PROSPECTUS

Top Wealth Group Holding Limited

Up to 27,000,000 Ordinary Shares

We are offering in a best efforts basis up to 27,000,000 ordinary shares with US$0.0001 par value per share (the “Ordinary Shares”) of Top Wealth Group Holding Limited (“Top Wealth”, the “Company” “we”, “our”, “us”) at an offering price of US$ 0.4 per share.

Our share price is volatile. From April 19, 2024, the day when the Company announced the closing of its initial public offering through October 11, 2024, our Ordinary Shares have traded at a low of $0.65 and a high of $8.60. There has been no change recently in our financial condition or results of operations that is consistent with the recent change in our share price.

Our Ordinary Shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “TWG”. On October 11, 2024, the last reported sales price of our Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market was US$7.14 per share.

The securities are offered at a fixed price and issued in a single closing. We will deliver all securities to be issued in connection with this offering delivery versus payment/receipt versus payment upon receipt of investor funds received by us. Accordingly, neither we nor the placement agent have made any arrangements to place investor funds in an escrow account or trust account since the placement agent will not receive investor funds in connection with the sale of the securities offered hereunder. 

Any proceeds from the sale of Ordinary Shares offered by us will be available for our immediate use, despite uncertainty about whether we would be able to use such funds to effectively implement our business plan. See “Risk Factors” on page 14 for more information.

Investing in our Ordinary Shares involves a high degree of risk, including the risk of losing your entire investment. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 14 to read about factors you should consider before buying our Ordinary Shares.

Top Wealth Group Holding Limited is not a PRC or Hong Kong operating company, but a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands. As a holding company with no material operations, Top Wealth Group Holding Limited conducts all of its operations in Hong Kong through its subsidiary, Top Wealth Group (International Limited) (the “Operating Subsidiary”), which was incorporated in Hong Kong. Investors are cautioned that you are not buying shares of a Hong Kong-based operating company but instead are buying shares of a Cayman Islands holding company with operations conducted by our subsidiary based in Hong Kong. This structure involves unique risks to the investors, and the PRC regulatory authorities could disallow this structure, which would likely result in a material change in our operations and/or a material change in the value of our Ordinary Shares, including that such event could cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or become worthless. Furthermore, shareholders may face difficulties enforcing their legal rights under United States securities laws against our directors and officers who are located outside of the United States.

We are subject to certain legal and operational risks associated with having all business operations in Hong Kong, a Special Administrative Region of the PRC, as well as the risks associated with having clients who are Mainland China individuals or companies that have shareholders or directors that are Mainland China individuals. We are also subject to the risks of uncertainty about any future actions the PRC government or authorities in Hong Kong may take in this regard. Such risks may include changes in the legal, political, and economic policies of the Chinese government, the relations between China and the United States, and Chinese or United States regulations that may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and the market price of the Ordinary Shares. Any such changes could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investor and could cause the value of offered securities to significantly decline or become worthless. PRC laws and regulations governing our current business operations are sometimes vague and uncertain. Recently, the PRC government initiated a series of regulatory actions and made statements to regulate business operations in China with little advance notice, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding the efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. Since these statements and regulatory actions are new, it is highly uncertain how soon 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, and the potential impact such modified or new laws and regulations will have on the daily business operation of our HK subsidiary. Should the PRC government choose to exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business, or in the event that we or the Operating Subsidiary were to become subject to PRC laws and regulations, we could incur material costs to ensure compliance, and we or the Operating Subsidiary might be subject to fines, experience devaluation of securities or delisting, no longer be permitted to conduct offerings to foreign investors, and/or no longer be permitted to continue business operations as presently conducted. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Doing Business in the Jurisdictions in which we Operate” beginning on page 14.

We are an “Emerging Growth Company” and a “Foreign Private Issuer” under applicable U.S. federal securities laws and are, therefore, eligible for reduced public company reporting requirements. Please read “Emerging Growth Company Status” beginning on page 7 and “Foreign Private Issuer Status” beginning on page 8 for more information.

Our Ordinary Shares may be prohibited from trading on a national exchange or “over-the-counter” markets under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “HFCAA”) if the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) determines that it is unable to inspect or fully investigate our auditor and as a result the exchange where our securities are traded may delist our securities. Furthermore, on June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “AHFCAA”), which was signed into law on December 29, 2022, amending the HFCAA and requiring the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchange if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three consecutive years. Pursuant to the HFCAA, the PCAOB issued a Determination Report on December 16, 2021, which found that the PCAOB was unable to inspect or investigate completely certain named registered public accounting firms headquartered in Mainland China and Hong Kong.

Our auditor, Onestop Assurance PAC, the independent registered public accounting firm that issues the audit report for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, is currently subject to PCAOB inspections and the PCAOB is able to inspect our auditor. Onestop Assurance PAC, headquartered in Singapore, has been inspected by the PCAOB on a regular basis. Our auditor is not headquartered in mainland China or Hong Kong and was not identified in this report as a firm subject to the PCAOB’s determination. Therefore, we believe that, as of the date of this prospectus, our auditor is not subject to the PCAOB determinations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the future, if there is any regulatory change or step taken by PRC regulators that does not permit Onestop Assurance PAC to provide audit documentations located in China or Hong Kong to the PCAOB for inspection or investigation, or the PACOB expands the scope of the Determination so that we are subject to the HFCAA, as the same may be amended, you may be deprived of the benefits of such inspection which could result in limitation or restriction to our access to the U.S. capital markets and trading of our securities, including trading on the national exchange. See “Prospectus Summary — Implications of the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “HFCAA”)” on page 12 of this prospectus and “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Ordinary Shares — Our Ordinary Shares may be prohibited from being traded on a national exchange under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act if the PCAOB is unable to inspect our auditor. 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, which was signed into law on December 29, 2022, amending 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 page 43 of this prospectus. 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.

TW Cayman is permitted under the laws of the Cayman Islands to provide funding to TW BVI through loans or capital contributions without restrictions on the amount of the funds. TW BVI is permitted under the respective laws of BVI to provide funding to TW HK through dividend distribution without restrictions on the amount of the funds. There are no restrictions on dividend transfers from BVI to Hong Kong. As a holding company, TW Cayman may rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by its subsidiaries for its cash and financing requirements. As of the date of this prospectus, TW Cayman and its subsidiaries do not have any plans to distribute earnings or settle amounts in the foreseeable future. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, no dividends or distribution have been made to date by our subsidiaries.

We have engaged AC Sunshine Securities, LLC as our exclusive placement agent (“AC Sunshine” or the “placement agent”) to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit offers to purchase our securities in this offering. The placement agent has no obligation to purchase any of the securities from us or to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of the securities. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing in this offering, the actual public offering amount, placement agent’s fee and proceeds to us, if any, are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the total maximum offering amounts set forth above and throughout this prospectus. We have agreed to pay the placement agent the placement agent fees set forth in the table below. See “Plan of Distribution” in this prospectus for more information. 

Neither the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed on the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our Ordinary Shares involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our Ordinary Shares, you should consider carefully the risks described below, together with all of the other information set forth in this prospectus, including the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be materially and adversely affected, which could cause the trading price of our Ordinary Shares to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to Doing Business in the Jurisdictions in which We Operate

All of our operations are in Hong Kong. However, due to the long arm application of the current PRC laws and regulations, the PRC government may exercise significant direct oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business and may intervene or influence our operations, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our Ordinary Shares. Our Operating Subsidiary in Hong Kong may be subject to laws and regulations of the Mainland China, which may impair our ability to operate profitably and result in a material negative impact on our operations and/or the value of our Ordinary Shares. Furthermore, the changes in the policies, regulations, rules, and the enforcement of laws of the PRC may also occur quickly with little advance notice and our assertions and beliefs of the risk imposed by the PRC legal and regulatory system cannot be certain.

Our Operating Subsidiary is located and operates its business in Hong Kong, a special administrative region of the PRC. The Operating Subsidiary, or TW HK does not have operation in Mainland China and is not regulated by any regulator in Mainland China. As a result, the laws and regulations of the Mainland China do not currently have any material impact on our business, financial condition and results of operation. Furthermore, except for the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (“Basic Law”), national laws of the Mainland China do not apply in Hong Kong unless they are listed in Annex III of the Basic Law and applied locally by promulgation or local legislation. National laws that may be listed in Annex III are currently limited under the Basic Law to those which fall within the scope of defense and foreign affairs as well as other matters outside the limits of the autonomy of Hong Kong. National laws and regulations relating to data protection, cybersecurity and the anti-monopoly have not been listed in Annex III and so do not apply directly to Hong Kong.

However, due to long arm provisions under the current Mainland China laws and regulations, there remain regulatory and legal uncertainty with respect to the implementation of laws and regulations of Mainland China to Hong Kong. As a result, there is no guarantee that the PRC government may not choose to implement the laws of the Mainland China to Hong Kong and exercise significant direct influence and discretion over the operation of our Operating Subsidiary in the future and, it will not have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations, due to changes in laws, political environment or other unforeseeable reasons.

In the event that we or our Hong Kong Operating Subsidiary were to become subject to laws and regulations of Mainland China, the legal and operational risks associated in Mainland China may also apply to our operations in Hong Kong, and we face the risks and uncertainties associated with the legal system in the Mainland China, complex and evolving Mainland China laws and regulations, and as to whether and how the recent PRC government statements and regulatory developments, such as those relating to data and cyberspace security and anti-monopoly concerns, would be applicable to companies like our Operating Subsidiary and us, given the substantial operations of our Operating Subsidiary in Hong Kong and the PRC government may exercise significant oversight over the conduct of business in Hong Kong.

The laws and regulations in the Mainland China are evolving, and their enactment timetable, interpretation, enforcement, and implementation involve significant uncertainties, and may change quickly with little advance notice, along with the risk that the PRC government may intervene or influence our Operating Subsidiary’s operations at any time could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our securities. Moreover, there are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of Mainland China laws and regulations including, but not limited to, the laws and regulations related to our business and the enforcement and performance of our arrangements with customers in certain circumstances. The laws and regulations are sometimes vague and may be subject to future changes, and their official interpretation and enforcement may involve substantial uncertainty. The effectiveness and interpretation of newly enacted laws or regulations, including amendments to existing laws and regulations, may be delayed, and our business may be affected if we rely on laws and regulations which are subsequently adopted or interpreted in a manner different from our understanding of these laws and regulations. New laws and regulations that affect existing and proposed future businesses may also be applied retroactively. We cannot predict what effect the interpretation of existing or new PRC laws or regulations may have on our business.

The laws, regulations, and other government directives in the Mainland China may also be costly to comply with, and such compliance or any associated inquiries or investigations or any other government actions may:

Our business, financial conditions and results of operations, and/or the value of our Ordinary Shares or our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors may be materially and adversely affected by existing or future laws and regulations of the mainland China which may become applicable to Hong Kong and thus to company such as us.

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

We have no operations in Mainland China. Our operating subsidiary, or TW HK is located and operate in Hong Kong, a special administrative region of the PRC. As of the date of this prospectus, the PRC government currently does not exert direct influence and discretion over the manner in which we conduct our business activities in Hong Kong, outside of Mainland China. Based on our understanding of the mainland China laws and regulations currently in effect as of the date of this prospectus, as TW HK is located in Hong Kong, we are not currently required to obtain permission from the PRC government to list on a U.S. securities exchange and consummate this Offering. However, there is no guarantee that this will continue to be the case in the future in relation to the continued listing of our securities on a securities exchange outside of the PRC, or even when such permission is obtained, it will not be subsequently denied or rescinded. It remains uncertain as to the enactment, interpretation and implementation of regulatory requirements related to overseas securities offering and other capital markets activities and due to the possibility that laws, regulations, or policies in the PRC could change rapidly in the future, it remains uncertain whether the PRC government will adopt additional requirements or extend the existing requirements to apply to our operating subsidiary located in Hong Kong. It is also uncertain whether the Hong Kong government will be mandated by the PRC government, despite the constitutional constraints of the Basic Law, to control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment of entities in Hong Kong, including our operating subsidiary. Any actions by the PRC government to exert more oversight and control over offerings (including businesses whose primary operations are in Hong Kong) that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investments in Hong Kong-based issuers 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 be worthless.

The PRC government may intervene or influence our operations at any time or may exert control over offerings conducted overseas and foreign investment in Hong Kong-based issuers, which may result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our Ordinary Shares. For example, there is currently no restriction or limitation under the laws of Hong Kong on the conversion of HK dollar into foreign currencies and the transfer of currencies out of Hong Kong and the laws and regulations of the PRC on currency conversion control do not currently have any material impact on the transfer of cash between the ultimate holding company and the Operating Subsidiary in Hong Kong. The PRC government may, in the future, impose restrictions or limitations on our ability to move money out of Hong Kong to distribute earnings and pay dividends to and from the other entities within our group or to reinvest in our business outside of Hong Kong. Such restrictions and limitations, if imposed in the future, may delay or hinder the expansion of our business to the outside of Hong Kong and may affect our ability to receive funds from our Operating Subsidiary in Hong Kong.

If the PRC government chooses to extend the oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in Mainland China-based issuers to Hong Kong-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.

Recent statements, laws, and regulations by the PRC government, including the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021), the PRC Personal Information Protection Law and the Draft Rules on Overseas Listing published by CSRC on December 24, 2021 also have indicated an intent to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investments in Mainland China-based issuers. It remains uncertain as to the enactment, interpretation, and implementation of regulatory requirements related to overseas securities offering and other capital markets activities and due to the possibility that laws, regulations, or policies in the PRC could change rapidly in the future.

It remains uncertain whether the PRC government will adopt additional requirements or extend the existing requirements to apply to our Operating Subsidiary. It is also uncertain whether the Hong Kong government will be mandated by the PRC government, despite the constitutional constraints of the Basic Law, to control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment of entities in Hong Kong, including our Operating Subsidiary. Any actions by the PRC government to exert more oversight and control over offerings (including of businesses whose primary operations are in Hong Kong) that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investments in Hong Kong-based issuers could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors. If there is a significant change to current political arrangements between Mainland China and Hong Kong, or the applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change, and, in such event, if we are required to obtain such approvals in the future and we do not receive or maintain the approvals or is denied permission from Mainland China or Hong Kong authorities, we will not be able to list our Ordinary Shares on a U.S. exchange, or continue to offer securities to investors, which would materially affect the interests of the investors and cause significant the value of our Ordinary Shares significantly decline or be worthless.

The enforcement of laws and rules and regulations in the PRC can change quickly with little advance notice. Additionally, the PRC laws and regulations and the enforcement of such that apply or are to be applied to Hong Kong can change quickly with little or no advance notice. As a result, the Hong Kong legal system embodies uncertainties which could limit the availability of legal protections, which could result in a material change in our Operating Subsidiary’s operations and/or the value of the securities we are offering.

As one of the conditions for the handover of the sovereignty of Hong Kong to China, China accepted conditions such as Hong Kong’s Basic Law. The Basic Law ensured Hong Kong will retain its currency (the Hong Kong Dollar), legal system, parliamentary system, and people’s rights and freedom for fifty years from 1997. This agreement has given Hong Kong the freedom to function with a high degree of autonomy. The Special Administrative Region of Hong Kong is responsible for its domestic affairs, including, but not limited to, the judiciary and courts of last resort, immigration, and customs, public finance, currencies, and extradition. Hong Kong continues using the English common law system. However, if the PRC government attempts to alter its agreement to allow Hong Kong to function autonomously, this could potentially impact Hong Kong’s common law legal system and may in turn bring about uncertainty in, for example, the enforcement of our contractual rights. This could, in turn, materially and adversely affect our Operating Subsidiary’s business and operations. Additionally, intellectual property rights and confidentiality protections in Hong Kong may not be as effective as in the United States or other countries. Accordingly, we cannot predict the effect of future developments in the Hong Kong legal system, including the promulgation of new laws, changes to existing laws or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, or the pre-emption of local regulations by national laws. These uncertainties could limit the legal protections available to us, including the ability to enforce agreements with the customers.

Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system, including uncertainties regarding the enforcement of laws, and sudden or unexpected changes in laws and regulations in China could adversely affect us and limit the legal protections available to you and us.

The HK subsidiary was formed under and are governed by the laws of the HK, however, we may be subject to the uncertainties of PRC legal system. The PRC legal system is based on written statutes. Prior court decisions may be cited for reference, but have limited precedential value. In 1979, the PRC government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and regulations governing economic matters in general, such as foreign investment, corporate organization and governance, commerce, taxation and trade. As a significant part of our business is conducted in HK, our operations may be governed by PRC laws and regulations. However, since the PRC legal system continues to evolve rapidly, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involves uncertainties, which may limit legal protections available to us. In addition, some regulatory requirements issued by certain PRC government authorities may not be consistently applied by other PRC government authorities (including local government authorities), thus making strict compliance with all regulatory requirements impractical, or in some circumstances impossible. For example, we may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce the legal protection that we enjoy either by law or contract. However, since PRC administrative and court authorities have discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms, it may be more difficult to predict the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of legal protection we enjoy than in more developed legal systems. Furthermore, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules, some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all and may have retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of these policies and rules until sometime after the violation. Such uncertainties, including uncertainty over the scope and effect of our contractual, property (including intellectual property) and procedural rights, could materially and adversely affect our business and impede our ability to continue our operations.

Furthermore, if China adopts more stringent standards with respect to environmental protection or corporate social responsibilities, we may incur increased compliance costs or become subject to additional restrictions in our operations. Intellectual property rights and confidentiality protections in China may also not be as effective as in the United States or other countries. In addition, we cannot predict the effects of future developments in the PRC legal system on our business operations, including the promulgation of new laws, or changes to existing laws or the interpretation or enforcement thereof. These uncertainties could limit the legal protections available to us and our investors, including you. Moreover, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources and management attention.

If we and/or our subsidiaries were to be required to comply with cybersecurity, data privacy, data protection, or any other PRC laws and regulations related to data and we and/or our subsidiaries cannot comply with such PRC laws and regulations, our subsidiaries’ business, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

We may be subject to a variety of cybersecurity, data privacy, data protection, and other PRC laws and regulations related to data, including those relating to the collection, use, sharing, retention, security, disclosure, and transfer of confidential and private information, such as personal information and other data. These laws and regulations apply not only to third-party transactions, but also to transfers of information within our organization. These laws and regulations may restrict our subsidiaries’ business activities and require us and/or our subsidiaries to incur increased costs and efforts to comply, and any breach or noncompliance may subject us and/or our subsidiaries to proceedings against such entity(ies), damage our reputation, or result in penalties and other significant legal liabilities, and thus may materially and adversely affect our subsidiaries’ business and our financial condition and results of operations.

As the laws and regulations related to cybersecurity, data privacy, and data protection in mainland China where our subsidiaries do not have operations are relatively new and evolving, and their interpretation and application may be uncertain, it is still unclear if we and/or our subsidiaries may become subject to such new laws and regulations.

The PRC Data Security Law, or the Data Security Law, which was promulgated by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress on June 10, 2021 and took effect on September 1, 2021, 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. According to Article 2 of the Data Security Law, it applies to data processing activities within the territory of mainland China as well as data processing activities conducted outside the territory of mainland China which jeopardize the national interest or the public interest of China or the rights and interest of any PRC organization and citizens. Any entity failing to perform the obligations provided in the Data Security Law may be subject to orders to correct, warnings and penalties including ban or suspension of business, revocation of business licenses or other penalties. As of the date of this prospectus, we do not have any operation or maintain any office or personnel in mainland China, and we have not conducted any data processing activities which may endanger the national interest or the public interest of China or the rights and interest of any Chinese organization and citizens. Therefore, we do not believe that the Data Security Law is applicable to us.

On August 20, 2021, the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress of China promulgated the Personal Information Protection Law, which integrates the scattered rules with respect to personal information rights and privacy protection and took effect on November 1, 2021. According to Article 3 of the Personal Information Protection Law, it is applied not only to personal information processing activities carried out in the territory of mainland China but also to personal information processing activities outside the mainland China for the purpose of offering products or services to domestic natural persons in the territory of mainland China. The offending entities could be ordered to correct, or to suspend or terminate the provision of services, and face confiscation of illegal income, fines or other penalties. As our subsidiaries’ services are provided in Hong Kong, Cayman Islands, British Virgin Islands and the U.S. rather than in the mainland China to clients worldwide, including but not limited to clients of mainland China who visit our offices in these locations, we take the view that we and our subsidiaries are not subject to the Personal Information Protection Law.

On July 7, 2022, the Cyberspace Administration of China (the “CAC”) issued the Measures for Security Assessment of Outbound Data Transfer, or the Measures, which took effect on September 1, 2022. According to the Measures, in addition to the self-risk assessment requirement for provision of any data outside mainland China, a data processor shall apply to the competent cyberspace department for data security assessment and clearance of outbound data transfer in any of the following events: (i) outbound transfer of important data by a data processor; (ii) outbound transfer of personal information by an operator of critical information infrastructure or a data processor which has processed more than one million users’ personal data; (iii) outbound transfer of personal information by a data processor which has made outbound transfers of more than one hundred thousand users’ personal information or more than ten thousand users’ sensitive personal information cumulatively since January 1 of the previous year; (iv) such other circumstances where ex-ante security assessment and evaluation of cross-border data transfer is required by the CAC. As of the date of this prospectus, we and our subsidiaries have not collected, stored, or managed any personal information in mainland China. therefore, we believe that the Measures is not applicable to us.

