PART I

ITEM I: BUSINESS

Littlefield Corporation is a holding company incorporated in Delaware in 1994. Its businesses develop, own and operate charitable bingo halls with solely domestic U.S. operations in Texas, Alabama, Florida and South Carolina; collectively these are referred to as “Littlefield Entertainment”. As of January 2011, the Company operated 39 charitable bingo halls.

CURRENT YEAR EVENTS:

In 2010, we continued to execute our growth strategy and expand our margins despite a slow economy. The Company surpassed its prior annual record level of bingo revenue from continuing operations reaching approximately $9.64 million in revenue while expanding its gross margin by 12% to approximately $3.25 million or 34% of revenue from 30% in the prior year.

Growth and expansion

We completed two acquisitions of bingo halls in January and December 2010 and also assumed direct promotional management of an additional bingo hall for a former real estate tenant in December.

During 2010, certain Texas start-up halls had a measurable unfavorable impact on earnings of $0.5 million. In January 2011, we reached a settlement affecting one of these halls. This settlement will impact the Company by reducing ongoing legal expenses, improving returns and leaves us with a stronger position in the local nighttime bingo market.

Since the reinstatement of our share repurchase program in 2009, we have repurchased approximately 853,000 shares of our common stock at an average price of $0.70.

Legal matters

The Company’s 2010 results include approximately $625,000 of legal expense for South Carolina, Texas and its Furtney litigation to resolve certain legal matters and respond to certain regulatory changes both enacted and potential in South Carolina and Texas. As noted above we resolved a case in Texas. These expenses should be more manageable as we wind-down these matters.

Additionally, the Company recorded a charge of approximately $122,000 in its first quarter 2010 results to reflect an arbitration judgment.

The legal matters are discussed more thoroughly in Item 3 – Legal Proceedings and Note 15 of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net income

The Company posted a net loss from continuing operations of approximately $193,000 or a net loss of $0.01 per share compared to a net loss of approximately $57,000 or a net loss of $0.00 per share in the prior year.

PRINCIPAL BUSINESS AND MARKETS

LITTLEFIELD ENTERTAINMENT. Our business is the management of charitable bingo halls. We might be called a “commercial lessor”, “charitable bingo lessor”, “bingo conductor” or “bingo promoter” depending upon the jurisdiction in which we are operating.

“Littlefield Entertainment” owns and operates 39 charitable bingo halls. Of these 39 bingo halls, fifteen (15) are in Texas (Austin-1, Abilene-1, Amarillo-3, McAllen-3, Lubbock-2, Odessa-1, Midland-1, San Angelo-2 and San Antonio-1), three (3) are in Alabama (Montgomery-2 and Mobile-1), twenty (20) are in South Carolina (Charleston-5, Georgetown-1, Goose Creek-2, Walterboro-1, Conway-1, Warrenville-1, Greer-4, Sumter-1, Columbia metro-4) and one (1) is in Florida.

A new charity bingo hall is created when we contract with a real estate landlord, through a long-term real estate lease, to rent premises suitable for a bingo hall. We engage in market, demographic and location research in order to ensure the suitability of a specific site for the development of a new bingo hall. We then develop the physical plant for a bingo hall based upon our expertise; and, attract the requisite number of charities for the use of the premises and the services provided to support the charities’ conduct of bingo operations.

When we invest in a new start up bingo hall, we anticipate recovering our entire investment (usually $200,000 to $500,000) within one to two years after the attainment of a stable and predictable operating environment (typically 6-12 months after the initiation of operations with a full contingent of charities).

In addition to starting up new charitable bingo halls, we may acquire other operations that also engage in the management of charitable bingo halls. We anticipate an immediate going in return of 25-35% on our entire investment and the ability to sustain that level of performance for a ten (10) year period, absent only regulatory or environmental changes beyond our ability to predict or control.

Since 2008, the Company has invested approximately $2.7 million in the acquisition of bingo halls. These acquisitions included a net addition of nine halls. Subsequent to purchasing these halls, the Company has made certain capital expenditures and leasehold improvements to improve the operating environment and has applied its expertise to the extent allowed by the respective regulations in the jurisdiction of each hall. The average rate of return of these nine acquired halls collectively has been approximately 36%.

In 2010, our charitable bingo halls raised approximately $3,325,000 in charitable funding for those charities that operate in our bingo halls. We helped raise $575,000 for charities in South Carolina, $395,000 for charities in Alabama, $80,000 in Florida and $2,275,000 for charities in Texas. Since 2001, our Company has helped raise over $31 million for charity.

Competition: The charitable bingo market is a fragmented market, often with operators who are individuals or partnerships, with no one dominant competitor. Competition also includes charitable organizations. From region to region there may be a dominant player in their immediate markets, but we are the only publicly traded bingo promoter with more than just a regional presence.

