PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Business Overview
Hotgate Technology, Inc.
Hotgate Technology, Inc. (formerly RNS Software, Inc.) was incorporated on January 6, 2005 in Nevada as File4ward Software, Inc.
On May 16, 2008, the Company entered into an Agreement for Share Exchange with Hotgate Holding Limited, a British Virgin Island company (“HHL”) and the shareholders of HHL, namely Redtone Telecommunications Sdn Bhd, a Malaysian company, Pang Wee Tak, Alvin James and Michael Yang, individually. Such shareholders collectively own 100% of the shares of HHL. Upon completion of the Agreement for Share Exchange, the Company had a total of approximately 186,321,429 shares of its common stock issued and outstanding. In connection with these changes, the Company received a new trading symbol of HTGT on June 9, 2008.
Since the previous 4th quarter of the fiscal year ended May 31, 2009, the management has implemented a drastic downsizing arrangement for the Group as a measure to braise through the severe economic crisis and the expenses and resources has been kept down in line.
On September 30, 2009, the Board of Directors of the Company accepted the resignation of Ms. Li Li Wong as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, as was previously reported on Form 8-K filed October 2, 2009. Ms. Wong’s resignation is not due to any disagreements with the Company and she has no claims against the Company. On the same day, the Board of Directors of the Company appointed Ms. Yan Suan Sah to serve as the Company’s Chief Financial
3
Officer. Ms. Yan Suan Sah, age 33, is a registered Chartered Accountant with Malaysian Institute of Accountants, and also an associate member of Chartered Institute of Management Accountants UK. She brings with her over 10 years of work experience in finance, accounting and internal control.
On May 3, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company accepted the resignation of Mr Chuan Beng Wei as the interim Chief Executive Officer of the Company, which was reported on Form 8-K filed May 5, 2010. Ms Yan Suan Sah was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer on the same day.
REDtone China
REDtone China was incorporated as a private limited company under the name of REDtone Holding Pte Limited, in Hong Kong on May 26, 2005, under the Comp anies Ordinance of Hong Kong, It assumed its present name on August 9, 2005. The principal activity of REDtone China is that of investment holding, while its subsidiaries are principally involved in research and development of telecommunication and network technology, marketing, and distribution of discounted call services.
Given the potential for discounted call services in People’s Republic of China (“PRC”), REDtone China was incorporated by REDtone International Berhad, to replicate REDtone International Berhad’s Malaysian business model for discounted call services to the PRC in February 2006. Growth in discounted call services in PRC was encouraging because discounted call solutions provide a cheaper mode of voice services for individual users and corporate clients that make nationwide and international calls.
REDtone China, via its subsidiary, entered into a business collaboration agreement with a Shanghai Branch Company, China TieTong Telecommunications (“China TieTong”), to offer long distance domestic and international discounted call packages to mobile phone and fixed line subscribers in Shanghai. China TieTong has established a high-speed backbone optical transmission network of 52,000 kilometers over the years. This covers most of the cities in the PRC.
Under the business collaboration, China TieTong will provide network access for REDtone to deliver discounted calls, while REDtone China will provide the necessary support for sales and marketing, customer care, technical system, and other related matters for China TieTong’s consumer and corporate voice services in Shanghai. In addition, REDtone China is the sole distributor for China TieTong consumer and corporate voice services in Shanghai.
Since commencing its operations four years ago, REDtone China has grown rapidly. REDtone China’s infrastructure network capacity has grown to approximately 437E1, whereby each E1 allows average transmissions of 100,000,000 minutes per month. REDtone China is primarily offering its discounted call services to the consumer market. The consumer market discounted call is offered as a prepaid telecommunication service. This generates average cash of approximately RMB9 million per month. In addition, the current average gross revenue per month is standing at approximately RMB8 million. REDtone China has approximately one million active customers in consumer market segment. Regarding the postpaid telecommunication services for the corporate market, REDtone China is generating average gross revenue of approximately RMB1 million per month.
