BLASTGARD INTERNATIONAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
 
(1)           Operations and Basis of Presentation

BlastGard International, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on September 26, 2003 as BlastGard Technologies, Inc. (“BTI”) in the State of Florida, to design and market proprietary blast mitigation materials. The Company created, designs, develops and markets proprietary blast mitigation materials.  The Company’s patented BlastWrap® technology effectively mitigates blast effects and suppresses post-blast fires.  The Company sub-contracts the manufacturing of products to licensed and qualified production facilities.
 
The Company went public through a shell merger on January 31, 2004.  On March 31, 2004, the Company changed its name to BlastGard International, Inc.  On March 4, 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of HighCom Securities, Inc. and subsidiaries.  The income of HighCom and subsidiaries is included from January 25, 2011, the date of the binding letter of intent.  These financial statements include the assets liabilities and activity of the following:
 
BlastGard International, Inc. BlastGard® International, Inc. is a Colorado corporation that has developed and designed proprietary blast mitigation materials.  The Company operates from offices in Clearwater, Florida and uses contract manufacturers in various locations for production.
 
BlastGard Technologies Inc. is a dormant Florida corporation.
 
HighCom Securities, Inc. HighCom Securities, Inc. (HighCom), originally located in San Francisco California, is a global provider of security equipment and a leader in advanced ballistic armor manufacturing.  The Company has a manufacturing facility in Columbus, Ohio for production and has moved the corporate offices to Clearwater, Florida as of May 1, 2011.
 
HighCom Online HighCom Online was a division offering an online outlet for HighCom Security products.  The Company operated out of the HighCom offices.  This division was closed as of December 31, 2011.
 
HC Ballistics, LLC HC Ballistics LLC was a joint venture with a related party to produce products for HighCom customers.  The Company operated out of HighCom offices and used a production facility in South Florida.  The agreement with the related party was terminated as of December 31, 2010.
 
All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
 
Going Concern
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring losses and has used significant cash in support of its operating activities.  These factors, among others, may indicate that the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.  The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitability.  The Company plans to generate the necessary cash flows with increased sales revenue over the next 12 months.  However, should the Company’s sales not provide sufficient cash flow; the Company has plans to raise additional working capital through debt and/or equity financings.    There is no assurance the Company will be successful in producing increased sales revenues or obtaining additional funding through debt and equity financings.

Accounting Policies
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles required management to make estimates and assumptions that affected the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considered all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents.  The Company had no cash equivalents at September 30, 2012 or December 31, 2011.
 
Financial Instruments
 
The carrying amounts of cash, receivables and current liabilities approximated fair value due to the short-term maturity of the instruments.  Debt obligations were carried at cost, which approximated fair value due to the prevailing market rate for similar instruments.
 
Fair Value Measurement
 
All financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities were recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements.  This value was evaluated on a recurring basis (at least annually).  Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States define fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on a measurement date. The accounting principles also established a fair value hierarchy which required an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.  Three levels of inputs were used to measure fair value.

Level 1: Quotes market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that were corroborated by market data.
 
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that were not corroborated by market data.
 
Accounts Receivable
 
Accounts receivable consisted of amounts due from customers (mostly government agencies) based in the United States and abroad.  Receivables are determined to be past due, based on payment terms of original contracts or invoices.  The Company used the allowance method for recognizing bad debts. When an account was deemed uncollectible, it was written off against the allowance. The Company generally does not require collateral for its accounts receivable. The Company does not typically charge interest on past due receivables.
 
As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, management believes an allowance for uncollectible accounts in the amount of $27,662 and $28,228, respectively, was adequate.
 
Inventory
 
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. The costs of conversion of inventories include raw materials and direct labor and fixed and variable production overheads, taking into account the stage of completion and the normal capacity of production facilities. The cost of inventories is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventory is reduced for the estimated losses due to obsolescence. This reduction is determined for groups of products based on purchases in the recent past and/or expected future demand.

Property and Equipment and Intangible Assets
 
Property and equipment were stated at cost. Depreciation was calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three to seven years.  Expenditures for additions and improvements were capitalized, while repairs and maintenance costs were expensed as incurred.  The cost and related accumulated depreciation of property and equipment sold or otherwise disposed of were removed from the accounts and any gain or loss was recorded in the year of disposal.  Depreciation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $33,396 and $66,493, respectively.

