Alternatively, residential solid waste collection services may be performed on a subscription basis, in which individual households or homeowners&#8217; or similar associations contract directly with us.&#160;&#160;In either case, the fees received for residential collection are based primarily on market factors, frequency and type of service, the distance to the disposal facility and the cost of disposal.</font></div>

In addition to increasing our ability to internalize the waste that our collection operations collect, using transfer stations reduces the costs associated with transporting waste to final disposal sites because the trucks we use for transfer have a larger capacity than collection trucks, thus allowing more waste to be transported to the disposal facility on each trip.&#160;&#160;</font></div>

In the St. Louis market, because we have integrated our network of collection, transfer and disposal assets, primarily using our own resources, we generate a steady, predictable stream of waste volume and capture an incremental disposal margin. As an additional benefit, we charge tipping fees to third-party collection service providers for the use of our transfer stations or landfills, providing a source of recurring revenue. We believe this internalization rate provides us with a significant cost advantage over our competitors, positioning us well to win additional profitable business through new customer acquisition and municipal contract awards.

Under current law, we could also be held liable for damage caused by conditions that existed before we acquired the assets or operations involved. This risk is of particular concern as we execute our growth strategy, partially though acquisitions, because we may be unsuccessful in identifying and assessing potential liabilities during our due diligence investigations. Further, the counterparties in such transactions may be unable to perform their indemnification obligations owed to us. Additionally, we could be liable if we arrange for the transportation, disposal or treatment of hazardous substances that cause environmental contamination, or if a predecessor owner made such arrangements and, under applicable law, we are treated as a successor to the prior owner.

These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Our financial statements would be affected to the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management&#8217;s judgment in its application. There are also areas in which management&#8217;s judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.</font></div>

Absent quoted market prices, the estimate of fair value is based on the best available information, including the results of present value techniques. In many cases, we contract with third parties to fulfill our obligations for final capping, closure and post closure. We use historical experience, professional engineering judgment and quoted and actual prices paid for similar work to determine the fair value of these obligations. We are required to recognize these obligations at market prices whether we plan to contract with third parties or perform the work ourselves.

During the year ended December&#160;31, 2015 we inflated these costs in current dollars until the expected time of payment using an inflation rate of 2.5%. We discounted these costs to present value using the credit-adjusted, risk-free rate effective at the time an obligation is incurred, consistent with the expected cash flow approach. Any changes in expectations that result in an upward revision to the estimated cash flows are treated as a new liability and discounted at the current rate while downward revisions are discounted at the historical weighted average rate of the recorded obligation. As a result, the credit-adjusted, risk-free discount rate used to calculate the present value of an obligation is specific to each individual asset retirement obligation. The weighted average rate applicable to our long-term asset retirement obligations at December&#160;31, 2015 is approximately 8.5%.</font></div>

The fair value of closure and post-closure obligations is developed based on our estimates of the airspace consumed to date for the entire landfill and the expected timing of each closure and post-closure activity. Because these obligations are measured at estimated fair value using present value techniques, changes in the estimated cost or timing of future final capping, closure and post-closure activities could result in a material change in these liabilities, related assets and results of operations.

The amount of settlement that is forecasted will take into account several site-specific factors including current and projected mix of waste type, initial and projected waste density, estimated number of years of life remaining, depth of underlying waste, anticipated access to moisture through precipitation or recirculation of landfill leachate, and operating practices. In addition, the initial selection of the AUF is subject to a subsequent multi-level review by our engineering group, and the AUF used is reviewed on a periodic basis and revised as necessary.

Most significantly, if it is determined that expansion capacity should no longer be considered in calculating the recoverability of a landfill asset, we may be required to recognize an asset impairment or incur significantly higher amortization expense.

In addition, the amendments supersede the cost guidance in Subtopic 605-35,&#160;Revenue Recognition&#8212;Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts,&#160;and create new Subtopic 340-40,&#160;Other Assets and Deferred Costs&#8212;Contracts with Customers.&#160;In summary, the core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This Accounting Standards Update is the final version of Proposed Accounting Standards Update 2011-230&#8212;Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and Proposed Accounting Standards Update 2011&#8211;250&#8212;Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Codification Amendments, both of which have been deleted. Accounting Standards Update 2014-09. The amendments in this Update are effectively for the Company for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period.&#160;The Company is currently evaluating the effects of ASU 2014-09 on the consolidated financial statements.</font></div>

In addition to increasing our ability to internalize the waste that our collection operations collect, using transfer stations reduces the costs associated with transporting waste to final disposal sites because the trucks we use for transfer have a larger capacity than collection trucks, thus allowing more waste to be transported to the disposal facility on each trip.&#160;&#160;</font></div>

In the St. Louis market, because we have integrated our network of collection, transfer and disposal assets, primarily using our own resources, we generate a steady, predictable stream of waste volume and capture an incremental disposal margin. As an additional benefit, we charge tipping fees to third-party collection service providers for the use of our transfer stations or landfills, providing a source of recurring revenue. We believe this internalization rate provides us with a significant cost advantage over our competitors, positioning us well to win additional profitable business through new customer acquisition and municipal contract awards.

With a landfill, transfer stations and collection services in place, we aim to provide vertically integrated operations that cover the substantial geographic area surrounding the landfill.

EPA that greenhouse gases are an &#8220;air pollutant&#8221; under the federal Clean Air Act and, thus, subject to future regulation.&#160;&#160;In a move toward regulating greenhouse gases, on December 15, 2009, the EPA published its findings that emission of carbon dioxide, methane and other greenhouse gases present an endangerment to human health and the environment because greenhouse gases are, according to EPA, contributing to climate change.&#160;&#160;On October 30, 2009, the EPA published the&#160;greenhouse gas reporting final rule, effective December 29, 2009, which establishes a new comprehensive scheme requiring certain specified industries as well as operators of stationary sources emitting more than established annual thresholds of carbon dioxide-equivalent greenhouse gases to inventory and report their greenhouse gas emissions annually.&#160;&#160;Municipal solid waste landfills are subject to the rule.&#160; In 2009, the EPA also proposed regulations that would require a reduction in emissions of greenhouse gases from motor vehicles.&#160; According to the EPA, the final motor vehicle greenhouse gas standards will trigger construction and operating permit requirements for stationary sources that exceed potential-to-emit (PTE) thresholds for regulated pollutants.&#160; As a result, the EPA has proposed to tailor these programs such that only large stationary sources, such as electric generating units, cement production facilities, and petroleum refineries will be required to have air permits that authorize greenhouse gas emissions.</font></div>

Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques (such as Black-Scholes model) are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of our </font><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">common stock. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income (expense) going forward will reflect the volatility in these estimates and assumption changes. Under the terms of this accounting standard, increases in the trading price of the Company&#8217;s common stock and increases in fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative expense. Conversely, decreases in the trading price of the Company&#8217;s common stock and decreases in trading fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative income.</font></div>

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits.</font></div>

For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open.

Absent quoted market prices, the estimate of fair value is based on the best available information, including the results of present value techniques. In many cases, we contract with third parties to fulfill our obligations for final capping, closure and post closure. We use historical experience, professional engineering judgment and quoted and actual prices paid for similar work to determine the fair value of these obligations. We are required to recognize these obligations at market prices whether we plan to contract with third parties or perform the work ourselves.

During the three months ended March 31, 2016 we inflated these costs in current dollars until the expected time of payment using an inflation rate of 2.5%. Accretion expense was approximately $42,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. We discounted these costs to present value using the credit-adjusted, risk-free rate effective at the time an obligation is incurred, consistent with the expected cash flow approach. Any changes in expectations that result in an upward revision to the estimated cash flows are treated as a new liability and discounted at the current rate while downward revisions are discounted at the historical weighted average rate of the recorded obligation. As a result, the credit adjusted, risk-free discount rate used to calculate the present value of an obligation is specific to each individual asset retirement obligation. The weighted average rate applicable to our long-term asset retirement obligations at March 31, 2016 is approximately 8.5%.</font></div>

Because these obligations are measured at estimated fair value using present value techniques, changes in the estimated cost or timing of future final capping, closure and post-closure activities could result in a material change in these liabilities, related assets and results of operations.

The AUF is established using the measured density obtained from previous annual surveys and is then adjusted to account for future settlement. The amount of settlement that is forecasted will take into account several site-specific factors including current and projected mix of waste type, initial and projected waste density, estimated number of years of life remaining, depth of underlying waste, anticipated access to moisture through precipitation or recirculation of landfill leachate, and operating practices. In addition, the initial selection of the AUF is subject to a subsequent multi-level review by our engineering group, and the AUF used is reviewed on a periodic basis and revised as necessary. Our historical experience generally indicates that the impact of settlement at a landfill is greater later in the life of the landfill when the waste placed at the landfill approaches its highest point under the permit requirements.</font></div>

No gain or loss was recognized on this transaction as the Company received equity equal to book value ($434,532) of the capitalized software in the exchange. This represents approximately 15% of the equity of MSTI and is reflected in the accompanying balance sheet as &#8220;investment in related party affiliate&#8221;. The Company's investment of 15% of the common stock of MSTI is accounted for under the equity method because the company exercises significant influence over its operating and financial activities. Significant influence is exercised because both Companies have a Board Member in common. Accordingly, the investment in MSTI is carried at cost, adjusted for the Company's proportionate share of earnings or losses.</font></div>

In selecting the appropriate technique, the Company considers, among other factors, the nature of the instrument, the market risks that it embodies and the expected means of settlement. For less complex derivative instruments, such as freestanding warrants, the Company generally use the Black-Scholes model, adjusted for the effect of dilution, because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including trading volatility, estimated terms, dilution and risk free rates) necessary to fair value these instruments. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques (such as Black-Scholes model) are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of our common stock. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income (expense) going forward will reflect the volatility in these estimates and assumption changes. Under the terms of this accounting standard, increases in the trading price of the Company&#8217;s common stock and increases in fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative expense. Conversely, decreases in the trading price of the Company&#8217;s common stock and decreases in trading fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative income.</font></div>

In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions.

The establishment of technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of the recoverability of these costs require considerable judgement by management with respect to certain external factors such as anticipated future revenue, estimated economic life and changes in software and hardware technologies. Amortization of the capitalized software development costs begins when the product is available for general release to customers. Capitalized costs are amortized over the remaining estimated economic life of the product. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company has capitalized costs associated with the development of several mobile science technology products and mobile apps that has not been placed into service. In 2015, the Company sold the software to a related party. Refer to the related party note below for further discussion.</font></div>

During the year ended December 31, 2015 we inflated these costs in current dollars until the expected time of payment using an inflation rate of 2.5%. We discounted these costs to present value using the credit-adjusted, risk-free rate effective at the time an obligation is incurred, consistent with the expected cash flow approach. Any changes in expectations that result in an upward revision to the estimated cash flows are treated as a new liability and discounted at the current rate while downward revisions are discounted at the historical weighted average rate of the recorded obligation. As a result, the credit-adjusted, risk-free discount rate used to calculate the present value of an obligation is specific to each individual asset retirement obligation. The weighted average rate applicable to our long-term asset retirement obligations at December 31, 2015 is approximately 8.5%.</font></div>

The AUF is established using the measured density obtained from previous annual surveys and is then adjusted to account for future settlement. The amount of settlement that is forecasted will take into account several site-specific factors including current and projected mix of waste type, initial and projected waste density, estimated number of years of life remaining, depth of underlying waste, anticipated access to moisture through precipitation or recirculation of landfill leachate, and operating practices. In addition, the initial selection of the AUF is subject to a subsequent multi-level review by our engineering group, and the AUF used is reviewed on a periodic basis and revised as necessary. Our historical experience generally indicates that the impact of settlement at a landfill is greater later in the life of the landfill when the waste placed at the landfill approaches its highest point under the permit requirements.</font></div>

We calculate per ton amortization rates for the landfill for assets associated with each final capping, for assets related to closure and post-closure activities and for all other costs capitalized or to be capitalized in the future. These rates per ton are updated annually, or more often, as significant facts change.</font></div>

To the extent that such estimates, or related assumptions, prove to be significantly different than actual results, lower profitability may be experienced due to higher amortization rates or higher expenses; or higher profitability may result if the opposite occurs. Most significantly, if it is determined that expansion capacity should no longer be considered in calculating the recoverability of a landfill asset, we may be required to recognize an asset impairment or incur significantly higher amortization expense. If at any time management makes the decision to abandon the expansion effort, the capitalized costs related to the expansion effort are expensed immediately.</font></div>

The interest rate swaps allow the Company to raise long-term borrowings at floating rates and swap them into fixed rates that are lower than those available if it borrowed at fixed rates directly. Under the interest rate swaps, the Company agrees with other parties to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed contract rates and floating rate interest amounts calculated by reference to the agreed notional principal amounts.</font></div>

The note accrues interest at the 1-month LIBOR plus 4.25%. In order to hedge interest rate risk, the Company entered into an interest rate swap for a notional amount of $5,414,634 at fixed rate of 4.75%. Under the swap agreement, the Company pays the fixed rate on the $5,414,634 notional </font>amount on a monthly basis, and receives the 1-month LIBOR plus 4.25% on a monthly basis. Payments are settled on a net basis, and the Company has effectively converted its variable-rate debt into fixed-rate debt with an effective interest rate of 4.75%. As discussed above, the debts to Comerica were paid off from the funding received from Praesidian. The net settlement amount of the interest rate swap as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $0 and $40,958, respectively.</font></div>

No gain or loss was recognized on this transaction as the Company received equity equal to book value ($434,532) of the capitalized software in the exchange. This represents approximately 15% of the equity of MSTI and is reflected in the accompanying balance sheet as &#8220;investment in related party affiliate&#8221;. The Company's investment of 15% of the common stock of MSTI is accounted for under the equity method because the company exercises significant influence, over its operating and financial activities. Significant influence is exercised because both Companies have a Board Member in common. Accordingly, the investment in MSTI is carried at cost, adjusted for the Company's proportionate share of earnings or losses.</font></div>

In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits.</font></div>

The interest rate swaps allow the Company to raise long-term borrowings at floating rates and swap them into fixed rates that are lower than those available if it borrowed at fixed rates directly. Under the interest rate swaps, the Company agrees with other parties to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed contract rates and floating rate interest amounts calculated by reference to the agreed notional principal amounts.</font></div>

In order to hedge interest rate risk, the Company entered into an interest rate swap for a notional amount of $5,634,146 at fixed rate of 4.75%. Under the swap agreement, the Company pays the fixed rate on the $5,634,146 notional amount on a monthly basis, and receives the 1-month LIBOR plus 4.25% on a monthly basis. Payments are settled on a net basis, and the Company has effectively converted its variable-rate debt into fixed-rate debt with an effective interest rate of 4.75%.

The securities were exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act because the issuance of such securities by the Company did not involve a &#8220;public offering,&#8221; as defined in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the transaction, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of securities offered. The Company did not undertake an offering in which it sold a high number of securities to a high number of investors. In addition, these shareholders had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act since they agreed to, and received, share certificates bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act. This restriction ensures that these securities would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a &#8220;public offering.&#8221; Based on an analysis of the above factors, the Company has met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.</font></font></div>

In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant 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 registrant 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 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.</font></div>

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This summary highlights certain information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. Because it is a summary, it may not contain all of the information that is important to you. Before investing in our common stock, you should read this entire prospectus carefully, especially the sections entitled "Risk Factors" beginning on page 8 and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" beginning on page 25, as well our financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. In this prospectus, the terms "Meridian Waste Solutions, Inc.," "Company," "we," "us" and "our" refer to Meridian Waste Solutions, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries.
Overview
Meridian Waste Solutions, Inc. (formerly Brooklyn Cheesecake & Desserts Company, Inc. hereafter referred to as the "Company" or "Meridian") is an integrated provider of non-hazardous solid waste collection, transfer and disposal services. We currently have all of our operations in Missouri but are actively looking to expand our presence across the Midwest, South and East regions of the United States.
Corporate Structure:
Customers
Meridian has two municipal contracts, the first of which accounted for 26% and 27% and the second of which accounted for 18% and 19% of the long term contracted revenue of Here to Serve Missouri Waste Division, LLC ("HTS Waste") for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 respectively.
Collection Services
Meridian, through its subsidiaries, provides solid waste collection services to approximately 65,000 industrial, commercial and residential customers in the Metropolitan St. Louis, Missouri area.  In 2015, its collection revenue consisted of approximately 17% from services provided to industrial customers, 13% from services provided to commercial customers and 70% from services provided to residential customers.
In our commercial collection operations, we supply our customers with waste containers of various types and sizes.  These containers are designed so that they can be lifted mechanically and emptied into a collection truck to be transported to a disposal facility.  By using these containers, we can service most of our commercial customers with trucks operated by a single employee.  Commercial collection services are generally performed under service agreements with a duration of one to five years with possible renewal options.  Fees are generally determined by such considerations as individual market factors, collection frequency, the type and volume or weight of the waste to be collected, the distance to the disposal facility and the cost of disposal.
1
Residential solid waste collection services often are performed under contracts with municipalities, which we generally secure by competitive bid and which give us exclusive rights to service all or a portion of the homes in these municipalities.  These contracts usually range in duration from one to five years with possible renewal options.  Generally, the renewal options are automatic upon the mutual agreement of the municipality and the provider; however, some agreements provide for mandatory re-bidding. Alternatively, residential solid waste collection services may be performed on a subscription basis, in which individual households or homeowners' or similar associations contract directly with us.  In either case, the fees received for residential collection are based primarily on market factors, frequency and type of service, the distance to the disposal facility and the cost of disposal.
Additionally, we rent waste containers and provide collection services to construction, demolition and industrial sites.  We load the containers onto our vehicles and transport them with the waste to either a landfill or a transfer station for disposal.  We refer to this as "roll-off" collection.  Roll-off collection services are generally performed on a contractual basis.  Contract terms tend to be shorter in length and may vary according to the customers' underlying projects.
Transfer and Disposal Services
Landfills are the main depository for solid waste within our marketplace.  Solid waste landfills are built, operated, and tied to a state permit under stringent federal, state and local regulations.  Currently, solid waste landfills in the United States must be designed, permitted, operated, closed and maintained after closure in compliance with federal, state and local regulations pursuant to Subtitle D of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended.  We do not operate hazardous waste landfills, which may be subject to even greater regulations.  Operating a solid waste landfill includes excavating, constructing liners, continually spreading and compacting waste and covering waste with earth or other inert material as required, final capping, closure and post-closure monitoring.  The objectives of these operations are to maintain sanitary conditions, to ensure the best possible use of the airspace and to prepare the site so that it can ultimately be used for other end use purposes.
Access to a disposal facility is a necessity for all solid waste management companies.  While access to disposal facilities owned or operated by third parties can be obtained, we believe that it is preferable to internalize the waste streams when possible.  Meridian is targeting further geographic, as well as operational expansion by focusing on markets with transfer stations and landfills available for acquisition.
Our transfer stations allow us to consolidate waste for subsequent transfer in larger loads, thereby making disposal in our otherwise remote landfills economically feasible.  A transfer station is a facility located near residential and commercial collection routes where collection trucks take the solid waste that has been collected.  The waste is unloaded from the collection trucks and reloaded onto larger transfer trucks for transportation to a landfill for final disposal.  Transfer stations are generally owned by municipalities, with contracts to operate such transfer stations awarded based on bids.  As an alternative to operating a transfer station directly, we could negotiate the use of a transfer station owned by a private party or operated by a competitor; however, due to synergies and more favorable rates, operating our own transfer station is more profitable. In addition to increasing our ability to internalize the waste that our collection operations collect, using transfer stations reduces the costs associated with transporting waste to final disposal sites because the trucks we use for transfer have a larger capacity than collection trucks, thus allowing more waste to be transported to the disposal facility on each trip.
Our Operating Strengths
Experienced Leadership
We have a proven and experienced senior management team.  Our Chief Executive Officer,  Jeffrey S. Cosman, and President and COO Walter H. Hall combine over 35 years of  experience in the solid waste industry, including significant experience in
local and regional operations, local and regional accounting,
mergers & acquisitions, integration and the development of disposal capacity. Members of our team have held senior positions at Republic Services, Advanced Disposal, Southland Waste Services and Brown Ferris Industries.   Our team has experience in the
implementation of strategic marketplace plans, sales, safety, acquisitions, and coordination of assets and personnel.
While our senior leadership team creates and drives our overall growth strategy, we rely on a decentralized management structure which does not interfere with local management which affords us the opportunity to capitalize on growth and cost reduction at the local level.
2
Vertically Integrated Operations
The vertical integration of our operations allows us to manage the waste stream from the point of collection through disposal, which we hope will enable us to maximize profit by controlling costs and gaining competitive advantages, while still providing high-quality service to our customers. In the St. Louis market, because we have integrated our network of collection, transfer and disposal assets, primarily using our own resources, we generate a steady, predictable stream of waste volume and capture an incremental disposal margin. As an additional benefit, we charge tipping fees to third-party collection service providers for the use of our transfer stations or landfills, providing a source of recurring revenue. We believe this internalization rate provides us with a significant cost advantage over our competitors, positioning us well to win additional profitable business through new customer acquisition and municipal contract awards. We also believe this vertically integrated structure enables us to quickly and efficiently integrate future acquisitions of transfer stations, collection operations or landfills into our current operations.
Landfill and Transfer Station Assets
We have one active and strategically located landfill at the core of our integrated operations which we believe provides us a significant competitive advantage in Missouri, in that we do not need to use our competitors' landfills. Our landfill has substantial remaining airspace, which will help us to sustain the long-term competitive advantages that our vertically integrated model provides.
The value of our landfill may be further enhanced by synergies associated with our vertically integrated operations, including our transfer stations, which enable us to cover a greater geographic area surrounding the landfill, and provide competitive advantages in that we would not need to use our competitors' landfills. In our experience there has generally been shift toward fewer, larger landfills has resulted in landfills that are generally located farther from population centers, with waste being transported longer distances between collection and disposal, typically after consolidation at a transfer station. With a landfill, transfer stations and collection services in place, we aim to provide vertically integrated operations that cover the substantial geographic area surrounding the landfill. In the event that non-renewal of our agreements for our transfer stations requires us to make arrangement with other transfer stations on less favorable terms, we would nevertheless benefit from the integration with our landfill operations.
Acquisition Integration and Municipal Contracts
Our business model contemplates our ability to execute and integrate value-enhancing, tuck-in acquisitions and win new municipal contracts as a core component of our growth. In the last six months since our acquisition of Christian Disposal, LLC and the Eagle Ridge Landfill, LLC Asset, we have completed two tuck-in acquisitions which we believe will improve or margins and improve cash flow.
As a management team, we have experience executing large-scale transactions by direct association with our historical success at Republic Services, Advanced Disposal and Browning Ferris Industries.   In addition to significantly expanding our scale of operations, the acquisitions of Christian Disposal, LLC and Eagle Ridge Landfill, LLC enhanced our geographic footprint by providing us with complementary operations throughout the state of Missouri. This has helped us realize cost efficiencies through improved internalization by virtue of increased route concentration and more efficient utilization of our assets.
Finally, our management team has demonstrated success in municipal contract bidding, as we have over 30 municipal contracts.
3
Long-Term Contracts
We serve approximately 65,000 residential, commercial and Construction & Industrial (C&I) customers, with no single customer representing more than 12% of revenue in 2015. Our municipal customer relationships are generally supported by contracts ranging from one to five years in initial duration with subsequent renewal periods, and we have a regular renewal rate with such customers. Our standard C&I service agreement is a five-year renewable agreement. We believe our customer relationships, long-term contracts and exceptional retention rate provide us with a high degree of stability as we continue to grow.
Customer Service
We maintain a central focus on customer service and we pride ourselves on trying to consistently exceed our customers' expectations.  We believe investing in our customer satisfaction will ultimately maximize customer loyalty price stability.
Commitment to Safety
The safety of our employees and customers is extremely important to us and we have a strong track record of safety and environmental compliance. We constantly review and assess our policies practices and procedures in order to create a safer work environment for our employees and to reduce the frequency of workplace injuries.
Our Growth Strategy
Growth of Existing Markets
We believe that as the residential population and number of businesses grow in our existing market, we will see waste volumes increase organically. We seek to remain active and alert with respect to the changing landscapes in the communities in which we already provide service in order obtain long-term contracts for collecting solid waste for residential collection, collection from municipalities, as well as collection from small and large commercial and industrial contracts. Obtaining long-term contracts will enable us to grow our revenue base at the same rate as the underlying economic growth in these markets. Furthermore, securing long-term contracts provides a significant barrier to entry from competitors in these markets.
Expanding into New Markets
Our operating model focuses on vertically integrated operations.  We continue to pursue a growth strategy that includes acquiring solid waste companies that complement our existing business. Our goal is to create market-specific, vertically integrated operations consisting of one or more collection operations, transfer stations and landfills.
As we expand, we plan to focus our business in the secondary markets where competition from national service providers is limited. We plan to start new market development projects in certain disposal-neutral markets in which we will provide services under exclusive arrangements with municipal customers, which facilitates highly-efficient and profitable collection operations. We believe this strategic focus positions us to maintain significant share within our target markets, maximize customer retention and benefit from a higher and more stable pricing environment.
Acquisition and Integration
Our revenue model is based on organic growth of operations, the acquisition of established operations in new markets as well as being able execute value-adding, tuck-in acquisitions.    We hope to direct acquisition efforts towards those markets in which in which we would be able to provide vertically integrated collection and disposal services and/or provide waste collection services, pursuant to contracts that grant exclusivity.  Prior to acquisition, we analyze each prospective target for cost savings through the elimination of inefficiencies and excesses that are typically associated with private companies competing in fragmented industries.  We aim to realize synergies from consolidating businesses into our existing operations, which we hope will allow us to reduce capital and expense requirements associated with truck routing, personnel, fleet maintenance, inventories and back-office administration.
4
Pursue Additional Exclusive Municipal Contracts
We intend to devote significant resources to securing additional municipal contracts. Our management team is well versed in bidding for municipal contracts with over 35 of experience and working knowledge in the solid waste industry and local service areas in existing and target markets. We hope to to procure and negotiate additional exclusive municipal contracts, allowing us to maintain stable recurring revenue but also providing a significant barrier to entry to our competitors in those markets.
Invest in Strategic Infrastructure
We will continue to invest in our infrastructure to support growth and increase our margins. We will invest resources toward its development and enhancement in order to increase our disposal capacity. Similarly, we will continue to evaluate opportunities to maximize the efficiency of our collection operations.

