Our Business
 
Guardian 8 develops and distributes a proprietary new class of non-lethal weapons to the professional security market.  This product was designed by the Company in response to demands from professional security guards seeking a more robust product as well as highly functional tool for their duty belt.

The Company went through several years of development with our targeted industry to ensure that the compliment of features included in our product, the Pro V2, would address the needs of the user.  This included several revisions of the platform before our final product was introduced in the second quarter of 2013.

During the third quarter of 2013, the Company received its first production units assembled by its contract manufacturing, and began shipping product for both evaluation by potential customers, and actual orders where revenue was recognizable for the period.  The Company also developed its user-training program, to include certification of individuals who passed the combination of classroom and tactical training exercises.  The first training classes were held in the third and fourth quarter of 2013, resulting in more than 52 certified instructors being readied for field deployment.

During the same period, the Company added strategic hires to begin promoting and selling product within its targeted market of private security and to expand the test and evaluation program introducing the Pro V2 to new customers.  This included personnel in Customer Service, Sales, and Technical service.
 
Company History
 
In November 2010, following a reverse merger by and among us, G8 Acquisition Subsidiary, Inc. (our wholly-owned subsidiary) and Guardian 8 Corporation, a Nevada corporation, we changed the focus of our business plan.

Prior to the reverse merger with Guardian 8 Corporation in November of 2010, we operated under the name Global Risk and focused on the provision of investigative, technical IT, background, document verification, and data banks of security information and entered into the personal defense industry. This business plan was ultimately abandoned following its unsuccessful implementation. Following the merger, we assumed the business plan of Guardian 8 Corporation and entered into the personal defense industry. Concurrent with the effectiveness of the merger, we changed our name to “Guardian 8 Holdings” The result of the merger was that the former stockholders of Guardian 8 Corporation controlled approximately 95% of our outstanding shares of common stock. In addition, Guardian 8 Corporation was deemed to be the acquiring company for financial reporting purposes and the merger was accounted for as a reverse merger. All of our principal operations are conducted through Guardian 8 Corporation as our wholly owned subsidiary.

Guardian 8 Corporation was incorporated in Nevada on June 8, 2009 as Guardian 6 Corporation. In August 2009, we changed our name to Guardian 8 Corporation.
 

In June of 2009, concurrent with our incorporation, Charles “Andy” Ross, Jr., a former officer and director, agreed to transfer all rights, title and interest in and to all intellectual property rights he held in our device to us in exchange for $300,000 in cash and 19,000,000 shares of our common stock. From August of 2009 through September of 2010, Mr. Ross returned 4,500,000 shares of common stock to us for cancellation to assist in our fund raising efforts.

RISK FACTORS
 
Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as the other information in this prospectus, before deciding whether to invest in shares of our common stock. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects would suffer. In that case, the trading price of our common stock, once established, would likely decline and you might lose all or part of your investment in our common stock. The risks described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks that we currently do not know about or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also impair our operations and business results.
 
Risks Relating to Our Common Stock and the Offering

There is a limited trading market for our shares of common stock on the OTCQB.  You may not be able to sell your shares of common stock if you need money.

Our common stock is traded on the OTCQB, an inter-dealer automated quotation systems for equity securities.  There has been limited trading activity in our common stock, and when it has traded, the price has fluctuated widely.  We consider our common stock to be “thinly traded” and any last reported sale prices might not be a true market-based valuation of the common stock.  Stockholders may experience difficulty selling their shares if they choose to do so because of the illiquid market and limited public float for our common stock.

Any substantial issuance of shares of common stock pursuant to our outstanding warrants could result in dilution to existing stockholders and could cause the market price of these securities to decline.

As of June 30, 2014, we had warrants outstanding for the issuance of 21,414,621 shares of Common Stock at prices ranging from $0.25 to $0.75 per share.  Future material issuances of our securities may reduce earnings per share and dilute the percentage ownership of existing stockholders, which could harm the market price and value of our securities.

Because our common stock is deemed a low-priced “Penny” stock, an investment in our common stock should be considered high risk and subject to marketability restrictions.
 
Since our common stock is a penny stock, as defined in Rule 3a51-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, it will be more difficult for investors to liquidate their investment even if and when a market develops for the common stock. Until the trading price of the common stock rises above $5.00 per share, if ever, trading in the common stock is subject to the penny stock rules of the Securities Exchange Act specified in rules 15g-1 through 15g-10. Those rules require broker-dealers, before effecting transactions in any penny stock, to:

·  
Deliver to the customer, and obtain a written receipt for, a disclosure document;
·  
Disclose certain price information about the stock;
·  
Disclose the amount of compensation received by the broker-dealer or any associated person of the broker-dealer;
·  
Send monthly statements to customers with market and price information about the penny stock; and
·  
In some circumstances, approve the purchaser’s account under certain standards and deliver written statements to the customer with information specified in the rules.
 
Consequently, the penny stock rules may restrict the ability or willingness of broker-dealers to sell the common stock and may affect the ability of holders to sell their common stock in the secondary market and the price at which such holders can sell any such securities. These additional procedures could also limit our ability to raise additional capital in the future.

FINRA sales practice requirements may limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.
 
In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, the FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.
 
Because we were formerly a voluntarily filer under federal securities laws and were a former “shell” company, our stockholders have limited ability to rely upon Rule 144 of the Act for the public sale of our securities.

On February 7, 2013, we filed a Registration Statement on Form 8-A, as amended (the “Form 8-A”) to register our Common Stock under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Before this filing we were a voluntarily reporter under the Act and before November 2010 were considered a “shell” company. Therefore, our stockholders have a limited ability to rely on Rule 144 of the Act for the public sale of our securities, which requires us to remain current in our public reports. Because of the limited ability to utilize Rule 144 for resale of our securities, stockholders may be required to hold our securities for longer than anticipated and the costs associated with Rule 144 may be higher than those of other companies.

Transfers of our securities may be restricted by virtue of state securities “blue sky” laws that prohibit trading absent compliance with individual state laws.  These restrictions may make it difficult or impossible to sell shares in those states.

Transfers of our common stock may be restricted under the securities or securities regulation laws promulgated by various states and foreign jurisdictions, commonly referred to as “blue sky” laws.  Absent compliance with such individual state laws, our common stock may not be traded in such jurisdictions.  Because the securities registered hereunder have not been registered for resale under the blue sky laws of any state, the holders of such shares and persons who desire to purchase them should be aware that there may be significant state blue sky law restrictions upon the ability of investors to sell the securities and of purchasers to purchase the securities.  These restrictions may prohibit the secondary trading of our common stock.  Investors should consider the secondary market for our securities to be a limited one.

We have the ability to issue additional shares of our common stock and shares of preferred stock without obtaining stockholder approval, which could cause your investment to be diluted.

Our Articles of incorporation authorizes the Board of Directors to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock and up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock.  The power of the Board of Directors to issue shares of common stock, preferred stock or warrants or options to purchase shares of common stock or preferred stock is generally not subject to stockholder approval.  Accordingly, any additional issuance of our common stock, or preferred stock that may be convertible into common stock, may have the effect of diluting your investment.

We do not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.

For the foreseeable future, it is anticipated that earnings, if any, that may be generated from our operations will be used to finance our operations and that cash dividends will not be paid to holders of common stock.

Future sales of our common stock may result in a decrease in the market price of our common stock, even if our business is doing well.

The market price of our common stock, when and if established, could drop due to sales of a large number of shares of our common stock in the market after the offering or the perception that such sales could occur. This could make it more difficult to raise funds through future offerings of common stock.
 
 
Our articles of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that could discourage an acquisition or change of control of us.
 
Our articles of incorporation authorize our board of directors to issue preferred stock and common stock without stockholder approval. If our board of directors elects to issue preferred stock, it could be more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us. In addition, provisions of the articles of incorporation and bylaws could also make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us.
 
There are limitations in connection with the availability of quotes and order information on the OTCQB.

Trades and quotations on the OTCQB involve a manual process and the market information for such securities cannot be guaranteed. In addition, quote information, or even firm quotes, may not be available.  The manual execution process may delay order processing and intervening price fluctuations may result in the failure of a limit order to execute or the execution of a market order at a significantly different price.  Execution of trades, execution reporting and the delivery of legal trade confirmation may be delayed significantly.  Consequently, one may not be able to sell shares of our common stock at the optimum trading prices.
 
There are delays in order communication on the OTCQB.

Electronic processing of orders is not available for securities traded on the OTCQB and high order volume and communication risks may prevent or delay the execution of one’s OTCQB trading orders. This lack of automated order processing may affect the timeliness of order execution reporting and the availability of firm quotes for shares of our common stock. Heavy market volume may lead to a delay in the processing of OTCQB security orders for shares of our common stock, due to the manual nature of the market. Consequently, one may not able to sell shares of our common stock at the optimum trading prices.

There is a risk of market fraud on the OTCQB.

OTCQB securities are frequent targets of fraud or market manipulation. Not only because of their generally low price, but also because the OTCQB reporting requirements for these securities are less stringent than for listed or NASDAQ traded securities, and no exchange requirements are imposed. Dealers may dominate the market and set prices that are not based on competitive forces. Individuals or groups may create fraudulent markets and control the sudden, sharp increase of price and trading volume and the equally sudden collapse of the market price for shares of our common stock.

There is a limitation in connection with the editing and canceling of orders on the OTCQB.

Orders for OTCQB securities may be canceled or edited like orders for other securities. All requests to change or cancel an order must be submitted to, received and processed by the OTCQB. Due to the manual order processing involved in handling OTCQB trades, order processing and reporting may be delayed, and one may not be able to cancel or edit one’s order. Consequently, one may not able to sell their shares of our common stock at the optimum trading prices.

Increased dealer compensation could adversely affect our stock price.

The dealer’s spread (the difference between the bid and ask prices) may be large and may result in substantial losses to the seller  of shares of our common stock may incur an immediate “paper” loss due to the price spread.  Moreover, dealers trading on the OTCQB may not have a bid price for shares of our common stock on the OTCQB.  Due to the foregoing, demand for shares of our common stock on the OTCQB may be decreased or eliminated.
 
 
Risks Related to Our Business

Substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue our business as a going concern.
 
Our financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern.  We had minimal revenue and negative working capital as of December 31, 2013.  As a result of our losses and ongoing need for financing, the report from our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 contained a paragraph indicating substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  If we do not raise sufficient debt or equity capital, we may be forced to curtail our growth plans and may be unable to respond to competitive pressures and/or perceived opportunities.  These conditions create uncertainty as to our ability to continue as a going concern, and our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
We recently transitioned from a development stage company to an operating entity; however, we have a minimal operating history and have continued to generate substantial losses from operations, which raises substantial doubt as to our ability to successfully develop profitable business operations.

We have a limited operating history.  Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered in developing and marketing a new personal defense product. As a result of our recent formation we have yet to generate any revenues from operations and have been focused on organizational issues, start-up challenges, market analysis, product development, building relationships and initial fund raising activities. There is nothing at this time on which to base an assumption that our business operations will prove to be successful or that we will ever be able to operate profitably.  Our future operating results will depend on many factors, including:

·  
our ability to raise adequate working capital;
·  
success of our product development efforts;
·  
success of our marketing and sales efforts;
·  
the level of our competition;
·  
demand for the product at a profitable price;
·  
the ability of our contract manufacturer to maintain adequate levels of inventory and finished product;
·  
our ability to attract and maintain key management and employees; and
·  
our ability to effectively demonstrate our ability to develop, produce and market a personal defense product.
 
To achieve profitable operations, we must, alone or with others, successfully execute on the factors stated above, along with continually developing ways to enhance our operations. Despite our best efforts we may not be successful in our development and marketing efforts or obtain required regulatory approvals. There is a possibility that our business plan may not be received favorably by investors or we may not be able to perfect our plan of operation to be commercially viable.

We will need additional capital in the future to finance our planned growth, which we may not be able to raise or it may only be available on terms unfavorable to us or our stockholders, which may result in our inability to fund our working capital requirements and harm our operational results.

