BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY

 

Segmentz Inc. (“Segmentz” or the “Company”) provides premium transportation and logistics services to over 1,000 active customers, specializing in time definite delivery in support of specific supply chain requirements. Services include expedited transportation, deferred airfreight transportation, local cartage, aircraft charters, dedicated delivery, consolidation, warehouse management and fulfillment. The Company offers a 24 hour, seven day a week call center allowing the customer immediate communication and status of time sensitive shipments in transit. The Company also provides the customer remote order entry capability, shipment tracking, proof of delivery reconciliation, billing status and performance reports via a custom designed web site. The Company is dedicated to providing services that are customized to meet its client’s individual needs and flexible enough to cope with an ever-changing business environment.

 

The Company is positioned in the industry to market its services to both commercial shippers and third party logistics companies such as; warehouse management, transportation management, air/ocean freight forwarders, integrated air carriers, passenger and cargo airlines. The Company offers a high level of service with emphasis on time critical premium transportation services. The Company locates facilities in close proximity to airports to maintain strict service schedules. The majority of shipments handled in the Company’s network are delivered overnight. Segmentz objective is to build a company that supports “segments” of customer’s supply chain initiatives. The Company sustains a competitive advantage by providing flexible, customized, end-to-end solutions, which utilize experienced personnel and technology to exceed the customer’s expectations.

 

The Segmentz acquisition strategy focuses on integrating logistics businesses that will enhance service offerings within our current market areas as well as extend our network to targeted locations in the Midwestern and Southeastern United States. The Company selects acquisition targets based upon their ability to demonstrate: (1) consistent profitability; (2) history of service level delivery and brand identity; (3) regional or service niche and position that is accretive to our current footprint and overlaps or enhances our current service offerings; and (4) creates maximum capacity and equipment utilization to stabilize a platform that will support continued enterprise revenue growth that drives profitability.

 

Segmentz intends to create additional stockholder value by: (1) improving productivity by adopting enhanced technologies and business processes; (2) improving transportation margins by leveraging our growing purchasing power and (3) enhancing the opportunity for organic growth by cross-selling and offering expanded services to new and existing customers.

 

Through December 2004, Segmentz has completed the acquisition of five strategically located logistics and transportation providers. The acquisition companies are as follow: Bullet Freight Systems (“Bullet”) on October 1, 2003, Dasher Express, Inc. (“Dasher”) on December 31, 2003, certain assets of Frontline Freight (“Frontline”) on January 8, 2004, Express-1, Inc. on September 1, 2004 and certain assets of Temple Trucking Inc. on October 1, 2004. The Company has developed and implemented a comprehensive process, which has allowed rapid integration of these companies into the network. The Company’s focus has been to solidify and expand the time definite network of facilities in the Midwestern and Southeastern United States.

 

The next phase of the Company’s acquisition strategy is to further enhance expedited delivery services, expand logistics services offerings and increase market share. In 2005, the Company plans to continue acquisition activity. The Company has researched and identified a number of companies that

 

1


Table of Contents

may be suitable candidates. Although there is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete any acquisitions, the Company is currently in preliminary discussions with a select number of them.

 

There are a variety of risks associated with the Company’s ability to achieve strategic objectives, including the ability to acquire and profitably manage additional businesses, current reliance on key customers, the risks inherent in expanding, and the intense competition in the industry for customers and for the acquisition of additional businesses.

 

RISK FACTORS

 

Special Note About Forward Looking Statements

 

We make statements in this prospectus and in the documents we incorporate by reference that are considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. Sometimes these statements contain words such as may, believe, expect, continue, intend, or other similar words. These statements are not guarantees of our future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause our actual performance or achievements to be materially different from those we project. The following factors, among others, could cause materially different results from those anticipated or projected:

 

    heightened competition;

 

    problems integrating acquired companies;

 

    failure to identify, acquire or profitably manage additional businesses;

 

    failure to obtain new customers or retain existing customers;

 

    inability to carry out marketing and sales plans;

 

    inability to obtain capital for future growth;

 

    loss of key executives; and

 

    general economic and business conditions.

 

We do not have a policy of updating or revising forward-looking statements and thus it should not be assumed that silence by us over time means that actual events are bearing out as estimated in such forward looking statements.

 

Losses from Operations; No Assurances of Profitability

 

We had net income from operations of $203,163 for the year ended December 31, 2003, $374,115 for the year ended December 31, 2002, and a net a loss from operations of $1,087,165 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. There can be no assurance that we will not incur additional losses in the future. Our operating expenses have increased as our business has grown and can be expected to increase significantly as a result of our expansion efforts. There can be no assurance that we will be able to generate sufficient revenue to meet its operating expenditures or to operate profitably.

