Guardian 8 Holdings
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2011

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, we changed our name to Guardian 8 Corporation.  Our principle offices are located in Overland Park, Kansas.  We are a development stage company in the process of developing a personal security device that incorporates countermeasures to help defend against personal attack.
 
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 under section 12g.  We 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.
 
As of June 30, 2011, we have had no revenues and have had only limited operations; therefore, we are classified as a development stage company.
 
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. There were no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
 
Revenue recognition
It is the Company’s policy that revenues will be recognized in accordance with ASC subtopic 605-10, “Revenue Recognition”.  The Company will therefore recognize 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 will be recorded as deferred revenue.   There were no revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011 or the year ended December 31, 2010.

Warranty
We intend to offer a one year limited warranty on our device.  After the warranty expires, if the device fails to operate properly for any reason, we intend to replace the device either at a discounted price depending on when the device was placed in service or for a flat fee.  These fees are intended to cover the handling and repair costs and include a profit.  Extended warranties which provide additional coverage beyond the limited warranty, ranging from one to four years, are anticipated to be offered for specified fees.

Research and Development costs
The Company expenses all costs of research and development as incurred. There are R&D costs included in other general and administrative expenses of $1,274 and $216,351 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010, 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 at 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.
 
 
4

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, 2011 and December 31, 2010. 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 7 for further details.

Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company reviews its long-lived assets periodically to determine potential impairment by comparing the carrying value of the long-lived assets with the estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets, including cash flows from disposition. Should the sum of the expected future cash flows be less than the carrying value, the Company would recognize an impairment loss. An impairment loss would be measured by comparing the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived assets and intangibles.  The Company recognized no impairment losses in the six months ended June 30, 2011 or the year ended December 31, 2010.

Loss per share
Loss per share is provided in accordance with ASC subtopic 260-10 (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128).  Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the earnings available to shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.  There were no securities or stock equivalents considered to be dilutive in the computation of loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2011 or the year ended December 31, 2010.

Dividends
We do not anticipate the payment of cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

Income Taxes
 
The Company follows ASC subtopic 740-10 (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109, “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.
 
Recent pronouncements
In January 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06 - Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This update provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that requires new disclosure as follows: 1) Transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2. A reporting entity should disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers. 2) Activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. In the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements (that is, on a gross basis rather than as one net number). This update provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that clarifies existing disclosures as follows: 1) Level of disaggregation. A reporting entity should provide fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities. A class is often a subset of assets or liabilities within a line item in the statement of financial position. A reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities. 2) Disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques. A reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. Those disclosures are required for fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. These disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years.  The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In February 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-9 - Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements. This update addresses certain implementation issues related to an entity’s requirement to perform and disclose subsequent-events procedures, removes the requirement that public companies disclose the date of their financial statements in both issued and revised financial statements. According to the FASB, the revised statements include those that have been changed to correct an error or conform to a retrospective application of U.S. GAAP. The amendment is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal year ending after June 15, 2010. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-29, Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations (Topic 805)—Business Combinations (ASU 2010-29), to improve consistency in how the pro forma disclosures are calculated. Additionally, ASU 2010-29 enhances the disclosure requirements and requires description of the nature and amount of any material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to a business combination. ASU 2010-29 is effective for us in fiscal 2011 and should be applied prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is after the effective date. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of the ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
In May, 2011, The FASB issued ASU 2011-4, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The objective of this amendment is to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S GAAP and IFRS. This amendment is to ensure that fair value has the same meaning in U.S. GAAP and IFRS and that their respective fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are the same. This guidance is effective for the first quarter of 2012. The Company does not expect that this authoritative guidance will have any material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
 
The Company has considered all new accounting pronouncements and has concluded that there are no new pronouncements that may have a material impact on results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows, based on current information.
 
Year end
The Company has adopted December 31 as its year end.
 
Note 2 - Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which contemplate continuation of the company as a going concern.  We have an accumulated deficit of $1,262,658 as of June 30, 2011. Our current assets exceeded our current liabilities by $119,282 as of June 30, 2011. In view of the matters described above, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon our continued operations, which in turn is dependent upon our ability to raise additional capital and obtain financing. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2010, we were able to raise $965,500 through Private Placement Memorandums.  See Note 5 for further details.
 
Note 3 - Notes payable
In January and February of 2010, we received short-term, non-interest bearing loans from four of our shareholders.  These loans totaled $10,000.  The loans were repaid in full in April of 2010.  No interest expense has been imputed or paid relating to these loans.

Note 4 - Patent and Due to Related Party
In June of 2009, concurrent with our incorporation, one of our officers and directors, agreed to transfer all rights, title and interest in the patent he held for a personal security device in exchange for 19,000,000 shares of our common stock and $300,000.  $25,000 was to be paid in July of 2009 and the rest was to be paid as funds became available from common stock sales.  Before the end of 2009, he returned 4,000,000 shares for cancellation in exchange for no consideration.  The patent has been valued at $10,365 which is the historical cost.  The value of the cash, note payable, and stock given exceeded the historical cost of the patent by $304,615.  This amount was recorded as a reduction of retained earnings.  The total cost of the patent is being amortized over the 20 year life of the patent.  Amortization costs were $258 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The $300,000 due to related party was paid (i) $25,000 in June of 2009, (ii) $131,500 in May of 2010, (iii) $115,750 was converted to 463,000 shares at $.25 per share in May of 2010, and (iiii) $27,750 in August of 2010 leaving no balance due as of December 31, 2010.  The issuance of stock for the debt was at the same price being offered in the private placement memo during May of 2010.

