6,250,000 Ordinary Shares

Uptrend Holdings Limited

This is the initial public offering of the ordinary shares (“IPO”), par value US$0.0001 per share (“Ordinary Shares” or “Shares”), of Uptrend Holdings Limited (“UPT”), an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, whose subsidiaries are established in Hong Kong and the British Virgin Islands. We are offering 6,250,000 Ordinary Shares of UPT, representing 31.6% of the Ordinary Shares following completion of the offering of UPT. Immediately following this offering, approximately 31.6% of the Ordinary Shares will be held by public shareholders participating in the offering, assuming the Underwriters do not exercise the Over-Allotment Option.

Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our Ordinary Shares. The offering price of the Ordinary Shares in this offering is expected to be between $4.00 and $5.00 per share. We intend to apply to list the Ordinary Shares on the NYSE American under the symbol “[UPX]”. NYSE American’s final approval of our listing application is a condition to the offering. There is no assurance that such application will be approved, and if our application is not approved, this offering may not be completed.

Investors are cautioned that you are buying shares of a Cayman Islands holding company with operations in Hong Kong by its Operating Subsidiary.

UPT is a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with no material operations of its own, and we conduct our operations primarily in Hong Kong through our Operating Subsidiary (as defined below). References to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” in the prospectus are to UPT, the Cayman Islands entity that will issue the Ordinary Shares being offered. This is an offering of the Ordinary Shares of UPT, the Cayman Islands holding company, and not of the shares of the Operating Subsidiary. Investors in this offering may never directly hold any equity interests in the Operating Subsidiary.

Investing in the Ordinary Shares is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Before buying any Ordinary Shares, you should carefully read the discussion of material risks of investing in the Ordinary Shares in “Risk Factors” beginning on page 19 of this prospectus.

Our operations are primarily located in Hong Kong, a Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (“China” or the “PRC”), with its own governmental and legal system that is independent from mainland China and has its own distinct rules and regulations. Due to long-arm provisions under the current PRC laws and regulations, there remains regulatory uncertainty with respect to the implementation and interpretation of laws in China. We are subject to the risks of uncertainty about any future actions of the PRC government or authorities in Hong Kong in this regard. We may also be subject to unique risks due to the uncertainty of the interpretation and application of PRC laws and regulations.

We do not have any operations in mainland China and currently do not have or intend to have any operating subsidiary established in mainland China or any contractual arrangement to establish a variable interest entity (“VIE”) structure with any entity in mainland China, but because all of our operations are conducted in Hong Kong through our wholly-owned Operating Subsidiary, and Hong Kong is a Special Administrative Region of China. Should the PRC government choose to exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business, they may intervene in or influence our operations. Such governmental actions:

•        could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our securities;

•        could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to continue our operations;

•        could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer our securities to investors; and

•        may cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or be worthless.

The legal and operational risks associated in operating in the PRC also apply to the Operating Subsidiary’s operations in Hong Kong, and we face the risks and uncertainties associated with the complex and evolving PRC laws and regulations and as to whether and how the recent PRC government statements and regulatory developments, such

as those relating to data and cyberspace security, and anti-monopoly concerns, would be applicable to the Operating Subsidiary and us, given the substantial operations of the Operating Subsidiary in Hong Kong and the possibilities that Chinese government may exercise significant oversight over the conduct of business in Hong Kong. In the event that the Operating Subsidiary is to become subject to laws and regulations of the PRC, these risks could result in material costs to ensure compliance, fines, material changes in our operations and/or the value of the securities we are registering for sale, and/or could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless. For example, if the recent regulatory actions of the PRC government on data security, anti-monopoly or other data-related laws and regulations were to apply to us and/or our subsidiaries, we and/or our subsidiaries could become subject to certain anti-monopoly, cybersecurity and data privacy obligations, including the potential requirement to conduct a cybersecurity review for our public offerings on a foreign stock exchange, and the failure to meet such obligations could result in penalties and other regulatory actions against us and/or our subsidiaries and may materially and adversely affect our subsidiaries’ business and our results of operations. We believe that we and the Operating Subsidiary is not currently required to obtain permission from or complete filing procedure with the PRC and/or Hong Kong government authorities to list on a U.S. securities exchange and consummate this offering, including the permission requirement or complete filing procedure for any data security or anti-monopoly concerns. However, there is no guarantee that this will continue to be the case in the future in relation to the continued listing of our securities on a securities exchange in the United States, or even when such permission is obtained or such filing is completed, it will not be subsequently denied or rescinded. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong — Our key operations are in Hong Kong, a Special Administrative Region of the PRC. According to the long-arm provisions under the current PRC laws and regulations, the PRC government may exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business and may intervene in or influence our operations at any time, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of the Ordinary Shares. The PRC government may intervene or impose restrictions on our ability to move money out of Hong Kong to distribute earnings and pay dividends or to reinvest in our business outside of Hong Kong. Changes in the policies, regulations, rules, and the enforcement of laws of the PRC government may also be quick with little advance notice and our assertions and beliefs of the risk imposed by the PRC legal and regulatory system cannot be certain.” on page 27; and “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong — If the PRC government chooses to extend the oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in mainland China-based issuers to Hong Kong-based issuers, such action may significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer Ordinary Shares to investors and cause the value of our Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or be worthless” on page 32.

We are aware that recently the PRC government has initiated a series of regulatory actions and new policies to regulate business operations in certain areas in China with little advance notice, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, enhancing supervision over China-based companies listed overseas using a variable interest entity (“VIE”) structure, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding the efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. See “Prospectus Summary — Recent Regulatory Development in the PRC” beginning on page 11.

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

On December 24, 2021, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”), together with other relevant government authorities in mainland China, issued the Provisions of the State Council on the Administration of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (Draft for Comments), and the Measures for the Filing of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (Draft for Comments) (“Draft Overseas Listing Regulations”). The Draft Overseas Listing Regulations require that a PRC domestic enterprise seeking to issue and list its shares overseas (“Overseas Issuance and Listing”) shall complete the filing procedures and submit the relevant information to CSRC. The Overseas Issuance and Listing includes direct and indirect issuance and listing. Where an

enterprise whose principal business activities are conducted in PRC seeks to issue and list its shares in the name of an overseas enterprise on the basis of the equity, assets, income, or other similar rights and interests of the relevant PRC domestic enterprise, such activities shall be deemed an indirect overseas issuance and listing under the Draft Overseas Listing Regulations.

On December 28, 2021, the Cyberspace Administration of China (the “CAC”), jointly with the relevant authorities, formally published Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021), which took effect on February 15, 2022, and replaced the former Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2020) issued on July 10, 2021. The Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021) stipulates that operators of critical information infrastructure purchasing network products and services, and online platform operators (together with the operators of critical information infrastructure, the (“Operators”) carrying out data processing activities that affect or may affect national security, shall conduct a cybersecurity review, and any online platform operator who controls more than one million users’ personal information must go through a cybersecurity review by the cybersecurity review office if it seeks to be listed in a foreign country.

On February 17, 2023, the CSRC released the Trial Measures for Administration of Overseas Securities Offerings and Listings by Domestic Companies and five interpretive guidelines (collectively, the “CSRC Filing Rules”), which came into effect on March 31, 2023. Under the CSRC Filing Rules, a filing based regulatory system shall be applied to “indirect overseas offerings and listings” of PRC domestic companies, which refers to securities offerings and listings in an overseas market made under the name of an offshore entity but based on the underlying equity, assets, earnings, or other similar rights of a domestic company that operates its main business domestically. The CSRC Filing Rules state that any post-listing follow-on offering by an issuer in the same overseas market, including issuance of shares, convertible notes, and other similar securities, shall be subject to filing requirement within three business days after the completion of the offering.

The Operating Subsidiary may collect and store certain data (including certain personal information) from our clients, who may be mainland China individuals, in connection with our business and operations and for “Know Your Customers” purposes (to combat money laundering). The Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021), PRC Data Security Law, the PRC Personal Information Protection Law, and the Draft Overseas Listing Regulations currently does not have an impact on our business, operations or this offering, nor are we or the Operating Subsidiary are covered by permission requirements from the CAC that is required to approve our Hong Kong subsidiaries’ operations and our offering, as our Hong Kong subsidiaries will not be deemed to be an “Operator” or a “data processor” that required to file for cybersecurity review before listing in the United States, because: (i) the Operating Subsidiary was incorporated in Hong Kong and operate only in Hong Kong without any subsidiary or VIE structure in mainland China and each of the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021), the Personal Information Protection Law and the Draft Overseas Listing Regulations does not clearly provide whether it shall be applied to a company based in Hong Kong; (ii) as of date of this prospectus, the Operating Subsidiary has in aggregate collected and stored personal information of far less than one million users; (iii) all of the data the Operating Subsidiary has collected is stored in servers located in Hong Kong, and we and the Operating Subsidiary do not place any reliance on collection and processing of any personal information to maintain our business operation; (iv) as of the date of this prospectus, our Operating Subsidiary has not been informed by any PRC governmental authority of any requirement that it files for a CSRC review, nor has received any inquiry, notice, warning, or sanction in such respect initiated by the CAC or related governmental regulatory authorities; and (v) data processed in our business should not have a bearing on national security nor affect or may affect national security, and we and the Operating Subsidiary have not been notified by any authorities of being classified as an Operator. Moreover, pursuant to the Basic Law, PRC laws and regulations shall not be applied in Hong Kong except for those listed in Annex III of the Basic Law (which is confined to laws relating to national defense, foreign affairs and other matters that are not within the scope of autonomy). Therefore, based on the PRC laws and regulations effective as of the date of this prospectus and subject to interpretations of these laws and regulations that may be adopted by mainland China authorities, neither we, nor the Operating Subsidiary in Hong Kong are currently required to obtain any permission or approval from the mainland China government authorities, including the CSRC and CAC, to operate our business or to offer the securities being registered to foreign investors. As of the date of this prospectus, neither we nor the Operating Subsidiary have ever applied for any such permission or approval.

However, given the uncertainties arising from the legal system in mainland China and Hong Kong, including uncertainties regarding the interpretation and enforcement of the PRC laws and regulations and the significant authority of the PRC government to intervene or influence the offshore holding company headquartered in Hong Kong, there

remains significant uncertainty in the interpretation and enforcement of Draft Overseas Listing Regulations, CSRC Filing Rules, PRC Personal Information Protection Law, relevant mainland China data privacy, cybersecurity laws and other regulations. Since the CSRC Filing Rules are newly promulgated, their interpretation, application and enforcement remain unclear and there also remains significant uncertainty as to the enactment, interpretation and implementation of other regulatory requirements related to overseas securities offerings and other capital markets activities. If the CSRC Filing Rules become applicable to us or the Operating Subsidiary in Hong Kong, if the Operating Subsidiary is deemed to be an “Operator”, or if the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021) or the PRC Personal Information Protection Law become applicable to the Operating Subsidiary in Hong Kong, the business operation of the Operating Subsidiary and the listing of our Ordinary Shares in the United States could be subject to the CAC’s cybersecurity review or the CSRC Overseas Issuance and Listing review in the future. While, we do not believe we are covered by the permission requirements from CSRC or CAC, investors of our company and our business may face potential uncertainty from actions taken by the PRC government affecting our business. If the applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change and the Operating Subsidiary become subject to the CAC or CSRC review, we cannot assure you that the Operating Subsidiary will be able to comply with the regulatory requirements in all respects and our current practice of collecting and processing personal information may be ordered to be rectified or terminated by regulatory authorities. If we were required to obtain such permissions or approvals in the future in connection with the listing or continued listing of our securities on a stock exchange outside of the PRC, it is uncertain how long it will take for us to obtain such approval, and, even if we obtain such approval, the approval could be rescinded. Any failure to obtain or a delay in obtaining the necessary permissions from the PRC authorities to conduct offerings or list outside of the PRC may subject us to sanctions imposed by the PRC regulatory authorities, which could include fines and penalties, proceedings against us, and other forms of sanctions, and our ability to conduct our business, invest into the mainland China as foreign investments or accept foreign investments, ability to offer or continue to offer Ordinary Shares to investors or list on the U.S. or other overseas exchange may be restricted, and the value of our Ordinary Shares may significantly decline or be worthless, our business, reputation, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong — If the PRC government chooses to extend the oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in mainland China-based issuers to Hong Kong-based issuers, such action may significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer Ordinary Shares to investors and cause the value of our Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or be worthless” on page 32.

The PRC government may intervene or influence our operations at any time and may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and foreign investment in Hong Kong-based issuers. The PRC government may also intervene or impose restrictions on our ability to move out of Hong Kong to distribute earnings and pay dividends or to reinvest in our business outside of Hong Kong. Furthermore, PRC regulatory authorities may in the future promulgate laws, regulations or implementing rules that require our company or any of our subsidiaries to obtain regulatory approval from PRC authorities before this offering. These actions could result in a material change in our operations and could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to complete this offering or cause the value of the Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or become worthless. See “Prospectus Summary — Recent Regulatory Developments in the PRC” beginning on page 11.

Furthermore, as more stringent criteria, including the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “HFCA Act”), have been recently imposed by the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”), recently, the Ordinary Shares may be prohibited from trading if our auditor cannot be fully inspected. Our auditor, WWC P.C., the independent registered public accounting firm that issues the audit report included in this prospectus, as an auditor of companies that are traded publicly in the United States and a firm registered with the PCAOB, is subject to laws in the United States pursuant to which the PCAOB conducts regular inspections to assess WWC P.C.’s compliance with applicable professional standards. WWC P.C. is headquartered in San Mateo, CA and can be inspected by the PCAOB. As of the date of this prospectus, our auditor is not subject to the determinations announced by the PCAOB on December 16, 2021, relating to the PCAOB’s inability to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China or Hong Kong because of a position taken by one or more authorities in the PRC or Hong Kong. On August 26, 2022, CSRC, the Ministry of Finance of the PRC (the “MOF”), and the PCAOB signed a Statement of Protocol (the “Protocol”), governing inspections and investigations of audit firms based in China and Hong Kong. The Protocol remains unpublished and is subject to further explanation and

implementation. Pursuant to the fact sheet with respect to the Protocol disclosed by the SEC, the PCAOB shall have independent discretion to select any issuer audits for inspection or investigation and has the unfettered ability to transfer information to the SEC. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB determined that the PCAOB was able to secure complete access to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate its previous determinations to the contrary. However, should PRC authorities obstruct or otherwise fail to facilitate the PCAOB’s access in the future, the PCAOB will consider the need to issue a new determination. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to The Shares — Although the audit report included in this prospectus is prepared by PCAOB registered auditor who are currently inspectable by the PCAOB, there is no guarantee that future audit reports will be prepared by auditors inspectable by the PCAOB and, as such, in the future investors may be deprived of the benefits of the PCAOB inspection program. Furthermore, trading in our securities may be prohibited under the HFCA Act if the SEC subsequently determines our audit work is performed by auditors that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely, and as a result, U.S. national securities exchanges, such as the NYSE American, may determine to delist our securities. Furthermore, on December 29, 2022, the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “AHFCAA”) was enacted, which amended the HFCA Act by requiring the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three, and thus reduced the time before the Ordinary Shares may be prohibited from trading or delisted” on page 33. We cannot assure you whether NYSE American or other regulatory authorities will apply additional or more stringent criteria to us. Such uncertainty could cause the market price of the Ordinary Shares to be materially and adversely affected.

Our management monitors the cash position of the Operating Subsidiary regularly and prepares budgets on a monthly basis to ensure it has the necessary funds to fulfil its obligations for the foreseeable future and to ensure adequate liquidity. In the event that there is a need for cash or a potential liquidity issue, it will be reported to our Chief Financial Officer and subject to approval by our board of directors (“Board of Directors”).

For UPT to transfer cash to its subsidiaries, UPT is permitted under the laws of the Cayman Islands and its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles (as defined below) to provide funding to our subsidiaries incorporated in the BVI (as defined below) and Hong Kong through loans or capital contributions. UPT’s subsidiary formed under the laws of the BVI is permitted under the laws of the BVI to provide funding to the Operating Subsidiary subject to certain restrictions set forth in the BVI Business Companies Act 2004 (as amended) and memorandum and articles of association of the relevant UPT’s subsidiary incorporated under the laws of the BVI. As a holding company, UPT may rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by its subsidiaries for its cash and financing requirements. According to the BVI Business Companies Act 2004 (as amended), a BVI company may make dividends distribution to the extent that immediately after the distribution, the value of the company’s assets exceeds its liabilities and that such company is able to pay its debts as they fall due. According to the Companies Ordinance of Hong Kong, a Hong Kong company may only make a distribution out of profits available for distribution. If any of UPT’s subsidiaries incur debt on their own behalf in the future, the instruments governing such debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends to UPT. During the six months ended September 30, 2025 and the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, UPT, UPT BVI, and UPT HK did not declare or pay any dividends and there was no transfer of assets among UPT and its subsidiaries. We do not have any current intentions to distribute further earnings. If we decide to pay dividends on any of the Ordinary Shares in the future, as a holding company, we will be dependent on receipt of funds from the Operating Subsidiary by way of dividend payments. See “Dividend Policy,” “Risk Factors — Risks Related to The Shares — We rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by the Operating Subsidiary to fund our cash and financing requirements, and any limitation on the ability of our subsidiaries to make payments to us could have a material adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business.” on page 38, and “Consolidated Statements of Change in Shareholders’ Equity in the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm” for further details.

We are an “emerging growth company” and a “foreign private issuer” as defined under the federal securities laws and, as such, will be subject to reduced public company reporting requirements. See “Prospectus Summary — Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company and a Foreign Private Issuer” for additional information.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

A significant portion of our revenue was generated from contracts awarded by a limited number of customers, and any significant decrease in the number of projects with our major customers, some of which are our related parties, may materially and adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.

During the six months ended September 30, 2025 and the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, a significant portion of our revenue was derived from a small number of customers. Our largest customers, which each contributed more than 10% of our revenue, accounted for approximately 92% of our total revenue during the six months ended September 30, 2025 and approximately 93% and 93% of our total revenue for the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. During the six months ended September 30, 2025, our largest customers consisted of four related parties, namely, Tung Lee-CCCC-FHDI Joint Venture, CR15G — TL (CV202402) Joint Venture, Build King-Tung Lee Joint Venture and Tung Lee Civil Engineering Limited and such related parties generated approximately 28%, 26%, 13% and 11% or our total revenue, respectively. For the year ended March 31, 2025, our largest customers consisted of three related parties, namely, Tung Lee Civil Engineering Limited, Tung Lee Engineering Development Limited and Tung Lee-CCCC-FHDI Joint Venture and such related parties generated approximately 19%, 16% and 29% of our total revenue, respectively. For the year ended March 31, 2024, our largest customers consisted of three related parties, namely, Tung Lee Engineering Co., Tung Lee Engineering Development Limited and Tung Lee-CCCC-FHDI Joint Venture and such related parties generated approximately 20%, 22% and 21% of our total revenue, respectively.

There is no assurance that we will continue to be awarded with contracts from our major customers, particularly our related parties, in the future. If there is a significant decrease in the number of projects awarded by our major customers, and we are unable to secure suitable projects of comparable size and quantity as replacements from other customers, our financial condition and operating results would be materially and adversely affected. In addition, in the event that our major customers experience any financial difficulties or cash flow problems, this may result in delay or default in payments to us, in which case our business could be materially and adversely affected.

Our business is subject to the risk of non-payment or delayed payment by our customers, including related parties, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We have significant contract receivable due from major customers, which includes our related party. During the six months ended September 30, 2025, our largest customers, each having contributed more than 10% of our revenue, accounted for an aggregate of approximately 96% of our contract receivables. For the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, our largest customers, each having contributed more than 10% of our revenue, accounted for an aggregate of approximately 98% and 99% of our contract receivables, respectively. Contract receivable due from our related parties during the six months ended September 30, 2025 accounted for 97% of our consolidated contract receivables, and for the year ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, accounted for an aggregate of approximately 59% and 72% of our consolidated contract receivables for the same periods, respectively.

The ability of these parties, including our related parties, to pay their obligations may be adversely affected by changes in their financial condition or other factors. We may experience difficulty collecting contract receivable due to disputes or financial difficulties of these customers, which could result in write-offs or bad debt expense, which may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, and results of operations.

Our revenue is mainly derived from projects and contracts which are non-recurrent in nature and there is no guarantee that our customers will provide us with new businesses.

Our revenue is typically derived from projects and contracts which are non-recurrent in nature and our customers are under no obligation to award projects to us. During the six months ended September 30, 2025 and the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we secured new businesses mainly through invitation for tender and enquiries from customers. There is

no assurance that we will be able to secure new projects and contracts in the future. Accordingly, the number and scale of projects and the amount of revenue we are able to derive therefrom may vary significantly from period to period, and it may be difficult to forecast the volume of future business. Our directors consider that our success rate on project tendering depends on a range of factors, which primarily include our pricing and tender strategy, competitors’ tender and pricing strategy, the availability of our resources, level of competition and our customers’ evaluation standards. Furthermore, so far as our directors are aware, some of our customers have maintained an evaluation system to ensure that the service providers meet certain standards of management, industrial expertise, financial capability, reputation and regulatory compliance which may change from time to time. There is no assurance that we could achieve the same or higher tender success rate in the future as we did during the six months ended September 30, 2025 and the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. If we fail to secure new contracts or there is a significant decrease in the number of tender invitations or contracts available for bidding in the future, our business, financial position and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

Failure to maintain safe construction sites and/or implement our safety management system may lead to the occurrence of personal injuries, property damages, fatal accidents or suspension or non-renewal of our registration under the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme of the Construction Industry Council

Due to the nature of works in construction sites, risks of accidents or injuries to workers are inherent. Notwithstanding our occupational health and safety measures that are required to be followed by employees of our Group, accidents leading to personal injuries, property damages and/or fatal accidents remain an inherent risk at work sites. There is no assurance that there will not be any violation of our safety measures or other related rules and regulations by the employees of our Group or our subcontractors. Any such violation may lead to higher probability of occurrences, and/or increased seriousness, of personal injuries, property damages and/or fatal accidents at work sites, which may materially and adversely affect our business operations as well as our financial position to the extent not covered by insurance policies. Also, failure to maintain safe construction sites and/or to implement safety management measures resulting in the occurrence of serious personal injuries or fatal accidents may lead to negative publicity and/or suspension or non-renewal of our registration under the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme of the Construction Industry Council, which in turn adversely affect our reputation, financial position and results of operation.

In addition, any personal injuries and/or fatal accidents to the employees of our Group may lead to claims or other legal proceedings against our Group. Any such claims or legal proceedings could adversely and materially affect our financial position to the extent not covered by insurance policies. Also, notwithstanding the merits of any such claims or legal proceedings, we need to divert management resources and incur extra costs to handle these matters. Any such claims or legal proceedings could therefore have a material and adverse impact on our business operations.

