NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


[1] Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Operations – Bergio International, Inc. [the "Company"] was incorporated in the State of Delaware on July 24, 2007 under the name Alba Mineral Exploration, Inc. On October 21, 2009, as a result of a Share Exchange Agreement (defined below), the corporate name was changed to Bergio International, Inc. and the Company implemented a 12 for 1 forward stock split of its common shares. All share and per share data has been adjusted to reflect such stock split.  The Company is engaged in the product design, manufacturing, distribution of fine jewelry throughout the United States and is headquartered from its corporate office in Fairfield, New Jersey. Based on the nature of operations, the Company's sales cycle experiences significant seasonal volatility with the first two quarters of the year representing 15% - 25% of annual sales and the remaining two quarters representing the remaining portion of annual sales.

On October 19, 2009, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), with Diamond Information Institute, Inc. (“Diamond”), a New Jersey corporation. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding common stock of Diamond, and Diamond became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In addition, the Company acquired all Diamond’s assets and liabilities effective as of the date of the Exchange Agreement. Per the Exchange Agreement, the Company issued 31,022,100 (2,585,175 pre-split) shares of the Company’s common stock to the shareholders of Diamond (approximately .21884 pre-split shares of Company common stock for each share of Diamond common stock), representing approximately 60% of the Company’s aggregate issued and outstanding common stock following the closing of the Exchange Agreement and the Stock Agreement (defined below). The acquisition of Diamond was treated as a recapitalization, and the business of Diamond became the business of the Company. At the time of the recapitalization, the Company was in the exploration development stage and was not engaged in any active business. The accounting rules for recapitalizations require that beginning October 19, 2009, the date of the recapitalization, the balance sheet reflects the consolidated assets and liabilities of Bergio International, Inc. and the equity accounts were recapitalized to reflect the newly capitalized company. The results of operations reflect the operations of Diamond for all periods presented.

In February 2010, the Company sold all its shares in Diamond to an unrelated third party for $225,000 and recognized a gain from the sale of $225,000.

In conjunction with the Exchange Agreement, the Company, on October 20, 2009, entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Agreement”) with certain stockholders of the Company (the “former stockholders”). Pursuant to the Stock Agreement, the Company spun out its 100% interest in Alba Mineral Exploration, Inc., an Alberta, Canada Corporation (“Alba Canada”) to the former stockholders for nominal consideration and the cancellation of all of the shares of common stock of the Company then owned by the former stockholders.  As a result, a total of 39,720,000 (3,310,000 pre-split) shares were cancelled.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements as of June 30, 2010, and for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted for interim financial statement presentation and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statement presentation.  In the opinion of management, the financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2010 and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.  The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected.

[2] Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Other significant accounting policies are set forth in Note 2 of the audited financial statements included in the company’s 2009 Form 10-K.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure 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 estimates.

Revenue Recognition - Revenue is recognized upon the shipment of products to customers with the price to the buyer being fixed and determinable and collectability reasonably assured. The Company maintains a reserve for potential product returns based on historical experience.

Inventories - Inventory consists primarily of finished goods and is valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the weighted average method and average cost is recomputed after each inventory purchase or sale.

Subsequent Events – The Company evaluated subsequent events, which are events or transactions that occurred after June 30, 2010 through August 2, 2010, the date of issuance of the accompanying financial statements.

[2] New Authoritative Accounting Guidance

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued, and the Company adopted, Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Update No. 2010-05 “Escrowed Share Arrangements and the Presumption of Compensation” (“ASCU No. 2010-05”). ASCU No. 2010-05 codifies the SEC staff’s views on escrowed share arrangements which historically has been that the release of such shares to certain shareholders based on performance criteria is presumed to be compensatory. When evaluating whether the presumption of compensation has been overcome, the substance of the arrangement should be considered, including whether the transaction was entered into for a reason unrelated to employment, such as to facilitate a financing transaction. In general, in financing transactions the escrowed shares should be reflected as a discount in the allocation of proceeds. In debt financings the discounts are to be amortized using the effective interest method, while discounts on equity financings are not generally amortized. As it relates to future financings, the adoption of this update may have an effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASC Update No. 2010-06 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” which updated guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. This update requires new disclosures on significant transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy (including the reasons for these transfers) and the reasons for any transfers in or out of Level 3. This update also requires a reconciliation of recurring Level 3 measurements about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis. In addition to these new disclosure requirements, this update clarifies certain existing disclosure requirements. For example, this update clarifies that reporting entities are required to provide fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities rather than each major category of assets and liabilities. This update also clarifies the requirement for entities to disclose information about both the valuation techniques and inputs used in estimating Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. This update will become effective for the Company with the interim and annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2010, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which will become effective for the Company with the interim and annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2011. The Company will not be required to provide the amended disclosures for any previous periods presented for comparative purposes. Other than requiring additional disclosures, adoption of this update will not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have an effect on the accompanying financial statements.

