1.

Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business

     

The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada, USA, on February 17, 1999 under the name of Braden Technologies Inc. Effective March 26, 2004, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Lincoln Gold Corp., a private company incorporated in the State of Nevada, USA, on September 25, 2003. On April 6, 2004, the Company and its subsidiary, Lincoln Gold Corp., merged to form Lincoln Gold Corporation.

     

The Company is an Exploration Stage Company, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 7 “Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises”. The Company’s principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources. The Company has not presently determined whether its properties contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable.

     

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has never generated revenues since inception and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations and to determine the existence, discovery and successful exploitation of economically recoverable reserves in its resource properties, confirmation of the Company’s interests in the underlying properties, and the attainment of profitable operations. As at June 30, 2006, the Company has never generated any revenues, has accumulated losses of $3,156,067 since inception of the development stage, and has a working capital deficiency of $138,950. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

     

Management plans to complete private placement sales of the Company’s shares in order to raise the funds necessary to pursue its plan of operation and fund working capital. The Company filed an amended SB-2 Registration Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to register and offer up to 2,857,143 units at a price of $0.20 per unit. Each unit will consist of one share of common stock, one-half Class A Warrant and one Class B Warrant.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

     
a)

Basis of Presentation

     

These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company’s fiscal year- end is December 31.

     
b)

Use of Estimates

     

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

     
c)

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

     

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128 “Earnings per Share”. SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-covered method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive.

     
d)

Comprehensive Loss

     

SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at June 30, 2006 and 2005 the Company has no items that represent a comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive loss in the financial statements.

     
e)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

     

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.

     
f)

Property and Equipment

     

Property and equipment consists of office equipment and fixtures, computer software, and computer hardware and is recorded at cost. Depreciation is based on a straight line basis over the following periods: Office equipment and fixtures – five years; computer software – two years; and computer hardware – three years.

     
g)

Long-lived Assets

     

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the carrying value of intangible assets and other long-lived assets is reviewed on a regular basis for the existence of facts or circumstances that may suggest impairment. The Company recognizes impairment when the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its estimated fair value.

     
h)

Mineral Property Costs

     

The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation on September 25, 2003 and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred. Mineral property acquisition costs are initially capitalized when incurred using the guidance in EITF 04-02, “Whether Mineral Rights Are Tangible or Intangible Assets”. The Company assesses the carrying costs for impairment under SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets” at each fiscal quarter end. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs then incurred to develop such property, are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations. During the six month period ended June 30, 2006, mineral property costs totaling $10,000 were impaired as there are no proven or probable reserves on these properties.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

     
i)

Financial Instruments

     

The fair values of cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, due to related parties and note payable approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

     
j)

Income Taxes

     

Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely that not. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes” as of its inception. Pursuant to SFAS No. 109 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.

     
k)

Foreign Currency Translation

     

The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian dollars and are translated into United States dollars using exchange rates at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are remeasured at each balance sheet date at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Foreign currency exchange gains and losses are charged to operations. The Company has not, to the date of these financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

     
l)

Stock-based Compensation

     

Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock-based awards under the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” using the intrinsic value method of accounting, under which compensation expense was only recognized if the exercise price of the Company’s employee stock options was less than the market price of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123R “Share Based Payments”, using the modified prospective transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost is recognized 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 the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R. Results for prior periods have not been restated. There was no effect on the Company’s reported loss from operations, cash flows of loss per share as a result of adopting SFAS No. 123R.

     

All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

     

In fiscal 2004, the Board of Directors approved the 2004 Stock Option Plan for a maximum of 2,500,000 shares available to be granted to directors, officers, employees and consultants. The stock option exercise price is set at the fair market value of the shares at the date of grant. The term of the stock options, once granted, is not to exceed ten years. The vesting period of the stock options is set at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

     

On February 23, 2005, the Board of Directors approved the 2005 Stock Option Plan for a maximum of 2,000,000 shares available to be granted to directors, officers, employees and consultants. The stock option exercise price is set at the fair market value of the shares at the date of grant. The term of the stock options, once granted, is not to exceed ten years. The vesting period of the stock options is set at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     
 

In 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has issued SFAS No. 155 “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140” and No. 156 “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140”, but they will not have a material effect in the Company’s results of operations or financial position. Therefore, a description and its impact for each on the Company’s operations and financial position have not been disclosed.

