1,000,000 Ordinary Shares

Fenbo Holdings Limited

This is an initial public offering of ordinary shares, US$0.0001 par value per share (“Ordinary Shares”) of Fenbo Holdings Limited (“FHL”, “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”). The Company is offering on a firm commitment basis 1,000,000 Ordinary Shares. The initial public offering price of the Ordinary Shares is US$5.00 per Ordinary Share.

Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our Ordinary Shares. We have been approved to list our Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “FEBO”.

FHL is a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with no material operations of its own. We conduct our operations in Hong Kong through our subsidiaries, Fenbo Industries Limited (“FIL”), and Able Industries Ltd. (“AIL”), both incorporated in Hong Kong, and in China through Fenbo Plastic Products Factory (Shenzhen) Ltd. (“FPPF”) incorporated in the PRC (“China” or the “PRC”) (collectively, the “Operating Subsidiaries”). We directly hold equity interests in our Operating Subsidiaries in China and Hong Kong, and we do not currently use a variable interest entity (“VIE”) structure.

Investors are cautioned that the Ordinary Shares they are buying are shares of the FHL, a Cayman Islands holding company, and not shares of the Operating Subsidiaries. Investors in this offering will not directly hold equity interests in the Operating Subsidiaries.

Since our business operations are conducted in China and Hong Kong through our Operating Subsidiaries, the Chinese government may exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business in China and Hong Kong and may intervene in or influence our Operating Subsidiaries’ operations at any time, which could result in a material change in their operations and/or the value of our Ordinary Shares.

China and PRC shall refer to the People’s Republic of China, including Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan; however, the only time such jurisdictions are not included in the definition of the PRC and China in this prospectus is when we make reference to the specific laws that have been adopted by the PRC.

We are an “Emerging Growth Company” and a “Foreign Private Issuer” under applicable U.S. federal securities laws and, as such, are eligible for reduced public company reporting requirements. Please see “Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company” and “Implications of Being a Foreign Private Issuer” on page 14 of this prospectus for more information.

Investing in our Ordinary Shares involves significant risks. The risks could result in a material change in the value of the securities we are registering for sale including the risk of losing your entire investment or could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 19 to read about factors you should consider before buying our Ordinary Shares.

We are subject to legal and operational risks associated with having certain of our Operating Subsidiaries’ operations in China, including risks related to the legal, political and economic policies of the Chinese government, the relations between China and Hong Kong and China and the United States, or Chinese or United States regulations, which risks could result in a material change in our operations and/or cause our Ordinary Shares to significantly decline in value or become worthless and affect our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors. Recently, the PRC government initiated a series of regulatory actions and made a number of public statements on the regulation of business operations in China with little advance notice, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, enhancing supervision over China-based companies listed overseas, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. We may be subject to these regulatory actions or statements. Although we have not engaged in any monopolistic behavior, our business does involve the collection of user data and may implicate cybersecurity reviews. We currently expect that these new regulations may have an impact on our Operating Subsidiaries or this offering.

On February 17, 2023, with the approval of the State Council, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (the “CSRC”) promulgated the Trial Administrative Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (“Trial Measures”), and five supporting guidelines, which came into effect on March 31, 2023. Pursuant to the Trial Measures, domestic companies that seek to offer or list securities overseas, both directly and indirectly, shall complete filing procedures with the CSRC pursuant to the requirements of the Trial Measures within three working days following their submission of initial public offerings or listing applications. If a domestic company fails to complete the required filing procedures or conceals any material fact or falsifies any major content in its filing documents, such domestic company may be subject to administrative penalties, such as an order to rectify, warnings and fines, and its controlling shareholders, actual controllers, the person directly in charge and other directly liable persons may also be subject to administrative penalties, such as warnings and fines.

As of the date of this prospectus, we have not received any formal inquiry, notice, warning, sanction, or objection from the CSRC with respect to the listing of our Ordinary Shares, and, in the opinion of our PRC legal counsel, Sundial Law Firm, the filing requirements under the Trial Measurements do not apply to the Company since: (i) the revenue, total profit, total assets or net assets of FPPF was less than 50% of that of the Company in total for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022; and (ii) the majority of senior management are non-PRC citizens and reside in Hong Kong.

However, there can be no assurance that the relevant PRC governmental authorities, including the CSRC, would reach the same conclusion as us, or that the CSRC or any other PRC governmental authorities would not promulgate new rules or new interpretation of current rules (with retrospective effect) to require us to obtain CSRC or other PRC governmental approvals for this offering. If we inadvertently concluded that such approvals are not required, our ability to offer or continue to offer our Ordinary Shares to investors could be significantly limited or completed hindered, which could cause the value of our Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or become worthless. We may also face sanctions by the CSRC, the CAC or other PRC regulatory agencies. These regulatory agencies may impose fines, penalties, limit our operations in China, or take other actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, as well as the trading price of our securities. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 19 for a discussion of these legal and operational risks and other information that should be considered before making a decision to purchase our Ordinary Shares.

Although Hong Kong is a Special Administrative Region and a dependency of the PRC, it has enacted its own laws pertaining to data security and anti-monopoly concerns. Hong Kong enacted the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (the “PDPO”) to ensure an adequate level of data protection to retain its status as an international trading center and to give effect to human rights treaty obligations. Moreover, Hong Kong has also enacted a similar piece of legislation regulating competition in the market (the “Competition Ordinance”). The Competition Ordinance prohibits: (i) anti-competitive agreements and concerted practices; and (ii) abuse of power with the object or effect of preventing, restricting or distorting competition in Hong Kong. If we were to be found in violation of either of these laws, our Hong Kong Operating Subsidiary’s operations may be restricted, and it may be required or elect to make changes to its operations in Hong Kong so as to be in accordance with the PDPO and/or the Competition Ordinance. Moreover, Hong Kong authorities may take other action against us, such as imposing taxes or other penalties, which could materially affect our financial results. Thus, our revenue and business operations in Hong Kong would be adversely affected.

In addition, the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “HFCAA”), which prohibits foreign companies from listing their securities on U.S. exchanges if the Company’s auditor has been unavailable for PCAOB inspection or investigation for three consecutive years, became law in December 2020. On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a determination (the “Determination Report”) that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and in Hong Kong because of positions taken by authorities in those jurisdictions, and the PCAOB included in the Determination Report a list of the accounting firms that are headquartered in the PRC or Hong Kong. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB announced that it has secured complete access to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate the previous 2021 Determination Report to the contrary. The SEC adopted final amendments to its rules to implement the HFCAA, which went into effect on January 20, 2022. As part of the SEC’s final rules, identified issuers will need to provide additional disclosures in subsequent filings that prove the issuer is not owned or controlled by a governmental authority in the foreign jurisdiction of the audit firm identified by the PCAOB in the Determination Report. The Determination Report includes our auditor, Centurion ZD CPA & Co., which is based in Hong Kong, is registered with the PCAOB, is subject to PCAOB inspection and was last inspected in May 2023. In the event that it is later determined that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely our auditor or our work papers because of a position taken by an authority in a foreign jurisdiction, then such lack of inspection could cause our securities to be delisted from the applicable stock exchange. The delisting of our Ordinary Shares, or the threat of their being delisted, may materially and adversely affect the value of your investment.

Furthermore, on June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “AHFCAA”), which was enacted on December 29, 2022, and amended the HFCAA to require the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three.

On August 26, 2022, the CSRC, the Ministry of Finance of the PRC (the “MOF”), and the PCAOB signed a Statement of Protocol (the “Protocol”) to allow the PCAOB to inspect and investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong, consistent with the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “HFCA Act”), and the PCAOB will be required to reassess its determinations by the end of 2022. Pursuant to the fact sheet with respect to the Protocol disclosed by the SEC, the PCAOB shall have independent discretion to select any issuer audits for inspection or investigation and has the unfettered ability to transfer information to the SEC.

On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB Board determined that the PCAOB was able to secure complete access to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate its previous determinations to the contrary. However, should PRC authorities obstruct or otherwise fail to facilitate the PCAOB’s access in the future, the PCAOB Board will consider the need to issue a new determination. On December 29, 2022, the AHFCAA was enacted, which amended the HFCA Act by decreasing the number of non-inspection years from three years to two, thus reducing the time period before our common stock may be prohibited from trading or delisted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event it is later determined that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely our auditor, then such lack of inspection could cause our securities to be delisted from the stock exchange. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Doing Business in China and Hong Kong — Our Ordinary Shares may be delisted under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act if the PCAOB is unable to inspect our auditors.”

As a holding company, we will rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our Hong Kong or PRC Operating Subsidiaries for our cash and financing requirements. If our Hong Kong and PRC Operating Subsidiaries incur debt on their own behalf in the future, the instruments governing such debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends to us. Moreover, to the extent cash is in our PRC Operating Subsidiary, there is a possibility that the funds may not be available to fund our operations or for other uses outside the PRC due to interventions or the imposition of restrictions and limitations by the PRC government on the ability to transfer cash. However, none of our Operating Subsidiaries have paid any dividends or other distributions to our holding company as of the date of this prospectus. In the future, cash proceeds raised from overseas financing activities, including this offering, may be transferred by us to our PRC or Hong Kong Operating Subsidiaries via capital contribution or shareholder loans, as the case may be. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not paid any dividends or made any distributions to any U.S. investors.

As of the date of this prospectus, there have been no cash flows between our Cayman Islands holding company and any of our Subsidiaries or Operating Subsidiaries. The transfer of funds among companies is subject to the Provisions of the Supreme People’s Court on Several Issues Concerning the Application of Law in the Trial of Private Lending Cases (2020 Revision), (the “Provisions on Private Lending Cases”), which was implemented on August 20, 2020, to regulate the financing activities between natural persons, legal persons, and unincorporated organizations. The Provisions on Private Lending Cases do not prohibit using cash generated from one subsidiary to fund another subsidiary’s operations. We have not been notified of any other restriction which could limit our PRC Operating Subsidiaries’ ability to transfer cash between subsidiaries. We intend to conduct regular review and management of all of our Subsidiaries’ and Operating Subsidiaries’ cash transfers and report to our Board of Directors.

Upon completion of this offering, our issued and outstanding shares will consist of 11,000,000 Ordinary Shares, assuming the underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment option to purchase additional Ordinary Shares, or 11,150,000 Ordinary Shares, assuming the over-allotment option is exercised in full. As of the date of this prospectus, Luxury Max Investments Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“LMIL”) owns 80% of our Ordinary Shares. We will be a controlled company as defined under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5615(c) because, immediately after the completion of this offering, Mr. Li Kin Shing, our controlling shareholder, and Executive Director, through his ownership of 100% of the outstanding shares of LMIL, will own 72.73% of our total issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, representing 72.73% of the total voting power, assuming that the underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment option, or 71.75% of our total issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, representing 71.75% of the total voting power, assuming that the over-allotment option is exercised in full.

Neither the United States 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.

⁽¹⁾ We have agreed to pay the underwriters a discount equal to 8% of the gross proceeds of the offering. This table does not include a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 1% of the gross proceeds of this offering payable to the underwriters. For a description of the other compensation to be received by the underwriters, see “Underwriting” beginning on page 114.

⁽²⁾ Excludes fees and expenses payable to the underwriters and other expenses of this offering. The total amount of underwriters’ expenses related to this offering is set forth in the section entitled “Expenses Related to This Offering” on page 109.

⁽³⁾ Assumes that the underwriters do not exercise any portion of their over-allotment option.

We have granted the underwriters an option, exercisable from time to time in whole or in part, to purchase up to 15% of the total number of Ordinary Shares to be offered by us pursuant to this offering (excluding Ordinary Shares subject to this option) at the initial public offering price, less underwriting discounts, and commissions, within 45 days from the date of this prospectus to cover over-allotments, if any. If the underwriters exercise the option in full, the total underwriting discounts payable will be US$460,000, and the total proceeds to us, before expenses, will be US$5,290,000.

If we complete this offering, net proceeds will be delivered to us on the closing date.

The underwriters expect to deliver the Ordinary Shares to the purchasers against payment on or Until December 1, 2023.

MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA

Certain market data and forecasts used throughout this prospectus were obtained from internal company surveys, market research, consultant surveys, reports of governmental and international agencies and industry publications and surveys. Industry publications and third-party research, surveys and reports generally indicate that their information has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable. This information involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates. Our estimates involve risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors, including those discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in this prospectus.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that relate to our current expectations and views of future events. These forward-looking statements are contained principally in the sections entitled “Prospectus Summary,” “Risk Factors,” “Use of Proceeds,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Industry Overview” and “Business.” These statements relate to events that involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, including those listed under “Risk Factors,” which may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

In some cases, these forward-looking statements can be identified by words or phrases such as “believe,” “plan,” “expect,” “intend,” “should,” “seek,” “estimate,” “will,” “aim” and “anticipate,” or other similar expressions, but these are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this document, including those regarding future financial position and results, business strategy, plans and objectives of management for future operations (including development plans and dividends) and statements on future industry growth are forward-looking statements. In addition, we and our representatives may from time to time make other oral or written statements that are forward-looking statements, including in our periodic reports that we will file with the SEC, other information sent to our shareholders and other written materials.

These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, some of which are beyond our control. In addition, these forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are not a guarantee of future performance. Actual outcomes may differ materially from the information contained in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including, without limitation, the risk factors set forth in “Risk Factors” and in this section of the prospectus.

Important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, regional, national, or global political, economic, business, competitive, market and regulatory conditions and the following:

The forward-looking statements made in this prospectus relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in this prospectus. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update nor revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. You should read this prospectus and the documents that we reference in this prospectus and have filed as exhibits to the registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part, completely and with the understanding that our actual future results or performance may be materially different from what we expect.

This prospectus contains certain data and information that we obtained from various research and other publications. Statistical data in these publications also include projections based on a number of assumptions. The markets for personal care electric appliances / hair styling products may not grow at the rate projected by such market data, or at all. Failure of our industry to grow at the projected rate may have a material and adverse effect on our business and the market price of our Ordinary Shares. Furthermore, if any one or more of the assumptions underlying the market data are later found to be incorrect, actual results may differ from the projections based on these assumptions. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. This summary may not contain all of the information that may be important to you, and we urge you to read this entire prospectus carefully, including the “Risk Factors,” “Business” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections and our consolidated financial statements and notes to those statements, included elsewhere in this prospectus, before deciding to invest in our Ordinary Shares. This prospectus includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” Unless otherwise stated, all references to “us,” “our,” “we,” the “Company,” and similar designations refer to Fenbo Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company limited by shares.

Overview and Corporate History

FHL, incorporated on September 30, 2022, under the laws of the Cayman Islands, is the holding company of our Operating Subsidiaries, AIL, FIL and FPPF. Through our Operating Subsidiaries, we represent over 30 years of experience producing personal care electric appliances (principally electrical hair styling products) and toy products to overseas markets. Our operating history began in 1993 when FIL was founded in Hong Kong by Mr. Li Kin Shing as a toy manufacturer and distributor. As the toy market deteriorated, he founded AIL in 2005 in Hong Kong, and shifted our operations to the manufacturing and sales of personal care electric appliances. Our manufacturing subsidiary, FPPF, located in Guangdong, PRC, was formed in the PRC on October 19, 2010, and is capable of producing over three million units per year. We currently act as both an original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) and original design manufacturer (“ODM”).

Since 2006, the Company has served as an OEM for Spectrum Brands, a global home essential company, and its sole customer, producing electrical hair styling products, under the “Remington” brand which Spectrum Brands has the right of the use of, and which are currently sold to Europe, United States and Latin America.

The use of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) to circumvent restrictions on foreign ownership is a longstanding industry practice and well known to officials and regulators in China; however, VIEs are not formally recognized under Chinese law. Recently, the government of China provided new guidance to and placed restrictions on China-based companies raising capital offshore, including through VIE structures. Although the China Securities Regulatory Commission published that they do not object to the use of VIE structures for Chinese companies to raise capital from non-Chinese investors, there is no guarantee that the Chinese government or a Chinese regulator will not otherwise interfere with the operation of VIE structures. We do not utilize a VIE structure.

Reorganization

Effective November 18, 2022, our Group completed a reorganization to consolidate its business operations in Hong Kong and the PRC into an offshore corporate holding structure to expand our manufacturing and sales operations and in anticipation of listing on a recognized securities market. The Company was incorporated on September 30, 2022. The Reorganization resulted in the corporate structure as set forth in the chart below. The primary reason for this offering and our listing on the Nasdaq Market is to allow us to raise funds to strengthen our market position and to further expand our market share. The net proceeds from the offering from the sales of the Ordinary Shares by us will be used for, among other things: (i) to expand our production capacity and capability; (ii) to strengthen our engineering, research, and development capability; (iii) to penetrate and further expand into new and existing geographical markets; and (iv) for general working capital. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Ordinary Shares by the Selling Shareholder. We believe that a public listing status will also enhance our corporate profile for the public and potential clients and investors. For details, please refer to the section headed “Use of Proceeds” on page 50 of this prospectus and “History and Corporate Structure” on page 66 of this prospectus.

The major steps of the Reorganization were as follows:

Following the Reorganization, on August 11, 2023, LMIL completed a private placement of an aggregate of 2,000,000 Ordinary Shares owned by it at a price of $2.50 per share to: Yuk Tong Lam (500,000 Ordinary Shares), Majestic Dragon Investment Co. Limited (500,000 Ordinary shares), Top Dragon International Limited (300,000 Ordinary Shares), Smart Tech Group Limited (300,000 Ordinary Shares), and Power Ocean Ventures Limited (400,000 Ordinary Shares).

Therefore, as a result of the Reorganization and the private placement, as of the date of this prospectus: (i) LMIL which is 100% owned by Mr. Li Kin Shing, owns 80% of our Company, (ii) our Company is a holding company and owns 100% of RLHL, (iii) RLHL owns 100% of FIL and AIL and (iv) FIL owns 100% of FPPF. We do not utilize a variable interest entity (“VIE”) structure. The following diagram illustrates our corporate structure as of the date of this prospectus and on completion of the Offering. For more detail on our corporate history please refer to “Our History and Corporate Structure” appearing on page 66 of this prospectus.

Pre-Offering

Post-Offering (assuming no exercise of the Underwriter’s over-allotment option)

Purchasers in this offering are buying shares of Fenbo Holdings Limited (“Company”), a Cayman Islands company, whereas all of our operations are conducted through our Operating Subsidiaries. At no time will the Company’s shareholders directly own shares of the Operating Subsidiaries.

We are and will be a “controlled company” as defined under the Nasdaq Stock Market Rules because, immediately after the completion of this offering, our Controlling Shareholder, will own 72.73% of our total issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, representing 72.73% of the total voting power, assuming that the underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment option.

Business of the Operating Subsidiaries

Our mission is to be an industry leader in providing personal care electric appliances.

Competitive Strengths

We believe the following competitive strengths differentiate us from our competitors:

Our Strategies

We intend to pursue the following strategies to further expand our business:

REGULATORY APPROVAL OF THE PRC

Permission Required from Hong Kong and Chinese Authorities

As of the date of this prospectus, neither we nor our Operating Subsidiaries are required to obtain any permission or approval from the Hong Kong authorities to operate our business or issue our Ordinary Shares to foreign investors. We are also not required to obtain permissions or approvals from any PRC authorities before listing in the U.S. and to issue our Ordinary Shares to foreign investors, including the CSRC or the CAC.

