BUSINESS OF HERE TO SERVE HOLDING CORP.
 
Overview
 
Here To Serve Holding Corp., f/k/a F3 Technologies, Inc. (the “Company” or “Here to Serve,”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware as New Ithaca Corporation on September 22, 1983. Here to Serve is a holding company and, prior to the closing of the Purchase Agreement, was the sole owner of all membership interests in Here to Serve – Missouri Waste Division, LLC d/b/a Meridian Waste, a Missouri limited liability company (“HTS Waste”); (ii) Here to Serve Technology, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (“HTS Tech”); and (iii) Here to Serve – Georgia Waste Division, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (“HTS Waste Georgia”).  A description of the business of each such company follows.  
 
Here to Serve – Missouri Waste Division, LLC d/b/a Meridian Waste
 
HTS Waste is a non-hazardous solid waste management company providing collection services for approximately 40,000 commercial, industrial and residential customers in Missouri. We own one collection operation based out of Bridgeton, Missouri.  Approximately 100% of HTS Waste’s 2013 revenue was from collection, utilizing over 60 collection vehicles.
 
Here to Serve began non-hazardous waste collection operations in May 2014 upon our acquisition of nearly all of the assets from Meridian Waste Service, LLC that in turn became the core of our operations. From our formation through today, we have begun to create the infrastructure needed to expand our operations through acquisitions and market development opportunities.

Waste Industry Overview
 
The non-hazardous solid waste industry can be divided into the following three categories: collection, transfer and disposal services.  Companies engaging in collection and/or transfer operations of solid waste typically have lower margins than those performing disposal service operations.  By vertically integrating collection, transfer and disposal operations, operators seek to capture significant waste volumes and improve operating margins.
 
During the past four decades, our industry has experienced periods of substantial consolidation activity; however, we believe significant fragmentation remains.  We believe that there are two primary factors that lead to consolidation:
 
Stringent industry regulations have caused operating and capital costs to rise, with many local industry participants finding these costs difficult to bear and deciding to either close their operations or sell them to larger operators; and
 
Larger operators are increasingly pursuing economies of scale by vertically integrating their operations or by utilizing their facility, asset and management infrastructure over larger volumes and, accordingly, larger solid waste collection and disposal companies have become more cost-effective and competitive by controlling a larger waste stream and by gaining access to significant financial resources to make acquisitions.
 
Integration and Acquisitions
 
Vertical Integration and Internalization
 
Vertical integration is a key element of our operating strategy for the future because it will allow us to manage the waste stream from the point of collection through disposal, thereby maximizing the rate of waste internalization, increasing our operating margins and improving our operating cash flows.  Internalization refers to the disposal of collected waste into the landfills we own.  All collected waste must ultimately be processed or disposed of, with landfills being the main depository for such waste.  Generally, the most cost efficient collection services occur within a 35-mile operating radius from the disposal site (up to 100 miles if a transfer station is used).  Collection companies that do not own a landfill within such range from their collection routes will usually have to dispose of the waste they collect in landfills owned by third parties.  Thus, owning a landfill in a market area would provide substantial leverage in the waste management business.  We do not currently own any landfills as part of our operations. We currently have access to landfills located in St. Louis, Missouri and are actively seeking to purchase or lease a landfill, transfer station or waste-to-energy facility in order to internalize our existing volume. At this time, we have not located a landfill, transfer station or waste-to-energy facility for a lease or purchase.
 
Acquisition History and Outlook
 
Acquisitions will play a key role in our planned revenue growth and expansion into new markets.  Our acquisition of Meridian Waste Services, LLC currently provides us a platform and infrastructure to make additional acquisitions in the near future. We strive to integrate all of our completed acquisitions into our existing operations as soon as feasible; however, based on our current trajectory it may take up to a year to fully realize operating synergies for the acquisitions that we completed.  
 
In 2015, we intend to continue seeking and pursuing attractive acquisition opportunities that enable us to grow our current operations based on (i) new markets, (ii) acquiring disposal and transfer capacity, and (iii) waste streams opportunities.  In 2015, we may consider a secondary offering to raise capital for immediate acquisition targets, secure a robust senior credit facility and register available authorized shares of our capital stock to pursue and consummate acquisitions that enable us to effectively build a comprehensive waste solutions enterprise.
 
HTS Waste Operations and Customers
 
The operations of HTS Waste consist of the collection of solid waste.
 
Customers
 
HTS Waste has a broad and diverse customer base.   We have two municipal contracts that accounted for 32% and 35% and 21% and 23% of HTS Waste’s long-term contracted revenue for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 respectively.

Collection Services
 
HTS Waste provides solid waste collection services to approximately 40,000 industrial, commercial and residential customers in the Metropolitan St. Louis, Missouri area.  In 2013, its collection revenue consisted of approximately 14% from services provided to industrial customers, 21% from services provided to commercial customers and 65% from services provided to residential customers.
 
In our commercial collection operations, we supply our customers with waste containers of various types and sizes.  These containers are designed so that they can be lifted mechanically and emptied into a collection truck to be transported to a disposal facility.  By using these containers, we can service most of our commercial customers with trucks operated by a single employee.  Commercial collection services are generally performed under service agreements with a duration of one to five years with possible renewal options.  Fees are generally determined by such considerations as individual market factors, collection frequency, the type of equipment we furnish, the type and volume or weight of the waste to be collected, the distance to the disposal facility and the cost of disposal.
 
Residential solid waste collection services often are performed under contracts with municipalities, which we generally secure by competitive bid and which give us exclusive rights to service all or a portion of the homes in these municipalities.  These contracts usually range in duration from one to five years with possible renewal options.  Residential solid waste collection services may also be performed on a subscription basis, in which individual households or homeowners’ or similar associations contract directly with us.  The fees received for residential collection are based primarily on market factors, frequency and type of service, the distance to the disposal facility and the cost of disposal.
 
Additionally, we rent waste containers and provide collection services to construction, demolition and industrial sites.  We load the containers onto our vehicles and transport them with the waste to either a landfill or a transfer station for disposal.  We refer to this as “roll-off” collection.  Roll-off collection services are generally performed on a contractual basis.  Contract terms tend to be shorter in length and may vary according to the customers’ underlying projects.
 
Transfer and Disposal Services
 
Landfills are the main depository for solid waste in the United States.  Solid waste landfills are built, operated, and tied to a state permit under stringent federal, state and local regulations.  Currently, solid waste landfills in the United States must be designed, permitted, operated, closed and maintained after closure in compliance with federal, state and local regulations pursuant to Subtitle D of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended.  We do not operate hazardous waste landfills, which are subject to even greater regulations.  Operating a solid waste landfill includes excavating, constructing liners, continually spreading and compacting waste and covering waste with earth or other inert material as required, final capping, closure and post-closure monitoring.  The objectives of these operations are to maintain sanitary conditions, to ensure the best possible use of the airspace and to prepare the site so that it can ultimately be used for other end use purposes.
 
Access to a disposal facility is a necessity for all solid waste management companies.  While access to disposal facilities owned or operated by third parties can be obtained, we believe that it is preferable to internalize the waste streams when possible.
 
Transfer stations will allow us to consolidate waste for subsequent transfer in larger loads, thereby making disposal in our otherwise remote landfills economically feasible.  A transfer station is a facility located near residential and commercial collection routes where collection trucks take the solid waste that has been collected.  The waste is unloaded from the collection trucks and reloaded onto larger transfer trucks for transportation to a landfill for final disposal.  In addition to increasing our ability to internalize the waste that our collection operations collect, using transfer stations reduces the costs associated with transporting waste to final disposal sites because the trucks we use for transfer have a larger capacity than collection trucks, thus allowing more waste to be transported to the disposal facility on each trip.  It also increases the efficiency of our collection personnel and equipment because it allows them to focus more on collection.  
 
Competition
 
The solid waste collection and disposal industry is highly competitive and fragmented and requires substantial labor and capital resources.  The industry presently includes large, publicly-held, national waste companies such as Republic Services, Inc. and Waste Management, Inc., as well as numerous other public and privately-held waste companies.  In our existing market and certain of the markets in which we will likely compete are served by one or more of these companies, as well as by numerous privately-held regional and local solid waste companies of varying sizes and resources, some of which have accumulated substantial goodwill in their markets.  We also compete with operators of alternative disposal facilities and with counties, municipalities and solid waste districts that maintain their own waste collection and disposal operations.  Public sector operations may have financial advantages over us because of their access to user fees and similar charges, tax revenues and tax-exempt financing.
 
 
5

 

We compete for collection based primarily on geographic location and the price and quality of our services.  From time to time, our competitors may reduce the price of their services in an effort to expand their market share or service areas or to win competitively bid municipal contracts.  These practices may cause us to reduce the price of our services or, if we elect not to do so, to lose business.
 