     
 

In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections – A Replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and SFAS No. 3”. SFAS 154 changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle and applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle. It also applies to changes required by an accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. SFAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. The provisions of SFAS No. 154 are effective for accounting changes and correction of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this standard did not expect have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

     
 

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153 “Exchanges of Non-monetary assets – An amendment of APB Opinion No. 29”. The guidance in APB Opinion No. 29, “Accounting for Non- monetary Transactions”, is based on the principle that exchanges of non-monetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that Opinion, however, included certain exceptions to that principle. SFAS No. 153 amends Opinion No. 29 to eliminate the exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A non- monetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provisions of SFAS No. 153 are effective for non- monetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Early application is permitted and companies must apply the standard prospectively. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

    OVERVIEW

    We are engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties in the State of Nevada and northern Mexico. Our plan of operations for the next twelve months is to conduct exploration of our mineral properties in the State of Nevada and Mexico.

    We hold interests in three groups of mineral properties in Nevada and one in northern Mexico, as described below:

    Name of Property Location
    Hannah Property Churchill County, Nevada
    JDS Property Eureka County, Nevada
    Jenny Hill Property Mineral & Nye Counties, Nevada
    La Bufa State of Chihuahua, Mexico

    Our plan of operations is to carry out exploration of our mineral properties. Our specific exploration plan for each of our mineral properties, together with information regarding the location and access, history of operations, present condition and geology of each of our properties, is presented in Item 2 of our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005 under the heading “Description of Properties.” All of our exploration programs are early stage in nature in that their completion will not result in a determination that any of our properties contains commercially exploitable quantities of mineralization.

    Our exploration programs will continue to be directed by our management and will be supervised by Mr. Jeffrey Wilson, our vice-president of exploration. We will engage contractors to carry out our exploration programs under Mr. Wilson’s supervision. Contractors that we plan to engage include project geologists, geochemical sampling crews and drilling companies, each according to the specific exploration program on each property. Our budgets for our exploration programs are set forth in Item 2 of our Annual Report

    3


    on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005 under the heading “Description of Properties.” These explorations plans will vary based on the results of exploration programs that we complete and based on decisions of our management regarding the prioritization of exploration programs based on funds available to us. We plan to solicit bids from drilling companies prior to selecting any drilling company to complete a drilling program. We anticipate paying normal industry rates for reverse-circulation drilling.

    We are an exploration stage company. All of our projects are at the exploration stage and there is no assurance that any of our mining properties contain a commercially viable ore body. We plan to undertake further exploration of our properties. We anticipate that we will require additional financing in order to pursue full property exploration. We do not have sufficient financing to undertake full exploration of our mineral claims at present and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary financing.

    There is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on any of our mineral properties. Further exploration beyond the scope of our planned exploration activities will be required before a final evaluation as to the economic and legal feasibility of mining of any of our properties is determined. There is no assurance that further exploration will result in a final evaluation that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on any of our mineral properties.

    EXPLORATION ACTIVITY IN THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2006

    Buffalo Valley Property

    Agnico Eagle completed the drilling of five deep reverse circulation holes for 4,850 ft on our Buffalo Valley property near Battle Mountain, Nevada in May 2006. Assay results were discouraging and, as a result, Agnico Eagle determined to abandon its interest in the Buffalo Property under our option agreement with Agnico Eagle for the Buffalo Valley property. As a result of the discouraging results and the determination of Agnico Eagle, we determined to terminate our lease of the Buffalo Valley property with Nevada North Resources (USA), Inc. We no longer have any interest in the Buffalo Valley property.

    Jenny Hill Property

    Kinross Gold Corporation completed permitting for 20 drill sites of which 10 may be drilled this summer or fall. A delay in drilling is expected owing to the lack of an available drill rig.

    La Bufa Property

    We received a bid to complete aerial photography and topographic base map construction on our La Bufa gold property in southwestern Chihuahua State, Mexico. The flight should be scheduled soon.

