Recent Developments

Name Change and Adoption of Amended and Restated Bylaws

Effective as of December 9, 2004, Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc., a Nevada corporation, formerly Ciro International, Inc., (the “Company”) amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name from “Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc.” to “Industrial Enterprises of America, Inc.” by filing a Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada.

Effective as of December 9, 2003, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws. The Board of Directors desired to amend the existing Bylaws mainly due to the fact that such bylaws were adopted by the Company’s predecessor, Mid-Way Medical and Diagnostic Center, Inc., in 1997.

Merger

As previously disclosed, on February 13, 2003, Ciro International, Inc. (“Ciro”) entered into a Letter of Intent with Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc., a Texas corporation ("ABC Texas"), pursuant to which, Ciro and ABC Texas explored the possibility of a merger or share exchange between the parties.

Also as previously disclosed, effective as of June 12, 2003, Ciro and ABC Texas entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) whereby a wholly owned subsidiary of Ciro, Ciro Acquisition Corp., a Texas corporation (which was inappropriately identified in the Merger Agreement as Advanced Bio/Chem Acquisition Corp.), merged with and into ABC Texas in a tax free exchange of shares at which time ABC Texas became a wholly owned subsidiary of Ciro (the "Merger"). On the effective date of the Merger, the stockholders of ABC Texas received shares of Ciro on a one-for-one basis in exchange for their shares in ABC Texas. As a result of the Merger, on the effective date, the stockholders of ABC Texas held approximately 65% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, , and the Company owns 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of ABC Texas. At the effective time of the Merger the officers of ABC Texas remained the management team of ABC Texas and certain of those employees became officers of the Company. Following the Merger, the Board of Directors of the Company consisted of persons nominated by the stockholders of ABC Texas prior to the Merger. In June 2003, Ciro changed its name to Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc.

On June 9, 2003, the Company sold all of the issued and outstanding common stock of its wholly owned subsidiary Ciro Jewelry, Inc. (“Ciro Jewelry”) to Merchant’s T&F, Inc., a company owned by Mr. Murray A. Wilson, the majority stockholder of the Company. The sale price of such stock, $4,000, was equivalent to the amount owed by the Company to Merchants T&F, Inc. for management fees. Ciro Jewelry owns a trademark for the “Ciro” jewelry name in certain countries. Until the time of the stock sale, the Company licensed this trademark and received royalties from such licenses.
 
Prior Name Change
 
The Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to “Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc.” The Company

filed a Certificate of Amendment on June 20, 2003 with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to reflect such name change.

Sale to Power3 Medical Products, Inc.

In May 2004, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), among the Company, Power3 Medical Products, Inc., a New York corporation ("Power3"), and Steven B. Rash and Ira Goldknopf (collectively, the "Shareholders"). The sale was approved by the Company’s shareholders by proxy. As provided in the Agreement, the Company sold to Power3 all of the Company’s assets in consideration for 15,000,000 shares of the common stock, par value $.001 per share, of Power3. The assets disposed of by the Company included all tangible personal property, intellectual property, rights in contracts that the Company is a party to, along with intangible property, including goodwill. In consideration for the benefits that they received by virtue of the transaction, each of the Shareholders agre ed to make the representations, warranties, and indemnifications in the Agreement jointly and severally, along with the Company, and each of the Shareholders agreed to enter into and be bound by a Non-Competition Agreement and an Employment Agreement containing, among other things, covenants respecting confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation. The terms of the Agreement were determined by arms' length negotiations between the parties.

Appointment of New Directors and Officers

In May 2004, Steven B. Rash, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and Ira Goldknopf, the Company’s Chief Science Officer, resigned. In July 2004, the sole director of the Company, Helen Park, resigned and Crawford Shaw was appointed as sole director, President and Chief Executive Officer. The Company’s current management has no information as to the departure or service of Eric Becker and Gene Thomas. The Company will continue to research to see if such information is available. In August 2004, John Mazzuto and Michael Collyer were appointed as directors to fill the vacancies on the Board of Directors. On October 15, 2004, the Board of Directors elected Crawford Shaw as the Company’s Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President, John D. Mazzuto as Vice Chairman of the Board, Ch ief Financial Officer and Assistant Secretary, Michael Collyer as Secretary and General Counsel, Dennis O’Neill as Controller and Ilene Engelberg as Assistant Controller. Unfortunately, Mr. Collyer, a director, member of the Company’s Compensation Committee and the Company’s Secretary and General Counsel, passed away on December 15, 2004.