The solid waste collection and disposal industry has undergone significant consolidation, and, as a result of this consolidation, we encounter competition in our efforts to acquire landfills, transfer stations and collection operations.  Competition exists not only for collection, transfer and disposal volume but also for acquisition candidates.  We generally compete for acquisition candidates with large, publicly-held waste management companies, private equity backed firms as well as numerous privately-held regional and local solid waste companies of varying sizes and resources.  Competition in the disposal industry may also be affected by the increasing national emphasis on recycling and other waste reduction programs, which may reduce the volume of waste deposited in landfills.  Accordingly, it may become uneconomical for us to make further acquisitions or we may be unable to locate or acquire suitable acquisition candidates at price levels and on terms and conditions that we consider appropriate, particularly in markets we do not already serve.
 
Sales and Marketing
 
We focus our marketing efforts on increasing and extending business with existing customers, as well as increasing our new customer base.  Our sales and marketing strategy is to provide prompt, high quality, comprehensive solid waste collection to our customers at competitive prices.  We target potential customers of all sizes, from small quantity generators to large companies and municipalities.  Because the waste collection and disposal business is a highly localized business, most of our marketing activity is local in nature.  
 
Government Contracts
 
We are party to contracts with municipalities and other associations and agencies.  Many of these contracts are or will be subject to competitive bidding.  We may not be the successful bidder, or we may have to substantially lower prices in order to be the successful bidder.  In addition, some of our customers may have the right to terminate their contracts with us before the end of the contract term.
 
Municipalities may annex unincorporated areas within counties where we provide collection services, and as a result, our customers in annexed areas may be required to obtain service from competitors who have been franchised or contracted by the annexing municipalities to provide those services.  Some of the local jurisdictions in which we currently operate grant exclusive franchises to collection and disposal companies, others may do so in the future, and we may enter markets where franchises are granted by certain municipalities, thereby reducing the potential market opportunity for us.
 
Regulation
 
Our business is subject to extensive and evolving federal, state and local environmental, health, safety and transportation laws and regulations.  These laws and regulations are administered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, or EPA, and various other federal, state and local environmental, zoning, air, water, transportation, land use, health and safety agencies.  Many of these agencies regularly inspect our operations to monitor compliance with these laws and regulations.  Governmental agencies have the authority to enforce compliance with these laws and regulations and to obtain injunctions or impose civil or criminal penalties in cases of violations.  We believe that regulation of the waste industry will continue to evolve, and we will adapt to future legal and regulatory requirements to ensure compliance.

Our operations are subject to extensive regulation, principally under the federal statutes described below.
 
The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended, or RCRA.  RCRA regulates the handling, transportation and disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous wastes and delegates authority to states to develop programs to ensure the safe disposal of solid wastes.  On October 9, 1991, the EPA promulgated Solid Waste Disposal Facility Criteria for non-hazardous solid waste landfills under Subtitle D of RCRA.  Subtitle D includes location standards, facility design and operating criteria, closure and post-closure requirements, financial assurance standards and groundwater monitoring, as well as corrective action standards, many of which had not commonly been in place or enforced at landfills.  Subtitle D applies to all solid waste landfill cells that received waste after October 9, 1991, and, with limited exceptions, required all landfills to meet these requirements by October 9, 1993. All states in which we operate have EPA-approved programs which implemented at least the minimum requirements of Subtitle D and in some states even more stringent requirements.
 
The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, or CERCLA.  CERCLA, which is also known as Superfund, addresses problems created by the release or threatened release of hazardous substances (as defined in CERCLA) into the environment.  CERCLA’s primary mechanism for achieving remediation of such problems is to impose strict joint and several liability for cleanup of disposal sites on current owners and operators of the site, former site owners and operators at the time of disposal and parties who arranged for disposal at the facility (i.e., generators of the waste and transporters who select the disposal site).  The costs of a CERCLA cleanup can be substantial.  Liability under CERCLA is not dependent on the existence or intentional disposal of “hazardous wastes” (as defined under RCRA), but can also be based upon the release or threatened release, even as a result of lawful, unintentional and non-negligent action, of any one of the more than 700 “hazardous substances” listed by the EPA, even in minute amounts.
 
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972, as amended, or the Clean Water Act.  This act establishes rules regulating the discharge of pollutants into streams and other waters of the United States (as defined in the Clean Water Act) from a variety of sources, including solid waste disposal sites.  If runoff from our landfills or transfer stations may be discharged into surface waters, the Clean Water Act requires us to apply for and obtain discharge permits, conduct sampling and monitoring and, under certain circumstances, reduce the quantity of pollutants in those discharges.  In 1990, the EPA issued additional rules under the Clean Water Act, which establish standards for management of storm water runoff from landfills and which require landfills that receive, or in the past received, industrial waste to obtain storm water discharge permits.  In addition, if a landfill or transfer station discharges wastewater through a sewage system to a publicly-owned treatment works, the facility must comply with discharge limits imposed by the treatment works.  Also, if development of a landfill may alter or affect “wetlands,” the owner may have to obtain a permit and undertake certain mitigation measures before development may begin.  This requirement is likely to affect the construction or expansion of many solid waste disposal sites.
 
 The Clean Air Act of 1970, as amended, or the Clean Air Act.  The Clean Air Act provides for increased federal, state and local regulation of the emission of air pollutants.  The EPA has applied the Clean Air Act to solid waste landfills and vehicles with heavy duty engines, such as waste collection vehicles.  Additionally, in March 1996, the EPA adopted New Source Performance Standards and Emission Guidelines (the “Emission Guidelines”) for municipal solid waste landfills to control emissions of landfill gases.  These regulations impose limits on air emissions from solid waste landfills.  The Emission Guidelines impose two sets of emissions standards, one of which is applicable to all solid waste landfills for which construction, reconstruction or modification was commenced before May 30, 1991.  The other applies to all municipal solid waste landfills for which construction, reconstruction or modification was commenced on or after May 30, 1991.  The Emission Guidelines are being implemented by the states after the EPA approves the individual state’s program.  These guidelines, combined with the new permitting programs established under the Clean Air Act, subject solid waste landfills to significant permitting requirements and, in some instances, require installation of gas recovery systems to reduce emissions to allowable limits.  The EPA also regulates the emission of hazardous air pollutants from municipal landfills and has promulgated regulations that require measures to monitor and reduce such emissions.
 
Climate Change.  A variety of regulatory developments, proposals or requirements have been introduced that are focused on restricting the emission of carbon dioxide, methane and other gases known as greenhouse gases.  Congress has considered legislation directed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions.  There has been support in various regions of the country for legislation that requires reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, and some states have already adopted legislation addressing greenhouse gas emissions from various sources.  In 2007, the U.S. Supreme Court held in Massachusetts, et al. v. EPA that greenhouse gases are an “air pollutant” under the federal Clean Air Act and, thus, subject to future regulation.  In a move toward regulating greenhouse gases, on December 15, 2009, the EPA published its findings that emission of carbon dioxide, methane and other greenhouse gases present an endangerment to human health and the environment because greenhouse gases are, according to EPA, contributing to climate change.  On October 30, 2009, the EPA published the greenhouse gas reporting final rule, effective December 29, 2009, which establishes a new comprehensive scheme requiring certain specified industries as well as operators of stationary sources emitting more than established annual thresholds of carbon dioxide-equivalent greenhouse gases to inventory and report their greenhouse gas emissions annually.  Municipal solid waste landfills are subject to the rule.  EPA proposed regulations that would require a reduction in emissions of greenhouse gases from motor vehicles.  Finally, according to the EPA, the final motor vehicle greenhouse gas standards will trigger construction and operating permit requirements for stationary sources.  As a result, the EPA has proposed to tailor these programs such that only large stationary sources will be required to have air permits that authorize greenhouse gas emissions.

The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, as amended, or OSHA.  OSHA establishes certain employer responsibilities, including maintenance of a workplace free of recognized hazards likely to cause death or serious injury, compliance with standards promulgated by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and various record keeping, disclosure and procedural requirements.  Various standards, including standards for notices of hazards, safety in excavation and demolition work and the handling of asbestos, may apply to our operations.
 
Flow Control/Interstate Waste Restrictions.  Certain permits and approvals, as well as certain state and local regulations, may limit a landfill or transfer station to accepting waste that originates from specified geographic areas, restrict the importation of out-of-state waste or wastes originating outside the local jurisdiction or otherwise discriminate against non-local waste.  These restrictions, generally known as flow control restrictions, are controversial, and some courts have held that some flow control schemes violate constitutional limits on state or local regulation of interstate commerce.  From time to time, federal legislation is proposed that would allow some local flow control restrictions.  Although no such federal legislation has been enacted to date, if such federal legislation should be enacted in the future, states in which we own landfills could limit or prohibit the importation of out-of-state waste or direct that wastes be handled at specified facilities.  Such state actions could adversely affect our landfills.  These restrictions could also result in higher disposal costs for our collection operations.  If we were unable to pass such higher costs through to our customers, our business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.
 
