PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

This summary highlights specific information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. Because this is a summary, it may not contain all the information that is important to you. Therefore, you should read carefully the more detailed information set forth in this prospectus and our financial statements before making a decision in our common stock. On November 18, 2005, our shareholders approved a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock with fractional shares being rounded up to the next whole share. All share amounts in this prospectus have been adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.

 

SPEEDEMISSIONS, INC.

 

As of March 31, 2006, we operate 35 vehicle emissions testing and safety inspection centers in three separate markets, greater Atlanta, Georgia; Houston, Texas; and Salt Lake City, Utah, and four mobile units in the Atlanta, Georgia area.

 

We are seeking to become a national provider of vehicles emissions testing and safety inspections. In the past two years, we have acquired competitors in the Atlanta, Georgia; Houston, Texas; and Salt Lake City, Utah areas. We intend to continue opening additional company-owned and operated stores, and we may seek to acquire more competitors and also to begin offering franchises, all in both our current markets and other selected markets, such as Dallas, Texas; Charlotte, North Carolina; Northern Virginia; Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Southern California; Las Vegas, Nevada; New York City; and Boston, Massachusetts. We are seeking to create brand awareness in our current testing stations through standard building style and façade, consistent color schemes, signs, and employee uniforms, and we advertise in select local markets. We anticipate that any future testing stations will also comply with our brand specifications.

Reverse Stock Split

 

On November 18, 2005, our shareholders approved by written consent of a majority vote a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock with fractional shares being rounded up to the next whole share. We executed the amendment to the Articles of Incorporation on December 6, 2005 which went effective January 20, 2006. All share amounts in this prospectus have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

 

Description of Settlement Agreement and Related Transactions

 

On June 30, 2005, we entered into a Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Barron Agreement”) with Barron Partners LP (“Barron”) pursuant to which Barron purchased $6,420,000 worth of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, along with warrants to purchase 2,500,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $2.40 per share for a period of five years, and warrants to purchase 1,890,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $4.80 per share for a period of five years. On August 4, 2005, we entered into an Amendment to Stock Purchase Agreement which modified the Barron Agreement to, among other things, increase the warrants to 2,621,496 shares at $2.40 per share and 1,965,935 shares at $4.80 per share, respectively.

 

On August 23, 2005, GCA Strategic Investment Fund Limited (“GCA”), the holder of all 2,500 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock then issued and outstanding, notified us that as a result of the Barron Agreement and pursuant to Section 9 of the Certificate of Designation of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the conversion ratio of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock was automatically incorporated into the rights of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (referred to herein as the “Dispute”). We resolved this Dispute by entering into a Settlement Agreement with GCA, Barron, and Global Capital Funding Group, LP (“GCFG” and collectively with GCA and Barron referred to herein as the “Investors”) with all parties agreeing to the following terms:

 

                  GCFG converted all amounts due and owing under the Speedemissions, Inc. Secured Promissory Note dated December 30, 2004, in the principal amount of $1,285,000 plus accrued interest of $124,288 into (i) 1,409 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock with rights and preferences outlined in the Amended Certificate of

 

3



 

Designation of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and (ii) a warrant to purchase 2,400,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.20 per share for a period of five years;

 

                  GCA consented to the Amended Certificate of Designation of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, including a new conversion price of $1.20 per share of common stock and no dividend rights, and converted all amounts due and owing, including accrued interest of $160,705, under the $350,000 principal amount promissory note dated January 26, 2005,  the $300,000 principal amount promissory note dated August 2, 2001, and the $110,000 principal amount promissory note dated August 7, 2004 and $302,847 in cumulative dividends due and owing under the existing 2,500 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into (i) 1,224 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, (ii) a warrant to purchase 1,600,000 shares of our common stock with an exercise price of $1.20 per share of common stock for a period of five years, and (iii) an amended warrant agreement dated January 26, 2005 to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock reducing the exercise price from $2.40 to $1.20 per share;

 

                  Barron agreed to the issuance of the GCA Stock, the GCFG Stock, and the GCFG Warrant, and to the Amended Certificate of Designation in exchange for a warrant to purchase 4,000,000 shares of our common stock with an exercise price of $1.20 per share of common stock for a period of five years; and

 

                  Speedemissions, GCFG, GCA, and Barron agreed to release each other of all claims, agreements, contracts, covenants, representations, obligations, losses, liabilities, demands and causes of action which it may now or hereafter have or claim to have against each other, as a result of the Dispute.

 

In connection with the Settlement Agreement, we also amended certain Common Stock Purchase Warrants held by the Investors effective October 14, 2005:

 

                  We executed an Amendment No. 1 to the First Restated Common Stock Purchase Warrant “A” to purchase 2,621,496 shares of common stock held by Barron reducing the exercise price from $2.40 per share to $1.20 per share.

 

                  We executed an Amendment No. 1 to the Common Stock Purchase Warrant “B” to purchase 1,965,935 shares of common stock held by Barron reducing the exercise price from $4.80 per share to $1.20 per share.

 

                  We executed an Amendment No. 1 to the Warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock held by GCA reducing the exercise price from $1.25 per share to $1.20 per share.

 

                  We executed an Amendment No. 1 to the Warrant to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock held by GCA reducing the exercise price from $3.57 per share to $1.20 per share.

 

As part of the Settlement Agreement, we entered into an Exchange Agreement with GCFG dated effective as of October 14, 2005 exchanging the GCFG Stock and the GCFG Warrant for the GCFG Note.

In conjunction with the GCFG Exchange Agreement, we granted to GCFG registration rights with respect to the resale of the shares of common stock underlying the warrants and preferred stock issued to GCFG. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement with GCFG dated October 14, 2005, we agreed to prepare and file a registration statement for the resale of the shares of common stock underlying the GCFG Stock and GCFG Warrant and to use our best efforts to cause the registration statement to be declared effective.

 

As part of the Settlement Agreement, we entered into an Exchange Agreement with GCA dated effective as of October 14, 2005 exchanging the GCA Stock and the GCA Warrant for the following debt and rights held by GCA:  (i) the $300,000 Note; (ii) the $110,000 Note; (iii) the $350,000 Note and (iv) $302,847 in cumulative dividends due and owing under the then existing 2,500 shares of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

In conjunction with the GCA Exchange Agreement, we granted to GCA registration rights with respect to the resale of the shares of common stock underlying the warrants and preferred stock issued to GCA. Pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement with GCA dated October 14, 2005, we agreed to prepare and file a registration statement for the resale of the shares of common stock underlying the GCA Stock and GCA Warrant and to use our best efforts to cause the registration statement to be declared effective.

RISK FACTORS

 

Any investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully the following information, together with the other information contained in this prospectus, before you decide to buy our common stock. If any of the following events actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations would likely suffer. In this case, the market price, if any, of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment in our common stock.

 

Our independent auditors have expressed doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

In their report dated February 24, 2006, our independent auditors stated that our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 were prepared assuming that we would continue as a going concern. However, our independent auditors raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to our recurring losses from operations, operating cash flow deficiencies, and our limited capital resources. Our future success and ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon, among other things, the ability to achieve and maintain satisfactory levels of profitable operations, obtain and maintain adequate levels of debt and equity financing, and provide sufficient cash from operations to meet current and future obligations. We are not generating sufficient cash flow from operations to fund growth as we continue to acquire and open new emission testing and safety inspection stations. If we can successfully complete one or more acquisitions of profitable businesses, then we anticipate an increase in our operating cash flow, but with the increased costs of expanding our operations, we may not achieve positive operating cash flow during 2006. In order to continue implementation of our growth strategy, we will need to raise additional capital through the sale of our equity securities and or through debt financing.

 

We have a limited operating history and limited historical financial information upon which you may evaluate our performance.

 

Our limited operating history and losses to date make it difficult to evaluate our business. You should consider, among other factors, our prospects for success in light of the risks and uncertainties encountered by companies that, like us, are in their early stages of development. Various factors, such as economic conditions, regulatory, and legislative considerations, and competition, may also impede our ability to expand our market presence. We may not successfully address these risks and uncertainties or successfully implement our operating and acquisition strategies. If we fail to do so, it could materially harm our business and impair the value of our common stock. Even if we accomplish these objectives, we may not generate positive cash flows or profits we anticipate in the future.

 

We have a large amount of outstanding common stock held by a single shareholder, and a large amount of common stock that could be acquired by a second shareholder upon conversion of preferred stock and exercise of warrants, which if sold could have a negative impact on our stock price.

 

Our largest shareholder, GCA Strategic Investment Fund Limited, and its affiliates, own 1,519,361 shares of our common stock. Upon exercise of all outstanding warrants at the exercise price of $1.20 per share and conversion of their Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, GCA Strategic Investment Fund Limited, and its affiliates, could own up to 10,056,861 shares of our

 

6



 

common stock. Barron Partners LP could acquire up to 31,487,431 shares of our common stock upon the exercise of outstanding warrants at the exercise price of $1.20 per share and the conversion of their Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. We have filed registration statements for the public resale of 30,923,063 of these shares owned or acquirable by these shareholders and anticipate filing a registration statement for the public resale of the remaining shares. If either of these shareholders sold a large number of shares of our common stock into the public market, or if the public market perceived the sale of those shares into the market, it would have a negative impact on our stock price.

 

There is an extremely limited market for our stock.

 

There is an extremely limited trading market for our common stock. Although our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, there are very few trades of our shares. During 2005, for example, average monthly trading volume of our common stock was 53,385 shares. Currently, there are approximately six market-makers in our common stock. Making a market in securities involves maintaining bid and ask quotations and being able to effect transactions in reasonable quantities at those quoted prices, subject to various securities laws and other regulatory requirements. The development and maintenance of a public trading market depends, however, upon the existence of willing buyers and sellers, the presence of which is not within our control or that of any market maker. Market makers on the OTC Bulletin Board are not required to maintain a continuous two-sided market, are required to honor firm quotations for only a limited number of shares, and are free to withdraw firm quotations at any time. Even with a market maker, factors such as our losses from operations for each of the past three years, the going concern opinion by our auditors, the large number of shares reserved for issuance upon exercise of existing warrants or options or the conversion of outstanding shares of preferred stock, and the small size of our company mean that there can be no assurance of an active and liquid market for our common stock developing in the foreseeable future. Even if a market develops, we cannot assure you that a market will continue, or that shareholders will be able to resell their shares at any price. You should carefully consider the limited liquidity of your investment in our common stock.

 

We may have to pay a substantial amount of liquidated damages to a single shareholder if we fail to maintain certain requirements, and this shareholder claims we already owe these damages.

 

If we fail to maintain a majority of independent directors on our board or a majority of independent directors on both our Audit Committee and Compensation Committee, then we must pay to Barron an amount equal to 24% of the purchase price of $6,615,000 for the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and common stock warrants per annum, payable monthly. For every month the majority of our board or any of our committees is not independent, we must pay Barron liquidated damages in the amount of $132,300. Currently we have a majority of independent directors on our board.

