SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based largely on our expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. Actual results could differ materially from these forward-looking statements as a result of, among other factors, risks related to the large amount of our outstanding term loan; history of net losses and accumulated deficits; reliance on third parties to market, sell and distribute our products; future capital requirements; competition and technical advances; dependence on the oil services market for pipe and well cleaners; ability to protect our patents and proprietary rights; reliance on a small number of customers for a significant percentage of our revenues; and other risks. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking information contained in this Annual Report will in fact occur.
Item 1. Description of Business
General
RTG Ventures, Inc. is an OTC:QB listed company. The Company was organized under the laws of the State of Florida on September 29, 1998.
4
In 2006, the Company identified a business in digital technology, social media marketing and online global payment systems in the UK which lent itself to both organic growth and growth by acquisition. From that time, we have been evolving the Business Plan to maximize the opportunities and minimize the risks inherent in a challenging economic environment. All of these efforts were conducted under the contractual requirements of a Share Exchange Agreement. On March 20, 2007, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Agreement") with Atlantic Network Holdings Limited, New Media Television (Europe) Limited ("NMTV"), and Certain Outside Stockholders Listed on Exhibit A thereto to acquire all of the outstanding shares of NMTV. Atlantic Network Holdings Limited is a Guernsey company limited by shares and NMTV is a United Kingdom private company limited by shares. The transaction was subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions, including the filing by the Company of all reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act and the satisfactory completion of the audit of NMTV's financial statements for each of its past three fiscal years. The conditions of closing were not met by ANHL and the agreement was rescinded via 8-K/A on March 30, 2010.
RTG Ventures, Inc. entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), on March 31, 2010, with Cloud Channel Limited which was subsequently re-named as RTG Ventures (Europe) Limited in July 2010 (“RTG Ventures (Europe)”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of RTG Ventures (Europe) from its stockholders for consideration consisting of Convertible Preferred Shares of RTG Ventures, Inc. according to the derivative valuation methodologies outlined in the Share Exchange Agreements of Bitemark MC Limited and Stylar Limited, a/k/a Digital Clarity Limited. RTG Ventures (Europe) has been valued 12 months forward “notionally” one year hence. An 8-K/A was filed in September 2010 containing audited financials of the acquisition which completed the transactions. Shareholders will be able to convert the preferred shares into common stock using the average share price of the 30 days preceding September 3, 2011 which provides a share price of $0.016083. The methodology provides for a valuation of 4X net profit. All preferred stock will be held by RTGV's transfer agent for the 12 month period ending September 3, 2011, until conversion.
In August, 2009, RTGV signed a Letter of Intent with International Financial Systems Ltd. (IFS) a private company, to include iPayu, another dimension in the payment systems division of our Business Plan as described on our website, www.rtgventures.com. The Letter of Intent became a joint venture with RTG Ventures (Europe) Ltd in April, 2010.
Initially and for the first year of operations, RTG Ventures was organized as three divisions: Media Systems, Payment Systems and Solutions, each of which contained both wholly-owned companies and joint ventures with independent business plans, strategies and management. In addition to servicing their discrete markets, these companies all contributed to RTG Ventures' total product offering for media rights owners.
Subsequent to the close of the fiscal year following substantial investment and rapid change within the three main operating sectors of the business, the Company has had a structural review of its total product and services offering. The review was carried out by the Board of Directors. The result was to bring technology development being outsourced directly into the Company to steward on a daily basis and any activities which were not revenue generating in the near term were eliminated. It was unanimously agreed that due to the shift in the market, the company would adopt a lean approach that focused on the relationships and partnerships built up over the year in the music arena as well as build on the early stage development of its CloudChannel product and to re-align and address the new social and analytics needs of the market. Within this shift, it was agreed that a new, more appropriate name be given to the technology that reflected the change and would allow the building of brand value in its own right. That effort is underway.
Certain business lines were eliminated from the Business Plan immediately. In October, 2011 the joint venture with iPayu was mutually withdrawn and in December, 2011 the acquisition of Bitemark Ltd. was rescinded. The companies reverted to the same position each held prior to the contracts. The rescission of the Bitemark Ltd. share purchase agreement is included as an exhibit to this filing for the 2011 fiscal year even though it constitutes a subsequent event.
As a further result of the review, the Company has also agreed to strategically focus on developing the business of its wholly owned and revenue generating online marketing services company, Digital Clarity. With deep DNA in its operating market, blending the services of an experienced augmented to the technology offering would position the company in a strong, forward looking structure. Digital Clarity operates in the growing area of digital marketing that helps companies make the most the digital economy focusing on areas such as Search Engine Marketing (Google, Yahoo! & Bing), Social Media (Twitter, Facebook & LinkedIn) and Internet Strategy Planning including Design, Analytics and Mobile Marketing.

