BUSINESS Overview PART I Enservco Corporation ("Enservco") through its wholly owned subsidiary (collectively referred to as the "Company," "we" or "us") provides various services to the domestic onshore oil and natural gas industry. These services include hot oiling and acidizing ("Production Services") and frac water heating ("Completion and Other Services"). We own and operate a fleet of specialized trucks, trailers, frac tanks and other well-site related equipment and serve customers in several major domestic oil and gas producing areas, including the Denver-Julesburg Basin ("DJ Basin")/Niobrara area in Colorado and Wyoming, the San Juan Basin in northwestern New Mexico, the Marcellus and Utica Shale areas in Pennsylvania and Ohio, the Jonah area, Green River and Powder River Basins in Wyoming, and the Eagle Ford Shale and East Texas Oilfield in Texas. The Company’s corporate offices are located at 14133 County Road 9 1/2, Longmont, CO 80504. Our telephone number is (303) 333-3678. Our website is www.enservco.com. Recent Developments On February 22, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the investors in a best-efforts public offering (the “February 2023 Public Offering”) (i) 3,900,000 shares of Company common stock, (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,100,000 shares of Company common stock and (iii) common warrants to purchase 7,000,000 shares of Company common stock. The common warrants are exercisable at a price of $0.55 per share, and have a five year term. The net proceeds from the February 2023 Public Offering were $3.2 million, after deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company used the net proceeds for general corporate purposes including working capital, general and administrative expenses, and repayment of outstanding indebtedness. On March 28, 2023, Cross River Partners, LP (“Cross River”), which is an entity controlled by Richard Murphy, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, converted approximately $1.1 million principal amount of the March 2022 Convertible Note into 2,275,000 shares of Company common stock. On June 30, 2023, Cross River: 1) converted the remaining $148,950 principal balance of the March 2022 Convertible Note into 322,402 shares of Company common stock; 2) converted the entire $1,200,000 principal balance of the July 2022 Convertible Note into 2,400,000 shares of Company common stock; and 3) received a five-year warrant to acquire 2,400,000 shares of Company common stock with an exercise price of $0.55 per share. On September 1, 2023, the Company issued a convertible promissory note in the amount of $750,000 to Cross River and a convertible promissory note in the amount of $50,000 to Kevin Chesser (“Chesser”), a director of the Company. On September 11, 2023, pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement (the "Note Purchase Agreement"), Cross River and Chesser exchanged the previously issued September 1, 2023 convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amounts of $750,000 and $50,000, respectively, for new convertible promissory notes (the “September and October 2023 Convertible Notes”) with the same principal amounts. On the same date, pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company also issued September 2023 convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $125,000 to Angel Capital Partners, LP ("Angel Capital"), and in aggregate principal amount of $187,500 to Equigen, II, LLC ("Equigen"), an entity owned by Steven A. Weyel, a director of the Company. The September and October 2023 Convertible Notes have an eighteen-month term and accrue interest at 16.00% annually. Also on September 11, 2023, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement, the Company acquired all of the oilfield equipment assets of oilfield services providers Rapid Hot Flow LLC and Rapid Pressure Services, LLC, from OilServ, LLC, in exchange for 2,939,133 shares of the Company's common stock, valued at $1,057,500. The total shares issued at closing was 2,645,220 shares of Company common stock, and the remaining 293,913 shares were issued on March 11, 2024 following the satisfaction of the indemnification provisions which were provided for in the acquisition. On October 24, 2023, pursuant to the September 2023 Note Purchase Agreement, Cross River purchased an additional $150,000 of the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes and on October 6, 2023, Richard Murphy, our Chief Executive Officer and Chair, purchased $100,000 of the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes. Additionally, on October 6, 2023, Equigen and Angel Capital contemporaneously invested $187,500 and $125,000, respectively, in aggregate principal amount of the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes. On March 4, 2024, the United States District Court of Colorado dismissed a May 2022 class action complaint filed against the Company and two current or former officers. The Court's order dismissed the claims against the Company and certain of our current and former officers and granted the Company's February 2023 motion to dismiss the class action complaint without prejudice. On March 21, 2024, the Company was informed by the plaintiff's attorney that no appeal will be filed and the class action complaint is considered dismissed without prejudice as of that date. Recent Market Conditions Increased global demand for energy products due to international conflicts has generally had a positive impact on oil prices and hence our business. For the year ended December 31, 2023, WTI crude oil price averaged $77.58 per barrel which is significantly higher than the oil prices during the 2020-2021 pandemic years, resulting in an increase in the domestic rig count within the markets we serve. We continue to feel the impact of domestic political actions and international activities (including the war in Ukraine), which continues to impact demand for domestic oil and gas. The domestic rig count has rebounded sharply from the historic low of 351 rigs as of December 31, 2020, to an active domestic rig count of 622 rigs as of December 31, 2023. However, current year domestic rig count has decreased compared to the 779 active rigs as of December 31, 2022. Despite the reduction in active domestic rig count from 2022 to 2023, the Company continues to experience consistent demand for our services, with micro and macro-economic conditions still creating quality demand for domestic oil and gas, allowing the Company to anticipate steady activity levels and continued margin improvement over the coming years. The Company's expectations for consistent activity are somewhat offset by the change in political environment and its uncertain impact on oil exploration and production, as well as increased inflation and rising interest costs. Reductions or limitations in leasing federal property for oil exploration in addition to other measures impacting oil and gas supply and demand have had an impact on the oil exploration and production industry. Finally, to the extent that state and local governments increase regulations, there can be a negative impact to the oil exploration and production industry. The full extent of the impact of OPEC+ actions, USA governmental actions and oil price changes on our operations and financial performance depends on future developments that are uncertain and unpredictable, including any potential resurgence restrictions related to the pandemic, its impact on capital and financial markets, any new information that may emerge concerning the severity of other strains of the virus, its spread to other regions as well as the actions taken to contain it, production response of domestic oil producers to lower oil prices, and the adherence to any actions by OPEC+. 4 Corporate Structure and Overview of Business Operations Enservco provides various services to the domestic onshore oil and natural gas industry. These services include hot oiling and acidizing ("Production Services") and frac water heating ("Completion and Other Services"). Our business operations are conducted through our wholly owned subsidiary, Heat Waves Hot Oil Service LLC ("Heat Waves"), a Colorado limited liability company. We own and operate a fleet of specialized trucks, trailers, frac tanks and other well-site related equipment and serve customers in several major domestic oil and gas producing areas, including the DJ Basin/Niobrara area in Colorado and Wyoming, the San Juan Basin in northwestern New Mexico, the Marcellus and Utica Shale areas in Pennsylvania and Ohio, the Jonah area, Green River and Powder River Basins in Wyoming, and the Eagle Ford Shale and East Texas Oilfield in Texas. Historically, the Company focused its growth strategy on strategic acquisitions of operating companies and expansion of services through capital investment consisting of the acquisition and fabrication of property and equipment. That strategy also included expanding into new geographical territories as well as expanding the services it provides. In September 2023, Enservco acquired all of the oilfield equipment assets from OilServ, LLC, for 2,939,133 shares of Company common stock valued at $1.1 million in order to expand its footprint and customer base in the Pennsylvania Marcellus Shale formation. Operating Entities As noted above, Enservco conducts its business operations and holds assets through its wholly owned subsidiary entity, Heat Waves. Heat Waves provides a range of well stimulation/maintenance services to a diverse group of independent and major oil and natural gas companies. The primary services provided are intended to: (1) (2) Help maintain and enhance the production of existing wells throughout their productive life; and Assist in the fracturing of formations for newly drilled oil and natural gas wells. These services consist of hot oiling and acidizing and frac water heating. Heat Waves also provides water hauling and well site construction services, primarily during the warmer seasons. Heat Waves’ operations are currently in the major oil and natural gas areas in Colorado, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Texas, West Virginia, and Wyoming. Areas of Operations We serve customers in several major domestic oil and gas producing areas, including the DJ Basin/Niobrara area in Colorado and Wyoming, the San Juan Basin in northwestern New Mexico, the Marcellus and Utica Shale areas in Pennsylvania and Ohio, the Jonah area, Green River and Powder River Basins in Wyoming, and the Eagle Ford Shale and East Texas Oilfield in Texas. Operating Segments Enservco, through its operating subsidiary, provides a range of services to owners and operators of oil and natural gas wells in two primary operating segments; production services ("Production Services") and completion and other services ("Completion and Other Services"). Production Services The Company's Production Services segment consists of hot oiling services, acidizing, and pressure testing. Production Services operations are currently in Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio and Texas. Production Services accounted for 48% of the Company’s total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to 52% for the year ended December 31, 2022. Hot Oiling Services – Hot oiling services involve the circulation of a heated fluid, typically oil, to dissolve, melt, or dislodge paraffin or other hydrocarbon deposits from the tubing of a producing well. Paraffin deposits build up over time from normal production operations, although the rate at which this paraffin builds up depends on the chemical character of the crude oil or natural gas being produced. These services are performed by circulating and heating oil from a well through a hot oiling truck and then pumping it down the casing and back up the tubing to remove the deposits. Based on customer needs and seasonal conditions, these vehicles are deployed among the service regions as necessary in seeking to maximize their productive time. Hot oiling servicing also includes the heating of oil storage tanks. The heating of storage tanks is performed (i) to eliminate frozen water and other soluble waste in the tanks; and (ii) because oil that has been heated flows more efficiently from the tanks to transports hauling oil to the refineries in colder weather. Acidizing – Acidizing entails pumping large volumes of specially formulated acids and/or chemicals into a well to dissolve materials blocking the flow of the crude oil or natural gas. The acid is pumped into the well under pressure. Acidizing is most often used to increase permeability throughout the formation, clean up formation damage near the wellbore caused by drilling, and to remove buildup of materials restricting the flow of crude oil and gas through perforations in the well casing. For most customers, Heat Waves supplies the acid solution and also pumps that solution into a given well. Pressure Testing – Pressure testing consists of pumping fluids into new or existing wells or other components of the well system such as flow lines to detect leaks. Hot oiling trucks and pressure trucks are used to perform this service. Completion and Other Services The Company's Completion and Other Services segment consists of frac water heating and other services. Completion and Other Services operations are currently in Colorado, Wyoming, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Ohio. Completion and Other Services accounted for 52% of the Company’s total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to 48% for the year ended December 31, 2022. Frac Water Heating – Frac water heating is the process of heating water used in connection with the fracturing process of completing a well. Fracturing services are intended to enhance the production from crude oil and natural gas wells through the creation of conductive flowpaths to enable the hydrocarbons to reach the wellbore where the natural flow has been restricted by underground formations. The fracturing process consists of pumping a fluid slurry, which largely consists of fresh water and a proppant into a well at sufficient pressure to fracture (i.e. create conductive flowpaths) the formation. To ensure these solutions are properly mixed and can flow freely, during certain parts of the year the water frequently needs to be heated to a sufficient temperature as determined by the well owner/operator. Other Services – The Company's other services consist primarily of hauling services where the Company utilizes its operating assets that are not deployed to transport both liquid and dry materials for customers. 5 Ownership of Company Assets The Company owns various equipment and other assets to provide its services and products. All of the Company's equipment is pledged as security under the Company's 2022 Master Lease Agreement with Utica Leaseco, LLC ("Utica") as of December 31, 2023, which is more fully described in Note 5 - Debt to the consolidated financials statements. Historically, as supply and demand require, the Company has leased additional trucks and equipment from time to time. These leases are generally for periods of less than one year, and therefore are treated as operating leases for accounting purposes. Competitive Business Conditions We face intense competition in our operations. Competition is influenced by factors such as price, capacity, the quality/safety record/availability of equipment and work crews, and the reputation and experience of the service provider. The Company believes that an important competitive factor in establishing and maintaining long-term customer relationships is having an experienced, skilled, and well-trained workforce that is responsive to our customers’ needs. Although we believe customers consider all these factors, price is the primary factor in determining which service provider is awarded work. The demand for our services fluctuates primarily in relation to the domestic commodity price (or anticipated price) of crude oil and natural gas which, in turn, is largely driven by the domestic and worldwide supply of, and demand for, oil and natural gas, political events, as well as speculation within the financial markets. Demand and prices are often volatile and difficult to predict and depend on events that are not within our control. Generally, as supply of oil and natural gas decreases and demand increases, service and maintenance requirements increase as oil and natural gas producers drill new wells and attempt to maximize the productivity of their existing wells to take advantage of the higher priced environment. Conversely, as the supply of commodities increase and demand and crude oil and natural gas prices fall, oil and gas producers drill fewer wells and scale back or suspend service and maintenance work, and put significant pressure on well services providers such as us to reduce prices for our services. While crude oil prices and demand rebounded in 2022, due to the Russian war with Ukraine and the lessening impacts from COVID-19, we expect that price competition will continue to be intense throughout much of 2024. The Company’s competition primarily consists of small and large regional or local contractors. The Company attempts to differentiate itself from its competition in large part through its range, availability, and quality of services it has the capability to provide. The Company has invested a significant amount of capital into purchasing, developing, and maintaining a fleet of trucks and other equipment that are critical to the services it provides. Further, the Company concentrates on providing services to a diverse group of major and independent oil and natural gas companies in a number of geographical areas. Dependence on Major Customers The Company serves numerous major and independent oil and natural gas companies that are active in our core areas of operations. As of December 31, 2023, two customers represented more than 10% of the Company's total accounts receivable balance at 50% and 18%, respectively. The same two customers accounted for 32% and 10% of total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company's top five customers accounted for 60% of total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023, and 57% for the year ended December 31, 2022. The loss of one or more of our significant customers or nonpayment by such customers could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business until the equipment is redeployed. Further, the Company believes that if its customers shift production from any of the geographies in which it operates the Company could effectively redeploy its equipment into other domestic geographic areas, but it may require us to incur relocation expenses which would reduce operating margins. Seasonality A significant portion of the Company’s operations is impacted by seasonal factors, particularly with regard to its frac water heating and hot oiling services. In both fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, 70% of our revenues were earned during the first and fourth fiscal quarters. In regard to frac water heating, as customers rely on Heat Waves to heat large amounts of water for use in fracturing formations, demand for this service is much greater in the colder winter months. Similarly, hot oiling services are in higher demand during the colder months, as services are needed for maintenance of existing wells and to heat oil storage tanks. Acidizing and pressure testing are performed throughout the year with revenues generally not impacted by weather to a significant degree. Raw Materials The Company purchases a wide variety of raw materials, parts, and components that are made by other manufacturers and suppliers for our use. The Company is not dependent on any single source of supply for those parts, supplies or materials. However, there are a limited number of vendors for propane and certain acids and chemicals, and propane prices have been volatile. The Company uses a limited number of suppliers and service providers available to fabricate and/or construct the trucks and equipment used in its hot oiling, frac water heating, and acidizing related services. Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, Franchises, Concessions, Royalty Agreements or Labor Contracts As is the situation with all companies in the frac water heating service business, we rely on certain procedures and practices in performing our services. In 2016, we were issued our first patent relating to an aspect of the frac water heating process. Heat Waves has since been issued three United States patents and one Canadian patent and has two United States patents pending related to aspects of the frac water heating process. We have other patent applications pending regarding other procedures used in our process of heating frac water. We are aware that one unrelated company has been awarded four patents related, in part, to a process for heating of frac water. 6 Government Regulation The Company and its subsidiary are subject to a variety of government regulations ranging from environmental to Occupational Safety and Health Act ("OSHA") to the Department of Transportation. Our operations are also subject to stringent federal, state and local laws regulating the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to health and safety or the protection of the environment. These federal, state, and local laws and regulations relating to protection of the environment, wildlife protection, historic preservation, and health and safety are extensive and changing. The trend in environmental legislation and regulation is generally toward stricter standards, and we expect that this trend will continue as governmental agencies issue and amend existing regulations. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations as they currently exist or may be amended in the future may result in the assessment of substantial administrative, civil and criminal penalties, as well as the issuance of injunctions limiting or prohibiting activities. Adherence with these regulatory requirements increases our cost of doing business and consequently affects our profitability. The Company does not believe that it is in material violation of any regulations that would have a significant negative impact on the Company’s operations. Through the routine course of providing services, the Company handles and stores bulk quantities of hazardous materials. If leaks or spills of hazardous materials handled, transported or stored by us occur, the Company may be responsible under applicable environmental laws for costs of remediating any damage to the surface or subsurface (including aquifers). The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), also known as "Superfund," and comparable state statutes impose strict, joint and several liability on owners and operators of sites and on persons who disposed of or arranged for the disposal of "hazardous substances" found at such sites. It is not uncommon for the government to file claims requiring cleanup actions, demands for reimbursement for government-incurred cleanup costs, or natural resource damages, or for neighboring landowners and other third parties to file claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by hazardous substances released into the environment. The Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA") and comparable state statutes govern the disposal of "solid waste" and "hazardous waste" and authorize the imposition of substantial fines and penalties for non-compliance, as well as requirements for corrective actions. Although CERCLA currently excludes petroleum from its definition of "hazardous substance," state laws affecting our operations may impose clean-up liability relating to petroleum and petroleum-related products. In addition, although RCRA classifies certain oilfield wastes as "non-hazardous," such exploration and production wastes could be reclassified as hazardous wastes thereby making such wastes subject to more stringent handling and disposal requirements. CERCLA, RCRA and comparable state statutes can impose liability for clean-up of sites and disposal of substances found on drilling and production sites long after operations on such sites have been completed. Other statutes relating to the storage and handling of pollutants include the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 ("OPA") which requires certain owners and operators of facilities that store or otherwise handle oil to prepare and implement spill response plans relating to the potential discharge of oil into surface waters. The OPA contains numerous requirements relating to prevention of, reporting of, and response to oil spills into waters of the United States. State laws mandate oil cleanup programs with respect to contaminated soil. A failure to comply with OPA’s requirements or inadequate cooperation during a spill response action may subject a responsible party to civil or criminal enforcement actions. In the course of the Company’s operations, it does not typically generate materials that are considered "hazardous substances." One exception, however, would be spills that occur prior to well treatment materials being circulated downhole. For example, if the Company spills acid on a roadway as a result of a vehicle accident in the course of providing production/stimulation services, or if a tank with acid leaks prior to downhole circulation, the spilled material may be considered a "hazardous substance." In this respect, the Company may occasionally be considered to "generate" materials that are regulated as hazardous substances and, as a result, may incur CERCLA liability for cleanup costs. Also, claims may be filed for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by the release of hazardous substances or other pollutants. The Clean Water Act ("CWA") and comparable state statutes impose restrictions and controls on the discharge of pollutants, including spills and leaks of oil and other substances, into waters of the United States. The discharge of pollutants into regulated waters is prohibited, except in accordance with the terms of a permit issued by the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") or an analogous state agency. The CWA regulates storm water runoff from oil and natural gas facilities and requires a storm water discharge permit for certain activities. Such a permit requires the regulated facility to monitor and sample storm water runoff from its operations. The CWA and regulations implemented thereunder also prohibit discharges of dredged and fill material in wetlands and other waters of the United States unless authorized by an appropriately issued permit. The CWA and comparable state statutes provide for civil, criminal and administrative penalties for unauthorized discharges of oil and other pollutants and impose liability on parties responsible for those discharges for the costs of cleaning up any environmental damage caused by the release and for natural resource damages resulting from the release. The Federal Energy Policy Act of 2005 amended the SDWA to exclude hydraulic fracturing from the definition of "underground injection" under certain circumstances. However, the repeal of this exclusion has been advocated by certain advocacy organizations and others in the public. The EPA, at the request of Congress, conducted a national study examining the potential impacts of hydraulic fracturing on drinking water resources and issued a final assessment report in December 2016, which concluded that hydraulic fracturing activities can impact drinking water resources under some circumstances and identifies factors that influence these impacts. We incur, and expect to continue to incur, capital and operating costs to comply with the environmental laws and regulations described herein. The technical requirements of these laws and regulations are becoming increasingly complex, stringent and expensive to implement. If new federal or state laws or regulations that significantly restrict hydraulic fracturing are adopted, such legal requirements could result in delays, eliminate certain drilling and injection activities, make it more difficult or costly for our customers to perform fracturing, and/or increase their and our costs of compliance and doing business. It is also possible that drilling and injection operations utilizing our services could adversely affect the environment, which could result in a requirement to perform investigations or clean ups or the incurrence of other unexpected material costs or liabilities. Significant studies and research have been devoted to climate change and global warming, and climate change has developed into a major political issue in the United States and globally. Certain research suggests that greenhouse gas emissions contribute to climate change and pose a threat to the environment. Recent scientific research and political debate has focused in part on carbon dioxide and methane incidental to oil and natural gas exploration and production. Many state governments have enacted legislation directed at controlling greenhouse gas emissions, and future state and federal legislation and regulation could impose additional restrictions or requirements in connection with our operations and favor use of alternative energy sources, which could increase operating costs and decrease demand for oil products. As such, our business could be materially adversely affected by domestic and international legislation targeted at controlling climate change. We are also subject to a number of federal and state laws and regulations, including OSHA and comparable state laws, whose purpose is to protect the health and safety of workers. In addition, the OSHA hazard communication standard, the EPA community right-to-know regulations under Title III of the federal Superfund Amendment and Reauthorization Act, and comparable state statutes require that information be maintained concerning hazardous materials used or produced in our operations and that this information be provided to employees, state and local government authorities and citizens. Due to the fact that our trucks travel over public highways to get to customers’ wells, the Company is subject to the regulations of the Department of Transportation ("DOT"). These regulations are very comprehensive and cover a wide variety of subjects from the maintenance and operation of vehicles to driver qualifications to safety. Violations of these regulations can result in penalties ranging from monetary fines to a restriction on the use of the vehicles. Under regulations effective July 1, 2010, an uncured violation of regulations could result in a shutdown of all the vehicles of Heat Waves. The Company does not believe it is in violation of DOT regulations at this time that would result in a shutdown of vehicles. Some states and certain municipalities have regulated, or are considering regulating, hydraulic fracturing ("fracking") which, if accomplished, could impact certain of our operations. While the Company does not believe that existing regulations and contemplated actions to limit or prohibit fracking have impacted its activities to date, there can be no assurance that these actions, if taken on a wider scale, may not adversely impact the Company’s business operations and revenues. 7 Human Capital As of March 14, 2024, the Company employed 86 full-time employees. The Company may at times hire contractors to perform work. Available Information We maintain a website at www.enservco.com.

RISK FACTORS An investment in our securities may be considered speculative and involves a high degree of risk, including, among other items, the risk factors described below. These risk factors are intended to generally describe certain risks that could materially affect the Company and its business operations and activities. You should carefully consider the risks described below and elsewhere herein in connection with any decision to acquire, hold or sell the Company’s securities. The following list identifies and briefly summarizes certain risks but should not be viewed as complete or comprehensive. If any of the contingencies discussed in the following paragraphs or other materially adverse events actually occur, the business, financial condition of the business and its results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you could lose all or a significant part of your investment. Liquidity and Debt Risks An inability to borrow from our new receivables financing during our peak work periods would have a negative impact on our business and liquidity. In March 2022, we refinanced $13.8 million of outstanding debt under our 2017 Amended Credit Facility with East West Bank for $8.4 million in cash plus future unsecured payments of up to $1.0 million. Prior to the Refinancing of our debt with East West Bank, our growth was limited because of our inability to borrow under our line of credit with East West Bank to meet working capital requirements during our peak demand periods during the winter months. Our ability to grow and sustain our business in the future will depend upon our ability to be able to regularly borrow under our Receivables Financing (the “Receivables Financing”), as defined in Note 5 - Debt to the consolidated financials statements. There is no assurance that we will be able to make future borrowings under lines of credit, including our Receivables Financing, in order to fund our operations during peak demand periods. If we are unable to generate or obtain the requisite amount of financing needed to fund our business operations or execute our growth strategy, our liquidity and ability to continue operations could be materially adversely affected. We continue to have significant debt obligations that are subject to interest rate increases. We have significant debt obligations under our 2022 equipment lease facility with Utica Leaseco, LLC (the “Equipment Financing” and collectively with the Receivable Financing, the “2022 Financing Facilities”), with current minimum monthly payments to Utica Leaseco, LLC of $204,000 as of January 1, 2024, which is subject to twice yearly Prime Rate dependent interest rate increases, as further described in Note 5 - Debt to the consolidated financial statements. Our ability to pay interest and principal payments on our Equipment Financing, and to satisfy our other debt obligations, as described in Note 5 - Debt to the consolidated financial statements, will depend upon our ability to achieve increased utilization of our equipment, which is highly influenced by weather and customers' drilling activity. We cannot reasonably guarantee that our business will generate sufficient cash flows from operations, or that future capital will be available to us, in an amount sufficient to fund our future liquidity needs. In the absence of adequate cash from operations and/or other available capital resources we could face substantial liquidity constraints. To the extent that we could not repay or refinance our indebtedness when due, or generate adequate cash flows from operations, we may have to curtail operations which would adversely affect our ability to continue as a going concern. We cannot reasonably guarantee that we will be able to raise sufficient capital through debt or equity financings on terms acceptable to us, or at all, or that we could consummate dispositions of assets or operations for fair market value, in a timely manner or at all. We are currently in a difficult operating environment and our business, results of operations, and financial condition may be affected by general economic conditions and other factors beyond our control. We face a difficult operating environment with oil and gas exploration and production companies exerting significant pressure on us to reduce our prices for the services we provide. Reduced activity and operating margins could force us to curtail operations in some or all our locations which would materially and adversely affect our revenues and our ability to continue as a going concern. General economic conditions, weather, oil and natural gas prices and financial, business and other factors may also affect our operations and our future performance. Many of these factors are beyond our control. The Company experienced a heavy downturn in demand for our services in early 2020, which continued throughout 2021. While crude oil prices and demand for services rebounded in 2022, demand for our services still remained below pre- pandemic levels throughout the course of 2023. If we do not have sufficient funds on hand to continue to pay our monthly debt when due, we may be required to seek a waiver or amendment from our lender, refinance our indebtedness, incur additional indebtedness, sell assets, or sell additional shares of our common stock. We may not be able to complete such transactions on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Our failure to generate sufficient funds to pay our debts or to undertake any of these actions successfully could result in a default on our debt obligations, which would materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. We have operated at a loss, and there is no assurance of our profitability in the future. We have experienced periods of low demand for our services and have incurred operating losses. Although there have been improvements in demand in recent periods, we are still operating at a loss and in an accumulated deficit position. Demand for services in the oil and natural gas industry is cyclical and has experienced significant downturns in recent years, which have significantly affected the performance of our business. Additional adverse developments affecting this industry could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We may not be able to sufficiently reduce our costs or increase our revenues to achieve profitability and generate positive operating income. We may incur further operating losses and experience negative operating cash flow, which may be significant. As a result of this history of losses, and combined with other factors, the Company believes that substantial doubt exists over our ability to continue as a going concern from one year after the date of issuance of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. 9 Acquisition and Operations Related Risks While our growth strategy includes exploring potential acquisitions of other oilfield or other diversified services companies not directly in the oil sector, we may not be successful in identifying, making and integrating business or asset acquisitions, if any, in the future. We anticipate that a component of our growth strategy may be to make strategically focused acquisitions of businesses or assets aimed to strengthen our presence and expand services offered in selected service markets. Additionally, we believe that the diversification of our business outside of the oil and gas services industry will be important in achieving our long-term growth strategy. Pursuit of this strategy may be restricted by the on-going volatility and uncertainty within the credit markets which may significantly limit the availability of funds for such acquisitions. Our ability to use shares of our common stock in an acquisition transaction, whether as merger consideration or for raising capital, may be adversely affected by the volatility in the price of our common stock and by the potential requirement of shareholder approval. In addition to restricted funding availability, the success of this strategy will depend on our ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates and to negotiate acceptable financial and other terms. There is no assurance that we will be able to do so. The success of an acquisition also depends on our ability to perform adequate due diligence before the acquisition and on our ability to integrate the acquisition after it is completed. While we intend to commit significant resources to ensure that we conduct comprehensive due diligence, there can be no assurance that all potential risks and liabilities will be identified in connection with an acquisition. Similarly, while we expect to commit substantial resources, including management time and effort, to integrating acquired businesses into ours, there is no assurance that we will be successful in integrating these businesses. In particular, it may be important that we are able to retain both key personnel of the acquired business and its customer base. A loss of either key personnel or customers could negatively impact the future operating results of any acquired business. Our business is substantially impacted by seasonality and weather conditions. Our operations, particularly our frac heating services, are impacted by weather conditions and temperatures. Unseasonably warm weather during winter months reduces demand for our frac heating services and results in higher operating costs, as a percentage of revenue, due to the need to retain equipment operators during these low demand periods. Management makes concerted efforts to reduce time and costs during these low demand periods by utilizing operators in other business segments, reducing hours, and in some instances, utilizing seasonal layoffs. Further, during the winter months, our customers may delay operations or we may not be able to operate or move our equipment between locations during periods of heavy snow, ice or rain, and during the spring some areas impose transportation restrictions due to muddy conditions caused by spring thaws. We may be unable to implement price increases. We periodically seek to increase the prices of our services to offset rising costs and to generate increased revenues. We operate in a very competitive industry and, as a result, we are not always successful in raising or maintaining our existing prices. Additionally, during periods of increased market demand, a significant amount of new equipment may enter the market, which would also put pressure on the pricing of our services. Even when we are able to increase our prices, we may not be able to do so at a rate that is sufficient to offset rising costs. Also, we may not be able to successfully increase prices without adversely affecting our activity levels. The inability to maintain our prices or to increase the prices of our services in order to offset rising costs could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations. We anticipate pricing pressure impacting our other service lines to the extent that oil and gas prices drop. We operate in a capital-intensive industry and may not be able to finance future growth of our operations or future acquisitions. Our business activities require substantial capital expenditures. If our cash flows from operating activities and available borrowings are not sufficient to fund our capital expenditure budget, we would be required to reduce these expenditures or to fund these expenditures through new debt or equity issuances. Our ability to raise new debt or equity capital, or to refinance or restructure our debt, at any given time depends on, among other things, the condition of the capital markets, our financial condition, and the oil and gas industry market outlook at such time. Also, the terms of existing or future debt or equity instruments could further restrict our business operations. The inability to finance future growth could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Increased labor costs or the unavailability of skilled workers could adversely affect our operations. Companies in our industry, including us, are dependent upon the available labor pool of skilled workers. We compete with other oilfield services businesses and other employers to attract and retain qualified personnel with the technical skills and experience required to provide our customers with the highest quality service. We are also subject to the Fair Labor Standards Act, which governs such matters as minimum wage, overtime and other working conditions, and which can increase our labor costs or subject us to liabilities to our employees. A shortage of skilled workers or other general inflationary pressures or changes in applicable laws and regulations could make it more difficult for us to attract and retain skilled personnel and could require us to enhance our wage and benefits packages. Labor costs may increase in the future, or we may not be able to reduce wages when demand and pricing falls, and such changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 10 We could be negatively impacted by inflationary and interest rate pressures. The U.S. economy has experienced rising inflation along with eleven interest rate hikes during 2022-2023, which has raised the federal funds rate by more than five percentage points over the last 24 months. A sustained increase in inflation may continue to increase our costs for labor, debt, materials, supplies, and services costs. Future interest rate hikes could increase the cost of our variable rate indebtedness. Our materials suppliers and customers could face inflationary pressures, and the resulting impacts such as increased labor costs and materials could negatively impact our business in the event we are not able to increase the cost of our services, which could decrease our operating margins and financial condition. Historically, we have experienced a high employee turnover rate. Any difficulty we experience replacing or adding workers could adversely affect our business. We believe that the high turnover rate in our industry is attributable to the nature of oilfield services work, which is physically demanding and performed outdoors, and to the seasonality of certain of our segments. As a result, workers may choose to pursue employment in areas that offer a more desirable work environment at wage rates that are competitive with ours. The potential inability or lack of desire by workers to commute to our facilities and job sites, as well as the competition for workers from competitors or other industries, are factors that could negatively affect our ability to attract and retain skilled workers. We may not be able to recruit, train and retain an adequate number of workers to replace departing workers. The inability to maintain an adequate workforce could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our business depends on domestic (United States) spending by the crude oil and natural gas industry which often incurs significant price volatility; our business has been, and may in the future be, adversely affected by industry and financial market conditions that are beyond our control. We depend on our customers’ ability and willingness to make operating and capital expenditures to explore, develop and produce crude oil and natural gas in the United States. Customers’ expectations for future crude oil and natural gas prices, as well as the availability of capital for operating and capital expenditures, may cause them to curtail spending, thereby reducing demand for our services and equipment. Although there has been a recent uptick in demand for our services, major declines in oil and natural gas prices in 2020 and 2021 have resulted in substantial declines in capital spending and drilling programs across the industry. Any declines in oil and natural gas prices may result in many exploration and production companies substantially reducing drilling and completions programs and have required service providers to make pricing concessions. Industry conditions and specifically the market price for crude oil and natural gas are influenced by numerous domestic and global factors, such as the war in Ukraine and other potential global conflicts over which we have no control, such as the supply of and demand for oil and natural gas, domestic and worldwide economic conditions that are affected by several factors beyond our control, weather conditions, political instability in oil and natural gas producing countries, and perceived economic conditions. The volatility of the oil and natural gas industry, and the consequent impact on commodity prices as well as exploration and production activity, could adversely impact the level of drilling and activity by many of our customers. Where declining prices lead to reduced exploration and development activities in our market areas, the reduction in exploration and development activities over a sustained period will have a negative long-term impact on our business. Several month periods of low oil and natural gas prices typically result in increased pressure from our customers to make additional pricing concessions and impact our borrowing arrangements with our principal bank. There also has been significant political pressure for the United States economy to reduce its dependence on crude oil and natural gas due to the impacts on climate change. There have been significant political and regulatory efforts to reduce or eliminate hydraulic fracturing operations in certain of our service areas. On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed the reconciliation budget bill, known as the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”), which imposed an expression of interest fee for nominating federal lands for potential lease sale, increased the royalty rate, annual rental rate, and minimum bid on federal oil and gas leases issued after that date, and ended the noncompetitive oil and gas leasing process. Furthermore, the Colorado legislature enacted a bill that could significantly restrict oil and gas drilling in Colorado, thereby negatively affecting our revenues. These activities may make oil and gas investment and production less attractive. Higher oil and gas prices do not necessarily result in increased drilling activity because our customers’ expectation of future prices and access to capital also drive demand for production maintenance and completion services. Oil and gas prices, as well as demand for our services, also depend upon other factors that are beyond our control, including, but not limited to, the following: ●Supply and demand for crude oil and natural gas; ●Political and societal pressures against crude oil and natural gas exploration and production; ●Cost of exploring for, producing, and delivering oil and natural gas; ●Expectations regarding future energy prices; ●Advancements in exploration and development technology; ●Adoption or repeal of laws regulating oil and gas production in the United States; ●Imposition or lifting of economic sanctions against foreign companies; ●Weather conditions, natural disasters and pandemics; ●Rate of discovery of new oil and natural gas reserves; ●Tax policy regarding the oil and gas industry; ●Oil and gas companies facing capital market pressure to reduce their debt levels may decrease resources otherwise utilized for drilling activity; ●Development and use of alternative energy sources; and ●The ability of oil and gas companies to generate funds or otherwise obtain external capital for projects and production operations. Ongoing volatility and uncertainty in the domestic and global economic and political environments have caused the oilfield services industry to experience demand volatility. While our management is generally optimistic for the continuing development of the onshore domestic oil and gas industry over the long term, there are several political and economic pressures negatively impacting the economics of production from existing wells, future drilling operations, and the willingness of banks and investors to provide capital to participants in the oil and gas industry. We believe that these cuts in spending will continue to curtail drilling programs as well as discretionary spending on well services and will continue to result in a reduction in the demand for our services in the future, the rates we can charge, and equipment utilization. In addition, certain of our customers could become unable to pay their suppliers, including us. Any of these conditions or events would adversely affect our operating results. 