PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Back to Table of Contents
The Company, f/k/a HIPSO Multimedia, Inc., a Florida corporation, was incorporated in April 2005. The Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement on November 30, 2011, providing for the acquisition of intellectual property rights comprised of an Internet and mobile service platform whose purpose is to empower or capitalize on the growth of the neighborhood, local economy (the “Buildablock Assets”).
Effective March 7, 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of the Buildablock Assets. In connection with the completion of the acquisition, the Company effected a reverse st ck split oft e Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.00001, on a one-for-eight (1:8) basis (which occurred on March 7, 2012) and issued an aggregate of 8,755,484 shares of common s to ck effective March 7, 2012, representing 50% of the Company’s then-outstandmg shares, after givmg effect to the one-for-eight reverse stock split and issuance of the shares.
Upon the closing of the transaction, Gary Oberman and Bartek Bulzak were elected to the Company’s Board of Directors, Mr. Oberman was appointed President and Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Bulzak was appointed Chief Technology Officer.
Effective February 24, 2012, the name of the Company was changed to Buildablock Corp.
Business
Summary. Buildablock.com is an Internet service platform whose mission is to act as a transactional catalyst between buyers and sellers while leveraging a growing collection of patented, sophisticated user friendly tools. Growing beyond the scope of aggregation sites or group buying catalogs, Buildablock.com offers consumers maximum value for their purchasing dollar by combining group buying leverage, social media interactivity and automated negotiating tools. Buildablock.com’s dashboard of buying tools and follow-on services represent a new paradigm in supply chain interaction for both retailers and consumers alike. The Company expects that ease of customer acquisition and diverse, recurring revenue streams will combine to return exceptional value to the Company’s shareholders.
Recent Activities. In January 2013, the Company launched its e-commerce website, Buildablock.com and the site is now live and fully integrated.
In the Company’s press release announcing the launch, the Company’s CEO, Gary Oberman, stated, “we are excited by the live launch of our e-commerce website. We believe that group buying using the Buildablock platform is the wave of the future since it provides for negotiated discounting and user empowerment since it is the customer that chooses products for discounting by just uploading them onto our site. As just one example of how our economies of scale work, by consolidating large blocks of fuel buyers that number in the thousands, the Buildablock platform can approach large fuel providers to negotiate fleet pricing for its members. This is a very compelling application of our business model that can provide the opportunity for Buildablock users to save money on gas.”
This press release further stated that the Company had progressed into the marketing phase where initiatives will include merchant awareness programs and buyer incentive campaigns. One such program is its joint venture relationship with Linen Chest, Canada’s leading retailer in home fashion, with over 28 stores. Linen Chest is a very strong Canadian brand with an emerging digital presence that had been looking for an online solution to help drive traffic to its physical stores and increase online sales without the need for deep discounting.
Sheldon Liebner, President of the Linen Chest, was quoted in the Company’s press release, stating, “Buildablock’s unique group bidding methodology ensures maximum traffic through negotiated price management. We had entertained doing business with fixed discounters like Groupon, but found very little user engagement during the sales process, which limits customer loyalty. With Buildablock, our view is that the user experience will be very engaging, which will maintain maximum value to both the buyer and the seller alike. Buildablock users completed several transactions with Linen Chest in the early phase of its live launch, which was easily facilitated and which Linen Chest reports drove new traffic to both its website and physical stores. Buildablock is the only platform we found that delivers high quality, free advertising without degrading our brand. This is very encouraging news for our firm as we transition our way across the digital landscape”.

From this alliance with Linen Chest, the Company was able to obtain essential user feedback through its soft launch in order to finalize systems and procedures and prepare for its live launch. Buildablock is now focused upon increasing its shopper population through various programs and initiatives. Since Buildablock’s social login requirement is similar to that of other leading social networking sites, the Company expects to gain exposure to the friends networks of new subscribers it gained via marketing efforts already undertaken, which could lead to over 400,000 potential new subscribers by way of referral.
The Company views the social networking element as a key to enhancing the shopper experience and expects to go live with its mobile application in the near future. The Company is intent on increasing the consumer and merchant adoption of the Buildablock platform and remains confident in its ultimate success of its vibrant and exciting e-commerce platform.
A Unique Shopping Platform. Buildablock.com is an online shopping platform that revolutionizes conventional online shopping. The site brings together great ideas, such as group discounts, wish lists, online negotiations, and more, into a unique venue that empowers consumers to save on the items they want from the merchants they choose.