However, given the recency of the issuance of the above PRC laws and regulations related to cybersecurity and data privacy, we and our subsidiaries still face uncertainties regarding the interpretation and implementation of these laws and regulations and we could not rule out the possibility that any PRC governmental authorities may subject us and/or our subsidiaries to such laws and regulations in the future. If they are deemed to be applicable to us and/or our subsidiaries, we cannot assure you that we and our subsidiaries will be compliant with such new regulations in all respects, and we and/or our subsidiaries may be ordered to rectify and terminate any actions that are deemed illegal by the PRC governmental authorities and become subject to fines and other government sanctions, which may materially and adversely affect our subsidiaries’ business and our financial condition and results of operations.

If we and/or our subsidiaries were to be required to obtain any permission or approval from or complete any filing procedure with the China Securities Regulatory Commission (the “CSRC”), the CAC, or other PRC governmental authorities in connection with the initial public offering (“IPO”) or future follow-on offerings under PRC laws, we and/or our subsidiaries may be fined or subject to other sanctions, and our subsidiaries’ business and our reputation, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

The Cybersecurity Review Measures jointly promulgated by the CAC and other relevant PRC governmental authorities on December 28, 2021 required that, among others, “critical information infrastructure” or network platform operators holding over one million users’ personal information to apply for a cybersecurity review before any public offering on a foreign stock exchange. However, this regulation is recently issued and there remain substantial uncertainties about its interpretation and implementation.

As of the date of this prospectus, we and our subsidiaries do not have any business operation or maintain any office or personnel in mainland China. We and our subsidiaries have not collected, stored, or managed any personal information in mainland China. Based on our inquiry with the China Cybersecurity Review Technology and Certification Center (the “CCRC”) and the assessment conducted by the management, we believe that we and our subsidiaries are not currently required to proactively apply to a cybersecurity review for our IPO or follow-on offerings overseas, on the basis that (i) our subsidiaries are incorporated in Hong Kong, the British Virgin Islands, and other jurisdictions outside of mainland China and operate in Hong Kong without any subsidiary or variable interest entities (“VIE”) structure in mainland China, and we do not maintain any office or personnel in mainland China; (ii) except for the Basic Law, the National Laws do not apply in Hong Kong unless they are listed in Annex III of the Basic Law and applied locally by promulgation or local legislation, and National Laws that may be listed in Annex III are currently limited under the Basic Law to those which fall within the scope of defense and foreign affairs as well as other matters outside the limits of the autonomy of Hong Kong, and PRC laws and regulations relating to data protection and cyber security have not been listed in Annex III as the date of this Prospectus; (iii) our data processing activities are solely carried out by our overseas entities outside of mainland China for the purpose of offering products or services in Hong Kong and other jurisdictions outside of mainland China; (iv) we and our subsidiaries do not control more than one millions users’ personal information as of the date of this Prospectus; (v) as of the date of this Prospectus, we and our subsidiaries have not received any notice of identifying us as critical information infrastructure from any relevant PRC governmental authorities; (vi) as of the date of this Prospectus, none of us or our subsidiaries have been informed by any PRC governmental authority of any requirement for a cybersecurity review; and (vii) based on our inquiry with the CCRC, the officer who provides cybersecurity review consultation service under CCRC believes that we are currently not required to apply to a cybersecurity review for our public offerings on a foreign stock exchange with the CAC because we neither currently have any operation in mainland China nor control more than one millions users’ personal information as of the date of this Prospectus. Additionally, we believe that we and our subsidiaries are compliant with the regulations and policies that have been issued by the CAC to date and there was no material change to these regulations and policies since our IPO. However, regulatory requirements on cybersecurity and data security in the mainland China are constantly evolving and can be subject to varying interpretations or significant changes, which may result in uncertainties about the scope of our responsibilities in that regard, and there can be no assurance that the relevant PRC governmental authorities, including the CAC, would reach the same conclusion as our PRC counsel. We will closely monitor and assess the implementation and enforcement of the Cybersecurity Review Measures. If the Cybersecurity Review Measures mandates clearance of cybersecurity and/or data security regulators and other specific actions to be completed by companies like us, we may face uncertainties as to whether we can meet such requirements timely, or at all.

On February 17, 2023, the CSRC promulgated the Trial Administrative Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (the “Trial Measures”) and five supporting guidelines, which took effect on March 31, 2023. The Trial Measures requires companies in mainland China that seek to offer and list securities overseas, both directly and indirectly, to fulfill the filing procedures with the CSRC. According to the Trial Measures, the determination of the “indirect overseas offering and listing by companies in mainland China” shall comply with the principle of “substance over form” and particularly, an issuer will be required to go through the filing procedures under the Trial Measures if the following criteria are met at the same time: (i) 50% or more of the issuer’s operating revenue, total profits, total assets or net assets as documented in its audited consolidated financial statements for the most recent accounting year are accounted for by companies in mainland China; and (ii) the main parts of the issuer’s business activities are conducted in mainland China, or its main places of business are located in mainland China, or the senior managers in charge of its business operation and management are mostly Chinese citizens or domiciled in mainland China. On the same day, the CSRC held a press conference for the release of the Trial Measures and issued the Notice on Administration for the Filing of Overseas Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies, which clarifies that (i) on or prior to the effective date of the Trial Measures, companies in mainland China that have already submitted valid applications for overseas offering and listing but have not obtained approval from overseas regulatory authorities or stock exchanges shall complete the filing before the completion of their overseas offering and listing; and (ii) companies in mainland China which, prior to the effective date of the Trial Measures, have already obtained the approval from overseas regulatory authorities or stock exchanges and are not required to re-perform the regulatory procedures with the relevant overseas regulatory authority or stock exchange, but have not completed the indirect overseas listing, shall complete the overseas offering and listing before September 30,2023, and failure to complete the overseas listing within such six-month period will subject such companies to the filing requirements with the CSRC.

Based on the assessment conducted by the management, we are not subject to the Trial Measures, because we are incorporated in the Cayman Islands and our subsidiaries are incorporated in Hong Kong, the British Virgin Islands and other regions outside of mainland China and operate in Hong Kong without any subsidiary or VIE structure in mainland China, and we do not have any business operations or maintain any office or personnel in mainland China. However, as the Trial Measures and the supporting guidelines are newly published, there exists uncertainty with respect to the implementation and interpretation of the principle of “substance over form”. As of the date of this prospectus, there was no material change to these regulations and policies since our IPO. If our offering, including the IPO and future follow-on offerings, and listing were later deemed as “indirect overseas offering and listing by companies in mainland China” under the Trial Measures, we may need to complete the filing procedures for our offering, including the IPO and future follow-on offerings, and listing. If we are subject to the filing requirements, we cannot assure you that we will be able to complete such filings in a timely manner or even at all.

Since these statements and regulatory actions are new, it is also highly uncertain in the interpretation and the enforcement of the above cybersecurity and overseas listing laws and regulation. There is no assurance that the relevant PRC governmental authorities would reach the same conclusion as us. If we and/or our subsidiaries are required to obtain approval or fillings from any governmental authorities, including the CAC and/or the CSRC, in connection with the listing or continued listing of our securities on a stock exchange outside of Hong Kong or mainland China, it is uncertain how long it will take for us and/or our subsidiaries to obtain such approval or complete such filing, and, even if we and our subsidiaries obtain such approval or complete such filing, the approval or filing could be rescinded. Any failure to obtain or a delay in obtaining the necessary permissions from or complete the necessary filing procedure with the PRC governmental authorities to conduct offerings or list outside of Hong Kong or mainland China may subject us and/or our subsidiaries to sanctions imposed by the PRC governmental authorities, which could include fines and penalties, suspension of business, proceedings against us and/or our subsidiaries, and even fines on the controlling shareholder and other responsible persons, and our subsidiaries’ ability to conduct our business, our ability to invest into mainland China as foreign investments or accept foreign investments, or our ability to list on a U.S. or other overseas exchange may be restricted, and our subsidiaries’ business, and our reputation, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

The Chinese government may intervene or influence our Chinese supplier and its exclusive overseas agent’s operations at any time, or may exert more control over how our PRC-based supplier operate their business or cooperate with us. This could result in a material change in our PRC-based supplier’s operations and indirectly the value of our Ordinary Shares.

We rely on one PRC-based sturgeon farm for our supply of caviar, with which we entered into supplier agreement through its exclusive overseas agent. The PRC government may choose to exercise significant oversight and discretion, and the policies, regulations, rules, and the enforcement of laws of the Chinese government to which our PRC-based supplier and its exclusive overseas agent is subject to may change rapidly and with little advance notice. As a result, the application, interpretation, and enforcement of new and existing laws and regulations in the PRC are often uncertain. In addition, these laws and regulations may be interpreted and applied inconsistently by different agencies or authorities, and may be inconsistent with our supplier or its exclusive overseas agent’s current policies and practices. New laws, regulations, and other government directives in the PRC may also be costly to comply with, and such compliance or any associated inquiries or investigations or any other government actions may:

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 our 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.

The PRC government may intervene or influence our PRC-based supplier’s operations at any time and may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and foreign investment in China-based companies, which may result in a material change in our PRC-based operations. Any legal or regulatory changes that restrict or otherwise unfavorably impact our PRC-based supplier’s 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 any new or more stringent measures are implemented, our supplier’s and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected, and the value of our Ordinary Shares could decrease or become worthless.

Changes and the downturn in the economic, political, or social conditions of Hong Kong, Mainland China and other countries or changes to the government policies of Hong Kong and Mainland China could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations.

Our operations are located in Hong Kong. Accordingly, our 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 Mainland China generally. Economic conditions in Hong Kong are sensitive to Mainland China and the global economic conditions. Any major changes to Hong Kong’s social and political landscape will have a material impact on our business.

The Mainland China 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 economy in the Mainland China has experienced significant growth over the past decades, growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. The PRC 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 Hong Kong and us.

Furthermore, on July 14, 2020, the former President of the U.S., Mr. Donald Trump, signed the Hong Kong Autonomy Act and an executive order to remove the preferential trade status of Hong Kong, pursuant to § 202 of the United States-Hong Kong Policy Act of 1992. The U.S. government has determined that Hong Kong is no longer sufficiently autonomous to justify preferential treatment in relation to the PRC, especially with the issuance of the Law of the People’s Republic of China on Safeguarding National Security in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the “Hong Kong National Security Law”) on July 1, 2020. Hong Kong will now be treated as Mainland China, in terms of visa application, academic exchange, tariffs and trading, etc. According to § 3(c) of the executive order issued on July 14, 2020, the license exception for exports and re-exports to Hong Kong and transfer within the PRC is revoked, while exports of defense items are banned. On the other hand, the existing punitive tariffs the U.S. imposed on the Mainland China will also be applied to Hong Kong exports. Losing its special status, Hong Kong’s competitiveness as a food trading hub may deteriorate in the future as its tax benefits as a result of preferential situation no longer exists and companies might prefer exporting through other cities. The level of activities of domestic exports and re-exports and other trading activities in Hong Kong may decline owing to the tariff being imposed on Hong Kong exports and the export restriction.

In the event that Hong Kong loses its position as a food trading hub in Asia, the demand for food export or re-export from Hong Kong and thus our business, financial conditions and results of operations, may be adversely affected. According to the Hong Kong Policy Act Report issued by the Department of State in 2021, 2022 and 2023, since July 2020, the suspension of an agreement concerning surrender of fugitive offenders and the terminations of an agreement concerning transfer of sentenced persons and an agreement concerning certain reciprocal tax exemptions, there were no terminations pursuant to § 202(d) of the United States-Hong Kong Policy Act of 1992 or determinations under § 201(b) up to the date of this registration statement. The executive order to remove the preferential trade status of Hong Kong remains in effect. Since July 2020 and as of the date of this registration statement, the removal of the preferential trade status of Hong Kong did not have a material impact on our business and operations.

Additionally, the outbreak of war in Ukraine in 2022 has already affected global economic markets, 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, European Union and other countries against Russia. 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 in this section. 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 the operations, results of operations, financial conditions, liquidity and business outlook of our business.

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

All of our operations are in Hong Kong. Accordingly, the business operations and financial conditions of our Operating Subsidiary will be affected by the political and legal developments 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 may adversely affect our operations. Given the relatively small geographical size of Hong Kong, any of such incidents may have a widespread effect on our business operations, which could in turn adversely and materially affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

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, namely, 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 political arrangement between PRC and Hong Kong and the economic, political and legal environment in Hong Kong in the future. Since all of our operations are based in Hong Kong, any change of such political arrangements may pose an immediate threat to the stability of the economy in Hong Kong, thereby directly and adversely affecting our results of operations and financial positions.

Based on certain recent development 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 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. 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.

Risks Related to our Business and Industry

We have a short operating history and are subject to risks and uncertainties associated with operating in a rapidly developing and evolving industry. Our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our business and prospects.

We established our caviar business in Hong Kong in August 2021 and have subsequently experienced rapid growth. We expect we will continue to expand as global market presence, broaden our product portfolio, enlarge our customer bases and explore new market opportunities. However, due to our limited operating history, our historical growth rate may not be indicative of our future performance. Our future performance may be more susceptible to certain risks than a company with a longer operating history in a different industry. Many of the factors discussed below could adversely affect our business and prospects and future performance, including:

You should consider our business and prospects in light of the risks and uncertainties we face as a fast growing company operating in a rapidly developing and evolving market. We may not be successful in addressing the risks and uncertainties listed above, among others, which may materially and adversely affect our business and prospects and future performance.

We materially rely on Fujian Aoxuanlaisi Biotechnology Co., Ltd (“Fujian Aoxuanlaisi”), the exclusive distributor of a PRC sturgeon farm, as our major supplier for the supply of caviar raw product. Such arrangement materially and adversely exposes us to unique risk. Any disruption in the supplier’s relationships, either between Fujian Aoxuanlaisi and the PRC sturgeon farm, or between Fujian Aoxuanlaisi and us, could have a material adverse effect on our business. Any disruption in the provision of caviar from Fujian Aoxuanlaisi or PRC sturgeon farm and our inability to identify alternative caviar supplier may materially and adversely affect our business operations and financial results.

We materially rely on Fujian Aoxuanlaisi, the agent and distributor of a PRC sturgeon farm, as our supplier for caviar raw product. For years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, our procurement from the PRC sturgeon farm, through Fujian Aoxuanlaisi, amounted to approximately US$6.2 million and US$5.3 million, respectively, representing approximately 64.3% and 90% of our total purchases for the corresponding year. Before April 2022, we obtain all of the caviar raw product supply from Fujian Aoxuanlaisi on an as-demand per order basis, without any long-term agreement. In April 2022, our Operating Subsidiary, Top Wealth Group (International) Limited, has entered into the Caviar Sales Agreement with Fujian Aoxuanlaisi, the agent and distributor of Fujian Longhuang Biotech Co., Limited (“Fujian Longhuang”), a PRC sturgeon farm. Pursuant to the Caviar Sales Agreement between Fujian Aoxuanlaisi and Top Wealth Group (International) Limited, by way of Power of Attorney, Fujian Aoxuanlaisi appointed Top Wealth Group (International) Limited, our Operating Subsidiary, as its exclusive distributor in Hong Kong and Macau for conducting overseas distribution and granted us the rights to procure caviar directly from it for a term of 10 years, from 30 April 2022 to 30 April 2032.

Such arrangement materially and adversely exposes us to unique risk. Our business relies heavily on a stable and adequate supply of caviar from the Fujian Aoxuanlaisi, which ultimately depends on the stable and adequate supply of caviar from Fujian Longhuang, the PRC sturgeon farm, to Fujian Aoxuanlaisi, the PRC sturgeon farm’s distributor. If our business relationships with Fujian Aoxuanlaisi is interrupted or terminated, or if for any reason Fujian Aoxuanlaisi became unable or unwilling to continue to provide raw product caviar to us, these would likely lead to a material interruption of our operation or suspension in our ability to obtain caviar supply or fulfilling customer order, until we found another supplier that could supply our product. Furthermore, if the business relationships between Fujian Aoxuanlaisi and Fujian Longhuang are interrupted or terminated, it would also likely lead to a material interruption of our operation or suspension of our ability to obtain caviar supply or fulfilling customer order. Although Fujian Aoxuanlaisi and Fujian Longhuang maintain a long-term exclusive sales agreement for 15 years, from December 2020 to December 2035, whether their relationship may be interrupted or terminated is beyond our control. There are no also assurances that our Caviar Sales Agreement with Fujian Aoxuanlaisi renewed on commercially favorable terms upon its expiration.

Any disruption in our supplier relationships, either between Fujian Aoxuanlaisi and Fujian Longhuang, or between Fujian Aoxuanlaisi and us, could have a material adverse effect on our business. Events that adversely affect our suppliers could impair our ability to obtain caviar inventory in the quantities that we desire. Such events include problems with our suppliers’ businesses, finances, labor relations, ability to obtain caviar, costs, production, quality control, insurance and reputation, as well as natural disasters, pandemics, or other catastrophic occurrences. A failure by any current or future supplier to comply with food safety, environmental or other laws and regulations, meet required timelines, and hire and retain qualified employees may disrupt our supply of products.

In the event of any early termination or non-renewal of the Caviar Sales Agreement with Fujian Aoxuanlaisi or any early termination or non-renewal of long-term exclusive sales agreement between Fujian Aoxuanlaisi and Fujian Longhuang, or in the event of any disruption, delay or inability on the part of with Fujian Aoxuanlaisi in making sufficient and quality supply to us, we cannot assure you that we would be able to identify alternative suppliers on commercially acceptable terms which may thereby result in material and adverse effects on our business, financial conditions and operating results. Failure to find a suitable replacement, even on a temporary basis, would have an adverse effect on our brand image, financial conditions, and the result of operations. Further, should there be any changes in the commercial terms of the Caviar Sales Agreement, especially to the effect that we could no longer act as the exclusive distributor of Fujian Aoxuanlaisi in Hong Kong and Macau, we may face an increase in competition, and we may not be able to continue to procure caviar from the PRC sturgeon farm on commercially acceptable terms.

If Fujian Aoxuanlaisi fails to deliver the caviar raw product we need on the terms we have agreed, we may be challenged to secure alternative sources at commercially acceptable prices or on other satisfactory terms, in a timely manner. Any extended delays in securing an alternative source could result in production delays and late shipments of our products to distributors and end-customers, which could materially and adversely affect our customer relationships, profitability, results of operations, and financial condition. If we experience significant increased demand for our products, there can be no assurance that additional supplies of caviar raw product will be available for us when required on acceptable terms, or at all, or that Fujian Aoxuanlaisi or any supplier would allocate sufficient capacity to us in order to meet our requirements, fill our orders in a timely manner or meet our strict quality standards. Even if our existing supplier is able to meet our needs or we are able to find new sources of caviar supply, we may encounter delays in production, inconsistencies in quality, and added costs. We are not likely to be able to pass increased costs to the customer immediately, if at all, which may decrease or eliminate our profitability in any period. Any delays or interruption in or increased costs of our supply of caviar could have a material and adverse effect on our ability to meet consumer demand for our products and result in lower net sales and profitability both in the short and long term.

Adverse weather conditions, natural disasters, disease, pests and other natural conditions, or shutdown, interruption, and damage to the PRC sturgeon farm, or lack of availability of power, fuel, oxygen, eggs, water, or other key components needed for the operations of the PRC sturgeon farm, could result a loss of a material percentage of our caviar raw product supply and a material adverse effect on our operations, business results, reputation, and the value of our brands.

Our ability to ensure a continuing supply of caviar raw product from our suppliers depends on many factors beyond our control. An interruption in the power, fuel, oxygen supply, water quality systems, or other critical infrastructure of an aquaculture facility for more than a short period of time could lead to the loss of a large number of sturgeon, hence the caviar supply. A shutdown of or damage to PRC sturgeon farm due to natural disaster, reduction in water supply, deterioration of water quality, contamination of aquifers, interruption in services, or human interference could result in a loss of supply of caviar for production. Sturgeon farming of the PRC sturgeon farm is vulnerable to adverse weather conditions, including severe rains, drought and temperature extremes, typhoon, floods and windstorms, which are quite common but difficult to predict. Sturgeon farms are vulnerable to disease and pests, which may vary in severity and effect, depending on the stage of production at the time of infection or infestation, the type of treatment applied and climatic conditions. Unfavorable growing conditions caused by these factors can reduce both sturgeon populations of our supplier and the quality of the sturgeon, and, in extreme cases, entire harvests may be lost. Additionally, adverse weather or natural disasters, including earthquakes, winter storms, droughts, or fires, could impact the manufacturing and business facilities of our supplier, which could result in significant costs and meaningfully reduce our capacity to fulfill orders and maintain normal business operations. These factors may result in lower sales volume and increased costs due increased costs of products. Incremental costs, including transportation, may also be incurred if we need to find alternate short-term supplies of products from alternative areas. These factors can increase costs, decrease revenues and lead to additional charges to earnings, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Climate change may have a long-term adverse impact on our business and operations.

