The Company filed a registration statement on Form S-1, which was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on October 14, 2015. Twenty-six (26) investors invested at a price of $0.80 per share for a total of $60,000. The direct public offering closed on December 11, 2015.

 

On January 5, 2017, the Company amended its articles of incorporation and changed its name to American Rebel Holdings, Inc. The Company completed a business combination with its majority stockholder, American Rebel, Inc. on June 19, 2017. As a result, American Rebel, Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

The aforementioned acquisition of American Rebel, Inc. was accounted for as a reverse merger, which involved issuance by the Company of 217,763 shares of its common stock and 6,250 warrants to purchase shares of common stock to shareholders of American Rebel, Inc., and cancelled 112,500 shares of common stock previously owned by American Rebel, Inc.

 

For purposes of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, “American Rebel” “we,” “our,” “us,” or similar references refers to American Rebel Holdings. and its consolidated wholly-owned subsidiary, unless the context requires otherwise.

 

Interim Financial Statements and Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) set forth in Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by the U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Unaudited interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year. These financial statements should be read along with the Annual Report filed on Form 10-K of the Company for the period ended December 31, 2021 and notes thereto contained.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiary, American Rebel, Inc., incorporated in Nevada. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Year end

 

The Company’s year-end is December 31.

Cash and cash equivalents

 

For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of these investments approximates fair value.

 

Inventory and Inventory Deposits

 

Inventory consists of backpacks, jackets, safes and accessories manufactured to our design and held for resale and are carried at the lower of cost (First-in, First-out Method) or market value. The Company determines the estimate for the reserve for slow moving or obsolete inventories by regularly evaluating individual inventory levels, projected sales and current economic conditions. The Company also makes deposit payments on inventory to be manufactured that are carried separately until the goods are received into inventory.

 

Fixed assets and depreciation

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost net of accumulated depreciation. Additions and improvements are capitalized while ordinary maintenance and repair expenditures are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is recorded by the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, which ranges from five to seven years.

 

Revenue recognition

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our clients, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. To achieve this core principle, we apply the following five steps: (1) Identify the contract with a client; (2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) Determine the transaction price; (4) Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) Recognize revenues when or as the company satisfies a performance obligation.

 

These steps are met when as order is received, a price agreed, and the product shipped or delivered to that customer.

 

Advertising costs

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred; Marketing costs which we consider to be advertising costs incurred were $80,970 and $46,340 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, and accounts payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for cash and payables because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are payable on demand.

 

Level 1: The preferred inputs to valuation efforts are “quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities,” with the caveat that the reporting entity must have access to that market. Information at this level is based on direct observations of transactions involving the same assets and liabilities, not assumptions, and thus offers superior reliability. However, relatively few items, especially physical assets, actually trade in active markets.

 

8
 

 

Level 2: FASB acknowledged that active markets for identical assets and liabilities are relatively uncommon and, even when they do exist, they may be too thin to provide reliable information. To deal with this shortage of direct data, the board provided a second level of inputs that can be applied in three situations.

 

Level 3: If inputs from levels 1 and 2 are not available, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) acknowledges that fair value measures of many assets and liabilities are less precise. The board describes Level 3 inputs as “unobservable,” and limits their use by saying they “shall be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.” This category allows “for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date”. Earlier in the standard, FASB explains that “observable inputs” are gathered from sources other than the reporting company and that they are expected to reflect assumptions made by market participants.

 

Stock-based compensation

 

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 505 and 718 which requires the Company to recognize expense related to the fair value of its employee stock option awards. This eliminates accounting for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic value and requires instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method. The Company recognizes the cost of all share-based awards on a graded vesting basis over the vesting period of the award.

 

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718-10 and the conclusions reached by the FASB ASC 505-50. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by FASB ASC 505-50.

 

Earnings per share

 

The Company follows ASC Topic 260 to account for earnings per share. Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. During periods when common stock equivalents, if any, are anti-dilutive they are not considered in the computation.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company follows ASC Topic 740 for recording provision for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred income tax expense or benefit is based on the changes in the asset or liability for each period. If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax asset to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income tax in the period of change.

 

Deferred income tax may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.

 

9
 

 

The Company applies a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold for all tax uncertainties. ASC Topic 740 only allows the recognition of tax benefits that have a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company reviewed its tax positions and determined there were no outstanding, or retroactive tax positions with less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, therefore this standard has not had a material effect on the Company.

 

The Company does not anticipate any significant changes to its total unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

 

The Company classifies tax-related penalties and net interest as income tax expense. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively, no income tax expense has been recorded.

