OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

NOTE 1 — OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

Chase Packaging Corporation ("the Company"), a Texas corporation, previously manufactured woven paper mesh for industrial applications, manufactured polypropylene mesh fabric bags for agricultural use, and distributed agricultural packaging manufactured by other companies.

 

Since January 1, 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company has been devoting its efforts to establish a new business and, accordingly, the Company is considered to be a development stage company in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 915.

 

Management's plans for the Company include securing a merger or acquisition, raising additional capital, and/or other strategies designed to optimize shareholder value. However, no assurance can be given that management will be successful in its efforts. The failure to achieve these plans will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations, and ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The interim condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to provide for fair presentation and a reasonable understanding of the information presented. The Interim Condensed Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes, as well as Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, as amended, previously filed with the SEC.

 

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of financial position as of September 30, 2011, results of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, as applicable, have been made. The results of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

 

Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported results of operations.

 

The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 2 to the Company's financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, which is incorporated herein by reference. Specific reference is made to that report for a description of the Company's securities and the notes to financial statements.
