ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
On November 10, 2005, Cardiff International, Inc. (“Cardiff”), a Colorado corporation, acquired Legacy Card Company, Inc. (“Legacy”), a privately held Nevada corporation in a triangular merger transaction (the “Merger”). The effective date of the Merger was November 10, 2005. As a result of the Merger, Legacy is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Cardiff.
Legacy was formed as a California limited liability company in August 2001. In April 2005, Legacy was converted into a Nevada corporation.
The Plan of Merger provided for the issuance by Cardiff to the stockholders of Legacy of an aggregate of 18,000,000 shares of Cardiff common stock, no par value per share in connection with the Merger. As a result of the Merger, the former stockholders of Legacy are now the controlling stockholders of Cardiff. As part of the Merger, the officers and directors of Cardiff, resigned from their positions as officers and directors of Cardiff and the officers and directors of Legacy were appointed as officers and directors of Cardiff at the effective time of the Merger.
As a result of the Merger described above, on November 1, 2005 Legacy became a subsidiary of Cardiff. Cardiff International, Inc. is the parent company for the Mission Tuition Rewards program, which is targeted to families focused on saving money for educational needs.
In January 2006, Cardiff changed its fiscal year end to December 31st from September 30th.
Description of Business
Cardiff International, Inc., a tech company who has developed a proprietary software system to track and manage consumer purchases from unlimited businesses: service companies, retailers, merchants, health industry, insurance industry, most consumer orientated businesses. Our software infrastructure tracks all commissions, rebates, discounts providing the public the ability to track all savings regardless of what program they participate in as long as the program utilizes the Cardiff technology.
Cardiff’s first national program launched in the third quarter of 2011 is “Mission Tuition”, a rewards program that helps solve a real need for families – saving for education. The Mission Tuition program is easy to understand and use, and is emotionally positioned to appeal to all consumers. The Mission Tuition Rewards program will become the rewards program of preference for every day spending for families with young children.
The program leverages the two biggest economic forces in society – consumer spending and consumer savings –to create the most unique value-added rewards program in decades.
The potential success of the Mission Tuition program involves the participation of three groups: (i) Cardiff as the marketer, (ii) The merchant coalition, (iii) the member. As a result of our merchant coalition and cash rebate program we expect that the member will become loyal customers of the coalition merchants and participating banks.
Participating merchants provide Cardiff a commission to drive customers to their site or location and Cardiff shares this commission with the merchant. Cardiff will provide a cash rebate on all purchases between made which goes directly into their personal educational savings account . The cash back contribution can be supplemented by additional cash rebates by using the Mission Tuition MasterCard. This issuing bank contribution is applicable no matter where the cardholder shops, therefore encouraging regular and daily usage of the Mission Tuition MasterCard.
What Is Mission Tuition
Mission Tuition has built one of the largest merchant shopping networks in America consisting of all the top name merchants; offering in-store savings and coupon savings with local, regional and national merchants throughout America. With each purchase Cardiff provides members with substantial savings and/or a cash rebate to their educational savings account. Members have thousands of leading retailers to shop and save. Our tax-free educational savings program provides a platform for “educational savings” which encourages regular and daily use of the program. Cardiff’s Mission Tuition program helps families save for college. Mission Tuition encourages members to contribute to their educational savings with contributions generated by on-line and in-store purchases.
4
The Mission Tuition MasterCard
The Mission Tuition MasterCard is a unique credit card that provides the user the opportunity to earn additional cash contributions anywhere MasterCard is honored. Regardless a Mission Tuition merchant or not the user earns additional cash rewards on total spending. Thousands leading retailers are part of our tuition rewards program. Contributions range from 1% to 30% on total purchases plus with the use of the Mission Tuition MasterCard users can earn additional cash rebates.
The Mission Tuition Card is the result of years of development, focus groups and other market research studies. Our brand, image, programming, sales and marketing have been carefully crafted to appeal to virtually every concerned American parent and grandparent, since our card addresses every family’s critical need -- saving for college -- and every family's fear -- not having enough when the time comes, to send junior to college.
Wells Fargo Bank
The Omnibus account will reside at Wells Fargo Bank. Cardholders who elect not to activate a 529 immediately will have the option to participate in Higher Educational Omnibus Savings program residing at Wells Fargo Bank. Once the cardholder reaches the required amount ($250 minimum in most states) Cardiff will notify Mission Tuition members they now qualify for their state’s 529 program providing them the necessary information to designate a State Fund Manager.