When a Buildablock.com user finds an item he or she likes, whether online or in a retail store, the Buildablock.com user simply posts basic details about it on Buildablock.com and shares the information on social media. The Company calls that action a “Wink”. Then, others with the same interest can join the Wink to form a buyer group. Once a certain number of buyers have joined the Wink, Buildablock.com automatically opens a negotiation with the merchant to win a substantial discount for everyone in the buyer group.
The Buildablock Advantage. Buildablock.com is capable of saving users money when it comes to buying the things users really want to purchase. While arranging terrific deals for users will always be Buildablock.com’s primary objective, Buildablock.com is not one-dimensional. Rather, Buildablock.com empowers both shoppers and merchants, by acting as a mediator between shoppers and merchants.

We currently have approximately 4 full employees, including our president, and two part-time per diem installers for our Telecommunication Services and equipment.

Gary Oberman and Bartek Bulzak were elected to the Company’s Board of Directors, Mr. Oberman was appointed President and Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Bulzak was appointed Chief Technology Officer.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS Back to Table of Contents
Investing in our common stock will provide an investor with an equity ownership interest. Shareholders will be subject to risks inherent in our business. The performance of our shares will reflect the performance of our business relative to, among other things, general economic and industry conditions, market conditions and competition. The value of the investment may increase or decrease and could result in a loss. An investor should carefully consider the following factors as well as other information contained in this annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2012.
This annual report on Form 10-K also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including the risk factors described below and the other factors described elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
Risk factors related to our business
With the disposition of Valtech, the Company commenced operating in the development stage as it develops its purchased intellectual property. The Company has no revenues and nominal assets other than cash which was raised during May 2012 as part of a private placement. New management has had some preliminary discussions regarding further capitalization of the Company. These plans include the raising of capital through the equity markets to fund future operations and generating adequate revenues for the new business of the Company. Even if the Company raises sufficient capital to support its operating expenses and generates revenues, there can be no assurance that the revenues will be sufficient to enable it to develop business to a level where it will generate profits and cash flows from operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. However, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. new and retain existing customers, generate and sustain a revenue base sufficient to meet operating expenses, and achieve profitability, if ever.
Our auditor has raised doubts about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company has lost money in every quarter since the inception of its business. As of November 30, 2012, our accumulated loss was $1,884,979. In April 2012, the related party loans with the four principal shareholders of the Company were assumed by Valtech, upon the sale back to Valtech along with the accrued interest on those loans. Currently there is a $0 balance due those shareholders. The amount outstanding prior to the sale was $1,928,319. The loans did bear interest at an annual rate of 10% for individual amounts exceeding $150,000 (CDN$). Interest expense for the years ended November 30, 2012 and 2011 were $35,361 and $97,401, respectively, and are reflected in operations from discontinued operations. Accrued interest on these loans prior to the sale was $329,395. The accrued interest along with the notes were sold in April 2012, and the balance is $0 as of November 30, 2012.
The Company may not be successful in implementing its business plan.
While the Company’s business model and strategy of offering “triple play” Telecommunications Services is similar to those being utilized by many existing providers of telecommunication services, the Company may not be successful, for many reasons, including but not limited to insufficient resources to compete in its present market or in expanded markets in Canada or elsewhere. If the assumptions underlying the business model are not valid or if the Company is unable to implement the business plan, achieve predicted levels of market penetration or obtain the desired level of pricing of services for sustained periods, the Company may not be successful. The Company focuses on selling directly to consumers and through hotels and apartment buildings. It may never be able to achieve significant market acceptance, favorable operating results or profitability.
The Company has a concentration of credit risk.
On August 31, 2011, $6,372, or 76% of the Company’s accounts receivable was with three customers. In addition, there was one customer who represented approximately 66% of the revenue for the nine months ended August 31, 2011. This customer is considered a major customer of the Company.
The Company expects that its losses will continue for the foreseeable future.
The Company has incurred losses and experienced negative cash flow from operations since it commenced its Telecommunications Services business. It expects to continue to incur significant losses and negative cash flow from operations for the foreseeable future. If revenue does not grow as it expects or if its ability to raise capital is insufficient or operating expenditures exceed its expectations, then the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations will face materially adverse effects.
5 |
Competitive forces may result in the decrease of the price for the Company’s Telecommunication Services.
Prices for communications services have historically decreased over time. The Company expects that prices for its Telecommunications Services may decrease after the market for such services becomes saturated. While the Company believes that the market for Telecommunication Services shall continue to grow, the Company cannot predict with any certainty the number of years before which saturation occurs. At such time that market saturation occurs, the Company may have to reduce prices in order to remain competitive. The inability to sell its Telecommunication Services at desired pricing levels would significantly impair its ability to achieve profitability.