At December 31, 2009, the Company had approximately $1,600,000 of federal net operating tax loss carryforwards expiring at various dates through 2029.  The Tax Reform Act of 1986 enacted a complex set of rules which limits a company's ability to utilize net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards in periods following an ownership change. These rules define an ownership change as a greater than 50 percent point change in stock ownership within a defined testing period which is generally a three-year period. As a result of stock which may be issued by us from time to time and the conversion of warrants, options or the result of other changes in ownership of our outstanding stock, the Company may experience an ownership change and consequently our utilization of net operating loss carryforwards could be significantly limited.

Based upon the net losses historically incurred and, the prospective global economic conditions, management believes that it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized and has provided a valuation allowance of 100% of the deferred tax asset. The valuation allowance (decreased) increased by approximately $(191,800) and $154,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2010 and the year ended December 31, 2009, respectively.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, in its income tax provision.

[9] Stockholders' Equity

On February 23, 2010, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized common shares.  The Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share. At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, there were 71,709,288 and 51,703,500 common shares issued and outstanding, respectively. In October 2009, the Company effected a 12 for 1 forward split of its common stock. All share and per share data has been adjusted to reflect such stock split.

On October 19, 2009, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), with Diamond Information Institute, Inc. (“Diamond”), a New Jersey corporation. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding common stock of Diamond, and Diamond became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In addition, the Company acquired all Diamond’s assets and liabilities effective as of the date of the Exchange Agreement. Per the Exchange Agreement, the Company issued 31,022,100 (2,585,175 pre-split) shares of the Company’s common stock to the shareholders of Diamond (approximately .21884 pre-split shares of Company common stock for each share of Diamond common stock), representing approximately 60% of the Company’s aggregate issued and outstanding common stock following the closing of the Exchange Agreement and the Stock Agreement (defined below). The acquisition of Diamond was treated as a recapitalization, and the business of Diamond became the business of the Company. At the time of the recapitalization, the Company was in the exploration development stage and was not engaged in any active business. The accounting rules for recapitalizations require that beginning October 19, 2009, the date of the recapitalization, the balance sheet reflects the consolidated assets and liabilities of Bergio International, Inc. and the equity accounts were recapitalized to reflect the newly capitalized company. The results of operations reflect the operations of Diamond for all periods presented.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.   These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions.  We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions.  Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain.  Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.  We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.  Further information concerning our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC.

Overview

We are entering into our 20th year of operations and concentrate on boutique, upscale jewelry stores.  We currently sell our jewelry to approximately 150 independent jewelry retailers across the United States and have spent over $3 million in branding the Bergio name through tradeshows, trade advertising, national advertising and billboard advertising since launching the line in 1995.  Our products consist of a wide range of unique styles and designs made from precious metals such as, gold, platinum, and Karat gold, as well as diamonds and other precious stones.  We have approximately 50 to 75 product styles in our inventory, with prices ranging from $400 to $200,000. We have manufacturing control over our line as a result of having a manufacturing facility in New Jersey as well as subcontracts with facilities in Italy and Bangkok.

It is our intention to establish Bergio International as a holding company for the purpose of acquiring established jewelry design and manufacturing firms who possess branded product lines.  Branded product lines are products and/or collections whereby the jewelry manufacturers have established their products within the industry through advertising in consumer and trade magazines as well as possibly obtaining federally registered trademarks of their products and collections.  This is in line with our strategy and belief that a brand name can create an association with innovation, design and

quality which helps add value to the individual products as well as facilitate the introduction of new products.

