REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
 
of Midwest Energy Emissions Corp.
 
North Dakota
 
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Midwest Energy Emissions Corp. (the “Company”) (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of income, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended and the cumulative period from December 17, 2008 (Inception) to December 31, 2010.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Midwest Energy Emissions Corp. as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended and for the cumulative period from December 17, 2008 to December 31, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed further in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses and has a net capital deficiency. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009

Note 1 - Organization
 
On December 17, 2008, Midwest Emission Control Corp. (a corporation in the development stage) (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of North Dakota.  The Company is engaged in the business of developing and commercializing state of the art control technologies relating to the capture and control of mercury emissions from coal fired broilers in the United States and Canada.  In these notes, the terms “Midwest”, “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our” mean Midwest Emissions Control Corp.
 
Note 2 - Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
 
Development Stage Company
 
The Company is considered to be in the development stage as defined by ASC 915.  The Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to the corporate formation, the raising of capital and attempting to generate customers for the sale of the Company’s products.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term investments with maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents.
 
Research and Development
 
The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred.  Third-party research and development costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Company sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred.  As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company has incurred $125,834 and $24,260, respectively.  In addition, the Company incurred $121,041 in research and development, which was included in cost of revenue for service performed on the “Full Scale Testing of Sorbent Injection Technology on Mercury Control” subaward project from the University of North Dakota Energy and Environmental Research Center.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009

 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. For financial statement purposes, property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of 3 to 5 years.
 
Expenditures for repairs and maintenance which do not materially extend the useful lives of property and equipment are charged to operations.  When property or equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts with the resulting gain or loss reflected in operations.  Management periodically reviews the carrying value of its property and equipment for impairment.
 
Recoverability of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets
 
The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360-10”).  ASC 360-10 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
 
Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period.  The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon forecasted undiscounted cash flows.  Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets would be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition of the asset.  ASC 360-10 also requires assets to be disposed of be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation awards in accordance with the provisions of Share-Based Payment, which requires equity-based compensation, be reflected in the financial statements over the vesting period based on the estimated fair value of the awards. During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had stock-based compensation expense related to issuances of stock to consultants of $63,600 and zero, respectively.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company’s financial instruments include cash and other current liabilities.  The fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying values due to their short maturities.

Foreign Currency Transactions
 
Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the legal entity are re-measured to the functional currency of the legal entity at the period-end exchange rates.  Any associated transactional currency re-measurement gains and losses are recognized in current operations. The reporting functional currency of the Company was U.S. dollars.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2009
 
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company will record revenue from sales in accordance with ASC 605. The criteria for recognition are as follows:
 
1. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
 
2. Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;
 
3. The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and
 
4. Collectability is reasonably assured.
 
Determination of criteria (3) and (4) will be based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments will be provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.
 
The Company earned revenue during 2009 from a subaward project from the University of North Dakota Energy and Environmental Research Center for “Full Scale Testing of Sorbent Injection Technology on Mercury Control.”  The Company recognized revenue for services performed upon completion of the test work and approval of the invoices submitted to the University of North Dakota Energy and Environment Research Center.
 
Basic and Diluted Loss Per Common Share
 
Basic net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution from common stock equivalents, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants.  There were no dilutive potential common shares as of December 31, 2010. Because the Company has incurred net losses and there are no potential dilutive shares, basic and diluted loss per common share are the same.
 
Subsequent Events
 
During May 2009 and February 2010, FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) issued new authoritative pronouncements regarding recognized and non-recognized subsequent events.  This guidance establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued.
 
Recent Issued Accounting Standards

In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-09 which amends ASC 855. FASB 2010-09 defines the term “SEC Filer” and eliminates the requirement that an SEC filer disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This change was made to alleviate potential conflicts between ASC 855-10 and the reporting requirements of the SEC. FASB 2010-09 was effective immediately, but is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Recent Issued Accounting Standards

In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-09 which amends ASC 855. FASB 2010-09 defines the term “SEC Filer” and eliminates the requirement that an SEC filer disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This change was made to alleviate potential conflicts between ASC 855-10 and the reporting requirements of the SEC. FASB 2010-09 was effective immediately, but is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued Update No. 2010-08 “Technical Corrections to Various Topics” (“2010-08”). 2010-08 represents technical corrections to SEC paragraphs within various sections of the Codification. Management is currently evaluating whether these changes will have any material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
In May 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-19 (“ASU 2010-19”), Foreign Currency (Topic 830): Foreign Currency Issues: Multiple Foreign Currency Exchange Rates. The amendments in this update are effective as of the announcement date of March 18, 2010. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-19 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-17 (“ASU 2010-17”), Revenue Recognition-Milestone Method (Topic 605): Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition. The amendments in this Update are effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. If a company elects early adoption and the period of adoption is not the beginning of the entity’s fiscal year, the entity should apply the amendments retrospectively from the beginning of the year of adoption. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-17 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

There were various other updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 3 - Going Concern
 
The accompanying financial statements as of December 31, 2010 have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. From the period of inception (December 17, 2008) through March 31, 2011, the Company has experienced a net loss, negative cash flows from operations and has an accumulated deficit of $939,045.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management intends to raise additional debt and/or equity financing to fund future operations.  There is no assurance that its plan can be implemented; or that the results will be of a sufficient level necessary to meet the Company’s ongoing cash needs.  No assurances can be given that the Company can obtain sufficient working capital through borrowings or that the continued implementation of its business plan will generate sufficient revenues in the future to sustain ongoing operations.
 
The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Note 4 - Advances Receivable – Related Party
 
From time to time, the Company advances funds to the Company’s director and majority stockholder.  As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had advances totaling zero and $32,515, respectively from a director of the Company. These advances are non-interest bearing, have no fixed terms of repayment and are unsecured.
