Selling Shareholder Preliminary Prospectus

Subject to completion July 11, 2023

AMERIGUARD SECURITY SERVICES, INC.

3,585,946 Shares of Common Stock

 

This prospectus relates to the resale of up to 3,585,946 shares of common stock, $.001 par value, of Ameriguard Security Services, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company” or “AGSS”), by certain shareholders, as described herein (the “Selling Shareholders”). A portion of the Selling Shareholders held their shares for approximately ten (10) years, with them currently restricted under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. A certain Selling Shareholder was issued his shares in 2014 with a Rule 144 legend on it. Certain shareholders were issued an aggregate of 675,000 shares upon the conversion of preferred shares. The remaining Selling Shareholders were issued their shares of common stock on or about December 9, 2022, pursuant to a Definitive Share Exchange Agreement (the “AGSS Merger Agreement”) with Ameriguard Security Services, Inc., a California corporation, (“Ameriguard”) and Lawrence Garcia (“Garcia”) the majority shareholder of Ameriguard (the “Majority Shareholder”) and the minority shareholders of Ameriguard (“Minority Shareholders”). Under the AGSS Merger Agreement, One Hundred Percent (100%) of the ownership interest of Ameriguard was exchanged for an aggregate of 90,000,000 shares of common stock of AGSS issued to the Majority Shareholders and the Minority Shareholders, in accordance with the AGSS Merger Agreement (the “AGSS Merger”). The former stockholders of Ameriguard acquired a majority of the issued and outstanding common stock as a result of the share exchange transaction. Lawrence Garcia currently owns 86.26% of the issued and outstanding voting stock of the Company and will be able to exert significant influence and control over the Company for the foreseeable future.

 

We have 10,000,000 authorized and designated Series A-1 Preferred Stock which are entitled to seventy-two (72) votes per share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock on all matters on which stockholders may vote. While we currently have no such shares issued and outstanding, the voting rights afforded these Series A-1 Preferred Stock would give any future holders a disparate voting interest and allow them to potentially exert control over the actions of the Company.

 

The total amount of shares of common stock, which may be sold pursuant to this prospectus, would constitute approximately 6.22% of our issued and outstanding common stock as of May 5, 2023.

 

The Selling Shareholders are selling all the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus. It is anticipated that the Selling Shareholders will sell these shares of common stock from time to time in one or more transactions, at $1.18 per share. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the Selling Shareholders.

 

The Selling Shareholders are each an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act. In the event all shares are sold by the Selling Shareholders, each Selling Shareholder will realize net proceeds of $1.1799 per share and the aggregate net proceeds to the Selling Shareholders would be $4,231,416.28.

 

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Markets Pink under the symbol “AGSS.” On May 17, 2023, the closing price of our common stock was $.92255 per share on the OTC Pink. These prices will fluctuate based on the demand for our common stock.

 

We may amend or supplement this prospectus from time to time by filing amendments or supplements as required. You should read the entire prospectus and any amendments or supplements carefully before you make your investment decision. The Company is not a blank check company because it has a specific business purpose and has no plans or intention to merge with an operating company. To our knowledge, none of the Company’s shareholders have plans to enter a change of control or change of management. None of our current management has previously been involved with a development stage company that did not implement its business plan, that generated no or minimal revenues or was engaged in a change of control.

Corporate History

 

The Company was incorporated in Nevada on December 13, 2010.

 

The Company intended to become a provider of revenue cycle services to a broad range of healthcare providers. We offer our customers integrated solutions designed around their specific business needs, including revenue cycle data analysis, contract and outsourced coding, billing, coding and compliance audits, coding education, coding consulting, physician coding services and ICD-10 education and transition services.

 

On February 10, 2012, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “HRAA Merger Agreement”) with Health Revenue Assurance Holdings, Inc. (formerly known as Anvex International, Inc., “HRAH”), a Nevada company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary Health Revenue Acquisition Corporation (“Acquisition Sub”), which was treated for accounting purposes as a reverse recapitalization with HRAA, considered the accounting acquirer. Each share of HRAA’s common stock was exchanged for the right to receive approximately 1,271 shares of HRAH’s common stock. Before their entry into the HRAA Merger Agreement, no material relationship existed between HRAH and Acquisition Sub or HRAA. On April 27, 2012, the Company completed a 12.98 to 1 forward stock split. On May 2, 2012, the Company changed its ticker symbol from ANVX to HRAA.

 

The Company then went dormant in August 2014.

 

On July 14, 2020, as a result of a custodianship in Clark County, Nevada, Case Number: A816259, Custodian Ventures LLC (“Custodian”) was appointed Custodian of the Company.

 

On July 15, 2020 Custodian appointed David Lazar as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President, Secretary, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors.

 

On September 8, 2021, under the terms of a private stock purchase agreement, 10,000,000 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Shares”) of the Company, were transferred from Custodian Ventures, LLC to Ameriguard Security Services, Inc. California corporation (Ameriguard). As a result, Ameriguard became holder of approximately 91% of the voting rights of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company on a fully-diluted basis of the Company, and became the controlling shareholder. The consideration paid for the 10,000,000 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock was $500,000. In connection with the transaction, David Lazar forgave the Company from all debts owed to him and/or Custodian Ventures, LLC.

 

On September 8, 2021, the Company accepted the resignations from David Lazar as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, Secretary and as a Member of the Board of Directors. Effective on the same date to fill the vacancies created by Mr. Lazar’s resignations, the Company appointed Lawrence Garcia as the Company’s President, CEO, CFO, Treasurer, Secretary, and Chairman of the Board of Directors. These resignations are in connection with the consummation of the private stock purchase agreement and was not the result of any disagreement with Company on any matter relating to Company’s operations, policies or practices.

 

On March 11, 2022, the Company, amended its articles of incorporation to change its name to Ameriguard Security Services, Inc. from Health Revenue Assurance Holdings, Inc. The name was deemed effective by FINRA on March 17, 2022.

 

We have 10,000,000 authorized and designated Series A-1 Preferred Stock which are entitled to seventy-two (72) votes per share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock on all matters on which stockholders may vote. While we currently have no such shares issued and outstanding, the voting rights afforded these Series A-1 Preferred Stock would give any future holders a disparate voting interest and allow them to potentially exert control over the actions of the Company.

Pursuant to the AGSS Merger Agreement, we acquired the business of Ameriguard and will continue the existing business of Ameriguard as our wholly owned subsidiary.

 

Ameriguard was formed on November 14, 2002. The corporation was incorporated with the issuance of 1,000 common shares formerly held by Lawrence Garcia, President and CEO with 550 shares and Lillian Flores, former VP of Operations with 450 shares. On July 12, 2022 under the terms of a Settlement Agreement, Flores exchanged her 450 shares for consideration of $3,384,950 and a promissory note in that amount secured by a stock pledge. Ameriguard provides armed guard services as a federal contractor with licenses in 7 states and provides commercial guard services in California.

 

Lawrence Garcia currently owns 86.26% of the issued and outstanding voting stock of the Company and will be able to exert significant influence and control over the Company for the foreseeable future.

 

Ameriguard principally provides guard services to governmental, quasi-governmental and commercial property management. Guard services generated $24.6 million in revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Guard services include, providing armed and unarmed uniformed security personnel for access control, mobile patrols, traffic control, security console/system operators, fire safety directors, communication, reception, concierge and front desk/doorman operations.

Employees

 

As of March 31, 2022, we had 313 full-time employees, 237 of these employees are represented by collective bargaining agreements and the Company considers it relations with its employees to be very good.

 

Our Industry

 

Security guard and related services in the US is comprised of over 11,000 companies and 900,000 officers. We compete with top firms, such as Allied Universal, Securitas, G4S and Prosegur Security, which control the majority of the industry. Ameriguard’s approximately $24.6 million in annual revenue places it in a strong competitive position.

 

We believe that the top 40 companies have the resources to harness technology, to expand their business into related services other than guard services. Companies with over $50 million in revenue have, over the last 10 years, experienced steady growth while those guard companies under $20 million, the remaining 9,900 firms, have experienced declining revenues. We believe that the principal reason for this is the steady diversification of security services away from the traditional guard services to areas of utilization of technology requiring capital. Along with this, we believe that the profitability challenges below $20 million annual sales are much more difficult that above $50 million is sales, largely due to the significant economies of scale achieve at the higher revenue levels.

 

The proliferation of technology while increasing efficacy in performance and inevitably lower costs in the future, the impact on the contract security industry will likely have mixed results – positive for companies who harness technology into their service delivery strategies – and negative for those companies who fail to invest in or adopt these service-enhancing capabilities. Despite the advances in the U.S. contract guarding business over recent years, there remains a question as to the industry’s viability in view of the increasing trend for integrating manned services with security systems (i.e. security video, access control and monitoring) along with the emergence of other new smart technology options and solutions (i.e. robotics, drones, cybersecurity and crowd sharing alert notification).

 

The recent merger and acquisition trend, primarily by the major national and international security organizations and fueled by investment and funding from private equity firms, is continuing. The underlying reason for this shift is less obvious and suggests an increasing number of sellers who concluded that their better option was to exit and sell rather than remain in the marketplace and try to compete and organically grow their market share.

 

Despite its low barriers of entry and nominal capital requirements, the security guard business has become more challenging for the smaller owner/operator. The traditionally historic advantage of the smaller operator’s ability to offer relationship-driven customized services is no longer totally sufficient for sustainable growth – especially with the increasing regulatory challenges of the Affordable Care Act, federal and state minimum wage laws, Family Medical Leave Act and state laws (i.e. meal and rest break reporting and now, predictive scheduling).

Even stronger local and smaller regional companies are finding it more difficult to protect their client base and grow revenues under increasing regulatory as well as competitive pressures. Larger regional and national organizations are dealing with the regulatory climate while growing market share by leveraging infrastructure, technology, economies of scale with more aggressive pricing and better service reliability. This approach appears to offer a more compelling value proposition from the client’s perspective, which seems evident by the higher client retention rates reported by the major security companies.

 

However, this consolidating trend may not be inevitable for the future as newer, more tech-savvy owner/operators enter the business and recognize how to adopt best practices with a variety of sophisticated third-party software platforms and applications to help level the playing field. These include talent management and on-boarding applications to attract, hire and maintain a more skilled and reliable workforce; integrated labor management platforms to control scheduling, compliance, operations, payroll, billing and financial reporting; and state-of-the-art social media marketing applications.

 

The contract security industry should now be able to more effectively capitalize on and penetrate opportunities in a $20 billion in-house market – especially for those companies who have invested and integrated technology into a more highly reliable ecosystem of protective services.

 

For the foreseeable future, the U.S. manned guarding business seems likely for continued sustainable growth. While the technology/manpower ratio may shift the revenue mix going forward, based on today’s currently expanding U.S. economy, the prospects for an aggregate growth rate of four percent or more seem realistic and perhaps even conservative, especially for ownership who have prudently invested in technology enhancements to their core guarding operations.

 

Providing these strategies can yield an attractive ROI, increase operating profits (EBITDA ranges of four to six percent and higher) and enterprise valuations, this industry seems not only viable but also opportune for further investment consideration.

Regulatory Matters/Compliance

 

Each State has specific licensing requirements companies must meet to perform guard services, especially armed guard services. To date, the Company holds firearm licenses in over twelve States and does not foresee any license or governmental requirements preventing us from continuing to operate in any State a contract is awarded to us. As a company with over 300 employees, we are subject to all of the standard federal and state labor laws and have consistently met those requirements to date, including ERISA.

 

Properties

 

The Company’s corporate headquarters is located at 5470 W. Spruce Avenue, Suite 102, Fresno CA. The lease is currently month to month. Landlord has not indicated a desire for a new lease. Our lease payments are a total of $55,767 for the entire term (or, $4,230 per month).

 

Legal Proceedings

 

While we have not been involved in any litigation related to the performance of our guard services, armed or otherwise, to date, as an armed guard Company with contracts with Governmental entities is a possibility of legal proceedings that could be more serious than the average business. From time to time, the Company is involved in matters relating to claims arising from the ordinary course of business, but those claims have been labor and union related and have been settled on an administrative level not in court.

