E.R.C. ENERGY RECOVERY CORPORATION
[A Development Stage Company]
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization - E.R.C. Energy Recovery Corporation (“the Company”) was incorporated on October 24, 1979, in the State of Delaware for the purpose of providing accounting, personnel recruiting and general business consulting. Currently, the Company has no on-going operations. The Company is considered to be a development stage Company as defined in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7.
Condensed Financial Statements -The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) are necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at September 30, 2008, and 2007, and for the periods then ended have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s December 31, 2007, audited financial statements. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, and 2007, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
Accounting Estimates- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the 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 estimated by management.
Reclassification -The financial statements for periods prior to September 30, 2008, have been reclassified to conform to the headings and classifications used in the September 30, 2008, financial statements.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has incurred losses since inception and currently has no on-going operations. Further, the Company has current liabilities in excess of current assets. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. In this regard, management is proposing to raise any necessary additional funds not provided by operations through loans or through additional sales of its common stock. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising this additional capital or in achieving profitable operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Management Compensation - During the periods ended September 30, 2008, and 2007, the Company did not pay any compensation to its officers and directors. During the nine month periods ended September 30, 2008, and 2007, Officers and Directors contributed services totaling $3,525 and $0, respectively, which have been accounted for as contributions to capital.
Office Space- The Company has not had a need to rent office space. An officer/shareholder of the Company is allowing the Company to use his office as a mailing address, as needed, at no expense to the Company.
Advances from Related Party - A shareholder of the Company or entities related to the shareholder have paid expenses on behalf of the Company. For the nine month periods ended September 30, 2008, and 2007, these payments amounted to $24,487 and $5,360, respectively. The Company has accounted for any such payments as advances payable to the related party. At September 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, a balance of $37,307 and $12,820 is owed the related party.
Accrued Interest - - The Company has imputed interest at 10% per annum on balances owing to related parties. At September 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, the accrued interest balance was $5,353 and $3,297, respectively. Interest expense to related parties amounted to $2,057 and $307 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, and 2007, respectively.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 5 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Contingencies -The Company has not been active for several years. Management believes that there are no unrecorded valid outstanding liabilities from prior operations. If a creditor were to come forward and claim a liability, the Company has committed to contest the claim to the fullest extent of the law. Due to various statutes of limitations and because of the likelihood that such an old liability would not still be valid, no amount has been accrued in these financial statements for any such contingencies.

Item 2. Management’s Discussions and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Forward-looking Statements
Statements made in this Quarterly Report which are not purely historical are forward-looking statements with respect to the goals, plan objectives, intentions, expectations, financial condition, results of operations, future performance of our business, including, without limitation, (i) our ability to raise capital, and (ii) statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “may,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “expects,” “projects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “plans,” “intends,” “targets” or similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and important factors (many of which are beyond our control) that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements, including the following, general economic or industry conditions, nationally and/or in the communities in which we may conduct business, changes in the interest rate environment, legislation or regulatory requirements, conditions of the securities markets, our ability to raise capital, changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines, financial or political instability, acts of war or terrorism, other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and technical factors affecting our current or potential business and related matters.
Accordingly, results actually achieved may differ materially from expected results in these statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We do not undertake, and specifically disclaim, any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of such statements.
Plan of Operation
Our plan of operation for the next 12 months is to: (i)consider guidelines of industries in which we may have an interest; (ii) adopt a business plan regarding engaging in the business of any selected industry; and (iii) to commence such operations through funding and/or the acquisition of a going concern engaged in any industry selected.
During the next 12 months, our only foreseeable cash requirements will relate to maintaining our good standing; the payment of our Securities and Exchange Commission and Exchange Act reporting filing expenses, including associated legal and accounting fees; costs incident to reviewing or investigating any potential business venture; and maintaining our good standing as a corporation in our state of organization. We anticipate that these funds will be provided to us in the form of loans from David C. Merrell, our current President. There are no written agreements requiring Mr. Merrell to provide these cash resources; and to the extent funds are provided, such funds will bear no interest (though an interest expense of 10% has been imputed on funds advanced) and will be due on demand. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we have not actively begun to seek any business or acquisition candidate.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended September 30, 2008 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2007
During the quarters ended September 30, 2008, and 2007, we had losses of $7,154 and $8,284, respectively. We were originally organized for the primary purpose of providing accounting, personnel recruiting and general business consulting. These business operations proved unsuccessful and were ceased in 1989. Since that time, we have not conducted any business operations.
11
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2008 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2007
We have had no operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2008, nor do we have operations as of the date of this filing. General and administrative expenses were $42,073 for the September 30, 2008, period compared to $10,260 for the September 30, 2007, period. General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, were comprised mainly of accounting and legal fees. We had a net loss of $47,655 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, period compared to a net loss of $10,567 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, period.
Liquidity
We have no current cash resources.
During the next 12 months, our only foreseeable cash requirements will relate to maintaining our good standing in the State of Delaware, the legal and accounting costs of preparing and filing our Exchange Act reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission and any costs we may incur in evaluating a reorganization, merger or acquisition candidate. We do not have any cash reserves to pay for our administrative expenses for the next 12 months. In the event that additional funding is required in order to keep us in good standing, we may attempt to raise such funding through loans or through additional sales of our common stock.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not required.
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2008, our disclosure controls and procedures were, subject to the limitations noted above, effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules, regulations and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management, with the participation of the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has concluded there were no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
