ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

Our Business

Company Background and History

Alpine 4 Technologies Ltd. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 22, 2014. The Company was formed to serve as a vehicle to effect an asset acquisition, merger, exchange of capital stock, or other business combination with a domestic or foreign business. As of the date of this Report, the Company is a technology holding company owning three companies (ALTIA, LLC, Quality Circuit Assembly, Inc., and Horizon Well Testing, LLC.)

Who We Are

Alpine 4 is a publicly held enterprise with four principles at the core of its business: Synergy, Innovation, Drive, and Excellence (S.I.D.E.). At Alpine 4, we believe synergistic innovation drives excellence. By anchoring these words to our combined experience and capabilities, we are able to aggressively pursue opportunities within and across vertical markets. We deliver solutions that not only drive industry standards, but also increase value for our shareholders.

At Alpine 4, we understand the nature of how technology and innovation can accentuate a business. We strive to develop strategic synergies between our holdings to create value and operational excellence within a unique long-term perspective.

Our Strategy

Alpine 4's strategy is to provide Fortune 500-level execution strategies in its subsidiary companies and market segments to businesses and companies that have the most to benefit from this access.

Alpine 4 feels this opportunity exists in smaller middle market operating companies with revenues between $5 to $150 million. In this target rich environment, businesses generally sell at more reasonable multiples, presenting greater opportunities for operational and strategic improvements and have greater potential for growth. Implementation of our strategy within our holdings is accomplished by the offering of strategic and tactical MBA-level training and development, delivered via the following modules:

-	Alpine 4 Mini MBA program; and

-	An Alpine 4 developed ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning system) and collaboration system called SPECTRUMebos. SPECTRUMebos is what we are defining as an Enterprise Business Operating System (ebos). This system will combine the key technology software components of Accounting and Financial Reporting, an Enterprise Resource Planning System (ERP), a Document Management System (DMS), a Business Intelligence (BI) platform and a Customer Resource Management (CRM) hub which will be tethered to management reporting and collaboration toolsets. Management believes that these tools will help drive real-time information in two directions: first, to the front lines by empowering customer-facing stakeholders; and second, back to management for planning, problem solving, and integration. Management believes that SPECTRUMebos will be the technology "secret sauce" in managing our portfolio of companies and, in time, will be an offering to external customers.

All great strategies must have trades offs. Therefore, Alpine 4 avoids companies that have unionized employees, businesses that have more than $150 million in revenue and companies that reside in highly regulated business industries.

Diversification

It is our goal to help drive Alpine 4 into a leading multi-faceted holding company with diverse products and services that not only benefit from one another as whole but also have the benefit of independence. This type of corporate structure is about having our subsidiaries prosper through strong onsite leadership, while working synergistically with other Alpine 4 holdings. Alpine 4 has been set up with a holding company model, with Presidents who will run each business, and Managers with specific industry related experience who, along with Kent Wilson, the CEO of Alpine 4, will help guide our portfolio of companies as needed. Alpine 4 will work with our Presidents and Managers to ensure that our motto of S.I.D.E (Synergistic, Innovation, Drives, Excellence) is utilized. Further, we plan to work with our subsidiaries and capital partners to provide the proper capital allocation and, to work to make sure each business is executing at high levels.

In 2016, we saw the beginning of our plan for diversification take hold with the acquisition of Quality Circuit Assembly, Inc. ("QCA") when Alpine 4 acquired 100% of QCA's stock effective April 1, 2016. Additional information relating to our acquisition of QCA can be found in our Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on March 15, 2016.

In October of 2016, Alpine 4 formed a new Limited Liability Company called ALTIA (Automotive Logic & Technology In Action) to create an independent subsidiary for Alpine 4's 6 ^th Sense Auto product and its BrakeActive product.

Effective, January 1, 2017, Alpine 4 acquired 100% of Horizon Well Testing, LLC ("Horizon"). Additional information about the acquisition of Horizon can be found in our Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 8, 2016, and January 13, 2017.

Finally, we have entered into two additional LOI's to acquire two different companies, and will provide additional disclosures relating to those transactions as they progress.

Recent Developments

Acquisition of Horizon Well Testing

On November 30, 2016, Alpine 4 entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "HWT SPA") with Horizon Well Testing, L.L.C., an Oklahoma company ("HWT") and its sole shareholder, Alan Martin ("HWT Seller"). Effective as of January 1, 2017, Alpine 4 acquired and took full control of HWT.

Since 2010, HWT has been providing services to the Oil and Gas industry. This acquisition is another step in Alpine 4's strategy of diversification through acquisitions.

Pursuant to the HWT SPA, Alpine 4, HWT and HWT Seller agreed on the terms pursuant to which Alpine 4 would purchase from HWT Seller all of the outstanding shares of common stock of HWT (the "HWT Stock"). The purchase price paid by Alpine 4 for the HWT Stock consisted of cash, a note, a convertible note, and securities consideration. The "Cash Consideration" paid was $2,200,000. The "Note" consisted of a secured note in the amount of $300,000, secured by a subordinated security interest in the assets of HWT. The Note bears interest at 1% and will be payable in full by April 30, 2017. The "Convertible Note" consisted of a secured convertible note in the amount of $1,500,000, secured by a subordinated security interest in the assets of HWT. The HWT Seller has the opportunity to convert the Convertible Note into shares of Alpine 4's Class A common stock at a conversion price of $8.50 after a restricted period according to securities laws. The Convertible Note bears interest at 5% and is payable in full with a balloon payment on the 18-month anniversary of the closing date of the transaction with no monthly payments. The "Securities" consisted of two components, an aggregate of 379,403 shares of alpine 4s Class A common stock issued to the Seller, and a warrant to purchase an additional 75,000 shares of Class A common stock.

In the HWT SPA, Mr. Martin acknowledged and agreed that his entry into consulting agreements with Alpine 4 was an integral part of the transaction contemplated by the HWT SPA. As such, Mr. Martin agreed to enter into consulting agreements with Alpine 4 and HWT, and continue to work with HWT for a period of time agreed upon by Alpine 4 and Mr. Martin.

Change in Capital Structure

Effective November 1, 2016, pursuant to the approved amendment for a reverse split, Alpine 4 issued one (1) new share for each ten (10) old share of the Company's commons stock. The reverse split only reduced the number of outstanding shares of class A and Class B common stock and did not correspondingly reduce the number of Class a and Class B commons shares authorized for issuance, which remained at 500,000,000 and 100,000,000 respectively.

Common Stock

Voting Rights

Holders of our Class A and Class B common stock have identical rights, except that holders of our Class A common stock are entitled to one vote per share and holders of our Class B common stock are entitled to ten votes per share. Holders of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock will vote together as a single class on all matters (including the election of directors) submitted to a vote of stockholders, unless otherwise required by law. We have not provided for cumulative voting for the election of directors in our certificate of incorporation.