 

While the results of such claims and legal actions cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company’s management does not believe that there are claims or actions, pending or threatened against the Company, the ultimate disposition of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our securities is highly speculative and subject to numerous and substantial risks. These risks are set forth below. You should not invest in the Company unless you can afford to lose your entire investment. Readers are encouraged to review these risks carefully before making any investment decision.

 

Risks Related to Our Corporate Business:

 

Concentration of Revenue

 

The company receives over 87% of its total revenue from four Federal contracts. These contracts have specific terms, typically five years with the opportunity for extension, but there are no assurances they will be extended. Although we have had several extended in the past, there is no guarantee this will again happened in the future. However, there are significant direct expenses for each contract that also are removed from operations at the end of a contract. As a result, the revenue lost from a completed contract does not affect the bottom-line profits in an amount equal to the revenue lost. The actual net income impact depends on the contract. To mitigate this risk the company actively pursues additional contracts on an ongoing basis.

 

Long process in acquiring contracts

 

The process required to acquire a government contract takes several months to complete prior to delivery of the proposal to the contracting agency. Due to the time span required to prepare a proposal and wining the contract is not guaranteed, the company maintains a department of individuals who monitor and write proposals for all government contracts that fit our operating criteria that become open for bid on a continuing basis. It is important to the company that new contracts are acquired consistently to maintain and grow annual revenue

 

The growth of the Company is dependent on acquisition opportunities 

 

With our revenue materially concentrated and our timeline to organic growth very drawn out, we are dependent on closing acquisitions over the next eighteen months in order to grow. Failure to close on acquisitions, or a lack of synergy with our target companies, could stall growth and, eventually, cause a material decline in our financial situation. The Company does not currently have any agreements with potential acquisition targets.

 

Transitioning from carve out contracts to open market contracts

 

Currently the company benefits from several ownership criteria and business size contract qualifications, referred to as contract carveouts, that increases the probability of contract awards. The company meets the contracting qualifications of disabled veteran and minority owned business. Another aspect of contract opportunities is set aside for small businesses. This is defined as those who have operating revenue on average over the past five (5) years under $25.5 million. Currently the company is below this threshold, yet our strategic plan is to move past the average revenue limits within the next 24 months. This should not be seen as a negative in that we will only exceed this limit once we reach annual revenue of $40 million or more during the next 24 months, putting us in an excellent financial position to compete with the much larger companies who operate in the $50-$100 million revenue level. Another aspect of our strategy is to acquire similar guard companies who already have small business contracts with the government, which add significantly to our bottom line putting us in even a better position to win additional large government contracts.

 

Currently we have four federal contracts that approximate 87% of our total guard service revenue for the year ended December 31,2022. All federal contracts are awarded with a term of 5 years, with annual renewals. At the end of each contract year the government has the option to renew, cancel or renegotiate. Our four contracts and their respective terms are as follows:

 

  Social Security Administration, NSC   -

September 2022 through September 2027

Annual Revenue of approx. $3.145M

           
  Social security Administration, SSC    -

June 2022 through June 2027

Annual Revenue of approx. $4.932M

           
  Social Security Administration, WBDOC   -

June 2021 through July 2026

Annual Revenue of approx. $5.838M

           
  National Institute of Health- EPA   -

May 2020 through March 2025

Annual Revenue of approx. $7.514M

Staffing Shortages

 

The guard industry suffers from staffing shortages. This is an ongoing challenge and in its worst case can impact our ability to meet the requirements of the contracts awarded.

 

Impact of COVID

 

Initially the impact of the COVID pandemic was positive for the guard industry. Our industry is considered essential and with less activity at the sites we protect, we were able to meet and exceed the contract requirements with fewer staff and little to no overtime. As a result, each contract became more profitable than normal full operations. The challenges have actually come after the critical year of 2020. As the government began to require vaccinations for all employees and contractors, along with quarantine requirements, staffing became a big problem. Starting in 2021, these policies implemented by the federal government have made it very difficult for us to meet the staffing needs. COVID restriction rules on the local, state and national levels recruitment results are ending. Moving forward we anticipate any related recruitment issues to end.

 

Accelerating Inflation

 

All industries struggle when operating in times of inflation like we are experiencing in 2022. The results are increased pressure on salaries, operational costs increase due to higher fuel prices and the increased cost of all supplies. The one silver lining for the company is that federal contacts require that the salary increases that we negotiate with the labor union must be covered by increasing the monthly contracted rate. This of course is stipulated by contract that we do not exceed what is customary in the area with related contracts. This is significant in that guard salaries account for over 90% of operational costs, reducing the impact of inflation.

 

Key employees are essential to expanding our business.

 

Lawrence Garcia and other key employees are essential to our ability to continue to grow and expand our business. Mr. Garcia, as CEO and majority shareholder, allows the company to bid on the restricted contracts that we discussed, in the “Transitioning from carve out contracts to open market contract” paragraph on the previous page. Other long-term employees have significant impact on the success of operations and understanding of the industry. They have established relationships within the industry in which we operate. If Mr. Garcia or any of the long-term employees were to leave the company, our growth strategy might be hindered, which could materially affect our business and limit our ability to increase revenue. However, we are taking steps to implement process and procedure to insure no single person lost would be detrimental to our long- term success.

 

If we are unable to establish appropriate internal financial reporting controls and procedures, it could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations, result in the restatement of our financial statements, harm our operating results, subject us to regulatory scrutiny and sanction, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and have a negative effect on the market price for shares of our Common Stock.

 

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and to effectively prevent fraud. We maintain a system of internal control over financial reporting, which is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

 

As a public company, we have significant requirements for enhanced financial reporting and internal controls. We will be required to document and test our internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. The process of designing and implementing effective internal controls is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory environments and to expend significant resources to maintain a system of internal controls that is adequate to satisfy our reporting obligations as a public company.

 

Although our management team, CEO and CFO, have not specifically managed a publicly traded company, we do have experience with the issues and requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The company CFO is a California CPA with over 30 years of experience in business operations and has been through multiple financial statement audits that required compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

Technology innovations in the markets that we serve may create alternatives to our products and result in reduced sales.

 

Technology innovations to which our current and potential customers might have access to, could reduce or eliminate their need for our services. New or other disruptive technology that reduces or eliminates the use of one or more of our services could negatively impact the need for our services. However, our management team and board of directors are aware of this challenge and are very innovative and forward thinking. Yet, our failure to develop, introduce or enhance our services able to compete with new technologies in a timely manner could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operation and financial condition. The management team is continually focused on improvements and new technology to insure we are not left behind.

 

We may engage in a business combination that causes tax consequences to us and our shareholders.

 

Federal and state tax consequences can be a significant factor in considering any business combination that we may undertake. As a result, such transactions may be subject to significant taxation to the buyer and its shareholders under applicable federal and state tax laws. While we intend to structure any business combination so as to minimize the federal and state tax consequences to the extent practicable in accordance with our business objectives, there can be no assurance that any business combination we undertake will meet the statutory or regulatory requirements of a tax-free reorganization or similar favorable treatment or that the parties to such a transaction will obtain the tax treatment intended or expected upon a transfer of equity interests or assets. A non-qualifying reorganization, combination or similar transaction could result in the imposition of significant taxation, both at the federal and state levels, which may have an adverse effect on both parties to the transaction, including our shareholders.

 

It is unlikely that our shareholders will have any opportunity to evaluate or approve a business combination.

 

Our shareholders will not have the opportunity to evaluate and approve the business combination. In most cases, business combinations do not require shareholder approval under applicable law, and our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws do not afford our shareholders with the right to approve such a transaction. Further, Mr. Garcia, our Chief Executive Officer and sole director, is the holder of over 86% of the voting rights of the Company on a fully diluted basis. Accordingly, our shareholders will be relying almost exclusively on the judgement of our board of directors (“Board”) and Chief Executive Officer and any persons on whom they may rely with respect to a potential business combination. To develop and implement our business plan, may in the future hire lawyers, accountants, technical experts, appraisers, or other consultants to assist with determining the Company’s direction’ and consummating any transactions contemplated thereby. We may rely on such persons in making difficult decisions in connection with the Company’s future business and prospects. The selection of any such persons will be made by our Board, and any expenses incurred, or decisions made based on any of the foregoing could prove to be averse to the Company in hindsight, the result of which could be diminished value to our shareholders.

 

Risks Related to Our Stockholders and Purchasing Shares of Common Stock

 

We have not voluntarily implemented various corporate governance measures.

 

Federal legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has resulted in the adoption of various corporate governance measures designed to promote the integrity of the corporate management and the securities markets. Some of these measures have been adopted in response to legal requirements. Others have been adopted by companies in response to the requirements of national securities exchanges, such as the NYSE or The NASDAQ Stock Market, on which their securities are listed. Among the corporate governance measures that are required under the rules of national securities exchanges are those that address board of directors’ independence, audit committee oversight and the adoption of a Code of Ethics. Our Board of Directors expects to adopt a Code of Ethics at its next Board meeting. The Company has not adopted exchange-mandated corporate governance measures and, since our securities are not listed on a national securities exchange, we are not required to do so. It is possible that if we were to adopt some or all these corporate governance measures, stockholders would benefit from somewhat greater assurances that internal corporate decisions were being made by disinterested directors and that policies had been implemented to define responsible conduct. For example, in the absence of audit, nominating and compensation committees comprised of at least most independent directors, decisions concerning matters such as compensation packages to our senior officers and recommendations for director nominees may be made by most directors who have an interest in the outcome of the matters being decided. Prospective investors should bear in mind our current lack of corporate governance measures in formulating their investment decisions.

We may be exposed to potential risks relating to our internal control over financial reporting.

 

As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX 404”), the SEC has adopted rules requiring public companies to include a report of management on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting in its annual reports. While we expect to expend significant resources in developing the necessary documentation and testing procedures required by SOX 404, there is a risk that we will not comply with all the requirements imposed thereby. At present, there is no precedent available with which to measure compliance adequately. In the event we identify significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that we cannot remediate in a timely manner, investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements and our ability to obtain equity or debt financing could suffer.

 

We have many authorized but unissued shares of our common stock.

 

We have many authorized but unissued shares of common stock, which our management may issue without further stockholder approval, thereby causing dilution of your holdings of our common stock. Our management will continue to have broad discretion to issue shares of our common stock in a range of transactions, including capital-raising transactions, mergers, acquisitions and other transactions, without obtaining stockholder approval, unless stockholder approval is required. If our management determines to issue shares of our common stock from the large pool of authorized but unissued shares for any purpose in the future, your ownership position would be diluted without your further ability to vote on that transaction.

 

While we have no preferred shares issued and outstanding, we have authorized and designated 10,000,000 shares as Series A-1 Preferred Shares with super-voting and conversion rights.

 

While there are no shares of Preferred stock outstanding, the Company has authorized and designated 10,000,000 shares as Series A-1 Preferred Stock, which (i) have preferred equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available therefore, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors of the Company; (ii) hold distribution preferences upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company (iii) convert into seventy-two (72) shares, for each share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, at the discretion of the holder; and (iv) are entitled to seventy-two (72) votes per share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock on all matters on which stock holders may vote. This dual-class structure may render our shares ineligible for inclusion in certain stock market indices, and thus adversely affect share price and liquidity, and may adversely affect public sentiment. Furthermore, any future issuances of Series A-1 preferred stock may be dilutive to the voting power and value of our common stock shareholders.

 

Shares of our common stock may become illiquidity because our shares may begin to be thinly traded and may never become eligible for trading on a national securities exchange.

 

While we may at some point be able to meet the requirements necessary for our common stock to be listed on a national securities exchange, we cannot assure you that we will ever achieve a listing of our common stock on a national securities exchange. Our shares are currently only eligible for quotation on the OTC Pink, which is not an exchange. Initial listing on a national securities exchange is subject to a variety of requirements, including minimum trading price and minimum public “float” requirements, and could also be affected by the general skepticism of such markets concerning companies that are the result of mergers with inactive publicly-held companies. There are also continuing eligibility requirements for companies listed on public trading markets. If we are unable to satisfy the initial or continuing eligibility requirements of any such market, then our stock may not be listed or could be delisted. This could result in a lower trading price for our common stock and may limit your ability to sell your shares, any of which could result in you losing some or all your investments.

