Overview of Our Company

Our Business

SELAED is an exempted limited liability company incorporated on June 25, 2023 under the laws of the Cayman Islands. As a holding company with no significant business of its own, SELAED conducts its business primarily through its wholly-owned subsidiary, SELAED HK, a limited liability company incorporated in Hong Kong.

SELAED HK is a comprehensive advisory service company centered on Chinese investors, mainly providing clients with securities-related services, investment advisory services, corporate advisory services and asset management services. SELAED HK strictly complies with the internal supervision and risk control requirements of the Hong Kong Securities Regulatory Commission to maximize the security of investors' assets.

SELAED HK's services provide investors with advisory advice on the purchase and sale of more than 10,000 listed securities and their derivatives listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKSE), New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), Nasdaq, Shanghai Stock Exchange and Shenzhen Stock Exchange. In addition, the company also provides advisory services for Hong Kong IPO underwriting, Hong Kong IPO public offering applications and international placement subscriptions, Hong Kong IPO margin financing services, Hong Kong pre-IPO securities trading and US IPO subscriptions.

Our clients are primarily Chinese investors residing in Asia and institutional clients in Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand, and we currently have over 1,000 active clients.

Our Competitive Advantages

We believe that the following advantages contribute to SELEAD HK's success and differentiate it from its competitors:

SELEAD HK offers a diversified product portfolio to advise clients when trading global financial markets. Clients can also use SELEAD HK's online platform to consult various financial products in different regions, including Hong Kong stocks, US stocks, China A shares, ETFs, warrants and redeemable CBBCs. We plan to enter more stock markets, including Singapore, the UK and Japan, to expand investors' investment scope.

SELEAD HK offers state-of-the-art technology and will provide our clients with an excellent user experience. During the period when China implemented travel restrictions to curb the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, SELEAD HK was one of the few online advisory providers that successfully seized the opportunity to bring state-of-the-art, contactless and borderless online services to Chinese investors in the post-pandemic era. Our users can use our application, which is remotely accessible from any mobile device, tablet or desktop, and is designed to be secure and easy to use, with a bilingual user interface and fast and efficient order execution to provide an excellent user experience. SELEAD HK's functionality will be enhanced from time to time to meet the needs of our clients.

We believe that we are well positioned in the fast-growing financial services sector with huge growth demand. SELEAD HK is one of the few online service platforms centered on Chinese investors, providing diversified products and services. In the long run, Chinese investors are shifting their investments from traditional real estate to financial assets, and from local to global.

We have experienced management and a talented team. We have a skilled and experienced management team. Most team members have more than 10 years of experience in the financial and technology industries, and have extensive expertise in formulating corporate strategies, monitoring compliance, decision-making, credit risk management, and daily operations. We believe that our experienced and talented management team will be able to collaborate and lead SELEAD HK to achieve our growth goals.

Our Corporate Structure

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

Implications of Our Being an “Emerging Growth Company”

On September 9, 2022, the SEC adopted inflation adjustments mandated by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As a result, an “emerging growth company” will lose its emerging growth company status on the last day of the fiscal year in which it has $1.235 billion or more in total. As a company with less than $1.235 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act. “An “emerging growth company” may take advantage of reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable to larger public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company, we:

● may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations;

● are not required to provide a detailed narrative disclosure discussing our compensation principles, objectives and elements and analyzing how those elements fit with our principles and objectives, which is commonly referred to as “compensation discussion and analysis”;

● are not required to obtain an attestation and report from our auditors on our management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

● are not required to obtain a non-binding advisory 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 compensation disclosure provisions requiring a pay-for-performance graph and CEO pay ratio disclosure;

● are eligible to claim longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under §107 of the JOBS Act; and

● will not be required to conduct an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting until our second annual report on Form 20-F following the effectiveness of our initial public offering.

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

Under the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of the above-described reduced reporting requirements and exemptions until we no longer meet the definition of an emerging growth company. The JOBS Act provides that we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” at the end of the fiscal year in which the fifth anniversary 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 million in market value of our Class A Ordinary Share held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1 billion in principal amount of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.

