***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. (t he 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, 2004, 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.





**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 agreed 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, Chief 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.




















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 stock.





**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 lacks 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 1,000,000 shares of its common stock to several accredited investors for $0.05 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 nine months ended September 30, 2004 treats the assets of Ciro International Inc. (the Companys predecessor (Ciro), as existing prior to the merger (the Merger) between Ciro Acquisition Corp., a Texas corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Ciro formed for purposes of the Merger (Ciro Acquisition), and ABC Texas, consummated pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement) among Ciro, Ciro Acquisition (which was inappropriately identified in the Merger Agreement as Advanced Bio/Chem Acquisition Corp. and ABC Texas, on their own, as immaterial, as illustrated in the Companys unaudited financial statements contained herein. Under the Merger Agreement, Ciro Acquisition 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 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 three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 are solely of ABC Texas.

Effective May 18, 2004, the purchase agreement was finalized and the assets and certain liabilities were acquired by Power 3 for 15,000,000 shares of common stock of Power 3. (See financials footnote Note 7 - Mergers and Acquisitions for further details.)





The operating results of this discontinued operation for the period ended May 17, 2004, consisted of the following:

As a result of this transaction, the Company recorded a net gain of $9,320,885 net of provision for income taxes of $2,034,114 for the nine months ending September 30, 2004. In addition the Company has reflected its investment in the 15,000,000 Power 3 restricted shares at $11,250,000 or $0.75 per share as at May 17, 2004.





Loss from operations (including discontinued) for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $(493,386) compared to a loss of $(1,835,430) in the same period in 2003. The decrease is attributed to decreased salaries and contract labor.





Loss from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2004 was $(117,091) compared to a loss of $(1,241,895) in the same period in 2003. The decrease being attributed to decreased expenses since the sale of operations.





Included in the three and nine months amounts in 2003 was a current period expense of $660,000 for the stock grant of 825,000 shares (at $0.80 per share) to the former CEO of the Company. In addition, an additional 200,000 shares (at $0.80 per share) was promised under an option agreement entered into on September 5, 2003 but not yet executed; nor are they anticipated to be executed since the officer is no longer employed by the Company.





Net loss from continuing operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 amounted to $(117,091) and $(220,502), respectively, representing continuing selling, general and administrative expenses ($66,628) and ($121,511), respectively associated with the sale; and, interest expense ($50,463) and ($98,991), respectively on continuing debt obligations.





Net (loss) income for the three and six months ended September 30, 2004 was $(113,566) and $8,827,499. The nine-month amount includes the net gain on the sale of discontinued operations discussed above.





Net (loss) income per share basic and diluted for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $(0.01) and $0.56 per share, respectively, compared to $(0.15) and $(0.25) in the same respective periods in 2003. The earnings per share include the gain on the sale of discontinued operations of $0.59 nine months ended September 30, 2004.





*Liquidity and Capital Resources*





The Company had a working capital deficit of $(3,517,207) as at September 30, 2004. This compares to a working capital deficit of $(1,977,216) at the fiscal year end, December 31, 2003. The majority of the increase in the deficit is attributed to the asset sale described above





Net cash provided by operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 was a negative $(551,966) compared to a negative cash flow in the same period in 2003 of $(606,990).





The Company obtained funds to operate in the nine months ended September 30,2004 from the issuance of common stock in the amount of $405,000 and increased notes payable to shareholders and related parties of $200,000.





CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995





It should be noted that in this Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), and Section 21E of the Exchange Act and are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. 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. The matters covered by these statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements, including the Company's dependence on weather-related factors, 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.

**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 Commission 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 September 30, 2004, 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 September 30, 2004, which sales were not registered under the Securities Act.

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 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, on the basis that the private placement did not involve a public offering.

**Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc.**
**Notes to Interim Financial Statements**


**Note 1 - Basis of presentation**





The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and its total liabilities exceed its total assets. This raises substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.





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.





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





**Note 2 - Earnings per share**





Basic earnings per share (EPS) includes 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 warrants to issue an additional 600,000 shares as of September 30, 2004, and no warrants or options as of September 30, 2003. None of the warrants have been exercised as of September 30, 2004.





**Note 3 - Stock based compensation**





As permitted under generally accepted accounting principles, stock-based awards granted to employees are accounted for following APB 25. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized compensation expense for its stock-based awards to employees. Outlined below are pro forma results had compensation costs for the Companys stock-based compensation plans been determined based on the fair value approach of SFAS 123.
