PART I

Item 1. Business.

Overview

James Maritime Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation (“James Maritime”) conducts substantially all of the Company’s business through its subsidiaries, its majority-owned subsidiary, Gladiator Solutions Inc. (“Gladiator”), and its wholly owned subsidiary United Security Specialists Inc. (“USS”) (James Maritime, Gladiator and USS shall be referred to collectively as the “Company”). Gladiator produces revenues through the distribution of personal protective products, primarily through mail-in orders to customers or via e-commerce sales generated through their website. USS provides professional security personnel enhanced by smartphone-based security applications. Both Gladiator and USS are based in California.

Our Company

James Maritime has a long history operating in the U.S. public markets. The Company was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 18, 1992 as Out Takes, Inc. Through Los Alamos Energy, LLC, the Company operated a waste gas electricity plant in Los Alamos, California, which was acquired from American Cogenics in 1996. Due to uncertainties arising from PG&E’s bankruptcy, Los Alamos Energy elected to terminate its contract with PG&E, and instead entered into a Participating Generator Agreement with the California Independent System Operator (“ISO). Despite its best efforts to adjust to the turbulent California energy markets, the Company was unable to sustain its operations and shut its power plant down in November 2001 because it did not have capital available for the plant maintenance that was required for continued operations.

In 2002, because the power plant was inoperable, management began searching for potential merger and combination opportunities, with no success. After the power industry somewhat stabilized in California, the Company entered into a new power purchase agreement with PG&E and attempted to recommence operations. In order to recommence power operations, the Company had to service and refurbish the Los Alamos Energy power generation equipment, and to pay current its obligations with Nickson’s Machines amongst other creditors. In order to meet these obligations, the Company attempted to enter into an informal reorganization plan to creditors which, was ultimately unsuccessful, and it became clear that the Company would not be able to move forward in the recommencement of its operations.

In June of 2007 the Company filed a Notice of termination of their SEC registration on Form 15 in order to restructure its operations.

Between 2007 and 2014 the Company undertook the process of divesting itself of assets in order to pay down creditors, unwinding contracts and reorganizing its business. This process culminated on September 14, 2014, when Lance Hall, the sole officer and director of the Company, and majority interest owner and managing member of Los Alamos Energy, LLC, a California Limited Liability Company (“Releasor”), entered into a Debt Settlement Agreement with the Company to settle all outstanding debts and obligations of the Company owed to the Releasor or its assigns. The agreement also memorialized a termination and recission agreement which was signed, implemented and all terms of the rescission were completed on March 31, 2013, which effectively terminated and cancelled all ties and obligations to Los Alamos Energy, LLC previously agreed to in the purchase and sale agreement dated August 31, 1998. As part of the agreement Mr. Hall received $25,000 and 300,000 post-split common restricted shares of the Company (issued March 31, 2015), valued at $36,000 giving him control of the Company.

On September 18, 2014 Mr. Hall appointed Mr. Masayuki Tsuda, Ms. Kazuyo Horigane as directors, Kip Eardley was appointed to serve as Director, President and CEO of the Company and Mr. Hall’s resignation was accepted. In September of 2014, the three members of the Board of Directors funded the ongoing cleanup expenses and facilitated a search for synergistic or complementary corporate teaming partners that might be a candidate for a cooperative business combination. After the initial advance, it soon became clear to the Directors that the Company’s expenses were too high and likely unsustainable unless they were immediately reduced.

Shortly thereafter, the board of directors voted to redomicile the Company from Delaware to Nevada in order to reduce annual expenses. In conjunction with the redomicile, the Company also effectuated a reverse split of its capital stock and on January 23, 2015, a company named James Maritime Holdings, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada. On February 23, 2015, Out-Takes, Inc. merged with James Maritime Holdings, Inc., with Out-Takes being the surviving company resulting in a redomicile and change of the Company name to James Maritime Holdings, Inc.

After changing its name and re-domiciling to Nevada, the Company began to pursue a growth strategy through merger and acquisition. After vetting numerous merger candidates, the Company eventually entered into a share exchange agreement with Sweet Hemp Alabama in 2019. Sweet Hemp Alabama was engaged in the sale of hemp products through vending machines and other means of distribution.

In 2020, it became clear that the Sweet Hemp Alabama share exchange should not be closed because Sweet Hemp could not meet their closing obligations, so the Company began to unwind the contract. Majority voting control of the Company was changed again in March of 2020 when shares were issued to consultants who were hired by the Company to help identify top tier merger candidates as potential acquisition candidates.

Table of Contents

After a renewed search process, on December 13, 2021, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Gladiator Solutions, Inc. and certain shareholders of Gladiator, and the Company acquired a majority of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Gladiator in exchange for a new issuance of Company common stock to the Gladiator shareholders.

On June 11, 2022, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with United Security Specialists, Inc. and the shareholders of USS, and the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of USS in exchange for a new issuance of Company common stock.

The Company continues to aggressively pursue a growth by acquisition model and is currently identifying other potentially attractive M&A candidates in the private security and personal protective equipment industries, as well as in other business verticals that management deems to be of strategic importance.

Our Business

As mentioned above, the Company is currently pursuing an aggressive growth strategy through M&A through strategic acquisition in the private security, personnel protective equipment and defense industries. Through our subsidiaries, James Maritime Holdings, Inc. is well positioned to be at the forefront of personal protective products, private security and government contracting.