Dividends

Subject to preferences that may apply to any shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, the holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock shall be entitled to share equally in any dividends that our board of directors may determine to issue from time to time. In the event a dividend is paid in the form of shares of common stock or rights to acquire shares of common stock, the holders of Class A common stock shall receive Class A common stock, or rights to acquire Class A common stock, as the case may be, and the holders of Class B common stock shall receive Class B common stock, or rights to acquire Class B common stock, as the case may be.

Liquidation Rights

Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock shall be entitled to share equally all assets remaining after the payment of any liabilities and the liquidation preferences on any outstanding preferred stock.

Conversion

Our Class A common stock is not convertible into any other shares of our capital stock.

Each share of Class B common stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into one share of Class A common stock. In addition, each share of Class B common stock shall convert automatically into one share of Class A common stock upon any transfer, whether or not for value, except for certain transfers described in our certificate of incorporation.

Once transferred and converted into Class A common stock, the Class B common stock shall not be reissued. No class of common stock may be subdivided or combined unless the other class of common stock concurrently is subdivided or combined in the same proportion and in the same manner.

The foregoing description of the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Amendment attached as Exhibit 3.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 27, 2015, and incorporated therein by reference.

Employees

As of the date of this Report, we had 63 full-time and 5 part-time employees. We believe our relationships with our employees is good. Other than as disclosed in this Report, we have no employment agreements with our employees.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Because of the following factors, as well as other factors affecting the Company's financial condition and operating results, past financial performance should not be considered to be a reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH ALPINE 4:

Alpine 4 is an "emerging growth company," and the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to "emerging growth companies" could make our common stock less attractive to investors.

Alpine 4 is an "emerging growth company," as defined in the JOBS Act. For as long as we are an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding advisory "say-on-pay" votes on executive compensation and shareholder advisory votes on golden parachute compensation. We will remain an "emerging growth company" until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year during which we have total annual gross revenues of $1 billion or more; (ii) the last date of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of common stock under the Company's first filed registration statement; (iii) the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt; and (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a "large accelerated filer" under the Exchange Act. We will be deemed a large accelerated filer on the first day of the fiscal year after the market value of our common equity held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million, measured on October 31.

We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive to the extent we rely on the exemptions available to emerging growth companies. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. An emerging growth company can therefore delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.

A Company that elects to be treated as an emerging growth company shall continue to be deemed an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year during which it had total annual gross revenues of $1,000,000,000 (as indexed for inflation), (ii) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of common stock under the Company's first filed registration statement; (iii) the date on which it has, during the previous 3-year period, issued more than $1,000,000,000 in non-convertible debt; or (iv) the date on which is deemed to be a 'large accelerated filer' as defined by the SEC, which would generally occur upon it attaining a public float of at least $700 million.

However, we are choosing to "opt out" of such extended transition period, and as a result, we will comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that our decision to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards is irrevocable.

Our independent auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Alpine 4 has incurred net losses of $17,436,455 since inception through December 31, 2016. This net loss was primarily driven in 2015 by stock issuance to employees. Because we have yet to attain profitable operations, in their report on our financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2016, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph regarding their substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. While we believe we will have net operating gains beginning in the second quarter of 2017, there can be no guarantee that we will be able to achieve these net operating gains. Our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to generate a profit and/or obtain necessary funding from outside sources, including obtaining additional funding from the sale of our securities, increasing sales or obtaining loan from various financial institutions where possible. Our net operating losses increase the difficulty in meeting such goals and there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful. Our financial statements contain additional note disclosures describing the management's assessment of our ability to continue as a going concern.

Management of Alpine 4 cannot guarantee that Alpine 4 will continue to generate revenues which could result in a total loss of the value of your investment if it is unsuccessful in its business plans.

Alpine 4 has generated only limited revenues during its history. Additionally, there can be no assurance that Alpine 4 will be able to continue to generate revenues or that revenues will be sufficient to maintain its business. As a result, investors or shareholders could lose all of their investment if Alpine 4 is not successful in its proposed business plans.

Alpine 4's needs could exceed the amount of time or level of experience its officers and directors may have. Alpine 4 will be dependent on key executives, and the loss of the services of the current officers and directors could severely impact Alpine 4's business operations.

Alpine 4's business plan does not provide for the hiring of any additional employees other than outlined in its plan of operations until sales will support the expense. Until that time, the responsibility of developing Alpine 4's business and fulfilling the reporting requirements of a public company will fall upon the officers and the directors. In the event they are unable to fulfill any aspect of their duties to Alpine 4, it may experience a shortfall or complete lack of sales resulting in little or no profits and eventual closure of our business.

Additionally, the management of future growth will require, among other things, continued development of Alpine 4's financial and management controls and management information systems, stringent control of costs, increased marketing activities, and the ability to attract and retain qualified management, research, and marketing personnel. The loss of key executives or the failure to hire qualified replacement personnel would compromise Alpine 4's ability to generate revenues or otherwise have a material adverse effect on Alpine 4. There can be no assurance that Alpine 4 will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.

Significant time and management resources are required to ensure compliance with public company reporting and other obligations. Taking steps to comply with these requirements will increase our costs and require additional management resources, and does not ensure that we will be able to satisfy them.

We are a publicly reporting company. As a public company, we are required to comply with applicable provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as other federal securities laws, and rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC and the various exchanges and trading facilities where our common stock may trade, which result in significant legal, accounting, administrative and other costs and expenses. These rules and requirements impose certain corporate governance requirements relating to director independence, distributing annual and interim reports, stockholder meetings, approvals and voting, soliciting proxies, conflicts of interest, and codes of conduct, depending on where our shares trade. Our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to ensure that we comply with all applicable requirements.

As we review our internal controls and procedures, we may determine that they are ineffective or have material weaknesses, which could impact the market's acceptance of our filings and financial statements.

In connection with the preparation of this Annual Report, we conducted a review of our internal control over financial reporting for the purpose of providing the management report required by these rules. During the course of our review and testing, we have identified deficiencies and have been unable to remediate them before we were required to provide the required reports. Furthermore, because we have material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, we may not detect errors on a timely basis and our financial statements may be materially misstated. Even if we are able to remediate the material weaknesses, we may not be able to conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting, which could harm our operating results, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and cause the trading price of our stock to fall. In addition, as a public company we are required to file in a timely manner accurate quarterly and annual reports with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), as amended. Any failure to report our financial results on an accurate and timely basis could result in sanctions, lawsuits, delisting of our shares from the market or trading facility where our shares may trade, or other adverse consequences that would materially harm our business.

Because Alpine 4 has shown a net loss since inception, ownership of Alpine 4 shares is highly risky and could result in a complete loss of the value of your investment if Alpine 4 is unsuccessful in its business plans.