Certain state and local jurisdictions may also seek to enforce flow control restrictions through local legislation or contractually.  In certain cases, we may elect not to challenge such restrictions.  These restrictions could reduce the volume of waste going to landfills in certain areas, which may adversely affect our ability to operate our landfills at their full capacity and/or reduce the prices that we can charge for landfill disposal services.  These restrictions may also result in higher disposal costs for our collection operations.  If we were unable to pass such higher costs through to our customers, our business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.
 
State and Local Regulation.  Each state in which we now operate or may operate in the future has laws and regulations governing the generation, storage, treatment, handling, transportation and disposal of solid waste, occupational safety and health, water and air pollution and, in most cases, the siting, design, operation, maintenance, closure and post-closure maintenance of landfills and transfer stations.  State and local permits and approval for these operations may be required and may be subject to periodic renewal, modification or revocation by the issuing agencies.  In addition, many states have adopted statutes comparable to, and in some cases more stringent than, CERCLA.  These statutes impose requirements for investigation and cleanup of contaminated sites and liability for costs and damages associated with such sites, and some provide for the imposition of liens on property owned by responsible parties.  Furthermore, many municipalities also have ordinances, local laws and regulations affecting our operations.  These include zoning and health measures that limit solid waste management activities to specified sites or activities, flow control provisions that direct or restrict the delivery of solid wastes to specific facilities, laws that grant the right to establish franchises for collection services and then put such franchises out for bid and bans or other restrictions on the movement of solid wastes into a municipality.
 
Permits or other land use approvals with respect to a landfill, as well as state or local laws and regulations, may specify the quantity of waste that may be accepted at the landfill during a given time period and/or specify the types of waste that may be accepted at the landfill.  Once an operating permit for a landfill is obtained, it must generally be renewed periodically.
 
There has been an increasing trend at the state and local level to mandate and encourage waste reduction and recycling and to prohibit or restrict the disposal in landfills of certain types of solid wastes, such as yard wastes, beverage containers, unshredded tires, lead-acid batteries, paper, cardboard and household appliances.

Many states and local jurisdictions have enacted “bad boy” laws that allow the agencies that have jurisdiction over waste services contracts or permits to deny or revoke these contracts or permits based on the applicant’s or permit holder’s compliance history.  Some states and local jurisdictions go further and consider the compliance history of the parent, subsidiaries or affiliated companies, in addition to that of the applicant or permit holder. These laws authorize the agencies to make determinations of an applicant’s or permit holder’s fitness to be awarded a contract to operate and to deny or revoke a contract or permit because of unfitness unless there is a showing that the applicant or permit holder has been rehabilitated through the adoption of various operating policies and procedures put in place to assure future compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
 
Some state and local authorities enforce certain federal laws in addition to state and local laws and regulations. For example, in some states, RCRA, OSHA, parts of the Clean Air Act and parts of the Clean Water Act are enforced by local or state authorities instead of the EPA, and in some states those laws are enforced jointly by state or local and federal authorities.
 
Public Utility Regulation.  In many states, public authorities regulate the rates that landfill operators may charge.  
 
Seasonality
 
Based on our industry and our historic trends, we expect our operations to vary seasonally.  Typically, revenue will be highest in the second and third calendar quarters and lowest in the first and fourth calendar quarters.  These seasonal variations result in fluctuations in waste volumes due to weather conditions and general economic activity.  We also expect that our operating expenses may be higher during the winter months due to periodic adverse weather conditions that can slow the collection of waste, resulting in higher labor and operational costs.  
 
Employees
 
As of February 17, 2015, we have approximately 87 full-time employees.  None of our employees are represented by a labor union.   We have not experienced any work stoppages and we believe that our relations with our employees are good.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.
 
RISK FACTORS
 
You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this report before making an investment decision with regard to our securities. The statements contained in or incorporated into this offering 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 risks 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.

WE ARE SUBJECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL AND SAFETY LAWS, WHICH RESTRICT OUR OPERATIONS AND INCREASE OUR COSTS.

We are subject to extensive federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to environmental protection and occupational safety and health.  These include, among other things, laws and regulations governing the use, treatment, storage and disposal of wastes and materials, air quality, water quality and the remediation of contamination associated with the release of hazardous substances.  Our compliance with existing regulatory requirements is costly, and continued changes in these regulations could increase our compliance costs. Government laws and regulations often require us to enhance or replace our equipment. We are required to obtain and maintain permits that are subject to strict regulatory requirements and are difficult and costly to obtain and maintain.  We may be unable to implement price increases sufficient to offset the cost of complying with these laws and regulations.  In addition, regulatory changes could accelerate or increase expenditures for closure and post-closure monitoring at solid waste facilities and obligate us to spend sums over the amounts that we have accrued.

 
10

 
 
WE MAY BECOME SUBJECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL CLEAN-UP COSTS OR LITIGATION THAT COULD CURTAIL OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND MATERIALLY DECREASE OUR EARNINGS.

The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, or CERCLA, and analogous state laws provide for the remediation of contaminated facilities and impose strict joint and several liability for remediation costs on current and former owners or operators of a facility at which there has been a release or a threatened release of a hazardous substance.  This liability is also imposed on persons who arrange for the disposal of and who transport such substances to the facility.  Hundreds of substances are defined as hazardous under CERCLA and their presence, even in small amounts, can result in substantial liability.  The expense of conducting a cleanup can be significant.  Notwithstanding our efforts to comply with applicable regulations and to avoid transporting and receiving hazardous substances, we may have liability because these substances may be present in waste collected by us.  The actual costs for these liabilities could be significantly greater than the amounts that we might be required to accrue on our financial statements from time to time.

In addition to the costs of complying with environmental regulations, we may incur costs to defend against litigation brought by government agencies and private parties.  As a result, we may be required to pay fines or our permits and licenses may be modified or revoked.  We may in the future be a defendant in lawsuits brought by governmental agencies and private parties who assert claims alleging environmental damage, personal injury, property damage and/or violations of permits and licenses by us.  A significant judgment against us, the loss of a significant permit or license or the imposition of a significant fine could curtail our business operations and may decrease our earnings.

OUR BUSINESS IS CAPITAL INTENSIVE, REQUIRING ONGOING CASH OUTLAYS THAT MAY STRAIN OR CONSUME OUR AVAILABLE CAPITAL AND FORCE US TO SELL ASSETS, INCUR DEBT, OR SELL EQUITY ON UNFAVORABLE TERMS.

Our ability to remain competitive, grow and maintain operations largely depends on our cash flow from operations and access to capital.  Maintaining our existing operations and expanding them through internal growth or acquisitions requires large capital expenditures.  As we undertake more acquisitions and further expand our operations, the amount we expend on capital will increase. These increases in expenditures may result in lower levels of working capital or require us to finance working capital deficits.  We intend to continue to fund our cash needs through cash flow from operations and borrowings under our credit facility, if necessary.  However, we may require additional equity or debt financing to fund our growth.

We do not have complete control over our future performance because it is subject to general economic, political, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors.  It is possible that our business may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations, and we may not otherwise have the capital resources, to allow us to make necessary capital expenditures.  If this occurs, we may have to sell assets, restructure our debt or obtain additional equity capital, which could be dilutive to our stockholders.  We may not be able to take any of the foregoing actions, and we may not be able to do so on terms favorable to us or our stockholders.
 
WE DEPEND ON A LIMITED NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS FOR OUR REVENUE.

At this time, the Company has two municipal contracts that account for 32% and 21% of our long term contracted revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. Because we depend on these customers for a majority of our revenue, a loss of one of these customers could materially adversely affect our business and financial condition. If these principal customers cease using our services, our business could be materially adversely affected.
 
GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITIES MAY ENACT CLIMATE CHANGE REGULATIONS THAT COULD INCREASE OUR COSTS TO OPERATE.
 
Environmental advocacy groups and regulatory agencies in the United States have been focusing considerable attention on the emissions of greenhouse gases and their potential role in climate change.  Congress has considered recent proposed legislation directed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions and President Obama has indicated his support of legislation aimed at reducing greenhouse gases.  EPA has proposed rules to regulate greenhouse gases, regional initiatives have formed to control greenhouse gases and certain of the states in which we operate are contemplating air pollution control regulations that are more stringent than existing and proposed federal regulations, in particular the regulation of emissions of greenhouse gases.  The adoption of laws and regulations to implement controls of greenhouse gases, including the imposition of fees or taxes, could adversely affect our collection operations.  Changing environmental regulations could require us to take any number of actions, including the purchase of emission allowances or installation of additional pollution control technology, and could make some operations less profitable, which could adversely affect our results of operations.