The strategic acquisition of Gladiator Solutions, Inc. made us a leading personal protective product and technology company with an established line of trusted body armor, ballistic plates and ballistic materials. The timing for this acquisition was well timed to take advantage of an expansion in demand for these products as a result of the recent fighting in the Ukraine and our efforts to supply our allies with lifesaving personal protective equipment. By exporting our products during this critical time, we are able to boost sales and brand recognition for the Gladiator line of ballistics plates while also expanding revenues for additional strategic acquisitions in the defense space.

Shortly after closing our transaction with Gladiator, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire United Security Specialists, Inc., a leading private security company with licenses in California and key guard service contracts for armed and unarmed security services. USS is a recognized industry leader in this rapidly growing market, and this acquisition positions well for potentially uncertain times ahead where security and protective services will be increasingly shifted onto the private security industry. As this segment of the market continues to expand, we will be able to leverage the Gladiator product line for any contracts that require armed security with ballistic plates, or whenever our private security clients have security teams that require ballistic plates.

We hope to continue this trend as we expand into other security industry verticals as we identify additional acquisition candidates with disruptive, transformative or high technology defense systems and products that we can market to our existing client based at an affordable cost. We will continue to identify acquisition candidates with existing or developmental technologies for unmanned systems, space and satellite communications, electronic warfare and Command, Control, Communication, Computing, Combat, Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance (“C5ISR”) Systems. Increasingly complicated compliance requirements and capital requirements will ensure that the barriers to entry in this space remain high, and we anticipate that upcoming requirements like Cyber Security Maturity Model Certification will force small businesses out of this space and away from defense contracting because they will not be able to justify the time and capital required to bid on government contracts. Moreover, the challenges with hiring quality guards, and the costs of insurance and inflation will continue to force a consolidation in the private security industry as poorly run security companies are forced out of the business.

Industry Background

In 2022, the U.S. increased its National Security Budget by 5.6% to $782,000,000,000 for Fiscal Year 2022 and approved $813,300,000,000 for Fiscal Year 2023 representing an additional 4%. In May 2022, the Additional Ukraine Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2022, was approved providing an additional $40,000,000,000 to help support the Ukraine. Meanwhile, according to a research study published to Globe Newswire by The Insight Partners¹, the homeland security market is expected to grow in size from a value of $188,990,000,000 in 2022 to $275,500,000,000 by 2028 representing a compound annual growth rate of 6.5%.

Management for the Company believes that the best way to capture this growing market is by aggressively expanding our operations through acquisition.

About Gladiator Solutions, Inc.

Our key emphasis is to provide our customers with lighter, safer and more affordable solutions that have greater ballistic capability.

Table of Contents

Gladiator is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of personal protective systems. Whether for local law enforcement, federal and state agencies or the military, our High-Performance Polyethylene (HPPE) and hybrid UHMWP/Ceramic armor provides the highest level of protection at the lightest weight.

Gladiator products are leading the way with ultimate protection, extreme comfort, minimal weight products at unsurpassed value.

Gladiator products are tested and certified in accordance with protocols developed by the National Institute of Justice, US Military Specification and European Ballistics Standards.

Gladiator proudly employs retired Law Enforcement and Military personnel across virtually all functional areas within the Gladiator organization including Sales & Marketing, Distribution, Operations, Product Development/Innovation and Tactical Training.

What Sets Gladiator Apart?

We offer top quality solutions for Federal, State and Local Law Enforcement agencies, First Responders, National Armed forces, and Independent Security Contractors.

Unsurpassed Quality & Value

Our products provide extreme lightweight, incredible comfort, maximum strength solutions at affordable prices, without compromising performance, durability or quality.

Round Dispersion Technology (RDT)

Our ballistic plates absorb the round rather than deflecting/spalling like steel or fracturing like Ceramic. RDT spreads the kinetic energy delivered by the round from the point of impact to the surrounding area, diffusing the forces of impact over a larger area and dispersing the force of the round impact.

Testing Protocol

To ensure the highest quality solutions, we age, test and certify our NIJ & Special Threat plates to and beyond certification standards. This enables Gladiator to warranty our plates to 10 years vs. the industry standard 5 years. While most testing is conducted with the widest spread for impact points (to reduce the kinetic energy absorbed by the armor material),we target the smallest area possible with the highest concentration of kinetic energy in a localized area of impact, providing Gladiator with the confidence that we are providing the highest strength to weight ratio solution to our customers.

Table of Contents

Materials & Composition

Our products are manufactured from high strength, high durability materials. The performance of these materials enables Gladiator to provide a 10-year warranty. While other products tend to break down over time, our products are manufactured from Polyethylene and Ceramic materials, providing a long and unsurpassed service life.

Compliance

We conduct our sales in accordance with Department of Justice (DOJ), the Commerce Department and the Department of State ruled governing all export controls including the International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR).

About United Security Specialists

USS Mission

The mission of USS is to recruit right, train right, and respond early. Our clients should expect day-to-day quality, consistency, and professionalism. Our security personnel are more experienced, better supervised, and are dedicated to the highest level of work.

USS History

USS was built on ethics and integrity. Kyle and Henry founded this company in 2017 when they discovered a number of industry practices that were neither ethical nor acceptable. Since both of them had been around in this industry for decades, starting USS was an exciting endeavor that had allowed them to utilize and combine their years of experience with their solid work ethic and integrity. We value every client that has partnered with us, and we work to establish a solid relationship with our team. It is the strong relationship bonds that help our company continue to grow and to serve more valued partners.

Our Guards

We have highly trained and committed professionals from law enforcement, military, and security veterans’ communities who are all specializing in providing one thing: on site, visible protection. We take pride in delivering the highest level of trust to our clients; therefore, we have a robust qualifying process to ensure all our team members are not just qualified but also enthusiastic and professional.

Our Services

We pride ourselves in providing the most reliable protection in the security guard industry. With over 10 years of experience, we have proven to be unshakable and trustworthy. To enhance our service, we implement the latest technology into our process. With our mobile app provided by SilverTrac, our guards are able to check in, make reports and take photos in real time as they patrol.

USS will also focus on adding services which customize real-time remote monitoring enhanced by artificial intelligence with timely in person security response.

USS services are grouped into three main categories:

1) On Site Protection

2) Mobile Patrol

3) Event Security

___________________________________________________________________________________

On Site Protection

As a trusted provider of security specialists in the Bay Area, we understand the importance of reliable, professional and courteous security service, especially when it involves on-site protection at your establishment. Regardless of the scale of your need, from a single guard at the reception area to deploying multiple teams of officers for warehouse protection, USS will provide your organization with a solution that fits for you and your team.

Table of Contents

Starting with our risk assessment framework, our expertise is in efficiently and effectively developing solutions that match different combinations of business environments and their specific security needs.

___________________________________________________________________________________

Mobile Patrol

Having security specialists check in on your property on a scheduled route is a prevalent approach for many businesses that do not require a constant on-site presence. Our risk assessment team will help determine the most appropriate time frame and frequency of the patrolling route. Our licensed security specialists will carry out all of the inspection procedures designed specifically for your site according to plan. All activities are updated through our proprietary real-time reporting and location-tracking technology. We pride ourselves in utilizing the latest technology to enhance our services. With our mobile app provided by SilverTrac, our guards are able to check in, file incident reports and take photos in real time as they patrol.

___________________________________________________________________________________

Event Security

Table of Contents

USS has an outstanding track record as a top tier event security partner. We have solid experience with security and crowd control at major concerts, outdoors events and convention center programs. Our specialists are well-trained for large events so they can easily identify potential threats and mitigate them to avoid interruptions and disturbances. With USS as your partner, you can focus on the event agenda knowing that your employees and guests are safe, litigation risk is reduced, and your event will go off without a hitch.

___________________________________________________________________________________

Our Competitive Strengths

Our competitive edge in the security industry lies in our in-field support and quality control through responsiveness to customers, investment in field, our supervisors and our administrative support. For guard services, this allows us to minimize the #1 strategic risk for our industry, which is litigation risk. Another competitive advantage that we have is our access to a pipeline of highly professional, military-trained and experienced personnel for our high-end clients facing significant threats such as synagogues and schools.

In the protective products industry, our strength is the unsurpassed quality and value of our products. Not only are our products light weight and comfortable, but we are able to provide the maximum level of ballistic protection at affordable prices, and without compromising performance, durability or quality.

Our desire to drive innovation and create ever lighter, stronger, more practical and effective products and protection solutions is what drives us. As a lean, flexible and nimble company, we are constantly challenging the status quo within our organization, and we are never set in our ways. Through innovation we are able to deliver a lighter, thinner and more effective for ballistic protective plate for law enforcement, military and responsible civilians.

We are always working harder to strengthening the Gladiator community by raising our standards of customer service and overall customer satisfaction. Our team is an industry leader in customer service, and we achieve this by delivering products much faster that our competition, usually within 4-6 weeks while providing timely updates throughout the production process.

Our Growth and Marketing Strategy

“We believe that those who protect and serve and risk their lives to preserve our way of life, shouldn’t have to spend a fortune to protect themselves.”

–Matt Materazo, Founder & CEO

The elements of our growth strategy start with our commitment to continuous capital reinvestment into our Company, its subsidiaries and our strategic industry partners. We lead by example and set the pace for our industry in order to attract the leading regional security companies and protective products companies to join us as stakeholders. The core of our business growth strategy is to engage directly with our community stakeholders in growing urban markets where the breakdown of cultural values and community investment has left a vacuum of need.

Risks Associated with Our Business

Our business is subject to numerous risks, which are more fully described in the section entitled “Risk Factor” beginning on page 14 of this document. We may be unable, for many reasons, including those that are beyond our control, to implement our business strategy.

As a result of these risks and other risks there is no guarantee that we will experience growth or profitability in the future.

Table of Contents

Recent Developments

There are several trends that provide opportunities and risks for USS:

	o	The breakdown and underfunding of traditional law enforcement leading to passive response to riots, resulting break-ins, shoplifting, and property destruction on the large scale (See Portland 2020).
	o	The rise of the lawless corollary on the small scale with burgeoning vagrancy, break-ins and theft (e.g., catalytic converters in automobiles, construction materials such as tools and copper conduit).
	o	The refusal of cities to enforce vagrancy laws and suppress the crime associated with chronic criminal trespassing and its detrimental effect on business. This leads to a transfer of burden to business owners who turn to private security companies to mitigate. This applies to all sectors – residential, commercial and municipal.
	o	Finally, the sense of personal physical risk has been heightened in culture leading to the need to provide protection to employees and residents. For example, employees want protection as they come and go to their vehicle in areas of high crime.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Use of Estimates

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

Management makes estimates that affect certain accounts including deferred income tax assets, accrued expenses, fair value of equity instruments and reserves for any other commitments or contingencies. Any adjustments applied to estimates are recognized in the period in which such adjustments are determined.

Consequently, in light of the deferred issuance, the transaction was recorded as a liability rather than as an equity transaction on the Company’s financial statements for the period ending December 31, 2022. The raised funds were allocated for general corporate purposes. The share commitment was executed in accordance with Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Regulation D, Rule 504 and or Rule 701, without the engagement of underwriters.

On February 28, 2022, the Company issued 50,000 shares of common stock at $1 per share to an officer, raising $50,000. The funds were used for general corporate purposes and to finance the acquisition of Gladiator and USS. The issuance was conducted in line with Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Regulation D, Rule 504 and or Rule 701, without the participation of underwriters.

On May 12, 2022, the Company issued 100,000 shares at $1 per share, raising a total of $100,000 from two separate investors. The raised funds were allocated for general corporate purposes and to support the acquisition of Gladiator and USS. The shares were issued under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Regulation D, Rule 504, without the involvement of underwriters.

On September 23, 2022, in alignment with a stock-exchange agreement leading to the acquisition of United Security Solutions, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares at $1 per share. Notably, 940,000 of these shares were allotted to an officer of USS. The funds facilitated the acquisition of USS. The transaction was executed under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Regulation D, Rule 504 and or Rule 701, without the engagement of underwriters.

On October 11, 2022, 100,000 units were issued as part of a share purchase agreement. Each unit consisted of one restricted common share and a warrant allowing the holder to purchase ten additional restricted shares at $3.50 per share. The funds raised were intended for general corporate purposes. This transaction complied with Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Regulation D, Rule 504, without the participation of underwriters.

On October 14, 2022, the Company issued 100,000 shares at $1 per share to an officer, generating $100,000. On the same day, 300,000 shares were issued in compensation for consulting services, leading to a recognized consulting expense of $300,000. Both issuances were carried out in accordance with Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Regulation D, Rule 504 and or Rule 701, without the involvement of underwriters.

As of January 1, 2021, no warrants were outstanding. During 2022, the Company granted 1,000,000 warrants with an exercise price of $3.50. As of December 31, 2022, these warrants remain outstanding and exercisable at the set exercise price.

Business Overview

James Maritime Holdings, Inc. operates mainly through its subsidiaries, Gladiator and USS. Gladiator specializes in the distribution of personal protective products, largely through mail-in orders and e-commerce channels. On the other hand, USS offers a combination of professional security personnel services, enhanced by smartphone-based security applications, providing a unique blend of traditional and modern security solutions. The consolidated financial statements were prepared according to U.S. GAAP and SEC regulations. The Company has adopted a December 31 fiscal year-end for financial statement reporting.

The financial statements were prepared with estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. These estimates were used for inventories, impairment of long-term assets, and derivatives. The actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Business combinations were accounted for using the acquisition method. Assets, liabilities, and any remaining non-controlling interests were recognized at fair value on the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interests, was recognized as goodwill. The company considers investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the purchase date as cash and cash equivalents.

Recent Developments

During the past two fiscal years, the company underwent significant corporate changes.

Share Exchange Agreements and Stock Conversions

James Maritime solidified its position in the market by becoming the majority shareholder of Gladiator Solutions Inc., holding approximately 86.7% of all shares outstanding as of December 13, 2021. The acquisition of Gladiator Solutions, Inc. resulted in the issuance of 866,667 shares and brought the total common stock balance to 7,354,129 by the end of 2021. Furthermore, on September 23, 2022, the company fortified its portfolio by completing a share exchange agreement with USS, resulting in James Maritime securing 100% of all USS shares. The acquisition of USS resulted in the issuance of 1,000,000 shares and by the end of 2022 and 2023, and the common stock balance reached 9,004,129 and 9,064,129, respectively. Additional paid-in capital also saw a significant increase to $13,769,537 as of December 31, 2023, reflecting the stock issuances and compensations during the previous two years.

Going concern

The Company’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023, are prepared using U.S. GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. This contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has yet to establish an ongoing source of revenue to finance its operating expenses and to continue as a going concern.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company generated a net loss of $2,618,965. The accumulated deficit as of December 31, 2023 is $13,915,927 ($11,454,076 as of December 31, 2022). In order to continue as a going concern, the Company plans to receive funds through the selling of equity securities to existing and new shareholders. The Company is also evaluating potential acquisitions in the corporate security space. Additionally, the Company has created and maintained good customer relationships during 2023 for both USS and Gladiator, which the Company is relying on to potentially generate sustainable sales throughout 2024 and afterward. While management maintains they will be able to continue to generate sufficient cash flows through a combination of operations, debt, and equity raises, there is no guarantee the Company will be able to raise or generate additional funds in the short term to meet present obligations as they come due. Due to these factors, there is substantial doubt the Company may be able to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Results of Operations

Years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022

For the year ending December 31, 2023, the Company had net sales of $8,820,348, in contrast to $4,063,122 in 2022, as the Company marked its first full year of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023. Accounts receivables reached $720,112 as of December 31, 2023, which is relatively consistent from the 2022 calednar year. Intangible assets decreased by $2,062,006 from $4,150,280 in 2022 to $2,088,274 in 2023 as a result of the full impairment of Gladiator assets.

Table of Contents

Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased by $533,986 year over year. Deferred revenue, from advanced payments or unearned revenue, saw a decrease of $400,000 in 2023. Liabilities increased slightly from $3,592,112 as of December 31, 2022 to $3,733,310 as of December 31, 2023.

Cost of Revenue

The cost of sales for 2023 was $6,053,710, reflecting a full year of sales activities, compared to $3,213,604 in 2022. This growth in sales resulted from enhanced business operations and an expanded customer base as a result of global volatility and military conflicts in 2023.

General and Administrative

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $3,542,186 in 2023, in comparison to $3,162,780 in 2022. General and administrative expenses increased mainly due to accounting and legal expenses and administrative expenses resulting from our rapid growth via the acquisition of USS.

Other Income and Expenses

There was a gain from change in derivative liability of $156,354 in 2023. However, these gains were offset by interest expenses of $1,062,034 and financial expenses of $26,607. In total, the net other loss for 2023 was $931,950, a significant increase from net other income of $2,426,707 in 2022, which was mainly caused by the employee retention credits received in the prior year.

Net loss and Net Gain

The Company reported a net loss of $2,618,965 for 2023, compared to net income of $113,445 for 2022. The large change year over year is due to a large employee retention credit that was received in the prior year to offset operating losses. The Company saw a significant reduction in its operating losses during 2023 for a favorable change of $626,247. On a per-share basis, the basic and diluted net loss for 2023 was $0.27, respectively, compared to a net loss per share of $0.03 and $0.02, respectively, in basic and diluted terms for 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Operating Activities

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company reported net cash used in operating activities of $269,544, down from net cash provided by of $178,269 in 2022. This decrease can be mainly attributed to a increase in the net loss by $2,732,410. Other significant non-cash adjustments in 2023 included the loss on impairment of intangible assets of $911,467. This was offset by an increase in the changes in working capital by $859,959.

Investing Activities

In 2023, the net cash provided by investing activities decreased by $9,637 to zero, primarily due to a decrease in the cash acquired from the acquisition of United Security Specialists, Inc. (USS) of $21,437, offset by an acquisition of property and equipment of $11,800 in the previous year.

Financing Activities

Financing activities in 2023 resulted in a net cash outflow of $140,359. This was mainly due to repayments of notes and loans payable of $482,383 which was offset by proceeds from the issuance of notes payable amounting to $374,619. In 2022, the financing activities led to a net cash inflow of $157,088, primarily from the proceeds from the issuance of common stock totaling $400,000, offset by a net outflow for changes in the Company’s debt financing of $242,912.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholder and the Board of Directors of

James Maritime Holdings Inc.

OPINION ON THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of James Maritime Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023, and the related statement of operations and comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT ABOUT THE COMPANY’S ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the entity will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the entity has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

BASIS FOR OPINION

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated 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 the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB and in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated 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 audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To Board of Directors and Management of James Maritime Holdings Inc

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of James Maritime Holdings Inc and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022, and the related consolidated statement of operations, shareholders’ equity, 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 the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The financial statements were prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit and has not yet established an ongoing source of revenue to finance its operating expenses. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reporting amounts of assets and liabilities.

Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for inventories, impairment of long-term assets and derivatives.

It is reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation, or set of circumstances that existing at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results of could differ significantly from those estimates.

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for all business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Under this method, assets and liabilities, including any remaining non-controlling interests, are recognized at fair value at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed, and non- controlling interests is recognized as goodwill. Certain adjustments to the assessed fair values of assets and liabilities, or non-controlling interests made subsequent to the acquisition date, but within the measurement period, which is up to one year, are recorded as adjustments to goodwill. Any adjustments subsequent to the measurement period are recorded in income. Results of operations of the acquired entity are included in the Company’s results from the date of the acquisition onward and include amortization expense arising from acquired tangible and intangible assets.

Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash and cash equivalents.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash accounts with financial institutions, where, at times, deposits exceed federal insurance limits of $250,000. The Company believes that no significant concentration of credit risk exists with respect to these cash balances due to its assessment of the credit worthiness and financial viability of the financial institutions.

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of finished goods. Costs of finished goods inventories include all costs incurred to bring inventory to its current condition, which includes standard cost paid to suppliers, shipping costs, and other costs. The Company values its inventory using specific identification method of each inventory item. If the Company determines that the estimated net realizable value of its inventory is less than the carrying value of such inventory, it records a charge to cost of goods sold to reflect the lower of cost or net realizable value. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by the Company, further adjustments may be required that would increase the cost of goods sold in the period in which such a determination was made.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivables are generally recorded at the invoiced amounts, net of an allowance for expected losses. The Company evaluates the collectability of its trade accounts receivable based on a number of factors. In circumstances where the Company becomes aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations to the Company, a specific reserve for bad debts is estimated and recorded, which reduces the recognized receivable to the estimated amount the Company believes will ultimately be collected. In addition to specific customer identification of bad debts, bad debt charges are recorded based on the Company’s historical losses and an overall assessment of past due trade accounts receivable outstanding. The allowance for accounts receivable is established through a provision reducing the carrying value of receivables. At December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company determined that no allowance was necessary.

Leases

The Company accounts for a contract as a lease when it has the right to direct the use of the asset for a period of time while obtaining substantially all of the asset’s economic benefits. The Company determines the initial classification and measurement of its right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities at the lease commencement date and thereafter if modified. ROU assets and liabilities are represented on the balance sheet at the present value of future minimum lease payments to be made over the lease term. Leases that are insignificant or with a 12-month term or less at inception are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheet and are expensed as incurred in the consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2023, the Company leased real estate and office space under non-cancelable operating lease agreements that qualified for ROU accounting treatment.

Property and equipment

The Company records depreciation when appropriate using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets. Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The estimated useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment by class are as follows:

Asset classes	Useful lives (in years)
Vehicles	5
Furniture and fixtures	7

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

Management regularly reviews property, equipment, and other long-lived assets for possible impairment. This review occurs annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Based on management’s assessment, there were no indicators of impairment of the Company’s property and equipment as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition and are allocated to the reporting units that are expected to receive the related benefits. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 the Company determined that all intangibles were fully recognizable at their net book values and therefore no impairment was deemed necessary.

On September 23, 2022, the Company executed a share exchange agreement that resulted in the recognition of intangible assets (see Note 4 – USS Share Exchange Agreement). Management has determined that the intangible assets extrapolated from the share exchange agreement will be amortized over the useful life of 3 years.

Convertible Debt and Derivative Liabilities

The convertible debt is convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion rate of 10% of the lowest trading price during the previous five trading days. The terms of the embedded conversion feature require embedded derivative instrument treatment and classification as a separate liability. The conversion feature and certain other features are considered embedded derivative instruments, such as a conversion reset provision, a penalty provision and redemption option, which are to be recorded at their fair value as its fair value can be separated from the convertible note and its conversion is independent of the underlying note. The Company records the resulting discount on debt related to the conversion features at initial transaction and amortizes the discount using the effective interest rate method over the life of the debt instruments. The conversion liability is then marked to market each reporting period with the resulting gains or losses shown in the consolidated statement of operations.

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies its performance obligations by transferring control of promised products or services to its customers, which occurs either at a point in time or over time, depending on when the customer obtains the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the products or services.

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following five steps:

(1) Identify the contract with the customer,

(2) identify the performance obligations in the contract,

(3) determine the transaction price,

(4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

(5) recognize revenue when, or as, the performance obligations are satisfied.

Net revenues from Gladiator primarily consist of sales of personal protective products, including armor, plates, helmets, shields, and accessories shipped directly to customers. All revenue transactions for Gladiator comprise a single performance obligation, which consists of the sale of products to customers either through wholesale, intermediary, or direct-to-consumer channels. The company satisfies the performance obligation and records revenues when transfer of control has passed to the customer, based on the terms of sale. In all of the Companies revenue channels, transfer of control takes place at the point of sale upon shipment to customer.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

Net revenues from United Securities primarily consist of security services provided to large residential, industrial, construction and government clients. Contracts with customers contain no incentives or discounts that could cause revenue to be allocated or adjusted over time. The Company does offer discounts, but historically the discounts have been insignificant. The Company satisfies the performance obligation for the agreed-upon period of time and location and records revenues after completion. There are no services that would be considered fulfilled over an extended period of time and necessitate different accounting treatment.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are charged to selling, general, and administrative expenses. Advertising production costs are expensed the first time an advertisement related to such production costs is run. Media (television, print and radio) placement costs are expensed in the month during which the advertisement appears. Advertising expenses for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, were $80,196 and $50,110, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company incurs freight costs associated with shipping goods to customers. These costs are recorded as a component of cost of goods sold. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, shipping and handling costs totaled $13,196 and $35,122, respectively.

Earnings (loss) per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share are computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders for the period by the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution from common shares issuable through stock options, restricted stock units and other equity awards. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company generated a net income, therefore calculated diluted earnings per share with the applicable equity instruments. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company generated net losses, therefore applying applicable equity instruments for diluted earnings (loss) per share would have had an anti-dilutive effect. Please see Note 14 for the computation of earnings (loss) per common share for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts shown for the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and notes and loans approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of those instruments.

The Company groups its recurring, non-recurring and disclosure-only fair value measurements into the following levels when making fair value measurement disclosures:

Level 1	Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2	Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in an active market, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and market-corroborated inputs which are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3	Inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The Company and its subsidiaries use, as appropriate, a market approach (generally, data from market transactions), an income approach (generally, present value techniques and option-pricing models), and / or a cost approach (generally, replacement cost) to measure the fair value of an asset or liability. These valuation approaches incorporate inputs such as observable, independent market data and/or unobservable data that management believes are predicated on the assumptions market participants would use to price an asset or liability. These inputs may incorporate, as applicable, certain risks such as nonperformance risk, which includes credit risk.

The Company received a fair value assessment from a third-party prior to the business combination with Gladiator. See Note 3 for further details and assumptions used in the calculation.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities at tax rates expected to be in effect when such assets or liabilities are realized or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date of a change in tax rates. Deferred income tax assets are reduced by valuation allowances when necessary. On December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no material unrecognized tax benefits and no adjustments to liabilities or operations were required. The 2020 through 2023 tax years remain subject to examination by federal and most state tax authorities.

Commitments and Contingencies

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings. The Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings, or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is possible but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.

Non-controlling Interests

Non-controlling interests are classified in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as a component of equity. The amounts of consolidated net income (loss) attributable to both the Company and the non-controlling interests are separately presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13. Credit Losses (Topic 326) – Measurement of Credit Losses of Financial Statements Instruments. ASU 2016-13 requires entities to use a forward-looking approach based on current expected credit losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables, which may result in the earlier recognition of allowance for losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective beginning January 1, 2023 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have any material impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt — Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options (“ASU 2021-04”). ASU 2021-04 provides guidance as to how an issuer should account for a modification of the terms or conditions or an exchange of a freestanding equity- classified written call option (i.e., a warrant) that remains equity classified after modification or exchange as an exchange of the original instrument for a new instrument. An issuer should measure the effect of a modification or exchange as the difference between the fair value of the modified or exchanged warrant and the fair value of that warrant immediately before modification or exchange and then apply a recognition model that comprises four categories of transactions and the corresponding accounting treatment for each category (equity issuance, debt origination, debt modification, and modifications unrelated to equity issuance and debt origination or modification). ASU 2021-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity should apply the guidance provided in ASU 2021- 04 prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring on or after the effective date. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity elects to early adopt ASU 2021-04 in an interim period, the guidance should be applied as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The adoption of ASU 2021-04 did not have any material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures.

3. Share Exchange Agreement with United Securities Specialists, Inc. (USS)

On September 23, 2022 (the “USS Closing date”), USS entered into a share exchange agreement with the Company, in which all the outstanding shares, 100 common shares, no par value, were exchanged for 1,000,000 shares, $0.001 par value of James Maritime common stock.

The Company also included contingent considerations if USS meets or exceeds certain earnings before interest, taxes, amortization (“EBITDA”) thresholds:

	-	$20,000,000 and 15% during any consecutive (12) month period commencing on the Closing date and ending on December 31, 2025 (“the Measurement Period”), the Company shall issue an aggregate 500,000 shares of James Maritime stock
	-	$30,000,000 and 15% during the measurement period, the Company shall issue an aggregate 500,000 shares of James Maritime stock
	-	$40,000,000 and 15% during the measurement period, the Company shall issue an aggregate 500,000 shares of James Maritime stock
	-	$50,000,000 and15% during the measurement period, the Company shall issue an aggregate 500,000 shares of James Maritime stock

If all criteria are met, an aggregate of 2,000,000 earnout shares will be awarded to the Company.

The Company utilized a third-party valuation specialist to calculate the intangible assets and estimate the purchase price of the agreement. The valuation utilized a share purchase price of $1.00, which constitutes a Level 2 fair value measurement.

The allocation of the purchase price in connection with the acquisition of USS was calculated as follows:

Purchase price (2)	$	1,000,000
Plus: Net liabilities assumed (3)		2,439,614
Intangibles (1)	$	3,439,614

(1) Intangibles were determined to consist of two separately identifiable intangible assets to be amortized over their useful lives of 3 years (the average time the Company has maintained customer and employee relationships). 50% of the value or $1,719,807 was attributable to Employee Expertise and 50% of the value or $1,719,807 was attributable to Customer Relationships.

(2) The purchase price was calculated by taking the recapitalization of James Maritime Holdings shares of 1,000,000 (previously 100 Company shares) at $1.00 per share, resulting in a total purchase price of $1,000,000.

The Company is authorized to issue 2,000,000 shares of its series A preferred stock, each with a par value of $0.001.

12. Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common shareholders less any preferred dividends by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) minus preferred dividends by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus common stock equivalents (if dilutive).

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS:

	Years ended December 31,
	2023			2022
Net (loss) income	$	(2,618,965	)	$	113,445
Less: Net (loss) income attributable to noncontrolling interests		(157,114	)		(91,449	)
Net (loss) income attributable to James Maritime shareholders		(2,461,851	)		204,894

Weighted average common shares outstanding- basic		9,046,047			7,842,865

Dilutive effect of convertible debentures and warrants		-			428,886

Weighted average common shares outstanding – diluted		9,046,047			8,271,751

Basic earnings (loss) per share	$	(0.27	)	$	0.03

Diluted earnings (loss) per share	$	(0.27	)	$	0.02

There are approximately 64,783 number of shares that are not considered in the above calculation of 2023 diluted EPS as they would be anti-dilutive in nature. These shares are attributable to convertible notes issued in 2021. No other equity instruments exist that would be applied in the calculation of diluted earnings per share in the case they were dilutive in nature.

The tax effects of temporary differences which give rise to deferred tax assets (liabilities) are summarized as follows:

	For the years ended December 31,
	2023			2022
Net operating loss carry forwards	$	1,381,803		$	846,059
Right of use assets		-			4,202

Valuation allowance		(1,340,444	)		(832,476	)
Net deferred tax assets	$	-		$	-

The Company had net operating losses of approximately $6,647,817 for both federal and state that were generated in the current year which do not expire but are subject to an 80% utilization against future taxable income.

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Deferred tax assets consist primarily of the tax effect of NOL carry-forwards. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets because of the uncertainty regarding its realizability.

The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits as additional income taxes in the statement of operations. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits. There were no changes in the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. The Company did not recognize any interest or penalties during the 2023 and 2022 fiscal year related to unrecognized tax benefits.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

There are not and have not been any disagreements between the Company and its accountants on any matter of accounting principles, practices or financial statement disclosure.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:

As of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-K, management performed, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on the evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Due to resource constraints, material weaknesses are evident to management regarding our inability to generate all the necessary disclosure for inclusion in our filings with the Securities and Exchanges Commission, which is due to the lack of resources and segregation of duties. We lack sufficient personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in GAAP to meet the demands for a public company, including the accounting skills and understanding necessary to fulfill the requirements of GAAP-based reporting. This weakness causes us to not fully identify and resolve accounting and disclosure issues that could lead to a failure to perform timely internal control and reviews. In addition, the Company has not established an audit committee, does not have any independent outside directors on the Company’s Board of Directors, and lacks documentation of its internal control processes.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting: Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed 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 key internal controls for the Company are provided by executive management’s review and approval of all transactions. Our internal control over financial reporting also includes those policies and procedures that:

(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management; and

(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls and procedures over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of these controls.

Based on this assessment, we have identified material weaknesses in our internal controls, weaknesses in our compliance with US GAAP and weaknesses in our risk assessment and monitoring. The Company lacks sufficient personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in GAAP to meet the demands for a public company, including the accounting skills and understanding necessary to fulfill the requirements of GAAP-based reporting. This weakness causes us to not fully identify and resolve accounting and disclosure issues that could lead to a failure to perform timely internal control and reviews. In addition, the Company has not established an audit committee, does not have any independent outside directors on the Company’s Board of Directors, and lacks documentation of its internal control processes, management has concluded that as of December 31, 2023, our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Corporate Governance by Board - Meetings, Committees and Audit Committee Financial Expert

In general, Boards of Directors have responsibility for risk management responsibilities and establishing broad corporate policies and reviewing overall performance rather than day-to-day operations. Also, a primary responsibility of a Board is to oversee the management of the Company and, in doing so, serve the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Boards select, evaluate and provide for the succession of executive officers and, subject to stockholder election, directors. Boards review and approve corporate objectives and strategies and evaluate significant policies and proposed major commitments of corporate resources. Boards of Directors also participate in decisions that have a potential major economic impact on the Company. Management keeps directors informed of company activity through regular communication, including written reports and presentations at Board and committee meetings.

We do not currently have regularly scheduled quarterly Board meetings, nor do we have standing audit, nominating or compensation committees of our Board of Directors, or any committee performing similar functions. Our Board of Directors performs the functions of audit, nominating and compensation committees. As of the date of this report, no member of our Board of Directors qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation SK promulgated under the Securities Act.

The Company is evaluating expansion of its current Board of Directors, including the addition of an independent board member with sufficient accounting and financial experience to chair an audit committee, as well as creating charters for its contemplated audit committee and compensation committee.

Director Nominations

As of December 31, 2023, we did not affect any material changes to the procedures by which our shareholders may recommend nominees to our board of directors. We have not established formal procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to the Company’s board of directors.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a code of ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, or persons performing similar functions. A copy of our code of ethics may be obtained free of charge by contacting us at the address or telephone number listed on the cover page hereof.

Section 16 Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors, executive officers and significant stockholders (defined by statute as stockholders beneficially owning more than 10% of our common stock) to file with the SEC initial reports of beneficial ownership, and reports of changes in beneficial ownership, of our common stock. Directors, executive officers and significant stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely on a review of the copies of Forms 3, 4 and 5 (and amendments thereto) filed with the SEC and submitted to us, and on written representations by certain directors and executive officers received by us, we believe that all of our executive officers, directors and significant stockholders complied with all applicable filing requirements under Section 16(a) during the year ended December 31, 2023.

Item 11. Executive Compensation.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

None.

Corporate Governance and Director Independence

The Company has not:

	·	established its own definition for determining whether its directors and nominees for directors are “independent” nor has it adopted any other standard of independence employed by any national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system, though our current director would not be deemed to be “independent” under any applicable definition given that he is an officer of the Company; nor

	·	established any committees of the board of directors.

Given the nature of the Company’s business, its limited stockholder base and the current composition of management, the board of directors does not believe that the Company requires any corporate governance committees at this time.

As of the date hereof, the entire board serves as the Company’s audit committee.

Item 14. Principal Accounting Fees and Services.

Independent Public Accountants

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following five steps:

(1) Identify the contract with the customer,

(2) identify the performance obligations in the contract,

(3) determine the transaction price,

(4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

(5) recognize revenue when, or as, the performance obligations are satisfied.

Earnings (loss) per Share

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company groups its recurring, non-recurring and disclosure-only fair value measurements into the following levels when making fair value measurement disclosures:

Level 1	Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2	Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in an active market, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and market-corroborated inputs which are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3	Inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable.

The Company received a fair value assessment from a third-party prior to the business combination with Gladiator. See Note 3 for further details and assumptions used in the calculation.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reporting amounts of assets and liabilities.

Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for inventories, impairment of long-term assets and derivatives.

Business Combinations

Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash and cash equivalents.

Revenue recognition

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following five steps:

(1) Identify the contract with the customer,

(2) identify the performance obligations in the contract,

(3) determine the transaction price,

(4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

(5) recognize revenue when, or as, the performance obligations are satisfied.

Advertising Costs

Earnings per Share

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company groups its recurring, non-recurring and disclosure-only fair value measurements into the following levels when making fair value measurement disclosures:

Level 1	Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2	Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in an active market, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and market-corroborated inputs which are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3	Inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable.

The Company received a fair value assessment from a third-party prior to the business combination with Gladiator. See Note 3 for further details and assumptions used in the calculation.