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

Right of Use Assets and Lease Liabilities

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The standard requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on the balance sheet as a Right-of-Use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability and requires leases to be classified as either an operating or a finance type lease. The standard excludes leases of intangible assets or inventory. The standard became effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019. The Company adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective approach, by applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. Results and disclosure requirements for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019, are presented under ASC 842, while prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historical accounting under ASC 840. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the standard, which also allowed the Company to carry forward historical lease classifications. The Company also elected the practical expedient related to treating lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all equipment leases as well as electing a policy exclusion permitting leases with an original lease term of less than one year to be excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities.

 

Under ASC 842, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. For this purpose, the Company considers only payments that are fixed and determinable at the time of commencement. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company estimated the incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made prior to commencement and is recorded net of any lease incentives received. The Company’ lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options.

 

Operating leases are included in operating lease Right-of-Use assets and operating lease liabilities, current and non-current, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

 

Recent pronouncements

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and is evaluating any that may impact its financial statements. The Company does not believe that there are any new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As noted above, the Company is in the development stage and, accordingly, its revenue from its planned operations does not cover its operating expenses. Since inception, the Company has been engaged in financing activities and executing its business plan of operations and incurring costs and expenses related to developing products and market identity, obtaining inventory, preparing for public product launch and ultimately selling products. As a result, the Company incurred net income (losses) for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 of ($2,628,237) and ($927,615), respectively. The Company’s accumulated deficit was ($29,597,894) as of March 31, 2022 and ($26,969,657) as of December 31, 2021. The Company’s working capital was $4,775,936 as of March 31, 2022 compared to a deficit of ($4,171,277) as of December 31, 2021. The increase in working capital from December 31, 2021 to March 31, 2022 is due to the Company closing a registered public offering in February 2022. In addition, the Company’s development activities since inception have been sustained through equity and debt financing and the deferral of payments on accounts payable and other expenses.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise capital from the sale of its equity and, ultimately, the achievement of significant operating revenues. Management believes holders of its warrants will execute their outstanding warrants generating additional investment capital for the Company. As of March 31, 2022, there were 700,838 warrants with an exercise price of $8.00 per share, and 3,287,123 warrants with an exercise price of $5.1875 per share. Management is also in discussion with several investment banks and broker dealers regarding additional funding initiatives.

 

Management believes sufficient funding can be secured through the obtaining of loans, as well as future offerings of its preferred and common stock to institutional and other investors. However, no assurance can be given that the Company will obtain this additional working capital, or if obtained, that such funding will not cause substantial dilution to its stockholders. If the Company is unable to secure such additional funds from these sources, it may be forced to change or delay its business plan rollout.

 

These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES

 

At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward of $29,597,894 and $26,969,657, respectively, which begins to expire in 2034.

 

Components of net deferred tax asset, including a valuation allowance, are as follows:

Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021 was $6,215,558 and $5,663,628, respectively. In assessing the recovery of the deferred tax asset, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax asset is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of future deferred tax assets, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. As a result, management determined it was more likely than not deferred tax assets will not be realized as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, and recognized 100% valuation allowance for each period.

NOTE 9 – SHARE CAPITAL

 

The Company is authorized to issue 600,000,000 shares of its $0.001 par value common stock and 10,000,000 shares of its $0.001 par value preferred stock.

 

On February 7, 2022, the Company effectuated a reverse split of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock at a ratio of 1-for-80. The share numbers and pricing information in this quarterly report are adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

 

Common stock

 

On February 3, 2022, multiple Series B Convertible Preferred stockholders converted 201,358 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to 251,698 shares of Common Stock of the Company.

 

On February 3, 2022, the Company converted two outstanding notes into 186,067 shares of Common Stock of the Company.

 

On February 10, 2022 the Company received an equity investment of $10,500,000 to purchase 2,530,121 shares of the Company’s common stock by a registered offering at $4.15 per share.

 

At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 4,741,321 and 1,597,370 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, respectively; and 75,143 and 276,501 shares of Series B preferred stock issued and outstanding, respectively.

 

NOTE 10 – WARRANTS AND OPTIONS

 

As of March 31, 2022, there were 4,365,446 warrants issued and outstanding. As of December 31, 2021, there were 701,776 warrants outstanding to acquire additional shares of common stock.

