PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS
Alpha One Inc.
10,000,000 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
$0.001 PAR VALUE PER SHARE
This prospectus relates to shares of common stock of Alpha One Inc. which may be offered by the selling shareholders for their own account.
The shares of common stock being offered by the selling shareholders pursuant to this prospectus are “restricted securities” under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), before their sale under this prospectus. This prospectus has been prepared for the purpose of registering these shares of common stock under the Securities Act to allow for a sale by the selling shareholders to the public without restriction. Each of the selling shareholders and the participating brokers or dealers may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act, in which event any profit on the sale of shares by such selling shareholder, and any commissions or discounts received by the brokers or dealers, may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The selling shareholders must offer and sell their shares for the fixed price of $1.000 for the duration of the offering.
The registration of the shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus does not necessarily mean that any shares of our common stock will be sold by any of the selling shareholders, and we cannot predict when or in what amounts any of the selling shareholders may sell any of our shares of common stock offered by this prospectus.
Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink Marketplace under the symbol “AOAO.” On October 29, 2024, the closing price of our common stock was $2.38.
We are not selling any shares of our common stock under this prospectus and will not receive any proceeds from any sale or disposition by the selling shareholders of the shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus. We are paying the expenses incurred in registering the shares.
Alpha One Inc. (“AOAO”) is not an operating company but a holding company incorporated in the State of Wyoming. Substantially all of the business operations are conducted in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC” or “China”) by our PRC subsidiary. Shares of common stock registered in this prospectus are shares of a U.S. holding company, which does not conduct operations. As used in this prospectus, “we,” “us,” “our” or “the Company” refers to Alpha One Inc. Or the U.S. holding company.
We face various legal and operational risks and uncertainties relating to our subsidiary’s operations in China. Because substantially all of our operations are conducted in China through our PRC subsidiary, the Chinese government may intervene or influence the operation of our PRC subsidiary and exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of their business and may intervene in or influence their operations at any time, or may exert more control over securities offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, which could result in a material change in operations of our PRC subsidiary and/or the value of our common stock. Further, any actions by the Chinese government to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers 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. See “Risk Factors - Risks Related to Doing Business in China -Any actions by the Chinese government to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers 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” on page 18.
In recent years, the PRC government initiated a series of regulatory actions and made a number of public statements on the regulation of business operations in China, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, enhancing supervision over China-based companies listed overseas, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not engaged in any monopolistic behavior and our business does not control more than one million users’ personal information as of the date of this prospectus, implicate cybersecurity, or involve any other type of restricted industry. However, we cannot affirm that PRC regulators share the same interpretation. Because these statements and regulatory actions are new and subject to change, it is difficult for us to predict how quickly the legislative or administrative regulation making bodies in China will respond to companies, or what existing or new laws or regulations will be amended or promulgated, if any, or the potential impact such amended or new legislation will have on our daily business operations or our ability to accept foreign investments and list on a U.S. stock exchange. See “Prospectus Summary — Recent PRC Regulatory Developments” beginning on page 4 of this prospectus.
On February 17, 2023, the CSRC released the New Overseas Listing Rules, which came into effect on March 31, 2023. The New Overseas Listing Rules apply to overseas securities offerings and/or listings conducted by (i) companies incorporated in the PRC, or PRC domestic companies, directly and (ii) companies incorporated overseas with operations primarily in the PRC and valued on the basis of interests in PRC domestic companies, or indirect offerings. The New Overseas Listing Rules requires (1) the filings of the overseas offering and listing plan by the PRC domestic companies with the CSRC under certain conditions, and (2) the filing of their underwriters with the CSRC under certain conditions and the submission of an annual report to of such filed underwriters the CSRC within the required timeline. The required filing scope is not limited to the initial public offering, but also includes subsequent overseas securities offerings, single or multiple acquisition(s), share swap, transfer of shares or other means to seek an overseas direct or indirect listing, a secondary listing or dual listing. On the same day, the CSRC also held a press conference for the release of the New Overseas Listing Rules and issued the Overseas Listing Notice. Under the Overseas Listing Notice, a company that (i) has already completed overseas listing or (ii) has already obtained the approval for the offering or listing from overseas securities regulators or exchanges but has not completed such offering or listing before effective date of the New Overseas Listing Rules and also completes the offering or listing before September 30, 2023 will be considered as an existing listed company and is not required to make any filing until it conducts a new offering in the future. For the company that has already submitted offering and listing applications but not yet obtained the approvals from overseas securities regulators or exchanges shall choose to make its filing with the CSRC at a reasonable time but before the completion of the offering/listing. For the company that has already obtained CSRC approval, which was substituted by the filing requirements upon the effectiveness of the Trial Measures, for overseas listing or offering can continue its process during the valid term of the CSRC approval without additional filing and it shall make the CSRC filing pursuant to the New Overseas Listing Rules if it does not complete the offering or listing before the expiration of the original approval from CSRC.
On May 7, 2024, the CSRC released of the guidelines “Overseas Offering and Listing No. 7 Regulatory Requirements for Domestic Companies Transferring Offering and Listing from overseas OTC Market to Overseas Stock Exchange”, rules are, (i) According to Article 1 and Article 2 of new regulations, overseas offering and listing refers to offering and listing activities in overseas stock exchanges, and listing of domestic companies in overseas OTC market is out of scope for the filing requirement; (ii) According to Article 16 of new regulations, domestic companies that seek initial public offering or listing in overseas market shall file with CSRC within 3 working days after the relevant application is submitted overseas, and offering and listing in other overseas market than where it has offered and listed shall be filed with CSRC within 3 working days after the relevant application is submitted overseas; and (iii) According to Notice of Filing Management Arrangements for Domestic Companies Seeking Offering and Listing in Overseas Market, since new regulations came into effect (which is 31st March, 2023), domestic companies that have submitted application to overseas market other than where it has offered and listed, but do not get approval from overseas regulator or stock exchanges yet, shall file with CSRC before offering and listing procedures are completed. We are listing in overseas OTC market and not transferring Offering and Listing from Overseas OTC Market to Overseas Stock Exchange currently. According to the CSRC Guidelines of Regulatory Rules, we are not subjected to the Trial Administrative Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies, or the Trial Measures, which became effective on March 31, 2023.
The Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, or the HFCAA, was enacted on December 18, 2020, and was amended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 enacted on December 29, 2022. The amended HFCAA states if the SEC determines that we have filed audit reports issued by a registered public accounting firm that has not been subject to inspection by the PCAOB for two consecutive years, the SEC shall prohibit our Common stock from being traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter trading market in the United States. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 reduced the number of consecutive non-inspection years required for triggering the prohibitions under the HFCAA from three years to two years. The PCAOB issued a Determination Report on December 16, 2021 (the “Determination Report”) which found that the PCAOB was unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong because of a position taken by one or more authorities in those jurisdictions. Furthermore, the Determination Report identified the specific registered public accounting firms which are subject to these determinations (“PCAOB Identified Firms”). Our auditor, Bush & Associates CPA LLC, the independent registered public accounting firm that issues the audit report included elsewhere 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 U.S. pursuant to which the PCAOB conducts regular inspections to assess its compliance with the applicable professional standards. Bush & Associates CPA LLC is headquartered in Nevada, and, as of the date of this prospectus, was not included in the list of PCAOB Identified Firms in the Determination Report. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB issued a report that vacated its December 16, 2021, determination and removed mainland China and Hong Kong from the list of jurisdictions where it is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms.
Each year, the PCAOB will determine whether it can inspect and investigate audit firms in mainland China and Hong Kong, among other jurisdictions. If the PCAOB determines in the future that it no longer has full access to inspect and investigate accounting firms in mainland China and Hong Kong and we use an accounting firm headquartered in one of these jurisdictions to issue an audit report on our financial statements filed with the SEC, we would be identified as a “Commission-Identified Issuer” following the filing of the annual report on Form 10-K for the relevant fiscal year. There can be no assurance that we would not be identified as a “Commission-Identified Issuer” for any future fiscal year, and if we were so identified for two consecutive years, we would become subject to the prohibition on trading under the HFCAA. The delisting of our Common stock, or the threat of their being delisted, may materially and adversely affect the value of your investment. These risks could result in a material adverse change in our operations and the value of our Common stock, significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors or cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or become worthless.
Cash may be transferred within our organization in the following manners: (i) we may transfer funds to our PRC subsidiary by way of capital contributions or loans, through intermediate holding companies, such as our Hong Kong subsidiary; (ii) we or our intermediate holding company may provide loans to our PRC operating subsidiary directly and vice versa; and (iii) our PRC subsidiary may make dividends or other distributions to us through our intermediate holding subsidiaries.
As of the date of this prospectus, we have not made dividend or other distributions to our shareholders. We may pay dividends to our shareholders subject to our ability to service our debts as they become due and provided that our assets will exceed our liabilities after the payment of such dividends. As a holding company, we may rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our subsidiaries for our cash and liquidity requirements, including payment of any debt we may incur outside of China and our expenses. If any of our subsidiaries incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing such debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends to us. To the extent cash or assets in the business is in the PRC or a PRC subsidiary, the cash or assets may not be available to fund operations or for other use outside of the PRC due to interventions in or the imposition of restrictions and limitations on our or our subsidiaries’ ability by the PRC government to transfer cash or assets. PRC laws and regulations applicable to our PRC subsidiaries permit payments of dividends only out of their retained earnings, if any, determined in accordance with applicable accounting standards and regulations. Our PRC subsidiaries may pay dividends only out of their respective accumulated after-tax profits as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, our subsidiaries are required to set aside at least 10% of its accumulated after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund certain statutory reserve funds, until the aggregate amount of such funds reaches 50% of its registered capital. At its discretion, a wholly foreign-owned enterprise may allocate a portion of its after-tax profits to discretionary funds. These reserve funds and discretionary funds are not distributable as cash dividends. Furthermore, dividends paid by our WFOE subsidiaries to their parent companies will be subject to a 10% withholding tax, which can be reduced to 5% if certain requirements are met. The PRC government also imposes restrictions on the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of the PRC. As such, we may experience difficulties in completing the administrative procedures necessary to obtain and remit foreign currency for the payment of dividends from our profits, if any. As of the date of this prospectus, none of our subsidiaries has made any dividends or other distributions to us.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus contains “forward-looking statements”. Forward-looking statements reflect the current view about future events. When used in this prospectus, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forward-looking statements. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this prospectus relating to our business strategy, our future operating results and liquidity and capital resources outlook. Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of assurance of future performance. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, without limitation, a continued decline in general economic conditions nationally and internationally; decreased demand for our products and services; market acceptance of our products and services; the impact of any infringement actions or other litigation brought against us; competition from other providers and products; our ability to develop and commercialize new and improved products and services; our ability to raise capital to fund continuing operations; changes in government regulation that relate to our business, and more specifically, how we market and sell products; our ability to complete customer transactions and capital raising transactions; and other factors (including the risks contained in the section of this prospectus entitled “Risk Factors”) relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations and any businesses that may be acquired by us. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.
Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

On September 10, 2021, the Company’s name was changed from World Mobile Holdings, Inc. to Alpha One Inc, The Company had been engaged in the various business since its incorporation. The Company was not successful and discontinued the majority of its operation by December 31, 2016. Beginning from January 2017, the Company plans on providing business services and financing to emerging growth entities.
On October 8, 2019, Haining Zhang, filed a petition with the District Court, Clark County, Nevada, and the Court ordered that Mr. Zhang was appointed as receiver for the Company. Consequently, Mr. Zhang is granted the authority to conduct business of the Company pursuant to N.R.S. 78.630. Haining Zhang was appointed the sole officer and director at that time.
On October 15, 2019, the Company issued 100,000,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $0.001, to Mr. Zhang, our CEO, for $100,000, $99,950 of which was subsequently expensed in its operation by December 31, 2019, and the balance was expensed in its operation in 2020.
On February 8, 2021, the previously issued 100,000,000 shares of common stock were canceled in connection with changes in the Company’s strategic direction.
| 2 |
On March 30, 2021, 100,000,000 shares of common stock, under the control of Haining Zhang, were transferred to Zhuo Wang. As a result, Haining Zhang resigned as the sole officer and director, and Shuhua Liu was appointed as the sole director and CEO of the Company.
On May 1, 2021 the Company amended its article of incorporation to change its authorized capital as following: 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share; 450,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share. 500,000 shares of Preferred Stock are designated Series A Preferred Stock. On June 17, 2021, the Company issued 245,000 shares of preferred stock to Zhuo Wang, 198,900 shares of preferred stock to Shuhua Liu, and 56,100 shares of preferred stock to Goldcrown International (HK) Limited, controlled by Wei Chen, as compensation for services provided.
On September 10, 2021, the Company effectuated a 100-for-1 reverse stock split, which resulted in a new total of 1,359,447 shares of common stock.

Upon completion of the merger, all of the outstanding shares of Zhongyun BVI’s common stock were exchanged for 25,450,086 shares of common stock of AOAO. Prior to the merger, Shuhua Liu and her spouse directly and indirectly obtained the total 49.65% controlled of AOAO, and 50% indirectly controlled of Zhongyun BVI by Zhongyun Global International Group Limited. Shuhua Liu is the sole director of AOAO and Zhongyun BVI. As AOAO and Zhongyun BV were under common control at the time of the share exchange, the transaction is accounted for as a combination of entities under common control in a manner similar to the pooling-of-interests method of accounting. Following the Merger, Shuhua Liu and her spouse directly and indirectly obtained the 49.77% controlled of AOAO. Immediately after completion of such share exchange, the Company has a total of 76,809,533 issued and outstanding shares of common stock, with authorized common shares of 450,000,000.
Consequently, the Company has ceased to fall under the definition of shell company as define in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Zhongyun BVI is now a wholly owned subsidiary.

Status of “Smaller Reporting Company”

We have elected to comply with the scaled disclosure requirements applicable to “smaller reporting companies,” including providing two years of audited financial statements. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (1) the market value of our Common Stock held by non-affiliates is equal to or exceeds $250 million and (2) our annual revenues were equal to or exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year and the market value of our Common Stock held by non-affiliates is equal to or exceeds $700 million.
Recent PRC Regulatory Developments
In recent years, the PRC government initiated a series of regulatory actions and made a number of public statements on the regulation of business operations in China, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, enhancing supervision over China-based companies listed overseas, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement.
Among other things, the Regulations on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors (the “M&A Rules”) and the Anti-Monopoly Law of the People’s Republic of China promulgated by the SCNPC which became effective in 2008 (“Anti-Monopoly Law”), established additional procedures and requirements that could make merger and acquisition activities by foreign investors more time-consuming and complex. Such regulation requires, among other things, that the Ministry of Commerce of the People’s Republic of China (the “MOFCOM”) be notified in advance of any change-of-control transaction in which a foreign investor acquires control of a PRC domestic enterprise or a foreign company with substantial PRC operations, if certain thresholds under the Provisions of the State Council on the Standard for Declaration of Concentration of Business Operators, issued by the State Council in 2008, are triggered. Moreover, the Anti-Monopoly Law requires that transactions which involve the national security, the examination on the national security shall also be conducted according to the relevant provisions of the Measures for the Safety Examination of Foreign Investment. In addition, the PRC Measures for the Security Review of Foreign Investment which became effective in January 2021 require acquisitions by foreign investors of PRC companies engaged in military-related or certain other industries that are crucial to national security be subject to security review before consummation of any such acquisition.
On July 6, 2021, the relevant PRC government authorities made public the Opinions on Strictly Cracking Down on Illegal Securities Activities in Accordance with the Law (the “Opinions”). These opinions emphasized the need to strengthen the administration over illegal securities activities and the supervision on overseas listings by China-based companies and proposed to take effective measures, such as promoting the construction of relevant regulatory systems to deal with the risks and incidents faced by China-based overseas-listed companies. Pursuant to the Opinions, Chinese regulators are required to accelerate rulemaking related to the overseas issuance and listing of securities, and update the existing laws and regulations related to data security, cross-border data flow, and management of confidential information. Numerous regulations, guidelines and other measures are expected to be adopted under the umbrella of or in addition to the Cybersecurity Law of the PRC (the “Cybersecurity Law”) and the Data Security Law. As of the date of this prospectus, no official guidance or related implementation rules have been issued yet and the interpretation of these opinions remains unclear at this stage. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Doing Business in China on page 15 to page 20, Any failure to comply with applicable laws and requirements could have a material and adverse effect on our business.

