Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company
Implications of Our Being an “Emerging Growth Company”
On September 9, 2022, the SEC adopted inflationadjustments mandated by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As a result, an “emerginggrowth company” will lose its emerging growth company status on the last day of the fiscal year in which it has $1.235 billion ormore in total. As a company with less than $1.235 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growthcompany” as defined in the JOBS Act. “An “emerging growth company” may take advantage of reduced reporting requirementsthat are otherwise applicable to larger public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company, we:
● may present only two years ofaudited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Resultsof Operations;
● are not required to provide adetailed narrative disclosure discussing our compensation principles, objectives and elements and analyzing how those elements fit withour principles and objectives, which is commonly referred to as “compensation discussion and analysis”;
● are not required to obtain anattestation and report from our auditors on our management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting pursuantto the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;
● are not required to obtain a non-bindingadvisory vote from our shareholders on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements (commonly referred to as the “say-on-pay,”“say-on frequency” and “say-on-golden-parachute” votes);
● are exempt from certain executive compensationdisclosure provisions requiring a pay-for-performance graph and CEO pay ratio disclosure;
● are eligible to claim longer phase-inperiods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under §107 of the JOBS Act; and
● will not be required to conduct anevaluation of our internal control over financial reporting until our second annual report on Form 20-F following the effectiveness ofour initial public offering.
As filed with the Securities and Exchange Commissionon November , 2024.
Registration No. 333-[•]
We intend to take advantage of all of these reducedreporting requirements and exemptions, including the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standardsunder §107 of the JOBS Act. Our election to use the phase-in periods may make it difficult to compare our financial statements tothose of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the phase-in periods under §107of the JOBS Act.
Under the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of theabove-described reduced reporting requirements and exemptions until we no longer meet the definition of an emerging growth company. TheJOBS Act provides that we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” at the end of the fiscal year in which the fifthanniversary of our initial sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933,as amended (the “Securities Act”) occurred, if we have more than $1.235 billion in annual revenue, have more than $700 millionin market value of our Class A Ordinary Share held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1 billion in principal amount of non-convertibledebt over a three-year period.
Foreign Private Issuer Status
We are a foreign private issuer within the meaningof the rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). As such, we are exempt from certainprovisions applicable to United States domestic public companies. For example:
● we are not required to provide as manyExchange Act reports, or as frequently, as a domestic public company;
● for interim reporting, we arepermitted to comply solely with our home country requirements, which are less rigorous than the rules that apply to domestic public companies;
● we are not required to providethe same level of disclosure on certain issues, such as executive compensation;
● we are exempt from provisionsof Regulation FD aimed at preventing issuers from making selective disclosures of material information;
● we are not required to complywith the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents, or authorizations in respect of a security registeredunder the Exchange Act; and
● we are not required to complywith Section 16 of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their share ownership and trading activities and establishinginsider liability for profits realized from any “short-swing” trading transaction.
Implications of Being a Controlled Company
Controlled companies are exempt from the majorityof independent director requirements. Controlled companies are subject to an exemption from Nasdaq standards requiring that the boardof a listed company consist of a majority of independent directors within one year of the listing date.
Public Companies that qualify as a “ControlledCompany” with securities listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market (Nasdaq), must comply with the exchange’s continued listing standardsto maintain their listings. Nasdaq has adopted qualitative listing standards. Companies that do not comply with these corporate governancerequirements may lose their listing status. Under the Nasdaq rules, a “controlled company” is a company with more than 50%of its voting power held by a single person, entity or group. Under Nasdaq rules, a controlled company is exempt from certain corporategovernance requirements including:
● the requirement that a majority ofthe board of directors consist of independent directors;
● the requirement that a listed companyhave a nominating and governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’spurpose and responsibilities;
● the requirement that a listed companyhave a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’spurpose and responsibilities; and
● the requirement for an annual performanceevaluation of the nominating and governance committee and compensation committee.
Controlled companies must still comply with theexchange’s other corporate governance standards. These include having an audit committee and the special meetings of independentor non-management directors.

RISK FACTORS
An investment in our Ordinary Shares involvesa 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 Discussionand Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes. If anyof these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be materially and adverselyaffected, which could cause the trading price of our Ordinary Shares to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment.The risks described below and in the documents referenced above are not the only ones that we face. Additional risks not presently knownto us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business. You should only consider investing in our Ordinary Shares ifyou can bear the risk of loss of your entire investment.
Risks Related to Our Business
We have grown rapidly in recent years and havelimited experience operating at our current scale of operations. If we are unable to manage our growth effectively, our brand, companyculture and financial results may suffer.
We have grown rapidly in the past year and ourrecent growth rates and financial results should not be considered indicators of our future performance. In order to effectively manageand leverage our growth, we must continue to expand our sales and marketing, focus on innovative product and website development, andupgrade our management information systems. Our continued growth has in the past and may in the future strain our existing resources andwe may experience ongoing operational difficulties in managing our operations in numerous jurisdictions, including difficulties in recruiting,training and managing a dispersed and growing employee base. Failure to expand and maintain our company culture through growth may harmour future success, including our ability to retain and recruit personnel and to effectively focus on and pursue our corporate goals.
The industry is evolving rapidly and may not evolveas we expect. Even if our net sales continue to grow, our net sales growth rate may decline in the future due to a variety of factors,including macroeconomic factors, changes in supply and supply chain, changes in consumer preferences, increased competition and the maturationof our business. Accordingly, you should not rely on our net sales growth rates for any prior period as an indicator of our future performance.Our overall growth in net sales will depend on many factors, including our ability to:
1) price our products and services effectivelyso that we can attract new customers and expand our relationships with existing customers.
