PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Company History
Health Revenue Assurance Holding, Inc. (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. Offering the 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 “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 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.
AmeriGuard Security Services, Inc. (“AmeriGuard”) was incorporated in California 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 the 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.
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. 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 all debts owed to him and/or Custodian Ventures, LLC.
On September 8, 2021, the Company accepted the resignation of 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. (AGSS) from Health Revenue Assurance Holdings, Inc. The name was deemed effective by FINRA on March 17, 2022.
1
On December 9, 2022, AGSS entered into the Merger Agreement. AmeriGuard became a wholly owned subsidiary of AGSS, and AGSS is the only shareholder and will continue in its existence with one owner, AGSS. Pursuant to the Share Exchange, (a) the Majority Shareholder relinquished all of his 573 AmeriGuard common shares and the Minority Shareholders relinquished all of their 67 AmeriGuard common shares, constituting all issued and outstanding shares of AmeriGuard (the “AmeriGuard Shares”), and were issued an aggregate of 80,578,125 and 9,421,875 respectively of AGSS common shares, representing 86.26% and 10.09% of the outstanding Common Stock of AGSS and (b) AmeriGuard returned the A-1 Preferred Stock of AGSS for retirement. After the issuance of the common shares, the existing 3,417,302 common shares represent 3.66% of the outstanding common stock of AGSS.
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”). Also, as part of the AGSS Merger, Ameriguard cancelled the 10,000,000 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock it had purchased from Custodian Ventures, LLC. 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 78.55% 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.
Pursuant to the terms of a settlement agreement, by and among Garcia, AmeriGuard, and Lillian Flores (“Flores”), dated July 7, 2022 (the “Settlement Agreement”), AmeriGuard repurchased the 450 common shares of Flores for a total consideration of $3,384,950 payable in five equal annual installments compounded semi-annually at a three percent rate. The initial payment on July 8, 2022, of $686,990 reduced the balance to $2,697,960. The second through fifth installment are due on December 31, 2023, through December 31, 2026. See Note 10 – Notes Payable to the 2025 financial statements.
Prior to Merger, under the terms of a stock pledge agreement, by and among Garcia, Flores and AmeriGuard, dated July 7, 2022, 360 AmeriGuard common shares remained held in AmeriGuard treasury pledged to Flores. On Merger these pledged shares were substituted with 50,625,000 AGSS common stock of the 80,578,125 issued to Lawrence Garcia. These pledged shares are redeemed and returned to Garcia based on a stock redemption agreement, by and among Garcia, Flores and AmeriGuard, dated July 7, 2022.
The purposes of the transactions described in this Current Report were to complete a business combination by a stock for stock merger and complete a recapitalization of the company with the result being that AmeriGuard became a wholly owned subsidiary of AGSS, and AmeriGuards management will be the management of AGSS.
There was no offering with this merger. Effective immediately after the Share Exchange, the stock transfer books of AmeriGuard shall be closed.
On October 20, 2023, the Company executed a share purchase agreement to acquire TransportUS Inc. TransportUS, Inc. was incorporated on October 24, 2018, with an S-Corp tax election. The corporation was incorporated with the issuance of 1,000 shares with no-par par value stock held by Lawrence Garcia, President and CEO. TransportUS Inc. provides human transportation services as a federal contractor, currently providing services in the state of California.
The purchase agreement was to issue 3,000,000 common shares to Lawrence Garcia in exchange for the 1,000 shares held from TransportUS, Inc. The agreement called for the immediate issuance of 1,500,000 shares when the agreement was executed with the remaining 1,500,000 shares to be issued contingent on TransportUS Inc., renewing its current transportation contract with the Veterans Administration in Long Beach California. See financial statement Note 16 for further information regarding the Veterans Administration Long Beach contract.

Overview
The Company manages two separate subsidiaries: Ameriguard Security Services, Inc. (“AGS”) and TransportUS, Inc. (“TUS”).
AGS principally provides guard services for Federal, State and Local governmental entities, quasi-governmental entities and for commercial property. Guard services generated approximately $10.4 million in revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. 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.
TUS provides ambulatory and non-ambulatory services for the Veterans Administration, in Long Beach CA, Central Los Angeles CA and Loma Linda CA. These three contracts generate approximately $12.6 million in revenues annually. TUS operates approximately 70 vehicles, a mixture of sedans, minivans, and full-size vans with wheelchair lifts, along with a dispatch service available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The Veterans Administration contracts are awarded to a related party company owned by Larence Garcia, AmeriGaurd Security Systems Inc, (SYS), a California Corporation. To date TUS has managed the contracts in full and received all revenues and paid all expenses.
As we continue to push growth organically as well as through acquisition, we will be able to realize a greater market share in each of these two industries.