However, in the event that (i) the PRC government expanded the categories of industries and companies whose foreign securities offerings are subject to review by the CSRC or the CAC and that we are required to obtain such permissions or approvals; or (ii) we inadvertently concluded that relevant permissions or approvals were not required or that we did not receive or maintain relevant permissions or approvals required, any action taken by the PRC government could significantly limit or completely hinder the operations of our Operating Subsidiaries and our ability to offer or continue to offer Ordinary Shares to investors and could cause the value of our Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or become worthless.

RECENT REGULATORY DEVELOPMENT IN CHINA

Recently, the PRC government initiated a series of regulatory actions and statements to regulate business operations in certain areas in China with little advance notice, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, enhancing supervision over China-based companies listed overseas using a variable interest entity structure (“VIE”), adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding the efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement.

On July 6, 2021, the General Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued a document to crack down on illegal activities in the securities market and promote the high-quality development of the capital market, which, among other things, requires the relevant governmental authorities to strengthen cross-border oversight of law-enforcement and judicial cooperation, to enhance supervision over China-based companies listed overseas, and to establish and improve the system of extraterritorial application of the PRC securities laws. On December 24, 2021, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”), published the Provisions of the State Council on the Administration of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (the “Administration Provisions”), and the Administrative Measures for the Filing of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (the “Measures”), which are now open for public comment.

Furthermore, on July 10, 2021, the Cyberspace Administration of China (“CAC”) issued a revised draft of the Cybersecurity Review Measures (“Revised Draft”), which required that, among others, in addition to Critical Information Infrastructure Operator (“CIIO”), any Data Processing Operator (“DPO”) controlling personal information of no less than one million users that seeks to list in a foreign stock exchange should also be subject to cybersecurity review, and further listed the factors to be considered when assessing the national security risks of the relevant activities. On December 28, 2021, the CAC, the National Development and Reform Commission (“NDRC”), and several other administrations jointly issued the revised Measures for Cybersecurity Review, or the “Revised Review Measures”, which became effective and replaced the existing Measures for Cybersecurity Review on February 15, 2022. According to the Revised Review Measures, if an “online platform operator” that is in possession of personal data of more than one million users intends to list in a foreign country, it must apply for a cybersecurity review. Based on a set of Q&As published on the official website of the State Cipher Code Administration in connection with the issuance of the Revised Review Measures, an official of the said administration indicated that an online platform operator should apply for a cybersecurity review prior to the submission of its listing application with non-PRC securities regulators. Moreover, the CAC released the draft of the Regulations on Network Data Security Management in November 2021 for public consultation, which among other things, stipulates that a data processor listed overseas must conduct an annual data security review by itself or by engaging a data security service provider and submit the annual data security review report for a given year to the municipal cybersecurity department before January 31 of the following year. Given the recency of the issuance of the Revised Review Measures and their pending effectiveness, there is a general lack of guidance and substantial uncertainties exist with respect to their interpretation and implementation.

Given the nature of our operating subsidiaries’ business, we believe this risk is not significant. Our Operating Subsidiaries do not have any customers in China and are not CIIOs nor a DPO as defined in the Revised Review Measures. We do not currently expect the Revised Review Measures to have an impact on our Operating Subsidiaries’ business, operations or this offering as we do not believe that our Operating Subsidiaries are deemed to be operators of critical information infrastructure or data processors controlling personal information of no less than one million users, that are required to file for cybersecurity review before listing in the U.S. since (i) FIL and AIL are incorporated and operating in Hong Kong and the Revised Review Measures remain unclear whether they shall be applicable to a Hong Kong company; (ii) FIL’s subsidiary in mainland China is directly owned, does not use a VIE structure and its sole customer is; (iii) as of the date of this prospectus, none of the Operating Subsidiaries have collected any personal information of PRC individuals; and (iv) as of the date of this prospectus, none of the Operating Subsidiaries have been informed by any PRC governmental authority of any requirement that they file for a cybersecurity review. Therefore, we believe that our Operating Subsidiaries are not covered by the permission and requirements from the CSRC or the CAC.

Nevertheless, since these statements and regulatory actions are new, it is highly uncertain how soon the legislative or administrative regulation making bodies will respond and what existing or new laws or regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations will be modified or promulgated. If the Revised Review Measures are adopted into law in the future and if any of the Operating Subsidiaries are deemed an “operator of critical information infrastructure” or a “data processor” controlling personal information of no less than one million users, the listing of our Ordinary Shares on U.S. exchanges could be subject to CAC’s cybersecurity review. If we become subject to the CAC or any other governmental agency, we cannot assure you that we will be able to list our Ordinary Shares on U.S. exchanges, or continue to offer securities to investors, which would materially affect the interest of the investors and cause significantly depreciation of the price of our Ordinary Shares or render them worthless.

On February 17, 2023, with the approval of the State Council, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (the “CSRC”) promulgated the Trial Administrative Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (“Trial Measures”), and five supporting guidelines, which came into effect on March 31, 2023. Pursuant to the Trial Measures, domestic companies that seek to offer or list securities overseas, both directly and indirectly, shall complete filing procedures with the CSRC pursuant to the requirements of the Trial Measures within three working days following their submission of initial public offerings or listing applications. If a domestic company fails to complete the required filing procedures or conceals any material fact or falsifies any major content in its filing documents, such domestic company may be subject to administrative penalties, such as an order to rectify, warnings and fines, and its controlling shareholders, actual controllers, the person directly in charge and other directly liable persons may also be subject to administrative penalties, such as warnings and fines.

As of the date of this prospectus, (1) we and our PRC subsidiaries have received from PRC authorities all requisite licenses, permissions or approvals needed to engage in the businesses currently conducted in China, and no permission or approval has been denied, and (2) we have not received any formal inquiry, notice, warning, sanction, or objection from the CSRC with respect to the listing of our Ordinary Shares, and, in the opinion of our PRC legal counsel, Sundial Law Firm, the filing requirements under the Trial Measurements do not apply to the Company since: (i) the revenue, total profit, total assets or net assets of FPPF was less than 50% of that of the Company in total for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, and (ii) the majority of senior management are non-PRC citizens and reside in Hong Kong.

However, there can be no assurance that the relevant PRC governmental authorities, including the CSRC, would reach the same conclusion as us, or that the CSRC, CAC or any other PRC governmental authorities would not promulgate new rules or new interpretation of current rules (with retrospective effect) to require us to obtain CSRC, CAC, or other PRC governmental approvals for this offering. If we inadvertently concluded that such approvals are not required, our ability to offer or continue to offer our Ordinary Shares to investors could be significantly limited or completed hindered, which could cause the value of our Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or become worthless. We may also face sanctions by the CSRC, the CAC or other PRC regulatory agencies. These regulatory agencies may impose fines, penalties, limit our operations in China, or take other actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, as well as the trading price of our securities. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 19 for a discussion of these legal and operational risks and other information that should be considered before making a decision to purchase our Ordinary Shares.

HOLDING FOREIGN COMPANIES ACCOUNTABLE ACT (the “HFCA Act or the “HFCAA”)

The HFCA Act was enacted on December 18, 2020. The HFCA Act states if the SEC determines that a company has filed audit reports issued by a registered public accounting firm that has not been subject to inspection by the PCAOB for three consecutive years beginning in 2021, the SEC shall prohibit the company’s shares from being traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter trading market in the United States.

On March 24, 2021, the SEC adopted interim final rules relating to the implementation of certain disclosure and documentation requirements of the HFCA Act. A company will be required to comply with these rules if the SEC identifies it as having a “non-inspection” year under a process to be subsequently established by the SEC. The SEC is assessing how to implement other requirements of the HFCA Act, including the listing and trading prohibition requirements described above.

On June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed a bill, enacted on December 29, 2022, which amended the HFCAA to require the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three consecutive years.

On December 2, 2021, the SEC issued amendments to finalize rules implementing the submission and disclosure requirements in the HFCA Act. The rules apply to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in foreign jurisdictions (“Commission-Identified Issuers”). The final amendments require Commission-Identified Issuers to submit documentation to the SEC establishing that, if true, it is not owned or controlled by a governmental entity in the public accounting firm’s foreign jurisdiction. The amendments also require that a Commission-Identified Issuer that is a “foreign issuer,” as defined in Exchange Act Rule 3b-4, provide certain additional disclosures in its annual report for itself and any of its consolidated foreign operating entities. Further, the release provides notice regarding the procedures the SEC has established to identify issuers and to impose trading prohibitions on the securities of certain Commission-Identified Issuers, as required by the HFCA Act. The SEC will identify Commission-Identified Issuers for fiscal years beginning after December 18, 2020. A Commission-Identified Issuer will be required to comply with the submission and disclosure requirements in the annual report for each year in which it was identified. If a registrant is identified as a Commission-Identified Issuer based on its annual report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, the registrant will be required to comply with the submission or disclosure requirements in its annual report filing covering the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The final amendments became effective on January 10, 2022.

Our auditor, Centurion ZD CPA & Co. (“Centurion ZD”), the independent registered public accounting firm that issues the audit report included in this prospectus, as an auditor of companies that are traded publicly in the United States and a firm registered with the PCAOB, is subject to laws in the United States pursuant to which the PCAOB conducts regular inspections to assess Centurion ZD’s compliance with applicable professional standards. Centurion ZD is headquartered in Hong Kong and has been inspected by the PCAOB on a regular basis, with the last inspection in May 2023.

On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a report on its determinations that it was unable to inspect or investigate completely PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in Mainland China and in Hong Kong, because of positions taken by PRC authorities in those jurisdictions. The PCAOB made its determinations pursuant to PCAOB Rule 6100, which provides a framework for how the PCAOB fulfills its responsibilities under the HFCA Act. The report further listed in its Appendix A and Appendix B, Registered Public Accounting Firms Subject to the Mainland China Determination and Registered Public Accounting Firms Subject to the Hong Kong Determination, respectively. Our auditor is headquartered in Hong Kong, appears as part of the report and is listed under its Appendix B: Registered Public Accounting Firms Subject to the Hong Kong Determination.

On August 26, 2022, the PCAOB signed a Statement of Protocol (the “SOP”) Agreement with the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”) and China’s Ministry of Finance. The SOP, together with two protocol agreements governing inspections and investigations (together, the “SOP Agreements”), establish a specific, accountable framework to make possible complete inspections and investigations by the PCAOB of audit firms based in mainland China and Hong Kong, as required under U.S. law. Under the SOP Agreements the PCAOB shall have independent discretion to select any firms for inspection or investigation and has the unfettered ability to retain any information as needed. If the PCAOB continues to be prohibited from conducting complete inspections and investigations of PCAOB-registered public accounting firms in mainland China and Hong Kong, the PCAOB is likely to determine by the end of 2022 that positions taken by authorities in the PRC obstructed its ability to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms in mainland China and Hong Kong completely, then the companies audited by those registered public accounting firms would be subject to a trading prohibition on U.S. markets pursuant to the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Doing Business in Jurisdictions in which the Operating Subsidiaries Operate — Although the audit report included in this prospectus is prepared by U.S. auditors who are currently inspected by the PCAOB, there is no guarantee that future audit reports will be prepared by auditors inspected by the PCAOB and, as such, in the future, investors may be deprived of the benefits of such inspection. Furthermore, trading in our securities may be prohibited under the HFCA Act if the SEC subsequently determines our audit work is performed by auditors that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely, and as a result, U.S. national securities exchanges, such as the Nasdaq Capital Market, may determine to delist our securities. Furthermore, on June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, which was enacted on December 29, 2022, amending the HFCA Act and requiring the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three, thus reducing the time before our securities may be prohibited from trading or delisted.” on page 24. We cannot assure you whether Nasdaq or other regulatory authorities will apply additional or more stringent criteria to us. Such uncertainty could cause the market price of our Ordinary Shares to be materially and adversely affected.

Implications of Being a Holding Company - Transfers of Cash to and from Our Subsidiaries

As a holding company, we will rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our Operating Subsidiaries for our cash and financing requirements. We are permitted under the laws of the Cayman Islands and our memorandum and articles of association (as amended from time to time) to provide funding to our subsidiaries incorporated in China and Hong Kong, through loans or capital contributions. Our subsidiaries are permitted under the respective laws of China and Hong Kong to provide funding to us through dividends without restrictions on the amount of the funds, other than as limited by the amount of their distributable earnings. However, to the extent that cash is in our PRC or Hong Kong Operating Subsidiaries, there is a possibility that the funds may not be available to fund our operations or for other uses outside of the PRC or Hong Kong due to interventions or the imposition of restrictions and limitations by the PRC or the Hong Kong government on the ability to transfer cash. If any of our subsidiaries incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing such debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends to us. As of the date of this prospectus, our subsidiaries have not experienced any difficulties or limitations on their ability to transfer cash between each other; nor do they maintain cash management policies or procedures dictating the amount of such funding or how funds are transferred. None of our Operating Subsidiaries have paid any dividends, other distributions or transferred assets to our holding company as of the date of this prospectus. In the future, cash proceeds raised from overseas financing activities, including this offering, may be transferred by us to our PRC or Hong Kong Operating Subsidiaries via capital contribution or shareholder loans, as the case may be. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not made any transfers, paid any dividends, or made any distributions to U.S. investors. See “Risk Factors – Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure - We will rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our Operating Subsidiaries to fund our cash and financing requirements, and any limitation on the ability of our Operating subsidiaries to make payments to us could have a material adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business” on page 19.

The structure of cash flows within our organization, and a summary of the applicable regulations, is as follows:

1. Our equity structure is a direct holding structure, that is, the overseas entity that has been approved to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market in the United States is Fenbo Holdings Limited, an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands with limited liability. See “History and Corporate Structure” on page 66 of this prospectus for further details.

2. Within our direct holding structure, the cross-border transfer of funds within our corporate group is legal and compliant with the laws and regulations of the BVI, PRC, Hong Kong, and the Cayman Islands. After investors’ funds enter Fenbo Holdings Limited, the funds are first transferred to RLHL which then transfers them to AIL and to FIL which can then transfer the funds to and FPPF.

3. If the Company intends to distribute dividends, AIL will transfer the dividends to RLHL in accordance with the laws and regulations of Hong Kong. RLHL will then transfer the dividends to FHL in accordance with the laws and regulations of the BVI. FHL will then transfer the dividends to all of its shareholders respectively in proportion to the Shares they hold in accordance with the laws and regulations of the Cayman Islands, regardless of whether the shareholders are U.S. investors or investors in other countries or regions.

Summary Risk Factors and Challenges

Investing in our Ordinary Shares involves risks. The risks summarized below are qualified by reference to “Risk Factors” beginning on page 19 of this prospectus, which you should carefully consider before making a decision to purchase our Ordinary Shares. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations would likely be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our Ordinary Shares would likely decline, and you may lose part or all of your investment.

These risks include but are not limited to the following:

Risks Related to Our Business and Corporate Structure

Risks Related to Doing Business in the People’s Republic of China and Hong Kong

Risks Related to Our Operating Subsidiaries’ Business Operations

Risks Related to Our Operating Subsidiaries’ Industry

Risks Related to Our Securities and the Offering:

Implications of Being a “Controlled Company”

Controlled companies are exempt from the majority of independent director requirements. Controlled companies are subject to an exemption from Nasdaq standards requiring that the board of a listed company consist of a majority of independent directors within one year of the listing date.

Public Companies that qualify as a “Controlled Company” with securities listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, must comply with the exchange’s continued listing standards to maintain their listings. Nasdaq has adopted qualitative listing standards. Companies that do not comply with these corporate governance requirements may lose their listing status. Under the Nasdaq rules a “controlled company” is a company with more than 50% of its voting power held by a single person, entity, or group. Under the Nasdaq rules, a controlled company is exempt from certain corporate governance requirements including:

Controlled companies must still comply with the Nasdaq Capital Market’s other corporate governance standards. These include having an audit committee and the special meetings of independent or non-management directors.

Upon the completion of this offering, the outstanding shares of FHL will consist of 11,000,000 Ordinary Shares, assuming the underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment option to purchase additional Ordinary Shares, or 11,150,000 Ordinary Shares, assuming the over-allotment option is exercised in full. Immediately after the completion of this offering, our Controlling Shareholder will own 72.73% of our total issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, representing 72.73% of the total voting power, assuming that the underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment option, or 71.75% of our total issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares, representing 71.75% of the total voting power, assuming that the over-allotment option is exercised in full. As a result, we will be a “controlled company” as defined under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5615I because our Controlling Shareholder will hold more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors. Therefore, the controlling shareholder of FHL will be able to exert significant control over our management and affairs requiring shareholder approval, including approval of significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership may not be in the best interests of all of our shareholders. As a “controlled company,” we are permitted to elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements. We do not plan to rely on these exemptions, but we may elect to do so after we complete this offering.

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

As a company with less than $1.235 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”), enacted in April 2012, or the JOBS Act. An “emerging growth company” may take advantage of reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable to larger public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company, we:

We intend to take advantage of all of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions, including the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under §107 of the JOBS Act. Our election to use the phase-in periods may make it difficult to compare our financial statements to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the phase-in periods under §107 of the JOBS Act.

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year during which we have total annual gross revenues of at least US$1.235 billion; (ii) the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the completion of this offering; (iii) the date on which we have, during the preceding three-year period, issued more than US$1.0 billion in non-convertible debt; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our Ordinary Shares that are held by non-affiliates exceeds US$700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter. Once we cease to be an emerging growth company, we will not be entitled to the exemptions provided in the JOBS Act discussed above.

Implications of Being a Foreign Private Issuer

We are a “foreign private issuer,” within the meaning of the rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). As such, we are exempt from certain provisions applicable to United States domestic public companies. For example:

Furthermore, Nasdaq Rule 5615(a)(3) provides that a foreign private issuer, such as us, may rely on our home country corporate governance practices in lieu of certain of the rules in the Nasdaq Rule 5600 Series and Rule 5250(d), provided that we nevertheless comply with Nasdaq’s Notification of Noncompliance requirement (Rule 5625), the Voting Rights requirement (Rule 5640) and that we have an audit committee that satisfies Rule 5605(c)(3), consisting of committee members that meet the independence requirements of Rule 5605(c)(2)(A)(ii). If we rely on our home country corporate governance practices in lieu of certain of the rules of Nasdaq, our shareholders may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq. If we choose to do so, we may utilize these exemptions for as long as we continue to qualify as a foreign private issuer.

