Our Business

Overview

Our Company operates at the intersection of technology and supply chain management, focusing on enhancing product traceability and authenticity. With a commitment to innovation and sustainability, we have developed a multi-faceted approach to address industry challenges. Our business currently comprises two main divisions, which are the GrowHub Platform and our product trading facilitation offering, and we currently preparing for the launch of our third main business division, namely, the GrowHub Innovation Centre, which is expected to start generating revenue by the end of the second quarter of 2025. Each division will play a vital role in our mission to improve transparency and efficiency in businesses.

Central to the Company’s operations is the proprietary GrowHub Platform, a revolutionary traceability blockchain technology solution. We believe that as of the date of this prospectus, we are among the few entities in Asia Pacific that operates a public blockchain system whereby all data can be transmitted directly to the cloud and shown on public blockchain records, and not subject to possible tampering and alteration of data. The GrowHub Platform stands as the cornerstone of our Company’s operations, serving as our main business and flagship offering.

Hosted on the robust Polygon network (i.e. a third-party blockchain platform which aims to create a multi-chain blockchain system compatible with Ethereum, a decentralized blockchain with smart contract functionality), the GrowHub Platform represents a paradigm shift in the way food products are traced from origin to consumer. Unlike traditional systems, the GrowHub Platform harnesses the power of public blockchain technology with an aim to ensure data immutability and transparency. Every aspect of the supply chain is meticulously recorded as an immutable checkpoint, each capturing critical information such as ingredient sourcing, manufacturing processes, and distribution channels. Through a seamless web application and QR code integration, consumers gain access to comprehensive product provenance, empowering them to make informed purchasing decisions with confidence. The GrowHub Platform offers three key solutions: the traceability solution that provides comprehensive tracking of products throughout the supply chain; the anti-counterfeit solution that equips organizations with tools to combat counterfeiting; and the carbon management solution that empowers companies to track and manage carbon emissions, contributing to environmental sustainability.

Our Corporate Vision and Mission

Our mission is to develop and implement cutting-edge technology solutions that enable real-time tracking, verification, and documentation of different kinds of products at every stage of the supply chain. By doing so, we aim to instill confidence in consumers, enhance operational efficiency for businesses, and drive data-driven decision-making within the industry.

Our Industry

According to the Food Traceability Market Report published by Meticulous Research in January 2024, the global market potential for food traceability is expected to reach $40.05 billion by 2031, increasing at a CAGR of 9.3% from 2024 to 2031. In the Asia Pacific region, the projection is projected to be the highest, with CAGR projected at 9.6% till 2030. The increasing consumer demand for transparency and safety in food products, as well as stricter government regulations, are driving the adoption of food traceability technology in this region. The rising prevalence of foodborne diseases, food adulteration incidents worldwide, fueled by increasing product recalls due to food contamination are also resulting in greater awareness and desire for food traceability.

Implementing food traceability systems is crucial in Asia Pacific due to various reasons as stated above. Food traceability involves tracking the movement of food products throughout the supply chain, from production to distribution to retail. This process enables stakeholders to identify the origin of food products, monitor their journey through the supply chain, and trace them back in cases of contamination, recalls, or quality issues.

Our Competitive Strengths

We believe our main competitive strengths are as follows:

One-stop complete traceability solution. The GrowHub Platform is not merely a traceability tool; it’s a comprehensive one-stop solution that addresses the entire supply chain, which sets us apart from traditional traceability systems that focus solely on tracking product movement.

Established government partnerships. Our collaboration with governments in Japan, Bhutan, and Australia provide us with political goodwill, which enhances our reputation.

Scalable business model. Our software-as-a-service model for the GrowHub Platform is affordable and accessible. By offering subscription-based access, we democratize traceability. Small businesses, startups, and even large enterprises can adopt our platform without significant upfront costs.

Pioneering Web3-enabled traceability in APAC. We believe we are both early adopters and trailblazers of Web3 in APAC. Our Web3-enabled GrowHub Platform leverages blockchain for data security.

Experienced management team. Our senior management team are experienced and seasoned professionals. We believe years of collaboration with government officials and politicians give us an edge.

Our Business Strategies and Future Plans

Our business strategies and future plans are as follows:

Geographical expansion. To date, we have successfully developed robust business ties in several key markets, including Australia, Bhutan, Japan, Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Malaysia. Over the next two years, our primary focus will be on expanding within APAC.

Investment in artificial intelligence and data analytics. Our ongoing investment in artificial intelligence (“AI”) ensures that we continue to innovate and enhance our platform. Furthermore, investment in data analytics ensures that we remain agile, customer-centric, and competitive in an ever-evolving market.

Increasing market share in existing markets. Our success in Australia, Japan, Malaysia, Bhutan, and other markets has positioned us as a trusted partner. To capitalize on this momentum, we will intensify our efforts in these regions.

Establishing corporate venture capital. We aim to identify projects, technologies, and companies that align with our business objectives. By investing strategically, we can accelerate innovation, expand our ecosystem, and drive mutual growth.

Summary Risk Factors

Our prospectus should be considered in light of the risks, uncertainties, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by similar companies. Below please find a summary of the principal risks we face, organized under relevant headings. These risks are discussed more carefully in the section titled “Risk Factors.”

Risks Related to Our Business

● Our Group does not have a long operating history as an integrated group.

● We may incur losses in the future.

● Our historical financial and operating results are not a guarantee of our future performance.

● If we are unable to attract new customers, our business will be harmed.

● If our platform fails to perform properly due to defects, interruptions, delays in performance or similar problems, and if we fail to develop enhancements to resolve any defect, interruption, delay, or other problems, we could lose customers, become subject to service performance or warranty claims or incur significant costs.

● If we fail to adapt and respond effectively to rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards, changing regulations, and changing customer needs, requirements, or preferences, our products may become less competitive.

● We receive a substantial portion of our revenues from a limited number of customers, and the loss of, or a significant reduction in usage by, one or more of our major customers would result in lower revenues and could harm our business.

● Security incidents and attacks on our platform could lead to significant costs and disruptions that could harm our business, financial results, and reputation.

● Interruption or failure of our information technology and communications systems due to natural disasters, human error or malicious acts could impair our ability to effectively provide our services and products, which could damage our brand and reputation and adversely affect our operating results.

● Our business generates and processes a large amount of data, and the improper use or disclosure of such data may harm our reputation and business.

● We operate in an emerging and evolving market, which may develop more slowly or differently than we expect. If our market does not grow as we expect, or if we cannot expand our services to meet the demands of this market, our revenue may decline, or fail to grow, and we may incur operating losses.

● Usage of our platform accounts for substantially all of our revenue. If market growth for our GrowHub Platform lags behind expectations due to various factors, our business would be adversely affected.

● We rely on the performance of highly skilled personnel, including our management and other key employees, and the loss of one or more of such personnel, or of a significant number of our team members, could harm our business.

● We rely on third-party hosting providers that may be difficult to replace.

● If we fail to offer high quality support, our business may be harmed.

● Any damage to the reputation and recognition of our brand names, including negative publicity against us, may materially and adversely affect our business operations and prospects.

● Our insurance may not provide adequate coverage for all potential loss and claims relating to our business operations and/or assets, and any uninsured losses incurred, may be substantial and therefore adversely affect our operations and financial results.

● Negative publicity relating to our Group or our Directors, Executive Officers or Controlling Shareholder may materially and adversely affect our reputation and Class A Ordinary Share price.

● The wars in Ukraine and in the Middle East may materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Risks Related to Doing Business in Singapore

● We are subject to the laws of Singapore, which differ in certain material respects from the laws of the United States.

● We are subject to risks associated with operating in the rapidly evolving Southeast Asia, and we might therefore be exposed to various risks inherent in operating and investing in the region.

Risks Related to Our Class A Ordinary Shares

● An active trading market for our Class A Ordinary Shares may not develop and could affect the trading price of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

● Our Class A Ordinary Shares price may never trade at or above the Offer Price in this Offering.

● The Offer Price for our Class A Ordinary Shares in this Offering may not reflect their actual value.

● Our share price may fluctuate significantly in the future and you may lose all or part of your investment, and litigation may be brought against us.

● Certain recent initial public offerings of companies with public floats comparable to our anticipated public float have experienced extreme volatility that was seemingly unrelated to the underlying performance of the respective company. We may experience similar volatility, which may make it difficult for prospective investors to assess the value of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

● Investors in our Class A Ordinary Shares likely will face immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value per share and may experience future dilution.

● We may have conflicts of interest with our Controlling Shareholder and, because of our Controlling Shareholder’s significant ownership interest in our company, we may not be able to resolve such conflicts on terms favorable to us.

● We may require additional funding in the form of equity or debt for our future growth which will cause dilution in Shareholders’ equity interest.

● Investors may not be able to participate in future issues or certain other equity issues of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

● We have no immediate plans to pay dividends.

● If we fail to meet applicable listing requirements, Nasdaq may delist our Class A Ordinary Shares from trading, in which case the liquidity and market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares could decline.

● We will incur significant expenses and devote other significant resources and management time as a result of being a public company, which may negatively impact our financial performance and could cause our results of operations and financial condition to suffer.

● If we fail to maintain an effective system of disclosure controls and internal controls over financial reporting, our ability to timely produce accurate financial statements or comply with applicable regulations could be impaired.

● Investors may have difficulty enforcing judgments against us, our Directors and management.

● The laws of the Cayman Islands relating to the protection of the interest of minority shareholders are different from those in the United States.

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

● We qualify as a foreign private issuer and, as a result, we will not be subject to U.S. proxy rules and will be subject to Exchange Act reporting obligations that permit less detailed and less frequent reporting than that of a U.S. domestic public company.

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

● As a foreign private issuer, we do not expect to be subject to certain Nasdaq corporate governance rules applicable to U.S. listed companies.

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

● We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this Offering and may not use them effectively

● If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if the publish a negative report regarding our Class A Ordinary Shares, the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares and trading volume could decline.

● Our dual-class voting structure may render our Class A Ordinary Shares ineligible for inclusion in certain stock market indices, and thus adversely affect the trading price and liquidity of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

● Our dual-class voting structure will limit your ability to influence corporate matters and could discourage others from pursuing any change of control transactions that holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares may view as beneficial.

Information contained on our website does not constitute part of this prospectus.

Implications of Being an “Emerging Growth Company” and a “Foreign Private Issuer”

As a company with less than $1.235 billion in revenue during our most recently completed fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure and requirements that are otherwise applicable generally to U.S. public companies that are not emerging growth companies. These provisions include:

	●	the option to include in an initial public offering registration statement only two years of audited financial statements and selected financial data and only two years of related disclosure;

	●	reduced executive compensation disclosure; and

	●	an exemption from the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) in the assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting.

The JOBS Act also permits an emerging growth company, such as us, to delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards are applicable to private companies. We have not elected to “opt out” of this provision, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we will have the discretion to adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard and our discretion will remain until such time that we either (i) irrevocably elect to “opt out” of such extended transition period or (ii) no longer qualify as an emerging growth company.

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of:

	●	the last day of our fiscal year during which we have total annual revenue of at least $1.235 billion;

	●	the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the closing of this Offering;

	●	the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities; or

	●	the date on which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Exchange Act, which, among other things, would occur if the market value of our Class A Ordinary Shares that are held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter.

We have taken advantage of reduced reporting requirements in this prospectus. Accordingly, the information contained herein may be different than the information you receive from other public companies.

In addition, upon closing of this Offering, we will report under the Exchange Act as a “foreign private issuer.” As a foreign private issuer, we may take advantage of certain provisions under the Nasdaq rules that allow us to follow Cayman Islands law for certain corporate governance matters. Even after we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, as long as we qualify as a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act, we will be exempt from certain provisions of the Exchange Act that are applicable to U.S. domestic public companies, including:

	●	the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents, or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act;

	●	the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their share ownership and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time;

	●	the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q containing unaudited financial and other specified information, or current reports on Form 8-K, upon the occurrence of specified significant events; and

	●	Regulation Fair Disclosure (“Regulation FD”), which regulates selective disclosures of material information by issuers.

Foreign private issuers, like emerging growth companies, are also exempt from certain more stringent executive compensation disclosure rules. Thus, if we remain a foreign private issuer, even if we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, we will continue to be exempt from the more stringent compensation disclosures required of public companies that are neither an emerging growth company nor a foreign private issuer.

We may take advantage of these exemptions until such time as we are no longer a foreign private issuer. We are required to determine our status as a foreign private issuer on an annual basis at the end of our second fiscal quarter. We would cease to be a foreign private issuer at such time as more than 50% of our outstanding voting securities are held by U.S. residents and any of the following three circumstances apply :

	●	the majority of our executive officers or directors are U.S. citizens or residents;

	●	more than 50% of our assets are located in the United States; or

	●	our business is administered principally in the United States.

Implications of Being a Controlled Company

Upon the completion of this Offering, we will be a “controlled company” as defined under the Nasdaq Listing Rules because Chan Choon Yew Lester will, through his wholly-owned entities, Initium Novum Capital Pte. Ltd., Vita Nova Ventures Pte. Ltd. and EMJ Capital Holdings Pte. Ltd. hold [ ]% of our outstanding Shares and will be able to exercise [ ]% of the total voting power of our issued and outstanding share capital.] For so long as we remain a “controlled company,” we are permitted to elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements. If we rely on these exemptions, you will not have the same protection afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to these corporate governance requirements. See section titled “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Class A Ordinary Shares — We will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq Stock Market listing rules and, as a result, may rely on exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that provide protection to shareholders of other companies.”

Even if we cease to be a controlled company, we may still rely on exemptions available to foreign private issuers.

An investment in our Class A Ordinary Shares involves various risks. Prospective investors should carefully consider and evaluate each of the following considerations and all other information set forth in this prospectus before deciding to invest in our Class A Ordinary Shares. The following section describes some of the significant risks known to us now that could directly or indirectly affect us and the value or trading price of our Class A Ordinary Shares and should not be construed as a comprehensive listing of all risk factors. The following section does not state risks unknown to us now but which could occur in the future and risks which we currently believe to be not material but may subsequently turn out to be so. Should these risks occur and/or turn out to be material, they could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. To the best of our Directors’ knowledge and belief, the risk factors that are material to investors in making an informed judgment have been set out below. If any of the following considerations and uncertainties develops into actual events, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. In such cases, the trading price of our Class A Ordinary Shares could decline and investors may lose all or part of their investment in our Shares. Prospective investors are advised to apprise themselves of all factors involving the risks of investing in our Class A Ordinary Shares from their professional advisers before making any decision to invest in our Class A Ordinary Shares.

This prospectus also contains forward-looking statements having direct and/or indirect implications on our future performance. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including the risks and uncertainties faced by us described below and elsewhere in this prospectus. See section titled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Our Company was incorporated as a holding company on April 12, 2024. While our businesses have been in operation since 2020, we do not have a long history of running an integrated group with standardized policies and procedures as compared to our competitors and on which our past performance may be judged. Given our limited operating history and the rapidly evolving market in which we compete, we may encounter operational, financial and other difficulties as we establish and expand our operations, product and service developments, sales and marketing, technology and general and administrative capabilities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded net loss of S$0.8 million (approximately US$0.6 million) and S$0.9 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company recorded net loss of S$1.8 million (approximately US$1.4 million) and S$1.9 million, respectively. We anticipate that our operating expenses, together with the increased general administrative expenses of a public company, will increase in the foreseeable future as we seek to maintain and continue to grow our business, attract potential customers and further enhance our service offering. These efforts may prove more expensive than we currently anticipate, and we may not succeed in increasing our revenue sufficiently to offset these higher expenses. As a result of the foregoing and other factors, we may continue to incur net losses in the future and may be unable to achieve or maintain sufficient cash flows or profitability on a quarterly or annual basis for the foreseeable future.

Our historical financial and operating results are not a guarantee of our future performance.

Our annual and periodic financial results vary from year to year and from period to period, in response to a number of factors that we cannot predict, such as general business outlook and sentiment, economic market conditions, employment rates, inflation and interest rates and consumer confidence. As such, our annual and periodic financial results are not a guarantee of our future economic performance and undue reliance should not be placed on such results for future speculative purposes.

To grow our business, we must continue to attract new customers. To do so, we must successfully convince potential customers of the benefits and the value of our GrowHub Platform. This may require significant and costly sales efforts that are targeted at larger enterprises and senior management of these potential customers. These factors significantly impact our ability to add new customers and increase the time, resources, and sophistication required to do so. In addition, numerous other factors, many of which are out of our control, may now or in the future impact our ability to acquire new customers, including potential customers’ commitments to other providers, real or perceived costs of switching to our platform, our failure to expand, retain, and motivate our sales and marketing personnel, our failure to develop or expand relationships with potential customers and channel partners, failure by us to help our customers to successfully deploy our platform, negative media or industry or financial analyst commentary regarding us or our solutions, litigation, and deteriorating general economic conditions. Any of these factors could impact our ability to attract new customers to our platform. As a result of these and other factors, we may be unable to attract new customers, which would harm our business.

If our platform fails to perform properly due to defects, interruptions, delays in performance. or similar problems, and if we fail to develop enhancements to resolve any defect, interruption, delay, or other problems, we could lose customers, become subject to service performance or warranty claims or incur significant costs.

Our operations are dependent upon our ability to prevent system interruption. The applications underlying our GrowHub Platform are inherently complex and may contain material defects or errors, which may cause disruptions in availability or other performance problems. We have from time to time found defects in our platform and may discover additional defects in the future that could result in data unavailability, unauthorized access to, loss, corruption, or other harm to our customers’ data. These defects or errors could also be found in third-party applications on which we rely.

We host our GrowHub Platform on Polygon, a third-party blockchain platform. We depend, in part, on our third-party facility providers’ ability to protect these facilities against damage or interruption from natural disasters, power or telecommunications failures, criminal acts, and similar events. In some cases, third-party cloud providers run their own platforms that we access, and we are, therefore, vulnerable to their service interruptions. In the event that there are any errors in software, failures of hardware, damages to a facility, or misconfigurations of any of our services, we could experience lengthy interruptions in our platform as well as delays and additional expenses in arranging new facilities and services. Our customers may choose to divert their traffic away from our platform as a result of interruptions or delays.

The occurrence of any defects, errors, disruptions in service, or other performance problems, interruptions, or delays with our platform, whether in connection with the day-to-day operations or otherwise, could result in:

The costs incurred in correcting any material defects, errors, or other performance problems in our platform may be substantial and could harm our business.

If we fail to adapt and respond effectively to rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards, changing regulations, and changing customer needs, requirements, or preferences, our products may become less competitive.

The market in which we compete is relatively new and subject to rapid technological change, evolving industry standards and regulatory changes, as well as changing customer needs, requirements, and preferences. The success of our business will depend, in part, on our ability to adapt and respond effectively to these changes on a timely basis. If we are unable to develop and sell new products that satisfy our customers and provide enhancements, new features, and capabilities to our platform that keep pace with rapid technological and industry change, our revenue and operating results could be adversely affected. If new technologies emerge that enable our competitors to deliver competitive products and applications at lower prices, more efficiently, more conveniently, or more securely, such technologies could adversely impact our ability to compete. If our platform does not allow us or our customers to comply with the latest regulatory requirements, our existing customers may decrease their usage on our platform and new customers will be less likely to adopt out platform.

Our platform must also integrate with a variety of network, hardware, mobile, and software platforms and technologies, and we need to continuously modify and enhance our products and platform capabilities to adapt to changes and innovation in these technologies. If developers widely adopt new software platforms, we would have to attempt to develop new versions of our products and enhance our platform’s capabilities to work with those new platforms. These development efforts may require significant engineering, marketing, and sales resources, all of which would affect our business and operating results. Any failure of our platform’s capabilities to operate effectively with future infrastructure platforms, technologies, and software platforms could reduce the demand for our platform. If we are unable to respond to these changes in a cost-effective manner, our products may become less marketable and less competitive or obsolete, and our business may be harmed.

We receive a substantial portion of our revenues from a limited number of customers, and the loss of, or a significant reduction in usage by, one or more of our major customers would result in lower revenues and could harm our business.

Our future success is dependent on establishing and maintaining successful relationships with a diverse set of customers. We currently receive a significant portion of our revenues from a limited number of customers. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, our top five customers accounted for approximately 71.6% and 80.9% of our total revenue, respectively, and our largest customers accounted for approximately 37.5% and 26.1 % of our revenue, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, our top five customers accounted for approximately 89.7% and 91.5% of our total revenue, respectively, and our largest customers accounted for approximately 58.6% and 66.4% of our revenue, respectively. It is likely that we will continue to be dependent upon a limited number of customers for a significant portion of our total revenues for the foreseeable future, as such short-term dependence is inherent in our project-based business nature. Although we would not rely on any single customer for recurring revenue in the long run, the loss of one or more key customers during an on-going project or in the middle of our collaboration would reduce our revenues for the fiscal year which we rely on the projects with those customers for income. If we fail to maintain existing customers or develop relationships with new customers, our business would be harmed.

Security incidents and attacks on our platform could lead to significant costs and disruptions that could harm our business, financial results, and reputation.

Our business is dependent on providing our customers with fast, efficient, and reliable data on our GrowHub Platform. We transmit and store our customers’ information, data, and encryption keys as well as our own; customer information and data may include personally identifiable data of and about their end-users. Maintaining the security and availability of our platform, network, and internal IT systems and the security of information we hold on behalf of our customers is a critical issue for us and our customers. Attacks on our customers and our own network are frequent and take a variety of forms, including DDoS attacks, infrastructure attacks, botnets, malicious file attacks, cross-site scripting, credential abuse, ransomware, bugs, viruses, worms, and malicious software programs. Malicious actors can attempt to fraudulently induce employees or suppliers to disclose sensitive information through spamming, phishing, or other tactics. In addition, unauthorized parties may attempt to gain physical access to our facilities in order to infiltrate our information systems. We have in the past been subject to cyber-attacks from third parties, including parties who we believe are sponsored by government actors. Since our customers share our multi-tenant architecture, an attack on any one of our customers could have a negative effect on other customers. These attacks have significantly increased the bandwidth used on our platform and have strained our network. If attacks like these were to occur in the future and if we do not have the systems and processes in place to respond to them, our business could be harmed.

Security incidents, whether as a result of third-party action, employee or customer error, technology impairment or failure, malfeasance or criminal activity, or hostile state actors, could result in unauthorized access to, or loss or unauthorized disclosure of, this information, litigation, indemnity obligations, and other possible liabilities. Further, certain of our insurance policies and the laws of some states may limit or prohibit insurance coverage for punitive or certain other types of damages or liability arising from gross negligence or intentional misconduct of us and our suppliers and we cannot assure you that we are adequately insured against the risks that we face.

In recent years, cyber-attacks have increased in size, sophistication, and complexity, increasing exposure for our customers and us. The costs to us to avoid or alleviate cyber or other security problems and vulnerabilities may be significant. However, our efforts to address these problems and vulnerabilities may not be successful. Any significant breach of our security measures could:

The occurrence of any of these events could harm our business or damage our brand and reputation, lead to customer credits, loss of customers, higher expenses, and possibly impede our present and future success in retaining and attracting new customers. A successful security breach or attack on our infrastructure would be damaging to our reputation and could harm our business. Similar security risks exist with respect to our business partners and the third-party vendors that we rely on for aspects of our information technology support services and administrative functions. As a result, we are subject to the risk that cyber-attacks on our business partners and third-party vendors may adversely affect our business even if an attack or breach does not directly impact our systems. It is also possible that security breaches sustained by our competitors could result in negative publicity for our entire industry that indirectly harms our reputation and diminishes demand for our platform.

Interruption or failure of our information technology and communications systems due to natural disasters, human error or malicious acts could impair our ability to effectively provide our services and products, which could damage our brand and reputation and adversely affect our operating results.

We depend on the continuing operation of our information technology and communications systems to provide our products and services. Most of our businesses rely almost exclusively on the Internet to provide services to our users and clients. Any damage to or failure of our digital systems, our physical infrastructure or the telecommunications infrastructure more broadly could result in interruptions in our services, which could damage our brand and reputation and could result in decreased use of our services and cause us to incur significant costs or financial losses.

Our systems are vulnerable to damage or interruption from natural disasters, acts of war or terrorist attacks, fires, power loss, hardware and software defects and malfunctions and telecommunications failures. For example, a significant portion of our Japan business and is located in the Kansai region, which has a high risk of major earthquakes. Our disaster recovery and business continuity plans may not address all contingencies that could arise in the event of a major disruption of services, which could harm our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations. We rely on third parties to a significant extent for that technological infrastructure. For example, we heavily rely on the stability and security of Polygon network for providing our services including but not limited to product trading for businesses. As a result, our business also depends on the measures that such third parties take to ensure the continuity of their services.

In addition, despite our implementation of information security measures such as encryption and security protocols, our systems and the Internet generally are vulnerable to computer viruses, worms, and other malicious software programs, physical and electronic break-ins, sabotage and similar disruptions, and we may be vulnerable to coordinated attempts to overload our systems with data, resulting in denial or reduction of service to some or all of our users for a period of time. In addition, we have observed a high level of attention in the information technology industry to the risk of cyber-attacks that could result in unauthorized access to confidential or sensitive information, including personal information, misappropriation of assets, corruption of data or operational disruption.

To combat cyber-attacks, we have policies and procedures in place to prevent or limit the effect of possible security breaches of our information technology systems, but there can be no assurance that our policies and procedures will be sufficient to protect our systems. For example, our businesses must provide secure transmission of confidential information over public networks, and many of our users routinely provide us with patient and other personal information. We rely on encryption and authentication technology licensed from third parties to effect secure transmission of confidential information. Advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other developments may result in a compromise or breach of the technology we use to protect such personal and transaction data.

If our efforts to combat these malicious applications or cyber-attacks are unsuccessful, or if our services and products have actual or perceived vulnerabilities, clients, potential clients and other third parties accessing our platforms may lose confidence in our information security and cease or decline to do business or otherwise interact with us. Moreover, security breaches could damage our reputation and expose us to a risk of loss or litigation and possible liability. Certain of our businesses may not be insured against losses caused by security breaches, and any insurance policies we hold may not cover or may not be adequate to reimburse us for such losses. We are also exposed to targeted attempts by third parties to access and misuse our systems. In addition, we depend on third parties for certain services with respect to the implementation and maintenance of our information systems and accordingly some system problems and failures may be outside of our control.

Our business generates and processes a large amount of data, and the improper use or disclosure of such data may harm our reputation and business.

Our business generates and processes a large quantity of transaction data. We face certain risks inherent in handling large volumes of data and in protecting the security of such data, including those relating to:

We are subject to laws and regulations of Singapore and other countries and regions relating to the collection, use, retention, security and transfer of identifiable information with respect to our customers, suppliers and employees. In many cases, these laws not only apply to third-party transactions, but may also restrict cross-border transfers of identifiable information. Several jurisdictions have passed laws in this area, and other jurisdictions are considering imposing additional restrictions. These laws continue to develop and may vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Complying with emerging and changing international requirements may cause us to incur substantial costs or require it to change its business practices. Any failure, or perceived failure, by us to comply with any privacy policies or regulatory requirements or laws, rules and regulations related to privacy protection could result in proceedings or actions against it by government authorities or others. These proceedings or actions may subject us to significant penalties and negative publicity, require us to change our business practices, increase our costs and severely disrupt its business.

In addition, the secure transmission of confidential information over public networks is essential for maintaining user confidence. We do not have control over the security measures of the Polygon network, and their security measures may not be adequate. We could be exposed to litigation and possible liability if we fail to safeguard confidential user information, which could harm our reputation and its ability to attract or retain users, and may materially and adversely affect our business.

Our sales to highly regulated organizations and government entities are subject to a number of challenges and risks.

We sell to customers in highly regulated industries such as financial services, insurance, and healthcare, as well as to various governmental agency customers, including state and local agency customers, and foreign governmental agency customers. Sales to such entities are subject to a number of challenges and risks. Selling to such entities can be highly competitive, expensive, and time-consuming, often requiring significant upfront time and expense without any assurance that these efforts will generate a sale. Government contracting requirements may change and in doing so restrict our ability to sell into the government sector until we comply with the revised requirements. Government demand and payment for our products and services are affected by public sector budgetary cycles and funding authorizations, with funding reductions or delays adversely affecting public sector demand for our products and services.

Further, highly regulated and governmental entities may demand shorter contract terms or other contractual provisions that differ from our standard arrangements, including terms that can lead those customers to obtain broader rights in our products and services than would be standard. Such entities may have statutory, contractual, or other legal rights to terminate contracts with us or our partners due to a default or for other reasons, and any such termination may harm our business. In addition, these governmental agencies may be required to publish the rates we negotiate with them, which could harm our negotiating leverage with other potential customers and in turn harm our business.

We operate in an emerging and evolving market, which may develop more slowly or differently than we expect. If our market does not grow as we expect, or if we cannot expand our services to meet the demands of this market, our revenue may decline, or fail to grow, and we may incur operating losses.

The market for product traceability technology is in an early stage of development. There is considerable uncertainty over the size and rate at which this market will grow, as well as whether our platform will be widely adopted. Our success will depend, to a substantial extent, on the widespread adoption of our platform as an alternative to other traditional food traceability solutions. Some organizations may be reluctant or unwilling to use our platform for a number of reasons, including concerns about additional costs, uncertainty regarding the reliability, and security of cloud-based offerings or lack of awareness of the benefits of our platform. Our ability to expand sales of our product into new and existing markets depends on several factors, including potential customer awareness of our platform; introduction and market acceptance of enhancements to our platform or new applications that we may introduce; our ability to attract, retain and effectively train sales and marketing personnel; our ability to develop relationships with partners; the effectiveness of our marketing programs; the pricing of our services; and the success of our competitors. If we are unsuccessful in developing and marketing our product into new and existing markets, or if organizations do not perceive or value the benefits of our platform, the market for our product might not continue to develop or might develop more slowly than we expect, either of which may harm our business.

Usage of our platform accounts for substantially all of our revenue. If market growth for our GrowHub Platform lags behind expectations due to various factors, our business would be adversely affected.

For the two years ended December 31, 2023, we were substantially dependent on our GrowHub Platform to generate revenue for the foreseeable future. As a result, our operating results could suffer due to:

If the market for our GrowHub Platform grows more slowly than anticipated or if demand for our GrowHub Platform does not grow as quickly as anticipated, whether as a result of competition, pricing sensitivities, product obsolescence, technological change, unfavorable economic conditions, uncertain geopolitical environment, budgetary constraints of our customers, or other factors, our business would be harmed.

We rely on the performance of highly skilled personnel, including our management and other key employees, and the loss of one or more of such personnel, or of a significant number of our team members, could harm our business.

We believe our success has depended, and continues to depend, on the efforts and talents of senior management and key personnel, including Chan Choon Yew Lester, our Founder, Director, Chairman of the Board of Directors, and Chief Executive Officer. From time to time, there may be changes in our management team resulting from the hiring or departure of executives and key employees, which could disrupt our business. We also are dependent on the continued service of our existing software engineers because of the complexity of our platform. Our senior management and key employees are employed on an at-will basis. We cannot ensure that we will be able to retain the services of any member of our senior management or other key employees or that we would be able to timely replace members of our senior management or other key employees should any of them depart. The loss of one or more of our senior management or other key employees could harm our business.

The failure to attract and retain additional qualified personnel could prevent us from executing our business strategy.

