Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Resource Group US Holdings LLC. (the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in members’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has yet to achieve profitable operations, has negative cash flows from operating activities, and is dependent upon future issuances of equity or other financings to fund ongoing operations all of which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, 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.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Critical Audit Matters

 

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company recognizes revenue upon transfer of control of promised services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services.

 

Determining when a performance obligation has been satisfied involves significant judgment, due to the company’s practice of invoicing current year revenues after year end, which has the potential to create cut-off issues with billed and unbilled revenue.

 

To evaluate the appropriateness and accuracy of the assessment by management, we evaluated management’s assessment in relationship to proper cut-off of revenue recognition.

Resource Group US Holdings LLC and Subsidiaries
Notes to Financial Statements

 

For the Years Ended December 31, 2024 and 2023

 

1. Description of Business

 

Resource Group US Holdings LLC (the “Company”) is a limited liability company formed in Florida. The Company holds a 100% ownership interest in Resource Group US LLC (“Resource”), Zimmer Equipment Inc. (“ZEI”) and ETS Realty 1, LLC (“ETS”).

 

The Company is a next-generation, full-service organic recycling and compost technology company specializing in transforming targeted organic green waste materials into engineered, environmentally friendly soil and mulch products. In addition, the Company offers year-round collection and disposal services through high-capacity grapple trucks, open-top walking floor trailers, and variable-sized containers serving green waste generators, landscaping companies, golf courses, communities, and municipalities. The Company works to streamline operations by internalizing transportation services, reducing over-the-road mileage, lowering disposal costs, and maximizing efficiency. 

 

The Company is governed by an operating agreement (“Operating Agreement”) and shall continue in existence until it is dissolved in accordance with the provisions of such agreement. The Company primarily operates in the state of Florida.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company has incurred net losses since inception and has a net equity deficiency, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has historically funded its operations through various debt financing. The above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of presentation and principals of consolidation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Resource, ZEI and ETS.

 

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements — New accounting pronouncements implemented by the Company are discussed below or in the related notes, where appropriate.

 

Accounting estimates — The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue recognition – The Company determines, at contract inception, whether it will transfer control of a promised good or service over time or at a point in time, regardless of the length of contract or other factors. The recognition of revenue aligns with the timing of when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five steps in accordance with its revenue policy: 

 

  (1) Identify the contract with a customer

 

  (2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract

 

  (3) Determine the transaction price

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

 

  (4) Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract

 

  (5) Recognize revenue as performance obligations are satisfied

 

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of materials (compost, soil and mulch) as well as the collection and disposal services of waste, which at times, is produced into saleable materials.

 

The sale of materials is recognized at the point in time when control of the product transfers to the customer, which typically occurs upon delivery or customer pickup at the Company’s facility. Revenue from the sale of materials amounted to $2,458,449 and $1,946,016 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Revenue from collection and disposal services is recognized over time as the service is rendered, which is typically within the same day. In connection with these contracts, the Company at times receives non-cash consideration as partial consideration for services provided. The Company retains any materials which can be cleansed and sold. Revenue from collection and disposal services amounted to $15,696,495 and $14,472,016 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

Cash and cash equivalents — The Company considers cash and cash equivalents to include all short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less upon acquisition.

 

Accounts receivable and allowance for credit losses – Accounts receivable are receivables generated from sales to customers. Amounts included in accounts receivable are deemed to be collectible within the Company’s operating cycle. The Company recognizes accounts receivable at invoiced amounts. 

 

The Company adopted ASC 326, Current Expected Credit Losses, on January 1, 2023, which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses using a current expected credit loss model. The allowance for credit losses on expected future uncollectible accounts receivable is estimated considering forecasts of future economic conditions in addition to information about past events and current conditions.