 

The Company evaluates outstanding warrants as derivative liabilities and will recognize any changes in the fair value through earnings. The Company determined that the Warrants have an immaterial fair value at March 31, 2022. The warrants do not trade in a highly active securities market, and as such, the Company estimated the fair value of these common stock equivalents using Black-Scholes and the following assumptions:

 

Expected volatility was based primarily on historical volatility. Historical volatility was computed using daily pricing observations for recent periods. The Company believes this method produced an estimate that was representative of the Company’s expectations of future volatility over the expected term which due to their maturity period as expiry, it was three years. The Company had no reason to believe future volatility over the expected remaining life of these common stock equivalents was likely to differ materially from historical volatility. Expected life was based on three years due to the expiry of maturity. The risk-free rate was based on the U.S. Treasury rate that corresponded to the expected term of the common stock equivalents.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements are not historical facts but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections. We may use words such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “project,” “position,” “intend,” “target,” “plan,” “seek,” “believe,” “foresee,” “outlook,” “estimate” and variations of these words and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, are difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following:

 

  ● we currently do not own a manufacturing facility, and future acquisition and operation of new manufacturing facilities might prove unsuccessful and could fail;
     
  ● our success depends on our ability to introduce new products that track customer preferences;
     
  ● if we are unable to protect our intellectual property, we may lose a competitive advantage or incur substantial litigation costs to protect our rights;
     
  ● as significant portion of our revenues is derived by demand for our safes and personal security products for firearms storage purposes, we depend on the availability and regulation of ammunition storage;
     
  ● as we rely on third-party manufacturers for our safes production, our compromised operational capacity may affect our ability to meet the demand for our safes, which in turn may affect our generation of revenue;
     
  ● shortages of components and materials, as well as supply chain disruptions, may delay or reduce our sales and increase our costs, thereby harming our results of operations;
     
  ● we do not have long-term purchase commitments from our customers, and their ability to cancel, reduce, or delay orders could reduce our revenue and increase our costs;
     
  ● our inability to effectively meet our short- and long-term obligations;
     
  ● given our limited corporate history it is difficult to evaluate our business and future prospects and increases the risks associated with an investment in our securities;
     
  ● our inability to raise additional financing for working capital;
     
  ● our ability to generate sufficient revenue in our targeted markets to support operations;
     
  ● significant dilution resulting from our financing activities;
     
  ● the actions and initiatives taken by both current and potential competitors;
     
  ● our ability to diversify our operations;
     
  ● the fact that our accounting policies and methods are fundamental to how we report our financial condition and results of operations, and they may require management to make estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain;
     
  ● changes in U.S. GAAP or in the legal, regulatory and legislative environments in the markets in which we operate;
     
  ● the deterioration in general or global economic, market and political conditions;
     
  ● the inability to efficiently manage our operations;
     
  ● the inability to achieve future operating results;
     
  ● the unavailability of funds for capital expenditures;
     
  ● the inability of management to effectively implement our strategies and business plans; and

Description of Business

 

Overview

 

The Company operates as a marketer of branded safes and personal security products. Additionally, the Company designs and produces branded accessories and apparel including with concealment pockets.

 

We focus on primarily using U.S.-made steel as the primary component of our safes and personal security products. We believe our products are designed to safely store firearms, as well as store our customers’ priceless keepsakes, family heirlooms and treasured memories, and aim to make our products accessible at various price points for home use. We believe our products are designed for safety, quality, reliability, features and performance.

 

In addition to branded safes, we offer an assortment of personal security products as well as apparel and accessories for men and women under the Company’s American Rebel brand. Our backpacks utilize what we believe is a distinctive sandwich-method concealment pocket, which we refer to as our Personal Protection Pocket, to hold firearms in place securely and safely. Concealment pockets on our Freedom 2.0 Concealed Carry Jackets incorporate a silent operation opening and closing with the use of a magnetic closure.

 

We believe that we have the potential to continue to create an American brand community presence, in part through our Chief Executive Officer, Charles A. “Andy” Ross, who has written, recorded and performs a number of songs about the American spirit of independence. We believe our customers identify with the values expressed by our Chief Executive Officer through the “American Rebel” brand.

 

Through our growing network of dealers, we promote and sell our products in select regional retailers and local specialty safe, sports, hunting and firearms stores, as well as via e-commerce marketplace. The brand shares a commitment to offering products of what we believe are enduring quality and comfort that allow customers to keep their valuable belongings safe on the go and express their patriotism and style, which is synonymous with the American Rebel brand.

 

We generate revenue from the following activities:

 

  a. Safes - we offer a wide range of home, office and personal safe models, in a broad assortment of sizes, features and styles, which are constructed with U.S.-made steel. Demand for our safes is relatively strong across all segments of our customers, including individuals and families seeking to protect their valuables, businesses seeking to protect valuables and irreplaceable items such as artifacts and jewelry, and dispensaries servicing the community that seek to protect their inventory and cashflow. In addition, the demand for our safes has also been relatively strong among responsible gun owners, sportsmen, competitive shooters and hunters seeking a premium and responsible solution to secure valuables and firearms, to prevent theft and to protect loved ones. We expect to benefit from increasing awareness of and need for safe storage of firearms in future periods. Below is a summary of the different safes we make:

 

  i. Large Safes – our current large model safe collection consists of six premium safes. All of our large safes share the same high-quality workmanship, are constructed out of 11-gauge U.S.-made steel and feature double plate steel doors, double-steel door casements and reinforced door edges. Each of these safes provide up to 75 minutes of fire protection at 1200 degrees Fahrenheit. Our safes offer a fully adjustable interior to fit our customers’ needs. Depending on the model, one side of the interior may have shelves and the other side set up to accommodate long guns. There are optional additions such as Rifle Rod Kits and Handgun Hangers to increase the storage capacity of the safe. These large safes offer greater capacity for secure storage and protection, and our safes are designed to prevent unauthorized access, including in the event of an attempted theft, natural disaster or fire. We believe that a large, highly visible safe also acts as a deterrent to any prospective thief.

 

  ii. Personal Safes – The safes in our compact safe collection are easy to operate and carry as they fit into briefcases, desks or under vehicle seats. These personal safes meet Transportation Security Administration (“TSA”) airline firearm guidelines and fit comfortably in luggage when required by travel regulations.

 

17
 

 

  iii. Vault Doors – Our U.S.-made vault doors combine style with what we believe are superior theft and fire protection for an elegant look that fits any decor. Newly-built, higher-end homes often add vault rooms and we believe our vault doors, which we designed to facilitate secure access to such vault rooms, provide ideal solutions for the protection of valuables and shelter from either storms or intruders. Whether it’s in the context of a safe room, a shelter, or a place to consolidate valuables, our American Rebel in- and out-swinging vault doors provide maximum functionality to facilitate a secure vault room. American Rebel vault doors are constructed of 4 ½” double steel plate thickness, A36 carbon steel panels with sandwiched fire insulation, a design that provides greater rigidity, security and fire protection. Active bolt works, which is the locking mechanism that bolts the safe door closed so that it cannot be pried open, and which is considered to be by some locksmiths among the smoothest and strongest in the industry, and three external hinges that support the weight of the door, are some of the features of the vault door. For safety and when the door is used for a panic or safe room, a quick release lever is installed inside the door.

 

  iv. Dispensary Safes - Our HG-INV Inventory Safe, a safe tailor-made for the cannabis industry, provides cannabis and horticultural plant home growers a reliable and safe solution. Designed with medical marijuana or recreational cannabis dispensaries in mind, including with respect to increasing governmental and insurance industry regulation to lock inventory after hours, our HG-INV Inventory Safe delivers a high level of user experience.

 

  b. Personal Security - our concealed carry backpack selection consists of an assortment of sizes, features and styles.
     
  c. Apparel and Accessories - we offer a wide range of concealed carry jackets, vests and coats for men and women. We also offer patriotic apparel for the whole family, with the American Rebel imprint. Our apparel line serves as “point man” for the brand, often acting as the first point of exposure that people have to all things American Rebel. Our apparel line is designed and branded to be stylish, patriotic and bold. We emphasize styling that complements our enthusiasts’ and customers’ lifestyle, representing the values of our community and quintessential American character. We believe the American Rebel clothing line style is not only a fashion statement; we seek to cultivate a sense of pride of belonging to our patriotic family, in our customers’ adventures and in life.

 

The costs of our revenue primarily consist of productions costs, product development, consulting, and marketing and brand development fees.

Our results of operations and financial condition may be impacted positively and negatively by certain general macroeconomic and industry wide conditions, such as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The consequences of the pandemic and impact on the U.S. and global economies continue to evolve and the full extent of the impact is uncertain as of the date of this filing. The pandemic has had a significant effect on the safe and personal security industry and on the apparel industry. If the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic is not robust, the impact could be prolonged and severe. While to date the Company has not been required to stop operating, management is evaluating its use of its office space, virtual meetings and the like. While our manufacturing capabilities have been suffering, and could continue to suffer from mandatory, forced production disruptions, which negatively impact our ability to satisfy the demand for our products, as the result of the pandemic, we expect that the impact of such attrition would be mitigated by the addition of new customers resulting from the increasing demand for home, office and personal safety and security. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our operations, ability to obtain financing or future financial results is uncertain at this time. Due to the effects of COVID-19, management worked to reduce unnecessary marketing expenditures and worked to improve staff and human capital expenditures, while maintaining overall workforce levels. The Company expects but cannot guarantee that demand for its safes and personal security products will keep growing later in 2022, as more customers spending more time working remotely, and increasing regulation in many states mandating safe ammunition storage, accelerating the demand for our responsible solution safes and making them necessary appliance for any household, providing protection for expensive firearms and other valuables. Overall, management is focused on effectively positioning the Company for meeting the increasing demand for our safes and faster production turnaround.

