Explanatory Note

This Amendment No.1 of the fiscal year 2015 Form 10K (this “Amendment”) for Global Digital Solutions Inc. is being submitted the incorporate errors to the financial statements that were incorrectly incorporated in the original filing. The document that was provided by the third-party consultant engaged by the management to assist in the preparation of the financial statements did not include all of the revisions identified and requested by management. This Amendment identified all prior revisions identified by management which were left off the prior Form 10K in error.

Forward Looking Statements

This Memorandum includes statements that are, or may be deemed to be, “forward-looking statements,” as defined in the Private Securities Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms “believes,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “will,” “seeks” or “should” or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology, or in relation to discussions of strategy, plans, objectives, goals, future events or intentions. These forward-looking statements include matters that are not historical facts. They appear in a number of places throughout this Private Placement Memorandum and include statements regarding Issuer’s current intentions, beliefs or expectations concerning, among other things, the Issuer’s future plans for the Project, results of operations, financial condition, prospects, growth, strategies and the markets in which the Issuer intends to operate.

By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. Forward-looking statements are not an assurance of future performance. The Issuer’s actual results of operations and financial condition may differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this document. In addition, even if the Issuer’s future results of operations and financial condition are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this document, those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods. The information in this Private Placement Memorandum, including, but not limited to, the information under “Risk Factors,” identifies important factors that could cause such differences (including, but not limited to, a change in overall economic conditions in the United States, a change in the Issuer’s financial condition, changes in tax law or the interpretation thereof, interest rate fluctuations and other market conditions, and the effect of new legislation or government directives).

Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, information concerning possible or assumed future results of the Issuer’s operations set forth under the section entitled “Business of the Issuer”. Such statements, estimates and projections reflect various assumptions by the Issuer concerning anticipated results and are subject to significant business, financing, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Issuer and are based upon assumptions with respect to future business decisions that are subject to change. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that such statements, estimates and projections will be realized or that actual results will not vary considerably from those anticipated, expected or projected. The Issuer, its accountants, its legal advisers and its agents or affiliates do not make any representations as to the accuracy or completeness of such statements, estimates and projections, or that any forecasts will be achieved.

The Issuer is not obliged to, and does not intend to, update or revise any forward-looking statements made in this Private Placement Memorandum whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All subsequent written forward-looking statements attributable to the Issuer, or persons acting on behalf of the Issuer, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained throughout this Private Placement Memorandum. As a result of these risks, prospective investors of the Convertible Bonds should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Neither the forward-looking statements nor the underlying assumptions have been verified or audited by any third party.

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Forward-Looking Statements

This Annual Report on Form 10-K includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect management's current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are projections in respect of future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates.” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Those statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of us and members of our management team, as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based. Prospective investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risk and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks in the section entitled “Risk Factors” set forth in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, any of which may cause our company’s or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks include, by way of example and without limitation:

●

our ability to successfully commercialize and our products and services on a large enough scale to generate profitable operation;

●

our ability to maintain and develop relationships with customers and suppliers;

●

our ability to successfully integrate acquired businesses or new brands;

●

the impact of competitive products and pricing;

●

supply constraints or difficulties;

●

the retention and availability of key personnel;

●

general economic and business conditions;

●

substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern;

●

our need to raise additional funds in the future;

●

our ability to successfully recruit and retain qualified personnel in order to continue our operations;

●

our ability to successfully implement our business plan;

●

our ability to successfully acquire, develop or commercialize new products and equipment;

●

intellectual property claims brought by third parties; and

●

the impact of any industry regulation.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, or performance. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes in the future operating results over time except as required by law. We believe that our assumptions are based upon reasonable data derived from and known about our business and operations. No assurances are made that actual results of operations or the results of our future activities will not differ materially from our assumptions.

As used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and unless otherwise indicated, the terms “GDSI,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Global Digital Solutions, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiaries GDSI Florida, LLC and North American Custom Specialty Vehicles, Inc. Unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars.

Corporate History

We were incorporated in New Jersey as Creative Beauty Supply, Inc. (“Creative”) in August 1995. In March 2004, Creative acquired Global Digital Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation. The merger was treated as a recapitalization of Global Digital Solutions, Inc., and Creative changed its name to Global Digital Solutions, Inc. (“GDSI”). We are focused in the area of cyber arms technology and complementary security and technology solutions. On October 22, 2012, we entered into an Agreement of Merger and Plan of Reorganization to acquire 70% of Airtronic USA, Inc. (“Airtronic”), a then debtor in possession under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code once Airtronic successfully reorganized and emerged from bankruptcy (the “Merger”). During the period from October 2012 through November 2013, we were actively involved in the day to day management of Airtronic pending the completion of the Merger. The Merger did not occur and we ceased involvement with the Airtronic. In December 2012 we incorporated GDSI Florida LLC (“GDSI FL”), a Florida limited liability company. Except for the payment of administrative expenses on behalf of the Company, GDSI FL has no business operations. In January 2013 we incorporated Global Digital Solutions, LLC, a Florida limited liability company. In November 2013, we incorporated GDSI Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation. On June 16, 2014, we acquired North American Custom Specialty Vehicles, LLC into GDSI Acquisition Corporation, and changed the latter’s name to North American Custom Specialty Vehicles, Inc. (“NACSV”). In July 2014, we announced the formation of GDSI International (f/k/a Global Digital Solutions, LLC) to spearhead our efforts overseas.

Business Overview

Global Digital Solutions Inc. is positioning itself as a leader in providing comprehensive security and technology solutions. Since May 1, 2012, we have been focusing on acquisitions of defense and defense-related entities both in the United States and abroad.On June 16, 2014 GDSI completed its acquisition of North American Custom Specialty Vehicles (“NACSV”). NACSV’s mobile emergency operations centers (MEOC) can be tailored to the needs of Police, Fire, EMS, Military, Homeland Security, National Guard, FBI, Air National Guard Coast Guard, Chemical/Petrochemical, Humanitarian Aid, Non-Governmental Organizations, Drug Enforcement, Immigration & Customs, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, Water Management, Wildlife Management, D.O.T. Engineering & Maintenance, Air & Water Quality Management (EPA), Meteorological Seismic/Oil & Gas Exploration, IS/Mapping Power Generation (Nuclear & Conventional), Power Transmission and Strategic Infrastructure Security. The company has already built customized vehicles for customers involved in one or more of the above categories and we see many opportunities to improve NACSV and its products and services through the integration of additional software, hardware and firmware technologies.

We are a holding company focused on the acquisition of companies in the security and specialty vehicles and services marketplace segments. We intend to pursue these identified segments in order to expand the Company through strategic acquisitions and the controlled internal growth of such acquisitions. Since the filing of our Form 10-Q for the third quarter of 2015, as filed with the Securities & Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 6, 2015, we have been delinquent in filing of our financial reports with the SEC pursuant to The Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Since that time, the focus of our business has evolved, and the below discussion is intended to show the chronology since that time to the date of the filing of this report.

History of Business – September 30, 2015 to Present

On May 13, 2016, as more fully discussed below, we appointed William Delgado as our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chairman of our Board of Directors, Mr. Delgado was serving at that time as a director and our Executive Vice President in charge of our business development. He served as our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer from August 2004 to August 2013. Mr. Delgado began his career with Pacific Telephone in the Outside Plant Construction. He moved to the network engineering group and concluded his career at Pacific Bell as the Chief Budget Analyst for the Northern California region. Mr. Delgado founded All Star Telecom in late 1991, specializing in OSP construction and engineering and systems cabling. All Star Telecom was sold to International Fiber Com in April of 1999. After leaving International Fiber Com in 2002, Mr. Delgado became President/CEO of Pacific Comtel in San Diego, California. After we acquired Pacific Comtel in 2004, he became part of our management and held the positions of director, CEO, President and CFO.

Events Since September 30, 2015

The following are events that have occurred since September 30, 2015:

Revenue Based Factoring Agreements Dated October 1, 2015 and October 23, 2015

On October 1, 2015, NACSV entered into a Revenue Based Factoring Agreement (the “Factoring Agreement”) with Power Up Lending Group, Ltd. (“Power Up”). The Factoring Agreement was guaranteed by us under the terms of a Security Agreement and Guaranty. Under the terms of the Factoring Agreement, NACSV, as Merchant, agreed to transfer to Power Up in consideration of the purchase price of $59,000, all of the Merchant’s future receipts, accounts, contract rights and other obligations arising from or relating to the payment of monies from Merchant’s customers and/or other third party payors (collectively the receipts) at the specified percentage of 24% until such time as a total of $76,700 is repaid. A specified daily repayment amount of $457 was required to be made to Power Up as a base payment to be credited against the specified percentage due. The Factoring Agreement had an indefinite term that was to last until all of the Merchant’s obligations to Power Up were fully satisfied. We used the purchase price proceeds to satisfy in full the obligations that were outstanding at the time.

On October 23, 2015, NACSV entered into a Revenue Based Factoring Agreement (the “Second Factoring Agreement”) with Power Up on terms similar to the Factoring Agreement, except that under the Second Factoring Agreement, the purchase price was $50,000 and the specified daily repayment amount was $548.

Share Purchase and Sale Agreement for Acquisition of Grupo Rontan Electro Metalurgica, S.A.

Effective October 13, 2015, the Company (as “Purchaser”) entered into the SPSA dated October 8, 2015 with Joao Alberto Bolzan and Jose Carlos Bolzan, both Brazilian residents (collectively, the “Sellers”), and Grupo Rontan Electro Metalurgica, S.A., a limited liability company duly organized and existing under the laws of Federative Republic of Brazil (“Rontan”) (collectively, the “Parties”), pursuant to which the Sellers agreed to sell 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Rontan to the Purchaser on the closing date (the “Rontan Transaction”).

The purchase price consisted of a cash amount, a stock amount and an earn-out amount as follows: (i) Brazilian Real (“R”) $100 million (approximately US$26 million) to be paid by the Purchaser in equal monthly installments over a period of forty eight (48) months following the closing date; (ii) an aggregate of R$100 million (approximately US$26 million) in shares of the Purchaser’s common stock, valued at US$1.00 per share; and (iii) an earn-out payable within ten business days following receipt by the Purchaser of Rontan’s audited financial statements for the 12-months ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019. The earn-out shall be equal to the product of (i) Rontan’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) for the last 12 months, and (ii) twenty percent and is contingent upon Rontan’s EBITDA results for any earn-out period being at least 125% of Rontan’s EBITDA for the 12 months ended December 31, 2015. It is the intention of the parties that the stock amount will be used by Rontan to repay institutional debt outstanding as of the closing date.

Under the terms of a finder’s fee Agreement dated April 14, 2014, we have agreed to pay RLT Consulting Inc., a related party, a fee of 2% (two percent) of the transaction value, as defined in the agreement, of Rontan upon closing. The fee is payable one-half in cash and one-half in shares of our common stock. Specific conditions to closing consist of:

a.       

Purchaser’s receipt of written limited assurance of an unqualified opinion with respect to Rontan’s audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2014 (the “Opinion”);

b.        

The commitment of sufficient investment by General American Capital Partners LLC (the “Institutional Investor”), in the Purchaser following receipt of the Opinion;

c.       

The accuracy of each parties’ representations and warranties contained in the SPSA;

d.        

The continued operation of Rontan’s business in the ordinary course;

6

e.

The maintenance of all of Rontan’s bank credit lines in the maximum amount of R$200 million (approximately US$52 million) under the same terms and conditions originally agreed with any such financial institutions, and the maintenance of all other types of funding arrangements. As of the date of the SPSA, Rontan’s financial institution debt consists of not more than R$200 million (approximately US$52 million), trade debt of not more than R$50 million (approximately US$13 million) and other fiscal contingencies of not more that R$95 million (approximately US$24.7 million);

f.        

Rontan shall enter into employment or consulting service agreements with key employees and advisors identified by the Purchaser, including Rontan’s Chief Executive Officer; and

g.        

The Sellers continued guarantee of Rontan’s bank debt for a period of 90 days following issuance of the Opinion, among other items.

The Institutional Investor has committed to invest sufficient capital to facilitate the transaction, subject to receipt of the Opinion, among other conditions. Subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent provided for in the SPSA, the closing date of the transaction shall take place within 10 business days from the date of issuance of the Opinion. Rontan is engaged in the manufacture and distribution of specialty vehicles and acoustic/visual signaling equipment for the industrial and automotive markets.

On April 1, 2016, we believed that we had satisfied or otherwise waived the conditions to closing (as disclosed under the SPSA, the closing was subject to specific conditions to closing, which were waivable by us), and on April 1, 2016, we advised the Sellers of our intention to close the SPSA and demanded delivery of the Rontan Securities. The Sellers, however, notified us that they intend to terminate the SPSA. We believe that the Sellers had no right to terminate the SPSA and that notice of termination by the Sellers was not permitted under the terms of the SPSA.

Officers and Directors

Effective May 13, 2016, we accepted the resignations of Richard J. Sullivan as our Chairman and CEO along with the resignations of Stephanie C. Sullivan and Arthur F. Noterman as directors.

Change in Independent Accounting Firm

Effective July 13, 2017, our Board of Directors dismissed the auditing firm of PMB Helin Donovan and subsequently engaged Turner Stone and Company, Dallas, TX. We had no issues relating to the performance of the PMB Helin Donovan audits or any disagreements with their accounting practices and decisions.

Settlements of Certain Liabilities

On August 30, 2017, we announced that we had reached tentative agreements with three creditors for repayment of liabilities and/or claims totaling approximately $491,574 as of August 15, 2017. This settlement included amounts due under the factoring agreements discussed above during the period from August 30, 2017 to December 31, 2017. We paid approximately $193,514 to settle these liabilities and/or claims.

On August 30, 2017, we finalized the settlement agreement reached between the parties regarding the litigation between John Ramsay, Carl Dekle, The Estate of Brian Dekle and us and NACSV, collectively, which had been previously disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2015. We made a payment of $20,000 in connection with the settlement.

Litigation

On January 31, 2018, we announced that we initiated a lawsuit for damages against Grupo Rontan Metalurgica, S. A, (“Rontan”), and that company’s controlling shareholders, Joao Alberto Bolzan and Jose Carlos Bolzan. We have engaged the law firm of Boies Schiller Flexner LLP to represent it in this action. The case will be handled by William Isaacson of the firm’s Washington office and Carlos Sires of the firm’s Fort Lauderdale office. The action has been filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida. The complaint alleges that Rontan is wholly owned by Joao Bolzan and Jose Bolzan. In the complaint, we further allege that Rontan and its shareholders improperly terminated a Share Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “SPA”) by which we were to acquire whole ownership of Rontan.

7

On February 5, 2018, United States District Court Southern District of Florida filed a Pretrial Scheduling Order and Order Referring Case to Mediation dated February 5, 2018 for the Company’s lawsuit against Grupo Rontan Electro Metalurgica, S.A., et al. The Case No. is 18-80106-Civ-Middlebrooks/Brannon. The case is set for trial before U.S. District Judge Middlebrooks. The court has issued a schedule outlining various documents and responses that are to be delivered by the parties as part of the discovery plan.

Financing Transactions

On February 2, 2018, we announced that we had secured $1.2 million in a non-convertible financing from a New York-based institution.

SEC Actions

On August 11, 2016, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filed suit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida against Global Digital Solutions, Inc. (“GDSI”), Richard J. Sullivan (“Sullivan”) and David A. Loppert (“Loppert”) to enjoin GDSI; Sullivan, GDSI’s former Chairman and CEO, and Loppert, GDSI’s former CFO, from alleged further violations of the anti-fraud and reporting provisions of the federal securities laws, and against Sullivan and Loppert from alleged further violations of the certification provisions of the federal securities laws.

On October 12, 2016, Defendant GDSI filed its First Answer to the Complaint. On November 9, 2016, Defendant Sullivan filed a Letter with the Court denying all allegations regarding the case. On December 15, 2016, the SEC filed a Motion for Judgment and Notice of Filing of Consent of Defendant Loppert to entry of Final Judgment by the SEC. On December 19, 2016, the Court entered an order granting the SEC’s Motion for Judgment as to Defendant Loppert. On December 21, 2016, the SEC filed a Notice of Settlement as entered into by it and Defendants GDSI and Sullivan. On December 23, 2016, the Court entered an Order staying the case and directing the Clerk of the Court to close the case for statistical purposes per the December 21, 2016 Notice of Settlement. On March 7, 2017, the SEC moved for a Judgment of Permanent Injunction and Other Relief and Notice of Filing Consent of Defendant GDSI to Entry of Judgment by the SEC. On March 13, 2017, the Judge signed the Judgment as to Defendant GDSI and it was entered on the Court’s docket. On April 6, 2017, the SEC moved for a final Judgment of Permanent Injunction and Other Relief and Notice of Filing Consent of Defendant Sullivan. On April 10, 2017, the Judge signed the final Judgment as to Defendant Sullivan and it was entered on the Court’s docket. On December 21, 2017, the SEC moved for a final Judgment and Notice of Filing Consent of Defendant GDSI to Entry of Final Judgment. On January 2, 2018, the Judge signed the Final Judgment as to Defendant GDSI and it was entered on the Court’s docket.

Liquidity

Our cash position is critically deficient, and payments essential to our ability to operate are not being made in the ordinary course. Failure to raise capital to fund our operations and failure to generate positive cash flow to fund such operations in the future will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Business Strategy – As of the Date of This Filing

As of the date of this filing, our business continues to be through our NACSV subsidiary and the production of mobile command centers. Our future strategy is to expand into the infrastructure technology and cybersecurity areas. We will look to acquire companies in these respective areas, focusing on companies that have the ability to utilize blockchain technology in their respective operations.

Target Markets, Sales and Marketing

Our target market will be primarily in North America, with a concentration in the USA and Canada. We expect that sales and marketing will utilize the company’s existing strategies, augmented by a sales force developed by the parent company in conjunction with the acquired subsidiary.

8

Competition

The Company is and will continue to be an insignificant participant in the business of seeking mergers with, joint ventures with and acquisitions of other entities. A large number of established and well-financed entities, including venture capital firms, private equity firms and family offices, are active in mergers and acquisitions of companies that may be desirable target candidates for the Company. Nearly all such entities have significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and managerial capabilities than the Company, and, consequently, the Company will be at a competitive disadvantage in identifying possible business opportunities and successfully completing a business combination. Moreover, the Company will also compete in seeking merger or acquisition candidates with numerous other small public companies.

Research and Development

We have not incurred any research and development expense.

Intellectual Property

We currently do not have any intellectual property.

Government Approvals and Regulations

We do not expect to encounter any significant governmental approval or regulation issues, as we do not intend to monopolize any target business areas. We do expect to be subject to the traditional government regulation related to business licenses, foreign corporation rules, etc.

Subsidiaries

We currently have two subsidiaries including GSDI Florida, LLC and North American Custom Specialty Vehicles, Inc.

Employees

As of December 31, 2015, we had eight full-time employees and two part-time employees. We intend to hire additional staff and to engage consultants in general administration on an as-needed basis. We also intend to engage experts in operations, finance and general business to advise us in various capacities. None of our employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement, and we believe our relationship with our employees is good to excellent.

Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to continue to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified technical, marketing, and management personnel and, as of the end of the period covered by this report and as of the date of filing, we continue to rely on the services of independent contractors for much of our sales/marketing. We believe technical, accounting and other functions are also critical to our continued and future success.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in our public filings before making an investment decision with regard to our securities. The statements contained in or incorporated into this document that are not historic facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by forward-looking statements. If any of the following events described in these risk factors actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. Moreover, additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem less significant also may impact our business, financial condition or results of operations, perhaps materially. For additional information regarding risk factors, see Item 1 – “Forward-Looking Statements.”

Risks Related to Our Company

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We have not generated any profit from combined operations since our inception. We expect that our operating expenses will increase over the next twelve months to continue our development activities. Based on our average monthly expenses and current burn rate of $28,000 per month, we estimate that our cash on hand as of May 22, 2018 will not be able to support our operations through the balance of this calendar year. This amount could increase if we encounter difficulties that we cannot anticipate at this time or if we acquire other businesses. As of the date of this filing, we had cash of approximately $20,032. On February 2, 2018, we announced that we had secured $1.2 million in a non-convertible financing from a New York-based institution. Should this amount not be sufficient to support our continuing operations, we do not expect to be able to raise any additional capital through debt financing from traditional lending sources since we are not currently generating a profit from operations. Therefore, we only expect to raise money through equity financing via the sale of our common stock or equity-linked securities such as convertible debt. If we cannot raise the money that we need in order to continue to operate our business beyond the period indicated above, we will be forced to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of our proposed operations. If any of these were to occur, there is a substantial risk that our business would fail. If we are unsuccessful in raising additional financing, we may need to curtail, discontinue or cease operations.

We have limited operating history with our operating subsidiary, and as a result, we may experience losses and cannot assure you that we will be profitable.

We have a limited operating history with our single operating subsidiary, NACSV, on which to evaluate our business. Our operations are subject to all of the risks inherent in the establishment and expansion of a business enterprise. Accordingly, the likelihood of our success must be considered in the light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications, and delays frequently encountered in connection with the starting and expansion of a business and the relatively competitive environment in which we operate. Unanticipated delays, expenses and other problems such as setbacks in product development, product manufacturing, and market acceptance are frequently encountered in establishing a business such as ours. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in addressing such risks, and any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.

Because of our limited operating history with our operating subsidiary, we have limited historical financial data on which to base planned operating expenses. Accordingly, our expense levels, which are, to a large extent, variable, will be based in part on our expectations of future revenues. As a result of the variable nature of many of our expenses, we may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected delays in the development and marketing of our products or any subsequent revenue shortfall. Any such delays or shortfalls will have an immediate adverse impact on our business, operating results and financial condition.

We have not achieved profitability on a quarterly or annual basis to date. To the extent that net revenue does not grow at anticipated rates or that increases in our operating expenses precede or are not subsequently followed by commensurate increases in net revenue, or that we are unable to adjust operating expense levels accordingly, our business, results of operations and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected. There can be no assurance that our operating losses will not increase in the future or that we will ever achieve or sustain profitability.

No Assurance of Sustainable Revenues.

There can be no assurance that our subsidiaries will generate sufficient and sustainable revenues to enable us to operate at profitable levels or to generate positive cash flow. As a result of our limited operating history and the nature of the markets in which we compete, we may not be able to accurately predict our revenues. Any failure by us to accurately make such predictions could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Further, our current and future expense levels are based largely on our investment plans and estimates of future revenues. We expect operating results to fluctuate significantly in the future as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control. Factors that may adversely affect our operating results include, among others, demand for our products and services, the budgeting cycles of potential customers, lack of enforcement of or changes in governmental regulations or laws, the amount and timing of capital expenditures and other costs relating to the expansion of our operations, the introduction of new or enhanced products and services by us or our competitors, the timing and number of new hires, changes in our pricing policy or those of our competitors, the mix of products, increases in the cost of raw materials, technical difficulties with the products, incurrence of costs relating to future acquisitions, general economic conditions, and market acceptance of our products. As a strategic response to changes in the competitive environment, we may, from time to time, make certain pricing, service or marketing decisions or business combinations that could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Any seasonality is likely to cause quarterly fluctuations in our operating results, and there can be no assurance that such patterns will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall.

