NOTE 2 – PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The unaudited interim financial statements of the Company and the Company’s subsidiaries (see Note 1) for the nine months and three months ended February 28, 2015 and 2014 have been prepared pursuant to the rules & regulations of the SEC. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however the Company believes that the following disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The functional currency for the majority of the Company’s operations is in Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”), while the reporting currency is U.S. Dollar.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of February 28, 2015, the results of its operations and cash flows for the nine months and three months ended February 28, 2015 and 2014.

The results of operations for the nine months and three months ended February 28, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year period.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains bank accounts in mainland China and Hong Kong.

(b) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables and deposits, tax recoverable, amount due from/(to) related parties, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other payables, and taxes payable.

The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company, using available market information or other appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of fair value. Consequently, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized or would be paid in a current market exchange.

As of the balance sheet dates, the estimated fair values of the financial instruments were not materially different from their carrying values as presented, due to the short maturities of these instruments.
 
 

(c) Revenue recognition

The Company has adopted a revenue recognition policy for each type of operation according to ASC 605-45.

Revenue represents the invoiced value of services rendered and receivable during the year. Revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are met:

-           Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
-           Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;
-           The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and
-           Collectability is reasonably assured.

Revenue recognition policy for each of the major products and services:

1.           Discounted call services for consumer (EMS) as follows:

•           Collaboration with China Tie Tong Telecommunications (“CTT”) – Redtone China is appointed as the sole distributor for EMS and will recognize revenue when airtime is utilized by the consumer and revenue is recognized on a net basis which is computed based on a fixed sharing ratio of the total airtime utilized by consumers after netting the direct traffic termination costs and incidental expenses. Redtone China’s role for Business Collaboration with CTT is as an “Agent” as Redtone China is the sole distributor for the EMS brand owned and controlled by CTT; and

•           Collaboration with other telecommunication providers – Redtone China will act as a discounted consumer call Reseller whereby Redtone China determines the service and package specification and the pricing policy whereas China Unicom acts as a passive termination partner for call traffic. Redtone China will pay China Unicom solely based on call traffic termination by China Unicom at a prescribed rate (defined as traffic termination cost on the books of Redtone China). In this regard, Redtone China will recognize revenue when airtime is utilized by the consumer and the revenue recognized is the gross value of the call charges. Redtone China’s role for Business Collaboration with China Unicom is that of “Principal” as China Unicom is playing a passive role as the traffic termination partner while Redtone China is fully responsible for the entire management of the discounted call services.

As this is a prepaid product, there is an expiration date for the product sold. If the airtime is not utilized by the expiration date, which is currently one year from the activation date, the product will be deemed to be expired and the revenue recognized at the time is the remaining gross value of the expired prepaid product.

2.           Discounted call services for corporate consumers is as follows:

•           Collaboration with CTT – the revenue recognized is the commission earned from distributing the discounted call services to corporate customers; and

•           Collaboration with other telecommunication providers –the revenue recognized is the commission earned from distributing the discounted call services to corporate customers.

3.           Reload services for prepaid mobile services – revenue recognized is the commission earned.

4.           Discontinued prepaid shopping-card services – revenue recognized is the commission earned.

(d) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. As of February 28, 2015 and 2014, there were no dilutive securities outstanding.

(e) Foreign currency translation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars (US$). The functional currencies of the Company are the Hong Kong dollar (HK$) and the Renminbi (RMB), respectively. Capital accounts of the financial statements are translated into United States dollars from HK$ or RMB at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates as of balance sheet date. Income and expenditures are translated at the average exchange rate of the year. The translation rates are as follows:
 
 

   
February 28, 2015
   
May 31, 2014
   
February 28, 2015
 
Period end RMB : US$ exchange rate
    0.1627       0.1621       0.1633  
Average period RMB : US$ exchange rate
    0.1625       0.1629       0.1630  
Period end HK$ : US$ exchange rate
    0.1290       0.1290       0.1289  
Average period HK$ : US$ exchange rate
    0.1290       0.1290       0.1289  

On July 21, 2005, the PRC changed its foreign currency exchange policy from a fixed RMB/US$ exchange rate into a flexible rate under the control of the PRC’s government.

The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at the rates used in translation.

(f) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To increase the comparability of fair value measures, the following hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation methodologies used to measure fair value:

-           Level 1—Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.
-           Level 2—Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
-           Level 3—Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.

We measure the fair value of money market funds and equity securities based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. All other financial instruments were valued based on quoted market prices of similar instruments and other significant inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

(g) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2013, The FASB has issued ASU No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).

U.S. GAAP does not include explicit guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The amendments in this ASU state that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets.

