Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements

Note 1 - Organization and Description of Business

GPL Holdings, Inc. (we, us, our, or the "Company") was incorporated by Sylvester Lee Crawford on July 30, 2021 in the State of Nevada.

On July 30, 2021, Sylvester Lee Crawford was appointed Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Director of GPL Holdings, Inc.

~~The~~On ~~Company~~May ~~intends~~12, to2022, ~~serve~~the ~~as a~~Company ~~vehicle~~filed toAmended ~~affect~~and anRestated ~~asset~~Articles ~~acquisition, merger, exchange~~ of ~~capital~~Incorporation ~~stock or other business combination~~ with athe ~~domestic~~Nevada orSecretary ~~foreign~~of ~~business~~State. As ofAmongst ~~April~~other 30changes, ~~2022,~~ the ~~Company~~authorized shares ~~had~~were ~~not yet commenced any operations~~amended.

~~The~~On May 23, 2022, the Company, ~~has~~or ~~elected~~“Successor”, ~~July~~transmuted ~~31st~~its asbusiness ~~its~~plan ~~year~~from ~~end~~that of a blank check shell company to a business combination related shell company with a holding company formation pursuant to a reorganization with Benchmark Energy Corporation (“BMRK” or “Predecessor” ). The reason for the change in the nature of our business plan was due to the fact that our sole director believed it to be in the best interest of the Company to complete a holding company reorganization (“Reorganization”) with BMRK. The “Articles of Merger” pursuant to the Reorganization were filed on May 23, 2022 with the Nevada Secretary of State, with an equivalent effective date.

The constituent corporations in the Reorganization were Benchmark Energy Corporation (“BMRK” or “Predecessor”), the Company and GPL Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”). Our director is and was the sole director/officer of each constituent corporation in the Reorganization.

Pursuant to the reorganization, the Company issued 1,000 common shares of its common stock to Predecessor and Merger Sub issued 1,000 shares of its common stock to the Company immediately prior to the Reorganization. Immediately prior to the merger, the Company was a wholly owned direct subsidiary of BMRK and Merger Sub was a wholly owned and direct subsidiary of the Company. The legal effective date of the Reorganization was May 23, 2022 (the “Effective Time”). At the Effective Time, Predecessor was merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger), and Predecessor was the surviving corporation. Each share of Predecessor common stock (BMRK) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Successor common stock.

Each share of Predecessor’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Successor common stock. The controlling shareholder of Successor is GPL Holdings, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company. Sylvester L. Crawford, our sole director, is the sole member of GPL Holdings, LLC and is therefore deemed to be the indirect and beneficial holder of a total of 150,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company representing approximately 85.09% voting control of the Company. Mr. Crawford is the same officer/director of the Predecessor and Merger Sub. Yantis Family Trust owns approximately 5.67 % voting control. There are no other shareholders not already disclosed or any officer/director holding at least 5% of the outstanding voting shares of the Company. Currently, there are 176,285,321 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding of the issuer.

On May 26, 2022, GPL Holdings, Inc. was issued a CUSIP number by CUSIP Global Services of 3621MX103. The announcement of our corporate action and release of our ticker symbol “GPLL” was posted on the FINRA Daily List on October 21, 2022. As a result of the aforementioned Reorganization and FINRA’S subsequent completion of their review, GPL Holdings, Inc. began a quoted market in its common stock on October 24, 2022 under the ticker symbol “GPLL” as listed by the OTC Markets Group.

The Company intends to serve as a vehicle to affect an asset acquisition, merger, exchange of capital stock or other business combination with a domestic or foreign business.

As of October 31, 2022, the Company had not yet commenced any operations.

The Company has elected July 31th as its year end.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company's financial statements. 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.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading have been included. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents as of ~~April~~October 3031, 2022 and July 31, ~~2021~~2022 were $0 for both periods.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations. No deferred tax assets or liabilities were recognized as of ~~April~~October 3031, 2022.

F-5

Table of Contents

Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The Company computes basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company.

The Company does not have any potentially dilutive instruments as of ~~April~~October 3031, 2022 and, thus, anti-dilution issues are not applicable.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s balance sheet includes certain financial instruments. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair value because of the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization.

