CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements discuss matters that are not historical facts. Because they discuss future events or conditions, forward-looking statements may include words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “may,” “seek,” “plan,” “might,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “predict,” “project,” “forecast,” “potential,” “continue” negatives thereof or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, are based on various underlying assumptions and current expectations about the future and are not guarantees. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievement to be materially different from the results of operations or plans expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
We cannot predict all the risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, such information should not be regarded as representations that the results or conditions described in such statements or that our objectives and plans will be achieved, and we do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any of these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are found at various places throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and include information concerning possible or assumed future results of our operations, including statements about potential acquisition or merger targets; business strategies; future cash flows; financing plans; plans and objectives of management; any other statements regarding future acquisitions, future cash needs, future operations, business plans and future financial results, and any other statements that are not historical facts.
These forward-looking statements represent our intentions, plans, expectations, assumptions and beliefs about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors. Many of those factors are outside of our control and could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements. Considering these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events described in the forward-looking statements might not occur or might occur to a different extent or at a different time than we have described. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning other matters addressed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Except to the extent required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, a change in events, conditions, circumstances or assumptions underlying such statements, or otherwise.

AmpliTech designs, engineers and assembles microwave component-based low noise amplifiers (“LNA”) that meet individual customer specifications. Application of the Company’s proprietary technology results in maximum frequency gain with minimal background noise distortion as required by each customer. The Company has both domestic and international customers in such industries as aerospace, governmental, defense and commercial satellite.
On September 12, 2019, AmpliTech Group, Inc., acquired the assets of Specialty Microwave Corporation (“Specialty”), a privately held company based in Ronkonkoma, NY. The purchase included all inventory, orders, customers, property and equipment, and intellectual property. The assets also included all eight team members of Specialty.
Specialty designs and manufactures passive microwave components and related subsystems that meet individual customer specifications for both domestic and international customers for use in satellite communication ground networks.
On February 17, 2021, the Company priced its underwritten public offering of
In 2021, the Company opened AGMDC, a monolithic microwave integrated circuits (“MMIC”) chip design center in Texas and has started to implement several of its proprietary amplifier designs into MMIC components. MMICs are semiconductor chips used in high-frequency communications applications. MMICs are widely desired for power amplification solutions to service emerging technologies, such as phased array antennas and quantum computing. MMICs carry a smaller footprint enabling them to be incorporated into a broader array of systems while reducing costs. AGMDC designs, develops and manufactures state-of-the-art signal processing components for satellite and 5G communications networks, defense, space and other commercial applications, allowing the Company to market its products to wider base of customers requiring high technology in smaller packages.

(the "Seller" or “SSM”), pursuant to which AmpliTech acquired substantially all the assets of the Company (the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition was completed on December 15, 2021.
Spectrum Semiconductor Materials ("SSM”), located in Silicon Valley (San Jose, CA), is a global authorized distributor of integrated circuit ("IC") packaging and lids for semiconductor device assembly, prototyping, testing, and production requirements.
In August 2022, the AmpliTech Group True G Speed Services (“TGSS”) division was formed to provide “true G speeds” to the industry. TGSS’ main function will be to plan and configure 5G radio systems and make them Open Radio Access Network compatible. TGSS will implement AmpliTech’s low noise amplifier devices in these systems to promote greater coverage, longer range and faster speeds.
The COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic had disrupted and affected our business operations, which has led to business and supply chain disruptions. The lingering effects of the pandemic are likely to continue to disrupt our business and supply chain in the future. For example, our offices and R&D and manufacturing locations were, and may continue to be, impacted due to national and regional government declarations requiring closures, quarantines, and travel restrictions, although nearly all government-imposed restrictions have been significantly reduced in most parts of the world. However, given the unpredictable nature of COVID-19 and its variants, it is difficult, if not impossible, to predict, whether any government-imposed restrictions will be reimposed at previous levels or enhanced in one or more ways impacting our business operations or those of third parties upon which we rely. The COVID-19 pandemic, including associated business interruptions and recovery, as well as other possible epidemics or outbreaks of other contagions could result in a material adverse impact on our or our current or anticipated customers’ or suppliers’ business operations, including reduction or suspension of operations in the U.S. or other parts of the world. Our design and engineering operations, among others, cannot all be conducted remotely and often require on-site access to materials and equipment. We have customers, suppliers, and partners with international operations, and our customers, suppliers, and partners also depend on suppliers and manufacturers worldwide, which means that our business and prospects could be affected by the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic anywhere in the world. Depending upon the duration of the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated business interruptions, our customers, suppliers, manufacturers, and partners may suspend or delay their engagements with us. We and our customers’ and suppliers’ response to the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic may prove to be inadequate and they may be unable to continue their respective operations in the manner they had prior to the outbreak or the worsening of the outbreak, and we may consequently endure interruptions, reputational harm, delays in our product development, and shipments, all of which could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition. In addition, we cannot assure you as to the timing of the economic recovery given the lingering effects of the pandemic, which could have a material adverse effect on our target markets and our business