 

If we fail to maintain the effectiveness of a resale registration statement for the shares held by Barron, then we must pay to Barron in the form of shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock an amount equal to 24% of the purchase price of $6,615,000 paid by Barron for the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and common stock warrants per annum for each day the resale registration is not effective. For example, if we fail to maintain the effectiveness of the resale registration statement for a period of 30 days, we must issue to Barron approximately 49,315 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock which would convert to approximately 372,822 shares of our common stock. We filed a resale registration statement for the shares held

by Barron on August 24, 2005, which was declared effective by the SEC on October 13, 2005. Following execution of our Settlement Agreement with Barron and GCA on November 14, 2005, this registration statement ceased to be up-to-date. We have filed a post-effective amendment to update the registration statement for these events and to include our 2005 financial statements. The shares covered by this prospectus will be offered pursuant to this registration statement once the post-effective amendment is declared effective. Because we had prepared a proposed amendment to the registration statement at Barron’s request to describe Barron’s proposed plan of distribution of its shares and which would have also disclosed the Settlement Agreement, we believe any delay in updating the registration statement to describe current events has been authorized by Barron. Consequently, we believe we are not in violation of this liquidated damages provision and have asked Barron to agree in writing with our position. Barron has informed us that it disagrees with our position and therefore there is a risk that we may owe Barron additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

 

We are obligated to redeem a series of our preferred stock upon a change of control.

 

If a person or group of persons other than GCA Strategic Investment Fund acquires beneficial ownership of 33 1/3% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock without the prior written consent of GCA Strategic Investment Fund, we could be required to redeem the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at the greater of (i) the original issue price of $1,000 per share or (ii) the number of shares of common stock into which the redeemed shares may be converted multiplied by the market price of the common stock at the time of the change in control. Based on the 5,133 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock currently outstanding, if this redemption were triggered we would be required to pay the holders of these shares an aggregate of at least $5,133,000. This restriction will likely deter any proposed acquisition of us and may make it more difficult for us to attract new investors, as any mandatory redemption of the preferred shares will materially adversely affect our ability to remain in business and significantly impair the value of your common stock.

 

A change of control could occur if one shareholder exercises all of its common stock purchase warrants.

 

Barron may acquire 18,760,000 shares of common stock upon conversion of 2,481,481 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. However, Barron is restricted from converting any portion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock which would cause Barron to beneficially own in excess of 4.9% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. In addition, Barron may acquire 12,587,431 shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants at $1.20 per share. However, Barron is restricted from exercising any portion of the common stock warrants which would cause Barron to beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock unless Barron revokes this restriction upon 61 days prior notice from Barron to Speedemissions. If Barron revokes this restriction and exercises all the outstanding warrants it holds, it could control approximately 82% of outstanding shares of common stock based on number of outstanding shares as of March 8, 2006.

The exercise price of certain outstanding warrants will be adjusted if we do not meet certain earnings per share goals, and as a result we could lose a substantial amount of future capital.

 

The exercise price of certain warrants to purchase approximately 8,587,431 shares of common stock may be reduced from the current price of $1.20 if we earn less than $0.054 per share on a fully diluted basis for the year ending December 31, 2006. The exercise price would be reduced proportionately by 0% if earnings are $0.054 per share and by 40% if the earnings are $0.033 or less per share. For example, if we earn $0.043 per share, or 20% below $0.054 per share, then the warrant exercise price will be reduced by 20%. If we fail to meet these earnings per share goal, we might lose a substantial amount of future capital and other shareholders would face additional dilution. Although we did not meet the earnings per share projections for 2005, the warrant holder, Barron, agreed to waive the warrant price adjustment for 2005.

 

We depend upon government laws and regulations that may be changed in ways that may impede our business.

 

Our business depends upon government legislation and regulations mandating air pollution controls. At this point, Georgia, Texas and Utah laws are especially important to us because all of our existing emissions testing services are conducted in those states. Changes in federal or state laws that govern or apply to our operations could have a material adverse effect on our business. Federal vehicle emissions testing law may evolve due to technological advances in the automobile industry creating cleaner, more efficient automobiles which could affect current testing policy and procedure in our markets. For example, Georgia law could be changed so as to require that vehicles in the state be tested every other year, as opposed to every year. Such a change would reduce the number of vehicles that need to be tested in any given year and such a reduction would have a material adverse effect on our revenues in Georgia. Other changes that would adversely affect us would be a reduction in the price we can charge customers for our testing service, an increase in the fees we must pay to the state in order to operate emissions testing stations in its jurisdiction, and the adoption of a system whereby the state, as opposed to private operators, performs vehicle emissions testing. We cannot be assured that changes in federal or state law would not have a materially adverse effect on the vehicle emissions testing industry generally or, specifically, on our business.

 

We may be unable to effectively manage our growth and operations.

 

If we continue to raise sufficient capital to support our growth strategy of both opening and acquiring stations, we anticipate rapid growth and development in a relatively short period of time. The management of this expansion will require, among other things, continued development of our financial and management controls and management information systems, stringent control of costs, increased marketing activities, the ability to attract and retain qualified management personnel, and the training of new personnel. We intend to hire additional personnel in order to effectively manage our expected growth and expansion. Failure to successfully manage our expected growth and development and difficulties in managing additional emissions testing stations could have a material adverse effect on our business and the value of our common stock.

 

Our strategy of acquiring and opening more testing stations may not produce positive financial results for us.

 

Our strategy of acquiring and opening more emissions testing stations in the greater Atlanta, Houston, and Salt Lake City areas and in other areas is subject to a variety of risks, including the:

 

                                          Inability to find suitable acquisition candidates;

 

9



 

                                          Failure or unanticipated delays in completing acquisitions due to difficulties in obtaining regulatory approvals or consents;

                                          Difficulty in integrating the operations, systems and management of our acquired stations and absorbing the increased demands on our administrative, operational and financial resources;

                                          Loss of key employees;

                                          Reduction in the number of suitable acquisition targets resulting from continued industry consolidation;

                                          Inability to negotiate definitive purchase agreements on satisfactory terms and conditions;

                                          Increases in the prices of sites and testing equipment due to increased competition for acquisition opportunities or other factors; and

                                          Inability to sell any non-performing stations or to sell used equipment.

 

Our failure to successfully address these risks could have a material adverse effect on our business and impair the value of our common stock.

 

Because the emissions testing industry is highly competitive, we may lose customers and revenues to our competitors.

 

Our testing stations face competition from other emission station operators that are located near our sites. We expect such competition whenever and wherever we open or acquire a station. Our revenue from emissions testing is affected primarily by the number of vehicles our stations service, and the price charged per test. Other emissions testing operators may have greater financial resources than us, which may allow them to obtain more expensive and advantageous locations for testing stations, to provide services in addition to emissions testing, to charge lower prices than we do, and to advertise and promote their businesses more effectively than we do. For example, some of our competitors in Atlanta charge only $20.00 to test a vehicle rather than the $25.00 maximum allowed under Georgia law. As a result, we have had to reduce our fees to $20.00 in some of our Atlanta stations. Although we believe our stations are well positioned to compete, we cannot assure you that our stations will maintain, or will increase, their current testing volumes and revenues. A decrease in testing volume as the result of competition or other factors could materially impair our profitability and our cash flows, thereby adversely affecting our business and the value of our common stock.

 

The loss of Richard A. Parlontieri, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and the inability to hire or retain other key personnel, would adversely affect our ability to manage and control our business.

 

Our business now depends primarily upon the efforts of Mr. Richard A. Parlontieri, who currently serves as our President and Chief Executive Officer. We believe that the loss of Mr. Parlontieri’s services would have a materially adverse effect on us. In this regard, we note that we have entered into a three-year employment agreement with Mr. Parlontieri. We do not maintain key-man life insurance on Mr. Parlontieri.

 

As our business grows and expands, we will need the services of other persons to fill key positions in our company. As an early growth-stage company with limited financial resources, however, we may not be able to attract, or retain, competent, qualified and experienced individuals to direct and manage our business. The absence of skilled persons within our company will have a materially adverse effect on us and the value of our common stock.

Our largest shareholder controls our company, allowing it to direct the company in ways that may be contrary to the wishes of other shareholders.

 

Our largest shareholder, GCA Strategic Investment Fund Limited, and its affiliate, own approximately 53% of our outstanding shares and control approximately 78% of our outstanding voting securities. They have the ability to control the direction of our company, which may be contrary to the wishes of other shareholders or new investors.

 

There are a large number of outstanding warrants, options and preferred stock which if exercised or converted will result in substantial dilution of the common stock.

 

As of March 8, 2006, there are 2,873,598 shares of common stock outstanding. However, if all outstanding warrants and options are exercised and all outstanding preferred stock is converted to common stock, there would be 43,419,203 shares of common stock outstanding. As a result, a shareholder’s proportionate interest in us would be substantially diluted.

 

Our stock price may fluctuate which could result in substantial losses for investors.

 

The market price for our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control. These factors include:

 

                  Quarterly variations in operating results;

                  Any significant sale of stock or exercise of warrants by any of our existing shareholders;

                  Announcements by us or our competitors of new products, significant contracts, acquisitions or strategic relationships;

                  Publicity about our company, management, products or our competitors;

                  Additions or departures of key personnel;

                  Any future sales of our common stock or other securities; and

                  Stock market price and volume fluctuations of publicly traded companies.

 

These and other external factors have caused and may continue to cause the market price and demand for our common stock to fluctuate substantially, which may limit or prevent investors from readily selling their shares of common stock and may otherwise negatively affect the liquidity of our common stock.

 

Because we are subject to the “penny stock” rules, the level of trading activity in our stock may be reduced.

 

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board. Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks” are regulated by penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Penny stocks, like shares of our common stock, generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on Nasdaq. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction. In addition, if the broker-dealer is the

 

11



 

sole market maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market, as well as monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, broker-dealers who sell these securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” 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. Consequently, these requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security subject to the penny stock rules, and investors in our common stock may find it difficult to sell their shares.

 

SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

We have made forward-looking statements in this prospectus, including in the sections entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Business,” that are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. Forward-looking statements include the information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations, business strategies, financing plans, competitive position, industry environment, potential growth opportunities, the effects of future regulation and the effects of competition. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” and “estimate,” as well as similar expressions. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including the risks outlined under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus.

 

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, events, levels of activity, performance or achievement. We are not under any duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this prospectus to conform these statements to actual results, unless required by law.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale by the selling shareholders of the common stock offered in this prospectus. We would, however, receive proceeds of the sale of common stock pursuant to the exercise of warrants held by Barron Partners LP and the other warrant holders. Any proceeds we may receive from the exercise of the outstanding warrants would be used to finance acquisitions of emissions testing stations. We may use a portion of any  proceeds we receive for working capital, if necessary.

 

Our allocation of proceeds represents our best estimate based upon the expected exercise of warrants and the requirements of our proposed business and marketing plan. If any of these factors change, we may reallocate some of the net proceeds.

 

SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS

 

The selling shareholder offering the majority of the shares pursuant to this prospectus is Barron Partners LP. The common stock to be offered by Barron will be acquired upon conversion of the shares of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock or the exercise of Barron’s common stock purchase warrants. In connection with the issuance of the Series B Convertible

 

12



 

Preferred Stock and the common stock purchase warrants, Barron was granted registration rights for the shares of our common stock underlying the preferred stock and warrants.