Our Industries
Security
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. AGS revenue at approximately $10.4 million in annual revenue places it in the median spot in the industry.
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 between $10 million and $20 million, the remaining 9,900 firms, have experienced greater challenges to increase 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 than above $50 million in 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).
3
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 consolidation 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.

Non-Emergency Medical Transportation
The non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) industry is a fast-growing industry. A review of multiple publications available online indicates the North American market was approximately $6.4 billion in 2022 with a compound annual growth rate of between 7.5% and 9%. This provides TUS with a market of approximately $8.5 billion in 2026. As a relatively new company, it is positioned to grow rapidly in the governmental NEMT market and is focused on expanding its market share in southern CA.
TUS has an excellent reputation in the industry and will take advantage of this status as it bids on contracts moving forward. TUS will continue to focus on providing high quality service with our excellent staff and improving the quality of our fleet. Taking advantage of the capital markets available to AGSS, TUS will be able to enter more markets and be very competitive and profitable. TUS won two additional contracts with the Department of Veteran’s Administration in 2024.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
To our knowledge, during the past ten years, none of our directors, executive officers, promoters, control persons, or nominees has:
| ● | been convicted in a criminal proceeding or been subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses) |
| ● | 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; |

As of December 31, 2025, there are two employment issues pending. The issues revolve around terminated employees alleging the Company has failed to pay minimum wages, sick pay wages, meal period violations, rest period violations, wage statement violations and violation of the unfair business practices act, known as PAGA/Class Action suit. A PAGA/ Class Action suit was filed in 2024 against Ameriguard Security of California and Settled in March 2025 in the amount of $150,000. The settlement required a 10% initial payment and the balance due after the court approves the settlement. It is anticipated that the final ruling may occur in late 2026. Management expects to be able to negotiate a payment plan, if necessary, at that time. The second PAGA/Class Action suit was filed against TransportUS Inc. in 2025 and was settled in February 2026 in the amount of $150,000. The settlement, once approved by court requires payment eighteen months from settlement date.
The Wage and Hour Division of the U.S. Department of Labor (“DOL”) is conducting an investigation of the Company’s affiliate contractor’s inability to meet its payroll and other obligations under several contracts with the Social Security Administration. Correspondence from DOL, dated February 5, 2026, to the Department of Veterans Affairs, states the affiliate contractor failed to pay the required prevailing wage, fringe benefits, and overtime under the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act. The DOL correspondence further states that these alleged violations resulted in a total of $1,326,182.87 in back wages, and, of that amount, $356,741.06 in back wages remain outstanding. The February 5, 2026 DOL correspondence states that in accordance with Department of Labor Regulations, 29 CFR Part 4.187, and as provided for in 48 CFR, Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) Part 22.1022, the DOL requested that over the next six months, a total of $356,741.06 be withheld from contract payments due the affiliate contractor.
On March 27, 2026, Legalist Government Receivables Fund, LP, and Legalist SPV III, LP filed in the Supreme Court of New York (Index No. 651884/2026), a Notice of Motion for Summary Judgment in Lieu of Complaint for entry of judgment against the Company, Transportus,Inc., and Lawrence D. Garcia in the amount of $4,123,549,73, as well as attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses and further relief.

Corporate Structure
As previously mentioned, on December 9, 2022, AGSS executed a reverse merger with AmeriGuard (AGC) resulting in AGSS becoming the sole owner of AGC. This merger establishes AGSS as a company operating a viable guard company with annual sales of approximately $24,000,000. It also is in a position to access the capital market to generate the capital needed to begin its growth strategy of mergers and acquisitions within the security industry.
On October 20, 2023, the Company executed a share purchase agreement to acquire TransportUS Inc (TUS). This brings the second entity under the ownership and management of AGSS. TUS, adds an opportunity to increase revenues in the more profitable federal contracts requiring non-emergency medical transportation. As mentioned earlier, this industry is projected to grow at 9% year over year through 2032. The addition of TUS increased total revenue for 2024 to approximately $26,000,000.
AGSS continues developing the leadership team needed for success. We have in place a CEO with 22 years of experience in our industry and has been very successful in the government contracting market.