10

We may need to raise additional funds in the future that may not be available on acceptable terms or at all.

We may consider issuing additional debt or equity securities in the future to fund our business plan, for potential acquisitions or investments, or for general corporate purposes. If we issue equity or convertible debt securities to raise additional funds, our existing stockholders may experience dilution, and the new equity or debt securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our existing stockholders. If we incur additional debt, it may increase our leverage relative to our earnings or to our equity capitalization, requiring us to pay additional interest expenses. We may not be able to obtain financing on favorable terms, or at all, in which case, we may not be able to develop or enhance our products, execute our business plan, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures.

A major part of our business strategy is to pursue strategic acquisitions, although we may not be able to identify businesses that we can acquire on acceptable terms or obtain the financing necessary to acquire them. We may face risks due to additional indebtedness and our acquisition strategy may incur significant costs or expose us to substantial risks inherent in the acquired business’s operations.

Our strategy of pursuing strategic acquisitions may be negatively impacted by several risks, including the following:

●

We may not successfully identify companies that have complementary product lines or technological competencies or that can diversify our revenue or enhance our ability to implement our business strategy.

●

We may not successfully acquire companies if we fail to obtain financing or negotiate the acquisition on acceptable terms, or for other related reasons.

●

We may incur additional expenses due to acquisition due diligence, including legal, accounting, consulting and other professional fees and disbursements. Such additional expenses may be material, will likely not be reimbursed and would increase the aggregate cost of any acquisition.

●

Any acquired business will expose us to the acquired company’s liabilities and to risks inherent to its industry, and we may not be able to ascertain or assess all of the significant risks.

●

We may require additional financing in connection with any future acquisition, and such financing may adversely impact, or be restricted by, our capital structure.

●

Achieving the anticipated potential benefits of a strategic acquisition will depend in part on the successful integration of the operations, administrative infrastructures and personnel of the acquired company or companies in a timely and efficient manner. Some of the challenges involved in such an integration include: (i) demonstrating to the customers of the acquired company that the consolidation will not result in adverse changes in quality, customer service standards or business focus; (ii) preserving important relationships of the acquired company; (iii) coordinating sales and marketing efforts to effectively communicate the expanded capabilities of the combined company; and (iv) coordinating the supply chains.

Any future acquisitions could disrupt business.

If we are successful in consummating acquisitions, those acquisitions could subject us to a number of risks, including:

●

the purchase price we pay could significantly deplete our cash reserves or result in dilution to our existing stockholders;

●

we may find that the acquired company or assets do not improve our customer offerings or market position as planned;

●

we may have difficulty integrating the operations and personnel of the acquired company;

●

key personnel and customers of the acquired company may terminate their relationships with the acquired company as a result of the acquisition;

●

we may experience additional financial and accounting challenges and complexities in areas such as tax planning and financial reporting;

●

we may assume or be held liable for risks and liabilities as a result of our acquisitions, some of which we may not discover during our due diligence or adequately adjust for in our acquisition arrangements;

11

●

we may incur one-time write-offs or restructuring charges in connection with the acquisition;

●

we may acquire goodwill and other intangible assets that are subject to amortization or impairment tests, which could result in future charges to earnings; and

●

we may not be able to realize the cost savings or other financial benefits we anticipated.

These factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

Our business is at risk if we lose key personnel or we are unable to attract and integrate additional skilled personnel.

The success of our business depends, in large part, on the skill of our personnel. Accordingly, it is critical that we maintain, and continue to build, a highly experienced management team and specialized workforce, including engineers, experts in project management and business development, and sales professionals. Competition for personnel, particularly those with expertise in the specialty vehicle industry and, as we expect, in the industries of any future acquisition targets, is high, and identifying candidates with the appropriate qualifications can be difficult. We may not be able to hire the necessary personnel to implement our business strategy given our anticipated hiring needs, or we may need to provide higher compensation or more training to our personnel than we currently anticipate.

In the event, we are unable to attract, hire and retain the requisite personnel and subcontractors, we may experience delays in growing our business plan in accordance with project schedules and budgets, which may have an adverse effect on our financial results, harm our reputation and cause us to curtail our pursuit of new initiatives. Further, any increase in demand for personnel and specialty subcontractors may result in higher costs, causing us to exceed the budget on a project, which in turn may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results and harm our relationships with our customers.

Our future success is particularly dependent on the vision, skills, experience and effort of our senior management team, including our president and chief executive officer. If we were to lose the services of our president and chief executive officer or any of our key employees, our ability to effectively manage our operations and implement our strategy could be harmed and our business may suffer.

We may not be able to protect intellectual property that we hope to acquire, which could adversely affect our business.

The companies that we hope to acquire may rely on patent, trademark, trade secret and copyright protection to protect their technology. We believe that technological leadership can be achieved through additional factors such as the technological and creative skills of our personnel, new product developments, frequent product enhancements, name recognition and reliable product maintenance. Nevertheless, our ability to compete effectively depends in part on our ability to develop and maintain proprietary aspects of our technology, such as patents. We may not secure future patents; and patents that we may secure may become invalid or may not provide meaningful protection for our product innovations. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that competitors will not independently develop similar products, "reverse engineer" our products, or, if patents are issued to us, design around such patents. We also expect to rely upon a combination of copyright, trademark, trade secret and other intellectual property laws to protect our proprietary rights by entering into confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants and vendors, and by controlling access to and distribution of our technology, documentation and other proprietary information. There can be no assurance, however, that the steps to be taken by us will not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented, or that the rights granted thereunder will provide a competitive advantage to us. Any such circumstance could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. While we are not currently engaged in any intellectual property litigation or proceedings, there can be no assurance that we will not become so involved in the future or that our products do not infringe any intellectual property or other proprietary right of any third party. Such litigation could result in substantial costs or the diversion of resources and personnel, and subject us to significant liabilities to third parties, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

12

We may not be able to protect our trade names and domain names.

We may not be able to protect our trade names and domain names against all infringers, which could decrease the value of our brand name and proprietary rights. We currently hold the Internet domain names "www.gdsi.co" and “www.nacsvehicles.com” and we use “GDSI” and “NACS Vehicles” as trade names. Domain names generally are regulated by Internet regulatory bodies and are subject to change and may be superseded, in some cases, by laws, rules and regulations governing the registration of trade names and trademarks with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and certain other common law rights. If the domain registrars are changed, new ones are created or we are deemed to be infringing upon another's trade name or trademark, we could be unable to prevent third parties from acquiring or using, as the case may be, our domain name, trade names or trademarks, which could adversely affect our brand name and other proprietary rights.

We may be subject to liability claims for damages and other expenses not covered by insurance that could reduce our earnings and cash flows.

Our business, profitability and growth prospects could suffer if we pay damages or defense costs in connection with a liability claim that is outside the scope of any applicable insurance coverage. We intend to maintain, but do not yet have, general and product liability insurance. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain insurance in amounts, or for a price, that will permit us to purchase desired amounts of insurance. Additionally, if our costs of insurance and claims increase, then our earnings could decline. Further, market rates for insurance premiums and deductibles have been steadily increasing, which may prevent us from being adequately insured. A product liability or negligence action in excess of insurance coverage could harm our profitability and liquidity.

Insurance and contractual protections may not always cover lost revenue.

Although we possess insurance and warranties from suppliers, and our subcontractors make contractual obligations to meet certain performance levels, and we also attempt, where feasible, to pass risks we cannot control to our customers, the proceeds of such insurance, warranties, performance guarantees or risk sharing arrangements may not be adequate to cover lost revenue, increased expenses or liquidated damages payments that may be required in the future.

We currently carry customary insurance for business liability. For our work as a general contractor, we carry workers comp insurance for our employees and we have performance bonding insurance. Certain losses of a catastrophic nature such as from floods, tornadoes, thunderstorms and earthquakes are uninsurable or not economically insurable. Such “Acts of God,” work stoppages, regulatory actions or other causes, could interrupt operations and adversely affect our business.

We rely on outside consultants and employees.

We will rely on the experience of outside consultants and employees. In the event that one or more of these consultants or employees terminates employment with the Company, or becomes unavailable, suitable replacements will need to be retained and there is no assurance that such employees or consultants could be identified under conditions favorable to us.

Risks Related to NACSV’s Business

We may face strong competition from larger, established companies.

We likely will face intense competition from other companies that provide the same or similar custom specialty vehicle manufacturing and other services, virtually all of whom can be expected to have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger installed customer bases and significantly more financial resources, R&D facilities and manufacturing and marketing experience than we have. There can be no assurance that developments by our potential competitors will not render our existing and future products or services obsolete. In addition, we expect to face competition from new entrants into the custom specialty vehicle business. As the demand for products and services grows and new markets are exploited, we expect that competition will become more intense, as current and future competitors begin to offer an increasing number of diversified products and services. We may not have sufficient resources to maintain our research and development, marketing, sales and customer support efforts on a competitive basis. Additionally, we may not be able to make the technological advances necessary to maintain a competitive advantage with respect to our products and services. Increased competition could result in price reductions, fewer product orders, obsolete technology and reduced operating margins, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

13

If we are unable to keep up with technological developments, our business could be negatively affected.

The markets for our products and services are expected to be characterized by rapid technological change and be highly competitive with respect to timely innovations. Accordingly, we believe that our ability to succeed in the sale of our products and services will depend significantly upon the technological quality of our products and services relative to those of our competitors, and our ability to continue to develop and introduce new and enhanced products and services at competitive prices and in a timely and cost-effective manner. In order to develop such new products and services, we will depend upon close relationships with existing customers and our ability to continue to develop and introduce new and enhanced products and services at competitive prices and in a timely and cost-effective manner. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop and market our products and services successfully or respond effectively to technological changes or new product and service offerings of our potential competitors. We may not be able to develop the required technologies, products and services on a cost-effective and timely basis, and any inability to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We operate in a highly competitive industry and competitors may compete more effectively.

The industries in which we operate are highly competitive, with many companies of varying size and business models, many of which have their own proprietary technologies, competing for the same business as we do. Many of our competitors have longer operating histories and greater resources and could focus their substantial financial resources to develop a competing business model, develop products or services that are more attractive to potential customers than what we offer or convince our potential customers that they require financing arrangements that would be impractical for smaller companies to offer. Our competitors may also offer similar products and services at prices below cost and/or devote significant sales forces to competing with us or attempt to recruit our key personnel by increasing compensation, any of which could improve their competitive positions. Any of these competitive factors could make it more difficult for us to attract and retain customers, cause us to lower our prices in order to compete, and reduce our market share and revenue, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results. We can provide no assurance that we will continue to effectively compete against our current competitors or additional companies that may enter our markets. We also expect to encounter competition in the form of potential customers electing to develop solutions or perform services internally rather than engaging an outside provider such as us.

Operating results may fluctuate and may fall below expectations in any fiscal quarter.

Our operating results are difficult to predict and are expected to fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control. As a result, comparing our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful, and investors should not rely on our past results or future predictions prepared by the Company as an indication of our future performance. If our revenue or operating results fall in any period, the value of our common stock would likely decline.

Risks Related to Our Financial Condition

Dependence on financing and losses for the foreseeable future.

Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued its audit opinion on our consolidated financial statements appearing in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including an explanatory paragraph as to substantial doubt with the respect to our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, assuming we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, our net loss was $2,689,331. As of December 31, 2015, we had an accumulated deficit of $31,667,383 and a working capital deficit of $694,906. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise the required additional capital or debt financing to meet short- and long-term operating requirements. We may also encounter business endeavors that require significant cash commitments or unanticipated problems or expenses that could result in a requirement for additional cash. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our current shareholders could be reduced, and such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our operations. If we are unable to obtain the necessary capital, we may have to cease operations. For additional information, see Item 7 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – “Going Concern.”

14

Dependence on financing and losses for the foreseeable future.

As of December 31, 2015, we had current assets of $106,316 and current liabilities of $801,222. We had a working capital deficiency of $694,906. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising capital from financing transactions. To stay in business, we will need to raise additional capital through public or private sales of our securities or debt financing. In the past, we have financed our operations by issuing secured and unsecured convertible debt and equity securities in private placements, in some cases with equity incentives for the investor in the form of warrants to purchase our common stock and have borrowed from related parties. We have sought, and will continue to seek, various sources of financing. On February 2, 2018, we announced that we had secured $1.2 million in a non-convertible financing from a New York-based institution. There are no additional commitments from anyone to provide us with financing. We can provide no assurance as to whether our capital raising efforts will be successful or as to when, or if, we will be profitable in the future. Even if the Company achieves profitability, it may not be able to sustain such profitability. If we are unable to obtain financing or achieve and sustain profitability, we may have to suspend operations, sell assets and will not be able to execute our business plan. Failure to become and remain profitable may adversely affect the market price of our common stock and our ability to raise capital and continue operations.

Our ability to generate positive cash flows is uncertain.

To develop and expand our business, we will need to make significant up-front investments in our manufacturing capacity and incur research and development, sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses. In addition, our growth will require a significant investment in working capital. Our business will require significant amounts of working capital to meet our project requirements and support our growth. We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to raise the capital necessary to meet these requirements. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on satisfactory terms, we may be required to significantly curtail our operations and may not be able to fund our current production requirements - let alone fund expansion, take advantage of unanticipated acquisition opportunities, develop or enhance our products, or respond to competitive pressures. Any failure to obtain such additional financing could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Because we may never have net income from our operations, our business may fail.

We have no history of profitability from operations. There can be no assurance that we will ever operate profitably. Our success is significantly dependent on uncertain events, including successful development of our products, establishing satisfactory manufacturing arrangements and processes, and distributing and selling our products. If we are unable to generate significant revenues from sales of our products, we will not be able to earn profits or continue operations. We can provide no assurance that we will generate any revenues or ever achieve profitability. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will fail and investors may lose all of their investment in our Company.

We need to raise additional funds and such funds may not be available on acceptable terms or at all.

We may consider issuing additional debt or equity securities in the future to fund our business plan, for potential acquisitions or investments, or for general corporate purposes. If we issue equity or convertible debt securities to raise additional funds, our existing stockholders may experience dilution, and the new equity or debt securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our existing stockholders. If we incur additional debt, it may increase our leverage relative to our earnings or to our equity capitalization, requiring us to pay additional interest expenses. We may not be able to obtain financing on favorable terms, or at all, in which case, we may not be able to develop or enhance our products, execute our business plan, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock and Its Market Value

We have limited capitalization and may require financing, which may not be available.

We have limited capitalization, which increases our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, limits our flexibility in planning for or reacting to changes in our business and industry and may place us at a competitive disadvantage to competitors with sufficient or excess capitalization. If we are unable to obtain sufficient financing on satisfactory terms and conditions, we will be forced to curtail or abandon our plans or operations. Our ability to obtain financing will depend upon a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control.

A limited public trading market exists for our common stock, which makes it more difficult for our stockholders to sell their common stock in the public markets. Any trading in our shares may have a significant effect on our stock prices.

Although our common stock is listed for quotation on the OTC Marketplace, Pink Tier, under the symbol “GDSI”, the trading activity of our common stock is volatile and may not develop or be sustained. As a result, any trading price of our common stock may not be an accurate indicator of the valuation of our common stock. Any trading in our shares could have a significant effect on our stock price. If a more liquid public market for our common stock does not develop, then investors may not be able to resell the shares of our common stock that they have purchased and may lose all of their investment. No assurance can be given that an active market will develop or that a stockholder will ever be able to liquidate its shares of common stock without considerable delay, if at all. Many brokerage firms may not be willing to effect transactions in the securities. Even if an investor finds a broker willing to effect a transaction in our securities, the combination of brokerage commissions, state transfer taxes, if any, and any other selling costs may exceed the selling price. Furthermore, our stock price may be impacted by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance. These market fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions, such as recessions, interest rates or international currency fluctuations may adversely affect the market price and liquidity of our common stock.

Our stock price has reflected a great deal of volatility, including a significant decrease over the past few years. The volatility may mean that, at times, our stockholders may be unable to resell their shares at or above the price at which they acquired them.

From January 1, 2015 through the date of this report, or May 31, 2018, the price per share of our common stock has ranged from a high of $0.18 to a low of $0.0007. The price of our common stock has been, and may continue to be, highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations. The market value of our common stock has declined in the past, in part, due to our operating performance as well as to conversions of dilutive debt instruments that we have issued to fund operations. In the future, broad market and industry factors may decrease the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. Recent declines in the market price of our common stock have and could continue to affect our access to capital, and may, if they continue, impact our ability to continue operations at the current level. In addition, any continuation of the recent declines in the price of our common stock may curtail investment opportunities presented to us, and negatively impact other aspects of our business, including our ability to raise the funds necessary to fund our operations. As a result of any such declines, many stockholders have been or may become unable to resell their shares at or above the price at which they acquired them.

The volatility of the market price of our common stock could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:

●

our stock being held by a small number of persons whose sales (or lack of sales) could result in positive or negative pricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;

●

actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly operating results;

●

changes in our earnings estimates;

●

our ability to obtain adequate working capital financing;

●

changes in market valuations of similar companies;

●

publication (or lack of publication) of research reports about us;

●

changes in applicable laws or regulations, court rulings, enforcement and legal actions;

●

loss of any strategic relationships;

●

additions or departures of key management personnel;

16

●

actions by our stockholders (including transactions in our shares);

●

speculation in the press or investment community;

●

increases in market interest rates, which may increase our cost of capital;

●

changes in our industry;

●

competitive pricing pressures;

●

our ability to execute our business plan; and

●

economic and other external factors.

In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Our common stock may never be listed on a national exchange and is subject to being removed from the OTC Pink Marketplace.

Our common stock is quoted for trading on the OTC Pink Marketplace (“OTC Pink”). On December 26, 2017, the Securities and Exchange Commission instituted public administrative proceedings pursuant to Section 12(j) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) against the Respondent Global Digital Solutions, Inc. On January 8, 2018, Respondent Global Digital Solutions, Inc. (“GDSI”) filed its answer to the allegations contained in the Order Instituting Administrative Proceedings and Notice of Hearing Pursuant to Section 12U) of the Exchange Act. A briefing schedule was entered into and on February 15, 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission filed a motion for an order of summary disposition against Respondent GDSI on the grounds that there is no genuine issue with regard to any material fact, the Division was entitled as a matter of law to an order revoking each class of GDSI's securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act. Respondent GDSI opposed the Securities and Exchange Commission’s motion on the grounds that there were material issues of fact. The Securities and Exchange Commission replied and a hearing was held on April 9, 2018. The Administrative Law Judge ordered supplemental evidence and briefing on the issues of material fact. In the event that we are able to file the required reports with the SEC to be current under the Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), we still will be unable to list our stock on the OTCQB since the price of our stock is below $0.01, and we do not meet the eligibility standards for listing under the OTCQB per OTC Markets guidelines. Should we continue to fail to satisfy the eligibility standards of OTC Markets for the OTCQB, the trading price of our common stock could continue to suffer and the trading market for our common stock may be less liquid and our common stock price may be subject to increased volatility.

Our stock is categorized as a penny stock. Trading of our stock may be restricted by the SEC’s penny stock regulations which may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

Our stock is categorized as a “penny stock”, as that term is defined in SEC Rule 3a51-1, which generally provides that “penny stock”, is any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than US$5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, including Rule 15g-9, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities and reduces the number of potential investors. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.

17

According to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for “penny stocks” has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include: (1) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (2) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (3) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (4) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (5) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses. The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the future volatility of our share price.

FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

To date, we have not paid any cash dividends and no cash dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future.

We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future and we may not have sufficient funds legally available to pay dividends. Even if the funds are legally available for distribution, we may nevertheless decide not to pay any dividends. We presently intend to retain all earnings for our operations.

If we fail to develop or maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent financial fraud. As a result, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting.

We are subject to the risk that sometime in the future, our independent registered public accounting firm could communicate to the board of directors that we have deficiencies in our internal control structure that they consider to be “significant deficiencies.” A “significant deficiency” is defined as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal controls over financial reporting such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented or detected by the entity’s internal controls.

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, we could be subject to regulatory action or other litigation and our operating results could be harmed. We are required to document and test our internal control procedures to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act” or “SOX”), which requires our management to annually assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

We currently are not an “accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”) requires us to include an internal control report with our Annual Report on Form 10-K. That report must include management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the fiscal year. This report must also include disclosure of any material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that we have identified. As of December 31, 2015, the management of the Company assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Management concluded, during the year ended December 31, 2015, that the Company’s internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of U.S. GAAP rules. Management realized there were deficiencies in the design or operation of the Company’s internal control that adversely affected the Company’s internal controls which management considers to be material weaknesses. A material weakness in the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting could result in an increased chance of fraud and the loss of customers, reduce our ability to obtain financing and require additional expenditures to comply with these requirements, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. For additional information, see Item 9A – Controls and Procedures.

18

It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures. If we are unable to comply with the internal controls requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, then we may not be able to obtain the independent accountant certifications required by such act, which may preclude us from keeping our filings with the SEC current.

If we are unable to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, as those standards are modified, supplemented, or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could cause us to face regulatory action and cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, either of which could adversely affect the value of our common stock.

Because our current directors, executive officers beneficially hold 47.5% of our common stock, they can exert significant control over our business and affairs and have actual or potential interests that may depart from those of subscribers in our private placements.

Our current directors, executive officers and 5% or more stockholders beneficially own or control approximately 47.5% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of May 30, 2018. Additionally, the holdings of our directors and executive officers preferred stock holders may increase in the future upon vesting or other maturation of exercise rights under any of the restricted stock grants, options or warrants they may hold or in the future be granted or if they otherwise acquire additional shares of our common stock. The interests of such persons may differ from the interests of our other stockholders. As a result, in addition to their board seats and offices, such persons may have significant influence over and may control corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, irrespective of how the Company's other stockholders may vote, including the following actions:

●to elect or defeat the election of our directors;

●to amend or prevent amendment of our Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws;

●to effect or prevent a transaction, sale of assets or other corporate transaction; and

●to control the outcome of any other matter submitted to our stockholders for vote.

Such persons' stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of the Company, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over our stock price.

Exercise of options and warrants and conversion rights under convertible notes and preferred stock would have a dilutive effect on our common stock.