CURRENT U.S. ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, AS WELL AS POTENTIAL FUTURE DOWNTURNS, HAS REDUCED AND MAY CONTINUE TO REDUCE OUR VOLUME AND/OR PRICING ON OUR SERVICES, RESULTING IN DECREASES IN OUR REVENUE, PROFITABILITY AND CASH FLOWS.

Our business is affected by changes in national and general economic factors that are outside of our control, including economic activity, consumer confidence, interest rates and access to capital markets.  Although our services are of an essential nature, a weak economy generally results in decreases in volumes of waste generated, which decreases our revenues.  Additionally, consumer uncertainty and the loss of consumer confidence may limit the number or amount of services requested by customers and our ability to increase customers’ pricing.  During weak economic conditions we may also be adversely impacted by customers’ inability to pay us in a timely manner, if at all, due to their financial difficulties, which could include bankruptcies.

INCREASES IN THE COSTS OF FUEL MAY REDUCE OUR OPERATING MARGINS.

The price and supply of fuel needed to run our collection vehicles is unpredictable and fluctuates based on events outside our control, including geopolitical developments, supply and demand for oil and gas, actions by OPEC and other oil and gas producers, war and unrest in oil producing countries, regional production patterns and environmental concerns.  Any significant price escalations or reductions in the supply could increase our operating expenses or interrupt or curtail our operations.  Failure to offset all or a portion of any increased fuel costs through increased fees or charges would reduce our operating margins.

CHANGES IN INTEREST RATES MAY AFFECT OUR PROFITABILITY.

Our acquisitions could require us to incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future, which will increase our interest expense.  Further, to the extent that these borrowings are subject to variable rates of interest, increases in interest rates will increase our interest expense, which will affect our profitability.  In connection with the restructuring of our long-term debt in July 2014, we entered into a swap agreement effective July 14, 2014, where we agreed to pay a fixed-rate of 4.74% in exchange for one-month floating rate LIBOR.  This interest rate swap expires on April 30, 2016.  With the placement of this swap agreement, we bear exposure to, and are primarily affected by, changes in LIBOR rates.  As of February 17, 2015, $6.0 million was subject to the effect of the swap agreement.  

INCREASES IN THE COSTS OF DISPOSAL MAY REDUCE OUR OPERATING MARGINS.

We dispose of approximately 100% of the waste that we collect in landfills operated by others, but that rate may increase in the future.  We may incur increases in disposal fees paid to third parties.  Failure to pass these costs on to our customers may reduce our operating margins.

INCREASES IN THE COSTS OF LABOR MAY REDUCE OUR OPERATING MARGINS.

We compete with other businesses in our markets for qualified employees.  A shortage of qualified employees would require us to enhance our wage and benefits packages to compete more effectively for employees or to hire more expensive temporary employees.  Labor is our second largest operating cost, and even relatively small increases in labor costs per employee could materially affect our cost structure.  Failure to attract and retain qualified employees, to control our labor costs, or to recover any increased labor costs through increased prices we charge for our services or otherwise offset such increases with cost savings in other areas may reduce our operating margins.

INCREASES IN COSTS OF INSURANCE WOULD REDUCE OUR OPERATING MARGINS.

One of our largest operating costs is for insurance coverage, including general liability, automobile physical damage and liability, property, employment practices, pollution, directors and officers, fiduciary, workers’ compensation and employer’s liability coverage, as well as umbrella liability policies to provide excess coverage over the underlying limits contained in our primary general liability, automobile liability and employer’s liability policies.  Changes in our operating experience, such as an increase in accidents or lawsuits or a catastrophic loss, could cause our insurance costs to increase significantly or could cause us to be unable to obtain certain insurance. Increases in insurance costs would reduce our operating margins.  Changes in our industry and perceived risks in our business could have a similar effect.
 
 
12

 
 
WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO MAINTAIN SUFFICIENT INSURANCE COVERAGE TO COVER THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR OPERATIONS, WHICH COULD RESULT IN UNINSURED LOSSES THAT WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION.

Integrated non-hazardous waste companies are exposed to a variety of risks that are typically covered by insurance arrangements.  However, we may not be able to maintain sufficient insurance coverage to cover the risks associated with our operations for a variety of reasons.  Increases in insurance costs and changes in the insurance markets may, given our resources, limit the coverage that we are able to maintain or prevent us from insuring against certain risks.  Large or unexpected losses may exceed our policy limits, adversely affecting our results of operations, and may result in the termination or limitation of coverage, exposing us to uninsured losses, thereby adversely affecting our financial condition.

OUR FAILURE TO REMAIN COMPETITIVE WITH OUR NUMEROUS COMPETITORS, SOME OF WHOM HAVE GREATER RESOURCES, COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO RETAIN EXISTING CUSTOMERS AND OBTAIN FUTURE BUSINESS.

Because our industry is highly competitive, we compete with large companies and municipalities, many of whom have greater financial and operational resources.  The non-hazardous solid waste collection and disposal industry includes large national, publicly-traded waste management companies; regional, publicly-held and privately-owned companies; and numerous small, local, privately-owned companies.  Additionally, many counties and municipalities operate their own waste collection and disposal facilities and have competitive advantages not available to private enterprises. If we are unable to successfully compete against our competitors, our ability to retain existing customers and obtain future business could be adversely affected.

WE MAY LOSE CONTRACTS THROUGH COMPETITIVE BIDDING, EARLY TERMINATION OR GOVERNMENTAL ACTION, OR WE MAY HAVE TO SUBSTANTIALLY LOWER PRICES IN ORDER TO RETAIN CERTAIN CONTRACTS, ANY OF WHICH WOULD CAUSE OUR REVENUE TO DECLINE.

We are parties to contracts with municipalities and other associations and agencies.  Many of these contracts are or will be subject to competitive bidding.  We may not be the successful bidder, or we may have to substantially lower prices in order to be the successful bidder.  In addition, some of our customers may terminate their contracts with us before the end of the contract term.  If we were not able to replace revenue from contracts lost through competitive bidding or early termination or from lowering prices or from the renegotiation of existing contracts with other revenue within a reasonable time period, our revenue could decline.

Municipalities may annex unincorporated areas within counties where we provide collection services, and as a result, our customers in annexed areas may be required to obtain service from competitors who have been franchised or contracted by the annexing municipalities to provide those services.  Some of the local jurisdictions in which we currently operate grant exclusive franchises to collection and disposal companies, others may do so in the future, and we may enter markets where franchises are granted by certain municipalities.  Unless we are awarded a franchise by these municipalities, we will lose customers which will cause our revenue to decline.

EFFORTS BY LABOR UNIONS TO ORGANIZE OUR EMPLOYEES COULD DIVERT MANAGEMENT ATTENTION AND INCREASE OUR OPERATING EXPENSES.

We do not have any union representation in our operations.  Groups of employees may seek union representation in the future, and the negotiation of collective bargaining agreements could divert management attention and result in increased operating expenses and lower net income.  If we are unable to negotiate acceptable collective bargaining agreements, we might have to wait through “cooling off” periods, which are often followed by union-initiated work stoppages, including strikes.  Depending on the type and duration of these work stoppages, our operating expenses could increase significantly.
 
 
13

 
 
POOR DECISIONS BY OUR REGIONAL AND LOCAL MANAGERS COULD RESULT IN THE LOSS OF CUSTOMERS OR AN INCREASE IN COSTS, OR ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO OBTAIN FUTURE BUSINESS.

We manage our operations on a decentralized basis.  Therefore, regional and local managers have the authority to make many decisions concerning their operations without obtaining prior approval from executive officers.  Poor decisions by regional or local managers could result in the loss of customers or an increase in costs, or adversely affect our ability to obtain future business.

WE ARE VULNERABLE TO FACTORS AFFECTING OUR LOCAL MARKETS, WHICH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR STOCK PRICE RELATIVE TO OUR COMPETITORS.

Because the non-hazardous waste business is local in nature, our business in one or more regions or local markets may be adversely affected by events and economic conditions relating to those regions or markets even if the other regions of the country are not affected.  As a result, our financial performance may not compare favorably to our competitors with operations in other regions, and our stock price could be adversely affected by our inability to compete effectively with our competitors.

SEASONAL FLUCTUATIONS WILL CAUSE OUR BUSINESS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS TO VARY AMONG QUARTERS, WHICH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR STOCK PRICE.

Based on historic trends experienced by the businesses we have acquired, we expect our operating results to vary seasonally, with revenue typically lowest in the first quarter, higher in the second and third quarters, and again lower in the fourth quarter.  This seasonality generally reflects the lower volume of waste during the winter months.  Adverse weather conditions negatively affect waste collection productivity, resulting in higher labor and operational costs.  The general increase in precipitation during the winter months increases the weight of collected waste, resulting in higher disposal costs, as costs are often calculated on a per ton basis.  Because of these factors, we expect operating income to be generally lower in the winter months.  As a result, our operating results may be negatively affected by these variations.  Additionally, severe weather during any time of the year can negatively affect the costs of collection and disposal and may cause temporary suspensions of our collection services.  Long periods of inclement weather may interfere with collection operations and reduce the volume of waste generated by our customers.  Any of these conditions can adversely affect our business and results of operations, which could negatively affect our stock price.