Omnibus Account
Cardiff opened an account with Wells Fargo Bank so all cash rebates will go directly into this account prior to any transfer to a 529 State Managed account.
State Managed 529 Plans
Each state has entered into a contractual agreement with accredited fund managers (i.e.) Alliance Bernstein, JP Morgan, CIAA-CREF, Wells Fargo, etc. to manage and administer their 529 programs.
Description of Section 529 Plans
Section 529 plans were authorized by congress to provide tax incentives savings for qualified higher education expenses (QHEE). Earnings in 529 plans are tax-free if withdrawals are made for QHEE, otherwise there is a 10% penalty on the earnings, which are taxed at ordinary rates. Although nonqualified withdrawals are subject to a 10% penalty on the earnings, taxes on the earnings are deferred until withdrawal. Federal legislation passed in 1996 allows states to create section 529 plans.
Section 529 plans are of two types. One is a tuition credit plan and the other is a savings plan. Section 529 provides that qualified state tuition programs shall be exempt from taxation. Such plans must be established and maintained by a State agency or instrumentality thereof. Most states have outsourced the management of their programs to investment advisory or financial service firms. While each state has its own specific requirements, the salient requirements applicable to all plans are:
1. Only cash contributions are allowed.
2. There must be separate accounting for each designated beneficiary.
3. There may be no investment direction by any contributor to, or designated beneficiary under, such program. The account owner may choose among several broad-based investment options once per year.
4. No interest in the program may be used as security for a loan.
5. The program must provide adequate safeguards to prevent contributions on behalf of a designated beneficiary in excess of those necessary to provide for the QHEE of the beneficiary.
6. There must be a penalty imposed on distributions from an account that are not used for QHEE, except death or disability of the designated beneficiary, or to the extent the designated beneficiary receives a scholarship.
Launching Mission Tuition
Cardiff International, Inc. is poised to achieve spectacular success. With over five years of investment, hard work, and hard learning, we believe that our company has the contractual arrangements, functional abilities, and most significantly, the revolutionary “best widget” that has ever been actualized in our sphere. Tying together these factors, we are pleased to offer our partners an undeniable business model.

Cardiff Merchant Coalition
As of December 31, 2011, over 20,000 businesses were part of the Cardiff Merchant Coalition, several with multiple locations throughout America.
Issuer of the Mission Tuition MasterCard
Cardiff entered into an agreement with Amalgamated Bank of Chicago.
Various Agreements
In connection with the activities related to the Mission Tuition Rewards program Cardiff has entered into two agreements with merchant providers. It is intended that each of these providers will continue to provide services to Cardiff which will aid in the marketing of the Mission Tuition.
Employees
Cardiff currently has three employees but anticipates it will hire additional personnel as the Mission Tuition program is launched.
Overview of Cardiff Prior to the Merger
Prior to the Merger Cardiff was an inactive, publicly held, SEC reporting company. Cardiff was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado under the name “Cardiff Financial, Inc.,” on October 14, 1986. Effective April 1989, Cardiff completed an acquisition transaction with, and changed its name to, United American, Inc. The transaction was subsequently rescinded and on December 4, 1989, Cardiff changed its name from United American, Inc., to Cardiff International, Inc. Since that time, Cardiff has been a shell corporation seeking to commence active business operations by acquiring a business opportunity.
Immediately prior to the Merger with Legacy, there were approximately 725,000 shares of Cardiff common stock issued and outstanding. Following the Merger, there were approximately 19,900,000 shares of Cardiff common stock issued and outstanding.
Legacy Acquisition Corp. (“LAC”) was a Nevada corporation, which prior to the Merger, was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cardiff. LAC was formed solely to facilitate the Merger. As a result of the Merger, LAC was merged into Legacy and no longer exists as of the effective time of the Merger.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Operating History:. We commenced active operations during the third quarter of 2011. Potential investors should be aware that there is only a limited basis upon which to evaluate our prospects for achieving our intended business objectives.
The Company will derive its revenues from five different revenue streams:
commissions earned from merchants; interest earned on member’s savings accounts; credit card activation fees, 20bts on all credit card transactions; 10bts on interest earned on revolving credit balances; and an annual renewal fee. After additional testing in July -August 2011, changes were made to the home page and the site launched on a national level in late September and October. There is generally a 90 day waiting period between when the customer makes the purchase and the funds are transmitted to Cardiff.
After the September launch the company immediately obtained 1,200 members. By the end of December the company had 7,500 members. Based upon the awareness of the site and the marketing efforts the company expects that during 2012 the membership will increase at a similar pace. As the membership increases, the usage of the member ship will increase, and the associated revenues will follow.
