PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS DATED September 12, 2024
4,166,666 Units and additional 625,000
Units (for the Over-Allotment Option) (each Unit consisting of (i) one share of Class A Ordinary Share, par value $0.0001 per share (or
one pre-funded warrant to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share), (ii) one Series A warrant to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share (subject
to adjustment, as described below), and (iii) one Series B warrant to purchase such number of Class A Ordinary Share as described below )
Maximum 41,666,667 Class A Ordinary Shares
and additional 6,250,000 Class A Ordinary Shares (for the Over-Allotment Option) (Including the Class A Ordinary Shares Underlying the
Warrants)
![](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1954594/000121390024077909/image_001.jpg)
Haoxi Health Technology Limited
We are offering in a firm commitment offering
4,166,666 units (each, a “Unit,” and, collectively, the “Units”), with each Unit consisting of (i) one share
of Class A Ordinary Share, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Share”) (or one pre-funded warrant to purchase
one Class A Ordinary Share (the “Pre-Funded Warrant”)), (ii) one Series A warrant to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share
(the “Series A Warrant”), and (iii) one Series B warrant to purchase such number of Class A Ordinary Share as described below,
and in accordance with the terms therein (the “Series B Warrant” and together with the Pre-Funded Warrant and the Series
A Warrant, the “Warrants”), at an estimate public offering price of $[ ] per Unit, based on the last reported sale price of
our Class A Ordinary Shares on The Nasdaq Capital Market immediately prior to effectiveness of this Registration Statement.
The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable on
issuance at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share of Class A Ordinary Shares and will not expire until exercised in full. The 5-year
term Series A Warrants are exercisable upon issuance and have an initial exercise price of $[ ] per Class A Ordinary Share. On the sixteenth
(16th) Trading Day following the Closing of this offering (the “Series B Exercise Date”), the exercise price of
the Series A Warrant will be adjusted to $[ ], i.e., one fifth of the per Unit offering price, and the maximum number of shares issuable
upon exercise of the Series A Warrant will be adjusted to 20,833,333 shares, i.e., five times of the initial number of shares issuable.
The 5-year Series B Warrants will be exercisable at any time or times on or after the Series B Exercise Date at an exercise price of
$0.0001 per Class A Ordinary Share. The maximum number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series B Warrants will be 16,666,667 shares,
obtained by subtracting (I) the sum of (x) the aggregate number of shares sold on the Closing Date and (y) the number of Class A Ordinary
Shares issuable upon exercise in full of any Pre-funded Warrants, from (II) the quotient determined by dividing (x) the sum of (i) the
aggregate purchase price paid and (ii) the aggregate of all exercise prices paid or payable upon exercise in full of the Pre-Funded Warrants,
by (y) $[ ], which equals to 20% of the Nasdaq Minimum Price under the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) immediately prior to effectiveness
of this Registration Statement.
As described above, based on an estimate offering
price of $[ ] per Unit, the initial and adjusted exercise prices of the Series A Warrants are $[ ]
and $[ ], respectively, and the maximum aggregate maximum number of Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of
the Series A Warrant is 20,833,333 shares; the exercise prices of the Series B Warrants is $0.0001, and the maximum aggregate maximum
number of Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Series B Warrant is 16,666,667 shares. For the avoidance of doubts, the adjusted exercise
price of Series A Warrants, the number of shares underlying the Series A Warrants and the Series B Warrants bears no relevance to any
market price of the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares after the effectiveness of this Registration Statement. See “Prospectus
Summary—The Offering,” “Description of Share Capital—Warrants,” and “Underwriting—Warrants”
for the calculation formulas of the maximum number of Class A Ordinary Share underlying the Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants.
Our
Class A Ordinary Shares are listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “HAO.”
The number of Units offered in this
prospectus and all other applicable information has been determined based on an estimate public offering price of $[ ]
per Unit. The actual public offering price per Unit and the number of Units sold in the offering will be determined between us, the
underwriters and the investors in the offering, and may be at a discount to the then current market price of our Class A Ordinary
Shares immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. Therefore, the estimate public offering price used throughout this prospectus may not be indicative of the final offering
price. The estimate public offering price is used so that we can provide certain disclosures, which require a calculation based on
the public offering price.
We have granted EF Hutton LLC, the representative
of several underwriters named below in “Underwriting” (the “Representative”), an option for a period of 45 days
after the closing of this offering to purchase up to 15% of the total number of the Units to be offered by us pursuant to this offering
(excluding the Units subject to this option), solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments, at the public offering price less the
underwriting discounts.
There is no established trading market for the
Warrants, and we do not expect an active trading market to develop. We do not intend to list the Warrants on any securities exchange
or other trading market. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of Warrants will be limited. Our authorized share capital is
$20,000 divided into 200,000,000 shares of a par value of $0.0001 each, made up of 150,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares and 50,000,000
Class B Ordinary Shares, and we have 14,970,000 Class A Ordinary Shares and 17,270,000 Class B Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding,
respectively as of the date this prospectus. Holders of Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares have the same rights except
for voting and conversion rights. In respect of matters requiring a vote of all shareholders, each holder of Class A Ordinary Shares
will be entitled to one vote per one Class A Ordinary Share and each holder of Class B Ordinary Shares will be entitled to 10 votes per
one Class B Ordinary Share. The Class A Ordinary Shares are not convertible into shares of any other class. The Class B Ordinary Shares
are convertible into Class A Ordinary Shares at any time after issuance at the option of the holder on a one-to-one basis.
Unless otherwise stated, as used in this prospectus,
the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “Haoxi Cayman,” “our Company,” and the “Company”
refer to Haoxi Health Technology Limited, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands; “Haoxi
HK” refers to Haoxi Information Limited, a Hong Kong corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Haoxi Cayman; “WFOE”
refers to Beijing Haoxi Health Technology Co., Limited, a limited liability company organized under the laws and regulations of the People’s
Republic of China (the “PRC”), which company is wholly owned by Haoxi HK; and “Haoxi Beijing” or “the operating
entity” refers to Beijing Haoxi Digital Technology Co., Ltd., a limited liability company organized under PRC laws and regulations,
which company is wholly owned by WFOE. Haoxi Beijing is formerly known as Beijing Haoxi Culture Media Co., Ltd. before September 4, 2020.
See “Prospectus Summary—Corporate Structure.”
Our Class A Ordinary Shares began trading on
the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “HAO” on January 26, 2024. On January 30, 2024, the Company
closed its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 2,400,000 Class A ordinary shares at a price of $4.00 per share. On March
8, 2024, the underwriter for the IPO exercised its over-allotment option in full to purchase 360,000 Class A Ordinary Shares at a price
of $4.00. The total gross proceeds received from the IPO, including proceeds from the exercise of the over-allotment option, is $11,040,000.
Investing in our Class A Ordinary Shares involves
a high degree of risk, including the risk of losing your entire investment. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 24 to read
about factors you should consider before buying our Class A Ordinary Shares.
We are a holding company incorporated in the
Cayman Islands with no material operations of our own and not a Chinese operating company. Our operations are conducted in China through
our wholly owned indirect PRC subsidiary, Haoxi Beijing. The Units being offered hereunder are those of the offshore holding company
in the Cayman Islands, instead of securities of the operating entity in China. Therefore, you will not directly hold any equity interests
in the operating entity. We are subject to certain legal and operational risks associated with business operations of Haoxi Beijing in
China and the Chinese regulatory authorities could disallow our corporate structure, which could cause the value of our securities to
significantly decline or become worthless. For more details, see “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—Substantial
uncertainties exist with respect to the interpretation and implementation of the PRC Foreign Investment Law and its Implementation Rules
and how they may impact the viability of our current corporate structure, corporate governance and business operations;” “Risk
Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—The PRC government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which
we conduct our business activities. The PRC government may also intervene or influence our operations and this offering at any time,
which could result in a material change in our operations and our Class A Ordinary Shares could decline in value or become worthless;”
“Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—The CSRC has promulgated Overseas Listing Trial Measures on
February 17, 2023. Our offering will be determined to be an indirect overseas offering and is, therefore, subject to the CSRC filing
procedures, which could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer our Class A Ordinary Shares
to investors and could cause the value of our Class A Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or become worthless;” and “Risk
Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—Any requirement to obtain prior approval under the M&A Rules and/or
any other regulations promulgated by relevant PRC regulatory agencies in the future could limit or delay this offering and failure to
obtain any such approvals, if required, could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and reputation, as well
as the trading price of our Class A Ordinary Shares, and could also create uncertainties for this offering and affect our ability to
offer or continue to offer securities to investors outside China.” Applicable PRC laws and regulations governing such current business
operations are sometimes vague and uncertain, and as a result, these risks may result in material changes in the operations of Haoxi
Beijing, significant depreciation or a complete loss of the value of our Class A Ordinary Shares, or a complete hindrance of our ability
to offer, or continue to offer, our securities to investors.
On March 15, 2019, the PRC National People’s
Congress approved the PRC Foreign Investment Law, which came into effect on January 1, 2020 and replaced the trio of existing laws regulating
foreign investment in China, namely, the Sino-foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprise Law, the Sino-foreign Cooperative Joint Venture
Enterprise Law, and the Wholly Foreign-invested Enterprise Law, together with their implementation rules and ancillary regulations. On
December 26, 2019, the PRC State Council approved the Implementation Rules of Foreign Investment Law, which came into effect on January
1, 2020. Since the PRC Foreign Investment Law is relatively new, substantial uncertainties exist with respect to its interpretation and
implementation. Under the PRC Foreign Investment Law, “foreign investment” refers to the investment activities directly or
indirectly conducted by foreign individuals, enterprises or other entities in China. The PRC Foreign Investment Law sets out the basic
regulatory framework for foreign investments and proposes to implement a management system of pre-establishment national treatment with
a “negative list” for foreign investments, pursuant to which (i) a foreign invested enterprise, or FIE, under PRC law shall
not invest in any sector forbidden by the negative list for access of foreign investment, (ii) for any sector restricted by the negative
list, an FIE shall conform to the investment conditions provided in the negative list, and (iii) sectors not included in the negative
list shall be managed under the principle that domestic investment and foreign investment shall be treated equally. The PRC Foreign Investment
Law also sets forth necessary mechanisms to facilitate, protect and manage foreign investments and proposes to establish a foreign investment
information report system in which FIE shall submit the investment information to competent departments of commerce through the enterprise
registration system and the enterprise credit information publicity system. Haoxi Beijing is an online marketing solution provider in
China with an advertiser client base mainly in the healthcare industry, which is not a prohibited or restricted industry in the negative
list that is currently effective as of the date of this prospectus. It is uncertain whether the online marketing industry, in which Haoxi
Beijing operates, will be subject to the foreign investment restrictions or prohibitions set forth in any “negative list”
to be issued in the future. There are uncertainties as to how the PRC Foreign Investment Law would be further interpreted and implemented.
We cannot assure you that the interpretation and implementation of the PRC Foreign Investment Law made by the relevant governmental authorities
in the future will not materially impact our corporate governance and business operations in any aspect. See “Risk Factors—Risks
Related to Doing Business in China—Substantial uncertainties exist with respect to the interpretation and implementation of the
PRC Foreign Investment Law and its Implementation Rules and how they may impact the viability of our current corporate structure, corporate
governance and business operations.”
Recently, the PRC government adopted a series
of regulatory actions and issued statements to regulate business operations in China with little advance notice, including cracking down
on illegal activities in the securities market, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding the
efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. On December 28, 2021, 13 governmental departments of the PRC, including the Cyberspace Administration
of China (the “CAC”), issued the Cybersecurity Review Measures, which became effective on February 15, 2022. As of the date
of this prospectus, neither we nor our subsidiaries have been involved in any investigations on cybersecurity review initiated by any
PRC regulatory authority, nor has any of them received any inquiry, notice, or sanction related to cybersecurity review under the Cybersecurity
Review Measures. On November 14, 2021, the CAC published the draft Regulations on the Network Data Security Administration (Draft for
Comments) (the “Security Administration Draft”), which provides that data processing operators engaging in data processing
activities that affect or may affect national security must be subject to network data security review by the relevant Cyberspace Administration
of the PRC. According to the Security Administration Draft, data processing operators who possess personal data of at least one million
users or collect data that affects or may affect national security must be subject to network data security review by the relevant Cyberspace
Administration of the PRC. The deadline for public comments on the Security Administration Draft was December 13, 2021. The Security
Administration Draft has not been fully implemented as of the date of this prospectus. As confirmed by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law
Firm, we are not subject to cybersecurity review by the CAC under the Cybersecurity Review Measures, nor are we subject to network data
security review if the Security Administration Draft are enacted as proposed, since Haoxi Beijing’s business does not involve processing
users’ personal information and it is not deemed as a critical information infrastructure operator (“CIIO”), nor is
it an online platform operator with personal information of more than one million users. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related
to Doing Business in China—Any requirement to obtain prior approval under the M&A Rules and/or any other regulations promulgated
by relevant PRC regulatory agencies in the future could limit or delay this offering and failure to obtain any such approvals, if required,
could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and reputation, as well as the trading price of our Class A Ordinary
Shares, and could also create uncertainties for this offering and affect our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors
outside China.”
On February 17, 2023, the China Securities Regulatory
Commission (the “CSRC”), released the Trial Administrative Measures of the Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic
Companies and five ancillary interpretive guidelines, or collectively, the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, which came into effect on
March 31, 2023. According to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, Chinese domestic companies that seek to offer and list securities in
overseas markets, either in direct or indirect means, are required to fulfill the filing procedures with the CSRC and report relevant
information. On the same day, the CSRC also held a press conference for the release of the Overseas Listing Trial Measures and issued
the Notice on Administration for the Filing of Overseas Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies, which clarifies that on or prior
to the effective date of the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, domestic companies that have already submitted valid applications for overseas
offering and listing but have not obtained clearance from overseas regulatory authorities or stock exchanges may reasonably arrange the
timing for submitting their filing applications with the CSRC, and must complete the filing before the completion of their overseas offering
and listing. The required filing scope is not limited to the initial public offering, but also includes any subsequent overseas securities
offering, single or multiple acquisition(s), share swap, transfer of shares or other means to seek an overseas direct or indirect listing
and a secondary listing or dual major listing of issuers already listed overseas. As advised by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law Firm, since
the operating entity accounted for more than 50% of our consolidated revenues, profit, total assets or net assets for the fiscal years
ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the key components of our operations are carried out in China, this offering is considered an indirect
offering by China-based companies, and we are, therefore, subject to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures for filing procedures with the
CSRC in connection with this offering and are required to file with the CSRC within three working days after the completion of this offering.
We will submit our filing application to the CSRC within three working days after the completion of this offering.
Furthermore, on February 24, 2023, the CSRC and
other relevant government authorities promulgated the Provisions on Strengthening the Confidentiality and Archives Administration of
Overseas Securities Issuance and Listing by Domestic Enterprises which were issued in 2009, or the Provision on Confidentiality. The
Provision on Confidentiality became effective on March 31, 2023. Pursuant to the Provision on Confidentiality, where a domestic enterprise
provides or publicly discloses documents and materials involving state secrets and working secrets of state organs to the relevant securities
companies, securities service institutions, overseas regulatory authorities and other entities and individuals, or provides or publicly
discloses such information through its overseas listing subjects, it shall report to the competent department with the examination and
approval authority for approval in accordance with the law, and submit to the secrecy administration department of the same level for
filing. Domestic enterprises providing accounting archives or copies thereof to entities and individuals concerned such as securities
companies, securities service institutions and overseas regulatory authorities shall complete the corresponding procedures pursuant to
the relevant provisions of the State. We believe that this offering does not involve the leaking of any state secret or working secret
of government agencies, or the harming of national security and public interests. However, we may be required to perform additional procedures
in connection with the provision of accounting archives.
Since these statements and regulatory actions
by the PRC government are newly published and there exists uncertainty with respect to their requirements and implementation, it is highly
uncertain what the potential impact such modified or new laws and regulations will have on our or Haoxi Beijing’s daily business
operation, the ability to accept foreign investments and listing on U.S. exchanges. We cannot assure you that we will be able to fully
comply with such rules, to conduct this offering, or to maintain the listing status of our securities, or to conduct any overseas securities
offerings in the future. For details of the associated risks, see “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—The
CSRC has promulgated Overseas Listing Trial Measures on February 17, 2023. Our offering will be determined to be an indirect overseas
offering and is, therefore, subject to the CSRC filing procedures, which could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to
offer or continue to offer our Class A Ordinary Shares to investors and could cause the value of our Class A Ordinary Shares to significantly
decline or become worthless.”
Except for the filing procedures with the CSRC
and reporting of relevant information according to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, as of the date of this prospectus, we are not
required to obtain any other permission from any other PRC governmental authorities to offer securities to foreign investors. As of the
date of this prospectus, neither we nor our subsidiaries have received any inquiry, notice, warning, or sanction regarding our overseas
listing from the CSRC or any other PRC governmental authorities. Since these statements and regulatory actions are newly published, however,
official guidance and related implementation rules have not been issued. It is highly uncertain what the potential impact such modified
or new laws and regulations will have on the daily business operations of our subsidiaries, our ability to accept foreign investments,
and our listing on a U.S. exchange in the future. We cannot guarantee that new rules or regulations promulgated in the future will not
impose any additional requirement on us, or the operating entity, or otherwise tightening the regulations on overseas listing of PRC
domestic companies. If it is determined that this offering is subject to any other governmental authorization or requirements, we cannot
assure you we or the operating entity could obtain such approval or meet such requirements in a timely manner or at all. Such failure
may subject us or the operating entity to fines, penalties or other sanctions which may have a material adverse effect on our business
and financial conditions as well as its ability to complete this offering. Although we endeavor to comply with all the applicable laws
and regulations, if (i) the operating entity does not receive or maintain applicable permissions or approvals for our operation, and
to offer the securities being registered to investors, or (ii) we inadvertently conclude that such permissions or approvals are not required,
or applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change and the operating entity is required to obtain permissions or approvals in
the future, the operating entity’s business operation may be materially affected. There can be no assurance that we or the operating
entity can obtain all requisite approvals without material disruption to the operating entity’s business. Therefore, any failure
to obtain all requisite approvals may significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to
investors and could cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless. See “Risk Factors—Risks
Related to Doing Business in China—The CSRC has promulgated Overseas Listing Trial Measures on February 17, 2023. Our offering
will be determined to be an indirect overseas offering and is, therefore, subject to CSRC the filing procedures, which could significantly
limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer our Class A Ordinary Shares to investors and could cause the value
of our Class A Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or become worthless” and “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing
Business in China—Any requirement to obtain prior approval under the M&A Rules and/or any other regulations promulgated by
relevant PRC regulatory agencies in the future could limit or delay this offering and failure to obtain any such approvals, if required,
could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and reputation, as well as the trading price of our Class A Ordinary
Shares, and could also create uncertainties for this offering and affect our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors
outside China.”
In addition, our Class A Ordinary Shares may
be prohibited from trading on a national exchange under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, or the HFCA Act, as amended by
the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, if the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the “PCAOB”)
is unable to inspect our auditors for two consecutive years. On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a report on its determinations that
it was unable to inspect or investigate completely PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and in Hong
Kong, a Special Administrative Region of the PRC, because of positions taken by PRC authorities in those jurisdictions. Our auditor,
Wei, Wei & Co., LLP, is not headquartered in mainland China or Hong Kong and was not identified in this report as a firm subject
to the PCAOB’s determination. Our auditor, Wei, Wei & Co., LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that issues
the audit report included elsewhere in this prospectus, as an auditor of companies that are traded publicly in the United States and
a firm registered with the PCAOB, is subject to laws in the United States pursuant to which the PCAOB conducts regular inspections to
assess its compliance with the applicable professional standards. Our auditor’s registration with the PCAOB took effect in March
2006, and it is currently subject to PCAOB inspections, having its last inspection completed as of December 31, 2022. The PCAOB currently
has access to inspect the working papers of our auditor. If trading in our Class A Ordinary Shares is prohibited under the HFCA Act in
the future because the PCAOB determines that it cannot inspect or fully investigate our auditor at such future time, Nasdaq may determine
to delist our Class A Ordinary Shares and trading in our Class A Ordinary Shares could be prohibited. On August 26, 2022, the CSRC, the
Ministry of Finance of the PRC (the “MOF”), and the PCAOB signed a Statement of Protocol (the “Protocol”), governing
inspections and investigations of accounting firms based in mainland China and Hong Kong, taking the first step toward opening access
for the PCAOB to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong. Pursuant to
the fact sheet with respect to the Protocol disclosed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the PCAOB
shall have independent discretion to select any issuer audits for inspection or investigation and has the unfettered ability to transfer
information to the SEC. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB Board determined that the PCAOB was able to secure complete access to inspect
and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate its previous determinations
to the contrary. However, should PRC authorities obstruct or otherwise fail to facilitate the PCAOB’s access in the future, the
PCAOB Board will consider the need to issue a new determination. On December 29, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Accelerating
Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act as a part of the legislation entitled “Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023” (the
“Consolidated Appropriations Act”), amending the HFCA Act and requiring the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities
from trading on any U.S. stock exchange if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three
consecutive years. The PCAOB continues to demand complete access in mainland China and Hong Kong moving forward and is 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 also indicated that it will act immediately to consider the need to issue new determinations with the HFCA Act,
if needed.
