EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This registration statement contains two prospectuses, as set forth below.

 

  · Public Offering Prospectus. A prospectus to be used for the public offering (the “Public Offering Prospectus”) of up to 2,170,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Tianci International, Inc. (the “Company”), with such shares to be sold in a firm commitment underwritten offering through the lead underwriter named on the cover page of the Public Offering Prospectus.
     
  · Resale Prospectus. A prospectus to be used for the resale by the selling stockholders (the “Selling Stockholders” set forth in the section of the resale prospectus (the “Resale Prospectus”) entitled “Selling Stockholders” of an aggregate of 3,260,000 shares of common stock.

 

The Resale Prospectus is substantively identical to the Public Offering Prospectus, except for the following principal points:

 

  · they contain different outside and inside front covers and back covers;
     
  · they contain different “Offering” sections in the “Prospectus Summary” section beginning on page 1;
     
  · they contain different “Use of Proceeds” sections on page 45;
     
  · the “Capitalization” and “Dilution” sections from the Public Offering Prospectus are deleted from the Resale Prospectus;
     
  · a “Selling Stockholders” section is included in the Resale Prospectus;
     
  · the “Underwriting” section from the Public Offering Prospectus is deleted from the Resale Prospectus and a “Selling Stockholder Plan of Distribution” is inserted in its place in the Resale Prospectus; and
     
  · the “Legal Matters” section in the Resale Prospectus on page R-18 deletes the reference to counsel for the lead underwriter.

 

The Company has included in this registration statement a set of alternate pages after the back cover page of the Public Offering Prospectus (the “Alternate Pages”) to reflect the foregoing differences in the Resale Prospectus as compared to the Public Offering Prospectus. The Public Offering Prospectus will exclude the Alternate Pages and will be used for public offering by the Company. The Resale Prospectus will be substantively identical to the Public Offering Prospectus except for the addition or substitution of the Alternate Pages, and such other changes as may be necessary to clarify references to the public offering or the resale offering and will be used for the resale offering by the Selling Stockholders.

THE INFORMATION IN THIS PROSPECTUS IS NOT COMPLETE AND MAY BE CHANGED.

SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED [●], 2024

 

PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

 

 

TIANCI INTERNATIONAL, INC.

 

2,170,000 shares of common stock

 

We are offering to sell 2,170,000 shares of our common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, in a firm commitment underwritten offering (the “Underwritten Offering”). We currently estimate that the public offering price will be between $4 and $5 per share.

 

Our common stock is currently traded on the OTC Pink Market under the symbol “CIIT.” On December 9, 2024, the last reported sale price for our common stock was $3.99 per share.

 

We have applied to list our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “CIIT”. No assurance can be given that our application will be approved or that the trading prices of our common stock on the OTC Pink Market will be indicative of the prices of our common stock if our common stock were traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If our application is not approved, the offering will not be completed. The offering (including both “Underwritten Offering” and “Resale Offering” as defined below) is contingent upon final approval of the listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

 

The offering price of our shares of common stock in the Underwritten Offering will be determined between the lead underwriter and us at the time of pricing, considering our historical performance and capital structure, prevailing market conditions, and overall assessment of our business, and may be at a discount to the current market price. Therefore, the recent market price of our common stock and the public offering price of the common stock used throughout this prospectus may not be indicative of the actual public offering price for the shares of common stock.

 

 

 

 ii 

 

 

INVESTING IN OUR COMMON STOCK IS SPECULATIVE AND INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. BEFORE MAKING ANY INVESTMENT DECISION, YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY REVIEW AND CONSIDER ALL THE INFORMATION IN THIS PROSPECTUS, INCLUDING THE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES DESCRIBED UNDER “RISK FACTORS” BEGINNING ON PAGE 17.

 

Tianci International, Inc. is a holding company incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada with operations conducted by our subsidiary based in Hong Kong. This is an offering of the common stock of the Nevada holding company, which does not conduct operations. You are not investing in Roshing International Co., Limited, the Hong Kong operating company, and may never hold equity in our Hong Kong operating subsidiary. Our structure involves unique risks to investors. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong.” Unless the context provides otherwise, references in this registration statement to “we,” “us,” “our company,” “our,” “the Company” and “Tianci” refers to Tianci International, Inc., “Tianci Seychelles” refers to Tianci Group Holding Limited, a limited company organized under the laws of Seychelles and a wholly owned subsidiary of Tianci, “RQS United” refers RQS United Group Limited, a company organized under the laws of the Republic of Seychelles and a wholly owned subsidiary of Tianci, “Roshing” refers to Roshing International Co., Limited, a company organized under the laws of Hong Kong. See “Commonly Used Defined Terms” on page viii herein. Investors would be purchasing interests in Tianci International, Inc., a Nevada company.

 

We have established controls and procedures for cash flows within our organization. Our management team manages and supervises the transfers of funds among Tianci and its subsidiaries under the Cash Flow Management Policy, an internal policy adopted by Tianci. Under this policy, Tianci focuses on revenue management, cost control, working capital management, implementing financial strategies, and fulfilling compliance reporting duties. Our management team closely monitors cash transfers within our organization and prepares monthly reports and annual budget plans. Each transfer of cash between Tianci and its subsidiaries is also subject to internal reporting and approval processes by reference to such policy. In addition, cash transfers between Tianci, its subsidiaries, or investors shall follow the applicable Hong Kong laws and regulations. See also “Prospectus Summary—Cash Flows through Our Organization.”

 

We and our subsidiaries face various legal and operational risks and uncertainties associated with being based, or having all our operations, in Hong Kong. The Directors confirm that, as of the date of this prospectus, we and our subsidiaries have received all requisite permissions or approvals from the Hong Kong authorities to operate its business in Hong Kong, including but not limited to obtaining a business registration certificate. However, we have been advised by our Hong Kong counsel that laws, regulations, or policies in Hong Kong could change in the future. If (i) we or our subsidiaries do not receive or maintain such permissions or approvals, (ii) we or our subsidiaries inadvertently conclude that any other permissions or approvals are not required, or (iii) applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change and we are required to obtain such permissions or approvals in the future, our operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected, and our ability to offer securities to investors could be significantly limited or completely hindered and the securities currently being offered may substantially decline in value and become worthless.

 

We and our subsidiaries are not based in Mainland China and do not have operations in Mainland China. Pursuant to the Basic Law, which is a national law of the PRC and the constitutional document for Hong Kong, national laws of the PRC shall not be applied in Hong Kong except for those listed in Annex III of the Basic Law and applied locally by promulgation or local legislation. The Basic Law expressly provides that the national laws of the PRC which may be listed in Annex III of the Basic Law shall be confined to those relating to defense and foreign affairs as well as other matters outside the autonomy of Hong Kong. The basic policies of the PRC regarding Hong Kong as a special administrative region of the PRC are reflected in the Basic Law, providing Hong Kong with a high degree of autonomy and executive, legislative and independent judicial powers, including that of final adjudication under the principle of “one country, two systems”.

 

 

 

 iii 

 

 

We are aware that recently, the PRC government initiated a series of regulatory actions and statements to regulate business operations in certain areas in Mainland China with little advance notice, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, enhancing supervision over Mainland Chinese companies listed overseas using a VIE structure, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding the efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. The laws and regulations of Mainland China do not currently have any material impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations and we are currently not subject to the PRC government’s direct influence or discretion over the manner in which we conduct our business activities outside of Mainland China. In the opinion of our PRC counsel, Jiangsu Junjin Law Firm, as of the date of this prospectus, on the basis that (i) we are a Nevada company and our only operating subsidiary, Roshing, is a Hong Kong company and is headquartered in Hong Kong; neither entity has operations in Mainland China; (ii) we do not, directly or indirectly, own or control any entity or subsidiary in Mainland China, nor are we controlled by any Mainland Chinese company or individual directly or indirectly; (iii) we currently do not have or intend to set up any subsidiary or enter into any contractual arrangements to establish a variable interest entity (“VIE”) with any entity in Mainland China; (iv) only few of Roshing’s customers are Mainland China residents, which contributed 5.2% and 0.4% of our revenue for the year ended July 31, 2023 and the year ended July 31, 2024, respectively and there are no customers from Mainland China for the three months ended October 31, 2024; (v) the majority of our senior managers in charge of the Company’s business operation and management are Hong Kong nationals and domiciled in Hong Kong; and (vi) all of Roshing’s employees are Hong Kong residents, we and our subsidiaries are not required to obtain any permissions or approvals from the Mainland China authorities for consummating this offering, including but not limited to the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”), to operate Roshing’s business or to list our securities on the U.S. exchanges and offer securities, including but not limited to issuing our common stock to foreign investors. We and our subsidiaries have not applied for or been denied of any such permissions or approvals from the Mainland China authorities. In addition, in the opinion of our PRC counsel, Jiangsu Junjin Law Firm, as of the date of this prospectus, we are not subject to the cybersecurity review by the Cyberspace Administration of China (“CAC”) over data security and our offering because we are a Nevada company and our only operating subsidiary is a Hong Kong company, neither entity has operations in Mainland China. In addition, we expect that we and our subsidiaries’ operations will continue to be conducted in Hong Kong, as is the case as of the date of this prospectus. Therefore, we believe that the likelihood that we and our subsidiaries will be required to obtain any permissions or approvals from the governmental authorities of Mainland China for our operations, or the listing of our securities on the U.S. exchanges and the offering of our securities in the future is very remote. Furthermore, due to long arm provisions under the current PRC laws and regulations, there remains regulatory uncertainty with respect to whether in the future we will be required to obtain approvals from the PRC authorities to operate our business or list on the U.S. exchanges and offer securities. If (i) we and our subsidiaries do not receive or maintain such permissions or approvals, should such approvals be required in the future by the PRC government, (ii) we and our subsidiaries inadvertently conclude that such permissions or approvals are not required, or (iii) applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change and we are required to obtain such permissions or approvals in the future, our operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected, and our ability to offer securities to investors could be significantly limited or completely hindered and the securities currently being offered may substantially decline in value and become worthless. In addition, (1) we do not have VIE structure and are not in an industry that is subject to foreign ownership limitations by China; and (2) neither us nor our only operating subsidiary, Roshing, has operations in Mainland China, see Risk Factors - While we believe that we and our subsidiaries are currently not required to obtain permissions or approvals from Mainland China authorities for our business operations and/or the listing and offering of our securities, and it is very unlikely that we or our subsidiaries will be required to do so in the future, we cannot assure you that we or our subsidiaries will be able to obtain all such permissions or approvals if they are nevertheless required.

 

Notwithstanding the above, we are aware that Mainland China government may intervene or influence the Hong Kong operations of an offshore holding company, such as those of our Hong Kong operating subsidiary, Roshing, at any time. These risks, together with uncertainties in the legal system of Mainland China and the interpretation and enforcement of Mainland China laws, regulations, and policies, could hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer the common stock, result in a material adverse change to Roshing’s business operations, and damage our reputation, which could cause the common stock to significantly decline in value or become worthless. For a detailed description of risks relating to the potential impact of Mainland China laws and regulations on Roshing’s business operations, see “Risk Factors — All our operations are in Hong Kong. However, due to the long arm provisions under the current Mainland China laws and regulations, the Chinese government may exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business and may intervene in or influence our operations at any time, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our common stock.

 

 

 

 

 iv 

 

 

If we decide to pay dividends on any of our common stock in the future, as a holding company, we will be dependent on receipt of funds from our subsidiaries. Under the current practice of the Inland Revenue Department of Hong Kong, no tax is payable in Hong Kong in respect of dividends paid by our Hong Kong subsidiary. There are no restrictions or limitation under the laws of Hong Kong imposed on the conversion of HKD into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of Hong Kong. See “Risk Factors - Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong - We will rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our Hong Kong subsidiary to fund any cash and financing requirements we may have. In the future, the PRC government may impose restrictions on our ability to transfer funds out of Hong Kong to fund operations or for other use outside of Hong Kong. Any limitation on the ability of our Hong Kong subsidiary to make payments to us could have a material adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business and might materially decrease the value of our common stock.” on page 30 of this prospectus for more information.

 

On December 16, 2021, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the “PCAOB”) issued a report on its determinations that it is unable to inspect or investigate completely PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in Mainland China and in Hong Kong because of positions taken by Mainland China and Hong Kong authorities in those jurisdictions. The PCAOB has made such designations as mandated under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, or the HFCA Act. Michael T. Studer CPA P.C. issued the audit report for our company for the year ended July 31, 2023. Michael T. Studer CPA P.C. serves as an auditor of companies that are traded publicly in the United States and is a firm registered with the PCAOB, is subject to laws in the United States, pursuant to which the PCAOB conducts regular inspections to assess its compliance with the applicable professional standards. Michael T. Studer CPA P.C. is headquartered in Freeport, New York and has been inspected by the PCAOB on a regular basis. On September 11, we dismissed Michael T. Studer CPA P.C. and engaged Bush & Associates CPA LLC as the Company’s independent public accounting firm for the year ended July 31, 2024. Bush & Associates CPA LLC, an independent registered public accounting firm, has its principal office in Henderson, Nevada and is subject to PCAOB inspections. If the PCAOB determines in the future that it cannot inspect or fully investigate our auditor at such future time, trading in our common stock would be prohibited under the HFCA Act. On August 26, 2022, the SEC issued a statement announcing that the PCAOB signed a Statement of Protocol (“SOP”) with the CSRC and the Ministry of Finance of the People’s Republic of China governing inspections and investigations of audit firms based in Mainland China and Hong Kong, jointly agreeing on the need for a framework. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB announced that it has secured complete access to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in Mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate the previous Determination Report to the contrary. On December 29, 2022, the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act was enacted, which amended the HFCA Act by requiring the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three, thus reducing the time before our securities may be prohibited from trading or delisted. The PCAOB is continuing to demand complete access in Mainland China and Hong Kong moving forward and is already making plans to resume regular inspections in early 2023 and beyond, as well as to continue pursuing ongoing investigations and initiate new investigations as needed. The PCAOB has indicated that it will act immediately to consider the need to issue new determinations with the HFCA Act if needed. If the PCAOB in the future again determines that it is unable to inspect and investigate completely auditors in Mainland China and Hong Kong, then the companies audited by those auditors would be subject to a trading prohibition on U.S. markets pursuant to the HFCA Act and/or the AHFCAA. These recent developments could also add uncertainties to this Underwritten Offering and we cannot assure you that the NASDAQ Capital Market or regulatory authorities would not apply additional or more stringent criteria to us after considering the effectiveness of our auditor’s audit procedures and quality control procedures, adequacy of personnel and training, or sufficiency of resources, geographic reach or experience as it relates to the audit of our financial statements. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong—Recent joint statement by the SEC and the PCAOB, proposed rule changes submitted by Nasdaq, and the newly enacted Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act all call for additional and more stringent criteria to be applied to emerging market companies upon assessing the qualification of their auditors, especially the non-U.S. auditors who are not inspected by the PCAOB. These developments could add uncertainties to the trading of our common stock on U.S. stock exchanges, including the possibility that our securities can be delisted if the PCAOB cannot inspect or fully investigate our auditor.”

 

For a detailed description of risks related to doing business in Hong Kong, see “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong.

 

Following the completion of this Underwritten Offering, our largest stockholder will beneficially own approximately 56.71% of the aggregate voting power of our outstanding common stock. As such, we will be deemed a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq listing standards. However, we do not intend to avail ourselves of the corporate governance exemptions afforded to a “controlled company” under the Nasdaq listing standards.

This Underwritten Offering is being conducted on a firm commitment basis. The lead underwriter is obligated to take and pay for all of the shares of common stock if any such shares of common stock are taken. We have granted the lead underwriter an option for a period of 45 days after the closing of the Underwritten Offering to purchase up to 325,500 shares of common stock, or 15% of the total shares of common stock to be offered by us pursuant to the Underwritten Offering (excluding common stock subject to this option), solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments, at the public offering price less the underwriting discounts. If the lead underwriter exercises the option in full, and assuming an offering price of $4.50 per share of common stock, which is the midpoint of the range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, the total gross proceeds to us, before underwriting discounts, commissions and expenses, will be approximately $11.2 million.

 

The lead underwriter expects to deliver the common stock against payment as set forth under “Underwriting,” on or about [●], 2024 through the book-entry facilities of The Depository Trust Company.

 

Neither the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission nor any other regulatory body has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

Overview

 

The Company’s primary line of business is global logistics. The Company through its subsidiary, Roshing, provides global logistics services, encompassing booking and the transportation arrangement and related logistics solutions. Roshing’s customized logistics solutions are tailored to meet the diverse needs of its customers.

 

As a logistics shipping operator, Roshing focuses on ocean freight forwarding services, including container shipping and bulk goods shipping service.

 

For the container shipping service, Roshing charters cargo space from shipping suppliers (such as shipowners, ship carrier or non-vessel operating common carriers) and then sub-charters that cargo space to its customers (cargo owners or cargo agents). For the bulk goods shipping service, Roshing issues fixture notes to customers, and then arranges the booking of ships, and signs chartering contracts with suppliers (such as shipowners). Roshing also tailors the selection of transport options, and arranges to transport the goods from the port of loading to the port of destination, so as to complete the performance of the contract.

 

Roshing currently does not own or operate any transportation assets. By leveraging our senior management’s expertise in the global logistics industry and adopting an asset-light strategy at the early stage, Roshing has seen a significant growth in logistics revenue since 2023. Shufang Gao, our Chief Executive Officer previously worked for a globally renowned shipping conglomerate, with over 20 years of management experience. His expertise spans shipping operation management, and logistics transportation. Leveraging this experience, he has provided the Company with the managerial framework to expand its global logistics business, as well as access to relevant customer and supplier resources in the shipping industry. Roshing’s business is primarily carried out in Hong Kong and other locations in the Asia-Pacific region, mainly in Japan, South Korea, Vietnam. Roshing’s logistics services also include the shipment of goods to African countries.

 

Roshing also generates revenue from the sale of electronic parts, and certain business and technical consulting services, independent from its global logistics business.

 

Our Services

 

Our operations conducted through Roshing include providing the following services to our customers.

 

Global Logistics Services

 

Our global logistics services provided through Roshing accounted for 96.6% of our revenue for the year ended July 31, 2024 and 92.6% for the three months ended October 31, 2024. These services encompass ocean shipping operations and related logistics solutions. Roshing focuses on ocean freight forwarding services, including container shipping and bulk goods shipping. Roshing customizes its logistics solutions to meet the diverse needs of our customers, including the optimization of shipping routes and the utilization of vessels with different tonnages.

 

Roshing derives revenues by entering into agreements that are generally comprised of a single performance obligation to ship freight either by container ships or by bulk cargo vessels. The most significant drivers of changes in Roshing’s global logistics service revenue and related transportation expenses are cargo volume, weight and sea route.

Our Service Process

 

Roshing has long-term and close relationships with ocean shipping suppliers. When a customer makes an inquiry to Roshing, it is usually able to offer competitive quotes and customize shipping solutions quickly.

 

Roshing begins by thoroughly evaluating the customer’s logistics needs, including the type of goods being shipped, the destination, and the required transportation time. Based on this information, Roshing designs an optimal transportation plan tailored to the customer’s specific requirements. This plan includes selecting the most efficient shipping routes, determining the appropriate container or vessel size and type, and considering any special handling or regulatory compliance requirements. Roshing then enters into a written contract with the customer for ocean shipping that can best meet the customer’s needs and aligns with the customer’s timeline and cargo specifications.

 

Roshing works with each customer to develop a cost-effective plan and service terms to meet the client’s needs. This involves detailed discussions to ensure that both parties have a clear understanding of expectations, costs, and responsibilities. Roshing will assign cargo space from an appropriate container ship or bulk cargo vessel based on the volume and weight of the shipment, minimize shipping costs, select the shortest route to save on freight, and choose the port closest to the customer’s destination.

 

Throughout the entire shipping process, Roshing maintains close oversight to ensure the safety and timely arrival of goods at the destination port. This involves real-time tracking and monitoring of the shipment, handling any unforeseen issues that may arise, and providing regular updates to the customer. By doing so, Roshing ensures that the goods are transported safely and arrive within the agreed timeframe, meeting all customer expectations.

 

We believe that Roshing stands out in the global logistics landscape because of its core strengths. Firstly, Roshing’s management’s extensive network and industry relationships empower us with access to a wide customer base, enabling tailored solutions for an array of logistics requirements. Additionally, Roshing’s collaboration with direct shipping suppliers ensures transparent service delivery. Moreover, Roshing’s expertise in route optimization enables us to efficiently manage logistics routes and secure favorable terms for its clients. These strengths collectively position Roshing as a competitive player in the industry.

Our Market Opportunities

 

The shipping industry holds significant potential, as indicated by BIMCO’s projections of substantial growth in ship supply and deliveries through 2025. With an expected increase of 9.1% in 2024 and 4.1% in 2025, and a fleet growth of 14.9% by 2025, we believe that the industry is poised for expansion. Cargo volumes are anticipated to grow steadily at a rate of 3-4% annually during this period. Moreover, the global economy is forecasted to experience moderate growth, with the IMF estimating rates of 3.1% in 2024 and 3.2% in 2025.

 

In the bulk cargo market, strong demand is being driven by factors such as heightened demand from China and export restrictions from Indonesia. We believe that the container shipping sector will also see opportunities. Disruptions like the 40-day blockade in the Red Sea in January 2024 have led to notable increases in freight rates. Additionally, ongoing container capacity shortages in China, which is expected to persist from the onset of the Chinese Spring Festival in 2024, could further elevate freight rates, offering potential benefits to shipowners.

Our Mission

 

Creating Value

 

As a global logistics enterprise, our primary mission is to provide customers with efficient, reliable, and safe shipping services that create value.

 

Promoting Global Trade & Connectivity

 

As an important component of global trade, we believe that global logistics enterprises have a mission to promote the development and connectivity of global trade and promote the prosperity and development of the global economy by facilitating cross-border operations for businesses. We are committed to cultivating a robust global network, both online and offline. The online part involves connecting with customers and suppliers through social media platforms. The offline part includes acquiring potential customers through exhibitions, recommendations, and other direct interactions.

 

Undertaking Social Responsibility

 

We believe that shipping companies also need to be socially responsible, pay attention to environmental protection, social welfare, promote sustainable development, and contribute to the prosperity and development of society.

 

We strive to optimize shipping routes and transportation plans to reduce energy consumption and emissions. Moreover, we intend to encourage our supply chain partners to adopt greener transportation and packaging methods, contributing to the sustainability of the entire industry. We also seek to actively participate in environmental projects and initiatives and collaborate with government and non-governmental organizations to focus on environmental protection.

Listing on OTC Pink Market

 

The Company’s common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink Market under the symbol “CIIT”. The quotations reported on the OTC Pink Market reflect inter-dealer prices without retail markup, markdown or commissions, and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

 

The Company’s common stock is thinly traded. The quoted bid and asked prices for the common stock vary significantly from week to week.

Listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market

 

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink Market under the symbol “CIIT.” In connection with this Underwritten Offering, we have applied to list our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “CIIT.” If our listing application is approved, we expect to list our common stock on Nasdaq in connection with the Underwritten Offering, at which point our common stock will cease to be traded on the OTC Pink Market. No assurance can be given that our listing application will be approved. Nasdaq listing requirements include, among other things, a stock price threshold. As a result, prior to effectiveness, we will need to take the necessary steps to meet Nasdaq listing requirements, which may include, but not be limited to, effectuating a reverse split of our common stock. If our application is not approved, the offering will not be completed. The offering is contingent upon final approval of the listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Corporate Information

 

We are incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada. Our principal executive offices are located at Unit B,10/F., Ritz Plaza, No.122 Austin Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, Hong Kong. Our telephone number is 852-22510781. Our website is www.tianci-ciit.com. Information contained in, or that can be accessed through, our website is not incorporated by reference into this registration statement, and you should not consider information on our website to be part of this registration statement. Our agent for service of process in the United States is Northwest Registered Agent, LLC.

 

Information Regarding our Capitalization

 

As of October 31, 2024 and the date of this prospectus, we had 14,781,803 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Additional information regarding our issued and outstanding securities may be found under “Description of Capital Stock.

 

Unless otherwise specifically stated, information throughout this prospectus does not assume the exercise of outstanding options or warrants to purchase shares of our common stock.

 

Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company

 

We are a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and have elected to take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosure available for smaller reporting companies. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the end of the fiscal year in which (1) we have a public common equity float of more than $250 million, or (2) we have annual revenues for the most recently completed fiscal year of more than $100 million and a public common equity float or public float of more than $700 million. We also would not be eligible for status as a smaller reporting company if we become an investment company, an asset-backed issuer or a majority-owned subsidiary of a parent company that is not a smaller reporting company.

 

We have elected to take advantage of certain of the reduced disclosure obligations in the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in future filings. As a result, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different from what you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.

 

Implications of Being a Controlled Company

 

Shufang Gao, our Chief Executive Officer, has voting control over approximately 62.11% of the aggregate voting power of the Company. Therefore, we currently meet the definition of a “controlled company” under the corporate governance standards for Nasdaq listed companies and for so long as we remain a controlled company under this definition, we are eligible to utilize certain exemptions from the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq. Upon the closing of this Underwritten Offering, Shufang Gao will own approximately 56.71% of the voting power of our outstanding voting stock.

 

As long as Shufang Gao owns at least 50% of the voting power of our company, we will be a “controlled company” as defined under the Nasdaq rules.

 

For so long as we are a controlled company under that definition, we are permitted to rely on certain exemptions from corporate governance rules, including:

 

  · an exemption from the rule that a majority of our Board must be independent directors;
     
  · an exemption from the rule that the compensation of our chief executive officer must be determined or recommended solely by independent directors; and
     
  · an exemption from the rule that our director nominees must be selected or recommended solely by independent directors.

 

Although we do not intend to rely on the “controlled company” exemption under Nasdaq listing rules, we could elect to rely on this exemption in the future. If we elect to rely on the “controlled company” exemption, a majority of the members of our Board might not be independent directors and our nominating and corporate governance and compensation committees might not consist entirely of independent directors.

 

As a result, you will not have the same protection afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to these corporate governance requirements.

Cash Flows through Our Organization

 

We are a holding company without operations of its own. We conduct our all operations through our Hong Kong subsidiary, Roshing. As a result, our ability to pay dividends depends upon dividends paid by Roshing. If our existing subsidiaries or any newly formed ones incur debt on their own behalf in the future, the instruments governing their debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends to Tianci. Under the current practice of the Inland Revenue Department of Hong Kong, no tax is payable in Hong Kong in respect of dividends paid by Roshing. The Mainland China laws and regulations do not currently have any material impact on transfers of cash from Roshing to Tianci or from Tianci to Roshing. The statutory reserve funds and the discretionary funds are not distributable as cash dividends. See “Regulations related to Hong Kong Taxation -Tax on dividends” on page 84.

 

We have established controls and procedures for cash flows within our organizations. Our management team is the special task force that manages and supervises the transfers of funds among Tianci and its subsidiaries under the Cash Flow Management Policy, an internal policy adopted by Tianci. Under this policy, Tianci focuses on revenue management, cost control, working capital management, implementing financial strategies, and fulfilling compliance reporting duties. Our management team closely monitors and manages cash transfers within our organization by preparing monthly reports and annual budget plans. Each transfer of cash between Tianci, and a subsidiary is also subject to internal report and approval process by reference to such policy. Each transfer of cash between Tianci, RQS Capital, and a subsidiary or branch is also subject to an internal report and approval process by reference to such policy. In addition, cash transfers between Tianci, its subsidiaries, or investors shall follow the applicable Hong Kong laws and regulations.

 

We believe that we and our subsidiaries are currently not required to obtain permissions or approvals from Mainland China authorities for our business operations and/or the listing and offering of our securities.

 

In the opinion of our PRC counsel, Jiangsu Junjin Law Firm, as of the date of this prospectus, on the basis that (i) we are a Nevada company and our only operating subsidiary, Roshing, is a Hong Kong company and is headquartered in Hong Kong, neither entity has operations in Mainland China; (ii) we do not, directly or indirectly, own or control any entity or subsidiary in Mainland China, nor are us controlled by any Mainland Chinese company or individual directly or indirectly; (iii) we currently do not have or intend to set up any subsidiary or enter into any contractual arrangements to establish a VIE structure with any entity in Mainland China; (iv) only few of Roshing’s customers are Mainland China residents, which contributed 5.2% and 0.4% of our revenue for the year ended July 31, 2023 and the year ended July 31, 2024, respectively and there are no customers from Mainland China for the three months ended October 31, 2024, (v) the majority of our senior managers in charge of the Company’s business operation and management are Hong Kong nationals and domiciled in Hong Kong; and (vi) all of Roshing’s employees are Hong Kong residents, we believe that we and our subsidiaries are not required to obtain any permissions or approvals from the Mainland China authorities for consummating this offering, including but not limited to the CSRC, to operate Roshing’s business or to list our securities on the U.S. exchanges and offer securities, including but not limited to issuing our common stock to foreign investors. We and our subsidiaries have not applied for, or been denied of any such permissions or approvals from the authorities of Mainland China. In addition, in the opinion of our PRC counsel, Jiangsu Junjin Law Firm, we are not subject to the cybersecurity review by the CAC over data security and our offering because we are a Nevada company and our only operating subsidiary is a Hong Kong company, neither entity has operations in Mainland China. In addition, we expect that we and our subsidiaries’ operations will continue to be conducted in Hong Kong as is the case as of the date of this prospectus. Therefore, we believe that the likelihood that we and our subsidiaries be required to obtain any permissions or approvals from the governmental authorities of Mainland China for our operations, or the listing of our securities on the U.S. exchanges and the offering of our securities in the future is very remote.

 

In addition, (1) we do not have a VIE structure and are not in an industry that is subject to foreign ownership limitations by China; and (2) neither us nor our only operating subsidiary, Roshing, has operations in Mainland China. For a detailed description of risks relating to the obtaining of necessary permissions or approvals from Mainland China authorities, see Risk Factors - While we believe that we and our subsidiaries, are currently not required to obtain permissions or approvals from Mainland China authorities for our business operations and/or the listing and offering of our securities, and it is very unlikely that we or our subsidiaries will be required to do so in the future, we cannot assure you that we or our subsidiaries will be able to obtain all such permissions or approvals if they are nevertheless required.

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Before investing in our common stock, you should carefully consider the risks described below, as well as the other information in this prospectus, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes. In addition, we may face additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or which as of the date of this registration statement we might not consider significant, which may adversely affect our business. If any of the following risks occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In such case the trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks or uncertainties, and you may lose part or all of your investment.

 

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

 

Risks Related to the Global Logistics Services

 

Geopolitical conditions, such as political instability or conflict, terrorist attacks and international hostilities can affect the Maritime transportation industry, which could adversely affect our business.

 

We conduct most of our operations outside of the United States and our business, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition and ability to pay dividends, if any, in the future may be adversely affected by changing economic, political and government conditions in the countries and regions where we operate. Moreover, we operate in a sector of the economy that has been and is likely to continue to be adversely impacted by the effects of geopolitical developments, including political instability or conflict, terrorist attacks or international hostilities.

 

Currently, the world economy faces a number of challenges, including tensions between the United States and China, new and continuing turmoil and hostilities in Russia, Ukraine, the Middle and other geographic areas and countries, continuing economic weakness in the European Union and slowing growth in China and the continuing threat of terrorist attacks around the world.

 

Trade barriers to protect domestic industries against foreign imports depress shipping demand. Protectionist developments, such as the imposition of trade tariffs or the perception they may occur, may have a material adverse effect on global economic conditions, and may significantly reduce global trade. Moreover, increasing trade protectionism may cause an increase in (a) the cost of goods exported from regions globally, (b) the length of time required to transport goods and (c) the risks associated with exporting goods. Such increases may significantly affect the quantity of goods to be shipped, shipping time schedules, voyage costs and other associated costs, which could have an adverse impact on our charterers’ business, operating results and financial condition and could thereby affect their ability to make timely charter hire payments to us and to renew and increase the number of their time charters with us. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. Further, protectionist policies in any country could impact global markets, including foreign exchange and securities markets. Any resulting changes in currency exchange rates, tariffs, treaties and other regulatory matters could in turn adversely impact our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

 

Any reduction in international commerce or disruption in global trade may adversely impact our business and operating results.

 

The Company primarily provides services to customers engaged in international commerce. Everything that affects international trade has the potential to expand or contract our primary markets and adversely impact our operating results. For example, international trade is influenced by:

 

·currency exchange rates and currency control regulations;
·interest rate fluctuations;
·changes and uncertainties in governmental policies and inter-governmental disputes, which could result in increased tariff rates, quota restrictions, trade barriers and other types of restrictions;

 

 

 

 17 

 

 

·changes in and application of international and domestic customs, trade and security regulations;
·wars, strikes, civil unrest, acts of terrorism, and other conflicts;
·changes in labor and other costs, including the impacts of inflation;
·increased global concerns regarding working conditions and environmental sustainability;
·changes in consumer attitudes regarding goods made in countries other than their own;
·changes in availability of credit; and
·changes in the price and readily available quantities of oil and other petroleum-related products.

 

Our industry is highly competitive, and failure to compete or respond to customer requirements could damage our business and the results of operations.

 

The global logistics services industry is intensely competitive and is expected to remain so for the foreseeable future. There are a large number of companies competing in one or more segments of the industry, but the number of firms with a global network that offer a full complement of logistics services is more limited. Nevertheless, many of these competitors have significantly more resources than the Company and may pursue acquisition opportunities and are developing new technologies to gain competitive advantages. Depending on the location of the shipper and the importer, we must compete against niche players, larger entities including carriers, and emerging technology companies. The primary competitive factors are price and quality of service. Many larger customers utilize the services of multiple logistics providers. Customers regularly solicit bids from competitors in order to improve service and to secure favorable pricing and contractual terms such as: longer payment terms; flexible-price arrangements; and performance penalties. Increased competition and competitors’ acceptance of expanded contractual terms coupled with customers’ dissatisfaction with elevated rates, scarce capacity, and extended transit times could result in loss of business, reduced revenues, reduced margins, higher operating costs or loss of market share, any of which would damage our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

 

Difficulty in forecasting timing or volumes of customer shipments or rate changes by carriers could adversely impact our margins and operating results.

 

We are not aware of any accurate means of forecasting short-term customer requirements. However, long-term customer satisfaction depends upon our ability to meet these unpredictable short-term customer requirements. Personnel costs, one of our larger costs, are always less flexible in the very near term as we must staff to meet uncertain demand. As a result, short-term operating results could be disproportionately affected.

 

The timing of our revenues is, to a large degree, impacted by factors out of our control, such as a sudden change in consumer demand for goods, changes in trade tariffs, product launches and/or manufacturing production delays. Additionally, many customers ship a significant portion of their goods at or near the end of a quarter, and therefore, we may not learn of a shortfall in revenues until late in a quarter. To the extent that a shortfall in revenues or earnings was not expected by securities analysts or investors, any such shortfall from levels predicted by securities analysts or investors could have an immediate and adverse effect on the trading price of our stock.

 

Volatile market conditions can create situations where rate increases charged by carriers and other service providers are implemented with little or no advance notice. We often cannot pass these rate increases on to our customers in the same time frame, if at all. As a result, our yields and margins can be negatively impacted.

 

Climate change, including measures to address climate change, could adversely impact our business and financial results.

 

The long-term effects of climate change are difficult to predict and may be widespread. The impacts of climate change may include physical risks (such as rising sea levels, which could affect port operations or frequency and severity of extreme weather conditions, which could disrupt our operations and damage cargo and our facilities), compliance costs and transition risks (such as increased regulation and taxation to support carbon emissions reduction investments), shifts in customer demands (such as customers requiring more fuel efficient transportation modes or transparency to carbon emissions in their supply chains) and customer contractual requirements around environmental initiatives and other adverse effects. Our non-asset model gives us flexibility and an ability to change locations, modes, and carriers based on evolving operating conditions. However, such impacts may disrupt our operations by adversely affecting our ability to procure services that meet regulatory or customer requirements, depending on the availability of sufficient appropriate logistics solutions.

 

 

 

 18 

 

 

In addition, the increasing concern over climate change has resulted and may continue to result in more regulations relating to climate change, including regulating greenhouse gas emissions, restrictions on modes of transportation, alternative energy policies and sustainability initiatives, such as the FuelEU Maritime initiative or the EU Emissions Trading System. If Hong Kong imposes more stringent restrictions and requirements than our current legal or regulatory obligations, we may experience disruptions in, or increases in the costs associated with delivering our services, which may negatively affect our operating our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

 

Roshing faces risks associated with the contents of shipments and inventories handled through its logistics services, including real or perceived quality or health issues with the products that are handled through Roshing’s logistics services, and risks inherent in the logistics industry, including personal injury, product damage, and transportation-related incidents.