REDtone China proposes to venture into new businesses, which will predominately be expansions of REDtone China’s existing technology, operating platform, marketing channels, and customer base. REDtone China is seeking to expand its services in Shanghai, as well as other cities in the PRC,to the prepaid value reload market for 2G and 3G mobile users.
This new service will offer fast, convenient, and “paperless” reload facilities to all reload agencies in Shanghai. In addition, the reload services are easier to manage and more convenient compared to traditional paper-based and value-card printing, distribution, and control. This new service is expected to be launched by the third quarter of 2010.

Discounted Call Solutions for Consumers (“EMS”)
This is an innovative prepaid call service that offers an effective solution to help consumers to manage their telecommunications costs. This service was introduced in January 2006.

Reload for 2G and 3G Prepaid mobile
Using our existing customer base and technology platform, in August 2010, we expanded into prepaid value reload services for 2G and 3G Mobile users in Shanghai. The reload prepaid mobile will have the capacity to make telephone calls, use the internet, and download games. Under this service, REDtone China acts as the distributor for three major telecommunication service providers in Shanghai, specifically: China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Telecom. REDtone China offers the distinct advantage in providing this service in that we able to use our existing platform, technology, marketing channels, and customer base resulting in minimal start-up costs.
Our objectives in providing this service are as follow:
ü
Become one of the largest distributors for prepaid mobile reload services in Shanghai.
ü
Focus on offering a more comprehensive mobile reload solution to our customers. Our service is convenient and entirely paperless (via SMS/ IVR/Web).
ü
We anticipate prepaid model to generate a good cash flow reserve. We target a monthly top-up value of approximately RMB10 million for the year 2011 and all following years.
8
Currently, China Mobile and China Unicom have an estimated 10 million prepaid mobile users in Shanghai. With our existing technology and system, this service offers a fast, convenient, “paperless”, and automatic reload facility to all reload agencies in Shanghai. Our system is a major attraction to both telecommunication service providers and reload agencies as it makes the reload process easier to manage and more c onvenient as compared with traditional paper-based system which includes, value-card printing, distribution, and storage control.
Once this service model is establish in Shanghai, similar models will be replicated in other major cities in the PRC.

Customers and Markets
REDtone China has built a strong foundation, and has an intangible asset in its customer base, especially in Shanghai. We have more than 1,000,000 consumers and 1,600 major corporate customers. These reference si tes are helpful for us to market our services.
Currently, we conduct our business solely in Shanghai. We plan to expand our market share and presence in China in the next three years by replicating our successful business model currently being used in Shanghai.
We believe China will be our fastest growing market. We plan to invest significant resources to expand our market share and presence in China in the next three years

Sales and Marketing
;
REDtone China will continue its tradition of leveraging on capable partners to market its services and products in order to grow its business quickly. Innovative schemes are designed to attract and retain partners to achieve our sales goals. These partners would include distributors and agents. We believe that these channels are effective in bringing our services and products to customers because of their network of contacts and market knowledge.
The existing REDtone China’s sale partners have been with us since the start of our EMS business in 2006. We provide product training and customer care support, develop incentive system and motivation programme to our partners in order to enhance the quality of our service and to make our products relevant and attractive for the market.
Business Strategies for Future Growth
We have identified a number of initiatives to drive our future growth, as outlined below:
1.
Expand our Presence in China
Currently, REDtone China’s business is only in Shanghai. We are currently expanding and growing our business beyond Shanghai by replicating our successful proprietary telecommunications service business model in other provinces and countries.
REDtone’s expansion is executed with relatively low capital expenditure requirements as it fabricates its own equipment and software, and does not require investing in basic infrastructure thus allowing it to scale its business without incurring huge investment costs.
Based on statistics from May, 2010, published by the company website of China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom, there are over 780 million mobile phone subscribers in China. This will demonstrates the tremendous potential there is for growth.
2.
