PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Narrative Description of the Business

Our History

We were originally incorporated as FSGI Corporation under the laws of the State of Florida in 1997 as a holding company for the purpose of acquiring Financial Standards Group, Inc. (FSG). That year FSGI Corporation acquired FSG, a Florida company organized in October 1989, to assist credit unions in performing financial services. FSG offered financial services to credit unions as a wholly-owned subsidiary until its sale in January 2000.

On December 21, 1998, FSGI Corporation, at the time a publicly traded company trading on the OTCBB as FSGI, acquired all of the outstanding common stock of The Martial Arts Network On-Line, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of The Martial Arts Network, Inc. The Martial Arts Network On-Line, Inc., a company organized under the laws of the State of Florida, was developed in 1996 by its parent company The Martial Arts Network, Inc. as an electronic forum dedicated to promoting education and awareness of martial arts through its web site. Upon issuance of shares, and options to purchase shares of FSGI Corporation's common stock to The Martial Arts Network, Inc., that company became the controlling stockholder of FSGI Corporation.

FSGI then changed its name to TMANglobal.com, Inc. ("TMAN") as the result of a merger between FSGI Corporation and The Martial Arts Network On-Line, Inc. on December 21, 1998.

Franchise Holdings was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 2, 2003. Franchise Holdings International, Inc. completed a merger with TMAN Global.com Inc. on April 30, 2003. This merger was in the nature of a change in domicile of the Florida corporation to the State of Nevada, as well as the acquisition of a new business. Since the inception of our current business operations, we have been in the business of acquiring franchise, license and distribution rights in new and emerging growth companies.

On December 16, 2014, Franchise Holdings International, Inc. (FNHI) entered into a three party Definitive Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) to acquire all issued and outstanding shares of TruXmart Ltd. (The Company” or TruXmart”), an Ontario (Canada) corporation located at 1895 Clements Road, Suite 155, Pickering, Ontario CANADA L1W 3R8, for 37,700,000 shares of FNHI (the “FNHI Shares”), representing 92.9925914% of the outstanding shares of FNHI (the “Share Exchange”), calculated post-issuance. The Agreement was with Steven Rossi (“Rossi”), the sole shareholder of TruXmart and with TruXmart. Prior to the Share Exchange, Rossi held all outstanding shares of TruXmart, consisting of 4,791 Class A common shares and TruXmart owned 2,300,000 common shares of FNHI, representing an 80.961285% ownership stake in FNHI. Pursuant to the Share Exchange, Rossi acquired from TruXmart, its 2,300,000 FNHI common shares and an additional 37,700,000 shares of FNHI from FNHI, in exchange for all 4,791 outstanding common shares of TruXmart. As a result of this Agreement, FNHI is filing this Form 8-K. Once the transaction is closed, TruXmart will become the wholly-owned subsidiary of FNHI, with FNHI holding all 4,791 outstanding shares of TruXmart common stock. As a result of this acquisition, FNHI has adopted the fiscal year end of TruXmart, which is December 31. The first consolidated post-acquisition report will be the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

Operations

General

TruXmart was founded in 2011 to take advantage of the limited innovation provided by existing tonneau cover manufacturers. Tonneau covers have remained much the same in price and design since 2005 with one main company controlling a majority of the tonneau cover market. This dynamic market segment is in need of a new innovative manufacturer of high quality, functional, and aggressively priced tonneau covers. TruXmart has developed multiple products for all of the most prominent pick up trucks available in North America. Details of each product can be found at www.truxmartcovers.com. TruXmart sells its products through wholesalers in Canada and the U.S. and through third-party online retailers.

At the present time, we have no plans to raise any additional funds within the next twelve months. Any working capital will be expected to be generated from internal operations. However, we reserve the right to examine possible additional sources of funds, including, but not limited to, equity or debt offerings, borrowings, or joint ventures. Limited market surveys have never been conducted to determine demand for our now former products and services. Therefore, there can be no assurance that any of its objectives will be achieved.

Nature of Products and Services

In 2013 sales of new pick up trucks were over 1,800,000 in the U.S. and over 350,000 in Canada. Throughout their useful lives, it is estimated over 75% will use some aftermarket bed cover. The tonneau cover segment of the automotive aftermarket generated revenues of $255 million in 2005. It is estimated the tonneau cover segment to be closer to $500 million in 2014.

Background

For many years, consumers have had very limited options available to them from tonneau cover manufacturers. The leading manufacturers in the North American market have had very few new model developments. The tonneau cover market can be divided into four main styles of covers:

1. Soft Folding & Roll-up covers (Vinyl covers)

2. Hard Folding & Standing Covers (Aluminum and FRP)

3. Solid one piece caps and lids (Plastic & Fiberglass)

4. Retractable Covers (Plastic & Aluminum)

We believe the consumer favors models that are the least cumbersome, most functional, and lowest initial cost. Solid one piece covers and retractable covers are the least desirable because of their limited functionality and overall cost. Therefore, the most popular covers in today’s market are soft and hard folding/rolling tonneau covers.

