PART I

ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This periodic report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to the financial condition, results of operations, business strategies, operating efficiencies or synergies, competitive positions, growth opportunities for existing products, plans and objectives of management. Statements in this periodic report that are not historical facts are hereby identified as “forward-looking statements”.

BUSINESS

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the state of Utah on October 25, 1972, under the name of Electronic Agricultural Machinery Development Corporation.  In 1974, the Company changed its name to Zenith Development Corporation.  In 1980, the Company changed its name to Alternative Energy Resources, Inc.  In 2004, the Company changed its name to Trafalgar Resources, Inc.

Initially, the Company sought to develop and market inventions, including an asparagus harvester, a hot water saving device and a gas alert signal.  Ultimately, none of the inventions were successful and they were abandoned.  The Company ceased to conduct any business and has not conducted any business during the last three years.

Currently, the Company is in the process of investigating potential business ventures which, in the opinion of management, will provide a source of eventual profit to the Company.  Such involvement may take many forms, including the acquisition of an existing business or the acquisition of assets to establish subsidiary businesses.  All risks inherent in new and inexperienced enterprises are inherent in the Company’s business.

The Company is not currently conducting any business, nor has it conducted any business for several years.  Therefore, it does not possess products or services, distribution methods, competitive business positions, or major customers.  The Company does not possess any unexpired patents or trademarks and any and all of its licensing and royalty agreements from the inventions it sought to market in the past have since expired, and are not currently valid. The Company does not employ any employees.

The selection of a business opportunity in which to participate is complex and risky. Additionally, as the Company has only limited resources, it may be difficult to find good opportunities.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to identify and acquire any business opportunity which will ultimately prove to be beneficial to the Company and its stockholders. The Company will select any potential business opportunity based on management's business judgment.

The activities of the Company are subject to several significant risks which arise primarily as a result of the fact that the Company has no specific business and may acquire or participate in a business opportunity based on the decision of management which potentially could act without the consent, vote, or approval of the Company's stockholders.  The risks faced by the Company are further increased as a result of its lack of resources and its inability to provide a prospective business opportunity with significant capital.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES

The Company owns no properties and utilizes space on a rent-free basis in the office of its principal stockholder, Anthony Brandon Escobar.  This arrangement is expected to continue until such time as the Company becomes involved in a business venture which necessitates its relocation, as to which no assurances can be given.  The Company has no agreements with respect to the maintenance or future acquisition of the office facilities, however, if a successful merger/acquisition is negotiated, it is anticipated that the office of the Company will be moved to that of the acquired company.

The Company is not actively engaged in conducting any business.  Rather, the Company is in the process of investigating potential business ventures which, in the opinion of management, will provide a source of eventual profit to the Company.  Therefore, the Company does not presently intend to invest in real estate or real estate securities, nor has it formulated any investment policies regarding investments in real estate, real estate mortgages, or securities of or interests in persons engaged in real estate activities.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 None.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITIES HOLDERS

No matters were submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Company during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008.

At December 5, 2008, the bid price for the Company's Common Stock was $1.30 with no ask price.  All prices listed herein reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commissions and may not represent actual transactions.

Since its inception, the Company has not paid any dividends on its Common Stock, and the Company does not anticipate that it will pay dividends in the foreseeable future. At December 5, 2008, the Company had approximately 231 stockholders.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

The Company had no sales of securities in 2008 or 2007.  On May 14, 2004, the Company authorized the sale of 5,000,000 shares of unregistered Class “A” Voting Common Stock to the directors and officers of the Company for $40,000, as follows:

Anthony Brandon Escobar
4,937,500 shares for $39,500
Sean Escobar
31,250 shares for $250
Anthony Coletti
31,250 shares for $250

This sale of the Company’s common stock was for the purpose of raising operating capital for the Company.

ITEM 6.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

Plan of Operation.

The Company is in the process of investigating potential business ventures which, in the opinion of management, will provide a source of eventual profit to the Company.  Such involvement may take many forms, including the acquisition of an existing business or the acquisition of assets to establish subsidiary businesses.  The Company’s management does not expect to remain involved as management of any acquired business.

As the Company possesses limited funds, the Company will be extremely limited in its attempts to locate potential business situations for investigation.  The Company intends to commence, on a limited basis, the process of investigating possible merger and acquisition candidates, and believes that the Company’s status as a publicly-held corporation will enhance its ability to locate such potential business ventures.  No assurance can be given as to when the Company may locate suitable business opportunities and such opportunities may be difficult to locate; however, the Company intends to actively search for potential business ventures for the foreseeable future.