The actual amount and timing of future capital requirements will depend upon a number of factors, including, but not limited to:
- | the number of new markets it enters and the timing of entry; |
- | the rate and price at which customers purchase services; |
- | the level of marketing required to attract and retain customers; and |
- | opportunities to invest in or acquire complementary businesses. |
Failure to manage growth could have a detrimental effect on the Company’s business.
The Company anticipates that the number and rate of installations for new customers will continue to increase provided that the Company is able to raise sufficient capital. However, rapid growth would place a significant strain on the Company’s management, financial controls, operations, personnel and other resources. If the Company fails to manage its anticipated rapid growth, its business could be materially adversely affected. If the Company is unable to provide its existing customers with adequate service and if it does not institute adequate financial and reporting systems, managerial controls and procedures, its financial condition will be adversely affected. It is currently implementing operational support systems to bill customers, process customer orders and coordinate with vendors and contractors. To manage growth effectively, it must successfully implement these systems on a timely basis and continually expand and upgrade these systems as our operations expand.
The Company’s success depends in large part on its retention of executive officers.
The Company is managed by a small number of executive officers. Competition for qualified executives in the telecommunications industry is intense, and there are a limited number of persons with comparable experience. The Company depends upon its executive officers, and, in particular, Rene Arbic, President and Chief Executive Officer, to execute its business strategy and manage employees. While Company does not have employment agreements with nor does it have “key person” life insurance policies on any of its executive officers, Rene Arbic has an employment agreement with Valtech, the Company’s operating subsidiary. The loss of these key individuals would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.
If the Company fails to recruit and hire qualified personnel in a timely manner or to retain its employees, it will not be able to execute its business strategy.
The Company’s strategy is to continue expanding its presence in Montreal and in Quebec Province. It also plans to expand its service areas to other provinces in Canada. In order to execute this strategy, it must identify, hire, train and retain highly qualified technical, sales, marketing and customer service personnel. If it cannot hire and retain a sufficient number of qualified employees, it will not be able to expand as planned. The Company may be unable to identify, hire or retain employees with experience in the telecommunications industry. Any failure to attract suitable employees would adversely affect its business.
The Company may make acquisitions of complementary businesses in the future which may disrupt its business and be dilutive to existing shareholders.
The Company intends to consider acquisitions of businesses in the future. Acquisitions of businesses and technologies involve numerous risks, including the diversion of the attention of management, difficulties in assimilating the acquired operations, loss of key employees from the acquired company and difficulties in transitioning key customer relationships. In addition, acquisitions may result in dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of additional debt, large one-time expenses and the creation of goodwill or other intangible assets that result in significant amortization expense. Any of these factors could materially harm the Company’s business or operating results.
The Company’s quarterly operating results are likely to fluctuate significantly, causing its stock price to be volatile.
The Company cannot accurately forecast quarterly revenue and operating results, which may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter. If quarterly revenue or operating results fall below the expectations of investors or securities analysts, the price of its common stock could fall substantially. Its quarterly revenue and operating results may fluctuate as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are outside our control, including:
- | the amount and timing of expenditures relating to the rollout of services; |
- | the rate at which it is able to attract and retain customers; |
- | the availability of future financing to continue expansion; |
- | technical difficulties; |
- | the introduction of new services or technologies by our competitors and |
- | pressures on the pricing of services. |
6 |
The Company’s principal shareholders and management own a significant percentage of its capital stock and are able to exercise significant influence over the Company.
The Company’s executive officers and directors and principal shareholders together beneficially own a majority of the total common stock of the Company. Accordingly, these stockholders, as a group, will be able to determine the composition of the board of directors and will retain the power to approve all matters requiring shareholder approval and will continue to have significant influence over the Company’s affairs. This concentration of ownership could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company or otherwise discouraging a potential acquirer from attempting to obtain control of our company, which in turn could have a material and adverse effect on the market price of our common stock or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over the market prices for their shares of common stock.
Risk factors related to the market for our common stock
There is no assurance that an active trading market will be sustained for our common stock.
Our common stock became eligible for quotation on the FINRA OTCBB under the symbol “HPSO” on August 8, 2008. Further, there can be no assurance regarding the market price of our shares. In addition, the liquidity of any trading market in our common stock, and the market price quoted for the shares of common stock, may be adversely affected by changes in the overall market for securities generally and by changes in our financial performance or prospects for companies in our industry generally. As a result, you cannot be sure that an active trading market will develop or be sustained for our shares.