We have and expect to continue to have working capital needs. We expect our cash on hand, together with cash generated from product sales, cash equivalents and short-term investments to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next three months. After that time we may need to raise additional funds to fund our operations and implement our growth strategy, or to respond to competitive pressures and/or perceived opportunities, such as investment, acquisition, marketing and development activities.
 

If we experience operating difficulties or other factors, many of which may be beyond our control, cause our revenues or cash flows from operations, if any, to decrease, we may be limited in our ability to spend the capital necessary to complete our development, marketing and growth programs. If our cash flows do not commence within three months, we will require additional financing, in addition to anticipated cash generated from our operations, to fund our planned growth. Additional financing might not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. If adequate funds were not available or were not available on acceptable terms, our ability to fund our operations, take advantage of unanticipated opportunities, develop or enhance our business or otherwise respond to competitive pressures would be significantly limited. In such a capital restricted situation, we may curtail our marketing, development, and operational activities or be forced to sell some of our assets on an untimely or unfavorable basis.

Declining economic conditions could negatively impact our business
 
Our operations may be affected by local, national and worldwide economic conditions.  Markets in the United States and elsewhere have been experiencing extreme volatility and disruption for more than 24 months, due in part to the financial stresses affecting the liquidity of the banking system and the financial markets generally.  In recent months, this volatility and disruption has reached unprecedented levels.  The consequences of a potential or prolonged recession may include a lower level of economic activity. While the ultimate outcome and impact of the current economic conditions cannot be predicted, a lower level of economic activity might result in a decline in overall consumption.  Instability in the financial markets, as a result of recession or otherwise, also may affect the cost of capital and our ability to raise capital.
 
Our indebtedness could adversely affect our business and limit our ability to plan for or respond to changes in our business, and we may be unable to generate sufficient cash flow to satisfy significant debt service obligations.
 
As of June 30, 2014, our consolidated long-term indebtedness was $5.4 million. As discussed elsewhere herein, we intend to incur additional indebtedness in the future, including borrowings under a new line of credit with CornerStone Bank. Our indebtedness, after taking into account additional borrowings under the line of credit, could have important consequences, including the following:
 
·  
increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;
·  
reducing the availability of our cash flow for other purposes;
·  
limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate, which would place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that may have less debt;
·  
limiting, by the financial and other restrictive covenants in our debt agreements, our ability to borrow additional funds; and
·  
having a material adverse effect on our business if we fail to comply with the covenants in our debt agreements, because such failure could result in an event of default that, if not cured or waived, could result in all or a substantial amount of our indebtedness becoming immediately due and payable.

Our ability to incur significant future indebtedness, whether to finance potential acquisitions or for general corporate purposes, will depend on our ability to generate cash. To a certain extent, our ability to generate cash is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory, and other factors that are beyond our control. If our business does not generate sufficient cash flow from operations or if future borrowings are not available to us under the line of credit in amounts sufficient to enable us to fund our liquidity needs, our financial condition and operating results may be adversely affected. If we cannot make scheduled principal and interest payments on our debt obligations in the future, we may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity, sell assets, delay capital expenditures, or seek additional equity.

We substantially depend on sales of our Pro V2 device, and if this device does not gain industry acceptance, our growth prospects will be diminished.
 
We derive our revenues predominately from the Pro V2 device, and expect to depend on sales of this product for the foreseeable future. If the professional security industry does not accept our device, it would significantly harm our growth prospects, operating results and financial condition.


We are highly dependent on our officers and directors. The loss of any of them, whose knowledge, leadership and technical expertise upon which we rely, could harm our ability to execute our business plan.
 
Our success depends heavily upon the continued contributions of our current officers and directors, whose knowledge, leadership and technical expertise may be difficult to replace at this stage in our business development, and on our ability to retain and attract experienced experts, and other technical and professional staff.  We have entered into an employment agreement with Paul Hughes, Chief Operating Officer for Guardian 8 Corporation, but do not maintain key person insurance on him or Mr. Cochennet, the sole officer of the parent company. We have entered into employment agreements with Mr. Cochennet, Mr. Hughes and the other full-time executive employees of Guardian 8 Corporation. If we were to lose the services of our officers or directors, our ability to execute our business plan would be harmed and we may be forced to cease operations until such time as we could hire suitable replacements.
 
At this stage of our business operations, even with our good faith efforts, potential investors may lose their entire investment.
 
Because the nature of our business is expected to change as a result of shifts in the self-defense and personal protection industry, competition, and the development of new and improved technology, management forecasts are not necessarily indicative of future operations and should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance.
 
While Management believes its estimates of projected occurrences and events are within the timetable of its business plan, our actual results may differ substantially from those that are currently anticipated.

We may face personal injury and other liability claims that harm our reputation and adversely affect our sales and financial condition.
     
Our device is anticipated to be used in confrontations that may result in bodily injury to those involved. A person injured in a confrontation or otherwise in connection with the use of our device may bring legal action against us to recover damages on the basis of theories including personal injury, negligent design, defective product or inadequate warning. We may also be subject to lawsuits involving allegations of misuse of our products. If successful, personal injury, misuse and other claims could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition and could result in negative publicity about our device. Although we intend to carry product liability insurance, even if completely unfounded, we may still incur large legal expenses if we choose to self-insure and defend lawsuits and significant litigation this could also result in a diversion of management’s attention and resources, negative publicity and a potential award of monetary damages in excess of our insurance coverage. The outcome of any litigation is inherently uncertain and there can be no assurance that any future litigation will not have a material adverse effect on our revenues, our financial condition or financial results.

To the extent demand for our device increases, our future success will be dependent upon our ability to establish manufacturing production capacity which will be accomplished by the implementation of customized manufacturing automation equipment.

                To the extent demand for our device increases significantly in future periods, one of our key challenges will be to ramp our production capacity to meet sales demand, while maintaining product quality. Our primary strategies to accomplish this include locating larger outsourced assembly facilities. Our inability to meet any future increase in sales demand or effectively manage our expansion could have a material adverse effect on our revenues, financial results and financial condition.
 

Most of our end-user customers are subject to budgetary and political constraints that may delay or prevent sales.
 
Some of our end-user customers are targeted to be government agencies or large corporations. These agencies/corporations often do not set their own budgets and therefore, have limited control over the amount of money they can spend. In addition, these agencies experience political pressure that may dictate the manner in which they spend money. As a result, even if an agency/corporation wants to acquire our products, it may be unable to purchase them due to budgetary or political constraints, particularly in challenging economic environments. Currently, many governmental agencies are continuing to experience severe budgetary constraints. There can be no assurance that the economic and budgeting issues will not worsen and adversely impact sales of our products. Some orders may also be canceled or substantially delayed due to budgetary, political or other scheduling delays which frequently occur in connection with the acquisition of products by such agencies and such cancellations may accelerate or be more severe than we anticipated as a result of the current economic environment.
 
We expend significant resources in anticipation of a sale due to our lengthy sales cycle and may receive no revenue in return.
 
Generally, private security companies and other agencies/corporations consider a wide range of issues before committing to purchase our products, including product benefits, training costs, the cost to use our products in addition to, or in place of, other products, budget constraints and product reliability, safety and efficacy. The length of our sales cycle may range from a few weeks to as long as several years. Adverse publicity surrounding our products or the safety of such products could lengthen our sales cycle with customers. We may incur substantial selling costs and expend significant effort in connection with the evaluation of our products by potential customers before they place an order. If these potential customers do not purchase our products, we will have expended significant resources and received no revenue in return.
 
Government regulation of our device and future products may adversely affect sales.

Federal regulation of sales in the United States: Our device is not considered a firearm regulated by the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, but is a consumer product regulated by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. Although there are currently no federal laws restricting sales of our device in the United States, future federal regulation could adversely affect sales of our device and future products.
     
Federal regulation of international sales: We have been advised that our device has been classified by the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) as an EAR99 for the purposes of exporting.  This is a less regulated category, and does not require the Company to apply for an export license each time it ships to a new customer outside the U.S.  However, dependent upon changes enforced in export regulations, in the future, we could be controlled, similar to other self-defense device manufacturers, as a “crime control” product by the U.S. Department of Commerce, or DOC, for export directly from the United States.  Our inability to obtain DOC export licenses, if required, for sales of our device to international customers could significantly and adversely affect our business.
     
State and local regulation: Our device may be controlled, restricted or its use prohibited by a number of state and local governments. Other jurisdictions may ban or restrict the sale of our device and our sales may be significantly affected by additional state, county and city governmental regulation.
     
Foreign regulation: Certain foreign jurisdictions prohibit the sale of conducted energy devices, which may include a product such as our device, limiting some of our international sales opportunities.

Environmental laws and regulations subject us to a number of risks and could result in significant liabilities and costs.
     
We may be subject to various state, federal and international laws and regulations governing the environment, including restricting the presence of certain substances in electronic products and making producers of those products financially responsible for the collection, treatment, recycling and disposal of those products. Environmental legislation within the European Union (EU) may increase our cost of doing business internationally and impact our revenues from EU countries as we comply with and implement these requirements.
 
     
The EU has published Directives on the restriction of certain hazardous substances in electronic and electrical equipment (the RoHS Directive) which became effective in July 2006, and on electronic and electrical waste management (the WEEE Directive). The RoHS Directive restricts the use of a number of substances, including lead. The WEEE Directive directs members of the European Union to enact laws, regulations, and administrative provisions to ensure that producers of electric and electronic equipment are financially responsible for the collection, recycling, treatment and environmentally responsible disposal of certain products sold into the market after August 15, 2005 and from products in use prior to that date that are being replaced. In addition, similar environmental legislation has been or may be enacted in other jurisdictions, including the U.S. (under federal and state laws) and other countries, the cumulative impact of which could be significant.
     
We intend to monitor the impact of specific registration and compliance activities required by the RoHS and WEEE Directives. We endeavor to comply with applicable environmental laws, yet compliance with such laws could increase our operations and product costs; increase the complexities of product design, procurement, and manufacturing; limit our ability to manage excess and obsolete non-compliant inventory; limit our sales activities; and impact our future financial results. Any violation of these laws can subject us to significant liability, including fines, penalties, and prohibiting sales of our products into one or more states or countries, and result in a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, we may lose a competitive advantage or incur substantial litigation costs to protect our rights.
     
Our future success depends upon our proprietary technology. Our protective measures, including a patent and trade secret protection, may prove inadequate to protect our proprietary rights. The right to stop others from misusing our trademarks and service marks in commerce depends to some extent on our ability to show evidence of enforcement of our rights against such misuse in commerce. Our efforts to stop improper use, if insufficient, may lead to loss of trademark and service mark rights, brand loyalty and notoriety among our customers and prospective customers. The scope of any patent to which we have or may obtain rights may not prevent others from developing and selling competing products. The validity and breadth of claims covered in technology patents involve complex legal and factual questions, and the resolution of such claims may be highly uncertain, lengthy and expensive. In addition, our patents may be held invalid upon challenge, or others may claim rights in or ownership of our patents.      
We may be subject to intellectual property infringement claims, which could cause us to incur litigation costs and divert management attention from our business.

                Any intellectual property infringement claims against us, with or without merit, could be costly and time-consuming to defend and divert our management’s attention from our business. If our products were found to infringe a third party’s proprietary rights, we could be required to enter into costly royalty or licensing agreements in order to be able to sell our products. Royalty and licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all.

Our efforts to avoid the patent, trademark, and copyright rights of others may not provide notice to us of potential infringements in time to avoid investing in product development and promotion that must later be abandoned if suitable license terms cannot be reached.
     
There is no guarantee that our use of conventional technology searching and brand clearance searching will identify all potential rights holders. Rights holders may demand payment for past infringements and/or force us to accept costly license terms or discontinue use of protected technology and/or works of authorship that may include for example photos, videos, and software.

Defects in our products could reduce demand for our products and result in a loss of sales, delay in market acceptance and injury to our reputation.

