Bridge Resources Corp. (TSX VENTURE: BUK) ("Bridge") has filed its financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2011 together with its related Management's Discussion and Analysis on SEDAR. These statements reference the financial requirements for Bridge to achieve first production in Idaho, targeted for later this year. Bridge encourages readers to review such statements and related Management's Discussion and Analysis for complete details on Bridge's financial position.

Bridge is forecasting a remaining $5,500,000 gross capital expenditure cost (50% of which is net to Bridge) to complete the necessary infrastructure to achieve first production and initial cash flow with respect to its Idaho assets.

Bridge is fully current with interest payments on its senior facility but is not in compliance with the associated debt repayment schedule covenant. A restructuring of current debt arrangements or additional debt and/or equity financing is essential if Bridge is to meet current and future operating requirements. Bridge does not currently possess the financial resources to satisfy principal and interest payments due on its existing debt facilities in 2011. The Company expects any restructuring options will be subject to review of the submitted Bridge Field Development Plan to produce the Idaho reserves, joint venture participation, as well as other considerations. Bridge anticipates furthering negotiations with the Senior Lending Syndicate during this calendar quarter, however there can be no assurances of continued financial support from the Senior Lending Syndicate.

Management of Bridge believes the Idaho assets have significant potential based on the independent reserves and resources valuation by AJM Deloitte (formerly AJM Petroleum Consultants) effective December 31, 2010. Bridge has also engaged Cappello Capital Corp. of Santa Monica, California to assist the Company with raising capital for several potential initiatives. The initiatives may include development financing of the Willow and Hamilton fields and restructuring of notes and debt.

Bridge, on behalf of its joint venture with its partner, has acquired the majority of the permits and agreements for laying the pipeline to Willow Field. The line pipe itself has been purchased together with an option to acquire 13 acres of land for location of a gas processing plant on the Northwest Pipeline. A Conditional Use Permit request has been submitted to the Payette County Commissioners and will be reviewed for approval in the next meeting scheduled for August 18, 2011.

The Willow and Hamilton Fields, Idaho are the primary assets of Bridge. Bridge confirms its commitment to make its best efforts to achieve first production as efficiently as possible.
