PART I
Item 1. Business
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
In General
We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 14, 2011. We intend to commence operations in the business of distributing crystallized glass tile in North America. This material can be used in any residential, commercial indoor and outdoor surfacing applications generally for flooring. We have not generated any revenues and our principal business activities to date consist of creating a business plan and entering into a Marketing and Sales Distribution Agreement dated December 27, 2011 with Jiangxi Dafeng Trading Co., Ltd., a private Chinese company that is an established distributor of crystallized glass tile. The prices to be paid by us under the Agreement are fixed and can be changed only with a supplemental written agreement between Jiangxi Dafeng Trading Co., Ltd. and us.
We will require additional proceeds in order to commence our proposed plan of operations for the next 12 months. Our plan of operation is forward-looking and there is no assurance that we will ever begin operations. The total estimated amount of funds required to develop our business is $40,000. We need funds for general administrative expenses, business development, marketing costs, support materials and costs associated with being a publicly reporting company. We are a development stage company and have not earned any revenue from operations to date. It is likely that we will not be able to achieve profitability and will have to cease operations due to the lack of funding.
Our product is used principally in new developments, commercial and residential construction and in home improvement, remodeling and repair work. The success of our business plan will depend on the level of new construction and activity in the retail sales market. A downturn of commercial and residential new start-ups, as well as a decrease in home improvement activity, can adversely affect our intended business.
We plan to distribute our crystallized glass tile in the North American markets to wholesale customers. We plan to fill placed orders and to supply the products within a period of 30 days or less following receipt of any written order. We do not intend to offer any credit terms relating to order payments. Our customers will be asked to pay us 30% in advance and pay the remaining amount due within three days after the product is loaded and has departed a sea port. Customers will have two options to pay for products: by wire transfer or by sending a check/money order. If a customer decides to pay by check/money order, then we will wait a certain number of days before shipping to have the check/money order cleared. Customers will be responsible for shipping costs. Since we anticipate having a 30-day period to process and fill orders, we do not plan to purchase inventory in advance, but rather on a request basis. We do not intend to store inventory for any period of time. The orders will be shipped to the customers depending on their requests. Customers will be responsible for custom duties, taxes or any other additional charges that may arise. All shipments will be 100% insured for the value of the shipment, and the insurance cost for risk of damage or loss will be each customers responsibility.
Product Overview
Crystallized glass is a synthetic building material which consists of natural stone powder and crushed glass melted during 24 hours at the high temperature of 1,500 degrees Celsius. Crystallized glass tile can be used in any residential, commercial indoor or outdoor surfacing application. We chose to distribute crystallized glass tile, as opposed to some other type of tile or flooring material because we believe that it is a new and innovative construction material, and it has true white color, high hardness and wear resistance as it is made under extremely high temperatures. We anticipate that crystallized glass will become a very popular flooring material.
4
We plan to distribute white crystallized glass tile. We will offer two sizes, 24" x 24" x 3/4 and 32" x 32" x 3/4".
Potential Customers
Our President and Director, John Pulos, will market our product and negotiate with potential customers. We intend to develop and maintain a database of potential customers who may want to buy crystallized glass tile from us. We will follow up with these clients periodically and offer them free samples, presentations and special discounts from time to time. We plan to attend trade shows in our industry to showcase our product with a view to finding new customers.
We expect that our potential clients will consist of the following:
1.
Flooring material distributors;
2.
Specialized home building and restoration stores;
3.
Chain stores that sell various types of building materials; and
4.
Contractors, homebuilders and developers.
We will charge our clients wholesale prices for our product. Retailers and distributors will resell our product at retail prices which are typically 25% to 40% higher. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to execute successful contracts with the potential customers who will buy our crystallized glass tile, in which case our business may fail and we will have to cease our operations.
Competition
The building products distribution industry is extremely fragmented and competitive. Competitors will include companies with substantial customer bases and working history. There can be no assurance that we can maintain a competitive position against current or future competitors, particularly those with greater financial, marketing, service, technical and other resources. Our failure to maintain a competitive position within the market could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors, and competitive pressures faced by us may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Some of the competitive factors that may affect our business are as follows:
1.
Increase in Number of Competitors: other companies may follow our business model of distributing lower priced crystallized glass tile, which will reduce our competitive edge.
2.
Price: Our competitors may be selling similar products at lower prices, forcing us to lower our prices as well and possibly sell our product at loss.