Google rated the site between a 4 and 5 (five being the highest) for ease of navigation and time spent per visitor to our site.
Possibility of Total Loss of Investment: An investment in Cardiff is a high risk investment, and should not be made unless the investor has no need for current income from the invested funds and unless the investor can afford a total loss of his or her investment.
Additional Financing Requirements: We will likely be required to seek additional financing in order to fund our operations and carry out our business plan. In order to fund our operations and effect additional acquisitions, we will be required to obtain additional capital. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. We do not have any arrangements with any bank or financial institution to secure additional financing and there can be no assurance that any such arrangement, if required or otherwise sought, would be available on terms deemed to be commercially acceptable and in our best interest.
No Public Market for Securities: Currently we have hired an Investor Relations firm to help develop an active public market for our common stock however we can give no assurance that an active market will develop, or if developed, that it will be sustained.
Auditor’s Opinion has a Going Concern Qualification: Our auditor’s report dated March 28, 2012 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and for the period from August 29, 2001 (date of inception) through December 31, 2011 includes a going concern qualification which states that our significant recurring operating losses and negative working capital raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
6
We do not anticipate paying any dividends and any gains from your investment in our stock will have to come from increases in the price of such stock: We currently intend to retain any future earnings for use in our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
We Operate in a Competitive Market: The credit card industry is competitive and new offerings and technologies are becoming available regularly. We cannot guarantee that we will compete successfully against our potential competitors, especially those with significantly greater financial resources or brand name recognition.

PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT’S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS
Our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB under the symbol “CDIF”. During the last three years, there has only been limited trading in our common stock.
As of December 31, 2011 there were 54,194,408 shares of common stock outstanding and approximately 736 stockholders of record of common stock.
Shares Issued in Unregistered Transactions
We issued shares of our common stock in unregistered transactions during 2005. All of the shares of common stock issued were issued in non-registered transactions in reliance on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). As a result of the Merger, Cardiff issued 18,000,000 shares of its common stock to the shareholders of Legacy pursuant to the terms of the Plan of Merger.
No underwriter or placement agent was involved in the above referenced transactions. Cardiff is relying on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities Act.
Dividends
We have not paid cash dividends since our inception and do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future.

Limitation on Directors’ Liability, Charter Provisions and Other Matters
Colorado law authorizes corporations to limit or eliminate the personal liability of directors to corporations and their stockholders for monetary damages for breach of directors’ fiduciary duty of care. The duty of care requires that, when acting on behalf of the corporation, directors must exercise an informed business judgment based on all material information reasonably available to them. Absent the limitations authorized by Colorado law, directors are accountable to corporations and their stockholders for monetary damages for conduct constituting gross negligence in the exercise of their duty of care. Colorado law enables corporations to limit available relief to equitable remedies such as injunction or rescission. Our Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability of our directors to us or to our stockholders (in their capacity as directors but not in their capacity as officers) to the fullest extent permitted by Colorado law.
The inclusion of this provision in the Certificate of Incorporation may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and may discourage or deter stockholders or management from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their duty of care, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise have benefited the Company and its stockholders.
Our Bylaws provide indemnification to our officers and directors and certain other persons with respect to certain matters. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933 Act may be permitted to our directors and officers, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
Our transfer agent is Standard Registrar and Transfer, 12528 South 1840 East, Draper, Utah 84020; Tel: (801) 571-8844.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
Not applicable.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K. All statements contained herein that are not historical facts, including, but not limited to, statements regarding anticipated future capital requirements, our future plan of operations, our ability to obtain debt, equity or other financing, and our ability to generate cash from operations, are based on current expectations. These statements are forward-looking in nature and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause the Company’s actual results in future periods to differ materially from forecasted results.
Overview
Cardiff International, Inc. (“Cardiff”) acquired Legacy Card Company, Inc. (“Legacy”) in a merger transaction in November 2005. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger transaction whereby Legacy, although a subsidiary of Cardiff, was deemed to be the surviving entity for accounting purposes. In January 2006, Cardiff changed its fiscal year end to December 31st from September 30th to have the same year-end as Legacy.
Cardiff International, Inc., a tech company who has developed a proprietary software system to track and manage consumer purchases from unlimited businesses: service companies, retailers, merchants, health industry, insurance industry, most consumer orientated businesses. Our software infrastructure tracks all commissions, rebates, discounts providing the public the ability to track all savings regardless of what program they participate in as long as the program utilizes the Cardiff technology.
Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that may not be readily apparent from other sources. On an on-going basis, we evaluate the appropriateness of our estimates and we maintain a thorough process to review the application of our accounting policies. Our actual results may differ from these estimates.
We consider our critical accounting estimates to be those that (1) involve significant judgments and uncertainties, (2) require estimates that are more difficult for management to determine, and (3) may produce materially different results when using different assumptions. We have discussed these critical accounting estimates, the basis for their underlying assumptions and estimates and the nature of our related disclosures herein with the audit committee of our Board of Directors. We believe our accounting policies related to income taxes, share-based compensation expense, and estimation of the fair value of derivative liabilities involve our most significant judgments and estimates that are material to our consolidated financial statements. They are discussed further below.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Under this method, to the extent that we believe that the deferred tax asset is not likely to be recovered, a valuation allowance is provided. In making this determination, we consider estimated future taxable income and taxable timing differences expected to reverse in the future. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
9
Share-based Compensation Expense
Commencing January 1, 2006, we implemented changes that the FASB issued related to the accounting for employee stock options, on a modified-prospective basis, to recognize share-based compensation for employee stock option awards in our statements of operations. We account for the issuance of stock, stock options and warrants for services based on the estimated fair value of options and warrants using the Black-Scholes pricing model. This model’s calculations include the exercise price, the market price of shares on grant date, weighted average assumptions for risk-free interest rates, expected life of the option or warrant, expected volatility of our stock and expected dividend yield. The amounts recorded in the financial statements for share-based expense could vary significantly based on the subjective assumptions used in the pricing model.
We account for the issuance of stock, stock options and warrants for services from non-employees based on an estimate of the fair value of options and warrants issued using the Black-Scholes pricing model. This model’s calculations include the exercise price, the market price of shares on grant date, weighted average assumptions for risk-free interest rates, expected life of the option or warrant, expected volatility of our stock and expected dividend yield. The amounts recorded in the financial statements for share-based expense could vary significantly if we were to use different assumptions.
Derivative Liabilities
In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model.

Year Ended December 31, 2011 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2010
The Company had limited operating revenues for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.
The Company had operating expenses of $1,089,344 for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to $1,419,278 for the year ended December 31, 2010, representing a decrease of $329,934. This decrease was primarily a result of decrease in stock-based compensation and consulting and outside services which were offset by increases in other operating expenses.
Other income (expenses) decreased $875,082 from 2010 to 2011 primarily because the company incurred interest expense of $329,268 during 2010 as compared to $906,569 during 2011, and a loss from the change in value of derivative liability of $541,037 during 2010 as compared to a loss of $839,167 during 2011.
These factors resulted in a net loss of $2,834,811 for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to $2,289,340 for the year ended December 31, 2010, representing in increase of $545,471.
10
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since inception, the principal sources of cash have been funds raised from the sale of common stock, advances from shareholders, and loans in the form of debentures and convertible notes. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, we had $8,874 and $1,822 of cash and cash equivalents, and total assets amounted to $46,116 and $7,635, respectively.
Net cash used in operating activities was $300,718 and $196,140 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in the amount of net cash used in operating activities during these periods was attributable to the increase in net loss which was offset by the increase in stock-based compensation, amortization of loan discount, change in fair value of derivative liability and interest accrual, and the decrease in accrual of officers’ salaries, accounts payable and accrued expenses compared to 2010.
Net cash used in investing activities was $43,000 and $3,212 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The cash flows from investing activities during the year end December 31, 2011 was attributable to the development of the company's website which is included in property and equipment.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $350,770 and $194,274 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The cash flows from financing activities during the year end December 31, 2011 was attributable to proceeds from the sale of common stock of $57,000 and proceeds from notes payable from related and unrelated parties of $510,000, which were offset by repayments on notes payable of $77,000. In addition, we received $1,350 and repaid $140,080 of shareholder advances during the year ended December 31, 2011.
Since inception, we have incurred operating losses and, at December 31, 2011 we had an accumulated deficit of $15,744,197.