 

The logistics services Roshing provides are subject to accident risks, including ship collisions, cargo damage, and cargo loss. Such events can result in significant financial costs, legal liability, and reputational damage. In addition, Roshing’s logistics service involve handling a large volume of bulk merchandise and containers, through cargo and freights operated by third-party shipping suppliers across Roshing’s logistics services, and face challenges with respect to the protection and examination of these bulk merchandise and containers. Bulk merchandise and containers in its network may be delayed, stolen, damaged or lost during delivery for various reasons, and we may be perceived or found liable for such incidents. Unsafe items, such as flammables and explosives, toxic or corrosive items and radioactive materials, may damage other bulk merchandise and containers in shipping process, harm the personnel and facilities of the third-party shipping suppliers, or even injure the recipients. Furthermore, if Roshing fails to prevent prohibited or restricted items from entering into its network and if it participates in the facilitate transportation and delivery of such items unknowingly, Roshing may be subject to administrative or even criminal penalties, and if any personal injury or property damage is concurrently caused, it may also be liable for civil compensation.

 

The logistics services for delivery of bulk merchandise and containers also involve inherent risks associated with transportation safety. From time to time, the vessels and personnel of its third-party shipping suppliers may be involved in transportation and cargo accidents, and the bulk merchandise and containers carried by them may be lost or damaged.

 

Roshing is also subject to worker health and safety laws and regulations that may expose us to costs and liabilities, potentially affecting its results of operations, competitive position, and financial condition adversely. These laws and regulations are stringent and comprehensive, governing the health and safety of Roshing’s and workers of third-party shipping suppliers during operations. For further details, please refer to the section titled “Regulations related to employment and labor protection” beginning on page 83.

 

Any of the foregoing could disrupt Roshing’s logistics services, cause us to incur substantial expenses and divert the time and attention of our management. Roshing may face claims and incur significant liabilities if found liable or partially liable for any injuries, damages or losses. Any uninsured or underinsured loss could negatively influence our business and financial condition. Governmental authorities may also impose significant fines on us or require us to adopt costly preventive measures. Furthermore, if Roshing’s logistics services are perceived to be insecure or unsafe by its customers, its business volume may be significantly reduced, and our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

 

Roshing is subject to potential risks arising from contractual obligations with shipping suppliers.

 

Roshing’s contractual obligations with shipping suppliers encompass precise terms and conditions. Should either party fail to uphold these provisions, it may result in legal disputes, financial penalties, and interruptions in service. These breaches, whether initiated by us or the shipping suppliers, pose potential risks to the continuity and efficiency of Roshing’s operations. Adhering to the terms outlined in these agreements is important to maintaining positive relationships with Roshing’s partners and ensuring the operation of Roshing’s shipping activities and logistics services.

 

 

 

 19 

 

 

Roshing faces risks from changing customer logistics needs, contractual obligations, and failure to meet customer requirements, which could lead to financial losses, legal liabilities, and damage to Roshing’s reputation if not managed proactively.

 

Roshing’s customers’ logistics needs are subject to constant change, influenced by market trends, technological advancements, and shifts in consumer behavior. Failure to adapt to these evolving demands could lead to significant business losses. Moreover, Roshing’s contractual obligations entail meeting specific performance standards, and any failure to do so may result in liability claims, financial setbacks, and damage to its reputation. Ensuring the fulfillment of all customer requirements, including adherence to delivery schedules, maintenance of cargo conditions, and compliance with regulatory standards, is paramount. Any lapses in meeting these requirements could not only result in lost business opportunities but also expose us to potential legal liabilities. Therefore, proactive measures to address these customer-related risks are essential for maintaining Roshing’s competitive edge and safeguarding its operations.

 

Our revenues, operating income and cash flows are likely to fluctuate and are subject to uncertainty and potential volatility in demand and supply for cargo space and container loads from time to time.

 

Roshing charters cargo space and container loads from shipping suppliers based on a certain volume and then sub-charters that space to our customers under an order contract. Roshing obtains cargo space and container loads through direct booking and block space arrangements. Pursuant to the block space agreements, it is committed to paying for the agreed cargo space and container loads irrespective of whether it could fully utilize the allotted space. In the event it cannot fully utilize the cargo space and container loads it sourced (i.e. the actual customers’ demand for the cargo space and container loads is less than the amount of cargo space and container loads it sourced), Roshing has to sell excess cargo space and container loads. Roshing however cannot assure that there will not be instances where, for example, due to (a) departure timetable of the vessel; (b) popularity of the route; or (c) seasonality factors, it is unable to fully consolidate/co-load all the excess cargo space and container loads it purchased from our suppliers. In case Roshing cannot fully utilize the cargo space and container loads it obtained from its suppliers, Roshing may have to bear the costs of all the excess cargo space and container loads it purchased and its business and results of operations could be adversely affected.

 

In the event of shortfall of the cargo space and container loads to meet customers’ demand (i.e. the actual customers’ demand for the cargo space and container loads are higher than the amount that Roshing has), Roshing has to source the cargo space and container loads from its suppliers at the prevailing market rates. Since cargo space and container loads offered by Roshing’s suppliers through direct booking is normally on a first-come-first-served basis, with no formal agreement for guaranteed supply of cargo space and container loads, there is no assurance that Roshing will be able to source sufficient cargo space and container loads to meet its customers’ demand within the expected timeframe and at favorable price. As a result of the shortfall of cargo space and container loads, its reputation and therefore its business, sales performance and results of operations will be adversely affected. 

 

In result, we may experience fluctuations in our revenues and cost structure and the resulting operating income and cash flows and expect that this will continue to occur in the future. We may experience fluctuations in our financial results, including revenues, operating income and earnings per share, for reasons that may include: (i) the types and complexity, number, size, timing and duration of client engagements; (ii) the timing of revenue recognition under U.S. GAAP; (iii) the utilization of revenue-generating professionals, including the ability to adjust staffing levels up or down to accommodate the business and prospects of the applicable segment and practice; (iv) the geographic locations of our clients or the locations where services are rendered; (v) the length of billing and collection cycles and changes in amounts that may become uncollectible; (vi) changes in the frequency and complexity of government regulatory and enforcement activities; (vii) business and asset acquisitions; (viii) fluctuations in the exchange rates of various currencies against the U.S. dollar; (ix) fee adjustments upon the renewal of expired service contracts or acceptance of new clients due to the adjusted scope per our refined business strategy; and (x) economic factors beyond our control.

The results of different segments and practices may be affected differently by the above factors. The positive effects of certain events or factors on certain segments and practices may not be sufficient to overcome the negative effects of those same events or factors on other parts of our business. In addition, our mix of practice offerings adds complexity to the task of predicting revenues and results of operations and managing our staffing levels and expenditures across changing business cycles and economic environments.

 

Our results are influenced by seasonal and similar factors. Although we evaluate our annual guidance at the end of each quarter and adjust it as necessary, unforeseen future volatility can lead to significant deviations from our guidance. This may occur even if our guidance encompasses a range of potential outcomes and has been updated to consider operating results.

 

Seasonality and the impact of weather and other catastrophic events adversely affect Roshing’s operations and profitability.

 

Roshing’s operation is influenced by seasonal factors, with February to April being off-peak seasons, and June to October being peak seasons. Roshing’s operation is affected by the winter season because inclement weather impedes operations, and some shippers reduce their shipments during winter. In addition, in the lead-up to major holidays such as Christmas and Chinese Spring Festival, increased consumer demand often leads to a short-term surge in cargo transportation volume. Conversely, in the later stages of holidays and traditional off-peak seasons, cargo transportation volume may significantly decrease. At the same time, operating expenses increase due to, among other things, a decline in fuel efficiency because of engine idling and harsh weather that creates higher accident frequency, increased claims and higher equipment repair expenditures. Roshing also may suffers from weather-related or other events, such as tornadoes, hurricanes, blizzards, ice storms, floods, fires, earthquakes and explosions, which may disrupt fuel supplies, increase fuel costs, disrupt freight shipments or routes, affect regional economies, destroy its assets or the assets of its customers or otherwise adversely affect the business or financial condition of Roshing’s customers, any of which developments could adversely affect its results or make its results more volatile.

 

Risk Related to Other Products & Services

 

Roshing has a great dependence on a limited number of suppliers and the loss of their manufacturing capability could materially impact on its operations.

 

Roshing is a distributor of hardware components for electronic devices and generates revenue from reselling these components and is not engaged in innovative product development and direct manufacturing business. Roshing markets off-the-shelf products, which ships directly from the manufacturer to Roshing’s customer. In the event that the supply of components or finished products is interrupted or relations with any of its principal vendors is terminated, there could be increased costs and considerable delay in finding suitable replacement sources to manufacture the electronic device hardware components products (“Hardware Products”). Its Hardware Products mostly are shipped from facilities located in Guangdong, China. The shipment of these products from Mainland China exposes us to the possibility of product supply disruption and increased costs in the event of changes in the economics condition of China.

 

Defects in the Hardware Products Roshing sells or failures in quality control related to its distribution of products could impair its ability to sell its products or could result in product liability claims, litigation and other significant events involving substantial costs.

 

The detection of significant defects in Roshing’s Hardware Products or failures in its quality control procedures, including those of its suppliers, carries several potential consequences. These include delays in bringing products to market, decreased sales, and challenges in gaining market acceptance. Furthermore, such issues may lead to the diversion of its development resources and damage to its reputation, with potential regulatory restrictions. Rectifying product defects can incur substantial costs, and identifying suitable remedies may prove difficult. Moreover, errors or defects could result in financial damage to its customers, potentially leading to litigation. Product liability lawsuits, regardless of the outcome, may entail significant time and expenses for defense. In the absence of product liability insurance and without being named insured on its suppliers’ policies, Roshing faces the risk of being unable to cover claims or seek reimbursement from suppliers, leaving us potentially exposed to financial liabilities.

The software and website development markets are highly competitive.

 

The management software and website development industries are highly competitive. There are a number of larger companies, including computer manufacturers, computer service and software companies that have greater operational, personnel and financial resources than we have. These companies currently offer and have the technological ability to develop software products similar to those offered by us. These companies present a significant competitive challenge to Roshing’s business. Because we do not have the same financial resources as these competitors, we may have a difficult time in the future competing with these companies. We compete based on its fright shipping and logistics knowledge, products, service, price, system functionality and performance and technological advances. Customized and special services according to customer needs, there is technical weakness.

 

The industry in which Roshing operates has low barriers to entry and is highly fragmented and very competitive. We anticipate that competition may intensify further as the freight software industry matures and consolidates. Roshing’s key strength lies in providing tailored services to wholesalers, e-commerce retailers and freight forwarders in market segments that share the value of Roshing’s technology. These services facilitate the management of complex workflows and improve efficiency by enabling shipping workflow management, Marine container management, e-commerce inventory and shipping management, and logistics data analytics. However, we cannot guarantee continuous improvement in technology and services.

 

Roshing’s software and website may not perform in line with customer specifications or expectations.

 

Roshing’s freight shipping and related logistic software and websites may not perform in line with customers’ expectations. Future customers may also require customized specifications that Roshing is unable to deliver. Some of these target specifications, such as those dependent on battery technology, are constrained by the pace of general technological advancement and the capabilities of its suppliers, which are largely beyond its control.

 

Roshing’s software and website may contain design or manufacturing defects that result in unsatisfactory performance or require repair. Roshing’s software and website use a substantial amount of algorithms and software to operate. Software products are inherently complex and often contain defects and errors, especially when first introduced. While Roshing have performed extensive internal testing on its software and website, we have a limited frame of reference by which to evaluate the long-term performance of its software and website. There can be no assurance that Roshing will be able to detect and fix any defects in its software and website before we sell products and services to customers.

 

If Roshing’s software and website is defective or otherwise fails to perform as expected or in accordance with prescribed technical specifications and timetable, its customers may experience accidents and suffer adverse publicity, revenue declines, ecommerce inventory disarray, breakdown of shipping workflows, product liability claims, and significant additional expenses. These consequences could have a material adverse impact on its business, financial condition, operating results, and prospects.

 

Additionally, Roshing’s software, along with that of our third-party service provider, containing personal information of software customers, and others, could be breached, exposing us to adverse publicity, costly government enforcement actions or private litigation, and expenses. Cyber criminals constantly devise schemes to bypass IT security safeguards, and other retailers have experienced severe data breaches. Roshing may not anticipate all security threats or implement preventive measures against them effectively. The costs to mitigate network security issues could be significant, and while Roshing implemented security measures, addressing these issues may not always succeed. Unauthorized access to Roshing’s networks or databases could result in theft, publication, deletion, modification, or blocking of sensitive information, adversely affecting our business strategy, financial condition, or operations. While Roshing has not experienced cybersecurity incidents in the past three years, we anticipate threats to persist and cannot assure such events will not occur or have material impacts on Roshing’s operations, results of operations and financial condition in the future.

If Roshing does not continually update its products and/or services, they may become obsolete and Roshing may not be able to compete with other companies.

 

Roshing cannot assure that it will be able to keep pace with technological advances, or that its current suppliers will be able to keep pace with technological advances and as such, its products and/or services may become obsolete. Roshing cannot assure you that competitors will not develop related or similar services and offer them before Roshing does, or does so more successfully, or that they will not develop services and products more effective than any that Roshing and/or its suppliers have or are intending to develop. In addition, although Roshing may be able to identify new suppliers that can provide more effective services and products to be more competitive, Roshing may not be able to arrange satisfactory arrangements in a timely manner, if at all. If that happens, its business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition will be materially adversely affected.

 

Roshing may not be able to continue to recruit, train and retain dedicated and qualified consultants who are essential to the success of its business and the effective delivery of policy and business advisory services to its individual and corporate clients.

 

Roshing’s current talent policy advisory and application services rely heavily on Roshing’s visa consultants, and the conduct of Roshing’s visa consultants is critical to maintaining its reputation. Roshing seeks to hire qualified and dedicated consultants who have the necessary experience to provide effective advice and guidance to its clients in accordance with government policies and business management expertise and experience. The number of consultants with these qualities is limited and Roshing needs to implement a highly selective recruitment process.

 

A decline in the market for individual clients of Roshing’s business consulting services and corporate business consulting could have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

 

There is an anticipation of potential Hong Kong talent introduction policy revisions or the cessation of policy benefits after the second half of 2024, which may lead to a reduction or cessation of its consulting services for talent clients. Additionally, fluctuations in Hong Kong’s global business attractiveness or other factors may impact the number of enterprises establishing business activities in Hong Kong, potentially slowing business demand and affecting the growth of consulting enterprises we serve. Consequently, Roshing’s business, prospects, financial condition, and operating results may be significantly and adversely affected.

 

General Business Risks

 

We have a limited operating history and face significant challenges and will incur substantial expenses as we build our capabilities.

 

We have a limited operating history and are subject to the risks inherent in a growing company, including, among other things, risks that we may not be able to hire sufficient qualified personnel and establish operating controls and procedures. The company relies on few trained internal personnel as the company only has 11 full time employees. As we build our own capabilities, we expect to encounter risks and uncertainties frequently experienced by growing companies in new and rapidly evolving fields, including the risks and uncertainties described herein. If we are unable to build our own capabilities, our operating and financial results could differ materially from our expectations, and our business could suffer.

 

 

 

 

 

 23 

 

 

We are currently dependent on a small group of customers for most of our revenue. If we cannot expand our customer base many-fold, our business growth will be challenged and affected, resulting in adjustments to our business strategy.

 

As we have not achieved significant scale, we had and expect to continue to have customer concentration. The revenue generated to date by our business has come from a small number of customers. During the three months ended October 31, 2024, two customers accounted for 56.5% and 19.7% of our revenue. During the three months ended October 31, 2023, two customers accounted for 61.2% and 13.1% of our revenue. During the year ended July 31, 2024, three customers were responsible for over 84% of our revenue. During the year ended July 31, 2023, two customers were responsible for over 52% of our revenue. In order for Tianci to be viable as a public company, we must increase our revenue. To accomplish that, we must expand our customer base. If we fail to multiply our customers, Tianci’s stock may have no significant value. There are inherent risks whenever a large percentage of revenues are concentrated with a limited number of customers. We are unable to predict the future level of demand for our services that will be generated by these customers. In addition, we cannot assure that any of our customers in the future will not cease purchasing logistics services from us, or that our cooperating agents will continue introducing clients to us. Should they favor logistics services from our competitors, significantly reduce orders, or seek price reductions in the future, any such event could have a material adverse effect on our revenue, profitability, and results of operations.

 

We rely on shipping suppliers, cargo owner and cargo agents and Hardware Products suppliers, if they become financially unstable or have reduced capacity to provide services because of pandemics, such as COVID-19, it may adversely impact our business and operating results.

 

We depend on shipping suppliers, cargo owners, cargo agents, and hardware products suppliers. The quality and profitability of our services and business depend on the effective selection and oversight of these partners. Pandemics, such as COVID-19 have ever placed significant stress on our shipping suppliers, cargo owners, cargo agents, and hardware products suppliers, which may continue to result in reduced carrier capacity or availability, pricing volatility or more limited carrier transportation schedules which could adversely impact our operations and financial results. During the pandemic, air carriers have been particularly affected having to cancel freights due to travel restrictions resulting in dramatic drops in revenues, historical losses and liquidity challenges. Uncertainty over recovery of demand for passenger air travel, in particular business travel, to pre-pandemic levels means ship carriers’ operations and financial stability may be adversely affected long term.

 

Our business could be negatively affected by rising inflation and interest rates.

 

Various macroeconomic factors could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, including changes in inflation, interest rates and overall economic conditions and uncertainties such as those resulting from the current and future conditions in the global financial markets.

 

For instance, recent inflationary environment has negatively impacted us by slightly increasing (i) our labor costs, through higher wages, (ii) our borrowing costs, through higher interest rates which we expect to continue to increase, and (iii) our other operating costs, such as through higher rates charged by our service suppliers. Supply chain constraints have led to higher inflation, which if sustained, could have a negative impact on our operations. To moderate effects of these increasing costs, we instituted proactive initiatives to optimize efficiencies in our daily operations. We also replaced certain service suppliers with alternatives that offered more competitive rates while not compromising service quality. In addition, we expect to modestly increase the rates we charge our customers in response to the inflationary environment should such inflationary pressures further deteriorate in the near future. However, we cannot assure you that these measures we have taken or will take will be effective, if at all, or that we will be able to effectively mitigate any inflationary pressures in the future. If inflation or interest rates were to significantly increase, our business and the results of operations may be negatively affected.

 

Interest rates, liquidity of credit markets and volatility of capital markets could also affect our business and results of operations as well as our ability to raise capital on favorable terms, or at all.

 

 

 

 24 

 

 

If we are unable to hire, retain or motivate qualified personnel, consultants, independent contractors, and advisors, we may not be able to grow effectively.

 

Our performance will be largely dependent on the talents and efforts of highly skilled individuals that we attract to our company. Our future success depends on our continuing ability to identify, hire, develop, motivate and retain highly qualified personnel for all areas of our organization: technological as well as entrepreneurial. Competition for such qualified employees is intense. If we do not succeed in attracting competent personnel or in retaining or motivating them, we may be unable to grow effectively. In addition, our future success depends largely on our ability to retain key consultants and advisors. Our inability to retain their services could negatively impact our business and our ability to execute our business strategy.

 

The Company and its subsidiaries do not presently maintain fire, theft, product liability or any other property insurance, which leaves us with exposure in the event of loss or damage to our properties or claims filed against us.

 

The Company and its subsidiaries do not maintain fire, theft, product liability or property insurance of any kind. The company and its subsidiaries bear the economic risk with respect to loss of or damage or destruction to our property and to the interruption of our business, as well as liability to third parties for damage or destruction to them or their property that may be caused by our personnel or products. Such liability could be substantial and the occurrence of such loss or liability may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects.

 

Our operating history may not be indicative of our future growth or financial results and we may not be able to sustain our historical growth rates.

 

Our operating history may not be indicative of our future growth or financial results. There is no assurance that we will be able to grow in future periods. Our growth rates may decline for any number of possible reasons and some of them are beyond our control, including decreasing customer demand, increasing competition, declining growth of the touchscreen industry in general, emergence of alternative business models, or changes in government policies or general economic conditions. We will continue to expand our sales network and product offerings to bring greater convenience to our customers and to increase our customer base and number of transactions. However, the execution of our expansion plan is subject to uncertainty and the total number of items sold and number of transacting customers may not grow at the rate we expect for the reasons stated above. If our growth rates decline, investors’ perceptions of our business and prospects may be adversely affected and the market price of our common stock could decline.

 

We incur significant costs and demands upon management and accounting and finance resources as a result of complying with the laws and regulations affecting public companies; if we fail to maintain proper and effective internal controls, our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements and otherwise make timely and accurate public disclosure could be impaired, which could harm our operating results, our ability to operate our business and our reputation.

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

 

 

 

 25 

 

 

An evaluation was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of October 31, 2024. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms as a result of the following material weaknesses:

 

  · There is an inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives. The Company’s management is limited in number, resulting in a situation where limitations on segregation of duties exist. In order to remedy this situation, we would need to hire additional staff to provide greater segregation of duties. Currently, it is not feasible to hire additional staff to obtain optimal segregation of duties. Management will reassess this matter in the following year to determine whether improvement in segregation of duty is feasible.
     
  · There is a lack of formal policies and procedures necessary to adequately review significant accounting transactions. The Company utilizes a third-party independent contractor for the preparation of its financial statements. Although the financial statements and footnotes are reviewed by our management, we do not have a formal policy to review significant accounting transactions and the accounting treatment of such transactions. The third-party independent contractor is not involved in the day to day operations of the Company and may not be provided information from management on a timely basis to allow for adequate reporting/consideration of certain transactions.

 

Our management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

 

If our internal control over financial reporting or our disclosure controls are not effective, we may be unable to issue our financial statements in a timely manner, we may be unable to obtain the required audit or review of our financial statements by our independent registered public accounting firm in a timely manner or we may be otherwise unable to comply with the periodic reporting requirements of the SEC, our common stock intended to be listed on Nasdaq could be suspended or terminated and our share price could materially suffer. In addition, we or members of our management could be subject to investigation and sanction by the SEC and other regulatory authorities and to shareholder lawsuits, which could impose significant additional costs on us and divert management attention.

 

We may fail to make necessary acquisitions or investments or enter desirable strategic alliances, and we may not be able to achieve the anticipated benefits from such acquisitions, investments or strategic alliances.

 

Our strategy for long-term growth, productivity and profitability depends in part on our ability to make prudent decisions to make strategic acquisitions or investments or enter desirable alliances and to realize the benefits we expect when we make those investments or acquisitions. We may evaluate and consider strategic acquisitions and investments or enter strategic alliances to develop new services or solutions, with an aim to enhance our competitive position and achieve long-term growth, productivity and profitability. However, we cannot assure you that we will make prudent decisions on such acquisitions, investments, strategic alliances at all times. In addition, investments or acquisitions involve numerous risks, including (i) potential failure to achieve the expected benefits of the integration or acquisition, (ii) difficulties in, and the cost of, integrating operations, technologies, services and personnel, (iii) potential write-offs of acquired assets or investments and (iv) downward effect on our operating results. These transactions will also divert management’s time and resources from our normal course of operations, and we may have to incur unexpected liabilities or expenses. Strategic alliances with third parties could also subject us to a number of risks, including risks associated with potential leakage of proprietary information, non-performance by the counterparty and an increase in expenses incurred in establishing new strategic alliances, any of which may materially and adversely affect our business.

 

If we cannot successfully execute or effectively operate, integrate, leverage and grow the acquired businesses or strategic alliances, our financial results and reputation may be materially and adversely affected. While we expect our future acquisitions, investments or strategic alliances to further enhance our value propositions to customers and improve our long-term profitability, there can be no assurance that we will realize our expectations within the time frame we envisage, if at all, or that we can continue to support the values we allocate to these acquired, invested or alliance businesses, including their goodwill or other intangible assets.

 

 

 

 26 

 

 

We may not be able to prevent others from unauthorized use of our intellectual property, which could harm our business and competitive position.

 

We may become an attractive target for intellectual property attacks in the future with the increasing recognition of our brand. Any of our intellectual property rights could be challenged, invalidated, circumvented or misappropriated, or such intellectual property may not be sufficient to provide us with competitive advantages. In addition, there can be no assurance that (i) all of our intellectual property rights will be adequately protected, or (ii) our intellectual property rights will not be challenged by third parties or found by a judicial authority to be invalid or unenforceable. As of the date of the prospectus, we have only two domain names: roshing.com and tianci-ciit.com. We have not owned or had rights to any other intellectual property, such as patents, copyrights, trademarks, etc.

 

We are a “smaller reporting company” under Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and we cannot be certain if the scaled disclosure requirements applicable to 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.

  

We may continue to be a smaller reporting company. We may take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies and will be able to take advantage of these scaled disclosures for so long as (a) the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates is equal to or less than $250 million as of the last business day of the most recently completed second fiscal quarter, and (b) our annual revenues is equal to or less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates is equal to or less than $700 million as of the last business day of the most recently completed second fiscal quarter.

 

We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile. In addition, taking advantage of reduced disclosure obligations may make the comparison of our financial statements with other public companies difficult or impossible. If investors are unable to compare our business with other companies in our industry, we may not be able to raise additional capital as and when we need it, which may materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

 

Anti-takeover provisions contained in our bylaws and articles of incorporation as well as provisions of Nevada law, could impair a takeover attempt.

 

Our bylaws, amended articles of incorporation and Nevada law contain provisions which could have the effect of rendering more difficult, delaying or preventing an acquisition deemed undesirable by our board of directors. Our corporate governance documents include provisions:

 

·limiting the liability of, and providing indemnification to, our directors and officers;
·limiting the ability of our stockholders to call and bring business before special meetings;
·controlling the procedures for the conduct and scheduling of board of directors and stockholder meetings;
·providing our board of directors with the express power to postpone previously scheduled annual meetings;
·permitting the removal of directors only upon vote or written consent of stockholders representing not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the issued and outstanding capital stock entitled to voting power; and
·

restricting the ability to adopt a new bylaw upon a majority vote of stockholders. The Board shall have the power to amend, alter, change, or repeal any provision contained in the bylaws of incorporation.

 

These provisions, alone or together, could delay or prevent hostile takeovers and changes in control or changes in our management.

 

The Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) Sections 78.411 through 78.444, regulate business combinations with interested stockholders. The NRS defines an interested stockholder as a beneficial owner (directly or indirectly) of 10% or more of the voting power of the outstanding shares of the corporation. Pursuant to NRS Sections 78.411 through 78.444, combinations with an interested stockholder remain prohibited for two years after the person became an interested stockholder unless (i) the transaction is approved by the board of directors or the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares not beneficially owned by the interested party, or (ii) the interested stockholder satisfies certain fair value requirements. NRS 78.434 permits a Nevada corporation to opt out of the statute with appropriate provisions in its articles of incorporation.

 

 

 

 27 

 

 

NRS Sections 78.378 through 78.3793 regulates the acquisition of a controlling interest in an issuing corporation. An issuing corporation is defined as a Nevada corporation with 200 or more stockholders of record, of which at least 100 stockholders have addresses of record in Nevada and does business in Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation. NRS Section 78.379 provides that an acquiring person and those acting in association with an acquiring person obtain only such voting rights in the control shares as are conferred by a resolution of the stockholders of the corporation, approved at a special or annual meeting of the stockholders. Stockholders who vote against the voting rights have dissenters’ rights in the event that the stockholders approve voting rights. NRS Section 78.378 provides that a Nevada corporation’s articles of incorporation or bylaws may provide that these sections do not apply to the corporation.

 

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

 

We believe our brand image and corporate reputation will play an increasingly important role in enhancing our competitiveness and maintaining business growth. Many factors, some of which are beyond our control, may negatively impact our brand image and corporate reputation if not properly managed. These factors include our ability to provide superior solutions and services to our customers, successfully conduct marketing and promotional activities, manage relationship with and among our customers and business partners, and manage complaints and events of negative publicity, maintain positive perception of our Company, our peers and supply chain solution industry in general. Any actual or perceived deterioration of our service quality, which is based on an array of factors including customer satisfaction, rate of complaint or rate of incident, could subject us to damages such as loss of important customers. Any negative publicity against us, our solutions and services, operations, directors, senior management, employees, business partners or our peers could adversely affect customer perception of our brand, cause damages to our corporate reputation and result in decreased demand for our solutions and services. If we are unable to promote our brand image and protect our corporate reputation, we may not be able to maintain and grow our customer base, and our business and growth prospects may be adversely affected.

 

We may from time to time be subject to claims, disputes, lawsuits and other legal and administrative proceedings.

 

We and our management may be subject to claims, disputes, lawsuits, investigations and other legal and administrative proceedings incidental to the conduct of our business from time to time. We are currently not party to any legal or arbitration proceedings, including those relating to bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings and those involving any third party, which may have, or have had in the recent past, material adverse effects on our financial position or profitability. Any claims against us or our management, with or without merit, could be time-consuming and costly to defend or litigate, divert our management’s attention and resources or harm our brand equity. Claims arising out of actual or alleged violations of law, breach of contract or torts could be asserted against us by customers, business partners, suppliers, competitors, employees or governmental entities in investigations and legal proceedings. These claims could be asserted under a variety of laws, including but not limited to intellectual property laws, labor and employment laws, securities laws, tort laws, contract laws, property laws, and employee benefit laws. If a lawsuit or governmental proceeding against us is successful, we may be required to pay substantial damages or fines. We may also lose, or be limited in, the rights to offer some of our services. As a result, the scope of our services could be reduced, which could adversely affect our ability to attract new customers, harm our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Even if we are successful in our attempt to defend ourselves in legal and administrative actions or to assert our rights under various laws, enforcing our rights against the various parties involved may be expensive, time-consuming, and ultimately futile.

 

While we believe that we and our subsidiaries are currently not required to obtain any other permissions or approvals from Hong Kong authorities for our business operations, we cannot assure you that we or our subsidiaries will be able to obtain all such permissions or approvals if they are nevertheless required.

 

The Directors confirm that, as of the date of this prospectus, we and our subsidiaries have received all requisite permissions or approvals from the Hong Kong authorities to operate its business in Hong Kong, including but not limited to obtaining a business registration certificate. However, we have been advised by our Hong Kong counsel that laws, regulations, or policies in Hong Kong could change in the future. If (i) we or our subsidiaries do not receive or maintain such permissions or approvals, (ii) we or our subsidiaries inadvertently conclude that any other permissions or approvals are not required, or (iii) applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change and we are required to obtain such permissions or approvals in the future, our operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected, and our ability to offer securities to investors could be significantly limited or completely hindered and the securities currently being offered may substantially decline in value and become worthless.

 

We may engage in transactions that present conflicts of interest.

 

The Company’s officers and directors may enter into agreements with the Company from time to time which may not be equivalent to similar transactions entered into with an independent third party. A conflict of interest arises whenever a person has an interest on both sides of a transaction. While we believe that it will take prudent steps to ensure that all transactions between the Company and any officer or director is fair, reasonable, and no more than the amount it would otherwise pay to a third party in an “arms-length” transaction, there can be no assurance that any transaction will meet these requirements in every instance.

 

 

 

 28 

 

 

We may adjust our business strategies and models in response to changing market conditions, competitive pressures, or regulatory changes. However, there is no guarantee that these adjustments will be successful, and they may not achieve the desired results, potentially impacting our performance and financial results.

 

As changes in our business environment occur, we may adjust our business strategies to meet these changes, or we may otherwise decide to restructure our operations or businesses or assets. In addition, external events such as shifts in demographics, alterations in consumer behavior, fluctuations in macroeconomic conditions, and amendments to laws, regulations, and government policies governing international trade and commerce may impair the value of our assets and increase our costs. When these changes or events occur, we may incur costs to modify our business strategy to respond to those market dynamics and satisfactorily meet customers’ demands. To meet customer demand and implement our strategies and expansion plan, we may shift to a Vessel-Operating Common Carrier. This shift aims to achieve cost efficiency by reducing transportation costs, as owning and operating vessels can decrease dependency on third-party shipping companies, potentially lowering transportation costs over time. Additionally, operating our own vessels can also provide a competitive advantage over companies that rely on third-party carriers. However, this transition may result in significant expenses for the purchase of vessels and related infrastructure necessary for our business growth. Such initiatives and enhancements may require substantial capital expenditures. If we are unable to successfully implement our business strategies and effectively respond to changes in market dynamics, our future financial results will suffer. Furthermore, we have incurred, and may continue to incur, increased operating expenses in connection with certain changes to our business strategies.

 

Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong

 

Most of our operations are in Hong Kong. However, due to the long arm provisions under the current Mainland China laws and regulations, the Chinese government may exercise significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business and may intervene in or influence our operations at any time, or may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in issuers like us, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our common stock.

 

Tianci is a holding company and we conduct our operation through our operating subsidiary Roshing in Hong Kong. Our operations are primarily located in Hong Kong and few of our clients are Mainland China residents. At the present time, we are not materially affected by recent statements by the Mainland China Government indicating an intent to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers. However, due to long arm provisions under the current Mainland China laws and regulations, there remains regulatory uncertainty with respect to the implementation of Chinese law in Hong Kong. The PRC government may choose to exercise significant oversight and discretion, and the policies, regulations, rules, and the enforcement of laws of the PRC government to which we are subject may change rapidly and with little advance notice to us or our stockholders. These laws and regulations may be interpreted and applied inconsistently by different agencies or authorities, and inconsistently with our current policies and practices. New laws, regulations, and other government directives in the PRC may also be costly to comply with.

 

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

 

China’s government may intervene or influence our operations at any time or may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and foreign investment in Hong Kong-based issuers, which may result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our common stock. The promulgation of new laws or regulations, or the new interpretation of existing laws and regulations, in each case that restrict or otherwise unfavorably impact the ability or way we conduct our business and could require us to change certain aspects of our business to ensure compliance, which could decrease demand for our services, reduce revenues, increase costs, require us to obtain more licenses, permits, approvals or certificates, or subject us to additional liabilities. To the extent any new or more stringent measures are required to be implemented, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected as well as materially decrease the value of our common stock.

 

 

 

 29 

 

 

We will rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our Hong Kong subsidiary to fund any cash and financing requirements we may have. In the future, the PRC government may impose restrictions on our ability to transfer funds out of Hong Kong to fund operations or for other use outside of Hong Kong. Any limitation on the ability of our Hong Kong subsidiary to make payments to us could have a material adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business and might materially decrease the value of our common stock.

 

We are a holding company incorporated in the United States, and we rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our subsidiary in Hong Kong for our cash and financing requirements, including the funds necessary to pay dividends and other cash distributions to our stockholders and service any debt we may incur. If our Hong Kong subsidiary incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us.

 

Under the current practice of the Inland Revenue Department of Hong Kong, no tax is payable in Hong Kong in respect of dividends paid by Roshing. The Mainland China laws and regulations do not currently have any material impact on transfers of cash from Roshing to Tianci or from Tianci to Roshing. However, the Chinese government may, in the future, impose restrictions or limitations on our ability to transfer money out of Hong Kong, to distribute earnings and pay dividends to and from the other entities within our organization, or to reinvest in our business outside of Hong Kong. Such restrictions and limitations, if imposed in the future, may delay or hinder the expansion of our business to outside of Hong Kong and may affect our ability to receive funds from our operating subsidiary in Hong Kong. The promulgation of new laws or regulations, or the new interpretation of existing laws and regulations, in each case, that restrict or otherwise unfavorably impact the ability or way we conduct our business, could require us to change certain aspects of our business to ensure compliance, which could decrease demand for our services, reduce revenues, increase costs, require us to obtain more licenses, permits, approvals or certificates, or subject us to additional liabilities. To the extent any new or more stringent measures are implemented, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected and such measures could materially decrease the value of our common stock.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Under the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong has a high degree of autonomy and executive, legislative and independent judicial powers, including that of final adjudication under the principle of “one country, two systems”, while the government of the PRC is responsible for its foreign affairs and defense. As a separate customs territory, Hong Kong maintains and develops relations with foreign states and regions. However, based on recent political development, the U.S. State Department has indicated that the United States no longer considers Hong Kong to have significant autonomy from China. Hong Kong’s preferential trade status was removed by the United States government and the United States may impose the same tariffs and other trade restrictions on exports from Hong Kong that it places on goods from Mainland China. These and other recent actions may represent an escalation in political and trade tensions involving the U.S., China and Hong Kong, which could potentially harm our business.

The enactment of Law of the PRC on Safeguarding National Security in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the “Hong Kong National Security Law”) could impact our Hong Kong subsidiary.