Complex components and assemblies used in our products may contain undetected defects that are subsequently discovered at any point in the life of the product. Defects in our products may result in a loss of sales, delay in market acceptance and injury to our reputation and increased warranty costs.
 
 
To the extent demand for our products increase, our future success will be dependent upon our ability to ramp manufacturing production capacity.
 
We intend to begin marketing a new self-defense device. To the extent demand for that product, or other products we may develop, increases significantly in future periods, one of our key challenges will be to ramp up production capacity to meet sales demand, while maintaining product quality. We plan to use a contract manufacturer for all of our products. Our inability to meet any future increase in sales demand, access capital for inventory, may hinder growth or increase dilution.
 
Component shortages could result in our inability to produce volume to adequately meet customer demand. This could result in a loss of sales, delay in deliveries and injury to our reputation.
     
Single source components used in the manufacture of our products may become unavailable or discontinued. Delays caused by industry allocations, or obsolescence may take weeks or months to resolve. In some cases, parts obsolescence may require a product re-design to ensure quality replacement components. These delays could cause significant delays in manufacturing and loss of sales, leading to adverse effects significantly impacting our financial condition or results of operations.

Our dependence on foreign suppliers for key components of our products could delay shipment of our finished products and reduce our sales.
     
We anticipate depending on foreign suppliers for the delivery of certain components used in the assembly of our products. Due to changes imposed for imports of foreign products into the United States, as well as potential port closures and delays created by terrorist threats, public health issues or national disasters, we may be exposed to risk of delays caused by freight carriers or customs clearance issues for our imported parts. Delays caused by our inability to obtain components for assembly could have a material adverse effect on our revenues, profitability and financial condition.

We may experience a decline in gross margins due to rising raw material and transportation costs associated with a future increase in plastics prices.
     
A significant number of our raw materials are comprised of plastic based products, or incur some form of landed cost associated with transporting the raw materials or components to our facility. A significant rise in commodity prices could adversely impact our ability to sustain current gross margins, by increasing component pricing.

We face risks associated with rapid technological change and new competing products.
     
The technology associated with non-lethal devices is receiving significant attention and is rapidly evolving. While we anticipate having patent protection in key areas of our technology, it is possible that new non-lethal technology may result in competing products that operate outside our patent and could present significant competition for our products.

We may acquire assets or other businesses in the future.
 
We may consider acquisitions of assets or other business. Any acquisition involves a number of risks that could fail to meet our expectations and adversely affect our profitability. For example:
 
 
The acquired assets or business may not achieve expected results;
 
We may incur substantial, unanticipated costs, delays or other operational or financial problems when integrating the acquired assets;
 
We may not be able to retain key personnel of an acquired business;
 
Our management’s attention may be diverted; or
 
Our management may not be able to manage the acquired assets or combined entity effectively or to make acquisitions and grow our business internally at the same time.
 
If these problems arise we may not realize the expected benefits of an acquisition.
 
IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE RISKS, BUSINESSES ARE OFTEN SUBJECT TO RISKS NOT FORESEEN OR FULLY APPRECIATED BY MANAGEMENT.  
IN REVIEWING THIS MEMORANDUM POTENTIAL INVESTORS SHOULD KEEP IN MIND OTHER POSSIBLE RISKS THAT COULD BE IMPORTANT.

BUSINESS
 
Overview

In November 2010, following a reverse merger by and among us, G8 Acquisition Subsidiary, Inc. (our wholly-owned subsidiary) and Guardian 8 Corporation, a Nevada corporation, we changed the focus of our business plan.

Prior to the reverse merger with Guardian 8 Corporation in November of 2010, we operated under the name Global Risk and focused on the provision of investigative, technical IT, background, document verification, and data banks of security information and entered into the personal defense industry. This business plan was ultimately abandoned following its unsuccessful implementation. Following the merger, we assumed the business plan of Guardian 8 Corporation and entered into the personal defense industry. Concurrent with the effectiveness of the merger, we changed our name to “Guardian 8 Holdings” The result of the merger was that the former stockholders of Guardian 8 Corporation controlled approximately 95% of our outstanding shares of common stock. In addition, Guardian 8 Corporation was deemed to be the acquiring company for financial reporting purposes and the merger was accounted for as a reverse merger. All of our principal operations are conducted through Guardian 8 Corporation as our wholly owned subsidiary.

Guardian 8 Corporation was incorporated in Nevada on June 8, 2009 as Guardian 6 Corporation. In August 2009, we changed our name to Guardian 8 Corporation.

In June of 2009, concurrent with our incorporation, Charles “Andy” Ross, Jr., a former officer and director, agreed to transfer all rights, title and interest in and to all intellectual property rights he held in our device to us in exchange for $300,000 in cash and 19,000,000 shares of our common stock. From August of 2009 through September of 2010, Mr. Ross returned 4,500,000 shares of common stock to us for cancellation to assist in our fund raising efforts.

Recent Developments

In March of 2012 we announced the Pro V2. This model was developed in response to professional security guards seeking a robust design as well as highly functional tool for their duty belt. The Pro V2 will also be available to security conscious industries where staff safety is an ongoing priority.

Throughout the second half of 2012 and the first three quarters of 2013, we were focused on four main initiatives:

·  
raising capital to expand operations;
·  
transitioning from early prototype development into full scale manufacturing operations with our contract manufacturer;
·  
building our infrastructure to support product rollout; and
·  
developing our sales pipeline and distribution channel.

Our capital raise included components of debt and equity instruments.  The debt was primarily issued to related party participants to provide working capital between infusions of equity purchases through private placement offerings.  In total, we entered into notes totaling $562,500 in 2012; and $958,933 in 2013.  These notes included a three-year warrant provision, 12% interest on the outstanding principal, and were extended to ensure we had adequate cash flow until sufficient capital was raised through equity sales.  (Please refer to Part II, Note 6 for further detail).  We also raised approximately $2.0 million through the sale of a unit private placement offering through a registered broker/dealer.  (Please refer to Part II, Note 8 for details of the equity transactions).
 

Our production operations are outsourced to a Taiwan based entity that has established a successful reputation in the manufacture of mobile and electronic devices.  During 2013, this organization, assisted by our engineers and executives, transitioned the Pro V2 production of test and evaluation units to low rate initial production (LRIP) runs.  This enabled us to generate our first revenue through the sale of product and build inventory for anticipated 2014 sales.  As a result of achieving some initial sales, which we believe will continue to grow in the future periods, we transitioned from being a development stage entity to an operational entity for purposes of financial reporting.  In total, we recognized $43,619 in revenue for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

During 2013 we also made significant investments in personnel and systems that will continue as sales expand.  Specifically, we hired a Vice President of Customer Service, a sales team, administrative support, as well as contracted training staff to support product roll out.  We anticipate making additional strategic hires in 2014 to support our efforts in reaching our targeted markets.
 
During the year, we did add 350 leads to our contact database, initiated forty-six test and evaluation programs with strategic customers, and certified 52 trainers.  In addition, we attended five key trade shows within the Private Security and Hospital Security industries, and intend to continue making a presence at these type of events in the coming months.

During the first six months of 2014, the Company expanded its sales team to include regional representatives, as well as non-employee sales and training consultants.  These individuals were trained, and are now working to develop relationships with the potential leads identified in the Company’s database.  enduring the second quarter of 2014, the Company added one additional sales rep who will focus in the Atlantic region of the United States.
 
The Company also added William Clough to its Board of Directors, effective April 9, 2014 and Paul Hughes effective August 5, 2014.
 
During the first six months of 2014, the Company also initiated development efforts on the new consumer product, which is targeted for release in 2015.  During this period, the Company expensed $37,070 for these development efforts.

Primary Business Strategy
 
Guardian 8 develops and distributes a proprietary new class of non-lethal weapons to the professional security market.  This product was designed by the Company in response to demands from professional security guards seeking a more robust product as well as highly functional tool for their duty belt.

The Company went through several years of development with our targeted industry to ensure that the compliment of features included in our product, the Pro V2, would address the needs of the user.  This included several revisions of the platform before our final product was introduced in the second quarter of 2013.

During the third quarter of 2013, the Company received its first production units assembled by its contract manufacturing, and began shipping product for both evaluation by potential customers, and actual orders where revenue was recognizable for the period.  The Company also developed its user-training program, to include certification of individuals who passed the combination of classroom and tactical training exercises.  The first training classes were held in the third and fourth quarter of 2013, resulting in more than 52 certified instructors being readied for field deployment.

During the same period, the Company added strategic hires to begin promoting and selling product within its targeted market of private security and to expand the test and evaluation program introducing the Pro V2 to new customers.  This included personnel in Customer Service, Sales, and Technical service.
 

The Guardian 8 Pro V2 Device

The G8 Pro V2, and enhanced non-lethal (ENL) device is a product that combines a multitude of non-lethal technologies designed to help protect individuals from aggressors and assailants, while notifying law enforcement authorities and other stakeholders of the situation.

The G8 Pro V2 is a small, hand-held device that integrates a collection of non-lethal technologies including a: Laser Spotter, LED Strobe Light, Alerting Siren, Camera, Microphone, and O.C. Pepper Spray to give the user a single solution for effectively defending against aggressive subjects.
 
The unit’s risk mitigation capabilities are further enhanced through the patented use of Bluetooth® enabled emergency notification technology creating a command center communication link and incident recording capabilities.  Finally, the G8 Pro V2 is designed to support additional device customizations by modifying or disabling features through custom software according to any customer’s security & personnel policies and requirements.
 
In 2011, we received an ASIS Accolades “Security’s Best” Award for our first generation device, placing us among just ten companies to earn this coveted designation at the 2011 ASIS International professional security conference.

We are now focused on marketing our innovative and patented personal defense solution to professional security organizations, private professionals, along with the development of complimentary product lines for individuals and families.

The need for personal security is escalating due to heightened violence threatening our communities.  As a result, a growing number of products are appearing in the market place. Such devices range from weapons designed to inflict harm on an attacker to alarms designed to call attention to the situation at hand so as to dissuade an attacker from further aggression.

Although such devices are assumed to be effective, we believe it is desirable to have a device that presents a plurality of security functions allowing the user to defend against dangerous situations and communicate the impending situation through the deployment of one device.

In response to this perceived need, we have developed a new class of hand held security devices, the ENL which presents a multi-layered set of security features including pepper spray, images, recording, and audio alarms and communication with 9-1-1 or other preselected numbers. Such functions may either be initiated by the user or automatically activated during physical confrontations. The commercial model being released in 2013 resembles an intuitive pistol configuration enabling the user to better manipulate the device and control the available functions, as well as reduce the training requirements.
 
Additional significant objectives of the device are:

·  
to provide countermeasures that can momentarily incapacitate attackers and provide pain compliance;
·  
to activate audio and/or visual alarms so as to call attention to the altercation and/or frighten the attacker;
·  
to provide a laser pointing device that enables the user to accurately direct pepper-spray upon the attacker with a tracer substance to assist in subsequent identifications, as well as display a product warning prior to engagement;
·  
to provide a device that links with a cell phone using Bluetooth technology so as to automatically alert 9-1-1 and/or document audio messages, and audio and image recordings of the altercation;
·  
to provide a security device that transmits and/or documents the audio or visual recordings; and
·  
to provide a security device that provides a direct 2-way voice communication link with 9-1-1 or other preselected numbers.
 

Device Warranty
     
We offer a three month limited warranty on our device. If the device fails to operate properly for any reason during the warranty period, we will replace the device.

We also offer an additional one-year warranty for a fee.  The revenue derived from the one-year-warranties are deferred at the time of sale, and amortized monthly over the length of the term.  Devices returned during their warranty period will be replaced at no charge, if the return is the result of a manufacturing defect.  If the unit is no longer working as a result of damage to the device, we will charge a discounted replacement price depending on when the product was placed in service or for a flat replacement fee.  Our warranty fees are intended to cover the handling and repair costs and include a profit.  To account for warranty related expenses, we established appropriate reserves.  In addition, our contract manufacturer provides the Company with an overallotment of product to help offset any costs associated with manufacturing defects.