On December 28, 2021, the Cybersecurity Review Measures (2021 version), which were promulgated and became effective on February 15, 2022, provide that any “online platform operators” possessing personal information of more than one million users which seeks to list in a foreign stock exchange should be subject to cybersecurity review. The Cybersecurity Review Measures (2021 version), further list the factors to be considered when assessing the national security risks of the relevant activities, including, among others, (i) the risk of core data, important data or a large amount of personal information being stolen, leaked, destroyed, and illegally used or exited the country; and (ii) the risk of critical information infrastructure, core data, important data or a large amount of personal information being affected, controlled, or maliciously used by foreign governments after listing abroad. The CAC requires that under the new rules, companies possessing personal information of more than one million users must now apply for cybersecurity approval when seeking listings in other nations because of the risk that such data and personal information could be “affected, controlled, and maliciously exploited by foreign governments.” Any failure to comply with applicable laws and requirements could have a material and adverse effect on our business.
As of the date of this prospectus, we have not engaged in any monopolistic behavior and our business does not control more than one million users’ personal information, implicate cybersecurity, or involve any other type of restricted industry. As advised by our PRC legal counsel, Inner Mongolia Shuoda Law Firm, as of the date of this prospectus, we are not required to declare a cybersecurity review with the CAC, according to the Measures for Cybersecurity Review, since we are not an online platform operator carrying out data processing activities that affect or may affect national security, and currently do not have over one million users’ personal information and do not anticipate that we will be collecting over one million users’ personal information in the foreseeable future, which we understand might otherwise subject us to the Measures for Cybersecurity Review. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not received any notice from any authorities identifying us as CIIOs or requiring us to undergo a cybersecurity review or network data security review by the CAC. However, we cannot affirm that PRC regulators share the same interpretation. Because these statements and regulatory actions are new and subject to change, it is difficult for us to predict how quickly the legislative or administrative regulation making bodies in China will respond to companies, or what existing or new laws or regulations will be amended or promulgated, if any, or the potential impact such amended or new legislation will have on our daily business operations or our ability to accept foreign investments and list on a U.S. stock exchange.
On February 17, 2023, the CSRC released the New Overseas Listing Rules, which came into effect on March 31, 2023. The New Overseas Listing Rules apply to overseas securities offerings and/or listings conducted by (i) companies incorporated in the PRC, or PRC domestic companies, directly and (ii) companies incorporated overseas with operations primarily in the PRC and valued on the basis of interests in PRC domestic companies, or indirect offerings. The New Overseas Listing Rules requires (1) the filings of the overseas offering and listing plan by the PRC domestic companies with the CSRC under certain conditions, and (2) the filing of their underwriters with the CSRC under certain conditions and the submission of an annual report to of such filed underwriters the CSRC within the required timeline. The required filing scope is not limited to the initial public offering, but also includes subsequent overseas securities offerings, single or multiple acquisition(s), share swap, transfer of shares or other means to seek an overseas direct or indirect listing, a secondary listing or dual listing.
On the same day, the CSRC also held a press conference for the release of the New Overseas Listing Rules and issued the Overseas Listing Notice. Under the Overseas Listing Notice, a company that (i) has already completed overseas listing or (ii) has already obtained the approval for the offering or listing from overseas securities regulators or exchanges but has not completed such offering or listing before effective date of the New Overseas Listing Rules and also completes the offering or listing before September 30, 2023 will be considered as an existing listed company and is not required to make any filing until it conducts a new offering in the future. For the company that has already submitted offering and listing applications but not yet obtained the approvals from overseas securities regulators or exchanges shall choose to make its filing with the CSRC at a reasonable time but before the completion of the offering/listing. For the company that has already obtained CSRC approval, which was substituted by the filing requirements upon the effectiveness of the Trial Measures, for overseas listing or offering can continue its process during the valid term of the CSRC approval without additional filing and it shall make the CSRC filing pursuant to the New Overseas Listing Rules if it does not complete the offering or listing before the expiration of the original approval from CSRC.
On May 7, 2024, the CSRC released of the guidelines “Overseas Offering and Listing No. 7 Regulatory Requirements for Domestic Companies Transferring Offering and Listing from overseas OTC Market to Overseas Stock Exchange”, rules are, (i) According to Article 1 and Article 2 of new regulations, overseas offering and listing refers to offering and listing activities in overseas stock exchanges, and listing of domestic companies in overseas OTC market is out of scope for the filing requirement; (ii) According to Article 16 of new regulations, domestic companies that seek initial public offering or listing in overseas market shall file with CSRC within 3 working days after the relevant application is submitted overseas, and offering and listing in other overseas market than where it has offered and listed shall be filed with CSRC within 3 working days after the relevant application is submitted overseas; and (iii) According to Notice of Filing Management Arrangements for Domestic Companies Seeking Offering and Listing in Overseas Market, since new regulations came into effect (which is 31st March, 2023), domestic companies that have submitted application to overseas market other than where it has offered and listed, but do not get approval from overseas regulator or stock exchanges yet, shall file with CSRC before offering and listing procedures are completed. We are listing in overseas OTC market and not transferring Offering and Listing from Overseas OTC Market to Overseas Stock Exchange currently. According to the CSRC Guidelines of Regulatory Rules, we are not subjected to the Trial Administrative Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies, or the Trial Measures, which became effective on March 31, 2023.

We have been closely monitoring regulatory developments in China regarding any necessary approvals from the CSRC, the CAC or other PRC regulatory authorities required for our operations and overseas listings. However, there remains significant uncertainty as to the enactment, interpretation and implementation of regulatory requirements related to overseas securities offerings and other capital markets activities. The PRC government may take actions to exert more oversight and control over offerings by China-based issuers conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in such companies, which could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors outside China and cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or become worthless. If it is determined in the future that the approval or permissions of the CSRC, the CAC or any other regulatory authority is required for our operations through our PRC Subsidiaries and this offering and we or our PRC Subsidiaries do not receive or maintain the approvals or permissions, or we or our PRC Subsidiaries inadvertently conclude that such approvals or permissions are not required, or applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change such that we or our PRC Subsidiaries are required to obtain approvals or permissions in the future, we and our PRC Subsidiaries may be subject to investigations by competent regulators, fines or penalties, ordered to suspend our PRC Subsidiaries’ relevant operations and rectify any non-compliance, limit our ability to pay dividends outside of mainland China, delay or restrict the repatriation of the proceeds from this offering into mainland China or take other actions prohibited from engaging in relevant business or conducting any offering, and these risks could result in a material adverse change in our operations, significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors, or cause such securities to significantly decline in value or become worthless. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Doing Business in China — Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations in accordance with laws and regulations, or may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our shares” and “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Doing Business in China —Any actions by the Chinese government to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers 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” on page 18, of this prospectus.
Cash Transfers and Dividend Distributions
Cash may be transferred within our organization in the following manners: (i) we may transfer funds to our PRC subsidiary by way of capital contributions or loans, through intermediate holding companies, such as our Hong Kong subsidiary; (ii) we or our intermediate holding company may provide loans to our PRC operating subsidiary directly and vice versa; and (iii) our PRC subsidiary may make dividends or other distributions to us through our intermediate holding subsidiaries.
We currently have not maintained any cash management policies that dictate the purpose, amount and procedures for cash transfers between the Company, our subsidiaries, or investors. Rather, the funds can be transferred in accordance with the applicable PRC laws and regulations. To the extent cash or assets in the business is in the PRC or a PRC entity, the funds or assets may not be available to fund operations or for other use outside of the PRC due to the imposition of restrictions and limitations on the ability of us or our subsidiaries by the PRC regulatory authority to transfer cash or assets. As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, our PRC operating subsidiary’s cash held in RBM were $383,682 (equivalent to RMB2,770,310) and $329,994 (equivalent to RMB 2,266,269) respectively. As of September 30, 2024, our PRC operating subsidiary’s cash held in RMB were $3,225 (equivalent to RMB22,636).
Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payment of current account item, such as profit distributions and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or the SAFE, by complying with certain procedural requirements. Therefore, our PRC subsidiary is able to pay dividends in foreign currencies to us without prior approval from SAFE, subject to the condition that the remittance of such dividends outside of the PRC complies with certain procedures under PRC foreign exchange regulations, such as the overseas investment registrations by our shareholders or the ultimate shareholders of our corporate shareholders who are PRC residents. Approval from, or registration with, appropriate government authorities is, however, required where the RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses such as repayment of loans denominated in foreign currencies. The PRC regulatory authority may also at its discretion restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions. Current PRC regulations permit our PRC subsidiary to pay dividends to the Company only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations.
We are a holding company with no material operations of our own and do not generate any revenue. We currently conduct substantially all of our operations through our PRC operating subsidiary Shenzhen Zhongyun. As a holding company, we may rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our subsidiaries, including those based in mainland China,for our cash and liquidity requirements. If any of our subsidiaries incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing such debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends to us. Under Wyoming law, we is permitted to provide funding to our subsidiaries in corporated in the British Virgin Islands and Hong Kong through loans or capital contributions as our board of directors may determine from time to time. Our subsidiary is permitted under the respective laws of the British Virgin Islands and Hong Kong to provide funding to the Company through dividend distribution without restrictions on the amount of the funds. There are no restrictions by the British Virgin Islands and Hong Kong governments on dividend distributions from Hong Kong to the British Virgin Islands and the British Virgin Islands to Wyoming.
Under the PRC laws and regulations, our PRC subsidiaries may pay dividends only out of their respective accumulated after-tax profits as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. The Company is a holding company and its material assets consist solely of the ownership interests held in its PRC subsidiary. The Company relies on dividends paid by its subsidiaries for its working capital and cash needs, including the funds necessary: (i) to pay dividends or cash distributions to its shareholders, (ii) to service any debt obligations and (iii) to pay operating expenses. As a result of PRC laws and regulations that require annual appropriations of 10% of after-tax income to be set aside in a general reserve fund prior to payment of dividends, the Company’s PRC subsidiary is restricted in that respect, in their ability to transfer a portion of their net assets to the Company as a dividend. As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, our PRC operating subsidiary’s net restricted assets were $2,961,361 (equivalent to RMB21,381,980) and $1,431,152 (equivalent to RMB 9,828,589) respectively. As of September 30, 2024, our PRC operating subsidiary’s net restricted assets were $2,282,708 (equivalent to RMB16,020,359).

We and our PRC subsidiary are not required to obtain permissions from the CSRC, the CAC or any other PRC authorities to operate, other than the permits and approvals our PRC subsidiary have already received. However, if we or our subsidiary do not receive or maintain required permissions or approvals, inadvertently conclude that such permissions or approvals are not required, or applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change such that we are required to obtain such permissions or approvals in the future, we may be subject to governmental investigations or enforcement actions, fines, penalties, suspension of operations, or be prohibited from engaging in relevant business or conducting securities offering, and these risks could result in a material adverse change in our operations, significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors, or cause such securities to significantly decline in value or become worthless.
Our PRC subsidiaries are required to obtain certain permits and licenses from the PRC government agencies to operate our business in China, including: (a) business licenses, (b) Construction Enterprise Qualification Certificate, and (c) Safety Production License. We have received such licenses or certificates pursuant to PRC Law.

Companies that have already obtained CSRC approval for overseas listing or offering can continue its process during the valid term of the CSRC approval without additional filing, and shall make the filing pursuant to the New Overseas Listing Rules if they do not complete the offering or listing before the expiration of the original approval from CSRC.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry
The Company’s projects are concentrated in the South of China, in particular Guangdong Province, and any material change pertaining to Guangdong Province may materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations and profitability
The Company was founded and is based in Shenzhen City Guangdong Province, there were thirteen contracts under construction, all the projects located at Guangdong Province (that including twenty-one cities) during the year ended March 31,2023 and a new project located at Guangxi Province during the year ended March 31,2024 The revenue derived from projects located in Guangdong Province during the year ended March 31,2023. and the majority of the revenue derived from projects located in Guangdong Province and minority from Guangxi Province for the year ended March 31, 2024. Given the Company’s concentration in revenue from Guangdong Province, the Company’s business is highly subject to the economic conditions and government policies which affect the Company’s business, results of operations and profitability.
The Company’s business operates on a non-recurring and project by project basis, failure to obtain new projects, and uncertainties in achieving objective of annual output, could materially affect the Company’s business and results of operations
The Company’s business operates on a project-by-project basis, as such they are non-recurring in nature. The Company has planned the annual output (represents the value of completed telecommunication engineering services, including accepted and pending acceptance work, for the fiscal year. It does not represent expected revenues.) and profits according to the projects under construction and coming projects (refer to the projects that the Company anticipates opportunities to participate in bidding or tending in the future), in order for the Company to undertake new projects, the Company must either participate in open tendering to compete for project made available by potential customers or await customers to approach the Company to solicit its services. As such, given the non-recurring nature of the Company’s projects, the Director believe that the Company’s future growth and success will depend on the Company’s ability to continue to secure projects. The Company cannot assure you that it will be able to secure projects from the Company’s existing or potential customers. In the event that there is a significant decrease in the number of projects or scale in terms of contract value of the projects awarded by the Company’s customers, the Company’s business and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. The Company’s current revenue, which is on a non-recurring project basis and sales of third party product, is substantially less than our objective, and that substantial doubt exists regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.
We are heavily dependent on one supplier on the supply of our intelligent products, the loss of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations
We are heavily dependent on one supplier “Shenzhen JingMeiJing Technology Co., Ltd” for the supply of our intelligent products. For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the supplier accounted for approximately 81% and nil of our total purchases respectively. For the six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the supplier accounted for nil of our total purchases.
We have purchased, and expect to continue to purchase products from the supplier under our purchase agreements with it. Our agreement with the supplier is valid for two years after the products acceptance is qualified. These agreements may be terminated or rescinded earlier by mutual agreements to terminate, or occurrence of force majeure. In the event that we are unable to purchase products upon early termination or expiration of our agreement with the supplier, our business would be harmed.
The unavailability of certain products, delays in the delivery of certain products or the delivery of products that does not meet our specifications could impair our ability to meet customers’ orders. We are also subject to credit risk with respect to our suppliers. If any such suppliers become insolvent, an appointed trustee could potentially ignore the contracts we have in place with such party, resulting in increased charges or the termination of the supply contracts. We may not be able to replace a supplier within a reasonable period of time, on as favorable terms or without disruption to our operations. Any adverse changes to our relationships with suppliers could have a material adverse effect on our image, brand and reputation, as well as on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We are highly dependent on the service of Ms. Shuhua Liu of the Company and our President, Secretary, Treasurer and Chairman of the Board of Directors
We are highly dependent on the services of Ms. Shuhua Liu, Alpha One Inc. and our Chief Executive Officer. Although Ms. Shuhua Liu spends significant time (seven hours per working day) with the Company and is highly active in our management, she does not devote her full time and attention to the Company. For example: Ms. Shuhua Liu also currently holds management positions at Alpha One Holdings Co., Ltd, she reviewed the management report quarterly and yearly, which took her about half a day monthly to handle the matter.