Market Analysis and Distribution

Our market consists of three major types of customers which include; master warehouse distributor, dealer- wholesaler, and end retail consumer. Master warehouse distributors will stock and distribute product to their customers, which are usually local dealers and wholesalers. Dealers and wholesalers are local stores which sell product to some businesses and retail consumers in their area and online retailers. Dealers will purchase most of their product from their local distributor who will deliver to them regularly. Retail end consumers are simply the end user of your product. TruXmart currently sells its product line through distributors and dealer networks.

TruXmart’s target market includes master warehouse distributors and dealers.

In the Canadian market, TruXmart does the majority of its business with warehouse distributors, and select dealer customers. In the US market, TruXmart’s customer base is mostly dealers and wholesalers. TruXmart’s Canadian operation sells to only select dealers in Ontario as well as the largest warehouse distributor in eastern Canada. Enterprise Robert Thibert in Châteauguay, Quebec Canada has over 600,000 square feet of warehouse space in three provinces in Canada. Robert Thibert is responsible for stocking and selling our product to their customer base in Canada. TruXmart dealer sales in Ontario are to only select dealers who assist with product feedback.

TruXmart is a supplying member of one of the largest aftermarket buying groups in the U.S.. American Aftermarket Group (AAG), owned by Line-X coatings, consists of over 700 car and truck accessory stores. Being a supplying member of AAG gives TruXmart access to most of the large truck accessory dealers, wholesalers, and online stores in the USA. Our products are sold to AAG members by the sales staff at AAG and all customer service and maintenance is done through phone calls, emails, and infrequent visits.

Competition

Companies that compete in this market are THI Group, Tonno Pro and Rugged Liner however not all companies charge competitive prices:

The Extang (THI) Trifecta retails in the USA for $425. The Tonno Pro Tri Fold retails for $269. The Rugged Liner Tri Fold retails for $329. Whereas the TruXmart Tri Fold retails for CAD$259; US$239.

The Extang Solid Fold retails in the USA for $799. The Rugged Liner Hard Fold retails for $689. The TruXmart Forte retails at CAD$699; US$689.

Low profile Roll-Up covers are manufactured by many different companies. The two most popular Roll-Up covers are the Truxedo (THI) Low-ProQT, which retails for $499 and the Tonno Pro Low-Roll which retails for $269. The TruXmart Roll-Up retails for $CAD299; US$269.

THI Group is the holding company for Extang Corporation, TruXedo, Inc., BedRug, Inc, UnderCover Inc., Advantage Truck Accessories Inc, Retrax Inc, and BAK Industries. They account for the majority of the competing brands in North America.

The area of biggest growth in the tonneau cover market is in the area of aggressively priced hard folding tonneau covers. Currently, the market distribution is shared by three primary participants, with LKQ/Keystone considered the market leader.

Sales, Marketing and Distribution Strategy

TruXmart’s sales strategy is constantly changing and dynamic. Sales are made through warehouse distributors, as they typically handle product sales and promotion through their in-house sales department. To fully saturate the market a business must entice the retail consumer to purchase its product by way of a strong internet presence which will consist of YouTube videos and commercials, an interactive website, search engine optimization, social media, etc. The next step is to have strong working relationships and reputations among dealers and wholesalers who purchase TruXmart’s product, either directly or through distributors.

The Company’s current product lines are as follows:

1. TruXmart Tri Fold (introduced in 2011)

The TruXmart Tri Fold is our staple soft folding tonneau cover. The Tri Fold is made with features such as stainless steel hardware, double coated vinyl tarp, and all aluminum and plastic coated front clamps. The Tri Fold is made available to our customer base at an average cost savings of 5% over competing products.

2. TruXmart Smart Fold (introduced in 2012)

The TruXmart Smart Fold is our second product to market and offers our patented rear Smart Latch system. The Smart Fold is the first innovation in the rear latching system offered on soft folding tonneau covers. The Smart Fold cover comes with all of the same features as the Tri Fold but with a new rear latch system that allows the cover to be opened by simply pulling a release cable which is a new innovation in the soft tri fold segment of our market.

The Company introduced three new products at the Specialty Equipment Manufacturers Association (SEMA) show in Las Vegas in November 2014. These products were the following:

3. TruXmart Forte

The TruXmart Forte is the world’s first completely solid folding tonneau cover to be constructed using powder coated galvanized steel. The TruXmart Forte is also the first tonneau cover to come with a removable tool bag that acts as a cargo divider when installed. This tool bag can be removed from the tonneau cover, zippered together, and carried using a shoulder or hand strap.

4. TruXmart Quad-Fold

The TruXmart Quad-Fold will be the first vinyl wrapped tonneau cover to fold in four sections. This cover will also allow its users full bed access by being foldable upwards towards the rear window of the truck. We chose to make the world’s first quad folding cover so this cover is more compact when standing parallel to the back window of a truck, thus eliminating wind resistance and rear window obstruction.