State blue sky registration; potential limitations on resale of our securities.
It is the intention of the management to seek coverage and publication of information regarding the Company in an accepted publication which permits a manual exemption. This manual exemption permits a security to be distributed in a particular state without being registered if the Company issuing the security has a listing for that security in a securities manual recognized by the state. However, it is not enough for the security to be listed in a recognized manual. The listing entry must contain (1) the names of issuers, officers, and directors, (2) an issuer’s balance sheet, and (3) a profit and loss statement for either the fiscal year preceding the balance sheet or for the most recent fiscal year of operations. Furthermore, the manual exemption is a nonissuer exemption restricted to secondary trading transactions, making it unavailable for issuers selling newly issued securities.
Most of the accepted manuals are those published in Standard and Poor’s, Moody’s Investor Service, Fitch’s Investment Service, and Best’s Insurance Reports, and many states expressly recognize these manuals. A smaller number of states declare that they “recognize securities manuals” but do not specify the recognized manuals. The following states do not have any provisions and therefore do not expressly recognize the manual exemption: Alabama, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Montana, South Dakota, Tennessee, Vermont and Wisconsin.
Dividends unlikely.
We do not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends, if any, will be contingent upon our future revenues and earnings, capital requirements and general financial condition. The payment of any dividends will be within the discretion of our board of directors. It is our intention to retain all earnings for use in the business operations and accordingly, we do not anticipate that the Company will declare any dividends in the foreseeable future.
Possible Issuance of Additional Securities.
Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.00001. As of November 30, 2012, we had 23,937,979 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. We may issue additional shares of common stock in connection with any financing activities, as compensation for services or in connection with any future acquisitions. To the extent that additional shares of common stock are issued, our shareholders would experience dilution of their respective ownership interests in the Company. The issuance of additional shares of common stock may adversely affect the market price of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of our equity securities.
Compliance with Penny Stock Rules.
Our securities are considered a “penny stock” as defined in the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder, since the price of our shares of common stock is less than $5. Unless our common stock will otherwise be excluded from the definition of “penny stock,” the penny stock rules apply with respect to our common stock. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer prior to a transaction in penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its sales person in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that the broker-dealer, not otherwise exempt from such rules, must make a special written determination that the penny stock is suitable for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure rules have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. So long as the common stock is subject to the penny stock rules, it may become more difficult to sell such securities. Such requirements, if applicable, could additionally limit the level of trading activity for our common stock and could make it more difficult for investors to sell our common stock.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDING Back to Table of Contents
On April 7, 2008, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Thomas Klein and Arshad Shaw (the “Consultants”), pursuant to which each Consultant was issued 300,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, granted options to purchase 500,000 shares and options to purchase additional shares during the period commencing May 1, 2008 through October 1, 2008. As a result of the failure of Consultants to provide the services required under the consulting agreement, the Company terminated the consulting agreement on August 28, 2008.
The Company commenced a lawsuit against the Consultants and the former transfer agent for its common stock and filed an amended complaint on February 3, 2009, alleging, among other things, non-performance by the Consultants of their obligations under the consulting agreement and their failure to pay for the initial 500,000 options that each exercised.
On August 30, 2009, the Court entered a default judgment against the defendants which provide for an injunction against the transfer agent ordering it not to lift restrictions on the certificates evidencing the 300,000 restricted shares of common stock issued to and the 500,000 shares underlying the options granted to each Consultant. On January 26, 2011, the successor transfer agent cancelled the restricted shares in the Consultants’ names. On March 1, 2011, attorneys for the Consultants filed a motion seeking legal fess from the Company not to exceed
$1,762.50.
The Company is not a party to any other litigation and does not believe that any litigation is pending or threatened.

From time to time, we also may provide forward-looking statements in other materials we release to the public.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to those discussed below and elsewhere in this report, particularly in the section entitled “Risk Factors”.
To the extent that statements in the report are not strictly historical, including statements as to revenue projections, business strategy, outlook, objectives, future milestones, plans, intentions, goals, future financial conditions, future collaboration agreements, the success of the Company’s development, events conditioned on stockholder or other approval, or otherwise as to future events, such statements are forward-looking. The forward-looking statements contained in this annual report are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the statements made. Other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include the following: business conditions and the amount of growth in the Company’s industry and general economy; competitive factors; ability to attract and retain personnel; the price of the Company’s stock; and the risk factors set forth from time to time in the Company’s SEC reports, including but not limited to its annual report on Form 10-K; its quarterly reports on Forms 10-Q; and any reports on Form 8-K.