Management anticipates that due to its lack of funds, and the limited amount of its resources, the Company may be restricted to participation in only one potential business venture.  This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk because it will not permit the Company to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from another.


 
3

 

Business opportunities, if any arise, are expected to become available to the Company principally from the personal contacts of its officers and directors. While it is not expected that the Company will engage professional firms specializing in business acquisitions or reorganizations, such firms may be retained if funds become available in the future, and if deemed advisable.  Opportunities may thus become available from professional advisors, securities broker-dealers, venture capitalists, members of the financial community, and other sources of unsolicited proposals.  In certain circumstances, the Company may agree to pay a finder’s fee or other form of compensation, including perhaps one-time cash payments, payments based upon a percentage of revenues or sales volume, and/or payments involving the issuance of securities, for services provided by persons who submit a business opportunity in which the Company shall decide to participate, although no contracts or arrangements of this nature presently exist.  The Company is unable to predict at this time the cost of locating a suitable business opportunity.

The analysis of business opportunities will be undertaken by or under the supervision of the Company’s management, none of whom is a professional analyst and none of whom have significant general business experience.  Among the factors which management will consider in analyzing potential business opportunities are the available technical, financial and managerial resources; working capital and financial requirements; the history of operation, if any; future prospects; the nature of present and anticipated competition; potential for further research, developments or exploration; growth and expansion potential; the perceived public recognition or acceptance of products or services; name identification, and other relevant factors.

It is not possible at present to predict the exact matter in which the Company may participate in a business opportunity.  Specific business opportunities will be reviewed and, based upon such review, the appropriate legal structure or method of participation will be decided upon by management.  Such structures and methods may include, without limitation, leases, purchase and sale agreements, licenses, joint ventures; and may involve merger, consolidation or reorganization.  The Company may act directly or indirectly through an interest in a partnership, corporation or reorganization.  However, it is most likely that any acquisition of a business venture the Company would make would be by conducting a reorganization involving the issuance of the Company’s restricted securities.  Such a reorganization may involve a merger (or combination pursuant to state corporate statutes, where one of the entities dissolves or is absorbed by the other), or it may occur as a consolidation, where a new entity is formed and the Company and such other entity combine assets in the new entity.  A reorganization may also occur, directly or indirectly, through subsidiaries, and there is no assurance that the Company would be the surviving entity.  Any such reorganization could result in loss of control of a majority of the shares.  The Company’s present directors may be required to resign in connection with a reorganization.

The Company may choose to enter into a venture involving the acquisition of or merger with a company which does not need substantial additional capital but desires to establish a public trading market of its securities.  Such a company may desire to consolidate its operations with the Company through a merger, reorganization, asset acquisition, or other combination, in order to avoid possible adverse consequences of undertaking its own public offering.  (Such consequences might include expense, time delays or loss of voting control.)  In the event of such a merger, the Company may be required to issue significant additional shares, and it may be anticipated that control over the Company’s affairs may be transferred to others.

As part of their investigation of acquisition possibilities, the Company’s management may meet with executive officers of the business and its personnel; inspect its facilities; obtain independent analysis or verification of the information provided, and conduct other reasonable measures, to the extent permitted by the Company’s limited resources and management’s limited expertise.  Generally, the Company intends to analyze and make a determination based upon all available information without reliance upon any single factor as controlling.

In all likelihood, the Company’s management will be inexperienced in the areas in which potential businesses will be investigated and in which the Company may make an acquisition or investment.  Thus, it may become necessary for the Company to retain consultants or outside professional firms to assist management in evaluating potential investments.  The Company can give no assurance that it will be able to find suitable consultants or managers.  The Company has no policy regarding the use of consultants, however, if management, in its discretion, determines that it is in the best interests of the Company, management may seek consultants to review potential merger or acquisition candidates.  There are currently no contracts or agreements between any consultant and any companies that are searching for “shell” companies with which to merge.

It may be anticipated that the investigation of specific business opportunities and the negotiation, drafting and execution of relevant agreements, disclosure documents and other instruments will require substantial management time and attention, and substantial costs for accountants, attorneys and others.  Should a decision thereafter be made not to participate in a specific business opportunity, it is likely that costs already expended would not be recoverable.  It is likely, in the event a transaction should eventually fail to be consummated, for any reason, that the costs incurred by the Company would not be recoverable.  The Company’s officers and directors are entitled to reimbursement for all expenses incurred in their investigation of possible business ventures on behalf of the Company, and no assurance can be given that if the Company has available funds they will not be depleted in such expenses.

