Organization and basis of presentation
Basis of presentation
The accompanying interim condensed financial statements are unaudited, but in the opinion of management of Blue Calypso, Inc. f/k/a JJ&R Ventures, Inc. (the Company), contain all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position at June 30, 2011, the results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 is derived from the Company’s audited financial statements.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, although management of the Company believes that the disclosures contained in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented therein not misleading. For further information, refer to the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2011.
Description of business
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 2, 2007. The principal activities of the Company, from the beginning of the development stage, have been organizational matters and the sale of stock. The Company was formed to provide child education services.
Pervasiveness of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, 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. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents
For financial statement presentation purposes, the Company considers all short term investments with a maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes the price paid to acquire the assets, including interest capitalized during the period and any expenditure that substantially add to the value of or substantially extend the useful life of an existing asset. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.

Footnotes to the Condensed Financial Statements

Income Tax
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 "Income Taxes" which codified SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations.
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260 "Earnings Per Share" which codified SFAS No. 128. "Earnings per Share." ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per Share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Accounting Standard Codification ASC 825 "Financial Instruments" codified Statement of financial accounting standard No. 107, Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments, requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments. Unless otherwise indicated, the fair values of all reported assets and liabilities, which represent financial instruments, none of which are held for trading purposes, approximate are carrying values of such amounts.
Stock-based compensation
ASC 718 "Compensation - Stock Compensation" codified SFAS No. 123 prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all stock-based compensation plans payments award to employees, including employee stock options, restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights, may be classified as either equity or liabilities. The Company should determine if a present obligation to settle the share-based payment transaction in cash or other assets exists. A present obligation to settle in cash or other assets exists if: (a) the option to settle by issuing equity instruments lacks commercial substance or (b) the present obligation is implied because of an entity's past practices or stated policies. If a present obligation exists, the transaction should be recognized as a liability; otherwise, the transaction should be recognized as equity.
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50 "Equity - Based Payments to Non-Employees" which codified SFAS 123 and the Emerging Issues Task Force consensus in Issue No. 96-18 ("EITF 96-18"), "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services". Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction should be determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.
Issuance of shares for service The Company accounts for the issuance of equity instruments to acquire goods and services based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more reliably measurable.
Recognition of Revenues
Revenues are recognized when the risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the customer, based on the terms of sale. This occurs upon shipment or upon receipt by the customer depending on the country of the sale and the agreement with the customer. Provisions for sales discounts, returns and miscellaneous claims from customers are made at the time of sale.

New accounting pronouncements
The following accounting pronouncements if implemented would have no effect on the financial statements of the Company.
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an accounting standard update, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820), Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. The Update would affect all entities that are required to make disclosures about recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The Board concluded that users will benefit from improved disclosures in this Update and that the benefits of the increased transparency in financial reporting will outweigh the costs of complying with the new requirements. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 30, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact this update will have on our financial statements.

Going concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the company has minimal revenues, net accumulated losses since inception, and a retained deficit of $158,764. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the company’s ability to raise additional funds and implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Description of Business.
General
We were formed as a Nevada corporation on March 2, 2007 as JJ&R Ventures, Inc. On July 21, 2011, JJ&R Ventures, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with its newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary Blue Calypso, Inc. (“Blue Calypso”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Blue Calypso was merged into and with the Company (the “Merger”). In connection with the Merger and in accordance with Section 92A.180 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”), the name of the Company was changed from “JJ&R Ventures, Inc.” to “Blue Calypso, Inc.”
On July 21, 2011, the Company filed a Certificate of Change to its Articles of Incorporation in order to effect a forward split of all of its outstanding shares of common stock at a ratio of three and four tenths (3.4) for one (1) (the “Forward Split”). The record date for the Forward Split is August 1, 2011. The Forward Split was effected by the board of directors of the Company in accordance with Section 78.207 of the NRS by correspondingly increasing the number of shares of common stock that the Company is authorized to issued from Two Hundred Million (200,000,000) shares to Six Hundred Eighty Million (680,000,000) shares.
The Company in the business of developing and marketing educational book series, consisting of books, presentations, and flash cards focusing on healthy nutrition information for children. Our goal is to promote our books and educational materials by also developing educational programs for kids and parents throughout the United States. The educational programs will start with our “What’s in My Food?” series designed to help kids to see the value of eating healthy.
The Company is continuing to seek new business opportunities and is currently negotiating with an entity has developed a social mobile endorsement and brand loyalty platform regarding a potential merger. The Company is currently negotiating the terms of a potential merger transaction with such entity, however, the Company can provide no assurance that it will be able to come to an agreement with such entity regarding the transaction. In accordance with the terms of the proposed merger agreement, Deborah Flores, the sole member of the Company’s board of directors will resign from the board of directors effective upon the later of April 8, 2011 or the closing of the merger. It is also anticipated that immediately after the consummation of the merger, the Company will transfer all of its pre-merger assets and liabilities to its wholly-owned subsidiary, JJ&R Ventures Holdings, Inc. (“SplitCo”). Thereafter, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement, the Company will transfer all of the outstanding shares of SplitCo to certain of its stockholders in exchange for the cancellation of 51,000,000 shares Common Stock (the “Stock Cancellation”). In connection with the merger, the Company will issue an aggregate of 1,500,000 shares of its Series A Preferred Stock to be designated in connection with the ,erger. Immediately after the consummation of the proposed merger and Stock Cancellation, the holders of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the merger candidate would own approximately eighty percent (80%) of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. A condition to the closing of the Merger is that all of the current officers and directors of the Company resign and that the merger candidate appoint new officers and directors.
Our business
The Company is in the business of developing children’s books, flash cards, and other learning materials on most urgent and popular subjects for sale to the general public.

Initially, we plan on focusing primarily on the subject of healthy eating habits for kids. Childhood obesity is a very hot topic discussed daily in the news media. We believe that our initial product, “What’s in My Food?” will attract the attention of parents and early education specialists and will help us enter the competitive market of children’s books and educational materials. What’s in My Food series of books and flash cards address what we believe to be a current gap in health and living section of children’s literature and are designed to teach the kids and their parents how to make good choices for healthy living and interactions with others through stories as seen through the eyes of a child. The book is currently designed to be up to 30 pages long, in paper back and in full color. We believe that a competitive bright styling of the book and other related materials will initially appeal to the kids and attract their interest, and will fit in with the standards of most book stores.
Our second line of products, currently under development, is foreign language learning materials. JJ&R is developing foreign language flash cards, printed on a solid gloss paper stock for the durability and ease of use. Parents and early education professionals will be able to introduce young learners to multiple languages through repetitive use of our flash cards, with each card showing a word in English, Spanish and sign language. Each card will also include a picture to visually connect with the word and help the child hold it in the long term memory bank.
Our revenues are derived from sales of our educational products. We also plan on organizing seminars designed to attract children and their parents and put them in touch with the professionals specializing in the subject matter covered by the seminar. For example, for our “What’s in My Food” series seminars, we may invite local pediatricians, nutritionists and diet specialists to give lectures to local kids and their parents on the values of good eating. The seminars will be free to the attendants, but fee-based to the presenters since the seminars will be a valuable way for these professionals to attract new clients. JJ&R will be actively marketing its products both to the attendants and the presenters, providing for a good cross-marketing opportunity. We intend to target preschools, elementary schools, home school groups & after school programs and need to cultivate a significant base of users in order to generate a ratable flow of sales and revenue. We do not believe that any single customer will be our major revenue stream.
