PART I

Item 1. Description of Business.

The Company operates as a holding company with three wholly owned subsidiaries, EMC Packaging, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“EMC”), Unifide and Todays. EMC’s business consists of converting hydrofluorocarbon gases (“HFC”) R134a and R152a into branded private label refrigerant and propellant products. Unifide is a leading marketer and seller of automotive chemicals and additives and Todays manufactures and packages the products sold by Unifide. A more detailed description of the business of each of the Company’s three wholly owned subsidiaries is provided below under “Business of the Issuer”.

Background

The Company was originally incorporated in the State of Florida on June 14, 1990 as Mid-Way Medical Diagnostic Center, Inc. ("Mid-Way (Florida)"). Mid-Way (Florida) was initially engaged in the business of seeking to establish and operate medical and diagnostic centers. During 1991, Mid-Way (Florida) abandoned its efforts to engage in such business.

In December 1997, Mid-Way (Florida) effected a reorganization by merging Mid-Way Acquisition Corp. (the “Merger Sub”), a wholly owned Nevada corporation created by Mid-Way (Florida) solely for the purpose of merging with Ciro Jewelry, Inc. ("Ciro Jewelry (Delaware)"), a Delaware corporation. By virtue of the merger, all of the assets, liabilities, and business of Ciro Jewelry (Delaware) became the assets, liabilities, and business of the Merger Sub. As a result of the merger, the Merger Sub changed its name to Ciro Jewelry, Inc. ("Ciro Jewelry"); the then-current sole officer and director resigned as the sole officer and director of both the Company and Ciro Jewelry and simultaneously appointed Murray Wilson as the sole director of each entity.

In December 1997, Mid-Way (Florida) changed its name to Ciro International, Inc. ("Ciro"); at the same time, Ciro merged with Mid-Way Medical and Diagnostic Center, Inc., a Nevada corporation, which was established solely for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Company from the State of Florida to the State of Nevada.
 
On April 21, 2003, Ciro and Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc., a Texas corporation (“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 June 12, 2003, 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 owned 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.

2


The Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name from “Ciro International, Inc.” to “Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc.” by filing a Certificate of Amendment on June 20, 2003 with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. Additionally, subsequent to December 31, 2003, effective as of December 9, 2004, 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.

Until June 2003, the Company existed primarily as a holding company, and accordingly, the operations of the Company were those of its former operating subsidiary, Ciro Jewelry. Until late 2002, the Company's main source of income derived from the licensing of the “Ciro” name. Effective June 9, 2003, the Company sold all of the issued and outstanding common stock of its wholly owned subsidiary, Ciro Jewelry, to Merchant’s T&F, Inc. (“MT&F”), a company owned by Mr. Wilson, the majority stockholder of the Company at the time of such sale (the “Ciro Stock Sale”). The sale price for the Ciro Stock Sale was $4,000, which was equivalent to the amount owed by the Company to MT&F for management fees. Ciro Jewelry owns a trademark for the “Ciro” jewelry name in certain countries. Until December 31, 2002, the Company licensed this trademark and received royalties from such licenses. Following December 2002, Ciro Jewelry became a "shell" corporation with no defined business purpose and began the process of searching for a new line of business or a merger candidate.

Even before the Ciro Stock Sale, the Company did not own or hold leases to any stores. All individual licensees of the “Ciro” trademark were responsible for owning their own stores as well as securing their own merchandise. The Company did not manufacture or distribute the products sold under the “Ciro” name, nor did it secure the source or availability of materials used to manufacture the “Ciro” products. These responsibilities were left up to the individual licensees. As such, the Company had no research and development costs.

Following the Ciro Stock Sale and through December 31, 2003, the Company, through ABC Texas (d/b/a ProteEx), the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, operated as a biotechnology company utilizing protein identification for cancer discovery and applying proteomics to the medical diagnostic market, principally hospitals and other medical facilities. The Company’s products were in the form of diagnostic tests. Principal national markets included diagnostics and drug discovery and development in the United States and Canada.