 

The market valuation of our business may fluctuate due to factors beyond our control and the value of your investment may fluctuate correspondingly.

 

The market valuation of smaller reporting companies, such as us, frequently fluctuate due to factors unrelated to the past or present operating performance of such companies. Our market valuation may fluctuate significantly in response to several factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:

 

  i. changes in securities analysts’ estimates of our financial performance, although there are currently no analysts covering our stock;

 

8

 

 

  ii. fluctuations in stock market prices and volumes, particularly among securities of smaller reporting companies;

 

  iii. changes in market valuations of similar companies;

 

  iv. announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, new technologies, acquisitions, commercial relationships, joint ventures or capital commitments;

 

  v. variations in our quarterly operating results;

 

  vi. fluctuations in related commodities prices; and

 

  vii. additions or departures of key personnel.

 

As a result, the value of your investment in us may fluctuate.

 

We have never paid dividends on our common stock.

 

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not presently intend to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Investors should not look to dividends as a source of income.

 

In the interest of reinvesting initial profits back into our business, we do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, any economic return will initially be derived, if at all, from appreciation in the fair market value of our stock, and not because of dividend payments.

 

Future sales or perceived sales of our common stock could depress our stock price.

 

This resale prospectus covers 3,585,946 shares of common stock. If the holders of these shares were to attempt to sell a substantial amount of their holdings at once, the market price of our common stock could decline. Moreover, the perceived risk of this potential dilution could cause shareholders to attempt to sell their shares and investors to short the common stock, a practice in which an investor sells shares that he or she does not own at prevailing market prices, hoping to purchase shares later at a lower price to cover the sale. As each of these events would cause the number of shares of our common stock being offered for sale to increase, our common stock market price would likely further decline. All these events could combine to make it very difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem appropriate.

 

Due to factors beyond our control, our stock price may be volatile.

 

Any of the following factors could affect the market price of our common stock:

 

  The continued COVID-19 pandemic and its adverse impact upon the capital markets;

 

  The loss of one or more members of our management team;

 

  Our failure to generate material revenues;

 

  Regulatory changes including new laws and rules which adversely affect companies in our line of business;

 

  Our public disclosure of the terms of any financing which we consummate in the future;

 

  An announcement that we have effected a reverse split of our common stock;

 

9

 

 

  Our failure to become profitable;

 

  Our failure to raise working capital;

 

  Any acquisitions we may consummate;

 

  Announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, new services, acquisitions, commercial relationships, joint ventures or capital commitments;

 

  Cancellation of key contracts;

 

  Our failure to meet financial forecasts we publicly disclose;

 

  Short selling activities; or

 

  Changes in market valuations of similar companies.

 

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted. A securities class action suit against us could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s time and attention, which would otherwise be used to benefit our business.

 

Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline.

 

The existence of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, creates a circumstance commonly referred to as an “overhang” which can act as a depressant to our common stock price. The existence of an overhang, whether sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make our ability to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-linked securities more difficult in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate. If our existing shareholders and investors seek to sell a substantial number of shares of our common stock, such selling efforts may cause significant declines in the market price of our common stock.

 

Because we may issue preferred stock without the approval of our shareholders and have other anti-takeover defenses, it may be more difficult for a third party to acquire us and could depress our stock price.

 

In general, our Board may issue, without a vote of our shareholders, one or more additional series of preferred stock that have more than one vote per share. Additionally, issuance of preferred stock could block an acquisition resulting in both a drop in our stock price and a decline in interest of our common stock. This could make it more difficult for shareholders to sell their common stock. This could also cause the market price of our common stock shares to drop significantly, even if our business is performing well.

 

Because certain of our stockholders control a significant number of shares of our voting capital stock, they have effective control over actions requiring stockholder approval.

 

As of March 27, 2023, Lawrence Garcia, our Chief Executive Officer, effectively held 86.26% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock. As a result, Mr. Garcia can control the outcome of matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all our assets. In addition, Mr. Garcia can control the management and affairs of our company. Accordingly, any investors who purchase shares will be minority shareholders and as such will have little to no say in the direction of us and the election of directors. Additionally, this concentration of ownership might harm the market price of our common stock by:

 

  delaying, deferring or preventing a change in corporate control;

 

  impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination involving us; or

 

  discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us

 

10

 

 

Our common stock is considered a “penny stock.”

 

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions. The market price of our common stock is currently less than $5.00 per share and therefore may be a “penny stock.” Brokers and dealers effecting transactions in “penny stock” must disclose certain information concerning the transaction, obtain a written agreement from the purchaser and determine that the purchaser is reasonably suitable to purchase the securities. These rules may restrict the ability of brokers or dealers to sell our common stock and may affect your ability to sell shares.

 

Shareholders may be limited to a specific forum for bringing actions against the Company.

 

The Company has selected the Eighth Judicial District Court of Clark County, Nevada, to be the sole and exclusive forum for each of the following: (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought in the name or right of the Corporation or on its behalf, (b) any action asserting a claim for breach of any fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation to the Corporation or the Corporation’s stockholders, (c) any action arising or asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of NRS Chapters 78 or 92A or any provision of the Articles of Incorporation or these By-laws or (d) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine, including, without limitation, any action to interpret, apply, enforce or determine the validity of the Articles of Incorporation or these By-laws. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of the corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to this provision. This could make it harder for a shareholder to bring an action against the Company or any of the officers or directors of the Company.

THE SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

 

A portion of the Selling Shareholders held their shares for approximately ten (10) years, with them currently restricted under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. A certain Selling Shareholder was issued his shares in 2014 with a Rule 144 legend on it. Certain shareholders were issued an aggregate of 675,000 shares upon the conversion of preferred shares. The remaining Selling Shareholders were issued their shares of common stock on or about December 9, 2022, pursuant to the AGSS Merger Agreement, whereby Ameriguard became a wholly owned subsidiary of AGSS, and AGSS its only shareholder. The Selling Shareholders relinquished all of their Ameriguard common shares, in exchange for the shares of common stock being registered in this registration statement on Form S-1.

 

All expenses incurred with respect to the registration of the common stock will be borne by the Company, but we will not be obligated to pay any underwriting fees, discounts, commission or other expenses incurred by Selling Shareholders in connection with the sale of such shares. 

 

Other than Martha Garcia, Lawrence Garcia, Jr., and Laura Garcia, none of the Selling Shareholders nor any of their associates or affiliates has held any position, office, or other material relationship with us in the past three years. Martha Garcia is the mother of Lawrence Garcia Lawrence Garcia, Jr. is the son of Mr. Garcia. Laura Garcia is sister of Mr. Garcia. None of these three individuals would be deemed affiliates, as each is an adult individual, living in a separate residence from Lawrence Garcia, our CEO.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

This prospectus relates to the resale of up to 3,585,946 shares of our common stock by the Selling Shareholders, at a fixed price per share of $1.18, issued pursuant to the AGSS Merger Agreement.

 

Each of the Selling Shareholders is an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act.

 

The Selling Shareholders, and any of their pledgees, donees, assignees and other successors-in-interest may, from time to time sell any or all their shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales must be at a fixed price of $1.18 per share. The Selling Shareholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

 

  ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits the purchaser;
     
  block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal;
     
  facilitate the transaction;
     
  purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
     
  an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
     
  privately negotiated transactions;
     
  broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Shareholders to sell a specified number of such shares at the fixed price per share of $1.18;
     
  through the writing of options on the shares
     
  a combination of any such methods of sale; and
     
  any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The Selling Shareholders, as applicable, shall have the sole and absolute discretion not to accept any purchase offer or make any sale of shares if it deems the purchase price to be unsatisfactory at any time.

 

The Selling Shareholders may also sell the shares directly to market makers acting as principals and/or broker-dealers acting as agents for themselves or their customers. Such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the Selling Shareholders and/or the purchasers of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as principal or both, which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be more than customary commissions. Market makers and block purchasers purchasing the shares will do so for their own account and at their own risk. Each such registered broker-dealer will be an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. We cannot assure that all or any of the shares offered in this prospectus will be sold by the Selling Shareholders. The Selling Shareholders, and any broker-dealers or agents, upon completing the sale of any of the shares offered in this prospectus, will be deemed to be “underwriters” as that term is defined under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of such acts. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them will be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.

 

The Selling Shareholders, alternatively, may sell all or any part of the shares offered in this prospectus through an underwriter. The Selling Shareholders have not entered into any agreement with a prospective underwriter and there is no assurance that any such agreement will be entered.

 

17

 

 

The Selling Shareholders may pledge its shares to its brokers under the margin provisions of customer agreements. If any of the Selling Shareholders default on a margin loan, the broker may, from time to time, offer and sell the pledged shares. The Selling Shareholders, and any other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the shares will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations under such act, including, without limitation, Regulation M. These provisions may restrict certain activities of and limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares by any of the Selling Shareholders, or any other such person. Under Regulation M, persons engaged in a distribution of securities are prohibited from simultaneously engaging in market making and certain other activities with respect to such securities for a specified period prior to the commencement of such distributions, subject to specified exceptions or exemptions. All these limitations may affect the marketability of the shares.

 

The Selling Shareholders will be offering such shares for its own account. We do not know for certain how or when the Selling Shareholders will choose to sell its shares of common stock. However, it can sell such shares at any time or through any manner set forth in this plan of distribution.

 

To permit the Selling Shareholders to resell the shares of common stock issued to it, we agreed to file a registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part, and all necessary amendments and supplements with the SEC for the purpose of registering and maintaining the registration of the shares. We will bear all costs relating to the registration of the common stock offered by this prospectus, other than the costs of our independent legal review. We will keep the registration statement effective until the earlier of (i) the date after which all of the shares of common stock held by the Selling Shareholders that are covered by the registration statement have been sold by the Selling Shareholders pursuant to such registration statement and (ii) the first day of the month next following the 36-month anniversary of the date the registration statement, to which this prospectus is made a part, is declared effective by the SEC.

BUSINESS

 

Changes to the Business.

 

We intend to continue Ameriguard’s line of business. Ameriguard principally provides guard services to governmental, quasi-governmental and commercial property management. Guard services generated $24.6 million in revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Guard services include, providing armed and unarmed uniformed security personnel for access control, mobile patrols, traffic control, security console/system operators, fire safety directors, communication, reception, concierge and front desk/doorman operations.

 

Corporation Information

 

Our principal executive offices are currently located at 5470 W Spruce Ave Suite 102 Fresno CA 93722.

Employees

 

As of March 31, 2022, we had 313 full-time employees, 237 of these employees are represented by collective bargaining agreements and the Company considers its relations with its employees to be very good.

 

Corporate History

 

The Company was incorporated in Nevada on December 13, 2010.

 

The Company intended to become a provider of revenue cycle services to a broad range of healthcare providers. We offer our customers integrated solutions designed around their specific business needs, including revenue cycle data analysis, contract and outsourced coding, billing, coding and compliance audits, coding education, coding consulting, physician coding services and ICD-10 education and transition services.

 

On February 10, 2012, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “HRAA Merger Agreement”) with Health Revenue Assurance Holdings, Inc. (formerly known as Anvex International, Inc., “HRAH”), a Nevada company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary Health Revenue Acquisition Corporation (“Acquisition Sub”), which was treated for accounting purposes as a reverse recapitalization with HRAA, considered the accounting acquirer. Each share of HRAA’s common stock was exchanged for the right to receive approximately 1,271 shares of HRAH’s common stock. Before their entry into the HRAA Merger Agreement, no material relationship existed between HRAH and Acquisition Sub or HRAA. On April 27, 2012, the Company completed a 12.98 to 1 forward stock split. On May 2, 2012, the Company changed its ticker symbol from ANVX to HRAA.

 

The Company then went dormant in August 2014.

 

On July 14, 2020, as a result of a custodianship in Clark County, Nevada, Case Number: A816259, Custodian Ventures LLC (“Custodian”) was appointed Custodian of the Company.