Intangible property assets are stated at their fair value acquisition cost. Amortization of intellectual property assets is calculated by the straight line method over their specific life (15 years).  Historical costs are reviewed and evaluated for their net realizable value of the assets.  Amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $150,575 and $132,630, respectively.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company evaluates the carrying value of its long-lived assets at least annually.  Impairment losses were recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment were present and the undiscounted future cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets were less than the assets’ carrying amount.   If such assets were impaired, the impairment to be recognized was measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.  Assets to be disposed of were reported at the lower of the carrying value or fair value, less costs to sell.  Based upon its most recent analysis, the Company believes that no impairment of property and equipment existed at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.
 
Debt Issue Costs
 
The costs related to the issuance of debt were capitalized and amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method over the lives of the related debt.  The straight-line method results in amortization that is not materially different from that calculated under the effective interest method.
 
Deferred Costs
 
Patent and trademark application costs are capitalized as deferred costs.  If a patent or trademark application was denied or expires, the costs incurred were charged to operations in the year the application was denied or expires.  Amortization commences once a patent or trademark was granted.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned.  The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met:
        (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
 
(ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been rendered to the customer,
 
(iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and
 
(iv) collectability is reasonably assured.
 
Research and Development
 
Research and development costs were expensed as incurred.
 
 
9

 
 
Advertising
 
Advertising costs were expensed as incurred. Advertising costs of $4,585 and $29 were incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
 
Shipping and Freight Costs
 
The Company includes shipping costs in cost of goods sold.

Income Taxes
 
Income taxes were provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the recorded book basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities were recovered or settled.  Deferred tax assets were also recognized for operating losses that were available to offset future taxable income and tax credits that were available to offset future federal income taxes, less the effect of any allowances considered necessary. The company use guidance provided by FASB ASC 740-10-25, Recognition, for reporting uncertain tax provisions.
 
Stock-based Compensation
 
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant, using assumptions for volatility, expected term, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. We have used one grouping for the assumptions as our option grants were primarily basic with similar characteristics. The expected term of options granted has been derived based upon our history of actual exercise behavior and represents the period of time that options granted were expected to be outstanding. Historical data was also used to estimate option exercises and employee terminations. Estimated volatility was based upon our historical market price at consistent points in a period equal to the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant and the dividend yield was based on the historical dividend yield.  Compensation expense for stock based compensation is recognized over the vesting period.
 
Income (Loss) per Common Share
 
Basic net loss per share excludes the impact of common stock equivalents.  Diluted net income (loss) per share utilizes the average market price per share when applying the treasury stock method in determining common stock equivalents.  As of December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2012, there were 8,500,000 and 7,050,000, respectively vested common stock options outstanding, which were excluded from the calculation of net loss per share-diluted because they were anti-dilutive. In addition, at December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2012 the Company had 104,333,335 warrants outstanding issued in connection with convertible promissory notes and stock sales.  The warrants were considered anti-dilutive for the three months ended September 30, 2012.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
We have reviewed the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) accounting pronouncements and interpretations thereof that have effectiveness dates during the periods reported and in future periods. The Company has carefully considered the new pronouncements that alter previous generally accepted accounting principles and does not believe that any new or modified principles will have a material impact on the corporation’s reported financial position or operations in the near term.  The applicability of any standard is subject to the formal review of our financial management and certain standards are under consideration.  Reference is made to these recent accounting pronouncements as if they are set forth therein in their entirety.

