The offering will continue until the earlier of 12 months from the date this Offering is qualified for sale (which date may be extended for an additional 90 days at our option) or the date when all shares have been sold.

See “Risk Factors” to read about factors you should consider before buying shares of common stock.
Generally, no sale may be made to you in this offering if the aggregate purchase price you pay is more than 10% of the greater of your annual income or net worth. Different rules apply to accredited investors and non-natural persons. Before making any representation that your investment does not exceed applicable thresholds, we encourage you to review Rule 251(d)(2)(i)(C) of Regulation A. For general information on investing, we encourage you to refer to www.investor.gov.
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission does not pass upon the merits of or give its approval to any securities offered or the terms of the offering, nor does it pass upon the accuracy or completeness of any offering circular or other solicitation materials.

Risk Factors
Our ability to successfully operate our business and achieve our goals and strategies is subject to numerous risks as discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors”
Company Information
Legion Capital Corporation was originally incorporated as GreenSky Corporation on August 7, 2015 in Delaware, and merged with Legion Capital Corporation (the “Company”), a Florida Corporation on January 15, 2016.
Our corporate headquarters are located at 301 E. Pine St. Ste. 850 Orlando, FL 32801. Telephone: 4079684234. Our website is www.LegionCapitalCorp.com. We do not incorporate the information on or accessible through our website into this Offering Circular, and you should not consider any information on, or that can be accessed through, our website a part of this Offering Circular.
This Offering Circular summary highlights information contained elsewhere and does not contain all of the information that you should consider in making your investment decision. Before investing in our common stock, you should carefully read this entire Offering Circular, including our financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Offering Circular. You should also consider, among other things, the matters described under "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in each case appearing elsewhere in this Offering Circular.