Based upon current plans, Alpine 4 expects to incur operating losses in future periods as it incurs significant expenses associated with the growth of its business. Further, there is no guarantee that it will be successful in realizing future revenues or in achieving or sustaining positive cash flow at any time in the future. Any such failure could result in the possible closure of its business or force Alpine 4 to seek additional capital through loans or additional sales of its equity securities to continue business operations, which would dilute the value of any shares you receive in connection with the Share Exchange.

Growth and development of operations will depend on the acceptance of Alpine 4's proposed businesses. If Alpine 4's products are not deemed desirable and suitable for purchase and it cannot establish a customer base, it may not be able to generate future revenues, which would result in a failure of the business and a loss of the value of your investment.

The acceptance of Alpine 4's automotive products, and specifically the LotWatch and ServiceWatch products (now called 6 ^th Sense Auto) purchased from AutoTek, is critically important to our success. Alpine 4 cannot be certain that the services that it will be offering will be appealing and as a result there may not be any demand for these products and its sales could be limited and it may never realize any revenues. In addition, there are no assurances that if we alter or change the products we offer in the future that the demand for these new products will develop and this could adversely affect our business and any possible revenues.

If demand for the products Alpine 4 plans to offer slows, then its business would be materially affected, which could result in the loss of your entire investment.

Demand for products which we intend to sell depends on many factors, including:

-	the number of customers Alpine 4 is able to attract and retain over time;

-	the economy, and in periods of rapidly declining economic conditions, customers may defer purchases of new vehicles, which will impact the sales and deployment of products such as ours;

-	the competitive environment in the automotive aftermarket product market may force us to reduce prices below our desired pricing level or increase promotional spending; and

-	the ability to anticipate changes in consumer preferences and to meet customers' needs in a timely cost effective manner.

For the long term, demand for the products we plan to offer may be affected by:

-	the ability to establish, maintain and eventually grow market share in a competitive environment.

-	delivery of its information globally, geopolitical changes, changes in liquor regulations, currency fluctuations, natural disasters, pandemics and other factors beyond our control may increase the cost of items it purchases, create communication issues or render product delivery difficult which could have a material adverse effect on its sales and profitability.

All of these factors could result in immediate and longer term declines in the demand for the products we plan to offer, which could adversely affect our sales, cash flows and overall financial condition. Holders of Alpine 4 Common Stock could lose their entire investment as a result.

Alpine 4 has limited management resources, and will be dependent on key executives. The loss of the services of the current officers and directors could severely impact Alpine 4's business operations and future development, which could result in a loss of revenues and adversely impact the ability to ever sell any Exchange Shares received through participation in the Share Exchange.

Alpine 4 is relying on a small number of key individuals to implement its business and operations and, in particular, the professional expertise and services of Kent B. Wilson, our President, Chief Executive Officer, and Secretary, David Schmitt, our Chief Financial Officer, and Charles Winters, our Chairman of the Board of Directors. Mr. Wilson intends to serve full time in his capacities with Alpine 4 to work to develop and grow the Company. Nevertheless, Alpine 4 may not have sufficient managerial resources to successfully manage the increased business activity envisioned by its business strategy. In addition, Alpine 4's future success depends in large part on the continued service of Mr. Wilson and Mr. Schmitt. If they choose not to serve as officers or if they are unable to perform their duties, this could have an adverse effect on Company business operations, financial condition and operating results if we are unable to replace Mr. Wilson, Mr. Schmitt or Mr. Winters with other individuals qualified to develop and market our business. The loss of their services could result in a loss of revenues, which could result in a reduction of the value of any ownership of Alpine 4.

Competition that Alpine 4 faces is varied and strong.

Alpine 4's subsidiaries' products and industries as a whole are subject to competition. There is no guarantee that we can sustain our market position or expand our business.

We compete with a number of entities in providing products to our customers. Such competitor entities include a variety of large nationwide corporations, including but not limited to public entities and companies that have established loyal customer bases over several decades.

Many of our current and potential competitors are well established and have significantly greater financial and operational resources, and name recognition than we have. As a result, these competitors may have greater credibility with both existing and potential customers. They also may be able to offer more competitive products and services and more aggressively promote and sell their products. Our competitors may also be able to support more aggressive pricing than we will be able to, which could adversely affect sales, cause us to decrease our prices to remain competitive, or otherwise reduce the overall gross profit earned on our products.

Our success in business and operations will depend on general economic conditions.

The success of Alpine 4 and its subsidiaries depends, to a large extent, on certain economic factors that are beyond its control. Factors such as general economic conditions, levels of unemployment, interest rates, tax rates at all levels of government, competition and other factors beyond Alpine 4's control may have an adverse effect on the ability of our subsidiaries to sell its products, to operate, and to collect sums due and owing to them.

Alpine 4 may not be able to successfully implement its business strategy, which could adversely affect its business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. If Alpine 4 cannot successfully implement its business strategy, it could result in the loss of the value of your investment.

Successful implementation of our business strategy depends on our being able to acquire additional businesses and grow our existing subsidiaries, as well as on factors specific to the industries in which our subsidiaries operate, and the state of the financial industry and numerous other factors that may be beyond our control. Adverse changes in the following factors could undermine our business strategy and have a material adverse effect on our business, our financial condition, and results of operations and cash flow:

o	The competitive environment in the industries in which our subsidiaries operate that may force us to reduce prices below the optimal pricing level or increase promotional spending;

o	Our ability to anticipate changes in consumer preferences and to meet customers' needs for our products in a timely cost effective manner; and

o	Our ability to establish, maintain and eventually grow market share in these competitive environments.

Our revenue growth rate depends primarily on our ability to satisfy relevant channels and end-customer demands, identify suppliers of our necessary ingredients and to coordinate those suppliers, all subject to many unpredictable factors.

We may not be able to identify and maintain the necessary relationships with suppliers of product and services as planned. Delays or failures in deliveries could materially and adversely affect our growth strategy and expected results. As we supply more customers, our rate of expansion relative to the size of such customer base will decline. In addition, one of our biggest challenges is securing an adequate supply of suitable product. Competition for product is intense, and commodities costs subject to price volatility.

Our ability to execute our business plan also depends on other factors, including:

o	ability to keep satisfied vendor relationships

o	hiring and training qualified personnel in local markets;

o	managing marketing and development costs at affordable levels;

o	cost and availability of labor;

o	the availability of, and our ability to obtain, adequate supplies of ingredients that meet our quality standards; and

o	securing required governmental approvals in a timely manner when necessary.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

Alpine 4 stockholders, and others who choose to purchase shares of Alpine 4 common stock if and when offered, may have difficulty in reselling their shares due to the limited public market or state Blue Sky laws.

