	1)	our operating subsidiary purchases raw materials and subcontracts production from third-party manufacturers for WIP. Once WIP is finished and delivered to the warehouse, our operating subsidiary oversights certain manual processes, such as welding and constructing in order to meet the specification of the purchase orders. The completion of the final products is contingent upon a rigorous quality inspection conducted by our operating subsidiary, ensuring they meet the highest standards.

	2)	our operating subsidiary purchases raw materials and subcontracts third party manufacturers to produce finished products. Our operating subsidiary will trace and observe each step of production undertaken by third-party manufacturers, with a primary focus on the final quality control step.

	●	Expand our customers base and strive for additional orders;

	●	Raise funds to support our operations and expand our capacities;

	●	Recruit talent to explore high technology (e.g., advanced technology in our industry, including, among other things, environmental friendly raw materials, etc.); and

	●	Provide outstanding product quality, customer service and rigid integrity in our business dealings.

	●	if we do not have or are unable to generate sufficient cash available to repay our secured debt obligations when they become due and payable, either upon maturity or in the event of a default, we may lose our rights to our assets, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition;

	●	many very large and well-funded companies have or are entering into various aspects of the automobile sealing products industry market that we are serving or that they are offering products and services that indirectly or directly compete with our proposed products and services. These factors could result in declining revenue, or inability to grow our business;

	●	a decline in general economic condition could lead to reduced consumer demand and could negatively impact our business operation and financial condition, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations;

	●	we rely substantially on our founder, Chief Executive Officer, President and Chairperson of the Board, Xingxiu Hua. We may be adversely affected if we lose her services or the services of other key personnel or are unable to attract and retain additional personnel;

	●	we have a high concentration of sales with two major customers, Shanghai Xinsen and Shanghai Huaxin, which is the related party of our founder, Chief Executive Officer, President and Chairperson of the Board, Xingxiu Hua, and contributed approximately 86% and 100% of our total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively;

	●	Previously, we have a high concentration of purchases of raw materials from one major vendor, Shanghai Haozong, which is the related party of one of our directors. 100% and 95% of our total purchases for the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, was from Shanghai Haozong; and currently, we have a high concentration of purchases of raw materials from Yongliansen.

	●	we have engaged, and are likely to continue to engage, in certain transactions with related parties. These transactions are not negotiated on an arms’ length basis;

	●	we are a holding company and will rely on dividends paid by our subsidiary for our cash needs. Any limitation on the ability of our subsidiary to make dividend payments to us, or any tax implications of making dividend payments to us, could limit our ability to pay our parent company expenses or pay dividends to holders of our common stock;

	●	Our business could be negatively affected by rising inflation and interest rates. See “Risk Factors - Our business could be negatively affected by rising inflation and interest rates.” on page 15.

	●	any disruption in the supply chain of raw materials and our products could adversely impact our ability to produce and deliver products;

	●	investors in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution in net tangible book value;

	●	we have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. Failure to maintain effective internal controls could cause our investors to lose confidence in us and adversely affect the market price of our common stock. If our internal controls are not effective, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud;

	●	our management will have broad discretion over the use of any net proceeds from this offering and you may not agree with how we use the proceeds, and the proceeds may not be invested successfully;

	●	we may issue preferred stock in different series with terms that could dilute the voting power or reduce the value of our common stock;

	●	the trading prices of our common stock could be volatile and could decline following this offering at a time when you want to sell your holdings;

	●	we currently do not intend to declare dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future and, as a result, your returns on your investment may depend solely on the appreciation of our common stock; and

	●	because we initially became a reporting company under the Exchange Act by means other than a traditional underwritten initial public offering, we may not be able to attract the attention of research analysts at major brokerage firms;

	●	if listed, we may not be able to satisfy the listing requirements of Nasdaq to maintain a listing of our common stock;

	●	we are an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting company” under the JOBS Act, and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies and smaller reporting companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors, and make it more difficult to raise capital as and when we need it; and

	●	the elimination of personal liability against our directors and officers under Nevada law and the existence of indemnification rights held by our directors, officers and employees may result in substantial expenses.

	●	being permitted to provide only two years of audited financial statements, in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements, with correspondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;

	●	not being required to comply with the requirement of auditor attestation of our internal controls over financial reporting;

	●	not being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements;

	●	A key pillar of our growth plan is to enhance product innovation and development, and expand new customers, allowing us to stay ahead in a rapidly evolving market and meet the emerging needs of our customers. We are committed to investing in research and development, which will drive the introduction of new products and improvements to existing ones.

	●	Another critical component of our strategy is geographic expansion. We aim to enter new international markets and increase our share in existing markets by leveraging our strong distribution networks and marketing strategies. This will not only diversify our customer base but also reduce our dependency on any single market.

	●	Additionally, we plan to pursue strategic partnerships and acquisitions in different countries (our first target is the U.S.), which will allow us to access new technologies, expand our product lines and enter new markets more rapidly than organic growth alone would permit.

	●	Finally, a focus on operational efficiency and cost management will ensure that we remain competitive and profitable, even as we invest in growth. By optimizing our operations and carefully managing expenses, we can reinvest savings into key growth areas.

	●	Expand our customers basis and strive for additional orders;

	●	Raise funds to support our operations and expand our capacities;

	●	Recruit talent to explore high technology (e.g., advanced technology in our industry, including, among other things, environmental friendly raw materials, etc.); and

	●	That we provide outstanding product quality, customer service and rigid integrity in our business dealings.