Impact of COVID-19

Since late December 2019, the outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus, later named COVID-19, spread rapidly throughout China and later to the rest of the world. On January 30, 2020, the International Health Regulations Emergency Committee of the World Health Organization declared the outbreak a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC),” and later on March 11, 2020, a global pandemic. The COVID-19 outbreak has led governments across the globe to impose a series of measures intended to contain its spread, including border closures, travel bans, quarantine measures, social distancing, and restrictions on business operations and large gatherings. While the spread of COVID-19 was substantially controlled in 2021, several variants of COVID-19 have emerged in different parts of the world and restrictions were re-imposed from time to time in certain cities to combat sporadic outbreaks. For instance, in early 2022, there was an uptick in cases in Shanghai, China, caused by the highly contagious Omicron variant and the city was under lockdown for over six weeks. The outbreak in Shanghai spread to many other provinces and cities in China, where the contract manufacturers we use to produce all of our products are located. Travel restrictions and other limitations were imposed in various places across China in response to these new cases. Given the rapidly expanding nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, we believe that COVID-19 has impacted and will likely continue to impact our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Subsequently, on December 9, 2022, China announced that China’s dynamic zero-COVID policy, which had been adhered to for nearly 3 years, has officially moved towards reopening, the travel restrictions of China and Hong Kong were lifted gradually.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused companies such as ours, as well as our business partners, to implement temporary adjustments to work schedules and travel plans, mandating employees to work from home and collaborate remotely. As a result, we may have experienced lower efficiency and productivity, internally and externally, which may adversely affect our service quality. Moreover, our business depends on our employees. If any of our employees has contracted or is suspected of having contracted COVID-19, these employees will be required to be quarantined and they could pass it to other of our employees, potentially resulting in severe disruption to our business.

Furthermore, our results of operations have been severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. During our fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, various adverse factors related to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as the tight supply and rising prices of raw materials, the rise of ocean freight charges and shortage of container supplies, posed temporary disruptions on our supply chain and thus led to the decrease in our Group’s gross profit margin to approximately 16.5% for FY2021 (FY2020: 18.9%). The Group’s gross profit margin for the year ended December 31, 2022, dropped to 15.7%. The Group’s gross profit margin for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased to 17.9% due to the diminishing impact of the COVID 19. Our Group will closely monitor the development of the COVID-19 pandemic and will continuously assess its potential impact on our supply chain. If there is any further disruption in our supply chain, we will response swiftly such as, within our capital constraints, increasing the raw material inventories in order to manage and mitigate such risk.

In addition, due to the instability of global financial markets and other economic and financial challenges brought about by COVID-19, our businesses and clients have been adversely affected by travel restrictions preventing travel from and to Hong Kong. More broadly, the COVID-19 pandemic threatens global economies and has caused significant market volatility and declines in general economic activities. This may have severely dampened the confidence in global markets and potential clients.

The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our business in the future will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions to contain COVID-19 or treat its impact, among others. If the disruptions posed by COVID-19 or other matters of global concern continue for an extended period of time, our ability to pursue our business objectives may be materially adversely affected and therefore, the effects it will have on our operations and financial results remain uncertain for 2023. If economic or market conditions in key global markets deteriorate, it may have a material adverse impact on our business and results of operations, and we may experience material adverse effects on our financial positions. In addition, our ability to raise equity and debt financing which may be adversely impacted by COVID-19 and other events, including as a result of increased market volatility, decreased market liquidity and third-party financing being unavailable on terms acceptable to us or at all. We will continue to closely monitor the situation throughout 2023 and beyond.

Any future impact on our results of operations will depend on, to a large extent, future developments and new information that may emerge regarding the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and the actions taken by government authorities and other entities to contain the spread or treat its impact, almost all of which are beyond our control. Given the general slowdown in economic conditions globally, volatility in the capital markets as well as the general negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the apparel solutions services market, we cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain the growth rate we have experienced or projected. We will continue to closely monitor the situation throughout 2023 and beyond.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our Ordinary Shares is highly speculative and involves a significant degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risks, as well as other information contained in this prospectus, before making an investment in our Company. The risks discussed below could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, ability to pay dividends and the trading price of our Ordinary Shares. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and ability to pay dividends, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to Our Business and Corporate Structure

We have suffered net losses, and we may not be able to sustain profitability.

Our income from operations decreased by HK$5.8 million from the income from operations of HK$3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, to the loss from operation of HK$2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decline of the financial performance from operations were primarily due to the combined effects of decrease of gross profit of HK$4.4 million and the increase of general and administrative expenses of HK$2.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2022. If we fail to generate sufficient revenues to operate profitably on a consistent basis, or if we are unable to fund our continuing losses, you could lose all or part of your investment.

Our income from operation was HK$0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The turnaround was primarily due to the gross profit margin increase from 15.7% for the year ended December 31, 2022 to 17.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

We will rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our Operating Subsidiaries to fund our cash and financing requirements, and any limitation on the ability of our Operating Subsidiaries to make payments to us could have a material adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business.

Our Company is a holding company, and we will rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our Operating Subsidiaries for our cash and financing requirements. Within our direct holding structure, the cross-border transfer of funds within our corporate group is legal and compliant with the laws and regulations of the BVI, PRC, Hong Kong, and the Cayman Islands. Our subsidiaries are permitted under the respective laws of China and Hong Kong to provide funding to us through dividends without restrictions on the amount of the funds, other than as limited by the amount of their distributable earnings. However, to the extent cash is in our Hong Kong Operating Subsidiaries, there is a possibility that the funds may not be available to fund our operations or for other uses outside of Hong Kong due to interventions or the imposition of restrictions and limitations by the Hong Kong government on the ability to transfer cash. If any of our subsidiaries incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing such debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends to us.

After investors’ funds enter FHL, the funds can be directly transferred to RLHL which will then directly transfer the funds to AIL and FIL, which then can then transfer the funds to FPPF. If the Company intends to distribute dividends, AIL will transfer the dividends to FIL in accordance with the laws and regulations of Hong Kong. FIL will then transfer the funds to RLHL which will then transfer the funds to FHL which will then distribute the dividends to all of its shareholders respectively in proportion to the Ordinary Shares they hold in accordance with the laws and regulations of the Cayman Islands, regardless of whether the shareholders are U.S. investors or investors in other countries or regions.

Under the laws of Cayman Islands and our Articles of Association, our Company is permitted to provide funding to its subsidiaries through loans or capital contributions, provided that such funding is in the best interest of our Company. Our Board of Directors has complete discretion as to whether to distribute dividends. In addition, our shareholders may by ordinary resolution declare a dividend, but no dividend may exceed the amount recommended by our Board of Directors. In either case, all dividends are subject to certain restrictions under Cayman Islands law, namely that the Company may only pay dividends out of profits or share premium and provided that under no circumstances may a dividend be paid if this would result in the Company being unable to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. The Cayman Islands does not impose a withholding tax on payments of dividends to shareholders.

Under the Companies Ordinance of Hong Kong, dividends may only be paid out of distributable profits (that is, accumulated realized profits less accumulated realized losses) or other distributable reserves. Dividends cannot be paid out of share capital. There are no restrictions or limitation under the laws of Hong Kong imposed on the conversion of HK dollars into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of Hong Kong, nor is there any restriction on foreign exchange to transfer cash between our Company and its subsidiaries, across borders and to U.S investors, nor on distributing earnings from our Operating Subsidiaries’ businesses to our Company and U.S. investors and amounts owed. Under the current practice of the Inland Revenue Department of Hong Kong, no tax is payable in Hong Kong in respect of dividends.

Under PRC laws, rules and regulations, our PRC subsidiaries are required to set aside at least 10% of their after-tax profits each year after making up for previous years’ accumulated losses, if any, to fund certain statutory reserves, until the aggregate amount of such fund reaches 50% of their registered capital. As of June 30, 2023, these restricted assets totaled approximately HK$2,806,000 (US$358,000). However, there can be no assurance that the PRC government will not intervene or impose restrictions on our ability to transfer or distribute cash within our organization or to foreign investors, which could result in an inability or prohibition on making transfers or distributions outside of China and may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Neither the Company nor any of its Operating Subsidiaries has paid dividends or made distributions to U.S. investors. No funds have been transferred by the holding companies to the Operating Subsidiaries for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and fiscal years ended December 31, 2022, or 2021, and through the date of this prospectus, to fund their business operations. In the future, any cash proceeds raised from overseas financing activities may be transferred by us to our Operating Subsidiaries via capital contribution or shareholder loans, as the case may be.

Moreover, to the extent that cash is in our PRC or Hong Kong Operating Subsidiaries, there is a possibility that the funds may not be available to fund our operations or for other uses outside of the PRC or Hong Kong due to interventions or the imposition of restrictions and limitations by the PRC or Hong Kong government on the ability to transfer cash. Any limitation on the ability of our Operating Subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other distributions to us could materially and adversely affect our financial position and the value of our Ordinary Shares.

Our corporate structure may involve unique risks for investors and could be disallowed by Chinese regulatory authorities. Any PRC regulations pertaining to our corporate structure, loans to and investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies may delay us from making loans or capital contributions to our Operating Subsidiaries, which could materially and adversely affect their liquidity and their ability to fund and expand their businesses, which could cause our Ordinary Shares to significantly decline in value or become worthless.

With regards to our corporate structure, any funds we may transfer to our PRC Operating Subsidiary, either as a loan or as an increase in registered capital, are subject to approval by or registration with relevant government authorities in China, regardless of the amount of the transfer. According to the relevant PRC regulations, capital contributions to our PRC Operating Subsidiary are subject to the submission of reports of changes through the enterprise registration system and registration with a local bank authorized by SAFE. In addition, any foreign loan procured by our PRC Operating Subsidiaries is required to be registered with SAFE, and such loan is required to be registered with the NPRC. We may not be able to complete such registrations or obtain necessary approvals on a timely basis with respect to future capital contributions or foreign loans by us to our PRC Operating Subsidiaries. If we fail to complete such registration or other procedures, our ability to maintain our corporate structure while capitalizing our PRC Operating Subsidiaries’ operations may be negatively affected, which could adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.

If we fail to implement and maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may be unable to accurately or timely report our results of operations or prevent fraud, and investor confidence and the market price of our Ordinary Shares may be materially and adversely affected.

Prior to this offering, we were a private company with limited accounting personnel. Furthermore, prior to this offering, our management had not performed an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, and our independent registered public accounting firm had not conducted an audit of our internal control over financial reporting. Effective internal control over financial reporting is necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and, together with adequate disclosure controls and procedures, is designed to prevent fraud.

Our failure to implement and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting could result in errors in our financial statements that could result in a restatement of our financial statements, cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations and cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which may result in volatility in and a decline in the market price of the Ordinary Shares.

Upon the completion of this offering, we will become a public company in the United States subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or Section 404, will require that we include a report of management on our internal control over financial reporting in our annual report on Form 20-F. In addition, if we cease to be an “emerging growth company,” as such term is defined in the JOBS Act, our independent registered public accounting firm must attest to and report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting on an annual basis. Our management may conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective. Moreover, even if our management concludes that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, our independent registered public accounting firm, after conducting its own independent testing, may issue a report that is qualified if it is not satisfied with our internal controls or the level at which our controls are documented, designed, operated, or reviewed, or if it interprets the relevant requirements differently from us. In addition, after we become a public company, our reporting obligations may place a burden on our management, operational and financial resources, and systems for the foreseeable future. We may be unable to timely complete our evaluation testing and any required remediation.

During the course of documenting and testing our internal control procedures, in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404, we may identify material weaknesses and deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting. The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or PCAOB, has defined a material weakness as “a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.”

In addition, if we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting, as these standards are modified, supplemented, or amended from time to time, we may not be able to conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404. Generally speaking, if we fail to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment, we could suffer material misstatements in our financial statements and fail to meet our reporting obligations, which would likely cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information. This could in turn limit our access to capital markets, harm our results of operations and lead to a decline in the trading price of our Ordinary Shares. Additionally, ineffective internal control over financial reporting could expose us to increased risk of fraud, misuse of corporate assets and legal actions under the United States securities laws and subject us to potential delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market to regulatory investigations and to civil or criminal sanctions.

Risks Related to Doing Business in the People’s Republic of China and Hong Kong

A downturn in the Hong Kong, China or global economy, or a change in economic and political policies of China, could materially and adversely affect our Operating Subsidiaries’ business and financial condition.

Our Operating Subsidiaries’ business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations may be influenced to a significant degree by political, economic, and social conditions in Hong Kong and China generally. The Chinese economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including the amount of government involvement, level of development, growth rate, control of foreign exchange and allocation of resources. While the Chinese economy has experienced significant growth over the past decades, growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. The Chinese government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures may benefit the overall Chinese economy but may have a negative effect on our PRC Operating Subsidiary.

Economic conditions in Hong Kong and China are sensitive to global economic conditions. Any prolonged slowdown in the global or Chinese economy may affect our current customers’ and potential customers’ businesses and have a negative impact on our Operating Subsidiaries’ business, results of operations and financial condition. Additionally, continued turbulence in the international markets may adversely affect our ability to access the capital markets to meet liquidity needs.

Changes in the policies, regulations and rules, and the enforcement of laws of the PRC government may be implemented quickly with little advance notice and could have a significant impact upon our Operating Subsidiaries’ ability to operate profitably in the PRC. The PRC legal system also embodies uncertainties, which could limit law enforcement availability. Therefore, our assertions and beliefs of the risk imposed by the PRC legal and regulatory system cannot be certain.

The PRC legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike common law systems, decided legal cases have little precedence. In 1979, the PRC government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and regulations governing economic matters in general. The overall effect of legislation over the past several decades has significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investment in China. Our Operating Subsidiaries are subject to PRC laws and regulations. However, these laws and regulations change frequently, and the interpretation and enforcement thereof involve uncertainties. For instance, we may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce the legal protections to which we are entitled to by law or contract. However, since PRC administrative and court authorities have significant discretion in interpreting statutory and contractual terms, it may be difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative court proceedings and the level of law enforcement that we would receive in more developed legal systems. Such uncertainties, including the inability of our Operating Subsidiaries to enforce their contracts, could affect our business and operation. In addition, confidentiality protections in China may not be as effective as in the United States or other countries. Accordingly, we cannot predict the effect of future developments in the PRC legal system, particularly with regard to our business, including the promulgation of new laws. This may include changes to existing laws or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, or the preemption of local regulations by national laws. These uncertainties could limit the availability of law enforcement.

The Chinese government may exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our Operating Subsidiaries’ business and may intervene in or influence their operations at any time, which could result in a material change in their operations and/or the value of our Ordinary Shares. Changes in the policies, regulations, rule, and the enforcement of laws of the Chinese government may also be implemented quickly with little advance notice. Therefore, our assertions and beliefs concerning the risk imposed by the PRC legal and regulatory system cannot be certain.

Our Company is a holding company, and we conduct our operation through our Operating Subsidiaries in Hong Kong and the PRC. The PRC government may choose to exercise significant oversight and discretion, and the regulations to which our Operating Subsidiaries are subject may change rapidly and with little notice to them or our shareholders. As a result, the application, interpretation and enforcement of new and existing laws and regulations in China are often uncertain. In addition, these laws and regulations may be interpreted and applied inconsistently by different agencies or authorities, and inconsistently with our Operating Subsidiaries’ current policies and practices. New laws, regulations and other government directives in China may also be costly to comply with, and such compliance or any associated inquiries or investigations or any other government actions may:

We are aware that, recently, the PRC government initiated a series of regulatory actions and statements to regulate business operations in certain areas in China with little advance notice, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, enhancing supervision over China-based companies listed overseas using a variable interest entity (“VIE”) structure, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews and expanding the efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. These regulatory actions and statements emphasize the need to strengthen the administration over illegal securities activities and the supervision of China-based companies seeking overseas listings. Additionally, companies are required to undergo a cybersecurity review if they hold large amounts of data related to issues of national security, economic development, or public interest before carrying out mergers, restructuring or splits that affect or may affect national security. These statements were recently issued, and their official guidance and interpretation remain unclear at this time. While we believe that our Operating Subsidiaries’ operations are not currently being affected, they may be subject to additional and stricter compliance requirements in the near term. Compliance with new regulatory requirements or any future implementation rules may present a range of new challenges which may create uncertainties and increase our Operating Subsidiaries’ cost of operations.

The Chinese government may intervene or influence our Operating Subsidiaries’ operations at any time and may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and foreign investment in China-based issuers, which may result in a material change in our Operating Subsidiaries’ operations and/or the value of our Ordinary Shares. Any legal or regulatory changes that restrict or otherwise unfavorably impact our Operating Subsidiaries’ ability to conduct their business could decrease demand for their services, reduce revenues, increase costs, require them to obtain more licenses, permits, approvals or certificates, or subject them to additional liabilities. To the extent that any new or more stringent measures are implemented, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected, and the value of our Ordinary Shares could decrease or become worthless.

Although we are based in Hong Kong and conduct operations in China and Hong, if we should become subject to the recent scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity involving U.S.-listed China-based companies, we may have to expend significant resources to investigate and/or defend the allegations, which could harm our Operating Subsidiaries’ business operations, this offering and our reputation and could result in a loss of your investment in our Ordinary Shares if such allegations cannot be addressed and resolved favorably.

During the last several years, U.S. listed public companies that have substantially all of their operations in China have been the subject of intense scrutiny by investors, financial commentators and regulatory agencies. Much of the scrutiny has centered on financial and accounting irregularities and mistakes, lack of effective internal controls over financial reporting and, in many cases, allegations of fraud. The Chinese government also may exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business in China and Hong Kong and may intervene or influence our Operating Subsidiaries’ operations at any time, which could result in a material change in their operations and/or the value of our Ordinary Shares. Moreover, as a result of this scrutiny, the publicly traded stock of many U.S.-listed Chinese companies that have been the subject of such scrutiny has sharply decreased in value. Many of these companies are now subject to shareholder lawsuits and/or SEC enforcement actions that are conducting internal and/or external investigations into the allegations.

Although we are based in Hong Kong, if we should become the subject of any such scrutiny, whether any allegations are true or not, we may have to expend significant resources to investigate such allegations and/or defend the Company. Such investigations or allegations would be costly and time-consuming, likely would distract our management from our normal business and could result in our reputation being harmed. The price of our Ordinary Shares could decline because of such allegations, even if the allegations are false.

There are political risks associated with conducting business in Hong Kong.

Any adverse economic, social and/or political conditions, material social unrest, strike, riot, civil disturbance, or disobedience, as well as significant natural disasters, may affect the market and adversely affect the business operations of the Company. Hong Kong is a special administrative region of the PRC, and the basic policies of the PRC regarding Hong Kong are reflected in the Basic Law, Hong Kong’s constitutional document, which provides Hong Kong with a high degree of autonomy and executive, legislative and independent judicial powers, including that of final adjudication under the principle of “one country, two systems.” However, there is no assurance that there will not be any changes in the economic, political, and legal environment in Hong Kong in the future. Since our operation is based in Hong Kong, any change of such political arrangements may pose immediate threat to the stability of the economy in Hong Kong, thereby directly and adversely affecting our results of operations and financial positions.

Under the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong is exclusively in charge of its internal affairs and external relations, while the government of the PRC is responsible for its foreign affairs and defense. As a separate customs territory, Hong Kong maintains and develops relations with foreign states and regions. Based on certain recent developments, including the Law of the People’s Republic of China on Safeguarding National Security in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region issued by the Standing Committee of the PRC National People’s Congress in June 2020, the U.S. State Department has indicated that the United States no longer considers Hong Kong to have significant autonomy from China and, at the time President Trump signed an executive order and Hong Kong Autonomy Act, or HKAA, to remove Hong Kong’s preferential trade status and to authorize the U.S. administration to impose blocking sanctions against individuals and entities who are determined to have materially contributed to the erosion of Hong Kong’s autonomy. The United States may impose the same tariffs and other trade restrictions on exports from Hong Kong that it places on goods from mainland China. These and other recent actions may represent an escalation in political and trade tensions involving the U.S, China, and Hong Kong, which could potentially harm our business.