THE MARKET IN WHICH WE PARTICIPATE IS INTENSELY COMPETITIVE, AND IF WE DO NOT COMPETE EFFECTIVELY, OUR OPERATING RESULTS COULD BE HARMED.

The market for enterprise Software as a Service (SaaS) business applications and development platforms is highly competitive, rapidly evolving and fragmented, and subject to changing technology, shifting customer needs and frequent introductions of new products and services.

WE ARE DEPENDENT ON OUR MANAGEMENT TEAM AND DEVELOPMENT AND OPERATIONS PERSONNEL, AND THE LOSS OF ONE OR MORE KEY EMPLOYEES OR GROUPS COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS AND PREVENT US FROM IMPLEMENTING OUR BUSINESS PLAN IN A TIMELY MANNER.

Our success depends substantially upon the continued services of our executive officers and other key members of management, particularly our chief executive officer, Mr. Jeffrey S. Cosman. From time to time, there may be changes in our executive management team resulting from the hiring or departure of executives. Such changes in our executive management team may be disruptive to our business. We are also substantially dependent on the continued service of our existing development and operations personnel because of the complexity of our service and technologies. We have an employment agreement with Mr. Cosman. At this time, we do not maintain key person life insurance policies on any of our employees. The loss of one or more of our key employees or groups could seriously harm our business.

In 2010, Mr. Cosman founded Legacy Waste Solutions, LLC, a compressed natural gas consulting business. Mr. Cosman holds a minority equity interest in Legacy Waste Solutions LLC.
 
 
14

 
 
The Company does not have an arrangement with Legacy Waste Solutions, LLC or Mr. Cosman for past, current or future services to be performed between Legacy Waste Solutions and Here To Serve. Mr. Cosman may in the future consult from time to time with Legacy Waste Solutions on matters that do not conflict with the operation of the Company. Mr. Cosman spends approximately two hours a month on Legacy Waste Solutions.

Additionally, Mr. Cosman has a minority equity interest in Rosewood Communication Supply, a warehouse centric telecom parts and supplies distributor. The Company does not have an arrangement with Rosewood Communication Supply or Mr. Cosman for past, current or future services to be performed between Rosewood Communication Supply and Here To Serve. Mr. Cosman spends approximately one hour per week on Rosewood Communication Supply.

OUR BUSINESS IS SUBJECT TO CHANGING REGULATIONS REGARDING CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND PUBLIC DISCLOSURE THAT HAVE INCREASED BOTH OUR COSTS AND THE RISK OF NON-COMPLIANCE.

We are subject to rules and regulations by various governing bodies, including, for example, the Securities and Exchange Commission, which are charged with the protection of investors and the oversight of companies whose securities are publicly traded. Our efforts to comply with new and changing regulations have resulted in and are likely to continue to result in, increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities.  Moreover, because these laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance becomes available. This evolution may result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and additional costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to our disclosure and governance practices. If we fail to address and comply with these regulations and any subsequent changes, our business may be harmed.

WE NEED ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO DEVELOP OUR BUSINESS.

The development of our services will require the commitment of substantial resources to implement our business plan. In addition, substantial expenditures will be required to enable us to complete projects in the future.  Currently, we have a credit agreement with Comerica Bank filed as an exhibit to this Form 8-K.  However, it is likely we would need to seek additional financing through subsequent future private offerings of our equity securities, issuing convertible debt securities or through strategic partnerships and other arrangements with corporate partners.

We cannot give you any assurance that any additional financing will be available to us, or if available, will be on terms favorable to us.  The sale of additional equity securities will result in dilution to our stockholders.  The occurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. If adequate additional financing is not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to implement our business development plan or continue our business operations.

IF WE FAIL TO ESTABLISH AND MAINTAIN AN EFFECTIVE SYSTEM OF INTERNAL CONTROL, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO REPORT OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS ACCURATELY OR TO PREVENT FRAUD. ANY INABILITY TO REPORT AND FILE OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS ACCURATELY AND TIMELY COULD HARM OUR REPUTATION AND ADVERSELY IMPACT THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.
 
Effective internal control is necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, we may not be able to manage our business as effectively as we would if an effective control environment existed, and our business and reputation with investors may be harmed. As a result, our small size and any current internal control deficiencies may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operation and access to capital. 
 
We currently have insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements. Additionally, there is a lack of formal process and timeline for closing the books and records at the end of each reporting period and such weaknesses restrict the Company’s ability to timely gather, analyze and report information relative to the financial statements.
 
Because of the Company’s limited resources, there are limited controls over information processing. There is inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives. Our Company’s management is composed of a small number of individuals resulting in a situation where limitations on segregation of duties exist. In order to remedy this situation we would need to hire additional staff. Currently, the Company is unable to hire additional staff to facilitate greater segregation of duties but will reassess its capabilities.

RISKS RELATED TO OWNERSHIP OF OUR COMMON STOCK

THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK IS LIKELY TO BE VOLATILE AND COULD SUBJECT US TO LITIGATION.

The market price of our common stock has been and is likely to continue to be subject to wide fluctuations. Factors affecting the market price of our common stock include:
 
variations in our operating results, earnings per share, cash flows from operating activities, deferred revenue, and other financial metrics and non-financial metrics, and how those results compare to analyst expectations;
issuances of new stock which dilutes earnings per share;
forward looking guidance to industry and financial analysts related to future revenue and earnings per share;
the net increases in the number of customers and paying subscriptions, either independently or as compared with published expectations of industry, financial or other analysts that cover our company;
changes in the estimates of our operating results or changes in recommendations by securities analysts that elect to follow our common stock;
announcements of technological innovations, new services or service enhancements, strategic alliances or significant agreements by us or by our competitors;
announcements by us or by our competitors of mergers or other strategic acquisitions, or rumors of such transactions involving us or our competitors;
announcements of customer additions and customer cancellations or delays in customer purchases;
recruitment or departure of key personnel;
trading activity by a limited number of stockholders who together beneficially own a majority of our outstanding common stock.
 
In addition, if the stock market in general experiences uneven investor confidence, the market price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, operating results or financial condition. The market price of our common stock might also decline in reaction to events that affect other companies within, or outside, our industries even if these events do not directly affect us. Some companies that have experienced volatility in the trading price of their stock have been the subject of securities class action litigation. If we are to become the subject of such litigation, it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources.

THE CONCENTRATION OF OUR CAPITAL STOCK OWNERSHIP BY OUR CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER WILL LIKELY LIMIT YOUR ABILITY TO INFLUENCE CORPORATE MATTERS.
Mr. Jeffrey S. Cosman, our chief executive officer, is the beneficial owner of 62.9% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. As a result, our chief executive officer could have significant influence over most matters that require approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions, even if other stockholders oppose them. This concentration of ownership might also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of our company that other stockholders may view as beneficial.

OUR COMMON STOCK IS CURRENTLY ELIGIBLE FOR QUOTATION ON THE OTQB OPERATED BY OTC MARKETS GROUP, INC. AND AN INVESTOR’S ABILITY TO TRADE OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE LIMITED BY TRADING VOLUME.

The trading volume in our common shares has been relatively limited.  A consistently active trading market for our common stock may not develop on the OTCQB.  The average daily trading volume in our common stock on the OTCQB as of February 17, 2015 was negligible. Accordingly, the ability of our shareholders to sell their shares of our common stock may be extremely limited.

 
16

 
 
WE ARE SUBJECT TO PENNY STOCK RULES WHICH WILL MAKE THE SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK MORE DIFFICULT TO SELL.

We are currently subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules because our shares of common stock sell below $5.00 per share.  Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00.  The penny stock rules require broker-dealers to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document 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 must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson, 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 completing 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 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.  The penny stock rules are burdensome and may reduce purchases of any offerings and reduce the trading activity for shares of our common stock.  As long as our shares of common stock are subject to the penny stock rules, the holders of such shares of common stock may find it more difficult to sell their securities.

