NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

June 30, 2013 and 2012

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Capital Financial Holdings, Inc., a North Dakota corporation, and its subsidiary (collectively, the "Company"), included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the footnotes thereto contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, of Capital Financial Holdings, Inc., as filed with the SEC. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2012, contained herein, was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures included in the Form 10-K and applicable under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, but not required for interim reporting purposes, have been condensed or omitted.

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (which are of a normal, recurring nature) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements. The results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the entire year.

NOTE 2 – RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

A summary of our significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 on pages 10 and 11 of our 2012 Form 10-K.

The Company adopted ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, for nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are not recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The adoption of ASC 820-10 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company adopted ASU 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. ASU 2012-02 simplifies how an entity tests indefinite-lived intangibles assets other than goodwill for impairment. Another objective of ASU 2012-02 is to improve the consistency of impairment testing guidance among long-term asset categories. The amendments are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-02 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company adopted ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. Topic 740, Income Taxes, does not include explicit guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. There is diversity in practice in the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits in those instances. The objective of the amendments in this Update is to eliminate that diversity in practice. The amendments are effective for entities that determine liquidation is imminent during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company adopted ASU 2013-07, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205): Liquidation Basis of Accounting. The amendments are effective for entities that determine liquidation is imminent during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2013-07 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 - RECLASSIFICATION

Certain amounts in the 2012 condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2013 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s net income (loss).

NOTE 4 - BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

On March 7, 2007, the Company acquired certain assets of United Heritage Financial Services, Inc. (UHFS), a wholly owned subsidiary of United Heritage Financial Group, Inc., of Meridian, Idaho. UHFS had approximately 120 independent registered representatives who became part of Capital Financial Services, Inc. (CFS), the retail brokerage division of the Company. Pursuant to the agreement, in exchange for receipt of the assets of UHFS set forth above, the Company agreed to issue 500,000 restricted CFH shares and pay a deferred cash earn out payment totaling a maximum of $900,000, to be paid in 21 quarterly installments. As of June 30, 2013 the Company had made twenty-one quarterly installment payments. There is no longer a liability relating to this acquisition as of June 30, 2013. Due to the goodwill impairment charge that was recorded on December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2012(See Note 5-Goodwill), as of June 30, 2013 the total goodwill recorded relating to this acquisition was $456,410.

NOTE 5 - GOODWILL

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2013, are as follows:

Balance as of January 1, 2013	$	2,132,026
Impairment loss on goodwill		-
Goodwill acquisition price adjustment during the period (See Note 4)		-
Balance as of June 30, 2013	$	2,132,026

The Company’s goodwill represents the excess of purchase prices over the fair value of the identifiable net assets of previously acquired broker/dealer businesses. The goodwill is not amortized; instead it is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value. Absent any impairment indicators, the Company performs its annual goodwill impairment testing as of June 30 of each year.

The Company’s policy is to test goodwill for impairment using a fair value approach at the reporting unit level. The Company performs its goodwill impairment test in two steps. Step one compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill. If the fair value of the unit determined in step one is lower than its carrying value, the Company proceeds to step two, which then compares the carrying value of goodwill to its implied fair value. Any excess of carrying value of goodwill over its implied fair value at a reporting unit is recorded as impairment.

The valuation methodology the Company utilizes in testing the Company’s goodwill for impairment is based on the income approach. The income approach is based on a discounted cash flow methodology in which expected future net cash flows are discounted to present value, using a discounted rate that compensates for the risk in attaining the projected cash flows. This approach is dependent upon a number of significant management estimates about future performance including but not limited to, market performance, income taxes, capital spending and working capital changes.

The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually during the second quarter of each fiscal year. If an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value, goodwill will be evaluated for impairment between annual tests. There were no events that occurred nor a change in circumstances that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value during the second quarter in 2013. Therefore, the second step of testing for impairment was not required.

NOTE 6 – PROMISSORY NOTE

On October 21, 2011, the Company issued a promissory note to PawnMart, Inc. in exchange for the repurchase of the 3,050,000 shares of preferred stock. The note carries an interest rate of 7%, with quarterly payments of $66,801. On March 30, 2012 the Company revised the agreement with PawnMart, Inc. to release the building as security on the original note. The Company made a payment of $925,922. In April of 2012, the Company made a $100,000 payment. The Company was to make quarterly payments of $34,000 with the last payment being $34,965 until maturity April 1, 2014. On March 1, 2013, the Company made a payment of $118,000. On March 28, 2013 the Company paid the promissory note in full plus accrued interest for a total payment of $46,353. Interest expense on this note was $5,512 in 2013 and $31,826 in 2012. There is no longer a liability related to this note.

NOTE 7 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect per share amounts that would have resulted if dilutive potential common shares had been converted to common shares. The following reconciles amounts reported in the financial statements:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2013						Three Months Ended March 31, 2012
	Numerator		Denominator		Per Share Amount		Numerator		Denominator		Per Share Amount
Net (Loss) Income	$	143,733						90,317

	Numerator		Denominator		Per Share Amount		Numerator			Denominator		Per Share Amount

Options and warrants to purchase 7,486,113 common shares at exercise prices between $0.35 and $1.43 were outstanding at March 31, 2013, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the quarter ending June 30, 2013, because their effect was anti-dilutive.