We believe these reserves are adequate, and that our policy will be attractive to our customers. In particular, it avoids disputes regarding the source or cause of any defect. Extended warranties which provide additional coverage beyond the limited warranty, ranging from one to four years are anticipated to be also offered for specified fees.

Sales and Marketing

U.S. Private Security Services Market

According to the U.S. Department of Labor, over 3.2 million Americans worked in the protective services industry as of May 2011, or nearly 4 times the 850,380 sworn police officers & investigators who work in professional law enforcement and are currently supported by the lethal/less-lethal weapons manufacturers.
 
The Justice Policy Institute (JPI) estimates that the U.S. spends more than $100 Billion annually on professional law enforcement, before the inclusion of expenditures on private security personnel. In 2007, approximately 77% of police spending was by local governments whose budgets and resources have been strained in recent years.
 
Professional Security Guarding Market
 
The Protective Services Industry includes individuals employed in prisons and correctional facilities (public & private), gaming surveillance officers, transit and railroad police, recreational protective service workers including fish and game wardens, along with over 1 million professional private security guarding officers.
 
Professional security guards are employed by a combination of contract security guarding companies and the private security departments of global corporations, organizations and institutions.
 
According to the American Society of Industrial Security (ASIS), 34.5% of companies outsource their security guarding requirements with contract security guard companies.
 
An additional 56.5% of the market is represented by “in-house” corporate or organizational security personnel, indicating that direct corporate security customers could provide an extremely attractive customer opportunity in the U.S.

The U.S. Department of Labor further predicts that the Professional Security Guarding market will demand more than 200,000 additional workers, growing by nearly 20% from 2010-2020, and representing 55% of projected total job creation within the Protective Services Industry.
 
 
According to The Freedonia Group, in 2009 the top 5 security guarding companies controlled 33% of the U.S. contract security market.  While this is indicative of a highly fragmented market, recent estimates of the largest 50 contract security companies reflect combined annual U.S. revenues of ~$10 billion and combined security officer personnel of nearly 350,000, indicating that a substantial market opportunity exists within a relatively concentrated target customer market.
 
Guardian 8 has established contacts with many of the largest security guarding companies which entail collaborative design, development and documentation efforts to ensure that the final product meets existing customer requirements for functionality and security.  As a result, Guardian 8 has not only identified these contract security providers as ideal launch customers, but has also made significant progress in establishing the value and significance of the G8 Pro V2 within this segment.
 
In addition, many of these companies employ tens of thousands more security guards internationally and consequently represent direct channels to a global professional user base in nearly every major market in the world.
 
As specific examples, G4S (Wackenhut) reports that they employ 125,000 security guards in the country of India alone, and Inter-Con Security employs over 25,000 security guards worldwide.
 
Total U.S. estimates of the number of contract security companies range from conservative figures of 8,000 in the U.S. to as many as 14,000 according to Robert H. Perry & Associates, pointing to an extremely large number of firms with fewer than 10 officers each.
 
According to 2009 Dun & Bradstreet research, contract security firms with 100 or more employees represented 69.0% of the industry employee base, while 70.8% of contract security firms had fewer than 10 employees.
 
While these firms may be more challenging to address with a direct internal sales & marketing approach, Guardian 8 has made preparations through a well-conceived online marketing and inbound sales system to capture smaller order lots and effectively train, service and support smaller organizations.
 
In addition, the market recognition already received by the G8 Pro V2 through the Company’s industry involvement, active participation and award winning innovation have driven more than 24,000 prospective customer contacts into their SalesForce.com registry.
 
Global Private Security Services Market
 
The global security services market as estimated by The Freedonia Group is projected to grow 7.4% annually and reach $214 Billion in 2014.  In addition, it is estimated that professional security officers outnumber law enforcement by a 10 to 1 ratio internationally
 
Guardian 8 has already received interest from more than 2 dozen dealers representing 18 foreign countries, with most prepared to purchase the product immediately for distribution abroad.  International interest includes indications of interest from Security Companies, Distributors and Executive Protection providers.
 
Guardian 8’s SalesForce.com database contains over 1,100 contacts who have expressed interest in purchasing G8 Pro V2 units as they become available to the marketplace.  Among these contacts are representatives from countries representing a remarkable degree of international reach for a development stage company and a promising market channel for reaching millions of professionals, and potentially tens of millions of consumers.
 
Based upon available market and industry data, estimates developed by L.A. Davis & Associates place the aggregate revenue opportunity based on the proposed retail unit price, to U.S. and International professionals and consumers at approximately $50 Billion.
 
 
A significant contributor to the magnitude of this opportunity is the diversity and size of established market applications.  Guardian 8’s innovative device appeals to security professionals across a broad range of industries, both domestically and internationally, and holds promise as a unique and effective personal defense device for consumers.

Retail Market

Sadly, violent crime in the U.S. is escalating. As a result, a sizable number of women in the United States will fall victim to a violent crime at some point in their lives. According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, aggravated assault accounted for 62.5% of the 1.3 million violent crimes committed in the U.S. in 2010. The reality of these statistics has created a sizable self-defense products and services market. Consumers have a bevy of options to protect themselves, including self-defense classes, alarms, lethal and nonlethal weapons, even cell phones. None of these options is perfect; most offer a singular means of defense that may or may not be appropriate, depending on the situation. A device that incorporates features to de-escalate a dangerous situation while also providing an effective means of defense would likely ease a clouded decision-making process.

One of the directives of the Law Enforcement Alliance of America (LEAA)—the nation’s largest nonprofit, nonpartisan coalition of law enforcement professionals—is to educate the public about the best ways to avoid violent crime. Rather than offer blanket advice to either resist or comply, LEAA advises those faced with a violent attack to analyze their options to the extent possible and then make a decision and act swiftly. The options include running away, calling for help (either other people nearby or 9-1-1 via cell phone), or fighting back. The LEAA adds this sobering reminder, “No matter what course of action you choose, if you are attacked by a violent criminal, there is always a chance you may be hurt or killed.” Unfortunately, whatever choice the victim makes—grabbing a cell phone, alarm or pepper spray—it could be the wrong choice. There are no easy answers when facing a potentially violent assault. A clear improvement, in our view, would be the ability to alarm others, notify 9-1-1, and discourage further aggression in a single device. Further, the ability to use a weapon at a distance significantly reduces risk to the victim.

We plan to approach the market on three fronts; (i) The Private Security Market, (ii) National Accounts, and (iii) the Retail Market. We are currently in discussion with several large private security firms about testing the product as well as support for training. We intend to begin discussions with potential National Accounts targets once the testing phase for our product has been completed.

United States Distribution

Initially we intend to focus on the professional and consumer defense market as our primary target. We are evaluating a number of go to market strategies for the product; including, security firms, direct sales, distributors, etc.

We intend to implement a variety of marketing initiatives to support sales of our device. We may produce an infomercial, if we maintain sufficient funds, which will air in initially in selected markets and if successful will target a nationwide campaign.

International Distribution

We intend to market and distribute our device in foreign markets through a network of distributors. For geographical and cultural reasons, it is anticipated that our distributors, when established, will usually have a territory defined by their country’s borders. These distributors will market our device where allowed by law. For foreign sales we may utilize an established distributor.  As of December 31, 2013, we had two international distributors contracted that had received initial product orders.
 
     
Manufacturing
     
We intend to outsource all of our component manufacturing and assembly at least for the foreseeable future. We currently are utilizing a reputable company based in Taiwan to manufacture our initial device; and we do not foresee any issues with locating additional manufacturers of our device if and when the time arises.

Competition

Our device is anticipated to compete with other defense devices such as electronic control devices, batons, clubs, and other non-lethal chemical sprays; such as those sold by companies as TASER® International, Armor Holdings, Inc., TigerLight, PepperBall Technologies, Kimber, Ruger and FN Herstal. The primary competitive factors in the private citizen market include a device’s cost, perceived liability, optionality, effectiveness, safety and ease of use. 
 
Regulation

United States Regulation
     
Our device will be subject to regulations; although we do not believe our device is considered to be a “firearm” by the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Therefore, no Federal firearms-related regulations will apply to the sale and distribution of our device within the United States.

We are also subject to environmental laws and regulations, including restrictions on the presence of certain substances in electronic products. Reference is made to Risk Factors, under the heading “Environmental laws and regulations subject us to a number of risks and could result in significant liabilities and costs”.
 
Pepper Spray Regulations

One important issue for us is the way our device will be categorized by various government agencies. How the U.S. government categorizes the device could limit where our device can be exported. Domestically, we will have to cope with regulations that pertain to the use of pepper spray devices at the state level.

While the laser-targeting functionality of our device may be restricted by government export laws for a limited number of countries, pepper spray is the only component of the device that can truly be considered a weapon. Pepper spray causes temporary blindness, pain, breathing problems and panic. When used excessively on someone with a pre-existing medical condition, it can, in rare cases, even result in death. As such, the self-defense product is restricted in some states and countries. The size of the pepper spray canister and the percentage of capsaicin are regulated by some states.

By comparison, many states ban electronic control devices (“ECDs”) from schools and courts, and some have additional restrictions such as limiting their use to homes and businesses or, as with handguns, requiring a concealed weapons permits to carry them in public. At the time of this report, Hawaii, US Virgin Islands, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey and the District of Columbia prohibit the use of ECDs by the general public. Unlike ECDs, pepper spray is regulated in only five states and the District of Columbia. These limited regulations restrict retailers by requiring a firearms identification card, in some cases, and by limiting the size of the canister and strength of the spray. The pepper spray regulatory environment is not anticipated to limit our efforts to market our device to the security guard market and should be only a slight headwind in the consumer market in the six states that regulate the product. In addition, we plan to develop a version of our device that does not incorporate pepper spray.
 

United States Export Regulation
    
Our product was recently classified EAR99, relatively unrestricted by the Department of Commerce (DOC). Accordingly, the export of our device will be regulated under export administration regulations and subject to export bans established by DOC to a limited set of restricted countries. We will be required to obtain export licenses from the DOC for all shipments to foreign countries other than Canada. The need to obtain these licenses may cause a delay in our shipments if we develop an international sales program.

Foreign Regulation
     
The U.S. Department of Defense, through its International Traffic in Arms regulation (ITAR), controls the exportation of defense products—the types of products exported and the countries to which they are exported. Pepper spray devices are exempt from this regulation, and our EAR99 classification affirms this view. Additionally, the Department of Commerce will require an export license for each country into which our device is sold and will most likely limit us from selling into the eight or so international markets for which our government has expressed human rights concerns. We expect, through distributors, to deal with specific regulatory issues on a country-by-country basis, which will likely lengthen the sales cycle for international sales.

Foreign regulations, which may affect our device, are numerous and often unclear. We intend to engage distributors who are familiar with the applicable import regulations in each foreign market we enter, if any. Restrictions may prohibit certain sales of our products in a number of countries. We intend to rely on the distributors to inform us of those countries where our device is prohibited or restricted.

Intellectual Property
     
We intend to protect our intellectual property with U.S. patents and trademarks.  As of December 31, 2013, we have received two US patents for design of the Pro V2 and the initial product.  The Pro V2 also has a design patent internationally via OHIM filing.  In addition to design patents, we have also had one US utility patent issued for the integration of our message playback via Bluetooth connectivity.  And, we have one additional US mechanical utility patent under review.

As of December 31, 2013, we also received notification that our trademark filing for the G8 logo was approved and is pending issue.

We intend to continuously assess whether and where to seek formal protection for particular innovations and technologies based on such factors as: the commercial significance of our operations and our competitors’ operations in particular countries and regions; our strategic technology or product directions in different countries; and the degree to which intellectual property laws exist and are meaningfully enforced in different jurisdictions.

Confidentiality agreements are used with employees, consultants and key suppliers to help ensure the confidentiality of our trade secrets. 