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

- Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

- Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

- Level 3 - Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of ~~April~~October 3031, 2022. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. These financial instruments include accrued expenses.

Related Parties

The Company follows ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures, for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.

Share-Based Compensation

ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee services are acquired. Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options, and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period).

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50, “Equity – Based Payments to Non-Employees.” Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.

The Company had no stock-based compensation plans as of ~~April~~October 3031, 2022.

The Company’s stock-based compensation for the ~~period~~periods ended ~~April~~October 3031, 2022 and October 31, 2021 was $0 for both periods.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 is amended by ASU 2018-01, ASU2018-10, ASU 2018-11, ASU 2018-20 and ASU 2019-01, which FASB issued in January 2018, July 2018, July 2018, December 2018 and March 2019, respectively (collectively, the amended ASU 2016-02). The amended ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet a right-of-use asset, representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, and a lease liability for all leases with terms greater than 12 months. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed from current GAAP. The amended ASU 2016-02 retains a distinction between finance leases (i.e. capital leases under current GAAP) and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases will be substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases under current GAAP. The amended ASU 2016-02 also requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures designed to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. A modified retrospective transition approach is permitted to be used when an entity adopts the amended ASU 2016-02, which includes a number of optional practical expedients that entities may elect to apply.

We have no assets and or leases and do not believe we will be impacted in the foreseeable future by the newly adopted accounting standard(s) mentioned above.

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Note 3 - Going Concern

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Company demonstrates adverse conditions that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for one year following the issuance of these financial statements. These adverse conditions are negative financial trends, specifically operating loss, working capital deficiency, and other adverse key financial ratios.

The Company has not established any source of revenue to cover its operating costs. Management plans to fund operating expenses with related party contributions to capital. There is no assurance that management's plan will be successful. 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 that the Company cannot continue as a going concern.

Note 4 - Income Taxes

The Company has not recognized an income tax benefit for its operating losses generated based on uncertainties concerning its ability to generate ~~taxable~~ taxable income in future periods. The tax benefit for the period presented is offset by a valuation allowance established against deferred ~~tax~~ tax assets arising from the net operating losses, the realization of which could not be considered more likely than not. In future periods, tax benefits and related deferred tax assets will be recognized when management considers realization of such amounts to be more likely than not. As of April 30, 2022, the Company has incurred a net loss of approximately $4575,~~994~~416 which resulted in a net operating loss ~~for~~ for income tax purposes. The loss results in a deferred tax asset of approximately $915,~~659~~837 at the effective statutory rate of 21%. The deferred tax asset has been offset by an equal valuation allowance. Given our inception on July 30, 2021, and our fiscal year end of July 31, ~~2021~~2022, we have completed only ~~one~~two taxable fiscal ~~year~~years.

Note 5 - Commitments and Contingencies

The Company follows ASC 450-20, Loss Contingencies, to report accounting for contingencies. Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated. There were no commitments or contingencies as of ~~April~~October 3031, 2022.

Note 6 - Shareholder Equity

Preferred Stock

The authorized preferred stock of the Company consists of 520,000,000 shares with a par value of $0.001. There were no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding as of ~~April~~October 3031, 2022 and July 31, ~~2021~~2022.

Common Stock

The authorized common stock of the Company consists of ~~200~~480,000,000 shares with a par value of $0.001. There were no176,285,321 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of ~~April~~October 3031, 2022 and July 31, ~~2021~~2022.

During the period ended July 31, 2021, our sole director, Sylvester Lee Crawford, paid expenses on behalf of the Company totaling $960. These payments are considered as a loan to the Company which is noninterest-bearing, unsecured, and payable on demand.

Office Space

We utilize the home office space and equipment of our management at no cost.

Note 8 - Subsequent Events

~~Management has reviewed financial transactions for the Company subsequent to the period ended April 30, 2022 and has found that there was nothing material to disclose except for the following:~~None.

On May 23, 2022, the Company transmuted its business plan from that of a blank check shell company to a business combination related shell company with a holding company formation pursuant to a reorganization with Benchmark Energy Corporation.