2) accurately forecast our netsales and plan our operating expenses.
3) compete successfully withother companies that are or may be entering our competitive market in the future and respond to developments in those competitors, suchas pricing changes and the introduction of new products and services.
4) Complying with existing andnew laws and regulations that apply to our business.
5) Successfully expanding intoexisting markets and entering new markets, including new geographic areas and categories.
6) The successful introductionof new products and enhancements to our products and services and their features, including in response to new trends or competitive dynamicsor customer needs or preferences.

7) Successfully identifyingand acquiring or investing in businesses, products or technologies that we believe will complement or expand our business.
8) Avoiding disruptions or interruptionsin the distribution of our products and services.
9) Providing quality supportto our customers that meets their needs.
10) Hiring, integrating andretaining talented sales, customer service and other personnel.
11) Effectively managing thegrowth of our business, personnel and operations, including the opening of new showrooms.
12) Effectively managing thecosts associated with our business and operations.
13) Maintaining and enhancingour reputation and brand value.Because of our limited history of operating our business at our current scale, it is difficult to assess our current operations and futureprospects, including our ability to plan for and model future growth. Our limited operating experience at this scale, combined with therapidly evolving nature of the markets in which we sell our products and services, the significant uncertainty about how these marketswill develop and other economic factors beyond our control, reduces our ability to accurately forecast quarterly or annual revenues. Failureto effectively manage our future growth could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We have limited sources of working capital andwill need substantial additional financing.
The working capital required to implement our businessstrategy will most likely be provided by funds obtained through offerings of our equity, debt, debt-linked securities, and/or equity-linkedsecurities, and revenues generated by us. No assurance can be given that we will have revenues sufficient to sustain our operations orthat we would be able to obtain equity/debt financing in the current economic environment. If we do not have sufficient working capitaland are unable to generate sufficient revenues or raise additional funds, we may delay the completion of or significantly reduce the scopeof our current business plan; postpone the hiring of new personnel; or, under certain dire financial circumstances, substantially curtailor cease our operations.
We may need to engage in capital-raising transactionsin the near future. Such financing transactions may well cause substantial dilution to our shareholders and could involve the issuanceof securities with rights senior to the outstanding shares. Our ability to complete additional financings is dependent on, among otherthings, the state of the capital markets at the time of any proposed offering, market reception of the Company and the likelihood of thesuccess of its business model and offering terms. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain any such additional capital throughasset sales, equity or debt financing, or any combination thereof, on satisfactory terms or at all. Additionally, no assurance can begiven that any such financing, if obtained, will be adequate to meet our capital needs and to support our operations. If we do not obtainadequate capital on a timely basis and on satisfactory terms, our revenues and operations and the value of our Ordinary Shares and OrdinaryShare equivalents would be materially negatively impacted and we may cease our operations.

We may not be able to prevent others from unauthorizeduse of our intellectual property, which could harm our business and competitive position.
We rely on a wide portfolio of intellectual propertyto operate our businesses and we may not be able to effectively protect these intellectual property and proprietary rights against infringement,misappropriation or other violation, or efforts to safeguard our intellectual property may be costly.
We rely on a combination of trademark, copyrightand trade secret protection laws in the U.S., the Cayman and other jurisdictions, as well as confidentiality procedures and contractualprovisions, to protect our intellectual property rights. We enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees and any third partieswho may access our proprietary information, and we rigorously control access to our technology and information. However, we cannot guaranteethat we have entered into confidentiality agreements with each party that may have or have had access to our trade secrets or proprietaryinformation. Such agreements may be breached by counterparties, who may disclose our proprietary information, including our trade secrets,or claim ownership in intellectual property that we believe is owned by us, and there may not be adequate remedies available to us forany such breach. In addition, we do not enter into intellectual property assignment agreements in the ordinary course and rely on theintellectual property rights we obtain from our employees by operation of law. The intellectual property rights we obtain by operationof law may not extend to all intellectual property rights developed by our employees and contractors and individuals not subject to inventionassignment agreements may make adverse ownership claims to our current and future intellectual property rights. We therefore may not possessownership rights in all intellectual property rights that we regard as our own or that are necessary for the conduct of our business.
Intellectual property protection may not be sufficientin the regions in which we operate. Our trademarks or other intellectual property rights may be challenged by others through administrativeprocess or litigation, and our pending trademark applications may not be allowed. In addition, policing any unauthorized use of our intellectualproperty is difficult, time-consuming and costly, and the steps we have taken may be inadequate to prevent the misappropriation of ourintellectual property. In the event that we resort to litigation to enforce our intellectual property rights, such litigation could resultin substantial costs and a diversion of our managerial and financial resources. We can provide no assurance that we will prevail in suchlitigation and some courts in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions are less willing or unwilling to protect trade secrets. Furthermore,it is often difficult to maintain and enforce intellectual property rights in the England. Statutory laws and regulations in the Caymanare subject to judicial interpretation and enforcement and may not be applied consistently due to the lack of clear guidance on statutoryinterpretation. Confidentiality and non-compete agreements may be breached by counterparties, and there may not be adequate remedies availableto us for any such breach. Accordingly, we may not be able to effectively protect our intellectual property rights or the intellectualproperties licensed from third parties, or to enforce our contractual rights in the Cayman and other jurisdictions we operate.
