Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

NOTE 1.
Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying financial statements of ChromaDex Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries, ChromaDex, Inc. and
ChromaDex Analytics, Inc. (the Company) include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals, that in the opinion of the management of the Company are necessary for a fair presentation of our financial
position as of April 4, 2009 and results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended April 4, 2009 and March 29, 2008. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys
audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended January 3, 2009 appearing in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on April 3, 2009. Operating results for the three months ended
April 4, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full year ending on January 2, 2010. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reports amounts
of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting

Nature of business: The Company creates and supplies botanical reference standards along with related phytochemical products and
services. The Companys main priority is to create industry-accepted information, and to provide products and services to every layer of the functional food, pharmaceutical, personal care and dietary supplement markets. The Company provides
these services at various terms with payment terms of primarily net 30 days.

Basis of presentation: The financial statements and accompanying notes
have been prepared on a consolidated basis and reflect the consolidated financial position of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated from these financial statements.
The Companys fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to December 31 and the Companys normal fiscal quarters end on the Saturday 13 weeks after the last fiscal year end or fiscal quarter end. The fiscal year for 2008 included 53
weeks instead of the normal 52 weeks, and consequently the fourth fiscal quarter of the fiscal year for 2008 included 14 weeks instead of the normal 13 weeks. The inclusion of an extra week occurs every fifth or sixth fiscal year due to the
Companys floating year-end date. The fiscal year for 2009 includes 52 weeks, and consequently the fiscal quarters for the fiscal year for 2009 each include 13 weeks.

Earnings per share: Potentially dilutive common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of common stock options and warrants for all periods. For all periods ended
April 4, 2009 and March 29, 2008, the basic and diluted shares reported are equal as the common share equivalents are anti-dilutive due to the net losses for each period. Below is a tabulation of the potentially dilutive securities for the
periods ended April 4, 2009 and March 29, 2008.

NOTE 5. Managements Plans for Continuing Operations

The Company has incurred a net loss of $323,842 for the three month period ended April 4, 2009 and a net loss of $122,906 for the three month period ended
March 29, 2008. The loss for the three month period ended April 4, 2009 reflects costs related to reporting, legal, accounting and compliance as a public reporting entity, and the Company expects to incur significant future costs
associated with being a public reporting entity. In addition management has invested heavily in additional personnel and selling expenses to implement its business plan. This has resulted in higher direct labor, indirect overhead, selling, and
advertising expenses versus prior years. Management has also implemented additional strategic operational structure changes, which it believes will allow the Company to achieve profitability with future growth without incurring significant
additional overhead costs. Managements anticipation of future growth is largely related to the Food and Drug Administrations (FDAs) upcoming guideline releases in the dietary supplement industry and the markets trend towards
green chemistry in the food and cosmetic sector. The Company has implemented a comprehensive marketing plan design targeted on leveraging its capabilities concurrent with the FDAs releases. The Company has also expanded it marketing plan to
target the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and sectors to support the reference standards, analytical services and discovery libraries product lines.

The Company believes the capital raised during the year ended January 3, 2009, will be sufficient to implement its
current business plan through the next ten months, however, the Company may determine that it needs additional financing to implement its business plan, and there can be no assurance that it will be available on terms favorable to it or at all. If
adequate financing is not available, the Company may have to delay, postpone or terminate product and service expansion and curtail general and administrative operations in order to maintain sufficient operating capital throughout 2009. The
inability to raise additional financing may have a material adverse effect on the Company.



|ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GENERAL

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the Form 10-Q) contains
forward-looking statements, as defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements reflect the Companys current expectations of the future results of its operations, performance and
achievements. Forward-looking statements are covered under the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company has tried, wherever possible, to identify these statements by using words such as
anticipates, believes, estimates, expects, plans, intends and similar expressions. These statements reflect managements current beliefs and are based on information now
available to it. Accordingly, these statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and contingencies that could cause the Companys actual results, performance or achievements in 2009 and beyond to differ materially from those expressed
in, or implied by, such statements. These risks, uncertainties, factors and other risks are set forth under Item 1A Risk Factors in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on April 3, 2009 and in
future reports the Company files with the Commission. Readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Except as required by federal securities laws, the Company undertakes no
obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements to reflect new events or uncertainties.