Our unit of competition is an individual bingo hall. Competition is further subdivided by the time of day or night that a bingo hall operates. A bingo hall could generally be a daytime hall, a nighttime hall or a late night hall. In certain jurisdictions, we would like to operate at all three times. An individual bingo hall competes within a trade area of approximately fifteen (15) miles against other bingo halls operating at the same time. Within a larger market (e.g. Charleston, South Carolina) the presence of a number of bingo halls may not give rise to significant competition. In general, we believe that approximately one to one and a half percent (1-1.5%) of the population in a city of more than 100,000 are meaningful and consistent bingo players.

The principal methods of competition used, once an ideal location is obtained, include providing clean, safe and attractive facilities, creating customer loyalty through various marketing efforts, and other promotional programs to stimulate interest in not only playing the game of bingo, but in frequenting our bingo locations specifically. Our combined industry knowledge also gives us a competitive advantage when negotiating with the various charities to use our facilities for their operations. Direct advertising is not permitted under the local bingo regulations by the promoter’s organizations in some jurisdictions and is permitted in others.

Regulation: In 2010, we operated in Texas, Alabama, Florida and South Carolina, and each state regulates charitable bingo as authorized by its statutes.

In Texas, the Texas Lottery Commission regulates bingo and its rules are uniform throughout the State. In general, a bingo hall can contain up to seven (7) charities and can operate seven (7) days per week and conduct as many as fourteen (14) bingo sessions per week.

In South Carolina, the South Carolina Department of Revenue is the principal regulator for bingo. Its rules are uniform throughout the State. In general, a bingo hall can contain a single charity and can only operate five (5) sessions per week with a Class B license or every day with a Class C license. In general, a Class C hall is permitted to play more often, but is required to pay out less money than a Class B hall.

In Alabama, bingo can only be played in counties that have a “local bill” authorizing bingo that has been passed by the state legislature. The local county sheriff is the principal regulator of bingo and regulations vary from county to county. In general, a bingo hall can contain up to ten (10) charities and can operate seven (7) days per week and conduct up to twenty-one (21) bingo sessions per week.

In Florida, charitable bingo is authorized by the Florida Statutes. The local state attorney or county sheriff is the principal regulator of bingo.

Employees:

As of the report date, we had approximately twenty-four (24) employees and six (6) directors, of which one is a full time employee. Of the current employment level, twelve (12) are with Littlefield Entertainment and twelve (12) are at corporate headquarters in Austin, Texas. Littlefield Entertainment consists of eight (8) full time employees and four (4) part time employees.

ITEM IB – UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

None

ITEM 2 – PROPERTIES

Our principal executive offices, which we own, are located at 2501 North Lamar Boulevard, Austin, Texas 78705. We lease space for the majority of our bingo operations in Texas, Alabama, South Carolina and Florida and in turn sublease the bingo centers to various charities. Some of our leases require real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance and repair expenses to be paid in addition to rent. We own three bingo centers. We believe the condition of our leased and owned properties is good. No single property, leased or owned, amounts to 10% or more of our total assets.

ITEM 7 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Our Company was formed in 1994 as a Delaware corporation to consummate the acquisition of charitable bingo halls and other legal gaming operations, and completed an initial public offering in December of 1994. We operate primarily through wholly owned subsidiaries in Texas, Alabama, South Carolina and Florida. We intend to grow our business through acquisitions and the selective start up of charitable bingo halls in markets in which we currently operate and other attractive markets.

The statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K relating to matters that are not historical facts, including, but not limited to statements found in this “Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, are forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Factors that could cause actual future results to differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to the impact of government regulation and taxation, customer attendance, spending, competition, general economic conditions, and other risks and uncertainties as discussed in this Annual Report.

The discussion of results for 2010 and 2009 in this report focuses on the Company’s results of continuing operations which is comprised of the Company’s Entertainment business’ charitable bingo operations in four states: Texas, South Carolina, Alabama and Florida.

In April 2009, the Company disposed of Premiere Tents & Events (PTE) event rental business thereby strategically aligning its focus on its Entertainment business. The disposition of PTE was the final transaction in the disposition of the Company’s Hospitality segment which had included units engaged in catering and party rentals. The disposition of the PTE business unit’s assets resulted in a gain of approximately $404,000. In 2008, the disposal of the catering unit’s assets resulted in a gain of approximately $474,000.

Results of Operations

During 2010, the Company achieved a record level of revenue from continuing operations which increased to approximately $9,635,000, and the Company posted a consolidated net loss from continuing operations of approximately $193,000 versus a loss from continuing operations of approximately $57,000 in the prior year. Excluding the notable items discussed more fully under Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations below, income from continuing operations was approximately $1,173,000, down approximately $350,000 from the prior year period.

During 2009, the Company reached a record level of revenue from continuing operations which increased 12% over the comparable prior year period and the Company posted consolidated net income of approximately $236,000. The Company reduced its loss from continuing operations from the prior year by approximately $4.3 million to a loss of approximately $57,000. Excluding the notable items discussed more fully under Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations below, income from continuing operations was approximately $1,523,000, up approximately $868,000 over the prior year period.

