Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited)

AMERICAN REBEL HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2205

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 –PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On May 3, 2024, the SEC entered an order instituting settled administrative and cease-and-desist proceedings against BF Borgers CPA PC (“Borgers”) and its sole audit partner, Benjamin F. Borgers CPA, permanently barring Mr. Borgers and Borgers (collectively, “BF Borgers”) from appearing or practicing before the SEC as an accountant (the “Order”). As a result of the Order, BF Borgers may no longer serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, nor can BF Borgers issue any audit reports included in Commission filings or provide consents with respect to audit reports.

As reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on May 6, 2024, in light of the Order, the Audit Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company on May 6, 2024, unanimously approved to dismiss, and dismissed BF Borgers as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.

On May 14, 2024, the Committee approved the engagement of GBQ Partners LLC (“GBQ”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 and the reaudits of the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

The Company filed its Form 10-K/A with the reaudits of the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 with the SEC on January 29, 2025.

The Company has included the comparative three months ended March 31, 2024 in this filing; however, these figures have not been restated due to the undue burden it would place on the Company. Additionally, the Company has not restated its Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2024 due to the undue burden this would also have on the Company. The impact of any adjustments to the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024 were included in the three months ended September 30, 2024 Form 10-Q. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated statement of operations, the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity/(deficit) and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and the accompanying notes for the three months ended March 31, 2024 should not be relied upon.

NOTE 2 –ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

The Company was incorporated on December 15, 2014, under the laws of the State of Nevada, as CubeScape, Inc. Effective January 5, 2017, the Company amended its articles of incorporation and changed its name to American Rebel Holdings, Inc. On June 19, 2017, the Company completed a business combination with its majority stockholder, American Rebel, Inc. As a result, American Rebel, Inc. became a wholly-owned subsidiary.

Nature of Operations

The Company develops and sells branded products in the self-defense, safe storage and other patriotic product areas using a wholesale distribution network, utilizing personal appearances, musical venue performances, as well e-commerce and television. The Company’s products are marketed under the American Rebel Brand and are proudly imprinted with such branding. Through its “Champion Entities” (which consists of Champion Safe Co., Inc., Superior Safe, LLC, Safe Guard Security Products, LLC, and Champion Safe De Mexico, S.A. de C.V.), the Company promotes and sells its safe and storage products through a growing network of dealers, in select regional retailers and local specialty safe, sporting goods, hunting and firearms retail outlets, as well as through online avenues, including website and e-commerce platforms. The Company sells its products under the Champion Safe Co., Superior Safe Company and Safe Guard Safe Co. brands as well as the American Rebel Brand. On August 9, 2023, the Company entered into a Master Brewing Agreement (the “Brewing Agreement”) with Associated Brewing Company, a Minnesota limited liability company (“Associated Brewing”). Under the terms of the Brewing Agreement, Associated Brewing has been appointed as the exclusive producer and seller of American Rebel branded spirits, with the initial product being the American Rebel Light Beer (“American Rebel Beer”). The Company established American Rebel Beverages, LLC as a wholly-owned subsidiary to hold the licenses with respect to the beer business. American Rebel Beer launched in 2024.

To varying degrees, the development of geopolitical conflicts, supply chain disruptions, government actions to slow rapid inflation in recent years and predictable sales cycles have produced varying effects on the business. The economic effects from these events over the long term cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Accordingly, estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements, including those associated with the evaluation of certain long-lived assets, goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment, expected credit losses on amounts owed to the Company (through accounts receivable) and the estimations of certain losses assumed under warranty and other liability contracts, may be subject to significant adjustments in future periods.

Interim Financial Statements and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the SEC set forth in Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by the U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Unaudited interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year. These financial statements should be read along with the Annual Report filed on Form 10-K of the Company for the period ended December 31, 2024, and notes thereto contained, filed on April 9, 2025.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, American Rebel, Inc., American Rebel Beverages, LLC, and the Champion Entities. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Year-end

The Company’s year-end is December 31.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of these investments approximates fair value.