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting.
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of AmpliTech Group, Inc. (“Group” or the “Company”) have been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes related thereto for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, included in Form 10-K filed with the SEC filed on March 31, 2023.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries and divisions. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior years’ financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported results of operations. The revenue earnout was reclassed from long term liabilities to current liabilities on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2022.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers deposits that can be redeemed on demand and investments and marketable securities that have original maturities of less than three months, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2023, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were deposited in four financial institutions.
Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $
Accounts Receivable
Trade accounts receivables are recorded at the net invoice value and are not interest bearing.
The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts. The Company’s estimate is based on historical collection experience and a review of the status of accounts receivable. It is reasonably possible that the Company’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts will change in the future. An allowance of $
Marketable Securities
The Company’s investments in marketable securities are classified based on the nature of the securities and their availability for use in current operations. The Company’s marketable securities are stated at fair value with all realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments in marketable equity securities recognized in other income, net. The realized and unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities are determined using specific identification method.
Inventories
Inventories, which consists primarily of raw materials, work in progress and finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market (net realizable value).
Inventory quantities and related values are analyzed at the end of each fiscal quarter to determine those items that are slow moving and obsolete. An inventory reserve is recorded for those items determined to be slow moving with a corresponding charge to cost of goods sold. Inventory items that are determined obsolete are written off currently with a corresponding charge to cost of goods sold.
As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the reserve for inventory obsolescence was $