At September 30, 2012, we had convertible secured debt of $1,210,000. The secured debt has mandatory redemption provisions. A large portion of the secured debt provides that in the event (i) the Company is prohibited from issuing Conversion Shares, (ii) upon the occurrence of any other Event of Default (as defined in the Transaction Documents), that continues beyond any applicable cure period, (iii) a Change in Control (as defined below) occurs, or (iv) upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or any Subsidiary, then at the Secured Debt Holder’s  election, the Company must pay to the Secured Debt Holder not later than ten (10) days after request by such Secured Debt Holder, a sum of money determined by multiplying up to the outstanding principal amount of the Note designated by the Secured Debt Holder, at the Secured Debt Holder’s election, the greater of (i) 120%, or (ii) a fraction the numerator of which is the highest closing price of the Common Stock for the thirty days preceding the date demand is made by Secured Debt Holder and the denominator of which is the lowest applicable conversion price during such thirty (30) day period, plus accrued but unpaid interest and any other amounts due under the Transaction Documents ("Mandatory Redemption Payment"). The Mandatory Redemption Payment must be received by the Secured Debt Holder on the same date as the Conversion Shares otherwise deliverable or within ten (10) days after request, whichever is sooner ("Mandatory Redemption Payment Date"). Upon receipt of the Mandatory Redemption Payment, the corresponding Note principal, interest and other amounts will be deemed paid and no longer outstanding.  The Secured Debt Holder may rescind the election to receive a Mandatory Redemption Payment at any time until such payment is actually received.  Liquidated damages calculated that have been paid or accrued for the ten day period prior to the actual receipt of the Mandatory Redemption Payment by such Secured Debt Holder shall be credited against the Mandatory Redemption Payment provided the balance of the Mandatory Redemption Payment is timely paid.  “Change in Control” is defined as  (i) the Company  becoming a Subsidiary of another entity (other than a corporation formed by the Company for purposes of reincorporation in another U.S. jurisdiction), (ii) the sale, lease or transfer of substantially all the assets of the Company or any Subsidiary, (iii) a majority of the members of the Company’s board of directors as of the Closing Date no longer serving as directors of the Company, except as a result of natural causes or as a result of hiring additional outside directors in order to meet appropriate stock exchange requirements, or (iv) Michael Gordon, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company is no longer serving as Chief Executive Officer unless prior written consent of the Secured Debt Holder had been obtained by the Company.  The foregoing notwithstanding, the Secured Debt Holder may demand and receive from the Company the amount stated above or any other greater amount which the Secured Debt Holder is entitled to receive or demand pursuant to the Transaction Documents.

In connection with the aforementioned loan transactions, we also issued to our Secured Debt Holder, warrants to purchase 104,333,335 shares of the Company’s Common Stock which warrants are currently exercisable over a seven year period at an exercise price of $.01 per share, which exercise price is subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions of the warrant. In the event a fundamental transaction occurs as defined in the warrants, which includes without limitation any person or group acquiring 50% of the aggregate Common Stock of the Company, then the holder of the warrants may have the right to have the warrants redeemed at a price equal to the Black-Scholes value of said warrants.
 
The most recent subscription agreement dated in November 2011 pursuant to which the Secured Debt Holder advanced financing to the Company included a 12-month right of first refusal, a most favored nations provision which may result in additional securities being issued to the Secured Debt Holder and prohibitions against filing a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission without the Secured Debt Holder’s consent. The aforementioned provisions that have been agreed to with our Secured Debt Holder may make it very difficult or impossible in the future to obtain additional financing for the Company to support its operations and remaining a going concern.
 
Conversion of Accrued Expenses.
 
On March 8, 2011, BlastGard’s Board of Directors ratified, adopted and approved that James F. Gordon’s accrued salary of $160,000 (20 months at $8,000 per month covering May-December 2009, January-October 2010 and January-February 2011); Michael J. Gordon’s accrued salary of $160,000 (20 months at $8,000 per month covering May-December 2009, January-October 2010 and January-February 2011); and Morse & Morse, PLLC’s accrued legal bill of $67,025.30 be converted into a Convertible Non-Interest Bearing Demand Note, convertible into Common Shares of BlastGard at $.05 per share at the noteholder(s) discretion.

Prior Litigation Matter

Verde Partners Family Limited Partnership

On April 2, 2009, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement to settle our outstanding civil litigation. The Company will pay the sum of $125,000 over 18 months. The first monthly payment was paid within 30 days after the Defendants deliver to the Company’s counsel an original executed version of the Agreement and a promissory note in the amount of the remaining principal balance to bear interest in the amount of 6% per annum. Upon Verde’s receipt of the payment and promissory note, the parties shall jointly dismiss with prejudice all litigation between them, including the Pinellas County action and the Federal action. The company and Verde also entered into a license agreement whereby BlastGard obtains a fully paid up non-exclusive license for the 2 Verde patents for the remaining life of those patents in exchange for the Company paying Verde a 2% royalty for the life of the patents (which expired in the 2nd quarter of 2012), on the sales price received by BlastGard for BlastGard’s portion of all blast mitigation products sold by the company (the royalty was not on any third-party’s portion of any product containing blast mitigation products sold by BlastGard). The parties also agreed not to file any complaints with any state, federal or international agency or disciplinary body regarding any of the other parties or any person affiliated with any of the other parties or otherwise makes negative statements about them (in other words, a broad non-disparagement clause). The company and Verde also signed mutual general releases (excepting the obligations above) and a covenant not to sue.  At September 30, 2012, the Company was in arrears on the final twelve monthly payments on the settlement.

