NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Bulldog Financial, Inc. (hereinafter “The Company”) was incorporated on August 23, 2004 under the laws of the State of Nevada for any lawful business. The principal business of the Company is accounts receivable management. The Company expects to purchase defaulted contracts from lenders and to pursue collections from the contract debtors.
The Company is in the development stage and as of August 31, 2006 had not realized any revenues from its planned operations. The Company’s year-end is August 31.
The foregoing unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Regulation S-B as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2006. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements furnished herein include all adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period presented. Operating results for the six-month period ending February 28, 2007, are not necessar ily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending August 31, 2007.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
This summary of significant accounting policies of Bulldog Financial, Inc. is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Going Concern
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $88,972 incurred through February 28, 2007. The Company has no revenues, limited cash, and negative working capital. Management has established plans to begin generating revenues and decrease debt. Management intends to seek additional capital from new equity securities offerings that will provide funds needed to increase liquidity, fund internal growth and fully implement its business plan. These plans, if successful, will mitigate the factors which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence. The Company anticipates that it will need $60,000 to continue in existence for the following twelve months. The Company expects to be able to control its cash outflows for contracts purchased based upon funds received.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February, 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (hereinafter “SFAS No. 159”). This statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. This Statement is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement, which is consistent with the Board’s long-term measurement objectives for accounting for financial instruments. This statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year tha t begins after November 15, 2007, although earlier adoption is permitted. Management has not determined the effect that adopting this statement would have on the Company’s financial condition or results of operation.
In September, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R)” (hereinafter “SFAS No. 158”). This statement requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded statues of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net assets of a not for profit organization. This statement also requires an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year end statement of financial position, with limited exceptions. The Company does n ot expect the adoption of SFAS No. 158 to have a significant material immediate effect on its financial position or results of operations.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (hereinafter “SFAS No. 157) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

Where applicable, SFAS No. 157 simplifies and codifies related guidance within GAAP and does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is encouraged. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 157 to have a significant material immediate effect on its financial position or results of operations.
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (hereinafter "FIN 48"), which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company does not expect the adoption of FIN 48 to have a material immediate impact on its financial reporting The Company does not expect the adoption of FIN 48 to have a significant material immediate effect on its financial position or results of operations.
In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments, an Amendment of FASB Standards No. 133 and 140” (hereinafter “SFAS No. 155”). This statement established the accounting for certain derivatives embedded in other instruments. It simplifies accounting for certain hybrid financial instruments by permitting fair value remeasurement for any hybrid instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation under SFAS No. 133 as well as eliminating a restriction on the passive derivative instruments that a qualifying special-purpose entity (“SPE”) may hold under SFAS No. 140. This statement allows a public entity to irrevocably elect to initially and subsequently measure a hybrid instrument that would be required to be separated into a host contract and derivat ive in its entirety at fair value (with changes in fair value recognized in earnings) so long as that instrument is not designated as a hedging instrument pursuant to the statement. SFAS No. 140 previously prohibited a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006, with early adoption permitted as of the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year. Management believes the adoption of this statement will have no material immediate impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS No. 154”), “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections,” which replaces Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes,” and SFAS No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements -- An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 28”. SFAS No. 154 provides guidance on accounting for and reporting changes in accounting principle and error corrections. SFAS No. 154 requires that changes in accounting principle be applied retrospectively to prior period financial statements and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS No. 154 had no immediate material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Use of Estimates
The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the financial statements. Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated amounts.
NOTE 3 – PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The useful life of property and equipment for purposes of computing depreciation is three years. The following is a summary of property, equipment, and accumulated depreciation:
| February 28, | August 31, | |||
| 2007 | 2006 | |||
| Office Equipment | 10,125 | 10,125 | ||
| Software | 10,000 | 10,000 | ||
| Less accumulated depreciation & amortization | (4,753 | ) | (1,400 | ) |
| Property and Equipment, net | 15,372 | 18,725 |
Depreciation and amortization expense for the period ended February 28, 2007 was $3,354. The Company evaluates the recoverability of property and equipment when events and circumstances indicate that such assets might be impaired. The Company determines impairment by comparing the undiscounted future cash flows estimated to be generated by these assets to their respective carrying amounts. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Replacements and betterments are capitalized. The cost and related reserves of assets sold or retired are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in results of operations.
Long-lived Assets
The company has adopted the policies of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”. This standard establishes a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, including discontinued operations, and requires that these long-lived assets be measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing operations or discontinued operations. Accordingly, the Company reviews the carrying amount of long-lived assets for impairment where events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The determination of any impairment would include a comparison of estimated future cash flows anticipated to be generated during the remaining life of the assets to the net carrying value of the assets.

NOTE 5 – CAPITAL STOCK
The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock. All shares have equal voting rights, are non-assessable and have one vote per share. Voting rights are not cumulative and, therefore, the holders of more than 50% of the common stock could, if they choose to do so, elect all of the directors of the Company.