There is a current need for investment in building out the development team and creating a proprietary infrastructure to scale the new technology platform and to market to end user.
Employees
In fiscal 2011 the Company had six full-time employees.
Competition
There is strong competition in the digital marketing arena, though with the right level of investment and marketing, Digital Clarity has a confident outlook in using its experience to win new business in both local and international markets. RTG Ventures, Inc. has significant business relationships in place.

As a “smaller reporting company”, as defined by Rule 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide this information.
Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation
Readers are cautioned that certain statements contained herein are forward-looking statements and should be read in conjunction with our disclosures under the heading "Forward-Looking Statements" on page 1. These statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties. This discussion also should be read in conjunction with the notes to our consolidated financial statements contained in Item 8. "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data," of this Report.
Background
RTG Ventures, Inc. is an OTC:QB listed company. Initially through the fiscal year 2011, RTG Ventures had been organized as three divisions: Media Systems, Payment Systems and Solutions, each of which contained both wholly-owned companies and joint ventures with independent business plans, strategies and management. After substantial investment and rapid change within the three main operating sectors of the business, the Company has had a structural review of its total offering. The offering has been promoted by both market forces in the technology and rights management and mobile payments arenas, alongside the positive prospective growth of its acquired digital marketing company, Stylar Limited a/k/a Digital Clarity Ltd.
10
The review was carried out by the Board of Directors and it was unanimously agreed that due to the shift in the market, the company would adopt a lean approach that focused on the relationships and partnerships built up over the year in the music arena as well as build on the early stage development of its CloudChannel product, to re-align and address the new social and analytics needs of the market. Within this shift, it was agreed that a new, more appropriate name be given to the technology that reflected the change and would allow the building of brand value in its own right.
Payment Systems Division
The Company intended to roll-out a disruptive mobile payment platform built on a full banking system through a Joint Venture framework with UK’s International Financial Systems (IFS). Due to the growth in this sector by Internet, Media, Telecoms and Credit Card Companies, it was decided that the level of investment required indexed against the growth by competitive providers would leave the company exposed with a product that would struggle to progress in a highly competitive, well capitalized commercial environment. The joint venture between the RTG Ventures and International Financial Systems was mutually set aside in November 2011. Coincidently, the Payment Systems Division has been eliminated.
Media Systems Division
The Media Systems Division consisted of four separate yet complementary businesses. These were CloudChannel, ArchiveGo, FlowCaster and Audigist.
CloudChannel was the lead platform, with ArchiveGo and FlowCaster supporting the archive and streaming monetization element of the software platform. Audigist is the site established for independent artists and to which our partner Aderra has directed many artists who have no contractual relationships with record labels.
The software development of CloudChannel was outsourced to a company based in Ukraine. After a series of late development cycles and major changes in the need for a turnkey monetization platform, it was decided to bring the development of this technology under the stewardship of RTG Ventures, digital marketing company Digital Clarity, a trading name of Stylar Limited.
The Solutions Division
The Solution Division comprised of Stylar Limited a/k/a Digital Clarity and Bitemark Limited (BMC), including NUA. NUA was a non-material business combination with BMC in order to provide retail support to the merchandising effort.
Digital Clarity remains a viable business, a 100% subsidiary of RTG Ventures, Inc.
The share purchase agreement with Bitemark Limited has been rescinded by RTG’s Board of Directors and included as an exhibit to this 10-K.
The Company has also agreed to focus on developing the business of its wholly owned and revenue generating online marketing services company, Stylar Limited. Stylar limited has the trading brand, Digital Clarity. With a deep DNA in its operating market, blending the services of an experienced augmented to the technology offering would position the company in a strong, forward looking structure. The company has focused on its core strengths with an intent to develop its technology vision in conjuction with the growth and identification of revenue streams.
Digital Clarity is a trading brand of wholly owned RTG Ventures, Inc Company, Stylar Limited. Currently through its office in London, England the Company operates in the growing area of digital marketing which helps companies make the most the digital economy focusing on areas such as Search Engine Marketing (Google, Yahoo! & Bing), Social Media (Twitter, Facebook & LinkedIn) and Internet Strategy Planning including Design, Analytics and Mobile Marketing.