 

Recent Developments and Trends

 

Our Growth Strategy

 

Our goal is to enhance our position as a designer, producer and marketer of premium safes and personal security products. We have established plans to grow our business by focusing on three key areas: (1) organic growth and expansion in existing markets; (2) targeted strategic acquisitions that increase our on-premise and online product offerings, distributor and retail footprint and/or have the ability to increase and improve our manufacturing capabilities and output, and (3) expanding the scope of our operation activities to the dispensaries U.S. community.

 

We have developed what we believe is a multi-pronged growth strategy, as described below, to help us capitalize on a sizable opportunity. Through methodical sales and marketing efforts, we believe we have implemented several key initiatives we can use to grow our business more effectively. We believe we made significant progress in 2021 in the largest growing segment of the safe industry, sales to first-time buyers. We also intend to opportunistically pursue the strategies described below to continue our upward trajectory and enhance stockholder value. Key elements of our strategy to achieve this goal are as follows:

 

Organic Growth and Expansion in Existing Markets - Build our Core Business

 

The cornerstone of our business has historically been safe product offerings. We are focused on continuing to develop our home, office and personal safes product lines. We are investing in adding what we believe are distinctive technology solutions to our safes.

 

We are also working to increase floor space dedicated to our safes and strengthen our online presence in order to expand our reach to new enthusiasts and build our devoted American Rebel community. We intend to continue to endeavor to create and provide retailers and customers with what we believe are responsible, safe, reliable and stylish products, and we expect to concentrate on tailoring our supply and distribution logistics in response to the specific demands of our customers.

 

We are currently developing a new additional model of our vault door. Our new vault door, which we expect to introduce at industry trade shows in 2023, is to be built in the U.S. through our collaboration with Industrial Maintenance Incorporated (“IMI”). The new vault door is expected to be manufactured in Topeka, Kansas, and will begin production in the third quarter of this year. We believe IMI’s location is very advantageous, as it is located near our sales office in Lenexa, Kansas.

 

We will launch our Freedom line of safes during the second quarter of 2022. The Freedom line of safes will be made from 12 gauge American-made steel and carry a 60 minute at 1200 degrees fire rating. The Freedom safe will be available in three sizes: the Freedom 20, the Freedom 30, and the Freedom 50. The exterior will be a stylish dark grey textured finish with a plush velour interior containing high-capacity gun racks and a custom door organizer.

 

An additional new product we expect to launch during the second quarter of this year is our 2A Locker. The 2A Locker is a response to demand from our customers for a lightweight, steel cabinet with a secure lock. Our 2A Locker is expected to be available in three models: 2A Ammo, 2A Locker-10, and the 2A Locker-14. Each 2A product will utilize our proprietary 5-point locking mechanism.

 

19
 

 

While we currently rely on third-party manufacturers for the production of our current line of safes, apparel and accessories, we believe that the expected addition of manufacturing capabilities following the initiation of our collaboration with the aforementioned manufacturer, which we anticipate to work exclusively with us, would allow us, among other benefits, to have greater autonomy over the manufacturing process and begin a contingency plan.

 

Additionally, our Concealed Carry Product line and Safe line serve a large and growing market segment. We believe that interest in safes increase, as well as in our complimentary concealed carry backpacks and apparel as a byproduct, when interest of the general population in firearms increase. To this extent, the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS), which we believe serves as a proxy for gun sales since a background check is generally needed to purchase a firearm, reported a record number of background checks in 2020, 39,695,315. The prior annual record for background checks was 2019’s 28,369,750. In 2021, there were 38,876,673 background checks conducted, similar to that of 2020’s annual record which was 40% higher than the previous annual record in 2019. While we do not expect this increase in background checks to necessarily translate to an equivalent number of additional safes purchased, we do believe it might be an indicator of the increased demand in the safe market. In addition, certain states (such as Massachusetts, California, New York and Connecticut) are starting to legislate new storage requirements in respect of firearms, which is expected to have a positive impact on the sale of safes.

 

We continue to strive to strengthen our relationships and our brand awareness with our current distributors, dealers, manufacturers, specialty retailers and consumers and to attract other distributors, dealers, and retailers. We believe that the success of our efforts depends on the distinctive features, quality, and performance of our products; continued manufacturing capabilities and meeting demand for our safes; the effectiveness of our marketing and merchandising programs; and the dedicated customer support.

 

In addition, we seek to improve customer satisfaction and loyalty by offering distinctive, high-quality products on a timely and cost-attractive basis and by offering efficient customer service. We regard the features, quality, and performance of our products as the most important components of our customer satisfaction and loyalty efforts, but we also rely on customer service and support for growing our business.

 

Furthermore, we intend to continue improving our business operations, including research and development, component sourcing, production processes, marketing programs, and customer support. Thus, we are continuing our efforts to enhance our production by increasing daily production quantities through equipment acquisitions, expanded shifts and process improvements, increased operational availability of our equipment, reduced equipment down times, and increased overall efficiency.