Our Operating Subsidiary determines the price of its quotation or tender based on the estimated time and costs to be involved in a project and the actual time and costs incurred may deviate from our estimate due to unexpected circumstances, thereby leading to cost overruns and adversely affecting our operations and financial results.

Our Operating Subsidiary determines the price of its quotation or tender based on estimated cost plus a certain mark-up margin. The actual time and costs incurred, however, may be adversely affected by various factors, including (i) the specifications, underground conditions, and difficulties of the project; (ii) the duration of the project; (iii) the site locations and the conditions and risk of adjacent building structures; (iv) unfavorable weather conditions; and (v) the resources availability. Significant changes in any of these or other relevant factors may lead to delay in completion or costs overrun by us, and there is no assurance that the actual time and costs incurred would match our initial estimate. As the contracts between our Operating Subsidiary and its customers were generally fixed-price contracts or re-measurement contracts for which our unit prices stated in the bill of quantities are fixed and without any price adjustment clause, once it agrees on the quotation or tender price with the customer, it will generally have to bear any additional costs incurred. Such delays, cost overruns, or mismatch of actual time and costs with the estimates may cause our profitability to be lower than what we expected or may expose our Operating Subsidiary to litigation or claims from customers in case of delays, thereby adversely affecting our operations and financial results.

Furthermore, the contracts our Operating Subsidiary entered into normally contain specific completion schedule requirements and liquidated damages provisions (i.e., our Operating Subsidiary may have to pay its customers liquidated damages if our Operating Subsidiary or its subcontractors do not meet the schedules). Liquidated damages are typically levied at an agreed rate for each day of delay that is owing to the default. Our Operating Subsidiary

may need to pay liquidated damages resulting from any failure to meet the completion schedule requirements of its contracts, to the extent that its customers do not grant it a time extension. This may reduce or diminish our expected profit and cash inflow from the relevant contracts.

Our Operating Subsidiary’s capacity to provide soil and rock transportation services is limited by availability of machinery and equipment.

Our Operating Subsidiary requires tipper trucks and drivers to carry out its soil and rock transportation services. As of the date of this prospectus, our Operating Subsidiary has 12 tipper trucks available for our projects. Our directors estimate the average utilization rates for tipper trucks during the six months ended September 30, 2025 and for the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were approximately 100%. The high utilization rate may require our Operating Subsidiary to rent trucks from third parties and related parties and engage subcontractors to provide transportation from time to time, and re-schedule the delivery requests made by its project teams for the use of the trucks.

There is no certainty that we will be able to successfully rent trucks from third parties and related parties or engage subcontractors to provide transportation, to do so at a competitive rate, or successfully re-schedule requests from our project sites without affecting the fulfillment of our projects. The inability of our Operating Subsidiary to increase our fleet of tipper trucks would expose us to associated risks in areas of our business expansion, our contract fulfillment and impact our costs and profitability.

Our Operating Subsidiary’s capacity to provide machinery rental services is limited by the requirements of our own projects.

Our Operating Subsidiary procures and maintains machinery primarily for deployment in our own construction and engineering projects. As a result, the availability of machinery for external rental depends on the timing, scale and operational needs of our ongoing and upcoming projects. When our projects require significant machinery resources, our Operating Subsidiary’s capacity to supply machinery for external rental may be materially constrained.

There is no assurance that we will be able to forecast our project-related machinery needs with accuracy. Unexpected changes in project schedules, whether due to customer-driven amendments, delays in site access, labor availability, weather conditions or regulatory issues, may reduce the volume of machinery equipment available for leasing to external parties. Conversely, we may also experience periods in which available machinery equipment exceeds our internal requirements, during which we seek to lease out idle machinery equipment. However, there is no guarantee that market demand will allow us to lease such machinery on favorable terms, or at all.

Our reliance on our own project pipeline to determine machinery equipment allocation exposes us to fluctuations in utilization levels, which may adversely affect the stability of our machinery rental services income. If our internal project needs increase unexpectedly, or if we are unable to secure external rental demand during periods of excess capacity, our operations and financial performance could be adversely affected.

Any failure, damage or loss of our Operating Subsidiary’s machinery and equipment may adversely affect our operations and financial performance.

Our Operating Subsidiary’s construction and soil and rock transportation services rely on machinery and equipment. If our Operating Subsidiary fails to remain attentive to and invest in suitable site equipment to cope with any latest development in such market trends or demands and to cater to different needs and requirements of different customers, overall competitiveness of our operating subsidiary and thus our financial performance and operation results may be adversely affected.

In addition, there is no assurance that our Operating Subsidiary’s machinery and equipment will not be damaged or lost as a result of, among others, improper operation, accidents, fire, adverse weather conditions, theft or robbery. Machinery and equipment may also break down or fail to function normally due to wear and tear or mechanical or other issues. If any failed, damaged or lost site equipment cannot be repaired and/or replaced in a timely manner, our operations and financial performance could be adversely affected.

An increase in waste disposal fees may lead to changes in the industry and intensified competition.

Effective from April 1, 2024, the waste disposal charges applicable to disposal of construction waste at public fill reception facilities, sorting facilities and landfills will substantially increase. For details, please refer to the section titled “Regulations — Regulations Related to Environmental Protection — Waste Disposal Ordinance (Chapter 354 of the Laws

of Hong Kong)”. Although our customers are directly responsible for the waste disposal charges, the implementation of increasingly higher disposal fees may indirectly affect the industry in which we operate. Customers that engage directly in foundation and site formation works that possess the relevant expertise may seek to control costs by handling waste disposal in-house. Those customers continuing to outsource waste disposal services may actively seek more cost-effective options to mitigate the impact of the increased fees. This may include exploring and evaluating additional service providers or negotiating for lower rates. Other subcontractors offering competing services may undercut our tenders and quotations to secure more projects, which could affect the success rate of our tenders as well as our project margins. The increase in such fees may also lead to customers seeking alternative waste management solutions to mitigate the impact of the increased government charges. The adoption of alternative waste management solutions may divert customers away from utilizing our services, leading to a decrease in our customer base and results of operations.

The total actual value of work done may differ from the original estimated contract sum stated in our contracts with customers

During the six months ended September 30, 2025 and the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, our contracts with customers are generally on re-measurement basis. Depending on our negotiations with customers, some of our customers may also engage us based on a lump sum price or a combination of lump sum price items and re-measurement items. In respect of re-measurement items, the contract will specify an estimated contract sum based on the agreed unit rates and the estimated quantities of work items. The actual amount of works to be carried out by us under our contract is subject to our customer’s instructions or orders placed during the contract period and the total actual value of work done may be different from the original estimated contract sum stated in the contract.

Our customers will measure the actual quantities of works executed on site and we will be paid based on the actual work done. In respect of lump sum price items, we are generally required to carry out the specified works required by our customers of fixed quantity at an agreed fixed price. Our customers may request additional, reduction or alteration of works beyond the scope of the contract during project implementation by placing variation orders with us. The aggregate amount of revenue that we are able to derive from a project may be different from the original estimated contract sum specified in the relevant contract due to variation orders placed by our customers. As such, there is no assurance that the amount of fees and charges as finally agreed with our customers would be sufficient to recover our costs incurred or provide us with a reasonable profit margin or the amount of revenue derived from our projects will not be substantially different from the original estimated contract sum as specified in the relevant contracts and our financial condition may be adversely affected by any decrease in our revenue as a result of variation orders. As a result, there is no assurance that our revenue and profit margin in the future will remain at a level comparable to those recorded during the six months ended September 30, 2025 and the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

Cash inflows and outflows in connection with construction projects may be irregular and, thus, may affect our net cash flow position.

In a construction project, cash outflows for payment of certain operating expenditures may not align with progress payments to be received during the relevant periods. In general, we do not receive any prepayment from our customers. Nevertheless, during the commencement of a project, we may incur various costs, including, but limited to, purchase costs of construction materials and supplies. While progress payments will be paid after our construction work commences and is certified by our customers and/or consultants engaged by our customers. Accordingly, the cash inflows and outflows for a particular project may fluctuate as the construction works progress. If, during any particular period of time, there exists too many projects that require substantial cash outflow while we have significantly less cash inflows during that period, our cash flow position may be adversely affected.

Further, we are subject to credit risks of our customers and our liquidity is dependent on our customers making prompt progress payments and/or release of retention monies due to us. We rely on cash inflow from our customers to meet our payment obligation to our suppliers and our employees, which is dependent on prompt settlement of progress payment and timely release of retention monies by our customers. As such, we may record a significant cash outflow in the event that we take up too many capital-intensive projects during a particular period of time.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to recover all or any part of the amounts due from our customers or we will be able to collect all or any part of the trade receivables from our customers within the agreed credit terms or at all. Further, in the event that disputes arise between us and the main contractor or customer in relation to the variation orders, there is a possibility that we may take a longer time than the credit period offered to collect payments. Any failure by our customers to make payments on time and in full may lead to mismatch in our cash flows, which will

negatively affect our cash flow position and affect (i) our ability to repay our suppliers and our employees; and (ii) our tendering decisions, as we may not be in a position to take up any more new projects with a high upfront costs. This will negatively affect our business operation and financial performance.

Any deterioration in the prevailing market conditions in the construction industry may adversely affect our performance and financial condition.

All our business operations are located in Hong Kong via our Operating Subsidiary. The direct customers of our Operating Subsidiary are primarily property developers and main contractors of various types of property development and civil engineering projects in Hong Kong. The number of projects awarded to our Operating Subsidiary depend highly on the prevailing market conditions in the construction industry, including shortage of skilled labor, economic fluctuations in Hong Kong, availability of new projects in the private sector; and general conditions and development of Hong Kong economy. If there is any significant deterioration in any of these factors, our operating results and financial conditions could be adversely affected.

We face keen competition from other players in the market.

The construction industry in Hong Kong is competitive. For instance, as at the date of this prospectus, according to Construction Industry Council, there were over 1,558 contractors registered under the subcontractor trade group of “Structural and Civil Works” who engage in similar construction civil engineering works as our Operating Subsidiary. Some of our competitors may have certain advantages, including stronger brand names, greater access to capital, longer operating history, longer and more established relationship with main contractors or project owners, and greater marketing and other forms of resources. Further, some of the existing market players have been listed on stock exchanges, which may give them an advantage in terms of financing capability and reputation. New participants may enter the industry, provided that they possess all the various licenses, resources, experience, and qualifications required. Increased competition may result in lower operating margins and loss of market share, resulting in an adverse impact on our profitability and operating results.

Our Group is dependent on key personnel and there is no assurance that our Group can retain them

Our directors believe that our success, to a large extent, is attributable to, among other things, the contribution of our Controlling Shareholder. Details of our Controlling Shareholder’s expertise and experience are set out in the section headed “Management” in this prospectus. Our key personnel as well as their management experience in the construction industry in Hong Kong are crucial to our operation and financial performance. Although we intend to enter into a service agreement with each of our executive directors, there could be an adverse impact on our operation should any of our executive directors terminate his service agreement with us or otherwise cease to serve our Group and appropriate persons could not be found to replace them. There is no assurance that we will be able to attract and retain capable staff in the future. In such event, the business and financial position and prospects of our Group could be materially and adversely affected.

Our ability to successfully tender for and undertake new projects is limited by the availability of our project management staff and our workforce

Our services capacity in undertaking several and sizeable construction projects is largely limited by the availability of our in-house project management staff and our workforce. However, shortage of experienced and skilled labor is a prolonged issue in the construction industry in Hong Kong. In view of the aforesaid, we may encounter difficulties in maintaining and recruiting sufficient number of project management staff or site workers for undertaking additional projects in the future.

During the six months ended September 30, 2025 and the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, our Group had from time to time received invitations for tenders when our available resources were occupied by other projects on hand. On occasion, in order to (i) maintain our business relationship with customers; (ii) maintain our presence in the market; and (iii) be informed of the latest market development and pricing trends which are useful for tendering projects in the future, we would respond to our customers’ invitations by submitting tenders instead of turning them down. In such circumstances, our executive directors would take a more prudent approach in costs estimation by factoring a higher profit margin even though it may cause our tender price to become less competitive than those submitted by our competitors. Therefore, our ability to successfully tender for new projects may be affected by the availability of our project management staff and workforce. There is a risk that we may not be awarded with new contracts by our customers as our tenders may become relatively less competitive due to limitation in our service capacity.

Our Operating Subsidiary relies on a stable workforce to carry out its construction projects. If our Operating Subsidiary experience any shortage of labor, industrial actions, strikes, or material increase in labor costs, our operations and financial results would be adversely affected.

Our Operating Subsidiary relies on a stable workforce to carry out its construction projects. In particular, a large number of construction workers and machinery operators with various skills and expertise are required for each construction project.

In view of the current situation in the labor market, there is no assurance that the supply of labor and average labor costs will be stable. All labor-intensive projects are more susceptible to labor shortage, and our subcontracting costs include the labor costs of our subcontractors. If there is a significant increase in the costs of labor and our Operating Subsidiary has to retain more labor by increasing their wages, the staff cost will increase and thus lower our profitability. On the other hand, if our Operating Subsidiary fails to retain our existing labor and/or recruit sufficient labor in a timely manner to cope with our existing or future projects, our Operating Subsidiary may not be able to complete its projects on schedule and may be subject to liquidated damages and/or incur a loss.

Failure to complete our projects on a reliable and timely basis could materially affect our reputation, our financial performance or may subject us to claim

The contracts with our customers generally contain a liquidated damages clause under which we are liable to pay liquidated damages to our customers if we are unable to deliver or perform the contractual works within the time specified in the contract. Liquidated damages are generally determined on the basis of a fixed sum per day. Delay in a project may occur from time to time due to various unforeseen factors such as shortage of manpower, delays by subcontractors, industrial accidents, and delay in delivery of materials. If there is any delay on our part in completion of a project, we may be liable to pay liquidated damages under the contract. There is no assurance that there will not be any delay in our existing and future projects resulting in claims in relation to liquidated damages, which in turn will have adverse impact on our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.

Amounts included in our backlog may not result in actual revenue or translate into profits. Our backlog is subject to cancellation and unexpected adjustments and therefore is an uncertain indicator of future results of operations.

Our backlog consists of the remaining unearned revenue on awarded contracts. We include in our backlog estimates of the amount of consideration to be received and such estimated value is generally firm or can be estimated with a reasonable amount of certainty in both timing and amounts. As construction on our contracts progresses, we increase or decrease backlog to take account of changes in estimated quantities under fixed-price contracts, as well as to reflect changed conditions, change orders and other variations from initially anticipated contract revenue and costs, including completion bonuses. Substantially all of the contracts in our backlog may be canceled or modified at the election of the customer. Reductions in backlog due to cancellation by a customer, or for other reasons, could significantly reduce the revenue that we actually receive from contracts in backlog. In the event of a project cancellation, we may be reimbursed for certain costs, but we typically have no contractual right to the total revenues reflected in our backlog. Backlog amounts are determined based on target price estimates that incorporate historical trends, anticipated seasonal impacts, experience from similar projects and from communications with our customers. These estimates may prove inaccurate, which could cause estimated revenue to be realized in periods later than originally expected, or not at all. As a result, our backlog as of any particular date is an uncertain indicator of future revenue and earnings. In addition, contracts included in our backlog may not be profitable. If our backlog fails to materialize, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected.

There is no assurance that we will be able to renew our registration under the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme of the Construction Industry Council

Our Operating Subsidiary is currently a registered specialist trade contractors in the designated trade category of sheet piles, earthwork, roadworks, road drainage and sewer, metal doors and fire rated door under the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme (formerly known as the Subcontractor Registration Scheme) of the Construction Industry Council. Subcontractors engaged under public sector projects initiated by the Government are generally required to possess registration under the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme of the Construction Industry Council. Renewal of registration under the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme is required every three or five years and is generally subject to certain technical and relevant industry experience requirements. There is

no assurance that we will be able to renew such registration every time in the future. In the event of non-renewal of such registration, our reputation, our ability to obtain future businesses, and our business and financial position and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

We are exposed to claims arising from latent defects liability. We do not maintain any defects liability insurance and we may face claims arising from latent defects that are existing but not yet active, developed or visible, found in the works which are constructed by us or our subcontractors. If there is any significant claim against us for latent defects liability of any default or failure of our services by our customers or other party, our profitability may be adversely affected.

Our contracts generally include a defects liability period of 12 months, following the completion of the relevant site works. During the defects liability period, we are typically required to rectify any defect without delay at our own cost if the defect is due to our non-conformance of works performed, or due to our neglect or failure to comply with our contractual obligation. Such obligation will be recognized as liability in the statement of financial position if the obligation is considered highly probable and the obliged amount can be reliably measured. Otherwise, such claim will be disclosed as contingent liability.

Our insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover potential liabilities

Certain risks disclosed elsewhere in this section such as risks in relation to customer concentration, our ability to obtain new contracts, our ability to retain and attract personnel, availability and performance of our workforce, project and cost management, our ability to maintain and renew our registrations, credit risk and liquidity risk, are generally not covered by insurance because they are either uninsurable or it is not cost justifiable to insure against such risks. Insurance policies covering losses from acts of war, terrorism, or natural catastrophes are also either unavailable or cost prohibitive.

Further, we may be subject to liabilities against which we are not insured adequately or at all or liabilities against which cannot be insured. Should any significant liabilities arise due to accidents, natural disasters, or other events which are not covered or are inadequately covered by our insurance, our business may be adversely affected, potentially lead to a loss of assets, lawsuits, employee compensation obligations, or other forms of economic loss.

We cannot guarantee that our current levels of insurance are sufficient to cover all potential risks and losses. In addition, we cannot guarantee that we can renew our policies or can renew our policies on similar or other acceptable terms. If we suffer from severe unexpected losses or losses that far exceed the policy limits, it could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and prospect.

Our profitability may be affected by the potential increase in depreciation expenses and staff costs upon our planned acquisition of additional machinery and motor vehicles and our planned recruitment of additional staff

It is one of our business strategies to acquire additional machinery by utilizing a portion of the net proceeds from this offering so as to cope with our business development, increase our overall efficiency, capacity and technical capability in performing construction works as well as our ability to cater for different needs and requirements of different customers. In addition to the acquisition of additional machinery and motor vehicles, our business strategies also include the recruitment of additional staff by utilizing a portion of the net proceeds from this offering so as to cope with our business development. Our planned investments in machinery and labor resources will increase our costs (including depreciation expenses and staff costs) but there is no assurance that there will be a satisfactory increase in our operational and financial performance as a result. Should we be unable to obtain more projects and increase our profitability after such planned investments, our business and financial position and prospects may be adversely affected.

Possible difficulty in recruiting sufficient labor may hinder our future business strategies

It is one of our business strategies to expand our labor resources by recruiting additional staff in order to cope with our business development and our planned purchases of additional machinery. However, our directors observed that the construction industry in Hong Kong has been facing the problem of labor shortage and ageing workforce. As a result, there may be potential difficulties for us to recruit sufficient labor for the implementation of our future business strategies. Any material difficulties in recruiting sufficient labor for the implementation of our future business strategies may adversely affect our ability to successfully grow our business, which may in turn adversely affect our business and financial position and prospects.

Our business plans and strategies may not be successful or be achieved within the expected time frame or within the estimated budget

We intend to further increase our capital reserve for financing our project up-front costs, enhance our machinery, strengthen our manpower and occupational safety management capability in order to cope with the expected increase in demand for our services. However, our plans and strategies may be hindered by risks including but not limited to those mentioned elsewhere in this section. There is no assurance that we will be able to successfully maintain or increase our market share or grow our business successfully after deploying our management and financial resources. Any failure in maintaining our current market position or implementing our plans could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If we fail to comply with applicable anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws, our reputation may be harmed and we could be subject to penalties and significant expenses that have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations

We are subject to the anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws of Hong Kong, which include but are not limited to the Prevention of Bribery Ordinance. Our procedures and controls to monitor anti-corruption and anti-bribery compliance may fail to protect us from reckless or criminal acts committed by our employees. If we, due to either our own deliberate or inadvertent acts or those of others, fail to comply with applicable anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws, our reputation could be harmed and we could incur criminal or civil penalties, other sanctions and/or significant expenses, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, including our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.

We and the Operating Subsidiary are exposed to potential disruptions and risks from unforeseen disasters or crises.

The operations and business continuity of our Operating Subsidiary depend on its ability to operate its facilities and systems without significant interruption. Unforeseen events such as natural disasters, pandemics, power outages, or other catastrophic events could potentially disrupt their operations, leading to business interruption, financial loss, and damage to our reputation. While our Operating Subsidiary has in place business continuity plans, these plans might not be sufficient to mitigate all potential disruptions. Furthermore, in the context of a global pandemic, our operations may be severely impacted due to government-imposed restrictions, widespread illness among the employees of the Operating Subsidiary, or disruptions in supply chain. There is no guarantee that the contingency plans could fully prevent or remediate the effects of such unforeseen disasters or crises. Thus, our financial condition, results of operations, and business prospects may be adversely affected.

We may be a party to legal proceedings from time to time and we cannot assure you that such legal proceedings will not have a material adverse impact on our business.

We may be involved in claims and litigations in respect of various matters from our customers, workers and other parties concerned with our works from time to time. Such claims may include in particular employees’ compensation claims and personal injury claims in relation to personal injuries suffered by workers as a result of accidents arising out of and in the course of employment of the injured workers. There is no assurance that we will not be involved in any claims or legal proceedings, nor can we assure you that any such claims or legal proceedings would not have a material adverse impact on our business. Should any claims against us fall outside the scope and/or limit of insurance coverage, our financial position may be adversely affected. Regardless of the merits of any outstanding and potential claims, we need to divert management resources and incur extra costs to handle these claims, which could affect our corporate image and reputation if they were published by the press. If the aforesaid claims were successfully made against us and are not covered by insurance policies, we may need to pay damages and legal costs, which in turn could adversely affect our results of operations and financial position.

We do not have a long history of running as an integrated group. Our limited operating history running as an integrated group in the industry may not provide an adequate basis to predict our future prospects and results of operations for this segment, and may increase the risk of your investment.

Our Company was incorporated as a holding company on October 3, 2024. While the businesses of our subsidiary have been in operation since 2015, we do not have a long history of running an integrated group with standardized policies and procedures 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 not be able to adequately predict our future prospects and

results of operations in our operating segment, and 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. The aforesaid may all increase the risk of your investment in the Ordinary Shares.

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

After becoming a public company, we expect to incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. These additional costs could negatively affect our financial results. In addition, changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including regulations implemented by the NYSE American, may increase legal and financial compliance costs and make some activities more time consuming. These laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. We may be required to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards, and such investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management’s time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If, notwithstanding our efforts to comply with new laws, regulations and standards, we fail to comply, regulatory authorities may initiate legal proceedings against us and our business may be harmed.

The obligation to disclose information publicly may put us at a disadvantage to competitors that are private companies.

