to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements. The Company
has realized minimal revenues from its planned principal business purpose and, accordingly, is considered to be in its development stage

Business
Description
We
were incorporated on September 29, 2001 in the State of Nevada under the name of Biocorp North America Inc. On March 18, 2005,
we filed an amendment to our certificate of incorporation to change our name to Cereplast, Inc. We have developed and are commercializing
proprietary bio-based resins through two complementary product families: Cereplast Compostables ® resins which are
compostable, renewable, ecologically sound substitutes for petroleum-based plastics, and Cereplast Sustainables™ resins (including
the Cereplast Hybrid Resins product line), which replaces up to 90% of the petroleum-based content of traditional plastics with materials
from renewable resources.
On
February 10, 2014, the Company, filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code
in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Indiana (the “Bankruptcy Court”). On February 14, 2014,
the Company filed a motion in the Bankruptcy Court seeking to convert the Company’s Chapter 11 Case to a Chapter 7 bankruptcy case.
On March 27, 2014, the court granted the Company’s motion and on that date the Company’s Chapter 11 Case was converted to
a Chapter 7 case. As a result, the Company adopted liquidation basis of accounting on the discontinued operations according to ASC 205-30
“Presentation of Financial Statements – Liquidation Basis of Accounting”, accordingly the accumulated deficit generated
prior to bankruptcy proceedings remained unadjusted.
On
January 31, 2014 the Board of Directors of Cereplast, Inc. (the “Company”) approved a 1-for-50 reverse split (the “Reverse
Split) which was previously approved by the shareholders on April 5, 2013 and previously disclosed on Current Report Form 8-K filed on
April 5, 2013.
On
February 3, 2014, Cereplast, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to effect
the reverse split (the “Reverse Split”), effective as of February 21, 2014.
On

in exchange for settlement of a portion of a related party loan for amounts advanced to the Company in the amount of $20,100, and a note

The
accompanying financial statements are prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(“GAAP”). The Company is a development stage enterprise devoting substantial efforts to establishing a new business, financial
planning, raising capital, and research into products which may become part of the Company’s product portfolio. The Company has
not realized significant sales since inception. A development stage company is defined as one in which all efforts are devoted substantially
to establishing a new business and, even if planned principal operations have commenced, revenues are insignificant.
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has not
yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and is dependent on debt and equity financing to
fund its operations. Management of the Company is making efforts to raise additional funding until a registration statement relating
to an equity funding facility is in effect. While management of the Company believes that it will be successful in its capital formation
and planned operating activities, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional equity capital, or be successful
in the development and commercialization of the products it develops or initiates collaboration agreements thereon. The accompanying
financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of
assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going
concern.
Note
2 – Summary of significant accounting policies
Unaudited
Interim Financial Information
These
unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial reporting and the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. Therefore, certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations
and cash flows for the periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.
The
balance sheets and certain comparative information as of December 31, 2020 are derived from the audited financial statements and related
notes for the year ended December 31, 2020, included in the Company’s Form 10. These unaudited interim financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes contained in our Form 10.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
For
purposes of reporting within the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all cash on hand, cash accounts not subject to withdrawal
restrictions or penalties, and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash
equivalents.
Employee
Stock-Based Compensation
The
Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718 Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC
718 addresses all forms of share-based payment (“SBP”) awards including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans
and stock incentive shares. Under ASC 718 awards result in a cost that is measured at fair value on the awards’ grant date, based
on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest and will result in a charge to operations.
Loss
per Share
Basic
earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
available. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased
to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and
if the additional common shares were dilutive. The Company’s diluted loss per share is the same as the basic loss per share for
the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, as there are no potential shares outstanding that would have a dilutive effect.
Income
Taxes
Income
tax expense is based on pretax financial accounting income. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected tax consequences
of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts. Valuation allowances are recorded
to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that will more likely than not be realized. The Company recorded a valuation allowance against
its deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
The
Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes using a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The
first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more
likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any.
The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. The
Company classifies the liability for unrecognized tax benefits as current to the extent that the Company anticipates payment (or receipt)
of cash within one year. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized in the provision for income
taxes.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, as part of its initiative to reduce complexity
in accounting standards. The amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim
periods therein. Early adoption of the standard is permitted, including adoption in interim or annual periods for which financial statements
have not yet been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that the ASU will have on its consolidated financial
statements.
Note
3- Going Concern
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has not
yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and is dependent on debt and equity financing to
fund its operations. Management of the Company is making efforts to raise additional funding until a registration statement relating
to an equity funding facility is in effect. While management of the Company believes that it will be successful in its capital formation
and planned operating activities, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional equity capital or be successful
in the development and commercialization of the products it develops or initiates collaboration agreements thereon. The accompanying
financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of
assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going
concern.

NOTE
7 – INCOME TAXES
Deferred
taxes represent the net tax effects of the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
reporting purposes. Temporary differences result primarily from the recording of tax benefits of net operating loss carry forwards.
As
of March 31, 2021, the Company has an insufficient history to support the likelihood of ultimate realization of the benefit associated
with the deferred tax asset. Accordingly, a valuation allowance has been established for the full amount of the net deferred tax asset.
Uncertain
Tax Positions
Interest
associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as income tax, and penalties are classified in selling, general and administrative
expenses in the statements of operations. For March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits and related
interest and penalties expenses. Currently, the Company is not subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions.
Note

accordance with SFAS 165 (ASC 855-10) management has performed an evaluation of subsequent events through the date that the financial
statements were available to be issued, and has determined that it does not have any material subsequent events to disclose in these
financial statements.
