PART I
Item 1. Business
Incorporated in 1983, MPM Technologies, Inc. ("MPM" or "the Company") as of year
ended December 31, 2007, had three wholly owned subsidiaries: AirPol, Inc.
("AirPol"), Nupower, Inc. ("Nupower") and MPM Mining Inc. ("Mining"). For the
year ended December 31, 2007, AirPol was the only revenue generating entity.
AirPol operates in the air pollution control industry. It sells air pollution
control systems to Fortune 500 and other large industrial companies in the U.S
and worldwide.
The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, NuPower, Inc., is engaged in
the development and commercialization of a waste-to-energy process known as
Skygas(TM). These efforts are largely through NuPower's participation in Nupower
Partnership in which MPM has a 58.21% partnership interest. NuPower Partnership
owns 85% of the Skygas Venture. In addition to its partnership interest through
NuPower Inc, MPM also owns 15% of the Venture.
Mining operations were discontinued several years ago. In 1998, MPM's Board of
Directors decided to sell the mining properties and the related buildings and
equipment. In early 2002 the Board of Directors, based upon the increase in
precious metals prices, decided to hold the properties as an investment.
Management is actively seeking a joint-venture partner with the necessary
financial abilities to further explore and develop the properties thereby
greatly enhancing the company's investment.
AIRPOL, INC.
Effective July 1, 1998, the Company acquired certain of the assets and assumed
certain of the liabilities of part of a division of FLS miljo, Inc. The
agreement called for the Company to pay $300,000 stock and $234,610 in cash. The
transaction was accounted for as a purchase.
AirPol designs, engineers, supplies and services air pollution control systems
for Fortune 500 and other environmental and industrial companies.
The technologies of AirPol utilize wet and dry scrubbers, wet electrostatic
precipitators and venturi absorbers to control air pollution. AirPol brings over
30 years experience through its technologies and employees.
A typical air pollution control system consists of the following components:
1. A gas duct from the polluting process equipment that can be a boiler,
kiln, incinerator or dry;
2. A scrubber, or a wet electrostatic precipitator for dust removal
purposes;
3. An acid gas absorber for the removal of acid gas from the flue gas;
4. An induced draft fan to provide suction to draw the flue gas through
the air pollution control system; and
5. A stack for the discharge of cleaned flue gas into the atmosphere.
In building the systems, AirPol personnel conduct engineering design work, and
produce design drawings for the fabrication of steel or plastic vessels, steel
supports and access facilities. AirPol personnel also prepare equipment
specifications for needed equipment such as spray nozzles, pumps, fans,
instrumentation and controls.
AirPol personnel then retain a fabricator for the fabrication of the system's
components. AirPol personnel arrange for delivery of these to the customer's
location. Normally, AirPol is not responsible for the installation of the
systems. In this case, AirPol personnel will arrange for an erection supervisor
to make sure the installation meets AirPol quality standards. If AirPol is
responsible for the installation, they will hire mechanical and electrical
contractors to perform the installation.
NUPOWER, INC.
The Company holds a 58.21% interest in Nupower Partnership through its ownership
of Nupower. No other operations were conducted through Nupower. Nupower
Partnership is engaged in the development and commercialization of a
waste-to-energy process. This is an innovative technology for the disposal and
gasification of carbonaceous wastes such as municipal solid waste, municipal
sewage sludge, pulp and paper mill sludge, auto fluff, medical waste and used
tires. The process converts solid and semi-solid wastes into a clean-burning
medium BTU gas that can be used for steam production for electric power
generation. The gas may also be a useful building block for downstream
conversion into valuable chemicals. Nupower Partnership owns 85% of the Skygas
Venture. In addition to its partnership interest, MPM owns 15% of the Venture.
MPM MINING, INC.
The company owns 7.5 patented claims and 2 unpatented claims and leases 7
patented claims with options to purchase on approximately 300 acres in Montana's
historical Emery Mining District. It also owns a 200-ton per day onsite
floatation mill. Companies such as Exxon Corporation, Freeport McMoran Gold
Company and Hecla Mining Company in addition to MPM Mining have conducted
extensive exploration in the area. In 1998, the Board of Directors decided to
dispose of the mining properties but later rescinding that decision in early
2002 deciding to hold the properties as an investment. Management believes that
the investment would greatly increase with the addition of a joint venture
partner. To that end management is actively seeking a joint venture partner with
the necessary financial abilities to further explore and develop the properties.
Following several geologist reports, assays and recommendations, the company
built a 200 ton per day ball mill using floatation tanks to process screened and
crushed ore. It took two years to build, equip and test the mill at a cost of
approximately $800,000. The mill is in operable condition with all equipment in
good repair.
The company has Rake classifier ship, Wilfley Concentrate table, Marcy ball mill
5'x4', flotation machines and equipment, Denver water pumps, 3 deck concentrate
table, Hardinge ball mill and Elmco filter press. There is an office trailer and
living quarters for personnel including a deep well and septic system. There are
two storage ponds and a creek running through the property.
MPM has spent over $1.3 million on exploration and drilling programs including
work done by Exxon, Freeport McMoran, and most recently Hecla Mining Company.
Hecla's drilling results were extremely encouraging in that some drill holes
confirmed the possibility of open pit mining and that certain mineral deposits
might be enlarged and improved in grade by further drilling. Additionally, there
is considerable evidence of significant mineralized materials awaiting drilling
programs.
The company has utilized reverse circulation and diamond core drilling
techniques in five different programs the total of which are 182 drilled holes
averaging 90' in depth. Additionally, 15 trenches 18' deep and 6' wide were dug.
All were assayed with all showing mineralization. There have been 5 exploration
programs to date:
MPM Mining 6 drill holes 1983-84.
MPM Mining 13 drill holes and 15 trenches 1986
Freeport McMoran Gold Co. 78 drill holes 1988-89
Pegasus Gold Corp 3 drill holes 1990
Hecla Mining Co. 82 drill holes 1991-92