5. TruXmart Roll-Up

The TruXmart Roll-Up cover takes from a long history of roll up covers in our market place. Although roll-up style covers have been in the market since the early 90’s, the TruXmart Roll-Up will offer a sleek, low-profile design, superior side seals, and rear smart latches that will allow its user to open this cover by simply pulling on the rear release loop.

In addition, we are currently re-engineering the TruXmart Smart Fold latch system based on consumer feedback. As a consequence, the next generation Smart Fold covers will be far easier to install and will be available for both domestic and imported light trucks.

Production and Delivery

TruXmart products are manufactured to our specifications and design in China. All of our soft (vinyl) covers are made in a factory in Ningbo, China. All future TruXmart hard products are expected to be manufactured in Jiangsu, China. Our soft cover factory is capable of producing 3,000 pieces per month and our hard cover factory is capable of producing 1,500 pieces per month. Production at both factories can be increased within thirty days to facilitate volumes up to ten times the Chinese contract manufacturers’ current output without any stress on their capacity.

Employees

Currently, we employ 2 full-time and 1 part-time persons. We may hire additional employees in the future to facilitate anticipated growth projections. We reimburse our employee for all necessary and customary business related expenses.

We have no plans or agreements which provide health care, insurance or compensation on the event of termination of employment or change in our control.

Proprietary Information

Patent

As of this date, the Company through Mr. Rossi has obtained one U.S. Patent. In addition, the Company retained patent counsel in October 2014 to file two provisional U.S. patent applications, also in this arena. TruXmart has paid $7,718 since approximately October 26, 2012, toward the costs of obtaining US Patent 8,814,249 - System for securing a truck bed cover, (filed October 26, 2012, granted May 1, 2014). This patent is owned by Steven Rossi, previously the sole stockholder of TruXmart. Under an exclusive license agreement between the Company and Mr. Rossi, dated November 26, 2014, TruXmart has the right to commercialize this patent. Under this agreement, TruXmart is not obligated to pay any royalties to Mr. Rossi. It is, however, obligated to pay any expenses incurred to keep the patent in full force and effect.

Government Regulation

We believe that governmental regulation will not be significant to us now or in the future.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those discussed in this Annual Report. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following.

Limited Operating History; Financial Position Not Robust; Losses/Lack of Profitable Operations to Date

TruXmart has incurred net losses since inception and may continue to incur net losses while it builds its business and as such it may not achieve or maintain profitability. The Company’s limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate its business and prospects, and there is no assurance that the business of the Company will grow or that it will become profitable.

TruXmart has been in existence for approximately three years, which is relatively short compared to our competitors. While the Company has experienced recent substantial growth in our revenues in 2013 over 2012, there is no assurance

that our revenues will continue to experience such a trend line, nor even that our revenues will continue to grow. Because of our limited operating history it is difficult to extrapolate any meaningful projections about the Company’s future. We do not have significant assets with which to press our plans forward.

Our competitors are significantly better funded than we are. This could prove detrimental in that we may not have the funds with which to procure a sufficient supply of product to meet demand at some point. Our competitors could engage in predatory pricing or other tactics in an attempt to eliminate our market share. The Company has incurred net losses since inception, and may continue to incur net losses while it builds its business, and as such it may not achieve or maintain profitability.

Future Growth

The Company’s ability to achieve its expansion objectives and to manage its growth effectively depends upon a variety of factors, including the Company’s ability to internally develop products, to attract and retain skilled employees, to successfully position and market its products, to protect its existing intellectual property, to capitalize on the potential opportunities it is pursuing with third parties, and sufficient funding. To accommodate growth and compete effectively, the Company will need working capital to maintain adequate inventory levels, develop additional procedures and controls and increase, train, motivate and manage its work force. There is no assurance that the Company’s personnel, systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support its potential future operations. There is no assurance that the Company will generate revenues from its prospective sales partners and be able to capitalize on additional third party manufacturers.

Reliance on Third Parties

Suppliers: Currently, the Company relies on two third party manufacturers to produce its products in China. These products are only available from a limited group of manufacturers, because of our product development alliances with these manufacturers. Under this alliance arrangement, each of the Company’s products are designed and engineered in co-operation with one of our two contract manufactures in China and, accordingly, each tonneau (a hard or soft cover for the bed of a pick-up truck designed to increase mileage and to protect items from inclement weather and potential theft) cover product can only be manufactured by the specific manufacturer with which they have been developed. Moreover, the tools, molds, specific grade of materials and assembly techniques are exclusive to the manufacture with which the product was developed. Manufacturing could be switched, but it would take time and there are no guarantees the product would be identical or that the Company would have sufficient inventory in the given product(s).

The Company’s reliance on outside manufacturers generally involves several risks, including: an inability to obtain an adequate supply of required products; the discontinuance of a product by a third-party contract manufacturer; an acquisition of the manufacturer by one of the Company’s competitors; delays or long lead times in receiving products from manufacturers; constraints on the ability of the supplier to operate as efficiently and quickly as required and less control over quality and pricing of components. There is no assurance that the Company’s manufacturers will continue to produce the products it requires in order to conduct business, which in turn would materially adversely affect its ability to generate revenue and profits.