 

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

 

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

 

Substantially all our operations are based in Hong Kong. Accordingly, our business operations and financial condition will be affected by the political and legal developments in Hong Kong. During the period covered by the financial information included in this prospectus, we derive substantially all of our revenue from operations in Hong Kong. Any adverse economic, social and/or political conditions, material social unrest, strike, riot, civil disturbance or disobedience, as well as significant natural disasters, may adversely affect our business operations. Hong Kong is a special administrative region of the PRC and the basic policies of the PRC regarding Hong Kong are reflected in the Basic Law, namely, Hong Kong’s constitutional document, which provides Hong Kong with a high degree of autonomy and executive, legislative and independent judicial powers, including that of final adjudication under the principle of “one country, two systems”. However, there is no assurance that there will not be any changes in the economic, political and legal environment in Hong Kong in the future. Since a substantial part of our operations is based in Hong Kong, any change of such political arrangements may pose an immediate threat to the stability of the economy in Hong Kong, thereby directly and adversely affecting our results of operations and financial position.

 

If the PRC attempts to alter its agreement to allow Hong Kong to function autonomously, this could potentially impact Hong Kong’s common law legal system and may in turn bring about uncertainty in, for example, the enforcement of our contractual rights. This could, in turn, materially and adversely affect our business and operations. Additionally, intellectual property rights and confidentiality protections in Hong Kong may not be as effective as in the United States or other countries. Accordingly, we cannot predict the effect of future developments in the Hong Kong legal system, including the promulgation of new laws, changes to existing laws or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, or the preemption of local regulations by national laws. These uncertainties could limit the legal protections available to us, including our ability to enforce our agreements with our customers.

 

Our revenue is susceptible to the ongoing incidents or factors which affect the stability of the social, economic and political conditions in Hong Kong. Any drastic events may adversely affect our business operations. Such adverse events may include changes in economic conditions and regulatory environment, social and/or political conditions, civil disturbance or disobedience, as well as significant natural disasters. Given the relatively small geographical size of Hong Kong, any of such incidents may have a widespread effect on our business operations, which could in turn adversely and materially affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. It is difficult to predict the full impact of the HKAA on Hong Kong and companies with operations in Hong Kong like us. Furthermore, legislative or administrative actions in respect of China-U.S. relations could cause investor uncertainty for affected issuers, including us, and the market price of our shares could be adversely affected.

Recent joint statement by the SEC and the PCAOB, proposed rule changes submitted by Nasdaq, and the newly enacted Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act all call for additional and more stringent criteria to be applied to emerging market companies upon assessing the qualification of their auditors, especially the non-U.S. auditors who are not inspected by the PCAOB. These developments could add uncertainties to the trading of our common stock on U.S. stock exchanges, including the possibility that our securities can be delisted if the PCAOB cannot inspect or fully investigate our auditor.

 

On April 21, 2020, the SEC Chairman and PCAOB Chairman, along with other senior SEC staff, released a joint statement highlighting the risks associated with investing in companies based in or have substantial operations in emerging markets including China. The joint statement emphasized the risks associated with lack of access for the PCAOB to inspect auditors and audit work papers in China and higher risks of fraud in emerging markets.

 

On May 18, 2020, Nasdaq filed three proposals with the SEC to (1) apply minimum offering size requirement for companies primarily operating in “Restrictive Market,” (2) adopt a new requirement relating to the qualification of management or board of director for Restrictive Market companies, and (3) apply additional and more stringent criteria to an applicant or listed company based on the qualifications of the Company’s auditor.

 

On June 4, 2020, the U.S. President issued a memorandum ordering the President’s working group on financial markets to submit a report to the President within 60 days of the date of the memorandum that should include recommendations for actions that can be taken by the executive branch and by the SEC or PCAOB to enforce U.S. regulatory requirements on Chinese companies listed on U.S. stock exchanges and their audit firms. However, it remains unclear what further actions, if any, the U.S. executive branch, the SEC, and PCAOB will take to address the problem.

 

On August 6, 2020, the President’s working group released a report recommending that the SEC take steps to implement the five recommendations outlined in the report. In particular, to address companies from jurisdictions that do not provide the PCAOB with sufficient access to fulfill its statutory mandate, the President’s working group recommended enhanced listing standards on U.S. stock exchanges. This would require, as a condition to initial and continued exchange listing, PCAOB access to the work papers of the principal audit firm for the audit of the listed company. Companies unable to satisfy this standard as a result of governmental restrictions on access to audit work papers and practices in their jurisdiction may satisfy this standard by providing a co-audit from an audit firm with comparable resources and experience where the PCAOB determines it has sufficient access to audit work papers and practices to conduct an appropriate inspection of the co-audit firm. The report permits the new listing standards to provide for a transition period until January 1, 2022, for listed companies, but would apply immediately to new listings once the necessary rulemakings and/or standard-setting are effective.

 

On August 10, 2020, the SEC announced that the SEC Chairman had directed the SEC staff to prepare proposals in response to the report of the President’s working group, and that the SEC was soliciting public comments and information with respect to the development of these proposals.

 

On May 20, 2020, the U.S. Senate passed the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, or the Act. The Act was approved by the U.S. House of Representatives on December 2, 2020. On December 18, 2020, the Act was signed into public law by the President of the United States. In essence, the Act requires the SEC to prohibit foreign companies from listing securities on U.S. securities exchanges if a company retains a foreign accounting firm that cannot be inspected by the PCAOB for three consecutive years, beginning in 2021. On March 24, 2021, the SEC announced that it had adopted interim final amendments to implement congressionally mandated submission and disclosure requirements of the Act. The interim final amendments will apply to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report on Forms 10-K, 20-F, 40-F or N-CSR with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that the PCAOB has determined it is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in that jurisdiction.

 

On June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act and on December 29, 2022 the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act was enacted, which amended the HFCA Act by requiring the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three, thus reducing the time before our securities may be prohibited from trading or delisted.

 

 

 

 32 

 

 

On December 2, 2021, the SEC adopted amendments to finalize rules implementing the submission and disclosure requirements in the HFCA Act. The rules apply to registrants that the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is located in a foreign jurisdiction and that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in a foreign jurisdiction.

 

On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a report on its determinations that it is unable to inspect or investigate completely PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in China and in Hong Kong because of positions taken by Mainland China and Hong Kong authorities in those jurisdictions. The PCAOB has made such designations as mandated under the HFCA Act. Pursuant to each annual determination by the PCAOB, the SEC will, on an annual basis, identify issuers that have used non-inspected audit firms and thus are at risk of such suspensions in the future.

  

On August 26, 2022, the SEC issued a statement announcing that the PCAOB signed a SOP with the CSRC and the Ministry of Finance of the People’s Republic of China governing inspections and investigations of audit firms based in China and Hong Kong, jointly agreeing on the need for a framework.

 

On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB announced that it has secured complete access to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in Mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate the previous Determination Report to the contrary.

 

Michael T. Studer CPA P.C. issued the audit report for our Company for the year ended July 31, 2023. Michael T. Studer CPA P.C. serves as an auditor of companies that are traded publicly in the United States and is a firm registered with the PCAOB, is subject to laws in the United States, pursuant to which the PCAOB conducts regular inspections to assess its compliance with the applicable professional standards. Michael T. Studer CPA P.C. is headquartered in Freeport, New York and has been inspected by the PCAOB on a regular basis. On September 11, we dismissed Michael T. Studer CPA P.C. and engaged Bush & Associates CPA LLC as the Company’s independent public accounting firm for the year ended July 31, 2024. Bush & Associates CPA LLC, an independent registered public accounting firm, has its principal office in Henderson, Nevada and is subject to PCAOB inspections.

 

The PCAOB is continuing to demand complete access in Mainland China and Hong Kong moving forward and is already making plans to resume regular inspections in early 2023 and beyond, as well as to continue pursuing ongoing investigations and initiate new investigations as needed. The PCAOB has indicated that it will act immediately to consider the need to issue new determinations with the HFCA Act if needed. If the PCAOB in the future again determines that it is unable to inspect and investigate completely auditors in Mainland China and Hong Kong, then the companies audited by those auditors would be subject to a trading prohibition on U.S. markets pursuant to the HFCA Act and/or the AHFCAA. These recent developments could also add uncertainties to this Underwritten Offering, and we cannot assure you that the NASDAQ Capital Market or regulatory authorities would not apply additional or more stringent criteria to us after considering the effectiveness of our auditor’s audit procedures and quality control procedures, adequacy of personnel and training, or sufficiency of resources, geographic reach or experience as it relates to the audit of our financial statements.

 

Increases in labor costs in Hong Kong and non-compliance with laws and regulations relating to employment and labor protection may adversely affect the business of Roshing and our results of operations.

 

The economy in Hong Kong has experienced increases in inflation and labor costs in recent years. As a result, average wages in Hong Kong are expected to continue to increase. We expect that Roshing’s labor costs, including wages and employee benefits, will continue to increase. Unless Roshing is able to control its labor costs or pass on these increased labor costs to its customers by increasing service fees, our financial condition and operating results may be adversely affected.

 

 

 

 33 

 

 

In addition, where Roshing employs any employees, it is required by Hong Kong laws and regulations to maintain various statutory employee benefits, including mandatory provident fund scheme and work-related injury insurance, to provide statutorily required paid sick leave, annual leave and maternity leave, and make severance payments or long service payments. See “Regulations — Regulations Related to our Business Operation in Hong Kong — Regulations related to employment and labor protection” for details. The relevant government agencies may examine whether an employer has complied with such requirements, and those employers who fail to comply commit a criminal offence and may be subject to fines and/or imprisonment. For example, under the Employees’ Compensation Ordinance (Chapter 282 of the Laws of Hong Kong), an employer who fails to comply with the ordinance to secure an insurance cover commits an offence and is liable on conviction upon indictment to a maximum fine of HK$100,000 (approximately US$13,000) and imprisonment for two years. Under the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance (Chapter 485 of the Laws of Hong Kong), an employer who, without reasonable excuse, fails to enroll employees in an MPF scheme pursuant to the ordinance commits an offence and is liable on conviction to a fine of HK$350,000 (approximately US$45,000) and to imprisonment for three years. Therefore, failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations concerning employment and labor protection by Roshing may result in material and adverse effect on Roshing’s business, our financial condition and operating results. As of the date of this prospectus, we believe that Roshing is in compliance with applicable Hong Kong laws and regulations concerning employment and labor protection in all material respects.  

 

You may incur additional costs and procedural obstacles in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions in Hong Kong against us or its management named in the prospectus based on Hong Kong laws.

 

Currently, all of our operations are conducted outside the United States, and all of our assets are located outside the United States. Some of our directors and officers are Hong Kong nationals or residents. You may incur additional costs and procedural obstacles in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions in Hong Kong against us or its management named in the prospectus. If you want to enforce a judgment of the United States in Hong Kong, it must be a final judgment conclusive upon the merits of the claim, for a liquidated amount in a civil matter and not in respect of taxes, fines, penalties, or similar charges, the proceedings in which the judgment was obtained were not contrary to natural justice, and the enforcement of the judgment is not contrary to public policy of Hong Kong. Such a judgment must be for a fixed sum and must also come from a “competent” court as determined by the private international law rules applied by the Hong Kong courts.

 

While we believe that we and our subsidiaries are currently not required to obtain permissions or approvals from Mainland China authorities for our business operations and/or the listing and offering of our securities, and it is very unlikely that we or our subsidiaries will be required to do so in the future, we cannot assure you that we or our subsidiaries will be able to obtain all such permissions or approvals if they are nevertheless required.

 

The Regulations on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Companies by Foreign Investors (the “M&A Rules”), adopted by six PRC regulatory agencies in 2006 and amended in 2009, requires an overseas special purpose vehicle formed for listing purposes through acquisitions of PRC domestic companies and controlled by PRC companies or individuals to obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to the listing and trading of such special purpose vehicle’s securities on an overseas stock exchange.

 

We are also aware that recently, the PRC government initiated a series of regulatory actions and statements to regulate business operations in certain areas in mainland China with little advance notice, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, enhancing supervision over mainland-China-based companies listed overseas using variable interest entity structure, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding the efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. For example, on July 6, 2021, the General Office of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued a document to crack down on illegal activities in the securities market and promote the high-quality development of the capital market, which, among other things, requires the relevant governmental authorities to strengthen cross-border oversight of law-enforcement and judicial cooperation, to enhance supervision over mainland-China-based companies listed overseas, and to establish and improve the system of extraterritorial application of the PRC securities laws.

On December 28, 2021, the CAC and other PRC authorities promulgated the Cybersecurity Review Measures, which took effect on February 15, 2022. In addition, the Cybersecurity Law, which was adopted by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress on November 7, 2016 and came into force on June 1, 2017, and the Cybersecurity Review Measures, provide that personal information and important data collected and generated by a critical information infrastructure operator, or the CIIO, in the course of its operations in Mainland China must be stored in Mainland China, and if a critical information infrastructure operator purchases internet products and services that affect or may affect national security, it should be subject to national security review by the CAC together with competent departments of the State Council. In addition, for CIIOs that purchase network-related products and services, the CIIOs shall declare any network-related product or service that affects or may affect national security to the Office of Cybersecurity Review of the CAC for cybersecurity review. Due to the lack of further interpretations, the exact scope of what constitutes a “CIIO” remains unclear. Further, the PRC government authorities may have wide discretion in the interpretation and enforcement of these laws. In addition, the Cybersecurity Review Measures stipulates that any online platform operators holding more than one million users/users’ individual information shall be subject to cybersecurity review before listing abroad. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not received any notice from any authorities identifying us as a CIIO or requiring us to undertake a cybersecurity review by the CAC. Further, as of the date of this prospectus, we have not been subject to any penalties, fines, suspensions, investigations from any competent authorities for violation of the regulations or policies that have been issued by the CAC.

 

On June 10, 2021, the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress promulgated the Data Security Law, which took effect on September 1, 2021. The Data Security Law requires that data shall not be collected by theft or other illegal means, and it also provides for a data classification and hierarchical protection system. The data classification and hierarchical protection system protects data according to its importance in economic and social development, and the damages it may cause to national security, public interests, or the legitimate rights and interests of individuals and organizations if the data is falsified, damaged, disclosed, illegally obtained or illegally used, which protection system is expected to be built by the state for data security in the near future. On November 14, 2021, the CAC published the Regulations on the Data Security Administration Draft, or the Data Security Regulations Draft, to solicit public opinion and comments. Under the Data Security Regulations Draft, an overseas initial public offering to be conducted by a data processor processing the personal information of more than one million individuals shall apply for a cybersecurity review. Data processor means an individual or organization that independently makes decisions on the purpose and manner of processing in data processing activities, and data processing activities refers to activities such as the collection, retention, use, processing, transmission, provision, disclosure, or deletion of data. Currently we do not expect the Cybersecurity Review Measures to have an impact on the business and operations of our Hong Kong operating subsidiary, Roshing, or this offering, because (i) Roshing is incorporated and primarily operating in Hong Kong without any subsidiary or VIE structure in Mainland China; and (ii) as of the date of this prospectus, Roshing has not been informed by any PRC governmental authority of any requirement that it file for a cybersecurity review for the offering. Based on laws and regulations currently in effect in the PRC as of the date of this prospectus, we believe Roshing is not required to pass the cybersecurity review of the CAC in order to list our common stock in the U.S.

 

In addition, on December 24, 2021, the CSRC issued the Administrative Provisions of the State Council Regarding the Overseas Issuance and Listing of Securities by Domestic Enterprises (the “Draft Administrative Provisions”) and the Measures for the Overseas Issuance of Securities and Listing Record-Filings by Domestic Enterprises (Draft for Comments) (the “Draft Filing Measures”), collectively, the Draft Rules Regarding Overseas Listings. The Draft Rules Regarding Overseas Listing aim to lay out the filing regulation arrangement for both direct and indirect overseas listing and clarify the determination criteria for indirect overseas listing in overseas markets. According to the Draft Rules Regarding Overseas Listings, among other things, after making initial applications with overseas stock markets for initial public offerings or listings, all Mainland-China-based companies shall file with the CSRC within three working days.

 

On February 17, 2023, the CSRC promulgated the Trial Administrative Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (the “Trial Measures”), which took effect on March 31, 2023. Compared to the Draft Filing Measures, the Trial Measures further clarified and emphasized that the comprehensive determination of the “indirect overseas offering and listing by PRC domestic companies” shall comply with the principle of “substance over form” and particularly, an issuer will be required to go through the filing procedures under the Trial Measures if the following criteria are met at the same time: a) 50% or more of the issuer’s operating revenue, total profits, total assets or net assets as documented in its audited consolidated financial statements for the most recent accounting year are accounted for by PRC domestic companies, and b) the main parts of the issuer’s business activities are conducted in Mainland China, or its main places of business are located in Mainland China, or the majority of senior managers in charge of its business operation and management are Chinese citizens or domiciled in mainland China. Furthermore, the Trial Measures and its supporting guidelines provide a negative list of types of issuers banned from listing overseas, the issuers’ obligation to comply with national security measures and the personal data protection laws, and certain other matters such as the requirements that an issuer (i) file with the CSRC within three business days after it submits an application for initial public offering to the competent overseas regulator and (ii) file subsequent reports with the CSRC on material events, including change of control and voluntary or forced delisting, after its overseas offering and listing.

 

 

 

 35 

 

 

As the Trial Measures are newly issued, there remains uncertainty as to how it will be interpreted or implemented. Therefore, we cannot assure you that when the Company is subject to such filing requirements, we will be able to get clearance from the CSRC in a timely manner, or at all, even though we believe that none of the situations that would clearly prohibit overseas listing and offering applies to us. Based on laws and regulations currently in effect in the PRC as of the date of this prospectus, we believe we are not required to obtain regulatory approval from the CSRC or go through the filing procedures under the Trial Measures before our common stock can be listed or offered in the U.S. because a) we do not, directly or indirectly, own or control any entity or subsidiary in Mainland China, and b) none of our business activities are conducted in Mainland China, and our main places of business are not located in Mainland China, and the majority of senior managers in charge of our business operation and management are Hong Kong citizens and domiciled in Hong Kong.

 

Since these proposed rules, statements and regulatory actions are new, it is highly uncertain how soon the legislative or administrative regulation making bodies will respond and what existing or new laws or regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations will be modified or promulgated, if any. Any failure of us to fully comply with new regulatory requirements may significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer common stock, cause significant disruption to our business operations, severely damage our reputation, materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, and cause the common stock to significantly decline in value or become worthless.

 

In the opinion of our PRC counsel, Jiangsu Junjin Law Firm, as of the date of this prospectus, on the basis that (i) we are a Nevada company and our only operating subsidiary, Roshing, is a Hong Kong company and is headquartered in Hong Kong, neither entity has operations in Mainland China; (ii) we do not, directly or indirectly, own or control any entity or subsidiary in Mainland China, nor are us controlled by any Mainland Chinese company or individual directly or indirectly; (iii) we currently do not have or intend to set up any subsidiary or enter into any contractual arrangements to establish a VIE structure with any entity in Mainland China; (iv) only few of Roshing’s customers are Mainland China residents, which contributed 5.2% and 0.4% of our revenue for the year ended July 31, 2023 and the year ended July 31, 2024, respectively and there are no customers from Mainland China for the three months ended October 31, 2024; (v) the majority of our senior managers in charge of the Company’s business operation and management are Hong Kong nationals and domiciled in Hong Kong; and (vi) all of Roshing’s employees are Hong Kong residents, we and our subsidiaries are not required to obtain any permissions or approvals from the Mainland China authorities for consummating this offering, including but not limited to the CSRC, to operate Roshing’s business or to list our securities on the U.S. exchanges and offer securities, including but not limited to issuing our common stock to foreign investors. We and our subsidiaries have not applied for, or been denied of any such permissions or approvals from the authorities of Mainland China. In addition, in the opinion of our PRC counsel, Jiangsu Junjin Law Firm, as of the date of this prospectus, we are not subject to the cybersecurity review by the CAC over data security and our offering because we are not a Nevada company and our only operating subsidiary is a Hong Kong company, and neither entity has operations in Mainland China.

 

Further, we expect that we and our subsidiaries’ operations will continue to be conducted in Hong Kong, as is the case as of the date of this prospectus. Therefore, we believe that the chance that we and our subsidiaries will be required to obtain any permissions or approvals from the governmental authorities of Mainland China for our operations, or the listing of our securities on the U.S. exchanges and the offering of our securities in the future is very remote. If (i) we and our subsidiaries do not receive or maintain such permissions or approvals, should such approvals be required in the future by the PRC government, (ii) we and our subsidiaries inadvertently conclude that such permissions or approvals are not required, or (iii) applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change and we are required to obtain such permissions or approvals in the future, our operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected, and our ability to offer securities to investors could be significantly limited or completely hindered and the securities currently being offered may substantially decline in value and become worthless. Consequently, our operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected, and our ability to offer securities to investors could be significantly limited or completely hindered and the securities currently being offered may substantially decline in value and become worthless.

 

Since these statements and regulatory actions are new, it is highly uncertain how soon the legislative or administrative regulation making bodies will respond and what existing or new laws or regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations will be modified or promulgated, if any. It is also highly uncertain what potential impact such modified or new laws and regulations will have on our daily business operations, its ability to accept foreign investments and the listing of our common stock on a U.S. or other foreign exchanges. If there is significant change to current political arrangements between Mainland China and Hong Kong, the PRC government intervenes or influences operations of companies operated in Hong Kong like us, or exerts more control through change of laws and regulations over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in issuers like us, it may result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of the securities we are registering for sale or could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of our common stock to significantly decline or become worthless.

In addition, the SEC has issued statements primarily focused on companies with significant China-based operations. For example, on July 30, 2021, Gary Gensler, Chairman of the SEC, issued a Statement on Investor Protection Related to Recent Developments in China, pursuant to which Chairman Gensler stated that he has asked the SEC staff to engage in targeted additional reviews of filings for companies with significant China-based operations. The statement also addressed risks inherent in companies with a VIE structure. However, (1) we do not have a VIE structure and are not in an industry that is subject to foreign ownership limitations by China; and (2) neither us nor our only operating subsidiary, Roshing, has operations in Mainland China.

 

Risks Related to Taxation

 

Non-compliance with tax obligations may adversely affect our business and operation results.

 

On June 5, 2023, the United States Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) issued a notice letter imposing penalties for failure to provide information concerning certain foreign-owned U.S. Corporations for the tax period ending July 31, 2021, totaling $25,000. We promptly submitted a request for penalty abatement within 30 days of receiving the notice, asserting that the late filing was not due to willful neglect. However, as of now, we have not received any final decision from the IRS regarding their intended course of action. The total amount due now stands at $26,426.55, inclusive of accrued interest and penalties calculated up to February 26, 2022. On April 25, 2024, the Company paid the total amount of $26,854.68 to IRS by check.

 

On March 11, 2024, the Company received a new notice letter with the IRS issued a notice imposing penalties for failure to file form 5471 under Internal Revenue Code Section 6038. The penalty amounts due by April 1, 2024, is $20,000. On April 22, 2024, the Company received another notice from IRS of the intent of levy the company’s property or rights to property for the Company’s failure to pay the penalty. The total penalty due now stands at $20,184.43, inclusive of accrued interest and penalties calculated up to April 22, 2024. On April 22, 2024, we promptly submitted a request for penalty abatement within 30 days of receiving the notice, asserting that the late filing was not due to willful neglect.

 

On May 10, 2024, the company paid $20,184.43 by check to IRS for the tax period ending July 31, 2023.

 

All late filings were due to two main factors: a) the impact of the epidemic, resulting in our failure to report in a timely manner and subsequent payment of fines. We have settled the fines, but we require details regarding the date, amount, and reasons for any new penalties arising from delayed tax payments. b) The change of ownership in August 2021 led to numerous unresolved matters, compounded by various obstacles encountered during the pandemic.

 

Up to May 10, 2024, we have successfully filed tax returns for the years 2020 to 2022 and have duly remitted the two fines along with accrued interest via check. The amount owed, encompassing principal and interest, was ascertained and settled upon the submission of the prospectus. In our future operations, we will aim to pay taxes on time and as required. However, we cannot guarantee that the Company won’t make tax payment errors in the future, which could affect our operations.

 

A change in tax laws in any country in which we operate or loss of a major tax dispute or a successful tax challenge to our operating structure, intercompany pricing policies or the taxable presence of our subsidiaries in certain countries could adversely affect us.

 

Tax laws, treaties and regulations are highly complex and subject to interpretation. Consequently, we and our subsidiaries are subject to changing laws, treaties and regulations in and between the countries in which we operate. Our tax expense is based on our interpretation of the tax laws in effect at the time the expense was incurred. A change in tax laws, treaties or regulations, or in the interpretation thereof, could result in a materially higher tax expense or a higher effective tax rate on our earnings.

 

In addition, if any tax authority successfully challenges positions we may take in tax filings, our operational structure, intercompany pricing policies, the taxable presence of our subsidiaries in certain countries or any other situation, or if the terms of certain income tax treaties are interpreted in a manner that is adverse to our structure, or if we lose a material tax dispute in any country, our effective tax rate on our worldwide earnings could increase substantially and our earnings and cash flows from operations could be materially adversely affected.

An investment in this Underwritten Offering may involve adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.

 

An investment in this Underwritten Offering may involve adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences. For instance, there is a risk that an investor’s entitlement to receive payments in excess of the investor’s initial tax basis in our common stock upon exercise of the investor’s conversion right or upon our liquidation of the trust account will result in constructive income to the investor, which could affect the timing and character of income recognition and result in U.S. federal income tax liability to the investor without the investor’s receipt of cash from us. We have also not sought a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, as to any U.S. federal income tax consequences described in this prospectus. The IRS may disagree with the descriptions of U.S. federal income tax consequences described herein, and its determination may be upheld by a court. Any such determination could subject an investor or our company to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences that would be different than those described in this prospectus. Accordingly, each prospective investor is urged to consult a tax advisor with respect to the specific tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our securities, including the applicability and effect of state, local, or foreign tax laws, as well as U.S. federal tax laws.

 

Risks Related to Our Common Stock and this Underwritten Offering

 

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink Market, which may have an unfavorable impact on our stock price and liquidity.

 

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink Market. The quotation of our shares on the OTC Pink Market may result in a less liquid market available for existing and potential stockholders to trade shares of our common stock, could depress the trading price of our common stock and could have a long-term adverse impact on our ability to raise capital in the future. When fewer shares of a security are being traded on the OTC Pink Market, volatility of prices may increase and price movement may outpace the ability to deliver accurate quote information. Due to lower trading volumes in shares of our common stock, there may be a lower likelihood that orders for shares of our common stock will be executed, and current prices may differ significantly from the price that was quoted at the time of entry of the order.

 

There can be no assurances that an active trading market may develop for our common stock, or if developed, be maintained.

 

We have applied to list our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. No assurance can be given that our application will be approved or that the trading prices of our common stock on the OTC Pink Market will be indicative of the prices of our common stock if our common stock were traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If our application is not approved, the Underwritten Offering will not be completed. This offering is contingent upon final approval of the listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

 

Our common stock has traded on the OTC Pink Market since February 9, 2022. The average trading volume in our common stock has been historically low, with little or no trading at all on some days. As a result, an investor may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our common stock. Accordingly, investors must assume they may have to bear the economic risk of an investment in our common stock for an indefinite period of time. There can be no assurance that a more active market for the common stock will develop, or if one should develop, there is no assurance that it will be maintained. This severely limits the liquidity of our common stock and would likely have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock and on our ability to raise additional capital.

 

An active, liquid, and orderly market for our common stock may not develop.

 

Our common stock is expected to trade on Nasdaq Capital Market a day after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. The trading market for our common stock will depend in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. Several analysts may cover our stock. If one or more of those analysts downgrade our stock or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our stock price would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of our Company or fail to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our stock could decrease, which might cause our stock price and trading volume to decline. An active trading market for our common stock may never develop or be sustained. If an active market for our common stock does not continue to develop or is not sustained, it may be difficult for investors to sell their shares of common stock without depressing the market price and investors may not be able to sell their securities at all. An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling our securities and may impair our ability to acquire other businesses, applications, or technologies using our securities as consideration, which, in turn, could materially adversely affect our business and the market prices of your shares of common stock.

Our common stock is subject to the “penny stock” rules of the SEC and the trading market in the securities is limited, which makes transactions in the stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in the stock.

 

The SEC has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

 

  · that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and
     
  · the broker or dealer receives from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

 

In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:

 

  · obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and
     
  · make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

 

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form sets forth:

 

  · the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
     
  · that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

 

Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of common stock and cause a decline in the market value of stock.

 

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered underwriter, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

 

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our common stock.

 

In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, the FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our common stock and have an adverse effect on the market for shares of our common stock.

Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create a new series of preferred stock without further approval by our Stockholders, which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.

 

Our board of directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our board of directors has the authority to issue up to 80,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 20,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock. The Board of Directors has the authority, without stockholder approval, to amend the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to divide the class of undesignated Preferred Stock into series, and to determine the relative rights and preferences of the shares of each series, including (i) voting power, (ii) the rate of dividend, (iii) the price at which, and the terms and conditions on which, the shares may be redeemed, (iv) the amount payable upon the shares in the event of liquidation, (v) any sinking fund provision for the redemption or purchase of the shares, and (vi) the terms and conditions on which the shares may be converted to shares of another series or class, if the shares of any series are issued with the privilege of conversion, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing Stockholders.

 

On January 27, 2023, Tianci sold 80,000 shares of its Series A Preferred Stock to RQS Capital for $24,000 cash. On January 19, 2024, the Company issued 8,000,000 shares of its common stock to RQS Capital. The shares were issued upon RQS Capital’s exercise of its right to convert 80,000 shares of Tianci’s Series A Preferred Stock into 8,000,000 shares of common stock.

 

On April 24, 2024, Tianci sold 80,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock to RQS Capital. The shares were sold for a cash payment of $80,000. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock may be converted by the holder of the share into 100 shares of common stock, subject to equitable adjustment of the conversion rate. As of the date of the prospectus, none of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock have been converted, and RQS Capital does not intend to convert its shares of Series B Preferred Stock into shares of common stock before the closing of this offering; however, the shares of Series B Preferred Stock may be converted into shares of common stock at any time at the option of RQS Capital.

 

Although we have no present intention to issue any additional shares of preferred stock or to create any additional series of preferred stock, we may issue such shares in the future.

 

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 outside of the United States 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;
  · detrimental adverse publicity about us, our brand, our services or our industry;
  · additions or departures of key personnel; 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, stockholders 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.

Short sellers of our stock may be manipulative and may drive down the market price of our common stock.

 

Short selling is the practice of selling securities that the seller does not own but rather has borrowed or intends to borrow from a third party with the intention of buying identical securities at a later date to return them to the lender. A short seller hopes to profit from a decline in the value of the securities between the sale of the borrowed securities and the purchase of the replacement shares, as the short seller expects to pay less in that purchase than it received in the sale. As it is therefore in the short seller’s interest for the price of the stock to decline, some short sellers publish, or arrange for the publication of, opinions or characterizations regarding the relevant issuer, its business prospects and similar matters calculated to or which may create negative market momentum, which may permit them to obtain profits for themselves as a result of selling the stock short. Issuers whose securities have historically had limited trading volumes and/or have been susceptible to relatively high volatility levels can be particularly vulnerable to such short seller attacks.

 

The publication of any such commentary regarding us by a short seller may bring about a temporary, or possibly long term, decline in the market price of our common stock. No assurances can be made that we will not become a target of such commentary and declines in the market price of our common stock will not occur in the future, in connection with such commentary by short sellers or otherwise.

 

We have considerable discretion as to the use of the net proceeds from this Underwritten Offering and we may use these proceeds in ways with which you may not agree.

 

We intend to use the proceeds from this Underwritten Offering primarily to enhance and expand our business operations and for general corporate purposes. However, we have considerable discretion in the application of the proceeds. You will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. You must rely on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the net proceeds of this Underwritten Offering. The net proceeds may be used for corporate or other purposes with which you do not agree or that do not improve our profitability or increase our share price. The net proceeds from this Underwritten Offering may also be placed in investments that do not produce income or that lose value.

 

Our expected use of net proceeds from the Underwritten Offering represents our current intentions based upon our present plans and business condition. As of the date of this prospectus, we cannot predict with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to be received upon the completion of the Underwritten Offering. The amounts and timing of our actual use of the net proceeds will vary depending on numerous factors, including the amount of cash used in our operations, which can be highly uncertain, subject to substantial risks and can often change. Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds, and investors will be relying on our judgment regarding the application of the net proceeds of the Underwritten Offering.

 

The sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of our common stock could adversely affect their market price.

 

Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and could materially impair our ability to raise capital through equity offerings in the future. Shares held by our existing stockholders may be sold in the public market in the future subject to the restrictions in Rule 144 and Rule 701 under the Securities. As of October 31, 2024 and the date of this prospectus, we have 14,781,803 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. We cannot predict what effect, if any, market sales of securities held by our significant stockholders or any other stockholder or the availability of these securities for future sale will have on the market price of our common stock.

 

As we do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future, you must rely on a price appreciation of our common stock for return on your investment.

 

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.

Our CEO beneficially owns the majority of our outstanding stock and, accordingly, will have control over stockholder matters, the Company’s business and management.

 

Shufang Gao, the Chief Executive Officer of Tianci, through his 60% holding in RQS Capital, which has 61.89% of the voting power, together with common stock owned by himself, controls securities with 62.11% of the voting power in Tianci. As a result, Mr. Gao will have the ability to:

 

  · Elect or defeat the election of our directors;
     
  · Amend or prevent amendment of our articles of incorporation or bylaws;
     
  · Effect or prevent a merger, sale of assets or other corporate transaction; and
     
  · Affect the outcome of any other matter submitted to the Stockholders for vote.

 

Moreover, because of the significant ownership position held by Mr. Gao, new investors will not be able to effect a change in the Company’s business or management, and therefore, stockholders would be subject to decisions made by management and the majority stockholder.

 

In addition, Management’s stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our Stockholders from realizing a premium over our stock price.

 

The sale of securities by us in any equity or debt financing could result in dilution to our existing Stockholders.

 

Our Board of Directors is authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock, up to 80,000 shares of Series A Preferred stock, up to 80,000 shares of Series B Preferred stock, and up to 19,920,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock. Of which approximately 103,048,197 shares will remain available for issuance after the Underwritten Offering, including (i) awards reserved for issuance under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan; (ii) shares issuable upon the exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option. Our Board of Directors will continue to have the authority to issue additional shares of common stock without consent of any of our stockholders, unless stockholder’s approval is required under law or, if our common stock is listed on Nasdaq, under Nasdaq Rule 5635, which among other things, requires stockholder approval for change of control transactions where a stockholder acquires 20% of a Nasdaq-listed company’s common stock or securities convertible into common stock, calculated on a post-transaction basis. If our management determines to issue shares of our common stock from the large pool of authorized but unissued shares for any purpose in the future and is not required to obtain stockholder approval, your ownership position would be diluted without your further ability to vote on that transaction. In addition, our Articles of Incorporation provide that the Board can designate the voting rights, liquidation rights, dividend rights and other rights of holders of the preferred stock. The Board, therefore, could use the Preferred Stock to give an investor group disproportionate voting rights or priority over the common stock in the allocation of benefits from the operations of Roshing, including preferential dividends. The Board could also use the Preferred Stock to create a poison pill to prevent a takeover of Tianci that might be considered beneficial by the common stockholders.

 

Any sale of common stock by us in a future private placement offering could result in dilution to the existing Stockholders as a direct result of our issuance of additional shares of our capital stock. In addition, our business strategy may include expansion through internal growth by acquiring complementary businesses, acquiring, or establishing strategic relationships with targeted customers and suppliers. In order to do so, or to finance the cost of our other activities, we may issue additional equity securities that could dilute our Stockholders’ stock ownership. We may also assume additional debt and incur impairment losses related to goodwill and other tangible assets, and this could negatively impact our earnings and results of operations.

If you purchase our common stock in this offering, you will incur immediate and substantial dilution in the book value of your shares.

 

Investors purchasing our common stock in this offering will pay a price per share that substantially exceeds the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share. As a result, investors purchasing shares in this offering will incur immediate dilution of $3.95 per share, representing the difference between our assumed public offering price of $4.50 per share (the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus) and our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value of $0.55 per share as of October 31, 2024. For more information on the dilution you may experience as a result of investing in this offering, see “Dilution.

 

A significant portion of our shares of common stock are restricted from immediate resale but may be sold into the market in the near future. This could cause the market price of our common stock to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.

 

The sales of a substantial number of our shares of common stock in the public market could occur at any time. These sales, or the perception in the market that these sales may occur, could result in a decrease in the market price of our common stock. Immediately after this offering, we will have 16,951,803 outstanding shares of common stock, based on the number of 14,781,803 shares of common stock outstanding as of October 31, 2024 and as of the date of the prospectus, assuming no exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option. This includes the shares that we are selling in this offering, which may be resold in the public market immediately without restriction, unless purchased by our affiliates or existing stockholders. Of that amount, 14,529,788 shares of common stock are currently restricted as a result of securities laws and/or lock-up agreements but will be able to be sold after the closing of this offering, subject to securities laws and/or lock-up agreements. If held by one of our affiliates, the resale of those securities will be subject to volume limitations under Rule 144 of the Securities Act. See “Shares Eligible for Future Sale.