The constituent corporations in the Reorganization were Benchmark Energy Corporation (“BMRK”), the Company and GPL Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”). Our director is and was the sole director/officer of each constituent corporation in the Reorganization.

Pursuant to the reorganization, the Company issued 1,000 common shares of its common stock to Predecessor and Merger Sub issued 1,000 shares of its common stock to the Company immediately prior to the Reorganization. Immediately prior to the merger, the Company was a wholly owned direct subsidiary of BMRK and Merger Sub was a wholly owned and direct subsidiary of the Company. The legal effective date of the Reorganization was May 23, 2022 (the “Effective Time”). At the Effective Time, Predecessor was merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger), and Predecessor was the surviving corporation. Each share of Predecessor common stock (BMRK) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be (and subsequently was) converted into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Successor common stock.

Each share of Predecessor’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Successor common stock. The control shareholder of Successor is GPL Holdings, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company. Sylvester L. Crawford, our sole director is the sole member of GPL Holdings, LLC and is therefore deemed to be the indirect and beneficial holder of a total of 150,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company representing approximately 85.81% voting control of the Company. Mr. Crawford is the same officer/director of the Predecessor and Merger Sub. Yantis Family Trust owns 5.673 % voting control. There are no other shareholders not already disclosed or any officer/director holding at least 5% of the outstanding voting shares of the Company. Currently, there are approximately 176,285,321 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding of the issuer.

On May 23, 2022, after the completion of the Holding Company Reorganization, we cancelled all of the stock we held in resulting in Benchmark Energy Corporation as a stand-alone company. Pursuant to the holding company merger agreement and effects of merger, all of the assets and liabilities, if any, remain with Benchmark Energy Corporation after the Reorganization. Mr. Sylvester Crawford, the Director of Benchmark Energy Corporation, did not discover any assets of BMRK from the time he was appointed Director until the completion of the Reorganization and subsequent separation of BMRK as a stand-alone company.

The Company believes that the Reorganization, deemed effective on May 23, 2022, was not a transaction of the type described in subparagraph (a) of Rule 145 under the Securities Act of 1933 and the consummation of the Reorganization will not be deemed to involve an “offer”, “offer to sell”, “offer for sale” or “sale” within the meaning of Section 2(3) of the Securities Act of 1933. The Reorganization was consummated without the vote or consent of the Company’s stockholders. In addition, the provisions of NRS 92A.180 did not provide a stockholder of the Company with appraisal rights in connection with the Reorganization. The Company believes that in the absence of any right of any of the Company’s stockholders to vote with respect to the Reorganization or to insist that their shares be purchased for fair value, the Reorganization could not be deemed to involve an “offer” “offer to sell”; or “sale” within the meaning of Section 2(3) of the Securities Act of 1933.”

Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.

Company Overview

Corporate History

GPL Holdings, Inc. (we, us, our, or the "Company") was incorporated by Sylvester Lee Crawford on July 30, 2021 in the State of Nevada.

On July 30, 2021, Sylvester ~~Crawford~~Lee Crawford was appointed Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Director of GPL Holdings, Inc.

On May 2312, 2022, the Company ~~transmuted~~filed Amended ~~its~~and ~~business~~Restated ~~plan from~~Articles ~~that~~ of aIncorporation ~~blank~~with ~~check~~the ~~shell~~Nevada ~~company~~Secretary toof aState. ~~business~~Amongst ~~combination~~other ~~related~~changes, ~~shell~~the ~~company~~authorized ~~with~~shares awere ~~holding company formation pursuant to a reorganization with Benchmark Energy Corporation~~amended.

AsOn ~~of April~~May 3023, 2022, the Company, ~~had~~or ~~not~~“Successor”, transmuted ~~yet~~its ~~commenced~~business ~~any~~plan ~~operations~~from that of a blank check shell company to a business combination related shell company with a holding company formation pursuant to a reorganization with Benchmark Energy Corporation (“BMRK” or “Predecessor” ). The reason for the change in the nature of our business plan was due to the fact that our sole director believed it to be in the best interest of the Company to complete a holding company reorganization (“Reorganization”) with BMRK. The “Articles of Merger” pursuant to the Reorganization were filed on May 23, 2022 with the Nevada Secretary of State, with an equivalent effective date.

