Management Commentary

Vivakor Chairman and Chief Executive Officer James Ballengee commented, "Our second quarter and first half 2023 operating and financial results were in-line with our internal expectations. I am happy to say that with this 10-Q Quarterly Report filed on August 21st, we are current with our SEC filings and obligations. I want to thank our internal team and outside advisors in achieving this milestone, as I know it was not an easy feat."

Ballengee, continued, "On the business side, we continue to move forward with plans to further connect our Colorado City, Texas crude oil storage tank, which is currently connected to the Lotus pipeline system, to other major pipeline systems. As previously announced, the relocation of our Remediation Processing Center 2 (RPC #2) from Vernal, Utah to Kuwait is in process. The unit has been dismantled and is currently on its way to Kuwait with an expected target date in the fourth quarter 2023. This decision was based on successful results yielding less than 1% total petroleum hydrocarbons in treated contaminated soil in Kuwait. We are optimistic our upcoming project in the Houston, Texas area will also generate incremental revenue via an RPC unit. We look forward to sharing our progress with existing and prospective new shareholders over the coming months."
