Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

The information in this Current Report and Exhibit 99.1 hereto is being furnished pursuant to Items 2.02 and 7.01 of Form 8-K and shall not be (i) deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of such section, or (ii) incorporated by reference into any registration statement or document pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

On February 6, 2007, the Chief Executive Officer of Tri-S Security Corporation (the “Company”) learned that an Investor Fact Sheet containing certain information regarding the Company’s estimated results for the quarter and year ended 2006 (the “Information”) was posted to the Company’s website on or about January 24, 2007 and subsequently disclosed to certain securities market participants. The Company is hereby providing prompt public disclosure of the Information for purposes of complying with Regulation FD. A copy of the portions of the Investor Fact Sheet containing the Information is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report.

Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report contains the Company’s calculations regarding EBITDA (calculated as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, net income with respect to Tri-S Security’s equity interest in Army Fleet Support, LLC, non-cash stock-based compensation and certain other incomes/expenses), which is a “non-GAAP financial measure” as defined in Item 10 of Regulation S-K. Set forth in the table below for each of the periods presented is a quantitative reconciliation of EBITDA to net loss, the measure which the Company believes is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