In its initial capitalization in August 2004, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares of common stock for a total of $100 cash. The Company issued an additional 385,000 and 387,500 shares of common stock for $38,500 and $38,750 during the periods ending May 31, 2006 and February 28, 2006, respectively.
NOTE 6 – INCOME TAXES
At February 28, 2007, the Company had net deferred tax assets calculated at an expected rate of 34% of approximately $30,260, principally arising from net operating loss carry forwards for income tax purposes. As management of the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefit of the net deferred tax asset, a valuation allowance equal to the net deferred tax asset has been established at February 28, 2007. The significant components of the deferred tax asset at February 28, 2007, and August 31, 2006 were as follows:
At February 28, 2007, the Company has net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $89,000, which begin to expire in the year 2024. The change in valuation allowance from August 31, 2006 to February 28, 2007 is approximately $4,360.
| February 28, | August 31, | |||
| 2007 | 2006 | |||
| Net operating loss carry forward: | 89,000 | 76,200 | ||
| Deferred tax asset | 30,260 | 25,900 | ||
| Deferred tax asset valuation allowance | (30,260 | ) | (25,900 | ) |
| Net deferred tax asset | - | - |
NOTE 7 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Accounts payable to related parties represents amounts due to the president and chief executive officer for payment of expenses on behalf of the Company. These payables are non-interest bearing and not collateralized. At August 31, 2006 and February 28, 2007, the Company owed the president $29,322 for expenses paid on behalf of the Company.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OFOPERATIONS
We were incorporated in the state of Nevada on August 23, 2004. We have not started operations. We have not generated revenues from operations, but must be considered a start-up business. Our statutory registered agent in Nevada is The Corporation Trust Company of Nevada, 6100 Neil Road, Suite 500, Reno, Nevada 89511. From the proceeds of our offering, we subleased office space to commence operations. Our telephone number is (303) 278-0207.
On May 25, 2006, we completed our public offering by selling 772,500 shares at $0.10 per share, totaling $77,250. We began our operations as described in the Business section of our Registration Statement during June, 2006.
We have not conducted any market research into the likelihood of success of our operations.
Plan of Operations
This section of the report includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this report. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or our predictions.
We are a start-up stage corporation and have begun operations and have generated some revenues from our business operations.
Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that our auditors believe there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not purchased a significant number of contracts or generated any revenues from the development. We believe the technical aspects of our website will be sufficiently developed to use for our operations 90 days from the completion of our public offering. We must raise cash from operations. Our only other source for cash at this time is investments by others in our company. We must raise cash to implement our project and begin our operations. Even if we raise the maximum amount of money in our public offering, we do not know how long the money will last, however, we do believe it will last twelve months. We will begin operations immediately because we raised the minimum amount of money from our public offering.
We cannot guarantee that once we begin operations we will stay in business after operations have commenced. Further, if we are unable to attract enough clients to utilize our services, we may quickly use up the proceeds from the minimum amount of money from our public offering and will need to find alternative sources, like a second public offering, a private placement of securities, or loans from our officers or others in order for us to maintain our operations. At the present time, we have not made any arrangements to raise additional cash, other than through our public offering.
-10-
If we need additional cash and cannot raise it, we will either have to suspend operations until we do raise the cash, or cease operations entirely. Since we have raised the minimum amount of money from our public offering, we expect it to last a year but with limited funds available to develop growth strategy. If we raise the maximum amount, we believe the money will last a year and also provide funds for growth strategy. If we raise less than the maximum amount and we need more money we will have to revert to obtaining additional money as described in this paragraph. Other than as described in this paragraph, we have no other financing plans.
Because we have raised the minimum amount in our public offering, we believe we can satisfy our cash requirements during the next twelve months. We will not be conducting any product research or development. We have purchased equipment necessary to start operations. We intend to hire additional employees on an as needed basis.
We intend to accomplish the foregoing through the following milestones:
1. We intend to initiate marketing operations within approximately 20-30 days from setting up our office. We believe that it will cost a minimum of $20,000 for our marketing campaign. If we raise the maximum amount of proceeds from our public offering, we will devote $60,000 to our marketing program. Initially, we intend to market our services in the state of Colorado, through traditional sources such as trade magazines, conventions and conferences, newspaper advertising, billboards, telephone directories and flyers / mailers primarily to other purchasers of class “C” commercial paper. We also intend to make personal contact with potential clients which may require us to travel and entertain potential customers. The extent of our marketing program will be based upon the amount of money we raise in our public offering. If we raise more than the minimum, we intend to spend more on the quality of the adve rtisements as well as the volume of advertisements. Marketing is an ongoing matter that will continue during the life of our operations. We also believe that we should begin to see results from our marketing campaign within 30 days from its initiation, or 90 days from setting up our office. This milestone is based upon our officers’ and directors’ previous and current work experiences as well as their life experiences. From the proceeds from our offering, we obtained an initial marketing study and assessment for $7,500. We felt additional monies would be better spent purchasing delinquent accounts and generating revenues. We intend to continue marketing programs and to fund any such programs from operating revenues generated from the collection of delinquent accounts.