The properties are in mineralized zones containing gold, silver, lead and zinc.
Located on the properties are former mine shafts, tunnels, mineral stockpiles
and stopes (in tunnels) with valuable low-grade mineralization. All areas have
been trenched, core drilled and assayed to prove mineralization. The properties
contain both underground and near surface minerals. Additionally there are 8
stockpiles with good assayed results of mineralization. The old time miners were
after high-grade ore and not interested in lower grade mineral surrounding the
vein. The mineral taken from shafts, tunnels and around the high-grade vein was
transported to these stockpiles.
The total cost of purchasing the properties, leasing properties, building and
equipping the ball mill, infrastructures and bringing power line to replace
generators is estimated at $4,000,000. Current expenses that include lease
payments and taxes are under $10,000 per year. In the past power was supplied by
two large capacity generators. At a time the mill is reopened power lines will
be brought in from Deer Lodge, Montana at an estimated cost of $200,000. A deep
well and Sterret Creek supplies all water needs.
MANAGEMENT'S ASSESSMENT OF INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
The management of MPM Technologies, Inc. is responsible for establishing and
maintaining adequate internal controls and procedures for the preparation of
financial reports. Accordingly, comprehensive procedures are in place designed
to provide reasonable assurance that the Company's transactions are properly
authorized, the Company's assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or
improper use, and the Company's transactions are properly recorded and reported
to facilitate the preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
The Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer believe that, for the year ended December 31, 2007, internal
controls and procedures were effective in insuring that financial information
was properly recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely and
accurate manner. This includes reports filed under the Securities and Exchange
Act of 1934.
The Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer confirm that there were no changes in the Company's internal
controls over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2007 that
have materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect the
Company's internal control over financial reporting.
The Company's Audit Committee is responsible for monitoring the Company's
accounting and reporting practices. Management regularly reviews internal
controls and procedures for financial reporting and considers the independent
auditors' recommendations concerning the Company's internal controls and takes
steps to implement those recommendations that are appropriate in the
circumstances.
FACTORS MANAGEMENT USED TO IDENTIFY REPORTABLE SEGMENTS
Management considers MPM's reportable segments to be business units that offer
different products. The business segments may be reportable because they are
each managed separately, or they design and engineer distinct products with
different applications in the air pollution control field. Airpol operates in
the air pollution control field. MPM's other segments are essentially
non-operational at the present time, and, accordingly have been aggregated for
reporting purposes. Accordingly, for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006,
the Company operated in one segment, and there is no separate segment reporting
required.
BACKLOG
MPM had no backlog of orders or work in progress at AirPol at December 31, 2007.
There is currently no other backlog of orders for any of MPM's other businesses.
WASTE-TO-ENERGY
MPM's waste-to-energy process consists of an innovative technology known as
"Skygas". The process is used in the disposal and gasification of various forms
of non-metallic wastes. MPM continues to negotiate with interested entities for
the manufacture and operation of Skygas units. These negotiations are ongoing,
and MPM management is hopeful that there will be formal agreements in place
during 2008.
COMPETITIVE CONDITIONS
AirPol operates in extremely competitive environments. There are a number of
potential competitors for every job the companies bid on. The number of bidders
ranges from two or three to as many as seven or eight depending on the potential
customer and the work to be performed. The parts and service side of the
business tends to be somewhat less competitive since the parts and service work
are generally for units that have previously been sold and/or installed by the
companies.
There are a significant number of persons and companies developing or have
developed any number of waste-to-energy systems. Management of MPM believes that
its development of Skygas(TM) as a non-polluting and energy efficient system
will give it the necessary competitive edge in this area.
Due to the large number of persons and companies engaged in exploration for and
production of mineralized material, there is a great degree of competition in
the mining part of the business.
SEASONAL VARIATIONS
The impact of seasonal changes is minimal on the air pollution control business
of AirPol. There may be some limitations on the installation of the air
pollution control units when the weather is more severe in the winter months in
those areas of the world where the weather is significantly colder in that
season. There have been, however, no discernible variations to date to indicate
that the business is subject to seasonal variations.
There are currently no seasonal influences on the ongoing development of the
Skygas(TM) process. It is also not expected that there will be any seasonal
variations when the Skygas(TM) units are produced.
EMPLOYEES
At December 31, 2007, MPM had three employees and there were four employees at
AirPol. MPM believes that its relations with its employees are good.
Item 2. Properties
AirPol leases its office space under a lease that expires in August of 2008. MPM
has no property related to its waste-to-energy operations. MPM believes that its
existing facilities are adequate for the current level of operations.
The MPM Mining property is located in the Emery Mining District of Powell
County, Montana approximately seven miles northeast of Deer Lodge, Montana. A
road maintained by the county runs though or nearby company properties, mill and
infrastructures. All titles to the company's properties are secured. All leased
claims are up to date and paid in full.
The company owns 7.5 patented claims, 2 unpatented claims and leases 7 patented
claims. Each leased claim contains an option to purchase. The properties are in
mineralized zones containing gold, silver, lead and zinc. Located on the
properties are former mine shafts, tunnels, mineral stockpiles and stopes (in
tunnels) with valuable low-grade mineralization. All areas have been trenched,
core drilled and assayed to prove mineralization.
These claims amount to approximately 300 acres of land in the Emery Mining
District, Powell County Montana. MPM controls eighteen former mine sites that
have been inactive since 1930. Each of these has old adits, tunnels and mineral
stockpiles of known mineralized material. All testing and metallurgical work has
been completed. As noted above, the Board of Directors has instructed management
to hold these properties as an investment. Management believes there is interest
in the mining properties and is currently investigating various joint venture
options.

Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
In addition to reading this section, you should read the consolidated financial
statements that begin on page F-1. That section contains all detailed financial
information including our results of operations.
a) Results of Operations
MPM acquired certain of the assets and assumed certain of the liabilities of a
part of a division of FLS miljo, Inc. as of July 1, 1998. MPM formed AirPol to
run this air pollution control business. The results of operations for the years
ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 include the operations of AirPol.
For the year ended December 31, 2007, MPM had consolidated revenues of
$2,715,205. Consolidated revenues for 2006 were $1,729,257. MPM had a net loss
for the year 2007 of $2,301,682, or $0.37 per share. MPM's net loss for 2006 was
$1,651,804, or $0.49 per share. Revenues were again hurt by the lack of
enforcement of clean air laws. Air pollution control companies depend heavily on
the enforcement of clean air laws. Parts and service revenues increased in 2007
over 2006 as the company recovered from the loss in 2006 of a major after-market
customer.
MPM's management continues to work to bring the Company to profitability. Other
businesses are being evaluated to consider moving the Company's business toward
other more profitable ventures. There have been significant consolidations in
the air pollution control industry in the past few years. MPM management's
short- term goal is to operate a lean, profitable company.
2007 COMPARED TO 2006
Revenues increased $985,948 (or 57%) from $1,729,257 in 2006 to $2,715,205 in
2007. This included an increase in project revenues of $714,117, while revenues
from parts and service increased by $271,831. The increase in project revenues
was due primarily to increased demand for air pollution control systems stemming
from somewhat improved enforcement of the government's air pollution control
laws. Parts and service revenues, which include sales of spare parts used to
maintain existing Air Pol installations, and sales of services which customers
use to also maintain the existing systems, increased because of the recovery of
that side of the business after an unusually slow 2006. The net loss for 2007
was $2,301,682 or $0.37 per share compared to $1,651,804 or $0.49 per share in
2006.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $137,948 from $1,495,431
in 2006 to $1,633,379 in 2007. This increase is due primarily to an increase in
payroll costs.
Loss on settlements increased $862,131 from $5,861 in 2006, to $867,992 in 2007.
During the first quarter 2007, MPM incurred a one-time settlement expense of
$1,050,000, related to a project for which AirPol was a subcontractor, and whose
general contractor's systems were found to be faulty. The disputes went through
mediation and AirPol management decided to settle the disputes rather than incur
the costs of arbitration. Additional costs were also attributable to this
settlement loss in 2007.
The net loss in 2007 includes interest expense of $653,569 as compared to
$798,068 in 2006. This is a result of increased borrowings and no debt
repayments.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During 2007, funds for operations were provided primarily by loans from an
insurance company and an officer/director. Current cash reserves and continuing
operations of AirPol are not believed to be adequate to fund MPM and its
subsidiaries' operations for the foreseeable future. MPM management is
considering alternative sources of capital such as private placements, other
stock offerings and loans from shareholders and officers to fund its current
business and expand in other related areas through more acquisitions.
Following is a summary from MPM's consolidated statements of cash flows:
Year ended
December 31,
------------
2007 2006
---- ----
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities $(1,660,781) $ 148,029
Net cash used in investing activities $ (32,000) $ (13,201)
Net cash provided by financing activities $ 1,296,801 $ 303,600
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents $ (395,980) $ 438,428
|
Net cash used in operating activities in 2007 was due to the net loss of the
Company and decreases in billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on
projects in progress. The net cash provided by operating activities in 2006 was
due to collections of accounts receivable, non-cash costs such as depreciation
and amortization, and increases in billings in excess of costs and estimated
earnings on projects in progress.
The net cash provided by financing activities in 2007 and 2006 of $1,296,801 and
$303,600, respectively, were due to loans from an insurance company and related
parties.
The Company has a working capital deficiency of $11,630,782. Current liabilities
include $5,988,604 of related party debt which management believes can be
deferred beyond twelve months. Also included in current liabilities is
$5,180,203 of a note payable which management is currently renegotiating.
Management is optimistic that the lender will agree to terms that will extend
the payment and allow the Company to meet its obligations and continue business
for the next twelve months. There is no guarantee of the outcome of these plans.
MPM may need to raise additional capital in the future to expand its business
and develop mineral properties. MPM cannot be certain that additional financing
will be available when and to the extent required or that, if available, it will
be on acceptable terms. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms,
MPM may not be able to fund its operations, develop or enhance its products or
services or respond to competitive pressures.
APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