Summary.
 
BlastGard International, Inc. is in the business of providing protection for individuals and property.  We have developed and have been marketing BlastWrap products to protect people and property against explosive forces.  We have recently acquired a 98.2% new subsidiary (HighCom Security, Inc.) that provides a wide range of security and personal protective gear.  A description of each company can be found below and a description of our acquisition can be located under "Item 13" of our Form 10K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. We believe that the products of the two companies have a certain synergy and that BlastGard International is poised to be a full service provider for defensive and protective product needs. The term "the Company" shall include BlastGard and HighCom unless the context indicates otherwise.
 
HighCom provides a wide range of security products and personal protective gear (including tactical armor) that are tailored and offer protection solutions to specific customer requirements.  HighCom caters to local law enforcement agencies, correctional facilities and municipal authorities.  Given the equipment and ballistic protection solutions provided by HighCom, compliance with the U.S. Department of Commerce, U.S. Department of State, U.S. Department of the Treasury and all other governmental agencies' regulations is a high priority. HighCom has sold its products in the defense and law enforcement sectors and is known for innovative technology, exceptional customer service and superior quality performance. We export our products throughout the world and have in the past sold products in Asia, Africa, Europe, Latin America and the Middle East. Many of our products are controlled for export purposes and we require end user details prior to all sales. Strict compliance with U.S. and International laws and regulations is mandatory.
 
As discussed under "Background of HighCom" under "Item 1"of our Form 10K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.  HighCom's sales revenues in 2008 were approximately $17 million. Revenues in 2009 suffered a large decrease largely attributable to a May 2009 fire in its Columbus, OH facility. This destructive fire caused significant disruption to HighCom operations which was forced to relocate to new premises to restart its manufacturing activities.  The combination of decreased spending in law enforcement and homeland security sectors experienced by the industry, the US financial crisis and the destructive effects of the factory fire, revenues decreased to $4 million.  In the second half of 2009, HighCom was able to reestablish its operations in OH and began to regain its market presence both with customers and vendors.  The result of which was the receipt of a $6 million contract award through an open bid process for the supply of hard armor plates and soft armor vests to United Nations Peacekeeping Forces.  This was the first UN contract won by HighCom as a prime contractor.  Shipments under this contract began in late 2009 with the majority of the contract revenues scheduled to be earned in 2010.  Reference is made to “Item 1” – Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of our Form 10K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 for a discussion of material events that effected HighCom in fiscal 2010 and the first quarter of 2011.

 In March 2011, BlastGard’s management team officially assumed operational control of HighCom.  Since this time we have accomplished a number of key compliance tasks and are currently in the process of finalizing manufacturing agreements with several key partners.  As stated in the paragraph above, BlastGard has received official communication from the U.S. State Department that HighCom’s export authority has been reinstated. In addition to this, BlastGard has completed registration through both the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls as well as the Bureau of Industry and Security ("BSI"). The purpose of these registrations is to allow BlastGard control over the export management and compliance program moving forward.  HighCom also completed their ISO certification which had been revoked under HighCom due to missed audits.  BlastGard management has been able to complete an internal audit and management review, in addition to meeting with BSI for the external audit review and in March 2012 HighCom secured ISO certification. Communication with the United Nations is ongoing. On February 6, 2012, the Company was notified by letter that the United Nation’s Vendor Review Committee (“VRC”) had recommended to immediately place on hold the registration status of HighCom Security. This VRC decision to place on hold our registration status was based on integrity/ethical issues surrounding the former CEO’s actions. Soon after this decision was made, we were notified that on February 21, 2012 the government dismissed all the charges against the former CEO. The Company has been in communication with the United Nations Procurement Division regarding this matter and on March 15, 2012, the Company was informed that the VRC had met regarding our request for re-instatement and that its recommendation is currently under consideration. BlastGard has also made significant personnel changes within HighCom and restructuring of operating locations and costs. Since the completion of our acquisition of HighCom, the Company has focused its employee time and capital resources primarily on the development of the business of HighCom. We expect future results of operations to show the benefits of these changes.  The results of operations for HighCom Security have been included on these statement from the date of acquisition, January 25, 2011.
 