Based on current economic and regulatory conditions, management believes that it is possible, if not probable, for a company like the Company, without assets or many liabilities, to negotiate a merger or acquisition with a viable private company.  The opportunity arises principally because of the high legal and accounting fees and the length of time associated with the registration process of “going public”.  However, should any of these conditions change, it is very possible that there would be little or no economic value for anyone taking over control of the Company.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of September 30, 2008, the Company had $5,022 in cash and liabilities of $21,227.  As of September 30, 2008, the Company had working capital of $3,795. The Company had working capital of $5,300 as of September 30, 2007. The Company has only incidental ongoing expenses primarily associated with maintaining its corporate status and maintaining the Company’s reporting obligations to the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Current management has indicated a willingness to help support the Company’s ongoing expenses through the purchase of securities of the Company and loans.

For the twelve months ended September 30, 2008, the Company had $11,455 in expenses related to maintaining its corporate status, paying accounting and legal fees.  Expenses were slightly lower than in previous years as the Company had only limited operations related to completed audits and accounting work and filed documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Management anticipates only nominal continuing expenses related to investigating business opportunities and legal and accounting cost. For the year ended September 30, 2008, the Company had a net loss of $11,505 compared to a loss of $9,511 for the year ended September 30, 2007.

Since inception the Company has not generated significant revenue, and it is unlikely that any revenue will be generated until the Company locates a business opportunity with which to acquire or merge.  Management of the Company will be investigating various business opportunities.  These efforts may cost the Company not only out of pocket expenses for its management but also expenses associated with legal and accounting costs.  There can be no guarantee that the Company will receive any benefits from the efforts of management to locate business opportunities.

Management does not anticipate employing any employees in the future until a merger or acquisition can be accomplished.  Management will continue to rely on outside consultants to assist in its corporate filing requirements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company has not had any revenue since inception.  The Company continues to suffer a small loss related to maintaining its corporate status and reporting obligations.

ITEM 8A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our President and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our President and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and stockholders
Trafalgar Resources, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Trafalgar Resources, Inc. (a development stage company) as of September 30, 2008  and 2007, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, and for the period from October 1, 2003 (date of re-entering development stage) to September 30, 2008. 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 of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America).  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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Trafalgar Resources, Inc.  as of September 30, 2008 and 2007, and the results of its operations,  and its cash flows for the years ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, and for  the period from October 1, 2003 (date of re-entering development stage) to September 30, 2008,  in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2008 and 2007

NOTE 1:  ORGANIZATION AND HISTORY

Organization
The Company was incorporated in the State of Utah on October 25, 1972 as Electronic Agricultural Machinery Development Corporation.  On January 25, 1974, the name was changed to Zenith Development Corporation.  On April 17, 1980, the name was changed to Alternative Energy Resources, Inc. ("AER"). On April 6, 2004, the name was changed to Trafalgar Resources, Inc.

Nature of Operations
In 1972, the Company was originally organized for the purpose of inventing and developing a selective asparagus harvester. The fourth prototype demonstrated in 1976 was very successful. In 1977, the harvester was licensed to Acurex Corporation of Mountain View California ("Acurex"). Acurex continued to develop the machine for about four years, investing more than one million dollars in the project. However, migrant farm workers have been plentiful and there has been little motivation for the asparagus growers to mechanize. Because of this, Acurex lost interest in the project and, as time passed, all of the Acurex employees with any knowledge of the harvester moved on to other employment. Since 1983, their minimum royalty obligations to the Company have not been met and Acurex has lost its exclusive right to manufacture and sell the product. Since that time, AER has continued to develop the harvester by making it smaller and less expensive to manufacture. Significant progress was made during the harvest of 1988 by updating it with the latest electronic sensing technology. Field testing was done in May and June of 1989, which was very successful. In the spring of 1995, the Asparagus Growers Commission had a study done on four different technologies by Battelle Memorial Institute Pacific Northwest Laboratories. However, an economic study of these technologies done by Washington State University determined that none of the technologies including the Haws Harvester were profitable.

In 1979, the Hot Water Saver was invented. This is an energy conservation measure that slowly pushes the unused heat, that remains in the pipes after each hot water draw, back into the water heater tank. Two U.S. patents, and one worldwide patent, were issued to Kim Haws which he assigned to AER. After five years of research and development, including a study by the Battelle Memorial Institute funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, the Company licensed this technology to Metlund Enterprises of Stockton, California. Several thousand of these units were sold by Metlund, but as the energy conservation efforts subsided, sales dropped and Metlund went out of business.

