In addition, unless the context otherwise requires and for the purposes of this Report only:

 PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

Camber is a growth-oriented diversified company with interests in innovative, industry-changing or industry-leading technologies, as well as an interest in a company that provides custom energy and power solutions to commercial and industrial clients in North America. Our existing portfolio of innovative technologies includes: (i) a majority interest in an entity with intellectual property rights to a fully developed, patented, proprietary medical and bio-hazard waste treatment system using ozone technology; and (ii) a majority interest in entities with the intellectual property rights to fully developed, patented and patent pending, proprietary electric transmission and distribution broken conductor protection systems, and a license to a patented clean energy and carbon-capture system with exclusivity in Canada and for multiple locations in the United States.

Our interest in the custom energy and power solutions industry consists of a forty-nine percent interest in Simson-Maxwell Ltd. (“Simson-Maxwell”), a Canadian corporation.

We are also exploring other energy-related opportunities and/or technologies which are currently generating revenue, or have a reasonable prospect of generating revenue within a reasonable period of time.

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. 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.

In November, 2025, Viking Ozone was advised that its flagship VKIN-300 medical and bio-hazardous waste pre-treatment unit (the “VKIN-300 Unit”) passed the acceptance review by Laboratoire national de métrologie et d’essais (“LNE”) in France to obtain official certification of compliance with French Standard NFX 30-503, regarded as one of the world’s strictest standards for waste decontamination equipment. On or about November, 7, 2025, the LNE confirmed that Viking Ozone’s application for a certificate of conformity for the VKIN 300 pretreatment unit is complete, satisfactory, and compliant with the requirements of standard NF X 20-703-1 of April 2024, and that formal attestation of conformity under the French decree Arrêté du 20 avril 2017 (Ministry of Social Affairs & Health, relating to pretreatment by disinfection of regulated medical care waste – DASRI) is expected to be issued once the decree is updated to reference French Standard NFX 30-503 and LNE’s own certification framework is amended accordingly. Given the conclusion of the evaluation report received from the LNE it is likely the certification will be obtained but there are no assurances of such result.

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:

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 certain patents and/or patent applications, including the following:

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 Group, Inc. (“Scuderi”) signed an Amendment to the IPLA 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.

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 in Massachusetts. There is currently significant uncertainty as to whether ESG and/or Scuderi will be able to fully complete and commercialize its technology, which is necessary for the Company to market the technology and practically benefit from rights and entitlements under the license.

Custom Energy and Power Solutions:

On August 6, 2021, Viking acquired approximately 60.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of Simson-Maxwell Ltd., 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 at fair value.

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).

Promissory Notes

Between December 11^th, 2020 and December 24, 2021, the Company executed and delivered the following Secured Promissory Notes in favor of Discover Growth Fund, LLC (“Discover”):

The December 9, 2021 Investor Note was paid in full on January 4, 2022. All other Promissory Notes remain outstanding and have a maturity date of January 1, 2027 (collectively, the “Outstanding Notes”). Commencing December 24, 2021, pursuant to Amendments signed on or about such date and the satisfaction of the condition stated therein which related to the Company increasing its authorized capital prior to December 31, 2021, each of the Outstanding Notes bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate on the amendment date, being 3.25%, with interest payable at maturity. Prior to December 24, 2021, the interest rate on applicable Outstanding Notes was 10% per annum.

All Outstanding Notes are secured by a first-ranking security interest against all of the Company’s assets, including the shares of Viking owned by the Company. Viking has also guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Outstanding Notes.

On April 7, 2025, the Company issued a convertible promissory note in favor of FK Venture, LLC (“FK Venture”) in the amount of $1,200,000. The note bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum and matures on September 30, 2026. At any time prior to the maturity date, FK Venture may elect to convert the outstanding principal and any accrued interest into shares of the Company’s common stock at a fixed conversion price of $0.15 per share.

Industry Segments 

The Company operates as one reportable segment. Prior to 2025, the Company had two reportable segments: Power Generation and Oil and Gas. However, following the reduction of the Company’s ownership interest in Simson-Maxwell during 2025 and the disposal of the Company’s remaining oil and gas assets in 2024, the Company now operates as a single reporting segment.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis. Subsequent to the reduction of the Company’s ownership interest in Simson-Maxwell during 2025, the Company does not generate any revenues. Performance is evaluated and resources are allocated based upon the progress and projected financial requirements to advance each of the Company’s investments towards commercialization.

Employees

The Company has no full-time employees. The Company continues to retain outside consultants as needed to support the operation of the business, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

Our business and operations are subject to many risks. The risks described below may not be the only risks we face, as our business and operations may also be subject to risks that we do not yet know of, or that we currently believe are immaterial. If any of the events or circumstances described below actually occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be materially and adversely affected and the trading price of our common stock could decline. The following risk factors should be read in conjunction with the other information contained herein, including the financial statements and the related notes. Please read “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this filing, where we describe additional uncertainties associated with our business and the forward-looking statements included or incorporated by reference in this filing.