See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to
Doing Business in China—Recent joint statement by the SEC and the PCAOB, rule changes by Nasdaq, and the HFCA 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 our continued listing
or future offerings of our securities in the U.S.”
As of the date of this prospectus, none of our
subsidiaries have made any dividends or distributions to our Company and our Company has not made any dividends or distributions to our
shareholders. We intend to keep any future earnings to finance the expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate that any cash
dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future. If we determine to pay dividends on any of our Class A Ordinary Shares in the future,
as a holding company, we will be dependent on receipt of funds from our PRC subsidiary, Haoxi Beijing. For more detailed discussion of
how cash and other assets are transferred among our Company and our subsidiaries, see “Prospectus Summary—Dividend Distributions,
Cash Transfer, and Tax Consequences,” “Prospectus Summary—Selected Condensed Consolidating Financial Schedule of Haoxi
Health Technology Limited and Its Subsidiaries,” and our audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended June
30, 2023 and 2022. To the extent cash in the business is in the PRC, such funds may not be available to fund operations or for other
use outside of the PRC, due to interventions of, or the imposition of restrictions and limitations on the ability of our Company and
Haoxi Beijing by, the PRC government to transfer cash. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—To
the extent cash or assets of our business, or of Haoxi Beijing, is in the PRC, such cash or assets may not be available to fund operations
or for other use outside of the PRC, due to interventions of, or the imposition of restrictions and limitations by, the PRC government
to the transfer of cash or assets.” PRC regulations currently permit Haoxi Beijing to pay dividends only out of its accumulated
profits, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, if Haoxi Beijing distributes
its after-tax profits for the current financial year, it is required to set aside, at a minimum, 10% of its net income, if any, to fund
a statutory surplus reserve until the cumulative amount of such reserve reaches 50% of its registered capital, and such reserve may not
be distributed as cash dividends. PRC laws and regulations allow us to provide funding to Haoxi Beijing only through loans or capital
contributions, subject to the filing or approval of government authorities and limits on the amount of capital contributions and loans.
As a result, in the event that Haoxi Beijing incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict
any such entity’s ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing
Business in China—PRC regulations of loans to, and direct investment in, PRC entities by offshore holding companies, and governmental
control of currency conversion may limit our ability to use the proceeds of this offering to make loans or additional capital contributions
to Haoxi Beijing, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.” Our
finance department supervises cash management, following the instructions of our management. Our finance department is responsible for
establishing our cash operation plan and coordinating cash management matters among our subsidiaries and departments. Each subsidiary
and department initiates a cash request by putting forward a cash demand plan, which explains the specific amount and timing of cash
requested, and submits it to our finance department. The finance department reviews the cash demand plan and prepares a summary for the
management of our Company. Management examines and approves the allocation of cash based on the sources of cash and the priorities of
the needs. Other than the above, we currently do not have other cash management policies or procedures that dictate how funds are transferred.
In April 2024, the Company transferred $350,000 to Haoxi HK, and then Haoxi HK transferred $300,000 to WFOE. In May 2024, the Company
transferred $950,000 to Haoxi HK.
We are an “emerging growth company”
as defined under the federal securities laws and will be subject to reduced public company reporting requirements. Please read the disclosures
beginning on page 14 of this prospectus for more information.
Following the completion of this offering,
our largest shareholder, Mr. Zhen Fan, who is also the chief executive officer (“CEO”) and the chairman of the board of directors
of the Company, will beneficially own approximately 90.02% of the aggregate voting power of our issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary
Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares as a group, assuming no exercise of the Warrants. Mr. Fan will have the ability to control matters
requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors, amendment of memorandum and articles of association and approval
of certain major corporate transactions in accordance with the Cayman Companies Act. As such, we will be deemed a “controlled company”
under Nasdaq Marketplace Rules 5615(c). However, even if we are deemed as a “controlled company,” we do not intend to avail
ourselves of the corporate governance exemptions afforded to a “controlled company” under the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules. See
“Risk Factors” and “Management—Controlled Company.”

business is conducted by our subsidiary, Haoxi Beijing, in China using RMB. Our consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S.
dollars. In this prospectus, we refer to assets, obligations, commitments, and liabilities in our consolidated financial statements in
U.S. dollars. These dollar references are based on the exchange rate of RMB to U.S. dollars, determined as of a specific date or for
a specific period. Changes in the exchange rate will affect the amount of our obligations and the value of our assets in terms of U.S.
dollars which may result in an increase or decrease in the amount of our obligations (expressed in dollars) and the value of our assets,
including accounts receivable (expressed in dollars).
PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
The following summary is qualified in its
entirety by, and should be read in conjunction with, the more detailed information and financial statements included elsewhere in this
prospectus. In addition to this summary, we urge you to read the entire prospectus carefully, especially the risks of investing in our
Class A Ordinary Shares, discussed under “Risk Factors,” before deciding whether to buy our Class A Ordinary Shares.
Corporate Structure
We are an offshore holding company incorporated
in the Cayman Islands as an exempted company limited by shares. Exempted companies are Cayman Island companies conducting business mainly
outside the Cayman Islands and, as such, are exempted from complying with certain provisions of the Companies Act (as Revised) of the
Cayman Islands (the “Cayman Companies Act”). As a holding company with no material operations of our own, our operations
are conducted in China through our wholly owned indirect PRC subsidiary, Haoxi Beijing. This is an offering of securities of the offshore
holding company in the Cayman Islands, instead of securities of the operating entity in China. Therefore, you will not directly hold
any equity interests in the operating entity.
The following diagram illustrates our corporate
structure as of the date of this prospectus. For more details on our corporate history, please refer to “Corporate History and
Structure.”

We are subject to certain legal and operational
risks associated with business operations of Haoxi Beijing in China, which could cause the value of our securities to significantly decline
or become worthless. Applicable PRC laws and regulations governing such current business operations are sometimes vague and uncertain,
and as a result these risks may result in material changes in the operations of Haoxi Beijing, significant depreciation or a complete
loss of the value of our Class A Ordinary Shares, or a complete hindrance of our ability to offer, or continue to offer, our securities
to investors.
In addition, our Class A Ordinary Shares may
be prohibited from trading on a national exchange under the HFCA Act, as amended by the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable
Act, if the PCAOB is unable to inspect our auditors for two consecutive years. On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a report on its
determinations that it was unable to inspect or investigate completely PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland
China and in Hong Kong, a Special Administrative Region of the PRC, because of positions taken by PRC authorities in those jurisdictions.
Our auditor, Wei, Wei & Co., LLP, is not headquartered in mainland China or Hong Kong and was not identified in this report as a
firm subject to the PCAOB’s determination. Our auditor, Wei, Wei & Co., LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm
that issues the audit report included elsewhere in this prospectus, as an auditor of companies that are traded publicly in the United
States and a firm registered with the PCAOB, is subject to laws in the United States pursuant to which the PCAOB conducts regular inspections
to assess its compliance with the applicable professional standards. Our auditor’s registration with the PCAOB took effect in March
2006, and it is currently subject to PCAOB inspections, having its last inspection completed as of December 31, 2022. The PCAOB currently
has access to inspect the working papers of our auditor. If trading in our Class A Ordinary Shares is prohibited under the HFCA Act in
the future because the PCAOB determines that it cannot inspect or fully investigate our auditor at such future time, Nasdaq may determine
to delist our Class A Ordinary Shares and trading in our Class A Ordinary Shares could be prohibited. On August 26, 2022, the CSRC, the
MOF, and the PCAOB signed the Protocol, governing inspections and investigations of accounting firms based in mainland China and Hong
Kong, taking the first step toward opening access for the PCAOB to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered
in mainland China and Hong Kong. Pursuant to the fact sheet with respect to the Protocol disclosed by the SEC, the PCAOB shall have independent
discretion to select any issuer audits for inspection or investigation and has the unfettered ability to transfer information to the
SEC. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB Board determined that the PCAOB was able to secure complete access to inspect and investigate registered
public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate its previous determinations to the contrary.
However, should PRC authorities obstruct or otherwise fail to facilitate the PCAOB’s access in the future, the PCAOB Board will
consider the need to issue a new determination. On December 29, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Accelerating Holding Foreign
Companies Accountable Act as a part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, amending the HFCA Act and requiring the SEC to prohibit an
issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchange if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive
years instead of three consecutive years. The PCAOB continues to demand complete access in mainland China and Hong Kong moving forward
and is 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 also indicated that it will act immediately to consider the need to issue new determinations
with the HFCA Act, if needed.
See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating
to Doing Business in the PRC—Recent joint statement by the SEC and the PCAOB, rule changes by Nasdaq, and the HFCA 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 our continued listing
or future offerings of our securities in the U.S.”
Overview
The operating entity is an online marketing solution
provider in China, with an advertiser client base mainly in the healthcare industry. The growth of the operating entity in recent years
has benefited from the quick increase of news feed ads, its major form of ad placement, in the industry of online marketing in China.
In addition, the healthcare industry in China has developed rapidly because of the growth of average income and the aging population,
which provides a conducive environment for the development of the operating entity’s business. The operating entity has a management
team with several years of experience in marketing for healthcare companies. Its own data analysis software, “Bidding Compass,”
has helped it obtain ad placement data. Moreover, it has developed a stable placement with mainstream online advertising platforms in
China and has been working closely with them since its establishment in 2018.
The operating entity mainly generates its revenue
by providing one-stop online marketing solutions, in particular online short video marketing solutions, to advertisers through its media
partners. The operating entity provides customized marketing solutions by planning, producing, placing, and optimizing online ads, especially
online short video ads, to help its advertisers acquire, convert, and retain ultimate consumers on various online media platforms. The
operating entity has served approximately 2,000 advertisers since its incorporation in 2018, the majority of which are healthcare companies.
During the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, it served 338 and 183 advertiser customers, respectively. During the fiscal years
ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, it served 393 and 243 advertiser customers, respectively, of which 341 and 128 were healthcare companies,
respectively. The operating entity primarily places its ads through mainstream online short video platforms and social media platforms
in China, such as Toutiao (今日头条), Douyin (抖音), WeChat (微信), and Sina Weibo (新浪微博).
The operating entity is dedicated to reducing costs and increasing efficiency for its advertisers and offering them easy online marketing
solutions.
The following table sets forth some key performance
indicators (“KPIs”) of the operating entity’s online marketing solutions for the periods indicated below.

1. |
Impressions refer to the
number of page views of an ad, which are counted and judged as “valid” by media platforms’ backend system and charged
by media platforms. A media platforms’ backend system instantly checks if a page view is valid when an ad is displayed. Invalid
page views include fraudulent page views or a large amount of page views in a short period of time on the same ad by an identical
user account, of which the duplicate views will not be counted towards the number of impressions. Page views that are not identified
as “invalid” are considered as valid by the media platform’s backend system. |
2. |
When an Internet user clicks
on an ad, a click incident is triggered, and this incident is considered a click-through. |
3. |
When an Internet user submits
a survey, sheet, or other interactive forms contained in the advertisement with the user’s contact information after the click-through,
a submission incident is triggered, and this incident is considered a conversion. |
4. |
Click-through rate (“CTR”)
is calculated by dividing the total number of click-throughs by the total number of impressions. CTR provides useful information
on monitoring the effect and quality of ad placement, the attractiveness of ads to Internet users, the creativeness of ads, and the
accuracy of selecting the placement target audience. Management of the operating entity uses CTR to monitor the percentage of Internet
users attracted by it. CTR also enables the operating entity’s management to adjust placement plan and content design of an
ad. |
5. |
Conversion rate (“CVR”)
is calculated by dividing the total number of conversions by the number of click-throughs. CVR provides useful information on monitoring
the effect and quality of ad placement, the effect and quality of the interactive form included in an ad, the attractiveness of the
interactive form to Internet users, and the accuracy of selecting the placement target audience. Management of the operating entity
uses CVR to monitor the final and overall effect, quality, and attractiveness of ad placement and the interactive form after the
click-through. CVR also enables the operating entity’s management to adjust the placement plan and content design of an ad. |
For the six months ended December 31, 2023 and
2022, we had revenues of $23.50 million and $9.16 million, respectively, and net income of $0.76 million and $0.45 million, respectively.
For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and
2022, we had revenue of $28.23 million and $16.16 million, respectively, and net income of $0.97 million and $0.24 million, respectively.

Risks Related to the Operating Entity’s Business and Industry
Risks and uncertainties related to the operating
entity’s business include, but are not limited to, the following:
|
● |
if advertisers stop purchasing
online marketing services from the operating entity or decrease the amount they are willing to spend on marketing campaigns and promotional
activities, or if the operating entity is unable to establish and maintain new relationships with advertisers, its business, financial
condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. See “Risk Factors— Risks Related to the
Operating Entity’s Business and Industry—If advertisers stop purchasing online marketing services from the operating

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Our Operations and Financial
Performance
COVID-19 pandemic resurgences have affected the
operating entity’s business operations in the following manner.
From the middle of 2022 to December 2022, the
economy in China slowed down when large-scale COVID-19 resurgences happened in multiple metropolitan areas of China and restrictive measures
were widely taken. Several types of COVID-19 variants have emerged in different parts of the world, as well as in China. Restrictions
and temporary lockdowns had been re-imposed in certain cities in China to combat the outbreaks of COVID-19. As result, our average revenue
per customer during the six months ended December 31, 2022 was lower compared to that for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
However, because more people opted to use various online services since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an increase
in the number of the operating entity’s advertiser customers for the six months ended December 31, 2022 compared to that for the
six months ended December 31, 2021.
Since December 2022, many of the restrictive
policies previously adopted by the Chinese government at various levels to control the spread of COVID-19 have been revoked or replaced
with more flexible measures. As a result, Internet users have more chances to purchase the healthcare services they are interested in
in person after watching the online advertisements of our advertiser customers. We believe this has incentivized our advertiser customers
to invest more of their budget in placing online advertisements. While our average revenue per customer during the six months ended December
31, 2022 was negatively impacted by COVID-19 and relevant restrictive measures, our revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023
overall were not materially affected by COVID-19. The average revenue per customer has increased from $66,489 for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2022 to $71,830 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. In addition, the number of advertiser customers that the operating
entity served has increased from 243 customers during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, to 393 customers during the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2023, representing a 61.7% increase. As a result, our revenues generated from online marketing and digital advertising services
has increased by $12,072,284 from the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. For the six months ended
December 31, 2023, our revenues were not affected by COVID-19, and have increased by $14,341,078 from the six months ended December 31,
2022. Our net income has increased by $313,152 from the six months ended December 31, 2022, to the six months ended December 31, 2023.
See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Results of Operations—Results
of Operations—For Six Months Ended December 31, 2021 and 2022—Revenue.”
However, any resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic
could negatively affect the execution of customer contracts and the collection of customer payments. The extent of any future impact
of the COVID-19 pandemic on the operating entity’s business is still uncertain and cannot be predicted as of the date of this prospectus.
Any potential impact to its operating results will depend, to a large extent, on future developments and new information that may emerge
regarding the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and the actions taken by government authorities to contain the spread of
the COVID-19 pandemic, almost all of which are beyond our control.
See “Management’s Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—COVID-19 Pandemic’s Impact on the Operating Entity’s Results
of Operations” and “Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Operating Entity’s Business and Industry—Pandemics,
epidemics and other outbreaks, natural disasters, terrorist activities, and political unrest could disrupt the PRC operating entities’
delivery and operations, which could materially and adversely affect their business, financial condition, and results of operations.”
Permissions or Filing Procedures Required from PRC Authorities
As of the date of this prospectus, we and our
subsidiaries in the PRC, (i) are not covered by additional permissions or approval requirements from any governmental agency that is
required to approve the operations of the operating entity, (ii) do not need, except the business license, any other licenses, permissions,
and approvals to engage in the businesses currently conducted in the PRC. The WFOE and Haoxi Beijing are both required to have, and each
has obtained, a business license, which is requisite for all companies incorporated in China and issued by the PRC State Administration
for Market Regulation (the “SAMR”) or its local counterparts. However, we cannot assure you that the operating entity will
be able to receive clearance of any additional compliance requirements in a timely manner, or at all, if it is required to obtain other
licenses, permissions or approvals to engage in the industry it currently operates in. Any failure of the operating entity to fully comply
with such compliance requirements may cause the operating entity to be unable to begin new businesses or operations in the PRC, subject
them to fines, subject relevant new businesses or operations to suspension for rectification, or other sanctions. See “Risk Factors—Risks
Related to the Operating Entity’s Business and Industry—The regulatory environment of the online advertising industry is
rapidly evolving. If the operating entity fails to obtain and maintain the requisite licenses and approvals applicable to its business
in China from time to time, its business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.”
of this prospectus.
As advised by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law Firm,
we are subject to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures filing procedures with the CSRC and shall file with the CSRC within three working
days after the completion of this offering. We have been closely monitoring regulatory developments in China regarding any necessary
approvals from the CSRC or any other PRC governmental authorities required for overseas listings, including this offering. As of the
date of this prospectus, we have not received any inquiry, notice, warning, sanctions or regulatory objection to this offering from the
CSRC or other PRC governmental authorities. However, there remains significant uncertainty as to the enactment, interpretation and implementation
of regulatory requirements related to overseas securities offerings and other capital markets activities, including, but not limited
to, the Overseas Listing Trial Measures. Although we endeavor to comply with all the applicable laws and regulations, if (i) the operating
entity does not receive or maintain applicable permissions or approvals for our operation and to offer the securities being registered
to investors, or (ii) we inadvertently conclude that such permissions or approvals are not required, or applicable laws, regulations,
or interpretations change and the operating entity is required to obtain permissions or approvals in the future, the operating entity’s
business operation may be materially affected. There can be no assurance that we or the operating entity can obtain all requisite approvals
without material disruption to the operating entity’s business. Therefore, any failure to obtain all requisite approvals may significantly
limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and could cause the value of such securities
to significantly decline or be worthless. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—The CSRC has promulgated
Overseas Listing Trial Measures on February 17, 2023. Our offering will be determined to be an indirect overseas offering and is, therefore,
subject to CSRC the filing procedures, which could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer
our Class A Ordinary Shares to investors and could cause the value of our Class A Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or become
worthless” and “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—Any requirement to obtain prior approval
under the M&A Rules and/or any other regulations promulgated by relevant PRC regulatory agencies in the future could limit or delay
this offering and failure to obtain any such approvals, if required, could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating
results and reputation, as well as the trading price of our Class A Ordinary Shares, and could also create uncertainties for this offering
and affect our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors outside China.”
Recently, the PRC government adopted a series
of regulatory actions and issued statements to regulate business operations in China with little advance notice, including cracking down
on illegal activities in the securities market, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding the
efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. On December 28, 2021, 13 governmental departments of the PRC, including the CAC, issued the Cybersecurity
Review Measures, which became effective on February 15, 2022. As of the date of this prospectus, neither we nor our subsidiaries have
been involved in any investigations on cybersecurity review initiated by any PRC regulatory authority, nor has any of them received any
inquiry, notice, or sanction related to cybersecurity review under the Cybersecurity Review Measures. On November 14, 2021, the CAC published
the Security Administration Draft, which provides that data processing operators engaging in data processing activities that affect or
may affect national security must be subject to network data security review by the relevant Cyberspace Administration of the PRC. According
to the Security Administration Draft, data processing operators who possess personal data of at least one million users or collect data
that affects or may affect national security must be subject to network data security review by the relevant Cyberspace Administration
of the PRC. The deadline for public comments on the Security Administration Draft was December 13, 2021. The Security Administration
Draft has not been fully implemented as of the date of this prospectus. As confirmed by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law Firm, we are not
subject to cybersecurity review by the CAC under the Cybersecurity Review Measures, nor are we subject to network data security by the
CAC if the Security Administration Draft is enacted as proposed, since Haoxi Beijing’s business does not involve processing users’
personal information and it is not deemed as a CIIO, nor is it an online platform operator with personal information of more than one
million users. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—Any requirement to obtain prior approval
under the M&A Rules and/or any other regulations promulgated by relevant PRC regulatory agencies in the future could limit or delay
this offering and failure to obtain any such approvals, if required, could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating
results and reputation, as well as the trading price of our Class A Ordinary Shares, and could also create uncertainties for this offering
and affect our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors outside China.” As of the date of this prospectus,
neither we nor our subsidiaries have received any inquiry, notice, warning, or sanction regarding our overseas listing from the CSRC
or any other PRC governmental authorities. Since these statements and regulatory actions are newly published, however, official guidance
and related implementation rules have not been issued. It is highly uncertain what the potential impact such modified or new laws and
regulations will have on the daily business operations of our subsidiaries, our ability to accept foreign investments, and our listing
on a U.S. exchange. The Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress (the “SCNPC”) or PRC regulatory authorities
may in the future promulgate laws, regulations, or implementing rules that require us and our subsidiaries to obtain regulatory approval
from Chinese authorities before listing in the U.S.