RISK FACTORS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the other financial information and consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing in this prospectus.  This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.  Our actual results will depend upon a number of factors beyond our control and could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements.  Some of these factors are discussed below and elsewhere in this prospectus.
Risks Related to Our Business and Industry
RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMPANY AND OUR INDUSTRY
WE ARE SUBJECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL AND SAFETY LAWS, WHICH RESTRICT OUR OPERATIONS AND INCREASE OUR COSTS.
We are subject to extensive federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to environmental protection and occupational safety and health.  These include, among other things, laws and regulations governing the use, treatment, storage and disposal of wastes and materials, air quality, water quality and the remediation of contamination associated with the release of hazardous substances.  Our compliance with existing regulatory requirements is costly, and continued changes in these regulations could increase our compliance costs. Government laws and regulations often require us to enhance or replace our equipment. We are required to obtain and maintain permits that are subject to strict regulatory requirements and are difficult and costly to obtain and maintain.  We may be unable to implement price increases sufficient to offset the cost of complying with these laws and regulations.  In addition, regulatory changes could accelerate or increase expenditures for closure and post-closure monitoring at solid waste facilities and obligate us to spend sums over the amounts that we have accrued. In order to develop, expand or operate a landfill or other waste management facility, we must have various facility permits and other governmental approvals, including those relating to zoning, environmental protection and land use. The permits and approvals are often difficult, time consuming and costly to obtain and could contain conditions that limit our operations.
WE MAY BECOME SUBJECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL CLEAN-UP COSTS OR LITIGATION THAT COULD CURTAIL OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND MATERIALLY DECREASE OUR EARNINGS.
The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, or CERCLA, and analogous state laws provide for the remediation of contaminated facilities and impose strict joint and several liability for remediation costs on current and former owners or operators of a facility at which there has been a release or a threatened release of a hazardous substance.  This liability is also imposed on persons who arrange for the disposal of and who transport such substances to the facility.  Hundreds of substances are defined as hazardous under CERCLA and their presence, even in small amounts, can result in substantial liability.  The expense of conducting a cleanup can be significant.  Notwithstanding our efforts to comply with applicable regulations and to avoid transporting and receiving hazardous substances, we may have liability because these substances may be present in waste collected by us.  The actual costs for these liabilities could be significantly greater than the amounts that we might be required to accrue on our financial statements from time to time.
In addition to the costs of complying with environmental regulations, we may incur costs to defend against litigation brought by government agencies and private parties.  As a result, we may be required to pay fines or our permits and licenses may be modified or revoked.  We may in the future be a defendant in lawsuits brought by governmental agencies and private parties who assert claims alleging environmental damage, personal injury, property damage and/or violations of permits and licenses by us.  A significant judgment against us, the loss of a significant permit or license or the imposition of a significant fine could curtail our business operations and may decrease our earnings.
8
OUR BUSINESS IS CAPITAL INTENSIVE, REQUIRING ONGOING CASH OUTLAYS THAT MAY STRAIN OR CONSUME OUR AVAILABLE CAPITAL AND FORCE US TO SELL ASSETS, INCUR DEBT, OR SELL EQUITY ON UNFAVORABLE TERMS.
Our ability to remain competitive, grow and maintain operations largely depends on our cash flow from operations and access to capital.  Maintaining our existing operations and expanding them through internal growth or acquisitions requires large capital expenditures.  As we undertake more acquisitions and further expand our operations, the amount we expend on capital will increase. These increases in expenditures may result in lower levels of working capital or require us to finance working capital deficits.  We intend to continue to fund our cash needs through cash flow from operations, equity and debt financings and borrowings under our credit facility, if necessary.  However, we may require additional equity or debt financing to fund our growth.
We do not have complete control over our future performance because it is subject to general economic, political, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors.  It is possible that our business may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations, and we may not otherwise have the capital resources, to allow us to make necessary capital expenditures.  If this occurs, we may have to sell assets, restructure our debt or obtain additional equity capital, which could be dilutive to our stockholders.  We may not be able to take any of the foregoing actions, and we may not be able to do so on terms favorable to us or our stockholders.
THE COMPANY'S FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN THE AGREEMENTS ENTERED INTO WITH GOLDMAN SACHS SPECIALTY LENDING GROUP, L.P. MAY RESULT IN THE FORECLOSURE OF THE COMPANY'S OR ITS SUBSIDIARIES' PLEDGED ASSETS AND OTHER ADVERSE CONSEQUENCES.
Effective December 22, 2015, the Company closed a Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") by and among the Company, Brooklyn Cheesecake & Dessert Acquisition Corp., Here to Serve - Missouri Waste Division, LLC, Here to Serve - Georgia Waste Division, LLC, Meridian Land Company, LLC, Christian Disposal, LLC, and FWCD, LLC, and certain subsidiaries of the Company, as Guarantors, the Lenders party thereto from time to time and Goldman Sachs Specialty Lending Group, L.P., as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, and Lead Arranger.
Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, Lenders have agreed to extend certain credit facilities to the Companies, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $55,000,000, consisting of $40,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Tranche A Term Loans (the "Tranche A Term Loans"), $10,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Multi-Draw Term Loans (the "MDTL Term Loans"), and up to $5,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Revolving Commitments (the "Revolving Commitments" and, together with the Tranche A Term Loans and the MDTL Term Loans, the "Loans"). The proceeds of the Loans are to be used as follows: (i) the proceeds of the Tranche A Term Loans shall be applied by Companies to (a) partially fund the acquisitions of Christian Disposal, FWCD and certain assets of Eagle Ridge Landfill, LLC, (b) refinance existing indebtedness of the Companies, (c) pre-fund certain capital expenditures, (d) pay fees and expenses in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement and (e) for working capital and other general corporate purposes; (ii) the proceeds of the Revolving Commitments will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes and (iii) the proceeds of the MDTL Term Loans will be used for acquisitions permitted under the Credit Agreement. The Loans are evidenced, respectively, by that certain Tranche A Term Loan Note, MDTL Note and Revolving Loan Note, all issued on December 22, 2015 (collectively, the "Notes"). Under the Notes and Credit Agreement, prepayments are subject to certain prepayment premiums, and payment obligations are subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of events of default under the Credit Agreement.
The Loans and other obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by a first position security interest in substantially all of the Company's and the Companies' assets in favor of the Collateral Agent, in accordance with that certain Pledge and Security Agreement dated as of December 22, 2015 (the "Pledge and Security Agreement").
In connection with the Credit Agreement, on December 22, 2015, the Company issued that certain Purchase Warrant for Common Shares to Goldman, Sachs & Co. (the "Warrant") for the purchase of shares of the Company's common stock equivalent to a 6.5% Percentage Interest (as such term is defined in the Warrant) at a purchase price equal to $449,553, exercisable on or before December 22, 2023. The Warrant grants the holder certain other rights, including registration rights, preemptive rights for certain capital raises, board observation rights and indemnification.
9
The Company's failure to comply with the obligations set forth in the Credit Agreement and related documents or the occurrence of certain other specified events could result in an event of default that, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of all or a substantial portion of our debt, potential foreclosure on our assets and other adverse consequences. Events of Default under the Credit Agreement include, without limitation, the Company's: failure to make payments when due, defaults under other agreements, breach of certain covenants or representations, bankruptcy, change of control and termination of a material contract.
For more detailed information with respect to the Credit Agreement and related documents please refer to Exhibit 4.2 hereof.
THE COMPANY'S FAILURE TO MAINTAIN CERTAIN LEVERAGE RATIOS SET FORTH IN THE CREDIT AGREEMENT HAS HISTORICALLY RESULTED IN, AND MAY CONTINUE TO RESULT IN, THE COMPANY BEING UNABLE TO DRAW DOWN ADDITONAL FUNDS PURSUANT TO THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, AND AS A RESULT, WE MAY NEED TO SEEK OTHER SOURCES OF CAPITAL, WHICH COULD BE ON LESS FAVORABLE TERMS .
Due to certain unanticipated delays in integration of landfill operations, including due to flooding in St. Louis area in December 2015, the Company has historically not been able to, and may continue not to be able to, maintain the leverage ratios set forth in the Credit Agreement. As a result, the Company will not be able to draw down additional funds pursuant to the Credit Agreement until such time as such leverage ratios comply with the requirements of the Credit Agreement. If the Company is unable to draw down additional funds pursuant to the Credit Agreement, it may be required to seek other sources of capital, and such capital may only be available on terms that are substantially less favorable than the terms of the Credit Agreement.
WE DEPEND ON A LIMITED NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS FOR OUR REVENUE.
At this time, the Company has two municipal contracts that account for 26% and 18% of our long term contracted revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. Because we depend on these customers for a majority of our revenue, a loss of one of these customers could materially adversely affect our business and financial condition. If these principal customers cease using our services, our business could be materially adversely affected.
GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITIES MAY ENACT CLIMATE CHANGE REGULATIONS THAT COULD INCREASE OUR COSTS TO OPERATE.
Environmental advocacy groups and regulatory agencies in the United States have been focusing considerable attention on the emissions of greenhouse gases and their potential role in climate change.  Congress has considered recent proposed legislation directed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions and President Obama has indicated his support of legislation aimed at reducing greenhouse gases.  The EPA has proposed rules to regulate greenhouse gases, regional initiatives have formed to control greenhouse gases and certain of the states in which we operate are contemplating air pollution control regulations that are more stringent than existing and proposed federal regulations, in particular the regulation of emissions of greenhouse gases.  The adoption of laws and regulations to implement controls of greenhouse gases, including the imposition of fees or taxes, could adversely affect our collection operations.  Changing environmental regulations could require us to take any number of actions, including the purchase of emission allowances or installation of additional pollution control technology, and could make some operations less profitable, which could adversely affect our results of operations.
OUR OPERATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY LAWS AND REGULATIONS, AS WELL AS CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS THAT MAY RESULT IN SIGNIFICANT LIABILITIES.
We risk incurring significant environmental liabilities in connection with our use, treatment, storage, transfer and disposal of waste materials. Under applicable environmental laws and regulations, we could be liable if our operations are found to cause environmental damage to our properties or to the property of other landowners, particularly as a result of the contamination of air, drinking water or soil. Under current law, we could also be held liable for damage caused by conditions that existed before we acquired the assets or operations involved. This risk is of particular concern as we execute our growth strategy, partially though acquisitions, because we may be unsuccessful in identifying and assessing potential liabilities during our due diligence investigations. Further, the counterparties in such transactions may be unable to perform their indemnification obligations owed to us. Additionally, we could be liable if we arrange for the transportation, disposal or treatment of hazardous substances that cause environmental contamination, or if a predecessor owner made such arrangements and, under applicable law, we are treated as a successor to the prior owner. Any substantial liability for environmental damage could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
10
OUR BUSINESS IS SUBJECT TO OPERATIONAL AND SAFETY RISKS, INCLUDING THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY TO EMPLOYEES AND OTHERS.
Providing environmental and waste management services, including operating landfills, involves risks such as vehicular accidents and equipment defects, malfunctions and failures. Additionally, there are risks associated with waste mass instability and releases of hazardous materials or odors. There may also be risks presented by the potential for subsurface chemical reactions causing elevated landfill temperatures and increased production of leachate, landfill gas and odors. Any of these risks could potentially result in injury or death of employees and others, a need to shut down or reduce operation of facilities, increased operating expense and exposure to liability for pollution and other environmental damage, and property damage or destruction.
While we seek to minimize our exposure to such risks through comprehensive training, compliance and response and recovery programs, as well as vehicle and equipment maintenance programs, if we were to incur substantial liabilities in excess of any applicable insurance, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. Any such incidents could also adversely impact our reputation and reduce the value of our brand. Additionally, a major operational failure, even if suffered by a competitor, may bring enhanced scrutiny and regulation of our industry, with a corresponding increase in operating expense.
INCREASES IN THE COSTS OF FUEL MAY REDUCE OUR OPERATING MARGINS.
The price and supply of fuel needed to run our collection vehicles is unpredictable and fluctuates based on events outside our control, including geopolitical developments, supply and demand for oil and gas, actions by OPEC and other oil and gas producers, war and unrest in oil producing countries, regional production patterns and environmental concerns.  Any significant price escalations or reductions in the supply could increase our operating expenses or interrupt or curtail our operations.  Failure to offset all or a portion of any increased fuel costs through increased fees or charges would reduce our operating margins.
CHANGES IN INTEREST RATES MAY AFFECT OUR PROFITABILITY.
Potential future acquisitions could require us to incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future, which will increase our interest expense.  Further, to the extent that these borrowings are subject to variable rates of interest, increases in interest rates will increase our interest expense, which will affect our profitability.  We bear exposure to, and are primarily affected by, changes in LIBOR rates.
INCREASES IN THE COSTS OF DISPOSAL MAY REDUCE OUR OPERATING MARGINS.
In 2015, we disposed of approximately 100% of the waste that we collect in landfills operated by others, and, even with our recent acquisition of a landfill, that rate may not decrease significantly in the immediate future.  We may incur increases in disposal fees paid to third parties.  Failure to pass these costs on to our customers may reduce our operating margins.  In December 2015, the Company purchased Eagle Ridge as part of its strategy to internalize a majority of its volume.  As of April 2016, the Company has begun to move its volume away from third party landfills.  Going forward, the Company may not internalize all of its volume in its own landfill, which may limit the expected savings it anticipated from the acquisition of Eagle Ridge.
11
INCREASES IN THE COSTS OF LABOR MAY REDUCE OUR OPERATING MARGINS.
We compete with other businesses in our markets for qualified employees.  A shortage of qualified employees would require us to enhance our wage and benefits packages to compete more effectively for employees or to hire more expensive temporary employees.  Labor is our second largest operating cost, and even relatively small increases in labor costs per employee could materially affect our cost structure.  Failure to attract and retain qualified employees, to control our labor costs, or to recover any increased labor costs through increased prices we charge for our services or otherwise offset such increases with cost savings in other areas may reduce our operating margins.
INCREASES IN COSTS OF INSURANCE WOULD REDUCE OUR OPERATING MARGINS.
One of our largest operating costs is maintaining insurance coverage, including general liability, automobile physical damage and liability, property, employment practices, pollution, directors and officers, fiduciary, workers' compensation and employer's liability coverage, as well as umbrella liability policies to provide excess coverage over the underlying limits contained in our primary general liability, automobile liability and employer's liability policies.  Changes in our operating experience, such as an increase in accidents or lawsuits or a catastrophic loss, could cause our insurance costs to increase significantly or could cause us to be unable to obtain certain insurance. Increases in insurance costs would reduce our operating margins.  Changes in our industry and perceived risks in our business could have a similar effect.
WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO MAINTAIN SUFFICIENT INSURANCE COVERAGE TO COVER THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR OPERATIONS, WHICH COULD RESULT IN UNINSURED LOSSES THAT WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION.
Integrated non-hazardous waste companies are exposed to a variety of risks that are typically covered by insurance arrangements.  However, we may not be able to maintain sufficient insurance coverage to cover the risks associated with our operations for a variety of reasons.  Increases in insurance costs and changes in the insurance markets may, given our resources, limit the coverage that we are able to maintain or prevent us from insuring against certain risks.  Large or unexpected losses may exceed our policy limits, adversely affecting our results of operations, and may result in the termination or limitation of coverage, exposing us to uninsured losses, thereby adversely affecting our financial condition.
OUR FAILURE TO REMAIN COMPETITIVE WITH OUR NUMEROUS COMPETITORS, SOME OF WHOM HAVE GREATER RESOURCES, COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO RETAIN EXISTING CUSTOMERS AND OBTAIN FUTURE BUSINESS.
Because our industry is highly competitive, we compete with large companies and municipalities, many of whom have greater financial and operational resources.  The non-hazardous solid waste collection and disposal industry includes large national, publicly-traded waste management companies; regional, publicly-held and privately-owned companies; and numerous small, local, privately-owned companies.  Additionally, many counties and municipalities operate their own waste collection and disposal facilities and have competitive advantages not available to private enterprises. If we are unable to successfully compete against our competitors, our ability to retain existing customers and obtain future business could be adversely affected.
WE MAY LOSE CONTRACTS THROUGH COMPETITIVE BIDDING, EARLY TERMINATION OR GOVERNMENTAL ACTION, OR WE MAY HAVE TO SUBSTANTIALLY LOWER PRICES IN ORDER TO RETAIN CERTAIN CONTRACTS, ANY OF WHICH WOULD CAUSE OUR REVENUE TO DECLINE.
We are parties to contracts with municipalities and other associations and agencies.  Many of these contracts are or will be subject to competitive bidding.  We may not be the successful bidder, or we may have to substantially lower prices in order to be the successful bidder.  In addition, some of our customers may terminate their contracts with us before the end of the contract term.  If we were not able to replace revenue from contracts lost through competitive bidding or early termination or from lowering prices or from the renegotiation of existing contracts with other revenue within a reasonable time period, our revenue could decline.
Municipalities may annex unincorporated areas within counties where we provide collection services, and as a result, our customers in annexed areas may be required to obtain service from competitors who have been franchised or contracted by the annexing municipalities to provide those services.  Some of the local jurisdictions in which we currently operate grant exclusive franchises to collection and disposal companies, others may do so in the future, and we may enter markets where franchises are granted by certain municipalities.  Unless we are awarded a franchise by these municipalities, we will lose customers which will cause our revenue to decline.
12
We are currently pursuing through a bidding process the renewal of an agreement to which we are currently party, for the operation of a transfer station, scheduled to expire in the fourth quarter of 2016. If we are not awarded renewal of this agreement, we will be forced to utilize other transfer stations which would cause our revenue to decline.
EFFORTS BY LABOR UNIONS TO ORGANIZE OUR EMPLOYEES COULD DIVERT MANAGEMENT ATTENTION AND INCREASE OUR OPERATING EXPENSES.
We do not have any union representation in our operations.  Groups of employees may seek union representation in the future, and the negotiation of collective bargaining agreements could divert management attention and result in increased operating expenses and lower net income.  If we are unable to negotiate acceptable collective bargaining agreements, we might have to wait through "cooling off" periods, which are often followed by union-initiated work stoppages, including strikes.  Depending on the type and duration of these work stoppages, our operating expenses could increase significantly.
POOR DECISIONS BY OUR REGIONAL AND LOCAL MANAGERS COULD RESULT IN THE LOSS OF CUSTOMERS OR AN INCREASE IN COSTS, OR ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO OBTAIN FUTURE BUSINESS.
We manage our operations on a decentralized basis.  Therefore, regional and local managers have the authority to make many decisions concerning their operations without obtaining prior approval from executive officers.  Poor decisions by regional or local managers could result in the loss of customers or an increase in costs, or adversely affect our ability to obtain future business.
WE ARE VULNERABLE TO FACTORS AFFECTING OUR LOCAL MARKETS, WHICH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR STOCK PRICE RELATIVE TO OUR COMPETITORS.
Because the non-hazardous waste business is local in nature, our business in one or more regions or local markets may be adversely affected by events and economic conditions relating to those regions or markets even if the other regions of the country are not affected.  As a result, our financial performance may not compare favorably to our competitors with operations in other regions, and our stock price could be adversely affected by our inability to compete effectively with our competitors.
SEASONAL FLUCTUATIONS WILL CAUSE OUR BUSINESS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS TO VARY AMONG QUARTERS, WHICH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR STOCK PRICE.
Based on historic trends experienced by the businesses we have acquired, we expect our operating results to vary seasonally, with revenue typically lowest in the first quarter, higher in the second and third quarters, and again lower in the fourth quarter.  This seasonality generally reflects the lower volume of waste during the winter months.  Adverse weather conditions negatively affect waste collection productivity, resulting in higher labor and operational costs.  The general increase in precipitation during the winter months increases the weight of collected waste, resulting in higher disposal costs, as costs are often calculated on a per ton basis.  Because of these factors, we expect operating income to be generally lower in the winter months.  As a result, our operating results may be negatively affected by these variations.  Additionally, severe weather during any time of the year can negatively affect the costs of collection and disposal and may cause temporary suspensions of our collection services.  Long periods of inclement weather may interfere with collection operations and reduce the volume of waste generated by our customers.  Any of these conditions can adversely affect our business and results of operations, which could negatively affect our stock price.
13
WE ARE DEPENDENT ON OUR MANAGEMENT TEAM AND DEVELOPMENT AND OPERATIONS PERSONNEL, AND THE LOSS OF ONE OR MORE KEY EMPLOYEES OR GROUPS COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS AND PREVENT US FROM IMPLEMENTING OUR BUSINESS PLAN IN A TIMELY MANNER.
Our success depends substantially upon the continued services of our executive officers and other key members of management, particularly our chief executive officer, Mr. Jeffrey S. Cosman. From time to time, there may be changes in our executive management team resulting from the hiring or departure of executives. Such changes in our executive management team may be disruptive to our business. We are also substantially dependent on the continued service of our existing development and operations personnel because of the complexity of our service and technologies. We have an employment agreement with Mr. Cosman. We maintain key person life insurance policy on Mr. Cosman. The loss of one or more of our key employees or groups could seriously harm our business.
WE HAVE IDENTIFIED A LACK OF ADEQUATE SEGREGATION OF DUTIES AND ABSENCE OF AN AUDIT COMMITTEE AS A MATERIAL WEAKNESS IN OUR INTERNAL CONTROLS, WHICH COULD CAUSE STOCKHOLDERS AND PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS TO LOSE CONFIDENCE IN THE RELIABILITY OF OUR FINANCIAL REPORTING.
We currently have limited segregation of duties among our officers and employees with respect to the preparation and review of financial statements, which is a material weakness in internal controls. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in the company's financial reporting that could harm the trading price of our shares, if a trading market does develop.
The company has identified limited segregation as a material weakness in the company's internal controls. We intend to remedy this material weakness by hiring additional employees and reallocating duties among employees, including responsibilities for financial reporting, as soon as we have available sufficient resources and personnel. However, until such time, this material weakness will continue to exist.
WE NEED ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO DEVELOP OUR BUSINESS.
The development of our services will require the commitment of substantial resources to implement our business plan. In addition, substantial expenditures will be required to enable us to complete projects in the future.  Currently, we have a credit agreement with Goldman Sachs Specialty Lending Group.  However, it is likely we would need to seek additional financing through subsequent future private or public offerings of our equity securities or through strategic partnerships and other arrangements with corporate partners.
We cannot give you any assurance that any additional financing will be available to us, or if available, will be on terms favorable to us.  The sale of additional equity securities will result in dilution to our stockholders.  The occurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. If adequate additional financing is not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to implement our business development plan or continue our business operations.
RISKS RELATED TO OWNERSHIP OF OUR COMMON STOCK
THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK IS LIKELY TO BE VOLATILE AND COULD SUBJECT US TO LITIGATION.
14
The market price of our common stock has been and is likely to continue to be subject to wide fluctuations. Factors affecting the market price of our common stock include:
●
variations in our operating results, earnings per share, cash flows from operating activities, deferred revenue, and other financial metrics and non-financial metrics, and how those results compare to analyst expectations;
●
issuances of new stock which dilutes earnings per share;
●
forward looking guidance to industry and financial analysts related to future revenue and earnings per share;
●
the net increases in the number of customers and paying subscriptions, either independently or as compared with published expectations of industry, financial or other analysts that cover our company;
●
changes in the estimates of our operating results or changes in recommendations by securities analysts that elect to follow our common stock;
●
announcements of technological innovations, new services or service enhancements, strategic alliances or significant agreements by us or by our competitors;
●
announcements by us or by our competitors of mergers or other strategic acquisitions, or rumors of such transactions involving us or our competitors;
●
announcements of customer additions and customer cancellations or delays in customer purchases;
●
recruitment or departure of key personnel; and
●
trading activity by a limited number of stockholders who together beneficially own a majority of our outstanding common stock.
In addition, if the stock market in general experiences uneven investor confidence, the market price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, operating results or financial condition. The market price of our common stock might also decline in reaction to events that affect other companies within, or outside, our industries even if these events do not directly affect us. Some companies that have experienced volatility in the trading price of their stock have been the subject of securities class action litigation. If we are to become the subject of such litigation, it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management's attention and resources.
THE OWNERSHIP BY OUR CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK WILL LIKELY LIMIT YOUR ABILITY TO INFLUENCE CORPORATE MATTERS.
Mr. Jeffrey S. Cosman, our chief executive officer, is the beneficial owner of 100% of the outstanding shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock. As a result, our chief executive officer would have significant influence over most matters that require approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions, even if other stockholders oppose them. In addition, Mr. Cosman beneficially owns approximately 49% of our issued and outstanding common stock. This concentration of ownership might also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of our company that other stockholders may view as beneficial.
OUR COMMON STOCK IS CURRENTLY ELIGIBLE FOR QUOTATION ON THE OTCQB OPERATED BY OTC MARKETS GROUP, INC. AND AN INVESTOR'S ABILITY TO TRADE OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE LIMITED BY TRADING VOLUME.
The trading volume in our common shares has been relatively limited.  A consistently active trading market for our common stock may not develop on the OTCQB.  The average daily trading volume in our common stock on the OTCQB as of April 14, 2016 was limited or negligible. Accordingly, the ability of our shareholders to sell their shares of our common stock may be extremely limited.
WE ARE SUBJECT TO PENNY STOCK RULES WHICH WILL MAKE THE SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK MORE DIFFICULT TO SELL.
We are currently subject to the SEC's "penny stock" rules because our shares of common stock sell below $5.00 per share.  Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 per share.  The penny stock rules require broker-dealers to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market.  The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.  The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to completing the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation.
15
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction the broker dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction.  The penny stock rules are burdensome and may reduce purchases of any offerings and reduce the trading activity for shares of our common stock.  As long as our shares of common stock are subject to the penny stock rules, the holders of such shares of common stock may find it more difficult to sell their securities.
THERE MAY BE RESTRICTIONS ON YOUR ABILITY TO RESELL SHARES OF COMMON STOCK UNDER RULE 144.
Currently, Rule 144 under the Securities Act permits the public resale of securities under certain conditions after a six or twelve month holding period by the seller, including requirements with respect to the manner of sale, sales volume restrictions, filing requirements and a requirement that certain information about the issuer is publicly available. At the time that stockholders intend to resell their shares under Rule 144, there can be no assurances that we will be subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") or, if so, current in our reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, in order for stockholders to be eligible to rely on Rule 144 at such time. In addition to the foregoing requirements of Rule 144 under the federal securities laws, the various state securities laws may impose further restrictions on the ability of a holder to sell or transfer the shares of Common Stock
.
SALES OF OUR CURRENTLY ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING STOCK MAY BECOME FREELY TRADABLE PURSUANT TO RULE 144 AND MAY DILUTE THE MARKET FOR YOUR SHARES AND HAVE A DEPRESSIVE EFFECT ON THE PRICE OF THE SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK
A substantial majority of our outstanding shares of common stock are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.  As restricted shares, these shares may be resold only pursuant to an effective registration statement or under the requirements of Rule 144 or other applicable exemptions from registration under the Act and as required under applicable state securities laws.  Rule 144 provides in essence that an Affiliate (as such term is defined in Rule 144(a)(1)) of an issuer who has held restricted securities for a period of at least six months (one year after filing Form 10 information with the SEC for shell companies and former shell companies) may, under certain conditions, sell every three months, in brokerage transactions, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of a company's outstanding shares of common stock or the average weekly trading volume during the four calendar weeks prior to the sale (the four calendar week rule does not apply to companies quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board).  Rule 144 also permits, under certain circumstances, the sale of securities, without any limitation, by a person who is not an Affiliate of the Company and who has satisfied a one-year holding period. A sale under Rule 144 or under any other exemption from the Act, if available, or pursuant to subsequent registrations of our shares of common stock, may have a depressive effect upon the price of our shares of common stock in any active market that may develop.
YOU MAY EXPERIENCE DILUTION OF YOUR OWNERSHIP INTEREST BECAUSE OF THE FUTURE ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND BECAUSE OF OUR PREFERRED STOCK AND OUTSTANDING WARRANTS.
In the future, we expect to issue our authorized but previously unissued equity securities in connection with future financing, resulting in the dilution of the ownership interests of our present stockholders.  We are currently authorized to issue an aggregate of 80,000,000 shares of capital stock, which includes 4,928,829 shares of blank check preferred stock, par value $0.001, for which the designations, rights and preferences may be established by the Board.
16
We may also issue additional shares of our common stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for common stock in connection with hiring or retaining employees or consultants, future acquisitions, future sales of our securities for capital raising purposes, or for other business purposes.  The future issuance of any such additional shares of our common stock or other securities may create downward pressure on the trading price of our common stock.  There can be no assurance that we will not be required to issue additional shares, warrants or other convertible securities in the future in conjunction with hiring or retaining employees or consultants, future acquisitions, future sales of our securities for capital raising purposes or for other business purposes, including at a price (or exercise prices) below the price at which shares of our common stock are trading.
There are currently 71,120 shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding, which may be converted into Common Stock using the "Conversion Formula" set forth in the Series B Preferred Stock Certificate of Designations, which is equal to the Original Issue Price divided by 75% of the average closing bid price of the Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive trading days ending on the trading day of the receipt by the Company of the applicable notice of conversion.
In connection with the Credit Agreement the Company issued in favor of Goldman, Sachs & Co. a Purchase Warrant for Common Shares, dated December 22, 2015 (the "GS Warrant").  The GS Warrant may be converted by the holder, at any time until December 22, 2023, into the number of shares of Common Stock that, after giving effect to conversion of the GS Warrant, is equal to a 6.5% ownership interest in the Company calculated on a fully-diluted basis, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Warrant.
In connection with subscriptions pursuant to a private placement offering during 2016, the Company granted "true-up" rights with respect to subscription agreements in the aggregate amount of $1,600,000,  with such agreements providing that the Company shall issue additional shares of Common Stock in the event that, prior to the first anniversary of such subscription agreement, an investor sells all of the Common Stock purchased under such subscription agreement and receives less than the full amount of the purchase price paid under such subscription agreement.
.
In connection with subscriptions pursuant to a second private placement offering during 2016, the Company issued warrants to purchase Common Stock (the "Private Placement Warrants"). In the event that, for a six-month period beginning six months from the date of such a subscription (subject to extension under certain circumstances), one or more of such subscribers were to sell all shares of Common Stock purchased by such subscriber pursuant to such offering and fail to receive proceeds equal to or in excess of the aggregate purchase price paid by such subscriber for such shares, such subscriber could exercise the Private Placement Warrant, requiring the Company to, at its election, (i) issue to such subscriber the number of shares of Common Stock equivalent to amount by which such purchase price exceeds such sale proceeds, valued at the average closing price for the Common Stock on the primary trading market on the three (3) trading days preceding the date of exercise or (ii) redeem such shortfall amount in cash. The Private Placement Warrants may be exercised more than once each, in the event that sale proceeds, including shares issued pursuant to a Private Placement Warrant, continue to fall short of the original purchase price and the Company has not elected to redeem such Private Placement Warrant for cash.
POSSIBLE ADVERSE EFFECT OF ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED STOCK
Our Restated Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, of which 4,928,829 shares are available for issuance, with designations, rights and preferences as determined from time to time by the Board of Directors. As a result of the foregoing, the Board of Directors can issue, without further shareholder approval, Preferred Stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of Common Stock.  The issuance of Preferred Stock could, under certain circumstances, discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of the Company.
17
WE DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY DIVIDENDS ON OUR COMMON STOCK AND INVESTORS SHOULD NOT BUY OUR COMMON STOCK EXPECTING TO RECEIVE DIVIDENDS.
We have not paid any dividends on our common stock in the past, and do not anticipate that we will declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future.  Consequently, investors will only realize an economic gain on their investment in our common stock if the price appreciates.  Investors should not purchase our common stock expecting to receive cash dividends. Because we do not pay dividends on our common stock, and there may be limited trading, investors may not have any manner to liquidate or receive any payment on their investment.  Therefore, our failure to pay dividends may cause investors to not see any return on investment even if we are successful in our business operations.  In addition, holders of our Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to dividends at a rate of 12% of their original issue price (as set forth in the Certificate of Designations, the "Original Issue Price") per share per annum, which dividends are payable prior and in preference to any payment of dividend on our common stock.  Because we do not pay dividends on our common stock, we may have trouble raising additional funds, which could affect our ability to expand our business operations.
IF THE COMPANY WERE TO DISSOLVE OR WIND-UP, HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON STOCK WOULD NOT RECEIVE A LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE.
If we were to wind-up or dissolve our company and liquidate and distribute our assets, our common stockholders would share in our assets only after we satisfy any amounts we owe to our creditors and preferred equity holders.  Our Series B preferred equity holders are entitled receive, in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, prior and in preference to any distribution to holders of our common stock, an amount per share equal to the sum of $100 and any accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B preferred stock. If our liquidation or dissolution were attributable to our inability to profitably operate our business, then it is likely that we would have material liabilities at the time of liquidation or dissolution.  Accordingly, we may not have sufficient assets available after the payment of our creditors and preferred equity holders to enable you to receive any liquidation distribution with respect to any common stock you hold.
18
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The information contained in this registration statement, including in the documents incorporated by reference into this registration statement, includes some statements that are not purely historical and that are forward-looking statements."  Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our and our management's expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future, including our financial condition and results of operations.