4 |
Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider each of the following risks, together with all other information set forth in this Offering Circular, including the consolidated financial statements and the related notes, before making a decision to buy our common stock. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
Investments in small businesses and start-up companies are often risky.
Small businesses may depend heavily upon a single customer, supplier, or employee whose departure would seriously damage the company's profitability. The demand for the company's product may be seasonal or be impacted by the overall economy, or the company could face other risks that are specific to its industry or type of business. The Company may also have a hard time competing against larger companies who can negotiate for better prices from suppliers, produce goods and services on a large scale more economically, or take advantage of bigger marketing budgets. Furthermore, a small business could face risks from lawsuits, governmental regulations, and other potential impediments to growth.
There is no public trading market for the securities, and none may develop.
There is no active trading market for the securities being offered and no market may develop in the foreseeable future for any of such securities. Even though the securities being sold hereunder are being registered for sale, that does not mean that an actual market will develop for the subsequent sale of purchase of the Company’s stock. If no subsequent market develops investors may end up with an illiquid investment and not be able to sell or otherwise monetize its stock.
The Company has limited operating history.
The Company is still in an early phase, and is just beginning to implement its business plan. There can be no assurance that it will ever operate profitably. The likelihood of its success should be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays usually encountered by companies in their early stages of development, with low barriers to entry. The Company may not be successful in attaining the objectives necessary for it to overcome these risks and uncertainties.
The Company may need additional capital, which may not be available.
The Company may require funds in excess of its existing cash resources to fund operating deficits, develop new products or services, establish and expand its marketing capabilities, and finance general and administrative activities. Due to market conditions at the time the Company may need additional funding, or due to its financial condition at that time, it is possible that the Company will be unable to obtain additional funding as and when it needs it. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funding, it may not be able to repay debts when they are due and payable. If the Company is able to obtain capital it may be on unfavorable terms or terms which excessively dilute then-existing equity holders. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funding as and when needed, it could be forced to delay its development, marketing and expansion efforts and, if it continues to experience losses, potentially cease operations.
The Company's management has broad discretion in how the Company use the net proceeds of an offering.
The Company's management will have considerable discretion over the use of proceeds from their offering. You may not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately.
The Company may not be able to manage its potential growth.
For the Company to succeed, it needs to experience significant expansion. There can be no assurance that it will achieve this expansion. This expansion, if accomplished, may place a significant strain on the Company's management, operational and financial resources. To manage any material growth, the Company will be required to implement operational and financial systems, procedures and controls. It also will be required to expand its finance, administrative and operations staff. There can be no assurance that the Company's current and planned personnel, systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support its future operations at any increased level. The Company's failure to manage growth effectively could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations and financial condition.
5 |
The Company faces significant competition.
The Company faces competition from other companies, some of which might have received more funding than the Company has. One or more of the Company's competitors could offer services similar to those offered by the Company at significantly lower prices, which would cause downward pressure on the prices the Company would be able to charge for its services. If the Company is not able to charge the prices it anticipates charging for its services, there may be a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and financial condition. In addition, while the Company believes it is well-positioned to be the market leader in its industry, the emergence of one of its existing or future competitors as a market leader may limit the Company's ability to achieve national brand recognition, which could also have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and financial condition.
The Company's growth relies on market acceptance.
While the Company believes that there will be significant customer demand for its products/services, there is no assurance that there will be broad market acceptance of the Company's offerings. There also may not be broad market acceptance of the Company's offerings if its competitors offer products/services which are preferred by prospective customers. In such event, there may be a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and financial condition, and the Company may not be able to achieve its goals.
The Company may not pay dividends for the foreseeable future.
Unless otherwise specified in the offering documents and subject to state law, you are not entitled to receive any dividends on your interest in the Company. Accordingly, any potential investor who anticipates the need for current dividends or income from an investment should not purchase any of the securities offered on the Site.
Because the Company's founders, directors and executive officers may be among the Company's largest stockholders, they can exert significant control over the Company's business and affairs and have actual or potential interests that may depart from those of subscribers in the offering.
The Company's founders, directors and executive officers own or control a significant percentage of the Company.
Additionally, the holdings of the Company's directors and executive officers may increase in the future upon vesting or other maturation of exercise rights under any of the options or warrants they may hold or in the future be granted or if they otherwise acquire additional interest in the Company. The interests of such persons may differ from the interests of the Company's other stockholders, including purchasers of securities in the offering. As a result, in addition to their board seats and offices, such persons will have significant influence over and control all corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, irrespective of how the Company's other stockholders, including purchasers in the offering, may vote, including the following actions:
1. | to elect or defeat the election of the Company's directors; |
2. | to amend or prevent amendment of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws; |
3. | to effect or prevent a merger, sale of assets or other corporate transaction; and |
4. | to control the outcome of any other matter submitted to the Company's stockholders for vote. |
Such persons' ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of the Company, which in turn could reduce the Company's stock price or prevent the Company's stockholders from realizing a premium over the Company's stock price.
Our operating results may continue to be adversely affected as a result of unfavorable market, economic, social and political conditions.
An unstable global economic, social and political environment may have a negative impact on demand for our services, our business and our operations, including the U.S. economic environment. The economic, social and political environment has or may negatively impact, among other things:
● | current and future demand for our services; |
● | price competition for our products and services; |
6 |
● | the price of our common stock; |
● | our liquidity; |
● | our ability to service our debt, to obtain financing or assume new debt obligations; and |
● | our ability to obtain payment for outstanding debts owed to us by our customers or other parties with whom we do business. |
In addition, to the extent that the economic, social and political environment impacts specific industry and geographic sectors in which many of our customers are concentrated, that may further negatively impact our business.
Our business depends heavily on our officers and directors.
Our future ability to execute our business plan depends upon the continued service of our CEO Jim Byrd, our President Brad Hilton and our CMO Shane Hackett. If we lost the services of one or more of our key personnel, or if one or more of our executive officers or employees joined a competitor or otherwise competed with us, our business may be adversely affected. We cannot assure that we will be able to retain or replace our key personnel.
If we are unable to retain the members of our management team or attract and retain qualified management team members in the future, our business and growth could suffer.
Our success and future growth depend, to a significant degree, on the continued contributions of the members of our management team. Each member of our management team is an at-will employee and may voluntarily terminate his or her employment with us at any time with minimal notice. We also may need to hire additional management team members to adequately manage our growing business. We may not be able to retain or identify and attract additional qualified management team members. Qualified individuals are in high demand, and we may incur significant costs to attract and retain them. If we lose the services of any member of our management team or if we are unable to attract and retain additional qualified senior managers, our business and growth could suffer.
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
We make forward-looking statements under the “Summary,” “Risk Factors,” “Business,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and in other sections of this Offering Circular. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “might,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue,” and the negative of these terms and other comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements, which are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us, may include projections of our future financial performance based on our growth strategies and anticipated trends in our business. These statements are only predictions based on our current expectations and projections about future events. There are important factors that could cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from the results, level of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. In particular, you should consider the numerous risks and uncertainties described under “Risk Factors.
While we believe we have identified material risks, these risks and uncertainties are not exhaustive. Other sections of this Offering Circular describe additional factors that could adversely impact our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
7 |
Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, level of activity, performance or achievements. Moreover, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any of these forward-looking statements. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. We are under no duty to update any of these forward-looking statements after the date of this Offering Circular to conform our prior statements to actual results or revised expectations, and we do not intend to do so.
Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about:
● | our business’ strategies and investment policies; |
● | our business’ financing plans and the availability of capital; |
● | potential growth opportunities available to our business; |
● | the risks associated with potential acquisitions by us; |
● | the recruitment and retention of our officers and employees; |
● | our expected levels of compensation; |
● | the effects of competition on our business; and |
● | the impact of future legislation and regulatory changes on our business. |
We caution you not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Offering Circular.
The following Use of Proceeds is based on estimates made by management. The Company planned the Use of Proceeds after deducting estimated offering expenses estimated to be $10,000. Management prepared the milestones based on three levels of offering raise success: 25% of the Maximum Offering proceeds raised ($250,000), 50% of the Maximum Offering proceeds raised ($500,000), 75% of the Maximum Offering proceeds raised ($750,000) and the Maximum Offering proceeds raised of $1,000,000 through the offering. The costs associated with operating as a public company are included in all our budgeted scenarios and management is responsible for the preparation of the required documents to keep the costs to a minimum.
Although we have no minimum offering, we have calculated use of proceeds such that if we raise 25% of the offering is budgeted to sustain operations for a twelve-month period. 25% of the Maximum Offering is sufficient to keep the Company current with its public listing status costs with prudently budgeted funds remaining which will be sufficient to complete the development of our marketing package. If the Company were to raise 50% of the Maximum Offering, then we would be able to expand our marketing outside the US. Raising the Maximum Offering will enable the Company to implement our full business. If we begin to generate profits, we plan to increase our marketing and sales activity accordingly.

