Denver, Colorado
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
We have audited the balance sheets of Carbon Capture USA, Inc. a development stage company as of June 30, and the related statements of operations, statement of shareholders’ deficit and cash flows from May 25, 2012(date of inception to June 30, 2012. 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 audit.
We conducted our audit 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. 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 audit provides reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Carbon Capture USA, Inc. as of June 30, 2012, and, the results of operations, statement of shareholders’ deficit and its cash flows from May 25, 2012 (date of Inception) until June 30, 2012, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in note 5 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred net losses since inception, a retained deficit of $250,000 and no working capital, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 1. Business, Organization and Basis of Presentation
Carbon Capture USA, Inc. (the "Company") is a Colorado corporation formed on May 25, 2012. The Company was formed to acquire an exclusive license to certain intellectual property related to provisional patent Serial number 61/077,376 and a US Patent to be issued. The patent titled, “METHOD OF SEPARATING CARBON DIOXIDE”, relates to methods of decomposing a gaseous medium, more specifically, relating to methods of utilizing radio frequency energy to separate the elemental components of gases such as carbon dioxide.
On May 25, 2012, the Company executed a license agreement with Carbon Capture Corporation, at that date its wholly-owned parent Company, in exchange for $250,000; payable within six months from the execution date of the license agreement. The Company recorded an asset of $250,000 for the intellectual property as of the license agreement execution date.
On May 25, 2012, an Agreement Concerning the Exchange of Securities (the “Agreement”) by and among FastFunds Financial Corporation, (“FFFC”), Advanced Technology Development, Inc. ("ATD"), the Company and Carbon Capture Corporation ("CCC") was executed. ATD is a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of the FFFC. Pursuant to the Agreement, ATD acquired from CCC all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Carbon in exchange for thirty million (30,000,000) newly issued unregistered shares of FFFC common stock. ATD also assumed the unpaid license fee of $250,000 due from the Company to CCC.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are necessary to provide a fair presentation of operating results for the periods presented have been made.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred operating losses since inception and will require additional capital to sustain its operations for the foreseeable future. These factors, among others, may indicate that the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to receive capital from its parent company to meet its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitability through the successful commercialization of its products.
The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“USGAAP”).
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Accounting Method
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. The Company has elected a fiscal year ending on December 31.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents at June 30, 2012 were $-0-.
Loss per Common Share
Basic net loss per share amounts is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted per share amounts are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year and diluted potential common shares. Diluted potential common shares consist of stock options, stock warrants and redeemable convertible stock and are calculated using the treasury stock method. As of June 30, 2012, there were no dilutive convertible common shares outstanding.
Long-lived assets:
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. During the period ended June 30, 2012, management determined the license agreement for our intellectual property was impaired. See Note 4, "Impairment Charge" for a description of the impairment charges recorded as of June 30, 2012.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided in accordance with Accounting Standard Code 740 (ASC 740), Accounting for Income Taxes. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05 to require an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity. ASU 2011-05 will be effective for the Company beginning February 1, 2012, and the Company will be required to apply it retrospectively. The adoption of this standard may only impact the presentation of our financial statements and will have no impact on the reported results.
In May 2011, the FASB issued new authoritative guidance to provide a consistent definition of fair value and ensure that fair value measurements and disclosure requirements are similar between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. This guidance changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and is applied prospectively. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its financial statements.
The Company does not expect that adoption of these or other recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Note 3. Stockholders' Equity
The Company’s Articles of Incorporation authorize 10,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock.
On May 25, 2012, we issued 5,000 shares of our common stock to our parent Carbon Capture Corporation at par value of $0.001.
Note 4. Impairment Charges
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. As of June 30, 2012, management used estimates of the present value of future cash flows (Level 3) based upon the anticipated future use of its intellectual property license agreement to determine that the carrying value of the license is not recoverable. The Company recorded an impairment charge of $250,000 in the period ended June 30, 2012, reducing the book value of the license to zero.
Note 5. Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $250,000 as of June 30, 2012 and further losses are anticipated in the development of its business raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with loans from directors and/or private placement of common stock. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional capital or in further developing its operations
Note 6. Subsequent Events
Management has determined that there are no further events subsequent to the balance sheet date that should be disclosed in these financial statements.

Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Description of the Acquisition and Basis of Presentation
On May 25, 2012, an Agreement Concerning the Exchange of Securities (the “Agreement”) by and among FastFunds Financial Corporation, (the “Company”) a Nevada corporation, Advanced Technology Development, Inc., a Colorado corporation ("ATD"), and Carbon Capture USA, Inc., a Colorado corporation ("Carbon") and Carbon Capture Corporation, a Colorado corporation ("CCC") was executed. ATD is a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Carbon is a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of CCC, which is privately held. Pursuant to the Agreement, ATD acquired from CCC all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Carbon in exchange for thirty million (30,000,000) newly issued unregistered shares of common stock. ATD has also assumed the unpaid license fee of $250,000 due from Carbon to CCC.
The organizational history of Carbon is described in Carbon’s audited financial statements as of June 30, 2012, which are included elsewhere in this Report on Form 8-K.
Basis of Presentation
Certain disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States have been condensed or omitted as permitted by SEC rules and regulations.
These pro forma unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved had the transaction actually taken place at the dates indicated and do not purport to be indicative of future position or operating results.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet was prepared combining the historical balance sheet of Carbon at June 30, 2012 and the historical balance sheet of FastFunds Financial Corporation as described above.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations includes the historical operations of Carbon for the period ended June 30, 2012 and the historical operations of FastFunds.
2. Pro Forma Adjustments and Assumptions
The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information gives effect to the Agreement as if it had occurred at an earlier date, and has been prepared for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the consolidated financial position or results of operations in future periods or the results that actually would have been realized had Carbon and FastFunds been a combined company during the specified periods. The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet set forth below represents the combined financial position of Carbon and FastFunds as of June 30, 2012, as if the transaction occurred on June 30, 2012. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations set forth below represent the combined results of operations of Carbon and FastFunds, as if the transaction occurred on the first day of the periods presented therein.
The pro forma adjustments were based on the preliminary information available at the time of the preparation of the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information, including the notes thereto, are qualified in their entirety by reference to, and should be read in conjunction with, the historical consolidated financial statements found as exhibit 99.1 in this Form 8-K.
A. | Reflects the pro forma adjustments to record the elimination of Carbon’s historical equity and the assumption of its liabilities by FastFunds. |
B. | We compute net income per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, Earnings per Share. Under the provisions of FASB ASC 260, basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The 30,000,000 shares issued to the shareholders of Carbon as a result of the transaction and the existing outstanding shares of the company that remained outstanding after the re-capitalization are assumed to have been outstanding since the beginning of the earliest period presented (January 1, 2012), resulting in 5,617,258,066 shares being outstanding for purposes of basic net income per share. |
