It also failed.

Code:
C:\>ssh ADM_B 'REG ADD "HKLM\Software\My Co" /v cat /t REG_SZ /d 100 /f'
ERROR: Invalid syntax.
Type "REG ADD /?" for usage.

  6. REG_SZ
  7. /d
  8. 100
  9. /f

However, since to the Windows "shell" being very, very, very limited and not allowing nested quotes, this is what your ssh command looks like:
  1. ADM_B
  2. REG
  3. ADD
  4. HKLM\Software\My
  5. Co
  6. /v
  7. cat
  8. /t
  9. REG_SZ
  10. /d
  11. 100
  12. /f

But since you've apparently got Cygwin installed anyways, use the Bash shell that's installed with it, since this shell knows about different types of quotes and how to nest them.
I tried to run the same command line under Bash shell. But it still failed and got the same result. It seems that double quotes are needed, but ssh still doesn't like space character.

Code:
bash-3.2$ ssh ADM_B REG ADD "HKLM\Software\My Co" /v cat /t REG_SZ /d 100 /f
ERROR: Invalid syntax.
Type "REG ADD /?" for usage.

bash-3.2$ ssh ADM_B REG ADD "HKLM\Software\MyCo" /v cat /t REG_SZ /d 100 /f
The operation completed successfully.

bash-3.2$ ssh ADM_B REG ADD HKLM\Software\MyCo /v cat /t REG_SZ /d 100 /f
ERROR: Invalid key name.
Type "REG ADD /?" for usage.