 

On July 15, 2020 Custodian appointed David Lazar as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President, Secretary, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors.

 

On September 8, 2021, under the terms of a private stock purchase agreement, 10,000,000 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Shares”) of the Company, were transferred from Custodian Ventures, LLC to Ameriguard Security Services, Inc. California corporation (Ameriguard). As a result, Ameriguard became holder of approximately 91% of the voting rights of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company on a fully-diluted basis of the Company, and became the controlling shareholder. The consideration paid for the Shares was $500,000. In connection with the transaction, David Lazar forgave the Company from all debts owed to him and/or Custodian Ventures, LLC.

 

19

 

 

On September 8, 2021, the Company accepted the resignations from David Lazar as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, Secretary and as a Member of the Board of Directors. Effective on the same date to fill the vacancies created by Mr. Lazar’s resignations, the Company appointed Lawrence Garcia as the Company’s President, CEO, CFO, Treasurer, Secretary, and Chairman of the Board of Directors. These resignations are in connection with the consummation of the private stock purchase agreement and was not the result of any disagreement with Company on any matter relating to Company’s operations, policies or practices.

 

On March 11, 2022, the Company, amended its articles of incorporation to change its name to Ameriguard Security Services, Inc. from Health Revenue Assurance Holdings, Inc. The name was deemed effective by FINRA on March 17, 2022.

 

Pursuant to the AGSS Merger Agreement, we acquired the business of Ameriguard and will continue the existing business of Ameriguard as our wholly owned subsidiary.

 

Ameriguard was formed on November 14, 2002. The corporation was incorporated with the issuance of 1,000 common shares formerly held by Lawrence Garcia, President and CEO with 550 shares and Lillian Flores, former VP of Operations with 450 shares. On July 12, 2022 under the terms of a Settlement Agreement, Flores exchanged her 450 shares for consideration of $3,384,950 and a promissory note in that amount secured by a stock pledge. Ameriguard provides armed guard services as a federal contractor with licenses in 7 states and provides commercial guard services in California.

 

Our Industry

 

Security guard and related services in the US is comprised of over 11,000 companies and 900,000 officers. We compete with top firms, such as Allied Universal, Securitas, G4S and Prosegur Security, which control the majority of the industry.. Ameriguard’s approximately $24.6 million in annual revenue places it in a strong competitive position.

 

We believe that the top 40 companies have the resources to harness technology, to expand their business into related services other than guard services. Companies with over $50 million in revenue have, over the last 10 years, experienced steady growth while those guard companies under $20 million, the remaining 9,900 firms, have experienced declining revenues. We believe that the principal reason for this is the steady diversification of security services away from the traditional guard services to areas of utilization of technology requiring capital. Along with this, we believe that the profitability challenges below $20 million annual sales are much more difficult that above $50 million is sales, largely due to the significant economies of scale achieve at the higher revenue levels.

 

The proliferation of technology while increasing efficacy in performance and inevitably lower costs in the future, the impact on the contract security industry will likely have mixed results – positive for companies who harness technology into their service delivery strategies – and negative for those companies who fail to invest in or adopt these service-enhancing capabilities. Despite the advances in the U.S. contract guarding business over recent years, there remains a question as to the industry’s viability in view of the increasing trend for integrating manned services with security systems (i.e. security video, access control and monitoring) along with the emergence of other new smart technology options and solutions (i.e. robotics, drones, cybersecurity and crowd sharing alert notification).

 

The recent merger and acquisition trend, primarily by the major national and international security organizations and fueled by investment and funding from private equity firms, is continuing. The underlying reason for this shift is less obvious and suggests an increasing number of sellers who concluded that their better option was to exit and sell rather than remain in the marketplace and try to compete and organically grow their market share.

 

Despite its low barriers of entry and nominal capital requirements, the security guard business has become more challenging for the smaller owner/operator. The traditionally historic advantage of the smaller operator’s ability to offer relationship-driven customized services is no longer totally sufficient for sustainable growth – especially with the increasing regulatory challenges of the Affordable Care Act, federal and state minimum wage laws, Family Medical Leave Act and state laws (i.e. meal and rest break reporting and now, predictive scheduling).

 

20

 

 

Even stronger local and smaller regional companies are finding it more difficult to protect their client base and grow revenues under increasing regulatory as well as competitive pressures. Larger regional and national organizations are dealing with the regulatory climate while growing market share by leveraging infrastructure, technology, economies of scale with more aggressive pricing and better service reliability. This approach appears to offer a more compelling value proposition from the client’s perspective, which seems evident by the higher client retention rates reported by the major security companies.

 

However, this consolidating trend may not be inevitable for the future as newer, more tech-savvy owner/operators enter the business and recognize how to adopt best practices with a variety of sophisticated third-party software platforms and applications to help level the playing field. These include talent management and on-boarding applications to attract, hire and maintain a more skilled and reliable workforce; integrated labor management platforms to control scheduling, compliance, operations, payroll, billing and financial reporting; and state-of-the-art social media marketing applications.

 

The contract security industry should now be able to more effectively capitalize on and penetrate opportunities in a $20 billion in-house market – especially for those companies who have invested and integrated technology into a more highly reliable ecosystem of protective services.

 

For the foreseeable future, the U.S. manned guarding business seems likely for continued sustainable growth. While the technology/manpower ratio may shift the revenue mix going forward, based on today’s currently expanding U.S. economy, the prospects for an aggregate growth rate of four percent or more seem realistic and perhaps even conservative, especially for ownership who have prudently invested in technology enhancements to their core guarding operations.

 

Providing these strategies can yield an attractive ROI, increase operating profits (EBITDA ranges of four to six percent and higher) and enterprise valuations, this industry seems not only viable but also opportune for further investment consideration

Competitive Position

 

We believe that, based on our structure, we are uniquely positioned in the market currently allowing us to acquire additional government contracts and acquire competing companies in our industry. Our status as a small business that is minority and disabled veteran owned, gives us an edge on the special “carve out” contracts that we have discussed previously. The number of companies that meet this special criterion are fewer, increasing our odds of being awarded certain contracts. At the same time, having access to the public capital market could provide the capital needed to purchase competitors participating in the government market. Our experience and administrative capacity could ensure positive bottom-line impact from each acquisition. The Company does not currently have any agreements with potential acquisition targets. Additionally, our Board members have been selected due to their experience within the government contracting market. This adds support and insight that could be valuable to the successful bidding process. Finally, we believe that access to the capital could allow us to acquire businesses not in directly in our industry but can bring added value to our Company, such as: Cyber Security, Transportation, Surveillance, and industry related supplies.

 

TransportUS, Inc.

 

While the Company explored the purchase of TransportUS, Inc., a California corporation owned by Lawrence Garcia, the board of directors has determined, following due diligence, that the financial statements of TransportUS, Inc. are not in a form that can be audited under US GAAP. We have therefore abandoned such undertaking for the foreseeable future.

 

21

 

 

Regulatory Matters/Compliance

 

Each State has specific licensing requirements companies must meet to perform guard services, especially armed guard services. To date, the Company holds firearm licenses in over twelve States and does not foresee any license or governmental requirements preventing us from continuing to operate in any State a contract is awarded to us. As a company with over 300 employees, we are subject to all of the standard federal and state labor laws and have consistently met those requirements to date, including ERISA.

 

The Company is governed by individual State firearms laws.

 

Properties

 

The Company’s corporate headquarters is located at 5470 W. Spruce Avenue, Suite 102, Fresno CA. The lease is currently month to month. Landlord has not indicated a desire for a new lease. Our lease payments are a total of $55,767 for the entire term (or, $4,230 per month), which we believe is the current market rate.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

While we have not been involved in any litigation related to the performance of our guard services, armed or otherwise, to date, as an armed guard Company with contracts with Governmental entities is a possibility of legal proceedings that could be more serious than the average business. From time to time, the Company is involved in matters relating to claims arising from the ordinary course of business, but those claims have been labor and union related and have been settled on an administrative level not in court.

 

While the results of such claims and legal actions cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company’s management does not believe that there are claims or actions, pending or threatened against the Company, the ultimate disposition of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Corporate Structure

 

As previously mentioned, on December 9, 2022, AGSS executed a reverse merger with AmeriGuard resulting in AGSS becoming the sole owner of AmeriGuard. This merger establishes AGSS as a company operating a viable guard company with annual sales of approximately $24,000,000. It also is in the position to access the capital market to generate the capital needed to begin its growth strategy of mergers and acquisitions within the security industry. The Company does not currently have any agreements with potential acquisition targets.

 

Prior to and after the merger, AGSS has been working on developing the leadership team needed. We have in place a CEO with 20 years of experience in our industry and has been very successful in the government contracting market. Our CFO has over 35 years of business finance experience, the last 15 of which he has been focusing on organizational development consulting across multiple industries, and an Operations team on the east coast managing IT and our federal contracts.

 

Results of Operations for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022

 

Revenues and Cost of Goods Sold

 

2022 experienced a 10% increase of $2.2 million in security services revenue. The majority of which was from federal contracts in the amount of approximately $1.5 million and the remaining $700,000 from commercial guard services. The contract services revenue increase was the result of monthly fee increases within the four existing contract operated for during 2022 and 2021. As the costs of labor increases within the unionized contract so does the revenue. For the Commercial operations we saw a significant increase in demand for services, specifically our patrol services. Patrol services solve the problem of delayed police response. Our patrol officers respond to all alarms regardless of cause within 15 minutes of activation. This is a cost effect way for businesses to have protection without the high expense of a posted guard. This is an area of service we are continuing to expand.

We also had a significant increase of over $280,000 in other related income. This increase was due to a change in accounting practices. Prior to 2022, overhead expenses included management salaries were allocated to between AmeriGuard and three other related companies. As part of our transition to prepare for the reverse merger we shifted to management agreements between AmeriGuard and the other related entities. As a result, we saw both an increase in other revenues along with an increase in administrative expenses.

 

As with all professional service industries the vast majority of expense in with direct labor and expenses associated with that labor. We are not an exception. Our direct expenses average around 89% of revenues. Total cost of services increased approximately $1.3 million in 2022, and that increase is expected in relation to the revenue increase in 2022 as previously discussed.

 

Operating Expenses and Other Expense

 

Operation expenses, overhead expenses, increased in 2022 over 2021 by approximately $1.3 million. Slightly more than half of that increase was in administrative salaries and related payroll expenses, of approximately $796,000. As mentioned earlier in 2021 overhead expenses included administrative salaries were allocated between related companies. In 2022, all the salaries were expensed to AmeriGuard. Also, during 2022 as part of the reverse merger preparations, we added to our administrative team a full-time CFO, an HR Manager and an Operations Management team along with the necessary support positions in payroll and accounting. This was done in the preparations for the merger and the following expansion.

 

Other areas of expense increase were in the cost of vehicle operations of approximately $138,000 due to the leasing of four additional vehicles for patrols along with an increase in fuel costs. The category of General administrative expenses increased approximately $350,000. Approximately $100,000 of the increase related to expenses no longer allocated to the related companies as we did in 2021. Then the merger related expenses new to 2022 such as office rent in New York, marketing expenses, travel, shareholder buyout loan expense and Board of Director expenses totaling approximately $200,000. The remainder of the increase were minor changes in other operational expenses.

 

Other expenses in the amount of $344,105 that occurred in 2022, but not in 2021 are non-operational expenses related specifically to the preparations for and after the reverse merger. These expenses are legal, compliance, accounting and merger related expenses that are treated as non-operational expense to prevent distortions of operational net income or loss. It is anticipated that there will be continued non-operational expenses from ongoing capital raise activities moving forward.

 

At this time, our operating structure and current level of expense can handle twice the revenue stream with minor increases to our operating overhead expenses. This allows the entire gross profit of any new contract or company acquisition to go straight to the bottom line, providing a consistent return on investment.

 

Net Income/(Loss) from Operations

 

We had a net loss of $74,003 in the year ending December 31, 2022. The Company had a net income of $128,038 in the year ending December 31, 2021. The decrease in the Company’s income can be attributed to the increase in expenses we incurred in the year ended December 31, 2022. Our operational structure that drives these costs has excess capacity in anticipation of significant growth via new contracts or more specifically, company acquisitions. This allows additional revenue to go directly to our bottom line (see moving forward comments).

