ALTEX INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation. The accompanying unaudited, consolidated, condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q, and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited, consolidated, condensed financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2024, and the cash flows and results of operations for the three and nine months then ended. Such adjustments consisted only of normal recurring items. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. As of June 30, 2024, there were no potentially dilutive shares for the Company. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1 to the Company's consolidated financial statements contained in the Company's 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and it is suggested that these condensed, consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction therewith.

Note 2 - Effective April 1, 2024, the Company sold certain oil, gas, and mineral interests in Utah for $525,000 cash. As the Company had a zero-dollar basis in the interests sold, the $525,000 was recorded as a gain on sale of assets.

"SAFE HARBOR" STATEMENT UNDER THE

UNITED STATES PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995

Statements that are not historical facts contained in this Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from projected results. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, among others: general economic conditions; movements in interest rates; the market price of oil and natural gas; the risks associated with exploration and production of oil and gas; the Company's ability, or the ability of its operating subsidiary, Altex Oil Corporation ("AOC"), to find, acquire, market, develop, and produce new properties; operating hazards attendant to the oil and natural gas business; uncertainties in the estimation of proved reserves and in the projection of future rates of production and timing of development expenditures; the strength and financial resources of the Company's competitors; the Company's ability and AOC's ability to find and retain skilled personnel; climatic conditions; availability and cost of material and equipment; delays in anticipated start-up dates; environmental risks; the results of financing efforts; and other uncertainties detailed elsewhere herein and in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.

Financial Condition

Effective April 1, 2024, the Company sold certain oil, gas, and mineral interests in Utah for $525,000 cash. The Company used $68,000 cash in operating activities in the nine months ended June 30, 2024, and used $55,000 cash in operating activities in the nine months ended June 30, 2023. On October 26, 2022, the Company acquired 493,975 shares of its common stock for $44,556.55, and on November 9, 2022, the Company retired the 493,975 shares. At June 30, 2024 and 2023, $1,140,000 of accrued expenses is accrued but unpaid salary and bonus, and related accrued payroll tax liability, due to the Company's president that the Company's president has elected to defer. The Company's president may cause the Company to pay the unpaid salary and bonus and payroll tax liability at any time.

The Company is likely to experience negative cash flow from operations unless the Company invests in interests in producing oil and gas wells or in another venture that produces sufficient cash flow from operations. With the exception of capital expenditures related to production acquisitions or drilling or recompletion activities or an investment in another venture that produces cash flow from operations, none of which are currently planned, the cash flows that could result from such acquisitions, activities, or investments, and the possibility of a material change in

the current level of interest rates or of oil and gas prices, the Company knows of no trends or demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in the Company's liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way. Except for cash generated by the operation of the Company's producing oil and gas properties, asset sales, and interest income, the Company has no internal or external sources of liquidity other than its working capital. At July 26, 2024, the Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures.

Results of Operations

General and administrative expense decreased from $214,000 in the nine months ended June 30, 2023, to $171,000 in the nine months ended June 30, 2024, principally because during the quarter ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized bonus expense and related payroll tax liability of $68,000 pursuant to the president's employment agreement. Interest income increased from $27,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2023, to $34,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2024, and from $71,000 in the nine months ended June 30, 2023, to $93,000 in the nine months ended June 30, 2024, because of higher realized interest rates and higher average cash balances.

At the current levels of net oil and gas production, cash balances, interest rates, and oil and gas prices, the Company's revenue is unlikely to exceed its expenses. Unless the Company invests a substantial portion of its cash balances in interests in producing oil and gas wells or in one or more other ventures that produce revenue and net income, the Company is likely to experience net losses. With the exception of unanticipated asset retirement obligations, unanticipated environmental expense, and possible changes in interest rates and oil and gas prices, the Company is not aware of any other trends, events, or uncertainties that have had or that are reasonably expected to have a material impact on net sales or revenues or income from continuing operations.

Climate Change

The company does not believe that climate change or regulations adopted to mitigate the consequences of climate change will have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures which, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management's control objectives.

As of the end of the period covered by the report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Based upon the foregoing, the Company's Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiary) required to be included in the Company's Exchange Act reports. There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date the Company carried out its evaluation.
