (ii) engaging external advisors to assist in documenting, designing and implementing internal controls to ensure proper communication of critical information, review and approvals, and (iii) enhancing policies, procedures, and documentation for significant areas of accounting,

including each area where a material weakness was identified. Management has an increased focus and commitment in its efforts to remediate the identified material weaknesses.

Additionally, 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:

Accounts Receivable. We intend on enhancing the design of existing controls and implementing new controls over the processing and review of accounts receivable billings. We plan to supplement our accounting staff with more experienced personnel. We will also evaluate information system capabilities in order to reduce the manual calculations within this business process.

Complex Financial Instruments. We will design and implement controls to properly identify and implement the proper accounting treatment and classifications of our complex financial instruments to ensure our equity accounting and treatment is in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We intend to accomplish this by implementing more thorough reviews of certain details regarding all rights, penalties, record holders and negative covenants of the financial instruments in order to apply the correct accounting guidance (liabilities vs. equity vs. temporary equity).

Fair value estimates. We will design and implement additional control activities to ensure controls related to fair value estimates (including controls that validate the reasonableness, completeness and accuracy of information, data and assumptions), are properly designed, implemented and documented.

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 condensed 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 ~~Control~~Controls Over Financial Reporting

~~There~~Except as detailed above, during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2023, there were no ~~material~~significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting ~~that occurred during~~(as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the ~~fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2022~~Exchange Act) that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

~~Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures~~

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

~~Other than discussed below, during~~During the period covered by this report, there were no material developments in the legal proceedings disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, ~~2022.~~2023.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

~~Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Investors should review~~There are no updates or changes to the risk factors ~~described~~set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, ~~2022. In addition, investors should consider~~2023, as supplemented by the risk factors ~~described below.~~

~~Although we reported net income~~set forth in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the ~~three months ended December 31, 2022, such results are unrelated to our actual performance.~~

~~During the third~~ quarter ended December 31, 2022, we reported net operating income from continuing operations of $2,895,181. Investors should consider that the income arose from GAAP which provides that our derivative liabilities operate inversely to our stock price. If our stock price in a given quarter goes down, we recognize non-cash income. Conversely if our stock price goes up, we report a non-cash loss.June 30, 2023.

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, and if we are unable to close the acquisition of BitNile.com or raise sufficient capital to launch cryptocurrency mining hosting operations through Agora, we may be forced to cease operations.

As disclosed under “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” we do not have sufficient capital to fund our operations for the next 12 months, and there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. As disclosed elsewhere, on February 8, 2023 we entered into the SEA contemplating our acquisition of BitNile.com, the result of which would be BitNile.com becoming our wholly-owned subsidiary and us operating a development stage metaverse platform through BitNile.com. However, the acquisition may not close due to reasons beyond our control, including a closing condition that we acquire a fairness opinion, and that each party complete satisfactory due diligence. Further, if we are delisted from Nasdaq, which may result from inquiries which are currently pending as more particularly described in this Report, the stockholders of BitNile.com, particularly Ault, may determine not to proceed with the transaction, as one of the principal benefits envisioned by the SEA for BitNile.com is for the BitNile.com business to operate autonomously under the corporate umbrella of a Nasdaq-issuer, and be able to have access to capital thereby.

If we acquire BitNile.com, we anticipate requiring substantial additional capital to fund its operations, particularly given its metaverse platform is still under development, with its beta test scheduled to launch in March 2023. Further, if the acquisition of BitNile.com contemplated by the SEA does not close and in any event, we will need to raise at least $5,000,000 in order to fully launch our planned cryptocurrency mining hosting business through Agora under the MSA with an affiliate Ault and may require additional capital beyond the initial $5,000,000 to expand that business. In order to raise the capital required, we may need to issue common stock or common stock equivalents which will dilute our current stockholders, and/or debt securities which could subject us to negative covenants that hinder our ability to manage our business and take certain corporate actions as intended or at all. If we fail to proceed with the above-described transactions and/or raise sufficient capital to fund our planned operations as and when needed, we could be forced to cease operations, in which case you could lose some or all of your investment in us.

Nasdaq has recently provided us with correspondence containing violation notices and questions arising from certain of our prior transactions, the result of which could be our common stock being delisted from Nasdaq.

As disclosed elsewhere in this Report under “Note 15: Commitments And Contingencies – Nasdaq Compliance,” in December 2022 the Company was notified by Nasdaq of alleged violations of the Nasdaq Listing Rules in connection with an amendment to the Series A that was effected in November 2022. Specifically, the notice alleges that by reducing the conversion price of the Series A and entitling the holder to vote with the common stock on an as-converted basis, the Company violated Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) by issuing over 20% of the outstanding common stock without first obtaining stockholder approval, and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5640 by providing the holder of the Series A with disproportionate voting rights relative to the holders of common stock. While the Company submitted its initial response to Nasdaq including a plan of remediation, we cannot predict how Nasdaq will respond, including whether it will deem our responses and plan of remediation to be acceptable to remain compliant with the Nasdaq Listing Rules and maintain compliance therewith and listing on Nasdaq. Additionally, Nasdaq also sent two separate rounds of correspondence in December 2022 and January 2023 containing inquiries regarding the Company’s July 25, 2022 divestment of White River Holdings to White River Energy Corp, including questions focused on whether the transaction was appropriately valued and whether any conflicts of interest or other issues are present given that Jay Puchir and Randy May are on the management teams of both the Company and White River Energy Corp. Finally, in December 2022 the Company also received a notice of deficiency with Nasdaq Rules because the closing price of our common stock was below $1.00 for 30 consecutive trading days, and unless our stock price goes above the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for 10 consecutive trading days on its own, we will need to effect a reverse stock split or take other action to remediate this deficiency. In addition to all of these matters, Nasdaq may take the position that the acquisition of BitNile.com not only requires stockholder approval to issue more than 19.9% of our common stock to Ault and the minority stockholders of BitNile.com but also that the super voting rights violate Nasdaq Rules. We cannot assure you that Nasdaq will permit us to have our common stock to remain listed.

Any of the foregoing matters could result in our common stock being delisted from Nasdaq. If our common stock is delisted from Nasdaq, we could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

●

~~Ault may decide not to proceed with the BitNile.com transaction under the SEA, in which case we will not realize the anticipated benefits of that transaction;~~

●

We could face greater difficulty raising capital as and when need, on favorable terms, or at all, and could be forced to enter into more dilutive or onerous financing transactions given the relative lack of liquidity following a delisting;

●

~~We could also face challenges in locating and obtaining a viable replacement acquisition target if the BitNile.com transaction does not close;~~

●

~~There could be a limited availability of market quotations for our common stock and reduced liquidity with respect to our common stock;~~

●

Our shares of common stock could become a “penny stock” which will require broker-dealers trading in our common stock to adhere to more stringent rules, possibly resulting in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our common stock; and

●

~~There will be a limited amount of news and analyst coverage for our Company.~~

If we are unable to rectify any of the above-described Nasdaq issues, including potentially for failure to timely obtain stockholder approval, delisting will subject us and our stockholders to the above and other adverse consequences, and could also delay or prevent us from acquiring BitNile.com or effecting the announced spin-offs of common stock of certain entities as described elsewhere in this Report.