Revenues

The following table sets forth the Company’s revenues from continuing operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009:

	2010		2009		Change			% Change
Total Revenues	$	9,635,000	$	9,609,000	$	26,000			0	%
Entertainment		9,558,000		9,531,000		27,000			0	%
Texas		4,643,000		5,092,000		(449,000	)		(9	%)
South Carolina		3,450,000		2,990,000		460,000			15	%
Alabama / Florida		1,465,000		1,449,000		16,000			1	%
Other	$	77,000	$	78,000	$	(1,000	)	NM

During 2010, revenues from continuing operations increased approximately $26,000 from 2009. Entertainment revenue increased approximately $27,000 with the contribution of revenue from two new halls acquired since the beginning of last year in South Carolina offsetting weakness at certain halls in Texas. Other revenue includes other ancillary services and miscellaneous revenue not reported as Entertainment revenue.

Entertainment revenues by state were as follows:

	2010	2009	Change
Texas	49%	54%	(5%)
South Carolina	36%	31%	5%
Alabama / Florida	15%	15%	0%

Gross Profit and Costs and Expenses

The table below summarizes the Company’s gross profit from continuing operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. Gross profit percent (gross profit as a percent of sales) increased to 34% from 30% in 2009.

	2010		2009		Change			% Change
Total Gross Profit	$	3,252,000	$	2,902,000	$	350,000			12%
Entertainment		3,175,000		2,824,000		351,000			12%
Other	$	77,000	$	78,000	$	(1,000	)	NM

Overall, total costs and expenses decreased 5% from the comparable twelve-month prior year period mainly as a result of lower costs associated with the start-up of new halls and certain hall closures ($578,000); these were partially offset by higher rent and utility costs related to newly acquired bingo halls ($30,000), depreciation and amortization expense ($68,000) and salaries ($51,000).

Direct salaries and other compensation remained relatively stable from the prior year except for the addition of additional staff to manage the increased size of our portfolio of halls.

Rent and utilities in 2010 decreased approximately $379,000 or 12% from 2009, largely due to the closure of certain Texas halls. In 2010 and 2009, we did not recognize lease costs on a straight-line basis as provided in FASB ASC 840, Leases (FASB ASC 840). Instead, lease costs were recognized based on payments made or accrued during each month. If the Company had recognized lease expense on a straight-line basis in 2010 and 2009, total lease costs would not have materially changed the Company’s financial results. In general, the Company enters into long term leases underlying its operations. At the same time, the Company generally enters into agreements which are renewed annually with its customers. This permits the Company to adjust its customer agreements in response to general price increases and limits the effect of lease escalation clauses. Generally, the Company’s leases require payments of rent and a pro-rata share of real estate maintenance, taxes and insurance.

Other direct operating costs in 2010 declined approximately $74,000 or 4% from the prior year, mainly resulting from lower costs such as advertising, promotions and development expenses associated with the closure of certain halls in Texas during 2009.

Depreciation and amortization expense totaled approximately $868,000 ($789,000 Cost of Services plus $79,000 G&A) in 2010 versus $818,000 in the prior year. The increase in depreciation is mainly attributed to hall renovations last year.

We measure corporate overhead as general and administrative expenses, excluding related depreciation expense, the noted other and legal expenses and stock-based compensation. Corporate overhead totaled approximately $2,267,000 in 2010, compared to approximately $2,085,000 in 2009, the increase of approximately $182,000 mainly reflects acquisition related activity including the addition of staff and expenses to support our acquisition growth strategy. We measure corporate overhead because it provides management with a tool to assess performance consistently over different financial periods.

The following table reconciles general and administrative expenses under GAAP to our corporate overhead measure.

Corporate overhead	2010			2009
General and administrative expenses (GAAP basis)	$	3,075,003		$	2,796,599
Stock-based compensation		(103,078	)		(202,504	)
Noted legal expenses		(625,081	)		(401,619	)
Depreciation and amortization		(79,675	)		(97,644	)
Acquisition and divestiture consideration		---			(10,000	)
Corporate overhead (non-GAAP basis)	$	2,267,169		$	2,084,832

Other income and expense was an expense of approximately $172,000 for 2010, compared to approximately $179,000 in 2009. The difference mainly stems from lower debt levels and lower interest rates.

Our income tax expense for 2010 was approximately $75,000 compared to $106,000 in 2009, all of which is related to the expected effective tax rate for state income taxes. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had a net operating loss available for carryover on its federal income taxes of approximately $13,200,000.

Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations

During 2010, income (loss) from continuing operations was a loss of approximately $193,000; a loss of ($0.01) per basic share and a loss of ($0.01) per fully diluted share. During 2009, income (loss) from continuing operations was a loss of approximately $57,000; a loss of ($0.00) per basic share and a loss of ($0.00) per fully diluted share. The weighted average number of basic common shares outstanding totaled 17,815,114 in 2010, compared to 17,583,785 in 2009. The increase in shares outstanding mainly represents shares issued as stock-based compensation.

Full year 2010 income (loss) from continuing operations include approximately $1,367,000 of notable items:

·	$625,000 of legal expense for South Carolina, Texas and its Furtney litigation,

·	$502,000 of expense associated with the start-up of halls in Texas,

·	$122,000 arbitration judgment,

·	$103,000 for non-cash stock-based compensation and

·	$15,000 for other asset disposals.