If the price per share of our common stock at the time of exercise of any options, warrants or any other convertible securities is in excess of the various exercise or conversion prices of such convertible securities, exercise or conversion of such convertible securities would have a dilutive effect on our common stock. As of December 31, 2015, we had: (a) outstanding options to acquire shares our common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.006 to $0.14 for 12,100,000 options, and an exercise price of $0.64 per share for 4.0 million options, (b) warrants to acquire 2,500,000 shares of our common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.15 to $1.00, and (c) convertible debt and accrued interest of $126,133 convertible into 28,666,591 shares of our common stock at $0.0044 per share. The number of shares and the conversion price for the convertible debt is subject to change based on changes in the price of our common stock. Further, any additional financing that we secure may require the granting of rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of our common stock and which result in additional dilution of the existing ownership interests of our common stockholders

19

Our certificate of incorporation allows for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders, which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.

Our board of directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our board of directors also has the authority to issue preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders a preferred right to our assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to the redemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into our common stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is plaintiff or defendant in the following actions:

 

Dekle, et. al. v. Global Digital Solutions, Inc. et. al.

Brian A. Dekle and John Ramsay filed suit against the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, North American Custom Specialty Vehicles, Inc. (“NACSV”), in the Circuit Court of Baldwin Alabama, on January 14, 2015, case no. 05-CV-2015-9000050.00, relating to our acquisition of NACSV (the ''Dekle Action"). Prior to instituting the Dekle Action, in June 2014, the Company had entered into an equity purchase agreement with Dekle and Ramsay to purchase their membership interest in North American Custom Specialty Vehicles, LLC. The Dekle Action originally sought payment for $300,000 in post-closing consideration Dekle and Ramsay allege they are owed pursuant to the equity purchase agreement.

On February 9, 2015, the Company and NACSV removed the Dekle Action to federal court in the United States District Court in and for the Southern District of Alabama, case no. 1:15-CV-00069. The Company and NACSV subsequently moved to dismiss the complaint for (1) failing to state a cause of action, and (2) lack of personal jurisdiction. Alternatively, the Company and NACSV sought a transfer of the case to the United States District Court in and for Middle District of Florida.

In response to the Company’s and NACSV's motion to dismiss, Dekle and Ramsay filed an amended complaint on March 2, 2015 seeking specific performance and alleging breach of contract, violations of Security and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Rule 10b-5, and violations of the Alabama Securities Act.

On March 17, 2015, the Company, NACSV and Sullivan filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint seeking dismissal for failure to state valid causes of action, for lack of personal jurisdiction, or alternatively to transfer the case to the United States District Court in and for the Middle District of Florida.

On June 2, 2015, Dekle passed away.  On June 5, 2015, the Court denied the Company’s motion to transfer the case to Florida.   On June 10, 2015, the Company filed a motion to reconsider the Court’s denial of its motion to transfer the case to Florida. On September 30, 2105, the Court granted the Company’s Renewed Motion to Transfer Venue. The case was transferred to the Middle District of Florida, where it is currently pending.

On June 15, 2015, Ramsay filed a second amended complaint. On June 25, 2015, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint. The Company’s Motion to Dismiss was denied.

On July 27, 2017, the Company and Dekle and Ramsay came to a Settlement Agreement. The Company and the plaintiff came to the following agreements:

i.

Judgment is due to be entered against the Company in the amount of $300,000 if the sum of $20,000 as noted in iv below is not paid.

ii.

The Company grants the plaintiffs vehicles and trailers in connection to this proceeding.

On February 18, 2015 (i) defendants Communications Laboratories, Inc., ComLabs Global, LLC and Roland Lussier and (ii) defendant Wallace Bailey filed their respective motions to dismiss seeking, among other things, dismissal for failure to state valid causes of action, lumping and failure to post a non-resident bond. On February 26, 2015, defendants Dekle and Ramsay filed their motion to dismiss, or stay action, based on already existing litigation between the parties.

Business Overview

We were incorporated in New Jersey as Creative Beauty Supply, Inc. (“Creative”) in August 1995. In March 2004, Creative acquired Global Digital Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Global”). The merger was treated as a recapitalization of Global, and Creative changed its name to Global Digital Solutions, Inc. We are focused in the area of cyber arms technology and complementary security and technology solutions. From August 2012 through November 2013, we were actively involved in managing Airtronic USA, Inc. (“Airtronic”). Effective as of June 16, 2014, we acquired North American Custom Specialty Vehicles (“NACSV”). The NACSV acquisition is more fully discussed below.

Significant Events During Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2015

Share Purchase and Sale Agreement for Acquisition of Grupo Rontan Electro Metalurgica, S.A.

Effective October 13, 2015, the Company (as “Purchaser”) entered into the SPSA dated October 8, 2015 with Joao Alberto Bolzan and Jose Carlos Bolzan, both Brazilian residents (collectively, the “Sellers”) and Grupo Rontan Electro Metalurgica, S.A., a limited liability company duly organized and existing under the laws of Federative Republic of Brazil (“Rontan”) (collectively, the “Parties”), pursuant to which the Sellers agreed to sell 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Rontan to the Purchaser on the closing date (the “Rontan Transaction”).

27

The purchase price consisted of a cash amount, a stock amount and an earn-out amount as follows: (i) Brazilian Real (“R”) $100 million (approximately US$26 million) to be paid by the Purchaser in equal monthly installments over a period of forty eight (48) months following the closing date; (ii) an aggregate of R$100 million (approximately US$26 million) in shares of the Purchaser’s common stock, valued at US$1.00 per share; and (iii) an earn-out payable within ten business days following receipt by the Purchaser of Rontan’s audited financial statements for the 12-months ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019. The earn-out shall be equal to the product of (i) Rontan’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) for the last 12 months, and (ii) twenty percent and is contingent upon Rontan’s EBITDA results for any earn-out period being at least 125% of Rontan’s EBITDA for the 12-months ended December 31, 2015. It is the intention of the parties that the stock amount will be used by Rontan to repay institutional debt outstanding as of the closing date.

Under the terms of a finder’s fee Agreement dated April 14, 2014, we have agreed to pay RLT Consulting Inc., a related party, a fee of 2% (two percent) of the transaction value, as defined in the agreement, of Rontan upon closing. The fee is payable one-half in cash and one-half in shares of our common stock. Specific conditions to closing consist of:

a.)

Purchaser’s receipt of written limited assurance of an unqualified opinion with respect to Rontan’s audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2014 (the “Opinion”);

b.)

The commitment of sufficient investment by General American Capital Partners LLC (the “Institutional Investor”), in the Purchaser following receipt of the Opinion;

c.)

The accuracy of each parties’ representations and warranties contained in the SPSA;

d.)

The continued operation of Rontan’s business in the ordinary course;

e.)

The maintenance of all of Rontan’s bank credit lines in the maximum amount of R$200 million (approximately US$52 million) under the same terms and conditions originally agreed with any such financial institutions, and the maintenance of all other types of funding arrangements. As of the date of the SPSA, Rontan’s financial institution debt consists of not more than R$200 million (approximately US$52 million), trade debt of not more than R$50 million (approximately US$13 million) and other fiscal contingencies of not more that R$95 million (approximately US$24.7 million);

f.)

Rontan shall enter into employment or consulting service agreements with key employees and advisors identified by the Purchaser, including Rontan’s Chief Executive Officer; and

g.)

The Sellers continued guarantee of Rontan’s bank debt for a period of 90 days following issuance of the Opinion, among other items.

The Institutional Investor has committed to invest sufficient capital to facilitate the transaction, subject to receipt of the Opinion, among other conditions. Subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent provided for in the SPSA, the closing date of the transaction shall take place within 10 business days from the date of issuance of the Opinion. Rontan is engaged in the manufacture and distribution of specialty vehicles and acoustic/visual signaling equipment for the industrial and automotive markets.

On April 1, 2016, we believed that we had satisfied or otherwise waived the conditions to closing (as disclosed under the SPSA, the closing was subject to specific conditions to closing, which were waivable by us,) and on April 1, 2016, we advised the Sellers of our intention to close the SPSA and demanded delivery of the Rontan Securities. The Sellers, however, notified us that they intend to terminate the SPSA. We believe that the Sellers had no right to terminate the SPSA and that notice of termination by the Sellers was not permitted under the terms of the SPSA.

Revenues and Gross Margins

Revenues decreased by $53,444, or 8%, from the prior year as a result of the scaling down of operations towards the end of 2015.

Gross profit increased by $255,015, or 130%, mostly due to a decrease in direct labor costs from 2014 to 2015.

29

Operating Loss

Loss from operations for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $2,689,331 and $12,116,848, respectively. The decrease in operating loss is primarily due to a decrease in stock compensation expenses and the write-off of the intangible asset associated with NACSV customer lists.

Liquidity, Financial Condition and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2015, we had cash on hand of $2,944 and a working capital deficiency of $694,906 as compared to cash on hand of $160,102 and a working capital deficiency of $264,469 as of December 31, 2014.

Going Concern

The audited consolidated financial statements contained in this annual report on Form 10-K have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has accumulated losses from inception through the period ended December 31, 2015 of $31,667,383, as well as negative cash flows from operating activities. As of the balance sheet date, the Company did not have sufficient cash resources through 2016. Furthermore, as of the date of this filing, the Company does not have sufficient cash resources to meet its plans through December 31, 2018.

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability. If the Company raises additional funds through the issuance of equity, the percentage ownership of current shareholders could be reduced, and such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to the rights, preferences and privileges of the Company’s common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, the Company may not be able to take advantage of prospective business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict its future plans for developing its business and achieving commercial revenues. If the Company is unable to obtain the necessary capital, the Company may have to cease operations.

	December 31,
	2015	2014
Current Assets	$106,316	$313,799
Current Liabilities	801,222	578,268
Working capital	$(694,906)	$264,469

The decrease in current assets from 2014 to 2015 is due to a decrease in cash, accounts receivable and inventory offset by increases in prepaid expenses . The increase in current liabilities is mainly due to an increase in accounts payable.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. We believe that the accounting policies below are critical for one to fully understand and evaluate our financial condition and results of operations.

Recent Accounting Standards

During the year ended December 31, 2015 and through the date of this filing, there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recently Announced Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606, or ASU 2014-09. ASU 2014-09 establishes the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP. The standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. In applying the new revenue recognition model to contracts with customers, an entity: (1) identifies the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identifies the performance obligations in the contract(s); (3) determines the transaction price; (4) allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract(s); and (5) recognizes revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The accounting standards update applies to all contracts with customers except those that are within the scope of other topics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The accounting standards update also requires significantly expanded quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the implementation of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, or ASU 2014-15. ASU 2014-15 will explicitly require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosure in certain circumstances. The new standard will be effective for all entities in the first annual period ending after December 15, 2016. Earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is not early adopting ASU 2014-15. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the implementation of ASU 2014-15 will have on the Company’s financial statements, and the actual impact will be dependent upon the Company’s liquidity and the nature or significance of future events or conditions that exist upon adopting the updated standard.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, or ASU 2015-03. Under ASU 2015-03, the costs of issuing debt will no longer be recorded as an intangible asset, except when incurred before receipt of the funding from the associated debt liability. Rather, debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability will be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability, similar to the presentation of debt discounts. The costs will continue to be amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method. ASU 2015-03 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2015-03 requires retrospective application to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-03 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05, Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement, or ASU 2015-05. ASU 2015-05 provides guidance to entities about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. Under ASU 2015-05, if a software cloud computing arrangement contains a software license, entities should account for the license element of the arrangement in a manner consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If the arrangement does not contain a software license, entities should account for the arrangement as a service contract. ASU 2015-05 also removes the requirement to analogize to ASC 840-10, to determine the asset acquired in a software licensing arrangement. For public companies, ASU 2015-05 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-05 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

33

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, or ASU 2015-17. ASU 2015-17 provides guidance on balance sheet classification of deferred taxes. The new guidance requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. For public companies, ASU 2015-17 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-17 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, or ASU 2016-02. The new guidance requires lessees to recognize the assets and liabilities arising from leases on the balance sheet. For public companies, ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our sole executive officer, William Delgado, who is our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer), of the effectiveness of the design of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined by Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e)) as of December 31, 2015 pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Executive and Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2015 in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. This conclusion is based on findings that constituted material weaknesses. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

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. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, which currently consists of William Delgado serving as our Chief Executive Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO” - 2013) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Our management concluded, as of December 31, 2015, that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective. Management realized there were deficiencies in the design or operation of the Company’s internal control that adversely affected the Company’s internal controls which management considers to be material weaknesses.

34

In performing the above-referenced assessment, management had concluded that as of December 31, 2015, there were deficiencies in the design or operation of our internal control that adversely affected our internal controls, which management considers to be material weaknesses, including those described below:

(i)Lack of Formal Policies and Procedures. We utilize a third party independent contractor for the preparation of our financial statements. Although the financial statements and footnotes are reviewed by our management, we do not have a formal policy to review significant accounting transactions and the accounting treatment of such transactions. The third party independent contractor is not involved in the day to day operations of the Company and may not be provided information from management on a timely basis to allow for adequate reporting/consideration of certain transactions.

(ii)Audit Committee and Financial Expert. We do not have a formal audit committee with a financial expert, and thus we lack the board oversight role within the financial reporting process.

(iii)Insufficient Resources. We have insufficient quantity of dedicated resources and experienced personnel involved in reviewing and designing internal controls. As a result, a material misstatement of the interim and annual financial statements could occur and not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

(iv)Entity Level Risk Assessment. We did not perform an entity level risk assessment to evaluate the implication of relevant risks on financial reporting, including the impact of potential fraud related risks and the risks related to non-routine transactions, if any, on internal control over financial reporting. Lack of an entity-level risk assessment constituted an internal control design deficiency which resulted in more than a remote likelihood that a material error would not have been prevented or detected, and constituted a material weakness.

Our management feels the weaknesses identified above have not had any material effect on our financial results. However, we are currently reviewing our disclosure controls and procedures related to these material weaknesses and expect to implement changes in the near term as resources permit, including identifying specific areas within our governance, accounting and financial reporting processes to add adequate resources to potentially mitigate these material weaknesses.

Our management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting. We believe that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within any company have been detected.

Committees of the Board

Our Board of Directors held no formal meeting in the year-ended December 31, 2015. Otherwise, all proceedings of the Board of Directors were conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by the sole director and filed with the minutes of the Company.

Board Nominations and Appointments

In considering whether to nominate any particular candidate for election to the Board of Directors, we will use various criteria to evaluate each candidate, including an evaluation of each candidate’s integrity, business acumen, knowledge of our business and industry, experience, diligence, conflicts of interest and the ability to act in the interests of our stockholders. The Board of Directors plans to evaluate biographical information and interview selected candidates in the next fiscal year and also plans to consider whether a potential nominee would satisfy the listing standards for “independence” of The Nasdaq Stock Market and the SEC’s definition of “audit committee financial expert.” The Board of Directors does not plan to assign specific weights to particular criteria and no particular criterion will be a prerequisite for each prospective nominee.

We do not have a formal policy with regard to the consideration of director candidates recommended by our stockholders, however, stockholder recommendations relating to director nominees may be submitted in accordance with the procedures set forth below under the heading “Communicating with the Board of Directors”.

Communicating with the Board of Directors

Stockholders who wish to send communications to the Board of Directors may do so by writing to 777 South Flagler Drive, Suite 800 West Tower, West Palm Beach, FL 33401. The mailing envelope must contain a clear notation indicating that the enclosed letter is a “Stockholder-Board Communication.” All such letters must identify the author as a stockholder and must include the stockholder’s full name, address and a valid telephone number. The name of any specific intended recipient should be noted in the communication. We will forward any such correspondence to the intended recipients; however, prior to forwarding any such correspondence, and we will review such correspondence, and in our discretion, may not forward communications that relate to ordinary business affairs, communications that are primarily commercial in nature, personal grievances or communications that relate to an improper or irrelevant topic or are otherwise inappropriate for the Board of Director’s consideration.

Compensation of Directors

We have no standard arrangement to compensate directors for their services in their capacity as directors. Directors are not paid for meetings attended. However, we intend to review and consider future proposals regarding board compensation. All travel and lodging expenses associated with corporate matters are reimbursed by us, if and when incurred.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

38

Code of Ethics

As part of our system of corporate governance, our Board of Directors has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code”) for directors and executive officers of the Company. This Code is intended to focus each director and executive officer on areas of ethical risk, provide guidance to directors and executive officer to help them recognize and deal with ethical issues, provide mechanisms to report unethical conduct, and help foster a culture of honesty and accountability. Each director and executive officer must comply with the letter and spirit of this Code. We have also adopted a Code of Ethics for Financial Executives applicable to our Chief Executive Officer and senior financial officers to promote honest and ethical conduct; full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure; and compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations. We intend to disclose any changes in or waivers from our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and our Code of Ethics for Financial Executives by filing a Form 8-K or by posting such information on our website.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock, to file reports regarding ownership of, and transactions in, our securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to provide us with copies of those filings.

Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that during the year ended December 31, 2015, none of our greater than 10% percent beneficial owners failed to comply on a timely basis with all applicable filing requirements under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.

2014 Equity Incentive Plan

The Plan is intended as an incentive, to retain in the employ of the Company, our directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors, and to attract new officers, employees, directors, consultants and advisors whose services are considered valuable, to encourage the sense of proprietorship and to stimulate the active interest of such persons in the development and financial success of the Company and its subsidiaries. Under the Plan, we are authorized to issue incentive stock options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, restricted stock and long term incentive awards.

The Company recognizes compensation expense on a pro rata straight-line basis over the requisite service period for stock-based compensation awards with both graded and cliff vesting terms. The Company recognizes the cumulative effect of a change in the number of awards expected to vest in compensation expense in the period of change. The Company has not capitalized any portion of its stock-based compensation.

Named Executive Officers and Current Directors

For information regarding compensation for our named executive officers and current directors, see “Executive Compensation.”

Director Independence

Our board of directors consists of one director, William J. Delgado. Our securities are quoted on the OTC Markets Group, Pink No Information Tier, which does not have any director independence requirements. We evaluate independence by the standards for director independence established by applicable laws, rules, and listing standards including, without limitation, the standards for independent directors established by The New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the NASDAQ National Market, and the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Subject to some exceptions, these standards generally provide that a director will not be independent if (a) the director is, or in the past three years has been, an employee of ours; (b) a member of the director’s immediate family is, or in the past three years has been, an executive officer of ours; (c) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family has received more than $120,000 per year in direct compensation from us other than for service as a director (or for a family member, as a non-executive employee); (d) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family is, or in the past three years has been, employed in a professional capacity by our independent public accountants, or has worked for such firm in any capacity on our audit; (e) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family is, or in the past three years has been, employed as an executive officer of a company where one of our executive officers serves on the compensation committee; or (f) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family is an executive officer of a company that makes payments to, or receives payments from, us in an amount which, in any twelve-month period during the past three years, exceeds the greater of $1,000,000 or two percent of that other company’s consolidated gross revenues. Based on these standards, we have determined that our director is not an independent director.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Stockholders

Global Digital Solutions, Inc.

West Palm Beach, Florida

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Global Digital Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, 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.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations since inception and has a working capital deficiency both of which 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 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE A - Restatement of Previously Reported Consolidated Financial Statements

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company determined that the Company’s previously issued financial statements for fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 as originally filed by prior auditors could no longer be relied upon without prior auditors workpapers to confirm the numbers. As a result, the Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this “Amendment”) to restate and amend the Company’s original Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 (the “Original Form 10-K”) to include this note and an explanation of the restatement of the 2014 numbers.

This Note A to the consolidated financial statements discloses the nature of the restatement matters and their impact on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014.

The “As Reported” amounts in the tables below represent the amounts reported in the Original 2014 Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 30, 2015.

The following errors in the Company’s annual financial statements were identified and corrected as part of the Restatement:

1. 

Accounts Receivable. The Company determined that an accounts receivable of NACSV in the amount of $300,000 was, in retrospect, uncollectible. The correction of this error resulted in a $300,000 reduction in revenues and accounts receivable and increased the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014 by $300,000.

2. 

Inventory. The Company determined that an additional $169,020 of inventory was, in retrospect, impaired. The correction of this error resulted in a $169,020 reduction in revenues and increased cost of revenue and the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014 by $169,020.

3. 

Intangible Assets. The Company determined that the Intangible Assets of $596,471 reflecting the customer list of the wholly owned subsidiary, NACSV was, in retrospect, impaired. The correction of this error resulted in a $596,471 reduction in intangible assets and increased operating expenses and the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014 by $596,471.

4. 

Additional Paid-In Capital. The Company determined that the expense for the issuance of restricted stock was overstated by $603,000. The correction of this error resulted in a $603,000 reduction in additional paid-in capital, operating expenses and the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014.

5. 

Goodwill Impairment Loss. The Company determined that the $1,156,192 goodwill impairment loss was improperly included in other expense (income) and should be included in operating expenses. The correction of this error resulted in a $1,156,192 reduction in other expense (income) and a $1,156,192 increase in operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2014. The correction had no impact on the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014.

GLOBAL DIGITAL SOLUTIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

We were incorporated in New Jersey as Creative Beauty Supply, Inc. (“Creative”) in August 1995. In March 2004, Creative acquired Global Digital Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Global”). The merger was treated as a recapitalization of Global, and Creative changed its name to Global Digital Solutions, Inc. ("the Company", "we"), Global provided structured cabling design, installation and maintenance for leading information technology companies, federal, state and local government, major businesses, educational institutions, and telecommunication companies. On May 1, 2012, we made the decision to wind down our operations in the telecommunications area and to refocus our efforts in the area of cyber arms technology and complementary security and technology solutions. From August 2012 through November 2013 we were actively involved in managing Airtronic USA, Inc., and effective as of June 16, 2014 we acquired North American Custom Specialty Vehicles (“NACSV”). In July 2014, we announced the formation of GDSI International (f/k/a Global Digital Solutions, LLC) to spearhead our efforts overseas. The Company has been dormant since December 31, 2015.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have sustained losses and experienced negative cash flows from operations since inception, and for the year ended December 31, 2015 we incurred a net loss of $2,689,331 and used net cash of $767,390 to fund operating activities. At December 31, 2015, we had cash and cash equivalents of $2,944, an accumulated deficit of $31,667,385, a working capital deficit of $964,987 and stockholders’ deficit of $957,651. We have funded our activities to date almost exclusively from equity and debt financings. For a more complete discussion, please refer to Note 17, subsequent events.

Our cash position is critically deficient, and payments essential to our ability to operate are not being made in the ordinary course. Failure to raise capital in the coming days to fund our operations and failure to generate positive cash flow to fund such operations in the future will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We are in default under the terms of our loan agreements, as more fully discussed in Note 8. We need to raise additional funds immediately and continue to raise funds until we begin to generate sufficient cash from operations, and we may not be able to obtain the necessary financing on acceptable terms, or at all.

We will continue to require substantial funds to continue development of our core business. Management’s plans in order to meet our operating cash flow requirements include financing activities such as private placements of common stock, and issuances of debt and convertible debt instruments, and the establishment of strategic relationships which we expect will lead to the generation of additional revenue or acquisition opportunities.

