NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS

American Acquisition Opportunity Inc was a blank check company organized on January 20, 2021 under the laws of the State of Delaware and effectuated its Business Combination with Royalty Management Corporation (“RMC”) on October 23, 2023 and at that point changed its name to Royalty Management Holding Corporation (“RMHC” or the “Company”). On March 20, 2025, the Company changed its state of incorporation from the State of Delaware to State of Florida. The Company’s business model is to invest or purchase assets that have near and medium-term income potential to provide RMC with accretive cash flow from which it can reinvest in new assets or expand cash flow from those existing assets. These assets typically are natural resources assets (including real estate and mining permits), patents, intellectual property, and emerging technologies.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of RMHC and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2025. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 as filed on March 28, 2025.

The Company’s financial statements subsidiaries include the accounts of the Company and the merged corporation RMC, and RMC’s wholly owned subsidiary RMC Environmental Services LLC “RMC ES”) All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Earnings Per Share

The Company’s basic earnings per share (“EPS”) amounts have been computed based on the average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period and include the effect of any participating securities as appropriate. Diluted EPS includes the effect of the Company’s outstanding stock warrants, if inclusion of these items is dilutive.

Related Party Policies

In accordance with ASC 850, “Related Parties” are defined as either an executive, director or nominee, greater than 10% beneficial owner, or an immediate family member of any of the proceeding. Transactions with related parties are reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, as per internal policies.

Cash Equivalents and Concentration of Cash Balance

The Company considers all highly liquid securities with an original maturity of less than three months to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, at times, may exceed the federally insured limit of $250,000. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

Restricted Cash

At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, RMC has $195,350 respectively, in restricted cash that is at deposit with the Kentucky State Treasurer that serves as a performance bond required for a mining permit held by McCoy Elkhorn Coal LLC. (“McCoy”), a subsidiary of American Resources Corporation, which is a related party.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of cash and restricted cash reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheet for the periods ended June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Allowance for Credit Losses

In June 2016, FASB issued guidance ASC 326, “Credit Losses” which significantly changed how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that aren’t measured at fair value through net income. The most significant change in this standard is a shift from the incurred loss model to the expected loss model. Under the standard, disclosures are required to provide users of the financial statements with useful information in analyzing an entity’s exposure to credit risk and the measurement of credit losses. Financial assets held by the Company that are subject to the guidance in ASC 326 were trade accounts receivable and other accounts receivable, including interest, fees, convertible notes, and notes receivable.

Allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 amounted to $0 for both periods.

Property and Equipment

The Company records property and equipment at cost. For tools, machinery & equipment, depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

Property and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by comparison of the carrying amount to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the related assets. If these assets are determined to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the assets.

There was no impairment loss recognized during the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Costs related to maintenance and repairs which do not prolong the asset’s useful life are expensed as incurred.

The estimated useful lives are as follows:

Beneficial Conversion Features of Convertible Securities

Conversion options that are not bifurcated as a derivative pursuant to ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” and not accounted for as a separate equity component under the cash conversion guidance are evaluated to determine whether they are beneficial to the investor at inception (a beneficial conversion feature) or may become beneficial in the future due to potential adjustments. The beneficial conversion feature guidance in ASC 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options” applies to convertible stock as well as convertible debt which are outside the scope of ASC 815. A beneficial conversion feature is defined as a nondetachable conversion feature that is in the money at the commitment date. In addition, our convertible debt issuances contain conversion terms that may change upon the occurrence of a future event, such as antidilution adjustment provisions. The beneficial conversion feature guidance requires recognition of the conversion option’s in-the-money portion, the intrinsic value of the option, in equity, with an offsetting reduction to the carrying amount of the instrument. The resulting discount is amortized as a dividend over either the life of the instrument, if a stated maturity date exists, or to the earliest conversion date, if there is no stated maturity date. If the earliest conversion date is immediately upon issuance, the dividend must be recognized at inception. When there is a subsequent change to the conversion ratio based on a future occurrence, the new conversion price may trigger the recognition of an additional beneficial conversion feature on occurrence. The conversion feature is linked to the Company’s own equity value, therefore there is no requirement to quantify the beneficial conversion feature.