 

Barron currently owns 2,481,481 shares of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, which represents 100% of our issued and outstanding shares of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. On February 23, 2006, Barron converted 18,519 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock into 140,000 shares of common stock. Additionally, Barron holds warrants to purchase 12,587,431 shares of our common stock at $1.20 per share. Although only 8,587,431 shares underlying the warrants are registered pursuant to this prospectus, we anticipate filing a registration statement to register the sale of the rest of the shares issuable upon exercise of Barron’s warrants. Pursuant to the terms of the warrants and the Certificate of Designation governing the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, Barron is restricted from converting the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock or the warrants if such conversion would result in Barron beneficially owing more than 4.9% of our outstanding common stock. However, the common stock purchase warrants provide that Barron may revoke this 4.9% ownership restriction upon 61 days prior notice to us.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

This prospectus covers up to 27,927,262 shares of our common stock, including (i) 224,829 shares of common stock outstanding, (ii) 18,760,000 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, and (iii) 8,942,433 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants outstanding. We will not receive any of the proceeds of the sale of the common stock offered by this prospectus. However, we would receive the proceeds from any exercise of the warrants.

 

The common stock may be sold from time to time to purchasers either (i) directly by the selling shareholders; or (ii) through broker-dealers or agents who may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions, or commissions from the selling shareholders or the purchasers of the common stock. The selling shareholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to timing, manner, and size of each sale.

 

The selling shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents who participate in the distribution of the common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, or the “Securities Act.” As a result, any profits on the sale of the common stock by the selling shareholders and any discounts, commissions, or concessions received by any such broker-dealers or agents may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. If any of the selling shareholders were deemed to be an underwriter, the selling shareholder may be subject to statutory liabilities including, but not limited to, those of Sections 11, 12, and 17 of the Securities Act and Rule 10b-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

 

Barron is under no obligation to convert its Series B Convertible Preferred Stock or common stock purchase warrants into shares of our common stock.

 

If the underlying common stock is sold through broker-dealers or agents, the selling shareholder will be responsible for broker-dealers’ and agents’ commissions. Shares of the common stock may be sold at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated or fixed prices, in each case as determined by the selling shareholders or by agreement between the selling shareholders and underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents, or purchasers.

 

These sales may be effected through transactions (i) on the over-the-counter market or on any other market in which the price of our shares of common stock are quoted; or (ii) in transactions otherwise than in the over-the-counter market or in any other market on which the price of our shares of common stock are quoted. These transactions may include block transactions or crosses. Crosses are transactions in which the same broker acts as an agent on both sides of the transaction.

 

To our knowledge, there are currently no plans, arrangements, or understandings between the selling shareholders and any underwriter, broker-dealer, or agent regarding the sale of the shares of common stock by the selling shareholders. The selling shareholders may decide not to sell all or a portion of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus. Upon us being notified in writing by a selling shareholder that any material arrangement, plan, or understanding has been entered into with a broker-dealer, underwriter, or agent for the sale of common stock, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, disclosing (i) the name of such selling shareholder, (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such shares of common stock were sold, (iv) the

 

15



 

commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such underwriter, broker-dealer, or agent, where applicable, (v) that such underwriter, broker-dealer, or agent did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction.

 

We will pay all expenses in connection with the registration and sale of the common stock by the selling shareholders. The estimated expenses of issuance and distribution are set forth below:

Under the securities laws of certain states, the shares of common stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. The selling shareholders are advised to ensure that any underwriters, brokers, dealers, or agents effecting transactions on behalf of the selling shareholders are registered to sell securities in all fifty states. In addition, in certain states the shares of common stock may not be sold by a selling shareholder unless the sale of the shares has been registered or qualified in such state or we have taken steps to comply with an applicable exemption from registration or qualification. Even though we have registered the sale of the shares covered by this prospectus by the selling shareholders under the federal securities laws, we have not registered, or taken any action to qualify for an exemption from registration for, the sale by the selling shareholders under any state securities laws.  We are sending each selling shareholder a letter concerning state securities laws relevant to this prospectus.  The selling shareholders and any brokers, dealers, or agents that participate in the distribution of common stock may be considered underwriters, and any profit on the sale of common stock by them and any discounts, concessions, or commissions received by those underwriters, brokers, dealers, or agents may be considered underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act of 1933.

 

                                                The selling shareholder and any other persons participating in the distribution of the common stock will be subject to the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. The Exchange Act rules include, without limitation, Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the common stock by the selling shareholder and any such other person. In addition, Regulation M of the Exchange Act may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the common stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the common stock being distributed for a period of up to five business days prior to the commencement of such distribution. This may affect the marketability of the common stock and the ability to engage in market-making activities with respect to the common stock.

 

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

In April 2005, a lawsuit was filed against us by Weingarten Realty Investors in the U.S. District Court of Harris County, Texas, case number 2005-25671. The complaint alleged breach of contract arising out of a real property lease in Texas for two testing sites that were to be built. We met with executives of Weingarten Realty Investors and settled this matter. Weingarten dismissed the suit on January 20, 2006 without prejudice.

We are not a party to or otherwise involved in any legal proceedings.

 

In the ordinary course of business, we may be from time to time involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. The litigation process is inherently uncertain and it is possible that the resolution of such matters might have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition and/or results of operations.

Common Stock  – Fully Diluted Basis

 

The previous table describes the beneficial ownership of our common stock held by our directors, our executive officers, and the holders of more than 5% of our common stock. Under the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules, Barron is deemed to beneficially own only 4.9% of our common stock and, therefore, was not included in the preceding table. Because the total number of shares which Barron has the right to acquire is significant, we are also providing the following table which shows the beneficially ownership of holders of more than 5% of our common stock on a fully diluted basis without regard to time limitations on the exercise of warrants.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

 

Our authorized capital stock consists of 250,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001. As of March 8, 2006, there are 2,873,598 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding and held by 102 shareholders.

 

On November 18, 2005, our shareholders approved a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock with fractional shares being rounded up to the next whole share. All share amounts in this prospectus have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

 

Common Stock. Each shareholder of our common stock is entitled to a pro rata share of cash distributions made to shareholders, including dividend payments. The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of our directors or any other matter. Therefore, the holders of more than 50% of the shares voted for the election of those directors can elect all of the directors. The holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends when and if declared by our Board of Directors from funds legally available. Cash dividends are at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, the holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment of our liabilities and after provision has been made for each class of stock, if any, having any preference in relation to our common stock. Holders of shares of our common stock have no conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no redemption provisions applicable to our common stock.

 

Preferred Stock. We are authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001. As of March 8, 2006, there are 5,133 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding and held by two shareholders. As of March 8, 2006, there are 2,481,481 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding and held of record by one shareholder.

 

In January 2004, we designated 3,500 shares as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. In October 2005, we increased the designation of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to 6,000 shares. There are 5,133 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 833.33 shares of our common stock. Upon certain changes in control, we could be required to redeem the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at the greater of (i) the original issue price of $1,000 per share or (ii) the number of shares of common stock which the redeemed shares may converted multiplied by the market price of the common stock. On October 14, 2005, the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock consented to the termination of dividend accruals on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is entitled to the number of votes to which the holders would be entitled if they converted their shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

In June 2005, we designated 3,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. In June 2005, we issued 2,500,000 shares to one shareholder. Each share is convertible into 7.56 shares of our common stock, or 18,900,000 shares of common stock in the aggregate. On February 23, 2006, the shareholder converted 18,518 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock into 140,000 shares of our common stock. There are 2,481,481 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock does not pay a dividend or have voting rights.

The availability or issuance of preferred shares in the future could delay, defer, discourage, or prevent a change in control.

 

Dividend Policy. We have never declared or paid a cash dividend on our common stock and we do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain our earnings, if any, for use in our business. Any dividends declared on our common stock in the future will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors.

 

We previously were obligated to pay cumulative dividends at an annual rate of 7% on the outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. At our option, we could have paid these dividends in cash or in additional shares of our common stock. On October 14, 2005, the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock consented to the termination of dividend accruals on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Pursuant to the GCA Exchange Agreement, GCA exchanged the $302,847 in cumulative dividends due and owing under 2,500 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock through October 14, 2005 for additional shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and common stock purchase warrants.

 

Our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock does not pay a dividend.

 

Transfer Agent. The transfer agent for our common stock is Interwest Transfer Co., Inc., 1981 East 4800 South, Suite 100, Salt Lake City, Utah 84117, telephone number (801) 272-9294 and fax number (801) 277-3147.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Introduction

 

We were incorporated as SKTF Enterprises, Inc. in Florida in March 2001 for the original purpose of marketing and distributing branded and licensed hats and clothing at major events such as sporting events, concerts, and conventions. In June 2003, we abandoned that business plan and acquired Speedemissions, Inc., a Georgia corporation in the business of vehicle emissions testing since May 2000. In connection with the acquisition, we changed our name to Speedemissions, Inc. in September 2003.

 

Our Principal Services and Markets

 

As of March 31, 2006, we operate 35 vehicle emissions testing and safety inspection centers in three separate markets, greater Atlanta, Georgia; Houston, Texas; and Salt Lake City, Utah, and four mobile units in the Atlanta, Georgia area.

 

Expansion of Business

 

We are becoming a national provider of vehicles emissions testing and safety inspections. In the past two years, we have acquired competitors in the Atlanta, Georgia; Houston, Texas, and Salt Lake City, Utah areas. We intend to continue opening company-owned and operated stores, to acquire more competitors, and to begin offering franchises, all in both our current markets and other selected markets, such as Dallas, Texas; Charlotte, North Carolina; Northern Virginia; Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Southern California; Las Vegas, Nevada; New York City; and Boston, Massachusetts. We are creating brand awareness in our current testing stations through standard building style and façade, consistent color schemes, signs, and employee uniforms, and we advertise in select local markets. Any future testing stations will also comply with our brand specifications.

Our Typical Testing Center

 

The typical testing center is located inside of a structure similar to a typical lube or tire change garage with doors at both ends so vehicles can “drive-through” the facility. We also have structures that resemble a bank drive-through facility. A computerized testing system is located in the building. There are two types of primary tests that are performed, the Accelerated Simulated Model (ASM) and the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD). In selected markets a vehicle safety inspection must also be performed. These tests apply to vehicles generally manufactured from 1982 through 2003, depending on the state. The ASM test is done on vehicles 1995 and older, while the OBD test is conducted on vehicles 1996 and newer. In all new centers, we expect to operate two testing lanes. The cost of equipment for operating one ASM and two OBD machines is approximately $50,000. The cost of facilities varies, depending on location and market rates in that area. Generally, we do not expect to own any land or buildings. Instead, although we own the land and building at one of our sites, in the future we intend to lease or sublease all of the land and the buildings that we use in our business. We expect the total cost for a new emissions testing site will be approximately $150,000, including emission testing equipment and related installation, deposits and prepaid items such as certificates, furniture and office equipment, renovations if necessary, signage, and capital necessary to fund operations during the first year. Such amount does not include future years’ costs, such as rent and utilities or other operating costs.

 

In our Atlanta, Georgia and Houston, Texas locations, under the guidelines of the Georgia Clean Air Force program and Texas Vehicle Emissions Testing Program, respectively, the mobile vehicle emission testing units are only permitted to conduct the OBD test on 1996 and newer vehicles. In the Atlanta, Georgia area, we currently have four units and they serve the automobile fleets of the federal, state, and local governments. Also, all used cars, prior to being re-sold, must have a vehicle emission test, and thus we serve both the new and used car dealers throughout the greater Atlanta market. Finally, these units serve the fleets of major corporate customers as well. The start-up cost for the mobile testing unit is about 60% less than the cost of a typical brick-and-mortar location.