Our securities should only be purchased by persons who can afford to lose their entire investment in us. You should carefully consider the following risk factors and other information in this filing before deciding to become a holder of our securities. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business and financial results could be negatively affected to a significant extent.

Risk Factors Related to our Investments in New Technologies

Because of the unique difficulties and uncertainties inherent in technology development, we face a risk of not being able to capitalize on our license or ownership of intellectual property.

Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by companies developing new technology and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of our successful ability to commercialize intellectual property we own or license must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the development of new technology with limited personnel and financial means. These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated technical problems that extend the time and cost of product development, or unanticipated problems with the operation of the technology.

Technology development involves significant time and expense and can be uncertain.

The development of technology associated with our licensed or owned intellectual property will be costly, complex and time-consuming. Any investment into technology development and commercialization often involves a long wait until a return, if any, is achieved on such investment. We plan to make investments in research and development relating to our owned and licensed intellectual property and technology. Investments in new technology and processes are inherently speculative.

Successful technical development of technologies associated with intellectual property does not guarantee successful commercialization.

We may successfully complete the technical development of technologies associated with our owned or licensed intellectual property, but we may still fail to commercialize that technology at scale or at a cost attractive to the target industries. Our success will depend largely on our ability to prove the capabilities and cost-effectiveness of the developed technology. Upon demonstration, the technology may not have the capabilities they were designed to have or that we believed they would have, or they may be more expensive than anticipated. Furthermore, even if we do successfully demonstrate the technology’s capabilities, potential customers may be more comfortable doing business with a larger, more established, more proven company than us. Moreover, competing technologies may prevent us from gaining wide market acceptance of the technology. Significant revenue from new technology investments may not be achieved for a number of years, if at all.

Other companies may claim that we infringe their intellectual property, which could materially increase our costs and harm our ability to generate future revenue and profit.

We do not believe that we infringe the proprietary rights of any third party, but claims of infringement are becoming increasingly common, and third parties may assert infringement claims against us. It may be difficult or impossible to identify, prior to receipt of notice from a third party, the trade secrets, patent position or other intellectual property rights of a third party, either in the United States or in foreign jurisdictions. Any such assertion may result in litigation or may require us to obtain a license for the intellectual property rights of third parties. If we are required to obtain licenses to use any third-party technology, we would have to pay royalties, which may significantly reduce any profit on our products. In addition, any such litigation could be expensive and disruptive to our ability to generate revenue or enter into new market opportunities. If any of our products were found to infringe other parties’ proprietary rights and we are unable to come to terms regarding a license with such parties, we may be forced to modify our products to make them non-infringing or to cease production of such products altogether.

Renewable energy investments may be linked to government subsidies.

Profitability of any investments we make in renewable and/or clean energy opportunities may depend on the availability of government subsidies, tax credits or other types of incentives, and there is no guaranty such subsidies, tax credits or incentives will be available in the future.

Risk Factors Related to our Operations

We have identified material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. If not remediated, our failure to establish and maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting could result in material misstatements in our financial statements and a failure to meet our reporting and financial obligations, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and the trading price of our common stock.

Maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and effective disclosure controls and procedures are necessary for us to produce reliable financial statements. As reported under “Part II - Item 9A. Controls and Procedures”, as of December 31, 2025, our CEO and CFO have determined that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, and such disclosure controls and procedures have not been deemed effective since approximately September 30, 2017. Separately, management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 and determined that such internal control over financial reporting was not effective as a result of such assessment.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis.

Maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures and effective internal control over financial reporting are necessary for us to produce reliable financial statements and the Company is committed to remediating its material weaknesses in such controls as promptly as possible. However, there can be no assurance as to when these material weaknesses will be remediated or that additional material weaknesses will not arise in the future. Any failure to remediate the material weaknesses, or the development of new material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, could result in material misstatements in our financial statements and cause us to fail to meet our reporting and financial obligations, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and the trading price of our common stock, and/or result in litigation against us or our management. In addition, even if we are successful in strengthening our controls and procedures, those controls and procedures may not be adequate to prevent or identify irregularities or facilitate the fair presentation of our financial statements or our periodic reports filed with the SEC.

We may have difficulty managing growth in our business, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and our ability to execute our business plan in a timely fashion. 

Because of our small size, growth in accordance with our business plans, if achieved, will place a significant strain on our financial, technical, operational and management resources. If we expand our activities, developments and production, and increase the number of projects we are evaluating or in which we participate, there will be additional demands on our financial, technical and management resources. The failure to continue to upgrade our technical, administrative, operating and financial control systems or the occurrence of unexpected expansion difficulties, including the inability to recruit and retain experienced managers, geoscientists, petroleum engineers, landmen, engineers and employees could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and our ability to execute our business plan in a timely fashion.