To execute our business strategy, we must attract and retain highly qualified personnel. Competition for executive officers, software developers, sales personnel, and other key employees in our industry is intense. In particular, we compete with many other companies for software developers with high levels of experience in designing, developing, and managing cloud-based software, as well as for skilled sales and operations professionals. In addition, we believe that the success of our business and corporate culture depends on employing people with a variety of backgrounds and experiences, and the competition for such diverse personnel is significant. While the market for such talented personnel is particularly competitive in Singapore, where our headquarters is located, it is also competitive in other markets where we maintain operations. Many of the companies with which we compete for experienced personnel have greater resources than we do and can frequently offer such personnel substantially greater compensation than we can offer. If we fail to attract new personnel or fail to retain and motivate our current personnel, our business would be harmed.

We rely on third-party hosting providers that may be difficult to replace.

We rely on third-party hosting services such as Polygon, Google, Amazon Web Services and other cloud or platform service providers that facilitate the offering of our platform. Some of these third-party hosting services may currently or in the future offer competing products to ours and therefore may not continue to be available on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. These providers may be unwilling to do business with us if they view our platform as a competitive threat. Any loss of the right to use any of our hosting providers could impair our ability to offer our platform until we are able to obtain alternative hosting providers.

Our customers rely on our support team to assist them in using our platform effectively and resolve technical and operational issues. High-quality support is important for the renewal and expansion of our agreements with existing customers. The importance of maintaining high quality support will increase as we expand our business and pursue new customers. If we do not help our customers quickly resolve issues and provide effective ongoing support, our ability to maintain and expand our relationships with existing and new customers could suffer and our business could be harmed. Further, increased demand for customer support, without corresponding revenue, could increase costs and adversely affect our business. In addition, as we continue to grow our operations and expand internationally, we will need to be able to provide efficient customer support that meets our customers’ needs globally at scale and our customer support team will face additional challenges, including those associated with delivering support and documentation in multiple languages. Our failure to do so could harm our business.

Unfavorable conditions in our industry or the global economy or reductions in information technology spending could harm our business.

Our results of operations may vary based on the impact of changes in our industry or the global economy on us or our customers and potential customers. Current or future economic uncertainties or downturns could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Negative conditions in the general economy in the Asia Pacific region or globally, including conditions resulting from changes in gross domestic product growth, financial and credit market fluctuations, political turmoil, natural catastrophes, warfare, and terrorist attacks on the United States, Europe, the Asia Pacific region, or elsewhere, could cause a decrease in business investments, including spending on information technology, which would harm our business. To the extent that our platform and our products are perceived by customers and potential customers as too costly, or difficult to deploy or migrate to, our revenue may be disproportionately affected by delays or reductions in general information technology spending. Also, our competitors, many of whom are larger and have greater financial resources than we do, may respond to market conditions by lowering prices and attempting to lure away our customers. In addition, the increased pace of consolidation in certain industries may result in reduced overall spending on our products. We cannot predict the timing, strength, or duration of any economic slowdown, instability, or recovery, generally or within any particular industry.

Any damage to the reputation and recognition of our brand names, including negative publicity against us, may materially and adversely affect our business operations and prospects.

We depend on our reputation and brand names in many aspects of our business operations. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain a positive reputation or brand name in the future. Our reputation and brand names may be materially and adversely affected by a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:

Any damage to our brand names or reputation as a result of these or other factors may cause our services to be perceived unfavorably by consumers and the existing and prospective employees, suppliers and others parties, and our business operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected as a result.

Our insurance may not provide adequate coverage for all potential loss and claims relating to our business operations and/or assets, and any uninsured losses incurred, may be substantial and therefore adversely affect our operations and financial results.

We maintain insurance coverage against, among other things, public liability and product liability insurance and travel insurance for our employees. For more details, please refer to the section headed “Business — Insurance” in this prospectus. However, our insurance coverage may not adequately protect us against all potential claims, damages and liabilities that we may incur in the course of our business operations, which may result in an adverse effect on our business. If we are held responsible for any damages, liabilities or losses and our insurance is insufficient or unavailable to cover the claims, there would be an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial position.

In addition, there is no guarantee that insurance coverage will always be available to us at economically favorable premiums (or at all) or that, in the event of a claim, the level of insurance currently maintained by us or in the future is or will be adequate or cover the entire claim/liability. We may be subject to liabilities which have not been insured adequately at all. Any uninsured risks may result in substantial costs and the diversion of resources, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

With respect to losses which are covered by our insurance policies, it may be a difficult and lengthy process to recover such losses from insurers. In addition, we may be unable to recover the amount from the insurer. Even we are able to recover certain losses from our insurers, our premiums might increase and it might be hard for us to renew our insurance policies. Therefore, if we are held liable for uninsured losses or amounts and claims for insured losses exceeding our insurance coverage, our operations and financial results may be adversely affected.

Our future strategic acquisitions, investments and partnerships could pose various risks, increase our leverage, dilute existing shareholders and significantly impact our ability to expand our overall profitability.

Acquisitions involve inherent risks, such those relating to increased leverage and debt service requirements and post-acquisition integration challenges, which could have a material and adverse effect on our results of operations and/or cash flow and could strain our human resources. We may be unable to successfully implement effective cost controls or achieve expected synergies as a result of a future acquisition. Acquisitions may result in our assumption of unexpected liabilities and the diversion of management’s attention from the operation of our business. Acquisitions may also result in our having greater exposure to the industry risks of the businesses underlying the acquisition. Strategic investments and partnerships with other companies expose us to the risk that we may not be able to control the actions of our investees or partners, which could decrease the amount of benefits we realize from a particular relationship. We are also exposed to the risk that our partners in strategic investments and infrastructure may encounter financial difficulties that could lead to a disruption of investee or partnership activities, or an impairment of assets acquired, which could adversely affect future reported results of operations and shareholders’ equity. Acquisitions may subject us to new or different regulations or tax consequences which could have an adverse effect on our operations.

In addition, we may be unable to obtain the financing necessary to complete acquisitions on attractive terms or at all. If we raise additional funds through future issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing shareholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares. Future equity financings would also decrease our earnings per share and the benefits derived by us from such new ventures or acquisitions might not outweigh or exceed their dilutive effect. Any additional debt financing we secure could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital or to pursue business opportunities. Realization of any of the foregoing risks associated with future strategic acquisitions, investments and partnerships could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Negative publicity relating to our Group or our Directors, Executive Officers or Controlling Shareholder may materially and adversely affect our reputation and Class A Ordinary Share price.

Negative publicity or announcements relating to our Group or any of our Directors, Executive Officers or Controlling Shareholder, whether with or without merit, may materially and adversely affect the reputation and goodwill of our Group in our industry, consequently affecting our relationships with our customers and car dealers. In addition, such negative publicity may affect market perception of our Group and the performance of our Class A Ordinary Share price.

Negative publicity or announcements may include, among others, newspaper reports of accidents at our work places, unsuccessful attempts in joint ventures, acquisitions or take-overs, any involvement we may have in litigation or insolvency proceedings, and unfavorable or negative articles on any of our Directors, Executive Officers or Controlling Shareholder. Any claims and legal actions brought forward by our customers may also have a negative impact on our brand image. If our customers, suppliers or sub-contractors subsequently lose confidence in us, this could result in the termination of business relationships or fewer referrals or invitations to tender or quote for facilities services or other contracts. To this end, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be adversely impacted.

The wars in Ukraine and in the Middle East may materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

The recent outbreak of war in Ukraine has already affected global economic markets, and the uncertain resolution of this conflict could result in protracted and/or severe damage to the global economy. Russia’s recent military interventions in Ukraine have led to, and may lead to, additional sanctions being levied by the United States, European Union and other countries against Russia. Russia’s military incursion and the resulting sanctions could adversely affect global energy and financial markets and thus could affect the global markets, our customers’ businesses and potentially our business. As of the date of this prospectus, to the best knowledge of the Company, we (i) do not have any direct business or contracts with any Russian or Ukraine entity as a supplier or customer, (ii) do not have any knowledge whether any our customers or suppliers have any direct business or contracts with any Russian entity, (iii) our business segments, lines of service, projects, or operations are not materially impacted by supply chain disruptions by the war in Ukraine, and (iv) have not been financially affected by the war in Ukraine. The extent and duration of the military action, sanctions and resulting market disruptions are impossible to predict, but could be substantial. Any such disruptions caused by Russian military action or resulting sanctions may magnify the impact of other risks described in this section. We cannot predict the progress or outcome of the situation in Ukraine, as the conflict and governmental reactions are rapidly developing and beyond their control. Prolonged unrest, intensified military activities or more extensive sanctions impacting the region could have a material adverse effect on the global economy, and such effect could in turn have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.

We do not anticipate any new or heightened risk of potential cyberattacks by state actors or others since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and we have not taken any actions to mitigate such potential risks. Our board of directors will continue to monitor any potential risks that might arise due to the war in Ukraine which are specific to the Company, including but not limited to risks related to cybersecurity, sanctions, and supply chain, suppliers, or service providers in affected regions as well as risks connected with ongoing or halted operations or investments in affected regions.

Similarly, the war in Gaza is unpredictable and may expand into a regional or even possibly a global conflict. To date, this newest chapter in the long Middle East conflict has not resulted in any material adverse impact on the Company, but a prolonged conflict and/or significant escalation of hostilities would likely cause disruption in international relations and global trade, which in turn would likely adversely affect our business and the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

We are subject to the laws of Singapore, which differ in certain material respects from the laws of the United States.

We are required to comply with the laws of Singapore, certain of which are capable of extra-territorial application, as well as the constitution of our Singapore operating subsidiaries. In particular, we are required to comply with certain provisions of the Securities and Futures Act 2001 of Singapore (the “SFA”), which prohibit certain forms of market conduct and information disclosures, and impose criminal and civil penalties on corporations, directors and officers in respect of any breach of such provisions.

The laws of Singapore and of the United States differ in certain significant respects. The application of Singapore law, in particular, the Companies Act, may, in certain circumstances, impose more restrictions on us, our directors and officers than would otherwise be applicable to U.S. corporations, including those incorporated in Delaware. For example, the Companies Act requires a director to use reasonable diligence in the discharge of the duties of his or her office and, in certain circumstances, imposes liability for specified contraventions of particular statutory requirements or prohibitions. Additionally, under the Employment of Foreign Manpower Act 1990 of Singapore, we are also required to ensure that each foreign worker employed by us has a valid work pass, and in particular, the number of foreign workers employed under certain work passes (e.g. Work Permits and S Pass holders) are subject to a quota and certain other limitations. Generally, we are also required to take out mandatory insurance for accidents which arise in the course of an employee’s employment under the Work Injury Compensation Act 2019 of Singapore.

Any adverse material changes to the Singapore market (whether localized or resulting from global economic or other conditions) such as the occurrence of an economic recession, pandemic or widespread outbreak of an infectious disease (such as COVID-19), could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, most of our revenue was derived from our operations in Singapore. Any adverse circumstances affecting the Singapore market, such as an economic recession, epidemic outbreak or natural disaster or other adverse incident, may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Any downturn in the industry which we operate in resulting in the postponement, delay or cancellation of contracts and delay in recovery of receivables is likely to have an adverse impact on our business and profitability.

Uncertain global economic conditions have had and may continue to have an adverse impact on our business in the form of lower net sales due to weakened demand, unfavorable changes in product price/mix, or lower profit margins. For example, global economic downturns may adversely impact some of our customers who are particularly sensitive to business and consumer spending.

During economic downturns or recessions, there can be a heightened competition and increased pressure to reduce brokerage and trading fees as our customers may reduce their demand for our services. If we reduce brokerage and trading fees significantly, the result could be a negative impact on our financial condition or results of operations, profitability and cash flows.

An epidemic or outbreak of communicable diseases may also adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. The COVID-19 epidemic resulted in a global health crisis, causing disruptions to social and economic activities, business operations and supply chains worldwide, including in Singapore. Measures taken by the Singapore government to tackle the spread of COVID-19 have included, among others, border closures, quarantine measures and lockdown measures. The COVID-19 outbreak and related government measures did not adversely affect our business.

However, in the event of a resurgence of COVID-19 and/or any other infectious diseases, if a substantial number of our employees are infected with and/or are suspected of being infected, and our employees are required to be quarantined and/or hospitalized, this may disrupt our ability to render services which may have a material adverse effect on our business operations and reputation of our Group.

We are subject to risks associated with operating in the rapidly evolving Southeast Asia, and we might therefore be exposed to various risks inherent in operating and investing in the region.

We derive some of our revenue from our operations in countries located in Southeast Asia, and we intend to continue to develop and expand our business and penetration in the region. Our operations in Southeast Asia are subject to various risks related to the economic, political and social conditions of the countries in which we operate, including risks related to the following:

Any disruptions in our business activities or volatility or uncertainty in the economic, political or regulatory conditions in the markets we operate in could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We may be exposed to liabilities under applicable anti-corruption laws and any determination that we violated these laws could have a materially adverse effect on our business.

We are subject to various anti-corruption laws, including the Prevention of Corruption Act 1960, which prohibits any person from making improper gratification as an inducement to or reward for any person doing or forbearing to do anything in respect of any matter or transaction, or any member, officer or servant of a public body doing or forbearing to do anything in respect of any matter or transaction in which such public body is concerned. We may conduct business in countries and regions that are generally recognized as potentially more corrupt business environments. Activities in these countries create the risk of unauthorized payments or offers of payments by one of our employees or agents that could be in violation of various anti-corruption laws. We have implemented safeguards and policies to discourage these practices by our employees and agents but we cannot provide assurance that our internal controls and compliance systems will always protect us from acts committed by our employees or agents. If our employees or agents violate our policies or we fail to maintain adequate record keeping and internal accounting practices to accurately record our transactions, we may be subject to regulatory sanctions. Violations of the Prevention of Corruption Act 1960 or other anti-corruption laws, or allegations of any such acts, could damage our reputation and subject us to civil or criminal investigations in the United States and in other jurisdictions. Those and any related shareholder lawsuits could lead to substantial civil and criminal, monetary and nonmonetary penalties and cause us to incur significant legal and investigatory fees which could adversely affect our business, combined financial condition and results of operations.

An active trading market for our Class A Ordinary Shares may not develop and could affect the trading price of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

Prior to the Offering, there has been no public market for our Class A Ordinary Shares. Although an application has been made to Nasdaq Capital Market for the listing and quotation of our Class A Ordinary Shares, there can be no assurance that there will be an active, liquid public market for our Class A Ordinary Shares after the Offering. The lack of an active market may impair your ability to sell your Class A Ordinary Shares at the time you wish to sell them or at a price that you consider reasonable. The lack of an active market may also reduce the fair market value of your Class A Ordinary Shares. An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital to continue to fund operations by selling Class A Ordinary Shares and may impair our ability to acquire other companies or technologies by using our Class A Ordinary Shares as consideration. The Offer Price was determined by negotiations between us and the Underwriter and may not be indicative of the future prices of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

Our Class A Ordinary Shares price may never trade at or above the Offer Price in this Offering.

Stock markets generally have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. Broad market and industry factors may significantly affect the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares, regardless of our actual operating performance. These fluctuations may be even more pronounced in the trading market for our Class A Ordinary Shares shortly following this Offering. If the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares after this Offering does not ever exceed the Offer Price, you may not realize any return on your investment in us and may lose some or all of your investment.

The Offer Price for our Class A Ordinary Shares in this Offering may not reflect their actual value.

The Offer Price for our Class A Ordinary Shares in this Offering was determined through negotiations between us and the Underwriter. The Offer Price of our Class A Ordinary Shares may not be indicative of their actual value or any future market price for our securities. This Offer Price may not accurately reflect the value of the Class A Ordinary Shares or the value that potential investors will realize upon their disposition of Class A Ordinary Shares. The Offer Price does not necessarily bear any relationship to our assets, earnings, book value per Class A Ordinary Share or other generally accepted criteria of value.

Our share price may fluctuate significantly in the future and you may lose all or part of your investment, and litigation may be brought against us.

There is no assurance that the market price for our Class A Ordinary Shares will not decline below the Offer Price. The Offer Price was determined after consultation between our Company and the Underwriter, after taking into consideration, among others, market conditions and estimated market demand for our Class A Ordinary Shares. The Offer Price may not necessarily be indicative of the market price for our Class A Ordinary Shares after the completion of the Offering. Investors may not be able to sell their Class A Ordinary Shares at or above the Offer Price. The prices at which our Class A Ordinary Shares will trade after the Offering may fluctuate significantly and rapidly as a result of, among others, the following factors, some of which are beyond our control:

There is no guarantee that our Class A Ordinary Shares will appreciate in value after this Offering or even maintain the price at which you purchased the Class A Ordinary Shares. You may not realize a return on your investment in our Class A Ordinary Shares and you may even lose your entire investment in our Class A Ordinary Shares.

In addition, the stock markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have affected the market prices of securities. These fluctuations often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of publicly-traded companies. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a particular company’s securities, an investor may lose all or part of his or her investment, and litigation has sometimes been brought against that company. If similar litigation is instituted against us, it could result in substantial costs and divert our senior management’s attention and resources from our core business.

Certain recent initial public offerings of companies with public floats comparable to our anticipated public float have experienced extreme volatility that was seemingly unrelated to the underlying performance of the respective company. We may experience similar volatility, which may make it difficult for prospective investors to assess the value of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

In addition to the risks addressed above in “— Our Class A Ordinary Share price may fluctuate significantly in the future and you may lose all or part of your investment, and litigation may be brought against us,” our Class A Ordinary Shares may be subject to extreme volatility that is seemingly unrelated to the underlying performance of our business. Recently, companies with comparable public floats and initial public offering sizes have experienced instances of extreme stock price run-ups followed by rapid price declines, and such stock price volatility was seemingly unrelated to the respective company’s underlying performance. Although the specific cause of such volatility is unclear, our anticipated public float may amplify the impact the actions taken by a few shareholders have on the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares, which may cause our share price to deviate, potentially significantly, from a price that better reflects the underlying performance of our business. Should our Class A Ordinary Shares experience run-ups and declines that are seemingly unrelated to our actual or expected operating performance and financial condition or prospects, prospective investors may have difficulty assessing the rapidly changing value of our Class A Ordinary Shares. In addition, investors of our Class A Ordinary Shares may experience losses, which may be material, if the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares declines after this Offering or if such investors purchase shares of our Class A Ordinary Shares prior to any price decline.

Holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares may also not be able to readily liquidate their investment or may be forced to sell at depressed prices due to low volume trading. Broad market fluctuations and general economic and political conditions may also adversely affect the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares. As a result of this volatility, investors may experience losses on their investment in our Class A Ordinary Shares. Furthermore, the potential extreme volatility may confuse the public investors of the value of our stock, distort the market perception of our stock price and our Company’s financial performance and public image and negatively affect the long-term liquidity of our Class A Ordinary Shares, regardless of our actual or expected operating performance. If we encounter such volatility, including any rapid stock price increases and declines seemingly unrelated to our actual or expected operating performance and financial condition or prospects, it will likely make it difficult and confusing for prospective investors to assess the rapidly changing value of our Class A Ordinary Shares and understand the value thereof.

Investors in our Class A Ordinary Shares likely will face immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value per share and may experience future dilution.

The Offer Price is likely to substantially higher than our Group’s current net tangible book value per share. If we were liquidated immediately following this Offering, each investor subscribing for this Offering would receive less than the price they paid for their Class A Ordinary Shares. Please refer to the section titled “Dilution” of this prospectus for more information.

We will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq Stock Market listing rules and, as a result, may rely on exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that provide protection to shareholders of other companies.

We will be a “controlled company” as defined under the Nasdaq Stock Market listing rules because Chan Choon Yew Lester will, through his wholly-owned entities Initium Novum Capital Pte. Ltd., Vita Nova Ventures Pte. Ltd. and EMJ Capital Holdings Pte. Ltd., hold [ ]% of our outstanding Shares (or [ ]% of our outstanding Shares if the Underwriter’s option to purchase additional Shares is exercised in full) immediately after the completion of this Offering. Pursuant to our post-offering memorandum and articles of association, an ordinary resolution to be passed at a shareholders’ meeting requires the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes attaching to the ordinary shares cast at a meeting, while a special resolution requires the affirmative vote of no less than two-thirds of the votes cast attaching to the outstanding and issued ordinary shares cast at a meeting. A special resolution will be required for important matters such as making changes to our post-offering memorandum and articles of association. As a result, Chan Choon Yew Lester will have the ability to control or significantly influence the outcome of matters requiring approval by shareholders. In addition, for so long as we remain a controlled company under that definition, we are permitted to elect to rely on, and may rely on, certain exemptions from corporate governance rules, including an exemption from the rule that a majority of our board of directors must be independent directors. We do not currently plan to utilize the exemptions available for controlled companies after we complete this Offering, but instead, we plan to rely on the exemption available for foreign private issuers to follow our home country governance practices. If we cease to be a foreign private issuer or if we cannot rely on the home country governance practice exemptions for any reason, we may decide to invoke the exemptions available for a controlled company as long as we remain a controlled company. As a result, you will not have the same protection afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to these corporate governance requirements.

We may have conflicts of interest with our Controlling Shareholder and, because of our Controlling Shareholder’s significant ownership interest in our company, we may not be able to resolve such conflicts on terms favorable to us.

Immediately upon the completion of this Offering, our Controlling Shareholder will beneficially own 100% of our outstanding Class B Ordinary Shares, representing [ ]% of our total voting power in the aggregate, assuming the Underwriter does not exercise its option to purchase additional Shares. Accordingly, our Controlling Shareholder will continue to be our controlling shareholder immediately upon the completion of this Offering and may have significant influence in determining the outcome of any corporate actions or other matters that require shareholder approval, such as mergers, consolidations, change of our name, and amendments of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.

The concentration of ownership and voting power may cause transactions to occur in a way that may not be beneficial to you as a holder of our Class A Ordinary Shares in this Offering and may prevent us from doing transactions that would be beneficial to you. Conflicts of interest may arise between our Controlling Shareholder and us in a number of areas relating to our past and ongoing relationships. Potential conflicts of interest that we have identified include the following:

We may require additional funding in the form of equity or debt for our future growth which will cause dilution in Shareholders’ equity interest.

We may pursue opportunities to grow our business through joint ventures, strategic alliance, acquisitions or investment opportunities, following the Offering. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funding on terms that are acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to do so, our future plans and growth may be adversely affected.

An issue of Class A Ordinary Shares or other securities to raise funds will dilute Shareholders’ equity interests and may, in the case of a rights issue, require additional investments by Shareholders. Further, an issue of Class A Ordinary Shares below the then prevailing market price will also affect the value of the Class A Ordinary Shares then held by investors.

Dilution in Shareholders’ equity interests may occur even if the issue of shares is at a premium to the market price. In addition, any additional debt funding may restrict our freedom to operate our business as it may have conditions that:

Volatility or uncertainty of the credit markets could limit our ability to borrow funds or cause our borrowings to be more expensive in the future. As such, we may be forced to pay unattractive interest rates, thereby increasing our interest expense, decreasing our profitability and reducing our financial flexibility if we take on additional debt financing.

Investors may not be able to participate in future issues or certain other equity issues of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

In the event that we issue new Class A Ordinary Shares, we will be under no obligation to offer those Class A Ordinary Shares to our existing Shareholders at the time of issue, except where we elect to conduct a rights issue. However, in electing to conduct a rights issue or certain other equity issues, we will have the discretion and may also be subject to certain regulations as to the procedures to be followed in making such rights available to Shareholders or in disposing of such rights for the benefit of such Shareholders and making the net proceeds available to them. In addition, we may not offer such rights to our existing Shareholders having an address in jurisdictions outside of Singapore.

Accordingly, certain Shareholders may be unable to participate in future equity offerings by us and may experience dilution in their shareholdings as a result.

We plan to reinvest all of our future earnings, to the extent we have earnings, in order to expand our product and services offerings and to cover operating costs and capital needs, and to otherwise become and remain competitive. We do not plan to pay any cash dividends with respect to our securities in the foreseeable future. As we are a company with a limited operating history, we may not be able to generate, at any time, sufficient surplus cash that would be available for distribution to the holders of our Shares as a dividend. Therefore, you should not expect to receive immediate cash dividends on the Class A Ordinary Shares we are offering. Consequently, investors may need to rely on sales of their Class A Ordinary Shares after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any future gains on their investment. In addition, the laws of the Cayman Islands impose restrictions on our ability to declare and pay dividends.

If we fail to meet applicable listing requirements, Nasdaq may delist our Class A Ordinary Shares from trading, in which case the liquidity and market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares could decline.

Assuming our Class A Ordinary Shares are listed on Nasdaq on the closing of the Offering, we cannot assure you that we will be able to meet the continued listing standards of Nasdaq in the future. If we fail to comply with the applicable listing standards and Nasdaq delists our Class A Ordinary Shares, we and our Shareholders could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

The National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or pre-empts the states from regulating the sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” Because we expect that our Class A Ordinary Shares will be listed on Nasdaq, such securities will be covered securities. Although the states are pre-empted from regulating the sale of our securities, the federal statute does allow the states to investigate companies if there is a suspicion of fraud, and, if there is a finding of fraudulent activity, then the states can regulate or bar the sale of covered securities in a particular case. Further, if we were no longer listed on Nasdaq, our securities would not be covered securities and we would be subject to regulations in each state in which we offer our securities.

We will incur significant expenses and devote other significant resources and management time as a result of being a public company, which may negatively impact our financial performance and could cause our results of operations and financial condition to suffer.

We will incur significant legal, accounting, insurance and other expenses as a result of being a public company. Laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure for public companies, including the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, regulations related thereto and the rules and regulations of the SEC and Nasdaq, will significantly increase our costs as well as the time that must be devoted to compliance matters. We expect that compliance with these laws, rules, regulations and standards will substantially increase our expenses, including our legal and accounting costs, and make some of our operating activities more time-consuming and costly. These new public company obligations also will require attention from our senior management and could divert their attention away from the day-to-day management of our business. We also expect these laws, rules, regulations and standards to make it more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board of Directors or as officers. As a result of the foregoing, we expect a substantial increase in legal, accounting, insurance and certain other expenses in the future, which will negatively impact our financial performance and could cause our results of operations and financial condition to suffer. Furthermore, if we are unable to satisfy our obligations as a public company, we could be subject to delisting of our Shares, fines, sanctions and other regulatory actions and potential civil litigation.

If we fail to maintain an effective system of disclosure controls and internal controls over financial reporting, our ability to timely produce accurate financial statements or comply with applicable regulations could be impaired.

Prior to filing the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, we were a private company with limited accounting personnel and resources to address our internal controls over financial reporting. Our management has not completed an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting and our independent registered public accounting firm has not conducted an audit of our internal controls over financial reporting. However, in connection with the audits of our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we and our independent registered public accounting firm identified material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting as well as other control deficiencies for the above mentioned periods. As defined in the standards established by the PCAOB, a “material weakness” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal controls over financial reporting. There is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement in our annual or interim financial statements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weakness identified is related to lack of sufficient personnel adequately trained in and have appropriate knowledge of U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting requirements to properly address complex U.S. GAAP accounting issues and related disclosures to fulfil U.S. GAAP and SEC financial reporting requirements. We are currently in the process of implementing several measures to address the material weaknesses identified, including expanding the capabilities of existing accounting and financial personnel by implementing regular and continuous U.S. GAAP training programs, and preparing comprehensive accounting policies, manuals and closing procedures to improve the quality and accuracy of our period-end financial closing process. We may incur significant costs in the implementation of these measures.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we maintain effective internal disclosure controls and procedures over our financial reporting. We are continuing to develop and refine our disclosure controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we will file with the SEC will be recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods and as otherwise specified in SEC rules, and that information required to be disclosed in reports under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our principal Executive Officers and financial officers. We are also continuing to improve our internal controls over financial reporting.

Ensuring that we have effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting in place so that we can produce accurate financial statements on a timely basis is a costly and time-consuming effort that will need to be re-evaluated frequently. Our internal controls over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Beginning with our second annual report on Form 20-F after we become a company whose securities are publicly listed in the United States, we will be required, pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, to make a formal assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, and once we cease to be an emerging growth company, we will be required to include an attestation report on internal controls over financial reporting issued by our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. During our evaluation of our internal controls, if we identify one or more material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting, we will be unable to assert that our internal controls over financial reporting are effective. We cannot assure you that there will not be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal controls over financial reporting in the future. Any failure to maintain internal controls over financial reporting could severely inhibit our ability to accurately report our financial condition, or results of operations.

Investors may have difficulty enforcing judgments against us, our Directors and management.

The GrowHub Limited is incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a majority of our directors and officers reside outside the United States. Moreover, many of these persons do not have significant assets in the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons, or to recover against us or them on judgments of U.S. courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws.

Harney Westwood & Riegels Singapore LLP, our counsel with respect to the laws of the Cayman Islands, has advised us that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the Cayman Islands would recognize or enforce against us judgments of courts of the United States based on certain civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws, and entertain original actions brought in each respective jurisdiction against us or our Directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty regarding Cayman Islands law related to whether a judgment obtained from the U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws will be determined by the courts of the Cayman Islands as penal or punitive in nature. If such a determination is made, the courts of the Cayman Islands will not recognize or enforce the judgment against a Cayman Islands company, such as our company. As the courts of the Cayman Islands have yet to rule of making such a determination in relation judgments obtained from the U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws, it is uncertain whether such judgments would be enforceable in the Cayman Islands.

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

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

Further, shareholders of Cayman Islands exempted companies like us have no general rights under Cayman Islands law to inspect corporate records (other than the memorandum and articles of association, a list of the current directors of the company, the register of mortgages and charges and any special resolutions passed by our shareholders) or to obtain copies of lists of shareholders of these companies. Our Directors are not required under our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to make our corporate records available for inspection by our shareholders. This may make it more difficult for you to obtain the information needed to establish any facts necessary for a shareholder resolution or to solicit proxies from other shareholders in connection with a proxy contest.

Certain corporate governance practices in the Cayman Islands (which is our home country), also differ significantly from requirements for companies incorporated in other jurisdictions such as the United States. To the extent we choose to follow home country practice with respect to corporate governance matters, our shareholders may be afforded less protection than they otherwise would under rules and regulations applicable to U.S. domestic issuers.

As a result of all of the above, our public shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by our management, members of our Board of Directors or our Controlling Shareholder than they would as public shareholders of a company incorporated in the United States.

Also, our principal executive offices and substantially all of our assets are located in Singapore. It is possible that the Singapore courts may not (i) recognize and enforce judgments of courts in the United States, based upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state or territory of the United States; or (ii) enter judgments in original actions brought in the Singapore courts based solely on the civil liability provisions of these securities laws. An in personam final and conclusive judgment (that is, in general, a judgment that makes a final determination of rights between the parties and cannot be re-opened or altered by the court that delivered it, or be overridden by another body not being an appellate or supervisory body, although it may be subject to an appeal) in the federal or state courts of the United States (provided that it has jurisdiction over the parties subject to such judgment) under which a fixed or ascertainable sum of money is payable, may generally be enforced as a debt in the Singapore courts. However, the Singapore courts are unlikely to enforce a foreign judgment if (a) the foreign judgment is inconsistent with a prior local judgment or earlier foreign judgement recognized in Singapore that is binding on the same parties; (b) the enforcement of the foreign judgment would contravene the public policy of Singapore; (c) the proceedings in which the foreign judgment was obtained were contrary to principles of natural justice; (d) the foreign judgment was obtained by fraud; or (e) the enforcement of the foreign judgment amounts to the direct or indirect enforcement of a foreign penal, revenue or other public law.