The Selling Security Holders cannot assure that all or any of the shares offered in this prospectus will be issued to, or sold by, the Selling Security Holders.  In addition, the Selling Security Holders and any brokers, dealers or agents, upon effecting the sale of any of the shares offered in this prospectus are underwriters" as that term is defined under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or the rules and regulations under such acts.  In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.
Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, attributable to the sale of shares will be borne by a Selling Security Holder. The Selling Security Holders may agree to indemnify any agent, dealer or broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving sales of the shares if liabilities are imposed on that person under the Securities Act.
The Selling Security Holders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus after we have filed an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or any other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of Selling Security Holders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as a Selling Security Holder under this prospectus.
The Selling Security Holders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus and may sell the shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus after we have filed an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of Selling Security Holders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as a Selling Security Holder under this prospectus.
We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares of common stock.  Otherwise, all discounts, commissions or fees incurred in connection with the sale of our common stock offered hereby will be paid by the Selling Security Holders.

We will file a supplement to this prospectus if a Selling Security Holder enters into a material arrangement with a broker-dealer for sale of common stock being registered.  If the Selling Security Holders use this prospectus for any sale of the shares of common stock, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling security holders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling security holders (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.
21

PENNY STOCK RULES
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has also adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the Nasdaq system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system).
A purchaser is purchasing penny stock, which limits the ability to sell the stock.  The shares offered by this prospectus constitute penny stock under the Exchange Act. The shares will remain penny stocks for the foreseeable future.  The classification of penny stock makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to sell the stock into a secondary market, which makes it more difficult for a purchaser to liquidate his/her investment. Any broker-dealer engaged by the purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her shares in us will be subject to Rules 15g-1 through 15g-10 of the Exchange Act. Rather than creating a need to comply with those rules, some broker-dealers will refuse to attempt to sell penny stock.
The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document, which:
·
Contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stock in both public offerings and secondary trading;
·
Contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the Securities Act;
23
·
Contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including "bid" and "ask" price for the penny stock and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price;
·
Contains a toll-free number for inquiries on disciplinary actions;
·
Defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading penny stocks; and
·
Contains such other information and is in such form (including language, type, size and format) as the Securities and Exchange Commission shall require by rule or regulation.
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, to the customer:
·
The bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;
·
The compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction;
·
The number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and
·
Monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgement of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling their securities.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This registration statement and other reports filed by our Company from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively the "Filings") contain or may contain forward-looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information currently available to, our management as well as estimates and assumptions made by our management. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are only predictions and speak only as of the date hereof. When used in the filings, the words "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "future," "intend," "plan," or the negative of these terms and similar expressions as they relate to us or our management identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect our current view with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors, including those set forth in the Risk Factors beginning on page 8. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended, or planned.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
25
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Our financial statements would be affected to the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management's judgment in its application. There are also areas in which management's judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.
Overview
We intend for this discussion to provide information that will assist in understanding our consolidated financial statements, the changes in certain key items in those consolidated financial statements, and the primary factors that accounted for those changes, as well as how certain accounting principles affect our consolidated financial statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and year ended December 31, 2014.
Executive Overview
General Overview of Our Business
The platform operation of the Company is our subsidiary Here To Serve Missouri Waste Division, LLC ("HTS Waste").  HTS Waste is in the business of collection of non-hazardous solid waste.  Our revenue is generated primarily by collection services provided to residential customers.  The following table reflects the  total revenue of Meridian Waste Services, LLC ("Predecessor") for the years ending December 31, 2013, the combined revenues for HTS Waste and the Predecessor for the year ended December 31, 2014, and for the year ended December 31, 2015 (dollars in thousands):

As our revenues continue to grow in this existing market, we plan to increase the rate of this growth by expanding the collection business into the commercial arena as well as increasing our presence in the "roll-off" business.  Roll-off service is the hauling and disposal of large waste containers (typically between 10 and 40 cubic yards) that are loaded on to and off of the collection vehicle.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, the related notes thereto and the pro forma financials included in this annual report on Form 10-K.
Results of Operations
Revenue
The Company's revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was $7,488,239, a 147% increase over the three months ended March 31, 2015 of $3,035,819.  This increase is due to the continued growth of HTS Waste, the acquisitions of Christian Disposal and Eagle Ridge.
26
The Company's revenue for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $13,506,000, an 11% increase over the annualized revenue for the year ended December 31, 2014 of $12,202,000.  This increase is due to the continued growth of HTS Waste, the acquisitions of Christian Disposal and Eagle Ridge, and the expansion into other service product lines.
Gross Profit
Gross profit was approximately $2,300,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, or approximately 30%.  This is an increase of approximately 3% from the three months ended March 31, 2015. Gross profit was approximately $800,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, or approximately 27%, The increase is the result of management's ability to improve efficiencies of operations by reducing work hours by our drivers and workers, consolidating routes and focusing on our pricing structure at new and existing accounts  and decreased landfill costs as the company began internalizing its waste.
Gross profit was approximately $3,400,000 for the year ending December 31, 2015, or approximately 25%.  This is consistent with the seven and one-half months ending December 31, 2014 and relatively consistent with the gross profit percentage of the Predecessor, MWS.  The decrease from the Predecessor is due to an increase in depreciation expense included in cost of sales and an increase in disposal cost.  The increase in depreciation expense is due to the application of "push-down" accounting adjusting the value of depreciable property to fair value on May 15, 2014 and the addition of new equipment.
Operating Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $7,417,245 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. This is consistent of the level of selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ending March 31, 2015. As compared with the three months ended March 31, 2015, selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately 119% for the three months ended March 31, 2016. This is consistent with the increase in revenue for the same periods. The expenses reflect costs associated with incentive packages totaling approximately $3,500,000 awarded to certain employees and vendors of the Company and certain other one-time items relating to the acquisitions of Christian Disposal, LLC and Eagle Ridge Landfill, LLC in December 2015.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $17,641,000for the year ended December 31, 2015. This is a significant increase over the level of selling, general and administrative expenses of approximately $4,400,000 for the seven and one-half months ending December 31, 2014 and that of the Predecessor. This is largely due to significant incentive packages totaling approximately $7,400,000 awarded to certain employees and vendors and certain other one-time expenses in connection with the acquisitions of Christian Disposal, LLC and Eagle Ridge Landfill, LLC and reorganization of the Company. In addition, the increase is related to the use of "push-down" accounting related to the business combinations which occurred in May 2014 and December 2015.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2016, the Company had negative working capital of $4,613,287. In the three months ended March 31, 2016, cash generated from operating activities, excluding one-time acquisition and transition expenses of approximately $467,000, was approximately $408,000. In addition, as of March 31, 2016, the Company had approximately $1,767,000 in cash and cash equivalents and $1,947,000 in short-term investments to cover its short term cash requirements.  Further, the Company has approximately $12,850,000 of borrowing capacity on its multi-draw term loans and revolving commitments with Goldman Sachs as discussed below.
The Company purchased over $2 million of new equipment while increasing long term debt by approximately $2,377,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase in debt was due to the Company borrowing on its revolving commitments with Goldman Sachs as discussed below.
27
Our primary uses of cash have been for working capital purposes to support our operations and our efforts to become a reporting company with the SEC. All funds received have been expended in the furtherance of growing our business operations, establishing our brand and making sure our work is completed with efficiency and with the highest quality. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity over the next 12 to 24 months:
o
An increase in working capital requirements to finance additional marketing efforts,
o
Increases in advertising, public relations and sales promotions for existing customers and to attract new customers as the company expands, and
o
The cost of being a public company.
At March 31, 2016, we had total cash and short-term investments of $3,713,695, the majority of which was funded by Goldman Sachs from the draw on the revolving commitments of $2,150,000 and $1,100,000 from a private placement stock offering.
During the 3 months ending September 30, 2015, the Company eliminated its Credit Facility with Comerica Bank (see Debt Restructuring with Praesidian Capital Opportunity Fund III, LP below).  In December 2015, the Company subsequently refinanced its debt with Praesidian in connection with the acquisitions of Christian Disposal and Eagle Ridge (see Goldman Sachs Credit Agreement below).
We currently have no material commitments for capital expenditures and believe that our cash requirements over the next 12 months will be approximately $1,000,000. In order to fund future growth and expansion through acquisitions and capital expenditures, the company may be required to raise capital through the sale of its securities.
In order to fund future expansion through acquisitions and capital expenditures, the Company may raise additional capital through the sale of its securities on the public market.
As of December 31, 2015, the Company had negative working capital of $5,871,000.   Cash generated from operating activities, excluding one-time expenses of approximately $3,295,000 related to the refinancing of debt and acquisitions, was approximately $1,470,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015.
The Company purchased over $1 million of new equipment while increasing long term debt by approximately $30,000,000 during the year ended December 31, 2015.  The increase in debt was due to the debt restructuring as part of the acquisitions as discussed below.
During the 3 months ending September 30, 2015, the Company eliminated its Credit Facility with Comerica Bank (see
Debt Restructuring with Praesidian Capital Opportunity Fund III, LP
below).  In December 2015, the Company subsequently refinanced its debt with Praesidian in connection with the acquisitions of Christian Disposal and Eagle Ridge