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company’s principal sources of liquidity include cash from operations and proceeds from long term debt financing. During the year ended December 31, 2022, operations generated net cash increase of approximately $223,500 while cash used from investing activities during the same period was approximately $266,600, with cash used from financing activities was approximately $859,000. The Company did not receive and proceeds from long term debt in 2022. The net decrease in cash for 2022 was approximately $902,000.

 

The main use of cash from financing activities was the first payment to shareholder from the shareholder buyout agreement signed in July 2022 in the amount of $686,990, as previously discussed. Other finance activities usage was SBA loan payments of $180,000 and owner distributions before merger in the amount of $63,000. The main use of cash in investing activities were office remodel expenses. The SBA loan is a 10-year loan with monthly principal and interest payments. Interest rate is variable at prime rate plus 2.75%, adjusted every calendar quarter. The interest rate on December 31, 2022, was 9%. Additional information is found in Note 6 of the notes to the financial statements.

 

On December 31, 2022, the Company had cash on hand of $1,226,600, with total current assets of $3,207,750.

Results of Operations for the three months ending March 31, 2023

 

Revenues and Cost of Goods Sold

 

The first quarter of 2023 experienced a 5.6% increase of approximately $325,000 in overall revenue over the previous year. The majority of which was from federal contracts and commercial services in the amount of approximately $288,000 and the remaining increase from training revenue. The contract services revenue increase was the result of monthly fee increases within the four existing contracts operated during both quarters. As the costs of labor increases within the unionized contract so does the revenue. For the Commercial operations we saw a significant increase in demand for services, specifically our patrol services. Patrol services solve the problem of delayed police response. Our patrol officers respond to all alarms regardless of cause within 15 minutes of activation. This is a cost effect way for businesses to have protection without the high expense of a posted guard. This is an area of service we are continuing to expand.

 

Like other professional service industries most of the expense is direct labor and the expenses associated with that labor. We are not an exception. Our direct expenses average around 90% of revenues. Total cost of services increased approximately $297,000 in 2023 over 2022, and that increase is as expected in relation to the revenue increase in 2023 as previously discussed.

 

Operating Expenses and Other Expense

 

Operation expenses, overhead expenses, increased in 2023 over 2022 by approximately $322,000. Over half of that increase, 42%, was in administrative salaries and related payroll expenses, of approximately $165,000. As part of the reverse merger preparations, we added to our administrative team a full-time CFO, an HR Management team and an Operations Management team along with the necessary support positions in payroll and accounting. We also experienced an increase in professional fees of approximately $70,000. These increases relate to the preparations for the merger and the following corporate expansion. We have established an administrative team with the capacity available to take the company to annual sales of $200 million and beyond.

 

The remaining increase in operations expenses varied between various expense accounts with both increases and decreases in total expense. Most of which were minor, yet the combined total is approximately $87,000. Some categories of expense that experienced some sizable increases were loan interest in the amount of $29,200, training expense in the amount of $64,000 to name two of the significant accounts.

 

At this time, our operating structure and current level of expense can handle several times more revenue with minor increases to our operating overhead expenses. This allows the entire gross profit of any new contract or company acquisition to go straight to the bottom line, providing a consistent return on investment. The Company does not currently have any agreements with potential acquisition targets.

 

Net (Loss) from Operations

 

Net loss in the first quarter of 2023 was approximately $442,996. An increase over the loss in 2022 of approximately $299,571. As previously mentioned, our operational structure that drives these costs has excess capacity in anticipation of significant growth via new contracts or more specifically, company acquisitions. This allows additional revenue to go directly to our bottom line (see moving forward comments).

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company’s principal sources of liquidity include cash from operations and proceeds from long-term debt financing. During the three months ending March 31, 2023, operations generated a net decrease in cash of approximately $443,000 while cash used from general operations was approximately $340,000. The majority of the operational cash used was due to an increase in accounts receivable of approximately $138,000 and payments to pension liabilities of approximately $172,000. The net decrease in cash for the period was approximately $783,000.

 

On March 31, 2023, the Company had cash on hand of $444,337, with total current assets of $2,618,553.

Moving Forward

 

During the past twenty-one months we have been working to get to where we are today. It has been difficult and expensive to get to this point of being a public company with the corporate structure, systems and team that can expand our business with increasing profitability. Our current overhead expense structure has the capacity to manage two to three times the revenues from one of two strategic sources.

 

Our first source is to continue down our historical path of seeking out contracts that meet our sweet spot and bidding with hope of successful award. However, this path is time consuming and isn’t a guarantee of the growth we desire and is outside of our control.

 

Our second source of growth is merger and acquisition. While the Company does not currently have any agreements with potential acquisition targets, we now have the capital market available to us and our industry is positioned for long term growth, now is the time. The security industry continues to grow in opportunity, and at the same there’s a lot of consolidation occurring. We plan to be a company acquiring others and quickly doubling our revenues with one or two key acquisitions. After which we could see all the gross profit from those companies going directly to our bottom line.

 

There are also potential acquisition opportunities in several other industries that could fit our business model. Those include transportation, cyber security, private security, ammunition manufacturing, and surveillance. The Company does not currently have any agreements with potential acquisition targets.

 

Management is very positive regarding profitable operations for the next twelve months based on the following:

 

  AGSS operates in a growing industry.

 

  The security industry is recession proof.

 

  There are over 10,000 security companies operating in our market, with 50% available for acquisition.

 

  Our management team, Board of Directors and supporting equity professionals can get the job done.

 

  We have been and will continue to be a company that is very conservative with our resources and will use every possible dollar provide strength and good return to our investors.

 

  We are in it for the long haul.

 

  We make profits the old fashion way, hard work.

 

Management Discussion of Strategic Plans

 

On December 9, 2022, AGSS acquired AmeriGuard via a stock exchange. After which, AmeriGuard became the 100% subsidiary of AGSS resulting in the consolidated annual revenue of AGSS exceeding $22 million. We hope to achieve material growth following a very simple menu:

 

  Aggressive bidding on new and current Federal Guard Contracts.

 

  Meet the growing needs in the Commercial Guard services.

 

  Acquisitions of Federal Contracting competitors, specifically those with high level secret security clearance.

 

  Acquisition of businesses operating in the governmental contracting market which may achieve greater margins such as the transportation industry and technology, specifically cyber-security and related IT services.

 

26

 

 

Government Contracts

 

We intend to continue to take advantage of our federal contracting bidding category of a veteran owned, minority owned, small business (initially) narrowing the field of competition for each contract. The small business category is defined as average sales over 5 years at or below $25.5 million. We project that we will remain below that level for the next two calendar years. Another category that increases contracting opportunities is the much-coveted position of having high level secret clearance. We have held this clearance in the past and are actively seeking to gain such clearance again.

 

With over 20 years of experience with government contracts providing significant understanding of the bidding process along with a team of 5 individuals processing contract bids, we are confident of being awarded two or three new contracts in the next eighteen months.

 

As previously mentioned in the industry discussion, the industry is going through a merger and acquisition phase driven by the need to consolidate overhead and a significant percentage of owner retirements. One key reason for the creation of this public company is to gain the significant capital necessary to acquire two or three companies already in the governmental contract market.

 

Commercial Guard Services

 

With the increasing crime rates in most major cities across the country the gap between what the business owners expect from law enforcement and what law enforcement can deliver is widening. A specific concern is the amount of time it takes from the moment an alarm is triggered and the arrival of an officer. This can be multiple hours and sometimes not at all for local police departments. The time gap as described could mean the difference between a broken window to a multi thousand-dollar loss.

 

It is a part of our regular service to dispatch an armed officer to respond quickly to the alarm, secure the scene and await law enforcement or the business owner. We believe that this quick response ensures a higher level of security for our customers. We provide the complete package of alarms, video cameras to armed response. This complete vertical can be duplicated in any town USA. It is true that other guard companies do provide armed response, yet not many also have surveillance systems under their operational control and monitored with local dispatch as we do.

 

Our strategy is to acquire commercial guard companies in the states where we have federal contracts allowing us to establish a kind of farm system for guards who can start at a no experience entry position, receive experience and training to ultimately be employed at the high value level of unionized federal guard. Like many industries, it is extremely difficult to find and keep the employees needed for our federal contracts. This negatively impacts the bottom-line success of a contract due to extra overtime not anticipated. A program like this will allow individuals to start and build a career, not just a job.

 

Other Business Acquisitions

 

AGSS will look to identify a few potential Cyber Security/IT companies that could be acquired. We see the acquisition of a quality Cyber Security company and an important aspect of our strategic plan. The Executive Team will identify potential acquisitions with great urgency. The Company does not currently have any agreements with potential acquisition targets.

 

Implementation and Timeline

 

For the acquisitions we will identify target companies that meets the specific strategic and financial criteria established by the board, and then seek the necessary capital. The acquisition offer will include both cash and AGSS stock.

 

The criteria that management is currently using to identify acquisition target are:

 

  1. Currently holding governmental contracts in good standing and/or with solid commercial operations.

 

27

 

 

  2. Companies in related industries provide significant value to our company’s bottom line.

 

  3. A minimum of a 10% EBTIDA (non-guard companies), and guard companies with the majority of revenues from government contracts with an EBTIDA of 2.5+%.

 

  4. Consolidation savings will bring EBTIDA to 15% (non-guard companies), and 8-10% for guard companies.

 

  5. Monthly revenues exceeding $500,000.

 

  6. Has a clear path for revenue growth.

 

  7. If the company does not meet the criteria in 1-6. It needs to demonstrate an ability to grow 10% per year or more and bring positive cash flow to the company.

 

For new government contracts, this approach is a bit more time-consuming and competitive. Preparing proposals for the contracts that become available is not the problem, the time aspect is the dates the contracts are awarded.

 

The capital required component of these contracts is twofold. First, the contract often requires new equipment and vehicles. Second, the bidding company must have enough working capital to cover the first three months of payroll. With payroll cost being 80% of the contract and various equipment requirements, the required capital on hand can be significant. For a contract that has $15 million per year in revenue the capital on hand requirement would exceed $3,000,000.

 

The following is a description of the assumptions made for each quarter of operation.

 

Third quarter of operation, July – September 30, 2023

 

During this quarter our focus will be acquiring a guard company of a large enough size to have annual sales over $10 million, with the hopes of providing additional cash from operations at 6% of annual sales. Management is confident they will be able to find a few companies that meet our acquisition requirements.

 

At this point AGSS should have a complete Executive Team, full Board of Directors, processes and procedures in place and will be aggressively working to achieve our goal of $100 million in annual sales.

 

As previously indicated it is anticipated that AGSS will acquire additional Security Companies competing with AGSS in the government contracting market, along with companies that meet the acquisition criteria previously mentioned, from June 2023 through the end of the year. The previous comments and timeline reflect management’s expectations that are achievable and are at the minimum of management’s intentions. Based on market activities and investor readiness, the pace of acquisitions and contract awards could accelerate.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These principles require us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, cash flow and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Our estimates include those related to revenue recognition, accounts receivable reserves, income and other taxes, stock-based compensation and equipment and contingent obligations. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and our actual results, our future financial statements will be affected.

 

We define our “critical accounting policies” as those U.S. generally accepted accounting principles that require us to make subjective estimates about matters that are uncertain and are likely to have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations as well as the specific way we apply those principles. Our estimates are based upon assumptions and judgments about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate is made and applied and require us to continually assess a range of potential outcomes. A detailed discussion of the critical accounting policies that most affect our company is in Footnote 2 of the notes to our financial statements.

Family Relationships

 

There are no family relationships among our executive officers and directors.

 

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

 

Our Board of Directors focuses on the most significant risks facing our company and our company’s general risk management strategy, and ensure that risks undertaken by our Company are consistent with the Board’s appetite for risk. While the Board oversees our company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our company and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.