Overview
In June 2008, we acquired our wholly-owned subsidiary, Valtech Communications Inc. (“Valtech”) in a reverse merger transaction, issuing 40 million restricted shares to the Valtech shareholders.
Valtech offers low-cost, highly reliable triple-play service of Digital Phone, Digital Voice, High-Speed Internet and Digital TV backed by fast, friendly and live customer service (“Telecommunication Services”). Our present plan is to expand our bundled services by providing an end-to- end IPTV solution consisting of IPTV middleware, video on demand, network based PVR, IPTV head ends, content protection, IPTV infrastructure, system integration and IPTV applications such as games. In order to expand our services to include end-to-end IPTV service, the Company is dependent upon its ability to raise sufficient capital to fund its agreement with Ericsson. To date, the Company has been unable to meet its obligations under the Ericsson agreement and at present no agreement with Ericsson has been negotiated and no negotiations with Ericsson are on-going.
We intend to use our limited resources to market our services to new residential and commercial building complexes and existing hotel chains. Further, we intend to market our bundled Telecommunication Services in industry publications and intend to develop our website and promote its presence in order to increase web traffic and possible sales to new clients (www.valtech.ca).
Our management believes that the trend in our business is toward greater convergence to high speed Internet and high definition television. We believe that our bundled Telecommunication Services are competitive in terms of reliability and pricing as compared to the services offered by incumbent operators. Since we have no patent protection, it is possible that a well-funded company could enter the field and diminish our prospective business growth. We face uncertainties regarding our future growth because we must compete on price and quality of service with traditional communications companies with far longer operating histories, more established customer relationships, greater financial, technical and marketing resources, larger customer bases and greater brand or name recognition. Furthermore, companies that may seek to enter our markets may expose us to severe price competition and future technological developments could make us less competitive.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers all highly liquid fixed income investments with maturities of three months or less, to be cash equivalents. On November 30, 2012, the Company had $362,007 in cash and cash equivalents. At November 30, 2011, the company had $0 in cash.
Accounts Receivable. Management periodically reviews the current status of existing receivables and management’s evaluation of periodic aging of accounts. The Company accounts receivable for the years ended November 30, 2012 and 2011 were $0 and $26,147 an respectively.
Deferred Costs. Deferred costs as of November 30, 2012 and 2011, are reflected in assets held under discontinued operations. There was $0 and $71,100 charged to operations for amortization expense for the year ended November 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, which are reflected in discontinued operations.
Revenue Recognition. Through April 30, 2012, the Company through Valtech received revenue from subscribers to its triple play network in which it provided digital TV, voice over internet protocol (VoIP), and high speed internet access, all via fiber optic cable. The Company billed its subscribers on a monthly basis and recognized the monthly revenue based upon the specific plan selected by the subscriber. The Company additionally provided contracted services to wire commercial buildings with fiber optic cable in order to provide for similar services. Valtech was sold on April 30, 2012. For reporting periods ended after April 30, 2012, revenues for Valtech are reported net of operating expenses as gain or loss from discontinued operations.
Buildablock is a development stage company and has not yet recorded any revenues. Buildablock plans to recognize revenue from sales when the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred; the selling price is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured.
Fixed Assets: Fixed assets as of November 30, 2012 and 2011, are reflected in assets held under discontinued operations. There was $0 and $4,997 charged to operations for depreciation expense for the years ended November 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, which are reflected in discontinued operations.
Results of Operations.
Comparison of the years ended November 30, 2012 and 2011
Revenues: Our revenues for the year ended November 30, 2012 were $0 compared to $134,422for year ended November 30, 2011. The Company’s revenues decreased by $143,422, which represents a 100% decrease from the prior year. The Company’s decrease in revenues is mainly attributable to the sale of Valtech.
Cost of Sales: Cost of Sales for the year ended November 30, 2012 was $0 compared to $301,379 for year ended November 30, 2011. The Company’s cost of sales decrease was $301,379, which represents a 100% decrease from prior year. Thus, the decrease in the cost of sales was directly related to the decrease in wirings and installations as well as equipment.
Depreciation and Amortization: For the year ended November 30, 2012 we recorded $0 in depreciation and amortization expenses compared to $132,490 during the year ended November 30, 2011.
General and Administrative Expenses: General and Administrative Expenses for the year ended November 30, 2012 was $1,121,464 compared to $429,616 for year ended November 30, 2011. The Company’s general and administrative expenses increase was 691,848, which represents a 161% increase from the prior year mainly due to increased non-cash compensation expenses.