SALES OF OUR CURRENTLY ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING STOCK MAY BECOME FREELY TRADABLE PURSUANT TO RULE 144 AND MAY DILUTE THE MARKET FOR YOUR SHARES AND HAVE A DEPRESSIVE EFFECT ON THE PRICE OF THE SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK

A substantial majority of our outstanding shares of common stock are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.  As restricted shares, these shares may be resold only pursuant to an effective registration statement or under the requirements of Rule 144 or other applicable exemptions from registration under the Act and as required under applicable state securities laws.  Rule 144 provides in essence that an Affiliate (as such term is defined in Rule 144(a)(1)) of an issuer who has held restricted securities for a period of at least six months (one year after filing Form 10 information with the SEC for shell companies and former shell companies) may, under certain conditions, sell every three months, in brokerage transactions, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of a company’s outstanding shares of common stock or the average weekly trading volume during the four calendar weeks prior to the sale (the four calendar week rule does not apply to companies quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board).  Rule 144 also permits, under certain circumstances, the sale of securities, without any limitation, by a person who is not an Affiliate of the Company and who has satisfied a one-year holding period. A sale under Rule 144 or under any other exemption from the Act, if available, or pursuant to subsequent registrations of our shares of common stock, may have a depressive effect upon the price of our shares of common stock in any active market that may develop.

YOU WILL EXPERIENCE DILUTION OF YOUR OWNERSHIP INTEREST BECAUSE OF THE FUTURE ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND OUR PREFERRED STOCK.

In the future, we may issue our authorized but previously unissued equity securities, resulting in the dilution of the ownership interests of our present stockholders.  We are currently authorized to issue an aggregate of 80,000,000 shares of capital stock consisting of 75,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.025 and 5,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock, par value $0.001.

We may also issue additional shares of our common stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for common stock in connection with hiring or retaining employees or consultants, future acquisitions, future sales of our securities for capital raising purposes, or for other business purposes.  The future issuance of any such additional shares of our common stock or other securities may create downward pressure on the trading price of our common stock.  There can be no assurance that we will not be required to issue additional shares, warrants or other convertible securities in the future in conjunction with hiring or retaining employees or consultants, future acquisitions, future sales of our securities for capital raising purposes or for other business purposes, including at a price (or exercise prices) below the price at which shares of our common stock are trading.

 
17

 
 
 POSSIBLE ADVERSE EFFECT OF ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED STOCK

Our Restated Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, with designations, rights and preferences as determined from time to time by the Board of Directors. As a result of the foregoing, the Board of Directors can issue, without further shareholder approval, Preferred Stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of Common Stock.  The issuance of Preferred Stock could, under certain circumstances, discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of the Company.

WE DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY DIVIDENDS AND INVESTORS SHOULD NOT BUY OUR COMMON STOCK EXPECTING TO RECEIVE DIVIDENDS.

We have not paid any dividends on our common stock in the past, and do not anticipate that we will declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future.  Consequently, investors will only realize an economic gain on their investment in our common stock if the price appreciates.  Investors should not purchase our common stock expecting to receive cash dividends. Because we do not pay dividends, and there may be limited trading, investors may not have any manner to liquidate or receive any payment on their investment.  Therefore, our failure to pay dividends may cause investors to not see any return on investment even if we are successful in our business operations.  In addition, because we do not pay dividends we may have trouble raising additional funds, which could affect our ability to expand our business operations.

Overview
 
We intend for this discussion to provide information that will assist in understanding our financial statements, the changes in certain key items in those financial statements, and the primary factors that accounted for those changes, as well as how certain accounting principles affect our financial statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and accompanying notes for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 and the financial statements of the Predecessor, Meridian Waste Services, LLC for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.
 
Executive Overview
 
General Overview of Our Business
 
The platform operation of the Company is our subsidiary Here To Serve Missouri Waste Division, LLC (“HTS Waste”).  HTS Waste is in the business of collection of non-hazardous solid waste.  Our revenue is generated primarily by collection services provided to residential customers.  The following table reflects our total revenue for the previous two years along with a projected/annualized 2014 (dollars in thousands):

The Company’s revenues for the period from May 16, 2014 through September 30, 2014 were $4,827,855.  This would convert into annualized revenue of $12,874,000, a 13% increase over the 2013 revenue of the Predecessor, Meridian Waste Services, LLC (“MWS”).  This projected increase is due to the continued growth of MWS and the expansion into other service product lines.
 
Gross Profit
 
Gross profit percentage for the four and one-half months ending September 30, 2014 is 23%.  This is relatively consistent with the gross profit percentage of the Predecessor, MWS.  The small amount of decrease is due to an increase in depreciation expense included in cost of sales and an increase in disposal cost.  The increase in depreciation expense is due to the application of “push-down” accounting adjusting the value of depreciable property to fair value on May 15, 2014 and the addition of new equipment.
 
Operating Expenses
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2,787,552 for the four and one-half months ending September 30, 2014.  This significant increase over the level of selling, general and administrative expenses of the Predecessor is again related to the use of “push-down” accounting related to the business combination with the Predecessor, MWS along with certain one-time expenses related to corporate structure changes and the acquisition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of September 30, 2014, the Company had negative working capital of $5,011,854.  This lack of liquidity is mitigated by the Company’s ability to generate cash from operating activities.  Cash generated from operating activities was $1,735,200 for the four and one-half months ending September 30, 2014.
 
The net cash provided by operating activities was generally used to fund investing activities which included the purchase of $1,053,280 additional equipment.  Also, $427,455 was used to reduce long term debt.  
 
Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. We have been funding our operations through credit and convertible debt financings.
 
Our primary uses of cash have been for working capital purposes to support our operations and our efforts to become a reporting company with the SEC. All funds received have been expended in the furtherance of growing our business operations, establishing our brand and making sure our work is completed with efficiency and of the highest quality. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity over the near to long term:
 
 
o
An increase in working capital requirements to finance additional marketing efforts,
 
 
o
Increases in advertising, public relations and sales promotions for existing customers and to attract new customers as the company expands, and
 
 
o
The cost of being a public company.
 
We are not aware of any known trends or any known demands, commitments or events that will result in our liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way. We are not aware of any matters that would have an impact on future operations.

Our net revenues are not sufficient to fund our operating expenses. At September 30, 2014, we had a cash balance of $384,166.  Since inception, we have not raised any capital from the sale of common stock to fund our operating expenses. The Company continues to use its Credit Facility with Comerica Bank for working capital purposes. We currently have no material commitments for capital expenditures and believe that our cash requirements over the next 12 months will be approximately $1,000,000.
 
We may be required to raise additional funds, particularly if we are unable to generate positive cash flow as a result of our operations. We estimate that based on current plans and assumptions, that our available cash will not be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements under our present operating expectations, without further financing, for up to 12 months. Other than our working capital, we presently have no other alternative source of working capital. We may not have sufficient working capital to fund the expansion of our operations and to provide working capital necessary for our ongoing operations and obligations. We will need to raise additional capital to fund our operating expenses, pay our obligations, and grow our company.
 
Our future operations will be dependent on our ability to secure additional financing. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. However, the potential trading price of our common stock and a downturn in the U.S. equity and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. 
  
We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we may incur operating losses in the foreseeable future. Therefore, our auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
Our liquidity may be negatively impacted by the significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly.
 
Credit Agreement with Comerica Bank
 
On April 30, 2014, the Here to Serve – Missouri Waste Division LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a 24 month senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Comerica Bank, as lender (the “Credit Agreement”). Borrowings under the Credit Facility will be used for working capital purposes.
 
The Credit Agreement provides for an initial commitment of $1,250,000, Borrowings under the Credit Facility will bear interest in an amount not to exceed 25% per annum or the highest applicable usury ceiling, whichever is less. The Credit Facility is secured by a lien on all assets of Missouri Waste Division LLC.
 
In addition to representations and warranties, affirmative, restrictive and financial covenants, and events of default (applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries) which are customary for credit facilities of this type, the Credit Agreement provides that the Company must not permit its financial condition to materially differ in any material negative way (as compared to its current financial condition) and must meet specified revenue targets as set forth in the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility is cross-defaulted with the Company’s other outstanding indebtedness and provides that a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Credit Agreement), a Change of Control (as defined in the Credit Agreement), a judgment for an amount in excess of $50,000 or an adverse change in the Company’s financial condition, as determined by the lender acting in good faith, are all events of default.
 
As consideration for the entry into the Credit Agreement, the Company agreed to pay certain fees to the lender, including a non-refundable commitment fee equal to $115,000. For more detailed information with respect to the Credit Agreement, please see exhibit 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K/A.
 
Inflation and Seasonality
 
Based on our industry and our historic trends, we expect our operations to vary seasonally.  Typically, revenue will be highest in the second and third calendar quarters and lowest in the first and fourth calendar quarters.  These seasonal variations result in fluctuations in waste volumes due to weather conditions and general economic activity.  We also expect that our operating expenses may be higher during the winter months due to periodic adverse weather conditions that can slow the collection of waste, resulting in higher labor and operational costs.  
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company follows the guidance of ASC 605 (formerly the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104) for revenue recognition.  In general, the Company records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
 
 
20

 
We generally provide services under contracts with municipalities or individual customers. Municipal and commercial contracts are generally long-term and often have renewal options. Advance billings are recorded as deferred revenue, and revenue is recognized over the period services are provided. We recognize revenue when all four of the following criteria are met:
 
  
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists such as a service agreement with a municipality, a hauling customer or a disposal customer;
  
Services have been performed such as the collection and hauling of waste;
  
The price of the services provided to the customer is fixed or determinable; and
  
Collectability is reasonably assured.
 