In May 2004, the Company, entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Power3 Agreement”), among the Company, Power3 Medical Products, Inc., a New York corporation ("Power3"), and Steven B. Rash and Ira Goldknopf (collectively, the "Shareholders"). According to the Company’s records, the sale to Power3 (the “Power3 Sale”) was approved by the Company’s shareholders by proxy. As provided in the Power3 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 “Power3 Shares”) and Power3’s assumption of, or the Shareholders’ payment of, all of the Company’s liabilities. The assets disposed of by the Company included all tangible personal property, intellectual property, rights in contracts that the Company was 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 Power3 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. Following the Power3 Sale, the Company was once again a shell entity with no defined business

purpose. On August 8, 2005 the Company filed suit against Power3 and the Shareholders with respect to the matters discussed in this paragraph.

Note that on May 12, 2005, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose that the Company’s management is reviewing the Power3 Sale. Under the Power3 Agreement, Power3 agreed to purchase all of the assets and assume all of the liabilities (with the exception of those specifically excluded) of the Company. Additionally, Section 4.5 of the Power3 Agreement provided that the Shareholders would repay the Company’s indebtedness within five (5) business days of the closing date of the Power3 Sale. However, following such sale, $2.8 million in liabilities remained on the books of the Company (the “Liabilities”). Until recently, the Company and Power3 had been negotiating an agreement with respect to the settlement of any and all claims between the Company, Power3 and each of the companies’ principals stemming from the Power3 Sale. However, the Company has terminated settlement discussions. The Company disclosed that it would take action to enforce any rights and remedies it may have with respect to the Power3 Sale and the Liabilities. On August 8, 2005 the Company filed suit against Power3 and the Shareholders with respect to the matters discussed in this paragraph.

Power3 contends that the terms of the Power3 Agreement are not clear and are therefore subject to different interpretations. The Company’s management notes Mr. Rash owned approximately 3.92% of the Company’s common stock at the time of the Power3 Sale and Mr. Goldknopf owned approximately 8.23% of the Company’s common stock, resulting in their indirect beneficial ownership at the time of the transaction of an aggregate of approximately 1,822,500 shares. The Company has since informed the Shareholders that management has determined to suspend the shares of the Company’s common stock owned by the Shareholders while it investigates whether these parties breached the fiduciary duties that may have been owed by each of them to the Company, among other matters. On August 8, 2005 the Company filed suit against Power3 and the Shareholders with respect to the matters discussed in this paragraph.

In connection with this dispute, the Company cancelled the debt of certain former officers, directors and shareholders totaling $699,453 during the quarter ended March 31, 2005 based on a determination that such debt should have been either assumed by Power3 or paid by the shareholder upon consummation of the Power3 Sale.  While the Company believes that it has a valid basis for such cancellation, there can be no assurance that the cancellation of the Liabilities will not be disputed. This cancelled debt was comprised of $388,115 of notes payable; $123,382 of accrued interest; $92,663 of credit card debt; and $92,293 of accounts payable to former shareholders. On August 8, 2005 the Company filed suit against Power3 and the Shareholders with respect to the matters discussed in this paragraph.

Business of the Issuer

The Company now operates as a holding company with three wholly owned subsidiaries, EMC, Unifide and Todays.

As previously disclosed, in October 2004, the Company purchased all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of EMC (the “EMC Shares”) from the holders of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of EMC. On the effective date of the purchase of the EMC Shares, EMC became the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary. EMC markets and sells the products that
 
4

 
had been offered by EMC prior to the purchase of the EMC Shares. EMC supplies refrigerant (in the form of converted HFC R134a and R152a) in units used by ultimate end users. EMC’s dusters are used in the computer and electronics industries, as well as the photographic market, as an aerosol cleaner. EMC’s products are also used in forensic medicine to freeze medical specimens, and EMC packages the only Coast Guard approved boat horns. All of these products use a refrigerant packaged and marketed by EMC.

EMC’s products were sold, and will continue to be sold, nationally. EMC’s clients encompass a variety of industries, including the automotive, electronic (such as computer manufacturers) and photographic industries. Through EMC, the Company offers the same products in the same areas as offered by EMC prior to the purchase. EMC has been in the business of packaging, marketing and selling refrigerants since 1974; however, this is a new area of business for the Company. Although EMC will continue to use the property, plant, equipment, management and employees of EMC existing prior to the purchase, there are no guarantees that the Company will succeed in establishing a profitable line of business.

In December 2004, the Company’s Board approved the change in the Company’s fiscal year end from December 31 to June 30. At that time, the Company, as the parent of EMC, was a holding company of one operating subsidiary. The fiscal year end of EMC is June 30; therefore, in order to more closely align its operations and internal controls with that of its wholly owned subsidiary, the Board of Directors approved the change in the Company’s fiscal year end.

Effective as of July 17, 2005, the Company acquired one hundred percent (100%) ownership of (i) Unifide, a leading marketer and seller of automotive chemicals and additives and (ii) Todays, a company that manufactures and packages the products sold by Unifide. On the effective date of the purchase, each of Unifide and Todays became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Unifide has been in operation for over six years and Todays has been in operation for approximately three years. Unifide markets specialty automotive products under proprietary trade names such as TMP (Taylor Made Products), Nu-Energy and Tradco/Phoenix, as well as private labels. Todays manufactures and packages the products to be sold by Unifide. The acquisition of Unifide and Todays brings an experienced marketing and sales force to the Company’s core packaging business and is expected to provide cross-selling opportunities between the Company's proprietary brands.

Through Unifide and Todays, the Company offers the same products in the same areas as offered by Unifide and Todays prior to the 2005 purchase. Although Unifide and Todays will continue to use the property, plant, equipment, management and employees of Unifide existing prior to the purchase, the Company cannot guarantee that it will be successful in these businesses.


None of the products of EMC, Unifide or Todays are sold to ultimate end users. Rather, the Company’s customers are retail stores and wholesalers of products. Following production, all products are shipped to clients by contracted third party shippers. ILNP includes the costs associated with shipping into its product pricing.

The raw materials used by each of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries are widely available. However, ILNP’s continued business is reliant on suppliers of raw materials. The Company continually seeks out less expensive suppliers of raw materials. The Company’s continued
 
5

 
operations rely on its ability to continue to secure competitive suppliers of raw materials.

Routine government approval for the businesses of each of EMC, Unifide and Todays is required, and has been received by each of the companies.

Products; Trademarks, Licenses

None.

Competition

EMC, Unifide and Todays operate in highly competitive and fragmented business segments, and none is dominant within its segment. EMC is primarily in the contract packaging business. It is able to remain competitive through its efficient production. EMC’s continued competitiveness will rely on its ability to price its services at a competitive level. EMC has no brand distinction between its products and its competitor’s products.  

Unifide competes in its market through competitive pricing and effective marketing and sales. Unifide does not believe that it has any significant advantage due to its brand name recognition. Rather Unifide's sales staff is able to maintain its position in the market through appropriate pricing of its products.

Government Regulations

The Company believes it is in material compliance with all relevant federal, state, and local environmental regulations, and does not expect to incur any significant costs to maintain compliance with the regulations in the foreseeable future. The Company is subject to the rules and regulations of United States Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the United States Department of Transportation  (DOT). Among other things, these regulator authorities impose requirements which regulate the handling, packaging, labeling, transportation and disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous material and the health and safety of workers, and require the Company and, in certain instances, its employees, to obtain and maintains licenses in connection with its operations. The Company is also subject to regulations adopted by the United States Departments of Transportation which classify most refrigerants as hazardous materials or substances and impose requirements for handling, packaging and transporting refrigerants. Additionally, the Environmental Protection Agency performs regular, routine reviews of the business of each of the Company’s subsidiaries. The costs and effects of regulatory compliance with respect to each of EMC, Unifide and Todays are minimal.

Employees

The Company employs approximately 60 people, including two senior managers, approximately 50 employees at EMC, and approximately 11 employees at Unifide. Todays has 1 employee.

Item 2. Description of Property.

The Company currently leases office space in New York, New York on a month-to-month basis, at the rate of $3,400 per month. Through EMC, the Company currently leases office
 
6

 
and packaging facilities in Lakewood, New Jersey under a lease agreement expiring September 2010, at the current annual rate of $120,000. Through Unifide, the Company currently leases office space in West Long Branch, New Jersey and warehouse facilities in Harrison, New Jersey and Conshohocken, Pennsylvania at an annual aggregate cost of $116,000. Through Todays, the Company currently leases manufacturing and warehouse space in Akron, Ohio at an annual cost of $144,000. The Company believes that our facilities are adequate for our current needs. 

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

The Company is a party to several litigations none of which, in the opinion of management, are material to the Company. Management also believes that the Company has adequate defenses to each action filed however there can be no assurance that such defenses will be accepted. The Company’s management does not believe that there are any proceedings to which any director, officer, or affiliate of the Company, any owner of record of beneficially held or owner of more than five percent (5%) of the Company’s common stock, or any associate of any such director, officer, affiliate of the Company, or security holder is a party adverse to the Company, or has a material interest adverse to the Company.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

None.
PART II

Item 5. Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters.

Since February 11, 2005 and through August 28, 2005, the Company’s common stock traded on the “pink sheets” under the symbol ILNP.PK. Prior to such date, the Company's common stock was traded on the pink sheets under the symbol AVBC.PK. The following sets forth the range of the closing bid prices for the Company's common stock for (i) the quarterly periods for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, (ii) the quarterly periods in the transition period from December 31, 2003 through June 30, 2004, and (iii) the quarterly periods for the year ended December 31, 2003. Such prices represent inter-dealer quotations, do not represent actual transactions, and do not include retail mark-ups, mark-downs or commissions. Such prices were determined from information provided by a majority of the market makers for the Company's common stock. As described in “Recent Developments” on page 1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, as of August 29, 2005, the Company’s common stock has traded on the OTCBB under the symbol ILNP.OB.

The prices shown above through the quarter ended March 31, 2003 relate to the Company’s predecessor, Ciro, which was traded on the pink sheets under the symbol CIRR.PK.

The approximate number of holders of the common stock of the Company as of September 28, 2005 was 525.

As previously disclosed by the Company in a Current Report on Form 8-K, on February 22, 2005, the Board of Directors authorized the payment of a stock dividend to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 9, 2005. On May 19, 2005, the Company’s stockholders of record as of such date were to receive one Power3 Share for every block of ten shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company further announced that it would pay an additional stock dividend of one Power3 Share for each block of ten shares of the Company’s common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 9, 2005, also payable on May 19, 2005. Additionally, as previously disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K/A, the Power3 Shares held by the Company are not registered under the Securities Act, and are therefore restricted securities. Prior to the payment date, the Company’s management disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed on April 22, 2005, that it had determined that the stock dividend would likely not be paid on May 19, 2005 as originally intended. The Company further disclosed that it intended to pay the dividend of Power3 Shares within ten days following the first to occur of the: (i) receipt by the Company of a no-action letter from the SEC to the effect that the SEC will not take enforcement action if the Company delivers to the Company stockholders the Power3 Shares, or (ii) the availability of an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The record dates with respect to the dividend of Power3 Shares remained March 9, 2005 and May 9, 2005, as originally approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

While the payment of dividends rests within the discretion of the Board of Directors, it is not anticipated that cash dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future, as the Company intends to retain earnings, if any, for use in the development of its business. The payment of dividends is contingent upon the Company's future earnings, if any, the Company's financial condition and its capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors.

In connection with the Unifide and Todays acquisitions, the sellers received 3,500,000 shares and 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively, subject to adjustment in the number of shares if the price of the Company’s common stock was less than $0.30 from the period from July 1, 2005 to July 10, 2005. These sales and purchases of the Company’s common stock in the two acquisitions were exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) on the basis that the transactions did not involve a public offering. Each of the purchasers of the Company’s common stock in connection with the acquisitions of Unifide and Todays 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.

Other than as described in the foregoing paragraph, the Company did not offer or sell any unregistered securities in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005. As discussed in “Recent Developments” above, as of July 13, 2005, the Company offered and sold to accredited investors an aggregate of $570,000 worth of promissory notes and warrants to purchase shares of its common stock. These securities were not sold through an underwriter and there were no underwriting discounts. This private placement was conducted through a placement agent, and the commissions to such placement agent from the offering amounted to $57,000. 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. Additionally, as of July 19, 2005, the Company held an initial closing with respect to its offer and sale to certain accredited investors of promissory notes and related warrants of an aggregate of $1,710,000. The sales and purchases in the two private placements discussed in this paragraph were exempt from registration under Section 4(2) the Securities Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder, on the basis that each of the private placement did not involve a public offering.

Other than as described above, there were no underwriters or placement agents involved in any of the foregoing transactions.

For the Year ended June 30, 2005 and the six months ended 2004

Revenue and gross profit for the year ended June 30, 2005 and for the six months ended June 30, 2004, was $3,953,748 and $840,838, respectively, and reflects the revenue and gross profit derived from EMC’s operations during the year.

Total operating expenses for the year ended June 30, 2005 was $4,058,794. Of this amount, $514,605 was due to EMC’s operations and the balance, or $3,544,189, was due to the Company’s corporate expenses. The greater majority of these corporate expenses pertained to legal and professional fees of $3,029,635, arising from the ongoing reorganization of the Company.

The operating expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2004 were $-0-. Interest expenses for the year ended June 30, 2005 and for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was $462,092 and $-0-, respectively, with the increase primarily attributable to $106,987 of interest expense incurred by EMC during the year ended June 30, 2005.

During the year ended June 30, 2005, the Company cancelled $699,453 of certain liabilities related to the Power3 Liabilities disclosed above in “Recent Developments - Power3 Dispute”. These cancelled liabilities are comprised of $388,115 of notes payable; $123,382 of accrued interest; $92,663 of credit card debt; and $92,293 of accounts payable to former shareholders.

The result of the above was a net loss for the year ended June 30, 2005 of $3,727,810, compared to a loss of $419,798 in the six month period ended June 30, 2004. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had a working capital deficit of $2,978,254 as of June 30, 2005. This compares to a working capital deficit of $2,782,319 as of June 30, 2004.

Net cash provided by operations for the year ended June 30, 2005 was a negative $767,958, compared to a negative cash provided by operations in the six months ended June 30, 2004 of $233,044. This increase in funds used by operations was attributable to the increased net loss and $500 of stock-based compensation (a non-cash item) in the 2004 period.

Net cash used by investing activities was $381,026 in the annual period ended June 30, 2005; there was no investing activity in the six month period  ended June 30, 2004.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward- Looking Statements

It should be noted that this Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations may contain "forward-looking statements." 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. Although the Company's management believes that such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it cannot guarantee that such expectations are, or will be, correct. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties which could cause the Company's future results to differ materially from those anticipated, including: (i) the Company's history of ongoing operating losses; (ii) the overall marketplace and clients' usage of EMC's and Unifide’s products, including demand therefore, the impact of competitive technologies, products and pricing, particularly given the substantially larger size and scale of certain competitors and potential competitors, control of expenses, and revenue generated by the acquisition of new customers; (iii) the ultimate consequences of Hurricane Katrina on the supply and/or distribution chain; (iv) the consequent results of operations given the aforementioned factors; and (v) the requirement for the Company to raise additional working capital to fund operations and the availability and terms of any such funding to the Company. Without any such funding, the Company believes it may be forced to curtail operations, and if no alternative to financing, such as an additional merger or acquisition, is consummated, the Company may not continue as a going concern. The foregoing list should not be construed as exhaustive, and the Company disclaims any obligation subsequently to 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. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking information included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation that the strategy, objectives or other plans of the Company will be achieved.

Item 8. Changes In and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

As previously disclosed, the independent auditors of Ciro, Lazar Levine and Felix LLP, predecessor auditor of the legal acquirer in the reverse merger, resigned as the independent auditors of Ciro effective December 7, 2004 because such auditors had no dealings with the
 
11

 
Company since July 24, 2003. In October 2003, the Company filed a Form 15 with the SEC under Rule 12g-4(a)(1)(i) of the 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 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.

Item 8A. 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 Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report (the "Evaluation Date"), have concluded that as of the Evaluation Date, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective and not adequate 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 SEC'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 SEC disclosure needs and requirements. Management has reviewed the recommendations set forth in a letter from the Company’s auditors and has brought the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures in line with such recommendations.  The Company’s independent auditors had made a number of recommendations including, but not limited to, the following: (i) the Company should improve accounting controls through the formalization and adoption of accounting policies and procedures, and (ii) additional recommendations related to improving internal controls through the separation of duties within the accounting function.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no significant changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this annual report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Code of Ethics; Audit Committee

The Company has not yet adopted a code of ethics that applies to its principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. Until recently, the Company’s Board of Directors had chosen not to adopt such a code of ethics because the Company only had one executive officer and one employee. However, the Company is now in the process of formalizing and adopting a code of ethics.

14


The Board of Directors has not formally established an Audit Committee or any committee performing similar functions; however, the Company is in the process of establishing the Audit Committee. As such, the Company does not have an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 401(e) of Regulation S-B. Until recently, the Company’s management believed that, given its size and its status as a company with no operations, the establishment of an Audit Committee and the retention of an audit committee financial expert was not necessary and would be cost-prohibitive. Similarly, the Company does not have a standing nominating committee or any committee performing a similar function.

Compliance With Section 16(a) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires executive officers and directors who beneficially own more than ten percent (10%) of the Company's common stock to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes of ownership with the SEC. Executive officers, directors and greater than ten percent (10%) beneficial owners are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on a review of Section 16(a) forms, the Company believes that the following persons failed to file a Form 3 on a timely basis: (1) Crawford Shaw, (2) John Mazzuto, (3) Robert J. Casper, (4) Jerome Davis, and (5) Lou Frey, Jr.

Item 12. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.

In May 2004, the Company entered into the Power3 Agreement, among the Company, Power3 and the Shareholders. According to the Company’s records, the Power3 Sale was approved by the Company’s shareholders by proxy. As provided in the Power3 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,
18

 
warranties, and indemnifications in the Power3 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. Please see the discussion regarding the Power3 Sale in “Item 1 - Description of Business - Background” and “Item 5 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation”. Regal Partners, Inc., ashareholder of the Company provided investment banking services during the year and received compensation of $200,000 for such services. Such compensation was offset by a near equal amount of receivable due from such shareholder. Management believes that the compensation is fair and reasonable and is based on arms length negotiations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Industrial Enterprises of America, Inc. (formerly Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc.) (the “Company”), as of June 30, 2005, and the related statement of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Industrial Enterprises of America, Inc. (formerly Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc.) as of June 30, 2005, and the results of its operations, equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has had limited operations and have not commenced planned principal operations. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1.     Company Background and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of the Organization

Industrial Enterprises of America, Inc. (formerly Advanced Bio/Chem, Inc.), a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) is a holding company. Its wholly owned subsidiary, EMC Packaging, Inc. is primarily engaged in the manufacturing and sales of packaged refrigerants for the automotive and dusting markets.

On April 14, 2003, the Company and GESJ, Inc., (“GESJ”), a Texas corporation, owned by four former 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 purpose of the merger was to acquire the management team of GESJ.

In June 2003, the Company merged with Ciro International, Inc., a Nevada corporation, resulting in the Company being the surviving entity in a reverse acquisition with Ciro, a public shell company.

Change in year end

During 2004, the Company changed its fiscal year from one ending on December 31 to one ending on June 30. Application for the change in accounting year is pending with the Internal Revenue Service. Accordingly, the Company’s transition period that ended on June 30, 2004 includes the six months from January 1, 2004 to June 30, 2004

Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary corporation, after elimination of all material intercompany accounts, transactions and profits.

Basis of Accounting

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting and, accordingly, reflect all significant receivables, payables and other liabilities.

F-7


INDUSTRIAL ENTERPRISES OF AMERICA, INC.
(formerly ADVANCED BIO/CHEM, INC.)

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Use of Estimates in Preparing Financial Statements

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Those estimates and assumptions affect amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying notes. The more significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to the percentage of work completed in determining work in process, evaluating the outcome of uncertainties involving claims against or on behalf of the Company, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, cash flow projections and fair values used in the determination of asset impairment. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company’s shipping and handling costs are included in cost of sales for all periods presented.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company has cash in bank and short-term investments which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and short-term investments.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s subsidiary recognizes revenue principally from sales of hydroflurocarbon refrigerants and propellants used in medical applications, refrigeration, automotive air conditioning, boat horns, and gas dusting. Revenues are recognized as earned.

INDUSTRIAL ENTERPRISES OF AMERICA, INC.
(formerly ADVANCED BIO/CHEM, INC.)

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts. The Company’s estimate is based on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of trade accounts receivable. It is reasonably possible that the Company’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts will change. Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $15,000 and $-0- at June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Net (Loss) Per share

Net (loss) per basic share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Net (loss) per diluted share is computed using the weighted average common shares and potential common shares outstanding. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. The computation for earnings per common share, assuming dilution, for the year ended June 30, 2005 and for the six month period June 30, 2004 was antidilutive, and therefore is not included. Outstanding warrants as of June 30, 2005 and 2004, totaled 2,950,000 and 2,500,000, respectively.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments
 
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and notes payable. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair values due to the short maturity of those instruments. The carrying amount of debt reported in the balance sheets approximates fair value because, in general, the interest on the underlying instruments approximates market rates.
 
Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Repairs and maintenance, which are not considered betterments and do not extend the useful life of property, are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the asset and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in income. The ranges of estimated useful lives used in computing depreciation are as follows:
 
Equipment
7 - 10 years
Vehicles
3 - 5 years
Office equipment
7 years

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Advertising Costs
 
The Company expenses all costs of advertising as incurred. Advertising costs totaling $-0- and $-0- were included in sales and marketing expenses for the year ended June 30, 2005 and for the six month period ended June 30, 2004.

Segment Reporting
 
The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”. The Company operates as a single segment and will evaluate additional segment disclosure requirements as it expands its operations.

Dividends

The Company has not yet adopted any policy regarding payment of dividends. As of June 30, 2005, no dividends have been paid. On February 22, 2005, the Company declared a stock dividend of Power 3 Medical Products, Inc. shares to Company stockholders of record as of March 9, 2005. A second dividend of Power3 Shares was to be paid to Company stockholders of record as of May 9, 2005. For every 10 shares of the Company’s stock, shareholders were to receive one share of Power3 on May 16, 2005. As disclosed in Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on April 22, 2005, the dividend has been suspended pending (i) the receipt by the Company of a no-action letter from the SEC to the effect that the Commission will not take enforcement action if the Company delivers to the Company stockholders the Power3 Shares or (ii) the availability of an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act. The record dates with respect to the dividend of Power3 Shares will remain March 9, 2005 and May 9, 2005, as originally approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company intends to pay the dividend within ten days of whichever occurs first. See further discussion at Note 12.

INDUSTRIAL ENTERPRISES OF AMERICA, INC.
(formerly ADVANCED BIO/CHEM, INC.)

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Income taxes
 
The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“SFAS No. 109”) for recording the provision for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability each period. If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change.
 
Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.

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.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 (revised 2004) “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R), which is a revision of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Statement 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends FASB Statement No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in Statement 123R is similar to the approach described in Statement 123.  However, Statement 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative.

F-11


INDUSTRIAL ENTERPRISES OF AMERICA, INC.
(formerly ADVANCED BIO/CHEM, INC.)

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Statement 123R must be adopted no later than July 1, 2005.  Early adoption will be permitted in periods in which financial statements have not yet been issued.  The Company expects to adopt Statement 123R on July 1, 2005.  Statement 123R permits public companies to adopt its requirements using one of two methods:

     
1.
A “modified prospective” method in which compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based on the requirements of Statement 123R for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and (b) based on the requirements of Statement 123 for all awards granted to employees prior to the effective date of Statement 123R that remain unvested on the effective date.

     
2. 
A “modified retrospective” method which includes the requirements of the modified prospective method described above, but also permits entities to restate based on the amounts previously recognized under Statement 123 for purposes of pro forma disclosures either (a) all prior periods presented or (b) prior interim periods of the year of adoption.

The Company is currently evaluating the two different methods for the adoption of Statement 123 and has not determined which of the two methods it will adopt.

As of June 30, 2005, the Company has not issued stock-based payments to our employees, though it anticipates the issuance of stock options during 2006. During the year ended June 30, 2005 the Company recognized stock-based compensation of $1,654,000.

The Company believes that the adoption of Statement 123R’s fair value method will have a material impact on its result of operations, although it will have no impact on the Company’s overall financial position.  The impact of adoption of Statement 123R cannot be predicted at this time because it will depend on levels of share-based payments granted in the future. Statement 123R also requires the benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost to be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as required under current literature.  This requirement will reduce net operating cash flows and increase net financing cash flows in periods after adoption.  The Company cannot estimate what those amounts will be as it will depend on the levels of share-based payments granted in the future. 

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Many of these instruments were previously classified as equity. The guidance in SFAS No. 150 is generally effective for all financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS No. 150 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 
 
Note 2.     Going Concern

The Company has sustained net losses from its inception in 2000 through June 30, 2005. At June 30, 2005, the Company had a deficit in stockholders’ equity in excess of $2 million. There can be no assurance that the Company will ever create economies of scale sufficient to generate revenue in excess of expenses or to enable shareholders to realize any return on their investment.

The Company relies on funding through bank debt, borrowing from related parties, loans from investors and sales of stock. Without continued funding from such sources, the Company could not remain in operation.

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has not commenced its planned principal operations and it has not generated any revenues. In order to obtain the necessary capital, the Company plans to raise funds via future securities offerings pursuant to Regulation D, Rules 504 and 506 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). If the securities offerings do not provide sufficient capital, a shareholder of the Company has agreed to provide sufficient funds. However, the Company is dependent upon its ability to secure equity and/or debt financing and there are no assurances that the Company will be successful, without sufficient financing it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern.