2004 Stock Option Plan

In August 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the adoption of the 2004 Stock Option Plan. The 2004 Stock Option Plan permits the grant of (i) options exercisable for shares of the Company’s common stock, (ii) stock appreciation rights entitling the recipient to receive cash or shares of our common stock and (iii) restricted shares of our common stock to our officers and other employees, outside directors and consultants, upon such terms, including exercise price and conditions and vesting schedule, as may be determined by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors. The plan authorizes the granting of awards of up to a maximum of 15,000,000 shares of the Company’s common sto ck.

Purchase of EMC Packaging, Inc.

In October 2004, the Company purchased all of the issued and outstanding capital stock (the “EMC Shares”) of EMC Packaging, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“EMC”), from the holders of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of EMC (the “EMC Stockholders”). On the effective date of the purchase of the EMC Shares, EMC became the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary. In consideration for their EMC Shares, the EMC Stockholders received an aggregate of 2,296,800 shares of the Company’s common stock.


Departure of Independent Auditors and Retention of New Independent Auditors

The independent auditors of Ciro International, Inc., Lazar Levine and Felix LLP, predecessor auditor of the legal acquirer, for accounting purposes, in a reverse merger, resigned as the independent auditors of Ciro International, Inc. effective December 7, 2004 because such auditors had no dealings with the Company since July 24, 2003. In October 2003, the Company filed a Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under Rule 12g-4(a)(1)(i) of Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ( the “Exchange Act”), electing to become a non-reporting company on the basis that its common stock was held by fewer than 300 persons. On February 28, 2003, the board of directors of Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc., a Texas corporation (“ABC Texas”), approved the retention of Fitts, Roberts & Co., P.C to audit the financial statements of ABC Texas for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. On June 3, 2004, the board of directors of ABC Texas again approved the retention of Fitts, Roberts & Co., P.C. to audit the financial statements of ABC Texas for the year ended December 31, 2003. On December 29, 2004, Fitts, Roberts & Co., P.C. informed the Company that it would not stand for reelection as the Company’s independent auditors. The Company received certain observations from Fitts, Roberts & Co., P.C., including, but not limited to, the following: (i) the Company lac ks specific policies and a procedure guide; (ii) the separation of duties to support internal controls is lacking; (iii) there is poor documentation and a lack of trained accounting staff; and (iv) the Company has a lack of reconciliation of accounts and has a number of audit adjusting journal entries. On December 9, 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the retention of Beckstead and Watts, LLP as the Company’s independent auditors going forward. There have been no disagreements with any of the Company’s independent auditors to the knowledge of the Company’s Board of Directors.


2004 Private Placement

In September 2004, the Company offered and sold an aggregate of 6,179,300 shares of its common stock to several accredited investors for between $0.05 and $0.20 per share. The purchasers in this private placement represented his or her intention to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view toward distribution. These securities were not sold through an underwriter and there were no underwriting discounts or commissions involved. These sales and purchases in the private placement were exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the regulations promulgated thereunder, on the basis that the private placement did not involve a public offering.

Item 1. Financial Statements.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
The Company believes that the following critical accounting policies reflect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements:
 

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue principally from contract services performed in the area of protein identification as the services are completed. Payments by customers for services not yet performed are classified as deferred revenue. Revenue recognition, in part, depends on management’s assessment of when services are deemed completed.

Income Tax

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not. Management has determined as of December 31, 2003 that it is not probable that the Company will realize a future tax benefit from its deferred tax assets.


Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, the Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25 and related interpretations in accounting for stock issued to its employees and consultants. Management exercises judgment in its determination of when significant non-cash stock transactions have occurred.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations.

Note Regarding Ciro and ABC Texas

The Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition for the six months ended June 30, 2003 treats the assets of Ciro as existing prior to the Merger between Ciro Acquisition Corp. and ABC Texas, consummated pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on their own, as immaterial, as illustrated in the Company’s unaudited financial statements contained herein. Under the Merger Agreement, Ciro Acquisition Corp. merged with and into ABC Texas in a tax free exchange of shares at which time ABC Texas became a wholly owned subsidiary of Ciro. Prior June 12, 2003, the effective date of the Merger, Ciro was in essence a “shell” company since, as
 
4

 
of December 31, 2002, all licenses issued by the Company expired. Following the effectiveness of the Merger, the Company became a holding company for ABC Texas and all of the Company’s assets consisted of the assets of ABC Texas. As a result, comparisons of the six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 are solely of ABC Texas.