Given the relatively small geographical size of Hong Kong, any of such incidents may have a widespread effect on our Operating Subsidiaries’ business operations, which could in turn adversely and materially affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. It is difficult to predict the full impact of the HKAA on Hong Kong and companies with operations in Hong Kong like us. Furthermore, legislative, or administrative actions in respect of China-U.S. relations could cause investor uncertainty for affected issuers, including us, and the market price of our Ordinary Shares could be adversely affected.

Changes in international trade policies, trade disputes, barriers to trade or the emergence of a trade war may dampen growth in Hong Kong, China, and other potential markets in which our Operating Subsidiaries’ will seek to expand.

Political events, international trade disputes and other business interruptions could harm or disrupt international commerce and the global economy and could have a material adverse effect on our Operating Subsidiaries and their customers both current and potential new customers. International trade disputes could result in tariffs and other protectionist measures, which may materially and adversely affect our Operating Subsidiaries’ business.

Tariffs could increase the cost of our products which could affect customers’ investment decisions. In addition, political uncertainty, such as the recent invasion by Russia in Ukraine, and surrounding international trade disputes and their potential of escalation to trade wars and global recession, could have a negative effect on customer confidence, which could materially and adversely affect our Operating Subsidiaries’ business. Our Operating Subsidiaries may also have access to fewer business opportunities, and their operations may be negatively impacted as a result. In addition, the current and future actions, or escalations by either the United States or China, including those sanctions imposed by the United States and other countries on Russia, and that affect trade relations may cause global economic turmoil and potentially have a negative impact on our Operating Subsidiaries’ markets, their business, or their results of operations, as well as the financial condition of their customers. We cannot provide any assurances as to whether such actions will occur or the form that they may take.

Although the audit report included in this prospectus is prepared by U.S. auditors who are currently inspected by the PCAOB, there is no guarantee that future audit reports will be prepared by auditors inspected by the PCAOB and, as such, in the future, investors may be deprived of the benefits of such inspection. Furthermore, trading in our securities may be prohibited under the HFCA Act if the SEC subsequently determines our audit work is performed by auditors that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely, and as a result, U.S. national securities exchanges, such as the Nasdaq Capital Market, may determine to delist our securities. Furthermore, on June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, which was enacted on December 29, 2022, amending the HFCA Act and requiring the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three, thus reducing the time before the securities may be prohibited from trading or delisted.

As an auditor of companies that are registered with the SEC and publicly traded in the United States and a firm registered with the PCAOB, our auditor is required under the laws of the United States to undergo regular inspections by the PCAOB to assess their compliance with the laws of the United States and professional standards. The PCAOB is currently unable to conduct inspections without the approval of the Chinese government authorities. Currently, our U.S. auditor is inspected by the PCAOB, and we have no operations in mainland China. However, if there is significant change to current political arrangements between mainland China and Hong Kong, companies operating in Hong Kong like us may face similar regulatory risks as those operated in PRC and we cannot assure you that our auditor’s work will continue to be able to be inspected by the PCAOB.

Inspections of other auditors conducted by the PCAOB outside mainland China have at times identified deficiencies in those auditors’ audit procedures and quality control procedures, which may be addressed as part of the inspection process to improve future audit quality. The lack of PCAOB inspections of audit work undertaken in mainland China prevents the PCAOB from regularly evaluating auditors’ audits and their quality control procedures. As a result, if there is any component of our auditor’s work papers become located in mainland China in the future, such work papers will not be subject to inspection by the PCAOB. As a result, investors would be deprived of such PCAOB inspections, which could result in limitations or restrictions to our access of the U.S. capital markets.

As part of a continued regulatory focus in the United States on access to audit and other information currently protected by national law, in particular mainland China’s, in June 2019, a bipartisan group of lawmakers introduced bills in both houses of the U.S. Congress which, if passed, would require the SEC to maintain a list of issuers for which PCAOB is not able to inspect or investigate the audit work performed by a foreign public accounting firm completely. The proposed Ensuring Quality Information and Transparency for Abroad-Based Listings on our Exchanges (“EQUITABLE”) Act prescribes increased disclosure requirements for these issuers and, beginning in 2025, the delisting from U.S. national securities exchanges, such as the Nasdaq Capital Market, of issuers included on the SEC’s list for three consecutive years. It is unclear if this proposed legislation will be enacted. Furthermore, there have been recent deliberations within the U.S. government regarding potentially limiting or restricting China-based companies from accessing U.S. capital markets.

On May 20, 2020, the U.S. Senate passed the HFCA Act, which includes requirements for the SEC to identify issuers whose audit work is performed by auditors that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a restriction imposed by a non-U.S. authority in the auditor’s local jurisdiction. The U.S. House of Representatives passed the HFCA Act on December 2, 2020, and the HFCA Act was signed into law on December 18, 2020. Additionally, in July 2020, the U.S. President’s Working Group on Financial Markets issued recommendations for actions that can be taken by the executive branch, the SEC, the PCAOB or other federal agencies and department with respect to Chinese companies listed on U.S. stock exchanges and their audit firms, in an effort to protect investors in the United States. In response, on November 23, 2020, the SEC issued guidance highlighting certain risks (and their implications to U.S. investors) associated with investments in China-based issuers and summarizing enhanced disclosures the SEC recommends China-based issuers make regarding such risks.

On March 24, 2021, the SEC adopted interim final rules relating to the implementation of certain disclosure and documentation requirements in the HFCA Act. On December 2, 2021, the SEC adopted amendments to finalize rules implementing the submission and disclosure requirements in the HFCA Act. The rules apply to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate. We will be required to comply with these rules if the SEC identifies us as having a “non-inspection” year under a process to be subsequently established by the SEC. The final amendments require any identified registrant to submit documentation to the SEC establishing that the registrant is not owned or controlled by a government entity in the public accounting firm’s foreign jurisdiction, and also require, among other things, disclosure in the registrant’s annual report regarding the audit arrangements of, and government influence on, such registrants. Under the HFCA Act, our securities may be prohibited from trading on Nasdaq or other U.S. stock exchanges if our auditor is not inspected by the PCAOB for three consecutive years, and this ultimately could result in our Ordinary Shares being delisted.

On June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, which was enacted on December 29, 2022, amending the HFCA Act and requiring the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three, thus reducing the time before our Ordinary Shares may be prohibited from trading or delisted.

On September 22, 2021, the PCAOB adopted a final rule implementing the HFCA Act, which provides a framework for the PCAOB to use when determining, as contemplated under the HFCA Act, whether the Board is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms located in a foreign jurisdiction because of a position taken by one or more authorities in that jurisdiction.

On November 5, 2021, the SEC approved the PCAOB’s Rule 6100, Board Determinations Under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act. Rule 6100 provides a framework for the PCAOB to use when determining, as contemplated under the HFCA Act, whether it is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms located in a foreign jurisdiction because of a position taken by one or more authorities in that jurisdiction.

On December 2, 2021, the SEC issued amendments to finalize rules implementing the submission and disclosure requirements in the HFCA Act. The rules apply to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in foreign jurisdictions (“Commission-Identified Issuers”). The final amendments require Commission-Identified Issuers to submit documentation to the SEC establishing that, if true, it is not owned or controlled by a governmental entity in the public accounting firm’s foreign jurisdiction. The amendments also require that a Commission-Identified Issuer that is a “foreign issuer,” as defined in Exchange Act Rule 3b-4, provide certain additional disclosures in its annual report for itself and any of its consolidated foreign operating entities. Further, the release provides notice regarding the procedures the SEC has established to identify issuers and to impose trading prohibitions on the securities of certain Commission-Identified Issuers, as required by the HFCA Act. The SEC will identify Commission-Identified Issuers for fiscal years beginning after December 18, 2020. A Commission-Identified Issuer will be required to comply with the submission and disclosure requirements in the annual report for each year in which it was identified. If a registrant is identified as a Commission-Identified Issuer based on its annual report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, the registrant will be required to comply with the submission or disclosure requirements in its annual report filing covering the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The final amendments became effective on January 10, 2022.

On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a report on its determinations that it was unable to inspect or investigate completely PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in Mainland China and in Hong Kong, because of positions taken by PRC authorities in those jurisdictions. The PCAOB made its determinations pursuant to PCAOB Rule 6100, which provides a framework for how the PCAOB fulfills its responsibilities under the HFCA Act. The report further listed in its Appendix A and Appendix B, Registered Public Accounting Firms Subject to the Mainland China Determination and Registered Public Accounting Firms Subject to the Hong Kong Determination, respectively. Our auditor, Centurion ZD is headquartered in Hong Kong, and appears as part of the report as Appendix B: Registered Public Accounting Firms Subject to the Hong Kong Determination.

On August 26, 2022, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (the “CSRC”), the Ministry of Finance of the PRC (the “MOF”), and the PCAOB signed a Statement of Protocol (the “Protocol”) to allow the PCAOB to inspect and investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong, consistent with the HFCA Act, and the PCAOB will be required to reassess its determinations by the end of 2022. Pursuant to the fact sheet with respect to the Protocol disclosed by the SEC, the PCAOB shall have independent discretion to select any issuer audits for inspection or investigation and has the unfettered ability to transfer information to the SEC.

On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB Board determined that the PCAOB was able to secure complete access to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate its previous determinations to the contrary. However, should PRC authorities obstruct or otherwise fail to facilitate the PCAOB’s access in the future, the PCAOB Board will consider the need to issue a new determination. On December 29, 2022, the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act was enacted, which amended the HFCA Act by decreasing the number of non-inspection years from three years to two, thus reducing the time period before our common stock may be prohibited from trading or delisted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event it is later determined that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely our auditor, then such lack of inspection could cause our securities to be delisted from the stock exchange.

The SEC is assessing how to implement other requirements of the HFCA Act, including the listing and trading prohibition requirements described above. Future developments in respect of increasing U.S. regulatory access to audit information are uncertain, as the legislative developments are subject to the legislative process and the regulatory developments are subject to the rule-making process and other administrative procedures.

While the CSRC, the SEC and the PCAOB have entered into the SOP Agreements regarding the inspection of PCAOB-registered accounting firms in mainland China and Hong Kong, there can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with requirements imposed by U.S. regulators if there is significant change to current political arrangements between mainland China and Hong Kong. Delisting of our Ordinary Shares would force holders of our Ordinary Shares to sell their Ordinary Shares. The market price of our Ordinary Shares could be adversely affected as a result of anticipated negative impacts of these executive or legislative actions upon, regardless of whether these executive or legislative actions are implemented and regardless of our actual operating performance.

The enactment of the Law of the PRC on Safeguarding National Security in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the “Hong Kong National Security Law”) could impact our Hong Kong subsidiaries, including two of our Operating Subsidiaries.

On June 30, 2020, the Standing Committee of the PRC National People’s Congress adopted the Hong Kong National Security Law. This law defines the duties and government bodies of the Hong Kong National Security Law for safeguarding national security and four categories of offenses — secession, subversion, terrorist activities and collusion with a foreign country or external elements to endanger national security — and their corresponding penalties. On July 14, 2020, the former U.S. President, Donald Trump, signed the Hong Kong Autonomy Act, or HKAA, into law, authorizing the U.S. administration to impose blocking sanctions against individuals and entities who are determined to have materially contributed to the erosion of Hong Kong’s autonomy. On August 7, 2020, the U.S. government imposed HKAA-authorized sanctions on eleven individuals, including HKSAR chief executive Carrie Lam. On October 14, 2020, the U.S. State Department submitted to relevant committees of Congress the report required under the HKAA, identifying persons materially contributing to “the failure of the Government of China to meet its obligations under the Joint Declaration or the Basic Law.” The HKAA further authorizes secondary sanctions, including the imposition of blocking sanctions, against foreign financial institutions that knowingly conduct a significant transaction with foreign persons sanctioned under this authority. The imposition of sanctions may directly affect foreign financial institutions as well as any third parties or customers dealing with any foreign financial institution that is targeted. It is difficult to predict the full impact of the Hong Kong National Security Law and HKAA on Hong Kong and companies located in Hong Kong. If any our Operating Subsidiaries are determined to be in violation of the Hong Kong National Security Law or the HKAA by competent authorities, our business operations, financial position, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Compliance with Hong Kong’s Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance and any such other existing or future data privacy related laws, regulations and governmental orders may entail significant expenses and could materially affect our business.

Our Operating Subsidiaries’ business and operations in Hong Kong are subject to data privacy related laws and regulations. In particular, the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (Chapter 486 of the laws of Hong Kong) (“PDPO”) imposes a duty on any data user who, either alone or jointly with other persons, controls the collection, holding, processing or use of any personal data which relates directly or indirectly to a living individual and can be used to identify that individual. Under the PDPO, data users shall take all practicable steps to protect the personal data they hold from any unauthorized or accidental access, processing, erasure, loss, or use. Once collected, such personal data should not be kept longer than necessary for the fulfilment of the purpose for which it is or is to be used and shall be erased if it is no longer required, unless erasure is prohibited by law or is not in the public interest.

The PDPO also confers on the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (“Privacy Commissioner”) power to conduct investigations and institute prosecutions. The data protection principles (collectively, the “DPP”), which are contained in Schedule 1 to the PDPO, outline how data users should collect, handle, and use personal data, complemented by other provisions imposing further compliance requirements. The collective objective of DPPs is to ensure that personal data is collected on a fully informed basis and in a fair manner, with due consideration towards minimizing the amount of personal data collected. Once collected, the personal data should be processed in a secure manner and should only be kept for as long as necessary for the fulfillment of the purposes of using the data. Use of the data should be limited to or related to the original collection purpose. Data subjects are given certain rights, inter alia: (a) the right to be informed by a data user whether the data user holds personal data of which the individual is the data subject; (b) if the data user holds such data, to be supplied with a copy of such data; and (c) the right to request correction of any data they consider to be inaccurate. The Commissioner may carry out criminal investigations and institute prosecution for certain offenses. Depending on the severity of the cases, the Privacy Commissioner will decide whether to prosecute or refer cases involving suspected commission to the Department of Justice of Hong Kong. Victims may also seek compensation by civil action from data users for damage caused by a contravention of the PDPO. The Commissioner may provide legal assistance to the aggrieved data subjects if the Commissioner deems fit to do so.

If our Operating Subsidiaries conducting business operations in Hong Kong have violated certain provisions of the PDPO, we could face significant civil penalties and/or criminal prosecution. Based on advice of counsel, we believe we have established the necessary protocols and data collection standards to ensure compliance with the PDPO.

We are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and are subject to its Data Protection Act, which regulated our collection and processing of personal data of our investors. A cyberattack, security breach or other unauthorized access or interruption to our information technology systems or those of any third-party service providers could harm our reputation and subject us to significant liability.

We collect, process, and maintain personal data about investors of the Company pursuant to the Data Protection Act, 2021 Revision, of the Cayman Islands, as amended from time to time as well as any regulations, codes of practice, or orders promulgated pursuant thereto (the “DPA”). We are committed to processing personal data in accordance with the DPA. In our use of personal data, we will be characterized under the DPA as a “data controller.” By virtue of your investment in the Company, we and certain of our third-party service providers may collect, record, store, transfer and otherwise process personal data by which individuals may be directly or indirectly identified. Your personal data will be processed fairly and for lawful purposes, including: (i) where the processing is necessary for us to perform a contract to which you are a party or for taking pre-contractual steps at your request; (ii) where the processing is necessary for compliance with any legal, tax, or regulatory obligations to which we are subject; or (iii) where the processing is for the purposes of legitimate interests pursued by us or by a service provider to whom the data are disclosed. As a data controller, we will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it. We anticipate that we will share your personal data with our third-party service providers for certain purposes. We may also share relevant personal data where it is lawful to do so and necessary to comply with our contractual obligations or your instructions, or where it is necessary or desirable to do so in connection with any regulatory reporting obligations. In exceptional circumstances, we will share your personal data with regulatory, prosecuting, and other governmental agencies or departments, and parties to litigation (whether pending or threatened), in any country or territory, including to any other person where we have a public or legal duty to do so (e.g., to assist with detecting and preventing fraud, tax evasion, and financial crime or compliance with a court order).

We are fully aware that cybersecurity threats, privacy breaches, insider threats or other incidents and malicious internet-based activity continue to increase, evolve in nature, and become more sophisticated. Information security risks for companies such as ours have significantly increased in recent years in part because of the proliferation of new technologies, the use of internet and telecommunications technologies to conduct financial transactions, and the increased sophistication and activities of organized crime, hackers, terrorists, and other external parties, as well as nation-state and nation-state-supported actors. Many companies that provide services similar to ours have also reported a significant increase in cyberattack activity since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic.

In addition, because we may utilize a third-party contractor to provide these services to us, including cloud, software, data center and other critical technology, to collect and maintain personal data on our shareholders, we rely heavily on the data security practices and policies adopted by these third-party service providers. Our ability to monitor our third-party service providers’ data security is limited. A vulnerability in our or our third-party service providers’ software or systems, a failure of our third-party service providers’ safeguards, policies or procedures, or a breach of a software or systems could result in the compromise of the confidentiality, integrity or availability of the data housed. We cannot guarantee that any similar incidents may not occur again and adversely affect our shareholders. We and our third-party service providers and partners may be unable to anticipate or prevent techniques used in the future to obtain unauthorized access or to sabotage systems and we cannot guarantee that applicable recovery systems, security protocols, network protection mechanisms and other procedures are or will be adequate to prevent network and service interruption, system failure or data loss. In addition, we may also become liable in the event our or our third-party service providers are subject to security breaches, privacy breaches or other cybersecurity threats. This could expose us to a risk of litigation, indemnity obligations and damages, cause us to incur significant liability and financial loss and be subject to regulatory scrutiny, investigations, proceedings and fines and penalties, and require us to expend significant capital and other resources to alleviate problems caused by any such cybersecurity attack or other security breach or incident and implement additional security measures.

We currently do not maintain cybersecurity insurance, and in the event that we were to seek to obtain such insurance coverage, it may not be available on acceptable terms or may not be available in sufficient amounts to cover one or more large claims in connection with cybersecurity liabilities. Insurers could also deny coverage as to any future claim.

We may become subject to a variety of PRC laws and other regulations regarding data security or securities offerings that are conducted overseas and/or other foreign investment in China-based issuers, and any failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and may hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer our Ordinary Shares to investors and cause the value of our Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or be worthless.

On June 10, 2021, the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress enacted the PRC Data Security Law, which took effect on September 1, 2021. The law requires data collection to be conducted in a legitimate and proper manner and stipulates that, for the purpose of data protection, data processing activities must be conducted based on data classification and hierarchical protection system for data security.

On July 6, 2021, the General Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued a document to crack down on certain activities in the securities market and promote the high-quality development of the capital markets, which, among other things, requires the relevant governmental authorities to strengthen cross-border oversight of law-enforcement and judicial cooperation, to enhance supervision over China-based companies listed overseas and to establish and improve the system of extraterritorial application of the PRC securities laws.