The Company had operating cash outflows for the years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, and the Company’s cash flows may deteriorate due to potential mismatches in the time between receipt of payments from the Company’s customers, and payments to the Company’s suppliers, failure to appropriately evaluate the credit profile of our customers and/or delay in settlement of accounts receivable from our customers which may impact its operating cash flow position
The Company relies on its suppliers to provide the necessary labour and materials for its projects, and relies upon the cash inflow from its customers to meet the payment obligations towards its suppliers. The Company’s cash inflows are dependent upon a variety of factors including certification by its customers and the prompt settlement of its invoices. If such payment is delayed, the Company may be required to fund the cost of works for a lengthy period of time until the Company’s payment application is approved and paid for. As at March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s accounts payable, accrued and other payables amounted to $5.66 million and $2.80 million respectively. Whereas for the corresponding dates, the Company’s account receivables amount to $9.75 million and $5.72 million respectively. As at September 30, 2024, the Company’s accounts payable, accrued and other payables amounted to $5.63 million and the net accounts receivable amount to $9.63 million. Nevertheless, even if the Company’s customers settle such payments on time and in full, there can be no assurance that the Company would not experience any significant cash flow mismatch which would affect the Company’s operating cash flow position as the Company may be required to provide prepayments pursuant to the arrangement with its suppliers. For the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2024 and for the six months ended September 30, 2024, the Company would in certain circumstances, depending on the scale of works required, provide its material suppliers with an advance payment of approximately 30% of the contract value as stipulated in the work order. Hence, if the Company undertakes a large number of projects, it would pose significant pressure on its cash flow and the Company may record net operating cash outflow.
Due to uncertainty of the timing of collection, we established an allowance for doubtful accounts based on account analysis and historical collection trends. We established a provision for doubtful receivables when there is objective evidence that the Company may not be able to collect due amounts. The allowance is based on management’s best estimates of specific losses on the exposures and a provision on historical trends of collections. Based on the management of customers’ credit and ongoing relationship, management determines whether any balances outstanding at the end of the period will be deemed uncollectible, both on customer basis and through an aging analysis basis. Delinquent account balances are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable. We have $6.25 million and $3.52 million overdues one year (aging over 360 days) as at September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024 respectively.
We have implemented policies and measures to enhance our credit risk management and improve the collection of overdue or long-outstanding accounts receivable. However, given the nature of our business, we cannot guarantee that our substantial accounts receivable position will not persist.
Any deterioration in the credit profile of our customers or delays in their payments could impact our cash flow. If we are required to rely on bank or other borrowings to meet our liabilities, it could place significant pressure on our operating cash flow. This may lead to adverse effects on our business operations, financial performance, and potential liquidity risks in the future.
Failure to properly estimate the risks, time and cost involved in a project or delays in completion may lead to cost overruns and affect the Company’s financial conditions and profitability
When determining the offer price for its projects, the Company generally adopts a cost-plus pricing model after taking into account factors including, the nature, scale, complexity and location of the relevant project, as well as the estimated material, labour and equipment cost. As such, whether the Company is able to achieve its target profitability in any project is significantly dependent on its ability to accurately estimate and control these costs. The actual time taken and cost involved in implementing the Company’s project may be adversely affected by a number of factors, such as shortage or cost escalation of materials and labor, adverse weather conditions, accidents, and any other unforeseen problems and circumstances. As of the aforesaid factors may give rise to delays in completion of works or cost overruns, which in turn result in a lower profit margin or even a loss for a project, thereby materially and adversely affecting the Company’s financial condition, profitability or liquidity.
The Company’s performance depends on prevailing market conditions and trends in the Telecommunications Infrastructure Services industry, and Infrastructure Digitalisation Solution Services industry and in the overall state of economy in PRC
All of the Company’s operations are based in, and all of the Company’s revenue was derived from the PRC for the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, and the Directors expect the Company’s business will continue to be based in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s future performance depends on the prevailing market conditions and trends in the telecommunications industry in the PRC. The future growth and level of profitability is likely to depend primarily upon the continued availability of large-scale projects, which will be determined by the interplay of various factors. These factors include, in particular, the PRC government’s policies and initiatives, the spending budgets and patterns of the Company’s customers, and the general conditions and prospects of the PRC economy. If the government authorities adopt regulations that place additional restrictions or burdens on the telecommunications industry, the Company’s customers may be more conservative in their spending budgets, and the demand for Telecommunications Infrastructure Services and Infrastructure Digitalisation Solution Services in the PRC may deteriorate, which in turn materially and adversely affect the Company’s operations and profitability. In addition, the Company’s performance and financial condition also depend on the state of the economy in the PRC. If there is a downturn in the economy of the PRC, the Company’s results of operations and financial position may be adversely affected. In addition to economic factors, social unrest or civil movements may also affect the state of the economy in the PRC, and in such cases, the Company’s operations and financial position may also be adversely affected.
The Company is exposed to claims arising from latent defects that may be caused by itself or its suppliers in the past, the discovery of which may have material negative impact on the Company’s reputation, business and results of operations
The Company may face claims arising from latent defects that might be existing but not yet discovered or developed. Such possible latent defects may be caused by the Company itself or its suppliers in the past. If there are claims against the Company for such latent defects when they are discovered, the Company may be held primarily liable even if the defects are caused by its suppliers without the Company’s fault. Further, due to the passage of time, the Company may be unable to locate the relevant suppliers to hold them accountable, or to procure them to rectify the defect (if it is rectifiable at all), or obtain compensation for any loss or damages caused by such defects. Latent defects may include use of materials not meeting the specifications as stipulated in the relevant contracts, which may not be discovered despite the inspection and acceptance by the customers of the works prior to completion, and remain undiscovered for years after the completion of the relevant project.
| 11 |
In the event that there are any significant claims against the Company by its customers or other party for any latent defects, the Company’s results of operations and financial position may be materially and adversely affected. Even if such latent defects do not involve any non-compliance with laws or regulations, or breach of any contractual obligations on the Company’s part, it may be required to rectify such defects or take preventive or remedial measures, such as conducting reviews, tests or examinations on the works in the past, because of the negative publicity or to prevent the reputation of the Company from being negatively affected. As a result, the Company’s operation, business and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.
Legal and arbitration proceedings may arise and affect the Company’s business, operations and financial results
The Company may be subject to claims in respect of various matters from its customers, suppliers, workers and other parties concerned with the Company’s projects from time to time. Such claims may include claims for compensation for late completion of works and delivery of substandard works or, claims in respect of personal injuries and labour compensation in relation to the works, for which the Company may have to incur costs to defend itself in legal and arbitration proceedings. If the Company is not successful in defending itself in any proceedings, it may be liable to pay damages. Such payments may be significant, and if fall outside the scope and/or limit of the Company’s insurance coverage or monies retained from its labour suppliers, the Company’s business operations and financial position may be adversely affected.
Legal proceedings can be time-consuming, expensive, and may divert the Company’s management’s attention away from the operation of the Company’s business. Any claims or legal proceedings to which the Company may become a party in the future may have a material and adverse impact on the Company’s business. The Company also need to divert resources and incur extra costs to handle the aforementioned outstanding and potential claims, which could affect the Company’s corporate image and reputation in the telecommunications industry if they were published by the press. If the aforementioned claims were successfully made against the Company, it would result in legal costs and damages to be paid to the claimants, which in turn could materially and adversely affect the Company’s revenue, results of operations and financial position.
Our independent registered public accounting firm has expressed doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, which may hinder our ability to obtain future financing.
Our audited consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2024 and 2023 have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, we have incurred a net loss of $860,310 and net cash used in operating activities of $1,333,237. Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued a report that included an explanatory paragraph referring to our recurring losses from operations and net capital deficiency and expressing substantial doubt in our ability to continue as a going concern without additional capital becoming available. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, attain further operating efficiencies, collect the accounts receivable, reduce expenditures, and, ultimately, to generate revenue. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

We rely entirely on the operations of Shenzhen Zhongyun. Any successes or failures of Shenzhen Zhongyun will directly impact our financial condition and may cause your investment to be either positively or negatively impacted.
At present, we share the same business plan as, and rely entirely upon, Shenzhen Zhongyun. Any successes or failures of Shenzhen Zhongyun will directly impact our financial condition and may cause your investment to be either positively or negatively impacted. As such, in the event that the business of operations of Shenzhen Zhongyun were to fail, then our own business would, in turn, fail as well. We would be forced to either drastically alter our business strategy, or we would likely cease operations entirely, which could result in the whole or partial loss of any investments made in the company.
Competition from both large, established industry participants and new market entrants may negatively affect our current and future results of operations.
The domestic competition in the electronic products trading and telecommunication engineering services is quite fierce. We may face the competition challenges in the industry, including price competition, advertising campaign, product introduction and increasing customer service business. If our competitive action has a significant impact on our competitors, it may provoke them against or respond to the action, including the information on price, volume, competitive pattern and outsourcing cost, etc.
There may be potential entrants in our industry, either a new enterprise or an enterprise originally engaged in other industries with a diversified business strategy. Potential entrants will bring new production capacity and require a certain market share. The threat to the industry posed by potential entrants depends on the barriers to entry in the industry and the strong reaction of existing enterprises after entering the new industry. If the enterprises entering the industry are mature in size and technology, they may negatively affect our current and future results of operations.
We face increasingly intense competition in markets in which we operate.
Some of our competitors may have greater financial, sales and marketing, research and development, manpower, or other resources than we do. Some new market entrants may acquire market share by leveraging existing business relationships and acquiring new technologies from third parties. Our competitors may also be more responsive to changes in technologies or customer requirements, or offer similar products or services at lower prices. All of the foregoing factors may intensify market competition, and we may face pressure in product and service pricing and competition for orders. Any adverse or unforeseeable change in our competitive environment may have a material and adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operation and financial position.
There are uncertainties regarding the interpretation and enforcement of PRC laws and regulations
The Company’s operating subsidiary is principally based in the PRC and is subject to the laws and regulations of the PRC. The PRC legal system is based on statutory laws. Under this system, prior court decisions may be cited for reference but do not have binding precedential effect. Since 1979, the PRC government has been developing a comprehensive legal system and considerable progress has been made in the promulgation of laws and regulations dealing with economic matters, such as corporate organization and governance, property title, foreign investment, commerce, taxation and trade. As these laws and regulation are relatively new and evolving, and because of the limited volume of published cases and judicial interpretations, and the non-binding nature of prior court decisions, the interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involves some uncertainties. Such uncertainties may lead to difficulties in enforcing the Company’s rights and in resolving disputes with any persons and could result in unanticipated costs and liabilities.
The success of our business relies heavily on brand image, reputation, and product quality.
It is important that we maintain and improve the image and reputation of our existing brands and products. Concerns about product quality, even when unsubstantiated, could be harmful to our image and reputation of our brands and products. While we have quality control programs in place, in the event we experienced an issue with product quality, we may experience recalls or liability in addition to business disruption which could further negatively impact brand image and reputation and negatively affect our sales. Our brand image and reputation may also be more difficult to protect due to less oversight and control as a result of the outsourcing of some of our operations. We also could be exposed to lawsuits relating to product liability or marketing or sales practices. Deterioration to our brand equity may be difficult to combat or reverse and could have a material effect on our business and financial results.