Distribution: The Company relies on third party distribution entities (wholesale and retail) to sell its products. The Company relies on third party wholesalers to distribute its products to retail locations, over which the Company has little to no control in the wholesale or retail pricing and product placement and other marketing issues. Its products could be priced higher to the end user than its competition, which would have a detrimental effect on the Company’s sales. The Company relies on a third party online retailer to sell its products directly to the retail market. The Company has little to no control over pricing and other retail issues such as product placement, which could have a direct effect on the Company’s revenues.

In its desire to maintain a competitive position in the market, we have implemented and enforce a strict “MAP” (Manufacturers Authorized Price). MAP typically refers to the definite retail pricing of each of our products and differs between the Canadian and U.S. markets. Our products’ MAP pricing is set to be competitive in relation to competing products while allowing our distributor, dealer and retailer customer base to generate respectable margins of profit.

Moreover, if our MAP pricing is violated by a product being advertised or sold above or below the then current MAP price, we take necessary steps with our customer(s) to remediate pricing to continue and maintain our competitive position in the marketplace. There are no guarantees that MAP pricing and other various forms of pricing and product control measures can be effectively monitored and enforced, especially as the Company’s market saturation grows.

Risks Associated with Outsourced Production

As outlined above, the Company outsources the manufacture of products to two contract manufacturers in China. In doing so, the Company selects its manufacturers, screened in advance based on their capabilities, supply capacity, reputation and other relevant traits. Nonetheless, the possibility of delivery delays, product defects and other production-side risks stemming from outsourcers cannot be eliminated. In particular, inadequate production capacity among outsourced manufacturers could result in the Company being unable to supply enough product amid periods of high product demand, the opportunity costs of which could be substantial.

Risks Associated with Outsourced Production in China

Changes in Chinese laws and regulations, or their interpretation, or the imposition of confiscatory taxation or restrictions are matters over which the Company has no control. While the current leadership, (and the Chinese government), have been pursuing economic reform policies that encourage private economic activity and greater economic decentralization, there is no assurance, however, that the Chinese government will continue to pursue these policies, or that it will not significantly alter these policies from time to time without notice.

For example, the Chinese government has enacted some laws and regulations dealing with matters such as corporate organization and governance, foreign investment, commerce, taxation and trade. However, their experience in implementing, interpreting and enforcing these laws and regulations is limited and, in turn, our ability to enforce commercial claims or to resolve commercial disputes is unpredictable. If our business ventures with Chinese manufacturers were unsuccessful, or other adverse circumstances arise from these transactions, we face the risk that the parties to these ventures may seek ways to terminate the transactions regardless of any purchasing contracts or agreements we may have entered into. The resolution of these matters may be subject to the exercise of considerable discretion by agencies of the Chinese government, and forces unrelated to the legal merits of a particular matter or dispute may influence their determination.

Any rights we may have to specific performance, or to seek an injunction under Chinese law, in either of these cases, are severely limited, and without a means of recourse by virtue of the Chinese legal system, we may be unable to prevent these situations from occurring. The occurrence of any such events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, in such guises as currency conversion, imports and sources of supply, devaluations of currency or the nationalization or other expropriation of private enterprises.

In that context, we may have to evaluate the feasibility of acquiring alternative or fallback manufacturing capabilities to support the production of our existing and future tonneau cover products. Such development could adversely affect our cost structure inasmuch as we would be required to support sales at an acceptable cost—and might have relatively limited time to so adapt. We have not manufactured these products in the past—and are not expecting to do so in the foreseeable future. That is because developing these technological capabilities and building or purchasing a facility will increase our expenses with no guarantee that we will be able to recover our investment in our manufacturing capabilities.

Cross Border Sales Transactions

Cross border sales transactions carry a risk of changes in import tax and/or duties related to the import and export of our product, which can result in pricing changes, which will affect revenues and earnings. Cross border sales transactions carry other risks including, but not limited to, changing regulations, wait times, customs inspection and lost or damaged product

Additional Financing Requirements

From time to time, in order to expand operations to meet customer demand, the Company will need to incur additional capital expenditures. These capital expenditures are intended to be funded from third party sources, including the incurring of debt and/or the sale of additional equity securities. In addition to requiring additional financing to fund capital expenditures, the Company may require additional financing to fund working capital, research and development, sales and marketing, general and administrative expenditures and operating losses. The incurrence of debt creates additional financial leverage and therefore an increase in the financial risk of the Company’s operations. The sale of additional equity securities will be dilutive to the interests of current equity holders. In addition, there can be no assurance that such additional financing, whether debt or equity, will be available to the Company or that it will be available on acceptable commercial terms. Any inability to secure such additional financing on appropriate terms could have a materially adverse impact on the business, financial condition and operating results of the Company.