No interest expense has been imputed or paid relating to these amounts.

Note 5- Stockholder’s equity
The Company is authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock.  Both classes of stock have a par value of $0.001.
 
In June of 2009, concurrent with our incorporation, one of our officers and directors, agreed to transfer all rights, title and interest in the patent he held in the personal security device in exchange for 19,000,000 shares of our common stock and $300,000.  Before the end of 2009, he returned 4,000,000 shares for cancellation in exchange for no consideration.  During the year ended December 31, 2010, 500,000 more shares were returned for cancellation in exchange for no consideration.
 
In June of 2009, 4,000,000 shares were sold to four investors for a total purchase price of $100,000 or $0.025 per share.
 
In June of 2009, 2,000,000 shares were issued to an officer of the Company in exchange for his services as President and General Manager.  Those shares were valued at $0.025 per share and $50,000 was expensed as compensation.
 
In June of 2009, 150,000 shares were issued to an attorney in exchange for legal services.  Those shares were valued at $0.025 per share and $3,750 was expensed as legal expense.
 
In December of 2009, 100,000 shares were issued to a consultant in exchange for business development consulting services.  Those shares were valued at $0.25 per share and $25,000 was expensed as consulting expense.
 
As of December 31, 2009, there were 21,250,000 common shares outstanding and no preferred shares outstanding.

Note 7 - Fair Value Measurements
The Company adopted ASC Topic 820-10 to measure the fair value of certain of its financial assets 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.

·  
changes in U.S. GAAP or in the legal, regulatory and legislative environments in the markets in which we operate;

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
 
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements section included elsewhere in this report.

Recent Developments
 
On August 5, 2011, our common stock was cleared for trading on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol “GRDH”.

In July of 2011, we signed an OEM distribution agreement with Security Equipment Corporation in Fenton, Missouri, which markets pepper spray products under the “Sabre Red” name.

In May of 2011, the G8 unit was nominated for the ASIS International “Innovation of the Year”. ASIS is an organization that was founded in 1955 and represents more than 37,000 security professionals around the world.

We have completed the initial design and tooling for the first product under development. We have received three working prototypes and anticipate the receipt of several more working prototypes in the second quarter of 2011. We have tested these prototypes through a number of different venues and collected feedback and input on suggested design changes, as well as develop training manuals for use of the product. We anticipate receiving the second generation prototypes in mid September and presenting these working units at the ASIS convention September 18th in Orlando, Florida.  We anticipate taking orders for product at the convention and filling orders beginning in November of this year.
 
Results of Operations for Guardian 8 Corporation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010

We generated net losses of $89,255 and $144,395 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to net losses of $169,902 and $235,175 for the same periods in 2010. These losses accumulated to a total loss of $958,043 since our inception on June 8, 2009 through June 30, 2011. Our losses were generated from general and administrative expenses. We were able to negotiate a substantial reduction in our office lease in September of 2010 and reduced administrative and officer compensation, which were the primary reasons for the reduction in our net loss during the first six months of 2011.

We anticipate continued losses from operations until such time as we generate revenues through the sale of our device.

Satisfaction of our cash obligations for the next 12 months.

Since our inception in June of 2009 through June 30, 2011, we raised approximately $1,065,500 through the sale of our common stock.  As of June 30, 2011, our cash balance was $142,957. Our plan for satisfying our cash requirements for the next twelve months is through third party financing, and/or additional debt or equity financing. We anticipate sales-generated income during that same period of time, but may not generate sufficient amounts of revenues to meet our working capital requirements. Consequently, we intend to make appropriate plans to insure sources of additional capital in the future to fund growth and expansion through additional equity or debt financing or credit facilities.
 
Since inception, we have financed cash flow requirements through the issuance of common stock for cash and services. 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.
 
 
11
 
We anticipate incurring operating losses over the majority of 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. 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 revenues, we anticipate continuing to issue stock in exchange for loans and/or equity financing, which may have a substantial dilutive impact on our existing stockholders.
 
Going Concern
 
The financial statements included in this filing have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles that contemplate the continuance of G8 as a going concern. We may not have a sufficient amount of cash required to pay all of the costs associated with operating and marketing of our product. Management intends to use borrowings and security sales to mitigate the effects of cash flow deficits, however no assurance can be given that debt or equity financing, if and when required, will be available. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue existence.

Expected purchase or sale of plant and significant equipment.

We do not anticipate the purchase or sale of any plant or significant equipment; as such items are not required by us at this time.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since inception, we have financed our cash flow requirements through issuance of common stock and through June 30, 2011 had raised approximately $1,065,500 from two private placement offerings. Our cash balance as of June 30, 2011 was $142,957 and we anticipate this amount to satisfy our cash requirements through at least December 31, 2011. We have a monthly rent expense of $250 for our principal executive office and also pay our administrative support person approximately $2,000 per month for part time services. 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, to the extent available, or to obtain additional financing to the extent necessary to augment our working capital. We have also evaluated sources of inventory financing that will be implemented once we have orders for our product.

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.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Not applicable.
 
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures.
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, C. Stephen Cochennet, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Report.  Based on the evaluation, Mr. Cochennet concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely altering him to material information relating to us (including our consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in our periodic SEC filings.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
There has been no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
 
Internal control systems, no matter how well designed and operated, have inherent limitations.  Therefore, even a system which is determined to be effective cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected or prevented.  Our systems of internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