We intend to acquire design and manufacturing firms throughout the United States and Europe.  If and when we pursue any potential acquisition candidates, we intend to target the top 10% of the world’s jewelry manufactures that have already created an identity and brand in the jewelry industry.  We intend to locate potential candidates through our relationships in the industry and expect to structure the acquisition through the payment of cash, which will most likely be provided from third party financing, as well as our common stock but not cash generated from our operations.  In the event we obtain financing from third parties for any potential acquisitions, Bergio International may agree to issue our common stock in exchange for the capital received.  However, as of the date of this report, we do not have any binding agreements with any potential acquisition candidates or arrangements with any third parties for financing.

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $548,995 compared to $454,307 for the six months ended June 30, 2009.  This resulted in an increase of $94,688 (21%) from the comparable period. The increases in sales in the three and six month periods were primarily a result of our efforts to expand our customer base outside the United States and into Europe and Asia.

Typically, revenues experience significant seasonal volatility in the jewelry industry.  The first two quarters of any given year typically represent approximately 15%-25% of total year revenues, based
on historic results.  The holiday buying season during the last two quarters of every year typically account for the remainder of annual sales.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $179,740 a decrease of $1,682 (1%) from $181,422 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Cost of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $202,231 a decrease of $159,481 (44%) from $361,694 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The decrease in cost of sales in the three and six month periods were a result of our selling product held in inventory with lower material costs which resulted in a higher gross margin.

Gross Profit:

During the three months ended June 30, 2010, our gross profit as a percentage of sales was 59%, compared to a gross profit as a percentage of sales of 31% for the three months ended June 30, 2009.  During the six months ended June 30, 2010, our gross profit as a percentage of sales was 63%, compared to a gross profit as a percentage of sales of 20% for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Our increased gross profit during the three and six month periods in 2010 was a result of our decrease in cost of sales (as described above) and a concerted effort to limit the amount of sales returns allowed which began at the end of 2009.

Selling Expenses

Selling expenses were $95,830 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $13,828 (17%) from $82,002 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Selling expenses were $134,240 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $3,968 (3%) from $130,272 for the six months ended June 30, 2009.   Selling expenses include advertising, trade show expenses, travel and selling commissions.  The increase in selling expenses in the three and six month periods was a result of increased advertising and travel expenses as we began to implement our strategic plan to increase our customer base outside the United States.

General and Administrative Expenses

Total General and Administrative expenses were $124,561 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 versus $93,348 for the three months ended June 30, 2009, an increase of $31,213 (33%). Total General and Administrative expenses were $491,027 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 versus $236,627 for the six months ended June 30, 2009, an increase of $254,400 (108%). The increase in general and administrative expenses is due primarily to an increase in payroll costs and share-based services incurred as we implement our expansion plans while we try to preserve working capital. These cost increases were reduced by a decrease in professional fees expense.  Share-based services and payroll costs increased approximately $200,000 and $68,000, respectively, in the 2010 six month period versus the comparative 2009 period while professional fees decreased approximately $34,000 in the same period. We have limited our share-based service costs in the three months ended June 30, 2010 and plan to continue that going forward.

Income (Loss) from Operations

During the three months ended June 30, 2010, we had income from operations of $37,762 which was an increase of $130,953 (144%) from the loss of ($93,191) for the three months ended June 30, 2009. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, we had loss from operations of ($278,485) which was an increase of $4,199 (2%) from the loss of ($274,286) for the six months ended June 30, 2009.   Our income from operations in the three months ended June 30, 2010 was a result of increases in sales and gross profit while we controlled our operating costs. Our operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2010 is consistent with the comparative June 30, 2009 period, however, our general and administrative expenses and operating loss were negatively affected by $200,000 in share-based service costs that we do not expect to have in future periods, as discussed above.

Other Income [Expense]

Other Income [Expense] in the three months ended June 30, 2010 is comprised primarily of share-based financing costs of $535,160 related to the termination of our securities purchase agreement with Tangiers. Other Income [Expense] in the six months ended June 30, 2010 is comprised primarily of the $225,000 gain from the sale of our subsidiary, Diamond, net of share-based financing costs of $595,160, interest expense of $31,078, and amortization of debt discount of $45,844. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, we incurred interest expense of $24,128 and $45,647, respectively.