The laws of the Cayman Islands relating to the protection of the interest of minority shareholders are different from those in the United States.

Our corporate affairs are governed by the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, by the Companies Act and common law of Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take action against our directors, action by minority shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors to us under Cayman Islands law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands and our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands as well as from English common law, the decisions of whose courts are of persuasive authority, but are not binding on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors under Cayman Islands law are different from what they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a different body of securities laws as compared to the United States, and certain states, such as Delaware, may have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholders derivative action in a Federal court of the United States.

The laws of the Cayman Islands relating to the protection of the interests of minority shareholders differ in certain respects from those established under statutes or judicial precedent in existence in the United States and other jurisdictions. For instance, while under Delaware law, controlling shareholders owe fiduciary duties to the companies they control and their minority shareholders, under Cayman Islands law, our controlling shareholders do not owe any such fiduciary duties to our company or to our minority shareholders. Accordingly, our controlling shareholders may exercise their powers as shareholders, including the exercise of voting rights in respect of their shares, in such manner as they think fit. Such differences may mean that the remedies available to our minority shareholders may be different from those they would have under the laws of other jurisdictions, including the United States. Potential investors should be aware that there is a risk that provisions of the Companies Act may not offer the same protection as the relevant laws and regulations in the United States may offer, and should consider obtaining independent legal advice on the implications of investing in foreign-incorporated companies.

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

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

The JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company does not need to comply with any new or revised financial accounting standards until such date that a private company is otherwise required to comply with such new or revised accounting standards. We do not plan to “opt out” of such exemptions afforded to an emerging growth company. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to those of companies that comply with public company effective dates.

We qualify as a foreign private issuer and, as a result, we will not be subject to U.S. proxy rules and will be subject to Exchange Act reporting obligations that permit less detailed and less frequent reporting than that of a U.S. domestic public company.

Upon the closing of this Offering, we will report under the Exchange Act as a non-U.S. company with foreign private issuer status. Because we qualify as a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act, we are exempt from certain provisions of the Exchange Act that are applicable to U.S. domestic public companies, including (i) the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act; (ii) the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their stock ownership and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time; and (iii) the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q containing unaudited financial and other specified information, or current reports on Form 8-K upon the occurrence of specified significant events. In addition, our officers, Directors and principal Shareholders are exempt from the reporting and “short-swing” profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder. Therefore, our Shareholders may not know on a timely basis when our officers, directors and principal Shareholders purchase or sell our Ordinary Shares. In addition, foreign private issuers are not required to file their annual report on Form 20-F until one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year, while U.S. domestic issuers that are accelerated filers are required to file their annual report on Form 10-K within seventy-five (75) days after the end of each fiscal year. Foreign private issuers also are exempt from Regulation Fair Disclosure, aimed at preventing issuers from making selective disclosures of material information. As a result of the above, you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are not foreign private issuers.

If we lose our status as a foreign private issuer, we would be required to comply with the Exchange Act reporting and other requirements applicable to U.S. domestic issuers, which are more detailed and extensive than the requirements for foreign private issuers. We may also be required to make changes in our corporate governance practices in accordance with various SEC and Nasdaq rules. The regulatory and compliance costs to us under U.S. securities laws if we are required to comply with the reporting requirements applicable to a U.S. domestic issuer may be significantly higher than the cost we would incur as a foreign private issuer. As a result, we expect that a loss of foreign private issuer status would increase our legal and financial compliance costs and would make some activities highly time consuming and costly. We also expect that if we were required to comply with the rules and regulations applicable to U.S. domestic issuers, it would make it more difficult and expensive for us to obtain and maintain directors and officers liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage. These rules and regulations could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our Board of Directors.

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

As discussed above, we are a foreign private issuer, and therefore, we are not required to comply with all of the periodic disclosure and current reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. The determination of foreign private issuer status is made annually on the last business day of an issuer’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter. We would lose our foreign private issuer status if, for example, more than 50% of our outstanding voting securities are directly or indirectly held by residents of the United States and we fail to meet additional requirements necessary to maintain our foreign private issuer status. If we lose our foreign private issuer status on this date, we will be required to file with the SEC periodic reports and registration statements on U.S. domestic issuer forms, which are more detailed and extensive than the forms available to a foreign private issuer. We will also have to mandatorily comply with U.S. federal proxy requirements, and our officers, Directors, Executive Officers and Controlling Shareholders will become subject to the short-swing profit disclosure and recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we will lose our ability to rely upon exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements under the Nasdaq rules. As a U.S. listed public company that is not a foreign private issuer, we will incur significant additional legal, accounting and other expenses that we will not incur as a foreign private issuer, and accounting, reporting and other expenses in order to maintain a listing on a U.S. securities exchange.

As a foreign private issuer, we do not expect to be subject to certain Nasdaq corporate governance rules applicable to U.S. listed companies.

As a foreign private issuer, we are entitled to rely on a provision in Nasdaq’s corporate governance rules that allows us to follow Cayman Islands corporate law with regards to certain aspects of corporate governance. This allows us to follow certain corporate governance practices that differ in significant respects from the corporate governance requirements applicable to U.S. companies listed on Nasdaq.

In addition, our Audit Committee is not subject to additional Nasdaq requirements applicable to listed U.S. companies, including an affirmative determination that all members of the audit committee are “independent,” using more stringent criteria than those applicable to the Company under relevant SEC rules. Nasdaq’s corporate governance rules require listed U.S. companies to, among other things, seek shareholder approval for the implementation of certain equity compensation plans and issuances of shares, which the Company is not required to follow as a foreign private issuer. However, following this Offering, we will voluntarily have a majority of independent directors and our audit committee will consist of three independent directors.

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

In general, we will be treated as a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for any taxable year in which either (1) at least 75% of our gross income (looking through certain 25% or more-owned subsidiaries) is passive income or (2) at least 50% of the average value of our assets (looking through certain 25% or more-owned subsidiaries) is attributable to assets that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income. Passive income generally includes, without limitation, dividends, interest, rents, royalties, and gains from the disposition of passive assets. If we are determined to be a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a U.S. Holder (as defined in the Section of this prospectus captioned “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”) of our securities, the U.S. Holder may be subject to increased U.S. federal income tax liability and may be subject to additional reporting requirements. The determination of whether we are a PFIC is a fact-intensive determination made on an annual basis applying principles and methodologies that in some circumstances are unclear and subject to varying interpretation. Our actual PFIC status for any taxable year will not be determinable until after the end of such taxable year. Accordingly, there can be no assurance with respect to our status as a PFIC for our current taxable year or any subsequent taxable year. We urge U.S. Holders to consult their own tax advisors regarding the possible application of the PFIC rules in light of their individual circumstances.

We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this Offering and may not use them effectively.

Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds, including for any of the purposes described in the section titled “Use of Proceeds” and in such order of priority as our management may determine in its discretion, and you will not have the opportunity as part of your investment decision to assess whether the net proceeds are being used appropriately. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the net proceeds from this Offering, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could harm our business.

We may regularly encounter potential conflicts of interest, and our failure to identify and address such conflicts of interest could adversely affect our business.

We face the possibility of actual, potential, or perceived conflicts of interest in the ordinary course of our business operations. Conflicts of interest may exist between (i) our different businesses; (ii) us and our clients; (iii) our clients; (iv) us and our employees; (v) our clients and our employees, (vi) us and our Controlling Shareholder and their controlling entities, or (vii) our dealer-shareholders and our other shareholders. As we expand the scope of our business and our client base, it is critical for us to be able to timely address potential conflicts of interest, including situations where two or more interests within our businesses naturally exist but are in competition or conflict. We have put in place internal control and risk management procedures that are designed to identify and address conflicts of interest, including a procedure for presenting potential conflicts of interest to the audit committee of our Board of Directors. However, appropriately identifying and managing actual, potential, or perceived conflicts of interest is complex and difficult, and our reputation and our clients’ confidence in us could be damaged if we fail, or appear to fail, to deal appropriately with one or more actual, potential, or perceived conflicts of interest. It is possible that actual, potential, or perceived conflicts of interest could also give rise to client dissatisfaction, litigation, or regulatory enforcement actions. Regulatory scrutiny of, or litigation in connection with, conflicts of interest could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, which could materially and adversely affect our business in a number of ways, including a reluctance of some potential clients and counterparties to do business with us. Any of the foregoing could materially and adversely affect our reputation, business, financial condition, and results of operations.

A conflict of interest occurs when an individual’s private interest (or the interest of a member of his or her family or close friend(s) or business associate(s)) interferes, or even appears to interfere, with the interests of our company as a whole. A conflict of interest can arise when an employee, officer or director (or a member of his or her family or a close friend(s) or business associate(s)) takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work for our Company objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest also arise when an employee, officer or director (or a member of his or her family or close friend(s) or business associate(s)) receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position in our Company.

Directors and executive officers must seek determinations and prior authorizations or approvals of potential conflicts of interest exclusively from our audit committee. All other employees are required to approach our Chief Executive Officer or our Chief Financial Officer if they have any questions about reporting a suspected conflict of interest.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if they publish a negative report regarding our Class A Ordinary Shares, the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our Class A Ordinary Shares may depend in part on the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us or our business. We do not have any control over these analysts. If one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade us, the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of our Company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which could cause the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares and the trading volume to decline.

Our dual-class voting structure may render our Class A Ordinary Shares ineligible for inclusion in certain stock market indices, and thus adversely affect the trading price and liquidity of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

Certain shareholder advisory firms have announced changes to their eligibility criteria for inclusion of shares of public companies on certain indices, including the S&P 500, to exclude companies with multiple classes of shares and companies whose public shareholders hold no more than 5% of total voting power from being added to such indices. In addition, several shareholder advisory firms have announced their opposition to the use of multiple class structures. As a result, the dual class structure of our Ordinary Shares may prevent the inclusion of our Class A Ordinary Shares in such indices and may cause shareholder advisory firms to publish negative commentary about our corporate governance practices or otherwise seek to cause us to change our capital structure. Any such exclusion from indices could result in a less active trading market for our Class A Ordinary Shares. Any actions or publications by shareholder advisory firms critical of our corporate governance practices or capital structure could also adversely affect the value of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

Our dual-class voting structure will limit your ability to influence corporate matters and could discourage others from pursuing any change of control transactions that holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares may view as beneficial.

Upon completion of this Offering, we will have a dual class ordinary share structure. Our Ordinary Shares will be divided into Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares. Holders of Class A and Class B Ordinary Shares will have the same rights, including dividend rights, except that holders of Class A Ordinary Shares will be entitled to one vote per share, while holders of Class B Ordinary Shares will be entitled to ten votes per share, and Class B Ordinary Shares may be converted into the same number of Class A Ordinary Shares by the holders thereof at any time, while Class A Ordinary Shares cannot be converted into Class B Ordinary Shares under any circumstances. Upon the transfer of any Class B Ordinary Share by a holder thereof to any person other than certain permitted transferees or a change in beneficiary owner of such Class B Ordinary Shares, such Class B Ordinary Share will be automatically and immediately converted into one Class A Ordinary Share.

Upon the completion of this Offering, Chan Choon Yew Lester will continue to beneficially own all of our Class B Ordinary Shares. These Class B Ordinary Shares will constitute approximately [*]% of our total issued and outstanding share capital immediately after the completion of this Offering and [*]% of the aggregate voting power of our total issued and outstanding share capital immediately after the completion of this Offering due to the disparate voting powers associated with our dual-class share structure, assuming the Underwriter does not exercise the over-allotment option. As a result of the dual-class share structure and the concentration of ownership, holders of Class B Ordinary Shares will have considerable influence over matters such as decisions regarding mergers and consolidations, election of directors and other significant corporate actions. Such holders may take actions that are not in the best interest of us or our other shareholders. This concentration of ownership may discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our company, which could have the effect of depriving our other shareholders of the opportunity to receive a premium for their shares as part of a sale of our Company and may reduce the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of current or historical facts are forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including, among others, those listed under the sections titled “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Business,” “Regulations,” and other sections in this prospectus, that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

In some cases, you can identify these forward-looking statements by words or phrases such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “aim,” “estimate,” “potential,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “likely to” or other similar expressions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. These forward-looking statements include statements about:

You should read this prospectus and the documents that we refer to in this prospectus with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from and worse than what we expect. Other sections of this prospectus include additional factors which could adversely impact our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in an evolving environment. New risk factors and uncertainties emerge from time to time and it is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors and uncertainties, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The forward-looking statements made in this prospectus relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in this prospectus. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You should read this prospectus and the documents that we refer to in this prospectus and have filed as exhibits to the registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part, completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.

This prospectus also contains statistical data and estimates that we obtained from industry publications and reports generated by government or third-party providers of market intelligence. Although we have not independently verified the data, we believe that the publications and reports are reliable.

We estimate that we will receive net proceeds from this Offering of approximately $ million, or approximately $ million if the Underwriter exercises its option to purchase additional Class A Ordinary Shares in full, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. These estimates are based upon an assumed initial Offer Price of $ per share, the midpoint of the estimated range of the initial public Offer Price shown on the front cover of this prospectus.

We plan to use the net proceeds of this Offering in the following order of priority:

To the extent that our actual net proceeds is not sufficient to fund all of the proposed purposes, we will decrease our allocation of the net proceeds for the purposes set out above on a pro rata basis. We would anticipate raising additional capital through equity or debt financing sufficient to fund our proposed uses above.

The amounts and timing of any expenditures will vary depending on the amount of cash generated by our operations, and the rate of growth, if any, of our business, and our plans and business conditions. 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 will have significant flexibility in applying 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.

Pending deployment of the net proceeds for the uses described above, the funds may be placed in short-term deposits with financial institutions or used to invest in short-term money market instruments.

We have no formal dividend policy. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to fund the development and growth of our business and to repay any indebtedness and, therefore, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Additionally, our ability to pay dividends on our Shares is limited by various factors such as our future financial performance and bank covenants. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors, subject to compliance with covenants in current and future agreements governing our and our subsidiaries’ indebtedness, and will depend on our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors that our Board of Directors may deem relevant. Under Cayman Islands law, a Cayman Islands company may pay a dividend on its shares out of either profit or share premium, provided that in no circumstances may a dividend be paid if following such payment the Company would be unable to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business.

You should read this table together with “Use of Proceeds” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus.

If you invest in our Class A Ordinary Shares, your interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between the initial public Offer Price per share and our net tangible book value per share after this Offering. Dilution results from the fact that the initial public Offer Price per share is substantially in excess of the book value per ordinary share attributable to the existing Shareholders for our presently outstanding shares.

Net tangible book value represents the amount of our total assets, excluding goodwill and other intangible assets, less our total liabilities. Our net tangible book value as of December 31, 2023 was US$[ ] per Ordinary Share.

After giving effect to the issuance and sale of [_________] Class A Ordinary Shares in this Offering at an assumed initial public Offer Price of US$[____] per share (the midpoint of the estimated price range set forth on the cover of this prospectus), and after deducting underwriting discounts and estimated Offering expenses payable by us, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of December 31, 2023 would have been US$[____] per outstanding Class A Ordinary Share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of US$[__________] to existing shareholders and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of US$[____] per Class A Ordinary Share to investors purchasing Class A Ordinary Shares in this Offering. The following table illustrates such dilution:

The following table summarizes, on a pro forma as adjusted basis as of December 31, 2023, the total number of Class A Ordinary Shares purchased from us, the total cash consideration paid to us, and the average price per share paid by existing Shareholders and by investors in this Offering. The table below reflects an assumed initial public Offer Price of US$[____] per share (the midpoint of the estimated price range set forth on the cover of this prospectus), for Class A Ordinary Shares purchased in this Offering and excludes underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated Offering expenses payable by us.

The dilution information in this section is presented for illustrative purposes only. Our as adjusted net tangible book value following the consummation of this Offering is subject to adjustment based on the actual initial public Offer Price of our Class A Ordinary Shares and other terms of this Offering determined at pricing.

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

The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. In addition to historical information, the following discussion and analysis in this section and throughout this prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The Company’s actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus. See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

The GrowHub Limited is an investment holding company incorporated on April 12, 2024 under the laws of the Cayman Islands. Headquartered in Singapore, The GrowHub Limited and its subsidiaries (collectively termed “the Company”) span the Asia Pacific region and render both services and sale of goods to its customers. Along with the provision of a product traceability service for companies, the Company trades in food, agriculture, skincare, and other products, and provides IT professional services.

Prior to 2023, the Company provided professional services in the form of software development and consultancy services through its IT consultancy division of in-house developers. In 2023, management undertook a strategic review and made a transformative shift to develop the revolutionary GrowHub Platform (the “Platform”) into a Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) model. This strategic move provided the Company with its newest business Division – the GrowHub Platform, marking a significant milestone in the Company’s journey to providing and implementing cutting-edge traceability technology solutions. From the third quarter of 2023, the Platform was quickly launched, and external customers were onboarded.

In addition to the professional and subscription services mentioned, the Company, through its subsidiary GrowHub Apac, engages in the trade of food, skincare and other fast-moving consumer goods by utilizing its network in Australia, Japan, Malaysia and Singapore to expand in the Asia Pacific region.

On August 23, 2024, in preparation for this offering, our Group completed an internal reorganization pursuant to which GrowHub Innovations Singapore ultimately became a wholly-owned subsidiary of GrowHub BVI, and GrowHub BVI became a wholly owned subsidiary of GrowHub Cayman. Upon completion of the aforementioned, the Company became the ultimate holding company of our operating subsidiaries.

The Company operates through the following business divisions: the GrowHub Platform, the Product Trading Division and the IT Consultancy Division. With the expected launch of the GrowHub Innovation Centre in Western Australia in the first half of 2025 as part of the Australian Government’s Food Innovation Precinct Western Australia (“FIPWA”), we expect to commence fostering and developing new industry innovations that we can bring to local and global markets.

The Platform is built on a Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) model making it easily available and scalable to organizations from start-ups to large enterprises. Food suppliers, distributors, retailers, and other stakeholders pay a recurring fee to access the Platform’s three key features:

Subscription tiers may vary based on the features selected, the level of functionality and usage volume required by the customer, offering scalability and flexibility to meet diverse business needs. Monthly subscriptions range from US$160 to US$300. We will be focusing our attention on attracting and onboarding more customers in 2024.

Prior to 2023, the Company operated a normal trading operation where we purchased goods and sold them to our customers on a wholesale basis. Moving forward in 2024, we will be focusing more on facilitation of trade where customers can consign their goods to the Company, fully utilizing the Company’s distribution network in the Asia Pacific region. Due to our expansive network of suppliers and retailers, we will be able facilitate seamless placement of products from our Platform in both traditional retail and increasingly popular online channels. By analyzing transaction data, consumer behavior patterns, and market trends inherent to the Platform, the Company will utilize artificial intelligence (“AI”) technology to develop optimum product placement strategies and actionable insights that can maximize revenue generation for the Company and our network of partners. Using AI, our system gathers data from the QR code scans, various ecommerce websites where our products are sold, as well as transaction records. From there, our AI system integrates disparate data sets, ensuring comprehensive and consistent data for analysis. AI algorithms detect and correct errors and standardize them to ensure accuracy and reliability for analyses.

Our AI models analyze historical data to predict future trends. The analytics enable our clients to better understand the preferences of consumers, their interaction frequencies, and from these data to forecast future sales. These insights help our clients tailor their marketing strategies to more effectively target their desired market segment, increasing the chances of successful engagement and sales. This division will also be poised to trade any newly launched products developed at the GrowHub Innovation Centre.

The Company has an in-house technology team that is able to provide a range of professional services to customers in the form of software development and consultancy services. It generates revenue in the form of both customized projects as well as retainer fees.

Our operating results are primarily affected by those factors set out in the section titled ‘‘Risk Factors’’ in this prospectus and those set out below:

ESG refers to a set of criteria used by investors and stakeholders to evaluate a company’s sustainability and ethical practices. On a global level, ESG is being championed by various stakeholders, including governments, businesses, investors and civil society. Certain countries in APAC, such as Japan, China, Singapore and Australia have already introduced guidance for listed companies on disclosure of ESG-related information in their annual reports. Corporate leaders are also voluntarily adopting ESG principles and practices as part of their business strategies as they recognize the importance of sustainability, ethical conduct and good governance for long term value creation, risk management and stakeholder engagement. As society in general becomes more conscious of what they are consuming, they will decide to learn more about the origin of the food products and utilize the traceability function provided by companies on the Platform. This in turn will drive more companies to implement and account for sustainability initiatives across their supply chain, accelerating the growth of the Company.

We are committed to staying at the forefront of technological advancements, and our ongoing investment in AI ensures that we can continue to innovate and enhance our Platform, providing a better user experience. Investment in data analytics ensures that we remain agile, customer-centric and provide value to companies and individual consumers. Armed with the AI-driven analytics, we can better tailor our product offerings to meet specific customer needs and drive further adoption.

Inflation may impact the cost of the food products globally, potentially leading to compressed profit margins. Inflation tends to drive up the prices of the raw materials needed in food products, eventually leading to an increase in cost at each step of the supply chain. This increase in food product costs can be attributed to various factors, including adverse weather conditions such as droughts, floods, hurricanes or other natural disasters which can damage crops, reduce yields and disrupt supply chains. When supply decreases, prices tend to rise. Fluctuations in energy prices, particularly crude oil prices, can impact transportation and production costs as well. These prices may be passed on to consumers. However, in the fiercely competitive environment, we may encounter challenges when attempting to pass on increased food product costs to customers through higher product prices. Consumers and businesses alike are often sensitive to price changes, and aggressive pricing strategies may negatively affect our revenue and our costs.

We operate in multiple markets, which exposes us to the effects of fluctuations in currency exchange rates as we report our financials and key operational metrics in SGD. In the event that such fluctuations in the relevant foreign currency are substantial and we are unable to pass on our costs to our customers, our earnings, financial position, and results of operation may be affected.

The significant accounting policies which we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results are described below. Refer to “Note 2 — Summary of significant accounting policies” to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus for more detailed information regarding our critical accounting policies.

The Company accounts for its revenue under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The five-step model defined by ASC Topic 606 requires the Company to:

(4) allocate the transaction prices to its performance obligations in those contracts; and

(5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation under those contracts is satisfied. Revenue is recognized when promised services are transferred to the client in an amount that reflects the consideration expected in exchange for those services.

Revenues are generally recognized upon the transfer of control of promised products or services provided to our customers, reflecting the amount of consideration we expect to receive for those products or services.

Professional service revenue is generated through one-time or non-recurring projects with existing or new customers. Consultancy advisory services include feasibility studies and proposal of technology solutions that enhance the customers’ distribution networks and outreach of their products or services in Asia. Other projects include customized development works for specific needs of the clients, AI-based data analytics and market intelligence. A written service agreement detailing the scope of consultancy advisory services, defined milestones, performance obligations delivery, contractual value, and payment terms, is signed by both customer and the Company (service provider) prior to the commencement of the project. The service revenue contract is priced at a fixed fee rate for each performance obligation. The chargeable fee is based at a competitive market rate for a similar service offer. The revenue is recognized upon achieving the agreed project milestones and fulfilling the contractual obligations.

Platform subscription revenue is generated from the Company’s proprietary Web3 enabled cloud-based platform that offers users access to the platform for traceability and data analytics across the entire value chain. Web3 is a new iteration of the World Wide Web which incorporates concepts such as decentralization, blockchain technologies, and token-based economics. The GrowHub Platform embraces the principles of Web3 by utilizing blockchain, with an aim to ensure that products are traceable across the supply chain, from production to consumer, facilitating transparency and trust. Currently, the core of Web3 concept and feature for our platform – blockchain-based traceability – is fully operational. The GrowHub Platform conforms to open standards for Web3, such as the ERC 1155 standard. An open standard is a publicly accessible and usable specification that ensures interoperability and flexibility across different systems and platforms; and the ERC 1155 standard is a token standard on the Ethereum blockchain that allows for the creation and management of multiple types of tokens, both fungible and non-fungible, within a single smart contract. In addition, some of our services which are yet to be enabled on the platform are designed with the capability to be operated by our clients directly on blockchain through our smart contracts, which aligns with Web3 principles by leveraging blockchain technology, smart contracts, and open standards to create a decentralized, interoperable, and user-empowered platform.

For generation of platform subscription revenue, a written software subscription service agreement detailing the extent of access rights granted, duration of the access, contractual value, and payment terms, is signed by both customer and the Company (SaaS provider). The subscription revenue contract is priced at per user login. Under this per-active user pricing model, customers pay a predetermined fee for each login user who actively uses the Company’s SaaS product within a defined period, typically monthly or annually. The SaaS revenue is recognized ratably over the agreed subscription period.

Transaction-based revenue generated through delivery of identified goods to customers at the agreed price. The Company acts as a pass-through and therefore minimizes the risk of inventory. Customers place orders via the Company’s in-house ecommerce platform or external ecommerce marketplaces. Upon successful delivery of non-defective goods and accepts the good in the original state with no demand of refund or good return by the customer, revenue is recognized

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These principles require us to make certain estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements.

A discussion of recent accounting pronouncements is included in “Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our audited consolidated financial statements” included elsewhere in this prospectus.

The following table summarizes the consolidated results of our operations for the year ended December 31, 2022, and 2023, respectively.

The following table summarizes the unaudited interim condensed consolidated results of our operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2024, respectively. The information for each of these periods has been prepared on the same basis as our audited annual consolidated financial statements and reflects, in the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature that are necessary for the fair statement of the results of operations for these periods. This data should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. Historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year or any other period.

Our revenue consists of three main categories. The following table provides financial information for each of these operating groups.

Our principal revenue sources for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023 were professional services, Platform subscription and sale of goods. Our revenue for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023 were S$715,196 and S$128,531, respectively, representing a decrease of 82.03%. This was mainly due to the Company’s strategic decision in the first half year of 2023 to change our focus from providing professional services to focusing primarily on the SaaS Platform. We believe our Platform will be able to meet the needs of the industry, in line with the growing emphasis on ESG within the Asian Pacific region.

Revenue from professional services decreased by S$497,583, or 86.63%, from S$574,409 for the year ended December 31, 2022, to S$76,826 for the year ended December 31, 2023. Such decrease was mainly due to the reduction in IT consultancy service projects because of our decision in the first half year of 2023 to divert our internal software consultants to develop our Platform. This service segment is expected to increase over time if customers from the SaaS platform request add-on enhancements. Professional service revenue such as feasibility studies, proposal and development of customized IT solutions accounted for 80% of our total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to 60% for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Revenue from Platform subscription increased by S$4,284, or 100%, as a new revenue stream for the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was due to the launch of the Platform in August 2023, which saw its first users sign contracts in the last quarter of the year ended December 31, 2023. We expect to attract more users in the future as we increase our marketing efforts. Revenue from Platform subscription accounted for 3% of our total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023, as compared to 0% for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Revenue from sales of goods decreased by S$93,366, or 66.32%, from S$140,787 for the year ended December 31, 2022, to S$47,421 for the year ended December 31, 2023. Such decrease was due to the decision in 2023 to stop trading in perishable group of products, resulting in a drop in revenue as the Company moved to a consignment model We expect new products to be identified and distributed after the launch of the GrowHub Innovation Centre.

Our revenue consists of three main categories. The following table provides financial information for each of these operating groups for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2024, respectively.

Our principal revenue sources for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024 were professional services, Platform subscription, and sale of goods. Our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024 were S$31,541 and S$180,491, respectively, representing an increase of 472.24%. This significant increase in total revenue is mainly attributed to the return of professional service revenue, which resumed after the successful introduction of our Platform.

Revenue from professional services increased by S$141,538 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to no revenue generated from this segment during the same period in 2023. The surge in professional services revenue was driven by the resumption of IT consultancy and software implementation projects, which had been temporarily reduced in early 2023 to utilise our team for the internal development of our Platform. As we continue to build and enhance our Platform, we expect this segment to grow further in response to customer demand for customized solutions and professional consultations tied to our Platform. Professional services accounted for 79% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 0% for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Revenue from Platform subscription was S$14,784 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing 8% of total revenue. The launch of our Platform in late 2023 has generated positive momentum, and we anticipate that revenue from Platform subscription will increase as we onboard more users and continue to expand our marketing efforts. Revenue from Platform subscription accounted for 8% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 0% for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Revenue from sale of goods decreased by S$7,372, or 23.37%, from S$31,541 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, to S$24,169 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This decline was primarily due to the strategic shift in our business model, as we phased out trading in perishable goods to focus on higher-margin items and consignment-based sales. Despite the decline, we anticipate potential future growth in this segment as we introduce new products and expand distribution following the launch of the GrowHub Innovation Centre. Revenue from sale of goods accounted for 13% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 100% for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Our purchases and other direct costs increased by S$17,020, or 18.20%, from S$93,505 for the year ended December 31, 2022, to S$110,525 for the year ended December 31, 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2022, there were larger purchases of goods as well as higher costs attributable to the import and storage of the higher inventory levels. This was subsequently reduced in 2023 due to reduced purchases of goods and lower inventory levels.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2024, our purchases and other direct costs decreased by S$67,289, or 60.22%, from S$111,747 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, to S$44,458 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This substantial decrease in direct costs is primarily due to our strategic decision to reduce the purchase of perishable goods and shift towards a consignment-based model.

In the first half of 2023, we had higher direct costs associated with the procurement of goods, including higher storage costs for inventory. However, as we restructured our business model in the latter part of 2023, focusing on more scalable and lower-cost operations, particularly with the adoption of consignment models, we were able to significantly reduce these expenditures. This reduction also aligns with our shift in focus toward our Platform and other high-margin services, which require lower direct costs in comparison to the traditional sale of goods.

Our inventory write-offs increased by S$88,506, or 105.62%, from S$83,797 for the year ended December 31, 2022, to S$172,303 for the year ended December 31, 2023. In 2022 and 2023, we had made purchases of goods to launch new product lines. However, these inventories were perishable in nature and led to larger write offs in 2023 compared to 2022. Moving forward in 2024, we will be changing to a consignment model instead of direct purchases to reduce inventory write-offs.

Our inventory write-offs decreased by S$56,096, or 98.48%, from S$56,962 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, to S$866 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This large reduction was due to the introduction of the consignment model in late 2023, which has already started showing positive impacts on our cost structure and inventory management practices.

Our employee benefits expenses remained largely unchanged with a slight increase of S$17,225, or 2.34%, from S$736,077 for the year ended December 31, 2022, to S$753,302 for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Our employee benefits expenses decreased significantly by S$222,349, or 44.11%, from S$504,084 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, to S$281,735 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This sharp decline was primarily driven by cost-saving measures, including a reduction in the workforce and the realignment of internal resources to focus on more scalable operations.

Our depreciation and amortization expenses increased by S$39,606, or 406.09%, from S$9,753 for the year ended December 31, 2022, to S$49,359 for the year ended December 31, 2023. The large increase is in line with the amortization of our intangible assets over time.

