SUBJECT TO COMPLETION

PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS DATED [           ], 2019

1,600,000 Ordinary Shares 

(minimum offering amount)

 

4,000,000 Ordinary Shares 

(maximum offering amount)

 

ATIF Holdings Limited

 

This is an initial public offering of ordinary shares of ATIF Holdings Limited. We are offering, on a best effort basis, our ordinary shares, $0.001 par value per share (“Ordinary Shares”).

Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our Ordinary Shares. We expect the initial public offering price will be $5.00 per Ordinary Share. We are in the process of applying to list our Ordinary Shares and have reserved the symbol “ATIF” for purposes of listing our Ordinary Shares on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “ATIF.”

Investing in our Ordinary Shares involves a high degree of risk, including the risk of losing your entire investment. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 10 to read about factors you should consider before buying our Ordinary Shares.

We are an “emerging growth company” as used in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, and as such, we have elected to take advantage of certain reduced public company reporting requirements for this prospectus and future filings. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Business” and “Prospectus Summary — Implications of Our Being an ‘Emerging Growth Company’” on pages 10 and 5, respectively.

 

Minimum offering amount Maximum offering amount
Per ordinary share Total Per ordinary share Total
Initial public offering price US $5.00 US $8,000,000.00 US $5.00 US $20,000,000.00
Underwriter’s discount and commissions US $0.32 US $520,000.00 US $0.31 US $1,250,000.00
Proceeds to our company before expenses(1)(2) US $4.68 US $7,480,000.00 US $4.69 US $18,750,000.00

 

 

(1)We have agreed to pay Boustead Securities LLC (the “Underwriter”) a fee equal to 6.5% of the first $10,000,000 of and 6% of any amount in excess thereof of, the gross proceeds of the offering. We have agreed to grant to the Underwriter warrants equal to 6.5% of the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares sold in the offering. See “Underwriting” in this prospectus for more information regarding our arrangements with the Underwriter.
(2)The total estimated expenses related to this offering are set forth in the section entitled “Discounts, Commissions and Expenses.”

The Underwriter is selling our Ordinary Shares in this offering on a best efforts basis. The Underwriter is not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of Ordinary Shares but will use its best efforts to sell the Ordinary Shares offered. One of the conditions to our obligation to sell any securities through the Underwriter is that, upon the closing of the offering, the Ordinary Shares would qualify for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

We do not intend to close this offering unless we sell at least the minimum number of Ordinary Shares, at the price per Ordinary Share set forth above, to result in sufficient proceeds to list our Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The offering may terminate on the earlier of  (i) any time after the minimum offering amount of our Ordinary Shares is raised, or (ii) 180 days from the date of this prospectus, or the expiration date. If we can successfully raise the minimum offering amount within the offering period, the proceeds from the offering will be released to us after deducting certain escrow fees. The proceeds from the sale of the Ordinary Shares in this offering will be payable to “FinTech Clearing, as Deposit Account Agent for the investors in ATIF Holdings Limited” and will be deposited in a separate (limited to funds received on behalf of us) non-interest bearing trust bank account until the minimum offering amount is raised. If we do not raise the minimum offering amount of $8,000,000, we will not conduct a closing of this offering and will return to investors all amounts previously deposited by them in escrow, without interest or deduction.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission nor any other regulatory body has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
