SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION |
Hometown International, Inc. (the “Company”)
was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on May 19, 2014. Through its wholly owned subsidiary, Your Hometown Deli, LLC (“Your
Hometown Deli”), the Company is the originator of a new “Delicatessen” concept, featuring “home-style” sandwiches
and other entrees in a casual friendly atmosphere, designed to be comfortable community gathering places for guests of all ages. Targeted
towards smaller towns and communities, the Company’s first and only store is located in Paulsboro, New Jersey.
On January 18, 2014, Your Hometown
Deli was formed under the laws of the State of New Jersey. On May 29, 2014, Your Hometown Deli entered into a Membership Interest Purchase
Agreement with the Company. For accounting purposes, this transaction was accounted for as a merger of entities under common control and
has been treated as a recapitalization of the Company with Your Hometown Deli as the accounting acquirer. The historical financial statements
of the accounting acquirer became the financial statements of the registrant. The Company did not recognize goodwill or any intangible
assets in connection with the transaction. The 5,000,000 shares issued to the shareholder of Your Hometown Deli in conjunction with the
share exchange transaction has been presented as outstanding for all periods.
The Company was forced to temporarily
close the delicatessen due to the stay-at-home order issued by the Governor of New Jersey on March 9, 2020, resulting from the outbreak
of COVID-19. The delicatessen was re-opened on September 8, 2020, with a “soft opening” to a limited audience, prior to its
“Grand Re-Opening” to the public on September 22, 2020. The temporary closure and other effects of COVID-19 had a material
impact on the Company’s business during 2020, and continued to have a material impact on the Company’s business during 2021
by hindering staff availability, limiting the flow of customers into our delicatessen, and restricting our supply chain. Although the
Company is unable to estimate the ultimate impact, it is anticipated that the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to impact our business in
2022. The Company is slowly regaining its customer base since reopening.
Going forward, the Company intends
to seek, investigate and, if such investigation warrants, engage in a business combination with a private entity whose business presents
an opportunity for our shareholders. The Company has identified a potential target company and is currently engaged in discussions regarding
a possible business combination involving the two companies. The consummation of the transaction is contingent upon the parties entering
into definitive agreements and satisfaction of the closing conditions set forth in those agreements, and other conditions, including,
but not limited to, satisfactory completion by the Company and the target of all necessary business and legal due diligence. There is
no assurance that the Company will consummate a transaction with this potential target company, or successfully identify and evaluate
other suitable business opportunities, or that the Company will conclude a business combination at all.
The Company’s accounting year
end is December 31, which is the year end of Your Hometown Deli, LLC.
(B) Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying December 31, 2021
and 2020 consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hometown International, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Your
Hometown Deli, LLC. All intercompany accounts have been eliminated upon consolidation.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020
(C) Use
of Estimates
In preparing financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
revenues and expenses during the reported period. Significant estimates include valuation of in-kind contribution of service, valuation
of deferred tax assets and operating lease assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(D) Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid
temporary cash investments with an original maturity of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2021 and December 31,
2020, the Company had no cash equivalents.
(E) Loss Per Share
Basic and diluted net loss per common
share is computed based upon the weighted average common shares outstanding as defined by FASB ASC No. 260, “Earnings Per Share.”
Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents
and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period”. For December 31, 2021 and 2020, warrants were not included in
the computation of income/ (loss) per share because their inclusion is anti-dilutive.
The computation of basic and diluted
loss per share for December 31, 2021 and 2020 excludes the common stock equivalents of the following potentially dilutive securities because
their inclusion would be anti-dilutive:

(F) Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes
under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”). Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized
for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities
and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred
tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the
Company has a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $1,366,000 and $736,000 available to offset future taxable income through
December 31, 2041. The valuation allowance was established to reduce the deferred tax asset to the amount that will more likely than not
be realized. This is necessary due to the Company’s continued operating loss and the uncertainty of the Company’s ability
to utilize approximately $199,000 of the net operating loss carryforwards before they will expire through the year 2037 and approximately
$1,167,000 of net operating loss carryforwards that can be carry forward indefinitely subject to limitation.