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC market. Current Alpine 4 stockholders and persons who desire to purchase them in any trading market should be aware that there might be additional significant state law restrictions upon the ability of investors to resell our shares. Accordingly, investors should consider any secondary market for our securities to be a limited one.

Sales of our common stock under Rule 144 could reduce the price of our stock.

Under Rule 144 affiliates of Alpine 4 may not sell more than one percent of the total issued and outstanding shares in any 90-day period and must resell the shares in an unsolicited brokerage transaction at the market price. If substantial amounts of our common stock become available for resale under Rule 144 once a market has developed for our common stock, the then-prevailing market prices for our common stock may be reduced.

We may, in the future, issue additional securities, which would reduce our stockholders' percent of ownership and may dilute our share value.

Our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended to date, authorizes us to issue 500,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, and 100,000,000 shares of Class B common stock. As of the date of this Annual Report, we had 21,891,852 shares of Class A common stock outstanding, and 1,600,000 shares of Class B common stock outstanding. Accordingly, we may issue up to an additional 478,108,148 shares of Class A common stock, and an additional 98,400,000 shares of Class B common stock. The future issuance of additional shares of Class A common stock may result in additional dilution in the percentage of our Class A common stock held by our then existing stockholders. We may value any Class A common stock issued in the future on an arbitrary basis including for services or acquisitions or other corporate actions that may have the effect of diluting the value of the shares held by our stockholders, and might have an adverse effect on any trading market for our Class A common stock. Additionally, our board of directors may designate the rights terms and preferences of one or more series of preferred stock at its discretion including conversion and voting preferences without prior notice to our stockholders. Any of these events could have a dilutive effect on the ownership of our shareholders, and the value of shares owned.

Raising additional capital or purchasing businesses through the issuance of common stock will cause dilution to our existing stockholders.

We may seek additional capital through a combination of private and public equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, and strategic and licensing arrangements, as well as issuing stock to make additional business or asset acquisitions. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of common stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into common stock or through the issuance of equity for purchases of businesses or assets, your ownership interest in Alpine 4 will be diluted.

Raising additional capital may restrict our operations or require us to relinquish rights.

We may seek additional capital through a combination of private and public equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, and strategic and licensing arrangements. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of common stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into common stock, the terms of any such securities may include liquidation or other preferences that materially adversely affect your rights as a stockholder. Debt financing, if available, would increase our fixed payment obligations and may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds through collaboration, strategic partnerships and licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our intellectual property, future revenue streams or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.

Market volatility may affect our stock price and the value of your shares.

The market price for our common stock is likely to be volatile, in part because the volume of trades of our common stock. In addition, the market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, most of which we cannot control, including, among others:

·	announcements of new products, brands, commercial relationships, acquisitions or other events by us or our competitors;

·	regulatory or legal developments in the United States and other countries;

·	fluctuations in stock market prices and trading volumes of similar companies;

·	g eneral market conditions and overall fluctuations in U.S. equity markets;

·	variations in our quarterly operating results;

·	changes in our financial guidance or securities analysts' estimates of our financial performance;

·	changes in accounting principles;

·	our ability to raise additional capital and the terms on which we can raise it;

·	sales of large blocks of our common stock, including sales by our executive officers, directors and significant stockholders;

·	additions or departures of key personnel;

·	discussion of us or our stock price by the press and by online investor communities; and

·	other risks and uncertainties described in these risk factors.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports or publish misleading, inaccurate or unfavorable research about us, our business or our market, our stock price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our common stock will be influenced by the research and reports that securities or industry analysts may publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. We currently have limited coverage and may never obtain increased research coverage by securities and industry analysts. If no or few securities or industry analysts cover our company, the trading price and volume of our stock would likely be negatively impacted. If we obtain securities or industry analyst coverage and if one or more of the analysts who covers us downgrades our stock or publishes inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, or provides more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, our stock price would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of us or fails to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our stock could decrease, which could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.

Future sales of our common stock may cause our stock price to decline.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market or the perception that these sales might occur could significantly reduce the market price of our common stock and impair our ability to raise adequate capital through the sale of additional equity securities.

Our compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC rules concerning internal controls may be time consuming, difficult and costly.

Alpine 4's executive officers do not have experience being officers of a public company. It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by Sarbanes-Oxley. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance staff in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures. If we are unable to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley's internal controls requirements, we may not be able to obtain the independent accountant certifications that Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires publicly-traded companies to obtain.

Alpine 4 may issue Preferred Stock with voting and conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of Common Stock.

Alpine 4's Board of Directors may issue Preferred Stock with voting and conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of Common Stock. Any such provision may be deemed to have a potential anti-takeover effect, and the issuance of Preferred Stock in accordance with such provision may delay or prevent a change of control of Alpine 4. The Board of Directors also may declare a dividend on any outstanding shares of Preferred Stock. All outstanding shares of Preferred Stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

Issuance of Equity Securities in Horizon Transaction

In connection with the acquisition of Horizon Well Testing, L.L.C. ("HWT"), described in more detail above under "Recent Developments," Alpine 4 purchased all of the outstanding stock of HWT (the "HWT Stock") from Alan Martin (the "Seller"). The purchase price paid by Alpine 4 for the HWT Stock consisted of cash, a note, a convertible note, and securities consideration. The "Cash Consideration" paid was $2,200,000. The "Note" consisted of a secured note in the amount of $300,000, secured by a subordinated security interest in the assets of HWT. The Note bears interest at 1% and will be payable in full by April 30, 2017. The "Convertible Note" consisted of a secured convertible note in the amount of $1,500,000, secured by a subordinated security interest in the assets of HWT. The HWT Seller has the opportunity to convert the Convertible Note into shares of Alpine 4's Class A common stock at a conversion price of $8.50 after a restricted period according to securities laws.

Overview and Highlights

Company Background

Alpine 4 Technologies Ltd. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 22, 2014. The Company was formed to serve as a vehicle to affect an asset acquisition, merger, exchange of capital stock, or other business combination with a domestic or foreign business. As of the date of this Report, the Company is a technology holding company owning three companies (ALTIA, LLC; Quality Circuit Assembly, Inc. ("QCA"); and Horizon Well Testing, LLC). For 2016, QCA made up most of the revenue for the consolidated financial statements. Horizon Well Testing was not acquired until January 1, 2017, so it is not combined in our 2016 or 2015 financial statements.

The Company owns no real estate or personal property. The Company selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

Business Strategy

Alpine 4's strategy is to provide Fortune 500-level execution strategies in its subsidiary companies and market segments to businesses and companies that have the most to benefit from this access.