On February 17, 2023, the CSRC released the Overseas
Listing Trial Measures, which came into effect on March 31, 2023. According to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, domestic companies
that seek to offer or list securities overseas, both directly and indirectly, should fulfill the filing procedures and report relevant
information to the CSRC; any failure to comply with such filling procedures may result in administrative penalties, such as orders to
rectify, warnings, and fines (ranging from RMB1 million to RMB10 million, or approximately $145,000 to $1,450,000). The required filing
scope is not limited to the initial public offering, but also includes any subsequent overseas securities offering, single or multiple
acquisition(s), share swap, transfer of shares or other means to seek an overseas direct or indirect listing and a secondary listing
or dual major listing of issuers already listed overseas. On February 24, 2023, the CSRC revised the Provision on Confidentiality issued
in 2009. The revised Provision on Confidentiality came into effect on March 31, 2023. In the overseas listing activities of domestic
companies, domestic companies, as well as securities companies and securities service institutions providing relevant securities services
thereof, should establish a sound system of confidentiality and archival work, shall not disclose state secrets, or harm the state and
public interests. We believe that this offering does not involve the leaking of any state secret or working secret of government agencies,
or the harming of national security and public interests. However, we may be required to perform additional procedures in connection
with the provision of accounting archives.
As advised by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law Firm,
as of the date of this prospectus and based on the laws and regulations currently in effect, since the operating entity accounted for
more than 50% of our consolidated revenues, profit, total assets or net assets for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and
the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the key components of our operations are carried out in China, this offering is considered
an indirect offering by China-based companies, and we are, therefore, subject to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures for filing procedures
with the CSRC. We will submit our filing application to the CSRC within three working days after the completion of this offering. We
have been closely monitoring regulatory developments in China regarding any necessary approvals from the CSRC or any other PRC governmental
authorities required for overseas listings, including this offering. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not received any inquiry,
notice, warning, sanctions or regulatory objection to this offering from the CSRC or other PRC governmental authorities. However, there
remains significant uncertainty as to the enactment, interpretation and implementation of regulatory requirements related to overseas
securities offerings and other capital markets activities, including, but not limited to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures. Although
we endeavor to comply with all the applicable laws and regulations, if (i) the operating entity does not receive or maintain applicable
permissions or approvals for our operation and to offer the securities being registered to investors, or (ii) we inadvertently conclude
that such permissions or approvals are not required, or applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change and the operating entity
is required to obtain permissions or approvals in the future, the operating entity’s business operation may be materially affected.
There can be no assurance that we or the operating entity can obtain all requisite approvals without material disruption to the operating
entity’s business. Therefore, any failure to obtain all requisite approvals may significantly limit or completely hinder our ability
to continue to offer securities to investors and could cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless. See
“Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—The CSRC has promulgated Overseas Listing Trial Measures on
February 17, 2023. Our offering will be determined to be an indirect overseas offering and is, therefore, subject to the CSRC filing
procedures, which could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer our Class A Ordinary Shares
to investors and could cause the value of our Class A Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or become worthless.”
Dividend Distributions, Cash Transfer,
and Tax Consequences
As of the date of this prospectus, none of our
subsidiaries have made any dividends or distributions to our Company and our Company has not made any dividends or distributions to our
shareholders. We intend to keep any future earnings to finance the expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate that any cash
dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future. If we determine to pay dividends on any of our Class A Ordinary Shares in the future,
as a holding company, we will be dependent on receipt of funds from our PRC subsidiary, Haoxi Beijing. For more detailed discussion of
how cash and other assets are transferred among our Company and our subsidiaries, see also “Prospectus Summary—Selected Condensed
Consolidating Financial Schedule of Haoxi Health Technology Limited and Its Subsidiaries,” and our audited consolidated financial
statements (“CFS”) as of and for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 and unaudited CFS as of and for the six months
ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.
To the extent cash in the business is in the
PRC, such funds may not be available to fund operations or for other use outside of the PRC, due to interventions of, or the imposition
of restrictions and limitations on, the ability of our Company and Haoxi Beijing by the PRC government to transfer cash. See “Risk
Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—To the extent cash or assets of our business, or of Haoxi Beijing, is in
the PRC, such cash or assets may not be available to fund operations or for other use outside of the PRC, due to interventions of, or
the imposition of restrictions and limitations by, the PRC government to the transfer of cash or assets.” PRC regulations currently
permit Haoxi Beijing to pay dividends only out of its accumulated profits, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards
and regulations. In addition, if Haoxi Beijing distributes its after-tax profits for the current financial year, it is required to set
aside, at a minimum, 10% of its net income, if any, to fund a statutory surplus reserve until the cumulative amount of such reserve reaches
50% of its registered capital, and such reserve may not be distributed as cash dividends. PRC laws and regulations allow us to provide
funding to Haoxi Beijing only through loans or capital contributions, subject to the filing or approval of government authorities and
limits on the amount of capital contributions and loans. As a result, in the event that Haoxi Beijing incurs debt on its own behalf in
the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict any such entity’s ability to pay dividends or make other distributions
to us. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—PRC regulations of loans to, and direct investment
in, PRC entities by offshore holding companies, and governmental control of currency conversion may limit our ability to use the proceeds
of this offering to make loans or additional capital contributions to Haoxi Beijing, which could materially and adversely affect our
liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.”
Our finance department supervises cash management,
following the instructions of our management. Our finance department is responsible for establishing our cash operation plan and coordinating
cash management matters among our subsidiaries and departments. Each subsidiary and department initiates a cash request by putting forward
a cash demand plan, which explains the specific amount and timing of cash requested, and submits it to our finance department. The finance
department reviews the cash demand plan and prepares a summary for the management of our Company. Management examines and approves the
allocation of cash based on the sources of cash and the priorities of the needs. Other than the above, we currently do not have other
cash management policies or procedures that dictate how funds are transferred. In April 2024, the Company transferred $350,000 to Haoxi
HK, and then Haoxi HK transferred $300,000 to WFOE. In May 2024, the Company transferred $950,000 to Haoxi HK.
Implications of Our Being an “Emerging Growth Company”
As a company with less than $1.235 billion in
revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business
Startups Act of 2012, or the “JOBS Act.” An “emerging growth company” may take advantage of reduced reporting
requirements that are otherwise applicable to larger public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company, we:
|
● |
may present only two years
of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations; |
|
|
|
|
● |
are not required to provide
a detailed narrative disclosure discussing our compensation principles, objectives and elements and analyzing how those elements
fit with our principles and objectives, which is commonly referred to as “compensation discussion and analysis”; |
|
|
|
|
● |
are not required to obtain
an attestation and report from our auditors on our management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting
pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; |
|
|
|
|
● |
are not required to obtain
a non-binding advisory vote from our shareholders on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements (commonly referred to
as the “say-on-pay,” “say-on frequency,” and “say-on-golden-parachute” votes); |
|
|
|
|
● |
are exempt from certain
executive compensation disclosure provisions requiring a pay-for-performance graph and chief executive officer pay ratio disclosure; |
|
|
|
|
● |
are eligible to claim longer
phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under §107 of the JOBS Act; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
will not be required to
conduct an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting until our second annual report on Form 20-F following the
effectiveness of our initial public offering. |
We intend to take advantage of all of these reduced
reporting requirements and exemptions, including the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting
standards under §107 of the JOBS Act. Our election to use the phase-in periods may make it difficult to compare our financial statements
to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the phase-in periods under §107
of the JOBS Act.
Under the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of
the above-described reduced reporting requirements and exemptions until we no longer meet the definition of an emerging growth company.
The JOBS Act provides that we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” at the end of the fiscal year in which the fifth
anniversary of our initial sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), occurred, if we have more than $1.235 billion in annual revenue, have more than
$700 million in market value of our Class A Ordinary Shares held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1 billion in principal amount
of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.
Foreign Private Issuer Status
We are a foreign private issuer within the meaning
of the rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). As such, we are exempt from certain
provisions applicable to United States domestic public companies. For example:
|
● |
we are not required to
provide as many Exchange Act reports, or as frequently, as a domestic public company; |
|
|
|
|
● |
for interim reporting,
we are permitted to comply solely with our home country requirements, which are less rigorous than the rules that apply to domestic
public companies; |
|
|
|
|
● |
we are not required to
provide the same level of disclosure on certain issues, such as executive compensation; |
|
|
|
|
● |
we are exempt from provisions
of Regulation FD aimed at preventing issuers from making selective disclosures of material information; |
|
|
|
|
● |
we are not required to
comply with the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents, or authorizations in respect of a
security registered under the Exchange Act; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
we are not required to
comply with Section 16 of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their share ownership and trading activities
and establishing insider liability for profits realized from any “short-swing” trading transaction. |
We are required to file an annual report on Form
20-F within four months of the end of each fiscal year. Press releases relating to financial results and material events will also be
furnished to the SEC on Form 6-K. However, the information we are required to file with or furnish to the SEC will be less extensive
and less timely compared to that required to be filed with the SEC by U.S. domestic issuers. As a result, you may not be afforded the
same protections or information that would be made available to you were you investing in a U.S. domestic issuer.
The
Nasdaq listing rules provide that a foreign private issuer may follow the practices of its
home country, which for us is the Cayman Islands, rather than the Nasdaq rules as to certain
corporate governance requirements, including the requirement that the issuer have a majority
of independent directors, the audit committee, compensation committee, and nominating and
corporate governance committee requirements, the requirement to disclose third-party director
and nominee compensation, and the requirement to distribute annual and interim reports. A
foreign private issuer that follows a home country practice in lieu of one or more of the
listing rules is required to disclose in its annual reports filed with the SEC each requirement
that it does not follow and describe the home country practice followed by the issuer in
lieu of such requirements. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 generally provides that shareholder approval
is required of U.S. domestic companies listed on Nasdaq prior to issuance (or potential issuance)
of securities (i) the acquisition of the stock or assets of another company; (ii) equity-based
compensation of officers, directors, employees or consultants; (iii) a change of control;
and (iv) transactions other than public offerings. Notwithstanding this general requirement,
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5615(a)(3)(A) permits foreign private issuers to follow their home country
practice rather than these shareholder approval requirements. The Cayman Islands do not require
shareholder approval prior to any of the foregoing types of issuances. We, therefore, are
not required to obtain such shareholder approval prior to entering into a transaction with
the potential to issue securities as described above. Specifically, our board of directors
has elected to follow our home country rules and be exempt from the requirements to obtain
shareholder approval for (i) the acquisition of the stock or assets of another company; (ii)
equity-based compensation of officers, directors, employees or consultants; (iii) a change
of control; and (iv) transactions other than public offerings.
Controlled Company
Upon
completion of this offering, our CEO, Mr. Zhen Fan, will beneficially own approximately 90.02%
of the aggregate voting power of our issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares and Class
B Ordinary Shares as a group. Mr. Fan will have the ability to control matters requiring
shareholder approval, including the election of directors, amendment of memorandum and articles
of association and approval of certain major corporate transactions in accordance with the
Cayman Companies Act. As a result, we will be deemed a “controlled company” for
the purpose of the Nasdaq listing rules. As a controlled company, we are permitted to elect
to rely on certain exemptions from the obligations to comply with certain corporate governance
requirements, including:
|
● |
the requirement that our
director nominees be selected or recommended solely by independent directors; and |
|
● |
the requirement that we
have a nominating and corporate governance committee and a compensation committee that are composed entirely of independent directors
with a written charter addressing the purposes and responsibilities of the committees. |
Although we do not intend to rely on the controlled
company exemptions under the Nasdaq listing rules even if we are deemed a controlled company, we could elect to rely on these exemptions
in the future, and if so, you would not have the same protection afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the
corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq.

THE OFFERING
Securities offered
by us |
|
4,166,666 Units at an estimate
public offering price of $[ ] per Unit, with each Unit consisting of (i) one share
of Class A Ordinary Share, par value $0.0001 per share (or one pre-funded warrant to purchase one
Class A Ordinary Share), (ii) one Series A warrant to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share (subject
to certain adjustments, as described herein), and (iii) one Series B warrant to purchase such number
of Class A Ordinary Share as described on the cover of the prospectus). The Units will not be certificated
and the Class A Ordinary Shares and the Warrants are immediately separable and will be issued separately
in this offering.
|
|
|
|
Over-allotment option |
|
We have granted the Representative
an option, exercisable for 45 days from the closing of this offering, to purchase up to an aggregate of 15% additional Units at the
public offering price, less underwriting discounts. |

The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable on issuance at an exercise
price of $0.0001 per share of Class A Ordinary Shares and will not expire until exercised in full. The 5-year term Series A Warrants are
exercisable upon issuance and have an initial exercise price of $[ ] per Class A Ordinary Share. On the Series B Exercise Date, the exercise
price of the Series A Warrant will be adjusted to $[ ], i.e., one fifth of the per Unit offering price, and the maximum number of shares
issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrant will be adjusted to 20,833,333 shares, i.e., five times of the initial number of shares
issuable. The 5-year Series B Warrants will be exercisable at any time or times on or after the Series B Exercise Date at an exercise
price of $0.0001 per Class A Ordinary Share. The maximum number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series B Warrants will be 16,666,667
shares, obtained by subtracting (I) the sum of (x) the aggregate number of shares sold on the Closing Date and (y) the number of Class
A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise in full of any Pre-funded Warrants, from (II) the quotient determined by dividing (x) the sum
of (i) the aggregate purchase price paid and (ii) the aggregate of all exercise prices paid or payable upon exercise in full of the Pre-Funded
Warrants, by (y) $[ ], which equals to 20% of the Nasdaq Minimum Price under the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) immediately prior to effectiveness
of this Registration Statement. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Warrants will be issued in registered form under a warrant agency agreement between Transhare
Corporation, as warrant agent, and us. The Warrants will initially be represented only by one or more global warrants deposited with
the warrant agent, as custodian on behalf of The Depository Trust Company, or DTC, and registered in the name of Cede & Co.,
a nominee of DTC, or as otherwise directed by DTC. For more information regarding the Warrants, you should carefully read the section
titled “Underwriting—Warrants” in this prospectus, and the form of the Pre-funded Warrant, Series A Warrants, Series
B Warrants and warrant agent agreement, which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part
of. |

market for the Units or the Warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. We do not intend to apply for listing of the Units
or the Warrants on any securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, the liquidity
of the Units or the Warrants will be limited. |

Use of
proceeds |
|
We
estimate that we will receive net proceeds of approximately $11,417,064 from this offering,
assuming the sales of all of the Units we are offering and no exercise of the Warrants included
in the Units, after deducting an estimated underwriters’ discount and estimated offering
expenses payable by us.
We intend to use the proceeds from this offering
for working capital and general corporate purposes, acquiring or investing in technologies, solutions or businesses that complement
our business, and hiring experienced employees to improve our systems of internal control and compliance with U.S. GAAP and the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002. See “Use of Proceeds” on page 65 for more information. |
|
|
|
Dilution |
|
The offering price of our Class A Ordinary Shares is higher than the net tangible book value per
share of our Class A Ordinary Shares. Consequently, when you purchase our Class A Ordinary Shares in the offering, upon completion
of the offering you will incur immediate dilution of $2.399 per share. See “Dilution.” In addition, you may experience
further dilution upon the exercise of outstanding options by the Representative.
In addition, on the Series B Exercise Date,
the exercise price of the Series A Warrant will be adjusted to $[ ], i.e., one fifth of the per Unit offering price,
and the maximum number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrant will be adjusted to 20,833,333 shares, i.e., five times
of the initial number of shares issuable. The 5-year Series B Warrants will be exercisable at any time or times on or after the Series
B Exercise Date at an exercise price of $0.0001 per Class A Ordinary Share. The maximum number of shares issuable upon exercise of the
Series B Warrants will be 16,666,667 shares, obtained by subtracting (I) the sum of (x) the aggregate number of shares sold on the Closing
Date and (y) the number of Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise in full of any Pre-funded Warrants, from (II) the quotient
determined by dividing (x) the sum of (i) the aggregate purchase price paid and (ii) the aggregate of all exercise prices paid or payable
upon exercise in full of the Pre-Funded Warrants, by (y) $[ ], which equals to 20% of the Nasdaq Minimum Price under
the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) immediately prior to effectiveness of this Registration Statement. This is likely to result in substantial
dilution to our existing shareholders and is likely to cause the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares to decline.

Lock-up |
|
We, on behalf of ourselves and any successor
entity, have agreed that, without the prior written consent of the Representative, will not, during the “Engagement Period”
(being that period commencing from February 27, 2024, the date we engaged the Representative, or the “Engagement Date,”
to the earlier of (i) six (6) months from the Engagement Date, or (ii) the final closing, if any, of this offering), and for
a period of 90 days after the closing of this offering, (i) 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, our Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares or any securities convertible into
or exercisable or exchangeable for our Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares; (ii) file or cause to be filed any
registration statement with the SEC relating to the offering of our Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares or any
securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares; (iii)
complete any offering of debt securities of the Company, other than entering into a line of credit with a traditional bank; or
(iv) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences
of ownership of capital shares of our Company, whether any such transaction described in (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) above is to
be settled by delivery of our Class A Ordinary Shares or such other securities, in cash, or otherwise.
All of our directors and officers and our
shareholders holding over 5% or above of the outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares have agreed with the
Representative, not to offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract
to sell, grant any option, right, or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise to transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any
of our Class A Ordinary Shares, Class B Ordinary Shares, or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our Class
A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares for a period of 180 days from the closing of this offering. See “Shares Eligible
for Future Sale” and “Underwriting” for more information. |

Risk Factors |
|
The securities offered
hereby involve a high degree of risk. You should read “Risk Factors” beginning on page 24 for a discussion of factors
to consider before deciding to invest in the securities we offered. |
(1) |
The total
number of Ordinary Shares that will be outstanding immediately after this offering (assuming no
exercise of the Pre-funded Warrants, Series A Warrants, and Series B Warrants included in the Units and no exercise of the underwriter’s
over-allotment option) is based upon: |

RISK FACTORS
An investment in our Class A Ordinary Shares
involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our Class A Ordinary Shares, you should consider carefully the risks
described below, together with all of the other information set forth in this prospectus, including the section titled “Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our consolidated financial statements and related
notes. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flow could be materially
and adversely affected, which could cause the trading price of our Class A Ordinary Shares to decline, resulting in a loss of all or
part of your investment. The risks described below and discussed in other parts of this prospectus are not the only ones that we face.
Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business. You should only consider
investing in our Class A Ordinary Shares if you can bear the risk of loss of your entire investment.
Risks Related to Doing Business in China
Changes in the political and economic policies
of the PRC government or in relations between China and the United States or other governments may materially and adversely affect the
operating entity’s business, financial condition and results of operations and may result in its inability to sustain its growth
and expansion strategies.
Substantially all of the operating entity’s
operations are conducted in Beijing, PRC, and all of its revenue is generated from the PRC. Accordingly, the operating entity’s
financial condition and results of operations are affected to a significant extent by economic, political and legal developments in the
PRC or changes in government relations between China and the United States or other governments. There is significant uncertainty about
the future relationship between the United States and China with respect to trade policies, treaties, government regulations and tariffs.