The Company continues to reduce the negative impact of the Texas start-up operations. Its legal fees should be more manageable with settlement of the case in Texas reported in the first quarter of 2011. The Company expects the Furtney litigation to conclude in 2011.

Full year 2009 income (loss) from continuing operations includes approximately $1,579,000 of notable items: $1,079,000 of expense associated with the start-up of halls in Texas, $402,000 of legal expense for South Carolina, Florida, Texas and its Furtney litigation, $8,000 other asset disposals, $10,000 acquisition consideration and

$202,000 for non-cash stock-based compensation which were partially offset by a $122,000 reduction of estimated prior year reserve for incentive compensation.

Adjusted for the noted items above, the adjusted income from continuing operations during 2010 was approximately $1,173,000 and basic earnings per share were $0.07 per share in 2009, versus an adjusted income from continuing operations of approximately $1,523,000 and basic earnings per share of $0.09 last year. Our management uses adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations to measure performance consistently over different financial periods.

The following table reconciles operating income (loss) from continuing operations under GAAP to our adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations measure.

Income (loss) from continuing operations	2010			2009
Operating income (loss) (GAAP basis)	$	(193,306	)	$	(56,731	)

Asset disposals		15,190			8,157
Income (loss) excluding noted items (non-GAAP basis)	$	1,173,302		$	1,522,805

Net Income (Loss)

The increase in shares outstanding mainly represents shares issued as stock-based compensation.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled approximately $1,102,000 for 2010, compared to net cash used in investing activities of approximately $241,000 for 2009. For 2010, net cash used in investing activities totaled approximately $1,207,000 for net capital expenditures mainly for bingo hall renovations, leasehold improvements and the acquisition of halls in South Carolina; these were partially offset by an approximately $105,000 reduction in notes receivable associated with the sale of the event rental business unit. In 2009, cash used in investing activities totaled approximately $604,000 for net capital expenditures mainly for bingo hall renovations, leasehold improvements and the acquisition of a hall in South Carolina.

At December 31, 2010, we had approximately $17,966,000 in total assets with total liabilities of approximately $4,744,000 and approximately $13,222,000 of shareholders’ equity. Total assets include approximately $2,915,000 in cash, $525,000 of net accounts receivable, other current assets of $293,000, $7,260,000 of net property and equipment, $6,414,000 of intangible assets, $268,000 for a note related to the sale of the event rental business and $291,000 of other assets. Total liabilities primarily consist of accounts payable of approximately $305,000 and notes payable obligations of approximately $3,456,000 and accrued and related-party liabilities of $873,000 and $110,000 respectively.

In 2011, we plan to continue to use our cash generated from operations to make leasehold improvements and renovations in our bingo operations. We also plan to use advantageous combinations of bank financing, seller financing, stock, and cash on hand to acquire or develop new bingo halls when favorable terms can be obtained.

Financial Risk Management

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. We have no off-balance sheet debt.

Market Risk. In the normal course of business, we employ established procedures to manage our exposure to changes in the market value of our investments. There were no significant investments in marketable securities at

December 31, 2010 or 2009. The Company holds its funds in cash and certificates of deposit generally insured by the FDIC with uninsured amounts setting off loans payable. Generally, the Company minimizes exposure to interest rate fluctuations on its long-term debt arrangements by entering into fixed rate notes payable or establishing interest rate collars within which a variable interest rate on long-term debt may fluctuate. As a result of these terms the market risk associated with interest rate fluctuations on long-term debt is not material.

ITEM 9A – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls

The Company’s management evaluated, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed with the objective of ensuring that (i) information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) the information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Based upon their evaluation, our management including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15 d – 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act) are effective, as of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 10-K, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms.

Management Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in

reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company, (ii) 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 Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management assessed our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, which was the end of our fiscal year. Management based its assessment on criteria established in the SEC Commission’s Guidance Regarding Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Under Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The guidance sets forth an approach by which management can conduct a top-down, risk-based evaluation of internal control over financial reporting. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of risks to reliable financial reporting, whether controls exist to address those risks and evaluated evidence about the operation of the controls included in the evaluation based on its assessment of risk.

Based on our assessment, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of the end of the fiscal year to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. We reviewed the results of management’s assessment with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control 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.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2010, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the objectives of a control system are met. Further, any control system reflects limitations on resources, and the benefits of a control system must be considered relative to its costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Littlefield Corporation have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of a control. A design of a control system is also based upon certain assumptions about potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

of Littlefield Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Littlefield Corporation and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit 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 audit 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 Littlefield Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTE 1 – BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Littlefield Corporation actively participates in the U.S. charitable bingo market. The Company’s corporate headquarters is located in Austin, Texas, and the Company operates primarily through wholly owned subsidiaries in Texas, South Carolina, Alabama and Florida. The Company generates its revenues from bingo centers in all four states.