 

If our common stock is listed on Nasdaq, we may not be able to satisfy the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq to maintain a listing of our common stock.

 

If our common stock is listed on Nasdaq, we must meet certain financial and liquidity criteria to maintain such listing. If we violate the maintenance requirements for continued listing of our common stock, our common stock may be delisted. In addition, our Board may determine that the cost of maintaining our listing on a national securities exchange outweighs the benefits of such listing. A delisting of our common stock from Nasdaq may materially impair our Stockholders’ ability to buy and sell our common stock and could have an adverse effect on the market price of, and the efficiency of the trading market for, our common stock. In addition, the delisting of our common stock could significantly impair our ability to raise capital. In addition, if we are unable to uplist our common stock to Nasdaq, our common stock will continue to trade on the OTC Pink Market, which is generally considered less liquid and more volatile than the Nasdaq Capital Market.

 

We may require additional capital to support growth, and such capital might not be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. This could hamper our growth and adversely affect our business.

 

We intend to continue to make investments to support our business growth and may require additional funds, beyond those generated by the offering, to respond to business challenges, including the need to enhance our products and services, improve our operating infrastructure or acquire complementary businesses and technologies. Accordingly, we may need to engage in public or private equity, equity-linked or debt financing to secure additional funds. If we raise additional funds through future issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock. Any debt financing that we secure in the future could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, including the ability to pay dividends. This may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to support our business growth and respond to business challenges could be significantly impaired, and our business could be adversely affected.

A CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements which relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “should”, “expects”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “predicts”, “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks in the section entitled “Risk Factors,” that may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

 

While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested herein. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

 

In addition to these assumptions and matters discussed elsewhere herein, important factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include the following:

 

·future general dry bulk shipping market conditions, including fluctuations in charter rates;
·our future operating or financial results;
·our ability to procure or have access to financing, our liquidity and the adequacy of cash flows for our operations;
·changes in our operating expenses, including bunker prices, dry docking and insurance costs;
·our ability to meet requirements for additional capital and financing to grow our business;
·planned or pending acquisitions, business strategy and expected capital spending or operating expenses, including dry-docking, surveys, upgrades and insurance costs;
·changes in governmental rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory authorities;
·our expectations regarding the availability of vessel acquisitions and our ability to complete acquisition transactions as planned;
·potential conflicts of interest involving members of our board of directors, or the Board, and senior management;
·potential liability from pending or future litigation;
·potential exposure or loss from investment in derivative instruments;
·forecasts of our ability to make cash distributions on our common units or any increases in our cash distributions;
·our ability to make additional borrowings and to access debt and equity markets;
·the strength of world economies;
·fluctuations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates;
·changes in seaborne and other transportation;
·general domestic and international political conditions;
·our business strategy and other plans and objectives for future operations;
·termination dates and extensions of charters; and
·potential disruption of shipping routes due to accidents or political events.

 

Any forward-looking statements contained herein are made only as of the date of this prospectus, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all or any of these factors. Further, we cannot assess the impact of each such factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to be materially different from those contained in any forward-looking statement.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We estimate that we will receive net proceeds from this Underwritten Offering of approximately $8.7 million, or approximately $10.0 million if the lead underwriter exercises its option to purchase additional shares in full, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance, and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

 

Each $1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed public offering price of $4.50 per share (the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus) would increase (decrease) the net proceeds to us from the Underwritten Offering by $1,996,400, assuming that the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance and estimated offering expenses payable by us. An increase (decrease) of 1.0 million in the number of shares we are offering would increase (decrease) the net proceeds to us from the Underwritten Offering by $4,140,000, assuming the assumed public offering price remains the same, and after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance, and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

 

We plan to use the net proceeds of this Underwritten Offering as follows:

 

    Amount     Percent  
USE OF PROCEEDS                
Logistics promotion and marketing   $ 3,483,055       40%  
Working capital and general corporate purposes     3,483,055       40%  
Recruitment of talented personnel     1,741,528       20%  
                 
TOTAL APPLICATION OF NET PROCEEDS   $ 8,707,638       100.00%  

  

The foregoing represents our current intention to use and allocate the net proceeds of the Underwritten Offering based upon our present plans and business conditions. The actual allocation of proceeds realized from the Underwritten Offering will depend upon our operating revenues and cash position and our working capital requirements and may change.

 

Our management, however, will have broad discretion in the way that we use the net proceeds of the Underwritten Offering. Pending the final application of the net proceeds of the Underwritten Offering, we intend to use the net proceeds of the Underwritten Offering primarily to enhance and expand our business operations and for general corporate purposes. SeeRisk Factors—Risks Related to Our Common Stock— We have considerable discretion as to the use of the net proceeds from this Underwritten Offering and we may use these proceeds in ways with which you may not agree.” on page 41.

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

We do not anticipate declaring or paying, in the foreseeable future, any cash dividends on our capital stock. We intend to retain all available funds and future earnings, if any, to fund the development and expansion of our business.

(1)On an actual basis; and
(2)on a pro forma as-adjusted basis, to give effect to the issuance and sale of 2,170,000 shares of common stock by us in the Underwritten Offering at an assumed public offering price of $4.50 per share, the midpoint of the estimated public offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance and estimated offering expenses, assuming the lead underwriter’s over-allotment option has not been exercised.

 

 

 

 46 

 

 

The pro forma as adjusted information below is illustrative only and our capitalization following the completion of the Underwritten Offering is subject to adjustment based on the public offering price of our common stock. You should read this table in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus.

 

    October 31, 2024
    Actual   Pro forma as adjusted (Over-allotment option not exercised)(1)
     
Total borrowing   $ 2,271     $ 2,271  
Series B Preferred stock, $0.0001 par value; 80,000 shares authorized; 80,000 shares issued and outstanding     8       8  
Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, 100,000,000 shares authorized; 14,781,803 shares issued and outstanding; 16,951,803 shares issued and outstanding pro forma     1,478       1,695  
Additional paid-in capital     962,416       9,669,837  
Accumulated deficit     (315,127 )     (315,127 )
Total stockholders’ equity attributable to the Company     648,775       9,356,413  
Total capitalization   $ 651,046     $ 9,358,684  

 

(1)  Reflects the sale of shares of common stock in the Underwritten Offering at an assumed public offering price of $4.50 per share (the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus), and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance, and estimated offering expenses payable by us, assuming the lead underwriter’s over-allotment option has not been exercised. Additional paid-in capital reflects the net proceeds we expect to receive, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance, and estimated incremental offering expenses payable by us. We estimate that such net proceeds will be approximately $8,707,638 assuming the lead underwriter has not exercised the over-allotment option. The as adjusted total stockholders’ equity of $9,356,413 is the sum of the net proceeds of $8,707,638 and the actual equity of $648,775.

 

Each $1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed public offering price of $4.50 per share (the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus) would increase (decrease) the pro forma as adjusted amount of total capitalization by $1,996,400, assuming that the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance and estimated offering expenses payable by us. An increase (decrease) of 1.0 million in the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, would increase (decrease) the pro forma as adjusted amount of total capitalization by $4,140,000, assuming no change in the assumed public offering price per share as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus.

DILUTION

 

If you invest in our common stock, your interest will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share you will pay in this Underwritten Offering and the adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock after this Underwritten Offering.

 

The historical net tangible book value of our common stock as of October 31, 2024 was approximately $648,775, or $0.04 per share, based upon 14,781,803 shares of common stock outstanding on such date. Historical net tangible book value per share represents the amount of our total tangible assets reduced by the amount of our total liabilities, divided by the total number of shares of common stock outstanding.

 

After giving effect to the Underwritten Offering, our adjusted net tangible book value of our common stock will be $0.55 per share. Adjusted net tangible book value per share represents adjusted net tangible book value divided by the total number of shares outstanding after giving effect to the sale of the shares in this Underwritten Offering at the assumed public offering price of $4.50 per share (the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus), after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance, and other estimated offering expenses payable by us. This represents an immediate increase in as adjusted net tangible book value of $0.51 per share to existing Stockholders and an immediate dilution of $3.95 per share to investors purchasing shares of common stock in the Underwritten Offering at the assumed public offering price.

 

The following table illustrates this dilution on a per share basis to new investors:

 

Assumed public offering price per share   $ 4.50  
Pro forma net tangible book value per share as of October 31, 2024   $ 0.04  
Increase in net tangible book value per share attributable to this Underwritten Offering   $ 0.51  
As adjusted net tangible book value per share after giving effect to this Underwritten Offering   $ 0.55  
Dilution in net tangible book value per share to purchasers in this Underwritten Offering   $ 3.95  

 

Each $1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed public offering price of $4.50 per share (the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus) would increase (decrease) our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of October 31, 2024 after the Underwritten Offering by approximately $0.12 per ordinary, and would increase (decrease) dilution to new investors by $0.88 per share, assuming that the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance and estimated offering expenses payable by us. An increase (decrease) of 1.0 million shares in the number of shares we are offering would increase (decrease) our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of after the Underwritten Offering by approximately $0.20 per share, and would increase (decrease) dilution to new investors by approximately $0.20 per share, assuming the assumed public offering price per share, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus remains the same, and after deducting the estimate underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance and estimated incremental offering expenses payable by us. The pro forma as adjusted information is illustrative only, and we will adjust this information based on the actual public offering price and other terms of the Underwritten Offering determined at pricing.

 

If the lead underwriter’s over-allotment option is exercised in full, our adjusted net tangible book value following the Underwritten Offering will be $0.62 per share, and the dilution to investors purchasing shares of common stock in the Underwritten Offering will be $3.88 per share.

Overview

 

On March 3, 2023, we acquired ownership of RQS United Group Limited, a company organized under the laws of the Republic of Seychelles (“RQS United”), pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement dated March 3, 2023 among the Company, RQS United and RQS Capital Limited, the prior owner of RQS United.

 

RQS United is a holding company incorporated in the Republic of Seychelles. RQS United has no operations other than holding 90% of the outstanding share capital of its subsidiary, Roshing International Co., Limited, a company organized under the laws of Hong Kong (“Roshing”). Roshing was incorporated on June 22, 2011 and is primarily engaged in logistics solutions, including shipping operation management. We also generate a small portion of our revenue from our non-core businesses that we carry on through Roshing, including software development services, consulting services, and the sale of electronic parts.

 

Our primary line of business is global logistics. The Company, through its subsidiary, Roshing, provides global logistics services, encompassing booking and the transportation arrangement and related logistics solutions. Roshing’s customized logistics solutions are tailored to meet the diverse needs of its customers.

 

For the container shipping service, Roshing charters cargo space from shipping suppliers (such as shipowners, ship carrier or non-vessel operating common carriers) and then sub-charters that space to its customers (cargo owners or cargo agents). For the bulk goods shipping service, Roshing issues fixture notes to customers, and then arranges the booking of ships, and signs chartering contracts with suppliers (such as shipowners). Roshing also tailors the selection of transport options, and arranges to transport the goods from the port of loading to the port of destination, so as to complete the performance of the contract.

 

Roshing currently does not own or operate any transportation assets. By leveraging our senior management’s expertise in the global logistics industry and adopting an asset-light strategy at the early stage, Roshing has seen a significant growth in logistics revenue since 2023. Shufang Gao, our Chief Executive Officer previously worked for a globally renowned shipping conglomerate, with over 20 years of management experience. His expertise spans shipping operation management, and logistics transportation. Leveraging this experience, he has provided the Company with the managerial framework to expand its global logistics business, as well as access to relevant customer and supplier resources in the shipping industry. Roshing’s business is primarily carried out in Hong Kong and other locations in the Asia-Pacific region, mainly in Japan, South Korea, Vietnam. Roshing’s logistics services also include the shipment of goods to African countries.

 

Roshing also generates revenue from the sale of electronic parts, and certain business and technical consulting services, independent from its global logistics business.

Key factors that affect operating results

 

Our performance of operations and financial conditions have been, and are expected to continue to be, affected by a number of factors which are set forth below.

 

Economic Conditions in Hong Kong. We are a Nevada company with operations conducted by our subsidiary Roshing, which is based in Hong Kong. Accordingly, if Hong Kong experiences any adverse economic, political or regulatory conditions due to events beyond our control, such as local economic downturn, natural disasters, contagious disease outbreaks, terrorist attacks, or if the government adopts regulations that place restrictions or burdens on us or on our industry in general, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

 

International Trade Environment. The demand for our shipping operation services is driven by the levels of international trade, which is in turn affected by global political, economic or social conditions. Any changes in a particular country’s trade policy could trigger retaliatory actions by affected countries, potentially eventually resulting in a trade war, which could increase the cost of goods and thus reduce customer demand for products if the parties have to pay tariffs which increase their prices or if trading partners limit their trade with the particular country. Our business is also susceptible to downturns and disruptions in the business activities of their direct customers that are beyond their control. If sales in a particular geographical market in which our direct customers target operate in decline, due to unstable regional and/or global political and economic conditions, such decline will likely lead to a corresponding plunge in the international trade volume which, in turn, could reduce the demand for freight forward and adversely affect our results of operations.

 

Our Ability to Source Cargo Space from Vendors on a Cost-Efficient Manner. A significant portion of our cost of revenue is the fee that we paid to our vendors. As a result, our results of operation depend on our ability to source vendors in a cost-efficient manner by obtaining a favorable price and effectively control the cost.

Revenues

 

For the three months ended October 31, 2024, our total revenue increased to $2,980,940 from $1,326,648 for the three months ended October 31, 2023. The increase was mainly attributable to the continuing growth of our global logistics service and expansion of our client base. The global logistics service contributed 93% of our total revenue for the three months ended October 31, 2024.

 

The rest of our business lines represented 7% of our revenue in this quarter. We expect our operations other than global logistics to continue to contribute a relatively small portion of our revenue in the foreseeable future.

Cost of Revenues

 

Total cost of revenues increased from $1,092,871 to $2,752,509 for the three months ended October 31, 2024. The increase was in line with the growth of our global logistics services.

 

A breakdown of our cost of revenues is summarized as follows:

 

  

For the Three Months Ended

   2024   2023 
Cost of Global Logistics Service  $2,590,865   $1,029,970

Cost of Other Services   161,644    12,893 
Total  $2,752,509   $1,092,871 

 

Our cost of revenues from global logistics services represented 94% of total cost of revenues for the three months ended October 31, 2024. Cost of global logistics services primarily includes the cargo space charged by direct ocean carriers, fees charged by freight forwarders, fees charged for ancillary logistics services, and compensation we paid to our logistics employees.

Gross Profit

 

Our gross profits and gross margin of each business line are summarized as follows:

 

   For the Three Months Ended
October 31,
 
   2024   2023 
Global Logistics Service          
Gross Profit  $168,828   $151,750 
Gross Profit Margin   6.12%    12.84% 
Hardware Product Sales          
Gross Profit  $   $9,894 
Gross Profit Margin       16.52% 
Other Services          
Gross Profit  $59,603   $72,133 
Gross Profit Margin   26.94%    84.84% 
Total          
Gross Profit  $228,431   $233,777 
Gross Profit Margin   7.66%    17.62% 

  

Our total gross profit decreased by $5,346 to $228,431 for the three months ended October 31, 2024 compared to the three months ended October 31, 2023. The decrease in gross profit was primarily attributable to decreasing gross profit from hardware product sales and other services, partially offset by a slight increase in gross profit from global logistics services. For the three months ended October 31, 2024, our total gross profit margin was 7.66%, as compared to 17.62% for the three months ended October 31, 2023. Our gross margin from our dominant business line global logistics service dropped significantly to 6.12% for the three months ended October 31, 2024 from 12.84% for the three months ended October 31, 2023. The same trend applies to our other business lines as we adopted a competitive pricing strategy to build up our client base promptly in the short term. We anticipate that our gross margin realized from logistics services will fluctuate in the short-term as the result of our pricing strategy.

 

Operating Expenses

 

As our business grew, there was a significant increase in our total operating expenses, which were $345,581 for the three months ended October 31, 2024 as compared to $220,776 for the three months ended October 31, 2023. Our operating expenses primarily include payroll expenses, commissions, marketing, rent and professional fees relating to our obligations as a public company. The increase was mainly due to the increase in general and administrative expenses from $118,705 for the three months ended October 31, 2023 to $260,363 for the three months ended October 31, 2024, partially offset by a $16,883 decrease in selling and marketing expenses in the same period. The increase in general and administrative expenses was attributable to increasing payroll expenses necessitated by the expansion of our logistics operations, as well as expenses incurred in anticipation of a securities offering as we prepare the Company to list on Nasdaq. The decrease in selling expenses during this period is attributable to decreasing commission expenses that we paid to third-parties as we became less dependent on brokers for new businesses.

Income tax expense

 

Our income tax expense amounted to $2,189 for the three months ended October 31, 2024 as compared to $19,113 for the three months ended October 31, 2023. The change was due to the decrease in operating income generated by Roshing during this period.

 

Net income (loss)

 

As a result of the foregoing, we incurred a net loss of $91,948 for the three months ended October 31, 2024. As the Company owns only 90% shares of its operating subsidiary, Roshing, 10% of the net income realized by Roshing was attributed to the minority interest. Therefore, the net loss for the three months ended October 31, 2024 attributable to the shareholders of the Company was $93,056. In comparison, during the three months ended October 31, 2023, the Company incurred a net loss of $6,112.

Revenues

 

For the year ended July 31, 2024, our total revenue increased significantly to $8,617,265 from $452,409 for the year ended July 31, 2023. The increase was mainly attributable to the launch and growth of our global logistics service, which contributed 97% of our revenue in the year ended July 31, 2024.

 

The rest of our business lines represent a relatively small percentage of our revenue in 2024. We expect this trend to continue in the foreseeable future.

Cost of Revenues

 

Total cost of revenues increased from $456,494 to $7,562,086 for the year ended July 31, 2024. The increase was in line with the growth of our global logistics services.

 

The breakdown of our cost of revenues is summarized as follows:

   For the Year Ended

Total          
Gross Profit  $1,055,179   $-4,085 
Gross Profit Margin   12.24%    -0.9% 

  

Our total gross profit increased by $1,059,264 to $1,055,179 for the year ended July 31, 2024. The increase in gross profit was primarily attributable to the launch and growth of our global logistics service, as discussed above. For the year ended July 31, 2024, our total gross profit margin was 12.24%, an increase from gross loss of 0.9% for the year ended July 31, 2023. Our gross margin from our dominant business line, global logistics service, was 10.67% for the year ended July 31, 2024. We anticipate that the gross margin realized from logistics services is likely to increase in the future as demand picks up post-pandemic with relatively stable global logistics supply.

 

Operating Expenses

 

As our business grew, there was a significant increase in our total operating expenses, which were $886,876 for the year ended July 31, 2024 as compared to $339,909 for the year ended July 31, 2023. Our operating expenses primarily include payroll expenses, commissions, advertising, rent and professional fees relating to our obligations as a public company. The increase was mainly due to the increased commission expenses we paid to agents for referring global logistics customers, and professional fees in relation to our proposed public offering.

 

Income tax expense

 

Our income tax expense amounted to $35,906 for the year ended July 31, 2024 as compared to $12,095 for the year ended July 31, 2023. The change was due to the increase in revenue generated during the period.

 

Net income (loss)

 

Total net income was $110,320 for the year ended July 31, 2024. As the Company owns only 90% of the shares of its operating subsidiary, Roshing, 10% of net income generated by Roshing was attributed to the minority interest. As a result, the net income for the year ended July 31, 2024 attributable to the shareholders of the Company was $54,450. In comparison, during the year ended July 31, 2023, the Company incurred a net loss of $341,210. We believe our pivot to the logistics market gives our shareholders an opportunity to benefit from the opportunity presented by this market as the global economy recovers from the pandemic.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

In assessing our liquidity, we monitor and analyze our cash on-hand and our operating expenditure commitments. Our liquidity needs are to meet our working capital requirements and operating expenses obligations. As of October 31, 2024, we had working capital of $696,406, as our cash amounted to $323,793, our current assets were $894,314 and our current liabilities were $197,908. On October 31, 2024 we owed $2,271 to our related parties. As of July 31, 2024, we had working capital of $788,354, as our cash amounted to $413,129, our current assets were $910,305 and our current liabilities were $121,951. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through capital contributions and advances from shareholders, as well as private investors. On July 31, 2024 we owed $2,271 to our related parties (See Note 4 to the financial statements).

  

We believe that our liquidity and working capital will be sufficient to sustain our business operation for the next twelve months. We may, however, need additional cash resources in the future if there are changes in business conditions or other developments or if the company finds and wishes to pursue opportunities for investment, acquisition, capital expenditure, or similar actions.

 

We started providing logistics services during the quarter ended October 31, 2023. Although the business grew rapidly since then, we may require significant capital expenditure in order to obtain additional market share. If we determined that our cash requirements exceed the amount of cash and cash equivalents we have on hand at the time, we may seek to issue equity or debt securities or obtain credit facilities. The issuance and sale of additional equity may result in dilution to our shareholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased fixed obligations and could result in operating covenants that would restrict our operations. Our obligation to bear credit risk for certain financing transactions we facilitate may also strain our operating cash flow. We cannot assure you that financing will be in place or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

 

The following table summarizes the key components of our cash flows for the three months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Overview

 

The Company through Roshing provides global logistics services, encompassing booking and transportation arrangement and related logistics solutions. Roshing’s customized logistics solutions are tailored to meet the diverse needs of its customers.

 

As a logistics shipping operator, Roshing focuses on ocean freight forwarding services, including container shipping and bulk goods shipping service.

 

For the container shipping service, Roshing charters cargo space from shipping suppliers (such as shipowners, ship carrier or non-vessel operating common carriers) and then sub-charters that cargo space to its customers (cargo owners or cargo agents). For the bulk goods shipping service, Roshing issues fixture notes to customers, and then arranges the booking of ships, and signs chartering contracts with suppliers (such as shipowners). Roshing also tailors the selection of transport options, and arranges to transport the goods from the port of loading to the port of destination, so as to complete the performance of the contract.

 

Roshing currently does not own or operate any transportation assets. By leveraging our senior management’s expertise in the global logistics industry and adopting an asset-light strategy at the early stage, Roshing has seen a significant growth in logistics revenue since 2023. Shufang Gao, our CEO previously worked for a globally renowned shipping conglomerate, with over 20 years of management experience. His expertise spans shipping operation management, and logistics transportation. Leveraging this experience, he has provided the Company with the managerial framework to expand its global logistics business, as well as access to relevant customer and supplier resources in the shipping industry. Roshing’s business is primarily carried out in Hong Kong and other locations in the Asia-Pacific region, mainly in Japan, South Korea, Vietnam. Roshing’s logistics services also include the shipment of goods to African countries.

 

Roshing also generates revenue from the sale of electronic parts, and certain business and technical consulting services, independent from its global logistics business.

Our General Logistics Service Process

 

Roshing has a long-term and close cooperation with ocean shipping suppliers, including the signing of charter contracts, and service contracts. When a customer makes an inquiry to Roshing, we are usually able to offer competitive quotes and customize shipping solutions quickly.

 

Roshing begins by thoroughly evaluating the customer’s logistics needs, including the type of goods being shipped, the destination, and the required transportation time. Based on this information, Roshing designs an optimal transportation plan tailored to the customer’s specific requirements. This plan includes selecting the most efficient shipping routes, determining the appropriate container or bulk cargo vessel size and type, and considering any special handling or regulatory compliance requirements. Roshing then enters into a written contract with the customer for ocean shipping that can best meet the customer’s needs. This includes selecting a shipment method that aligns with the customer’s timeline and cargo specifications.

 

 

 

 62 

 

 

Roshing works with each customer to develop a cost-effective plan and service terms to meet the client’s specific needs. This involves detailed discussions to ensure that both parties have a clear understanding of expectations, costs, and responsibilities. Roshing will assign cargo space from the appropriate container or bulk cargo vessel based on the volume and weight of the shipment, minimize shipping costs, select the shortest route to save on freight, and choose the port closest to the customer’s destination.

 

Throughout the entire shipping process, Roshing maintains close oversight to ensure the safety and timely arrival of goods at the destination port. This involves real-time tracking and monitoring of the shipment, handling any unforeseen issues that may arise, and providing regular updates to the customer. By doing so, Roshing ensures that the goods are transported safely and arrive within the agreed timeframe, meeting all customer expectations.

 

We believe that Roshing stands out in the global logistics landscape because of its core strengths. First, Roshing’s management’s extensive network and industry relationships empower us with access to a wide customer base, enabling tailored solutions for an array of logistics requirements. Additionally, our collaboration with direct shipping suppliers ensures competitive rates and transparent service delivery. Moreover, Roshing’s expertise in route optimization enables us to efficiently manage logistics routes and secure favorable terms for its clients. These strengths collectively position us as a competitive player in the industry.

INDUSTRY AND MARKET OPPORTUNITIES

 

Logistics Market

 

The classification of the logistics service providers in the global logistics industry

 

 

Global logistics includes: Air Transport Logistics, Land Transport Logistics, Marine Transport Logistics, Terminal Operator etc. Among them, the Marine Transport Logistics is usually divided into shipping owner (holding ship assets) and shipping operator (not holding ship assets). The shipping operator includes Container Shipping Operator/ Bulk Shipping Operator/ Liquid Shipping Operator/ Others Shipping Operator. The main business of Roshing belongs to Container Shipping Operator and Bulk Shipping Operator categories.

 

Shipping operators, such as Roshing, play a key role in the global logistics industry. Their efficient operation management and services not only ensure the safety and punctual delivery of goods, but also play an important role in optimizing the logistics efficiency of global trade.

 

We believe the outlook for the shipping industry is strong. According to BIMCO (BIMCO is the world’s largest international shipping association, with over 2,000 members in more than 130 countries, representing 62% of the world’s tonnage.), ship supply is expected to grow on average 9.1% in 2024 and 4.1% in 2025. Ship deliveries are expected to hit a new record high in 2024, beating the record set in 2023. The fleet is expected to grow 14.9% between the end of 2023 and the end of 2025. Cargo volumes are expected to grow 3-4% in both 2024 and 2025.

 

 

 

 68 

 

 

Macro Economy Growth

 

According to the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) estimates, the global economy should grow 3.1% in 2024 and 3.2% in 2025, slightly higher than the 3.0% estimated for 2023, indicating a modest but positive trend in global economic expansion. In our primary area of operations in East and Southeast Asia, the growth is expected to be 4.0% in 2024 and 3.8% in 2025.

 

GDp

 

According to BIMCO: Iron ore shipments are estimated to grow 2.5% from 2023 to 2025. BIMCO estimates that iron ore shipments will grow by 1-2% in 2024 and 0.5-1.5% in 2025. They will benefit from a 1.7% and 1.2% increase in global steel demand in 2024 and 2025 respectively as forecast by the World Steel Association.

 

 

 

 69 

 

 

Strong demand in the bulk cargo market

 

We believe that there is strong demand in the bulk cargo market and challenges and opportunities in the container shipping industry. The global bulk carrier market is driven by factors such as increased demand from China and export bans from Indonesia. Container carriers profited from disruptions in the Red Sea, with some routes experiencing skyrocketing freight rates.

 

In mid-January 2024, a 40-day blockade in the Red Sea resulted in multiple detours of vessels from Africa, absorbing about 6% of global capacity. As a result, spot container freight rates on some routes almost doubled, with freight rates from China to Northern Europe rising by 237% since December 1st, according to the Shanghai Containerized Freight Index (SCFI). Additionally, it is forecasted that container capacity shortages in China will persist from the start of the Chinese Spring Festival in 2024, which may take months to resolve. With vessel supply remaining lower for an extended period, freight rates have been driven up, enabling shipowners to profit from prolonged disruptions in global trade.

 

Other Products & Services Market

 

Electronic Device Hardware Components Products Sales & Software Technology Consulting Services

 

The market for hardware components of electronic devices, including Wi-Fi modules, Bluetooth modules, 4G network modules, LED screens and touch screens, and other electronic components is highly competitive. The software technology services market is also a highly competitive market.

 

We believe that obtaining a competitive advantage in the electronic device hardware components products and software technology services markets requires the following:

 

Customization needs of existing customers: As the market continues to segment, we believe that the electronic product market has entered a period of highly integrated hardware and software. Some existing customers, as well as those requiring small-batch customization or product testing, have a certain demand for small and medium-sized batch customized hardware construction, software debugging and cooperation services.

 

Additionally, in a competitive market, we believe that cost control is crucial for the survival and growth of enterprises. Faced with customized demand orders, enterprises are trying to minimize expenses by optimizing supplier selection, refining supply management practices, and exploring avenues for collaboration with customers.

 

Business Consulting Services

 

At the end of 2023, in line with the continuous adjustment of the Talent Admission & Employment Policy in Hong Kong, such as talent scheme and other employment opportunities, we expect that the talent introduction consulting business may be revised after the second half of 2024, and the consulting services for Mainland Chinese residents may shrink or end. Predictably, providing some consulting services for local enterprises will be a major part of our consulting business.

 

At the same time, as an important business and financial center in Asia, Hong Kong has also attracted many companies to set up branches or expand operations there. This growth has provided a broad market space for local enterprises to serve. At the same time, we also take advantage of Hong Kong’s localization to provide some Hong Kong enterprises with corporate management, business services, administrative affairs consulting and other services. It is expected that this consulting business will evolve into a long-term service, fueled by the growing base of local corporate clients in Hong Kong, offering ample room for expansion.

Competition

 

Roshing’s container shipping operation faces competition from global and regional shipping companies such as Maersk, Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC), and CMA CGM Group. These companies offer extensive networks and comprehensive services, including advanced tracking technology, competitive pricing, and strong customer service capabilities. Additionally, logistics companies like DHL and FedEx also provide integrated transportation solutions, including container shipping.

 

To maintain competitiveness, Roshing focuses on providing high-quality, customized services, leveraging expertise, and maintaining strong relationships with customers through dedicated support and tailored solutions.

 

Roshing’s bulk shipping operation services compete with major bulk shipping companies such as Oldendorff Carriers, Pacific Basin, and Star Bulk Carriers.

Additionally, they may have long-term relationships with major industry players and ports, enhancing their operational efficiency.

 

To compete effectively, Roshing emphasizes efficient operational management, strong collaboration and coordination with stakeholders, and transparent financial management. By offering personalized customer service and flexible chartering options, Roshing strives to stand out in the market and build long-term customer loyalty.

Roshing’s customer structure varies according to its various business sectors.

 

Global Logistics Business

 

Roshing’s customer structure in the shipping and logistics business is highly diversified and encompasses various entities:

 

·Cargo Owners: These are businesses or individuals requiring the transportation of goods. They may need to charter vessels for transporting their cargo.
   
·Cargo Agents: These agents are engaged by diverse cargo owners to implement logistics solutions and often have significant booking demands.
   
·Logistics Companies: Regular patrons of shipping companies, these firms offer cargo transportation services to clients. They collaborate with shipping companies to tailor shipping solutions, coordinating shipping schedules and alternative routes to meet transportation needs effectively.
   
·Ship Brokers: Serving as intermediaries between shipowners and carriers, ship brokers work with shipping companies to arrange vessel leases and transportation services.

 

Other Product & Services

 77 

 

 

Business Consulting Services

 

Roshing’s client mix includes individual clients seeking policy advice in Hong Kong, and enterprises requiring local business services in Hong Kong and consulting services for cross-border business operations.

 

Seasonality

 

Roshing’s container shipments are influenced by seasonal factors, with February to April being off-peak seasons, and June to October being peak seasons. Dry bulk cargo is not subject to seasonal limitations and depends primarily on customer orders. The container logistics business is subject to seasonal influences, primarily manifested in the seasonality of international shipping, which is mainly reflected in seasonal fluctuations in cargo transportation volume. For example, in the lead-up to major holidays such as Christmas and Chinese Spring Festival, increased consumer demand often leads to a short-term surge in cargo transportation volume. Conversely, in the later stages of holidays and traditional off-peak seasons, cargo transportation volume may significantly decrease. This seasonal variation has a significant impact on shipping companies’ capacity allocation, route scheduling, and pricing strategies.

 

Roshing has implemented strategies to address seasonal influences. Seasonal fluctuations can lead to unstable vessel utilization rates, with possible capacity surplus during off-peak seasons and potential capacity constraints during peak seasons. Shipping companies can balance the effects of seasonal fluctuations by the number of chartered vessels, optimizing route layouts, signing long-term transportation contracts, and employing pricing strategies (such as off-peak discounts).

The Business Registration Ordinance requires every person carrying on any business to make an application to the Commissioner of Inland Revenue in the prescribed manner for the registration of that business within one month after the commencement of business. The Commissioner of Inland Revenue must register each business for which a business registration application is made and as soon as practicable after the prescribed business registration fee and levy are paid and issue a business registration certificate or branch registration certificate for the relevant business or the relevant branch, as the case may be.

Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (Chapter 486 of the Laws of Hong Kong), or the PDPO

 

The PDPO imposes a statutory duty on data users to comply with the requirements of the six data protection principles (the “Data Protection Principles”) contained in Schedule 1 to the PDPO. The PDPO provides that a data user shall not do an act, or engage in a practice, that contravenes a Data Protection Principle unless the act or practice, as the case may be, is required or permitted under the PDPO. The six Data Protection Principles are:

 

  · Principle 1—purpose and manner of collection of personal data;
  · Principle 2—accuracy and duration of retention of personal data;
  · Principle 3—use of personal data;
  · Principle 4—security of personal data;
  · Principle 5—information to be generally available; and
  · Principle 6—access to personal data.

 

Non-compliance with a Data Protection Principle may lead to a complaint to the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (the “Privacy Commissioner”). The Privacy Commissioner may serve an enforcement notice to direct the data user to remedy the contravention and/ or instigate prosecution actions. A data user who contravenes an enforcement notice commits an offense which may lead to a fine and imprisonment.

 

The PDPO also gives data subjects certain rights, inter alia:

 

  ·

the right to be informed by a data user whether the data user holds personal data of

which the individual is the data subject;

  · if the data user holds such data, to be supplied with a copy of such data; and
  · the right to request correction of any data they consider to be inaccurate.

 

The PDPO criminalizes, including but not limited to, the misuse or inappropriate use of personal data in direct marketing activities, non-compliance with a data access request and the unauthorized disclosure of personal data obtained without the relevant data user’s consent. An individual who suffers damage, including injured feelings, by reason of a contravention of the PDPO in relation to his or her personal data, may seek compensation from the data user concerned.

 

Tortious Duty Under Common Law

 

Apart from contractual liability, under common law, services providers also owe a duty of care to customers and may be liable for damage resulting from defects in services caused by their negligent acts or for any fraudulent misrepresentation made in the provision of services. Any person who undertakes to provide a service and who negligently performs his work and causes damage to another person or property, will also attract civil liability.

Trade Description Ordinance (Chapter 362 of the Laws of Hong Kong), or the TDO

 

The TDO aims to protect customers against unfair trade practices by regulating businesses to sell products and services in a truthful manner. It prohibits false trade descriptions in respect of services supplied in the course of trade.

 

Section 7A of the TDO provides that a trader who applies a false trade description to a service supplied or offered to be supplied to a consumer or supplies or offers to supply to a consumer a service to which a false trade description is applied, commits an offence.

 

Sections 13E, 13F, 13G, 13H and 13I of the TDO provide that a trader who engages in relation to a consumer in a commercial practice that (a) is a misleading omission; or (b) is aggressive; (c) constitutes bait advertising; (d) constitutes a bait and switch; or (e) constitutes wrongly accepting payment for a product, commits an offence.

 

A person who commits an offence under sections 7A, 13E, 13F, 13G, 13H or 13I shall be subject, on conviction on indictment, to a fine of HK$500,000 and to imprisonment for five years, and on summary conviction, to a fine at HK$100,000 and to imprisonment for two years.

 

Trade Marks Ordinance (Chapter 559 of the Laws of Hong Kong), or the TMO

 

The TMO provides for the registration of trademarks, the use of registered trademarks and connected matters. Hong Kong provides territorial protection for trademarks. Therefore, trademarks registered in other countries or regions are not automatically entitled to protection in Hong Kong. In order to enjoy protection by the laws of Hong Kong, trademarks must be registered with the Trade Marks Registry of the Intellectual Property Department under the Trade Marks Ordinance and the Trade Marks Rules (Chapter 559A of the Laws of Hong Kong).

 

According to section 10 of the TMO, a registered trademark is a property right acquired through due registration under such ordinance. The owner of a registered trademark is entitled to the rights provided by the ordinance.

 

By virtue of section 14 of the TMO, the owner of a registered trademark is conferred exclusive rights in the trademark. The rights of the owner in respect of the registered trademark come into existence from the date of the registration of the trademark. According to section 48 of such ordinance, the registration date is the filing date of the application for registration.