-	Alpine 4 Mini MBA program; and

-	An Alpine 4 developed ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning system) and collaboration system called SPECTRUMebos. SPECTRUMebos is what we are defining as an Enterprise Business Operating System (ebos). This system will combine the key technology software components of Accounting and Financial Reporting, an Enterprise Resource Planning System (ERP), a Document Management System (DMS), a Business Intelligence (BI) platform and a Customer Resource Management (CRM) hub which will be tethered to management reporting and collaboration toolsets. Management believes that these tools will help drive real-time information in two directions: first, to the front lines by empowering customer-facing stakeholders; and second, back to management for planning, problem solving, and integration. Management believes that SPECTRUMebos will be the technology "secret sauce" in managing our portfolio of companies and, in time, will be an offering to external customers.

Business Seasonality and Product Introductions

Following the acquisition of the Quality Circuit Assembly, Inc. and Horizon Well Testing, LLC and with the newly acquired dealership pilot and contract for ALTIA, LLC, the Company expects to experience higher net sales in its second and third quarters compared to other quarters in its fiscal year. Each company has varying seasonality to their sales and will be reflected in the financial statements.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses since inception and had accumulated a deficit of $17,436,455 as of December 31, 2016. The Company requires capital for its contemplated operational and marketing activities. The Company's ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of common stock is unknown. The obtainment of additional financing, the successful development of the Company's contemplated plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors rai se substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result f rom the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties. However, management believes we will have net operating gains beginning in the second quarter of 2017 and our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to generate a profit and/or obtain necessary funding from outside sources, including obtaining additional funding from the sale of our securities, increasing sales or obtaining loan from various financial institutions where possible. Our net operating losses increase the difficulty in meeting such goals and there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful. Our financial statements contain additional note disclosures describing the management's assessment of our ability to continue as a going concern.

In order to mitigate the risk related with this uncertainty, the Company plans to issue additional shares of common stock for cash and services during the next 12 months.

Results of Operations

Explanatory Note

The consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report are presented under predecessor entity reporting and because the Company, as the acquiring entity in the QCA Transaction, had nominal operations as compared with the acquired company, QCA, prior historical information of the acquirer is not presented.

This new basis of accounting was created on April 1, 2016, the effective date for financial reporting purposes of the stock purchase agreement. In the following discussion, the results of the operations and cash flows for the periods ended on or prior to March 31, 2016, and the financial position of QCA as of balance sheet date on or prior to March 31, 2016 are referred to as "Predecessor" financial information, and the results of operations and cash flows of the Company for periods beginning April 1, 2016 and the financial position of the Company as of April 1, 2016 and subsequent balance sheet dates are referred to herein as "Successor" consolidated financial information.

Financial statements and information are presented for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 (Predecessor), and the nine months ended December 31, 2016 (Successor). Due to this there is some lack of comparability.

Revenue

Our revenues for the year ended December 31, 2015 (Predecessor) and for the nine months ended December 31, 2016 (Successor), were $7,513,844 and $6,072,384, respectively. We expect our revenue to grow significantly over the next 12 months. Management's expectations of growth in revenues is based on multiple areas. First, management believes that its contacts within the automobile dealership industry, and the anticipated increase in interest in Alpine 4's products and services as Alpine 4 increases its advertising and brand and product/service awareness campaigns will produce increased revenues as the Company engages more dealerships with the Alpine 4 products. Second, management anticipates continued growth of QCA through new customers and internal growth. Third, management plans to continue the Company's focus on finding and acquiring companies.

Cost of Revenue

Our cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2015 (Predecessor), and for the nine months ended December 31, 2016 (Successor), were $5,736,354 and $4,239,850, respectively. We expect our cost of revenue to increase over the next 12 months as our revenue increases.

General and administrative expenses

Our general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2015 (Predecessor), and for the nine months ended December 31, 2016 (Successor), were $1,404,526 and $3,847,876, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2015 (Predecessor), and for the nine months ended December 31, 2016 (Successor), $0 and $1,866,039 of our general and administrative expenses were non-cash expenses related to the issuance of our common stock for services, of which $1,275,000 was for employees. The significant increase in general and administrative expenses is due to the issuance of common stock for services and the expansion of our business in 2016. We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase significantly over the next 12 months as we ramp up our operations. As we increase our advertising and brand and product/service awareness campaigns and as we hire additional personnel as needed and as operations permit, management anticipates that such actions will result in significantly increased expenses to the Company. The addition of more dealerships also will increase expenses relating to installations, customer management, and operational costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have financed our operations since inception from the sale of common stock, capital contributions from stockholders and from the issuance of notes payable and convertible notes payable. We expect to continue to finance our operations by selling shares of our common stock and by generating income from the sale of our products. As noted above, management's expectations of growth in revenues is based on management's contacts within the automobile dealership industry, and the anticipated increase in interest in Alpine 4's products and services as Alpine 4 increases its advertising and brand and product/service awareness campaigns. Additionally, management anticipates that the new campaigns will result in the Company's adding new dealerships in 2017.

Management expects to have sufficient working capital for continuing operations from either the sale of its products or through the raising of additional capital through private offerings of our securities. Additionally, as of the date of this Report, the Company was in negotiations to acquire additional businesses, which management believes will provide additional operating revenues to the Company. There can be no guarantee that the planned acquisitions will close or that they will produce the anticipated revenues on the schedule anticipated by management, or at all.

The Company also may elect to seek bank financing or to engage in debt financing through a placement agent. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient capital from operations or through sales of its securities or other means, we may need to delay implementation of our business plans.

Contractual Obligations

Our significant contractual obligations as of December 31, 2016, were as follows:

	Payments due by Period
	Less than One Year		One to Three Years		Three to Five Years		More Than Five Years		Total
Notes payable, related parties	$	205,000	$	-	$	-	$	-	$	205,000
Notes payable, non-related parties		1,332,031		107,270		39,809				1,479,110
Convertible notes payable		254,780		1,760,198						2,014,978
Interest on notes		19,262								19,262
Total	$	1,811,073	$	1,867,468	$	39,809	$	-	$	3,718,350

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has not entered into any transactions with unconsolidated entities whereby the Company has financial guarantees, subordinated retained interests, derivative instruments, or other contingent arrangements that expose the Company to material continuing risks, contingent liabilities, or any other obligation under a variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk, or credit risk support to the Company.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") and the Company's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and operating results require the Company's management to make judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the amounts reported in its condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," of this Form 10-K describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates and such differences may be material.

Management believes the Company's critical accounting policies and estimates are those related to revenue recognition and inventory valuation. Management considers these policies critical because they are both important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and operating results, and they require management to make judgments and estimates about inherently uncertain matters.

