ITEM 1. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
CERES Coin LLC ("CERES", the "Company") is a Delaware limited liability company formed on November 13, 2017, and, as of June 30, 2024, was as a single-member, manager-managed entity with a perpetual term. The Company's headquarters are in Marco Island, Florida.
As of the filing date, the Company's principal business is the development, issuance, and management of CERES Coin, a patented, yield-generating stablecoin that tokenizes shares of a U.S. Government Money Market Fund invested primarily in U.S. Treasuries. Transactions are effected pursuant to a Sub-Transfer Agency and Services Agreement with the fund's transfer agent (the "Sub-TA Agreement"). Under the Sub-TA Agreement, investor purchases are settled into shares of a U.S. government money market fund (the "fund") held at the fund's custodian; CERES acts solely as sub-transfer agent and on-chain recordkeeper and does not acquire or custody the underlying assets. This provides holders with a stable net asset value (NAV) of $1 per coin, potential yields of 2-3% based on fund performance, and fee-free peer-to-peer (P2P) transfers on a private blockchain (Hyperledger Fabric), with planned migration to public blockchains like Ethereum. CERES Coin is structured and will be offered as a security under U.S. federal securities laws, and any issuance, transfer, or redemption will occur only in compliance with applicable federal and state securities and other laws.
Protected by U.S. patents (US 12,141,769 for tokenizing SEC-registered securities; US 11,055,677 for managing tokenized securities with smart contracts; US 11,797,955 for securing transactions with multi-factor authentication and tamper-proof records), the technology enables secure, auditable transactions, positioning the Company to address inefficiencies in traditional systems, such as $521 billion in annual federal fraud (e.g., $10 billion in Supplemental Nutrition and Subsistence Program ("SNAP") overpayments, $80 billion in Medicaid improper payments, and Federal Emergency Management Agency ("FEMA") delays.
The Company's principal product is CERES Coin, a digital asset designed for instant, transparent peer-to-peer transfers and payments, supported by a 1:1 reserve model that is implemented through a sub-transfer-agency relationship with a U.S. government money market fund; separately, the Company has issued CERES Tokens, which are investment instruments that provide investors exposure to the Company and are not used for payments.
| · | CERES Coin (Product / Payments): CERES Coin is the Company's core operating product. Transactions are effected pursuant to a Sub-Transfer Agency and Services Agreement with the fund's transfer agent (the "Sub-TA Agreement"). Under the Sub-TA Agreement, investor purchases are settled into shares of a U.S. government money market fund held at the fund's custodian. The Company acts solely as sub-transfer agent and on-chain recordkeeper; it does not acquire, hold, or custody the underlying fund assets. CERES Coin is intended to maintain stable value and enable near-instant settlement for payments and transfers. Coin holders do not receive governance or equity rights in the Company by virtue of holding the coin. Issuance, transfer, redemption, and any applicable fees are administered under the Sub-TA Agreement and related program documents, subject to Know Your Customer/Anti Money Laundering ("KYC/AML") and other applicable laws. |
| · | CERES Token (Investment in the Company): CERES Token is a separate digital security-like instrument that represents an investment exposure to the Company, not to the coin reserves or the underlying fund. CERES Tokens have been, and may in the future be, offered in transactions conducted in compliance with U.S. securities laws, as described in the applicable offering materials and the Token Rights Agreement. Token holders may have contractual economic rights as set forth in those documents, but no claim to the assets that support CERES Coin and no right to use the token for payments on the network. The token is not a deposit, not a money-market fund share, and not backed by a 1:1 reserve. |
Holding CERES Coin does not provide any claim on the Company's profits, equity, or on CERES Token rights. Holding CERES Tokens does not provide any claim on the coin reserves or the money market fund shares used in the CERES Coin program. Program reserves and investor proceeds are administered under separate agreements (including the Sub-TA Agreement for CERES Coin and the Token Rights Agreement/related offering documents for CERES Token).
The Company understands the principal markets include:
| 1) | Government services for efficient disbursements: (U.S. federal outlays ≈ $6.1 trillion in FY2023 [Source: Office of Management and Budget/Historical Tables]; SNAP ≈ 41 million participants and ≈ $100 billion in benefits in FY2024 [Source: US Department of Agriculture]; Medicare ≈ $1.0 trillion and Medicaid ≈ $0.9 trillion in 2023 [Source Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ("CMS") ; Social Security ≈ $1.35 trillion in FY2023 [Source: Social Security Administration Trustees]; state & local direct general expenditures >$3.7 trillion [Source: U.S. Census]); |
| 2) | Institutional capital for compliant yield: (money market fund Assets Under Management ("AUM") ≈ $6.5-$7.0 trillion in 2024 [Source: Investment Company Institute/industry data]; on-chain/tokenized Treasuries > $1 billion and growing; multiple industry/analyst forecasts project tokenized cash-equivalents and bonds in the hundreds of billions by 2030 [Source: Bank for International Settlements/industry outlooks]); |
| 3) | Retail payments for zero-fee disruption: (U.S. retail sales >$7 trillion in 2023 [Source: U.S. Census]; non-cash now >80% of consumer payments by number [Source: Federal Reserve-Diary of Consumer Payment Choice]; P2P networks ≈ $1.0+ trillion in 2023-Zelle ≈ $806B and Venmo ≈ $245B [Source: Early Warning (Zelle) and PayPal filings]); and |
| 4) | Closed-loop ecosystems for corporate efficiency: (merchant card processing fees ≈ $170+ billion in 2023 [Source: Nilson Report]; notable sector losses, e.g., U.S. retail shrink ≈ $112B in 2022 [Source: National Retail Federation]; U.S. healthcare spend ≈ $4.5-$4.9 trillion [Source: Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services /National Health Expenditure]). |
Distribution occurs through compliant fintech platforms, exchanges, mobile apps, and partnerships, emphasizing programmability, interoperability, and alignment with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)'s waste reduction goals. Competitors like Circle's Stablecoin, USDC ($60 billion supply, 78% YoY growth) and Tether's Stablecoin, USDT ($144 billion AUM) lack yield and face regulatory hurdles, while CERES differentiates via patents, SEC qualification, U.S. domicile, and infinite AUM capacity.