    Hannah Property

    We conducted a ground magnetometer survey over a portion of the Hannah gold property in Churchill County, Nevada. The survey focused on gold mineralization that was identified by our drilling activities in 2005. Results were encouraging and additional work is planned.

    JDS Property

    We entered into a letter of intent with Golden Odyssey Mining Inc. to joint venture our JDS gold property in the Cortez Trend, Nevada. Golden Odyssey Exploration Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Golden Odyssey Mining Inc (TSE VENTURE:GOE) and is engaged in mineral exploration in the State of Nevada within the Walker Lane, Cortez Trend, and Carlin Trend.

    Under the terms of the Letter of Intent to Joint Venture, Golden Odyssey may earn a 51% interest in the JDS property by performing 6,000 ft of reverse-circulation drilling within 18 months of signing the agreement. The exploration expenditures are to be undertaken and paid for by Golden Odyssey pursuant to the letter of intent. Golden Odyssey will have the option to increase its ownership by 14% by funding US$1.5 million in additional work and may increase its ownership by an additional 10% by funding an additional

    4


    $2.0 million in work, for a total of $3.5 million. Under these terms, Golden Odyssey may ultimately earn a 75% interest in the JDS property, which would leave us holding a 25% in the joint venture.

    PLAN OF OPERATIONS

    Our planned exploration expenditures for the next twelve months on our Nevada and Mexican mineral properties, together with amounts due to maintain our interest in these claims, are summarized as follows:

    (1)

    Kinross anticipates undertaking exploration expenditures in the amount of $200,000 on the Jenny Hill property. Further, Kinross will be required to pay $12,983 to the BLM and local counties and $25,000 to the property owner. These exploration expenditures are to be undertaken and paid for by Kinross pursuant to our letter of intent to our letter of intent to joint venture the property with Kinross. However, if Kinross determines to return the property to us prior to the time when the property payments and/ or maintenance payments are due, then we will be obligated to make the annual claim maintenance payments to the BLM and local counties and the property payments required to maintain the property in good standing.

       
    (2)

    Golden Odyssey has indicated that drilling of the JDS property will commence in 2006. Under the terms of the Letter of Intent to Joint Venture, Golden Odyssey may earn a 51% interest in the JDS property by performing 6,000 ft of reverse-circulation drilling within 18 months of signing the agreement. The exploration expenditures are to be undertaken and paid for by Golden Odyssey pursuant to the letter of intent to joint venture the property with Golden Odyssey. If Golden Odyssey determines to return the property to us prior to the time when the property payments and/or maintenance payments are due, then we will be obligated to make the annual claim maintenance payments to the BLM and local counties required to keep the property in good standing.

    Our general and administrative expenses referred will consist primarily of professional fees for the audit and legal work relating to our regulatory filings throughout the year, as well as transfer agent fees, management fees, investor relations and general office expenses.

    5


    We had cash in the amount of $15,983 as of June 30, 2006 and a working capital deficit in the amount of $138,950 as of June 30, 2006. An amount of $100,000 is included as a short term payable, which is a debt payable to a shareholder who loaned $200,000 to the Company on startup. Half of the amount plus interest has been repaid. Based on our planned expenditures and our working capital deficit, we will require a minimum of approximately $600,000 to proceed with our plan of operations over the next twelve months. This includes repayment of the $100,000. We anticipate that we will require additional financing in order to pursue our exploration programs beyond the preliminary exploration programs for our mineral properties that are outlined above. We are presently taking a registered offering of 2,857,143 units, with each unit consisting of one share of common stock, one-half of one Series A warrant and one Series B warrant. The units are being offered at a price of $0.20 per unit. Our objective is to complete this offering by the end of August 2006, although there is no assurance that we will be able to complete sales of any or all of the units offered. If we achieve less than the full amount of financing that we require, we will scale back our exploration programs on our mineral properties and will proceed with scaled back exploration plans based on our available financial resources. Alternatively, we may look to raise additional funds before the end of 2006 and/or in the early part of 2007.