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.
Property and equipment are depreciated as follows:
Description | Useful Life | Method |
Office equipment | ||
Machinery/shop equipment | ||
Computer equipment/software | ||
Vehicles | ||
Leasehold improvements |
Long-lived assets
The Company reviews its property and equipment and right-of-use (“ROU”) assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. The test for impairment is required to be performed by management upon triggering events. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flow expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. There were no indicators of impairment during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Intangible assets
The Company periodically evaluates the reasonableness of the useful lives of these assets. These assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If impaired, intangible assets are written down to fair value based on discounted cash flows or other valuation techniques. There were no indicators of impairment during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Goodwill
We follow the acquisition method of accounting to record the assets and liabilities of acquired businesses at their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition. We initially record goodwill for the amount the consideration transferred exceeds the acquisition-date fair value of net identifiable assets acquired.
We test goodwill for impairment at a level within the Company referred to as the reporting unit, which is our business segment level or one level below the business segment. We test our goodwill for impairment annually on December 31, or under certain circumstances more frequently, such as when events or circumstances indicate there may be impairment. Such events or circumstances may include a significant deterioration in overall economic conditions, changes in the business climate of our industry, a decline in our market capitalization, operating performance indicators, competition, reorganizations of our business or the disposal of all or a portion of a reporting unit.
To test goodwill for impairment, we may perform both qualitative and quantitative assessments. If we elect to perform a qualitative assessment for a certain reporting unit, we evaluate events and circumstances impacting the reporting unit to determine the probability that goodwill is impaired. If we perform a quantitative assessment for a certain reporting unit, we calculate the fair value of that reporting unit and compare the fair value to the reporting unit’s net book value. We estimate fair values of our reporting units based on projected cash flows, and sales and/or earnings multiples applied to the latest twelve months’ sales and earnings of our reporting units. Projected cash flows are based on our best estimate of future sales, operating costs and balance sheet metrics reflecting our view of the financial and market conditions of the underlying business; and the resulting cash flows are discounted using an appropriate discount rate that reflects the risk in the forecasted cash flows.
If we determine it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, we measure any loss from an impairment by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, goodwill is considered impaired, and an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. There were no indicators of impairment during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Investment Policy-Cost Method
Investments consist of non-controlling equity investments in privately held companies. The Company elected the measurement alternative for these investments without readily determinable fair values and for which the Company does not control or have the ability to exercise considerable influence over operating and financial policies. These investments are accounted for under the cost method of accounting. Under the cost method of accounting, the non-marketable equity securities are carried at cost less any impairment, adjusted for observable price changes of similar investments of the same issuer. Fair value is not estimated for these investments if there are no identified events or changes in circumstances that may influence the fair value of the investment. Under this method, the Company’s share of the earnings or losses of such investee companies is not included in the consolidated balance sheet or consolidated statements of operations. The Company held $
Leases
We lease property and equipment under finance and operating leases. For leases with terms greater than 12 months, we record the related asset and obligation at the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company has elected not to separate lease and non-lease components for all property leases for the purpose of calculating ROU assets and lease liabilities. Many of our leases include rental escalation clauses, renewal options and/or termination options that are factored into our determination of lease payments when appropriate. When available, we use the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of our leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, we must estimate our incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest that a lessee would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis considering such factors as lease term and economic environment risks.
Revenue Recognition
We sell our products through a combination of a direct sales force in the United States and independent sales representatives in international markets. Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods based on the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for these goods. This core principle is achieved through the following steps:
15 |
Table of Contents |
AmpliTech Group, Inc.
Notes To Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
For The Three Months Ended March 31, 2023, and 2022
Identify the contract with the customer. A contract with a customer exists when (i) we enter into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the goods to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these goods, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii) we determine that collection of substantially all consideration for services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration. We do not have significant costs to obtain contracts with customers. For commissions on product sales, we have elected the practical expedient to expense the costs as incurred.
Identify the performance obligations in the contract. Our contracts with customers do not include multiple performance obligations to be completed over a period.
Our performance obligations relate to delivering single-use products to a customer, subject to the shipping terms of the contract. Limited warranties are provided, under which we typically accept returns and provide either replacement parts or refunds.
We do not have significant returns. We do not typically offer extended warranty or service plans.
Determine the transaction price. Payment by the customer is due under customary fixed payment terms, and we evaluate if collectability is reasonably assured. None of our contracts as of March 31, 2023 contained a significant financing component. Revenue is recorded at the net sales price, which includes estimates of variable consideration such as product returns, rebates, discounts, and other adjustments. The estimates of variable consideration are based on historical payment experience, historical and projected sales data, and current contract terms. Variable consideration is included in revenue only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of the revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Taxes collected from customers relating to product sales and remitted to governmental authorities are excluded from revenues.
Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract. We typically do not have multiple performance obligations in our contracts with customers. As such, we generally recognize revenue upon transfer of the product to the customer's control at contractually stated pricing.
Recognize revenue when or as we satisfy a performance obligation. We generally satisfy performance obligations at a point in time upon either shipment or delivery of goods, in accordance with the terms of each contract with the customer. We do not have significant service revenue.