In preparing our financial statements we are required to formulate working
policies regarding valuation of our assets and liabilities and to develop
estimates of those values. In our preparation of the financial statements for
2007, there were at least two estimates made which was (a) subject to a high
degree of uncertainty and (b) material to our results. These estimates were our
determination, detailed in the footnotes to the financial statements on our
Mineral Properties and Income Taxes, and our valuation allowances, if any, on
them. We have not reserved our mineral properties but we have recorded a
valuation allowance for the full value of the deferred tax asset created by our
net operating loss carry forward. The primary reason for our determination of
our mineral properties is our knowledge of increasing market prices for precious
metals, our expectation that such precious metals are contained within these
properties, and our current cost and carrying value of the properties are less
than market value of the land alone. We have reserved an allowance against our
deferred tax assets from our net operating loss carryforwards due to the lack of
certainty as to whether MPM will carry on profitable operations in the future in
order to utilize such tax benefits before they expire.
We made no material changes to our critical accounting policies in connection
with the preparation of financial statements for 2007.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGMENTS
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably
likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition or results
of operations.
IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, "Fair Value Measurements", which
defines fair value, creates a framework for measuring fair value in generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), and expands disclosures about fair
value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for
fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We will adopt SFAS 157 as of
January 1, 2008, as required. SFAS 157 is not expected to have a material impact
on our financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities", including an amendment of SFAS 115. SFAS 159
permits all entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain
other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair
value at specified election dates. SFAS 159 does not affect any existing
accounting literature that requires certain assets and liabilities to be carried
at fair value. The objective of SFAS 159 is to improve financial reporting by
providing companies with the opportunity to mitigate the volatility in reported
earnings caused by measuring related and liabilities differently without having
to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The associated unrealized gains
and losses on the items for which the fair value option has been elected shall
be reported in earnings. SFAS 159 is effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We will adopt SFAS 159 on
its effective date. Based on the provisions of SFAS 159, the difference between
the carrying value and fair value will be recognized at the adoption date as a
cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. SFAS
159 is not expected to have an effect on our financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141(R), "Business Combinations". SFAS
141(R) establishes principles and requirements for an acquirer, which improves
the relevance, representational faithfulness and comparability of information
provided by a reporting entity in its financial reports about business
combinations and its effects. SFAS 141(R) is effective prospectively to business
combinations with an acquisition date on or after the beginning of the first
annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. We are unable
to currently estimate the impact of SFAS 141(R) on our financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements (an amendment of ARB No. 51)". SFAS 160
establishes accounting and reporting standards designed to improve the
relevance, comparability and transparency of the financial information provided
in a reporting entity's consolidated financial statements. SFAS 160 requires
that ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties, other than the parent,
to be clearly identified, labeled and presented in the consolidated balance
sheet within the equity, but separate from the parent's equity; net income
attributable to the parent and the noncontrolling interest to be clearly
identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of
operations; changes in the parent's ownership interest to be accounted for as
equity transactions, if a subsidiary is deconsolidated and any retained
noncontrolling equity investment to be measured at fair value; and that entities
provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the
interests of the parent and noncontrolling owners.
SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning on or after
December 15, 2008. We cannot currently estimate the impact of SFAS 160 on our
financial statements.
IMPACT OF INFLATION
Although inflation has been low in recent years, it is still a factor in our
economy and MPM continually seeks ways to mitigate its impact. To the extent
permitted by competition, AirPol passes increased costs on to its customers by
increasing prices over time. Management estimates that the impact of inflation
on the revenues for 2007 was negligible.
Since MPM did not engage in any mining operations, sales of metals or metal
bearing ores, and was in the development stage of the waste-to-energy process,
inflation did not materially impact the financial performance of those segments
of the MPM's business. Management estimates that the operations of MPM were only
nominally impacted by inflation.

Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
MPM Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of MPM Technologies,
Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years
ended December 31, 2007 and 2006. 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 also 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 consolidated financial position of MPM Technologies,
Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007, and the consolidated results of
their operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in the notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has not been able to generate any
significant revenues and has a working capital deficiency of $11,630,782 at
December 31, 2007. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern without the raising of additional debt
and/or equity financing to fund operations. Management's plans in regard to
these matters are described in the notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

MPM TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Nature of Operations, Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
Nature of Operations
MPM Technologies, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated as Okanogan Development,
Inc. on July 18, 1983, under the laws of the State of Washington. It was formed
primarily for the purpose of investing in real estate and interests in real
estate. On April 25, 1985, the Company combined with MADD Exploration (MADD), a
Montana partnership, and changed its name to Montana Precision Mining, Ltd. In
August 1995, the Company changed its name to MPM Technologies, Inc. As a result
of the combination with MADD, the Company acquired mining properties located in
Powell County, Montana. The Company is not currently engaged in exploration or
developmental mining activities in regard to these properties.
AirPol, a wholly owned subsidiary, was acquired on July 2, 1998 (See Note 1).
AirPol designs, engineers, supplies and services air pollution control systems.
AirPol's systems utilize wet and dry scrubbers, wet electrostatic precipitators
and venturi absorbers to control air pollution.
NuPower, a 58.21% owned partnership, is engaged in the research and development
of an electrothermal gasification process which will be utilized primarily in
the waste-to-energy field, although the process is expected to have applications
in other areas. This partnership was formed in 1986.
Skygas, an 85% directly and indirectly owned joint venture, was formed in 1990
for the purpose of commercializing the Skygas technology, which is a
disposal/gasification process that converts solid and semi-solid wastes into
clean, medium BTU syntheses gas. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, participants
and interests owned in the Skygas venture included: NuPower (a 58.2% owned
subsidiary of the Company), 70%, MPM Technologies, Inc., 15%, and USF Smogless
of Milan, Italy (a subsidiary of United States Filter Corporation which also
owns shares of the Company totaling 6.83% of the common stock outstanding), 15%.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and the following subsidiaries and other entities controlled by the
Company: AirPol, Inc. (AirPol), MPM Mining, Inc., NuPower, Inc., NuPower (a
General Partnership) and Skygas. Intercompany accounts and transactions among
the companies have been eliminated.
Segment Reporting
Management considers MPM's reportable segments to be business units that offer
different products. The business segments may be reportable because they are
each managed separately, or they design and engineer distinct products with
different applications in the air pollution control field. AirPol operates in
the air pollution control field. MPM's other segments are essentially
non-operational at the present time, and, accordingly have been aggregated for
reporting purposes. Accordingly, for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006,
the Company operated in one segment, and there is no separate segment reporting
required.