Debt Restructuring with Praesidian Capital Opportunity Fund III, LP
On August 6, 2015, the Company entered into a financing agreement with Praesidian Capital Opportunity Fund III, LP whereby the Comerica facilities described below and other short term bridge financing were paid.  Total proceeds from this financing were used to eliminate this debt.
28
Goldman Sachs Credit Agreement
On December 22, 2015, in connection with the closing of acquisitions of Christian Disposal, LLC and certain assets of Eagle Ridge Landfill, LLC, the Company was extended certain credit facilities by Goldman Sachs, consisting of $40,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Tranche A Term Loans, $10,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Multi- Draw Term Loans and up to $5,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Revolving Commitments.  At December 31, 2015, only the Tranche A Term Loan was drawn and had an outstanding balance of $40,000,000. It is collateralized by the assets of the Company. The debt has a maturity date of December 22, 2020 with interest paid monthly at an annual rate of 9%. In addition, there is a commitment fee paid monthly on the Mutli-Draw Term Loans and Revolving Commitments at an annual rate of 0.5%.
The proceeds of the loans were used to partially fund the acquisitions referenced above and refinance existing debt with Praesidian, among other things.  The Company re-paid in full and terminated its agreements with Praesidian which effected the cancellation of certain warrants that the Company issued to Fund III for the purchase of 931,826 shares of the Company's common stock and to Fund III-A for the purchase of 361,196 shares of the Company's common stock. In consideration for the cancellation of the Praesidian Warrants, the Company issued to Praesidian Capital Opportunity Fund III, LP, 1,153,052 shares of common stock and issued to Praesidian Capital Opportunity Fund III-A, LP, 446,948 shares of common stock. Due to the early termination of the notes and cancellation of the warrants, the Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1,899,161 in the year ended December 31, 2015.
In addition, in connection with the credit agreement, the Company issued warrants to Goldman Sachs for the purchase of shares of the Company's common stock equivalent to a 6.5% Percentage Interest at a purchase price equal to $449,553, exercisable on or before December 22, 2023. The warrants grant the holder certain other rights, including
:
·
put rights, providing that the holder may demand that the Company purchase all of such warrant from the holder for cash upon the earliest to occur of (i) the Maturity Date, (ii) the payment of at least 75% of the obligations under the Credit Agreement, (iii) an uncured event of default and (iv) a Sale Transactions (as defined in the Goldman Sachs Warrants);
·
demand registration rights, providing that the holder may demand that the Company file registration statements, including a shelf registration statement (if the Company is eligible at such time to utilize a shelf registration for the Warrant Shares) at any time;
·
piggyback registration rights, providing that the holder be given notice of a proposed registration of Equity Securities in connection with an underwritten public offering of such Equity Securities and upon request of holder, the Company shall cause such Warrant Shares to be registered;
·
preemptive rights to participate pro rata in raises of Senior Capital (Equity Securities, indebtedness, debt securities other than Common Shares (or Equity Securities convertible or exercisable or exchangeable (directly or indirectly) for Common Shares) or first lien indebtedness for borrowed money.;
·
information rights and the right to appoint a non-voting observer to the Company's Board of Directors;
·
and indemnification rights.
The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete; please refer to the Goldman Sachs Warrants, Exhibit 4.6, hereof.
Inflation and Seasonality
Based on our industry and our historic trends, we expect our operations to vary seasonally.  Typically, revenue will be highest in the second and third calendar quarters and lowest in the first and fourth calendar quarters.  These seasonal variations result in fluctuations in waste volumes due to weather conditions and general economic activity.  We also expect that our operating expenses may be higher during the winter months due to periodic adverse weather conditions that can slow the collection of waste, resulting in higher labor and operational costs.

Critical Accounting Policies
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 include the operations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Here To Serve Missouri Waste Division, LLC, Meridian Land Company, LLC, Here to Serve Technology, LLC and Christian Disposal, LLC. The following two subsidiaries of the Company, Here To Serve Georgia Waste Division, LLC and Here to Serve Technology, LLC, a Georgia Limited Liability Company had no operations during the period.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company periodically reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable.  The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less that the carrying amount of the asset.  The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset's estimated fair value and its book value.
Use of Estimates
Management estimates and judgments are an integral part of consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). We believe that the critical accounting policies described in this section address the more significant estimates required of management when preparing our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. We consider an accounting estimate critical if changes in the estimate may have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. We believe that the accounting estimates employed are appropriate and resulting balances are reasonable; however, actual results could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustment to these balances in future periods.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at management's estimate of net realizable value. At December 31, 2015 and 2014 the Company had approximately $2,326,000 and $660,000 of gross trade receivables, respectively.
Our reported balance of accounts receivable, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, represents our estimate of the amount that ultimately will be realized in cash. We review the adequacy and adjust our allowance for doubtful accounts on an ongoing basis, using historical payment trends and the age of the receivables and knowledge of our individual customers. However, if the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, additional allowances may be required. At December 31, 2015 and 2014 the Company had approximately $618,000 and $71,000 recorded for the allowance for doubtful accounts, respectively.
Revenue Recognition
The Company follows the guidance of ASC 605 for revenue recognition.  In general, the Company records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
We generally provide services under contracts with municipalities or individual customers. Municipal and commercial contracts are generally long-term and often have renewal options. Advance billings are recorded as deferred revenue, and revenue is recognized over the period services are provided. We recognize revenue when all four of the following criteria are met:
●
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists such as a service agreement with a municipality, a hauling customer or a disposal customer;
●
Services have been performed such as the collection and hauling of waste;
●
The price of the services provided to the customer is fixed or determinable; and
●
Collectability is reasonably assured.
30
Property, plant and equipment
The cost of property, plant, and equipment is depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets utilizing the straight-line method of depreciation. The cost of leasehold improvements is depreciated (amortized) over the lesser of the length of the related leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed when incurred and major repairs will be capitalized and expensed if it benefits future periods.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for potential impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment at least annually.
Investment in Related Party Affiliate
The Company has an investment in a privately held corporation in the mobile apps industry. As the Company exercises significant influence on this entity, this investment is recorded using the equity method of accounting. The Company monitors this investment for impairment and makes appropriate reductions in the carrying value if the Company determines that an impairment charge is required based primarily on the financial condition and near-term prospect of this entity.
Goodwill
Goodwill is the excess of our purchase cost over the fair value of the net assets of acquired businesses. We do not amortize goodwill, but as discussed in the Asset Impairments section below, we assess our goodwill for impairment at least annually.
Landfill Accounting
Capitalized landfill costs
Cost basis of landfill assets — We capitalize various costs that we incur to make a landfill ready to accept waste. These costs generally include expenditures for land (including the landfill footprint and required landfill buffer property); permitting; excavation; liner material and installation; landfill leachate collection systems; landfill gas collection systems; environmental monitoring equipment for groundwater and landfill gas; and directly related engineering, capitalized interest, on-site road construction and other capital infrastructure costs. The cost basis of our landfill assets also includes asset retirement costs, which represent estimates of future costs associated with landfill final capping, closure and post-closure activities. These costs are discussed below.
Final capping, closure and post-closure costs — Following is a description of our asset retirement activities and our related accounting:
●
Final capping — Involves the installation of flexible membrane liners and geosynthetic clay liners, drainage and compacted soil layers and topsoil over areas of a landfill where total airspace capacity has been consumed. Final capping asset retirement obligations are recorded on a units-of-consumption basis as airspace is consumed related to the specific final capping event with a corresponding increase in the landfill asset. The final capping is accounted for as a discrete obligation and recorded as an asset and a liability based on estimates of the discounted cash flows and capacity associated with the final capping.
●
Closure — Includes the construction of the final portion of methane gas collection systems (when required), demobilization and routine maintenance costs. These are costs incurred after the site ceases to accept waste, but before the landfill is certified as closed by the applicable state regulatory agency. These costs are recorded as an asset retirement obligation as airspace is consumed over the life of the landfill with a corresponding increase in the landfill asset. Closure obligations are recorded over the life of the landfill based on estimates of the discounted cash flows associated with performing closure activities.
31
●
Post-closure — Involves the maintenance and monitoring of a landfill site that has been certified closed by the applicable regulatory agency. Generally, we are required to maintain and monitor landfill sites for a 30-year period. These maintenance and monitoring costs are recorded as an asset retirement obligation as airspace is consumed over the life of the landfill with a corresponding increase in the landfill asset. Post-closure obligations are recorded over the life of the landfill based on estimates of the discounted cash flows associated with performing post-closure activities.
We develop our estimates of these obligations using input from our operations personnel, engineers and accountants. Our estimates are based on our interpretation of current requirements and proposed regulatory changes and are intended to approximate fair value. Absent quoted market prices, the estimate of fair value is based on the best available information, including the results of present value techniques. In many cases, we contract with third parties to fulfill our obligations for final capping, closure and post closure. We use historical experience, professional engineering judgment and quoted and actual prices paid for similar work to determine the fair value of these obligations. We are required to recognize these obligations at market prices whether we plan to contract with third parties or perform the work ourselves. In those instances where we perform the work with internal resources, the incremental profit margin realized is recognized as a component of operating income when the work is performed.
Once we have determined the final capping, closure and post-closure costs, we inflate those costs to the expected time of payment and discount those expected future costs back to present value. During the year ended December 31, 2015 we inflated these costs in current dollars until the expected time of payment using an inflation rate of 2.5%. We discounted these costs to present value using the credit-adjusted, risk-free rate effective at the time an obligation is incurred, consistent with the expected cash flow approach. Any changes in expectations that result in an upward revision to the estimated cash flows are treated as a new liability and discounted at the current rate while downward revisions are discounted at the historical weighted average rate of the recorded obligation. As a result, the credit-adjusted, risk-free discount rate used to calculate the present value of an obligation is specific to each individual asset retirement obligation. The weighted average rate applicable to our long-term asset retirement obligations at December 31, 2015 is approximately 8.5%.
We record the estimated fair value of final capping, closure and post-closure liabilities for our landfills based on the capacity consumed through the current period. The fair value of final capping obligations is developed based on our estimates of the airspace consumed to date for the final capping. The fair value of closure and post-closure obligations is developed based on our estimates of the airspace consumed to date for the entire landfill and the expected timing of each closure and post-closure activity. Because these obligations are measured at estimated fair value using present value techniques, changes in the estimated cost or timing of future final capping, closure and post-closure activities could result in a material change in these liabilities, related assets and results of operations. We assess the appropriateness of the estimates used to develop our recorded balances annually, or more often if significant facts change.
Changes in inflation rates or the estimated costs, timing or extent of future final capping, closure and post-closure activities typically result in both (i) a current adjustment to the recorded liability and landfill asset and (ii) a change in liability and asset amounts to be recorded prospectively over either the remaining capacity of the related discrete final capping or the remaining permitted and expansion airspace (as defined below) of the landfill. Any changes related to the capitalized and future cost of the landfill assets are then recognized in accordance with our amortization policy, which would generally result in amortization expense being recognized prospectively over the remaining capacity of the final capping or the remaining permitted and expansion airspace of the landfill, as appropriate. Changes in such estimates associated with airspace that has been fully utilized result in an adjustment to the recorded liability and landfill assets with an immediate corresponding adjustment to landfill airspace amortization expense.
●
Remaining permitted airspace — Our engineers, in consultation with third-party engineering consultants and surveyors, are responsible for determining remaining permitted airspace at our landfills. The remaining permitted airspace is determined by an annual survey, which is used to compare the existing landfill topography to the expected final landfill topography.
●
Expansion airspace — We also include currently unpermitted expansion airspace in our estimate of remaining permitted and expansion airspace in certain circumstances. First, to include airspace associated with an expansion effort, we must generally expect the initial expansion permit application to be submitted within one year and the final expansion permit to be received within five years. Second, we must believe that obtaining the expansion permit is likely, considering the following criteria:
32
o
Personnel are actively working on the expansion of an existing landfill, including efforts to obtain land use and local, state or provincial approvals;
o
We have a legal right to use or obtain land to be included in the expansion plan;
o
There are no significant known technical, legal, community, business, or political restrictions or similar issues that could negatively affect the success of such expansion; and
o
Financial analysis has been completed based on conceptual design, and the results demonstrate that the expansion meets the Company's criteria for investment.
For unpermitted airspace to be initially included in our estimate of remaining permitted and expansion airspace, the expansion effort must meet all of the criteria listed above. These criteria are evaluated by our field-based engineers, accountants, managers and others to identify potential obstacles to obtaining the permits. Once the unpermitted airspace is included, our policy provides that airspace may continue to be included in remaining permitted and expansion airspace even if certain of these criteria are no longer met as long as we continue to believe we will ultimately obtain the permit, based on the facts and circumstances of a specific landfill.
When we include the expansion airspace in our calculations of remaining permitted and expansion airspace, we also include the projected costs for development, as well as the projected asset retirement costs related to the final capping, closure and post-closure of the expansion in the amortization basis of the landfill.
Once the remaining permitted and expansion airspace is determined in cubic yards, an airspace utilization factor ("AUF") is established to calculate the remaining permitted and expansion capacity in tons. The AUF is established using the measured density obtained from previous annual surveys and is then adjusted to account for future settlement. The amount of settlement that is forecasted will take into account several site-specific factors including current and projected mix of waste type, initial and projected waste density, estimated number of years of life remaining, depth of underlying waste, anticipated access to moisture through precipitation or recirculation of landfill leachate, and operating practices. In addition, the initial selection of the AUF is subject to a subsequent multi-level review by our engineering group, and the AUF used is reviewed on a periodic basis and revised as necessary. Our historical experience generally indicates that the impact of settlement at a landfill is greater later in the life of the landfill when the waste placed at the landfill approaches its highest point under the permit requirements.
After determining the costs and remaining permitted and expansion capacity at our landfill, we determine the per ton rates that will be expensed as waste is received and deposited at the landfill by dividing the costs by the corresponding number of tons. We calculate per ton amortization rates for the landfill for assets associated with each final capping, for assets related to closure and post-closure activities and for all other costs capitalized or to be capitalized in the future. These rates per ton are updated annually, or more often, as significant facts change.
It is possible that actual results, including the amount of costs incurred, the timing of final capping, closure and post-closure activities, our airspace utilization or the success of our expansion efforts could ultimately turn out to be significantly different from our estimates and assumptions. To the extent that such estimates, or related assumptions, prove to be significantly different than actual results, lower profitability may be experienced due to higher amortization rates or higher expenses; or higher profitability may result if the opposite occurs. Most significantly, if it is determined that expansion capacity should no longer be considered in calculating the recoverability of a landfill asset, we may be required to recognize an asset impairment or incur significantly higher amortization expense. If at any time management makes the decision to abandon the expansion effort, the capitalized costs related to the expansion effort are expensed immediately.
33
Deferred Revenue
The Company records deferred revenue for customers that were billed in advance of services. The balance in deferred revenue represents amounts billed in October, November and December for services that will be provided during January, February and March.
Cost of Services
Cost of services include all employment costs associated with waste collection, transfer and disposal, damage claims, landfill costs, personal property taxes associated with collection vehicles and other direct cost of the collection and disposal process.
Concentrations
The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, which could, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts; however, amounts in excess of the federally insured limit may be at risk if the bank experiences financial difficulties.  The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions.  The Company's accounts at these institutions are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000.
Financial instruments which also potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade accounts receivable; however, concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivables are limited due to generally short payment terms.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 718. To date, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options.
Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period).  The ASC also require measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.
Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the "measurement date." The expense is recognized over the service period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company initially records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date.
The Company recorded stock based compensation expense of $8,187,000 and $339,000 during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Amendments in this Update create Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. In addition, the amendments supersede the cost guidance in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition—Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts, and create new Subtopic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs—Contracts with Customers. In summary, the core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This Accounting Standards Update is the final version of Proposed Accounting Standards Update 2011-230—Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and Proposed Accounting Standards Update 2011–250—Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Codification Amendments, both of which have been deleted. Accounting Standards Update 2014-09. The amendments in this Update are effectively for the Company for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of ASU 2014-09 on the consolidated financial statements.

Overview
Meridian Waste Solutions, Inc. (formerly Brooklyn Cheesecake & Desserts Company, Inc. hereafter referred to as the "Company" or "Meridian") is an integrated provider of non-hazardous solid waste collection, transfer and disposal services. We currently have all of our operations in Missouri but are aggressively looking to expand our presence across the Midwest, South and East regions of the United States.
Corporate Structure
Here to Serve – Missouri Waste Division, LLC d/b/a Meridian Waste
HTS Waste is a non-hazardous solid waste management company providing collection services for approximately 45,000 commercial, industrial and residential customers in Missouri. We own one collection operation based out of Bridgeton, Missouri. Approximately 100% of HTS Waste's 2015 revenue was from collection, utilizing over 60 collection vehicles.
Here To Serve began non-hazardous waste collection operations in May 2014 upon the acquisition of nearly all of the assets from Meridian Waste Service, LLC that in turn became the core of our operations. From our formation through today, we have begun to create the infrastructure needed to expand our operations through acquisitions and market development opportunities.
Christian Disposal, LLC; FWCD
Christian Disposal, along with its subsidiary, FWCD, LLC, is a non-hazardous solid waste management company providing collection and transfer services for approximately 35,000 commercial, industrial and residential customers in Missouri. Christian Disposal's collection operation is based out of Winfield, Missouri. Along with operations in Winfield, Christian Disposal operates two transfer stations, in the O'Fallon, Missouri and St. Peters, Missouri and own one transfer station, in Winfield, Missouri.  Approximately 100% of Christian Disposal and FWCD's 2015 revenue was from collection and transfer, utilizing over 35 collection vehicles.
Christian Disposal began non-hazardous waste collection operations in 1978. Our acquisition of Christian Disposal is a key element of our strategy to create the vertically integrated infrastructure needed to expand our operations.
Meridian Land Company, LLC (Assets of Eagle Ridge Landfill & Hauling)
The Eagle Ridge Landfill (the "Eagle Ridge Landfill"), acquired by Meridian Land, is currently permitted to accept municipal solid waste.  The Eagle Ridge Landfill is located in Bowling Green, Missouri.  Meridian Land Company currently owns 265 acres at Eagle Ridge with 56.7 acres permitted and constructed to receive waste.
In addition to the Eagle Ridge Landfill, the Company operates, through Meridian Land Company, hauling operations in Bowling Green, Missouri, servicing commercial, residential and roll off customers in this market.  The Company will be looking to expand its footprint in the market through an aggressive sales and marketing strategy, as well as through additional acquisitions.
36
Customers
Meridian has two municipal contracts, the first of which accounted for 26% and 27%, and the second of which accounted for 18% and 19%, respectively, of HTS Waste's long-term contracted revenue for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 respectively.
Collection Services
Meridian, through its subsidiaries, provides solid waste collection services to approximately 75,000 industrial, commercial and residential customers in the Metropolitan St. Louis, Missouri area.  In 2015, its collection revenue consisted of approximately 17% from services provided to industrial customers, 13% from services provided to commercial customers and 70% from services provided to residential customers.
In our commercial collection operations, we supply our customers with waste containers of various types and sizes.  These containers are designed so that they can be lifted mechanically and emptied into a collection truck to be transported to a disposal facility.  By using these containers, we can service most of our commercial customers with trucks operated by a single employee.  Commercial collection services are generally performed under service agreements with a duration of one to five years with possible renewal options.  Fees are generally determined by such considerations as individual market factors, collection frequency, the type of equipment we furnish, the type and volume or weight of the waste to be collected, the distance to the disposal facility and the cost of disposal.
Residential solid waste collection services often are performed under contracts with municipalities, which we generally secure by competitive bid and which give us exclusive rights to service all or a portion of the homes in these municipalities.  These contracts usually range in duration from one to five years with possible renewal options.  Generally, the renewal options are automatic upon the mutual agreement of the municipality and the provider; however, some agreements provide for mandatory re-bidding. Alternatively, residential solid waste collection services may be performed on a subscription basis, in which individual households or homeowners' or similar associations contract directly with us.  In either case, the fees received for residential collection are based primarily on market factors, frequency and type of service, the distance to the disposal facility and the cost of disposal.
Additionally, we rent waste containers and provide collection services to construction, demolition and industrial sites.  We load the containers onto our vehicles and transport them with the waste to either a landfill or a transfer station for disposal.  We refer to this as "roll-off" collection.  Roll-off collection services are generally performed on a contractual basis.  Contract terms tend to be shorter in length and may vary according to the customers' underlying projects.
Transfer and Disposal Services
Landfills are the main depository for solid waste in the United States.  Solid waste landfills are built, operated, and tied to a state permit under stringent federal, state and local regulations.  Currently, solid waste landfills in the United States must be designed, permitted, operated, closed and maintained after closure in compliance with federal, state and local regulations pursuant to Subtitle D of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended.  We do not operate hazardous waste landfills, which may be subject to even greater regulations.  Operating a solid waste landfill includes excavating, constructing liners, continually spreading and compacting waste and covering waste with earth or other inert material as required, final capping, closure and post-closure monitoring.  The objectives of these operations are to maintain sanitary conditions, to ensure the best possible use of the airspace and to prepare the site so that it can ultimately be used for other end use purposes.
Access to a disposal facility is a necessity for all solid waste management companies.  While access to disposal facilities owned or operated by third parties can be obtained, we believe that it is preferable to internalize the waste streams when possible.  Meridian is targeting further geographic, as well as operational expansion by focusing on markets with transfer stations and landfills available for acquisition.
Our transfer stations allow us to consolidate waste for subsequent transfer in larger loads, thereby making disposal in our otherwise remote landfills economically feasible.  A transfer station is a facility located near residential and commercial collection routes where collection trucks take the solid waste that has been collected.  The waste is unloaded from the collection trucks and reloaded onto larger transfer trucks for transportation to a landfill for final disposal.  Transfer stations are generally owned by municipalities, with contracts to operate such transfer stations awarded based on bids.  As an alternative to operating a transfer station directly, we could negotiate the use of a transfer station owned by a private party or operated by a competitor; however, due to synergies and more favorable rates, operating our own transfer station is more profitable. In addition to increasing our ability to internalize the waste that our collection operations collect, using transfer stations reduces the costs associated with transporting waste to final disposal sites because the trucks we use for transfer have a larger capacity than collection trucks, thus allowing more waste to be transported to the disposal facility on each trip.