3.
Substitute Products: crystallized glass tile may be substituted by similar material, such as natural stone or porcelain tiles. Consumer preferences for crystallized glass may change over time, which may affect our business positively or negatively depending on whether crystallized glass tile is preferred more or less.
Marketing
We intend to enter into agreements with numerous local flooring distributors, home building and restoration stores, developers and homebuilders who would order crystallized glass tile from us. As of today, we have not identified any potential counterparties to these agreements and we have not entered into any discussions with contractors and homebuilders. Our competitive advantage is that we offer a high quality and innovative product, while maintaining reasonable prices.
5
We intend to use marketing strategies, such as web advertisements, direct mailing, and phone calls to acquire potential customers. We plan to develop a website to market and display our products. As of the date of this annual report, we have not yet identified or registered any domain names for our website. To accomplish this, we plan to contract an independent web designing company. Our website will describe our product in detail, show our contact information, and include some general information and pictures of crystallized glass tile. We intend to attract traffic to our website through a variety of online marketing tactics, such as registering with top search engines using selected key words and metatags, and utilizing link and banner exchange options. We intend to promote our website by displaying it on our promotion materials.
We also plan to attend trade shows in construction industry to showcase our product with a view to find new customers. We will intend to continue our marketing efforts during the life of our operations. We intend to spend from $14,000 to $25,000 on marketing efforts during the first year of operations, subject to financing. There is no guarantee that we will be able to attract, and more importantly, retain enough customers to justify our expenditures. If we are unable to generate a significant amount of revenue and to successfully protect ourselves against those risks, then this would materially affect our financial condition and our business could be harmed.
Agreement with our supplier
On December 27, 2011 we signed a Marketing and Sales Distribution Agreement with Jiangxi Dafeng Trading Co., Ltd. (Jiangxi), a private Chinese company. The agreement with Jiangxi contains the following material terms:
1.
Jiangxi grants to us the exclusive right to market, sell and distribute the crystallize glass tile product (the Product) in the United States and Canada.
2.
The initial term of the Agreement shall be for a period of two years, commencing on December 27, 2011. The Agreement may be extended by mutual written consent of the parties.
3.
The rights granted to us under the agreement shall terminate upon the occurrence of any the following events: 1) our failure to sell a minimum of $250,000 of the Product annually during the first two years of the Term (Initial Minimum Sale Period); or 2) our failure to increase the sale of the Product by a minimum of 10 percent each year after the Initial Minimum Sale Period.
4.
We will pay 30% fee as advance and 70% within seven days after the Product is loaded and departed from the sea and a bill of lading is sent.
5.
Prices are fixed as specified in pro forma and commercial invoices that accompany each batch of the goods. The price includes packaging, normal marks, loading and export custom charges.
6.
The delivery of the Product shall be free on board as per INCOTERMS 2010, or the latest version available - pumped in ships manifold, Shanghai (local) Port, China.
7.
Quality analysis is to be based on samples. Acceptance of the goods on quality is made within 20 days from the moment of reception of the goods in a warehouse of the final buyer.
8.
All costs, duties, and audit taxes related to cargo at the loading port at time of shipment shall be for Jiangxis account.
As of the date of this annual report, we do not plan to retain other suppliers. If Jiangxi decreased or terminated its relationship with us, our business would likely fail if we are unable to find a substitute for that company.
John Pulos, our president, will be devoting approximately 20% of his business time to our operations. Once we begin operations, and are able to attract more and more customers to use our service, Mr. Pulos has agreed to commit more time as required. Because Mr. Pulos will only be devoting limited time to our operations, our operations may be sporadic and occur at times which are inconvenient to his. As a result, operations may be periodically interrupted or suspended, which could result in a lack of revenues and a cessation of operations.

Description of property
We do not have an ownership or leasehold interest in any property.
Insurance
We do not maintain any insurance and do not intend to maintain insurance in the future. Because we do not have any insurance, if we are made a party of a products liability action, we may not have sufficient funds to defend the litigation. If that occurs a judgment could be rendered against us that could cause us to cease operations.
Research and Development Expenditures
We have not incurred any research expenditures since our incorporation.
Bankruptcy or Similar Proceedings
There has been no bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding.