 

The allowance for credit losses reflects the Company’s best estimate of expected losses inherent in the accounts receivable balances. Management provides an allowance for credit losses based on the Company’s historical losses, specific customer circumstances, and general economic conditions. Periodically, management reviews accounts receivable and adjusts the allowance based on current circumstances and charges off uncollectible receivables when all attempts to collect have been exhausted and the prospects for recovery are remote. Recoveries are recognized when they are received. Actual collection losses may differ from the Company’s estimates and could be material to its consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s allowance for credit losses amounted to $117,137 and $105,537, respectively.

 

Inventory – Inventory consists of dirt, sand, mulch and compost. The Company’s inventory is valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value, and consists of all finished goods. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023 there was inventory of $738,297 and $282,509, respectively.

 

Property, plant and equipment — Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated lives of each asset. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense when incurred.

For the Years Ended December 31, 2024 and 2023

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

 

Intangible assets – Intangible assets consist of $100,000 of a non-compete agreement that are being amortized over 3 years. Amortization expense for the years ending December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $20,778 and $40,277, respectively. The accumulated amortization as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $86,111 and $58,333, respectively. Remaining amortization expense is $13,889 which is to be amortized during the year ending December 31, 2025.

 

Income taxes — The Company is a limited liability company, treated as a partnership under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and for Florida purposes. As a result, all profits and losses are reflected in the respective members’ tax return. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any provision for federal and state income taxes.

 

The Company evaluates uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return for recognition in its consolidated financial statements. The Company was not required to recognize any amounts from uncertain tax positions for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. The Company's conclusions regarding uncertain tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon ongoing analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof, as well as other factors. Generally, federal, state and local authorities may examine the Company's tax returns for three years from the date of filing.

  

Business Combinations — The Company accounts for business acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805 “Business Combinations”, which requires recognition and measurement of all identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their fair value as of the date control is obtained. The Company determines the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon its best estimates of the acquisition-date fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Subsequent adjustments to fair value of any contingent consideration are recorded to the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Costs that the Company incurs to complete the business combination are charged to general and administrative expenses as they are incurred.

 

For acquisitions of assets that do not constitute a business, any assets and liabilities acquired are recognized at their cost based upon their relative fair value of all asset and liabilities acquired.

 

Concentrations of credit risk — Financial instruments, that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash with high credit quality institutions. At times, such amounts may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such account and believes that it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on the account.

 

Accounting Standards Recently Adopted - On November 27, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280):

 

Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. Among other new disclosure requirements, ASU 2023-07 requires companies to disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker. ASU 2023-07 is effective for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2024 and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2025. ASU 2023-07 must be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 during the year ended December 31, 2024.

In February 2025, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Membership Interest Purchase Agreement”) with Safe and Green Development Corporation (“SG DevCorp”) and the Company’s members (“Equityholders”) whereas SG DevCorp will acquire 100% of the membership interests of the Company.

 

On June 2, 2025, the Company and SG DevCorp entered into an Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, dated February 25, 2025, (the “Purchase Agreement”). The Amendment alters the consideration to be paid by SG DevCorp to the Equityholders in connection with the purchase of 100% of the membership interests of the Company. Pursuant to the Amendment, the purchase price for the membership interests of the Company was amended to be comprised of (i) $480,000 in principal amount of unsecured 6% promissory notes due on the first anniversary of the closing, (ii) the issuance of shares of the Company’s restricted common stock (the “Closing Shares”) equal to 19.99% of SG DevCorp’s outstanding shares of common stock on the date the Purchase Agreement was executed; and (iii) 1,500,000 shares of a newly designated series of non-voting Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) (which, subject to the approval of SG DevCorp’s stockholders and The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) not objecting to the conversion and SG DevCorp continuing to meet and being eligible to meet the Nasdaq continued listing requirements after conversion), would be convertible into 9,000,000 restricted shares of SG DevCorp’s common stock). The Amendment also provides that, subject to shareholder approval, SG DevCorp will issue an aggregate of 41,182 additional shares of SG DevCorp’s common stock to the Equityholders upon the approval of such issuance by SG DevCorp’s stockholders and provided that the Company continues to meet and is eligible to meet the Nasdaq continued listing requirements.