Results of Operations

The Company had net revenues of $55,240 and $191,794, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to net revenues of $61,807 and $73,857 for the same periods in the year ended December 31, 2002.  The Company had no royalty revenues for either the quarter or the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to royalty revenues of $2,007 and $6,213, respectively, for the same periods of 2002. As all licenses expired as of December 31, 2002, no royalty income has been generated for the quarter and the six months ended June 30, 2003.

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") were $27,469 for the second quarter of 2003 and $34,140 for the six month period ended June 30, 2003, compared to $24,475 and $35,202, respectively, for the same periods of 2002. Total expenses were $402,961 for the three month period ended June 30, 2003 and $687,384 for the six month period ended June 30, 2003, compared to $219,788 and $435,622 for the same periods of 2002. This difference is attributable to increases in salaries and contract labor expenses.

The Company had net losses of $398,041 for the second quarter of 2003 and net losses of $593,535 for the six month period ended June 30, 2003, compared to losses of $207,083 in the same quarter of 2002 and losses of $450,444 for the six month period ended June 30, 2002. This change was due to the items discussed above.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had a working capital deficit of $(1,301,740) for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This compares to a working capital deficit of $(1,177,484) at the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002. The majority of the increase deficit was increased accrued interest expense. The accrual was $206,752 at June 30, 2003 compared to $158,466 at December 31, 2002.

Net cash (used) in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $(335,060) compared to net cash used in operations in the same period in 2002 of $(204,149). The Company obtained funds to operate in the six months ended June 30, 2003 from the issuance of stock in the amount of $396,000.

The terms "believe", "anticipate", "intend", "goal", "expect" and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements represent the Company's current expectations or beliefs concerning future events.

introduction and customer acceptance of new products, the impact of competition and price erosion, as well as supply and manufacturing constraints and other risks and uncertainties. The foregoing list should not be construed as exhaustive, and the Company disclaims any obligation to subsequently revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements, or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

Item 3. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures    

The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) as of the end of the period being reported (the "Evaluation Date"), have concluded that as of the Evaluation Date, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms. Such officers reached this conclusion because the Company’s records, prior to the recent change in management, had not been maintained and processed to meet both financial reporting and other C ommission disclosure needs and requirements. Management has reviewed the recommendations set forth in a letter from the Company’s auditors and have set March 30, 2005 as a deadline to bring the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures in line with such recommendations. The Company’s independent auditors have made a number of recommendations including, but not limited to, the following: (i) the Company should improve accounting controls through the formalization of accounting practices through promulgation of accounting policies and procedures, and (ii) additional recommendations related to improving internal controls through the separation of duties within the accounting function. Management has hired outside consultants to help with this process.

Changes in Internal Controls

No significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls following the date of evaluation came to management's attention.


PART II

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

As of June 30, 2003, the Company was neither a party nor were any of its properties subject to any legal proceedings.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

The following sets forth information relating to all sales of our common stock during the quarter ended June 30, 2003, which sales were not registered under the Securities Act.

On May 5, 2003, the Company and GESJ, Inc. (“GESJ”), a Texas corporation, owned by four officers of the Company, entered into an agreement and plan of merger in which GESJ merged into the Company in a tax-free exchange of shares. The Company exchanged 1,903,000 shares of its common stock for all the issued and outstanding shares of GESJ. These shares issued by the Company were subsequently cancelled in 2004. The Company continued as the surviving entity. The purpose of the merger was to acquire the management team of GESJ. GESJ had no assets or liabilities as of the merger date. The Company has not recorded the transaction as compensation to the officers involved due to the cancellation of the shares.

As disclosed above in “Recent Developments”, in connection with the Merger, effective on June 12, 2003, the stockholders of ABC Texas received an aggregate of 3,619,554 shares of the Company (formerly, Ciro International, Inc.) on a one-for-one basis in exchange for their shares in ABC Texas. As a result of the Merger, the stockholders of ABC Texas, at the effective time, held approximately 65% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock and the Company owns 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of ABC Texas. These sales and purchases of the Company’s common stock were exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2), on the basis that the transaction did not involve a public offering.

Each of the purchasers of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the Merger listed above represented his or her intention to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view toward distribution. None of the securities were sold through an underwriter and accordingly, there were no underwriting discounts or commissions involved.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2003, the Company sold no shares of its common stock in private placements.