Development Stage Company:
The company was formed as a Delaware limited liability company in November of 2017. Since inception CERES became one of the few digital asset companies to gain SEC approval for qualification for exemption from registration under Regulation A of JOBS Act. The normal process to a Regulation A filing is 2-3 months. It took CERES 2 years, 3months, and 11 days from initial filing to notice of approval. During that time CERES answered over 250 comments from the SEC. The company's proposed and limited levels of operations are subject to all business risks associated with new enterprises. The likelihood of the company's success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications, and delays frequently encountered in connection with the expansion of a business, operation in a competitive industry, and the continued development of business operations, many of which are beyond the control of the company and its management. Accordingly, there is a significant possibility that the company could sustain one or more significant losses in the future, and there can be no assurances that the company will operate profitably. The consulting agreement with Columbia Car has helped the cash position for the company.
Results of Operations
During the period ended June 30, 2024, the Company generated $180,000 in consulting revenues from a single client on a month-to-month fixed retainer basis related to financial technology advisory services. Revenues remained concentrated with one customer and were not related to the Company's future operations. Operating expenses included software and platform development costs of $315,077, payroll expenses of $112,780, and increased legal and compliance fees for the pivot to stablecoin development and administrative costs, totaling $185,025. No significant components of revenues or expenses existed beyond development and consulting, with no unusual events impacting results.
During the period ended June 30, 2023, the Company generated $90,000 in consulting revenues from a single client on a month-to-month fixed retainer basis related to financial technology advisory. This marked the initial revenue stream, though amounts were limited and concentrated with one customer and were not related to the Company's future operations. Operating expenses included administrative costs totaling $43,223. No significant components of revenues or expenses existed beyond development and consulting, with no unusual events impacting results.
The Company incurred a net loss during the 2024 period and a small net income in the 2023 period, resulting in substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. This situation indicates the Company may require capital infusions to settle liabilities and realize assets.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity in 2024 was supported by member contributions totaling approximately $312,000, which were used to pay Company expenses resulting in cash used in operating activities of approximately $4,000. Liquidity in 2023 was maintained through Company operations, with the approximately $43,000 in cash provided by operating activities adding to the Company's existing cash reserves.
Cash balances may have exceeded Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) limits at times, but management deemed the risk insignificant.
No material unused liquidity sources existed, and the Company had no outstanding debt under its renewed $500,000 unsecured revolving promissory note with CM Solutions LLC (5% interest, matured annually and renewed), a related party. To address liquidity deficiencies, the Company has historically relied on member contributions and plans to raise capital via token issuances and partnerships. No material capital expenditure commitments existed, but needs included technology and marketing, funded by financing proceeds.
| 3 |
Indebtedness
During the year of formation, 2018, the company borrowed $230,000 from four lenders. The borrowings were structured pursuant to a private investment agreement. The borrowings are unsecured. The creditors have the option of being repaid in cash or upon a qualified financing event may convert their loans to tokens issued by the Company in a ratio stipulated by the private investment agreement offering circular.
For the six month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, there were no incurrences of new debt.
Trends
During the next 6-12 months the company intends to take the following actions:
| · | Raise capital; |
| · | Continue to engage state regulators across the nation; |
| · | Commence principal operations. |
In order to achieve these actions, the Company has and will continue to raise additional funding. The company expects to complete this necessary funding during 2026.