    During the twelve month period following the date of this quarterly report, we anticipate that we will not generate any revenue. Accordingly and as noted in the above paragraph, we will be required to obtain additional financing in order to continue our plan of operations. We believe that debt financing will not be an alternative for funding additional phases of exploration as we do not have tangible assets to secure any debt financing. We anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock. However, we do not have any financing arranged and we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to fund our exploration programs. In the absence of such financing, we will not be able to continue exploration of our mineral claims. Even if we are successful in obtaining equity financing to fund our exploration programs, there is no assurance that we will obtain the funding necessary to pursue any advanced exploration of our mineral claims following the completion of preliminary exploration. If we do not continue to obtain additional financing, we will be forced to abandon our properties and our plan of operations.

    As we have done in the past, we may consider entering into joint venture arrangements to provide the required funding to pursue drilling and advanced exploration of our mineral claims. Even if we determined to pursue a joint venture partner, there is no assurance that any third party would enter into a joint venture agreement with us in order to fund exploration of our mineral claims. If we entered into a joint venture arrangement, we would likely have to assign a percentage of our interest in our mineral claims to the joint venture partner.

    Our exploration plans will be continually evaluated and modified as exploration results become available. Modifications to our plans will be based on many factors, including: results of exploration, assessment of data, weather conditions, exploration costs, the price of gold and available capital. Further, the extent of our exploration programs that we undertake will be dependent upon the amount of financing available to us.

    PLANNED EXPLORATION ACTIVITIES

    Hannah Property

    We commenced field exploration work on our Hannah property located just east of Reno in the southwestern portion of the Trinity Range during the first quarter of 2005. The field work included obtaining soil samples as part of a soil sampling program. Results from 132 new soil samples were combined with results from 50 previous samples to define a conspicuous soil gold anomaly approximately 3000 feet in length and locally over 500 feet in width. We believe that this identified anomaly warrants more advanced exploration. As a result, we submitted a Notice of Intent to Operate and a Reclamation Bond for drilling 10 exploration holes to the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (the “BLM”). The BLM approved our submission and we commenced track-mounted, reverse-circulation drilling on identified gold geochemical targets in May. This drilling program was completed in early June. Eleven (11) holes were completed for a total footage of 4,815 ft. Two holes, H-11 and H-1, encountered encouraging gold-silver mineralization in the western portion of the target area. Although strong alteration was encountered elsewhere to the east, the remaining holes were barren.

    6


    We have determined that follow up drilling is warranted on the Hannah Property based on the results of the initial eleven hole drilling program that we completed on the Hannah Property, as described above. We have reduced our exploration plans for the Hannah Property in view of our limited financial resources Our plan of exploration for the Hannah Property is as follows:

    Description of Phase of
    Exploration
    Description of Exploration Work Required
    Phase 2 Exploration Drilling
    Drill four shallow reverse-circulation drill holes to test the breccia zone and possible extensions under pediment gravels. This is a reduction from our previous plan to drill 10 holes.

    The anticipated timetable and estimated budget for completion for this exploration is as follows:

    Stage of Exploration Anticipated Timetable for
    Completion
    Estimated Cost of
    Completion
    Phase 2 Exploration Drilling 4th Qtr $45,000

    Jenny Hill Property

    We executed a letter of intent to joint venture the Jenny Hill property with Kinross Gold Corporation on December 9, 2005. Under the terms of the letter agreement, Kinross is obligated to keep the property in good standing with the BLM and local counties and will make the underlying payments to the owner. Upon completing $3.0 million in work expenditures on the property, Kinross will have earned a 60% interest in the property and a joint venture will be formed between us and Kinross. At Kinross’ discretion, Kinross may earn an additional 10% interest by producing a feasibility study on the project. Upon the joint venture reaching a positive construction decision for a mine, Kinross will have the option earn an additional 5% interest by arranging financing instruments on our behalf. Kinross may earn a total interest of 75% in the Property, in which event we would hold a 25% interest. If Kinross elects to drop the property before July 1 in any given year, the lease payment obligations and government claim holding costs shall revert back to us.

