Management Commentary

"Our achievements during 2022 were the culmination of numerous strategic efforts that have brought forth positive advancement in several areas, including our financial position" began Richard MacPherson, Chief Executive Officer of ME2C Environmental. "Due mainly to increased product sales, 2022 represents the second year of significant revenue improvements - this last year reaching 66% year-over-year growth and exceeding the near 60% revenue increase that was achieved in 2021. As we have previously stated, we expect this rate of 50-60%+ annual growth to continue based on the strength of our core business in a stable industry, with increased energy demands from coal power and more stringent federal regulations for emissions controls, along with the execution of other growth initiatives that are currently in place.

Continued MacPherson, "If 2022 was a transitional year in our growth, 2023 will be a year of expansion as we focus on outreach with increasing our investor community across North America and abroad, moving our environmental technologies into new, large markets that support critical energy and infrastructure concerns, and introducing our patented, highly effective technologies for mercury emissions reduction to developing coal markets in other countries.

"Our trajectory onto a major stock exchange, tangible value from our patent protection, and additional business partners for our core technology, are expected to be catalysts for near-term expansion moving further into 2023, and we are excited for the potential value that these efforts will provide to our long-term shareholders," concluded MacPherson.

The Company expects to file the Form 10-K on or before April 24, 2023. Accordingly, the information contained in this press release is preliminary and unaudited, subject to change upon finalization of the year-end audit.