Uncertainty about future market prices (interest rates, exchange rates, stock prices and commodity prices) can adversely affect our business.
Market risks can be divided into interest rate risks, exchange rate risks, stock price risks and commodity price risks. These market factors may directly affect our production, or competitors, suppliers or consumers may indirectly affect our business. Our business model may be suppressed if substitutes emerge in the market for our products, which are other products that can achieve the same function. The threat of alternatives is threefold:
1. The competitiveness of substitutes in price;
2. Satisfaction with the quality and performance of substitutes;
3. How easy it is for customers to switch to substitutes.
At present, there is no substitute for the product itself, unless it is an industry substitute or a new technology emerges. For example, the emergence of new energy vehicles or disruptive products. This will have a destructive effect on our sales
We have historically relied, and expect to continue to rely, a large portion of our revenue was generated from our two major customers, and we do not have long-term contract with them. The loss of any of two major customers could significantly harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
For the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, we have four customers and three customers accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenues respectively. For the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2024, we have three customers and two customers accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenues respectively. Our two major customers accounted for 57% and 56% for the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2024 respectively. Our two major customers accounted for 67% and 92% for the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2024 respectively. There is no assurance that we would be able to increase the number of customers to reduce our reliance on our two major customers. We do not have long-term sales agreements or other contractual assurances as to future sales of our two major customers except for sales contract related to intelligent products and construction contract for telecommunication projects. The sales are generally concluded on an order -by -order basis under business purchase order. The projects are generally concluded on the winning project.
There is no assurance that our customers will continue to place orders to us; or their future orders will be at a comparative level or on similar terms as in prior years. It is uncertain that we would be able to retain our two major customers or solicit new customers to offset the impact from any loss of such customers. Any reduction in revenue from our existing customers and/or any loss of our two major customers could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and financial performance. As a result, if we fail to successfully attract or retain new or existing two major customers or if existing two major customers run fewer products or services purchase with us, defer or cancel their insertion orders, or terminate their relationship with us altogether, whether through the actions of their agency representatives or otherwise, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be harmed.
An increase in the cost of energy or the cost of environmental regulatory compliance could affect our profitability.
The energy costs could continue to rise, which would result in higher transportation, freight and other operating costs. We may experience significant future increases in the costs associated with environmental regulatory compliance, including fees, licenses and the cost of capital improvements to our operating facilities in order to meet environmental regulatory requirements. Future operating expenses and margins will be dependent on the ability to manage the impact of cost increases. We cannot guarantee that it will be able to pass along increased energy costs or increased costs associated with environmental regulatory compliance to our customers through increased prices.
The requirements of being a public company may strain our resources, divert our management’s attention and affect our ability to attract and retain qualified board members.
As a public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and are required to comply with the applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and other applicable securities rules and regulations. Compliance with these rules and regulations have increased our legal and financial compliance costs, made some activities more difficult, time-consuming or costly and increased demand on our systems and resources. Among other things, the Exchange Act requires that we file annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to our business and results of operations and maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting. In order to maintain and, if required, improve our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting to meet this standard, significant resources and management oversight may be required. As a result, management’s attention may be diverted from other business concerns, which could harm our business and results of operations. We may need to hire more employees to comply with these requirements in the future, which will increase our costs and expenses.
| 14 |
We may engage in acquisitions, investments or strategic alliances in the future, which could require significant management attention and materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.
We may identify strategic partners to form strategic alliances, invest in or acquire additional assets, technologies or businesses that are complementary to our existing business. These investments may involve minority stakes in other companies, acquisitions of entire companies or acquisitions of selected assets.
Any future strategic alliances, investments or acquisitions and the subsequent integration of the new assets and businesses obtained or developed from such transactions into our own may divert management from their primary responsibilities and subject us to additional liabilities. In addition, the costs of identifying and consummating investments and acquisitions may be significant. We may also incur costs and experience uncertainties in completing necessary registrations and obtaining necessary approvals from relevant government authorities in China and elsewhere in the world. The costs and duration of integrating newly acquired assets and businesses could also materially exceed our expectations. Any such negative developments could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.
We have identified material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting.
We identified material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. 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 financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The material weaknesses identified include (i) the Company did not maintain a functioning independent audit committee and did not maintain an independent board; (ii) the Company had inadequate segregation of duties; and (iii) the Company had an insufficient number of personnel with an appropriate level of U.S. GAAP knowledge and experience and ongoing training in the application of U.S. GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements commensurate with the Company’s financial reporting requirements.
As of this prospectus, we have engaged a finance consulting firm with U.S. GAAP expertise to train our finance team and enhance their understanding of accounting standards and reporting practices. To address segregation of duties and improve oversight, we have increased staffing in our finance department.
We are also planning to establish an independent audit committee and are actively identifying qualified candidates with relevant expertise to oversee financial reporting and internal controls. Additionally, we intend to recruit a financial controller experienced in U.S. GAAP to strengthen financial management and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.
These initiatives will involve additional costs, including increased salaries and consulting fees. We anticipate fully addressing the identified material weaknesses within approximately one and a half years, contingent on the successful implementation of these measures and the recruitment of qualified personnel.
If not remediated, our failure to establish and maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting could result in material misstatements in our financial statements and a failure to meet our reporting and financial obligations, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and the trading price of our common stock.
An occurrence of a natural disaster, widespread health epidemic or other outbreaks, such as COVID-19, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company’s business could be materially and adversely affected by natural disasters or the outbreak of a widespread health epidemic, such as swine flu, avian influenza, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) or COVID-19. The occurrence of a natural disaster or a prolonged outbreak of an epidemic illness, or other adverse public health developments in the PRC could materially disrupt the Company’s business and operations. In particular, the outbreak of COVID-19 which was first reported in late 2019 and spread within the PRC and globally, has caused significant disruption in the economic activities. As the Company’s operations, customers and suppliers are located in the PRC, the outbreak of COVID-19 in the PRC may affect the telecommunications industry, and cause temporary suspension of projects and shortage of labour, materials and equipment and other services, which would severely disrupt the Company’s operations and have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company’s operations could also be disrupted if any of its employees or employees of the Company’s labour suppliers were suspected of contacting, or contacted an epidemic disease, since this could require the Company and its labour suppliers to quarantine some, or all of these employees, and disinfect the works sites and facilities used for the Company’s operations. In addition, the Company’s revenue and profitability could also be reduced to the extent if any natural disaster, health epidemic or other virus outbreak harms the overall economy in the PRC. These adverse impacts, if materialize and persist for a substantial period, may significantly and adversely affect the Company’s business operation and financial performance.
Risks Related to Doing Business in China
Certain judgments obtained against us by our officers and directors may not be enforceable
We are a Wyoming corporation but most of our assets are and will be located outside of the United States. Almost all our operations are conducted in the PRC. In addition, all our officers and directors are the nationals and residents of a country other than the United States. Almost all of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process within the United States upon them. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us and our officers and directors, since he or she is not a resident in the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the PRC or other jurisdictions would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts.
Introduction of new laws or changes to existing laws by the PRC government may adversely affect our business.
The PRC legal system is a codified legal system made up of written laws, regulations, circulars, administrative directives and internal guidelines. Unlike common law jurisdictions like the U.S., decided cases (which may be taken as reference) do not form part of the legal structure of the PRC and thus have no binding effect on subsequent cases with similar issues and fact patterns. Furthermore, in line with its transformation from a centrally planned economy to a freer market-oriented economy, the PRC government is still in the process of developing a comprehensive set of laws and regulations. As the legal system in the PRC is still evolving, laws and regulations or the interpretation of the same may be subject to further changes. Such changes, if implemented, may adversely affect our business operations and may reduce our profitability.
| 15 |
Uncertainties in the interpretation and enforcement of PRC laws and regulations could limit the legal protections available to you and us.
The PRC legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike the common law system, prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value.
Our PRC subsidiaries are foreign-invested enterprises and are subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign-invested enterprises as well as various Chinese laws and regulations generally applicable to companies incorporated in China. However, since these laws and regulations are relatively new and the PRC legal system continues to rapidly evolve, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involves uncertainties.
From time to time, we may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce our legal rights. However, 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 protection we enjoy than in more developed legal systems. Furthermore, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules, some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all, and which may have a retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of any of these policies and rules until sometime after the violation. Such uncertainties, including uncertainty over the scope and effect of our contractual, property (including intellectual property) and procedural rights, and any failure to respond to changes in the regulatory environment in China could materially and adversely affect our business and impede our ability to continue our operations.
Uncertainties exist with respect to the interpretation and implementation of the newly enacted PRC Foreign Investment Law and its implementing rules and how they may impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The MOFCOM published a discussion draft of the proposed PRC Foreign Investment Law in January 2015, or the 2015 Draft FIL, according to which, variable interest entities that are controlled via contractual arrangements would also be deemed as foreign-invested entities, if they are ultimately “controlled” by foreign investors. In March 2019, the PRC National People’s Congress promulgated the PRC Foreign Investment Law, and in December 2019, the State Council promulgated the Implementing Rules of PRC Foreign Investment Law, or the Implementing Rules, to further clarify and elaborate the relevant provisions of the PRC Foreign Investment Law. The PRC Foreign Investment Law and the Implementing Rules both became effective from January 1, 2020 and replaced the major previous laws and regulations governing foreign investments in the PRC. Pursuant to the PRC Foreign Investment Law, “foreign investments” refer to investment activities conducted by foreign investors (including foreign natural persons, foreign enterprises or other foreign organizations) directly or indirectly in the PRC, which include any of the following circumstances: (i) foreign investors setting up foreign-invested enterprises in the PRC solely or jointly with other investors, (ii) foreign investors obtaining shares, equity interests, property portions or other similar rights and interests of enterprises within the PRC, (iii) foreign investors investing in new projects in the PRC solely or jointly with other investors, and (iv) investment in other methods as specified in laws, administrative regulations, or as stipulated by the State Council. The PRC Foreign Investment Law and the Implementing Rules do not introduce the concept of “control” in determining whether a company would be considered as a foreign-invested enterprise, nor do they explicitly provide whether the VIE structure would be deemed as a method of foreign investment. However, the PRC Foreign Investment Law has a catch-all provision that includes into the definition of “foreign investments” made by foreign investors in China in other methods as specified in laws, administrative regulations, or as stipulated by the State Council, and as the PRC Foreign Investment Law and the Implementing Rules are newly adopted and relevant government authorities may promulgate more laws, regulations or rules on the interpretation and implementation of the PRC Foreign Investment Law, the possibility cannot be ruled out that the concept of “control” as stated in the 2015 Draft FIL may be embodied in, or the VIE structure may be deemed as a method of foreign investment by, any of such future laws, regulations and rules. Our current corporate structure does not contain any VIE structures in the PRC and neither we nor any of our subsidiaries have any current intention establishing any VIEs in the PRC in the future. As of the date of this prospectus, substantially all of our business is conducted by our PRC Subsidiaries, primarily including Shenzhen Zhongyun Communication Technology Co., Ltd.
Pursuant to the FIL, the State Council shall promulgate or approve a list of special administrative measures for access of foreign investments, which is referred to as “the Negative List.” The FIL grants treatment to foreign investors and their investments at the market access stage which is no less favorable than that given to domestic investors and their investments, except for the investments of foreign investors in industries deemed to be either “restricted” or “prohibited” on the Negative List. The FIL provides that foreign investors shall not invest in the “prohibited” industries on the Negative List and shall meet such requirements as stipulated by the Negative List for making investment in “restricted” industries on the Negative List. Accordingly, the National Development and Reform Commission, or the NDRC, and the Ministry of Commerce promulgated the Negative List (2021), which took effect on January 1, 2022, and the NDRC and the Ministry of Commerce promulgated the Encouraged Industry Catalogue for Foreign Investment (2022 version), or the 2022 Encouraged Industry Catalogue, which took effect on January 1, 2023. Industries not listed on the Negative List (2021) are generally open for foreign investments unless specifically restricted by other PRC laws. We are engaged in the trading of intelligent products and the construction of telecommunication engineering services not including the restricted category “telecommunication value-added service”. Since our current business is not on the 2021 Negative List, to the best of our knowledge, it will not create any material adverse effect to our Company’s business.
On September 6, 2024, the Chinese government released the latest “Special Administrative Measures (Negative List) for Foreign Investment Access (2024 Edition)”, which will take effect on November 1, 2024. The new Negative list has been reduced from 31 items to 29 items, and some specific restrictions in the manufacturing field have been removed including the deletion of the requirement that “publication printing must be controlled by Chinese parties” and the deletion of prohibiting foreign investment in the production of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces processing technology and products with confidential prescriptions of proprietary Chinese medicines. This marks the complete removal of restrictions on foreign investment access in the manufacturing field. Our current and planned business is neither on the 2021 Negative List Edition nor on the 2024 Edition. Thus, to the best of our knowledge, we believe the 2024 Negative List will not create any material adverse effect to the Company’s business.
If future laws, administrative regulations or provisions mandate further actions to be taken by companies with respect to existing structure or we expand our business activities, we may face substantial uncertainties as to whether we can complete such actions in a timely manner, or at all. Failure to take timely and appropriate measures to cope with any of these or similar regulatory compliance challenges could materially and adversely affect our current corporate structure, business, financial condition and results of operations.

China’s political climate and economic conditions, as well as changes in government policies, laws and regulations which may be quick with little advance notice, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our principal executive offices are located in China and our sole executive officer and director is a resident of and is physically located in and has significant ties to China. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are subject, to a significant extent, to economic, political and legal developments in China. For example, as a result of recent proposed changes in the cybersecurity regulations in China that would require certain Chinese technology firms to undergo a cybersecurity review before being allowed to list on foreign exchanges, this may have the effect of further narrowing the list of potential businesses in China’s consumer, technology and mobility sectors that we intend to focus on for our business combination or the ability of the combined entity to list in the United States.
China’s 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 PRC economy has experienced significant growth in the past two to three decades, growth has been uneven, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. Demand for target services and products depends, in large part, on economic conditions in China. Any slowdown in China’s economic growth may cause our potential customers to delay or cancel their plans to purchase our services and products, which in turn could reduce our net revenues.
Although China’s economy has been transitioning from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy since the late 1970s, the PRC government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry development by imposing industrial policies. The PRC government also exercises significant control over China’s economic growth through allocating resources, controlling the incurrence and payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies. Changes in any of these policies, laws and regulations may be quick with little advance notice and could adversely affect the economy in China and could have a material adverse effect on our business and the value of our common stock.
The PRC government has implemented various measures to encourage foreign investment and sustainable economic growth and to guide the allocation of financial and other resources. However, we cannot assure you that the PRC government will not repeal or alter these measures or introduce new measures that will have a negative effect on us, or more specifically, we cannot assure you that the PRC government will not initiate possible governmental actions or scrutiny to us, which could substantially affect our operation and the value of our common stock may depreciate quickly. China’s social and political conditions may change and become unstable. Any sudden changes to China’s political system or the occurrence of widespread social unrest could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
American investors may have difficulty enforcing judgments against our Company and Officers.
We are a Wyoming corporation and most of our assets are and will be located outside of the United States. Almost all of our operations will be conducted in China. In addition, our officers and directors are nationals and residents of a country other than the United States. All of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon them. It may also be difficult to enforce court judgments on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against our Company and our officer and director, since he is not a resident in the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of Hong Kong or other Asian countries would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts.
Any failure or perceived failure by our PRC subsidiaries to comply with the Anti-Monopoly Guidelines for Internet Platforms Economy Sector and other PRC anti-monopoly laws and regulations may result in governmental investigations or enforcement actions, litigation or claims against us and could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The PRC anti-monopoly enforcement agencies have strengthened enforcement under the PRC Anti-Monopoly Law in the recent years. On December 28, 2018, the SAMR issued the Notice on Anti-monopoly Enforcement Authorization, pursuant to which its province-level branches are authorized to conduct anti-monopoly enforcement within their respective jurisdictions. On September 11, 2020, the Anti-Monopoly Commission of the State Council issued Anti-monopoly Compliance Guideline for Operators, which requires operators to establish anti-monopoly compliance management systems under the PRC Anti-Monopoly Law to manage anti-monopoly compliance risks. On February 7, 2021, the Anti-Monopoly Commission of the State Council published Anti-Monopoly Guidelines for the Internet Platform Economy Sector that specified circumstances under which an activity of an internet platform will be identified as monopolistic act as well as concentration filing procedures for business operators. According to the PRC Anti-Monopoly Law, if a business operator carries out a concentration in violation of the law, the relevant authority shall order the business operator to terminate the concentration, dispose of the shares or assets or transfer the business within a specified time limit, or take other measures to restore the pre-concentration status, and impose a fine of up to RMB500,000. On March 12, 2021, the SAMR published several administrative penalty cases in connection with concentration of business operators that violated PRC Anti-Monopoly Law in the internet sector.
On October 23, 2021, the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress issued a discussion draft of the amended Anti-Monopoly Law, which proposes to increase the fines for illegal concentration of business operators to “no more than ten percent of its last year’s sales revenue if the concentration of business operator has or may have an effect of excluding or limiting competition; or a fine of up to RMB5 million if the concentration of business operator does not have an effect of excluding or limiting competition.” The draft also proposes for the relevant authority to investigate transaction where there is evidence that the concentration has or may have the effect of eliminating or restricting competition, even if such concentration does not reach the filing threshold. On December 24, 2021, nine government agencies, including the NDRC, jointly issued the Opinions on Promoting the Healthy and Sustainable Development of Platform Economy, which provides that, among others, monopolistic agreements, abuse of dominant market position and illegal concentration of business operators in the field of platform economy will be strictly investigated and punished in accordance with the relevant laws.
At the present time, we have a relatively small-scale supply chain platform operations based on our market share in our product markets and other factors. We are not an operator with a dominant market position, and our operating activity cannot constitute an anti-monopoly behavior that abuses our dominant market position. We have not entered into monopoly agreements prohibited by the Anti-Monopoly Law with competing business operators. As of the date of the prospectus, we have not received a notification from the anti-monopoly regulatory authority requiring us to file the concentration of undertakings or received any related administrative penalties. We believe that we are in compliance with the currently effective PRC anti-monopoly laws in all material aspects. Nevertheless, if the PRC regulatory authorities identify any of our activities as monopolistic under the PRC Anti-Monopoly Law or the Anti-Monopoly Guidelines for the Internet Platform Economy Sector, we may be subject to investigations and administrative penalties, and therefore materially and adversely affect our financial conditions, operations and business prospects. If we are required to take any rectifying or remedial measures or are subject to any penalties, our reputation and business operations may be materially and adversely affected.

The Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations in accordance with laws and regulations, or may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our securities.
The Chinese government has significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business and may intervene or influence our operations as the government deems appropriate to further regulatory, political and societal goals. Recent regulatory developments in China may subject us to additional regulatory review, including the cybersecurity review, data security assessment and disclosure requirement, expose us to government interference, or otherwise restrict our ability to offer securities and raise capitals outside China, all of which could materially and adversely affect the business of us and the value of our securities. We cannot rule out the possibility that it will in the future release regulations or policies regarding our industry that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, the PRC government has recently indicated an intent to exert more oversight and control over securities offerings and other capital markets activities that are conducted overseas and foreign investment in China-based companies like us. Any such intervention in or influence on our business operations or action to exert more oversight and control over securities offerings and other capital markets activities, once taken by the PRC government, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and the value of our securities, or 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 in extreme cases, become worthless.
Any actions by the Chinese government to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers 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
The Chinese government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. Our ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations. The central or local governments of these jurisdictions may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations. Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof.
As such, our business in China is subject to various government and regulatory interferences. The Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations in accordance with laws and regulations, or may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of the securities we are registering for sale. Further, any actions by the Chinese government to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers 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. We could be subject to regulation by various political and regulatory entities, including various local and municipal agencies and government sub-divisions. The Company may incur increased costs necessary to comply with existing and newly adopted laws and regulations or penalties for any failure to comply. Our operations could be adversely affected, directly or indirectly, by existing or future laws and regulations relating to its business or industry, which could result in a material change in our operation and the value of our securities.
Furthermore, given recent statements by the Chinese government indicating an intent to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas, although we are currently not required to obtain permission from any of the PRC federal or local government and has not received any denial to list on the U.S. exchange, it is uncertain when and whether we will be required to obtain permission from the PRC government to list and trade on U.S. exchanges in the future, and even when such permission is obtained, whether it will be denied or rescinded, which could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer our securities to investors and cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or be worthless.
Governmental control of currency conversion may affect the value of your investment.
The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of the RMB into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of China. We receive substantially all of our revenues in RMB. Under our current corporate structure, our income will currently only be derived from dividend payments from our PRC subsidiaries. Shortages in the availability of foreign currency may restrict the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to remit sufficient foreign currency to pay dividends or other payments to us, or otherwise satisfy their foreign currency denominated obligations. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from trade-related transactions can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from SAFE by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, approval from appropriate government authorities is required where RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of China to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of loans denominated in foreign currencies. The PRC government may also at its discretion restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions. If the foreign exchange control system prevents us from obtaining sufficient foreign currency to satisfy our currency demands, we may not be able to pay dividends in foreign currencies to our security-holders.
Failure to comply with the Individual Foreign Exchange Rules relating to the overseas direct investment or the engagement in the issuance or trading of securities overseas by our PRC resident stockholders may subject such stockholders to fines or other liabilities.
Our ability to conduct foreign exchange activities in the PRC may be subject to the interpretation and enforcement of the Implementation Rules of the Administrative Measures for Individual Foreign Exchange promulgated by SAFE in January 2007 (as amended and supplemented, the “Individual Foreign Exchange Rules”). Under the Individual Foreign Exchange Rules, any PRC individual seeking to make a direct investment overseas or engage in the issuance or trading of negotiable securities or derivatives overseas must make the appropriate registrations in accordance with SAFE provisions. PRC individuals who fail to make such registrations may be subject to warnings, fines or other liabilities.
SAFE promulgated the Notice on Relevant Issues Relating to Domestic Resident’s Investment and Financing and Roundtrip Investment through Special Purpose Vehicles, or Notice 37, in July 2014 that requires PRC residents or entities to register with SAFE or its local branch in connection with their establishment or control of an offshore entity established for the purpose of overseas investment or financing. In addition, such PRC residents or entities must update their SAFE registrations when the offshore special purpose vehicle undergoes material events relating to material change of capitalization or structure of the PRC resident itself (such as capital increase, capital reduction, share transfer or exchange, merger or spin off).
We may not be fully informed of the identities of all our beneficial owners who are PRC residents. For example, because the investment in or trading of our shares will happen in an overseas public or secondary market where shares are often held with brokers in brokerage accounts, it is unlikely that we will know the identity of all of our beneficial owners who are PRC residents. Furthermore, we have no control over any of our future beneficial owners and we cannot assure you that such PRC residents will be able to complete the necessary approval and registration procedures required by the Individual Foreign Exchange Rules.
To our knowledge, our beneficial owners, who are PRC residents, have not completed the Notice 37 registration. And we cannot guarantee that all or any of the shareholders will complete the Notice 37 registration prior to the closing of this Offering. Failure by any such shareholders or beneficial owners to comply with Notice 37 could restrict our overseas or cross-border investment activities, limit our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to make distributions or pay dividends or affect our ownership structure, which could adversely affect our business and prospects. In addition, the PRC resident shareholders who fail to complete Notice 37 registration may subject to fines less than RMB50,000.
| 18 |
As these foreign exchange and outbound investment related regulations are relatively new and their interpretation and implementation has been constantly evolving, it is unclear how these regulations, and any future regulation concerning offshore or cross-border investments and transactions, will be interpreted, amended and implemented by the relevant government authorities.
It is uncertain how the Individual Foreign Exchange Rules will be interpreted or enforced and whether such interpretation or enforcement will affect our ability to conduct foreign exchange transactions. Because of this uncertainty, we cannot be sure whether the failure by any of our PRC resident stockholders to make the required registration will subject our PRC subsidiaries to fines or legal sanctions on their operations, delay or restriction on repatriation of proceeds of our securities offerings into the PRC, restriction on remittance of dividends or other punitive actions that would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Under the Enterprise Income Tax Law, we may be classified as a “Resident Enterprise” of China. Such classification will likely result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC stockholders.
China passed an Enterprise Income Tax Law (the “EIT Law”), as most recently amended and effective on December 29, 2018, and the related Implementation Regulations, as amended and effective on April 23 2019. Under the EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China with “de facto management bodies” within China is considered a “resident enterprise,” meaning that it can be treated in a manner similar to a Chinese enterprise for enterprise income tax purposes. The implementing rules of the EIT Law define de facto management as “substantial and overall management and control over the production and operations, personnel, accounting, and properties” of the enterprise.
On April 22, 2009, the State Administration of Taxation of China issued the Notice Concerning Relevant Issues Regarding Cognizance of Chinese Investment Controlled Enterprises Incorporated Offshore as Resident Enterprises pursuant to Criteria of de facto Management Bodies, or the Notice, further interpreting the application of the EIT Law and its implementation to offshore entities controlled by a Chinese enterprise or Company. Pursuant to the Notice, an enterprise incorporated in an offshore jurisdiction and controlled by a Chinese enterprise or Company will be classified as a “non-domestically incorporated resident enterprise” if (i) its senior management in charge of daily operations reside or perform their duties mainly in China; (ii) its financial or personnel decisions are made or approved by bodies or persons in China; (iii) its substantial assets and properties, accounting books, corporate stamps, board and stockholder minutes are kept in China; and (iv) at least half of its directors with voting rights or senior management are often resident in China. A resident enterprise would be subject to an enterprise income tax rate of 25% on its worldwide income and must pay a withholding tax at a rate of 10% when paying dividends to its non-PRC stockholders.
Because we have limited capital, we may need to raise additional capital in the future by issuing debt or equity securities, the terms of which may dilute our current investors and/or reduce or limit their liquidation or other rights.
We may require additional capital to acquire a business. We may not be able to obtain additional capital when required. Future business development activities, as well as administrative expenses such as salaries, insurance, general overhead, legal and compliance expenses, and accounting expenses will require a substantial amount of additional capital.
The terms of securities we issue in future capital raising transactions may be more favorable to new investors, and may include liquidation preferences, superior voting rights or the issuance of other derivative securities, which could have a further dilutive effect on or subordinate the rights of our current investors. Any additional capital raised through the sale of equity securities will likely dilute the ownership percentage of our shareholders. Additionally, any debt securities we issue would likely create a liquidation preference superior that of our current investors and, if convertible into shares of Common Stock, would also pose the risk of dilution.
| 19 |
We may be unable to obtain necessary financing if and when required.
Our ability to obtain financing, if and when necessary, may be impaired by such factors as the capital markets (both in general and in the particular industry or industries in which we may choose to operate), our limited operating history and current lack of operations, the national and global economies, and the condition of the market for microcap securities. Further, economic downturns such as the current global depression caused by the COVID-19 pandemic may increase our requirements for capital, particularly if such economic downturn persists for an extended period of time or after we have acquired an operating entity, and may limit or hinder our ability to obtain the funding we require. If the amount of capital we are able to raise from financing activities, together with any revenues we may generate from future operations, is not sufficient to satisfy our capital needs, we may be required to discontinue our development or implementation of a business plan, cancel our search for business opportunities, cease our operations, divest our assets at unattractive prices or obtain financing on unattractive terms. If any of the foregoing should happen, our shareholders could lose some or all of their investment.
Because we are dependent upon Shuhua Liu, our Chief Executive Officer and director to manage and oversee our Company, the loss of her could adversely affect our plan and results of operations.
We currently have director and officer, Shuhua Liu, who manages the Company and is presently evaluating a viable plan for our future operations. We will rely solely on her judgment in connection with selecting a target company and the terms and structure of any resulting business combination. The loss of our Chief Executive Officer, could delay or prevent the achievement of our business objectives, which could have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations and financial position.
Further, because Mr. Shuhua Liu serves as Chief Executive Officer and sole director and also holds a controlling interest in the Company’s Common Stock, our other shareholders will have limited ability to influence the Company’s direction or management.
In addition, although not likely, the officers and directors of an acquisition candidate may resign upon completion of a combination with their business. The departure of a target’s key personnel could negatively impact the operations and prospects of our post-combination business. The role of a target’s key personnel upon the completion of the transaction cannot be ascertained at this time. Although we contemplate that certain or all members of a target’s management team may remain associated with the target following a change of control thereof, there can be no assurance that all of such target’s management team will decide to remain in place. The loss of key personnel, either before or after a business combination and including management of either us or a combined entity could negatively impact the operations and profitability of our business.
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
There is a limited market for our common stock, which may make it difficult for holders of our common stock to sell their stock.
Our common stock currently trades on the OTC Pink Markets under the symbol “AOAO”. Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to the liquidity of any markets that may develop for our common stock, the ability of holders of our common stock to sell our common stock, or the prices at which holders may be able to sell our common stock. Further, many brokerage firms will not process transactions involving low price stocks, especially those that come within the definition of a “penny stock.” If we cease to be quoted, holders of our common stock may find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock, and the market value of our common stock would likely decline.
| 20 |
The trading price of our Common Stock is likely to be volatile, which could result in substantial losses to investors.
The trading price of our common stock is likely to be volatile and could fluctuate widely due to factors beyond our control. This may happen because of broad market and industry factors, including the performance and fluctuation of the market prices of other companies with business operations located mainly in China that have listed their securities in the United States. In addition to market and industry factors, the price and trading volume for our common stock may be highly volatile for factors specific to our own operations, including the following:
| ● | variations in our revenues, earnings and cash flow; | |
| ● | announcements of new investments, acquisitions, strategic partnerships or joint ventures by us or our competitors; | |
| ● | announcements of new offerings, solutions and expansions by us or our competitors; | |
| ● | changes in financial estimates by securities analysts; | |
| ● | detrimental adverse publicity about us, our brand, our services or our industry; | |
| ● | additions or departures of key personnel; | |
| ● | release of lock-up or other transfer restrictions on our outstanding equity securities or sales of additional equity securities; and | |
| ● | potential litigation or regulatory investigations. |
Any of these factors may result in large and sudden changes in the volume and price at which our common stock will trade.
In the past, shareholders of public companies have often brought securities class action suits against those companies following periods of instability in the market price of their securities. If we were involved in a class action suit, it could divert a significant amount of our management’s attention and other resources from our business and operations and require us to incur significant expenses to defend the suit, which could harm our results of operations. Any such class action suit, whether or not successful, could harm our reputation and restrict our ability to raise capital in the future. In addition, if a claim is successfully made against us, we may be required to pay significant damages, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
We are subject to be the penny stock rules which will make shares of our common stock more difficult to sell.
We are subject now and may continue to be subject in the future, to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules if our shares of common stock sell below $5.00 per share. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00. The penny stock rules require broker-dealers to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to completing the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation.
| 21 |
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction, the broker dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. The penny stock rules are burdensome and may reduce purchases of any offerings and reduce the trading activity for shares of our common stock. As long as our shares of common stock are subject to the penny stock rules, the holders of such shares of common stock may find it more difficult to sell their securities.
If we become directly subject to the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity involving U.S. listed Chinese companies, we may have to expend significant resources to investigate and resolve the matter which could harm our business, operations and reputations, which could result in a loss of your investment in our common stock.
U.S. public companies that have substantially all of their operations in China, have been the subject of intense scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity by investors, financial commentators and regulatory agencies, such as the SEC. Much of the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity has centered around financial and accounting irregularities, a lack of effective internal controls over financial accounting, inadequate corporate governance policies or a lack of adherence thereto and, in some cases, allegations of fraud. As a result of the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity, the publicly traded stock of many U.S. listed Chinese companies has sharply decreased in value and, in some cases, has become virtually worthless. Many of these companies are now subject to shareholder lawsuits and SEC enforcement actions and are conducting internal and external investigations into the allegations. It is not clear what effect this sector-wide scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity will have on our business. If we become the subject of any unfavorable allegations, whether such allegations are proven to be true or untrue, we will have to expend significant resources to investigate such allegations and/or defend the Company. This situation may be a major distraction to our management. If such allegations are not proven to be groundless, our company and business operations will be severely hampered and your investment in our shares could be rendered worthless.
We currently intend to retain most, if not all, of our available funds and any future earnings to fund the development and growth of our business. As a result, we do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Therefore, you should not rely on an investment in our common stock as a source for any future dividend income.
Our board of directors has complete discretion as to whether to distribute dividends., Even if our board of directors decides to declare and pay dividends, the timing, amount and form of future dividends, if any, will depend on our future results of operations and cash flow, our capital requirements and surplus, the amount of distributions, if any, received by us from our subsidiaries, our financial condition, contractual restrictions and other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors. Accordingly, the return on your investment in our common stock will likely depend entirely upon any future price appreciation of our common stock. There is no guarantee that our common stock will appreciate in value, or even maintain the price at which you purchased the common stock. You may not realize a return on your investment in our common stock and you may even lose your entire investment in our common stock.
If relations between the United States and China worsen, our stock price may decrease and we may have difficulty accessing the U.S. capital markets.
At various times during recent years, the United States and China have had disagreements over political and economic issues. Controversies may arise in the future between these two countries. Any political or trade conflicts between the United States and China could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and our ability to access U.S. capital markets.
You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions in China against us or our management named in the prospectus based on foreign laws.
We are a company incorporated under the laws of the United States and we conduct substantially all of our operations in China. In addition, all our senior executive officers reside within China for a significant portion of the time and most are PRC nationals. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process upon us or those persons inside mainland China. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments obtained in U.S. courts based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us and our officers and directors as none of them currently resides in the United States or has substantial assets located in the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the PRC would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts against us or such persons predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state.
| 22 |
The recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under the PRC Civil Procedures Law. PRC courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedures Law based either on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on principles of reciprocity between jurisdictions. China does not have any treaties or other forms of written arrangement with the United States that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, the PRC courts will not enforce a foreign judgment against us or our directors and officers if they decide that the judgment violates the basic principles of PRC laws or national sovereignty, security or public interest. As a result, it is uncertain whether and on what basis a PRC court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the United States.
We will not receive any proceeds from the sales of shares of our common stock by the selling shareholders.
We will pay for the expenses of this offering, except that the selling shareholders will pay any broker discounts or commissions or equivalent expenses and expenses of selling shareholder’s legal counsel applicable to any sale of the shares.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The selling shareholders may sell some or all of their shares from time to time in the principal market on which the stock is traded at the fixed price of $1.000. The offering price bears no relationship to our assets, book value, earnings or any other customary investment criteria. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling shareholders. The shares may be sold directly by the selling shareholders to or through brokers or dealers, directly to purchasers or through agents designated from time to time.