 

Subject to the exceptions in section 19 to section 21 of the TMO, any use of the trademark by third parties without the consent of the owner is an infringement of the trademark. Conducts which amount to infringement of the registered trademark are further specified in section 18 of the same ordinance.

 

Copyright Ordinance (Chapter 528 of the Laws of Hong Kong)

 

Pursuant to the Copyright Ordinance, a person may incur civil liability for ’’secondary infringement’’ if that person possesses, sells, distributes or deals with a copy of a work which is, and which he knows or has reason to believe to be, an infringing copy of the work for the purposes of or in the course of any trade or business without the consent of the copyright owner.

 

 

 

 81 

 

 

The Supply of Services (Implied Terms) Ordinance (Chapter 457 of the Laws of Hong Kong), or the SOSO

 

The SOSO which aims to consolidate and amend the law with respect to the terms to be implied in contracts for the supply of services (including a contract for the supply of a service whether or not goods are also transferred or to be transferred, or bailed or to be bailed by way of hire under the contract) provides that:

 

(a)where the supplier is acting in the course of a business, there is an implied term that the supplier will carry out the service with reasonable care and skill; and
   
(b)where the supplier is acting in the course of a business, the time for service to be carried out is not fixed by the contract, is not left to be fixed in a manner agreed by the contract or is not determined by the course of dealing between the parties, there is an implied term that the supplier will carry out the service within a reasonable time.

 

Where a supplier is dealing with a party to a contract for supply of service who deals as a consumer, the supplier cannot, by reference to any contract term, exclude or restrict any liability of his arising under the contract by virtue of the SOSO. Otherwise, where any right, duty or liability would arise under a contract for the supply of a service by virtue of the SOSO, it may (subject to the Control of Exemption Clauses Ordinance (Chapter 71 of the Laws of Hong Kong)) be negatived or varied by express agreement, or by the course of dealing between the parties, or by such usage as binds both parties to the contract.

 

The Control of Exemption Clauses Ordinance (Chapter 71 of the Laws of Hong Kong), or the CECO

 

The CECO, which aims to limit the extent to which civil liability for breach of contract, or for negligence or other breach of duty, can be avoided by means of contract terms and otherwise, among others, provides that:

 

(a)under section 7, a person cannot by reference to any contract term or to a notice given to persons generally or to particular persons exclude or restrict his liability for death or personal injury resulting from negligence and in the case of other loss or damage, a person cannot exclude or restrict his liability for negligence except in so far as the term or notice satisfies the requirement of reasonableness.
(b)under section 8, as between contracting parties where one of them deals as consumer or on the other’s written standard terms of business, as against that party, the other cannot by reference to any contract term (i) when himself in breach of contract, exclude or restrict any liability of his in respect of the breach, or (ii) claim to be entitled to render a contractual performance substantially different from that which was reasonably expected of him, or (iii) claim to be entitled in respect of the whole or any part of his contractual obligation, to render no performance at all, except in so far as the contract term satisfies the requirement of reasonableness.
(c)under section 9, a person dealing as a consumer cannot by reference to any contract term be made to indemnify another person (whether a party to the contract or not) in respect of liability that may be incurred by the other for negligence or breach of contract, except in so far as the contract term satisfies the requirement of reasonableness; and
(d)under section 11, as against a person dealing as consumer, the liability for breach of the obligations arising under sections 15, 16 and 17 of the Sales of Goods Ordinance (Chapter 26 of the Laws of Hong Kong) cannot be excluded or restricted by reference to any contract term, and as against person dealing otherwise than as consumer, the liability arising under sections 15, 16 and 17 of the Sales of Goods Ordinance can be excluded or restricted by reference to a contract term, but only in so far as the terms satisfy the requirement of reasonableness.

 

Sections 7, 8 and 9 of the CECO do not apply to, among others, any contract so far as it relates to the creation or transfer of a right or interest in any patent, trademark, copyright, registered design, technical or commercial information or other intellectual property, or relates to the termination of any such right or interest.

 

In relation to a contract term, the requirement of reasonableness for the purpose of the CECO is satisfied only if the court or arbitrator determines that the term was a fair and reasonable one to be included having regarded to the circumstances which were, or ought reasonably to have been, known to or in the contemplation of the parties when the contract was made.

Regulations related to employment and labor protection

 

Employment Ordinance (Chapter 57 of the Laws of Hong Kong), or the EO

 

The EO is an ordinance enacted for, amongst other things, the protection of the wages of employees and the regulation of the general conditions of employment and employment agencies. Under the EO, an employee is generally entitled to, amongst other things, notice of termination of his or her employment contract; payment in lieu of notice; maternity protection in the case of a pregnant employee; not less than one rest day in every period of seven days; severance payments or long service payments; sickness allowance; statutory holidays or alternative holidays; and paid annual leave depending on the period of employment.

 

Employees’ Compensation Ordinance (Chapter 282 of the Laws of Hong Kong), or the ECO

 

The ECO is an ordinance enacted for the purpose of providing for the payment of compensation to employees injured in the course of employment.

 

The ECO establishes a no-fault and non-contributory employee compensation system for work injuries and lays down the rights and obligations of employers and employees in respect of injuries or death caused by accidents arising out of and in the course of employment, or by prescribed occupational diseases.

 

As stipulated by the ECO, no employer shall employ any employee in any employment unless there is in force in relation to such employee a policy of insurance issued by an insurer for an amount not less than the applicable amount specified in the Fourth Schedule of the ECO in respect of the liability of the employer. According to the Fourth Schedule of the ECO, the insured amount shall be not less than HKD100,000,000 (approximately $13,000,000) per event if a company has no more than 200 employees. Any employer who contravenes this requirement commits a criminal offence and is liable on conviction to a fine and imprisonment. An employer who has taken out an insurance policy under the ECO is required to display a prescribed notice of insurance in a conspicuous place on each of its premises where any employee is employed.

 

Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Ordinance (Chapter 485 of the Laws of Hong Kong), or the MPFSO

 

The MPFSO is an ordinance enacted for the purposes of providing for the establishment of non-governmental mandatory provident fund schemes, or the MPF Schemes. The MPFSO requires every employer of an employee of 18 years of age or above but under 65 years of age to take all practical steps to ensure the employee becomes a member of a registered MPF Scheme within the first 60 days of employment. Subject to the minimum and maximum relevant income levels, it is mandatory for both employers and their employees to contribute 5% of the employee’s relevant income to the MPF Scheme. Any employer who contravenes the requirement of enrolling eligible employees in a registered MPF Scheme or the requirement of paying mandatory contributions to the MPF Schemes commits a criminal offence and is liable on conviction to a fine and imprisonment.

 

Minimum Wage Ordinance (Chapter 608 of the Laws of Hong Kong), or the MWO

 

The MWO provides a prescribed minimum hourly wage rate (currently at HK$40 per hour) during the wage period for every employee engaged under a contract of employment under the EO. Any provision of the employment contract which purports to extinguish or reduce the right, benefit or protection conferred on the employee by the MWO is void.

 

Failure to pay minimum wage amounts to a breach of the wage provisions under EO. An employer who willfully and without reasonable excuse fails to pay wages to an employee when it becomes due commits a criminal offence and is liable on conviction to a fine and imprisonment.

 

 

 

 83 

 

 

Occupational Safety and Health Ordinance (Chapter 509 of the Laws of Hong Kong), or the OSHO

 

The OSHO aims to ensure the safety and health of employees when they are at work. Under the OSHO, an employer must ensure the safety and health of his workplace by (i) providing and maintaining plant and work systems that are safe and without risks to health, (ii) making arrangement for ensuring safety and health in connection with the use, handling, storage or transport of plant or substances, (iii) providing all necessary information, instruction, training and supervision for ensuring safety and health, (iv) providing and maintaining safe access to and egress from the workplace, and (v) providing and maintaining a safe and healthy work environment. An employer who fails to comply with the above may be liable on conviction to a fine and imprisonment, if he did so intentionally, knowingly or recklessly.

 

Occupational Safety and Health Regulation (Chapter 509A of the Laws of Hong Kong)

 

The Occupational Safety and Health Regulation (Chapter 509A of the Laws of Hong Kong) further sets out basic requirements for accident prevention, fire precaution, workplace environment control, hygiene at workplaces, first aid, as well as what employers and employees are expected to do in manual handling operations.

The Occupiers Liability Ordinance imposes a common duty of care on an occupier of premises to take such care as in all the circumstances of the case is reasonable to see that the visitors will be reasonably safe in using the premises for the purposes for which he is invited or permitted by the occupier to be there.

Under the two-tier profit tax rates regime, the profits tax rate for the first HKD2 million (approximately US$260,000) of assessable profits of a corporation will be subject to the lowered tax rate, 8.25%, while the remaining assessable profits will be subject to the legacy tax rate, 16.5%.

 

No tax is imposed in Hong Kong in respect of capital gains from the sale of shares. However, trading gains from the sale of shares by persons carrying on a trade, profession or business in Hong Kong, where such gains are derived from or arise in Hong Kong, will be subject to Hong Kong profits tax.

 

Stamp Duty Ordinance (Chapter 117 of the Laws of Hong Kong)

 

Under the Stamp Duty Ordinance (Chapter 117 of the Laws of Hong Kong), a total of 0.2% of the higher of the consideration for or market value of the shares is currently payable on a typical sale and purchase transaction of Hong Kong shares. In addition, a fixed duty of HKD5 is currently payable on any instrument of transfer of Hong Kong shares. If no stamp duty is paid on or before the due date, a penalty of up to ten times the duty payable may be imposed.

 

Estate duty

 

Hong Kong estate duty was abolished effective from February 11, 2006. No Hong Kong estate duty is payable by Roshing’s stockholders in relation to the shares owned by them upon death.

We are authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock at a par value of $0.0001 per share, and as of October 31, 2024 and the date of this prospectus, we had 14,781,803 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

 

Voting Rights. Each share of our common stock entitles its holder to one vote per share on all matters to be voted or consented upon by the stockholders.

 

Dividend Rights. Subject to limitations under the Nevada Revised Statutes, holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends or other distributions, if any, as may be declared by our Board out of funds legally available therefor.

 

Liquidation Rights. In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our business, the holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in the assets available for distribution after the payment of all of our debts and other liabilities.

 

Other Matters. The holders of our common stock have no subscription, redemption or conversion privileges; in addition, such common stock does not entitle its holders to pre-emptive rights. All of the outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

Description of Preferred Stock

 

Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes 80,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value per share, and 20,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share. As of the date of this prospectus, 80,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock have been established and designated as Series B Preferred Stock.

 

The issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect, among other things, the voting power of holders of common stock and the likelihood that stockholders will receive dividend payments and payments upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up. The issuance of preferred stock could also have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of us.

 

The Board of Directors shall have authority, without stockholder approval, to amend the Tianci’s Articles of Incorporation to divide the class of Preferred Stock into series, and to determine the relative rights and preferences of the shares of each series, including (i) voting power, (ii) the rate of dividend, (iii) the price at which, and the terms and conditions on which, the shares may be redeemed, (iv) the amount payable upon the shares in the event of liquidation, (v) any sinking fund provision for the redemption or purchase of the shares, and (vi) the terms and conditions on which the shares may be converted to shares of another series or class, if the shares of any series are issued with the privilege of conversion.

Series A Preferred Stock

 

On January 26, 2023, we issued 80,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock may be converted by the holder of the share into 100 shares of common stock, subject to equitable adjustment of the conversion rate. Each holder of Series A Preferred Stock will have voting rights equal to the holder of the number of shares of common stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible. Upon liquidation of the Company, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, out of the net assets of the Company, $0.01 per share, then to share in the distribution on an as-converted basis.

 

The following is a summary of the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock, which is qualified in its entirety the Supplement to Item 3: Authorized Stock of Attachment to Certificate of Amendment of Articles of Incorporation, which was filed as Exhibit 10-a to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 26, 2023 and which is incorporated into this prospectus by reference.

 

Liquidation

 

Upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Corporation, the holder of each share of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the net assets of the Corporation, before any amount shall be paid to the holders of any other class of stock, the sum of One Cent ($0.01) per share, after which the Holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall share in the distribution with the holders of the common stock on a pari passu basis, except that in determining the appropriate distribution of available cash among the stockholders, each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have been converted into the number of shares of the Corporation’s common stock into which that holder’s Series A Preferred Stock could be converted on the record date for the distribution.

 

Voting

 

Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to cast on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Corporation that number of votes which equals the number of shares of Common Stock into which such holder's shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible on the record date for the stockholder action.

 

Conversion

 

Any shares of Series A Preferred Stock may, at any time, at the option of the holder, be converted into fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock (a “Conversion”). The number of shares of common stock to which a holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled upon a Conversion shall be the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock being converted by one hundred (100).

 

Consolidation, Merger, etc. In case the Corporation shall enter into any consolidation, merger, reorganization, or other transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, cash and/or any other property, then in any such case the Conversion Rights of Series A Preferred Stock shall at the same time be modified such that upon Conversion of a share of Series A Preferred Stock the holder shall receive the product of the Adjustment Number times the aggregate amount of stock, securities, cash and/or any other property (payable in kind), as the case may be, into which or for which each share of common stock is changed or exchanged.

 

Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange and Substitution. At any time or times the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of the Corporation’s stock, whether by recapitalization, combination, consolidation, reverse stock split, reclassification or otherwise, the Adjustment Number shall be changed proportionately to the change in the number of shares of common stock resulting from the recapitalization, reclassification or other change.

 

Fractional Shares. The Corporation shall not, nor shall it cause its transfer agent to, issue any fraction of a share of common stock upon any conversion. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of common stock, the Corporation shall round, or cause the Transfer Agent to round, such fraction of a share of common stock up to the nearest whole share.

Dividend Payable in Shares of Stock

 

In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on common stock payable in shares of common stock, then the Adjustment Number in effect immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted by multiplying such Adjustment Number by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of common stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event

 

As of the date of this prospectus, all shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been converted into 8,000,000 shares of common stock, and no shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding.

 

Series B Preferred Stock

 

On April 24, 2024, we issued 80,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, each of which is convertible at any time, by the holder of the share into 100 shares of common stock (an aggregate of 8,000,000 shares of common stock), subject to equitable adjustment of the conversion rate. The holder of Series B Preferred Stock will have voting rights equal to the holder of the number of shares of common stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible. Upon liquidation of the Company, each holder of Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, out of the net assets of the Company, $0.01 per share, then to share in the distribution on an as-converted basis.

 

The following is a summary of the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock, which is qualified in its entirety by Exhibit A to Certificate of Designation Establishing Series B Preferred Stock, which was filed as Exhibit 10-a to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 24, 2024 and which is incorporated into this prospectus by reference.

 

Liquidation

 

Upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Corporation, the holder of each share of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the net assets of the Corporation, before any amount shall be paid to the holders of any other class of stock, the sum of One Cent ($0.01) per share, after which the Holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall share in the distribution with the holders of the common stock on a pari passu basis, except that in determining the appropriate distribution of available cash among the stockholders, each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have been converted into the number of shares of the Corporation’s common stock into which that holder’s Series B Preferred Stock could be converted on the record date for the distribution.

 

Voting

 

Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to cast on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Corporation that number of votes which equals the number of shares of Common Stock into which such holder's shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible on the record date for the stockholder action.

 

Conversion

 

Any shares of Series B Preferred Stock may, at any time, at the option of the holder, be converted into fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock (a “Conversion”). The number of shares of common stock to which a holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled upon a Conversion shall be the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock being converted by one hundred (100).

 

Consolidation, Merger, etc. In case the Corporation shall enter into any consolidation, merger, reorganization, or other transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, cash and/or any other property, then in any such case the Conversion Rights of Series B Preferred Stock shall at the same time be modified such that upon Conversion of a share of Series B Preferred Stock the holder shall receive the product of the Adjustment Number times the aggregate amount of stock, securities, cash and/or any other property (payable in kind), as the case may be, into which or for which each share of common stock is changed or exchanged.

Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange and Substitution
. At any time or times the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of the Corporation’s stock, whether by recapitalization, combination, consolidation, reverse stock split, reclassification or otherwise, the Adjustment Number shall be changed proportionately to the change in the number of shares of common stock resulting from the recapitalization, reclassification or other change.

 

Fractional Shares. The Corporation shall not, nor shall it cause its transfer agent to, issue any fraction of a share of common stock upon any conversion. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of common stock, the Corporation shall round, or cause the Transfer Agent to round, such fraction of a share of common stock up to the nearest whole share.

 

Dividend Payable in Shares of Stock

 

In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on common stock payable in shares of common stock, then the Adjustment Number in effect immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted by multiplying such Adjustment Number by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of common stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.

 

As of the date of this prospectus, 80,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding and are convertible into an aggregate of 8,000,000 shares of common stock, and none have been converted into common stock.

 

Undesignated Preferred Stock

 

The Board of Directors shall have authority, without stockholder approval and by resolution of the Board of Directors, to amend the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation to divide the class of Preferred Stock into series, to designate each such series by a distinguishing letter, number or title so as to distinguish the shares thereof from the shares of all other series and classes, and to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of the shares of each series so established, including (a) voting power, (b) the rate of dividend, (c) the price at which, and the terms and conditions on which, the shares may be redeemed, (iv) the amount payable upon the shares in the event of liquidation, (d) any sinking fund provision for the redemption or purchase of the shares, and (e) the terms and conditions on which the shares may be converted to shares of another series or class, if the shares of any series are issued with the privilege of conversion.

Nevada Business Combination Statutes

 

The “business combination” provisions of Sections 78.411 to 78.444, inclusive, of the Nevada Revised Statutes, (the “NRS”), generally prohibit a Nevada corporation with at least 200 stockholders of record from engaging in various “combination” transactions with any interested stockholder for a period of two years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the transaction is approved by the Board prior to the date the interested stockholder obtained such status or the combination is approved by the Board and thereafter is approved at a meeting of the stockholders by the affirmative vote of stockholders representing at least 60% of the outstanding voting power held by disinterested stockholders, and extends beyond the expiration of the two-year period, unless:

 

  · the combination was approved by the Board prior to the person becoming an interested stockholder or the transaction by which the person first became an interested stockholder was approved by the Board before the person became an interested stockholder or the combination is later approved by a majority of the voting power held by disinterested stockholders; or
     
  · if the consideration to be paid by the interested stockholder is at least equal to the highest of: (a) the highest price per share paid by the interested stockholder within the two years immediately preceding the date of the announcement of the combination or in the transaction in which it became an interested stockholder, whichever is higher, (b) the market value per share of common stock on the date of announcement of the combination and the date the interested stockholder acquired the shares, whichever is higher, or (c) for holders of preferred stock, the highest liquidation value of the preferred stock, if it is higher.

 

A “combination” is generally defined to include mergers or consolidations or any sale, lease exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer, or other disposition, in one transaction or a series of transactions, with an “interested stockholder” having: (a) an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of the assets of the corporation, (b) an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of all outstanding voting shares of the corporation, (c) more than 10% of the earning power or net income of the corporation, and (d) certain other transactions with an interested stockholder or an affiliate or associate of an interested stockholder.

  

In general, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, beneficially owns (or within two years, did own) 10% or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of a corporation. The statute could prohibit or delay mergers or other takeover or change in control attempts and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire us even though such a transaction may offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their stock at a price above the prevailing market price.

 

Anti-Takeover Provisions

 

Certain provisions of Nevada law and our bylaws summarized below, may have the effect of delaying, deferring or discouraging another person from acquiring control of us.

 

It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish or could deter transactions that stockholders may otherwise consider to be in their best interest or in our best interests, including transactions that might result in a premium over the market price for our shares.

 

These provisions are expected to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with our board of directors. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure us outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging these proposals because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

 

 

 

 98 

 

 

Control Share Acquisitions

 

The “control share” provisions of Sections 78.378 to 78.3793, inclusive, of the NRS apply to “issuing corporations” that are Nevada corporations with at least 200 stockholders, including at least 100 stockholders of record who are Nevada residents, and that conduct business directly or indirectly in Nevada. The control share statute prohibits an acquirer, under certain circumstances, from voting its shares of a target corporation’s stock after crossing certain ownership threshold percentages, unless the acquirer obtains approval of the target corporation’s disinterested stockholders. The statute specifies three thresholds: one-fifth or more but less than one-third, one-third but less than a majority, and a majority or more, of the outstanding voting power. Generally, once an acquirer crosses one of the above thresholds, those shares in an offer or acquisition and acquired within 90 days thereof become “control shares” and such control shares are deprived of the right to vote until disinterested stockholders restore the right. These provisions also provide that if control shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person has acquired a majority or more of all voting power, all other stockholders who do not vote in favor of authorizing voting rights to the control shares are entitled to demand payment for the fair value of their shares in accordance with statutory procedures established for dissenters’ rights.

 

A corporation may elect to not be governed by, or “opt out” of, the control share provisions by making an election in its articles of incorporation or bylaws, provided that the opt-out election must be in place on the 10th day following the date an acquiring person has acquired a controlling interest, that is, crossing any of the three thresholds described above. We have not opted out of the control share statutes, and will be subject to these statutes if we are an “issuing corporation” as defined in such statutes.

 

The effect of the Nevada control share statutes is that the acquiring person, and those acting in association with the acquiring person, will obtain only such voting rights in the control shares as are conferred by a resolution of the stockholders at an annual or special meeting. The Nevada control share law, if applicable, could have the effect of discouraging takeovers of our company.

PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS

 

The following table sets forth information with respect to the securities holdings of (a) Tianci’s executive officers and directors, and (b) all persons which, pursuant to filings with the SEC and our stock transfer records, we have reason to believe they are deemed the beneficial owner of more than five percent (5%) of any class of Tianci’s voting stock as of the date of the prospectus. The securities “beneficially owned” by an individual are determined in accordance with the definition of “beneficial ownership” set forth in the regulations promulgated under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder and, accordingly, may include securities owned by or for, among others, the spouse and/or minor children of an individual and any other relative who resides in the same home as such individual, as well as other securities as to which the individual has or shares voting or investment power or which each person has the right to acquire within 60 days through the exercise of options or otherwise. Under the SEC rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities, and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which he or she may not have any pecuniary interest.

 

The number and percentage of beneficial ownership of each listed person prior to the offering is based on 14,781,803 shares of common stock outstanding as of October 31, 2024 and as of the date of this prospectus. The voting power of each stockholder with respect to their securities is calculated based on 14,781,803 shares of common stock outstanding as October 31, 2024 and as of the date of the prospectus, and 80,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock that have same voting rights equal to the holder of 100 shares of common stock per each outstanding share of Series B Preferred Stock. The number and percentage of common stock beneficially owned after the offering are 16,433,271 shares of common stock outstanding upon the completion of the Underwritten Offering, assuming the lead underwriter does not exercise its over-allotment option. To calculate a stockholder’s percentage of beneficial ownership of common stock, we must include in the numerator and denominator those shares of common stock underlying convertible securities that such stockholder is considered to beneficially own. Shares of common stock underlying convertible securities held by other stockholders, however, are disregarded in this calculation. Therefore, the denominator used in calculating beneficial ownership of each of the stockholders may be different.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO NON-U.S. HOLDERS

 

The following discussion is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to Non-U.S. Holders (as defined below) of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all potential tax effects. The effects of other U.S. federal tax laws, such as estate and gift tax laws, and any applicable state, local or non-U.S. tax laws are not discussed. This discussion is based on the Code, Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial decisions, and published rulings and administrative pronouncements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), in each case in effect as of the date hereof. These authorities may change or be subject to differing interpretations. Any such change or differing interpretation may be applied retroactively in a manner that could adversely affect a Non-U.S. Holder. We have not sought and will not seek any rulings from the IRS regarding the matters discussed below. There can be no assurance the IRS or a court will not take a contrary position to that discussed below regarding the tax consequences of the purchase, ownership, and disposition of our common stock.

 

This discussion is limited to Non-U.S. Holders that hold our common stock as a “capital asset” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all U.S. federal income tax consequences relevant to a Non-U.S. Holder’s particular circumstances, including the impact of the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income or the alternative minimum tax. In addition, it does not address consequences relevant to Non-U.S. Holders subject to special rules, including, without limitation:

 

  · U.S. expatriates and former citizens or long-term residents of the United States;
     
  · persons holding our common stock as part of a hedge, straddle, or other risk reduction strategy or as part of a conversion transaction or other integrated investment;
     
  · banks, insurance companies, and other financial institutions;
     
  · brokers, dealers, or traders in securities;
     
  · “controlled foreign corporations,” “passive foreign investment companies,” and corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;
     
  · partnerships or other entities or arrangements treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and investors therein);
     
  · tax-exempt organizations or governmental organizations;
     
  · persons deemed to sell our common stock under the constructive sale provisions of the Code;
     
  · persons who hold or receive our common stock pursuant to the exercise of any employee stock option or otherwise as compensation;
     
  · tax-qualified retirement plans;
     
  · “qualified foreign pension funds” as defined in Section 897(l)(2) of the Code and entities all of the interests of which are held by qualified foreign pension funds; and
     
  · persons subject to special tax accounting rules as a result of any item of gross income with respect to our common stock being taken into account in an applicable financial statement.

 

 

 

 102 

 

 

If an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds our common stock, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will depend on the status of the partner, the activities of the partnership and certain determinations made at the partner level. Accordingly, partnerships holding our common stock and the partners in such partnerships should consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences to them.

 

THIS DISCUSSION IS NOT TAX ADVICE. INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATIONS AS WELL AS ANY TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP, AND DISPOSITION OF OUR COMMON STOCK ARISING UNDER THE U.S. FEDERAL ESTATE OR GIFT TAX LAWS OR UNDER THE LAWS OF ANY STATE, LOCAL, OR NON-U.S. TAXING JURISDICTION OR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE INCOME TAX TREATY.

 

Definition of Non-U.S. Holder

 

For purposes of this discussion, a “Non-U.S. Holder” is any beneficial owner of our common stock that is neither a “U.S. person” nor an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A U.S. person is any person that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is or is treated as any of the following:

 

  · an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;
     
  · a corporation created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia;
     
  · an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or
     
  · a trust that (a) is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and all substantial decisions of which are subject to the control of one or more “United States persons” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), or (b) has a valid election in effect to be treated as a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

 

Distributions

 

As described in the section titled “Dividend Policy,” we do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. However, if we do make distributions of cash or property on our common stock, such distributions will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Amounts not treated as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes will constitute a return of capital and first be applied against and reduce a Non-U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its common stock, but not below zero. Any excess will be treated as capital gain and will be treated as described below under the subsection titled “Sale or Other Taxable Disposition.”

 

Subject to the discussion below on effectively connected income, dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% of the gross amount of the dividends (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty, provided the Non-U.S. Holder furnishes a valid IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable documentation) certifying qualification for the lower treaty rate). A Non-U.S. Holder that does not timely furnish the required documentation, but that qualifies for a reduced treaty rate, may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding their entitlement to benefits under any applicable tax treaties.

If dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, the Non-U.S. Holder maintains a permanent establishment in the United States to which such dividends are attributable), the Non-U.S. Holder will be exempt from the U.S. federal withholding tax described above. To claim the exemption, the Non-U.S. Holder must furnish to the applicable withholding agent a valid IRS Form W-8ECI, certifying that the dividends are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States.

 

Any such effectively connected dividends will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at the regular rates. A Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation also may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on such effectively connected dividends, as adjusted for certain items. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding any applicable tax treaties that may provide for different rules.

 

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition

 

Subject to the discussion below regarding backup withholding, a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain realized upon the sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock unless:

 

  · the gain is effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, the Non-U.S. Holder maintains a permanent establishment in the United States to which such gain is attributable);
     
  · the Non-U.S. Holder is a nonresident alien individual present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year of the disposition and certain other requirements are met; or
     
  · our common stock constitutes a U.S. real property interest (“USRPI”), by reason of our status as a U.S. real property holding corporation (“USRPHC”), for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

 

Gain described in the first bullet point above generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at the regular rates. A Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation also may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on such effectively connected gain, as adjusted for certain items.

 

A Non-U.S. Holder described in the second bullet point above will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on any gain realized upon the sale or other taxable disposition, which may be offset by certain U.S. source capital losses of the Non-U.S. Holder (even though the individual is not considered a resident of the United States), provided the Non-U.S. Holder has timely filed U.S. federal income tax returns with respect to such losses.

 

With respect to the third bullet point above, we believe we currently are not, and do not anticipate becoming, a USRPHC. Because the determination of whether we are a USRPHC depends, however, on the fair market value of our USRPIs relative to the fair market value of our non-U.S. real property interests and our other business assets, there can be no assurance we currently are not a USRPHC or will not become one in the future. Even if we are or were to become a USRPHC, gain arising from the sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock by a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax if our common stock is “regularly traded,” as defined by applicable Treasury Regulations, on an established securities market, and such Non-U.S. Holder owned, actually and constructively, 5% or less of our common stock throughout the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of the sale or other taxable disposition or the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period.

 

Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding any applicable tax treaties that may provide for different rules.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

 

Payments of dividends on our common stock will not be subject to backup withholding, provided the Non-U.S. Holder certifies its non-U.S. status, such as by furnishing a valid IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, or W-8ECI, or otherwise establishes an exemption. However, information returns are required to be filed with the IRS in connection with any distributions on our common stock paid to the Non-U.S. Holder, regardless of whether any tax was actually withheld. In addition, proceeds of the sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock within the United States or conducted through certain U.S.-related brokers generally will not be subject to backup withholding or information reporting if the applicable withholding agent receives the certification described above or the Non-U.S. Holder otherwise establishes an exemption. Proceeds of a disposition of our common stock conducted through a non-U.S. office of a non-U.S. broker that does not have certain enumerated relationships with the United States generally will not be subject to backup withholding or information reporting.

 

Copies of information returns that are filed with the IRS may also be made available under the provisions of an applicable treaty or agreement to the tax authorities of the country in which the Non-U.S. Holder resides or is established.

 

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or a credit against a Non-U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

 

Additional Withholding Tax on Payments Made to Foreign Accounts

 

Withholding taxes may be imposed under Sections 1471 to 1474 of the Code (such Sections commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”)) on certain types of payments made to non-U.S. financial institutions and certain other non-U.S. entities. Specifically, a 30% withholding tax may be imposed on dividends on, or (subject to the proposed Treasury Regulations discussed below) gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, our common stock paid to a “foreign financial institution” or a “non-financial foreign entity” (each as defined in the Code), unless (i) the foreign financial institution undertakes certain diligence and reporting obligations, (ii) the non-financial foreign entity either certifies it does not have any “substantial United States owners” (as defined in the Code) or furnishes identifying information regarding each substantial United States owner, or (iii) the foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity otherwise qualifies for an exemption from these rules. If the payee is a foreign financial institution and is subject to the diligence and reporting requirements in (i) above, it must enter into an agreement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury requiring, among other things, that it undertake to identify accounts held by certain “specified United States persons” or “United States owned foreign entities” (each as defined in the Code), annually report certain information about such accounts, and withhold 30% on certain payments to non-compliant foreign financial institutions and certain other account holders. Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules.

 

Under the applicable Treasury Regulations and administrative guidance, withholding under FATCA generally applies to payments of dividends on our common stock. While withholding under FATCA would have applied also to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of stock on or after January 1, 2019, proposed Treasury Regulations eliminate FATCA withholding on payments of gross proceeds entirely. Taxpayers generally may rely on these proposed Treasury Regulations until final Treasury Regulations are issued.

 

Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential application of withholding under FATCA to their investment in our common stock.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

 

Prior to this Underwritten Offering, only a limited public market for our common stock existed on the OTC Pink Market since February 9, 2022. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of shares of our common stock or the availability of shares of our common stock for sale will have on the market price of our common stock prevailing from time to time. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market after this Underwritten Offering could adversely affect market prices prevailing from time to time and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity securities.

 

Upon the closing of this Underwritten Offering, we will have 16,951,803 shares of our common stock outstanding pursuant to this Underwritten Offering (assuming no exercise of the lead underwriter’s option to purchase additional shares of common stock).

 

All previously issued shares of common stock that were not offered and sold as part of this Underwritten Offering, are or will be upon issuance, “restricted securities,” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. These restricted securities are eligible for public sale only if such public resale is registered under the Securities Act or if the resale qualifies for an exemption from registration under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, which is summarized below.

 

In general, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least six months in the event we have been a reporting company under the Exchange Act for at least ninety (90) days before the sale, would be entitled to sell such securities, provided that such person is not deemed to be an affiliate of ours at the time of sale or to have been an affiliate of ours at any time during the ninety (90) days preceding the sale. A person who is an affiliate of ours at such time would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of the following:

 

  · 1% of the number of shares of our common stock then outstanding; or
     
  · 1% of the average weekly trading volume of our common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing by such person of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale;

 

provided that, in each case, we are subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for at least 90 days before the sale. Rule 144 trades must also comply with the manner of sale, notice and other provisions of Rule 144, to the extent applicable.

 

Historically, the SEC has taken the position that Rule 144 under the Securities Act is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by companies that are, or previously were, blank check companies to their promoters or affiliates despite technical compliance with the requirements of Rule 144. The SEC has codified and expanded this position in its amendments effective on February 15, 2008, which applies to securities acquired both before and after that date by prohibiting the use of Rule 144 for the resale of securities issued by shell companies (other than business transaction related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. The SEC has provided an important exception to this prohibition, however, if the following conditions are met:

 

  · the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;
     
  · the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

 

  · the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports; and
     
  · at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

 

 

 

 106 

 

 

In addition, for proposed sales under Rule 144(i), there must be adequate current publicly available information about the issuing company before the sale can be made. For reporting companies, this generally means that the companies have complied with the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. As such, due to the fact that we were a shell company until the effective time of the reverse merger, holders of “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 will be subject to the above conditions.

 

Lock-up Agreements

 

We, our directors, officers and certain stockholders have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to offer, pledge, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, or enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of our common stock or such other securities for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of this prospectus, without the prior written consent of Benjamin Securities, Inc.

 

Registration Rights

 

As of the date of this prospectus, we do not have registration rights arrangements with the holders of our common stock or their transferees, but we may enter into registration rights agreements with certain holders of our common stock or their transferees in the future, under which they will be entitled to request that we register their common stock for resale under the Securities Act upon completion of the Underwritten Offering and following the expiration of the lock-up agreements described above.

 

UNDERWRITING

 

Under the terms and subject to the conditions of an underwriting agreement dated the date of this prospectus, the underwriter named below, Benjamin Securities, Inc., is acting as an exclusive lead and managing underwriter and sole book-running manager, has agreed to purchase, and we have agreed to sell to them, the number of shares of our common stock at the public offering price, less the underwriting discounts, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus and as indicated below:

 

Underwriter   

Number of

Shares

 
Benjamin Securities, Inc.     
Total     

 

The underwriter is offering the shares subject to their acceptance of the shares from us and subject to prior sale. The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the underwriter to pay for and accept delivery of the common stock offered by this prospectus are subject to the approval of certain legal matters by their counsel and to other conditions. The underwriter is obligated to take and pay for all of the common stock offered by this prospectus if any such shares are taken. However, the underwriter is not required to take or pay for the shares covered by the underwriter’s option to purchase additional shares described below.

 

We have granted to the underwriter an option, exercisable for 45 days from the date of this prospectus, to purchase up to additional shares of common stock, or 15% of the total shares of the common stock to be offered by us pursuant to the Underwritten Offering, at the public offering price listed on the cover page of this prospectus, less underwriting discounts. The underwriter may exercise this option solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments, if any, made in connection with the offering contemplated by this prospectus. To the extent the option is exercised, the underwriter will become obligated, subject to certain conditions, to purchase about the same percentage of the additional common stock as the number listed next to the underwriter’s name in the preceding table bears to the total number of common stock listed next to the names of the underwriter in the preceding table.

 

 

 

 107 

 

 

The underwriter will offer the shares to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover of this prospectus and to selected dealers at the public offering price less a selling concession not in excess of $[●] per share. After this Underwritten Offering, the public offering price, concession and reallowance to dealers may be reduced by Benjamin Securities, Inc. No change in those terms will change the amount of proceeds to be received by us as set forth on the cover of this prospectus. The securities are offered by the underwriter as stated herein, subject to receipt and acceptance by them and subject to their right to reject any order in whole or in part.

 

Discounts, Commissions and Expenses

 

The following table shows the per share and total public offering price, underwriting discounts and commissions, and proceeds before expenses to us. These amounts are shown assuming both no exercise and full exercise of the underwriter’s option to purchase up to an additional 325,500 shares of common stock.

Public offering price  $   $   $ 
Underwriting discounts and commissions to be paid by us (7.0%)  $   $   $ 
Proceeds, before expenses, to us  $   $   $ 

 

We have also agreed to pay to the underwriter a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds of the Underwritten Offering.

