Viking also entered into a Unanimous Shareholders Agreement (the “USA”) on April 1, 2025 with T&T and Simson-Maxwell. The USA governs the ownership and management of Simson-Maxwell and provides that T&T is entitled to nominate two members to Simson-Maxwell’s board of directors, and Viking is entitled to nominate one member.
Clean Energy and Carbon-Capture System:
In August 2021, Viking entered into an Exclusive Intellectual Property License Agreement (the “IPLA”) with ESG Clean Energy, LLC (“ESG”), to utilize ESG’s patent rights and know-how related to stationary electric power generation and heat and carbon dioxide capture (the “ESG Clean Energy System”). The intellectual property licensed by Viking includes the patents and/or patent applications related to this technology
The ESG Clean Energy System is designed to, among other things, generate clean electricity from internal combustion engines and utilize waste heat to capture approximately
The Company intends to sell, lease and/or sub-license the ESG Clean Energy System to third parties.
On August 13, 2025, Viking, ESG and Scuderi Group, Inc. (“Scuderi”) signed an Amendment to Exclusive Intellectual Property License Agreement pursuant to which Scuderi was added, effective as of such date, as an additional licensor or grantor, as applicable, under the IPLA, and was vested with all future rights and obligations of ESG thereunder, and Scuderi assumed all remaining duties, liabilities and benefits of ESG under the IPLA, to the same extent as ESG. Further, all general references to ESG in the IPLA are deemed to read ”ESG and Scuderi” and all provisions containing obligations of ESG are deemed to be obligations of ESG and Scuderi, jointly and severally. Scuderi is the owner of the intellectual property licensed to Viking by ESG.

Note 2. Going Concern
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements included herein 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 generated a net loss of $(
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had stockholders’ deficit of $(
These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to utilize the resources in place to generate future profitable operations, to develop additional acquisition opportunities, and to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from business operations when they come due. Management believes the Company may be able to continue to develop new opportunities and may be able to obtain additional funds through debt and / or equity financings to facilitate its business strategy; however, there is no assurance of additional funding being available. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company have to curtail operations or be unable to continue in existence.
Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Recently issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09 (“ASU 2023-09”), Income Taxes, which enhances the transparency of income tax disclosures by expanding annual disclosure requirements related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2025. It is not expected to significantly change the Company’s income tax disclosures at year end.
In June 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-05 (“ASU 2023-05”), Business Combinations (ASC Topic 805): Joint Venture Formations, which provides guidance on accounting for joint ventures established through new entities. The update mandates the application of the acquisition method of accounting for such transactions, requiring parties to recognize and measure identifiable assets and liabilities based on fair values at the acquisition date and establishes a measurement period for adjustments. The amendments in this Update are effective prospectively for all joint venture formations with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025. Adoption of the Update did not impact the Company’s financial statements for 2025.
a) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the interim reporting rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in Camber’s latest Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments (unless otherwise indicated), necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
b) Basis of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein reflect the consolidated financial results of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Viking Energy Group, Inc., Camber Permian LLC and CE Operating LLC, the wholly-owned subsidiaries of Viking (Mid-Con Petroleum, LLC, Mid-Con Drilling, LLC, Mid-Con Development, LLC, and Petrodome Energy, LLC.).

In January 2022, Viking acquired a
All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
c) Foreign Currency
Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Results of operations and cash flows of businesses conducted in foreign currency are translated using the average exchange rates throughout the period. The effect of exchange rate fluctuations on translation of assets and liabilities is included as a component of stockholders’ equity in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions have been insignificant.
d) Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and timing of revenues and expenses, the reported amounts and classification of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to the determination of the fair value of the Company’s various series of preferred stock, impairment of long-lived assets, goodwill, fair value of commodity derivatives, stock-based compensation, asset retirement obligations, and the determination of expected tax rates for future income tax recoveries.
e) Financial Instruments
Accounting Standards Codification, “ASC” Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurement” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 820-10 defines fair value and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurement. The carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for notes receivable, deposits, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, accounts payable, amount due to director, each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:
| · | Level 1: inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |
| · | Level 2: inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. |
| · | Level 3: inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable inputs to measure fair value of assets and liabilities for which there is little, if any market activity at the measurement date, using reasonable inputs and assumptions based upon the best information at the time, to the extent that inputs are available without undue cost and effort. |
The significant inputs to the Company’s derivative liability relative to the Company’s Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”) were Level 3 inputs.

f) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks and highly liquid investment securities that have original maturities of three months or less. Accounts at banks in the United States are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $
g) Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, and consist of parts, equipment and work-in-process. Work-in-process and finished goods included the cost of materials, direct labor and overhead. At the closing of each reporting period, the Company evaluates its inventory in order to adjust the inventory balance for obsolete and slow-moving items.
h) Intangible Assets
Intangible assets include amounts related to the Company’s license agreement with ESG Clean Energy, LLC, and patents and intellectual property owned by Viking Ozone, Viking Protection, Viking Sentinel and Viking Distribution.
The intangible asset related to the ESG Clean Energy license was being amortized on a straight-line basis over
The Company reviews intangible assets, at least annually, for possible impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets carrying amount may not be recoverable. In evaluating the future benefit of its intangible assets, the Company estimates the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows of the intangible assets over the remaining estimated useful life. If the carrying amount is not recoverable, an impairment loss is recorded for the excess of the carrying value of the asset over its fair value.
i) Investment in Unconsolidated Entity
The Company accounts for its investment in unconsolidated entities under the equity method of accounting when it (i) does not have a controlling financial interest and (ii) has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the entity. The investment is adjusted for its proportionate share of earnings or losses of the entity.
j) Income (Loss) per Share
Basic and diluted income (loss) per share calculations are calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share give effect to all dilutive potential shares of common stock outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted earnings per share, the average stock price for the period is used to determine the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise price of the options and warrants. Purchases of treasury stock reduce the outstanding shares commencing on the date that the stock is purchased. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the calculation when a loss is incurred as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, there were approximately
k) Stock-Based Compensation
The Company may issue stock options to employees and stock options or warrants to non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. The cost of stock options and warrants issued to employees and non-employees is measured on the grant date based on the fair value. The fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The resulting amount is charged to expense on the straight-line basis over the period in which the Company expects to receive the benefit, which is generally the vesting period.
The Black-Scholes option model requires management to make various estimates and assumptions, including expected term, expected volatility, risk-free rate, and dividend yield. The expected term represents the period of time that stock-based compensation awards granted are expected to be outstanding and is estimated based on considerations including the vesting period, contractual term and anticipated employee exercise patterns. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in relation to the contractual life of the stock-based compensation instrument. The dividend yield assumption is based on historical patterns and future expectations for the Company dividends.
l) Impairment of Long-lived Assets
The Company is required to review its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value.
Assets are grouped and evaluated at the lowest level for their identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. The Company considers historical performance and future estimated results in its evaluation of potential impairment and then compares the carrying amount of the asset to the future estimated cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds estimated expected undiscounted future cash flows, the Company measures the amount of impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value. The estimation of fair value is generally determined by using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value. The Company estimates fair value of the assets based on certain assumptions such as budgets, internal projections, and other available information as considered necessary.
m) Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations
Asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) primarily represent the estimated present value of the amount the Company will incur to plug, abandon and remediate oil and gas properties at the projected end of their productive lives, in accordance with applicable federal, state and local laws. The Company determined its ARO by calculating the present value of estimated cash flows related to the obligation. The retirement obligation is recorded as a liability at its estimated present value as of the obligation’s inception, with an offsetting increase to proved properties.

The following table describes the changes in the Company’s asset retirement obligations for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

The Company had no oil and gas assets at September 30, 2025. The ARO balance relates to Petrodome’s prior working interest in an abandoned offshore well which was the subject of a decommissioning order (the “Order”) issued by the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (“BSEE”) in April 2019, to which Petrodome was a named party. Petrodome filed an appeal with the Interior Board of Land Appeals (“IBLA”) in 2019. Petrodome and the BSEE subsequently jointly requested, and received, a stay of the Order from the IBLA that remained in effect as of September 30, 2025. The Company’s believes that decommissioning activity has begun and will retain this obligation pending resolution of the Order.
n) Derivative Liabilities
Convertible Preferred Shares
The Series C Preferred Stock and the Company’s Series G Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series G Preferred Stock”) contain provisions that could result in modification of the conversion price that is based on a variable that is not an input to the fair value of a “fixed-for-fixed” option as defined under FASB ASC Topic No. 815 - 40, “Derivatives and Hedging”.
The Series C Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of common stock at a fixed $162.50 conversion rate. Upon conversion, the holder is entitled to dividends as if the shares had been held to maturity, which is referred to as the Conversion Premium. The conversion ratio is based on a volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) calculation based on the lowest stock price over the Measurement Period. The Measurement Period is 30 trading days (or 60 trading days if there is a Triggering Event) prior to the conversion date and 30 trading days (or 60 trading days if there is a Triggering Event) after the conversion date. The VWAP calculation is subject to adjustment if there is a Triggering Event and the Measurement Period is subject to adjustment in the event that the Company is in default of one or more Equity Conditions provided in the Certificate of Designation (“COD”). For example, the Measurement Period may be extended one day for every day the Company is not in compliance with one or more of the Equity Conditions. Trigger events are described in the designation of the Series C Preferred Stock, but include items which would typically be events of default under a debt security, including filing of reports late with the SEC.
At the conversion date, the number of shares due for the Conversion Premium is estimated based on the previous 30-day VWAP (or 60 trading days if there is a Triggering Event). If the VWAP calculation for the portion of the Measurement Period following the date of conversion is lower than the VWAP for the portion of the Measurement Period prior to the date of conversion, the holder will be issued additional shares of common stock (the “True-Up shares”). If the VWAP calculation is higher, no True-Up shares are issued.
The Company has determined that the Series C Preferred Stock contains an embedded derivative liability relating to the Conversion Premium and, upon conversion, a derivative liability for the potential obligation to issue True-Up Shares relating to shares of Series C Preferred Stock that have been converted and the Measurement Period has not expired, if applicable.
The fair value of the derivative liability relating to the Conversion Premium for any outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock is equal to the cash required to settle the Conversion Premium. The fair value of the potential True-Up share obligation has been estimated using a binomial pricing mode and the lesser of the conversion price or the lowest closing price of the Company’s stock subsequent to the conversion date, and the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock.
The Series G Convertible Preferred stock is redeemable or convertible into a variable number of shares of common stock, at the option of the Company. The conversion rate is determined at the time of conversion using a VWAP calculation similar to the Series C Preferred Stock described above. As a result, the Series G Preferred Stock contains an embedded derivative that is required to be recorded at fair value. The Company has determined that the fair value of the embedded derivative is negligible due to the restrictions on conversion.