In addition, our trade secrets may be leaked orotherwise become available to, or be independently discovered by, our competitors. If any of our trade secrets were to be lawfully obtainedor independently developed by a competitor or other third parties, we would have no right to prevent them from using that technology orinformation to compete with us. Any failure in protecting or enforcing our intellectual property rights could have a material adverseeffect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may not be able to protect and enforce ourtrademarks and trade names, or build name recognition in our markets of interest thereby harming our competitive position.
The registered or unregistered trademarks or tradenames that we own may be challenged, infringed, circumvented, declared generic, lapsed or determined to be infringing on or dilutive ofother marks. We may not be able to protect our rights in these trademarks and trade names, which we need in order to build name recognition.In addition, third parties have filed, and may in the future file, for registration of trademarks similar or identical to our trademarks,thereby impeding our ability to build brand identity and possibly leading to market confusion. If they succeed in registering or developingcommon law rights in such trademarks, and if we are not successful in challenging such rights, we may not be able to use these trademarksto develop brand recognition of our technologies, products or services. In addition, there could be potential trade name or trademarkinfringement claims brought by owners of other registered trademarks or trademarks that incorporate variations of our registered or unregisteredtrademarks or trade names. Further, we may in the future enter into agreements with owners of such third-party trade names or trademarksto avoid potential trademark litigation which may limit our ability to use our trade names or trademarks in certain fields of business.

If we fail to maintain an effective quality control system, ourbusiness could be materially and adversely affected.
We place great emphasis on product quality andadhere to stringent quality control measures and have obtained quality control certifications for our products. To meet our customers’requirements and expectations for the quality and safety of our products, we have adopted a stringent quality control system to ensurethat every step of the production process is strictly monitored and managed. Failure to maintain an effective quality control system orto obtain or renew our quality standards certifications may result in a decrease in demand for our products or cancellation or loss ofpurchase orders from our customers. Moreover, our reputation could be impaired. As a result, our business and results of operations couldbe materially and adversely affected.
Any lack of requisite approvals, licenses or permits applicableto our business operations may harm our business.
We may not be able to obtain all the licensesand approvals that may be deemed necessary to operate our business. Because we operate in multiple jurisdictions, the relevant laws andregulations, as well as their interpretations, could be different from the U.S. This can make it difficult to know which licenses andapprovals are necessary, or the processes for obtaining them. For these same reasons, we also cannot be certain that we will be able tomaintain the licenses and approvals that we have previously obtained, or that once they expire we will be able to renew them. We cannotbe sure that our interpretations of the rules and their exemptions have always been or will be consistent with those of the local regulators.
As we expand our businesses, we may be requiredto obtain new licenses and will be subject to additional laws and regulations in the markets we plan to operate in. If we fail to obtain,maintain or renew any required licenses or approvals or make any necessary filings or are found to require licenses or approvals thatwe believed were not necessary or we were exempted from obtaining, we may be subject to various penalties, such as confiscation of therevenues or assets that were generated through the unlicensed business activities, imposition of fines, suspension or cancelation of theapplicable license, written reprimands, termination of third-party arrangements, criminal prosecution and the discontinuation or restrictionof our operations. Any such penalties may disrupt our business operations and materially and adversely affect our business, financialcondition and results of operations.
If we fail to maintain and enhance our brand,our business, prospects and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.
We believe that maintaining and enhancing ourbrand is significantly important to the success of our business. A well-recognized brand is critical to increasing the number of buyersand sellers and the level of their engagement and, in turn, enhancing the attractiveness of our products and services to them. Despiteconducting a number of brand promotion and recognition activities from time to time, we cannot assure you that these activities will besuccessful in the future or that we will be able to achieve the brand promotion effects that we expect. In addition, our competitors mayincrease the intensity of their marketing campaigns, which may force us to increase our advertising spend to maintain our brand awareness.If our brand is harmed or we are forced to increase our marketing expenses, our business, prospects, financial condition and results ofoperations could be materially and adversely affected.

If we are unable to maintain, train and buildan effective international sales and marketing infrastructure, we will not be able to commercialize and grow our brand successfully.
As we grow, we may not be able to secure sales personnelor organizations that are adequate in number or expertise to successfully market and sell our brand and products on a global scale. Wepresently rely on individual independent sales representatives and an in-house sales team to market and sell our products. If we are unableto expand our sales and marketing capability, train our sales force effectively or provide any other capabilities necessary to commercializeour brand internationally, we will need to contract with third parties to market and sell our brand, which will be an additional expense.If we are unable to establish and maintain compliant and adequate sales and marketing capabilities, we may not be able to increase ourrevenue, may generate increased expenses, and may not continue to be profitable.
Failure to comply with privacy laws and regulationsand failure to adequately protect customer data could harm our business, damage our reputation and result in the loss of customers.
Federal and state regulations may govern the collection,use, sharing and security of data that we receive from our customers. In addition, we have and post on our website our own privacy policiesand practices concerning the collection, use and disclosure of customer data. Any failure, or perceived failure, by us to comply withour posted privacy policies or with any data-related consent orders, U.S. Federal Trade Commission requirements or other federal, stateor international privacy-related laws and regulations could result in proceedings or actions against us by governmental entities or others,which could potentially harm our business. Further, failure or perceived failure to comply with our policies or applicable requirementsrelated to the collection, use or security of personal information or other privacy-related matters could damage our reputation and resultin a loss of customers. The regulatory framework for privacy issues is currently evolving and is likely to remain uncertain for the foreseeablefuture.