Need for Additional Financing.

The Company currently has limited funds and the lack of additional funds may negatively impact the Company’s ability to pursue its business strategy to conduct operations in the oil and gas industry and to acquire, invest in and/or provide professional advisory and consulting services to companies undergoing or anticipating periods of rapid growth. Even if the Company’s funds prove to be sufficient to provide such services or to acquire an interest in, or complete a transaction with, an entity, the Company may not have enough capital to exploit the opportunity. The ultimate success of the Company may depend upon its ability to raise additional capital. The Company may investigate the availability, source, or terms that might govern the acquisition of additional capital but will not do so until it determines a need for additional financing. If additional capital is needed, there is no assurance that funds will be available from any source or, if available, that they can be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company. If not available, the Company’s operations will be limited to those that can be financed with its modest capital.

No Assurance of Success or Profitability.

There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully implement its business plan and provide the contemplated services to its client companies. Even if the Company is successful in providing its services to its client companies, there is a risk that it will not generate revenues or profits, or that the market price of the Company’s common stock will increase.

If we lose the services of our Chief Executive Officer, our operations could be disrupted, and our business could be harmed.

We rely heavily on the day-to-day involvement of our CEO, James Doris, in managing the Company’s affairs. Mr. Doris is an integral part of all material elements of our existing operations and immediate growth initiatives. We do not have a long-term employment or other agreement with Mr. Doris. If he ceases to be involved with us for any reason, our operations would likely be disrupted, and our business would likely be harmed.

Cybersecurity breaches or business system disruptions may adversely affect our business.

We rely on our information technology infrastructure and management information systems to operate and record almost every aspect of our business. This may include confidential or personal information belonging to us, our employees, customers, suppliers, or others. Similar to other companies, our systems and networks, and those of third parties with whom we do business, could be subject to cybersecurity breaches caused by, among other things, illegal hacking, insider threats, computer viruses, phishing, malware, ransomware, or acts of vandalism or terrorism, or acts perpetrated by criminals or nation-state actors. Furthermore, we may also experience increased cybersecurity risk as some of our onshore personnel may periodically work remotely.

In addition to our own systems and networks, we use third-party service providers to process certain data or information on our behalf. Due to applicable laws and regulations, we may be held responsible for cybersecurity incidents attributed to our service providers to the extent it relates to information we share with them. Although we seek to require that these service providers implement and maintain reasonable security measures, we cannot control third parties and cannot guarantee that a security breach will not occur in their systems or networks.

Despite our efforts to continually refine our procedures, educate our employees, and implement tools and security measures to protect against such cybersecurity risks, there can be no assurance that these measures will prevent unauthorized access or detect every type of attempt or attack. Our potential future upgrades, refinements, tools and measures may not be completely effective or result in the anticipated improvements, if at all, and may cause disruptions in our business operations. In addition, a cyberattack or security breach could go undetected for an extended period of time, and the ensuing investigation of the incident would take time to complete. During that period, we may not necessarily know the impact to our systems or networks, costs and actions required to fully remediate and our initial remediation efforts may not be successful, and the errors or actions could be repeated before they are fully contained and remediated. A breach or failure of our systems or networks, critical third-party systems on which we rely, or those of our customers or vendors, could result in an interruption in our operations, disruption to certain systems that are used to operate our vessels or other assets, unplanned capital expenditures, unauthorized publication of our confidential business or proprietary information, unauthorized release of customer, employee or third party data, theft or misappropriation of funds, violation of privacy or other laws, and exposure to litigation or indemnity claims including resulting from customer-imposed cybersecurity controls or other related contractual obligations. There could also be increased costs to detect, prevent, respond, or recover from cybersecurity incidents. Any such breach, or our delay or failure to make adequate or timely disclosures to the public, regulatory or law enforcement agencies or affected individuals following such an event, could have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation, financial position, results of operations and cash flows, and cause reputational damage.

Increasing legal and regulatory focus on data privacy and security issues could expose us to increased liability and operational changes and costs.

Along with our own data and information in the normal course of our business, we collect and retain certain data that is subject to specific laws and regulations. The compliant processing of this data domestically and transferring of this data across international borders continues to increase in complexity. This data is subject to regulation at various levels of government in many areas of our business and in jurisdictions across the world, including data privacy and security laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”), the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), the U.K. and General Data Protection Regulation (“U.K. GDPR”), the standard contractual clauses (“SCC”) adopted by the European Commission and the U.K. Parliament for the processing and transfer of personal data in compliance with the GDPR and/or the U.K. GDPR, and Quebec’s Bill 64 (“Bill 64”). We also operate, or may in the future operate, in other jurisdictions that have issued, or are considering issuing, data privacy laws and regulations. The U.S. Federal Trade Commission recently adopted rules requiring the reporting of certain data breaches that may apply to our operations and those of our subsidiaries. As the number and complexities of such laws and regulations continue to increase, we will face increasingly complex compliance, monitoring, and control obligations. As the implementation, interpretation, and enforcement of such laws continues to progress and evolve, there may also be developments that amplify such risks. Any failure by us to comply with these laws and regulations, including as a result of a security or privacy breach, or otherwise, could expose us to litigation and enforcement, and result in significant penalties, fines, and other liabilities.