Net Loss

We incurred a net loss of $530,848 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 versus a net loss of $117,319 for the three months ended June 30, 2009.  This was an increase of $413,529 in our net loss from the comparable period, attributable to the various factors discussed above. We incurred a net loss of $726,206 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 versus a net loss of $318,775 for the six months ended June 30, 2009.  This was an increase of $407,431 in our net loss from the comparable period, attributable to the various factors discussed above. Net loss in the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, would have decreased by $535,160 and $838,060, respectively, net of share-based finance and service costs, resulting in net income of $4,312 and $81,854, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table summarizes working capital at June 30, 2010 compared to December 31, 2009.

Working Capital
  $ 1,136,595     $ (377,483 )   $ 1,514,078  


As of June 30, 2010, we had a cash overdraft of $2,198, compared to a cash overdraft of $13,717 at December 31, 2009.  Over the next twelve months we believe that our existing capital combined with cash flow from operations and our available financing will be sufficient to sustain our current operations. It is anticipated that we will need to sell additional equity and/or debt securities in the event we locate potential mergers and/or acquisitions.

Our working capital increased as of June 30, 2010 as we entered into various debt restructuring and financing agreements as follows:

In January 2010, we finalized a securities purchase agreement with Tangiers Investors, LP (“Tangiers”) pursuant to which at our discretion we can periodically sell to Tangiers shares of common stock up to a maximum purchase of $25,000,000.  The selling price will be 88% of the lowest volume weighted average price, as defined in the agreement, for the five days immediately following the notice of sale date. In addition, we issued Tangiers 1,111,111 shares of common stock valued at $500,000 for a one-time commitment fee. Effective June 22, 2010, we terminated the securities purchase agreement with Tangiers and expensed the commitment fee and other related fees.

In January 2010, through two agreements with Caesar Capital Group, LLC (Caesar”), we settled approximately $402,000 of stockholder advances and accrued interest through the issuance of 1,885,687 shares of common stock to Caesar.

In February 2010, through an agreement with Socius CG II, Ltd (“Socius”), we settled a $699,999 payment of a credit line with Columbia Bank with the issuance of 14,282,990 shares of common stock (adjusted from an initial issuance of 5,700,000 shares) to Socius.

In April 2010 and May 2010, we settled approximately $247,000 in payables with the issuance of 8,573,680 shares of common stock to Socius.

Accounts receivable at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was $333,666 and $341,695, respectively. We typically offer our customers 60, 90 or 120 day payment terms on sales, depending upon the product mix purchased.  When setting terms with our customers, we also consider the term of the relationship with individual customers and management’s assessed credit risk of the respective customer, and may at management’s discretion, increase or decrease payment terms based on those considerations.  The slight decrease in accounts receivable from December 31, 2009 to June 30, 2010 is primarily attributable to increased collections.

Inventory at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was $1,571,640 and $1,378,271, respectively. Our management seeks to maintain a very consistent inventory level that it believes is commensurate with current market conditions and manufacturing requirements related to anticipated sales volume.  We historically do not have an inventory reserve for slow moving or obsolete products due to the nature of our inventory of precious metals and stones, which are commodity-type raw materials and rise in value based on quoted market prices established in actively trade markets.  This allows for us to resell or recast these materials into new products and/or designs as the market evolves. We enhanced our product line as we began to implement our strategic plan to increase our customer base outside the United States.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses at June 30, 2010 were $287,797 compared to $587,443 at December 31, 2009. The decrease is primarily attributable to the payables settled through issuances of our common stock.

Bank Lines of Credit and Notes Payable

Our indebtedness is comprised of various bank credit lines, term loans, capital leases and credit cards intended to provide capital for the ongoing manufacturing of our jewelry line, in advance of receipt of the payment from our retail distributors.  As of June 30, 2010, we had 2 outstanding term loans. One of the term loans is for $100,000 with Leaf Financial Corp., which is payable in monthly installments and matures in December 2013.  The note bears an annual interest rate of 9.47% and as of June 30, 2010, there was an outstanding balance of $75,854.  We also have a $300,000 term loan with JPMorgan Chase, which is payable in monthly installments and matures in June 2011.  The note bears an annual interest rate of 7.60% and as of June 30, 2010 there was an outstanding balance of $102,706.  Both of these notes are collateralized by our assets as well as a personal guarantee by our CEO, Berge Abajian.