All convertible notes outstanding were converted at the date of Business Combination. Principal and accrued interest were converted into common shares at $6.50 per share.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue Recognition” from services provided when (a) persuasive evidence that an agreement exists; (b) the products or services has been delivered or completed; (c) the prices are fixed and determinable and not subject to refund or adjustment; and (d) collection of the amounts due is reasonably assured.

Our revenue is comprised of the performance of environmental services and royalty and lease revenue governed by the underlying contracts. The Company only has one reportable revenue segment. As of June 30, 2025, all the revenue generating activity is undertaken in eastern Kentucky, Indiana, and Limpopo, South Africa.

Deferred revenue of $17,643 is recorded at the year ended December 31, 2023, with $0 being recognized through June 30, 2024. Deferred revenue of $0 is recorded at the year ended December 31, 2024. This deferred revenue consists of an agreement with McCoy.

The following table disaggregates our revenue by major service line for the three months ended:

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value on the grant date and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Warrant Liability

The Company accounts for the Warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40-15-7D and 7F under which the Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjust the Warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in our statement of operations. The Private Warrants and the Public Warrants for periods where no observable traded price was available are valued using a Monte Carlo simulation. For periods subsequent to the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units, the Public Warrant quoted market price was used as the fair value as of each relevant date.

Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the applicable vesting period of the stock award (generally 0 to 3 years) using the straight-line method.

On December 17, 2024, the Board of Directors approved compensation to each Director in the amount of 25,000 warrants for each 2024 and 2025 board service, both at an exercise price of $1.00 per share, with a 3-year term, and such warrants will be issued immediately. Stock-based compensation to board members is accounted for under ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation”. Stock-based compensation expense related to stock awards granted to a board member is recognized based on the grant-date estimated fair values of the awards using the Black Scholes option pricing model (“Black Scholes”). The value is recognized as expense ratably over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting term of the award. We adjust the expense for actual forfeitures as they occur. Stock-based compensation expense is classified in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations based on the function to which the related services are provided.

Black-Scholes requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are expected volatility, expected option term (the time from the grant date until the options are exercised or expire) and risk-free rate. Expected volatility is determined by using the historical volatility for the Company. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of US treasury government bonds with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the option. The expected dividend yield is 0.833% based on the Company’s current dividend rate of $0.01 per year, payable calendar quarterly.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in ASC 740,Income Taxes. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates expected to be in effect during the years in which the basis differences reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is unlikely that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company assesses its income tax positions and record tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon our evaluation of the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date. In accordance with ASC 740-10, for thosetax positions where there is a greater than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, the Company’s policy is to record the largest amount of tax benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. For those income tax positions where there is less than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit will be recognized in the financial statements.

The Company has evaluated its income tax positions and has determined that it does not have any uncertain tax positions. The Company has recognized any interest and penalties related to any uncertain tax positions through its income tax expense.

The Company accounts for income taxes with the recognition of estimated income taxes payable or refundable on income tax returns for the current period and for the estimated future tax effect attributable to temporary differences and carry forwards. Measurement of deferred income items is based on enacted tax laws including tax rates, with the measurement of deferred income tax assets being reduced by available tax benefits not expected to be realized in the immediate future.

The Company expects to file U.S. federal and various state income tax returns. The Company was formed in 2021 and has filed all required tax returns. All tax periods since inception remain open to examination by the taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

The provision for income taxes was deemed to be de minimis for the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2025 and 2024.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Management has determined that the impact of the following recent FASB pronouncements will not have a material impact on the financial statements.

In November of 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” ASU 2023-07. ASU 2023-07 increases the disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments. Under ASU 2023-07, a public entity would be required to disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), a description of other segment items by reportable segment, annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets required by 280 in interim periods, any additional measures of a segment’s profit or loss used by the CODM to allocate resources, and the title and position of the CODM.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”), which requires enhanced annual disclosures with respect to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and may be adopted on a prospective or retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-07 on its consolidated financial statements and the related disclosures.

The shares may be repurchased in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, at prices that the Company deems appropriate and subject to market conditions, applicable law and other factors deemed relevant in the Company’s sole discretion. At June 30, 2025, the Company has repurchased a total of 111,777 shares of its common stock, which represents a combination of 31,777 open market purchases and 80,000 shares purchase through private transactions.