On August 20, 2021, the 30th meeting of the Standing Committee of the 13th National People’s Congress voted and passed the “Personal Information Protection Law of the People’s Republic of China”, or the “PRC Personal Information Protection Law”, which became effective on November 1, 2021. The PRC Personal Information Protection Law applies to the processing of personal information of natural persons within the territory of China that is carried out outside of China where (1) such processing is for the purpose of providing products or services for natural persons within China, (2) such processing is to analyze or evaluate the behavior of natural persons within China, or (3) there are any other circumstances stipulated by related laws and administrative regulations.

On December 24, 2021, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”), together with other relevant government authorities in China issued the Provisions of the State Council on the Administration of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (Draft for Comments), and the Measures for the Filing of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (Draft for Comments) (“Draft Overseas Listing Regulations”). The Draft Overseas Listing Regulations requires that a PRC domestic enterprise seeking to issue and list its shares overseas (“Overseas Issuance and Listing”) shall complete the filing procedures of and submit the relevant information to CSRC. The Overseas Issuance and Listing includes direct and indirect issuance and listing. Where an enterprise whose principal business activities are conducted in the PRC seeks to issue and list its shares in the name of an overseas enterprise (“Overseas Issuer”) on the basis of the equity, assets, income or other similar rights and interests of the relevant PRC domestic enterprise, such activities shall be deemed an indirect overseas issuance and listing (“Indirect Overseas Issuance and Listing”) under the Draft Overseas Listing Regulations.

On December 28, 2021, the CAC jointly with the relevant authorities formally published Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021) which took effect on February 15, 2022 and replace the former Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2020) issued on April 13, 2020. Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021) stipulates that operators of critical information infrastructure purchasing network products and services and online platform operators (together with the operators of critical information infrastructure, the “Operators”) carrying out data processing activities that affect or may affect national security, shall conduct a cybersecurity review, any and online platform operator who controls more than one million users’ personal information must go through a cybersecurity review by the cybersecurity review office if it seeks to be listed in a foreign country.

Our Operating Subsidiaries may in the future collect and store certain data (including certain personal information) from our customers, who may be PRC individuals, in connection with our business and operations and for “Know Your Customers” purposes (to combat money laundering). Given that: (i) two of our Operating Subsidiaries are incorporated and located in Hong Kong and the other Operating Subsidiary is incorporated and located in China; (ii) we have an Operating Subsidiary engaged in business operations in mainland China; and (iii) pursuant to the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the “Basic Law”), which is a national law of the PRC and the constitutional document for Hong Kong, national laws of the PRC shall not be applied in Hong Kong, except for those listed in Annex III of the Basic Law (which is confined to laws relating to defense and foreign affairs, as well as other matters outside the autonomy of Hong Kong), we currently may expect the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021), the PRC Personal Information Protection Law and the Draft Overseas Listing Regulations to have an impact on our Operating Subsidiaries or this offering.

These statements and regulatory actions are new, and it is highly uncertain how soon the legislative or administrative regulation making bodies will respond and what existing or new laws or regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations will be modified or promulgated, if any. It is also highly uncertain what the potential impact such modified or new laws and regulations will have on the daily business operations of our Operating Subsidiaries, their respective abilities to accept foreign investments and the listing of our Ordinary Shares on a U.S. or other foreign exchanges. There remains significant uncertainty in the interpretation and enforcement of relevant PRC cybersecurity laws and regulations. If the Draft Overseas Listing Regulations are adopted into law in the future and becomes applicable to our Operating Subsidiaries, if any of our Operating Subsidiaries is deemed to be an “Operator” required to file for cybersecurity review before listing in the United States or if the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021) or the PRC Personal Information Protection Law becomes applicable to our Operating Subsidiaries, the business operations of our Operating Subsidiaries and the listing of our Ordinary Shares in the United States could be subject to the CAC’s cybersecurity review or CSRC Overseas Issuance and Listing review in the future. If our Operating Subsidiaries become subject to the CAC or CSRC review, we cannot assure you that our Operating Subsidiaries will be able to comply with the regulatory requirements in all respects, and the current practice of collecting and processing personal information may be ordered to be rectified or terminated by regulatory authorities. In the event of a failure to comply, our Operating Subsidiaries may become subject to fines and other penalties, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, operations, and financial condition, may hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer Ordinary Shares to investors and cause the value of our Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or be worthless.

If the Chinese government chooses to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, such action may significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer Ordinary Shares to investors and cause the value of our Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or be worthless. As of the date of this prospectus, and based on the advice of our PRC counsel, Sundial Law Firm, we believe that we are in full compliance with the rules and regulations promulgated by the CAC and CSRC and associated policies as issued to current date.

These recent statements, laws, and regulations by the Chinese government, including the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021), the PRC Personal Information Protection Law and the Draft Overseas Listing Regulations, have indicated an intent to exert greater oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investments in China-based issuers. It is uncertain whether the Chinese government will adopt additional requirements or extend the existing requirements to apply to our Operating Subsidiaries located in Hong Kong. We could be subject to approval or review of Chinese regulatory authorities to pursue this offering. Any future action by the PRC government expanding the categories of industries and companies whose foreign securities offerings are subject to review by the CSRC could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and could cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

If the Chinese government were to impose new requirements for approval from the PRC authorities to issue the Company’s Ordinary Shares to foreign investors or list on a foreign exchange, such action could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause such securities to significantly decline in value or become worthless. 

Recently, the General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued the “Opinions on Severely Cracking Down on Illegal Securities Activities According to Law,” or “the Opinions,” which were made available to the public on July 6, 2021. The Opinions emphasized the need to strengthen the administration over illegal securities activities and the need to strengthen the supervision over overseas listings by Chinese companies.

Based on the advice of PRC counsel, Sundial Law Firm, and our understanding of currently applicable PRC laws and regulations, the Company and its PRC subsidiaries: (i) are not currently required to obtain permissions from any PRC authorities to operate or to issue securities to foreign investors; (ii) are not subject to permission requirements from the China Securities Regulatory Commission (the “CSRC”), the Cyberspace Administration of China (the “CAC”) or any other entity that is required to approve their operations; and (iii) have not been denied any permissions by any PRC authorities. In addition, Fenbo Industries Limited, our Hong Kong subsidiary that owns 100% of the outstanding shares of Fenbo Plastic Products Factory (Shenzhen) Ltd., is afforded the legal protections of national treatment under the Foreign Investment Law of the People’s Republic of China.

If we have erroneously concluded that these permission requirements do not apply to us, or if applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change, and it is determined in the future that the permission requirements become applicable to us, we may be subject to review, may face challenges in addressing these requirements and may incur substantial costs in complying with these requirements, which could result in material adverse changes in our business operations and financial position. In addition, if we are not able to fully comply with the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021 version) or if the Opinions come into effect and are determined to be applicable to us, our ability to offer or to continue to offer securities to investors may be significantly limited or completely hindered, and our securities may significantly decline in value or become worthless.

Given the current PRC regulatory environment, it is uncertain whether the Company will be required to obtain permission from the PRC government to list on U.S. exchanges in the future, and if such permission is required, whether it will be denied or later rescinded. We have been closely monitoring regulatory developments in China regarding any necessary approvals from the CSRC or other PRC governmental authorities required for overseas listings, including this offering. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not received any inquiry, notice, warning, sanctions, or regulatory objection to this offering from the CSRC or other PRC governmental authorities. However, there remains significant uncertainty as to the enactment, interpretation and implementation of regulatory requirements related to overseas securities offerings and other capital markets activities.

According to the Administration Provision and the Measures (Draft for Comments), only new offerings and refinancing by existent overseas listed Chinese companies will be required to go through the filing process with PRC administrations; other existent overseas listed companies will be allowed sufficient transition period to complete their filing procedure, which means if we complete the offering prior to the effectiveness of Administration Provisions and Measures, we will certainly go through the filing process in the future, perhaps because of refinancing or given by sufficient transition period to complete filing procedure as an existent overseas listed Chinese company.

On February 17, 2023, with the approval of the State Council, the CSRC promulgated the Trial Administrative Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies, or the Trial Measures, and five supporting guidelines, which became effective on March 31, 2023. Pursuant to the Trial Measures, domestic companies that seek to offer or list securities overseas, both directly and indirectly, shall complete filing procedures with the CSRC pursuant to the requirements of the Trial Measures within three working days following their submission of initial public offerings or listing applications. If a domestic company fails to complete the required filing procedures or conceals any material fact or falsifies any major content in its filing documents, such domestic company may be subject to administrative penalties, such as an order to rectify, warnings and fines, and its controlling shareholders, actual controllers, the person directly in charge and other directly liable persons may also be subject to administrative penalties, such as warnings and fines; (ii) if the issuer meets both of the following criteria, the overseas offering and listing conducted by such issuer shall be deemed an indirect overseas offering and listing by a PRC domestic company: (A) 50% or more of any of the issuer’s operating revenue, total profit, total assets or net assets as documented in its audited consolidated financial statements for the most recent fiscal year were derived from PRC domestic companies; and (B) the majority of the issuer’s business activities are carried out in mainland China, or its main place(s) of business are located in mainland China, or the majority of its senior management team in charge of its business operations and management are PRC citizens or have their usual place(s) of residence located in mainland China; and (C) where a PRC domestic company is seeking an indirect overseas offering and listing in an overseas market, the issuer shall designate a major domestic operating entity responsible for all filing procedures with the CSRC, and where an issuer makes an application for an initial public offering or listing in an overseas market, the issuer shall submit filings with the CSRC within three business days after such application is submitted.

If it is determined in the future that the approval of the CSRC, the CAC or any other regulatory authority is required for this offering, we may face sanctions by the CSRC, the CAC or other PRC regulatory agencies. These regulatory agencies may impose fines and penalties on our operations in China, limit our ability to pay dividends outside of China, limit our operations in China, delay or restrict the repatriation of the proceeds from this offering into China or take other actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, as well as the trading price of our securities. The CSRC, the CAC, or other PRC regulatory agencies also may take actions requiring us, or making it advisable for us, to halt this offering before settlement and delivery of our Ordinary Shares. Consequently, if you engage in market trading or other activities in anticipation of and prior to settlement and delivery of our Ordinary Shares, you do so at the risk that settlement and delivery may not occur. In addition, if the CSRC, the CAC or other regulatory PRC agencies later promulgate new rules requiring that we obtain their approvals for this offering, we may be unable to obtain a waiver of such approval requirements, if and when procedures are established to obtain such a waiver. Any uncertainties and/or negative publicity regarding such an approval requirement could have a material adverse effect on the trading price of our securities.

Risks Related to Our Operating Subsidiaries’ Business Operations

We rely on one major customer, and if we fail to retain this customer or attract new customers, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and growth prospects will be harmed.

We rely on one key customer which contributed approximately 100% of our total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021. We do not have a long-term agreement with our key customer and their purchases are made on an order-by-order basis. Our business with this customer has been, and we expect it will continue to be, conducted based on the actual orders received from time to time. Our sole customer is not obligated in any way to continue placing orders with us at the same or increasing levels, or at all. Our customer’s level of demand for our products may fluctuate significantly from period to period. Such fluctuation is attributable mainly to changes in our customer’s business strategies, operational needs, product portfolio as well as consumer trends. The loss of our sole customer, or if we are unable to attract new customers or if our existing customer decreases their spending on the products we offer, or fails to make repeat purchases of our products, will harm our business, financial condition, results of operations, and growth prospects.

Our one key customer may take actions that adversely affect our gross profit and operating results.

We are dependent upon our one key customer whose bargaining strength is substantial and growing. We may be negatively affected by changes in their policies, such as price and term demands, special packaging, shorter lead times for the delivery of products, smaller and more frequent shipments, or other conditions. If we do not effectively respond to these demands, this customer could decrease their purchases from us and a reduction in the demand for our products or the costs of complying with their business demands could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Our ability to deliver products to our key customer in a timely manner and to satisfy our customers’ fulfillment standards are subject to several factors, some of which are beyond our control.

Our key customer places great emphasis on timely delivery of our products for specific selling seasons, especially during our third fiscal quarter, and on the fulfillment of consumer demand throughout the year. We cannot control all of the various factors that might affect our product delivery. Production delays, difficulties encountered in shipping from overseas, customs clearance delays, and operational issues with any of the third-party logistics providers we use are on-going risks of our business. Accordingly, we are subject to risks, including labor disputes, inclement weather, public health crises (such as pandemics and epidemics), natural disasters, possible acts of terrorism, port and canal backlogs and blockages, availability of shipping containers, and increased security restrictions associated with the carriers’ ability to provide delivery services to meet our shipping needs. These risks have been exacerbated by surges in demand and shifts in shopping patterns related to COVID-19, which has resulted in carrier-imposed capacity restrictions, carrier delays, and longer lead times for our products. Failure to deliver products to our key customer in a timely and effective manner could damage our reputation and result in the loss of our key customer or reduced orders, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.

To compete successfully in the global marketplace, we must develop and introduce innovative new products to meet changing consumer preferences.

Our long-term success in the competitive personal care electric appliance industry depends on our ability to develop and commercialize a continuing stream of innovative new products that meet changing consumer preferences and take advantage of opportunities sooner than our competition. We face the risk that our competitors will introduce innovative new products that compete with our products. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in successfully developing and commercializing new products on a continuing basis and new product launches may not deliver expected growth in sales or operating income. If we are unable to develop and introduce a continuing stream of competitive new products it may have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Our Operating Subsidiaries may not be able to obtain or maintain all necessary licenses, permits and approvals and to make all necessary registrations and filings for their business activities in multiple jurisdictions and related to residents.

In accordance with the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC, our Operating Subsidiaries are required to maintain various approvals, licenses and permits to operate their businesses, including, but not limited to, business licenses. These approvals, licenses and permits are obtained upon satisfactory compliance with, among other things, the applicable laws, and regulations.

Our Operating Subsidiaries may be subject to a large number of regulatory measures imposed by various governmental entities in the PRC as follows: (i) Regulations Relating to Competition; (ii) Electronical Commerce Law; (iii) Regulations Relating to Intellectual Property: Copyright, Trademark, Patent and Domain Name; (iv) Regulations on Offshore Parent Holding Companies’ Direct Investment in and Loans to their PRC Subsidiaries; (v) Regulations Relating to Foreign Exchange; (vi) Regulations Relating to Dividend Distributions; (vii) Regulations Relating to Overseas Listings; (viii) Regulations Relating to Employment; (ix) Regulations Relating to Customer Rights Protection; and (x) Regulations Relating to Tax: Income Tax, Value-Added Tax. As of the date of this prospectus, our Operating Subsidiaries have received all necessary governmental approvals and licenses for operations in the PRC and have not been denied any such licenses or approvals.

Moreover, our Operating Subsidiaries are also subject to laws, regulations and policies relating to the protection of the environment and to workplace health and safety and may be adversely affected by new and changing laws and regulations. They are required to adopt measures to control the discharge of polluting matters, toxic substances or hazardous substances and noise at their facilities in accordance with such applicable laws and regulations and to implement such measures that ensure the safety and health of their employees. Changes to current laws, regulations or policies or the imposition of new laws, regulations, and policies in the personal care electric appliance industry could impose new restrictions or prohibitions on their current practices. Our Operating Subsidiaries may incur significant costs and expenses and need to budget additional resources to comply with any such requirements, which may have a material and adverse effect on their business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

As of the date of this prospectus, our Operating Subsidiaries have received all substantial and necessary governmental approvals for operations in the PRC and Hong Kong. However, in the event that our Operating Subsidiaries fail to renew the relevant licenses or filings, there is no assurance that our Operating Subsidiaries can find suitable suppliers in a timely manner or on reasonable commercial terms, or that such suppliers will at all times perform in a satisfactory level. Therefore, our Operating Subsidiaries’ business, reputation, prospects, results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected. For further discussion, including the possible consequences for non-compliance, see “Regulatory Environment.”

Significant changes in or our compliance with regulations, interpretations or product certification requirements could adversely impact our operations.

We are subject to U.S. and foreign regulations, including environmental, health and safety laws, and industry-specific product certifications. Our products we sell are subject to product safety laws and regulations in various jurisdictions. These laws and regulations specify product safety testing requirements, and set product identification, labeling and claim requirements.

Significant new regulations, material changes to existing regulations, or greater oversight, enforcement, or changes in interpretation of existing regulations, could further delay or interrupt distribution of our products in the U.S. and other countries, result in fines or penalties or cause our costs of compliance to increase. We cannot guarantee that our products will receive regulatory approval in all countries. Some of our personal care electronic appliances require various safety certifications, including UL certifications. Significant new certification requirements or changes to existing certification requirements could further delay or interrupt distribution of our products or make them more costly to produce.

We are not able to predict the nature of potential changes to, or enforcement of laws, regulations, product certification requirements, repeals, or interpretations. Nor are we able to predict the impact that any of these changes would have on our business in the future. Further, if we were found to be noncompliant with applicable laws and regulations in these or other areas, we could be subject to governmental or regulatory actions, including fines, import detentions, injunctions, product withdrawals or recalls or asset seizures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business may be adversely impacted by product defects or other quality issues.

Product defects or other quality issues can occur throughout the product development, design, and manufacturing processes. Any product defects or any other failure of our products or substandard product quality could harm our reputation and result in adverse publicity, lost revenues, delivery delays, product recalls, relationships with our network partners and other business partners, product liability claims, administrative penalties, harm to our brand and reputation, and significant warranty and other expenses, and could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

Our Operating Subsidiaries’ business and operations may be materially and adversely affected in the event of a re-occurrence or a prolonged global pandemic outbreak of COVID-19.

The global pandemic outbreak of COVID-19 announced by the World Health Organization in early 2020 has disrupted our Operating Subsidiaries’ operations and the operations of their customers, suppliers and/or sub-contractors. If the development of the COVID-19 outbreak becomes more severe or new and more deadly variants occur resulting in more stringent regulatory measures being taken, such as complete lockdowns, our Operating Subsidiaries may be forced to close down their businesses after any prolonged disruptions to their operations, and our Operating Subsidiaries may experience a termination of certain of their contracts by their customer. In such event, our Operating Subsidiaries’ operations may be severely disrupted, which may have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, if any of our Operating Subsidiaries’ employees are suspected of having contracted COVID-19, some or all of such employees may be quarantined, and our Operating Subsidiaries will be required to disinfect their workplaces and facilities. In the event that our Operating Subsidiaries’ employees are placed under quarantine orders, our Operating Subsidiaries may face a shortage of labor and their operations may be severely disrupted. Our Operating Subsidiaries’ revenue and profitability may also be materially affected if the COVID-19 outbreak or new outbreaks continue to materially affect the overall economic and market conditions in Hong Kong or China, as the economic slowdown and/or negative business sentiment could potentially have an adverse impact on our Operating Subsidiaries’ business and operations. We are uncertain as to when any new outbreaks of COVID-19 will be contained, and we cannot predict if the impact of any such outbreaks or associated lockdown measures will be short-lived or long-lasting. If the outbreaks of COVID-19 are not effectively controlled within a short period of time, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

The first cases of the BA.5 variant of COVID-19 in China were detected in the first week of July. In Shanghai, authorities ordered mass testing for 12 of its 16 districts in response to new infections linked to a karaoke bar. Although the Chinese government lifted a months-long lockdown in Shanghai in June 2022, Shanghai remains subject to COVID-19 restrictions based on frequent testing. As of the date of this prospectus, our Operating Subsidiaries’ business operations have not been adversely affected by the BA.5 variant.