As a publicly listed company, we will be required to file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission upon the occurrence of matters that are material to our Company and shareholders. In some cases, we will need to disclose material agreements or results of financial operations that we would not be required to disclose if we were a private company. Our competitors may have access to this information, which would otherwise be confidential. This may give them advantages in competing with our company. Similarly, as a U.S.-listed public company, we will be governed by U.S. laws that our competitors, which are mostly private Hong Kong and Chinese companies, are not required to follow. To the extent compliance with U.S. laws increases our expenses or decreases our competitiveness against such companies, our public listing could affect our results of operations.

Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong

Our key operations are in Hong Kong, a Special Administrative Region of the PRC. According to the long-arm provisions under the current PRC laws and regulations, the PRC government may exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business and may intervene in or influence our operations at any time, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of the Ordinary Shares. The PRC government may intervene or impose restrictions on our ability to move money out of Hong Kong to distribute earnings and pay dividends or to reinvest in our business outside of Hong Kong. Changes in the policies, regulations, rules, and the enforcement of laws of the PRC government may also be quick with little advance notice and our assertions and beliefs of the risk imposed by the PRC legal and regulatory system cannot be certain.

Uptrend Holdings Limited is a holding company and we conduct our operations in Hong Kong through our Operating Subsidiary. Hong Kong is a Special Administrative Region of the PRC. Although a portion of our customers are individuals from mainland China or companies that have shareholders and directors that are individuals from mainland China, the Operating Subsidiary does not have operations in mainland China or is not regulated by any regulator in mainland China. Furthermore, except for the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (“Basic Law”), national laws of the PRC do not apply in Hong Kong unless they are listed in Annex III of the Basic Law and applied locally by promulgation or local legislation. National laws that may be listed in Annex III are currently limited under the Basic Law to those which fall within the scope of defense and foreign affairs as well as other matters outside the limits of the autonomy of Hong Kong. National laws and regulations relating to data protection, cybersecurity and the anti-monopoly have not been listed in Annex III and so do not apply directly to Hong Kong.

We do not have any operations in mainland China and currently do not have or intend to have any operating subsidiary established in mainland China or any contractual arrangement to establish a variable interest entity (“VIE”) structure with any entity in mainland China, but because all of our operations are conducted in Hong Kong through

our wholly-owned Operating Subsidiary, and Hong Kong is a Special Administrative Region of China. Due to certain long-arm provisions in the current PRC laws and regulations, there remains regulatory and legal uncertainty with respect to the implementation and interpretation of laws in China as they may affect Hong Kong. As a result, there is no guarantee that the PRC government may not choose to implement the PRC laws and regulations to Hong Kong and exercise significant direct influence and discretion over the operation of the Operating Subsidiary in the future and, it will not have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations, due to changes in laws, political environment or other unforeseeable reasons. In the event that we or our Hong Kong Operating Subsidiary were to become subject to the PRC laws and regulations, it is possible that all the legal and operational risks associated with being based in and having operations in the PRC may also apply to the operations in Hong Kong in the future, and we face the risks and uncertainties associated with the PRC legal system, complex and evolving PRC laws and regulation, and as to whether and how the recent PRC government statements and regulatory developments, such as those relating to data and cyberspace security and anti-monopoly concerns, would be applicable to a companies like the Operating Subsidiary and us, given the substantial operations of the Operating Subsidiary in Hong Kong and the Chinese government may exercise significant oversight over the conduct of business in Hong Kong.

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

In addition, these PRC laws and regulations may be interpreted and applied inconsistently by different agencies or authorities, which may result in inconsistency with our current policies and practices. New laws, regulations, and other government directives in the PRC may also be costly to comply with, and such compliance, any associated inquiries or investigations, or any other government actions may:

•        delay or impede our development;

•        result in negative publicity or increase our operating costs;

•        require significant management time and attention; and

•        subject us to remedies, administrative penalties, and even criminal liabilities that may harm our business, including fines assessed for our current or historical operations, or demands or orders that we modify or even cease our business practices.

We are aware that recently the PRC government initiated a series of regulatory actions and statements to regulate business operations in certain areas in China with little advance notice, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, enhancing supervision over China-based companies listed overseas using a VIE structure, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding the efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. Since these statements and regulatory actions are new, it is highly uncertain how soon the PRC legislative or administrative regulation making bodies will respond or what existing or new laws or regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations will be modified or promulgated, if any, or what the potential impact that any such modified or new laws and regulations would have on our daily business operation, the ability to accept foreign investments and list on a U.S. or other foreign exchange.

The PRC government may intervene or influence our operations at any time and may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and foreign investment in Hong Kong-based issuers, which may result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of the Ordinary Shares. The promulgation of new laws or regulations, or

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

For example, there is currently no restriction or limitation under the laws of Hong Kong on the conversion of HK dollar into foreign currencies and the transfer of currencies out of Hong Kong and the laws and regulations of the PRC on currency conversion control do not currently have any material impact on the transfer of cash between the ultimate holding company and our Operating Subsidiary in Hong Kong. However, the PRC government may, in the future, impose restrictions or limitations on our ability to move money out of Hong Kong to distribute earnings and pay dividends to and from the other entities within our organization or to reinvest in our business outside of Hong Kong. Such restrictions and limitations, if imposed in the future, may delay or hinder the expansion of our business to outside of Hong Kong and may affect our ability to receive funds from our Operating Subsidiary in Hong Kong. The promulgation of new laws or regulations, or the new interpretation of existing laws and regulations, in each case, that restrict or otherwise unfavorably impact our ability to conduct our business could require us to change certain aspects of our business to ensure compliance; decrease demand for our services; reduce revenues; increase costs; require us to obtain more licenses, permits, approvals, or certificates; or subject us to additional liabilities. To the extent any new or more stringent measures are implemented, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected and the value of our Ordinary Shares could decrease or become worthless.

There are uncertainties regarding the interpretation and enforcement of PRC and Hong Kong laws, rules, and regulations.

A substantial majority of our operations are conducted in Hong Kong, a Special Administrative Region of China with its own governmental and legal system that is independent from mainland China and has its own distinct rules and regulations. However, the Operating Subsidiary may become subject to laws, rules, and regulations applicable to foreign investment in mainland China. The PRC legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value, unlike the common law system applicable in Hong Kong. These laws and regulations are sometimes vague and may be subject to future changes, and their official interpretation and enforcement could be unpredictable with little advance notice, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of the Ordinary Shares.

In 1979, the PRC government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws, rules, and regulations governing economic matters in general. The overall effect of legislation over the past three decades has significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investment in China. However, China has not developed a fully integrated legal system, and recently enacted laws, rules, and regulations may not sufficiently cover all aspects of economic activities in China or may be subject to significant degrees of interpretation by PRC regulatory agencies. In particular, because these laws, rules, and regulations are relatively new, and because of the limited number of published decisions and the non-binding nature of such decisions, and because the laws, rules, and regulations often give the relevant regulator significant discretion in how to enforce them, the interpretation and enforcement of these laws, rules, and regulations involve uncertainties and can be inconsistent and unpredictable. In addition, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules, some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all, and which may have a retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of these policies and rules until after the occurrence of the violation.

Any administrative and court proceedings in China may be protracted, resulting in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention. Since PRC administrative and court authorities have significant discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms, it may be more difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of legal protection we enjoy than in more developed legal systems.

Adverse regulatory developments in China may subject us to additional regulatory review, and additional disclosure requirements and regulatory scrutiny to be adopted by the SEC in response to risks related to recent regulatory developments in China may impose additional compliance requirements for companies like us with Hong Kong-based operations, all of which could increase our compliance costs and subject us to additional disclosure requirements.

Currently, Hong Kong has a separate legal system from mainland China, and it has its legislative framework and judiciary independent of that of the PRC government. Nonetheless, the recent regulatory developments in China, in particular with respect to restrictions on China-based companies raising capital offshore, may lead to additional

regulatory review in China over our financing and capital raising activities in the United States. In addition, we may be subject to industry-wide regulations that may be adopted by the relevant PRC authorities, which may have the effect of limiting our service offerings, restricting the scope of our operations in Hong Kong, or causing the suspension or termination of our business operations in Hong Kong entirely. We may have to adjust, modify, or completely change our business operations in response to adverse regulatory changes or policy developments, and we cannot assure you that any remedial action adopted by us can be completed in a timely, cost efficient, or liability-free manner or at all.

On July 30, 2021, in response to the recent regulatory developments in China and actions adopted by the PRC government, the Chairman of the SEC issued a statement asking the SEC staff to seek additional disclosures from offshore issuers associated with China-based operating companies (including Hong Kong) before their registration statements will be declared effective. On August 1, 2021, the CSRC issued a statement saying that it had taken note of the new disclosure requirements announced by the SEC regarding the listings of Chinese companies and the recent regulatory development in China, and that both countries should strengthen communications on regulating China-related issuers. Since the Operating Subsidiary operate in Hong Kong, we cannot guarantee that we will not be subject to tightened regulatory review and we could be exposed to government interference from China.

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

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

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

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

On December 24, 2021, the CSRC, together with other relevant government authorities in China, issued the Draft Overseas Listing Regulations. The Draft Overseas Listing Regulations require that a PRC domestic enterprise seeking to issue and list its shares overseas (“Overseas Issuance and Listing”) shall complete the filing procedures and submit the relevant information to CSRC. The Overseas Issuance and Listing includes direct and indirect issuance and listing. Where an enterprise whose principal business activities are conducted in PRC seeks to issue and list its shares in the name of an overseas enterprise on the basis of the equity, assets, income, or other similar rights and interests of the relevant PRC domestic enterprise, such activities shall be deemed an indirect overseas issuance and listing under the Draft Overseas Listing Regulations.

On December 28, 2021, the CAC, jointly with the relevant authorities, formally published Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021), which took effect on February 15, 2022, and replaced the former Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2020) issued on July 10, 2021. Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021) stipulates that operators of critical information infrastructure purchasing network products and services, and online platform operators (together with the operators of critical information infrastructure, the (“Operators”) carrying out data processing activities that affect or may affect national security, shall conduct a cybersecurity review, and any online platform operator who controls more than one million users’ personal information must go through a cybersecurity review by the cybersecurity review office if it seeks to be listed in a foreign country.

On February 17, 2023, the CSRC released the Trial Measures for Administration of Overseas Securities Offerings and Listings by Domestic Companies and five interpretive guidelines (collectively, the “CSRC Filing Rules”), which came into effect on March 31, 2023. Under the CSRC Filing Rules, a filing based regulatory system shall be applied to “indirect overseas offerings and listings” of PRC domestic companies, which refers to securities offerings and listings in an overseas market made under the name of an offshore entity but based on the underlying equity, assets, earnings, or other similar rights of a domestic company that operates its main business domestically. The CSRC Filing Rules state that any post-listing follow-on offering by an issuer in the same overseas market, including issuance of shares, convertible notes, and other similar securities, shall be subject to filing requirement within three business days after the completion of the offering.

Our Operating Subsidiary may collect and store certain data (including certain personal information) from our clients, who may be mainland China individuals, in connection with our business and operations and for “Know Your Customers” purposes (to combat money laundering). The Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021), PRC Data Security Law, the PRC Personal Information Protection Law, and the Draft Overseas Listing Regulations currently does not have an impact on our business, operations or this offering, nor do we or our Operating Subsidiary are covered by permission requirements from the CAC that is required to approve Operating Subsidiary’s operations and our Offering, as our Operating Subsidiary will not be deemed to be an “Operator” or a “data processor” that required to file for cybersecurity review before listing in the United States, because: (i) our Operating Subsidiary was incorporated in Hong Kong and operate only in Hong Kong without any subsidiary or VIE structure in mainland China and each of the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021), the Personal Information Protection Law and the Draft Overseas Listing Regulations do not clearly provide whether it shall be applied to a company based in Hong Kong; (ii) as of date of this prospectus, our Operating Subsidiary has in aggregate collected and stored personal information of far less than one million users; (iii) all of the data our Operating Subsidiary have collected is stored in servers located in Hong Kong, and we and our Operating Subsidiary do not place any reliance on collection and processing of any personal information to maintain our business operation; (iv) as of the date of this prospectus, our Operating Subsidiary has not been informed by any PRC governmental authority of any requirement that it files for a CSRC review, nor received any inquiry, notice, warning, or sanction in such respect initiated by the CAC or related governmental regulatory authorities; and (v) data processed in our business should not have a bearing on national security nor affect or may affect national security, and we and our Operating Subsidiary have not been notified by any authorities of being classified as an Operator. Moreover, pursuant to the Basic Law, PRC laws and regulations shall not be applied in Hong Kong except for those listed in Annex III of the Basic Law (which is confined to laws relating to national defense, foreign affairs and other matters that are not within the scope of autonomy). Therefore, based on the PRC laws and regulations effective as of the date of this prospectus and subject to interpretations of these laws and regulations that may be adopted by mainland China authorities, neither we, nor our Operating Subsidiary in Hong Kong are currently required to obtain any permission or approval from the mainland China authorities, including the CSRC and CAC, to operate our business or to offer the securities being registered to foreign investors. As of the date of this prospectus, neither we nor our Operating Subsidiary have ever applied for any such permission or approval.

However, given the uncertainties arising from the legal system in mainland China and Hong Kong, including uncertainties regarding the interpretation and enforcement of the PRC laws and regulations and the significant authority of the PRC government to intervene or influence the offshore holding company headquartered in Hong Kong, there remains significant uncertainty in the interpretation and enforcement of Draft Overseas Listing Regulations, CSRC Filing Rules, PRC Personal Information Protection Law, relevant mainland China data privacy, cybersecurity laws and other regulations. It is highly uncertain how soon the legislative or administrative regulation-making bodies will respond and what existing or new laws or regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations will be modified or promulgated, if any. It is also highly uncertain what the potential impact such modified or new laws and regulations will have on the daily business operations of our Operating Subsidiary and the listing of our Ordinary Shares on the U.S. or other foreign exchanges.

If the PRC Personal Information Protection Law becomes applicable to the companies headquartered in Hong Kong, our business, or the operation of our Operating Subsidiary, there can be no assurance that we or our subsidiaries will be able to comply with the PRC Personal Information Protection Law. Our Operating Subsidiary’s current practice of collecting and processing personal information may be required to be rectified or terminated by regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with any applicable requirements may subject our Operating Subsidiary to fines and other penalties which may have a material adverse effect on its business, operations, and financial condition. Furthermore, if the CSRC Filing Rules become applicable to our Operating Subsidiary in Hong Kong, if any of our Operating Subsidiary is deemed to be an “Operator”, or if the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021) or the PRC Personal Information Protection Law become applicable to our Operating Subsidiary in Hong Kong, the business operation of our Operating Subsidiary

and the listing of our Ordinary Shares in the United States could be subject to the CAC’s cybersecurity review or the CSRC Overseas Issuance and Listing review in the future. If the applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change and our Operating Subsidiary become subject to the CAC or CSRC review, we cannot assure you that our Operating Subsidiary will be able to comply with the regulatory requirements in all respects and our current practice of collecting and processing personal information may be ordered to be rectified or terminated by regulatory authorities. Compliance with these laws and regulations could significantly increase the cost to us of providing our service offerings, require significant changes to our operations or even prevent us from providing certain service offerings in jurisdictions in which our Operating Subsidiary currently operate or in which we or our Operating Subsidiary may operate in the future.

Additionally, as our Operating Subsidiary is based in Hong Kong without mainland China operation and subsidiaries, under the currently effective PRC laws and regulations, we and our Operating Subsidiary are not required to seek approval from the CSRC, or any other PRC governmental authorities for our overseas listing plan, nor have we or our Operating Subsidiary received any inquiry, notice, warning or sanctions regarding our planned overseas listing from the CSRC or any other PRC governmental authorities as of the date of this prospectus. However, since the CSRC Filing Rules were newly promulgated, its interpretation, application and enforcement remain unclear and there also remains significant uncertainty as to the enactment, interpretation and implementation of other regulatory requirements related to overseas securities offerings and other capital markets activities. If there is a significant change to the current political arrangements between mainland China and Hong Kong, or the applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change, and/or if we were required to obtain such permissions or approvals in the future in connection with the listing or continued listing of our securities on a stock exchange outside of the PRC, it is uncertain how long it will take for us to obtain such approval, and, even if we obtain such approval, the approval could be rescinded. Any failure to obtain or a delay in obtaining the necessary permissions from the PRC authorities to conduct offerings or list outside of the PRC may subject us to sanctions imposed by the CSRC, CAC, or other PRC regulatory authorities. It could include fines and penalties, proceedings against us, and other forms of sanctions, and our ability to conduct our business, invest into the mainland China as foreign investments or accept foreign investments, ability to offer or continue to offer Ordinary Shares to investors or list on the U.S. or other overseas exchange may be restricted, and the value of our Ordinary Shares may significantly decline or be worthless, our business, reputation, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. The CSRC, the CAC, or other PRC regulatory agencies also may take actions requiring us, or making it advisable for us, to halt this offering before settlement and delivery of our Ordinary Shares. Consequently, if you engage in market trading or other activities in anticipation of and prior to settlement and delivery, you do so at the risk that settlement and delivery may not occur. In addition, if the CSRC, the CAC, or other regulatory PRC agencies later promulgate new rules requiring that we obtain their approvals for this offering, we may be unable to obtain a waiver of such approval requirements, if and when procedures are established to obtain such a waiver. Any uncertainties and/or negative publicity regarding such an approval requirement could have a material adverse effect on the trading price of our securities.

If the PRC government chooses to extend the oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in mainland China-based issuers to Hong Kong-based issuers, such action may significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer Ordinary Shares to investors and cause the value of our Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or be worthless.

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

It remains uncertain whether the PRC government will adopt additional requirements or extend the existing requirements to apply to our Operating Subsidiary. It is also uncertain whether the Hong Kong government will be mandated by the PRC government, despite the constitutional constraints of the Basic Law, to control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment of entities in Hong Kong, including our Operating Subsidiary. Any actions by the PRC government to exert more oversight and control over offerings (including of businesses whose primary operations are in Hong Kong) that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investments in Hong Kong-based issuers could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors. If there is a significant change to current political arrangements between mainland China and Hong Kong, or the

applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change, and, in such event, if we are required to obtain such approvals in the future and we do not receive or maintain the approvals or is denied permission from mainland China or Hong Kong authorities, we will not be able to list our Ordinary Shares on a U.S. exchange, or continue to offer securities to investors, which would materially affect the interests of the investors and cause significant the value of our Ordinary Shares significantly decline or be worthless.

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

WWC P.C. is a firm registered with the PCAOB and is subject to inspections by the PCAOB. However, if there is significant change to current political arrangements between mainland China and Hong Kong, companies operated in Hong Kong like us may face similar regulatory risks as those operated in mainland China, and we cannot assure you that our current auditor’s work will continue to be able to be inspected by the PCAOB. As part of a continued regulatory focus in the United States on access to audit and other information currently protected by national law, in particular mainland China’s, in June 2019, a bipartisan group of lawmakers introduced bills in both houses of the U.S. Congress that, if passed, would require the SEC to maintain a list of issuers for which PCAOB is not able to inspect or investigate the audit work performed by a foreign public accounting firm completely. The proposed Ensuring Quality Information and Transparency for Abroad-Based Listings on our Exchanges (“EQUITABLE”) Act prescribes increased disclosure requirements for these issuers and, beginning in 2025, the delisting from U.S. national securities exchanges, such as the NYSE American, of issuers included on the SEC’s list for three consecutive years, thus reducing the time period for triggering the prohibition on trading. It is unclear if this proposed legislation will be enacted. Furthermore, there have been recent deliberations within the U.S. government regarding potentially limiting or restricting China-based companies from accessing U.S. capital markets. On May 20, 2020, the U.S. Senate passed the HFCA Act, which includes requirements for the SEC to identify issuers whose audit work is performed by auditors that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a restriction imposed by a non-U.S. authority in the auditor’s local jurisdiction. The U.S. House of Representatives passed the HFCA Act on December 2, 2020, and the HFCA Act was signed into law on December 18, 2020. Additionally, in July 2020, the U.S. President’s Working Group on Financial Markets issued recommendations for actions that can be taken by the executive branch, the SEC, the PCAOB, or other federal agencies and departments with respect to Chinese companies listed on U.S. stock exchanges and their audit firms, in an effort to protect investors in the United States. In response, on November 23, 2020, the SEC issued guidance highlighting certain risks (and their implications to U.S. investors) associated with investments in China-based issuers and summarizing enhanced disclosures the SEC recommends China-based issuers make regarding such risks. On March 24, 2021, the SEC adopted interim final rules relating to the implementation of certain disclosure and documentation requirements of the HFCA Act. We will be required to comply with these rules if the SEC identifies us as having a “non-inspection” year (as defined in the interim final rules) under a process to be subsequently established by the SEC. The SEC is assessing how to implement other requirements of the HFCA Act, including the listing and trading prohibition requirements described above. Under the HFCA Act, our securities may be prohibited from trading on the NYSE American or other U.S. stock exchanges if our auditor is not inspected by the PCAOB for three consecutive years, and this ultimately could result in the Ordinary Shares being delisted. Furthermore, on June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the AHFCAA, which, if enacted, would amend the HFCA Act and require the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three, thus reducing the time period for triggering the prohibition on trading. On September 22, 2021, the PCAOB adopted a final rule implementing the AHFCAA, which provides a framework for the PCAOB to use when determining, as contemplated under the AHFCAA, whether the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms located in a foreign jurisdiction because of a position taken by one or more authorities in that jurisdiction. On November 5, 2021, the SEC approved the PCAOB’s Rule 6100, Board Determinations under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act. Rule 6100 provides a framework for the PCAOB to use when determining, as contemplated under the AHFCAA,

whether it is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms located in a foreign jurisdiction because of a position taken by one or more authorities in that jurisdiction. On December 2, 2021, the SEC issued amendments to finalize rules implementing the submission and disclosure requirements in the AHFCAA. The rules apply to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in foreign jurisdictions. On December 16, 2021, the SEC announced that the PCAOB designated mainland China and Hong Kong as the jurisdictions where the PCAOB is not allowed to conduct full and complete audit inspections as mandated under the HFCA Act. On August 26, 2022, the PCAOB signed a Statement of Protocol with the CSRC and the PRC MOF in respect to cooperation on the oversight of PCAOB-registered public accounting firms based in mainland China and Hong Kong. Pursuant to the Statement of Protocol, the PCAOB conducted inspections on select registered public accounting firms subject to the Determination Report in Hong Kong between September 2022 and November 2022. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB announced that it has completed the inspections, determined that it had complete access to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong, and voted to vacate the Determination Report. As a result of the announcement, any companies audited by registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong would not face immediate threat of trading prohibitions at this time. However, if any regulatory change or step taken by PRC regulators in the future precludes the PCAOB from accessing auditing papers of registered public accounting firms in mainland China and Hong Kong, or the PCAOB re-evaluates its determination as a result of any obstruction with the implementation of the Statement of Protocol in the future, then the companies audited by those registered public accounting firms may be subject to a trading prohibition on U.S. markets pursuant to the HFCA Act. On December 29, 2022, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 (the “CAA”) was signed into law by President Biden. The CAA contained, among other things, an identical provision to the AHFCAA, which reduces the number of consecutive non-inspection years required for triggering the prohibitions under the HFCA Act from three years to two.