Research and Development
     
Since our inception, we have expensed approximately $1,575,000 on research and development. Our investment in research and development staff and equipment is anticipated to increase as our device gains market acceptance and we move into design and development of additional versions of our device or other products. Our return on this investment is intended to be realized over the long term, although new systems and technologies may have a more immediate impact on our business.
 
 
Employees

We currently have nine full-time employees; our CEO/president, C. Stephen Cochennet, and eight for Guardian 8 Corporation, Paul Hughes, Chief Operating Officer, Jose Rojas, Vice President of Customer Service, a lead engineer, a customer service representative, administrative support and three full time sales people. We also have engaged an interim CFO, Kathleen Hanrahan, on a part-time consulting basis. We also utilize the services of additional contract personnel as needed which include engineers and other technical professionals. We are currently managed by C. Stephen Cochennet, Kathleen Hanrahan and Paul Hughes with the assistance of our board of directors. We look to Mr. Cochennet, Ms. Hanrahan and Mr. Hughes for entrepreneurial, organizational and management skills. We have entered into employment agreements with Mr. Cochennet, Ms. Hanrahan and the four other key employees of Guardian 8 Corporation. We plan to continue to use consultants, legal and patent attorneys, design and mechanical engineers, engineers and accountants as necessary. We may hire marketing employees based on the projected size of the market and the compensation necessary to retain qualified sales employees. A portion of any employee compensation likely would include direct stock grants, or the right to acquire stock in the company, which would dilute the ownership interest of holders of existing shares of our common stock.
 
Legal Proceedings
 
We may become involved in various routine legal proceedings incidental to our business. However, to our knowledge as of the date of this prospectus, there are no material pending legal proceedings to which we are a party or to which any of our property is subject.
 
DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

Effective July 1, 2014, we relocated our principal executive office to 7432 E. Tierra Buena Lane, Suite 102, Scottsdale, Arizona  85260. Our new lease is for forty months, commencing on July 1, 2014 and ending on October 31, 2017.  The lease requires monthly payments of $5,988. We do not believe that we will need to obtain additional office space at any time in the foreseeable future until our business plan is more fully implemented.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, including the notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this report.
 
Overview
 
We were incorporated in Nevada on June 8, 2009 as Guardian 6 Corporation.  In August of 2009, we changed our name to Guardian 8 Corporation.  Our principle offices are located in Scottsdale, Arizona.  We were a development stage company from our inception through June 30, 2013, engaged in the design and introduction of a new category of personal security devices, Enhanced Non-Lethal Devices (ENL).  Our product, the Pro V2 incorporates a layered defensive approach to help security professionals and consumers protect themselves against personal attacks, while capturing critical images and audio recordings to defend against personal liability.
 
Effective November 30, 2010 we merged with Global Risk Management & Investigative Solutions (“Global Risk”), a public company, with its common stock registered with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.  We merged into a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of Global Risk, with Guardian 8 Corporation being the surviving corporation.  Post merger, Global Risk changed its name to Guardian 8 Holdings.
 
For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company was consolidated with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Guardian 8 Corporation.  All material intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.  Beginning July 1, 2013 as product revenues became sustainable, the Company transitioned from reporting as a development stage Entity to an operating entity.  As a result, the financial statements included in this filing have been presented accordingly.
 
 
Since inception, our team of engineers and executives has been focused on developing and patenting our first commercial product, (the Guardian 8 Pro V2) as well as the key functions that create market differentiation.  We have also been formalizing marketing and manufacturing strategies as well as building customer distribution channels in preparation for our first product launch into the Private Security Market.  

During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company received its first production units assembled by its contract manufacturer and shipped initial revenue totaling $43,619.  Included with these orders was the purchase of $1,650 of revenue associated with the sale of its one-year extended warranty. The Company has deferred this revenue, and is recognizing it over the twelve months covered by the warranty period.

 In 2013, key personnel were hired in the areas of Sales and Operations.  These hires include an experienced Vice President of Customer Service, a lead manufacturing engineer, and a Sales Manager.  We intend to expand our sales and marketing staff, as well as administrative support during the next few months enabling us to reach key customers and shorten the sales cycles.
 
During the first six months of 2014, the Company expanded its sales team to include regional representatives, as well as non-employee sales and training consultants.  These individuals were trained, and are now working to develop relationships with the potential leads identified in the Company’s database.  enduring the second quarter of 2014, the Company added one additional sales rep who will focus in the Atlantic region of the United States.
 
During the first six months of 2014, the Company also initiated development efforts on the new consumer product, which is targeted for release in 2015.  During this period, the Company expensed $37,070 for these development efforts.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 several accounting principles that we believe are key to the understanding of our financial statements. These important accounting policies require management’s most difficult, subjective judgments.
  
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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Net Loss Per Share

We adopted ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share” that requires the reporting of both basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. In accordance with ASC 260, any anti-dilutive effects on net income (loss) per share are excluded.
 
 
Going Concern

Our financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to locate sources of capital, and attain future profitable operations. Our management is currently initiating their business plan. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
It is the Company’s policy that revenues are recognized in accordance with ASC 605-10, “Revenue Recognition”.  The company therefore recognizes revenue from sales of product upon delivery to its customers where the amount is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. Cash payments received in advance will be recorded as deferred revenue.   Extended warranties will be recorded as deferred revenue and amortized according to the number of months included in service.  The Company recognized $43,619 in revenues for the year ended December 31, 2013.  There were no revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012. The Company recognized $19,012 and $3,124 in revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2013 and 2012. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, accounts payable and amounts due to related party.  Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are payable on demand.

Income Taxes

The Company follows ASC subtopic 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes” for recording the provision for income taxes.  ASC 740-10 requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled.  Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability each period.  If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.  Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change.
 
Principles of consolidation
 
For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company was consolidated with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Guardian 8 Corporation.  All material intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.
 
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances in non-interest bearing accounts and money-market accounts. The Company places its temporary cash investments with quality financial institutions.  At times such investments may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limit. The Company does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.  As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were cash equivalents of $305,649 and $41,855 respectively. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were cash equivalents of $3,046,445 and $305,649 respectively. 
 

Inventory

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company accepted the delivery of 3,192 units of its ProV2 from its contract manufacturer.  These deliveries were part of the Company’s initial release of 10,000 production units.  The terms for the purchase of the product required 50% prepayment at the time of order, and the remaining 50% to be paid prior to shipment to the United States.  In addition, as of June 30, 2014, the Company had prepaid its contract manufacturer approximately $287,278 toward the purchase of these units, and had 2,000 units that were in transit as of June 30, 2014, and were subsequently received.  We believe this inventory will be adequate to fulfill orders for the next twelve months.

Research and development costs

The Company expenses all costs of research and development as incurred. There are research & development costs included in other general and administrative expenses of $794,663 and $480,150 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 respectively. There are research and development costs included in other general and administrative expenses of $107,248 and $249,529 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 respectively. The Company intends to continue investing in the development of future products, including a new consumer product anticipated for market launch in 2015.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Major improvements are charged to the asset accounts while replacements, maintenance and repairs which do not improve or extend the lives of respective assets are expensed.

The Company depreciates its property and equipment for the financial reporting purposes using the straight-line method based on the following useful lives of the assets:

Recent Developments
 
We completed the initial design of the first product under development in 2011. We tested these prototypes through a number of different venues and collected feedback and input on suggested design changes. As a result, during the 2012 and 2013 fiscal years, we incorporated significant upgrades and modified the initial design to improve reliability, durability and efficiencies.   An initial run of 120 units of the new designed Pro V2 was produced in the second quarter enabling our Engineers to complete a comprehensive testing protocol to confirm tooling and the assembly processes performed by our contract manufacturer, and to enable our Sales Team to send initial units for customer review.   In late June of 2013, the product was released by our Engineers for production and customer sales.

In March of 2012 we filed with the Depository Trust Company (DTC) for electronic clearing of our common stock, with the assistance of C. K. Cooper & Company and Legent Clearing. We received DTC approval for electronic clearing on May 7, 2012.  Our board of directors intends to file a registration statement on Form S-1 to register 100% of the shares held by stockholders of record sometime in 2014. This is intended to make it easier and more efficient for our stockholders to trade our shares and brokerage firms to accept the shares for deposit.
 
On April 20, 2012, we appointed Kathleen Hanrahan, a current member of our board of directors, to serve as our interim chief financial officer. Ms. Hanrahan has extended the term of her agreement until such time as the Company finds a suitable replacement or, by the end of 2015.
 
  
On February 7, 2013, we filed a Form 8-A to register our common stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act.  Before this filing we were a voluntarily reporter under the Act and before November of 2010 were considered a “shell” company.  Therefore, our stockholders have been unable to rely on Rule 144 of the Act for the public sale of our securities.  Our stockholders will be able to rely on Rule 144 of the Act following the 90th day from filing of the Form 8-A described above.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, our CEO/president, C. Stephen Cochennet, along with two directors exchanged existing term notes along with accrued interest totaling $648,933 to three new unsecured notes, bearing interest at a rate of 12% per annum, which include a three-year warrant for every $1.00 of principal amount of each note, exercisable at $0.40 per share. All of the notes and related accrued interest were paid as of June 30, 2014.

We issued four additional notes payable to related parties, including our CEO, during the month of September 2013, totaling $375,000.  These notes were unsecured, all bearing interest at a rate of 12% per annum, and include a three-year warrant for every $1.00 of principal amount of each note, exercisable at $0.40 per share.  All of the notes payable and related accrued interest were paid as of June 30, 2014.

Also during the year ended December 31, 2013, we issued a note payable to a non-related party in the amount of $100,000.  This note was unsecured, bearing interest at a rate of 12% per annum, and included a three-year warrant for 100,000 shares of common stock, exercisable at $0.40 per share.  This note and related accrued interest were paid as of June 30, 2014.

The warrants issued with the note were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and bifurcated out of the note proceeds and recorded as additional paid in capital in the amount of $284,914.  The loan costs are being amortized over the life of the notes, which expire on April 30, 2014.  As of June 30, 2014, all loan costs were fully amortized.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, we agreed to sell 5,173,750 shares of common stock for $2,069,500, less private placement fees of $312,515.  We also issued 1,143,700 shares of common stock for compensation in the amount of $556,032, 1,039,819 shares of common stock in exchange for services in the amount of $421,016, 360,000 shares of common stock in exchange for $219,960, and had warrants to purchase 312,500 shares of common stock converted through the payment of $51,875 in cash, and a reduction of $35,000 in a related party note payable.
 
We entered into four employment and or consulting contracts, in which employees and consultants of the Company receive vested shares either at set times, or if the Company meets certain criteria in the respective time periods of their contract.  As of December 31, 2013, 1,338,200 common shares vested per these contracts, for a total expense of $640,637.  A total of 548,550 shares were owed but not issued as of December 31, 2013.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, revenue increased over the prior period, as additional production units became available for sale.  We also attended the ASIS conference in September 2013 where we initiated our training program and accepted new test and evaluation commitments from industry leaders in the Security market.  These trial units have not been recognized as revenue, but will be recorded as payment is received, or a purchase order documenting collectability is obtained.

On September 13, 2013, we received a Research Report (the “Report”) prepared by Steven Ralston, CFA (the “Analyst”) of Zacks Small-Cap Research. We assisted the Analyst in gathering information for the Report, however, the understanding between us and the Analyst calls for the Analyst to maintain full discretion to report his own opinion about our investment prospects and its desirability for both individual and institutional investors.
 

In May of 2013, we entered into a service agreement with Zacks Investment Research, Inc. for the distribution of the Zacks Small Cap Research Report and the use of Zacks Advanced Targeting Software, whereby Zacks has licensed us to use the web based software targeting programs owned by Zacks. We agreed to pay Zacks a fee of $18,000 over the twelve month term of the service agreement. Zacks Advanced Targeting Software is used for targeting Institutional Investors / Buy & Sell Side Contact Directories and accessing shareholder data and peer group holdings analysis.