 

Industry Background – Government and Regulatory Overview

 

The United States Environmental Protection Agency reported in 2003 that approximately 123 million people live in 333 counties across the United States that do not meet national air quality standards. The 2005 Motor Vehicle I/M Report, an Annual Report published by Sierra Research, states that 33 states and the District of Columbia currently have vehicle emissions testing programs. Each state as well as the District of Columbia has its own regulatory structure for emissions testing with which we must comply.

 

Public awareness of air pollution and its hazardous effects on human health and the environment has increased in recent years. Increased awareness of air pollution and its hazardous effects on human health and the environment has led many governmental authorities to pass more stringent pollution control measures. One especially effective measure that many governmental authorities have adopted is vehicle emissions testing. Vehicle emissions produce approximately up to 50% of the hazardous air pollutants and up to 90% of the carbon monoxide air pollution in metropolitan areas. The EPA estimates that enhanced emissions testing on motor vehicles is approximately 10 times more cost-effective in reducing air pollution than increasing controls on stationary pollution sources such as factories and utilities. Consequently, the EPA has made

 

27



 

emissions testing an integral part of its overall effort to reduce air pollution by ensuring that vehicles meet emissions standards.

 

Vehicle emissions control requirements have become progressively more stringent since the passage of the Clean Air Act in 1970. In 1990, Congress amended the Clean Air Act. The revisions required areas that did not meet national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) to implement either basic or “enhanced” vehicle I/M emissions testing programs, depending upon the severity of the area’s air quality problem. The act also required that metro areas with populations of more than 100,000 implement enhanced I/M emissions testing regardless of their air quality designation.

 

On November 5, 1992, EPA issued its original rule establishing minimum performance and administrative requirements for states developing air quality implementation plans. The EPA said areas that needed enhanced emissions testing would have to use their new “I/M 240” test procedure. However, the EPA decided to grant state governmental authorities the discretion to determine how best to establish and operate a network of emissions testing facilities, including the flexibility to choose either a centralized or a decentralized program.

 

In general, these vehicle emissions tests are performed either in a centralized program or in a decentralized program. In a centralized program, a select number of emissions testing operators are licensed by the state or are operated by certain states to perform vehicle emissions testing. These operators are authorized to perform emissions tests, but generally they are prohibited from repairing vehicles that fail to pass an emissions test.

 

On the other hand, in a decentralized program, a wider range of persons may perform emissions tests, including those engaged primarily in other businesses, such as automotive repair shops, automobile dealers and others. For many of these operators, performing emissions tests is not their primary business.

 

Twenty states have implemented decentralized programs, twelve states and the District of Columbia have implemented centralized programs, and two states have some counties that have centralized programs and other counties that have decentralized programs. There are two states that have implemented a hybrid program, whereby there are both decentralized and centralized testing stations.

 

On July 31, 1998, the EPA issued a final study that concluded that more stringent air quality standards for motor vehicle emissions are needed, and that such standards should be implemented as it becomes technologically feasible and cost-effective to do so. We believe that the setting of such standards will be the most important EPA regulatory initiative affecting motor vehicles since the passage of the 1990 Amendments. We believe that the EPA study is likely to result in more stringent standards that will have the effect of increasing the number of areas that must implement emissions testing programs and thereby potentially increasing the market for our service. On February 28, 2006, the EPA proposed new standards that would establish stringent new controls on gasoline, passenger vehicles to further reduce emissions of mobile source air toxics.

 

Since 1977, when federal legislation first required states to comply with emissions standards through the use of testing programs, California has been a leader in testing procedures and technical standards. California has approximately 23 million vehicles subject to emissions testing, more than two times that of any other state. California’s testing program is overseen by

 

28



 

the California Bureau of Automotive Repair (CARB). CARB has revised its emissions testing standards three times: in 1984, 1990 and, most recently, in 1997. With each of these revisions, the Bureau has required the use of new, more sophisticated and more accurate emissions testing and analysis equipment, which must be certified by CARB. California’s testing standards have become the benchmark for emissions testing in the United States.

 

All states with decentralized programs and many states with centralized programs require emissions testing and analysis equipment used in their programs to be either BAR-84, BAR-90, or BAR-97 certified, with all newly implemented enhanced programs requiring BAR-97 certification.

 

As emissions testing equipment has become more technologically advanced, government regulators have required that testing facilities use this more advanced equipment. The most significant technological advance that has occurred in the emissions testing industry over the past decade is the development of enhanced testing systems. Prior to 1990, the EPA required government agencies to test vehicles only for emissions of carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons, which form smog. During this “basic” test, a technician inserts a probe in the vehicle’s tailpipe while the vehicle is idling and emissions analyzers then measure pollution levels in the exhaust. These basic tests worked well for pre-1981, non-computerized vehicles containing carburetors because typical emission control problems involved incorrect air/fuel mixtures and such problems increase pollution levels in the exhaust even when the vehicle is idling.

 

However, today’s vehicles have different emissions problems. For tests on modern vehicles to be effective, the equipment must measure nitrogen oxide emissions that also cause smog and must test the vehicle under simulated driving conditions. The EPA now requires these enhanced tests in the major metropolitan areas of the 33 states and the District of Columbia. A technician conducts these Accelerated Simulated Mode (ASM) tests on a dynamometer, a treadmill-type device that simulates actual driving conditions, including periods of acceleration, deceleration and cruising, or the On Board Diagnostic (OBD) by plugging into the vehicles computerized operation system.

 

Emissions Testing in the State of Georgia

 

As a result of a rapidly increasing population, which has caused the levels of smog to escalate sharply, the 13 counties that make up the metro Atlanta area have been identified by the EPA as target sites for a mandatory vehicle inspection and maintenance program. In 1996, the Environmental Protection Division of the State of Georgia initiated “Georgia’s Clean Air Force” program that requires testing of certain vehicles in a 13 county area surrounding Atlanta, Georgia, for certain emission levels. These rules are set forth in Sections 391-3-20-.01 through .22 of the Rules of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Environmental Protection Division.

 

Georgia’s program is a decentralized program. All operators performing emissions testing in Georgia must have their technicians attend and complete certain state certified training, and report to the state on their emissions testing activities every month. Testing stations may be licensed to test all vehicles, which are known as ALL VEHICLES WELCOME stations, or only vehicles not more than ten years old, known as 1996 OR NEWER VEHICLES ONLY stations. All the stations we currently operate in Georgia, are “ALL VEHICLES WELCOME” stations.

 

Georgia’s Clean Air Force Program initially required a basic test of exhaust gases every two years. In 1997, the program was changed to include enhanced testing, which combines the simple exhaust test with a simulated road test using a dynamometer. Prior to January 1, 2000,

 

29



 

Georgia required that vehicles in the 13 covered counties undergo an emissions test once every two years. In December 1999, the Georgia legislature revised the program to require testing on an annual basis, with an annual exemption for the three most recent model years.

 

The market for emissions testing in Georgia is highly fragmented and generally consists of services provided by independent auto repair service providers, service stations, oil and tire repair stores, and independent test-only facilities. According to the State of Georgia, there were approximately 700 licensed test sites, and approximately 2,137,000 tests were performed in Georgia under the Georgia Clean Air Force Program during the calendar year 2004.

 

Under Georgia law, the price that a testing station may charge per test may not be less than $10 nor more than $25. A fee of $6.95 must be paid by the station operator to the state. The balance of the current charge, or $18.05 assuming the maximum price of $25 is charged, is retained by the station operator. If a vehicle fails an emissions test, it may be retested at no additional charge within 30 days of the initial test if performed at the same facility.

 

If a vehicle fails to pass an emissions test, the owner of the vehicle must have repair work performed to correct the deficiency, up to a total cost of $710 under current law. If a vehicle fails a re-inspection despite the maximum expenditure required by law, the owner must apply for a repair waiver from the state.

 

Georgia law mandates compliance with its vehicle emissions testing program. For vehicles subject to the state’s emissions law, a successful test, or a waiver from the state, is required to obtain a vehicle registration in Georgia.

 

Emissions Testing in the State of Texas

 

The Texas Vehicle Emissions Testing Program, also known as AirCheck Texas, was implemented in May 2002 in affected areas of Texas to improve air quality. As of September 2005, 12 counties are now subject to enhanced vehicle emissions testing. The rules are set forth in § 114.50 of the Texas Administrative Code.

 

The testing program is integrated with the annual safety inspection program, both of which are operated by the Texas Department of Public Safety in conjunction with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. Vehicles two to twenty-four years old are subject to vehicle emissions testing in Texas. The emissions tests conducted are the same as in Georgia with 1996 and newer models subject to the OBD test and 1995 and older models subject to the ASM test. The fee is set at a maximum of $39.50 for both the emissions test and the safety inspection, with $27.00 allocated for an ASM or an OSD emissions test and $12.50 allocated for the safety inspection. The operator is charged $8.00 for the ASM sticker, and $14.00 for the OBD sticker. Vehicles are required to be tested on an annual basis, with an annual exemption for the two most recent model years. According to the American Automobile Motor Vehicle Association, there are 4.6 million eligible vehicles in the state.

 

If a vehicle fails the emissions test, the operator must provide a free retest at the same facility within 15 days. An individual vehicle waiver is available to any vehicle that has undergone at least $600 of emissions-related repairs and is still unable to pass an emissions test.

 

Texas law mandates compliance with its vehicle emissions and safety inspection program. For a vehicle to obtain a sticker for yearly registration the owner must have a successful emissions and safety inspection, or a waiver.

 

30



 

Emissions Testing in the State of Utah

 

The state of Utah allows a hybrid of the centralized and decentralized programs where the state operates a select number of emissions testing and safety inspection centers while authorizing those businesses such as an automotive repair shop, automobile dealers and other to conduct emissions testing and safety inspections. The Department of Health for each county manages emission testing and the Utah Highway Patrol manages safety inspection program. The emissions tests conducted are the same as in Georgia and Texas. We charge $38.00 for the emissions test in Salt Lake County and $25 in Weber County where the maximum fee is $25. Depending on the location of the testing center, a fee of $3.60 is remitted to Salt Lake County and $3.00 to Weber County. We charge $17 for the safety inspections in both counties and a fee of $2.00 is remitted to the Utah Highway Patrol per safety inspection.

 

All vehicles registered in Davis, Salt Lake, Utah and Weber counties with model years less than six years old are required to have an emission test once every two years. Vehicles with model years six years old and older (to 1967) must have an emission test every year. Emission testing is not required for vehicles with model years 1967 or older. Vehicles with model years less than eight years old are required to have a safety inspection once every two years. Vehicles with model years eight years old and older must pass safety inspections every year. If a vehicle fails, the operator must provide a free re-test at the same facility within 15 days.

 

Utah law mandates compliance with its vehicle emissions and safety inspection program. For a vehicle to obtain a sticker for yearly registration the owner must have a successful emissions and/or safety inspection.

 

Operating Strategy

 

Our operating strategy focuses on (a) increasing the number of sites we operate in a given market, (b) increasing the volume of business at each site, (c) creating brand awareness for our services, and (d) creating repeat customer sales, all of which are designed to enhance our revenue and cash flow. To achieve these goals, we:

 

                                          Seek to secure and maintain multiple stations at well-traveled intersections and other locations that are easily reachable by our customers;

                                          Coordinate operations, training and a local outreach program in each market to enhance revenue and maximize cost efficiencies within each market;

                                          Implement regional management and marketing initiatives in each of our markets;

                                          Seek to acquire existing testing sites where significant volume potential exists;

                                          Tailor each facility, utilize limited local advertising and the services we offer to appeal to the broadest range of consumers; and

                                          Seek to expand the use of our mobile vehicle testing units by adding a sales manager to call on federal, state, and local governments for their fleets, as well as corporate accounts and car dealers.