The most recent inspection by PCAOB on accounting firms based in China and Hong Kong was conducted in early 2023 pursuant to which the PCOAB has issued enforcement actions against China-based registered auditing firms and their personnel. However, whether the PCAOB will continue to conduct inspections and investigations completely to its satisfaction of PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong is subject to uncertainty and depends on a number of factors out of our, and our auditor’s, control. The PCAOB is expected to continue to demand complete access to inspections and investigations against accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong in the future. The PCAOB is required under the HFCA Act to make its determination on an annual basis with regards to its ability to inspect and investigate completely accounting firms based in the mainland China and Hong Kong. The possibility of being a “commission-identified issuer” and risk of delisting could continue to adversely affect the trading price of our securities. Should the PCAOB again encounter impediments to inspections and investigations in mainland China or Hong Kong as a result of positions taken by any authority in either jurisdiction, the PCAOB will make determinations under the HFCA Act as and when appropriate.

The effect of the Hong Kong Autonomy Act (“HKAA”) and other U.S. government policies in response to the enactment of Law of the PRC on Safeguarding National Security in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the “Hong Kong National Security Law”) could impact our Operating Subsidiary.

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

in Hong Kong. If our Hong Kong subsidiaries conduct business operations in the future and were determined to be in violation of the Hong Kong National Security Law or the HKAA for some reasons, however unlikely, our business operations, financial position and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

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

During the last several years, U.S.-listed companies that have substantially all of their operations in China have been the subject of intense scrutiny by investors, financial commentators, and regulatory agencies. Much of the scrutiny has centered on financial and accounting irregularities and mistakes, lack of effective internal controls over financial reporting, and, in many cases, allegations of fraud. As a result of the scrutiny, the publicly traded stock of many U.S.-listed Chinese companies that have been the subject of such scrutiny has sharply decreased in value. Many of these companies are now subject to shareholder lawsuits and/or SEC enforcement actions that are conducting internal and/or external investigations into the allegations.

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

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

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

Economic conditions in Hong Kong and China are sensitive to global economic conditions. If there is any significant decline in the global economy, our profitability and business prospects will be materially affected. Although we mainly operate our business through our Operating Subsidiary in Hong Kong, our clients principally comprise of listed companies as well as IPO listing applicants in Hong Kong and abroad. As such, the demand for our IPO sponsorship services, corporate finance and capital market advisory services and placing and underwriting services may be dependent on the global economy. Major market disruptions and adverse changes in market conditions and uncertainty in the regulatory climate worldwide may adversely affect our business and industry or impair our ability to borrow or make any future financial arrangements. The credit and financial markets have experienced extreme volatility and disruptions due to the current conflict between Ukraine and Russia, and the uncertain resolution of this conflict could result in protracted and/or severe damage to the global economy. The conflict is expected to have further global economic consequences, including, but not limited to, the possibility of severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic growth, increases in inflation rates, and uncertainty about economic and political stability. The extent and duration of the military action, sanctions, and resulting market disruptions are impossible to predict, but they could be substantial, even though we do not have any direct exposure to Russia or the adjoining geographic regions. Rising tension between the U.S. and China may an adverse effect on global economic conditions. On August 9, 2023, an executive order was issued by President Biden to direct the Department of Treasury to issue regulations to restrict outbound investment in key technology sectors by U.S. persons to China, with a view to bolster U.S. national security and to curtail investment in sectors that may advance China’s military, intelligence, surveillance or cyber-enabled capabilities. Although we are not involved in the technology sector, any restrictions on investments, we will closely monitor the developments and potential implications of these regulations to assess any potential indirect effects on our operations.

Fluctuations in exchange rates could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and the price of the Ordinary Shares.

Our business is conducted in Hong Kong through our Operating Subsidiary; our books and records are reported in Hong Kong dollars, which is the currency of Hong Kong; and the financial statements that we file with the SEC and provide to our shareholders are presented in U.S. dollars.

Since 1983, Hong Kong dollars have been pegged to U.S. dollars at the rate of approximately HK$7.80 to US$1.00. Changes in the exchange rate between the Hong Kong dollar and U.S. dollar affect the value of our assets and the results of our operations in U.S. dollars. The value of the Hong Kong dollar against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in Hong Kong’s political and economic conditions and perceived changes in the economy of Hong Kong and the United States. Any significant revaluation of the Hong Kong dollar may materially and adversely affect our cash flows, revenue, and financial condition.

We cannot assure you that the current policy of the pegging of Hong Kong dollars to U.S. dollars will not be changed in the future. If the pegging system collapses and Hong Kong dollars suffer devaluation, the Hong Kong dollar cost of our expenditures denominated in foreign currency may increase. This would, in turn, adversely affect the operations and profitability of our business.

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

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

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

The Hong Kong legal system embodies uncertainties that could limit the availability of legal protections.

Hong Kong is a Special Administrative Region of the PRC. Following British colonial rule from 1842 to 1997, China assumed sovereignty under the “one country, two systems” principle. The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region’s constitutional document, the Basic Law, ensures that the current political situation will remain in effect for 50 years. The laws previously in force in Hong Kong, that is, the common law, rules of equity, ordinances, subordinate legislation and customary law are maintained. Hong Kong has enjoyed the freedom to function with a high degree of autonomy for its affairs, including currencies, immigration and customs operations, and its independent judiciary system and parliamentary system. The Special Administrative Region of Hong Kong is responsible for its own domestic affairs including, but not limited to, the judiciary and courts of last resort, immigration and customs, public finance, currencies and extradition. Hong Kong continues using the English common law system.

On July 14, 2020, the United States signed an executive order to end the special status enjoyed by Hong Kong post-1997. As the autonomy currently enjoyed may be compromised, it could potentially impact Hong Kong’s common law legal system and may, in turn, bring about uncertainty in, for example, the enforcement of our contractual rights.

This could, in turn, materially and adversely affect our business and operations. Additionally, intellectual property rights and confidentiality protections in Hong Kong may not be as effective as in the United States or other countries. Accordingly, we cannot predict the effect of future developments in the Hong Kong legal system, including the promulgation of new laws, changes to existing laws or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, or the pre-emption of local regulations by national laws. These uncertainties could limit the legal protections available to us, including our ability to enforce our agreements with our clients.

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

Currently, all of our operations are conducted in Hong Kong outside the United States, and all of our assets are located outside the United States. A majority of our directors and officers are Hong Kong nationals or residents and a substantial portion of their assets are located in Hong Kong outside the United States. You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions in Hong Kong against us or our management named in the prospectus, as judgments entered in the United States can be enforced in Hong Kong only at common law. If you want to enforce a judgment of the United States in Hong Kong, it must be a final judgment conclusive upon the merits of the claim, for a liquidated amount in a civil matter and not in respect of taxes, fines, penalties, or similar charges, the proceedings in which the judgment was obtained were not contrary to natural justice, and the enforcement of the judgment is not contrary to public policy of Hong Kong. Such a judgment must be for a fixed sum and must also come from a “competent” court as determined by the private international law rules applied by the Hong Kong courts. In addition, the PRC does not have treaties providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments of courts with the Cayman Islands and many other countries and regions. Therefore, recognition and enforcement in the PRC of judgments of a court in any of these non-PRC jurisdictions in relation to any matter not subject to a binding arbitration provision may be difficult or impossible. For more information regarding the relevant laws of the Cayman Islands and Hong Kong, see “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities.”

Changes in international trade policies, trade disputes, barriers to trade, or the emergence of a trade war may dampen growth in Hong Kong, where the majority of our clients reside.

Political events, international trade disputes, and other business interruptions could harm or disrupt international commerce and the global economy, and they could have a material adverse effect on us and our clients, our service providers, and our other partners. International trade disputes could result in tariffs and other protectionist measures that may materially and adversely affect our business.

Tariffs could increase the cost of the services and products, which could affect clients’ investment decisions. In addition, political uncertainty surrounding international trade disputes and the potential of their escalation to trade war and global recession could have a negative effect on client confidence, which could materially and adversely affect our business. We also may have access to fewer business opportunities, and our operations may be negatively impacted as a result. In addition, the current and future actions or escalations by either the United States or China that affect trade relations may cause global economic turmoil and potentially have a negative impact on our markets, our business, or our results of operations, as well as the financial condition of our clients, and we cannot provide any assurances as to whether such actions will occur or the form that they may take.

Risks Related to The Shares

There has been no public market for our Ordinary Shares prior to this offering; if an active trading market does not develop, you may not be able to resell the Ordinary Shares at any reasonable price.

The offering under this prospectus is an IPO of our Ordinary Shares. Prior to the closing of the offering, there was no public market for the Ordinary Shares. Although an application has been made to NYSE American for the listing and quotation of the Ordinary Shares, our application may not be approved. If our application to the NYSE American is not approved or we otherwise determine that we will not be able to secure the listing of the Ordinary Shares on the NYSE American, we will not complete the offering. In addition, an active trading market may not develop following the closing or, if developed, may not be sustained. The lack of an active market may impair your ability to sell the Ordinary Shares at the time you wish to sell them or at a price that you consider reasonable. An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling the Ordinary Shares and may impair our ability to acquire other companies by using the Ordinary Shares as consideration.

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

The trading prices of the Ordinary Shares are likely to be volatile and could fluctuate widely due to factors beyond our control. This may happen due to broad market and industry factors, such as performance and fluctuation in the market prices or underperformance or deteriorating financial results of other listed companies based in Hong Kong and China. The securities of some of these companies have experienced significant volatility since their IPOs, including, in some cases, substantial price declines in the trading prices of their securities. The trading performances of other Hong Kong and PRC companies’ securities after their offerings may affect the attitudes of investors toward Hong Kong-based, U.S.-listed companies, which consequently may affect the trading performance of the Ordinary Shares, regardless of our actual operating performance. In addition, any negative news or perceptions about inadequate corporate governance practices or fraudulent accounting, corporate structure, or matters of other Hong Kong and Chinese companies may also negatively affect the attitudes of investors toward Hong Kong and Chinese companies in general, including us, regardless of whether we have conducted any inappropriate activities. Furthermore, securities markets may from time to time experience significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to our operating performance.

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

•        regulatory developments affecting us or our industry;

•        variations in our revenues, profit, and cash flow;

•        changes in the economic performance or market valuations of other financial services firms;

•        actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly results of operations and changes or revisions of our expected results;

•        changes in financial estimates by securities research analysts;

•        detrimental negative publicity about us, our services, our officers, directors, our business partners, or our industry;

•        announcements by us or our competitors of new service offerings, acquisitions, strategic relationships, joint ventures, capital raisings, or capital commitments;

•        additions to or departures of our senior management;

•        litigation or regulatory proceedings involving us, our officers, or directors;

•        release or expiry of lock-up or other transfer restrictions on our outstanding Ordinary Shares; and

•        sales or perceived potential sales of additional Ordinary Shares.

In the past, shareholders of public companies have often brought securities class action suits against those companies following periods of instability in the market price of their securities. If we were involved in a class action suit, it could divert a significant amount of our management’s attention and other resources from our business and operations and require us to incur significant expenses to defend the suit, which could harm our results of operations. Any such class action suit, whether or not successful, could harm our reputation and restrict our ability to raise capital in the future.

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

UPT is a holding company, and we rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our subsidiaries for our cash and financing requirements, including the funds necessary to pay dividends and other cash distributions to our shareholders and to service any debt we may incur. We do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We anticipate that we will retain any earnings to support operations and to finance the growth and development of our business. If any of our subsidiaries incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us.

According to the BVI Business Companies Act 2004 (as amended), a BVI company may make dividends distribution to the extent that immediately after the distribution, the value of the company’s assets exceeds its liabilities and that such company is able to pay its debts as they fall due. According to the Companies Ordinance of Hong Kong, a Hong Kong company may only make a distribution out of profits available for distribution. Under the current practice of the Inland Revenue Department of Hong Kong, no tax is payable in Hong Kong in respect to dividends paid by us. Any limitation on the ability of our Hong Kong subsidiary to pay dividends or make other distributions to us could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our business, pay dividends, or otherwise fund and conduct our business.

Any limitation on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other distributions to us could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our business, pay dividends, or otherwise fund and conduct our business.

Our lack of effective internal controls over financial reporting may affect our ability to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud, which may affect the market for and price of the Ordinary Shares.

Prior to filing the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, we were a private company with limited accounting personnel and other resources for addressing our internal control over financial reporting. Our management has not completed an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, and our independent registered public accounting firm has not conducted an audit of our internal control over financial reporting. We have identified certain material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. As defined in the standards established by the PCAOB, a “material weakness” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The material weaknesses identified related to the lack of sufficient competent financial reporting and accounting personnel with appropriate understanding of U.S. GAAP and SEC rules and regulations to address complex technical accounting issues and SEC reporting requirements. To remedy the identified material weaknesses, we intend to implement several measures to improve our internal control over financial reporting, including: (i) recruiting additional employees and external consultants with extensive knowledge of U.S. GAAP and SEC financial reporting requirements within our finance and accounting department; (ii) setting up a comprehensive accounting policy, checklists, and procedure manual in accordance with U.S. GAAP and SEC financial reporting requirements; (iii) implementing new closing and reporting procedures to ensure the accuracy and adequacy of financial data for the preparation of financial statements; (iv) conducting regular and continuous U.S. GAAP training programs and webinars for our financial reporting and accounting personnel; (v) improving financial oversight function for handling complex accounting issues under U.S. GAAP; and (vi) continuously developing and enhancing our internal audit function for the financial reporting matters. However, we cannot assure you that these measures may fully address the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting or that we may not identify additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in the future.

We will be subject to the requirement that we maintain internal controls and that management perform periodic evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal controls. Effective internal control over financial reporting is important to prevent fraud. As a result, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects, as well as the market for and trading price of the Ordinary Shares, may be materially and adversely affected if we do not have effective internal controls. We may not discover any problems in a timely manner, and in such an event, our shareholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of the Ordinary Shares. The absence of internal controls over financial reporting may inhibit investors from purchasing the Ordinary Shares and may make it more difficult for us to raise funds in a debt or equity financing. Additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may be identified in the future. If we identify such issues or if we are unable to produce accurate and timely financial statements, our stock price may decline and we may be unable to maintain compliance with the NYSE American Company Guide.

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

Following this offering, in order to maintain our listing on the NYSE American, we will be required to meet the continued listing standards of NYSE American. If we fail to comply with the applicable listing standards and NYSE American delists the Ordinary Shares, we and our shareholders could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

•        a limited availability of market quotations for the Ordinary Shares;

•        reduced liquidity for the Ordinary Shares;

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

The U.S. National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996 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 Ordinary Shares will be listed on NYSE American, such securities will be covered securities. Although the states are pre-empted from regulating the sale of our securities, this 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 NYSE American, our securities would not be covered securities and we would be subject to regulations in each state in which we offer our securities.

If you purchase the Ordinary Shares in this offering, you will incur immediate and substantial dilution in the book value of your Ordinary Shares.

If you purchase shares in this offering, you will pay substantially more than our net tangible book value per share. As a result, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution of US$2.69 per share, representing the difference between our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share of US$1.31 as of September 30, 2025, after giving effect to the net proceeds to us from this offering, assuming no change to the number of shares offered by us as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and an assumed public offering price of US$4.00 per share. See “Dilution” for a more complete description of how the value of your investment in our Ordinary Shares will be diluted upon the completion of this offering.

Our directors, officers, and principal shareholders have significant voting power and may take actions that may not be in the best interests of our other shareholders.

As of the date of this prospectus, our directors, officers, and principal shareholders hold in aggregate approximately 100% of our Ordinary Shares. We will be a “controlled company” as defined under the NYSE American Company Guide because, immediately after the completion of this offering, our Controlling Shareholders will own 10,597,500 of our total issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares through Pulse Success Limited, representing approximately 53.7% of the total voting power.

The interests of these shareholders may not be the same as or may even conflict with your interests. For example, these shareholders could attempt to delay or prevent a change in control of us, even if such change in control would benefit our other shareholders, which could deprive our shareholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their Ordinary Shares as part of a sale of us or our assets and might affect the prevailing market price of our Ordinary Shares due to investors’ perceptions that conflicts of interest may exist or arise. As a result, this concentration of ownership may not be in the best interests of our other shareholders.

The Board of Directors may decline to register the transfer of Ordinary Shares in certain circumstances.

Where the Ordinary Shares in question are not listed on or subject to the rules of the NYSE American, our board of directors may in its absolute discretion, decline to register any transfer of any Ordinary Share which has not been fully paid up or on which we have a lien. Our board of directors may also decline to register any transfer of any ordinary share unless: (i) the instrument of transfer is lodged with us, accompanied by the certificate for the ordinary shares to which it relates and such other evidence as our board of directors may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer; (ii) the instrument of transfer is in respect of only one class of shares; (iii) the instrument of transfer is properly stamped, if required; (iv) the Ordinary Share transferred is fully paid and free of any lien in favor of us; (v) in the case of a transfer to joint holders, the number of joint holders to whom the share is to be transferred does not exceed four; and (vi) a fee of such maximum sum as the NYSE American may determine to be payable or such lesser sum as our directors may from time to time require is paid to us in respect thereof. 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, on 14 days’ notice being given by advertisement in such one or more newspapers or by electronic means, 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 days in any year.

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

The board of directors has complete discretion as to whether to distribute dividends, subject to certain requirements of Cayman Islands law. In addition, our shareholders may by ordinary resolution declare a dividend, but no dividend may exceed the amount recommended by the board of directors. Under Cayman Islands law, a Cayman Islands company may pay a dividend out of either profit or share premium account, provided that under no circumstances may a dividend be paid if this would result in the company being unable to pay its debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. Even if the board of directors decides to declare and pay dividends, the timing, amount, and form of future dividends, if any, will depend on, among other things, our future results of operations and cash flow; our capital requirements and surplus; the amount of distributions, if any, received by us from our subsidiaries; and our financial condition, contractual restrictions, and other factors deemed relevant by the board of directors. Accordingly, the return on your investment in the Ordinary Shares will likely depend entirely upon any future price appreciation of the Ordinary Shares. We cannot assure you that the Ordinary Shares will appreciate in value after this offering or even maintain the price at which you purchased the Ordinary Shares. You may not realize a return on your investment in the Ordinary Shares, and you may even lose your entire investment in the Ordinary Shares. We currently intend to retain any future earnings to finance the operation and expansion of our business, and we do not expect to declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future.

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

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

Our disclosure controls and procedures may not prevent or detect all errors or acts of fraud.

Upon the Closing Date, we will become subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. We will design our disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance that information we must disclose in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, and recorded,

processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. We believe that any disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well-conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of a person, by collusion of two or more people or by an unauthorized override of the controls. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in our control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Securities analysts may not publish favorable research or reports about our business or may publish no information at all, which could cause our Ordinary Share price or trading volume to decline.

If a trading market for our Ordinary Shares develops, the trading market will be influenced to some extent by the research and reports that industry or financial analysts publish about us and our business. We do not control these analysts. As a new public company, we may be slow to attract research coverage and the analysts who publish information about our Ordinary Shares will have had relatively little experience with us or our industry, which could affect their ability to accurately forecast our results and could make it more likely that we fail to meet their estimates. In the event we obtain securities or industry analyst coverage, if any of the analysts who cover us provide inaccurate or unfavorable research or issue an adverse opinion regarding our share price, our share price could decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of us or fail to publish reports covering us regularly, we could lose visibility in the market, which in turn could cause our share price or trading volume to decline and result in the loss of all or a part of your investment in us.

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

We are an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. We conduct our operations outside the United States and substantially all of our assets are located outside the United States. In addition, most of our directors and executive officers and the experts named in this prospectus reside outside the United States, and most of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for you to bring an action against us or against them in the United States in the event that you believe that your rights have been infringed under the U.S. federal securities laws or otherwise. Even if you are successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws of the Cayman Islands, Hong Kong, or other relevant jurisdictions may render you unable to enforce a judgment against our assets or the assets of our directors and officers.

Appleby, our counsel as to the laws of the Cayman Islands, has advised us that any final and conclusive judgment for a definite sum (not being a sum payable in respect of taxes or other charges of a like nature nor a fine or other penalty) and/or certain non-monetary judgments rendered in any action or proceedings brought against our Company in a foreign court (other than certain judgments of a superior court of certain states of the Commonwealth of Australia) will be recognised as a valid judgment by the courts of the Cayman Islands without re-examination of the merits of the case. On general principles, we would expect such proceedings to be successful provided that the court which gave the judgment was competent to hear the action in accordance with private international law principles as applied in the Cayman Islands and the judgment is not contrary to public policy in the Cayman Islands, has not been obtained by fraud or in proceedings contrary to natural justice.

CFN Lawyers LLP, our counsel as to the laws of Hong Kong has advised us that there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of Hong Kong would (i) recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States, or (ii) entertain original actions brought in Hong Kong against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States. A judgment of a court in the United States predicated upon U.S. federal or state securities laws may be enforced in Hong Kong at common law by bringing an action in a Hong Kong court on that judgment for the amount due thereunder and then seeking summary judgment on the strength of the foreign judgment, provided that the foreign judgment, among other things, is (1) for a debt or a definite sum of money (not being taxes or similar charges to a foreign government taxing authority or a fine or other penalty), and (2) final and conclusive on the merits of the claim, but not otherwise. Such a judgment may not, in any event, be so enforced in Hong Kong if (a) it was obtained by fraud, (b) the proceedings in which the judgment was obtained were opposed to natural justice, (c) its enforcement or recognition would be contrary to the public policy of Hong Kong, (d) the court of the United States was not jurisdictionally competent, or (e) the judgment was in conflict

with a prior Hong Kong judgment. Hong Kong has no arrangement for the reciprocal enforcement of judgments with the United States. As a result, there is uncertainty as to the enforceability in Hong Kong, in original actions or in actions for enforcement, of judgments of U.S. courts of civil liabilities predicated solely upon the federal securities laws of the United States or the securities laws of any state or territory within the United States. See “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities.”

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

We are an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. Our corporate affairs are governed by the provisions of our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles, and by the provisions of the Companies Act and the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take action against the directors, actions by minority shareholders, and the fiduciary duties of our directors to us under Cayman Islands law are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands as well as from the common law of England, the decisions of whose courts are of persuasive authority, but are not binding, on a court in the Cayman Islands.