Other than the securities mentioned above, the Company did not issue or sell any securities during the quarter ended June 30, 2003.


Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

None.

Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

Note 1 - Basis of presentation

Effective April, 2003, the Company elected to file as a non-reporting entity in accordance with Rule 12g-4 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company has currently elected to reinstate as a filing entity and, as such, reference to year-end financial statements should be referred to the Company’s Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.

The condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. It is recommended that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2003 Form 10-KSB.
 
The Company amended its Articles of Incorporation effective December 9, 2004 to change its name from “Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc.” to “Industrial Enterprises of America, Inc.”

Results of operations for the interim periods are not indicative of annual results.

Note 2 - Financial results, liquidity and basis of presentation

In order to continue, the Company will be required to obtain additional funding from outside sources, or sell additional assets to meet its debt service obligations. Management is in the process of seeking additional financing. Without continued forbearance of the Company’s creditors, additional financing, or the sale of assets, the Company would be unable to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance that the Company can obtain sufficient additional financing or raise adequate funds through the sale of its assets to service its debt obligations. The Company’s financial statements are presented on the basis of a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.

Note 3 - Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share (EPS) excludes dilution and is determined by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if options and other contracts to issue shares of common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. There are no warrants or options to issue additional shares as of June 30, 2003, or 2002. Due to net losses, the effect of the conversion of any potentially dilutive securities would be anti-dilutive.

Note 3 - Earnings per share (continued)

The following table reflects the effect on EPS of the reverse split approved on March 17, 2003 by the Board of Directors whereby holders of the Company’s common stock on the effective date received one new share of common stock for every 3.22 shares owned prior to the split. The reverse stock split became effective June 10, 2003, and has been applied retroactively to the financial statements as of December 31, 2002.

Note 8 - Mergers and acquisitions

On May 5, 2003, the Company and GESJ, Inc. (“GESJ”), a Texas corporation, owned by four officers of the Company, entered into an agreement and plan of merger in which GESJ merged into the Company in a tax-free exchange of shares. 1,903,000 shares of common stock of the Company were exchanged for all the issued and outstanding shares of GESJ. The Company continued as the surviving entity. The purpose of the merger was to acquire the management team of GESJ. GESJ had no assets or liabilities as of the merger date. The Company has recorded the transaction as stock issued for compensation to the officers involved.

On June 12, 2003, the Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc., a Texas corporation, merged with a wholly owned subsidiary of Ciro International, Inc. (“Ciro”),a Nevada corporation, resulting in the Texas corporation being the surviving entity. The common stock of the Texas corporation was then exchanged for one share of common stock in Ciro and Ciro changed it name from Ciro International, Inc. to Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc. This transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition with Ciro, a public shell company. For accounting purposes, the combination was treated as an issuance of shares for cash by the Company and has not been considered a business combination.


Note 9- Subsequent events

On December 31, 2003, the Company entered into an agreement whereby 1,000,000 shares of common stock would be sold to two investors along with warrants for an additional 600,000 shares. These shares were subsequently issued January 6, 2004 when payment of $100,000 was received by the Company.

(Power 3), a Nevada corporation, for 15,000,000 restricted shares of Power 3 common stock, plus employment of certain of the Company’s employees, and assumption of certain liabilities of the Company. Also, in consideration of Stephen B. Rash, Chairman and CEO, and Ira L. Goldknopf, Ph.D., Chief Science Officer, resigning their respective offices with the Company and accepting similar positions with Power 3, Power 3 designated 3,000,000 shares of its Series B Convertible Preferred Stock that, voting as a class, represents a majority of the voting interest of Power 3. 1,500,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of Power 3 were issued each to Stephen B. Rash, and Ira L. Goldknopf, Ph.D. In the ev ent either holder of shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock ceases to be an officer, director or employee of Power 3, their preferred shares automatically convert to common shares at a ratio of one common share for each preferred share. In addition, 13,250,000 shares of common stock were issued each to Stephen B. Rash and Ira L. Goldknopf, Ph.D. in consideration of their executing an employment agreement with Power 3.

In July 2004, the sole director of the Company, Helen Park, resigned and Crawford Shaw was appointed as sole director, president and chief executive officer. In August 2004, John Mazzuto and Michael Collyer were added as directors.

In August 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the adoption of the 2004 Stock Option Plan. 15,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company were reserved as incentives to certain employees, outside directors and consultants in the form of stock options of the Company.