| Table of Contents |
Convertible Debt
We review the terms of convertible debt issues to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options, which are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as derivative financial instruments. In circumstances where the host instrument contains more than one embedded derivative instrument, including the conversion option, that is required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single, compound derivative instrument.
Bifurcated embedded derivatives are initially recorded at fair value and are then revalued at each reporting date with changes in the fair value reported as non-operating income or expense. When the equity or convertible debt instruments contain embedded derivative instruments that are to be bifurcated and accounted for as liabilities, the total proceeds received are first allocated to the fair value of all the bifurcated derivative instruments. The remaining proceeds, if any, are then allocated to the host instruments themselves, usually resulting in those instruments being recorded at a discount from their face value. The discount from the face value of the convertible debt, together with the stated interest on the instrument, is amortized over the life of the instrument through periodic charges to interest expense.
The Company has adopted a sequencing approach to allocating its authorized and unissued shares when the number of such shares is insufficient to satisfy all convertible instruments or option type contracts that may be settled in shares. Specifically, the Company allocates it authorized and unissued shares based on the inception date of each instrument, with shares allocated first to those instruments with the earliest inception dates. Instruments with later inception dates for which no shares remain to be allocated are reclassified to asset or liability.
o) Undistributed Revenues and Royalties
The Company records a liability for cash collected from oil and gas sales that have not been distributed. The amounts are distributed in accordance with the working interests of the respective owners.
p) Subsequent events
The Company has evaluated all subsequent events from September 30, 2025 through November 12, 2025 (see Note 15).

Note 4. Investment in Simson-Maxwell
As described in Note 1, beginning on April 1, 2025, the Company no longer holds a controlling financial interest in Simson-Maxwell and therefore accounts for its ownership interest in Simson-Maxwell under the equity method of accounting from that date.
On April 1, 2025, the Company recorded a gain resulting from the conversion for accounting purposes to the equity method, as follows:

Note 6. Intangible Assets
ESG Clean Energy License
The Company’s intangible assets include costs associated with securing in August 2021 an Exclusive IPLA with ESG, pursuant to which Viking received (i) an exclusive license to ESG’s patent rights and know-how related to stationary electric power generation (not in connection with vehicles), including methods to utilize heat and capture carbon dioxide in Canada, and (ii) a non-exclusive license to the intellectual property in up to 25 sites in the United States that are operated by the Company or its affiliates.
In consideration of the licenses, Viking paid an up-front royalty of $
With respect to the payments noted in (i) and (ii) above,
The Company’s exclusivity with respect to Canada shall terminate if minimum continuing royalty payments to ESG are not at least equal to the following minimum payments based on the date that ESG first begins capturing carbon dioxide and selling for commercial purposes one or more commodities from a system installed and operated by ESG using the intellectual property (the “Trigger Date”):

In July 2025, ESG filed a voluntary bankruptcy petition under Chapter 11 with the Massachusetts Bankruptcy Court. At the time of filing, ESG had not yet constructed and put into commercial operation the carbon capture or water removal systems at its power generation facility. There is currently significant uncertainty as to whether ESG will be able to fully complete and commercialize its technology, which is necessary for the Company to exercise its rights under the license. Consequently, the Company determined that the carrying value of the intangible asset for the ESG license is fully impaired and has recorded an impairment charge of $

Generally, a VIE, is an entity with one or more of the following characteristics: (a) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support; (b) as a group the holders of the equity investment at risk lack (i) the ability to make decisions about an entity’s activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; or (c) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportional to their economic interests and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve, or are conducted on behalf of, an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is generally the entity that has (a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, and (b) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