Principles of Consolidation:

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Littlefield Corporation and its subsidiaries (herein collectively referred to as the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

Reclassifications:

Certain amounts in the prior periods presented have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported net income (loss).

Management 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, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition or which are readily convertible to cash without penalty.

Accounts Receivable:

Accounts receivable consist of amounts due from charitable organizations that conduct bingo events at the Company’s various bingo centers, and are generally payable within one month of the event. Receivables also include rent due from operators of concessions located within bingo centers. Accounts receivable are not secured. Management provides an allowance for doubtful accounts, which reflects its estimate of the uncollectible receivables. In the event of non-performance, the maximum exposure to the Company is the recorded amount of receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, at the balance sheet date.

Littlefield Corporation

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2010

Property and Equipment:

The cost of equipment, furniture and fixtures is depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from two to seven years, using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the term of the lease or the estimated useful lives. Buildings are amortized over forty years, which approximates their estimated useful lives. Building improvements are amortized over their estimated useful lives ranging from seven to forty years. Upon sale, retirement or abandonment of assets, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and gains or losses are reflected in income. Repairs and maintenance expenses, which do not extend asset lives, are expensed as incurred.

Advertising:

Advertising costs are expensed when incurred or the first time the advertising takes place. During 2010, the Company had advertising expenses of approximately $47,000 compared to approximately $43,000 in 2009.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets, which primarily consist of goodwill, bingo licenses and non-compete covenants resulting from the acquisition of bingo entities are periodically reviewed by management to evaluate the future economic benefits or potential impairments, which may affect their recorded values. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of assets acquired over the fair market value of those tangible assets on the date of their acquisition. Under FASB ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (FASB ASC 350), goodwill acquired in a business combination for which the acquisition date is after June 30, 2001, shall not be amortized, but shall be reviewed for impairment in value.

Since 2002, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized. These indefinite-lived assets only pertain to halls in the State of Texas. The Company has one class of asset that is classified as indefinite and not subject to periodic amortization. This class of asset is known as a “Grandfathered” license”. In discussing these Grandfathered licenses, a distinction should be made as to the types of bingo licenses the Company owns. There are two classes of commercial lessor licenses in Texas: Grandfathered and Tier. The Grandfathered license refers to any license that was in existence prior to 1989 in which a non-renewal has not occurred.

A Grandfathered license allows the operator to have up to seven (7) charities in a hall and charge up to $600 per session in rent. These licenses are regulated by the Texas Lottery Commission and must be renewed each year. There is an annual fee associated with the renewal of these licenses, which is expensed throughout the year. There is a limited number of these licenses available and they are traded between individuals and organizations. They are a traded commodity, in that they have a cash value which is determined by the market place. These licenses can only be revoked or canceled by failing to renew them by the renewal date or for illegal activity.

F-10

Littlefield Corporation

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2010

A Tier license is deemed by the Company to have no value as an asset and is not recorded as an asset. A Tier commercial lessor license is any license issued after 1989 or any license issued prior to 1989 in which a non-renewal occurred. A Tier license allows the operator to have one (1) charity in a hall and charge up to $600 per session in rent. These licenses are issued, renewed, and applied for through the Texas Lottery Commission. The only cost associated with obtaining and keeping this type of license is an annual renewal fee, which is expensed throughout the year. These licenses are not sold on a negotiated basis, at this time.

In South Carolina there are promoter and solicitor licenses with set fees that are renewed each year and expensed during the year. In Alabama there is a business license which is based upon the gross amount of rents, these too are renewed annually and expensed during the year. These licenses are not recorded as assets and therefore have no related amortization.

Non-compete covenants are amortized over the periods of the stated benefits, ranging from one to five years, and are monitored for contractual compliance. If the projected undiscounted future cash flows related to the intangible assets are less than the recorded value, the intangible asset is written down to fair value.

Revenue Recognition:

The Company generates revenues from the following sources and recognizes revenue when earned and collectability is probable:

(i)

Bingo:

Bingo rents, paper sales and head tax payments are received from charitable organizations through various sub-lease agreements of the Company's bingo centers. Revenues are determined by customer attendance, spending and prize payouts, profit splits, as well as state regulations, which may dictate the number of bingo sessions a charity can conduct and rent limits that can be paid to a commercial lessor, such as the Company. Revenues are accrued and accounted for in the month that they are due when realizable. Revenues that are generated by amounts, such as customer attendance, are recognized in the month they are earned and collectability is probable.

(ii)

Other:

Other revenues are earned concessions, vending machines, bingo supplies, and other sources. Other revenues are recognized in the month they are earned when collectability is probable.

Income Taxes:

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax basis and financial reporting carrying amounts of assets and liabilities. The Company periodically evaluates its deferred tax assets and adjusts any related valuation allowance based on the estimate of the amount of such deferred tax assets which the Company does not believe will meet the “more-likely-than-not” recognition criteria.