11 Our success depends on key members of our management, and the loss of any executive or key personnel could disrupt our business operations. We depend, to a large extent, on the services of certain of our key managers and executive officers, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The departure or loss of one or more of the Company's key managers or executive officers could materially disrupt our operations. Similarly, the inability to attract and retain new managers or executives to complement and enhance our management team could negatively impact our Company. We depend on several significant customers, and a loss of one or more significant customers could adversely affect our results of operations. Our top five customers accounted for 60% and 57% of our total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The loss of any one of these customers, or a sustained decrease in demand by any of such customers, could result in a substantial loss of revenues and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. While we believe our equipment could be redeployed in the current market environment if we lost any material customers, such loss could have an adverse effect on our business until the equipment is redeployed. We believe that the market for our services is sufficiently diversified such that it is not dependent on any single customer or a few major customers. Declining general economic, business or industry conditions may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity and financial condition. Concerns over global economic conditions, global conflicts, the threat of pandemic diseases and the results thereof, energy costs, geopolitical issues, inflation, the availability and cost of credit, including increases in interest rates, the United States mortgage market have contributed to increased economic uncertainty and diminished expectations for the global economy. These factors, combined with volatile prices of oil and natural gas, and declining business and consumer confidence, have precipitated an economic slowdown and a recession. Concerns about global economic growth and global conflicts have had a significant adverse impact on global financial markets and commodity prices. If the economic climate in the United States or abroad continues to deteriorate, demand for petroleum products could diminish, which could impact the price at which we can sell our oil and natural gas production and completion services, affect the ability of our vendors, suppliers and customers to continue operations and ultimately adversely impact our results of operations, liquidity and financial condition. Environmental compliance costs and liabilities could reduce our earnings and cash available for operations. We are subject to increasingly stringent laws and regulations relating to environmental protection and the importation and use of hazardous materials, including laws and regulations governing air emissions, water discharges and waste management. Government authorities have the power to enforce compliance with their regulations, and violations are subject to fines, injunctions or both. We incur, and expect to continue to incur, capital and operating costs to comply with environmental laws and regulations. The technical requirements of these laws and regulations are becoming increasingly complex, stringent and expensive to implement. These laws may provide for "strict liability" for damages to natural resources or threats to public health and safety. Strict liability can render a party liable for damages without regard to negligence or fault on the part of the party. Some environmental laws provide for joint and several strict liability for remediation of spills and releases of hazardous substances. We use hazardous substances and transport hazardous wastes in our operations. Accordingly, we could become subject to potentially material liabilities relating to the investigation and cleanup of contaminated properties, and to claims alleging personal injury or property damage as the result of exposures to, or releases of, hazardous substances. In addition, stricter enforcement of existing laws and regulations, new laws and regulations, the discovery of previously unknown contamination, or the imposition of new or increased requirements could require us to incur costs and penalties or become the basis of new or increased liabilities that could reduce the Company's earnings and cash available for operations. We believe we are currently in compliance with environmental laws and regulations. Intense competition within the well services industry may adversely affect our ability to market our services. The well services industry is intensely competitive. It includes numerous small companies capable of competing effectively in our markets on a local basis, as well as several large companies that possess substantially greater financial and other resources than us. Our larger competitors have greater resources that allow those competitors to compete more effectively than us. Our small competitors may be able to react to market conditions more quickly. Significant consolidations of our customers in the DJ Basin market (our primary Colorado market), could result in a more competitive market and increase our customer concentration. Further, the amount of equipment available may exceed demand at some point in time, which could result in active price competition. 12 We may become involved in intellectual property litigation either due to claims by others that we are infringing their intellectual property rights or due to our own assertions that others are infringing upon our intellectual property rights. As is the situation with other companies in the frac water heating service business, we rely on certain procedures and practices in performing our services. In 2016, we were issued our first patent relating to an aspect of the frac water heating process and in 2017, a second patent was issued. We have other patent applications pending regarding other procedures used in our process of heating frac water. We are aware that one unrelated company has been awarded four patents related, in part, to a process for heating of frac water. Infringement and other intellectual property claims and proceedings brought against us, whether successful or not, could result in substantial costs and harm to our reputation. We cannot be certain that we will successfully defend against allegations of infringement of patents and intellectual property rights of others. If the owner of intellectual property establishes that we are infringing its intellectual property rights, we may be forced to change our services, and such changes may be expensive or impractical, or we may need to seek royalty or license agreements from the owner of such rights. If we are unable to agree on acceptable terms, we may be required to discontinue the sale of key services or halt other aspects of our operations. We may also be liable for financial damages for a violation of intellectual property rights. Any adverse result related to violation of third-party intellectual property rights could materially and adversely harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. Even if intellectual property claims brought against us are without merit, they may result in costly and time-consuming litigation and may require significant attention from our management and key personnel. Similarly, third parties may misappropriate our intellectual property. Monitoring unauthorized use of our intellectual property is difficult and costly. While we actively seek to protect our intellectual property and proprietary rights, the steps we have taken may not prevent unauthorized use by third parties. Misappropriation of our intellectual property or potential litigation concerning such matters could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our operations are subject to cybersecurity attacks that could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our operations are increasingly dependent on digital technologies and services. We use these technologies for internal purposes, including data storage, processing and transmissions, as well as in our interactions with customers’ and suppliers’ products, services and technology. Digital technologies are subject to the risk of cybersecurity attacks. A cybersecurity incident could be caused by malicious insiders or third parties using sophisticated, targeted methods to circumvent firewalls, encryption, and other cybersecurity defenses, including hacking, fraud, trickery, or other forms of deception. Emerging artificial intelligence technologies may improve or expand the capabilities of malicious third parties in a way we cannot predict at this time, including being used to develop new hacking tools, exploit vulnerabilities, obscure malicious activities and increase the difficulty detecting threats. If our systems for protecting against cybersecurity risks prove not to be sufficient, we could be adversely affected by, among other things: loss of or damage to intellectual property, proprietary or confidential information, or customer, supplier, or employee data; interruption of our business operations; and increased costs required to prevent, respond to, or mitigate cybersecurity attacks. These risks could harm our reputation and our relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and other third parties, and may result in claims against us. These risks could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that originated during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, and continued to exist as of December 31, 2022 and 2023. If our remediation of the material weaknesses is not effective, or if we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, our ability to accurately and timely report our financial results could be adversely affected. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, we identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management identified deficiencies related to the following: (i) our application of the accounting for a warrant issued to a related party in connection with a conversion of subordinated debt to equity during the first quarter of 2021; (ii) our eligibility to receive certain Employee Retention Credits through the CARES Act of 2020; and (iii) our accounting for income taxes in connection with a change in control that occurred during the first quarter of 2021. While management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2023, in order to properly advance the initiative to address remediation of our material weaknesses that originated as of December 31, 2021, and continued to exist as of December 31, 2022 and 2023, the Company improved the control environment surrounding its accounting for complex financial instruments as well as its accounting for income taxes. This was accomplished through enhanced analyses by our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting and tax applications, including but not limited to, regular recurring communication and consultation with our qualified third-party tax professionals, and improved internal oversight and monitoring over these complex financial instruments and their implications to our financial statements. We will continue to remediate, monitor the design and effectiveness of these and other processes, procedures, and controls and make any further changes or determine and obtain any additional resources management deems appropriate. However, while we believe we implemented measures to remediate the material weaknesses, we cannot make assurances that such measures will be sufficient to remediate the control deficiencies that led to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting or to avoid potential future material weaknesses. If we are unable to maintain our existing internal controls over financial reporting, or if we identify any additional material weaknesses, the accuracy and timeliness of our financial reporting may be adversely affected. If we are unable to maintain effective internal controls, we may not have adequate, accurate or timely financial statements, and we may be unable to meet our reporting obligations as a public company. Failure to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, when and as applicable, could also potentially subject us to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities. Furthermore, if we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and results of operations could be harmed and investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information. Our operations are subject to inherent risks, some of which are beyond our control. These risks may be self-insured or may not be fully covered under our insurance policies, but to the extent not covered, are self-insured by us. Our operations are subject to hazards inherent in the oil and natural gas industry, such as, but not limited to, accidents, blowouts, explosions, fires and oil spills. These conditions can cause: ●Personal injury or loss of life; ●Damage to or destruction of property, equipment and the environment; and ●Suspension of operations by our customers. The occurrence of a significant event or adverse claim in excess of the insurance coverage that we maintain or that is not covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, claims for loss of oil and natural gas production and damage to formations can occur in the well services industry. Litigation arising from a catastrophic occurrence at a location where our equipment and services are being used may result in us being named as a defendant in lawsuits asserting large claims. We maintain insurance coverage that we believe to be customary in the industry against these hazards. We do not have insurance against all foreseeable risks, either because insurance is not available or because of the high premium costs. The occurrence of an event not fully insured against, or the failure of an insurer to meet its insurance obligations, could result in substantial losses to us. In addition, we may not be able to maintain adequate insurance in the future at reasonable rates. Insurance may not be available to cover any or all the risks to which we are subject, or, even if available, it may be inadequate, or insurance premiums or other costs could rise significantly in the future so as to make such insurance prohibitively expensive. It is likely that, in our insurance renewals, our premiums and deductibles will be higher, and certain insurance coverage either will be unavailable or considerably more expensive than it has been in the recent past. In addition, our insurance is subject to coverage limits, and some policies exclude coverage for damages resulting from environmental contamination. 13 We are involved in securities litigation, and an adverse resolution of such litigation may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In May 2022 we became the subject of a lawsuit alleging that the Company and certain of its officers violated securities laws in relation to certain of its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed in 2021 which required amendments and restatements to such filings. On March 4, 2024, the United States District Court of Colorado dismissed the May 2022 class action complaint filed against the Company and two current or former officers. The Court granted the Company's February 2023 motion of dismissal and dismissed the class action lawsuit against the Company and certain of our current and former officers without prejudice. On March 21, 2024, the Company was informed by the plaintiff's attorney that no appeal will be filed and the class action complaint is considered dismissed without prejudice as of that date. Compliance with climate change legislation or initiatives could negatively impact our business. The United States Congress has considered legislation to mandate reductions of greenhouse gas emissions and certain states have already implemented, or may be in the process of implementing, similar legislation. Additionally, the United States Supreme Court has held in its decisions that carbon dioxide can be regulated as an "air pollutant" under the Clean Air Act, which could result in future regulations even if the United States Congress does not adopt new legislation regarding emissions. At this time, it is not possible to predict how legislation or new federal or state government mandates regarding the emission of greenhouse gases could impact our business; however, any such future laws or regulations could require us or our customers to devote potentially material amounts of capital or other resources in order to comply with such regulations. These expenditures could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Anti-fracking initiatives and revisions of applicable state regulations could adversely impact our business. Some states (including Colorado) and certain municipalities have regulated, or are considering regulating fracking which, if accomplished, could impact certain of our operations. There can be no assurance that these actions, if taken on a wider scale, may not adversely impact our business operations and revenues. Increased public concern over ESG matters may impact our business. Increasing attention to climate change, increasing societal expectations on companies to address climate change, and potential consumer use of substitutes to fossil-fuel energy commodities may result in increased costs, reduced demand for our customers’ hydrocarbon products and our products and services, reduced profits, increased governmental investigations and private litigation against us, and negative impacts on our stock price and access to capital markets. Increasing attention to climate change and environmental conservation, for example, may result in demand shifts for our customers’ hydrocarbon products and additional governmental investigations and private litigation against those customers. To the extent that societal pressures or political or other factors are involved, it is possible that such liability could be imposed without regard to our causation of or contribution to the asserted damage, or to other mitigating factors. Our ability to use our net operating loss carryforwards is subject to limitation and may result in increased future tax liability. The Company has $45.8 million of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs"). The Company estimates that $18.6 million of federal and $7.4 million of state net operating losses will expire unused due to 382 limitations beginning in 2035. On March 28, 2023, Cross River converted approximately $1.1 million principal amount of the March 2022 Convertible Note into 2,275,000 shares of Company common stock. On June 30, 2023, Cross River: 1) converted the remaining $148,950 principal balance of the March 2022 Convertible Note into 322,402 shares of Company common stock; 2) converted the entire $1,200,000 principal balance of the July 2022 Convertible Note into 2,400,000 shares of Company common stock; and 3) received a five-year warrant to acquire 2,400,000 shares of Company common stock with an exercise price of $0.55 per share. The conversion of the November 2022 Convertible Note would likely cause a change of control within the Code which would negatively impact our ability to utilize the NOLs going forward to offset future taxable income. Sections 382 and 383 of the Code contain rules that limit the ability of a corporation that undergoes a change in control to utilize its NOLs and certain built-in losses recognized in years after the change in control. A change in control is generally defined as any change in ownership of more than 50% of a corporation’s stock over a rolling three-year period by stockholders that own (directly or indirectly) 5% or more of the stock of the corporation or arising from a new issuance of stock by the corporation. Limitations on the use of NOLs and other tax attributes could also increase our state tax liabilities. The use of our tax attributes will also be limited to the extent that we do not generate positive taxable income in future tax periods. As a result of these limitations, we may be unable to offset future taxable income, if any, with NOLs before such NOLs expire. Accordingly, these limitations may increase our federal and state income tax liabilities. Improvements in, or new discoveries of, alternative energy technologies could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Because our operations depend on the demand for oil and used oil, any improvement in or new discoveries of alternative energy technologies (such as wind, solar, geothermal, fuel cells and biofuels) that increase the use of alternative forms of energy and reduce the demand for oil, gas and oil and gas related products could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Competition due to advances in renewable fuels may lessen the demand for our products and negatively impact our profitability. Alternatives to petroleum-based products and production methods are continually under development. For example, a number of automotive, industrial and power generation manufacturers are developing alternative clean power systems using fuel cells or clean-burning gaseous fuels that may address increasing worldwide energy costs, the long-term availability of petroleum reserves and environmental concerns which, if successful, could lower the demand for oil and gas. If these non-petroleum-based products and oil alternatives continue to expand and gain broad acceptance such that the overall demand for oil and gas is decreased, it could have an adverse effect on our operations and the value of our assets. 14 Risks Related to Our Common Stock We have no plans to pay dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future. Stockholders may not receive funds without selling their shares. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to pay down debt and finance the expansion of our business. Our future dividend policy is within the discretion of our Board of Directors ("Board") and will depend upon various factors, including our business, financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and investment opportunities. Accordingly, realization of a gain on a shareholder’s investment will depend on the appreciation of the price of our common stock. Our Board of Directors can, without stockholder approval, cause preferred stock to be issued on terms that adversely affect holders of our common stock. Under our certificate of incorporation, our Board is authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, of which none are issued and outstanding as of the date of this Annual Report. Also, our Board, without stockholder approval, may determine the price, rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting rights, of those shares. If our Board causes shares of preferred stock to be issued, the rights of the holders of our common stock would likely be subordinate to those of preferred holders and therefore could be adversely affected. Our Board’s ability to determine the terms of preferred stock and to cause its issuance, while providing desirable flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire a majority of our outstanding common stock. Preferred shares issued by our Board could include voting rights or super voting rights, which could shift the ability to control the Company to the holders of the preferred stock. Preferred stock could also have conversion rights into shares of our common stock at a discount to the market price of our common stock, which could negatively affect the market for our common stock. In addition, preferred stock would have preference in the event of liquidation of the corporation, which means that the holders of preferred stock would be entitled to receive the net assets of the corporation distributed in liquidation before the holders of our common stock receive any distribution of the liquidated assets. The price of our common stock may be volatile regardless of our operating performance and you may not be able to resell shares of our common stock at or above the price you paid, or at all. The trading price of our common stock may be volatile, and a stockholder may not be able to resell their shares at or above the price at which such stockholder paid for such shares. Our stock price volatility can be in response to a number of factors, including those listed in this section and elsewhere in this Annual Report. As a company in the oil services sector, there can be significant trading volume and volatility in our common stock that may be unrelated to our operating performance and more related to fluctuations and trading in oil-related public companies as a whole. Many of these volatility factors are beyond our control. Other factors that may affect the market price of our common stock include: ●Actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly results of operations; ●Liquidity; ●Our inability to raise capital; ●Sales of our common stock by us or our stockholders; ●Fluctuations and higher trading volume related to being in the oil services sector; ●Changes in oil and natural gas prices; ●Changes in our cash flow from operations or earnings estimates; ●Publication of research reports about us or the oil and natural gas exploration, production and service industry, generally; ●Competition from other oil and gas service companies and for, among other things, capital and skilled personnel; ●Increases in market interest rates which may increase our cost of capital; ●Changes in applicable laws or regulations, court rulings, and enforcement and legal actions; ●Changes in market valuations of similar companies; ●Adverse market reaction to any indebtedness we may incur in the future; ●Additions or departures of key management personnel; ●Actions by our stockholders; ●Commencement of or outcome of any significant litigation; ●News reports relating to trends, concerns, technological or competitive developments, regulatory changes, and other related issues in our industry; ●Speculation in the press or investment community regarding our business; ●Political conditions in oil and natural gas producing regions; ●General market and economic conditions; ●Domestic and international economic, legal, and regulatory factors unrelated to our performance; and ●Our ability to comply with NYSE American continued listing standards. In addition, the United States securities markets have experienced significant price and volume fluctuations over the past several years. These fluctuations often have been unrelated to the operating performance of companies in these markets. Market fluctuations and broad market, economic and industry factors may negatively affect the price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. Any volatility or a significant decrease in the market price of our common stock could also negatively affect our ability to make acquisitions using our common stock. Further, if we were to be the object of securities class action litigation as a result of volatility in our common stock price or for other reasons, it could result in substantial costs and diversion of our management’s attention and resources, which could negatively affect our financial results. 15 We may be required to raise additional financing by issuing new securities, which may have terms or rights superior to those of our shares of common stock, which could adversely affect the market price of our shares of common stock. We may need to raise additional funds for working capital and other purposes, including to finance acquisitions or develop strategic relationships, by issuing equity or convertible debt securities, which would reduce the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders. Our board of directors has the authority, without action or vote of the stockholders, to issue all or any part of our authorized but unissued shares of common or preferred stock. Our articles of incorporation authorize us to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Future issuances of common or preferred stock would reduce your influence over matters on which stockholders vote and would be dilutive to earnings per share. In addition, any newly issued preferred stock could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of the common stock. Those rights, preferences and privileges could include, among other things, the establishment of dividends that must be paid prior to declaring or paying dividends or other distributions to holders of our common stock or providing for preferential liquidation rights. These rights, preferences and privileges could negatively affect the rights of holders of our common stock, and the right to convert such preferred stock into shares of our common stock at a rate or price that would have a dilutive effect on the outstanding shares of our common stock. Our executive chairman and CEO beneficially owns a significant amount of our outstanding common stock and has substantial control over us. As of March 12, 2024, Richard Murphy, our Executive Chairman and CEO, and his affiliated entity Cross River, beneficially own in the aggregate approximately 25.85% of our common stock, or approximately 34.50% including convertible debt and warrants exercisable within 60 days. As a result, if acting together, Mr. Murphy will be able to exercise significant influence over all matters requiring approval by our shareholders, including the election of directors and the approval of significant corporate transactions, such as a merger or other sale of our company or assets. Mr. Murphy may also have interests that differ from yours and may vote in a way with which you disagree, which may be adverse to your interests. In addition, to the extent Cross River acquires additional shares pursuant to the conversion of its outstanding convertible notes, the ability of Mr. Murphy, acting together, to control or significantly influence such matters will increase. This concentration of ownership could limit your ability to influence corporate matters and may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of our company. This could prevent transactions in which shareholders might otherwise recover a premium for their shares over current market prices. The liquidity and market price of our common stock may decline significantly if we are unable to maintain our NYSE American listing. Our common stock is currently listed on the NYSE American. The NYSE American will consider suspending dealings in, or delisting, securities of an issuer that does not meet its continued listing standards. If we cannot meet the NYSE American continued listing requirements, the NYSE American may delist our common stock, which could have an adverse impact on us and the liquidity and market price of our common stock. In December 2022, the Company received an official notice of noncompliance from the NYSE American stating that the Company’s stockholders’ equity as reported in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2022 was not in compliance with the continued listing standards under Section 1003(a)(iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide (“Company Guide”), which requires that a listed company’s stockholders’ equity be at least $6.0 million if it has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in its five most recent fiscal years. On January 10, 2023, the Company submitted a plan (the “Plan”) advising of actions it will take to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by June 9, 2024, which Plan was accepted by the NYSE on February 14, 2023. On May 2, 2023, the Company received notice from the NYSE that its stockholders' equity balance as of December 31, 2022 had fallen below $2.0 million and therefore the Company was not in compliance with the NYSE American's continued listing standards under Section 1003(a)(i) in the Company Guide. The Company is taking steps to achieve compliance with the stockholders' equity standards of Section 1003(a) of the Company Guide by June 9, 2024. On March 28, 2023, Cross River converted approximately $1.1 million principal amount of the March 2022 Convertible Note into 2,275,000 shares of Company common stock. On June 30, 2023, Cross River: 1) converted the remaining $148,950 principal balance of the March 2022 Convertible Note into 322,402 shares of Company common stock; 2) converted the entire $1,200,000 principal balance of the July 2022 Convertible Note into 2,400,000 shares of Company common stock; and 3) received a five-year warrant to acquire 2,400,000 shares of Company common stock with an exercise price of $0.55 per share. The Company is working towards regaining compliance with the stockholders' equity continued listing standards of the NYSE American; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will ultimately regain compliance with all applicable NYSE American listing standards. If we are unable to retain compliance with the NYSE American criteria for continued listing, our common stock would be subject to delisting. A delisting of our common stock could negatively impact us by, among other things, reducing the liquidity and market price of our common stock; reducing the number of investors willing to hold or acquire our common stock, which could negatively impact our ability to raise equity financing; limiting our ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future; decreasing the amount of news and analyst coverage of us; and causing us reputational harm with investors, our employees, and parties conducting business with us. If our common stock is delisted, our common stock may be subject to the so-called "penny stock" rules. The SEC has adopted regulations that define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price per share of less than $5.00, subject to certain exceptions, such as any securities listed on a national securities exchange. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules impose additional sales practice requirements and burdens on broker-dealers (subject to certain exceptions) and could discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our stock, further limiting the liquidity of our shares, and an investor may find it more difficult to acquire or dispose of our common stock on the secondary market. These factors could have a material adverse effect on the trading price, liquidity, value and marketability of our common stock. Provisions in our charter documents could prevent or delay a change in control or a takeover. Provisions in our bylaws provide certain requirements for the nomination of directors which preclude a stockholder from nominating a candidate to stand for election at any annual meeting. As described in Section 2.12 of the Company’s bylaws, nominations must be presented to the Company well in advance of a scheduled annual meeting and the notification must include specific information as set forth in that section. The Company believes that such a provision provides reasonable notice of the nominees to the Board, but it may preclude stockholder nomination at a meeting where the stockholder is not familiar with nomination procedures and, therefore, may prevent or delay a change of control or takeover. Although the Delaware General Corporation Law includes §112 which provides that bylaws of Delaware corporations may require the corporation to include in its proxy materials one or more nominees submitted by stockholders in addition to individuals nominated by the Board, the bylaws of the Company do not so provide. As a result, if any stockholder desires to nominate persons for election to the Board, the proponent will have to incur all the costs normally associated with a proxy contest. 16 General Risk Factors Indemnification of officers and directors may result in unanticipated expenses. The Delaware General Corporation Law, our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws, and indemnification agreements between the Company and certain individuals provide for the indemnification of our directors, officers, employees, and agents, under certain circumstances, against attorney’s fees and other expenses incurred by them in any litigation to which they become a party arising from their association with us or activities on our behalf. We also will bear the expenses of such litigation for any of our directors, officers, employees, or agents, upon such person’s promise to repay them if it is ultimately determined that any such person shall not have been entitled to indemnification. This indemnification policy could result in substantial expenditures by us that we may be unable to recoup and could direct funds away from our business and products (if any). We have significant obligations under the 1934 Act and the NYSE American. Because we are a public company filing reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we are subject to increased regulatory scrutiny and extensive and complex regulation. The SEC has the right to review the accuracy and completeness of our reports, press releases, and other public documents. In addition, we are subject to extensive requirements to institute and maintain financial accounting controls and for the accuracy and completeness of our books and records. In addition to regulation by the SEC, we are subject to the NYSE American rules. The NYSE American rules contain requirements with respect to corporate governance, communications with shareholders, and various other matters. The cost of compliance with many of these requirements is substantial, not only in absolute terms but, more importantly, in relation to the overall scope of the operations of a small company. Failure to comply with these requirements can have numerous adverse consequences, including, but not limited to, our inability to file required periodic reports on a timely basis, loss of market confidence, delisting of our securities and/or governmental or private actions against us. We cannot make assurances that we will be able to comply with all of these requirements or that the cost of such compliance will not prove to be a substantial competitive disadvantage as compared with privately held and larger public competitors. 17 ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS None. ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY Risk Management and Strategy Our cybersecurity strategy prioritizes detection, analysis, and response to mitigate unknown and unexpected threats and security risks. Our cybersecurity risk management processes include technical security controls, monitoring systems, employee training, and management oversight to assess, identify, and manage risks from cybersecurity threats. We have implemented a cybersecurity awareness program which covers topics such as phishing, social networking safety, password security and mobile device usage. We have mandatory training in the areas of cybersecurity, privacy, and confidential information handling. To date, we have not experienced any cybersecurity threats or incidents which have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition, but we cannot provide assurance that they will not have a material impact in the future. See “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of this Annual Report for additional information about our cybersecurity risks. Also as part of our cybersecurity program, we partner with a third-party information technology firm to support and evaluate our cybersecurity and informational security program. This third-party service includes product and software security for data protection and cyber defense, to monitor, detect, prevent, and protect our Company against potential cybersecurity threats. Governance Our Board of Directors has overall responsibility for risk oversight in performing this function. Our Board of Directors assesses cybersecurity and information technology risks and the controls implemented to monitor and mitigate these risks. Our cybersecurity program is overseen by our Health, Safety, and Environmental Director, who has been a Heat Waves employee for over five years and has been in charge of our data protection and product and software security and compliance initiatives for the past several years. Our HSE Director meets regularly with the Board of Directors to share information about potential cybersecurity events and monitor, prevent, and detect potential cybersecurity incidents. The Board of Directors is charged with reviewing our cybersecurity processes for assessing key strategic, operational, and compliance risks. The Board of Directors also discusses relevant incidents in the industry and the evolving threat landscape. ITEM 2.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On May 22, 2022, Ali Safe, acting individually and on behalf of others, filed a class action complaint in United States District Court for the District of Colorado alleging that the Company and certain of its officers violated securities laws in relation to certain of its SEC Form 10-Q filings in 2021 which required amendments and restatements to such filings. On November 28, 2022, the plaintiff amended their complaint primarily to add Jan Lambert as lead plaintiff and to include Cross River Partners, L.P. and Cross River Capital Management, LLC as defendants. On February 10, 2023, the Company filed a motion in the United State District Court of Colorado to dismiss the class action complaint. On March 4, 2024, the United States District Court of Colorado dismissed the May 2022 class action complaint filed against the Company and two current or former officers. The Court's order dismissed the claims against the Company and certain of our current and former officers and granted the Company's February 2023 motion to dismiss the class action complaint without prejudice. On March 21, 2024, the Company was informed by the plaintiff's attorney that no appeal will be filed and the class action complaint is considered dismissed without prejudice as of that date. ITEM 4.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion provides information regarding the results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and our financial condition, liquidity and capital resources as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report, which contain further detailed information, as well as the section of this Annual Report titled "Risk Factors." Please also refer to the section under the heading “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” OVERVIEW The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Heat Waves Hot Oil Service LLC ("Heat Waves"), provides various services to the domestic onshore oil and natural gas industry through two segments: 1) Production Services, which include hot oiling and acidizing; and 2) Completion and Other Services, which includes frac water heating and other services. The Company owns and operates a fleet of specialized trucks, trailers, frac tanks and other well-site related equipment and serves customers in several major domestic oil and gas producing areas, including the DJ Basin/Niobrara area in Colorado and Wyoming, the San Juan Basin in northwestern New Mexico, the Marcellus and Utica Shale areas in Pennsylvania and Ohio, the Jonah area, Green River and Powder River Basins in Wyoming, and the Eagle Ford Shale and East Texas Oilfield in Texas. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Executive Summary Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023 were comparable to revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company's revenues generated from completions activity were strong during the first and fourth quarters of 2023, which were primarily the result of increased volume due to favorable weather conditions in the first quarter of 2023, coupled with the implementation of price increases for these services in the fourth quarter of 2023, most notably in our Colorado region. While year-over-year increases to our completions activity revenues were largely offset by decreases in our production services segment revenues, annual revenues and demand for our production services continued to be strong in 2023, despite the absence of revenues from the Bakken area in North Dakota, which was a historically unprofitable market for the Company and a region that the Company strategically ceased operations in and exited from during 2023. Total segment profit for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased by $870,000, or 61%, compared to the same period last year, due to the reasons mentioned above coupled with our continued efforts to reduce labor costs and downtime during our off-season months, again most notably in our Colorado region. Sales, general and administrative expenses decreased by $421,000, or 9%, from the comparable period last year. This decrease was primarily due to a year-over-year decrease in stock-based compensation costs relating to a one-time equity award issued to our Chief Financial Officer during the prior year. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased by $738,000, or 53%, from the comparable period last year. This increase was attributable to a full year of interest expense incurred in 2023 in connection with our 2022 Financing Facilities, as well as continued upward movement of interest rates throughout the course of 2023. Total other (expense) income, net for the year ended December 31, 2023 was an expense of $2.0 million compared to $2.8 million of other income for the year ended December 31, 2022. This year-over-year increase in total other expense of $4.8 million was primarily due to a non-reoccurring gain on debt extinguishment of $4.3 million recognized during the prior year, as well as the current year increase in interest expense discussed above. Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $8.5 million, or a loss of $0.42 per share, compared to a net loss of $5.6 million, or a loss of $0.48 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2022. This increase in net loss of $2.9 million, or 53%, was primarily due to the non-reoccurrence of a prior year $4.3 million gain on debt extinguishment as well as current year impairments related to goodwill and long-lived assets in the aggregate amount of $796,000, partially offset by improvements in our segment profits, and lower depreciation and amortization and sales, general and administrative expenses. Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2023 was a loss of $1.5 million compared to a loss of $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. This improvement in Adjusted EBITDA was due to a year-over-year increase in our segment profits, coupled with the year-over-year decrease in our sales, general and administrative expenses (net of stock-based compensation costs). Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure in net income (loss) see "Adjusted EBITDA" below. Industry Overview Beginning in early February of 2022, the market experienced a sharp increase in oil and gas prices following the Russia-Ukraine conflict, resulting in gasoline prices reaching a national average of $5.00 per gallon in June 2022. West Texas Intermediate ("WTI") crude oil prices averaged $77.58 per barrel in 2023, versus an average of $94.90 per barrel in 2022. Average domestic rig count decreased by 5% from 723 average rigs in operation during the year ended December 31, 2022 to 687 average rigs in operation during the year ended December 31, 2023. The domestic rig count decreased to 622 rigs in operation as of December 31, 2023, compared to 779 rigs in operation at the same time a year ago. While demand for our services rebounded in 2022 and continued with strong demand throughout 2023, the Company has not yet returned to pre- pandemic activity levels. However, the Company took significant steps in improving its margins from 2022 to 2023, and we expect to see a continued demand for our services and continued oil and gas industry exploration and production activity levels in the oil and gas sector amidst a stable commodity price environment. The Company remains focused on increasing utilization levels and optimizing the deployment of our equipment and workforce while maintaining high standards for service quality and safe operations. We compete on the basis of our quality, modern fleet and equipment, breadth of our service offerings, competitive pricing, and broad service footprint. 20 Segment Overview Enservco’s reportable operating segments are Production Services and Completion and Other Services. These segments have been selected based on management’s resource allocation and performance assessment in making decisions regarding the Company. The following is a description of the segments. Production Services This segment utilizes a fleet of hot oiling trucks and acidizing units to provide maintenance services to the domestic oil and gas industry. These services include hot oiling services and acidizing services. Hot oiling is utilized by customers to remove paraffins from wellbores, pipes and vessels. Acidizing services are utilized by customers to clean reservoir surfaces and increase flow rates. Completion and Other Services This segment utilizes a fleet of specialized heating units to provide frac water heating services and related support services to the domestic oil and gas industry. These services also include other services for other industries, which consist primarily of hauling and transport of materials and heat treating for customers. Frac water heating is utilized by customers during the completion of oil and gas wells. Unallocated This segment includes general overhead expenses and assets associated with managing all reportable operating segments which have not been allocated to a specific segment. Segment Results The following tables set forth revenues from operations and segment profits for our operating segments for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands): Revenues: Production services Completion and other services Total revenues Segment profit: Production services Completion and other services Total segment profit Production Services For the Year Ended December 31, 2023 2022 10,526 $ 11,532 22,058 $ For the Year Ended December 31, 2023 2022 1,320 $ 965 2,285 $ 11,211 10,433 21,644 677 738 1,415 $ $ $ $ Production Services segment revenues, which accounted for 48% of total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023, decreased by $685,000, or 6%, to $10.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. This decrease was primarily attributable to the Company's strategic decision to cease operations in the North Dakota region, combined with a decrease in hot oiling activity in the Colorado and Pennsylvania regions, partially offset by an increase in hot oiling activities in our Texas regions. As a result of the sustained crude oil prices during 2023, we have worked with our customers and have been successful in implementing price increases for our hot oiling services that are reflected in our increased production services revenues. Hot oiling revenues decreased by $829,000, or 8%, to $9.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. This decrease was attributable to the reasons discussed above for Production Services segment revenues. Acidizing revenues increased by $145,000, or 19%, to $924,000 for the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was primarily attributable to increased activity levels in our Texas region and continued demand for this service line, as well as our continued efforts to pursue customers and partner with chemical suppliers to develop new cost-effective acid programs. Production Services segment profit increased by $643,000, or 95%, to $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. This year-over-year increase in segment profit was primary attributable to a current year improvement in cost control measures for the Production Services segment, which resulted in decreased labor, propane, fuel, and overhead costs during 2023. Completion and Other Services Completion and Other Services segment revenues, which accounted for 52% of total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023, increased by $1.1 million, or 11%, to $11.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was primarily due to strong completions activity volume realized during the first quarter of 2023, coupled with the impacts of price increases for these services in the fourth quarter of 2023, most notably in our Colorado region. Completion and Other Services segment profit increased by $227,000, or 31%, for the year ended December 31, 2023. This increased segment profit was attributable to the reasons discussed above for Completion and Other Services segment revenues, combined with stricter cost control measures over variable costs during 2023 compared to 2022. 21 Historical Seasonality of Revenues Due to the seasonality of our frac water heating business and, to a lesser extent, our hot oiling business, revenues generated during the cooler first and fourth quarters of our fiscal year constitute our "heating season" and are typically significantly higher than revenues during the second and third quarters of our fiscal year. In addition, the revenue mix of our service offerings change outside our heating season as our Completion and Other Services (which includes frac water heating) typically decrease as a percentage of total revenues and our Production Services increase as a percentage of total revenues. Thus, the revenues recognized in our quarterly financial statements in any given period are not indicative of the annual or quarterly revenues that should be expected throughout the remainder of that fiscal year. As an illustration of this quarter-to-quarter revenue seasonality, the Company generated 70% of its fiscal year 2023 and 2022 revenues during the first and fourth quarters of each respective year. Direct Operating Expenses Direct operating expenses for our operating segments, which include labor costs, propane, fuel, chemicals, truck repairs and maintenance, supplies, registration, insurance, short-term rental costs and site overhead costs, were consistent year-over-year. Sales, General and Administrative Expenses Sales, general and administrative expenses decreased by $421,000, or 9%, from the comparable period last year. This decrease was primarily due to a current year decrease in stock-based compensation costs related primarily to a one-time equity award issued to our Chief Financial Officer during the prior year. Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $693,000, or 16%, year-over-year, due to the selling and disposing of certain idle trucks and vehicles within our property and equipment during 2023, which created a smaller depreciable base on which our depreciation expense is calculated. Severance and Transition Costs During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized minimal severance and transitions costs. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized severance and transition costs of $303,000, due to the severance agreement related to the resignation of a former Chief Financial Officer in the second quarter of 2022. Loss from Operations For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized a loss from operations of $6.6 million compared to a loss from operations of $8.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decreased loss of $1.8 million was primarily due to a $870,000 year-over-year increase in our segment profit, combined with the items mentioned above. Interest Expense For the year ended December 31, 2023, interest expense was $2.1 million as compared to $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The year-over-year increase was attributed to incurring a full year of interest expense in 2023 from our 2022 Financing Facilities, as well as certain convertible promissory notes that we maintained throughout the current year period. Income Taxes The Company recognized $51,000 of deferred income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2023. No deferred income tax benefit or expense was recognized during the prior year. 22 Adjusted EBITDA Management believes that, for the reasons set forth below, Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) is a valuable measurement of the Company's liquidity and performance and is consistent with the measurements offered by other companies in Enservco's industry. The following table presents a reconciliation of our net loss to Adjusted EBITDA for years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands): Reconciliation from Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA Net loss Add back: Interest expense Deferred income tax benefit Depreciation and amortization EBITDA (non-GAAP) Add back (deduct): Stock-based compensation Severance and transition costs Non-recurring legal expense Bad debt recovery Impairment losses (Gain) loss on disposal of property and equipment Gain on debt extinguishment(1) Other (income) expense For the Year Ended December 31, 2023 2022 $ (8,517) $ 2,121 (51) 3,654 (2,793) 377 1 362 (50) 796 (16) - (157) (1,480) $ (5,575) 1,383 - 4,347 155 811 303 23 (94) - 300 (4,277) 59 (2,720) Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) ______________________________ (1) Relates to the Refinancing, as defined and described in Note 5 - Debt to the consolidated financial statements. $ Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Non-GAAP results are presented only as a supplement to the financial statements and for use within management’s discussion and analysis based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The non-GAAP financial information is provided to enhance the reader's understanding of the Company’s financial performance, but no non-GAAP measure should be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of the most directly comparable GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures are provided herein. EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes stock-based compensation expense from EBITDA and, when appropriate, other items that management does not utilize in assessing the Company’s ongoing operating performance as set forth in the next paragraph. None of these non-GAAP financial measures are recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be an alternative to net income (loss) as an indicator of operating performance or any other GAAP measure. All the items included in the reconciliation from net loss to EBITDA and from EBITDA to Adjusted EBITDA are either (i) non-cash items (e.g., depreciation, amortization of purchased intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, impairment losses, etc.) or (ii) items that management does not consider to be useful in assessing the Company’s ongoing operating performance (e.g., income taxes, gains or losses on sales of assets, acquisition-related expenses, severance and transition costs, other expense (income), etc.). In the case of the non-cash items, management believes that investors can better assess the Company’s operating performance if the measures are presented without such items because, unlike cash expenses, these adjustments do not affect the Company’s ability to generate free cash flow or invest in its business. We use, and we believe investors benefit from the presentation of, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in evaluating our operating performance because it provides us and our investors with an additional tool to compare our operating performance on a consistent basis by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect our core operations. We believe that EBITDA is useful to investors and other external users of our financial statements in evaluating our operating performance because EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as interest expense, taxes, and depreciation and amortization, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods and book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company’s presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. However, these measures can still be useful in evaluating the Company’s performance against its peer companies because management believes the measures provide users with valuable insight into key components of GAAP financial disclosures. Changes in Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA increased by $1.2 million, or 46%, to a loss of $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. This improvement in Adjusted EBITDA was due to a year-over-year increase in our segment profits, coupled with the year-over-year decrease in our sales, general and administrative expenses (net of stock-based compensation costs). 23 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Liquidity As of December 31, 2023, our available liquidity was $218,000. This was comprised of our cash and cash equivalents balance of $201,000, coupled with our availability of $17,000 under the LSQ Facility. Recent convertible notes (see Note 5 - Debt to the consolidated financial statements) have injected fresh sources of financing into the Company, which have improved our cash and overall financial position. Nonetheless, the Company will need to raise additional capital for its ongoing operations. As the Company seeks additional sources of financing, there can be no assurance that such financing would be available to the Company on favorable terms, or at all. The Company's ability to obtain additional financing in the debt and equity capital markets, whether public or private, is subject to several factors including market and economic conditions, the Company's performance, and investor sentiment with respect to the Company and its industry. Working Capital As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, we had working capital deficits of $4.3 million. Cash Flow The following table summarizes our statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and, combined with the working capital table and discussion below, is important for understanding our liquidity (in thousands): Net cash used in operating activities Net cash provided by investing activities Net cash provided by financing activities Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents, beginning of period Cash and cash equivalents, end of period Cash Flow from Operating Activities For the Year Ended December 31, 2023 2022 (2,150) $ 1,765 551 166 35 201 $ (2,246) 343 1,789 (114) 149 35 $ $ Cash used in operating activities was consistent for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. Cash Flow from Investing Activities Cash provided by investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $1.8 million compared to cash provided by investing activities of $343,000 for the year ended December 31, 2022. This increase in cash provided by investing activities of $1.4 million was due to current year proceeds from disposals of property and equipment significantly exceeding that of the prior year. Cash Flow from Financing Activities Cash provided by financing activities for year ended December 31, 2023 was $551,000 compared to cash provided by financing activities of $1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. This decrease in cash provided by financing activities of $1.2 million was primarily due to the year- over-year decrease in funds received by the Company in the form of convertible debt proceeds coming from related parties, partially offset by $3.0 million of net cash generated through the February 2023 Offering in the current year. 24 Overview We have funded our operations primarily with proceeds from borrowings under our various credit facilities as well as debt financing arrangements with related parties, proceeds from sales of our equity securities, cash generated from the sale of non-core or underperforming assets, and cash generated from operations. As of December 31, 2023, we had outstanding principal loan balances on our outstanding indebtedness of $8.7 million with a weighted average interest rate of 14.80% per year. On February 22, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the investors in a best-efforts public offering (i) 3,900,000 shares of Company common stock, (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,100,000 shares of Company common stock and (iii) common warrants to purchase 7,000,000 shares of Company common stock (the "February 2023 Offering"). The shares of common stock, or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof, and the common warrants were sold in units, with each unit consisting of one share of common stock or one pre-funded warrant in lieu thereof and one common warrant. Each unit comprised of common stock and common warrants were sold at a per unit price of $0.50. Each unit comprised of pre-funded warrants and common warrants were sold at a per unit price of $0.495, which represents the same per unit price less the $0.005 per share exercise price of the pre-funded warrants. The common warrants are exercisable at a price of $0.55 per share, and have a five-year term. The warrants issued in the February 2023 Offering had an estimated fair value of approximately $2.0 million. The net proceeds from the offering were $3.0 million, after deducting Placement Agent fees and other offering expenses. Offering expenses totaling $534,000 were charged to stockholders' equity and are recorded as a reduction of the proceeds from the February 2023 Offering. The Company used the net proceeds for general corporate purposes. On March 28, 2023, Cross River converted approximately $1.1 million principal amount of the March 2022 Convertible Note into 2,275,000 shares of Company common stock. On June 30, 2023, Cross River: 1) converted the remaining $148,950 principal balance of the March 2022 Convertible Note into 322,402 shares of Company common stock; 2) converted the entire $1,200,000 principal balance of the July 2022 Convertible Note into 2,400,000 shares of Company common stock; and 3) received a five-year warrant to acquire 2,400,000 shares of Company common stock with an exercise price of $0.55 per share. The warrants issued as part of the July 2022 Convertible Note conversion had an estimated fair value of $340,000. On September 1, 2023, the Company issued a convertible promissory note in the amount of $750,000 to Cross River and a convertible promissory note in the amount of $50,000 to Kevin Chesser (“Chesser”), a director of the Company. Also on September 11, 2023, pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement (the "Note Purchase Agreement"), Cross River and Chesser exchanged the previously issued September 1, 2023 convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amounts of $750,000 and $50,000, respectively, for new convertible promissory notes (the “September and October 2023 Convertible Notes”) with the same principal amounts. On the same date, pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company also issued September 2023 convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $125,000 to Angel Capital Partners, LP ("Angel Capital"), and in aggregate principal amount of $187,500 to Equigen, II, LLC ("Equigen"), an entity owned by Steven A. Weyel, a director of the Company. The September and October 2023 Convertible Notes have an eighteen-month term and accrue interest at 16.00% annually. The Company is required to make interest only payments on a quarterly basis at the end of each calendar quarter, beginning with the quarter ending December 31, 2023. The first quarterly interest payment is payable in shares of the Company’s common stock based on the five (5) day moving average of the closing sales price of the common stock on the NYSE American immediately prior to December 31, 2023. For calendar quarters beginning March 31, 2024, the Company is required to make quarterly interest payments in cash within ten (10) days of the close of the quarter. The September and October 2023 Convertible Notes may not be prepaid by the Company. The Note Purchase Agreement contains certain covenants, including a covenant that, without the written approval of the holders of greater than 75% of the principal amount of the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes, restricts the Company’s ability to (a) incur any debt which is senior or pari-passu to the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes, or (b) issue any new securities subject to certain exceptions. In October 2023, pursuant to the September 2023 Note Purchase Agreement, Cross River purchased an additional $150,000 of the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes and Richard Murphy, our Chief Executive Officer and Chair, purchased $100,000 of the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes. Also in October 2023, Equigen and Angel Capital contemporaneously purchased $187,500 and $125,000, respectively, in aggregate principal amount of the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes. Class Action Litigation On May 22, 2022, Ali Safe, acting individually and on behalf of others, filed a class action complaint in United States District Court for the District of Colorado alleging that the Company and certain of its officers violated securities laws in relation to certain of its SEC Form 10-Q filings in 2021 which required amendments and restatements to such filings. On November 28, 2022, the plaintiff amended their complaint primarily to add Jan Lambert as lead plaintiff, and to include Cross River Partners, L.P. and Cross River Capital Management, LLC as defendants. On February 10, 2023, the Company filed a motion in the United State District Court of Colorado to dismiss the class action complaint, citing a lack of specific facts and evidence brought by the plaintiffs in alleging the Company and certain of its officers committed securities fraud. On March 4, 2024, the United States District Court of Colorado dismissed the May 2022 class action complaint filed against the Company and two current or former officers. The Court's order dismissed the claims against the Company and certain of our current and former officers and granted the Company's February 2023 motion to dismiss the class action complaint without prejudice. On March 21, 2024, the Company was informed by the plaintiff's attorney that no appeal will be filed and the class action complaint is considered dismissed without prejudice as of that date. Outlook Our business is heavily dependent on domestic oil and gas exploration and production activity levels which fluctuate based on energy commodity prices, weather that affects customer demand for our frac water heating business, capital budgets, and other factors. We continue to seek opportunities to expand our business operations through organic growth, including increasing the volume of current services offered to our new and existing customers and relocating more of our equipment to increase utilization. We will also continue to expand our customer relationships while maintaining an appropriate balance between recurring maintenance work and drilling and completion related services. Management currently believes we will continue to have an opportunity to improve and enhance our reputation, and to provide competitive services to our customers and improve our operating efficiency. Over the past several years we have invested significantly in process improvement initiatives designed to make the Company operate more efficiently and take better advantage of our expanded fleet and a national leadership position in hot oiling, acidizing and frac water heating. We faced a very difficult operating environment during much of 2021, which improved throughout 2022 and stabilized in 2023. While crude oil prices and active domestic oil rigs remained steady throughout 2023, average domestic rig counts continue to be 25% below pre-pandemic levels. Additionally, E&P companies have continued their recent focus on improving free cash flow, debt reduction, and capital discipline, to the detriment of drilling activity levels even as crude oil prices rose above $100 per barrel. Sustained oil prices, influenced in part by the war in Ukraine, and a relatively stable active domestic rig count, have resulted in consistent demand for the Company’s services in recent months when compared to the year. However, the demand for oil remains uncertain given global political tensions, uneven worldwide economic recovery and significant cost inflation un the United States. While increases in oil prices generally correlates with an increase in demand for the Company’s services, uncertainties regarding global political tensions, wars, inflation, and interest rates could have a negative impact in the Company’s 2024 performance. Capital Commitments and Obligations Our capital commitments and obligations as of December 31, 2023 consist primarily of the 2022 Financing Facilities and various other promissory notes. In addition, we also have scheduled principal payments under certain term loans, debt obligations, finance leases and operating leases. General terms and conditions for amounts due under these commitments and obligations are summarized in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. 