Foreign Private Issuer Status

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

● we are not required to provide as many Exchange Act reports, or as frequently, as a domestic public company;

● for interim reporting, we are permitted 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 provide the same level of disclosure on certain issues, such as executive compensation;

● we are exempt from provisions of Regulation FD aimed at preventing issuers from making selective disclosures of material information;

OFFERINGS

Below is a summary of the terms of the offering:

RISK FACTORS

Our risks and challenges

Risks related to our business and industry

Risks and uncertainties related to our business and industry include, but are not limited to, the following:

The securities advisory industry in Hong Kong is highly competitive and SELEAD HK is subject to extensive and evolving regulatory requirements in the jurisdictions in which it operates.

We may not be able to obtain or maintain all necessary licenses, permits and approvals, or make all necessary registrations and filings for our business activities in multiple jurisdictions and with residents of those jurisdictions, particularly in China or with residents of China.

We may have difficulty retaining existing clients or attracting new clients. We may not be able to retain existing clients or attract new clients, or we may not be able to provide services to meet the changing needs of our clients.

The level of commissions and rates for our services may decline in the future. Any significant reduction in commissions or rates could reduce our profitability.

Risks Related to Doing Business in Jurisdictions Where We Operate

We are subject to risks and uncertainties generally associated with doing business in Hong Kong, including, but not limited to, the following factors:

Substantially all of our operations are in Hong Kong. However, legal and operational risks associated with operations in China may also apply to operations in Hong Kong. The PRC government’s policies, regulations, rules and law enforcement may also change rapidly and with little prior notice, and our assertions and beliefs about the risks imposed by the PRC legal and regulatory system cannot be certain.

The enactment of the Hong Kong National Security Law of the People’s Republic of China may affect our Hong Kong operating subsidiaries.

After the completion of this offering, the common stock may be delisted under the HFCA if the PCAOB is unable to inspect our auditors. Delisting of the common stock, or the threat of such delisting, could have a material adverse effect on the value of your investment. In December 2022, an omnibus spending bill was signed into law that included provisions enacted under the AHFCAA to accelerate the timeline for implementation of the trading ban under the HFCA from three consecutive years to two consecutive years. On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a ruling that due to the positions of authorities in various jurisdictions, the PCAOB is unable to conduct a thorough inspection or investigation of PCAOB-registered accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong. The PCAOB lists accounting firms headquartered in mainland China or Hong Kong in its ruling report. This list does not include our auditors. Although our auditors are located in the United States and registered with the PCAOB and subject to PCAOB inspections, if the PCAOB later determines that it is unable to thoroughly inspect or investigate our auditors, such lack of inspection may result in the delisting of our securities from the stock exchange.

We may be subject to certain new laws and regulations in China, such as cybersecurity, data protection and overseas listings. We may be subject to various laws and other obligations in China, such as cybersecurity, data protection, overseas issuance and/or foreign investment in Chinese issuers, and any failure to comply with applicable laws and obligations may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results, and may hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer our common stock to investors, causing the value of our common stock to decline significantly or become worthless.

• sales of our Ordinary Shares by us or other shareholders, or the perception that such sales may occur;

• changes in accounting principles, policies, guidance, interpretations or standards;

• additions or departures of key management personnel;

• actions by our shareholders;

• domestic and international economic, legal and regulatory factors unrelated to our performance; and

• the realization of any risks described under this “Risk Factors” section.

The stock markets in general have experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our Ordinary Shares. Securities class action litigation has often been instituted against companies following periods of volatility in the overall market and in the market price of a company’s securities. Such litigation, if instituted against us, could result in very substantial costs, diver our management’s attention and resources and harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

There may not be an active, liquid trading market for our Ordinary Shares.

Prior to the completion of this offering, there has been no public market for our Ordinary Shares. An active trading market for our Ordinary Shares may not develop or be sustained following this 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 initial public offering price was determined by negotiations between us and our advisors based upon a number of factors. The initial public offering price may not be indicative of prices that will prevail in the trading market.