Synergistic expansion into related value added services - Prepaid Mobile reload
Riding on existing customer base and E-Purse technology platform, REDtone China extends its services into prepaid mobile reload for 2G and 3G Mobile users in Shanghai and other potential major cities. This service covers all three major telecommunication service providers in Shanghai, specifically: China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Telecom. The distinct advantage of having this service is we are able to use our current platform and technology, and its existing marketing channel and customer base with minimal start-up costs.
With an estimate of over 10 million prepaid mobile users in Shanghai for China Mobile and China Unicom, this service will offer fast and convenient “paperless” reload facilities to all reload agencies in Shanghai. The attraction to both telecommunication service providers as well as reload downstream resellers is that such service will help making the ir reload services easier to manage, and more convenient, when compared with traditional paper-based value-card printing, distribution, and storage control issues.
Once this service model established its footing in Shanghai, similar model can be replicated in other cities in China.
3.
Introduction of New Products and Services
We believe our continuous product innovation, understanding of our customers’ needs and good customer service will continue to bring us success. Hence, we are committed to research ing, designing and developing products and services that will continue to meet the demands of our customers. In addition to new products and updates, we also continue to review our revenue model by closely monitoring market trends and discussing trends with our clients and users.
10
Competition
The telecommunications industry in China is dominated by three state-run corporations, specifically: China Telecom Corporation L imited, China Mobile Communications Corporation, and China United Network Communications Group Co., Ltd. All of these corporations have 3G licenses and engage in fixed-line and mobile business in China.
There is potential competition from:
(i)
Direct Telecommunication Operators
The direct telecommunication operators are specifically: China Telecom Corporation Limited, China Mobile Communications Corporation, and China United Network Communications Group Co., Ltd. These companies may adopt a more aggressive pricing approach on their local and international calls. This would likely have a direct impact on our discounted call service s for the corporate segment. Likewise, if these competitors offer competitive rates for domestic, long distance, and international calls, this could offer a substitution to our EMS services and threaten our profits in this market.
(ii)
Other Discounted Service Providers
The discounted service providers such as Super E-Secretary operate domestic calls and the tool to compete is to provide discount on long distance calls. This company despite being a small player (less than 15% market share) in Shanghai discounted consumer call market may cause the price disruption when they compete on price aggressively.
(iii)
Other Mobile air-time reload service providers
Other players like Smartpay, Defeng and YiQiao offers similar mobile air-time reload services in Shanghai. They have entered into this reload services earlier than us but we command slightly better price advantage and better system support for paperless mobile reload in comparison with conventional paper-based reload model.
We believe our competitive advantage is derived from the following strengths:
(a)
Competitive Pricing
We, being one of the leading alternative voice service providers in Shanghai in terms of market share, could command the economies of scale to achieve lower minutes cost and lower operating cost per minute. Additional cost advantage is the low capital investment with self developed technology.
By having advantage of longer market presence, credibility and dominant market share, we can afford to price its products and services competitively while maintaining healthy gross margins.
(b)
Superior Technology and Competent Technical Support
We use superior call routing technology and techniques, such as its own invention, the Smart Call System, for large corporate customers. As the products are developed in-house, we know the products well and are competent in supporting customers. Customers can expect hassle-free implementation of the products and services.
(c)
Innovation
Innovation which is embodied in all the products and services is the key to the competitive advantage of our operations. In addition, innovation also helps us to truly serve the needs of the customers and to provide value-added services and products to the customers.
Close communication with our front line resellers will enable us to gather market intelligence and assist us in strategy formulation that is relevant to market needs
(d)
Value Added Services
For the telecommunications services provided by us, customers would also benefit from value added services in our convenient reload, customer care services and support, e-billings and others.
11
Regulatory Matters
We do not anticipate having to expend significant resources to comply with any governmental regulations applicable to our operations. We are subject to the laws and regulations which are generally applicable to business operations, such as business licensing requirements, income taxes and payroll taxes.
However, the telecommunications industry is highly regulated in China. The PRC’s laws and regulations will be modified and updated from time to time by the Chinese government. In addition, many of the PRC’s laws and regulations are subject to extensive interpretive power of governmental agencies and commissions, and there is substantial uncertainty regarding the future interpretation and application of these laws or regula tions.