Results of Operations for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025
Revenues and Cost of Services
For 2025 the Company experienced a 11% overall decrease in operational revenue, totaling approximately $2,903,900. The decrease results from AGCs loss of three federal guard contracts with Social Security Administration in Durham NC, Urbana MD, and Wilkes-Barre PA. The loss of the three contracts reduced total revenue by approximately $6,593,700. This loss was offset by an increase in total revenue from TUS in the amount of $3,690,000. Also, in 2025, TUS had an increase in service fee credits issued by approximately $161,450, offset by an increase in other services revenue by approximately $169,700.
The demand for commercial services continued to increase in 2025, but the expectations of the cost of our services are out of line with the market expectations. As AGC deals with the increased labor costs, the customers are experiencing similar cost pressures and are less willing to pay for our traditional services. This conflict with commercial services needing to raise services fees and customers needing to pay less has created challenges in the market. As a result, AGC has needed to shift its approach to protecting business assets from the traditional standing guard to technology and patrol services. AGC has established a 24-hour dispatch department to monitor camera systems and direct patrolling officers to the problem locations. 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. The market continues to respond positively to this new approach to protecting company assets. AGC is planning to increase market share for these services by adding two additional individuals to our sales team and expanding to the Las Vegas Nevada market.
Currently, we have three Federal transportation contracts continuing into 2026, that approximated 89% of our total services revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025. 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 six contracts and their respective terms are as follows:
| ● | Social Security Administration, NSC | - | September 2022 through June 2025 Annual Revenue of approx. $6.1M | ||
| ● | Social security Administration, SSC | - | June 2022 through June 2025 Annual Revenue of approx. $5.4M | ||
| ● | Social Security Administration, WBDOC | - | June 2021 through June 2025 Annual Revenue of approx. $3M | ||
| ● | Veterans Administration – Long Beach CA | - | Feb 2019 through March 2026 Annual Revenue of approx. $9M | ||
| ● | Veterans Administration – Los Angeles CA | - | Oct 2024 through Sep 2029 Annual Revenue of approx. $1M | ||
| ● | Veterans Administration – Loma Linda CA | - | Oct 2024 through Sep 2029 Annual Revenue of approx. $2.8M |
As with all professional service industries, most of the expense is direct labor and expenses associated with that labor. We are not an exception. Our direct expenses average around 84% of revenues. Total direct cost of services was approximately $20,050,000 in 2025 and approximately $23,400,000 in 2024.
The total direct cost of services saw a decrease of approximately $3,033,000, or 13%. This decrease was the result of labor and benefits declining by approximately $5,436,000 after losing the federal guard contracts in July 2025. This decrease in employee expenses was offset by an increase in ither direct expenses in the amount of approximately $2,402,000.