Reliance on Key Personnel

The Company’s success also will depend in large part on the continued service of its key operational and management personnel, including executive staff, research and development, engineering, marketing and sales staff Most specifically, this includes its President/CEO Steven Rossi and its Chief Operating Officer Steven Raivio who oversee new product development (in lieu of a research and development department) as well as implementation of new products developed, key customer acquisition and retention, overall management and future growth. The Company faces intense competition for these professionals from its competitors, customers and other companies throughout the industry. Any failure on the Company’s part to hire, train and retain a sufficient number of qualified professionals could impair the business of the Company.

Intellectual Property

The Company’s success depends to a significant degree upon its ability to develop, maintain and protect proprietary products and technologies. The Company has one patent through a licensing agreement with its President and CEO at no cost to the Company. The Company intends to file additional patent applications in the U.S. and Canada as part of its strategy to protect its proprietary products and technologies. However, patents provide only limited protection of the Company’s intellectual property. The assertion of patent protection involves complex legal and factual determinations and is therefore uncertain and potentially expensive. The Company cannot provide assurance that patents will be granted with respect to its pending patent application, that the scope of any patents it might obtain will be sufficiently broad to offer meaningful protection, or that it will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable. In fact, any patents which might issue from the Company’s two pending provisional patent applications with the USPTO could be successfully challenged, invalidated or circumvented. This could result in the Company’s pending patent rights failing to create an effective competitive barrier. Losing a significant patent or failing to get a patent issued from a pending patent application the Company considers significant, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.

Confidentiality Agreements with Employees and Others may not Adequately Prevent Disclosure of Trade Secrets and Other Proprietary Information.

In order to protect our proprietary technology and processes, we also rely in part on confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants, outsource manufacturers and other advisors. These agreements may not effectively prevent disclosure of confidential information and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of unauthorized disclosure of confidential information. In addition, others may independently discover trade secrets and proprietary information. Costly and time-consuming litigation could be necessary to enforce and determine the scope of our proprietary rights, and failure to obtain or maintain trade secret protection could adversely affect our competitive business position.

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company is subject to foreign exchange risk as it has two manufacturing facilities in China, markets extensively in both Canadian and U.S. markets, most of the Company’s employees reside in Canada and, to date, the Company has raised funds in Canadian Dollars. Meanwhile, the Company reports results of operations in U.S. Dollars (USD or US$). Since our Canadian customers pay in Canadian Dollar, the Company is subject to gains and losses due to fluctuations in the USD relative to the Canadian Dollar. While having our products manufactured in China, our manufacturers are paid in USD to better avoid the relatively greater fluctuation of the Chinese Yuan (RMB). Any large fluctuations in the exchange between the RMB and USD may cause product costs to increase, therefore affecting revenues and profits, potentially adversely.

Business Combinations

The Company may, in the future, pursue acquisitions of other complementary businesses and technology licensing arrangements. For example, we intend to seek out a joint venture with one or both of our Chinese manufacturers. In addition, we have been approached by competitors to license one or more of our tonneau cover products. The Company may also pursue strategic alliances and joint ventures that leverage its core products and industry experience to expand its product offerings and geographic presence. The Company has limited experience with respect to acquiring other companies and limited experience with respect to forming collaborations, strategic alliances and joint ventures.

If the Company were to make any acquisitions, it may not be able to integrate these acquisitions successfully into its existing business and could assume unknown or contingent liabilities. Any future acquisitions the Company makes , could also result in large and immediate write-offs or the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities, any of which could harm the Company’s operating results. Integrating an acquired company also may require management resources that otherwise would be available for ongoing development of the Company’s existing business.

Competition and Market Share

We participate in the automotive aftermarket equipment industry which is highly competitive for a relatively limited customer base. New pickup truck sales (our principal market) are estimated to be 2,270,000 units for the year 2014, based on sales through November 30, 2014, (source: Wall Street Journal online) which should translate (using an approximate 75% of new truck sales) into approximately 1,700,000 new tonneau covers during the year. (source: Frost & Sullivan) With 3,457 of our tonneau covers sold during the same period, we believe the Company represents 2-tenths of one percent of this market. We consider 5-tenths of one percent of the market to be a break-even market share for us but there is no assurance that we will reach this market share objective.

In addition, some of our competitors sell their products at prices lower than ours and we compete primarily on the basis of product quality, features, value, service, and customer relationships. Our competitive success also depends on our ability to maintain a strong brand and the belief that customers will need our products and services to meet their growth requirements. The competition that we face in our market — which varies depending on the particular business segment, product lines and customers — may prevent us from achieving sales, product pricing and income goals, which could affect our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, our current competitors are significantly better funded and have a longer operating history than us and, for example, we currently do not have sufficient funding to allow for separately marketing the TruXmart “brand.”