In addition to the notes payable, we utilize bank lines of credit to support working capital needs.  As of June 30, 2010, we have a bank line of credit of $55,000 with JPMorgan Chase Bank, which also requires a monthly payment of $500 and matures in June 2011.  The interest rate is calculated at the bank’s prime rate plus 0.75%.  As of June 30, 2010, we had an outstanding balance of $42,637 at an effective annual interest rate of 4.00%.  The credit line renews annually and is collateralized by our assets as well as a personal guarantee by our CEO, Berge Abajian. Our bank line of credit with Columbia Bank was paid through the issuance of our common stock, as described above, and closed.

In addition to the bank lines of credit and term loans, we have a number of various unsecured credit cards.  These credit cards require minimal monthly payments of interest only and as of June 30, 2010 we have outstanding balances of $166,342.

Convertible Debt

On February 1, 2010, the Company issued an 8% secured convertible note (the “February 2010 Note”) in the amount of $50,000 to Asher Enterprises, Inc. (“Asher”).  The principal and accrued interest is payable on January 2, 2011 or such earlier date as defined in the agreement.  The note is convertible by Asher at any time after the six month anniversary of the issue date and by the Company at any time after issue with conversion periods as defined in the agreement.   The note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of 62.5% of the average of the three lowest trading prices of the stock during the ten trading day period ending one day prior to the date of conversion.

In April 2010, the Company issued an 8% secured convertible note in the amount of $40,000 to Asher.  The principal and accrued interest is payable on January 13, 2011 or such earlier date as defined in the agreement. The note is convertible by Asher at any time after the six month anniversary of the issue date and by the Company at any time after issue with conversion periods as defined in the agreement.   The note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of 62.5% of the average of the three lowest trading prices of the stock during the ten trading day period ending one day prior to the date of conversion.

In May 2010, the Company issued an 8% secured convertible note in the amount of $40,000 to Asher.  The principal and accrued interest is payable on February 11, 2011 or such earlier date as defined in the agreement. The note is convertible by Asher at any time after the six month anniversary of the issue date and by the Company at any time after issue with conversion periods as defined in the agreement.   The note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of 62.5% of the average of the three lowest trading prices of the stock during the ten trading day period ending one day prior to the date of conversion.

Asher is entitled to have all shares issued upon conversion of the above notes listed upon each national securities exchange or other automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of the Company common stock are then listed.

On November 16, 2009, the Company issued a 7% Secured Convertible Debenture (the “November 2009 Debenture”) in the amount of $25,000 to Tangiers Capital, LLC. The principal and accrued interest is payable on August 16, 2010 or such earlier date as defined in the agreement. Upon issuance, the November 2009 Debenture, including any accrued interest, was convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of 80% of the average of the two lowest trading prices, determined on the then current trading market for the Company’s common stock, for the ten trading days prior to conversion, at the option of the holder. The holder is entitled to “piggyback” registration rights on shares of common stock issued upon conversion

Satisfaction of our cash obligations for the next 12 months.

A critical component of our operating plan impacting our continued existence is to efficiently manage the production of our jewelry lines and successfully develop new lines through our Company or through possible acquisitions and/or mergers. Our ability to obtain capital through additional equity and/or debt financing, and joint venture partnerships will also be important to our expansion plans. In the event we experience any significant problems assimilating acquired assets into our operations or cannot obtain the necessary capital to pursue our strategic plan, we may have to reduce the growth of our operations. This may materially impact our ability to increase revenue and continue our growth.

Over the next twelve months we believe that our existing capital combined with cash flow from operations will be sufficient to sustain our current operations.  However, in the event we locate potential acquisitions and/or mergers we will most likely need to sell equity and/or debt securities.

Summary of product and research and development that we will perform for the term of our plan.

We are not anticipating significant research and development expenditures in the near future.

Expected purchase or sale of plant and significant equipment.

We do not anticipate the purchase or sale of any plant or significant equipment; as such items are not required by us at this time.

Significant changes in the number of employees.

We currently have 3 full-time employees and 2 part-time employees.  Of our current employees, 1 is sales and marketing personnel, 2 are manufacturing and 2 hold administrative and executive positions.  None of our employees are subject to any collective bargaining agreements.  We do not anticipate a significant change in the number of full time employees over the next 12 months.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, results or operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is deemed material.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparing financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period.

Accounts Receivable.  Management periodically performs a detailed review of amounts due from customers to determine if accounts receivable balances are impaired based on factors affecting the collectability of those balances.

 Long-Lived Assets.  In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, long-lived tangible assets subject to depreciation or amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  If an asset is determined to be impaired, the loss is measures by the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its fair value as determined by an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows.  As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the future cash flows estimated by management in their impairment analyses may not be achieved.