The rights of shareholders and the fiduciary duties of our directors and officers under Cayman Islands law are not as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedents in some jurisdictions in the United States, and some states (such as Delaware) have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law than the Cayman Islands. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholder derivative action in a federal court of the United States.

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

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 management, or members of the board of directors than they would as public shareholders of a company incorporated in the United States. For a discussion of significant differences between the provisions of the Companies Act and the laws applicable to companies incorporated in the United States and their shareholders, see “Description of Share Capital — Differences in Corporate Law.”

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

The Cayman Islands enacted the International Tax Co-operation (Economic Substance) Act (2024 Revision) (the “ES Act”) together with the Guidance Notes published by the Cayman Islands Tax Information Authority from time to time. Under the Cayman Islands ES Act, if a company is considered to be a “relevant entity” and is conducting one or more of the nine “relevant activities” then that company will be required to comply with the economic substance requirements in relation to the relevant activity from 1 July 2019. All companies whether a relevant entity or not is required to file an annual report in the Cayman Islands with the Companies Registry confirming whether or not it is carrying on any relevant activities and if it is, it must satisfy an economic substance test. If the only business activity that the Company carries on is to hold equity participation in other entities and only earns dividends and capital gains, then based on the current interpretation of the ES Act, the Company is a “pure equity holding company” and will therefore only subject to the minimum substance requirements, which require us to (i) comply with the all applicable requirements under the Companies Act and (ii) have adequate human resources and adequate premises

in the Cayman Islands for holding and managing equity participations in other entities. However, there can be no assurance that we will not be subject to more requirements under the ES Act. Uncertainties over the interpretation and implementation of the ES Act may have an adverse impact on our business and operations.

We are a foreign private issuer within the meaning of the rules under the Exchange Act, and, as such, we are exempt from certain provisions applicable to U.S. domestic public companies.

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

•        the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or current reports on Form 8-K;

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

•        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

•        the selective disclosure rules by issuers of material non-public information under Regulation FD.

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

As a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to adopt certain home country practices in relation to corporate governance matters that differ significantly from NYSE American’s corporate governance standards. These practices may afford less protection to shareholders than they would enjoy if we complied fully with NYSE American’s corporate governance standards.

As a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to take advantage of certain provisions in the NYSE American Company Guide that allow us to follow our home country law for certain governance matters. Certain corporate governance practices in our home country, the Cayman Islands, may differ significantly from corporate governance standards, except for general fiduciary duties and duties of care, Cayman Islands law has no corporate governance regime which prescribes specific corporate governance standards. Currently, we do not intend to rely on home country practices with respect to our corporate governance after we complete this offering. However, if we choose to follow home country practices in the future, our shareholders may be afforded less protection than they would otherwise enjoy under the NYSE American’s corporate governance standards applicable to U.S. domestic issuers.

In addition, our Audit Committee is not subject to additional NYSE American 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. NYSE American’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.

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

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 Ordinary Shares 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, and principal 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 NYSE American Company Guide. 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 in order to maintain a listing on a U.S. securities exchange.

There can be no assurance that we will not be a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year, which could result in adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. holders of the Ordinary Shares.

A non-U.S. corporation will be a PFIC for any taxable year if either (i) at least 75% of its gross income for such year consists of certain types of “passive” income, or (ii) at least 50% of the value of its assets (based on an average of the quarterly values of the assets) during such year is attributable to assets that produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income (the “asset test”). Based on our current and expected income and assets (taking into account the expected cash proceeds and our anticipated market capitalization following this offering), we do not presently expect to be a PFIC for the current taxable year or the foreseeable future. However, no assurance can be given in this regard because the determination of whether we are or will become a PFIC is a fact-intensive inquiry made on an annual basis that depends, in part, upon the composition of our income and assets. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) will agree with our conclusion or that the IRS would not successfully challenge our position. Fluctuations in the market price of the Ordinary Shares may cause us to become a PFIC for the current or subsequent taxable years because the value of our assets for the purpose of the asset test may be determined by reference to the market price of the Ordinary Shares. 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. If we were to be or become a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. holder holds the Ordinary Shares, certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences could apply to such U.S. holder. See “Material Tax Income Consideration — Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for U.S. Holders — PFIC Consequences.”

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 Sarbanes-Oxley for so long as we remain an emerging growth company. As a result, if we elect not to comply with such 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 companies that comply with public company effective data.

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

Upon consummation of this offering, we will incur significant legal, accounting, and other expenses as a public company that we did not incur as a private company. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley”), as well as rules subsequently implemented by the SEC, impose various requirements on the corporate governance practices of public companies. We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act and will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of this offering, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least US$1.235 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of the Ordinary Shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds US$700 million as of the end of any second fiscal quarter before that time; and (2) the date on which we have issued more than US$1 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting and other requirements

Overview of the Civil Engineering Market in Hong Kong

Definition and Segmentation of Civil Engineering

Civil engineering encompasses a wide variety of works that include the design, construction and maintenance of infrastructure, namely roads, bridges, tunnel, dams and power plants. According to Development Bureau, civil engineering works are generally classified into four segments, namely (i) ports works; (ii) roads and drainage; (iii) site formation; and (iv) waterworks. In particular:

—     Roads works are usually grouped into two types, namely (i) construction of new roads, such as expressways, trunk roads, primary distributor roads, district distributor roads and local distributor roads, and (ii) maintenance of existing roads. Drainage and other works refer to construction, improvement and maintenance of sewage treatment facilities, storm water drainage facilities, as well as waste management and power plants.

—     Site formation works include excavations on sloping land, filling, landslip preventive works, landslip remedial works, and ground water drainage works. These works are necessary to prepare a piece of land for foundation works and the subsequent construction of buildings and other structures through preparation of land with required orientation, shape or levels that can accommodate particularly buildings and facilities.

Value Chain Analysis

Subcontracting is a common practice in civil engineering industry whereby main contractors subcontract the large scale projects to other contractors with specialist licences or capabilities in certain areas, including road and drainage works and site formation works, based on the track records, business relationship and capital requirements. In public sector, leading main contractors tender for the projects from the Government and government related organisations, which are then assigned to one or more subcontractors.

Joint venture, which refers to a business form that two or more person or entity engaged in a single defined project, is generally adopted by contractors for sizable civil engineering works. Key benefits of joint venture include enhancement of resources (e.g. capital and equipment) and technical expertise, as well as share the risk and costs involved. Establishment of joint venture is required for some large-scaled infrastructure projects by public owners.

Client concentration is a common occurrence within the civil engineering sector, in both public and private sector. The availability of construction works in Hong Kong depends on the Hong Kong Government’s spending on construction and infrastructure in Hong Kong and its land supply policy, the approval of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong, and the investment plans and strategies of property developers.

Gross Value of Civil Engineering Works in Hong Kong

The total gross value of construction works (GVCW) performed by main contractors in the fourth quarter of 2024 increased by 9.4% in nominal terms over a year earlier to $77.8 billion, according to the provisional results of the Quarterly Survey of Construction Output released on March 11, 2025 by the Census and Statistics Department. After discounting the effect of price changes, the provisional results showed that the total GVCW performed by main contractors increased by 7.2% in real terms over the same period. Analysed by type of construction works, the GVCW performed at private sector sites totalled $22.4 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024, down by 3.6% in nominal terms over a year earlier. In real terms, it decreased by 5.6%. The GVCW performed at public sector sites increased by 32.7% in nominal terms over a year earlier to $32.5 billion in the fourth quarter of 2024. In real terms, it increased by 30.9%.

The Northern Metropolis development will have a significant impact on the civil engineering and construction sector in Hong Kong. In particular, the development of the “Northern Metropolis University Town” will require the construction of new campuses and facilities, with the government reserving more than 60 hectares of land in Hung Shui Kiu/Ha Tsuen, Ngau Tam Mei, and New Territories North New Town for this purpose. The construction of the Hong Kong-Shenzhen Innovation and Technology Park (HSITP) in the Loop and the adjacent Shenzhen I&T Zone will also involve substantial civil engineering work to develop the necessary infrastructure and buildings. Furthermore, the development of the four major zones, namely High-end Professional Services and Logistics Hub, I&T Zone, Boundary Commerce and Industry Zone, and Blue and Green Recreation, Tourism and Conservation Circle will necessitate the construction of various commercial, industrial, and recreational facilities. Lastly, the planned transport infrastructure projects, such as the Hong Kong-Shenzhen Western Rail Link (Hung Shui Kiu — Qianhai), Northern Metropolis Highway, and Route 11, will require extensive civil engineering work, contributing to the growth of the sector. As estimated by the Development Bureau, the total cost of projects in the Northern Metropolis will exceed HK$224 billion.

Growth Drivers

Sustained supply of residential units

The Hong Kong Long Term Housing Strategy was announced in 2014 to be the first long-term strategic document in housing since 1998, with three strategic directions set out to, among other things, stabilize the residential property market through steady land supply and timely demand-side management measures, and to promote good sales and tenancy practices for private residential properties. According to the Long Term Housing Strategy Annual Progress Report 2022, the projected housing demand based on established mechanism for the ten-year period from 2023 – 24 to 2032 – 33 is 421,000 units (rounded up to 430,000 units), and the Hong Kong government has set a target of supplying 301,000 public housing units and 129,000 private housing units.

Urban Renewal Program

According to the Planning Department of Hong Kong, assuming no demolition, there will be 326,000 private housing units aged 70 or above by 2046, and there is an urgent need to step up the rejuvenation of dilapidated urban areas, especially for those located at densely built urban core, such as Sham Shui Po and Kowloon City. As stated in

the Annual Report 2019 – 20 of Urban Renewal Authority, there were more than 10,000 buildings in Hong Kong aged 50 years or above, and the number is forecast to reach 28,000 by 2046. To address the aging problem, the Hong Kong government has increased the three-year target of 10,000 transitional housing units within the next three years to 15,000 units, order to relieve the pressure of families living in unpleasant living conditions. Moreover, with a growing emphasis on the preservation of these aged buildings by the means of proper repair and maintenance work under the Integrated Building Rehabilitation Assistance Scheme and Operating Building Bright 2.0, there is a rising demand for building demolition and development, building additions, and alterations work.

Entry barriers

Industry experience

Knowledge of civil engineering, geology, and technical expertise are several of the barriers to enter the foundation industry, given that such industry knowledge can only be accumulated through years of formal education, and vocational, and on-site practical training. Potential players that lack industry experience would encounter difficulties when entering the industry.

Sufficient capital and adequate capital management

Sufficient capital for project initiations and adequate capital management throughout the construction process to finance project operations are two essential factors for new entrants to take into consideration. Before project initiations, contractors have to ensure an abundant amount of cash for procurement of raw materials, leasing specialized machinery, recruitment of skilled labor, and other payment for its suppliers and subcontractors. During the construction process, sufficient capital is also required to guarantee the payment of wages, surety bond, and machinery rental for operation work, as contractors often need to pay for their suppliers and subcontractors before getting paid by their customers.

Overview of the C&D Material Handling Industry in Hong Kong

In the past, when materials were scarce and expensive in comparison to labor costs, a large amount of construction and demolition materials had to be salvaged and reused through rehabilitation and reclamation. With the prosperity and rapid development of Hong Kong, the industry became less concerned with conservation of natural resources. Resources were disposed as waste in landfills and considered an extra expense of doing business.

To tackle the large amount of solid waste generated, the Hong Kong government issued a series of waste management policies in the last twenty years. One of the most significant policies is the launch of an off-site construction waste sorting (“CWS”) program based on the “polluter pays principle.” Since its implementation in 2006, the off-site CWS program had contributed considerably to the reduction of construction waste. The program involves sorting of construction waste and disposal at public filling areas, mixed sorting facilities or landfills depending on the type of material.

The Hong Kong government has implemented a Trip Ticket System (the “TTS”) for public works contracts, where C&D materials including waste generated on site require disposal. The TTS aims to track and control the flow of C&D materials, so as to prevent unauthorized disposal. Under the TTS proper records for tracking the C&D materials to disposal facilities, whether the destination is public fill reception facilities, sorting facilities, outlying island transfer facilities, landfills or other alternative disposal grounds. Under the current regime, contractors may only dispose of C&D materials arising from public works contracts to the above destinations. Alternative disposal grounds may be proposed by the contractor, which includes private construction sites (administered by authorized persons as defined under the Buildings Ordinance (Cap. 123)), private recycling facilities (on the recycler’s list for C&D materials recognized by the EPD) or construction sites of the Hong Kong Government, Hong Kong Housing Authority and Mass Transit Railway Corporation. In assessing a proposal of an alternative disposal ground, the architect, engineer, supervising officer or maintenance surveyor of the relevant project shall consult the relevant government departments for approval.

The Hong Kong government’s actions to curb the amount of overall waste disposed of in landfills has led to a decline in the overall amount of waste, including construction waste disposed of in landfills. The overall quantity of construction waste generation in 2023 dropped by about 4,300 tonnes per day (9 per cent) as compared to 2022, to 45, 560 tonnes per day on average, of which more than 90 per cent of construction waste (41 132 tonnes per day) was reused. Regarding construction waste disposed of at landfills, the quantity increased by 300 tonnes per day (7 per cent)

as compared to 2022, reaching 4,428 tonnes per day in 2023. The rise is believed to stem from an increase in both the numbers of companies that ceased operation and started new business in 2023 compared to 2022, thereby generating more construction waste associated with renovation and demolition works.

Role of C&D waste disposal facilities for the construction industry in Hong Kong

There are four types of waste disposal facilities in Hong Kong, namely public fill facilities, sorting facilities, landfills and outlying islands transferring facilities. Each type of facility will only accept C&D materials that meet certain criteria.

Public fill facilities

Public fill facilities accept materials consisting entirely of inert construction waste. The inert construction waste can be further used for land reclamation and site formation after disposal. Public fill facilities include public filling areas, public filling barging points, public fill stockpiling areas, fill banks and C&D materials recycling facility. Particularly, public filling areas are designated part of a development project that accepts public fill for reclamation purpose; public filling barging points are strategically located public fill reception facilities that utilize barge transportation to transfer public fill; public fill stockpiling areas are newly reclaimed land where public fill is stockpiled as surcharging material to accelerate the settlement process. Moreover, fill banks are areas allocated for temporary stockpile of public fill for later use; C&D materials recycling facilities are facilities that process hard inert materials into recycled aggregates and granular materials for use in future construction activities.

Sorting facilities

To maximize service efficiency, sorting facilities accept mixed C&D materials containing more than 50% by weight of inert construction waste. This arrangement helps waste producers, particularly small construction sites that do not have enough space, carry out on-site sorting.

In the current practice, the sorting facilities will use two measures determining whether the C&D materials are able to meet the criteria. The measures include weight ratio and depth of waste. With these two indicators, the sorting facilities will calculate and justify whether the incoming material contains more than 50% of inert C&D materials by weight. Once the waste meets the criteria, it can be accepted for further processing. It should be highlighted that after going through all the sorting processes, the mixed construction waste can be eventually sorted into two piles, namely, inert materials and non-inert materials. The inert materials will be sent to the public fill reception facilities while the non-inert materials are considered waste and will be landfilled.

Landfills

Mixed C&D waste containing no more than 50% by weight of inert construction waste can be disposed of at strategic landfills.

Outlying islands transferring facilities

Outlying islands transferring facilities accept any percentage of inert C&D waste and are responsible for transferring C&D waste from outlying islands to waste disposal facilities.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Based upon an assumed IPO price of $4.00 per Ordinary Share, we estimate that we will receive net proceeds from this offering, after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and the estimated offering expenses payable by us, of approximately $22,017,783 if the Underwriters do not exercise their Over-Allotment Option, and $25,647,783 if the Underwriters exercise their Over-Allotment Option in full, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance, and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

Each $1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed IPO price of $4.00 per Ordinary Share (the low end of the estimated price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus) would increase (decrease) the net proceeds to us from this offering by $5,750,000, assuming that the number of Shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance and estimated offering expenses payable by us. An increase (decrease) of 1 million in the number of Shares we are offering would increase (decrease) the net proceeds to us from this offering by $3,680,000, assuming the assumed IPO price remains the same, and after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance, and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

The primary purpose of this offering is to create a public market for the Ordinary Shares for the benefit of all shareholders. We plan to use the net proceeds of this offering as follows:

•        Approximately 50% for the acquisition of additional machineries;

•        Approximately 30% for the expansion of our workforce; and

•        Approximately 20% for enhancing our training program.

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

Changes in business conditions that could cause us to modify our use of proceeds include, but are not limited to:

•        Significant changes in market conditions affecting our industry;

•        Material adverse changes in our financial condition;

•        Unexpected operational challenges requiring additional working capital; and

•        Changes in government regulations affecting our planned use of proceeds.

To the extent that the net proceeds we receive from this offering are not immediately used for the above purposes, we intend to invest our net proceeds in short-term, interest-bearing bank deposits or debt instruments.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We currently intend to retain all available funds and future earnings, if any, for the operation and expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate declaring or paying any dividends in the foreseeable future.

During the six months ended September 30, 2025 and the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, UPT did not declare or pay any dividends and there was no transfer of assets among UPT and its subsidiaries.

During the six months ended September 30, 2025 and the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, our Operating Subsidiary did not declare or pay any dividends.

Subject to the Cayman Islands laws and our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles, our board of directors has complete discretion as to whether to distribute dividends. Our Company may only pay dividends out of profits or share premium, and provided always 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.

In addition, our shareholders may by ordinary resolution declare a dividend, but no dividend may exceed the amount recommended by our board of directors. Even if our board of directors decides to pay dividends, the timing, amount and form of future dividends, if any, will depend on, among other things, our future results of operations and cash flow, our capital requirements and surplus, the amount of distributions, if any, received by us from our subsidiaries, our financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors. Please see the section entitled “Material Income Tax Considerations — Cayman Islands Taxation” of this prospectus for information on the potential tax consequences of any cash dividends declared.

As we are a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands, we rely on dividends paid to us by our subsidiaries for our cash requirements, including funds to pay any dividends and other cash distributions to our shareholders, service any debt we may incur, and pay our operating expenses. Our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders will depend on, among other things, the availability of dividends from our subsidiaries. According to the BVI Business Companies Act 2004 (as amended), a BVI company may make dividends distribution to the extent that immediately after the distribution, the value of the company’s assets exceeds its liabilities and that such company is able to pay its debts as they fall due. According to the Companies Ordinance of Hong Kong, a Hong Kong company may only make a distribution out of profits available for distribution. Under the current practice of the Inland Revenue Department of Hong Kong, no tax is payable in Hong Kong in respect to dividends paid by us.

Cash dividends, if any, on the Ordinary Shares will be paid in U.S. dollars.

CAPITALIZATION

The following table sets forth our capitalization as of September 30, 2025, on:

•        an actual basis; and

•        a pro forma as adjusted basis to give effect to the sale of 6,250,000 of the Ordinary Shares in this offering at the assumed IPO price of US$4.00 per Ordinary Share after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance, and estimated offering expenses payable by us, assuming the Underwriters do not exercise the Over-Allotment Option.

You should read this information together with our unaudited interim condensed financial statements appearing elsewhere in this prospectus and the information set forth under the sections titled “Exchange Rate Information,” “Use of Proceeds,” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

____________

(1)      Reflects the sale of Ordinary Shares in this offering at an assumed IPO of US$4.00 per Ordinary Share, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance, and estimated offering expenses payable by us. The pro forma as adjusted information is illustrative only, and we will adjust this information based on the actual IPO price and other terms of this offering determined at pricing. Additional paid-in capital reflects the net proceeds we expect to receive after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions (underwriting discount equal to 7.0% per Ordinary Share), and estimated offering expenses payable by us US$982,217. We estimate that such net proceeds will be approximately US$22,017,783. For an itemization of an estimation of the total offering expenses payable by us, see “Expenses Related to this Offering.”

DILUTION

If you invest in the Ordinary Shares in this offering, your interest will be immediately diluted to the extent of the difference between the IPO price per Ordinary Share in this offering and the net tangible book value per Ordinary Share after this offering. Dilution results from the fact that the IPO price per Ordinary Share is substantially in excess of the net tangible book value per Ordinary Share. As of September 30, 2025, we had a historical net tangible book value of US$3,416,929, or US$0.25 per Ordinary Share. Our net tangible book value per Ordinary Share represents total tangible assets less intangible asset, all divided by the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding as of September 30, 2025.

After giving effect to the sale of Ordinary Shares in this offering at the assumed IPO price of US$4.00 per Ordinary Share, we will have 19,750,000 Ordinary Shares outstanding, and after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance, and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value at September 30, 2025, would have been US$25,790,053, or US$1.31 per Ordinary Share. This represents an immediate increase in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value of US$1.06 per Ordinary Share to existing investors and immediate dilution of US$2.69 per Ordinary Share to new investors. The following table illustrates this dilution to new investors purchasing Ordinary Shares in this offering:

____________

(1)      Assumes gross proceeds from the offering of 6,250,000 Ordinary Shares, and assumes that the Over-Allotment Option has not been exercised.

(2)      Assumes gross proceeds from the offering of 7,187,500 Ordinary Shares, and assumes that the Over-Allotment Option has been exercised in full.

Each US$1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed IPO price of US$4.00 per Ordinary Share would increase (decrease) our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of September 30, 2025, after this offering by approximately US$0.29 per Ordinary Share, and would increase (decrease) dilution to new investors by US$0.71 per Ordinary Share, assuming that the number of Ordinary Shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance, and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

If the Underwriters exercise their Over-Allotment Option in full, the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per Ordinary Share after this offering would be US$1.41, the increase in net tangible book value per Ordinary Share to existing shareholders would be US$1.16, and the immediate dilution in net tangible book value per Ordinary Share to new investors in this offering would be US$2.59.

To the extent that we issue additional Ordinary Shares in the future, there will be further dilution to new investors participating in this offering.

The following table summarizes, on a pro forma basis as of September 30, 2025, the differences between the existing shareholders and the new investors with respect to the number of Ordinary Shares purchased from us in this offering, the total consideration paid, and the average price per Ordinary Share paid at the assumed IPO price of US$4.00 per Ordinary Shares, which is the low end of the range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, before deducting estimated underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses. The total number of Ordinary Shares does not include the Over-Allotment Option.

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

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion and analysis and other parts of this prospectus contain forward-looking statements based upon current beliefs, plans and expectations that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results and the timing of selected events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of several factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus. You should carefully read the “Risk Factors” section of this prospectus to gain an understanding of the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our forward-looking statements.

Overview

We are a construction contractor and transportation and machinery rental service provider with long operating history in Hong Kong. We have started our operation in the construction industry since 2015, mainly as a subcontractor. As a subcontractor, we provide our customers with three major construction related solutions, which include (i) civil engineering works, (ii) soil and rock transportation services and (iii) machinery rental services.