Global climate change and related legal and regulatory developments could negatively affect our business, results of operations, liquidity, and financial condition.

The effects of climate change resulting from increased concentrations of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as droughts, heat waves, flooding, wildfires, increased storm severity, sea level rise, and power outages or shortages, particularly in certain regions in which we operate, may materially adversely impact our business. China, where our manufacturing operations are conducted, is presently undergoing the worst heat wave in 60 years while also contending with a prolonged drought drying up reservoirs and crippling hydropower stations. This has resulted in power shortages and factories having to cease or limit their production operations. While the Company has not experienced any disruptions in the operations of its manufacturing operating subsidiary, any such disruptions could have a material adverse effect on its business, operations, liquidity, and financial condition.

An economic downturn may adversely affect consumer discretionary spending and demand for our products and services.

Our products and services may be considered discretionary items for consumers. Factors affecting the level of consumer spending for such discretionary items include general economic conditions and other factors, such as consumer confidence in future economic conditions, consumer sentiment, the availability and cost of consumer credit, levels of unemployment, and tax rates. Unfavorable economic conditions may lead consumers to delay or reduce purchases of our products and services and consumer demand for our products and services may not grow as we expect. Our sensitivity to economic cycles and any related fluctuation in consumer demand for our products and services may have an adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition. 

The war in Ukraine could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

The recent outbreak of war in Ukraine has already affected global economic markets, including a dramatic increase in the price of oil and gas, and the uncertain resolution of this conflict could result in protracted and/or severe damage to the global economy. Russia’s recent military interventions in Ukraine have led to, and may lead to, additional sanctions being levied by the United States, the European Union, and other countries against Russia and possibly countries that support, directly or indirectly, Russia’s incursion. Russia’s military incursion and the resulting sanctions could adversely affect global energy and financial markets and thus could affect the businesses of our customers, even though we do not have any direct exposure to Russia or the adjoining geographic regions. The extent and duration of the military action, sanctions and resulting market disruptions are impossible to predict, but could be substantial. Any such disruptions caused by Russian military action or resulting sanctions may magnify the impact of other risks described herein. We cannot predict the progress or outcome of the situation in Ukraine, as the conflict and governmental reactions are rapidly developing and beyond their control. Prolonged unrest intensified military activities or more extensive sanctions impacting the region could have a material adverse effect on the global economy, and such effect could in turn have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Our Operating Subsidiaries rely on our management team and employees in their business.

Our experienced executive directors and senior management team are one of the key factors contributing to our Operating Subsidiaries’ success. Their extensive experience and knowledge of the personal care electric appliance industry help formulate and implement business strategy and foster growth of our Operating Subsidiaries’ business. Particularly, we rely on our Executive Director, Mr. Li Kin Shing, in the overall management, strategic planning and development and daily operation of our Operating Subsidiaries. The loss of services of our Executive Director or of senior management members without timely and suitable replacement may cause disruption or loss of our Operating Subsidiaries’ business operation and prospects. Please refer to “Management – Executive Officers and Directors,” “– Independent Non-Executive Directors” and “– Senior Management/Key Personnel” in this prospectus for details about the experience and roles of our Executive Directors, independent non-executive Directors, and senior management.

Aside from our key management, our Operating Subsidiaries also rely on our employees for their daily operations. Our Operating Subsidiaries’ results of operations and business performance may be materially and adversely affected if we cannot retain the services of our employees and recruit suitable replacements in a timely manner.

Our Operating Subsidiaries derive a significant portion of their revenue from international operations and are exposed to foreign exchange risk. Moreover, fluctuations in exchange rates could have a material and adverse effect on our results of operations and the value of your investment.

Most of our Operating Subsidiaries’ sales are settled in USD, Our Operating Subsidiaries currently do not have a foreign currency hedging policy. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, our Operating Subsidiaries recorded a net foreign exchange gain of approximately HK$521,000; for the year ended December 31, 2022, our Operating Subsidiaries recorded a net foreign exchange loss of approximately HK$7,000 whereas for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021, our Operating Subsidiaries recorded a net foreign exchange gain of approximately HK$459,000. Significant volatility in foreign exchange rates may negatively affect our results of operations and other comprehensive income.

In addition, our Operating Subsidiaries’ revenues and expenses will also be denominated in Hong Kong dollars. Although the exchange rate between of the Hong Kong dollar to the U.S. dollar has been pegged since 1983, we cannot assure you that the Hong Kong dollar will remain pegged to the U.S. dollar. Any significant fluctuations in the exchange rates between Hong Kong dollars and U.S. dollars may have a material adverse effect on our Operating Subsidiaries’ revenue and financial condition. For example, to the extent that we are required to convert U.S. dollars we receive from this offering into Hong Kong dollars for our Operating Subsidiaries’ operations, fluctuations in the exchange rates of the Hong Kong dollar against the U.S. dollar would have an adverse effect on the amounts we receive from the conversion. We have not used any forward contracts, futures, swaps, or currency borrowings to hedge our exposure to foreign currency risk.

Our Operating Subsidiaries are exposed to the credit risk of their customers.

The credit risk exposure of our Operating Subsidiaries mainly arises from trade receivables from our customers. As of June 30, 2023, December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, our Operating Subsidiaries’ accounts receivables amounted to approximately HK$30,255,000, HK$32,938,000 and HK$46,395,000, respectively, which represented approximately 37.2%, 41.2% and 49.3% of total assets, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, year ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, our Operating Subsidiaries did not record any impairment/reversal of accounts receivables. However, our Operating Subsidiaries are still subject to the credit risk of their customers and their liquidity is dependent on their customers making prompt payments.

Furthermore, our Operating Subsidiaries’ suppliers generally offer them a credit period of 30 days to 60 days, while our Operating Subsidiaries generally grant their customers a credit period ranging from 30 days to 90 days. The longer credit period granted to our Operating Subsidiaries’ customers compared to that offered by their suppliers indicates a potential risk of a possible cash flow shortage, which may affect the liquidity of their business. In the event that our Operating Subsidiaries experience a cash flow shortage when their customers do not make settlements on a timely manner, the financial position, profitability, and cash flow of our Operating Subsidiaries may be adversely affected.

Our Operating Subsidiaries may be harmed by negative publicity.

Our Operating Subsidiaries operate in highly competitive industries, and there are other companies in the market that offer similar products and services. They derive most of their customers through word of mouth and rely on the positive feedback of their customers. Thus, customer satisfaction with our Operating Subsidiaries’ products is critical to the success of their business. If our Operating Subsidiaries fail to meet our customer’s expectations, there may be negative feedback which may have an adverse impact on our Operating Subsidiaries’ business and reputation. In the event that our Operating Subsidiaries are unable to maintain a high level of customer satisfaction, or any customer dissatisfaction is inadequately addressed, our Operating Subsidiaries’ business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may also be adversely affected.

Our Operating Subsidiaries’ reputation may also be adversely affected by negative publicity in reports and publications such as major newspapers and forums or any other negative publicity or rumors. There is no assurance that our Operating Subsidiaries will not experience negative publicity in the future or that such negative publicity will not have a material and adverse effect on their reputation or prospects. This may result in our Operating Subsidiaries’ being unable to attract new customers or retain existing customers and may in turn adversely affect their business and results of operations.

We may be unable to successfully implement our business strategies and future plans for our Operating Subsidiaries.

As part of our business strategies and future plans, we intend to expand our Operating Subsidiaries’ operations. While we have planned such expansion based on our outlook regarding our Operating Subsidiaries’ business prospects, there is no assurance that such expansion plans will be commercially successful or that the actual outcome of those expansion plans will match our expectations. The success and viability of our expansion plans are dependent upon our ability to successfully implement our development projects, hire and retain skilled employees to carry out our Operating Subsidiaries’ product development and new market strategies and future plans and implement strategic business development and marketing plans effectively and upon an increase in demand for their products by existing and new customers in the future.

Further, the implementation of our business strategies and future plans for our Operating Subsidiaries’ business operations may require substantial capital expenditure and additional financial resources and commitments. There is no assurance that these business strategies and future plans will achieve the expected results or outcome such as an increase in revenue that will be commensurate with our investment costs or the ability to generate any cost savings, increased operational efficiency and/or productivity improvements to our Operating Subsidiaries’ operations. There is also no assurance that we will be able to obtain financing on terms that are favorable, if at all. If the results or outcome of our future plans do not meet our expectations, including if our Operating Subsidiaries fail to achieve a sufficient level of revenue or fail to manage their costs efficiently, we may not be able to recover our investment costs, and our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be adversely affected.

Risks Related to Our Operating Subsidiaries’ Industry

An economic downturn may adversely affect consumer discretionary spending and demand for our products and services.

Our personal care electric appliance products may be considered discretionary items for consumers. Factors affecting the level of consumer spending for such discretionary items include general economic conditions and other factors, such as consumer confidence in future economic conditions, consumer sentiment, the availability and cost of consumer credit, levels of unemployment, and tax rates. Unfavorable economic conditions may lead consumers to delay or reduce purchases of our products and consumer demand for our products and services may not grow as we expect. Our sensitivity to economic cycles and any related fluctuation in consumer demand for our products and services may have an adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.

Risks Related to Our Securities and the Offering

As of the date of this prospectus, we: (i) are not required to obtain permissions from any PRC authorities to operate or issue our Ordinary Shares to foreign investors; (ii) are not subject to permission requirements from the China Securities Regulatory Commission (the “CSRC”), the Cyberspace Administration of China (the “CAC”) or any other entity that is required to approve of our PRC subsidiaries’ operations; and (iii) have not received or were denied such permissions by any PRC authorities. Given the current PRC regulatory environment, it is uncertain when and whether we will be required to obtain permission from the PRC government to list on U.S. exchanges in the future, and even when such permission is obtained, whether it will be denied or rescinded.

As of the date of this prospectus, we: (i) are not required to obtain permissions from any PRC authorities to operate or issue our Ordinary Shares to foreign investors; (ii) are not subject to permission requirements from the China Securities Regulatory Commission (the “CSRC”), the Cyberspace Administration of China (the “CAC”) or any other entity that is required to approve of our PRC subsidiaries’ operations; and (iii) have not received or were denied such permissions by any PRC authorities. We are also currently not required to obtain any pre-approval from Chinese authorities to list on a U.S. stock exchange, including the NYSE, Nasdaq, or any of the Nasdaq Markets. Given the current PRC regulatory environment, it is uncertain when and whether we will be required to obtain permission from the PRC government to list on U.S. exchanges in the future, and even when such permission is obtained, whether it will be denied or rescinded. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not received any inquiry, notice, warning, sanctions, or regulatory objection to this offering from the CSRC or other PRC governmental authorities. However, if we are required to obtain approval in the future and are denied permission from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, we will not be able to list on a U.S. exchange, which would materially affect the interest of our investors.

In response to recent data security concerns arising from overseas listings of Chinese internet companies operating in the PRC, on January 4, 2022, the Cyberspace Administration of China (the “CAC”) issued revised measures to expand the types of businesses and circumstances that would require cybersecurity review by the CAC. We believe that we may be directly subject to these regulatory actions or statements as our Operating Subsidiaries’ business involves the collection of user data and may implicate cybersecurity and involve any other type of restricted industry. Because these statements and regulatory actions are new, however, it is highly uncertain how soon legislative or administrative regulation making bodies in China will respond to them, or what existing or new laws or regulations will be modified or promulgated, if any, or what the potential impact any such modified or new laws and regulations will be on our Operating Subsidiaries’ daily business operations or our ability to accept foreign investments and list on a U.S. exchange. For further information, see “Risks Factors – Risks Related to Doing Business in the People’s Republic of China and Hong Kong.”

Any future action by the Chinese government to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers or expanding the categories of industries and companies whose foreign securities offerings are subject to government review could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or the securities to become worthless.

Recent statements by the Chinese government have indicated an intent to exert greater oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or over foreign investments in China-based issuers. On July 6, 2021, the General Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued a document to crack down on illegal activities in the securities market and promote the high-quality development of the capital market, which, among other things, requires the relevant governmental authorities to strengthen cross-border oversight of law-enforcement and judicial cooperation, to enhance supervision over China-based companies listed overseas, and to establish and improve the system of extraterritorial application of the PRC securities laws.

Additionally, we could be subject to various government and regulatory interference in the regions in which we operate, which could result in a material change in our operations and the value of the securities. Pursuant to Article 6 of the Revised Draft, companies holding data of more than one million users must now apply for cybersecurity approval when seeking overseas listings because of the risk that such data and personal information could be “affected, controlled, and maliciously exploited by foreign governments.” As confirmed by our PRC counsel, Sundial Law Firm we currently are not subject to cybersecurity review with the CAC to conduct business operations in China, given that: (i) we are not the “operator of critical information infrastructure” or “online platform operator” (ii) we do not possess a large amount of personal information in our business operations, and (iii) as of the date of this prospectus, we have not been involved in any investigations initiated by the CAC, nor have we received any inquiry, notice, warning or sanction in such respect.

On February 17, 2023, with the approval of the State Council, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (the “CSRC”) promulgated the Trial Administrative Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (“Trial Measures”), and five supporting guidelines, which came into effect on March 31, 2023. Pursuant to the Trial Measures, domestic companies that seek to offer or list securities overseas, both directly and indirectly, shall complete filing procedures with the CSRC pursuant to the requirements of the Trial Measures within three working days following their submission of initial public offerings or listing applications. If a domestic company fails to complete the required filing procedures or conceals any material fact or falsifies any major content in its filing documents, such domestic company may be subject to administrative penalties, such as an order to rectify, warnings and fines, and its controlling shareholders, actual controllers, the person directly in charge and other directly liable persons may also be subject to administrative penalties, such as warnings and fines.

As of the date of this prospectus, we have not received any formal inquiry, notice, warning, sanction, or objection from the CSRC with respect to the listing of our Ordinary Shares, and, in the opinion of our PRC legal counsel, Sundial Law Firm, the filing requirements under the Trial Measurements do not apply to the Company since: (i) the revenue, total profit, total assets or net assets of FPPF was less than 50% of that of the Company in total for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022; and (ii) the majority of senior management are non-PRC citizens and reside in Hong Kong.

However, there can be no assurance that the relevant PRC governmental authorities, including the CSRC, would reach the same conclusion as us, or that the CSRC or any other PRC governmental authorities would not promulgate new rules or new interpretation of current rules (with retrospective effect) to require us to obtain CSRC or other PRC governmental approvals for this offering. If we inadvertently concluded that such approvals are not required, our ability to offer or continue to offer our Ordinary Shares to investors could be significantly limited or completed hindered, which could cause the value of our Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or become worthless. We may also face sanctions by the CSRC, the CAC or other PRC regulatory agencies. These regulatory agencies may impose fines, penalties, limit our operations in China, or take other actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, as well as the trading price of our securities.

The promulgation of new laws or regulations, or the new interpretation of existing laws and regulations, may restrict or otherwise unfavorably impact our ability or way to conduct business and may require us to change certain aspects of our business to ensure compliance, which could decrease demand for our services, reduce revenues, increase costs, require us to obtain more licenses, permits, approvals or certificates, or subject us to additional liabilities.

An active trading market for our Ordinary Shares may not be established or, if established, may not continue and the trading price for our Ordinary Shares may fluctuate significantly.

We cannot assure you that a liquid public market for our Ordinary Shares will be established. If an active public market for our Ordinary Shares does not occur following the completion of this offering, the market price and liquidity of our Ordinary Shares may be materially and adversely affected. The public offering price for our Ordinary Shares in this offering was determined by negotiation between us and the representative of the underwriter based on several factors, and we can provide no assurance that the trading price of our Ordinary Shares after this offering will not decline below the public offering price. As a result, investors in our Ordinary Shares may experience a significant decrease in the value of their Ordinary Shares.

We may not maintain the listing of our Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in our Ordinary Shares and subject us to additional trading restrictions.

Our Ordinary Shares have been approved for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. In order to continue listing our shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market, we must maintain certain financial and share price levels and we may be unable to meet these requirements in the future. We cannot assure you that our shares will continue to be listed on Nasdaq in the future.

If Nasdaq delists our Ordinary Shares and we are unable to list our shares on another national securities exchange, we expect that our shares could be quoted on an over-the-counter market in the United States. If this were to occur, we could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

As long as our Ordinary Shares are listed on Nasdaq, U.S. federal law prevents or preempts states from regulating their sale. However, the law does allow states to investigate companies if there is a suspicion of fraud, and, if there is a finding of fraudulent activity, then states can regulate or bar their sale. Further, if we were no longer listed on Nasdaq, we would be subject to regulations in each state in which we offer our shares. 

Nasdaq may apply additional and more stringent criteria for our continued listing.

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5101 provides Nasdaq with broad discretionary authority over the initial and continued listing of securities in Nasdaq and Nasdaq may use such discretion to deny initial listing, apply additional or more stringent criteria for the initial or continued listing of particular securities, or suspend or delist particular securities based on any event, condition, or circumstance that exists or occurs that makes initial or continued listing of the securities on Nasdaq inadvisable or unwarranted in the opinion of Nasdaq, even though the securities meet all enumerated criteria for initial or continued listing on Nasdaq. In addition, Nasdaq has used its discretion to deny initial or continued listing or to apply additional and more stringent criteria in the instances, including but not limited to where the company engaged an auditor that has not been subject to an inspection by PCAOB, an auditor that PCAOB cannot inspect, or an auditor that has not demonstrated sufficient resources, geographic reach, or experience to adequately perform the company’s audit; (ii) where a company planned a small public offering, which would result in insiders holding a large portion of the company’s listed securities. Nasdaq was concerned that an offering size was insufficient to establish the company’s initial valuation, and there would not be sufficient liquidity to support a public market for the company; and (iii) where the company did not demonstrate sufficient nexus to the U.S. capital market, including having no U.S. shareholders, operations, or members of the board of directors or management. For the any aforementioned concerns, we may be subject to the additional and more stringent criteria of Nasdaq for our continued listing, which might cause delay or even denial of our listing application for our Ordinary Shares.

Our stock price may be volatile, and the value of our Ordinary Shares may decline.

We cannot predict the prices at which our Ordinary Shares will trade. The initial public offering price of our Ordinary Shares will be determined by negotiations between us and the underwriters and may not bear any relationship to the market price at which our Ordinary Shares will trade after this offering or to any other established criteria of the value of our business and prospects, and the market price of our Ordinary Shares following this offering may fluctuate substantially and may be lower than the initial public offering price. In addition, the trading price of our Ordinary Shares following this offering is likely to be volatile and could be subject to fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. These fluctuations could cause you to lose all or part of your investment in our Ordinary Shares as you might be unable to sell your Ordinary Shares at or above the price you paid in this offering.