The Company is required to indemnify its Officers and Directors.

Nevada law provides for the indemnification of the Company’s directors, officers, employees, and agents, under certain circumstances, against attorney’s fees and other expenses incurred by them in any litigation to which they become a party arising from their association with or activities on behalf of the Company. If the Company were called upon to indemnify an officer or director, then the portion of its available funds expended for such purpose would reduce the amount otherwise available for the Company’s business. This indemnification obligation and the resultant costs associated with indemnification may also discourage our Company from bringing a lawsuit against directors and officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our shareholders against our directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit our company and shareholders.

The Company would bear the expenses of such litigation for any of its directors, officers, employees, or agents, upon such person’s promise to repay the Company if it is ultimately determined that any such person shall not have been entitled to indemnification. This indemnification policy could result in substantial expenditures by the Company which it may be unable to recoup.

We may be dependent upon outside advisors.

To supplement the Company’s officers, directors and principal shareholders, the Company may be required to employ accountants, technical experts, appraisers, attorneys, or other outside consultants or advisors. The selection of any such advisors will be made by the Company without any input from stockholders. Furthermore, it is anticipated that such persons may be engaged on an “as needed” basis without a continuing fiduciary or other obligation to the Company. In the event the Company considers it necessary to hire outside advisors, such persons may be affiliates of the Company.

The staff of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement notified Viking that the Staff had made a preliminary determination to recommend that the SEC file an enforcement action against Viking, as well as against its CEO and its former CFO, for alleged violation so securities laws.

In April of 2019, the staff (the “Staff”) of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement notified Viking that the Staff had made a preliminary determination to recommend that the SEC file an enforcement action against Viking, as well as against its CEO and its former CFO, for alleged violations of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act and Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder during the period from early 2014 through late 2016. The Staff’s notice was not a formal allegation or a finding of wrongdoing by Viking, and Viking has communicated with the Staff regarding its preliminary determination. We believe Viking has adequate defenses and intends to vigorously defend any enforcement action that may be initiated by the SEC. However, the defense of an action filed by the SEC against Viking, its CEO and/or former CFO, could take resources away from our operations, divert management attention, or potentially result in penalties, fines or sanctions, which could materially adversely affect us or the value of our securities.

We currently have outstanding indebtedness and we may incur additional indebtedness which could reduce our financial flexibility, increase interest expense and adversely impact our operations in the future.

We currently have outstanding indebtedness and, in the future, may incur significant amounts of additional indebtedness in order to make acquisitions or to develop properties. Our level of indebtedness could affect our operations in several ways, including the following:

A high level of indebtedness increases the risk that we may default on our debt obligations. We may not be able to generate sufficient cash flows to pay the principal or interest on our debt, and future working capital, borrowings or equity financing may not be available to pay or refinance such debt. If we do not have sufficient funds and are otherwise unable to arrange financing, we may have to sell significant assets or have a portion of our assets foreclosed upon which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Relating To An Investment In Our Securities

We do not intend to pay cash dividends to our stockholders.

We currently anticipate that we will retain all future earnings, if any, to finance the growth and development of our business. We do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any payment of cash dividends will depend upon our financial condition, capital requirements, earnings and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors. As a result, only appreciation of the price of our common stock, which may not occur, will provide a return to our stockholders.

We currently have a volatile market for our common stock, and the market for our common stock is and may remain volatile in the future.

We currently have a highly volatile market for our common stock, which market is anticipated to remain volatile in the future. Factors that could affect our stock price or result in fluctuations in the market price or trading volume of our common stock include:

Our common stock is listed on the OTC Markets under the symbol “CEIN.” Our stock price may be impacted by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance. The stock markets in general have experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies.

These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. Additionally, general economic, political, public health and market conditions, such as recessions, interest rates or international currency fluctuations, or global virus outbreaks may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. You should exercise caution before making an investment in us.

A prolonged decline in the market price of our common stock could affect our ability to obtain additional financing which would adversely affect our operations.

Historically, we have relied on equity and debt financing as primary sources of financing. A prolonged decline in the market price of our common stock or a reduction in our accessibility to the global markets may result in our inability to secure additional financing which would have an adverse effect on our operations.

Nevada law and our Articles of Incorporation authorize us to issue shares of stock which shares may cause substantial dilution to our existing stockholders.