25 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make a variety of estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and (ii) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods covered by the financial statements. Our management routinely makes judgments and estimates about the impact of matters that are inherently uncertain. As the number of variables and assumptions affecting the future resolution of the uncertainties increase, these judgments become even more subjective and complex. Although we believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in estimates and assumptions based upon actual results may have a material impact on our results of operation and/or financial condition. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Developments included in Item 8 of this Annual Report. While all the significant accounting estimates are important to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, the following accounting policies and the estimates derived there from have been identified as being critical. Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews its long-lived assets, including property and equipment and goodwill, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (i.e. "triggering events") indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recovered. If a triggering event has been identified, the Company looks primarily to the undiscounted future cash flows in its assessment of whether or not long-lived assets have been impaired. Revenue Recognition The Company evaluates revenue when we can identify the contract with the customer, the performance obligations in the contract, the transaction price, and we are certain that the performance obligations have been met. Revenue is recognized when the service has been provided to the customer. The vast majority of the Company's services and product offerings are short-term in nature. The time between invoicing and when payment is due under these arrangements is generally thirty to sixty days. Revenue is not generated from contractual arrangements that include multiple performance obligations. The Company’s agreements with its customers are often referred to as "price sheets" and sometimes provide pricing for multiple services. However, these agreements generally do not authorize the performance of specific services or provide for guaranteed throughput amounts. As customers are free to choose which services, if any, to use based on the Company’s price sheet, the Company prices its separate services on the basis of their standalone selling prices. Customer agreements generally do not provide for performance, cancellation, termination, or refund type provisions. Services based on price sheets with customers are generally performed under separately issued "work orders" or "field tickets" as services are requested. Revenue is recognized for certain projects over time based on the number of days during the reporting period and the agreed upon price as work progresses on each project. Classification and Valuation of Warrants The Company analyzes warrant instruments under ASC 480-10, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, to determine the classification of the warrants. More specifically, the Company determines if the warrant contains any special redemption features or is subject to derivative accounting rules. None of the Company's issued warrants meet any of these criteria and are all classified as permanent equity. The Company uses a Black-Scholes model to determine the fair value of warrants. The expected term used was the remaining contractual term. Expected volatility is based upon historical volatility over a term consistent with the remaining term. The risk-free interest rate is derived from the yield on zero-coupon United States government securities with a remaining term equal to the contractual term of the warrants. The dividend yield is assumed to be zero. Going Concern The Company utilizes a cash forecast model to evaluate the ability of future cash flows to fund continuing operations. The Company analyzes projected cash flows to determine if they are sufficient to fund the operations and obligations of the Company for a period of time that extends twelve months or more from the date of the applicable filing. The Company has determined that substantial doubt exists that the Company has the ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year following the date of issuance of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK We are a smaller reporting company as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information under this Item. 26 ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ENSERVCO CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (Pannell Kerr Forster of Texas, P.C., PCAOB ID: 342) Financial Statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022: Consolidated Balance Sheets Consolidated Statements of Operations Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 27 Page 33 29 30 31 32 33 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Enservco Corporation Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Enservco Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a significant working capital deficiency, has recurring losses and needs to raise additional funds to meet its obligations and sustain its operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Basis for Opinion These Consolidated Financial Statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Consolidated Financial Statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the Consolidated Financial Statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matters The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate. Impairment Assessment over Long-lived Assets - Refer to Notes 2 and 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements Critical Audit Matter Description The Company's long-lived assets were $50.5 million and related accumulated depreciation and amortization was $43.6 million as of December 31, 2023 ($6.9 million, net). As discussed in the Company’s accounting policy in Note 2, long-lived assets (asset groups) with finite lives are reviewed for impairment whenever indicators of impairment exist. Management evaluated its asset groups taking into consideration the nature of its business and qualitative aspects of the Company and using segment undiscounted cashflows for current period operations and a 2024 forecast of segment profits and determined that through this approach there were no triggering events present as of December 31, 2023. We identified the Company's impairment assessment over long-lived assets as a critical audit matter. Auditing the Company’s impairment assessment involved a high degree of subjectivity in determining significant assumptions included in the Company’s undiscounted cash flow model, which include management’s estimates related to forecasted future growth rates, gross margin to cover costs, and demand for services. How the Critical Audit Matter was Addressed in the Audit Our audit procedures performed to address this critical audit matter included the following, among others: ● We evaluated the reasonableness of the Company’s undiscounted cash flow model used in the qualitative impairment assessment by evaluating the significant assumptions used to develop the projected future cash flows of the asset groups, tested the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used by the Company, performed a comparison of historical activity to forecasted activity, and considered positive and negative evidence impacting management’s forecasts. ● We tested the mechanical accuracy of the amounts and formulas included in the Company’s undiscounted cash flow assessment and agreed long-lived asset balances to the Company’s consolidated general ledger. ● We performed sensitivity analyses to evaluate the changes in the future cash flows that could result from changes in the assumptions. Complex Debt and Equity Transactions Refer to Notes 5 and 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements Critical Audit Matter Description From time to time, the Company enters into debt and equity transactions some of which have highly complex terms and features that impact classification within the financial statements and may require fair value estimation. Consideration is given to the nature of the instrument, term, warrant features, the accounting treatment related to conversion options and estimates of fair value and related fair value models used to estimate fair value when appropriate. We identified the Company's accounting for debt and equity transactions as a critical audit matter. Auditing the Company’s accounting for debt and equity transactions involved a high degree of subjectivity in determining significant assumptions included in the Company’s assessments and estimates of fair value. How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit Our audit procedures performed to address this critical audit matter included the following, among others: ● We obtained an understanding of management’s process to identify within debt and equity transactions and imbedded features that may require separate accounting considerations and or bifurcations. We also evaluated the appropriateness of fair value models used such as Black Scholes. ● We reviewed copies of the executed agreements and underlying board minutes to ensure an appropriate understanding of key terms and provisions. We determined through review whether classification was appropriate. ● We evaluated the methodology used by management to determine fair value. ● We tested the inputs used in the fair valued model to ensure accuracy and reperformed calculations included within the estimates for mathematical accuracy. ● We examined the accounting treatment, presentation and classification of each debt and equity transaction and related disclosures to ensure accuracy and completeness. We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2022. /s/ Pannell Kerr Forster of Texas, P.C.

These services include hot oiling and acidizing ("Production Services") and frac water heating ("Completion and Other Services"). The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been derived from the accounting records of Enservco Corporation and its wholly- owned subsidiary, Heat Waves Hot Oil Service LLC ("Heat Waves"), (collectively, the "Company") as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 and the results of operations for the years then ended. The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. 33 Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Developments Going Concern Our financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activities and the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we incurred net losses of $8.5 million and $5.6 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, we had total current liabilities of $10.0 million, which exceeded our total current assets of $5.7 million, or a working capital deficit of $4.3 million. As of December 31, 2022, we had total current liabilities of $10.2 million, which exceeded our total current assets of $6.0 million, or a working capital deficit of approximately $4.2 million. During the latter part of 2022 and continuing throughout 2023, the Company underwent a thorough analysis of costs incurred by the Company including payroll and related costs, capital expenditures and profitability of our segments. As such, hiring practices and headcount were significantly modified and reduced, and unprofitable locations were closed. The Company has also disposed of non-core or underperforming assets, generating proceeds totaling approximately $2.0 million. Despite the recent developments and the contributing improvements to our financial position noted above, especially as it relates to the Refinancing, the February 2023 Public Offering, and the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes, the Company believes that substantial doubt exists over our ability to continue as a going concern from one year after the date of issuance of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company utilizes a cash forecast model to evaluate the ability of future cash flows to fund continuing operations. The Company analyzes projected cash flows to determine if they are sufficient to fund the operations and obligations of the Company for a period of time that extends twelve months or more from the date of the applicable filing. The Company may need to raise additional capital for its growth and ongoing operations. As the Company seeks additional sources of financing, there can be no assurance that such financing would be available to the Company on favorable terms, or at all. The Company’s ability to obtain additional financing through debt and equity capital markets, whether public or private, is subject to several factors including market and economic conditions, the Company’s performance, and investor sentiment with respect to the Company and its industry. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions with which it invests. The Company maintains its excess cash in various financial institutions, where deposits may exceed federally insured amounts at times. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable are stated at the amounts billed to customers, net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts. We make estimates of expected credit and collectability trends for the allowance for credit losses based upon our assessment of various factors, including historical experience, the age of the accounts receivable balances, credit quality of our customers, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect our ability to collect from customers. The losses ultimately incurred could differ materially in the near term from the amounts estimated in determining the allowance. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $100,000 and $150,000, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded $50,000 and $94,000, respectively, to bad debt recovery resulting from changes in our estimate of expected credit losses. Concentrations As of December 31, 2023, two customers represented more than 10% of the Company's accounts receivable balance at 50% and 18%, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, one customer represented more than 10% of the Company's accounts receivable balance at 55%. Revenues from two customers represented 10% or more of total revenues, at 32% and 10%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2023. Revenues earned from one customer represented 31% of total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022. Inventories Inventory consists primarily of propane, diesel fuel and chemicals that are used in the servicing of oil wells and is carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value in accordance with the first in, first out method of accounting ("FIFO"). The Company periodically reviews the value of items in inventory and provides write-downs or write-offs of inventory based on its assessment of market conditions. Write-downs and write-offs are charged to cost of goods sold. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized write-offs of inventories of $54,000 and $52,000 respectively. Property and Equipment Property and equipment consists of (i) trucks, trailers and pickups; (ii) water transfer pumps, pipe, lay flat hose, trailers, and other support equipment; (iii) other equipment such as tools used for maintaining and repairing vehicles; and (iv) office furniture and fixtures and computer equipment. Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The Company capitalizes interest on certain qualifying assets that are undergoing activities to prepare them for their intended use. Interest costs incurred during the fabrication period are capitalized and amortized over the life of the assets. The Company charges repairs and maintenance against income when incurred and capitalizes renewals and betterments, which extend the remaining useful life, expand the capacity or efficiency of the assets. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives ranging from 5 to 30 years. Any difference between net book value of the property and equipment and the proceeds of an assets’ sale, or settlement of an insurance claim, is recorded as a gain or loss in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Leases The Company assesses whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. We have elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all assets. Operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities are calculated based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the lease start date. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease start date in determining the present value of future payments. The operating lease asset is increased by any lease payments made at or before the lease start date and reduced by lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. The lease term includes options to renew or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. The depreciable life of lease assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the lease term. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company conducts a major part of its operations from leased facilities. Each of these leases is accounted for as an operating lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. Operating lease liabilities represent the present value of lease payments not yet paid. Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset and are based upon the operating lease liabilities adjusted for prepayments or accrued lease payments, initial direct costs, lease incentives, and impairment of operating lease assets. The Company amortizes leasehold improvements over the shorter of the life of the lease or the life of the improvements. The Company leases trucks and equipment in the normal course of business, which may be recorded as operating or finance leases, depending on the term of the lease. The Company records rental expense on equipment under operating leases over the lease term as it becomes payable; there are no rent escalation terms associated with these equipment leases. The Company records amortization expense on equipment under finance leases on a straight-line basis as well as interest expense based on our implicit borrowing rate at the date of the lease inception. The equipment leases contain purchase options that allow the Company to purchase the leased equipment at the end of the lease term, based on the market price of the equipment at the time of the lease termination. 34 Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recovered. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company ceased operations in North Dakota and completed the sale of the remaining real property in Killdeer, North Dakota which included all land and buildings which had been capitalized within the line item "Property and equipment, net" on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the third quarter of 2023, it was determined that this long-lived asset group was expected to be sold significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life. As such and as of September 30, 2023, the Company concluded that an impairment of this long-lived asset group was present. The resulting analysis for impairment of this long-lived asset group determined that an impairment charge was appropriate based on the best available estimates of recoverable value at that time. As such, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $250,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the asset group was subsequently disposed of during the fourth quarter of 2023 at a loss on disposal of approximately $151,000 recognized within the line item "(Gain) loss on disposal of property and equipment" in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023. Assets Held for Sale The Company classifies long-lived assets to be sold as held for sale in the period in which all the following criteria are met: (i) management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a plan to sell the asset or disposal group; (ii) the asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets; (iii) an active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the plan to sell the asset or disposal group have been initiated; (iv) the sale of the asset or disposal group is probable, and transfer of the asset or disposal group is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year, except if events or circumstances beyond our control extend the period of time required to sell the asset or disposal group beyond one year; (v) the asset is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value; and (vi) actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. We initially measure a long-lived asset or disposal group that is classified as held for sale at the lower of its carrying value or fair value less any costs to sell. Any loss resulting from this measurement is recognized in the period in which the held-for-sale criteria are met. Conversely, gains are not recognized on the sale of a long-lived asset or disposal group until the date of sale. We assess the fair value of a long-lived asset or disposal group (less any costs to sell) each reporting period that it remains classified as held for sale and report any subsequent changes as an adjustment to the carrying value of the asset or disposal group, as long as the new carrying value does not exceed the carrying value of the asset at the time it was initially classified as held for sale. As such and as mentioned in the section above titled "Long-Lived Assets", during the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $250,000. No impairment loss was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2022. Upon determining that a long-lived asset or disposal group meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale, the Company ceases depreciation and reports long-lived assets and/or the assets and liabilities of the disposal group, if material, as presented within the line item "Assets held for sale" in our consolidated balance sheets. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of identifiable assets received attributable to business acquisitions and combinations. Goodwill and other intangible assets are measured for impairment at least annually and/or whenever events and circumstances arise that indicate impairment may exist, such as a significant adverse change in the business climate. In assessing the value of goodwill, assets and liabilities are assigned to the reporting units and the appropriate valuation methodologies are used to determine fair value at the reporting unit level. Identified intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. The Company completed its annual goodwill impairment test as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. The Company tests for impairment by comparing the fair value of our reporting units (which for the Company is our reporting segments) to the carrying value of the reporting units. If the carrying value of any reporting unit exceeds the fair value calculated, an impairment loss is recorded for the difference in fair value and carrying value, up to the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting units. Our fair value is estimated using a combination of the income and market approaches. As a result of performing the annual test of impairment, the Company recognized an impairment loss for its goodwill during the year ended December 31, 2023 in the amount of $546,000. No impairment loss for goodwill was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2022. Revenue Recognition The Company evaluates revenue when we can identify the contract with the customer, the performance obligations in the contract, the transaction price, and we are certain that the performance obligations have been met. Revenue is recognized when the service has been provided to the customer. The vast majority of the Company's services and product offerings are short-term in nature. The time between invoicing and when payment is due under these arrangements is generally thirty to sixty days. Revenue is not generated from contractual arrangements that include multiple performance obligations. The Company’s agreements with its customers are often referred to as "price sheets" and sometimes provide pricing for multiple services. However, these agreements generally do not authorize the performance of specific services or provide for guaranteed throughput amounts. As customers are free to choose which services, if any, to use based on the Company’s price sheet, the Company prices its separate services on the basis of their standalone selling prices. Customer agreements generally do not provide for performance, cancellation, termination, or refund type provisions. Services based on price sheets with customers are generally performed under separately issued "work orders" or "field tickets" as services are requested. Revenue is recognized for certain projects over time based on the number of days during the reporting period and the agreed upon price as work progresses on each project. 35 Earnings (Loss) Per Share Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period is computed using the treasury stock method for Company common stock that may be issued for outstanding stock options or warrants and is computed using the if-converted method for convertible securities and convertible debt. The Company has common stock options, warrants and convertible debt instruments that are considered common stock equivalents that are considered in the computations of basic and diluted earnings per share. The Company uses the treasury stock method for both common stock options and warrants and the if-converted method for convertible debt instruments. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, due to the Company having a net loss for each year, common stock options, warrants and convertible debt when considered in the computations of basic and diluted earnings per share are antidilutive and have been excluded. Income Taxes The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets based on the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years (see Note 6 - Income Taxes). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities will be recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A deferred tax asset or liability that is not related to an asset or liability for financial reporting is classified according to the expected reversal date. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount that it believes is more likely than not expected to be realized. The Company accounts for any uncertainty in income taxes by recognizing the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if, in the Company's opinion, it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company measures the tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. The application of income tax law is inherently complex. Laws and regulations in this area are voluminous and are often ambiguous. As such, the Company is required to make many subjective assumptions and judgments regarding income tax exposures. Interpretations of and guidance surrounding income tax law and regulations change over time and may result in changes to the Company’s subjective assumptions and judgments which can materially affect amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations. The result of the reassessment of the Company’s tax positions did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements. Interest and penalties associated with tax positions are recorded in the period assessed within the line item "Other income (expense)" in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company files income tax returns in the United States and in the states in which it conducts its business operations. The Company’s federal income tax filings for tax years 2020 through 2023 remain open to examination. In general, the Company’s various state tax filings remain open for tax years 2019 through 2023. Fair Value The Company follows authoritative guidance that applies to all financial assets and liabilities required to be measured and reported on a fair value basis. The Company also applies the guidance to non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, including non- competition agreements and goodwill. The guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability ("exit price") in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. The Company did not have any transfers between hierarchy levels during the years ended December 31, 2023 or 2022. The financial and non-financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of the inputs as follows: Level 1: Level 2: Level 3: Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities that are observable for the asset or liability; or Unobservable pricing inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources, such as discounted cash flow models or valuations. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no assets or liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. When an assessment for impairment is required for its long-lived and intangible assets, the Company assesses the recoverability using the lowest level of cash flows taking into consideration timing and appropriate discount rates. When appropriate, market comparables may be used to determine if an asset may not be recoverable. The Company valued its warrants and stock options using the Black-Scholes model for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. 36 Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the date of grant, based on the calculated fair value of the award as described below, and is recognized over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the equity grant. The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model as a method for determining the estimated grant date fair value for all stock options awarded to employees, independent contractors, officers and directors. The expected term of the options is based upon evaluation of historical and expected exercise behavior. The risk-free interest rate is based upon United States Treasury rates at the date of grant with maturity dates approximately equal to the expected life of the grant. Volatility is determined upon historical volatility of our stock and adjusted if future volatility is expected to vary from historical experience. The dividend yield is assumed to be zero as we have not historically paid dividends, nor do we anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. Management Estimates The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the realization of accounts receivable, evaluation of impairment of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation expense, provision for income taxes, and the valuation of warrant liabilities and deferred taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Contingent Liabilities From time-to-time, the Company will have contingent liabilities that arise in the course of business, usually as it pertains to certain lawsuits in which the Company is involved. When a future contingent liability becomes both probable and estimable, the Company will record a liability for the estimated amount, as well as any offsetting receivables in the event the claim is probable to be covered by an insurance policy. In the event there is a range of outcomes and no amount is determined to be most probable, the Company will record a liability and, if applicable due to likelihood of insurance coverage, a receivable for the low end of the range. In the event the Company makes a firm offer in order to settle a lawsuit, the Company will record a liability for the amount of the offer at that time. Classification and Valuation of Warrants The Company analyzes warrant instruments under ASC 480-10, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, to determine the classification of the warrants. More specifically, the Company determines if the warrant contains any special redemption features subject to derivative accounting rules. None of the Company's issued warrants meet any of these criteria and are all classified as permanent equity. The Company uses a Black-Scholes model to determine the fair value of warrants. The expected term used was the remaining contractual term. Expected volatility is based upon historical volatility over a term consistent with the remaining term. The risk-free interest rate is derived from the yield on zero-coupon United States government securities with a remaining term equal to the contractual term of the warrants. The dividend yield is assumed to be zero. Reclassifications Certain prior period amounts have may been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the current presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Statements - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires companies to measure credit losses utilizing a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires a consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to ascertain credit loss estimates. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 for fiscal year 2023 and the adoption of this ASU had no material impact on its consolidated financial statements. 37 Note 3 – Property and Equipment Property and equipment consist of the following (in thousands): Trucks and vehicles Other equipment Buildings and improvements Land Total property and equipment Accumulated depreciation Property and equipment, net December 31, 2023 2022 $ $ 48,036 $ 1,859 619 - 50,514 (43,591) 6,923 $ 53,473 2,059 2,600 190 58,322 (47,086) 11,236 For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded depreciation expense of $3.5 million and $4.1 million, respectively. 38 Note 4 – Intangible Assets, net The components of our intangible assets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 are as follows (in thousands): Customer relationships Patents and trademarks Total intangible assets Accumulated amortization Net carrying value December 31, 2023 2022 $ $ 626 $ 441 1,067 (1067) - $ 626 441 1,067 (885) 182 The useful lives of our intangible assets are estimated to be five years at inception.

Pursuant to the pay-off letter dated as of March 18, 2022 by the Company, its wholly owned subsidiary and East West Bank, in full satisfaction of the Company’s obligations under the 2017 Amended Credit Facility, the Company paid East West Bank $8.4 million in cash and agreed to pay East West Bank five percent of the net proceeds that the Company receives under the Receivables Financing (as defined below), up to a maximum of $1.0 million (the "EWB Obligation"). The Company paid off and satisfied the $1.0 million EWB Obligation in April 2023. As part of the Refinancing, Heat Waves entered into a Master Lease Agreement (the “Utica Facility”) with Utica Leaseco, LLC (“Utica”), pursuant to which Utica provided an equipment-collateralized loan to the Company in the amount of $6.225 million. Under the Utica Facility, the Company is required to make 51 monthly payments with initial payments beginning at $168,075 each and a surcharge of 1% of the monthly payment amount per month for every 0.25% that the prime rate of Comerica Bank exceeds 3.25%. The Company's current minimum payment as of January 1, 2023 under the Utica Facility is $198,000 per month. The aforementioned surcharge is discretionary on the part of Utica and is calculated twice yearly, each on January 1 and July 1, beginning on July 1, 2022. This surcharge is added to the monthly Basic Rent (as such term is defined in the Master Lease Agreement) due under the Utica Facility, and be due and payable with the next regularly scheduled Basic Rent payment under such schedule and on each payment date thereafter. At the end of the fifty-one month term, the Company is required to make a residual payment to Utica between 1% and 10% of the initial principal amount, or between $62,250 and $622,500, The Utica Facility is secured by all the Company’s equipment and proceeds from sale of such equipment. The Company also has the option to prepay $1.0 million of the Utica Facility in exchange for a reduced payment schedule. The Company guarantees the obligations of Heat Waves under the Utica Facility. Further, as part of the Refinancing, Heat Waves entered into an Invoice Purchase Agreement (the “Receivables Financing” or "LSQ Facility," and together with the Utica Facility, the “2022 Financing Facilities”) with LSQ Funding Group, LLC (“LSQ”) pursuant to which LSQ will provide receivables factoring to Heat Waves. Under the Receivables Financing, LSQ advances up to 85% on accounts receivable factored by Heat Waves, up to a maximum of $10.0 million. LSQ receives fees equal to 0.1% of the receivables purchased in addition to a funds usage daily fee of 0.021% of the outstanding balance purchased. The Receivables Financing initially had an 18-month term that can be terminated upon payment of certain fees. The Receivables Financing is secured by a security interest in Heat Wave’s accounts receivables and proceeds from such accounts receivable. Heat Wave’s obligations under the Receivables Financing are guaranteed by the Company. The Utica Facility and the LSQ Facility are subject to an Intercreditor Agreement dated on or about March 24, 2022 by and among Utica, LSQ, Heat Waves, and the Company (the “Intercreditor Agreement”). Lastly, as part of the Refinancing, the Company issued a $1.2 million convertible subordinated note (the “March 2022 Convertible Note”) to Cross River Partners, LP (“Cross River”), which is an entity controlled by Richard Murphy, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman. The March 2022 Convertible Note had a six-year term and accrued interest at 7.00% per annum. As a result of the Refinancing, the Company recorded a $4.3 million gain on this transaction as presented within the line item "Gain on debt extinguishment" in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022. In accordance with ASC 470-60, the Company assessed whether the Refinancing met the criteria of a troubled debt restructuring ("TDR"). Management's assessment of TDR accounting treatment for the Refinancing determined that the 2017 Amended Credit Facility was extinguished as the result of a TDR; however, TDR accounting did not apply to the 2022 Financing Facilities as the 2017 Amended Credit Facility was settled in full and therefore accounted for as a debt extinguishment. Subordinated Debt with Related Parties On December 21, 2021, the Company issued a subordinated non-convertible promissory note to Cross River, a related party, for $220,000, which amount was subsequently reduced to $162,000 and then fully repaid in 2022. On July 15, 2022, the Company entered into a convertible subordinated promissory note (the “July 2022 Convertible Note”) with Cross River whereby the Company received $1.2 million of capital for general working capital purposes. The July 2022 Convertible Note was set to mature six years from the date of issuance and carried interest at the rate of 7.75% per annum. The Company was required to make quarterly interest-only payments for the first year starting September 30, 2022, followed by principal and interest payments for the remaining five years based upon a ten-year amortization schedule. The July 2022 Convertible Note was unsecured and junior and subordinate to indebtedness which the Company may now or at any time hereafter owe to any lender. Subject to any required stockholder approval, all or some of the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest under the July 2022 Convertible Note was convertible at the option of Cross River into (i) common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $1.69 per share; or (ii) equity securities issued by the Company in an equity offering with minimum offering proceeds to the Company (net of any related placement agent or underwriting fees) of $1.2 million at the conversion price per equity security issued in such equity offering. On September 22, 2022, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility with Cross River pursuant to which the Company issued a $750,000 revolving promissory note to Cross River (the “Cross River Revolver Note”). On November 3, 2022, the Company entered into a note exchange agreement with Cross River, pursuant to which Cross River loaned an additional $450,000 to the Company and exchanged the September $750,000 Cross River Revolver Note for a $1.2 million convertible secured subordinated promissory note (the “November 2022 Convertible Note”), and received a five-year warrant to acquire 568,720 shares of Company common stock at $2.11 per share. These warrants are subject to limitation such that the number of shares that may be issued shall not exceed obligations under rules of regulations of the principal market. The November 2022 Convertible Note has a two-year term and accrues interest at 10.00% per annum, payable quarterly starting March 30, 2023 at the option of the Company in cash or the Company’s common stock. Subject to any shareholder approval required by any exchange upon which the Company’s common stock is then listed, the principal and accrued interest of the November 2022 Convertible Note is convertible into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to the lower of $2.11 per share or the per share price the Company receives for its common stock in the next subsequent equity offering in excess of $2.0 million. The November 2022 Convertible Note is secured by two Company-owned parcels of real property located in North Dakota. On December 13, 2022, the Company sold one of these two parcels for a combination of cash and a promissory note/mortgage totaling $550,000. As consideration for Cross River releasing its security interest on such parcel, the Company has agreed that it will enter into a collateral assignment of the security on such parcel back to Cross River in the event the buyer defaults on their promissory note/mortgage to the Company. On November 22, 2023, the Company sold the remaining real property parcel in Killdeer, North Dakota, with Cross River releasing its security interest in the parcel in conjunction with the sale. On March 28, 2023, Cross River converted approximately $1.1 million principal amount of the March 2022 Convertible Note into 2,275,000 shares of Company common stock. On June 30, 2023, Cross River: 1) converted the remaining $148,950 principal balance of the March 2022 Convertible Note into 322,402 shares of Company common stock; 2) converted the entire $1,200,000 principal balance of the July 2022 Convertible Note into 2,400,000 shares of Company common stock; and 3) received a five-year warrant to acquire 2,400,000 shares of Company common stock with an exercise price of $0.55 per share. On September 1, 2023, the Company issued a convertible promissory note in the amount of $750,000 to Cross River and a convertible promissory note in the amount of $50,000 to Kevin Chesser (“Chesser”), a director of the Company. Also on September 11, 2023, pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement (the "Note Purchase Agreement"), Cross River and Chesser exchanged the previously issued September 1, 2023 convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amounts of $750,000 and $50,000, respectively, for new convertible promissory notes (the “September and October 2023 Convertible Notes”) with the same principal amounts. On the same date, pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company also issued September 2023 convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $125,000 to Angel Capital Partners, LP ("Angel Capital"), and in aggregate principal amount of $187,500 to Equigen, II, LLC ("Equigen"), an entity owned by Steven A. Weyel, a director of the Company. The September and October 2023 Convertible Notes have an eighteen-month term and accrue interest at 16.00% annually. The Company is required to make interest only payments on a quarterly basis at the end of each calendar quarter, beginning with the quarter ending December 31, 2023. The first quarterly interest payment is payable in shares of the Company’s common stock based on the five (5) day moving average of the closing sales price of the common stock on the NYSE American immediately prior to December 31, 2023. For calendar quarters beginning March 31, 2024, the Company is required to make quarterly interest payments in cash within ten (10) days of the close of the quarter. The September and October 2023 Convertible Notes may not be prepaid by the Company. The Note Purchase Agreement contains certain covenants, including a covenant that, without the written approval of the holders of greater than 75% of the principal amount of the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes, restricts the Company’s ability to (a) incur any debt which is senior or pari-passu to the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes, or (b) issue any new securities subject to certain exceptions. If the Company closes on a new offering of equity securities (the “Equity Financing”) of a minimum of $5,000,000 before the maturity date mentioned above, then, subject to any NYSE American shareholder approval requirements, the principal amount, together with all accrued but unpaid interest of the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes, will automatically convert into shares of the same class and type at the same price and on the same terms and provisions as the securities issued to the other participants in the Equity Financing on the closing date of such Equity Financing; provided, however, at the option of the holder, the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes may convert into such equity, (a) at $0.50 per share if the security sold in the Equity Financing is common stock or (b) at a share price which is 25% less than the lowest price per share of shares sold in the Equity Financing. Subject to any NYSE American shareholder approval requirements, the holders may convert their Convertible Notes at any time into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.50 per share. If a change of control of the Company or a sale of a substantial portion of any of its assets occurs prior to the maturity date mentioned above, the holder may elect to receive either (i) the principal amount plus accrued interest plus a premium that is equal to 25% of the principal amount or (ii) the right to convert the principal amount plus accrued but unpaid interest into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to a 25% discount to the five (5) day moving average of the closing sales price of the common stock on the NYSE American immediately prior to the transaction which results in a change of control of the Company. In October 2023, pursuant to the September 2023 Note Purchase Agreement, Cross River purchased an additional $150,000 of the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes and Richard Murphy, our Chief Executive Officer and Chair, purchased $100,000 of the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes. Also in October 2023, Equigen and Angel Capital contemporaneously purchased $187,500 and $125,000, respectively, in aggregate principal amount of the September and October 2023 Convertible Notes. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company renewed certain of its insurance policies. As part of this renewal, the Company financed $1.8 million of the insurance payments to be made over future periods. This financed insurance liability is recognized within the line item "Accounts payable and accrued liabilities," with a corresponding financed insurance asset recognized within the line item "Prepaid expenses and other current assets," both presented on our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023. Debt Discount and Debt Issuance Costs We capitalized certain debt discount and debt issuance costs incurred in connection with the various debt facilities executed by the Company. These costs were amortized to interest expense over the terms of the facilities on a straight-line basis. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company amortized $277,000 and $100,000, respectively, of these costs within the line item “Interest expense” in the consolidated statements of operations. The remaining balance of the unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs was $295,000 as of December 31, 2023. 40 Note 6 – Income Taxes Deferred income tax benefit consists of the following (in thousands): Current: Federal State Total current Deferred: Federal State Total deferred Total deferred income tax benefit December 31, 2023 2022 $ $ - $ - - (44) (7) (51) (51) $ - - - - - - - A reconciliation of computed income taxes by applying the statutory federal income tax rate of 21% to loss from continuing operations before taxes to deferred income tax benefit as presented in our consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 is as follows (in thousands): Computed income taxes at 21% (Decrease) increase in income taxes resulting from: State and local income taxes, net of federal impact Change in valuation allowance Other December 31, 2023 2022 $ (1,799) $ (1,171) (300) 2,039 9 (51) $ (195) 1,360 6 - Deferred income tax benefit $ In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. We have a requirement of reporting of taxes based on tax positions which meet a "more likely than not" standard and which are measured at the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Differences between financial and tax reporting which do not meet this threshold are required to be recorded as unrecognized tax benefits. This standard also provides guidance on the presentation of tax matters and the recognition of potential IRS penalties and interest. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company does not have an unrecognized tax liability. The Company has $45.8 million of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs"). The Company estimates that $18.6 million of federal and $7.4 million of state net operating losses will expire unused due to 382 limitations beginning in 2035. The components of deferred income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 are as follows (in thousands): Deferred tax assets: Reserves and accruals Amortization Other items Loss carryforwards Total deferred tax assets Valuation allowance Net deferred tax assets Deferred tax liabilities: Depreciation Total deferred tax liabilities Net deferred tax liabilities December 31, 2023 2022 $ $ 306 $ 232 12 11,216 11,766 (11,044) 722 (944) (944) (222) $ 307 82 12 9,854 10,255 (9,006) 1,249 (1,522) (1,522) (273) The Company uses significant judgment in forming conclusions regarding the recoverability of its deferred tax assets and evaluates all available positive and negative evidence to determine if it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. To the extent recovery does not appear likely, a valuation allowance must be recorded. The Company recorded a valuation allowance of $11.0 million and $9.0 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. It is possible that the relative weight of positive and negative evidence regarding the realization of deferred tax assets may change, which could result in a material increase or decrease in the Company’s valuation allowance. Such a change could result in a material increase or decrease to income tax expense in the period the assessment was made. The Company classifies penalty and interest expense related to income tax liabilities as other expense, which are recognized within the line item "Other income (expense)" in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company did not incur any penalty and interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company files tax returns in various states in the United States, including but not limited to Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania and Texas. The Company’s federal income tax filings for tax years 2020 through 2023 remain open to examination. In general, the Company’s various state tax filings remain open for tax years 2019 to 2023. 41 Note 7 – Stockholders' Equity February 2023 Offering of Common Stock and Warrants On February 22, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the investors in a best-efforts public offering (i) 3,900,000 shares of Company common stock, (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,100,000 shares of Company common stock and (iii) common warrants to purchase 7,000,000 shares of Company common stock (the "February 2023 Offering"). The shares of common stock, or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof, and the common warrants were sold in units, with each unit consisting of one share of common stock or one pre-funded warrant in lieu thereof and one common warrant. Each unit comprised of common stock and common warrants were sold at a per unit price of $0.50. Each unit comprised of pre-funded warrants and common warrants were sold at a per unit price of $0.495, which represents the same per unit price less the $0.005 per share exercise price of the pre-funded warrants. The common warrants are exercisable at a price of $0.55 per share, and have a five-year term. The warrants issued in the February 2023 Offering had an estimated fair value of approximately $2.0 million. The net proceeds from the offering were $3.0 million, after deducting Placement Agent fees and other offering expenses. Offering expenses totaling $534,000 were charged to stockholders' equity and are recorded as a reduction of the proceeds from the February 2023 Offering. The Company used the net proceeds for general corporate purposes. Conversion of Subordinated Debt to Equity On March 28, 2023, Cross River converted approximately $1.1 million principal amount of the March 2022 Convertible Note into 2,275,000 shares of Company common stock. On June 30, 2023, Cross River: 1) converted the remaining $148,950 principal balance of the March 2022 Convertible Note into 322,402 shares of Company common stock; 2) converted the entire $1,200,000 principal balance of the July 2022 Convertible Note into 2,400,000 shares of Company common stock; and 3) received a five-year warrant to acquire 2,400,000 shares of Company common stock with an exercise price of $0.55 per share. The warrants issued as part of the July 2022 Convertible Note conversion had an estimated fair value of $340,000. September 2023 Oilfield Equipment Asset Purchase Agreement On September 11, 2023, the Company completed an asset purchase agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"), acquiring all of the oilfield equipment assets of oilfield services providers Rapid Hot Flow LLC and Rapid Pressure Services, LLC, from OilServ, LLC (collectively, "OilServ, LLC"), in exchange for 2,939,133 shares of the Company's common stock, valued at $1,057,500. The total shares issued at closing was 2,645,220 shares of Company common stock, and the remaining 293,913 shares were issued on March 11, 2024 following the satisfaction of the indemnification provisions which were provided for in the acquisition. Warrants A summary of warrant activity for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 is as follows (in thousands): Warrants Shares Exercise Price Weighted Average Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years) Outstanding as of January 1, 2022 Issued Outstanding as of December 31, 2022 Issued Exercised Outstanding as of December 31, 2023 Exercisable as of December 31, 2023 NYSE Regulation Notice of Noncompliance 1,192,085 $ 568,720 1,760,805 12,500,000 (3,100,000) 11,160,805 $ 11,160,805 $ 3.57 2.11 3.10 0.41 0.005 0.95 0.95 3.75 4.84 3.43 4.32 - 3.95 3.95 On May 2, 2023, the Company received notice from the NYSE that its equity balance as of December 31, 2022 had fallen below $2.0 million and therefore the Company was not in compliance with the NYSE American's continued listing standards under Section 1003(a)(i) in the NYSE American Company Guide (the "Company Guide"). As previously reported, the Company is also noncompliant with Section 1003(a)(ii) and Section 1003(a)(iii) of the Company Guide, as a result of its stockholder’s equity being less than the required thresholds for each of the particular sections. The Company is now subject to the procedures and requirements set forth in Section 1009 of the Company Guide. The Company has until June 9, 2024 to regain compliance with the stockholders' equity continued listing standards or NYSE will initiate delisting proceedings. On January 10, 2023, the Company submitted a plan (the "Plan") in response to an earlier notice from the NYSE advising of actions the Company is taking to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by June 9, 2024, which Plan was accepted by the NYSE on February 14, 2023. If the Company is not in compliance with all stockholders’ equity standards by June 9, 2024 or does not make progress consistent with the plan during the plan period, NYSE may initiate delisting proceedings as it deems appropriate. The Company is taking steps to achieve compliance with the stockholders' equity standards of Section 1003(a) of the Company Guide by June 9, 2024. These steps include the conversions of convertible notes into equity as discussed in Note 5 - Debt. The Company is working towards regaining compliance with the stockholders' equity continued listing standards of the NYSE American; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will ultimately regain compliance with all applicable NYSE American listing standards. 42 Note 8 – Stock Options and Restricted Stock Stock Options On July 18, 2016, the Board unanimously approved the adoption of the Enservco Corporation 2016 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2016 Plan"), which was approved by the stockholders on September 29, 2016. The aggregate number of shares of Company common stock that may be granted under the 2016 Plan is 533,334 shares, plus authorized and unissued shares from the 2010 Plan totaling 159,448, for a total reserve of 692,782 shares. As of December 31, 2023, there were 250,000 options and 15,000 shares of restricted stock that remained outstanding under the 2016 Plan. On September 11, 2023, the Company granted stock options to certain key employees to acquire 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.41 per share with 50% of such options vesting January 1, 2024, and the remaining balance vesting January 1, 2025. In connection with the stock options issuance, the Company recognized stock-based compensation costs of $109,000 for the year ended December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, there is $66,000 of unamortized stock-based compensation expense for stock options to be amortized over the next twelve months. Restricted Stock Restricted shares issued pursuant to restricted stock awards under the 2016 Plan are restricted as to sale or disposition. These restrictions lapse periodically, generally over a period of three years. Restrictions may also lapse for early retirement and other conditions in accordance with our established policies. Upon termination of employment, shares on which restrictions have not lapsed must be returned to us, resulting in restricted stock forfeitures. The fair market value on the date of the grant of the stock with a service condition is amortized and charged to income on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. The fair market value on the date of the grant of the stock with a performance condition shall be accrued and recognized when it becomes probable that the performance condition will be achieved. Restricted shares that contain a market condition are amortized and charged to expense over the life of the award. A summary of the restricted stock activity is presented below: Restricted shares as of January 1, 2022 Granted Vested Forfeited Restricted shares as of December 31, 2022 Granted Vested Forfeited Restricted shares as of December 31, 2023 Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value 181,221 $ 345,000 (178,721) (80,000) 267,500 139,262 (266,762) (25,000) 115,000 $ 1.58 2.68 2.12 2.21 2.44 1.26 1.86 1.02 2.68 During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized stock-based compensation costs for restricted stock of $268,000 and $811,000 presented within the line item "Sales, general and administrative expenses" in the consolidated statements of operations, of which $748,000 of the prior year expense was related to compensation for restricted stock awards granted to the Company's CFO who joined the Company in April 2022. Compensation cost is revised if subsequent information indicates that the actual number of restricted stock vested due to service is likely to differ from previous estimates. As of December 31, 2023, there is no remaining unamortized stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company awarded 79,262 restricted shares to the Board of Directors to satisfy 2023 Board of Directors fees earned. The Company recognized expense of $82,000 for the year ended December 31, 2023 related to the award of these shares. The Company issued 50,000 restricted shares during the year ended December 31, 2022 as part of the severance agreement related to the resignation of a former Chief Financial Officer. This issuance had a grant date fair value of $112,000 and the expense for this issuance is presented within the line item "Severance and transition costs" in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022. Unvested restricted performance share-based awards totaling 61,000 shares were forfeited as part of the severance agreement. 43 16 - - 16 - 16 88 799 887 19 2 21 Note 9 – Commitments and Contingencies As of December 31, 2023, the Company leases facilities and certain equipment under lease commitments that expire through June 2026.

On November 28, 2022, the plaintiff amended their complaint primarily to add Jan Lambert as lead plaintiff and to include Cross River Partners, L.P. and Cross River Capital Management, LLC as defendants. On February 10, 2023, the Company filed a motion in the United State District Court of Colorado to dismiss the class action complaint, citing a lack of specific facts and evidence brought by the plaintiffs in alleging the Company and certain of its officers committed securities fraud. As described in the motion requesting dismissal, the Company cites a lack and failure by the plaintiffs to bring significant and specific evidence in claiming that the Company and certain of its officers acted in an intentionally fraudulent or misleading manner, in connection with the Company restating its Form 10-Q financial filings for the first, second, and third fiscal quarters of 2021, due to errors relating to complex and technical tax and accounting issues, of which did not have an impact on revenue, operating expenses, operating loss, or Adjusted EBITDA for the three 2021 quarterly financial restatements. On March 4, 2024, the United States District Court of Colorado dismissed the May 2022 class action complaint filed against the Company and two current or former officers. The Court's order dismissed claims against the Company and certain of our current and former officers and granted the Company's February 2023 motion to dismiss the class action complaint without prejudice. On March 21, 2024, the Company was informed by the plaintiff's attorney that no appeal will be filed and the class action complaint is considered dismissed without prejudice as of that date. 44 Note 10 – Segment Reporting Enservco’s reportable operating segments are Production Services and Completion and Other Services. These segments have been selected based on management’s resource allocation and performance assessment in making decisions regarding the Company. The following is a description of the segments: Production Services This segment utilizes a fleet of hot oiling trucks and acidizing units to provide maintenance services to the domestic oil and gas industry. These services include hot oiling services and acidizing services. Hot oiling is utilized by customers to remove paraffins from wellbores, pipes and vessels. Acidizing services are utilized by customers to clean reservoir surfaces and increase flow rates. Completion and Other Services This segment utilizes a fleet of specialized heating units to provide frac water heating services and related support services to the domestic oil and gas industry. These services also include other services for other industries, which consist primarily of hauling and transport of materials and heat treating for customers. Frac water heating is utilized by customers during the completion of oil and gas wells. Unallocated This segment includes general overhead expenses and assets associated with managing all reportable operating segments which have not been allocated to a specific segment.

The Base Amount consists of $3,750,000 in cash and $1,250,000 in shares of Enservco common stock based on the volume-weighted average of Enservco common stock for the 10-day period immediately preceding the closing date. The issuance of the Enservco common stock pursuant to the Buckshot Purchase Agreement is subject to the prior approval or consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Enservco common stock. Under the Buckshot Purchase Agreement, Enservco has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain from specified stockholders a written consent approving the issuance of the common stock as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of the Buckshot Purchase Agreement. In addition, Enservco will prepare and file an information statement in respect to the issuance of Enservco common stock under the Buckshot Purchase Agreement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in accordance with Rule 14c-2 of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Information Statement”) or a proxy statement should Enservco proceed with a stockholder meeting in lieu of a written consent seeking approval. Under the Buckshot Purchase Agreement, Enservco has agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC for the purpose of registering for resale the shares issued pursuant to the Buckshot Purchase Agreement. Enservco is required to file such registration statement with the SEC within 60 days following the closing date. The Buckshot Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants by each party. The Buckshot Purchase Agreement also contains post-closing indemnification rights for each party for breaches of representations and warranties, covenants, as well as certain other matters, subject to certain specified limitations. Each party’s obligation to consummate the Acquisition is conditioned upon certain closing conditions, including without limitation: (i) Buckshot Trucking having a trailing twelve (12) month adjusted EBITDA of at least $2,000,000 as of the closing date; (ii) Buckshot Trucking delivering a closing working capital amount of at least $1,230,000 as of the closing date; (iii) the Information Statement having been mailed to Enservco’s stockholders and at least 20 calendar days elapsing from the date of completion of such mailing; (iv) the performance by the other party of its obligations and covenants under the Buckshot Purchase Agreement; (v) the absence of any decree prohibiting consummation of the closing; and (vi) the delivery of certain closing deliverables by the other party. In connection with the Buckshot Purchase Agreement, Enservco will enter into an employment agreement with Tony Sims, one of the former owners, to serve as President of Buckshot Trucking. As an inducement for his employment, Enservco has agreed to issue Mr. Sims options to acquire 250,000 shares of Enservco common stock at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of Enservco common stock on the date of the grant. The options will vest 50% on July 1, 2024 and 50% on July 1, 2025. Legal Matters On March 4, 2024, the United States District Court of Colorado dismissed a May 2022 class action complaint filed against the Company and two current or former officers. The Court's order dismissed claims against the Company and certain of our current and former officers and granted the Company's February 2023 motion to dismiss the class action complaint without prejudice. On March 21, 2024, the Company was informed by the plaintiff's attorney that no appeal will be filed and the class action complaint is considered dismissed without prejudice as of that date. 46 ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE None. ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Evaluation and Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures As of December 31, 2023, management conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and our Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer), of 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) of the Exchange Act. Throughout the reporting period, the Company has faced financial and staffing challenges requiring significant resource allocations towards operational activities. As a smaller reporting company, the necessity of the Company to balance the continual improvement and testing of its internal control framework and related controls against the requirements to operate its business is a continual challenge. While the Company will continue to enhance, monitor and remediate its internal control framework in order to improve, monitor and enhance our disclosure controls and procedures, management does not believe that it has adequately tested its internal control over financial reporting, disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2023. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2023 in ensuring that information required to be disclosed was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accurately accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to ensure that it is effective. Notwithstanding, management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believes the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows at and for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company will continue to develop, enhance and remediate internal control gaps and test its internal control environment on an ongoing basis, with the goal of enhancing the control environment as a smaller reporting company with limited resources. Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting refers to a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the Board, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Because of inherent limitations and resource constraints, internal control systems over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on this assessment, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2023. Management does not yet believe that prior year material weaknesses have been fully remediated. The Company will continually require monitoring and development within the confines of a smaller reporting company with limited resources. Remediation of Material Weaknesses A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements in a prior period, management identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. These prior period material weaknesses allowed errors to occur that were not detected in a timely manner, therefore requiring a re-evaluation for the accounting of certain transactions during that time. Management believes these prior period material weaknesses are continually being remediated through the efforts the Company has undertaken to enhance its system of evaluating and implementing the accounting standards that apply to our accounting for complex financial instruments and accounting for income taxes, including through enhanced analyses by our personnel and third-party professionals with whom we consult regarding complex accounting and tax applications. In addition, the Company has undertaken and is currently undertaking a number of initiatives in its efforts to improve upon its control environment and, ultimately, remediate and prevent material weaknesses in future periods. These initiatives include but are not limited to upgrading its ERP and accounting system, as well as the addition of full-time resource(s) that have had extensive experience with and knowledge of a proper internal control framework and environment. Further, we plan to engage a third-party consulting firm to document and test on behalf of management the design and effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. We will continue to remediate, enhance, monitor and test the design and effectiveness of these and other processes, procedures, and controls and make any further changes or determine and obtain any additional resources management deems appropriate. Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting There have been no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the Company’s quarter ended December 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