The stock market has recently experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. Broad market and industry fluctuations, as well as general economic, political, regulatory and market conditions, may also negatively impact the market price of our Ordinary Shares. Price volatility may be greater if the public float and trading volume of shares of our Ordinary Shares is low. Furthermore, in the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their securities have been subject to securities class-action litigation following periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future, which could result in substantial costs, divert management’s attention and resources, and harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Certain recent initial public offerings of companies with smaller public floats have experienced extreme stock price and volume fluctuations seemingly unrelated to company performance. Such volatility, if occurs to us, may make it difficult for prospective investors to assess the rapidly changing value of our Ordinary Shares.

Certain recent instances of extreme stock price and volume fluctuations have been seemingly unrelated to company performance following a number of recent initial public offerings, particularly among companies with relatively smaller public floats, and we expect that such instances may continue and/or increase in the future. We anticipate that the trading price of our Ordinary Shares following this offering is likely to be volatile, and our Ordinary Shares may be subject to rapid and substantial price volatility. Such volatility, including any stock run-ups, may be unrelated or disproportionate to our actual or expected operating performance and financial condition or prospects and may distort the market perception of our Ordinary Shares, price and our company’s financial performance and public image, negatively affect the long-term liquidity of our Ordinary Shares, regardless of our actual or expected operating performance. If we encounter such volatility, it will likely make it difficult and confusing for prospective investors to assess the rapidly changing value of our Ordinary Shares and understand the value thereof.

We also anticipate that our Ordinary Shares are likely to be more sporadically and thinly traded than that of larger, more established companies with larger public floats. As a consequence of this lack of liquidity, the trade of relatively small quantities of Ordinary Shares by our stockholders may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. The price of our Ordinary Shares could, for example, decline precipitously in the event that a large number of our Ordinary Shares are sold on the market without commensurate demand as compared to a larger, more established issuer that could better absorb those sales without adverse impact on its stock price.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or publish unfavorable or inaccurate research about our business, the market price and trading volume of our Ordinary Shares could decline.

The market price and trading volume of our Ordinary Shares following the completion of this offering will be heavily influenced by the way analysts interpret our financial information and other disclosures. We do not have control over these analysts. If few securities analysts commence coverage of us, or if industry analysts cease coverage of us, our Ordinary Share price could be negatively affected. If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, downgrade our Ordinary Shares, or publish negative reports about our business, our Ordinary Share price would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of us or fail to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our Ordinary Shares could decrease, which might cause our Ordinary Share price to decline and could decrease the trading volume of our Ordinary Shares.

Because we do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future, you must rely on price appreciation of our Ordinary Shares for a return on your investment.

We currently intend to retain all of our available funds and any future earnings after this offering to fund the development and growth of our business. As a result, we do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Therefore, you should not rely on an investment in our Ordinary Shares as a source for any future dividend income. Our Board of Directors has complete discretion as to whether to distribute dividends, subject to certain requirements of Hong Kong law. Even if our Board of Directors decides to declare and pay dividends, the timing, amount, and form of future dividends, if any, will depend on, among other things, our future results of operations and cash flow, our capital requirements and surplus, the amount of distributions, if any, received by us from our subsidiaries, our financial condition, contractual restrictions, and other factors as determined by our Board of Directors. Accordingly, the return on your investment in our Ordinary Shares will likely depend entirely upon any future price appreciation of our Ordinary Shares. There is no guarantee that our Ordinary Shares will appreciate in value after this offering or even maintain the price at which you purchased our shares. You may not realize a return on your investment in our Ordinary Shares and you may even lose your entire investment.

Because our public offering price per share is substantially higher than our net tangible book value per share, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution.

If you purchase Ordinary Shares in this offering, you will pay substantially more than our net tangible book value per Ordinary Share. As a result, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution of US$4.36 per share, representing the difference between our as adjusted net tangible book value per share of US$0.64 as of June 30, 2023, after giving effect to the net proceeds to us from this offering, assuming no change to the number of Ordinary Shares offered by us as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus and a public offering price of US$5.00 per share. See “Dilution” for a more complete description of how the value of your investment in our Ordinary Shares will be diluted upon the completion of this offering.

As an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands, we are permitted to adopt certain home country practices in relation to corporate governance matters that differ significantly from Nasdaq Capital Market corporate governance listing standards. These practices may afford less protection to shareholders than they would enjoy if we complied fully with Nasdaq Capital Market corporate governance listing standards.

As a foreign private issuer that has been approved to list our Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market, we rely on a provision in the Nasdaq Capital Market corporate governance listing standards that allows us to follow Cayman Islands law with regard to certain aspects of corporate governance. This allows us to follow certain corporate governance practices that differ in significant respects from the corporate governance requirements applicable to U.S. companies listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

For example, we are exempt from Nasdaq Capital Market regulations that require a listed U.S. company to:

As a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to follow home country practice in lieu of the above requirements. Our audit committee is required to comply with the provisions of Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act, which is applicable to U.S. companies listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Therefore, we intend to have a fully independent audit committee upon effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, in accordance with Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act. However, because we are a foreign private issuer, our audit committee is not subject to additional Nasdaq Capital Market corporate governance requirements applicable to listed U.S. companies, including the requirements to have a minimum of three members and to affirmatively determine that all members are “independent,” using more stringent criteria than those applicable to us as a foreign private issuer.

Further, because we are a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act, we are exempt from certain provisions of the securities rules and regulations in the United States that are applicable to U.S. domestic issuers, including:

We will be required to file an annual report on Form 20-F within four months of the end of each fiscal year. In addition, we intend to publish our financial results on a semi-annual basis through press releases distributed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Capital Market. Press releases relating to financial results and material events will also be furnished to the SEC on Form 6-K. However, the information we are required to file with or furnish to the SEC will be less extensive and less timely compared to that required to be filed with the SEC by U.S. domestic issuers. As a result, you may not be afforded the same protections or information that would be made available to you if you were investing in a U.S. domestic issuer.

We may lose our foreign private issuer status in the future, which could result in significant additional costs and expenses to us.

As discussed above, we are a foreign private issuer and, therefore, we are not required to comply with all of the periodic disclosure and current reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. The determination of foreign private issuer status is made annually on the last Business Day of an issuer’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter, and, accordingly, the next determination will be made with respect to us on June 30, 2024 In the future, we would lose our foreign private issuer status if: (i) more than 50% of our outstanding voting securities are owned by U.S. residents; and (ii) a majority of our directors or executive officers are U.S. citizens or residents, or we fail to meet additional requirements necessary to avoid the loss of foreign private issuer status. If we were to lose our foreign private issuer status, we would be required to file with the SEC periodic reports and registration statements on U.S. domestic issuer forms, which are more detailed and extensive than the forms available to a foreign private issuer. We would also have to comply with U.S. federal proxy requirements, and our officers, directors and 10% shareholders would become subject to the short-swing profit disclosure and recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we would lose our ability to rely upon exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements under the listing rules of Nasdaq. As a U.S. listed public company that is not a foreign private issuer, we would incur significant additional legal, accounting, and other expenses that we do not incur as a foreign private issuer.

We will incur significantly increased costs and devote substantial management time as a result of the listing of our Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

We will incur additional legal, accounting, and other expenses as a public reporting company, particularly after we cease to qualify as an emerging growth company. For example, we will be required to comply with the additional requirements of the rules and regulations of the SEC and Nasdaq rules, including applicable corporate governance practices. We expect that compliance with these requirements will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. In addition, we expect that our management and other personnel will need to divert attention from operational and other business matters to devote substantial time to these public company requirements. We cannot predict or estimate the number of additional costs we may incur as a result of becoming a public company or the timing of such costs.

In addition, changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure are creating uncertainty for public companies, increasing legal and financial compliance costs, and making some activities more time-consuming. These laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations, in many cases due to their lack of specificity, and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidelines are provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. We intend to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management’s time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If our efforts to comply with new laws, regulations and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to their application and practice, regulatory authorities may also initiate legal proceedings against us, and our business may be adversely affected.

You may have more difficulties protecting your interests than you would as a shareholder of a U.S. corporation.

We are an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands with limited liability. Our corporate affairs are governed by our Articles of Association, the Companies Act and the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take action against our directors and us, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary duties of our directors to us under Cayman Islands law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands as well as from English common law, the decisions of whose courts are of persuasive authority, but are not binding, on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary duties of our directors under Cayman Islands law are not as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a less developed body of securities laws than the United States. Some U.S. states, such as Delaware, have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law than the Cayman Islands. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have the standing to initiate a shareholder derivative action in a federal court of the United States.

Shareholders of Cayman Islands exempted companies like us have no general rights under Cayman Islands law to obtain copies of the register of members or corporate records of the company. They will, however, have such rights as may be set out in the company’s articles of association. A Cayman Islands exempted company may maintain its principal register of members and any branch registers in any country or territory, whether within or outside the Cayman Islands, as the company may determine from time to time. There is no requirement for an exempted company to make any returns of members to the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands. The names and addresses of the members are, accordingly, not a matter of public record and are not available for public inspection. However, an exempted company shall make available at its registered office, in electronic form or any other medium, such register of members, including any branch register of member, as may be required of it upon service of an order or notice by the Tax Information Authority pursuant to the Tax Information Authority Act (2013 Revision) of the Cayman Islands. This may make it more difficult for you to obtain the information needed to establish any facts necessary for a shareholder resolution or to solicit proxies from other shareholders in connection with a proxy contest.

Certain corporate governance practices in the Cayman Islands, which is our home country, may differ significantly from requirements for companies incorporated in other jurisdictions such as U.S. states. Currently, we plan to rely on home country practice with respect to any corporate governance matter. Accordingly, our shareholders may be afforded less protection than they otherwise would under rules and regulations applicable to U.S. domestic issuers.

As a result of all of the above, shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by our management, members of the Board of Directors or controlling shareholders than they would as shareholders of a company incorporated in a U.S. state. For a discussion of significant differences between the provisions of the Companies Act and the laws applicable to companies incorporated in a U.S. state and their shareholders, see “Certain Cayman Islands Company Considerations — Comparison of Cayman Corporate Law and U.S. Corporate Law” on page 103 of this prospectus.

You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions in China or Hong Kong against us or our management named in the prospectus based on foreign laws.

We are an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, we conduct a substantial amount of operations in China, and a substantial portion of our assets are located in China and Hong Kong. In addition, certain senior executive officers reside within China and/or Hong Kong for a significant portion of the time and are either PRC or Hong Kong nationals. As a result, it may be difficult for our shareholders to effect service of process upon us or those persons inside China or Hong Kong. In addition, neither China nor Hong Kong has treaties providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments of courts with the Cayman Islands and many other countries and regions. Therefore, recognition and enforcement in China or Hong Kong of judgments of a court in any of these non-PRC or Hong Kong jurisdictions in relation to any matter not subject to a binding arbitration provision may be difficult or impossible.

Shareholder claims that are common in the United States, including securities law class actions and fraud claims, generally are difficult to pursue as a matter of law or practicality in China or Hong Kong. For example, in China, there are significant legal and other obstacles to obtaining information needed for shareholder investigations or litigation outside China or otherwise with respect to foreign entities. Although the local authorities in China may establish a regulatory cooperation mechanism with the securities regulatory authorities of another country or region to implement cross-border supervision and administration, such regulatory cooperation with the securities regulatory authorities in the United States have not been efficient in the absence of mutual and practical cooperation mechanism. According to Article 177 of the PRC Securities Law which took effect in March 2020, no overseas securities regulator is allowed to directly conduct investigation or evidence collection activities within the territory of the PRC. Accordingly, without the consent of the competent PRC or Hong Kong securities regulators and relevant authorities, no organization or individual may provide the documents and materials relating to securities business activities to overseas parties.

Certain judgments obtained against us by our shareholders may not be enforceable.

We are a Cayman Islands exempted company and substantially all of our assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, all of our current directors and officers are nationals and residents of countries other than the United States and substantially all of the assets of these persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for a shareholder to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons or to enforce against us or them judgments obtained in United States courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States. Even if you are successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws of the Cayman Islands may render you unable to enforce a judgment against our assets or the assets of our directors and officers. For more information regarding the relevant laws of the Cayman Islands, see “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities.” As a result of all of the above, our shareholders may have more difficulties in protecting their interests through actions against us or our officers, directors or major shareholders than would shareholders of a corporation incorporated in a jurisdiction in the United States.

Our Ordinary Shares may be subject to raid and substantial price volatility unrelated to our performance, which could result in substantial losses to investors.

Our Ordinary Shares may be subject to rapid and substantial price volatility and their trading price could fluctuate widely due to factors beyond our control. Upon the consummation of this offering, we will have a relatively small public float due to the relatively small size of this offering, and the concentrated ownership of our Ordinary Shares among our executive officers and directors. As a result of our small public float, our Ordinary Shares may be less liquid and have greater stock price volatility than the shares of companies with broader public ownership. This may also happen because of the broad market and industry factors, like the performance and fluctuation of the market prices of other companies with business operations located mainly in the PRC or Hong Kong that may have listed their securities in the United States. In addition to market and industry factors, the price and trading volume for our Ordinary Shares may be highly volatile for factors specific to our Operating Subsidiaries’ operations, including the following:

Any of these factors may result in significant and sudden changes in the volume and price at which our shares will trade.

In addition, the stock price of a number of companies involved in initial public offerings, particularly among companies with relatively smaller public floats, has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. Such rapid and substantial price volatility, including any stock run-up, may be unrelated to our actual or expected operating performance and financial condition or prospects, making it difficult for prospective investors to assess the rapidly changing value of our stock. This volatility may prevent you from being able to sell your securities at or above the price you paid for your securities. If the market price of our Ordinary Shares after this offering does not exceed the initial public offering price, you may not realize any return on your investment in us and may lose some or all of your investment.

Furthermore, in the past, shareholders of public companies have often brought securities class action suits against those companies following periods of instability in the market price of their securities. If we were involved in a class action suit, it could divert a significant amount of our management’s attention and other resources from our business and operations and require us to incur significant expenses to defend the suit, which could harm our results of operations. Any such class action suit, whether or not successful, could harm our reputation and restrict our ability to raise capital in the future. In addition, if a claim is successfully made against us, we may be required to pay significant damages, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

If we are classified as a passive foreign investment company, United States taxpayers who own our securities may have adverse United States federal income tax consequences.

We are a non-U.S. corporation and, as such, we will be classified as a passive foreign investment company, which is known as a PFIC, for any taxable year if, for such year, either

Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, rents, royalties (other than rents or royalties derived from the active conduct of a trade or business) and gains from the disposition of passive assets.

If we are determined to be a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a U.S. taxpayer who holds our securities, the U.S. taxpayer may be subject to increased U.S. federal income tax liability and may be subject to additional reporting requirements.

It is possible that, for our current taxable year or for any subsequent year, more than 50% of our assets may be assets which produce passive income. We will make this determination following the end of any particular tax year. We treat our affiliated entities as being owned by us for United States federal income tax purposes, not only because we exercise effective control over the operation of such entities but also because we are entitled to substantially all of their economic benefits, and, as a result, we consolidate their operating results in our consolidated financial statements. For purposes of the PFIC analysis, in general, a non-U.S. corporation is deemed to own its pro rata share of the gross income and assets of any entity in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the equity by value.

For a more detailed discussion of the application of the PFIC rules to us and the consequences to U.S. taxpayers if we were determined to be a PFIC, see “Material Tax Considerations - Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations.”

We are an emerging growth company within the meaning of the Securities Act and may take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements.

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act, and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various requirements applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, most significantly, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for so long as we are an emerging growth company. As a result, if we elect not to comply with such auditor attestation requirements, our investors may not have access to certain information they may deem important.

The JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company does not need to comply with any new or revised financial accounting standards until such date that a private company is otherwise required to comply with such new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the extended transition period, although we have early adopted certain new and revised accounting standards based on transition guidance permitted under such standards. As a result of this election, our future financial statements may not be comparable to other public companies that comply with the public company effective dates for these new or revised accounting standards.

Our Executive Director has substantial influence over the Company. His interests may not be aligned with the interests of our other shareholders, and it could present or cause a change of control or other transactions.

Prior to this offering, through his 100% ownership of LMIL, Mr. Li Kin Shing, our Executive Director, beneficially owns 80% of our issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares. Upon completion of this offering, Mr. Li Kin Shing’s beneficial ownership will be decreased to approximately 72.73%, and our public shareholders will beneficially own approximately 9.09% of our issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares assuming the underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment option. In the event the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full, Mr. Li Kin Shin will own approximately 71.75% of our issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares.

Accordingly, our controlling shareholder could control the outcome of any corporate transaction or other matter submitted to the shareholders for approval, including mergers, consolidations, the election of directors and other significant corporate actions, including the power to prevent or cause a change in control. The interests of our largest shareholder may differ from the interests of our other shareholders. Without the consent of our controlling shareholder, we may be prevented from entering into transactions that could be beneficial to us or our other shareholders. The concentration in the ownership of our shares may cause a material decline in the value of our shares. For more information regarding our principal shareholders and their affiliated entities, see “Principal Shareholder”.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business and the business of our Operating Subsidiaries, or if they adversely change their recommendations regarding our Ordinary Shares, the market price for our Ordinary Shares and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our Ordinary Shares will be influenced by research or reports that industry or securities analysts publish about our business and the business of our Operating Subsidiaries. If one or more analysts downgrade our Ordinary Shares, the market price for our Ordinary Shares would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease to cover us or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn. could cause the market price or trading volume for our Ordinary Shares to decline.

The sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of our Ordinary Shares could adversely affect their market price.

Sales of substantial amounts of our Ordinary Shares in the public market after the completion of this offering, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Ordinary Shares, and could materially impair our ability to raise capital through equity offerings in the future. Prior to the sale of our Ordinary Shares in this offering, we have 10,000,000 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding. The Ordinary Shares sold in this offering will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, and Ordinary Shares held by our existing shareholders may also be sold in the public market in the future, subject to the restrictions in Rule 144 and Rule 701 under the Securities Act and applicable lock-up agreements. There will be 11,000,000 Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after this offering. In connection with this offering, our directors and officers named in the section “Management” and certain shareholders have agreed not to sell any Ordinary Shares until 180 days after the date of this prospectus without the prior written consent of the representative of the underwriters, subject to certain exceptions including with respect to the Ordinary Shares being sold by the Selling Shareholder pursuant to the registration statement that this prospectus forms a part of. However, the representative of the underwriters may release these securities from these restrictions at any time. We cannot predict what effect, if any, market sales of securities held by our controlling shareholder or any other shareholder or the availability of these securities for future sale will have on the market price of our Ordinary Shares. See “Shares Eligible for Future Sale” and “Underwriting” on page 108 and 114, respectively, of this prospectus for a more detailed description of the restrictions on selling our Ordinary Shares after the offering.

Short selling may drive down the market price of our Ordinary Shares.

Short selling is the practice of selling shares that the seller does not own but rather has borrowed from a third party with the intention of buying identical shares back at a later date to return to the lender. The short seller hopes to profit from a decline in the value of the shares between the sale of the borrowed shares and the purchase of the replacement shares, as the short seller expects to pay less in that purchase than it received in the sale. As it is in the short seller’s interest for the price of the shares to decline, many short sellers publish, or arrange for the publication of, negative opinions and allegations regarding the relevant issuer and its business prospects in order to create negative market momentum and generate profits for themselves after selling the shares short. These short attacks have, in the past, led to the selling of shares in the market. If we were to become the subject of any unfavorable publicity, whether such allegations are proven to be true or untrue, we could have to expend a significant amount of resources to investigate such allegations and/or defend ourselves. While we would strongly defend against any such short seller attacks, we may be constrained in the manner in which we can proceed against the relevant short seller by principles of freedom of speech, applicable state law or issues of commercial confidentiality.