Climate change may have an adverse impact on global temperatures, weather patterns, and the frequency and severity of extreme weather and natural disasters. In the event that climate change may a negative effect on sturgeon or caviar productivity of our supplier, we may be subject to decreased availability or less favorable pricing for caviar raw product or other commodities that are necessary for our products. Extreme weather conditions may adversely impact the sturgeon farm or facilities of our supplier, lead to the disruption of distribution networks or the availability and cost of key raw materials used by us in production, or the demand for our products. As a result of climate change, our caviar suppliers or their suppliers are highly rely on the availability and quality of water, and could be materially and adversely impacted by to decreased availability of water, deteriorated quality of water or less favorable pricing for water, which could adversely impact their production and thus our operations and sales, profitability, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business is affected by the quality and quantity of the caviar that is harvested by the PRC sturgeon farm.

Our ability to successfully sell our product and the price therefor, is highly dependent on the quality of the caviar supplied by the PRC sturgeon farm operated by Fujian Longhuang. A number of factors can negatively affect the quality of the caviar sold, including the quality of the broodstock, water conditions in the farm, the food and additives consumed by the fish, population levels in the farm, and the amount of time that it takes to bring a sturgeon to harvest, including transportation and processing, all of which are beyond our control. Optimal growing conditions cannot always be assured. Furthermore, if our caviar product supplied by the PRC sturgeon farm is perceived by the market to be of lower quality than other available sources, we may experience reduced demand for our product and may not be able to sell our products at the prices that we expect or at all. As we continue to expand our operations and to establish relationship with new sturgeon farms, we potentially may face additional challenges with maintaining the quality of our products. We cannot guarantee that we will not face quality issues in the future, any of which could cause damage to our reputation, and a loss of consumer confidence in our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business results and the value of our brands.

Caviar as the luxury food items, any real or perceived quality or food safety concerns or failures to comply with applicable food regulations and requirements, whether or not ultimately based on fact and whether or not involving us (such as incidents involving our competitors), could cause negative publicity and reduced confidence in our company, brand or products, which could in turn harm our reputation and sales, and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Although we believe we have a rigorous quality control process, there can be no assurance that our products will always comply with the standards set for our products.

Additionally, we have no control over our products once purchased by consumers. Accordingly, consumers may store our products improperly or for long periods of time, which may adversely affect the quality and safety of our products. While we have procedures in place to handle consumer questions and complaints, there can be no assurance that our responses will be satisfactory to consumers, which could harm our reputation. If consumers do not perceive our products to be safe or of high quality as a result of such actions outside our control or if they believe that we did not respond to a complaint in a satisfactory manner, then the value of our brand would be diminished, and our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected. Any loss of confidence on the part of consumers in our products or in the safety and quality of our products would be difficult and costly to overcome. Any such adverse effect c may significantly reduce our brand value. Issues regarding the safety of any of our products, regardless of the cause, may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We operate in a highly regulated industry.

Wild sturgeon is one the most critically endangered species worldwide. Since 1998, international trade in all species of sturgeons has been regulated under Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (“CITES”) owing to concerns over the impact of unsustainable harvesting of and illegal trade in sturgeon populations in the wild. The CITES listing of all species of sturgeon means that caviar, the unfertilized sturgeon roe, from wild-caught sturgeon can no longer be traded, but caviar from captive bred sturgeon is exempt.

As a supplier of captive bred caviar, which is not only a food product intended for human consumption, but also a product that is regulated worldwide under the CITES, we are therefore subject to extensive governmental regulation. We must comply with various laws and regulations in Hong Kong as well as laws and regulations administered by government entities and agencies outside Hong Kong. Both the PRC and Hong Kong are parties to CITES. Pursuant to the Protection of Endangered Species of Animals and Plants Ordinance (Chapter 586 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (the “PESO”), the importation, introduction from the sea, exportation, re-exportation and possession or control of specified endangered species of animals and plants, along with parts and derivatives of those species, are regulated under the PESO. Schedule 1 to the PESO sets out a list of species and categorizes them into different appendices which are regulated with varying degrees of control under the PESO. Sturgeons are included as regulated species under the PESO. For further details on the regulations applicable to us and our business, please refer to the section titled “Regulations”.

With respect to our importation of caviar from the PRC sturgeon farm into Hong Kong, the PRC sturgeon farm is responsible for applying for and obtaining CITES permit from the relevant regulatory authority in the PRC; whereas the supply chain management company is responsible for applying for and obtaining import license from the Director of Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department of Hong Kong on our behalf. The CITES permit needs to be submitted to the customs of HK before the caviar is accepted to HK territories. As of the date of this prospectus, the PRC sturgeon farm, through its distributor for overseas market, possesses the requisite import and export qualification and permit in the PRC. We have obtained all required CITES permits as well as the export and re-export license in respect of each batch of caviar exported to Hong Kong. With respect to our exportation of caviar from Hong Kong to foreign countries, we have engaged the supply chain management company to apply for and obtain re-export license from the Director of Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department of Hong Kong on our behalf.

In the event that the PRC sturgeon farm or we were found to be in violation of the relevant laws and regulations in respect of CITES, and such violations materially impacted the ability of the PRC sturgeon farm or us to continue to export caviar, our business operation will be significantly disturbed, and our business, financial conditions, results of operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

We confirm that all the required CITES permits and export and re-export licenses required for our business operation have been received. To ensure third party compliance with the applicable permitting and licensing requirements, we have employed the following control measures:

In the event that that the PRC sturgeon farm fails to obtain the required CITES permits, the shipment may experience delay in clearance, seized by authorities or returned. In the event that the supply chain management company fails to obtain the required re-export license on our behalf, we may face prosecution, fine and forfeiture of our products. In such events our business, financial conditions, our results of operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected by the disruption of supply and the failure to export. Furthermore, the relevant laws, regulations and rules are subject to modification and change. We cannot predict the impact that any such change would have on the caviar industry generally or on our business in particular. Any legislative or regulatory change that imposes further restriction on, among other things, the production, processing, import or export of caviar, could disrupt our supply of caviar or increase our compliance costs, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

In addition to PESO and CITES, as a food supplier, we are also subject to law and regulations regarding product manufacturing, food safety, required testing, and appropriate labeling and marketing of our products in Hong Kong or overseas. It is possible that such laws and regulations the governing bodies or the interpretation thereof may change over time. As such, there is a risk that our products could become non-compliant with the relevant governing bodies laws or regulations and any such non-compliance could harm our business. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements could result in, among other things, administrative, civil, or criminal penalties or fines, mandatory or voluntary product recalls, warning, cease orders against operations, closure of facilities or operations, the loss, revocation, or modification of any existing licenses, permits, registrations, or approvals or the failure to obtain additional licenses, permits, registrations, or approvals in new jurisdictions where we intend to do business, any of which could negatively affect our business, reputation, financial condition, and results of operations.

We are subject to the risks associated with sourcing and manufacturing products from, and selling our product outside of Hong Kong, which could adversely affect our business.

Our direct purchases from non-Hong Kong suppliers represented substantially all of our raw material purchases in the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and we expect we will continue to do so. Furthermore, although substantially all of our distributors are in Hong Kong, from our understanding, significant portion of our product are sold overseas by our distributors. We may also in the future enter into agreements with distributors in foreign countries to sell our products. All of these activities are subject to the uncertainties associated with international sales and distribution, including:

We expect each market to have particular regulatory and funding hurdles to overcome, and future developments in these markets, including the uncertainty relating to governmental policies and regulations, could harm our business. If we expend significant time and resources on expansion plans that fail or are delayed, our reputation, business and financial condition may be adversely affected.

Our operations, revenue and profitability could be adversely affected if we fail to adhere to Hong Kong and international regulations to which we are subject to, or due to the changes in laws and regulations in the countries where we do business.

We source the caviar from the sturgeon farm in the PRC. Furthermore, we substantially rely on the third-party distributors to place and export our products into the overseas market from Hong Kong. Therefore, we along with our suppliers and distributors may be subject to a variety of Hong Kong and foreign laws and government regulations applicable to food products and caviar trade, including numerous licensing requirements, trade and pricing practices, tax, environmental matters, food safety and other laws and regulations relating to the sourcing, manufacturing, storing, labeling, marketing, advertising, selling, displaying, transporting, distributing and usage of our products in in Hong Kong and outside the Hong Kong in markets in which we source caviar or which our products may be stored, distributed, marketed, transported or sold.

The governments of countries into which we source raw product or our distributors sell our caviar products, from time to time, may consider regulatory proposals relating to raw materials, tax, food safety and quality, markets, and environmental regulations, which, if adopted, could lead to disruptions in distribution of our products, which, in turn, could affect our profitability. Furthermore, we are not able to control or monitor the markets or jurisdictions where our distributors place or sell our products, and we do not have any agreements or understandings with our distributors regarding the distribution of our product in the foreign market. Therefore, there are significant uncertainty as to the foreign laws and regulations in markets or jurisdictions where we, or our product, may be subject to. The compliance with these highly uncertain, new, evolving, or revised tax, environmental, food quality and safety, labeling or other laws or regulations, or new, evolving, or changed interpretations or enforcement of existing laws or regulations, may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.

Changes in legal or regulatory requirements, such as new food safety requirements and revised labeling regulations, or evolving interpretations, of existing legal or regulatory requirements, may result in increased compliance costs, capital expenditures, and other financial obligations that could adversely affect our business or financial results. If we are found in violation of the applicable laws and regulations in markets where our distributors sell our product, we could be subject to civil remedies, including fines, injunctions, termination of necessary licenses or permits, or recalls, as well as potential criminal sanctions, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business. Even if regulatory agency review does not result in these types of determinations, it could potentially create negative publicity or perceptions which could harm our business or reputation. Further, modifications to international trade policy, including the imposition of increased or new tariffs, quotas, or trade barriers, could have a negative impact on us or the industries we serve, including as a result of related uncertainty, and could materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition, operating results, and cash flows.

In addition, our international sales could be adversely affected by violations of the anti-money laundering and trade sanction laws and similar anti-corruption and international trade laws. Misconducts, including illegal, fraudulent or collusive activities, by our distributors, suppliers, business partners, or our agent may harm our brand and reputation and adversely affect our business and results of operations. It is not always possible to identify and deter such misconduct, and the precautions we take to detect and prevent these activities may not be effective. Violations of laws or allegations of such violations, regardless in Hong Kong or in foreign countries where our suppliers are located or our distributors operate, could materially and adversely affect our reputation, disrupt our business and result in a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition. Our growth strategy depends in part on our ability to expand our operations globally. Competition in various markets is increasing as our competitors grow their global operations and low-cost local manufacturers expand and improve their production capacities. However, certain markets may have greater political, economic, and currency volatility and greater vulnerability to infrastructure and labor disruptions than more established markets. If we cannot successfully manage associated political, economic, and regulatory risks, our product sales, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

There is no assurance that our customers will continue to place purchase orders with us.

All of our customers place purchase orders with us on an as-needed basis. We normally enter into distributorship agreement with our F&B related distributor customers for a term of one year. During the contract term, our F&B related distributor customers are entitled to place purchase orders with us for each of our products at the unit price, which is typically agreed at a fixed price per kilogram, set forth in the distributorship agreement. There is no assurance that our F&B related distributor customers will renew the framework sales agreement with us with similar terms and conditions.

Further, all of our customers place purchase orders with us on an as-needed basis. There is no assurance that our major customers will continue to place purchase orders with us in the future. In the event that any of our major customers ceases to place purchase orders with us, reduces the amount of their purchase orders with us, or requests for more favorable terms and conditions, our business, results of operations, financial conditions and future prospects may be adversely affected.

Our four and three largest customers accounted for a significant portion of our total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

We derive a substantial portion of our revenue from a limited number of major customers, all of which are our distributors. For the year ended December 31, 2022, there were four customers each generated over 10% of our total revenue for the year, and they in aggregate accounted for approximately 82.6% of our total revenue for the year. One of these four customers is our related party and all of our transactions with such related party have been ceased after December 31, 2022. Our top five customers are Sunfun (China) Limited, accounting for 37.4% of our sales volume, Channel Power Limited, accounting for 17.7% of sales volume, Beauty and Health International Company Limited, accounting for 15% of sales volume, Beauty and Health International E-Commerce Limited, accounting for 12.5% of our sales volume, and Mother Nature Health (HK) Limited, accounting for 9.4% of our sales volume. For the year ended December 31, 2023, there were three customers each generating over 10% of our total revenue for the period, and they in aggregate accounted for approximately 75.5% of our sales volume. Our top three customers for the year ended December 31, 2023 are, Mother Nature Health (HK) Limited, accounting for 34.5% of our sales volume in the period, Sunfun (China) Limited, accounting for 25.0% of our sales volume, A One Marketing Limited accounting for 16.5% of our sales volume.

There is no assurance that any of our major customers will continue to place purchase orders with us in the future. These distributors or any other large customers in the future, may take actions that affect us for reasons it cannot anticipate or control, such as their financial condition, changes in their business strategy or operations, the perceived quality of our products and the availability of competing products. There can be no assurance our customers will continue to purchase its products in the same quantities or on the same terms as in the past. Our major customers rarely provide us with firm, long-or short-term volume purchase commitments. As a result, our customers could significantly decrease or cease their business with us with limited or no notice, and we could have periods with limited orders for our products while still incurring costs related to workforce maintenance, marketing general corporate expenses and other overheads. We may not find new customers to supplement its revenue in periods when it experiences reduced purchase orders, or recover fixed costs incurred during those periods, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In the event that any of these major customers ceases to place purchase orders with us or reduces the amount of their purchase orders with us, our business, results of operations, financial condition and future prospects may be adversely affected.

Any inability to resolve a significant dispute with any of our key customers, a change in the business condition (financial or otherwise) of any of our key customers, even if unrelated to us, or the loss of or a reduction in sales or anticipated sales to one or more of our most significant distributors may negatively affect us. These major customers may seek to leverage their positions to improve their profitability by demanding improved efficiency, lower pricing, more favorable terms, increased promotional spend, or specifically tailored product or promotional offerings, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. A reduction in sales to one or more major customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We rely on third-party distributors to place our products into the market and we may not be able to control our distributors.

Our customers primarily and substantially consist of the distributors in food and beverage industry, where their end customers are luxurious hotels and restaurants. As we substantially sell and distribute our products through distributors, any one of the following events could result in fluctuation or decline in our revenue and could result in material adverse impact on our financial conditions and results of operations:

We may not be able to successfully manage our distributors. If the sales volume of our caviar products to consumers are not maintained at a satisfactory level, our distributors may not place or lower their purchase orders placed with us. For international markets, we depend exclusively on third-parties distributor to reach the end-customers. Our success in these markets depends almost entirely upon the efforts of our distributors and logistics and fulfillment partners, over whom we have little or no control. If a distributor or logistics or fulfillment partner, fails to fulfill its contracted services, for any reason, we could lose sales and our ability to compete in that market may be adversely affected. The occurrence of any of these factors could result in a significant decrease in the sales volume of our products and therefore adversely affect our financial conditions and results of operations.

Product contamination and the failure to maintain food safety and consistent quality could have a material and adverse effect on our brand, business and financial performance.

Food safety and quality control are of paramount importance to our reputation and business, and we face an inherent risk of food contamination and liability claims. To ensure food safety and quality, we have established a comprehensive set of standards and requirements covering each facet of our supply chain, ranging from procurement, logistics, warehousing to packaging as detailed in the section titled “Business — Quality Control.” However, due to the rapid growth in scale of our operations, there is no assurance that our quality control systems will prove to be effective at all times, or that we can identify any defects in our quality control systems in a timely manner. The sale of products for human use and consumption involves the risk of injury or illness to the end-consumers. Such injuries may result from inadvertent mislabeling, tampering by unauthorized third parties, product contamination or spoilage, the presence of foreign objects, substances, chemicals, or residues introduced during the packing, storage, handling or transportation phases. Any food contamination that we fail to detect or prevent could adversely affect the quality of our caviar products, which could lead to liability claims, and the imposition of penalties or fines by relevant authorities.

Furthermore, any instances of food contamination or regulatory noncompliance, whether or not caused by our actions, could compel us, our suppliers, our distributor or our other customers, depending on the circumstances, to recall or withdraw products, suspend production of our products, or cease operations. in accordance with the laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate our business or distribute our products. Food recalls could result in significant losses due to their associated costs, the destruction of product inventory, lost sales due to the unavailability of the product for a period of time and potential loss of existing distributors or customers and a potential negative impact on our ability to attract new customers and maintain our current customer base due to negative consumer experiences or because of an adverse impact on our brand and reputation. In addition, as a caviar supplier, our product may be subject to targeted, large-scale tampering as well as to opportunistic, individual product tampering. Forms of tampering could include the introduction of foreign material, chemical contaminants and pathological organisms into consumer products as well as product substitution. Food business operators like us, or our distributors, must at all stages of production, sales and distribution within the businesses under their control ensure that foods satisfy the requirements of food related laws and regulations, in particular as to food safety. If we or our distributors do not adequately address the possibility, or any actual instance, of product tampering, we could face possible seizure or recall of our products and the imposition of civil or criminal sanctions, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Even if a situation does not necessitate a recall or market withdrawal, product liability claims might be asserted against us. While we are subject to governmental inspection and regulations and believe our facilities and those of our suppliers, supply-chain management company, logistic service providers, and the distributors will comply in all material respects with all applicable laws and regulations, there can be no assurance that our caviar supplier, logistic service provider, and distributors will always be able to adopt appropriate quality control systems and meet our quality control requirements in respect of the products or services they provide. Any failure of our caviar supplier, logistic service provider, or distributor to provide satisfactory products or services could harm our reputation and adversely impact our operations. If the consumption of any of our products causes, or is alleged to have caused, a health-related illness or death to a consumer, we may become subject to claims or lawsuits relating to such matters. Even if a product liability claim is unsuccessful or is not fully pursued, the negative publicity surrounding any assertion that our products caused illness or physical harm could cause consumers to lose confidence in the safety and quality of our products.

Furthermore, we currently do not maintain any product liability insurance and may not have adequate resources to satisfy a judgment in the event of a successful product liability claim against us. The successful assertion of product liability claims against us could result in potentially significant monetary damages and require us to make significant payments.

Our business depends to a significant extent upon general economic conditions, consumer demand, preferences and discretionary spending patterns.

Our success is, and will continue to be, dependent on our ability to select, source and sell quality caviar products. However, there is no assurance that we will always succeed in selecting and sourcing quality caviar supplies that cater to the preferences and needs of consumers or achieve anticipated sales at competitive prices.

Through our distributors customers, which mainly are food and beverage distributors, our caviar products are sold and served at places such as high-end restaurants, fine dining establishments, private clubs, hotels, caterers and specialty food stores, our business is significant exposed to the volatility of the general economic conditions and reductions in disposable income levels and discretionary consumer spending. Consumers’ willingness to purchase our caviar products may fluctuate as a result of changes in national, regional or global economic conditions, disposable income, discretionary spending, lifestyle choices, public perception of caviar, publicity of our caviar products or our competitors. Future economic conditions such as employment levels, business conditions, housing, interest rates, inflation rates, energy and fuel costs and tax rates could reduce consumer spending or change consumer purchasing habits. The demand for our caviar products may be adversely affected from time to time by economic downturns.

If the weak economy continues for a prolonged period of time or worsens, the consumers may choose to spend discretionary money less frequently which could result in a decline in consumers’ purchases of luxury food items, particularly in more expensive restaurants or more expensive food items, and, consequently, the businesses of our target customers by, among other things, reducing the frequency with which our customers’ customers choose to order luxury food items or the amount they spend on meals while dining out. If our customers’ sales decrease, our profitability could decline. Moreover, if the negative economic conditions persist for an extended period of time, consumers might ultimately make long-lasting changes to their discretionary spending behavior, including dining out less frequently on a permanent basis. Accordingly, adverse changes to consumer preferences or consumer discretionary spending, each of which could be affected by many different factors which are out of our control, could harm our business, financial condition or results of operations. Our continued success will depend in part upon our ability to anticipate, identify and respond to changing economic and other conditions and the impact that they may have on discretionary consumer spending. If we fail to successfully adapt our business strategy, brand image and product portfolio to changes in market trends or shifts in consumer preferences and spending patterns, our business, financial conditions and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

Failure to compete effectively may adversely affect our market share and profitability.