This ASU applies to all entities that have unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists at the reporting date. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted.

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, "Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity." This ASU relates to discontinued operations reporting to disposals of components of an entity that represent strategic shifts that have, or will have, a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results. The standard expands the disclosures for discontinued operations and requires new disclosures related to individually material disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. The provisions of this ASU are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. This ASU is not expected to have an impact on our financial statements or disclosures

The Company does not expect the adoption of these guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Under the contractual arrangements with the VIEs, the Company has the power to direct activities of the VIEs and can have assets transferred freely out of the VIEs without restrictions. Therefore, the Company considers that there is no asset of VIEs that can only be used to settle obligations of the respective VIEs, except for registered capital and PRC statutory reserves of VIEs as of February 28, 2015. Since the VIEs are incorporated as limited liability companies under the PRC Company Law, creditors of the VIEs do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company. There is currently no contractual arrangement that would require the Company to provide additional financial support to the VIEs. As the Company is conducting certain businesses mainly through its VIEs, the Company may provide such support on a discretionary basis in the future, which could expose the Company to a loss.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”). US GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.
 
We believe the following is among the most critical accounting policies that impact our consolidated financial statements. We suggest that our significant accounting policies, as described in our condensed consolidated financial statements in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, be read in conjunction with this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The Company has adopted a revenue recognition policy for each type of operation according to ASC 605-45.

 
 
 
Revenue represents the invoiced value of services rendered and receivable during the year. Revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are met:

 
-
Persuasive evidence an arrangement exists;
 
-
Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;
 
-
The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and
 
-
Collectability is reasonably assured.

Revenue recognition policy for each of the major products and services:

1.
Discounted call services for consumer (EMS) as follows:

Collaboration with China Tie Tong Telecommunications (“CTT”) – Redtone China is appointed as the sole distributor for EMS and will recognize revenue when airtime is utilized by the consumer and revenue is recognized on a net basis which is computed based on a fixed sharing ratio of the total airtime utilized by consumers after netting the direct traffic termination costs and incidental expenses. Redtone China’s role for Business Collaboration with CTT is as an “Agent” as Redtone China is the sole distributor for the EMS brand owned and controlled by CTT; and

Collaboration with other telecommunication providers – Redtone China will act as a discounted consumer call Reseller whereby Redtone China determines the service and package specification and the pricing policy whereas China Unicom acts as a passive termination partner for call traffic. Redtone China will pay China Unicom solely based on call traffic termination by China Unicom at a prescribed rate (defined as traffic termination cost on the books of Redtone China). In this regard, Redtone China will recognize revenue when airtime is utilized by the consumer and the revenue recognized is the gross value of the call charges. Redtone China’s role for Business Collaboration with China Unicom is that of “Principal” as China Unicom is playing a passive role as the traffic termination partner while Redtone China is fully responsible for the entire management of the discounted call services

As this is a prepaid product, there is an expiration date for the product sold. If the airtime is not utilized by the expiration date, which is currently one year from the activation date, the product will be deemed to be expired and the revenue recognized at the time is the remaining gross value of the expired prepaid product.
 
2.
Discounted call services for corporate consumers is as follows:

Collaboration with CTT – the revenue recognized is the commission earned from distributing the discounted call services to corporate customers; and

Collaboration with other telecommunication providers –the revenue recognized is the commission earned from distributing the discounted call services to corporate customers.

3.
Reload services for prepaid mobile services – revenue recognized is the commission earned.

4.
Prepaid shopping-card services – revenue recognized is the commission earned.

 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company does not expect that the adoption of any recent accounting pronouncements will have any material impact on its financial statements.

Revenues. The discontinued operation generated marginal revenue of $3 in the nine months of the fiscal year ending May 31, 2015, representing almost 100% decrease as compared with the preceding year’s corresponding quarters. The decrease was mainly due to the cessation business of the company during the period.

Other income and gains.  During the first nine months of the fiscal year ending May 31, 2015, the discontinued operation recorded other income and gains of $164, a decrease of $74,731 or 579% compared with the preceding year’s corresponding period.  The decrease was due to cessation business of the company during the period.

Service cost. No service costs from operations for the first nine months of the fiscal year ending May 31, 2015 mainly due to cessation business of the company during the year.
 
 

Personnel expenses.  The personnel expenses have decreased by 22% or $27,115 to $93,580 for the first nine months of the fiscal year ending May 31, 2015. This is mainly due to lay-off manpower expenses incurred during the disposal of QBA.

Loss before provision for income taxes.   The net loss before provision for income taxes stood at $104,018 as compared to $229,892 over the preceding year’s corresponding quarter.