Per Share Data:

Basic earnings (loss) per share of common stock is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common share holders by the weighted average number of common shares actually outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share of common stock is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the fully diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period, which includes dilutive stock options and convertible shares.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:

In April 2009, the FASB updated FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (FASB ASC 820) providing additional guidance for estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. This update also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. We adopted the update on April 1, 2009 as required and concluded it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In September 2009, the FASB updated FASB ASC 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (FASB ASC 105). The update establishes the FASB Standards Accounting Codification (“Codification”) as the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied to nongovernmental entities and rules and interpretive releases of the SEC as authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The Codification supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. This update is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. We adopted the update on July 1, 2009, as required and concluded it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In January 2010, the FASB updated FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (FASB ASC 820) that requires additional disclosures and clarifies existing disclosures regarding fair value measurements. The additional disclosures include 1) transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 and 2) activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. The update provides amendments that clarify existing disclosures on 1) level of disaggregation and 2) disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques. This update is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. These disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted the update on January 1, 2010, as required and concluded it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In February 2010, the FASB updated FASB ASC 855, Subsequent Events (FASB ASC 855) that requires an entity that is an SEC filer to evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued. For an SEC filer, this guidance also eliminates the required disclosure of the date through which subsequent events are evaluated. This update is effective upon issuance. We adopted the update on January 1, 2010, as required and concluded it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 2 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS.

This report presents the results of operations of the Company’s Hospitality segment for the twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, as discontinued operations in this report. On April 1, 2009, the Company completed the sale of its event rental business unit reflecting the Company’s focus on its charitable bingo business in Texas, South Carolina, Alabama and Florida. The event rental business unit was sold for $900,000 consisting of $300,000 cash consideration and a seven year note for $600,000 at six percent interest. The asset sale resulted in a gain on sale of $403,556 resulting from a $900,000 sales price less $406,444 of disposed assets, at net book value and a fifteen percent valuation allowance on the seven year note.

The amounts of the discontinued Hospitality segment’s sales, gross profit, gain on sale, income from discontinued operations and income (loss) per basic share included in the fourth quarter and twelve months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were as follows:

NOTE 3 – MATERIAL ACQUISITIONS AND REORGANIZATIONS

Generally speaking, the Securities and Exchange Commission sets forth guidelines which require a company to report as material certain acquisitions. The acquisitions discussed below do not necessarily meet this threshold, however are included in the interest of disclosure. The acquisitions were accounted for as a purchase. Unless otherwise noted, we funded the purchase price from existing cash balances. Our consolidated financial statements include the operating results from the date of acquisition. Unless otherwise noted, pro-forma results of operations have not been presented because the effects of those operations were not material. In accordance with FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations (FASB ASC 805), the total purchase consideration has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including identifiable assets, based on their respective estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.

NOTE 4 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

FASB ASC 825, Financial Instruments (FASB ASC 825), requires disclosure about the fair value of all financial assets and liabilities for which it is practical to estimate. Cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, notes and legal settlements payable and other liabilities are carried at amounts that reasonably approximate their fair values.

NOTE 5 – WRITE-OFFS AND CHARGES

In accordance with FASB ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (FASB ASC 350), the Company recognizes impairment losses when facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In such cases, an impairment loss is recognized and measured as the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company evaluated the carrying value of goodwill for each reporting unit of the Company and determined that no impairment of goodwill was necessary.

During 2008, in accordance with FASB ASC 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations (FASB ASC 420) the Company recorded contract termination costs in the amount of $672,363. The contract termination costs were associated with certain underperforming bingo hall closures in Texas.

The components of deferred tax assets at December 31, 2010 and 2009, are as follows:

Deferred tax asset	2010			2009

Other		108,372			88,041
Net deferred tax asset	$	5,940,960		$	5,935,511

The non-current deferred tax asset results from differences in depreciation of fixed assets and legal reserves for financial and federal income tax reporting purposes and the deferred tax benefit of net operating losses. Due to continuing operating losses for tax purposes, the deferred tax asset has been allowed for as it does not meet the “more likely than not” recognition criteria.

NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES (continued)

The Company recorded approximately $75,000 and $106,000 of state income tax expense, respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. The Company does not expect to incur material federal income tax charges until the depletion of its accumulated federal income tax loss carry-forwards. At December 31, 2010, the Company has net operating loss carry forwards for federal income tax purposes of approximately $13.2 million that begin expiring in the year 2016.

FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes (FASB ASC 740) addresses the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. If a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination, then an enterprise would be required to recognize in its financial statements the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. As of December 31, 2010, the Company did not recognize a liability for uncertain tax positions. We do not expect our unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly over the next twelve months. The tax years 2007 through 2010 remain open to examination by the taxing jurisdictions in which we file income tax returns.

NOTE 12 - ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company applies FASB ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (FASB ASC 718) and FASB ASC 505, Equity (FASB ASC 505), using the modified prospective method of implementation, whereby the prospective method records the compensation expense from the implementation date forward, however leaves prior periods unchanged in accounting for its stock options. At December 31, 2010, the Company has implemented five shareholder approved stock option plans. These plans are intended to comply with Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The plans collectively provide for the total issuance of 3,600,000 common shares over ten years from the date of each plan’s approval. In addition, the plans allow for additional increases of 15% of the then outstanding shares.