The PRC economy differs from the economies of
most developed countries in many respects, including the extent of government involvement, level of development, growth rate, control
of foreign exchange and allocation of resources. Although the PRC government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of
market forces for economic reform, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets, and the establishment of improved corporate
governance in business enterprises, a substantial portion of productive assets in China are still owned by the government. In addition,
the PRC government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry development by imposing industrial policies. The PRC government
also exercises significant control over China’s economic growth by allocating resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated
obligations, setting monetary policies, regulating financial services and institutions, and providing preferential treatment to particular
industries or companies.
While the PRC economy has experienced significant
growth in the past four decades, growth has been different, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy. The PRC government
has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures may benefit
the overall PRC economy, but may also have a negative effect on the operating entity or us. Our financial condition and results of operations
could be materially and adversely affected by government control over capital investments or changes in tax regulations that are applicable
to it. In addition, the PRC government has implemented certain measures, including interest rate increases, to control the pace of economic
growth. These measures may cause decreased economic activities.
In July 2021, the Chinese government provided
new guidance on China-based companies raising capital outside of China, including through variable interest entity, or VIE, arrangements.
In light of such developments, the SEC has imposed enhanced disclosure requirements on China-based companies seeking to register securities
with the SEC. As all of the operating entity’s operations are based in China, any future Chinese, U.S. or other rules and
regulations that place restrictions on capital raising or other activities by China-based companies could adversely affect its business
and results of operations. If the business environment in China deteriorates from the perspective of domestic or international investment,
or if relations between China and the United States or other governments deteriorate, the Chinese government may intervene with the operating
entity’s operations, and the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares may also be adversely affected.
There are uncertainties regarding the interpretation
and enforcement of PRC laws, rules and regulations.
All of the operating entity’s operations
are conducted in the PRC, and are governed by PRC laws, rules and regulations. The operating entity is subject to laws, rules and
regulations applicable to foreign investment in China. The PRC legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike the
common law system, prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value.
In 1979, the PRC government began to promulgate
a comprehensive system of laws, rules and regulations governing economic matters in general. The overall effect of legislation over
the past four decades has significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investment in China. However, China
has not developed a fully integrated legal system, and recently enacted laws, rules and regulations may not sufficiently cover all
aspects of economic activities in China or may be subject to significant degrees of interpretation by PRC regulatory agencies. In particular,
because these laws, rules and regulations are relatively new, and because of the limited number of published decisions and the nonbinding
nature of such decisions, and because the laws, rules and regulations often give the relevant regulator significant discretion in
how to enforce them, the interpretation and enforcement of these laws, rules and regulations involve uncertainties and can be inconsistent
and unpredictable. In addition, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules, some of which are not
published on a timely basis or at all, and which may have a retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of the operating entity’s
violation of these policies and rules until after the violation.
Any administrative and court proceedings in China
may be protracted, resulting in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention. Since PRC administrative and court
authorities have significant discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms, it may be more difficult to
evaluate the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of legal protection the operating entity enjoys than in more
developed legal systems. These uncertainties may impede the operating entity’s ability to enforce the contracts it has entered
into and could materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.
Recently, the General Office of the Central Committee
of the Communist Party of China and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued the Opinions on Strictly Cracking Down Illegal
Securities Activities in Accordance with the Law (the “Illegal Securities Opinions”), which were made available to the
public on July 6, 2021. The Illegal Securities Opinions emphasized the need to strengthen the administration over illegal securities
activities, and the need to strengthen the supervision over overseas listings by Chinese companies. Effective measures, such as promoting
the construction of relevant regulatory systems, will be taken to address with the risks and incidents of China-concept overseas listed
companies, and cybersecurity and data privacy protection requirements and similar matters. The Illegal Securities Opinions remain unclear
on how the law will be interpreted, amended and implemented by the relevant PRC governmental authorities, but the Illegal Securities
Opinions and any related implementing rules to be enacted may subject the operating entity to compliance requirements in the future.
On July 10, 2021, the CAC issued a revised
draft of the Measures for Cybersecurity Review for public comments, which required that, among others, in addition to a CIIO,”
any “data processor” controlling personal information of no less than one million users which seeks to list in a foreign
stock exchange should also be subject to cybersecurity review, and further elaborated the factors to be considered when assessing the
national security risks of the relevant activities.
On November 14, 2021, the CAC released the
Regulations on Network Data Security (draft for public comments) and accepted public comments until December 13, 2021. The draft
Regulations on Network Data Security provide that data processors refer to individuals or organizations that autonomously determine the
purpose and the manner of processing data. If a data processor that processes personal data of more than one million users intends to
list overseas, it shall apply for a cybersecurity review. In addition, data processors that process important data or are listed overseas
shall carry out an annual data security assessment on their own or by engaging a data security services institution, and the data security
assessment report for the prior year should be submitted to the local cyberspace affairs administration department before January 31
of each year. On December 28, 2021, the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021 version) was promulgated and took effect on February 15,
2022, which iterates that any “online platform operators” controlling personal information of more than one million users
which seeks to list in a foreign stock exchange should also be subject to cybersecurity review. As advised by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro
Law Firm, the operating entity does not process users’ personal information and it is not deemed to be a CIIO nor is it an online
platform operator with personal information of more than one million users.
The operating entity is an online marketing service
provider, and neither the Company nor its subsidiaries engage in data activities as defined under the Personal Information Protection
Law of the People’s Republic of China (the “Personal Information Protection Law”), which includes, without limitation,
collection, storage, use, processing, transmission, provision, publication and deletion of data. In addition, neither the Company nor
its subsidiaries are operators of any “critical information infrastructure” as defined under the PRC Cybersecurity Law and
the Security Protection Measures on Critical Information Infrastructure. However, the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021 version)
was recently adopted and the Network Internet Data Protection Draft Regulations (draft for comments) is in the process of being formulated
and the Illegal Securities Opinions remain unclear on how such measures will be interpreted, amended and implemented by the relevant
PRC governmental authorities.
There remain uncertainties as to when the final
measures will be issued and take effect, how they will be enacted, interpreted or implemented, and whether they will affect us or our
subsidiaries. If we inadvertently conclude that the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021 version) do not apply to us or our subsidiaries,
or applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations change and it is determined in the future that the Measures for Cybersecurity Review
(2021 version) become applicable to us and our subsidiaries, we may be subject to review when conducting data processing activities,
and may face challenges in addressing its requirements and make necessary changes to our internal policies and practices. We may incur
substantial costs in complying with the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021 version), which could result in material adverse changes
in our business operations and financial position. If we are not able to fully comply with the Measures for Cybersecurity Review (2021
version), our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors may be significantly limited or completely hindered, and
our securities may significantly decline in value or become worthless.
On February 17, 2023, the CSRC released the Overseas
Listing Trial Measures, which came into effect on March 31, 2023. According to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, Chinese domestic
companies that seek to offer and list securities in overseas markets, either in direct or indirect means, are required to fulfill the
filing procedures with the CSRC and report relevant information, and such filings shall be submitted to the CSRC within three business
days after the submission of the overseas offering and listing application. Any failure to comply with such filling procedures may result
in administrative penalties, such as orders to rectify, warnings, and fines. The required filing scope is not limited to the initial
public offering, but also includes any subsequent overseas securities offerings, single or multiple acquisition(s), share swap, transfer
of shares or other means to seek an overseas direct or indirect listing and a secondary listing or dual major listing of issuers already
listed overseas. Subsequent securities offerings of an issuer in the same overseas market where it has previously offered and listed
securities shall be filed with the CSRC within 3 working days after the offering is completed. On February 24, 2023, the CSRC revised
the Provision on Confidentiality issued in 2009. The revised Provision on Confidentiality came into effect on March 31, 2023, which provide
that in the overseas listing activities of domestic companies, domestic companies, as well as securities companies and securities service
institutions providing relevant securities services thereof, should establish a sound system of confidentiality and archival work, shall
not disclose state secrets, or harm the state and public interests. We believe that this offering does not involve the leaking of any
state secret or working secret of government agencies, or the harming of national security and public interests. However, we may be required
to perform additional procedures in connection with the provision of accounting archives. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related
to Doing Business in China—The CSRC has promulgated Overseas Listing Trial Measures on February 17, 2023. Our offering will be
determined to be an indirect overseas offering and is, therefore, subject to the CSRC filing procedures, which could significantly limit
or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer our Class A Ordinary Shares to investors and could cause the value of
our Class A Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or become worthless.”
If the CSRC or other regulatory agencies later
promulgate new rules or explanations requiring that we obtain their approvals for this offering and any follow-on offering, we may
be unable to obtain such additional approvals, which could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to later offer or continue
to offer securities to our investors.
Furthermore, the PRC government authorities may
strengthen oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers like us.
Such actions taken by the PRC government authorities may intervene or influence our operations at any time, which are beyond our control.
Therefore, any such action may adversely affect our operations and significantly limit or hinder our ability to offer or continue to
offer securities to you and reduce the value of such securities.
Uncertainties regarding the enforcement of laws
and the fact that rules and regulations in China can change quickly with little advance notice, along with the risk that the Chinese
government may intervene or influence our operations at any time, or may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or
foreign investment in China-based issuers could result in a material change in our operations, financial performance and/or the value
of our Class A Ordinary Shares or impair our ability to raise money.
Substantial uncertainties exist with respect
to the interpretation and implementation of the PRC Foreign Investment Law and its Implementation Rules and how they may impact the viability
of our current corporate structure, corporate governance and business operations.
On March 15, 2019, the PRC National People’s
Congress approved the PRC Foreign Investment Law, which took effect on January 1, 2020 and replaced three existing laws on foreign
investment in China, namely, the Sino-foreign Equity Joint Venture Enterprise Law, the Sino-foreign Cooperative Joint Venture Enterprise
Law, and the Wholly Foreign-invested Enterprise Law, together with their implementation rules and ancillary regulations. On December
26, 2019, the PRC State Council approved the Implementation Rules of Foreign Investment Law, which came into effect on January 1, 2020.
Since the PRC Foreign Investment Law is relatively new, substantial uncertainties exist with respect to its interpretation and implementation.
According to the PRC Foreign Investment Law,
“foreign investment” refers to investment activities directly or indirectly conducted by foreign individuals, enterprises
or other entities in China. The PRC Foreign Investment Law sets out the basic regulatory framework for foreign investments and proposes
to implement a management system of pre-establishment national treatment with a “negative list” for foreign investments,
pursuant to which (i) an FIE under PRC law shall not invest in any sector forbidden by the negative list for access of foreign investment,
(ii) for any sector restricted by the negative list, an FIE shall conform to the investment conditions provided in the negative list,
and (iii) sectors not included in the negative list shall be managed under the principle that domestic investment and foreign investment
shall be treated equally.
The currently effective negative list is the
Special Administrative Measures (Negative List) for the Access of Foreign Investment (2021 Version), or the 2021 Negative List, which
was published by the Ministry of Commerce (“MOFCOM”) and National Development and Reform Commission (“NDRC”)
on December 27, 2021 and became effective on January 1, 2022. In addition, in December 2020, the MOFCOM and the NDRC also jointly promulgated
the Encouraged Foreign Investment Industry Catalogue (2020), which became effective in January 2021. Industries that are not listed in
the 2021 Negative List are permitted areas for foreign investments and are generally open to foreign investment unless specifically restricted
by other PRC regulations. Some restricted industries are limited to equity or contractual joint ventures, while in some cases Chinese
partners are required to hold majority interests in such joint ventures. In addition, projects in the restricted category may be subject
to higher-level government approval requirements. Foreign investors are not allowed to invest in industries in the prohibited category.
Haoxi Beijing is an online marketing solution
provider in China with an advertiser client base mainly in the healthcare industry, which is not a prohibited or restricted industry
in the 2021 Negative List that is currently effective as of the date of this prospectus. However, it is uncertain whether the online
marketing industry, in which Haoxi Beijing operates, will be subject to the foreign investment restrictions or prohibitions set forth
in any “negative list” to be issued in the future. There are uncertainties as to how the PRC Foreign Investment Law would
be further interpreted and implemented. We cannot assure you that the interpretation and implementation of the PRC Foreign Investment
Law made by the relevant governmental authorities in the future will not materially impact our corporate governance and business operations
in any aspect.
The PRC government exerts substantial influence
over the manner in which we conduct our business activities. The PRC government may also intervene or influence our operations and this
offering at any time, which could result in a material change in our operations and our Class A Ordinary Shares could decline in value
or become worthless.
As advised by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law Firm,
except for the filing procedures with the CSRC and the reporting of relevant information according to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures,
we are currently not required to obtain any other approval from any other Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, as of the date
of this prospectus. However, if our Company or any of our PRC subsidiaries are required to obtain any other approvals in the future and
are denied permission from Chinese authorities to list on U.S. exchanges, we may not be able to continue listing on U.S. exchanges, or
continue to offer securities to investors, and it may materially affect the interest of the investors and cause significantly depreciation
of our price of Class A Ordinary Shares.
The Chinese government has exercised and continues
to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. Our ability
to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, environmental regulations,
land use rights, property and other matters. The central or local governments of these jurisdictions may impose new, stricter regulations
or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance
with such regulations or interpretations. Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support
recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic
policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof, and could require us to divest
ourselves of any interest we then hold in our operations in China.
For example, the Chinese cybersecurity regulator
announced on July 2, 2021, that it had begun an investigation of Didi Global Inc. (NYSE: DIDI) and two days later ordered that the
company’s app be removed from smartphone app stores. Similarly, the operating entity’s business segments may be subject to
various government and regulatory interference in the regions in which it operates. It could be subject to regulation by various political
and regulatory entities, including various local and municipal agencies and government sub-divisions. The operating entity may incur
increased costs to comply with existing and newly adopted laws and regulations or penalties for any failure to comply.
Furthermore, it is uncertain when and whether
we will be required to obtain any other permission from the PRC government to list on U.S. exchanges, and even when such permission is
obtained, whether it will be later denied or rescinded. As of the date of this prospectus, except for the filing procedures with the
CSRC and the reporting of relevant information according to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, we believe we are currently not required
to obtain any other permission from any of the PRC national or local government regulatory entities to list on a U.S. exchange, and have
not received any denial to list on the U.S. exchange. However, the operating entity’s operations could be adversely affected, directly
or indirectly, by existing or future laws and regulations relating to its business or industry. Recent statements by the Chinese government
indicate an intent, and the PRC government may take actions, to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas
and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, could, if implemented, significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer
or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of our securities to significantly decline or become worthless.
The CSRC has promulgated Overseas Listing
Trial Measures on February 17, 2023. Our offering will be determined to be an indirect overseas offering and is, therefore, subject to
the CSRC filing procedures, which could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer our Class
A Ordinary Shares to investors and could cause the value of our Class A Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or become worthless.
On February 17, 2023, the CSRC, released the
Overseas Listing Trial Measures, which came into effect on March 31, 2023. According to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, Chinese
domestic companies that seek to offer and list securities in overseas markets, either in direct or indirect means, are required to fulfill
the filing procedures with the CSRC and report relevant information. If a domestic company fails to complete the filing procedures or
conceals any material fact or falsifies any major content in its filing documents, such domestic company may be subject to administrative
penalties, such as order to rectify, warnings, fines, and its controlling shareholders, actual controllers, the person directly in charge
and other directly liable persons may also be subject to administrative penalties, such as warnings and fines. If the issuer meets both
of the following conditions, the overseas offering and listing shall be determined as an indirect overseas offering and listing by a
domestic company: (i) any of the total assets, net assets, revenues or profits of the domestic operating entities of the issuer in the
most recent accounting year accounts for more than 50% of the corresponding figure in the issuer’s audited CFS for the same period;
(ii) its major operational activities are carried out in China or its main places of business are located in China or the senior managers
in charge of operation and management of the issuer are mostly Chinese citizens or are domiciled in China. Where a domestic company seeks
to indirectly offer and list securities in an overseas market, the issuer shall designate a major domestic operating entity responsible
for all filing procedures with the CSRC. The required filing scope is not limited to the initial public offering, but also includes any
subsequent overseas securities offering, single or multiple acquisition(s), share swap, transfer of shares or other means to seek an
overseas direct or indirect listing and a secondary listing or dual major listing of issuers already listed overseas. Subsequent securities
offerings of an issuer in the same overseas market where it has previously offered and listed securities shall be filed with the CSRC
within 3 working days after the offering is completed.
As advised by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law Firm,
since the operating entity accounted for more than 50% of our consolidated revenues, profit, total assets or net assets for the six months
as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the key components of our operations are carried
out in China, this offering is considered an indirect offering by China-based companies, and we are, therefore, subject to the Overseas
Listing Trial Measures for filing procedures with the CSRC and shall file with the CSRC within three working days after the completion
of this offering.
In addition, an overseas offering and listing
is prohibited under any of the following circumstances: (1) if the intended securities offering and listing is specifically prohibited
by national laws and regulations and relevant provisions; (2) if the intended securities offering and listing may constitute a threat
to or endangers national security as reviewed and determined by competent authorities under the State Council in accordance with law;
(3) if, in the past three years, the domestic enterprise or its controlling shareholders or actual controllers have committed corruption,
bribery, embezzlement, misappropriation of property, or other criminal offenses disruptive to the order of the socialist market economy;
(4) the domestic companies are currently under judicial investigation for suspicion of criminal offenses, or are under investigation
for suspicion of major violations, and no conclusion has yet been made thereof; (5) if there are material ownership disputes over
the equity held by the domestic company’s controlling shareholder or by other shareholders that are controlled by the controlling
shareholder and/or actual controller. Since these statements and regulatory actions by the PRC government are newly published and there
exists uncertainty with respect to their requirements and implementation, it is highly uncertain what the potential impact such modified
or new laws and regulations will have on our or the PRC operating entities’ daily business operation, the ability to accept foreign
investments and listing on U.S. exchanges. We cannot assure you that we will be able to fully comply with such rules, to conduct this
offering, to maintain the listing status of our securities, or to conduct any overseas securities offerings in the future.
The Overseas Listing Trial Measures, will subject
us to additional compliance requirements in the future, and although we received confirmation of the completion of the filing process
for this offering, we cannot assure you that we will be able to get the clearance of filing procedures under the Overseas Listing Trial
Measures in any future subsequent offerings on a timely basis, or at all. Any failure by us to fully comply with new regulatory requirements
may significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer our Class A Ordinary Shares, cause significant
disruption to our business operations, and severely damage our reputation, which would materially and adversely affect our financial
condition and results of operations and cause our Class A Ordinary Shares to significantly decline in value or become worthless.
You may experience difficulties in effecting
service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing actions in China against us or our management named in the prospectus
based on foreign laws. It may also be difficult for you or overseas regulators to conduct investigations or collect evidence within China.
We are an exempted company incorporated under
the laws of the Cayman Islands, we conduct substantially all of our operations in China, and substantially all of our assets are located
in China. In addition, all of our senior executive officers reside within China and are PRC nationals. As a result, it may be difficult
for the shareholders outside of China, including U.S. shareholders, to effect service of process upon us or those persons inside China.
In addition, China does not have treaties providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments of courts with the Cayman
Islands, the United States and many other countries and regions. Therefore, recognition and enforcement in China of judgments of a court
in any of these non-PRC jurisdictions in relation to any matter not subject to a binding arbitration provision may be difficult or impossible.
Shareholder claims that are common in the United
States, including securities law class actions and fraud claims, generally are difficult to pursue as a matter of law or practicality
in China. For example, in China, there are significant legal and other obstacles to obtaining information needed for shareholder investigations
or litigation outside China or otherwise with respect to foreign entities. Although the local authorities in China may establish a regulatory
cooperation mechanism with the securities regulatory authorities of another country or region to implement cross-border supervision and
administration, such regulatory cooperation with the securities regulatory authorities in the Unities States have not been efficient
in the absence of mutual and practical cooperation mechanism. According to Article 177 of the PRC Securities Law, which took effect
in March 2020, no overseas securities regulator is allowed to directly conduct investigation or evidence collection activities within
the territory of the PRC. Accordingly, without the consent of competent PRC securities regulators and relevant authorities, no organization
or individual may provide the documents and materials relating to securities business activities to overseas parties. While neither detailed
interpretations of, nor implementing rules under, Article 177 have been promulgated, the inability for an overseas securities regulator
to directly conduct investigation or evidence collection activities within China may further increase difficulties faced by you in protecting
your interests.
Any requirement to obtain prior approval
under the M&A Rules and/or any other regulations promulgated by relevant PRC regulatory agencies in the future could limit or
delay this offering and failure to obtain any such approvals, if required, could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating
results and reputation, as well as the trading price of our Class A Ordinary Shares, and could also create uncertainties for this offering
and affect our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors outside China.