 

Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

 

Under Nevada General Corporation Law and our articles of incorporation, our directors will have no personal liability to us or our stockholders for monetary damages incurred as the result of the breach or alleged breach by a director of his “duty of care.” This provision does not apply to the directors’ (i) acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing and culpable violation of law, (ii) acts or omissions that a director believes to be contrary to the best interests of the corporation or our shareholders or that involve the absence of good faith on the part of the director, (iii) approval of any transaction from which a director derives an improper personal benefit, (iv) acts or omissions that show a reckless disregard for the director’s duty to the corporation or our shareholders in circumstances in which the director was aware, or should have been aware, in the ordinary course of performing a director’s duties, of a risk of serious injury to the corporation or our shareholders, (v) acts or omissions that constituted an unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to an abdication of the director’s duty to the corporation or our shareholders, or (vi) approval of an unlawful dividend, distribution, stock repurchase or redemption. This provision would generally absolve directors of personal liability for negligence in the performance of duties, including gross negligence.

 

The effect of this provision in our articles of incorporation is to eliminate the rights of the Company and our stockholders (through stockholder’s derivative suits on behalf of the Company to recover monetary damages against a director for breach of his fiduciary duty of care as a director (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior) except in the situations described in clauses (i) through (vi) above. This provision does not limit nor eliminate the rights of the Company or any stockholder to seek non-monetary relief such as an injunction or rescission in the event of a breach of a director’s duty of care. In addition, our Articles of Incorporation provide that if Nevada law is amended to authorize the future elimination or limitation of the liability of a director, then the liability of the directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the law, as amended. Nevada General Corporation Law grants corporations the right to indemnify their directors, officers, employees and agents in accordance with applicable law. Our bylaws provide for indemnification of such persons to the full extent allowable under applicable law. These provisions will not alter the liability of the directors under federal securities laws.

 

34

 

 

We intend to enter into agreements to indemnify our directors and officers, in addition to the indemnification provided for in our bylaws. These agreements, among other things, indemnify our directors and officers for certain expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and settlement amounts incurred by any such person in any action or proceeding, including any action by or in the right of the Company, arising out of such person’s services as a director or officer of the Company, any subsidiary of the Company or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the request of the Company. We believe that these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified directors and officers.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

On July 7, 2022, the Ameriguard entered into a buyout agreement with its minority shareholder Lillian Flores. The value of Ameriguard to be used for the buyout agreement was calculated using an independent evaluation service which determined the December 31, 2020 value to be approximately $6,400,000. As a 45% owner, Mrs. Flores’ share was approximately $2,885,000. After negotiation of some additional funds due Mrs. Flores, the final buyout amount was approximately $3,385,000. A 5-year promissory note was executed and the note is secured by a stock pledge.

 

As part of the executed agreement the first payment of $676,990 was issued July 12, 2022. The agreement stipulates 4 additional payments of $739,508, principal and interest, starting December 31, 2023, with final payment made December 31, 2026.

 

Director Independence

 

Lawrence Garcia, CEO and majority Shareholder is our only non-independent director.

 

Because our common stock is not currently listed on a national securities exchange, we have used the definition of “independence” of The NASDAQ Stock Market to make this determination. NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) provides that an “independent director” is a person other than an officer or employee of the company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the company’s board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The NASDAQ listing rules provide that a director cannot be considered independent if:

 

  the director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an employee of the Company;
     
  the director or a family member of the director accepted any compensation from the Company in excess of $120,000 during any period of 12 consecutive months within the three years preceding the independence determination (subject to certain exclusions, including, among other things, compensation for board or board committee service);
     
  a family member of the director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an executive officer of the Company;
     
  the director or a family member of the director is a partner in, controlling stockholder of, or an executive officer of an entity to which the Company made, or from which the Company received, payments in the current or any of the past three fiscal years that exceed 5% of the recipient’s consolidated gross revenue for that year or $200,000, whichever is greater (subject to certain exclusions);
     
  the director or a family member of the director is employed as an executive officer of an entity where, at any time during the past three years, any of the executive officers of the Company served on the compensation committee of such other entity; or
     
  the director or a family member of the director is a current partner of the Company’s outside auditor, or at any time during the past three years was a partner or employee of the Company’s outside auditor, and who worked on the company’s audit.

  had any bankruptcy petition filed by or against the business or property of the person, or of any partnership, corporation or business association of which he was a general partner or executive officer, either at the time of the bankruptcy filing or within two years prior to that time;

 

  been found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated;

 

  been the subject of, or a party to, any federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated (not including any settlement of a civil proceeding among private litigants), relating to an alleged violation of any federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation, any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order, or any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15I and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective such that the information relating to us required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company’s former management abandoned all operations for many years, and only recently did the Company appoint new management to make filings with the SEC on behalf of the Company. As of December 31, 2022 we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

 

The framework our management uses to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting is based on the guidance provided by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission in its 1992 report: INTERNAL CONTROL - INTEGRATED FRAMEWORK. Based on our evaluation under the framework described above, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2022 due to the same material weaknesses that rendered our disclosure controls and procedures ineffective. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is not effective due to a lack of sufficient resources to hire a support staff in order to separate duties between different individuals. The Company lacks the appropriate personnel to handle all the varying recording and reporting tasks on a timely basis. The Company plans to address these material weaknesses as resources become available by hiring additional professional staff, such as a Chief Financial Officer, as funding becomes available, outsourcing certain aspects of the recording and reporting functions, and separating responsibilities. We have identified the following material weaknesses.

 

1.As of December 31, 2022, we did not maintain effective controls over the control environment. Specifically, we have not developed and effectively communicated to our employees the accounting policies and procedures. This has resulted in inconsistent practices. Further, the Board of Directors does not currently have any independent members and no director qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. Since these entity level programs have a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that these circumstances constitute a material weakness.

 

2.As of December 31, 2022, we did not maintain effective controls over financial statement disclosure. Specifically, controls were not designed and in place to ensure that all disclosures required were originally addressed in our financial statements. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.

 

Because of these material weaknesses, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on the criteria established in “INTERNAL CONTROL-INTEGRATED FRAMEWORK” issued by the COSO. Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth above did not have an effect on our financial results because the activity during this period was nominal. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of a majority of outside Directors on our Board of Directors results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods. Management to further recruit qualified individuals, establish an audit committee, appoint independent directors, and ensure that board members have current and pertinent financial experience.

 

Change In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal year that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Penny Stock Considerations

 

Our common stock will be deemed to be “penny stock” as that term is generally defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to mean equity securities with a price of less than $5.00. Our shares thus will be subject to rules that impose sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who engage in certain transactions involving a penny stock.

 

Under the penny stock regulations, a broker-dealer selling a penny stock to anyone other than an established customer or accredited investor must make a special suitability determination regarding the purchaser and must receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale, unless the broker-dealer is otherwise exempt. Generally, an individual with a net worth more than $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $100,000 individually or $300,000 together with his or her spouse is considered an accredited investor. In addition, under the penny stock regulations the broker-dealer is required to:

 

Deliver, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwise exempt.

 

Disclose commissions payable to the broker-dealer and our registered representatives and current bid and offer quotations for the securities.

 

Send monthly statements disclosing recent price information pertaining to the penny stock held in a customer’s account, the account’s value and information regarding the limited market in penny stocks; and

 

Make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction, prior to conducting any penny stock transaction in the customer’s account.

 

Because of these regulations, broker-dealers may encounter difficulties in their attempt to buy or sell shares of our common stock, which may affect the ability of Belair or other holders to sell their shares in the secondary market and have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market. These additional sales practice and disclosure requirements could impede the sale of our common stock even if our common stock becomes publicly traded. In addition, the liquidity for our common stock may be decreased, with a corresponding decrease in the price of our common stock. Our shares are likely to be subject to such penny stock rules for the foreseeable future.

 

Reports to Stockholders

 

We have filed all necessary periodic reports, and other information with the SEC. We have provided annual reports to our stockholders containing audited financial statements.

Our Bylaws, subject to the provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes, contain provisions which allow the Company to indemnify any person against liabilities and other expenses incurred as the result of defending or administering any pending or anticipated legal issue in connection with service to us if it is determined that person acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed was in or not opposed to the best interest of the Company. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the shareholders and the board of directors of Ameriguard Security Services, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Ameriguard Security Services, Inc. as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (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, 2022 and 2021, 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.

 

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 audit. 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 audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit 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 audit 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 audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Critical Audit Matter

 

Critical audit matters 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.

 

We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

AmeriGuard Security Services, Inc. (the Company), was incorporated on November 14, 2002, with an S-Corp tax election. The corporation was incorporated with the issuance of 1,000 shares of no-par value stock held by Lawrence Garcia, President and CEO with 550 shares and Lillian Flores, VP of Operations with 450 shares. The Company provides armed guard services as a federal contractor with licenses in 5 states and provides commercial guard services in California.

 

On July 7, 2021, the Company, entered into an agreement to gain 100% control of Health Revenue Assurance Holdings, Inc (HRAA) a public corporation, incorporated in Nevada, by the purchase of 10,000,000 shares of Preferred A-1 Stock from the seller, Custodian Ventures LLC. The purchase of HRAA allowed the Company to begin plans to consummate a reverse merger with HRAA becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of a public company. In March of 2022, a Certificate of Amendment was filed with the Nevada Secretary of State, changing the name of HRAA, to Ameriguard Security Services, Inc. (AGSS). Shortly thereafter, a stock name and ticker change report was filed with the SEC and the stock ticker of HRAA was changed to AGSS.

 

On December 9, 2022, the Company executed the reverse merger agreement and became the subsidiary of AGSS. From that point forward, the financial statement filings will be the consolidation of Ameriguard Security Services, Inc, a Nevada company with Ameriguard Security Services, Inc. a California company.

 

The Company’s accounting year end is December 31.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

These financial statements are presented in United States dollars and have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The risks and uncertainties described below may not be the only ones we are or may face in the future. If any of the following do occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

 

The company receives over 90% of its total revenue from four Federal contracts as described in Note 9 below. These contracts have specific terms, typically five years with the opportunity for extension, but there are no assurances they will be extended. Although we have had several extended in the past, there is no guarantee this will again happened in the future. However, there are significant direct expenses for each contract that also are removed from operations at the end of a contract. As a result, the revenue lost from a completed contract does not affect the bottom-line profits in an amount equal to the revenue lost. The actual net income impact depends on the contract.

 

The process required to acquire a government contract takes several months to complete prior to delivery of the proposal to the contracting agency. Due to the time span required to prepare a proposal and wining the contract is not guaranteed, the company maintains a department of individuals who monitor and write proposals for all government contracts that become open for bid on a continuing basis. It is important to the company that new contracts are acquired consistently to maintain and grow annual revenue.

 

Other risks to operations consist of State and Federal regulations, accelerating inflation, and overall business environment issues we cannot foresee.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Use of Estimates

 

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include estimated useful lives and potential impairment of property and equipment, along with the collectability of some receivables from customers.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. On December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $1,227,654 and $2,129,801 respectively.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

We record accounts receivable at net realizable value. This value includes an appropriate allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts to reflect any loss anticipated on the accounts receivable balances and is charged to other bad debt expense. We calculate this allowance based on our history of write-offs, the level of past-due accounts based on the contractual terms of the receivables, and our relationships with, and the economic status of, our customers. With over ninety percent of year end accounts receivable balance from Federal contracts that require payment, and the uncollectable amount historically has been less than 1%. As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, an allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts was determined to be unnecessary.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment is retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes. The Company uses other depreciation methods (generally accelerated) for tax purposes where appropriate. The estimated useful life for Machinery and Equipment, and Vehicles is 5 years, with Leasehold improvements useful life is 10 Years.

 

Operating Leases

 

In February 2016, FASB ASU No. 2016-02 established ASC Topic 842, Leases, which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. Effective December 31, 2022, we have implemented ASU No. 2016-02 and booked the operating lease asset and the related liability.

