NOTE 2 – PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The unaudited interim financial statements of the Company and the Company’s subsidiaries (see Note 1) for the three months and six months ended November 30, 2011 and 2010 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 US 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 November 30, 2011, the results of its operations and cash flows for the three months and six months ended November 30, 2011.

The results of operations for the three months and six months ended November 30, 2011 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.

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.	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 November 30, 2011 and 2010, 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:

	November 30, 2011	May 31, 2011	November 30, 2010
Year end RMB : US$ exchange rate	0.1570	0.1542	0.1508
Average yearly RMB : US$ exchange rate	0.1576	0.1544	0.1505
Year end HK$ : US$ exchange rate	0.1283	0.1285	0.1291
Average yearly HK$ : US$ exchange rate	0.1285	0.1287	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

New accounting rules and disclosure requirements may significantly impact the financial statements. We believe that there is no new accounting guidance adopted but not yet effective that is relevant to the readers of our financial statements. However, there are numerous new proposals under development which, if and when enacted, may have a significant impact on our financial reporting.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These include statements about our expectations, beliefs, intentions or strategies for the future, which we indicate by words or phrases such as "anticipate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "will," "we believe," "REDtone believes," "management believes" and similar language. The forward-looking statements are based on the current expectations of RTAS and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those set forth in the discussion under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in this report. The actual results may differ materially from results anticipated in these forward-looking statements. We base the forward-looking statements on information currently available to us, and we assume no obligation to update them.

Investors are also advised to refer to the information in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, specifically Forms 10-KSB, 10-QSB and 8-K, in which we discuss in more detail various important factors that could cause actual results to differ from expected or historic results. It is not possible to foresee or identify all such factors. As such, investors should not consider any list of such factors to be an exhaustive statement of all risks and uncertainties or potentially inaccurate assumptions.

Except as otherwise indicated by the context, references in this Form 10-Q to “RTAS,” “we,” “us,” “our,” “the Registrant”, “our Company,” or “the Company” are to REDtone Asia, Inc., a Nevada corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to (i) “BVI” are to British Virgin Islands; (ii) “PRC” and “China” are to the People’s Republic of China; (iii) “U.S. dollar,” “$” and “US$” are to United States dollars; (iv) “RMB” are to Yuan Renminbi of China; (v) “RM” are to Malaysian Ringgit; (vi) “Securities Act” are to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; and (vii) “Exchange Act” are to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Business Overview

We are principally involved in the business of offering discounted call services for end users and paperless reload services for prepaid mobile air-time reload for end users in Shanghai covering all three major telecommunication operators namely China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom. With the recent acquisition of QBA, the Company is also venturing into third party payment solutions for the e-commerce industry in China.

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 recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and upon utilisation of actual air-time traffic by users.

Pursuant to the reverse take-over of Redtone China, the majority of the Company's revenue is derived from consumer and corporate voice services. The majority of the Company call services are for the consumer market which is prepaid in nature and hence there are no bad debts. For the corporate market segment, credit background checks for new customers are conducted to reduce bad debts.

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.

Net (loss)/income	$	39,695		$	462,308		(422,613	)		-91	%

Revenues

The Company generated revenue of US$4,186,589 in the first 6 months of the fiscal year ending May 31, 2012 representing a 60% increase as compared with the preceding year’s corresponding quarters. The increase is mainly due to new settlement basis with key partner China Tie Tong (“CTT”) in the consumer call business. With the new settlement basis, the Company is further charging server equipment rental cost and commission to CTT.

Other income and gains:

Other income comprises mainly of interest income from bank deposits. The increase in interest income of US$68,617 is mainly due to high cash reserve recorded for the current quarters and higher return from the investment of idle funds in short term financial planning products managed by commercial banks in China.

Service Costs

Service costs also increased by US$1404,456 or 120% in the first six months in corresponding to the new settlement basis with CTT whereas the Company will record corresponding increase in service cost.

Personnel costs

Personnel expenses totaled US$524,176, representing a 77% increase or US$227,966 as compared to the preceding year’s corresponding quarters. The increase is mainly due to inclusion of QBA operations for the current year quarters and increase to the Company’s existing staff.

Amortization and depreciation expenses

Amortization and depreciation expenses totaled US$385,356, representing an increase of 37% as compared to the preceding year’s corresponding quarters. The increase is mainly due to inclusion of QBA operations for the current quarters.

Administrative and other expenses

General and administrative expenses totaled US$614,092 representing an increase of 95% or US$299,563 as compared to the preceding year’s corresponding quarters. The increase is mainly due to inclusion of QBA operations for the current quarters.

Income before provision for income tax

Income before provision for income tax totaled US$160,777, representing a 72% decrease as compared to the preceding year’s corresponding quarters. This decrease is mainly due to an increase in service costs and higher operating expenses after the consolidation of QBA operations.

Provision for taxes

Provision for taxes made for the first six months was marginally higher by US$11,874 due to higher income tax provision for profit making subsidiaries could not be offsetted by losses of other subsidiaries.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash

Our cash balance at November 30, 2011, was US$3,207,182, representing a decrease of US$1,373,007 compared to our cash balance of US$4,580,189 at May 31, 2011.

Cash Flow

	Six months ended November 30,
	2011			2010			+/-		% Changes
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	943,122		$	715,250		227,872			32	%
Net cash used in investing activities	$	(2,392,613	)	$	(50,457	)	(2,342,156	)		4642	%
Net cash used in financing activities	$	(24,951	)	$	(58,104	)	33,153			-57	%
Net (decrease)/increase in cash and cash equivalents		(1,474,442	)		606,689		(2,081,131	)		-343	%

Cash inflows from operations during the six months ended November 30, 2011 amounted to US$943,122 as compared to US$715,250 in the same period of 2010. This is mainly due to an increase in revenue.

Our cash outflows in investing activities during the six months ended November 30, 2011 amounted to US$2,392,613 as compared to cash outflows of US$50,457 for the same period in 2010. The cash outflow in the investing activities for the first six months is primarily due to advances made to the holding company and the purchase of available-for-sale investments.

The Company has cash outflows of US$24,951 from financing activities for the period ended November 30, 2011 as compared to cash inflow of US$58,104 in same period last year. The cash flow changes for these two periods are mainly due to the repayment of amount due to related parties.

Working Capital

Our working capital recorded a surplus of US$478,119 as of November 30, 2011. This decrease in working capital is mainly due to increase in advances made to the holding company which is classified as non-current asset.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

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.

ITEM 4T. CONTROL AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

As of November 30, 2011, the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, our management performed, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of November 30, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, in that they provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

Changes in internal controls

There were no material changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could materially affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation. Disclosure controls and procedures are the Company’s controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonable likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Sarbanes - Oxley Act 404 compliance

The Company anticipates that it will be fully compliant with section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 by the required date for non-accelerated filers and it is in the process of reviewing its internal control systems in order to be compliant with Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act. However, at this time the Company makes no representation that its systems of internal control comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

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.