Note 11. Derivative Liability
Series C Preferred Stock
The Series C Preferred Stock contains an embedded derivative due to the potential conversion into a variable number of shares of common stock. Upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock into shares of common stock, the Company has a potential obligation to issue additional shares of common stock to satisfy the True-Up obligation. Both the Conversion Premium and the True-Up obligation are derivatives and are required to be recorded at fair value.
Conversion of the face value of the Series C Preferred Stock is fixed at $
The Company determines the redemption value of the face value of the Series C Preferred Stock to be the fair value of the shares of common stock issuable to satisfy the conversion of the face value of the Series C Preferred Stock. The fair value of the Conversion Premium is determined to be the fair value of the shares required to satisfy the Conversion Premium.
| 23 |
| Table of Contents |
The Company receives notice of conversion from the holder with a calculation of the number of shares of common stock required to be issued to satisfy the redemption value plus the Conversion Premium. The Company then issues the number of shares of common stock determined by the holder using a VWAP calculation for the Measurement Period before the conversion date. The shares may be issued over time due to ownership limitations of the holder. Upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock, the Company reduces the derivative liability by the amount that was originally recorded for the number of Series C Preferred Stock converted. Any difference between the current fair value of the common shares issued to satisfy the conversion premium and the originally recorded derivative liability is recorded as a loss on derivative liability.
The holder may be entitled to additional shares subsequent to the conversion date if the VWAP calculation for the portion of the Measurement Period following the date of conversion is lower than the VWAP for the portion of the Measurement Period prior to the date of conversion, referred to as True-Up shares. If the VWAP calculation is higher, no True-Up shares are issued.
The potential obligation to issue True-Up shares may create an additional derivative liability. The determination of the number of True-Up shares due, if any, is based on the lowest VWAP calculation over the Measurement Period that extends beyond the conversion date. In addition, if the Company has not complied with certain provisions of the COD, the Measurement Period does not end until the Company is in compliance. The potential obligation to issue True-Up shares after the conversion date is a derivative liability.
The derivative liability for the True-Up Shares at the end of each period represents Series C Preferred Stock conversions in respect of which the Measurement Period had not expired as of the period end. The fair value of the derivative liability is estimated using a binomial pricing model, the estimated remaining Measurement Period, the share price and the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock.
The fair value of the derivative liability relating to the potential obligation to issue True-Up shares is subject to adjustment as the Company’s stock price changes. Such changes are recorded as changes in fair value of derivative liability.
On March 25, 2024, the Company received a notice letter from the NYSE American stating that the Company was back in compliance with all of the NYSE American’s continued listing standards. As a result, the Measurement Period related to prior conversions of 240 Series C Preferred Stock ended and the number of remaining True-Up shares due from these prior conversions was fixed at

The Series C Preferred Stock may be converted into shares of our common stock at any time at the option of the holder, or at Camber’s option if certain equity conditions (as defined in the Series C COD), are met. Upon conversion, Camber will pay the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock being converted through the issuance of common stock, in an amount equal to the dividends that such shares would have otherwise earned if they had been held through the maturity date (i.e., seven years), and issue to the holders such number of shares of common stock equal to $

The Series C Preferred Stock has a maturity date that is seven years after the date of issuance and, if the Series C Preferred Stock has not been wholly converted into shares of common stock prior to such date, all remaining outstanding Series C Preferred Stock will automatically be converted into shares of common stock, to the extent Camber has sufficient authorized but unissued shares of common stock available for issuance upon conversion. Notwithstanding any other provision of this designation, available authorized and unissued shares of common stock will be a limit and cap on the maximum number of shares of common stock that could be potentially issuable with respect to all conversions and other events that are not solely within the control of Camber. Camber will at all times use its best efforts to authorize sufficient shares. The number of shares required to settle the excess obligation is fixed on the date that net share settlement occurs. The Dividend Maturity Date will be indefinitely extended and suspended until sufficient authorized and unissued shares become available.
Camber may not issue any preferred stock that is pari passu or senior to the Series C Preferred Stock with respect to any rights for a period of one year after the earlier of such date (i) a registration statement is effective and available for the resale of all shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock, or (ii) Rule 144 under the Securities Act is available for the immediate unrestricted resale of all shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock.
The Series C Preferred Stock is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation, which prevents any holder of the Series C Preferred Stock from converting such Series C Preferred Stock into common stock, if upon such conversion, the holder would beneficially own greater than
Pursuant to the Series C COD, holders of the Series C Preferred Stock are permitted to vote together with holders of common stock on all matters other than election of directors and shareholder proposals (including proposals initiated by any holders of preferred shares), on an as-if converted basis, subject to the beneficial ownership limitation in the Series C COD, even if there are insufficient shares of authorized common stock to fully convert the Series C Preferred Stock. Also pursuant to certain agreements entered into with the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock in October 2021, due to the occurrence of a Trigger Event, Camber no longer has the right to conduct an early redemption of the Series C Preferred Stock as provided for in the Series C COD unless the Company’s indebtedness to Discover is paid in full.
On October 31, 2022, Camber filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada an amendment to the Series C COD (the “Series C Amendment”), dated as of October 28, 2022 (the “Series C Amendment Date”), pursuant to agreements between Camber and each of Discover and Antilles Family Office, LLC (“Antilles”) signed on October 28, 2022, which amended the Series C COD such that (i) beginning on the Series C Amendment Date and thereafter, when determining the conversion rate for each share of Series C Preferred Stock based on the trading price of Camber’s common stock over a certain number of previous days (“Measurement Period”), no day will be added to what would otherwise have been the end of any Measurement Period for the failure of the Equity Condition (as defined in the Series C COD), even if the volume weighted average trading price (“Measuring Metric”) is not at least $
November 2022 Agreement with Discover Growth Fund, LLC
On November 3, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement with Discover, pursuant to which Discover absolutely and unconditionally waived and released any and all rights to receive further or additional shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Conversion Shares”) with respect to any and all shares of Series C Preferred Stock previously converted by Discover including, but not limited to, the right to deliver additional notices for more Conversion Shares under the Series C COD.