Table of Contents

Economic Risks; Risks Associated with the Business of Transportation Logistics Management

 

Our business is dependent upon a number of factors, over which we have little or no control, which may have a material adverse effect on our business. These factors include excess capacity in the trucking industry, significant increases or rapid fluctuations in fuel prices, interest rates, fuel taxes, government regulations, governmental and law enforcement anti-terrorism actions, tolls, license and registration fees, insurance premiums and labor costs. It is difficult at times to attract and retain qualified drivers and owner-operators. Operations also are affected by recessionary economic cycles and downturns in our customers’ business cycles, particularly in market segments and industries (such as retail and paper products) in which we have a significant concentration of customers. Seasonal factors could also adversely affect us. Our customers tend to reduce shipments after the winter holiday season and operating expenses tend to be higher in the winter months primarily due to increased operating costs in colder weather and higher fuel consumption as a result of increased idle time. Regional or nationwide fuel shortages could also have adverse effects.

 

Dependence on Equipment Provided by Third Parties; Reliance on Independent Contractors

 

The trucking industry is dependent upon transportation equipment such as chassis, containers and rail, truck and ocean services provided by independent third parties. Periods of equipment shortages have occurred historically in the transportation industry, particularly in a strong economy. If we cannot secure sufficient transportation equipment or transportation services from these third parties to meet the customers’ needs, the business, results of operations and financial position could be materially adversely affected and customers could seek to have their transportation and logistics needs met by other third parties on a temporary or permanent basis. The reliance on agents and independent contractors could reduce operating control and the strength of relationships with customers, and we may have trouble attracting and retaining agents and independent contractors.

 

New Trends and Technology; Consolidation Among Customers

 

If, for any reason, our business of providing warehousing and logistic services ceases to be a preferred method of outsourcing these functions, or if new technological methods become available and widely utilized, our business could be adversely affected. Moreover, increasing consolidation among customers and the resulting ability of such customers to utilize their size to negotiate lower outsourcing costs has, and may continue in the future to have, a depressing effect on the pricing of third-party logistic services.

 

Interruption of Business due to Increased security Measures in Response to Terrorism

 

The continued threat of terrorism within the United States and the ongoing military action and heightened security measures in response to such threat has and may cause significant disruption to commerce. Our business depends on the free flow of products and services through these channels of commerce. Recently, in response to terrorists’ activities and threats aimed at the United States, transportation and other services have been slowed or stopped altogether. Further delays or stoppages in transportation or other services could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Furthermore, we may experience an increase in operating costs, such as costs for transportation, insurance and security as a result of the activities and potential activities. We may also face interruption of services due to increased security measures in response to terrorism. The U.S. economy in general is being adversely affected by the terrorist activities and potential activities. Any economic downturn could adversely impact our results of operations, impair our ability to raise capital or

 

3


Table of Contents

otherwise adversely affect our ability to grow our business. It is impossible to predict how this may affect our business or the economy in the U.S. and in the world, generally. In the event of further threats or acts of terrorism, our business and operations may be severely and adversely effected or destroyed.

 

Competition

 

The transportation services industry is heavily fragmented and intensely competitive and includes numerous regional, inter-regional and national competitors, none of which dominates the market.

 

Regulation

 

Our operations are subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations. Although compliance with these laws and regulations has not had a material effect on our operations or financial condition, there is no assurance that additions or changes to current laws or regulations will not have a material effect on us, our profitability and our financial condition.

 

Substantial Alteration of our Current Business and Revenue Model

 

Our present business and revenue model represents the current view of the optimal business and revenue structure which is to derive revenues and achieve profitability in the shortest period of time. There can be no assurance that current models will not be altered significantly or replaced with an alternative model that is driven by motivations other than near-term revenues and/or profitability (for example, building market share before our competitors). Any such alteration or replacement of the business and revenue model may ultimately result in the deferring of certain revenues in favor of potentially establishing larger market share. We cannot assure that any adjustment or change in the business and revenue model will prove to be successful.

 

Inability to Manage Growth and Internal Expansion

 

We have not yet undergone the significant managerial and internal expansion that we expect will occur, and our inability to manage growth could hurt our results of operations. Expansion of our operations will be required to address anticipated growth of our customer base and market opportunities. Expansion will place a significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources. Currently, we have a limited number of employees. We will need to improve existing procedures and controls as well as implement new transaction processing, operational and financial systems, procedures and controls to expand, train and manage our employee base. Our failure to manage growth effectively could have a damaging effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

Dependence on Key Management; Loss of Key Management could have a Material Adverse Affect on Operations

 

We believe that the attraction and retention of qualified personnel is critical to success. If we lose key personnel or we are unable to recruit qualified personnel, the ability to manage the day-to-day aspects of the business will be weakened. Our operations and prospects depend in large part on the performance of the senior management team. The loss of the services of one or more members of the senior management team could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operation. Because the senior management team has unique experience with us and within the transportation industry, it would be difficult to replace them without adversely affecting our business operations. In addition to their unique experience, the management team has fostered key relationships

 

4


Table of Contents

with our suppliers. These relationships are especially important to a non-asset based company such as Segmentz and the loss of these relationships could have a material adverse effect on our profitability.