Our strategic investments or acquisitions may be unsuccessful.
We may acquire other assets, technologies, productsand businesses that are complementary to our existing business or otherwise. We may also enter into strategic partnerships or cooperationagreements with other businesses to expand our marketplace. Negotiating these transactions can be time-consuming, challenging and expensive,and our ability to close these transactions may often be subject to regulatory approvals that are beyond our control. In addition, investmentsand acquisitions could result in the use of substantial amounts of cash, potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, significantamortization expenses related to intangible assets, significant diversion of management attention and exposure to potential unknown liabilitiesof the acquired business. Moreover, the cost of identifying and consummating investments and acquisitions and integrating the acquiredbusinesses into ours may be significant, and the integration of acquired businesses may be disruptive to our existing business operations.Consequently, these transactions, even if undertaken and announced, may not close. For one or more of those transactions, we may issueadditional equity securities that would dilute our shareholders’ ownership interest, use cash that we may need in the future tooperate our business, incur debt on terms unfavorable to us or that we are unable to repay, incur expenses or substantial liabilities,encounter difficulties retaining key employees of the acquired company or integrating diverse software codes or business cultures, encounterdifficulties in assimilating acquired operations, encounter diversion of management’s attention to other business concerns, andbecome subject to adverse tax consequences, substantial depreciation, impairment losses, or deferred compensation charges. If our investmentsand acquisitions are not successful, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be materially and adverselyaffected.
We depend upon talented employees, includingour senior management and IT specialists, to grow, operate and improve our business, and if we are unable to retain and motivate our personneland attract new talent, we may not be able to grow effectively.
Our success depends on our continued ability toidentify, hire, develop, motivate and retain talented employees. Our ability to execute and manage our operations efficiently is dependentupon contributions from all of our employees. Competition for senior management and key IT personnel is intense, and the pool of qualifiedcandidates is relatively limited. From time to time, some of our key personnel may choose to leave our company for various reasons, includingpersonal career development plans or alternative compensation packages. An inability to retain the services of our key personnel or properlymanage the working relationship among our management and employees may expose us to legal or administrative action or adverse publicity,which could adversely affect our reputation, business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Training new employees with no prior relevantexperience could be time consuming and requires a significant amount of resources. We may also need to increase the compensation we payto our employees from time to time in order to retain them. If competition in our industry intensifies, it may be increasingly difficultfor us to hire, motivate and retain highly skilled personnel due to significant market demand. If we fail to attract additional highlyskilled personnel or retain or motivate our existing personnel, we may be unable to pursue growth, and our business, prospects, financialcondition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Employee misconduct is difficult to determine and detect and couldharm our reputation and business.
We face a risk that may arise out of our employees’lack of knowledge or willful, negligent or involuntary violations of laws, rules and regulations or other misconduct. Misconduct by employeescould involve, among other things, the improper use or disclosure of confidential information (including trade secrets), embezzlementor fraud, any of which could result in regulatory sanctions or fines imposed on us, as well as cause us serious reputational or financialharm. We have experienced fraudulent misconduct by employees in the past, which to date has not caused any material harm to our business.However, any such further misconduct in the future may result in unknown and unmanaged risks and losses. We have internal audit, securityand other procedures in place that are designed to monitor our employees’ conduct. However, despite these controls and proceduresthere can be no assurance that we will discover employee misconduct in a timely and effective manner, if at all. It is not always possibleto guard against employee misconduct and ensure full compliance with our risk management and information policies. The direct and indirectcosts of employee misconduct can be substantial, and our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be materiallyand adversely affected.
Natural disasters, pandemics, epidemics, acts of war, terroristattacks and other events could materially and adversely affect our business.
Severe weather conditions and other natural orman-made disasters, including storms, floods, fires, earthquakes, epidemics, pandemics, conflicts, unrest, or terrorist attacks, may disruptour business and result in decreased revenues. Customers may reduce their demand for logistics services or shipments, or our costs tooperate our business may increase, either of which could have a material adverse effect on us. Any such event affecting one of our majorfacilities could result in a significant interruption in or disruption of our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Under the strong supervision of the government,our business may be controlled.
The Company’s business segments may be subjectto various government and regulatory interference in the provinces in which they operate. The Company could be subject to regulation byvarious political and regulatory entities, including various local and municipal agencies and government sub-divisions. The Company mayincur increased costs necessary to comply with existing and newly adopted laws and regulations or penalties for any failure to comply.Additionally, the governmental and regulatory interference could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continueto offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

Furthermore, it is uncertain when and whetherthe Company will be required to obtain permission from the government to list on U.S. exchanges in the future, and even when such permissionis obtained, whether it will be denied or rescinded. Although the Company is currently not required to obtain permission from any of thelocal government to obtain such permission and has not received any denial to list on the U.S. exchange, our operations could be adverselyaffected, directly or indirectly, by existing or future laws and regulations relating to its business or industry.
Risks Related to the Offering and Our OrdinaryShares
The initial public offering price of our OrdinaryShares may not be indicative of the market price of our Ordinary Shares after this offering. In addition, an active, liquid and orderlytrading market for our Ordinary Shares may not develop or be maintained, and our share price may be volatile.