Product Liability Insurance

The existence of any defects, errors or failures in our products or the misuse of our products could also lead to product liability claims or lawsuits against us. We plan to acquire product liability insurance in both the U.S. and Canada over the next 3 to 6 months to cover such claims. Assuming that we will be able to acquire such coverage at reasonable cost, we have no assurance this insurance will be adequate to protect us from all material judgments and expenses related to potential future claims or that these levels of insurance will be available at economical prices, if at all. To that extent, product liability insurance is conditional and up for further investigation. A successful product liability claim could result in substantial cost to us. Even if we are fully insured as it relates to a claim, a claim could nevertheless diminish our brand and divert management's attention and resources, which could have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. (See also the “Product Quality” discussion below and the associated recall insurance.)

Product Quality

Although the Company makes an effort to ensure the quality of our light truck tonneau cover products, they could from time to time contain defects, anomalies or malfunctions that are undetectable at the time of shipment. These defects, anomalies or malfunctions could be discovered after the Company’s products are shipped to customers, resulting in the return or exchange of the Company’s products, claims for compensatory damages or discontinuation of the use of the Company's products, which could negatively impact the profits and operating results of the Company. The Company does not presently have product recall, (or similar function), insurance, namely, (in contrast to product liability), insurance that protects a company against broad-scale product manufacturing defects, engineering defects and the costs related to a broad product recall such as shipping, replacement or repairs. Even if in place, there is no guarantee that the full costs of any reimbursements or claims, law suits or litigation would be covered by such insurance. (See also the “Product Liability Insurance” discussion above.)

Patent Enforcement & Infringement

The automotive aftermarket has been characterized by significant litigation and other proceedings regarding patents, patent applications and other intellectual property rights. The situations in which we may become parties to such litigation or proceedings may include:

1. litigation or other proceedings we may initiate against third parties to enforce our patent rights or other intellectual property rights;

2. litigation or other proceedings we or our licensee(s) may initiate against third parties seeking to invalidate the patents held by such third parties or to obtain a judgment that our products do not infringe such third parties’ patents; and

3. litigation or other proceedings, third parties may initiate against us to seek to invalidate our patents.

If third parties initiate litigation claiming that our products infringe their patent or other intellectual property rights, we will need to defend against such proceedings.

The costs of resolving any patent litigation or other intellectual property proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. Many of our potential competitors will be able to sustain the cost of such litigation and proceedings more effectively than we can because of their substantially greater resources. In some instances competitors may proceed with litigation or other proceedings pertaining to infringement of their intellectual property as a means to hinder or devaluate the target defendant company, with no intention of the matter being resolved in their favor. Uncertainties resulting from the initiation and continuation of patent litigation or other intellectual property proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our ability to compete in the marketplace. Patent litigation and other intellectual property proceedings may also consume significant management time and costs. Substantial additional costs may be evident in the event that litigation or other proceedings were initiated against the Company because TruXmart would have to seek legal defense or counsel in the province (Canada) or state (U.S.) where the litigation or legal proceedings were filed.

Global Economic Conditions May Adversely Affect Our Industry, Business and Results of Operations

Our overall performance depends, in part, on worldwide economic conditions which historically is cyclical in character. The U.S. has largely worked its way out of an economic recession while other key international economies continue to be impacted by a recession, characterized by falling demand for a variety of goods and services, restricted credit, going concern threats to financial institutions, major multinational companies and medium and small businesses, poor liquidity, declining asset values, reduced corporate profitability, extreme volatility in credit, equity and foreign exchange markets and bankruptcies. By way of example, the automotive aftermarket, specifically fuel saving add-ons such as light-truck tonneau covers, is typically not as affected by economic slow-down or recession as other industries or market segments. Currently, these conditions, (since the Company’s sales are exclusively made in North America while production occurs in China), can be expected to change. In markets where our sales occur and go into recession, these conditions affect the rate of spending and could adversely affect our customers’ ability or willingness to purchase our products, and delay prospective customers’ purchasing decisions, all of which could adversely affect our operating results. In addition, in a weakened economy, companies that have competing products may reduce prices which could also reduce our average selling prices and harm our operating results.

The Company faces Intense Competition from New Products

The Company’s tonneau cover products face intense competition from its competitors. This competition may increase as new products enter the market, especially those made overseas and marketed and sold directly into the North American market by overseas manufactures. In such an event, the competitors’ products may be of similar or better quality compared to the Company’s products. Alternatively, in the case of generic competition, they may be of equal or better quality and are sold at substantially lower prices than the Company’s products. At times, competitors may also release a generic or re-branded version of a current and successful product at a substantially reduced price in efforts to increase revenues or market share. As a result, if the Company fails to maintain its competitive position, this could have a material adverse effect on its business, cash flow, results of operations, financial position and prospects.

Risks Related to Our Capital Stock

The public market for our common stock may be volatile and you could lose all or part of your investment. In the recent past, stocks, specifically those traded on the over-the counter (“OTC”) markets, generally have experienced high levels of volatility. Our common stock is traded on the OTC market under the symbol “FNHI” and is not eligible for trading on any national or regional securities exchange or the NASDAQ National Market. While that status is the Company’s longer term objective, a more active trading market for our common stock may never develop, or if such a market develops, it may not be sustained.