Intellectual Property and Research and Development
The Company has no registered patents, trademarks or copyrights and no applications for patents, trademarks or copyrights are pending.
The Company utilized intellectual property pursuant to an agreement signed between REDtone Technology Sdn Bhd, Kerry Properties (Shanghai) Limited and REDtone Telecommunications (China) Ltd on August 11, 2005, in respect of the acquisition of the software with regards to the Customer billing, commission management, top-up management, traffic management, cardless system and gateway interface system suite.
The Company did not incur any research and development expenses in the fiscal year ended May 31, 2010.
Employees
As of August 31, 2010, we had forty-four (44) employees including: fourteen (14) in management, twenty-two (22) in research and development, technical support, and customer care, four (4) in sales and marketing, and four (4) in finance and administration. None of our employees are represented by labor unions or subject to collective bargaining agreements. We believe our employee relations are good and have had no employee related disputes recorded throughout the years.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Risks Related to Our Business
There are inherent operational and business risks which could potentially adversely affect our financial performance.
We are principally involved in the provision of telecommunications services and solutions and office communication solutions. As such, we are subject to certain operational and business risk factors inherent in the telecommunications industry. The operational risks include, inter alia: changes in conditions, such as deterioration in prevailing market conditions, changes in labor, an increase in labor and raw material costs, and maintaining a continued supply of electricity which is essential for the smooth operations of our telecommunications network(s). The business risks include, inter alia: network disruption in respect of the provision of the telecommunications services, and although we seek to mitigate these operational and business risks through, inter alia, efficient cost control, maintaining a diversified range of customers and suppliers, having good relationships with the customers, suppliers a nd employees of the Company and having contractual agreements for projects undertaken, there can be no assurance that any change to these factors will not have a material adverse effect on our business and financial performance.
Our industry is highly competitive, which could materially affect our business operations.
We are in the very competitive and rapidly changing telecommunications industry and its future success will depend on its ability to increase its market share in its markets. We are competing against well established telecommunications companies, which offer related services. These companies include, but are not limited to: China Telecom, China Unicom, and China Mobile. We are competing against these companies on several levels, including: pricing strategies, technological advances, advertising campaigns, strategic partnerships, and other initiatives. The increasing competition in this telecommunications industry has had, and is expected to continue to have, a significant impact on our business and financial performance. Competition is expected to increase with the emergence of new entrants into this market. We believe that the provision of telecommunications services complemented with our innovative will provide the Group with a competitive edge and differentiate us from its competitors.
12
Although we seek to mitigate these risks, there can be no assurance that our competitors will not develop technologies and products that are more effective than those developed by u s. We have a very clear strategy to replicate the business in other provinces in China.
We are currently dependent on attracting and maintaining key personnel.
The technology industry is growing and quickly changing, and successful management and operation of the business requires employing highly skilled, knowledgable employees. This includes employees who are working in both technological and non-technological fields. Our management recognizes and believes that our continuing success depends significantly on the abilities and continuing efforts of our existing Executive Directors, Chief Executive Officers, and key personnel. The labor market for skilled personnel in this field is highly competitive. We recognise that our success depends to a significant extent upon our ability to attract new personnel and retain our existing skilled personnel. We seek to mitigate this risk factor by offering our employees competitive salaries, remuneration, and benefits packages. There can be no assurance that these measures will be successful and that any change in our existing skilled personnel will not have a material effect on our business and operations.
There can be no assurance that there will not be any adverse changes to the terms of business collaboration agreement with China TieTong.
We currently have business collaboration agreements with China TieTong. These agreements provide for renewability and are subject to changes in the terms of the agreements on renewal. We will endeavour to seek and renew the agreement on terms favourable to us. There can be no assurance that any adverse changes to the terms of the agreement would not result in higher interconnection expenses. However, as we h ave emerged as a significant service provider, China TieTong may view this as a business opportunity to continue and further strengthen their working relationship with us.