The industry we operate in is competitive with respect to, among other things, brand recognition, consistent quality, services and prices. Our competitors include a variety of regional, national and international caviar suppliers. Furthermore, new competitors may emerge from time to time, which may further intensify the competition. Increased competition may reduce our margins and market share and impact brand recognition, or result in significant losses. When we set prices, we have to consider how competitors have set prices for the same or similar products. When they cut prices or offer additional benefits to compete with us, we may have to lower our own prices or offer additional benefits or risk losing market share, either of which could harm our financial conditions and results of operations.

Some of our current or future competitors may have longer operating histories, greater brand recognition, better supplier relationships, larger customer bases, more comprehensive distribution network, better access to consumers, higher penetration in certain regions or greater financial, technical or marketing resources than we do. In addition, some of our competitors may be able to secure more favorable terms from suppliers, devote greater resources to marketing and promotional campaigns, adopt more aggressive pricing policies and devote substantially more resources to secure more caviar supplies or to their digitalized supply chain management system. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors, and competitive pressures may have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial conditions and results of operations.

Our ability to effectively compete will depend on various factors, including expansion of our global market presence, enhancement of our sales and marketing activities, expansion of product portfolio and customer base. Failure to successfully compete may prevent us from increasing or sustaining our revenue and profitability and potentially lead to a loss of market share, which could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial conditions and results of operations.

Our business depends significantly on the market recognition of our trademarks and brand names. Any damage to our trademarks, brand names or reputation, or any failure to effectively promote our brands, could materially and adversely impact our business and results of operations.

We believe that the market recognition of our trademarks and brand names among our customers have contributed significantly to the growth and success of our business. Therefore, maintaining and enhancing the recognition and image of our brands is critical to our ability to differentiate our caviar products and to compete effectively. Nevertheless, whether we are able to maintain and enhance the recognition and image of our brands is subject to our ability in:

In the event consumers perceive or experience a reduction in the quality of our products or service, or consider in any way that we fail to deliver quality products consistently, our brand value could suffer, which could have a material and adverse effect on our business.

Furthermore, our established brand recognition may attract imitators who intentionally use highly similar trademarks, trade names and/or logos with ours to mislead potential consumers, which may significantly harm our reputation and brand image, thereby causing a decline in our financial performance, reduction in our market share, as well as an increase in the amount of resources for our anti-counterfeiting efforts. We cannot assure you that our measures will provide effective prevention and any infringement act could adversely affect our reputation, results of operations and financial condition.

We may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual properties, or we may be subject to intellectual property infringement claims or other allegations by third parties, either of which could adversely affect our business and operations.

We rely on a combination of trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets and other intellectual property laws to protect our trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights. As at the date of this prospectus, we have registered trademarks in Hong Kong, Macau and the PRC, respectively.

We cannot ensure that third parties will not infringe our intellectual property rights. We may, from time to time, have to initiate litigation, arbitration or other legal proceedings to protect our intellectual property rights. Regardless of the judgment, such process would be lengthy and costly as well as divert management’s time and attention, thereby resulting in material and adverse impacts on our business, financial conditions and results of operations.

Conversely, there is also a risk that third parties may bring a claim against us for infringing their intellectual property rights, thereby requiring us to defend or settle any related intellectual property infringement allegations or disputes. Defending against such claims could be costly, and if we are unsuccessful in defending such claims, we may be prohibited from continuing to use such proprietary information in the future, or may be compelled to pay damages, royalties or other expenses for the use of such proprietary information. Any of the above could negatively affect our sales, profitability, business operations and prospects.

Failure by our supply chain service or transportation providers or distributors to deliver our raw materials to us or our products to customers on time or at all could result in lost sales.

Historically and as of the date of prospectus, we have engaged Sunfun (China) Limited (“Sunfun China”), a supply chain management company in Hong Kong as the principal transportation provider for the delivery of finished products to our distributors and the shipment of caviar to our food processing factory through cold-chain. Our utilization of the third-party supply chain and transportation services is subject to risks, including the effects of health epidemics or pandemics or other contagious outbreaks, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, any shortage of drivers and workers, increases in fuel prices, which would increase our shipping costs, employee strikes, labor shortages, failure to meet customer standards, and severe weather conditions and natural disasters such as fires, floods, typhoon, storms, or earthquakes. These risks may impact the ability of Sunfun China or other supply chain and transportation services providers to provide logistics and transportation services that adequately meet our shipping needs. If Sunfun China or other supply chain and transportation services providers were to fail to deliver raw materials to us in a timely manner, or fail to deliver our products to our customers in a timely manner, we might be unable to meet customer and consumer demands for our products.

Furthermore, notwithstanding we have implemented comprehensive set of operation manual and technical protocols with respect to temperature, hygiene and physical conditions for caviar in transit, we cannot assure you that Sunfun China or any other supply chain management company we may engage would follow strictly, and the services provided by the supply chain management company may be interrupted, suspended or cancelled due to unforeseen events, which could cause the rotting of our caviar products and increase our loss rate.

Although we do not rely on Sunfun China for transportation services, and Sunfun China’s transportation and supply chain services is provided on an as-needed basis, Sunfun has been historically and currently responsible for a significant portion of our shipping needs. Any disruption in our relationship with Sunfun China or the ability of Sunfun China to fulfill its services could affect our business. We may change to other third-party transportation providers at any time, but we could incur costs and expend resources in connection with such change, and we may not be able to obtain terms as favorable as those we receive from Sunfun China, which in turn would increase our costs and adversely affect our business. Any failure of Sunfun China or other third-party transportation provider to deliver raw materials or finished products in a timely manner could harm our reputation, negatively impact our customer relationships, and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

For our international markets, we depend exclusively on the distributors to reach our customers. Our success in these markets depends entirely upon the efforts of our distributors and their logistics and fulfillment services supplier, over whom we have no control. If a distributor or logistics or fulfillment service provider, fails to fulfill its contracted services, for any reason, we could lose sales and our ability to compete in that market may be adversely affected.

Our caviar products are processed in our single food processing facility and any damage to or disruption at this facility would materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.

We process substantially all of our products at a single food processing factory leased from and operated by Sunfun China, the supply chain management service provider we have engaged since 2021. Any facility disruption, equipment failures, natural disaster, fire, power interruption, pandemic, work stoppage (such as due to a COVID-19 outbreak or otherwise), regulatory or food safety issue or other problem at this facility would significantly disrupt our ability to process and deliver our products and operate its business. The facility and equipment is costly and may require substantial time to replace or repair if necessary. During such time, we may not be able to find suitable factory to replace the output from our facility on a timely basis or at a reasonable cost, if at all. We may also experience facility shutdowns or periods of reduced production because of regulatory issues, equipment failure or delays in deliveries. Any such disruption or unanticipated event may cause significant interruptions or delays in our business. Any disruption in the operation of our facility, or damage to a material amount of our equipment or inventory, would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We do not own any real properties. The lease agreement for our food processing factory has a term of 18 months and may be renewed upon mutual agreement. The current lease with Sunfun China commenced from September 11, 2024 and until March 31, 2026. There is no assurance that such tenancy agreement will not be terminated before its expiration or will be renewed on commercially favorable terms. In the event that the tenancy agreement is terminated or not renewed, our business and operation may be interrupted and adversely affected as we will have to relocate our food processing factory to other premises. In the event that we fail to relocate our food processing factory to suitable alternative premises in a timely manner or at all, our business operations, financial position, results of operations and reputation would be adversely affected. Even if we are able to relocate our food processing factory to an alternative premises, such relocation will incur relocation costs, which may be substantial and in turn adversely affect our financial conditions. Besides, in the event that our rental expenses for the food processing factory increase, our operating expenses will increase which will in turn materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and prospects.

We currently rely on third-party supply chain management company to operate the food processing factory and provision of labor for product packaging. Any failure to adequately store, maintain and deliver our products could materially adversely affect our business, reputation, financial condition, and operating results.

Our ability to adequately process, store, maintain, and deliver our caviar products is critical to our business. We contract with third-party supply chain management company, to operate of our food processing factory and to provide labor for packaging and delivery services for our products. As of the date of Prospectus, we have contracted Sunfun China to operate the aforesaid activities on our behalf. In order to maintain the quality, safety and freshness of our caviar products, the food processing factory is equipped with temperature control system that mandates a prescribed temperature range. Any unexpected and adverse changes in the optimal storage conditions of our food processing factory may expedite the deterioration of such products and in turn heighten the risk of inventory obsolescence or exposure to litigation matters. Any failure by Sunfun China or the third-party supply chain management business partner to adequately store, maintain, or transport our products could negatively impact the safety, quality and merchantability of our products and the experience of our customers. The occurrence of any of these risks could materially adversely affect our business, reputation, financial condition, and operating results. In the event of extended power outages, labor disruptions, natural disasters or other catastrophic occurrences, failures of the temperature control system systems in the food processing factory, warehouses or delivery vehicles, or other circumstances, our inability to store inventory at the controlled temperatures could result in significant product inventory losses, as well as increased risk of food-borne illnesses and other food safety incidents.

Further, we rely on the supply chain management company for the provision of labor for carrying out product packaging at our food processing factory. There is no guarantee that the supply chain management company will be able to supply stable labor force or continue to supply labor at fees acceptable to us or our relationship with them could be maintained in the future. Any disruption, delay or inability of the supply chain management company in supplying processing labor to us may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial conditions and prospects.

There is no assurance that the quality of works provided by the processing labor from the supply chain management company can fulfil the requirements of us or our customers. We may not be able to monitor the performance of the processing staff supplied by the supply chain management company as directly and efficiently as with our own labor, thereby exposing us to the risks associated with non-performance, late performance or sub-standard performance of the processing staff. Since we remain accountable to our customers for the performance of the processing staff, we may incur additional costs or be subject to liability under the relevant contracts between us and our customers for the processing staff’s unsatisfactory performance, thereby resulting in material adverse impacts on our reputation, business operation and financial position.

Failure to maintain and renew the food factory license for our food processing factory premises may materially and adversely our business and results of operations.

Pursuant to section 31(1) of the Food Business Regulation (Chapter 132X of the Laws of Hong Kong) (“FBR”), no person shall carry on or cause, permit or suffer to be carried on any food factory business except under and in accordance with a food factory license from the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department of Hong Kong (the “FEHD”), which is required for the food business involving the preparation of food for sale for human consumption off the premises.

The FEHD may grant a provisional food factory license to a new applicant who has fulfilled the basic requirements in accordance with the FBR pending fulfilment of all outstanding requirements for the issue of a full food factory license. A provisional food factory licenses is valid for a period of six months or lesser and a full food factory license is valid generally for a period of one year, both subject to payment of the prescribed license fees and continuous compliance with the requirements under the relevant legislation and regulations. A provisional food factory license is renewable once and a full food factory license is renewable annually.

We have leased a food processing factory located in Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong from the supply chain management company for carrying out the packaging and labelling of our caviar products. The food processing factory has obtained a full food factory license from the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department of Hong Kong which is essential for food business involving the preparation of food for sale for human consumption off the premises. The license is valid for one year from April 18, 2024 to April 17, 2025, subject to further renewal. In compliance with the FBR, we rely on the landlord of our food processing factory premises to apply for, maintain and renew the food factory license from the FEHD for the operation of our food processing factory premises. There is no assurance that our food processing factory premises will obtain the required food factory license. If we or the landlord fails to comply with the applicable requirements or any required conditions, the food factory license may be suspended, cancelled or denied renewal upon its expiry, which could result in disruption to our ongoing business and thereby materially and adversely affect our business, financial position, results of operations and prospects. We may also be liable to fines and/or other legal consequences for failure to obtain the necessary approvals, licenses and permits, which may materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Failure to manage our inventory effectively could increase our loss rate, lower our profit margins, or cause us to lose sales, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial conditions and results of operations.

Managing our inventory effectively is critical to the success of our business. Since caviar is perishable in nature, if we fail to manage our inventory effectively, we may be subject to a heightened risk of inventory obsolescence, a decline in inventory values, and significant inventory write-downs or write-offs. Moreover, we may be required to lower sale prices in order to reduce inventory level, which may lead to lower gross margins. These factors may materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial conditions. Further, we are exposed to inventory risks as a result of a variety of factors beyond our control, including changes in consumer preferences or economic conditions, uncertainty of market acceptance of new caviar products, etc. We cannot assure you that there will not be under-stocking or over-stocking of inventory.

We are subject to credit risk in relation to the collectability of our trade receivables from customers.

We generally grant a credit period of 30 to 60 days to our customers. We cannot assure you that our customers will make payment in full to us on a timely basis. Delays in receiving payments from or non-payment by our customers may result in pressure on our cash flow position and our ability to meet our working capital requirements. Our liquidity and cash flows from operations may be materially and adversely affected if our collection periods lengthen further or if we encounter any material defaults of payment, or provisions for impairment, of our trade receivables from customers. Should these events occur, we may be required to obtain working capital from other sources, such as from third-party financing, in order to maintain our daily operations, and such financing from outside sources may not be available at acceptable terms or at all.

We may not be able to maintain our historical growth rates or gross profit margins, and our operating results may fluctuate significantly. If our results fall below market expectations, the trading price of our Ordinary Shares may be affected.

We have experienced significant growth in our revenue and gross profit in the past years. We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain our revenue growth or gross profit margins at historical levels, or at all. Moreover, our operating results may fluctuate significantly as a result of numerous factors, many of which are outside of our control. These factors include, among others:

Any negative publicity regarding our Company, management team, employees or products, regardless of its veracity, could adversely affect our business.

As a fast-growing supplier of luxury caviar products, our image is highly relevant to the public’s perception of us as a business in entirety, which includes not only the quality, safety and competitiveness of our products, but also our corporate management and culture. We cannot guarantee that no one will, intentionally or incidentally, distribute information about us, especially regarding the quality and safety of our products or our internal management matters, which may result in negative perception of us by the public. Any negative publicity about us, management team, employees or products, regardless of veracity, could lead to potential loss of consumer confidence or difficulty in retaining or recruiting talent that is essential to our business operations. As a result, our business, financial conditions, results of operations, reputation and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

We may incur higher costs in connection with our branding and marketing efforts, and some marketing campaigns may not be effective in attracting or retaining consumers.

We are dedicated to enhancing our brand awareness. As part of our sales and marketing efforts, we have proactively participated in food expo and set up pop-up stores across the world. We have also collaborated with famous food bloggers and used different online platforms and media coverage to promote and strengthen the publicity of our products. We regularly invite chefs of notable hotels and restaurants to our tasting events. However, we cannot guarantee that our marketing efforts will be well received by customers and result in higher sales. In addition, marketing trends and approaches in the caviar market are evolving, which requires us to enhance our marketing approaches and experiment with new marketing methods to keep pace with industry developments and consumer preferences. Failure to refine our marketing approaches or to adopt new, more cost-effective marketing techniques could negatively affect our business, growth prospects and results of operations.

We have limited insurance to cover our potential losses and claims.

We purchase and maintain insurance policies that we believe are customary with the standard commercial practice in our industry and as required under the relevant laws and regulations. However, we cannot guarantee that our insurance policies will provide adequate coverage for all the risks in connection with our business operations. Consistent with customary practice in the caviar industry, we do not carry any business interruption, product liability, or litigation insurance. If we were to incur substantial losses and liabilities that are not covered by our insurance policies, we could suffer significant costs and diversion of our resources, which could have a material and adverse effect on our financial conditions and results of operations. We may be required to bear our losses to the extent that our insurance coverage is insufficient.

We are subject to risks relating to litigation and disputes, which could adversely affect our business, prospects, results of operations and financial conditions, and may face significant liabilities as a result.

We may be subject to litigation, disputes or claims of various types brought by our competitors, suppliers, customers, employees, business partners, lenders or other third parties. We cannot assure you that we will not be subject to disputes, complaints or legal proceedings in the future, which may damage our reputation, evolve into litigations or otherwise have a material adverse impact on our reputation and business.

Should any future claims against us fall outside the scope and/or limit of insurance coverage, our financial position may be adversely affected. Regardless of the merits, legal proceedings can be time-consuming and costly, and may divert our management’s attention away from our business operation, thereby adversely affecting our business operation and financial position. Legal proceedings which result in unfavorable judgment against us may cause financial losses and damages to our reputation, thereby materially and adversely affecting our business, financial position, results of operations and prospect.

Our business and reputation may be affected by product liability claims, litigation, complaints or adverse publicity in relation to our products.

As the caviar products we sell are for human consumption, there is an inherent health risk which may result from tampering by unauthorized third parties, or product contamination or degeneration, including the presence of foreign contaminants, chemicals, substances or other agents or residues during the various stages of farming, processing and transportation.

Litigation and complaints from consumers or government authorities concerning product quality, health or other issues may affect our industry as a whole and may cause consumers to avoid consuming the caviar products that we sell. Any litigation or adverse publicity surrounding any of these allegations may negatively affect our businesses, regardless of whether the allegations are true, thereby discouraging consumers from buying our products. We may also become party to various other lawsuits, claims, and other legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business, which may include lawsuits, claims, or other legal proceedings relating to the marketing and labeling of products or brand, intellectual property, contracts, product recalls or withdrawals, employment matters, environmental matters, or other aspects of our business. Even when lawsuits, claims, and other legal proceedings are not merited, the defense of lawsuits and claims divert the attention of management and other personnel and may result in adverse publicity about our products and brand, and we may incur significant expenses in defending these lawsuits and claims. In connection with claims, litigation or other legal proceedings, we may be required to pay damage awards or settlements or become subject to injunctions or other equitable remedies, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flows, or results of operations. Certain claims may not be covered by insurance or certain covered claims may exceed applicable coverage limits, or one or more of our insurance carriers could become insolvent. The outcome of litigation is often difficult to predict and the outcome of pending or future litigation may have a material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flows, or results of operations. Adverse publicity about regulatory or legal action against us or adverse publicity about our products (including the resources needed to produce them) could damage our reputation and brand image, undermine consumer confidence, and reduce demand for our products, even if the regulatory or legal action is unfounded or not material to our operations or even if the adverse publicity regarding our products is unfounded.

Moreover, unfavorable studies or media reports (including those regarding the health impact of caviar) may have a negative impact on the public perception of caviar, whether or not the claims are accurate. We cannot guarantee that our products will not cause any health-related illnesses or injury in the future, or that we will not be subject to claims or litigation relating to such matters. If any of the above were to occur, our sales could be negatively impacted, which could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial conditions, results of operation and prospects.

We may not be able to obtain finance from time to time to fund our operations and maintain growth.

In order to fund our operations and maintain our growth or expand our business, we may need to obtain future funding including equity financing or banking facilities from our banks from time to time. However, we may face the limitation of not having sufficient amount of security or pledge to secure additional debt financing. Further, there may be occasions where we are unable to obtain financing at commercial terms favorable or acceptable to us or at all. If these circumstances arise, our business, results of operations, and growth could be compromised.

Our growth prospects may be limited if we do not successfully implement our future plans and growth strategy.

Our growth is based on assumptions of future events which include (a) the continuous growth in the caviar industry; (b) our ability in further expanding our global market presence; (c) our ability in strengthening our sales and marketing activities; (d) expansion in our sources of caviar as well as product portfolio; and (e) expansion in our customer base. Furthermore, our future business plans may be hindered by other factors that are beyond our control, such as competition within the caviar industry and market conditions. Therefore, there is no assurance that any of our future business plans will materialize within the planned timeframe, or that our objectives will be fully or partially accomplished.

Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks and challenges which we may encounter in various stages of the development of our business. If the assumptions which underpin our future plans prove to be incorrect, our future plans may not be effective in enhancing our growth, in which case our business, financial conditions and results of operations may be adversely affected.

We may grow, in part, through acquisitions, which involve various risks, and we may not be able to identify or acquire companies consistent with our growth strategy or successfully integrate acquired businesses into our operations.

We may intend to pursue opportunities to expand our business by acquiring other companies in the future. Acquisitions involve risks, including those relating to:

Acquisitions also may affect our short-term cash flow and net income as we expend funds, potentially increase indebtedness and incur additional expenses. If we are not able to identify or acquire companies consistent with our growth strategy, or if we fail to successfully integrate any acquired companies into our operations, we may not achieve anticipated increases in revenue, cost savings and economies of scale, our operating results may actually decline and acquired goodwill and intangibles may become impaired.

We are dependent on our senior management team and other key employees, and the loss of any such personnel could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial conditions.

We believe that our performance and success is, to a certain extent, attributable to the extensive industry knowledge and experience of our key executives and personnel. Our continued success is dependent, to a large extent, on the ability to attract and retain the services of the key management team. However, competition for key personnel in our industry is intense. We may not be able to retain the services of our directors or other key personnel, or attract and retain high-quality personnel in the future. If any of our key personnel departs from us, and we are not able to recruit a suitable replacement with comparable experience to join us on a timely basis, our business, operations and financial conditions may be materially and adversely affected.

Acts of God, acts of war, epidemics and other disasters could materially and adversely affect our business.