Revenue Recognition

ALTIA

The Company accounts for its revenue per the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 605-25-25 by allocating the total contract amount between the product and service elements. When a vehicle is sold to the driving consumer who purchases the 6 ^th Sense Auto service, the cost of the service is added to the price of the car and the amount collected by the dealership for this service is remitted to the Company. At the time of the vehicle is purchased, the Company recognizes the service portion of the contract over the service period of generally 12 to 36 months.

Quality Circuit Assembly

The Company accounts for its revenue per the guidance in ASC 605-25-25 by allocating the total contract amount between the product and service elements. Revenue is recognized when either the product has completely been built and shipped or the service has been completed. If a deposit for product or service is received prior to completion the payment is recorded to deferred revenue until such point the product or services meets our revenue recognition policy. There is an implied warranty on all our services and production. If a customer is unsatisfied with our work then we will redo the work until the customer is satisfied. Any returns are credited to the customer until the rework is completed and then reinvoiced to the customer. Management assess the materiality and likelihood of warranty work and records reserves as needed. For all periods presented the warrant reserve assessment was immaterial.

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 (Successor), and December 31, 2015 (Predecessor). Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Basis of presentation

The accompanying financial statements present the balance sheets, statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows of the Company. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates and judgments are based on historical information, information that is currently available to the Company and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed when incurred. All advertising takes place at the time of expense. We have no long-term contracts for advertising. Advertising expense for all periods presented were under $10,000.

Cash

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term investments with original maturities of less than 90 days. Cash equivalents are placed with high credit quality financial institutions and are primarily in money market funds. The carrying value of those investments approximates fair value. As of December 31, 2016 (Successor) and 2015 (Predecessor), the Company had no cash equivalents.

Major Customers

For all periods presented the Company had two customers that made up approximately 50% of total revenues. All other customers were less than 10% each of total revenues in each period.

For all periods presented the Company had two customers that made up approximately 50% of outstanding accounts receivable. All other customers were less than 10% each of total accounts receivable for each period presented.

Accounts Receivable

The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Reserves are recorded primarily on a specific identification basis. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, we had no allowance for bad debt.

Inventory

Inventory is valued at the lower of the inventory's cost (weighted average basis) or the current market price of the inventory. Management compares the cost of inventory with its market value and an allowance is made to write down inventory to market value, if lower. Inventory is segregated into four areas, raw materials, WIP, finished goods, and In-Transit. Below is a breakdown of how much inventory is in each area as of December 31, 2016 (Successor), and December 31, 2015 (Predecessor).

	Dec 31, 2016 (Successor)		Dec 31, 2015 (Predecessor)

Raw materials		527,599		391,845
WIP		193,525		351,697
Finished goods		195,990		192,820
In Transit		13,000		13,000
	$	930,114	$	949,362

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost less depreciation. Depreciation and amortization are provided principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from ten years to 39 years as follows:

Buildings	39 years
Leasehold Improvements	15 years or time remaining on lease (whichever is shorter)
Equipment	10 years

Maintenance and repair costs are charged against income as incurred. Significant improvements or betterments are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated life of the asset.

Purchased Intangibles and Other Long-Lived Assets

The Company amortizes intangible assets with finite lives over their estimated useful lives, which range between five and fifteen years as follows:

Customer List	15 years
Non-compete agreements	5 years
Software development	5 years

Impairment of Intangibles

The Company evaluates intangible assets for impairment on a yearly basis or as needed. During the nine months ended December 31, 2016 (Successor), the period from January 1, 2016 through March 31, 2016 (Predecessor), and the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 (Predecessor), there have been no impairment losses.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Topic 360, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets". This statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when the estimated future cash flows from the use of the asset are less than the carrying amount of that asset. During the nine months ended December 31, 2016 (Successor), the period from January 1, 2016 through March 31, 2016 (Predecessor), and the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 (Predecessor), there have been no impairment losses.

Goodwill

In financial reporting, goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Events that result in an impairment review include significant changes in the business climate, declines in our operating results, or an expectation that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. We assess potential impairment by considering present economic conditions as well as future expectations. All assessments of goodwill impairment are conducted at the individual reporting unit level. As of December 31, 2016 the only reporting unit with goodwill was QCA.

The Company used qualitative factors according to ASC 350-20-35-3 to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying amount. Based on the qualitative criteria, the Company believes there not to be any triggers for potential impairment of goodwill and therefore, the Company has recorded no impairment of goodwill in any period presented.

Fair Value Measurement

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, convertible notes, notes and line of credit. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.

Leases

Leases are reviewed by management and examined to see if they are required to be categorized as an operating lease, a capital lease or a financing transaction.

Earnings (loss) per share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive securities had been issued. The only potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the periods presented were the convertible debentures, but they are anti-dilutive due to the net loss incurred. All earnings (loss) per common share have been adjusted retroactively for periods presented to reflect changes in number of shares as a result of the reverse stock split amount.

Stock-based compensation

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718-10, Compensation – Stock Compensation, and the conclusions reached by FASB ASC 505-50, Equity – Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment is reached or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by FASB ASC 505-50.

Income taxes

The Company records income taxes under the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and attributable to operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Accounting standards regarding income taxes requires a reduction of the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance, if based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. Accordingly, the need to establish valuation allowances for deferred tax assets is assessed at each reporting period based on a more-likely-than-not realization threshold. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carry forward periods, the Company's experience with operating loss and tax credit carry forwards not expiring unused, and tax planning alternatives.

The Company recorded valuation allowances on the net deferred tax assets. Management will reassess the realization of deferred tax assets based on the accounting standards for income taxes each reporting period. To the extent that the financial results of operations improve and it becomes more likely than not that the deferred tax assets are realizable, the Company will be able to reduce the valuation allowance.

Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company's tax positions and determining its provision for income taxes. During the ordinary course of business, there are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Accounting standards regarding uncertainty in income taxes provides a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely, based solely on the technical merits, of being sustained on examinations. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes.

Embedded Conversion Features

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815 "Derivatives and Hedging" to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20 "Debt with Conversion and Other Options" for consideration of any beneficial conversion features.

Related Party Disclosure

FASB ASC 850, "Related Party Disclosures" requires companies to include in their financial statements disclosures of material related party transactions. The Company discloses all material related party transactions. Related parties are defined to include any principal owner, director or executive officer of the Company and any immediate family members of a principal owner, director or executive officer.

Our consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto are set forth beginning on page F-1 of this Report.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Dismissal of Anton & Chia, LLP

On December 10, 2015, the Board of Directors of Alpine 4 terminated the engagement of Anton & Chia, LLP ("Anton"), as the Company's independent certifying accountant. Other than an explanatory paragraph included in Anton's audit report for the Registrant's fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, relating to the uncertainty of the Registrant's ability to continue as a going concern, the audit report for fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. As described below, the change in independent public accounting firms is not the result of any disagreement with Anton.