F-11

While we believe that we will be successful in obtaining the necessary financing to fund our operations, there are no assurances that such additional funding will be achieved or that we will succeed in our future operations. On February 2, 2018, we announced that we had secured $1.2 million in a non-convertible financing from a New York-based institution.

Our independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of our history of net losses. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon our ability to successfully execute the plans to pursue acquisitions, and raise the funds necessary to complete such acquisitions. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and our wholly owned subsidiaries, NACSV, GDSI Florida, LLC and Global Digital Solutions, LLC, dba GDSI International. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP in the United States of America, or U.S., requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on the knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results. Included in these estimates are assumptions used in; (i) determining the lives of long-lived assets; (ii) Black-Scholes-Merton, or BSM, valuation models used to estimate the fair value of stock-based compensation and warrants; (iii) determining the value of a promissory note with an embedded convertible option; (iv) the amount of beneficial conversion feature of convertible debt; (v) the liability for estimated contingent consideration payable and (vi) determining valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, among other items. 

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following conditions are satisfied: (1) there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement; (2) the product or service has been provided to the customer; (3) the amount paid by the customer is fixed or determinable; and (4) the collection of each amount is probable. The Company records revenue when it is realizable and earned upon shipment of the finished products or when the service has been provided.

Provision for Income Taxes

Income taxes are calculated based upon the asset and liability method of accounting. Deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard to allow for recognition of such an asset. In addition, realization of an uncertain income tax position must be estimated as “more likely than not” (i.e., greater than 50% likelihood of receiving a benefit) before it can be recognized in the financial statements. Further, the recognition of tax benefits recorded in the financial statements, if any, is based on the amount most likely to be realized assuming a review by tax authorities having all relevant information.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, cash and cash equivalents, consisting of cash in bank, were $2,944 and $160,102, respectively.

Accounts Receivable

We record accounts receivable at the invoiced amount and we do not charge interest. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to reserve for potentially uncollectible receivables. We review the accounts receivable by customers which are past due to identify specific customers with known disputes or collectability issues. In determining the amount of the reserve, we make judgments about the creditworthiness of significant customers based on ongoing credit evaluations. Allowance for doubtful accounts was $15,085 at December 31, 2014. We did not have an allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2015, due to a significant decrease in accounts receivable.

Prepaid expenses

Prepaid expenses consist primarily of prepaid insurance totaling $99,111 and $81,499 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which is amortized on a straight-line basis over the policy period.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying amounts of debt were also estimated to approximate fair value. The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurement). This fair value measurement framework applies at both initial and subsequent measurement.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined by ASC 820 are as follows:

● Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, as of the reporting date.

● Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

● Level 3 –Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by market data.

F-13

Convertible Notes With Conversion Options

We have entered into convertible notes with related parties that contain conversion options, whereby the outstanding principal and accrued interest may be converted, by the holder, into shares of our common stock at a price which represented a 30% discount to the price of our common stock at the time of issuance. We measure the fair value of the notes at the time of issuance, which is the result of the share price conversion discount, and record the discount (beneficial conversion feature) as a reduction of debt. We then accrete the discount as interest expense utilizing the effective interest rate method over the life of the debt.

Derivative Financial Instruments

During the year ended December 31, 2015, we issued convertible notes payable to third parties, which contain variable conversion options allowing the holders to convert the notes payable into shares of our common stock at discounts ranging from 39% to 40%. Each of these notes is more fully described in Note 8.

We account for these conversion options embedded in the convertible notes payable to third parties in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC’) 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Subtopic ASC 815-15, Embedded Derivatives generally requires companies to bifurcate conversion options embedded in the convertible notes from their host instruments and to account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. Derivative liabilities are recognized in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value as Derivative Liabilities and based on the criteria specified in FASB ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s own Equity. The estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities is calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model and such estimates are revalued at each balance sheet date, with changes recorded to other income or expense as Change in Fair Value – Derivatives in the consolidated statement of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or equity, is evaluated at the instrument origination date and reviewed at the end of each event date (i.e. conversions, payments, etc.) and the measurement period end date for financial reporting, as applicable. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified on the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument would be required within twelve months of the balance sheet date.

Convertible Securities

Based upon ASC 815-15, we have adopted a sequencing approach regarding the application of ASC 815-40 to convertible securities issued subsequent to December 31, 2014. We will evaluate our contracts based upon the earliest issuance date. In the event partial reclassification of contracts subject to ASC 815-40-25 is necessary, due to our inability to demonstrate we have sufficient shares authorized and unissued, shares will be allocated on the basis of issuance date, with the earliest issuance date receiving first allocation of shares. If a reclassification of an instrument were required, it would result in the instrument issued latest being reclassified first.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share (“EPS”)

Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS includes the effect from potential issuance of common stock, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants and the assumed conversion of convertible notes.

The following table summarizes the securities that were excluded from the diluted per share calculation because the effect of including these potential shares was antidilutive:

	Year ended December 31,
	2015	2014
Convertible notes and accrued interest	48,513,147	766,666
Stock options	16,100,000	5,840,000
Warrants	2,500,000	4,250,000
Vested but unissued restricted stock awards	375,000	2,187,503

Price protection	-	1,854,838
Potentially dilutive securities	68,488,147	14,899,007

F-14

Stock Based Compensation

We adopted the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, "Compensation – Stock Compensation”. Under the fair value recognition provisions, we are required to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for share-based compensation measured at the grant date fair value of the award.

The Company’s accounting policy for equity instruments issued to advisors, consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of FASB ASC 505-50. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the advisor, consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the advisor, consultant or vendor’s performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to advisors and consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the advisor or consulting agreement. Stock-based compensation related to non-employees is accounted for based on the fair value of the related stock or options or the fair value of the services, whichever is more readily determinable.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accounting principles, or GAAP in the United States of America, or U.S., requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on the knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results. Included in these estimates are assumptions used in: (i) determining the live of long-lived assets; (ii) Black-Scholes-Merton, or BSM, valuation modles used to estimate the fair value of stock-based compensation and warrants; (iii) determining the value of a promisory note with an embedded convertible option; (iv) the amount of beneficial conversion feature of convertible debt; (v) the liability for estimated contingent consideration payable and (vi) determining valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, among other items.

Contingent consideration for business acquisitions

Acquisitions may include contingent consideration payments based on future financial measures of an acquired company. Contingent consideration is required to be recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date. We estimate the fair value of these liabilities based on financial projections of the acquired companies and estimated probabilities of achievement. At each reporting date, the contingent consideration obligation is revalued to its estimated fair value and changes in fair value subsequent to the acquisition are reflected in income or expense in the consolidated statements of operations, and could cause a material impact to our operating results. Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration obligations may result from changes in discount periods and rates, changes in the timing and amount of revenue and/or earnings estimates and changes in probability assumptions with respect to the likelihood of achieving the various earn-out criteria

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Expenditures that enhance the useful lives of the assets are capitalized and depreciated. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When properties are retired or otherwise disposed of, related costs and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts.

A provision for depreciation of property and equipment is made on a basis considered adequate to amortize the related costs (net of salvage value) over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives are principally as follows: vehicles, 5 years; furniture and fixtures and office equipment, 5-10 years; leasehold improvements, term of lease or 15 years, whichever is less; machinery and equipment 5-10 years.

F-15

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value assigned to the net assets acquired in business combinations. Goodwill is allocated to reporting units as of the acquisition date for the purpose of goodwill impairment testing. Currently, we operate in only one reporting unit. Our goodwill arose from our acquisition of NACSV in June 2014, as more fully discussed in Note 3. Intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite life such as goodwill are not amortized, but instead are reviewed at least annually for impairment. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, other than goodwill in 2014, we had no intangible assets with indefinite lives. We tested our goodwill for impairment during the fourth quarter of 2014 as a part of our annual business planning cycle. Goodwill is also tested between testing dates if an impairment condition or event is determined to have occurred. As a result of our annual assessment in 2014, we determined that the implied value of our existing goodwill was nil and, therefore, we recorded a $1,156,192 goodwill impairment charge in the fourth quarter of 2014. In performing our assessment, we placed emphasis on the estimated future cash flows from NACSV’s operations, which had declined from our initial expectations in part due to recent changes in its senior management, changes in the customer base, and the reduction in the existing backlog of customer orders. We based our valuation on the income valuation approach using a discounted cash flow model.

At December 31, 2014, we had one other intangible asset consisting of customer relationships, which arose from our acquisition of NACSV and was being amortized over its expected economic life of five years. The life was determined based upon the expected use of the asset, and other contractual provisions associated with the asset, the estimated average life of NACSV’s products, the stability of the industry, and other factors deemed appropriate. We continually evaluated whether events or circumstances occurred that indicated the remaining estimated useful life of our customer relationships asset may warrant revision or that the remaining balance of such asset may not be recoverable. We used an estimate of the related discounted cash flows over the remaining life of the asset in measuring whether the asset is recoverable. Based on our valuation during the annual assessment of 2014, we determined that the value of the customer relationships was fully impaired, as more fully discussed in Note 5.

See Note 5 for more information regarding goodwill and intangible assets.

Deferred Financing Costs

Costs incurred in connection with obtaining financing are deferred and classified as a discount to the related loan and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related loan. The amortization of deferred financing costs is included in finance charges. The Company recognized $397,859 and $0 of expense related to the amortization of deferred financing costs during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Inventory

Inventory at December 31, 2014 consists of the in-progress mobile command units and is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. We did not have any inventory at December 31, 2015. We order inventory/components upon receipt of a signed purchase order from a customer.

Convertible Instruments

The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with accounting standards for “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.”

Accounting standards generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur, and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. Professional standards also provide an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional as defined under professional standards as “The Meaning of Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument.”

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with professional standards when “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features,” as those professional standards pertain to “Certain Convertible Instruments.” Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Original issue discounts (“OID”) under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note.

ASC 815-40 provides that, among other things, generally, if an event is not within the entity’s control could or require net cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset or a liability.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606, or ASU 2014-09. ASU 2014-09 establishes the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP. The standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. In applying the new revenue recognition model to contracts with customers, an entity: (1) identifies the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identifies the performance obligations in the contract(s); (3) determines the transaction price; (4) allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract(s); and (5) recognizes revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The accounting standards update applies to all contracts with customers except those that are within the scope of other topics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The accounting standards update also requires significantly expanded quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the implementation of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, or ASU 2014-15. ASU 2014-15 will explicitly require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosure in certain circumstances. The new standard will be effective for all entities in the first annual period ending after December 15, 2016. Earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is not early adopting ASU 2014-15. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the implementation of ASU 2014-15 will have on the Company’s financial statements, and the actual impact will be dependent upon the Company’s liquidity and the nature or significance of future events or conditions that exist upon adopting the updated standard.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, or ASU 2015-03. Under ASU 2015-03, the costs of issuing debt will no longer be recorded as an intangible asset, except when incurred before receipt of the funding from the associated debt liability. Rather, debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability will be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability, similar to the presentation of debt discounts. The costs will continue to be amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method. ASU 2015-03 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2015-03 requires retrospective application to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-03 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05, Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement, or ASU 2015-05. ASU 2015-05 provides guidance to entities about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. Under ASU 2015-05, if a software cloud computing arrangement contains a software license, entities should account for the license element of the arrangement in a manner consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If the arrangement does not contain a software license, entities should account for the arrangement as a service contract. ASU 2015-05 also removes the requirement to analogize to ASC 840-10, to determine the asset acquired in a software licensing arrangement. For public companies, ASU 2015-05 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-05 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, or ASU 2015-17. ASU 2015-17 provides guidance on balance sheet classification of deferred taxes. The new guidance requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. For public companies, ASU 2015-17 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-17 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

F-18

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, or ASU 2016-02. The new guidance requires lessees to recognize the assets and liabilities arising from leases on the balance sheet. For public companies, ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

NOTE 3 - ACQUISITIONS

North American Custom Specialty Vehicles (“NACSV”)

On June 16, 2014, we acquired all of the outstanding membership interest of NACSV in a transaction accounted for using the purchase method of accounting (the “Acquisition”). NACSV specializes in building mobile emergency operations centers (“MEOC’s”) and specialty vehicles for emergency management, first responders, national security and law enforcement operations.

As consideration for the consummation of the Acquisition, at the closing of the Acquisition, the Company paid $1,000,000 in cash to the selling members, and issued them 645,161 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $200,000 (the “Stock Consideration”). In connection with the Acquisition, the Company is required to make a true-up payment of the excess of total assets over $1.2 million, valued at $816,373, payable in shares of the Company’s common stock (the “True-Up Payment”), and additional consideration as certain events or transactions occur in the future, up to a maximum of $2.4 million, payable in shares of the Company’s common stock or in cash at the seller’s option (the “Contingent Consideration”). Additionally, the Company issued 1.8 million shares of common stock for acquisition services rendered in conjunction with the Acquisition valued at $664,000. The Company recorded nonrecurring charges of $843,488 during the year ended December 31, 2014 related to the direct costs of the Acquisition, consisting of the $664,000 value of the shares of common stock issued for acquisition services and $179,488 of cash costs for legal, accounting fees and due diligence fees.

The purchase price of the Acquisition totaled $2,713,079, comprised of $1,000,000 in cash, the Stock Consideration of $200,000, the True-Up Payment of $816,373, and the fair value of the Contingent Consideration of $696,706. The fair value of the Contingent Consideration was estimated based upon the present value of the expected future payouts. On October 17, 2014, we issued 2,635,074 shares of our common stock valued at $0.31 as settlement for the True-Up Payment.

Under the purchase method of accounting, the purchase price of the Acquisition was allocated to NACSV’s net tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the date of the completion of the Acquisition, as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents	$135,425
Accounts receivable, net	370,481
Inventory	73,140
Prepaid Expenses	26,004
Costs in excess of billings	570,787
Property and equipment, net	68,157
Customer relationships	668,940
Goodwill	1,156,192
Total assets acquired	3,069,126
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities	37,811
Notes payable	304,605
Billings in excess of costs	13,631
Total liabilities assumed	356,047
Total purchase price	$2,713,079

The fair values of certain assets and liabilities have been determined by management. No portion of the intangible assets, including goodwill, is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.During the fourth quarter of 2014, based on the annual testing for impairment, the implied value of the goodwill acquired in the Acquisition was nil and, accordingly, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge for the full amount of the goodwill of $1,156,192 as of December 31, 2014.

F-19

The results of operations of NACSV are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations from the date of the acquisition of June 16, 2014, including approximately $205,700 of revenue and approximately $317,000 of net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014. The following unaudited supplemental pro forma information assumes that the Acquisition had occurred as of January 1, 2014:

	2014 (Unaudited)
Revenues	$2,658,798
Net loss from continuing operations	$(11,255,057)
Net loss per share from continuing operations	$(0.11)

              The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred if the Acquisition had occurred on the dates indicated or that may result in the future.

Share Purchase and Sale Agreement for Acquisition of Grupo Rontan Electro Metalurgica, S.A.

Effective October 13, 2015, the Company (as “Purchaser”) entered into the SPSA dated October 8, 2015 with Joao Alberto Bolzan and Jose Carlos Bolzan, both Brazilian residents (collectively, the “Sellers”) and Grupo Rontan Electro Metalurgica, S.A., a limited liability company duly organized and existing under the laws of Federative Republic of Brazil (“Rontan”) (collectively, the “Parties”), pursuant to which the Sellers agreed to sell 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Rontan to the Purchaser on the closing date.

The purchase price shall consist of a cash amount, a stock amount and an earn-out amount as follows: (i) Brazilian Real (“R”) $100 million (approximately US$26 million) to be paid by the Purchaser in equal monthly installments over a period of forty eight (48) months following the closing date; (ii) an aggregate of R$100 million (approximately US$26 million) in shares of the Purchaser’s common stock, valued at US$1.00 per share; and (iii) an earn-out payable within ten business days following receipt by the Purchaser of Rontan’s audited financial statements for the 12-months ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019. The earn-out shall be equal to the product of (i) Rontan’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) for the last 12 months, and (ii) twenty percent and is contingent upon Rontan’s EBITDA results for any earn-out period being at least 125% of Rontan’s EBITDA for the 12-months ended December 31, 2015. It is the intention of the parties that the stock amount will be used by Rontan to repay institutional debt outstanding as of the closing date.

Under the terms of a Finders Fees Agreement dated April 14, 2014, we have agreed to pay RLT Consulting Inc., a related party, a fee of 2% (two percent) of the Transaction Value, as defined in the agreement, of Rontan upon closing. The fee is payable one-half in cash and one-half in shares of our common stock.

Specific conditions to closing consist of:

a)

Purchaser’s receipt of written limited assurance of an unqualified opinion with respect to Rontan’s audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2014 (the “Opinion”);

b)

The commitment of sufficient investment by General American Capital Partners LLC (the “Institutional Investor”), in the Purchaser following receipt of the Opinion;

c)

The accuracy of each Parties’ representations and warranties contained in the SPSA;

d)

The continued operation of Rontan’s business in the ordinary course;

e)

The maintenance of all of Rontan’s bank credit lines in the maximum amount of R$200 million (approximately US$52 million) under the same terms and conditions originally agreed with any such financial institutions, and the maintenance of all other types of funding arrangements. As of the date of the SPSA, Rontan’s financial institution debt consists of not more than R$200 million (approximately US$52 million), trade debt of not more than R$50 million (approximately US$13 million) and other fiscal contingencies of not more that R$95 million (approximately US$24.7 million);

f)

Rontan shall enter into employment or consulting service agreements with key employees and advisors identified by the Purchaser, including Rontan’s Chief Executive Officer; and

g)

The Sellers continued guarantee of Rontan’s bank debt for a period of 90 days following issuance of the Opinion, among other items.

F-20

The Institutional Investor has committed to invest sufficient capital to facilitate the transaction, subject to receipt of the Opinion, among other conditions.

Subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent provided for in the SPSA, the closing date of the transaction shall take place within 10 business days from the date of issuance of the Opinion.

Rontan is engaged in the manufacture and distribution of specialty vehicles and acoustic/visual signaling equipment for the industrial and automotive markets.

On April 1, 2016, we believed that we had satisfied or otherwise waived the conditions to closing (as disclosed under the SPSA, the closing was subject to specific conditions to closing, which were waivable by us,) and advised the Sellers of our intention to close the SPSA and demanded delivery of the Rontan Securities. The Sellers, however, notified us that they intend to terminate the SPSA. We believe that the Sellers had no right to terminate the SPSA and that notice of termination by the Sellers was not permitted under the terms of the SPSA.

On January 31, 2018, we announced that we initiated a lawsuit for damages against Grupo Rontan Metalurgica, S. A, (“Rontan”) and that company’s controlling shareholders, Joao Alberto Bolzan and Jose Carlos Bolzan. The action has been filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida. The complaint alleges that Rontan is wholly-owned by Joao Bolzan and Jose Bolzan. In the complaint, we further allege that Rontan and its shareholders improperly terminated a Share Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “SPA”) by which we were to acquire whole ownership of Rontan.

On February 5, 2018, United States District Court Southern District of Florida filed a Pretrial Scheduling Order and Order Referring Case to Mediation dated February 5, 2018 for the Company’s lawsuit against Grupo Rontan Electro Metalurgica, S.A., et al. The Case No. is 18-80106-Civ-Middlebrooks/Brannon. The court has issued a schedule outlining various documents and responses that are to be delivered by the parties as part of the discovery plan.

On April 25, 2018, the Note of Filing Proposed Summons was complete by the Company. On April 26, 2018, a summons was issed to Grupo Rontan Electro Metalrgica, S.A. Also, on May 15, 2018 the Company filed a motion for Issuance of Letters Rogatory.

NOTE 4 - INVENTORY

Inventory consists of the following:

	December 31,
	2015	2014
Trailer Inventory	$-	$187,881
Work-in-process	-	57,877
Less: Reserve for inventory loss	-	(187,881)
Total	$-	$57,877

We had established a reserve for inventory loss for $187,881 of trailer inventory on hand at NACSV at December 31, 2014. Pursuant to the terms of the Equity Purchase Agreement between the Company and the NACSV sellers, all of the proceeds from the sale of this inventory were to be paid to the NACSV sellers and thus the Company’s net realizable value on this inventory, which was sold during the year ended December 31, 2015, was zero. The Company orders inventory/components when it receives a signed purchase order from its customer.

NOTE 5 – GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

Goodwill arose in connection with our acquisition of NACSV in June 2014, which is more fully discussed in Note 3. We do not presently have any other intangible assets with indefinite lives.

In testing our goodwill during the fourth quarter of 2014, we used an income valuation approach based on information currently available. The approach considered the likelihood of future cash flows that we expect our NACSV business to generate over the next ten years, along with a terminal value based on a long-term sustainable growth rate subsequent to 2015 of 1%, which were discounted using a 20% discount rate. Based on our analysis, the implied value of our goodwill was nil and, accordingly, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge of as of December 31, 2014 as follows:

	December 31, 2014
Beginning balance	$-
Acquired goodwill (see Note 3)	1,156,192
Goodwill impairment loss	(1,156,192)
Ending balance	$-

Intangible Asset

At December 31, 2014, we had an intangible asset of $596,471, which was comprised of customer relationships. The customer relationships arose from the Acquisition, as more fully discussed in Note 3. Based on valuation for the year ending December 31, 2014, we determined that the remaining value of the customer relationships of $596,471 was impaired. Therefore, we recorded an intangible asset impairment loss of $596,471 in the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014. This was due in part to the lack of revenue from sales of NACSV’s products during the year ending December 31, 2104, as well as to our expectations regarding future estimated discounted cash flows attributable to such asset. We have filed legal proceedings against the sellers of NACSV as more fully discussed in Note 10. We believe that certain misrepresentations were made to us regarding the business prospects of NACSV. In addition to the legal issue discussed in Note 10, we intend to pursue additional legal remedies related to NACSV’s business prospects.

NOTE 6 – ACCRUED EXPENSES

Accrued expenses consist of the following amounts:

	Year ended December 31,
	2015	2014
Accrued compensation to executive officers and employees	$151,565	$ 155,485
Accrued professional fees	28,592	42,091
Accured Interest	17,143	-
Total accrued expenses	$197,300	$197,576

NOTE 7 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

We had no Level 1 or Level 2 assets and liabilities at December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The derivative liablity is a Level 3 fair value measurement.