Our business is subject to the general and social conditions in Hong Kong, the PRC and other jurisdictions in or to which our caviar products are grown, produced, distributed or consumed. Natural disasters, epidemics, acts of God and other disasters that are beyond our control could adversely affect the economy, infrastructure and livelihood of the people of such jurisdictions. Our business, results of operations and financial conditions could be adversely affected if these natural disasters occur. Moreover, political unrest, wars and terrorist attacks may cause damage or disruption to us, our employees, suppliers or customers, any of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial conditions or share price. Potential war or threat of terrorist attacks may also cause uncertainty and cause our business to suffer in ways that we cannot currently predict. We cannot control the occurrence of these catastrophic events and our business operations will at the times be subject to the risks of these uncertainties.

Any future occurrence of force majeure events, natural disasters or outbreaks of contagious diseases, including the COVID-19 outbreak, may materially and adversely affect our business, financial conditions and results of operations.

Any future occurrence of force majeure events, natural disasters or outbreaks of epidemics and contagious diseases, including avian influenza, severe acute respiratory syndrome, H1N1 influenza, Ebola virus and the recent COVID-19 outbreak in Hong Kong, the PRC and other jurisdictions in or to which our caviar products are grown, produced, distributed or consumed may materially and adversely affect our business, financial conditions and results of operations. An outbreak of an epidemic or contagious disease or other adverse public health developments in the world could result in a widespread health crisis and restrict the level of business activities in affected areas, which may, in turn, materially and adversely affect our business.

Since late 2019, the outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus named COVID-19 has resulted in a high number of fatalities and materially and adversely affected the global economy. Widespread lockdowns, closure of work places, restrictions on mobility and travel were implemented by governments of different countries to contain the spread of the virus.

We cannot assure you that any future occurrence of natural disasters or outbreaks of epidemics and contagious diseases, or the measures taken by the government of different countries in response to such contagious diseases will not seriously disrupt our operations or those of our customers or suppliers, which may materially and adversely affect our business, financial conditions and results of operations.

Technology failures or security breaches could disrupt our operations and negatively impact our business.

In the normal course of business, we rely on information technology systems to process, transmit, and store electronic information. For example, we utilize information technology to communicate with the supplier, logistic services provider, and distributors, and to manage our production and distribution facilities and inventory. Information technology systems are also integral to the reporting of our results of operations. Furthermore, a significant portion of the communications between, and storage of personal data of, our personnel, customers, and suppliers depend on information technology, including social media platforms.

Our information technology systems may be vulnerable to a variety of interruptions due to events beyond our control, including, but not limited to, natural disasters, terrorist attacks, telecommunications failures, computer viruses, hackers, and other security issues. These events could compromise our confidential information, impede, or interrupt our business operations, and may result in other negative consequences, including remediation costs, loss of revenue, litigation and reputational damage. Furthermore, if a breach or other breakdown results in disclosure of confidential or personal information, we may suffer reputational, competitive and/or business harm. While we have implemented administrative and technical controls and taken other preventive actions to reduce the risk of cyber incidents and protect our information technology, they may be insufficient to prevent physical and electronic break-ins, cyber-attacks, or other security breaches to our computer systems, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Failure to comply with cybersecurity, data privacy, data protection, or any other laws and regulations related to data may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We may be subject to a variety of cybersecurity, data privacy, data protection, and other laws and regulations related to data, including those relating to the collection, use, sharing, retention, security, disclosure, and transfer of confidential and private information, such as personal information and other data. These laws and regulations, such as the Data Protection Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands, apply not only to third-party transactions, but also to transfers of information within our organization, which relates to our investors, employees, contractors and other counterparties. These laws and regulations may restrict our business activities and require us to incur increased costs and efforts to comply, and any breach or non-compliance may subject us to proceedings against us, damage our reputation, or result in penalties and other significant legal liabilities, and thus may materially and adversely affect our business, financial conditions, and results of operations.

Fluctuations in exchange rates could result in foreign currency exchange losses, which may adversely affect our financial conditions, results of operations and cash flows.

We sourced our caviar from the PRC, hence a substantial portion of our purchases were denominated in RMB. Meanwhile, the sales to our customers were billed and settled in HKD. Therefore, we are exposed to foreign exchange risks. The value of HKD against RMB and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other factors, the policies of the PRC government and changes in the PRC’s and international political and economic conditions. As we did not enter into any formal hedging policy, foreign currency exchange contracts or derivative transactions, we are exposed to foreign currency fluctuations. Any appreciation or depreciation of RMB relative to HKD would affect our financial results.

Further, it is difficult to predict how market forces or Hong Kong, Mainland China, the U.S. or other government policies may impact the exchange rate among HKD, RMB, USD and other currencies in the future. Moreover, fluctuation in the exchange rate will affect the relative value of earnings from and the value of any foreign currency-denominated investments we make in the future. Should we face significant volatility in these foreign exchange rates and we cannot procure any specific foreign exchange control measures to mitigate such risks, our results of operations and financial performance shall be adversely affected.

We may be affected by the currency peg system in Hong Kong.

Since 1983, Hong Kong dollars have been pegged to the US dollars at the rate of approximately HKD7.8 to USD1.0. We cannot assure you that this policy will not be changed in the future. If the pegging system collapses and HKD suffer devaluation, the HKD cost of our expenditures denominated in foreign currency may increase. This would in turn adversely affect the operations and profitability of our business.

Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure

You may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through U.S. courts may be limited, because we are incorporated in the Cayman Islands.

We are an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. We conduct our operations outside the United States and substantially all of our assets are located outside the United States. In addition, substantially all of our directors and executive officers named in this prospectus reside outside the United States, and most of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon our Directors or officers or to enforce judgments obtained in the United States courts against our Directors and officers. For further information regarding the relevant laws of the Cayman Islands and Hong Kong, please refer to the section titled “Regulations”.

Our corporate affairs are governed by our memorandum and articles of association (as may be amended from time to time), the Companies Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands (the “Companies Act”) and the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take action against our directors, actions by our minority shareholders and the fiduciary duties of our Directors to us under the Cayman Islands laws 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 the English common law, which has persuasive, but not binding authority, on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary duties of our directors under the Cayman Islands laws may not be 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 standing to initiate a shareholder derivative action in a federal court of the United States.

We have been advised by our Cayman Islands legal counsel, Ogier, that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the Cayman Islands would:

There is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, although the courts of the Cayman Islands will in certain circumstances recognize and enforce a foreign judgment, without any re-examination or re-litigation of matters adjudicated upon, provided such judgment:

Subject to the above limitations, in appropriate circumstances, a Cayman Islands court may give effect in the Cayman Islands to other kinds of final foreign judgments such as declaratory orders, orders for performance of contracts and injunctions.

Shareholders of Cayman Islands companies like us have no general rights under the Cayman Islands laws to inspect corporate records, other than the memorandum and articles of association and any special resolutions passed by such companies, and the registers of mortgages and charges of such companies or to obtain copies of lists of shareholders of these companies. Our directors have discretion under our memorandum and articles of association (as may be amended from time to time) to determine whether or not, and under what conditions, our corporate records may be inspected by our shareholders, but are not obliged to make them available to our shareholders. This may make it more difficult for you to obtain the information needed to establish any facts necessary for a shareholder motion 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, differ significantly from requirements for companies incorporated in other jurisdictions such as the United States. Currently, we do not plan to rely on home country practice with respect to our corporate governance. However, if we choose to follow the Cayman Islands’ practice in the future, 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, public shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by our management, members of our board of directors, or our Controlling Shareholders than they would as public shareholders of a company incorporated in the United States. For a discussion of significant differences between the provisions of the Companies Act and the laws applicable to companies incorporated in the United States and their shareholders, please refer to the section titled “Description of Share Capital — Differences in Corporate Law”.

Cayman Islands economic substance requirements may have an effect on our business and operations.

Pursuant to the International Tax Cooperation (Economic Substance) Act, 2018 of the Cayman Islands, or the ES Act, that came into force on January 1, 2019, a “relevant entity” is required to satisfy the economic substance test set out in the ES Act. A “relevant entity” includes an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands as is our Company. Based on the current interpretation of the ES Act, we believe that our Company is a pure equity holding company since it only holds equity participation in other entities and only earns dividends and capital gains. Accordingly, for so long as our Company is a “pure equity holding company”, it is only subject to the minimum substance requirements, which require us to (i) comply with all applicable filing requirements under the Companies Act; and (ii) has adequate human resources and adequate premises in the Cayman Islands for holding and managing equity participations in other entities. However, there is no assurance that we will not be subject to more requirements under the ES Act. Uncertainties over the interpretation and implementation of the ES Act may have an adverse impact on our business and operations.

We rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our subsidiary to fund any cash and financing requirements we may have. In the future, funds may not be available to fund operations or for other use outside of Hong Kong, due to interventions in, or the imposition of restrictions and limitations on, our ability or our subsidiary by the PRC government to transfer cash. Any limitation on the ability of our subsidiary to make payments to us could have a material adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business and might materially decrease the value of our Ordinary Shares or cause them to be worthless.

We are a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands, and we rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our subsidiary for our cash and financing requirements, including the funds necessary to pay dividends and other cash distributions to our shareholders and service any debt we may incur. We do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We anticipate that we will retain any earnings to support operations and to finance the growth and development of our business. If any of the Operating Subsidiaries incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us. See “Dividend Policy” for more information.

We do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We anticipate that we will retain any earnings to support operations and to finance the growth and development of our business. If our Operating Subsidiary incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us.

Under the current practice of the Inland Revenue Department of Hong Kong, no tax is payable in Hong Kong in respect of dividends paid by us. The PRC laws and regulations do not currently have any material impact on transfers of cash from Top Wealth Group Holding Limited to our subsidiaries or from our subsidiaries to TW Cayman, our shareholders and U.S. investors. However, the Chinese government may, in the future, impose restrictions or limitations on our ability to transfer money out of Hong Kong, to distribute earnings and pay dividends to and from the other entities within our organization, or to reinvest in our business outside of Hong Kong. Such restrictions and limitations, if imposed in the future, may delay or hinder the expansion of our business to outside of Hong Kong and may affect our ability to receive funds from our subsidiary in Hong Kong. The promulgation of new laws or regulations, or the new interpretation of existing laws and regulations, in each case, that restrict or otherwise unfavorably impact the ability or way we conduct our business, could 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. To the extent any new or more stringent measures are required to be implemented, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected and such measured could materially decrease the value of our Ordinary Shares, potentially rendering them worthless.

Risks Related to our Ordinary Shares

This is a best-efforts offering, no minimum amount of securities is required to be sold and we may not raise the amount of capital we believe is required for our business plans. 

The placement agent has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit offers to purchase the securities being offered in this offering. The placement agent has no obligation to buy any of the securities from us or to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of the securities. There is no required minimum number of securities or amount of proceeds that must be sold as a condition to completion of this offering. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to the closing of this offering, the actual offering amount, placement agent fees and proceeds to us are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amounts set forth above. We may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us, and investors in this offering will not receive a refund in the event that we do not sell an amount of securities sufficient to fund for our operations as described in the “Use of Proceeds” section herein. Thus, we may not raise the amount of capital we believe is required for our operations in the short-term and even if we raise the maximum offering amount in this public offering, we will need to raise additional funds in the future, which may not be available or available on terms acceptable to us. 

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 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 would 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.

Our management has broad discretion to determine how to use the funds raised in this offering and may use them in ways that may not enhance our results of operations or the price of our Ordinary Shares.

To the extent (i) we raise more money than required for the purposes explained in the section titled “Use of Proceeds” or (ii) we determine that the proposed uses set forth in that section are no longer in the best interests of our Company, we cannot specify with any certainty the particular uses of such net proceeds that we will receive from our public offering. Our management will have broad discretion in the application of such net proceeds, including working capital, possible acquisitions, and other general corporate purposes, and we may spend or invest these proceeds in a way with which our shareholders disagree. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could harm our business and financial condition, fail to improve our results of operations, and/or fail to enhance the market price of our Ordinary Shares. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from our public offering in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value. As of the date of this prospectus, our management has not determined the types of businesses that the Company will target or the terms of any potential acquisition.

Our Ordinary Shares may be prohibited from being traded on a national exchange under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act if the PCAOB is unable to inspect our auditor. 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, which was signed into law on December 29, 2022, amending 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 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. The joint statement emphasized the risks associated with lack of access for the PCAOB to inspect auditors and audit work papers in China and higher risks of fraud in emerging markets.

On May 18, 2020, Nasdaq filed three proposals with the SEC to (i) apply a minimum offering size requirement for companies primarily operating in a “Restrictive Market”, (ii) adopt a new requirement relating to the qualification of management or board of directors for Restrictive Market companies, and (iii) apply additional and more stringent criteria to an applicant or listed company based on the qualifications of the company’s auditors.

On May 20, 2020, the U.S. Senate passed the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (“HFCAA”), 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 securities exchange or in the over-the-counter trading market in the U.S. On December 2, 2020, the U.S. House of Representatives approved the HFCAA. On December 18, 2020, the HFCAA was signed into law.

On March 24, 2021, the SEC announced that it had adopted interim final amendments to implement congressionally mandated submission and disclosure requirements of the HFCAA. The interim final amendments will apply to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report on Forms 10-K, 20-F, 40-F or N-CSR with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that the PCAOB has determined it is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in that jurisdiction. The SEC will implement a process for identifying such a registrant and any such identified registrant will be required to submit documentation to the SEC establishing that it is not owned or controlled by a governmental entity in that foreign jurisdiction, and will also require disclosure in the registrant’s annual report regarding the audit arrangements of, and governmental influence on, such a registrant.

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

On September 22, 2021, the PCAOB adopted a final rule implementing the HFCAA, which provides a framework for the PCAOB to use when determining, as contemplated under the HFCAA, whether the PCAOB 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 HFCAA. 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.

On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a report on its determinations that it 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 PRC authorities in those jurisdictions, which determinations were vacated on December 15, 2022.

On August 26, 2022, the PCAOB announced that it had signed a Statement of Protocol (the “SOP”) with the China Securities Regulatory Commission and the Ministry of Finance of China. The SOP, together with two protocol agreements governing inspections and investigations (together, the “SOP Agreement”), establishes 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.

On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB announced that it was able to secure complete access to inspect and investigate PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong completely in 2022. The PCAOB Board vacated its previous 2021 determinations that the PCAOB was unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong. However, whether the PCAOB will continue to be able to satisfactorily conduct inspections of PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong is subject to uncertainties and depends on a number of factors out of our and our auditor’s control. The PCAOB continues to demand complete access in mainland China and Hong Kong moving forward and is making plans to resume regular inspections in early 2023 and beyond, as well as to continue pursuing ongoing investigations and initiate new investigations as needed. The PCAOB has also indicated that it will act immediately to consider the need to issue new determinations with the HFCAA if needed.

Our auditor, Onestop Assurance PAC, the independent registered public accounting firm that issues the audit report for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, is currently subject to PCAOB inspections and the PCAOB is able to inspect our auditor. Onestop Assurance PAC, headquartered in Singapore, has been inspected by the PCAOB on a regular basis. Our auditor is not headquartered in mainland China or Hong Kong and was not identified in this report as a firm subject to the PCAOB’s determination. Therefore, we believe that, as of the date of this prospectus, our auditor is not subject to the PCAOB determinations.

Our ability to retain an auditor subject to PCAOB inspection and investigation, including but not limited to inspection of the audit working papers related to us, may depend on the relevant positions of U.S. and Chinese regulators. With respect to audits of companies with operations in China, such as the Company, there are uncertainties about the ability of our auditor to fully cooperate with a request by the PCAOB for audit working papers in China without the approval of Chinese authorities. Whether the PCAOB will be able to conduct inspections of our auditor, including but not limited to inspection of the audit working papers related to us, in the future is subject to substantial uncertainty and depends on a number of factors out of our, and our auditor’s, control. If our shares and shares are prohibited from trading in the United States, there is no certainty that we will be able to list on a non-U.S. exchange or that a market for our shares will develop outside of the United States. Such a prohibition would substantially impair your ability to sell or purchase our shares when you wish to do so, and the risk and uncertainty associated with delisting would have a negative impact on the price of our shares. Also, such a prohibition would significantly affect our ability to raise capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all, which would have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and prospects.

The trading price of our Ordinary Shares may be volatile, which could result in substantial losses to you.

From the closing of our initial public offering on April 19, 2024 to October 11, 2024, the trading price of our Ordinary Shares has ranged from $8.60 to $0.65 per Ordinary Share. The trading price of our Ordinary Shares can be volatile and could fluctuate widely due to factors beyond our control. This may happen due to broad market and industry factors, such as performance and fluctuation in the market prices or underperformance or deteriorating financial results of other listed companies based in Hong Kong and Mainland China. The securities of some of these companies have experienced significant volatility since their initial public offerings, including, in some cases, substantial price declines in the trading price of their securities. The trading performances of other Hong Kong and Chinese companies’ securities after their offerings may affect the attitudes of investors towards Hong Kong-based, U.S.-listed companies, which consequently may affect the trading performance of our Ordinary Shares, regardless of our actual operating performance. In addition, any negative news or perceptions about inadequate corporate governance practices or fraudulent accounting, corporate structure or matters of other Hong Kong and Chinese companies may also negatively affect the attitudes of investors towards Hong Kong and Chinese companies in general, including us, regardless of whether we have conducted any inappropriate activities. Furthermore, securities markets may from time to time experience significant price and volume fluctuations that are not related to our operating performance, which may have a material and adverse effect on the trading price of our Ordinary Shares.

In addition to the above factors, the price and trading volume of our Ordinary Shares may be highly volatile due to multiple factors, including the following:

Any of these factors may result in large and sudden changes in the volume and price at which our Ordinary Shares will be traded.

Recently, there have been instances of extreme stock price run-ups followed by rapid price declines and strong stock price volatility with a number of recent initial public offerings, especially among companies with relatively smaller public floats. As a relatively small-capitalization company with relatively small public float, we may experience greater stock price volatility, extreme price run-ups, lower trading volume and less liquidity than large-capitalization companies. In particular, our Ordinary Shares may be subject to rapid and substantial price volatility, low volumes of trades and large spreads in bid and ask prices. Such volatility, including any stock-run up, may be unrelated to our actual or expected operating performance, financial conditions or prospects, making it difficult for prospective investors to assess the rapidly changing value of our Ordinary Shares.

In addition, if the trading volumes of our Ordinary Shares are low, persons buying or selling in relatively small quantities may easily influence prices of our Ordinary Shares. This low volume of trades could also cause the price of our Ordinary Shares to fluctuate greatly, with large percentage changes in price occurring in any trading day session. Holders of our Ordinary Shares may also not be able to readily liquidate their investment or may be forced to sell at depressed prices due to low volume trading. Broad market fluctuations and general economic and political conditions may also adversely affect the market price of our Ordinary Shares. As a result of this volatility, investors may experience losses on their investment in our Ordinary Shares. A decline in the market price of our Ordinary Shares also could adversely affect our ability to issue additional shares of Ordinary Shares or other securities and our ability to obtain additional financing in the future. No assurance can be given that an active market in our Ordinary Shares will develop or be sustained. If an active market does not develop, holders of our Ordinary Shares may be unable to readily sell the shares they hold or may not be able to sell their shares at all.

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 conditions and results of operations.

An active trading market for our Ordinary Shares may not be maintained 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 maintained. If an active public market for our Ordinary Shares is not maintained, the market price and liquidity of our Ordinary Shares may be materially and adversely affected. The public offering price for our Ordinary Shares in the public offering was determined by negotiation between us and the placement agent based upon several factors, and we can provide no assurance that the trading price of our Ordinary Shares after the public 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 shares.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, 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 depend in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. If research analysts do not establish and maintain adequate research coverage or if one or more of the analysts who covers us downgrades our Ordinary Shares or publishes inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, the market price for our Ordinary Shares would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of the Company or fail to publish reports on us regularly, 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.

As a public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the listing requirements of Nasdaq, and other applicable securities rules and regulations. As such, meeting these requirements may strain our resources and divert management’s attention.

As a public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the listing requirements of Nasdaq, and other applicable securities rules and regulations. Despite recent reforms made possible by the JOBS Act, compliance with these rules and regulations will increase our legal, accounting, and financial compliance costs and investor relations and public relations costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming, or costly, and increase demand on our systems and resources, particularly after we are no longer an “emerging growth company.” The Exchange Act requires, among other things, that we file annual and current reports with respect to our business and operating results as well as proxy statements.

As a result of disclosure of information in the Form 20-F and in filings required of a public company, our business and financial condition are more visible, which we believe may result in threatened or actual litigation, including by competitors and other third parties. If such claims are successful, our business and operating results could be harmed, and even if the claims do not result in litigation or are resolved in our favor, these claims, and the time and resources necessary to resolve them, could divert the resources of our management and adversely affect our business, brand and reputation and results of operations.

Being a public company and these new rules and regulations will make it more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our board of directors, particularly to serve on our audit committee and compensation committee, and qualified executive officers.