Discover also absolutely and unconditionally waived and released any and all rights to convert all or any part of any promissory notes previously executed by the Company in favor of Discover into shares of the Company’s common stock and agreed not to convert or attempt to convert any portion of any Promissory Notes, at any particular price or at all.
February 2024 Agreement with Antilles Family Office, LLC
On or about February 15, 2024, the Company and Antilles entered into the February 2024 Antilles Agreement in relation to an amendment to the fifth amended and restated COD regarding its Series C Preferred Stock, as amended. Particularly, in exchange for the release and indemnity as provided for in the Agreement, Antilles agreed to certain amendments to the COD. On February 21, 2024, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada an amendment to the COD (the “Amendment”), dated as of February 21, 2024 (the “Amendment Date”), pursuant to the Agreement, which amended the COD to (i) establish a floor price in connection with determining the Conversion Premium (as defined in the COD) associated with conversions of Series C Preferred Stock, (ii) confirm that the Company may make an early redemption of any outstanding Series C Preferred Stock provided that outstanding promissory notes in favor of the Investor or its affiliates (collectively, the “Notes”) are paid in full, and (iii) confirm that no additional conversion shares will be owed to the Investor if the Notes are paid in full and all then outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock have been redeemed. Specifically, the Amendment provides that (i) beginning on the Amendment Date and thereafter, the Measuring Metric (as defined in the COD) will be the higher of (x) the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day following the Issuance Date (as defined in the COD) of the Series C Preferred Stock and (y) $
In addition, pursuant to the Agreement, (i) beginning on February 15, 2024 and thereafter, the Company agreed to pay at least fifty percent of the net proceeds received by the Company in connection with any registered or unregistered offering of equity or debt securities of the Company toward repayment of any outstanding Notes, and (ii) Antilles rescinded its prior notice to increase the beneficial ownership limitation to 9.99%, such that the limitation is restored to 4.99% effective five Business Days from the date of the Agreement.

Pursuant to the Series G COD, the Series G Preferred Stock may be converted into shares of common stock at any time at the option of the holder at a price per share of common stock equal to one cent above the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the issuance of such shares of Series G Preferred Stock, or as otherwise specified in the Stock Purchase Agreement, subject to adjustment as otherwise provided in the COD. Upon conversion, the Company will pay the holders of the Series G Preferred Stock being converted a conversion premium equal to the amount of dividends that such shares would have otherwise earned if they had been held through the maturity date.
The Series G Preferred Stock, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, rank: (a) senior to the Company’s common stock; (b) junior to the Series C Preferred Stock, (c) senior to the Series E Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Series F Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, as such may be designated as of the date of this Designation, or which may be designated by the Company after the date of this Designation; (d) senior, pari passu or junior with respect to any other series of Preferred Stock, as set forth in the COD with respect to such Preferred Stock; and (d) junior to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company.

Legal matters
Merger-Related Litigation
On February 9, 2024, plaintiff Lawrence Rowe, on behalf of himself and all other similarly situated former public minority shareholders of Viking, filed against the Company and its CEO a putative Class Action Complaint (i.e. C.A. No.4:24-cv-00489) styled Lawrence Rowe, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated v. James A. Doris and Camber Energy, Inc., in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division. The complaint alleges breaches of fiduciary duty in connection with the merger between Viking and the Company and seeks to recover damages for the alleged breaches.

On March 31 2025, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division, granted a motion by the Company to dismiss the complaint with prejudice. The deadline for the Plaintiff to appeal the Court’s decision expired on April 30, 2025.