 

We believe that by enhancing our brand recognition, our market share might grow correspondingly. Industry sources estimate that 70 million to 80 million people in the United States own an aggregate of more than 400 million firearms, creating a large potential market for our safes and personal security products. We are focusing on the premium segment of the market through the quality, distinctiveness, and performance of our products; the effectiveness of our marketing and merchandising efforts; and the attractiveness of our competitive pricing strategies.

 

Targeted Strategic Acquisitions for Long-term Growth

 

We are consistently evaluating and considering acquisitions opportunities that fit our overall growth strategy as part of our corporate mission to accelerate long-term value for our stockholders and create integrated value chains.

 

Along these lines, in March of 2022 we entered into a letter of intent (“LOI”) to purchase a safe manufacturer. The final structure of the acquisition will be determined by the parties following the receipt of tax, corporate and securities law advice. The acquisition will be structured as an arm’s length transaction and pursuant to the terms of the LOI the parties intend to sign a definitive agreement in respect of the acquisition. Under the terms of the LOI, we would acquire all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the acquisition target, free and clear of all encumbrances for a combination of cash and stock. As part of the LOI, we gave the target a $250,000 non-refundable deposit, which will be credited to us at closing. Completion of the acquisition is subject to a number of conditions, including but not limited to the following key conditions: the target obtaining an audit of its financial statements; execution of the definitive and ancillary agreements; completion of mutually satisfactory due diligence; us obtaining sufficient financing to complete the acquisition; and receipt of all required regulatory, corporate and third-party approvals, and the fulfillment of all applicable regulatory requirements and conditions necessary to complete the acquisition.

Expanding Scope of Operations Activities by Offering Servicing Dispensaries and Brand Licensing

 

We continually seek to target new consumer segments for our safes. As we believe that safes are becoming a must-have household appliance, we strive to establish authenticity by selling our products to additional groups, and to expand our direct-to-consumer presence through our website and our showroom in Lenexa, Kansas.

 

Further, we expect the cannabis dispensary industry to be a material growth segment for our business. Several cannabis dispensary operators have expressed interest in the opportunity to help them with their inventory locking needs. Cannabis dispensaries have various insurance requirements and local ordinances requiring them to secure their inventory when the dispensary is closed. Dispensary operators have been purchasing gun safes and independently taking out the inside themselves to allow them to store cannabis inventory. Recognizing what seems to be a growing need for cannabis dispensary operators, we have designed a safe tailor-made for the cannabis industry. With the legal cannabis hyper-growth market expected to exceed $43 billion by 2025, and an increasing number of states where the growth and cultivation of cannabis is legal (California, Colorado, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Montana, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington), we believe we are well positioned to address the need of dispensaries. American Rebel has a long list of dispensary operators, growers, and processors interested in the Company’s inventory control solutions. We believe that dispensary operators, growers, and processors are another fertile growth market for our Vault Doors products, as many in the cannabis space have chosen to install entire vault rooms instead of individual inventory control safes—the American Rebel Vault Door has been the choice for that purpose.

 

Further, we believe that American Rebel has significant potential for its branded products as a lifestyle brand. As the American Rebel Brand continues to grow in popularity, we anticipate generating additional revenues from licensing fees earned from third parties who wish to engage the American Rebel community. While the Company does not generate material revenues from licensing fees, our management believes the American Rebel brand name may in the future have significant licensing value to third parties that seek the American Rebel name to brand their products to market to the American Rebel target demographic. For example, a tool manufacturer that wants to pursue an alternative marketing plan for a different look and feel could license the American Rebel brand name for their line of tools and market their tools under our distinct brand. This licensee would benefit from the strong American Rebel brand with their second line of American Rebel branded tools as they would continue to sell both of the lines of tools. Conversely, American Rebel could potentially also benefit as a licensee of products. If American Rebel determines a third party has designed, engineered, and manufactured a product that would be a strong addition to the American Rebel catalog of products, American Rebel could license that product from the third-party and sell the licensed product under the American Rebel brand.

 

Coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and Related Market Impact.

 

The COVID-19 outbreak has presented evolving risks and developments domestically and internationally, as well as new opportunities for our business. Although the pandemic has not materially impacted our results and operations adversely, our ability to satisfy demand for our products could be negatively impacted by mandatory forced production disruptions of our safes’ sole third-party manufacturer and strategic partners. Any significant disruption to communications and travel, including travel restrictions and other potential protective quarantine measures against COVID-19 by governmental agencies, could make it difficult for us to deliver goods and services to our customers. Further, travel restrictions and protective measures against COVID-19 could cause the Company to incur additional unexpected labor costs and expenses or could restrain the Company’s ability to retain the highly skilled personnel the Company needs for its operations. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts the Company’s business, sales and results of operations will depend on future developments, which are uncertain and cannot be currently predicted.