On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies,
including MOFCOM, the State-Owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (the “SASAC”), the State Administration
of Taxation (the “SAT”), the State Administration of Industry and Commerce (the “SAIC”), the CSRC, and the State
Administration of Foreign Exchange (the “SAFE”), jointly adopted the M&A Rules, which came into effect on September 8,
2006 and were amended on June 22, 2009. The M&A Rules include, among other things, provisions that purport to require that
an offshore special purpose vehicle formed for the purpose of an overseas listing of securities in a PRC company obtain the approval
of the CSRC prior to the listing and trading of such special purpose vehicle’s securities on an overseas stock exchange. On September 21,
2006, the CSRC published on its official website procedures regarding its approval of overseas listings by special purpose vehicles.
However, substantial uncertainty remains regarding the scope and applicability of the M&A Rules to offshore special purpose
vehicles.
While the application of the M&A Rules remains
unclear, we believe, based on the advice of our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law Firm, that the CSRC approval is not required in the context
of this offering, because (i) the CSRC currently has not issued any definitive rule or interpretation concerning whether offerings
under the prospectus are subject to the M&A Rules; and (ii) we established Haoxi Beijing by means of direct investment rather
than by merger or requisition of the equity or assets of a “PRC domestic company” as such term is defined under the M&A
Rules. However, uncertainties still exist as to how the M&A Rules will be interpreted and implemented, and the opinion of our
PRC counsel is subject to any new laws, rules, and regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations in any form relating to
the M&A Rules. We cannot assure you that the relevant PRC government agencies, including the CSRC, would reach the same conclusion
as our PRC counsel. If the CSRC or other PRC regulatory body subsequently determines that we need to obtain the CSRC’s approval
for this offering or if the CSRC or any other PRC government authorities promulgates any interpretation or implements rules before
our listing that would require us to obtain CSRC or other governmental approvals for this offering, we may face adverse actions or sanctions
by the CSRC or other PRC regulatory agencies. In any such event, these regulatory agencies may impose fines and penalties on our operations
in China, limit our operating privileges in China, delay or restrict the repatriation of the proceeds from this offering into the PRC
or take other actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, reputation
and prospects, as well as our ability to complete this offering. The CSRC or other PRC regulatory agencies may also take actions requiring
us, or making it advisable for us, to halt this offering before settlement and delivery of the Class A Ordinary Shares offered by this
prospectus. Consequently, if you engage in market trading or other activities in anticipation of and prior to settlement and delivery,
you do so at the risk that such settlement and delivery may not occur. See “Regulation—M&A Rules and Overseas Listings.”
In addition, the security review rules issued
by the MOFCOM that took effect in September 2011 specify that mergers and acquisitions by foreign investors that raise “national
defense and security” concerns and mergers and acquisitions through which foreign investors may acquire de facto control over domestic
enterprises that raise “national security” concerns are subject to strict review by the MOFCOM, and the rules prohibit
any activities attempting to bypass a security review, including by structuring the transaction through a proxy or contractual control
arrangement. Furthermore, according to the security review, foreign investments that would result in acquiring the actual control of
assets in certain key sectors, such as critical agricultural products, energy and resources, equipment manufacturing, infrastructure,
transport, cultural products and services, information technology, Internet products and services, financial services and technology
sectors, are required to obtain approval from designated governmental authorities in advance.
We are not operating in an industry that prohibits
or limits foreign investment. As a result, as advised by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law Firm, other than those requisite for a domestic
company in China to engage in the businesses similar to ours, we are not required to obtain any permission from Chinese authorities including
the CSRC, CAC or any other governmental agency that is required to approve our operations. However, if we do not receive or maintain
the approvals, or we inadvertently conclude that such approvals are not required, or applicable laws, regulations, or interpretations
change such that we are required to obtain approval in the future, we may be subject to investigations by competent regulators, fines
or penalties, ordered to suspend our relevant operations and rectify any non-compliance, prohibited from engaging in relevant business
or conducting any offering, and these risks could result in a material adverse change in our operations, significantly limit or completely
hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors, or cause such securities to significantly decline in value
or become worthless.
As of the date of this prospectus, except business
license which all companies incorporated in China should obtain, we do not need any other license, permission or approval to engage in
the businesses currently conducted in China. The WFOE and Haoxi Beijing have both obtained a business license issued by the SAMR’s
local counterpart of the city in which they are incorporated. As advised by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law Firm, we are subject to the
Overseas Listing Trial Measures for filing procedures with the CSRC. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in
China—The CSRC has promulgated Overseas Listing Trial Measures on February 17, 2023. Our offering will be determined to be an indirect
overseas offering and is, therefore, subject to the CSRC filing procedures, which could significantly limit or completely hinder our
ability to offer or continue to offer our Class A Ordinary Shares to investors and could cause the value of our Class A Ordinary Shares
to significantly decline or become worthless.” The PRC government may take actions to exert more oversight and control over offerings
by China-based issuers conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in such companies, which could significantly limit or completely
hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors outside China and cause the value of our securities to significantly
decline or become worthless.
In the future, we may grow our business by acquiring
businesses. Complying with the requirements of the above-mentioned regulations and other relevant rules to complete such transactions,
if required, could require management’s time, and any required approval processes, including obtaining approval from the MOFCOM
or its local counterparts may delay or limit our ability to complete such transactions. It is unclear whether our business would be deemed
to be in an industry that raises “national defense and security” or “national security” concerns. However, the
MOFCOM or other government agencies may publish explanations in the future determining that our business is in an industry subject to
the security review, in which case our future acquisitions in the PRC, may be closely scrutinized or prohibited. Our ability to expand
our business or maintain or expand our market share through future acquisitions would as such be materially and adversely affected. Furthermore,
according to the M&A Rules, if a PRC entity or individual plans to merge or acquire its related PRC entity through an overseas company
legitimately incorporated or controlled by such entity or individual, such a merger and acquisition will be subject to examination and
approval by the MOFCOM. There is a possibility that the PRC regulators may promulgate new rules or explanations requiring that we
obtain the approval of the MOFCOM or other PRC governmental authorities for our completed or ongoing mergers and acquisitions. There
is no assurance that, if we plan to make an acquisition, we can obtain such approval from the MOFCOM or any other relevant PRC governmental
authorities for our mergers and acquisitions, and if we fail to obtain those approvals, we may be required to suspend our acquisition
and be subject to penalties. Any uncertainties regarding such approval requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations and corporate structure.
In addition, on July 6, 2021, the relevant
PRC government authorities made public the Illegal Securities Opinions. These opinions emphasized the need to strengthen the administration
over illegal securities activities and the supervision on overseas listings by China-based companies and proposed to take effective measures,
such as promoting the construction of relevant regulatory systems to address the risks and incidents faced by China-based overseas-listed
companies. Pursuant to the Illegal Securities Opinions, Chinese regulators are required to accelerate rulemaking related to the overseas
issuance and listing of securities, and update the existing laws and regulations related to data security, cross-border data flow, and
management of confidential information. Numerous regulations, guidelines and other measures are expected to be adopted under the umbrella
of or in addition to the PRC Cybersecurity Law and Data Security Law. As of the date of this prospectus, no official guidance or related
implementation rules have been issued yet and the interpretation of these opinions remains unclear at this stage.
On July 10, 2021, the CAC issued the Measures
for Cybersecurity Review (Revision Draft for Comments) for public comments, which proposes to authorize the relevant government authorities
to conduct cybersecurity review on a range of activities that affect or may affect national security, including listings in foreign countries
by companies that possess the personal data of more than one million users.
On November 14, 2021, the CAC issued the
Regulations on Network Data Security (draft for public comments), which set forth cyber data security compliance requirements in greater
detail.
On December 28, 2021, the Measures for Cybersecurity
Review (2021 version) was promulgated and took effect on February 15, 2022, which iterates that any “online platform operators”
controlling personal information of more than one million users which seeks to list in a foreign stock exchange should also be subject
to cybersecurity review. As advised by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law Firm, we are not among the CIIOs or “online platform operators”
as mentioned above. The operating entity is an online marketing and online marketing service provider and is not engaged in data activities
as defined under the Personal Information Protection Law, which includes, without limitation, collection, storage, use, processing, transmission,
provision, publication and deletion of data. The operating entity is not an operator of any “critical information infrastructure”
as defined under the PRC Cybersecurity Law and the Security Protection Measures on Critical Information Infrastructure. However, the
Measures for Cybersecurity Review were recently adopted and the Network Internet Data Protection Draft Regulations (draft for comments)
are in the process of being formulated and the Illegal Securities Opinions remain unclear on how they will be interpreted, amended and
implemented by the relevant PRC governmental authorities.
There remain uncertainties as to when the final
measures will be issued and take effect, how they will be enacted, interpreted or implemented, and whether they will affect us and our
subsidiaries. If we inadvertently conclude that the Measures for Cybersecurity Review do not apply to us or our subsidiaries, or applicable
laws, regulations, or interpretations change and it is determined in the future that the Measures for Cybersecurity Review become applicable
to us or our subsidiaries, we may be subject to review when conducting data processing activities, and may face challenges in addressing
its requirements and make necessary changes to our internal policies and practices. We may incur substantial costs in complying with
the Measures for Cybersecurity Review, which could result in material adverse changes in our business operations and financial position.
If we are not able to fully comply with the Measures for Cybersecurity Review, our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to
investors may be significantly limited or completely hindered, and our securities may significantly decline in value or become worthless.
On February 17, 2023, the CSRC released the Overseas
Listing Trial Measures, which came into effect on March 31, 2023. On February 24, 2023, the CSRC revised the Provision on Confidentiality
issued in 2009. The revised Provision on Confidentiality came into effect on March 31, 2023. As advised by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro
Law Firm, since the operating entity accounted for more than 50% of our consolidated revenues, profit, total assets or net assets for
the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the key components of our operations
are carried out in China, this offering is considered an indirect offering by China-based companies, and we are, therefore, subject to
the Overseas Listing Trial Measures for filing procedures with the CSRC. We will submit our filing application to the CSRC within three
working days after the completion of this offering.
We have been closely monitoring regulatory developments
in China regarding any necessary approvals from the CSRC or any other PRC governmental authorities required for overseas listings, including
this offering. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not received any inquiry, notice, warning, sanctions or regulatory objection
to this offering from the CSRC or other PRC governmental authorities. However, there remains significant uncertainty as to the enactment,
interpretation and implementation of regulatory requirements related to overseas securities offerings and other capital markets activities,
including, but not limited to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures. Although we endeavor to comply with all the applicable laws and regulations,
if (i) the operating entity does not receive or maintain applicable permissions or approvals for our operation and to offer the securities
being registered to investors, or (ii) we inadvertently conclude that such permissions or approvals are not required, or applicable laws,
regulations, or interpretations change and the operating entity is required to obtain permissions or approvals in the future, the operating
entity’s business operation may be materially affected. There can be no assurance that we or the operating entity can obtain all
requisite approvals without material disruption to the operating entity’s business. Therefore, any failure to obtain all requisite
approvals may significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and could cause
the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business
in China—The CSRC has promulgated Overseas Listing Trial Measures on February 17, 2023. Our offering will be determined to be an
indirect overseas offering and is, therefore, subject to the CSRC filing procedures, which could significantly limit or completely hinder
our ability to offer or continue to offer our Class A Ordinary Shares to investors and could cause the value of our Class A Ordinary
Shares to significantly decline or become worthless.”
As advised by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law Firm,
except for the filing procedures with the CSRC and the reporting of relevant information according to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures,
we are not required to obtain any other permission from any other PRC governmental authorities to offer securities to foreign investors,
as of the date of this prospectus. We have been closely monitoring regulatory developments in China regarding any necessary approvals
from the CSRC or other PRC governmental authorities required for overseas listings, including this offering and offering securities to
foreign investors. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not received any inquiry, notice, warning, sanctions or regulatory objection
to this offering from the CSRC or other PRC governmental authorities. However, there remains significant uncertainty as to the enactment,
interpretation and implementation of regulatory requirements related to overseas securities offerings and other capital markets activities.
If it is determined in the future that the approval of the CAC or any other regulatory authority is required for this offering, we may
face sanctions by the CAC or other PRC regulatory agencies. These regulatory agencies may impose fines and penalties on our operations
in China, limit our ability to pay dividends outside of China, limit our operations in China, delay or restrict the repatriation of the
proceeds from this offering into China or take other actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition,
results of operations and prospects, as well as the trading price of our securities. The CSRC, the CAC or other PRC regulatory agencies
also may take actions requiring us, or making it advisable for us, to halt this offering before settlement and delivery of our Class
A Ordinary Shares. Consequently, if you engage in market trading or other activities in anticipation of and prior to settlement and delivery,
you do so at the risk that settlement and delivery may not occur. In addition, if the CSRC, the CAC or other regulatory PRC agencies
later promulgate new rules requiring that we obtain their approvals for this offering, we may be unable to obtain a waiver of such
approval requirements, if and when procedures are established to obtain such a waiver. Any uncertainties and/or negative publicity regarding
such an approval requirement could have a material adverse effect on the trading price of our securities.
PRC regulations regarding acquisitions
impose significant regulatory approval and review requirements, which could make it more difficult for us to pursue growth through acquisitions.
Under the PRC Anti-Monopoly Law, companies undertaking
acquisitions relating to businesses in China must notify the SAMR, in advance of any transaction where the parties’ revenues in
the China market exceed certain thresholds and the buyer would obtain control of, or decisive influence over, the target, while under
the M&A Rules, the approval of the MOFCOM must be obtained in circumstances where overseas companies established or controlled by
PRC enterprises or residents acquire domestic companies affiliated with such PRC enterprises or residents. Applicable PRC laws, rules and
regulations also require certain merger and acquisition transactions to be subject to security review. As a result, the transactions,
if any, we may undertake could be subject to the SAMR merger review. Complying with the requirements of the relevant regulations to complete
such transactions could be time-consuming, and any required approval processes, including approval from the SAMR, may delay or inhibit
our ability to complete such transactions, which could affect our ability to expand our business or maintain our market share. If the
practice of the SAMR and the MOFCOM remains unchanged, our ability to carry out our acquisition strategy may be materially and adversely
affected and there may be significant uncertainty as to whether we will be able to complete large acquisitions in the future in a timely
manner or at all.
Failure to comply with PRC regulations
relating to investments in offshore companies by PRC residents may subject our PRC-resident beneficial owners or Haoxi Beijing to liability
or penalties, limit our ability to inject capital into Haoxi Beijing or limit Haoxi Beijing’s ability to increase their registered
capital or distribute profits.
The SAFE promulgated the Circular on Relevant
Issues Concerning Foreign Exchange Control on Domestic Residents’ Offshore Investment and Financing and Roundtrip Investment through
Special Purpose Vehicles, or the SAFE Circular 37, on July 4, 2014, which replaced the former circular commonly known as the “SAFE
Circular 75” promulgated by the SAFE on October 21, 2005. The SAFE Circular 37 requires PRC residents to register with local
branches of the SAFE in connection with their direct establishment or indirect control of an offshore entity, for the purpose of overseas
investment and financing, with such PRC residents’ legally owned assets or equity interests in domestic enterprises or offshore
assets or interests, referred to in the SAFE Circular 37 as a “special purpose vehicle.” The SAFE Circular 37 further requires
amendment to the registration in the event of any significant changes with respect to the special purpose vehicle, such as increase or
decrease of capital contributed by PRC individuals, share transfer or exchange, merger, division or other material event. In the event
that a PRC shareholder holding interests in a special purpose vehicle fails to fulfill the required the SAFE registration, the PRC subsidiaries
of that special purpose vehicle may be prohibited from making profit distributions to the offshore parent and from carrying out subsequent
cross-border foreign exchange activities, and the special purpose vehicle may be restricted in its ability to contribute additional capital
into its PRC subsidiary. Moreover, failure to comply with the various registration requirements with the SAFE described above could result
in liability under PRC law for evasion of foreign exchange controls.
We have notified substantial beneficial owners
of Class A Ordinary Shares who we know are PRC residents of their filing obligation, and all substantial beneficial owners have completed
the necessary registration with the local SAFE branch or qualified banks as required by the SAFE Circular 37. However, we may not at
all times be aware of the identities of all of our beneficial owners who are PRC residents. We do not have control over our beneficial
owners and cannot assure you that all of our PRC-resident beneficial owners will comply with the SAFE Circular 37 and subsequent implementation
rules. The failure of our beneficial owners who are PRC residents to register or amend their SAFE registrations in a timely manner pursuant
to the SAFE Circular 37 and subsequent implementation rules, or the failure of future beneficial owners of our company who are PRC residents
to comply with the registration procedures set forth in the SAFE Circular 37 and subsequent implementation rules, may subject such beneficial
owners or Haoxi Beijing to fines and legal sanctions. Furthermore, since it is unclear how the SAFE Circular 37, and any future regulation
concerning offshore or cross-border transactions, will be interpreted, amended and implemented by the relevant PRC government authorities,
we cannot predict how these regulations will affect our business operations or future strategies. Failure to register or comply with
relevant requirements may also limit our ability to contribute additional capital to Haoxi Beijing and limit Haoxi Beijing’s ability
to distribute dividends to our company. These risks may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results
of operations.
Any failure to comply with PRC regulations
regarding the registration requirements for employee share incentive plans may subject the PRC plan participants or us to fines and other
legal or administrative sanctions.
In February 2012, the SAFE promulgated the
Notices on Issues Concerning the Foreign Exchange Administration for Domestic Individuals Participating in Stock Incentive Plans of Overseas
Publicly-Listed Companies, replacing earlier rules promulgated in March 2007. Pursuant to these rules, PRC citizens and non-PRC
citizens who reside in China for a continuous period of not less than one year who participate in any share incentive plan of an overseas
publicly listed company, subject to a few exceptions, are required to register with the SAFE through a domestic qualified agent, which
could be the PRC subsidiary of such overseas listed company, and complete certain other procedures. In addition, an overseas entrusted
institution must be retained to handle matters in connection with the exercise or sale of share options and the purchase or sale of shares
and interests. In the event we adopt an equity incentive plan, our executive officers and other employees who are PRC citizens or who
have resided in the PRC for a continuous period of not less than one year and who are granted options or other awards under the equity
incentive plan will be subject to these regulations when our company becomes an overseas listed company upon the completion of this offering.
Failure to complete the SAFE registrations may subject them to fines and legal sanctions and may also limit our ability to contribute
additional capital into Haoxi Beijing and limit Haoxi Beijing’s ability to distribute dividends to us. We also face regulatory
uncertainties that could restrict our ability to adopt additional incentive plans for our directors, executive officers and employees
under PRC law.
PRC regulations of loans to, and direct
investment in, PRC entities by offshore holding companies, and governmental control of currency conversion, may limit our ability to
use the proceeds of this offering to make loans or additional capital contributions to Haoxi Beijing, which could materially and adversely
affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.
We are an offshore holding company conducting
our operations in China through Haoxi Beijing. We may make loans to Haoxi Beijing that are subject to the approval from governmental
authorities and limitations on borrowed amounts, or we may make additional capital contributions to Haoxi Beijing.
Any loans to a wholly foreign-owned enterprise
in China, which is treated as an FIE under PRC law, are subject to PRC regulations and foreign exchange loan registrations. For example,
loans by us to our WFOE in China to finance its activities cannot exceed statutory limits and must be registered with the local counterparts
of the SAFE. In addition, a foreign invested enterprise shall use its capital pursuant to the principle of authenticity and self-use
within its business scope. The capital of a foreign invested enterprise shall not be used for the following purposes: (i) directly
or indirectly used for payment beyond the business scope of the enterprise or the payment prohibited by relevant laws and regulations;
(ii) directly or indirectly used for investment in securities investments other than banks’ principal-secured products unless
otherwise provided by relevant laws and regulations; (iii) the granting of loans to non-affiliated enterprises, except where it
is expressly permitted in the business license; and (iv) paying the expenses related to the purchase of real estate that is not
for self-use (except for the foreign-invested real estate enterprises).