In the past, many companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have become subject to securities class action litigation.We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future.Securities litigation against us could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s attention from other business concerns, which could seriously harm our business.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has adopted regulations which generally define a “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions. The market price of our common stock is less than $5.00 per share and therefore is a “penny stock” and is subject to the “penny stock” rules of the SEC.The trading market in our securities is currently limited and relatively illiquid which status makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our common stock.Brokers and dealers effecting transactions in “penny stock” must disclose certain information concerning the transaction, obtain a written agreement from the purchaser and determine that the purchaser is reasonably suitable to purchase the securities. These rules may restrict the ability of brokers or dealers to sell our common stock and may affect your ability to sell shares.

We Have Not Voluntarily Implemented Various Corporate Governance Measures

Federal legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has resulted in the adoption of various corporate governance measures designed to promote the integrity of the corporate management and the securities markets. Some of these measures have been adopted in response to legal requirements. Others have been adopted by companies in response to the requirements of national securities exchanges, such as the NYSE or The NASDAQ Stock Market, on which their securities are listed. Among the corporate governance measures that are required under the rules of national securities exchanges are those that address board of directors' independence, audit committee oversight and the adoption of a Code of Ethics. Our Board of Directors expects to adopt a Code of Ethics at its next Board meeting. The Company has not adopted exchange-mandated corporate governance measures and, since our securities are not listed on a national securities exchange, we are not required to do so. It is possible that if we were to adopt some or all of these corporate governance measures, stockholders would benefit from somewhat greater assurances that internal corporate decisions were being made by disinterested directors and that policies had been implemented to define responsible conduct. For example, in the absence of audit, nominating and compensation committees comprised of at least a majority of independent directors, decisions concerning matters such as compensation packages to our senior officers and recommendations for director nominees may be made by a majority of directors who have an interest in the outcome of the matters being decided. Prospective investors should bear in mind our current lack of corporate governance measures in formulating their investment decisions.

We May Be Exposed to Potential Risks Relating to Our Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX 404”), the SEC has adopted rules requiring public companies to include a report of management on the Company's internal control over financial reporting in its annual reports. While we expect to expend significant resources in developing the necessary documentation and testing procedures required by SOX 404, there is a risk that we will not comply with all of the requirements imposed thereby. At present, there is no precedent available with which to measure compliance adequately. In the event we identify significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that we cannot remediate in a timely manner, investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements and our ability to obtain equity or debt financing could suffer.

The Company Does Not Expect to Pay Dividends in the Foreseeable Future.

The Company has never paid cash dividends on its common stock and has no plans to do so in the foreseeable future. The Company instead intends to retain earnings, if any, to develop and expand its business.

Provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws May Delay or Prevent Take-over Which May Not Be in the Best Interests of Our Shareholders.

Provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws may be deemed to have anti-takeover effects, which include when and by whom special meetings of our stockholders may be called, and may delay, defer or prevent a takeover attempt. In addition, certain provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes also may be deemed to have certain anti-takeover effects which include that control of shares acquired in excess of certain specified thresholds will not possess any voting rights unless these voting rights are approved by a majority of a corporation's disinterested stockholders.

Any Investment in Our Securities Involves a High Degree of Risk

Investors should consider carefully the risks and uncertainties described above, and all other information in this Form 8-K and in any reports hereafter filed with the SEC before deciding whether to purchase or hold our securities. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also become important factors that may harm our business. The occurrence of any of the risks described in this Form 8-K could harm our business. The trading price of our securities could decline due to any of these risks and uncertainties, and investors may lose part or all of their investment.

Safe Harbor for Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements included in this MD&A constitute forward-looking statements, including those identified by the expressions anticipate, believe, plan, estimate, expect, intend, and similar expressions to the extent they relate to FNHI or its management. These forward-looking statements are not facts, promises, or guarantees; rather, they reflect current expectations regarding future results or events. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results, activities, performance, or events to differ materially from current expectations. These include risks related to revenue growth, operating results, industry, products, and litigation, as well as the matters discussed in FNHI’s MD&A under Risk Factors.

FNHI disclaims any obligation to publicly update or to revise any such statements to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations or in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statements may be based, or that may affect the likelihood that actual results will differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included in this report.

Results of Operations

We had no revenue for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014 or 2013.

Operating expenses during the year ended September 30, 2014 totaled $17,431, consisting of professional fees and other miscellaneous costs. Operating expenses during the year ended September 30, 2013 totaled $19,908, consisting of professional fees and other miscellaneous costs.

We had a net loss of $17,431 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, compared to a net loss of $19,908 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 30, 2014, we had $327 of cash in the bank.

Net cash used in operating activities was $(15,968) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, compared to cash used by operating activities of $(19,656) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013.

Cash flows used or provided by investing activities was $-0- for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, compared to $-0- for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013.

Cash flows provided by financing activities was $15,313 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, compared to $20,320 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. The amounts for each year represented contributions from our President and two shareholders.

Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our operational expenses, in their report on our audited financial statements as of and for the years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that led to this disclosure by our independent auditors. There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as we have losses for the years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 totaling ($17,431) and ($19,098) respectively, as well as an accumulated deficit since inception amounting to ($25,335).

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements with any party.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to provisions for uncollectible accounts receivable, inventories, valuation of intangible assets and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The accounting policies that we follow are set forth in Note 2 to our financial statements as included in this annual report. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

On December 16, 2014, Franchise Holdings International, Inc. (FNHI) entered into a three party Definitive Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) to acquire all issued and outstanding shares of TruXmart Ltd. (The Company” or TruXmart”), an Ontario (Canada) corporation located at 1895 Clements Road, Suite 155, Pickering, Ontario CANADA L1W 3R8, for 37,700,000 shares of FNHI (the “FNHI Shares”), representing 92.9925914% of the outstanding shares of FNHI (the “Share Exchange”), calculated post-issuance. The Agreement was with Steven Rossi (“Rossi”), the sole shareholder of TruXmart and with TruXmart. Prior to the Share Exchange, Rossi held all outstanding shares of TruXmart, consisting of 4,791 Class A common shares and TruXmart owned 2,300,000 common shares of FNHI, representing an 80.961285% ownership stake in FNHI. Pursuant to the Share Exchange, Rossi acquired from TruXmart, its 2,300,000 FNHI common shares and an additional 37,700,000 shares of FNHI from FNHI, in exchange for all 4,791 outstanding common shares of TruXmart. As a result of this Agreement, FNHI is filing this Form 8-K. Once the transaction is closed, TruXmart will become the wholly-owned subsidiary of FNHI, with FNHI holding all 4,791 outstanding shares of TruXmart common stock. As a result of this acquisition, FNHI has adopted the fiscal year end of TruXmart, which is December 31.

INDEX TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Franchise Holdings International, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Franchise Holdings International, Inc., a development stage company (“the Company”) as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended, and for the period from March 12, 2001 (inception) through September 30, 2014. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides 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 Franchise Holdings International, Inc., as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, and for the period from March 12, 2001 (inception) through September 30, 2014 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

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 Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company’s significant operating losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

(1) Nature of Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Organization

Franchise Holdings International, Inc. (referenced as “we”, “us”, “our” in the accompanying notes) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 2, 2003. FSGI Corporation was incorporated in the State of Florida on May 15, 1997, and in a reorganization on December 21, 1998 with another corporation named The Martial Arts Network On-Line, Inc. (originally incorporated in Florida on May 23, 1996) changed its name to TMAN Global.Com, Inc. Franchise Holdings International, Inc. and TMAN Global.Com, Inc. consummated a merger on April 30, 2003 whereby Franchise Holdings International, Inc. exchanged 1 common share for all the 90,861 outstanding common shares of TMAN Global.Com, Inc. The purpose of the transaction was a change of domicile. Pursuant to the merger terms, Franchise Holdings International, Inc. was the surviving corporation and TMAN Global.Com, Inc. ceased to exist. The accompanying financial statements include the activities of Franchise Holdings International, Inc. and its predecessor corporations. Currently we are engaged in evaluating franchise opportunities, and are considered to be in the development stage.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has a limited operating history and has suffered operating losses since Inception (March 12, 2001). These factors, among others, may indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern.

In recent years, we have relied upon our president and certain shareholders to contribute capital to maintain our limited operations (see Notes 2 and 3). There is no assurance that these loans will continue, or that we will be successful in raising the capital required to continue our operations.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and/or liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to meet our obligations on a timely basis, and, ultimately to attaining profitability.

Development Stage Company

We are in the development stage in accordance with the Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (FASB ASC) 915.

Use of Estimates

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

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less when acquired, to be cash equivalents. We had no financial instruments that qualified as cash equivalents at September 30, 2014 and 2013.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash and current liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these items. These fair value estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect these estimates. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes, nor do we utilize derivative instruments.

The FASB ASC clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. It also requires disclosure about how fair value is determined for assets and liabilities and establishes a hierarchy for which these assets and liabilities must be grouped, based on significant levels of inputs as follows:

The determination of where assets and liabilities fall within this hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Earnings (Loss) per Common Share

We report earnings (loss) per share using a dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share excludes the impact of common stock equivalents. Diluted earnings (loss) per share utilizes the average market price per share when applying the treasury stock method in determining common stock equivalents. At September 30, 2014 and 2013, there were no variances between the basic and diluted loss per share as there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes as required by the Income Tax Topic of the FASB ASC, which requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

We have analyzed filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where we are required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions. The Company has identified its federal tax return and its state tax return in Colorado as “major” tax jurisdictions, as defined. We are not currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service or any other jurisdiction. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flow. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded.

(4) Income Taxes

The Company has incurred net operating losses since inception resulting in a deferred tax asset, which has been fully allowed for; therefore, the net benefit and expense resulted in no income tax provision.