On January 17, 2014, the Company entered into a revolving line of credit agreement with Cornerstone Bank, N.A.  The agreement provided for an aggregate of up to $700,000 (which was subsequently increased to $900,000 in April of 2014) at any time outstanding pursuant to a revolving line of credit and was to mature on January 16, 2015.  The agreement was secured by inventory, work in process, accounts receivable, letter of credit, and was personally guaranteed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer/President.  Borrowings carried an interest rate of 6% per annum, with monthly interest payments to be paid by the Company.  The line of credit was fully paid as of June 30, 2014.

As part of the agreement, the Company entered into a Letter of Credit Rights Control Agreement with F&M Bank & Trust Company.  Per this agreement, if the Company defaulted on the line of credit, F&M Bank & Trust Company would then be held liable from Cornerstone Bank, N.A. for the payment of the line of credit.  In addition, the Company would then owe the amount disbursed to F&M Bank & Trust Company.  This agreement ceased with the satisfactory payment of the debt outstanding.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company received three notes payable from related parties in the amount of $475,000, and one note payable from an unrelated party in the amount of $25,000.  All of the notes were unsecured, bearing interest at 12% per annum, and were due on July 15, 2014.  All notes also included a three-year warrant for each of $1.00 of principal included in the note.  All of the notes and related accrued interest were paid in full as of June 30, 2014.
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company issued 150,000 shares of its common stock, with an aggregate value of $76,500 for compensation.  The Company also issued 892,289 shares of its common stock, with an aggregate value of $409,010 for services.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company issued $7,000,000 of convertible senior secured debentures.  These debentures are all due on November 30, 2015, bear interest at a rate of 8%, and include one five-year warrant with a value of $0.60 per share for each dollar issued.

As part of these debentures, the company also incurred loan costs of $809,939.  The loan costs are being amortized over an 18-month period ending November 30, 2015.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we had revenues of $19,012 and $3,124, and corresponding costs of sales of $14,104 and $976, respectively associated with shipments of our commercial products.  

We generated net losses of $2,467,779 and $1,282,359 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Our losses for these periods included research and development costs related to our ProV2 and new consumer device of $107,248 and $249,529, as well as general and administrative expenses of $1,798,231 and $1,013,115 for the same six month periods.
 
We anticipate continued losses from operations until such time as we generate sufficient revenues through the sale of our device to cover both our cost of manufacturing, and sales, general and administrative expenditures.
 
Satisfaction of our cash obligations for the next 12 months.
 
Since inception, we have financed cash flow requirements through the issuance of common stock for cash and services, as well as both convertible and non-convertible term notes, and bank financing. From June of 2009 through June 30, 2014, we raised $3,024,485 through the sale of our common stock, $113,625 from the exercise of 371,250 warrants in conjunction with notes payable, $900,000 from a revolving bank line of credit agreement, and an additional $2,328,433 through the issuance of notes payable, net of $10,000 of principle payments, and the exercise of warrants through a $35,000 reduction in notes payable.  We also issued convertible senior secured debentures for a total of $7,000,000.  As of June 30, 2014, our cash balance was $3,046,445. Our plan for satisfying our cash requirements for the next twelve months is through the funds from additional offerings of our common stock, third party financings, and revenue generated through the sales of our products and training services.  We may not generate sufficient amounts of revenues to meet our working capital requirements. Consequently, we intend to make appropriate plans to ensure sources of additional capital in the future to fund growth and expansion through additional equity or debt financing or credit facilities.
 
As we continue to expand operational activities, we may continue to experience net negative cash flows from operations, pending receipt of revenues from our product sales, and will be required to obtain additional financing to fund operations through common stock offerings and debt borrowings, giving consideration to loans and working diligently to move sales ahead to the extent necessary to provide working capital.
 
We anticipate incurring operating losses over the next twelve months as we expand distribution, and invest in the development of our new consumer product. Our lack of operating history makes predictions of future operating results difficult to ascertain. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of development. Such risks include, but are not limited to, an evolving and unpredictable business model and the management of growth. To address these risks we must, among other things, implement and successfully execute our business and marketing strategy, continue to develop and upgrade technology and products, respond to competitive developments, and continue to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so can have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
 
As a result of our cash requirements and our lack of significant revenues, we anticipate continuing to issue common stock in exchange for loans and/or equity financing, which may have a substantial dilutive impact on our existing stockholders.

Summary of any product research and development that we will perform for the term of our plan of operation.
 
We expense all costs of research and development as incurred. There are research and development costs included in other general and administrative expenses of $107,248 and $249,529 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which included approximately $37,100 toward our new consumer device. We anticipate expending up to $500,000 on additional significant product research and development for our consumer device, the next program pending on our product road map.
 
 
In addition to investments in research and development expenditures, we have also retained the services of a patent attorney to assist us with the filing and protection of key utility applications, as well as future technologies to be incorporated in next generation products for the commercial security and consumer markets.  Costs associated with the filing of intellectual property has been capitalized and will be amortized over the 20-year life of the patents when issued.
 
Changes in the number of employees.
 
We have ten full-time employees, C. Stephen Cochennet, Chief Executive Officer, Paul Hughes, Chief Operations Officer, Jose Rojas, Vice President of Customer Support, our lead manufacturing engineer, four regional sales managers, a customer service representative, and one administrative support person for Guardian 8 Corporation. We utilize the services of several contract personnel, engineers and other professionals on an as needed basis. We are currently managed by C. Stephen Cochennet, Kathleen Hanrahan and Paul Hughes with the assistance of our board of directors. We look to Mr. Cochennet, Ms. Hanrahan and Mr. Hughes for entrepreneurial, organizational and management skills. We plan to continue to use consultants, legal and patent attorneys, design and mechanical engineers, engineers and accountants as necessary. We intend to continue hiring sales and operations employees in 2014 to facilitate go to market activities. A portion of any employee compensation likely would include direct stock grants, or the right to acquire common stock in the company, which would dilute the ownership interest of holders of existing shares of our common stock.
 
Expected purchase or sale of plant and significant equipment.
 
We anticipate investing significant resources in the purchase of a plant and equipment in the near future; as we will begin to scale production operations throughout 2014.

We had cash used by investing activities of $50,938 for the purchase of property and equipment for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
 
We had cash provided by financing activities of $5,876,067 for the six months ended June 30, 2014.  This included proceeds from notes payable to related parties of $475,000 proceeds from notes payable to unrelated parties of $25,000, proceeds from a line of credit with a bank of $900,000, and proceeds from the issuance of convertible senior secured debentures of $7,000,000.  These were offset by a repayment of notes payable to related parties of $1,498,933, repayment of notes payable to unrelated parties of $125,000, and the repayment of a line of credit with a bank of $900,000.
 
We had a net loss of $1,282,359 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  This included non-cash items such as stock issued for services of $67,500, stock issued for compensation of $205,459, and depreciation and amortization of $17,398.  We had cash used by an increase in prepaid expenses of $76,635, an increase in deposits on inventory of $43,136 and an increase in inventory of $12,839.  We had cash provided due to the increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $154,566, an increase in accrued interest of $23,901 and an increase in accrued payroll expenses of $151,440.
 
We had cash used by investing activities of $146,800 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, due to the purchase of property and equipment, and the Company’s website.

As we expand our activities, we may, and most likely will, continue to experience net negative cash flows from operations, pending receipt of revenues from product sales. Additionally we anticipate obtaining additional financing to fund operations through common stock offerings, repay the current debt obligations associated with the unconverted debentures, and to the extent available, obtain additional financing through either convertible or non-convertible notes payable, necessary to augment our working capital. We are also evaluating additional sources of inventory financing that may be available once orders for our product are received.

We anticipate that we will incur operating losses in the next twelve months.  Our lack of operating history makes predictions of future operating results difficult to ascertain.  Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of development, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving markets.  Such risks for us include, but are not limited to, an evolving and unpredictable business model and the management of growth.  To address these risks, we must, among other things, obtain a customer base, implement and successfully execute our business and marketing strategy, continually develop and upgrade our product, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel.  There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so can have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
 
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results or operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Executive Employment Agreements

CEO Employment Agreement
 
On March 4, 2013, the Registrant entered into an employment agreement with C. Stephen Cochennet, the Registrant’s chief executive officer and president. Mr. Cochennet’s employment agreement was approved by the governance, compensation and nominating committee of the board of directors of the Registrant.

In general, Mr. Cochennet’s employment agreement contains provisions concerning terms of employment, voluntary and involuntary termination, indemnification, severance payments, and other termination benefits, in addition to a non-compete clause and certain other perquisites, such as; long-term disability insurance, director and officer insurance, and a $1,500 per month insurance allowance to offset the cost of privately purchased medical insurance until such time as the Registrant obtains a group medical insurance program.

The original term of Mr. Cochennet’s employment agreement ran from January 1, 2013 until March 31, 2014. We are currently in the process of negotiating final terms for a new employment agreement with Mr. Cochennet.

Mr. Cochennet’s employment agreement provides for an initial annual base salary of $250,000, which may be adjusted by the governance, compensation and nominating committee or the board of directors of the Registrant. This base salary shall accrue from January 1, 2013 until the Registrant completes a financing raising a minimum of $2.0 million in gross funds.

In addition, Mr. Cochennet is eligible to receive annual short term incentive bonuses as determined by a review at the discretion of the Registrant’s board of directors or governance, compensation and nominating committee thereof.
 
Further, the Registrant granted Mr. Cochennet the opportunity to receive 750,000 shares of the Registrant’s common stock under the employment agreement.

Policies for Review and Approval of Related Party Transactions

In March of 2012, our board of directors adopted a Related Party Transaction Policy, which is designed to monitor and ensure the proper review, approval, ratification and disclosure of related party transactions. The policy applies to any transaction, arrangement or relationship (or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships) in which we were, are or will be a participant and the amount involved exceeds $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at year end for the last two completed fiscal years, and in which any related party had, has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Our board of directors must review, approve and ratify a related party transaction if such transaction is consistent with the Related Party Transaction Policy and is on terms, taken as a whole, which the board believes are no less favorable to us than could be obtained in an arms-length transaction with an unrelated third party, unless the board otherwise determines that the transaction is not in our best interests.

Director Independence

Our board of directors has affirmatively determined that Messrs. Miller, Edwards, Lambrecht and Nolton are independent directors, as defined by Section 803 of the American Stock Exchange Company Guide.
 

PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS

The following table presents information, to the best of G8’s knowledge, about the ownership of G8’s common stock on August 26, 2014 relating to those persons known to beneficially own more than 5% of G8’s capital stock and by G8’s directors and executive officers. The percentage of beneficial ownership for the following table is based on 40,842,560 shares of common stock outstanding.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and does not necessarily indicate beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under these rules, beneficial ownership includes those shares of common stock over which the stockholder has sole or shared voting or investment power. It also includes shares of common stock that the stockholder has a right to acquire within 60 days after Augsut 26, 2014 pursuant to options, warrants, conversion privileges or other right. The percentage ownership of the outstanding common stock, however, is based on the assumption, expressly required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, that only the person or entity whose ownership is being reported has converted options or warrants into shares of G8’s common stock.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

Common Stock
 
Our articles of incorporation authorizes the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of which 40,842,560 shares were outstanding as of August 27, 2014. Holders of common stock have no cumulative voting rights. Holders of shares of common stock are entitled to share ratably in dividends, if any, as may be declared, from time to time by the board of directors in its discretion, from funds legally available to be distributed. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the company, the holders of shares of common stock are entitled to share pro rata all assets remaining after payment in full of all liabilities. Holders of common stock have no preemptive rights to purchase our common stock. There are no conversion rights or redemption or sinking fund provisions with respect to the common stock. All of the outstanding shares of common stock are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
 
 
Preferred Stock
 
Our articles of incorporation authorizes the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share, of which no shares were outstanding as of the date of this prospectus. The preferred stock may be issued from time to time by the board of directors as shares of one or more classes or series. Our board of directors, subject to the provisions of our articles of incorporation and limitations imposed by law, is authorized to:
 
·  
adopt resolutions;
·  
to issue the shares;
·  
to fix the number of shares;
·  
to change the number of shares constituting any series; and
·  
to provide for or change the following:
o  
the voting powers;
o  
designations;
o  
preferences; and
o  
relative, participating, optional or other special rights, qualifications, limitations or restrictions, including the following:
§  
dividend rights, including whether dividends are cumulative;
§  
dividend rates;
§  
terms of redemption, including sinking fund provisions;
§  
redemption prices;
§  
conversion rights; and
§  
liquidation preferences of the shares constituting any class or series of the preferred stock.