 

Additionally, as a result of COVID-19, at any time we may be subject to increased operating costs, supply interruptions, and difficulties in obtaining raw materials and components. To address these challenges, we continue to monitor our supply chain. We have recently entered into a contract with a third-party manufacturer to exclusively assemble a new additional model of our vault door. We believe that this vertical integration would allow us, among other benefits, to have greater autonomy over the manufacturing process, and begin a contingency plan.

 

21
 

 

We expect that the demand for home, office and personal safety and security products would remain stable, in part due to customers spending more time working remotely, increasing regulation mandating safe storage, and substantial uncertainty related to the supply chain and delivery of international goods, which in turn translate into, we believe, growth in demand for our home and personal safes as a U.S. company. We, however, cannot guarantee, that demand for our safes and personal security products will keep growing through the end of the 2022 calendar year and beyond.

 

Due to the substantial uncertainty related to the effects of the pandemic, its duration and the related market impacts, including the economic stimulus activity, we are unable to predict the specific impact the pandemic and related restrictions (including the lifting or re-imposing of restrictions due to the Omicron variant or otherwise) will have on our results of operations, liquidity or long-term financial results.

 

Results of Operations

 

From inception through March 31, 2022, we have generated an operating deficit of $29,597,894. We expect to incur additional losses during the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, and beyond, principally as a result of our increased investment in inventory, marketing expenses, and the limited sales of our new products as we seek to establish them in the marketplace.

 

Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 Compared To Three Months Ended March 31, 2021

 

Revenue and cost of goods sold

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we reported Sales of $154,080, compared to Sales of $349,290 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in Sales for the current quarter compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 is attributable to lack of available inventory for sale. The completion of our registered public offering in February 2022 has provided funds to allow the Company to replenish its inventory. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we reported Cost of Sales of $96,719, compared to Cost of Sales of $268,145 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in Cost of Sales for the current quarter is due to fewer Sales during the quarter compared to the three months ending March 31, 2021. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we reported Gross Profit of $57,361, compared to Gross Profit of $81,145 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in Gross Profit for the three months ending March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ending March 31, 2021 is due to the decrease in Sales

 

22
 

 

Operating Expenses

 

Total operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $1,016,437 compared to $444,542 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as further described below.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we incurred consulting and business development expenses of $462,989, compared to consulting and business development expenses of $146,006 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in consulting and business development expenses was due to increased expenses related to the Company’s registered public offering that was completed in February 2022.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we incurred product development expenses of $33,273, compared to product development expenses of $86,733 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in product development expenses relates primarily to a decrease in product development activities.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we incurred marketing and brand development expenses of $80,970, compared to marketing and brand development expenses of $46,340 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in marketing and brand development expenses relates primarily to an increase of activities including major trade shows and the availability of working capital.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we incurred general and administrative expenses of $438,305, compared to general and administrative expenses of $179,816 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in general and administrative expenses relates primarily to the Company’s registered offering completed in February 2022.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we incurred depreciation expense of $900, compared to depreciation expense of $1,613 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in depreciation expense relates primarily to the maturity of depreciable assets.

 

Other income and expenses

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we incurred interest expense of $292,405, compared to interest expense of $548,252 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease in interest expense is due to multiple notes being paid in full during the three months ending March 31, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 , we incurred interest expense of $333,393, compared to $263,082 during the three months ended March 31, 2021 in interest expense through the amortization of the debt discount recorded for the issuance of shares of common stock in connection with working capital loans.

 

Net Loss

 

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 amounted to $2,628,237, resulting in a loss per share of $0.83, compared to $927,615 for the three months ended March 31, 2021, resulting in a loss per share of $0.99. The increase in the net loss from the three months ended March 31, 2021 to the three months ended March 31, 2022 is primarily due to the increase in corporate and financing costs including the Loss on Extinguishment of Debt of $1,376,756 incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2022 created by issue of Common Stock to eliminate short term debt and accrued interest expense.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We are a development stage company and our revenue from our planned operations does not cover our operating expenses. We have a working capital deficit of $4,171,277 at December 31, 2021 and working capital asset of $4,775,936 at March 31, 2022 due to the closing of our registered public offering in February 2022 and have incurred a deficit of $29,597,894 from inception to March 31, 2022. We have funded operations primarily through the issuance of capital stock, convertible debt, and other securities.