The constituent corporations in the Reorganization were Benchmark Energy Corporation (“BMRK” or “Predecessor”), the Company ~~has~~and ~~elected~~GPL ~~July~~Merger ~~31st~~Sub, asInc. ~~its~~(“Merger ~~year~~Sub”). Our ~~end~~director is and was the sole director/officer of each constituent corporation in the Reorganization.

Each share of Predecessor’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Successor common stock. The controlling shareholder of Successor is GPL Holdings, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company. Sylvester L. Crawford, our sole director, is the sole member of GPL Holdings, LLC and is therefore deemed to be the indirect and beneficial holder of a total of 150,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company representing approximately 85.09% voting control of the Company. Mr. Crawford is the same officer/director of the Predecessor and Merger Sub. Yantis Family Trust owns approximately 5.67% voting control. There are no other shareholders not already disclosed or any officer/director holding at least 5% of the outstanding voting shares of the Company. Currently, there are 176,285,321 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding of the issuer.

The Company intends to serve as a vehicle to affect an asset acquisition, merger, exchange of capital stock or other business combination with a domestic or foreign business. The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by, or under the supervision of, Sylvester Lee Crawford, the sole officer and director of the Company. As of this date, the Company has not entered into any definitive agreement with any party, nor have there been any specific discussions with any potential business combination candidate regarding business opportunities for the Company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash balance is $0 as of ~~April~~October 3031, 2022.

Sylvester Crawford has no formal commitment, arrangement or legal obligation to advance or loan funds to the company. In order to implement our plan of operations for the next twelve-month period, we may require further funding. We have no operating history. After a twelve-month period we may need additional financing but currently do not have any arrangements for such financing.

If we need additional cash and cannot raise it, we will either have to suspend operations until we do raise the cash we need, or cease operations entirely.

~~The Company’s~~During ~~sole~~the ~~officer~~period ~~and~~ended October 31, 2022, our sole director, Sylvester Lee Crawford, paid expenses on behalf of the ~~company~~Company totaling $325,~~675 for the three months ended April 30, 2022~~395. These payments are considered as a loan to the Company which is ~~non~~noninterest-~~interest-~~bearing, unsecured, and payable on demand.

Net Loss

We recorded a net loss of $325,~~675~~395 for the three months ended ~~April~~October 3031, 2022.

Cash flow

For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~April~~October 3031, 2022, we had net cash in used in financing activities in the amount of $4525,~~034~~395. The amount is ~~attributed~~ attributed entirely to a loan provided to the company by related party, Sylvester Crawford.

Going Concern

The Company demonstrates adverse conditions that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for one year following the issuance of these financial statements. These adverse conditions are negative financial trends, no revenue, operating loss, working capital deficiency, and other adverse key financial ratios.

The Company has not established a source of revenue to cover its operating costs.

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 that the Company cannot continue as a going concern.

ITEM 4

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports ~~filed~~ filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods ~~specified~~ specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including Sylvester Crawford, our chief executive officer and ~~our~~ chief financial officer (who is acting as our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principle accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of ~~April~~October 3031, 2022, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of our chief executive officer, ~~who~~Sylvester Crawford, who also serves as our our chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and the operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Our officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report due to material weaknesses identified below.

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of ~~the~~ the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: domination of management by a single individual without adequate compensating controls, lack of a majority of outside directors on board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and ~~monitoring~~ monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives, and lack of an audit committee. These material weaknesses were identified by our Chief Executive Officer, Sylvester Crawford, who also serves as our Chief Financial Officer in connection with the above evaluation.

Inherent limitations on effectiveness of controls

Internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations which include but is not limited to the use of independent professionals for advice and guidance, interpretation of existing and/or changing rules and principles, segregation of management duties, scale of organization, and personnel factors. Internal control over financial reporting is a process which involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis, however these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that have occurred for the fiscal quarter ended ~~April~~October 3031, 2022, that have materially or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