Inventory and Inventory Deposits

Finished goods inventory primarily consists of backpacks, jackets, and related accessories, safes, and packaged beer available for sale. Raw materials primarily consists of component parts used in the assembly of safes and packaging materials. Apart from safes, the Company’s finished goods are manufactured or otherwise produced by outside parties to the Company’s specifications. Inventory is carried at the lower of cost (First-in, First-out Method) or net realizable value. The Company determines an estimate for the reserve of slow moving or obsolete inventories by regularly evaluating individual inventory levels, projected sales and current economic conditions. From time-to-time, the Company makes deposit payments on certain inventory purchases that are presented separately in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as inventory deposits until the goods are received into inventory.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Additions and improvements are capitalized while ordinary maintenance and repair expenditures are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, which ranges from five to fifteen years.

Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable

In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our clients, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. To achieve this core principle, we apply the following five steps: (1) Identify the contract with a client; (2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) Determine the transaction price; (4) Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) Recognize revenues when or as the company satisfies a performance obligation.

These steps are met when an order is received, a price is agreed to, and the product is shipped or delivered to that customer. Additionally, the Company offers extended warranties for the locking mechanism of its safes, which are separately purchased by customers. Warranty income is recognized over time based on the estimated useful life of the locks, which approximates 10 years. Unrecognized warranty income is presented as deferred revenue in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Warranty income recognized was not significant for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced by an allowance for bad debts and expected credit losses, as necessary, that reflects management’s best estimate of the amount that will not be collected. This estimation takes into consideration historical experience, current conditions and, as applicable, reasonable supportable forecasts. Actual results could vary from the estimate. Accounts are charged against the allowance when management deems them to be uncollectible. The allowance for doubtful accounts was approximately $221,000 and $315,000 at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Net accounts receivable was $1,277,635, $1,170,944 and $2,674,540 at March 31, 2025, December 31, 2024, and January 1, 2024, respectively.

The following table sets forth the approximate percentage of revenue by primary category:

For the Three Months Ended March 31,
Percentage of revenue:20252024
Safes96%98%
Soft goods and other2%2%
Beverages2%0%
Total100%100%

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The respective carrying value of certain financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash and accounts payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for cash and payables because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are payable on demand.

The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1: The preferred inputs to valuation efforts are “quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities,” with the caveat that the reporting entity must have access to that market. Information at this level is based on direct observations of transactions involving the same assets and liabilities, not assumptions, and thus offers superior reliability. However, relatively few items, especially physical assets, actually trade in active markets.

Level 2: FASB acknowledged that active markets for identical assets and liabilities are relatively uncommon and, even when they do exist, they may be too thin to provide reliable information. To deal with this shortage of direct data, the board provided a second level of inputs that can be applied in three situations.

Level 3: If inputs from levels 1 and 2 are not available, FASB acknowledges that fair value measures of many assets and liabilities are less precise. The board describes Level 3 inputs as “unobservable,” and limits their use by saying they “shall be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.” This category allows “for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date”. Earlier in the standard, FASB explains that “observable inputs” are gathered from sources other than the reporting company and that they are expected to reflect assumptions made by market participants.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 718, which requires the Company to recognize expense related to the grant date fair value of its employee stock awards. The Company recognizes the cost of employee share-based awards over the requisite service period, which represents the vesting period of the award. Stock-based compensation primarily relates to the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock awards.

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from non-employees in accordance with ASC 718-10 and the conclusions reached ASC 505-50. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by ASC 505-50.

Earnings Per Share

Net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period as defined by ASC 260 - Earnings per Share. Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year and the effect of pre-funded warrants issued. Diluted earnings per common share calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. Because the Company incurred net losses for each of the years presented, the effect of dilutive securities, excluding pre-funded warrants, have been excluded as the effect on EPS is antidilutive.

Fully diluted shares outstanding is the total number of shares that the Company would theoretically have if all dilutive securities were exercised and converted into shares. Dilutive securities include options, warrants, convertible debt, preferred stock and anything else that can be converted into shares. Potential dilutive shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of dilutive securities, calculated using the treasury stock method. The calculation of dilutive shares outstanding excludes out-of-the-money options (i.e., such options’ exercise prices were greater than the average market price of our common shares for the period) because their inclusion would have been antidilutive.