You should read the
following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of ChromaDex together with the financial statements and the related notes presented in this report.

Overview

ChromaDex Corporation and its subsidiaries
(collectively, ChromaDex, or the Company) supply phytochemical reference standards and reference materials, related contract services, and products for the dietary supplement, nutraceutical, food and beverage, functional
food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic markets. ChromaDexs core business strategy is to use the intellectual property harnessed by its expertise in the area of natural products and in the creation of reference materials to the industry as the basis
for providing new and alternative, green, mass marketable products to its customers. The Companys strategy is to license its intellectual property (IP) to companies who will commercialize it. The Company anticipates
that the net result will be a long term flow of intellectual property milestone and royalty payments for the Company.

The discussion and
analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on the ChromaDex financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements
requires making 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, as well as the reported revenues, if any, and
expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate such estimates and judgments, including those described in greater detail below. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are
reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under
different assumptions or conditions.

##### Table of Contents

We believe that our current cash, cash equivalents and cash generated from operations will be sufficient
to meet our projected operating plans for at least the next ten months. We may, however, seek additional capital in the next ten months in order to further enable our long term strategic plans. This additional capital may come from public and
private stock or debt offerings, borrowings under lines of credit or other sources if we determine that we need additional financing to implement our business plan. These additional funds may not be available on favorable terms, or at all.
Furthermore, if we issue equity or debt securities to raise additional funds, our existing shareholders may experience dilution and the new equity or debt securities we issue may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our
existing shareholders. In addition, if we raise additional funds through collaboration, licensing or other similar arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish valuable rights to our products or proprietary technologies, or grant licenses on
terms that are not favorable to us. If we cannot raise funds on acceptable terms, we may not be able to develop or enhance our products, obtain the required regulatory clearances or approvals, execute our business plan, take advantage of future
opportunities, or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated customer requirements. Any of these events could adversely affect our ability to achieve our development and commercialization goals, which could have a material and adverse effect
on our business, results of operations and financial condition. If we are unable to establish small to medium scale production capabilities through our own plant or though a collaboration we may be unable to fulfill our customers requirements.
This may cause a loss of future revenue streams as well as require us to look for third party vendors to provide these services. These vendors may not be available, or charge fees that prevent us from pricing competitively within our markets.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is currently in the process of starting to regulate the dietary supplement market under
the new Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs). The GMPs call for a three-year phase-in period and as of June, 2008, large manufacturers are held accountable under these new regulations. In June, 2009, medium manufacturers will be held
accountable, followed by small manufacturers in June, 2010. At this time, it is unknown to what extent the FDA will enforce the regulations and how they will be interpreted upon enforcement. These uncertainties may have a material impact on the
results of operations for ChromaDex as lack of enforcement or an interpretation of the regulations that lessens the burden of compliance for the dietary supplement marketplace may cause a reduced demand for ChromaDexs products and services.

Results of Operations

ChromaDex
generated net sales of $1,447,127 for the three month period ended April 4, 2009 and $1,059,716 for the three month period ended March 29, 2008. ChromaDex incurred a net loss of $323,842 for the three month period ended April 4, 2009
and had net loss of $122,906 for the three month period ended March 29, 2008. This equated to a $0.01 loss per basic and diluted share for the three month period ended April 4, 2009 versus a nominal amount per basic and diluted share for
the three month period ended March 29, 2008.

Over the next ten months, we plan to expand our service capacity through hiring and to
implement accreditation and certification programs related to quality initiatives if our capital resources are sufficient. In addition, we plan to expand our chemical library program and to either establish a GMP compliant pilot plant to support
small to medium scale production of target compounds or partner through a collaboration with a company that has these capabilities.

Net Sales

Net Sales consist of Gross sales less returns, discounts and freight costs. Net sales increased by 37% to $1,447,127 for the
three month period ended April 4, 2009 as compared to $1,059,716 for the three month period ended March 29, 2008. This increase was due to our additional service offerings and increased demand for our existing products and services.

Costs of Sales

Costs of Sales
include raw materials, labor, overhead, and delivery costs. Cost of sales for the three month period ended April 4, 2009 was $979,054 versus $660,272 for the three month period ended March 29, 2008. As a percentage of net sales, this
represented a 5% increase for the three month period ended April 4, 2009 compared with the three month period ended March 29, 2008. This percentage increase in cost of sales is a result of fixed labor and overhead costs that make up the
majority of our expenses as well as sales of high volume products which have higher raw materials costs associated with them.