We have authorized capital stock consisting of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. As of December 31, 2025, Camber had (i) 281,686,525 shares of common stock outstanding; (ii) 28,092 designated Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”), 28,092 of which were outstanding; (iii) 5,200 designated shares of Series C Preferred Stock, 0 of which were outstanding; (iv) 25,000 designated shares of Series G Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series G Preferred Stock”), 5,272 of which were outstanding, and; (v) 2,075 designated Series H Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series H Preferred Stock”), 0 of which were outstanding (each as described in greater detail in “Exhibit 4.1 – Description of Securities of the Registrant”). As a result, our Board of Directors has the ability to issue a large number of additional shares of common stock without stockholder approval, which if issued could cause substantial dilution to our then stockholders. Shares of additional preferred stock may also be issued by our Board of Directors without stockholder approval, with voting powers and such preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and powers as determined by our Board of Directors, which may be greater than the shares of common stock currently outstanding. As a result, shares of preferred stock may be issued by our Board of Directors which cause the holders to have majority voting power over our shares, provide the holders of the preferred stock the right to convert the shares of preferred stock they hold into shares of our common stock, which may cause substantial dilution to our then common stock stockholders and/or have other rights and preferences greater than those of our common stock stockholders. Investors should keep in mind that the Board of Directors has the authority to issue additional shares of common stock and preferred stock, which could cause substantial dilution to our existing stockholders. Additionally, the dilutive effect of any preferred stock which we may issue may be exacerbated given the fact that such preferred stock may have super voting rights and/or other rights or preferences which could provide the preferred stockholders with substantial voting control over us subsequent to the date of this filing and/or give those holders the power to prevent or cause a change in control. As a result, the issuance of shares of common stock and/or Preferred Stock may cause the value of our securities to decrease and/or become worthless.

Stockholders may be diluted significantly through our efforts to obtain financing and/or satisfy obligations through the issuance of additional shares of our common stock.

Wherever possible, our Board of Directors will attempt to use non-cash consideration to satisfy obligations. In many instances, we believe that the non-cash consideration will consist of shares of our common stock. Our Board of Directors has authority, without action or vote of the stockholders, to issue all or part of the authorized but unissued shares of common stock. These actions will result in dilution of the ownership interests of existing stockholders, and that dilution may be material.

If persons engage in short sales of our common stock, including sales of shares to be issued upon exercise of our outstanding warrants, convertible debentures and preferred stock, the price of our common stock may decline.

Selling short is a technique used by a stockholder to take advantage of an anticipated decline in the price of a security. In addition, holders of options, warrants and other convertible securities will sometimes sell short knowing they can, in effect, cover through the exercise or conversion of options, warrants and other convertible securities, thus locking in a profit. A significant number of short sales or a large volume of other sales within a relatively short period of time can create downward pressure on the market price of a security. Further sales of common stock issued upon exercise or conversion of options, warrants and other convertible securities could cause even greater declines in the price of our common stock due to the number of additional shares available in the market upon such exercise/conversion, which could encourage short sales that could further undermine the value of our common stock. You could, therefore, experience a decline in the value of your investment as a result of short sales of our common stock.

The market price for our common stock may be volatile, and our stockholders may not be able to sell our stock at a favorable price or at all.

Many factors could cause the market price of our common stock to rise and fall, including: actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly results of operations; changes in market valuations of companies in our industry; changes in expectations of future financial performance; fluctuations in stock market prices and volumes; issuances of dilutive common stock or other securities in the future; the addition or departure of key personnel; announcements by us or our competitors of acquisitions, investments or strategic alliances; and the increase or decline in the price of oil and natural gas.

Substantial sales of our common stock, or the perception that such sales might occur, could depress the market price of our common stock.

We cannot predict whether future issuances of our common stock or resales in the open market will decrease the market price of our common stock. The impact of any such issuances or resales of our common stock on our market price may be increased as a result of the fact that our common stock is thinly, or infrequently, traded. The exercise of any options that we have or that we may grant to directors, executive officers and other employees in the future, the issuance of common stock in connection with acquisitions and other issuances of our common stock (including shares previously registered in our registration statements and prospectus supplements, and/or in connection with future registration statements or prospectus supplements) could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. In addition, future issuances of our common stock may be dilutive to existing stockholders. Any sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales might occur, could lower the market price of our common stock.

We incur significant costs as a result of operating as a fully reporting publicly traded company and our management is required to devote substantial time to compliance initiatives.

We incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses in connection with our status as a fully reporting public company. Specifically, we are required to prepare and file annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC. Additionally, our officers, directors and significant stockholders are required to file Forms 3, 4 and 5 and Schedules 13D/G with the SEC disclosing their ownership of the Company and changes in such ownership. Furthermore, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) and rules subsequently implemented by the SEC have imposed various new requirements on public companies, including requiring changes in corporate governance practices. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we maintain effective internal controls for financial reporting and disclosure of controls and procedures. The costs and expenses of compliance with SEC rules and our filing obligations with the SEC, or our identification of deficiencies in our internal controls over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses, could materially adversely affect our results of operations or cause the market price of our stock to decline in value.