Although individual members of our management team have experience as officers of publicly-traded companies, much of that experience came prior to the adoption of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance staff in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures. If we are unable to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act’s internal controls requirements, we may not be able to obtain the independent auditor certifications that Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires publicly-t raded companies to obtain.
If the market does not accept our other new products or upgrades to existing products that we launch from time to time, our operating results and financial condition would be materially adversely affected.
From time to time, we plan on launching new products and upgrades to existing products. Our future success with our next generation product offerings will depend on our ability to accurately determine the functionality and features required by our customers, as well as the ability to enhance our products and deliver them in a timely manner. We cannot predict the present and future size of the potential market for our next generation of products, and we may incur substantial costs to enhance and modify our products and services in order to meet the demands of this potential ma rket.
If we experience delays in product development or the introduction of new products or new versions of existing products, our business and sales will be negatively affected.
There can be no assurance that we will not experience delays in connection with our current product development or future development activities. If we are unable to develop and introduce new products, or enhancements to existing products in a timely manner in response to changing market conditions or customer requirements, it may materially and adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. Because we have limited resources, we must effectively manage and properly allocate and prioritize our product development efforts. There can be no assurance that these efforts will be s uccessful or, even if successful, that any resulting products will achieve customer acceptance.
13
We have only limited protection of our proprietary rights and technology.
Our success is heavily dependent upon our proprietary technology. We rely on a combination of the protections provided under applicable copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures and licensing arrangements, to establish and protect our proprietary rights. As part of our confidentiality procedures, we generally enter into non-disclosure agreements with our developers, distributors and marketers. Despite these precautions, it may be possible for unauthorized third parties to copy certain portions of our products or to reverse engineer or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary, to use our products or technology without authorization, or to develop similar technology independently. Moreover, the laws of some other countries do not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. Furthermore, we have no patents and existing copyright laws afford only limited protection. There can be no assurance that we will be able to protect our proprietary software against unauthorized third party copying or use, which could adversely affect our competitive position.
We have never paid cash dividends and are not likely to do so in the foreseeable future.
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business. We dos not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future but will review this policy as circumstances dictate.
Risks Associated With Doing Business in China and Asia
There are substantial risks associated with doing business in China and Asia, as set forth in the following risk factors.
Our operations and assets in China are subject to significant political and economic uncertainties.
Changes in PRC laws and regulations, their interpretation, or the imposition of confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion, imports and sources of supply, devaluations of currency or th e nationalization or other expropriation of private enterprises could have a material adverse effect on our business, results from operations and financial condition. Under current leadership of the PRC, the Chinese government has been pursuing economic reform policies that encourage private economic activity and greater economic decentralization. There is no assurance, however, that the Chinese government will continue to pursue these policies, or that it will not significantly alter these policies from time to time without notice.
Our business is largely subject to the uncertain legal environment in China and your legal protection could be limited.
The Chinese legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike common law systems, the Chinese legal system is a system in which precedents set in earlier legal cases are not generally used. The overall effect of leg islation enacted over the past 20 years has been to enhance the protections afforded to foreign invested enterprises in China. However, these laws, regulations and legal requirements are relatively recent and evolving rapidly, and their interpretation and enforcement involve various uncertainties. These uncertainties could limit the legal protections available to foreign investors, such as the right of foreign invested enterprises to hold business licenses and permits. In addition, all of our executive officers and directors are not residents of the U.S., and most of the assets of these persons are located outside the U.S. As a result, it could be difficult for investors to serve process on these individuals in the U.S., or to enforce a judgment obtained in the U.S. against the Company or any of these persons.
The Chinese governments exert substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities which could hav e an adverse effect on our ability to operate in China.
China has only recently permitted provincial and local economic autonomy and private economic activities. The Chinese governments continue to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the economy through regulation and state ownership. Our ability to operate may be harmed by changes in laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, import and export tariffs, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters. We believe our operations in China are in material compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements. However, the central or local governments of these jurisdictions may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations.
14
Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China. Additionally, regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in particular regions of China, and could require us to divest ourselves of any interest we then hold in Chinese properties or joint ventures.