Current liabilities at December 31, 2011 consisted primarily of accounts payable, and accrued expenses, accrued officers’ salaries, accrued payroll taxes and settlement payable to shareholder of $1,625,083, accounts payable to related party of $241,863, amounts due to officer of $485,939, derivative liability of $3,679,746, convertible and non-convertible promissory notes net of loan discounts in the amount of $1,177,990, and accrued interest in the amount of $825,799. Current liabilities at December 31, 2010 consisted primarily of accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued officers’ salaries, accrued payroll taxes and settlement payable to shareholder of $1,185,722, accounts payable to related party of $183,896, amounts due to officers of $324,669, derivative liability of $1,886,224, convertible and non-convertible promissory notes net of loan discount in the amount of $1,053,823, and accrued interest in the amount of $646,102.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain sufficient capital from debt or equity transactions or from operations in the necessary time frame or on terms acceptable to us. Should we be unable to raise sufficient funds, we may be required to curtail our operating plans and possibly relinquish rights to portions of our technology or products. In addition, increases in expenses or delays in product development may adversely impact our cash position and may require cost reductions. No assurance can be given that we will be able to operate profitably on a consistent basis, or at all, in the future.
In order to continue our operations, development of our products, and implementation of our business plan, we need additional financing. We are currently attempting to obtain additional working capital.
Plan of Operation
Our current business plan is described in “Item 1 - Description of Business”.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Cardiff International, Inc. dba Legacy Card Company
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Cardiff International, Inc. dba Legacy Card Company (a development stage company) (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from August 29, 2001 (date of inception) through December 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cardiff International, Inc. dba Legacy Card Company as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from August 29, 2001 (date of inception) through December 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company is in the development stage and has sustained operating losses since its inception and has negative working capital and an accumulated deficit during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters also are described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
Organization and Nature of Operations
Legacy Card Company was formed as a Limited Liability Company on August 29, 2001. On April 18, 2005, the Company converted from a California Limited Liability Company to a Nevada Corporation. On November 10, 2005, the Company merged with Cardiff International, Inc. (“Cardiff”), a publicly held corporation. The purpose of the Company is to develop a co-marketing agreement with a premier national bank to offer an integrated financial program to consumers. Cardiff International, Inc., is a tech company who has developed a proprietary software system to track and manage consumer purchases from unlimited businesses: service companies, retailers, merchants, health industry, insurance industry, and most consumer orientated businesses. Our software infrastructure tracks all commissions, rebates, discounts providing the public the ability to track all savings regardless of what program they participate in as long as the program utilizes the Cardiff technology.
The Company will derive its revenues from five different revenue streams:
commissions earned from merchants; interest earned on member’s savings accounts; credit card activation fees, 20bts on all credit card transactions; 10bts on interest earned on revolving credit balances; and an annual renewal fee. After additional testing in July -August 2011, changes were made to the home page and the site launched on a national level in late September and October. There is generally a 90 day waiting period between when the customer makes the purchase and the funds are transmitted to Cardiff.
After the September launch the company immediately obtained 1,200 members. By the end of December the company had 7,500 members. As the membership increases, the usage of the member ship will increase, and the associated revenues will follow.
Development Stage Activities
As of July 2011, the Company launched its mission tuition program and has begun activating members. The Union mailer has been designed and approved by Union officers and have begun the union campaign through their clearing house in October 2011.
Several states are interested in offering mission tuition to their residents, however the Company is in the process of raising additional funds to work directly to launch a co-op program with each state. We anticipate to work with eight states by the end of 2012. Social media was launched in October 2011 to help create awareness at the same time the union campaign was launched.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company is in the development stage and as such has sustained operating losses since its inception and has negative working capital and an accumulated deficit. These factors raise substantial doubts about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and appropriateness of using the going concern basis is dependent upon, among other things, additional cash infusions. Management has prospective investors and believes the raising of capital will allow the Company to pursue the development of its credit card business. Should the Company not be able to raise sufficient funds, they may cease their operations.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three (3) months or less to be cash equivalents.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are charged to expense when incurred. During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the amount charged to expense was $20,929 and $14,446, respectively. From inception through December 31, 2011, advertising costs was $600,334.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Management uses its historical records and knowledge of its business in making estimates. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Valuation of Derivative Instruments
FASB ASC 815-10, Derivatives and Hedging, requires that embedded derivative instruments be bifurcated and assessed, along with free-standing derivative instruments such as warrants, on their issuance date and in accordance with EITF 00-19 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock” to determine whether they would be considered a derivative liability and measured at their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company adjusted its derivative liability to its fair value and reflected the increase in fair value of $839,167 and $541,037, respectively, as other expense on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level Input:
|
Input Definition:
|
|
Level 1
|
Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date.
|
|
Level 2
|
Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level I, that are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with market data at the measurement date.
|
|
Level 3
|
Unobservable inputs that reflect management's best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

Stock Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock options in accordance with guidance issued by the FASB using the modified prospective method. Under this method, compensation cost recognized during fiscal years 2011 and 2010 includes: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with guidance issued by the FASB amortized over the options' vesting period, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with guidance issued by the FASB amortized on a straight-line basis over the options' vesting period.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at cost. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes at rates based on the following estimated useful lives:

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, depreciation and amortization expense was $11,571 and $1,090, respectively and $250,183 from August 29, 2001 (date of inception) through December 31, 2011.