***Dividends –***The Board of Directors approved and declared a dividend of $0.0025 per share on January 30, 2025. This resulted in a total dividend of $37,410 being paid on July 14, 2025 to common stockholders on record at June 30, 2025.

Stock-based Compensation*-** ***Effective December 17, 2024, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a board compensation plan.

NOTE 12 – WARRANTS

Upon the Company initial capitalization, private warrants were issued to its founding investors. Upon the Company’s initial public offering, public warrants were issued to the participating investors. Details of each are below.

Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination and (b) one year from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any common stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the common stock underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No warrant will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue a common stock upon exercise of a warrant unless the common stock issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants.

NOTE 12 – WARRANTS (cont.)

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:

In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or its affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a Business Combination on the date of the consummation of a Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of its ordinary shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day after the day on which the Company consummates its Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

The Private Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Warrants and the common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Private Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable, except as described above, so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

NOTE 12 – WARRANTS (cont.)

The Company uses the black Scholes option pricing model to value its warrants and options. The significant inputs are as follows:

NOTE 13 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company follows the guidance in ASC 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually.

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

On October 18, 2021, the Company acquired 250,000 LBX Tokens which were initially recorded at their purchase price of $8 per token. During 2022, the value of the LBX Tokens were written to $0 to reflect that there was no market for the tokens. No cash consideration was given but a convertible note in the amount of $2,000,000 and 76,924 warrants (Warrant “A-2”) were issued to Westside Advisors LLC. The note and the warrant were converted into shares of the Company as part of the Business Combination on October 31, 2023. The balance is $0 at both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

The following table presents information about the Company’s liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

The Warrants were accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities on our accompanying June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 consolidated balance sheets. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the consolidated statement of operations.

The Private Warrants were initially valued using a Modified Black Scholes Option Pricing Model, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement. The Modified Black Scholes model’s primary unobservable input utilized in determining the fair value of the Private Warrants is the expected volatility of the common stock. The expected volatility as of the IPO date was derived from observable public warrant pricing on comparable ‘blank-check’ companies without an identified target. The expected volatility as of subsequent valuation dates was implied from the Company’s own Public Warrant pricing. A Monte Carlo simulation methodology was used in estimating the fair value of the Public Warrants for periods where no observable traded price was available, using the same expected volatility as was used in measuring the fair value of the Private Warrants. For periods subsequent to the detachment of the warrants from the Units, the close price of the public warrant price was used as the fair value as of each relevant date.

NOTE 13 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS(cont.)

The following tables present the changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities:

NOTE 14 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the course of normal operations, the Company is involved in various claims and litigation that management intends to defend. The range of loss, if any, from potential claims cannot be reasonably estimated. However, management believes the ultimate resolution of matters will not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business or financial position.

Right of First Refusal

For a period beginning on March 21, 2021 and ending 24 months from the closing of a business combination, we have granted the Representative a right of first refusal to act as sole book runner, and/or sole placement agent, at the representative’s sole discretion, for each and every future public and private equity and debt offering, including all equity linked financings for us or any of our successors or subsidiaries. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(f)(2)(E)(i), such right of first refusal shall not have a duration of more than three years from the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

NOTE 15 – SEGMENT REPORT

The Company operates and evaluates its business as a single reportable segment. This segment invests or purchases assets that have near and medium-term income potential to provide the Company with accretive cash flow from which it can reinvest in new assets or expand cash flow from those existing assets. This single segment is identified because it engages in business activities in which it generates revenues and expenses, its performance is reviewed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer who is the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), and it has distinct financial information available. The CODM assesses performance of the reportable segment and decides how to allocate resources based on consolidated net income, which is also reported on the consolidated statements of operations. The CODM uses this information to compare actual results against expectations in assessing the performance of the segment. The Company’s long-lived assets and its revenues are located in the United States. The accounting policies of the reportable segment are the same as those described in Note 2. The total segment assets are the same as the consolidated total assets reported on the consolidated balance sheets. Refer to the consolidated statements of operations for the details of this reportable segment.

NOTE 16 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 2, 2025, the Company completed its purchase of 161,875 common stock shares from a shareholder through a privately negotiated transaction. The common stock, along with the 31,177 shares of common stock the Company purchased in the open market thus far, have been transferred to our transfer agent and retired from the shares outstanding of the Company.