March 31, 2025March 31, 2024
Shares used in computation of basic earnings per share for the year ended196,30698,352
Pre-funded warrants19,441-
Total denominator215,74798,352
Net loss$(5,059,256)$(2,701,278)
Fully diluted loss per share$(23.45)$(27.47)

In periods of losses, diluted loss per share is computed on the same basis as basic loss per share as the inclusion of any other potential shares outstanding would be antidilutive.

Income Taxes

The Company follows ASC Topic 740 for recording provision for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred income tax expense or benefit is based on the changes in the asset or liability for each period. If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax asset to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income tax in the period of change. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, no income tax expense has been recorded given significant losses incurred and resulting valuation allowance on such losses.

Deferred income tax may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.

The Company applies a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold for all tax uncertainties. ASC Topic 740 only allows the recognition of tax benefits that have a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company reviewed its tax positions and determined there were no outstanding, or retroactive tax positions with less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, therefore this standard has not had a material effect on the Company. The Company does not anticipate any significant changes to its total unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months and maintains sufficient net operating loss carryforwards in the event uncertain tax positions are identified. As necessary, the Company classifies tax-related penalties and net interest as income tax expense.

Leases

ASC 842 requires lessees to recognize substantially all leases on the balance sheet as a Right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability and requires leases to be classified as either an operating or a finance type lease. The standard excludes leases of intangible assets or inventory. The Company elected the practical expedient related to treating lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all equipment leases as well as electing a policy exclusion permitting leases with an original lease term of less than one year to be excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities.

Under ASC 842, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. For this purpose, the Company considers only payments that are fixed and determinable at the time of commencement. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company estimated the incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made prior to commencement and is recorded net of any lease incentives received. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options.

Operating leases are included in operating lease Right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, current and non-current, on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company hadno financing leases as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative. This update modifies the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of topics in the Accounting Standards Codification to conform with certain SEC amendments in Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively, and the effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or S-K becomes effective. However, if the SEC has not removed the related disclosure from its regulations by June 30, 2027, the amendments will be removed from the Codification and not become effective. Early adoption is prohibited. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Concentration Risk

The Company did not have any vendor or customer concentrations as of March 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024.

NOTE 3 –GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As noted above, the Company is in the growth and acquisition stage and, accordingly, has not yet reached profitability from its operations. Since inception, the Company has been engaged in financing activities and executing its plan of operations and incurring costs and expenses related to product development, branding, inventory buildup and product launch. As a result, the Company has continued to incur significant net losses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 of ($5,059,256) and ($2,701,278), respectively. The Company’s accumulated deficit was ($70,145,456) as of March 31, 2025 and ($65,086,200) as of December 31, 2024. The Company’s working capital deficit was $(9,447,971) as of March 31, 2025, compared to a working capital deficit of $(8,940,228) as of December 31, 2024.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise capital from the sale of its equity and, ultimately, the achievement of significant operating revenues and profitability.

Management believes that sufficient funding can be secured through the obtaining of loans, as well as future offerings of its preferred and common stock. However, no assurance can be given that the Company will obtain this additional working capital, or if obtained, that such funding will not cause substantial dilution to its existing stockholders. As indicated in the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements, most of the current debt instruments are charging high interest rates. These interest payments and/or premium repayments and prepayments may make it difficult for the Company to enter into new debt agreements. If the Company is unable to secure such additional funds from these sources, it may be forced to change or delay some of its business objectives and efforts. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 4 –INVENTORY AND DEPOSITS

Inventory and deposits include the following:

March 31, 2025December 31, 2024
(Unaudited)(Audited)
Inventory – raw materials$2,059,745$1,966,395
Inventory – finished goods2,409,1852,870,781
Less reserve for excess and obsolete inventory(265,508)(281,865)
Total Inventory$4,203,422$4,555,311

The Company accounts for excess and obsolete inventory with a reserve that is established based on management’s estimates of the net realizable value of the related products. These reserves are product specific and are based upon analyses of product lines that are slow moving or expected to become obsolete due to significant product enhancements.