Securities analyst coverage or lack of coverage may have a negative impact on our common stock’s market price.

The trading market for our common stock will depend, in part, on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. We do not have any control over these analysts. If securities or industry analysts stop their coverage of us or additional securities and industry analysts fail to cover us in the future, the trading price for our common stock would be negatively impacted. If any analyst or analysts who cover us downgrade our common stock, changes their opinion of our shares or publishes inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our stock price would likely decline. If any analyst or analysts cease coverage of us or fail to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our common stock could decrease and we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which could cause our stock price and trading volume to decline.

Due to the fact that our common stock is listed on the OTC:QB, we are subject to financial and other reporting and compliance obligations, which increase our costs and expenses.

We are currently required to file annual and quarterly information and other reports with the SEC that are specified in Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act. Additionally, due to the fact that our common stock is listed on the OTC:QB, we are also subject to the requirements to comply with other corporate governance requirements and are required to pay annual listing and other fees. These obligations require a commitment of additional resources including, but not limited, to additional expenses, and may result in the diversion of our senior management’s time and attention from our day-to-day operations. These obligations increase our expenses and may make it more complicated or time-consuming for us to undertake certain corporate actions.

You may experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings or other equity issuances.

We may in the future issue additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock.

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.

PLAN OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Camber is a growth-oriented diversified company with interests in innovative, industry-changing or industry-leading technologies, as well as an interest in a company that provides custom energy and power solutions to commercial and industrial clients in North America. Our existing portfolio of innovative technologies includes: (i) a majority interest in an entity with intellectual property rights to a fully developed, patented, proprietary medical and bio-hazard waste treatment system using ozone technology; and (ii) a majority interest in entities with the intellectual property rights to fully developed, patented and patent pending, proprietary electric transmission and distribution broken conductor protection systems, and a license to a patented clean energy and carbon-capture system with exclusivity in Canada and for multiple locations in the United States.

Our interest in the custom energy and power solutions industry consists of a forty-nine percent interest in Simson-Maxwell Ltd., a Canadian corporation.

We are also exploring other energy-related opportunities and/or technologies which are currently generating revenue, or have a reasonable prospect of generating revenue within a reasonable period of time.

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. 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.

In November, 2025, Viking Ozone was advised that its flagship VKIN-300 medical and bio-hazardous waste pre-treatment unit (the “VKIN-300 Unit”) passed the acceptance review by Laboratoire national de métrologie et d’essais (“LNE”) in France to obtain official certification of compliance with French Standard NFX 30-503, regarded as one of the world’s strictest standards for waste decontamination equipment. On or about November, 7, 2025, the LNE confirmed that Viking Ozone’s application for a certificate of conformity for the VKIN 300 pretreatment unit is complete, satisfactory, and compliant with the requirements of standard NF X 20-703-1 of April 2024, and that formal attestation of conformity under the French decree Arrêté du 20 avril 2017 (Ministry of Social Affairs & Health, relating to pretreatment by disinfection of regulated medical care waste – DASRI) is expected to be issued once the decree is updated to reference French Standard NFX 30-503 and LNE’s own certification framework is amended accordingly. Given the conclusion of the evaluation report received from the LNE it is likely the certification will be obtained but there are no assurances of such result.

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:

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 certain patents and/or patent applications, including the following:

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 Group, Inc. signed an Amendment to the IPLA 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.

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 in Massachusetts. There is currently significant uncertainty as to whether ESG and/or Scuderi will be able to fully complete and commercialize its technology, which is necessary for the Company to market the technology and practically benefit from rights and entitlements under the license.

Custom Energy and Power Solutions:

On August 6, 2021, Viking acquired approximately 60.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of Simson-Maxwell Ltd., 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 with T&T Power Group Inc., Remora EQ LP, Simmax Corp., 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 for an aggregate subscription price of approximately CAD $2.28 million; (ii) purchase 903 Class A Common Shares from Remora for an agreed purchase price; and (iii) purchase 681 Class A Common Shares from Simmax 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, 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 at fair value.

Viking also entered into a Unanimous Shareholders Agreement 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).

Going Concern Qualification

The Company’s 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 $5,326,618 for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to a net loss of $70,259,894 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The loss for the year ended December 31, 2025, was comprised of, among other things, certain non-cash items, including: (i) impairment of intangible assets of $3,728,011; (ii) amortization of debt discount of $3,217,568; (iii) depreciation, depletion and amortization of $291,617, and; (iv) a gain on the partial disposal of interest in subsidiary of $6,169,824.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had stockholders’ deficit of $43,368,722, long-term debt, net of current, of $43,698,407 and a working capital deficiency of $15,845,860. The largest components of current liabilities creating this working capital deficiency was accrued interest on note payable to Discover of $8,099,682, amounts due to related parties of $1,338,330, related party accounts payable of $1,810,000 and current portion of long-term debt of $1,202,956.