Our direct customers are generally main contractors of various building and infrastructure construction projects in Hong Kong and the ultimate owners of the projects undertaken by us mainly include property developers in Hong Kong as well as the Hong Kong government. Our project portfolio consists mainly of public sectors projects in Hong Kong, which include infrastructure and public facilities developments. We take pride in the quality of works which we deliver and we have developed stable relationship with a majority of our customers over the years.

UPT HK, our principal operating subsidiary, is registered with the Hong Kong Construction Industry Council as a Registered Specialist Trade Contractor under the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme.

Key Factors that Affect Results of Operations

Our results of operations have been and will continue to be affected by various factors, including those set out below:

Market demand

The demand for our construction, transportation and machinery rental services is driven by the development of the construction industry in Hong Kong, where development of residential, commercial, industrial and infrastructure projects are the main drivers of demand. The timing, size and nature of these projects will, on the other hand, be determined by a number of factors such as the Hong Kong government’s spending budget on construction projects, the investment of property developers and the general conditions and prospects of Hong Kong economy.

Political condition and laws and regulations in Hong Kong

Our principal business activities are carried on in Hong Kong only. Hong Kong is a Special Administrative Region of China, which is governed under a principle of “One Country, Two Systems” and has the Hong Kong Basic Law as the constitutional documents setting out China’s policies regarding Hong Kong, which essentially let Hong Kong people administer Hong Kong with a high degree of autonomy. However, due to the long-arm provisions under the current Chinese laws and regulations, the Chinese government may exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business and may intervene in or influence our operations at any time, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our Ordinary Shares. Accordingly, our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations may be influenced to a significant degree by the political, economic, and social conditions in China generally and by the continued economic growth in China as a whole. Accordingly, our results of operations and prospects are, to a significant degree, subject to economic, political, and legal developments in China.

Competition from other players in the market

We generally secure our engineering projects through tendering. We submit a quotation or tender price for a project that is based on our project cost estimate and a mark-up margin. The construction industry in Hong Kong is highly competitive, and our prospective clients generally look for a few quotations from several service providers

alongside us to make comparison and negotiation. We thus generally scale down our mark-up margin to be submitted to the project owner when competition for a project is perceived to be intense, and hence, the operating profit margin and our results of operation may be adversely affected.

Cost control and management

Our cost of revenues mainly comprised subcontracting charges, fuel costs, depreciation of machinery and direct labor costs. Although we determine our project prices based on a cost-plus method with reference to estimated time and cost to be involved in a project, the actual time and costs incurred in completing our foundation and related projects may be adversely changed when market conditions change or there are adverse weather conditions, labor shortage, project delay or unforeseeable adverse site conditions. Therefore, any failure to control and manage the cost and time involved in a project or failure to identify buys for reusable excavated materials may give rise to delays in completion of work and/or cost overruns, which in turn may materially and adversely affect our financial condition, profitability, and liquidity.

Our ability to attract new customers and secure new projects

Our continuing growth depends in large part on the recognition of our reliability, quality, safety, and timeliness by our customers. In order to attract new customers and continue to expand our customer base, we must appeal to and attract customers who identify with our project management expertise. In addition, our projects are non-recurrent in nature, and our future success depends in part on our ability to increase our project backlog over time. If we are unable to replenish our project backlog when existing projects are completed, our turnover and, hence, results of operations may have a material decline and we may also suffer from higher staff turnover.

Income and profits taxes

Cayman Islands

The Company is incorporated in the Cayman Islands. The Cayman Islands currently levy no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains or appreciations and there is no taxation in the nature of inheritance tax or estate duty. There are no other taxes likely to be material to our Company 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. There are no exchange control regulations or currency restrictions in the Cayman Islands.

Payments of dividends and capital in respect of our 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 ordinary shares, as the case may be, nor will gains derived from the disposal of our ordinary shares be subject to Cayman Islands income or corporation tax.

The Cayman Islands enacted the International Tax Co-operation (Economic Substance) Act (Revised) together with the Guidance Notes published by the Cayman Islands Tax Information Authority from time to time. The Company is required to comply with the economic substance requirements from July 1, 2019 and make an annual report in the Cayman Islands as to whether or not it is carrying on any relevant activities and if it is, it must satisfy an economic substance test.

BVI

We own Pulse Success Limited, which is incorporated in the BVI and is not subject to tax on income or capital gains under current BVI law. In addition, upon payments of dividends by these entities to their shareholders, no BVI withholding tax will be imposed.

Hong Kong

We own UPT HK, our operating subsidiary, through Uptrend Investment Development Limited. UPT HK is incorporated in Hong Kong and is subject to Hong Kong profits tax at a two-tiered rate of 8.25% for the assessable profits of first HK$2 million and 16.5% for the remaining assessable profits. Under Hong Kong tax law, UPT HK is exempted from income tax on its foreign-derived income, and there is no withholding tax in Hong Kong on remittance of dividends.

New accounting standards

See the discussion of the changes of accounting standards contained in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, “Adoption of new accounting standards”.

Results of Operations

Six months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the six months ended September 30, 2024

The following table sets forth a summary of the consolidated results of operations of us for the periods indicated, both in absolute amount and as a percentage of year-on-year growth.

Contract revenues

Our contract revenues increased by 37.0% to US$5,636,773 (of which US$4,763,497 were generated from related parties) for the six months ended September 30, 2025, from US$4,144,048 (of which US$2,730,770 were generated from related parties) for the six months ended September 30, 2024. This growth was primarily driven by an increase in project volume, with 19 projects contributed revenues as compared to 10 in 2024. Although transportation service demand declined during the six months ended September 30, 2025, we generated US$307,579 by shifting to machinery rentals for related parties.

The following table sets out our contract revenues generated from different services during the six months ended September 30 2025 and 2024:

Civil engineering works remained as a major source of our revenues over the six months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, which represented 78.8% of our contract revenues during the six months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to 60.8% of total revenues during the corresponding period in 2024. Revenues from civil engineering works grew by 77.6% to US$4,441,222 for the six months ended September 30, 2025, from US$2,501,032 for the six months ended September 30, 2024. We recognized revenues from 16 projects during the six months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to 7 projects in the corresponding period in 2024. Our construction projects generally had a construction period of 1 to 4 years. In response to a temporary decline in demand for soil and rock transportation during the six months ended September 30, 2025, we leased idling machinery to related parties. This generated US$307,579 in revenue, compared to no such revenue during the same period in 2024.

Cost of revenues

Our total cost of revenues increased by 50.0% to US$4,171,280 for the six months ended September 30, 2025, from US$2,780,711 for the six months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was slightly higher than the increase in contract revenues. The cost of revenues represented the costs for performing civil engineering construction activities as we recorded significant growth of revenues in the sector during fiscal year 2025, the transportation costs for our sorting and transportation of C&D materials under our transportation services, and depreciation of machinery under machinery rental services. Our cost of revenues mainly comprised direct labor costs, fuel costs, depreciation of machinery and subcontracting charges.

The following table sets out our cost of revenues generated from different services during the two years ended March 31, 2025:

Gross profit and gross profit margin

Our gross profit increased by 9.9% to US$1,465,493 for the six months ended September 30, 2025, from US$1,333,337 for the six months ended September 30, 2024. Our gross profit margin dropped to 26.0% for the six months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to 32.4% for the six months ended September 30, 2024. The following table summarizes the gross profit and gross profit margin of different segments for the periods indicated:

The lower gross profit margin was primarily due to overhead of maintaining the fleet of machinery while there was lower demand for the soil and rock transportation services.

General and administrative expenses

For the six months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related compensation expenses, including management fee, professional services fees, office supplies, utilities, communication and expenses related to general operations. The following table sets forth a breakdown of our general and administrative expenses for the six months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

The decrease in general and administrative expenses was mainly due to (i) the reversal of provision for expected credit losses of US$49,082 during the six months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to provision for expected credit losses of US$60,129 during the six months ended September 30, 2024; and (ii) decrease in accounting/audit fees by US$339,480. These savings were partially offset by an 18.4% increase in staff costs, which rose to US$163,528 for the six months ended September 30, 2025, from US$138,121 in the corresponding period of 2024.

Interest expenses

Our interest expense is mainly related to our interest expenses incurred by finance leases of motor vehicles, machinery and bank loans. Our interest expense increased by 81.5% to US$49,442 for the six months ended September 30, 2025, from US$27,242 for the six months ended September 30, 2024. The interest expenses increased because of new bank loans taken out near and after September 30, 2024.

Provision for income taxes

The Group is not subject to any income tax in the Cayman Islands and the BVI pursuant to the rules and regulations in those jurisdictions, but our major operating subsidiary, UPT, is subject to Hong Kong profits tax. Provision for income taxes was US$172,945 for the six months ended September 30, 2025, increased by 170.3% from US$63,985 for the six months ended September 30, 2024. Effective tax rate for the six months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was 14.7% and 12.4%, respectively.

Net income

Our net income increased by 122.0% to US$1,003,237 for the six months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to US$451,891 for the six months ended September 30, 2024. Net profit margins were 17.8% and 11.0% for the six months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in net income was mainly due to the increase in gross profit and savings in general and administrative expenses.

Year ended March 31, 2025, compared to year ended March 31, 2024

The following table sets forth a summary of the consolidated results of operations of us for the periods indicated, both in absolute amount and as a percentage of year-on-year growth.

Contract revenues

Our contract revenues increased by 43.9% to US$8,290,827 (of which US$5,786,743 were generated from related parties) for the year ended March 31, 2025, from US$5,762,307 (of which US$3,655,726 were generated from related parties) for the year ended March 31, 2024. The contract revenues increase was principally a result of the increasing number of projects we were involved in.

The following table sets out our contract revenues generated from different services during the two years ended March 31, 2025:

Civil engineering works as a source of our contract revenues gained traction during the year ended March 31, 2025, which represented 69.3% of our contract revenues during the fiscal year 2025, as compared to 46.0% of total revenues during fiscal year 2024. Revenues from civil engineering works grew by 116.8% to US$5,747,334 for the year ended March 31, 2025, from US$2,650,972 for the year ended March 31, 2024. We performed services in 16 subcontracting projects in fiscal year 2025, as compared to 4 subcontracting projects in fiscal year 2024. Our construction projects generally had a construction period of 1 to 3 years.

Soil and rock transportation services, on the other hand, remained our significant source of contract revenues. This segment contributed 30.7% and 54.0% of our contract revenues for the year ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Revenues from soil and rock transportation services decreased by 18.3% to US$2,543,493 for the year ended March 31, 2025, from US$3,111,335 for the year ended March 31, 2024. We had 2 and 2 major soil and rock transportation services projects in fiscal year 2025 and 2024.

Cost of contract revenues

Our total cost of contract revenues increased by 46.2% to US$5,760,046 for the year ended March 31, 2025, from US$3,940,347 for the year ended March 31, 2024. The increase was mainly in line with the increase in contract revenues. The cost of contract revenues represented the costs for performing civil engineering construction activities as we recorded significant growth of revenues in the sector during fiscal year 2025 and the transportation costs for our sorting and transportation of C&D materials under our transportation services. Our cost of contract revenues mainly comprised direct labor costs, fuel costs, depreciation of machinery and subcontracting charges.

The following table sets out our cost of contract revenues generated from different services during the two years ended March 31, 2025:

Gross profit and gross profit margin

Our gross profit increased by 38.9% to US$2,530,781 for the year ended March 31, 2025, from US$1,821,960 for the year ended March 31, 2024. Our gross profit margin was kept at around the same level at 30.5% for the year ended March 31, 2025, as compared to 31.6% for the year ended March 31, 2024. The following table summarizes the gross profit and gross profit margin of different segments for the periods indicated:

General and administrative expenses

For the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, our general and administrative expenses consisted mainly of staff cost, rental expense, legal and professional fees, accounting/audit fees, provision for expected credit loss and others. The following table sets forth a breakdown of our general and administrative expenses for the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024:

Our general and administrative expenses increased by 127.0% to US$1,223,534 for the year ended March 31, 2025, from US$538,927 for the year ended March 31, 2024, principally due to the increase of expenses incurred for our IPO, staff costs and provision for expected credit losses. As we had more projects on hand and increased in corporate size, we recruited more employees.

Interest expenses

Our interest expense is mainly related to our interest expenses incurred by finance leases of motor vehicles, machinery and bank loans. Our interest expense increased by 140.7% to US$82,302 for the year ended March 31, 2025, from US$34,189 for the year ended March 31, 2024. The interest expenses increased because of new additions of motor vehicles and machinery by way of finance leases and taking out of three bank borrowings during fiscal year 2025.

Provision for income taxes

The Group is not subject to any income tax in the Cayman Islands and the BVI pursuant to the rules and regulations in those jurisdictions, but our major operating subsidiary, UPT, is subject to Hong Kong profits tax. Provision for income taxes was US$180,942 for the year ended March 31, 2025, slightly decreased by 2.0% from US$184,615 for the year ended March 31, 2024. Effective tax rate for the years ended March 31, 2024 and 2025 was 14.8% and 14.8%, respectively.

Net income

Our net income decreased by 1.9% to US$1,044,051 for the year ended March 31, 2025, as compared to US$1,064,302 for the year ended March 31, 2024. Net profit margins were 12.6% and 18.5% for the year ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in net income was mainly due to the increase in general and administrative expenses as we incurred significant listing expenses for our IPO, which we expect are non-recurring in nature after recognizing the remaining IPO expenses in fiscal year 2026.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flows

Our use of cash was primarily related to operating activities and purchase of property, plant and equipment and entering into finance leases. We have historically financed our operations primarily through our cash flow generated from our operations and funds advanced from related parties.

We believe we have sufficient cash generated from operations to meet our regular working capital requirements based on the contracts on hand and cashflow projection for the next 12 months from September 30, 2025, which is also based on our management’s experience and the financial data available.

We have carefully formulated future strategic plans to grow our business after obtaining funding from the IPO, which will enable us to undertake more construction projects. We plan to deploy IPO proceeds in acquiring additional plant and machinery and expanding our workforce. In addition, in the event of insufficient liquidity to meet our current obligations, the Company may consider plans to raise capital by offering additional shares or tapping into an appropriate capital market.

Contractual Obligations

The following table summarized our contractual obligations, which include operating leases, finance leases and bank loans, as of September 30, 2025:

The following table summarized our contractual obligations, which include operating leases, finance leases and bank loans, as of March 31, 2025:

The following table summarized our contractual obligations, which include operating leases and finance leases, as of March 31, 2024:

Finance lease obligations

We in general purchase plant and equipment under finance leases. All of our finance leases were denominated in Hong Kong dollars and the interest rates of our obligations under finance leases are fixed at the contract date in the range of 3.55% to 4.75% per annum. The obligations under finance leases were secured by the lessor’s charge over the relevant machinery, equipment or motor vehicles and may also be guaranteed by a related party. As of September 30, 2025, there were 11 finance leases for motor vehicles and machinery. The finance leases provided for the period of hire, monthly instalment amount and the option fee for purchasing the vehicles upon expiry of the leases.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements, including arrangements that would affect its liquidity, capital resources, market risk support, credit risk support, or other benefits.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

Credit risk

Assets that potentially subject us to a significant concentration of credit risk primarily consist of cash, contract receivable, retention receivable and other current assets. We believe that there is no significant credit risk associated with cash, which was held by reputable financial institutions in the jurisdictions where the Company and its subsidiaries are located. The Hong Kong Deposit Protection Board pays compensation up to a limit of HK$800,000 (approximately US$102,816) if the bank with which an individual/company holds its eligible deposit fails. As of September 30, 2025, cash balance of US$47,138 was maintained at financial institutions in Hong Kong.

We have designed our credit policies with the objective of minimizing exposure to credit risk. Other than retention receivable which may be held by our customers for more than a year, our “contract receivables” are very short term, generally granted by us at 30 to 45 days, which may be longer depending on our customer’s reputation and the transaction history with us, in nature and the associated risk is minimal. We conduct credit evaluations of our customers and generally do not require collateral or other security from such customers. We periodically evaluate the creditworthiness of the existing customers to ascertain receivables value at credit risk. In particular, we estimate allowance for credit loss the details of which are discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements.

Foreign currency risk

We are exposed to foreign currency risk primarily through service income or expenses that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the operations to which they relate. The currencies giving rise to this risk are primarily US$. As HK$ is currently pegged to US$, our exposure to foreign exchange fluctuations is minimal.

Interest rate risk

We have finance leases and bank loans in place which have fixed interest rates throughout the lease periods. Interest rates of the finance leases are fixed at inception of the leases, which in turn relates to the prevailing market interest rate. We do not have an interest rate hedging policy to hedge against the risk of fluctuating interest rates. However, our management closely monitors interest rate exposures, assesses the Group’s position to take out new bank loans or finance leases.

During the two years ended March 31, 2025 and six months ended September 30, 2025, we did not have any floating rate bank borrowings or facilities. Although we deposited our cash in interest bearing bank accounts, the interest income recorded during the period was rather negligible.

During the two years ended March 31, 2025 and six months ended September 30, 2025, we took out 3 bank loans to finance our operation. The three bank loans had principal amounts of HK$2.7 million, HK$2.7 million and HK$1.5 million and had a fixed interest rate of 9.2%, 7.4% and 4.9% per annum, respectively, throughout their tenor. Our management would consider the impact of changing interest rates in the future when evaluating taking out or rolling over existing bank loans that would have either a fixed or floating interest rate in order to minimize interest expenses or exposure to interest rate risk.

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingencies at the date of the consolidated financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. As a result, management is required to routinely make judgments and estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different conditions or assumptions.

Significant accounting policy is both material to the presentation of consolidated financial statements and requires management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments that could have a material effect on financial condition or results of operations. Accounting estimates and assumptions may become critical when they are material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change, and that have a material impact on financial condition or operating performance.

BUSINESS

Overview

We are a holding company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with operations conducted in Hong Kong by our Operating Subsidiary, UPT HK. We have been operating principally as a subcontractor in the Hong Kong construction industry since 2015. As a subcontractor, we provide our customers with three major construction related solutions, which include (i) civil engineering services, (ii) soil and rock transportation services and (iii) machinery rental services.

Our direct customers are generally main contractors of various building and infrastructure construction projects in Hong Kong and the ultimate owners of the projects undertaken by us mainly include property developers in Hong Kong as well as the Hong Kong government. Our project portfolio consists mainly of public sectors projects in Hong Kong, which include infrastructure and public facilities developments. We take pride in the quality of works which we deliver and we have developed stable relationship with a majority of our customers over the years.

In recognition of our achievements in the construction industry in Hong Kong, our Operating Subsidiary has been granted registration as a Registered Specialist Trade Contractor under the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme (formerly known as the Subcontractor Registration Scheme) of the Construction Industry Council.

Our Competitive Strengths

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

We have an established track record in the construction industry in Hong Kong

Since the inception of our Operating Subsidiary in 2015, we have been striving to provide comprehensive construction related solutions to our valued customers and in our operating history of over nine years, we have built up our expertise in civil engineering works as well as our reputation as a dedicated civil engineering subcontractor in the construction industry in Hong Kong. Our ability to consistently achieve customer satisfaction has earned returning customers, which in turn also bring new project opportunities to us by referrals. Over the years, we have been awarded by our customers, some of which are leading property developers, with medium to large scale construction work projects of various nature in public sectors including, but not limited to, commercial offices, private residential buildings, infrastructures, public housing, government offices. Leveraging our proven track record and our established customer network, we are confident that the demand for our services will continue to grow in the future and we will be able to achieve consistent business growth which will in turn strengthen our competitiveness in the construction industry in Hong Kong.

Our Operating Subsidiary has a fleet of machinery and vehicles

As of September 30, 2025, our Operating Subsidiary possess 24 industrial machinery, which includes excavators and wheel loaders, and 12 motor vehicles, which consist mainly of heavy and medium duty tipper trucks. Our fleet of machinery and tipper trucks allow our Operating Subsidiary to undertake multiple soil and rock transportation projects at the same time. Our Operating Subsidiary has the capacity to undertake multiple projects simultaneously due in part to our experienced workers and our effective project management by our highly dedicated management team. Having our own fleet of trucks and machines allows our operating subsidiary to expediently deploy them to various locations and minimize the reliance on subcontractors or specialist machinery hires like some of our competitors. Our Operating Subsidiary also has an experienced in-house servicing team for its tipper trucks and other machinery to ensure that they are well maintained and operated efficiently. For any idle machinery equipment, we may also lease it to third parties through our machinery rental services. Our Operating Subsidiary’s projects department works closely with the contractor on-site, ensuring that the earthworks are carried out as per the project schedule and specifications.

Implementation of stringent quality assurance system

In addition to our ability to attract and retain high quality subcontractors, we have also implemented a stringent quality control system to regulate our work’s quality, safety and environmental management standard which ensures that we consistently deliver high quality services to our customers. Our dedicated project management team actively monitors the progress of each project and maintains an open dialogue with our subcontractors to ensure that our various work standards are being complied with and implements corrective measures immediately if any instance of

non-compliance is identified. During the six months ended September 30, 2025, for the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 and as at the date of this prospectus, we have not encountered any material disputes and legal proceedings initiated by our customers, and no punitive actions have been taken by any local authorities against our Operating Subsidiary for the violation of any applicable regulations. We believe that our stringent quality control system helps separate us from other competitors and solidifies our position as a dedicated construction works subcontractor, which is crucial to our customer retention and business growth.

We emphasize timeliness for completion of projects

Our success is founded on our vigorous efforts to complete projects on time. Our directors emphasize strongly the importance of tight progress management of a project. Once the works program is formulated, we spare no effort to catch up with the progress. We are able to arrange extra labor and machinery to speed up works in case progress falls behind schedule. We also maintain control of our projects by not subcontracting project management or all of the works to any single subcontractor. During the six months ended September 30, 2025 and the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we did not experience any delay in our projects that resulted in our customers charging liquidated damage against us. Our directors believe that other than price, the ability to complete projects and complete them on time is one of the crucial attributes considered by our customers who consider engaging us. We have regular progress meetings with our customers to update them the progress of our works and keep them assured that we will complete the works within the allowed time frame. We will strengthen our project management team to stay competitive and continue to deliver timely progress.

Experienced and professional management team

Our management members bring with them extensive experience in the construction industry. In particular, Mr. Chan Sum Yuen, our chief executive officer, director and chairman of the board, has been in the construction industry in Hong Kong for over 10 years and has amassed extensive experience acting as project manager for construction projects of all scales, including, but not limited to, several major infrastructure projects in Hong Kong. Mr. Chan is in charge of our overall daily site operation and has wide business network with our customers. In addition, we also count on the contribution and professionalism of our project management team, of whom a number of team members have either completed tertiary education or above or have obtained recognised professional qualifications such as chartered engineer and certified public accountant. Their technical know-how and industry knowledge acquired and accumulated over the years have also assisted us in carrying out efficient management of project work and in coping with uncertainties encountered during the projects’ operation. We believe that our experienced and professional management team is an invaluable asset and will continue to contribute to our business development and future prospects.