Our depreciation and amortization expenses decreased by S$6,050, or 31.37%, from S$19,285 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, to S$13,235 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This decrease was primarily due to the write-off of an intangible asset in the second half of 2023, which reduced the amortizable base of our intangible assets in for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Our operating lease expenses remained largely unchanged with a slight decrease of S$2,166, or 3.39%, from S$63,972 for the year ended December 31, 2022, to S$61,806 for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Our operating lease expenses increased slightly by S$1,954, or 6.27%, from S$31,141 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, to S$33,095 for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Our other expenses decreased by S$1,017,215 or 59.50%, from S$1,709,636 for the year ended December 31, 2022, to S$692,421 for the year ended December 31, 2023. This was predominantly due to the significant decrease in consulting fees which decreased from S$1,040,969 for the year ended December 31, 2022, to S$186,123 for the year ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of S$854,846. In 2022, there was a one-time consulting fee of S$874,135 for an external consultant to advise on the future setup and operation of the data centre at the GrowHub Innovation Centre. Additional details regarding other expenses are provided in Note 12 to the accompanying financial statements.

Our other expenses increased significantly by S$489,982, or 319.58%, from S$153,319 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, to S$643,301 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This was largely due to a consulting fee of S$479,426 for fund raising activities in the first half of 2024.

We believe that our Group has sufficient working capital for our requirements for at least the next 12 months from June 30, 2024, in the absence of unforeseen circumstances, taking into account the financial resources presently available to us, including cash and cash equivalents on hand, cash flows from our operations and the estimated net proceeds from this Offering.

Beyond June 30, 2025, we expect that the Company’s liquidity and working capital will be dependent upon its ability to obtain new revenue-generating customer contracts, and to secure equity and/or debt financing, including but not limited to, loans from related parties and issuance of equity.

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditure or capital resources that is material to investors.

Inflationary factors, such as increases in personnel and overhead costs, could impair our operating results. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and operating expenses as a percentage of sales revenue if the revenues do not increase with such increased costs.

We are exposed to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to bank loans with variable interest rates which is partially offset by bank balances held at variable rates. It is the Group’s policy to keep its borrowings at variable rates at a minimum so as to minimize the fair value interest rate risk.

Credit risk is controlled by the application of credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures. We manage credit risk through regularly evaluating the collectability of financial assets, based on a combination of factors such as credit worthiness, past transaction history, current economic industry trends and changes in payment patterns. We identify credit risk collectively based on industry and customer type. In measuring the credit risk of our sales to our customers, we mainly reflect the “probability of default” by the customer on its contractual obligations and consider the current financial position of the customer and the current and likely future exposures to the customer.

We are also exposed to liquidity risk, which is risk that we will be unable to provide sufficient capital resources and liquidity to meet our commitments and business needs. Liquidity risk is controlled by the application of financial position analysis and monitoring procedures. To manage liquidity risk, the Group monitors and maintains a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate by the management to finance the Group’s operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows.

As of December 31, 2023, the Group has an outstanding working capital loan due to a related party in the amount of US$3.1 million. We intend to utilize part of the proceeds from this Offering to repay this loan. See “Related Party Transactions” and “Use of Proceeds.” Management monitors the Company’s liquidity position regularly.

While our reporting currency and combined revenues are denominated in the U.S. dollar, most of our operating expenses are denominated in Singapore Dollar. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk as our operating expense may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Singapore Dollar. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign exchange risk.

Our founder, Mr. Chan Choon Yew Lester, began collaborating with the Western Australia state government in 2017. Together with the Peel Development Commission, the Shire of Murray, and other Australian government agencies, they embarked on a mission to develop a commercial strategy for the Peel Food Zone. This vast area covers over 42,000 hectares of land in Western Australia. Their shared vision included several key objectives: increasing agricultural exports to Asia, adding value to food production, and enhancing overall productivity within the region.

Our Company was founded with a clear vision for transparency and fraud prevention in the food supply chain. In 2018, our founder, along with key stakeholders, presented the concept and commercialization strategy for the Peel Business Park to senators in Canberra. Their primary goal was to secure support and funding from the Australia Federal Government to build the Food Innovation Precinct Western Australia (“FIPWA”). This precinct would serve as the flagship hub within the entire 42,000-hectare food zone. The efforts paid off — the Australia Federal government approved a substantial grant of AUD $21.75 million for the innovation precinct. Today, The GrowHub operates and manages the innovation center located within FIPWA, driving innovation, collaboration, and sustainable development in the region.

Our operations began with the incorporation of GrowHub Apac in Singapore in January 2020. In the same year, we further incorporated two other Singapore subsidiaries, namely GrowHub Innovations Singapore and GrowHub Distribution, and one subsidiary in Australia, namely GrowHub Trading. In 2021, we expanded our operations to Japan with the incorporation of GrowHub Japan in June 2021. Our operations continued to grow and in 2022, three additional subsidiaries within our Group were incorporated: GrowHub Technologies, GrowHub Innovations Australia and GrowHub Malaysia.

In contemplation and preparation for this Offering, in April 2024, GrowHub Cayman was incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company to act as the listing vehicle of our Group, and GrowHub BVI was incorporated as a BVI business company which will eventually act as the intermediate holding company and be wholly owned by GrowHub Cayman pursuant to the reorganisation. On August 23, 2024, in preparation for this offering, our Group completed an internal reorganization pursuant to which GrowHub Innovations Singapore ultimately became a wholly-owned subsidiary of GrowHub BVI, and GrowHub BVI became a wholly owned subsidiary of GrowHub Cayman. Upon completion of the aforementioned, the Company became the ultimate holding company of our operating subsidiaries.

This is an offering of the Class A Ordinary Shares of The GrowHub Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability, which is a holding company with no material operations of our own. We conduct our operations through our wholly-owned Singapore, Malaysia, and Australia operating subsidiaries.

Because we are incorporated under the laws of Cayman Islands, you may encounter difficulty protecting your interests as a shareholder, and your ability to protect your rights through the U.S. federal court system may be limited. Please refer to the sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Enforcement of Civil Liabilities” for more information.

Our subsidiaries will remain the same prior to and after this Offering. The chart below illustrates our corporate structure and identifies our subsidiaries prior to and after our Group’s initial public offering:

Our Controlling Shareholder currently both directly and indirectly, owns 48.41% of our Ordinary Shares and, upon consummation of this Offering, our Controlling Shareholder will own [ ]% of our Ordinary Shares, which represent [ ]% of the total voting power of our outstanding Ordinary Shares. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure.”

The rise of cases of food adulteration and foodborne diseases has highlighted the need for comprehensive and effective traceability systems that can trace the origin and journey of the products as they move through the supply chain, from farm to table.

These companies offer a range of technologies and services to enable food businesses to track and trace their products throughout the supply chain. Here are some top companies known for their expertise in food traceability in the Asia Pacific region:

Our Company operates at the intersection of technology and supply chain management in the food industry, focusing on enhancing product traceability and authenticity. With a commitment to innovation and sustainability, we have developed a multi-faceted approach to address industry challenges. Our business currently comprises two main divisions, which are the GrowHub Platform and our product trading facilitation offering. We are currently preparing for the launch of our third main business division, namely, the GrowHub Innovation Centre (the “GrowHub Innovation Centre”), which is expected to start generating revenue by the end of the second quarter of 2025. Each division will play a vital role in our mission to improve transparency and efficiency in businesses.

Central to the Company’s operations is the proprietary GrowHub Platform, a revolutionary traceability blockchain technology solution. We believe as of the date of this prospectus, we are among the few entities in Asia Pacific that operates a public blockchain system whereby all data can be transmitted directly to the cloud and shown on public blockchain records, and not subject to possible tampering and alteration of data. The GrowHub Platform stands as the cornerstone of our Company’s operations, serving as our main business and flagship offering.

Hosted on the robust Polygon network (i.e. a third-party blockchain platform which aims to create a multi-chain blockchain system compatible with Ethereum, a decentralized blockchain with smart contract functionality), the GrowHub Platform represents a paradigm shift in the way food products are traced from origin to consumer. We utilize the Polygon network to publish the public tracking data of our traceability system. This ensures that all information is immutable and publicly auditable. Polygon’s scalable infrastructure enables us to handle large volumes of data transactions efficiently and cost-effectively. We also utilize Polygon’s immutability and public auditability features, which allows us to maintain the integrity and transparency of our supply chain data. For every checkpoint, once recorded on the blockchain, it becomes permanent and tamper-proof. This ensures that consumers and other stakeholders can trust the data they access. We make use of smart contract tailored to our traceability needs. These smart contracts govern how data is collected, validated, and recorded on the blockchain. They also handle the interactions between our platform and the Polygon network.

Unlike traditional systems, the GrowHub Platform harnesses the power of public blockchain technology, with an aim to ensure data immutability and transparency. Every aspect of the supply chain is meticulously recorded as an immutable checkpoint, each capturing critical information such as ingredient sourcing, manufacturing processes, and distribution channels. Through a seamless web application and QR code integration, consumers gain access to comprehensive product provenance, empowering them to make informed purchasing decisions with confidence. The GrowHub Platform offers three key solutions: the traceability solution that provides comprehensive tracking of products throughout the supply chain; the anti-counterfeit solution that equips organizations with tools to combat counterfeiting; and the carbon management solution that empowers companies to track and manage carbon emissions, contributing to environmental sustainability.

In addition to its groundbreaking technology platform, the Company facilitates product trading for businesses within its expansive network. Acting as a conduit between suppliers and retailers, we facilitate seamless placement of products in both traditional retail outlets and burgeoning online channels. Through strategic partnerships and innovative distribution strategies, the Company maximizes revenue generation opportunities while providing unparalleled market access for its partners. From retail placements to bulk wholesale transactions, our products trading division is a catalyst for market expansion and revenue growth, driving value for stakeholders across the supply chain.

Anticipated for launch by the first half of 2025, the GrowHub Innovation Centre represents the culmination of the Company’s commitment to fostering collaboration with the Australian government. Strategically located within the esteemed Food Innovation Precinct in Western Australia, the GrowHub Innovation Centre serves as a co-working office space and digital hub, providing infrastructure for innovation and collaboration among research entities, government agencies, academic institutions, and private organizations to converge and drive meaningful technological advancements. Through a combination of strategic partnerships, the Innovation Centre facilitates collaborative projects with intellectual property value and commercialization potential. Leveraging its facilities and expansive network, the Company is poised to extract significant value from these initiatives, whether through technology integration or royalties from commercialized ventures. The GrowHub Innovation Centre is expected to have a capacity to accommodate up to 91 individuals.

We generated revenues from two major business segments: hosting of the GrowHub Platform and product trading facilitation.

The GrowHub Platform is the Company’s proprietary traceability blockchain technology platform that allows full traceability of food products from origins to consumers. Equipped with complete end-to-end Web3 enabled technology, the GrowHub Platform is a public blockchain system hosted on Polygon. Information cannot be altered once it enters the blockchain and can be viewed by the public. The public blockchain provides an open and verifiable system for consumers who desires to check on the claims of the manufacturer. A checkpoint is created on the GrowHub Platform when the data is collected from a specific point in the supply chain, including but not limited to harvesting, processing, or distribution. This data can include information on the product’s condition, location, temperature, and other relevant metrics. A checkpoint can be defined as use of ingredients in production, storage conditions, manufacturing process, or an exchange of hands in the distribution channels. Every checkpoint can be supported by uploads of certificates, reports, data upload by third party applications, and devices. Once the data is uploaded and collected, the data goes through a validation process to ensure accuracy and completeness. After which, the data is formatted to align with our blockchain protocol requirements. After the validation and formatting process, every checkpoint can be uploaded onto the blockchain. Each new block, containing one or more checkpoints, is verified by the decentralized network of nodes. This ensures the integrity and immutability of the data. Once verified, the block is added to the blockchain, making the checkpoint data tamper-proof and transparent.

The GrowHub Platform is designed to be comprehensive in its data capture, aiming to minimize data gaps by integrating seamlessly with a wide range of third-party applications and devices. However, the comprehensiveness, accuracy and completeness of data capture in each checkpoint can be influenced by the quality and consistency of data inputs from these third party sources. To mitigate this problem related to quality and/or consistency of data inputs, we have implemented data validation protocols to ensure data integrity, accuracy and completeness.

Traceability solution. Our traceability solution enables organizations to track products at every stage of the supply chain, from raw materials to the final product, ensuring integrity and authenticity of products. Our traceability solution comes with an aesthetically pleasing web app for consumers when they scan and view traceability information. The GrowHub Platform’s traceability solution provides a QR code and a customizable web app that gives products a beautifully-designed web page with detailed information, including product provenance. The web page can be customized to detect the language setting of the user’s device or automatically translate the descriptions to the preferred language based on the user’s location.. This not only makes it easier for customers to access information about the product, but also helps to build trust and confidence in the product’s quality and authenticity. Food suppliers can utilize the GrowHub Platform’s traceability solution to localize their product information for different regions without changing much of the product packaging. This enables food suppliers to display product information in different regions and languages, hence reaching a wider audience. Moreover, by providing access to detailed traceability information, suppliers can enhance consumer trust and loyalty. Consumers increasingly seek information about the products they purchase, including where they come from and how they are produced. By offering transparency and traceability, food suppliers can meet these demands and differentiate themselves in the market.

Anti-counterfeit solution. Our anti-counterfeit solution operates on two fronts. First, it is a straightforward tool to monitor product movements along the supply chain. We provide producers and manufacturers with anti-counterfeiting labels. These unique labels are embedded with Near Field Communication chips (i.e. a set of communication protocols that enables communication between two electronic devices over a distance of four centimeters or less) to be on the product packaging, that are scanned to have its geolocation logged into our system when it moves from point-to-point along the supply chain. This allows for real-time tracking and authentication at various stages of the supply chain. Further, we are also able to monitor products which do not use our anti-counterfeiting authentication labelling technology by leveraging third-party integrations, IoT devices, blockchain-based logging, and collaboration with supply chain partners. The movement and status update of each product is documented and immutable as it is stored on the blockchain. These data sets provide the geolocations of the product, and when read collectively with other internal data points, aids in the calculation for the probability of fraud. The system will be able to capture information from production, packaging, distribution, and retail, enabling producers to monitor the entire supply chain, ensuring integrity and authenticity of products, and in turn, proving its authenticity to the end consumers via the QR code on the product by providing the very same information when scanned. A counterfeit product will not be able to provide the same evidence of information indicating movement along the supply chain.

Secondly, GrowHub also aggregates end consumers’ interaction with each products’ QR code to warn about counterfeit products in the market and detect potential fraudulent distributions. Each product is assigned a unique identifier authentication key paired with the products’ QR code, which varies with each product, allowing end consumers to verify the authenticity of the product by scanning the QR code. Consumers can now access detailed information about the product through the supply chain, particularly geolocation, which is a prominent clue to self-detect fraud. More importantly, consumers are warned if the unique identifier authentication key has been tampered with or used before. The unique identifier authentication keys are normally only obtained after purchase of the products and to be keyed in only once (single-time use). A used unique identifier authentication key would mean the paired product has been tampered with and a high possibility that it is a counterfeit. GrowHub provides the producers with analytics for product digital engagement in efforts to detect fraud. This feature allows producers to track and analyze product engagement, such as scan counts, geolocation of scans and reports from tampering of authentication keys, which can help them identify potential fraud or counterfeit along the supply chain.

Carbon management solution. Our carbon management solution provides food suppliers and consumers with a comprehensive solution to monitor, track, and manage their carbon emissions effectively. The carbon management solution utilizes blockchain technology to provide transparent and immutable records of carbon emissions and removals. The solution enables food suppliers to track their carbon emissions across various aspects of their operations, including manufacturing processes, transportation logistics, and energy consumption. Our solution is powered by a robust framework of client-provided data, IoT device integration, and blockchain-based traceability. First, we collect and log data provided by our clients. Our Web3 integration (as further discussed below) allows clients to connect carbon tracking IoT devices directly into our GrowHub Platform. These IoT devices continuously monitor and record carbon emissions at different points in the supply chain, which the data will be logged and consolidated into the GrowHub Platform for our clients to access. Further, the Web3 integration ensures that all data is immutable and tamper-proof to protect its accuracy and trustworthiness. Finally, to ensure the accuracy and credibility of the clients’ data, we collaborate with reputable audit firms in order to independently audit and verify the data. By capturing data at every stage of the supply chain, food suppliers gain insights into their carbon footprint and identify opportunities for emission reduction and mitigation. By leveraging data-driven decision-making, food suppliers can achieve significant cost savings, enhance their corporate social responsibility (“CSR”) initiatives, and strengthen their competitive advantage in a rapidly evolving market. Food suppliers can also enhance their brand reputation, attract environmentally-conscious consumers, and strengthen stakeholder relationships by transparently tracking and managing their carbon emissions.

In addition to the three practical solutions, the GrowHub Platform offers food suppliers a powerful marketing platform to showcase their products and connect with consumers on a deeper level. The GrowHub Platform allows food suppliers to upload a variety of multimedia content, including images, videos, and interactive media, to enrich their product listings. They can leverage the platform to tell their brand stories and communicate their values, mission, and commitment to quality and sustainability. The GrowHub Platform also enables food suppliers to differentiate their products from competitors by highlighting unique selling points, such as organic certifications, fair trade practices, or artisanal craftsmanship. Suppliers can use multimedia content to showcase the distinctiveness of their products and communicate the benefits of choosing their brand over others. Through multimedia content and customizable product descriptions, suppliers can engage consumers on an emotional level, forging meaningful connections and building brand loyalty over time.

The GrowHub Platform operates as a traceability solution powered by public blockchain technology, offering a decentralized and transparent approach to food traceability and supply chain management. Here is how the platform works and the key features that distinguish it:

Public Blockchain Technology. Unlike traditional traceability solutions that rely on private or centralized databases, the GrowHub Platform leverages public blockchain technology. This means that transaction data is recorded on a distributed ledger that is accessible to all participants in the network. By utilizing a public blockchain, the platform ensures transparency, immutability, and accountability, as transactions cannot be altered or tampered with once they are recorded.

Decentralized Nature. The GrowHub Platform operates on a decentralized network of nodes, eliminating the need for a central authority to manage and validate transactions. This decentralized approach enhances security, resilience, and trust in the system, as there is no single point of failure or control. Participants in the network, including food suppliers, distributors, retailers, and consumers, can interact directly with each other without intermediaries, streamlining the exchange of information and goods.

Web3 Integration. The GrowHub Platform embraces the principles of Web3, the next generation of the internet that prioritizes decentralization, privacy, and user control. Through Web3 integration, the platform enables secure and seamless interactions between users and applications, empowering individuals to own and control their data. This shift towards user-centricity enhances privacy, data sovereignty, and trust in the platform, fostering a more equitable and democratic digital ecosystem.

Cloud-based Data Storage. The GrowHub Platform utilizes cloud-based data storage solutions to store and manage traceability data securely and efficiently. By leveraging cloud infrastructure, the platform can scale dynamically to accommodate growing volumes of data and support real-time data analytics and insights. Additionally, cloud-based storage offers redundancy, disaster recovery, and accessibility, ensuring that data is available whenever and wherever it is needed.

Reliability and Scalability. The GrowHub Platform is designed for reliability and scalability, capable of handling large volumes of transactions and data with minimal downtime or disruption. Through the use of distributed consensus mechanisms, such as proof-of-work or proof-of-stake, the platform ensures the integrity and consistency of the blockchain network, even in the face of network congestion or attacks. This reliability and scalability are essential for supporting mission-critical applications, such as food traceability, where data accuracy and availability are paramount.

The Company generates revenue from the GrowHub Platform through a diversified range of monetization strategies, capitalizing on its innovative features and value-added services. Revenue has been generated from three major aspects of the platform, and we expect to add a fourth stream of revenue in the first half of 2025.

The Company’s product trading facilitation offering operates on a dynamic business model that revolves around facilitating the placement of products in retail stores and online channels, as well as facilitating bulk wholesale trade. Under this model, the Company acts as an intermediary between product suppliers and retail outlets, leveraging its network and industry expertise to facilitate the placement of products in retail stores. This may involve negotiating agreements with retailers, coordinating product deliveries, and ensuring compliance with merchandising standards and regulatory requirements. By providing placement services, the Company helps suppliers expand their market reach and access new sales channels, while also generating revenue through service fees or commissions based on the volume or value of products sold. The Company also facilitates bulk wholesale trade by connecting product suppliers with wholesale buyers, distributors, and trading partners. This may involve negotiating bulk purchase agreements, and coordinating logistics and fulfillment. By facilitating bulk wholesale trade, the Company enables suppliers to capitalize on economies of scale, streamline distribution processes, and maximize revenue potential through large-volume transactions.

The Company has collaborated with several renowned department stores in Singapore, including Metro, TANGS, BHG, and iShopChangi, which enabled us to place our clients’ products in prime retail locations, enhancing visibility and sales potential. For example, Metro has carried nearly 400 different products through The GrowHub, encompassing a diverse range of items such as food, cosmetics, daily care, and essential products; and BHG has exclusively committed its entire wine and spirits section to us. As at June 30, 2024, 26 of these 400 different products are traceable on the GrowHub Platform. We regularly and continuously add new products to our GrowHub Platform. Currently, we are in the process of obtaining another 207 different products to be traceable on the GrowHub Platform. To further promote our technology and services, we will be establishing exhibition booths in these department stores. These booths will showcase the GrowHub Platform’s technology for tracking and traceability, aiming to increase consumer awareness and demonstrate the benefits of our authentication capabilities. This initiative is designed not only to boost consumer confidence but also to attract more businesses to integrate with the GrowHub Platform.

The network cultivated through the GrowHub Platform plays a pivotal role in bolstering the product trading facilitation segment. This expansive network encompasses a diverse array of food suppliers, distributors, retailers, and other industry stakeholders, providing a rich ecosystem ripe with opportunities for trade and collaboration. Leveraging this network, the Company can efficiently source products and connect them with potential buyers, capitalizing on existing relationships and connections to drive business growth. Moreover, the GrowHub Platform’s network yields invaluable market insights and intelligence that inform strategic decision-making within the product trading segment. By analyzing transaction data, consumer behavior patterns, and market trends inherent to the platform, the Company, with its AI technology, gains a nuanced understanding of market dynamics, enabling it to better anticipate demand fluctuations, analyze fraud, enhance the effectiveness of the its data analytics, and optimize product placement strategies for maximum impact.

Crucially, the platform’s reputation for transparency, integrity, and reliability enhances trust and credibility among network participants. Suppliers and buyers alike place confidence in the platform’s commitment to traceability, sustainability, and ethical business practices, making it a trusted conduit for trade transactions. This trust factor fosters smoother, more efficient trading processes, reducing friction and uncertainty for all parties involved.

The GrowHub Innovation Centre is a pivotal initiative located within the Food Innovation Precinct Western Australia (“FIPWA”). FIPWA, owned by the Shire of Murray in Western Australia, is backed by a AUD$45.2 million Western Australia State Government investment with a AUD$21.75 million contribution from the Australian Government’s Regional Growth Fund for the precinct’s construction. Located within the Peel Business Park in Stake Hill, Western Australia and covering over 42,000 hectares (103,780 acres), FIPWA aims to foster cutting-edge solutions that benefit both local producers and international markets.

The GrowHub Innovation Centre is one of the key strategic players within the FIPWA and serves as a hub for innovation, research, and collaboration, focusing on agri-food technology. GrowHub Innovations Australia has signed a lease agreement with the Shire of Murray in Western Australia to manage the GrowHub Innovation Centre. Such lease is for an initial term of five years, with an option to extend for another five years. GrowHub Innovations Australia’s obligations, including payment obligations, under the lease are guaranteed by GrowHub Innovations Singapore.

We utilize the data centre to store, process, and analyze information that helps enhance our AI abilities to offer clients better analytics and predictions. The purpose of the GrowHub Innovation Centre is to attract leading and key strategic Web3 researchers, companies, and talents to develop applications and technologies to plug-and-play into our technology platform. We have signed MOUs with leading universities, accelerators, and government to collaborate research, development and application at the GrowHub Innovation Centre. We expect that the GrowHub Innovation Centre will begin to generate revenues by the end of the second quarter of 2025; no revenues have been generated as of the date of this prospectus. When the GrowHub Innovation Centre is fully operational, we expect it will house the following revenue-generating elements and catalysts:

Accelerator Program. The GrowHub Accelerator Program will support global start-ups addressing real-world challenges. It will provide access to the GrowHub Platform, a network of producers, distribution channels across the Asia Pacific, and capital for commercial scaling. This benefits both GrowHub’s customer base and product range.

Café. The café will generate revenue by serving the entrepreneurs of the GrowHub Innovation Centre.

Co-Working Office Space. Another source of revenue will be rental income from the co-working spaces within the GrowHub Innovation Centre.

Digital Hub. The data center at the heart of the GrowHub Innovation Centre will power the GrowHub Platform and provide, at a reasonable fee, secure data storage for companies.

With a strong focus on the Asia Pacific (“APAC”) region, we have strategically partnered with governmental organizations to drive innovation, enhance agricultural practices, and foster cross-industry collaboration. We recognize the pivotal role that collaboration with governmental bodies plays in advancing our mission. Our strategic partnerships span across Bhutan, Japan, Australia, and potentially Vietnam and Indonesia.

Bhutan. In November 2023, GrowHub Innovations Singapore entered into a memorandum of understanding with an investment company owned by the Bhutanese government. Under this agreement, GrowHub Innovations Singapore will contribute its proprietary blockchain platform to help the Bhutanese government authenticate the origin and quality of herbs and plants from farm to consumer. The primary objective of this partnership is to enhance sustainable cultivation practices and customize systems suitable for Bhutan’s unique agricultural landscape. The GrowHub Innovation Centre will also act as the technology transfer office for research and technology innovations. Once the pilot phase is completed, we will enter into a joint venture agreement with the Bhutan government to implement a certification centre to trace and test all agricultural products form Bhutan. We are also in discussion with the Bhutan government for potential collaboration on data centers, data processing, and AI development.

Japan. In September 2023, GrowHub Innovations Singapore established a strategic partnership with Kyoto Sangyo University (“KSU”) in Japan. This collaboration aims to foster technological innovation and create opportunities for collaboration between academia and industry. Under this dynamic partnership, the following collaborative initiatives will take place:

Australia. In February 2023, GrowHub Innovations Australia signed a lease agreement with the Shire of Murray in Western Australia. Such lease is for an initial term of five years, with an option to extend for another five years. GrowHub Innovations Australia’s obligations, including payment obligations, under the lease are guaranteed by GrowHub Innovations Singapore. See “—The GrowHub Innovation Centre.”

Vietnam. In July 2024, GrowHub Innovations Singapore entered into a memorandum of understanding with two Vietnamese private entities pursuant to which, among other things, we will work together to strengthen the reputation and quality of local Vietnamese premium produces by introducing food traceability systems, as well as to adopt robust blockchain based tracking system to ensure authenticity of imported food products and luxury goods in Vietnam.

Indonesia. We are currently in discussions with relevant stakeholders in Indonesia to explore potential partnerships. We intend to provide our traceability technology for verification of environmentally sourced seafood intended for export. We are also in discussion with government-related ministries and companies to offer our powerful data analytics tools.

The GrowHub Platform is not merely a traceability tool; it’s a comprehensive one-stop solution that addresses the entire supply chain, which sets us apart from traditional traceability systems that focus solely on tracking product movement. Our platform tracks products from their origin to the end consumer, ensuring transparency at every step. Whether it is verifying the source of organic produce or confirming the authenticity of goods, our system provides real-time data. Beyond traceability, we verify the integrity of each transaction. blockchain technology ensures immutability, making tampering virtually impossible. This trust layer benefits consumers, businesses, and regulatory bodies alike. Moreover, businesses can leverage our system to communicate their sustainability efforts, ethical practices, and product quality. Consumers appreciate brands that are transparent and socially responsible. Our platform also collects vast amounts of data. By analyzing trends, supply chain inefficiencies, and consumer preferences, businesses can make informed decisions. From optimizing logistics to predicting demand, data-driven insights drive growth.

Our relationships with governments extend beyond formal agreements. Collaborating with governments such as the Bhutan and Australia governments provide us with political goodwill, which enhances our reputation. When government agencies endorse our platform, businesses take notice. Many of our clients come through these referrals. Governments trust us, and businesses follow suit. Our partnerships with governmental organizations in APAC also position us as regional players. We understand local nuances, cultural sensitivities, and regulatory landscapes. This insight is invaluable when implementing solutions on a national scale.

Our software-as-a-service model for the GrowHub Platform is affordable and accessible. By offering subscription-based access, we democratize traceability. Small businesses, startups, and even large enterprises can adopt our platform without significant upfront costs. Businesses can onboard swiftly. No complex installations or customizations—just sign up, log in, and start using the GrowHub Platform. As businesses grow, our SaaS model scales seamlessly. Whether it is adding new users, expanding to new markets, or integrating with other systems, we accommodate growth. Our GrowHub Platform is designed for global users. It caters to diverse supply chains. Whether it is tracking coffee beans from Colombia or high-tech components from Japan, our system adapts. While scalable, we also localize. Language preferences, regulatory compliance, and regional variations are built into our platform. As businesses expand into new markets, they need traceability solutions that work seamlessly. Our global reach ensures continuity.

We believe we are early adopters and trailblazers of Web3 in APAC. Our Web3-enabled GrowHub Platform leverages blockchain for data security. Each transaction is cryptographically linked, ensuring transparency and trust. Businesses can track products in real time. Being one of the firsts in the APAC region positions us as thought leaders. We set standards, influence regulations, and inspire others to embrace traceability.

Our senior management team are experienced and seasoned professionals. Years of collaboration with government officials and politicians give us an edge. We understand the delicate balance between business interests and public policy. Political dynamics, regulatory frameworks, and cultural nuances—we navigate complexity meticulously. Our team ensures smooth implementations, even in complex environments.

Our strategic approach to expansion has consistently been top-down, focusing on collaboration with government entities and universities and building strong relationships within each country’s ecosystem. To date, we have successfully developed robust business ties in several key markets, including Australia, Bhutan, Japan, Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Malaysia. We believe we are currently one of the leading Web3-enabled traceability platforms in APAC. Asia Pacific is a diverse region, with over 3,000 languages spoken and a rich cultural tapestry. Our headquarters being based in Asia provides us with a unique advantage. Our senior management and board directors hail from diverse Asia Pacific backgrounds, granting us an intimate understanding of local business practices and cultural nuances. This deep-rooted knowledge allows us to navigate natural barriers of entry, including language, culture, and behavioral practices. Over the next two years, our primary focus will be on expanding within APAC. However, we recognize that opportunities may arise beyond our current scope. If compelling partnerships with governments outside of Asia Pacific emerge, we will actively consider collaboration.

We recognize that data is a strategic asset. We remain committed to staying at the forefront of technological advancements. Our ongoing investment in artificial intelligence (“AI”) ensures that we continue to innovate and enhance our platform. Furthermore, investment in data analytics ensures that we remain agile, customer-centric, and competitive in an ever-evolving market. Armed with AI-driven analytics, we can tailor our offerings to meet specific customer needs. For instance, by analyzing purchase history and preferences, we can recommend relevant products or services to individual consumers. AI algorithms optimize pricing strategies, balancing revenue goals and market competitiveness.

Our success in Australia, Japan, Malaysia, Bhutan, and other markets has positioned us as a trusted partner. To capitalize on this momentum, we will intensify our efforts in these regions. Our goal is to capture additional market share by providing tailored solutions and expanding our service offerings. The food and local produce industry in Southeast Asia presents immense growth potential. As economies develop and consumer demand rises, there is a pressing need for transparent supply chains. Our traceability platform aligns perfectly with this demand. By addressing food safety, sustainability, and authenticity, we can contribute significantly to the growth of businesses in this region.