 

In addition, we will also reimburse the underwriter for its out-of-pocket accountable expenses up to a maximum of $150,000, including, but not limited to, (A) fees of legal counsel; (B) background check fee; and (C) necessary travel expenses. We have paid a total of $60,000 as an advance to be applied towards reasonable out-of-pocket accountable expenses. Any advances will be returned to us to the extent the underwriter’s out-of-pocket accountable expenses are not actually incurred or are less than the advances paid in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(4).

 

We will also pay expenses relating to the offering, including the following: (i) all expenses incidental to the issuance and delivery of the common stock offered (including all printing and engraving costs, if any), (ii) all fees and expenses of the clearing firm, registrar and transfer agent, (iii) all necessary issue, transfer and other stamp taxes in connection with the offering, (iv) all fees and expenses of the Company’s counsel, independent public or certified public accountants and other advisors, (v) all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, printing, filing, shipping and distribution of the registration statement (including financial statements, exhibits, schedules, consents and certificates of experts), and (vi) all filing fees, attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with qualifying or registering (or obtaining exemptions from the qualification or registration of) all or any part of the common stock for offer and sale under the state securities or blue sky laws.

 

We estimate that the total expenses of the offering payable by us, excluding the underwriting discounts and commissions, non-accountable expense allowance and expenses, will be approximately $935,130. The company has already paid a portion of those expenses. As of October 31, 2024, the company’s estimated incremental offering expense is $276,162.

 

 

 

 108 

 

 

In addition, during the term of our engagement with the underwriter, we have agreed not to, directly or indirectly, offer any securities or solicit an offer to purchase any securities, or otherwise contact or enter into a discussion with any other party in connection with the structuring, issuance, sale, arrangement, offering or purchase of securities, other than through the underwriter. In addition, and without limitation foregoing, during the term of our engagement with the underwriter, we will not, and will not permit any of our affiliates, advisors, or other underwriter to engage any other party to perform any services or act in any capacity for which the underwriter has been engaged with respect to any potential transaction without the prior written consent of the underwriter.

 

In addition, subject to FINRA Rule 5110 (g)(5)(B), we have agreed that if, within 18 months of termination of our engagement with the underwriter, the closing of a transaction occurs in which we or any of our subsidiaries or immediate holding entity sells securities (including securities convertible into securities or substantially similar securities), or any securities substantially similar thereto, in an offering that is similar to the Underwritten Offering (except in the case of a termination by the underwriter or us for cause, as defined in our engagement letter with the underwriter), upon completion of such closing, the underwriter shall remain entitled to its underwriting fee, as if the closing of such sale had occurred during the term of the underwriter’s engagement and as if the securities sold were the securities to be offered hereby.

 

We have applied to list our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. No assurance can be given that our application will be approved or that the trading prices of our common stock on the OTC Pink Market will be indicative of the prices of our common stock if our common stock were traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If our application is not approved, the Underwritten Offering will not be completed. The Underwritten Offering is contingent upon final approval of the listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

 

Previously, we paid a fee of $100,000 upon signing the engagement letter with Prime Number Capital LLC, the former underwriter, whose engagement was terminated on August 20, 2024. The incurred out-of-pocket accountable expenses were $50,000, and upon termination, the remaining $50,000 was refunded to us in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(4)(A).

 

Right of First Refusal

 

We have agreed that for a period of 12 months from the closing of our initial public offering, the underwriter has the right to act as lead or joint investment banker, lead or joint book-runner, and/or lead or joint placement agent, for each and every future public and private equity and debt offering, including but not limited to, (i) any equity, equity-linked, debt or mezzanine financing or other investment in us (including a secondary sale or offering by security holders effected with our assistance); (ii) any tender offer or exchange offer for, debt, convertible debt securities; (iii) any merger, consolidation, sale, transfer or other disposition of all or a material portion of our stocks or assets; (iv) restructuring transactions including extraordinary dividend, stock repurchase, spin-off, which is operated by us or any successor to, or any of our subsidiaries; provided however, that this right of first refusal shall be contingent upon the written agreement by the underwriter to participate in any such subject transaction upon the terms and conditions that should contain reasonable and customary fees for transactions of similar size and nature; and provided further that in the event we terminate our agreement with the underwriter for cause (which shall mean a material failure to provide the underwritten services contemplated in its agreement with us), then such right of first refusal shall become null and void, in compliance with FINRA Rule 5110(g).

 

 

 

 109 

 

 

Indemnification

 

Pursuant to the underwriting agreement, we have agreed to indemnify the underwriter and certain of their controlling persons against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments that the underwriter or such other indemnified parties may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

 

Pricing of the Offering

 

Prior to this Underwritten Offering, our common stock was traded on the OTC Pink Market since February 9, 2022, and there was a limited public market for our common stock. The public offering price of the shares of common stock was negotiated between us and the underwriter. Among the factors considered in determining the public offering price of the shares, in addition to the prevailing market conditions, are our historical performance, estimates of our business potential and earnings prospects, an assessment of our management and the consideration of the above factors in relation to market valuation of companies in related businesses.

 

Lock-up Agreements

 

We, our directors, officers and certain stockholders have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to offer, pledge, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, or enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of our common stock or such other securities for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of this prospectus, without the prior written consent of Benjamin Securities, Inc.

 

Electronic Offer, Sale and Distribution of Securities

 

A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on the websites maintained by the underwriter or selling group members, if any, participating in this Underwritten Offering and the underwriter may distribute prospectuses electronically. The underwriter may agree to allocate a number of common stock to selling group members for sale to their online brokerage account holders. The common stock to be sold pursuant to internet distributions will be allocated on the same basis as other allocations. Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on these websites is not part of, nor incorporated by reference into, this prospectus or the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, has not been approved or endorsed by us or the underwriter, and should not be relied upon by investors.

 

Price Stabilization, Short Positions and Penalty Bids

 

In connection with this Underwritten Offering, the underwriter may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of our common stock. Specifically, the underwriter may sell more shares than they are obligated to purchase under the underwriting agreement, creating a short position. A short sale is covered if the short position is no greater than the number of shares available for purchase by the underwriter under option to purchase additional shares. The underwriter can close out a covered short sale by exercising the option to purchase additional shares or purchasing shares in the open market. In determining the source of shares to close out a covered short sale, the underwriter will consider, among other things, the open market price of shares compared to the price available under the option to purchase additional shares. The underwriter may also sell shares in excess of the option to purchase additional shares, creating a naked short position. The underwriter must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriter is concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the shares in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering.

 

The underwriter may also impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter or dealer repays selling concessions allowed to it for distributing our common stock in this Underwritten Offering because such underwriter repurchases those shares in stabilizing or short covering transactions.

 

 

 

 110 

 

 

Finally, the underwriter may bid for, and purchase, our common stock in market making transactions, including “passive” market making transactions as described below.

 

These activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of our common stock at a price that is higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the absence of these activities. The underwriter is not required to engage in these activities and may discontinue any of these activities at any time without notice. These transactions may be effected on the Nasdaq Capital Market, in the over-the-counter market, or otherwise.

 

Passive Market Making

 

In connection with this Underwritten Offering, the underwriter may engage in passive market making transactions in our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market in accordance with Rule 103 of Regulation M under the Exchange Act, during a period before the commencement of offers or sales of the shares and extending through the completion of the distribution. A passive market maker must display its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid of that security. However, if all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker’s bid, then that bid must then be lowered when specified purchase limits are exceeded.

 

Potential Conflicts of Interest

 

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

 

Other Relationships

 

The underwriter and certain of its affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage activities. Some of the underwriter and certain of its affiliates may in the future engage in investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with us and our affiliates, for which they may in the future receive customary fees, commissions and expenses.

 

In addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the underwriter and its affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. The underwriter and its affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

During the two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through September 11, 2024, there was no disagreement between Michael T. Studer CPA P.C. and us on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to its satisfaction, would have caused Michael T. Studer CPA P.C. to make reference to the subject matter of such disagreement in connection with its report. During the same period, there was no “reportable event,” as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

 

On June 13, 2012, Freedom Petroleum Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada. In May 2015, Freedom Petroleum changed its name to Steampunk Wizards, Inc.; and on November 9, 2016, Steampunk Wizards changed its name to Tianci International, Inc. The Company is a holding company. As of July 31, 2024, the Company had one operating subsidiary, Roshing International Co., Limited (“Roshing”). The Company owns 90% of the capital stock of Roshing through RQS United, a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company’s fiscal year end is July 31.

  

On February 13, 2023, the Company incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary, Tianci Group Holding Limited, in the Republic of Seychelles.

 

Reorganization

 

On March 3, 2023 the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with RQS United Group Limited (“RQS United”) and RQS Capital Limited (“RQS Capital”), which was the sole shareholder of RQS United (the “Exchange Agreement”). RQS United owns 90% of the equity in Roshing International Co., Limited (“Roshing”), which is engaged in the business of providing global logistics services including ocean freight forwarding and related logistics solutions, distributing electronic components and providing software services. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, on March 6, 2023 RQS Capital transferred all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of RQS United to the Company, and the Company issued to RQS Capital 1,500,000 shares of our common stock and paid a cash price of $350,000 (the “Share Exchange”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company also issued a total of 700,000 shares of our common stock to nine employees or affiliates of Roshing to induce continued services to Roshing.

 

As a result of the Share Exchange, RQS United became our wholly-owned subsidiary and the former RQS United stockholder became our controlling stockholder. The share exchange transaction was treated as a reverse acquisition, with RQS United as the acquirer and the Company as the acquired party for accounting purposes. Unless the context suggests otherwise, when we refer in this report to business and financial information for periods prior to the consummation of the reverse acquisition, we are referring to the business and financial information of RQS United and its consolidated subsidiary, Roshing.

 

Prior to the Share Exchange, the Company was a shell company as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act. As a result of the transactions under the Exchange Agreement, the Company ceased to be a shell company.

 

RQS United is a holding company incorporated on November 4, 2022 in the Republic of Seychelles. RQS United has no substantive operations other than holding 90% of the outstanding share capital of its subsidiary, Roshing, which was incorporated on June 22, 2011 in Hong Kong, is principally engaged in global logistics services. Less than 4% of its revenue for the nine months ended July 31, 2024 was derived from other business lines: sales of electronic device hardware components, development of logistics software and websites, technical consulting, and software maintenance. Roshing’s business is primarily carried out in Hong Kong.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Three Months Ended October 31,2024

(Unaudited)

 

Results of the three months ended October 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending July 31, 2025 or any other future periods. 

 

Principles of consolidation

 

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

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The estimates and judgments will also affect the reported amounts for certain revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these good faith estimates and judgments.

 

Foreign currency translation and transactions

 

The Company uses the U.S. dollar as its reporting currency and functional currency. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

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

 

Accounts receivable, net

 

Accounts receivable include trade accounts due from customers which are generally collected within six months. In establishing the allowance for doubtful accounts, management considers historical collection experience, aging of the receivables, the economic environment, industry trend analysis, and the credit history and financial condition of the customer. Management reviews its receivables on a regular basis to determine if the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate, and adjusts the allowance when necessary. Delinquent account balances are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable. As of October 31, 2024 and July 31, 2024, no allowance for doubtful accounts was deemed necessary.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The accounting standard regarding fair value of financial instruments and related fair value measurements defines financial instruments and requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company.

  

 

 

 F-7 

TIANCI INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Three Months Ended October 31,2024

(Unaudited)

 

The accounting standard defines fair value, establishes as a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follow:

 

· Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) 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, quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in inactive markets and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.
   
· Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

 

Financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities (such as cash, accounts receivable, due from related party, accounts payable, and due to related parties) are reported in the consolidated balance sheets at cost, which approximates fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization.

 

Revenue recognition

 

The Company follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606. This standard requires the use of a five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The five-step model requires that the Company (i) identifies the contract with the customer, (ii) identifies the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determines the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocates the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognizes revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligations.

 

The Company records revenue net of sales taxes which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities and are excluded from the transaction price.

 

The Company’s revenue recognition policies are as follows:

 

a. Global Logistics Services

 

The Company provides global logistics services, including ocean freight forwarding and related logistics solutions. As a non-asset-based carrier, the Company does not own transportation assets.

 

The Company derives its revenues by entering into agreements that are generally comprised of a single performance obligation, which is that freight is shipped for and received by the customer via either container ships or general cargo vessels. The most significant drivers of changes in gross revenues and related transportation expenses are volume and weight.

 

In general, each shipment transaction or service order constitutes a separate contract with the customer. A performance obligation is created once a customer agreement with an agreed upon transaction price exists. The transaction price, which is based on volume, weight, and shipping time, is fixed and not contingent upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any other event.

 

The Company typically satisfies its performance obligations at a point in time when freight is shipped to destination port and accepted by its customers. The Company does not have significant variable consideration in its contracts. Taxes assessed concurrently with a specific revenue-producing transaction that are collected by the Company from a customer are excluded from revenues.

The Company evaluates whether amounts billed to customers should be reported as gross or net revenue. Revenue is recorded on a gross basis when the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the services, when it assumes risk of loss, when it has discretion in setting the prices for the services to the customers, and when the Company has the ability to direct the use of the services provided by the third party. In most cases we act as an indirect carrier. When acting as an indirect carrier, we issue a Fixture Note to customers as the contract of carriage. In turn, when the freight is physically tendered to a direct carrier, we receive a Master Ocean Bill of Lading.

 

The Company’s evaluation determined that it is in control of establishing the transaction price, managing all aspects of the shipment process and assumes the risk of loss for delivery, collection, and returns. Based on its evaluation of the control of services and risk involved, the Company determined that it acts as a principal rather than an agent in global logistics service arrangements and such revenues are reported on a gross basis.

 

b. Electronic Device Hardware Components Products Sales

 

The Company is a distributor of electronic device hardware components and generates revenue through resale of these components. The Company’s products include high performance computer chips, Wi-Fi modules, Bluetooth modules, 4G network modules, LED screens, and touch screens. In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue Recognition: Principal Agent Consideration, an entity is a principal if it controls the specified good or service before that good or service is transferred to a customer. Otherwise, the entity is an agent in the transaction. The Company evaluates three indicators of control in accordance with ASC 606: 1) For hardware sales, the Company is the most visible entity to customers and assumes fulfillment risk and risks related to the acceptability of products, including addressing customer complaints directly and handling of product returns or refunds directly; 2) The Company is exposed to inventory risk before transfer of control to customers; and 3) The Company determines the resale price of hardware products. After evaluating the above circumstances, the Company considers itself the principal of these arrangements and records hardware sales revenue on a gross basis.

 

Hardware sales contracts are on a fixed price basis with no separate sales rebate, discount, or other incentive. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when the Company has delivered products that have been accepted by its customer with no future obligations. The Company generally permits returns of products due to product failure; however, returns are historically insignificant.

 

c. Software and Website Development Services

 

The Company generates revenue by developing customized freight shipping and related logistic software and websites, which are generally on a fixed-priced basis. The software helps wholesalers, ecommerce retailers, and freight shipping providers to manage complex workflows and improve work efficiency. The Company generally has no enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date and is only entitled to payment after software is fully developed, delivered, tested, and accepted by the customer. As a result, revenues from software development contracts are recognized at a point in time when services are fully rendered, and written acceptances have been received from customers.

  

d. Technical Consulting and Training Services

 

The Company provides technical consulting and training services to help customers, generally its existing customers, to better understand and properly use its customized software and related hardware. Services are generally carried out on a per-time fixed rate basis. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when service is rendered and the customer confirms the completion of consulting or training.

e. Software Maintenance and Business Promotion Services

 

The Company provides software maintenance services to keep customers’ software up to date and assists customers in promoting business with ongoing marketing support. The Company charges a flat rate for a fixed duration on a subscription basis, generally 12 months. Revenue is recognized ratably each month over the contract period.

 

f. Business Consulting Services

 

The Company provides business consulting services to help customers apply for immigration and non-immigration visas. The Company is responsible for performing background checks, case analysis, and preparing related application paper works. The Company charges a flat fee for the visa application services. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when an application is submitted with proper authorities.

 

Cost of revenues

 

For global logistics services, cost of revenue consists primarily of cargo space charged by direct ocean carriers, freight forwarders and ancillary logistics services fees.

 

For hardware products sales, the cost of revenue consists primarily of the costs of hardware products sold.

 

For software, consulting, services-based revenue, the cost of revenue consists primarily of costs paid to outsourced service providers and compensation expenses paid the Company’s service vendor.

 

Advertising costs

 

Advertising costs amounted to $0 for the three months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in selling and marketing expenses.

 

Operating leases

 

Effective August 1, 2022, the Company adopted FASB ASU 2016-02, “Leases” (Topic 842), and elected the practical expedients that does not require the Company to reassess: (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are, or contain, leases, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. For lease terms of twelve months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election not to recognize lease assets and liabilities. The Company also adopted the practical expedient that allows lessees to treat the lease and non-lease components of a lease as a single lease component. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02 effective August 1, 2022, the Company recognized a $8,704 right of use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liabilities in January 2023 based on the present value of the future minimum rental payments of leases, using an incremental borrowing rate of 5%.

 

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

(Unaudited)

 

Lease payments for an operating lease transitioning to ASC 842 using the effective date are based on future payments at the transition date and on the present value of lease payments over the remaining lease term. Since the implicit rate for the Company’s leases is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis, an amount equal to the lease payments, in a similar economic environment and over a similar term.

 

Lease terms used to calculate the present value of lease payments generally do not include any options to extend, renew, or terminate the lease, as the Company does not have reasonable certainty at lease inception that these options will be exercised. The Company generally considers the economic life of its operating lease ROU assets to be comparable to the useful life of similar owned assets. The Company has elected the short-term lease exception; therefore, operating lease ROU assets and liabilities do not include leases with a lease term of twelve months or less. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

The Company reviews the impairment of its ROU 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 lease for the Company’s Hong Kong office facility was early terminated in September 2023, which resulted in a derecognition of $6,080 right of use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liabilities in August 2023.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for current income taxes in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. The charge for taxation is based on the results for the fiscal year as adjusted for items which are non-taxable or non-deductible. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

 

Deferred taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable income (loss). In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Deferred tax is calculated using tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the statements of operations, except when it is related to items credited or charged directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is dealt with in equity. Net deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax asset will not be realized.

 

An uncertain tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax for uncertain tax positions are classified as income tax expenses in the period incurred.

 

During the year ended July 31, 2024, the Company incurred an IRS penalty of $47,030 for failure to update certain foreign-owned information schedules in a timely manner. The penalty is included in other expense in the statements of operations for the year ended July 31, 2024. During the three months ended October 31, 2024, the Company received a refund $24,953 from the IRS for the penalty previously charged. The refund is included in other income in the statements of operations for the three months ended October 31, 2024.

 

The Hong Kong tax returns filed for 2019 and subsequent years are subject to examination by the applicable tax authorities.

 

The US tax returns filed for 2021 and subsequent years are subject to examination by the applicable tax authorities.

Earnings (loss) per share

 

The Company computes earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. ASC 260 requires companies to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS presents the diluted effect on a per share basis of the potential shares of common stock (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 shares of common stock 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. As of October 31, 2024 and July 31, 2024, there were 8,000,000 dilutive shares outstanding related to the convertible Series B Preferred Stock. Each share of Series B and Series A Preferred Stock is and was convertible by the holder of the share into 100 shares of common stock, subject to equitable adjustment of the conversion rate.

 

Noncontrolling Interests

 

The Company’s noncontrolling interest represents the minority shareholder’s 10% ownership interest in Roshing. The noncontrolling interest is presented in the consolidated balance sheets separately from stockholders’ equity attributable to Tianci. Noncontrolling interest in the results of Roshing are presented on the consolidated statements of operations as allocations of the total income or loss of Roshing between the noncontrolling interest holder and the shareholders of RQS United.

 

Related parties

 

Parties, which can be a corporation, other business entity, or an individual, are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.

 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

 

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued.

 

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, which is an update to ASU Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduced the expected credit losses methodology for the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost basis, replacing the previous incurred loss methodology. The amendments in Update 2016-13 added Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses, and made several consequential amendments to the Codification. Update 2016-13 also modified the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities, which must be individually assessed for credit losses when fair value is less than the amortized cost basis, in accordance with Subtopic 326-30, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses — Available-for-Sale Debt Securities. The amendments in this Update provide an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option for certain financial assets previously measured at amortized cost basis. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, which updates the effective date of ASU No. 2016-13 for private companies, not-for-profit organizations and certain smaller reporting companies. The new effective date for these preparers is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. ASU 2019-05 is effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning August 1, 2023 as the Company is qualified as a smaller reporting company. The adoption of this standard on August 1, 2023 has not had and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s future consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The amendments in this Update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption of this standard on August 1, 2022 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Except as mentioned above, the Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated Financial Statements.

 

NOTE 3 – PUBLIC OFFERING AND DEFERRED OFFERING COSTS

 

On March 14, 2024, the Company executed an agreement with Prime Number Capital LLC (“Prime”) for Prime to act as the Company’s Lead Underwriter on a “firm commitment” basis in connection with a public offering of shares of the Company’s common stock. The agreement provides for compensation to Prime of, among other things, (1) Underwriter’s Commission equal to 7.0% of Gross Proceeds, (2) Non-accountable Expenses equal to 1.0% of Gross Proceeds, (3) Underwriter’s warrants equal to 5.0% of the shares issued in the offering, and (4) a cash advance of $100,000 offsetable against the Underwriter’s Commission (of which the Company paid $50,000 to Prime on March 14, 2024). Prime’s obligation to initiate the offering is subject to satisfaction of several conditions, and there is no assurance that the offering will occur.

 

As of October 31, 2024, deferred offering costs relating to the public offering consist of:

   
Cash advance to Prime  $100,000

Three Months Ended October 31,2024

(Unaudited)

 

For the three months ended October 31, 2024, the loss before provision for income taxes of $89,759, consisted of United States source loss of $(103,024) and Hong Kong source income of $11,076. For the three months ended October 31, 2023, the income before provision for income taxes of $13,001 consisted of United States source loss of $(102,833) and Hong Kong source income of $115,834.

 

Significant components of the provision for income taxes are as follows:

      
   For the three months ended
  

October 31,

2024

 

October 31,

2023

       
Current Hong Kong  $2,189   $19,113 
Deferred Hong Kong        
Provision for income taxes  $2,189   $19,113 

 

The following table reconciles the Hong Kong statutory rates to the Company’s Hong Kong effective tax rate:

      
   For the three months ended
  

October 31,

2024

 

October 31,

2023

       
Hong Kong statutory income tax rate   16.50%    16.50% 
Effective tax rate   16.50%    16.50% 

 

For United States income tax purposes, Tianci has a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $1,519,000 at October 31, 2024. Management has not determined that it is more likely than not that this carryforward will be realized and thus the Company maintained a 100% valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to the United States net operating loss carryforward. Current United States income tax law limits the amount of loss available to offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs.

 

Uncertain tax positions

 

The Company evaluates each uncertain tax position (including the potential application of interest and penalties) based on the technical merits, and measures the unrecognized benefits associated with the tax positions. As of October 31, 2024 and July 31, 2024, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

 

As of July 31, 2024, tax years 2021 and forward generally remain open for examination for United States Federal and State tax purposes and tax years 2019 and forward generally remain open for examination for Hong Kong tax purposes.

NOTE 7 — CONCENTRATION OF RISK

 

Credit risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash held in banks. The cash balance in each financial institution in the United States is insured by the FDIC up to $250,000. As of October 31, 2024, no United States account balance exceeded $250,000. The Hong Kong Deposit Protection Board pays compensation up to a limit of HKD 500,000 (approximately US$64,000) if the bank with which an individual/company holds its eligible deposit fails. As of October 31, 2024, a cash balance of $ 228,644 was maintained at a financial institution in Hong Kong of which approximately $158,000 was subject to credit risk. Management believes that the financial institution is of high credit quality and continually monitors its credit worthiness.

  

Customer concentration risk

 

For the three months ended October 31, 2024, two customers accounted for 56.5%, and 19.7% of the Company’s total revenues.

 

For the three months ended October 31, 2023, two customers accounted for 61.2% and 13.1% of the Company’s total revenues.

For the year ended July 31, 2024, three vendors accounted for 59.0%, 20.6% and 1.3% of the Company’s total purchases. For the three months ended October 31, 2023, two vendors accounted for 65.9% and 13.7% of the Company’s total purchases.

NOTE 8— COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Lease commitments

 

On January 1, 2021, Roshing entered into an operating lease agreement for office space in Hong Kong with a third party. The agreement had a term of two years and provided for monthly rent of HKD 2,800 (approximately $360). On January 13, 2023, the Company entered a new operating lease agreement for office space in Hong Kong with a third party for two years with monthly rent of HKD 3,000 (approximately $382). Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02 effective August 1, 2022, the Company recognized a $8,704 right of use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liabilities in January 2023 based on the present value of the future minimum rental payments of leases, using an incremental borrowing rate of 5%. The Company’s lease agreement does not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The lease does not contain an option to extend at the time of expiration. The lease was early terminated in September 2023 which resulted in a derecognition of $6,080 right of use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liabilities in August 2023.

 

In September 2023, the Company entered into a one-year office rental service agreement with a monthly lease payment of approximately $828 (HKD 6,500). In September 2024, the Company further renewed the lease for one year with a monthly lease payment of approximately $847 (HKD 6,650).

 

Rent expenses were $2,522 and $3,184 for the three months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of

Tianci International, Inc.

 

OPINION ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Tianci International, Inc. (the “Company”) as of July 31, 2024 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year 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 Tianci International, Inc. as of July 31, 2024 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

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.

TIANCI INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the years ended July 31, 2024 and 2023

 

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

 

On June 13, 2012, Freedom Petroleum Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada. In May 2015, Freedom Petroleum changed its name to Steampunk Wizards, Inc.; and on November 9, 2016, Steampunk Wizards changed its name to Tianci International, Inc. The Company is a holding company. As of July 31, 2024, the Company had one operating subsidiary, Roshing International Co., Limited (“Roshing”). The Company owns 90% of the capital stock of Roshing through RQS United, a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company’s fiscal year end is July 31.

  

On February 13, 2023, the Company incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary, Tianci Group Holding Limited, in the Republic of Seychelles.

 

Reorganization

 

On March 3, 2023 the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with RQS United Group Limited (“RQS United”) and RQS Capital Limited (“RQS Capital”), which was the sole shareholder of RQS United (the “Exchange Agreement”). RQS United owns 90% of the equity in Roshing International Co., Limited (“Roshing”), which is engaged in the business of providing global logistics services including ocean freight forwarding and related logistics solutions, distributing electronic components and providing software services. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, on March 6, 2023 RQS Capital transferred all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of RQS United to the Company, and the Company issued to RQS Capital 1,500,000 shares of our common stock and paid a cash price of $350,000 (the “Share Exchange”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company also issued a total of 700,000 shares of our common stock to nine employees or affiliates of Roshing to induce continued services to Roshing.

 

As a result of the Share Exchange, RQS United became our wholly-owned subsidiary and the former RQS United stockholder became our controlling stockholder. The share exchange transaction was treated as a reverse acquisition, with RQS United as the acquirer and the Company as the acquired party for accounting purposes. Unless the context suggests otherwise, when we refer in this report to business and financial information for periods prior to the consummation of the reverse acquisition, we are referring to the business and financial information of RQS United and its consolidated subsidiary, Roshing.

 

Prior to the Share Exchange, the Company was a shell company as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act. As a result of the transactions under the Exchange Agreement, the Company ceased to be a shell company.

 

RQS United is a holding company incorporated on November 4, 2022 in the Republic of Seychelles. RQS United has no substantive operations other than holding 90% of the outstanding share capital of its subsidiary, Roshing, which was incorporated on June 22, 2011 in Hong Kong, is principally engaged in global logistics services. Less than 4% of its revenue for the year ended July 31, 2024 was derived from other business lines: sales of electronic device hardware components, development of logistics software and websites, technical consulting, and software maintenance. Roshing’s business is primarily carried out in Hong Kong.

 

Going Concern Uncertainty

 

The accompanying consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of July 31, 2023, the Company had cash of $256,342 and a working capital deficit of $284,542. For the year ended July 31, 2023, the Company had total operating revenues of $452,409 and a net loss of $356,089. These factors among others raised substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time as of October 20, 2023, the issuance date of the July 31, 2023 Financial Statements. As of October 20, 2023, Management plans were to seek debt and/or equity financing to operate until such time as the Company has established sufficient ongoing revenues to cover its costs. The July 31, 2023 financial statements did not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

As of July 31, 2024, the Company had cash of $413,129 and positive working capital of $788,354. For the year ended July 31, 2024, the Company had total operating revenues of $8,617,265 and net income of $110,320. For these reasons, the Company believes that the going concern uncertainty has been alleviated as of July 31, 2024.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

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

 

Principles of consolidation

 

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

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The estimates and judgments will also affect the reported amounts for certain revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these good faith estimates and judgments.

 

Foreign currency translation and transactions

 

The Company uses the U.S. dollar as its reporting currency and functional currency. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

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

  

Accounts receivable, net

 

Accounts receivable include trade accounts due from customers which are generally collected within six months. In establishing the allowance for doubtful accounts, management considers historical collection experience, aging of the receivables, the economic environment, industry trend analysis, and the credit history and financial condition of the customer. Management reviews its receivables on a regular basis to determine if the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate, and adjusts the allowance when necessary. Delinquent account balances are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable. As of July 31, 2024 and 2023, no allowance for doubtful accounts was deemed necessary.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The accounting standard regarding fair value of financial instruments and related fair value measurements defines financial instruments and requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company.

 

 

 

 F-28 

 

 

TIANCI INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the years ended July 31, 2024 and 2023

 

The accounting standard defines fair value, establishes as a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follow:

 

·   Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) 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, quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in inactive markets and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.
     
·   Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

 

Financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities (such as cash, accounts receivable, due from related party, accounts payable, and due to related parties) are reported in the consolidated balance sheets at cost, which approximates fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization.

 

Revenue recognition

 

The Company follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606. This standard requires the use of a five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The five-step model requires that the Company (i) identifies the contract with the customer, (ii) identifies the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determines the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocates the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognizes revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligations.

 

The Company records revenue net of sales taxes which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities and are excluded from the transaction price.

 

The Company’s revenue recognition policies are as follows:

 

a. Global Logistics Services

 

The Company provides global logistics services, including ocean freight forwarding and related logistics solutions. As a non-asset-based carrier, the Company does not own transportation assets.

 

The Company derives its revenues by entering into agreements that are generally comprised of a single performance obligation, which is that freight is shipped for and received by the customer via either container ships or general cargo vessels. The most significant drivers of changes in gross revenues and related transportation expenses are volume and weight.

 

In general, each shipment transaction or service order constitutes a separate contract with the customer. A performance obligation is created once a customer agreement with an agreed upon transaction price exists. The transaction price, which is based on volume, weight, and shipping time, is fixed and not contingent upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any other event.

TIANCI INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the years ended July 31, 2024 and 2023

 

The Company typically satisfies its performance obligations at a point in time when freight is shipped to destination port and accepted by its customers. The Company does not have significant variable consideration in its contracts. Taxes assessed concurrently with a specific revenue-producing transaction that are collected by the Company from a customer are excluded from revenues.

 

The Company evaluates whether amounts billed to customers should be reported as gross or net revenue. Revenue is recorded on a gross basis when the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the services, when it assumes risk of loss, when it has discretion in setting the prices for the services to the customers, and when the Company has the ability to direct the use of the services provided by the third party. In most cases we act as an indirect carrier. When acting as an indirect carrier, we issue a Fixture Note to customers as the contract of carriage. In turn, when the freight is physically tendered to a direct carrier, we receive a Master Ocean Bill of Lading.

 

The Company’s evaluation determined that it is in control of establishing the transaction price, managing all aspects of the shipment process and assumes the risk of loss for delivery, collection, and returns. Based on its evaluation of the control of services and risk involved, the Company determined that it acts as a principal rather than an agent in global logistics service arrangements and such revenues are reported on a gross basis.

 

b. Electronic Device Hardware Components Products Sales

 

The Company is a distributor of electronic device hardware components and generates revenue through resale of these components. The Company’s products include high performance computer chips, Wi-Fi modules, Bluetooth modules, 4G network modules, LED screens, and touch screens. In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue Recognition: Principal Agent Consideration, an entity is a principal if it controls the specified good or service before that good or service is transferred to a customer. Otherwise, the entity is an agent in the transaction. The Company evaluates three indicators of control in accordance with ASC 606: 1) For hardware sales, the Company is the most visible entity to customers and assumes fulfillment risk and risks related to the acceptability of products, including addressing customer complaints directly and handling of product returns or refunds directly; 2) The Company is exposed to inventory risk before transfer of control to customers; and 3) The Company determines the resale price of hardware products. After evaluating the above circumstances, the Company considers itself the principal of these arrangements and records hardware sales revenue on a gross basis.

 

Hardware sales contracts are on a fixed price basis with no separate sales rebate, discount, or other incentive. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when the Company has delivered products that have been accepted by its customer with no future obligations. The Company generally permits returns of products due to product failure; however, returns are historically insignificant.

  

c. Software and Website Development Services

 

The Company generates revenue by developing customized freight shipping and related logistic software and websites, which are generally on a fixed-priced basis. The software helps wholesalers, ecommerce retailers, and freight shipping providers to manage complex workflows and improve work efficiency. The Company generally has no enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date and is only entitled to payment after software is fully developed, delivered, tested, and accepted by the customer. As a result, revenues from software development contracts are recognized at a point in time when services are fully rendered, and written acceptances have been received from customers.

d. Technical Consulting and Training Services

 

The Company provides technical consulting and training services to help customers, generally its existing customers, to better understand and properly use its customized software and related hardware. Services are generally carried out on a per-time fixed rate basis. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when service is rendered and the customer confirms the completion of consulting or training.

 

e. Software Maintenance and Business Promotion Services

 

The Company provides software maintenance service to keep customers’ software up to date and assists customers in promoting business with ongoing marketing support. The Company charges a flat rate for a fixed duration on a subscription basis, generally 12 months. Revenue is recognized ratably each month over the contract period.

 

f. Business Consulting Services

 

The Company provides business consulting services to help customers apply for immigration and non-immigration visas. The Company is responsible for performing background checks, case analysis, and preparing related application paper works. The Company charges a flat fee for the visa application services. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when an application is submitted with proper authorities.

 

Cost of revenues

 

For global logistics services, cost of revenue consists primarily of cargo space charged by direct ocean carriers, freight forwarders and ancillary logistics services fees.

 

For hardware products sales, the cost of revenue consists primarily of the costs of hardware products sold.

 

For software, consulting, services-based revenue, the cost of revenue consists primarily of costs paid to outsourced service providers and compensation expenses paid the Company’s service vendor.

  

Advertising costs

 

Advertising costs amounted to $0 and $192 for the years ended July 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in selling and marketing expenses.

Operating leases

 

Effective August 1, 2022, the Company adopted FASB ASU 2016-02, “Leases” (Topic 842), and elected the practical expedients that does not require the Company to reassess: (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are, or contain, leases, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. For lease terms of twelve months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election not to recognize lease assets and liabilities. The Company also adopted the practical expedient that allows lessees to treat the lease and non-lease components of a lease as a single lease component. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02 effective August 1, 2022, the Company recognized a $8,704 right of use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liabilities in January 2023 based on the present value of the future minimum rental payments of leases, using an incremental borrowing rate of 5%.

 

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

 

Lease payments for an operating lease transitioning to ASC 842 using the effective date are based on future payments at the transition date and on the present value of lease payments over the remaining lease term. Since the implicit rate for the Company’s leases is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis, an amount equal to the lease payments, in a similar economic environment and over a similar term.

 

Lease terms used to calculate the present value of lease payments generally do not include any options to extend, renew, or terminate the lease, as the Company does not have reasonable certainty at lease inception that these options will be exercised. The Company generally considers the economic life of its operating lease ROU assets to be comparable to the useful life of similar owned assets. The Company has elected the short-term lease exception; therefore, operating lease ROU assets and liabilities do not include leases with a lease term of twelve months or less. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

The Company reviews the impairment of its ROU 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 lease for the Company’s Hong Kong office facility was early terminated in September 2023, which resulted in a derecognition of $6,080 right of use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liabilities in August 2023.

Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for current income taxes in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. The charge for taxation is based on the results for the fiscal year as adjusted for items which are non-taxable or non-deductible. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

 

Deferred taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable income (loss). In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Deferred tax is calculated using tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the statements of operations, except when it is related to items credited or charged directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is dealt with in equity. Net deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax asset will not be realized.

 

An uncertain tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax for uncertain tax positions are classified as income tax expenses in the period incurred.

 

During the year ended July 31, 2024, the Company incurred a IRS penalty amount of $47,030 for failure to update certain foreign owned information schedules in a timely manner. The penalty is included in other expense in the statements of operations for the year ended July 31, 2024.

 

The Hong Kong tax returns filed for 2017 and subsequent years are subject to examination by the applicable tax authorities.