The SAFE promulgated the Notice of the State
Administration of Foreign Exchange on Reforming the Administration of Foreign Exchange Settlement of Capital of Foreign-invested Enterprises,
or the SAFE Circular 19, effective June 2015, in replacement of the Circular on the Relevant Operating Issues Concerning the Improvement
of the Administration of the Payment and Settlement of Foreign Currency Capital of Foreign-Invested Enterprises, the Notice from the
State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Relevant Issues Concerning Strengthening the Administration of Foreign Exchange Businesses,
and the Circular on Further Clarification and Regulation of the Issues Concerning the Administration of Certain Capital Account Foreign
Exchange Businesses. Although the SAFE Circular 19 allows RMB capital converted from foreign currency-denominated registered capital
of an FIE to be used for equity investments within China, it also reiterates the principle that RMB converted from the foreign currency-denominated
capital of a foreign-invested company may not be directly or indirectly used for purposes beyond its business scope. Thus, it is unclear
whether the SAFE will permit such capital to be used for equity investments in China in actual practice. The SAFE promulgated the Notice
of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Reforming and Standardizing the Foreign Exchange Settlement Management Policy of Capital
Account, or the SAFE Circular 16, effective on June 9, 2016, which reiterates some of the rules set forth in the SAFE Circular
19, but changes the prohibition against using RMB capital converted from foreign currency-denominated registered capital of a foreign-invested
company to issue RMB entrusted loans to a prohibition against using such capital to issue loans to non-associated enterprises. Violations
of the SAFE Circular 19 and the SAFE Circular 16 could result in administrative penalties. The SAFE Circular 19 and the SAFE Circular
16 may significantly limit our ability to transfer any foreign currency we hold, including the net proceeds from this offering, to our
WFOE, which may adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business in China.
On October 23, 2019, the SAFE issued the
Circular on Further Promoting Cross-border Trade and Investment Facilitation, or the SAFE Circular 28, which took effect on the same
day. The SAFE Circular 28, subject to certain conditions, allows FIEs whose business scope does not include investment, or non-investment
foreign-invested enterprises, to use their capital funds to make equity investments in China. Since the SAFE Circular 28 was issued only
recently, its interpretation and implementation in practice are still subject to substantial uncertainties.
In light of the various requirements imposed
by PRC regulations on loans to and direct investment in PRC entities by offshore holding companies, and the fact that the PRC government
may at its discretion restrict access to foreign currencies for current account transactions in the future, we cannot assure you that
we will be able to complete the necessary government registrations or obtain the necessary government approvals on a timely basis, if
at all, with respect to future loans to Haoxi Beijing in or future capital contributions by us to our WFOE in China. As a result, uncertainties
exist as to our ability to provide prompt financial support to Haoxi Beijing when needed. If we fail to complete such registrations or
obtain such approvals, our ability to use the proceeds we expect to receive from this offering and to capitalize or otherwise fund our
PRC operations may be negatively affected, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand
our business.
We may need dividends and other distributions
on equity paid by Haoxi Beijing to satisfy our liquidity requirements and any limitation on the ability of Haoxi Beijing to transfer
cash out of China and/or make remittances to pay dividends to us could limit our ability to access cash generated by the operations of
Haoxi Beijing.
We are a holding company incorporated in the
Cayman Islands. We may need dividends and other distributions of equity paid by Haoxi Beijing to satisfy our liquidity requirements,
including the funds necessary to pay dividends and other cash distributions to our shareholders, fund inter-company loans, service any
debt we may incur outside of China and pay our expenses. The laws, rules and regulations applicable to Haoxi Beijing permit payments
of dividends only out of their retained earnings, if any, determined in accordance with applicable accounting standards and regulations.
Amounts restricted include paid-in capital and
statutory reserves of Haoxi Beijing as determined pursuant to PRC generally accepted accounting principles. Under PRC laws, rules and
regulations, each of our subsidiaries incorporated in China is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each year,
after making up for previous years’ accumulated losses, if any, to fund certain statutory reserves, until the aggregate amount
of such fund reaches 50% of its registered capital. As a result of these laws, rules and regulations, our subsidiaries incorporated
in China are restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their respective net assets to their shareholders as dividends. As
of June 30, 2023 and 2022, these restricted assets totaled $27,778 and $27,778, respectively, due to paid-in capital of Haoxi Beijing.
However, there can be no assurance that the PRC government will not intervene or impose restrictions on our ability to transfer or distribute
cash within our organization or to foreign investors, which could result in an inability or prohibition on making transfers or distributions
outside of China, and may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Limitations on the ability of Haoxi Beijing to
make remittances to pay dividends to us could limit our ability to access cash generated by the operations of those entities, including
to make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our businesses, pay dividends to our shareholders or otherwise fund and
conduct our business.
We may be treated as a resident enterprise
for PRC tax purposes under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, and we may therefore be subject to PRC income tax on our global income.
Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law and its
implementing rules, both of which came into effect on January 1, 2008 and were last amended on December 29, 2018, enterprises
established under the laws of jurisdictions outside of China with “de facto management bodies” located in China may be considered
PRC tax resident enterprises for tax purposes and may be subject to the PRC enterprise income tax at the rate of 25% on their global
income. “De facto management body” refers to a managing body that exercises substantive and overall management and control
over the production and business, personnel, accounting books and assets of an enterprise. The SAT issued the Notice Regarding the Determination
of Chinese-Controlled Offshore-Incorporated Enterprises as PRC Tax Resident Enterprises on the Basis of De Facto Management Bodies, or
the SAT Circular 82, on April 22, 2009. SAT Circular 82 provides certain specific criteria for determining whether the “de
facto management body” of a Chinese-controlled offshore-incorporated enterprise is located in China. Although SAT Circular 82 only
applies to offshore enterprises controlled by PRC enterprises, not those controlled by individuals or foreign enterprises, the determining
criteria set forth in SAT Circular 82 may reflect the SAT’s general position on how the “de facto management body”
test should be applied in determining the tax resident status of offshore enterprises, regardless of whether they are controlled by PRC
enterprises. If we were to be considered a PRC resident enterprise, we would be subject to PRC enterprise income tax at the rate of 25%
on our global income, and our profitability and cash flow may be materially reduced as a result of our global income being taxed under
the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law. We believe that none of our entities outside of China is a PRC resident enterprise for PRC tax purposes.
However, the tax resident status of an enterprise is subject to determination by the PRC tax authorities and uncertainties remain with
respect to the interpretation of the term “de facto management body.”
Dividends payable to our foreign investors
and gains on the sale of our Class A Ordinary Shares by our foreign investors may be subject to PRC tax.
Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law and its
implementation regulations issued by the State Council, a 10% PRC withholding tax is applicable to dividends payable to investors that
are non-resident enterprises, which do not have an establishment or place of business in the PRC or which have such establishment or
place of business but the dividends are not effectively connected with such establishment or place of business, to the extent such dividends
are derived from sources within the PRC. Any gain realized on the transfer of Class A Ordinary Shares by such investors is also subject
to PRC tax at a current rate of 10% which in the case of dividends will be withheld at the source if such gain is regarded as income
derived from sources within the PRC. If we are deemed a PRC resident enterprise, dividends paid on our Class A Ordinary Shares, and any
gain realized from the transfer of our Class A Ordinary Shares, may be treated as income derived from sources within the PRC and may
as a result be subject to PRC taxation. See “Regulation—Regulations Related to Taxation.” Furthermore, if we are deemed
a PRC resident enterprise, dividends payable to individual investors who are non-PRC residents and any gain realized on the transfer
of Class A Ordinary Shares by such investors may be subject to PRC tax at a current rate of 20%. Any PRC tax liability may be reduced
under applicable tax treaties. However, it is unclear whether holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares would be able to claim the benefit
of income tax treaties or agreements entered into between China and other countries or areas if we are considered a PRC resident enterprise.
If dividends payable to our non-PRC investors, or gains from the transfer of our Class A Ordinary Shares by such investors are subject
to PRC tax, the value of your investment in our Class A Ordinary Shares may decline significantly.
Pursuant to the Arrangement between the PRC and
the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and Tax Evasion on Income, or the Tax Arrangement, the
10% withholding tax rate may be lowered to 5% if a Hong Kong resident enterprise, as the beneficial owner, owns no less than 25% of a
PRC entity. In current practice, a Hong Kong entity must obtain a tax resident certificate from the Hong Kong tax authority to apply
for the 5% lower PRC withholding tax rate. Pursuant to the Circular of the State Administration of Taxation on the Issues concerning
the Application of the Dividend Clauses of Tax Agreements (“Circular 81”), a resident enterprise of the counter-party to
such Tax Arrangement should meet all of the following conditions, among others, in order to enjoy the reduced withholding tax under the
Tax Arrangement: (i) it must take the form of a company; (ii) it must directly own the required percentage of equity interests and voting
rights in such PRC resident enterprise; and (iii) it should directly own such percentage of capital in the PRC resident enterprise anytime
in the 12 consecutive months prior to receiving the dividends. Furthermore, the Administrative Measures for Non-Resident Enterprises
to Enjoy Treatments under Tax Treaties, or the Administrative Measures, which took effect in November 2015, requires that the non-resident
taxpayer shall determine whether it may enjoy the treatments under relevant tax treaties and file the tax return or withholding declaration
subject to further monitoring and oversight by the tax authorities. Accordingly, Haoxi HK may be able to enjoy the 5% withholding tax
rate for the dividends from WFOE, if the conditions prescribed under Circular 81 and other relevant tax rules and regulations are satisfied.
However, according to Circular 81, if the relevant tax authorities consider the related transactions or arrangements are for the primary
purpose of enjoying favorable tax treatment, the relevant tax authorities may adjust the favorable withholding tax in the future. See
“Material Income Tax Considerations—PRC Enterprise Taxation—Income Tax in PRC.”
We and our shareholders face uncertainties
with respect to indirect transfers of equity interests in PRC resident enterprises by their non-PRC holding companies.
On February 3, 2015, the SAT issued the
Announcement on Several Issues Concerning the Enterprise Income Tax on Indirect Transfer of Assets by Non-Resident Enterprises, or the
SAT Circular 7. The SAT Circular 7 extends its tax jurisdiction to transactions involving the transfer of taxable assets through offshore
transfer of a foreign intermediate holding company. In addition, the SAT Circular 7 has introduced safe harbors for internal group restructurings
and the purchase and sale of equity through a public securities market. The SAT Circular 7 also brings challenges to both foreign transferor
and transferee (or other person who is obligated to pay for the transfer) of taxable assets. On October 17, 2017, the SAT issued
the Announcement on Issues Relating to Withholding at Source of Income Tax of Non-resident Enterprises, or the SAT Circular 37, which
came into effect on December 1, 2017. The SAT Circular 37 further clarifies the practice and procedure of the withholding of non-resident
enterprise income tax.
Where a non-resident enterprise transfers taxable
assets indirectly by disposing of the equity interests of an overseas holding company, which is deemed an “Indirect Transfer”
pursuant to SAT Circular 7 and SAT Circular 37, the non-resident enterprise as either transferor or transferee, or the PRC entity that
directly owns the taxable assets, may report such Indirect Transfer to the relevant tax authority. Using a “substance over form”
principle, the PRC tax authority may disregard the existence of the overseas holding company if it lacks a reasonable commercial purpose
and was established for the purpose of reducing, avoiding or deferring PRC tax. As a result, gains derived from such Indirect Transfer
may be subject to PRC enterprise income tax, and the transferee or other person who is obligated to pay for the transfer is obligated
to withhold the applicable taxes, currently at a rate of 10% for the transfer of equity interests in a PRC resident enterprise. Both
the transferor and the transferee may be subject to penalties under PRC tax laws if the transferee fails to withhold the taxes and the
transferor fails to pay the taxes.
We face uncertainties as to the reporting and
other implications of certain past and future transactions where PRC taxable assets are involved, such as offshore restructuring, sale
of the shares in our offshore subsidiaries and investments. Our company may be subject to filing obligations or taxed if our company
is transferor in such transactions, and may be subject to withholding obligations if our company is transferee in such transactions,
under the SAT Circular 7 and/or the SAT Circular 37. For transfer of shares in our company that do not qualify for the public securities
market safe harbor by investors who are non-PRC resident enterprises, Haoxi Beijing may be requested to assist in the filing under the
SAT Circular 7 and/or the SAT Circular 37. As a result, we may be required to comply with the SAT Circular 7 and/or the SAT Circular
37 or to request the relevant transferors from whom we purchase taxable assets to comply with these circulars, or to establish that our
company should not be taxed under these circulars, which may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of
operations.
Restrictions on currency exchange may limit
our ability to utilize our revenue effectively.
All of our revenue is denominated in Renminbi.
The Renminbi is currently convertible under the “current account,” which includes dividends, trade and service-related foreign
exchange transactions, but not under the “capital account,” which includes foreign direct investment and loans, including
loans we may secure from our onshore subsidiaries. Currently, Haoxi Beijing may purchase foreign currency for settlement of “current
account transactions,” including payment of dividends to us, without the SAFE’s approval by complying with certain procedural
requirements. However, the relevant PRC governmental authorities may limit or eliminate our ability to purchase foreign currencies in
the future for current account transactions. Since we expect a significant portion of our future revenue will be denominated in Renminbi,
any existing and future restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to utilize revenue generated in Renminbi to fund our
business activities outside of the PRC and/or transfer cash out of China to pay dividends in foreign currencies to our shareholders.
Foreign exchange transactions under the capital account remain subject to limitations and require approvals from, or registration with,
the SAFE and other relevant PRC governmental authorities. This could affect our ability to obtain foreign currency through debt or equity
financing for our subsidiaries. In addition, there can be no assurance that the PRC government will not intervene or impose restrictions
on our ability to transfer or distribute cash within our organization or to foreign investors, which could result in an inability or
prohibition on making transfers or distributions outside of China and may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results
of operations.
Fluctuations in exchange rates could result
in foreign currency exchange losses to us and may reduce the value of, and amount in U.S. Dollars of dividends payable on, our shares
in foreign currency terms.
The value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar
and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in political and economic conditions and the foreign
exchange policies adopted by the PRC government. In August 2015, the People’s Bank of China, or PBOC, changed the way it calculates
the mid-point price of RMB against the U.S. dollar, requiring the market-makers who submit for reference rates to consider the previous
day’s closing spot rate, foreign-exchange demand and supply as well as changes in major currency rates. In 2017, the value of the
Renminbi appreciated by approximately 6.3% against the U.S. dollar; and in 2018, the Renminbi depreciated by approximately 5.7% against
the U.S. dollar. From the end of 2018 through the end of December 2020, the value of the Renminbi appreciated by approximately 5.10%
against the U.S. dollar. In 2021, RMB depreciated approximately 2.6% against the U.S. dollar. The exchange rate of RMB against US dollar
rose by 4.26% from 2021 to 2022, and 4.77% from 2022 to 2023.It is difficult to predict how market forces or PRC or U.S. government policies,
including any interest rate increases by the Federal Reserve, may impact the exchange rate between the RMB and the U.S. dollar in the
future. There remains significant international pressure on the PRC government to adopt a more flexible currency policy, including from
the U.S. government, which has threatened to label China as a “currency manipulator,” which could result in greater fluctuation
of the RMB against the U.S. dollar. However, the PRC government may still at its discretion restrict access to foreign currencies for
current account transactions in the future. Therefore, it is difficult to predict how market forces or government policies may impact
the exchange rate between the RMB and the U.S. dollar or other currencies in the future. In addition, the PBOC regularly intervenes in
the foreign exchange Company market to limit fluctuations in RMB exchange rates and achieve policy goals. If the exchange rate between
RMB and U.S. dollar fluctuates in unanticipated manners, our results of operations and financial condition, and the value of, and dividends
payable on, our shares in foreign currency terms may be adversely affected. We may not be able to pay dividends in foreign currencies
to our shareholders. Appreciation of RMB to U.S dollar will result in exchange loss, while depreciation of RMB to U.S dollar will result
in exchange gain.
Failure to make adequate contributions
to various employee benefit plans and withhold individual income tax on employees’ salaries as required by PRC regulations may
subject the operating entity to penalties.
Companies operating in China are required to
participate in various government-mandated employee benefit contribution plans, including certain social insurance, housing provident
fund contribution and other welfare-oriented payment obligations, and contribute to the plans in amounts equal to certain percentages
of salaries, including bonuses and allowances, of our employees up to a maximum amount specified by the local government from time to
time at locations where we operate our businesses. The requirements of employee benefit contribution plans enacted by each local governments
in China varies, given the different levels of economic development in different locations. Companies operating in China are also required
to withhold individual income tax on employees’ salaries based on the actual salary of each employee upon payment.
According to our PRC legal counsel, the operating
entity signed labor contracts with all of its employees. However, the operating entity did not pay social insurance contributions and
housing provident fund contributions in full for all of the employees for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. According to
the Social Insurance Law of the PRC, it may be ordered to pay the outstanding social insurance contributions within a prescribed deadline
and liable for a late payment fee equal to 0.05% of the outstanding amount for each day of delay. Further, it may be liable for a fine
of one to three times the amount of the outstanding contributions, provided that it still fails to pay the outstanding social insurance
contributions within the prescribed deadline. According to the Regulations on Management of Housing Provident Fund Contribution, an enterprise
that fails to make housing fund contributions may be ordered to rectify the non-compliance and pay the required contributions within
a stipulated deadline; if the enterprise fails to rectify the non-compliance by the stipulated deadline, it be may be subject to a fine
ranging from RMB10,000 (approximately $1,400) or RMB50,000 (approximately $7,000) and an application may be made to a local court for
compulsory enforcement.
As of the date of this prospectus, no administrative
actions, fines or penalties have been imposed by the relevant PRC government authorities with respect to such non-compliance, nor has
any order been received by the operating entity to settle the outstanding amount of social insurance contributions and housing provident
fund contributions. Such fees and fines, if and when imposed, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Recent joint statement by the SEC and the
PCAOB, rule changes by Nasdaq, and the HFCA 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 our continued listing or future offerings of our securities in the U.S.
On April 21, 2020, SEC Chairman Jay Clayton and
PCAOB Chairman William D. Duhnke III, 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 (i) apply a minimum offering size requirement for companies primarily operating in a “Restrictive Market,”
(ii) adopt a new requirement relating to the qualification of management or the board of directors for Restrictive Market companies,
and (iii) apply additional and more stringent criteria to an applicant or listed company based on the qualifications of the company’s
auditor. On October 4, 2021, the SEC approved Nasdaq’s revised proposal for the rule changes.
On May 20, 2020, the U.S. Senate passed the HFCA
Act requiring a foreign company to certify it is not owned or controlled by a foreign government if the PCAOB is unable to audit specified
reports because the company uses a foreign auditor not subject to PCAOB inspection. If the PCAOB is unable to inspect the company’s
auditors for three consecutive years, the issuer’s securities are prohibited to trade on a national exchange. On December 2, 2020,
the U.S. House of Representatives approved the HFCA Act. On December 18, 2020, the HFCA Act was signed into law.
On March 24, 2021, the SEC announced the adoption
of interim final amendments to implement the submission and disclosure requirements of the HFCA Act. In the announcement, the SEC clarifies
that before any issuer will have to comply with the interim final amendments, the SEC must implement a process for identifying covered
issuers. The announcement also states that the SEC staff is actively assessing how best to implement the other requirements of the HFCA
Act, including the identification process and the trading prohibition requirements.
On September 22, 2021, the PCAOB adopted a final
rule implementing the HFCA Act, which provides a framework for the PCAOB to use when determining, as contemplated under the HFCA Act,
whether the board of directors of a company is unable to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms located
in a foreign jurisdiction because of a position taken by one or more authorities in that jurisdiction.
On December 2, 2021, the SEC adopted amendments
to finalize rules implementing the submission and disclosure requirements in the HFCA Act, which became effective on January 10, 2022.
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 foreign jurisdictions. For example, on December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a report on its determinations
that it was unable to inspect or investigate completely PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and
in Hong Kong, because of positions taken by PRC authorities in those jurisdictions.
On December 16, 2021, the PCAOB issued a report
on its determinations that the Board was unable to inspect or investigate completely PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered
in mainland China and in Hong Kong, because of positions taken by PRC authorities in those jurisdictions. The Board made these determinations
pursuant to PCAOB Rule 6100, which provides a framework for how the PCAOB fulfills its responsibilities under the HFCA Act.
The lack of access to the PCAOB inspection in
China prevents the PCAOB from fully evaluating audits and quality control procedures of the auditors based in China. As a result, investors
may be deprived of the benefits of such PCAOB inspections. The inability of the PCAOB to conduct inspections of auditors in China makes
it more difficult to evaluate the effectiveness of these accounting firm’s audit procedures or quality control procedures as compared
to auditors outside of China that are subject to the PCAOB inspections, which could cause existing and potential investors in our Class
A Ordinary Shares to lose confidence in our audit procedures and reported financial information and the quality of our financial statements.