Our commitment to innovation extends beyond our core platform. The GrowHub Innovation Centre, based in Australia, serves as a hub for cutting-edge ideas and collaborations. Through this center, we foster partnerships with universities’ innovation centers, research institutions, and startups. Setting up a corporate venture capital arm is a strategic move. We aim to identify projects, technologies, and companies that align with our business objectives. By investing strategically, we can accelerate innovation, expand our ecosystem, and drive mutual growth.

We target a diverse range of customers primarily composed of governmental organizations, and product retails. Company is also expanding its range of customers to high-end products retailers. As of December 31, 2023, we had a customer base of approximately 18 entities. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, our top five customers accounted for approximately 71.6% and 80.9% of our total revenue, respectively, and our largest customers accounted for approximately 37.5% and 26.1% of our revenue, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, our top five customers accounted for approximately 89.7% and 91.5%, respectively, of our total revenue; and our largest customers accounted for approximately 58.6% and 66.4%, respectively, of our total revenue. The largest customer for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the largest customer for the year December 31, 2023 were two different customers. We consider that our business and profitability are not substantially dependent on any of these two largest customers, given that (i) the Company has not signed any long term contract with these customers, (ii) the nature of the Company’s business is project-based, therefore it would not rely on any single customer for recurring revenue in the long run, and (iii) the loss of any one customer will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s profitability in the long run because of the Company’s ability to attract new customers and to secure new projects from its existing customers, which flexibility is demonstrated by the fact that the Company did not generate any of its revenue for 2023 from the largest customer of 2022.

Our suppliers are primarily blockchain infrastructure providers and cloud computing platforms. We host our public blockchain GrowHub Platform on Polygon and store all data relating to traceability on Amazon Web Services. We intend to store our data and perform our AI processing at our data center located in FIPWA. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, our five largest suppliers represented approximately 89.3% and 46.9%, respectively, of our total purchase expenditures. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our five largest suppliers represented approximately 3% and 2%, respectively, of our total purchase expenditures and no single supplier accounted for more than 5% of our total purchase for both fiscal years.

Our initial sales approach has been organic and relationship-driven. Our senior management, with their extensive industry expertise, actively engages with potential clients. By leveraging their networks and personal connections, we have successfully acquired clients through referrals from governmental organizations with whom we collaborate. These referrals stem from our reputation for delivering value, reliability, and innovative solutions. Going forward, we intend to establish a dedicated sales and marketing team focused on driving growth.

We have an in-house research and development team, led by our Chief Technology Officer, responsible for the development and enhancement of our technology platform. We partner with universities (e.g., Kyoto Sangyo University), and other technology firms for AI related development or specific hardware integration. Most of our research and development are done in-house, and if there are collaborations, we typically retain the intellectual property rights. Our proprietary technology platform is developed in-house. While we may outsource certain development work from time to time, the assembly of codes is done internally.

We consider other traceability platforms our competitors. However, most of these competitors focus on only a niche spectrum and rely on private blockchains. To the best of our knowledge, the GrowHub Platform is the only platform that does end-to-end traceability, provides data, and is a public blockchain. We also believe that within APAC, our GrowHub Platform faces little competition.

As of the date of this prospectus, we maintained insurances to safeguard against potential risks and liabilities associated with our traceability platform and related business. Such insurance coverage includes both public liability insurance and product liability insurance. Public liability insurance typically protects us against claims arising from third-party bodily injury or property damage. It covers incidents that occur on our premises or during our operations. Product liability insurance provides coverage in case our business is linked to any harm, injury, or financial loss suffered by users of our GrowHub Platform or other parties due to system errors, data inaccuracies, or other related issues.

We have a registered domain, https://thegrowhub.co/. The information contained on this website is not a part of this prospectus.

Since our inception, there have not, to our knowledge, been any infringements of intellectual property rights owned by the Company, including but not limited to any claims and threatened claims or proceedings initiated by us; and we have not been subject to any third party claims relating to intellectual property made against us.

As of the date of this prospectus, we have not entered into any licensing agreements relating to our intellectual property with any third parties; and except for off the shelf software, we do not license intellectual property from any third party.

As of September 30, 2024, we had a workforce of 12 employees who are located in Singapore, Malaysia, and Japan. The following table sets forth the number of our employees as of September 30, 2024 by function:

Note: Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are also responsible for overseeing the finance of our Group.

Our success depends, in part, on our ability to attract, retain and motivate qualified employees that share our values. We place great emphasis on our corporate culture to ensure that we maintain consistently high standards where we operate. We believe that we maintain a good working relationship with our employees, and we have not experienced any significant labor disputes.

We enter into standard labor contracts and confidentiality agreements with our employees.

Our principal place of business is located at 60 Paya Lebar Road, #12-37 Paya Lebar Square, Singapore 409051. Our Singapore office is leased under one lease which will expire on March 31, 2026 and includes an option to extend the lease for an additional two-year term. We have also leased the GrowHub Innovation Centre in Australia which will expire on February 12, 2028, and includes an option to extend the lease for an additional five-year term. We believe that our facilities are adequate to meet our needs for the immediate future, and that, should it be needed, suitable additional space will be available on commercially reasonable terms to accommodate any expansion of our operations.

We may from time to time be subject to various legal or administrative claims and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. The Company is and has not been a party to any litigation, arbitration or administrative proceedings that we believe would, individually or taken as a whole, have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations, and, insofar as we are aware, no such litigation, arbitration or administrative proceedings are pending, threatened, or contemplated.

We are subject to all relevant laws and regulations of Singapore and may be affected by policies which may be introduced by their respective governments from time to time. We have identified the main laws and regulations (apart from those pertaining to general business requirements) that materially affect our operations, including the licenses, permits and approvals typically required for the conduct of our business, and the relevant regulatory bodies, below.

As of the date of this prospectus, our Directors believe that we are not in breach of any laws or regulations applicable to our business operations that would materially affect our business operations, and our Group is in compliance with all the applicable laws and regulations that are material to our business operations. The Group may be subject to certain fines/penalties arising from its ordinary course of business from time to time.

The import of processed food products and food appliances is regulated by the Singapore Food Agency (“SFA”). Processed food products refer to all food products and supplements of food nature except meat products and fish products, fresh fruits and fresh vegetables. Any person who imports processed food and food appliances is required to register with the SFA to obtain a registration number. In addition, a registered person must obtain a customs permit before importing any processed food products or food appliances into Singapore for sale. For food products that have been identified through trend studies to be of high potential health risk or have a history of poor food safety record, the importer is required to submit documents certifying the safety of the products together with the import permit application.

The Wholesome Meat and Fish Act 1999 of Singapore (“WMFA”) requires any person who imports, exports or tranships any meat product or fish product into Singapore to apply for a licence from the Director-General, Agri-food and Veterinary Services. In addition, any licensee who imports any meat products or fish products for sale, supply or distribution in Singapore must obtain a customs permit from the Director-General for each consignment of meat products or fish products to be imported and the import of each consignment must be carried out in accordance with the conditions of the permit. Licensees must also comply with additional requirements set out in the relevant subsidiary legislation of the WMFA.

The Liquor Control (Supply and Consumption) Act 2015 of Singapore (“LCA”) requires any person who supplies any liquor in Singapore to obtain a liquor licence (“Liquor Licence”). The Liquor Control (Supply and Consumption) (Liquor Licensing) Regulations 2015 regulates, amongst others, the supply of liquor to persons younger than 18 years, through any one or more of the following means: (a) online (whether through an electronic commerce platform or otherwise); or (b) a telecommunication service. A licensee must not supply any liquor to an individual who is younger than 18 years online or through a telecommunication service. Further, a licensee must warn the individual that it is an offence for the individual to buy liquor if the individual is younger than 18 years and inform the individual of the penalty for the offence.

Cosmetic products supplied in Singapore must comply with the requirements under the Health Products Act (“HPA”) and the Health Products (Cosmetic Products – ASEAN Cosmetic Directive) Regulations 2007. No licence is required for the manufacture, importation or wholesale supply of cosmetic products in Singapore. However, prior notification to the Health Sciences Authority of Singapore (“HSA”) in the prescribed form is required before a cosmetic product may be supplied in Singapore, except in limited circumstances, for instance, where the product is supplied solely as a sample in connection with a promotional activity or for testing or trial use in connection with the research and development of the product. The HPA imposes various duties on persons placing cosmetic products on the market.

Regulations on Anti-Money Laundering and Prevention of Terrorism Financing

The primary anti-money laundering legislation in Singapore is the Corruption, Drug Trafficking and Other Serious Crimes (Confiscation of Benefits) Act 1992 of Singapore (“CDSA”) provides for the confiscation of benefits derived from, and to combat, corruption, drug dealing and other serious crimes. Generally, the CDSA criminalizes the concealment or transfer of the benefits of criminal conduct as well as the knowing assistance of the concealment, transfer or retention of such benefits.

The Terrorism (Suppression of Financing) Act 2002 of Singapore (“TSOFA”) is the primary legislation for the combating of terrorism financing. It was enacted to give effect to the International Convention for the Suppression of the Financing of Terrorism. Besides criminalizing the laundering of proceeds derived from drug dealing and other serious crimes and terrorism financing, the CDSA and the TSOFA also require suspicious transaction reports to be lodged with the Suspicious Transaction Reporting Office. If any person fails to lodge the requisite reports under the CDSA and the TSOFA, it may be subject to criminal liability.

As of the date of this prospectus, our Non-Executive Director nominee, Mr. Chong Nien Lin, Danny, is the brother-in-law of our Chief Operating Officer, Mr. Ngo Woon Kiat Alec. Save except as disclosed, there are no family relationships among our Directors and executive officers .

After the consummation of this Offering, we will qualify as a “foreign private issuer” under the SEC rules and Nasdaq rules. As a foreign private issuer, we will be exempt from the rules under the Exchange Act related to the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and our officers, directors, and principal shareholders will be exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Also, we are not required to comply with Regulation FD, which restricts the selective disclosure of material information. However, we will file with the SEC, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, or such applicable time as required by the SEC, an annual report on Form 20-F containing financial statements audited by an independent registered public accounting firm, and we will submit to the SEC from time to time, on Form 6-K, reports of information that would likely be material to an investment decision in our Class A Ordinary Shares.

Furthermore, Nasdaq Rule 5615(a)(3) provides that a foreign private issuer, such as us, may rely on our home country corporate governance practices in lieu of certain of the rules in the Nasdaq Rule 5600 Series and Rule 5250(d), except that we must comply with Nasdaq’s Notification of Noncompliance requirement (Rule 5625), the Voting Rights requirement (Rule 5640), and that we have an audit committee that satisfies Rule 5605(c)(3), including having committee members that meet the independence requirements of Rule 5605(c)(2)(A)(ii). The exemptions are subject to our disclosure of which requirements we are not following and the equivalent Cayman Islands requirements. Below are some of the exemptions afforded to foreign private issuers under the Nasdaq rules:

We intend to comply with all of the rules generally applicable to U.S. domestic companies listed on the Nasdaq. We may in the future decide to use the foreign private issuer exemption with respect to some or all of the other Nasdaq corporate governance rules. We also intend to comply with Cayman Islands corporate governance requirements under the Companies Act applicable to us at the same time. If we rely on our home country corporate governance practices in lieu of certain of the rules of Nasdaq, our shareholders may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq. We may utilize these exemptions for as long as we continue to qualify as a foreign private issuer.

In connection with this Offering, we have adopted a code of business conduct and ethics, which is applicable to all of our directors, executive officers and employees and is publicly available.

Our board of directors will consist of seven directors upon the SEC’s declaration of effectiveness of our registration statement on Form F-1, of which this prospectus is a part. A director who is, directly or indirectly, interested in a contract or transaction or proposed contract or transaction with our Company shall declare the nature of his or her interest at a meeting of our directors. A director may not vote in respect of any contract or transaction or proposed contract or transaction notwithstanding that he or she may be interested therein but he or she may be counted in the quorum at any meeting of our directors at which any such contract or transaction or proposed contract or transaction is considered. Our directors may exercise all the powers of our Company to issue debentures, debenture stock, bonds, and other securities, whether outright or as collateral security for any debt, liability or obligation of our Company or of any third party. None of our non-executive directors have a service contract with us that provides for benefits upon termination of service.

We recognize the importance and benefit of having a board of directors composed of highly talented and experienced individuals having regard to the need to foster and promote diversity among board members with respect to attributes such as gender, ethnicity and other factors. In support of this goal, we will consider criteria that promote diversity, including with regard to gender, ethnicity, and other dimensions; and consider the level of representation of women on our board of directors along with other markers of diversity.

Under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is considered a “controlled company.” Following the completion of this Offering, we will be a “controlled company” as defined under the Nasdaq rules. For so long as we remain a “controlled company,” we are permitted to elect not to comply with certain Nasdaq corporate governance rules, including the requirement that a majority of our board of directors consist of “independent directors,” as defined under the Nasdaq rules, and the requirement that our compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees consist entirely of independent directors.

We will establish three committees under the board of directors immediately upon the effectiveness of our registration statement on Form F-1, of which this prospectus is a part: an audit committee, a compensation committee, and a nominating and corporate governance committee. We expect to adopt a charter for each of the three committees. Each committee’s members and functions are described below.

Audit Committee. Our audit committee will consist of Mr. Raymond Tan, Mr. Lim Wei Siong and Mr. Huang Junli Christopher. Mr. Raymond Tan will be the chairperson of our audit committee. We have determined that each of our audit committee members satisfies the “independence” requirements of Rule 5605(c)(2) of the Nasdaq rules and meets the independence standards under Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. We have determined that Mr. Raymond Tan qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of the SEC rules and possesses financial sophistication within the meaning of the Nasdaq rules. The audit committee will oversee our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of the financial statements of our Company. The audit committee will be responsible for, among other things:

Compensation Committee. Our compensation committee will consist of Mr. Lim Wei Siong and Mr. Huang Junli Christopher. Mr. Huang Junli Christopher will be the chairman of our compensation committee. We have determined that each of our compensation committee members satisfies the “independence” requirements of Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq rules. The compensation committee will assist the board in reviewing and approving the compensation structure, including all forms of compensation, relating to our directors and executive officers. Our chief executive officer may not be present at any committee meeting during which his compensation is deliberated. The compensation committee will be responsible for, among other things:

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Our nominating and corporate governance committee will consist of Mr. Raymond Tan, Mr. Manasori Nakatani, and Mr. Lim Wei Siong. Mr. Lim Wei Siong will be the chairman of our nominating and corporate governance committee. We have determined that each of our nominating and corporate governance committee members satisfies the “independence” requirements of Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq rules. The nominating and corporate governance committee will assist the board of directors in selecting individuals qualified to become our directors and in determining the composition of the board and its committees. The nominating and corporate governance committee will be responsible for, among other things:

Under Cayman Islands law, our directors owe fiduciary duties to our Company. These include, among others (i) duty to act in good faith in what the director believes to be in the best interests of the company as a whole; (ii) duty to exercise powers for the purposes for which those powers were conferred and not for a collateral purpose; (iii) directors should not improperly fetter the exercise of future discretion; (iv) duty not to put themselves in a position in which there is a conflict between their duty to the company and their personal interests; and (v) duty to exercise independent judgment. In addition to the above, our directors also owe a duty to act with skill, care and diligence. This duty has been defined as a requirement to act as a reasonably diligent person having both the general knowledge, skill and experience that may reasonably be expected of a person carrying out the same functions as are carried out by that director in relation to the company and the general knowledge skill and experience which that director has. However, English and Commonwealth courts have moved towards an objective standard with regard to the required skill and care and these authorities are likely to be followed in the Cayman Islands. In fulfilling their duty of care to us, our directors must ensure compliance with our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, as amended from time to time. Our Company has the right to seek damages if a duty owed by any of our directors is breached. In limited exceptional circumstances, a shareholder may have the right to seek damages in our name if a duty owed by our directors is breached.

As set out above, our directors have a duty not to put themselves in a position of conflict and this includes a duty not to engage in self-dealing, or to otherwise benefit as a result of their position. However, in some instances what would otherwise be a breach of this duty can be forgiven and/or authorized in advance by the shareholders provided that there is full disclosure by the directors. This can be done by way of permission granted in the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association or alternatively by shareholder approval at general meetings.

Our board of directors has all the powers necessary for managing, and for directing and supervising, our business affairs. The functions and powers of our board of directors include, among others:

Our directors may be elected by a resolution of our board of directors or by an ordinary resolution of our shareholders. Our directors are not subject to a term of office and hold office until such time as they are removed from office by ordinary resolution of our shareholders, unless the director is appointed on such express terms that he or she shall automatically retire from office (unless he has sooner vacated office) at the next or a subsequent annual general meeting or upon any specified event or after any specified period). A director will cease to be a director automatically if, among other things, the director (i) becomes bankrupt or has a receiving order made against him or suspends payment or compounds with his creditors generally, (ii) dies or is found by our Company to be or becomes of unsound mind, (iii) resigns his or her office by notice in writing to our company, or (iv)is removed from office pursuant to our articles of association.

Our officers are selected by and serve at the discretion of our board of directors.

We have entered into employment agreements with each of our executive officers. Under these agreements, each of our executive officers is employed for a specific time period. We may terminate employment for cause for certain acts of executive officers, such as commission of any serious or persistent breach or non-observance of the terms and conditions of the employment, conviction of a criminal offense, willful disobedience of a lawful and reasonable order, fraud or dishonesty, receipt of bribery, or severe neglect of his or her duties. We may also terminate an executive officer’s employment without cause upon a three-month advance written notice. An executive officer may resign anytime with a three-month advance written notice.

Each executive officer has agreed to hold, during his or her employment and after the termination or expiry of his or her employment agreement, in strict confidence and not to use, except as required in the performance of his or her duties in connection with the employment or pursuant to applicable law, any of our confidential information or trade secrets, any confidential information or trade secrets of our customers or prospective customers, or the confidential or proprietary information of any third-party received by us and for which we have confidential obligations.

We will also enter into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers. Under these agreements, we will agree to indemnify our directors and executive officers against certain liabilities and expenses incurred by such person in connection with claims made by reason of their being a director or officer of our Company.

To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or executive officers has, during the past 10 years, been involved in any legal proceedings described in subparagraph (f) of Item 401 of Regulation S-K.

We seek to achieve board diversity through the consideration of a number of factors when selecting the candidates to our Board, including but not limited to gender, skills, age, professional experience, knowledge, cultural, education background, ethnicity and length of service. The ultimate decision of the appointment will be based on merit and the contribution which the selected candidates will bring to our board.

Our directors have a balanced mix of knowledge and skills. We have four independent directors with different industry backgrounds, representing a majority of the members of our board. We also achieved gender diversity by having one female director out of the total of seven directors (including independent directors). Our board is well balanced and diversified in alignment with the business development and strategy of the Company.

For so long as we qualify as a foreign private issuer, we are not required to comply with the proxy rules applicable to U.S. domestic companies, including the requirement applicable to emerging growth companies to disclose the compensation of our executive officers on an individual, rather than an aggregate, basis. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we paid an aggregate compensation of S$474,092 (approximately US$359,351) and S$413,065, respectively, to our executive officers and directors. We have not set aside any amount to provide pension, retirement or other similar benefits to our executive officers and directors. We have also not made any agreements with our directors or executive officers to provide benefits upon termination of employment.

On September 13, 2024, we adopted the Employee Incentive Plan, or the Plan, to provide a wealth creation opportunity for the employees, advisors, consultants and directors in line with value creation for the Company, drive retention of employees, advisors, consultants and directors for their continued association with the Company, and motivate employees, advisors, consultants and directors by rewarding high performance. Under the Plan, the maximum aggregate number of Shares which may be issued pursuant to all awards (including incentive share options) is 15% of the total issued Class A Ordinary Shares of our Company from time to time.

Administration of the Plan. The Plan will be administered by the Employee Incentive Plan Committee of the Company (the “Committee”) in its sole and absolute discretion with such powers and duties as are conferred on it by the Board from time to time. The Committee shall have the power, from time to time, to make and vary such regulations for the implementation and administration of this Plan as it in its absolute discretion deems fit. Any matter pertaining or pursuant to the Plan and any dispute as to the interpretation of the Plan or any rule, regulation, procedure thereunder or as to any rights under the Plan, shall be determined by the Committee and such decision shall be final and binding.

Duration of the Plan. The Plan may be terminated at any time by the Committee or, at the discretion of the Committee, by ordinary resolution of the Company, and if the Plan is so terminated, no further Options shall be offered hereunder.

Eligibility. The Committee shall in its sole and absolute discretion determine if a person is eligible to participate in the Plan, taking into consideration, among other things, role, seniority, length of service, performance history and potential contribution to the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries, and such person shall at least be a confirmed employee of the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries, or an advisor, consultant or director of the Company and/or any of its subsidiaries, and who have attained the age of 21 years (the “Participant”).

Grant of Options. An Option may be granted at any time as may be determined by the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion and may be granted subject to such conditions as may be determined by the Committee in its absolute discretion.

Subscription Price. The subscription price payable for each Option Share in respect of which an Option is exercisable (the “Subscription Price”) shall be determined by the Committee from time to time, provided that in no event shall the subscription price per Option Share be less than the par value of such Option Share.

Option period and vesting schedule. Options shall be exercisable only after vesting. Subject to the occurrence of certain events, the lapsing or the expiry of options as detailed in the Plan, the Options shall be exercisable in whole or in part, before the expiry of seven years from the date of grant of the Option, or such other date as may be determined by the Committee. In the event the following occurs: (i) an initial public offering and listing of shares of the Company or a direct listing of shares of the Company (a “Listing”); or (ii) a change of control in the shares of the Company, (in the case of a Listing, subject to the provisions of the Plan) the Options granted to such Participants shall immediately vest and the Committee will, as soon as practicable and prior to the completion of such event, procure the allotment or transfer to each Participant of the relevant number of Option Shares. In the event of a Listing, subject to applicable law, the Articles of Association of the Company and the rules of the relevant securities exchange: the Participant (a) shall not, prior to the Listing, transfer any Option Shares without the prior written consent of the Committee; (b) shall not, prior to the Listing, transfer any Option Shares without first offering such Option Shares to the Company at a price and on terms no less favorable than those offered to a third party purchaser whose identity shall be disclosed to the Committee; (c) shall agree to be bound by any applicable lock-up restrictions and/or moratorium requirements under applicable law and the rules of the relevant securities exchange, or as otherwise requested by the Committee, for the relevant lock-up period; and (d) may, following the Listing, transfer any Option Shares held by such Participant at any time, subject to compliance with the Company’s Articles of Association.

Exercise of Options. An Option may be exercised, in whole or in part, by a Participant giving notice in writing to the Company in or substantially in the form set out in the Plan, subject to modifications as the Committee may from time to time determine, accompanied by (i) a remittance for the full amount of the aggregate Subscription Price payable in respect of all the Option Shares to be subscribed for upon exercise of the Option to the bank account of the Company, and (ii) any other documentation which the Committee may require in connection with an exercise of the Option.

Transfer Restrictions. An Option shall be personal to the Participant to whom it is granted and, prior to the allotment and/or transfer to the Participant of the Option Shares to which the Option relates, shall not be transferred (other than to a Participant’s personal representative on the death of that Participant), charged, assigned, pledged or otherwise disposed of, in whole or in part, except with the prior approval of the Committee. If a Participant shall do, suffer or permit any such act or thing as a result of which he would or might be deprived of any rights under an Option without the prior approval of the Committee, that Option shall immediately lapse.

We did not, and will not, issue any other stock options or Class A Ordinary Share grants prior to this offering.

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our Shares as of the date of this prospectus by our officers, Directors, Director nominees and 5% or greater beneficial owners of our Shares. There is no other person or group of affiliated persons known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our Shares. The following table assumes that none of our officers, Directors, Director nominees or 5% or greater beneficial owners of our Shares will purchase shares in this Offering. In addition, the following table assumes that the Underwriter’s over-allotment option has not been exercised.

Holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares are entitled to one (1) vote per share and holders of our Class B Ordinary Shares are entitled to ten (10) votes per share. Our Class B Ordinary Shares are convertible at any time by the holder into Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis, while Class A Ordinary Shares are not convertible into Class B Ordinary Shares under any circumstances. Upon a transfer of any Class B Ordinary Shares by a holder thereof to any person other than certain permitted transferees or a change in the beneficial owner of such Class B Ordinary Shares, such Class B Ordinary Shares will be automatically and immediately converted into Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis. Holders of our Shares are entitled to vote on all matters submitted to a vote of our Shareholders, except as may otherwise be required by law.

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. As of the date of this prospectus, the percentage of Shares beneficially owned prior to this Offering is based on 21,549,810 Ordinary Shares, consisting of 11,116,470 Class A Ordinary Shares and 10,433,340 Class B Ordinary Shares outstanding as described in “Corporate Structure and History” section. None of the shareholders are located in the United States. We do not have any options or warrants that are outstanding. The percentage of Shares beneficially owned after this Offering is based on the number of Shares outstanding prior to this Offering plus the Class B Ordinary Shares that we are selling in this Offering, assuming the Underwriter does not exercise the over-allotment option, and the total and outstanding Class B Ordinary Shares. The person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any security of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days.

Our Board of Directors will establish an audit committee in connection with the consummation of this Offering, which will be tasked with review and approval of all related party transactions.

We are an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and our affairs are governed by our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, as amended from time to time, the Companies Act and the common law of the Cayman Islands.

The share capital of the Company consists of Ordinary Shares. As of the date hereof, our authorized share capital is US$50,000 divided into 100,000,000 Ordinary Shares of par value US$0.0005 each, comprising of (i) 75,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares of nominal or par value of US$0.0005 each, and (ii) 25,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares of nominal or par value US$0.0005 each. As of the date of this prospectus, 11,116,470 Class A Ordinary Shares and 10.433,340 Class B Ordinary Shares were issued and outstanding. We will issue [ ] Class A Ordinary Shares in this Offering.

The following are summaries of material provisions of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and the Companies Act insofar as they relate to the material terms of our Ordinary Shares.

Objects of our Company. Under our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, the objects of our Company are unrestricted and we have the full power and authority to carry out any object not prohibited by the laws of the Cayman Islands.

Ordinary Shares. Upon the completion of this Offering, our authorized share capital is US$50,000 divided into 100,000,000 Ordinary Shares of par value US$0.0005 each, comprising of (i) 75,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares of nominal or par value of US$0.0005 each, and (ii) 25,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares of nominal or par value US$0.0005 each. All of our outstanding Ordinary Shares are fully paid and non-assessable. Certificates representing the Ordinary Shares are issued in registered form.

Conversion. Class B Ordinary Shares may be converted into the same number of Class A Ordinary Shares at the option of the holders thereof at any time, while Class A Ordinary Shares cannot be converted into Class B Ordinary Shares under any circumstances.

Dividends. The holders of our Ordinary Shares are entitled to such dividends as may be declared by our board of directors. In addition, our Shareholders may declare dividends by ordinary resolution, but not dividend shall exceed the amount recommended by our directors. Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that our board of directors may, before recommending or declaring any dividend, set aside out of the funds legally available for distribution such sums as they think proper as a reserve or reserves which shall, in the absolute discretion of the directors, be applicable for meeting contingencies, or for equalizing dividends or for any other purpose to which those funds may be properly applied and pending such application may in the absolute discretion of the directors, either be employed in the business of the Company or be invested in such investments (other than Shares of the Company) as the directors may from time to time think fit. Under the laws of the Cayman Islands, our Company may pay a dividend out of either profit or the credit standing in our Company’s share premium account, provided that in no circumstances may a dividend be paid if this would result in our Company being unable to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business immediately following the date on which the distribution or dividend is paid. .

Voting Rights. Holders of Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares shall, at all times, vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote by the members at any general meeting of the Company.

Holders of our Ordinary Shares may vote on all matters submitted to a vote of our shareholders, except as may otherwise be required by law. Subject to any rights or restrictions as to voting attached to any shares, (i) on a show of hands every shareholder present in person or by proxy (or, if a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorized representative or proxy) shall, at a general meeting of our Company, have one vote for each Class A Ordinary Share and 10 votes for each Class B Ordinary Share in each case of which he is the holder; and (ii) on a poll every shareholder present in person or by proxy (or, if a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorized representative or proxy) shall have one vote for each Class A Ordinary Share and 10 votes for each Class B Ordinary Share of which he or the person represented by proxy is the holder.

Voting at any meeting of shareholders is by show of hands unless a poll (before or on the declaration of the result of the show of hands) is demanded. A poll may be demanded by the chairperson of such meeting or any one or more shareholders who together hold not less than 10% of the votes attaching to the total shares that are present in person or by proxy.

At any general meeting a resolution put to the vote of the meeting shall be decided on a show of hands unless voting by poll is demanded by the chairman of the meeting or any one or more shareholders who together hold not less than 10 percent of the votes attaching to the total shares that are present in person or by proxy.

Any ordinary resolution is a resolution passed by a simple majority of the shareholders as, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy at a general meeting of our Company and includes a unanimous written resolution.

A special resolution will be required for important matters such as amending our memorandum and articles of association or changing the name of the Company.

There are no limitations on non-residents or foreign shareholders to hold or exercise voting rights on the Ordinary Shares imposed by foreign law or by the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association or other constituent document of our Company. However, no person will be entitled to vote at any general meeting or at any separate meeting of the holders of the Ordinary Shares unless the person is registered as of the record date for such meeting and unless all calls or other sums presently payable by the person in respect of Ordinary Shares in the Company have been paid.

General Meetings of Shareholders. As a Cayman Islands exempted company, we are not obliged by the Companies Act to call shareholders’ annual general meetings. Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that we may (but are not obliged to) in each financial year hold a general meeting as its annual general meeting in which case we shall specify the meeting as such in the notices calling it, and the annual general meeting shall be held at such time and place as may be determined by our directors. Each general meeting, other than an annual general meeting, shall be an extraordinary general meeting.

Advance notice of at least seven days is required for the convening of our annual general shareholders’ meeting (if any) and any other general meeting of our Shareholders. A quorum required for a meeting of shareholders consists of at least one holder of Shares being not less than an aggregate of one-third of all votes attaching to all Shares in issue and entitled to vote in person or by proxy or, if a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorized representative.

A majority of our directors may call general meetings and they shall on a shareholders’ requisition forthwith proceed to convene an extraordinary general meeting of our Company. A shareholders’ requisition is a request of one or more shareholders holding as at the date of deposit of the request in aggregate not less than one-third of the voting rights (on a one vote per share basis) in the share capital of the Company. The requisition must state the objects of the meeting and must be signed by or on behalf of each requisitioner and delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of our amended and restated articles of association. If our directors do not within 21 calendar days from the receipt of the requisition duly proceed to convene a general meeting, the requisitioners, or any of them may themselves convene a general meeting, but any meeting so convened must be called no later than three calendar months after the expiration of the said 21 calendar day period.

Winding Up; Liquidation. Subject to applicable law and any special rights, privileges or restrictions as to the distribution of available surplus assets on liquidation applicable to any class or classes of shares (1) if we are wound up and the assets available for distribution among our shareholders are more than sufficient to repay the whole of the capital paid up at the commencement of the winding up, the excess shall be distributed pari passu among our shareholders in proportion to the par value of the Shares held by them at the commencement of the winding up subject to a deduction from those Shares in respect of which there are monies due, of all monies payable to the Company for unpaid calls or otherwise, and (2) if we are wound up and the assets available for distribution among our shareholders as such are insufficient to repay the whole of the paid-up capital, those assets shall be distributed so that, as nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by our shareholders in proportion to the par value of the Shares held by them.