When inventory is physically disposed of, the Company accounts for the write-offs by making a debit to the reserve and a credit to inventory for the standard cost of the inventory item. The valuation reserve is applied as an estimate to specific product lines. Since the inventory item retains its standard cost until it is either sold or written off, the reserve estimates will differ from the actual write-off. There wereno material write-offs or inventory reserves during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

Included in finished goods is approximately $132,000 and $162,000 in finished products related to our American Rebel branded beer lager as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. This inventory is immediately available to the consumer and for distribution.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company, in connection with various employment and independent directors’ agreements, is required to issue shares of its common stock as payment for services performed or to be performed. The value of the shares issued is determined by the fair value of the Company’s common stock that trades on the Nasdaq Capital Market. This value on the date of grant is afforded to the Company for the recording of stock compensation to employees and other related parties or control persons and the recognition of this expense over the period in which the services were incurred or performed. Most of the Company’s agreement for stock compensation provide for services performed to have been satisfied by the initial grant, thereby incurring the cost immediately from the grant.

Stock-based compensation is presented in accordance with the guidance of ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under the provisions of ASC 718, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in our statements of operations. Where the stock-based compensation is not an award, option, warrant or other common stock equivalent, the Company values the shares based on fair value with respect to its grant date and the price that investors may have been paying for the Company’s common stock on that date in its various exempt private placement offerings. Stock-based compensation expense totaled $164,063 and $1,134,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and primarily relates to the aforementioned Series A preferred stock awards.

Taxable value of the stock-based compensation is recorded in accordance with the Internal Revenue Service’s regulations as it pertains to employees, control persons and others whereby they receive share-based payments. This may not always align with what the Company records these issuances in accordance with GAAP. There are no provisional tax agreements or gross-up provisions with respect to any of our share-based payments to these entities. The payment or withholding of taxes is strictly left to the recipient of the share-based payments, or the modification of share-based payments.

Director’s Note

On June 28, 2024, the Company entered into a short-term loan with a director, Lawrence Sinks (“Mr. Sinks”), evidenced by a promissory note in the principal amount of $400,000 (the “Director’s Note”).

NOTE 7 –LINE OF CREDIT – FINANCIAL INSTITUTION

During February 2023, the Company entered into a $2 million master credit agreement (credit facility) with Bank of America (“LOC”). The LOC accrues interest at a rate determined by the Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index (“BSBY”) Daily Floating Rate plus 2.05 percentage points (which at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 for the Company was 6.93% and 7.25%, respectively), and is secured by all the assets of the Champion Entities. The LOC originally expired February 28, 2024, and was extended to April 30, 2024. The following table shows outstanding amounts due under the LOC:

March 31, 2025December 31, 2024

Line of credit from a financial institution.$1,842,129$1,992,129
Total recorded as a current liability$1,842,129$1,992,129

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 the total balance due of $1,842,129 and $1,992,129, respectively, is reported as current as the LOC was to be repaid within one year, with subsequent drawdowns as needed by the Company. Upon inception the Company paid a one-time loan fee equal to 0.1% of the LOC amount available. In the likelihood of default, the default interest automatically increases to 6% over the BSBY plus an additional 2.05% rate.

The balance at the maturity was approximately $1.9 million and access to the line of credit with Bank of America was terminated.

On July 25, 2024, the Company received a notice of default and demand for payment from Bank of America regarding the Company’s Line of Credit. The Company is currently negotiating a forbearance or other cure to the default and a plan for repayment of the credit facility within 60 to 90 days with its assigned relationship manager at the bank. As discussed further in Note 12, Bank of America has filed a complaint in the Fourth Judicial District Court in and for Utah County, State of Utah (Case No. 250401345) against the Company and its subsidiaries.

NOTE 8 –NOTES PAYABLE – WORKING CAPITAL

The Company has several working capital loan agreements in place, which are described in detail below.