 

Most of our emissions testing stations are open for business during weekdays between the hours of 8:00 am and 6:00 pm, and from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm on Saturdays, for a total of 58.5 hours per week. We operate some stations on Sundays in Texas. The average emissions test in

 

31



 

Georgia takes approximately 8 to 12 minutes to complete. In Texas and Utah, because of the safety inspection, the completion time is slightly longer. Therefore, each of our stations with one testing bay can test anywhere from three to four vehicles per hour. Assuming steady demand throughout the day, six days a week, each of our one testing bay stations would have the capacity to test approximately 234 vehicles per week (58.5 hours times 4 vehicles per hour), or 936 vehicles per month (234 vehicles per week times 4 weeks). Based upon our calculations involving our existing emissions stations, stations with one testing bay need to receive payment for 450 emissions tests per month to cover the costs associated with its operation, while stations with two testing bays need 475 tests per month to break even. In addition, we do a limited (about 10%) oil change business in six of our Texas locations. As of February 2006, we were averaging 775 tests per month in our stations.

 

We currently purchase our raw materials, such as filters, hoses, etc., from several suppliers, and because these raw materials are readily available from a variety of suppliers, we do not rely upon any one supplier for a material portion of our materials. Certificates of Emission Inspection are purchased from the Georgia Clean Air Force, and emission and safety inspection stickers are purchased from the Texas Department of Public Safety, the Salt Lake Valley Health Department, and Utah Highway Patrol.

 

Intellectual Property

 

We have registered the trade name “Speedemissions” in Fulton County, Georgia, and Austin, Texas, and are thereby authorized to conduct our business in Georgia and Texas under the name “Speedemissions.”  We have filed a Federal Service Mark Registration for the name and logo of Speedemissions, Inc., and for the tag line “The Fastest Way to Keep Your Air Clean.”

 

Competition

 

The emissions testing industry is full of small owner-operators. Auto repair shops, tire stores, oil change stores, muffler shops, service stations, and other emissions testing stations all offer the service. There are no national competitors at this time. Competition is fierce, and we expect competition from local operators at all of our locations. We expect such competition whenever and wherever we open or acquire a station. Our market share is too small to measure. Our revenue from emissions testing is affected primarily by the number of vehicles our stations service, and the price charged per test. Other emissions testing operators may have greater financial resources than us, which may allow them to obtain more expensive and advantageous locations for testing stations, to provide services in addition to emissions testing, to charge lower prices than we do, and to advertise and promote their businesses more effectively than we do. For example, some of our competitors in Atlanta charge only $20.00 to test a vehicle rather than the $25.00 maximum allowed under Georgia law. As a result, we have had to reduce our fees to $20.00 in some of our Atlanta stations. We intend to compete by creating brand awareness through advertising, a standard building style and facade, and consistent color schemes and uniforms. Because most families own more than one vehicle, and they are required to have their vehicle tested on a regular basis, we anticipate that we can retain repeat customers. Although we believe our stations are well positioned to compete, we cannot assure you that our stations will maintain, or will increase, their current testing volumes and revenues.

 

Research and Development

 

We have not spent any material amount of time or money on research and development, and do not anticipate doing so in the future.

Compliance with Environmental Laws
 

There are no environmental laws applicable to the vehicle emissions and safety inspection business.

 

Employees

 

We currently employ 111 individuals. Of these 111 employees, seven are employed in administrative positions at our headquarters, including our Chief Executive Officer, Richard A. Parlontieri, while 104 are employed on-site at our testing locations. 101 of our employees are full-time, while 10 are employed on a part-time basis.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

Disclaimer Regarding Forward Looking Statements

 

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains not only statements that are historical facts, but also statements that are forward-looking (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Forward-looking statements are, by their very nature, uncertain and risky. These risks and uncertainties include international, national and local general economic and market conditions; demographic changes; our ability to sustain, manage, or forecast growth; our ability to successfully make and integrate acquisitions; raw material costs and availability; new product development and introduction; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; the loss of significant customers or suppliers; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results; changes in business strategy or development plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the ability to protect technology; and other risks that might be detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Although the forward-looking statements in this prospectus reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by them. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports as we attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects.

 

Overview

 

As of December 31, 2005 we operated 35 vehicle emissions testing stations and four mobile units in three separate markets, greater Atlanta, Georgia, Houston, Texas and greater Salt Lake City, Utah. We have a new store under construction in both the Atlanta and Houston markets. We do not provide automotive repair services at our centers because we believe that it inhibits our ability to provide timely customer service and creates a perception that our test results might be compromised.

 

We charge a fee for each test, whether it passes or not, and a portion of that fee is passed on to the state governing agency. In Georgia, the maximum fee that we can charge is $25, and a fee of $6.95 is paid to the State of Georgia. In Texas, the maximum fee that we can charge is $39.50, for both an emissions test and a safety inspection, and a fee varying between approximately $5.50 and $14.00 per certificate, depending on the type of test is paid to the State of Texas. In Utah, there is not a maximum fee that we can charge in Salt Lake County. We charge $38 for an emissions test and $17 for a safety inspection and remit a fee of $3.60 to the County per emissions certificate and $2.00 to the Utah Highway Patrol for each safety inspection. There is a maximum of $25 and $17 that we can charge in Weber County, Utah for an emissions test and safety inspection respectively. A fee of $3.00 is remitted to the County per emissions certificate and a $2.00 fee is remitted to the Utah Highway Patrol for each safety inspection.

 

We want to grow. We completed four acquisitions during 2004 and two acquisitions during 2005, which added 32 testing centers and four mobile units. In 2006, we intend to continue growing by acquiring more competitors and opening company-owned stations.

 

34



 

As a result of our growth plans, our biggest challenge will be managing our growth and integrating our acquisitions. We have tried to attract qualified personnel to assist us with this growth, while keeping our overhead expenses manageable. We have not operated at a profit, nor have we consistently operated on a break-even cash flow basis. However, if we are successful in implementing our growth strategy, we believe that both of these financial goals are achievable in the next 12 months. Until that time, we will have to continue to fund our operations, and our acquisitions, with capital raised from selling our stock and/or acquiring debt.

 

Explanatory Paragraph in Report of Our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

Our independent accountants have included an explanatory paragraph in their most recent report, stating that our audited financial statements as of and for the year ending December 31, 2005 were prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. They note our recurring losses from operations, operating cash flow deficiencies, and limited capital resources raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Our independent accountants included the explanatory paragraph based primarily on an objective test of our historical financial results. Although we agree that this explanatory paragraph is applicable when the objective test is applied, we believe that if we can successfully implement our business plan in the future years, future audit reports might be issued without this explanatory paragraph. Until such time, however, our going concern paragraph may be viewed by some shareholders and investors as an indication of financial instability, and it may impair our ability to raise capital.

Results of Operations

 

Introduction

 

Our operations reflect a significantly different company in 2005 versus 2004. At the beginning of 2004 we operated 25 emissions testing stations plus seven mobile units in Georgia and Texas. During 2005 we made two acquisitions (adding 14 stations) and closed four existing stations and reduced our mobile fleet by three, increasing our emissions testing stations to 35 plus four mobile units as of December 31, 2005. As a result, our revenues and operating expenses increased significantly in 2005 compared to 2004. Additionally, our acquisition and capital raising activities during 2005 added significant expenses associated with common stock issued at discounts from the trading values for our common stock.

 

Revenues and Loss from Operations

 

Our revenue, cost of emission certificates (our cost of goods sold), general and administrative expenses, and loss from operations for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2005 as compared to the comparable period ended December 31, 2004 were as follows:

Our cost of emission certificates increased $1,175,776, or 134%, in 2005 and was $2,050,283, or 29% of revenues, compared to $874,507, or 30% of revenues, during 2004. The $1,175,776 increase was mainly attributable to the net increase in the number of testing stations from 2004 to 2005 and the inclusion of a full year of operations from the six stores acquired in December 2004 from State Inspections of Texas.

(a)  Cost of emission certificates for existing stations in 2004 do not include cost of emission certificates for January 2004 for 12 stations which were acquired at the end of Janaury 2004. The percentage change when comparing the eleven month period February through December 2005 and 2004 was an increase of approximately 22% in cost of emission certificates.

(c)          Just, Inc. stores acquired on August 31, 2005 include cost of emission certificates for four-month period beginning September 1, 2005.

 

Our general and administrative expenses increased $1,663,719, or 34%, to $6,565,079 from $4,901,360 in 2004. The 31% increase in general and administrative expenses from 2004 to 2005 compares favorably with the 142% increase in revenues during the same period and indicates that the significant fixed expenses associated with being a public company do not increase proportionally with increased revenues. As we grow through future acquisitions we expect revenues will continue to increase at a faster rate than do general and administrative expenses and these efficiencies will result in more profitable operations. The primary causes of the increased general and administrative expenses were the following differences in expenses recorded between the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, and the twelve months ended December 31, 2005 which respectively increased or (decreased) expenses recorded in the twelve months ended December 31, 2005 when compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2004:

Our interest expense increased $162,905, or 254%, to $227,015 compared to $64,110 for 2004. The increase was mainly due to an increase in our outstanding debt from a $1,285,000 promissory note from the seller in order to acquire the six State Inspections of Texas stations.

 

During 2005, we had a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $3,688,638, or ($1.43), per weighted-average share. During 2004, we reported a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $3,137,948, or ($1.43), per weighted-average share. The $550,690 increase in net loss for 2005 was primarily due to the $1,660,538 warrant settlement expense, partially offset by an increase of $2,908,503 in revenue less cost of emission certificates, due to the net 10 stations added through acquisition and new stations openings and the inclusion of a full year of operations from the six stores acquired in December 2004 from State Inspections of Texas. Net loss excluding the preferred stock dividends and warrant settlement expense decreased $1,081,879, or 36%, from $2,972,056 for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2004 to $1,890,177. As we grow through future acquisitions we expect revenues will continue to increase at a faster rate than associated expenses and these efficiencies will result in more profitable operations.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Introduction

 

During 2005, we did not generate positive operating cash flows. With the acquisitions described above and as we continue to implement our growth strategy, we anticipate an increase in our operating cash flow, but with the increased costs of expanding our operations, may not achieve positive operating cash flow during 2006. To date, we has funded operations and acquisitions primarily through the issuance of equity securities. We anticipate raising additional capital during the second quarter of 2006 from the sale of our equity securities and debt financing, although the terms of this offering have not been determined.

 

Both of our acquisitions during the twelve months ended December 31, 2005 were funded from the private placement of $6,420,000 of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to Barron Partners, LP.

Cash Requirements

 

For the year ended December 31, 2005 our net cash used in operating activities was ($714,157), as compared to ($788,429) for the year ended December 31, 2004. Negative operating cash flows during 2005 were primarily created by a net loss from operations before the settlement expense of $1,890,177, partially offset by: a net increase of $251,626 in accrued interest expense, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, stock issued for services valued at $381,858, goodwill impairment charge of subsidiaries of $97,000, and depreciation and amortization of $429,171.