 

We have leased vehicles that are classified as operating leases per the guidelines. The Balance Sheet & the Statement of Cash Flows reflects the implementation of this guideline. The Balance Sheet reflects the asset and liability of the operating leases. The Statement of Cash Flows reflects the implementation of this guideline as transactions that affected cash flow and non-cash financing activities. The change in the operating lease liability of ($79,358) is the difference of the total liability of our lease ($373,745) from the total liability balance of ($294,387) as of December 31,2022. The ($79,358) change in the operating lease liability consists of the total lease payments made for the year. The change in operating lease asset of $71,049 is the net of the total asset of the leases ($373,745) and the remaining asset balance of $302,695 as of December 31, 2022. The $71,049 is the amortization of the lease for the year.

 

F-8

 

 

Net Income/(Loss) per Share

 

Net income/(loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period as defined by Financial Accounting Standards, ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share”. Basic earnings/(loss) per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income/(loss) 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.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue when the Invoice for contracted services is issued as stipulated by the contract. Other services provided are recognized at the time the service is provided. Ninety eight percent of revenues are billed monthly and recognized in the month the services were provided. Refunds and returns, which are minimal, are recorded as a reduction of revenue. The Company has not recorded a reserve for returns on December 31, 2022, or 2021 since it does not believe such returns will be material.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company applies the accounting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements”, as well as certain related FASB staff positions. This guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact business and considers assumptions that marketplace participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance.

 

The guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy for measurements of fair value as follows:

 

  Level 1 - quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
     
  Level 2 - inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
     
 

Level 3 - unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments approximates their fair value as of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022, due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

NOTE 3 – RELATED PARTY RECEIVABLE

 

On July 7, 2021, the company has entered into an agreement to purchase 100% of the Preferred A-1 Stock of Health Revenue Assurance Holdings, Inc. a SEC registered company for $500,000. In March 2022, Health Revenue Assurance Holdings, Inc. name was changed to Ameriguard Security Services Inc. (AGSS). On December 9, 2022, we signed the definitive merger agreement initiating a reverse merger with AGSS, resulting in the Company becoming a 100% owned subsidiary of AGSS. Prior to the merger, the Company funded the operational expenses of AGSS and treated these expenses as related party expenses. These expenses we eliminated when the two companies were consolidated for the financial statement presentation.

 

The receivable balances on December 31, 2022, and 2021 were $57,971 and $10,596 respectively. Balances adjusted to zero as a result of consolidation.

NOTE 7 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

On December 9, 2022, the Company executed a reverse merger agreement with AGSS resulting in significant adjustments to the equity section of both companies. The result of the merger was AGSS became the sole owner of the Company. Although the merger is dated December 9, 2022, for financial statement presentation purposes, we have presented the Equity Section as if the merger occurred in 2021.

 

The first significant impact on stockholders’ equity was the issuance of 90,000,000 AGSS shares to the shareholders of Ameriguard Security Services, Inc (the Company) in exchange for 1000 shares of the Company, adding a net increase in common shares outstanding of 89,999,000. Next was the cancelation and conversion of series 675,000 A-1 preferred shares held by AGSS on December 31, 2020. The final result in the total number of shares outstanding is 93,417,302.

 

The next part of stockholder’s equity impacted was Additional Paid-in Capital. The impact was a reduction of Paid-in Capital of $579,000. This reduction was caused by an $89,999 impact of issuing new shares, a $10,000 impact form the cancelation of preferred shares and finally the $500,000 cost of the Company’s purchase of AGSS, formally Heath Revenue Assurance Holdings, Inc.

 

There were two other transactions that impacted stockholders’ equity that occurred to the Company’s equity section relating to owner draws and the merger with a related company. As a part of the normal activity of the privately held Company, an S-Corp, shareholders were distributed funds accounted for as Owner Draws. The owner draw accounts were used primarily for taxes paid by the shareholders due to profits of the S-Corp being transferred to their personal returns along with some personal expenses and personal cash needs. For 2021, there was approximately $105,000 posted as Owner draw from historical balances of related party receivables. As part of the preparation for merger these inter-company balances were removed through the owner draw accounts. Total owner draw amounts were $473,238 and $62,824 for December 31, 2022, and 2021 respectively.

 

NOTE 8 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

The company has a multiple vehicle lease agreement with Enterprise Leasing. As of December 31, 2022, the company had 19 vehicles under lease. The lease agreement includes maintenance services along physical damage insurance. The term of the lease agreement varies based on the date vehicle were leased and the respective terms for each vehicle. The master lease is updated annually and requires annual internal financial reports and company tax return.

 

NOTE 9 – CONCENTRATION OF SALES

 

The company generated approximately $24,600,000 and $22,100.000 in guard service revenue for the years 2022 and 2021 respectively. Of the total guard service revenue, approximately 87% was earned from four federal contracts operated by the company. The contracts and their respective terms are as follows:

 

  Social Security Administration, NSC   -

September 2022 through September 2027

Annual Revenue of approx. $3.145M

           
  Social security Administration, SSC   -

June 2022 through June 2027

Annual Revenue of approx. $4.932M

           
  Social Security Administration, WBDOC   -

June 2021 through July 2026

Annual Revenue of approx. $5.838M

           
  National Institute of Health- EPA   -

May 2020 through March 2025

Annual Revenue of approx. $7.514M

 

F-11

 

 

NOTE 10 – LITIGATION AND CLAIMS

 

As of December 31, 2022, there was one employment issue pending. The issue involves a terminated employee alleging discrimination and wrongful termination. A lawsuit has not been filed only a demand letter has been presented. Management has been working with the attorneys to find a reasonable settlement to this dispute without going to trial. After several months of discussion and negotiation it appears that the complaint will be settled for $23,000. It is anticipated that an agreement may be reached by the end of March 2023.

 

Per Attorney letters received there are no other pending cases or legal matters.

 

NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES

 

Prior to the merger the Company had elected, with the consent of its stockholders, to be treated as an S Corporation under the Internal Revenue Code. In lieu of corporate income taxes, the stockholders of an S Corporation are taxed on their proportionate share of the Company’s income. As a result of the merger on December 9, 2022, the S Corporation status ends, and the consolidated 2022 tax return will be filed as a standard corporation. However, due to the losses incurred during the tax year ending 2022, there will be no tax liability for 2022.

NOTE 12 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On March 22, 2023, The Company was notified by the Contracting Officer of National Institute of Health-EPA our contract with them was not continuing and they were invoking the 45 days cancelation clause in the contract. As a result, the company will transition the closure of the contract on or about April 30, 2023. This will reduce on our annual revenue in the amount of approximately $5,122,000 in 2023, along with direct expenses that will be reduced by $4,650,000.

 

On March 23, 2023, the board of directors approved the purchase of TransportUS, Inc. While the Company explored the purchase of TransportUS, Inc., owned by Lawrence Garcia, the board of directors has determined, following due diligence, that the financial statements of TransportUS, Inc. are not in a form that can be audited under US GAAP. We have therefore abandoned such undertaking for the foreseeable future.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

AmeriGuard Security Services, Inc. (the Company), was incorporated on November 14, 2002, with an S-Corp tax election. The corporation was incorporated with the issuance of 1,000 shares of no-par value stock held by Lawrence Garcia, President and CEO with 550 shares and Lillian Flores, VP of Operations with 450 shares. The Company provides armed guard services as a federal contractor with licenses in 5 states and provides commercial guard services in California.

 

On July 7, 2021, the Company, entered into an agreement to gain 100% control of Health Revenue Assurance Holdings, Inc (HRAA) a public corporation, incorporated in Nevada, by the purchase of 10,000,000 shares of Preferred A-1 Stock from the seller, Custodian Ventures LLC. The purchase of HRAA allowed the Company to begin plans to consummate a reverse merger with HRAA becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of a public company. In March of 2022, a Certificate of Amendment was filed with the Nevada Secretary of State, changing the name of HRAA, to Ameriguard Security Services, Inc. (AGSS). Shortly thereafter, a stock name and ticker change report was filed with the SEC and the stock ticker of HRAA was changed to AGSS.

 

On December 9, 2022, the Company executed the reverse merger agreement and became the subsidiary of AGSS. From that point forward, the financial statement filings will be the consolidation of Ameriguard Security Services, Inc, a Nevada company with Ameriguard Security Services, Inc. a California company.

 

The Company’s accounting year end is December 31.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

These financial statements are presented in United States dollars and have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The risks and uncertainties described below may not be the only ones we are or may face in the future. If any of the following do occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

 

The company receives over 90% of its total revenue from four Federal contracts as described in Note 9 below. These contracts have specific terms, typically five years with the opportunity for extension, but there are no assurances they will be extended. Although we have had several extended in the past, there is no guarantee this will again happened in the future. However, there are significant direct expenses for each contract that also are removed from operations at the end of a contract. As a result, the revenue lost from a completed contract does not affect the bottom-line profits in an amount equal to the revenue lost. The actual net income impact depends on the contract.

 

The process required to acquire a government contract takes several months to complete prior to delivery of the proposal to the contracting agency. Due to the time span required to prepare a proposal and wining the contract is not guaranteed, the company maintains a department of individuals who monitor and write proposals for all government contracts that become open for bid on a continuing basis. It is important to the company that new contracts are acquired consistently to maintain and grow annual revenue.

 

Other risks to operations consist of State and Federal regulations, staffing shortages, accelerating inflation, and overall business environment issues we cannot foresee.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Use of Estimates

 

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include estimated useful lives and potential impairment of property and equipment, along with the collectability of some receivables from customers.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. On March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $444,879 and $1,227,654 respectively.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

We record accounts receivable at net realizable value. This value includes an appropriate allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts to reflect any loss anticipated on the accounts receivable balances and is charged to other bad debt expense. We calculate this allowance based on our history of write-offs, the level of past-due accounts based on the contractual terms of the receivables, and our relationships with, and the economic status of, our customers. With over ninety percent of year end accounts receivable balance from Federal contracts that require payment, and the uncollectable amount historically has been less than 1%. As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, an allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts was determined to be unnecessary.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment is retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes. The Company uses other depreciation methods (generally accelerated) for tax purposes where appropriate. The estimated useful life for Machinery and Equipment, and Vehicles is 5 years, with Leasehold improvements useful life is 10 Years.

 

Operating Leases

 

In February 2016, FASB ASU No. 2016-02 established ASC Topic 842, Leases, which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. Effective December 31, 2022, we have implemented ASU No. 2016-02 and booked the operating lease asset and the related liability.

 

Net Income/(Loss) per Share

 

Net income/(loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period as defined by Financial Accounting Standards, ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share”. Basic earnings/(loss) per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income/(loss) 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.

 

F-18

 

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue when the Invoice for contracted services is issued as stipulated by the contract. Other services provided are recognized at the time the service is provided. Ninety eight percent of revenues are billed monthly and recognized in the month the services were provided. Refunds and returns, which are minimal, are recorded as a reduction of revenue. The Company has not recorded a reserve for returns on March 31, 2023, or 2022 since it does not believe such returns will be material.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company applies the accounting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements”, as well as certain related FASB staff positions. This guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact business and considers assumptions that marketplace participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of non-performance.

 

The guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy for measurements of fair value as follows:

 

  Level 1 - quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
     
  Level 2 - inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
     
  Level 3 - unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments approximates their fair value as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

NOTE 3 – RELATED PARTY RECEIVABLE

 

On July 7, 2021, the company has entered into an agreement to purchase 100% of the Preferred A-1 Stock of Health Revenue Assurance Holdings, Inc. a SEC registered company for $500,000. In March 2022, Health Revenue Assurance Holdings, Inc. name was changed to Ameriguard Security Services Inc. (AGSS). On December 9, 2022, we signed the definitive merger agreement initiating a reverse merger with AGSS, resulting in the Company becoming a 100% owned subsidiary of AGSS. Prior to the merger, the Company funded the operational expenses of AGSS and treated these expenses as related party expenses. These expenses we eliminated when the two companies were consolidated for the financial statement presentation.

 

The receivable balances on March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, were $57,971. Related party receivables are eliminated upon consolidation.

ITEM 17UNDERTAKINGS

 

UNDERTAKINGS

 

The Registrant undertakes:

 

1. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

The Registrant is registering securities under Rule 415 of the Securities Act and hereby undertakes:

 

1. To file, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:

 

(i) Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

 

(ii) Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement; and notwithstanding the forgoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospects filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in the volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.