2. Within 60 days or less from establishing our office, we will begin servicing contracts. This milestone is based upon our officers’ and directors’ previous and current work experiences as well as their life experiences. This milestone has been reached.
In summary, we are in full operation at this time.
If we cannot generate sufficient revenues to continue operations, we will suspend or cease operations. If we cease operations, we do not know what we will do and we do not have any plans to do anything else. If this occurs, you will lose all of your investment.
-11-
Limited operating history; need for additional capital
There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are in start-up stage operations and have not generated any revenues. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services and products.
We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.
From Inception on August 23, 2004 to February 28, 2007
During this period we incorporated the company, hired the attorney, and hired the auditor for the preparation of our Form SB-2 Registration Statement. We have prepared an internal business plan. Our loss since inception is $88,972. We have not started our proposed business operations and will not do so until we have completed our public offering. We expect to begin operations ninety days after we complete our public offering.
Since inception, we sold 5,000,000 shares of common stock to our officers and directors for $100 and 772,500 shares of common stock to other investors for $77,250 in cash.
Accounts payable
Accounts payable of $11,498 was recorded at February 28, 2007, represented by liabilities, including $29,322 of related party liabilities. These liabilities were accrued during the period ended February 28, 2007.
Liquidity and capital resources
As of the date of this annual report, we have yet to generate any revenues from our business operations.
In August 2004, we issued 5,000,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. This was accounted for as a sale of common stock.

Recent accounting pronouncements
In February, 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities –Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (hereinafter “SFAS No. 159”). This statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. This Statement is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement, which is consistent with the Board’s long-term measurement objectives for accounting for financial instruments. This statement is effective as of the beginning of an ent ity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007, although earlier adoption is permitted. Management has not determined the effect that adopting this statement would have on the Company’s financial condition or results of operation.
In September, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R)” (hereinafter “SFAS No. 158”). This statement requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded statues of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net assets of a not for profit organization. This statement also requires an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year end statement of financial position, with limited exc eptions. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 158 to have a significant material immediate effect on its financial position or results of operations.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (hereinafter “SFAS No. 157) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Where applicable, SFAS No. 157 simplifies and codifies related guidance within GAAP and does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is encouraged. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 157 to have a significant material immediate effect on its financial position or results of operations.
In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 156, "Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 140," (hereinafter "SFAS No. 156). This statement requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in any of the following situations: a transfer of the servicer's financial assets that meets the requirements for sale accounting; a transfer of the servicer's financial assets to a qualifying special-purpose entity in a guaranteed mortgage securitization in which the transferor retains all of the resulting securities and classifies them as either available-for-sale securities or trading securities; or an acquisition or assumption of an obligation to service a financial asset that does not relate to financial assets of the servicer or its consolidated affiliates. The statement

also requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially recorded at fair value, if practicable and permits an entity to choose either the amortization or fair value method for subsequent measurement of each class of servicing assets and liabilities. The statement further permits, at its initial adoption, a one-time reclassification of available-for-sale securities to trading securities by entities with recognized servicing rights, without calling into question the treatment of other available-for-sale securities under Statement No. 115, provided that the available-for-sale securities are identified in some manner as offsetting the entity's exposure to changes in fair value of servicing assets or servicing liabilities that a servicer elects to subsequently measure at fair value and requires separate presentation of servicing assets and servicing liabilities subsequently measured at fair value in the statement of financial position and additional disclosures for all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006, with early adoption permitted as of the beginning of an entity's fiscal year. Management believes the adoption of this statement will have no impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 155, "Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments, an Amendment of FASB Standards No. 133 and 140," (hereinafter SFAS No. 155). This statement established the accounting for certain derivatives embedded in other instruments. It simplifies accounting for certain hybrid financial instruments by permitting fair value remeasurement for any hybrid instrument that contains an embedded derivative that would otherwise require bifurcation under SFAS No. 133 as well as eliminating a restriction on the passive derivative instruments that a qualifying special-purpose entity may hold under SFAS No. 140. This statement allows a public entity to irrevocably elect to initially and subsequently measure a hybrid instrument that would be required to be separated into a host contract and derivative in its e ntirety at fair value (with changes in fair value recognized in earnings) so long as that instrument is not designated as a hedging instrument pursuant to the statement. SFAS No. 140 previously prohibited a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006, with early adoption permitted as of the beginning of an entity's fiscal year. Management believes the adoption of this statement will have no impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS No. 154”), “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections,” which replaces Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes,” and SFAS No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements -- An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 28”. SFAS No. 154 provides guidance on accounting for and reporting changes in accounting principle and error corrections. Management believes the adoption of SFAS No. 154 had no material impact on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