Our Strategies

Our primary business objective is to further solidify our market position and increase our market share in the construction industry in Hong Kong. We intend to achieve our business objective by expanding our scale of operation through the implementation of the following strategies:

Expand our workforce

We intend to expand our workforce by employing additional staff in each office department at our Operating Subsidiary. If we do not possess sufficient manpower, our project capacity may be limited and we may not be able to submit tender for additional projects until our projects on hands are completed when our project management and execution resources are released. This, however, may severely affect our competitiveness and is not a sustainable solution in the long run. Additionally, our failure to respond to our customer’s tender invitation may be perceived negatively by our customers. As such, in order for us to expand our market share, we need to employ additional staff to increase our project capacity such that we could adopt a more proactive approach in our tender submission strategy. In particular, we believe the employment of additional project management staff to be imperative as the increase in projects generally means an increase in number of project worksites. If we intend to take up more projects without recruiting additional project management staff, we may fail to maintain our service quality because such staff may not be able to closely monitor the work quality of each project and address issues of non-compliance immediately due to their increased workload. As such the employment of additional project management staff is one of our priorities and is critical to the continued success of our business.

Acquisition of additional machineries

Along with the hiring of additional manpower, we believe it is equally important for us to acquire additional machinery such as hydraulic drills and excavators as our project capacity also depends largely on the availability of machinery. We believe that possessing our own machinery is more cost effective than leasing or relying on the provision of machinery by third parties, such as our customers and subcontractors, because (i) we can ensure that the machinery is optimally serviced and exercise greater control over the deployment of our machinery, (ii) we will not be affected by fluctuation in the leasing costs of machineries, (iii) our reliance on available machinery and equipment from third parties is reduced, and (iv) the accuracy of our project cost estimation will be enhanced, thus enabling us to prepare tenders more accurately and competitively. As such, it is imperative for us to continue to acquire additional machinery to ensure that we maintain an optimal level of machinery to cope with the increase in number of projects as our business expands.

Enhancing our safety training program

The proceeds from our recent funding will be strategically allocated to enhance safety training for construction works, ensuring that our workforce is well-equipped to uphold the highest safety standards on-site. By investing in comprehensive training programs that incorporate advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI), we aim to foster a culture of safety that prioritizes the well-being of our employees and minimizes the risk of accidents. AI will be utilized to analyze safety data, identify potential hazards, and tailor training modules to meet the specific needs of our workforce. Additionally, we will implement hands-on workshops and engage industry experts to provide insights and best practices, ensuring that our training programs remain current and effective. Ultimately, this investment in safety training, bolstered by AI, not only demonstrates our commitment to protecting our workforce but also enhances operational efficiency and promotes a safer working environment across all our construction projects.

Compete for sizeable and profitable construction projects

The number and size of foundation work projects that can be executed by us concurrently at any given time is limited by our resources, including the capacity of our machinery and the availability and experience of our manpower. In other words, the bottleneck of our profitability would be caused by the insufficiency or the inability to locate machinery and skilled labor during the operation period of a project. As such, we believe that we should focus on deploying our resources toward competing for sizeable and profitable foundation work projects in Hong Kong. We will also sharpen our efforts in securing new projects; to this end, we will proactively maintain relationships with property developers, main contractors and subcontractors in Hong Kong and submit more quotations in an effort to expand our project pipeline. We consider that these measures have to be adopted concurrently, so as to minimize the idling time of machinery or avoid costs incurred for excessive manpower.

Strengthening our marketing efforts

We are generally dependent on our existing major customers for project tender invitation and we do not engage in any active marketing of our business. In order to achieve our business objective of increasing our market share in the construction industry in Hong Kong, we believe the adoption of a proactive marketing strategy would be critical. Our proposed marketing strategies include the following: (i) setting up our own website and regularly update the general public on our latest development; (ii) placing advertisements in online magazines, industry publications and on websites; and (iii) establishing our own business development team who shall actively identify and reach out to prospective customers on possible project opportunities. We believe that not only would such marketing strategies help improve our market presence, but it would also help diversify our customer base and reduce our customer concentration.

OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Types of works undertaken

We through our Operating Subsidiary is principally engaged in the provision of three major construction related solutions, which include (i) civil engineering works, (ii) soil and rock transportation services and (iii) machinery rental services. Set forth below is a brief overview of the construction related solutions we offer:

(i)     Civil Engineering Work — Site Formation

We act primarily as subcontractor in civil engineering works in accordance with the instructions, drawings and specifications as provided by our customers. Civil engineering in Hong Kong commonly refers to the construction of various infrastructures, construction of foundations, landslip prevention and slope works, site formation, roads and drainage works, waterworks and port works. During the six months ended September 30, 2025 and the years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, our Operating Subsidiary primarily provided site formation services to our customers.

Site formation works are performed to prepare a piece of land in order to (i) accommodate buildings or other facilities which will be constructed within the area of the land; (ii) form the land to the required orientation, shape or levels; and (iii) provide the required support infrastructures, including access roadways, drainage and related services. Site formation works generally involve the clearance of construction site, demolition of existing structures, reduction and stabilization of existing slopes, and associated works such as construction of roads and drainage network. Site formation works also include the establishment of fill tank for the storage of public fill materials arising from construction activities.

(ii)    Soil and Rock Transportation Services

Construction activities, which include, among others, site clearance, excavation, construction, refurbishment, renovation, demolition and road works generate a large amount of C&D materials, a large portion of which ultimately becomes construction waste. Construction contractors in Hong Kong are obligated to sort and dispose of construction waste at appropriate government waste disposal facilities, which charge a disposal fee with respect to the weight and type of construction waste. The producers of construction waste are required to open a billing account with the Environmental Protection Department of the government of Hong Kong (“EDP”) prior to using a government waste disposal facility and to pay the relevant construction waste disposal charge.

Our Operating Subsidiary’s soil and rock transportation services are mainly provided to construction contractors to take care of excavated materials, primarily soil and rock, generated during the excavation stage of a foundation construction project. Our Operating Subsidiary’s customers primarily consist of both main contractors and subcontractors operating in public sector construction projects. Our Operating Subsidiary’s services involve the handling, loading and transport of excavated materials, substantially comprised of soil and rock, for disposal at relevant government waste disposal facilities such as landfills, sorting facilities or public fill reception facilities, as the case may be.

Among the C&D materials generated from construction activities, some inert materials such as soil, rock and concrete are suitable for reuse and/or recycling into products with marketable value. These materials are suitable for reuse in construction projects such as reclamation, or site formation works with or without further processing. Other inert C&D materials such as asphalt, tiles, bricks and glass cannot be feasibly processed and recycled into marketable products. The excavated materials our Operating Subsidiary handles are a mix of such materials. Rather than disposing of all the C&D materials at government waste disposal facilities, our Operating Subsidiary’s makes efforts to reduce waste by reintroducing suitable materials back into the market as reusable or recyclable materials. The recycling of such materials also saves the charges from the government’s sorting facilities should they be disposed of at there.

Our Operating Subsidiary identifies reclamation and site formation construction contractors and other vendors interested in purchasing the excavated materials. Excavated soil can be used for land filling works while rock materials can be treated and processed into viable construction materials such as recycled aggregates for mixing concrete. These excavated materials that can be repurposed or sold will not be subject to disposal charges at government waste disposal facilities, reduces the amount of environmental waste, and at the same time, the operational costs of our operating subsidiary.

(iii)   Machinery Rental Services

Our Operating Subsidiary also provides machinery rental services to our customers, which primarily consists of construction contractors. Construction contractors frequently require reliable, well-maintained heavy machinery equipment to carry out works such as earthmoving, excavation, road construction, demolition and site formation. Our Operating Subsidiary’s machinery rental services mainly involve leasing idle machinery equipment to third parties which are not actively deployed for our own projects on a rental basis only, according to the specific needs and project schedules of our customers. By leasing out idle machinery equipment, it also helps to enhance utilization efficiency and generate additional revenue. The machinery equipment that our Operating Subsidiary leases out comprises wheel loaders, backhoe and excavators.

BUSINESS OPERATION FLOW

Site Formation Works and Soil and Rock Transportation Services

The following diagram illustrates the general steps of the above business operations:

(i)     Project identification and invitation by tender

Our projects are typically secured through invitation-based tendering. Our customers, who are mostly main contractors of different types of building and infrastructure construction projects in Hong Kong, usually invite us to submit a tender proposal as a subcontractor. This invitation can be extended through invitation letters, phone calls, or verbal invitations. Additionally, we are provided with preliminary information regarding the project’s specifications, site conditions, and relevant drawings.

(ii)    Tender analysis and preparation of tenders

Upon receiving the tender or quotation details, our directors would conduct an initial assessment and consider various factors to determine whether to bid for the tender. These factors include assessing the project’s profitability, feasibility based on technical specifications, our expertise and capacity, available manpower resources, labor and construction material costs, project schedule, quality expectations, preliminary safety and environmental risk analysis, and other potential risk factors associated with the project. If necessary, we may also conduct on-site inspections to gain a better understanding of the site conditions. Once our directors deem a potential project acceptable based on our assessment, our contract manager takes responsibility for preparing a tender proposal which is reviewed by our directors before it is submitted to the customer for consideration.

(iii)   Analysis, approval and decision-making by customer

Upon receiving our tender, our customer may seek clarification on the details of our submission through interviews or inquiries. Once our customer decides to engage our services, they will typically inform us of their acceptance of our tender through written confirmation. This is followed by the execution of a formal agreement between us and the customer, which sets out the terms of our engagement.

(iv)   Formation of project management team and preparation

Project management team composition and responsibilities

Our project management team is generally tasked with a wide range of responsibilities, including, but not limited to the following: (i) developing work schedules, (ii) engaging, supervising, and collaborating with subcontractors, (iii) arranging for the purchase of construction materials and the transportation of machinery (iv) overseeing work progress, monitoring the project budget, ensuring compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, (v) preparing progress reports, (vi) maintaining an open dialogue with our customers to ensure that the quality of work performed meets their requirements: Our project management team generally consist of the following key personnel:

Site agent — Our site agent is responsible for inspecting fieldwork, including monitoring the work progress and communicating with our foreman about each project’s daily operations.

Site foreman — Our foreman is responsible for coordinating, providing guidance to, and supervising our workers and subcontractors on site. Our foreman is also required to act as a safety supervisor.

Quantity surveyor — Our quantity surveyor is responsible for conducting cost estimation, determining and procuring the required quantity of materials and tools for the project, monitoring their usage, managing project implementation costs, and handling payment applications to our customers.

Safety supervisor — Our safety officer is responsible for setting up safety plans for our subcontractors, inspecting machinery and equipment to ensure they are safe to be used, conducting regular safe walks to maintain a safe working environment and site tidiness, handling safety incidents, and keeping safety records.

Machinery and vehicle arrangements

Most of our site formation works and soil and rock transportation services involve the usage of machinery and vehicles. Our site agent is responsible for managing the machinery and vehicles for all projects and determining the types of machinery to be used, the time for the usage of machinery and the transportation logistics of machinery.

Purchasing of materials

We are generally responsible for purchasing and providing the required materials to our subcontractors. Our quantity surveyor will place orders with our list of pre-approved suppliers and purchase the required materials. In some projects, certain construction materials might be purchased by our customer on our behalf for their projects.

(v)    Project execution

The construction works are carried out by our site workers, who work under the supervision of our onsite project teams and representatives of our customers. Throughout the execution phase, our site agents regularly meet with our customers to review the progress of the work and address any issues that may arise during the project execution phase.

The initial stages of our excavation and soil and rock transportation projects typically involve sorting the initial layer of materials from excavation. This generally includes a mixture of inert and non-inert C&D materials, including remnant waste from the site clearance process, that are generally not suitable for reuse. The initial layer comprises approximately 20% of the overall volume of materials handled and is considered entirely construction waste. The project team loads the construction waste onto tipper trucks for disposal at the nearest landfill or sorting facility depending on the composition of inert to non-inert construction waste. When the tipper truck carrying the construction waste enters the reception facility, a corresponding transaction record, known as CHIT, is presented and the truck is weighed at the in-weighbridge and inspected as to whether the wastes are permitted to be discharged at the facility. If the contents of the waste fail to comply with the acceptance criteria, a rejection advice will be issued and the truck cannot discharge its waste at the reception facility. When accepted, the truck will be directed to the designated area for unloading the construction waste material. After discharging the waste, the truck will then be weighed again to estimate the weight of waste material discharged. Based on the recorded weight recorded on the CHIT, a waste disposal charge at a rate of HK$175 (approximately US$22.34) up to HK$200 (approximately US$25.53) per ton is payable for disposal of construction waste at sorting facilities and landfills, respectively.

As excavation continues deep down, the materials excavated will consist almost entirely of soil and rock. During this stage, sorting is required to separate the soil and rock materials, which is typically carried out by the construction contractor, depending on the engagement terms. After sorting, our Operating Subsidiary will confirm with other construction contractors the amount of soil that can be reused as filling material, and these contractors will arrange for on-site collection of the materials at no cost. To ensure the soil is recycled and reused, the project team maintains communication with these contractors and will obtain a set of supporting documents to track the transit of the materials until it is redeployed. Soil that meets certain standards is typically reused as backfill in foundation and reclamation projects at other construction sites.

(vi)   Project management and supervision

We adopt stringent quality standards pursuant to which our project team is required to complete the construction work on time, avoid poor workmanship, and minimize defects. Our site agents and foreman peruse our customer’s project specifications carefully and maintains constant dialogue with our customers so as to understand the acceptance standard before the completed work is to be inspected by our customer. Our site agents are also required to prepare monthly progress records on the works performed by our workers and subcontractors. Such monthly progress records are passed to our quantity surveyors for review.

(vii)  Variation orders

During the project execution, it is possible for our customers to request additional work or changes to certain aspects of the project. These orders are commonly known as variation orders. Variation orders can involve various types of modifications, including additions, omissions, substitutions, alterations, changes in quality, form, character, kind, position, or dimension. To address variation orders, we engage in discussions with our customers to reach mutual agreement on the cost implications. This involves determining the amount to be added or deducted from the contract sum, primarily based on the rates established in the original contract. Typically, we receive notification of a variation order through a formal letter from our customer, providing detailed instructions regarding the specific work resulting from the variation order. If necessary, we seek quotations from our subcontractors and prepare a rate proposal for the variation order, which is then submitted to our customer for approval.

(viii) Customer inspection and application for interim payment

During the course of the project execution phase, our customer or their representatives would also inspect our work done from time to time in order to monitor our work quality and confirm completion of the relevant works done before our interim payment applications are certified. Upon completion of such inspection, our customer may issue a report identifying the defects (if any) that need to be rectified.

We are generally entitled to interim payments from our customers on a monthly basis based on the work completed in the previous month. To receive such payment, we are required to prepare payment applications following the instructions of our customers which normally include details of work completed and variation orders (if any). Once our customer has approved our payment application, the interim payment will be paid to us within 30 days or on an agreed credit term. Our customers usually retain up to 10% of each interim payment and up to a maximum limit of 5% of the contract sum as retention money. Generally, the retention money will be withheld by our customers for 1 year.

(ix)   Project completion

A project is generally considered to be completed once we have completed our work as specified in the contract. Our customers conduct thorough inspections and examinations of the work we have completed to ensure compliance with their quality standards, requirements, and specifications. Upon completion and passing of the inspection, we will generally receive a completion certificate from our customer. We are then required to submit a detailed project settlement report to our customer within a specified period of time for the purpose of settling the final account, pursuant to which we are required to set out, among others, a detailed breakdown of the project costs including labor, materials, subcontractor expenses and other related expenses.

(x)    Defects liability period

Subject to the requirements of our customers, a defects liability period of up to 12 months from the date of completion of the project may be provided by us. During the defects liability period, we are responsible for remedial work that may arise from the defective work or materials used.

Machinery Rental Services

The following diagram illustrates the general steps of the above business operations:

(i)     Customer inquiry on machinery equipment

Our customers, which are primarily construction contractors, may approach us with inquiries when they need to rent machinery equipment for their worksites, or we may proactively offer available idle machinery equipment to existing customers. Our rental team shall identify the type of machinery required and confirm with the customers’ rental duration and project location. The project management team shall then review the upcoming project schedules to determine the machinery equipment’s availability, before proceeding with confirming the rental engagement.

(ii)    Issuance of quotation and confirmation of rental order

Based on the requirements of the customers, the rental team prepare and provide a rental quotation that typically sets out the applicable rental fees, which are generally charged on a daily basis. The quotation is then issued to the customer for review and confirmation prior to finalizing the rental order.

(iii)   Delivery of equipment

Upon confirming the rental order, the rental team shall liaise with the customer and schedule for the customer to collect the machinery equipment.

(iv)   Return of equipment and inspection

At the end of the agreed rental period, the customer shall notify our rental team and shall be responsible for returning the machinery equipment to us. Our project management team shall then arrange for inspection for each rental equipment and arrange for appropriate service and maintenance as required.

The following are some of the generalized terms included in most of our contracts with our customers, including our major customers:

PRICING STRATEGY

Our pricing is determined on a cost-plus basis with emphasis on factors that include: (i) the difficulties and methodology of the project with references made to other similar projects, (ii) the estimated number and types of workers required, (iii) the estimated number and types of machinery required, (iv) the completion time requested by customer, (v) the payment terms and financial strength of the customers, (vi) the prospect of obtaining future contracts from the customer, (vii) the likelihood of any significant fluctuation of the actual cost from our estimated cost having regard to the types and amount of labor, machinery, materials and other resources involved in our cost estimation, and (viii) the prevailing market conditions.

We consider that it is of utmost importance to estimate project cost accurately, as most of our construction projects in the private sector are a lump-sum contract or fixed unit price, which is based on estimated costs plus a mark-up margin, such that unexpected adverse fluctuation in price, budget, or time overrun may result in diminished project return or even a loss. Despite the contracts we enter into with our customers normally being lump-sum contracts, the total contract sum is normally based on the sum of individual rates and quantities listed in a set of schedules typically known as the bills of quantities. When there are changes in the quantities or scope of work, the bills of quantities are generally referred to for agreeing the price of the variations.

SALES AND MARKETING

Our business opportunities arose mainly from invitation for quotation by our existing customers. We currently do not have a dedicated sales and marketing team. We strive to maintain an open dialogue with our customers as it not only helps ensure that we understand their latest business needs, but also allows us to collect vital market information, thereby allowing us to keep track of the latest market demand on pricing, product range and quality. We would also receive tender invitations through referral from our existing suppliers or customers, which we believe is attributable to our well-established presence in the construction industry in Hong Kong and our good customer and supplier relationships.

SUPPLIERS

Our Operating Subsidiary’s suppliers primarily supply biodiesel oil to it for operation of its vehicles and for onward sales to its customers. Due to the nature of our business, which involves transporting large volumes of excavation materials and operating a large fleet of vehicles, biodiesel oil is a major cost component of our core business. Our Operating Subsidiary’s generally orders biodiesel oil on a project-by-project basis, and it does not enter into any long-term contracts with our suppliers. The terms of our supply contracts include the type of materials, price, quantity, and payment terms. We select suppliers mainly based on: (i) quality of materials, (ii) timeliness of delivery, (iii) previous experience and length of partnership with the supplier, (iv) competitiveness of the price offered, and (v) reputation of the supplier. Unless otherwise stated in our agreement with the customer, we usually provide construction materials for our projects. As we are provided with the standard requirements of the materials and we are liable for the quality of our projects, except in the case that we are provided with materials by our customer, as subcontractor, we are able to choose our own suppliers for our projects.

MACHINERY AND VEHICLES

We rely on the use of machinery and vehicles to enable us to carry out our business operations. When certain machinery and vehicles becomes idle and are not required for our own projects, we may lease such machinery equipment to third parties through our machinery rental services to enhance utilization efficiency. We generally have sufficient machinery and vehicles of our own and we do not need to borrow from any external supplier or engage any subcontractors. Our site agent is responsible for managing the machinery for all projects and determining the types of machinery to be used, the time for the usage of machinery and the transportation logistics of machinery. The machinery and equipment we utilize in our projects include:

We generally do not encounter the need for the storage of idle machinery and equipment. When we have idle machinery equipment, we may lease it to third parties. With the possession of our own machinery and equipment, we also do not have to rely completely on our suppliers for machinery and equipment rental services. Nevertheless, we believe that investment in machinery and equipment is crucial for us to have greater control and allow us to cater to projects of larger scale and increase our tender success rate in the future.

SEASONALITY

We believe that the construction industry in Hong Kong does not exhibit any significant seasonality.

QUALITY CONTROL

We adopt stringent quality standards pursuant to which our project team is required to complete the construction work on time, avoid poor workmanship, and minimize defects. To maintain consistent quality of services for our customers, we have established a quality management system that is certified to be in compliance with the requirements of ISO 9001:2015. Our site agents and foreman peruse our customer’s project specifications carefully and maintains constant dialogue with our customers so as to understand the acceptance standard before the completed work is to be inspected by our customer. Our site agents are also required to prepare monthly progress records on the works performed by our workers. Such monthly progress records are passed to our quantity surveyors for review.

The Competition Ordinance prohibits and deters undertakings in all sectors from adopting anticompetitive conduct which has the object or effect of preventing, restricting or distorting competition in Hong Kong. The Competition Ordinance lays down three forms of behavior and imposes three rules which are intended to prevent and discourage anti-competitive conduct: (i) the first conduct rule under the Competition Ordinance prohibits agreements between undertakings that have the object or effect of preventing, restricting or distorting competition in Hong Kong; (ii) the second conduct rule under the Competition Ordinance prohibits undertakings with a substantial degree of market power in a market from abusing that power by engaging in conduct that has the object or effect of preventing, restricting or distorting competition in Hong Kong; and (iii) the merger rule under the Competition Ordinance prohibits mergers that have or are likely to have the effect of substantially lessening competition in Hong Kong. Currently, the merger rule only applies to the telecommunications sector. Each of the aforesaid rules is however subject to a number of exclusions and exemptions.

Pursuant to section 82 of the Competition Ordinance, if the Competition Commission has reasonable cause to believe that (a) a contravention of the first conduct rule has occurred; and (b) the contravention does not involve serious anti-competitive conduct, it must, before bringing proceedings in the Competition Tribunal against the undertaking whose conduct is alleged to constitute the contravention, issue a notice to the undertaking.

However, under section 67 of the Competition Ordinance, where a contravention of the first conduct rule has occurred and the contravention involves serious anti-competitive conduct or a contravention of the second conduct rule has occurred, the Competition Commission may, instead of bringing proceedings in the Competition Tribunal in the first instance, issue a notice (an “infringement notice”) to the person against whom it proposes to bring proceedings, offering not to bring those proceedings on condition that the person makes a commitment to comply with requirements of the infringement notice. “Serious anti-competitive conduct” means any conduct that consists of any of the following or any combination of the following — (a) fixing, maintaining, increasing or controlling the price for the supply of goods or services; (b) allocating sales, territories, customers or markets for the production or supply of goods or services; (c) fixing, maintaining, controlling, preventing, limiting or eliminating the production or supply of goods or services; (d) bid-rigging.