 

(iii) Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution.

 

2. That, for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

3. To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

II-3

 

 

4. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:

 

A. For determining liability of the undersigned issuer under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned issuer undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned issuer pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned issuer will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

i. Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned issuer relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

 

ii. Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned issuer or used or referred to by the undersigned issuer;
   
iii. The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned issuer or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned issuer; and

 

iv. Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned issuer to the purchaser.

 

B. That for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:

 

Each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

“Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.”

 

In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the issuer of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the issuer in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the issuer will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

AmeriGuard Security Services, Inc. (the Company), was incorporated on November 14, 2002, with an S-Corp tax election. The corporation was incorporated with the issuance of 1,000 shares of no-par value stock held by Lawrence Garcia, President and CEO with 550 shares and Lillian Flores, VP of Operations with 450 shares. The Company provides armed guard services as a federal contractor with licenses in 5 states and provides commercial guard services in California.

 

On July 7, 2021, the Company, entered into an agreement to gain 100% control of Health Revenue Assurance Holdings, Inc (HRAA) a public corporation, incorporated in Nevada, by the purchase of 10,000,000 shares of Preferred A-1 Stock from the seller, Custodian Ventures LLC. The purchase of HRAA allowed the Company to begin plans to consummate a reverse merger with HRAA becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of a public company. In March of 2022, a Certificate of Amendment was filed with the Nevada Secretary of State, changing the name of HRAA, to Ameriguard Security Services, Inc. (AGSS). Shortly thereafter, a stock name and ticker change report was filed with the SEC and the stock ticker of HRAA was changed to AGSS.

 

On December 9, 2022, the Company executed the reverse merger agreement and became the subsidiary of AGSS. From that point forward, the financial statement filings will be the consolidation of Ameriguard Security Services, Inc, a Nevada company with Ameriguard Security Services, Inc. a California company.

 

The Company’s accounting year end is December 31.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

These financial statements are presented in United States dollars and have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The risks and uncertainties described below may not be the only ones we are or may face in the future. If any of the following do occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

 

The company receives over 90% of its total revenue from four Federal contracts as described in Note 9 below. These contracts have specific terms, typically five years with the opportunity for extension, but there are no assurances they will be extended. Although we have had several extended in the past, there is no guarantee this will again happened in the future. However, there are significant direct expenses for each contract that also are removed from operations at the end of a contract. As a result, the revenue lost from a completed contract does not affect the bottom-line profits in an amount equal to the revenue lost. The actual net income impact depends on the contract.

 

The process required to acquire a government contract takes several months to complete prior to delivery of the proposal to the contracting agency. Due to the time span required to prepare a proposal and wining the contract is not guaranteed, the company maintains a department of individuals who monitor and write proposals for all government contracts that become open for bid on a continuing basis. It is important to the company that new contracts are acquired consistently to maintain and grow annual revenue.

 

Other risks to operations consist of State and Federal regulations, staffing shortages, accelerating inflation, and overall business environment issues we cannot foresee.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]    
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Use of Estimates

 

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include estimated useful lives and potential impairment of property and equipment, along with the collectability of some receivables from customers.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. On March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $444,879 and $1,227,654 respectively.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

We record accounts receivable at net realizable value. This value includes an appropriate allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts to reflect any loss anticipated on the accounts receivable balances and is charged to other bad debt expense. We calculate this allowance based on our history of write-offs, the level of past-due accounts based on the contractual terms of the receivables, and our relationships with, and the economic status of, our customers. With over ninety percent of year end accounts receivable balance from Federal contracts that require payment, and the uncollectable amount historically has been less than 1%. As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, an allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts was determined to be unnecessary.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment is retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes. The Company uses other depreciation methods (generally accelerated) for tax purposes where appropriate. The estimated useful life for Machinery and Equipment, and Vehicles is 5 years, with Leasehold improvements useful life is 10 Years.

 

Operating Leases

 

In February 2016, FASB ASU No. 2016-02 established ASC Topic 842, Leases, which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. Effective December 31, 2022, we have implemented ASU No. 2016-02 and booked the operating lease asset and the related liability.

 

Net Income/(Loss) per Share

 

Net income/(loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period as defined by Financial Accounting Standards, ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share”. Basic earnings/(loss) per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income/(loss) 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.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue when the Invoice for contracted services is issued as stipulated by the contract. Other services provided are recognized at the time the service is provided. Ninety eight percent of revenues are billed monthly and recognized in the month the services were provided. Refunds and returns, which are minimal, are recorded as a reduction of revenue. The Company has not recorded a reserve for returns on March 31, 2023, or 2022 since it does not believe such returns will be material.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company applies the accounting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements”, as well as certain related FASB staff positions. This guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact business and considers assumptions that marketplace participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of non-performance.

 

The guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy for measurements of fair value as follows:

 

  Level 1 - quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
     
  Level 2 - inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
     
  Level 3 - unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments approximates their fair value as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Effective December 31, 2022, we have implemented ASU No. 2016-02 and booked the operating lease asset and the related liability.

 

We have leased vehicles that are classified as operating leases per the guidelines. The Balance Sheet & the Statement of Cash Flows reflects the implementation of this guideline. The Balance Sheet reflects the asset and liability of the operating leases. The Statement of Cash Flows reflects the implementation of this guideline as transactions that affected cash flow and non-cash financing activities. The change in the operating lease liability of ($79,358) is the difference of the total liability of our lease ($373,745) from the total liability balance of ($294,387) as of December 31,2022. The ($79,358) change in the operating lease liability consists of the total lease payments made for the year. The change in operating lease asset of $71,049 is the net of the total asset of the leases ($373,745) and the remaining asset balance of $302,695 as of December 31, 2022. The $71,049 is the amortization of the lease for the year.

 

 

Net Income/(Loss) per Share

 

Net income/(loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period as defined by Financial Accounting Standards, ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share”. Basic earnings/(loss) per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income/(loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year.

STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

NOTE 7 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

From December 31, 2022, to March 31,2023 the only impact to equity was the net loss for the period of $442,996.

 

NOTE 7 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

On December 9, 2022, the Company executed a reverse merger agreement with AGSS resulting in significant adjustments to the equity section of both companies. The result of the merger was AGSS became the sole owner of the Company. Although the merger is dated December 9, 2022, for financial statement presentation purposes, we have presented the Equity Section as if the merger occurred in 2021.

 

The first significant impact on stockholders’ equity was the issuance of 90,000,000 AGSS shares to the shareholders of Ameriguard Security Services, Inc (the Company) in exchange for 1000 shares of the Company, adding a net increase in common shares outstanding of 89,999,000. Next was the cancelation and conversion of series 675,000 A-1 preferred shares held by AGSS on December 31, 2020. The final result in the total number of shares outstanding is 93,417,302.

 

The next part of stockholder’s equity impacted was Additional Paid-in Capital. The impact was a reduction of Paid-in Capital of $579,000. This reduction was caused by an $89,999 impact of issuing new shares, a $10,000 impact form the cancelation of preferred shares and finally the $500,000 cost of the Company’s purchase of AGSS, formally Heath Revenue Assurance Holdings, Inc.

 

There were two other transactions that impacted stockholders’ equity that occurred to the Company’s equity section relating to owner draws and the merger with a related company. As a part of the normal activity of the privately held Company, an S-Corp, shareholders were distributed funds accounted for as Owner Draws. The owner draw accounts were used primarily for taxes paid by the shareholders due to profits of the S-Corp being transferred to their personal returns along with some personal expenses and personal cash needs. For 2021, there was approximately $105,000 posted as Owner draw from historical balances of related party receivables. As part of the preparation for merger these inter-company balances were removed through the owner draw accounts. Total owner draw amounts were $473,238 and $62,824 for December 31, 2022, and 2021 respectively.

NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES

 

Prior to the merger the Company had elected, with the consent of its stockholders, to be treated as an S Corporation under the Internal Revenue Code. In lieu of corporate income taxes, the stockholders of an S Corporation are taxed on their proportionate share of the Company’s income. As a result of the merger on December 9, 2022, the S Corporation status ends, and the consolidated 2022 tax return will be filed as a standard corporation. However, due to the losses incurred during the tax year ending 2022, there will be no tax liability for 2022. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the accompanying financial statements.

NOTE 12 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On March 22, 2023, The Company was notified by the Contracting Officer of National Institute of Health-EPA our contract with them was not continuing and they were invoking the 45 days cancelation clause in the contract. As a result, the company will transition the closure of the contract on or about April 30, 2023. This will reduce on our annual revenue in the amount of approximately $5,122,000 in 2023, along with direct expenses that will be reduced by $4,650,000.

 

On March 23, 2023, the board of directors approved the purchase of TransportUS, Inc. While the Company explored the purchase of TransportUS, Inc., owned by Lawrence Garcia, the board of directors has determined, following due diligence, that the financial statements of TransportUS, Inc. are not in a form that can be audited under US GAAP. We have therefore abandoned such undertaking for the foreseeable future.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include estimated useful lives and potential impairment of property and equipment, along with the collectability of some receivables from customers.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts Receivable

 

We record accounts receivable at net realizable value. This value includes an appropriate allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts to reflect any loss anticipated on the accounts receivable balances and is charged to other bad debt expense. We calculate this allowance based on our history of write-offs, the level of past-due accounts based on the contractual terms of the receivables, and our relationships with, and the economic status of, our customers. With over ninety percent of year end accounts receivable balance from Federal contracts that require payment, and the uncollectable amount historically has been less than 1%. As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, an allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts was determined to be unnecessary.

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment is retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes. The Company uses other depreciation methods (generally accelerated) for tax purposes where appropriate. The estimated useful life for Machinery and Equipment, and Vehicles is 5 years, with Leasehold improvements useful life is 10 Years.

Operating Leases

Operating Leases

 

In February 2016, FASB ASU No. 2016-02 established ASC Topic 842, Leases, which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. Effective December 31, 2022, we have implemented ASU No. 2016-02 and booked the operating lease asset and the related liability.

Effective December 31, 2022, we have implemented ASU No. 2016-02 and booked the operating lease asset and the related liability.

 

We have leased vehicles that are classified as operating leases per the guidelines. The Balance Sheet & the Statement of Cash Flows reflects the implementation of this guideline. The Balance Sheet reflects the asset and liability of the operating leases. The Statement of Cash Flows reflects the implementation of this guideline as transactions that affected cash flow and non-cash financing activities. The change in the operating lease liability of ($79,358) is the difference of the total liability of our lease ($373,745) from the total liability balance of ($294,387) as of December 31,2022. The ($79,358) change in the operating lease liability consists of the total lease payments made for the year. The change in operating lease asset of $71,049 is the net of the total asset of the leases ($373,745) and the remaining asset balance of $302,695 as of December 31, 2022. The $71,049 is the amortization of the lease for the year.

 

Net Income/(Loss) per Share

Net Income/(Loss) per Share

 

Net income/(loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period as defined by Financial Accounting Standards, ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share”. Basic earnings/(loss) per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income/(loss) 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.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue when the Invoice for contracted services is issued as stipulated by the contract. Other services provided are recognized at the time the service is provided. Ninety eight percent of revenues are billed monthly and recognized in the month the services were provided. Refunds and returns, which are minimal, are recorded as a reduction of revenue. The Company has not recorded a reserve for returns on March 31, 2023, or 2022 since it does not believe such returns will be material.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company applies the accounting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements”, as well as certain related FASB staff positions. This guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact business and considers assumptions that marketplace participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of non-performance.

 

The guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy for measurements of fair value as follows:

 

  Level 1 - quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
     
  Level 2 - inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
     
  Level 3 - unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments approximates their fair value as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Subsequent Event, Description the board of directors approved the purchase of TransportUS, Inc. While the Company explored the purchase of TransportUS, Inc., owned by Lawrence Garcia, the board of directors has determined, following due diligence, that the financial statements of TransportUS, Inc. are not in a form that can be audited under US GAAP. We have therefore abandoned such undertaking for the foreseeable future.
