AUDITORS’ REPORT

To the Shareholders of Black Mountain Capital Corporation

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Black Mountain Capital Corporation as at December 31, 2006 and the consolidated statements of operations and deficit and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2006.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Canada and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements.  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.

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2006 and the results of its operations and cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2006 in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada.

The consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2005 and for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2005 were audited by other auditors who expressed an opinion without reservation on these consolidated statements in their report to shareholders dated February 22, 2006.

COMMENTS BY AUDITORS FOR U.S. READERS ON CANADA - U.S. REPORTING CONFLICT

In the United States, reporting standards for auditors require the addition of an explanatory paragraph (following the opinion paragraph) when the consolidated financial statements are affected by significant uncertainties and contingencies such as those referred to in note 1 to these consolidated financial statements.  Although we conducted our audit in accordance with both Canadian and U.S. generally accepted auditing standards, our report to the shareholders dated April 16, 2007 is expressed in accordance with Canadian reporting standards which do not require a reference to such matters when the uncertainties are adequately disclosed in the consolidated financial statements.

BLACK MOUNTAIN CAPITAL CORPORATION            
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements      
December 31, 2006 and 2005              
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)     

1.    NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

The Company was incorporated on December 28, 2001 in the Yukon Territory, Canada and is involved in the financial services industry in Canada. The Company has also changed its name from Mercury Partners & Company Inc.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue on a going-concern basis.  The Company has an accumulated operating deficit of $4.0 million at December 31, 2006 (2005 - $3.9 million). The ability of the Company to continue as a going-concern depends upon its ability to develop profitable operations and to continue to raise adequate equity financing.

There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to raise funds in which case the Company may be unable to meet its obligations. Should the Company be unable to continue as a going-concern, the net realizable values of its net assets may be materially less than the amounts recorded on the balance sheets.


2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Accounting and Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada (“Canadian GAAP”).  As described in note 14, these principles differ in certain respects from principles and practices generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”).  Summarized below are those policies considered particularly significant to the Company.  References to the Company included herein are inclusive of the accounts of the parent company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

All intercompany balances have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of any contingent assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues earned and expenses incurred during the period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investments

The Company’s investments are carried at cost and considered non-current assets when the Company intends to hold them for a period of greater than one year.  If there is a loss in value that is other than temporary, the investments are written-down to their estimated market values.
 
Asset Retirement Obligations

The fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation is recognized on an undiscounted cash flow basis when a reasonable estimate of the fair value of the obligation can be made.  The asset retirement obligation is recorded as a liability with a corresponding increase to the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset.  Subsequently, the asset retirement cost is allocated to expense using a systematic and rational method and is adjusted to reflect period-to-period changes in the liability resulting from the passage of time and from revisions to either expected payment dates or the amounts comprising the original estimate of the obligation.  As at December 31, 2006, the Company does not have any asset retirement obligations.

Future Income Taxes

The Company accounts for potential future net tax assets which are attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and which are  measured using tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be settled.  When the future realization of income tax assets does not meet the test of being more likely than not to occur, a valuation allowance in the amount of the potential future benefit is taken and no net asset is recognized.  Such an allowance has been applied to all potential income tax assets of the Company.

December 31, 2006 and 2005              
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)           

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Retirement of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are assessed for impairment when events and circumstances warrant, when the carrying amounts of the assets exceeds its estimated undiscounted net cash flow from use or its fair value, at which time the impairment is charged to earnings.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Canadian dollar is the functional currency of all of the Company’s operations which are classified as integrated for foreign currency translation purposes, and under this method translation gains or losses are included in the determination of net income or loss. Monetary assets and liabilities have been translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate in effect at balance sheet date.  Non-Monetary assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses have been translated into Canadian dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates.

Financial Instruments and Financial Risk

The Company’s financial instruments consists of cash, amounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and loan payable, the fair values of which approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Share Capital

Common shares issued for non-monetary consideration are recorded at their fair market value based upon the lower of the trading price of the Company’s shares on the TSX Venture Exchange on the date of the agreement to issue the shares and the date of share issuance.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company follows the Recommendations of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (“CICA”) in connection with accounting for stock option-based compensation.  The standard now requires that all stock option-based awards made to consultants and employees be recognized in these consolidated financial statements and measured using a fair value-based method.

Consideration received on the exercise of stock options and compensation options and warrants is recorded as share capital.  The related contributed surplus originally recognized when the options were granted, is transferred to share capital.

Loss per share

Loss per share has been calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year.  Diluted loss per share is not presented as it is anti-dilutive to the loss per share figures.

Comparative Figures

Certain of the prior years’ figures have been reclassified to conform with the current year’s financial statement presentation.

During 2005, the Company paid or accrued $91,370 (2004 - $76,360) in management and director fees to directors or their private companies and paid or accrued interest of $15,960 (2004 – nil) to the former President’s private company for a loan advanced in 2005.

14.          DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CANADIAN AND UNITED STATES GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (GAAP)   (continued)

At December 31, 2006 and 2005, Nil (2004 – 120,000) potentially dilutive shares were excluded from net loss per share.