 

Our net cash used in operating activities decreased $74,272, or 9%, from 2004 to 2005. The following table shows net loss as a percentage of revenues decreasing from 104% in 2004 to 27% in 2005. This further indicates that the significant fixed expenses associated with being a public company do not increase proportionally with increased revenues. As we grow through future acquisitions we expect revenues will continue to increase at a faster rate than associated expenses and these efficiencies will result in more profitable operations.

Sources and Uses of Cash

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $5,413,846 and $2,560,876, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. The investing activities during 2005 and 2004 involved primarily $5,314,273 and $2,376,015 used in the acquisition of businesses.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $6,361,799 and $3,356,505, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. Net cash provided during 2005 resulted primarily from the $5,906,400 in proceeds from the sale of convertible preferred stock, which is net of $513,600 associated financing costs, proceeds of $350,000 from the issuance of promissory notes to related parties and an increase of $195,000 resulting from a private placement of our common stock and warrants and net proceeds of $126,000 resulting from the issuance of convertible debentures. Net cash provided during 2004 resulted primarily from the $2,234,002 in proceeds from the sale of convertible preferred stock, net of associated financing costs, proceeds of $231,600 from the issuance of promissory notes to related parties and an increase of $987,550 resulting from a private placement of the our common stock and warrants.

 

On October 14, 2005, as part of the Settlement Agreement, GCFG converted all amounts due and owing under the Speedemissions, Inc. Secured Promissory Note dated December 30, 2004, in the principal amount of $1,285,000 plus accrued interest of $124,288.25 into (i) 1,409 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock with rights and preferences outlined in the Amended Certificate of Designation of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and (ii) a warrant to purchase 2,400,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.20 per share for a period of five years.

 

On October 14, 2005, as part of the Settlement Agreement, GCA converted all amounts due and owing, including accrued interest, under the $350,000 principal amount promissory note dated January 26, 2005,  the $300,000 principal amount promissory note dated August 2, 2001, and the $110,000 principal amount promissory note dated August 7, 2004 and $302,847 in cumulative dividends due and owing under the existing 2,500 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into (i) 1,224 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, (ii) a warrant to purchase 1,600,000 shares of our common stock with an exercise price of $1.20 per share of common stock for a period of five years, and (iii) an amended warrant agreement dated January 26, 2005 to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock reducing the exercise price from $2.40 to $1.20 per share.

 

On June 25, 2005, we converted seven identical unsecured promissory notes totaling $315,000 held by Calabria Advisors, LLC, an entity controlled by Mr. Parlontieri, plus accrued interest into 11,242 shares of our common stock.

 

On June 16, 2004, the combined principal amount of $315,000 and accrued interest amount of approximately $9,000 outstanding under a series of our promissory notes were converted into 924,996 shares of our common stock at an exchange rate of $0.35 per common share.

 

On January 18, 2004, the combined principal amount of $225,000 and accrued interest amount of approximately $55,000 outstanding under one of our promissory notes were converted into 1,100,000 shares of our common stock at an exchange rate of $0.25 per common share.

 

We are not generating sufficient cash flow from operations to fund growth as we continue to acquire and open new emission testing and safety inspection stations. If we can successfully complete one or more acquisitions of profitable businesses, then we anticipate that we can operate

at a profitable level. Until such time, however, and in order to complete the acquisitions, we will need to raise additional capital through the sale of our equity securities and or through debt financing to continue implementation of our growth strategy.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. In consultation with our Board of Directors, we have identified accounting policies related to valuation of our common stock and for assessing whether any value should be assigned to a warrant that we believe is key to an understanding of our financial statements. Additionally, we have identified accounting policies related to the valuation of goodwill, created as the result of business acquisitions, as a key to an understanding of our financial statements. These are important accounting policies that require management’s most difficult, subjective judgments.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

 

We entered into a Settlement Agreement with holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and holders of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. We delivered a total of 2,633 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to GCA and GFCF and warrants to purchase 8,000,000 shares of common stock. See a more detailed description in the Recent Corporate Developments section.

 

In 2001, our subsidiary issued two promissory notes to GCA, one in the amount of $300,000, and the other in the amount of $225,000. Both notes bear interest quarterly at the rate of 10%. The $300,000 note was due in October 2004, after its due date was extended by GCA in writing, while the $225,000 note was due in October 2003. On October 9, 2003, we assumed the notes from our subsidiary. In January 2004, we agreed to convert the $225,000 note, plus accrued interest, into 110,000 shares of common stock. As part of the Settlement Agreement, more fully discussed under Item 1 – Description of Business – Recent Developments, on October 14, 2005, we converted the $300,000 Note, plus accrued interest, into 126 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

On June 13, 2003, our subsidiary entered into a consulting agreement with V2R, Inc., which is controlled by Bahram Yusefzadeh, who subsequent to June 13, 2003 became one of our directors. Under the terms of the agreement, our subsidiary agreed to pay to V2R, upon the successful closing of a merger or acquisition of our subsidiary with a publicly traded corporation, the sum of $225,000. Of this amount, $125,000 was to be paid in accordance with the terms of a promissory note. The principal balance of the note was due on December 31, 2003, but was extended pursuant to an amendment dated December 30, 2003 to the earlier to occur of (i) the closing of a round of equity or debt financing in excess of $1,500,000, (ii) 90 days after the effectiveness of a registration statement, or (iii) in three equal installments beginning March 1, 2004, May 1, 2004, and July 1, 2004. The entire principal and interest became due on January 21, 2004 when we closed a round of equity financing in excess of $1,500,000; however, as of the date hereof we have made payments of $86,666 leaving an unpaid balance of principal and interest of approximately $54,157 as of December 31, 2005.

 

In connection with the June 16, 2003 acquisition of Speedemissions by SKTF, Speedemissions entered into a consulting agreement with V2R. Effective January 1, 2004, the consulting agreement was cancelled and replaced, by mutual agreement of V2R and us, with a new agreement. The new agreement continued for 30 months at a consulting fee of $8,334 per month. The new agreement granted V2R warrants to purchase 10,000 shares of our common stock at $2.50 per share. The warrants vest in two increments of 5,000 on January 1, 2005 and 2006, respectively. Additionally, V2R can earn success fees calculated using the Lehman Formula, as defined, for merger and acquisition and strategic alliance or partnership agreements arranged by the entity. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, we paid a total of approximately $32,500, under the consulting agreement. Effective June 30, 2005, the agreement was amended to terminate the monthly retainer fees and extend the expiration of the agreement to July 1, 2007, by mutual consent of V2R and us. The current balance of unpaid retainer fees to V2R was $88,691 as of December 31, 2005.

 

Effective September 5, 2003, we entered into a separate indemnification agreement with each of our then-current directors. Under the terms of the indemnification agreements, we agreed to indemnify each director to the fullest extent permitted by law if the director was or is a party or threatened to be made a party to any action or lawsuit by reason of the fact that he is or was a director. The indemnification shall cover all expenses, penalties, fines and amounts paid in

settlement, including attorneys’ fees. A director will not be indemnified for intentional misconduct for the primary purpose of his own personal benefit. On July 8, 2005, and August 23, 2005, respectively, we entered into identical agreements with our newly appointed directors, Mr. Sander and Mr. Childs.

 

On January 21, 2004, we completed a private placement of 2,500 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and 2,500,000 common stock purchase warrants to GCA, in exchange for gross proceeds to us of $2,500,000. We received net proceeds of $2,234,000 after payment of advisory fees to Global Capital Advisors, LLC. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock originally paid a dividend of 7% per annum, but as part of the Settlement Agreement on October 14, 2005, we converted the accrued dividends into 303 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and eliminated the dividend going forward. Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 833.33 shares of our common stock. The warrants are exercisable for a period of 5 years at an original exercise price of $1.25 per share of common stock to be acquired upon exercise, which has been adjusted to $1.20 per share of common stock as part of the Settlement Agreement.

 

On December 30, 2004, we executed a secured promissory note in favor of State Inspections of Texas, Inc. in the principal amount of $1,285,000 in exchange for the purchase of certain assets related to six operating emissions testing centers in Houston, Texas. Payment terms of the note were interest only (12.5% annually) payable monthly from February 2005 through January 2006, monthly principal and interest payments of $43,000 from February 2006 through June 2008 and a final payment of approximately $291,000 in July 2008. State Inspections of Texas, Inc. is owned by Global Capital Funding Group, LP. As part of the Settlement Agreement, we entered into the GCFG Exchange Agreement and converted the outstanding balance plus accrued interest into 1,409 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

On December 30, 2004, we executed a secured promissory note in favor of State Inspections of Texas, Inc. in the principal amount of $110,000 in exchange for the purchase of certain assets. Payment terms of the note were interest only (12.5% annually) payable monthly from February 2005 through June 2008 and a final payment of $110,000 in July 2008. Effective on October 14, 2005, in connection with the settlement discussed below, we converted the outstanding balance plus accrued interest into 126 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

On January 26, 2005, we executed a promissory note in favor of GCA in the principal amount of $350,000, and on that date we received funds in the same amount. The entire principal amount was due, plus interest at the rate of 8% per year, on April 26, 2005. As part of the Settlement Agreement on October 14, 2005, we converted the outstanding balance plus accrued interest into 369 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and amended the warrant held by GCA to purchase 10,000 shares of our common stock, originally exercisable for a period of five years at $3.57 per share, adjusted to $1.20 per share. We also issued to Global Capital Advisors, LLC, the investment advisory to GCA, warrants to acquire 10,000 shares of our common stock, exercisable for a period of five years at $3.57 per share.

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS

 

Market Information

 

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “SPMI”. Although our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, there has been limited trading, at widely varying prices, and trading to date has not created an active market for our common stock. Thus, the prices at which trades occurred may not be representative of the actual value of our common stock. On a number of days during this period, there were no trades at all in our common stock.

 

The following table sets forth the high and low bid information for each quarter of the last two fiscal years of 2004 and 2005, as provided by the Nasdaq Stock Markets, Inc. (adjusted to reflect a 1-for-10 reverse stock split on January 20, 2006). The prices listed below are quotations, which reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail markup, markdown, or commission, and may not represent actual transactions.

The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 requires additional disclosure relating to the market for penny stocks in connection with trades in any stock defined as a penny stock. The Commission has adopted regulations that generally define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to a few exceptions which we do not meet. Unless an exception is available, the regulations require the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith.

 

Holders

 

As of December 31, 2005, there were 26,835,808 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, not adjusted for the reverse stock split, and held by 103 shareholders of record. As of March 8, 2006, after the reverse stock split, there were 2,873,598 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding and held by 102 shareholders of record. As of December 31, 2005 and March 8, 2006, there were 5,133 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding and held of record by two shareholders. As of December 31, 2005 and March 8,

2006, there were 2,500,000 and 2,481,481 shares of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, respectively, and held of record by one shareholder.

 

Dividends

 

We have never declared or paid a cash dividend on our common stock and we do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain our earnings, if any, for use in our business. Any dividends declared on our common stock in the future will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors.

 

We previously were obligated to pay cumulative dividends at an annual rate of 7% on the outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. At our option, we could have paid these dividends in cash or in additional shares of our common stock. On October 14, 2005, the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock consented to the termination of dividend accruals on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Pursuant to the GCA Exchange Agreement, GCA exchanged the $302,847 in cumulative dividends due and owing under 2,500 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock through October 14, 2005 for additional shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and common stock purchase warrants.

 

Our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock does not pay a dividend.