11 |
Interest Expense: The Company’s interest expense for the year ended November 30, 2012 was $0 compared to $131,402 for year ended November 30, 2010. The decrease of 131,402 were due to the fact that the related party loans with the four principal shareholders of the Company were assumed by Valtech, upon the sale back to Valtech along with the accrued interest on those loans. Currently there is a $0 balance due those shareholders.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the year ended November 30, 2012, our net cash increased by 362,007. During the year ended November 30, 2012 and 2011, net cash used in operating activities was $1,083,641and $388,545, respectively. This cash was used to fund our operations for the periods, adjusted for non-cash expenses and changes in operating assets and liabilities.
We had no investing activities in the years ended November 30, 2012 and 2011.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $(1,486,449) during the year ended November 30, 2012 compared to $355,851 net cash provided by financing activities during the year ended November 30, 2011. The net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended November 30, 2012 resulted from proceeds of $1,486,730 related to the issuance of stoc. The net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended November 30, 2011 resulted from proceeds of $355,851 related to the issuance of stock.
The Company has only limited capital. Additional financing is necessary for the Company to continue as a going concern.
Our continued operations will depend on whether we are able to raise additional funds through third parties, such as equity and debt financing, as well as additional loans from our affiliated shareholders. However, there can be no assurance that such additional funds will be available on acceptable terms and there can be no assurance that any additional funding that we do obtain will be sufficient to meet our needs in the long term. We will continue to fund operations from cash on hand and through the similar sources of capital previously described. We can give no assurances that any additional capital that we are able to obtain will be sufficient to fully fund our growth plan.
Current and Future Financing Needs
We have incurred an accumulated deficit of $1,884,979 through November 30, 2012. We have incurred negative cash flow from operations since we started our Telecommunication Services business. We may need to obtain additional funds sooner or in greater amounts than we currently anticipate. Potential sources of financing include strategic relationships, public or private sales of our shares or debt and other sources. We may seek to access the public or private equity markets when conditions are favorable due to our long-term capital requirements. We do not have any committed sources of financing at this time, and it is uncertain whether additional funding will be available when we need it on terms that will be acceptable to us, or at all. If we raise funds by selling additional shares of common stock or other securities convertible into common stock, the ownership interest of our existing stockholders will be diluted. If we are not able to obtain financing when needed, we may be unable to carry out our business plan. As a result, we may have to significantly limit our operations and our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially harmed.
Effect of Exchange Rate on Cash.
During 2012, the Company reported a loss of $59 due to changes in the exchange rate compared to a gain of $19,689 in 2011. A loss reflects an increase in the value of the Canadian dollar as compared to the United States dollar.
Cash end of Year. The Company’s cash increased by $362,007 to $362,007 at the end of November 30, 2012 compared to an decrease of $13,005 at the end of November 30, 2011.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of November 30, 2012 we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1934.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
The Company leases its office space from a related party. See also footnote 7 in the consolidated financial statements.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The critical accounting policies that affect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our financial statements are reviewed and any required adjustments are recorded on a monthly basis.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs . FASB ASU 2011-04 amends and clarifies the measurement and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 820 resulting in common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements, clarification of how to apply existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements, and changes to certain principles and requirements for measuring fair value and disclosing information about fair value measurements. The new requirements are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company plans to adopt this amended guidance on October 1, 2012 and at this time does not anticipate that it will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
In June 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income , which amends the disclosure and presentation requirements of Comprehensive Income. Specifically, FASB ASU No. 2011-05 requires that all nonowner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented either in 1) a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or 2) two separate but consecutive statements, in which the first statement presents total net income and its components, and the second statement presents total other comprehensive income and its components. These new presentation requirements, as currently set forth, are effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt this amended guidance on October 1, 2012 and at this time does not anticipate that it will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
In September 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment , which amended goodwill impairment guidance to provide an option for entities to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. After assessing the totality of events and circumstances, if an entity determines that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, performance of the two-step impairment test is no longer required. This guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of this guidance is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
There were other updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(a development stage company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
November 30, 2012 and 2011
(unaudited)
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These consolidated unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the consolidated operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
Buildablock
Corp. (the “Company”) formerly HIPSO Multimedia, Inc., a Florida corporation, was incorporated in April 2005. As described
in Note 7, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement on November 30, 2011 providing for the acquisition of intellectual property
rights comprised of an Internet and mobile service platform whose purpose is to empower or capitalize on the growth of the neighborhood,
local economy (the “Buildablock Assets”). The Buildablock Assets are in the development stage. In addition to Buildablock’s
social networking library, the service is enriched by its new “DealWink” engine, a new e-commerce platform that combines
the power of group buying, couponing, and price aggregation, among other things, to drive both value to its customers and opportunity
to the retailer. Effective March 7, 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of the Buildablock Assets. In connection with the completion
of the acquisition, the Company effected a reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, par value $
On June 5, 2012, the Company formed a Canadian subsidiary, Buildablock Canada Inc. (“Buildablock Canada”). Since inception, Buildablock Canada has had little activity. The Company anticipates that Buildablock Canada will engage in research and development activities.