In the event of breaches of the Competition Ordinance, the Competition Tribunal may make orders including: imposing a pecuniary penalty if satisfied that an entity has contravened a competition rule; disqualifying a person from acting as a director of a company or taking part in the management of a company; prohibiting an entity from making or giving effect to an agreement; modifying or terminating an agreement; and requiring the payment of damages to a person who has suffered loss or damage.

As of the date of this prospectus, our Operating Subsidiary has complied with the provisions under the Competition Ordinance.

Regulations in Relation to Contractor Licensing Regime and Operation

Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme

Subcontractors which are involved in, among others, civil engineering works in Hong Kong may apply for registration under the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme managed by the Construction Industry Council, a body corporate established under the Construction Industry Council Ordinance (Chapter 587 of the Laws of Hong Kong) in February 2007.

The Subcontractor Registration Scheme (substituted by the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme on 1 April 2019) was formerly known as the Voluntary Subcontractor Registration Scheme (the “VSRS”), which was introduced by the Provisional Construction Industry Co-ordination Board (the “PCICB”). The PCICB was formed in September 2001 to spearhead industry reform and to pave way for the early formation of the statutory industry coordinating body.

A technical circular issued by the Works Branch of the Development Bureau (then the Environment, Transport and Works Bureau) (“WBDB”) on 14 June 2004 (now subsumed into the Project Administration Handbook for Civil Engineering Works by the Civil Engineering and Development Department) requires that all public works contractors with tenders to be invited on or after 15 August 2004 to employ all subcontractors (whether nominated, specialist or domestic) registered from the respective trades available under the VSRS.

After the Construction Industry Council took over the work of the PCICB in February 2007 and the VSRS in January 2010, the Construction Industry Council launched stage two of the VSRS in January 2013. VSRS was also then renamed Subcontractor Registration Scheme. All subcontractors registered under the VSRS have automatically become registered subcontractors under the Subcontractor Registration Scheme.

With effect from 1 April 2019, the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme replaced the Subcontractor Registration Scheme. The Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme comprises of two registers: the Register of Specialist Trade Contractors (“RSTC”) and the Register of Subcontractors (“RS”).

Categories of registration

Subcontractors may apply for registration on the Subcontractor Registration Scheme in one or more of 52 trades covering common structural, civil, finishing, electrical and mechanical works and supporting services. The 52 trades further branch out into around 94 specialties, including general demolition, and others (concrete coring and saw cutting) etc. Since 1 April 2019, subcontractors may apply for registration on the RSTC in one or more of the seven designated trades including demolition, reinforcement bar fixing, erection of concrete precast component, concreting formwork, concreting, scaffolding and curtain wall and on the RS in other common civil, building, electrical and mechanical trades.

Where a contractor is to subcontract/sub-let part of the public works involving trades available under the Primary Register (a list of companies registered in accordance with the Rules and Procedures for the Primary Register of the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme) of the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme, it shall engage all subcontractors (whether nominated, specialist or domestic) who are registered under the relevant trades in the Primary Register of the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme. Should the subcontractors further subcontract (irrespective of any tier) any part of the public works subcontracted to them involving trades available under the Primary Register of the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme, the contractor shall ensure that all subcontractors (irrespective of any tier) are registered under the relevant trades in the Primary Register of the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme.

Requirements for registration under the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme

Applications for registration under the RS are subject to the following entry requirements:

(a)     completion of at least one job within the last five years as a main contractor/subcontractor in the trades and specialities for which registration is applied or to have acquired comparable experience by itself/its proprietors, partners or directors within the last five years;

(b)    listings on one or more government registration schemes operated by policy bureaus or departments of the Hong Kong Government relevant to the trades and specialties for which registration is sought; and

(c)     the proprietor, partner or director having been employed by a registered subcontractor for at least five years with experience in the trade/specialty applying for and having completed all the modules of the Project Management Training Series for Subcontractors (or equivalent) conducted by the Construction Industry Council; or the company’s proprietor, partner or director having registered as Registered Skilled Worker under the Construction Workers Registration Ordinance for the relevant trade/specialty with at least five years’ experience in the trade/specialty applying for and having completed the Senior Construction Workers Trade Management Course (or equivalent) conducted by the Construction Industry Council.

Applications for registration under the RSTC are subject to a number of requirements based on the relevant trade category and tender limits as detailed in Schedule 2 of the Rules and Procedures for the Register of Specialist Trade Contractors issued by the Construction Industry Council in January 2021.

Validity period of registration and renewal of registration

A registered subcontractor shall apply for renewal within three months before the expiry date of its registration whereas a registered specialist trade contractor shall apply for renewal not earlier than six months but not later than three months before the expiry date of its registration by submitting an application to the Construction Industry Council in a specified format providing information and supporting documents as required to show compliance with the entry requirements. An application for renewal shall be subject to approval by the committee on Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme which oversees the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme (the “Committee”). If some of the entry requirements covered in an application can no longer be satisfied, the Committee of the Construction Industry Council may give approval for renewal based on those trades and specialties where the requirements are met. An approved renewal as a registered subcontractor shall be valid for three or five years from the expiry of the current registration whereas the approved renewal for a registered specialist trade contractor shall be valid for not less than 36 months after the decision date for that application for renewal.

Codes of Conduct

A registered subcontractor and a registered specialist trade contractor shall observe the Codes of Conduct for Registered Subcontractor (Schedule 8 of the Rules and Procedures for the Primary Register of the Subcontractor Registration Scheme) (the “Codes of Conduct”). Failure to comply with the Codes of Conduct may result in regulatory actions taken by the Committee.

The circumstances pertaining to a registered subcontractor that may call for regulatory actions include, but are not limited to:

(a)     supply of false information when making an application for registration, renewal of registration or inclusion of additional trades;

(b)    failure to give timely notification of changes to the registration particulars;

(c)     serious violations of the registration rules and procedures;

(d)    convictions of senior management staff (including but not limited to proprietors, partners or directors) for bribery or corruption under the Prevention of Bribery Ordinance (Chapter 201 of the Laws of Hong Kong);

(e)     convictions for failure to pay wages on time to workers in accordance with the relevant provisions contained in the Employment Ordinance;

(f)     wilful misconducts that may bring the Subcontractor Registration Scheme (and since 1 April 2019, the Registered Specialist Trade Contractors Scheme) into serious disrepute;

(g)    civil awards/judgments in connection with the violation of or convictions under the relevant sections of the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance;

(h)    convictions under the Factories and Industrial Undertakings Ordinance or Occupational Safety and Health Ordinance in relation to serious construction site safety incidents resulting in one or more of the following consequence: (i) loss of life; or (ii) serious bodily injury resulting in loss or amputation of a limb or had caused or was likely to cause permanent total disability

(i)     conviction of five or more offences under the Factories and Industrial Undertakings Ordinance and/or Occupational Safety and Health Ordinance each arising out of separate incidents in any six months period (according to the date of committing the offence but not the date of conviction), committed by the Registered Subcontractor at each of a construction site under a contract;

(j)     convictions for employment of illegal worker under the Immigration Ordinance; or

(k)    late payment of workers’ wages and/or late payment of contribution under the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance over ten days with solid proof of such late payment of wages and/or contribution.

Regulatory actions

The Committee may instigate regulatory actions against a registered subcontractor by directing that: (a) written strong direction and/or warning be given to a registered subcontractor; (b) a registered subcontractor to submit an improvement plan with the contents as specified and within a specified period; (c) a registered subcontractor be suspended from registration for a specified duration; or (d) the registration of a registered subcontractor be revoked. The Committee may instigate regulatory actions against a registered specialist trade contractor by directing that: (a) written warning be given to the registered specialist trade contractor; (b) the registered specialist trade contractor be suspended from registration for a specified period; (c) the grouping of a registered specialist trade contractor be changed; or (d) the registration of the registered specialist trade contractor be revoked.

Others

Proposed Security of Payment Legislation (“SOPL”)

The Government has conducted a public consultation on the SOPL for the construction industry to promote fair payment and help main contractors, subcontractors, consultants, sub-consultants and suppliers to receive payment on time for work done and services provided, so as to improve payment practices and provide rapid dispute resolution.

The SOPL will, among others:

•        prohibit “pay when paid” and similar terms in contracts, which refer to provisions in contracts that make payment contingent or conditional on the operation of other contracts or agreements, meaning that payment is conditional on the payer receiving payment from a third party;

•        prohibit payment periods of more than 60 calendar days for interim payments and 120 calendar days for final payments;

•        enable parties who are entitled to progress payments under the terms of a contract covered by the SOPL to claim such payments as statutory payment claims, upon receipt of which the payer has 30 calendar days to serve a payment response, and parties who are entitled to payments under statutory payment claims will be entitled to pursue adjudication if the statutory payment claims are disputed or ignored; and

•        grant parties the right to suspend or reduce the rate of progress of works after either non-payment of an adjudicator’s decision or non-payment of amounts admitted as due.

All contracts and sub-contracts, whether in written or oral form, for (i) government works, under which the Government and specified public entities procure construction and maintenance activities or related services, materials or plant; and (ii) private sector works, under which private entities procure construction activities for new buildings (as defined in the Buildings Ordinance) with a main contract value of over HK$5 million or procure related services, material or plant or supply-only contracts with a contract value of over HK$500,000, will be governed by the SOPL. Where the main contract is covered by the SOPL, all subcontracts (irrespective of tier) will be covered by the SOPL regardless of value. The legislation will not apply to private sector construction works relating to new buildings with a main contract value of less than HK$5 million or related services, material or plant supply-only contracts with a contract value of less than HK$500,000.

The proposed legislation will not apply retrospectively but will apply only to contracts entered on or after a date to be set by or pursuant to the legislation.

The SOPL is designed to assist contractors throughout the contractual chain to ensure cash-flow and access to a swift dispute resolution process. However, there are still uncertainties on the final legislative framework to be submitted to the Legislative Council for consideration and approval.

The Government released a Technical Circular on the Implementation of the Spirit of Security of Payment Legislation in Public Works Contracts (the “Technical Circular”) in October 2021. The Technical Circular sets out the policy on the implementation of the spirit of the SOPL in public works contracts with a view to facilitating timely processing of contract payments and providing an interim mechanism for speedy resolution of payment disputes before the enactment of the SOPL. The scope of contracts covered by the Technical Circular includes public works contracts, term contracts and related subcontracts tendered (i) on or after December 31, 2021, for tenders to be invited from Group B or Group C contractors on the List of Approved Contractors for Public Works; and (ii) on or after April 1, 2022, for tenders to be invited from other contractors on the List of Approved Contractors for Public Works or the List of Approved Suppliers of Materials and Specialist Contractors for Public Works.

The implementation date of the proposed SOPL has not been announced, and therefore does not affect our Operating Subsidiary.

Employment Agreements and Indemnification Agreements

We intend to enter into employment agreements with each of our executive officers that will become effective upon the completion of this offering. Under these agreements, each of our executive officers will be employed for a specified time period — typically for one year. We may terminate employment for cause, at any time, without advance notice or remuneration, for certain acts of the executive officer, such as conviction or plea of guilty to a felony or any crime involving moral turpitude, negligent or dishonest acts to our detriment, or misconduct or a failure to perform agreed duties. We may also terminate an executive officer’s employment without cause upon 30 days’ advance written notice. In such case of termination by us, we will provide severance payments to the executive officer as expressly required by applicable law of the jurisdiction where the executive officer is based. The executive officer may resign at any time with 30 days’ advance written notice.

Each executive officer has agreed to hold, at all times during 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 the confidential or proprietary information disclosed to the executive officer by or obtained by the executive officer from us either directly or indirectly in writing, orally, or otherwise, if specifically indicated to be confidential or reasonably expected to be confidential.

We intend to enter into agreements with all directors whose service will begin upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Pursuant to the agreements, each director has agreed to attend and participate in such number of meetings of the Board of Directors and of the committees of which he or she may become a member as regularly or specially called and will agree to serve as a director for a year and be up for re-election each year at our annual shareholder meeting. The directors’ services will be compensated by cash under the agreement in an amount determined by the board of directors.

We intend to enter into indemnification agreements with each of our executive directors and executive officers. Under these agreements, we agree to indemnify them against certain liabilities and expenses that they incur in connection with claims made by reason of their being a director or officer of our Company. 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.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

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

Board of Directors

The board of directors will consist of five directors, comprising two executive directors and three independent 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 is not required to hold any shares in our Company to qualify to serve as a director. Subject to making appropriate disclosures to the board of directors in accordance with our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles, a director may vote with respect to any contract, proposed contract, or arrangement in which he or she is interested; in voting in respect to any such matter, such director should take into account his or her directors duties. A director may exercise all the powers of the company to borrow money; mortgage its business, property, and uncalled capital; and issue debentures or other securities whenever money is borrowed or as security for any obligation of the Company or of any third party.

Board Diversity

We seek to achieve board diversity through the consideration of a number of factors when selecting the candidates to our board of directors, 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 that the selected candidates will bring to our board of directors.

Our directors have a balanced mix of knowledge and skills. We will have three independent directors with different industry backgrounds, representing a majority of the members of our board of directors. Our board of directors is well balanced and diversified in alignment with our business development and strategy.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Upon the SEC’s declaration of effectiveness of our registration statement, we intend to establish an audit committee, a compensation committee, and a nominating and corporate governance committee under the board of directors and shall 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. Terence Mak, Professor Ng and Mr. McKeage, and will be chaired by Mr. Terence Mak. We have determined that each of these three director nominees satisfies the rules of NYSE American and meets the independence standards under Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. We have determined that Mr. Terence Mak qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert.” The audit committee will oversee our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of our financial statements. The audit committee will be responsible for, among other things:

•        selecting the independent registered public accounting firm and pre-approving all auditing and non-auditing services permitted to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm;

•        reviewing with the independent registered public accounting firm any audit problems or difficulties and management’s responses;

•        reviewing and approving all proposed related party transactions, as defined in Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act;

•        discussing the annual audited financial statements with management and the independent registered public accounting firm;

•        reviewing the adequacy and effectiveness of our accounting and internal control policies and procedures and any special steps taken to monitor and control major financial risk exposures;

•        annually reviewing and reassessing the adequacy of our audit committee charter;

•        meeting separately and periodically with management and the independent registered public accounting firm;

•        monitoring compliance with our code of business conduct and ethics, including reviewing the adequacy and effectiveness of our procedures to ensure proper compliance; and

•        reporting regularly to the board of directors.

Compensation Committee

Our compensation committee will consist of Mr. Terence Mak, Professor Ng and Mr. McKeage, and will be chaired by Professor Ng. We have determined that each of these directors satisfies the “independence” requirements of the NYSE American. The compensation committee assists the board of directors 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 their compensation is deliberated upon. The compensation committee will be responsible for, among other things:

•        reviewing and approving, or recommending to the board of directors for its approval, the compensation for our Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers;

•        reviewing and recommending to the board of directors for determination with respect to the compensation of our non-employee directors;

•        reviewing periodically and approving any incentive compensation or equity plans, programs, or other similar arrangements; and

•        selecting a compensation consultant, legal counsel, or other adviser only after taking into consideration all factors relevant to that person’s independence from management.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

Our nominating and corporate governance committee will consist of Mr. Terence Mak, Professor Ng and Mr. McKeage, and will be chaired by Mr. McKeage. We have determined that each of these directors satisfies the “independence” requirements of the NYSE American. The nominating and corporate governance committee assists

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

•        recommending nominees to the board of directors for election or re-election to the board of directors or for appointment to fill any vacancy on the board of directors;

•        reviewing annually with the board of directors the current composition of the board of directors in regard to characteristics such as independence, knowledge, skills, experience, expertise, diversity, and availability of service to us;

•        selecting and recommending to the board of directors the names of directors to serve as members of the audit committee and the compensation committee, as well as of the nominating and corporate governance committee itself;

•        developing and reviewing the corporate governance principles adopted by the board of directors and advising the board of directors with respect to significant developments in the law, practice of corporate governance, and our compliance with such laws and practices; and

•        evaluating the performance and effectiveness of the board of directors as a whole.

Board Oversight of Cybersecurity Risks

The board of directors plays an active role in monitoring cybersecurity risks and is committed to the prevention, timely detection, and mitigation of the effects of any such incidents on our operations. In addition to regular reports from each of the board’s committees, the board receives regular reports from our management on material cybersecurity risks and the degree of our exposure to those risks, including in connection with our clients, service suppliers and other service providers. While the board of directors oversees our cybersecurity risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. Management also works with third party service providers, i.e., software companies who provide software and antivirus support to the Company to ensure appropriate controls are in place and to regularly monitor network activities. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing our cybersecurity risks and that our board leadership structure supports this approach.

Foreign Private Issuer Exemption

We are a “foreign private issuer,” as defined by the SEC. As a result, in accordance with the rules and regulations of NYSE American, we may choose to comply with home country governance requirements and certain exemptions thereunder rather than complying with NYSE American’s corporate governance standards. We may choose to take advantage of the following exemptions afforded to foreign private issuers:

•        Exemption from filing quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, from filing proxy solicitation materials on Schedule 14A or 14C in connection with annual or special meetings of shareholders, from providing current reports on Form 8-K disclosing significant events within four days of their occurrence, and from the disclosure requirements of Regulation FD.

•        Exemption from Section 16 rules regarding sales of Ordinary Shares by insiders, which will provide less data in this regard than shareholders of U.S. companies that are subject to the Exchange Act.

•        Exemption from the NYSE American rules applicable to domestic issuers requiring disclosure within four (4) business days of any determination to grant a waiver of the code of business conduct and ethics to directors and officers. Although we will require Board approval of any such waiver, we may choose not to disclose the waiver in the manner set forth in the NYSE American rules, as permitted by the foreign private issuer exemption.

•        Exemption from the requirement that our Board of Directors have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors with a written charter addressing the committee’s purpose and responsibilities.

•        Exemption from the requirements that director nominees are selected, or recommended for selection by our Board of Directors, either by (i) independent directors constituting a majority of our Board of Directors’ independent directors in a vote in which only independent directors participate, or (ii) a committee comprised solely of independent directors, and that a formal written charter or Board resolution, as applicable, addressing the nominations process is adopted.

The NYSE American Company Guide includes certain accommodations in the corporate governance requirements that allow foreign private issuers, such as us, to follow “home country” practices in lieu of the otherwise applicable standards of the NYSE American regarding such matters as: (i) the election and composition of the Board of Directors; (ii) the issuance of quarterly earnings statements; (iii) shareholder approval requirements; and (iv) quorum requirements for shareholder meetings. The application of such exceptions requires that we disclose each NYSE American standard that we do not follow and describe the Cayman Islands practices we do follow in lieu of the relevant NYSE American standard. If we choose to do so, we may utilize these exemptions for as long as we continue to qualify as a foreign private issuer.

Although we are permitted to follow certain corporate governance rules that conform to Cayman Islands requirements in lieu of many of the NYSE American corporate governance rules, we intend to comply with the NYSE American corporate governance rules applicable to foreign private issuers, including the requirement to hold annual meetings of shareholders.

Duties of Directors

As a matter of Cayman Islands law, a director of a Cayman Islands company is in the position of a fiduciary with respect to the company and therefore it is considered that he owes the following duties to the company — a duty to act bona fide in the best interests of the company, a duty not to make a profit based on his or her position as director (unless the company permits him to do so) and a duty not to put himself in a position where the interests of the company conflict with his or her personal interest or his or her duty to a third party. A director of a Cayman Islands company owes to the company a duty to act with skill and care. It was previously considered that a director need not exhibit in the performance of his or her duties a greater degree of skill than may reasonably be expected from a person of his or her 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.

In fulfilling their duty of care to us, our directors must ensure compliance with our memorandum and articles of association as may be amended from time to time. Our Company has a right to seek damages against any director who breaches a duty owed to us.

The functions and powers of our Board of Directors include, among others:

•        convening shareholders’ annual general meetings and reporting its work to shareholders at such meetings;

•        declaring dividends and distributions;

•        appointing officers and determining the term of office of officers; and

•        exercising the borrowing powers of our Company and mortgaging the property of our Company.

Terms of Directors and Officers

Our officers are elected by and serve at the discretion of the board of directors. Our directors are not subject to a term of office and hold office until their resignation, death or incapacity, or until their respective successors have been elected and qualified or until his or her office is otherwise vacated in accordance with our amended and restated articles of association.

A director will also be removed from office automatically if, among other things, the director (i) becomes bankrupt or makes any arrangement or composition with his creditors, (ii) dies or is found to be or becomes of unsound mind, (iii) resigns his office by notice in writing, (iv) without special leave of absence from our board of directors, is absent from meetings of our board of directors for a continuous period of six months, or (v) is removed from office pursuant to any other provisions of our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles.

Interested Transactions

Interested director transactions are governed by the terms of a company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles.

A director may, subject to any separate requirement for audit committee approval under applicable law, the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles or the NYSE American rules, or disqualification by the chairman of the relevant board meeting, vote in respect of certain contract or transaction in which he or she is interested, provided that the nature of the interest of any directors in such contract or transaction is disclosed by him or her at or prior to its consideration and any vote in that matter.

Limitation on Liability and Other Indemnification Matters

Cayman Islands law allows us to indemnify our directors, officers and auditors acting in relation to any of our affairs against actions, costs, charges, losses, damages and expenses incurred by reason of any act done or omitted in the execution of their duties as our directors, officers and auditors.

Under our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles to be adopted upon the closing of this offering, we may indemnify our directors and officers to, among other persons, our directors and officers from and against all actions, costs, charges, losses, damages and expenses which they or any of them may incur or sustain 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 trusts, except such (if any) as they shall incur or sustain through their own fraud or dishonesty.

Compensation of Directors and Executive Officers

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. During the six months ended September 30, 2025, our directors and executive officers received an aggregate compensation of HK$660,000 (approximately US$84,486) in cash (including salaries and mandatory provident fund). For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, we paid an aggregate of HK$1,500,800 (approximately US$193,494), HK$315,862 (approximately US$40,381) and HK$240,000 (approximately US$30,675), respectively, in cash (including salaries and mandatory provident fund) to our directors and executive officers. The Operating Subsidiary is required by law to contribute amounts equal to certain percentages of each employee’s salary for his or her mandatory provident fund. We have not made any agreements with our directors or executive officers to provide benefits upon termination of employment. We do not have a share incentive program to provide for grants of awards to our directors and executive officers. We have not set aside or accrued any amount to provide pension, retirement or other similar benefits to our executive officers and directors.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

We have not adopted any equity compensation plans.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End