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 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 OPERATIONS

The following discussion of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related Notes included elsewhere in this Report.

Liquidity and Capital Resources 

Net cash used in operating activities increased to $(2,325,462) during the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $(1,468,439) in the comparable period in 2024. Net cash provided by changes in operating assets and liabilities declined by approximately $3.2 million. This was partially offset by a reduction of approximately $2.3 million in cash operating losses. Both of these changes as compared to the prior year were primarily the result of the deconsolidation of Simson-Maxwell on April 1, 2025.

Net cash flows from investing activities increased to $316,533 during the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $150,704 in the comparable period in 2024. This increase was due to payments received on notes receivable during the year and a reduction in fixed asset acquisitions as compared to the prior year, partially offset by the proceeds on the sale of oil and gas properties recorded in the prior year.

Net cash from financing activities increased to $2,173,806 during the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $526,323 in the comparable period in 2024. This increase was mainly due to increases in net proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt and advances from related parties. This was partially offset by a higher net repayment, and subsequent deconsolidation, of Simson-Maxwell’s bank facility during the year.

The Company operates as one reportable segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis. Performance is evaluated and resources allocated based upon the progress and projected financial requirements to advance each technology towards commercialization.

Summary information on our consolidated results for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 is presented below.

Revenue

The Company consolidated the revenues of Simon-Maxwell up to March 31, 2025, after which the Company deconsolidated Simson-Maxwell and began accounting for its investment in Simson-Maxwell at fair value. The Company did not generate revenues from any other sources in 2025. The significant decrease in revenues in 2025 as compared to the prior year reflects the impact of the deconsolidation of Simson-Maxwell effective April 1, 2025.

Operating expenses

The significant decrease in operating expenses in 2025 as compared to the prior year reflects the impact of the deconsolidation of Simson-Maxwell effective April 1, 2025, which reduced cost of goods sold, general and administrative expenses and depreciation expenses by approximately $16.0 million, $9.0 million and $0.5 million, respectively, as compared to the prior year.

Excluding Simson-Maxwell, operating expenses were relatively flat compared to the prior year. General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $1.1 million, to $3.0 million, as compared to the prior year, driven by lower expenses for legal, insurance, consulting and public company-related costs. This was offset by an increase of $1.4 million in impairment expense related to intangible assets.

Loss from Operations

The loss from operations decreased by $3.2 million in 2025 as compared to the prior year. This reduction was due almost entirely to the deconsolidation of Simson-Maxwell. The operating loss from the rest of Camber’s business was relatively flat compared to the prior period.

Other Income and Expense

The Company recorded other income of $2.6 million in 2025, driven primarily by the gain of $6.2 million recognized on the partial disposition of its investment in Simson-Maxwell, less interest expense and amortization of debt discount. In the prior year, the Company recorded other expense of ($59.1) million, consisting primarily of goodwill impairment of ($34.9) million and change in fair value of derivative liability of ($18.3) million, plus additional expenses for interest, amortization of debt discount, loss on extinguishment of debt and loss on disposal of oil and gas assets.

Net Loss

The Company’s net loss of $5.3 million was approximately $65.0 million lower than the prior year, primarily as a result of the change in other income and expense described above.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to an investor in the Company’s securities.

Seasonality

The Company’s operating results are not affected by seasonality.

Inflation

The Company’s business and operating results are not currently affected in any material way by inflation although they could be adversely affected in the future were inflation to increase, resulting in cost increases.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

We prepare our 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 consolidated financial statements, as well as the sufficiency of the disclosures pertaining to our accounting policies in the footnotes accompanying our consolidated financial statements. Described below are the most significant policies we apply in preparing our 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 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:

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 the Company’s investments in Viking Ozone, Viking Sentinel, Viking Protection and Viking Distribution, and the Company’s license agreement with ESG. The license agreement was being amortized over 16 years. The other intangible assets have an indefinite life and are not being amortized.

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.

Investment in Unconsolidated Entity

The Company accounted for its non-controlling interest in Simson-Maxwell, an unconsolidated entity, under the equity method of accounting from April 1 through September 30, 2025. During the quarter ended December 31, 2025, the Company determined that it was not able to exercise significant influence over this investment and as a result, beginning with the quarter ended December 31, 2025, accounts for this investment at fair value. Under the fair value method, the Company adjusts the carrying value of its investment for changes in fair value and records the amount of the change in fair value in the consolidated statement of operations.