F-22

The following is a summary of activity of Level 3 liabilities during the year ended December 31, 2015:

	Embedded Derivative Liabilities of Convertible Notes	Contingent Consideration
Balance at December 31, 2014	$-	$648,614
Initial fair value of embedded derivative liabilities of convertible notes payable issued during 2015	1,068,109	-
Change in fair value	(798,029)	-
Decrease in amount owed to Dekle per EPA Potter County Sale	-	(648,614)
Balance at December 31, 2015	$270,080	$-

Embedded Derivative Liabilities of Convertible Notes

The initial fair value of the bifurcated embedded derivative liabilities of convertible notes was estimated using the following weighted-average inputs: risk free interest rate – 0.08%; expected life -.49 years: volatility - 339%; dividend rate – 0%. At December 31, 2015, the fair value of the bifurcated embedded derivative liabilities of convertible notes was estimated using the following weighted-average inputs: risk free interest rate – 0.16%; term - .25 years; volatility - 224%; dividend rate – 0%.

Contingent Consideration

ASC Topic 805 requires that contingent consideration be recognized at fair value on the acquisition date and be re-measured each reporting period with subsequent adjustments recognized in the consolidated statement of operations. We estimate the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities based on financial projections of the acquired companies and estimated probabilities of achievement and discount the liabilities to present value using a weighted-average cost of capital. Contingent consideration is valued using significant inputs that are not observable in the market which are defined as Level 3 inputs pursuant to fair value measurement accounting. We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable, however, there is significant judgment involved. At each reporting date, the contingent consideration obligation is revalued to its estimated fair value, and changes in fair value subsequent to the acquisitions are reflected in income or expense in the consolidated statements of operations, and could cause a material impact to, and volatility in, our operating results. Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration obligations may result from changes in discount periods, changes in the timing and amount of revenue and/or earnings estimates and changes in probability assumptions with respect to the likelihood of achieving the various earn-out criteria.

As of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, contingent consideration included in liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet totaled $0 and $648,614, respectively. After further developments, we have reserved $648,614 to decrease amount owed to Dekle per the EPA Potter County Sale, We have filed legal proceedings against the sellers of NACSV as more fully discussed in Note 10.

Carrying Value of Other Current Assets and Other Current Liabilities

The Company’s management considers the carrying values of other current assets and other current liabilities to approximate fair values primarily due to their short-term nature.

NOTE 8 – NOTE PAYABLE

Convertible Notes Payable with Embedded Derivative Liabilities (Conversion Options)

During the year ended December 31, 2015, we entered into nine convertible notes payable with embedded derivative liabilities (conversion options) with an aggregate principal balance of $670,250. At December 31, 2015, two of these notes were outstanding as follows:

	December 31, 2015
Convertible note payable for $78,750 to LG Capital Funding, LLC (“LG Capital”) dated January 16, 2015, due January 16, 2016, of which $38,829 was repaid by conversion as of December 31, 2015, bearing interest at the rate of 8% per annum. Note may be converted by LG Capital into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to a 40% discount of the lowest closing bid price for 20 prior trading days including the notice of conversion date. (1)(2)(3)	$39,921
Convertible note payable for $250,000 to JMJ Financial (“JMJ”) of which $82,500 was deemed funded on January 28, 2015 and $27,500 was deemed funded on April 20, 2015, of which $40,930 was repaid by conversion as of December 31, 2015. The note was issued with an original issue discount of 10% of amounts funded. The principal amount matures 24 months from the date of each funding, had a one-time 12% interest charge as it was not repaid within 90 days of the effective date, and is convertible at any time at the option of JMJ into shares of our common stock at the lesser of $0.075 per share or 60% of the average of the trade price in the 25 trading days prior to conversion. JMJ has the option to finance additional amounts up to the balance of the $250,000 during the term of the note. (1) (2)(4)	$69,070
Total convertible notes payable with embedded derivative liability	$108,991

(1) The embedded derivative liability associated with the conversion option of the note was bifurcated from the note and recorded at its fair value on the date of issuance and at each reporting date.

 

(2) Note was due on January 16, 2016. We have not yet repaid this note and it is, therefore, in default. We have also not maintained the required number of shares of our common stock in reserve for this note as more fully discussed below.

(3) On Deecmber 12, 2017, LG Capital Funding, LLC and the Company entered into a Convertible Note Redemption Agreement to pay back the balance owed as further discussed below.

(4) On December 13, 2017, JMJ Financial and the Company entered into a Repayment Agreement to pay back the balance owed as further discussed below.

 

Under the terms of the two convertible promissory notes outstanding at December 31, 2015, we are required to maintain a minimum number of shares of our common stock in reserve for conversions. In the case of the note with JMJ, the reserve amount is set at 26,650,000 shares of our common stock. However, under the terms of the note with LG Capital we are required to maintain a minimum share reserve equal to four times the potential number of shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion, or 66,204,427 shares at December 31, 2015. As a result of declines in the fair value of our common stock, we did not have sufficient authorized shares to maintain this required four times share reserve at December 31, 2015. Accordingly, the note holder had the right to accelerate the payment due (approximately $43,033 of principal and interest was due at December 31, 2015). In addition, they have the right to require that additional shares and/or monies be paid in connection with this technical default. At December 31, 2015, we have not accrued any penalties or penalty interest associated with this note, nor have we been notified by the lender of a technical default. Because the conversion prices vary with changes in the value of our common stock, the number of shares into which the outstanding notes payable and accrued interest are convertible will continue to vary, which may result in additional technical defaults if the price of our common stock decreases. As soon as we are able, we intend to request shareholder approval to increase the number of authorized shares of our common stock in order to satisfy our obligations to maintain sufficient authorized share reserves under the terms of our convertible notes. In addition, the two outstanding convertible notes also contain certain representations, warranties, covenants and other events of default, including in the case of one of the notes maintaining our common stock listing on the OTCQB exchange.

F-24

At inception the total estimated fair value of the embedded derivative liability associated with the conversion options of all nine such convertible notes payable issued during 2015 was $1,068,109 of which $798,029 was classified as a debt discount and amortized under the effective interest method during the year ended December 31, 2015, and $652,031 was immediately recognized as interest expense upon issuance, as it exceeded the principal balance of the related notes. During 2015, we recognized a gain on the change in the fair value of the derivative liability of $798,029. During 2015, we issued 419,364,293 shares of our common stock upon conversions of principal and accrued interest totaling $529,166. We also used $59,000 of proceeds from a revenue based factoring agreement to repay in cash two of the convertible notes payable. The factoring agreement is more fully discussed below.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, we used $59,000 of proceeds from a revenue based factoring agreement to repay in cash two of the convertible notes payable. The factoring agreement is more fully discussed below.

NOTE 10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

We may be involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of our business, and our management cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these legal proceedings with certainty. The Company is plaintiff or defendant in the following actions:

Dekle, et. al. v. Global Digital Solutions, Inc. et. al.

Brian A. Dekle and John Ramsay filed suit against the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, North American Custom Specialty Vehicles, Inc. (“NACSV”), in the Circuit Court of Baldwin Alabama, on January 14, 2015, case no. 05-CV-2015-9000050.00, relating to our acquisition of NACSV (the ''Dekle Action"). Prior to instituting the Dekle Action, in June 2014, the Company had entered into an equity purchase agreement with Dekle and Ramsay to purchase their membership interest in North American Custom Specialty Vehicles, LLC. The Dekle Action originally sought payment for $300,000 in post-closing consideration Dekle and Ramsay allege they are owed pursuant to the equity purchase agreement.

On February 9, 2015, the Company and NACSV removed the Dekle Action to federal court in the United States District Court in and for the Southern District of Alabama, case no. 1:15-CV-00069. The Company and NACSV subsequently moved to dismiss the complaint for (1) failing to state a cause of action, and (2) lack of personal jurisdiction. Alternatively, the Company and NACSV sought a transfer of the case to the United States District Court in and for Middle District of Florida.

F-27

In response to the Company’s and NACSV's motion to dismiss, Dekle and Ramsay filed an amended complaint on March 2, 2015 seeking specific performance and alleging breach of contract, violations of Security and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Rule 10b-5, and violations of the Alabama Securities Act. The amended complaint also names the Company’s Chairman, President, and CEO, Richard J. Sullivan (“Sullivan”), as a defendant. On March 17, 2015, the Company, NACSV and Sullivan filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint seeking dismissal for failure to state valid causes of action, for lack of personal jurisdiction, or alternatively to transfer the case to the United States District Court in and for the Middle District of Florida. Dekle and Ramsay responded on March 31, 2015, and the Company filed its response thereto on April 7, 2015.

 

On June 2, 2015, Dekle passed away.  On June 5, 2015, the Court denied the Company’s motion to transfer the case to Florida.   On June 10, 2015, the Company filed a motion to reconsider the Court’s denial of its motion to transfer the case to Florida. On September 30, 2105, the Court granted the Company’s Renewed Motion to Transfer Venue. The case was transferred to the Middle District of Florida, where it is currently pending.

On June 15, 2015, Ramsay filed a second amended complaint. On June 25, 2015, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint. The Company’s Motion to Dismiss was denied.

On July 27, 2017, the Company and Dekle and Ramsay came to a Settlement Agreement. The Company and the plaintiff came to the following agreements:

vi.

Judgment is due to be entered against the Company in the amount of $300,000 if the sum of $20,000 as noted in iv is not paid.

vii.

The Company grants the plaintiffs vehicles and trailers in connection to this proceeding.

The case was filed in the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit in and for Brevard County Florida, case no. 05-2015-CA-012250. On February 18, 2015 (i) defendants Communications Laboratories, Inc., ComLabs Global, LLC and Roland Lussier and (ii) defendant Wallace Bailey filed their respective motions to dismiss seeking, among other things, dismissal for failure to state valid causes of action, lumping and failure to post a non-resident bond.

We recognized compensation costs related to the issuance of common stock for services in 2015 and 2014. We issued 587,925 and 1,500,000 shares in 2015 and 2014, respectively, at fair value of $69,058 and $405,000.

Common Stock

We are authorized to issue 650,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, 530,806,571 and 108,291,855 shares were issued, outstanding, or vested but unissued under stock compensation plans, respectively

Common Stock Warrant

We have issued warrants, which are fully vested and available for exercise, as follows:

Class of Warrant	Issued in connection with or for	Number Outstanding	Exercise Price	Date of Issue	Date Vest	Date of Expiration
A-2	Services	1,000,000	$0.15	May, 2013	May, 2014	May, 2018
A-3	Services	500,000	$0.50	June, 2013	June, 2014	June, 2018
A-4	Services	1,000,000	$1.00	October, 2013	October, 2013	October, 2016

F-31

We recognized compensation costs of $604,168 related to the amortization of the fair value of the warrants in the year ended December 31, 2014. At December 31, 2014 the fair value of warrants had been fully amortized.

All warrants are exercisable at any time through the date of expiration. All agreements provides for the number of shares to be adjusted in the event of a stock split, a reverse stock split, a share exchange or other conversion or exchange event in which case the number of warrants and the exercise price of the warrants shall be adjusted on a proportional basis.

The following is a summary of outstanding and exercisable warrants at December 31, 2015:

	Outstanding			Exercisable
Range of Exercise Prices	Weighted Average Number Outstanding at 12/31/15	Outstanding Remaining Contractual Life (in yrs.)	Weighted Average Exercise Price	Number Exercisable at 12/31/15	Weighted Average Exercise Price
$0.15	1,000,000	2.3	$0.15	1,000,000	$0.15
$0.50	500,000	2.5	$0.50	500,000	$0.50
$1.00	1,000,000	.8	$1.00	1,000,000	$1.00
$0.56	2,500,000	1.90	$0.37	2,500,000	$0.56

The intrinsic value of warrants outstanding at December 31, 2015 was $0. Aggregate intrinsic value represents the value of the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of the fiscal period in excess of the exercise price of the warrant multiplied by the number of warrants outstanding or exercisable.

We determined the value of warrants issued using the following valuation amounts:

Warrant	Fair Value	Dividend Yield	Volatility	Contractual Lives (Yrs.)	Risk-Free Rate
A-2	$300,000	0.00%	593.00%	5.0	0.84%
A-3	$250,000	0.00%	598.12%	5.0	1.20%
A-4	$800,000	0.00%	647.97%	3.0	0.64%

The expected life represents an estimate of the weighted average period of time that options are expected to remain outstanding given consideration to vesting schedules and the Company’s historical exercise patterns. Expected volatility is estimated based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The risk free interest rate is estimated based on the U.S. Federal Reserve’s historical data for the maturity of nominal treasury instruments that corresponds to the expected term of the option. The expected dividend yield is 0% based on the fact that we have never paid dividends and have no present intention to pay dividends

A summary of the stock option activity for our stock options plans for year ended December 31, 2015 is as follows:

	Number of Options	Weighted Average Exercise Price per Share	Average Remaining Term in Years	Aggregate Intrinsic Value at Date of Grant
Outstanding December 31, 2014	4,840,000	$ 0.63	9.2	-
Options granted	12,150,000	0.11	9.8	-
Options exercised	-			-

Exercisable at December 31 2015	13,116,668	$ 0.60	9.5	-

We account for our stock-based compensation plans in accordance with ASC 718-10. Under the provisions of ASC 718-10, the fair value of each stock option is estimated on the date of grant using a BSM option-pricing formula, and amortizing that value to expense over the expected performance or service periods using the straight-line attribution method. The fair value of the stock options issued during the year ended December 31, 2015 was estimated using the BSM pricing model with the following weighted-average inputs: risk free interest rate of 1.5%; expected term of 5.08 years: volatility of 352.5% and dividend rate of 0%. The weighted average values of the assumptions used to value the options granted in the year ended December 31, 2014 were as follows: risk-free interest rates of 1.83%; expected term of 10 years; expected volatility of 684.6% and expected dividend yield of 0%. The expected life represents an estimate of the weighted average period of time that options are expected to remain outstanding given consideration to vesting schedules and the Company’s historical exercise patterns. Expected volatility is estimated based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The risk free interest rate is estimated based on the U.S. Federal Reserve’s historical data for the maturity of nominal treasury instruments that corresponds to the expected term of the option. The expected dividend yield is 0% based on the fact that we have never paid dividends and have no present intention to pay dividends.

During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, we recorded stock-based compensation cost related to the outstanding stock options of $308,143 and $3,558,733, respectively. At December 31, 2015, the unamortized value of the outstanding stock options was $91,847. The intrinsic value of options outstanding at December 31, 2015 was $0. Aggregate intrinsic value represents the value of the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of the fiscal period in excess of the exercise price of the option multiplied by the number of options outstanding.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, 390,000 stock options that had not yet vested were forfeited and 1,500,000 vested stock options granted to Mr. Loppert, our former CFO, were forfeited by their terms.

The grant was made under our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan. 4,000,000 RSU’s will vest in respect of each fiscal year of GDSI International from 2015 through 2017 if the company has achieved at least 90% of the total revenue targets set forth in the agreement. If less than 90% of the target is achieved in respect of any such fiscal year, then the number of RSU’s vesting for that fiscal year shall be 4,000,000 times the applicable percentage shown below; provided that, if the company shall exceed 100% of the revenue target for the 2016 or 2017 fiscal year, and shall have failed to reach 90% of the target for a prior fiscal year, the excess over 100% shall be applied to reduce the deficiency in the prior year(s), and an additional number of RSU’s shall vest to reflect the increased revenue for such prior fiscal year. Any such excess shall be applied first to reduce any deficiency for the 2015 fiscal year and then for the 2016 fiscal year. The vesting of the RSU’s shall be effective upon the issuance of the audited financial statements of the Company for the applicable fiscal year, and shall be based upon the total revenue of GDSI International as reflected in such financial statements. Effective January 9, 2015, Mr. Norris resigned and forfeited all rights in and to his RSU’s.

Any such excess shall be applied first to reduce any deficiency for the 2015 calendar year and then for the 2016 calendar year. The vesting of the RSU’s shall be effective upon the issuance of the audited financial statements of the Company for the applicable calendar year, and shall be based upon the total revenue and EBITDA of the acquired companies as reflected in such financial statements.

As of December 31, 2015, the Company had approximately $9,700,000 of federal net operating loss carry forwards. These carry forwards, if not used, will begin to expire in 2028. Current or future ownership changes, including issuances of common stock under the terms of the Company’s convertible notes payable that were entered into during 2015 and the closing of the Rontan Transaction may severely limit the future realization of these net operating losses.

F-37

The Company provides for a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that they will not realize a portion of the deferred tax assets. The Company has established a valuation allowance against their net deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty that enough taxable income will be generated in those taxing jurisdictions to utilize the assets. Therefore, they have not reflected any benefit of such deferred tax assets in the accompanying financial statements. The Company’s net deferred tax asset and valuation allowance increased by $758,000 in the year ended December 31, 2015.

The Company has reviewed all income tax positions taken or that are expected to be taken for all open years and determined that their income tax positions are appropriately stated and supported for all open years. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for years after 2011 due to unexpired net operating loss carryforwards originating in and subsequent to that year. The Company may be subject to income tax examinations for the various taxing authorities which vary by jurisdiction.

The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits as additional income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations. As of January 1, 2015, there were had no unrecognized tax benefits, or any tax related interest or penalties.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the various states in which they operate. The former members of NACSV are required to file separate federal and state tax returns for NACSV for the periods prior to our acquisition of NACSV. The Company files consolidated tax returns for subsequent periods. The Company has not yet filed their U.S. federal and certain state tax returns for 2015 and currently do not have any examinations ongoing. Tax returns for the years 2012 onwards are subject to federal, state or local examinations.

NOTE 13 – ACQUISITION OF AIRTRONIC AND NOTE RECEIVABLE FROM AIRTRONIC

On October 22, 2012, we entered into an Agreement of Merger and Plan of Reorganization (“Merger Agreement”) to acquire 70% of Airtronic USA, Inc. (“Airtronic”), a debtor in possession under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in a case pending in the US Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division (the “Court”) once Airtronic successfully reorganized and emerged from bankruptcy (the “Merger”). During the period from October 2012 through November 2013, GDSI was actively involved in the day to day management of Airtronic pending the completion of the Merger.

Contemporaneously, on October 22, 2012, we entered into a Debtor In Possession Note Purchase Agreement (“Bridge Loan”) with Airtronic. We agreed to lend Airtronic a maximum of $2,000,000, with an initial advance of $750,000 evidenced by an 8¼% Secured Promissory Note made by Airtronic in favor of the Company (the “Original Note”) and a Security Agreement pledging all of Airtronic’s assets. As of December 31, 2012 we had not advanced any funds to Airtronic under the Bridge Loan and Original Note. In March 2013, the Company and Airtronic amended the Bridge Loan to provide for a maximum advance of up to $700,000 in accordance with draws submitted by Airtronic and approved by the Company in accordance with the budget set forth in the amendment. On August 5, 2013, we entered into the Second Bridge Loan Modification and Ratification Agreement, received a new 8¼% secured promissory note in principal amount of $550,000 (the “Second Note”), and entered into a Security Agreement with the CEO of Airtronic, which granted a security interest in certain intellectual property for patent-pending applications and trademarks that were registered in the CEO’s name. On October 10, 2013, we entered into the Third Bridge Loan Modification and Ratification Agreement, and received a new 8¼% secured promissory note for $200,000 (the “Third Note”).

On October 2, 2013, Airtronic’s amended plan of reorganization (the “Plan”) was confirmed by the Court, but the Plan was never substantially consummated and was terminated. Under the terms of the Plan, Airtronic needed to close the Merger with the Company on or before December 2, 2013 which Airtronic refused to do, and, as a result, the Plan terminated and the reorganized Airtronic re-vested in the bankruptcy estate of Airtronic as a debtor-in-possession.

On March 31, 2014, Airtronic filed a First Amended Modified Plan of Reorganization (“First Modified Plan”) which was confirmed on April 28, 2014. On May 14, 2014 Airtronic repaid the Original Note, the Second Note and the Third Note together with all accrued interest thereon in the total amount of $1,509,056. On August 12, 2014, we received $414,761 that we were awarded for legal fees and expenses incurred.

From and after the Effective Date, (a) if Borrower fails to make payment of any Retainer Payment when due, in addition to all other rights of Lender hereunder and under applicable Law, the amount of each such unpaid Retainer Payment shall automatically be added to the principal amount of the Loan hereof and (b) if Borrower has not paid the Loan and all then-outstanding Additional Principal Amounts in whole as of the Resolution Funding Date, an amount equal to (x) ten percent (10%) of the sum of (i) the then-outstanding principal amount of the Note, including the Loan and all then-outstanding Additional Principal Amounts and (ii) all accrued interest thereon plus (y) Lender’s five percent (5%) portion of the total aggregate Resolution Funding Payment shall automatically be added to the principal balance hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, as an example and to provide clarity with respect to this sub-clause (y), if Borrower receives $100,000,000 in Resolution Funding Payment, the principal balance of this Note shall automatically and without any further action on the part of any party be increased by $5,000,000 (i.e., Lender’s 5% portion of the total aggregate Resolution Funding Payment). Each amount added to the principal of the Note pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be referred to as an “Additional Principal Amount.”

2.3Optional Prepayment; Best Efforts; Lender’s Rights to Demand Payment. Notwithstanding any terms in this Note to the contrary:

(a)Borrower may prepay the Loan and/or all Additional Principal Amounts, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time without penalty or premium, prior to receipt of demand from the Lender, by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued interest thereon (subject to the provisions of Section 4.6) to the date of prepayment (each such payment a “Voluntary Payment”);

(b)Borrower shall use best efforts to pay all amounts due under this Note, during the period between the Resolution Progress Funding Date and the Resolution Funding Date; and

(c)the enumeration in this Note of specific obligations of Borrower to Lender and/or conditions to the repayment of funds under this Note shall not be construed to qualify, define, or otherwise limit Lender’s right, power, or ability, at any time and for any reason, under applicable Law, to require full payment of the Loan and all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts payable under this Note, including but not limited to, Additional Principal Amount, ON DEMAND.

2.4Effective Date Prepayment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Borrower shall make mandatory prepayments of the Loan in the following amounts and at the following times:

Amount	Date of Mandatory Prepayment(each, a “Prepayment Trigger”)
$1,000.00 (one thousand dollars)	Effective Date
$50,000.00 (fifty thousand dollars)	The date on which the judge presiding over the Lawsuit issues a ruling or decision in which the Lawsuit survives a motion to dismiss
$50,000 (fifty thousand dollars)	The date on which discovery closes with respect to the Lawsuit
$100,000 (one hundred thousand dollars)	The date on which the judge presiding over the Lawsuit issues a ruling or decision in which the Lawsuit survives a motion for summary judgment on the claims

Each such payment shall be due on the date of each applicable Prepayment Trigger and shall be paid to Lender on or within five (5) Business Days of the applicable Prepayment Trigger and all such payments shall be made in accordance with Section 3. These good faith payments represent evidence by Borrower that it is Borrower’s intention to pay down the balance of this Note in an expedite manner.

3.Payments. Payments made under this Note shall be in accordance with the following:

3.1Manner of Payments. All payments of interest, principal, and all other amounts shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America by wire transfer of immediately available funds to Lender’s account at a bank specified by Lender in writing to Borrower from time to time.