Director Independence
Our board of directors is currently composed of one member, John Pulos, who does not qualify as an independent director in accordance with the published listing requirements of the NASDAQ Global Market. The NASDAQ independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that the director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of our employees and that neither the director, nor any of her family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, our board of directors has not made a subjective determination as to each director that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of our board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, though such subjective determination is required by the NASDAQ rules. Had our board of directors made these determinations, our board of directors would have reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and us with regard to each directors business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to us and our management.
Employees; Identification of Certain Significant Employees.
We are a development stage company and currently have no employees, other than our sole officer and director John Pulos.
Offices
The office is located at 2711 N Sepulveda Blvd, Suite 323, Manhattan Beach, CA 90266. This is the office of our director, Mr. Pulos. We do not pay any rent to Mr. Pulos and there is no agreement to pay any rent in the future.
Government Regulations
We do not believe that regulation will have a material impact on the way we conduct our business. We will be required to comply with all regulations, rules and directives of governmental authorities and agencies applicable to the industry in any jurisdiction which we would conduct activities. Our supplier will be responsible for export customs duties in the People's Republic of China and our customers will be responsible for tariffs or "customs duties" according to The Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States. A tariff or duty is a tax levied by governments on the value of imported products.

Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
This section of the annual report includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this prospectus. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or our predictions.
We are a development stage corporation and only recently started our operations. We have not generated or realized any revenues from our business operations. Our cash balance is $0 as of November 30, 2012. Our current cash balance will not be sufficient to fund our operations for the next 12 months and to qualify our minimum cash requirements necessary to fund 12 months of operations, if we are unable to successfully raise money we will not be able to continue.
Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that our auditors believe there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated any revenues. We do not expect to generate significant revenues in the next twelve months. We will need to raise funds through stock offerings or director loans to fund future operations. If we are unable to obtain additional working capital, our business may fail. Accordingly, we must raise cash from sources other than operations. Our only other source for cash at this time is investments by shareholders in our company. We must raise cash to implement our projected plan of operations.
According to the National Association of Home Builders statistic data (Table 1), there was a substantial downturn in new single-family house sales beginning in the second half of 2005. Our product is used principally in new building construction and home improvement, remodeling and repair work. Residential construction activity for new construction, repair and remodeling is closely linked to a variety of factors affected by general economic conditions, including employment levels, job and household formation, interest rates, housing prices, availability of mortgage financing, retail sales market and consumer confidence. Therefore, any downturn in new single-family house sales as well as economic downturn adversely affects our intended business.
In 2013, the number of new single-family house sales started to grow. If this number continues growing it will have favorable impact on our business and our revenue, but there is no assurance that new single-family house sales will continue growing in the future.

Plan of Operation
We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 14, 2011. We have never declared bankruptcy, have never been in receivership, and have never been involved in any legal action or proceedings. Since incorporation, we have not made any significant purchase or sale of assets. We are a development stage company that has not generated any revenue and just recently started our operations. From April 14, 2011 (inception) to November 30, 2013, we have incurred accumulated net losses of $41,027.
Our business is the distribution of crystallized glass tile in North America. This material can be used in any residential, commercial indoor and outdoor surfacing applications. We have not generated any revenues and our principal business activities to date consist of creating a business plan and entering into Marketing and Sales Distribution Agreement dated December 27, 2011 with Jiangxi Dafeng Trading Co., Ltd., a private Chinese company and established distributor of crystallized glass tile. The prices that we will pay under the agreement are fixed and can be changed only with a supplemental written agreement between Jiangxi Dafeng Trading Co., Ltd. and us. Our customers will be asked to pay us 30% of each order amount in advance and pay the remaining amount due within three days after the product is loaded and has departed a sea port. Customers will have two options to pay for products: by wire transfer or by sending a check/money order. If a customer decides to pay by check/money order, then we will wait a certain number of days before shipping for the check/money order to clear. Customers will be responsible for covering the shipping costs. Customers will be responsible for all custom duties, taxes or any other
10
additional charges that might incur. All shipments will be 100% insured for the value of the shipment and the insurance cost will be the customers responsibility.
We will not be conducting any product research or development. We do not expect to purchase or sell plant or significant equipment. Further, we do not expect significant changes in our number of employees in the next 12 months.
We expect to be fully operating and selling our product within 12 months, subject to financing. Until we start to sell our crystallized glass tile, our operations will not be profitable. If we are unable to attract customers and cannot generate sufficient revenues to continue operations, we will suspend or cease operations. If we cease operations, we likely will dissolve and file for bankruptcy and shareholders would lose their entire investment in our company.