In each of the listed cases, we will not need any further action or vote by the stockholders.

One of the effects of undesignated preferred stock may be to enable the board of directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a tender offer, proxy contest, merger or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of our management. The issuance of shares of preferred stock pursuant to the board of director’s authority described above may adversely affect the rights of holders of common stock. For example, preferred stock issued by us may rank prior to the common stock as to dividend rights, liquidation preference or both, may have full or limited voting rights and may be convertible into shares of common stock. Accordingly, the issuance of shares of preferred stock may discourage bids for the common stock at a premium or may otherwise adversely affect the market price of the common stock.

Convertible Senior Secured Debentures

On May 27, 2014, we, and our wholly-owned operating subsidiary, Guardian 8 Corporation (“G8”), entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, Registration Rights Agreements, Convertible Senior Secured Debentures, a Pledge and Security Agreement, a Secured Guaranty, a Class C Warrant and other related agreements (the “Financing Agreements”), with Wolverine Flagship Fund Trading Limited, Pinnacle Family Office Investments, L.P., CK Management, LLC, Atlas Allocation Fund, L.P., Calm Waters Partnership, Hard 4 Holdings LLC, Carl Feldman, Brett Luskin, Taylor Luskin and Cary Luskin (the “Buyers”).

On June 2, 2014, pursuant to the $7 Million Debenture Financing Agreements dated May 27, 2014 (attached as exhibits to the Form 8-K filed on May 28, 2014), we, and G8, entered into the remaining Convertible Senior Secured Debentures and Pledge and Security Agreement, with Southwell Capital, LP, Atlas Allocation Fund, L.P., Precept Capital Master Fund, GP, Sandor Capital Master Fund, The Precept Fund II, LP, James K. Price, Vestal Venture Capital, Helmsbridge Holdings Limited, JSL Kids Partners, Cranshire Capital Master Fund, Ltd., James G. Miller (current director), Jim Nolton (current director), Corey Lambrecht (current director), William Clough (current director), Kathleen Hanrahan (current officer and director), Kyle Edwards (current director) and C. Stephen Cochennet (current officer and director) (additional “Buyers”).
 
On June 13, 2014, Cranshire Capital Master Fund, Ltd. transferred $22,500 of its $75,000 Debenture to Equitec Specialists, LLC. Further, on August 26, 2014, Jim Nolton transferred his $20,000 Debenture to Nolton Enterprises.
 

Four of our board members converted $195,000 of the principal amount owed to them pursuant to the terms of outstanding term notes (C. Stephen Cochennet [$100,000], James G. Miller [$50,000], Jim Nolton [$20,000] and Corey Lambrecht [$25,000]) into Debentures.
 
Pursuant to the Financing Agreements, we authorized a new series of senior secured debentures (the “Debentures”). Under the terms of the Financing Agreements, the Buyer’s agreed to purchase and G8 agreed to sell Debentures for a total purchase price of $7,000,000. The Debentures have an eighteen month term and bear an interest rate equal to 8% per annum.

In connection with the sale of the Debentures, we agreed to issue the Buyers 7,000,000 Class C common stock purchase warrants, each warrant entitling the holder to purchase one share of our common stock at $0.60 per share for a period of five years (the “Closing Securities”).

Net Proceeds to us from the First Closing of the financing were $3,841,510.77, after payment of commissions, fees and expenses to our placement agent, Merriman Capital, Inc., of $439,979.23, $55,000 in attorney’s fees, $901,510 to repay the Cornerstone Bank line of credit and $12,000 in other fees and expenses. Net Proceeds to us from the Second Closing of the financing were $1,433,230, after payment of commissions, fees and expenses to our placement agents (Merriman Capital, Inc. of $107,100 and Noble Financial Capital Markets of $9,300), crediting conversion of current term notes of $195,000 and $5,370 in attorney’s fees.

The proceeds raised from the sale of the Debentures will be used for the repayment of short-term debt, including the Cornerstone Bank line of credit, sales and marketing, additional inventory, international sales channel development, research and development of a consumer ENL device, purchase of fixed assets and general corporate purposes.

The following describes certain material terms of the financing transaction with the Buyers.  The description below is not a complete description of all terms of the financing transaction and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Financing Agreements entered into in connection with the financing, which are attached as exhibits hereto.

Debenture Maturity Date and Interest Rate.  The Debentures mature on November 30, 2015, absent earlier redemption by the Registrant, and carry an interest rate of 8% per annum.

Payment of Interest and Principal.  Interest on the Debentures began accruing on May 27, 2014 and June 2, 2014, respectively, and is payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each succeeding quarter during the term of the Debentures, beginning on or about May 1, 2015 and ending on the Maturity Date of November 30, 2015.  We, under certain conditions specified in the Debentures, may pay interest payments in shares of our registered common stock. Additionally, on the Maturity Date if the Debentures have not been otherwise converted into shares of our common stock, we are required to pay the amount equal to the principal, as well as all accrued but unpaid Interest.

Conversion Rights under the Debenture. Subject to certain limitations, the Debentures may be converted by each Buyer commencing on the 91st day following closing and through Maturity, either in whole or in part, up to the full principal amount and accrued interest thereunder into shares of common stock at $0.50 per share.

Subject to certain limitations and conditions, we may force conversion of the Debentures into shares of common stock at $0.50 per share, either in whole or in part, if the closing sale price of shares of common stock during any ten consecutive trading days has been at or above $1.00 per share.

Further, in the event the average closing price of the common stock for the ten trading days immediately preceding, but not including, the maturity date of the Debentures is equal to or greater than $0.80, then on the maturity date, the Buyers must convert all remaining Principal due under the Debentures.

The Debentures contain provisions limiting the conversion to the extent that as a result of such conversion, each Buyer would beneficially own more than 4.99% (subject to waiver) in the aggregate of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock, calculated immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of the Debentures.
 

In addition, upon conversion of the Debentures, the number of Class C warrants issued to each Buyer shall automatically double.

Right to Redeem Debenture. Beginning on the 91st day following the closing and so long as a registration statement covering all the registrable securities is effective, we have the option of redeeming the principal, in whole or in part by paying the amount equal to 100% of the Principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest by giving ten (10) business days prior notice of redemption to the Buyers.

Security of Debentures. The Debentures were guaranteed, pursuant to the “Secured Guaranty” and “Pledge and Security Agreement” by G8 and secured by a security interest in all of our assets and G8 pursuant to various financing instruments, and financing statements.

Registration Rights.  We agreed to file a “resale” registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) covering all shares of common stock underlying the Debentures and Class C warrants within 90 days of the final closing under the Financing Agreements (the “Filing Date”) and to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement for five years, or until all securities have been sold or are otherwise able to be sold pursuant to Rule 144. We agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective within 120 days of the Filing Date (the “Effectiveness Date”). We are obligated to pay to investors liquidated damages equal to 1.0% per month in cash for every thirty day period up to a maximum of six (6%) percent, (i) that the registration statement has not been filed after the Filing Date, (ii) following the Effectiveness Date that the registration statement has not been declared effective; and (iii) as otherwise set forth in the Financing Agreements.
 
Additional Restrictions.  In addition to standard covenants and conditions such as the Registrant maintaining its reporting status with the SEC pursuant to the 1934 Act, the financing documents contain certain restrictions regarding our operations.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Each Selling Stockholder (the “Selling Stockholders”) of the securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on the OTC Bulletin Board, OTCQB or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions.  These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices.  A Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:
 
·  
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
 
·  
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
 
·  
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
 
·  
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
 
·  
privately negotiated transactions;
 
·  
settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;
 
·  
in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;
 
·  
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
 
·  
a combination of any such methods of sale; or
 
·  
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
 
The Selling Stockholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), if available, rather than under this prospectus.
 
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales.  Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.
 
In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume.  The Selling Stockholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities.  The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
 
 
The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales.  In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.  Each Selling Stockholder has informed us that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%).
 
Because Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder.  In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders have advised us that there is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale securities by the Selling Stockholders.
 
We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Parent to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect.  The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
 
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution.  In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of securities of the common stock by the Selling Stockholders or any other person.  We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).
 
We will pay all expenses of the registration of these shares, including, without limitation, Securities and Exchange Commission filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws; provided, however, that the Selling Stockholder will pay all underwriting discounts, commissions and concessions and brokers’ or agents’ commissions and concessions or selling commissions and concessions, if any.  We will indemnify the Selling Stockholder against liabilities, including some liabilities under the Securities Act, in accordance with a registration rights agreement we have with the Selling Stockholder, or the Selling Stockholder will be entitled to contribution.  We may be indemnified by the Selling Stockholder against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, that may arise from any written information furnished to us by the Selling Stockholder specifically for use in this prospectus, in accordance with a registration rights agreement we have with the Selling Stockholder, or we may be entitled to contribution.
 
Once sold under the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, these shares will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.
 
WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION
 
We have filed a registration statement on Form S-1 under the Securities Act with the SEC with respect to the common stock offered by this prospectus. This prospectus does not include all of the information contained in the registration statement or the exhibits and schedules filed therewith.

2013 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 
Stockholders and Directors
Guardian 8 Holdings
Scottsdale AZ

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Guardian 8 Holdings as of December 31, 2013 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2013.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audit 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 misstatements.  The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Guardian 8 Holdings as of December 31, 2013 and the consolidated results of its operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for year ended December 31, 2013 in conformity accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
The accompanying 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 has suffered losses from operations since its inception.  This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s 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.

Guardian 8 Holdings
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 – Company Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Organization

Guardian 8 Corporation (“Guardian 8”) was incorporated in Nevada on June 8, 2009 as Guardian 6 Corporation.  In August of 2009, the Company changed its name to Guardian 8 Corporation.  The Company’s principle offices are located in Scottsdale, Arizona.
 
Effective November 30, 2010, we merged with Global Risk Management & Investigative Solutions (“Global Risk”), a public company with its common stock registered with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Company merged into a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of Global Risk, with the Company being the surviving corporation.  Post merger, Global Risk changed its name to Guardian 8 Holdings.
 
Basis of presentation
 
Effective July 1, 2013 the Company transitioned from reporting as a development stage entity to an operating entity as revenues became sustainable with product sales.
 
Principles of consolidation
 
For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company was consolidated with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Guardian 8 Corporation.  All material intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.
 
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances in non-interest bearing accounts and money-market accounts. The Company places its temporary cash investments with quality financial institutions.  At times such investments may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limit. The Company does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.  As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were cash equivalents of $305,649 and $41,855 respectively. 

Revenue recognition

It is the Company’s policy that revenues are recognized in accordance with ASC subtopic 605-10, “Revenue Recognition”.  The company therefore recognizes revenue from sales of product upon delivery to its customers where the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. Cash payments received in advance are recorded as deferred revenue.  Extended warranties are recorded as deferred revenue and amortized according to the number of months in service.  Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $43,619.  There were no revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Warranty

The Company offers a 90-day limited warranty on its core product with an opportunity to upgrade to a one year limited warranty (for a fee) on the device.  These fees are intended to cover the handling and repair costs and include a profit.  One year extended warranties that provide additional coverage beyond the limited warranty are offered for specified fees.

Use of estimates

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

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Major improvements are charged to the asset accounts while replacements, maintenance and repairs which do not improve or extend the lives of respective assets are expensed.

The Company depreciates its property and equipment for the financial reporting purposes using the straight-line method based on the following useful lives of the assets: 
 
Tooling
10 years
Equipment
2 years
Leasehold improvements
Life of lease
Furniture and fixtures
5 years
                                                      
Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2013 and 2012. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, accounts payable and amounts due to related party.  Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are payable on demand.  See Note 11 for further details.