3.2Application of Payments. All payments made hereunder, including insufficient payments, shall be credited, regardless of their designation by Borrower, first to collection expenses due hereunder, then to outstanding late charges, then to interest due and payable but not yet paid, then to any outstanding principal that is an Additional Principal Amount, and the remainder, if any, to outstanding principal that is the Loan.

3.3Business Day Convention. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension will be taken into account in calculating the amount of interest payable under this Note.

3.4Evidence of Debt. Lender is authorized to record on the grid attached hereto as Exhibit B the Loan, each Additional Principal Amount, and each payment or prepayment thereof. The entries made by Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of Lender to record such payments or prepayments, or any inaccuracy therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the entirety of the principal amount hereunder (including the Loan and any Additional Principal Amounts) and all other amounts due hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Note.

4.Interest. Interest under this Note shall be as follows:

4.1Interest Rate. Except as otherwise provided herein, the unpaid principal amount of this Note (including the Loan and all Additional Principal Amounts) outstanding hereunder shall bear interest at the Applicable Rate from the Effective Date (and, in the case of each Additional Principal Amount, the date such Additional Principal Amount is added to the principal) until the date on which the principal balance of this Note is paid in full, whether on demand, by prepayment, or otherwise.

4.2Default Interest. If any amount payable hereunder is not paid promptly upon, and in any event within one (1) Business Day following, demand (without regard to any applicable grace periods), such overdue amount shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full.

4.3Interest Payable. Interest, at the Applicable Rate or the Default Rate, as applicable, shall be payable ON DEMAND. Borrower may make whole or partial interest payments at any time prior to demand, without penalty and without affecting any other provisions of this Note.

4.4Computation of Interest. All computations of interest shall be made on the basis of a year of 365/366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on the Loan from the Effective Date, and on each Additional Principal Amount from the date such Additional Principal Amount is added pursuant to Section 2.2, and shall not accrue on the Loan or any Additional Principal Amount for the day on which it is paid.

4.5Interest Rate Limitation. If, at any time and for any reason whatsoever, the interest rate payable on the Loan or any Additional Principal Amount shall exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by Lender to Borrower under applicable Law, that portion of each sum paid attributable to that portion of such interest rate that exceeds the maximum rate of interest permitted by applicable Law shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment of principal.

4.6Forgiveness of Interest upon Voluntary Payments. To further incentivize Borrower to make Voluntary Payments of principal amounts under this Note, the Parties agree that (a) any amounts received by Lender in respect of each Voluntary Payment shall be applied in full to the principal balance of this Note, first to any Additional Principal Amount and then to the Loan and (b) the amount of interest accrued on this Note pursuant to Section 4.1 in respect of the principal amounts repaid by each such Voluntary Payment shall be forgiven in full and the amount thereof deemed paid in full on the date of receipt of such Voluntary Payment.

5.Security Agreement; Seniority. The Borrower’s performance of its obligations hereunder is secured by a security interest in the collateral specified in the Security Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit D.

RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY REPORTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2015

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]

RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY REPORTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company determined that the Company’s previously issued financial statements for fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 as originally filed by prior auditors could no longer be relied upon without prior auditors workpapers to confirm the numbers. As a result, the Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this “Amendment”) to restate and amend the Company’s original Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 (the “Original Form 10-K”) to include this note and an explanation of the restatement of the 2014 numbers.

This Note A to the consolidated financial statements discloses the nature of the restatement matters and their impact on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014.

The “As Reported” amounts in the tables below represent the amounts reported in the Original 2014 Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 30, 2015.

The following errors in the Company’s annual financial statements were identified and corrected as part of the Restatement:

1. Accounts Receivable. The Company determined that an accounts receivable of NACSV in the amount of $300,000 was, in retrospect, uncollectible. The correction of this error resulted in a $300,000 reduction in revenues and accounts receivable and increased the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014 by $300,000.

2. Inventory. The Company determined that an additional $169,020 of inventory was, in retrospect, impaired. The correction of this error resulted in a $169,020 reduction in revenues and increased cost of revenue and the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014 by $169,020.

3. Intangible Assets. The Company determined that the Intangible Assets of $596,471 reflecting the customer list of the wholly owned subsidiary, NACSV was, in retrospect, impaired. The correction of this error resulted in a $596,471 reduction in intangible assets and increased operating expenses and the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014 by $596,471.

4. Additional Paid-In Capital. The Company determined that the expense for the issuance of restricted stock was overstated by $603,000. The correction of this error resulted in a $603,000 reduction in additional paid-in capital, operating expenses and the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014.

5. Goodwill Impairment Loss. The Company determined that the $1,156,192 goodwill impairment loss was improperly included in other expense (income) and should be included in operating expenses. The correction of this error resulted in a $1,156,192 reduction in other expense (income) and a $1,156,192 increase in operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2014. The correction had no impact on the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014.

6.             Revenue. The Company has determined that an accounts receivable of NACSV in the amount of $300,000 was, in retrospect, uncollectible. The correction of this error resulted in a reduction not only in accounts receivable of $300,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014 but the in revenue number for the year ended December 31, 2014. Gross Profit was reduced by $300,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014. Total assets were reduced by $300,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014.

7.             SG&A Expenses. The Company has determined that the Additional paid-in capital did not reflect adjustments for to restricted stock expense of $603,000. The correction of this error resulted in not only a reduction in Shareholders' deficiency by $603,000 for the year ending December 31, 2014 but an decrease in SG&A expense for the year ending December 31, 2014.

8.             Loss on impairment of Intangible Assets. The Company has determined that the Intangible Assets of $596,471 reflecting the customer list of the wholly owned subsidiary, NACSV was, in retrospect, impaired. The correction of this error resulted in a reduction in Intangible Assets of $596,471 for the year ending December 31, 2014 and an increase in loss on impairment of Intangible Assets of $596,471. Total other income (expense) was increased by $596,471 for the year ending December 31, 2014.

9.             Loss on write-down of inventory. The Company has determined that the inventory of $169,030 was, in retrospect, impaired. The correction of this error resulted in a reduction in inventory of $169,030 for the year ending December 31, 2014 as well as an increase in Loss on write down inventory of $169,030 on the income statement. Total other income (expense) was increased by $169,030 for the year ending December 31, 2014.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

We were incorporated in New Jersey as Creative Beauty Supply, Inc. (“Creative”) in August 1995. In March 2004, Creative acquired Global Digital Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Global”). The merger was treated as a recapitalization of Global, and Creative changed its name to Global Digital Solutions, Inc. ("the Company", "we"), Global provided structured cabling design, installation and maintenance for leading information technology companies, federal, state and local government, major businesses, educational institutions, and telecommunication companies. On May 1, 2012, we made the decision to wind down our operations in the telecommunications area and to refocus our efforts in the area of cyber arms technology and complementary security and technology solutions. From August 2012 through November 2013 we were actively involved in managing Airtronic USA, Inc., and effective as of June 16, 2014 we acquired North American Custom Specialty Vehicles (“NACSV”). In July 2014, we announced the formation of GDSI International (f/k/a Global Digital Solutions, LLC) to spearhead our efforts overseas. The Company has been dormant since December 31, 2015.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have sustained losses and experienced negative cash flows from operations since inception, and for the year ended December 31, 2015 we incurred a net loss of $2,689,331 and used net cash of $767,390 to fund operating activities. At December 31, 2015, we had cash and cash equivalents of $2,944, an accumulated deficit of $31,667,385, a working capital deficit of $964,987 and stockholders’ deficit of $957,651. We have funded our activities to date almost exclusively from equity and debt financings. For a more complete discussion, please refer to Note 17, subsequent events.

Our cash position is critically deficient, and payments essential to our ability to operate are not being made in the ordinary course. Failure to raise capital in the coming days to fund our operations and failure to generate positive cash flow to fund such operations in the future will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We are in default under the terms of our loan agreements, as more fully discussed in Note 8. We need to raise additional funds immediately and continue to raise funds until we begin to generate sufficient cash from operations, and we may not be able to obtain the necessary financing on acceptable terms, or at all.

We will continue to require substantial funds to continue development of our core business. Management’s plans in order to meet our operating cash flow requirements include financing activities such as private placements of common stock, and issuances of debt and convertible debt instruments, and the establishment of strategic relationships which we expect will lead to the generation of additional revenue or acquisition opportunities.

While we believe that we will be successful in obtaining the necessary financing to fund our operations, there are no assurances that such additional funding will be achieved or that we will succeed in our future operations. On February 2, 2018, we announced that we had secured $1.2 million in a non-convertible financing from a New York-based institution.

Our independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of our history of net losses. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon our ability to successfully execute the plans to pursue acquisitions, and raise the funds necessary to complete such acquisitions. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and our wholly owned subsidiaries, NACSV, GDSI Florida, LLC and Global Digital Solutions, LLC, dba GDSI International. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP in the United States of America, or U.S., requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on the knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results. Included in these estimates are assumptions used in; (i) determining the lives of long-lived assets; (ii) Black-Scholes-Merton, or BSM, valuation models used to estimate the fair value of stock-based compensation and warrants; (iii) determining the value of a promissory note with an embedded convertible option; (iv) the amount of beneficial conversion feature of convertible debt; (v) the liability for estimated contingent consideration payable and (vi) determining valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, among other items. 

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following conditions are satisfied: (1) there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement; (2) the product or service has been provided to the customer; (3) the amount paid by the customer is fixed or determinable; and (4) the collection of each amount is probable. The Company records revenue when it is realizable and earned upon shipment of the finished products or when the service has been provided.

Advertising

All advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Provision for Income Taxes

Income taxes are calculated based upon the asset and liability method of accounting. Deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard to allow for recognition of such an asset. In addition, realization of an uncertain income tax position must be estimated as “more likely than not” (i.e., greater than 50% likelihood of receiving a benefit) before it can be recognized in the financial statements. Further, the recognition of tax benefits recorded in the financial statements, if any, is based on the amount most likely to be realized assuming a review by tax authorities having all relevant information.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  At December 31, 2015 and 2014, cash and cash equivalents, consisting of cash in bank, were $2,944 and $160,102, respectively.

Accounts Receivable

We record accounts receivable at the invoiced amount and we do not charge interest. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to reserve for potentially uncollectible receivables. We review the accounts receivable by customers which are past due to identify specific customers with known disputes or collectability issues. In determining the amount of the reserve, we make judgments about the creditworthiness of significant customers based on ongoing credit evaluations. Allowance for doubtful accounts was $15,085 at December 31, 2014. We did not have an allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2015, due to a significant decrease in accounts receivable.

Prepaid expenses

Prepaid expenses consist primarily of prepaid insurance totaling $99,111 and $81,499 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which is amortized on a straight-line basis over the policy period.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying amounts of debt were also estimated to approximate fair value. The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurement). This fair value measurement framework applies at both initial and subsequent measurement.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined by ASC 820 are as follows:

● Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

● Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

● Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by market data.

Convertible Notes With Conversion Options

We have entered into convertible notes with related parties that contain conversion options, whereby the outstanding principal and accrued interest may be converted, by the holder, into shares of our common stock at a price which represented a 30% discount to the price of our common stock at the time of issuance. We measure the fair value of the notes at the time of issuance, which is the result of the share price conversion discount, and record the discount (beneficial conversion feature) as a reduction of debt. We then accrete the discount as interest expense utilizing the effective interest rate method over the life of the debt.

Derivative Financial Instruments

During the year ended December 31, 2015, we issued convertible notes payable to third parties, which contain variable conversion options allowing the holders to convert the notes payable into shares of our common stock at discounts ranging from 39% to 40%. Each of these notes is more fully described in Note 8.

We account for these conversion options embedded in the convertible notes payable to third parties in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC’) 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Subtopic ASC 815-15, Embedded Derivatives generally requires companies to bifurcate conversion options embedded in the convertible notes from their host instruments and to account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. Derivative liabilities are recognized in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value as Derivative Liabilities and based on the criteria specified in FASB ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s own Equity. The estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities is calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model and such estimates are revalued at each balance sheet date, with changes recorded to other income or expense as Change in Fair Value – Derivatives in the consolidated statement of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or equity, is evaluated at the instrument origination date and reviewed at the end of each event date (i.e. conversions, payments, etc.) and the measurement period end date for financial reporting, as applicable. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified on the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument would be required within twelve months of the balance sheet date.

Convertible Securities

Based upon ASC 815-15, we have adopted a sequencing approach regarding the application of ASC 815-40 to convertible securities issued subsequent to December 31, 2014. We will evaluate our contracts based upon the earliest issuance date. In the event partial reclassification of contracts subject to ASC 815-40-25 is necessary, due to our inability to demonstrate we have sufficient shares authorized and unissued, shares will be allocated on the basis of issuance date, with the earliest issuance date receiving first allocation of shares. If a reclassification of an instrument were required, it would result in the instrument issued latest being reclassified first.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share (“EPS”)

Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS includes the effect from potential issuance of common stock, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants and the assumed conversion of convertible notes.

The following table summarizes the securities that were excluded from the diluted per share calculation because the effect of including these potential shares was antidilutive:

	Year ended December 31,
	2015		2014
Convertible notes and accrued interest		48,513,147		766,666
Stock options		16,100,000		5,840,000
Warrants		2,500,000		4,250,000
Vested but unissued restricted stock awards		375,000		2,187,503
Restricted stock units		1,000,000		-
Price protection		-		1,854,838
Potentially dilutive securities		68,488,147		14,899,007

Stock Based Compensation

We adopted the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, "Compensation – Stock Compensation”. Under the fair value recognition provisions, we are required to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for share-based compensation measured at the grant date fair value of the award.

The Company’s accounting policy for equity instruments issued to advisors, consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of FASB ASC 505-50. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the advisor, consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the advisor, consultant or vendor’s performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to advisors and consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the advisor or consulting agreement. Stock-based compensation related to non-employees is accounted for based on the fair value of the related stock or options or the fair value of the services, whichever is more readily determinable. 

Contingent consideration for business acquisitions

Acquisitions may include contingent consideration payments based on future financial measures of an acquired company. Contingent consideration is required to be recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date. We estimate the fair value of these liabilities based on financial projections of the acquired companies and estimated probabilities of achievement. At each reporting date, the contingent consideration obligation is revalued to its estimated fair value and changes in fair value subsequent to the acquisition are reflected in income or expense in the consolidated statements of operations, and could cause a material impact to our operating results. Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration obligations may result from changes in discount periods and rates, changes in the timing and amount of revenue and/or earnings estimates and changes in probability assumptions with respect to the likelihood of achieving the various earn-out criteria

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Expenditures that enhance the useful lives of the assets are capitalized and depreciated. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When properties are retired or otherwise disposed of, related costs and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts.

A provision for depreciation of property and equipment is made on a basis considered adequate to amortize the related costs (net of salvage value) over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives are principally as follows: vehicles, 5 years; furniture and fixtures and office equipment, 5-10 years; leasehold improvements, term of lease or 15 years, whichever is less; machinery and equipment 5-10 years.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value assigned to the net assets acquired in business combinations. Goodwill is allocated to reporting units as of the acquisition date for the purpose of goodwill impairment testing. Currently, we operate in only one reporting unit. Our goodwill arose from our acquisition of NACSV in June 2014, as more fully discussed in Note 3. Intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite life such as goodwill are not amortized, but instead are reviewed at least annually for impairment. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, other than goodwill in 2014, we had no intangible assets with indefinite lives. We tested our goodwill for impairment during the fourth quarter of 2014 as a part of our annual business planning cycle. Goodwill is also tested between testing dates if an impairment condition or event is determined to have occurred. As a result of our annual assessment in 2014, we determined that the implied value of our existing goodwill was nil and, therefore, we recorded a $1,156,192 goodwill impairment charge in the fourth quarter of 2014. In performing our assessment, we placed emphasis on the estimated future cash flows from NACSV’s operations, which had declined from our initial expectations in part due to recent changes in its senior management, changes in the customer base, and the reduction in the existing backlog of customer orders. We based our valuation on the income valuation approach using a discounted cash flow model.

At December 31, 2014, we had one other intangible asset consisting of customer relationships, which arose from our acquisition of NACSV and was being amortized over its expected economic life of five years. The life was determined based upon the expected use of the asset, and other contractual provisions associated with the asset, the estimated average life of NACSV’s products, the stability of the industry, and other factors deemed appropriate. We continually evaluated whether events or circumstances occurred that indicated the remaining estimated useful life of our customer relationships asset may warrant revision or that the remaining balance of such asset may not be recoverable. We used an estimate of the related discounted cash flows over the remaining life of the asset in measuring whether the asset is recoverable. Based on our valuation during the annual assessment of 2014, we determined that the value of the customer relationships was fully impaired, as more fully discussed in Note 5.

See Note 5 for more information regarding goodwill and intangible assets.

Deferred Financing Costs

Costs incurred in connection with obtaining financing are deferred and classified as a discount to the related loan and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related loan. The amortization of deferred financing costs is included in finance charges. The Company recognized $397,859 and $0 of expense related to the amortization of deferred financing costs during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Inventory

Inventory at December 31, 2014 consists of the in-progress mobile command units and is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. We did not have any inventory at December 31, 2015. We order inventory/components upon receipt of a signed purchase order from a customer.

	December 31,
	2015		2014
Trailer Inventory	$	-	$	187,881
Work-in-process		-		57,877
Less: Reserve for inventory loss		-		(187,881	)
Total	$	-	$	57,877

Convertible Instruments

The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with accounting standards for “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.”

Accounting standards generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur, and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. Professional standards also provide an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional as defined under professional standards as “The Meaning of Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument.”

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with professional standards when “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features,” as those professional standards pertain to “Certain Convertible Instruments.” Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Original issue discounts (“OID”) under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note.

ASC 815-40 provides that, among other things, generally, if an event is not within the entity’s control could or require net cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset or a liability.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior period data to the current presentations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606, or ASU 2014-09. ASU 2014-09 establishes the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP. The standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. In applying the new revenue recognition model to contracts with customers, an entity: (1) identifies the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identifies the performance obligations in the contract(s); (3) determines the transaction price; (4) allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract(s); and (5) recognizes revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The accounting standards update applies to all contracts with customers except those that are within the scope of other topics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The accounting standards update also requires significantly expanded quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the implementation of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, or ASU 2014-15. ASU 2014-15 will explicitly require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosure in certain circumstances. The new standard will be effective for all entities in the first annual period ending after December 15, 2016. Earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is not early adopting ASU 2014-15. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the implementation of ASU 2014-15 will have on the Company’s financial statements, and the actual impact will be dependent upon the Company’s liquidity and the nature or significance of future events or conditions that exist upon adopting the updated standard.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, or ASU 2015-03. Under ASU 2015-03, the costs of issuing debt will no longer be recorded as an intangible asset, except when incurred before receipt of the funding from the associated debt liability. Rather, debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability will be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability, similar to the presentation of debt discounts. The costs will continue to be amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method. ASU 2015-03 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2015-03 requires retrospective application to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-03 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05, Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement, or ASU 2015-05. ASU 2015-05 provides guidance to entities about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. Under ASU 2015-05, if a software cloud computing arrangement contains a software license, entities should account for the license element of the arrangement in a manner consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If the arrangement does not contain a software license, entities should account for the arrangement as a service contract. ASU 2015-05 also removes the requirement to analogize to ASC 840-10, to determine the asset acquired in a software licensing arrangement. For public companies, ASU 2015-05 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-05 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, or ASU 2015-17. ASU 2015-17 provides guidance on balance sheet classification of deferred taxes. The new guidance requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. For public companies, ASU 2015-17 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-17 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, or ASU 2016-02. The new guidance requires lessees to recognize the assets and liabilities arising from leases on the balance sheet. For public companies, ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Business Combinations [Abstract]

ACQUISITIONS

North American Custom Specialty Vehicles (“NACSV”)

On June 16, 2014, we acquired all of the outstanding membership interest of NACSV in a transaction accounted for using the purchase method of accounting (the “Acquisition”). NACSV specializes in building mobile emergency operations centers (“MEOC’s”) and specialty vehicles for emergency management, first responders, national security and law enforcement operations.

As consideration for the consummation of the Acquisition, at the closing of the Acquisition, the Company paid $1,000,000 in cash to the selling members, and issued them 645,161 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $200,000 (the “Stock Consideration”). In connection with the Acquisition, the Company is required to make a true-up payment of the excess of total assets over $1.2 million, valued at $816,373, payable in shares of the Company’s common stock (the “True-Up Payment”), and additional consideration as certain events or transactions occur in the future, up to a maximum of $2.4 million, payable in shares of the Company’s common stock or in cash at the seller’s option (the “Contingent Consideration”). Additionally, the Company issued 1.8 million shares of common stock for acquisition services rendered in conjunction with the Acquisition valued at $664,000. The Company recorded nonrecurring charges of $843,488 during the year ended December 31, 2014 related to the direct costs of the Acquisition, consisting of the $664,000 value of the shares of common stock issued for acquisition services and $179,488 of cash costs for legal, accounting fees and due diligence fees.

The purchase price of the Acquisition totaled $2,713,079, comprised of $1,000,000 in cash, the Stock Consideration of $200,000, the True-Up Payment of $816,373, and the fair value of the Contingent Consideration of $696,706. The fair value of the Contingent Consideration was estimated based upon the present value of the expected future payouts. On October 17, 2014, we issued 2,635,074 shares of our common stock valued at $0.31 as settlement for the True-Up Payment.

Under the purchase method of accounting, the purchase price of the Acquisition was allocated to NACSV’s net tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the date of the completion of the Acquisition, as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents	$	135,425
Accounts receivable, net		370,481
Inventory		73,140
Prepaid Expenses		26,004
Costs in excess of billings		570,787
Property and equipment, net		68,157
Customer relationships		668,940
Goodwill		1,156,192
Total assets acquired		3,069,126
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities		37,811
Notes payable		304,605
Billings in excess of costs		13,631
Total liabilities assumed		356,047
Total purchase price	$	2,713,079

The fair values of certain assets and liabilities have been determined by management. No portion of the intangible assets, including goodwill, is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. During the fourth quarter of 2014, based on the annual testing for impairment, the implied value of the goodwill acquired in the Acquisition was nil and, accordingly, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge for the full amount of the goodwill of $1,156,192 as of December 31, 2014.

The results of operations of NACSV are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations from the date of the acquisition of June 16, 2014, including approximately $205,700 of revenue and approximately $317,000 of net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014. The following unaudited supplemental pro forma information assumes that the Acquisition had occurred as of January 1, 2014:

	2014 (Unaudited)
Revenues	$	2,658,798
Net loss from continuing operations	$	(11,255,057	)
Net loss per share from continuing operations	$	(0.11	)

              The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred if the Acquisition had occurred on the dates indicated or that may result in the future.

Share Purchase and Sale Agreement for Acquisition of Grupo Rontan Electro Metalurgica, S.A.