Calls on Ordinary Shares and Forfeiture of Ordinary Shares. Subject to the terms of the allotment, our directors may from time to time make calls upon our shareholders in respect of any moneys unpaid on their shares in a notice served to such shareholders at least 14 calendar days prior to the specified time and place for payment. Any Ordinary Shares that have been called upon and remain unpaid are subject to forfeiture.

Redemption, Repurchase and Surrender of Shares. Subject to the terms of the Companies Act and our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association we may purchase our own shares. In accordance with our amended and restated articles of association, provided the necessary shareholders or board approval have been obtained and requirements under the Companies Act have been satisfied, we may issue shares on terms that such shares are subject to redemption at our option or at the option of the holders of these shares, on such terms and in such manner as may be determined by our Board of Directors or by the Shareholders by special resolution. Under the Companies Act, the redemption or repurchase of any share may be paid out of our Company’s profits or out of the proceeds of a new issue of shares made for the purpose of such redemption or repurchase, or out of capital (including share premium account and capital redemption reserve) if our Company can, immediately following such payment, pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. In addition, under the Companies Act no such share may be redeemed or repurchased (a) unless it is fully paid up, (b) if such redemption or repurchase would result in there being no shares issued and outstanding or (c) if the company has commenced liquidation. In addition, our Company may accept the surrender of any fully paid share for no consideration.

Transfer of Ordinary Shares. Subject to the restrictions set out below, any of our Shareholders may transfer all or any of his or her shares by an instrument of transfer in the usual or common form or any other form approved by our board of directors.

Our board of directors may, in its absolute discretion, decline to register any transfer of any share that is not fully paid up or on which we have a lien. Our board of directors may also decline to register any transfer of any share unless:

If our directors refuse to register a transfer they shall, within three months after the date on which the instrument of transfer was lodged, send to each of the transferor and the transferee notice of such refusal.

The registration of transfers may, after compliance with any notice required of Nasdaq, be suspended and the register closed at such times and for such periods as our board of directors may from time to time determine; provided, however, that the registration of transfers shall not be suspended nor the register closed for more than 30 calendar days in any year.

Variations of Rights of Shares. If at any time our share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any such class may be materially adversely varied with the consent in writing of the holders of two-thirds of the issued shares of that class or with the sanction of a resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class. The rights conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class issued shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class, be deemed to be materially adversely varied by the creation, allotment or issue of further shares ranking pari passu with or subsequent to them or the redemption or purchase of any shares of any class by the Company. The rights of the holders of shares shall not be deemed to be materially adversely varied by the creation or issue of shares with preferred or other rights including, without limitation, the creation of shares with enhanced or weighted voting rights.

Inspection of Books and Records. Holders of our Ordinary Shares have no general right under our amended and restated articles of association to inspect or obtain copies of our list of shareholders or our corporate records. However, we will provide our shareholders with annual audited financial statements. See “Where You Can Find Additional Information.”

Issuance of Additional Shares. Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association authorize our Board of Directors to issue additional Ordinary Shares from time to time as our Board of Directors shall determine, to the extent of available authorized but unissued shares.

Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association also authorize our board of directors to establish from time to time one or more series of preference shares and to determine, with respect to any series of preference shares, the terms and rights of that series, including:

Our board of directors may issue preference shares without action by our Shareholders to the extent authorized but unissued.

Issuance of these shares may dilute the voting power of holders of Ordinary Shares.

Anti-Takeover Provisions. Some provisions of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association may discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of our Company or management that shareholders may consider favorable. Our authorized, but unissued Ordinary Shares are available for future issuance without shareholders’ approval and could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise addition capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved Ordinary Shares could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

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

“Limited liability” means that the liability of each shareholder is limited to the amount unpaid by the shareholder on the shares of the company.

Nomination and Removal of Directors and Filling Vacancies on Board. At any time or from time to time, the Board shall have the power to appoint any person as a Director either to fill a casual vacancy on the Board or as an additional Director to the existing Board subject to any maximum number of Directors, if any, as may be determined by the members in general meeting.

Each Director shall hold office for the term, if any, fixed by the terms of his appointment or until his office is vacated pursuant to the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.

A Director is not required to hold any shares in the company by way of qualification nor is there any specified upper or lower age limit for Directors either for accession to or retirement from the Board.

A Director may be removed by an ordinary resolution of the Company before the expiration of his term of office (but without prejudice to any claim which such Director may have for damages for any breach of any contract between him and the Company) and the Company may by ordinary resolution appoint another in his place. Any Director so appointed shall be subject to the retirement by rotation provisions.

From time to time the Board may appoint one or more of its body to be managing director, joint managing director or deputy managing director or to hold any other employment or executive office with the company for such period and upon such terms as the Board may determine, and the Board may revoke or terminate any of such appointments. The Board may also delegate any of its powers to committees consisting of such Director(s) or other person(s) as the Board thinks fit, and from time to time it may also revoke such delegation or revoke the appointment of and discharge any such committees either wholly or in part, and either as to persons or purposes, but every committee so formed shall, in the exercise of the powers so delegated, conform to any regulations that may from time to time be imposed upon it by the Board.

If any person resident in the Cayman Islands knows or suspects or has reasonable grounds for knowing or suspecting that another person is engaged in criminal conduct or is involved with terrorism or terrorist property and the information for that knowledge or suspicion came to their attention in the course of their business in the regulated sector, or other trade, profession, business or employment, the person will be required to report such knowledge or suspicion to (i) a nominated officer (appointed in accordance with the Proceeds of Crime Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands) or the Financial Reporting Authority of the Cayman Islands, pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime Act (Revised), if the disclosure relates to criminal conduct or money laundering or (ii) to the Financial Reporting Authority or a police constable or a nominated officer (pursuant to the Terrorism Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands) or the Financial Reporting Authority, pursuant to the Terrorism Act (Revised), if the disclosure relates to involvement with terrorism or terrorist financing and terrorist property. Such a report shall not be treated as a breach of confidence or of any restriction upon the disclosure of information imposed by any enactment or otherwise.

By subscribing for shares, the subscriber consents to the disclosure of any information about them to regulators and others upon request in connection with money laundering and similar matters both in the Cayman Islands and in other jurisdictions.

In order to comply with legislation or regulations aimed at the prevention of money laundering, we are required to adopt and maintain anti-money laundering procedures, and may require subscribers to provide evidence to verify their identity and source of funds. Where permitted, and subject to certain conditions, we may also delegate the maintenance of our anti-money laundering procedures (including the acquisition of due diligence information) to a suitable person.

We reserve the right to request such information as is necessary to verify the identity of a subscriber. In some cases the directors may be satisfied that no further information is required since an exemption applies under the Anti-Money Laundering Regulations (Revised) of the Cayman Islands, as amended and revised from time to time (the “Regulations”) or any other applicable law. Depending on the circumstances of each application, a detailed verification of identity might not be required where:

For the purposes of these exceptions, recognition of a financial institution, regulatory authority or jurisdiction will be determined in accordance with the Regulations by reference to those jurisdictions recognized by the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority as having equivalent anti-money laundering regulations.

In the event of delay or failure on the part of the subscriber in producing any information required for verification purposes, we may refuse to accept the application, in which case any funds received will be returned without interest to the account from which they were originally debited.

We also reserve the right to refuse to make any payment to a shareholder if our Directors or officers suspect or are advised that the payment to such shareholder might result in a breach of applicable anti-money laundering or other laws or regulations by any person in any relevant jurisdiction, or if such refusal is considered necessary or appropriate to ensure our compliance with any such laws or regulations in any applicable jurisdiction.

If any person in the Cayman Islands knows or suspects or has reasonable grounds for knowing or suspecting that another person is engaged in criminal conduct or money laundering or is involved with terrorism or terrorist financing and property and the information for that knowledge or suspicion came to their attention in the course of business in the regulated sector, or other trade, profession, business or employment, the person will be required to report such knowledge or suspicion to (i) the Financial Reporting Authority (“FRA”) of the Cayman Islands, pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands if the disclosure relates to criminal conduct or money laundering, or (ii) a police officer of the rank of constable or higher, or the FRA, pursuant to the Terrorism Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands, if the disclosure relates to involvement with terrorism or terrorist financing and property. Such a report shall not be treated as a breach of confidence or of any restriction upon the disclosure of information imposed by any enactment or otherwise.

This privacy notice explains the manner in which the Company collects, processes and maintains personal data about investors of the company pursuant to the Data Protection Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands, as amended from time to time and any regulations, codes of practice or orders promulgated pursuant thereto (“DPA”).

The Company is committed to processing personal data in accordance with the DPA. In its use of personal data, the Company will be characterized under the DPA as a “data controller”, while certain of the Company’s service providers, affiliates and delegates may act as “data processors” under the DPA. These service providers may process personal information for their own lawful purposes in connection with services provided to the Company.

This privacy notice puts our shareholders on notice that, by virtue of making an investment in the company, the Company and certain of the Company’s service providers may collect, record, store, transfer and otherwise process personal data by which individuals may be directly or indirectly identified.

Your personal data will be processed fairly and for lawful purposes, including (a) where the processing is necessary for the Company to perform a contract to which you are a party or for taking pre-contractual steps at your request (b) where the processing is necessary for compliance with any legal, tax or regulatory obligation to which the Company is subject or (c) where the processing is for the purposes of legitimate interests pursued by the Company or by a service provider to whom the data are disclosed. As a data controller, we will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it. If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will contact you.

We anticipate that we will share your personal data with the Company’s service providers for the purposes set out in this privacy notice. We may also share relevant personal data where it is lawful to do so and necessary to comply with our contractual obligations or your instructions or where it is necessary or desirable to do so in connection with any regulatory reporting obligations. In exceptional circumstances, we will share your personal data with regulatory, prosecuting and other governmental agencies or departments, and parties to litigation (whether pending or threatened), in any country or territory including to any other person where we have a public or legal duty to do so (e.g. to assist with detecting and preventing fraud, tax evasion and financial crime or compliance with a court order).

Your personal data shall not be held by the Company for longer than necessary with regard to the purposes of the data processing.

We will not sell your personal data. Any transfer of personal data outside of the Cayman Islands shall be in accordance with the requirements of the DPA. Where necessary, we will ensure that separate and appropriate legal agreements are put in place with the recipient of that data.

The Company will only transfer personal data in accordance with the requirements of the DPA, and will apply appropriate technical and organizational information security measures designed to protect against unauthorized or unlawful processing of the personal data and against the accidental loss, destruction or damage to the personal data.

If you are a natural person, this will affect you directly. If you are a corporate investor (including, for these purposes, legal arrangements such as trusts or exempted limited partnerships) that provides us with personal data on individuals connected to you for any reason in relation to your investment into the Company, this will be relevant for those individuals and you should inform such individuals of the content.

You have certain rights under the DPA, including (a) the right to be informed as to how we collect and use your personal data (and this privacy notice fulfills the Company’s obligation in this respect); (b) the right to obtain a copy of your personal data; (c) the right to require us to stop direct marketing; (d) the right to have inaccurate or incomplete personal data corrected; (e) the right to withdraw your consent and require us to stop processing or restrict the processing, or not begin the processing of your personal data; (f) the right to be notified of a data breach (unless the breach is unlikely to be prejudicial); (g) the right to obtain information as to any countries or territories outside the Cayman Islands to which we, whether directly or indirectly, transfer, intend to transfer or wish to transfer your personal data, general measures we take to ensure the security of personal data and any information available to us as to the source of your personal data; (h) the right to complain to the Office of the Ombudsman of the Cayman Islands; and (i) the right to require us to delete your personal data in some limited circumstances.

If you consider that your personal data has not been handled correctly, or you are not satisfied with the Company’s responses to any requests you have made regarding the use of your personal data, you have the right to complain to the Cayman Islands’ Ombudsman. The Ombudsman can be contacted by accessing their website here: ombudsman.ky.

The Companies Act is modeled, to a large extent, after the older Companies Acts of England but does not follow recent English statutory enactments and, accordingly, there are significant differences between the Companies Act and the current Companies Act of England. In addition, the Companies Act differs from laws applicable to United States corporations and their shareholders. Set forth below is a summary of some of the significant differences between the provisions of the Companies Act applicable to us and the laws applicable to companies incorporated in the State of Delaware.

Mergers and Similar Arrangements. The Companies Act permits merger and consolidations between Cayman Islands companies and between Cayman Islands companies and non-Cayman Islands companies. For these purposes, a “merger” means the merging of two or more constituent companies and the vesting of their undertaking, property and liabilities in one of such companies as the surviving company, and a “consolidation” means the combination of two or more constituent companies into a consolidated company and the vesting of the undertaking, property and liabilities of such companies to the consolidated company.

In order to effect a merger or consolidation, the directors of each constituent company must approve a written plan of merger or consolidation, which must then be authorized by a special resolution of the shareholders of each constituent company, and such other authorization, if any, as may be specified in such constituent company’s articles of association. A merger between a Cayman Islands parent company and its Cayman Islands subsidiary or subsidiaries does not require authorization by a resolution of shareholders of that Cayman Islands subsidiary if a copy of the plan of merger is given to every member of that Cayman Islands subsidiary to be merged unless that member agrees otherwise. For this purpose, a subsidiary is a company of which at least ninety percent (90%) of the issued shares entitled to vote are owned by the parent company.

The plan of merger or consolidation must be filed with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands together with a declaration as to the solvency of the consolidated or surviving company, a list of the assets and liabilities of each constituent company and an undertaking that a copy of the certificate of merger or consolidation will be given to the members and creditors of each constituent company and that notification of the merger and consolidation will be published in the Cayman Islands Gazette. Dissenting shareholders have the right to be paid the fair value of their shares if they follow the required procedures under the Companies Act subject to certain exceptions. The fair value of the shares will be determined by the Cayman Islands court if it cannot be agreed among the parties. Court approval is not required for a merger or consolidation effected in compliance with these statutory procedures. The consent of each holder of a fixed or floating security interest over a constituent company is required unless this requirement is waived by a court in the Cayman Islands.

Save in certain limited circumstances, a shareholder of a Cayman Islands constituent company who dissents from the merger or consolidation is entitled to payment of the fair value of his or her shares (which, if not agreed between the parties, will be determined by the Cayman Islands court) upon dissenting to the merger or consolidation, provided the dissenting shareholder complies strictly with the procedures set out in the Companies Act. The exercise of dissenter rights will preclude the exercise by the dissenting shareholder of any other rights to which he or she might otherwise be entitled by virtue of holding shares, save for the right to seek relief on the grounds that the merger or consolidation is void or unlawful.

In addition, there are statutory provisions that facilitate the reconstruction and amalgamation of companies, provided that the arrangement is approved by either (i) a majority in number of each class of creditors with whom the arrangement is to be made, and who must in addition represent three-fourths in value of each such class of creditors, or (ii) three-fourths in value of each class of shareholders with whom the arrangement is to be made, as the case may be, that are present and voting either in person or by proxy at a meeting, or meetings, convened for that purpose. The convening of the meetings and subsequently the arrangement must be sanctioned by the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands. While a dissenting shareholder has the right to express to the court the view that the transaction ought not to be approved, the court can be expected to approve the arrangement if it determines that:

The Companies Act also contains a statutory power of compulsory acquisition that may facilitate the “squeeze out” of dissentient minority shareholders upon a tender offer. When a takeover offer is made and accepted by holders of not less than 90.0% of the shares within four months after the making of the offer, the offeror may, within a two-month period commencing on the expiration of such four month period, give notice to require the holders of the remaining shares to transfer such shares on the terms of the offer. An objection can be made to the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands by a dissenting shareholder within one month from the date on which the notice was given, but this is unlikely to succeed in the case of an offer that has been so approved unless there is evidence of fraud, bad faith or collusion.

If an arrangement and reconstruction is thus approved, the dissenting shareholder would have no rights comparable to appraisal rights, which would otherwise ordinarily be available to dissenting shareholders of Delaware corporations, providing rights to receive payment in cash for the judicially determined value of the shares.

Shareholders’ Suits. In principle, we will normally be the proper plaintiff to sue for a wrong done to us as a company, and as a general rule, a derivative action may not be brought by a minority shareholder. However, based on English authorities, which would in all likelihood be of persuasive authority in the Cayman Islands, the Cayman Islands court can be expected to follow and apply the common law principles (namely the rule in Foss v. Harbottle and the exceptions thereto) so that a non-controlling shareholder may be permitted to commence a class action against or derivative actions in the name of the company to challenge actions where:

In the case of a company (not being a bank) having its share capital divided into shares, the Grand Court may, on the application of members holding not less than one fifth of the shares of the company in issue, appoint an inspector to examine the affairs of the company and to report thereon in such manner as the Grand Court shall direct.

Indemnification of Directors and Executive Officers and Limitation of Liability. Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum and articles of association may provide for indemnification of directors and officers, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide indemnification against the consequences of committing a crime, or against the indemnified person’s own fraud or dishonesty.

Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that that we shall indemnify our officers and directors against all actions, proceedings, costs, charges, expenses, losses, damages, or liabilities incurred or sustained by such directors or officers, other than by reason of such person’s dishonesty, willful default, or fraud, in or about the conduct of our Company’s business or affairs (including as a result of any mistake of judgment) or in the execution or discharge of his or her duties, powers, authorities or discretions, including without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, any costs, expenses, losses, or liabilities incurred by such director or officer in defending (whether successfully or otherwise) any civil proceedings concerning our Company or its affairs in any court whether in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere. This standard of conduct is generally the same as permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law for a Delaware corporation.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers, or persons controlling us under the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Directors’ Fiduciary Duties. Under Delaware General Corporation Law, a director of a Delaware corporation has a fiduciary duty to the corporation and its shareholders. This duty has two components: the duty of care and the duty of loyalty. The duty of care requires that a director act in good faith, with the care that an ordinarily prudent person would exercise under similar circumstances. Under this duty, a director must inform himself of, and disclose to shareholders, all material information reasonably available regarding a significant transaction. The duty of loyalty requires that a director acts in a manner he reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the corporation. He must not use his corporate position for personal gain or advantage. This duty prohibits self-dealing by a director and mandates that the best interest of the corporation and its shareholders take precedence over any interest possessed by a director, officer or controlling shareholder and not shared by the shareholders generally. In general, actions of a director are presumed to have been made on an informed basis, in good faith and in the honest belief that the action taken was in the best interests of the corporation. However, this presumption may be rebutted by evidence of a breach of one of the fiduciary duties. Should such evidence be presented concerning a transaction by a director, the director must prove the procedural fairness of the transaction, and that the transaction was of fair value to the corporation.

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation may eliminate the right of shareholders to act by written consent by amendment to its certificate of incorporation. Cayman Islands law and our amended and restated articles of association provide that our Shareholders may approve corporate matters by way of a unanimous written resolution signed by or on behalf of each shareholder who would have been entitled to vote on such matter at a general meeting without a meeting being held.

Under Cayman Islands law, the fiduciary duties owed by a director and officer include (a) a duty to act in good faith in what the director or officer believes to be in the best interests of the company as a whole, (b) a duty to exercise their powers for the purposes for which they were conferred and not for a collateral purpose, (c) a duty to avoid improperly fettering the exercise of future discretion, (d) a duty to avoid any conflict of interest between the director’s duty to the company and the director’s personal interests, and (e) a duty to exercise independent judgment. In addition to the above, directors also owe a duty of care which is not fiduciary in nature. It was previously considered that a director need not exhibit in the performance of his duties a greater degree of skill than may reasonably be expected from a person of his knowledge and experience. However, English and Commonwealth courts have moved towards an objective standard with regard to the required skill and care and these authorities are likely to be followed in the Cayman Islands.

Shareholder Action by Written Consent. Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation may eliminate the right of shareholders to act by written consent by amendment to its certificate of incorporation. The Companies Act and our amended and restated articles of association provide that shareholders may approve corporate matters by way of a unanimous written resolution signed by or on behalf of each shareholder who would have been entitled to vote on such matter at a general meeting without a meeting being held.

Shareholder Proposals. Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a shareholder has the right to put any proposal before the annual meeting of shareholders, provided it complies with the notice provisions in the governing documents. A special meeting may be called by the board of directors or any other person authorized to do so in the governing documents, but shareholders may be precluded from calling special meetings.

The Companies Act provides shareholders with only limited rights to requisition a general meeting, and it does not provide shareholders with any right to put any proposal before a general meeting. However, these rights may be provided in a company’s articles of association. Our amended and restated articles of association allow our Shareholders holding in aggregate not less than one-third of all votes attaching to the issued and outstanding shares of our Company entitled to vote at general meetings to requisition an extraordinary general meeting of our Shareholders, in which case our board is obliged to convene an extraordinary general meeting and to put the resolutions so requisitioned to a vote at such meeting. Other than this right to requisition a shareholders’ meeting, our amended and restated articles of association do not provide our Shareholders with any other right to put proposals before annual general meetings or extraordinary general meetings. As an exempted Cayman Islands company, we may but are not obliged by law to call shareholders’ annual general meetings.

Cumulative Voting. Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, cumulative voting for elections of directors is not permitted unless the corporation’s certificate of incorporation specifically provides for it. Cumulative voting potentially facilitates the representation of minority shareholders on a board of directors since it permits the minority shareholder to cast all the votes to which the shareholder is entitled on a single director, which increases the shareholder’s voting power with respect to electing such director. There are no prohibitions in relation to cumulative voting under the Companies Act but our amended and restated articles of association do not provide for cumulative voting. As a result, our Shareholders are not afforded any less protections or rights on this issue than shareholders of a Delaware corporation.

Removal of Directors. Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a director of a corporation with a classified board may be removed only for cause with the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote, unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Under our amended and restated articles of association, directors may be removed with or without cause, by an ordinary resolution of our Shareholders. In addition, a director’s office shall be vacated if the director (i) becomes bankrupt or makes any arrangement or composition with his creditors; (ii) is found to be or becomes of unsound mind or dies; (iii) resigns his or her office by notice in writing to the company; (iv) without special leave of absence from our board, is absent from meetings of our board for three consecutive meetings and our board resolves that his office be vacated; or (v) is removed from office pursuant to any other provisions of our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association.

Transactions with Interested Shareholders. The Delaware General Corporation Law contains a business combination statute applicable to Delaware corporations whereby, unless the corporation has specifically elected not to be governed by such statute by amendment to its certificate of incorporation, it is prohibited from engaging in certain business combinations with an “interested shareholder” for three years following the date that such person becomes an interested shareholder. An interested shareholder generally is a person or a group who or which owns or owned 15% or more of the target’s outstanding voting share within the past three years. This has the effect of limiting the ability of a potential acquirer to make a two-tiered bid for the target in which all shareholders would not be treated equally. The statute does not apply if, among other things, prior to the date on which such shareholder becomes an interested shareholder, the board of directors approves either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the person becoming an interested shareholder. This encourages any potential acquirer of a Delaware corporation to negotiate the terms of any acquisition transaction with the target’s board of directors.

The Cayman Islands has no comparable statute. As a result, we cannot avail ourselves of the types of protections afforded by the Delaware business combination statute. However, although Cayman Islands law does not regulate transactions between a company and its significant shareholders, it does provide that such transactions must be entered into bona fide in the best interests of the company and for a proper corporate purpose and not with the effect of constituting a fraud on the minority shareholders.

Dissolution; Winding up. Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, unless the board of directors approves the proposal to dissolve, dissolution must be approved by shareholders holding 100% of the total voting power of the corporation. Only if the dissolution is initiated by the board of directors may it be approved by a simple majority of the corporation’s outstanding shares. Delaware law allows a Delaware corporation to include in its certificate of incorporation a supermajority voting requirement in connection with dissolutions initiated by the board.

Under the Companies Act, a company may be wound up by either an order of the courts of the Cayman Islands, by a special resolution of its members or, if the company is unable to pay its debts as they fall due, by an ordinary resolution of its members. The court has authority to order winding up in a number of specified circumstances including where it is, in the opinion of the court, just and equitable to do so. Under the Companies Act and our amended and restated articles of association, our Company may be dissolved, liquidated or wound up by a special resolution of our shareholders.

Variation of Rights of Shares. Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation may vary the rights of a class of shares with the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares of such class, unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Under the Companies Act and our amended and restated articles of association, if our share capital is divided into more than one class of shares, we may vary the rights attached to any class with the written consent of not less than two-thirds of the issued shares of that class or with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a separate general meeting of the holders of the shares of that class. The rights conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to the shares of that class, be deemed to be materially adversely varied by the creation, allotment or issue of further shares ranking pari passu with or subsequent to them or the redemption or purchase of any shares of any class by our Company. The rights of the holders of shares shall not be deemed to be materially adversely varied by the creation or issue of shares with preferred or other rights including, without limitation, the creation of shares with enhanced or weighted voting rights.

Amendment of Governing Documents. Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation’s governing documents may be amended with the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote, unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. As permitted by the Companies Act, our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association may only be amended by a special resolution of our shareholders.

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

Upon the completion of this Offering, we will have [ ] Class A Ordinary Shares (or [ ] Class A Ordinary Shares if the Underwriter exercises its over-allotment option in full) and [ ] Class B Ordinary Shares outstanding. All of the Class A Ordinary Shares sold in this Offering will be freely transferable by persons other than our “affiliates”, as that term is defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act.

Prior to this Offering, there has been no public market for our Class A Ordinary Shares, and while we plan to apply to list our Class A Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq, we cannot assure you that a regular trading market for our Class A Ordinary Shares will develop or be sustained after this Offering. Future sales of substantial amounts of Class A Ordinary Shares in the public market, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares. Further, since a large number of our Class A Ordinary Shares will not be available for sale shortly after this Offering because of the contractual and legal restrictions on resale described below, sales of substantial amounts of our Class A Ordinary Shares in the public market after these restrictions lapse, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price and our ability to raise equity capital in the future.

We have agreed not to, for a period of 180 days after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, offer, issue, sell, contract to sell, encumber, grant any option for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of, except in this Offering, any of our Ordinary Shares or securities that are substantially similar to our Ordinary Shares, including but not limited to any options or warrants to purchase our Ordinary Shares, or any securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, our Ordinary Shares or any such substantially similar securities (other than pursuant to employee stock option plans existing on, or upon the conversion or exchange of convertible or exchangeable securities outstanding as of, the date such lock-up agreement was executed), without the prior written consent of the Underwriter.

Furthermore, each of our directors and executive officers has also entered into a similar lock-up agreement for a period of 180 days after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, subject to certain exceptions, with respect to our Ordinary Shares and securities that are substantially similar to our Ordinary Shares. Pursuant to such lock-up agreements, each of our directors and executive officers has agreed, subject to limited exceptions set forth below, not to offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Ordinary Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares, that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of our Ordinary Shares or such other securities for a period of 180 days after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter.

Other than this Offering, we are not aware of any plans by any significant shareholders to dispose of significant numbers of our Ordinary Shares. However, one or more existing shareholders or owners of securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for our Ordinary Shares may dispose of significant numbers of our Ordinary Shares in the future. We cannot predict what effect, if any, future sales of our Ordinary Shares, or the availability of Ordinary Shares for future sale, will have on the trading price of our Ordinary Shares from time to time. Sales of substantial amounts of our Ordinary Shares in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the trading price of our Ordinary Shares.

All of our Shares outstanding prior to this Offering are “restricted shares” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act and may be sold publicly in the United States only if they are subject to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements. Under Rule 144 as currently in effect, persons who became the beneficial owner of shares of our Class A common stock prior to the completion of this Offering may sell such shares upon the earlier of (1) the expiration of a six-month holding period, if we have been subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for at least 90 days prior to the date of the sale and have filed all reports required thereunder, or (2) the expiration of a one-year holding period.

At the expiration of the six-month holding period, assuming we have been subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements for at least 90 days and have filed all reports required thereunder, a person who was not one of our affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale would be entitled to sell an unlimited number of Shares acquired prior to the completion of this Offering, and a person who was one of our affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale would be entitled to sell upon expiration of the Lock-Up Agreements described above, within any three-month period, a number of Shares acquired prior to the completion of this Offering in the amount does not exceed the greater of the following:

At the expiration of the one-year holding period, a person who was not one of our affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale would be entitled to sell an unlimited number of Shares acquired prior to the completion of this Offering without restriction. A person who was one of our affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale, upon expiration of the Lock-up Agreements described above, would remain subject to the volume restrictions described above.

Affiliates who sell restricted securities under Rule 144 may not solicit orders or arrange for the solicitation of orders, and they are also subject to notice requirements and the availability of current public information about us.

Persons who are not our affiliates are only subject to one of these additional restrictions, the requirement of the availability of current public information about us, and this additional restriction does not apply if they have beneficially owned our restricted shares for more than one year.

In general, under Rule 701 of the Securities Act as currently in effect, each of our employees, consultants or advisors who purchases our Shares from us in connection with a compensatory stock or option plan or other written agreement relating to compensation is eligible to resell such Shares 90 days after we became a reporting company under the Exchange Act in reliance on Rule 144, but without compliance with some of the restrictions, including the holding period, contained in Rule 144.

The following are material Cayman Islands tax, Singapore tax and U.S. federal income tax considerations relevant to an investment in our Class A Ordinary Shares. This discussion does not address all of the tax consequences that may be relevant in light of the investor’s particular circumstances. Potential investors should consult their tax advisers regarding Singapore, U.S. federal, state and local, and non-U.S. tax consequences of owning and disposing of our Class A Ordinary Shares in their particular circumstances.

The Cayman Islands currently levies no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains, or appreciation and there is no taxation in the nature of inheritance tax or estate duty. There are no other taxes likely to be material to us levied by the Government of the Cayman Islands except for stamp duties which may be applicable on instruments executed in, or, after execution, brought within the jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands. No stamp duty is payable in the Cayman Islands on the issue of shares by, or any transfers of shares of, Cayman Islands companies (except those which hold interests in land in the Cayman Islands). There are no exchange control regulations or currency restrictions in the Cayman Islands.

Payments of dividends and capital in respect of our Class A Ordinary Shares will not be subject to taxation in the Cayman Islands and no withholding will be required on the payment of a dividend or capital to any holder of our Class A Ordinary Shares, nor will gains derived from the disposal of our Class A Ordinary Shares be subject to Cayman Islands income or corporation tax.

No stamp duty is payable in the Cayman Islands in respect of the issue of our Class A Ordinary Shares or on an instrument of transfer in respect of our Class A Ordinary Shares so long as the instrument of transfer is not executed in, brought to, or produced before a court of the Cayman Islands.

An individual is considered a tax resident in Singapore for a particular year of assessment (“YA”) if, during the preceding calendar year, he was physically present in Singapore or was employed in Singapore (other than as a director of a company) for 183 days or more, except for temporary absences.

Individual taxpayers (both tax resident and non-tax resident of Singapore) are liable to pay Singapore individual income tax on income accruing in or derived from Singapore, with specific exemptions. Foreign-sourced income received or deemed received in Singapore by an individual taxpayer is generally exempt from income tax in Singapore, irrespective of an individual’s tax residency status in Singapore, except when such income is acquired through a partnership in Singapore by the individual.