Anton was appointed by the Board of Directors to be the auditor from inception of the Company, and provided an initial audit report dated May 7, 2014. There were no disagreements with Anton on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Anton, would have caused Anton to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with their report, and (2) there were no "reportable events" as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

Appointment of Malone Bailey LLP

On December 10, 2015, the Company's Board of Directors approved the engagement of Malone Bailey LLP, of Houston, Texas ("Malone Bailey"), as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.

The Company has not consulted with Malone Bailey during its two most recent fiscal years or during any subsequent interim period prior to its appointment as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on Registrant's financial statements, or any other matters or reportable events as defined in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.

The Company disclosed the change in auditors in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on December 16, 2015.

ITEM 9A.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

1. Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as of December 31, 2016. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective.

2. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the most recent fiscal year, we hired a full-time CFO to segregate duties from our Chief Executive Officer, Kent Wilson, and allow increase of controls over financial reporting. Our process for evaluating controls and procedures is continuous and encompasses constant improvement of the design and effectiveness of established controls and procedures and the remediation of any deficiencies which may be identified during this process. Upon hiring a full-time CFO, we implemented a monthly close process, segregation of duties and controls over cash and reporting.

3 . Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our 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 for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

·	pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

·	provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;

·	provide reasonable assurance that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of our management and directors; and

·	provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in "Internal Control—Integrated Framework" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

Based on this evaluation, our management determined that our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2016.

Areas of material weakness include:

·	segregation of duties

·	inadequate control activities

·	monitoring processes

4. Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Generally, disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Nevertheless, an internal control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system reflects the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls are considered relative to their costs. As noted above, we have determined that our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of December 31, 2016. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Alpine 4 Technologies, Ltd.

Phoenix, Arizona

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Alpine 4 Technologies Ltd. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company", or "Successor") as of December 31, 2016, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the period from April 1, 2016 through December 31, 2016. We have also audited the accompanying balance sheet of Quality Circuit Assembly, Inc. (the "Predecessor") as of December 31, 2015 and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended and for the period from January 1, 2016 through March 31, 2016. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the entity's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Alpine 4 Technologies Ltd. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the period from April 1, 2016 through December 31, 2016, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Further, in our opinion, the Predecessor financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Quality Circuit Assembly, Inc. as of December 31, 2015 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2015 and for the period from January 1, 2016 through March 31, 2016.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2016 (SUCCESSOR) AND 2015 (PREDECESSOR)

Note 1 – Description of Business

Alpine 4 Technologies Ltd. ("we" or the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 22, 2014. The Company was formed to serve as a vehicle to affect an asset acquisition, merger, exchange of capital stock, or other business combination with a domestic or foreign business. As of the date of this Report, the Company is a technology holding company owning three companies (ALTIA, LLC; Quality Circuit Assembly, Inc. ("QCA")_; and Horizon Well Testing, LLC). For 2016 QCA made up most of the revenue for the consolidated financials. Horizon Well Testing was not acquired until January 1, 2017, so it is not combined in our 2016 or 2015 financial statements.

Acquisition Reporting

As discussed in Note 9, the Company entered into a stock purchase transaction with QCA in which the Company purchased 100% of QCA's outstanding stock.

The consolidated financial statements herein are presented under predecessor entity reporting and because the acquiring entity had nominal operations as compared with the acquired company, QCA, prior historical information of the acquirer is not presented.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 (Successor) and December 31, 2015 (Predecessor). Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Inventory is valued at the lower of the inventory's cost (weighted average basis) or market. Management compares the cost of inventory with its market value and an allowance is made to write down inventory to market value, if lower. Inventory is segregated into four areas, raw materials, Work in Process (WIP), finished goods, and In-Transit. Below is a breakdown of how much inventory is in each area as of December 31, 2016 (Successor), and December 31, 2015 (Predecessor) .

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Topic 360, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets". This statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when the estimated future cash flows from the use of the asset are less than the carrying amount of that asset. During the nine months ended December 31, 2016 (Successor), the period from January 1, 2016 through March 31, 2016 (Predecessor) and the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 (Predecessor), there have been no impairment losses .

Goodwill

In financial reporting , goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Events that result in an impairment review include significant changes in the business climate, declines in our operating results, or an expectation that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. We assess potential impairment by considering present economic conditions as well as future expectations. All assessments of goodwill impairment are conducted at the individual reporting unit level. As of December 31, 2016, the only reporting unit with goodwill was QCA.

The Company used qualitative factors according to Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 350-20-35-3 to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying amount. Based on the qualitative criteria the company believes there not to be any triggers for potential impairment of goodwill and therefore the Company has recorded no impairment of goodwill in any period presented .

Fair Value Measurement

Revenue Recognition

ALTIA

The Company accounts for its revenue per the guidance in ASC 605-25-25 by allocating the total contract amount between the product and service elements. When a vehicle is sold to the driving consumer who purchases the 6 ^th Sense Auto service, the cost of the service is added to the price of the car and the amount collected by the dealership for this service is remitted to the Company. At the time the vehicle is purchased, the Company recognizes the service portion of the contract over the service period of generally 12 to 36 months.

Quality Circuit Assembly

The Company accounts for its revenue per the guidance in ASC 605-25-25 by allocating the total contract amount between the product and service elements. Revenue is recognized when either the product has completely been built and shipped or the service has been completed. If a deposit for product or service is received prior to completion the payment is recorded to deferred revenue until such point the product or services meets our revenue recognition policy. Management assesses the materiality and likelihood of warranty work and returns and records reserves as needed. For all periods presented management determined that the warranty and returns would be immaterial.

Leases

Leases are reviewed by management and examined to see if they are required to be categorized as an operating lease, a capital lease or a financing transaction.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09), Revenue from Contracts with Customers . ASU 2014-09 will eliminate transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 will require that companies recognize revenue based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract. The ASU also will require additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. Entities can transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. Management is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and has not determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs . Public business entities should apply the guidance in ASU 2015-03 to annual reporting periods beginning December 15, 2015. ASU 2015-03 was adopted and had no impact.

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. The amendment in this ASU defers the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 for all entities for one year. Public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans should apply the guidance in ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2016, including interim reporting periods with that reporting period.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. ASU 2015-02 provides guidance on the consolidation evaluation for reporting organizations that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability corporations, and securitization structures (collateralized debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations, and mortgage-backed security transactions). ASU 2015-02 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of ASU 2015-02 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. Early adoption is permitted.

In September, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805). Topic 805 requires that an acquirer retrospectively adjust provisional amounts recognized in a business combination, during the measurement period. To simplify the accounting for adjustments made to provisional amounts, the amendments in the update require that the acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amount is determined. The acquirer is required to also record, in the same period's financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. In addition an entity is required to present separately on the face of the income statement or disclose in the notes to the financial statements the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. The adoption of ASU 2015-016 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes . The new guidance requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of this ASU will have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) . The guidance in ASU No. 2016-02 supersedes the lease recognition requirements in ASC Topic 840, Leases (FAS 13) . ASU 2016-02 requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities arising from a lease for both financing and operating leases, along with additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this standard will have on its financial statements.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial statements.