Cost of Sales
We include product costs such material, direct labor, overhead costs, production-related depreciation expense, outside labor and production supplies in cost of sales.
Shipping and Handling
Shipping and handling charges are generally incurred at the customer’s expense. However, when billed to our customers, shipping and handling charges are included in net sales for the applicable period, and the corresponding shipping and handling expense is reported in cost of sales.
Research and Development
Research and development expenditures are charged to operations as incurred. The major components of research and development costs include consultants, outside service, and supplies.
Research and development costs for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022, were $
Income Taxes
The Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of certain assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified according to the financial statement classification of the assets and liabilities generating the differences. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The ASC prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The ASC provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. At March 31, 2023, the Company had no material unrecognized tax benefits.

Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) are determined by dividing the net earnings by the weighted-average number of shares of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares used in the basic EPS calculation plus the number of common shares that would be issued assuming conversion of all potentially dilutive securities outstanding under the treasury stock method. As of March 31, 2023, and 2022, there were

Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that could be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Financial assets are marked to bid prices and financial liabilities are marked to offer prices. Fair value measurements do not include transaction costs. A fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy is defined in the following three categories:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
Level 2: Significant other observable inputs available at the measurement date, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data and reflect the use of significant management judgment.
Cash and cash equivalents, receivables, inventories, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and customer deposits approximate fair value, due to their short-term nature. The carrying value of notes payable and short and long-term debt also approximates fair value since these instruments bear market rates of interest.
Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis relate primarily to long-lived assets, intangible assets, and goodwill, which are remeasured when the derived fair value is below carrying value in the consolidated balance sheets.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued and are recognized over the employees required service period, which is generally the vesting period.

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable.
The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for potential credit losses. Therefore, management does not believe significant credit risks exist at March 31, 2023.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments in this update, among other things, require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. As a smaller reporting company, the guidance is effective for our fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company has adopted this pronouncement and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our results of operation, financial position or cash flow.

When evaluating an investment for impairment, the Company reviews factors including the length of time and extent to which fair value has been below cost basis, the financial condition of the issuer, changes in market interest rates and whether it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the investment before recovery of the investment’s cost basis. As of March 31, 2023, the Company does not consider any of its investments to be impaired.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read along with our financial statements and notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following discussion and analysis contain forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from the results, expectations and plans discussed in these forward-looking statements.
Business Overview
AmpliTech Group Inc. (“AMPG,” “AmpliTech” or the “Company”), incorporated in 2010 in the state of Nevada, is the parent company of its subsidiary, AmpliTech, Inc., and AMPG’s divisions Specialty Microwave, Spectrum Semiconductor Materials, AmpliTech Group MMIC Design Center (“AGMDC”) and AmpliTech Group True G Speed Services (‘TGSS”).
AmpliTech designs, engineers, and assembles microwave component-based low noise amplifiers (“LNA”) that meet individual customer specifications. Application of the Company’s proprietary technology results in maximum frequency gain with minimal background noise distortion as required by each customer. The Company has both domestic and international customers in such industries as aerospace, governmental, defense, and commercial satellite.
Specialty designs and manufactures passive microwave components and related subsystems that meet individual customer specifications for both domestic and international customers for use in satellite communication ground networks.
AGMDC designs, develops and manufactures state-of-the-art signal processing components for satellite and 5G communications networks, defense, space and other commercial applications, allowing the Company to market its products to wider base of customers requiring high technology in smaller packages.
Spectrum Semiconductor Materials ("SSM”), located in Silicon Valley (San Jose, CA), is a global authorized distributor of integrated circuit ("IC") packaging and lids for semiconductor device assembly, prototyping, testing, and production requirements.
In August 2022, the AmpliTech Group True G Speed Services (“TGSS”) division was formed to enable “true G speeds” to the industry. TGSS’ main function will be to plan and configure 5G radio systems and make them O-RAN compliant. TGSS will implement AmpliTech’s low noise amplifier devices in these systems to promote greater coverage, longer range and faster speeds.
Our mission is to patent our proprietary IP and trade secrets that were used in small volume niche markets and expand our capabilities through strategic partnerships, joint ventures, mergers/acquisitions with key industry leaders in the 5G/6G, quantum computing, and cybersecurity markets. We believe this will enable us to scale up our products and revenue by developing full systems and subsystems with our unique technology as a core component, which we expect will position us as a global leader in these rapidly emerging technology sectors and addresses large volume markets as well, such as cellphone handsets, laptops, server networks, and many other applications that improve everyday quality of life.
The Company’s research and development initiative to expand its product line of low noise amplifiers to include its new 5G and wireless infrastructure products and MMIC designs is progressing significantly. Our combined engineering and manufacturing resources are expected to complement the development of new subsystems for satellite, wireless, and 5G infrastructure, as well as advanced military and commercial markets.