March 31, 2025December 31, 2024
Working capital loan agreement with a limited liability company domiciled in the state of Virginia. The working capital loan requires an initial payment of $13,881.78 on June 30, 2024 with eight (8) additional payments of $13,881.78 on the 30th of each month following funding. The working capital loan was due and payable on February 28, 2025. The working capital loan has an effective interest rate of 18.8% without taking into account the 12% original issue discount charged upon entering into the loan. This working capital loan has a conversion right associated with it in the case of an Event of Default as that term is defined below. The conversion price subject to the conversion right allows the holder of the working capital loan to receive shares not subject to Rule 144 issued as full payment for principal and (all) accrued interest at a 25% discount to market, and that market price is the lowest trading price of the Company’s common stock during the ten (10) trading days prior to the notice of conversion by the holder. No Black Scholes calculation has been made with respect to the working capital loan as the Event of Default is highly unlikely. The holder of the working capital loan has required the Company to hold sufficient enough shares in reserve to satisfy the conversion at a factor of four (4) for one (1). The loan was converted during the three months ended March 31, 2025 at a conversion rate of $0.825 for 62,930 shares of common stock.-40,369
The Company has entered a number of working capital loan agreements structured as Revenue Interest Purchase Agreements (“revenue participation interest”, “RIP”). These working capital loans provided for a purchase of an ownership interest in the revenues of our Champion subsidiary. The revenue participation interest requires payments ranging from $10,000 to $30,000 per month until the revenue participation interest is repurchased by the Company. The revenue participation interest is subject to a repurchase option by the Company. The repurchase price during the initial period ranges from $70,313 to $562,500. The repurchase price of the loans increases to $75,938 to $607,500 after the initial period has passed. The repurchase price is reduced by any revenue payments paid by the Company to the lender prior the loan being paid in full. The Revenue Interest Purchase Agreement also required the Company to make payments commencing after June 1, 2024 ranging from 3.86% to 15.45% of the net proceeds received by the Company from the Regulation A Offering. In the event of default, the Company is obligated to pay an additional 25% of any and all amounts due, immediately. Two of the RIP agreements converted a potion of the amount due to the Company’s Series D Preferred stock.675,000675,000

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company paid $120,046 in interest expense and converted a balance of $777,666 into 278,596 shares of common stock, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $411,718.301,2151,078,881

The Series D Designation was filed by the Company with the Secretary of State of Nevada on May 10, 2024, and designated 2,500,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share. The Series D Preferred Stock has the following rights:

Stated Value. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock has an initial stated value of $7.50.

Conversion at Option of Holder. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock at a fixed ratio of 1:5 (1 share of Series D Preferred Stock converts into 5 shares of Common Stock), at the option of the holder thereof, at any time following the issuance date of such share of Series D Preferred Stock at the Company’s office or any transfer agent for such stock. The conversion ratio shallnot be adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations or similar events.

Forced Conversion – If the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock during any ten consecutive trading day period has been at or above $2.25 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends recapitalizations and similar events), then the Company shall have the right to require the holder of the Series D Preferred Stock to convert all, or any portion of, the shares of Series D Preferred Stock held by such holder for shares of Common Stock. If the Company elects to cause a forced conversion of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock, then it must simultaneously take the same action with respect to all of the other shares of Series D Preferred Stock then outstanding on a pro rata basis.

Voting Rights. The Series D Preferred Stock has no voting rights relative to matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s stockholders (other than as required by law). The Company may not amend its articles of incorporation or the Series D Designation (whether by merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to materially and adversely change the rights, preferences or voting power of the Series D Preferred Stock without the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast on such matter by holders of the Company’s outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock, voting together as a class.

Conversion of Revenue Interest Loan for Preferred Stock Series D and Potential Issuance of Common Stock Equivalents from the Conversion of Series D

The Series D convertible preferred stock was purchased at $7.50 per share.

The Series D convertible preferred stock is convertible at the option of the holder into common stock of the Company at a fixed price per share of $1.50 per share.

The Securities Exchange Agreement is intended to be effected as an exchange of securities issued by the Company pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. For the purposes of Rule 144, the Company acknowledges that the holding period of the Securities Exchange Agreement (and upon conversion thereof, if any, into shares of the Company’s common stock) may be tacked onto the holding period of the Series D Preferred Stock received by the holder. The Company agrees not to take a position contrary to this unless required by regulatory authorities and their determination to the contrary.