On October 8, 2019, Haining Zhang, filed a petition with the District Court, Clark County, Nevada, and the Court ordered that Mr. Zhang was appointed as receiver for the Company. Consequently, Mr. Zhang is granted the authority to conduct business of the Company pursuant to N.R.S. 78.630. Haining Zhang was appointed the sole officer and director at that time.
On October 15, 2019, the Company issued 100,000,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $0.001, to Mr. Zhang, our CEO, for $100,000, $99,950 of which was subsequently expensed in its operation by December 31, 2019, and the balance was expensed in its operation in 2020.
On February 8, 2021, the previously issued 100,000,000 shares of common stock were canceled in connection with changes in the Company’s strategic direction.
On March 30, 2021, 100,000,000 shares of common stock, under the control of Haining Zhang, were transferred to Zhuo Wang. As a result, Haining Zhang resigned as the sole officer and director, and Shuhua Liu was appointed as the sole director and CEO of the Company.

Prior to the merger, Shuhua Liu and her spuse directly and indirectly obtained the total 49.65% controlled of AOAO, and 50% indirectly controlled of Zhongyun BVI by Zhongyun Global International Group Limited. Shuhua Liu is the sole director of AOAO and Zhongyun BVI. As AOAO and Zhongyun BV were under common control at the time of the share exchange, the transaction is accounted for as a combination of entities under common control in a manner similar to the pooling-of-interests method of accounting. Following the Merger, Shuhua Liu and her spouse directly and indirectly obtained the total 49.77% controlled of AOAO. Immediately after completion of such share exchange, the Company has a total of 76,809,533 issued and outstanding shares of common stock, with authorized common shares of 450,000,000.

The Company’s Revenue Model
The company’s revenue model for construction services operates primarily through structured project engagements and long-term service agreements, ensuring a balance between short-term project income and ongoing service-based revenue. The Company’s revenue model for wholesaling intelligent products is primarily through sales contracts. The Company will recognize its sales revenue upon the products received by its customers, where the ownership of the products has been transferred from the Company to the customers.
Project-Based Contracts: Revenue is generated through customized contracts for specific infrastructure projects, such as building base stations, laying fiber-optic cables, and constructing data centers. These contracts are typically milestone-driven, meaning the company is compensated at various stages of project progress—planning, installation, testing, and final delivery.
Ongoing Service Agreements: The company extends its revenue potential by offering comprehensive after-sales services and maintenance contracts. The service agreements cover essential functions like network optimization, equipment maintenance, and emergency response, ensuring continuous customer engagement.
Product Sales: A significant portion of revenue is derived from hardware and intelligent communication device sales through large-scale contracts. Payments are structured with down payments, followed by full settlement upon delivery, ensuring upfront capital and secured revenue after project completion.
Integrated Solutions: The company enhances value by packaging hardware sales with long-term service agreements, creating comprehensive client solutions that drive both immediate sales and sustained service revenue, strengthening customer loyalty.
Future Plans

Domestically, the company will strengthen its presence in key cities within the Greater Bay Area, including Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Zhuhai, and Zhongshan. The focus will align with national initiatives, particularly in the development of 5G networks and expanding fiber-optic infrastructure to meet the increasing demands for high-speed connectivity.
On the international front, the company plans to extend its operations under China’s “Belt and Road” initiative, targeting strategic markets across Asia, Europe, and other regions. This will help position the company as a leading player in the global telecommunications and digital services industry.
The company is also committed to the growing demand for smart city infrastructure. It plans to deploy advanced telecommunications networks and contribute to the development of smarter, more connected urban environments.
In addition, the company will continue to expand its project management offerings by enhancing its platform with big data, and cloud computing capabilities to better serve the construction and project management industries. The ongoing investment in research and development will fuel innovation across telecommunications infrastructure and smart city solutions, ensuring the company remains at the forefront of industry advancements and competitive growth.

Net Revenues
Net revenues totaled $23,549,144 for the year ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $17,054,504, or 263%, as compared to the revenue for the year ended March 31, 2023. The increase in net revenues was mainly due to a significantly increase in sales of intelligent products $17,580,582 from the third parties, coverage of 75% of total net revenues for the year ended March 31, 2024. The sales of intelligent products were not steady and seasonal, mainly affected by the education procurement policy, which has two bidding and procurement processes with local education bureau per year. One is every March, the other is every October. Our customers will take part in the bidding and procurement processes. Additionally, there is a timing gap between when the company makes downpayments to suppliers and when it receives downpayments from customers. Therefore, there are known uncertainty whether the company could maintain such increment in revenue.
Looking ahead, our intelligent products rely on network connectivity via a dedicated app, which is supported by our 5G infrastructure project (our telecommunication project). As we continue expanding our telecommunications capabilities, we anticipate potential synergies between our intelligent product offerings and 5G infrastructure, which could create new revenue streams and business opportunities in the future.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Going concern.
The Company had incurred a net loss of $860,310 and the operating cash outflows of $1,333,237 for the six months ended September 30, 2024. The Company had incurred a net loss of $590,469 for the three months ended September 30, 2024. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. The Company’s financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Management estimates that the current funds on hand (means cash at bank and on hand) will be sufficient to continue operations through the next 12 months. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon (1) there was $6.25 million overdue one year (aging over 360 days) as of September 30, 2024, the company will accelerate the collection of accounts receivable, $2.5 million will be received as of June 30, 2025, and $2.79 million to be collected in the next 12 months that based on the agreed extra payment term on the ongoing contracts. From October 2024 to January 2025, the Company has collected $1.15 million out of the $2.5 million, and regards of well-known reputation of customers, we assume that we will be able to successfully collect such amounts within the extra payment term; (2) the continued financial support from its stockholders or its ability to obtain external financing, the company has only obtained verbal funding commitments from stockholders, which are non-binding and may not be fulfilled; (3) further to make the cost controlling; and (4) implement management’s business plan to extend its operations and generate sufficient revenues to meet its obligations. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to increase sales volume and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be neither any assurances to that effect, nor any assurance that the Company will be successful in securing sufficient funds to sustain the operations. In long-term, the continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon (i) further implement management’s business plan to extend its operations and generate sufficient revenues to meet its obligations; (ii) Shorten customer payment terms and extend supplier payment terms; and (iii) maintain to obtain the revolving credit lines and loans with lower interest from the bank, the company has obtained the revolving credit lines amounting to $1,648,076 (equivalent to RMB11,807,142.84), which bears interest rate from 3% to 16.7% for 12 months. The Company will obtain more lower revolving credit lines to replace the higher interest rate bank loan and the collection of accounts receivable to settle the revolving credit lines and loans in the future.
Management believes that the actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plan provides the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.
Based on our current operating plan, we believe that the revolving loans, together with our existing cash at bank and on hand and anticipated cash flow from operations, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital requirements and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months following the date of September 30, 2024.

Telecom Infrastructure Engineering in China
China’s telecommunications infrastructure sector is one of the most dynamic and rapidly expanding industries in the world, fueled primarily by the accelerated deployment of 5G networks, broadband expansion, and increasing investments in digital infrastructure. As China pushes towards digital transformation, telecom infrastructure engineering plays a critical role in the construction and maintenance of the systems that support high-speed internet, mobile communications, and data services across the country.
The telecommunications infrastructure market in China was valued at approximately $31.62 billion in 2024 (https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/china-telecom-network-infrastructure-market-evaluation-ioxnf/), reflecting its vast scale and robust growth trajectory. This figure is expected to grow significantly, to a projected strong compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.49% over the period from 2024 to 2031 driven by China’s ambitious plans to expand its 5G network and fiber-optic infrastructure.
The telecommunications infrastructure market in the world has experienced substantial growth in recent years. It is projected to increase from $94.1 billion in 2023 to $100.52 billion in 2024, achieving a CAGR of 6.8%. In 2028, it is expected to continue its strong growth trajectory, reaching $130.72 billion with the same CAGR. (https://www.thebusinessresearchcompany.com/report/telecom-network-infrastructure-global-market-report). The anticipated growth during this forecast period is driven by the deployment and expansion of 5G networks, the rise of edge computing, increased Internet of Things connectivity, growing concerns over network security, further cloud and data center expansion, advancements in artificial intelligence, and ongoing network optimization efforts.
The deployment of 5G networks has been particularly transformative, with China leading globally in both the number of 5G connections and base stations. By 2025, China is projected to have more than 3 million 5G base stations, reflecting its commitment to creating a globally competitive digital ecosystem. (https://techblog.comsoc.org/2021/11/17/china-plans-to-triple-the-number-of-5g-base-stations-by-end-of-2025/#:~:text=China%20aims%20to%20have%20about%203.64%20million,5G%20base%20stations%20for%20every%2010%2C000%20people). This expansion, which also includes a strong focus on fiber-optic networks, is essential to support the country’s digital infrastructure and the growing demand for high-speed connectivity across all sectors.
Key Growth Drivers
| ● | 5G Deployment |
The telecom infrastructure market in China is experiencing robust growth, primarily driven by the rapid deployment of 5G technology. The Chinese government has prioritized this rollout as part of its national strategy to enhance digital infrastructure, leading to significant investments in building millions of 5G base stations. The substantial investments made by major telecom operators such as China Mobile, China Telecom, and China Unicom have been pivotal in this transformation, facilitating the rapid adoption of 5G services and creating a competitive landscape that encourages further infrastructure development.
| ● | Broadband and Fiber-Optic Network Expansion |
In addition to 5G, China continues to expand its fiber-optic broadband networks to provide high-speed internet access to more remote and rural areas. This push aligns with the government’s digital inclusion initiatives, which are key to improving regional economic opportunities and enhancing public services such as education, healthcare, and governance. The fiber-optic network requires extensive engineering expertise for laying cables, building data centers, and ensuring seamless connectivity across vast distances.
| ● | Data Centers |
With the rise of cloud computing and increasing internet usage, there is growing demand for data centers across China. The surge in mobile data traffic due to the proliferation of smartphones and connected devices is another significant market driver. As of early 2021, there were approximately 1.61 billion mobile connections in China, indicating a penetration rate exceeding the country’s population (https://www.worlddata.info/asia/china/telecommunication.php). This massive increase in mobile connectivity has led to a corresponding rise in data consumption, with mobile data traffic reportedly increasing by 40% during the COVID-19 pandemic. The emphasis on improving network capacity and reliability is essential for meeting consumer expectations and supporting the growing number of Internet of Things.
Telecom infrastructure engineering is critical to designing, constructing, and maintaining these data centers, which house servers that support everything from consumer internet applications to large-scale enterprise systems. As companies such as Huawei, Alibaba, and Tencent continue to expand their cloud services, the demand for infrastructure engineering related to cooling, power, network security, and server management increases.
| ● | Digital Transformation and Smart Cities |
The push toward digital China, including the development of smart cities, serves as another critical factor propelling the telecom infrastructure market within China. The Chinese government aims to integrate advanced technologies like cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and big data into everyday business operations and public services. This digital transformation necessitates robust telecom infrastructure to support new digital services and applications. The smart cities require robust telecom networks that can support the Internet of Things, autonomous transportation systems, and smart energy grids, which presents a growing need for engineering services that specialize in the integration of telecommunications technologies with urban infrastructure.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), as amended, which generally requires lessees to recognize operating and financing lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets on the balance sheet and to provide enhanced disclosures surrounding the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leasing arrangements. The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2019 and elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allows to carry forward our historical lease classification, and initial direct costs for any leases that exist prior to adoption of the new standard. The Company will also keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off the balance sheet and recognize the associated lease payments in the consolidated statements of income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company estimates approximately $247,369 would be recognized as total right-of-use assets and total lease liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet as of June 1, 2019. Other than additional disclosure, the Company does not expect the new standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Off Balance Sheet Commitments and Arrangements
We have not entered into any financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. In addition, we have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as shareholder’s equity or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or product development services with us.

| ● | in the over-the-counter market; | |
| ● | in the transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market; | |

| 38 |
Brokers, dealers, underwriters, or agents participating in the distribution of the shares as agents may receive compensation in the form of commissions, discounts, or concessions from the selling shareholders and/or purchasers of the common stock for whom the broker-dealers may act as agent. The compensation paid to a particular broker-dealer may be less than or in excess of customary commissions.
The selling shareholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the common stock may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling shareholders who are “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.
In connection with the sale of our common stock, the selling shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling shareholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver shares to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell such shares.
Neither we nor the selling shareholders can presently estimate the amount of compensation that any agent will receive. We know of no existing arrangements between the selling shareholders, any other shareholder, broker, dealer, underwriter, or agent relating to the sale or distribution of the shares offered by this prospectus. At the time a particular offer of shares is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed that will set forth the names of any agents, underwriters, or dealers and any compensation from the selling shareholder, and any other required information.
We will pay all of the expenses incident to the registration, offering, and sale of the shares to the public other than commissions or discounts of underwriters, broker-dealers, or agents. Any commissions, discounts or other fees payable to brokers-dealers in connection with any sale of the shares of common stock will be borne by the selling shareholders, the purchasers participating in such transaction, or both.
We have agreed to indemnify those selling shareholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus up to an amount not to exceed the net proceeds of the Offering.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers, and controlling persons, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore, unenforceable.
We have advised the selling shareholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling shareholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling shareholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling shareholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
We and the selling shareholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations under it, including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5.
This offering will terminate on the date that all shares offered by this prospectus have been sold by the selling shareholders.
Under the securities laws of some states, the shares may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the shares may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.