Our Operating Strengths
Experienced Leadership
We have a proven and experienced senior management team.  Our Chief Executive Officer,  Jeffrey S. Cosman, and President and COO Wally Hally combine over 35 years of  experience in the solid waste industry, including significant experience in
local and regional operations, local and regional accounting,
mergers & acquisitions, integration and the development of disposal capacity. Members of our team have held senior positions at Republic Services, Advanced Disposal, Southland Waste Services and Brown Ferris Industries.   Our team has a proven track record
development and implementation of strategic marketplace plans, sales, safety, acquisitions, and coordination of assets and personnel.
While our senior leadership team creates and drives our overall growth strategy, we rely on a decentralized management structure which does not interfere with local management which affords us the opportunity to capitalize on growth and cost reduction at the local level.
Vertically Integrated Operations
The vertical integration of our operations allows us to manage the waste stream from the point of collection through disposal, which we hope will enable us to maximize profit by controlling costs and gaining competitive advantages, while still providing high-quality service to our customers. In the St. Louis market, because we have integrated our network of collection, transfer and disposal assets, primarily using our own resources, we generate a steady, predictable stream of waste volume and capture an incremental disposal margin. As an additional benefit, we charge tipping fees to third-party collection service providers for the use of our transfer stations or landfills, providing a source of recurring revenue. We believe this internalization rate provides us with a significant cost advantage over our competitors, positioning us well to win additional profitable business through new customer acquisition and municipal contract awards. We also believe this vertically integrated structure enables us to quickly and efficiently integrate future acquisitions of transfer stations, collection operations or landfills into our current operations.
Landfill and Transfer Station Assets
We have one active and strategically located landfill at the core of our integrated operations which we believe provides us a significant competitive advantage in Missouri, in that we do not need to use our competitors' landfills. Our landfill has substantial remaining airspace, which will help us to sustain the long-term competitive advantages that our vertically integrated model provides.
The value of our landfill may be further enhanced by synergies associated with our vertically integrated operations, including our transfer stations, which enable us to cover a greater geographic area surrounding the landfill, and provide competitive advantages in that we would not need to use our competitors' landfills. In our experience there has generally been shift toward fewer, larger landfills has resulted in landfills that are generally located farther from population centers, with waste being transported longer distances between collection and disposal, typically after consolidation at a transfer station. With a landfill, transfer stations and collection services in place, we aim to provide vertically integrated operations that cover the substantial geographic area surrounding the landfill. In the event that non-renewal of our agreements for our transfer stations requires us to make arrangement with other transfer stations on less favorable terms, we would nevertheless benefit from the integration with our landfill operations.
38
Acquisition Integration and Municipal Contracts
Our business model contemplates our ability to execute and integrate value-enhancing, tuck-in acquisitions and win new municipal contracts as a core component of our growth. In the last six months since our acquisition of Christian Disposal, LLC and the Eagle Ridge Landfill, LLC Asset, we have completed two tuck-in acquisitions which we believe will improve or margins and improve cash flow.
As a management team, we have experience executing large-scale transactions by direct association with our historical success at Republic Services, Advanced Disposal and Browning Ferris Industries.   In addition to significantly expanding our scale of operations, the acquisitions of Christian Disposal, LLC and Eagle Ridge Landfill, LLC enhanced our geographic footprint by providing us with complementary operations throughout the state of Missouri. This has helped us realize cost efficiencies through improved internalization by virtue of increased route concentration and more efficient utilization of our assets.
Finally, our management team has demonstrated success in municipal contract bidding, as we have over 30 municipal contracts.
Long-Term Contracts
We serve approximately 75,000 residential, commercial and Construction and Industrial customers, with no single customer representing more than 12% of revenue in 2015. Our municipal customer relationships are generally supported by contracts ranging from three to seven years in initial duration with subsequent renewal periods, and we have a historical renewal rate of 100% with such customers. Our standard C&I service agreement is a five-year renewable agreement. We believe our customer relationships, long-term contracts and exceptional retention rate provide us with a high degree of stability as we continue to grow.
Customer Service
We maintain a central focus on customer service and we pride ourselves on trying to consistently exceed our customers' expectations.  We believe investing in our customers' satisfaction will ultimately maximize customer loyalty price stability.
Commitment to Safety
The safety of our employees and customers is extremely important to us and we have a strong track record of safety and environmental compliance. We constantly review and assess our policies practices and procedures in order to create a safer work environment for our employees and to reduce the frequency of workplace injuries.
Our Growth Strategy
Growth of Existing Markets
We believe that as the residential population and number of businesses grow in our existing market, we will see waste volumes increase organically. We seek to remain active and alert with respect to the changing landscapes in the communities in which we already provide service in order obtain long-term contracts for collecting solid waste for residential collection, collection from municipalities, as well as collection from small and large commercial and industrial contracts. Obtaining long-term contracts will enable us to grow our revenue base at the same rate as the underlying economic growth in these markets. Furthermore, securing long-term contracts provides a significant barrier to entry from competitors in these markets.
39
Expanding into New Markets
Our operating model focuses on vertically integrated operations.  We continue to pursue a growth strategy that includes acquiring solid waste companies that complement our existing business. Our goal is to create market-specific, vertically integrated operations consisting of one or more collection operations, transfer stations and landfills.
As we expand, we plan to focus our business in the secondary markets where competition from national service providers is limited. We plan to start new market development projects in certain disposal-neutral markets in which we will provide services under exclusive arrangements with municipal customers, which facilitates highly-efficient and profitable collection operations and lower capital requirements. We believe this strategic focus positions us to maintain significant share within our target markets, maximize customer retention and benefit from a higher and more stable pricing environment.
Acquisition and Integration
Our revenue model is based on organic growth of operations, the acquisition of established operations in new markets as well as being able execute value-adding, tuck-in acquisitions.    We hope to direct acquisition efforts towards those markets in which in which we would be able to provide vertically integrated collection and disposal services and/or provide waste collection services, pursuant to contracts that grant exclusivity.  Prior to acquisition, we analyze each prospective target for cost savings through the elimination of inefficiencies and excesses that are typically associated with private companies competing in fragmented industries.  We aim to realize synergies from consolidating businesses into our existing operations, which we hope will allow us to reduce capital and expense requirements associated with truck routing, personnel, fleet maintenance, inventories and back-office administration.
Pursue Additional Exclusive Municipal Contracts
We intend to devote significant resources to securing additional municipal contracts. Our management team is well versed in bidding for municipal contracts with over 35 of experience and working knowledge in the solid waste industry and local service areas in existing and target markets. We hope to to procure and negotiate additional exclusive municipal contracts, allowing us to maintain stable recurring revenue but also providing a significant barrier to entry to our competitors in those markets.
Invest in Strategic Infrastructure
We will continue to invest in our infrastructure to support growth and increase our margins. Given the long remaining life of our existing landfill, we will invest resources toward its development and enhancement in order to increase our disposal capacity. Similarly, we will continue to evaluate opportunities to maximize the efficiency of our collection operations.
Waste Industry Overview
The non-hazardous solid waste industry can be divided into the following three categories: collection, transfer and disposal services.  In our management's experience, companies engaging in collection and/or transfer operations of solid waste typically have lower margins than those performing disposal service operations.  By vertically integrating collection, transfer and disposal operations, operators seek to capture significant waste volumes and improve operating margins.
During the past four decades, our industry has experienced periods of substantial consolidation activity; however, we believe significant fragmentation remains.  We believe that there are two primary factors that lead to consolidation:
●
Stringent industry regulations have caused operating and capital costs to rise, with many local industry participants finding these costs difficult to bear and deciding to either close their operations or sell them to larger operators; and
●
Larger operators are increasingly pursuing economies of scale by vertically integrating their operations or by utilizing their facility, asset and management infrastructure over larger volumes and, accordingly, larger solid waste collection and disposal companies aim to become more cost-effective and competitive by controlling a larger waste stream and by gaining access to significant financial resources to make acquisitions.
40
Competition
The solid waste collection and disposal industry is highly competitive and fragmented and requires substantial labor and capital resources.  The industry presently includes large, publicly-held, national waste companies such as Republic Services, Inc. and Waste Management, Inc., as well as numerous other public and privately-held waste companies.  Our existing market and certain of the markets in which we will likely compete are served by one or more of these companies, as well as by numerous privately-held regional and local solid waste companies of varying sizes and resources, some of which have accumulated substantial goodwill in their markets.  We also compete with operators of alternative disposal facilities and with counties, municipalities and solid waste districts that maintain their own waste collection and disposal operations.  Public sector operations may have financial advantages over us because of potential access to user fees and similar charges, tax revenues and tax-exempt financing.
We compete for collection based primarily on geographic location and the price and quality of our services.  From time to time, our competitors may reduce the price of their services in an effort to expand their market share or service areas or to win competitively bid municipal contracts.  These practices may cause us to reduce the price of our services or, if we elect not to do so, to lose business.
Our management has observed significant consolidation in the solid waste collection and disposal industry, and, as a result of this perceived consolidation, we encounter competition in our efforts to acquire landfills, transfer stations and collection operations.  Competition exists not only for collection, transfer and disposal volume but also for acquisition candidates.  We generally compete for acquisition candidates with large, publicly-held waste management companies, private equity backed firms as well as numerous privately-held regional and local solid waste companies of varying sizes and resources.  Competition in the disposal industry may also be affected by the increasing national emphasis on recycling and other waste reduction programs, which may reduce the volume of waste deposited in landfills.  Accordingly, it may become uneconomical for us to make further acquisitions or we may be unable to locate or acquire suitable acquisition candidates at price levels and on terms and conditions that we consider appropriate, particularly in markets we do not already serve.
Sales and Marketing
We focus our marketing efforts on increasing and extending business with existing customers, as well as increasing our new customer base.  Our sales and marketing strategy is to provide prompt, high quality, comprehensive solid waste collection to our customers at competitive prices.  We target potential customers of all sizes, from small quantity generators to large companies and municipalities.  Because the waste collection and disposal business is a highly localized business, most of our marketing activity is local in nature.
Government Contracts
We are party to contracts with municipalities and other associations and agencies.  Many of these contracts are or will be subject to competitive bidding.  We may not be the successful bidder, or we may have to substantially lower prices in order to be the successful bidder.  In addition, some of our customers may have the right to terminate their contracts with us before the end of the contract term.
Municipalities may annex unincorporated areas within counties where we provide collection services, and as a result, our customers in annexed areas may be required to obtain service from competitors who have been franchised or contracted by the annexing municipalities to provide those services.  Some of the local jurisdictions in which we currently operate grant exclusive franchises to collection and disposal companies, others may do so in the future, and we may enter markets where franchises are granted by certain municipalities, thereby reducing the potential market opportunity for us.
41
Regulation
Our business is subject to extensive and evolving federal, state and local environmental, health, safety and transportation laws and regulations.  These laws and regulations are administered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, or EPA, and various other federal, state and local environmental, zoning, air, water, transportation, land use, health and safety agencies.  Many of these agencies regularly inspect our operations to monitor compliance with these laws and regulations.  Governmental agencies have the authority to enforce compliance with these laws and regulations and to obtain injunctions or impose civil or criminal penalties in cases of violations.  We believe that regulation of the waste industry will continue to evolve, and we will adapt to future legal and regulatory requirements to ensure compliance.
Our operations are subject to extensive regulation, principally under the federal statutes described below.
The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended, or RCRA.
RCRA regulates the handling, transportation and disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous wastes and delegates authority to states to develop programs to ensure the safe disposal of solid wastes.  On October 9, 1991, the EPA promulgated Solid Waste Disposal Facility Criteria for non-hazardous solid waste landfills under Subtitle D of RCRA.  Subtitle D includes location standards, facility design and operating criteria, closure and post-closure requirements, financial assurance standards and groundwater monitoring, as well as corrective action standards, many of which had not commonly been in place or enforced at landfills.  Subtitle D applies to all solid waste landfill cells that received waste after October 9, 1991, and, with limited exceptions, required all landfills to meet these requirements by October 9, 1993. All states in which we operate have EPA-approved programs which implemented at least the minimum requirements of Subtitle D and in some states even more stringent requirements.
The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, or CERCLA.
CERCLA, which is also known as Superfund, addresses problems created by the release or threatened release of hazardous substances (as defined in CERCLA) into the environment.  CERCLA's primary mechanism for achieving remediation of such problems is to impose strict joint and several liability for cleanup of disposal sites on current owners and operators of the site, former site owners and operators at the time of disposal and parties who arranged for disposal at the facility (
i.e.
, generators of the waste and transporters who select the disposal site).  The costs of a CERCLA cleanup can be substantial.  Liability under CERCLA is not dependent on the existence or intentional disposal of "hazardous wastes" (as defined under RCRA), but can also be based upon the release or threatened release, even as a result of lawful, unintentional and non-negligent action, of any one of the more than 700 "hazardous substances" listed by the EPA, even in minute amounts.
The Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972, as amended, or the Clean Water Act.
This act establishes rules regulating the discharge of pollutants into streams and other waters of the United States (as defined in the Clean Water Act) from a variety of sources, including solid waste disposal sites.  If runoff from our transfer stations may be discharged into surface waters, the Clean Water Act requires us to apply for and obtain discharge permits, conduct sampling and monitoring and, under certain circumstances, reduce the quantity of pollutants in those discharges.  In 1990, the EPA issued additional rules under the Clean Water Act, which establish standards for management of storm water runoff from landfills and which require landfills that receive, or in the past received, industrial waste to obtain storm water discharge permits.  In addition, if a landfill or transfer station discharges wastewater through a sewage system to a publicly-owned treatment works, the facility must comply with discharge limits imposed by the treatment works.  Also, if development of a landfill may alter or affect "wetlands," the owner may have to obtain a permit and undertake certain mitigation measures before development may begin.  This requirement is likely to affect the construction or expansion of many solid waste disposal sites.
The Clean Air Act of 1970, as amended, or the Clean Air Act.
The Clean Air Act provides for increased federal, state and local regulation of the emission of air pollutants.  The EPA has applied the Clean Air Act to solid waste landfills and vehicles with heavy duty engines, such as waste collection vehicles.  Additionally, in March 1996, the EPA adopted New Source Performance Standards and Emission Guidelines (the "Emission Guidelines") for municipal solid waste landfills to control emissions of landfill gases.  These regulations impose limits on air emissions from solid waste landfills.  The Emission Guidelines impose two sets of emissions standards, one of which is applicable to all solid waste landfills for which construction, reconstruction or modification was commenced before May 30, 1991.  The other applies to all municipal solid waste landfills for which construction, reconstruction or modification was commenced on or after May 30, 1991.  These guidelines, combined with the new permitting programs established under the Clean Air Act, could subject solid waste landfills to significant permitting requirements and, in some instances, require installation of gas recovery systems to reduce emissions to allowable limits.  The EPA also regulates the emission of hazardous air pollutants from municipal landfills and has promulgated regulations that require measures to monitor and reduce such emissions.
42
Climate Change
.  A variety of regulatory developments, proposals or requirements have been introduced that are focused on restricting the emission of carbon dioxide, methane and other gases known as greenhouse gases.  Congress has considered legislation directed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions.  There has been support in various regions of the country for legislation that requires reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, and some states have already adopted legislation addressing greenhouse gas emissions from various sources.  In 2007, the U.S. Supreme Court held in Massachusetts, et al. v. EPA that greenhouse gases are an "air pollutant" under the federal Clean Air Act and, thus, subject to future regulation.  In a move toward regulating greenhouse gases, on December 15, 2009, the EPA published its findings that emission of carbon dioxide, methane and other greenhouse gases present an endangerment to human health and the environment because greenhouse gases are, according to EPA, contributing to climate change.  On October 30, 2009, the EPA published the greenhouse gas reporting final rule, effective December 29, 2009, which establishes a new comprehensive scheme requiring certain specified industries as well as operators of stationary sources emitting more than established annual thresholds of carbon dioxide-equivalent greenhouse gases to inventory and report their greenhouse gas emissions annually.  Municipal solid waste landfills are subject to the rule.  In 2009, the EPA also proposed regulations that would require a reduction in emissions of greenhouse gases from motor vehicles.  According to the EPA, the final motor vehicle greenhouse gas standards will trigger construction and operating permit requirements for stationary sources that exceed potential-to-emit (PTE) thresholds for regulated pollutants.  As a result, the EPA has proposed to tailor these programs such that only large stationary sources, such as electric generating units, cement production facilities, and petroleum refineries will be required to have air permits that authorize greenhouse gas emissions.
The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, as amended, or OSHA.
OSHA establishes certain employer responsibilities, including maintenance of a workplace free of recognized hazards likely to cause death or serious injury, compliance with standards promulgated by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and various record keeping, disclosure and procedural requirements.  Various standards, including standards for notices of hazards, safety in excavation and demolition work and the handling of asbestos, may apply to our operations.
Flow Control/Interstate Waste Restrictions.
Certain permits and approvals, as well as certain state and local regulations, may limit a landfill or transfer station to accepting waste that originates from specified geographic areas, restrict the importation of out-of-state waste or wastes originating outside the local jurisdiction or otherwise discriminate against non-local waste.  From time to time, federal legislation is proposed that would allow some local flow control restrictions.  Although no such federal legislation has been enacted to date, if such federal legislation should be enacted in the future, states in which we use landfills could limit or prohibit the importation of out-of-state waste or direct that wastes be handled at specified facilities. These restrictions could also result in higher disposal costs for our collection operations.  If we were unable to pass such higher costs through to our customers, our business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.
State and Local Regulation.
Each state in which we now operate or may operate in the future has laws and regulations governing the generation, storage, treatment, handling, transportation and disposal of solid waste, occupational safety and health, water and air pollution and, in most cases, the siting, design, operation, maintenance, closure and post-closure maintenance of landfills and transfer stations.  State and local permits and approval for these operations may be required and may be subject to periodic renewal, modification or revocation by the issuing agencies.  In addition, many states have adopted statutes comparable to, and in some cases more stringent than, CERCLA.  These statutes impose requirements for investigation and cleanup of contaminated sites and liability for costs and damages associated with such sites, and some provide for the imposition of liens on property owned by responsible parties.  Furthermore, many municipalities also have ordinances, local laws and regulations affecting our operations.  These include zoning and health measures that limit solid waste management activities to specified sites or activities, flow control provisions that direct or restrict the delivery of solid wastes to specific facilities, laws that grant the right to establish franchises for collection services and then put such franchises out for bid and bans or other restrictions on the movement of solid wastes into a municipality.
43
Certain state and local jurisdictions may also seek to enforce flow control restrictions through local legislation or contractually.  In certain cases, we may elect not to challenge such restrictions.  These restrictions could reduce the volume of waste going to landfills in certain areas, which may adversely affect our ability to operate our landfills at their full capacity and/or reduce the prices that we can charge for landfill disposal services.  These restrictions may also result in higher disposal costs for our collection operations.  If we were unable to pass such higher costs through to our customers, our business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.
Permits or other land use approvals with respect to a landfill, as well as state or local laws and regulations, may specify the quantity of waste that may be accepted at the landfill during a given time period and/or specify the types of waste that may be accepted at the landfill.  Once an operating permit for a landfill is obtained, it must generally be renewed periodically.
There has been an increasing trend at the state and local level to mandate and encourage waste reduction and recycling and to prohibit or restrict the disposal in landfills of certain types of solid wastes, such as yard wastes, beverage containers, unshredded tires, lead-acid batteries, paper, cardboard and household appliances.
Many states and local jurisdictions have enacted "bad boy" laws that allow the agencies that have jurisdiction over waste services contracts or permits to deny or revoke these contracts or permits based on the applicant's or permit holder's compliance history.  Some states and local jurisdictions go further and consider the compliance history of the parent, subsidiaries or affiliated companies, in addition to that of the applicant or permit holder. These laws authorize the agencies to make determinations of an applicant's or permit holder's fitness to be awarded a contract to operate and to deny or revoke a contract or permit because of unfitness unless there is a showing that the applicant or permit holder has been rehabilitated through the adoption of various operating policies and procedures put in place to assure future compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Some state and local authorities enforce certain federal laws in addition to state and local laws and regulations. For example, in some states, RCRA, OSHA, parts of the Clean Air Act and parts of the Clean Water Act are enforced by local or state authorities instead of the EPA, and in some states those laws are enforced jointly by state or local and federal authorities.
Public Utility Regulation.
In many states, public authorities regulate the rates that landfill operators may charge.
Seasonality
Based on our industry and our historic trends, we expect our operations to vary seasonally.  Typically, revenue will be highest in the second and third calendar quarters and lowest in the first and fourth calendar quarters.  These seasonal variations result in fluctuations in waste volumes due to weather conditions and general economic activity.  We also expect that our operating expenses may be higher during the winter months due to periodic adverse weather conditions that can slow the collection of waste, resulting in higher labor and operational costs.
Employees
As of April 9, 2016, we have approximately 180 full-time employees.  None of our employees are represented by a labor union.   We have not experienced any work stoppages and we believe that our relations with our employees are good.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
Our principal executive office is located at 12540 Broadwell Road, Suite 2104, Milton, Georgia and is an approximately 3,500 sq. ft. office space rented at a rate of $2,600 per month. We also lease approximately 8,500 sq. ft. of office space rented at a rate of $23,000 per month in Bridgeton, Missouri.  It is our belief that such space is adequate for our immediate office needs. Additional space may be required as we expand our business activities, but we do not foresee any significant difficulties in obtaining additional office facilities if deemed necessary.
44
Our principal property and equipment is comprised of land, a landfill, buildings, vehicles and equipment in the State of Missouri. In addition, we lease real property and own a landfill.  These properties are sufficient to meet the Company's current operational needs; however, the Company is exploring the potential acquisition and/or leasing of additional properties pursuant to its growth strategies.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PERSONS, PROMOTERS AND CERTAIN CONTROL PERSONS