##### Table of Contents

Gross Profit

Gross profit is net sales less the cost of sales and is affected by a number of factors including product mix, competitive pricing and costs of products and services. Our gross profit increased 17% to $468,073 for the three month
period ended April 4, 2009 from $399,444 for the three month period ended March 29, 2008. The increased sales contributed to this increase in gross profit.

Operating ExpensesSales and Marketing

Sales and Marketing Expenses consist of salaries,
commissions to employees and advertising and marketing. Sales and marketing expenses for the three month period ended April 4, 2009 was $221,622 as compared to $171,984 for the three month period ended March 29, 2008. This increase was
primarily due to increased advertising and marketing across different customer sectors, as well as wages and commission associated with the expansion of our sales staff.

Operating ExpensesGeneral and Administrative

General and Administrative Expenses consist of
research and development, general company administration, IT, accounting and executive management. General and administrative expenses for the three month period ended April 4, 2009 were $566,643 as compared to $343,154 for the three month
period ended March 29, 2008. This increase was primarily due to increases in insurance and ongoing additional costs of legal, accounting, salaries, and consulting related to current and future Securities Exchange Act of 1934 compliance as a
result of being a public company.

Non-operating ExpensesInterest Expense

Interest expense consists of interest on capital leases. Interest expense for the three month period ended April 4, 2009 was $5,245 compared
to $7,616 for the three month period ended March 29, 2008.

Non-operating ExpensesInterest Income

Interest income consists of interest earned on money market accounts. Interest income for the three month period ended April 4, 2009, was
$1,595 as compared to $404 for the three month period ended March 29, 2008. For the three month period ended April 4, 2009, the interest income was earned primarily on cash in money market accounts as compared to the interest income for
the three month period ended March 29, 2008, which was earned as the result of interest that was forgiven upon the negotiated payback of a long term debt to a third party.

Depreciation and Amortization

For the three month period ended April 4, 2009, we recorded
approximately $67,926 in depreciation. We depreciate our assets on a straight-line basis, based on the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. We amortize intangible assets using a straight-line method over 10 years. In the three month
period ended April 4, 2009, we recorded an amortization for intangible assets of approximately $30,958. We test intangible assets for impairment on the last day of the fiscal year annually and based on events or changes in circumstances as they
occur.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since inception and through April 4, 2009, we have incurred aggregate losses of $7.5 million. These losses are primarily due to overhead costs and general and administrative expenses associated with the development and expansion of our
operations. These operations have been financed through capital contributions and the issuance of common stock.

##### Table of Contents

Net cash used in operating activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended April 4, 2009 and March 29, 2008 were $251,000 and $363,000, respectively. The
decrease in net cash used in operating activities mainly reflects an increase in cash provided by accounts payable and accrued expenses due to the timing of payments related to our legal and other professional services, partially offset by an
increase in inventory as well as the net loss adjusted for non-cash items.

We expect that our operating cash flows may fluctuate
significantly in future periods as a result of fluctuations in our operating results, shipment timetables, accounts receivable collections, inventory management, and the timing of our payments among other factors.

Net cash used in investing activities

Net cash used
in investing activities was $11,000 for the three months ended April 4, 2009, compared to $191,000 for the three months ended March 29, 2008. The decrease in cash used in investing activities mainly reflects the timing of purchases of
equipment for our service business.

Net cash provided by financing activities

Net cash used by financing activities was $20,000 for the three months ended April 4, 2009, compared to $1.9 million provided for the three months
ended March 29, 2008. The net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 29, 2008, mainly consisted of net proceeds from a private placement.

Dividend policy

We have not declared or paid any dividends on our common stock. We presently intend
to retain earnings for use in our operations and to finance our business. Any change in our dividend policy is within the discretion of our board of directors and will depend, among other things, on our earnings, debt service and capital
requirements, restrictions in financing agreements, if any, business conditions, legal restrictions and other factors that our board of directors deems relevant.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the three months ended April 4, 2009, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements
other than ordinary operating leases as disclosed in the Financial Statements and Supplementary Data section of the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on April 3, 2009.