Future inflation in China may inhibit our ability to conduct business in China.
In recent years, the Chinese economy has experienced periods of rapid expansion and high rates of inflation. These factors have led to the adoption by the Chinese government, from time to time, of various corrective measures designed to restrict the availability of credit or regulate growth and contain inflation. High inflation may in the future cause the Chinese government to impose controls on credit and/or prices, or to take other action, which could inhibit economic activity in China, and thereby harm the market for our products.
Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to receive and use our revenues effectively.
The substantial portion of our revenues will be settled in RMB, and any future restrictions on currency exchanges may limit our ability to use revenue generated in RMB to fund any future business activities outside China or to pay dividends or other payment s in U.S. dollars. Although the Chinese government introduced regulations in 1996 to allow greater convertibility of the RMB for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain, including the restriction that foreign-invested enterprises may only buy, sell or remit foreign currencies after providing valid commercial documents at banks in China authorized to conduct foreign exchange business. In addition, conversion of RMB for capital account items, including direct investment and loans, is subject to governmental approval in China, and companies are required to open and maintain separate foreign exchange accounts for capital account items. We cannot be certain that the Chinese regulatory authorities will not impose more stringent restrictions on the convertibility of the RMB.
The value of our securities will be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and RMB and other local currencies.
The value of our common stock will be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and RMB, and between those currencies and other currencies in which our sales may be denominated. For example, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars into RMB for our operational needs and should the RMB appreciate against the U.S. dollar at that time, our financial position, the business of the company, and the price of our common stock may be harmed. Conversely, if we decide to convert our RMB into U.S. dollars for the purpose of declaring dividends on our common stock or for other business purposes and the U.S. dollar appreciates against the RMB, then the U.S. dollar equivalent of our earnings from our subsidiaries in China would be reduced.
Risks Relating to our Common Stock
Our stock price may be volatile. The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:
●
changes in our industry;
●
competitive pricing pressures;
●
our ability to obtain working capital financing;
●
additions or departures of key personnel;
●
limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negative pricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;
●
sales of our common stock;
●
our ability to execute our business plan;
●
operating results that fall below expectations;
15
●
loss of any strategic relationship;
●
regulatory developments;
●
economic and other external factors; and
●
period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results.
In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
We may not pay dividends in the future. Any return on investment may be limited to the value of our common stock.
We do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends on our common stock will depend on earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors affecting us at such time as our board of directors may consider relevant. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates.
There is currently no liquid trading market for our common stock and we cannot ensure that one will ever develop or be sustained.
To date there has not been a liquid trading market for our common stock. We cannot predict how liquid the market for our common stock might become. As soon as is practicable after becoming eligible, we anticipate applying for listing of our common stock on either the NYSE Amex Equities, The Nasdaq Capital Market or other national securities exchange, assuming that we can satisfy the initial listing standards for such exchange. We currently do not satisfy the initial listing standards for any of these exchanges, and cannot ensure that we will be able to satisfy such listing standards or that our common stock will be accepted for listing on any such exchange. Should we fail to satisfy the initial listing standards of such exchanges, or our common stock is otherwise rejected for listing and remains quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or is suspended from the OTC Bulletin Bo ard, the trading price of our common stock could suffer and the trading market for our common stock may be less liquid and our common stock price may be subject to increased volatility.
Furthermore, for companies whose securities are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, it is more difficult (i) to obtain accurate quotations, (ii) to obtain coverage for significant news events because major wire services generally do not publish press releases about such companies and (iii) to obtain needed capital.
Our common stock is currently a “penny stock,” which may make it more difficult for our investors to sell their shares.