 
We are exposed to various market risks arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as foreign exchange fluctuations and interest rates, which could impact our results of operations and financial position. We do not currently engage in any hedging or other market risk management tools, and we do not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
 
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
 
Fluctuations in the rate of exchange between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies in Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”), Malaysian Ringgit (“RM”) and Hong Kong Dollar (“HK$”) could adversely affect our financial results. We expect that foreign currencies will continue to represent a similarly significant percentage of our sales in the future. Selling, marketing and administrative costs related to these sales are largely denominated in the same respective currency, thereby mitigating our transaction risk exposure. We therefore believe that the risk of a significant impact on our operating income from foreign currency fluctuations is not substantial. However, for sales not denominated in U.S. dollars, if there is an increase in the rate at which a foreign currency is exchanged for U.S. dollars, it will require more of the foreign currency to equal a specified amount of U.S. dollars than before the rate increase. In such cases and if we price our products in the foreign currency, we will receive less in U.S. dollars than we did before the rate increase went into effect. If we price our products in U.S. dollars and competitors price their products in local currency, an increase in the relative strength of the U.S. dollar could result in our price not being competitive in a market where business is transacted in the local currency. All of our sales and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are denominated in the RMB, RM and HK$. Our principal exchange rate risk therefore exists between the U.S. dollar and these currencies. Fluctuations from the beginning to the end of any given reporting period result in the re-measurement of our foreign currency-denominated receivables and payables, generating currency transaction gains or losses that impact our non-operating income/expense levels in the respective period and are reported in other (income) expense, net in our combined consolidated financial statements. We do not currently hedge our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. We may, however, hedge such exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the future.

Interest Rate Risk

Changes in interest rates may affect the interest paid (or earned) and therefore affect our cash flows and results of operations. However, we do not believe that this interest rate change risk is significant.
 
Inflation
 
Inflation has not had a material impact on the Company’s business in recent years.
 
Currency Exchange Fluctuations
 
The Company’s revenues and its expenses are denominated in RMB, RM and HK$. The value of these foreign currency-to-U.S. dollars may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in political and economic conditions. Since 1994, the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies, including U.S. dollars, has been based on rates set by the People’s Bank of China, which are set daily based on the previous day’s inter-bank foreign exchange market rates and current exchange rates on the world financial markets. Since 1994, the official exchange rate for the conversion of RMB to U.S. dollars had generally been stable and RMB had appreciated slightly against the U.S. dollar. However, on July 21, 2005, the Chinese government changed its policy of pegging the value of RMB to the U.S. dollar. Under the new policy, RMB may fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. Recently there has been increased political pressure on the Chinese government to decouple the RMB from the United States dollar. At the recent quarterly regular meeting of People’s Bank of China, its Currency Policy Committee affirmed the effects of the reform on RMB exchange rate. Since February 2006, the new currency rate system has been operated; the currency rate of RMB has become more flexible while basically maintaining stable and the expectation for a larger appreciation range is shrinking. The Company has never engaged in currency hedging operations and has no present intention to do so.
 
Concentration of Credit Risk
 
Credit risk represents the accounting loss that would be recognized at the reporting date if counterparties failed completely to perform as contracted. Concentrations of credit risk (whether on or off balance sheet) that arise from financial instruments exist for groups of customers or counterparties when they have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions as described below:
 
 
 
1. The Company’s business is characterized by new product and service development and evolving industry standards and regulations. Inherent in the Company’s business are various risks and uncertainties, including the impact from the volatility of the stock market, limited operating history, uncertain profitability and the ability to raise additional capital.

2. The Company’s revenue is deriving from China and Hong Kong. Changes in laws and regulations, or their interpretation, or the imposition of confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion, devaluations of currency or the nationalization or other expropriation of private enterprises could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
3. If the Company is unable to derive any revenues from these countries, it would have a significant, financially disruptive effect on the normal operations of the Company.
 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls were effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report.
 
(b) Changes in Internal Controls. There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the fiscal year ending May 31, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

(c) Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act, as amended. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, has inherent limitations. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, internal control over financial reporting determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Moreover, 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 the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2015. In making this assessment, management used the criteria established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (1992).

Based on the Company’s processes and assessment, as described above, management has concluded that, as of February 28, 2015, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.
 
 
 

 

The Company may from time to time be involved in various claims, lawsuits, and disputes with third parties, actions involving allegations of discrimination, or breach of contract actions incidental to the operation of its business. The Company is not currently involved in any such litigation that it believes could have a materially adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.


There have been no unregistered sales of equity for the quarter ended February 28, 2015.


There have been no material defaults for the quarter ended February 28, 2015.