 

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

 

We have adopted two stock option plans. On May 15, 2001, our directors and shareholders approved the SKTF, Inc. 2001 Stock Option Plan, effective June 1, 2001. At our annual shareholders meeting on August 27, 2003, our shareholders approved an amendment to the plan, changing its name to the Speedemissions, Inc. 2001 Stock Option Plan, and increasing the number of shares of our common stock available for issuance under the plan from 60,000 shares to 100,000 shares. As of March 8, 2006, we have issued options to acquire 84,975 shares of our common stock under the plan at prices ranging from $2.00 to $5.15 per share, and we have issued 5,000 shares of common stock under the plan.

 

At our annual 2005 meeting, the shareholders approved the 2005 Omnibus Stock Grant and Option Plan (the “2005 Plan”), effective September 1, 2005. We may issue options for up to 250,000 shares of our common stock. For purposes of the 2005 Plan, each year of the plan commences on September 1. On September 1 of each new plan year, the number of shares in the 2005 Plan is automatically adjusted to an amount equal to 10% of outstanding shares of common stock on August 31 of the immediately preceding plan year. As of March 8, 2006, under the 2005 Plan we have issued 238,500 shares or options at an exercise price of $1.00 per share.

 

We filed a Form S-8 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 8, 2005 registering the 250,000 shares of our common stock available under the 2005 Plan.

 

As of December 31, 2005, the plan information is as follows:

Employment Agreements and Compensation of Officers and Directors

 

Effective September 15, 2003, we entered into a three-year employment agreement with Richard A. Parlontieri, our President and Chief Executive Officer. This employment agreement was amended on December 19, 2003. Under the terms of the agreement, Mr. Parlontieri receives a salary of $180,000 per year, plus an automobile and expense allowance, and is eligible for an annual bonus as set forth in the agreement. In January 2006, the Compensation Committee approved a salary increase to $190,000 pursuant to the salary adjustment term of the employment agreement. The agreement may be terminated by us for cause, in which case Mr. Parlontieri would not be entitled to severance compensation, or without cause, in which case Mr. Parlontieri would be entitled to the balance of his salary due under the agreement, plus other compensation earned through the date of termination. If Mr. Parlontieri’s employment terminates due to a change of control of our company, Mr. Parlontieri is entitled to receive his base salary multiplied by three.

 

On February 22, 2005, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors issued to Mr. Parlontieri warrants to acquire 25,000 shares of our common stock at $2.50 per share, the fair market value of our common stock based on the closing bid price on the date of grant.

 

In March 2005, Mr. Parlontieri was granted options to purchase up to 3,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share for a period of ten years. In December 2005, Mr. Parlontieri was granted options to purchase up to 150,000 shares of our common stock, at $1.00 per shares for a period of ten years.

 

On February 22, 2005, and again on April 11, 2005, we issued 25,000 shares of our common stock to Calabria Advisors, LLC, an entity controlled by Mr. Parlontieri, for services rendered.

 

Our Directors are entitled to reimbursement for their travel expenses. In addition, in March 2005 we issued both to Mr. Thompson and Mr. Yusefzadeh options to acquire 7,500 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, exercisable for a period of ten years. On June 29, 2005 and August 26, 2005, we issued options to acquire 2,500 shares of our common stock under our 2001 Stock Option Plan to Erik Sander and Ernest A. Childs, respectively. The options vested immediately and are exercisable at $2.00 per share for a period of ten years. In December 2005, we issued options to acquire 5,000 shares of our common stock under our 2005 Plan to each of our directors, Erik Sander, Ernest A. Childs, Bahram Yusefzadeh,

and Brad Thompson. The options vested one-third immediately and one-third on each of the anniversaries of the date of the grant and are exercisable at $1.00 per share for a period of ten years.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING
AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

 

2005 Change in Independent Auditors

 

On January 28, 2005, Bennett Thrasher PC, the independent accountants previously engaged as the principal accountants to audit our financial statements, resigned as our auditors because they have decided to no longer provide audit services to entities registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Effective on February 2, 2005, we engaged Tauber & Balser, P.C., as our independent certified public accountants. The decision to change accountants was approved by our Board of Directors.

 

The audit report of Bennett Thrasher PC on our financial statements as of December 31, 2003 and for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2003 (the “Audit Period”) did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except the reports were modified to include an explanatory paragraph wherein they expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. During the Audit Period, and through January 28, 2005, there were no disagreements with Bennett Thrasher PC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the former accountants, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report, and there were no reportable events as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

We provided a copy of this disclosure to Bennett Thrasher PC and requested that they furnish us with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether they agree with the statements made herein, and, if not, stating the respects in which they do not agree. They provided such a letter, disclosing that they agree with our statements.

 

During the two most recent fiscal years, or any subsequent interim period prior to engaging Tauber & Balser, P.C., neither we nor anyone acting on our behalf consulted with Tauber & Balser, P.C. regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, or (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements where either written or oral advice was provided that was an important factor considered by us in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, or (iii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement with our former accountant on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the former accountant, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its audit report.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

 

Speedemissions, Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Speedemissions Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2005, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficiency), and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

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

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Speedemissions, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company’s recurring losses from operations, operating cash flow deficiencies and its limited capital resources raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Speedemissions, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Note 1: Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Emissions Testing, Inc. was incorporated on May 5, 2000 under the laws of the state of Georgia for the primary business purpose of opening, acquiring, developing and operating vehicle emission testing stations. Effective as of March 19, 2002, Emissions Testing, Inc. and Speedemissions, LLC merged and changed its name to Speedemissions, Inc. Effective as of June 16, 2003, Speedemissions, Inc. (“Speedemissions” or the “Company”) entered into an acquisition agreement with SKTF Enterprises, Inc. (“SKTF”). Pursuant to the acquisition agreement, SKTF acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Speedemissions in exchange for approximately 900,000 shares of SKTF common stock, which were issued to the stockholders of Speedemissions. Accordingly, Speedemissions became a wholly owned subsidiary of SKTF.

 

SKTF was a development stage company that had not begun operations and had no revenues and a minimal amount of assets and liabilities. For accounting purposes, Speedemissions was viewed as the acquiring entity and accounted for the transaction as a reverse acquisition. Accounting and reporting guidance indicates that the merger of a private operating company into a non-operating public shell corporation with nominal net assets is in substance a capital transaction rather than a business combination. That is, the transaction is equivalent to the private company issuing common stock for the net monetary assets of the shell corporation, accompanied by a recapitalization.

 

The accumulated deficit of Speedemissions was carried forward subsequent to the acquisition. Results of operations subsequent to the date of acquisition reflect the consolidated results of operations of Speedemissions and SKTF. Operations for periods prior to the acquisition reflect those of Speedemissions. Assets and liabilities of Speedemissions and SKTF have been consolidated at their historical cost carrying amounts at the date of acquisition.

 

Effective on September 5, 2003, SKTF Enterprises, Inc. changed its name to Speedemissions, Inc. For ease of reference, these notes and the accompanying consolidated financial statements continue to refer to “SKTF” and “Speedemissions” in the context of their legal names prior to the September 5, 2003 name change.

 

On June 30, 2005, the Company purchased all of the outstanding common stock of Mr. Sticker, Inc., (“MS”) a Houston, Texas, company that operates six (6) emissions testing stations in the Houston, Texas area. The purchase price was $3,100,000 in cash plus 18,300 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $43,000. Mr. Sticker’s financial statements have been consolidated, as a wholly owned subsidiary. The results of their operations subsequent to the acquisition are included in our 2005 operating results.

 

On September 8, 2005, the Company purchased all of the outstanding common stock of Just, Inc., (“JI”) a Salt Lake City, Utah company that operates eight (8) emissions testing stations in the Salt Lake City, Utah area. The purchase price was $2,300,000 in cash plus 71,429 shares of the Company’s common stock, valued at $200,000, which is included in accrued liabilities as the shares were not issued as of December 31, 2005. JI’s financial statements have been consolidated, as a wholly owned subsidiary. The results of their operations subsequent to the acquisition are included in our 2005 operating results.

 

On January 20, 2006, the Company effected a 1 for 10 reverse stock split of its common stock. All references in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements to the number of shares of common stock and loss per share have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split. As a result of the reverse stock split, the Company’s ticker symbol changed from “SPEM” to “SPMI” on the OTC Bulletin Board.

Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Speedemissions, MS, JI and SKTF as discussed in Note 1. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Nature of Operations

 

Speedemissions is engaged in opening, acquiring, developing, and operating vehicle emissions testing and safety inspection stations. The federal government and a number of state and local governments in the United States (and in certain foreign countries) mandate vehicle emissions testing as a method of improving air quality.

 

As of December 31, 2005, the Company operated thirty-five (35) emissions testing stations and four (4) mobile units in greater metropolitan areas of Atlanta, Georgia; Houston, Texas; and Salt Lake City, Utah. As of December 31, 2004, the Company operated twenty-five (25) emissions testing stations and seven (7) mobile units in the greater metropolitan areas of Atlanta, Georgia and Houston, Texas. The Company does business under the trade names Speedemissions, Mr. Sticker (Texas) and Just Inc. (Utah). At its emissions testing stations, the Company uses computerized emissions testing equipment and safety inspection equipment that tests vehicles for compliance with emissions and safety standards. In the emissions testing and safety inspection industry, such stations are known as decentralized facilities. The Company utilizes “basic” testing systems that test a motor vehicle’s emissions while in neutral and “enhanced” testing systems that test a vehicle’s emissions under simulated driving conditions.

 

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. Significant estimates included in these financial statements relate to useful lives of certain assets, valuation of long-term assets such as goodwill. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue is recognized as the testing services are performed. The cost of emissions certificates is shown separately in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

 

The Company normally requires that the customer’s payment be made with cash, check, or credit card; accordingly, the Company does not have significant levels of accounts receivable.

 

Under current Georgia, Texas, and Utah laws, if a vehicle fails an emissions test, it may be retested at no additional charge during a specified period after the initial test, as long as the subsequent test is performed at the same facility. The costs of such retests are not material. Accordingly, no allowance for retest is recorded by the Company.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives, as follows: building, fifteen years; emission testing equipment, five years; and furniture, fixtures, and office equipment, five years.

 

F-7



 

Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the lesser of the remaining lease terms, including renewal periods expected to be exercised, or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

Property and Equipment

 

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, the Company reviews its assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When indicators of impairment are present, the Company evaluates the carrying amount of such assets in relation to the operating performance and future estimated undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets or underlying businesses. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. The assessment of the recoverability of assets will be impacted if estimated future operating cash flows are not achieved. In the opinion of management, property and equipment was not impaired as of December 31, 2005 or 2004.

 

Goodwill

 

The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142), which prescribes the accounting for all purchased goodwill. In accordance with SFAS 142, goodwill is not amortized but tested for impairment annually and also whenever an impairment indicator arises.

 

In the opinion of management, goodwill was impaired as of December 31, 2005 relating to the goodwill recorded from the acquisition of the assets of State Inspections of Texas, Inc. The fair value of goodwill was determined using discounted cash flow techniques based on current operating results of future projections. The amount of the goodwill impairment has been calculated at $97,000 and is recorded in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2005. In the opinion of management, goodwill was not impaired as of December 31, 2004.

 

Income Taxes

 

Deferred income taxes are recognized for the effect of temporary differences between financial reporting and tax filing in accordance with the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.

 

Advertising Costs

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense totaled $22,206 in 2005 and $27,551 in 2004.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and other short-term liabilities, approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these accounts.