Our common stock is currently and may continue in the future to be subject to the “penny stock” rules adopted under Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules generally apply to companies whose common stock is not listed on The NASDAQ Stock Market or other national securities exchange and trades at less than $5.00 per share, other than companies that have had average revenue of at least $6,000,000 for the last three years or that have tangible net worth of at least $5,000,000 ($2,000,000 if the company has been operating for three or more years). These rules require, among other things, that brokers who trade penny stock to persons other than “established customers” complete certain documentation, make suitability inquiries of investors and provide investors with certain information concerning trading in the security, including a risk disclosure document and quote information under certain circumstances. Many brokers have decided not to trade penny stocks because of the requirements of the penny stock rules and, as a result, the number of broker-dealers willing to act as market makers in such securities is limited. If we remain subject to th e penny stock rules for any significant period, it could have an adverse effect on the market, if any, for our securities. Since our securities are subject to the penny stock rules, investors may find it more difficult to dispose of our securities.
16
Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline.
If our stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or upon the expiration of any statutory holding period under Rule 144, it could create a circumstance commonly referred to as an “overhang” and in anticipation of which the market price of our common stock could fall. The existence of an overhang, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make more difficult our ability to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate.
We may seek to raise additional funds, finance acquisitions, or develop strategic relationships by issuing capital stock.
We have financed our operations, and we expect to continue to finance our operations, acquisitions and develop strategic relationships, by issuing equity or debt securities, which could significantly reduce the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders. Furthermore, any newly issued securities could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our existing stock. Moreover, any issuances by us of equity securities may be at or below the prevailing market price of our stock and in any event may have a dilutive impact on your ownership interest, which could cause the market price of stock to decline.
Trends, risks and uncertainties.
We have sought to identify what we believe to be the most significant risks to our business, but we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized nor can we guarantee that we have identified all possible risks that might arise. Investors should carefully consider all such risk factors before making an investment decision with respect to our Common Stock.

NOTE 2 – PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the years ended May 31, 2010 and 2009, include the accounts of the Company, the Company’s subsidiaries and VIEs (see Note 1). The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in the United States of America, and all significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The functional currency for the majority of the Company’s operations is the Renminbi (“RMB”), while the reporting currency is the US Dollar.
28
NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Economic and Political Risk
The Company’s major operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the political, economic, and legal environments in PRC may influence the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The Company’s major operations in the PRC are subject to considerations and significant risks typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic, and legal environment. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.
(b) Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
(c) Accounts Receivable
Trade receivables are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable.
(d) Property, plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to the statement of operations as incurred, whereas significant renewals and improvements are capitalized. The cost and the related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the statement of operations.
The Company provides for depreciation of property, plant and equipment principally by use of the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. Plant and equipment are depreciated over the following estimated useful lives:
Computer and software
5 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
5 years
Motor vehicles 5 years
Leasehold improvements
5 years
Telecommunication equipment
10 years
The depreciation expense for the years ended May 31, 2010 and 2009 amounted to $425,651 and $420,138, respectively.
(e) Intangible Assets
Intangible assets primarily represent license and software and are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over the periods of benefit, in 20 years.
The Company performs regular review of identified intangible assets to determine if facts and circumstances indicate that the useful life is shorter than the original Company policies. If such facts and circumstances exist, the Company regularly assesses the recoverability of identified intangible assets by comparing the p rojected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their remaining lives against their respective carrying amounts. Impairments, if any, are based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets. If the useful life is shorter than originally estimated, we accelerate the rate of amortization and amortize the remaining carrying value over the new shorter useful life.
The amortization expenses for the years ended May 31, 2010 and 2009 amounted to $110,447 and $110,446, respectively.
(f) Available-for-sale investments
Investments in equity securities that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured are recognised in the balance sheet at cost less impairment losses.
29
(g) Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. It is reasonably possible that these assets could become impaired as a result of technology or other industry changes. Determination of recoverability of assets to be held and used is by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
There were no impairments of long-lived assets for the years ended May 31, 2010 and 2009.
(h) Income Tax
Income taxes are based on pre-tax financial accounting income. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts. The Company periodically assesses the need to establish valuation allowances against its deferred tax assets to the extent the Company no longer believes it is more likely than not that the tax assets will be fully utilized.
The Company evaluates a tax position to determine whether it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination, based upon the technical merits of the position. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is subject to a measurement assessment to determine the amount of benefit to recognize and the appropriate reserve to establish, if any. If a tax position does not meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, no benefit is recognized.