On July 10, 2024, the Company entered into a separately negotiated Conversion Agreement (the “Conversion Agreement”) with the Series D convertible preferred stock holder, pursuant to which the holder agreed to convert the 133,334 shares of Series D convertible preferred stock it held into 2,232,143 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company. The shares of common stock underlying the Series D convertible preferred stock was reduced and repriced from $1.50 per share to $0.448 per share (which this price represents the closing price for the Company’s common stock on NASDAQ for the day immediately preceding the date of the Conversion Agreement).

NOTE 12 –COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, various claims and lawsuits, incidental to the ordinary course of our business, may be brought against the Company. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, resolution of any of these matters is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On July 23, 2024, the Company received notice of a complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Utah by Liberty Safe and Security Products, Inc. (“Liberty”), in connection with the marketing and sale of the Company’s and its subsidiaries, Champion Safe Company, Inc., line of safe products. As of the date of this Report, the complaint has not been served on the Company or Champion Safe. In the complaint, Liberty alleges trademark infringement as a result of the purported use of the term “Freedom” in the sale of safes, federal false designation of origin and unfair competition, violation of Utah deceptive trade practices, Utah unfair competition, and damages to Liberty. Management believes that this lawsuit is without merit; however has initiated settlement discussions with Liberty and anticipates an amicable settlement to be forthcoming. At this time, Management does not believe a settlement with Liberty will have a material effect on its business or financial condition.

As reported by the Company in the Form 8-K dated August 7, 2024, during February 2023, the Company entered into a $2 million master credit agreement (credit facility) with Bank of America. The credit facility is secured by all the assets of the Company’s Champion subsidiaries and guaranteed by the Company, the Champion subsidiaries and the Company’s CEO. The Line of Credit expired on February 28, 2024, but the Company and Champion Safe Company have been actively working with the bank to extend or modify the credit facility. Despite being current on all payments under the credit facility and actively working with the bank for a long-term solution to repay the credit facility, on July 25, 2024, Champion Safe Company received a notice of default and demand for payment from the bank. On March 21, 2025, Bank of America filed a complaint in the Fourth Judicial District Court in and for Utah County, State of Utah (Case No. 250401345) against the Company and its subsidiaries (Champion Safe Company, Inc., American Rebel, Inc., Superior Safe Co., L.L.C. and Safe Guard Security Products LC) alleging four causes of action related to the credit facility: (i) Breach of the Loan Documents – Champion Safe; (ii) Breach of the Loan Documents – Guarantors (the Company, American Rebel, Inc., Superior Safe Co., L.L.C. and Safe Guard Security Products LC); (iii) Breach of the Implied Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing – all parties; and (iv) Unjust Enrichment – Champion Safe. The Company plans to defend the complaint, while continuing to work with Bank of American on a settlement.

Contractual Obligations

The Company does not believe there are any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 there wereno outstanding letters of credit issued during the normal course of business. These letters of credit could reduce the Company’s available borrowings. The amount due on the line of credit as of March 31, 2025 was $1,842,129. The Company is currently not in compliance with its terms and covenants.

Nasdaq Compliance

On February 19, 2025, the Company received a notification letter Nasdaq stating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) because the stockholders’ equity of the Company as of September 30, 2024, as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on February 7, 2025, was below the minimum requirement of $2,500,000 (the “Stockholders’ Equity Requirement”). The Notification Letter has no immediate effect on the Company’s continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, subject to the Company’s compliance with the other continued listing requirements. Pursuant to Nasdaq’s Listing Rules, the Company has 45 calendar days (until April 7, 2025), to submit a plan to evidence compliance with the Rule (a “Compliance Plan”). The Company intends to submit a Compliance Plan within the required time, although there can be no assurance that the Compliance Plan will be accepted by Nasdaq. If the Compliance Plan is accepted by Nasdaq, the Company will be granted an extension of up to 180 calendar days from February 19, 2025 to evidence compliance with the Rule. In the event the Compliance Plan is not accepted by Nasdaq, or in the event the Compliance Plan is accepted but the Company fails to evidence compliance within the extension period, the Company will have the right to a hearing before Nasdaq’s Hearing Panel. The hearing request would stay any suspension or delisting action pending the conclusion of the hearing process and the expiration of any additional extension period granted by the panel following the hearing. The Company submitted the Compliance Plan on April 7, 2025, will continue to monitor its stockholders’ equity and, if appropriate, consider further available options to evidence compliance with the Stockholders’ Equity Requirement.