Effective July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 105-10, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles - Overall (“ASC 105-1 0”). ASC 105-10 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority offederal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification superseded all existing n·on-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification is non-authoritative. The FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Positions or Emerging Issue Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”). The FASB will not consider ASUs as authoritative in their own right. ASUs will serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the bases for conclusions on the change(s) in the Codification. References made to FASB guidance throughout this document have been updated for the Codification.
Going Concern
With the disposition of Valtech, the Company commenced operating in the development stage as it develops its purchased intellectual property. The Company has no revenues and nominal assets other than cash which was raised during May 2012 as part of a private placement. New management has had some preliminary discussions regarding further capitalization of the Company. These plans include the raising of capital through the equity markets to fund future operations and generating adequate revenues for the new business of the Company. Even if the Company raises sufficient capital to support its operating expenses and generates revenues, there can be no assurance that the revenues will be sufficient to enable it to develop business to a level where it will generate profits and cash flows from operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. However, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Development Stage Company
The Company is considered to be in the development stage as defined in ASC 915. The Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to the development of its software platform.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to investment tax credits, bad debts, income taxes and contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term investments with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Comprehensive Income
The Company adopted ASC 220-10, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” (formerly SFAS No. 130). ASC 220-10 requires the reporting of comprehensive income in addition to net income from operations.
Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. For the loans payable, the carrying amount reported is based upon the incremental borrowing rates otherwise available to the Company for similar borrowings.
Currency Translation
For subsidiaries outside the United States that prepare financial statements in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, the Company translates income and expense amounts at average exchange rates for the year, translates assets and liabilities at year-end exchange rates and equity at historical rates. The Company’s functional currency is the Canadian dollar, while the Company reports its currency in the US dollar. The Company records these translation adjustments as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in other income (expense) in the results of operations.
Revenue Recognition
Through April 30, 2012, the Company through Valtech received revenue from subscribers to its triple play network in which it provided digital TV, voice over internet protocol (VoIP), and high speed internet access, all via fiber optic cable. The Company billed its subscribers on a monthly basis and recognized the monthly revenue based upon the specific plan selected by the subscriber. The Company additionally provided contracted services to wire commercial buildings with fiber optic cable in order to provide for similar services. Valtech was sold on April 30, 2012. For reporting periods ended after April 30, 2012, revenues for Valtech are reported net of operating expenses as gain or loss from discontinued operations.
Buildablock is a development stage company and has not yet recorded any revenues. Buildablock plans to recognize revenue from sales when the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred; the selling price is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured.
22 |
The Company plans to record as revenue the net amount it retains fr m the sale of produ ts, excluding any applicab e taxes, after remitting the payment to the merchant minus the transaction fees. Revenue will be recorded on a net basis because the Company plans to act as an agent of the merchant in the transaction.
The Company plans that the merchant will be the primary obligor in these transactions,_ will be s bject to inventory risk, and will have latitude in establishing prices. The Company plans to perform a service by actmg as the agent of the merchant which will be responsible for fulfillment, and therefore revenue is planned to be recorded on a net basis.
Accounts Receivable
The Company conducts business and extends credit based on an evaluation of the customers’ financial condition, generally without requiring collateral.
Exposure to losses on receivables is expected to vary by customer due to the financial condition of each customer. The Company monitors exposure to credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses considered necessary under the circumstances. The Company has no allowance for doubtful accounts as of August 31, 2012.
Accounts receivable are generally due within 30 days and collateral is not required. Unbilled accounts receivable represents amounts due from customers for which billing statements have not been generated and sent to the customers.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes utilizing the liability method of accounting.Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on differences between financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates in effect in years in which differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are expected to be realized.