The Company recorded approximately $103,000 and $203,000 in compensation expense in the periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, related to options issued or stock grants under its stock-based incentive compensation plans. This includes expense related to both options issued in the current year and options issued in prior years for which the requisite service period for those options includes the current year. The fair value of these options was calculated using the Black-Scholes options pricing model. Information related to the assumptions used in this model is set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006. For options issued in 2010, the following assumptions were used: dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 78%, risk free interest rates of 3.5% and an expected life of 10 years. Treasury stock generally is issued upon stock option exercises.

Transactions under the stock option plans are summarized below. At December 31, 2010, a total of 1,572,410 options were outstanding under these plans.

	Employee Stock Plans
	Options			Weighted Average Exercise Price
Outstanding at 12/31/08		445,410		$	0.53
Granted		1,095,000			0.38

Exercised		---			---
Forfeited		---			---
Outstanding at 12/31/10		1,572,410		$	0.43

The fair value of options granted during the twelve month period ended December 31, 2010, was approximately $30,000 for 50,000 options which vested upon grant.

The fair value of options granted during the twelve month period ended December 31, 2009, was approximately $311,000; 900,000 of the granted options vest over a three-year period with an exercise price of a ten percent premium over the stock price on the date of grant, 145,000 options vested upon grant and 50,000 options vest in four years.

For 2010, the aggregate intrinsic value represents the value of the Company’s closing stock price of $0.55 on the last trading day of the period in excess of the exercise price multiplied by the number of options outstanding or exercisable. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during 2010 was $0, as no options were exercised. Total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to non-vested stock options was approximately $85,000 as of December 31, 2010, related to approximately 334,000 shares with a per share weighted average fair value of $0.26. We anticipate this expense to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.2 years.

For 2009, the total intrinsic value of options exercised was $0, as no options were exercised. Total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to non-vested stock options was approximately $159,000 as of December 31, 2009, related to approximately 647,000 shares with a per share weighted average fair value of $0.25.

(b) Legal:

Generally speaking, the Securities and Exchange Commission guidelines require a company to report any pending legal and/or regulatory proceedings that involve a claim for damages in excess of ten percent (10%) of its current assets. The litigation and proceedings discussed below do not necessarily meet this threshold, but are included in the interest of disclosure. The Company is also sometimes engaged in routine litigation incidental to its business. In general, the Company will vigorously defend itself against all claims to the fullest extent possible. The legal proceedings exclude certain insurance claims for which the Company believes are covered and defended by existing insurance policies and ordinary and incidental matters.

Littlefield Corporation f/k/a/ American Bingo and Gaming v. Philip Furtney, Case No.: 2001 CA 4000, Circuit Court of the Twelfth Judicial Circuit in and for Manatee County, Florida.

In this case, Littlefield is Plaintiff and seeks recovery from the estate of Philip Furtney [“Furtney”] for fraud and negligent misrepresentations. This litigation arises from the 1995 acquisition of three Florida bingo centers by a predecessor, American Bingo & Gaming Corporation, from two corporations controlled by Furtney – Pondella Hall for Hire, Inc., [“Pondella”] and 800438 Ontario.

Several months after the acquisition of the three centers, the Florida Office of Statewide Prosecution obtained an indictment for alleged racketeering against two American Bingo subsidiaries that operated two of the centers and the Florida Attorney General brought a civil proceeding for racketeering against the same two subsidiaries and American Bingo based upon the same allegations. The indictment and civil litigation were the result of an investigation that had been ongoing for over one year prior to the acquisition of the centers. Furtney was aware of the investigation and its serious nature, but did not disclose the investigation to American Bingo. In fact, even though Furtney was aware of the investigation, the acquisition agreements related to the sales specifically and falsely stated that there were not any ongoing governmental investigations. Furtney was admittedly divesting himself of his interests in these and other bingo operations because of the investigation.

American Bingo won the dismissal of the civil action, settled the criminal case and sold its Florida centers as a condition of the settlement. Nonetheless, American Bingo suffered significant damages as a result of Furtney’s conduct.

The resolution of this long pending matter was substantially delayed when Furtney, a citizen of Canada and part time resident of Mexico, avoided service of the Complaint. Littlefield was finally successful in serving Furtney when he was in the United States in 2005, to attend related litigation. However, Furtney passed away in September 2007, several months before the scheduled trial date. In the event a defendant dies following the commencement of litigation, the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure provides that a plaintiff may substitute the “proper parties” as the defendant and continue to pursue the claim to judgment. Furtney’s Estate Trustee, Bruce Furtney, was substituted as the defendant and Littlefield has continued to pursue its claims for damages from Furtney’s Estate, including all sums paid in the acquisition of the three centers, all costs incurred by American Bingo in the litigation with the state of Florida, and the amount of judgments Littlefield was required to pay to Pondella and 800438 Ontario as a result of related litigation.