 

Our business is dependent on the services of our Chairman and CEO, Allan Marshall. Loss of Mr. Marshall’s services could have material adverse effect on operations. We have secured “Key-man” life insurance on Mr. Marshall on behalf of the Company and its shareholders in an amount of three million dollars.

 

Need for Substantial Additional Financing

 

There is no guarantee that we will be able to obtain financing required to continue to expand our business or that our present funding sources will continue to extend terms under which we can operate efficiently. If we are unable to secure financing under favorable terms, we may be materially adversely affected.

 

Our continued viability depends on our ability to raise capital. Changes in economic, regulatory or competitive conditions may lead to cost increases. Management may also determine that it is in our best interest to expand more rapidly than currently intended, to expand marketing activities, to develop new or enhance existing services or products, to respond to competitive pressures or to acquire complementary services, businesses or technologies. In any such case or other change of circumstance, additional financing will be necessary. If any additional financing is required, there can be no assurances that we will be able to obtain such additional financing on terms acceptable to us and at times required by us, if at all. In such event, we may be required to materially alter our business plan or curtail all or a part of our expansion plans.

 

Volatility of the Market Price of our Stock

 

The market price of our common stock may be volatile, which could cause the value of your investment to decline. Any of the following factors could affect the market price of our common stock:

 

    changes in earnings estimates and outlook by financial analysts;

 

    our failure to meet financial analysts’ and investors’ performance expectations;

 

    changes in market valuations of other transportation and logistics companies; and

 

    general market and economic conditions.

 

In addition, many of the risks described elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” section could materially and adversely affect the stock price. The stock markets have experienced price and volume volatility that have affected many companies’ stock prices. Stock prices for many companies have experienced wide fluctuations that have often been unrelated to the operating performance of those companies. These types of fluctuations may affect the market price of our common stock.

 

Applicability of Low Priced Stock Risk Disclosure Requirements

 

Our common stock may be considered a low priced security under rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). Under these rules, broker-dealers participating in transactions in low priced securities must first deliver a risk disclosure document which describes that risks associated with such stock, the broker-dealer’s duties, the customer’s rights and remedies, and certain market and other information, and make a suitability determination approving the customer for low priced stock transactions based on customer’s financial situation, investment experience and

Table of Contents

objectives. Broker-dealers must also disclose these restrictions in writing and provide monthly account statements to the customer, and obtain specific written consent of the customer. With these restrictions, the likely effect of designation as a low price stock, would be to decrease the willingness of broker-dealers to make a market for the stock, to decrease the liquidity of the stock and to increase the transaction costs of sales and purchase of such stocks compared to other securities.

 

Dilution; Resales Under this Prospectus may Significantly Increase the Number of Shares in the Public Market Resulting in Market Pressure that May Cause the Price for Our Shares to Drop or Remain at Low Levels

 

Prior to this offering, approximately 1,050,000 shares of our common stock were freely tradeable in the public market. The addition to the public market of the 19,090,233 shares covered by this prospectus, in addition to the 8,430,212 shares covered by this prospectus that will become free-trading upon exercise of common stock purchase warrants, could cause the market price of our shares to fall or remain at lower levels. The sale, or availability for sale, of a substantial number of shares of common stock in the public market subsequent to the offering under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”) or this prospectus or otherwise, could have a major negative effect on the market price of our common stock. It could also limit our ability to raise additional capital from the sale of our equity securities or debt financing.

 

SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS

 

The following table sets forth the name of each selling security holder, the number or shares of common stock beneficially owned by each selling security holder as of the date of this prospectus, giving effect to the exercise of the selling security holders’ options, if any, into shares of common stock, and the number of shares being offered by each selling security holder. The shares of common stock being offered are being registered to permit public sales and the selling security holders may offer all or part of the shares for resale from time to time. All expenses of the registration of the common stock on behalf of the selling security holder are being borne by the Company. We will receive none of the proceeds of this offering. We will receive proceeds in the amount of the exercise price in the event the selling security holders exercise their common stock purchase warrants.

