Business Context and Reporting Period
This Form 8-K was filed by Hirequest, Inc. (formerly Command Center, Inc.) on September 13, 2019. The report addresses a correction to the company's stock register following the July 15, 2019, merger with Hire Quest Holdings, LLC. The filing details the issuance of additional shares to Legacy Hire Quest Members to rectify an inadvertent omission of a 2018 restricted stock grant from the merger consideration calculation.
Key Financial Metrics
The filing does not provide standard financial metrics such as revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, debt, or liquidity. The only financial data presented relates to the valuation of the corrective share issuance:
- Corrective Shares Issued: 102,332 shares of common stock.
- Total Merger Consideration Received: 9,939,668 shares.
- Valuation Basis: $5.76 per share (Nasdaq closing price on July 15, 2019).

Material Changes
The material change reported is the issuance of 102,332 additional shares of common stock to Legacy Hire Quest Members. Previously, these members received 9,837,336 shares because the company's transfer agent inadvertently failed to reflect a grant of 48,156 restricted stock shares made to non-employee directors on July 23, 2018, in the stock register at the time of the merger. This omission resulted in the Legacy Members receiving fewer shares than entitled under the Merger Agreement.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
The filing contains no forward-looking guidance, outlook, or management commentary regarding future operations. The transaction was executed via Board action on September 13, 2019, and the issuance was exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. No specific risks or contingencies beyond the correction of the historical record are disclosed in this report.
Investor Verification Checklist