Advertising Costs
The Company expenses the costs associated with advertising as incurred. Advertising expenses for the nine months ended August 31, 2012 and 2011 are included in administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
Fixed Assets
Fixed
assets are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets; office
and computer equipment -
When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the costs and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in income for the period. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to income as incurred; significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. Deduction is made for retirements resulting from renewals or betterments.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets, primarily fixed assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable. The Company does perform a periodic assessment of assets for impairment in the absence of such information or indicators. Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or a significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets is not recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company recognizes an impairment loss only if its carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted cash flows and measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value.
Basic
net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share (EPS)
includes additional dilution from common stock equivalents, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants.
All shares are reflected post
23 |
In 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 718-10 “Share Based Payments” for its year ended November 30, 2008. The adoption of this principle had no effect on the Company’s operations.
The Company has elected to use the modified-prospective approach method.Under that transition method, the calculated expense in 2006 is equivalent to compensation expense for all awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair values. Stock-based compensation expense for all awards granted after January 1, 2006 is based on the grant-date fair values. The Company recognizes these compensation costs, net of an estimated forfeiture rate, on a pro rata basis over the requisite service period of each vesting tranche of each award.
The Company considers voluntary termination behavior as well as trends of actual option forfeitures when estimating the forfeiture rate. The Company measures compensation expense for its non-employee stock-based compensation under ASC 505-50, “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services”. The fair value of the option issued is used to measure the transaction, as this is more reliable than the fair value of the services received. The fair value is measured at the value of the Company’s common stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the counterparty has been reached or the counterparty’s performance is complete. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to expense and additional paid-in capital.
Segment Information
The Company follows the provisions of ASC 280-10, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”. This standard requires that companies disclose operating segments based on the manner in which management disaggregates the Company in making internal operating decisions. As of November 30, 2012 and for the years ended November 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company operates in only one segment and in only one geographical location.
Reclassifications
The Company has reclassified certain amounts in its condensed consolidated statement of operations for the year ended November 30, 2011 to conform with the November 30, 2012 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the net loss for the year ended November 30, 2011.
Uncertainty in Income Taxes
The Company follows ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“ASC 740-10”). This interpretation requires recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” approach. ASC 740-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management has adopted ASC 740-10 for 2009, and they evaluate their tax positions on an annual basis, and has determined that as ofN ovember 30, 2012, no additional accrual for income taxes other than the federal and state provisions is considered necessary.
Fair Value Measurements
In September 2006, the FASB issued ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is encouraged. The adoption of ASC 820 is not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued ASC 825-10, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities- Including an amendment of ASC 320-10, (“ASC 825-10”) which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity is required to report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. This statement is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement. ASC 825-10 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. ASU 2011-04 amends and clarifies the measurement and disclosure requirements of ASC 820 resulting in common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements, clarification of how to apply existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements, and changes to certain principles and requirements for measuring fair value and disclosing information about fair value measurements. The new requirements are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this amended guidance, which did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
24 |
In June 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which amends the disclosure and presentation requirements of Comprehensive Income. Specifically, ASU No. 2011-05 requires that all nonowner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented either in 1) a single continuous statement_ of compreh nsive income or 2) two separate but consecutive statements, in which the first statement presents total net mcome and its components, and the second statement presents total other comprehensive income and its components.
The Company adopted this amended guidance, which did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
In September 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which amended goodwill impairment guidance to provide an option for entities to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. After assessing the totality of events and circumstances, if an entity determines that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, performance of the two-step impairment test is no longer required. This guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011.
There were other updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 9 - PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes are determined using the liability method for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and income tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Deferred income taxes are measured based on the tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences are included in the Company’s tax return. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on anticipated future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.
NOTE 10 - FAIR VALOE MEASUREMENTS
On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted ASC 820. ASC 820 defines fair value, provides a consistent framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and expands fair value financial statement disclosure requirements. ASC 820’s valuation techniques are based on observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect readily obtainable data from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. ASC 820 classifies these inputs into the following hierarchy:
Level 1 inputs: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 inputs: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3 inputs: Instruments with primarily unobservable value drivers.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. As of November 30, 2011, the Company’s chief executive officer/chief financial officer conducted an evaluation regarding the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d- 15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon the evaluation of these controls and procedures, our chief executive officer/chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the fiscal year 2011.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for the assessment of the effectiveness of those internal controls. As defined by the SEC, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by our principal executive officer/principal financial officer, who is also the sole member of our Board of Directors, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of November 30, 2011. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control- Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment and those criteria, we have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of November 30, 2011.
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 were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting or in other factors identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during the fourth quarter ended November 30, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