Our auditor, Wei, Wei & Co., LLP, the independent
registered public accounting firm that issues the audit report included elsewhere in this prospectus, as an auditor of companies that
are traded publicly in the United States and a firm registered with the PCAOB, is subject to laws in the United States pursuant to which
the PCAOB conducts regular inspections to assess its compliance with the applicable professional standards. Our auditor’s registration
with the PCAOB took effect in March 2006, and it is currently subject to PCAOB inspections, having its last inspection completed as of
December 31, 2022. The PCAOB currently has access to inspect the working papers of our auditor. However, the recent developments would
add uncertainties to our offering and we cannot assure you whether Nasdaq or regulatory authorities would apply additional and 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.
On August 26, 2022, the CSRC, the MOF, and the PCAOB signed the Protocol, governing inspections and investigations of accounting firms
based in mainland China and Hong Kong, taking the first step toward opening access for the PCAOB to inspect and investigate registered
public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong. Pursuant to the fact sheet with respect to the Protocol disclosed
by the SEC, the PCAOB shall have independent discretion to select any issuer audits for inspection or investigation and has the unfettered
ability to transfer information to the SEC. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB Board determined that the PCAOB was able to secure complete
access to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate
its previous determinations to the contrary. However, should PRC authorities obstruct or otherwise fail to facilitate the PCAOB’s
access in the future, the PCAOB Board will consider the need to issue a new determination. On December 29, 2022, President Biden signed
into law the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act as a part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, amending the HFCA
Act and requiring the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchange if its auditor is not subject
to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three consecutive years. The PCAOB continues to demand complete access in mainland
China and Hong Kong moving forward and is 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 also indicated that it will act immediately
to consider the need to issue new determinations with the HFCA Act, if needed.
To the extent cash or assets of our business,
or of Haoxi Beijing, is in the PRC, such cash or assets may not be available to fund operations or for other use outside of the PRC,
due to interventions of, or the imposition of restrictions and limitations by, the PRC government to the transfer of case or assets.
Relevant PRC laws and regulations permit the
companies in the PRC to pay dividends only out of their retained earnings, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards
and regulations. Additionally, each of the companies in the PRC are required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each
year, if any, to fund a statutory reserve until such reserve reaches 50% of its registered capital. The companies in the PRC are also
required to further set aside a portion of their after-tax profits to fund the employee welfare fund, although the amount to be set aside,
if any, is determined at their discretion. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. Furthermore, if we determine to pay
dividends on any of our Class A Ordinary Shares in the future, as a holding company, we will be dependent on receipt of funds from Haoxi
Beijing. As a result, in the event that Haoxi Beijing incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt
may restrict any such entity’s ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us.
Our cash dividends, if any, will be paid in U.S.
dollars. If we are considered a tax resident enterprise of the PRC for tax purposes, any dividends we pay to our overseas shareholders
may be regarded as China-sourced income and as a result may be subject to PRC withholding tax. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related
to Doing Business in China—Dividends payable to our foreign investors and gains on the sale of our Class A Ordinary Shares by our
foreign investors may be subject to PRC tax.”
The PRC government also imposes controls on the
convertibility of RMB into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of the PRC. The majority of our and
Haoxi Beijing’s income is received in RMB and shortages in foreign currencies may restrict our ability to pay dividends or other
payments, or otherwise satisfy our foreign currency denominated obligations, if any. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations,
payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from trade-related transactions,
can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from SAFE as long as certain procedural requirements are met. Approval from
appropriate government authorities is required if RMB is converted into foreign currency and remitted out of the PRC to pay capital expenses
such as the payment of loans denominated in foreign currencies. The PRC government may, at its discretion, impose restrictions on access
to foreign currencies for current account transactions and if this occurs in the future, we may not be able to pay dividends in foreign
currencies to our shareholders.
PRC laws and regulations related to our
current business operations are sometimes vague and uncertain and any changes in such laws and regulations, which may be quick with little
advance notice, and interpretations of which may impair our ability to operate profitably.
Although we have ownership of Haoxi Beijing and
currently do not have or intend to have any contractual arrangement to establish a VIE structure with any entity in the PRC, we are still
subject to certain legal and operational risks associated with Haoxi Beijing. There are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation
and application of PRC laws and regulations including, but not limited to, the laws and regulations related to our business and the enforcement
and performance of Haoxi Beijing’s arrangements with customers in certain circumstances. The laws and regulations are sometimes
vague and may be subject to future changes, and their official interpretation and enforcement may involve substantial uncertainty. The
effectiveness and interpretation of newly enacted laws or regulations, including amendments to existing laws and regulations, may be
delayed, and our business may be affected if we and Haoxi Beijing rely on laws and regulations which are subsequently adopted or interpreted
in a manner different from our understanding of these laws and regulations. New laws and regulations that affect existing and proposed
future businesses may also be applied retroactively. We cannot predict what effect the interpretation of existing or new PRC laws or
regulations may have on our business.
The uncertainties regarding the enforcement of
laws and the fact that rules and regulations in mainland China can change quickly with little advance notice, along with the risk that
the Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations at any time, or may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas
and/or foreign investment could result in a material change in our operations, financial performance and/or the value of our Class A
Ordinary Shares or impair our ability to raise money.
Risks Related to the Operating Entity’s
Business and Industry
If advertisers
stop purchasing online marketing services from the operating entity or decrease the amount they are willing to spend on marketing campaigns
and promotional activities, or if the operating entity is unable to establish and maintain new relationships with advertisers, its business,
financial condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
A substantial majority
of the operating entity’s revenue is derived from providing online marketing services to healthcare industry advertisers. Its online
marketing services are designed to help advertisers drive consumer demand, increase sales, and achieve operating efficiencies. Thus,
the operating entity’s relationships with advertisers primarily depend on its ability to deliver quality marketing services at
attractive volumes and prices. If advertisers are dissatisfied with the effectiveness of the marketing campaigns provided by the operating
entity, they may stop purchasing its online marketing services or decrease the amount they are willing to spend on marketing campaigns
and promotional activities. The operating entity’s agreements with advertisers are largely short-term agreements, and advertisers
may cease purchasing its online marketing services at any time with no prior notice.
In addition to the quality
of the operating entity’s online marketing services, the willingness of advertisers to spend their online marketing budget through
it, which is critical to its business and its ability to generate revenue, can be influenced by a variety of factors, including:
|
● |
macro-economic and social
factors: domestic, regional, and global social, economic, and political conditions; economic and geopolitical challenges; the COVID-19
pandemic; and economic, monetary, and fiscal policies; |
|
● |
industry-related factors:
the trends, preferences, and habits of audiences towards online marketing and the development of varying forms of online marketing
and content; and |
|
● |
advertiser-specific factors:
an advertiser’s specific development strategies, business performance, financial condition, and sales and marketing plans. |
In view of the above,
we cannot ensure you that the operating entity’s advertisers will continue to purchase its services or that it will be able to
replace, in a timely and effective manner, departing advertisers with potential new and quality advertisers. Neither can we guarantee
the amount of online marketing services the operating entity’s advertisers will purchase from it, or that it will be able to attract
new advertisers or increase the amount of revenue it earns from advertisers over time. If the operating entity is unable to maintain
existing relationships with its advertisers or continue to expand its advertiser base, the demand for its marketing services will not
grow and may even decrease, which could materially and adversely affect its revenue and profitability.
If the operating
entity fails to maintain its relationships with its media partners, its business, results of operations, financial condition and business
prospects could be materially and adversely affected.
The operating entity
has established and maintained relationships with a wide range of media. Its future growth will depend on its ability to maintain its
relationships with existing media partners as well as building partnerships with new media.
In
particular, the operating entity established cooperative relationships, directly or indirectly
through their authorized agents, with some popular online media, especially media platforms
operated by ByteDance, such as TouTiao, Douyin, and Xigua Video, through directly executing
agreements with them or their authorized agencies, to help them procure advertisers to buy
their ad inventory and facilitate ad deployment on their advertising channels. ByteDance
is a Chinese technology enterprise that offers a range of education and entertainment content
platforms, including video-sharing social networking. The operating entity is materially
dependent on media platforms operated by ByteDance to acquire user traffic and place ads
for its advertiser customers. Currently, the operating entity has established a direct contractual
relationship with Henan Ocean Engine Information Technology Co., Ltd. (“Ocean Engine”),
a subsidiary of ByteDance, which operates as a mobile marketing platform helping clients
advertise their products on ByteDance’s apps, such as Toutiao, Douyin, and Xigua Video,
through a business cooperation agreement. The operating entity has had an established contractual
relationship with Ocean Engine since June 16, 2022. The Business Cooperation Agreement on
Agent Data Promotion currently in effect with Ocean Engine has a term from January 1, 2024
to December 31, 2024. Under this agreement, the operating entity is authorized to be an advertising
agent to place ads on the media platforms operated by Ocean Engine and/or its affiliates,
except in the industries of certain regions which Ocean Engine itself is an advertising agent,
and in the industries of automobile manufacturing, automobile dealership, and real estate
development. The English translation of the agreements between the operating entity and Ocean
Engine are filed herewith as Exhibit 10.4. The purchase amount of the operating entity’s
transactions with Ocean Engine accounted for 99% of its total purchases for the six months
ended December 31, 2023, and 96% of its total purchases for the fiscal year ended June 30,
2023.
The operating entity also keeps a close connection
with third-party agents of other mainstream platforms, with which platforms the operating entity has no direct contact. For a detailed
discussion of the operating entity’s relation with its media partners, see “Business—Competitive Strengths—Media
Resources—The Operating Entity’s Relation with Media Partners.” The operating entity’s relationships with its
media partners are mainly governed by agreements which provide for, among other things, credit periods and the rebate polices offered
to us. These agreements typically have a term of one year or shorter, and are subject to renewal upon expiry. The commercial terms under
the agreements are subject to renegotiation when they are renewed. Besides, media partners usually retain the right to terminate the
cooperative relationship based on business needs at their discretion.
Hence, there is no assurance that the operating
entity can maintain stable cooperative relationships with any media partners. Moreover, its relationships with media partners could be
adversely affected if it cannot meet the target minimum advertising spend stipulated in the relevant agreements.
If any media partner ends its cooperative relationship
with the operating entity or imposes commercial terms which are less favorable to it, or the operating entity fails to secure cooperative
relationships with new media partners, it may lose access to the relevant advertising channels, lose its advertiser clients, and lose
potential revenue. As a result, the operating entity’s business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects may be
materially and adversely affected.
Also, the operating entity’s business depends
on its media partners to deliver their advertising services on their platforms, which in turn rely on the performance, reliability and
stability of the Internet infrastructure and telecommunications systems. As a result, any interruption or failure of their information
technology and communications systems may undermine the delivery of the operating entity’s advertising services and cause it to
lose advertisers, and its business, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected.
In addition, the operating entity depends on
the accuracy and genuineness of advertising performance data and other data provided by media partners in evaluating the effectiveness
of its advertisers’ advertising campaigns and calculating the amount of rebates or incentives that it is entitled to receive from
media. If the advertising performance data or other data provided by media is inaccurate or fraudulent, it may undermine the operating
entity’s optimization efforts to achieve better performance for its advertisers’ ads. This could also result in disputes
with its advertisers and media, harm to its reputation and loss of its advertisers and media, and adversely affect its business, results
of operations and financial condition.
As the operating entity continues to strive
for business growth, we may continue to experience net cash outflow from operating activities, and we cannot assure you that we can maintain
sufficient net cash inflows from operating activities.
We reported net cash provided by operating activities
of $0.30 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and cash provided by operating activities of $0.21 million for the six months
ended December 31, 2022. We reported net cash used in operating activities of $0.87 million for the fiscal year 2023 and cash used in
operating activities of $0.67 million for the fiscal year 2022. During the six months ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and
the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, certain media the operating entity procured for its advertisers required prepayment or
offer relatively short credit periods to it. While the operating entity has used reasonable efforts to align credit terms granted to
it in connection with a particular media partner when it offers credit terms to advertisers using the relevant media, in cases where
it engages in cross-selling of ad inventories or services of different media to its existing advertisers, it usually aligns the credit
terms it offers to such advertisers to the most favorable terms offered to it among the media used. Moreover, the operating entity may
offer more competitive terms to selected advertisers of established business relationship with it or of significant size, with significant
market impact or strategic value, while their choices of media may not offer comparable credit terms to the operating entity or at all.
In addition, during the six months ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and the fiscal years 2023 and 2022, the operating entity
was required by certain media partners (or their authorized agencies) to place deposits as performance security, and it may elect to
make deposits associated with committed advertising spend on behalf of selected advertisers as required by certain media partners before
running their advertising campaigns. The operating entity considers the above practices to be generally in line with the industry practice
and competitive landscape, and it expects these practices to continue in the foreseeable future.
All the above have contributed to a timing mismatch
in our operating cash flow, as such impact is generally positively correlated with our business volume. As the operating entity further
expands its business, our requirements for working capital and other necessary payments (such as capital expenditures) will increase.
The operating entity’s operations may not generate sufficient cash flows to meet our operating and capital requirements in the
future. Historically, we have utilized a loan provided by a related party in fiscal year 2021, which was repaid in fiscal year 2022,
to supplement our operating cash flow shortage from time to time. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Financing activities.” We cannot assure you that
going forward we will be able to reverse back to a net operating cash inflow position, or generate sufficient cash inflow from the operating
entity’s operations or obtain adequate debt or equity financing at reasonable costs, or at all, to meet such requirements. If we
fail to successfully manage our working capital needs or acquire adequate funding to finance our expansion, our ability to pay media
partners and employees and otherwise fund our operations and expansion could be impaired, and our business, financial condition and results
of operations may be materially and adversely affected.
The limited operating history of the operating
entity the in rapidly evolving industry makes it difficult to accurately forecast its future operating results and evaluate its business
prospects.
The operating entity launched its online marketing
services business in 2018 and has since seen the growth of its business. We expect the operating entity will continue to grow as it seeks
to expand its advertiser and media bases and explore new market opportunities. However, due to its limited operating history, its historical
growth rate may not be indicative of its future performance. The online marketing industry in China is rapidly evolving due to the constant
development of digital technology and the variety of consumer demand. The operating entity’s future performance may be more susceptible
to certain risks than a company with a longer operating history or in a different industry. Many of the factors discussed below could
adversely affect our business and prospects and future performance, including:
|
● |
the operating entity’s
ability to maintain, expand, and further develop its relationships with advertisers to meet their increasing demands; |
|
● |
the operating entity’s
ability to introduce and manage the development of new online marketing services; |
|
● |
the continued growth and
development of the online marketing industry; |
|
● |
the operating entity’s
ability to keep up with the technological developments or new business models of the rapidly evolving online marketing industry; |
|
● |
the operating entity’s
ability to attract and retain qualified and skilled employees; |
|
● |
the operating entity’s
ability to effectively manage our growth; and |
|
● |
The operating entity’s
ability to compete effectively with its competitors in the online marketing industry. |
We may not be successful in addressing the risks
and uncertainties listed above, among others, which may materially and adversely affect the operating entity’s business, results
of operations, financial condition, and future prospects.
Certain customers contributed to a significant
percentage of our total revenue during the fiscal years 2023 and 2022, and losing one or more of them could have in a material adverse
impact on our financial performance and business prospects.
During the six months ended December 31, 2023,
we did not have any customer which contributed over 10% of our total revenues. During the six months ended December 31, 2022, a significant
percentage of our total revenue was generated from a few customers. Beijing Hangtian Kadi Development Institute (“Hangtian Kadi”)
had been a top customer during the six months ended December 31, 2022, accounting for 22% of the operating entity’s revenue. During
the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we derived a significant percentage of our total revenue from a few customers. Our five
largest customers accounted, in the aggregate, for 36.81% and 55.65% of our total revenue for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and
2022, respectively. Jinan Modern Dermatology Hospital (“JMDH”) and Hangtian Kadi were, respectively, our top two customers
during fiscal years 2023 and 2022, with JMDH accounting for 10.32% of our total revenues for the fiscal year 2023 and Hangtian Kadi accounting
for 25.80% of our total revenues for the fiscal year 2022. Our top 10 customers during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022
include healthcare companies, such as plastic surgery hospitals and dental hospitals, which place ads through the operating entity. The
identities of its customers vary depending on the type of revenue and the nature of the business transaction, comprising both advertisers
and media (or their authorized agencies). See “Business—Customers, Sales, and Marketing.”
The operating entity typically enters into agreements
with these top customers with a term of one year or shorter, which are subject to renewal after expiry. Any failure to renew these agreements
or any termination of such agreements may have a material adverse impact on our results of operations.
There are a number of factors, including the
operating entity’s performance, that could cause the loss of, or decrease in the volume of business from, a customer. Even though
it has a strong record of performance, we cannot assure you that the operating entity will continue to maintain the business cooperation
with these customers at the same level, or at all. The loss of business from one or more of these significant customers, or any downward
adjustment of the rates of rebates and incentives paid by media (or their authorized agencies), could materially and adversely affect
the operating entity’s revenue and profit. Furthermore, if any significant advertiser or media terminates its relationship with
it, we cannot assure you that the operating entity will be able to secure an alternative arrangement with comparable advertiser or media
in a timely manner, or at all.
We have significantly unstable operating
revenue, anticipate increases in our operating expenses in the future, and may not achieve or sustain profitability on a consistent basis.
If we cannot achieve and sustain profitability, our business, financial condition, and operating results may be adversely affected.
We have had significantly unstable and volatile
operating revenue—specifically, our total revenue increased by $14.34 million, or 157%, to $23.50 million for the six months ended
December 31, 2023 from $9.16 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to an increase in the number of advertiser
customers and the fees the operating entity charged them. Our total revenue increased by $12.07 million, or 75%, to $28.23 million for
the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 from $16.16 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to provision of digital
advertising services to more customers. During the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the operating entity served 338 and 183
advertiser customers, respectively. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023, the number of advertiser customers the operating entity
served was 393, which was 150 more than for fiscal year 2022. In addition, for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we reported
net income $0.76 million and $0.45 million, respectively. We reported net income of $969,752 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023,
an increase of $725,165 from net income of $244,587 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. See “Management’s Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Results of Operations.” We cannot assure you that we will achieve
or maintain profitability on a consistent basis. Our revenue growth may slow or our revenue may decline for a number of reasons, including
reduced demand for the operating entity’s online marketing services, increased competition, or our failure to capitalize on growth
opportunities. Meanwhile, we expect our overall selling, general, and administrative expenses, including marketing expenses, salaries,
and professional and business consulting expenses, to continue to increase in the foreseeable future, as we plan to hire additional personnel
and incur additional expenses in connection with the expansion of our business operations. In addition, we also expect to incur significant
additional legal, accounting, and other expenses as a newly public company. These efforts and additional expenses may be costlier than
we currently expect, and there is no assurance that we will be able to maintain sufficient operating revenue to offset our operating
expenses. Any failure to increase revenue or to manage our costs as we continue to grow and invest in our business would prevent us from
achieving or maintaining profitability or maintaining positive operating cash flow at all, or on a consistent basis, which would cause
our business, financial condition, and results of operations to suffer.
The operating entity is in the highly competitive
online advertising service industry and it may not be able to compete successfully against existing or new competitors, which could reduce
its market share and adversely affect its competitive position and financial performance.
There are numerous companies that specialize
in the provision of online advertising services in China. The operating entity competes primarily with its competitors and potential
competitors for access to quality ad inventory, agency relationships with popular media, and advertiser base. The online advertising
industry in China is rapidly evolving. Competition can be increasingly intensive and is expected to increase significantly in the future.
Increased competition may result in price reductions for advertising services, decrease in the rates of rebates and incentives offered
by media to their authorized agencies, reduced margins and loss of our market share. The operating entity competes with other competitors
in China primarily on the following bases:
|
● |
brand recognition; |
|
|
|
|
● |
quality of services; |
|
|
|
|
● |
effectiveness of sales
and marketing efforts; |
|
|
|
|
● |
creativity in design and
contents of ads; |
|
|
|
|
● |
optimization capability; |
|
|
|
|
● |
pricing, rebate and discount
policies; |
|
|
|
|
● |
strategic relationships;
and |
|
|
|
|
● |
hiring and retention of
talented staff. |
The operating entity’s existing competitors
may in the future achieve greater market acceptance and recognition, secure authorized agency status with increasing number of popular
media, and gain a greater market share. It is also possible that potential competitors may emerge and acquire a significant market share.
If existing or potential competitors develop or offer services that provide significant performance, price, creative, optimization or
other advantages over those offered by the operating entity, its business, results of operations and financial condition would be negatively
affected.
The operating entity’s existing and potential
competitors may enjoy competitive advantages over it, such as a longer operating history, greater brand recognition, a larger advertiser
base, greater access to ad inventory, and significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources.