MPM TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern. As of December 31, 2007, the
Company has a working capital deficiency, an accumulated deficit, and has not
been able to generate any significant revenues. These conditions raise
substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going
concern. The Company plans to raise additional capital in the future. The
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company has a working capital
deficiency of $11,630,782. Current liabilities include $5,988,604 of related
party debt which management believes can be deferred beyond twelve months. Also
included in current liabilities is $5,180,203 of a note payable which management
is currently renegotiating. Management is optimistic that the lender will agree
to terms that will extend the payment and allow the Company to meet its
obligations and continue business for the next twelve months. There is no
guarantee of the outcome of these plans.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
Contract revenue is recognized on the percentage-of-completion method in the
ratio that costs incurred bear to estimated costs at completion. Costs include
all direct material and labor costs, and indirect costs, such as supplies,
tools, repairs and depreciation. Selling, general and administrative costs are
charged to expense as incurred. Other revenue is recorded on the basis of
shipment or performance of services or shipment of products. Provision for
estimated contract losses, if any, is made in the period that such losses are
determined. During 2007 and 2006, no amounts were recognized for estimated
contract losses.
The asset "costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings" represents
revenues recognized in excess of amounts invoiced. The liability "billings in
excess of costs and estimated earnings" represents invoices in excess of
revenues recognized.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation.
For financial reporting purposes, the costs of plant and equipment are
depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from
three to fifteen years, using the straight-line method.
Purchased Intangible
Purchased intangible represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair
value of net assets acquired and is being amortized on a straight-line basis
over its estimated period of future benefit of ten years. The Company
periodically evaluates the recoverability of purchased intangible. The
measurement of possible impairment is based primarily on the Company's ability
to recover the unamortized balance of the purchased intangible from expected
future operating cash flows on an undiscounted basis.
Asset Impairment
The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for financial impairment, and
continues to evaluate them as events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying amount of such assets may not be fully recoverable. The Company
evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets by measuring the carrying
amount of the assets against the estimated undiscounted future cash flows
associated with them. At the time such evaluations indicate that the future
undiscounted cash flows of certain long-lived assets are not sufficient to
recover the carrying value of such assets, the assets are adjusted to their fair
values.
F-8
MPM TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes".
SFAS No. 109 uses the asset and liability method so that deferred taxes are
determined based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the
financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities given the provisions
of enacted tax laws and tax rates. Deferred income tax expense or benefit is
based on the changes in the financial statement basis versus the tax bases in
the Company's assets or liabilities from period to period.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. Advertising expense
was $3,675 and $586 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions.
Those estimates and assumptions 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 revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock, stock options and stock warrants issued for
services and compensation by employees under the fair value method. For
non-employees, the fair market value of the Company's stock is measured on the
date of stock issuance or the date an option/warrant is granted. The Company
determined the fair market value of the warrants/options issued under the
Black-Scholes Pricing Model. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the
provisions of SFAS 123(R), SHARE-BASED PAYMENT, which establishes accounting for
equity instruments exchanged for employee services. Under the provisions of SFAS
123(R), share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on
the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee's
requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to a concentration
of credit risk, consist of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its
cash and cash equivalents with various high quality financial institutions;
these deposits may exceed federally insured limits at various times throughout
the year. The Company provides credit in the normal course of business. The
Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains
allowances for doubtful accounts based on factors surrounding the credit risk of
specific customers, historical trends, and other information.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2007 for
cash equivalents, investments, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate
fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial
instruments. The fair value of notes payable and long-term debt approximates
their carrying value as the stated or discounted rates of the debt reflect
recent market conditions.
F-9
MPM TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Limitations
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant
market information and information about the financial statement. These
estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of
significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes
in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of balance sheet classification and the statements of cash flows,
the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Warranty Reserve
The Company warranties its pollution control units for defects in design,
materials, and workmanship generally for a period of 18 months from date sold or
12 months from date placed in service. Provision for estimated warranty costs is
recorded upon completion of the project and periodically adjusted to reflect
actual experience.
Earnings Per Share
SFAS No. 128 requires dual presentation of basic earnings per share and diluted
earnings per share on the face of all income statements issued after December
15, 1997 for all entities with complex capital structures. Basic earnings per
share includes no dilution and is calculated by dividing income available to
common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares actually
outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential
dilution of securities (such as stock options, warrants and securities
convertible into common stock) that could share in the earnings of an entity. At
December 31, 2007 and 2006, outstanding options to purchase 2,165,675 shares of
the Company's common stock were not included in the computation of diluted
earnings per share as their effect would have been antidilutive.
3. Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment consist of the following at December 31, 2007:
Equipment................................... $ 271,437
Furniture and fixtures...................... 31,008
Leasehold improvements...................... 8,321

Depreciation expense charged to operations was $2,500 and $21,283 in 2007 and
2006, respectively.
4. Note Payable and Long-Term Debt
In December 2002, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with an
insurance company. Under the terms of its agreement, the Company could borrow up
to $500,000 at 5.25% per annum, which was increased to $3,000,000 in 2003. As of
December 31, 2007, the Company has $4,326,499 of principal advances and accrued
interest of $853,704 outstanding under the agreement. During the years ended
December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company recorded interest expense of $197,865
and $299,666, respectively. The note is secured by stock and mineral property
held for investment and matured on January 2, 2008. This note payable has not
been paid at maturity and management is currently renegotiating its terms with
the lender. Through the date of this report, no revised terms have been arranged
on this defaulted debt.

5. Related Party Debt
Related party debt consists of advances received from and deferred expenses and
reimbursements to various directors and related parties. At December 31, 2007,
amounts owed these related parties totaled $5,988,604, due on demand. Interest
expense accrued on this related party debt for the year ended December 31, 2007

On December 15, 2006, an officer/director converted $770,000 of advances into
3,080,000 shares of the Company's common stock.
6. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company leases office space and mineral properties under operating leases

required under operating leases that have initial and remaining non-cancellable
terms in excess of one year are as follows: $82,968 for each of the years ending
December 31, 2008 and 2009, and $50,023 for the year ending December 31, 2010.
Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 was $87,356 and
$89,228, respectively.
The Company has entered into an exclusive license rights agreement for
technology to be utilized in its SkyGas venture. Pursuant to the terms of the
agreement, the Company has agreed to pay $72,000 annually through December 31,
2008. The agreement may be terminated by the Company at any time.
In December 2007, the Company entered an agreement with an officer/director
regarding payroll reductions in 2003. Under the terms of the agreement, the
Company will retroactively reimburse the officer/director for salary reductions
from April 2003 if certain conditions are met. These include the profitability
of the Company and its ability to repay the amounts due. Additionally, under the
terms of the agreement, unpaid accrued amounts will bear interest at 8% per
annum beginning January 1, 2008. At December 31, 2007, amounts accrued and
charged to expense for the year was $133,494.
7. Income Taxes
As of December 31, 2007 the significant components of the Company's net deferred
tax asset is as follows:
Net operating loss carryforward...................... $ 5,000,000
Differences between book and tax depreciation........ 20,000
Goodwill and purchase asset adjustments.............. 10,000