Revenue Recognition

Sale of Power Generation Units

The Company considers a completed unit to be a single performance obligation for purposes of revenue recognition and recognizes revenue when control of the product is transferred to the customer, which typically occurs upon shipment or delivery to the customer. Commissioning of the unit is considered to be a separate performance obligation for which revenue is recognized when the commissioning is completed. Progress payments are recognized as contract liabilities until the completed unit is delivered.

Parts Revenue

The Company considers the purchase orders for parts, which in some cases are governed by master sales agreements, to be the contracts with the customers. For each contract, the Company considers the commitment to transfer products, each of which is distinct, to be the identified performance obligations. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for the transfer of product, which is generally the price stated in the contract specific for each item sold, adjusted for the value of expected returns. Parts revenues are recognized at the point in time when control of the product is transferred to the customer, which typically occurs upon shipment or delivery to the customer.

Service and Repairs

Service and repairs are generally performed on customer owned equipment and billed based on labor hours incurred. Each repair is considered a performance obligation. As a result of control transferring over time, revenue is recognized based on the extent of progress towards completion of the performance obligation, generally using the cost-to-cost measure of progress for service work because the customer controls the asset as it is being serviced. Most service and repairs are completed in one or two days.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Camber Energy, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Camber Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to consolidated financial statements (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Explanatory Paragraph – Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 of the financial statements, the Company expects to continue incurring operating losses and generating negative cash flows from operations for the foreseeable future. Additionally, the Company has a significant working capital deficiency, accumulated deficit and net loss for the year. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2 to the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, 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.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Intangible Asset Impairment

Refer to Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Intangible Assets, and Note 6, Intangible Assets, to the financial statements.

Critical Audit Matter Description

The Company’s evaluation of long-lived intangible assets for impairment involves the comparison of the fair value of each asset to its carrying value. The Company estimates fair value primarily using the income approach, which is based on the present value of estimated future cash flows attributable to the respective assets. This requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to forecasts of future revenues, operating margins, cash flows (including growth rates beyond the explicit forecast period), royalty rates (where applicable), and discount rates (weighted-average cost of capital). Changes in these assumptions could have a material impact on either the fair value determination or the amount of any impairment charge.

During the year, the Company performed its annual impairment assessments as of December 31, 2025, and also performed interim quantitative impairment tests due to identified triggering events, e.g., adverse changes in market conditions, increased competition, reduced cash flows, or macroeconomic factors. The estimated fair value of the ESG Clean Energy license was determined to be zero, resulting in an impairment charge of approximately $3.7 million. The estimated fair value of the Other intangibles – Variable Interest Entities were determined to be in excess of their carrying values, resulting in no impairment charges.

We identified the Company’s impairment evaluations of long-lived intangible assets as a critical audit matter because of significant judgments made by management to estimate the fair values of the assets. A high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort was required when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s forecasts, growth rates, royalty rates, discount rates, and fair-value allocations.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our principal audit procedures related to the Company’s impairment evaluations included the following:

Accounting for Investment in Simson-Maxwell Ltd. – Deconsolidation, Equity Method Accounting, and Subsequent Change to Fair Value

Refer to Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Investment in Unconsolidated Entity, and Note 4, Investment in Simson-Maxwell, to the financial statements.

Critical Audit Matter Description

During the year, the Company’s ownership interest in Simson-Maxwell Ltd. (“Simson-Maxwell”) decreased below 50% due to an external dilution of the Company’s equity interest in Simson-Maxwell on April 1, 2025, resulting in the loss of a controlling financial interest. The Company deconsolidated Simson-Maxwell effective April 1, 2025 and recognized a gain on deconsolidation of approximately $6.2 million, calculated based on the fair value of the retained interest at the date control was lost. For the portion of the year following deconsolidation through September 30, 2025, the retained interest was accounted for under the equity method of accounting because the Company determined it continued to exercise significant influence over the investee (primarily through board representation and other participatory rights).

During the quarter ended December 31, 2025, management concluded that significant influence was no longer present, at which point the investment was remeasured to fair value and subsequently accounted for as an equity security under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 321, Investments – Equity Securities, with changes in fair value recognized in operations.

We identified the accounting for the changes in the Company’s investment in Simson-Maxwell (including the deconsolidation, application of the equity method for a portion of the year, determination of the date when significant influence was lost, and the related fair value measurements) as a critical audit matter. This was due to the significant judgments required by management in (1) assessing the date when control was lost, (2) evaluating qualitative and quantitative factors to determine the presence or absence of significant influence, and (3) estimating the fair value of the retained interest at both the deconsolidation date and the date significant influence ceased. These judgments involved complex considerations under ASC 810, Consolidation, and ASC 323, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures, including analysis of governance documents, board rights, contractual arrangements, and market data. A high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort was required when performing audit procedures to evaluate the appropriateness of the accounting conclusions and the reasonableness of the fair value determinations.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our principal audit procedures related to the Company’s accounting for the investment in Simson-Maxwell included the following:
