NOTE
1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Cetrone
Energy Company was incorporated on January 28, 2008 in the State of
Nevada.
The
principal business of the Company is to develop “green” renewable fuel source for
agricultural operations, specifically biodiesel. The Company’s
year-end is December 31.
NOTE
2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
This
summary of significant accounting policies of Cetrone Energy Company is
presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial
statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of
the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and
objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been
consistently applied in the preparation of the financial
statements.
Accounting
Method
The
Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of
accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.
Accounting
Pronouncements
In May,
2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance
Contracts—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60” (SFAS 163). This Statement
requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an
event of default (insured event) when there is evidence that credit
deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation. This Statement
also clarifies how Statement 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance
contracts, including the recognition and measurement to be used to account for
premium revenue and claim liabilities. Those clarifications will increase
comparability in financial reporting of financial guarantee insurance contracts
by insurance enterprises. This Statement requires expanded disclosures about
financial guarantee insurance contracts. The accounting and disclosure
requirements of the Statement will improve the quality of information provided
to users of financial statements. This Statement is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all
interim periods within those fiscal years, except for some disclosures about the
insurance enterprise’s risk-management activities. This Statement requires that
disclosures about the risk-management activities of the insurance enterprise be
effective for the first period (including interim periods) beginning after
issuance of this Statement. Except for those disclosures, earlier application is
not

permitted. The
adoption of this statement will have no material effect on the Company’s
financial condition or results of operations.
In May,
2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 162, “The Heirarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles” (SFAS No. 162). This Statement identifies the sources of accounting
principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the
preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are
presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in
the United States (the GAAP hierarchy). The sources of accounting
principles1 that are generally accepted are categorized in descending order of
authority as follows:
a. FASB
Statements of Financial Accounting Standards and Interpretations, FASB Statement
133 Implementation Issues, FASB Staff Positions, and American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Accounting Research Bulletins and
Accounting Principles Board Opinions that are not superseded by actions of the
FASB
b. FASB
Technical Bulletins and, if cleared by the FASB, AICPA Industry Audit and
Accounting Guides and Statements of Position
c. AICPA
Accounting Standards Executive Committee Practice Bulletins that have been
cleared by the FASB, consensus positions of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force
(EITF), and the Topics discussed in Appendix D of EITF Abstracts (EITF
D-Topics)
d.
Implementation guides (Q&As) published by the FASB staff, AICPA Accounting
Interpretations, AICPA Industry Audit and Accounting Guides and Statements of
Position not cleared by the FASB, and practices that are widely recognized and
prevalent either generally or in the industry.
The
adoption of this statement will have no material effect on the Company’s
financial condition or results of operations.
In March
2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (SFAS No. 161). This
statement changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and
hedging activities. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about
(a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative
instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and
its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative
F-5

ENERGY COMPANY
NOTES TO
THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

instruments
and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial
performance, and cash flows. This Statement is intended to enhance the
current disclosure framework in Statement 133. The Statement requires that
objectives for using derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying
risk and accounting designation. This disclosure better conveys the purpose of
derivative use in terms of the risks that the entity is intending to manage.
Disclosing the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses
in a tabular format should provide a more complete picture of the location in an
entity’s financial statements of both the derivative positions existing at
period end and the effect of using derivatives during the reporting period.
Disclosing information about credit-risk-related contingent features should
provide information on the potential effect on an entity’s liquidity from using
derivatives. Finally, this Statement requires cross-referencing within the
footnotes, which should help users of financial statements locate important
information about derivative instruments.
Cash and Cash
Equivalents
For
purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid
investments and short-term debt instruments with original maturities of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.
Derivative
Instruments
The
Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities” (hereinafter “SFAS No. 133”), as amended by SFAS No. 137,
“Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – Deferral of the
Effective Date of FASB No. 133”, and SFAS No. 138, “Accounting for Certain
Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities”, and SFAS No. 149,
“Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities”. These statements establish accounting and reporting
standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments
embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. They require
that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the
balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value.
If
certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a
hedge, the objective of which is to match the timing of gain or loss recognition
on the hedging derivative with the recognition of (i) the changes in the fair
value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk
or (ii) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. For a
derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is
recognized in income in the period of change.
At
September 30, 2008, the Company has not engaged in any transactions that would
be considered derivative instruments or hedging activities.

Earnings Per
Share
The
Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, which
provides for calculation of "basic" and "diluted" earnings per
share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed
by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted
average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings
per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the
earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per
share. Basic and diluted loss per share were the same, at the
reporting dates, as there were no common stock equivalents
outstanding.
Fair Value of Financial
Instruments
The
Company's financial instruments as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,"
include cash, trade accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued
expenses. All instruments are accounted for on a historical cost
basis, which, due to the short maturity of these financial instruments,
approximates fair value at September 30, 2008.
SFAS No.
157, “Fair Value Measurements(“SFAS 157), define fair value, establishes a
framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
SFAS 157 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the
inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1.
Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level 2.
Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable
either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3.
Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires
the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
The
Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a
recurring basis at September 30, 2008. The Company did not have any fair value
adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring
basis during the three months ended September 30, 2008.
Provision for
Taxes
Income
taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 “Accounting for Income
Taxes.” Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to
reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax
basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each
year-end. A valuation allowance is recorded against

deferred
tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely
than not” standard imposed by SFAS No. 109 to allow recognition of such an
asset.
At
September 30, 2008, the Company had net deferred tax assets calculated at an
expected rate of 34% of approximately $1,715 principally arising from net
operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes. As management
of the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not that the Company
will realize the benefit of the net deferred tax asset, a valuation allowance
equal to the net deferred tax asset has been established at September 30,
2008. The significant components of the deferred tax asset at June
30, 2008 were as follows:

At
September 30, 2008, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $5,045, which expire in the year 2028. The above estimates are
based upon management’s decisions concerning certain elections which could
change the relationship between net income and taxable income. Management
decisions are made annually and could significantly vary from the
estimates.
Use of
Estimates
The
process of preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use
of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities,
revenues, and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled
transactions and events as of the date of the financial
statements. Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ
from estimated amounts.
Going
Concern
As shown
in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had negative working
capital and an accumulated deficit incurred through September 30,
2008. The Company is currently putting technology in place which
will, if successful, mitigate these factors which raise substantial doubt about
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and
classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of
liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in
existence.

Management
has established plans designed to increase the sales of the Company’s products,
and decrease debt. The
Company plans to source raw materials needed for remanufacture domestically,
then produce the needed biofuel in small batches tailored to the needs of
customer demand until such time as larger quantities can be
produced. Profit margins will presumably increase as batch size and
storage limits can be increased. However, currently the Company is
dependent upon raising proceeds from the sale of its common stock or through
debt financing in order to continue the development of its proposed
business. Management intends to seek additional capital from new
equity securities offerings that will provide funds needed to increase
liquidity, fund internal growth and fully implement its business
plan.
An
estimated $120,000 is believed necessary to continue operations and increase
development through the next fiscal year. The timing and amount of
capital requirements will depend on a number of factors, including demand for
products and services and the availability of opportunities for expansion
through affiliations and other business relationships. Management
intends to seek new capital from new equity securities issuances to provide
funds needed to increase liquidity, fund internal growth, and fully implement
its business plan.
NOTE
3– CAPITAL STOCK
Common
Stock
The
Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of common stock. All
shares have equal voting rights, are non-assessable and have one vote per
share. Voting rights are not cumulative and, therefore, the holders
of more than 50% of the common stock could, if they choose to do so, elect all
of the directors of the Company.
In its
initial capitalization in, the Company issued 2,200,000 shares of common stock
for a total of $2,000 cash, and $2,000 in services.
NOTE

On May
16, 2008, an officer and director of the Company used $100 to open up a bank
account on behalf of the Company. As of September 30, 2008, the Company has not
yet reimbursed the officer for this cash advance. The funds advanced
are unsecured, non-interest bearing, and due on demand.

Company
History
Cetrone
Energy Company (the “Company”) is a development stage company. The Company was
organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 28,
2008. We formed our Company for the purpose of establishing a
renewable fuel source for agricultural operations, specifically within the
Pacific Northwest. Biodiesel is our initial intended product will be
a combination of both raw and/or waste vegetable oil and traditional petroleum
diesel. We believe this combination may reduce carbon emissions,
maintain a high level of engine performance while utilizing primarily renewable
resources that can be grown or produced locally. Our intended
product, while not technically difficult to produce, has a number of regulatory
hurdles which must be overcome before it can ever successfully be brought to
market. Since becoming incorporated, the Company has not made any significant
purchase or sale of assets, nor has it been involved in any mergers,
acquisitions or consolidations and the Company has no
subsidiaries. Our fiscal year end is December 31st.
Business
Development
The
Company has not begun to commenced our planned principal strategic operations
and have no significant assets. Our operations to date have been
devoted primarily to startup and development activities, which include the
following:
1.
Formation of the Company;
2.
Initial development of business plan;
3.
Initial capitalization of the Company; and
4. Filed
Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(“SEC”).
The
Company filed a registration statement on Form S-1 on September 9, 2008, which
was deemed effective on September 24, 2008. As of November 12, 2008
the Company had not sold any shares, which will are necessary to fund the
initial developments of the Company. The Company plans to continue to
offer its common stock to the public through this registration statement through
the fourth quarter of 2008 or until it is fully subscribed. However, there
can be no guarantee or assurance that the Company will be able to sell its
common stock to the public and raise adequate funds. If it is unable to raise
proceeds from this offering the business will fail and any investment made into
the Company would be lost.
1
Cetrone
Energy Company is attempting to become fully operational. In order to
generate revenues, we must successfully address the following
areas:
1. Raise Proceeds through sale of
common stock: The Company is offering to the public through its
registration statement file on Form S-1 September 9, 2008 1,500,000 common
shares at a price of $0.08 per share.
2. Start Production of Primary
Products: The Company must start approaching producers of the raw
materials to be used in the biodiesel products.
3. Develop and Implement
a Marketing Plan: In order to promote our company and
establish our public presence, we believe we will be required to develop and
implement a comprehensive marketing plan to sell our biodiesel
products. CEC intends to market initially through a website and by
attending trade shows. Without any marketing campaign, we may be
unable to generate interest in, or generate awareness of, our
company.
4. Create Customer
Loyalty: We are a small, start-up company that has not
generated any significant revenues and lacks a stable customer
base. It is critical that we begin to establish relationships to
potential customers by promoting quality products and services and then
delivering on a consistent basis.
There can
be no guarantee or assurance that the Company will be successful in
accomplishing any of the above steps. If the Company is unable to complete one
or more of the above steps its business would fail and any investment made into
the Company would be lost in its entirety.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As of
September 30, 2008, we have $2, 030 of cash available. We have
current liabilities of $3,075. From the date of inception (January
28, 2008) to September 30, 2008 the Company has recorded a net loss of $5,045 of
which were expenses relating to the initial development of the Company, filing
its Registration Statement on Form S-1, and expenses relating to
maintaining reporting company status with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. As of September 30, 2008 we had raised approximately no
proceeds from the sale of out common stock through our registered offering. We
will require additional capital investments or borrowed funds to meet cash flow
projections and carry forward our business objectives. There can be no guarantee
or assurance that we can raise adequate capital from outside sources to fund the
proposed business.
To date
there is no public market for the Company’s common stock. If and when
the Company sells its common shares through its registration statement,
management plans to focus efforts on obtaining quotation of the Company’s common
stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB.) There can be no
guarantee or assurance that they will be successful in accomplishing this task;
moreover, even if the common stock is listed on the OTCBB there can be no
guarantee that a market would develop for the Company’s common stock. Failure to
create a market for the Company’s common stock would result in business failure
and a complete loss of any investment made into the Company.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
As of the
date of this Quarterly Report, the Company does not have any off-balance sheet
arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future
effect on the Company's financial condition, changes in financial condition,
revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or
capital resources that are material to investors. The term "off-balance sheet

4. Controls and Procedures
The
management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining
adequate internal control over financial reporting, as required by
Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Section 404 A. The Company's internal control over
financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company's
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation
of the Company's financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
As of
September 30, 2008 management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's
internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective
internal control over financial reporting established in SEC guidance on
conducting such assessments. Based on that evaluation, they concluded that,
during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures
were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP rules as
more fully described below. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the
design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting that
adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be
material weaknesses.
The
matters involving internal controls and procedures that the Company's management
considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee and
lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company's board of directors,
resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of
required internal controls and procedures; (2) inadequate segregation of duties
consistent with control objectives; (3) insufficient written policies and
procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the
requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (4)
ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting
processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by the
Company's Chief Financial Officer in connection with the review of our financial
statements as of September 30, 2008 and communicated the matters to our
management.
Management
believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items (2), (3) and (4) above
did not have an affect on the Company's financial results. However, management
believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority
of outside directors on the Company's board of directors, resulting in
ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal
controls and procedures can result in the Company's determination to its
financial statements for the future years.

We are
committed to improving our financial organization. As part of this commitment,
we will create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives
and will increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise
within the accounting function when funds are available to the Company: i)
Appointing one or more outside directors to our board of directors who shall be
appointed to the audit committee of the Company resulting in a fully functioning
audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and
monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; and ii) Preparing and
implementing sufficient written policies and checklists which will set forth
procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the
requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure
requirements.
Management
believes that the appointment of one or more outside directors, who shall be
appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a
functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on the
Company's Board. In addition, management believes that preparing and
implementing sufficient written policies and checklists will remedy the
following material weaknesses (i) insufficient written policies and procedures
for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and
application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (ii) ineffective
controls over period end financial close and reporting processes. Further,
management believes that the hiring of additional personnel who have the
technical expertise and knowledge will result proper segregation of duties and
provide more checks and balances within the department. Additional personnel
will also provide the cross training needed to support the Company if personnel
turn over issues within the department occur. This coupled with the appointment
of additional outside directors will greatly decrease any control and procedure
issues the company may encounter in the future.
We will
continue to monitor
and evaluate the effectiveness of
our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over
financial reporting on an ongoing basis and
are committed to
taking further action and implementing
additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds
allow.
Changes
In Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There
were no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or, to the
Company's knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect these
controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