Results of Operations
 
Our consolidated net revenues increased substantially as a direct result of our acquisition of HighCom Security in March 2011, which included a change in management. The increase for the quarter ending September 30, 2012 was primarily the result of increased sales of our HighCom Security product line due to a higher demand from our third party customers for certain personal protective equipment products. The sales increase was primarily due to two of our major product categories: ballistic plates and ballistic helmets. Management instituted a number of action steps over the past year to realize this increase in sales, namely: a visible presence at industry tradeshows, cultivation of former customers, aggressive pricing, new in-house production facility, greater cost control over raw materials as well as a new marketing and sales program. We also secured our ISO 2012 certification. The International Organization for Standardization (“ISO”) is the world’s largest developer of voluntary International Standards. International Standards give state of the art specifications for products, services and good practice, helping to make industry more efficient and effective. Developed through global consensus, our ISO certification breaks down the barriers to international trade which is a major focus of our new sales strategy.
 
For the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we recognized sales of $1,802,770 and $170,967 and a gross profit of $589,472 and $32,983, respectively.  Our operating expenses were $295,4583 and $606,024 and our net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2012and 2011 was $(42,478) as compared to $(186,442), respectively. The decrease in net loss is due to an increase in operating income related to the acquisition of HighCom Security, Inc.
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we recognized sales of $2,793,476 and $194,260 and a gross profit of $875,654 and $34,145, respectively.  Our operating expenses were $828,318 and $1,522,377 and our net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $946,785 as compared to a net loss of $(1,976,004) for 2011. The net income for 2012 is due to a gain on a derivative liability, an increase in operating income related to the acquisition of HighCom Security, Inc. and a decrease in operating expenses due to our streamlined operations. The net loss in 2011 is due to the amortization of debt discounts on the new notes issued during the year and an increase in operating expenses related to the acquisition of HighCom Security, Inc.
 
Improved Operations
 
The improvements to operations were primarily the result of increased sales of our HighCom Security product line due to a higher demand from our third party customers for certain personal protective equipment products. The sales increase was primarily due to two of our major product categories: ballistic plates and ballistic helmets. Management instituted a number of action steps over the past year to realize this increase in sales, namely: a visible presence at industry tradeshows, cultivation of former customers, aggressive pricing, new in-house production facility, greater cost control over raw materials as well as a new marketing and sales program. Our gross margins improved for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012 due to lower labor and raw material costs and our operating expenses were reduced due to operating efficiencies and that prior period was abnormally high due to a non-operating expense, namely the acquisition of a business and related consultant fees.

Sales Backlog
 
As of October 15, 2012, the Company had approximately $600,000 of sales orders in production that were expected to ship in November 2012. The Company has hired temporary personnel to complete these orders which will also increase our operating expenses in the fourth quarter.  Management is optimistic that additional sales will occur in the fourth quarter of 2012, although no assurances can be given in this regard.

Manufactured products versus products supplied by third party vendors.

HighCom manufactures ballistic plates, ballistic shields and blankets. Hard armor plates are HighCom manufactured products which either carry our brand name or a private label. Our ballistic vests, ballistic helmets and EOD bomb suits and gear are currently manufactured and private labeled by third party vendors for us. Our soft arm vests are manufactured by one of two major suppliers and they either carry the supplier brand name or the HighCom brand name. Our UN soft armor vest is co-manufactured by us with a third party vendor. Our ballistic packs are also manufactured by one of two manufacturers. We distribute the following products made by other manufacturers: metal detectors, x-ray machines, EOD kits and detection devices, law enforcement gear, uniforms and other clothing, optics and communications.  In the future, we intend to manufacture PASGT (personal armored systems for ground troops) and ACH (advanced combat helmets) ballistic helmets as well as EOD suits.  For a complete description of the HighCom product line, reference is made to our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.
 
