CERTIFICATION
PURSUANT TO 18 U.S.C. SECTION 1350,
AS
ADOPTED PURSUANT TO SECTION 302 OF THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002
I, Julie
Smolyansky, certify that:
1.
|
I
have reviewed the annual report on Form 10-K of Lifeway Foods,
Inc.;
|
2.
|
Based
on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state
a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of
the circumstances under which such
statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period
covered by
this report;
|
3.
|
Based
on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information
included in this report, fairly
present in all material respects the financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows
of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this
report;
|
4.
|
The
registrant’s other certifying officer(s) and I are responsible for
establishing and maintaining disclosure controls
and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and
15d- 15(e))
and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f))
for the registrant
and have:
|
(a)
|
Designed
such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
disclosure controls and procedures to
be designed under our supervision, to ensure that material
information relating
to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is
made known to us by others within those entities, particularly
during the period in which this report is being
prepared;
|
(b)
|
Designed
such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such
internal control over financial reporting
to be designed under our supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance
with generally accepted accounting
principles;
|
(c)
|
Evaluated
the effectiveness of the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures
and presented in this report
our conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and
procedures, as of the end of
the period covered by this report based on such evaluation;
and
|
(d)
|
Disclosed
in this report any change in the registrant’s internal control
over financial reporting that occurred
during the registrant’s most recent fiscal quarter (the
registrant’s fourth
fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial
reporting; and
|
5.
|
The
registrant’s other certifying officer(s) and I have disclosed, based on
our most recent evaluation of internal
control over financial reporting, to the registrant’s auditors and the
audit committee of the registrant’s
board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent
functions):
|
(a)
|
All
significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or
operation of internal control over financial
reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the
registrant’s ability to
record, process, summarize and report financial information;
and
|
(b)
|
Any
fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other
employees who have a significant
role in the registrant’s internal control over financial
reporting.