(i) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of the Company's cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, amount due from related companies, tax recoverable, other receivables and deposits, available-for-sale investment, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other payables, amount due to related companies and tax payables approximate fair value be cause of the short maturity of these items.
(j) Revenue Recognition
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
(k) 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 year. 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. &n bsp;As of May 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no dilutive securities outstanding.
(l) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
30
(m) Retirement Benefits
Hong Kong mandates companies to operate a mandatory provident fund scheme, which is available to all employees in Hong Kong. Both the Company and the employees are required to contribute 5% (subject to an aggregate amount of $256) per month of the employees’ relevant income. Contributions from the Company are 100% vested in the employees as soon as they are paid to the scheme. Contributions to the scheme are expensed in the statement of operations as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the Company and managed by independent professional fund managers. The Company provides no other retirement benefits to its employees as no payroll is recorded in Hong Kong.
Most of the Company’s employees are Chinese nationals and subject to Social Security Provident Fund and Hou sing Provident Fund of PRC. For Social Security Provident Fund, the Company is required to contribute 37% per month of the employees’ relevant income while 11% is deducted from employee income as employee’s contribution. For Housing Provident Fund, the Company and employee contributions are 7% each per month of the employees’ relevant income. Each year, minimum and maximum threshold will be set as contribution base and will be revised once a year based on social income level of the society.
Contributions from the Company and employee may not be 100% vested in the employees as the Social Security regime is subject to centralized planning and allocation scheme in China. Contributions to the scheme are expensed in the statement of operations as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the Compa ny and managed by government agencies.
The Company provides no other retirement benefits to its employees.
(n) Foreign Currency Translation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars (US$). 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:
| | | | |
| | | | |
| | May 31, 2010 | | May 31, 2009 |
| | | | |
Year end RMB : US$ exchange rate | | 0.1464 | | 0.1457 |
Average yearly RMB : US$ exchange rate | | 0.1459 | | 0.1458 |
Year end HK$ : US$ exchange rate | | 0.1282 | | 0.1282 |
Average yearly HK$ : US$ exchange rate | | 0.1282 | | 0.1282 |
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.
(o) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
ASC Topic “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification(TM) and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles – A Replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” became effective on September 15, 2009. This standard establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (the “Codification”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP. The Codification does not change current US GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative US GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. As of the effective date, all existing accounting standard documents were superseded and, accordingly, all subsequent public filings will reference the Codification as the sole source of authoritative literature.
31
In April 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) 2010-17, which amends ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition”. ASU 2010-17 provides guidance on applying the milestone method to milestone payments for achieving specified performance measure when those payments are related to uncertain future events limited to transactions involving research and development. Entities can make an accounting policy election to recognize arrangement consideration received for achieving specified performance measure during the period in which the milestones are achieved, provided certain criteria are met. ASU 2010-17 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-17 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2010, the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-11 (ASU 2010-11), “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives.” The amendments in this Update are effective for each reporting entity at the beginning of its first fiscal quarter beginning after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted at the beginning of each entity’s first fiscal quarter beginning after issuance of this Update. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-11 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In February 2010, the FASB Accounting Standards Update 2010-10 (ASU 2010-10), “Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments for Certain Investment Funds” which is effective as of the beginning of a reporting entit y’s first annual period that begins after November 15, 2009, and for interim periods within that first reporting period. Early application is not permitted. The Company’s adoption of provisions of ASU 2010-10 did not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09 “Subsequent Events (ASC Topic 855) “Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements” (“ASU No. 2010-09”) which requires an entity that is an SEC filer to evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued and removes the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose a date, in both issued and revised financial statements, through which the filer had evaluated subsequent events. The adoption did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU No. 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair value Measurements, which amends ASC 820 to add new requirements for disclosures about transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 and separate disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements relating to Level 3 measurements. The ASU also clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation and about inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The ASU is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect that th is ASU will have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