Prior to the completion of this offering, our OrdinaryShares were not traded on any market. Any active, liquid and orderly trading market for our Ordinary Shares may not develop or be maintainedafter this offering. Active, liquid and orderly trading markets usually result in less price volatility and more efficiency in carryingout investors’ purchase and sale orders. The market price of our Ordinary Shares could vary significantly as a result of a numberof factors, some of which are beyond our control. In the event of a drop in the market price of our Ordinary Shares, you could lose asubstantial part or all of your investment in our Ordinary Shares. The initial public offering price will be determined by us, based onnumerous factors and may not be indicative of the market price of our Ordinary Shares after this offering. Consequently, you may not beable to sell our Ordinary Shares at a price equal to or greater than the price paid by you in this offering.
The following factors could affect our share price:
• our operating and financial performance;
• quarterly variations in the rate of growthof our financial indicators, such as net income per share, net income and revenues;
• the public reaction to our press releases,our other public announcements and our filings with the SEC;
• strategic actions by our competitors;
• changes in revenue or earnings estimates,or changes in recommendations or withdrawal of research coverage, by equity research analysts;
• speculation in the press or investment community;
• the failure of research analysts to coverour Ordinary Shares;
• sales of our Ordinary Shares by us or othershareholders, or the perception that such sales may occur;
• changes in accounting principles, policies,guidance, interpretations or standards;
• additions or departures of key managementpersonnel;
• actions by our shareholders;
• domestic and international economic, legaland regulatory factors unrelated to our performance; and
• the realization of any risks described underthis “Risk Factors” section.
The stock markets in general have experienced extremevolatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adverselyaffect the trading price of our Ordinary Shares. Securities class action litigation has often been instituted against companies followingperiods of volatility in the overall market and in the market price of a company’s securities. Such litigation, if instituted againstus, could result in very substantial costs, diver our management’s attention and resources and harm our business, operating resultsand financial condition.

There may not be an active, liquid trading marketfor our Ordinary Shares.
Prior to the completion of this offering, there hasbeen no public market for our Ordinary Shares. An active trading market for our Ordinary Shares may not develop or be sustained followingthis offering. You may not be able to sell your shares at the market price, if at all, if trading in our shares is not active. The initialpublic offering price was determined by negotiations between us and our advisors based upon a number of factors. The initial public offeringprice may not be indicative of prices that will prevail in the trading market.
Because we do not expect to pay dividends in theforeseeable future after this offering, you must rely on a price appreciation of the Ordinary Shares for a return on your investment.
We currently intend to retain most, if not all, ofour available funds and any future earnings after this offering to fund the development and growth of our business. As a result, we donot expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Therefore, you should not rely on an investment in the Ordinary Sharesas a source for any future dividend income.
A sale or perceived sale of a substantial numberof our Ordinary Shares may cause the price of our Ordinary Shares to decline.
If our shareholders sell substantial amounts of ourOrdinary Shares in the public market, the market price of our Ordinary Shares could fall. Moreover, the perceived risk of this potentialdilution could cause shareholders to attempt to sell their shares and investors to short our Ordinary Shares. These sales also make itmore difficult for us to sell equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate.
There can be no assurance that we will not bea passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for United States federal income tax purposes for any taxable year, which couldsubject United States holders of our Ordinary Shares to significant adverse United States federal income tax consequences.
A non-United States corporation will be a passiveforeign investment company, or PFIC, for United States federal income tax purposes for any taxable year if either (i) at least 75% ofits gross income for such taxable year is passive income or (ii) at least 50% of the value of its assets (based on average of the quarterlyvalues of the assets) during such year is attributable to assets that that produce or are held for the production of passive income. Basedon the current and anticipated value of our assets and the composition of our income assets, we do not expect to be a PFIC for UnitedStates federal income tax purposes for our current taxable year ended December 31, 2021 or in the foreseeable future. However, the determinationof whether or not we are a PFIC according to the PFIC rules is made on an annual basis and depend on the composition of our income andassets and the value of our assets from time to time. Therefore, changes in the composition of our income or assets or value of our assetsmay cause us to become a PFIC. The determination of the value of our assets (including goodwill not reflected on our balance sheet) maybe based, in part, on the quarterly market value of Ordinary Shares, which is subject to change and may be volatile.
The classification of certain of our income as activeor passive, and certain of our assets as producing active or passive income, and hence whether we are or will become a PFIC, depends onthe interpretation of certain United States Treasury Regulations as well as certain IRS guidance relating to the classification of assetsas producing active or passive income. Such regulations guidance is potentially subject to different interpretations. If due to differentinterpretations of such regulations and guidance the percentage of our passive income or the percentage of our assets treated as producingpassive income increases, we may be a PFIC in one of more taxable years.

If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during whicha United States person holds Ordinary Shares, certain adverse United States federal income tax consequences could apply to such UnitedStates person.
For as long as we are an emerging growth company,we will not be required to comply with certain reporting requirements, including those relating to accounting standards and disclosureabout our executive compensation, that apply to other public companies.
We are classified as an “emerging growth company”under the JOBS Act. For as long as we are an emerging growth company, which may be up to five full fiscal years, unlike other public companies,we will not be required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on management’s assessment ofthe effectiveness of our system of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (ii)comply with any new requirements adopted by the PCAOB requiring mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s reportin which the auditor would be required to provide additional information about the audit and the financial statements of the issuer, (iii)provide certain disclosure regarding executive compensation required of larger public companies, or (iv) hold nonbinding advisory voteson executive compensation. We will remain an emerging growth company for up to five years, although we will lose that status sooner ifwe have more than $1.235 billion of revenues in a fiscal year, have more than $700 million in market value of our Ordinary Shares heldby non-affiliates, or issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.