Stock Based Compensation
 
The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 718 (formerly SFAS No. 123(R)), “Share-Based Payment,” under the modified prospective method, SFAS No 123(R) eliminates accounting for share-based compensation transaction using the intrinsic value method prescribed under APB Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and requires instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method.  Under the modified prospective method, the Company is required to recognize compensation cost for share-based payments to employees based on their grant date fair value from the beginning of the fiscal period in which the recognition provisions are first applied.  For periods prior to the adoption, the financial statements are unchanged, and the pro forma disclosures previously required by ASC 718, as amended by SFAS No. 148, will continue to be required under ASC 718 to the extent those amounts differ from those in the statement of operations.
 
All stock-based payments to employees and to nonemployee directors for their services as directors, including any grants of restricted stock and stock options, are measured at fair value on the grant date and recognized in the statements of operations as compensation or other expense over the relevant service period. Stock-based payments to nonemployees are recognized as an expense over the period of performance. Such payments are measured at fair value at the earlier of the date a performance commitment is reached or the date performance is completed. In addition, for awards that vest immediately and are non-forfeitable the measurement date is the date the award is issued.
 
Use of Estimates 
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
 
The Company’s significant estimates and assumptions include the fair value of stock based compensation; the carrying value, recoverability and impairment, if any, of long-lived assets. Those significant accounting estimates or assumptions bear the risk of change due to the fact that there are uncertainties attached to those estimates or assumptions, and certain estimates or assumptions are difficult to measure or value.
Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
 
Management regularly reviews its estimates utilizing currently available information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical experience and reasonable assumptions. After such reviews, and if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Property and Equipment 
 
Property and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, varying from 3 to 5 years or, when applicable, the life of the lease, whichever is shorter.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
We follow paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of our financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of our financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with CustomersAmendments in this Update create Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. In addition, the amendments supersede the cost guidance in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition—Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts, and create new Subtopic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs—Contracts with Customers. In summary, the core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This Accounting Standards Update is the final version of Proposed Accounting Standards Update 2011-230—Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and Proposed Accounting Standards Update 2011–250—Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Codification Amendments, both of which have been deleted. Accounting Standards Update 2014-09. The amendments in this Update are effectively for the Company for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of ASU 2014-09 on the consolidated financial statements.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
There were no off-balance sheet arrangements during the nine months ended June 30, 2014 that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to our interests.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. Our Common Stock, when and if a trading market develops, may fall within the definition of penny stock and be subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000, or annual incomes exceeding $200,000 individually, or $300,000, together with their spouse).
 
For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchaser’s prior written consent to the transaction. Additionally, for any transaction, other than exempt transactions, involving a penny stock, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk disclosure document mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, the “penny stock” rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our Common Stock and may affect the ability of investors to sell their Common Stock in the secondary market.
   
Dividend Policy
 
Any future determination as to the declaration and payment of dividends on shares of our Common Stock will be made at the discretion of our board of directors out of funds legally available for such purpose. We are under no contractual obligations or restrictions to declare or pay dividends on our shares of Common Stock. In addition, we currently have no plans to pay such dividends. Our board of directors currently intends to retain all earnings for use in the business for the foreseeable future. See “Risk Factors.”

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
  
There are no material proceedings to which any director or officer, or any associate of any such director or officer, is a party that is adverse to our Company or any of our subsidiaries or has a material interest adverse to our Company or any of our subsidiaries. No director or executive officer has been a director or executive officer of any business which has filed a bankruptcy petition or had a bankruptcy petition filed against it during the past ten years. No current director or executive officer has been convicted of a criminal offense or is the subject of a pending criminal proceeding during the past ten years. No current director or executive officer has been the subject of any order, judgment or decree of any court permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities during the past ten years. No current director or officer has been found by a court to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law during the past ten years.
 
In addition, there are no material proceedings to which any affiliate of our Company, or any owner of record or beneficially of more than five percent of any class of voting securities of our Company, is a party that is adverse to our Company or any of our subsidiaries or has a material interest adverse to our Company or any of our subsidiaries. We are not currently involved in any litigation that we believe could have a materially adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
 
However, from time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.
 
RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
 
Reference is made to Item 3.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K for a description of recent sales of unregistered securities, which is hereby incorporated by reference.
 
INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
 
The directors and officers of the Company are indemnified as provided by the New York corporate law and our Bylaws. We have agreed to indemnify each of our directors and certain officers against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions described above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than our payment of expenses incurred or paid by our director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
 
We have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities is asserted by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our legal counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit the question of whether such indemnification is against public policy to a court of appropriate jurisdiction. We will then be governed by the court’s decision.
 
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
 
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we issued 9,054,134 shares of our Common Stock to Here to Serve, valued at a closing price of $0.35 per share on October 17, 2014 or $3,168,947, its affiliates or assigns and 230,000 shares of our Common Stock were cancelled, in exchange for, among other things, our purchase of the Membership Interests. Such securities were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933.
 
These securities were not registered under the Securities Act. These securities qualified for exemption under Section 4a(2) of the Securities Act since the issuance of securities by us did not involve a public offering. The offering was not a “public offering” as defined in Section 4a(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of securities offered. We did not undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of securities to a high number of investors. In addition, these shareholders had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4a(2) of the Securities Act since the Conventions Shareholders agreed to and received share certificates bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act. This restriction ensures that these securities would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a “public offering.” Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4a(2) of the Securities Act.

As such, immediately following the closing of the Purchase, Agreement Here to Serve, its affiliates and assigns collectively hold approximately 90.87% of the total combined voting power of all classes of the common stock entitled to vote. Reference is made to the disclosures set forth under Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, which disclosure is incorporated herein by reference.

Effective October 31, 2014, David Rabe, Carmelo Foti, Liborio Borsellino and Donald O’Toole  resigned from their positions as members of the board of directors. Effective October 31, 2013, Jeffrey S. Cosman was appointed as a Director of the company. There were no disagreements between any of the foregoing resigning officer and directors and us or any other officer or director of the Company.

The business background descriptions of the newly appointed officer and director is as follows:
 
Jeffrey S. Cosman, 43, Chief Executive Officer, Director
 
Jeffrey S. Cosman combines over 10 years’ experience in the solid waste industry, which includes local operations, local and regional accounting and corporate finance.  In addition, Mr. Cosman has experience in mobile-based app development, medical device sales leadership and capital raising. From 1993 through 1996, Mr. Cosman had a career in professional baseball with the New York Mets’ minor league organization.  After retiring from baseball, Mr. Cosman worked at Republic Services from February 1996 until February 1999.  In his role in Corporate Finance, Mr. Cosman assisted due diligence of acquisitions, provided accounting guidance in over 168 transactions totaling $1.6 Billion in annualized revenue, supported Corporate Controllers in monthly reporting and assisted in the preparation of a registration statement for Republic Services. In the early 2000’s, Mr. Cosman became involved in start-up technology in the medical device industry, but subsequently left to focus on a career in the solid waste industry, founding, in 2010, Legacy Waste Solutions, LLC, a compressed natural gas consulting business.  In 2012, Mr. Cosman purchased Rosewood Communication Supply, a warehouse centric telecom parts and supplies distributor as a partner. Mr. Cosman holds a B.B.A. in Managerial Finance and Banking and Finance, and a Bachelors of Accountancy from the University of Mississippi.  The Board believes that Mr. Cosman’s “ground up” experience in the solid waste industry, together with his background in related fields, as well as finance, will support the Company’s growth plans as it moves forward in implementing its transition into the waste industry.
 
Mr. Cosman holds a minority equity interest in Legacy Waste Solutions LLC. The Company does not have an arrangement with Legacy Waste Solutions, LLC or Mr. Cosman for past, current or future services to be performed between Legacy Waste Solutions and Here To Serve. Mr. Cosman may in the future consult from time to time with Legacy Waste Solutions on matters that do not conflict with the operation of the Company. Mr. Cosman spends approximately two hours a month on Legacy Waste Solutions.

Additionally, Mr. Cosman has a minority equity interest in Rosewood Communication Supply. The Company does not have an arrangement with Rosewood Communication Supply or Mr. Cosman for past, current or future services to be performed between Rosewood Communication Supply and Here To Serve. Mr. Cosman spends approximately one hour per week on Rosewood Communication Supply.