Between calendar year 2016 to calendar year 2022 (i.e. YA 2017 to YA 2023), a Singapore tax resident individual is subject to tax at the progressive rates, ranging from 0% to 22%, after deducting qualifying personal reliefs where applicable. With effect from calendar year 2023 (i.e. YA 2024), a Singapore tax resident individual is subject to tax at the progressive rates, ranging from 0% to 24%. Non-Singapore tax resident individuals generally face a flat tax rate of 15% on employment income or the progressive resident tax rates, whichever results in a higher tax amount. All other income derived or accruing in Singapore (such as director’s fee, consultation fees, rental income and all other income) will be subject to a flat tax rate of 22% (up to calendar year 2022 or YA 2023), and 24% (from calendar year 2023 or YA 2024 onwards).

A company is considered a Singapore tax resident if the control and management of the company’s business is exercised in Singapore. A Singapore tax resident corporate taxpayer is liable to pay Singapore income tax on income accruing in or derived from Singapore and income derived from outside Singapore (i.e. foreign-sourced income) which is received or deemed received in Singapore, unless otherwise exempted.

Tax exemption will be granted to a Singapore tax resident corporate taxpayer on its foreign-sourced dividends, foreign branch profits and foreign-sourced service income (“specified foreign income”) received or deemed to be received in Singapore, subject to satisfaction of the qualifying conditions.

A non-Singapore tax resident corporate taxpayer conducting trade or business in Singapore, is subject to Singapore income tax on income accruing in or derived from Singapore, and foreign-sourced income received or deemed received in Singapore.

The prevailing corporate tax rate in Singapore is 17% and taxpayers are entitled to claim partial tax exemption on the first S$200,000 of a company’s normal chargeable income as follows:

Additionally, new start-up companies will, subject to certain conditions, be eligible for partial tax exemption on the first S$200,000 of normal chargeable income in their first three consecutive years of assessment as follows:

Singapore currently does not impose tax on capital gains. Any gains derived from the disposal of our Class A Ordinary Shares which are considered to be capital in nature will not be subject to tax in Singapore. However, gains arising from the disposal of investments may be considered income in nature and if they arise from or are otherwise connected with the activities of a trade or business carried on in Singapore, they may consequently be subject to Singapore income tax. There are no specific laws or regulations governing whether a gain should be characterised as income or capital in nature. The characterization of gains arising from the disposal of our Class A Ordinary Shares will depend primarily on the facts and circumstances of each Shareholder. Given that the facts and circumstances of each Shareholder will differ, it is recommended that Shareholders seek advice from their own tax advisers regarding the Singapore tax implications relevant to their individual circumstances.

Singapore offers certainty on the non-taxability of gains derived by a corporate taxpayer from the disposal of ordinary shares (with certain exceptions) between 1 June 2012 and 31 December 2027 (both dates inclusive) where the divesting company has held at least 20% of the ordinary shares in the investee company for a continuous period of at least 24 months immediately preceding the disposal.

All Shareholders and investors are advised to consult their own tax advisers concerning the Singapore income tax implications associated with their subscription for, purchase, holding and disposal of our Shares.

Moreover, Shareholders who have adopted, or are required to adopt, the Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (International) (“SFRS (I)”) 9 (Financial Instruments) may be required to recognize gains or losses in accordance with the provisions of SFRS (I) 9 irrespective of whether there is any disposal of our Class A Ordinary Shares. If such is the case, any gain or loss on the Class A Ordinary Shares, if held on revenue account, may be subject to taxation or deductible for Singapore income tax purposes notwithstanding such gain or loss being unrealized. Gains or losses (whether realized or unrealized) arising from our Class A Ordinary Shares held on capital account will not be subject to tax or deductible. Shareholders potentially subjected to such tax treatment should seek advice from their own accounting and tax advisers regarding the Singapore income tax implications that may arise from the adoption of SFRS (I) 9 in relation to their subscription for, purchase, holding and disposal of our Class A Ordinary Shares.

The sale of our Class A Ordinary Shares by a GST-registered investor belonging in Singapore to another person belonging in Singapore is an exempt supply and is therefore not subject to GST. Any input GST (e.g. GST on brokerage) incurred by the GST-registered investor in making such an exempt supply is generally not recoverable from the Comptroller of GST and constitutes an additional cost to the investor, unless certain conditions specified under the GST legislation or certain GST concessions are met by the investor. Where our Class A Ordinary Shares are sold by a GST-registered investor to a person belonging outside Singapore, and the supply directly benefits:

the sale of the Class A Ordinary Shares qualifies for zero-rating (i.e. subject to GST at 0%). As a general rule, any input GST incurred by a GST-registered investor in the making of this zero-rated supply in the course of or furtherance of his business activities, may be recovered from the Comptroller of GST as input tax credit, subject to the normal input tax recovery rules.

Investors are advised to seek their own tax advice regarding the recoverability of GST incurred on expenses related to the purchase and disposition of our Class A Ordinary Shares. Services consisting of arranging, broking, underwriting or advising on the issue, allotment or transfer of ownership of our Class A Ordinary Shares provided by a GST-registered person to an investor belonging in Singapore for GST purposes in connection with the investor’s purchase, sale or holding of our Shares should be subject to GST at the standard rate, presently at 9%. Such services should qualify for zero-rating if these services are contractually supplied to an investor belonging outside Singapore and the supply directly benefits:

Singapore operates under the one-tier corporate taxation system (“One-Tier System”). Under the One-Tier System, the tax paid by a Singapore tax resident company constitutes a final tax. All dividends disbursed by a Singapore tax resident company are exempted from tax in Singapore for Shareholders regardless of their tax residency and whether the Shareholder is a company or an individual. Presently, Singapore does not impose withholding tax on dividends.

All foreign Shareholders/investors are advised to consult their own tax advisers regarding the tax laws of their respective countries of residence pertaining to the dividends received by them and the applicability of any double taxation agreement between their country of residence and Singapore.

The following discussion is a summary of U.S. federal income tax considerations generally applicable to U.S. Holders (as defined below) of the ownership and disposition of our Class A Ordinary Shares. This summary applies only to U.S. Holders that hold our Class A Ordinary Shares as capital assets (generally, property held for investment) and that have the U.S. dollar as their functional currency. This summary is based on U.S. tax laws in effect as of the date of this prospectus, on U.S. Treasury regulations in effect or, in some cases, proposed as of the date of this prospectus, and judicial and administrative interpretations thereof available on or before such date. All of the foregoing authorities are subject to change, which could apply retroactively and could affect the tax consequences described below. No ruling has been sought from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) with respect to any U.S. federal income tax considerations described below, and there can be no assurance that the IRS or a court will not take a contrary position. Moreover, this summary does not address the U.S. federal estate, gift, backup withholding, and alternative minimum tax considerations, or any state, local, and non-U.S. tax considerations, relating to the ownership and disposition of our Class A Ordinary Shares. The following summary does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to particular investors in light of their individual circumstances or to persons in special tax situations such as:

For purposes of this discussion, a “U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of our Class A Ordinary Shares that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

If a partnership (or other entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is a beneficial owner of our Class A Ordinary Shares, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partnerships holding our Class A Ordinary Shares and their partners are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding an investment in our Class A Ordinary Shares.

Persons considering an investment in our Class A Ordinary Shares should consult their own tax advisors as to the particular tax consequences applicable to them relating to the purchase, ownership and disposition of our Class A Ordinary Shares including the applicability of U.S. federal, state and local tax laws and non-U.S. tax laws.

As discussed under “Dividend Policy” above, we do not anticipate that any dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future. Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, a U.S. Holder generally will be required to include in gross income, in accordance with such U.S. Holder’s method of accounting for United States federal income tax purposes, as dividends the amount of any distribution paid on the Class A Ordinary Shares to the extent the distribution is paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under United States federal income tax principles). Such dividends paid by us will be taxable to a corporate U.S. Holder as dividend income and will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction generally allowed to domestic corporations in respect of dividends received from other domestic corporations. Dividends received by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders (including individuals) may be “qualified dividend income,” which is taxed at the lower capital gains rate, provided that our Class A Ordinary Shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States and the U.S. Holder satisfies certain holding periods and other requirements. In this regard, Class A Ordinary Shares generally are considered to be readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States if they are listed on Nasdaq, as our Class A Ordinary Shares are expected to be.

Distributions in excess of such earnings and profits generally will be applied against and reduce the U.S. Holder’s basis in its Class A Ordinary Shares (but not below zero) and, to the extent in excess of such basis, will be treated as gain from the sale or exchange of such Class A Ordinary Shares. In the event that we do not maintain calculations of our earnings and profits under United States federal income tax principles, a U.S. Holder should expect that all cash distributions will be reported as dividends for United States federal income tax purposes. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability of the lower rate for any cash dividends paid with respect to our Class A Ordinary Shares.

Dividends will generally be treated as income from foreign sources for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes and will generally constitute passive category income. Depending on the U.S. Holder’s individual facts and circumstances, a U.S. Holder may be eligible, subject to a number of complex limitations, to claim a foreign tax credit not in excess of any applicable treaty rate in respect of any foreign withholding taxes imposed on dividends received on our Class A Ordinary Shares. A U.S. Holder who does not elect to claim a foreign tax credit for foreign tax withheld may instead claim a deduction, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, in respect of such withholding, but only for a year in which such U.S. Holder elects to do so for all creditable foreign income taxes. The rules governing the foreign tax credit are complex and their outcome depends in large part on the U.S. Holder’s individual facts and circumstances. Accordingly, U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances.

Subject to the discussion below under “Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules,” a U.S. Holder will generally recognize capital gain or loss upon the sale or other disposition of Class A Ordinary Shares in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized upon the disposition and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such Class A Ordinary Shares. Any capital gain or loss will be long term if the Class A Ordinary Shares have been held for more than one year and will generally be U.S.-source gain or loss for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate taxpayers are currently eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of a capital loss may be subject to limitations. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences if a foreign tax is imposed on a disposition of our Class A Ordinary Shares, including the availability of the foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances.

A non-U.S. corporation, such as our company, will be classified as a PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year, if either (i) 75% or more of its gross income for such year consists of certain types of “passive” income or (ii) 50% or more of the value of its assets (determined on the basis of a quarterly average) during such year is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income. For this purpose, cash and cash equivalents are categorized as passive assets and the company’s goodwill and other unbooked intangibles are taken into account as non-passive assets. Passive income generally includes, among other things, dividends, interest, rents, royalties, and gains from the disposition of passive assets. We will be treated as owning a proportionate share of the assets and earning a proportionate share of the income of any other corporation in which we own, directly or indirectly, more than 25% (by value) of the stock.

No assurance can be given as to whether we may be or may become a PFIC, as this is a factual determination made annually that will depend, in part, upon the composition of our income and assets. Furthermore, the composition of our income and assets may also be affected by how, and how quickly, we use our liquid assets and the cash raised in this Offering. Under circumstances where our revenue from activities that produce passive income significantly increase relative to our revenue from activities that produce non-passive income, or where we determine not to deploy significant amounts of cash for active purposes, our risk of becoming classified as a PFIC may substantially increase. In addition, because there are uncertainties in the application of the relevant rules, it is possible that the Internal Revenue Service may challenge our classification of certain income and assets as non-passive or our valuation of our tangible and intangible assets, each of which may result in our becoming a PFIC for the current or subsequent taxable years. If we were classified as a PFIC for any year during which a U.S. Holder held our Class A Ordinary Shares, we generally would continue to be treated as a PFIC for all succeeding years during which such U.S. Holder held our Class A Ordinary Shares even if we cease to be a PFIC in subsequent years, unless certain elections are made. Our U.S. counsel expresses no opinion with respect to our PFIC status for any taxable year.

If we are classified as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder holds our Class A Ordinary Shares, and unless the U.S. Holder makes a mark-to-market election (as described below), the U.S. Holder will generally be subject to special tax rules that have a penalizing effect, regardless of whether we remain a PFIC, on (i) any excess distribution that we make to the U.S. Holder (which generally means any distribution paid during a taxable year to a U.S. Holder that is greater than 125 percent of the average annual distributions paid in the three preceding taxable years or, if shorter, the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the Class A Ordinary Shares), and (ii) any gain realized on the sale or other disposition of Class A Ordinary Shares. Under these rules,

If we are treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder holds our Class A Ordinary Shares, or if any of our subsidiaries is also a PFIC, such U.S. Holder would be treated as owning a proportionate amount (by value) of the shares of any lower-tier PFICs for purposes of the application of these rules. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to any of our subsidiaries.

As an alternative to the foregoing rules, a U.S. Holder of “marketable stock” in a PFIC may make a mark-to-market election with respect to such stock, provided that such stock is “regularly traded” within the meaning of applicable U.S. Treasury regulations. If our Class A Ordinary Shares qualify as being regularly traded, and an election is made, the U.S. Holder will generally (i) include as ordinary income for each taxable year that we are a PFIC the excess, if any, of the fair market value of Class A Ordinary Shares held at the end of the taxable year over the adjusted tax basis of such Class A Ordinary Shares and (ii) deduct as an ordinary loss the excess, if any, of the adjusted tax basis of the Class A Ordinary Shares over the fair market value of such Class A Ordinary Shares held at the end of the taxable year, but such deduction will only be allowed to the extent of the amount previously included in income as a result of the mark-to-market election. The U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Class A Ordinary Shares would be adjusted to reflect any income or loss resulting from the mark-to-market election. If a U.S. Holder makes a mark-to-market election in respect of a corporation classified as a PFIC and such corporation ceases to be classified as a PFIC, the U.S. Holder will not be required to take into account the gain or loss described above during any period that such corporation is not classified as a PFIC. If a U.S. Holder makes a mark-to-market election, any gain such U.S. Holder recognizes upon the sale or other disposition of our Class A Ordinary Shares in a year when we are a PFIC will be treated as ordinary income and any loss will be treated as ordinary loss, but such loss will only be treated as ordinary loss to the extent of the net amount previously included in income as a result of the mark-to-market election.

Because a mark-to-market election cannot be made for any lower-tier PFICs that we may own, a U.S. Holder may continue to be subject to the PFIC rules with respect to such U.S. Holder’s indirect interest in any investments held by us that are treated as an equity interest in a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Furthermore, as an alternative to the foregoing rules, a U.S. Holder that owns stock of a PFIC generally may make a “qualified electing fund” election regarding such corporation to elect out of the PFIC rules described above regarding excess distributions and recognized gains. However, we do not intend to provide information necessary for U.S. Holders to make qualified electing fund elections which, if available, would result in tax treatment different from the general tax treatment for PFICs described above.

If a U.S. Holder owns our Class A Ordinary Shares during any taxable year that we are a PFIC, the U.S. Holder must generally file an annual Internal Revenue Service Form 8621 and provide such other information as may be required by the U.S. Treasury Department, whether or not a mark-to-market election is or has been made. If we are or become a PFIC, you should consult your tax advisor regarding any reporting requirements that may apply to you.

You should consult your tax advisors regarding how the PFIC rules apply to your investment in our Class A Ordinary Shares.

Certain U.S. Holders are required to report information to the Internal Revenue Service relating to an interest in “specified foreign financial assets,” including shares issued by a non-United States corporation, for any year in which the aggregate value of all specified foreign financial assets exceeds $50,000 (or a higher dollar amount prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service), subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for shares held in custodial accounts maintained with a U.S. financial institution). These rules also impose penalties if a U.S. Holder is required to submit such information to the Internal Revenue Service and fails to do so.

In addition, dividend payments with respect to our Class A Ordinary Shares and proceeds from the sale, exchange or redemption of our Class A Ordinary Shares may be subject to additional information reporting to the IRS and possible U.S. backup withholding. Backup withholding will not apply, however, to a U.S. Holder who furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number and makes any other required certification on IRS Form W-9 or who is otherwise exempt from backup withholding. U.S. Holders who are required to establish their exempt status generally must provide such certification on IRS Form W-9. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the U.S. information reporting and backup withholding rules.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld as backup withholding may be credited against your U.S. federal income tax liability, and you may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules by filing the appropriate claim for refund with the IRS and furnishing any required information. We do not intend to withhold taxes for individual Shareholders. However, transactions effected through certain brokers or other intermediaries may be subject to withholding taxes (including backup withholding), and such brokers or intermediaries may be required by law to withhold such taxes.

EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR SHOULD CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE PARTICULAR U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND NON-U.S. TAX CONSEQUENCES OF PURCHASING, HOLDING AND DISPOSING OF OUR CLASS A ORDINARY SHARES, INCLUDING THE CONSEQUENCES OF ANY PROPOSED CHANGE IN APPLICABLE LAWS.

In connection with this Offering, we will enter into an underwriting agreement with Network 1 Financial Securities, Inc., as underwriter (the “Underwriter”), with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares in this Offering. The Underwriter may retain other brokers or dealers to act as sub-agents or selected dealers on their behalf in connection with this Offering and may pay any sub-agent a solicitation fee with respect to any securities placed by it. The Underwriter has agreed to purchase from us the number of Class A Ordinary Shares set forth opposite its name below, at the Offer Price less the underwriting discounts set forth on the cover page of this prospectus:

The Underwriter is committed to purchase all the Class A Ordinary Shares offered by this prospectus if it purchases any Class A Ordinary Shares. The Underwriter is not obligated to purchase the Class A Ordinary Shares covered by the Underwriter’s over-allotment option to purchase Class A Ordinary Shares as described below. The Underwriter is offering the Class A Ordinary Shares, subject to prior sale, when, as, and if issued to and accepted by them, subject to approval of legal matters by its counsel and other conditions contained in the underwriting agreement, such as the receipt by the Underwriter of officer’s certificates and legal opinions. The Underwriter reserves the right to withdraw, cancel, or modify offers to the public and to reject orders in whole or in part.

Prior to this Offering, there has been no public market for our Class A Ordinary Shares. The Offer Price for our Class A Ordinary Shares will be determined through negotiations between us and the Underwriter. Among the factors to be considered in these negotiations will be the general prevailing market and economic conditions, our financial information; estimates of our business potential and earning prospects, and other factors deemed relevant by the Company and the Underwriter. The Offer Price of our Class A Ordinary Shares in this Offering does not necessarily bear any direct relationship to the assets, operations, book value, or other established criteria of value of our Company.

We have granted to the Underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to an aggregate of additional Class A Ordinary Shares (equal to 15% of the number of Class A Ordinary Shares sold in the Offering) at the Offer Price per Share less underwriting discounts and commissions. The Underwriter may exercise this option for 45 days from the date of the closing of this Offering solely to cover sales of Class A Ordinary Shares by the Underwriter in excess of the total number of Class A Ordinary Shares set forth in the table above. If any of the additional Class A Ordinary Shares are purchased, the Underwriter will offer the additional Class A Ordinary Shares at $[ ] per Share, the Offer Price of each Share.

The underwriting discounts for the Class A Ordinary Shares and the over-allotment shares are equal to 7.5% of the Offer Price; provided, however, that for Company-introduced investors that purchase Class A Ordinary Shares in this Offering through the Underwriter, the underwriting discounts shall equal 3.75%.

The following table shows the price per share and total Offer Price, underwriting discounts, and proceeds before expenses to us. The total amounts are shown assuming both no exercise and full exercise of the over-allotment option.

We have agreed to pay to the Underwriter, by deduction from the gross proceeds of the Offering contemplated herein, a non-accountable expense allowance equal to one percent (1%) of the gross proceeds received by us from the sale of the Class A Ordinary Shares in this Offering.

We have agreed to pay expenses relating to the Offering, including: (i) our legal and accounting fees and disbursements; (ii) the costs of preparing, printing, mailing, and delivering the registration statement, the preliminary and final prospectus contained therein and amendments thereto, post-effective amendments and supplements thereto, the underwriting agreement and related documents (all in such quantities as the Underwriter may reasonably require); (iii) the costs of preparing and printing stock certificates and warrant certificates; (iv) the costs of any “due diligence” meetings; (v) all reasonable and documented fees and expenses for conducting a net road show presentation; (vi) all filing fees and communication expenses relating to the registration of the shares to be sold in the Offering with the SEC and the filing of the Offering materials with FINRA; (vii) the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of the Underwriter’s counsel up to $100,000; (viii) background checks of the Company’s officers and directors up to $15,000; (ix) preparation of bound volumes and mementos in such quantities as the Underwriter may reasonably request up to $2,500; (x) transfer taxes, if any, payable upon the transfer of securities from us to the Underwriter; and (xi) the fees and expenses of the transfer agent, clearing firm, and registrar for the Class A Ordinary Shares; provided that the actual accountable expenses of the Underwriter shall not exceed $175,000 (the “Accountable Expense Allowance”). We are required to supply the Underwriter and its counsel, at our cost, with a reasonable number of bound volumes of the Offering materials within a reasonable time after the closing of this Offering as well as commemorative tombstones.

We paid an expense deposit of $50,000 to the Underwriter, upon the execution of a letter of intent between us and the Underwriter, as an advance to be applied towards the Accountable Expense Allowance. Additionally, we paid $25,000 to the Underwriter, upon the confidential filing of this registration statement, which shall be applied towards the Accountable Expense Allowance. Upon the public filing of this registration statement, we shall pay $50,000 to the Underwriter, which shall be applied to the Accountable Expense Allowance. Upon the closing of this Offering, we will pay an additional $50,000 to the Underwriter, which shall be applied to the remaining outstanding Accountable Expense Allowance. Any expense deposits will be returned to us to the extent the Underwriter’s out-of-pocket accountable expenses are not actually incurred in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(4)(A).

We estimate that the total expenses of the Offering payable by us, excluding the underwriting discounts and non-accountable expense allowance, will be approximately $[ ].

We have agreed to issue warrants to the Underwriter or its designees (the “Underwriter Warrants”) to purchase a number of Class A Ordinary Shares equal to ten percent (10%) of the total number of Class A Ordinary Shares sold in this Offering, including Class A Ordinary Shares issued upon exercise of the Underwriter’s over-allotment option. Such Underwriter Warrants shall have an exercise price equal to 125% of the Offer Price of the Class A Ordinary Shares sold in this Offering. The Underwriter Warrants are exercisable for a period of five (5) years following the date of commencement of sales of the Offering, in whole or in part. The Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Underwriter Warrants have resale registration rights, including one demand at our expense and one demand at the holders’ expense, and unlimited “piggy-back” rights at our expense for a period of five (5) years from the effective date of this registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. In compliance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8), such registration rights are limited to demand and “piggy back” rights for a period of five (5) years from the effective date of this registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, and such demand rights may be exercised on only one occasion.

The Underwriter Warrants and the underlying Class A Ordinary Shares are deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the commencement of sales of this Offering. Pursuant to FINRA 5110(e)(1), these securities may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, nor may they be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the commencement of sales of this Offering except to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the Offering and their officers or partners, registered persons of affiliates or as otherwise permitted under FINRA Rule 5110(e)(2).

We have granted the Underwriter a right of first refusal, for a period of twelve (12) months from the closing of the Offering, to co-manage any public future public and private equity and debt offering, (excluding (i) shares issued under any compensation or stock option plan approved by the Company’s shareholders, (ii) shares issued as consideration of an acquisition or as part of a strategic partnership or transaction and (iii) conventional banking arrangements and commercial debt financing), during such twelve (12) month period, of the Company, or any successor to or any current or future subsidiary of the Company, with the Underwriter receiving the right to underwrite or place a number of the securities to be sold therein having an aggregate purchase price therein equal to a minimum of the aggregate purchase price of the Class A Ordinary Shares sold in this Offering (excluding Class A Ordinary Shares issued upon exercise of Underwriter’s over-allotment option). If the Underwriter fails to accept in writing any such proposal within ten (10) days after receipt of a written notice from us containing such proposal, the Underwriter will have no claim or right with respect to any such sale contained in any such notice. If, thereafter, such proposal is modified in any material respect, the Company will adopt the same procedure as with respect to the original proposed public of private sale, and the Underwriter shall have the right of first refusal with respect to such revised proposal as set forth above. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(6)(A), such right of first refusal shall not have a duration of more than three years from the commencement of sales of this Offering.

The Company, on behalf of itself and any successor entity, agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter, it will not, for a period of 180 days after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any notion or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lead, or otherwise transfer or dispose of directly or indirectly, any share of capital share of the Company or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital share of the Company; (ii) file or caused to be filed any registration statement with the SEC relating to the offering of any shares of capital share of the Company of any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital shares of the Company; (iii) complete any offering of debt securities of the Company, other than entering into a line of credit with a traditional bank or (iv) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of capital share of the Company, whether any such transaction described in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above is to be settled by delivery of shares of capital shares of the Company or such other securities, in such or otherwise.

Our Directors and executive officers have agreed, subject to limited exceptions set forth below, not to offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of capital stock of the Company or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company (the “Lock-Up Securities”), that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of our Shares or such other securities for a period of 180 days after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter.

Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary and subject to the conditions below, a holder may transfer Lock-Up Securities without the prior written consent of the Underwriter in connection with (a) transactions relating to Lock-Up Securities acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the Offering; provided that no filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, shall be required or shall be voluntarily made in connection with subsequent sales of Lock-Up Securities acquired in such open market transactions; (b) transfers of Lock-Up Securities (i) as a bona fide gift, by will or intestacy, (ii) by operation of law, such as pursuant to a qualified domestic order or as required by a divorce settlement, or (iii) to a family member or trust for the benefit of a family member (for purposes hereof, “family member” means any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin); (c) transfers of Lock-Up Securities to a charity or educational institution; or (d) if the holder, directly or indirectly, controls a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity, any transfers of Lock-Up Securities to any shareholder, partner or member of, or owner of similar equity interests in, the undersigned, as the case may be; provided that in the case of any transfer pursuant to the foregoing clauses (b), (c) or (d), (i) any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (ii) each transferee shall sign and deliver to the Underwriter a lock-up agreement substantially in the form of this lock-up agreement and (ii) no filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act shall be required or shall be voluntarily made.

We have agreed not to offer; pledge; announce the intention to sell; sell; contract to sell; sell any option or contract to purchase; purchase any option or contract to sell; grant any option, right, or warrant to purchase; or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Shares or enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of our Shares, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter, for a period of 180 days from the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

We have not taken any action to permit a public offering of our Class A Ordinary Shares outside the United States or to permit the possession or distribution of this prospectus outside the United States. People outside the United States who come into possession of this prospectus must inform themselves about and observe any restrictions relating to this Offering of our Class A Ordinary Shares and the distribution of this prospectus outside the United States.

We have agreed to indemnify the Underwriter and its affiliates against liabilities relating to the Offering arising under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and to contribute to payments that the Underwriter may be required to make for these liabilities.

We intend to list our Class A Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “TGHL.” We will not consummate this Offering without a listing approval letter from the Nasdaq Capital Market.

A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on websites or through other online services maintained by the Underwriter or selling group members, if any, or by their affiliates, and the Underwriter may distribute prospectus electronically. The Underwriter may agree to allocate a number of Class A Ordinary Shares to selling group members for sale to its online brokerage account holders. The Class A Ordinary Shares to be sold pursuant to Internet distributions will be allocated on the same basis as other allocations. Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on, or that can be accessed through, these websites and any information contained in any other website maintained by these entities is not part of, and is not incorporated by reference into, this prospectus or the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, has not been approved and/or endorsed by us or the Underwriter, and it should not be relied upon by investors.

In connection with this Offering, certain of the underwriters or securities dealers may distribute prospectuses by electronic means, such as e-mail.

Any underwriter who is a qualified market maker on Nasdaq may engage in passive market making transactions on Nasdaq, in accordance with Rule 103 of Regulation M under the Exchange Act, during a period before the commencement of offers or sales of the Class A Ordinary Shares and extending through the completion of the distribution. Passive market makers must comply with applicable volume and price limitations and must be identified as a passive market maker. In general, a passive market maker must display its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid for such security. If all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker’s bid, however, the passive market maker’s bid must then be lowered when certain purchase limits are exceeded.

The Underwriter and its affiliates may, from time to time, engage in transactions with and perform services for us in the ordinary course of their business for which they may receive customary fees and reimbursement of expenses. In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the Underwriter and its affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own accounts and for the accounts of their customers, and such investment and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of our Company. The Underwriter and its affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect to such securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

Until the distribution of the Class A Ordinary Shares offered by this prospectus is completed, rules of the SEC may limit the ability of the Underwriter to bid for and to purchase our Class A Ordinary Shares. As an exception to these rules, the Underwriter may engage in transactions effected in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act that are intended to stabilize, maintain, or otherwise affect the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares. The Underwriter may engage in over-allotment sales, syndicate-covering transactions, stabilizing transactions, and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M.

Stabilization, syndicate-covering transactions, and penalty bids may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares or preventing or delaying a decline in the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares. As a result, the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market.

Neither we nor the Underwriter make any representation or prediction as to the effect that the transactions described above may have on the prices of our Class A Ordinary Shares. These transactions may occur on Nasdaq or on any trading market. If any of these transactions are commenced, they may be discontinued without notice at any time.

Other than in the United States, no action has been taken by us or the Underwriter that would permit a public offering of the Class A Ordinary Shares offered by this prospectus in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required. The Class A Ordinary Shares offered by this prospectus may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, nor may this prospectus or any other Offering material or advertisements in connection with the offer and sale of any such shares be distributed or published in any jurisdiction, except under circumstances that will result in compliance with the applicable rules and regulations of that jurisdiction. Persons into whose possession this prospectus comes are advised to inform themselves about and to observe any restrictions relating to the Offering and the distribution of this prospectus. This prospectus does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any Class A Ordinary Shares offered by this prospectus in any jurisdiction in which such an offer or a solicitation is unlawful.

The consolidated financial statements of The GrowHub Limited as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and for the years then ended, have been audited by Audit Alliance LLP, located at No.10 Anson Road, #20-16, International Plaza, Singapore, International Plaza 079903, Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, as set forth in their report elsewhere herein. Such consolidated financial statements have been so included in reliance upon such report given upon the authority of such firm as experts in accounting and auditing.

We are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. Service of process upon us and upon our directors and officers, many of whom reside outside of the United States, may be difficult to obtain within the United States. Furthermore, because substantially all of our assets and substantially all of our directors and officers are located outside the United States, any judgment obtained in the United States against us or any of our directors and officers may be difficult to collect within the United States.

[We have irrevocably appointed Cogency Global Inc. as our agent to receive service of process in any action against us in any U.S. federal or state court arising out of this Offering or any purchase or sale of securities in connection with this Offering. The address of our agent is 122 East 42^nd Street, 18^th Floor, New York, NY 10168.]

Harney Westwood & Riegels Singapore LLP (“Harneys”), our counsel as to Cayman Islands law, has advised us that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the Cayman Islands would (1) recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained against us or our directors or officers that are predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or the securities laws of any state in the United States, or (2) entertain original actions brought in the Cayman Islands against us or our directors or officers that are predicated upon the federal securities laws of the United States or the securities laws of any state in the United States.

Harneys has informed us that although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the federal or state courts of the United States (and the Cayman Islands are not a party to any treaties for the reciprocal enforcement or recognition of such judgments), a judgment obtained in such jurisdiction will be recognized and enforced in the courts of the Cayman Islands at common law, without any re-examination of the merits of the underlying dispute, by an action commenced on the foreign judgment debt in the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands, provided such judgment (i) is given by a foreign court of competent jurisdiction; (ii) imposes on the judgment debtor (a liability to pay a liquidated sum for which the judgment has been given); (iii) is final; (iv) is not in respect of taxes, a fine or a penalty; and (v) was not obtained by fraud and is not of a kind the enforcement of which is contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands. However, the Cayman Islands courts are unlikely to enforce a judgment obtained from the U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities law if such judgment is determined by the courts of the Cayman Islands to give rise to obligations to make payments that are penal or punitive in nature. Because such a determination has not yet been made by a court of the Cayman Islands, it is uncertain whether such civil liability judgments from U.S. courts would be enforceable in the Cayman Islands. Subject to the above limitations, in appropriate circumstances, a Cayman Islands court may give effect in the Cayman Islands to other kinds of final foreign judgments such as declaratory orders, orders for performance of contracts and injunctions.