Executive Employment Agreements and Independent Contractor Agreements

The Company has written employment agreements with various other executive officers. All payments made to its executive officers and significant outside service providers are analyzed and determined by the board of directors’ compensation committee; some payments made to independent contractors (or officer payments characterized as non-employee compensation) may be subject to backup withholding or general withholding of payroll taxes, may make the Company responsible for the withholding and remittance of those taxes. Generally outside service providers are responsible for their own withholding and payment of taxes. Certain state taxing authorities may otherwise disagree with that analysis and Company policy.

NOTE 13 –SEGMENT REPORTING

Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance.

The Company views its operations and manages its business as one operating segment engaged in patriotic goods comprised of safes, soft goods, and beer. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, as the CODM, regularly reviews the entity-wide financial and operational performance as a single unit. No financial information is disaggregated into separate lines of business. The CODM makes resource allocation and business process decisions regarding the overall level of resources available and how to best deploy the resources.

The single segment’s principal measure of segment profit and loss is consolidated revenue, gross margin, and total operating expenses. The CODM considers actual and forecasted numbers when evaluating performance.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements are not historical facts but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections. We may use words such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “project,” “position,” “intend,” “target,” “plan,” “seek,” “believe,” “foresee,” “outlook,” “estimate” and variations of these words and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, are difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following:

●our ability to maintain compliance with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq;
●the effect of new tariffs on our business and financial condition;
●we consummated the purchase of our safe manufacturer and sales organizations, and future acquisitions and operations of new manufacturing facilities and/or sales organizations might prove unsuccessful and could fail;
●risk that we will not be able to remediate identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures;
●our failure to timely file certain periodic reports with the SEC and our prior restatements have had, and may in the future have further, material adverse consequences to our business, our financial condition, results of operations and our cash flows;
●our success depends on our ability to introduce new products that track customer preferences;
●if we are unable to protect our intellectual property, we may lose a competitive advantage or incur substantial litigation costs to protect our rights;
●as a significant portion of our revenues are derived by demand for our safes and the personal security products for firearms storage, we depend on the availability and regulation of ammunition and firearm storage;
●as we continue to integrate the purchase of our safe manufacturer and sales organization, any compromised operational capacity may affect our ability to meet the demand for our safes, which in turn may affect our generation of revenue;
●shortages of components and materials, as well as supply chain disruptions, may delay or reduce our sales and increase our costs, thereby harming our results of operations;
●we do not have long-term purchase commitments from our customers, and their ability to cancel, reduce, or delay orders could reduce our revenue and increase our costs;
●our inability to effectively meet our short- and long-term obligations;
●given our limited corporate history, it is difficult to evaluate our business and future prospects, and increases the risks associated with an investment in our securities;
●our inability to raise additional financing for working capital;
●our ability to generate sufficient revenue in our targeted markets to support operations;
●significant dilution resulting from our financing activities;
●the actions and initiatives taken by both current and potential competitors;
●our ability to diversify our operations;
●the fact that our accounting policies and methods are fundamental to how we report our financial condition and results of operations, and they may require management to make estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain;
●changes in U.S. GAAP or in the legal, regulatory and legislative environments in the markets in which we operate;
●the deterioration in general of global economic, market and political conditions;
●the inability to efficiently manage our operations;
●the inability to achieve future operating results;
●the unavailability of funds for capital expenditures;
●the inability of management to effectively implement our strategies and business plans; and
●the other risks and uncertainties detailed in this report.

Because the factors referred to above could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. New factors emerge from time to time, and their emergence is impossible for us to predict. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

This Quarterly Report should be read completely and with the understanding that actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. The forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report and should be evaluated with consideration of any changes occurring after the date of this Quarterly Report. We will not update forward-looking statements even though our situation may change in the future and we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