Operating Expenses and Other Expense
Operation expenses decreased in 2025 over 2024 by approximately $140,000. Total expenses in every expense category, other than Salaries payroll taxes and benefits, Communication services, Licenses and permits, General and administration expenses and Depreciation expenses, decreased. The total decrease in expenses is approximately $762,700. The total increase in the expense categories listed above totaled approximately $622,600.
At this time, our operating structure and current level of expense can handle twice the 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.
Net (Loss) from Operations and Other Income
The Company experienced a net loss from operations of $3,134,181 for the year ending December 31, 2025, compared to a loss of $3,403,601 for the year ending December 31, 2024. A decrease in our net loss from operations of $269,420. Other income for 2025 was $2,647,040, resulting from three unusual events. AGC had a gain on sales assets in the amount of $177,176, AGC received an employee retention tax credit (ERTC) in the amount of $1,943,743 and TUS Experience a forgiveness of debt in the amount of $657,327. ARC paid an ERTC preparation fee of $247,330. Resulting in a pre-tax net loss of $487,792 for 2025 and a pre-tax net loss of $2,332,735 for 2024.
Results of Operations for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024
Revenues and Cost of Services
For 2024 the Company experienced a 26% overall increase in operational revenue, totaling approximately $5,465,000. The increase results from the inclusion of a full year of revenue from TransportUS Inc. (TUS). The increase over revenue received in 2023 totaled approximately $8,100,000, and a decrease in total guard services revenue from AmeriGuard Security Services Inc. (AGS) of approximately $2,700,000. The revenue decrease experienced by AGS was mainly from the loss of the contract with the Environmental Protection Authority, EPA, that ended in May 2023. All other revenue items had only minor changes with no significant impact on total revenue.
For the federal guard contracts, as the costs of labor increases within the unionized contract so does the revenue. For Commercial operations there is a lag between cost increases and service rate increases. It’s our practice to adjust service rates annually in the month of February. Although we did increase our billing rates for new contracts during 2024, the existing companies will not see an additional rate increase until February 2025. Although demand for services continued to increase in 2024, the expectations of the cost of those services were out of line with the market expectations. As AGS deals with the increased labor costs, the customers are experiencing similar cost pressures and are less willing to pay for our traditional services. This conflict with AGS needing to raise services fees and customers needing to pay less has created challenges in the market. As a result, AGS has needed to shift its approach to protecting business assets from the traditional standing guard to technology and patrol services. AGS has established a 24-hour dispatch department to monitor camera systems and direct patrolling officers to the problem locations. Our patrol officers respond to all alarms regardless of cause within 15 minutes of activation. This is a cost effective way for businesses to have protection without the high expense of a posted guard. The market continues to respond positively to this new approach to protecting company assets.
In 2024, we had six Federal contracts continuing into 2025, that approximated 89% of our total services revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024. 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. In 2024, our six contracts and their respective terms were as follows:
| ● | Social Security Administration, NSC | - | September 2022 through September 2027 Annual Revenue of approx. $6.1M | ||
| ● | Social security Administration, SSC | - | June 2022 through June 2027 Annual Revenue of approx. $5.4M | ||
| ● | Social Security Administration, WBDOC | - | June 2021 through July 2026 Annual Revenue of approx. $3M | ||
| ● | Veterans Administration – Long Beach CA | - | Feb 2019 through September 2025 Annual Revenue of approx. $9M | ||
| ● | Veterans Administration – Los Angeles CA | - | Oct 2024 through Sep 2029 Annual Revenue of approx. $720K | ||
| ● | Veterans Administration – Loma Linda CA | - | Oct 2024 through Sep 2029 Annual Revenue of approx. $2.1M |
As with all professional service industries, most of the expense is direct labor and expenses associated with that labor. We are not an exception. Our direct expenses averaged around 89% of revenues. Total direct cost of services was approximately $23,400,000 in 2024 and approximately $19,160,000 in 2023.
10
The total direct cost of services saw an increase of approximately $4,300,000, or 22%. This increase was expected due to the direct expenses of labor and vehicles of including a full year of TUS direct expenses. The Company acquired TUS in the fourth quarter of 2023, so there were only 2 months of expenses reflected in 2023. The increase is the net result of an increase in direct labor expenses in the amount of $2,700,000, an increase of approximately $2,000,000 in vehicle expenses. These increases were offset by a decrease in total subcontractor expenses of approximately $483,000. The gross margin increased approximately $1,200,000, a 66% increase. As a percentage, the gross margin percentage increased to 11.3% in 2024 from 8.6% in 2023.
Operating Expenses and Other Expense
Operation expenses increased in 2024 over 2023 by approximately $2,168,000. The largest category of increase was in loan interest, of approximately $1,220,000, resulting from utilizing several high-interest loans necessary to cover the operational capital needs. Professional services experienced an increase of approximately $529,000. Approximately $250,000 of this increase resulted from a class action lawsuit filed alleging labor law violations. Additionally, there was an increase in the general and administrative expenses of approximately $157,000. Within the general and administrative expenses, outside services expenses increased approximately $100,000. Advertising and marketing experience and increase of approximately $120,000. TUS expenses the graphics put on the vans in this category and added 41 vans in 2024, total cost $90,235. AGC redesigned its website and added social media advertising to increase guard services revenue. This program ended in October. There were increases in other operating expense categories such as vehicle expense, general liability insurance, licenses and permits and depreciation totaling approximately $354,000, which was offset by a decrease in administrative salaries and payroll taxes by approximately $240,000.
Net (Loss) from Operations and Other Income
The Company experienced a significant net loss from operations of $3,403,601 for the year ending December 31, 2024, compared to a loss of $2,428,682 for the year ending December 31, 2023. Other income for 2024 was $1,070,866, including a gain on deferred liability subsidiary of $1,018,500, while 2023 had other income of $2,561,555 from the Employee Retention Tax Credit received by AGS in June 2023. Resulting in a pre-tax net loss of $2,332,735 for 2024 and a pre-tax net income of $103,615 for 2023.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s principal sources of liquidity include cash from operations and proceeds from debt financing. During the year ended December 31, 2025, operations generated net cash decrease of $453,964, a significant improvement over the $2,611,537 decrease in 2024. Cash used from investing activities during 2025 was $346,273. Cash provided from financing activities was $886,071. The main source of cash from financing activities was short-term loans received in the amount of $3,994,097. Financing activities usage was total loan payments of $3,391,108.
On December 31, 2025, the Company had cash on hand of $728,915, with total current assets of $2,575,368.