Mr. Pulos, our president will be devoting approximately 20% of his business time to our operations. Once we expand operations, and are able to attract more and more customers to buy our product, Mr. Pulos has agreed to commit more time as required. Because Mr. Pulos will only be devoting limited time to our operations, our operations may be sporadic and occur at times which are inconvenient to him. As a result, operations may be periodically interrupted or suspended, which could result in a lack of revenues and a cessation of operations.
Limited operating history; need for additional capital
There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are in the start-up stage operations and have not generated any revenues. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services and products.
There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising funds or that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.
Results of operations
The following discussion and analysis provides information that we believe is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operation and financial condition for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2013 as compared to the fiscal year ended November 30, 2012. Unless otherwise stated, all figures herein are expressed in U.S. dollars, which is the Companys functional currency.
Comparison of the fiscal years ended November 30, 2013and 2012
Revenue
During the fiscal years ended November 30, 2013 and November 30, 2012, the Company generated no revenue.
Expenses
During the fiscal year ended November 30, 2013, the Company reported total operating expense of $ 20,351 as compared to $20,276 during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2012, an increase of $75. The increase in legal and accounting was offset by the decrease in consulting and operation and administration.
11
Net Loss
The company had a net loss of $20,351 as compared to $20,276 during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2012, an increase of $75. The increase in legal and accounting was offset by the decrease in consulting and operation and administration.
Liquidity and capital resources
Management currently believes that the Company may not have sufficient working capital needed to meet its current fiscal obligations. In order to continue to meet its fiscal obligations beyond the next twelve months, management has plans to pursue various financing alternatives including, but not limited to, merger and acquisition activity, raising capital through the equity markets and debt financing.
The primary source for capital for the Company is the equity markets. Management plans to continue its canvassing efforts of investors and financial institutions to invest capital in the Company through private placement offerings of common shares or units consisting of common shares and warrants. The terms and pricing of any such financing would be determined in the context of the markets. The Company has not entered into an agency agreement or arrangement with any financial institution to raise capital at this time.
Should the Company not be successful at raising capital through the issuance of capital stock, the Company may consider raising capital by the issuance of debt. However, unless the appropriate features, such as convertible options, are attached to the debt instruments, this form of financing is less desirable until such time as the Company may be in a position to reasonably foresee the generation of cash flow to service and repay debt. The Company does not currently have plans to issue debt.
Current Assets and Total Assets
As of November 30, 2013, the balance sheet reflects that the Company had: i) total current assets of $0, as compared to total current assets of $3,333 at November 30, 2012, a decrease of $3,333; and ii) total assets of $0, as compared to total assets of $3,333 at November 30, 2012, a decrease of $3,333. The decrease in current assets was primarily due to cash used in operating activities.
Total Current Liabilities and Total Liabilities
As of November 30, 2013, the balance sheet reflects that the Company had total current liabilities and total liabilities of $17,627, compared to total current liabilities and total liabilities of $609 at November 30, 2012, an increase of $17,018. The increase in liabilities was due to: an increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses, and loans from related party, which was comprised of ongoing operational invoices.
Cash Flow
During the fiscal year ended November 30, 2013 cash was primarily used to fund operations. The Company reported a net decrease in cash during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2013 as compared to a net increase in cash for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2012. See below for additional discussion and analysis of cash flow.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Avalanche International, Corp.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Avalanche International, Corp. (A Development Stage Company) as of November 30, 2013 and 2012 and the related statements of operations, stockholders deficit and cash flows for the periods then ended and for the period from April 14, 2011 (inception) through November 30, 2013. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
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 companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Avalanche International, Corp. (A Development Stage Company) for the periods ended as of November 30, 2013 and 2012 and the related statements of operations, stockholders deficit and cash flows for the periods then ended and for the period from April 14, 2011 (inception) through November 30, 2013 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note #1 to the financial statements, although the Company has limited operations it has yet to attain profitability. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note #1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2013
_____________________________________________________________________________________
1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
Organization and business operations
AVALANCHE INTERNATIONAL, CORP. (the Company) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, U.S. on April 14, 2011. The company plans to distribute crystallized glass tile in the North American markets to wholesale customers. The Company is in the development stage as defined under Accounting Codification Standard, Development Stage Entities (ASC-915). The Company has not generated any revenue to date and consequently its operations are subject to all risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. For the period from inception on April 14, 2011 through November 30, 2013 the Company has accumulated losses of $41,027.