Effective October 13, 2015, the Company (as “Purchaser”) entered into the SPSA dated October 8, 2015 with Joao Alberto Bolzan and Jose Carlos Bolzan, both Brazilian residents (collectively, the “Sellers”) and Grupo Rontan Electro Metalurgica, S.A., a limited liability company duly organized and existing under the laws of Federative Republic of Brazil (“Rontan”) (collectively, the “Parties”), pursuant to which the Sellers agreed to sell 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Rontan to the Purchaser on the closing date.

The purchase price shall consist of a cash amount, a stock amount and an earn-out amount as follows: (i) Brazilian Real (“R”) $100 million (approximately US$26 million) to be paid by the Purchaser in equal monthly installments over a period of forty eight (48) months following the closing date; (ii) an aggregate of R$100 million (approximately US$26 million) in shares of the Purchaser’s common stock, valued at US$1.00 per share; and (iii) an earn-out payable within ten business days following receipt by the Purchaser of Rontan’s audited financial statements for the 12-months ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019. The earn-out shall be equal to the product of (i) Rontan’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) for the last 12 months, and (ii) twenty percent and is contingent upon Rontan’s EBITDA results for any earn-out period being at least 125% of Rontan’s EBITDA for the 12-months ended December 31, 2015. It is the intention of the parties that the stock amount will be used by Rontan to repay institutional debt outstanding as of the closing date.

Under the terms of a Finders Fees Agreement dated April 14, 2014, we have agreed to pay RLT Consulting Inc., a related party, a fee of 2% (two percent) of the Transaction Value, as defined in the agreement, of Rontan upon closing. The fee is payable one-half in cash and one-half in shares of our common stock.

Specific conditions to closing consist of:

a) Purchaser’s receipt of written limited assurance of an unqualified opinion with respect to Rontan’s audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2014 (the “Opinion”);

b) The commitment of sufficient investment by General American Capital Partners LLC (the “Institutional Investor”), in the Purchaser following receipt of the Opinion;

c) The accuracy of each Parties’ representations and warranties contained in the SPSA;

d) The continued operation of Rontan’s business in the ordinary course;

e) The maintenance of all of Rontan’s bank credit lines in the maximum amount of R$200 million (approximately US$52 million) under the same terms and conditions originally agreed with any such financial institutions, and the maintenance of all other types of funding arrangements. As of the date of the SPSA, Rontan’s financial institution debt consists of not more than R$200 million (approximately US$52 million), trade debt of not more than R$50 million (approximately US$13 million) and other fiscal contingencies of not more that R$95 million (approximately US$24.7 million);

f) Rontan shall enter into employment or consulting service agreements with key employees and advisors identified by the Purchaser, including Rontan’s Chief Executive Officer; and

g) The Sellers continued guarantee of Rontan’s bank debt for a period of 90 days following issuance of the Opinion, among other items.

The Institutional Investor has committed to invest sufficient capital to facilitate the transaction, subject to receipt of the Opinion, among other conditions.

Subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent provided for in the SPSA, the closing date of the transaction shall take place within 10 business days from the date of issuance of the Opinion.

Rontan is engaged in the manufacture and distribution of specialty vehicles and acoustic/visual signaling equipment for the industrial and automotive markets.

On April 1, 2016, we believed that we had satisfied or otherwise waived the conditions to closing (as disclosed under the SPSA, the closing was subject to specific conditions to closing, which were waivable by us,) and advised the Sellers of our intention to close the SPSA and demanded delivery of the Rontan Securities. The Sellers, however, notified us that they intend to terminate the SPSA. We believe that the Sellers had no right to terminate the SPSA and that notice of termination by the Sellers was not permitted under the terms of the SPSA.

On January 31, 2018, we announced that we initiated a lawsuit for damages against Grupo Rontan Metalurgica, S. A, (“Rontan”) and that company’s controlling shareholders, Joao Alberto Bolzan and Jose Carlos Bolzan. The action has been filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida. The complaint alleges that Rontan is wholly-owned by Joao Bolzan and Jose Bolzan. In the complaint, we further allege that Rontan and its shareholders improperly terminated a Share Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “SPA”) by which we were to acquire whole ownership of Rontan.

On February 5, 2018, United States District Court Southern District of Florida filed a Pretrial Scheduling Order and Order Referring Case to Mediation dated February 5, 2018 for the Company’s lawsuit against Grupo Rontan Electro Metalurgica, S.A., et al. The Case No. is 18-80106-Civ-Middlebrooks/Brannon. The court has issued a schedule outlining various documents and responses that are to be delivered by the parties as part of the discovery plan.

On April 25, 2018, the Note of Filing Proposed Summons was complete by the Company. On April 26, 2018, a summons was issed to Grupo Rontan Electro Metalrgica, S.A. Also, on May 15, 2018 the Company filed a motion for Issuance of Letters Rogatory.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

Goodwill arose in connection with our acquisition of NACSV in June 2014, which is more fully discussed in Note 3. We do not presently have any other intangible assets with indefinite lives.

In testing our goodwill during the fourth quarter of 2014, we used an income valuation approach based on information currently available. The approach considered the likelihood of future cash flows that we expect our NACSV business to generate over the next ten years, along with a terminal value based on a long-term sustainable growth rate subsequent to 2015 of 1%, which were discounted using a 20% discount rate. Based on our analysis, the implied value of our goodwill was nil and, accordingly, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge of as of December 31, 2014 as follows:

	December 31, 2014
Beginning balance	$	-
Acquired goodwill (see Note 3)		1,156,192
Goodwill impairment loss		(1,156,192	)
Ending balance	$	-

Intangible Asset

At December 31, 2014, we had an intangible asset of $596,471, which was comprised of customer relationships. The customer relationships arose from the Acquisition, as more fully discussed in Note 3. Based on valuation for the year ending December 31, 2014, we determined that the remaining value of the customer relationships of $596,471 was impaired. Therefore, we recorded an intangible asset impairment loss of $596,471 in the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014. This was due in part to the lack of revenue from sales of NACSV’s products during the year ending December 31, 2104, as well as to our expectations regarding future estimated discounted cash flows attributable to such asset. We have filed legal proceedings against the sellers of NACSV as more fully discussed in Note 10. We believe that certain misrepresentations were made to us regarding the business prospects of NACSV. In addition to the legal issue discussed in Note 10, we intend to pursue additional legal remedies related to NACSV’s business prospects.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

We had no Level 1 or Level 2 assets and liabilities at December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The derivative liability is a Level 3 fair value measurement.

The following is a summary of activity of Level 3 liabilities during the year ended December 31, 2015:

	Embedded Derivative Liabilities of Convertible Notes			Contingent Consideration
Balance at December 31, 2014	$	-		$	648,614
Initial fair value of embedded derivative liabilities of convertible notes payable issued during 2015		1,068,109			-
Change in fair value		(798,029	)		-
Decrease in amount owed to Dekle per EPA Potter County Sale		-			(648,614	)
Balance at December 31, 2015	$	270,080		$	-

Embedded Derivative Liabilities of Convertible Notes

The initial fair value of the bifurcated embedded derivative liabilities of convertible notes was estimated using the following weighted-average inputs: risk free interest rate – 0.08%; expected life -.49 years: volatility - 339%; dividend rate – 0%. At December 31, 2015, the fair value of the bifurcated embedded derivative liabilities of convertible notes was estimated using the following weighted-average inputs: risk free interest rate – 0.16%; term - .25 years; volatility - 224%; dividend rate – 0%.

Contingent Consideration

ASC Topic 805 requires that contingent consideration be recognized at fair value on the acquisition date and be re-measured each reporting period with subsequent adjustments recognized in the consolidated statement of operations. We estimate the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities based on financial projections of the acquired companies and estimated probabilities of achievement and discount the liabilities to present value using a weighted-average cost of capital. Contingent consideration is valued using significant inputs that are not observable in the market which are defined as Level 3 inputs pursuant to fair value measurement accounting. We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable, however, there is significant judgment involved. At each reporting date, the contingent consideration obligation is revalued to its estimated fair value, and changes in fair value subsequent to the acquisitions are reflected in income or expense in the consolidated statements of operations, and could cause a material impact to, and volatility in, our operating results. Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration obligations may result from changes in discount periods, changes in the timing and amount of revenue and/or earnings estimates and changes in probability assumptions with respect to the likelihood of achieving the various earn-out criteria.

As of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, contingent consideration included in liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet totaled $0 and $648,614, respectively. After further developments, we have reserved $648,614 to decrease amount owed to Dekle per the EPA Potter County Sale, We have filed legal proceedings against the sellers of NACSV as more fully discussed in Note 10.

Carrying Value of Other Current Assets and Other Current Liabilities

The Company’s management considers the carrying values of other current assets and other current liabilities to approximate fair values primarily due to their short-term nature.

NOTE PAYABLE

Convertible Notes Payable with Embedded Derivative Liabilities (Conversion Options)

During the year ended December 31, 2015, we entered into nine convertible notes payable with embedded derivative liabilities (conversion options) with an aggregate principal balance of $670,250. At December 31, 2015, two of these notes were outstanding as follows:

	December 31, 2015
Convertible note payable for $78,750 to LG Capital Funding, LLC (“LG Capital”) dated January 16, 2015, due January 16, 2016, of which $38,829 was repaid by conversion as of December 31, 2015, bearing interest at the rate of 8% per annum. Note may be converted by LG Capital into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to a 40% discount of the lowest closing bid price for 20 prior trading days including the notice of conversion date. (1)(2)(3)	$	39,921
Convertible note payable for $250,000 to JMJ Financial (“JMJ”) of which $82,500 was deemed funded on January 28, 2015 and $27,500 was deemed funded on April 20, 2015, of which $40,930 was repaid by conversion as of December 31, 2015. The note was issued with an original issue discount of 10% of amounts funded. The principal amount matures 24 months from the date of each funding, had a one-time 12% interest charge as it was not repaid within 90 days of the effective date, and is convertible at any time at the option of JMJ into shares of our common stock at the lesser of $0.075 per share or 60% of the average of the trade price in the 25 trading days prior to conversion. JMJ has the option to finance additional amounts up to the balance of the $250,000 during the term of the note. (1) (2)(4)	$	69,070
Total convertible notes payable with embedded derivative liability	$	108,991

(1) The embedded derivative liability associated with the conversion option of the note was bifurcated from the note and recorded at its fair value on the date of issuance and at each reporting date.

(2) Note was due on January 16, 2016. We have not yet repaid this note and it is, therefore, in default. We have also not maintained the required number of shares of our common stock in reserve for this note as more fully discussed below.

(3) On December 12, 2017, LG Capital Funding, LLC and the Company entered into a Convertible Note Redemption Agreement to pay back the balance owed as further discussed below.

(4) On December 13, 2017, JMJ Financial and the Company entered into a Repayment Agreement to pay back the balance owed as further discussed below.

Under the terms of the two convertible promissory notes outstanding at December 31, 2015, we are required to maintain a minimum number of shares of our common stock in reserve for conversions. In the case of the note with JMJ, the reserve amount is set at 26,650,000 shares of our common stock. However, under the terms of the note with LG Capital we are required to maintain a minimum share reserve equal to four times the potential number of shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion, or 66,204,427 shares at December 31, 2015. As a result of declines in the fair value of our common stock, we did not have sufficient authorized shares to maintain this required four times share reserve at December 31, 2015. Accordingly, the note holder had the right to accelerate the payment due (approximately $43,033 of principal and interest was due at December 31, 2015). In addition, they have the right to require that additional shares and/or monies be paid in connection with this technical default. At December 31, 2015, we have not accrued any penalties or penalty interest associated with this note, nor have we been notified by the lender of a technical default. Because the conversion prices vary with changes in the value of our common stock, the number of shares into which the outstanding notes payable and accrued interest are convertible will continue to vary, which may result in additional technical defaults if the price of our common stock decreases. As soon as we are able, we intend to request shareholder approval to increase the number of authorized shares of our common stock in order to satisfy our obligations to maintain sufficient authorized share reserves under the terms of our convertible notes. In addition, the two outstanding convertible notes also contain certain representations, warranties, covenants and other events of default, including in the case of one of the notes maintaining our common stock listing on the OTCQB exchange.

At inception the total estimated fair value of the embedded derivative liability associated with the conversion options of all nine such convertible notes payable issued during 2015 was $1,068,109 of which $798,029 was classified as a debt discount and amortized under the effective interest method during the year ended December 31, 2015, and $652,031 was immediately recognized as interest expense upon issuance, as it exceeded the principal balance of the related notes. During 2015, we recognized a gain on the change in the fair value of the derivative liability of $798,029. During 2015, we issued 419,364,293 shares of our common stock upon conversions of principal and accrued interest totaling $529,166. We also used $59,000 of proceeds from a revenue based factoring agreement to repay in cash two of the convertible notes payable. The factoring agreement is more fully discussed below.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, we used $59,000 of proceeds from a revenue based factoring agreement to repay in cash two of the convertible notes payable. The factoring agreement is more fully discussed below.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, we entered into a Convertible Note Redemption Agreement with LG Capital Funding, LLC. The Company shall wire redemption payment as follows:

● $6,500 by December 29, 2017

● $6,500 by January 31, 2018

● $6,500 by February 28, 2018

● $25,000 by March 30, 2018

● The remaining balance by April 30, 2018

During the year ended December 31, 2017, we entered into a Repayment Agreement with JMJ Financial. The Company agreed to repay the balance as follows by wire:

● $12,500 within five business days of the Issuer securing funding, provided that such payment shall be made on January 31, 2018

● $12,500 within 45 days after the first payment

● $12,500 within 45 days after the second payment

● $47,014 within 30 days after the third payment

Revenue Based Factoring Agreements

During the year ended December 31, 2015, we entered into two revenue based factoring agreements as follows:

(2) The agreement contains certain protections against default, including prohibiting NACSV from changing its arrangement with its bank in any way that is adverse to Power Up and NACSV interrupting the operation of its business, among others. Events of default include: (i) the violation of any term or covenant under the agreement, (ii) the failure of NACSV to pay its debts when due and (iii) the transfer or sale of all or substantially all of NACSV’s asset, amount others.

(3) We are currently in default under the terms of the two factoring agreements as we have not made the specified daily repayment amounts aggregating $20,540 and $107,266 as of December 31, 2015. At December 31, 2015, we have not accrued any penalties or interest that might be due as a result of the defaults. The default was settled on September 13, 2017, and the judgement paid in full as of May 15, 2018. See Note 10.

Convertible Notes Payable to Related Parties

Convertible notes payable to related parties at December 31, 2014 consist of the following (we did not have convertible notes payable to related parties at December 31, 2015):

	December 31, 2014
Convertible note payable to an entity controlled by our Chairman and CEO, bore interest at 8% per annum, due December 8, 2016.

(1) We used the purchase price proceeds to satisfy in full the obligations under two convertible notes payable with embedded derivative liabilities.

The 8% convertible notes payable to related parties was convertible into common stock at the rate of $0.09 per share. The Company determined that the conversion feature was considered a beneficial conversion feature and determined its value to be $30,667 as of December 8, 2014, which the Company recorded as a debt discount to the notes. As a result of the repayment of the notes in 2015, $22,170 of the unamortized debt discount was recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt in the year ended December 31, 2015.

We may be involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of our business, and our management cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these legal proceedings with certainty. The Company is plaintiff or defendant in the following actions:

Dekle, et. al. v. Global Digital Solutions, Inc. et. al.

Brian A. Dekle and John Ramsay filed suit against the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, North American Custom Specialty Vehicles, Inc. (“NACSV”), in the Circuit Court of Baldwin Alabama, on January 14, 2015, case no. 05-CV-2015-9000050.00, relating to our acquisition of NACSV (the ''Dekle Action"). Prior to instituting the Dekle Action, in June 2014, the Company had entered into an equity purchase agreement with Dekle and Ramsay to purchase their membership interest in North American Custom Specialty Vehicles, LLC. The Dekle Action originally sought payment for $300,000 in post-closing consideration Dekle and Ramsay allege they are owed pursuant to the equity purchase agreement.

On February 9, 2015, the Company and NACSV removed the Dekle Action to federal court in the United States District Court in and for the Southern District of Alabama, case no. 1:15-CV-00069. The Company and NACSV subsequently moved to dismiss the complaint for (1) failing to state a cause of action, and (2) lack of personal jurisdiction. Alternatively, the Company and NACSV sought a transfer of the case to the United States District Court in and for Middle District of Florida.

In response to the Company’s and NACSV's motion to dismiss, Dekle and Ramsay filed an amended complaint on March 2, 2015 seeking specific performance and alleging breach of contract, violations of Security and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Rule 10b-5, and violations of the Alabama Securities Act. The amended complaint also names the Company’s Chairman, President, and CEO, Richard J. Sullivan (“Sullivan”), as a defendant. On March 17, 2015, the Company, NACSV and Sullivan filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint seeking dismissal for failure to state valid causes of action, for lack of personal jurisdiction, or alternatively to transfer the case to the United States District Court in and for the Middle District of Florida. Dekle and Ramsay responded on March 31, 2015, and the Company filed its response thereto on April 7, 2015.

 

On June 2, 2015, Dekle passed away.  On June 5, 2015, the Court denied the Company’s motion to transfer the case to Florida.   On June 10, 2015, the Company filed a motion to reconsider the Court’s denial of its motion to transfer the case to Florida. On September 30, 2105, the Court granted the Company’s Renewed Motion to Transfer Venue. The case was transferred to the Middle District of Florida, where it is currently pending.

On June 15, 2015, Ramsay filed a second amended complaint. On June 25, 2015, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint. The Company’s Motion to Dismiss was denied.

On July 27, 2017, the Company and Dekle and Ramsay came to a Settlement Agreement. The Company and the plaintiff came to the following agreements:

vi. Judgment is due to be entered against the Company in the amount of $300,000 if the sum of $20,000 as noted in iv is not paid.

vii. The Company grants the plaintiffs vehicles and trailers in connection to this proceeding.

viii. The Company will assist the plaintiffs in obtaining possession of the said vehicles.

The case was filed in the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit in and for Brevard County Florida, case no. 05-2015-CA-012250. On February 18, 2015 (i) defendants Communications Laboratories, Inc., ComLabs Global, LLC and Roland Lussier and (ii) defendant Wallace Bailey filed their respective motions to dismiss seeking, among other things, dismissal for failure to state valid causes of action, lumping and failure to post a non-resident bond.

Common Stock Warrant

We have issued warrants, which are fully vested and available for exercise, as follows:

Class of Warrant		Issued in connection with or for	Number Outstanding		Exercise Price		Date of Issue		Date Vest	Date of Expiration
	A-2	Services		1,000,000	$	0.15		May, 2013	May, 2014		May, 2018

We recognized compensation costs of $604,168 related to the amortization of the fair value of the warrants in the year ended December 31, 2014. At December 31, 2014 the fair value of warrants had been fully amortized.

All warrants are exercisable at any time through the date of expiration. All agreements provides for the number of shares to be adjusted in the event of a stock split, a reverse stock split, a share exchange or other conversion or exchange event in which case the number of warrants and the exercise price of the warrants shall be adjusted on a proportional basis.

The following is a summary of outstanding and exercisable warrants at December 31, 2015:

		Outstanding						Exercisable
Range of Exercise Prices		Weighted Average Number Outstanding at 12/31/15		Outstanding Remaining Contractual Life (in yrs.)		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Number Exercisable at 12/31/15		Weighted Average Exercise Price
$	0.15		1,000,000		2.3	$	0.15		1,000,000	$	0.15
$	0.50		500,000		2.5	$	0.50		500,000	$	0.50
$	1.00		1,000,000		.8	$	1.00		1,000,000	$	1.00
$	0.56		2,500,000		1.90	$	0.37		2,500,000	$	0.56

The intrinsic value of warrants outstanding at December 31, 2015 was $0. Aggregate intrinsic value represents the value of the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of the fiscal period in excess of the exercise price of the warrant multiplied by the number of warrants outstanding or exercisable.

We determined the value of warrants issued using the following valuation amounts:

Warrant		Fair Value		Dividend Yield			Volatility			Contractual Lives (Yrs.)		Risk-Free Rate
	A-2	$	300,000		0.00	%		593.00	%		5.0		0.84	%
	A-3	$	250,000		0.00	%		598.12	%		5.0		1.20	%
	A-4	$	800,000		0.00	%		647.97	%		3.0		0.64	%

The expected life represents an estimate of the weighted average period of time that options are expected to remain outstanding given consideration to vesting schedules and the Company’s historical exercise patterns. Expected volatility is estimated based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The risk free interest rate is estimated based on the U.S. Federal Reserve’s historical data for the maturity of nominal treasury instruments that corresponds to the expected term of the option. The expected dividend yield is 0% based on the fact that we have never paid dividends and have no present intention to pay dividends

We account for our stock-based compensation plans in accordance with ASC 718-10. Under the provisions of ASC 718-10, the fair value of each stock option is estimated on the date of grant using a BSM option-pricing formula, and amortizing that value to expense over the expected performance or service periods using the straight-line attribution method. The fair value of the stock options issued during the year ended December 31, 2015 was estimated using the BSM pricing model with the following weighted-average inputs: risk free interest rate of 1.5%; expected term of 5.08 years: volatility of 352.5% and dividend rate of 0%. The weighted average values of the assumptions used to value the options granted in the year ended December 31, 2014 were as follows: risk-free interest rates of 1.83%; expected term of 10 years; expected volatility of 684.6% and expected dividend yield of 0%. The expected life represents an estimate of the weighted average period of time that options are expected to remain outstanding given consideration to vesting schedules and the Company’s historical exercise patterns. Expected volatility is estimated based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The risk free interest rate is estimated based on the U.S. Federal Reserve’s historical data for the maturity of nominal treasury instruments that corresponds to the expected term of the option. The expected dividend yield is 0% based on the fact that we have never paid dividends and have no present intention to pay dividends.

During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, we recorded stock-based compensation cost related to the outstanding stock options of $308,143 and $3,558,733, respectively. At December 31, 2015, the unamortized value of the outstanding stock options was $91,847. The intrinsic value of options outstanding at December 31, 2015 was $0. Aggregate intrinsic value represents the value of the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of the fiscal period in excess of the exercise price of the option multiplied by the number of options outstanding.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, 390,000 stock options that had not yet vested were forfeited and 1,500,000 vested stock options granted to Mr. Loppert, our former CFO, were forfeited by their terms.

