MMIO's Financial Highlights from 2004 - 2007:

* Produced revenues with a CAGR of 53.27%;

* Improved Profit Margin by 231% from -284% to -53%;

* Maintained an average Gross Margin of 19.25%; and

* Successfully sustained an average GMROI of 331%

The company has also recently expanded into the Louisiana marketplace, a hotbed for petrochemical activity. According to the filing “Our long-term plans for growth include continued expansion of our industrial base into Louisiana. We have obtained the necessary licenses in Louisiana and during the first quarter of 2008 we received our first orders from customers in Louisiana."

Including offshore production, Louisiana is the number one producer of crude oil and the number two producer of natural gas among the 50 states. The oil & gas industry is a giant economic engine for Louisiana's economy, supporting $70.2 billion in sales for Louisiana firms (Louisiana Mid-Continent Study, 2007). So, the move into this new region appears to be a wise one.