If we cannot satisfy, or continue to satisfy, the continued listing requirements and other rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market, specifically, Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), as we’ve received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq on July 30, 2024, our securities may be delisted, which could negatively impact the price of our securities and your ability to sell them.

Our securities are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. We cannot assure you that our securities will continue to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. In order to maintain our listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, we are required to comply with certain rules, including those regarding minimum stockholders’ equity, minimum share price, minimum market value of publicly held shares, and various additional requirements. Even if we initially meet the listing requirements and other applicable rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market, we may not be able to continue to satisfy these requirements and applicable rules. If we are unable to satisfy the criteria for maintaining our listing, our securities could be subject to delisting.

On July 30, 2024, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Staff (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC notifying the Company that it failed to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 over the previous 30 consecutive business days. If we do not comply with the Nasdaq rules in the future, Nasdaq will provide notice that the Company’s Ordinary Shares will be subject to delisting. The Rules provide the Company a compliance period of 180 calendar days in which to regain compliance. If at any time during this 180 day period the closing bid price of the Company’s security is at least $1 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, the Staff will provide written confirmation of compliance. The Company would then be entitled to appeal that determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel. There can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.

If our securities are subsequently delisted from trading, we could face significant consequences, including:

Our Board of Directors may refuse or delay the registration of the transfer of Ordinary Shares in certain circumstances.

Except in connection with the settlement of trades or transactions entered into through the facilities of a stock exchange or automated quotation system on which our Ordinary Shares are listed or traded from time to time, our Board of Directors may resolve to refuse or delay the registration of the transfer of our Ordinary Shares. Where our directors do so, they must specify the reason(s) for this refusal or delay in a resolution of the board of directors. Our directors may also refuse or delay the registration of any transfer of Ordinary Shares if the transferor has failed to pay an amount due in respect to those Ordinary Shares. If our directors refuse to register a transfer, they shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, send the transferor and the transferee a notice of the refusal or delay in the approved form.

This, however, will not affect market transactions of the Ordinary Shares purchased by investors in a public offering. Where the Ordinary Shares are listed on a stock exchange, the Ordinary Shares may be transferred without the need for a written instrument of transfer, if the transfer is carried out in accordance with the rules of the stock exchange and other requirements applicable to the Ordinary Shares listed on the stock exchange.

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

Sales of substantial amounts of our Ordinary Shares in the public market, 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. On July 2, 2024, we filed the registration statement on Form F-1 with the SEC (File No. 333-280654) (as amended, the “Resale Prospectus”), which was declared effective on July 23, 2024, for 6 existing shareholders of the Company to register their existing shareholding of an aggregate of 6,840,000 Ordinary Shares to be sold pursuant to the Resale Prospectus. Together with the 2,000,000 Ordinary Shares sold in our initial public offering completed, the 6,840,000 Ordinary Shares registered for the 6 existing shareholders are freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and 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 the applicable lock-up agreements. We cannot predict what effect, if any, market sales of securities held by our significant shareholders or any other shareholder or the availability of these securities for future sale will have on the market price of our Ordinary Shares.

Because the amount, timing, and whether or not we distribute dividends at all is entirely at the discretion of our Board of Directors, you must rely on price appreciation of our Ordinary Shares for return on your investment.

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 the 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. 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 deemed relevant 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. We cannot assure you that our Ordinary Shares will appreciate in value or even maintain the price at which you purchased the Ordinary Shares. You may not realize a return on your investment in our Ordinary Shares and you may even lose your entire investment in our Ordinary Shares.

Because we are a foreign private issuer and are exempt from certain Nasdaq corporate governance standards applicable to U.S. issuers, you will have less protection than you would have if we were a domestic issuer.

The Nasdaq Listing Rules require listed companies to have, among other things, a majority of its board members be independent. As a foreign private issuer, however, we are permitted to, and we may follow home country practice in lieu of the above requirements. The corporate governance practice in our home country, the Cayman Islands, does not require a majority of our board to consist of independent directors. In addition, the Nasdaq Listing Rules also require U.S. domestic issuers to have a compensation committee, a nominating/corporate governance committee and an audit committee. We, as a foreign private issuer, are not subject to these requirements. The Nasdaq Listing Rules may require shareholder approval for certain corporate matters, such as requiring that shareholders be given the opportunity to vote on all equity compensation plans and material revisions to those plans, certain ordinary share issuances. We intend to comply with the corporate governance requirements of the Nasdaq Listing Rules. However, we may, in the future, consider following home country practice in lieu of the requirements under the Nasdaq Listing Rules with respect to certain corporate governance standards which may afford less protection to investors.

Although as a foreign private issuer we are exempt from certain corporate governance standards applicable to U.S. issuers, if we cannot satisfy, or continue to satisfy, the initial listing requirements and other rules of Nasdaq, our securities may be delisted, which could negatively impact the price of our securities and your ability to sell them.

In order to maintain our listing on Nasdaq, we will be required to comply with certain rules of Nasdaq, including those regarding minimum stockholders’ equity, minimum share price, minimum market value of publicly held shares, and various additional requirements. Even if we initially meet the listing requirements and other applicable rules of Nasdaq, we may not be able to continue to satisfy these requirements and applicable rules. If we are unable to satisfy the criteria of Nasdaq for maintaining our listing, our securities could be subject to delisting, which would have a negative effect on the price of our Ordinary Shares and impair your ability to sell your shares.

If Nasdaq does not list our securities, or subsequently delists our securities from trading, we could face significant consequences, including:

If we cease to qualify as a foreign private issuer, we would be required to comply fully with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act applicable to U.S. domestic issuers, and we would incur significant additional legal, accounting and other expenses that we would not incur as a foreign private issuer.

We qualify as a foreign private issuer. As a foreign private issuer, we will be exempt from the rules under the Exchange Act prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and our officers, directors and principal shareholders will be exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we will not be required under the Exchange Act to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. domestic issuers, and we will not be required to disclose in our periodic reports all of the information that U.S. domestic issuers are required to disclose. We may cease to qualify as a foreign private issuer in the future, and consequently, we would be required to fully comply with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act applicable to U.S. domestic issuers, and we would incur significant additional legal, accounting and other expenses that we would not incur as a foreign private issuer.

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

As a Cayman Islands company to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, we are subject to the Nasdaq Capital Market listing standards. However, the Nasdaq Capital Market rules permit a foreign private issuer like us to follow the corporate governance practices of its home country. Certain corporate governance practices in the Cayman Islands, which is our home country, may differ significantly from the Nasdaq Capital Market listing standards. Currently, we do not plan to rely on home country practices with respect to our corporate governance. However, if we choose to follow home country practices in the future, our shareholders may be afforded less protection than they would otherwise enjoy under the Nasdaq Capital Market listing standards applicable to U.S. domestic issuers.

There can be no assurance that we will not be a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for United States federal income tax purposes for any taxable year, which could subject United States investors in our Ordinary Shares to significant adverse United States income tax consequences.

We will be classified as a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for any taxable year if either (i) 75% or more of our gross income for such year consists of certain types of “passive” income, or (ii) 50% or more of the value of our assets (determined on the basis of a quarterly average) during such year produce or are held for the production of passive income (the “asset test”). Based upon our current and expected income and assets, as well as projections as to the market price of our Ordinary Shares, we do not presently expect to be classified as a PFIC for the current taxable year or the foreseeable future.

While we do not expect to be a PFIC, because the value of our assets, for purposes of the asset test, may be determined by reference to the market price of our Ordinary Shares, fluctuations in the market price of our Ordinary Shares may cause us to become a PFIC classification for the current or subsequent taxable years. The determination of whether we will be or become a PFIC will also depend, in part, on the composition and classification of our income, including the relative amounts of income generated by and the value of assets of our future strategic investment business as compared to our other businesses. Because there are uncertainties in the application of the relevant rules, it is possible that the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, may challenge our classification of certain income and assets as non-passive which may result in our being or becoming a PFIC in the current or subsequent years. In addition, the composition of our income and assets will also be affected by how, and how quickly, we use our liquid assets and the cash raised in the initial public offering. If we determine not to deploy significant amounts of cash for active purposes, our risk of being a PFIC may substantially increase. Because there are uncertainties in the application of the relevant rules and PFIC status is a factual determination made annually after the close of each taxable year, there can be no assurance that we will not be a PFIC for the current taxable year or any future taxable year.

If we are a PFIC in any taxable year, a U.S. Holder (as defined in “Taxation — United States Federal Income Tax Considerations”) may incur significantly increased United States income tax on gain recognized on the sale or other disposition of our Ordinary Shares and on the receipt of distributions on our Ordinary Shares to the extent such gain or distribution is treated as an “excess distribution” under the United States federal income tax rules, and such holder may be subject to burdensome reporting requirements. Further, if we are a PFIC for any year during which a U.S. Holder holds our Ordinary Shares, we will generally continue to be treated as a PFIC for all succeeding years during which such U.S. Holder holds our Ordinary Shares. For more information see “Taxation — United States Federal Income Tax Considerations — Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules.”

We are an “emerging growth company” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and if we take advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies, this could make it more difficult to compare our performance with other public companies.

We are an “emerging growth company” within the meaning of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act. Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised, and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of our financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accountant standards used.

As an “emerging growth company” under applicable law, we will be subject to lessened disclosure requirements. Such reduced disclosure may make our Ordinary Shares less attractive to investors.

For as long as we remain an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act, we will elect to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies”, including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. Because of these lessened regulatory requirements, our shareholders would be left without information or rights available to shareholders of more mature companies. If some investors find our Ordinary Shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our Ordinary Shares and our share price may be more volatile.

We will incur increased costs as a result of being a public company, particularly after we cease to qualify as an “emerging growth company.”

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rules subsequently implemented by the SEC, Nasdaq Capital Market, impose various requirements on the corporate governance practices of public companies. Compliance with these rules and regulations increases our legal and financial compliance costs and makes some corporate activities more time-consuming and costly. After we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” or until five years following the completion of our initial public offering, whichever is earlier, we expect to incur significant expenses and devote substantial management effort toward ensuring compliance with the requirements of Section 404 and the other rules and regulations of the SEC. For example, as a public company, we have been required to increase the number of independent directors and adopt policies regarding internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures. We have incurred additional costs in obtaining director and officer liability insurance. In addition, we will incur additional costs associated with our public company reporting requirements. It may also be more difficult or costly for us to find qualified persons to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers as a public company. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these rules and regulations, and we cannot predict or estimate with any degree of certainty the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Based on the public offering price of $0.4 per Ordinary Share, we will receive net proceeds from this offering of approximately $9.86million, assuming the sales of all of the securities we are offering, after deducting the placement agent’s commissions, the non-accountable expense allowance, and estimated offering expenses payable by us. However, because this is a best-efforts offering and there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to the closing of this offering, the actual offering amount, placement agent fees, and net proceeds to us are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amounts set forth on the cover page of this prospectus.

We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering for general corporate and working capital purposes.

The foregoing represents our current intentions based upon our present plans and business conditions to use and allocate the net proceeds of this Offering. Our management, however, will have significant flexibility and discretion to apply the net proceeds of this Offering. If an unforeseen event occurs or business conditions change, we may use the proceeds of this Offering differently than as described in this prospectus. 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.

Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing this offering, we may sell fewer than all or any of the securities offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us, and investors in this offering will not receive a refund in the event that we do not sell a number of securities sufficient to pursue the business goals outlined in this prospectus.

DIVIDEND POLICY

Top Wealth Group Holding Limited has not made any dividends or distributions to U.S. investors as of the date of this prospectus. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, no dividends or distribution have been made to date by our subsidiaries.

We anticipate that we will retain any earnings to support operations and to finance the growth and development of our business. Therefore, we do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Our board of directors has complete discretion on whether to distribute dividends, subject to certain restrictions under applicable Cayman Islands laws. In addition, our shareholders may by ordinary resolution declare a dividend, but no dividend may exceed the amount recommended by our board of directors. Under Cayman Islands law, a Cayman Islands company may pay a dividend either out of profit or share premium account, provided that in no circumstances may a dividend be paid if the dividend payment would result in the company being unable to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. Even if our board of directors decides to pay dividends, the form, frequency, and amount of future dividend, if any, will depend upon, among other things, our future operations and earnings and cash flow, capital requirements and surplus, the amount of distributions, if any, received by us from our subsidiaries, general financial condition, contractual restrictions, and other factors that the board of directors may deem relevant. Cash dividends on our ordinary shares, if any, will be paid in U.S. dollars. Please see the section titled “Taxation” of this prospectus for information on the potential tax consequences of any cash dividends declared.

CAPITALIZATION

The following table sets forth our capitalization as of December 31, 2023:

The pro forma information below is illustrative only, and our capitalization following the completion of this offering is subject to adjustment based on the actual net proceeds to us from the offering. You should read this capitalization table in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, “Use of Proceeds” and the consolidated financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.

DILUTION

If you invest in our Ordinary Shares, your interest will be diluted for each Ordinary Share you purchase to the extent of the difference between the offering price per ordinary share and our net tangible book value per ordinary share after the Offering. Dilution results from the fact that the offering price per ordinary share is substantially in excess of the net tangible book value per ordinary share attributable to the existing shareholders for our presently outstanding Ordinary Shares.

Our net tangible book value as of December 31, 2023 was approximately US$0.18 per Ordinary Share. Net tangible book value per ordinary share represents the amount of total tangible assets, minus the amount of total liabilities, divided by the total number of Ordinary Shares outstanding. Dilution is determined by subtracting the net tangible book value per Ordinary Share (as adjusted for the offering) from the public offering price per Ordinary Share and after deducting the estimated offering expenses payable by us.

After giving effect to the issuance and sale of 27,000,000 Ordinary Shares offered in this offering at the public offering price of US$0.40 per share, after deducting the placement agent commissions, the non-accountable expense allowance and the estimated offering expenses payable by us and assuming the sale of all of the Ordinary Shares we are offering, our as-adjusted net tangible book value as of December 31, 2023 would have been approximately $14,818,690, or $0.27 per outstanding Ordinary Share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $0.09 per ordinary share to the existing shareholders, and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of $0.13 per Ordinary Share to investors purchasing Ordinary Shares in this offering.

The following table illustrates such dilution:

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks, and assumptions associated with these statements. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those discussed in our forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus.

Overview

We are a holding company incorporated as an exempted company under the laws of the Cayman Islands. As a holding company with no material operations of our own, we conduct our substantial operations solely in Hong Kong and have been established since 2009 and diversified into the caviar business in 2021.

Headquartered in Hong Kong, we are a fast-growing supplier of luxury caviar products. We are currently specialized in supplying high quality sturgeon caviar. We believe we are one of the major suppliers of caviar in Hong Kong being able to secure a long-term and exclusive supply of caviar raw products from sturgeon farm.

Since we established our caviar business in August 2021, we had supplied caviar to our customers under their brand labels (i.e. private labelling) or without brand labels. Subsequently in November 2021, we established our own caviar brand, “Imperial Cristal Caviar”, and started selling caviar under our own brand as well. With its exquisite package design, our branded caviar is ideal to be presented as both culinary delights and festive gifts. Imperial Cristal Caviar has continuously achieved tremendous sales growth since its launch in the market.

Our customers primarily and substantially include food and beverage (“F&B”) related distributors. We have strategically focused on business-to-business sales (B2B) which would allow us access to our customers’ sales network and consumer base that helps us maximize the reach of our products swiftly and effectively. As our caviar products gain popularity worldwide, our customer base has continuously expanded as a result of customers’ referral and our marketing efforts.

Recent Trends and Initiatives

The growth of high-net-worth individuals, technological development and supportive policies are projected to collaboratively drive the prosperity of global caviar market.

Stimulated by the expanding demands, the trend of brand-building and the springing up of China’s market, the global caviar market will see continuous growth in the following years.

Key Factors Affecting Our Business

We believe that our performance is principally affected by the following key factors:

Downstream consumption demands to be extensive and diversified: As caviar is proven to be an excellent source of omega-3 and six fatty acids, and other vitamins and minerals, the nutrition benefits of caviar got highly recognized by the market worldwide. The diversification of downstream consumption demands is expanding the caviar’s application in the nutraceutical, cosmeceutical and pharmaceutical industries.

Currently, except for food garnish and other edible uses, caviar is gradually applied for skin moisturizing, skin texture improvement and obesity treatment, etc. This wide range of benefits for caviar in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical sectors is projected to continue to boost demand in the future years.

How We Assess the Performance of Our Business

In assessing the performance of our business, we consider a variety of performance and financial measures. The key measures used by our management are discussed below. The percentages on the results presented below are calculated based on the rounded numbers.

Net Sales

Net sales is equal to gross sales minus sales returns as well as any sales incentives that we offer to our customers, such as rebates and discounts that are offsets to gross sales, and certain other adjustments. Our net sales are driven by changes in case volumes, product inflation prior to pricing of our products, and mix of products sold.

Gross Profit

Gross profit is equal to our net sales minus our cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold primarily includes inventory costs (net of supplier consideration) and inbound freight. Cost of goods sold generally changes as we incur higher or lower costs from our suppliers and as our customer and product mix changes.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022

The following financial data are derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, our consolidate financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

A summary of the Company’s operating results for the year ended December 31 2023 and 2022 are as follows:

Our revenue increased by USD8,430,358, or 99%, from USD8,512,929 for the year ended December 31, 2022 to USD16,943,287 for the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to the addition of new customers and also increased orders from some existing customers based on the increased popularity of caviar consumption in the fine dining industry. Also, we started trading of fine wine in 2023, which contributed revenue of US$4,460,092, compared to Nil in 2022. An analysis is set out below:

Cost of sales

Our cost of sales mainly comprised of purchase costs for caviar and wine. For the year ended December 31, 2023, our cost of sales amounted to USD11,556,006, an increase of USD7,246,259, or 168%, from USD4,309,747 for the year ended December 31, 2022. This increase was in line with the significant increase in revenue.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Our gross profit margin for the year ended December 31, 2023 was 31.8% as compared to 49.4% for the year ended December 31, 2022. The reduction in our gross profit margin primarily stems from an increase in volume purchases made by certain customers, which enabled them to secure more favorable discounts for those orders.

Administrative and Selling Expenses

Our Company’s administrative expenses came in at USD1,846,759 and USD466,477 for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 respectively, representing approximately 10.90% and 5.48% of our total revenue for the corresponding period.

Our administrative expenses for the year ended 30 June 2023 primarily consist of (i) professional fee; (ii) staff cost; (iii) depreciation; (iv) rental fee; (v) travelling and entertainment; (vi) office supplies and upkeep and (vii) miscellaneous expenses. The following table sets forth the breakdown of our administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

The increase in administrative expenses during the year ended December 31, 2023 was primarily due to increased IPO related professional fees, including legal, audit, and consulting fees of approximately USD921,110. The increase in staff cost for the year ended December 31 2023 compared to December 31 2022 was mainly due to the increase in headcount and workforce as our Company pushed for higher sales orders and acquisition of new customers. The higher depreciation expense was due to the completion of the renovation of our office which was only completed in the first half of 2023.

Our selling expense in 2023 and 2022 primarily consist of marketing campaign paid to a marketing agency as follows:

The reduction in selling expenses for the year ended December 31 2023 compared to the corresponding period in 2022 can be primarily attributed to the absence of expenditure related to engaging a marketing agency for promotional campaigns. Our own in-house marketing team had developed a better understanding of our industry, target audience and product offerings since our early days. This decision to forego the engagement of a marketing agency has proven to be cost efficient and allowed us to allocate resources more efficiently, reducing cost associated with marketing and agency fee.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our liquidity and working capital requirements primarily related to our operating expenses. Historically, we have met our working capital and other liquidity requirements primarily through cash generated from our operations. Going forward, we expect to fund our working capital and other liquidity requirements from various sources, including but not limited to cash generated from our operations, loans from banking facilities, the net proceeds from the securities offering from the listing and other equity and debt financings as and when appropriate.

Cash flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022:

For the year ended December 31, 2023, our net cash used in operating activities was USD863,616 and is mainly comprised of increase in accounts receivable as there were promotional sales for the Christmas of 2023. For the years ended December 31, 2022, our net cash of USD120,260 provided by operating activities primarily reflected our net income, as adjusted for non-operating items, such as depreciation of right of use assets, plant and equipment, deferred tax credit and effects of changes in working capital such as increase or decrease in inventories, accounts receivable, accounts and other payables, deposits and accruals.

For the year ended December 31 2023, there was no cash outflow from investing activities while for the years ended December 31, 2022, the cash outflows from our investing activities were primarily attributable to acquisition of office equipment and leasehold improvement of our office.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the cash provided by financing activities were attributable to standby bridging loan facilities provided by a third party and also minority shareholder, while for the years ended December 31, 2022, the cash provided by financing activities were attributable to the issue of capital and funds provided by our director.

Working Capital

We believe that our Company has sufficient working capital for our requirements for at least the next 12 months from the date of this prospectus, in the absence of unforeseen circumstances, taking into account the financial resources presently available to us, including cash and cash equivalents on hand, cash flows from our operations and the estimated net proceeds from the IPO offering.