The Company will pay Mr. Cosman $5,000 per month and the remaining compensation package shall accrue until the Company receives funding in the amount of at least $250,000. At such time, the compensation will be paid on a regular basis and the accrued sums will be deemed due and payable.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2014
 
NOTE 1 – EXPLANATION OF CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING BASIS

The merger of Here to Server Holding Corp. (HTSHC) and Meridian Waste Services, LLC became effective May 15, 2014.  The merger was accounted for by HTSHC using business combination accounting.  Under this method, the purchase price paid by the acquirer is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date based on the fair value.  By the application of “push-down” accounting, our assets, liabilities and equity were accordingly adjusted to fair value on May 15, 2014.  Determining the fair value of certain assets and liabilities assumed is judgmental in nature and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions.

Due to the application of “push-down” accounting, our financial statements are presented in two distinct periods to indicate the application of two different basis of accounting.  Periods prior to May 15, 2014 are identified herein as “Predecessor,” while periods subsequent to the HTSHC merger are identified as “Successor.”  As a result of the change in basis of accounting from historical cost to reflect the HTSHC’s purchase cost, the financial statements for Predecessor periods are not comparable to those of Successor periods.

The following notes, note #2 through note #13 are applicable to the unaudited periods of these financial statements.  Notes related to the audited periods are included in the audit report for Meridian Waste Services, LLC (Predecessor) which is included with this report.

NOTE 2 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Nature of Business

Currently the Company is operating under three separate Limited Liability Companies; Here To Serve Missouri Waste Division, LLC (“HTSMWD”), a Missouri Limited Liability Company, Here To Serve Technology Division, LLC (“HTST), a Georgia Limited Liability Company and Here To Serve Georgia Waste Division, LLC (“HTSGWD”), a Georgia Limited Liability Company.

Through acquisitions and restructuring, HTST has repositioned the Company’s presence in the software development industry.  By acquiring products developed for the mobile app market and by shifting the focus of future development, HTST is anticipating significant expansion into this growing business segment.

In 2014, HTSMWD purchased the assets of a large solid waste disposal company in the St. Louis, MO market.  This acquisition is considered the platform company for future acquisitions in the solid waste disposal industry.  HTSGWD was created to facilitate expansion in this industry throughout the Southeast.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Impairment of long-lived assets

The Company periodically reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable.  The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less that the carrying amount of the asset.  The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value.  During the year ending September 30, 2014, the Company experienced no losses due to impairment.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that based on available evidence, which are not expected to be realized.

Use of Estimates

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

Accounts Receivable

At September 30, 2014 the Company had $689,716 of trade receivables.  Here to Serve – Missouri Waste Division, LLC, primarily owns these trade receivables.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated collection losses that will be incurred in collection of receivable related to commercial project invoices.  The estimated losses are based on managements’ evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable at the end of the accounting period.  At September 30, 2014, no such allowance was recorded.

Concentration of Credit Risks

The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, which could, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts; however, amounts in excess of the federally insured limit may be at risk if the bank experiences financial difficulties.

The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. At September 30, 2014 the Company had a series of convertible notes outstanding that could be converted into approximately 14,488,784 common shares. These are not presented in the statement of operations since the company incurred a loss and the effect of these shares is anti- dilutive.

NOTE 10 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (CONTINUED)

new authoritative accounting guidance (ASU No. 2009-05) under ASC Topic 820, provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the
identical liabilities is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the techniques provided for in this update.

The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of input, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 – Input other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets of liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liabilities.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

The following table sets forth the liabilities at September 30, 2014, which is recorded on the balance sheet at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required, these are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Stockholder and Board of Directors
Meridian Waste Services, LLC


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Meridian Waste Services, LLC as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the related statements of operations, changes in members’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2013. 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Meridian Waste Services, LLC as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 2013 and 2012

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NATURE OF OPERATIONS – The Company was organized December 9, 2004 as a Limited Liability Company under the laws of the State of Missouri.  The Company is taxed as an S Corporation.  Meridian Waste Services LLC (the Company) is primarily in the business of residential and commercial waste hauling and has contracts with various cities and municipalities.  The majority of the Company’s customers are located in the St. Louis metropolitan area.

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - The Company follows accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, accordingly it utilizes the accrual method of accounting whereby revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when incurred.

CONCENTRATIONS OF RISK – The Company maintains its cash balances at one financial institution located in St. Louis, MO.  At various times during the year the account balances exceed the Federally insured limits.  The Company has not experienced any losses on the accounts and management believes it is not exposed to any significant risk on cash.

The Company has significant revenue with two major municipal customers.  These customers accounted for approximately 52.66% and 57.83% of revenue for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

    31.58 %     34.72 %
Customer B
    21.08 %     23.11 %
      52.66 %     57.83 %


CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS – For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers money market funds, certificates of deposit, Treasury bills, and any other short-term debt securities with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.  Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

INCOME TAXES – The members elected to have the Company’s income taxed as an “S” Corporation under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code; therefore, taxable income or loss is reported to the individual members for inclusion on their personal tax returns.  No provision for federal and state income taxes is included in these statements.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT - Property and equipment is stated at cost.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the assets.
 
    YEARS
Trucks
 
5 years
Containers and carts   7 years
Leasehold Improvements   7-15 years
Furniture and equipment
 
5-7 years
Office equipment
 
3-7 years
 
Depreciation expense amounted to $1,424,979 and $1,553,121 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Expenditures for major renewals and betterment that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized.  Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETSIn accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 360-10, “Property, Plant and Equipment”, the Company periodically reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable.  The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset.  The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value.  As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company did not impair any long-lived assets.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS – The Company adopted ASC topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (ASC 820), formerly SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements,” effective January 1, 2009.  ASC 820 defines “fair value” as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (and exit price0 in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.  There was no impact relating to the adoption of ASC 820 to the Company’s financial statements.

ASC 820 also describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1:  Observable inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets.
Level 2:  Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Inputs that are generally unobservable.  These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

Financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other current liabilities.  The carrying amounts of such financial instruments in the accompanying balance sheets approximate their fair values due to their relatively short-term nature.  The fair value of long-term debt

is based on current rates at which the Company could borrow funds with similar remaining maturities.  The carrying amounts approximate fair value.  It is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to any significant currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

ADVERTISING - The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred except for Sponsorship and calendar costs which is capitalized and amortized over 12 months.  Advertising expense amounted to $95,403 and $116,187 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

NOTE I – NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update to the Comprehensive Income Topic in the Accounting Standards Codifications.  This update requires separate presentation of the components that are reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income either on the face of the financial statements or in the notes to the financial statements.  This update also requires companies to disclose the income statement line items impacted by any significant reclassifications, such as the gains and losses on cash flow hedges and defined benefit pension adjustments.  The adoption of the standard did not have an impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption.
 
NOTE J – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through July 16, 2014, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

 
On May 15, 2014 the Company signed an asset purchase agreement with Here To Serve – Missouri Waste Division, LLC, a Missouri limited liability company.  A down payment has been received in the amount of $25,000 which is recorded as a current liability on the Company’s books.

Introduction to Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information
 
The following unaudited pro forma combined financial information is presented to estimate effects of our purchase of the LLC’s owned by Here to Serve Holding Corp.

On October 17, 2014 Brooklyn Cheesecake & Desserts Company, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a membership interest purchase agreement with Here to Serve Holding Corp. (“HTSHC”) a Delaware Corporation and the shareholders of HTSHC, whereby the Company agreed to issue 9,054,134 shares of the Company for the interest in the following LLC’s:  Here to Serve – Missouri Waste Division, LLC, Here to Serve Technology Division, LLC and Here to Serve – Georgia Waste Division (“LLC’s”).  At closing, the Company issued 9,054,134 shares of the Company’s common stock to the HTSHC shareholders who obtained 89% voting control and management control of the Company.  The financial statements of the Company and the consolidated financial statements of the LLC’s after the acquisition will include the balance sheets at historical cost, the historical results of the Company and the LLC’s and the results of the Company from the acquisition date.

Upon closing of the transaction, the Company’s officers and directors resigned and a new board of directors and new officer were appointed which consist of Jeff S. Cosman and Rachel M. Cosman.  Following the closing, Mr. Cosman was also appointed as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the board of the Company and Mrs. Cosman was appointed as Secretary of the Company.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information assumes the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement was consummated as of January 1, 2013.  The financial statements of the Company included in the following unaudited pro forma combined financial information are derived from the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ending December 31, 2013 and the unaudited financial statements of the LLC’s for the same period.  The pro forma combined financial information for the nine months ending September 30, 2014 are derived from unaudited financial statements of the Company and the LLC's for the nine months ending September 30, 2014.

The information presented in the unaudited pro forma combined financial information does not purport to represent what our financial position would have been had the membership interest purchase agreement occurred as of the dates indicated, nor is it indicative of our financial position for any period.  You should not rely on this information as being indicative of the historical results that would have been achieved had the companies always been consolidated or the future results that the consolidated company will experience after the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement Transaction.

The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that the Company believes is reasonable under the circumstances.  The unaudited pro forma combined financial information should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and related notes of the Company.
