INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

TO THE STOCKHOLDERS

POWDERMET, INC.

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  financial  statements  of  Powdermet,  Inc.,  which  comprise  the  balance

sheets as of May 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash

flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management   is   responsible   for   the   preparation   and   fair   presentation   of   these   financial   statements   in

accordance  with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United  State  of  America;  this  includes  the

design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of

financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on our  audits.  We conducted

our  audits  in  accordance  with  auditing  standards  generally accepted in  the  United  States  of  America.   Those

standards  require  that  we  plan  and  perform  the  audit  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the

financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An  audit  involves  performing  procedures  to  obtain  audit  evidence  about  the  amounts  and  disclosures  in  the

financial statements.  The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of

the risks of  material misstatement of  the financial  statements,  whether  due to fraud or error.   In making those

risk   assessments,   the   auditor   considers   internal   control   relevant   to   the   entity’s   preparation   and   fair

presentation  of  the  financial  statements  in  order  to  design  audit  procedures  that  are  appropriate  in  the

circumstances,  but  not  for  the  purpose  of  expressing  an  opinion  on  the  effectiveness  of  the  entity’s  internal

control.   Accordingly,  we  express  no  such  opinion.   An  audit  also  includes  assessing  the  appropriateness  of

accounting  policies  used  and  the  reasonableness  of  significant  accounting  estimates  made  by management,

as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We  believe  that  the  audit  evidence  we  have  obtained  is  sufficient  and  appropriate  to  provide  a  basis  for  our

audit opinion.




Opinion

In  our  opinion,  the  financial  statements  referred  to  above  present  fairly,  in  all  material  respects,  the  financial

position of Powdermet, Inc. as May 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows

for  the  years  then  ended  in  conformity  with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United  States  of

America.

Report on Supplementary Information

Our  audits  were  conducted  for  the  purpose  of  forming  an  opinion  on  the  financial  statements  taken  as  a

whole.   The  accompanying  supplementary  financial  information  is  presented  for  the  purpose  of  additional

analysis  and  is  not  a  required  part  of  the  financial  statements.   Such  information  is  the  responsibility  of

management  and  was  derived  from  and  relates  directly  to  the  underlying  accounting  and  other  records

used  to  prepare  the  financial  statements.   The  information  has  been  subjected  to  the  auditing  procedures

applied in the audits of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and

reconciling  such  information  directly  to  the  underlying  accounting  and  other  records  used  to  prepare  the

financial   statements   or   to   the   financial   statements   themselves,   and   other   additional   procedures   in

accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America.  In our opinion, the

information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

POWDERMET, INC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business

Powdermet, Inc. (Powdermet, or, the Company) was founded in December 1996.  The Company is a

manufacturer of nano-engineered metal and ceramic powders, and high value-added components

manufactured from these powders. The Company generates revenues from job shop toll processing

and contract research and design services, primarily through the Small Business Innovative

Research ("SBIR") program.

Accounting Period

The Company’s fiscal year ends on December 31.  These financial statements cover the period June 1,

2012 through May 31, 2013, and June 1, 2011 through May 31, 2012.

Basis of Accounting

These financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with U.S.

generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make

estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and

accompanying notes.  Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2012 financial statements to conform with the 2013

financial statement presentation.  Such reclassifications had no effect on net income as previously

reported.

Accounts Receivable

The Company’s accounts receivable are due from a variety of customers.  Credit is extended based on

an evaluation of a customer’s financial condition.  Accounts receivable are generally due within 30

days and are stated at amounts due from customers, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.

Accounts that are outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due.

The Company determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of

time trade receivables are past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the customer’s current

ability to pay its obligations to the Company, and the condition of the general economy and industry

as a whole.  The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and

payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to an allowance for doubtful

accounts.  As of May 31, 2013 and 2012, management has determined that no allowance for

doubtful accounts is required.

POWDERMET, INC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.

Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment is provided by use of the straight-line

method over the following estimated useful lives of the assets:

Machinery and equipment

7   years

Furniture and fixtures

7   years

Computer equipment

5   years

Vehicles

5   years

Leasehold improvements

Lesser of useful life of asset, or remaining

life of lease (15 years maximum)

Construction in progress represents assets that are in process of construction and rehabilitation in

order to bring them to operational status.  All costs are captured in a separate Construction in

Progress account, and are included in the Property and Equipment – Net on the accompanying

balance sheets.  Depreciation commences when the asset is ready to be placed into service.

Routine expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

Intellectual Property

Intellectual property is recorded at cost and consists primarily of patents and licenses.  Patent costs are

being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, up to 15 years, beginning

when the patent is secured by the Company.  License costs are recorded at the cost to obtain the

license and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the effective term of the license, up to 15

years.

Revenue and Cost Recognition

Revenue is generally recorded when earned as defined under the terms of their contractual

agreements.  Each contract sets the timing of amounts that are allowed to be billed and how to bill

those amounts.  Revenue from cost-plus fee contracts is recognized on the basis of costs incurred

during the year plus the fee earned.  Revenue earned under the SBIR program is recognized in the

year in which the related costs are incurred so as to match the revenue against the research costs

being reimbursed.

Cost of revenues include all direct costs and allocations of indirect contract costs.

Shipping and Handling

The Company’s shipping and handling costs are included in cost of revenues as a component of other

direct costs.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company values its employee stock-based awards based on the grant-date fair value in

accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718, Compensation –

Stock Compensation.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements

and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes.  Deferred income taxes reflect the net

tax effects of any temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for

financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.  Valuation allowances

are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to more

likely than not be realized in future tax returns.

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.  The Company did not incur any advertising related

expenses during the years ended May 31, 2013 and 2012.

Equity Method

The equity method of accounting is used when the Company has a 20% to 50% interest in other

entities.  Under the equity method, original investments are recorded at cost and adjusted by the

Company’s share of undistributed earnings or losses of those entities.

4.   INVESTMENT IN NON-CONTROLLING INTEREST – MESOCOAT, INC.

On July 13, 2011, MesoCoat, Inc. (MesoCoat) authorized the release of newly issued common stock to

Abakan, Inc. (Abakan), a related party, in exchange for cash consideration.  The effect of the

transaction diluted Powdermet's ownership of MesoCoat from 65.4% to 47.5% and Powdermet is

accounting for its remaining 47.5% investment using the equity method.  The gain on the

remeasurement of the retained non-controlling investment in MesoCoat was $3,412,500 which is

the fair value of Powdermet's non-controlling interest in MesoCoat on the closing date.  The fair

value of the investment was a Level 3 measurement (see Note 8) based upon the consideration

paid by Abakan for 86,156 new common shares of MesoCoat including a discount for Powdermet's

lack of marketability of its non-controlling interest.

Powdermet's investment in MesoCoat was $0 directly preceding the closing date.  When the

Company's share of losses previously accounted for equaled the carrying value of its investment,

the Company suspended its investment accounting, and no additional losses were recognized since

the Company was not obligated to provide further financial support for MesoCoat.  The Company's

unrecorded share of MesoCoat's losses was $236,458 directly preceding the closing date.

POWDERMET, INC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

7.   DEFERRED COMPENSATION

The Company has non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements with one key employee and one

former employee.  The arrangements allowed the employees to defer payment of a portion of their

annual compensation.  The amount accrued under such arrangements as of May 31, 2013 and

2012 was $183,333.  The deferred compensation arrangements are unfunded; therefore, benefits

will be paid from the general assets of the Company.

8.   FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

As discussed in Note 4, on July 13, 2011, the Company revalued its retained non-controlling investment

in MesoCoat to fair value in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations.  The

remeasurement to fair value only occurs on the date of the business combination event and is not

readjusted to fair value at the end of the reporting period.

