Safe Harbor FINANCIAL RESULTS 2 This presentation and other written or oral statements made from time to time by representatives of Ault Global Holdings Inc. (s ometimes referred to as “AGH”) contain “forward - looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Ex cha nge Act of 1934. Forward - looking statements reflect the current view about future events. Statements that are not historical in nature, such as forecasts for the industry in which we operate, and which may be identified by the use of words like “expects,” “assumes,” “projects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “we believe,” “could be,” "future" or the negative of these terms and other words of similar meaning, are forward - looking statements. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this presentation relating to our business, business strategy, expansion, growth, products and services we may offer in the future and the timing of their development, sales and marketing strategy and capital outlook. Forward - looking s tatements are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions and are subject to inherent risks, uncertainties and changes of circumstances that are difficult to predict and may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated or expressed. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forward - looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include those risk factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10 - K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 (the “2020 Annual Report”) and other information contained in subsequently filed current and periodic reports, each of which is availabl e o n our website and on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website ( www.sec.gov ). Any forward - looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed in the 2020 Annual Repor t. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize (or in certain cases fail to materialize), or should the underlying assumptions p rov e incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward looking statements include: a d ecline in general economic conditions nationally and internationally; decreased demand for our products and services; market acceptance of our products; the ability to protect ou r i ntellectual property rights; impact of any litigation or infringement actions brought against us; competition from other providers and products; risks in product development; inabili ty to raise capital to fund continuing operations; changes in government regulation, the ability to complete customer transactions and capital raising transactions. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us t o p redict all of them. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States , we do not intend to update any of the forward - looking statements to conform these statements to actual results. All forecasts are provided by management in this presentation and are based on information available to us at this time and m ana gement expects that internal projections and expectations may change over time. In addition, the forecasts are based entirely on management’s best estimate of our future financial perfo rmance given our current contracts, current backlog of opportunities and conversations with new and existing customers about our products.

Executive Chairman Commentary FINANCIAL RESULTS 7 Ault Global’s Founder and Executive Chairman, Milton “Todd” Ault, III said, “The past year has been extremely rewarding and is the result of years of strategic planning. During this time, we have strengthened our operating businesses, improved our balance sheet tremendously and positioned the Company to capitalize on the very promising technologies at our subsidiaries. We anticipate significant revenue growth and profitability within the foreseeable future. With the strongest balance sheet in the Company’s history, a capable team at the Company, and a talented group of CEOs at the subsidiary level, the future prospects look bright for the Company in the short and long term.” Mr. Ault added “Our holding company platform transformation is developing rapidly. Our recent capital raise of approximately $165 million has enabled us to fund our subsidiaries while virtually eliminating our net debt. I am more confident than ever that the decision to become a holding company was correct. We see strength across all our subsidiaries and expect the completion of the lending and investment platform by the end of the second quarter. Simply stated, we are in the strongest position of our company’s 52 - year history. To all who stood behind our company and me during some tough times, I deeply thank you. From my perspective, the road ahead is bright.”