At September 30, 2012, we had cash of $185,990, working capital of $(3,040,253), an accumulated deficit of $(16,593,732) and shareholder deficit of $(1,842,027).
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, net cash provided by operating activities is $52,334 primarily due to our net income of $946,785, and a gain on derivative liability, offset by amortization. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we used cash in investing activities for payment of deferred costs and property of $(48,077) and we used cash from financing activities of $(71,488) to repay notes.
 
For the nine months ending September 30, 2011, net cash used in operating activities is $(736,856) primarily due to our net loss of $(1,976,004), partially offset by amortization of debt discount, stock based compensation and an increase in our accounts receivables. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we used cash in investing activities for payment of deferred costs of $(13,759) and we received cash of $750,345 from financing activities.
 
At September 30, 2012, we had cash of $185,990 and we owed approximately $2.4million in principal (without discounts) and approximately $2.1 million in payables and accruals.
 
We anticipate that our future liquidity requirements will arise from the need to finance our accounts receivable and inventories, and from the need to fund our growth from operations, current debt obligations and capital expenditures. The primary sources of funding for such requirements are expected to be cash generated from operations and raising additional capital from the sale of equity and/or debt securities. However, we can provide no assurances that we will be able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations and/or obtain additional financing on terms satisfactory to us, if at all, to remain a going concern. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitability. The Company is attempting to obtain cash to finance its operations through the sale of equity, debt borrowing and/or through the receipt of product licensing fees. We can provide no assurances that financing will be available to us on terms satisfactory to us, if at all, or that we will be able to continue as a going concern. Further, we can provide no assurances that a mutually acceptable licensing agreement will be entered into on terms satisfactory to us, if at all. In this respect, see “Note 1 – Going Concern” in our financial statements for additional information as to the possibility that we may not be able to continue as a “going concern.”
 
To date, we have relied on management’s ability to raise capital through equity private placement financings to fund our operations. We estimate that we will require between $3.0 million and $3.5 million in additional financing and cash flow from operations to support our operations and to meet our debt obligations as they become due and payable over the next 15 months of operations. We can provide no assurances that cash generated from operations will occur or additional financing will be obtained on terms satisfactory to us, if at all, or that additional debt conversions will occur.
 
The Company is seeking financing. Our Agreements with the current Note holder states that in the event of default, change in control, change in a majority of directors and in the most recent Note investment of $500,000 a change in CEO would trigger a mandatory redemption of the Notes at 120% of the balance of the Notes and a buy out of their Warrants based upon a valuation of the Warrants as provided in the Agreement, which could be substantial.

Recent Developments - 2011 Debt
 
Alpha Capital Aktiengesellschaft, a holder of 2004 Debt, loaned us $160,000 in February 2011 and an additional $300,000 in March 2011 pursuant to secured notes convertible at the lesser of the applicable conversion price or eighty percent of the conversion price of any convertible note issued by the Company to anyone prior to or on the one year anniversary of the Issue Date of the Note, subject to adjustment as described therein. The February 2011 notes had a conversion price of $.03 per share and the March 2011 notes had a conversion price of $.05 per share. On June 17, 2011, we entered into an agreement with Alpha to borrow an aggregate principal amount of $300,000 and to issue to the investor a secured convertible note and common stock purchase warrant. The closing occurred on June 17, 2011. The note bears an interest rate of 10% per annum, with a default interest rate of 15% per annum. Alpha also had the right, at their option, to convert the principal amount of the note, together with all accrued interest into fully paid and non-assessable shares of our common stock at a then conversion price per share of (i) $0.03, or (ii) eighty percent of the conversion price of any convertible note issued by the Company to anyone prior to or on the one year anniversary of the Issue Date of the Note. Also in connection with this sale, we issued Alpha a warrant to acquire shares of our common stock. We issued to the investor a “Class A” Common Stock Purchase Warrant which entitles the investor to acquire an aggregate of 12,333,335 shares of our common stock at a then exercise price of $0.06 per share and then exercisable for a period of five years.
 
The documents for the June 2011 Note also reduced the conversion price on the March 2011 Note from $.05 to $.03 per share.
 