NOTE 8 – FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

The Company has adopted a framework for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market. Valuation techniques that are consistent with the market, income or cost approach are used to measure fair value.

The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value in three broad levels:

● Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities the Company has the ability to access.

● Level 2 inputs are inputs (other than quoted prices included within level 1) that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

● Level 3 are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability and rely on management’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. (The unobservable inputs should be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and may include the Company’s own data.)

The application of valuation techniques applied to similar assets and liabilities has been consistently applied. The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value:

On February 12, 2009, CFS entered into a settlement agreement with a client, which resulted in CFS purchasing the client’s investment in the Omega 2007 Drilling Program 1, LP. This limited partnership carries a “presentment” feature which allows CFS to sell the investment to the General Managing Partner of the limited partnership; and this feature has become available. CFS had determined, based off of information provided by the Limited Partnership that the fair market value of the $76,876 investment was estimated at $45,000 based on discounted cash flows at the time of purchase by CFS. Since then, CFS has determined, based off of information provided by the Limited Partnership that, as of March 19, 2013, the fair market value of this $76,876 investment is estimated to be $12,214 based on discounted cash flows; however this amount could fluctuate with the prices of oil and natural gas. This investment is included in other assets on the balance sheet. In May of 2013, CFS opted to exercise the “presentment”feature and was paid the current value of the investment in the amount of $11,922,98. As of June 17, 2013, this investment is no longer an asset of CFS.

The Company has accumulated cash for the possible future payments of severance and benefits for senior management, should they leave. This is an accrual the company has elected to set aside for possible future obligations. These funds are reflected as Severance Escrow on the balance sheet, and consist of cash accounts.

NOTE 9 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company operates in a legal and regulatory environment that exposes it to potentially significant litigation risks. As a result, the Company is involved in various disputes and legal proceedings, including litigation, arbitration and regulatory investigations. Issuers of certain alternative products sold by the Company are in Chapter 11 Bankruptcy or may have other financial difficulties. As a result of such alleged failings of alternative products and the uncertainty of client recovery from the various product issuers, the Company is subject to several legal and/or arbitration proceedings. These proceedings include customer suits and arbitrations related to the bankruptcy of the KH Funding Company, and the bankruptcy proceedings of the various DBSI entities RMC Medstone and Cole Credit Property Trust. The Company vigorously contests the allegations of the various proceedings and believes that there are multiple meritorious legal and fact based defenses in these matters. Such cases are subject to many uncertainties, and their outcome is often difficult to predict, including the impact on operations or on the financial statements, particularly in the earlier stages of a case. The Company makes provisions for cases brought against it when, in the opinion of management after seeking legal advice, it is probable that a liability exists, and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The current proceedings are subject to uncertainties and as such, the Company is unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss that may result from the outcome of these cases; however, results in these cases that are against the interests of the Company could have a severe negative impact on the financial position of the Company. At June 30, 2013, the Company is a defendant in three on-going suits and arbitrations as discussed above. The Company expects any possible settlement, if any, to be below the maximum limits of coverage under our liability insurance policy and any amounts of shared coverage by the Company, to the insurance Company is not material to the financial statements. However, the Company expects to prevail in these cases. During 2012, the Company settled lawsuits that will require $44,000 in payments during 2013 and 2014. During the second quarter of 2013, an agreement for one of the arbitrations mentioned above was reached. On May 7, 2013, the Company made payment of approximately $19,000 to their insurance provider in order to satisfy this agreement. No further payments will be required on the aforementioned settled lawsuits.

Total general and administrative expenses for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 were $641,644, a decrease from $731,513 during the same period in 2012.

At June 30, 2013, the Company held $1,546,003 in cash and cash equivalents, as compared to $1,012,368 at June 30, 2012. The Company is required to maintain certain levels of cash and liquid securities in CFS to meet regulatory net capital requirements.

On August 9, 2013, the Company signed loan documents for a line of credit with a local bank, American Bank Center, in the amount of $300,000 in order to help fund the anticipated stock split. The line of credit has a variable interest rate of 1.509 percent above Wall Street Journal U.S. Prime Rate. The Company will make monthly interest payments beginning September of 2013. The loan matures with the principal due on August 8, 2014. As of the Q filing date, no funds from the line of credit have been disbursed to the Company.

The Company has historically relied upon sales of its equity securities and debt instruments, as well as bank loans, for liquidity and growth. Management believes that the Company’s existing liquid assets, along with cash flow from operations, will provide the Company with sufficient resources to meet its ordinary operating expenses during the next twelve months. Significant, unforeseen or extraordinary expenses may require the Company to seek alternative financing sources, including common or preferred share issuance or additional debt financing.

In addition to the liabilities coming due in the next twelve months, management expects that the principal needs for cash may be broker recruitment, repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock, and debt service. Management also expects to realize increases in consultant expenses as well as increased compliance and legal costs with respect to its broker dealer subsidiary related to regulatory and litigation matters.