 

The following table is derived from our books and records, as well as from those of our transfer agent. No selling security holder is affiliated with us except Allan J. Marshall, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and Dennis McCaffrey, our Chief Operating Officer. All shares listed for resale reflect currently outstanding shares of our common stock, unless otherwise stated.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We will not receive any proceeds on the sales of the shares we are registering on behalf of our Selling Shareholders. We will receive proceeds in the amount of the exercise price in the event the Selling Shareholders exercise their common stock purchase warrants. In the event that we receive proceeds consequential to the exercise of warrants we intend to use such proceeds to acquire additional companies, make capital investments to enhance our technology and support expanding operational requirements, and for general working capital purposes.

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

The shares covered by this prospectus may be distributed from time to time by the selling security holders in one or more transactions that may take place on the American Stock Exchange. These include ordinary broker’s transactions, privately-negotiated transactions or through sales to one or more broker-dealers for resale of these shares as principals, at market prices existing at the time of sale, at prices related to existing market prices, through Rule 144 transactions or at negotiated prices. Usual and customary or specifically negotiated brokerage fees or commissions may be paid by the selling security holders in connection with sales of securities.

 

The selling security holders may sell the securities in one or more of the following methods, which may include crosses or block transactions:

 

    through floor specialist on the American Stock Exchange, in transactions which may include special offerings, exchange distributions and/or secondary distributions, pursuant to and in accordance with the rules of such exchanges, including sales to underwriters who acquire the shares for their own account and resell them in one or more transactions or through brokers, acting as principal or agent;

 

    in transactions other than on such exchanges or in the over-the-counter market, or a combination of such transactions, including sales through brokers, acting as principal or agent, sales in privately negotiated transactions, or dispositions for value by any selling security holder to its partners or members, subject to rules relating to sales by affiliates;

    through the writing of options on our shares, whether or not such options are listed on an exchange, or other transactions requiring delivery of our shares, or the delivery of our shares to close out a short position.

 

Any such transactions may be effected at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices or at fixed prices. In making sales, brokers or dealers used by the selling security holders may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. The selling security holders and others through whom such securities are sold may be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act for the securities offered, and any profits realized or commission received may be considered underwriting compensation.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

 

Our authorized capital stock consists of 40,000,000 shares of common stock, $.001 par value per share and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $1.00 par value per share. As of January 3, 2004 there were 26,727,034 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, which are held of record by approximately 600 holders. As of the date of this prospectus, all shares of preferred stock have been either redeemed by the Company or converted into common stock.

 

Common Stock

 

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a shareholder vote. Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Therefore, holders of a majority of the shares of common stock voting for the election of directors can elect all of the directors. Holders of common stock are entitled to share in all dividends that the board of directors, in its discretion, declares from legally available funds. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, each outstanding share entitles its holder to participate in all assets that remain after payment of liabilities and after providing for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock.

 

Holders of our common stock have no conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no redemption provisions for the common stock. The rights of the holders of common stock are subject to any rights that may be fixed for holders of preferred stock, when and if any preferred stock is authorized and issued. All outstanding shares of common stock and the shares underlying all option and warrants will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable upon our issuance of these shares.

All Series A-1 preferred stock has been converted into common stock.

 

Series B-1 Preferred Stock. All Series B-1 preferred stock was retired on December 17, 2003.

 

Series C Preferred Stock. The series C preferred stock (i) accrues dividends at a rate of 10% of the stated value ($100 per share) per year, (ii) has no voting rights, (iii) is not convertible, and (iv) is redeemable by the Company for $60,000 on the 6 month anniversary of the date of issuance. If the Company does not redeem the shares of series C preferred stock on the 6 month anniversary, we are required to issue to the holders of the series C preferred stock 5 shares of common stock for every 1 share of series C preferred stock held on each of the 7, 8, and 9 month anniversaries (or 3,000 shares of common stock per month in the aggregate). If we do not redeem the series C preferred stock on the 9 month anniversary, the series C preferred stock is automatically converted into debt, payable upon demand, accruing interest at a rate of 12% per year. All series C preferred Stock has been redeemed.

 

We may issue additional series of preferred stock from time to time, with such designations, preferences, conversion rights, cumulative, relative, participating, optional or other rights, including

INDEMNIFICATION

 

The Delaware General Business Law (the “Corporation Act”) permits the indemnification of directors, employees, officers and agents of Delaware corporations. The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate”) and Bylaws provide that the Company shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the Corporation Act.

 

The provisions of the Corporation Act that authorize indemnification do not eliminate the duty of care of a director, and in appropriate circumstances equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available under Delaware law. In addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for (a) violations of criminal laws, unless the director had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, (b) deriving an improper personal benefit from a transaction, (c) voting for or assenting to an unlawful distribution and (d) willful misconduct or conscious disregard for the best interests of the Company in a proceeding by or in the right of a shareholder. The statute does not affect a director’s responsibilities under any other law, such as the federal securities laws.

 

The effect of the foregoing is to require the Company to indemnify the officers and directors of the Company for any claim arising against such persons in their official capacities if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed 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.