Also, our principal executive offices and substantially all of our assets are located in Singapore. In addition, most of our directors and officers are nationals or residents of Singapore and all or a substantial portion of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon us or these persons, or to enforce against us or them judgments obtained in United States courts, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States.

An investor may or may not be able to commence an original action against us or our directors or officers, or any person, before the courts outside the United States to enforce liabilities under United States federal securities laws, depending on the nature of the action.

Our Singapore counsel, Drew & Napier LLC, has further advised us that it is possible that the Singapore courts may not (i) recognize and enforce judgments of courts in the United States, based upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state or territory of the United States; or (ii) enter judgments in original actions brought in the Singapore courts based solely on the civil liability provisions of these securities laws. An in personam final and conclusive judgment (that is, in general, a judgment that makes a final determination of rights between the parties and cannot be re-opened or altered by the court that delivered it, or be overridden by another body not being an appellate or supervisory body, although it may be subject to an appeal) in the federal or state courts of the United States (provided that it has jurisdiction over the parties subject to such judgment) under which a fixed or ascertainable sum of money is payable may generally be enforced as a debt in the Singapore courts. However, the Singapore courts are unlikely to enforce a foreign judgment if (a) the foreign judgment is inconsistent with a prior local judgment or earlier foreign judgement recognized in Singapore that is binding on the same parties; (b) the enforcement of the foreign judgment would contravene the public policy of Singapore; (c) the proceedings in which the foreign judgment was obtained were contrary to principles of natural justice; (d) the foreign judgment was obtained by fraud; or (e) the enforcement of the foreign judgment amounts to the direct or indirect enforcement of a foreign penal, revenue or other public law.

In particular, the Singapore courts may potentially not allow the recognition or enforcement of any foreign judgment for a sum payable in respect of taxes, fines, penalties or other similar charges, including the judgments of courts in the United States based upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state or territory of the United States. In respect of civil liability provisions of the United States federal and state securities law which permit punitive or penal damages against us and our Directors and/or our Executive Officers, we are unaware of any reported decision by the Singapore courts which has considered the specific issue of whether a judgment of a United States court based on such civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state or territory of the United States is recognizable or enforceable in Singapore.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of The GrowHub Limited and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023, and 2022, and the related statements of operations and comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two years period ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two-years in the period ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficit of S$2,659,829 and S$2,467,438, respectively as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. The Company has incurred recurring losses and sustained a net loss of S$1,796,344 and S$1,928,069, and a cash outflow from operating activities of S$1,141,746 and S$1,163,948 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might become necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying notes form an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

THE GROWHUB LIMITED (the “Company”) is an investment holding company incorporated on April 12, 2024. The Company through its subsidiaries provide product traceability, data analytics, and product trading facilitation.

The Company operates at the intersection of technology and supply chain management, focusing on enhancing product traceability and authenticity while prioritizing innovation and sustainability. The business comprises of two main divisions, the GrowHub Platform and product trading facilitation, and the Company is preparing for the launch of third division, the GrowHub Innovation Centre, and expects to generate revenue by the end of the second quarter of 2025.

The GrowHub Platform, the flagship offering, leverages blockchain technology hosted on the Polygon network to revolutionize product tracing, offering traceability, anti-counterfeit, and carbon management solutions. The product trading division facilitates seamless placement of products in retail outlets and online channels, driving revenue growth and market expansion for partners. The GrowHub Innovation Centre anticipates to accommodate approximately 90 co-working membership accounts, signifies our commitment to collaboration with the Australian government and industry stakeholders, fostering research projects with commercialization potential to shape the future of the food industry. Through these initiatives, the Company aims to enhance transparency, efficiency, and sustainability across the food supply chain.

The Company will complete a reorganization of The Growhub Innovations Company Pte Ltd (S) under common control of its then existing shareholders, who collectively owned all the equity interests of The GrowHub Innovations Company Pte Ltd (S) prior to the reorganization. Prior to the re-organization, The GrowHub Innovations Company Pte Ltd (S) was directly and indirectly owned and controlled by Chan Choon Yew, Lester and the other existing shareholders with 48.41% and 51.59% beneficial ownership interest, respectively. As a result of certain share swaps and related issuances by and among, Chan Choon Yew, Lester and other existing shareholders, the Company, The GrowHub Innovations Company (BVI) Limited, and The GrowHub Innovations Company Pte Ltd (S) whereby The GrowHub Innovations Company Pte Ltd (S) ultimately became a wholly-owned subsidiary of The GrowHub Innovations Company (BVI) Limited, and The GrowHub Innovations Company (BVI) Limited became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and Chan Choon Yew, Lester (directly and indirectly) and the other existing shareholders became the beneficial owners of the Company with percentage ownerships of 48.41% (representing 10,433,340 Class B shares) and 51.59% (representing 11,116,470 Class A shares), respectively. The Company has accounted for these re-organizations as a transfer of assets between entities under common control in accordance with ASC 805-50-50-3 to 4 because the economic interests of Chan Choon Yew, Lester and the other existing shareholders remained the same immediately before and immediately after the re-organization, as such, the accompanying financial statements include the results of operations of The Growhub Innovations Company Pte Ltd (S) for two operating periods in accordance with guidance set forth in ASC 805-50-45-2 to 5. The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis as if the reorganization became effective as of the beginning of the first period presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company.

The consolidated financial statements are prepared based on the basis that the reorganization has been accounted for as a business combination among entities under common control since the same controlling shareholders controlled all these entities before and after the reorganization. The consolidation of the Company and its subsidiaries has been accounted for at historical cost and prepared on the basis as if the aforementioned transactions had become effective as of the beginning of the first period presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Results of operations for the periods presented comprise those of the previously separate entities combined from the beginning of the period to the end of the period eliminating the effects of intra-entity transactions.

As of the date of this financial statement, the reorganization of the Company’s legal structure has not yet occurred.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the following entities:

This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s consolidated financial statements and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All transactions and balances among the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation.

On consolidation the entities should be combined for all periods that the relationship of common control started and the transaction would be treated as a capital transaction with any gain or loss on acquisition adjusted through equity. The consolidated entity would not recognize any goodwill and/or gain/losses from the acquisition and results of operations would be presented for all periods under common control.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company were prepared by applying the pooling of interest method. Accordingly, the results of the Company include the results of the subsidiaries for two-year period ended December 31, 2022 and 2023. Such manner of presentation reflects the economic substance of the companies, which were under common control throughout the relevant period, as a single economic enterprise, although the legal parent-subsidiary relationships were not established.

Non-controlling interests in the Company’s subsidiaries are recorded in accordance with the provisions of ASC 810 and are reported as a component of equity, separate from the parent’s equity. Purchase or sale of equity interests that do not result in a change of control are accounted for as equity transactions. Results of operations attributable to the non-controlling interest are included in our consolidated results of operations and, upon loss of control, the interest sold, as well as interest retained, if any, will be reported at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in earnings.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company incurred a net loss of S$1,796,344 (US$1,361,586). As of December 31, 2023, its current liabilities exceeded the current assets by S$4,790,983 (US$3,631,459) and the Company had an accumulated deficit of S$2,659,829 (US$2,016,092). These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the financial statements are issued. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the continuing financial support from its largest financial sponsor. Management believes that the Company will be able to negotiate with the largest financial sponsor for favorable concessions on payment terms, delay repayment period and payment due amount in the next 12 months. If there is no settlement of working capital loan on demand in the next 12 months, the Company will be able to bring down the working capital deficit to S$0.53 million (89% deduction from S$4.84 million) and S$0.91 million (82% deduction from S$4.97 million) for December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2023, respectively.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, professional service revenue estimated for various projects, the useful lives and impairment of long-lived assets, and collectability of accounts receivable and other current assets. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of bank deposits with original maturities of three months or less, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal and use. The Company maintains most of its bank accounts in Singapore.

Accounts receivable mainly represent amounts due from clients that meet the revenue recognition criteria. These accounts receivables are recorded net of any allowance for credit losses and specific customer credit allowances. The Company maintains an allowance for estimated credit losses inherent in its accounts receivable portfolio. In establishing the required allowance, management considers historical losses adjusted to take into account current market conditions and the Company’s customers’ financial condition, the receivable amount in dispute, and the current receivables aging and current payment patterns, over the contractual life of the receivable. Forward-looking information is also considered in the evaluation of current expected credit losses. The Company writes off the receivable when it is determined to be uncollectible.

Other current assets, net, primarily consists of deposits, prepayments made to vendors or services providers for future services that have not been provided and other receivables from third parties. These advances are unsecured and are reviewed periodically to determine whether their carrying value has become impaired. As of December 31, 2022 and 2023, management believes that the Company’s other current assets are not impaired.

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of inventories is based on the weighted average cost method, and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition.

Pursuant to ASC 340-10-S99-1, offering costs directly attributable to an offering of equity securities are deferred and would be charged against the gross proceeds of the offering as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. As of December 31, 2023, the Company has not concluded its IPO hence incurred professional fees are recorded as deferred offering costs. As of December 31, 2022 and 2023, the accumulated deferred offering cost was S$70,000 and S$175,575 (US$133,082), respectively.

On October 1, 2020, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02. Under this guidance, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease or contains a lease at inception, operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the discount rate for the lease at the commencement date. As the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable for the operating lease, the Company generally uses an incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date to determine the present value of future lease payments. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU assets”) assets represent the Company’s right to control the use of an identified asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets are generally recognized based on the amount of the initial measurement of the operating lease liabilities. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance to combine the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for operating lease associated with the Company’s office space lease, and to keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off the balance sheet and recognize the associated lease payments in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company has an operating lease for office and equipment, including an option to renew which is at the Company’s sole discretion. The renewal to extend the lease term is included in the Company’s ROU assets and operating lease liabilities as they are reasonably certain of exercise. The Company regularly evaluates the renewal option, and, when it is reasonably certain of exercise, the Company will include the renewal period in its lease term. New lease modifications result in re-measurement of the ROU assets and operating lease liabilities. The Company’s lease agreement does not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

The operating lease is included in operating lease right-of-use assets, operating lease liabilities-current and operating lease liabilities-non-current on the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company has elected to not recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less. Lease payments associated with these leases are expensed as incurred.

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment if applicable. The Company computes depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the consolidated statement of income. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, while additions renewals and betterments, which are expected to extend the useful life of assets, are capitalized. The Company also re-evaluates the periods of depreciation to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives.

The useful life of the intangible assets is assessed to be finite. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life as follows:

The Company acquired the Peel partnership right which is further elaborated upon in Note 6. This serves as a strategic investment vehicle for the Company’s future growth.

The software cost is primarily attributable to the GrowHub Platform, a traceability blockchain technology solution. The GrowHub Platform stands as the cornerstone of the Company’s operations, serving as the main business and flagship offering. Costs incurred in relation to individual projects are capitalized only when the future economic benefit of the project is probable and the following main conditions are met: (i) the development cost can be measured reliably, (ii) the technological feasibility of the product has been established and (iii) it is the intention of management to complete the intangible asset and use it.

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets (asset groups), including property and equipment and operating lease right-of-use assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of its asset (asset group) may not be fully recoverable. When these events occur, the Company measures impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset (asset group) and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset (asset group), the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset (asset group) over their fair value. Fair value is generally determined by discounting the cash flows expected to be generated by the asset (asset group), when the market prices are not readily available. The adjusted carrying amount of the asset is the new cost basis and is depreciated over the asset’s remaining useful life. Long-lived assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. As of December 31, 2022 and 2023, no impairment of long-lived assets was observed and recognized.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in pricing the asset or liability. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, amount due from a related party, other current assets, accounts payable, accruals and other current liabilities, and working capital loan from a related party approximate their fair values because of their generally short maturities.

The Company accounts for its revenue under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The five-step model defined by ASC Topic 606 requires the Company to:

(4) allocate the transaction prices to its performance obligations in those contracts; and

(5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation under those contracts is satisfied.

Professional service revenue is generated through one-time or non-recurring projects with existing or new customers. Consultancy advisory services include feasibility studies and proposal of technology solutions that enhance the customers’ distribution networks and outreach of their products or services in Asia. Other projects include customized development works for specific needs of the clients, AI-based data analytics and market intelligence. A written service agreement detailing the scope of consultancy advisory services, defined milestones, performance obligations delivery, contractual value, and payment terms, is signed by both customer and the Company (service provider) prior to the commencement of the project. The service revenue contract is priced at a fixed fee rate for each performance obligation. The chargeable fee is based on a competitive market rate for a similar service offer. The revenue is recognized upon achieving the agreed project milestones and fulfilling the contractual obligations.

Platform subscription revenue is generated from the Company’s proprietary Web3 enabled cloud-based platform that offers users access to the platform for traceability and data analytics across the entire value chain. A written software subscription service agreement detailing the extent of access rights granted, duration of the access, contractual value, and payment terms, is signed by both customer and the Company (SaaS provider). The subscription revenue contract is priced at per user login. Under this per-active user pricing model, customers pay a predetermined fee for each login user who actively uses the Company’s SaaS product within a defined period, typically monthly or annually. The SaaS revenue is recognized ratably over the agreed subscription period.

Transaction-based revenue is generated through delivery of identified goods to customers at the agreed price. The Company acts as a pass-through and therefore minimizes the risk of inventory. Customers place orders via the Company’s in-house ecommerce platform or external ecommerce marketplaces. Upon successful delivery of non-defective goods and acceptance of the goods in the original state with no demand of refund or good return by the customer, revenue is recognized.

ASC 280, “Segment Reporting”, establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organizational structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major clients in financial statements for detailing the Company’s business segments. Based on the criteria established by ASC 280, the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews consolidated results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Company. As a result of the assessment made by the CODM, the Company has only one reportable segment. The Company does not distinguish between markets or segments for the purpose of internal reporting.

The Company maintains cash with banks in Singapore. Should any bank holding cash become insolvent, or if the Company is otherwise unable to withdraw funds, the Company would lose the cash with that bank; however, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts. In Singapore, a depositor has up to S$75,000 insured by Singapore Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to the concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company has designed their credit policies with an objective to minimize their exposure to credit risk. The Company’s accounts receivable is short term in nature and the associated risk is minimal. The Company conducts credit evaluations of its clients and generally does not require collateral or other security. The Company periodically evaluates the creditworthiness of the existing clients in determining the allowance for expected credit loss primarily based upon the age of the receivables and factors surrounding the credit risk of specific clients.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, Customer A and B accounted for 66.4% and 7.7% of the Company’s total revenue and 0% and 81.0% of the Company’s total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2022, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2023, Customer C and D accounted for 58.6% and 18.1% of the Company’s total revenue and 0% and 44.7% of the total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2023, respectively.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, Vendor A and B accounted for 62.7% and 12.2% of the Company’s total purchases, and 60.8% and 8.1% of the accounts payable as of December 31, 2022, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2023, Vendor A and C accounted for 63.8% and 6.2% of the Company’s total purchases, and 98.8% and 0.5% of the accounts payable as of December 31, 2023, respectively.

Employee benefits are recognized as an expense, unless the cost qualifies to be capitalized as an asset.

Defined contribution plans are post-employment benefit plans under which the Company pays fixed contributions into separate entities such as the Central Provident Fund on a mandatory, contractual or voluntary basis. The Company has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid.

The Company follows ASC 850 Related Party Disclosures for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in Singapore Dollars (“S$”), which is the reporting currency of the Company. The functional currencies of the Company are the Singapore Dollar, United State Dollars, Australian Dollars, Malaysia Ringgit and Japanese Yen.

Translations of the consolidated balance sheet, consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income and consolidated statements of cash flows from S$ into US$ as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023 are solely for the convenience of the reader and were calculated at the rate of US$ 0.7580 = S$1, as set forth in the statistical release of the Federal Reserve System on December 31, 2023. No representation is made that the SGD amounts could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into US$ at that rate on December 31, 2023, or at any other rate.

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets are also provided for net operating loss carryforwards that can be utilized to offset future taxable income.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period including the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established, when necessary, to reduce net deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.

The provisions of FASB ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” prescribe a more-likely-than-not threshold for consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and related disclosures.

The Company did not accrue any liability, interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions in its provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023. The Company does not expect that its assessment regarding unrecognized tax positions will materially change over the next 12 months.

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options, warrants and convertible debt were exercised or converted into ordinary shares. When the Company has a loss, diluted shares are not included as their effect would be anti-dilutive. The Company has no dilutive securities or debt for each of the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023.

The Company is an “emerging growth company” (“EGC”) as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, EGC can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Company made the election to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards. As result of the election, the Company’s financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326)”, which significantly changes the way entities recognize impairment of many financial assets by requiring immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over their remaining life, instead of when incurred. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses”, which amends Subtopic 326-20 (created by ASU No.2016-13) to explicitly state that operating lease receivables are not in the scope of Subtopic 326-20. Additionally, in April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No.2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments”, in May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief”, and in November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates”, and ASU No. 2019-11, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses”, to provide further clarifications on certain aspects of ASU No. 2016-13 and to extend the nonpublic entity effective date of ASU No. 2016-13. The changes (as amended) are effective for the Company for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. We adopted the ASU on January 1, 2023 and will apply the guidance prospectively.

In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-10, “Codification Improvements to Subtopic 205-10, presentation of financial statements”. The amendments in this Update improve the codification by ensuring that all guidance that requires or provides an option for an entity to provide information in the notes to financial statements is codified in the disclosure section of the codification that reduce the likelihood that the disclosure requirements would be missed. The amendments also clarify guidance so that an entity can apply the guidance more consistently. Early application of the amendments is permitted for any annual or interim period which financial statements are available to be issued. The amendments in this Update should be applied retrospectively. An entity should apply the amendments at the beginning of the period that includes the adoption date. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company.

Except as mentioned above, the Group does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and comprehensive income and cash flows.

Intangible assets include software and acquisition cost paid for the partnership rights as a strategic partner of The Shire of Murray (“Peel partnership right”).

An Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”) was signed between the Company and Fund Singapore Pte Ltd (a fund equity firm that engage in the business of crowdfunding), with an initial consideration of S$2.5 million in January 2020. The original settlement schedule was pegged to the Company’s ability to meet certain conditions precedent; such as raising equity fund target and meeting net profit target within specific timeframe.

An Addendum was signed in October 2021 with a reduced consideration amount of S$1.99 million. The Company was pursuing its IPO exercise at the point in time and required a longer timeframe to meet all the conditions precedent stated in the APA. Both parties mutually agreed on the reduced consideration amount and released all parties from the contractual obligations under the original APA.

Upon acquisition of this Peel partnership right, The Shire of Murray signed an initial 5-year lease agreement with GrowHub Innovation Centre Pty Ltd (subsidiary of the Company) in February 2023. The lease terms were as follows:

The right-of-use asset arising from this Lease has been recognized in Note 7 and the corresponding lease liability has been recognized in Note 7.

The acquisition of this Peel partnership right enables the Company to operate as a main lessor and commercialization partner for the management of the GrowHub Innovation Centre. The Company will be able to showcase its technology working models to the various key stakeholders, including governments and technology partners via the GrowHub Innovation Centre residing within the building when complete at the lease site, which will bear testimony to the technology developments and prowess of The GrowHub to the international markets.

The intangible assets are initially capitalized at cost which includes the purchase price (net of any discounts and rebates) and other directly attributable costs of preparing the asset for its intended use. Direct expenditure which enhances or extends the performance of the intangible assets beyond its specifications, and which can be reliably measured, is added to the original cost of the intangible assets. Costs associated with maintaining the intangible assets are recognized as an expense when incurred. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.

Amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2023 were S$9,500 and S$48,795 (US$36,986), respectively.

The Company plans to commence the GrowHub Innovation Centre in Australia after the IPO launch. As GrowHub Innovation Centre has not begun any income generating activity during these financial periods, there is no amortization incurred for the asset.

The Company determines if a contract contains a lease at inception. US GAAP requires that the Company’s leases be evaluated and classified as operating or finance leases for financial reporting purposes. The classification evaluation begins at the commencement date and the lease term used in the evaluation includes the non-cancellable period for which the Company has the right to use the underlying asset, together with renewal option periods when the exercise of the renewal option is reasonably certain and failure to exercise such option which results in an economic penalty.

The Company has 2 office premises and 1 office equipment lease agreements with lease terms ranging from 2 to 10 years, respectively. One of the office premises was renewed during the year for a further 5 months and accordingly accounted for as a lease modification. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02, no right-of-use (“ROU”) assets nor lease liability was recorded for the lease with a lease term of one year.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had the following non-cancellable lease contracts:

(b) A summary of lease cost recognized in the Group’s consolidated statements of operations is as follows:

UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF CHANGES IN SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

The accompanying notes form an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

The Growhub Limited (the “Company”) is an investment holding company incorporated on April 12, 2024. The Company through its subsidiaries provide product traceability, data analytics, and product trading facilitation.

The Company will complete a reorganization of The Growhub Innovations Company Pte Ltd (S) under common control of its then existing shareholders, who collectively owned all the equity interests of The GrowHub Innovations Company Pte Ltd (S) prior to the reorganization. Prior to the re-organization, The GrowHub Innovations Company Pte Ltd (S) was directly and indirectly owned and controlled by Chan Choon Yew, Lester and the other existing shareholders with 48.41% and 51.59% beneficial ownership interest, respectively. As a result of certain share swaps and related issuances by and among, Chan Choon Yew, Lester and other existing shareholders, the Company, The GrowHub Innovations Company (BVI) Limited, and The GrowHub Innovations Company Pte Ltd (S) whereby The GrowHub Innovations Company Pte Ltd (S) ultimately became a wholly-owned subsidiary of The GrowHub Innovations Company (BVI) Limited, and The GrowHub Innovations Company (BVI) Limited became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and Chan Choon Yew, Lester (directly and indirectly) and the other existing shareholders became the beneficial owners of the Company with percentage ownerships of 48.41% (representing 10,433,340 Class B shares) and 51.59% (representing 11,116,470 Class A shares), respectively. The Company has accounted for these re-organizations as a transfer of assets between entities under common control in accordance with ASC 805-50-50-3 to 4 because the economic interests of Chan Choon Yew, Lester and the other existing shareholders remained the same immediately before and immediately after the re-organization, as such, the accompanying financial statements include the results of operations of The Growhub Innovations Company Pte Ltd (S) for two operating periods in accordance with guidance set forth in ASC 805-50-45-2 to 5. The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis as if the reorganization became effective as of the beginning of the first period presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company.

The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis that the reorganization has been accounted for as a business combination among entities under common control since the same controlling shareholders controlled all these entities before and after the reorganization. The consolidation of the Company and its subsidiaries has been accounted for at historical cost and prepared on the basis as if the aforementioned transactions had become effective as of the beginning of the first period presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Results of operations for the periods presented comprise those of the previously separate entities combined from the beginning of the period to the end of the period eliminating the effects of intra-entity transactions.

As of the date of this financial statement, the reorganization of the Company’s legal structure has not yet occurred.

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the following entities:

This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All transactions and balances among the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation.

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company were prepared by applying the pooling of interest method. Accordingly, the results of the Company include the results of the subsidiaries for six months period ended June 30, 2023 and 2024. Such manner of presentation reflects the economic substance of the companies, which were under common control throughout the relevant period, as a single economic enterprise, although the legal parent-subsidiary relationships were not established.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company incurred a net loss of S$784,024 (US$578,530). As of June 30, 2024, its current liabilities exceeded the current assets by S$2,890,259 (US$2,132,718) and the Company had an accumulated deficit of S$5,165,822 (US$3,811,852). These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the financial statements are issued. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the continuing financial support from its largest financial sponsor. Management believes that the Company will be able to negotiate with the largest financial sponsor for favorable concessions on payment terms, delay repayment period and payment due amount in the next 12 months. If there is no settlement of working capital loan on demand in the next 12 months, the Company will be able to bring down the working capital deficit to S$0.18 million (95% deduction from S$3.68 million) for June 30, 2024.

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, professional service revenue estimated for various projects, the useful lives and impairment of long-lived assets, provision for stock obsolescence and collectability of accounts receivable and other current assets. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Other current assets, net, primarily consists of deposits, prepayments made to vendors or services providers for future services that have not been provided and other receivables from third parties. These advances are unsecured and are reviewed periodically to determine whether their carrying value has become impaired. As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, management believes that the Company’s other current assets are not impaired.

Pursuant to ASC 340-10-S99-1, offering costs directly attributable to an offering of equity securities are deferred and would be charged against the gross proceeds of the offering as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has not concluded its IPO hence incurred professional fees are recorded as deferred offering costs. As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, the accumulated deferred offering cost was S$175,575 and S$791,977 (US$584,399), respectively.

The operating lease is included in operating lease right-of-use assets, operating lease liabilities-current and operating lease liabilities-non-current on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the condensed consolidated statement of income. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, while additions renewals and betterments, which are expected to extend the useful life of assets, are capitalized. The Company also re-evaluates the periods of depreciation to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives.

The useful life of the intangible assets is assessed to be finite. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life as follows:

The Company acquired the Peel partnership right which is further elaborated upon in Note 6. This serves as a strategic investment vehicle for the Company’s future growth.

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets (asset groups), including property and equipment and operating lease right-of-use assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of its asset (asset group) may not be fully recoverable. When these events occur, the Company measures impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset (asset group) and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset (asset group), the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset (asset group) over their fair value. Fair value is generally determined by discounting the cash flows expected to be generated by the asset (asset group), when the market prices are not readily available. The adjusted carrying amount of the asset is the new cost basis and is depreciated over the asset’s remaining useful life. Long-lived assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, no impairment of long-lived assets was observed and recognized.

The Company accounts for its revenue under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The five-step model defined by ASC Topic 606 requires the Company to:

(4) allocate the transaction prices to its performance obligations in those contracts; and

(5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation under those contracts is satisfied.

Professional service revenue is generated through one-time or non-recurring projects with existing or new customers. Consultancy advisory services include feasibility studies and proposal of technology solutions that enhance the customers’ distribution networks and outreach of their products or services in Asia. Other projects include customized development works for specific needs of the clients, AI-based data analytics and market intelligence. A written service agreement detailing the scope of consultancy advisory services, defined milestones, performance obligations delivery, contractual value, and payment terms, is signed by both customer and the Company (service provider) prior to the commencement of the project. The service revenue contract is priced at a fixed fee rate for each performance obligation. The chargeable fee is based on a competitive market rate for a similar service offer. The revenue is recognized upon achieving the agreed project milestones and fulfilling the contractual obligations.

Platform subscription revenue is generated from the Company’s proprietary Web3 enabled cloud-based platform that offers users access to the platform for traceability and data analytics across the entire value chain. A written software subscription service agreement detailing the extent of access rights granted, duration of the access, contractual value, and payment terms, is signed by both customer and the Company (SaaS provider). The subscription revenue contract is priced at per user login. Under this per-active user pricing model, customers pay a predetermined fee for each login user who actively uses the Company’s SaaS product within a defined period, typically monthly or annually. The SaaS revenue is recognized ratably over the agreed subscription period.

The Company maintains cash with banks in Singapore. Should any bank holding cash become insolvent, or if the Company is otherwise unable to withdraw funds, the Company would lose the cash with that bank; however, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts. In Singapore, a depositor has up to S$100,000 insured by Singapore Deposit Insurance Corporation.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in Singapore Dollars (“S$ ”), which is the reporting currency of the Company. The functional currencies of the Company are the Singapore Dollar, United State Dollars, Australian Dollars, Malaysia Ringgit and Japanese Yen.

Translations of the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet, unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss and unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows from S$ into US$ as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2024 are solely for the convenience of the reader and were calculated at the rate of US$0.7379 = S$1, as set forth in the statistical release of the Federal Reserve System on June 30, 2024. No representation is made that the SGD amounts could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into US$ at that rate on June 30, 2024, or at any other rate.

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the condensed consolidated financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets are also provided for net operating loss carryforwards that can be utilized to offset future taxable income.

The provisions of FASB ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” prescribe a more-likely-than-not threshold for condensed consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and related disclosures.

The Company did not accrue any liability, interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions in its provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2024. The Company does not expect that its assessment regarding unrecognized tax positions will materially change over the next 12 months.

The Company is an “emerging growth company” (“EGC”) as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, EGC can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Company made the election to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards. As result of the election, the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

In July 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses, The amendments in ASU 2023-07 improve financial reporting by requiring disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis for all public entities to enable investors to develop more decision-useful financial analyses. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance to enhance transparency of income tax disclosures, On an annual basis the new guidance requires a public entity to disclose: (1) specific categories in the rate reconciliation, (2) additional information for reconciling items that are equal to or greater than 5% of the amount computed by multiplying income(or loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (or benefit) by the applicable statutory income tax rate, (3) income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by federal (national), state, and foreign taxes, with foreign taxes disaggregated by individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid is equal to or greater than 5% of total income taxes paid, (4) income (or loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (or benefit)disaggregated between domestic and foreign, and (5) income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations disaggregated between federal (national), state and foreign. The guidance is effective for fiscal year 2025 annual reporting, with early adoption permitted, to be applied on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this accounting standard to have an impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements but will require certain additional disclosures.

Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s articles of association may provide indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to the public interest, such as providing indemnification against wilful default, fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. Our articles of association provide that each officer or director of the registrant shall be indemnified out of the assets of the registrant from and against all actions, costs, charges, losses, damages and expenses which they or any of them, shall or may incur or sustain by or by reason of any act done, concurred in or omitted in or about the execution of their duty, or supposed duty, in their respective offices or trust unless such actions, costs, charges, losses, damages and expenses arise from wilful default, wilful neglect or fraud which may attach to such directors or officers.

	●	discrepancies between our actual operating results and those expected by investors and securities analysts.

	●	Our Directors or executive officers may have conflicts of interest. Mr. Chan Choon Yew Lester is also the Company’s CEO, and Chairman of the Board of Directors and Director.

	●	Sale of Ordinary Shares or assets in our Company. Upon expiration of the lock-up agreements that will be signed with the Underwriter pursuant to our initial public offering and subject to certain restrictions under relevant securities laws and stock exchange rules, as well as other relevant restrictions, our Controlling Shareholder may decide to sell all or a portion of our Ordinary Shares that they hold to a third party, thereby giving that third party substantial influence over our business and our affairs. In addition, our Controlling Shareholder may decide to sell all or a portion of our Shares in the event of default of our Controlling Shareholder under any applicable debt or other obligations or otherwise becomes insolvent. Such a sale of our Shares or our assets could be contrary to the interests of our employees or our other shareholders. In addition, our Controlling Shareholder may also discourage, delay, or prevent a change in control of our Company, which could deprive our shareholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their Shares as part of a sale of our Company and might reduce the price of our Shares.

	●	limit our ability to pay dividends or require us to seek consents for the payment of dividends;

	●	increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;

	●	limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and our industry.

	●	a limited availability of market quotations for our Class A Ordinary Shares;

	●	reduced liquidity for our Class A Ordinary Shares;

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

	●	a limited amount of news about us and analyst coverage of us; and

	●	a decreased ability for us to issue additional equity securities or obtain additional equity or debt financing in the future.