 
There is no impact on cash flows for the comparative years as the adjustments to the carrying values of marketable securities and long-term investments required under U.S GAAP are comprised of unrealized holding gains and losses only.

 
Marketable Securities

 
For Canadian GAAP purposes, short-term marketable securities are carried at the lower of cost or quoted market value on a specific identification basis, with any unrealized loss included in the statements of operations.  Long-term investments are carried on the cost or equity basis and only written-down when there is evidence of a decline in value that is other than temporary.

 
Under U.S. GAAP, Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” (“SFAS 115”) requires that certain investments be classified into available-for-sale or trading securities stated at fair market values.  Any unrealized holding gains or losses are to be reported as a separate component of shareholder’s equity until realized for available-for-sale securities and included in earnings for trading securities.  Under FAS 115, at December 31, 2005, the Company’s investment in marketable securities in the amount of $112,234 would be classified as trading securities and its investment in long-term investment securities carried at cost in the amount of $337 would be classified as available-for-sale securities.

 
The Company does not own any securities at December 31, 2006.

Comprehensive income

 
Under U.S. GAAP, Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 “Reporting Comprehensive Income” establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components (revenue, expenses, gains and losses).  The purpose of reporting comprehensive income is to present a measure of all changes in shareholders’ equity that result from recognized transactions and other economic events of the year, other than transaction with owners in their capacity as owners.  Under Canadian GAAP, the reporting of comprehensive income is not required.

 
Comprehensive loss is as follows:

 During fiscal 2003, the Company changed from the temporal method of accounting for foreign exchange translation to the current rate method as required by Emerging Issues Committee 130 issued by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants. The standard requires restatement and therefore financial statements for fiscal 2002 and 2001 have been restated.  For more information about the accounting change and restatement see Note 3 to the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2003.

Operating Results

The Company operates in both the United States and Canada and, as such, the Company's consolidated financial results are subject to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The Company reports its results of operations in U.S. dollars and translates assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange on the balance sheet date.

Inflation

The Company does not believe that inflation has had a material impact on revenues or income over the past three fiscal years.

Foreign Currency

The Company's operations are conducted in international markets and its consolidated financial results are subject to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. During fiscal 2003 the Company changed from the temporal method of accounting for foreign exchange translation to the current rate method as required by EIC 130 issued by the CICA (see Note 2 to the Company's consolidated financial statements).

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

Management routinely makes judgments and estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. As the number of variables and assumptions affecting the probable future resolution of the uncertainties increase, these judgments become even more subjective and complex.  The Company has identified certain accounting policies, described below, that are the most important to the portrayal of its current financial condition and results of operations.  The significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.

Marketable securities

Marketable securities are recorded at the lower of cost or quoted market value on a specific identification basis.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's principal assets consist of cash. The Company's principal sources of funds are its available cash resources, bank financing and public financing. The Company has no recurring cash requirements other than repayment of interest and principal on its debt, tax payments and corporate overhead.

At December 31, 2006, the Company's readily available cash increased to $466,112 compared to $14,392 at December 31, 2005. Total current assets at December 31, 2006 increased to $448,452 from $148,295 for the corresponding comparative period.

 
 

 
Operating activities used cash of $56,996 in fiscal 2006 compared to $740,718 and $807,397 during fiscal 2005 and 2004, respectively, predominately from the net loss incurred during the year.  Investing activities generated cash of $13,452 from proceeds on the sale of long-term investments during fiscal 2006 compared to investing activities generating cash of $84,929 in fiscal 2005 and investing activities generating cash of $1,103,875 in fiscal 2004.  Financing activities generated cash of $487,000 from the issuance of common shares.  Financing activities provided no cash in fiscal 2005 and 2004.

Financial Position

Total assets of the Company at December 31, 2006 increased to $448,452 compared to $148,632 at December 31, 2005, predominately from public financings.   The Company's liabilities decreased to $410,912 as of December 31, 2006 compared to $509,847 as of December 31, 2005 due largely to the payment of accounts payable and accrued liabilities during the year.  The Company reported loans payable of $342,936 as of December 31, 2006.

Shareholders' equity as of December 31, 2006 was $37,540 compared to a deficiency of $361,215 as of December 31, 2005.  The Company had 11,033,514 shares issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2006 of which 2,250,219 were held in treasury for cancellation.   The weighted average number of common shares outstanding as of December 31, 2006 was 7,940,089.


Subsequent Events

On March 13, 2007, the Company announced it had entered into an option agreement with Diagnos Inc. to acquire 100% interest in two prospective nickel properties in the Abitibi region of Quebec, Canada. The 75 claims cover approximately 3,200 acres of terrain in a region with two significant nickel deposits and one past-producing mine.  The Company will pay Diagnos a sum of $45,000 for each of the two properties ($90,000 total).  Furthermore, for each property upon which an economic discovery is made, a bonus of $70,000 in shares and a 2% net smelter return will be issued to Diagnos.  The Company can acquire 1 per cent of the NSR for $1-million.