Custom Energy and Power Solutions:
Simson-Maxwell:
On August 6, 2021, Viking acquired approximately 60.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of Simson-Maxwell Ltd. (“Simson-Maxwell”), a Canadian federal corporation, for $7,958,159 in cash. Simson-Maxwell manufactures and supplies power generation products, services and custom energy solutions. Simson-Maxwell provides commercial and industrial clients with efficient, flexible, environmentally responsible and clean-tech energy systems involving a wide variety of products, including CHP (combined heat and power), tier 4 final diesel and natural gas industrial engines, solar, wind and storage. Simson-Maxwell also designs and assembles a complete line of electrical control equipment including switch gear, synchronization and paralleling gear, distribution, Bi-Fuel and complete power generation production controls. Operating for over 80 years, Simson-Maxwell’s branches assist with servicing a large number of existing maintenance arrangements and meeting the energy and power-solution demands of the Company’s other customers.
On April 1, 2025, Viking entered into a Share Subscription Agreement (the “SSA”) with T&T Power Group Inc. (“T&T”), Remora EQ LP (“Remora”), Simmax Corp. (“Simmax”), and Simson-Maxwell. The SSA relates to a restructuring of the ownership of Simson-Maxwell that resulted in Camber ceasing to have a controlling interest in Simson-Maxwell.
Under the SSA, T&T agreed to (i) subscribe for 952 Class A Common Shares of Simson-Maxwell (the “Subscription Shares”) for an aggregate subscription price of approximately CAD $2.28 million; (ii) purchase 903 Class A Common Shares from Remora (the “Remora Shares”) for an agreed purchase price; and (iii) purchase 681 Class A Common Shares from Simmax (the “Simmax Shares”) for an agreed purchase price. T&T also agreed to provide up to CAD $3.0 million in additional working capital to Simson-Maxwell on closing or at such time as is reasonably required to meet the cash requirements of Simson-Maxwell, and to repay on or within a reasonable period following the closing amounts owing under Simson-Maxwell’s then outstanding senior secured credit facilities. T&T acquired the Subscription Shares by paying the subscription price in cash. T&T acquired the Remora Shares by paying approximately 3.5% of the purchase price in cash and issuing a promissory note for the remaining balance, maturing on December 1, 2025. T&T acquired the Simmax Shares by issuing a promissory note to Simmax, also maturing on December 1, 2025.
Following the closing of the transactions described above (collectively, the “Simson Share Transactions”), T&T and Viking are the only remaining shareholders of Simson-Maxwell. T&T owns 51% of Simson-Maxwell’s issued and outstanding Class A Common Shares, and Viking owns the remaining 49%. Viking did not sell or purchase any shares in connection with the Simson Share Transactions; however, Viking’s ownership decreased from approximately 60.5% to 49%. As a result of the reduction in Viking’s ownership interest and ceasing to have control over Simson-Maxwell, Camber no longer consolidates Simson-Maxwell’s financial results in its consolidated financial statements. The Company instead accounts for its investment in Simson-Maxwell under the equity method of accounting.
Viking also entered into a Unanimous Shareholders Agreement (the “USA”) on April 1, 2025 with T&T and Simson-Maxwell. The USA governs the ownership and management of Simson-Maxwell and provides that T&T is entitled to nominate two members to Simson-Maxwell’s board of directors, and Viking is entitled to nominate one member. The USA also contains a call and a put option. Under the call option, T&T has the option, exercisable at any time within the first 36 months, to purchase Viking’s 49% ownership interest for CAD $5.75 million (approximately $4.2 million). Under the put option, Viking has the option, exercisable at any time after 36 months, to require T&T to purchase Viking’s 49% ownership interest for CAD $7.75 million (approximately $5.7 million).

The ESG Clean Energy System is designed to, among other things, generate clean electricity from internal combustion engines and utilize waste heat to capture approximately 100% of the carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted from the engine without loss of efficiency, and in a manner to facilitate the production of certain commodities. Patent No. 11,286,832, for example, covers the invention of an “exhaust-gas-to-exhaust-gas heat exchanger” that efficiently cools – and then reheats – exhaust from a primary power generator so greater energy output can be achieved by a secondary power source with safe ventilation. Another key aspect of this patent is the development of a carbon dioxide capture system that utilizes the waste heat of the carbon dioxide pump to heat and regenerate the absorber that enables carbon dioxide to be safely contained and packaged.
The Company intends to sell, lease and/or sub-license the ESG Clean Energy System to third parties.
On August 13, 2025, Viking, ESG and Scuderi signed an Amendment to Exclusive Intellectual Property License Agreement pursuant to which Scuderi was added, effective as of such date, as an additional licensor or grantor, as applicable, under the IPLA, and was vested with all future rights and obligations of ESG thereunder, and Scuderi assumed all remaining duties, liabilities and benefits of ESG under the IPLA, to the same extent as ESG. Further, all general references to ESG in the IPLA are deemed to read ”ESG and Scuderi” and all provisions containing obligations of ESG are deemed to be obligations of ESG and Scuderi, jointly and severally. Scuderi is the owner of the intellectual property licensed to Viking by ESG.
Medical Waste Disposal System Using Ozone Technology:
In January 2022, Viking acquired a 51% interest in Viking Ozone, which owns the intellectual property rights to a patented (i.e., US Utility Patent No. 11,565,289), proprietary medical and biohazard waste treatment system using ozone technology. Simson-Maxwell has been designated the exclusive worldwide manufacturer and vendor of this system. The technology is designed to be a sustainable alternative to incineration, chemical, autoclave and heat treatment of bio-hazardous waste, and for the treated waste to be classified as renewable fuel for waste-to-energy (“WTE”) facilities in many locations around the world.
Broken Conductor Protection Technologies:
In February 2022, Viking acquired a 51% interest in two entities, Viking Sentinel and Viking Protection, that own the intellectual property rights to patented and patent pending proprietary electric transmission and distribution broken conductor protection systems. On August 1, 2025, Viking acquired a 51% interest in Viking Distribution which owns the intellectual property rights to patented and patent pending proprietary electric distribution broken conductor protection systems.
The broken conductor protection systems are designed to detect a break in a transmission line, distribution line, or coupling failure, and to immediately terminate the power to the line before it reaches the ground. The technology is intended to increase public safety and reduce the risk of causing an incendiary event, and to be an integral component within grid hardening and stability initiatives by electric utilities to improve the resiliency and reliability of existing infrastructure.
A summary of the applicable patents, pending patents and/or patent applications associated with the intellectual property owned by Viking Sentinel, Viking Protection and/or Viking Distribution as at the date hereof is as follows:

Upon the terms and conditions in the Merger Agreement, each share: (i) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Viking (the “Viking Common Stock”) issued and outstanding, other than shares owned by Camber, was converted into the right to receive one share of common stock of Camber (the “Camber Common Stock”); (ii) of Series C Preferred Stock of Viking (the “Viking Series C Preferred Stock”) issued and outstanding was converted into the right to receive one share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of Camber (the “New Camber Series A Preferred Stock”) and (iii) of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock of Viking (the “Viking Series E Preferred Stock,” and, together with the Viking Series C Preferred Stock, the “Viking Preferred Stock”) issued and outstanding was converted into the right to receive one share of Series H Preferred Stock of Camber (the “New Camber Series H Preferred Stock,” and, together with the New Camber Series A Preferred Stock, the “New Camber Preferred”).
Each share of New Camber Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into 890 shares of Camber Common Stock (subject to a beneficial ownership limitation preventing conversion into Camber Common Stock if the holder would be deemed to beneficially own more than 9.99% of Camber Common Stock), is treated equally with Camber Common Stock with respect to dividends and liquidation, and only has voting rights with respect to voting: (a) on a proposal to increase or reduce Camber’s share capital; (b) on a resolution to approve the terms of a buy-back agreement; (c) on a proposal to wind up Camber; (d) on a proposal for the disposal of all or substantially all of Camber’s property, business and undertaking; (e) during the winding-up of Camber; and/or (f) with respect to a proposed merger or consolidation in which Camber is a party or a subsidiary of Camber is a party.
Each share of New Camber Series H Preferred Stock has a face value of $10,000 per share, is convertible into a certain number of shares of Camber Common Stock, with the conversion ratio based upon achievement of certain milestones by Viking’s subsidiary, Viking Protection (provided the holder has not elected to receive the applicable portion of the purchase price in cash pursuant to that certain Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 9, 2022, by and between Viking and Jedda Holdings, LLC), is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99% of Camber Common Stock (but may be increased up to a maximum of 9.99% at the sole election of a holder by the provision of at least 61 days’ advance written notice) and has voting rights equal to one vote per share of Camber Series H Preferred Stock held on a non-cumulative basis.
Each outstanding option or warrant to purchase Viking Common Stock (a “Viking Option”), to the extent unvested, automatically became fully vested and was converted automatically into an option or warrant (an “Adjusted Option”) to purchase, on substantially the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Viking Option, except that instead of being exercisable into Viking Common Stock, such Adjusted Option is exercisable into Camber Common Stock.
Each outstanding promissory note issued by Viking that was convertible into Viking Common Stock (a “Viking Convertible Note”) was converted into a promissory note convertible into Camber Common Stock (an “Adjusted Convertible Note”) having substantially the same terms and conditions as applied to the corresponding Viking Convertible Note (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any extended post-termination conversion period that applies following consummation of the Merger), except that instead of being convertible into Viking Common Stock, such Adjusted Convertible Note is convertible into Camber Common Stock.
In connection with the Merger, Camber issued approximately 49,290,152 shares of Camber Common Stock, which represented approximately 59.99% of the outstanding Camber Common Stock after giving effect to such issuance. In addition, Camber reserved for issuance approximately 88,647,137 additional shares of Camber Common Stock in connection with the potential (1) conversion of the New Camber Series A Preferred Stock, (2) conversion of the New Camber Series H Preferred Stock, (3) exercise of the Adjusted Options and (4) conversion of the Adjusted Convertible Notes.
For accounting purposes, the Merger was deemed a reverse acquisition. Consequently, Viking (the legal subsidiary) was treated as the acquiror of Camber (the legal parent).
Going Concern Qualification
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements included herein 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 generated a net loss of $(4,166,782) for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to a net loss of $(64,891,096) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had stockholders’ deficit of $(42,208,886), long-term debt, net of current, of $44,088,176 and a working capital deficiency of $(13,754,541). The largest components of current liabilities creating this working capital deficiency are accrued interest on notes payable to Discover Growth Fund, LLC (“Discover”) of $7,716,177, undistributed revenues and royalties of $1,637,251 and amounts due to AGD Advisory Group, Inc., a related party, of $1,395,000.
| 37 |
| Table of Contents |
These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to utilize the resources in place to generate future profitable operations, to develop additional acquisition opportunities, and to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from business operations when they come due. Management believes the Company may be able to continue to develop new opportunities and may be able to obtain additional funds through debt and / or equity financings to facilitate its business strategy; however, there is no assurance of additional funding being available. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company have to curtail operations or be unable to continue in existence.
RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS
The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operation of the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on May 12, 2025.