You must rely on the judgment of our management as to the uses of the net proceeds from this offering, and such uses may not produce income or increase our share price.

We plan to use the net proceeds of this offering primarily as follows:(i) 40% to expand our production capacity and capability; (ii) approximately 20% to strengthen our engineering, research, and development capability; (iii) approximately 15% to penetrate and further expand into new and existing geographical markets; and (iv) approximately 25% for general working capital. See “Use of Proceeds” on page 50 of this prospectus”.

There are uncertainties with respect to indirect transfers of assets (including equity interests) of our Operating Subsidiaries in the PRC.

The Announcement of the State Administration of Taxation on Issues Relating to Withholding at Source of Income Tax of Non-resident Enterprises (“Announcement No. 37”) and the Announcement on Certain Issues Concerning Enterprise Income Tax for Indirect Transfer of Assets by Non-Resident Enterprises (“Circular 7”) issued by The State Administration of Taxation (“SAT”), provide comprehensive guidelines in relation to, and also heighten the PRC tax authorities scrutiny over, indirect transfers by a non-resident enterprise of assets (including equity interests) of a PRC resident enterprise (“PRC Taxable Assets”).

Announcement No. 37 and Circular 7 specify that the PRC tax authorities are entitled to reclassify the nature of an indirect transfer of PRC Taxable Assets when a non-resident enterprise transfers PRC Taxable Assets indirectly by disposing of equity interests in an overseas holding company directly or indirectly holding such PRC Taxable Assets by disregarding the existence of such overseas holding company and considering the transaction to be a direct transfer of PRC Taxable Assets if such transfer is deemed to have been conducted for the purposes of avoiding PRC enterprise income taxes and without any other reasonable commercial purposes. It is unclear whether any exemptions specified under Circular 7 will be applicable to the transfer of our Shares on a public market by our non-resident enterprise Shareholders or to any future acquisition by us outside of the PRC involving PRC Taxable Assets. Therefore, the PRC tax authorities may deem any transfer of our Shares by our Shareholders that are non-resident enterprises, or any future acquisition by us outside of the PRC involving PRC Taxable Assets to be subject to the foregoing regulations, which may subject our Shareholders or us to additional PRC tax reporting obligations or tax liabilities.

We may be classified as a PRC resident enterprise for PRC enterprise income tax purposes and be subject to PRC taxation on our worldwide income, which could result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our shareholders.

Under the EIT Law, if an enterprise is established outside of the PRC with a “de facto management body” located within the PRC, such enterprise will be considered a PRC tax resident enterprise for tax purposes. Under the regulation on the Implementation of the EIT Rules, the term “de facto management body” is defined as a body that exercises full and substantial control over and overall management of the business, production, personnel, accounts, and properties of an enterprise, so we may be considered a PRC resident enterprise by the PRC tax authorities and will normally be subject to the enterprise income tax on our worldwide income at the rate of 25%. Please see “Regulatory Environment” in this prospectus for further details.

It is unclear how the PRC tax authorities will determine whether an offshore entity is a non-PRC resident enterprise. There is no assurance that PRC tax authorities will not consider us as a “resident enterprise.” If the PRC tax authorities subsequently determine that we or our offshore holding companies are deemed to be or should be classified as “resident enterprise(s),” such entity or entities may be subject to enterprise income tax on their worldwide income at a rate of 25%, which could have a material and adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

The statement by the SEC regarding proposed rule changes submitted by Nasdaq and an act passed by the U.S. Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives all call for additional and more stringent criteria to be applied to emerging market companies. These developments could add uncertainties to our offering, business operations, share price and reputation.

U.S. public companies that have substantially all of their operations in China (including in Hong Kong) have been the subject of intense scrutiny, criticism, and negative publicity by investors, financial commentators, and regulatory agencies, such as the SEC. Much of the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity has centered on financial and accounting irregularities and mistakes, a lack of effective internal controls over financial accounting, inadequate corporate governance policies or a lack of adherence thereto and, in many cases, allegations of fraud.

On December 7, 2018, the SEC and the PCAOB issued a joint statement highlighting continued challenges faced by the U.S. regulators in their oversight of financial statement audits of U.S.-listed companies with significant operations in China. On April 21, 2020, SEC Chairman Jay Clayton and PCAOB Chairman William D. Duhnke III, along with other senior SEC staff, released a joint statement highlighting the risks associated with investing in companies based in or have substantial operations in emerging markets including China, reiterating past SEC and PCAOB statements on matters including the difficulty associated with inspecting accounting firms and audit work papers in China and higher risks of fraud in emerging markets and the difficulty of bringing and enforcing SEC, Department of Justice and other U.S. regulatory actions, including in instances of fraud, in emerging markets generally.

On May 20, 2020, the U.S. Senate passed the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “HFCA”) requiring a foreign company to certify it is not owned or controlled by a foreign government if the PCAOB is unable to audit specified reports because the company uses a foreign auditor not subject to PCAOB inspection. If the PCAOB is unable to inspect the company’s auditors for three consecutive years, the issuer’s securities are prohibited to trade on a national exchange. On December 2, 2020, the U.S. House of Representatives approved the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act.

On May 21, 2021, Nasdaq filed three proposals with the SEC to (i) apply minimum offering size requirement for companies primarily operating in a “Restrictive Market,” (ii) prohibit Restrictive Market companies from directly listing on Nasdaq Capital Market, and only permit them to list on Nasdaq Global Select or Nasdaq Global Market in connection with a direct listing and (iii) apply additional and more stringent criteria to an applicant or listed company based on the qualifications of the company’s auditors.

As more stringent criteria may be imposed, including the HFCA, which became law in December 2020, our Ordinary Shares may be prohibited from trading if our auditor cannot be fully inspected. The PCAOB issued a Determination Report on December 16, 2021 (the “Determination Report”), which found that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in: (1) mainland China of the People’s Republic of China because of a position taken by one or more authorities in mainland China; and (2) Hong Kong, a Special Administrative Region and dependency of the PRC, because of a position taken by one or more authorities in Hong Kong. In addition, the Determination Report identified the specific registered public accounting firms subject to these determinations which included our auditor who appears as part of the report and is listed under its Appendix B: Registered Public Accounting Firms Subject to the Hong Kong Determination.

On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB announced that it has secured complete access to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate the previous 2021 Determination Report to the contrary.

The HFCAA prohibits foreign companies from listing their securities on U.S. exchanges if the company’s auditor has been unavailable for PCAOB inspection or investigation for three consecutive years and, as a result, an exchange may determine to delist our Ordinary Shares. In June 2021, the Senate passed the AHFCAA which, if signed into law, would reduce the time period for the delisting of foreign companies under the HFCAA to two consecutive years instead of three years. In the event that the HFCAA is amended to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchange and our auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three, it will reduce the time before our Ordinary Shares may be prohibited from trading or delisted from an exchange.

As a result of this scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity, the publicly traded stock of many U.S. listed Chinese companies sharply decreased in value and, in some cases, has become virtually worthless. Many of these companies are now subject to shareholder lawsuits and SEC enforcement actions and are conducting internal and external investigations into the allegations. It is not clear what effect this sector-wide scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity will have on us, our offering, business, and our Ordinary Share price. If we become the subject of any unfavorable allegations, whether such allegations are proven to be true or untrue, we will have to expend significant resources to investigate such allegations and/or defend our company. This situation will be costly and time consuming and distract our management from furthering our growth. If such allegations are not proven to be groundless, we and our business operations will be severely affected, and you could sustain a significant decline in the value of our Ordinary Shares.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

Our Company is an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands. We are incorporated in the Cayman Islands because of certain benefits associated with being a Cayman Islands company, such as political and economic stability, an effective judicial system, a favorable tax system, the absence of foreign exchange control or currency restrictions and the availability of professional and support services. However, the Cayman Islands has a less developed body of securities laws as compared to the United States and provides less protection for investors. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to sue before the U.S. federal courts.

All of our Operating Subsidiaries’ current operations are conducted outside of the United States, and all of our current assets are located outside of the United States, with the majority of our and our Operating Subsidiaries’ operations and current assets being located in Hong Kong and China. In addition, our auditors are located in Vancouver, Canada, and our senior executive officers are located either in China or in Hong Kong for a significant portion of the time and are either PRC or Hong Kong nationals. As a result, it may be difficult for our shareholders to effect service of process upon us or those persons. In addition, neither China nor Hong Kong has treaties providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments of courts within the Cayman Islands. Therefore, recognition and enforcement in China or Hong Kong of judgments of a court in non-PRC or Hong Kong jurisdictions in relation to any matter not subject to a binding arbitration provision may be difficult or impossible.

Shareholder claims that are common in the United States, including securities law class actions and fraud claims, generally are difficult to pursue as a matter of law or practicality in China or Hong Kong. For example, in China, there are significant legal and other obstacles to obtaining the information needed for shareholder investigations or litigation outside China or otherwise with respect to foreign entities. Although the local authorities in China may establish a regulatory cooperation mechanism with the securities regulatory authorities of another country or region to implement cross-border supervision and administration, such regulatory cooperation with the securities regulatory authorities in the United States have not been efficient in the absence of a mutual and practical cooperation mechanism. According to Article 177 of the PRC Securities Law, which took effect in March 2020, no overseas securities regulator is allowed to directly conduct investigation or evidence collection activities within the territory of the PRC. Accordingly, without the consent of the competent PRC or Hong Kong securities regulators and relevant authorities, no organization or individual may provide the documents and materials relating to securities business activities to overseas parties.

We have appointed Cogency Global Inc., 122 E. 42^nd Street, 18^th Floor, New York, New York 10168 as our agent upon whom process may be served in any action brought against us under the securities laws of the United States.

Cayman Islands

We have been advised by Harney Westwood & Riegels that although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the federal or state courts of the United States (and the Cayman Islands are not a party to any treaties for the reciprocal enforcement or recognition of such judgments), the Cayman Islands Grand Court will at common law enforce final and conclusive in personam judgments of state and/or federal courts of the United States of America (the “Foreign Court”) of a debt or definite sum of money against the Company (other than a sum of money payable in respect of taxes or other charges of a like nature, or in respect of a fine or other penalty (which may include a multiple damages judgment in an anti-trust action)). The Grand Court of the Cayman Islands will also at common law enforce final and conclusive in personam judgments of the Foreign Court that are non-monetary against the Company, for example, declaratory judgments ruling upon the true legal owner of shares in a Cayman Islands company. The Grand Court will exercise its discretion in the enforcement of non-money judgments by applying the law of equity and determining whether the principle of comity requires recognition. To be treated as final and conclusive, any relevant judgment must be regarded as res judicata by the Foreign Court. A debt claim on a foreign judgment must be brought within 12 years of the judgment becoming enforceable, and arrears of interest on a judgment debt cannot be recovered after six years from the date on which the interest was due. The Cayman Islands courts are unlikely to enforce a judgment obtained from the Foreign Court under civil liability provisions of U.S. federal securities law if such a judgment is found by the courts of the Cayman Islands to give rise to obligations to make payments that are penal or punitive in nature. Such a determination has not yet been made by the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands, and it is therefore uncertain whether such civil liability judgments from the Foreign Court would be enforceable in the Cayman Islands. A Cayman Islands court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere. A judgment entered in default of appearance by a defendant who has had notice of the Foreign Court’s intention to proceed may be final and conclusive notwithstanding that the Foreign Court has power to set aside its own judgment and despite the fact that it may be subject to an appeal the time-limit for which has not yet expired. The Grand Court may safeguard the defendant’s rights by granting a stay of execution pending any such appeal and may also grant interim injunctive relief as appropriate for the purpose of enforcement.

Hong Kong

There is uncertainty as to whether the courts of Hong Kong would: (i) recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States; or (ii) entertain original actions brought in Hong Kong against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States.

A judgment of a court in the United States predicated upon U.S. federal or state securities laws may be enforced in Hong Kong at common law by bringing an action in a Hong Kong court on that judgment for the amount due thereunder, and then seeking summary judgment on the strength of the foreign judgment, provided that the foreign judgment, among other things, is: (i) for a debt or a definite sum of money (not being taxes or similar charges to a foreign government taxing authority or a fine or other penalty); and (ii) final and conclusive on the merits of the claim, but not otherwise. Such a judgment may not, in any event, be so enforced in Hong Kong if (a) it was obtained by fraud; (b) the proceedings in which the judgment was obtained were opposed to natural justice; (c) its enforcement or recognition would be contrary to the public policy of Hong Kong; (d) the court of the United States was not jurisdictionally competent; or (e) the judgment was in conflict with a prior Hong Kong judgment.

Hong Kong has no arrangement for the reciprocal enforcement of judgments with the United States. As a result, there is uncertainty as to the enforceability in Hong Kong, in original actions or in actions for enforcement, of judgments of United States courts of civil liabilities predicated solely upon the federal securities laws of the United States or the securities laws of any State or territory within the United States.

PRC

The recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under the PRC Civil Procedure Law. PRC courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of PRC Civil Procedure Law based either on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on reciprocity between jurisdictions. China does not have any treaties or other forms of reciprocity with the United States or the Cayman Islands that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedure Law, courts in the PRC will not enforce a foreign judgment against us or our directors and officers if they decide that the judgment violates the basic principles of PRC law or national sovereignty, security, or public interest. As a result, it is uncertain whether and on what basis a PRC court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the United States or in the Cayman Islands.

USE OF PROCEEDS

If the underwriter does not exercise its over-allotment option, we expect to receive approximately US$3,361,000 of net proceeds from this offering, based on the public offering price of US$5.00 per share, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of US$400,000, a non-accountable expense allowance to the underwriter of US$50,000 and estimated offering expenses of approximately US$1,189,000 payable by us. If the underwriter exercises its over-allotment option in full, we expect to receive approximately US$4,043,500 of net proceeds from this offering after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of US$460,000, a non-accountable expense allowance to the underwriter of US$57,500 and estimated offering expenses of approximately US$1,189,000¹.

We currently intend to use the net proceeds received from this offering primarily as follows:

The foregoing represents our current intentions based upon our present plans and business conditions to use and allocate the net proceeds of this offering. Management, however, will have significant flexibility and discretion to apply the net proceeds of this offering. To the extent that the net proceeds we receive from this offering are not immediately used for the above purposes, we intend to invest our net proceeds in short-term, interest-bearing bank deposits or debt instruments.

Expand our production capacity and capability.

We intend to upgrade and expand our existing production facilitates. By allocating 40% of the net proceeds in purchasing and installing new equipment, such as acquisition and replacement of our plastic injection molding production line and other ancillary equipment in the SZ Factory, we will be able to increase our overall production capacity and capability.  

Strengthen our engineering, research, and development capability.

We plan to allocate 20% of the net proceeds to reinforce our product development capability by way of recruiting more engineers or additional research and development personnel. With a stronger engineering, research, and development team, we will be better positioned to expand the range of product models and lines available for our ODM and OBM customers.

Penetrate and further expand into new and existing geographical markets.

For the purpose of penetration and further expansion into new and existing geographical markets, we plan to allocate 15% of the net proceeds to establish new subsidiary or representative offices and enhancing our sales and marketing efforts in new or existing geographical markets such as United States to enhance our sales and service support for our customers. With the establishment of a subsidiary or representative offices in a new or existing geographical market, we believe that we could (i) strengthen our services support to our existing customer, Spectrum Brands, with a more timely response to their requirements thus solidifying our relationship with them and potentially resulting in us being engaged by them for additional products; and (ii) explore cooperative opportunities with other new customers, thereby capturing new sales opportunities and expanding our market share.

General working capital

We intend to reserve 17% of the net proceeds for general working capital needs and use for daily operations. This will serve as a buffer to deal with the fluctuating economic environment while at the same time providing a stable financial backup for daily operational use.

¹ Includes advisory fees of US$61,146 to ARC Group Limited (previously paid) and US$380,000 to GCA Advisors Limited

DIVIDENDS AND DIVIDEND POLICY

For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022, a dividend of HK$3,370,000 and HK$10,000,000 was declared, respectively. The dividends declared were added to the amount due to related parties and there was no cash flow effect resulted. Saved as disclosed above, no other dividends were declared or paid by us or our Operating Subsidiaries for the six months ended June 30, 2023, fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022.

Any future dividend payments should not be considered as a guarantee or indication that those companies will declare and pay dividends in such manner in the future or at all. Further, as of the date of this prospectus, our Board does not intend to pay any dividends on our Ordinary Shares for the foreseeable future. We anticipate that all of our net earnings, if any, will be used for the operation and growth of our Operating Subsidiaries’ businesses.

We have adopted a dividend policy, according to which our Board shall take into account, among other things, the following factors when deciding whether to propose a dividend and in determining the dividend amount: (a) operating and financial results; (b) cash flow situation; (c) business conditions and strategies; (d) future operations and earnings; (e) taxation considerations; (f) interim dividend paid, if any; (g) capital requirement and expenditure plans; (h) interests of shareholders; (i) statutory and regulatory restrictions; (j) any restrictions on payment of dividends; and (k) any other factors that our Board may consider relevant. The payment of dividends, in certain circumstances, is also subject to the approval of our Shareholders, the Cayman Islands Companies Act and our Articles of Association as well as any other applicable laws. Currently, we do not have any predetermined dividend distribution ratio.

Even if our Board of Directors decides to pay dividends, the form, frequency, and amount will depend upon our future operations and earnings, capital requirements and surplus, general financial condition, contractual restrictions, and other factors that the Board of Directors may deem relevant. In addition, we are a holding company and depend on the receipt of dividends and other distributions from our subsidiaries to pay dividends on our Ordinary Shares.

DILUTION

Investors purchasing our Ordinary Shares in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value of their Ordinary Shares. Dilution in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value represents the difference between the initial public offering price of our Ordinary Shares and the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our Ordinary Shares immediately after the offering.

Historical net tangible book value per share represents our total tangible assets (total assets excluding goodwill and other intangible assets, net) less total liabilities, divided by the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares. After giving effect to the sale of Ordinary Shares in this offering by the Company based on the offering price of US$5.00 per Ordinary Share, after deducting US$400,000 in underwriting discounts and commissions (assuming 1,000,000 Ordinary Shares to be issued in this offering with no exercise of over-allotment option), a non-accountable expense allowance to the underwriter of US$50,000 and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company of approximately US$1,189,000, the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of June 30, 2023 would have been approximately US$7,013,000, or US$0.64 per Ordinary Share. This represents an immediate increase in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value of US$0.27 per Ordinary Share to our existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of US$4.36 per share to new investors purchasing Ordinary Shares in this offering. If the over-allotment is exercised in full, the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of June 30, 2023 would have been approximately US$7,696,000, or US$0.69 per Ordinary Share. This represents an immediate increase in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value of US$0.32 per Ordinary Share to our existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of US$4.31 per share to new investors purchasing Ordinary Shares in this offering.

The following table illustrates this dilution on a per Ordinary Share basis to new investors.