Digital Clarity is a multi-service digital marketing agency which specializes in creating effective strategies and campaigns for clients across a range of vertical markets.
11
Specializing in Search Engine Marketing, SEO Services, Social Media & Digital analytics, at present we work with both major brands and medium sized companies to help develop and leverage online brand presence and new customer acquisition.
Pay per Click Advertising (PPC)
Pay per click (PPC) (also called Cost per click) is an Internet advertising model used to direct traffic to websites, where advertisers pay the publisher (typically a website owner) when the ad is clicked. With search engines, advertisers typically bid on keyword phrases relevant to their target market. Content sites commonly charge a fixed price per click rather than use a bidding system. PPC "display" advertisements are shown on web sites with related content that have agreed to show ads.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the visibility of a website or a web page in search engines via the "natural" or un-paid ("organic" or "algorithmic") search results. In general, the earlier (or higher ranked on the search results page), and more frequently a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine's users. SEO may target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, video search, academic search, news search and industry-specific vertical search engines.
Analytics
The measurement, collection, analysis and reporting of internet data for purposes of understanding and optimizing web usage.
Email Marketing
Description: Email marketing is a form of direct marketing which uses email as a means of communicating commercial or fund-raising messages to an audience. In its broadest sense, every email sent to a potential or current customer could be considered email marketing.
SMS Marketing
Users of an SMS service can exchange text messages either from mobile to mobile or through a specialist internet website to a handset about anything from promotional offers, to general information regarding a product or service. Messages are usually sent using a short code system. Short codes are around 5 or 6 digits in length and work by asking customers to text a certain keyword to a specific code. E.g. ‘Text WIN to 84841’.
Web Design & Development
The process of planning and creating a website. Text, images, digital media and interactive elements are used by Digital Clarity’s designers to produce the page seen on the web browser. As a whole, the process of web design can include conceptualization, planning, producing, post-production, research, and advertising. The site itself can be divided into it pages. The site is navigated by using hyperlinks commonly these are blue and underlined but can be made to look like anything the client wishes.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We are not currently a party to, or otherwise involved with, any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, could have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
12
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation.
Significant and Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion of the financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of any contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Management regularly reviews its estimates and assumptions, which are based on historical factors and other factors that are believed to be relevant under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions, estimates or conditions.
Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. See “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional disclosure of the application of these and other accounting policies.
RTG Ventures, Inc. spent a full year focused on developing a product called Cloud Channel through outsourcing technology development. Long term financing was not available until the product was demonstratable and ready to launch commercially. At the same time Digital Clarity, Ltd. was generating revenues. After the Board’s strategic review post-2011 fiscal year, we have migrated the technology in-house and are concentrating on activities which will grow Digital Clarity, Ltd. organically.
We had $62,111 cash at August 31, 2011. Our working capital deficit amounted to approximately $1.66 million at August 31, 2011.
During fiscal 2011, we used cash in our operating activities amounting to approximately $525,000. Our cash used in operating activities was comprised of our net loss from continuing operations of approximately $1.48 million adjusted for the following:

|
·

Additionally, the following variations in operating assets and liabilities impacted our cash used in operating activity:

|
|

During fiscal 2011, we generated cash from investing activities of approximately $80,037, which consist of cash acquired in connection to acquisition of Digital Clarity, Ltd. and 6,075 for purchase of fixed assets.
During fiscal 2011, we generated cash from financing activities of approximately $505,000, which consist of the proceeds from the issuance of loans, convertible notes, and capital contributions of approximately $560,000 offset by principal repayments on such debt amounting to approximately $53,000.