Because we do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable 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, of our available funds and any future earnings after this offering to fund the development and growth of our business. As a result, we do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Therefore, you should not rely on an investment in the Ordinary Shares as a source for any future dividend income.

A sale or perceived sale of a substantial number of our Ordinary Shares may cause the price of our Ordinary Shares to decline.

If our shareholders sell substantial amounts of our Ordinary Shares in the public market, the market price of our Ordinary Shares could fall. Moreover, the perceived risk of this potential dilution could cause shareholders to attempt to sell their shares and investors to short our Ordinary Shares. These sales also make it more 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 be a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for United States federal income tax purposes for any taxable year, which could subject United States holders of our Ordinary Shares to significant adverse United States federal income tax consequences.

A non-United States corporation will be a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for United States federal income tax purposes for any taxable year if either (i) at least 75% of its 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 quarterly values of the assets) during such year is attributable to assets that that produce or are held for the production of passive income. Based on the current and anticipated value of our assets and the composition of our income assets, we do not expect to be a PFIC for United States federal income tax purposes for our current taxable year ended December 31, 2021 or in the foreseeable future. However, the determination of 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 and assets and the value of our assets from time to time. Therefore, changes in the composition of our income or assets or value of our assets may cause us to become a PFIC. The determination of the value of our assets (including goodwill not reflected on our balance sheet) may be 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 active or passive, and certain of our assets as producing active or passive income, and hence whether we are or will become a PFIC, depends on the interpretation of certain United States Treasury Regulations as well as certain IRS guidance relating to the classification of assets as producing active or passive income. Such regulations guidance is potentially subject to different interpretations. If due to different interpretations of such regulations and guidance the percentage of our passive income or the percentage of our assets treated as producing passive income increases, we may be a PFIC in one of more taxable years.

If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which a United States person holds Ordinary Shares, certain adverse United States federal income tax consequences could apply to such United States 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 disclosure about 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 of the 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 report in 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 votes on executive compensation. We will remain an emerging growth company for up to five years, although we will lose that status sooner if we have more than $1.235 billion of revenues in a fiscal year, have more than $700 million in market value of our Ordinary Shares held by 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 exemptions available to emerging growth companies, you will receive less information about our executive compensation and internal control over financial reporting 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 internal financial 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 report on internal control over financial reporting issued by our independent registered public accounting firm. However, while we remain an emerging growth company, we will not be required to include an attestation report on internal control over financial reporting issued by our independent registered public accounting firm. The presence of material weakness in internal control over financial reporting could result 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 controls in connection with evaluating our compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. In order to maintain and improve the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting. We will need to expend significant resources and provide significant management oversight. Implementing any appropriate changes to our internal controls may require specific compliance training of our directors and employees, entail substantial costs in order to modify our existing accounting systems, take a significant period of time to complete and divert management’s attention from other business concerns. These changes may not, however, be effective in maintaining the adequacy of our internal control.

If we are unable to conclude that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting, investors may lose confidence in our operating results, the price of the Ordinary Shares could decline and we may be subject to litigation or regulatory enforcement actions. In addition, if we are unable to meet the requirements of 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 stringent criteria for our initial and continued listing because we plan to have a small public offering and insiders will hold a large portion of the company’s listed securities.