 

The US tax returns filed for 2021 and subsequent years are subject to examination by the applicable tax authorities.

 

Earnings (loss) per share

 

The Company computes earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. ASC 260 requires companies to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS presents the diluted effect on a per share basis of the potential common stock (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 stock 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. As of July 31, 2024 and 2023, there were 8,000,000 and 8,000,000 dilutive shares outstanding related to the convertible Series B Preferred Stock (at July 31, 2024) and convertible Series A Preferred Stock (at July 31, 2023) (see Note 5), respectively. Each share of Series B and Series A Preferred Stock is and was convertible by the holder of the share into 100 shares of common stock, subject to equitable adjustment of the conversion rate.

Noncontrolling Interests

 

The Company’s noncontrolling interest represents the minority shareholder’s 10% ownership interest in Roshing. The noncontrolling interest is presented in the consolidated balance sheets separately from stockholders’ equity attributable to Tianci. Noncontrolling interest in the results of Roshing are presented on the consolidated statements of operations as allocations of the total income or loss of Roshing between the noncontrolling interest holder and the shareholders of RQS United.

  

Related parties

 

Parties, which can be a corporation, other business entity, or an individual, are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.

 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

 

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued.

 

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, which is an update to ASU Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduced the expected credit losses methodology for the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost basis, replacing the previous incurred loss methodology. The amendments in Update 2016-13 added Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses, and made several consequential amendments to the Codification. Update 2016-13 also modified the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities, which must be individually assessed for credit losses when fair value is less than the amortized cost basis, in accordance with Subtopic 326-30, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses — Available-for-Sale Debt Securities. The amendments in this Update provide an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option for certain financial assets previously measured at amortized cost basis. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, which updates the effective date of ASU No. 2016-13 for private companies, not-for-profit organizations and certain smaller reporting companies. The new effective date for these preparers is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. ASU 2019-05 is effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning August 1, 2023 as the Company is qualified as a smaller reporting company. The adoption of this standard on August 1, 2023 has not had and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s future consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The amendments in this Update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption of this standard on August 1, 2022 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Except as mentioned above, the Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 6 – INCOME TAXES

 

Income Taxes

 

Seychelles

 

RQS United is incorporated in Seychelles and is not subject to tax on income generated outside of Seychelles under the current law. In addition, upon payment of dividends, no withholding tax is imposed under current law.

 

Hong Kong

 

Roshing is incorporated in Hong Kong and is subject to Hong Kong Profits Tax on the taxable income as reported in its statutory financial statements adjusted in accordance with relevant Hong Kong tax laws. The applicable tax rate is 8.25% in Hong Kong. Hong Kong income tax expenses (benefit) for the years ended July 31, 2024 and 2023 amounted to $35,906 and $12,095, respectively.

 

For the year ended July 31, 2024, the income before provision for income taxes of $110,320, consisted of United States source loss of $(448,384) and Hong Kong source income of $558,704. For the year ended July 31, 2023, the loss before provision for income taxes of $(343,994), consisted of United States source loss of $(207,297) and Hong Kong source loss of $(136,697).

Prior year over-accrual of provision for income taxes   (2.21%)    
Effective tax rate   6.04%    (8.80%)

 

For United States income tax purposes, Tianci has a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $1,416,000 at July 31, 2024. Management has not determined that it is more likely than not that this carryforward will be realized and thus the Company maintained a 100% valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to the United States net operating loss carryforward. Current United States income tax law limits the amount of loss available to offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs.

 

Uncertain tax positions

 

The Company evaluates each uncertain tax position (including the potential application of interest and penalties) based on the technical merits, and measures the unrecognized benefits associated with the tax positions. As of July 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

 

As of July 31, 2024, tax years 2021 and forward generally remain open for examination for United States Federal and State tax purposes and tax years 2017 and forward generally remain open for examination for Hong Kong tax purposes.

 

NOTE 7 — CONCENTRATION OF RISK

 

Credit risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash held in banks. The cash balance in each financial institution in the United States is insured by the FDIC up to $250,000. As of July 31, 2024, no United States account balance exceeded $250,000. The Hong Kong Deposit Protection Board pays compensation up to a limit of HKD 500,000 (approximately US$64,000) if the bank with which an individual/company holds its eligible deposit fails. As of July 31, 2024, a cash balance of $386,936 was maintained at a financial institution in Hong Kong of which approximately $323,000 was subject to credit risk. Management believes that the financial institution is of high credit quality and continually monitors its credit worthiness.

On January 1, 2021, Roshing entered into an operating lease agreement for office space in Hong Kong with a third party.

On January 13, 2023, the Company entered a new operating lease agreement for office space in Hong Kong with a third party for two years with monthly rent of HKD 3,000 (approximately $382). Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02 effective August 1, 2022, the Company recognized a $8,704 right of use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liabilities in January 2023 based on the present value of the future minimum rental payments of leases, using an incremental borrowing rate of 5%. The Company’s lease agreement does not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The lease does not contain an option to extend at the time of expiration. The lease was early terminated in September 2023 which resulted in a derecognition of $6,080 right of use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liabilities in August 2023.

 

In September 2023, the Company entered into a one-year office rental service agreement with a monthly lease payment of approximately $828 (HKD 6500).

Overview

 

The Company’s business is global logistics. The Company through its subsidiary, Roshing, provides global logistics services, encompassing booking and the transportation arrangement and related logistics solutions. Roshing’s customized logistics solutions are tailored to meet the diverse needs of its customers.

 

As a logistics shipping operator, Roshing focuses on ocean freight forwarding services, including container shipping and bulk goods shipping service.

 

For the container shipping service, Roshing charters cargo space from shipping suppliers (such as shipowners, ship carrier or non-vessel operating common carriers) and then sub-charters that cargo space to its customers (cargo owners or cargo agents). For the bulk goods shipping service, Roshing issues fixture notes to customers, and then arranges the booking of ships, and signs chartering contracts with suppliers (such as shipowners). Roshing also tailors the selection of transport options, and arranges to transport the goods from the port of loading to the port of destination, so as to complete the performance of the contract.

 

Roshing currently does not own or operate any transportation assets. By leveraging our senior management’s expertise in the global logistics industry and adopting an asset-light strategy at the early stage, Roshing has seen a significant growth in logistics revenue since 2023. Shufang Gao, our Chief Executive Officer previously worked for a globally renowned shipping conglomerate, with over 20 years of management experience. His expertise spans shipping operation management, and logistics transportation. Leveraging this experience, he has provided the Company with the managerial framework to expand its global logistics business, as well as access to relevant customer and supplier resources in the shipping industry. Roshing’s business is primarily carried out in Hong Kong and other locations in the Asia-Pacific region, mainly in Japan, South Korea, Vietnam. Roshing’s logistics services also include the shipment of goods to African countries.

 

Roshing also generates revenue from the sale of electronic parts, and certain business and technical consulting services, independent from its global logistics business.

 

Our Services

 

Our operations conducted through Roshing include providing the following services to our customers.

 

1. Global Logistics Services

 

Our global logistics services provided through Roshing accounted for 96.6% of our revenue for the year ended July 31, 2024 and 92.6% for the three months ended October 31, 2024. These services encompass ocean shipping operations and related logistics solutions. Roshing focuses on ocean freight forwarding services, including container shipping and bulk goods shipping. Roshing customizes its logistics solutions to meet the diverse needs of our customers, including the optimization of shipping routes and the utilization of vessels with different tonnages.

 

Roshing derives revenues by entering into agreements that are generally comprised of a single performance obligation to ship freight either by container ships or by bulk cargo vessels. The most significant drivers of changes in Roshing’s global logistics service revenue and related transportation expenses are cargo volume, weight and sea route.

 

 

 

 R-2 

 

 

Our Service Process

 

Roshing has long-term and close relationships with ocean shipping suppliers. When a customer makes an inquiry to Roshing, we are usually able to offer competitive quotes and customize shipping solutions quickly.

 

Roshing begins by thoroughly evaluating the customer’s logistics needs, including the type of goods being shipped, the destination, and the required transportation time. Based on this information, Roshing designs an optimal transportation plan tailored to the customer’s specific requirements. This plan includes selecting the most efficient shipping routes, determining the appropriate container or vessel size and type, and considering any special handling or regulatory compliance requirements. Roshing then enters into a written contract with the customer for ocean shipping that can best meet the customer’s needs and aligns with the customer’s timeline and cargo specifications.

 

Roshing works with each customer to develop a cost-effective plan and service terms to meet the client’s needs. This involves detailed discussions to ensure that both parties have a clear understanding of expectations, costs, and responsibilities. Roshing will assign cargo space from an appropriate container ship or bulk cargo vessel based on the volume and weight of the shipment, minimize shipping costs, select the shortest route to save on freight, and choose the port closest to the customer’s destination.

 

Throughout the entire shipping process, Roshing maintains close oversight to ensure the safety and timely arrival of goods at the destination port. This involves real-time tracking and monitoring of the shipment, handling any unforeseen issues that may arise, and providing regular updates to the customer. By doing so, Roshing ensures that the goods are transported safely and arrive within the agreed timeframe, meeting all customer expectations.

 

We believe that Roshing stands out in the global logistics landscape because of its core strengths. Firstly, Roshing’s management’s extensive network and industry relationships empower us with access to a wide customer base, enabling tailored solutions for an array of logistics requirements. Additionally, Roshing’s collaboration with direct shipping suppliers ensures transparent service delivery. Moreover, our expertise in route optimization enables us to efficiently manage logistics routes and secure favorable terms for our clients. These strengths collectively position us as a competitive player in the industry.

Our Market Opportunities

 

The shipping industry holds significant potential, as indicated by BIMCO’s projections of substantial growth in ship supply and deliveries through 2025. With an expected increase of 9.1% in 2024 and 4.1% in 2025, and a fleet growth of 14.9% by 2025, we believe that the industry is poised for expansion. Cargo volumes are anticipated to grow steadily at a rate of 3-4% annually during this period. Moreover, the global economy is forecasted to experience moderate growth, with the IMF estimating rates of 3.1% in 2024 and 3.2% in 2025.

 

In the bulk cargo market, strong demand is being driven by factors such as heightened demand from China and export restrictions from Indonesia. We believe that the container shipping sector will also see opportunities. Disruptions like the 40-day blockade in the Red Sea in January 2024 have led to notable increases in freight rates. Additionally, ongoing container capacity shortages in China, which is expected to persist from the onset of the Chinese Spring Festival in 2024, could further elevate freight rates, offering potential benefits to shipowners.

 

Our Mission

 

Creating Value

 

As a global logistics enterprise, our primary mission is to provide customers with efficient, reliable, and safe shipping services that create value.

 

Promoting Global Trade & Connectivity

 

As an important component of global trade, we believe that global logistics enterprises have a mission to promote the development and connectivity of global trade and promote the prosperity and development of the global economy by facilitating cross-border operations for businesses. We are committed to cultivating a robust global network, both online and offline. The online part involves connecting with customers and suppliers through social media platforms. The offline part includes acquiring potential customers through exhibitions, recommendations, and other direct interactions.

 

Undertaking Social Responsibility

 

We believe that shipping companies also need to be socially responsible, pay attention to environmental protection, social welfare, promote sustainable development, and contribute to the prosperity and development of society.

 

We strive to optimize shipping routes and transportation plans to reduce energy consumption and emissions. Moreover, we intend to encourage our supply chain partners to adopt greener transportation and packaging methods, contributing to the sustainability of the entire industry. We also seek to actively participate in environmental projects and initiatives and collaborate with government and non-governmental organizations to focus on environmental protection.

Listing on OTC Pink Market

 

The Company’s common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink Market under the symbol “CIIT”. The quotations reported on the OTC Pink Market reflect inter-dealer prices without retail markup, markdown or commissions, and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

 

The Company’s common stock is thinly traded. The quoted bid and asked prices for the common stock vary significantly from week to week. An investor holding shares of the Company’s common stock may find it difficult to sell the shares and may find it impossible to sell more than a small number of shares at the quoted bid price.

 

Listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market

 

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink Market under the symbol “CIIT.” In connection with this offering, we have applied to list our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “CIIT.” If our listing application is approved, we expect to list our common stock on Nasdaq in connection with the Offering, at which point our common stock will cease to be traded on the OTC Pink Market. No assurance can be given that our listing application will be approved. Nasdaq listing requirements include, among other things, a stock price threshold. As a result, prior to effectiveness, we will need to take the necessary steps to meet Nasdaq listing requirements, which may include, but not be limited to, effectuating a reverse split of our common stock. If our application is not approved, the offering will not be completed. The offering is contingent upon final approval of the listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company

 

We are a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and have elected to take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosure available for smaller reporting companies. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the end of the fiscal year in which (1) we have a public common equity float of more than $250 million, or (2) we have annual revenues for the most recently completed fiscal year of more than $100 million and a public common equity float or public float of more than $700 million. We also would not be eligible for status as a smaller reporting company if we become an investment company, an asset-backed issuer or a majority-owned subsidiary of a parent company that is not a smaller reporting company.

 

 

 

 R-8 

 

 

We have elected to take advantage of certain of the reduced disclosure obligations in the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in future filings. As a result, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different from what you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.

 

Implications of Being a Controlled Company

 

Shufang Gao, our Chief Executive Officer, has voting control over approximately 62.11% of the aggregate voting power of the Company. And therefore, we currently meet the definition of a “controlled company” under the corporate governance standards for Nasdaq listed companies and for so long as we remain a controlled company under this definition, we are eligible to utilize certain exemptions from the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq. Upon the closing of the Offering, Shufang Gao will own approximately 56.71% of the voting power of our outstanding voting stock.

 

As long as Shufang Gao owns at least 50% of the voting power of our Company, we will be a “controlled company” as defined under the Nasdaq rules.

 

For so long as we are a controlled company under that definition, we are permitted to rely on certain exemptions from corporate governance rules, including:

 

  · an exemption from the rule that a majority of our Board must be independent directors;
     
  · an exemption from the rule that the compensation of our chief executive officer must be determined or recommended solely by independent directors; and
     
  · an exemption from the rule that our director nominees must be selected or recommended solely by independent directors.

 

Although we do not intend to rely on the “controlled company” exemption under Nasdaq listing rules, we could elect to rely on this exemption in the future. If we elect to rely on the “controlled company” exemption, a majority of the members of our Board might not be independent directors and our nominating and corporate governance and compensation committees might not consist entirely of independent directors.

 

As a result, you will not have the same protection afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to these corporate governance requirements.

Cash Flows through Our Organization

 

We are a holding company without operations of its own. We conduct our all operations through our Hong Kong subsidiary, Roshing. As a result, our ability to pay dividends depends upon dividends paid by Roshing. If our existing subsidiaries or any newly formed ones incur debt on their own behalf in the future, the instruments governing their debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends to Tianci. Under the current practice of the Inland Revenue Department of Hong Kong, no tax is payable in Hong Kong in respect of dividends paid by Roshing. The Mainland China laws and regulations do not currently have any material impact on transfers of cash from Roshing to Tianci or from Tianci to Roshing. The statutory reserve funds and the discretionary funds are not distributable as cash dividends. See “Regulations related to Hong Kong Taxation -Tax on dividends” on page 84.

 

We have established controls and procedures for cash flows within our organization. Our management team is the special task force that manages and supervises the transfers of funds among Tianci and its subsidiaries under the Cash Flow Management Policy, an internal policy adopted by Tianci. Under this policy, Tianci focuses on revenue management, cost control, working capital management, implementing financial strategies, and fulfilling compliance reporting duties. Our management team closely monitors and manages cash transfers within our organization by preparing monthly reports and annual budget plans. Each transfer of cash between Tianci, and a subsidiary is also subject to internal report and approval process by reference to such policy. Each transfer of cash between Tianci, RQS Capital, and a subsidiary or branch is also subject to an internal report and approval process by reference to such policy. In addition, cash transfers between Tianci, its subsidiaries, or investors shall follow the applicable Hong Kong laws and regulations.

SELLING STOCKHOLDER PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

The Selling Stockholders may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

 

  · ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
     
  · block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
     
  · purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
     
  · an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
     
  · privately negotiated transactions;
     
  · short sales effected after the date the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective by the SEC;
     
  · broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
     
  · a combination of any such methods of sale; and
     
  · any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The Selling Stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved. Any profits on the resale of shares of common stock by a broker-dealer acting as principal might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, attributable to the sale of shares will be borne by a Selling Stockholder. The Selling Stockholders may agree to indemnify any agent, dealer or broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving sales of the shares if liabilities are imposed on that person under the Securities Act.

 

The Selling Stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus after we have filed a supplement to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act supplementing or amending the list of Selling Stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as Selling Stockholders under this prospectus.

 

The Selling Stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus and may sell the shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus after we have filed a supplement to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act supplementing or amending the list of Selling Stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as Selling Stockholders under this prospectus.

 

 

 

 R-17 

 

 

The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares of common stock held by the Selling Stockholders or its transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest may be deemed to be “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares of common stock purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.

 

We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares of common stock held by the Selling Stockholders. We have agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

The Selling Stockholders have advised us that they have not entered into any agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriter or broker-dealers regarding the sale of their shares of common stock, nor is there an underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with a proposed sale of common stock by any Selling Stockholder. If we are notified by any Selling Stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of shares of his, her, or its common stock, if required, we will file a supplement to this prospectus. If the Selling Stockholders use this prospectus for any sale of their shares of common stock, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

 

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock held by the Selling Stockholders or its transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

 

We have advised the Selling Stockholders 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 Stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, to the extent applicable we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the Selling Stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders 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 have agreed with the Selling Stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earliest of (1) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement and (2) the date on which all of the shares may be sold without restriction pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

 

Selling Stockholder Resale Prospectus

 

As described in the Explanatory Note to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, the registration statement also contains the Resale Prospectus to be used in connection with the potential resale by certain Selling Stockholders of our common stock. These shares of common stock have been registered to permit public resale of such shares, and the Selling Stockholders may offer the shares for resale from time to time pursuant to the Resale Prospectus. The Selling Stockholders may also sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or a portion of their shares of common stock in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or pursuant to another effective registration statement covering those shares. Any shares sold by the Selling Stockholders will occur at prevailing market prices or in privately negotiated prices.

Nevada Law

 

Section 78.7502 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provides that a Nevada corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he is not liable under Section 78.138 of the Nevada Revised Statutes for breach of his or her fiduciary duties to the corporation or he acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

 

Section 78.7502 further provides a Nevada corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he is not liable under Section 78.138 of the Nevada Revised Statutes for breach of his or her fiduciary duties to the corporation or he acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation.

 

Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

 

To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any non-derivative proceeding or any derivative proceeding, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation shall indemnify him or her against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense.

 

 

 

 II-1 

 

 

Further, Nevada law permits a Nevada corporation to purchase and maintain insurance or to make other financial arrangements on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise for any liability asserted against him or her and liability and expenses incurred by him or her in his or her capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the corporation has the authority to indemnify him or her against such liability and expenses.

 

Charter Provisions

 

Pursuant to our bylaws, we may indemnify all of its officers and directors, past, present and future, against any and all expenses incurred by them, and each of them, including, but not limited to, legal fees, judgments and penalties which may be incurred, rendered or levied in any legal action brought against any or all of them for or on account of any act or omission alleged to have been committed while acting within the scope of their duties as officers or directors of the Company.

 

Pursuant to our articles, the expenses of officers and directors incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding must be paid by the Company as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding, or upon receipt of an undertaking or surety by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. Such right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other right which such directors, officers or underwriter may have or thereafter acquire, and, without limiting the generality of such statement, they shall be entitled to their respective rights of indemnification under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders, provision of law, or otherwise, as well as their rights under the article.

 

Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement to be filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this prospectus, we have agreed to indemnify the underwriter and the underwriter has agreed to indemnify us against certain civil liabilities that may be incurred in connection with the Underwritten Offering, including certain liabilities under the Securities Act.

Item 16. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

(i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”);

 

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

 

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

 

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

 

 

 II-3 

 

 

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:

 

(A) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

  

(B) Each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

(5) That for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

 

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

 

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

 

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to any charter provision, by law or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

 

(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

 

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Underwriters, their respective affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, members, employees and agents and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriters within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Underwriter Indemnified Parties,” and each a “Underwriter Indemnified Party”) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (including in settlement of any litigation if such settlement is effected with the prior written consent of the Company) arising out of (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, including the information deemed to be a part of the Registration Statement at the time of effectiveness and at any subsequent time pursuant to Rules 430A and 430B of the Securities Act Regulations, or arise out of or are based upon the omission from the Registration Statement, or alleged omission to state therein, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; or (ii) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any other materials used in connection with the Offering, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and shall reimburse such Underwriter Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with evaluating, investigating or defending against such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, expense or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement in, or omission from any preliminary prospectus, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any other materials used in connection with the Offering made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information. The indemnification obligations under this Section 8(a) are not exclusive and will be in addition to any liability, which the Underwriters might otherwise have and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available at law or in equity to each Underwriter Indemnified Party.

 

(b) Indemnification by the Underwriters. The Underwriters shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Company’s affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively the “Company Indemnified Parties” and each a “Company Indemnified Party”) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (including in settlement of any litigation if such settlement is effected with the prior written consent of the Underwriters) arising out (i) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Securities Act Regulations, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or (ii) the omission to state in any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Securities Act Regulations, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information and shall reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or preparing to defend or defending against or appearing as third party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action, investigation or proceeding, as such fees and expenses are incurred. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(b), in no event shall any indemnity by the Underwriters under this Section 8(b) exceed the total discounts received by the Underwriters in connection with the Offering. The indemnification obligations under this Section 8(b) are not exclusive and will be in addition to any liability, which the Company might otherwise have and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available at law or in equity to each Company Indemnified Party.

(c) Procedure. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify such indemnifying party in writing of the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 8 except to the extent it has been materially adversely prejudiced by such failure; and, provided, further, that the failure to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 8. If any such action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense of such action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party (which counsel shall not, except with the written consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party). After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such action, except as provided herein, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under Section 8(a) or 8(b), as applicable, for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense of such action other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that any indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense of such action but the fees and expenses of such separate counsel (other than reasonable costs of investigation) shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized in writing by the Company in the case of a claim for indemnification under Section 8(a), (ii) such indemnified party shall have been advised by its counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, or (iii) the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense of such action and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party within a reasonable period of time after notice of the commencement of the action or the indemnifying party does not diligently defend the action after assumption of the defense, in which case, if such indemnified party notifies the indemnifying party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of (or, in the case of a failure to diligently defend the action after assumption of the defense, to continue to defend) such action on behalf of such indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall be responsible for reasonable legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense of such action; provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for any such indemnified party (in addition to any local counsel), which firm shall be designated in writing by the Underwriters if the indemnified party under this Section 8 is an Underwriter Indemnified Party or by the Company if an indemnified party under this Section 8 is a Company Indemnified Party. Subject to this Section 8(c), the amount payable by an indemnifying party under Section 8 shall include, but not be limited to, (x) reasonable legal fees and expenses of counsel to the indemnified party and any other expenses in investigating, or preparing to defend or defending against, or appearing as a third party witness in respect of, or otherwise incurred in connection with, any action, investigation, proceeding or claim, and (y) all amounts paid in settlement of any of the foregoing. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of judgment with respect to any pending or threatened action or any claim whatsoever, in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 8 (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. Subject to the provisions of the following sentence, no indemnifying party shall be liable for settlement of any pending or threatened action or any claim whatsoever that is effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but if settled with its written consent, if its consent has been unreasonably withheld or delayed or if there be a judgment for the plaintiff in any such matter, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. In addition, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested that an indemnifying party reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated herein effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than ninety (90) days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the request for reimbursement, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least sixty (60) days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 8(a) or Section 8(b), then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid, payable or otherwise incurred by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, expense or liability (or any action, investigation or proceeding in respect thereof), as incurred, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other hand from the Offering, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) of this Section 8(d) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) of this Section 8(d) but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other with respect to the statements, omissions, acts or failures to act which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, expense or liability (or any action, investigation or proceeding in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations as determined in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds from the Offering purchased by investors as contemplated by this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts received by the Underwriters in connection with the Offering, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement, omission, act or failure to act; provided that the parties hereto agree that the written information furnished to the Company by the Underwriters for use in any preliminary prospectus, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, consists solely of the Underwriter Information. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 8(d) be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage, expense, liability, action, investigation or proceeding referred to above in this Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 8(d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending against or appearing as a third party witness in respect of, or otherwise incurred in connection with, any such loss, claim, damage, expense, liability, action, investigation or proceeding. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), the Underwriters shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the total discounts received in cash by the Underwriters in connection with the Offering less the amount of any damages that the Underwriters have otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission, act or alleged act or failure to act or alleged failure to act. No person, guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

SECTION 9. Termination of this Agreement.

 

Prior to the Closing Date, whether before or after notification by the Commission to the Company of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement under the Securities Act, this Agreement may be terminated by the Underwriters by written notice given to the Company if at any time (i) trading or quotation in the Common Stock shall have been suspended or limited by the Commission or by Nasdaq; (ii) a general banking moratorium shall have been declared by any U.S. federal authorities; or (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of national or international hostilities or any crisis or calamity, or any change in the United States or international financial markets, or any substantial change or development involving a prospective substantial change in United States’ or international political, financial or economic conditions that, in the reasonable judgment of the Underwriters, is material and adverse and makes it impracticable to market the Offered Securities in the manner and on the terms described in the Prospectus or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Offered Securities. Any termination pursuant to this Section 9 shall be without liability on the part of (a) the Company to any of the Underwriters, except that the Company shall be, subject to demand by the Underwriters, obligated to reimburse the Underwriters for only those reasonable, accountable and properly documented out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of their counsel, and expenses associated with a due diligence report), actually incurred by the Underwriters in connection herewith as allowed under FINRA Rule 5110, less any amounts previously paid by the Company; provided, however, that all such expenses shall not exceed $150,000 in the aggregate, (b) the Underwriters to the Company, or (c) of any party hereto to any other party except that the provisions of Section 4 (with respect to the reimbursement of out-of-pocket accountable, bona fide expenses actually incurred by the Underwriters) and Section 8 shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination.

SECTION 10. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. The Company hereby acknowledges that the Underwriters are acting solely as underwriters in connection with the Offering. The Company further acknowledges that the Underwriters are acting pursuant to a contractual relationship created solely by this Agreement entered into on an arm’s-length basis and in no event do the parties intend that the Underwriters act or be responsible as a fiduciary to the Company, its management, shareholders, creditors or any other person in connection with any activity that the Underwriters may undertake or have undertaken in furtherance of the Offering, either before or after the date hereof. The Underwriters hereby expressly disclaim any fiduciary or similar obligations to the Company, either in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters leading up to such transactions, and the Company hereby confirms its understanding and agreement to that effect. The Company hereby further confirms its understanding that no Underwriter has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to the Offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including, without limitation, any negotiation related to the pricing of the Offered Securities; and the Company has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate in connection with this Agreement and the Offering. The Company and the Underwriters agree that they are each responsible for making their own independent judgments with respect to any such transactions, and that any opinions or views expressed by the Underwriters to the Company regarding such transactions, including but not limited to any opinions or views with respect to the price or market for the Company’s securities, do not constitute advice or recommendations to the Company. The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company may have against the Underwriters with respect to any breach or alleged breach of any fiduciary or similar duty to the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any matters leading up to such transactions.

 

SECTION 11. Underwriter Default.

 

(a) If any Underwriter or Underwriters shall default in its or their obligation to purchase Firm Shares, and if the Firm Shares with respect to which such default relates (the “Default Securities”) do not (after giving effect to arrangements, if any, made by the Representative pursuant to subsection (b) below) exceed in the aggregate ten percent (10%) of the number of Firm Shares, each non-defaulting Underwriter, acting severally and not jointly, agrees to purchase from the Company that number of Default Securities that bears the same proportion to the total number of Default Securities then being purchased as the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter on Schedule A hereto bears to the aggregate number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the names of the non-defaulting Underwriters; subject, however, to such adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as the Representative in its sole discretion shall make.

 

(b) In the event that the aggregate number of Default Securities exceeds ten percent (10%) of the number of Firm Shares, the Representative may in its discretion arrange for itself or for another party or parties (including any non-defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters who so agree) to purchase the Default Securities on the terms contained herein. In the event that within five (5) calendar days after such a default the Representative does not arrange for the purchase of the Default Securities as provided in this Section 11, this Agreement shall thereupon terminate, without liability on the part of the Company with respect thereto (except in each case as provided in Sections 4, 8, 9, 11 and 12) or the Underwriters, but nothing in this Agreement shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters of their liability, if any, to the other Underwriters and the Company for damages occasioned by its or their default hereunder.

 

(c) In the event that any Default Securities are to be purchased by the non-defaulting Underwriters, or are to be purchased by another party or parties as aforesaid, the Representative or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date for a period, not exceeding five (5) Business Days, in order to effect whatever changes may thereby be necessary in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or in any other documents and arrangements, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus which, in the reasonable opinion of Underwriters’ counsel, may be necessary or advisable. The term “Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall include any party substituted under this Section 11 with like effect as if it had originally been a party to this Agreement with respect to such Default Securities.

 

SECTION 12. Representations and Indemnities to Survive Delivery; Third Party Beneficiaries. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, of its officers, and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriters or the Company or any of its or their partners, officers or directors or any controlling person, as the case may be, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Securities sold hereunder and any termination of this Agreement.

Benjamin Securities, Inc.

As the Representative of the Underwriters of the Company

3 West Garden Street, Suite 407

Pensacola, FL 32502

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

The undersigned understands that Benjamin Securities, Inc., the representative of the underwriters (the “Underwriters”), proposes to enter into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”), with Tianci International, Inc., a Nevada company (the “Company”), in connection with the public offering (the “Offering”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”).

 

To induce the Underwriter to continue its efforts in connection with the Offering, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter, the undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the final prospectus associated with the Offering (the “Lock-Up Period”), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Shares (collectively, the “Lock-Up Securities”); (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-Up Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of the Lock-Up Securities, in cash or otherwise; or (3) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing. The foregoing sentence shall not apply to (a) transactions relating to the Shares or other securities acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the Offering; (b) transfers of the Lock-Up Securities as a bona fide gift, by will or intestacy or to a family member or trust for the benefit of a family member (for purposes of this Lock-up Agreement, “family member” means any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin); provided that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to clause (b), each donee or distributee shall sign and deliver a lock-up letter substantially in the form of this Lock-up Agreement; (c) transfers of Lock-Up Securities to a charity or educational institution; (d) if the undersigned, directly or indirectly, controls a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity, any transfers of Lock-Up Securities to any shareholder, partner or member of, or owner of similar equity interests in, the undersigned, as the case may be; (e) if the undersigned is a trust, to a trustee or beneficiary of the trust; provided that in the case of any transfer pursuant to the foregoing clauses (b), (c) or (d), (i) any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (ii) each transferee shall sign and deliver to the Underwriter a Lock-up Agreement substantially in the form of this Lock-up Agreement, (iii) no filing under Sections 13 or 16(a) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or other filing or public announcement shall be required or shall be voluntarily made; (f) the receipt by the undersigned from the Company of common stock upon the vesting of restricted share awards or share units or upon the exercise of options to purchase the Company’s common stock issued under an equity incentive plan of the Company or an employment arrangement described in the Pricing Prospectus (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement) (the Plan Shares”) or the transfer of common stock or any securities convertible into common stock to the Company upon a vesting event of the Company’s securities or upon the exercise of options to purchase the Company’s securities, in each case on a “cashless” or “net exercise” basis or to cover tax obligations of the undersigned in connection with such vesting or exercise, but only to the extent such right expires during the Lock-up Period, provided that no filing under Sections 13 or 16(a) of the Exchange Act or other public announcement shall be required or shall be voluntarily made within ninety (90) days after the date of the Underwriting Agreement, and after such ninetieth (90th) day, if the undersigned is required to file a report under Section 13 or Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of common stock during the Lock-Up Period, the undersigned shall include a statement in such schedule or report to the effect that the purpose of such transfer was to cover tax withholding obligations of the undersigned in connection with such vesting or exercise and, provided further, that the Plan Shares shall be subject to the terms of this Lock-up Agreement; (g) the establishment of a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the transfer of Lock-Up Securities, provided that (i) such plan does not provide for the transfer of Lock-Up Securities during the Lock-Up Period and (ii) no public announcement or filing under the Exchange Act will be voluntarily made by or on behalf of the undersigned or the Company regarding the establishment of such plan; and (h) the transfer of Lock-Up Securities that occurs by operation of law, such as pursuant to a qualified domestic order or in connection with a divorce settlement, provided that the transferee agrees to sign and deliver a Lock-up Agreement substantially in the form of this Lock-up Agreement for the balance of the Lock-Up Period, and provided further, that any filing under Sections 13 or 16(a) of the Exchange Act that is required to be made during the Lock-Up Period as a result of such transfer shall include a statement that such transfer has occurred by operation of law (collectively, “Permitted Transfers”). In addition, the undersigned agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter, it will not, during the Lock-Up Period, make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any Shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Shares. The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent against the transfer of the undersigned’s Lock-Up Securities except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

 

 

 

 35 

 

 

No provision in this Lock-up Agreement shall be deemed to restrict or prohibit (i) the adoption of an equity incentive plan and the grant of awards or equity pursuant to any equity incentive plan, and the filing of a registration statement on Form S-8; provided, however, that any sales by parties to this Lock-up Agreement shall be subject to this Lock-up Agreement, (ii) the issuance of common stock in connection with the exercise of outstanding warrants of the Company; provided that this Lock-up Agreement shall apply to any of the undersigned’s shares issued upon such exercise, or (iii) the issuance of securities in connection with an acquisition or a strategic relationship which may include the sale or equity securities; provided, that none of such shares shall be saleable in the public market until the expiration of the one hundred eighty (180) day period described above.

 

If the undersigned is an officer or director of the Company, (i) the undersigned agrees that the foregoing restrictions shall be equally applicable to any securities that the undersigned may purchase in the Offering; and (ii) the Underwriter agrees that, at least three (3) business days before the effective date of any release or waiver of the foregoing restrictions in connection with a transfer of Lock-Up Securities, the Underwriter will notify the Company of the impending release or waiver. Any release or waiver granted by the Underwriter hereunder to any such officer or director shall only be effective two (2) business days after the release or waiver. The provisions of this paragraph will not apply if (a) the release or waiver is effected solely to permit a transfer of Lock-Up Securities not for consideration or in connection with any other Permitted Transfer and (b) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this Lock-up Agreement to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of such transfer.

 

The undersigned understands that the Company and the Underwriter are relying upon this Lock-up Agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the Offering. The undersigned further understands that this Lock-up Agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns.

 

The undersigned understands that, if (i) the Underwriting Agreement is not executed by November 18, 2025, (ii) the Company notifies the Underwriter in writing that it does not intend to proceed with the Offering or (iii) the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Shares to be sold thereunder, the undersigned shall be released from all obligations under this letter agreement.

 

Whether or not the Offering actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including market conditions. Any Offering will only be made pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company and the Underwriters. The undersigned acknowledges that no assurances are given by the Company or the Underwriter that any Offering will be consummated. This Lock-up Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York.

Re:Tianci International Inc. – Registration Statement on Form S-1

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as special Nevada counsel to Tianci International Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-280089), as amended, (the “Registration Statement”) as filed on even date herewith by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) for a public offering (the “Offering”). The Registration Statement relates to (i) the public offering of an aggregate of 2,170,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share in the Offering pursuant to an underwriting agreement dated [ ], 2024 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) between the Company and Benjamin Securities, Inc. as representative of the underwriters of the Offering (the “Underwriters”), (ii) an additional amount up to 325,500, or 15% of the total shares, of the Company’s common stock pursuant to an over-allotment option in favor of the Underwriters, as described in the Underwriting Agreement (the “Over-Allotment Shares”), and (iii) to the offer for sale of up to 3,260,000 shares of the Company’s common stock by the selling stockholders named in the Registration Statement (the “Resale Shares”).

 

As counsel to the Company, we have examined such matters of fact and questions of law as we have considered appropriate for purposes of rendering this opinion. With your consent, we have relied upon certificates and other assurances of officers of the Company and others (including government officials) as to factual matters without having independently verified such factual matters. We are opining herein as to the Nevada Revised Statutes, and we express no opinion with respect to the applicability thereto, or the effect thereon, of the laws of any other jurisdiction or, in the case of Nevada, any other laws, or as to any matters of municipal law or the laws of any local agencies within any state.

 

Based upon such examination, it is our opinion that (i) the Shares have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of the Company and upon their issuance, delivery and payment therefor in the manner contemplated by the Registration Statement will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, (ii) the Over-Allotment Shares, if issued upon exercise of the over-allotment option against payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and (iii) the Resale Shares are duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable

 

No opinion is expressed herein as to any matter pertaining to the contents of the Registration Statement.  In connection with this opinion, we have relied on oral or written statements and representations of officers or other representatives of the Company and others (including government officials).  Our knowledge of the Company and its legal and other affairs is limited by the scope of our engagement, which scope includes the delivery of this opinion letter. We do not represent the Company with respect to all legal matters or issues. The Company may employ other independent counsel and, may handle certain matters and issues without the assistance of independent counsel.