Note 3 – Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The working capital of the Company is currently negative and causes doubt of the ability for the Company to continue. The Company requires capital for its operational and marketing activities. The Company's ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of common stock is unknown. The obtainment of additional financing, the successful development of the Company's plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.

In order to mitigate the risk related with this uncertainty, the Company has a three-fold plan to resolve these risks. First the acquisition of QCA has allowed for an increased level of cash flow to the Company as demonstrated in the sales for the second and third quarters of 2016. Second, the Company has acquired Horizon Well Testing and is considering other potential acquisition targets that, like QCA, will increase income and cash flow to the Company. Third, the Company plans to issue additional shares of common stock for cash and services during the next 12 months and has engaged MCAP, LLC to provide advisory services in connection with that capital raise.

Note 4 – Leases

During the nine months ending December 31, 2016 (Successor) the Company entered into a financing transaction for a building. The Company bought the property for $3,895,000 and subsequently sold the property for $7,000,000 to an unrelated third-party real estate company and simultaneously entered into an arrangement with the third-party real estate company to lease back the property. Because the leaseback was not a typical leaseback , this transaction is recorded as a financing transaction with the asset and related financing obligation recorded on the balance sheet. The lease has a 15-year term expiring in 2031 and certain default provisions requiring the Company to perform repairs and maintenance, make timely rent payments and insure the building. The Company also issued a letter of credit for $630,270 in favor of the landlord; the letter of credit is collateralized by a savings account which is classified as restricted cash under non-current assets. The remaining payments under the financing transaction as of December 31, 2016 (Successor) , totals $9,762,396. Imputed interest of $3,176,003 is being amortized over the lease term with an effective interest rate of 7.80%. The Company paid costs of $54,898 and a commission of $350,000 in conjunction with the transaction, which is characterized as debt issuance costs and will be amortized over the lease term. The current unamortized balance of the debt issuance costs is $348,542 and in accordance with ASU 2015-03 debt issuance costs are reflected as a contra-liability reducing the related financing lease obligation.

As of December 31, 2016 (Successor) , the future minimum capital lease and financing transaction payments, net of amortization of debt issuance costs, are as follows:

Fiscal Year

2017	$	571,499
2018		584,763

The Company also has a commitment to pay $276,000 towards Leasehold Improvements, of which $207,000 has been satisfied and reflected on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 (Successor).

The money received from the sale of the building was used to purchase Quality Circuit Assembly. Since this is a financing transaction the sale is recorded under financing obligation lease on the Balance Sheet and amortized over the 15-year term of the lease.

Operating Leases

The company also had two operating leases as of December 31, 2016 (Successor), for its location in San Jose, CA (QCA), and Phoenix, AZ (Alpine). Approximate monthly rent obligations are $27,500 and $3,600 respectively.

There was no monthly payment on the related party notes. The aggregate monthly payments on the unrelated party notes were $1,808.

During the nine months ended December 31, 2016 (Successor), the Company secured a line of credit with a third-party lender, of which $327,500 was received in the first quarter of 2016. This line of credit and equipment note with Celtic Capital were paid off ($1,319,122) with the proceeds from another line of credit and equipment note with Crestmark. The line of credit is collateralized by QCA's outstanding accounts receivable, up to 90%, and inventory, up to 30% with maximum draws of $2,500,000 and $300,000, respectively, and a variable interest rate. The Company also secured a five-year fixed rate (10.14%) term loan with Crestmark which is collateralized by QCA's equipment.

During the nine months ended December 31, 2016 (Successor), a note with a related party was amended with a conversion option (see Note 7 for convertible notes description). The amendment resulted in extinguishment of the original note because a conversion feature was added. Management has evaluated the conversion option for derivative accounting consideration under ASC Topic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity's Own Stock and concluded that the conversion option meets the criteria for classification in stockholders' equity. Therefore, derivative accounting is not applicable for the conversion option. Management also evaluated the conversion feature for whether it was beneficial as described in ASC Topic 470-30 and concluded it was beneficial because the conversion price at commitment date was less than the fair value of the Company's common stock. The note converted during the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 (Successor) and thus the BCF discount was expensed to interest expense in its entirety.

The secured note for $100,000 is secured by real estate in the Horizon purchase agreement.

Note 7 – Convertible Notes Payable

During the nine months ended December 31, 2016 (Successor), and year ended December 31, 2015 (Predecessor), the Company entered into convertible note agreements with investors and as consideration for an acquisition. The convertible notes are unsecured; bear interest at 5-20% annually, and are due from April 27, 2016, to July 1, 2019. All of the convertible notes payable contain a provision that allows the note holder to convert the outstanding balance into shares of the Company's common stock. Notes are convertible at $1.00 per share, except for those issued for a business acquisition, which are convertible at $10.00 per share . The debt discount, which arises from a beneficial conversion feature ("BCF") on the $1 per share investor notes, is being amortized over the terms of the convertible notes payable. Total BCF discount recognized is $115,810 for the nine months ended December 31, 2016 (Successor). For the nine months ended December 31, 2016 (Successor), the Company recognized interest expense of $274 , 615 related to the amortization of the debt discount. The unamortized balance was $7,421 as of December 31, 2016.

Note 10 – Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A full valuation allowance is established against all net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2016 (Predecessor), based on estimates of recoverability. The Company determined that such a valuation allowance was necessary given the current and expected near term losses and the uncertainty with respect to its ability to generate sufficient profits from its new business model. For the year ended December 31, 2015 (Predecessor) income tax expense was $197,386. Because of book-tax differences related to the company's long-lived assets were creditable against current year losses, there was a small adjustment of the valuation allowance, there was an income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2016 (Successor), of $52,694.

The following is a reconciliation of the difference between the effective and statutory income tax rates for years ended December 31:

Deferred income tax liabilities:
Book to tax differences for tangible and intangible assets		287,153		21,560
Total deferred income tax liabilities	$	287,153	$	21,560

The deferred tax liability is mostly made up of the difference between book and tax values for tangible and intangible fixed assets.

The Company has recorded as of December 31, 2016 a valuation allowance of $742,242 as management believes that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized in future years. Management has based its assessment on the Company's lack of profitable operating history.

The Company annually conducts an analysis of its tax positions and has concluded that it had no uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2016.

The Company has net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $1,996,644. Such amounts are subject to IRS code section 382 limitations and begin to expire in 2029. The 2014, 2015 and 2016 tax years are still subject to audit.