Net cash used in in operating activities was $(1,999,727) during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $(1,454,022) in the comparable period in 2024. The decrease of $(545,805) was due to a decrease of $(2,056,482) in cash flows from changes in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by a decrease of $1,510,677 in cash operating losses.
Net cash flows from investing activities decreased to $21,196 during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $138,546 in the comparable period in 2024. The decrease is due primarily to proceeds of $205,000 from the sale of oil and gas properties in 2024.
Net cash flows from financing activities increased to $2,154,529 during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $860,831 in the comparable period in 2024. This increase is mainly due to an issuance of long-term debt and advances received from a related party, partially offset by a reduction in advances from bank credit facility, as compared to the prior year.

Revenue

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions and apply judgments. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be important at the time the consolidated financial statements are prepared and actual results could differ from our estimates and such differences could be material. Due to the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain, materially different amounts could be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. On a regular basis, we review our critical accounting policies and how they are applied in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the sufficiency of the disclosures pertaining to our accounting policies in the footnotes accompanying our condensed consolidated financial statements. Described below are the most significant policies we apply in preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements, some of which are subject to alternative treatments under GAAP. We also describe the most significant estimates and assumptions we make in applying these policies. See “Note 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities
The Company consolidates the financial results of its subsidiaries, defined as entities in which the Company holds a controlling financial interest.
Several of the Company’s subsidiaries are considered to be Variable Interest Entities (“VIE’s”) which are defined as an entity for which any of the following conditions exist:
1. | The total equity is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. | |
2. | The equity holders as a group have one of the following four characteristics: | |
| i. | Lack the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance. |
| ii. | Possess non-substantive voting rights. |
| iii. | Lack the obligation to absorb the entity’s expected losses. |
| iv. | Lack the right to receive the entity expected residual returns. |
The Company consolidates the financial results of a VIE when it is determined that the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets include amounts capitalized for the Company’s license agreement with ESG as described in Note 1 to the financial statements.
With the acquisition of a 51% interest in Viking Ozone, Viking Sentinel, Viking Protection and Viking Distribution, as described in Note 7, the Company has aggregate intangible assets of $15,433,536. These assets have an indefinite life and are not being amortized.
| 40 |
| Table of Contents |
The Company reviews these intangible assets, at least annually, for possible impairment when events or changes in circumstances that the assets carrying amount may not be recoverable. In evaluating the future benefit of its intangible assets, the Company estimates the anticipated discounted future net cash flows of the intangible assets over the remaining estimated useful life. If the carrying amount is not recoverable, an impairment loss is recorded for the excess of the carrying value of the asset over its fair value.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company, as a smaller reporting company (as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act), is not required to furnish the information required by this item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company does not currently maintain controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures would include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
| 41 |
| Table of Contents |
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2025, have been evaluated, and, based upon this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer has concluded that these controls and procedures were not effective.
Material Weaknesses and Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management has identified the following material weaknesses in the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting:
| 1. | The Company does not have sufficient staff to maintain a proper segregation of duties; |
|
|
|
| 2. | The Company lacks sufficient internal resources to analyze, interpret, and monitor compliance with complex accounting issues; and |
|
|
|
| 3. | The Company has not designed controls to ensure that financial information is reviewed and approved by an individual at the same or higher level than the preparer of the financial information. Specifically, the CFO is the primary preparer of most of the financial information, including the complex accounting areas such as equity transactions, derivative liabilities, impairment and business combinations. There is no review or approval of this information. |
Management of the Company is addressing these material weaknesses by hiring additional staff and seeking the assistance of subject matter experts for accounting advice on complex matters. Management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls and procedures and the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.
There were no changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2025.

As of September 30, 2025, there were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations.
Merger-Related Litigation
On February 9, 2024, plaintiff Lawrence Rowe, on behalf of himself and all other similarly situated former public minority shareholders of Viking, filed against the Company and its CEO a putative Class Action Complaint (i.e. C.A. No.4:24-cv-00489) styled Lawrence Rowe, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated v. James A. Doris and Camber Energy, Inc., in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division. The complaint alleges breaches of fiduciary duty in connection with the merger between Viking and the Company and seeks to recover damages for the alleged breaches. The defendants deny the allegations and filed a motion to dismiss (“MTD”) the case on April 26, 2024. The MTD hearing was held on August 30, 2024. On March 31 2025, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division, granted a motion by the Company to dismiss the complaint with prejudice. The deadline for the Plaintiff to appeal the Court’s decision expired on April 30, 2025.
Maranatha Oil Matter
In November 2015, Randy L. Robinson, d/b/a Maranatha Oil Co. sued the Company in Gonzales County, Texas (Cause No. 26160). The plaintiff alleged that it assigned oil and gas leases to the Company in April 2010, retaining a 4% overriding royalty interest and 50% working interest and that the Company failed to pay such overriding royalty interest or royalty interest. The interests relate to certain oil and gas properties which the Company subsequently sold to Nordic Oil USA in April 2013. The petition alleges causes of actions for breach of contract, failure to pay royalties, non-payment of working interest, fraud, fraud in the inducement of contract, money had and received, constructive trust, violation of theft liability act, continuing tort and fraudulent concealment. The suit seeks approximately $100,000 in amounts alleged owed, plus pre-and post-judgment interest. The Company has filed a denial to the claims and intends to vehemently defend itself against the allegations.