Income Taxes
The Company was treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes up to April 18, 2005, when it converted to a Nevada Corporation. Consequently, federal income taxes were not payable by, or provided for, the Company. Members were taxed individually on their shares of the Company’s earnings. The Company’s net income or loss was allocated among the members in accordance with the regulations of the Company since April 18, 2005, when the Company was incorporated, the Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The provision for income taxes, if any, represents the tax payable for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Earnings (Loss) per Share
The Company reports its earnings (loss) per share in accordance with guidance issued by the FASB. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cardiff International, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Legacy Card Company. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2011-04”), which amended ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”), providing a consistent definition and measurement of fair value, as well as similar disclosure requirements between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-04 changes certain fair value measurement principles, clarifies the application of existing fair value measurement and expands the disclosure requirements. ASU 2011-04 will be effective for us beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment (“ASU 2011-08”), which amends the guidance in ASC 350-20, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other – Goodwill. ASU 2011-08 provides entities with the option of performing a qualitative assessment before calculating the fair value of the reporting unit when testing goodwill for impairment. If the fair value of the reporting unit is determined, based on qualitative factors, to be more likely than not less than the carrying amount of the reporting unit, the entities are required to perform a two-step goodwill impairment test. ASU 2011-08 will be effective for us beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2011-08 is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

INCOME TAXES
|
At December 31, 2011, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards available for federal tax purposes. Because of statutory “ownership changes” the amount of net operating losses which may be utilized in future years are subject to significant annual limitations. The Company also has operating loss carryforwards available for state tax purposes. At December 31, 2011 the Company has approximately $10,241,000, of state NOL carryforwards that expire through 2031. At December 31, 2011 the Company has approximately $10,347,000 in Federal NOL carryforwards that expire through 2031.
As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, total deferred income tax assets consist principally of net operating loss carryforwards which have been fully reduced by a valuation allowance due to the uncertainty surrounding their ultimate realization.
The Company has adopted guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) that clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold of more likely than not and a measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In making this assessment, a company must determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, based solely on the technical merits of the position and must assume that the tax position will be examined by taxing authorities. Our policy is to include interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. There were no interest and penalties for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The Company files income tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and various states. For jurisdictions in which tax filings are prepared, the Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations by state tax authorities for tax years through 2006, and by the IRS for tax years through 2007. The Company’s net operating loss carryforwards are subject to IRS examination until they are fully utilized and such tax years are closed.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective.
As described below under Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, our management has identified and reported to our audit committee and Rose, Snyder & Jacobs, our independent registered public accounting firm, material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. As a result of these material weaknesses, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of December 31, 2011, our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective.
Report of Management on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected.
Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the company’s internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2011. There were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal controls over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Ineffective controls over the accounting for cash disbursements
Management has not obtained or maintained documentation supporting all cash disbursements. This control deficiency arose during the year ended December 31, 2007 and was identified by management during the annual evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.
Ineffective controls over the recording of equity transactions
Management does not have an adequate process to ensure that all equity transactions are properly recorded in a timely manner.
Lack of segregation of duties and ineffective review process
Management does not have proper segregation of duties and does not have an effective review process in place.
Lack of oversight by Audit Committee
The Company does not have a functioning audit committee due to a lack of independent members and a lack of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls, approvals and procedures.

Audit Committee – Pre-Approval
All services provided to the Company by Rose, Snyder & Jacobs LLP as detailed above, were pre-approved by the Board of Directors and all work of said firm was performed solely by their permanent employees.
The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules that require that before Rose Snyder & Jacobs LLP is engaged by us to render any auditing or permitted non-audit related services, the engagement must be:
● |
approved by our Audit Committee (our entire Board serves as our audit committee); or
|
|
● |
entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the Audit Committee, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular service, the Audit Committee is informed of each service, and such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the Audit Committee’s responsibilities to management.

Under the direction of our Chairman, Daniel Thompson, our Board of Directors, acting as our audit committee, pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors either before or after the respective services were rendered. The Board of Directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by Rose Snyder & Jacobs LLP and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining the firm’s independence.