|
Additionally, the following variations in operating assets and liabilities impacted our cash used in operating activity:

A decrease in our accounts payable and accrued liabilities expenses of approximately $250,000, resulting from an effort from management to lower expenses.
|
|
·
|
An increase in our accrued salaries of approximately $330,000, resulting from no salary payments made due to our financial condition.
|
|
·
|
An increase in due to related party of approximately $74,000, resulting from expenses paid by a related party on behalf of the Company in connection with an acquisition.
|
During fiscal 2011, we generated cash from financing activities of approximately $275,000, which consists of the proceeds from the issuance of loans, convertible notes, and capital contributions.
The Company may continue to face significant uncertainty relating to liquidity and intends to continue to search for additional sources of working capital, and to actively search for collaborative partners. Many of the existing contracts and initiatives require capital expenditure to move forward and management anticipates that delays will occur if long term funding is not identified.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Comparison of the Results for the Years Ended August 31, 2011 and 2010
The fiscal year ending August 31, 2011was RTG Venture, Inc.’s first year as an operating company with revenues. There remains a development aspect to digital technology which must be separated.
We currently generate revenue through our Pay-Per-Click Advertising, Search Engine Marketing, Search Engine Optimization Services, Web Design, Social Media & Digital analytics.
Revenue for the years ended August 31, 2011 and 2010 was approximately $540,000 and $0, respectively. In 2011 our primary sources of revenue are the Per-Click Advertising, and Search Engine Optimization Services. These primary sources amounted to greater than 75% of our revenues or approximately $425,000. Our secondary sources of revenue are our Web Design Fees, Social Media and SMS Marketing. These secondary sources amounted to approximately 20% of our revenues or approximately $105,000. In 2010, the Company had not yet acquired its revenue producing subsidiary resulting in $0 revenue for the year.
We recognize revenue upon the completion of our performance obligation, provided that: (1) evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) the arrangement fee is fixed and determinable; and (3) collection is reasonably assured.
Cost of sales for the years ended August 31, 2011 and 2010 was approximately $460,000 and $0, respectively. In 2011, 99% of cost of sales included advertising, salaries and media spend. This resulted in gross margins of approximately $81,000 for the fiscal year 2011. In 2010, the Company had not yet acquired its revenue producing subsidiary resulting in $0 in cost of sales and $0 in gross profit for the year.
General and administrative costs decreased 18% to approximately $360,000 from approximately $440,000 for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. This is primarily attributable to the streamlining of overhead in the parent company in the US resulting in a decrease in expenditures.
Payroll increased in 2011 by 56% to approximately $730,000 as a result of the Company’s addition of employees for running the day to day operations associated with RTG Ventures (Europe) Limited.
Professional fees (which include accounting/auditing, consulting and legal fees) decreased by approximately $90,000 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2011. This is primarily a result of a decrease in shares issued for services to consultants. This decrease is due to streamlining of overhead in the parent company in the US resulting in a decrease in expenditures.
Amortization and depreciation for the years ended August 31, 2011 and 2010 was approximately $125,000 and $0 respectively. The increase is due to the amortization of debt discount of approximately $123,000 in 2011.
14
Interest expense for the years ended August 31, 2011 and 2010 was approximately $106,000 and $80,000 respectively. An increase of approximately $25,000 or 32% which is the result of interest associated with the additional notes payable issued in 2011.
Write off of payables totaled approximately $219,000 for the year ended August 31, 2011. Approximately $135,000 relates to a non refundable advance provided to the Company in connection with a potential merger that was never finalized. As a result of the circumstances and based on a legal evaluation the payable from 2009 has been written off to other income.
Loss on settlement of debt totaled approximately $43,000 for the year ended August 31, 2011 and was due to an issuance of shares to pay a loan in excess of the loan totaling approximately $67,000 and a gain on a settlement of salary owed to an employee of approximately $23,500.
Loss on impairment of goodwill of approximately $157,000 for the year ended August 31, 2011 is based on the acquisition of Stylar Limited. The Company has impaired the full amount of the goodwill.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
RTG Ventures, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of RTG Ventures, Inc. and Subsidiaries, as of August 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years ended August 31, 2011 and 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of RTG Ventures, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of August 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations and cash flows for the years ended August 31, 2011 and 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that RTG Ventures, Inc. and Subsidiaries will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $8,935,000. The Company incurred a net loss for the year ended August 31, 2011 of approximately $1,477,000 and has negative working capital at August 31, 2011 of approximately $1,660,000. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