To the extent that we rely on any of the exemptionsavailable to emerging growth companies, you will receive less information about our executive compensation and internal control over financialreporting than issuers that are not emerging growth companies. If some investors find our Ordinary Shares to be 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.
If we fail to establish and maintain proper internalfinancial reporting controls, our ability to produce accurate financial statements or comply with applicable regulations could be impaired.
Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act,we will be required to file a report by our management on our internal control over financial reporting, including an attention reporton internal control over financial reporting issued by our independent registered public accounting firm. However, while we remain anemerging growth company, we will not be required to include an attestation report on internal control over financial reporting issuedby our independent registered public accounting firm. The presence of material weakness in internal control over financial reporting couldresult in financial statement errors, which, in turn, could lead to error our financial reports and/or delays in our financial reporting,which could require us to restate our operating results. We might not identify one or more material weaknesses in our internal controlsin connection with evaluating our compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. In order to maintain and improve the effectivenessof our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting. We will need to expend significant resourcesand provide significant management oversight. Implementing any appropriate changes to our internal controls may require specific compliancetraining of our directors and employees, entail substantial costs in order to modify our existing accounting systems, take a significantperiod of time to complete and divert management’s attention from other business concerns. These changes may not, however, be effectivein maintaining the adequacy of our internal control.
If we are unable to conclude that we have effectiveinternal controls over financial reporting, investors may lose confidence in our operating results, the price of the Ordinary Shares coulddecline and we may be subject to litigation or regulatory enforcement actions. In addition, if we are unable to meet the requirementsof Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Ordinary Shares may not be able to remain listed on the exchange.

Nasdaq may apply additional and more stringentcriteria for our initial and continued listing because we plan to have a small public offering and insiders will hold a large portionof the company’s listed securities.
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5101 provides Nasdaq withbroad discretionary authority over the initial and continued listing of securities in Nasdaq and Nasdaq may use such discretion to denyinitial listing, apply additional or more stringent criteria for the initial or continued listing of particular securities, or suspendor delist particular securities based on any event, condition, or circumstance that exists or occurs that makes initial or continued listingof the securities on Nasdaq inadvisable or unwarranted in the opinion of Nasdaq, even though the securities meet all enumerated criteriafor initial or continued listing on Nasdaq. In addition, Nasdaq has used its discretion to deny initial or continued listing or to applyadditional and more stringent criteria in the instances, including but not limited to: (i) where the company engaged an auditor that hasnot been subject to an inspection by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”), an auditor that PCAOB cannotinspect, or an auditor that has not demonstrated sufficient resources, geographic reach, or experience to adequately perform the company’saudit; (ii) where the company planned a small public offering, which would result in insiders holding a large portion of the company’slisted securities. Nasdaq was concerned that the offering size was insufficient to establish the company’s initial valuation, andthere would not be sufficient liquidity to support a public market for the company; and (iii) where the company did not demonstrate sufficientnexus to the U.S. capital market, including having no U.S. shareholders, operations, or members of the board of directors or management.Our public offering will be relatively small, and our company’s insiders will hold a large portion of the company’s listedsecurities. Nasdaq might apply the additional and more stringent criteria for our initial and continued listing, which might cause delayor even denial of our listing application.
If we cannot satisfy, or continue to satisfy,the initial listing requirements and other rules of Nasdaq Capital Market, although we exempt from certain corporate governance standardsapplicable to US issuers as a Foreign Private Issuer, our securities may not be listed or may be delisted, which could negatively impactthe price of our securities and your ability to sell them.
We will seek to have our securities approved forlisting on the Nasdaq Capital Market upon consummation of this offering. We cannot assure you that we will be able to meet those initiallisting requirements at that time. Even if our securities are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, we cannot assure you that our securitieswill continue to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
In addition, following this offering, in order tomaintain our listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, we will be required to comply with certain rules of Nasdaq Capital Market, includingthose regarding minimum stockholders’ equity, minimum share price, and certain corporate governance requirements. Even if we initiallymeet the listing requirements and other applicable rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market, we may not be able to continue to satisfy theserequirements and applicable rules.

Elderly Care Service Industry Pain Points
1. Poor matching between technology and demand:
Low acceptance among the elderly: Althoughsmart elderly care products continue to emerge, many elderly people have a low acceptance of new technologies and are unwilling or unableto use smart devices. For example, the design of some wearable devices does not fully consider the actual needs and operating habits ofthe elderly, resulting in the elderly not liking to wear them.
Product function and demand misalignment: Smartelderly care products on the market are mostly concentrated in functions such as voice calls for help and motion detection. The productsare highly homogenized and fail to truly meet the core needs of the elderly, such as the accuracy of health monitoring and the timelinessof emergency assistance.
2. Insufficient data integration and sharing:
Serious data island phenomenon: The dataof different elderly care institutions and enterprises are scattered, and there is a lack of unified standards and platforms for integration,which makes it impossible to effectively share and utilize data. This not only affects the efficiency and quality of elderly care services,but also restricts the development of the smart elderly care industry.
Data security risks: As the smart elderlycare platform becomes more dependent on data, data security issues are becoming increasingly prominent. How to protect the personal privacyand data security of the elderly is an important issue that the smart elderly care platform needs to solve.