Results of Operations
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022
Revenues
Sales decreased from $5,099,520 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, to $4,112,299 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, a decrease of $987,221 or approximately 19.36%. Sales in the amplifier and related passive microwave components and subsystems division increased by $154,044, or 14.42%, resulting primarily from an increase in telecommunication applications. Spectrum sales decreased by $1,141,265, or 28.31%, a decline attributable to a decrease in sales from international customers. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Spectrum was able to stock inventory to resell in anticipation of potential stock outages and supply chain issues. Thus, as a distributor, the effect COVID placed on the supply chain in 2021 and 2022 triggered higher demand for our integrated circuit (IC) packaging. With COVID restrictions and worldwide supply chain concerns easing, the demand for IC packaging has decreased. However, our RFQ (Request for Quote) activity remains strong which should translate into increased sales in subsequent quarters.
Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit
Cost of Goods Sold decreased from $2,775,922 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, to $2,295,768 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, a decrease of $480,154 or 17.30%. Overall, this decrease is directly related to the decline in Spectrum sales. However, AmpliTech did experience an increase in direct labor. As a result, gross profit was $1,816,531 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $2,323,598 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, a decrease of $507,067, or 21.82%. Overall, gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased to 44.17% from 45.57%. AmpliTech reported a gross profit margin of 37.80% while Spectrum’s gross profit margin was 46.87%.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $2,086,912 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, from $1,901,310 for the first three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $185,602 or approximately 9.76%. Parent company expenses such as IR/PR, D&O insurance, stock compensation and consulting have increased. The Company attended three trade shows this quarter which resulted in an increase in trade show, marketing and business development expenses. Additionally, with the relocation to the new facility, rent and utilities have increased.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenditures are charged to operations as incurred. The major components of research and development costs include consultants, outside service, and supplies.
Research and development costs for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022, were $348,730 and $413,303, respectively, a decrease of $64,573, or 15.62%, resulting from the decrease in consulting expense.

Table of Contents |
As of March 31, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $7,595,366, working capital of $17,666,377, and an accumulated deficit of $7,886,250.
As of December 31, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $13,290,222, working capital of $18,149,940, and an accumulated deficit of $7,304,284.
We intend to continue to finance our internal growth with cash on hand, cash provided from operations, borrowings, debt or equity offerings, or some combination thereof. We believe that our cash provided from operations and cash on hand will provide enough working capital to fund our operations for the next twelve months.
Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Assumptions
The SEC defines critical accounting policies as those that are, in management's view, most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and those that require significant judgment and estimates.
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including the allowance for doubtful accounts, the salability and recoverability of inventory, income taxes and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form our basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company believes there have been no significant changes during the three month period ended March 31, 2023, to the items disclosed as critical accounting policies in management’s discussion and analysis in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
We cannot predict what future laws and regulations might be passed that could have a material effect on our results of operations. We assess the impact of significant changes in laws and regulations on a regular basis and update the assumptions and estimates used to prepare our financial statements when we deem it necessary.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Smaller reporting companies are not required to provide the information required by this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
Based on that evaluation, as of March 31, 2023, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes that have affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period covered by this report.