GAAP establishes a framework for measuring fair value.  That framework provides a fair value

hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.  It applies to

fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards.  The hierarchy gives

the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

(Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under GAAP are described as follows:

Level 1 -      Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or

liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.

Level 2 -      Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for

identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets.  Level 2 inputs include those

other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and that are

derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or

other means.  If the asset or liability has a specified term, the Level 2 input must be

observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 -      Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value

measurement.

The asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the

lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  Valuation techniques

used should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The fair value of the retained non-controlling interest in MesoCoat, a private entity, was estimated

based on the purchase price of Abakan’s July 13, 2011 investment and corroborated by use of the

income approach.  This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs that are not

observable in the market and, therefore, represents a Level 3 measurement as defined above.

Main assumptions include the following:

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

8.   FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

    A value of $32.50 per share implied by the July 13, 2011 Abakan investment (prior to

consideration of adjustments for lack of control or lack of marketability).

    A discount rate of approximately 38% and probability of achieving the projected cash flows

of 4% using the income approach.

    Adjustments because of the lack of marketability that market participants would consider

when estimating the fair value of the retained non-controlling interest in MesoCoat.

The preceding methods described on the previous page may produce a fair value calculation that may

not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values.  Furthermore, although the

Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market

participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine fair value of certain

financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

The following table presents the changes in the Company’s Level 3 investment during the years ended

9.   INCOME TAXES

Deferred income taxes are provided to recognize the effects of temporary differences between financial

reporting and income tax reporting.  These differences arise principally from Federal net operating

losses and the recognition of equity method investee income for book purposes as opposed to the

recognition of equity method investee income only upon the disposal of the investment for tax

purposes.

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than

not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.  The ultimate realization of

deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in

which those temporary differences become deductible.  Management considers the scheduled

reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in

making this assessment.  As of May 31, 2013 and 2012, management has recorded a valuation

allowance for its deferred tax assets relating to the net operating losses, fixed asset basis

differences,  and other benefits arising prior to December 31, 2010, as management believes it is

more likely than not that it will be unable to utilize those deferred tax assets.

GAAP requires the Company to evaluate tax positions taken and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if

the Company has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would be sustained upon

examination by the IRS.  The Company has analyzed the positions taken, and has concluded that

as of May 31, 2013, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would

require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements.

The Company is subject to routine income tax audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are

currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.  Management believes it is no longer subject to

income tax examinations for years prior to the year ended December 31, 2009.

10. STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

The Company may grant incentive stock options to its directors and employees and nonstatutory stock

options to service providers under the provisions of its stock option plan (the Stock Plan).  Under

the Stock Plan, 500,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for the granting of these

options.  There were 50,000 and 90,000 outstanding options as of May 31, 2013 and 2012,

respectively.  The Stock Plan provides that the exercise price of these options shall not be less than

85% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date granted, depending upon the

optionee and type of option.  Options begin vesting after one year from date of grant at a rate of

25% per year and may not be exercised in fractional options. Options expire as stated in the

individual agreement, but may not exceed 10 years after date of grant.  Options outstanding under

the Stock Plan had an exercise price ranging from $0.25 and $1.47 as of May 31, 2013 and $0.25

and $1.65 as of May 31, 2012.

10. STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS (continued)

As part of the Company's initial financing, lenders were granted warrants to purchase 215,000 shares

of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $1.65 per share. The purchase rights are

exercisable at any time before or at the date of an initial public offering, or the sale of a majority

ownership interest in the Company.  The Company determined that as of the date of the grant the

warrants had no significant fair market value.

The Company also granted each of its eight Advisory Board members warrants to purchase 2,000

shares each of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $1.65 per share. The

purchase rights are exercisable at any time before the date of an initial public offering, or the sale of

a majority ownership interest in the Company.

No stock warrants have been exercised as of May 31, 2013 or 2012.

11. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

The Company has a 401(k) Plan (the Plan) covering substantially all of its employees who are at least

with a related party.  The terms of the sublease agreement expire in May, 2020.  The related party

is responsible for its prorated partial share of executor costs, such as insurance, real estate taxes,

maintenance and other related expenses.  The Company has accounted for this sublease income in

Other Income in the accompanying statements of operations.

The Company has a license agreement (the Agreement) with MesoCoat, which grants MesoCoat an

exclusive license to the use of technical information, proprietary know-how, data and patent rights

assigned to and/or owned by the Company.  The agreement will end upon the last to expire valid

claim of licensed patents, unless terminated within the terms of the agreement.

As part of the Agreement, MesoCoat has a commitment to purchase consumable powders from the

Company through July 1, 2014.  Also, as part of the Agreement the Company will provide

technology transition and development services to MesoCoat to support their research and

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In November 2005, the Company entered into a fifteen year lease agreement with Sherman Properties,

LLC (Sherman Properties) for its corporate office and manufacturing facilities located in Euclid,

Ohio, at the rate of $13,500 per month.   The Company is liable for executor costs, such as

insurance, real estate taxes, maintenance, and other related expenses.  Rental expense paid to

Sherman Properties during the years ended May 31, 2013 and 2012 was $162,000, which

management believes approximates a rental rate for comparable properties in the geographic area.

The Company's Chief Executive Officer and majority stockholder of the Company is a member of

Sherman Properties and, as more fully-described below, the Company guarantees the commercial

mortgage loan indebtedness of Sherman Properties.

The Company also leases equipment under capital lease arrangements, expiring at various times

through June 2013.  These leases are payable in various monthly installments, including

interest between 6.50% and 14.75%, and are included as capital lease obligations in the

accompanying balance sheets.  At May 31, 2013 and 2012, the related assets, with a net book

value of $73,516 and $161,761, respectively, have been capitalized and are included in

property and equipment in the accompanying balance sheets.

The Company is contingently liable as guarantor with respect to $1,080,000 of commercial mortgage

loan indebtedness of Sherman Properties (an entity owned by the Company's majority stockholder

and related individuals) to Cuyahoga County, Ohio (the County) for property acquired and leased to

the Company.  The guarantee was issued in November 2002 and provides that if at any time

Sherman Properties defaults on its obligation under the loan, the Company will be obligated to

perform under the guarantee by making the required payments.  The value of the property

associated with the guarantee is estimated at $2,770,000 and the liabilities associated with the

guarantee are estimated to be $1,310,000 as of May 31, 2013.

The Company is involved in various matters and litigation in the normal course of business including

proceedings based on product liability claims and employment matters for which the Company

carries commercial insurance.  Management regularly reviews the probable outcome of these

matters, the expenses expected to be incurred, the availability and limits of the insurance coverage,

and monitors the established accruals for liabilities.  While the outcome of pending matters cannot

be predicted with certainty, management believes that any liabilities that may result from these

matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's liquidity, financial condition, or

results of operations.

14. CONCENTRATIONS

During the year ended May 31, 2013 and 2012, revenues from two third-party customers comprised

approximately 45% and 31%, respectively, of total revenues.  At May 31, 2013 and 2012, accounts

receivable from these customers accounted for approximately 28% and 32%, respectively, of total

receivables.

As more fully-described in Note 1, a significant portion of the Company's revenue is generated through

government contracts under the Federal SBIR program.  During the years ended May 31, 2013 and

2012, revenues from the SBIR program were approximately 70% and 67%, respectively.

(PPP) as wholly-owned subsidiaries.  Terves was formed to develop and sell "frac balls", a metallic

material designed to increase efficiencies for oil and gas extraction from shale rock formations.

PPP was formed to operate Powdermet's commercial business activity, while Powdermet will

maintain operations of the SBIR and other governmental programs.  Neither Terves nor PPP have

conducted any business activities to date, other than their business formations.  There were no
