Alpine 4 Holdings Announces Q2 2022 Financial Results with Revenue of $50.9 Million For the First Half of 2022

PHOENIX, AZ / ACCESSWIRE / August 12, 2022 / Alpine 4 Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:ALPP), a leading operator and owner of small market businesses announced today its Q2 2022 results and highlights.

Six months ended June 30, 2022, Consolidated Results and Highlights

  • Consolidated revenues of $50.9 million, up 126% over Q2 2021
  • By the end of Q2 2022 the company had proforma revenue for 2022 in excess of $100 million
  • Shareholder Equity of $70.6 million up from $47.0 million in Q2 2021
  • Total assets of $135.2 million up from $94.0 million in Q2 2021
  • Total working capital increased to $15.6 million in Q2 2022 from $8.8 million in Q2 2021.
  • Increased total inventory to $25.7 million up from $7.8 million in Q2 2021

Kent Wilson CEO had this to said, " Even though current market conditions do not necessarily represent the success Alpine 4 is currently having, the Company is presently on the cusp of various breakthroughs subsidiary wide that will propel the Company into the future. Breakthroughs in our new AX-03 battery cells, our solid-state battery powered drones US-2 and G1, and in our electronics manufacturing will bring meaningful financial results to Alpine 4 in the coming years. In Q2, Elecjet, Inc. (Elecjet) and Quality Circuit Assembly, Inc (QCA) began working with our equipment suppliers to help facilitate our proto-type solid-state battery line that will be located in QCA's new production facility in Silicon Valley, California. RCA Commercial Electronics (RCA) and Elecjet developed the POWERABLE brand of solid-state battery products, which is already garnering interest from large potential customers. The team from Vayu Aerospace Corporation (Vayu) has now completed the first block of ten G1 airframes. These airframes are ready for customization, and the Vayu team is currently reviewing several use cases with customers on how the G1 platform can work within their business model. These use cases range from military surveillance to law enforcement to the energy industry. Finally, Identified Technologies (IT) has deployed the ability to process large swaths of data in under two hours from its 3-D mapping technology. This is a reduction of almost 46 hours off of the prior iteration of their software and enables IT to have a significant competitive advantage over its closest 3-D Mapping rivals.

For Q2 2022, the Alpine 4 group of companies also continued our process improvement strategy to grow our profit margins, accelerate our sales order processes, and build free cash flow in several key sectors, including Construction Services, Manufacturing, and Technologies. The culmination of this effort resulted in several advancements in how Alpine 4 and subsidiaries perform our work in a constrained supply chain environment. Alternative Laboratories (Alt Labs) continues down their optimization path to accelerate their production capabilities with new equipment such as a $1 million gummy line for tier one clientele. Further, it has also gone through a production floor enhancement process to streamline operations as it prepares to add new types of customers. The result of these enhancements for Alt Labs is that they will bring more consistency in their margins and efficiency in the products they produce. While it doesn't show in our latest 10Q, Morris Sheet Metal (MSM) for June 2022, had its first net profitable month since January 2021. Margins continue to increase as Tom Laubhan, President of MSM, and his team have done an excellent job navigating a very difficult steel market for the past 18 months. We expect MSM to return to consistent profitability in Q4 2022. Excel Fabrication (Excel) came out of a six-month planning session led by Ed Fager, President of Excel Fabrication, and the Alpine 4 team led by Jeff Hail, our COO. This team's primary goal was to revamp our construction services and fabrication capabilities to attract more green technologies into the market. As of the writing of this letter, Excel has led high-level discussions with Elecjet and several US-based industrial companies, including Nucor Corporation, an NYSE traded American steel producer, for the use of Elecjet's battery technology in Nucor supplied construction projects. Finally, Thermal Dynamics International continues to reap the benefits of strong demand from its international customer base and the U.S. Government with rising margins resulting from the efficiencies they have created in their work processes.

As you can see, we have many wonderful and exciting things going on at Alpine 4, and our future has never been brighter. Thank you to all of you for your continued support!

Best regards,

Kent B. Wilson

President/CEO/Founder"

Quality Circuit Assembly had an organic revenue growth of $1.1 million which was an increase of 14.0% over the six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was primarily driven by increased demand from our EV customers. The acquisition of Alternative Laboratories in May 2021 attributed to non-organic revenue growth of $3.7 million. The decline in organic margin was a function of supply chain constraints primarily within Alternative Laboratories and the Company expects margins to increase starting in Q4 2022.