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5101 provides Nasdaq with broad discretionary authority over the initial and continued listing of securities in Nasdaq and Nasdaq may use such discretion to deny initial listing, apply additional or more stringent criteria for the initial or continued listing of particular securities, or suspend or delist particular securities based on any event, condition, or circumstance that exists or occurs that makes initial or continued listing of the securities on Nasdaq inadvisable or unwarranted in the opinion of Nasdaq, even though the securities meet all enumerated criteria for initial or continued listing on Nasdaq. In addition, Nasdaq has used its discretion to deny initial or continued listing or to apply additional and more stringent criteria in the instances, including but not limited to: (i) where the company engaged an auditor that has not been subject to an inspection by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”), an auditor that PCAOB cannot inspect, or an auditor that has not demonstrated sufficient resources, geographic reach, or experience to adequately perform the company’s audit; (ii) where the company planned a small public offering, which would result in insiders holding a large portion of the company’s listed securities. Nasdaq was concerned that the offering size was insufficient to establish the company’s initial valuation, and there would not be sufficient liquidity to support a public market for the company; and (iii) where the company did not demonstrate sufficient nexus to the U.S. capital market, including having no U.S. shareholders, operations, or members of the board of directors or management. Our public offering will be relatively small, and our company’s insiders will hold a large portion of the company’s listed securities. Nasdaq might apply the additional and more stringent criteria for our initial and continued listing, which might cause delay or 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 standards applicable to US issuers as a Foreign Private Issuer, our securities may not be listed or may be delisted, which could negatively impact the price of our securities and your ability to sell them.

We will seek to have our securities approved for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market upon consummation of this offering. We cannot assure you that we will be able to meet those initial listing requirements at that time. Even if 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 addition, following this offering, in order to maintain our listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, we will be required to comply with certain rules of Nasdaq Capital Market, including those regarding minimum stockholders’ equity, minimum share price, and certain corporate governance 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 Nasdaq Capital Market criteria for maintaining our listing, our securities could be subject to delisting.

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

● limited availability for market quotations for our securities;

● reduced liquidity with respect to our securities;

● a determination that our Ordinary Share is a “penny stock,” which will require brokers trading in our Ordinary Share to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our Ordinary Share;

● limited amount of news and analyst coverage; and

● a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

The market price of our ordinary shares may be volatile or may decline regardless of our operating performance, and you may not be able to resell your shares at or above the public offering price.

The public offering price for our ordinary shares will be determined through negotiations between the underwriters and us and may vary from the market price of our ordinary shares following our public offering. If you purchase our ordinary shares in our public offering, you may not be able to resell those shares at or above the public offering price. We cannot assure you that the public offering price of our ordinary shares, or the market price following our public offering, will equal or exceed prices in privately negotiated transactions of our shares that have occurred from time to time prior to our public offering. The market price of our ordinary shares may fluctuate significantly in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:

● actual or anticipated fluctuations in our revenue and other operating results;

● the financial projections we may provide to the public, any changes in these projections or our failure to meet these projections;

● actions of securities analysts who initiate or maintain coverage of us, changes in financial estimates by any securities analysts who follow our company, or our failure to meet these estimates or the expectations of investors;

● announcements by us or our competitors of significant services or features, technical innovations, acquisitions, strategic relationships, joint ventures, or capital commitments;

● price and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market, including as a result of trends in the economy as a whole;

● lawsuits threatened or filed against us; and

● other events or factors, including those resulting from war or incidents of terrorism, or responses to these events.

● In addition, the stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies. Stock prices of many companies have fluctuated in a manner unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. In the past, stockholders have filed securities class action litigation following periods of market volatility. In the event that we were to become involved in securities litigation, it could subject us to substantial costs, divert resources and the attention of management from our business, and adversely affect our business.

We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from our public offering and may not use them effectively.

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 stockholders disagree. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could harm our business and financial condition. 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, Management has not determined the types of businesses that the Company will target or the terms of any potential acquisition.

We will incur additional costs as a result of becoming a public company, which could negatively impact our net income and liquidity.

Upon completion of this offering, we will become a public company in the United States. As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. In addition, Sarbanes-Oxley and rules and regulations implemented by the SEC and the Nasdaq Capital Market require significantly heightened corporate governance practices for public companies. We expect that these rules and regulations will increase our legal, accounting and financial compliance costs and will make many corporate activities more time-consuming and costly.