Restricted Stock Units

In August 2014 we granted Stephen L. Norris, then Chairman and CEO of our wholly owned subsidiary, GDSI International, 12 million restricted stock units (“RSU’s”) convertible into 12 million shares of the Company’s common stock, with a grant date fair market value of $3,600,000 as of July 1, 2014, the effective grant date. The grant was made under our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan. 4,000,000 RSU’s will vest in respect of each fiscal year of GDSI International from 2015 through 2017 if the company has achieved at least 90% of the total revenue targets set forth in the agreement. If less than 90% of the target is achieved in respect of any such fiscal year, then the number of RSU’s vesting for that fiscal year shall be 4,000,000 times the applicable percentage shown below; provided that, if the company shall exceed 100% of the revenue target for the 2016 or 2017 fiscal year, and shall have failed to reach 90% of the target for a prior fiscal year, the excess over 100% shall be applied to reduce the deficiency in the prior year(s), and an additional number of RSU’s shall vest to reflect the increased revenue for such prior fiscal year. Any such excess shall be applied first to reduce any deficiency for the 2015 fiscal year and then for the 2016 fiscal year. The vesting of the RSU’s shall be effective upon the issuance of the audited financial statements of the Company for the applicable fiscal year, and shall be based upon the total revenue of GDSI International as reflected in such financial statements. Effective January 9, 2015, Mr. Norris resigned and forfeited all rights in and to his RSU’s.

On October 10, 2014 we granted an employee 1 million RSU’s convertible into 1 million shares of the Company’s common stock, with a grant date fair market value of $100,000. The grant was made under our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan. 333,333 RSU’s will vest in respect of each calendar year (commencing January 1 and ending December 31) of the Company from 2015 through 2017 if the company has achieved at least 90% of the total revenue and EBITDA midpoint targets set forth in the agreement. If less than 90% of the target is achieved in respect of any such fiscal year, then the number of RSU’s vesting for that fiscal year shall be 333,333 times the applicable percentage set forth in the agreement; provided that, if the company shall exceed 100% of the revenue and EBITDA midpoint target for the 2016 or 2017 calendar year, and shall have failed to reach 90% of the target for a prior calendar year, the excess over 100% shall be applied to reduce the deficiency in the prior year(s), and an additional number of RSU’s shall vest to reflect the increased revenue for such prior calendar year. Any such excess shall be applied first to reduce any deficiency for the 2015 calendar year and then for the 2016 calendar year. The vesting of the RSU’s shall be effective upon the issuance of the audited financial statements of the Company for the applicable calendar year, and shall be based upon the total revenue and EBITDA of the acquired companies as reflected in such financial statements.

A summary of RSU’s outstanding as of December 31, 2015 and changes during the year then ended is presented below:

	Number			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value			Aggregate Intrinsic Value

We recorded stock-based compensation expense related to these RSU’s of $51,747 and $1,112,934 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. As of December 31, 2015, there was $35,317 of total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to 1 million unvested RSU’s that will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the performance periods of the award through December 2017. The aggregate intrinsic value of nonvested RSU’s was $0 at December 31, 2015.

Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 are summarized below.

	2015			2014
Deferred tax assets:
Net operating loss carryforwards	$	3,559,000		$	709,300
Accrued expenses		42,000			204,000

Valuation allowance		(8,775,000	)		3,805,300
	$	-		$	-

As of December 31, 2015, the Company had approximately $4,627,000 of federal net operating loss carry forwards. These carry forwards, if not used, will begin to expire in 2028. Current or future ownership changes, including issuances of common stock under the terms of the Company’s convertible notes payable that were entered into during 2015 and the closing of the Rontan Transaction may severely limit the future realization of these net operating losses.

The Company provides for a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that they will not realize a portion of the deferred tax assets. The Company has established a valuation allowance against their net deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty that enough taxable income will be generated in those taxing jurisdictions to utilize the assets. Therefore, they have not reflected any benefit of such deferred tax assets in the accompanying financial statements. The Company’s net deferred tax asset and valuation allowance decreased by $1,346,000 in the year ended December 31, 2015.

The Company has reviewed all income tax positions taken or that are expected to be taken for all open years and determined that their income tax positions are appropriately stated and supported for all open years. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for years after 2011 due to unexpired net operating loss carryforwards originating in and subsequent to that year. The Company may be subject to income tax examinations for the various taxing authorities which vary by jurisdiction.

The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits as additional income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations. As of January 1, 2015, there were had no unrecognized tax benefits, or any tax related interest or penalties.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the various states in which they operate. The former members of NACSV are required to file separate federal and state tax returns for NACSV for the periods prior to our acquisition of NACSV. The Company files consolidated tax returns for subsequent periods. The Company has not yet filed their U.S. federal and certain state tax returns for 2015 and currently do not have any examinations ongoing. Tax returns for the years 2012 onwards are subject to federal, state or local examinations.

Business Combinations [Abstract]

ACQUISITION OF AIRTRONIC AND NOTE RECEIVABLE FROM AIRTRONIC

On October 22, 2012, we entered into an Agreement of Merger and Plan of Reorganization (“Merger Agreement”) to acquire 70% of Airtronic USA, Inc. (“Airtronic”), a debtor in possession under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in a case pending in the US Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division (the “Court”) once Airtronic successfully reorganized and emerged from bankruptcy (the “Merger”). During the period from October 2012 through November 2013, GDSI was actively involved in the day to day management of Airtronic pending the completion of the Merger.

Contemporaneously, on October 22, 2012, we entered into a Debtor In Possession Note Purchase Agreement (“Bridge Loan”) with Airtronic. We agreed to lend Airtronic a maximum of $2,000,000, with an initial advance of $750,000 evidenced by an 8¼% Secured Promissory Note made by Airtronic in favor of the Company (the “Original Note”) and a Security Agreement pledging all of Airtronic’s assets. As of December 31, 2012 we had not advanced any funds to Airtronic under the Bridge Loan and Original Note. In March 2013, the Company and Airtronic amended the Bridge Loan to provide for a maximum advance of up to $700,000 in accordance with draws submitted by Airtronic and approved by the Company in accordance with the budget set forth in the amendment. On August 5, 2013, we entered into the Second Bridge Loan Modification and Ratification Agreement, received a new 8¼% secured promissory note in principal amount of $550,000 (the “Second Note”), and entered into a Security Agreement with the CEO of Airtronic, which granted a security interest in certain intellectual property for patent-pending applications and trademarks that were registered in the CEO’s name. On October 10, 2013, we entered into the Third Bridge Loan Modification and Ratification Agreement, and received a new 8¼% secured promissory note for $200,000 (the “Third Note”).

On October 2, 2013, Airtronic’s amended plan of reorganization (the “Plan”) was confirmed by the Court, but the Plan was never substantially consummated and was terminated. Under the terms of the Plan, Airtronic needed to close the Merger with the Company on or before December 2, 2013 which Airtronic refused to do, and, as a result, the Plan terminated and the reorganized Airtronic re-vested in the bankruptcy estate of Airtronic as a debtor-in-possession.

On March 31, 2014, Airtronic filed a First Amended Modified Plan of Reorganization (“First Modified Plan”) which was confirmed on April 28, 2014. On May 14, 2014 Airtronic repaid the Original Note, the Second Note and the Third Note together with all accrued interest thereon in the total amount of $1,509,056. On August 12, 2014, we received $414,761 that we were awarded for legal fees and expenses incurred.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

We have completed an evaluation of all subsequent events after the balance sheet date of December 31, 2015 through the date this Annual Report on Form 10-K is issued to ensure that this filing includes appropriate disclosure of events, both recognized in the financial statements as of December 31, 2015 and events which occurred subsequently but were not recognized in the financial statements. We have concluded that no subsequent events have occurred that require recognition or disclosure, except as disclosed within these financial statements and except as described below:

Such milestone payments consist of (i) an initial purchase price payment of $300,000, which the Company received on December 22, 2017, (ii) $150,000 within 30 days of the Lawsuit surviving a motion to dismiss on the primary claims, (iii) $100,000 within 30 days of the close of all discovery in the Lawsuit and (iv) $650,000 within 30 days of the Lawsuit surviving a motion for summary judgment and challenges on the primary claims. As part of the agreement, the Company shall pay the investor an investment return of 100% of the litigation proceeds to recoup all money invested, plus 27.5% of the total litigation proceeds received by the Company.

On December 23, 2017, the Company entered into a $485,000 Demand Promissory Note with Vox Business Trust, LLC (the “Purchaser”.) The note was in settlement of the amounts accrued under a consulting agreement, consisting of $200,000 owed for retainer payments through December 2017, as well as $285,000 owed to the Purchaser when the Resolution Progress Funding was met on December 22, 2017.

The 5,000,000 shares were issued on March 13, 2018 at $0.0120 per share. As of the issuance date of these financial statements, the note remains outstanding.

As part of the agreement, the Purchaser may not demand payment prior to the date of the Resolution Funding Date. The Company also agreed to grant 5,000,000 shares within 90 days of the Resolution Progress Funding Date and 10,000,000 shares within 90 days of the Resolution Funding Date per the May 2016 consulting agreement.

On February 9, 2018 the Company issued 9,034,091 shares of common stock for the full conversion of a $15,000 convertible note under the terms of a February 2017 convertible note agreement.

On April 3, 2018, the Company entered into an Investment Return Purchase Agreement with an accredited investor (the “Purchaser”) for proceeds of $50,000 (the “Investment Agreement”). Under the terms of the Investment Agreement, the Company agreed to pay the Purchaser the $50,000 proceeds plus a 50% return, or $25,000 (the “Investment Return”) within seven (7) months from the date of the Investment Agreement. The Investment Return is being recognized as interest expense over the seven months. In addition, the Company agreed to issue to the Purchaser 1,000,000 warrants to purchase common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, exercisable for a period of five (5) years. The warrants were valued using the Black Scholes Merton model, resulting in a fair value of $9,000. The key valuation assumptions used consist, in part, of the price of the Company’s common stock of $0.009 at issuance date; a risk-free interest rate of 2.60% and expected volatility of the Company’s common stock, of 234.58%. Due to the short-term nature of the Investment Agreement and the insignificant amount, the warrant fair value was immediately expensed as a financing cost. As of the issuance date of these financial statements, the Investment Return has not been paid to the Purchaser, and $75,000 is outstanding.

On May 1, 2018, the Company entered into a $36,000 promissory note with an individual with $5,000 original issue discount for net proceeds of $31,000. As of the issuance date of these financial statements, the note remains outstanding.

Such Investment Return shall be paid earlier if the Company secures funding totaling $500,000 within 90 days from the date of the Investment Agreement. In addition, the Company agreed to issue to the Purchaser 2,000,000 warrants to purchase common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, exercisable for a period of three (3) years. As of the issuance date of these financial statements, the Investment Agreement remains outstanding.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)

12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2015

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have sustained losses and experienced negative cash flows from operations since inception, and for the year ended December 31, 2015 we incurred a net loss of $2,689,331 and used net cash of $767,390 to fund operating activities. At December 31, 2015, we had cash and cash equivalents of $2,944, an accumulated deficit of $31,667,385, a working capital deficit of $964,987 and stockholders’ deficit of $957,651. We have funded our activities to date almost exclusively from equity and debt financings. For a more complete discussion, please refer to Note 17, subsequent events.

Our cash position is critically deficient, and payments essential to our ability to operate are not being made in the ordinary course. Failure to raise capital in the coming days to fund our operations and failure to generate positive cash flow to fund such operations in the future will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We are in default under the terms of our loan agreements, as more fully discussed in Note 8. We need to raise additional funds immediately and continue to raise funds until we begin to generate sufficient cash from operations, and we may not be able to obtain the necessary financing on acceptable terms, or at all.

We will continue to require substantial funds to continue development of our core business. Management’s plans in order to meet our operating cash flow requirements include financing activities such as private placements of common stock, and issuances of debt and convertible debt instruments, and the establishment of strategic relationships which we expect will lead to the generation of additional revenue or acquisition opportunities.

While we believe that we will be successful in obtaining the necessary financing to fund our operations, there are no assurances that such additional funding will be achieved or that we will succeed in our future operations. On February 2, 2018, we announced that we had secured $1.2 million in a non-convertible financing from a New York-based institution.

Our independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of our history of net losses. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon our ability to successfully execute the plans to pursue acquisitions, and raise the funds necessary to complete such acquisitions. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and our wholly owned subsidiaries, NACSV, GDSI Florida, LLC and Global Digital Solutions, LLC, dba GDSI International. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP in the United States of America, or U.S., requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on the knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results. Included in these estimates are assumptions used in; (i) determining the lives of long-lived assets; (ii) Black-Scholes-Merton, or BSM, valuation models used to estimate the fair value of stock-based compensation and warrants; (iii) determining the value of a promissory note with an embedded convertible option; (iv) the amount of beneficial conversion feature of convertible debt; (v) the liability for estimated contingent consideration payable and (vi) determining valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, among other items. 

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following conditions are satisfied: (1) there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement; (2) the product or service has been provided to the customer; (3) the amount paid by the customer is fixed or determinable; and (4) the collection of each amount is probable. The Company records revenue when it is realizable and earned upon shipment of the finished products or when the service has been provided.

Advertising

All advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Provision for Income Taxes

Income taxes are calculated based upon the asset and liability method of accounting. Deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard to allow for recognition of such an asset. In addition, realization of an uncertain income tax position must be estimated as “more likely than not” (i.e., greater than 50% likelihood of receiving a benefit) before it can be recognized in the financial statements. Further, the recognition of tax benefits recorded in the financial statements, if any, is based on the amount most likely to be realized assuming a review by tax authorities having all relevant information.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  At December 31, 2015 and 2014, cash and cash equivalents, consisting of cash in bank, were $2,944 and $160,102, respectively.

Accounts Receivable

We record accounts receivable at the invoiced amount and we do not charge interest. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to reserve for potentially uncollectible receivables. We review the accounts receivable by customers which are past due to identify specific customers with known disputes or collectability issues. In determining the amount of the reserve, we make judgments about the creditworthiness of significant customers based on ongoing credit evaluations. Allowance for doubtful accounts was $15,085 at December 31, 2014. We did not have an allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2015, due to a significant decrease in accounts receivable.

Prepaid Expenses

Prepaid expenses consist primarily of prepaid insurance totaling $99,111 and $81,499 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which is amortized on a straight-line basis over the policy period.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying amounts of debt were also estimated to approximate fair value. The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurement). This fair value measurement framework applies at both initial and subsequent measurement.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined by ASC 820 are as follows:

● Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

● Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

● Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by market data.

Convertible Notes with Conversion Options

We have entered into convertible notes with related parties that contain conversion options, whereby the outstanding principal and accrued interest may be converted, by the holder, into shares of our common stock at a price which represented a 30% discount to the price of our common stock at the time of issuance. We measure the fair value of the notes at the time of issuance, which is the result of the share price conversion discount, and record the discount (beneficial conversion feature) as a reduction of debt. We then accrete the discount as interest expense utilizing the effective interest rate method over the life of the debt.

Derivative Financial Instruments

During the year ended December 31, 2015, we issued convertible notes payable to third parties, which contain variable conversion options allowing the holders to convert the notes payable into shares of our common stock at discounts ranging from 39% to 40%. Each of these notes is more fully described in Note 8.

We account for these conversion options embedded in the convertible notes payable to third parties in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC’) 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Subtopic ASC 815-15, Embedded Derivatives generally requires companies to bifurcate conversion options embedded in the convertible notes from their host instruments and to account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. Derivative liabilities are recognized in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value as Derivative Liabilities and based on the criteria specified in FASB ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s own Equity. The estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities is calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model and such estimates are revalued at each balance sheet date, with changes recorded to other income or expense as Change in Fair Value – Derivatives in the consolidated statement of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or equity, is evaluated at the instrument origination date and reviewed at the end of each event date (i.e. conversions, payments, etc.) and the measurement period end date for financial reporting, as applicable. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified on the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument would be required within twelve months of the balance sheet date.

Convertible Securities

Based upon ASC 815-15, we have adopted a sequencing approach regarding the application of ASC 815-40 to convertible securities issued subsequent to December 31, 2014. We will evaluate our contracts based upon the earliest issuance date. In the event partial reclassification of contracts subject to ASC 815-40-25 is necessary, due to our inability to demonstrate we have sufficient shares authorized and unissued, shares will be allocated on the basis of issuance date, with the earliest issuance date receiving first allocation of shares. If a reclassification of an instrument were required, it would result in the instrument issued latest being reclassified first.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share ("EPS")

Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS includes the effect from potential issuance of common stock, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants and the assumed conversion of convertible notes.

The following table summarizes the securities that were excluded from the diluted per share calculation because the effect of including these potential shares was antidilutive:

	Year ended December 31,
	2015		2014
Convertible notes and accrued interest		48,513,147		766,666
Stock options		16,100,000		5,840,000
Warrants		2,500,000		4,250,000
Vested but unissued restricted stock awards		375,000		2,187,503
Restricted stock units		1,000,000		-
Price protection		-		1,854,838
Potentially dilutive securities		68,488,147		14,899,007

Stock Based Compensation

We adopted the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, "Compensation – Stock Compensation”. Under the fair value recognition provisions, we are required to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for share-based compensation measured at the grant date fair value of the award.

The Company’s accounting policy for equity instruments issued to advisors, consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of FASB ASC 505-50. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the advisor, consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the advisor, consultant or vendor’s performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to advisors and consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the advisor or consulting agreement. Stock-based compensation related to non-employees is accounted for based on the fair value of the related stock or options or the fair value of the services, whichever is more readily determinable.

Contingent Consideration for Business Acquisitions

Acquisitions may include contingent consideration payments based on future financial measures of an acquired company. Contingent consideration is required to be recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date. We estimate the fair value of these liabilities based on financial projections of the acquired companies and estimated probabilities of achievement. At each reporting date, the contingent consideration obligation is revalued to its estimated fair value and changes in fair value subsequent to the acquisition are reflected in income or expense in the consolidated statements of operations, and could cause a material impact to our operating results. Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration obligations may result from changes in discount periods and rates, changes in the timing and amount of revenue and/or earnings estimates and changes in probability assumptions with respect to the likelihood of achieving the various earn-out criteria

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Expenditures that enhance the useful lives of the assets are capitalized and depreciated. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When properties are retired or otherwise disposed of, related costs and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts.

A provision for depreciation of property and equipment is made on a basis considered adequate to amortize the related costs (net of salvage value) over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives are principally as follows: vehicles, 5 years; furniture and fixtures and office equipment, 5-10 years; leasehold improvements, term of lease or 15 years, whichever is less; machinery and equipment 5-10 years.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value assigned to the net assets acquired in business combinations. Goodwill is allocated to reporting units as of the acquisition date for the purpose of goodwill impairment testing. Currently, we operate in only one reporting unit. Our goodwill arose from our acquisition of NACSV in June 2014, as more fully discussed in Note 3. Intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite life such as goodwill are not amortized, but instead are reviewed at least annually for impairment. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, other than goodwill in 2014, we had no intangible assets with indefinite lives. We tested our goodwill for impairment during the fourth quarter of 2014 as a part of our annual business planning cycle. Goodwill is also tested between testing dates if an impairment condition or event is determined to have occurred. As a result of our annual assessment in 2014, we determined that the implied value of our existing goodwill was nil and, therefore, we recorded a $1,156,192 goodwill impairment charge in the fourth quarter of 2014. In performing our assessment, we placed emphasis on the estimated future cash flows from NACSV’s operations, which had declined from our initial expectations in part due to recent changes in its senior management, changes in the customer base, and the reduction in the existing backlog of customer orders. We based our valuation on the income valuation approach using a discounted cash flow model.

At December 31, 2014, we had one other intangible asset consisting of customer relationships, which arose from our acquisition of NACSV and was being amortized over its expected economic life of five years. The life was determined based upon the expected use of the asset, and other contractual provisions associated with the asset, the estimated average life of NACSV’s products, the stability of the industry, and other factors deemed appropriate. We continually evaluated whether events or circumstances occurred that indicated the remaining estimated useful life of our customer relationships asset may warrant revision or that the remaining balance of such asset may not be recoverable. We used an estimate of the related discounted cash flows over the remaining life of the asset in measuring whether the asset is recoverable. Based on our valuation during the annual assessment of 2014, we determined that the value of the customer relationships was fully impaired, as more fully discussed in Note 5.

See Note 5 for more information regarding goodwill and intangible assets.

Deferred Financing Costs

Costs incurred in connection with obtaining financing are deferred and classified as a discount to the related loan and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related loan. The amortization of deferred financing costs is included in finance charges. The Company recognized $397,859 and $0 of expense related to the amortization of deferred financing costs during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Inventory

Inventory at December 31, 2014 consists of the in-progress mobile command units and is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. We did not have any inventory at December 31, 2015. We order inventory/components upon receipt of a signed purchase order from a customer.

Work-in-process		-		57,877

Total	$	-	$	57,877

Convertible Instruments

The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with accounting standards for “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.”

Accounting standards generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur, and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. Professional standards also provide an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional as defined under professional standards as “The Meaning of Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument.”

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with professional standards when “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features,” as those professional standards pertain to “Certain Convertible Instruments.” Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Original issue discounts (“OID”) under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note.

ASC 815-40 provides that, among other things, generally, if an event is not within the entity’s control could or require net cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset or a liability.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior period data to the current presentations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606, or ASU 2014-09. ASU 2014-09 establishes the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP. The standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. In applying the new revenue recognition model to contracts with customers, an entity: (1) identifies the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identifies the performance obligations in the contract(s); (3) determines the transaction price; (4) allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract(s); and (5) recognizes revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The accounting standards update applies to all contracts with customers except those that are within the scope of other topics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The accounting standards update also requires significantly expanded quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the implementation of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, or ASU 2014-15. ASU 2014-15 will explicitly require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosure in certain circumstances. The new standard will be effective for all entities in the first annual period ending after December 15, 2016. Earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is not early adopting ASU 2014-15. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the implementation of ASU 2014-15 will have on the Company’s financial statements, and the actual impact will be dependent upon the Company’s liquidity and the nature or significance of future events or conditions that exist upon adopting the updated standard.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, or ASU 2015-03. Under ASU 2015-03, the costs of issuing debt will no longer be recorded as an intangible asset, except when incurred before receipt of the funding from the associated debt liability. Rather, debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability will be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability, similar to the presentation of debt discounts. The costs will continue to be amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method. ASU 2015-03 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2015-03 requires retrospective application to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-03 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05, Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement, or ASU 2015-05. ASU 2015-05 provides guidance to entities about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. Under ASU 2015-05, if a software cloud computing arrangement contains a software license, entities should account for the license element of the arrangement in a manner consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If the arrangement does not contain a software license, entities should account for the arrangement as a service contract. ASU 2015-05 also removes the requirement to analogize to ASC 840-10, to determine the asset acquired in a software licensing arrangement. For public companies, ASU 2015-05 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-05 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, or ASU 2015-17. ASU 2015-17 provides guidance on balance sheet classification of deferred taxes. The new guidance requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. For public companies, ASU 2015-17 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2015-17 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, or ASU 2016-02. The new guidance requires lessees to recognize the assets and liabilities arising from leases on the balance sheet. For public companies, ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have a material impact on its financial statements.