Impairment of long-lived assets

ASC 360, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of”, requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost-carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate.  The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of an asset by estimating the future new cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition.  If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value.  The Company did not have any impaired assets for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. 
 
Net loss per share

Net Loss per share is provided in accordance with ASC 260-10, “Earnings Per Share” that requires the reporting of both basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share.  Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.  In accordance with ASC 260-10, any anti-dilutive effects on net income (loss) per share are excluded.  For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the denominator in the diluted earnings per share computation is the same as the denominator for basic earnings per share due to the anti-dilutive effect of the warrants on the Company’s net loss.  Diluted earnings (loss) per share is not presented since the effect of the assumed conversion of warrants would have an anti-dilutive effect. Potential common shares as of December 31, 2013 that have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share amounted to 13,354,621 from warrants. Potential common shares as of December 31, 2012 that have been excluded from the computation of net loss per share amounted to 1,432,500 from warrants.
 
Income taxes
 
The Company follows ASC subtopic 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, for recording the provision for income taxes.  ASC 740-10 requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled.  Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability each period.  If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.  Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change.  See Note 12 for further details.
 
 
Recent pronouncements

The Company has evaluated all new accounting pronouncements as of the issue date of these financial statements and has determined that none have or will have a material impact on the financial statements or disclosures.

Note 2 – Going Concern

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  As of December 31, 2013, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $7,004,557, and the Company’s current liabilities exceed current assets by $577,454.
 
The Company’s activities since inception have been financially sustained by issuance of common stock and related party loans. The Company intends to raise additional funding to continue its operations through contributions from the current shareholders and stock issuance to other investors and to obtain a bank line of credit.
 
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital from the sale of common stock and, ultimately, the achievement of significant operating revenues.  The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be required should the Company be unable to recover the value of its assets or satisfy its liabilities.

Note 3 – Prepaid loan costs

During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company issued notes payable that include a three-year warrant for each $1.00 of principal covered in the notes.   The warrants are exercisable at $0.40 per share (See Note 6).  The warrants issued were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and bifurcated out of the note proceeds and recorded as additional paid in capital in the amount of $284,914.  The loan costs are being amortized over the life of the notes, which expire on April 30, 2014.  The balance in prepaid loan costs was $143,302 as of December 31, 2013.  There were no prepaid loan costs as of December 31, 2012.

Note 11 – Fair Value Measurements

The Company adopted ASC Topic 820-10 to measure the fair value of certain of its financial assets that are required to be measured on a recurring basis.  The adoption of ASC Topic 820-10 did not impact the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.  ASC Topic 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.  The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).  ASC Topic 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.  A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability.  The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820-10 are described below:
 
Level 1 – Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access.
 
Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
 
Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are supportable by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability.  The Company had no level three assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2013 or 2012; therefore, a reconciliation of the changes during the year is not shown. 
 
The following table presents a reconciliation of all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2012:

Note 12 – Income Taxes
 
The Company’s operations for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 resulted in losses, thus no income taxes have been reflected in the accompanying statements of operations.
 
The provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 consists of the following:

As of December 31, 2013 the Company has net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $4,549,000 which expire in the years 2029-2033.  These operating loss carry-forwards may be used to reduce future income taxes payable.  A valuation allowance has been recorded to reduce the net benefit recorded in the financial statements related to this deferred asset. The valuation allowance is deemed necessary as a result of the uncertainty associated with the ultimate realization of these deferred tax assets.  For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 the effective tax rate was 0% resulting from a 34% valuation allowance rate offsetting the statutory rate of 34%.
 

Below is a summary of deferred tax asset calculations as of December 31, 2013 based on a 34% income tax rate. Currently there is no reasonable assurance that the Company will be able to take advantage of a deferred tax asset. Thus, an offsetting allowance has been established for the deferred asset.

GUARDIAN 8 HOLDINGS
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 – Company Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Organization

Guardian 8 Corporation (“Guardian 8”) was incorporated in Nevada on June 8, 2009 as Guardian 6 Corporation.  In August of 2009, the Company changed its name to Guardian 8 Corporation.  The Company’s principle offices are located in Scottsdale, Arizona.
 
Effective November 30, 2010, we merged with Global Risk Management & Investigative Solutions (“Global Risk”), a public company with its common stock registered with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Company merged into a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of Global Risk, with the Company being the surviving corporation.  Post-merger, Global Risk changed its name to Guardian 8 Holdings.
 
Basis of presentation
 
Effective July 1, 2013 the Company transitioned from reporting as a development stage entity to an operating entity as revenues became sustainable with product sales.
 
Principles of consolidation
 
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, and for the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company was consolidated with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Guardian 8 Corporation.  All material intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.
 
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances in non-interest bearing accounts and money-market accounts. The Company places its temporary cash investments with quality financial institutions.  At times such investments may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limit. The Company does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.  As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were cash equivalents of $3,046,445 and $305,649 respectively. 

Revenue recognition

Revenues are recognized in accordance with ASC subtopic 605-10, “Revenue Recognition”.  The company recognizes revenue from sales of product upon delivery to its customers where the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. Cash payments received in advance are recorded as deferred revenue.  Extended warranties are recorded as deferred revenue and amortized according to the number of months in service.  Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were $19,012 and $3,124, respectively.

Warranty

The Company offers a 90-day limited warranty on its core product with an opportunity to upgrade to a one year limited warranty (for a fee) on the device.  These fees are intended to cover the handling and repair costs and include a profit.  One year extended warranties that provide additional coverage beyond the limited warranty are offered for specified fees. Revenue derived from the sale of extended warranties are deferred and amortized over the duration of the warranty period.  During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and year ended December 31, 2013 the, Company recorded $769 and $1,388 as deferred revenue, and had related warranty expense of $955 and $0, respectively.
 
Research and development costs

The Company expenses all costs of research and development as incurred. Research and development expenses included in general and administrative expenses totaling $107,248 and $249,529 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 respectively. 


Use of estimates

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

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Major improvements are charged to the asset accounts while replacements, maintenance and repairs which do not improve or extend the lives of respective assets are expensed.

The Company depreciates its property and equipment for the financial reporting purposes using the straight-line method based on the following useful lives of the assets: 
 
Equipment
2 years
Tooling
10 years
Computer equipment
3 years
Leasehold improvements
Life of lease
Furniture and fixtures
5 years
Warehouse equipment
10 years
                                                      
Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of June 30, 2014 and 2013. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and amounts due to related party.  Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are payable on demand.  See Note 13 for further details.

Impairment of long-lived assets

ASC 360, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of”, requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost-carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate.  The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of an asset by estimating the future new cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition.  If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value.  The Company did not have impaired assets during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. 
 
Net loss per share

Net Loss per share is provided in accordance with ASC 260-10, “Earnings Per Share” that requires the reporting of both basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share.  Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.  In accordance with ASC 260-10, any anti-dilutive effects on net income (loss) per share are excluded.  For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the denominator in the diluted earnings per share computation is the same as the denominator for basic earnings per share due to the anti-dilutive effect of the warrants on the Company’s net loss.  Diluted earnings (loss) per share is not presented since the effect would be anti-dilutive. Potential common shares as of June 30, 2014 that have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share amounted to 21,414,621 from warrants. Potential common shares as of June 30, 2013 that have been excluded from the computation of net loss per share amounted to 5,927,500 from warrants.
 
 
Income taxes

The Company follows ASC subtopic 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, for recording the provision for income taxes.  ASC 740-10 requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled.  Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability each period.  If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.  Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change.  See Note 14 for further details.

 Recent pronouncements

The Company has evaluated all new accounting pronouncements as of the issue date of these financial statements and has determined that none have or will have a material impact on the financial statements or disclosures.

Note 13 – Fair Value Measurements

The Company adopted ASC Topic 820-10 to measure the fair value of certain of its financial assets that are required to be measured on a recurring basis.  The adoption of ASC Topic 820-10 did not impact the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.  ASC Topic 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.  The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).  ASC Topic 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.  A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability.  The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820-10 are described below:
 
Level 1 – Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access.
 
Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
 
 
Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are supportable by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability.  The Company had no level three assets or liabilities as of June 30, 2014 or 2013; therefore, a reconciliation of the changes during the year is not shown. 

The following table presents a reconciliation of all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2014:

Note 14 – Income Taxes
 
The Company follows ASC subtopic 740-10 for recording the provision for income taxes.  ASC 740-10 requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled.  Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability each period.  If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.  Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change.
 
Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods.  Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of assets and liabilities to which they relate.  Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.

The Company’s operations for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 resulted in losses, thus no income taxes have been reflected in the accompanying statements of operations.
 
As of December 31, 2013, the Company had net operating loss carry-forwards that may be used to reduce future income taxes payable.  A valuation allowance has been recorded to reduce the net benefit recorded in the financial statements related to this deferred asset. The valuation allowance is deemed necessary as a result of the uncertainty associated with the ultimate realization of these deferred tax assets.

For financial reporting purposes, the Company has incurred a loss since inception to June 30, 2014.  Based on the available objective evidence, including the Company’s history of its loss, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company provided for a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at June 30, 2014. Further, management does not believe it has taken the position in the deductibility of its expenses that creates a more likely than not potential for future liability under the guidance of FIN 48.

Item 14.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers

None of our directors will have personal liability to us or any of our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director involving any act or omission of any such director since provisions have been made in our articles of incorporation limiting such liability. The foregoing provisions will not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or, which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under applicable Sections of the Nevada Revised Statutes, (iv) the payment of dividends in violation of Section 78.300 of the Nevada Revised Statutes or, (v) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
 
Our bylaws provide for indemnification of the directors, officers, and employees of Guardian 8 Holdings in most cases for any liability suffered by them or arising out of their activities as directors, officers, and employees of Guardian 8 Holdings if they were not engaged in willful misfeasance or malfeasance in the performance of his or her duties; provided that in the event of a settlement the indemnification will apply only when the board of directors approves such settlement and reimbursement as being for the best interests of the corporation. The Bylaws, therefore, limit the liability of directors to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law (Section 78.751).
 
Our officers and directors are accountable to us as fiduciaries, which means they are required to exercise good faith and fairness in all dealings affecting us. In the event that a stockholder believes the officers and/or directors have violated their fiduciary duties to us, the stockholder may, subject to applicable rules of civil procedure, be able to bring a class action or derivative suit to enforce the stockholder’s rights, including rights under certain federal and state securities laws and regulations to recover damages from and require an accounting by management. Stockholders who have suffered losses in connection with the purchase or sale of their interest in Guardian 8 Holdings in connection with such sale or purchase, including the misapplication by any such officer or director of the proceeds from the sale of these securities, may be able to recover such losses from us.
 
We have entered into identical indemnification agreements with each member of our board of directors and each of our executive officers (the “Indemnification Agreements”). The Indemnification Agreements provide that we will indemnify each such director or executive officer to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law if he or she becomes a party to or is threatened with any action, suit or proceeding arising out of his or her service as a director or executive officer.  The Indemnification Agreements also provide that we will advance, if requested by an indemnified person, any and all expenses incurred in connection with any such proceeding, subject to reimbursement by the indemnified person should a final judicial determination be made that indemnification is not available under applicable law. The Indemnification Agreements further provide that if we maintain directors’ and officers’ liability coverage, each indemnified person shall be included in such coverage to the maximum extent of the coverage available for our directors or executive officers.

Item 17.  Undertakings.
 
(a)           Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the Act”) 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 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the small business issuer of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the small business issuer 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, the small business issuer will, unless in the opinion of its 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.
 
(b)           The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
 
 
(i)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
 
 
(A)
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
 
 
(B)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth 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) and 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 Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;
 
 
(C)
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in this registration statement.
 
 
(ii)
That for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
 
(iii)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
 
 
(iv)
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, if the Registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract or sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
 
 
SIGNATURES
 
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the registrant has duly caused this Amended Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Scottsdale, State of Arizona, on the 23rd day of  October 2014.