Imperfect service system: At present, theservice system of the smart elderly care service platform has not been fully established, and there is a lack of unified service standardsand specifications. This leads to uneven service quality and difficulty in meeting the diverse needs of the elderly.
As filed with the Securities and Exchange Commissionon November , 2024.
Registration No. 333-[•]
Unclear profit model: The constructionand operation of the smart elderly care service platform requires a large amount of capital investment, but because the profit model isnot clear, many platforms face the problem of profitability difficulties. This makes it difficult for the platform to continue to operateand develop.
3. Insufficient policy support and supervision:
Policy guidance is not clear enough: Althoughthe government has introduced a series of policies to promote the development of the smart elderly care industry, the guiding role ofthe policy is not clear enough in the specific implementation process.

Imperfect training system: The trainingsystem for practitioners of smart elderly care service platforms is not yet perfect, resulting in uneven professional quality and servicelevels of practitioners. This affects the overall service quality and user experience of the platform.
5. Unbalanced regional development:
Obvious urban-rural differences: The developmentof smart elderly care service platforms in urban areas is relatively fast, while smart elderly care services in rural areas are relativelylagging behind. Due to the limitations of economic conditions, infrastructure and other factors, it is difficult for the elderly in ruralareas to enjoy high-quality smart elderly care services.
6. Insufficient capital investment:
High construction cost: The constructionof smart elderly care service platforms requires a lot of capital investment, including the purchase of hardware equipment, software development,personnel training and other expenses.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS
This section describes the material U.S. federalincome and estate tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of shares of common stock by a non-U.S. holder. You are a non-U.S.holder if you are a beneficial owner of shares of our common stock and you are, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:
| ● | a nonresident alien individual, |
| ● | a foreign corporation, or |
| ● | an estate or trust that in either case is not subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis onincome or gain from stock. |
This section does not consider the specific factsand circumstances that may be relevant to a particular non-U.S. holder and does not address the Medicare tax on net investment incomeor the treatment of a non-U.S. holder under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction. In addition, this section addressesonly shares of our common stock that are held as capital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes (generally, property held for investment).This section is based on the tax laws of the United States, including the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), existing andproposed regulations, and administrative and judicial interpretations, all as currently in effect. These laws are subject to change, possiblyon a retroactive basis.
If an entity or arrangement treated as a partnershipfor U.S. federal income tax purposes holds our common stock, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner will generally dependon the status of the partner and the tax treatment of the partnership. A partner in an entity or arrangement treated as a partnershipfor U.S. federal income tax purposes holding our common stock should consult its tax advisors with regard to the U.S. federal income taxtreatment of the ownership and disposition of our common stock.
You should consult a tax advisor regarding theU.S. federal tax consequences of acquiring, holding and disposing of common stock in your particular circumstances, as well as any taxconsequences that may arise under the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction.
Dividends
We currently do not anticipate paying any dividendswith respect to our common stock. However, if we make a distribution of cash or other property (other than certain distributions of ourcommon stock) in respect of our common stock, the distribution generally will be treated as a dividend to the extent of our current oraccumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Any portion of a distribution that exceeds ourcurrent and accumulated earnings and profits will generally be treated first as a tax-free return of capital, on a share-by-share basis,to the extent of your tax basis in our common stock (and will reduce your basis in such common stock), and, to the extent such portionexceeds your tax basis in our common stock, the excess will be treated as gain from the taxable disposition of the common stock, the taxtreatment of which is discussed below under “—Gain on Disposition of Common Stock.”
Except as described below, dividends paid to youon common stock are subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax at a 30% rate or at a lower rate if you are eligible for the benefitsof an income tax treaty that provides for a lower rate. Even if you are eligible for a lower treaty rate, the withholding agent will generallybe required to withhold at a 30% rate (rather than the lower treaty rate) on dividend payments to you, unless you have furnished to thewithholding agent:

Except as described below, dividends paid to youon common stock are subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax at a 30% rate or at a lower rate if you are eligible for the benefitsof an income tax treaty that provides for a lower rate. Even if you are eligible for a lower treaty rate, the withholding agent will generallybe required to withhold at a 30% rate (rather than the lower treaty rate) on dividend payments to you, unless you have furnished to thewithholding agent:
| ● | a valid U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-8 or an acceptable substituteform upon which you certify, under penalties of perjury, your status as a non-U.S. person and your entitlement to the lowertreaty rate with respect to such payments, or |
| ● | in the case of paymentsmade outside the United States to an offshore account (generally,an account maintained by you at an office or branch of a bank or other financial institution at any location outside the United States),other documentary evidence establishing your entitlement to the lower treaty rate in accordance with U.S. Treasury regulations. |
If you are eligible for a reduced rate of U.S.withholding tax under a tax treaty, you may obtain a refund of any amounts withheld in excess of that rate by filing a refund claim withthe IRS.
If dividends paid to you are “effectivelyconnected” with your conduct of a trade or business within the United States, and, if required by a tax treaty, the dividends areattributable to a permanent establishment that you maintain in the United States, withholding agents are generally not required to withholdtax from the dividends, provided that you have furnished to the withholding agent a valid IRS Form W-8ECI or an acceptable substituteform upon which you certify under penalties of perjury that:
| ● | you are a non-U.S. person, and |
| ● | the dividends are effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business within the United Statesand are includible in your gross income. |
“Effectively connected” dividendsare taxed on a net income basis at rates applicable to U.S. citizens, resident aliens and domestic U.S. corporations.