Penny Stock Rules
Our shares of common stock are subject to the “penny stock” rules of the Exchange Act. In general terms, “penny stock” is defined as any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. The rules provide that any equity security is considered to be a penny stock unless that security is registered and traded on a national securities exchange meeting specified criteria set by the SEC, authorized for quotation from the NASDAQ stock market, issued by a registered investment company, and excluded from the definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per share), or based on the issuer’s net tangible assets or revenues. In the last case, the issuer’s net tangible assets must exceed $3,000,000 if in continuous operation for at least three years or $5,000,000 if in operation for less than three years, or the issuer’s average revenues for each of the past three years must exceed $6,000,000.
Trading in shares of penny stock is subject to additional sales practice requirements for broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Accredited investors, in general, include individuals with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 (or $300,000 together with their spouse), and certain institutional investors. For transactions covered by these rules, broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of the security and must have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, the rules require the delivery, prior to the first transaction, of a risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock. A broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, and current quotations for the security. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stocks. These rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to trade or maintain a market in our common stock, to the extent it is penny stock, and may affect the ability of stockholders to sell their shares.
The following description of our capital stock is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, each as amended and restated, which have been filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
| F-1 |
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of
Alpha One, Inc.
OPINION ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Alpha One, Inc. (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Alpha One, Inc as of March 31, 2024 and 2023 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT ABOUT THE COMPANY’S ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company’s operating losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
BASIS FOR OPINION
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
CRITICAL AUDIT MATTERS
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Going concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. For the years ended on March 31, 2024 and 2023, the net cash used cash in operating activities was $694,052 and $2,128,379 respectively. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. The Company’s financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Management estimates that the current funds on hand (means cash at bank and on hand) will be sufficient to continue operations through the next 12 months. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon (1) there was $3.52 million overdue one year (aging over 360 days) as of March 31, 2024, the Company will accelerate the collection of accounts receivable, $2.5 million will be received as of June 30, 2025 and $2.79 million to be collected in the next 12 months that based on the agreed extra payment term on the ongoing contracts. From October 2024 to January 2025, the Company has collected $1.15 million out of the $2.5 million, and regards of well-known reputation of customers, we assume that we will be able to successfully collect such amounts within the extra payment term; (2) the continued financial support from its stockholders or its ability to obtain external financing, the company has only obtained verbal funding commitments from stockholders, which are non-binding and may not be fulfilled; (3) further to make the cost controlling; and (4) implement management’s business plan to extend its operations and generate sufficient revenues to meet its obligations. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to increase sales volume and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be neither any assurances to that effect, nor any assurance that the Company will be successful in securing sufficient funds to sustain the operations. In long-term, the continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon (i) further implement management’s business plan to extend its operations and generate sufficient revenues to meet its obligations; (ii) Shorten customer payment terms and extend supplier payment terms; and (iii) maintain to obtain the revolving credit lines and loans with lower interest from the bank.
Management believes that the actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plan provides the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant accounting estimates include certain assumptions related to going concern, allowance of doubtful accounts, allowance of deferred tax asset and uncertain tax position, implicit interest rate of operating leases, useful lives and impairment of long-lived assets, and impairment of goodwill. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Foreign currency translation and re-measurement
The Company’s reporting currency is the United States Dollars (“US$”) and the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been expressed in US$. In addition, the Company’s operating subsidiary maintains its books and records in their respective local currency, which consists of the Renminbi (“RMB”). The determination of the respective functional currency is based on the criteria set out by ASC 830, Foreign Currency Mattters, (“ASC 830”).
Transactions denominated in currencies other than in the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items that are measured in term of historical cost in foreign currency are re-measured using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).
The financial statements of the Company’s entities of which the functional currency is not US$ are translated from their respective functional currency into US$. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into US$ at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Equity accounts other than earning generated in current period are translated into US$ at the appropriate historical rates. Income and expense items are translated into US$ using the periodic average exchange rates. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded in other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss), and the accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments are presented as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity if any.
Translation of amounts from the local currencies of the Company into US$ has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods:
As
of and for the years | ||||||||
| 2024 | 2023 | |||||||
| Period-end RMB:US$1 exchange rate | 0.138498 | 0.145611 | ||||||
| Period-average RMB:US$1 exchange rate | 0.139526 | 0.145951 | ||||||
| F-9 |
The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars at the rates used in translation.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and have original maturities of less than three months. The Company’s primary bank deposits are located in the PRC.
Accounts receivable and allowance for credit losses
Accounts receivable represents the amounts that the Company has an unconditional right to consideration and is recorded net of allowance for credit losses. The Company estimated allowance for credit losses to reserve for potentially uncollectible receivable amounts periodically, considering factors in assessing the collectability of its accounts receivable, such as historical distribution of the age of the amount due, payment history, creditworthiness, forward-looking factor, historical collections data of. The credit term for the customers of telecommunication engineering services was 90 working days after the quality acceptance checked and the customers of sales of intelligent products was 10 days payment after the contract takes effect (signed and chopped by both parties). The customers, to assess the credit risk characteristics. If there is strong evidence indicating that the accounts receivable is likely to be unrecoverable, the Company also makes specific allowance in the period in which a loss is determined to be probable. Accounts receivable are considered impaired and written-off when it is probable that all contractual payments due will not be collected after all collection efforts have been exhausted.
Property and equipment, net
Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of the property and equipment are as follows:
| Categories | Estimated useful life | |
| Office equipment | 3-5 years | |
| Office furniture | 5 years | |
| Leasehold improvement | 10 years | |
| Communication equipment | 3 years |
The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expenses as incurred, whereas significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Intangible assets, net
Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually and are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are impaired if their estimated fair values are less than their carrying values.
Finite-lived intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment if any. The finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which are the period over which the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the future cash flows of the Company. These intangible assets are tested for impairment at the time of a triggering event, if one were to occur. Finite-lived intangible assets may be impaired when the estimated undiscounted future cash flows generated from the assets are less than their carrying amounts.
The Company may rely on a qualitative assessment when performing impairment test for its intangible asset. Otherwise, the impairment evaluation is performed at the lowest level of identifiable cash flows independent of other assets.
The Company’s intangible assets mainly represented project management system purchased by the Company. The project management system is classified as finite-lived intangible assets and amortized over its useful life of 10 years.
Operating leases
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Lease (FASB ASC Topic 842) to account its lease on March 1, 2022.
At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange of a consideration. To assess whether a contract is or contains a lease, the Company assess whether the contract involves the use of an identified asset, whether it has the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from the use of the asset and whether it has the right to control the use of the asset.
The Company classifies a lease as a financing lease at lease commencement when the lease meets any one of the criteria:
| a. | The lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee by the end of the lease term. |
| b. | The lease grants the lessee an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. |
| c. | The lease term is for a major part of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset. |
| d. | The present value of the sum of the lease payments and any residual value guaranteed by the lessee that is not already reflected in the lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all of the fair value of the underlying asset. |
| e. | The underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative use to the Company at the end of the lease term. |
When none of the criteria are met, the Company classifies a lease as an operating lease.
| F-10 |
The right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. The Company recognizes operating lease expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are short-term lease and not recognized as right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company recognizes lease expense for short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The right-of-use of asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and less any lease incentive received.
Operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the lease payments not yet paid, discounted using the average borrowing rate of the Company’s outstanding loans.
Lease term includes rent holidays and options to extend or terminate the lease when the Company is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The lease assets for operating leases consist of the amount of the measurement of the lease liabilities and any prepaid lease payments. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term by adding interest expense determined using the effective interest method to the amortization of the right-of-use assets. Interest expense is determined using the effective interest method. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
The Company reviews the impairment of its right-of-use assets consistent with the approach applied for its other long-lived assets. The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on its ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected undiscounted future pre-tax cash flows of the related operations. The Company has elected to include the carrying amount of operating lease liabilities in any tested asset Company and include the associated operating lease payments in the undiscounted future pre-tax cash flows.
Revenue recognition
The Company follows the guidance of ASC 606, revenue from contracts with customers is recognized using the following five steps:
| 1. | Identify the contract(s) with a customer; | |
| 2. | Identify the performance obligations in the contract; | |
| 3. | Determine the transaction price; | |
| 4. | Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and | |
| 5. | Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. |
Under Topic 606, revenues are recognized when the promised products have been confirmed of delivery or services have been transferred to the customers in amounts that reflect the consideration the customer expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. The Company presents value added taxes (“VAT”) as reductions of revenues. The Company recognizes revenues net of value added taxes (“VAT”) and relevant charges.
Telecommunication Construction Services
The Company recognizes revenue from provision of Telecommunication Construction Services over time because the Company’s construction activities create or enhance assets controlled by the customers. The Company adopts the input method to measure performance progress and revenue is recognized based on the proportion of the actual costs incurred relative to the estimated total costs. Where the performance progress cannot be determined reasonably, revenue is recognized based on the amount of cost that is expected to be compensated based on the cost already incurred, until the performance progress can be reasonably determined.
Intelligent products
The Company recognizes the net product revenues from the product sales model on a gross basis as the Company is acting as a principal in these transactions and is responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified goods. The Company generates revenue primarily from the sales of intelligent products directly to the customers, with majority of sales transactions were conducted offline. The Company recognizes product revenue at a point in time when the control of the products has been transferred to customers. The transfer of control is considered complete when products have been picked up by or delivered to our customers. The Company accounts for shipping and handling fees as a fulfillment cost.
| F-11 |
The following table provides information about disaggregated revenue based on revenue by product types:
| For the years ended March 31, | ||||||||
| 2024 | 2023 | |||||||
| Telecommunication engineering services | $ | 5,968,562 | $ | 6,494,640 | ||||
| Intelligent products | 17,580,582 | - | ||||||
| Total | $ | 23,549,144 | $ | 6,494,640 | ||||
Contract liabilities
A contract liability is recognized when the customer pays consideration before the Company recognizes the related revenue. A contract liability would also be recognized if the Company has an unconditional right to receive consideration before the Company recognizes the related revenue. In such cases, a corresponding receivable would also be recognized. As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had contract liabilities of $8,112 and $339,796, respectively.
Cost of revenues
Amounts recorded as cost of revenues relate to direct expenses incurred in order to generate revenue. Cost of revenues consists primarily of (i) purchase of goods, (ii) costs of telecommunication construction services and (iii) taxes and surcharges.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salary and welfare for general and administrative personnel, rental expenses, entertainment expenses, freight, general office expenses and professional service fees.
Research and development expenses
Research and development expenses consist primarily of payroll and related expenses for research and development employees involved in designing, developing and maintaining telecommunication information system, and technology infrastructure costs. The Company expects the research and development expenses to increase in absolute amounts in the foreseeable future as the Company continues to invest in technology and innovation to expand the technology capabilities.
Value-added taxes
Revenue is recognized net of value-added taxes (“VAT”). The VAT is based on gross sales price and VAT rates applicable to the Company is 13%. Entities that are VAT general taxpayers are allowed to offset qualified input VAT paid to suppliers against their output VAT liabilities. Net VAT balance between input VAT and output VAT is recorded as VAT payable if output VAT is larger than input VAT and is recorded as VAT recoverable if input VAT is larger than output VAT. For entities that are qualified for VAT small taxpayers, entities are allowed to enjoy preferential tax rate from 3% to 1% for the period from January 1, 2022 to March 31, 2022 and preferential tax rate from 3% to 0% for the period from April 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. All of the VAT returns filed by the Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC, have been and remain subject to examination by the PRC tax authorities for five years from the date of filing. VAT payables are included in accrued liabilities.
Income taxes
The Company followed the liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, or ASC 740. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the period in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company recorded a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rate is recognized in tax expense in the period that includes the enactment date of the change in tax rate.
The Company accounted for uncertainties in income taxes in accordance with ASC 740. Interest and penalties related to unrecognizable tax benefit recognized in accordance with ASC 740 are classified in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income as income tax expense.
Statutory reserves
Statutory reserves are referring to the amount appropriated from the net income in accordance with laws or regulations, which can be used to recover losses and increase capital, as approved, and are to be used to expand production or operations. PRC laws prescribe that an enterprise operating at a profit must appropriate and reserve, on an annual basis, an amount equal to 10% of its profit. Such an appropriation is necessary until the reserve reaches a maximum that is equal to 50% of the enterprise’s PRC registered capital. The Company had $162,784 and $33,675 to statutory reserves as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which were included in retained earnings and statutory reserves in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Earnings (loss) per share
The Company computes earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per share”. Basic EPS is measured as the income or loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options, and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e. those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.
Financial instruments
The Company accounts for financial instruments in accordance to ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” which requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company and ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” which defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for financial assets and liabilities, which primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventories, prepayments and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, income tax payable, customer advances, are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:
● Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
● Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
● Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
| F-12 |
Commitments and contingencies
Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.
Comprehensive income (loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income (loss) are required to be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company’s current component of other comprehensive income (loss) includes the foreign currency translation adjustment.
Segment reporting
The Company reports each material operating segment in accordance with ASC 280, “Segment Reporting”. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer. The Company has determined that it has only one operating segment.
Significant risk
Currency risk
Except for the expenses US$45,539 and US$16,503 for the year ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 respectively are in US$, other expenses derived from PRC subsidiary, and the expense transactions are denominated in RMB and US$97,535 liabilities and US$97,535 equity as of March 31, 2024 and US$51,996 liabilities and US$51,996 equity as of March 31, 2023 are in US$, other assets, liabilities and equity transactions are denominated in RMB. RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. In the PRC, certain foreign exchange transactions are required by law to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions at exchange rates set by the People’s Bank of China (“PBOC”). Remittances in currencies other than RMB by the Company in the PRC must be processed through the PBOC or other Company foreign exchange regulatory bodies which require certain supporting documentation in order to affect the remittance.
The Company maintains certain bank accounts in the PRC. On May 1, 2015, the PRC’s new Deposit Insurance Regulation came into effect, pursuant to which banking financial institutions, such as commercial banks, established in the PRC are required to purchase deposit insurance for deposits in RMB and in foreign currency placed with them. Such Deposit Insurance Regulation would not be effective in providing complete protection for the Company’s accounts, as its aggregate deposits are much higher than the compensation limit, which is RMB500,000 for one bank. However, the Company believes that the risk of failure of any of these Chinese banks is remote. Bank failure is uncommon in the PRC and the Company believes that those Chinese banks that hold the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are financially sound based on public available information.
Other than the deposit insurance mechanism in the PRC mentioned above, the Company’s bank accounts are not insured by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance or other insurance.
Concentration and credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to the concentration of credit risks consist of cash and short-term investments. The maximum exposures of such assets to credit risk are their carrying amounts as of the balance sheet dates. The Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions located in jurisdictions where the subsidiaries are located. The Company believes that no significant credit risk exists as these financial institutions have high credit quality.
The Company also exposures to credit risk associated with its trading and other activities is measured on an individual counterparty basis, as well as by Company of counterparties that share similar attributes. Concentrations of credit risk can be affected by changes in political, industry, or economic factors. To reduce the potential for risk concentration, the Company generally requires payment after delivery of the services within 90 to 120 days and advanced payment acquired before delivery of goods. Credit limits are established and exposure is monitored in light of changing counterparty and market conditions. For the year ended March 31, 2024, three customers accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenues which totaled of 68% revenues and 31% accounts receivable. For the year March 31, 2023, four customers accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenues which totaled of 88% revenues and 89% accounts receivable. For the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company had one supplier that accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total cost of revenues which totaled of 81% and nil% accounts payable. For the year ended March 31, 2023, the Company had three suppliers that accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total cost of revenues which totaled of 41% cost of revenues and 59% accounts payable.
Interest rate risk
Fluctuations in market interest rates may negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations. The Company is exposed to floating interest rate risk on cash deposit and floating rate borrowings, and the risks due to changes in interest rates is not material. The Company has not used any derivative financial instruments to manage our interest risk exposure.
Related party transaction
A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Company’s securities and their immediate families, (ii) the Company’s management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Going concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, the Company incurred a net loss of $860,310 and used cash in operating activities of $1,337,237. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company had incurred a net loss of $590,469. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. The Company’s financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Management estimates that the current funds on hand will be sufficient to continue operations through the next 12 months. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon (1) there was $6.25 million overdue one year (aging over 360 days) as of September 30, 2024, the Company will accelerate the collection of accounts receivable, $2.5 million will be received as of June 30, 2025, and $2.79 million to be collected in the next 12 months that based on the agreed extra payment term on the ongoing contracts. From October 2024 to January 2025, the Company has collected $1.15 million out of the $2.5 million, and regards of well-known reputation of customers, we assume that we will be able to successfully collect such amounts within the extra payment term; (2) the continued financial support from its stockholders or its ability to obtain external financing; (3) further to make the cost controlling; and (4) implement management’s business plan to extend its operations and generate sufficient revenues to meet its obligations. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to increase sales volume and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be neither any assurances to that effect, nor any assurance that the Company will be successful in securing sufficient funds to sustain the operations. In long-term, the continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon (i) further implement management’s business plan to extend its operations and generate sufficient revenues to meet its obligations; (ii) Shorten customer payment terms and extend supplier payment terms; and (iii) maintain to obtain the revolving credit lines and loans with lower interest from the bank.
Management believes that the actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plan provides the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