Capital Expenditures

Historical capital expenditures

Our capital expenditures for the years ended December 31 2023 and 2022 were nil and USD 481,173 respectively. The capital expenditures incurred in the year ended December 31 2022 are related to purchase of office equipment and leasehold improvement. We principally funded our capital expenditures through cash flows from operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Transactions

As of December 31, 2023, we have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our stockholders.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements and accompanying notes requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of our financial statements. These accounting policies are important for an understanding of our financial condition and results of operation. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial conditions and results of operations and require management’s difficult, subjective, or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting the estimate may differ significantly from management’s current judgments.

The following critical accounting policies rely upon assumptions and estimates and were used in the preparation of our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements:

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the recorded amounts of assets, liabilities, shareholders’ equity, revenues and expenses during the reporting period, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements.

On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates and if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted. The most significant estimates include allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, inventory valuation, useful lives and impairment for property and equipment, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, accruals for potential liabilities and contingencies. Actual results could vary from the estimates and assumptions that were used.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, “Revenue from contracts with customers,” (Topic 606). Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The amount of revenue that is recorded reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods. The Company applies the following five-step model in order to determine this amount: (i) identification of the promised goods in the contract; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation. The Company’s main revenue stream is from sales of products. The Company recognizes as revenues the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when the performance obligation is satisfied or as it is satisfied. Generally, the Company’s performance obligations are transferred to customers at a point in time, typically upon delivery.

The Company has one major stream of revenue, that is, the sale of caviar products in Hong Kong.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s principal country of operations is Hong Kong. The financial position and results of its operation are determined using Hong Kong Dollars (“HK$”), the local currency, as the functional currency. The Company’s consolidated financial statements are reported using U.S. Dollar (“US$” or “$”).

The following table outlines the currency exchange rates that were used in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements:

Fair Value Measurements — Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Inputs used to measure fair value are classified using the following hierarchy:

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses reflected as current assets and current liabilities. Due to the short-term nature of these instruments, management considers their carrying value to approximate their fair value.

New accounting standards

Financial Instruments —Credit Losses

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-13 (Topic 326), Financial Instruments — Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected credit loss model and requires an asset measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The guidance became effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2023. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Accounts receivables are reviewed for impairment on a quarterly basis and are presented net of an allowance for expected credit losses. The allowance for expected credit losses is estimated based on the Company’s analysis of amounts due, historical delinquencies and write-offs, and current economic conditions, together with reasonable and supportable forecasts of short-term economic conditions. The allowance for expected credit losses is recognized in net income (loss) and any adjustment to the allowance for expected credit losses is recognized in the period in which it is determined. Write-offs of accounts receivable, together with associated allowances for expected credit losses, are recognized in the period in which balances are deemed uncollectible. The Company does not have a history of significant write-offs. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2021, the total allowance for expected credit losses on the Company’s accounts receivable were Nil and Nil.

On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments require that public business entities on an annual basis (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than 5 percent of the amount computed by multiplying pre-tax income or loss by the applicable statutory income tax rate). In addition, public business entities are required to provide certain qualitative disclosures about the rate reconciliation and the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated (1) by federal (national), state, and foreign taxes and (2) by individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid (net of refunds received) is equal to or greater than 5 percent of total income taxes paid (net of refunds received). For public business entities, the standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments in this ASU require a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate components of equity or net assets) as of the beginning of the annual reporting period in which an entity adopts the amendments. The Company is evaluating the impact of this standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

We have evaluated all the recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standards-setting bodies through the date of this report and do not believe the future adoption of any such standards will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

BUSINESS

Overview

Our mission is to become a world-renowned supplier of the finest selection of caviar and offer caviar-based gourmet products around the globe with unparalleled gastronomical experience.

Headquartered in Hong Kong, we are a fast-growing supplier of caviar products. We are currently specialized in supplying high-quality sturgeons caviar. Our caviar is endorsed with the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (“CITES”) permits, which certifies that our caviar is legally traded. We are one of the major suppliers of caviar in Hong Kong. We have secured a long-term and exclusive supply of caviar raw products from a PRC sturgeon farm.

Since we established our caviar business in August 2021, we had supplied caviar to our customers under their brand labels (i.e. private labeling) or without brand labels. Subsequently in November 2021, we established our own caviar brand, “Imperial Cristal Caviar”, and started selling caviar under our own brand as well. With its exquisite package design, we consider our branded caviar is ideal to be presented as both culinary delights and festive gifts. Imperial Cristal Caviar has continuously achieved tremendous sales growth since its launch in the market.

In March 2023, as the addition to the gastronomical experience of our caviar, we have commenced our wine trading business line, to complement our caviar business. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, our wine trading business line contributed revenue of US$4,460,092, compared to Nil for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. The fine wine we distribute include white wine, red wine, and Champagne, from various countries. Our wine trading business only involves the distribution of fine wine within Hong Kong on business-to-business (B2B) sales, primarily to our F&B related distributor customers, in particular, the F&B related distributor customers who we supply our caviar product. We do not import or manufacture the wine we distribute, instead, we source the wines from our wine suppliers in Hong Kong on an as-demand per order basis. Therefore, we are not subject to the relevant licensing requirements that apply to sale of alcoholic beverages in Hong Kong.

We take pride in our well-tested, reliable caviar supply chain management module, which helps ensure the palatability and freshness of our products when they reach our customers. We believe we are among one of the few Hong Kong caviar suppliers being able to secure a long-term and exclusive supply of caviar raw products from a PRC sturgeon farm. In April 2022, we entered into an exclusive supply agreement with the agent and distributor of a well-established sturgeon farm in Fujian, the PRC, which appointed us as its exclusive distributor in Hong Kong and Macau for conducting overseas distribution and granted us the rights to procure caviar directly from it for a term of 10 years. This sturgeon farm is one of the six existing PRC sturgeon farms which are officially permitted to export locally-bred roe. We have engaged a Hong Kong-based supply chain management company to handle the logistics, warehousing and packaging workflows in our supply chain, so we can strategically focus on brand-building and product quality assurance.

We are dedicated to enhancing our brand awareness. As part of our sales and marketing efforts, we have proactively participated in food expo and set up pop-up stores across the world. We have also collaborated with famous food bloggers and used different online platforms and media coverage to promote and strengthen the publicity of our products. We regularly invite chefs of notable hotels and restaurants to our tasting events.

We generate all of our revenues, through our Operating Subsidiary, from trading of caviar products and wine. Our revenues for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 were US$16.9 million, US$8.5 million and US$19,615, respectively. We have turned around from a loss before tax of approximately US$16,888 for the year ended December 31, 2021 to a profit before tax of approximately US$2.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, and we have maintained a profit before tax of approximately US$3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Our top five customers accounted for 92.0% and 95.8% of our total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. Our customers, including our top five customers, primarily include food and beverage (“F&B”) related distributors. We have strategically focused on business-to-business sales (B2B) which would allow us access to our customers’ sales network and consumer base that helps us maximize the reach of our products swiftly and effectively. As our caviar products gain popularity worldwide, our customer base has continuously expanded as a result of customers’ referral and our marketing efforts. Our caviar products are mainly sold to customers based in Hong Kong and a substantial portion are exported overseas by our customers. As our products gradually become more well-known in the international market, we aspire to expand our sales channels from only selling through distributors to selling our products directly to overseas customers.

Our major suppliers include (i) a distributor and agent of a sturgeon farm in the PRC, Fujian Aoxuanlaisi Biotechnology Co., Ltd (“Fujian Aoxuanlaisi”), which supplies caviar raw product to us; (ii) a Hong Kong supply chain management company, Sunfun (China) Limited (“Sunfun China”), which handles the logistics, warehousing and packaging workflows in our supply chain; (iii) a Hong Kong wine distributor, which supplies fine wine to us; and (iv) other suppliers which supply packaging materials and printing services to us. We materially rely on Fujian Aoxuanlaisi as our supplier for caviar raw product. Fujian Aoxuanlaisi is the agent and ppointed distributor of a well-established PRC sturgeon farm, operated by Fujian Longhuang Biotech Co. Limited (“Fujian Longhuang”). Fujian Aoxuanlaisi and Fujian Longhuang currently maintain a long-term exclusive sales agreement for 15 years, from December 2020 to December 2035. Historically, before April 2022, we obtained the supply of caviar raw product from Fujian Aoxuanlaisi on an as-demand per order basis, without any long-term agreements. In April 2022, our Operating Subsidiary, Top Wealth Group (International) Limited, has entered into the Caviar Sales Agreement with Fujian Aoxuanlaisi, appointed us as its exclusive distributor in Hong Kong and Macau. We do not have any direct supply agreement with Fujian Longhuang, the PRC sturgeon farm.

For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, our procurement from Fujian Aoxuanlaisi amounted to approximately US$6.2 million, US$5.3 million, and US$0.3 million respectively, representing approximately 64.3%, 90% and 100% of our total purchases for the corresponding year. Our material reliance on Fujian Aoxuanlaisi as the supplier of our caviar raw product exposes us to unique and significant risk, for detailed discussion, please see “Risk Factors — Risks related to our Business and Industry — We materially rely on Fujian Aoxuanlaisi Biotechnology Co., Ltd (“Fujian Aoxuanlaisi”), the exclusive distributor of a PRC sturgeon farm, as our supplier for the supply of caviar raw product. Such arrangement materially and adversely exposes us to unique risk. Any disruption in the supplier’s relationships, either between Fujian Aoxuanlaisi and the PRC sturgeon farm, or between Fujian Aoxuanlaisi and us, could have a material adverse effect on our business. Any disruption in the provision of caviar from Fujian Aoxuanlaisi or PRC sturgeon farm and our inability to identify alternative caviar supplier may materially and adversely affect our business operations and financial results.”

Competitive Strengths

A fast-growing luxury caviar products supplier with a premier brand image

We position ourselves as a luxury caviar products supplier aiming to supply the finest selection of luxury caviar products and offer gourmet products around the globe with unparalleled gastronomical experience. We are currently specialized in supplying high quality sturgeons caviar. In November 2021, we established our own caviar brand, “Imperial Cristal Caviar”. From the feedback of our distbributors and customers, our Imperial Cristal Caviar is highly recognized by the end-consumers in terms of its tastiness, texture, palatability, appearance and packaging. Our packaging carries a delicate design that conveys elegance and exclusivity and is ideal to be presented as both culinary delights and festive gifts. We also gladly learned from our distributor customers and market survey that our caviar products are also well-received by chefs of restaurants who serve our caviar products on their menus.

An extensive distribution network which allows us to stay abreast of the latest trend and development of consumers’ taste

We have access to an extensive distribution network through our distributors customers which allows us to connect with a broad range of consumers around the world and to stay abreast of the latest trend and development of consumers’ taste. Our caviar products are mainly sold to F&B related distributors in Hong Kong, which then export and resell such goods to downstream customers such as supermarket, retail stores, F&B chain and consumers across the world. Leveraging the sales network and consumer base of our distributors, our caviar products have been exported overseas to different countries. Through sales channels that cover extensive points of sale across countries and regions, we serve a variety of consumer groups with diversified demands, which deepens our market penetration and extends our geographical coverage.

A strict and comprehensive quality control system to effectively control our product safety and quality

Food safety and quality control are of paramount importance to our reputation and business. To ensure food safety and quality, we have established a comprehensive standards and requirements regarding our supply chain, ranging from procurement, logistics, warehousing to packaging.

We carefully select the source of caviar supplies. We have reviewed all certifications required from our caviar supplier in the PRC for, among other things, the operation of sturgeon farm in the PRC and exporting caviar products overseas. Our caviar products are endorsed with the CITES permits, which certifies that our caviar is legally traded. We conduct sample inspection on each incoming batch of caviar.

Our food processing factory is operated by the supply chain management company and we require its staff to follow a comprehensive set of operation manual and technical protocols prescribed by us. We provide instruction and regular on-the-job training to the processing staff to ensure their work standard and efficiency. In order to maintain the quality and freshness of our caviar, our food processing factory is equipped with temperature control system that mandates a prescribed temperature range. We implement strict and comprehensive measures in our food processing factory to ensure sanitation and hygiene at the premises, such as mandating the processing staff to wear standardized clothing, conducting regular inspection on the packaging equipment and performing routine maintenance and cleaning.

The supply chain management company has designated a quality control staff at our food processing factory to inspect and monitor the processing procedures. The quality control staff will conduct quality control testing and inspection throughout the packaging process and ensure the taste, size, quality and packaging of our caviar products conform with our quality standards and requirements.

Since the establishment of our caviar business and up to the date of this prospectus, we did not encounter any material food safety incidents and we had not experienced any product liability claims.

A stable and exclusive procurement source of caviar

We take pride in our well-tested, reliable caviar supply chain management module, which helps ensure the palatability and freshness of our products when they reach our customers. We believe we are among one of the few Hong Kong caviar suppliers being able to secure long-term and exclusive supply of caviar from sturgeon farm. We have entered into an exclusive supply agreement with the distributor of a well-established sturgeon farm in the PRC in April 2022, which appointed us as its exclusive distributor in Hong Kong and Macau for conducting overseas distribution and granted us the rights to procure caviar directly from it for a term of 10 years. This sturgeon farm is one of the six existing PRC sturgeon farms which are officially permitted to export locally-bred roe. Our end-to-end supply chain business model not only improves cost efficiency, it also promotes consumers’ confidence in our caviar products as well as facilitate our sales and marketing plans.

Growth Strategies

Expand the global market reach of our caviar product

We strive to strengthen the global market reach of our caviar product in developed markets with a strong consumer base, such as Europe, the United States, Japan, Dubai, Australia and Southeast Asia (collectively, the “Target Regions”). We intend to establish representative offices at each of the Target Regions to access the local consumers. We currently plan to recruit local sales and marketing staff to conduct marketing activities in such regions, ranging from (i) conducting product promotion; (ii) brand building; (iii) maintaining regular communication with local customers; (iv) collecting feedbacks from local consumers on our products; and (v) maintaining regular communication and interaction with different industry players, so we can stay abreast of the latest trend and development of local consumers’ tastes.

As our products gradually become more well-known in the international market, we aspire to expand our sales channels from only selling through distributors to selling our products directly to overseas customers. Material obstacles that we have to overcome include (i) the competition for high-quality sales and distribution partners is intense and we may not be able to offer more favorable arrangement than our competitors; (ii) there may not be suitable distribution channels or overseas customers in the markets that we planned to expand; (iii) we may not be able to hire, train and retain skilled local sales and marketing staffs; and (iv) we may encounter difficulties in adapting our logistics and management systems to an expanded distribution network. However, leveraging our competitive strengths described in the paragraph headed “Competitive Strengths” above, we are confident that we will be able to expand our sales channels to overseas customers three years after the Offering.

Strengthen our sales and marketing activities

We plan to strengthen our sales and marketing activities and increase our market exposure and brand awareness by participating in food-expo and collaborating with luxurious restaurants, hotels and private clubs to host tasting events in different countries and regions. Further, we plan to invite the media and chefs from notable restaurants and hotels to visit the sturgeon farm which supplies caviar raw products to us. We believe we can provide the participants with a better understanding of our procurement source and give them stronger assurance with respect to our product safety, quality and hygienic conditions, thereby enhancing the brand image of our products.

Expand our procurement source and broaden our product portfolio

We are committed to sourcing top-quality caviar from the best sturgeon farms around the world. We currently plan to expand our procurement source and broaden our product portfolio by exploring potential co-operations with sturgeon farms located in Europe and/or the United States. In identifying suitable caviar suppliers, we will conduct on-site inspection at the selected sturgeon farms and conduct legal and business due diligence on their background and operations. We would also verify that the caviar supplied by the selected sturgeon farms complies with the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora. We believe that expansion in our product portfolio will provide a wider selection of caviar for our customers in terms of places of origin, as well as species and ages of sturgeon.

Depending on the availability of potential acquisition targets, we also plan to carry out vertical expansion by acquiring non-controlling stakes in suitable sturgeon farms in Europe and/or the United States. We believe that through integration with upstream sturgeon farms, we can guarantee a stable supply of caviar with consistent high quality.

Our Caviar Products and Our Own Brand

Headquartered in Hong Kong, we are a fast-growing supplier of luxury caviar products. We are currently specialized in supplying premium class sturgeons caviar. Our caviar is endorsed with the CITES permits, which certifies that our caviar is legally traded. We are one of the major suppliers of caviar in Hong Kong being able to secure a long-term and exclusive supply of caviar raw products from sturgeon farm.

Since we established our caviar business in August 2021, we had supplied caviar to our customers under their brand labels (i.e. private labelling) or without brand labels.

With its exquisite package design, our branded caviar is ideal to be presented as both culinary delights and festive gifts. Imperial Cristal Caviar has continuously achieved tremendous sales growth since its launch in the market.

Depending on our inventory level and customers’ orders on hand, our sales and marketing staff will place purchase orders with the agent and exclusive distributor of a sturgeon farm in the PRC. The quantity that we order from the supplier is typically slightly in excess of the quantity ordered by our customers such that we could maintain certain inventory to meet any ad-hoc orders from our customers.

Depending on the purchase order and requirements of our customers, our caviar products are packaged in different sizes of containers and labelled with our own brand or our customers’ brands (i.e. private labelling) or without brand labels. We provide instruction and regular on-the-job training to the processing staff to ensure their work standard and efficiency. In order to maintain the quality and freshness of our caviar, our food processing factory is equipped with temperature control system that mandates a prescribed temperature range.

The selling prices of our caviar products are determined on a cost-plus pricing approach with reference to, among other things, cost of sales which mainly represents procurement costs and costs incurred in relation to our supply chain management and a percentage of mark-up over our estimated cost of sales. The percentage of mark-up may vary based on factors such as (i) prevailing market prices for different caviar products; (ii) size of purchase order; (iii) type of customer; (iv) length of relationship with the customer; (v) supply and demand mechanism in our target markets; (vi) consumer preference; and (vii) any positive impact on our brand reputation.

Supply chain management company

Historically and as of the date of this prospectus, we have engaged a Hong Kong-based supply chain management company, Sunfun China Limited (“Sunfun China”), to handle the logistics, warehousing and packaging workflows in our supply chain, so we can strategically focus on brand-building and product quality assurance. On July 31, 2021, our Operating Subsidiary, Top Wealth Group (International) Limited has entered into a Food Processing Factory Leasing and Service Project Agreement (“Leasing and Service Agreement”) with Sunfun China, and such agreement is subsequently renewed on September 10, 2024, until March 11, 2026.

The supply chain management company is also responsible for the transportation of our caviar through cold-chain to the places designated by our customers and handling the application procedures for re-export license for delivery to foreign countries. Furthermore, Sunfun China has also leased a food processing factory located in Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong, to Top Wealth Group (International) Limited, for carrying out the packaging and labelling of our caviar products. The food processing factory has obtained a food factory license from the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department of Hong Kong which is essential for food business involving the preparation of food for sale for human consumption off the premises. The license is valid for one year from April 18, 2024 to April 17, 2025. To safeguard the palatability and freshness of our caviar products, the food processing factory is equipped with temperature control system that mandates a prescribed temperature range. Upon our requests, the Sunfun China will deploy labor for food packaging and labelling at our food processing factory located in Hong Kong.

The principal terms of Leasing and Service Agreement are summarized as follows:

As of the date of this prospectus, we have not experienced any material dispute with our suppliers and we do not foresee any material circumstances which would result in early termination of the supply agreement with our suppliers.

Inventory Management

Our inventory is mainly comprised of caviar. Depending on our inventory level and customers’ orders on hand, our sales and marketing staff will place purchase orders with our caviar supplier in the PRC. The quantity that we order from the supplier is generally slightly in excess of the quantity ordered by our customers such that we could maintain certain inventory to meet any ad-hoc orders from our customers.

We have implemented inventory management policies to monitor and control our inventory level at an optimal level to avoid obsolescence. We adopt a “first-in-first-out” policy to preserve the freshness of our caviar and reduce our loss rate. We maintain an inventory register which clearly records each inflow and outflow of our inventory. Periodic stock-take is conducted to ensure the accuracy of stock-in and stock-out information on record. To safeguard the palatability and freshness of our caviar products, they are stored at our food processing factory which is equipped with temperature control system that mandates a prescribed temperature range.

Quality Control

Food safety and quality control are of paramount importance to our reputation and business. To ensure food safety and quality, we have established a comprehensive set of standards and requirements covering each facet of our supply chain, ranging from procurement, logistics, warehousing to packaging.

We have adopted a stringent policy and procedure on selecting the source of caviar supply. Due to the perishable nature of caviar, we strictly require the caviar processing procedures which involve over 10 works steps covering roe removal from sturgeons, washing and salting of caviar, to be completed over a timeframe of 15 minutes. We have reviewed all certifications required from our caviar supplier in the PRC for, among other things, the operation of sturgeon farm in the PRC and exporting caviar products overseas. Our caviar products are endorsed with the CITES permits, which certifies that our caviar is legally traded. We conduct sample inspection on each incoming batch of caviar.