Due to the changing market conditions, in the year ended June 30, 2005 management conducted a thorough review of the inventory. As a result, a provision for inventory losses of $149,985 was charged against operations in 2005 to write down inventory to its net realizable value. This was based on the Company’s best estimates of product sales prices and customer demand patterns, and its plans to transition its products. It is at least reasonably possible for that the estimates used by the Company to determine its provision for inventory losses will be materially different from the actual amounts or results. These differences could result in materially higher than expected inventory provisions, which could have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition in the near term.

Stock dividend

On February 22, 2005, the Company’s directors authorized the payment of a stock dividend (the “Dividend”) to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 9, 2005 and May 9, 2005 (the “Company Stockholders”). Effective as of May 18, 2004, the Company sold to Power3 all of the Company’s assets in consideration for fifteen million (15,000,000) Power3 Shares. As of January 18, 2005, the Company beneficially owned twenty-three percent (23%) of the issued and outstanding Power3 Shares. On May 19, 2005, the Company held the fifteen million (15,000,000) Power3 Shares for a period of one (1) year. On May 19, 2005, the Company intended to allocate one share of Power3 common stock, par value $.001 per share to the Company Stockholders for every block of ten shares of common stock of the Company held by each such Company Stockholder. The Power3 Shares held by the Company are not registered under the Securities Act, and are therefore restricted securities. Although no action will be required on the part of the Company Stockholders, the Power3 Shares that are currently beneficially owned by the Company will not be delivered to the Company Stockholders unless and until (a) such shares are registered under the Act and, as applicable, under state blue sky laws, (b) an exemption from such registration is available, or (c) the Company requests and receives a no-action letter from the SEC to the effect that the SEC will not take enforcement action if the Company delivers to the Company Stockholders the Power3 shares which are the subject of the Dividend. As of the date hereof, the Company is not aware of any applicable exemption from registration. In October 2005, the management of the Company has decided to sell and/or dividend all of the shares currently held and they plan to initiate transactions to begin liquidation in full accordance with SEC rules and regulations.

The Company has disclosed that the Company’s management is currently reviewing the sale to Power3. Under the Agreement, Power3 agreed to purchase all of the assets and assume all of the liabilities (with the exception of those specifically excluded) of the Company. Additionally, the Agreement provided that the Company’s indebtedness would be repaid within five (5) business days of the closing date of the transaction. However, following such sale, $2.8 million in liabilities remained on the books of the Company. The Company has disclosed that it would take action to enforce any rights and remedies it may have with respect to this dispute.
 
In connection with this dispute, the Company has cancelled the debt of certain former officers, directors and shareholders totaling $694,453 during the quarter ended March 31, 2005 based on a determination that such debt should have been either assumed by Power3 or paid by the shareholder upon consummation of the Power3 transaction.  While the Company believes that it has a valid basis for such cancellation, there can be no assurance that the cancellation of the liabilities will not be disputed. This cancelled debt was comprised of $388,115 of notes payable; $123,382 of accrued interest; $92,663 of credit card debt; and $92,293 of accounts payable to former shareholders.

Private Placement

As of July 13, 2005 and July 19, 2005, the Company offered and sold to certain accredited investors promissory notes and related warrants worth worth $570,000 and $1,710,000, respectively.

Note 16.     Commitments and Contingencies

Loan Covenant Violation

The Company has been unable to obtain a waiver from its major bank, who provides its line of credit, regarding the mergers referred to in Note 11. The bank has notified the Company that the loan is in default. The Company believes that such loan is the responsibility of Power 3 as the assets that secure the loan went to Power 3 in the asset sale and the shareholder who guaranteed the loan went to Power 3 as an officer (see Disputed Liabilities from Discontinued Operations below). The Company has filed suit against Power 3 and such suit includes the above loan, but there can be no certainty that the Company will be successful in winning its lawsuit against Power 3. If the Company is unsuccessful, the Company may be required to immediately pay off the loan with funds from other sources. At June 30, 2005, the line of credit balance was approximately $142,464 and less than the $150,000 maximum permitted.

The Company is disputing this debt with Power 3 in accordance with the sale of its assets to Power 3.