RTG VENTURES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN
Nature of Business and History of the Company
RTG Ventures, Inc. is an OTC:QB listed company. The Company was organized under the laws of the State of Florida on September 29, 1998
In 2006, the Company identified a business in digital technology, social media marketing and online global payment systems in the UK which lent itself to both organic growth and growth by acquisition. From that time, we have been evolving the Business Plan to maximize the opportunities and minimize the risks inherent in a challenging economic environment. All of these efforts were conducted under the contractual requirements of a Share Exchange Agreement. On March 20, 2007, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Agreement") with Atlantic Network Holdings Limited, New Media Television (Europe) Limited ("NMTV"), and Certain Outside Stockholders Listed on Exhibit A thereto to acquire all of the outstanding shares of NMTV. Atlantic Network Holdings Limited is a Guernsey company limited by shares and NMTV is a United Kingdom private company limited by shares. The transaction was subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions, including the filing by the Company of all reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act and the satisfactory completion of the audit of NMTV's financial statements for each of its past three fiscal years. The conditions of closing were not met by ANHL and the agreement was rescinded via 8-K/A on March 30, 2010.
On March 31, 2010, RTG Ventures, Inc. entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with Cloud Channel Limited which was subsequently re-named as RTG Ventures (Europe) Limited in July 2010 (“RTG Ventures (Europe)”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of RTG Ventures (Europe) from its stockholders for consideration consisting of Convertible Preferred Shares of RTG Ventures, Inc. according to the valuation methodologies outlined in the Share Exchange Agreements of RTG Ventures (Europe) subsidiaries Bitemark MC Limited and Stylar Limited, a/k/a Digital Clarity Limited. RTG Ventures (Europe) has been valued 12 months forward using forecasts submitted by them and agreed by the Company as notional valuations. An 8-K/A was filed in September 2010 containing audited financials which completed the transactions. Shareholders will be able to convert the preferred shares into common stock using the average share price of the 30 days preceding the conversion. The methodology provides for a valuation of 4X net profit for Stylar Limited. All preferred stock will be held by RTGV's transfer agent for the 12 month period ending September 3, 2011. See footnotes 13 and 14 for additional information.
In August, 2009, RTGV signed a Letter of Intent with International Financial Systems Ltd. (IFS) a private company, to include iPayu, another dimension in the payment systems division of our Business Plan as described on our website, www.rtgventures.com. The Letter of Intent became a joint venture with RTG Ventures (Europe) Ltd in April, 2010.
Initially and for the first year of operations, RTG Ventures was organized as three divisions: Media Systems, Payment Systems and Solutions, each of which contained both wholly-owned companies and joint ventures with independent business plans, strategies and management. In addition to servicing their discrete markets, these companies all contributed to RTG Ventures' total product offering for media rights owners.
Subsequent to the close of the fiscal year following substantial investment and rapid change within the three main operating sectors of the business, the Company has had a structural review of its total product and services offering. The review was carried out by the board of directors. The result was to bring technology development being outsourced directly into the Company to steward on a daily basis and any activities which were not revenue generating in the near term were eliminated. It was unanimously agreed that due to the shift in the market, the company would adopt a lean approach that focused on the relations built up over the year in the music arena as well as build on the early stage development of its CloudChannel product, to re-align and address the new social and analytics needs of the market. Within this shift, it was agreed that a new, more appropriate name be given to the technology that reflected the change and would allow the building of brand value in its own right. That effort is underway.
Certain business lines were eliminated from the Business Plan immediately. In October, 2011 the joint venture with iPayu was mutually withdrawn and in December, 2011 the acquisition of Bitemark was rescinded. The companies reverted to the same position each held prior to the contracts. The Corporate Resolution for the rescission of the Bitemark Share Purchase Agreement is included as an exhibit to this filing for 2011 eventhough it constitutes a subsequent event.
As a further result of the review, the Company has also agreed to strategically focus on developing the business of its wholly owned and revenue generating online marketing services company, Digital Clarity. With deep DNA in its operating market, blending the services of an experienced augmented to the technology offering would position the company in a strong, forward looking structure. Digital Clarity operates in the growing area of digital marketing that helps companies make the most the digital economy focusing on areas such as Search Engine Marketing (Google, Yahoo! & Bing), Social Media (Twitter, Facebook & LinkedIn) and Internet Strategy Planning including Design, Analytics and Mobile Marketing.

Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Company has incurred an accumulated deficit of approximately $8,935,000 and had negative working capital at August 31, 2011 of approximately $1,663,000.The Company has incurred net losses of approximately $1.5 million during the year ended August 31, 2011. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due, and to generate profitable operations in the future. Management plans to continue to provide for its capital requirements by seeking long term finance which may be in the form of additional equity securities and debt. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time and there are no assurances that if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute its business plan or generate positive operating results.
These matters, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
For all periods prior to August 31, 2010, the Company considered itself a development stage enterprise. During the year ended August 31, 2011, the Company has generated approximately $540,000 in revenue and made significant progress toward achieving its intended business plan in becoming a full-service digital media and monetization company with an integrated value proposition unique in the industry. As a result of the generation of significant revenue as well as a result of the Company development we no longer consider ourselves a development stage enterprise.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary RTG Ventures (Europe), Ltd. All significant inter-company transactions are eliminated.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash in banks. The Company considers cash equivalents to include all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Accounts receivable are presented net of allowance for doubtful accounts.
The Company has a policy of reserving for uncollectible accounts based on its best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt. Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the bad debt expense after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. At August 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company recognized $24,818 and $0 as allowance for doubtful accounts, respectfully.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets (primarily three to five years).
Revenue Recognition
The Company follows the guidance of ASC Topic 605, formerly, SAB 104 for revenue recognition. In general, the Company records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Revenues from services are recognized when the services are performed, evidence of an arrangement exists, the fee is fixed and determinable and collectability is probable.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes utilizing the liability method of accounting. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on differences between financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates in effect in years in which differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are expected to be realized.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Computation of Net Loss Per Share
The Company utilizes the guidance per FASB Codification “ASC 260 "Earnings Per Share". Basic earnings per share is calculated on the weighted effect of all common shares issued and outstanding, and is calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income for the period by the weighted-average number of common share equivalents during the period. Common stock equivalents arise from the issuance of stock options and warrants. Dilutive earnings per share is not shown as the effect is anti-dilutive. There were no common stock equivalents at August 31, 2011 for fiscal year ended August 31, 2011.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FASB ASC 820-Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or ASC 820, for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing generally accepted accounting principles that require the use of fair value measurements establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position or operating results, but did expand certain disclosures.
ASC 820 defines fair value 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. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:
Level 1:
|
Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
|
Level 2:
|
Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data
|
Level 3:
|
Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions.
|
The Company did not have any Level 2 or Level 3 assets or liabilities as of August 31, 2011, with the exception of its convertible notes payable. The carrying amounts of these liabilities at August 31, 2011 approximate their respective fair value based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rate.
Cash is considered to be highly liquid and easily tradable as of August 31, 2011 and therefore classified as Level 1 within our fair value hierarchy.
In addition, FASB ASC 825-10-25 Fair Value Option, or ASC 825-10-25, was effective for January 1, 2008. ASC 825-10-25 expands opportunities to use fair value measurements in financial reporting and permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The Company did not elect the fair value options for any of its qualifying financial instruments.
Stock Based Compensation
We account for the grant of stock options and restricted stock awards in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation.” ASC 718 requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity based compensation.
Customer Concentration
Two of the Company's customers accounted for approximately 27% and 16% respectively of its revenues during the year ending August 31, 2011. The Company did not have any sales in 2010.

Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries operating in foreign countries are translated into U.S. dollars using both the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date or historical rate, as applicable. Results of operations are translated using the average exchange rates prevailing throughout the year. The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on translating foreign currency assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars are included in a separate component of stockholders’ equity (accumulated other comprehensive loss), while gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in operations.
Business Combinations
In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 805, "Business Combinations" ("ASC 805") the Company records acquisitions under the purchase method of accounting, under which the acquisition purchase price is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their respective fair values. The Company utilizes management estimates and, in some instances, may require an independent third-party valuation firm to assist in determining the fair values of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and contingent consideration granted. Such estimates and valuations require us to make significant assumptions, including projections of future events and operating performance.
Impairment of Goodwill
Goodwill is tested for potential impairment at least annually, and whenever events or changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying value may be impaired. Judgment regarding the existence of impairment indicators are mainly based on operating results, changes in the manner of the use of the acquired assets or the Company’s overall business strategy, and market and economic trends. As of August 31, 2011 the Company determined that the goodwill of $156,908 should be fully impaired based on the non profitable position of the subsidiary. In addition, management has also taken into account the going concern issues of the parent company as an additional reason to impair the intangible.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
A variety of accounting standards have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date. We regularly review all new pronouncements that have been issued since the filing of our Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2010 to determine their impact, if any, on our financial statements. The Company does not expect the adoption of any of these standards to have a material impact once adopted.

NOTE 14 – RESCISSION OF SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT
Bitemark MC Limited.
On September 3, 2010, the Company acquired 100% of the common stock of Bitemark MC Ltd (“Bitemark”), according to the derivative valuation methodology outlined in the Share Exchange Agreement of Bitemark Limited (BMC).
In June 2011 Bitemark MC Ltd was liquidated and is no longer operating. The original Share Purchase Agreement was rescinded leaving both companies in the same position prior to the first agreement between the parties. Since this dissolution occurred during the fiscal period, management determined that a deconsolidation would be appropriate in this case and therefore, the original transaction recorded in September 2010 was reversed.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
There are not currently and have not been any disagreements between us and our accountants on any matter of accounting principles, practices or financial statement disclosure.
ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of August 31, 2011, our management, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our management concluded that, as of August 31, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that material information required to be disclosed 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, including ensuring that such material information is accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The Company is in a start-up mode, with its operations solely in the UK, therefore, one board member is charged with US interface to ensure all regulatory and control requirements are met.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and the Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2011. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework - Guidance for Smaller Public Companies (the COSO criteria). On September 3, 2010, the Company filed an 8-K acquiring two companies operating in the UK, as such, materially affected the systems in place. After one year of operations management is centralizing its activities in the US going forward. This will provide further assurance that the internal controls regarding financial systems are in a state of continuous improvement.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Our management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual report.