    Our plan of exploration for the Jenny Hill Property is to monitor the exploration work to be conducted by Kinross Gold Corporation during 2006. We understand that Kinross will undertake the following exploration activities during 2006, with a minimum anticipated expenditure amount of $200,000:

    Description of Phase of
    Exploration
    Description of Exploration Work Required
    Geologic Mapping &
    Sampling
    Continue mapping and sampling program
       Target Identification Compile all data and identify high-priority gold targets
       Phase 1 Drilling Drill targets – Specifics unknown at this time
       Data Evaluation Evaluate drill data

    Buffalo Valley Property

    We executed a letter to intent to joint venture the Buffalo Valley Property with Agnico-Eagle (USA) Ltd., effective July 26, 2005. Under the terms of the letter agreement, Agnico-Eagle was obligated to keep the property in good standing with the BLM and local Counties in 2005 and to make the underlying payments

    7


    to the Owner, Nevada North Resources (USA), Inc. Upon completing US$3.0 million in work expenditures on the Property, Agnico-Eagle would have earned a 60% interest in the property and a joint venture will be formed. Agnico-Eagle would then have 180 days to elect to earn an additional 10% by preparing and presenting to the Company a feasibility study for the development of a mine on the property. On completion of the feasibility study, Agnico-Eagle would have earned a 70% interest in the property. If the joint venture decided to develop a mine, Agnico-Eagle could have loaned or helped arrange financing for our portion of the required capital in consideration of an additional 5% interest in the joint venture. Exercise of this option would have resulted in Agnico-Eagle holding 75% and us holding 25% of the joint venture. If Agnico-Eagle elected to drop the Property before June 1 in any given year, the lease payment obligations and government claim holding costs shall revert back to us.

    As discussed above, Agnico-Eagle recently drilled five holes on the Buffalo Valley Property. Assay results were discouraging. Subsequently, Agnico-Eagle returned the property to Lincoln and we have dropped the underlying lease with Nevada North Resources (USA), Inc. Accordingly, we do not hold any further interest in the Buffalo Valley property.

    JDS Property

    The early-stage exploration property (1540 acres) is located in north central Nevada in one of the world’s most active exploration areas – the Cortez Trend. The JDS claim block is approximately 17 miles southeast of Barrick Gold’s Cortez Hills' discovery and 8 miles northeast of US Gold’s Tonkin Springs Mine.

    During the second quarter of 2006, we entered into a letter of intent with Golden Odyssey Exploration Inc. to joint venture the JDS gold property, as described above. Drilling is planned to be completed by Golden Odyssey for the summer of 2006 if a drill rig can be contracted.

    La Bufa Property

    Our plan for exploration of the La Bufa Concession in 2006 is as follows:

    Stage of Exploration Anticipated Timetable for Completion Estimated Cost of Completion
    Construct Base Map 3rd Qtr 2006 $25,000
    Property Acquisition 3rd Qtr 2006 $30,000

    Metallurgy 4th Qtr 2006 $5,000
    Data Evaluation 4th Qtr 2006 $15,000
    Total   TOTAL: $ 400,000

    The exploration program will be managed on site by Richard Bybee, P. Geol. State of Wyoming (PG-1505) with extensive experience in Latin America. The Company’s V.P. of Exploration, Jeffrey L. Wilson, P. Geol. State of Utah, will oversee the project. Additional seasoned geologists will be used as warranted. No contracts have been let. Potential drilling companies include Layne, Major, and Dateline. ALS Chemex will likely be the analytical laboratory utilized.

    New Opportunities

    We reviewed several prospective gold properties in Nevada and Mexico during the first half of 2006. We are also planning more site visits to evaluate prospective properties during the current quarter.

    BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

    We were incorporated as Braden Technologies Inc. Effective March 26, 2004, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Lincoln Gold Corp. by issuing 24,000,000 shares of our common stock. We subsequently merged with Lincoln Gold Corp. and changed our name to Lincoln Gold Corporation. Since the acquisition transaction resulted in the former shareholders of Lincoln Gold Corp. owning the majority of our issued and outstanding shares, the transaction, which is referred to as a “reverse take-over”, has been treated for accounting purposes as an acquisition by Lincoln Gold Corp. of the net assets and liabilities of Braden Technologies Inc. Under this purchase method of accounting, the results of operations of Braden Technologies Inc. are included in these consolidated financial statements from March 26, 2004. Our date of inception is the date of inception of Lincoln Gold Corp., being September 25, 2003 and our financial statements are presented with reference to the date of inception of Lincoln Gold Corp.