Foreign currency translation and re-measurement
The Company’s reporting currency is the United States Dollars (“US$”) and the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been expressed in US$. In addition, the Company’s operating subsidiary maintains its books and records in their respective local currency, which consists of the Renminbi (“RMB”). The determination of the respective functional currency is based on the criteria set out by ASC 830, Foreign Currency Mattters, (“ASC 830”).
Transactions denominated in currencies other than in the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items that are measured in term of historical cost in foreign currency are re-measured using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).
The financial statements of the Company’s entities of which the functional currency is not US$ are translated from their respective functional currency into US$. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into US$ at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Equity accounts other than earning generated in current period are translated into US$ at the appropriate historical rates. Income and expense items are translated into US$ using the periodic average exchange rates. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded in other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss), and the accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments are presented as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity if any.
Translation of amounts from the local currencies of the Company into US$ has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods:
As of and for the six months ended September 30, | ||||||||
| 2024 | 2023 | |||||||
| Period-end RMB:US$1 exchange rate | 0.142488 | 0.137447 | ||||||
| Period-average RMB:US$1 exchange rate | 0.138859 | 0.140513 | ||||||
The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars at the rates used in translation.
| F-25 |
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and have original maturities of less than three months. The Company’s primary bank deposits are located in the PRC.
Accounts receivable and allowance for credit losses
Accounts receivable represents the amounts that the Company has an unconditional right to consideration and is recorded net of allowance for credit losses. The Company estimated allowance for credit losses to reserve for potentially uncollectible receivable amounts periodically, considering factors in assessing the collectability of its accounts receivable, such as historical distribution of the age of the amount due, payment history, creditworthiness, forward-looking factor, historical collections data of. The credit term for the customers of telecommunication engineering services was 90 working days after the quality acceptance checked and the customers of sales of intelligent products was 10 days payment after the contract takes effect (signed and chopped by both parties). The customers, to assess the credit risk characteristics. If there is strong evidence indicating that the accounts receivable is likely to be unrecoverable, the Company also makes specific allowance in the period in which a loss is determined to be probable. Accounts receivable are considered impaired and written-off when it is probable that all contractual payments due will not be collected after all collection efforts have been exhausted.
Property and equipment, net
Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of the property and equipment are as follows:
| Categories | Estimated useful life | |
| Office equipment | 3-5 years | |
| Office furniture | 5 years | |
| Leasehold improvement | 10 years | |
| Communication equipment | 3 years |
The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expenses as incurred, whereas significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Intangible assets, net
Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually and are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are impaired if their estimated fair values are less than their carrying values.
Finite-lived intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment if any. The finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which are the period over which the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the future cash flows of the Company. These intangible assets are tested for impairment at the time of a triggering event, if one were to occur. Finite-lived intangible assets may be impaired when the estimated undiscounted future cash flows generated from the assets are less than their carrying amounts.
The Company may rely on a qualitative assessment when performing impairment test for its intangible asset. Otherwise, the impairment evaluation is performed at the lowest level of identifiable cash flows independent of other assets.
The Company’s intangible assets mainly represented project management system purchased by the Company. The project management system is classified as finite-lived intangible assets and amortized over its useful life of 10 years.
Operating leases
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Lease (FASB ASC Topic 842) to account its lease on March 1, 2022.
At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange of a consideration. To assess whether a contract is or contains a lease, the Company assess whether the contract involves the use of an identified asset, whether it has the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from the use of the asset and whether it has the right to control the use of the asset.
The Company classifies a lease as a financing lease at lease commencement when the lease meets any one of the criteria:
| f. | The lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee by the end of the lease term. |
| g. | The lease grants the lessee an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. |
| h. | The lease term is for a major part of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset. |
| i. | The present value of the sum of the lease payments and any residual value guaranteed by the lessee that is not already reflected in the lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all of the fair value of the underlying asset. |
| j. | The underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative use to the Company at the end of the lease term. |
When none of the criteria are met, the Company classifies a lease as an operating lease.
| F-26 |
The right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. The Company recognizes operating lease expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are short-term lease and not recognized as right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company recognizes lease expense for short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The right-of-use of asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and less any lease incentive received.
Operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the lease payments not yet paid, discounted using the average borrowing rate of the Company’s outstanding loans.
Lease term includes rent holidays and options to extend or terminate the lease when the Company is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The lease assets for operating leases consist of the amount of the measurement of the lease liabilities and any prepaid lease payments. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term by adding interest expense determined using the effective interest method to the amortization of the right-of-use assets. Interest expense is determined using the effective interest method. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
The Company reviews the impairment of its right-of-use assets consistent with the approach applied for its other long-lived assets. The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on its ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected undiscounted future pre-tax cash flows of the related operations. The Company has elected to include the carrying amount of operating lease liabilities in any tested asset Company and include the associated operating lease payments in the undiscounted future pre-tax cash flows.
Revenue recognition
The Company follows the guidance of ASC 606, revenue from contracts with customers is recognized using the following five steps:
| 1. | Identify the contract(s) with a customer; | |
| 2. | Identify the performance obligations in the contract; | |
| 3. | Determine the transaction price; | |
| 4. | Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and | |
| 5. | Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. |
Under Topic 606, revenues are recognized when the promised products have been confirmed of delivery or services have been transferred to the consumers in amounts that reflect the consideration the customer expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. The Company presents value added taxes (“VAT”) as reductions of revenues. The Company recognizes revenues net of value added taxes (“VAT”) and relevant charges.
Telecommunication Construction Services
The Company recognizes revenue from provision of Telecommunication Construction Services over time because the Company’s construction activities create or enhance assets controlled by the customers. The Company adopts the input method to measure performance progress and revenue is recognized based on the proportion of the actual costs incurred relative to the estimated total costs. Where the performance progress cannot be determined reasonably, revenue is recognized based on the amount of cost that is expected to be compensated based on the cost already incurred, until the performance progress can be reasonably determined.
Intelligent products
We recognize the net product revenues from the product sales model on a gross basis as the Company is acting as a principal in these transactions and is responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified goods. We generate revenue primarily from the sales of intelligent products directly to the customers, with majority of sales transactions were conducted offline. We recognize product revenue at a point in time when the control of the products has been transferred to customers. The transfer of control is considered complete when products have been picked up by or delivered to our customers. We account for shipping and handling fees as a fulfillment cost.
The following table provides information about disaggregated revenue based on revenue by product types:

Contract liabilities
Contract liabilities consist mainly of customer advances. On certain occasions, the Company may receive prepayments from downstream retailers or wholesales customers for wines, water and other products prior to them taking possession of the Company’s products. The Company records these receipts as customer advances until the control of the products has been transferred the customers. As of September 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company had contract liabilities of $8,345 and $8,112, respectively.
Cost of revenues
Amounts recorded as cost of revenues relate to direct expenses incurred in order to generate revenue. Cost of revenues consists primarily of (i) purchase of goods, (ii) costs of telecommunication construction services and (iii) taxes and surcharges.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salary and welfare for general and administrative personnel, rental expenses, entertainment expenses, freight, general office expenses and professional service fees.
Research and development expenses
Research and development expenses consist primarily of payroll and related expenses for research and development employees involved in designing, developing and maintaining telecommunication information system, and technology infrastructure costs. The Company expects the research and development expenses to increase in absolute amounts in the foreseeable future as the Company continues to invest in technology and innovation to expand our technology capabilities.
Value-added taxes
Revenue is recognized net of value-added taxes (“VAT”). The VAT is based on gross sales price and VAT rates applicable to the Company is 13%. Entities that are VAT general taxpayers are allowed to offset qualified input VAT paid to suppliers against their output VAT liabilities. Net VAT balance between input VAT and output VAT is recorded as VAT payable if output VAT is larger than input VAT and is recorded as VAT recoverable if input VAT is larger than output VAT. For entities that are qualified for VAT small taxpayers, entities are allowed to enjoy preferential tax rate from 3% to 1% for the period from January 1, 2022 to March 31, 2022 and preferential tax rate from 3% to 0% for the period from April 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. All of the VAT returns filed by the Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC, have been and remain subject to examination by the PRC tax authorities for five years from the date of filing. VAT payables are included in accrued liabilities.
Income taxes
The Company followed the liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, or ASC 740. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the period in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company recorded a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rate is recognized in tax expense in the period that includes the enactment date of the change in tax rate.
The Company accounted for uncertainties in income taxes in accordance with ASC 740. Interest and penalties related to unrecognizable tax benefit recognized in accordance with ASC 740 are classified in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income as income tax expense.
Statutory reserves
Statutory reserves are referring to the amount appropriated from the net income in accordance with laws or regulations, which can be used to recover losses and increase capital, as approved, and are to be used to expand production or operations. PRC laws prescribe that an enterprise operating at a profit must appropriate and reserve, on an annual basis, an amount equal to 10% of its profit. Such an appropriation is necessary until the reserve reaches a maximum that is equal to 50% of the enterprise’s PRC registered capital. The Company had $162,784 and $87,615 to statutory reserves as of September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which were included in accumulated deficit and statutory reserves in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Earnings (loss) per share
The Company computes earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per share”. Basic EPS is measured as the income or loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options, and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e. those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.
| F-28 |
Financial instruments
The Company accounts for financial instruments in accordance to ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” which requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company and ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” which defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for financial assets and liabilities, which primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventories, prepayments and other receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, income tax payable, customer advances, are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:
● Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
● Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
● Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
Commitments and contingencies
Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.
Comprehensive income (loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income (loss) are required to be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company’s current component of other comprehensive income (loss) includes the foreign currency translation adjustment.
Segment reporting
The Company reports each material operating segment in accordance with ASC 280, “Segment Reporting”. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer. The Company has determined that it has only one operating segment.
Significant risk
Currency risk
Except for the expenses US$115,800 and US$15,641 for the quarterly ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 respectively, are in US$, other expenses derived from PRC subsidiary, and the expense transactions are denominated in RMB and US$213,335 liabilities and US$213,335 equity as of September 30, 2024 and US$67,637 liabilities and US$67,637 equity as of September 30, 2023 are in US$, other assets, liabilities and equity transactions are denominated in RMB. RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. In the PRC, certain foreign exchange transactions are required by law to be transacted only by authorized financial institutions at exchange rates set by the People’s Bank of China (“PBOC”). Remittances in currencies other than RMB by the Company in the PRC must be processed through the PBOC or other Company foreign exchange regulatory bodies which require certain supporting documentation in order to affect the remittance.
The Company maintains certain bank accounts in the PRC. On May 1, 2015, the PRC’s new Deposit Insurance Regulation came into effect, pursuant to which banking financial institutions, such as commercial banks, established in the PRC are required to purchase deposit insurance for deposits in RMB and in foreign currency placed with them. Such Deposit Insurance Regulation would not be effective in providing complete protection for the Company’s accounts, as its aggregate deposits are much higher than the compensation limit, which is RMB500,000 for one bank. However, the Company believes that the risk of failure of any of these Chinese banks is remote. Bank failure is uncommon in the PRC and the Company believes that those Chinese banks that hold the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are financially sound based on public available information.
Other than the deposit insurance mechanism in the PRC mentioned above, the Company’s bank accounts are not insured by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance or other insurance.
| F-29 |
Concentration and credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to the concentration of credit risks consist of cash and short-term investments. The maximum exposures of such assets to credit risk are their carrying amounts as of the balance sheet dates. The Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions located in jurisdictions where the subsidiaries are located. The Company believes that no significant credit risk exists as these financial institutions have high credit quality.
The Company also exposures to credit risk associated with its trading and other activities is measured on an individual counterparty basis, as well as by Company of counterparties that share similar attributes. Concentrations of credit risk can be affected by changes in political, industry, or economic factors. To reduce the potential for risk concentration, the Company generally requires payment after delivery of the goods within 90 to 120 days. Credit limits are established and exposure is monitored in light of changing counterparty and market conditions. For the quarterly ended September 30, 2024, two customers accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenues which totaled of 92% revenues and 55% accounts receivable. For the quarterly ended September 30, 2023, three customers accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenues which totaled of 77% revenues and 38% accounts receivable. For the quarterly ended September 30, 2024, the Company had one supplier (a related party) that accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total cost of revenues, which totaled of 40% cost of revenue and 4% due to related parties. For the quarterly ended September 30, 2023, the Company had three suppliers that accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total cost of revenues which totaled of 54% cost of revenue and 53% accounts payable.
Interest rate risk
Fluctuations in market interest rates may negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations. The Company is exposed to floating interest rate risk on cash deposit and floating rate borrowings, and the risks due to changes in interest rates is not material. The Company has not used any derivative financial instruments to manage our interest risk exposure.
Related party transaction
A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Company’s securities and their immediate families, (ii) the Company’s management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.

In rendering the Opinion, I have reviewed such corporate records and other documents as I have deemed necessary regarding the filing of the Filed Documents.