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $41,027 as of November 30, 2013 and further losses are anticipated in the development of its business raising substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand and loans from directors and or private placement of common stock.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which management believes are necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company as of and for years ending November 30, 2013 and 2012 and for the period from April 14, 2011 (inception) through November 30, 2013.
The Companys fiscal year end is November 30.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Fair Value of Financial instruments
The Company adopted FASB ASC 820-10-50, Fair Value Measurements. This guidance defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 inputs to valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair measurement.
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for the cash and cash equivalents, and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest.
Income taxes
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has issued FASB ASC 740-10 (Prior authoritative literature: Financial Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48)). FASB ASC 740-10 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with prior literature FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This standard requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements. As a result of the implementation of this standard, the Company performed a review of its material tax positions in accordance with recognition and measurement standards established by FASB ASC 740-10.
Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Basic and diluted net loss per share
The Company computes net loss per share of common stock in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share (ASC 260). Under the provisions of ASC 260, basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants and the conversion of convertible promissory notes.
The Companys calculation of basic and diluted loss per share is as follows:

Use of estimates and assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. In these financial statements, assets, liabilities and earnings involve extensive reliance on managements estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Companys periodic filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) include, where applicable, disclosures of estimates, assumptions, uncertainties, and market that could affect the financial statements and future operations of the Company.
Concentrations of credit risk
The Companys financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of its cash and related party payables. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions of high credit worthiness. At times, its cash equivalents with a particular financial institution may exceed any applicable government insurance limits. The Companys management also routinely assesses the financial strength and credit worthiness of any parties to which it extends funds and as such, it believes that any associated credit risk exposures are limited.

6. INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are accounted for under the assets and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
As of November 30, 2013, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of $41,027 that may be available to reduce future years taxable income through 2032.
7. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Avalanche International, Corp. has evaluated subsequent events for the period November 30, 2013 through February 12, 2014 and concluded there were no other events or transactions occurring during this period that required recognition or disclosure in its financial statements.
F-10
Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
We have not had any changes or disagreements with our accountants required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 304 of Regulation S-K.
Item 9A(t). Controls and Procedures.
Management has evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting (ICFR) as of November 30, 2013 based on the control criteria established in a report entitled Internal Control - Integrated Framework published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, known as COSO. Based on our assessment and those criteria, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting had the following deficiencies and material weaknesses as of November 30, 2013:
1) Certain control procedures were unable to be verified due to performance of the procedure not being sufficiently documented. As an example, some procedures requiring review of certain reports could not be verified due to there being no written notation on the report by the reviewer. Because we were unable to verify these procedures, we conclude that as of November 30, 2013 there were control deficiencies related to the preparation and review of our interim and annual consolidated financial statements, in particular with respect to certain account reconciliations, journal entries and spreadsheets. While none of these control deficiencies resulted in audit adjustments to our 2013 interim or annual financial statements, they could result in a material misstatement to our interim or annual financial statements that would not be prevented or detected, and therefore we have determined that these control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses.
2) Certain of our personnel had access to various financial application programs and data that was beyond the requirements of their individual job responsibilities. While this control deficiency did not result in any audit adjustments to our 2013 interim or annual consolidated financial statements, it could result in a material misstatement to our interim or consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected, and therefore we have determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.
3) We did not maintain a level of personnel sufficient to execute certain computing controls over our information technology structure. While this control deficiency did not result in any audit adjustments to our 2012 interim or annual financial statements, it could result in a material misstatement to our interim or consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected, and therefore we have determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.
4) We did not maintain adequate segregation of duties within certain areas impacting our financial reporting. While this control deficiency did not result in any audit adjustments to our 2013 interim or annual financial statements, it could result in a material misstatement to our interim or consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected, and therefore we have determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.
To the extent reasonably possible given our resources, we will seek the advice of outside consultants and utilize internal resources to implement additional internal controls to address the above identified material
weaknesses. We are taking steps to implement additional review and approval procedures applicable to our financial reporting process, and are in the planning phase of creating and implementing new information technology policies and procedures related to controls over information technology operations, security and change management.