However, the Court allowed them to provide additional proof that Mr. Garcia was not the controlling shareholder as of June 16, 2025. There is a court date set in February 2027. Both parties have agreed to a mediation, which is scheduled to occur in May 2026.
Interruption of Line of Credit Financing
On July 1, 2025, the Company received a notice of an event of default under its Government Purchase Order/Receivables Financing Agreement (the “Financing Agreement”), dated as of February 5, 2025, between the Company and List Government Receivables Fund, LLC (aka Legalist”) (the “Lender”). The Financing Agreement provides for a revolving line of credit for Borrower in the aggregate maximum principal amount of $7,000,000. Amounts advanced accrue interest daily at the U.S. prime rate in effect from time to time (divided by 365) plus 0.0246%. On July 1, 2025, the outstanding principal balance due was $5,845,900. Pursuant to the Financing Agreement, the Company granted to the Lender a continuing lien on and security interest in all assets of Borrower. TransportUS, Inc., a California corporation, and Lawrence D. Garcia each have guaranteed the Company’s payment and performance obligations under the Financing Agreement.
The notice stated there is the occurrence and continuation of certain Events of Default under the Financing Agreement, from at least June 12, 2025, arising from circumstances that the Lender contends constitute an Event of Default under Section 21(e) of the Financing Agreement and which, in Lender’s sole discretion, have caused Lender to deem itself insecure. As a result, since such date, incremental 4.75% interest has accrued on all of the Borrower’s obligations under the Financing Agreement and shall continue until repayment in full.
Section 21(e) of the Financing Agreement provides that an “Event of Default” shall be deemed to have occurred and be continuing if: (e) [a]ny material change occurs in Borrower’s business or business structure, expressly including its ownership or financial condition or there occurs any dispute between its principals/managers/officers, any of which (in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion) causes Lender to deem itself insecure; Borrower acknowledges that it shall not change any material aspect of its business structure.
After an Event of Default, the Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, require Government Account Debtors to pay Eligible Purchase Order and/or Eligible Receivable obligations directly to it or an affiliate, including (i) notify a Government Account Debtor that its account has been assigned to Lender by Borrower and that payment thereof shall be made to the order of and directly to Lender and (ii) demanding, collecting, or enforcing payment thereof. After an Event of Default, Lender may suspend or terminate Lender’s obligations to make advances upon notice of termination to Borrower, after which Borrower shall be obligated to pay immediately to Lender the full amount of its outstanding obligations. After an Event of Default, Borrower, its successors or assigns, shall be chargeable with and agrees to pay all costs of collection and defense, including attorneys’ fees and costs, actually incurred by Lender.
On July 1, 2025, prior to receiving the notice of default, the Company requested a draw under the Financing Agreement in the amount of $981,816, a substantial part of which was to fund the Company’s July 10, 2025 payroll obligation. On July 2, 2025, Legalist informed the Company that in light of the existing Event of Default under the Financing Agreement that it would not make any advances unless and until the default had been resolved to its satisfaction. As a result, the Company is unable to satisfy its July 10, 2025 payroll obligation, which will materially adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and financial position.
13
A copy of the Financing Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 14, 2025. The above description of the terms of the Financing Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.
As a result of the Lender’s actions described above, and in order to act responsibly and transparently with our contracting agencies, on July 14, 2025, AGSS formally notified the respective federal Contracting Officers that the Company was required to forfeit the following contracts:
Social Security Administration – Wilkes-Barre, PA (Annual Revenue: $3,184,176)
Social Security Administration – Urbana, MD (Annual Revenue: $6,339,912)
Social Security Administration – Durham, NC (Annual Revenue: $5,490,360)
On March 27, 2026, Legalist Government Receivables Fund, LP, and Legalist SPV III, LP filed in the Supreme Court of New York (Index No. 651884/2026), a Notice of Motion for Summary Judgment in Lieu of Complaint for entry of judgment against the Company, TransportUS, Inc., and Lawrence D. Garcia in the amount of $4,123,549,73, as well as attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses and further relief.
The major impact of the management dispute and interruption of the financing agreement was the loss of our operational fund source and the significant attorney fees we incurred. The lender, Legalist LLC, was providing monthly cash for operations for our then six federal contracts.
The following is an overview of the strategic plan developed for 2026
There are three avenues for AGSS to achieve the significant success it seeks for our shareholders. Those are:
| 1. | Grow the Transportation company through new federal contracts and local private party services |
| 2. | Adapt to and drive the need for high tech security services as the leader in the industry |
| 3. | Acquire industry related companies |
All three of these strategies require capital to accelerate success. Which is why a large portion of the executive management team and the board’s focus is exploring every opportunity to find a willing partner investor to join AGSS and help AGSS achieve the goal of becoming a company actively trade on the NASDAQ market.
The first avenue is rather routine for the transportation company. That is submitting bids on every VA contract that is announced. TUS has established a duplicatable structure and system allowing us to establish an operation anywhere in the USA. We can do this without a significant amount of capital, but investment capital would allow TUS own vehicles rather than leasing them, allowing for better contract pricing increasing the odds of being awarded new contracts. TUS currently has four outstanding bids and two more being prepared. In the next twelve months management anticipates approximately 6-10 RFP’s to be put out by the VA. Additionally, the market is expanding to accommodate individual’s needs for non-emergency medical transportation. TUS has been looking into ways to meet this need in a profitable way. It appears the best approach is to focus on private pay transportation. A part of our strategic plan is to first develop this service in the Fresno area and then expand by adding the service to the team in southern CA. There is a need for new capital to help develop this service. There’s a need for two new fully outfitted vehicles and personnel to be available to deliver the service and build the program.
Management is taking steps to increase revenue for our AGC subsidiary by focusing on our very successful combination of portable surveillance system, 24/7 monitoring and security guard response. This three-part approach to protecting business assets meets the needs of most businesses and is very affordable over the traditional night guard. It allows AGC to support the customers’ needs, using our portable high-tech camera systems at a much lower cost to the customer. At the same time AGC benefits from fewer guards to cover more companies. Immediately, AGSS is launching a new marketing campaign, opening a sales office in Las Vegas, and hiring two individuals to our sales team. This will provide the sales needed to cover our operational cash needs, while we develop the next level of high-tech business asset protection.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
Our consolidated balance sheets, as of December 31, 2025, and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ending December 31, 2025, and 2024, together with the related notes and the report of our independent registered public accounting firm, are set forth on the “F” pages of this report.
ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
On May 3, 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) entered an order instituting settled administrative and cease-and-desist proceedings against BF Borgers and its sole audit partner, Benjamin F. Borgers CPA, permanently barring Mr. Borgers and BF Borgers from appearing or practicing before the Commission as an accountant (the “Order”). As a result of the Order, BF Borgers may no longer serve as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company, nor can BF Borgers issue any audit reports included in Commission filings or provide consent with respect to audit reports. In light of the Order, on May 6, 2024, the Board of Directors of the Company terminated the engagement of BF Borgers as its independent registered accounting firm.
BF Borgers’s reports on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
There have been no “disagreements” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) and no “reportable event” occurred (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K) during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and the subsequent interim period up to and including May 6, 2024, the date of BF Borgers’s dismissal, between the Company and BF Borgers on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of BF Borgers, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with their report on the Company’s financial statements for those periods.
In the May 3, 2024 “Staff Statement on the Issuer Disclosure and Reporting Obligations in Light of Rule 102(e) Order Against BF Borgers CPA PC” (the “Staff Statement”), the Commission advised registrants that they may indicate in their Commission filing that BF Borgers is not currently permitted to appear or practice before the Commission for reasons described in the Order, in lieu of including a letter from BF Borgers stating whether it agrees with our disclosures under Item 304 of Regulation S-K. In light of the Order and the Staff Statement, we are not requesting BF Borgers to furnish the Company with such letter.
On May 8, 2024, the Board of Directors of the Company appointed Bush & Associates CPA, LLC (“Bush & Associates”) as the Company’s new independent registered accounting firm. During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and through May 8, 2024, neither the Company nor anyone acting on the Company’s behalf consulted Bush & Associates with respect to any of the matters or reportable events set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to ensure that information that would be required to be disclosed in the Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of December 31, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to satisfy the objectives for which they are intended. The Company appointed an independent audit committee June 14, 2023.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting and Attestation Report of Registered Public Accounting Firm
This annual report does not include a report of management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) or an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm on ICFR due to a transition period established by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for newly public companies. The SEC has adopted a transition period permitting a newly public company to wait until its second annual report to comply with Section 404(a) of Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX”). After that point, issuers that are emerging growth companies, or are not large, accelerated filers or accelerated filers are exempt from the requirements of SOX 404(b). As such, if the Company continues to satisfy as being an emerging growth company or other exemption standards as listed above, it will continue to be exempted from filing attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding ICFR.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Arrangements and Policies
Board of Directors
All directors hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal. Officers are elected by and serve at the discretion of the board.
Our directors are reimbursed for expenses incurred by them in connection with attending board meetings and receive a monthly honorarium for serving on the board.
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. |
Compensation committee
The board of directors established a compensation committee as required by Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The committee will make compensation recommendations to the board.