Each note bears an interest rate of 10% per annum, with a default interest rate of 15% per annum. Interest shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter commencing March 31, 2011, with a maturity date of August 31, 2011 in the case of the February 2011 issued note and a maturity date of March 3, 2012 in the case of the March 2011 issued note. The individual note holder has the right, at its option, to convert the principal amount of each note, together with all accrued interest thereon in accordance with the provisions of and upon satisfaction of the conditions contained in each note, into fully paid and non-assessable shares of our common stock at a conversion price per share as described above, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances if the notes are then outstanding, such as a stock split, combination or dividend; or in the event we issue shares of common stock for consideration of less than the exercise price. Each note is secured by all of the assets of BlastGard International, Inc, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, BlastGard Technologies, Inc., until the notes have been fully paid or fully converted into common stock. Also in connection with these transactions, we issued the note holder warrants to acquire up to 29.3 million shares of our common stock at prices then ranging from $0.03 per share to $0.08 per share, subject to anti-dilution protection over the life of the warrants.  

On November 8, 2011, the Company agreed to a financing agreement in the amount of $500,000 with an existing shareholder and creditor.  The financing agreement consists of a convertible note and warrants.  The note bears interest at 12% and is convertible at $0.01 per share.  The warrants allow for 75,000,000 shares at $0.01 and expire in seven years. As a result of this financing agreement, all outstanding loans with this lender have had its conversion price lowered to $.01 per share. Also, the exercise price of all outstanding warrants with this lender have been reduced to $.01 per share and the term of the warrants have been extended to seven years from the closing date of this financing. A finder’s fee of 4,000,000 shares was agreed upon by the parties to be issued by the Company. See “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.”

Purchase of HighCom Security Inc.

As previously reported, on January 25, 2011, BlastGard International, Inc. ("BlastGard") entered into a binding Letter of Intent (“LOI”) with HighCom Security, Inc. (“HighCom”) under which BlastGard will acquire 100% of the common stock of HighCom from the stockholders of HighCom, none of whom are affiliates of BlastGard. HighCom is a worldwide security equipment provider based in San Francisco, California. HighCom designs, manufactures and distributes a unique range of security products and personal protective gear. BlastGard and HighCom have agreed to consummate a Stock Purchase Agreement, subject to the approval of all necessary parties, agencies or regulatory organizations. As of the signing of the agreement, BlastGard immediately assumed the operations of HighCom and started to provide financing for the operations while the definitive agreement was drawn up over the next 90 days.

As stated above, the LOI contemplated several closing conditions and the closing in escrow with a possible of rescission if the State Department does not reinstate HighCom’s export license. On March 4, 2011, among other changes the LOI was amended as follows: 1) the LOI constitutes the definitive stock purchase agreement; 2) BlastGard issued 9,820,666 shares of its Common Stock and promissory notes totaling $196,400 to Robert Rimberg as trustee for an Irrevocable Trust FBO and Yochi Cohen and his wife, Yocheved Cohen–Charash (the "Trust") in exchange for 1,150 shares of the outstanding 1,171 shares of HighCom Common Stock, equivalent to 98.2% of the outstanding shares; 3) the parties agree to waive all closing conditions, escrow provisions and right of rescission; and 4) BGI agreed for a period of 30 days to offer to purchase Ron Peled 21 shares of HighCom from him or his transferee at a cost of 179,934 shares of BGI Common Stock and in exchange for promissory notes totaling $3,600, with terms identical to those received by the Trust plus 1.8% of the Earn-out provisions contained in the LOI.

BlastGard also agreed to an earn-out consisting of up to $100,000 in cash and up to 35,000,000 shares of common stock based on a pro-rata basis if revenue reaches certain goals. BlastGard management believes that the revenues goals are very achievable and have valued the contingent consideration at 68% of the market price at the time of the agreement.  As of September 30, 2012, the first earn-out payment amounted to approximately $50,000 that was applied to amounts due from the seller to HighCom.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our short term money market investments. The Company does not have any financial instruments held for trading or other speculative purposes and does not invest in derivative financial instruments, interest rate swaps or other investments that alter interest rate exposure. The Company does not have any credit facilities with variable interest rates.
 
Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
 
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 13a-15(e). In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and the Company's Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level at the end of our most recent quarter. There have been no changes in the Company's disclosure controls and procedures or in other factors that could affect the disclosure controls subsequent to the date the Company completed its evaluation. Therefore, no corrective actions were taken.