The following is a brief account of the business experience of each of our Directors and Executive Officers:
Neil Gray. Mr. Gray has served as Chairman and Executive Director of RTG Ventures, Inc. since April 1, 2010. Between 1999 and 2007, Gray was involved as an officer and equity participant of a privately held UK based Healthcare Group. Prior to leaving the group, a stable, conservative growth model was created to establish growth organically and by acquisition through operational knowledge and accurate prediction of cash flow/interest rates within the group’s debt/equity structure. The group’s interests were not restricted to the UK with alliances and interests developed into the European Union.
From 1994 to 1999, a “Hands On” approach to operational involvement and investment with personal financial incentives was garnered whist working in different cultural and geographical locations. These locations were Africa (South-West and West), South America (Equatorial), Spain (Mainland and The Canary Islands) and the Black Sea. The projects developed and entered into were engineering, textiles and import/export with the UK and EU.
18
The initial development of Gray’s understanding of business strategy was as part of a “think tank” team of individuals in a UK based insurance company between 1989 and 1994. The team’s role was to understand, develop and test their ideas against actuarial professionals. Gray sought out risk management knowledge and understanding of the global business of his employer during this time.
Gray’s formative years were spent as an employee of a UK based electrical engineering firm based in Northern England from 1985 to 1989 and in the engineering department of a British Coal deep mine colliery between 1979 and 1985.
Linda Perry. As of April 1, 2010 Ms. Perry serves as Executive Director and Chair Nomination/Compensation and Audit Committees. She had served as our President, Chief Executive Officer and a Director until March 31, 2010 (excepting the period from April 19, 2005 to April 24, 2006). She has had an extensive career in global and entrepreneurial businesses. Prior to that time, from 2001-2002, she was the senior advisor to the Board of Directors of The Balli Group, where her role was to integrate the acquisition of Klockner & Co. The acquisition resulted in the creation of the world's largest steel, multi-metal, distribution and trading company. Between 1999-2001, she was appointed a director and a member of the Executive Committee of Churchill Insurance Group, Plc., a division of the Credit Suisse Group. Ms. Perry was President of GWR Enterprises, Inc., from 1997-1999, focused on new business opportunities through private equity and special situation investments. She was a senior executive at ExxonMobil Corporation from 1983-1996, holding general management positions with global responsibility in finance, marketing and organization (described as corporate governance, management succession and executive compensation.) The latter role was under the aegis of the Board of Directors, entitled Compensation, Organization and Executive Development Committee/COED, of which she was a member. Ms. Perry holds an MBA from Harvard University. She has been a visiting lecturer/professor at IMD, Lausanne, Switzerland, INSEAD, Fontainebleau, France and the Stern School of Business at New York University throughout her career.
Reggie James. As of April 1, 2011, Mr. Reggie James has served as Senior Vice President of Marketing and Communications and Executive Director. Mr. James also is the Managing Director of Digital Clarity, Ltd.
Mr. James has been involved in the commercial element of the internet since its inception and has been instrumental in driving forward business models that are common place today.
Mr. James is founder of Digital Clarity, a leading Digital Advertising Agency and a wholly owned business of RTG Ventures, Inc.
The company helps major brands and medium sized companies take advantage of the digital economy focusing on areas such as Search Engine Marketing (Google, Yahoo! & Bing), Social Media (Twitter, Facebook & LinkedIn) and Internet Strategy Planning including Design, Analytics and Mobile Marketing.
Mr. James launched the European division of a VoIP technology company that became the first dot com to list of the Singapore Stock Exchange that was acquired by Spice Communications. In turn, Spice has been acquired by Idea Cellular, the 3rd largest mobile services operator in India.
Mr. James is also the co-founder of an internet analytics technology software house as well as shareholder in an AIM listed marketing services company. AIM is the London Stock Exchange’s international market for smaller growing companies.
Previously, Mr. James was involved with publishing groups VNU & Ziff-Davis where he launched titles such as Management Consultancy and IT Week. Prior to launching Digital Clarity, Mr. James was part of the global sales team at leading search company AltaVista where he managed global brands such as Compaq and Hewlett Packard (HP). AltaVista is now part of Yahoo! Inc.

Audit Committee
We have established an Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, for which a charter is being developed.

The audit committee will review the scope, timing and fees for the annual audit and the results of audit examinations performed by the internal auditors and independent public accountants, including their recommendations to improve the system of accounting and internal controls. The Audit Committee will at all times be composed exclusively of directors who are, in the opinion of our Board of Directors, free from any relationship which would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment as a committee member and who possess an understanding of financial statements and generally accepted accounting principles.
Compensation Committee
We have established a Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The compensation committee will review and approve our total remuneration, including compensation of executive officers. The Compensation Committee will also administer our stock option plans and recommend and approve grants of stock options under such plans.