2025 Equity Incentive Plan
Our Board of Directors and stockholders, owning a majority of our outstanding shares plans to adopt an Equity Incentive Plan during 2026. Details of the plan will be developed with the input of the Board of Directors along with the established compensation committee.
Code of Ethics
We have not adopted a code of ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, or persons performing similar functions, because of the small number of persons involved in the management of the Company.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End
There were no outstanding equity awards held by our officers as of December 31, 2025.
Long-Term Incentive Plans and Awards
There were no awards made to a named executive officer in fiscal 2025 and 2024 under any long-term incentive plan.
Director Compensation
Directors are permitted to receive fixed fees and other compensation for their services as directors. The Board of Directors has the authority to fix the compensation of directors.
Payments to Directors declined in 2025 compared to 2024. Payments totaled $90,000 for the year ending December 31, 2025, and $135,000 for the year ending December 31, 2024. The reason for the decline was in two parts. First the two previous Board directors, Douglas Anderson and General Richard Honore, were removed by the majority shareholder Lawrence Garcia in June of 2025. This ended the stipends paid to board members. The new board members mentioned above in Item 10, have agreed to serve without compensation until the Company regains profitability and positive cash flow.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.
Related Party Transactions
As of December 31, 2025, the subsidiary TransportUS Inc., has a note receivable from AmeriGuard Security Systems, Inc. (SYS). SYS is a California Corporation, owned 100% by Lawrence Garcia, the majority shareholder of AGSS. See financial statement Note 3 for additional information regarding the note receivable.
Additionally, the Veterans Administration contracts managed by TUS are awarded to SYS.
To date TUS has managed the contracts in full, and received all revenues and paid all expenses.
Independence of the Board of Directors
For a director to be “independent” under these standards, the Board must affirmatively determine that the director has no material relationship with us, either directly or as a partner, shareholder, or officer of an organization that has a relationship with us. Applying corporate governance standards, and all other applicable laws, rules and regulations, the Board of Directors has determined that two of our directors are independent. This does constitute an independent board of directors.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of Directors and Shareholders 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, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, 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 Ameriguard Security Services, Inc. as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, 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 of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the events and conditions, including recurring operating losses, negative stockholders’ equity, significant current debt obligations, defaults under financing arrangements, adverse legal and regulatory matters, the loss of key government contracts, and the loss of a major transportation contract subsequent to year end, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the entity’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. 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 Ameriguard Security Services, Inc. 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 audits 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. Ameriguard Security Services, Inc. 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 entity’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits 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 audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated 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 judgements. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