The supply chain management company has designated a quality control staff at our food processing factory to inspect and monitor the processing procedures. The quality control staff will conduct quality control testing and inspection throughout the packaging process and ensure the taste, size, quality and packaging of our caviar products conform with our quality standards and requirements.

Our caviar products are transported through cold-chain from the PRC sturgeon farm to the places designated by our customers in order to ensure their palatability and freshness.

Since the establishment of our caviar business and up to the date of this prospectus, we have not encountered any material food safety incidents and we had not experienced any product liability claims.

REGULATION

Our business operations are conducted in Hong Kong and are subject to Hong Kong laws and regulations. This section summarizes the most significant rules and regulations that affect our business activities in Hong Kong.

Public Health and Municipal Services Ordinance

The legal framework for food safety control in Hong Kong is set out in Part V of the Public Health and Municipal Services Ordinance (Chapter 132 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (the “Public Health Ordinance”) and the relevant sub-legislations thereunder. The Public Health Ordinance requires the manufacturers and sellers of food to ensure that their products are fit for human consumption and comply with the requirements in respect of food safety, food standards and labeling.

As the business of our Group principally involves retail of natural and organic foods in Hong Kong, our Group is subject to the Public Health Ordinance.

Section 50 of the Public Health Ordinance prohibits the manufacturing, advertising and sale in Hong Kong of food or drugs that are injurious to health. Anyone who fails to comply with this section commits an offence which carries a maximum penalty of HK$10,000 and imprisonment for three months.

Section 52 of the Public Health Ordinance provides that, subject to a number of defenses in section 53 of the same ordinance, if a seller sells to the prejudice of a purchaser any food or drug which is not of the nature, substance or quality of the food or drug demanded by the purchaser, the seller shall be guilty of an offence which carries a maximum penalty of HK$10,000 and imprisonment for three months.

According to section 54 of the Public Health Ordinance, any person who sells or offers or exposes for sale or has in his possession for the purpose of sale or preparation for sale or deposits with, or consigns to, any person for the purpose of sale or of preparation for sale, any food intended for, but unfit for, human consumption, or any drug intended for use by human but unfit for that purpose, shall be guilty of an offence. The maximum penalty for contravention of section 54 is a fine of HK$50,000 and imprisonment for six months.

Section 61 of the Public Health Ordinance provides that it shall be an offense for any person to give with any food or drug sold by him/her, or to display with any food or drug offered for sale by him/her, any label which falsely describes the food or drug or which is calculated to mislead as to its nature, substance or quality. Further, it shall also be an offense if any person publishes, or is a party to the publication of, an advertisement falsely describing any food or drug or that is likely to mislead as to the nature, substance or quality of any food or drug. However, the offender can rely on warranty as a defense.

Section 71(2) of the Public Health Ordinance specifies that if a warranty is given by a person resident outside Hong Kong, it shall only be a defense if the company (i) has, not later than three clear days before the date of the hearing, sent to the prosecutor a copy of the warranty with a notice stating that he/she intends to rely on it and specifying the name and address of the person from whom he/she received it; and (ii) has also sent a like notice to that person. In addition, the company has to prove that it had taken reasonable steps to ascertain, and did in fact believe in, the accuracy of the statement contained therein.

Import and Export Ordinance

The Import and Export Ordinance (Chapter 60 of the Laws of Hong Kong) provides for the regulation and control of, amongst other things, the import and export of articles into or out of Hong Kong. According to the Import and Export (Registration) Regulations (Chapter 60E of the Laws of Hong Kong), a subsidiary legislation of the Import and Export Ordinance, an importer is under an obligation to lodge with the Customs and Excise Department an accurate and complete import declaration through a specified “Government Electronic Trading Services” provider. Further, a similar obligation is imposed on an exporter by the same Regulations.

Food Safety Ordinance

Food Safety Ordinance (Chapter 612 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (the “Food Safety Ordinance”) establishes a registration scheme for food importers and food distributors to require the keeping of records by persons who acquire, capture, import or supply food and to enable food import controls to be imposed.

Registration as food importer or distributor

Sections 4 and 5 of the Food Safety Ordinance require any person who carries on a food importation business or food distribution business to register with the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department as a food importer or food distributor.

Any person who does not register but carries on a food importation or distribution business, without reasonable excuse, commits an offence and is liable to a maximum fine of HK$50,000 and imprisonment for six months.

Record-keeping requirement relating to movement of food

Section 22 of the Food Safety Ordinance provides that a person who, in the course of business, imports food must record the following information about the acquisition of the food:

A record must be made under this section at or before the time the food is imported. Any person who fails to comply with the record-keeping requirement, without reasonable excuse, commits an offence and is liable to a maximum fine of HK$10,000 and imprisonment for three months.

Section 24 of the Food Safety Ordinance provides that a person who, in the course of business, supplies food in Hong Kong by wholesale must record the following information about the supply:

A record must be made under this section within 72 hours after the time the supply took place. Any person who fails to comply with the record-keeping requirement, without reasonable excuse, commits an offence and is liable to a maximum fine of HK$10,000 and imprisonment for three months.

Protection of Endangered Species of Animals and Plants Ordinance

Both China and Hong Kong are parties to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (“CITES”). The Protection of Endangered Species of Animals and Plants Ordinance (Chapter 586 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (the “PESO”) came into effect on 1 December 2006 to give effect to the CITES in Hong Kong. The importation, introduction from the sea, exportation, re-exportation and possession or control of specified endangered species of animals and plants, along with parts and derivatives of those species, are thus regulated under the PESO. Schedule 1 to the PESO sets out a list of species and categorizes them into different appendices which are regulated with varying degrees of control under the PESO. Sturgeons (except the species included in Appendix I) are included as an “Appendix II species”.

Under the PESO, an importer may import into Hong Kong from any other jurisdiction (including the PRC) caviar if (i) the importer produces the CITES permit issued by the relevant authorities of the exporting country to an authorized officer of the Customs and Excise Department; (ii) an authorized officer has inspected the caviar to compare it with the particulars on the CITES permit and is satisfied that the particulars tally; and (iii) the importer surrenders to the authorized officer the CITES permit for retention and cancellation.

Prior to the re-exportation of caviar out of Hong Kong, the re-exporter shall, pursuant to the PESO, apply for a re-export license from the Director of Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation, which may be issued with or without conditions as the director considers appropriate. Any such re-export license obtained by the re-exporter shall be produced to an authorized officer of the Customs and Excise Department before the caviar is re-exported from Hong Kong.

As stipulated in the PESO, a person commits an offence if he or she imports caviar without an import license or re-exports caviar without a re-export license. A person guilty of an offence above is liable on conviction to a fine and imprisonment. Higher penalties can be imposed by the court if the offence is committed for commercial purposes.

Consumer Goods Safety Ordinance

The Consumer Goods Safety Ordinance (Chapter 456 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (the “Consumer Goods Safety Ordinance”) imposes a duty on manufacturers, importers and suppliers of certain consumer goods to ensure that the consumer goods they supply are safe and for incidental purposes.

PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our share capital by:

The calculations in the table below are based on 29,000,000 Ordinary Shares outstanding prior to the offering, and 56,000,000 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately after the completion of this offering. All of our shareholders who own our Ordinary Shares have the same voting rights.

The information presented below regarding beneficial ownership of our voting securities has been presented in accordance with the rules of the SEC and is not necessarily indicative of ownership for any other purpose. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting of the security or the power to dispose or direct the disposition of the security. A person is deemed to own beneficially any security as to which such person has the right to acquire sole or shared voting or investment power within sixty (60) days through the conversion or exercise of any convertible security, warrant, option or other right. More than one (1) person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities. The percentage of beneficial ownership by any person as of a particular date is calculated by dividing the number of shares beneficially owned by such person, which includes the number of shares as to which such person has the right to acquire voting or investment power within sixty (60) days, by the sum of the number of shares outstanding as of such date, plus the number of shares as to which such person has the right to acquire voting or investment power within sixty (60) days. Consequently, the denominator used for calculating such percentage may be different for each beneficial owner. Except as otherwise indicated below and under applicable community property laws, we believe that the beneficial owners of our shares listed below have sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares shown.

We are not aware of any arrangement that may, at a subsequent date, result in a change of control of our Company.

The holders of our Ordinary Shares are entitled to such dividends as may be declared by our Board of Directors, subject to the Companies Act. Subject to the provisions of the Companies Act and any rights attaching to any class or classes of shares under and in accordance with the articles, our articles provide that the directors may from time to time declare dividends (including interim dividends) and other distributions on shares of the Company in issue and authorize payment of the same out of the funds of the Company lawfully available therefor. Our shareholders may, by ordinary resolution, declare dividends but no such dividend shall exceed the amount recommended by the directors. No dividend shall be paid otherwise than out of profits or, subject to the restrictions of the Companies Act regarding the application of a company’s share premium account and with the sanction of an ordinary resolution, the share premium account. The directors when paying dividends to shareholders may make such payment either in cash or in specie.

Unless provided by the rights attached to a share, no dividend shall bear interest.

Voting Rights

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares, on a show of hands every shareholder of record present in person or by proxy at a general meeting shall have one vote and on a poll every shareholder of record present in person or by proxy shall have one (1) vote for each share registered in his name in the register of Members.

An ordinary resolution to be passed by the shareholders requires the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes attached to the Ordinary Shares cast by those shareholders entitled to vote who are present in person or by proxy (or, in the case of corporations, by their duly authorized representatives) at a general meeting, while a special resolution requires the affirmative vote of a majority of not less than two-thirds of the votes attached to the Ordinary Shares cast by those shareholders who are present in person or by proxy (or, in the case of corporations, by their duly authorized representatives) at a general meeting. Both ordinary resolutions and special resolutions may also be passed by a unanimous written resolution signed by all the shareholders of our company, as permitted by the Companies Act and our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. A special resolution will be required for important matters such as a change of name or making changes to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.

Cumulative Voting

Delaware law permits cumulative voting for the election of directors only if expressly authorized in the certificate of incorporation. There are no prohibitions in relation to cumulative voting under the laws of the Cayman Islands but our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association do not provide for cumulative voting.

Pre-emptive Rights

There are no pre-emptive rights applicable to the issue by us of Ordinary Shares under our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.

Options Grants

Effective on August 1, 2022, Top Wealth (International) Limited (“TW HK”), the Operating Subsidiary, entered into a Corporate Development Consultant Appointment Agreement with Mr. Haitong, CHEN (the “Consultancy Agreement”), in which TW HK appointed Mr. Chen for a term of 10 months commencing from August 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023, subject to extension or early termination, to provide corporate development, project management, and capital financing consultancy services in connection to the Company’s IPO in the United States. Pursuant to the Consultancy Agreement, in addition to a fixed cash remuneration to Mr. Chen, TW HK will also cause TW Cayman to grant stock options to Mr. Chen to acquire an aggregate of 1,080,000 Ordinary Shares of TW Cayman after Company’s IPO, representing 4% of the Ordinary Shares of TW Cayman issued and outstanding prior to the IPO (the “Consultancy Stock Option”). The options granted to Mr. Chen will vest and become exercisable over a period of three years in three equal tranches, on the first, second, and third anniversary of the date of Company’s listing on Nasdaq capital market. All options shall be exercised after three anniversaries and within 60 months of Company’s listing, otherwise the unexercised options will be null and void. The applicable exercise price for the Consultancy Stock Option that to be granted to Mr. Chen is fifty percent (50%) of the IPO Price per Ordinary Shares offered by the Company.

Upon the expiration of the term of the Consultancy Agreement, Mr. Chen and the Company mutually agreed not to extend Consultancy Agreement.

Our Memorandum and Articles of Association

The following are summaries of the material provisions of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and the Companies Act, insofar as they relate to the material terms of our Ordinary Shares. They do not purport to be complete. Reference is made to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part (and which is referred to in this section as, respectively, the “memorandum” and the “articles”).

Meetings of Shareholders

As a Cayman Islands exempted company, we are not obligated by the Companies Act to call shareholders’ annual general meetings; accordingly, we may, but shall not be obliged to, in each year hold a general meeting as an annual general meeting. Any annual general meeting held shall be held at such time and place as may be determined by our board of directors. All general meetings other than annual general meetings shall be called extraordinary general meetings.

The directors may convene a meeting of shareholders whenever they think necessary or desirable. At least 5 clear days’ notice of a general meeting shall be given to shareholders entitled to attend and vote at such meeting. The notice shall specify the place, the day and the hour of the meeting and the general nature of that business. In addition, if a resolution is proposed as a special resolution, the text of that resolution shall be given to all shareholders. Notice of every general meeting shall also be given to the directors. Subject to the Cayman Companies Act and with the consent of the shareholders who, individually or collectively, hold at least 90 percent of the voting rights of all those who have a right to vote at a general meeting, a general meeting may be convened on shorter notice.

Our board of directors must convene a general meeting upon the written requisition of one or more shareholders entitled to attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company holding not less than 10% of the rights to vote at such general meeting in respect to the matter for which the meeting is requested, specifying the purpose of the meeting and signed by each of the shareholders making the requisition. If the directors do not convene such meeting within 21 clear days’ from the date of receipt of the written requisition, those shareholders who requested the meeting or any of them may convene the general meeting themselves within three months after the end of such period of 21 clear days in which case reasonable expenses incurred by them as a result of the directors failing to convene a meeting shall be reimbursed by us.

No business may be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum is present at the time the meeting proceeds to business. A quorum shall consist of the presence (whether in person or represented by proxy) of one shareholder if the Company has one shareholder and two shareholders if the Company has more than one shareholder. If, within fifteen minutes from the time appointed for the meeting, a quorum is not present, the meeting, if convened upon the requisition of shareholders, shall be dissolved. In any other case, it shall stand adjourned to the same time and place seven days hence or to such other time or place as is determined by the directors, and if, at the adjourned meeting, a quorum is not present within fifteen minutes from the time appointed for the meeting, the shareholders present in person or by proxy at the meeting shall be a quorum. Subject to the articles, at every meeting, the shareholders present in person or by proxy may choose someone of their number to be the chairman.

A corporation that is a shareholder shall be deemed for the purpose of our memorandum and articles of association to be present at a general meeting in person if represented by its duly authorized representative. Where a duly authorized representative is present at a meeting that shareholder who is a corporate is deemed to be present in person; and the acts of the duly authorized representative are personal acts of that shareholder.

At any general meeting a resolution put to the vote of the meeting shall be decided on a show of hands, unless a poll is (before, or on, the declaration of the result of the show of hands) demanded by the chairman of the meeting or by one or more shareholders present who together hold not less than ten percent of the voting rights of all those who are entitled to vote on the resolution. Unless a poll is so demanded, a declaration by the chairman as to the result of a resolution and an entry to that effect in the minutes of the meeting, shall be conclusive evidence of the outcome of a show of hands, without proof of the number or proportion of the votes recorded in favor of, or against, that resolution.

If a poll is duly demanded it shall be taken in such manner as the chairman directs and the result of the poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the poll was demanded.

In the case of an equality of votes, whether on a show of hands or on a poll, the chairman of the meeting at which the show of hands takes place or at which the poll is demanded, may, if he wishes, cast a second or casting vote.

Meetings of Directors

The business of our company is managed by the directors. Our directors are free to meet at such times and in such manner and places within or outside the Cayman Islands as the directors determine to be necessary or desirable. The quorum for the transaction of business at a meeting of directors shall be two unless the directors fix some other number. An action that may be taken by the directors at a meeting may also be taken by a resolution of directors consented to in writing by all of the directors.

Winding Up

If we are wound up, the shareholders may, subject to the articles and any other sanction required by the Companies Act, pass a special resolution allowing the liquidator to do either or both of the following:

Calls on Ordinary Shares and forfeiture of Ordinary Shares

Subject to the terms of allotment, the directors may make calls on the shareholders in respect of any monies unpaid on their shares including any premium and each shareholder shall (subject to receiving at least 14 clear days’ notice specifying when and where payment is to be made), pay to us the amount called on his shares. Shareholders registered as the joint holders of a share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect of the share. If a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable the person from whom it is due and payable shall pay interest on the amount unpaid from the day it became due and payable until it is paid at the rate fixed by the terms of allotment of the share or in the notice of the call or if no rate is fixed, at the rate of ten percent per annum. The directors may waive payment of the interest wholly or in part.

We have a first and paramount lien on all shares (whether fully paid up or not) registered in the name of a shareholder (whether solely or jointly with others). The lien is for all monies payable to us by the shareholder or the shareholder’s estate:

At any time the directors may declare any share to be wholly or partly exempt from the lien on shares provisions of the articles.

We may sell, in such manner as the directors may determine, any share on which the sum in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable, if due notice that such sum is payable has been given (as prescribed by the articles) and, within 14 clear days of the date on which the notice is deemed to be given under the articles, such notice has not been complied with.

Redemption, Repurchase and Surrender of Ordinary Shares

We may issue shares on terms that such shares are subject to redemption, at our option, on such terms and in such manner as may be determined, before the issue of such shares, by our board of directors or by an ordinary resolution of our shareholders.

The Companies Act and our memorandum and articles of association permits us to purchase our own shares, subject to certain restrictions and requirements. Subject to the Companies Act and any rights for the time being conferred on the shareholders holding a particular class of shares, we may by action of our directors:

Under the Companies Act, the repurchase of any share may be paid out of our Company’s profits, or out of the share premium account, or out of the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares made for the purpose of such repurchase, or out of capital. If the repurchase proceeds are paid out of our Company’s capital, our Company must, immediately following such payment, be able to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. In addition, under the Companies Act, no such share may be repurchased (1) unless it is fully paid up, and (2) if such repurchase would result in there being no shares outstanding other than shares held as treasury shares. The repurchase of shares may be effected in such manner and upon such terms as may be authorized by or pursuant to the articles. If the articles do not authorize the manner and terms of the purchase, a company shall not repurchase any of its own shares unless the manner and terms of purchase have first been authorized by a resolution of the company. In addition, under the Companies Act and our memorandum and articles of association, our Company may accept the surrender of any fully paid share for no consideration unless, as a result of the surrender, the surrender would result in there being no shares outstanding (other than shares held as treasury shares).

Variations of Rights of Shares

If at any time, our share capital is divided into different classes of shares, all or any of the rights attached to any class of our shares may (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class) be varied with the consent in writing of the holders of two-thirds of the issued shares of that class or with the sanction of a resolution passed by a majority of not less than two-thirds of holders of shares of that class as may be present in person or by proxy at a separate general meeting of the holders of shares of that class.

Unless the terms on which a class of shares was issued state otherwise, the rights conferred on the shareholder holding shares of any class shall not be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further shares ranking pari passu with the existing shares of that class.

Changes in Capital

We may from time to time by an ordinary resolution of our shareholders:

Our shareholders may by special resolution, subject to confirmation by the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands on an application by our company for an order confirming such reduction, reduce its share capital in any manner authorized by the Companies Act.

Inspection of Books and Records

Holders of our Ordinary Shares will have no general right under Cayman Islands law to inspect any account or book or document of the Company except as conferred by the Companies Act or authorized by the Directors or by the Company in general meeting. However, we will provide our shareholders with annual audited financial statements. See “Where You Can Find Additional Information” on page 118.

Rights of Non-Resident or Foreign Shareholders

There are no limitations imposed by our memorandum and articles of association on the rights of non-resident or foreign shareholders to hold or exercise voting rights on our shares. In addition, there are no provisions in our memorandum and articles of association governing the ownership threshold above which shareholder ownership must be disclosed.

Issuance of additional Ordinary Shares

Our articles of association authorizes our Board of Directors to issue additional Ordinary Shares from authorized but unissued shares, to the extent available, from time to time as our board of directors shall determine.

Exempted Company

We are an exempted company with limited liability under the Companies Act. The Companies Act distinguishes between ordinary resident companies and exempted companies. Any company that is registered in the Cayman Islands but conducts business mainly outside of the Cayman Islands may apply to be registered as an exempted company. The requirements for an exempted company are essentially the same as for an ordinary company except that an exempted company:

“Limited liability” means that the liability of each shareholder is limited to the amount unpaid by the shareholder on the shares of the company (except in exceptional circumstances, such as involving fraud, the establishment of an agency relationship or an illegal or improper purpose or other circumstances in which a court may be prepared to pierce or lift the corporate veil).

Differences in Corporate Law

The Companies Act and the laws of the Cayman Islands affecting Cayman Islands companies like us and our shareholders differ from laws applicable to U.S. corporations and their shareholders. Set forth below is a summary of the material differences between the provisions of the laws of the Cayman Islands applicable to us and the laws applicable to companies incorporated in the United States and their shareholders. Set forth below is a summary of certain significant differences between the provisions of the Companies Act applicable to us and the comparable laws applicable to companies incorporated in the State of Delaware in the United States.