We do not expect to incur materially greater costs as a result of becoming a public company than those incurred by similarly sized U.S. public companies. In the event that we fail to comply with these rules and regulations, we could become the subject of a governmental enforcement action, investors may lose confidence in us and the market price of our ordinary shares could decline.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We estimate that we will receive net proceeds from this offering of approximately $ million after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and the estimated offering expenses payable by us and based upon an assumed initial offering price of $4.00 per ordinary share (excluding any exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option).

A $ increase (decrease) in the assumed initial public offering price of $5.00 per share would increase (decrease) the net proceeds to us from this offering by approximately $ million, after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated aggregate offering expenses payable by us and assuming no change to the number of ordinary share offered by us as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, provided, however, that in no case would we decrease the initial public offering price to less than $4.00 per share.

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 some 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 imminently used for the above purposes, we intend to invest in short-term, interest-bearing bank deposits or debt instruments.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock, and we do not currently intend to pay any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to support operations and to finance the growth and development of our business.

Any future determination to pay dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors, subject to applicable laws, and will depend upon, among other factors, our results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions, and capital requirements.

From time to time, we may also enter into other loan or credit agreements or similar borrowing arrangements that may further restrict our ability to declare or pay dividends on our common stock. Our board of directors will have sole discretion in making any future determination to pay dividends, subject to applicable laws, taking into account, among other factors, our results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions, and capital requirements.

BUSINESS

Overview of Our Company

Our clients are primarily Chinese investors residing in Asia and institutional clients in Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand, and we currently have over 1,000 active clients.

The Industry

Market scale

The prospects of the securities consulting services industry show positive trends in many aspects.

First, with the continuous development and growth of the securities markets in Hong Kong and China, as well as the growth of residents' wealth and the deepening of investment and financial services, the market size of the securities consulting services industry is maintaining steady growth. Investors' demand for professional and accurate securities investment advisory services is increasing. They not only want to get investment advice, but also expect to get account management services, agent execution account investment or transaction management and other comprehensive services. This provides a broad space for the development of the securities consulting services industry.

Secondly, technological progress is also promoting the innovative development of the securities consulting services industry. The application of data science and artificial intelligence technologies, such as big data analysis, machine learning and natural language processing, enables consulting companies to conduct investment research and forecasts more accurately, and improves the accuracy and efficiency of investment decisions. In addition, the increasing influence of social media in the securities investment consulting industry provides consulting companies with more publicity and promotion channels, and also enables investors to obtain information and exchange experiences more conveniently.

Furthermore, from a policy perspective, the state's support and supervision of the securities market is also gradually strengthening, which helps to promote the standardized development of the securities consulting services industry. At the same time, the development of investment banking businesses such as mergers and acquisitions and restructuring, as well as the growth of asset management business, have also provided more business opportunities for the securities consulting services industry.

Competition pattern

The competition in the securities consulting industry is becoming increasingly fierce. In addition to traditional large-scale comprehensive securities companies, more and more professional consulting institutions and Internet financial platforms are joining the market competition. These emerging institutions have exerted certain competitive pressure on traditional consulting institutions with their innovative service models, efficient service processes and low operating costs. At the same time, international consulting institutions are also actively entering the Hong Kong, Chinese and Southeast Asian markets, intensifying industry competition.

Development trend

In the next few years, the securities consulting industry will continue to maintain a rapid development momentum. On the one hand, with the continuous growth of the securities and wealth markets and the increase in investor demand, the consulting industry will usher in more development opportunities. On the other hand, technological progress and innovation will also promote the transformation and upgrading of the consulting industry. For example, the application of technologies such as big data and artificial intelligence will improve the accuracy and efficiency of consulting services and enhance the core competitiveness of the industry.

Number and distribution of clients

The number of clients in the consulting industry is huge and widely distributed. Client types include individual investors, institutional investors, enterprises and institutions, etc. Different customer groups have different needs for consulting services, so consulting agencies need to differentiate in customer positioning and service strategies. With the development of Internet finance, the consulting industry is also actively expanding online customer channels, and the number and distribution of customers will be more extensive.

Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee

The nomination and corporate governance committee assists the board in selecting individuals qualified to become our directors and in determining the composition of the board and its committees. The nomination and corporate governance committee is responsible for, among other things:

• identifying and recommending to the board of directors qualified individuals for membership on the board of directors and its committees;

The guidelines reflect certain guiding principles with respect to our board’s structure, procedures and committees. The guidelines are not intended to change or interpret any law, or our memorandum and articles of association, as amended from time to time. The code of business conducts and ethics and corporate governance guidelines all become effective upon completion of this offering.

Employment Agreements and Indemnification Agreements

We have entered into employment agreements with each of our executive officers for a specified time period providing that the agreements are terminable for cause at any time. The terms of these agreement are substantially similar to each other. A senior executive officer may terminate his or her employment at any time by 30-day prior written notice. We may terminate the executive officer’s employment for cause, at any time, without advance notice or remuneration, for certain acts of the executive officer, such as conviction or plea of guilty to a felony or any crime involving moral turpitude, negligent or dishonest acts to our detriment, or misconduct or a failure to perform agreed duties.

Each executive officer has agreed to hold in strict confidence and not to use, except for the benefit of our company, any proprietary information, technical data, trade secrets and know-how of our company or the confidential or proprietary information of any third party, including our subsidiaries and our clients, received by our company. Each of these executive officers has also agreed to be bound by noncompetition and non-solicitation restrictions during the term of his or her employment and typically for two years following the last date of employment.

We expect to enter into indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers, pursuant to which we will agree to indemnify our directors and executive officers against certain liabilities and expenses incurred by such persons in connection with claims made by reason of their being such a director or officer.

PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS

The following table sets forth the beneficial ownership of our common stock (i) as of and (ii) immediately following this offering, as adjusted to reflect the sale of shares of common stock by us, in each case, by the following individuals or groups:

•

each of our directors;

•

each of our named executive officers;

•

all of our directors and executive officers as a group;

•

each person, or group of affiliated persons, who is known by us to beneficially own more than 1% of our common stock.

We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC. These rules generally attribute beneficial ownership of securities to persons who possess sole or shared voting power or investment power with respect to those securities, or have the right to acquire such powers within 60 days. Under these rules, more than one person may be deemed beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which such person has no economic interest. In addition, the rules include shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options or warrants that are either immediately exercisable or exercisable on or before , 2023, which is 60 days after , 2023. These shares are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding those options or warrants for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person, but they are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. The information contained in the following table is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose, and the inclusion of any shares in the table does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership of those shares. Unless otherwise indicated, the persons or entities identified in this table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares shown as beneficially owned by them, subject to applicable community property laws.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

Upon completion of this offering, we will have Ordinary Shares outstanding assuming the underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment option to purchase additional Ordinary Shares. Of that amount, Ordinary Shares will be publicly held by investors participating in this offering, and Ordinary Shares will be held by our existing shareholders, some of whom may be our “affiliates” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. As defined in Rule 144, an “affiliate” of an issuer is a person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the issuer. Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our Ordinary Shares. While we intend to list the Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital market, we cannot assure you that a regular trading market will develop in our Ordinary Shares.

Future sales of substantial amounts of our Ordinary Shares in the public markets after this offering, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely affect market prices prevailing from time to time. As described below, only a limited number of our Ordinary Shares currently outstanding will be available for sale immediately after this offering due to contractual and legal restrictions on resale. Nevertheless, after these restrictions lapse, future sales of substantial amounts of our ordinary share, including ordinary share issued upon exercise of outstanding options, in the public market in the United States, or the possibility of such sales, could negatively affect the market price in the United States of our ordinary share and our ability to raise equity capital in the future.

All of the ordinary shares sold in the offering will be freely transferable by persons other than our “affiliates” in the United States without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act. Ordinary shares purchased by one of our “affiliates” may not be resold, except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption from registration, including an exemption under Rule 144 under the Securities Act described below.

The ordinary share held by existing shareholders are, and any ordinary share issuable upon exercise of options outstanding following the completion of this offering will be, “restricted securities,” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