 

Net Loss Per Common Share

 

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number

 

F-8



 

of common and potential common shares outstanding during the period, if the effect of the potential common shares is dilutive. As a result of the Company’s net losses, all potentially dilutive securities would be anti-dilutive and are excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share.

 

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25), and related interpretations in accounting for stock options. The Company has adopted only the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123), as amended by statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure, in accounting for stock options and does not recognize compensation expense under the fair value provisions of SFAS 123. The Company has chosen to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic-value-based method. Accordingly, compensation costs for stock options issued to employees is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the stock at the date of the grant over the amount the employee must pay to acquire the stock.

 

Stock-based employee compensation cost has been reflected in net loss in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, for the 40,000 options classified as variable stock options granted that had an exercise price less than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant (see Note 7). At the end of each calendar quarter, the Company determines a value for the financial effect of the variable stock options. The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and net loss per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 to stock-based employee compensation.

The fair value of stock options issued during 2005 and 2004 has been determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rates of 3.00%; expected lives of 3 years; expected volatility of 45%; and no dividend yield.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

Recent pronouncements that potentially affect these or future financial statements include:

 

FASB Statement No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment”, becomes effective at the beginning of the Company’s quarter ending March 31, 2006 and will require all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values and no longer allows pro forma disclosure as an alternative to financial statement recognition.

 

Note 2: Going Concern

 

The Company has historically incurred losses and has not yet generated a profit which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The future success of the

 

F-9



 

Company is contingent upon, among other things, the ability to: achieve and maintain satisfactory levels of profitable operations; obtain and maintain adequate levels of debt and/or equity financing; and provide sufficient cash flow from operations to meet current and future obligations. The Company is actively seeking new sources of financing to expand its revenue opportunities, however there is no guarantee that the Company will be successful in obtaining the financing required to fund its capital needs.

 

The Company has taken certain steps to maintain its operating and financial requirements in an effort to enable it to continue as a going concern until such time that revenues are sufficient to cover expenses, including expanding its revenue opportunities through the acquisitions of Mr. Sticker and Just Inc. in 2005, incorporating revisions to its processes and costs by seeking reduced operating costs through service agreements, redistributing labor to reduce overtime costs, and improving the appearance of its stores and personnel.

 

The Company has prepared financial forecasts which indicate that, based on its current business plans and strategies, it anticipates that it will achieve profitable operations and generate positive cash flows in the future. However, the ultimate ability of the Company to achieve these forecasts and to meet the objectives discussed in the preceding paragraph cannot be determined at this time. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Note 6: Leasing Activities

 

Operating Leases

 

The Company leases office space and land and buildings for certain of its emission testing stations. The leases generally require that the Company pay taxes, maintenance, and insurance. The leases for the emission testing stations are renewable, at the option of the Company, for specified periods. Management expects that, in the normal course of business, leases that expire will be renewed or replaced by other leases. Certain of the leases have been personally guaranteed by the president of the Company.

 

Certain of the above leases contain scheduled base rent increases over the terms of the leases. The total amount of base rent payments is charged to expense on a straight-line basis over the lease terms. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the excess of rent expense over cash payments was approximately $121,000 and $40,000, respectively. Such amount is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Preferred Stock

 

On January 21, 2004, the Company completed a private placement of 2,500 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) and 250,000 common stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”) to GCA Strategic Investment Fund Limited (“GCA Fund”), an existing affiliate shareholder of the Company, in exchange for gross proceeds to the Company of $2,500,000. Net proceeds to the Company after the payment of an advisors fee and offering expenses was $2,234,000.

 

The Preferred Stock accrued a dividend of 7% per annum, and each share of Preferred Stock is convertible into 833.33 shares of the Company’s common stock, or 2,083,333 shares of common stock in the aggregate. As of October 14, 2005, pursuant to the articles of amendment, the Preferred Stock no longer accrued dividends. The Warrants are exercisable for a period of five years at an exercise price of $1.20 per share of common stock to be acquired upon exercise. In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company preferred stockholders are entitled to be paid prior to any preference of any other payment or distribution.

 

On June 30, 2005 the Company completed a private placement of 2,500,000 shares of its Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred B Stock”) and 4,390,000 common stock purchase warrants (“B-1 Warrants” and “B-2 Warrants”) to Barron Partners LP, in exchange for gross proceeds to the Company of $6,420,000. Net proceeds to the Company after the payment of advisors fees and offering expenses was $5,906,400. In addition to the cash portion of the advisors fee, the Company issued 285,000 common stock purchase warrants to Prospect Financial Advisors, LLC, which are exercisable for a period of five years at an exercise price of $0.60 per share of common stock to be acquired upon exercise. The Company also issued 50,000 common stock purchase warrants to Strasbourger, LLC as a finder’s fee, which are exercisable for a period of three years at an exercise price of $2.00 per share of common stock to be acquired upon exercise.

The 1,890,000 B-2 Warrants were exercisable for a period of five years at an exercise price of $4.80 per share of common stock to be acquired upon exercise. In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company preferred stockholders were entitled to be paid prior to any preference of any other payment or distribution.

 

On August 4, 2005, we entered into an Amendment to the Series B Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, and received an additional $195,000 in cash, which modified the Agreement as follows:

 

a.               the Investor purchased $6,615,000 of our Preferred B Stock;

 

b.              the B-1 Warrants were increased to 2,621,495 shares at $2.40 per share, the B-2 Warrants were increased to 1,965,934 shares at $4.80 per share, and an additional common stock purchase warrant was issued for 4,000,000 shares at $1.20 per share. We may call the $1.20 warrants if our stock price exceeds $2.40 for fifteen (15) consecutive trading days;

 

c.               Each of the Preferred B Stock is convertible into 7.56 shares of our common stock, subject to adjustment if certain conditions are met, for a total of 18,900,000 shares of common stock, has a liquidation preference equal to its purchase price, and has no voting rights; and

 

d.              the exercise of the warrants, including the call provision on the $1.20 warrants, and the conversion of the Preferred B Stock are subject to a maximum ownership by the Investor at any time of 4.9% although this limitation may be revoked upon sixty-one days notice by Barron Partners with respect to the shares underlying the warrants.

 

On August 4, 2005, in conjunction with the above-referenced amended financing transaction, we issued restated the B-1 Warrants to acquire 2,621,495 shares of our common stock at $2.40 per share, restated the B-2 Warrants to acquire 1,965,934 shares of our common stock at $4.80 per share, and issued warrants to acquire 4,000,000 shares of our common stock at $1.20 per share, to a single accredited investor, in exchange for an additional $195,000 in cash.

 

On October 14, 2005, the combined principal amount of $2,045,000 and accrued interest amount of approximately $285,000 outstanding under several promissory notes, with GCA Fund and GCFG, were converted into 2,330 shares of the Company’s Series A convertible preferred stock. Each share of Series A convertible preferred stock is convertible into 833.33 shares of the Company’s common stock or 1,941,659 shares of common stock in the aggregate. (see Note 9)

 

On October 14, 2005, GCA Fund, a majority shareholder converted accrued preferred dividends of $302,847 into 303 shares of the Company’s Series A convertible preferred stock. Each share of Series A convertible preferred stock is convertible into 833.33 shares of the Company’s common stock or 252,499. GCA Fund and the Company agreed to terminate the dividend feature on the Series A convertible preferred stock as of the conversion date. (see Note 9)

 

Common Stock

 

On January 18, 2004, the Company and GCA Fund, a majority shareholder, agreed to convert the principal amount of a $225,000 promissory note and accrued interest amount of approximately $55,000 outstanding into 110,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exchange rate of $2.50 per common share. As a result of the conversion, the Company recorded an expense of approximately $231,000 during the year ended December 31, 2004. The expense was recorded as a result of the difference between the $2.50 per share conversion price and the closing bid price for the Company’s common stock on the date of the conversion agreement.

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, the Company sold to qualified investors 85,500 security units. Each security unit consisted of two shares of the Company’s common stock and a warrant to

Note 11: Risk and Uncertainties

 

Regulatory Impact

 

The current and future demand for the Company’s services is substantially dependent upon federal, state, local, and foreign legislation and regulations mandating air pollution controls and emissions testing. If any or all of these governmental agencies should change their positions or eliminate or revise their requirements related to air pollution controls and emissions testing (including a shift to centralized facilities versus decentralized facilities), the Company could experience a significant adverse impact on its financial position and results of operations.

 

Arrangement with Shareholders

 

The Company is required to maintain a majority of independent directors on the Board of Directors or a majority of independent directors on both the audit committee and compensation committee. In addition, the Company must maintain the effectiveness of a resale registration statement for shares held by a shareholder. Failure to do so could result in liquidated damages equal to 24% of the purchase price of the Series B Preferred Stock and Stock Warrants.

 

If a shareholder other than GCA Fund and its affiliate acquires a beneficial ownership of greater than 33 1/3% or more of outstanding common stock of the Company without prior approval of GCA Fund, the Company might be required to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock.

 

F-28



 

Contingencies

 

The Company may be involved in various proceedings and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. While any proceeding or litigation has an element of uncertainty, the Company believes that the outcome of any lawsuit or claim that may be pending or threatened, or all of them combined, will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position or results or operations.

 

Note 12: Subsequent Events

 

On January 20, 2006, the Company effected a 1 for 10 reverse stock split of its common stock. All references in the accompanying financial statements and notes to the financial statements to the number of shares of common stock and loss per share have been retroactively restated to reflect these transactions. As a result of the reverse stock split, the Company’s ticker symbol changed from “SPEM” to “SPMI” on the OTC Bulletin Board.

 

On February 23, 2006, Barron Partners LP, holder of 2,500,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock converted 18,519 shares of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock into 140,000 shares of common stock.

 

Note 13: Significant Fourth Quarter Adjustments

 

The Company determined that an error was made in connection with the recording of an equity transaction relating to a beneficial conversion feature during the quarter ending June 30, 2005. During that quarter the Company recorded a charge to accumulated deficit of $4,577,632 associated with the 2,500,000 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock issued. The correction of the error decreases the net loss attributable to common shareholders for the three month period ended June 30, 2005 from $5,086,929 to $562,651 and decreases the net loss per share from $2.03 to $0.22 per share for that same period. The effect on the fourth quarter is the reduction of the Company’s accumulated deficit by $4,577,632.

PART II – INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

 

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

Section 607.0850 of the Florida Business Corporation Act permits corporations to indemnify a director, officer, employee, or agent if he or she acted in good faith and in manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation.

 

Article X of our Articles of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, no director or officer shall be personally liable to the Company or its shareholders for damages for breach of any duty owed to the Corporation or its shareholders. In addition, the Company shall have the power, in its Bylaws or in any resolution of its shareholders or directors, to indemnify the officers and directors of the Company against any liability as may be determined to be in the best interests of the Company, and in conjunction therewith, to buy, at this Company’s expense, policies of insurance.

 

Our bylaws do not further address indemnification. In 2003, we entered into a separate indemnification agreement with each of our then-current directors, and we have subsequently entered into a separate indemnification agreement with each of Mr. Sander and Mr. Childs.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Undertakings

 

A.                                   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 foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and

 

II-9



 

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 the payment by us 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 of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

B.                                     We hereby undertake:

 

(1)                                  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:

 

(i)                                     Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

(ii)                                  Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) (Section 230.424(b) of Regulation S-B) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement; and

 

(iii)                               Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution.

 

(2)                                  For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering.

 

(3)                                  File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.