CERES COIN LLC
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Background and Description of Business
CERES Coin LLC (the Company or CERES) was incorporated on November 13, 2017, in the state of Delaware as a perpetual limited liability corporation. The Company is a single member Limited Liability Company.
The Company has headquarters in Marco Island, Florida. The Company is a financial-technology firm focused on the development of blockchain-enabled payment and digital-asset infrastructure. The Company's principal product, CERES Coin, is designed to function as a tokenized representation of shares in a U.S. government money market fund through a sub-transfer-agency structure. The Company does not custody underlying fund assets and acts solely as a sub-transfer agent and on-chain recordkeeper. The Company's technology is supported by several issued U.S. patents related to the tokenization and management of digital representations of regulated financial assets. During 2024, the Company continued platform development and limited consulting activities as it advanced toward launching its stablecoin and related technology.
The Company has not yet commenced principal operations.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed financial statements and footnotes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and the instructions to Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full year ending December 31, 2024. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 1-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Going Concern
The Company's financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which necessarily contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of the Company's activities. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is also contingent upon its ability to raise capital. The Company has incurred significant expenses since its inception, some of which remain unpaid, without having generated any revenues from business operations during such period. As a result, a significant capital infusion is necessary to pay such expenses and to make the Company viable. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. It should also be noted that the financial statements provided herein do not include any adjustment(s) that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated all transactions through the date the financial statements were issued for subsequent event disclosure or adjustment consideration.

The note matured at the earlier of (a) December 31, 2020 or (b) the closing date of a Qualified Financing event. As a qualifying financing event has not occurred, the note expired each December 31st thereafter and been subsequently renewed on each following January 1st using identical terms.

Note 4 - Commitments and Contingencies
From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation in the ordinary course of business. The Company is not currently involved in any litigation that the Company believes could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
On January 30, 2024, CM Solutions LLC, the sole member of the Company, entered into an agreement with Clearfield Communications, LLC (Clearfield) to exchange all outstanding equity interests in the Company.
On December 13, 2024, the Company, CM Solutions LLC, and Clearfield entered into a Transfer and Settlement Agreement (the T&S Agreement) to unwind the January 2024 transaction. Under the T&S Agreement, Clearfield transferred back to CM Solutions LLC: (i) 100% of the equity interests in the Company, (ii) the right to receive 42 million CERES Tokens as contemplated in a January 30, 2024 side letter, and (iii) all CERES Intellectual Property Assets, including patents, the domain name cerescoin.io, and software related to the Hyperledger Fabric blockchain platform, free and clear of all liens.
Additionally, CERES Coin LLC granted Clearfield a perpetual, non-exclusive license to use a clone of the Hyperledger Fabric platform for its stablecoin payment business, subject to restrictions prohibiting competition with the Company's stablecoin business, involvement in professional sports or stadium events, or substantial modifications to loyalty/reward programs.
The T&S Agreement included mutual releases of claims arising prior to the closing date, except for obligations surviving under the T&S Agreement, such as those in the New Side Letter, Restated Side Letter, and CERES Perpetual License. The parties agreed to potential future payments contingent on capital raises: if the Company or its transferee raises $2,500,000 or more, Clearfield and Greg Anderson would receive $240,000 and $10,000 from the Company, respectively; if less than $2,500,000 is raised, they would receive 10% of the capital raised and 10% of future gross revenues until a total of $250,000 is paid, after the Company settles existing Company liabilities enumerated in the agreement documents.
Note 5 - Private Investment Agreements
In February 2018, the Company authorized the issuance and sale of up to $20,000,000 worth of Private Investment Agreements (PIA) to accredited investors. The PIA's are unsecured and noninterest bearing. Proceeds from the PIA's are to be used to issue loans to third parties. The PIA investors, as a group, will be entitled to receive 80% of the proceeds, net of repayment of principal (PIA loan net income), generated by the loans. The amounts due to the PIA investors from loan net income will be recorded as liabilities and will be distributed semi-annually to the holders pari passu and pro rata.
In January 2024, CM Solutions LLC entered into Subscription and PIA Termination Agreements with four legacy PIA investors, including the member of management (Note 3). As consideration for terminating the PIAs, three investors each received (i) 800 CM Solutions LLC shares at $62.50 per share and (ii) a non-transferable right to subscribe for a fixed number of CERES Tokens (619,834 tokens each). A fourth investor received (i) 800 CM Solutions LLC shares at $62.50 per share and (ii) a right to subscribe for 991,735 CERES Tokens on the same basis. All parties released one another from their prior PIA obligations.
Note 6 - Segment and Related Information
The Company has one reportable segment. The Company derives revenue in North America and manages all business activities on a consolidated basis. The services offered are deployed to customers in a similar manner.
The Company's chief operating decision maker (CODM) is the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis to allocate resources, evaluate financial performance and make overall operating decisions. The measure of segment profit or loss that is most consistent with the financial statements is net income. The accounting policies of our single reportable segment are the same as those for the financial statements. The level of disaggregation and amounts of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM are the same as those presented in the statements of operations. Likewise, the measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheets as total assets.

In connection with the T&S Agreement (Note 4), $110,000 of the proceeds from this transaction were paid to Clearfield ($105,600) and Greg Anderson ($4,400).
