Look for sugar in the ingredient list instead of in the nutrition profile. Many foods - like vegetables - do contain natural sugars but the sugar in vegetables are not the ones you have to worry about. The sugar in the nutrition profile is part of the total carb count. In some foods it's broken out into a separate line. You don't have to add the sugar and carbs together for the total because the carb count is the total.

Does the A-1 sauce have sugar in the ingredient list? Whether you want to eat a small amount of it in a sauce is up to you. Some people avoid it in all foods and others don't mind a little here and there. If you're losing weight and feeling good, you're doing OK.