15
Through these steps, we believe that we are addressing the deficiencies that affected our internal control over financial reporting as of November 30, 2013. Because the remedial actions require upgrading certain of our information technology systems, relying extensively on manual review and approval processes, and possibly hiring of additional personnel, we may not be able to conclude that these material weaknesses have been remedied until these controls have been successfully operation for some period of time.
Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. It is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. It also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override.
Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process certain safeguards to reduce, thought not eliminate, this risk. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting.
This report does not include an attestation of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting, pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only managements report in this annual report.
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth quarter of 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Item 9B. Other Information.
(a) Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated subsequent events from November 30, 2013 through the date whereupon the financial statements were issued and has determined that there are no items to disclose.

PART III
Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance.
Our sole director will serve until his successor is elected and qualified. Our sole officer is elected by the board of directors to a term of one year and serves until his successor is duly elected and qualified, or until he is removed from office. The board of directors has no nominating, auditing or compensation committees.
The name, address, age and position of our present officers and directors are set forth below:
Name and Address | Age | Position(s) |
John Pulos | 46 | President, Principal Executive Officer, Secretary, Treasurer, |
2711 N Sepulveda Blvd, Ste 323 |
| Principal Financial Officer, Principal Accounting Officer |
Manhattan Beach, CA 90266 |
| and sole member of the Board of Directors. |
The person named above has held his offices/positions since February 4, 2013 in our company and is expected to hold his offices/positions until the next annual meeting of our stockholders.
Biographical Information and Background of officers and directors
Set forth below is a brief description of the background and business experience of our sole executive officer and director for the past five years.
Mr. John Pulos is principal Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company and a member of its board of directors. Mr. Pulos has been involved in the real estate market for the past 20 years with a focus on development, investment and obtaining land entitlements throughout the United States and Canada.

Conflicts of Interest
The only conflict that we foresee are that our sole officer and director will devote time to projects that do not involve us.
Audit Committee Financial Expert
We do not have an audit committee financial expert. We do not have an audit committee financial expert because we believe the cost related to retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive.

Concurrently, we appointed John Pulos as our President, C.E.O., Secretary
Treasurer, as well as a director in place of Yulia Goldfinger, who resigned from these positions and her director position on the same date. At the time of her resignation, Ms. Goldfinger was our sole executive officer.
Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
Transactions with related persons
There were no material transactions, or series of similar transactions, during our Companys last fiscal year, or any currently proposed transactions, or series of similar transactions, to which our Company was or is to be a party, in which the amount involved exceeded the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of the small business issuers total assets at year-end for the last year completed fiscal year and in which any director, executive officer or any security holder who is known to us to own of record or beneficially more than five percent of any class of our common stock, or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, had an interest.

Director Independence
The NASDAQ Stock Market has instituted director independence guidelines that have been adopted by the Securities & Exchange Commission. These guidelines provide that a director is deemed independent only if the board of directors affirmatively determines that the director has no relationship with the company which, in the boards opinion, would interfere with the directors exercise of independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibilities. Significant stock ownership will not, by itself, preclude a board finding of independence.
For NASDAQ Stock Market listed companies, the director independence rules list six types of disqualifying relationships that preclude an independence filing. The Companys board of directors may not find independent a director who:
1.
is an employee of the company or any parent or subsidiary of the company;
2.
accepts, or who has a family member who accepts, more than $60,000 per year in payments from the company or any parent or subsidiary of the company other than (a) payments from board or committee services; (b) payments arising solely from investments in the companys securities; (c) compensation paid to a family member who is a non-executive employee of the company (d) benefits under a tax qualified retirement plan or non-discretionary compensation; or (e) loans to directors and executive officers permitted under Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act;
3.
is a family member of an individual who is employed as an executive officer by the company or any parent or subsidiary of the company;
4.
is, or has a family member who is, a partner in, or a controlling shareholder or an executive officer of, any organization to which the company made, or from which the company received, payments for property or services that exceed 5% of the recipients consolidated gross revenues for that year, or $200,000, whichever is more, other than (a) payments arising solely from investments in the companys securities or (b) payments under non-discretionary charitable contribution matching programs;
5.
is employed, or who has a family member who is employed, as an executive officer of another company whose compensation committee includes any executive officer of the listed company; or
6.
is, or has a family member who is, a current partner of the companys outside auditor, or was a partner or employee of the companys outside auditor who worked on the companys audit.
Based upon the foregoing criteria, our Board of Directors has determined that John Pulos is not an independent director under these rules as he is also employed as officers of the Company.