After the substitution of Estate Trustee Bruce Furtney as the defendant, he discharged Furtney’s previous counsel and retained his own counsel which resulted in additional delay. Prior to his dismissal, Furtney’s counsel filed a motion for summary judgment seeking the dismissal of the claims, arguing that the claims were barred by the previous judgments in the related litigation with Pondella and Ontario; he also argued that the claims against Furtney were time-barred by the statute of limitations. The attorney retained by Bruce Furtney continued in raising these arguments and a hearing on the motion was conducted in July 2009. The Court entered an order in March 2010,

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2010

NOTE 14 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (continued)

denying the motion for summary judgment and rejecting the arguments in their entirety; the case was then scheduled for trial.

The case is now set for trial on a three week trial calendar beginning March 14, 2011. However, according to recent court filings by the attorney for Bruce Furtney, disagreements regarding the handling the Estate generally and this litigation in particular have arisen between Furtney and the two beneficiaries of the Estate, Furtney’s sons. As a result of these disagreements, Bruce Furtney is resigning as Trustee and Furtney’s two sons are being appointed as successor Trustees, which means they must be substituted as parties in the case once they are officially appointed as Estate Trustees. Furtney’s sons have threatened to sue Bruce Furtney and they want a different counsel to represent them in this case. Bruce Furtney’s counsel was permitted to withdraw due to a conflict of interest and the Court has given Furtney’s sons until March 11, 2011, to obtain counsel to represent them. This substitution of the new Trustees may result in a delay of the March trail date.

Cause No.24, 182-B; West Texas Bingo, Inc. v. Janie Wall, in the 104th Judicial District Court of Taylor County, Texas.

In this case, Plaintiff was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Plaintiff filed suit against the Defendants alleging the Defendants interfered with the Plaintiff's bingo operations and/or business operations located in Abilene, Texas. The Defendants asserted counterclaims against the Plaintiff alleging that the Plaintiff's claims were harassing and constituted intentional infliction of emotional distress. Defendant's claims were dismissed by the Court via summary judgment in June 2008.

Defendants subsequently alleged that the Company and its CEO were the alter-ego of the Plaintiff and asserted third-party claims against them. These claims were dismissed by the Court via summary judgment in July 2010.

A mediation was conducted in January 2010 and in April 2010, but the case did not settle. In January 2011, this matter was resolved pursuant to the terms and conditions of a confidential settlement agreement entered into by the parties within which for consideration the Defendants surrendered their licenses to play bingo for a specified period of time.

Cause No. 2009-CI-14245, B-Y Mission Plaza CC, Ltd. v. Coastal Bend Bingo, Inc. and Littlefield Corporation, in the 285th District Court of Bexar County, Texas.

B-Y Mission, Plaintiff, filed suit against the Company and one of its affiliates, alleging breach of a lease agreement between B-Y Mission, Landlord, and Coastal Bend, Lessee, and seeking to compel arbitration of the dispute. The Company is the Guarantor of the lease entered into by one of its affiliates, Coastal Bend. Coastal Bend attempted to terminate the lease under a clause of the lease that the Company believes permits termination of the lease under the circumstances and tendered the appropriate termination amount. The Company also asserted that B-Y Mission engaged in fraud by, among other things, making material misrepresentations in connection with the lease. The Landlord contended the termination was wrongful and seeks recovery of all remaining rental payments.

As of April 30, 2010, the suit is no longer pending. As a result of an arbitration conducted on March 31 and April 1, 2010, the arbitrator determined that the Company’s affiliate did not have grounds to terminate the lease as alleged. However, the arbitrator also determined that Company’s affiliate was entitled to a reduction of the amount of common area maintenance, insurance and taxes charged by the Landlord for the remainder of the lease. The arbitrator awarded the Landlord an amount for past rent and for attorney fees, which has been fully paid by the Company. The Company recorded a $122,449 charge in its first quarter 2010 results to reflect this judgment. On April 29, 2010, the Court entered its final judgment adopting the decision and award of the arbitrator. The judgment expressly recites that all monetary awards therein have been fully satisfied by the Company and its

During the second quarter of 1998, the Company authorized a stock repurchase program to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of its common stock. On February 8, 2000, the Company amended the stock repurchase program to permit purchase of up to 2,000,000 shares of its common stock at such time and prices the Company deems advantageous. The amount was subsequently increased to 3,000,000 shares. During 2009, the Company reinstated its share repurchase program and authorized the purchase of up to an additional $500,000 of its common shares. During 2009, 159,385 shares of its common shares were repurchased for $114,906. During 2010, 694,008 shares of its common shares were repurchased for $482,752. There is no commitment or obligation on the part of the Company to purchase any particular number of shares, and the program may be suspended at any time at the Company’s discretion. Any shares so repurchased will be held as treasury shares and be available for general corporate purposes.

(d) Concentration of Credit Risk:

The Company maintains its cash and certificates of deposit in banks which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000. At December 31, 2010, cash in banks did not exceed FDIC coverage limits.

The Company has no obligation to match any of the employee deferrals and contributions to the plan are at the discretion of management. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2008, the Company contributed $0 and $0 respectively, into the Plan.
