1.Description of Business

 

SG Blocks, Inc. (the “Company”) was previously known as CDSI Holdings, Inc. (a Delaware corporation incorporated on December 29, 1993). On November 4, 2011, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary was merged with and into SG Building Blocks, Inc. (“SG Building,” formerly SG Blocks Inc.) (the “Merger”), with SG Building surviving the Merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Merger was a reverse merger that was accounted for as a recapitalization of SG Building as SG Building was the accounting acquirer. Accordingly, the historical financial statements presented are the financial statements of SG Building.

 

The Company provides two main products, both of which are used to meet the growing demand for safe and green commercial, industrial and residential building construction. SGB provides SG BlocksTM, code engineered cargo shipping containers that the Company modifies for use in construction. Rather than consuming new steel and lumber, SG BlocksTM capitalize on the structural engineering and design parameters a shipping container must meet and repurposes them for use in building. They offer the construction industry a safer, greener, faster, longer lasting and more economical alternative to conventional construction methods. SGB also provides purpose-built modules (“SGPBMs” and, together with SG BlocksTM, “Modules”), which are prefabricated steel modular units created specifically for use in modular construction, unlike the shipping containers used to create SG BlocksTM.  

 

The Company also provides engineering and project management services related to the use of Modules in construction.