In 1984, the Gas Alert Signal was invented. It is a flashing or beeping knob that clamps on the valve handle of a compressed gas cylinder. It is used to open and close the valve and reminds the user to close the valve when gas is not being used. One U.S. patent was issued in May, 1987. In 1985, AER designed and manufactured 500 audio units and sold them while test marketing the product. In October, 1987, the Company entered into a licensing agreement with Benzco Inc. of LeGrand Oregon ("Benzco"). One of the most obvious marketing channels for this product is welding supply distributors. However, the Company encountered resistance from such distributors because a significant part of their income is derived from the sale of compressed gas and this product would dramatically reduce its consumption. Benzco found it a real challenge to penetrate this market through other channels. They have since discontinued production and are no longer in business. None of the products have been successful. All of the patents relating to these products have expired.

The Company is currently looking for new business opportunities. Management intends to provide working capital loans as needed.

The Company re-entered the development stage on October 1, 2003.

Going Concern Items
The Company's financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Company's continued existence is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to cover operating expenses, to repay its obligations and to invest in future operations. Management has prepared the following plan to address the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
September 30, 2008 and 2007

NOTE 1:  ORGANIZATION AND HISTORY (continued)

The Company intends to look for a new business venture. Management has committed to provide working capital loans as needed.

NOTE 2:  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as footnote disclosures included in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the financial statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Concentrations of Risk
The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts at high credit quality financial institutions. The balances, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.

Financial Instruments
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments" requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. SFAS 107 defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate fair value:

The carrying amount of cash equivalents, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and payable to officer approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

Income Taxes
Income taxes consist of federal income and state franchise taxes. The Company has elected a September 30 fiscal year-end for both accounting and income tax purposes.

The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.109 (SFAS No. 109), "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires the use of the liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes.

Basic Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic income (loss) per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. As of September 30, 2008 and 2007, there were no common stock equivalents. Therefore, the basic and fully diluted income (loss) per share is the same in 2008 and 2007.

Basic and fully diluted net loss per common share, calculated in accordance with SFAS 128, were $(.00) and $(.00) for the years ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Weighted average common shares outstanding were 5,250,929 and 5,250,929 for the years ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recognized on the accrual basis when services are performed.

Advertising
The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising to expense as incurred.

NOTE 2:  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

New Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 161, DISCLOSURES ABOUT DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES (an amendment to SFAS No. 133). This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008 and requires enhanced disclosures with respect to derivative and hedging activities. The Company will comply with the disclosure requirements of this statement upon its effectiveness, if it utilizes derivative instruments or engages in hedging activities.

In May 2008, the FASB issued Statement No. 162, THE HIERARCHY OF GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES. This statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States (the GAAP hierarchy). This statement is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “the Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.”

In May 2008, the FASB issued Statement No. 163, ACCOUNTING FOR FINANCE GUARANTEE INSURANCE CONTRACT - AN INTERPRETATION OF FASB STATEMENT NO. 60. The premium revenue recognition approach for a financial guarantee insurance contract links premium revenue recognition to the amount of insurance protection and the period in which it is provided. For purposes of this statement, the amount of insurance protection provided is assumed to be a function of the insured principal amount outstanding, since the premium received requires the insurance enterprise to stand ready to protect holders of an insured financial obligation from loss due to default over the period of the insured financial obligation. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.

NOTE 3:  INCOME TAXES

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

The income tax expense (benefit) for the year ending September 30, differs from the amount computed at the federal statutory rates as follows:

NOTE 3:  INCOME TAXES (continued)

At September 30, 2008, the Company had a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $55,800 that may be offset against future taxable income through 2026. These losses will start to expire in the year 2011 through 2026. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements because the Company believes that it is more likely than not that the carryforwards will expire unused. The utilization of future losses may be limited under various provisions of the Internal Revenue Code pertaining to continuity of business operations limits and substantial changes in ownership. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the loss carryforwards are offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount. The valuation allowance increased in 2008 by approximately $4,027.

NOTE 4:  COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND LEGAL MATTERS

Management of the Company has conducted a diligent search and concluded that there were no commitments, contingencies, legal matters pending, or liabilities at September 30, 2008 other than as disclosed in the financial statements.

NOTE 5:     RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

At September 30, 2008, the Company owes $527 of interest and $20,000 to its President.  Note 1 bears interest at 4.5% per year.  Interest of $450 per year is due on February 27, 2009.  Interest and principal of $10,450 are due on February 27, 2010.  Note 2 bears interest at 4.5% per year.  Interest of $450 per year is due on February 29, 2009 and 2010.  Interest and principal of $10,450 are due on February 29, 2011.