Equity-Based Compensation. The Company accounts for equity based compensation transactions with employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 718, “Compensation; Stock Compensation” (“Topic No. 718”). Topic No. 718 requires the recognition of the fair value of equity-based compensation in net income. The fair value of the Company’s equity instruments are estimated using a Black-Scholes option valuation model. This model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions and elections including expected stock price volatility and the estimated life of each award. In addition, the calculation of equity-based compensation costs requires that the Company estimate the number of awards that will be forfeited during the vesting period. The fair value of equity-based awards granted to employees is amortized over the vesting period of the award and the Company elected to use the straight-line method for awards granted after the adoption of Topic No. 718.

The Company accounts for equity based transactions with non-employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“Topic No. 505-50”). Topic No. 505-50 establishes that equity-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, which ever is more reliably measurable. When the equity instrument is utilized for measurement the fair value of the equity instrument is estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. In general, the Company recognizes an asset or expense in the same manner as if it was to receive cash for the goods or services instead of paying with or using the equity instrument.

Revenue Recognition. The Company’s management recognizes revenue when realized or realizable and earned.  In connection with revenue recorded, the Company establishes a sales returns and allowances reserve for anticipated merchandise to be returned.  The estimated percentage of sales to be returned is based on the Company’s historical experience of returned merchandise as prescribed by promulgated accounting principles. Also, management calculates an estimated gross profit margin on returned merchandise deriving a cost for the anticipated returned merchandise also based on the Company’s historical operations.

The Company’s sole revenue producing activity as a manufacturer and distributor of upscale jewelry is affected by movement in fashion trends and customer desire for new designs, varying economic conditions affecting consumer spending and changing product demand by retailers affecting their desired inventory levels.

Therefore, management’s estimation process for merchandise returns can result in actual amounts differing from those estimates.  This estimation process is susceptible to variation and uncertainty due to the challenges faced by management to comprehensively discern all conditions affecting future merchandise returns whether prompted by fashion, the economy or customer relationships.  Ultimately, management believes historical factors provide the best indicator of future conditions based on the Company’s responsiveness to changes in fashion trends, the cyclical nature of the economy in conjunction with the number of years in business and consistency and longevity of its customer mix.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued, and the Company adopted, Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Update No. 2010-05 “Escrowed Share Arrangements and the Presumption of Compensation” (“ASCU No. 2010-05”). ASCU No. 2010-05 codifies the SEC staff’s views on escrowed share arrangements which historically has been that the release of such shares to certain shareholders based on performance criteria is presumed to be compensatory. When evaluating whether the presumption of compensation has been overcome, the substance of the arrangement should be considered, including whether the transaction was entered into for a reason unrelated to employment, such as to facilitate a financing transaction. In general, in financing transactions the escrowed shares should be reflected as a discount in the allocation of proceeds. In debt financings the discounts are to be amortized using the effective interest method, while discounts on equity financings are not generally amortized. As it relates to future financings, the adoption of this update may have an effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASC Update No. 2010-06 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” which updated guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. This update requires new disclosures on significant transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy (including the reasons for these transfers) and the reasons for any transfers in or out of Level 3. This update also requires a reconciliation of recurring Level 3 measurements about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis. In addition to these new disclosure requirements, this update clarifies certain existing disclosure requirements. For example, this update clarifies that reporting entities are required to provide fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities rather than each major category of assets and liabilities. This update also clarifies the requirement for entities to disclose information about both the valuation techniques and inputs used in estimating Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. This update will become effective for the Company with the interim and annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2010, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which will become effective for the Company with the interim and annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2011. The Company will not be required to provide the amended disclosures for any previous periods presented for comparative purposes. Other than requiring additional disclosures, adoption of this update will not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have an effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item 4T.  Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2010.  This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Berge Abajian.  Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2010, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.  There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2010.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls

Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving our objectives and our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

Aside from the following, we are not a party to any pending legal proceeding. We are not aware of any pending legal proceeding to which any of our officers, directors, or any beneficial holders of 5% or more of our voting securities are adverse to us or have a material interest adverse to us.

Effective on April 6, 2010, the Board of Directors of Bergio International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company") authorizied the issuance of 7,800,000 shares of common stock of the Company to Socius CG II, Ltd.