 

This opinion is given as of the date hereof.  We assume no obligation to advise you of changes that may hereafter be brought to our attention.

 

We consent to the inclusion of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and further consent to all references to us under the caption “Legal Matters” in the prospectus constituting a part of the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as counsel as to matters of United States federal laws, including tax law, to Tianci International, Inc., a Nevada company (the “Company”), in connection with the preparation and filing of the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-280089) and all amendments thereto (as amended, the “Registration Statement”), as originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on June 10, 2024.

 

We have examined the Registration Statement and such other documents, certificates and records, and have reviewed such questions of law, as we have considered necessary and appropriate for the purposes of our opinion set forth below.

 

In rendering our opinions set forth below, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the genuineness of all signatures and the conformity to authentic originals of all documents submitted to us as copies.

As to questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied upon factual statements and factual representations of officers of the Company.

 

Based upon and subject to the limitations, qualifications, exceptions and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

 

The statements made in the Registration Statement, under the caption “MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO NON-U.S. HOLDERS,” to the extent such statements relate to matters of United States tax law, represent our opinion. This opinion is given under Item 601 of Regulation S-K, as our opinion regarding tax matters. All such statements are based upon laws and relevant interpretations thereof in effect as of the date of the prospectus, all of which are subject to change. Further, there can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service or a court will not take a contrary position.

 

Our opinions expressed above are limited to the tax laws of the United States. We assume no obligation to revise or supplement this letter in the event of any changes in law or fact arising after the date hereof; provided, however, that our opinions set forth in the Registration Statement will be revised, if needed to remain accurate in all material respects as of the effective date of the Registration Statement.

 

We consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, and we further consent to the use of our name in the Registration Statement and the prospectus that forms a part thereof. In giving these consents, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Re: Legal Opinion on Certain Hong Kong Legal Matters

 

Dear Sirs or Madams,

 

We are qualified lawyers of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (“Hong Kong”) and as such are qualified to issue this opinion on the laws and regulations of Hong Kong effective as of the date hereof.

 

We were engaged as a legal adviser on matters of the laws of Hong Kong by TIANCI INTERNATIONAL, INC. (the “Company”, together with its subsidiaries, the “Group”), a company incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, in connection with the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-280089), including all amendments or supplements thereto (the “Registration Statement”), filed by the Company with the United States of America (the “United States” or the “U.S.”) Securities and Exchange Commission under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (as amended) in relation to the Company’s (a) proposed public offering (the “Offering”) of up to 2,170,000 shares of common stock (the “Shares”), par value US$0.0001 per Share, of the Company; (b) proposed resale of 3,260,000 Shares by certain existing shareholders of the Company; and (c) proposed listing of its Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

 

A.Documents and assumptions

 

In rendering this opinion, we have carried out review and examined copies of the Registration Statement, and other documents as we have considered necessary for the purpose of rendering this opinion (collectively, the “Reviewed Documents”). Where certain facts were not independently established and verified by us, we have relied upon certificates or statements issued or made by, among others, appropriate representatives of the Company. In rendering this opinion, we have assumed without independent investigation that (the “Assumptions”):

 

(i)all signatures, seals and chops are genuine, each signature on behalf of a party thereto is that of a person duly authorized by such party to execute the same, the Reviewed Documents submitted to us as originals are authentic, and all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies or facsimile or electronic copies conform to the originals;

 

(ii)each of the parties to the Reviewed Documents, (a) if a legal person or other entity, is duly organized and is validly existing in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and/or incorporation; or (b) if an individual, has full capacity for civil conduct; each of them, has full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its/her/his obligations under such documents to which it is a party in accordance with the laws of its jurisdiction of organization or incorporation or the laws that it/she/he is subject to;

 

(iii)the Reviewed Documents remain in full force and effect on the date of this opinion and have not been revoked, amended or supplemented, and no amendments, revisions, supplements, modifications or other changes have been made, and no revocation or termination has occurred, with respect to any of such Reviewed Documents after they were submitted to us for the purposes of this legal opinion;

 

 

 

 1 

 

 

(i)the laws of jurisdictions other than Hong Kong which may be applicable to the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Reviewed Documents are complied with; and

 

(ii)all Reviewed Documents that have been provided to us and all factual statements made to us by the Company for the purpose of this opinion are true, accurate, correct, complete and not misleading in any respect. There is no information which has been omitted to be disclosed to us which could materially affect this opinion;

 

(iii)where applicable, the agreements in the Reviewed Documents constitute valid and legally binding obligations of each of the parties thereto and are enforceable under all applicable laws;

 

(iv)where applicable, the agreements in the the Reviewed Documents have been entered into for bona fide purposes and there has been no bad faith, fraud, misrepresentation, coercion, duress or undue influence or breach of trust on the part of any of the parties to the relevant agreements and their respective directors, employees, agents and advisers; and

 

(v)to the extent that the Registration Statement purports to describe Roshing International Co., Limited’s business activities in Hong Kong, such descriptions are true, accurate, correct and complete.

 

Opinions

 

Subject to the Assumptions, Qualifications and limitations set forth herein and subject to any matters not disclosed to us, and having regard to such considerations of the laws of Hong Kong in force as at the date of this opinion as we consider relevant, we are of the opinion that:

 

(i)the description of Hong Kong laws and the Hong Kong legal matters relating to the Company’s business activities in Hong Kong with respect to the regulations set forth in the Registration Statement on the cover page and under the captions “Prospectus Summary”, “Risk Factors – Risks Related to Doing Business in Hong Kong”, “Regulations – Regulations Related to our Business Operation in Hong Kong”, and “Corporate History and Structure” in each case insofar as such statements purport to describe or summarize the Hong Kong laws and legal matters relating the Company’s business activities in Hong Kong with respect to the regulations, correctly and fairly summarizes and describes the matters referred to therein as at the date hereof, are true and accurate in all material respects, and fairly present and summarize in all material respects the Hong Kong legal matters stated therein as at the date hereof; and

D. Observations

 

(i)On July 1, 1997, Hong Kong became the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the “HKSAR”) of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). On April 4, 1990, the National People’s Congress (the “NPC”) of the PRC adopted the Basic Law of the HKSAR (the “Basic Law”). Under Article 8 of the Basic Law, the laws of Hong Kong in force at June 30, 1997 (that is, the common law, rules of equity, ordinances, subordinate legislation and customary law) shall be maintained, except for any that contravene the Basic Law and subject to any amendment by the legislature of the HKSAR. Under Article 160 of the Basic Law, the laws of Hong Kong in force at June 30, 1997 shall be adopted as laws of the HKSAR unless they are declared by the Standing Committee of the NPC (the “Standing Committee”) to be in contravention of the Basic Law and, if any laws are later discovered to be in contravention of the Basic Law, they shall be amended or cease to have force in accordance with the procedure prescribed by the Basic Law.

 

(ii)On February 23, 1997, the Standing Committee adopted a decision (the “Decision”) on the treatment of laws previously in force in Hong Kong. Under paragraph 1 of the Decision, the Standing Committee decided (as translated by us) that “the laws previously in force in Hong Kong, which include the common law, rules of equity, ordinances, subsidiary legislation and customary law, except for those which contravene the Basic Law, are to be adopted as the laws of the HKSAR”. Under paragraph 2 of the Decision, the Standing Committee decided that the ordinances and subsidiary legislation set out in Annex 1 to the Decision “which are in contravention of the Basic Law’ are not to be adopted as the laws of the HKSAR. One of the ordinances set out in that Annex is the Application of English Law” Ordinance (Chapter 88 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (the “English Law Ordinance”). The English Law Ordinance applied the common law and rules of equity of England to Hong Kong. We have assumed in giving this opinion that the effect of paragraph 2 of the Decision, insofar as it relates to the English Law Ordinance, is to repeal the English Law Ordinance prospectively and that the common law and rules of equity of England which applied in Hong Kong on June 30, 1997 continue to apply, subject to their subsequent independent development which will rest primarily with the courts of the HKSAR which are empowered by the Basic Law to refer to precedents of other common law jurisdictions when adjudicating cases.

 

This opinion is delivered solely for the purpose of and in connection with the Registration Statement publicly filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on the date of this opinion and shall not be used for any other purpose without our prior written consent.

 

We hereby consent to the use of this opinion in, and the filing hereof as an exhibit to, the Registration Statement, and to the reference to our name in such Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the regulations promulgated thereunder. Except with our prior written consent or consented herein, this opinion is not to be transmitted or disclosed to or used or relied upon by any other person or used or relied upon by the Company for any other purpose and it may not be filed with any governmental agency or authority or quoted in any public document, save that to the extent required by any law or regulation or court order or in connection with any judicial proceeding or in seeking to establish any defence in any legal or regulatory proceeding or investigation relating to the matters set out herein.

NATURE OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

 

On June 13, 2012, Freedom Petroleum Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada. In May 2015, Freedom Petroleum changed its name to Steampunk Wizards, Inc.; and on November 9, 2016, Steampunk Wizards changed its name to Tianci International, Inc. The Company is a holding company. As of July 31, 2024, the Company had one operating subsidiary, Roshing International Co., Limited (“Roshing”). The Company owns 90% of the capital stock of Roshing through RQS United, a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company’s fiscal year end is July 31.

  

On February 13, 2023, the Company incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary, Tianci Group Holding Limited, in the Republic of Seychelles.

 

Reorganization

 

On March 3, 2023 the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with RQS United Group Limited (“RQS United”) and RQS Capital Limited (“RQS Capital”), which was the sole shareholder of RQS United (the “Exchange Agreement”). RQS United owns 90% of the equity in Roshing International Co., Limited (“Roshing”), which is engaged in the business of providing global logistics services including ocean freight forwarding and related logistics solutions, distributing electronic components and providing software services. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, on March 6, 2023 RQS Capital transferred all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of RQS United to the Company, and the Company issued to RQS Capital 1,500,000 shares of our common stock and paid a cash price of $350,000 (the “Share Exchange”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company also issued a total of 700,000 shares of our common stock to nine employees or affiliates of Roshing to induce continued services to Roshing.

 

As a result of the Share Exchange, RQS United became our wholly-owned subsidiary and the former RQS United stockholder became our controlling stockholder. The share exchange transaction was treated as a reverse acquisition, with RQS United as the acquirer and the Company as the acquired party for accounting purposes. Unless the context suggests otherwise, when we refer in this report to business and financial information for periods prior to the consummation of the reverse acquisition, we are referring to the business and financial information of RQS United and its consolidated subsidiary, Roshing.

 

Prior to the Share Exchange, the Company was a shell company as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act. As a result of the transactions under the Exchange Agreement, the Company ceased to be a shell company.

 

RQS United is a holding company incorporated on November 4, 2022 in the Republic of Seychelles. RQS United has no substantive operations other than holding 90% of the outstanding share capital of its subsidiary, Roshing, which was incorporated on June 22, 2011 in Hong Kong, is principally engaged in global logistics services. Less than 4% of its revenue for the nine months ended July 31, 2024 was derived from other business lines: sales of electronic device hardware components, development of logistics software and websites, technical consulting, and software maintenance. Roshing’s business is primarily carried out in Hong Kong.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The interim financial information referred to above has been prepared and presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States applicable to interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. The interim financial information has been prepared on a basis consistent with prior interim periods and years and includes all disclosures that are necessary and required by applicable laws and regulations. These interim financial statements include all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. This report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements for the years ended July 31, 2024 and 2023 and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on October 22, 2024.

 

Results of the three months ended October 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending July 31, 2025 or any other future periods. 

 

Principles of consolidation

 

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

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The estimates and judgments will also affect the reported amounts for certain revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these good faith estimates and judgments.

 

Foreign currency translation and transactions

 

The Company uses the U.S. dollar as its reporting currency and functional currency. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

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

 

Accounts receivable, net

 

Accounts receivable include trade accounts due from customers which are generally collected within six months. In establishing the allowance for doubtful accounts, management considers historical collection experience, aging of the receivables, the economic environment, industry trend analysis, and the credit history and financial condition of the customer. Management reviews its receivables on a regular basis to determine if the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate, and adjusts the allowance when necessary. Delinquent account balances are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable. As of October 31, 2024 and July 31, 2024, no allowance for doubtful accounts was deemed necessary.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The accounting standard regarding fair value of financial instruments and related fair value measurements defines financial instruments and requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company.

  

The accounting standard defines fair value, establishes as a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follow:

 

· Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) 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, quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in inactive markets and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.
   
· Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

 

Financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities (such as cash, accounts receivable, due from related party, accounts payable, and due to related parties) are reported in the consolidated balance sheets at cost, which approximates fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization.

 

Revenue recognition

 

The Company follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606. This standard requires the use of a five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The five-step model requires that the Company (i) identifies the contract with the customer, (ii) identifies the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determines the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocates the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognizes revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligations.

 

The Company records revenue net of sales taxes which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities and are excluded from the transaction price.

 

The Company’s revenue recognition policies are as follows:

 

a. Global Logistics Services

 

The Company provides global logistics services, including ocean freight forwarding and related logistics solutions. As a non-asset-based carrier, the Company does not own transportation assets.

 

The Company derives its revenues by entering into agreements that are generally comprised of a single performance obligation, which is that freight is shipped for and received by the customer via either container ships or general cargo vessels. The most significant drivers of changes in gross revenues and related transportation expenses are volume and weight.

 

In general, each shipment transaction or service order constitutes a separate contract with the customer. A performance obligation is created once a customer agreement with an agreed upon transaction price exists. The transaction price, which is based on volume, weight, and shipping time, is fixed and not contingent upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any other event.

 

The Company typically satisfies its performance obligations at a point in time when freight is shipped to destination port and accepted by its customers. The Company does not have significant variable consideration in its contracts. Taxes assessed concurrently with a specific revenue-producing transaction that are collected by the Company from a customer are excluded from revenues.

 

The Company evaluates whether amounts billed to customers should be reported as gross or net revenue. Revenue is recorded on a gross basis when the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the services, when it assumes risk of loss, when it has discretion in setting the prices for the services to the customers, and when the Company has the ability to direct the use of the services provided by the third party. In most cases we act as an indirect carrier. When acting as an indirect carrier, we issue a Fixture Note to customers as the contract of carriage. In turn, when the freight is physically tendered to a direct carrier, we receive a Master Ocean Bill of Lading.

 

The Company’s evaluation determined that it is in control of establishing the transaction price, managing all aspects of the shipment process and assumes the risk of loss for delivery, collection, and returns. Based on its evaluation of the control of services and risk involved, the Company determined that it acts as a principal rather than an agent in global logistics service arrangements and such revenues are reported on a gross basis.

 

b. Electronic Device Hardware Components Products Sales

 

The Company is a distributor of electronic device hardware components and generates revenue through resale of these components. The Company’s products include high performance computer chips, Wi-Fi modules, Bluetooth modules, 4G network modules, LED screens, and touch screens. In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue Recognition: Principal Agent Consideration, an entity is a principal if it controls the specified good or service before that good or service is transferred to a customer. Otherwise, the entity is an agent in the transaction. The Company evaluates three indicators of control in accordance with ASC 606: 1) For hardware sales, the Company is the most visible entity to customers and assumes fulfillment risk and risks related to the acceptability of products, including addressing customer complaints directly and handling of product returns or refunds directly; 2) The Company is exposed to inventory risk before transfer of control to customers; and 3) The Company determines the resale price of hardware products. After evaluating the above circumstances, the Company considers itself the principal of these arrangements and records hardware sales revenue on a gross basis.

 

Hardware sales contracts are on a fixed price basis with no separate sales rebate, discount, or other incentive. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when the Company has delivered products that have been accepted by its customer with no future obligations. The Company generally permits returns of products due to product failure; however, returns are historically insignificant.

 

c. Software and Website Development Services

 

The Company generates revenue by developing customized freight shipping and related logistic software and websites, which are generally on a fixed-priced basis. The software helps wholesalers, ecommerce retailers, and freight shipping providers to manage complex workflows and improve work efficiency. The Company generally has no enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date and is only entitled to payment after software is fully developed, delivered, tested, and accepted by the customer. As a result, revenues from software development contracts are recognized at a point in time when services are fully rendered, and written acceptances have been received from customers.

  

d. Technical Consulting and Training Services

 

The Company provides technical consulting and training services to help customers, generally its existing customers, to better understand and properly use its customized software and related hardware. Services are generally carried out on a per-time fixed rate basis. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when service is rendered and the customer confirms the completion of consulting or training.

 

e. Software Maintenance and Business Promotion Services

 

The Company provides software maintenance services to keep customers’ software up to date and assists customers in promoting business with ongoing marketing support. The Company charges a flat rate for a fixed duration on a subscription basis, generally 12 months. Revenue is recognized ratably each month over the contract period.

 

f. Business Consulting Services

 

The Company provides business consulting services to help customers apply for immigration and non-immigration visas. The Company is responsible for performing background checks, case analysis, and preparing related application paper works. The Company charges a flat fee for the visa application services. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when an application is submitted with proper authorities.

 

Cost of revenues

 

For global logistics services, cost of revenue consists primarily of cargo space charged by direct ocean carriers, freight forwarders and ancillary logistics services fees.

 

For hardware products sales, the cost of revenue consists primarily of the costs of hardware products sold.

 

For software, consulting, services-based revenue, the cost of revenue consists primarily of costs paid to outsourced service providers and compensation expenses paid the Company’s service vendor.

 

Advertising costs

 

Advertising costs amounted to $0 for the three months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in selling and marketing expenses.

 

Operating leases

 

Effective August 1, 2022, the Company adopted FASB ASU 2016-02, “Leases” (Topic 842), and elected the practical expedients that does not require the Company to reassess: (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are, or contain, leases, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. For lease terms of twelve months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election not to recognize lease assets and liabilities. The Company also adopted the practical expedient that allows lessees to treat the lease and non-lease components of a lease as a single lease component. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02 effective August 1, 2022, the Company recognized a $8,704 right of use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liabilities in January 2023 based on the present value of the future minimum rental payments of leases, using an incremental borrowing rate of 5%.

 

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

 

Lease payments for an operating lease transitioning to ASC 842 using the effective date are based on future payments at the transition date and on the present value of lease payments over the remaining lease term. Since the implicit rate for the Company’s leases is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis, an amount equal to the lease payments, in a similar economic environment and over a similar term.

 

Lease terms used to calculate the present value of lease payments generally do not include any options to extend, renew, or terminate the lease, as the Company does not have reasonable certainty at lease inception that these options will be exercised. The Company generally considers the economic life of its operating lease ROU assets to be comparable to the useful life of similar owned assets. The Company has elected the short-term lease exception; therefore, operating lease ROU assets and liabilities do not include leases with a lease term of twelve months or less. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

The Company reviews the impairment of its ROU 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 lease for the Company’s Hong Kong office facility was early terminated in September 2023, which resulted in a derecognition of $6,080 right of use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liabilities in August 2023.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for current income taxes in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. The charge for taxation is based on the results for the fiscal year as adjusted for items which are non-taxable or non-deductible. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

 

Deferred taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable income (loss). In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Deferred tax is calculated using tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the statements of operations, except when it is related to items credited or charged directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is dealt with in equity. Net deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax asset will not be realized.

 

An uncertain tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax for uncertain tax positions are classified as income tax expenses in the period incurred.

 

During the year ended July 31, 2024, the Company incurred an IRS penalty of $47,030 for failure to update certain foreign-owned information schedules in a timely manner. The penalty is included in other expense in the statements of operations for the year ended July 31, 2024. During the three months ended October 31, 2024, the Company received a refund $24,953 from the IRS for the penalty previously charged. The refund is included in other income in the statements of operations for the three months ended October 31, 2024.

 

The Hong Kong tax returns filed for 2019 and subsequent years are subject to examination by the applicable tax authorities.

 

The US tax returns filed for 2021 and subsequent years are subject to examination by the applicable tax authorities.

 

Earnings (loss) per share

 

The Company computes earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. ASC 260 requires companies to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS presents the diluted effect on a per share basis of the potential shares of common stock (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 shares of common stock 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. As of October 31, 2024 and July 31, 2024, there were 8,000,000 dilutive shares outstanding related to the convertible Series B Preferred Stock. Each share of Series B and Series A Preferred Stock is and was convertible by the holder of the share into 100 shares of common stock, subject to equitable adjustment of the conversion rate.

 

Noncontrolling Interests

 

The Company’s noncontrolling interest represents the minority shareholder’s 10% ownership interest in Roshing. The noncontrolling interest is presented in the consolidated balance sheets separately from stockholders’ equity attributable to Tianci. Noncontrolling interest in the results of Roshing are presented on the consolidated statements of operations as allocations of the total income or loss of Roshing between the noncontrolling interest holder and the shareholders of RQS United.

 

Related parties

 

Parties, which can be a corporation, other business entity, or an individual, are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.

 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

 

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued.

 

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, which is an update to ASU Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduced the expected credit losses methodology for the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost basis, replacing the previous incurred loss methodology. The amendments in Update 2016-13 added Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses, and made several consequential amendments to the Codification. Update 2016-13 also modified the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities, which must be individually assessed for credit losses when fair value is less than the amortized cost basis, in accordance with Subtopic 326-30, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses — Available-for-Sale Debt Securities. The amendments in this Update provide an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option for certain financial assets previously measured at amortized cost basis. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, which updates the effective date of ASU No. 2016-13 for private companies, not-for-profit organizations and certain smaller reporting companies. The new effective date for these preparers is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. ASU 2019-05 is effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning August 1, 2023 as the Company is qualified as a smaller reporting company. The adoption of this standard on August 1, 2023 has not had and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s future consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The amendments in this Update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption of this standard on August 1, 2022 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Except as mentioned above, the Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated Financial Statements.

Income Taxes

 

Seychelles

 

RQS United is incorporated in Seychelles and is not subject to tax on income generated outside of Seychelles under the current law. In addition, upon payment of dividends, no withholding tax is imposed under current law.

 

Hong Kong

 

Roshing is incorporated in Hong Kong and is subject to Hong Kong Profits Tax on the taxable income as reported in its statutory financial statements adjusted in accordance with relevant Hong Kong tax laws. Incorporated companies pay 8.25% tax on the first $2 million of profits and 16.5% on the remainder. Hong Kong income tax expenses for the three months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023 amounted to $2,189 and $19,113, respectively.

 

For the three months ended October 31, 2024, the loss before provision for income taxes of $89,759, consisted of United States source loss of $(103,024) and Hong Kong source income of $11,076. For the three months ended October 31, 2023, the income before provision for income taxes of $13,001 consisted of United States source loss of $(102,833) and Hong Kong source income of $115,834.

For United States income tax purposes, Tianci has a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $1,519,000 at October 31, 2024. Management has not determined that it is more likely than not that this carryforward will be realized and thus the Company maintained a 100% valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to the United States net operating loss carryforward. Current United States income tax law limits the amount of loss available to offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs.

 

Uncertain tax positions

 

The Company evaluates each uncertain tax position (including the potential application of interest and penalties) based on the technical merits, and measures the unrecognized benefits associated with the tax positions. As of October 31, 2024 and July 31, 2024, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

 

As of July 31, 2024, tax years 2021 and forward generally remain open for examination for United States Federal and State tax purposes and tax years 2019 and forward generally remain open for examination for Hong Kong tax purposes.

CONCENTRATION OF RISK

NOTE 7 — CONCENTRATION OF RISK

 

Credit risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash held in banks. The cash balance in each financial institution in the United States is insured by the FDIC up to $250,000. As of October 31, 2024, no United States account balance exceeded $250,000. The Hong Kong Deposit Protection Board pays compensation up to a limit of HKD 500,000 (approximately US$64,000) if the bank with which an individual/company holds its eligible deposit fails. As of October 31, 2024, a cash balance of $ 228,644 was maintained at a financial institution in Hong Kong of which approximately $158,000 was subject to credit risk. Management believes that the financial institution is of high credit quality and continually monitors its credit worthiness.

  

Customer concentration risk

 

For the three months ended October 31, 2024, two customers accounted for 56.5%, and 19.7% of the Company’s total revenues.

 

For the three months ended October 31, 2023, two customers accounted for 61.2% and 13.1% of the Company’s total revenues.

 

As of October 31, 2024 and July 31, 2024, no customer accounted for over 10% of the Company’s total accounts receivable.

 

Vendor concentration risk

 

For the year ended July 31, 2024, three vendors accounted for 59.0%, 20.6% and 1.3% of the Company’s total purchases. For the three months ended October 31, 2023, two vendors accounted for 65.9% and 13.7% of the Company’s total purchases.

Lease commitments

 

On January 1, 2021, Roshing entered into an operating lease agreement for office space in Hong Kong with a third party. The agreement had a term of two years and provided for monthly rent of HKD 2,800 (approximately $360). On January 13, 2023, the Company entered a new operating lease agreement for office space in Hong Kong with a third party for two years with monthly rent of HKD 3,000 (approximately $382). Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02 effective August 1, 2022, the Company recognized a $8,704 right of use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liabilities in January 2023 based on the present value of the future minimum rental payments of leases, using an incremental borrowing rate of 5%. The Company’s lease agreement does not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The lease does not contain an option to extend at the time of expiration. The lease was early terminated in September 2023 which resulted in a derecognition of $6,080 right of use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liabilities in August 2023.

 

In September 2023, the Company entered into a one-year office rental service agreement with a monthly lease payment of approximately $828 (HKD 6,500). In September 2024, the Company further renewed the lease for one year with a monthly lease payment of approximately $847 (HKD 6,650).

 

Rent expenses were $2,522 and $3,184 for the three months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

Contingencies

 

From time to time, the Company may be a party to legal proceedings, as well as certain asserted and un-asserted claims. The Company was not involved in any material legal proceedings nor asserted claims as of October 31, 2024.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

 

The interim financial information referred to above has been prepared and presented in U.S. dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States applicable to interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. The interim financial information has been prepared on a basis consistent with prior interim periods and years and includes all disclosures that are necessary and required by applicable laws and regulations. These interim financial statements include all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. This report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements for the years ended July 31, 2024 and 2023 and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on October 22, 2024.

 

Results of the three months ended October 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending July 31, 2025 or any other future periods. 

 

Principles of consolidation

Principles of consolidation

 

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

 

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The estimates and judgments will also affect the reported amounts for certain revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these good faith estimates and judgments.

 

Foreign currency translation and transactions

Foreign currency translation and transactions

 

The Company uses the U.S. dollar as its reporting currency and functional currency. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

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

 

Accounts receivable, net

Accounts receivable, net

 

Accounts receivable include trade accounts due from customers which are generally collected within six months. In establishing the allowance for doubtful accounts, management considers historical collection experience, aging of the receivables, the economic environment, industry trend analysis, and the credit history and financial condition of the customer. Management reviews its receivables on a regular basis to determine if the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate, and adjusts the allowance when necessary. Delinquent account balances are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable. As of October 31, 2024 and July 31, 2024, no allowance for doubtful accounts was deemed necessary.

 

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

 

The accounting standard regarding fair value of financial instruments and related fair value measurements defines financial instruments and requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company.

  

The accounting standard defines fair value, establishes as a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follow:

 

· Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) 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, quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in inactive markets and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.
   
· Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

 

Financial instruments included in current assets and current liabilities (such as cash, accounts receivable, due from related party, accounts payable, and due to related parties) are reported in the consolidated balance sheets at cost, which approximates fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization.

 

Revenue recognition

Revenue recognition

 

The Company follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606. This standard requires the use of a five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The five-step model requires that the Company (i) identifies the contract with the customer, (ii) identifies the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determines the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocates the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognizes revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligations.

 

The Company records revenue net of sales taxes which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities and are excluded from the transaction price.

 

The Company’s revenue recognition policies are as follows:

 

a. Global Logistics Services

 

The Company provides global logistics services, including ocean freight forwarding and related logistics solutions. As a non-asset-based carrier, the Company does not own transportation assets.

 

The Company derives its revenues by entering into agreements that are generally comprised of a single performance obligation, which is that freight is shipped for and received by the customer via either container ships or general cargo vessels. The most significant drivers of changes in gross revenues and related transportation expenses are volume and weight.

 

In general, each shipment transaction or service order constitutes a separate contract with the customer. A performance obligation is created once a customer agreement with an agreed upon transaction price exists. The transaction price, which is based on volume, weight, and shipping time, is fixed and not contingent upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any other event.

 

The Company typically satisfies its performance obligations at a point in time when freight is shipped to destination port and accepted by its customers. The Company does not have significant variable consideration in its contracts. Taxes assessed concurrently with a specific revenue-producing transaction that are collected by the Company from a customer are excluded from revenues.

 

The Company evaluates whether amounts billed to customers should be reported as gross or net revenue. Revenue is recorded on a gross basis when the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the services, when it assumes risk of loss, when it has discretion in setting the prices for the services to the customers, and when the Company has the ability to direct the use of the services provided by the third party. In most cases we act as an indirect carrier. When acting as an indirect carrier, we issue a Fixture Note to customers as the contract of carriage. In turn, when the freight is physically tendered to a direct carrier, we receive a Master Ocean Bill of Lading.

 

The Company’s evaluation determined that it is in control of establishing the transaction price, managing all aspects of the shipment process and assumes the risk of loss for delivery, collection, and returns. Based on its evaluation of the control of services and risk involved, the Company determined that it acts as a principal rather than an agent in global logistics service arrangements and such revenues are reported on a gross basis.

 

b. Electronic Device Hardware Components Products Sales

 

The Company is a distributor of electronic device hardware components and generates revenue through resale of these components. The Company’s products include high performance computer chips, Wi-Fi modules, Bluetooth modules, 4G network modules, LED screens, and touch screens. In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue Recognition: Principal Agent Consideration, an entity is a principal if it controls the specified good or service before that good or service is transferred to a customer. Otherwise, the entity is an agent in the transaction. The Company evaluates three indicators of control in accordance with ASC 606: 1) For hardware sales, the Company is the most visible entity to customers and assumes fulfillment risk and risks related to the acceptability of products, including addressing customer complaints directly and handling of product returns or refunds directly; 2) The Company is exposed to inventory risk before transfer of control to customers; and 3) The Company determines the resale price of hardware products. After evaluating the above circumstances, the Company considers itself the principal of these arrangements and records hardware sales revenue on a gross basis.

 

Hardware sales contracts are on a fixed price basis with no separate sales rebate, discount, or other incentive. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when the Company has delivered products that have been accepted by its customer with no future obligations. The Company generally permits returns of products due to product failure; however, returns are historically insignificant.

 

c. Software and Website Development Services

 

The Company generates revenue by developing customized freight shipping and related logistic software and websites, which are generally on a fixed-priced basis. The software helps wholesalers, ecommerce retailers, and freight shipping providers to manage complex workflows and improve work efficiency. The Company generally has no enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date and is only entitled to payment after software is fully developed, delivered, tested, and accepted by the customer. As a result, revenues from software development contracts are recognized at a point in time when services are fully rendered, and written acceptances have been received from customers.

  

d. Technical Consulting and Training Services

 

The Company provides technical consulting and training services to help customers, generally its existing customers, to better understand and properly use its customized software and related hardware. Services are generally carried out on a per-time fixed rate basis. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when service is rendered and the customer confirms the completion of consulting or training.

 

e. Software Maintenance and Business Promotion Services

 

The Company provides software maintenance services to keep customers’ software up to date and assists customers in promoting business with ongoing marketing support. The Company charges a flat rate for a fixed duration on a subscription basis, generally 12 months. Revenue is recognized ratably each month over the contract period.

 

f. Business Consulting Services

 

The Company provides business consulting services to help customers apply for immigration and non-immigration visas. The Company is responsible for performing background checks, case analysis, and preparing related application paper works. The Company charges a flat fee for the visa application services. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when an application is submitted with proper authorities.

 

Cost of revenues

Cost of revenues

 

For global logistics services, cost of revenue consists primarily of cargo space charged by direct ocean carriers, freight forwarders and ancillary logistics services fees.

 

For hardware products sales, the cost of revenue consists primarily of the costs of hardware products sold.

 

For software, consulting, services-based revenue, the cost of revenue consists primarily of costs paid to outsourced service providers and compensation expenses paid the Company’s service vendor.

 

Advertising costs

Advertising costs

 

Advertising costs amounted to $0 for the three months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in selling and marketing expenses.

 

Operating leases

Operating leases

 

Effective August 1, 2022, the Company adopted FASB ASU 2016-02, “Leases” (Topic 842), and elected the practical expedients that does not require the Company to reassess: (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are, or contain, leases, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. For lease terms of twelve months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election not to recognize lease assets and liabilities. The Company also adopted the practical expedient that allows lessees to treat the lease and non-lease components of a lease as a single lease component. Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02 effective August 1, 2022, the Company recognized a $8,704 right of use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liabilities in January 2023 based on the present value of the future minimum rental payments of leases, using an incremental borrowing rate of 5%.

 

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

 

Lease payments for an operating lease transitioning to ASC 842 using the effective date are based on future payments at the transition date and on the present value of lease payments over the remaining lease term. Since the implicit rate for the Company’s leases is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow, on a collateralized basis, an amount equal to the lease payments, in a similar economic environment and over a similar term.

 

Lease terms used to calculate the present value of lease payments generally do not include any options to extend, renew, or terminate the lease, as the Company does not have reasonable certainty at lease inception that these options will be exercised. The Company generally considers the economic life of its operating lease ROU assets to be comparable to the useful life of similar owned assets. The Company has elected the short-term lease exception; therefore, operating lease ROU assets and liabilities do not include leases with a lease term of twelve months or less. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

The Company reviews the impairment of its ROU 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 lease for the Company’s Hong Kong office facility was early terminated in September 2023, which resulted in a derecognition of $6,080 right of use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liabilities in August 2023.

 

Income taxes

Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for current income taxes in accordance with the laws of the relevant tax authorities. The charge for taxation is based on the results for the fiscal year as adjusted for items which are non-taxable or non-deductible. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

 

Deferred taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable income (loss). In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Deferred tax is calculated using tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the statements of operations, except when it is related to items credited or charged directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is dealt with in equity. Net deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax asset will not be realized.

 

An uncertain tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax for uncertain tax positions are classified as income tax expenses in the period incurred.

 

During the year ended July 31, 2024, the Company incurred an IRS penalty of $47,030 for failure to update certain foreign-owned information schedules in a timely manner. The penalty is included in other expense in the statements of operations for the year ended July 31, 2024. During the three months ended October 31, 2024, the Company received a refund $24,953 from the IRS for the penalty previously charged. The refund is included in other income in the statements of operations for the three months ended October 31, 2024.

 

The Hong Kong tax returns filed for 2019 and subsequent years are subject to examination by the applicable tax authorities.

 

The US tax returns filed for 2021 and subsequent years are subject to examination by the applicable tax authorities.

 

Earnings (loss) per share

Earnings (loss) per share

 

The Company computes earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. ASC 260 requires companies to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS presents the diluted effect on a per share basis of the potential shares of common stock (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 shares of common stock 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. As of October 31, 2024 and July 31, 2024, there were 8,000,000 dilutive shares outstanding related to the convertible Series B Preferred Stock. Each share of Series B and Series A Preferred Stock is and was convertible by the holder of the share into 100 shares of common stock, subject to equitable adjustment of the conversion rate.

 

Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling Interests

 

The Company’s noncontrolling interest represents the minority shareholder’s 10% ownership interest in Roshing. The noncontrolling interest is presented in the consolidated balance sheets separately from stockholders’ equity attributable to Tianci. Noncontrolling interest in the results of Roshing are presented on the consolidated statements of operations as allocations of the total income or loss of Roshing between the noncontrolling interest holder and the shareholders of RQS United.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

 

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued.

 

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, which is an update to ASU Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduced the expected credit losses methodology for the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost basis, replacing the previous incurred loss methodology. The amendments in Update 2016-13 added Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses, and made several consequential amendments to the Codification. Update 2016-13 also modified the accounting for available-for-sale debt securities, which must be individually assessed for credit losses when fair value is less than the amortized cost basis, in accordance with Subtopic 326-30, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses — Available-for-Sale Debt Securities. The amendments in this Update provide an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option for certain financial assets previously measured at amortized cost basis. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, which updates the effective date of ASU No. 2016-13 for private companies, not-for-profit organizations and certain smaller reporting companies. The new effective date for these preparers is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. ASU 2019-05 is effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning August 1, 2023 as the Company is qualified as a smaller reporting company. The adoption of this standard on August 1, 2023 has not had and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s future consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The amendments in this Update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption of this standard on August 1, 2022 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Except as mentioned above, the Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated Financial Statements.