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
General
Our authorized capital stock consists of 75,000,000 shares of common stock, par value of $0.025 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value of $0.001 per share. As of June 8, 2016 there were 25,554,867 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding held by 42 holders of record. We currently have (i) 51 shares of Series A Preferred Stock authorized of which 51 shares of Series A Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding and (ii) 71,210 shares of Series B Preferred Stock authorized of which 71,210 shares of Series B Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding.
Common Stock
Each share of our common stock entitles its holder to one vote in the election of each director and on all other matters voted on generally by our stockholders. No share of our common stock affords any cumulative voting rights. This means that the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares voting for the election of directors can elect all directors to be elected if they choose to do so.
Holders of our common stock will be entitled to dividends in such amounts and at such times as our Board of Directors in its discretion may declare out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. We currently do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on the common stock in the foreseeable future. Any future dividends will be paid at the discretion of our Board of Directors after taking into account various factors, including:
50
●
general business conditions;
●
industry practice;
●
our financial condition and performance;
●
our future prospects;
●
our cash needs and capital investment plans;
●
our obligations to holders of any preferred stock we may issue;
●
income tax consequences; and
●
the restrictions New York and other applicable laws and our credit arrangements may impose, from time to time.
If we liquidate or dissolve our business, the holders of our common stock will share ratably in all our assets that are available for distribution to our stockholders after our creditors are paid in full and the holders of all series of our outstanding preferred stock, if any, receive their liquidation preferences in full.
Our common stock has no preemptive rights and is not convertible or redeemable or entitled to the benefits of any sinking or repurchase fund.
Preferred Stock
General
The Company has 5,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock par value $0.001 per share, which have two classes. The Series A Preferred Stock has 51 shares issued and outstanding and the Series B Preferred Stock has 71,210 shares issued and outstanding.
Our Board has the authority, within the limitations and restrictions in our certificate of incorporation, to issue shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of any series, without further vote or action by the stockholders. The issuance of shares of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in our control without further action by the stockholders. The issuance of shares of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock. In some circumstances, this issuance could have the effect of decreasing the market price of our common stock.
Undesignated preferred stock may enable our Board to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of our company 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 may adversely affect the rights of our common stockholders. For example, any shares of preferred stock issued 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. As a result, the issuance of shares of preferred stock, or the issuance of rights to purchase shares of preferred stock, may discourage an unsolicited acquisition proposal or bids for our common stock or may otherwise adversely affect the market price of our common stock or any existing preferred stock.
51
Series A Preferred Stock
Each share of the Series A preferred Stock has no conversion rights, is senior to any other class or series of capital stock of the Company and special voting rights. Each one (1) share of Series A Preferred Stock shall have voting rights equal to (x) 0.019607 multiplied by the total issued and outstanding Common Stock eligible to vote at the time of the respective vote (the "Numerator"), divided by (y)  0.49, Minus (z) the Numerator.
Series B Preferred Stock
Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive when and if declared by the Board of Directors cumulative dividends at the rate of twelve percent (12%) of the Original Issue Price.  In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, either voluntary or involuntary, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, immediately prior and in preference to any distribution to holders of the Company's common stock, an amount per share equal to the sum of $100.00 and any accrued and unpaid dividends of the Series B Preferred Stock.  Each share of Series B Preferred Stock may be converted at the option of the holder into the Company's common stock.  The shares shall be converted using the "Conversion Formula" set forth in the Series B Preferred Stock Certificate of Designations, which is equal to the Original Issue Price divided by 75% of the average closing bid price of the Common Stock for the five (5) consecutive trading days ending on the trading day of the receipt by the Company of the applicable notice of conversion.
Warrants
The Company has outstanding warrants issued to Goldman Sachs for the purchase of shares of the Company's common stock equivalent to a 6.5% of the total number of outstanding shares of the Company's common stock on a fully-diluted basis, exercisable on or before December 22, 2023 (the "Goldman Sachs Warrants") The Goldman Sachs Warrants grant the holder certain other rights, including:
·
put rights, providing that the holder may demand that the Company purchase all of such warrant from the holder for cash upon the earliest to occur of (i) the Maturity Date, (ii) the payment of at least 75% of the obligations under the Credit Agreement, (iii) an uncured event of default and (iv) a Sale Transactions (as defined in the Goldman Sachs Warrants);
·
demand registration rights, providing that the holder may demand that the Company file registration statements, including a shelf registration statement (if the Company is eligible at such time to utilize a shelf registration for the Warrant Shares) at any time;
·
piggyback registration rights, providing that the holder be given notice of a proposed registration of Equity Securities in connection with an underwritten public offering of such Equity Securities and upon request of holder, the Company shall cause such Warrant Shares to be registered;
·
preemptive rights to participate pro rata in raises of Senior Capital (Equity Securities, indebtedness, debt securities other than Common Shares (or Equity Securities convertible or exercisable or exchangeable (directly or indirectly) for Common Shares) or first lien indebtedness for borrowed money.;
·
information rights and the right to appoint a non-voting observer to the Company's Board of Directors;
·
and indemnification rights.
The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete; please refer to the Goldman Sachs Warrants, Exhibit 4.6, hereof.
In connection with subscriptions pursuant to a private placement offering during 2016, the Company granted "true-up" rights with respect to subscription agreements in the aggregate amount of $1,600,000,  with such agreements providing that the Company shall issue additional shares of Common Stock in the event that, prior to the first anniversary of such subscription agreement, an investor sells all of the Common Stock purchased under such subscription agreement and receives less than the full amount of the purchase price paid under such subscription agreement.
In connection with subscriptions pursuant to a second private placement offering during 2016, the Company issued warrants to purchase Common Stock (the "Private Placement Warrants"). In the event that, for a six-month period beginning six months from the date of such a subscription (subject to extension under certain circumstances), one or more of such subscribers were to sell all shares of Common Stock purchased by such subscriber pursuant to such offering and fail to receive proceeds equal to or in excess of the aggregate purchase price paid by such subscriber for such shares, such subscriber could exercise the Private Placement Warrant, requiring the Company to, at its election, (i) issue to such subscriber the number of shares of Common Stock equivalent to amount by which such purchase price exceeds such sale proceeds, valued at the average closing price for the Common Stock on the primary trading market on the three (3) trading days preceding the date of exercise or (ii) redeem such shortfall amount in cash. The Private Placement Warrants may be exercised more than once each, in the event that sale proceeds, including shares issued pursuant to a Private Placement Warrant, continue to fall short of the original purchase price and the Company has not elected to redeem such Private Placement Warrant for cash.
Options
There are no options currently outstanding.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION
OF SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Our directors and officers are indemnified as provided by the Nevada corporate law and our Bylaws.  We have agreed to indemnify each of our directors and certain officers against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions described above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than our payment of expenses incurred or paid by our director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

MERIDIAN WASTE SOLUTIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2016
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND ORGANIZATION
Meridian Waste Solutions, Inc. (the "Company" or "Meridian") is currently operating under five separate Limited Liability Companies:
(1) Here To Serve Missouri Waste Division, LLC ("HTSMWD"), a Missouri Limited Liability Company;
(2) Here To Serve Georgia Waste Division, LLC ("HTSGWD"), a Georgia Limited Liability Company;
(3) Meridian Land Company, LLC ("MLC"), a Georgia Limited Liability Company;
(4) Here to Serve Technology, LLC ("HTST"), a Georgia Limited Liability Company; and
(5) Christian Disposal, LLC and subsidiary ("CD"), a Missouri Limited Liability Company.
On January 7, 2015, in an effort to give investors a more concentrated presence in the waste industry the Company sold the assets of HTST to Mobile Science Technologies, Inc., a Georgia corporation (MSTI), a related party due to being owned and managed by some of the shareholders of the Company. On this date HTST ceased operations and became a dormant Limited Liability Company ("LLC"). Currently, Meridian is formalizing plans to dissolve HTST, in which this LLC will cease to exist.
In 2014, HTSMWD purchased the assets of a large solid waste disposal company in the St. Louis, MO market. This acquisition is considered the platform company for future acquisitions in the solid waste disposal industry. HTSGWD was created to facilitate expansion in this industry throughout the Southeast.
The Company is primarily in the business of residential and commercial waste disposal and hauling and has contracts with various cities and municipalities. The majority of the Company's customers are located in the St. Louis metropolitan and surrounding areas.
Acquisition of Christian Disposal, LLC and Eagle Ridge Landfill, LLC
On December 22, 2015, Meridian Waste Solutions, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") completed its acquisition of Christian Disposal LLC, and subsidiary ("Christian Purchase Agreement"). Pursuant to the Christian Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of Christian Disposal, which is integrated into the operations of the Company; refer to intangible assets and acquisition footnote below.
Simultaneous with the closing thereof, Christian Disposal LLC, and subsidiary, entered into a Lease Agreement, in which, the Company leased 4551 Commerce Avenue, High Ridge, Missouri, for a five-year term at a monthly rent of $6,500. Additionally, the Company entered into an employment agreement with an executive employee for a term of five years.
Concurrently, the Company completed an asset purchase agreement with WCA Waste Corporation (the "Eagle Purchase Agreement"). The Company acquired all of the assets of Eagle Ridge Landfill, LLC ("ERL"), its rights and properties related to such business of ERL, which includes certain assets and operations of the Eagle Ridge Hauling Business ("ERH") and certain debts, which is now operating under Meridian Land Company, LLC. Refer to intangible assets and acquisition footnote below.
Recapitalization
On October 17, 2014 Here to Serve Missouri Waste Division, LLC, (HTSMWD) a Missouri Limited Liability Company, which is the historical business, entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with the Company and the sole member of HTSMWD whereby the Company agreed to acquire the membership interest of HTSMWD, HTST and HTSGWD in exchange for 9,054,134 shares of the Company's common stock. This transaction was closed on October 17, 2014 and HTSMWD became wholly-owned by the Company. The Company is deemed to have issued 1,139,284 shares of common stock which represents the outstanding common shares of the Company just prior to the closing of the transaction.

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND ORGANIZATION (CONTINUED)
At closing, the Company issued 9,054,134 shares of its common stock to the sole member of HTSMWD and the shareholders of the sole member who obtained approximately 90% control and management control of the Company. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization of HTSMWD, HTST and HTSGWD whereby HTSMWD is considered the acquirer for accounting purposes. The consolidated financial statements after the acquisition include the balance sheets of both companies and HTST and HTSGWD at historical cost, the historical results of HTSMWD, HTST and HTSGWD. All share and per share information in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes has been retroactively restated to reflect the recapitalization (see Explanation of Membership Interest Purchase Agreement below).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2016, the Company had negative working capital of $4,613,287. This lack of liquidity is mitigated by the Company's ability to generate positive cash flow from operating activities. In the three months ended March 31, 2016, cash generated from operating activities, excluding one-time acquisition and transition expenses of approximately $467,000, was approximately $408,000. In addition, as of March 31, 2016, the Company had approximately $1,767,000 in cash and cash equivalents and $1,947,000 in short-term investments to cover its short term cash requirements. Further, the Company has approximately $12,850,000 of borrowing capacity on its multi-draw term loans and revolving commitments

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Short-term Investments
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Short-term investments consist of investments that have a remaining maturity of less than one year as of the date of the balance sheet.
Management determines the appropriate classification of short-term investments at the time of purchase and evaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. All short-term investments to date have been classified as held-to-maturity and carried at amortized costs, which approximates fair market value, on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, interest income of $2,139 and $0, respectively, was recorded related to the held-to-maturity securities. Our short-term investments' contractual maturities occur before March 31, 2017.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, account payable, accrued expenses, and notes payable. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these consolidated financial statements.
Derivative Instruments
The Company enters into financing arrangements that consist of freestanding derivative instruments or are hybrid instruments that contain embedded derivative features. The Company accounts for these arrangements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification topic 815, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities ("ASC 815") as well as related interpretations of this standard. In accordance with this standard, derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and are measured at fair values with gains or losses recognized in earnings. Embedded derivatives that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract are bifurcated and are recognized at fair value with changes in fair value recognized as either a gain or loss in earnings. The Company determines the fair value of derivative instruments and hybrid instruments based on available market data using appropriate valuation models, considering of the rights and obligations of each instrument.
The Company estimates fair values of derivative financial instruments using various techniques (and combinations thereof) that are considered consistent with the objective measuring fair values. In selecting the appropriate technique, the Company considers, among other factors, the nature of the instrument, the market risks that it embodies and the expected means of settlement. For less complex derivative instruments, such as freestanding warrants, the Company generally use the Black Scholes model, adjusted for the effect of dilution, because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including trading volatility, estimated terms, dilution and risk free rates) necessary to fair value these instruments. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques (such as Black-Scholes model) are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of our
common stock. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income (expense) going forward will reflect the volatility in these estimates and assumption changes. Under the terms of this accounting standard, increases in the trading price of the Company's common stock and increases in fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative expense. Conversely, decreases in the trading price of the Company's common stock and decreases in trading fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative income.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company periodically reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less that the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset's estimated fair value and its book value. During the three months ending March 31, 2016, the Company experienced no losses due to impairment.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740-10, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.
The Company follows the provisions of the ASC 740 -10 related to, Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits.
The Company analyzes its tax positions by utilizing ASC 740-10-25 Definition of Settlement, which provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits and provides that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion of an examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open. As of March 31, 2016, tax years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013 are still potentially subject to audit by the taxing authorities.
Use of Estimates
Management estimates and judgments are an integral part of consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). We believe that the critical accounting policies described in this section address the more significant estimates required of management when preparing our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. We consider an accounting estimate critical if changes in the estimate may have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. We believe that the accounting estimates employed are appropriate and resulting balances are reasonable; however, actual results could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustment to these balances in future periods.

Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at management's estimate of net realizable value. At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 the Company had approximately $2,641,000 and $2,326,000 of gross trade receivables, respectively.
Our reported balance of accounts receivable, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, represents our estimate of the amount that ultimately will be realized in cash. We review the adequacy and adjust our allowance for doubtful accounts on an ongoing basis, using historical payment trends and the age of the receivables and knowledge of our individual customers. However, if the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, additional allowances may be required. At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 the Company had approximately $627,000 and $618,000 recorded for the allowance for doubtful accounts, respectively.
Advertising costs
Advertising costs, except for costs associated with direct-response advertising, are charged to operations when incurred. The costs of direct-response advertising are capitalized and amortized over the period during which future benefits are expected to be received. The Company did not capitalize any advertising for the three months ended March 31, 2016
.
Advertising expenses were approximately $12,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016
.
Property, plant and equipment
The cost of property, plant, and equipment is depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets utilizing the straight-line method of depreciation. The cost of leasehold improvements is depreciated (amortized) over the lesser of the length of the related leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed when incurred and major repairs will be capitalized and expensed if it benefits future periods.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for potential impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment at least annually. The Company has intangible assets related to its purchase of Meridian Waste Services, LLC, Christian Disposal LLC and Eagle Ridge Landfill, LLC, which are further discussed in the notes below.
Investment in Related Party Affiliate
The Company has an investment in a privately held corporation in the mobile apps industry. As the Company exercises significant influence on this entity, this investment is recorded using the equity method of accounting. The Company monitors this investment for impairment and makes appropriate reductions in the carrying value if the Company determines that an impairment charge is required based primarily on the financial condition and near-term prospect of this entity.

Goodwill
Goodwill is the excess of our purchase cost over the fair value of the net assets of acquired businesses. We do not amortize goodwill, but as discussed in the impairment of long lived assets section above, we assess our goodwill for impairment at least annually.
Website Development Costs
The Company accounts for website development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 350-50 "Website Development Costs". Accordingly, all costs incurred in the planning stage are expensed as incurred, costs incurred in the website application and infrastructure development stage that meet specific criteria are capitalized and costs incurred in the day to day operation of the website are expensed as incurred.
Landfill Accounting
Capitalized landfill costs
Cost basis of landfill assets — We capitalize various costs that we incur to make a landfill ready to accept waste. These costs generally include expenditures for land (including the landfill footprint and required landfill buffer property); permitting; excavation; liner material and installation; landfill leachate collection systems; landfill gas collection systems; environmental monitoring equipment for groundwater and landfill gas; and directly related engineering, capitalized interest, on-site road construction and other capital infrastructure costs. The cost basis of our landfill assets also includes asset retirement costs, which represent estimates of future costs associated with landfill final capping, closure and post-closure activities. These costs are discussed below.
Final capping, closure and post-closure costs — Following is a description of our asset retirement activities and our related accounting:
·
Final capping — Involves the installation of flexible membrane liners and geosynthetic clay liners, drainage and compacted soil layers and topsoil over areas of a landfill where total airspace capacity has been consumed. Final capping asset retirement obligations are recorded on a units-of-consumption basis as airspace is consumed related to the specific final capping event with a corresponding increase in the landfill asset. The final capping is accounted for as a discrete obligation and recorded as an asset and a liability based on estimates of the discounted cash flows and capacity associated with the final capping.
F-9
MERIDIAN WASTE SOLUTIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2016
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
·
Closure — Includes the construction of the final portion of methane gas collection systems (when required), demobilization and routine maintenance costs. These are costs incurred after the site ceases to accept waste, but before the landfill is certified as closed by the applicable state regulatory agency. These costs are recorded as an asset retirement obligation as airspace is consumed over the life of the landfill with a corresponding increase in the landfill asset. Closure obligations are recorded over the life of the landfill based on estimates of the discounted cash flows associated with performing closure activities.
·
Post-closure — Involves the maintenance and monitoring of a landfill site that has been certified closed by the applicable regulatory agency. Generally, we are required to maintain and monitor landfill sites for a 30-year period. These maintenance and monitoring costs are recorded as an asset retirement obligation as airspace is consumed over the life of the landfill with a corresponding increase in the landfill asset. Post-closure obligations are recorded over the life of the landfill based on estimates of the discounted cash flows associated with performing post-closure activities.
We develop our estimates of these obligations using input from our operations personnel, engineers and accountants. Our estimates are based on our interpretation of current requirements and proposed regulatory changes and are intended to approximate fair value. Absent quoted market prices, the estimate of fair value is based on the best available information, including the results of present value techniques. In many cases, we contract with third parties to fulfill our obligations for final capping, closure and post closure. We use historical experience, professional engineering judgment and quoted and actual prices paid for similar work to determine the fair value of these obligations. We are required to recognize these obligations at market prices whether we plan to contract with third parties or perform the work ourselves. In those instances where we perform the work with internal resources, the incremental profit margin realized is recognized as a component of operating income when the work is performed.
Once we have determined the final capping, closure and post-closure costs, we inflate those costs to the expected time of payment and discount those expected future costs back to present value. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 we inflated these costs in current dollars until the expected time of payment using an inflation rate of 2.5%. Accretion expense was approximately $42,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. We discounted these costs to present value using the credit-adjusted, risk-free rate effective at the time an obligation is incurred, consistent with the expected cash flow approach. Any changes in expectations that result in an upward revision to the estimated cash flows are treated as a new liability and discounted at the current rate while downward revisions are discounted at the historical weighted average rate of the recorded obligation. As a result, the credit adjusted, risk-free discount rate used to calculate the present value of an obligation is specific to each individual asset retirement obligation. The weighted average rate applicable to our long-term asset retirement obligations at March 31, 2016 is approximately 8.5%.
We record the estimated fair value of final capping, closure and post-closure liabilities for our landfills based on the capacity consumed through the current period. The fair value of final capping obligations is developed based on our estimates of the airspace consumed to date for the final capping. The fair value of closure and post-closure obligations is developed based on our estimates of the airspace consumed to date for the entire landfill and the expected timing of each closure and post-closure activity. Because these obligations are measured at estimated fair value using present value techniques, changes in the estimated cost or timing of future final capping, closure and post-closure activities could result in a material change in these liabilities, related assets and results of operations. We assess the appropriateness of the estimates used to develop our recorded balances annually, or more often if significant facts change.

MARCH 31, 2016
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Changes in inflation rates or the estimated costs, timing or extent of future final capping, closure and post-closure activities typically result in both (i) a current adjustment to the recorded liability and landfill asset and (ii) a change in liability and asset amounts to be recorded prospectively over either the remaining capacity of the related discrete final capping or the remaining permitted and expansion airspace (as defined below) of the landfill. Any changes related to the capitalized and future cost of the landfill assets are then recognized in accordance with our amortization policy, which would generally result in amortization expense being recognized prospectively over the remaining capacity of the final capping or the remaining permitted and expansion airspace of the landfill, as appropriate. Changes in such estimates associated with airspace that has been fully utilized result in an adjustment to the recorded liability and landfill assets with an immediate corresponding adjustment to landfill airspace amortization expense.
·
Remaining permitted airspace — Our engineers, in consultation with third-party engineering consultants and surveyors, are responsible for determining remaining permitted airspace at our landfills. The remaining permitted airspace is determined by an annual survey, which is used to compare the existing landfill topography to the expected final landfill topography.
·
Expansion airspace — We also include currently unpermitted expansion airspace in our estimate of remaining permitted and expansion airspace in certain circumstances. First, to include airspace associated with an expansion effort, we must generally expect the initial expansion permit application to be submitted within one year and the final expansion permit to be received within five years. Second, we must believe that obtaining the expansion permit is likely, considering the following criteria:
o
Personnel are actively working on the expansion of an existing landfill, including efforts to obtain land use and local, state or provincial approvals;
o
We have a legal right to use or obtain land to be included in the expansion plan;
o
There are no significant known technical, legal, community, business, or political restrictions or similar issues that could negatively affect the success of such expansion; and
o
Financial analysis has been completed based on conceptual design, and the results demonstrate that the expansion meets the Company's criteria for investment.
For unpermitted airspace to be initially included in our estimate of remaining permitted and expansion airspace, the expansion effort must meet all of the criteria listed above. These criteria are evaluated by our field-based engineers, accountants, managers and others to identify potential obstacles to obtaining the permits. Once the unpermitted airspace is included, our policy provides that airspace may continue to be included in remaining permitted and expansion airspace even if certain of these criteria are no longer met as long as we continue to believe we will ultimately obtain the permit, based on the facts and circumstances of a specific landfill.
When we include the expansion airspace in our calculations of remaining permitted and expansion airspace, we also include the projected costs for development, as well as the projected asset retirement costs related to the final capping, closure and post-closure of the expansion in the amortization basis of the landfill.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Once the remaining permitted and expansion airspace is determined in cubic yards, an airspace utilization factor ("AUF") is established to calculate the remaining permitted and expansion capacity in tons. The AUF is established using the measured density obtained from previous annual surveys and is then adjusted to account for future settlement. The amount of settlement that is forecasted will take into account several site-specific factors including current and projected mix of waste type, initial and projected waste density, estimated number of years of life remaining, depth of underlying waste, anticipated access to moisture through precipitation or recirculation of landfill leachate, and operating practices. In addition, the initial selection of the AUF is subject to a subsequent multi-level review by our engineering group, and the AUF used is reviewed on a periodic basis and revised as necessary. Our historical experience generally indicates that the impact of settlement at a landfill is greater later in the life of the landfill when the waste placed at the landfill approaches its highest point under the permit requirements.
After determining the costs and remaining permitted and expansion capacity at each of our landfill, we determine the per ton rates that will be expensed as waste is received and deposited at the landfill by dividing the costs by the corresponding number of tons. We calculate per ton amortization rates for the landfill for assets associated with each final capping, for assets related to closure and post-closure activities and for all other costs capitalized or to be capitalized in the future. These rates per ton are updated annually, or more often, as significant facts change.
It is possible that actual results, including the amount of costs incurred, the timing of final capping, closure and post-closure activities, our airspace utilization or the success of our expansion efforts could ultimately turn out to be significantly different from our estimates and assumptions. To the extent that such estimates, or related assumptions, prove to be significantly different than actual results, lower profitability may be experienced due to higher amortization rates or higher expenses; or higher profitability may result if the opposite occurs. Most significantly, if it is determined that expansion capacity should no longer be considered in calculating the recoverability of a landfill asset, we may be required to recognize an asset impairment or incur significantly higher amortization expense. If at any time management makes the decision to abandon the expansion effort, the capitalized costs related to the expansion effort are expensed immediately.

Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of arrangement exists, services have been provided, the seller's price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. The majority of the Company's revenues are generated from the fees charged for waste collection, transfer, disposal and recycling. The fees charged for our services are generally defined in service agreements and vary based on contract-specific terms such as frequency of service, weight, volume and the general market factors influencing a region's rate.
Deferred Revenue
The Company records deferred revenue for customers that were billed in advance of services. The balance in deferred revenue represents amounts billed in January, February, and March for services that will be provided during April, May, and June.
Cost of Services
Cost of services include all employment costs associated with waste collection, transfer and disposal, damage claims, landfill costs, personal property taxes associated with collection vehicles and other direct cost of the collection and disposal process.

Concentrations
The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, which could, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts; however, amounts in excess of the federally insured limit may be at risk if the bank experiences financial difficulties. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company's accounts at these institutions are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000. At March 31, 2016, the Company had $1,766,569 of cash in United States bank deposits, of which $959,985 was federally insured and $806,583 was not federally insured
.
Financial instruments which also potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade accounts receivable; however, concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivables are limited due to generally short payment terms.
For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company had one contract that accounted for approximately 12% of the Company's revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company had two contracts that accounted for approximately 51% of the Company's revenue, collectively.
Basic Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. At March 31, 2016 the Company had two convertible notes outstanding that are not convertible into common stock until June 2016. Additionally, the Company issued stock warrants for 1,673,559 common shares.
For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company had 832,859 of weighted-average common shares relating to the convertible debt, under the if-converted method, however, these shares are not dilutive because the Company recorded a loss during the fiscal year.
At March 31, 2016, and December 31, 2015 the Company had a series of convertible notes and warrants outstanding that could be converted into approximately, 2,506,418 and 2,548,559 common shares, respectively. These are not presented in the consolidated statements of operations since the company incurred a loss and the effect of these shares is anti- dilutive.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 718. To date, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options.
Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also require measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the "measurement date." The expense is recognized over the service period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company initially records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date.
The Company recorded stock based compensation expense of $3,545,422 and $1,486,265 during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which is included in compensation and related expense on the statement of operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

NOTE 7 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data and requires disclosures for assets and liabilities measured at fair value based on their level in the hierarchy. Also, ASC Topic 820 provides clarification that in circumstances, in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liabilities is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the techniques provided for in this update.
The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of input, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:
Level 1
- Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2
- Input other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets of liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the
asset or liabilities.
Level 3
- Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The following table sets forth the liabilities at March 31, 2016 and 2015, which is recorded on the balance sheet at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required, these are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement:

NOTE 9 - BONDING
In connection with normal business activities of a company in the solid waste disposal industry, Meridian may be required to acquire a performance bond. As part of the Company's December 22, 2015 acquisitions of Christian Disposal, LLC and Eagle Ridge Landfill, LLC, Meridian acquired a performance bond in the approximate amount of $7,400,000 with annual expenses of $221,000. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company had approximately $29,000 of expenses related to this performance bond and for the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company was not required to obtain a performance bond.
Note 10 - LITIGATION
The Company is involved in various lawsuits related to the operations
of its subsidiaries. Management believes that it has adequate insurance coverage and/or has appropriately accrued for the settlement of these claims. If applicable, claims that exceed amounts accrued and/or that are covered by insurance, management believes they are without merit and intends to vigorously defend and resolve with no material impact on financial condition.
NOTE 11 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Sale of Capitalized Software
On January 7, 2015, in an effort to give investors a more concentrated presence in the waste industry the Company sold the capitalized software assets of Here to Serve Technology, LLC (HTST) to Mobile Science Technologies, Inc., a Georgia corporation (MSTI), a related party due to being owned by some of the shareholders of the Company. No gain or loss was recognized on this transaction as the Company received equity equal to book value ($434,532) of the capitalized software in the exchange. This represents approximately 15% of the equity of MSTI and is reflected in the accompanying balance sheet as "investment in related party affiliate". The Company's investment of 15% of the common stock of MSTI is accounted for under the equity method because the company exercises significant influence over its operating and financial activities. Significant influence is exercised because both Companies have a Board Member in common. Accordingly, the investment in MSTI is carried at cost, adjusted for the Company's proportionate share of earnings or losses.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Meridian Waste Solutions, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Meridian Waste Solutions, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2015 and for the Period from January 1, 2014 to May 15, 2014 (the "Predecessor Company") and from the Period from Acquisition May 16, 2014 to December 31, 2014 (the "Successor Company"). These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Meridian Waste Solutions, Inc. and Subsidiaries at December 31, 2015 and 2014 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2015 and for the Period from January 1, 2014 to May 15, 2014 (the "Predecessor Company") and from the Period from Acquisition May 16, 2014 to December 31, 2014 (the "Successor Company"), in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND 2014
Note 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND ORGANIZATION
Meridian Waste Solutions, Inc. (formerly Brooklyn Cheesecake and Desserts Company, Inc.) (the "Company" or "Meridian") is currently operating under five separate Limited Liability Companies:
(1) Here To Serve Missouri Waste Division, LLC ("HTSMWD"), a Missouri Limited Liability Company;
(2) Here To Serve Georgia Waste Division, LLC ("HTSGWD"), a Georgia Limited Liability Company;
(3) Meridian Land Company, LLC ("MLC"), a Georgia Limited Liability Company;
(4) Here to Serve Technology, LLC ("HTST"), a Georgia Limited Liability Company; and
(5) Christian Disposal, LLC and subsidiary ("CD"), a Missouri Limited Liability Company.
On January 7, 2015, in an effort to give investors a more concentrated presence in the waste industry the Company sold the assets of HTST to Mobile Science Technologies, Inc., a Georgia corporation (MSTI), a related party due to being owned and managed by some of the shareholders of the Company. On this date HTST ceased operations and became a dormant Limited Liability Company ("LLC"). Currently, Meridian is formalizing plans to dissolve HTST, in which this LLC will cease to exist.
In 2014, HTSMWD purchased the assets of a large solid waste disposal company in the St. Louis, MO market. This acquisition is considered the platform company for future acquisitions in the solid waste disposal industry. HTSGWD was created to facilitate expansion in this industry throughout the Southeast.
The Company is primarily in the business of residential and commercial waste disposal and hauling and has contracts with various cities and municipalities. The majority of the Company's customers are located in the St. Louis metropolitan and surrounding areas.
Acquisition of Christian Disposal, LLC and Eagle Ridge Landfill, LLC
On December 22, 2015, Meridian Waste Solutions, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") completed its acquisition of Christian Disposal LLC, and subsidiary ("Christian Purchase Agreement"). Pursuant to the Christian Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of Christian Disposal, which is integrated into the operations of the Company; refer to intangible assets and acquisition footnote below.
Simultaneous with the closing thereof, Christian Disposal LLC, and subsidiary, entered into a Lease Agreement, in which, the Company leased 4551 Commerce Avenue, High Ridge, Missouri, for a five-year term at a monthly rent of $6,500. Additionally, the Company entered into an employment agreement with an executive employee for a term of five years.
Concurrently, the Company completed an asset purchase agreement with WCA Waste Corporation (the "Eagle Purchase Agreement"). The Company acquired all of the assets of Eagle Ridge Landfill, LLC ("ERL"), its rights and properties related to such business of ERL, which includes certain assets and operations of the Eagle Ridge Hauling Business ("ERH") and certain debts, which is now operating under Meridian Land Company, LLC. Refer to intangible assets and acquisition footnote below.

Change in Reporting Entity
The merger of Here to Serve Holding Corp. (Here to Serve), a Delaware Corporation, and Meridian Waste Services, LLC became effective May 15, 2014. The merger was accounted for by the Company using business combination accounting. Under this method, the purchase price paid by the acquirer is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date based on the fair value. By the application of "pushdown" accounting, our assets, liabilities and equity were accordingly adjusted to fair value on May 15, 2014. Determining the fair value of certain assets and liabilities assumed is judgmental in nature and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions.
At the time of merger Here to Serve was a company with nominal operations whereas Meridian Waste Services, LLC consisted of the active and carry-forward business. Accordingly Meridian Waste Services, LLC is deemed to be the predecessor entity and as such is presented as the comparable financial statements. As such our financial statements are presented in two distinct periods to indicate the application of two different basis of accounting. Periods prior to May 15, 2014 are identified herein as "Predecessor," while periods subsequent to the Here to Serve merger are identified as "Successor." As a result of the change in basis of accounting from historical cost to reflect the Here to Serve's purchase cost, the financial statements for Predecessor periods are not comparable to those of Successor periods.

MERIDIAN WASTE SOLUTIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND 2014
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounting Basis
The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP" accounting).
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 include the operations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Here To Serve Missouri Waste Division, LLC, Meridian Land Company, LLC, Here to Serve Technology, LLC and Christian Disposal, LLC. The following two subsidiaries of the Company, Here To Serve Georgia Waste Division, LLC and Here to Serve Technology, LLC, a Georgia Limited Liability Company had no operations during the period.
The consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 include the operations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Here To Serve Missouri Waste Division, LLC and Here To Serve Technology, LLC. The following subsidiary of the Company, Here To Serve Georgia Waste Division, LLC had no operations during the period.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, account payable, accrued expenses, and notes payable. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these consolidated financial statements.
Derivative Instruments
The Company enters into financing arrangements that consist of freestanding derivative instruments or are hybrid instruments that contain embedded derivative features. The Company accounts for these arrangements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification topic 815, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities ("ASC 815") as well as related interpretations of this standard. In accordance with this standard, derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and are measured at fair values with gains or losses recognized in earnings. Embedded derivatives that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract are bifurcated and are recognized at fair value with changes in fair value recognized as either a gain or loss in earnings. The Company determines the fair value of derivative instruments and hybrid instruments based on available market data using appropriate valuation models, considering all of the rights and obligations of each instrument.
F-36
MERIDIAN WASTE SOLUTIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND 2014
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
The Company estimates fair values of derivative financial instruments using various techniques (and combinations thereof) that are considered consistent with the objective measuring fair values. In selecting the appropriate technique, the Company considers, among other factors, the nature of the instrument, the market risks that it embodies and the expected means of settlement. For less complex derivative instruments, such as freestanding warrants, the Company generally use the Black-Scholes model, adjusted for the effect of dilution, because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including trading volatility, estimated terms, dilution and risk free rates) necessary to fair value these instruments. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques (such as Black-Scholes model) are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of our common stock. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income (expense) going forward will reflect the volatility in these estimates and assumption changes. Under the terms of this accounting standard, increases in the trading price of the Company's common stock and increases in fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative expense. Conversely, decreases in the trading price of the Company's common stock and decreases in trading fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative income.
Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company periodically reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less that the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset's estimated fair value and its book value. During the year ending December 31, 2015, the Company experienced no losses due to impairment.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740-10, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.
The Company follows the provisions of the ASC 740 -10 related to, Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon
settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits.

MERIDIAN WASTE SOLUTIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND 2014
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
The Company analyzes its tax positions by utilizing ASC 740-10-25 Definition of Settlement, which provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits and provides that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion of an examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open. As of December 31, 2015, tax years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, 2012 are still potentially subject to audit by the taxing authorities.
Use of Estimates
Management estimates and judgments are an integral part of consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). We believe that the critical accounting policies described in this section address the more significant estimates required of management when preparing our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. We consider an accounting estimate critical if changes in the estimate may have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. We believe that the accounting estimates employed are appropriate and resulting balances are reasonable; however, actual results could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustment to these balances in future periods.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at management's estimate of net realizable value. At December 31, 2015 and 2014 the Company had approximately $2,326,000 and $660,000 of gross trade receivables, respectively.
Our reported balance of accounts receivable, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, represents our estimate of the amount that ultimately will be realized in cash. We review the adequacy and adjust our allowance for doubtful accounts on an ongoing basis, using historical payment trends and the age of the receivables and knowledge of our individual customers. However, if the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, additional allowances may be required. At December 31, 2015 and 2014 the Company had approximately $618,000 and $71,000 recorded for the allowance for doubtful accounts, respectively.
Advertising costs
Advertising costs, except for costs associated with direct-response advertising, are charged to operations when incurred. The costs of direct-response advertising are capitalized and amortized over the period during which future benefits are expected to be received. The Company did not capitalize any advertising for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Advertising expenses were approximately $79,000 and $65,000 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Property, plant and equipment
The cost of property, plant, and equipment is depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets utilizing the straight-line method of depreciation. The cost of leasehold improvements is depreciated (amortized) over the lesser of the length of the related leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed when incurred and major repairs will be capitalized and expensed if it benefits future periods.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for potential impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment at least annually. The Company has intangible assets related to its purchase of Meridian Waste
Services, LLC, Christian Disposal LLC and Eagle Ridge Landfill, LLC, which are further discussed in the notes below.
During 2015 and 2014, the Company assessed its intangible assets, based on estimated future cash flows and concluded that the carrying amount of its intangible assets did not exceed its fair value.
Investment in Related Party Affiliate
The Company has an investment in a privately held corporation in the mobile apps industry. As the Company exercises significant influence on this entity, this investment is recorded using the equity method of accounting. The Company monitors this investment for impairment and makes appropriate reductions in the carrying value if the Company determines that an impairment charge is required based primarily on the financial condition and near-term prospect of this entity.
Goodwill
Goodwill is the excess of our purchase cost over the fair value of the net assets of acquired businesses. We do not amortize goodwill, but as discussed in the impairment of long lived assets section above, we assess our goodwill for impairment at least annually.
Capitalized Software
The Company acquired a software product that is under further development. This asset was being amortized over a three to five year period using the straight-line method of depreciation for book purposes beginning when the software is completed.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND 2014
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Capitalized Software - Continued
The Company capitalizes internal software development costs subsequent to establishing technological feasibility of a software application in accordance with guidelines established by "ASC 985-20-25" Accounting for the costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed, requiring certain software development costs to be capitalized upon the establishment of technological feasibility. The establishment of technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of the recoverability of these costs require considerable judgement by management with respect to certain external factors such as anticipated future revenue, estimated economic life and changes in software and hardware technologies. Amortization of the capitalized software development costs begins when the product is available for general release to customers. Capitalized costs are amortized over the remaining estimated economic life of the product. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company has capitalized costs associated with the development of several mobile science technology products and mobile apps that has not been placed into service. In 2015, the Company sold the software to a related party. Refer to the related party note below for further discussion.
Website Development Costs
The Company accounts for website development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 350-50 "Website Development Costs". Accordingly, all costs incurred in the planning stage are expensed as incurred, costs incurred in the website application and infrastructure development stage that meet specific criteria are capitalized and costs incurred in the day to day operation of the website are expensed as incurred.
Landfill Accounting
Capitalized landfill costs
Cost basis of landfill assets — We capitalize various costs that we incur to make a landfill ready to accept waste. These costs generally include expenditures for land (including the landfill footprint and required landfill buffer property); permitting; excavation; liner material and installation; landfill leachate collection systems; landfill gas collection systems; environmental monitoring equipment for groundwater and landfill gas; and directly related engineering, capitalized interest, on-site road construction and other capital infrastructure costs. The cost basis of our landfill assets also includes asset retirement costs, which represent estimates of future costs associated with landfill final capping, closure and post-closure activities. These costs are discussed below.
Final capping, closure and post-closure costs — Following is a description of our asset retirement activities and our related accounting:
·
Final capping — Involves the installation of flexible membrane liners and geosynthetic clay liners, drainage and compacted soil layers and topsoil over areas of a landfill where total airspace capacity has been consumed. Final capping asset retirement obligations are recorded on a units-of-consumption basis as airspace is consumed related to the specific final capping event with a corresponding increase in the landfill asset. The final capping is accounted for as a discrete obligation and recorded as an asset and a liability based on estimates of the discounted cash flows and capacity associated with the final capping.

MERIDIAN WASTE SOLUTIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND 2014
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
·
Closure — Includes the construction of the final portion of methane gas collection systems (when required), demobilization and routine maintenance costs. These are costs incurred after the site ceases to accept waste, but before the landfill is certified as closed by the applicable state regulatory agency. These costs are recorded as an asset retirement obligation as airspace is consumed over the life of the landfill with a corresponding increase in the landfill asset. Closure obligations are recorded over the life of the landfill based on estimates of the discounted cash flows associated with performing closure activities.
·
Post-closure — Involves the maintenance and monitoring of a landfill site that has been certified closed by the applicable regulatory agency. Generally, we are required to maintain and monitor landfill sites for a 30-year period. These maintenance and monitoring costs are recorded as an asset retirement obligation as airspace is consumed over the life of the landfill with a corresponding increase in the landfill asset. Post-closure obligations are recorded over the life of the landfill based on estimates of the discounted cash flows associated with performing post-closure activities.
We develop our estimates of these obligations using input from our operations personnel, engineers and accountants. Our estimates are based on our interpretation of current requirements and proposed regulatory changes and are intended to approximate fair value. Absent quoted market prices, the estimate of fair value is based on the best available information, including the results of present value techniques. In many cases, we contract with third parties to fulfill our obligations for final capping, closure and post closure. We use historical experience, professional engineering judgment and quoted and actual prices paid for similar work to determine the fair value of these obligations. We are required to recognize these obligations at market prices whether we plan to contract with third parties or perform the work ourselves. In those instances where we perform the work with internal resources, the incremental profit margin realized is recognized as a component of operating income when the work is performed.
Once we have determined the final capping, closure and post-closure costs, we inflate those costs to the expected time of payment and discount those expected future costs back to present value. During the year ended December 31, 2015 we inflated these costs in current dollars until the expected time of payment using an inflation rate of 2.5%. We discounted these costs to present value using the credit-adjusted, risk-free rate effective at the time an obligation is incurred, consistent with the expected cash flow approach. Any changes in expectations that result in an upward revision to the estimated cash flows are treated as a new liability and discounted at the current rate while downward revisions are discounted at the historical weighted average rate of the recorded obligation. As a result, the credit-adjusted, risk-free discount rate used to calculate the present value of an obligation is specific to each individual asset retirement obligation. The weighted average rate applicable to our long-term asset retirement obligations at December 31, 2015 is approximately 8.5%.
We record the estimated fair value of final capping, closure and post-closure liabilities for our landfills based on the capacity consumed through the current period. The fair value of final capping obligations is developed based on our estimates of the airspace consumed to date for the final capping. The fair value of closure and post-closure obligations is developed based on our estimates of the airspace consumed to date for the entire landfill and the expected timing of each closure and post-closure activity. Because these obligations are measured at estimated fair value using present value techniques, changes in the estimated cost or timing of future final capping, closure and post-closure activities could result in a material change in these liabilities, related assets and results of operations. We assess the appropriateness of the estimates used to develop our recorded balances annually, or more often if significant facts change.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Changes in inflation rates or the estimated costs, timing or extent of future final capping, closure and post-closure activities typically result in both (i) a current adjustment to the recorded liability and landfill asset and (ii) a change in liability and asset amounts to be recorded prospectively over either the remaining capacity of the related discrete final capping or the remaining permitted and expansion airspace (as defined below) of the landfill. Any changes related to the capitalized and future cost of the landfill assets are then recognized in accordance with our amortization policy, which would generally result in amortization expense being recognized prospectively over the remaining capacity of the final capping or the remaining permitted and expansion airspace of the landfill, as appropriate. Changes in such estimates associated with airspace that has been fully utilized result in an adjustment to the recorded liability and landfill assets with an immediate corresponding adjustment to landfill airspace amortization expense.
·
Remaining permitted airspace — Our engineers, in consultation with third-party engineering consultants and surveyors, are responsible for determining remaining permitted airspace at our landfills. The remaining permitted airspace is determined by an annual survey, which is used to compare the existing landfill topography to the expected final landfill topography.
·
Expansion airspace — We also include currently unpermitted expansion airspace in our estimate of remaining permitted and expansion airspace in certain circumstances. First, to include airspace associated with an expansion effort, we must generally expect the initial expansion permit application to be submitted within one year and the final expansion permit to be received within five years. Second, we must believe that obtaining the expansion permit is likely, considering the following criteria:
o
Personnel are actively working on the expansion of an existing landfill, including efforts to obtain land use and local, state or provincial approvals;
o
We have a legal right to use or obtain land to be included in the expansion plan;
o
There are no significant known technical, legal, community, business, or political restrictions or similar issues that could negatively affect the success of such expansion; and
o
Financial analysis has been completed based on conceptual design, and the results demonstrate that the expansion meets the Company's criteria for investment.
For unpermitted airspace to be initially included in our estimate of remaining permitted and expansion airspace, the expansion effort must meet all of the criteria listed above. These criteria are evaluated by our field-based engineers, accountants, managers and others to identify potential obstacles to obtaining the permits. Once the unpermitted airspace is included, our policy provides that airspace may continue to be included in remaining permitted and expansion airspace even if certain of these criteria are no longer met as long as we continue to believe we will ultimately obtain the permit, based on the facts and circumstances of a specific landfill.
When we include the expansion airspace in our calculations of remaining permitted and expansion airspace, we also include the projected costs for development, as well as the projected asset retirement costs related to the final capping, closure and post-closure of the expansion in the amortization basis of the landfill.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Once the remaining permitted and expansion airspace is determined in cubic yards, an airspace utilization factor ("AUF") is established to calculate the remaining permitted and expansion capacity in tons. The AUF is established using the measured density obtained from previous annual surveys and is then adjusted to account for future settlement. The amount of settlement that is forecasted will take into account several site-specific factors including current and projected mix of waste type, initial and projected waste density, estimated number of years of life remaining, depth of underlying waste, anticipated access to moisture through precipitation or recirculation of landfill leachate, and operating practices. In addition, the initial selection of the AUF is subject to a subsequent multi-level review by our engineering group, and the AUF used is reviewed on a periodic basis and revised as necessary. Our historical experience generally indicates that the impact of settlement at a landfill is greater later in the life of the landfill when the waste placed at the landfill approaches its highest point under the permit requirements.
After determining the costs and remaining permitted and expansion capacity at each of our landfill, we determine the per ton rates that will be expensed as waste is received and deposited at the landfill by dividing the costs by the corresponding number of tons. We calculate per ton amortization rates for the landfill for assets associated with each final capping, for assets related to closure and post-closure activities and for all other costs capitalized or to be capitalized in the future. These rates per ton are updated annually, or more often, as significant facts change.
It is possible that actual results, including the amount of costs incurred, the timing of final capping, closure and post-closure activities, our airspace utilization or the success of our expansion efforts could ultimately turn out to be significantly different from our estimates and assumptions. To the extent that such estimates, or related assumptions, prove to be significantly different than actual results, lower profitability may be experienced due to higher amortization rates or higher expenses; or higher profitability may result if the opposite occurs. Most significantly, if it is determined that expansion capacity should no longer be considered in calculating the recoverability of a landfill asset, we may be required to recognize an asset impairment or incur significantly higher amortization expense. If at any time management makes the decision to abandon the expansion effort, the capitalized costs related to the expansion effort are expensed immediately.

Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when there is persuasive evidence that services have been provided and a collection is reasonably assured. The majority of the Company's revenues are generated from the fees charged for waste collection, transfer, disposal and recycling. The fees charged for our services are generally defined in service agreements and vary based on contract-specific terms such as frequency of service, weight, volume and the general market factors influencing a region's rate.
Deferred Revenue
The Company records deferred revenue for customers that were billed in advance of services. The balance in deferred revenue represents amounts billed in October, November and December for services that will be provided during January, February and March.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Cost of Services
Cost of services include all employment costs associated with waste collection, transfer and disposal, damage claims, landfill costs, personal property taxes associated with collection vehicles and other direct cost of the collection and disposal process.
Concentrations
The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, which could, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts; however, amounts in excess of the federally insured limit may be at risk if the bank experiences financial difficulties. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company's accounts at these institutions are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000.
Financial instruments which also potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade accounts receivable; however, concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivables are limited due to generally short payment terms.
The Company has two contracts that account for a large portion of the Company's revenue. During the year ended December 31, 2015, these contracts accounted for approximately 44% of the Company's revenues and less than 5% of the Company's accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2015. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company had two customers that accounted for approximately 46% of the Company's revenues and approximately 53% of the Company's accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2014. The Company did not have any other customers that represented a significant portion of the Company's revenue or account receivables for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Basic Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. At December 31, 2015 the Company had two convertible notes outstanding that is not convertible into common stock until June 2016. Additionally, the Company issued stock warrants for 1,673,559 common shares.
For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company had 1,673,559 of weighted-average common shares relating to the convertible debt, under the if-converted method, however, these shares are not dilutive because the Company recorded a loss during the fiscal year.
At December 31, 2015, and 2014 the Company had a series of convertible notes and warrants outstanding that could be converted into approximately, 2,548,559 and 291,047 common shares, respectively. These are not presented in the consolidated statements of operations since the company incurred a loss and the effect of these shares is anti- dilutive.

Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 718. To date, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options.
Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also require measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.
Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the "measurement date." The expense is recognized over the service period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company initially records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date.
The Company recorded stock based compensation expense of $7,356,000 and $339,000 during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

Derivative Liability – Interest Rate Swap
The Company sometimes borrows at variable rates and uses interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of future interest payments, which have the economic effect of converting borrowings from floating rates to fixed rates. The interest rate swaps allow the Company to raise long-term borrowings at floating rates and swap them into fixed rates that are lower than those available if it borrowed at fixed rates directly. Under the interest rate swaps, the Company agrees with other parties to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed contract rates and floating rate interest amounts calculated by reference to the agreed notional principal amounts.

At December 31, 2014, the Company had $5,414,634 of non-amortizing variable rate debt outstanding with interest payments due on a monthly basis. The note accrues interest at the 1-month LIBOR plus 4.25%. In order to hedge interest rate risk, the Company entered into an interest rate swap for a notional amount of $5,414,634 at fixed rate of 4.75%. Under the swap agreement, the Company pays the fixed rate on the $5,414,634 notional
amount on a monthly basis, and receives the 1-month LIBOR plus 4.25% on a monthly basis. Payments are settled on a net basis, and the Company has effectively converted its variable-rate debt into fixed-rate debt with an effective interest rate of 4.75%. As discussed above, the debts to Comerica were paid off from the funding received from Praesidian. The net settlement amount of the interest rate swap as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $0 and $40,958, respectively.

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC-740) "Accounting for Income Taxes", which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.
The Company had a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $12.3 million at December 31, 2015 and had no Federal or State income tax obligations. The Company had no significant tax effects resulting from the temporary differences that give rise to deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 other than net operating losses.
The Company's loss carry forward of approximately $12.3 may offset future taxable income through tax year 2035. However, in accordance with IRC Section 382, the availability and utilization of the losses may be severely limited since the business combination that occurred on October 17, 2014 triggered the IRC Section 382 limitations.
Prior to October 17, 2014, the date of the reverse acquisition transaction discussed in Note 1 above, the operating entities were owned by unrelated third party partners/members, and as limited liability companies, the operating companies' losses for the period January 1, 2014 to October 17,2014 flowed through to such partners/members. Therefore, as there were no tax allocation arrangements with the previous partners/members, the Company has not recorded in these financials statements any current or deferred income tax expense, income tax liabilities or deferred tax assets/liabilities relating to such pre-acquisition activity (losses).
The table below summarizes the differences between the Company's effective tax rate and the statutory federal rate of 34% as follows for the periods ended December 31, 2015 and 2014:

NOTE 8 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data and requires disclosures for assets and liabilities measured at fair value based on their level in the hierarchy. Also, ASC Topic 820 provides clarification that in circumstances, in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liabilities is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the techniques provided for in this update.
The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of input, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:
Level 1
- Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2
- Input other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets of liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liabilities.
Level 3
- Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

NOTE 13 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Sale of Capitalized Software
On January 7, 2015, in an effort to give investors a more concentrated presence in the waste industry the Company sold the capitalized software assets of Here to Serve Technology, LLC (HTST) to Mobile Science Technologies, Inc., a Georgia corporation (MSTI), a related party due to being owned by some of the shareholders of the Company. No gain or loss was recognized on this transaction as the Company received equity equal to book value ($434,532) of the capitalized software in the exchange. This represents approximately 15% of the equity of MSTI and is reflected in the accompanying balance sheet as "investment in related party affiliate". The Company's investment of 15% of the common stock of MSTI is accounted for under the equity method because the company exercises significant influence, over its operating and financial activities. Significant influence is exercised because both Companies have a Board Member in common. Accordingly, the investment in MSTI is carried at cost, adjusted for the Company's proportionate share of earnings or losses.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Meridian Waste Solutions, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Meridian Waste Services, LLC (the "Predecessor Company") as of December 31, 2013 and the related statements of operations, changes in members' equity, and cash flows for the period from January 1, 2014 to May 15, 2014 and for the year ended December 31, 2013. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Predecessor Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Predecessor Company as of December 31, 2013 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the period from January 1, 2014 to May 15, 2014 and for the year ended December 31, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND ORGANIZATION
Nature of Operations
Meridian Waste Solutions, Inc. (formerly Brooklyn Cheesecake and Desserts Company, Inc.) (the "Company") is currently operating under three separate Limited Liability Companies; Here To Serve Missouri Waste Division, LLC ("HTSMWD"), a Missouri Limited Liability Company, Here To Serve Technology Division, LLC ("HTST), a Georgia Limited Liability Company and Here To Serve Georgia Waste Division, LLC ("HTSGWD"), a Georgia Limited Liability Company.
In 2014, HTSMWD purchased the assets of a large solid waste disposal company in the St. Louis, MO market. See
Explanation of Change in Accounting Basis
below. This acquisition is considered the platform company for future acquisitions in the solid waste disposal industry. HTSGWD was created to facilitate expansion in this industry throughout the Southeast. The Company is primarily in the business of residential and commercial waste hauling and has contracts with various cities and municipalities. The majority of the Company's customers are located in the St. Louis metropolitan area.
Through acquisitions and restructuring, HTST has repositioned the Company's presence in the software development industry. By acquiring products developed for the mobile app market and by shifting the focus of future development, HTST is anticipating significant expansion into this growing business segment.

This transaction was closed on October 17, 2014 and HTSMWD became wholly-owned by the Company. The Company is deemed to have issued 1,139,284 shares of common stock which represents the outstanding common shares of the Company just prior to the closing of the transaction.
At closing, the Company issued 9,054,134 shares of its common stock to the sole member of HTSMWD and the shareholders of the sole member who obtained approximately 90% control and management control of the Company. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization of HTSMWD, HTST and HTSGWD whereby HTSMWD is considered the acquirer for accounting purposes.

On October 17, 2014, the directors and majority shareholders of the Company approved the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated under the Purchase Agreement. The directors of Here to Serve and the Here to Serve Shareholders approved the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder. This closing of the Purchase
Agreement results in a change of control of the Company and the Company changed its business plan to that of HTSMWD.
Explanation of Change in Accounting Basis
The merger of Here to Serve Holding Corp. (Here to Serve), a Delaware Corporation, and Meridian Waste Services, LLC became effective May 15, 2014. The merger was accounted for by Here to Serve using business combination accounting. Under this method, the purchase price paid by the acquirer is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date based on the fair value. By the application of "push-down" accounting, our assets, liabilities and equity were accordingly adjusted to fair value on May 15, 2014. Determining the fair value of certain assets and liabilities assumed is judgmental in nature and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions.
At the time of merger Here to Serve was a company with nominal operations whereas Meridian Waste Services, LLC consisted of the active and carry-forward business. Accordingly Meridian Waste Services, LLC is deemed to be the predecessor entity and as such is presented as the comparable financial statements. As such our financial statements are presented in two distinct periods to indicate the application of two different basis of accounting. Periods prior to May 15, 2014 are identified herein as "Predecessor," while periods subsequent to the Here to Serve merger are identified as "Successor." As a result of the change in basis of accounting from historical cost to reflect the Here to Serve's purchase cost, the financial statements for Predecessor periods are not comparable to those of Successor periods.
Also, see Note 4 – Acquisition below.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 include the operations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Here To Serve Missouri Waste Division, LLC and Here To Serve Technology, LLC. The third subsidiary of the Company, Here To Serve Georgia Waste Division, LLC had no operations during the period.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications
Certain accounts and financial statement captions in the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period consolidated financial statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, other liabilities, accrued interest, notes payable, and an amount due to a related party. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these consolidated financial statements.
Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company periodically reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less that the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset's estimated fair value and its book value. During the year ending December 31, 2014, the Company experienced no losses due to impairment.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740-10, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.
The Company follows the provisions of the ASC 740 -10 related to,
Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions.
When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits.
The Company has adopted ASC 740-10-25
Definition of Settlement,
which provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits and provides that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion of an examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open. As of December 31, 2014, tax years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, 2011 are still potentially subject to audit by the taxing authorities.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date the consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Accounts Receivable
At December 31, 2014 the Company had $659,646 of gross trade receivables. Here to Serve – Missouri Waste Division, LLC, primarily owns these trade receivables. At December 31, 2013, Meridian Waste Services, LLC, Predecessor had $483,078 of gross trade receivables.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated collection losses that will be incurred in collection of receivables related to residential customers and commercial project invoices. The estimated losses are based on managements' evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable at the end of the accounting period. At December 31, 2014, an allowance of $71,167 was recorded. At December 31, 2013, Meridian Waste Services, LLC, Predecessor had an allowance of $42,509.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of assets acquired and costs incurred in connection with the development of the Company's capitalized software. See note below. The Company also has intangible assets related to the purchase of Meridian Waste Services, LLC. See Note 4 below. These intangibles are amortized over periods between 3 and 5 years.
Capitalized Software
The company acquired a software product that is under further development. This asset will be amortized over a three to five year period using the straight-line method of depreciation for book purposes beginning when the software is completed.
The company capitalizes internal software development costs subsequent to establishing technological feasibility of a software application in accordance with guidelines established by "ASC 985-20-25" Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed, requiring certain software development costs to be capitalized upon the establishment of technological feasibility. The establishment of technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of the recoverability of these costs require considerable judgement by management with respect to certain external factors such as anticipated
future revenue, estimated economic life and changes in software and hardware technologies. Amortization of the capitalized software development costs begins when the product is available for general release to customers. Capitalized costs are amortized over the remaining estimated economic life of the product. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company has capitalized costs associated with the development of several mobile science technology products and mobile apps that has not been placed into service.

Website Development Costs
The Company accounts for website development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 350-50 "Website Development Costs". Accordingly, all costs incurred in the planning stage are expensed as incurred, costs incurred in the website application and infrastructure development stage that meet
specific criteria are capitalized and costs incurred in the day to day operation of the website are expensed as incurred.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when there is persuasive evidence of that an arrangement exists, the revenue is fixed or determinable, the products are fully delivered or services have been provided and collection is reasonably assured.
The majority of the Company's revenues are generated from the fees charged for waste collection, transfer, disposal and recycling. The fees charged for our services are generally defined in service agreements and vary based on contract-specific terms such as frequency of service, weight, volume and the general market factors influencing a region's rate.
Deferred Revenue
The Company's Missouri Waste Division bills one month in advance for the following three months. The balance in deferred revenue represents amounts billed in October, November and December for services that will be provided during January, February and March.
Cost of Services
Cost of services include all employment costs associated with waste collection, transfer and disposal, damage claims, landfill costs, personal property taxes associated with collection vehicles and other direct cost of the collection and disposal process.
Concentration of Credit Risks
The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, which could, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts; however, amounts in excess of the federally insured limit may be at risk if the bank experiences financial difficulties. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company's accounts at these institutions are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000.
Financial instruments which also potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade accounts receivable; however, concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivables is limited due to generally short payment terms.
The Company's subsidiary, HTSMWD has two municipal contracts that account for a large portion of the Company's long-term contracted revenue. One contract accounted for 27% and 32% and the other accounted for 19% and 21% of HTS Waste's long-term contracted revenue for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 respectively.
Basic Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. A diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. At December 31, 2014 the Company had a series of convertible notes outstanding that could be converted into approximately 291,047 common shares. These are not presented in the statement of operations since the company incurred a loss and the effect of these shares is anti- dilutive.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 718. To date, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options.
Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial

The ASC also require measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.
Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the "measurement date." The expense is recognized over the service period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company initially records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date. The Company recorded stock based compensation expense of $338,860 and $0 during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

discussed above. The Company also had a loan from Here to Serve Holding Corp. due to expenses paid by Here to Serve on behalf of the Company prior to the recapitalization. This loan totaled $376,585 bringing total notes payable to $526,585.
At December 31, 2014, Here To Serve – Missouri Waste Division, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, had $10,183,333 in Debt, of which $1,357,143 is current and $8,826,190 is long term. $1,475,000 were notes Payable to the Sellers of Meridian as subordinated debt and $8,708,333 in Long Term Debt payable to Comerica Bank, the Company's Senior Lender. At close, the notes payable to the sellers were five-year term subordinated debt loans paying interest at 8%. The Company's Senior Secured Loan has an interest rate LIBOR plus 4.25% with a two-year term based on a seven-year amortization schedule. In addition, the Company has a working capital line of credit of $1,250,000 at 4.75% of which the Company has drawn down $1,085,160 as of December 31, 2014. Finally, there is CAPEX line of credit of $750,000, of which the Company has drawn down $590,000 as of December 31, 2014; again at 4.75% interest.
The Company sometimes borrow at variable rates and uses interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of future interest payments, which have the economic effect of converting borrowings from floating rates to fixed rates. The interest rate swaps allow the Company to raise long-term borrowings at floating rates and swap them into fixed rates that are lower than those available if it borrowed at fixed rates directly. Under the interest rate swaps, the Company agrees with other parties to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed contract rates and floating rate interest amounts calculated by reference to the agreed notional principal amounts.
At December 31, 2014, the Company has $5,634,146 of non-amortizing variable rate debt outstanding with interest payments due on a monthly basis. The note accrues interest at the 1-month LIBOR plus 4.25%. In order to hedge interest rate risk, the Company entered into an interest rate swap for a notional amount of $5,634,146 at fixed rate of 4.75%. Under the swap agreement, the Company pays the fixed rate on the $5,634,146 notional amount on a monthly basis, and receives the 1-month LIBOR plus 4.25% on a monthly basis. Payments are settled on a net basis, and the Company has effectively converted its variable-rate debt into fixed-rate debt with an effective interest rate of 4.75%. As of December 31, 2013, the net settlement amount of the interest rate swap was $40,958.

deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.
The Company had a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $4.9 million at December 31, 2014 and had no Federal or State income tax obligations. The Company had no significant tax effects resulting from the temporary differences that give rise to deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities for the year ended December 31, 2014 other than net operating losses.
The Company's loss carry forward of approximately $4.9 million may offset future taxable income through tax year 2034. However, in accordance with IRC Section 382, the availability and utilization of the losses may be severely limited since the business combination that occurred on October 17, 2014 triggered the IRC Section 382 limitations.
Prior to October 17, 2014, the date of the reverse acquisition transaction discussed in Note 1 above, the operating entities were owned by unrelated third party partners/members, and as limited liability companies, the operating companies' losses for the period January 1, 2014 to October 17,2014 flowed through to such partners/members.

NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)
The valuation allowance was increased by $549,760 during the year ended December 31, 2014.
NOTE 9 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
The Company has adopted new guidance under ASC Topic 820, effective January 1, 2009. New authoritative accounting guidance (ASC Topic 820-10-15) under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures, delayed the effective date of ASC Topic 820-10 for all
non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis, until 2009.
ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data and requires disclosures for assets and liabilities measured at fair value based on their level in the hierarchy. Further new authoritative accounting guidance (ASU No. 2009-05) under ASC Topic 820, provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the
identical liabilities is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the techniques provided for in this update.
The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of input, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:
Level 1
– Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2
– Input other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets of liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liabilities.
Level 3
– Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The following table sets forth the liabilities at December 31, 2014, which is recorded on the balance sheet at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required, these are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement:

NOTE 12 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In accordance with ASC 855-10, the Company has analyzed its operations subsequent to December 31, 2014 through the date these financial statements were issued and has determined that the following would be included as subsequent events.
Spinoff of Here to Serve Technology, LLC
On January 7, 2015, in an effort to give investors a more concentrated presence in the waste industry the Company sold the capitalized software assets of Here to Serve Technology, LLC to Mobile Science Technologies, Inc., a Georgia corporation (MSTI), a related party due to being owned by some of the shareholders of the Company. No gain or loss was recognized on this transaction as the Company received equity equal to book value ($434,532)of the capitalized software in the exchange.
This represents approximately 15% of the equity of MSTI.
It is management's expectations that the spinoff will benefit investors by strengthening the Company by becoming more streamlined in the waste industry and maintaining the financial growth potential of the investment in MSTI.
Issuance of Common Stock
During January, 2015, the Company issued 1,164,393 shares of common stock. These shares were issued to employees, employees of subsidiaries and outside vendors for services. The value of these shares was determined to be $1,630,150 using the securities closing price ($1.40) on January 2, 2015.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
New York Law
The NYBCL permits a corporation to indemnify its current and former directors and officers against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in connection with a legal proceeding. To be indemnified, the person must have acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in, and not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation. With respect to any criminal action or proceeding, the person must not have had reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful.
Our Charter and By-laws provide that, to the fullest extent permitted by the NYBCL, we will indemnify our present and future directors and officers against all expenses actually and reasonably incurred by them as a result of their being threatened with or otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding (other than an action commenced on our own behalf) by virtue of the fact that they are or were one of our officers or directors.
Our by-laws also provide that we may purchase and maintain insurance to indemnify us for any obligation we incur as a result of the indemnification of directors and officers, or to indemnify directors and officers, pursuant to our by-laws and in accordance with the NYBCL.
In addition to the provisions of our Charter and By-laws providing for indemnification of directors and officers, we have entered into an employment agreement with Jeffrey Cosman, our Chief Executive Officer, which provides for us to indemnify Mr. Cosman against all expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him as a result of his being threatened with or otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding by virtue of the fact that he is or was one of our officers.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to officers, directors or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

From March 23, 2016 through April 8, 2016, the Board issued an aggregate of 25,000 shares of restricted Common Stock to the Company's placement agent and/or its designees, pursuant to subscriptions under a private placement offering during such period.

The securities issued pursuant to the above offerings were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), but qualified for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D. The securities were exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act because the issuance of such securities by the Company did not involve a "public offering," as defined in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the transaction, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of securities offered. The Company did not undertake an offering in which it sold a high number of securities to a high number of investors. In addition, these shareholders had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act since they agreed to, and received, share certificates bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act. This restriction ensures that these securities would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a "public offering." Based on an analysis of the above factors, the Company has met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:
(i)
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii)
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) any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii)
Include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3)
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.
(4)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant 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 registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant 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 registrant 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 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
(B) The issuer is subject to Rule 430C (ss. 230. 430C of this chapter): Each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(ss. 230. 424(b) of this chapter) 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 (ss. 230. 430A of this chapter), 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 of 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.