We have served as Ameriguard Security Services, Inc.'s auditor since 2024.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
AmeriGuard Security Services, Inc. (AGS), was incorporated on
On July 7, 2021, AGS, entered into an agreement to gain
On December 9, 2022, AGS executed the reverse merger agreement and became the subsidiary of AGSS (the Company). 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.
On October 20, 2023, the Company executed a share purchase agreement to acquire TransportUS Inc. TransportUS, Inc. was incorporated on October 24, 2018, with an S-Corp tax election. The corporation was incorporated with the issuance of
The Company’s accounting year end is December 31.
Basis of Presentation
These consolidating financial statements are presented in United States dollars and have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The financial statements and notes include TransportUS Inc.’s financial results for 2024 and 2025.
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
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 winning 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.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue to operate as a going concern and they do not include any adjustments that might have an impact on the outcome of this uncertainty.
F-7
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $
During 2025 and through the filing date of these financial statements, the Company experienced significant adverse events and conditions, including: (i) the loss and premature termination of three federal security contracts with the Social Security Administration which historically generated aggregate annual revenues in excess of $
On February 5, 2025, the Company entered into a government receivables-backed line of credit of up to
In addition, as a result of the loss of the Social Security Administration contracts, resulting from the Company’s inability to timely fund payroll, the U.S. Department of Labor (“DOL”) initiated an investigation into wage and hour compliance under certain federal contracts. In February 2026, the DOL notified the Company that alleged violations of prevailing wage, fringe benefits and overtime requirements resulted in back wages of approximately $
The Company is also subject to wage-and-hour litigation, including two PAGA/class action matters involving alleged failures to pay minimum wages, sick pay, meal and rest break penalties, wage statement violations and related claims. One matter involving AmeriGuard Security of California, Inc. was settled in March 2025 for $
Subsequent to year end, on April 8, 2026, the Company was notified by the Department of Veterans Affairs that the Veterans Affairs Long Beach, California transportation contract, which had been managed by TransportUS, Inc. for approximately
These events and conditions, including recurring operating losses, negative stockholders’ equity, significant current debt obligations, defaults under financing arrangements, adverse legal and regulatory matters, the loss of key government contracts, and the loss of a major transportation contract subsequent to year end, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued.
Management’s plans to address these matters include seeking to restructure or refinance existing debt obligations, including the Legalist facility, negotiating payment plans with the DOL and other claimants, continue to pursue equity investors and convertible debt financing, continue to implement cost-reduction initiatives, and seeking to obtain new government and commercial contracts to replace lost revenue.
There can be no assurance that these plans will be successfully implemented or will be sufficient to enable the Company to meet its obligations as they become due. If the Company is unable to execute its plans and obtain additional financing on acceptable terms, it may be forced to significantly curtail or cease operations, seek protection under bankruptcy laws, or pursue other strategic alternatives.
F-8
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, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $
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 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
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 are 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
Operating Leases
In February 2016, FASB ASU No. 2016-02 established ASC Topic 842, Leases, which sets out the principles for 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.
The Company is a lessee with Enterprise Lease Management for vehicles used in operations, under an all-inclusive master lease. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease, or contains a lease, at inception of a contract and when the terms of an existing contract are changed. The Company recognizes a lease liability and a right-of-use (ROU) asset at the commencement date. The lease liability is initially and subsequently recognized based on the present value of its future lease payments. Variable payments are included in the future lease payments when those variable payments depend on an index or a rate. The discount rate is the interest rate that equates the present value of future lease payments to the Right-of-Use (ROU) asset or lease liability. The leasehold amortization was calculated using an incremental borrowing rate based on the
The Company has elected, for all underlying classes of assets, not to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less at lease commencement. As of December 31, 2025, the Company does not have any leases that qualify for this election.

Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, Revenue from contracts with customers. The core principle of the revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled for those services. There are five steps or qualifiers that determine the timing and amount of Revenue Recognition. Those five steps are:
| 1. | Identifying the contract with a customer. |
| 2. | Identifying the performance obligation in the contract. |
| 3. | Determine the transaction price. |
| 4. | Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations. |
| 5. | Recognize the revenue when the entity satisfies the performance obligation. |
The Company generates and recognizes revenue in three sales categories. Those being, Formal Contracts, Sales Agreements and Retail activities. For the retail activities, the revenue is recognized on a cash basis at the time of sale. For the other two categories, the customers are billed at the end of the month the services have been performed.
The formal contract and sales agreements stipulate the exact services to be performed and the rate the services are to be billed, as per steps 1, 2 and 3. The Company provides details of services provided with each billing invoice for customer review and approval. Any differences are resolved prior to payment, Step 4. The Company recognizes revenue in the month the services stipulated in the agreement have been provided, Step 5.
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, 2024, or 2023 since it does not believe such returns will be material.
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.
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.
F-10
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, 2024, and December 31, 2025, due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

NOTE 7 – GOODWILL
On October 20, 2023, the Company acquired TransportUS Inc. Allocation of the purchase price per ASC 805-20-25-1 yielded a goodwill amount of $
Assessing the recoverability of goodwill requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions about sales, operating margins, growth rates and discount rates based on its budgets, business plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows and marketplace data. The company under ASC 350-20 did a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than it’s carrying amount.
The fair value of the reporting unit was determined using three valuation methods: the Discounted Cash Flow method, the Guideline Company’s method and the Guideline Transactions method, incorporating the following key assumptions:
| ● | Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC): |

In March of 2025, the lawsuit against AGC was settled for $
On June 12, 2025, Douglass Anderson and Russel Honore, on behalf of the Board of Directors of the Company, removed Lawrence D. Garcia from the position of Chief Executive Officer of the Company and appointed Douglas Anderson, an independent director of the Board and member of the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee, as interim Chief Executive Officer.
On June 16, 2025, Lawrence Garcia, as a majority shareholder, pursuant to Section 3.6 of the Company’s bylaws, removed Mr. Anderson and Mr. Honore as board members. In addition, on June 16, 2025, Mr. Garcia, pursuant to the bylaws, appointed Wilhelm Cashen and Terry Slatic, as board members. The Board of Directors removed Douglas Anderson from the position of Interim Chief Executive Officer of the Company and re-appointed Mr. Garcia as Chief Executive Officer. At the same time, the Board of Directors appointed Terry Slatic and Wilhelm Cashen to be the members of the Audit Committee.
On June 17, 2025, the Company and Mr. Garcia filed a Complaint in the District Court, Clark County, Case No. A-25-921392-B (Dept. 31) (the “Complaint”), against its former directors, Douglas Anderson and Russell Honore. The Complaint seeks declaratory relief to declare that the Board’s earlier purported removal of Mr. Garcia from the Company’s Board of Directors on June 12, 2025, was in violation of the Company’s Bylaws and invalid; that Mr. Anderson and Mr. Honore are no longer members of the Board, nor of any board committees; that the Board of Directors is comprised of three directors – Mr. Garcia, Mr. Slatic, and Mr. Cashen; that Mr. Garcia is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer; and other relief. The Complaint also seeks damages and injunctive relief against Mr. Anderson and Mr. Honore for conduct alleged to have been in violation of the Company’s Bylaws. A copy of the Complaint is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on July 15, 2025 (the “July 15, 2025 Form 8-K).

On June 26, 2025, Mr. Anderson and Mr. Honore, on their own behalf and purportedly on behalf of the Company, filed an Application for Temporary Restraining Order and Motion for Preliminary Injunction against Mr. Garcia, Mr. Cashen, Mr. Slatic, and Mr. Goossen prohibiting the appointment of Mr. Cashen and Mr. Slatic to the Board of Directors, prohibiting the removal of Mr. Anderson and Mr. Honore from the Board, prohibiting the reinstitution of Mr. Garcia as Chief Executive Officer, prohibiting Mr. Garcia, Mr. Cashen, and Mr. Slatic from making or publishing any further false statements regarding their purported positions at and on the Board; prohibiting Mr. Garcia, Mr. Cashen, and Mr. Slatic from taking any further action on behalf of the Company. The Application for Temporary Restraining Order and Motion for Preliminary Injunction is attached as Exhibit 10.4 to the July 15, 2025 Form 8-K.
On July 1, 2025, Garcia filed an Opposition to Counterclaimants’ Application for Temporary Restraining Order and Motion for Preliminary Injunction.

Following a two-day evidentiary hearing on July 29 and 31, 2025, the Court denied Mr. Anderson’s and Mr. Honore’s motion for a preliminary injunction without prejudice, concluding, among other things, that Mr. Anderson and Mr. Honore failed to show a likelihood of success on the merits of their claims. However, the Court allowed them to provide additional proof that Mr. Garcia was not the controlling shareholder as of June 16, 2025. There is a court date set in February 2027. Both parties have agreed to a mediation, which is scheduled to occur in May 2026.