● | Addition of administrative and sales personnel as the business grows, | |
● | Increases in advertising, public relations and sales promotions as we commence operations, | |

Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors
Florida law authorizes corporations to limit or eliminate (with a few exceptions) the personal liability of directors to corporations and their stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of directors’ fiduciary duties as directors. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws include provisions that eliminate, to the extent allowable under Florida law, the personal liability of directors or officers for monetary damages for actions taken as a director or officer, as the case may be. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws also provide that we must indemnify and advance reasonable expenses to our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Florida law. We are also expressly authorized to carry directors’ and officers’ insurance for our directors, officers, employees and agents for some liabilities. We currently maintain directors’ and officers’ insurance covering certain liabilities that may be incurred by directors and officers in the performance of their duties.
The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our articles of incorporation and bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions may also have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. In addition, your investment may be adversely affected to the extent that, in a class action or direct suit, we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to the indemnification provisions in our articles of incorporation and bylaws.
There is currently no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of directors, officers or employees for which indemnification is sought.
Transfer Agent
The transfer agent for our common stock is ClearTrust, LLC

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal controls relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal controls. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue from providing asset management services to clients. The Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria are met:
(1) | There is persuasive evidence of an arrangement with a client; |
(2) | The agreed-upon services have been provided; |
(3) | Fees are fixed or determinable; and |
(4) | Collection is probable. |
A fixed percentage asset-based management fee is earned periodically for providing asset management services. These fees are generally recognized as revenue each period in accordance with the terms of the asset management contract.
Income Taxes
Provisions for income taxes are based on taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred taxes on temporary differences between the amount of taxable income and pretax financial income and between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in the financial statements at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes.
In assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences such as loss carry-forwards and tax credits become deductible. Management considers projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment and ensuring that the deferred tax asset valuation allowance is adjusted as appropriate.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
FASB ASC 825, Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments when it is practical to estimate. Management believes the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable are reasonable estimates of their fair value because of their short-term nature and interest rates.
Equity-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 Stock Compensation (ASC 718). The computation of the expense associated with stock-based compensation requires the use of a valuation model. The FASB issued accounting guidance requires significant judgment and the use of estimates, particularly surrounding Black-Scholes assumptions such as stock price volatility, expected option lives, and expected option forfeiture rates, to value equity-based compensation. We currently use a Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of our stock options. We primarily use historical data to determine the assumptions to be used in the Black-Scholes model and have no reason to believe that future data is likely to differ materially from historical data. However, changes in the assumptions to reflect future stock price volatility and future stock award exercise experience could result in a change in the assumptions used to value awards in the future and may result in a material change to the fair value calculation of stock-based awards. This accounting guidance requires the recognition of the fair value of stock compensation in net income. Although every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of our estimates and assumptions, significant unanticipated changes in those estimates, interpretations and assumptions may result in recording stock option expense that may materially impact our financial statements for each respective reporting period.
Discontinued Operations
On August 16, 2016, the Company spun out its subsidiary, Legion Securities, LLC, to the its shareholders in a tax-free split off under Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code.
The assets and results of Legion Securities, LLC are presented as a separate line item in the consolidated statements of operations and the consolidated balance sheet entitled “Assets/Liabilities sold relating to discontinued operations” and “Assets/Liabilities retained related to discontinued operations”. The financial information in the consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements has been revised to reflect only the results of continued operations.

On November 7, 2016, the Company issued 500,000 stock options outstanding to another officer of the Company. Those options vest at a rate of 100,000 per year over a period of 5 years. The strike price for the options are (i) 100,000 at $1 per share, (ii) 100,000 at $1.50, (iii) 100,000 at $1.75, and (iv) 200,000 at $2. Once vested, all options have a 5-year term and include a provision for cashless exercise.
The fair value of the Company’s common stock option grants is estimated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the common stock options, and future dividends. Compensation expense is recorded based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and based on actual experience. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model could materially affect compensation expense recorded in future periods.
F-13 |
LEGION CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 7 - STOCK OPTIONS (continued)
The following range of assumptions in the Black-Scholes option pricing model was used to determine fair value of the options issued:
Expected Dividend Yield—The Company has never paid dividends and does not expect to pay dividends.
Risk-Free Interest Rate—The risk-free interest rate was based on the market yield currently available on United States Treasury securities with maturities approximately equal to the option’s expected term.
Expected Term—Expected term represents the period that the Company’s stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding. The Company’s assumptions about the expected term have been based on that of companies that have similar industry, life cycle, revenue, and market capitalization and the historical data on employee exercises.
Expected Volatility—The expected volatility is based on the historical stock volatilities of several of the Company’s publicly listed comparable companies over a period equal to the expected terms of the options, as the Company does not have a long trading history.
Forfeiture Rate—The Company estimates its forfeiture rate based on an analysis of its actual forfeitures and will continue to evaluate the adequacy of the forfeiture rate based on actual forfeiture experience, analysis of employee turnover behavior, and other factors. The impact from a forfeiture rate adjustment will be recognized in full in the period of adjustment, and if the actual number of future forfeitures differs from that estimated by the Company, the Company may be required to record adjustments to stock-based compensation expense in future periods.
Each of the inputs discussed above is subjective and generally requires significant management judgment.
The value of the award is recognized over the vesting period. As of December 31, 2016, the value of unvested options was $49,000 to be recognized over a period of 7 months.
NOTE 8 - LEASES
The Company leases its office under an expense sharing agreement, entered on April 8, 2016, with a company controlled by the CEO of the Company, and agreed to pay a fixed monthly payment of $4,000, plus sales tax, to lease for office space. The agreement is for a period of 1 year, subject to renewal by agreement of all parties.
In August 2016, the Company signed an office lease in Arizona, for a monthly rent of approximately $800. The lease expires on July 31, 2017.