As management of the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not
that the Company will realize the benefit of the net deferred tax asset, a
valuation allowance equal to the net deferred tax asset has been established at
December 31, 2007. The valuation allowance increased $782,000 since December 31,
2006.

8. Stockholders' Equity
Stock Option Plan
On May 22, 1989, the shareholders of the Company voted to approve a stock option
plan (the Plan) for selected key employees, officers and directors of the
Company. The Plan is administered by a Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors (the "Committee") consisting of those directors of the Company and
individuals who are elected annually by the Board of Directors to the Committee.
The Board of Directors has chosen one of the Company's directors and one outside
individual to serve on the Committee. No director eligible to receive options
under the Plan may vote upon the granting of an option or Stock Appreciation
Rights (SAR) to himself or herself or upon any decision of the Board of
Directors or the Committee relating to the Plan. Under the Plan, a maximum of
236,667 shares were approved to be granted, which in 2003 was increased by
300,000. Generally, the Plan provides that the terms under which options may be
granted are to be determined by a Committee subject to certain requirements as
follows: (1) the exercise price will not be less than 100% of the market price
per share of the common stock of the Company at the time an Incentive Stock
Option is granted, or as established by the Committee for Non-qualified Stock
Options or Stock Appreciation Rights; and (2) the option purchase price will be
paid in full on the date of purchase.
Qualified stock option activity under the Plan and non-qualified stock option
activity outside the Plan are summarized as follows:

10. Mineral Properties
During 1998, the Board of Directors authorized a plan to dispose of the
Company's mineral properties and related mining assets. In 2001, the Board of
Directors changed this plan to hold the mineral properties as an investment.
Accordingly, the Company has classified these assets as mineral properties held
for investment in its balance sheet at December 31, 2007.
In accordance with guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants, we conducted impairment testing on these assets. Factors
evaluated included whether there was a significant decrease in the market prices
of the assets. This included not only the market price of the unimproved land,
but also the market prices of the precious metals on the land. We also evaluated
whether there was an adverse change in the extent or manner in which the
long-lived asset was being used, or its physical condition. The costs associated
with extracting the precious metals were also evaluated. We also evaluated
whether there were factors that would demonstrate any continuing losses
associated with the long-lived asset, and whether there was an expectation that,
more likely than not, the long-lived asset would be sold or otherwise disposed
of.
After all of these evaluations, management determined that there was no
impairment of these assets, and, accordingly, no provision was necessary to
record any losses on these assets.
11. Prepaid Royalty
During 1994, the Company entered into an agreement to sell certain equipment
related to the SkyGas technology to the inventor of this technology in exchange
for a $275,000 note receivable. The note was collateralized by the equipment
sold. Under the agreement, the note was due in a balloon payment of $275,000 on
December 1, 1995 or at such time the Skygas process is placed into sustainable
commercial production. Additional renewals have not been negotiated and the
Company has recharacterized this former note receivable as prepaid royalties,
recoverable from future revenues resulting from the operation of the equipment.
The balance at December 31, 2007 of $273,000 has been offset against royalties
payable to the estate of the inventor.
12. Related Party Transactions
At December 31, 2007, the Company owed $5,988,604 to an officer/director and
another director. During 2007, an officer/director loaned $145,000 to the
Company. These loans are unsecured and are due on demand.
The Company contracts for its shareholder relations services with an officer of
the Company. The Company incurred expenses to this related party for services in
2007 and 2006 of $55,000 in each year.
As of December 31, 2007, a business owned by the Company's Chief Executive
Officer owed the Company $19,614 from the sale of certain equipment. This amount
is included in accounts receivable.
13. Purchased Intangible
In 1996, the Company issued 133,333 shares of its common stock to acquire an
additional 15% interest in the SkyGas venture. The transaction was recorded at
$675,000 based on the then-fair value of the shares issued. In accordance with
FASB Technical Bulletin No. 84-1, the Company recorded an intangible asset
representing the additional interest purchased in SkyGas's patent and licensing
rights. This amount was fully amortized at December 31, 2007.