The net change in the valuation allowance
for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was an increase of $114,150 and $97,227 respectively.
The Company’s federal income
tax returns for the years 2018-2021 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service through 2026.
(G) Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded
at cost and depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset or the underlying lease
term for leasehold improvements, whichever is shorter onset the property and equipment is put into service.
(H) Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance
with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”.
The standard states that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount
that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020
The Company generates revenue operating
a delicatessen. Revenues from the operations of Company-owned delicatessen are recognized when sales occur.
(I) Fair Value of Financial
Instruments
The Company measures its financial
assets and liabilities in accordance with GAAP. For certain of our financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable, and the short-term
portion of long-term debt, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities.
We adopted accounting guidance for
financial and non-financial assets and liabilities (ASC 820). The adoption did not have a material impact on our results of operations,
financial position or liquidity. This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures.
This standard does not require any new fair value measurements, but rather applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require
or permit fair value measurements. This guidance does not apply to measurements related to share-based payments. This guidance discusses
valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash
flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The guidance utilizes a fair value
hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief
description of those three levels:
|
● |
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore developed using estimates and assumptions developed by us, which reflect those that a market participant would use. |
(J) Concentrations
The Company maintains various bank
accounts at one bank, which, at times, may have balances that exceed federally insured limits. The Company believes it is not exposed
to any significant credit risk on its cash balances and has not experienced any losses in such accounts. At December 31, 2021 and December
31, 2020, the Company had cash balances in excess of FDIC limits of $898,523 and $1,147,290, respectively.
(K) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
All newly issued accounting pronouncements
but not yet effective have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable.
(L) Business Segments
The Company operates in one segment
and therefore segment information is not presented.
(M) Inventories
Inventories consist of food and beverages,
and are stated at cost.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020
Operating lease assets and operating
lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement
date. The operating lease right-of-use (ROU) asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct
costs incurred, if any. In calculating the present value of the revised lease payments, the Company elected to utilize its incremental
borrowing rate based on the revised lease terms as of the March 22, 2021, re-measurement date. This rate was determined to be 10%, and
the Company determined the initial present value, at inception, of $10,569.
The lease expense is recognized over
the expected term on a straight-line basis. Operating leases are recognized on the balance sheet as operating lease assets, current operating
lease liabilities and non-current operating lease liabilities.

HOMETOWN INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2021 AND 2020
As reflected in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements, the Company used cash in operations of $396,185, has an accumulated deficit of $1,919,563, and has a net loss of
$481,287 for the year ended December 31, 2021.
On March 23, 2020, the Company temporarily
closed the delicatessen due to the stay-at-home order issued by the Governor of New Jersey. Although the Stay at Home at Home Order was
lifted, on October 24, 2020, the Governor signed Executive Order No. 191 extending the Public Health Emergency for another 30 days.
The deli was re-opened on September 8, 2020, with a “soft opening” to a limited audience, prior to its “Grand Re-Opening”
to the public on September 22, 2020.
The Company is slowly regaining its
customer base since reopening. Even though the delicatessen has been re-opened, the Company has experienced a slowdown in customer’s
visit due to the current economic condition. There can be no assurance that the Company will generate sufficient revenues to continue
its operations. The Company expects the growth rate and sales to be volatile in the near term.
As of December 31, 2021, the Company
had approximately $1,149,369 of cash on hand. The Company estimates its cash burn rate of approximately $25,000 per month. Management
believes that the actions taken with respect to the COVID-19 pandemic and current working capital are sufficient to sustain its current
operations at its current spending levels for the next 12 months. However, the Company is unable to estimate the ultimate impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic on its financial condition and future results of operations.
On January 1, 2022, the Company entered
into a six-month non-cancelable operating lease with an unrelated party for its office space at a monthly rate of $350 per month. At the
end of six months, the Company has an option to renew for an additional six months at a monthly rate of $375.