If you are a corporate non-U.S. holder,“effectively connected” dividends that you receive may also, under certain circumstances, be subject to an additional “branchprofits tax” at a 30% rate or at a lower rate if you are eligible for the benefits of an income tax treaty that provides for a lowerrate.
Gain on Disposition of Common Stock
You generally will not be subject to U.S. federalincome tax on gain that you recognize on the sale or other disposition of our common stock unless:
| ● | the gain is “effectively connected” with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States,and the gain is attributable to a permanent establishment that you maintain in the United States, if that is required by an applicableincome tax treaty as a condition for subjecting the holder to U.S. taxation on a net income basis; |
| ● | you are an individual, you are present in the United States for 183 or more days in the taxable year of thedisposition and certain other conditions exist; or |
| ● | we are or have been a “U.S. real property holding corporation” (as described below), at any timewithin the five-year period preceding the disposition or your holding period, whichever period is shorter, you are not eligible for atreaty exemption, and either (i) our common stock is not regularly traded on an established securities market (such as The NASDAQ)during the calendar year in which the disposition occurs or (ii) you owned or are deemed to have owned, at any time within the five-yearperiod preceding the disposition or your holding period, whichever period is shorter, more than 5% of our common stock. |

If the gain from the disposition of shares ofour common stock is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by a tax treaty,the gain is attributable to a permanent establishment that you maintain in the United States), you will be subject to tax on the net gainderived from the disposition at rates applicable to U.S. citizens, resident aliens and domestic U.S. corporations. If you are a corporate non-U.S. holder,“effectively connected” gains that you recognize may also, under certain circumstances, be subject to an additional “branchprofits tax” at a 30% rate or at a lower rate if you are eligible for the benefits of an income tax treaty that provides for a lowerrate. If you are an individual non-U.S. holder described in the second bullet point immediately above, you will be subject to a flat 30%tax (unless an applicable income tax treaty provides otherwise) on the gain derived from the disposition, which may be offset by U.S.source capital losses, even though you are not considered a resident of the United States.
We will be a U.S. real property holding corporationif, on any applicable determination date, the fair market value of our “U.S. real property interests,” as defined in the Codeand applicable U.S. Treasury regulations, equals or exceeds 50% of the aggregate fair market value of our worldwide real property interestsand our other assets used or held for use in a trade or business (all as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes). Although therecan be no assurance, we believe that we are not currently, and we do not anticipate becoming, a “U.S. real property holding corporation”for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As discussed above, however, even if we are or become a U.S. real property holding corporation,you will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain that you recognize on the sale or other disposition of our common stockby reason of our status as a U.S. real property holding corporation, provided that (i) our common stock is regularly traded on anestablished securities market (such as The NASDAQ) during the calendar year in which the disposition occurs and (ii) you have notowned or have been deemed to have owned, at any time within the five-year period preceding the disposition or your holding period, whicheverperiod is shorter, more than 5% of our common stock. If, however, you are subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain that you recognizeon the sale or other disposition of our common stock by reason of our status as a U.S. real property holding corporation (i.e., the requirementsin the proviso in the preceding sentence are not satisfied), such gain would generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax (but notbranch profits tax) in the same manner as “effectively connected” gain discussed above, and a 15% withholding tax may applyto the gross proceeds from such disposition (but not if our common stock is regularly traded on an established securities market).
FATCA Withholding
Pursuant to sections 1471 through 1474 of theCode, commonly known as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”), a 30% withholding tax (“FATCA withholding”)may be imposed on certain payments to you or to certain foreign financial institutions, investment funds and other non-U.S. personsreceiving payments on your behalf if you or such persons fail to comply with certain information reporting requirements. Payments of dividendsthat you receive in respect of our common stock could be affected by this withholding if you are subject to the FATCA information reportingrequirements and fail to comply with them or if you hold our common stock through a non-U.S. person (e.g., a foreign bank orbroker) that fails to comply with these requirements (even if payments to you would not otherwise have been subject to FATCA withholding).You should consult your own tax advisors regarding the relevant U.S. law and other official guidance on FATCA withholding.

Federal Estate Taxes
If you hold our common stock at the time of yourdeath, it will be included in your gross estate for U.S. federal estate tax purposes, unless an applicable estate tax treaty providesotherwise.
Backup Withholding and Information Reporting
We and other payors are required to report paymentsof dividends on our common stock on IRS Form 1042-S even if the payments are exempt from withholding. You are otherwise generallyexempt from backup withholding and information reporting requirements with respect to dividend payments and the payment of the proceedsfrom the sale of our common stock effected at a U.S. office of a broker provided that either (i) you have furnished a valid IRS Form W-8 orother documentation upon which the payor or broker may rely to treat the payments as made to a non-U.S. person, or (ii) youotherwise establish an exemption.
Payment of the proceeds from the sale of our commonstock effected at a foreign office of a broker generally will not be subject to information reporting or backup withholding. However,a sale effected at a foreign office of a broker could be subject to information reporting in the same manner as a sale within the UnitedStates (and in certain cases may be subject to backup withholding as well) if (i) the broker has certain connections to the United States,(ii) the proceeds or confirmation are sent to the United States or (iii) the sale has certain other specified connections with the UnitedStates.
Any amounts withheld under the backup withholdingrules will generally be allowed as a credit against your U.S. federal income tax liability (if any), and you generally will be entitledto a refund of any amounts withheld that exceed your U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnishedto the IRS.