    Both our net loss and exploration expenditures decreased substantially for six month period ended June 30, 2006 over the corresponding periods in 2005. This decrease is attributable largely to our decreased exploration activities during the first six months of 2006, as outlined under the heading “Exploration Activity in the Quarter Ended June 30, 2006”. We anticipate that our expenses and net loss will remain low throughout the current fiscal year in comparison with 2005 as a result of our reduced exploration activities, our increased joint venture activities and as a result of lower payments required to maintain our interests in our mineral properties. We anticipate continued professional fees as we comply with our obligations as a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We anticipate that we will not earn any revenues during the current fiscal year or in the foreseeable future as we are presently engaged in the exploration of our mineral properties.

    LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    Our cash position at June 30, 2006 was $15,983 compared to $132,806 as of December 31, 2005. We had a working capital deficit $138,950 as of June 30, 2006 compared to working capital of $3,457 as of December 31, 2005.

    Plan of Operations

    We estimate that our total expenditures over the next twelve months will be approximately $470,225 as outlined above under the heading “Plan of Operations”. Based on our planned expenditures and our working capital deficit, we will require a minimum of approximately $600,000 to proceed with our plan of operations over the next twelve months. In addition, we anticipate that we will require additional financing in order to pursue our exploration programs beyond the preliminary exploration programs for our mineral properties that are outlined above.

    If we are unable to achieve the necessary additional financing, then we plan to reduce the amounts that we spend on our exploration activities and administrative expenses in order to be within the amount of capital resources that are available to us. Specifically, we anticipate that we would defer drilling programs pending our obtaining additional financing.

    Outstanding Convertible Note

    We arranged for a $200,000 convertible note during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004. This convertible note is convertible into shares of our common stock at a price of $0.04 per share. If the convertible note was converted, we would be obligated to issue an additional 5,000,000 shares of our common stock. The note accrues interest at the rate of 10% per annum. The principal is repayable on January 28, 2006 and interest is payable annually.

    On September 15, 2005 we completed an agreement whereby we repaid $100,000 of the convertible note along with $35,000 accrued interest and agreed to repay the remaining $100,000 within sixty days. With the completion of the first payment the convertible note was deemed to be repaid in full and both the conversion of debt to common stock along with the warrants was cancelled. We plan to repay the remaining $100,000 owed when our next funding is completed.

    Going Concern

    We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive exploration activities. For these reasons our auditors stated in their report that they have substantial doubt we will be able to continue as a going concern.

    10


    Future Financings

    We will require additional financing in order to proceed with the exploration of our mineral properties. We plan to complete private placement sales of our common stock in order to raise the funds necessary to pursue our plan of operations and to fund our working capital deficit. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing shareholders. We currently do not have any arrangements in place for the completion of any private placement financings and there is no assurance that we will be successful in completing any private placement financings.

    Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

    We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

    CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    Mineral Property Costs

    We have been in the exploration stage since our formation on September 25, 2003 and has not yet realized any revenues from our planned operations. We are primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred. Mineral property acquisition costs are initially capitalized when incurred using the guidance in EITF 04-02, “Whether Mineral Rights Are Tangible or Intangible Assets”. We assess the carrying costs for impairment under SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets” at each fiscal quarter end. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs then incurred to develop such property, are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations. During the six month period ended June 30, 2006, mineral property costs totaling $10,000 were impaired as there are no proven or probable reserves on these properties.

    Stock Based Compensation

    Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for stock-based awards under the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” using the intrinsic value method of accounting, under which compensation expense was only recognized if the exercise price of our employee stock options was less than the market price of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123R “Share Based Payments”, using the modified prospective transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost is recognized 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 the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R. Results for prior periods have not been restated. There was no effect on the Company’s reported loss from operations, cash flows of loss per share as a result of adopting SFAS No. 123R.

    All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

    ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

    As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and

    11


    procedures as of June 30, 2006, being the date of our most recently completed fiscal quarter. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Paul Saxton. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting management to material information relating to us required to be included in our periodic SEC filings. There have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date we carried out our evaluation.

    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 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission'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 our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

    During our most recently completed fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2006 there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

    The term “internal control over financial reporting” is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the registrant's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the registrant's board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

    (a)

    Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the registrant;

       
    (b)

    Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the registrant are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the registrant; and

       
    (c)

    Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the registrant's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