14. New Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, "Fair Value Measurements", which
defines fair value, creates a framework for measuring fair value in generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), and expands disclosures about fair
value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for
fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We will adopt SFAS 157 as of
January 1, 2008, as required. SFAS 157 is not expected to have a material impact
on our financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities", including an amendment of SFAS 115. SFAS 159
permits all entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain
other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair
value at specified election dates. SFAS 159 does not affect any existing
accounting literature that requires certain assets and liabilities to be carried
at fair value. The objective of SFAS 159 is to improve financial reporting by
providing companies with the opportunity to mitigate the volatility in reported
earnings caused by measuring related and liabilities differently without having
to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The associated unrealized gains
and losses on the items for which the fair value option has been elected shall
be reported in earnings. SFAS 159 is effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We will adopt SFAS 159 on
its effective date. Based on the provisions of SFAS 159, the difference between
the carrying value and fair value will be recognized at the adoption date as a
cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. SFAS
159 is not expected to have an effect on our financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141(R), "Business Combinations". SFAS
141(R) establishes principles and requirements for an acquirer, which improves
the relevance, representational faithfulness and comparability of information
provided by a reporting entity in its financial reports about business
combinations and its effects. SFAS 141(R) is effective prospectively to business
combinations with an acquisition date on or after the beginning of the first
annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. We are unable
to currently estimate the impact of SFAS 141(R) on our financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements (an amendment of ARB No. 51)". SFAS 160
establishes accounting and reporting standards designed to improve the
relevance, comparability and transparency of the financial information provided
in a reporting entity's consolidated financial statements. SFAS 160 requires
that ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties, other than the parent,
to be clearly identified, labeled and presented in the consolidated balance
sheet within the equity, but separate from the parent's equity; net income
attributable to the parent and the noncontrolling interest to be clearly
identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of
operations; changes in the parent's ownership interest to be accounted for as
equity transactions, if a subsidiary is deconsolidated and any retained
noncontrolling equity investment to be measured at fair value; and that entities
provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the
interests of the parent and noncontrolling owners.
SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning on or after
December 15, 2008. We cannot currently estimate the impact of SFAS 160 on our
financial statements.
15. Loss on Settlements
During 2007, MPM recorded settlements expenses of $867,992. Settlements result
primarily from the payment of $1,050,000 a project for which AirPol was a
subcontractor. The general contractor's systems were found to be faulty, and
ultimately were removed. The customer made claims against the general
contractor. The general contractor then made claims against its subcontractors.
The disputes went through mediation and were about to go to arbitration. AirPol
management decided to settle the disputes rather than incur the costs of
arbitration. AirPol is attempting to recover the losses through its insurance
carrier. There can, however, be no assurances that AirPol will be successful in
its recovery attempts.

16. Joint Venture
On April 11, 2007, MPM announced that it had agreed with Losonoco, Inc. to form
a new joint venture company, Losonoco Skygas, LLC, to develop bio-fuel and
chemical manufacturing facilities based on the Skygas technology for waste
gasification. Losonoco, Inc. builds, owns and operates manufacturing facilities
for ethanol and bio-diesel, and focuses on commercializing technologies that use
waste streams as feedstock for the bio-fuels. Losonoco is acquiring and
re-commissioning a former corn ethanol facility in Florida, and intends to bring
it back into production by building an integrated bio-mass-to-ethanol facility
using the Skygas gasification process.
The joint venture will further develop the Skygas gasification process through
the proposed construction of a 125-ton per day biomass gasifier to be located
and integrated with Losonoco's corn ethanol facility in Florida. Initially, the
Skygas gasifier will provide syngas to replace natural gas used in the ethanol
production process. In the second phase, the syngas will be used to manufacture
ethanol through catalytic conversion.
MPM is transferring its worldwide licenses for the Skygas gasification
technology, and all related engineering, operational data and intellectual
property that it owns. Losonoco will fund the further development of the
technology and the construction of the 125-ton per day gasification facility in
Florida. It was originally reported that the initial membership interests in the
joint venture would be 75% MPM and 25% Losonoco, and would change to 50% - 50%
ownership after the development work was completed.

Item 8A. Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting for the company in accordance with as defined
in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control
over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the (i) effectiveness and efficiency of operations, (ii) reliability of
financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and (iii)
compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Our internal controls framework
is based on the criteria set forth in the Internal Control - Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission (COSO).
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting
may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, 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.
Management has conducted, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer
and the Chief Financial Officer, supported by an outside accounting firm, an
assessment of the effectiveness of the small business issuer's internal control
over financial reporting as of the year ended December 31, 2007. Management
determined that at December 31, 2007, the Company had a material weakness
because it did not have sufficient number of personnel with adequate knowledge,
experience and training of U.S. GAAP commensurate with the Company's reporting
requirements. This material weakness required the identification of adjustments
during the financial statement close process that have been recorded in the
Company's consolidated financial statements.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company's
registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial
reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's
registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that
permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Other than described above, there have been no change in the Company's internal
control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended
December 31, 2007, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