 

23
 

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we raised net cash of $9,038,456 by issuance of common shares, as compared to $150,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we raised net cash of $60,000 through the issuance of notes payable secured by inventory, as compared to $90,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

 

As we continue with the launch of our safes and concealed carry product line we have devoted and expect to continue to devote significant resources in the areas of capital expenditures and marketing, sales, and operational expenditures.

 

We expect to require additional funds to further develop our business plan, including the anticipated launch of additional products in addition to continuing to market our safes and concealed carry product line. Since it is impossible to predict with certainty the timing and amount of funds required to establish profitability, we anticipate that we will need to raise additional funds through equity or debt offerings or otherwise in order to meet our expected future liquidity requirements. Any such financing that we undertake will likely be dilutive to existing stockholders.

 

In addition, we expect to also need additional funds to respond to business opportunities and challenges, including our ongoing operating expenses, protecting our intellectual property, developing or acquiring new lines of business and enhancing our operating infrastructure. While we may need to seek additional funding for such purposes, we may not be able to obtain financing on acceptable terms, or at all. In addition, the terms of our financings may be dilutive to, or otherwise adversely affect, holders of our common stock. We may also seek additional funds through arrangements with collaborators or other third parties. We may not be able to negotiate any such arrangements on acceptable terms, if at all. If we are unable to obtain additional funding on a timely basis, we may be required to curtail or terminate some or all of our product lines.

 

Debt Restructuring

 

The Company has recently engaged in a financial restructuring (the “Debt Restructuring”), that included extending, renewing, and structuring terms of loans with investors and third-party creditors. The completion of the registered offering provided funds in the use of proceeds to pay off multiple loans with investors and third-party creditors.

 

Cavalry Bridge Loan

 

As part of the Debt Restructuring, on September 29, 2021, the Company entered into a financing transaction with accredited investor Cavalry Fund I, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Cavalry”).

 

Pursuant to the financing transaction with Cavalry, the Company issued to Cavalry a senior secured convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $1,150,000 (the “Note”). The Note has a maturity date of one year from September 29, 2021 and bears interest at a rate of 6% per annum, which is also payable on maturity. The net proceeds received by the Company were $1,035,000. The Note provided, among other covenants, for (i) optional conversion of amount due under the underlying loan into shares of the Company’s Common Stock, (ii) a mandatory conversion pursuant to which the principal amount and any accrued or unpaid interest automatically convert into the Company’s Common Stock, or into the Company’s Common Stock and warrants, if warrants are included in certain subsequent financing events, and (iii) encumbrances on all of the assets of the Company, including a lien on and security interest in all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Further, in connection with the Debt Restructuring, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement whereby the Company agreed to file a registration statement covering Cavalry’s resale of all of the Common Stock underlying the loan and the warrants following 30 days of entering into the Debt Restructuring. The Cavalry Bridge Loan was converted into 377,484 pre-funded units that include 377,484 pre-funded warrants with a restrictive legend with an exercise price of $0.01 per share and 377,484 warrants with an exercise price of $5.1875 per the mandatory conversion provisions of the Note. The effective date of the Note conversion was February 6, 2022. The Company is registering the corresponding shares underlying the pre-funded warrants and the warrants.

 

Promissory Notes

 

As part of the Debt Restructuring (as defined above), the Company also entered into replacement notes to extend the maturity on certain prior notes.

 

24
 

 

On July 1, 2021, the Company entered into a $600,000 unsecured Promissory Note with an accredited investor. The unsecured Promissory Note bears 12% interest per annum. The principal of the unsecured Promissory Note is due on July 1, 2022. The unsecured Promissory Note contains customary warranties, covenants and representations of the Company.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The preparation of financial statements and related footnotes requires us to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.

 

An accounting policy is considered to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and if different estimates that reasonably could have been used, or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact the financial statements.

 

Financial Reporting Release No. 60 requires all companies to include a discussion of critical accounting policies or methods used in the preparation of financial statements. There are no critical policies or decisions that rely on judgments that are based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made. Note 1 to the financial statements, included elsewhere in this report, includes a summary of the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Not applicable.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, Charles A. Ross, Jr., evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on the evaluation, Mr. Ross concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting him to material information relating to us required to be included in our periodic SEC filings. The Company hired a financial expert with the experience in creating and managing internal control systems as well to continue to improve the effectiveness of our internal controls and financial disclosure controls.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There has been no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

 

Internal control systems, no matter how well designed and operated, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even a system which is determined to be effective cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected or prevented. Our systems of internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

 

Part II: Other Information

 

Item 1 - Legal Proceedings

 

We are currently not involved in any material litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.

Item 1a – Risk Factors

 

Factors that could cause or contribute to differences in our future financial and operating results include those discussed in the risk factors set forth in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. These risks are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we do not currently consider significant may also have an adverse effect on the Company. If any of the risks actually occur, our business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition could suffer.