The operating entity also competes with traditional
forms of media, such as newspapers, magazines, radio and television broadcast, for advertisers and advertising revenue.
If the operating entity fails to compete successfully,
it could lose out in procuring advertisers, securing agency relationships with potential media partners, and acquiring access to ad inventory,
which could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations, and prospects. We also cannot assure you that the operating
entity’s strategies will remain competitive or that they will continue to be successful in the future. Increasing competition could
result in pricing pressure and loss of our market share, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition
and results of operations.
If the operating entity fails to improve
its services to keep up with the rapidly changing demands, preferences, advertising trends, or technologies in the online marketing industry,
its revenue and growth could be adversely affected.
We consider the online marketing industry to
be dynamic, as the operating entity faces (i) constant changes in audiences’ interests, preferences, and receptiveness over different
advertisement formats, (ii) evolution of the needs of advertisers in response to shifts in their business needs and marketing strategies,
and (iii) innovations in the means on digital advertising. As a result, the operating entity’s success depends not only on its
ability to offer proper choices of media, deliver effective optimization services, and provide creative advertising ideas, but also on
its ability to adapt to rapidly changing online trends and technologies to enhance the quality of existing services and to develop and
introduce new services to address advertisers’ changing demands.
The operating entity may experience difficulties
that could delay or prevent the successful development, introduction, or marketing of our new services. Any new service or enhancement
will need to meet the requirements of its existing and potential advertisers and may not achieve significant market acceptance. If the
operating entity fails to keep pace with changing trends and technologies, continue to offer effective optimization services and creative
advertising ideas to the satisfaction of its advertisers, or introduce successful and well-accepted services for its existing and potential
advertisers, the operating entity may lose its advertisers and our revenue and growth could be adversely affected.
Limitations on the availability of data
and the operating entity’s ability to analyze such data could significantly restrict its optimization capability and cause it to
lose advertisers, which may harm its business and results of operations.
The operating entity’s capability to plan
and optimize advertising campaigns is partly dependent on the availability of data generated by the media based on the ad interaction
behavior between such media and their end users. Its access to such data from media is limited by the relevant media’s data policies.
Typically, the operating entity can only access data that are made available by the media to it or their authorized agencies. In addition,
there is no assurance that the government will not adopt legislation that prohibits or limits collection of data on the Internet and
the use of such data, or that third parties will not bring lawsuits against the media or the operating entity relating to Internet privacy
and data collection. As of the date of this prospectus, as confirmed by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law Firm, the operating entity’s
business operations are in compliance with the relevant laws and regulations on data protection and privacy, including the Cyber Security
Law of the People’s Republic of China, which was enacted by the SCNPC on November 7, 2016 and became effective on June 1, 2017,
the Measures for Cybersecurity Review, and the Regulations on Network Data Security issued and revised by the CAC on July 10, 2021, and
November 14, 2021. See “—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—There are uncertainties regarding the interpretation
and enforcement of PRC laws, rules and regulations.” Due to the recent development of laws and regulations on data protection and
privacy and evolving interpretations of competent authorities, media and online advertising service providers will be subject to more
stringent requirements on data sharing with third-parties, which may limit our ability to obtain data from them. Therefore, we cannot
assure you that the operating entity will be in full compliance with all applicable laws and regulations on data protection and privacy
in the future.
In the event of any future non-compliance with
laws and regulations on data protection and privacy, the operating entity may be unable to provide effective services and may lose its
advertisers, and our business, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected. Lawsuits or administrative
inquiries relating to Internet privacy and data collection could also be costly and divert management resources, and the outcome of such
lawsuits or inquiries may be uncertain and could harm our business.
The regulatory environment of the online
advertising industry is rapidly evolving. If the operating entity fails to obtain and maintain the requisite licenses and approvals applicable
to its business in China from time to time, its business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely
affected.
As confirmed by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law
Firm, the operating entity does not need, except the business license, any other licenses, permissions, and approvals to engage in the
businesses currently conducted in the PRC. The WFOE and Haoxi Beijing both are required to have, and each has obtained, a business license,
which is requisite for all companies incorporated in China, which are issued by the SAMR or its local counterparts. See “Prospectus
Summary—Permission Required from PRC Authorities.” However, the licensing requirements within the online advertising industry
in China are constantly evolving and subject to the interpretation of the competent authorities, and the operating entity may be subject
to new regulatory requirements due to changes in the political or economic policies in the relevant jurisdictions or changes in the interpretation
of the scope of Internet culture business. We cannot assure you that the operating entity will be able to satisfy such regulatory requirements
and the operating entity may be unable to retain, obtain or renew relevant licenses, permits or approvals in the future, and as a result,
the operating entity’s business operations may be materially and adversely affected.
Non-compliance with laws and regulations
on the part of any third parties with which the operating entity conducts business could expose it to legal expenses, compensations to
third parties, penalties and disruption of its business, which may adversely affect its results of operations and financial performance.
Third parties with which the operating entity
conducts business with may be subject to regulatory penalties or punishments because of their regulatory compliance failures or may be
infringing upon other parties’ legal rights, which may, directly or indirectly, result in an adverse effect to its business. We
cannot be certain whether such third party has violated any regulatory requirements or infringed or will infringe any other parties’
legal rights, which could expose us to legal expenses, compensation to third parties, or compensation.
We, therefore, cannot rule out the possibility
of incurring liabilities or suffering losses due to any non-compliance by third parties. There is no assurance that we will be able to
identify irregularities or non-compliance in the business practices of third parties the operating entity conducts business with, or
that such irregularities or non-compliance will be corrected in a prompt and proper manner. Any legal liabilities and regulatory actions
affecting third parties involved in the operating entity’s business may affect its business activities and reputations, and may
in turn affect our business, results of operations and financial performance.
Moreover, regulatory penalties or punishments
against the operating entity’s business stakeholders (i.e., advertisers and media), even without resulting in any legal or regulatory
implications upon it, may nonetheless cause business interruptions or even suspension of these business stakeholders of the operating
entity’s, and may result in abrupt changes in their business emphasis, such as changes in advertising and/or ad inventory offering
strategies, any of which could disrupt our usual course of business with them and result in material negative impact on our business
operations, results of operation and financial condition.
The operating entity is subject to, and
may expend significant resources in defending against, government actions and civil claims in connection with false, fraudulent, misleading
or otherwise illegal marketing content for which we provide agency services.
Under the Advertising Law of the PRC (《中华人民共和国广告法》)
(the “Advertising Law”), where an advertising operator provides advertising design, production or agency services with respect
to an advertisement when it knows or should have known that the advertisement is false, fraudulent, misleading or otherwise illegal,
the competent PRC authority may confiscate the advertising operator’s advertising revenue from such services, impose penalties,
order it to cease dissemination of such false, fraudulent, misleading or otherwise illegal advertisement or correct such advertisement,
or suspend or revoke its business licenses under certain serious circumstances.
Under the Advertising Law, “advertising
operators” include any natural person, legal person or other organization that provides advertising design, production or agency
services to advertisers for their advertising activities. Since the operating entity’s services involve provision of agency services
to advertisers, including helping them identify, engage and convert audiences, and create content catering to their potential audience
across different media, it is deemed as an “advertising operator” under the PRC Advertising Law. Therefore, the operating
entity is required to examine advertising content for which it provides advertising services for compliance with applicable laws, notwithstanding
the fact that the advertising content may have been previously published, and that the advertisers also bear liabilities for the content
in their advertisements.
In addition, for advertising content relating
to certain types of products and services, such as pharmaceuticals and medical procedures, the operating entity is expected to confirm
that the advertisers have obtained requisite government approvals, including operating qualifications, proof of quality inspection for
the advertised products, government pre-approval of the content of the advertisements and filings with the local authorities.
Although the operating entity has established
internal policies to review the advertising content before it is distributed to ensure compliance with applicable laws, we cannot ensure
that each advertisement for which the operating entity provides advertising services complies with all PRC laws and regulations relevant
to advertising activities, that supporting documentation provided by its advertisers is authentic or complete, or that it is able to
identify and rectify all non-compliances in a timely manner.
Moreover, civil claims may be filed against the
operating entity for fraud, negligence, or other violations due to the nature and content of the information for which it provides agency
services. For example, the operating entity generally represents and warrants in its contracts with media as to the truthfulness of the
advertising content that it places on these media, and agrees to indemnify the media for any losses resulting from false, fraudulent,
misleading or otherwise illegal advertising content that it places on these media. In the event the operating entity is subject to government
actions or civil claims in connection with false, fraudulent, misleading or otherwise illegal marketing content for which it provides
agency services, our reputation, business and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.
If the operating entity’s media sustain
cyber-attacks or other privacy or data security incidents that result in security breaches, it could be subject to increased costs, liabilities,
reputational harm or other negative consequences.
The operating entity’s media’s information
technology may be subject to cyber-attacks, viruses, malicious software, break-ins, theft, computer hacking, phishing, employee error
or malfeasance or other security breaches. Hackers and data thieves are increasingly sophisticated and operate large-scale and complex
automatic hacks. Experienced computer programmers and hackers may be able to penetrate the operating entity’s media’s security
controls and misappropriate or compromise sensitive proprietary or confidential information, create system disruptions or cause shutdowns.
They also may be able to develop and deploy malicious software programs that attack the operating entity’s media’s systems
or otherwise exploit any security vulnerabilities. The operating entity’s media’s systems and the data stored on those systems
also may be vulnerable to security incidents or security attacks, acts of vandalism or theft, coordinated attacks by activist entities,
misplaced or lost data, human errors, or other similar events that could negatively affect the systems and the data stored on or transmitted
by those systems, including the data of our advertisers or our media. If any of the operating entity’s media experiences cyber-attacks
and fails to publish advertisements as a result, which is out of the operating entity’s control, the operating entity may be liable
to its advertisers, and its operations could be interrupted or it could incur financial, legal or reputational losses arising from misappropriation,
misuse, leakage, falsification or intentional or accidental release or loss of information. The number and complexity of these threats
continue to increase over time.
Any negative publicity about the operating
entity, its services and its management may materially and adversely affect its reputation and business.
The operating entity may from time to time receive
negative publicity about it, its management or its business. Certain of such negative publicity may be the result of malicious harassment
or unfair competition acts by third parties. The operating entity may even be subject to government or regulatory investigation (including
those relating to advertising materials which are alleged to be illegal) as a result of such third-party conduct and may be required
to spend significant time and incur substantial costs to defend itself against such third-party conduct, and it may not be able to conclusively
refute each of the allegations within a reasonable period of time, or at all. Harm to the operating entity’s reputation and confidence
of advertisers and media can also arise for other reasons, including misconduct of its employees or any third-party business partners
whom it conducts business with. The operating entity’s reputation may be materially and adversely affected as a result of any negative
publicity, which in turn may cause it to lose market share, advertising customers, industry partners, and other business partnerships.
If the operating entity fails to manage
its growth or execute its strategies and future plans effectively, it may not be able to take advantage of market opportunities or meet
the demands of its advertisers.
The operating entity’s business has grown
substantially since its inception, and we expect it to continue to grow in terms of the scale and diversity of operations. The operating
entity have significantly expanded its headcount and office facilities, and we anticipate further expansion in terms of its advertiser
base and media relationships. This expansion increases the complexity of the operating entity’s operations and may cause strain
on its managerial, operational and financial resources. It must continue to hire, train and effectively manage new employees. If its
new hires perform poorly or if it is unsuccessful in hiring, training, managing and integrating new employees, its business, financial
condition and results of operations may be materially harmed. Its expansion will also require it to maintain the consistency of its service
offerings to ensure that its market reputation does not suffer as a result of any deviations, whether actual or perceived, in the quality
of its services.
The operating entity’s future results of
operations also depend largely on its ability to execute our future plans successfully. In particular, the operating entity’s continued
growth may subject it to the following additional challenges and constraints:
|
● |
it faces challenges in
ensuring the productivity of a large employee base and recruiting, training and retaining highly skilled personnel, including areas
of sales and marketing, advertising concepts, optimization skills, media management and information technology for its growing operations; |
|
|
|
|
● |
it faces challenges in
responding to evolving industry standards and government regulation that impact its business and the online advertising industry
in general, particularly in the areas of content dissemination; |
|
● |
it may have limited experience
for certain new service offerings, and its expansion into these new service offerings may not achieve broad acceptance among advertisers; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the technological or operational
challenges may arise from the new services; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the execution of the future
plan will be subject to the availability of funds to support the relevant capital investment and expenditures; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
the successful execution
of its strategies is subject to factors beyond its control, such as general market conditions, economic, and political development
in China and globally. |
All of these endeavors involve risks and will
require significant management, financial and human resources. We cannot assure you that the operating entity will be able to effectively
manage its growth or to implement its strategies successfully. Besides, there is no assurance that the investment to be made by the operating
entity as contemplated under its future plans will be successful and generate the expected return. If the operating entity is not able
to manage its growth or execute its strategies effectively, or at all, our business, results of operations and prospects may be materially
and adversely affected.
Pandemics, epidemics and other outbreaks,
natural disasters, terrorist activities, and political unrest could disrupt the PRC operating entities’ delivery and operations,
which could materially and adversely affect their business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Global pandemics, epidemics in China or elsewhere
in the world, or fear of the spread of contagious diseases, such as Ebola virus disease (EVD), coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), Middle
East respiratory syndrome (MERS), severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), H1N1 flu, H7N9 flu, and avian flu, as well as hurricanes,
earthquakes, tsunamis, or other natural disasters could disrupt the operating entity’s business operations, reduce or restrict
its supply of products, incur significant costs to protect its employees and facilities, or result in regional or global economic distress,
which may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Actual or threatened war, terrorist
activities, political unrest, civil strife, and other geopolitical uncertainty could have a similar adverse effect on our business, financial
condition, and results of operations. Any one or more of these events may impede and adversely affect operating entity’s operations,
whether short-term or for a prolonged period of time, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition,
and results of operations.
Since late December 2019, the outbreak of a novel
strain of coronavirus, later named COVID-19 has spread globally. On January 30, 2020, the International Health Regulations Emergency
Committee of the World Health Organization declared the outbreak a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC),”
and later on March 11, 2020, a global “pandemic.” The COVID-19 pandemic has led governments across the globe to impose a
series of measures intended to contain its spread, including border closures, travel bans, quarantine measures, social distancing, and
restrictions on business operations and large gatherings. From 2020 to the middle of 2022, COVID-19 vaccination programs have been greatly
promoted around the globe; however several types of COVID-19 variants have emerged in different parts of the world and caused temporary
lockdowns. Restrictions had been re-imposed from time to time in certain cities to combat sporadic outbreaks of COVID-19 in the PRC from
early 2020 through December 2022. For example, in early 2022, the Omicron variant of COVID-19 was identified in China, especially in
Shenzhen and Shanghai city, Jilin Province and Beijing, where strict lockdowns were imposed. In addition, in the second half of 2022,
some cities, including Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Beijing, remained under lockdown for discrete periods of time, due to measures to contain
the spread of Omicron and the zero-COVID measures taken by the local governments.
Moreover, from the middle of 2022 to December
2022, the economy in China slowed down when large-scale COVID-19 resurgences happened in multiple metropolitan areas of China and restrictive
measures were widely taken. As result, our average revenue per customer during the six months ended December 31, 2022 was lower compared
to that for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. However, because more people opted to use various online services since the
beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an increase in the number of the operating entity’s advertiser customers for the
six months ended December 31, 2022 compared to that for the six months ended December 31, 2021.
Since December 2022, many of the restrictive
policies previously adopted by the Chinese government at various levels to control the spread of COVID-19 have been revoked or replaced
with more flexible measures. As a result, Internet users have more chances to purchase the healthcare services they are interested in
in person after watching the online advertisements of our advertiser customers. We believe this has incentivized our advertiser customers
to invest more of their budget in placing online advertisements. While our average revenue per customer during the six months ended December
31, 2022 was negatively impacted by COVID-19 and relevant restrictive measures, our revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023
overall were not materially affected by COVID-19. The average revenue per customer increased from $66,489 for the fiscal year ended June
30, 2022 to $71,830 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. In addition, the number of advertiser customers that the operating entity
served increased from 243 customers during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, to 393 customers during the fiscal year ended June 30,
2023, representing a 61.7% increase. As a result, our revenues generated from online marketing and digital advertising services increased
by $12,072,284 from the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. For the six months ended December 31,
2023, our revenues were not impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations Results of Operations—Results of Operations—For Six Months Ended December 31, 2021 and 2022—Revenue.”
The potential further impact on the results of
operations will depend on future developments and information that may emerge regarding the duration and severity of COVID-19 and the
actions taken by governmental authorities and other entities to contain COVID-19 or to mitigate its impacts, almost all of which are
beyond our control. Given the general slowdown in economic conditions globally and volatility in the capital markets, we cannot assure
you that we will be able to maintain the growth rate we have experienced or projected. We will continue to closely monitor the situation
throughout 2023 and beyond.
The operating entity is also vulnerable to natural
disasters and other calamities. The operating entity cannot assure you that it is adequately protected from the effects of fire, floods,
typhoons, earthquakes, power loss, telecommunications failures, break-ins, war, riots, terrorist attacks, or similar force majeure
events. Any of the foregoing events may give rise to interruptions or damage to the operating entity’s property, delays in
providing its services, breakdowns, system failures, technology platform failures, or internet failures, which could cause the loss or
corruption of data or malfunctions of the operating entity’s facilities, which could in turn adversely affect our business,
financial condition, and results of operations.
The operating entity’s business is
geographically concentrated, which subjects it to greater risks from changes in local or regional conditions.
Substantially all of the operating entity’s
current operations are located in China. Due to this geographic concentration, its financial condition and operating results are subject
to greater risks from changes in general economic and other conditions in China, than the operations of more geographically diversified
competitors. These risks include:
|
● |
changes in economic conditions
and unemployment rates; |
|
|
|
|
● |
changes in laws and regulations; |
|
|
|
|
● |
changes in the competitive
environment; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
adverse weather conditions
and natural disasters. |
As a result of the geographic concentration of
the operating entity’s business, we face a greater risk of a negative impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations,
and prospects in the event that China is more severely impacted by any such adverse condition, as compared to other countries.
The operating entity is exposed to concentration
risk, due to its reliance on its major supplier, Ocean Engine. If the operating entity’s relationship with Ocean Engine deteriorates,
or it’s unable to renew its agreement with Ocean Engine on substantially similar terms, our financial performance, results of operation
and ongoing growth could be adversely affected.
The operating entity’s purchases are highly
concentrated. For the six months ended December 31, 2023, Ocean Engine accounted for approximately 99% of the total purchases. For the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, Ocean Engine accounted for approximately 96% of the total purchases. Ocean Engine, as a media platform
itself and the subsidiary of ByteDance, offers the operating entity with a more favorable pricing and rebate policy when the operating
entity places ads for its advertiser customers on ByteDance’s apps, such as Toutiao, Douyin, and Xigua Video, as compared with
third-party agents of these media platforms. However, the lack of diversification in the operating entity’s supplier base increases
its vulnerability to fluctuations in traffic acquisition cost, which could have a negative impact on its gross margin. The Business Cooperation
Agreement on Agent Data Promotion currently in effect between the operating entity and Ocean Engine has a term from January 1, 2024 to
December 31, 2024, without an automatic renewal clause. If the operating entity’s relationship with Ocean Engine deteriorates,
or it is unable to renew its agreement with Ocean Engine on substantially similar terms, whether due to unforeseen circumstances, changes
in Ocean Engine’s business strategy, or any other reasons, the operating entity would suffer disruptions in the procurement of
user traffic and ad inventory, and the placement of ads for its advertiser customers. This could result in locating alternative third-party
agents of media platforms. As a result, our gross margin, financial performance, result of operation and ongoing growth could also be
adversely affected.
Unauthorized use of the operating entity’s
intellectual property by third parties and expenses incurred in protecting its intellectual property rights may adversely affect its
business, reputation and competitive edge.
We regard the operating entity’s domain
names and other intellectual property rights as important to its success, and it relies on a combination of intellectual property laws
and contractual arrangements, including confidentiality and non-compete agreements with its employees and others to protect its proprietary
rights. For details, please refer to “Business—Intellectual Property.”
As part of the operating entity’s intellectual
property protection policies, it has filed various applications in the PRC for protection of certain aspects of its intellectual property,
including multiple trademark and software copyright applications. Nevertheless, we can provide no assurance that the operating entity
will be able to have all applications registered. If the operating entity fails to register, it may not be able to use the intellectual
property without risk of infringement and, even if it can use them, it may have difficulty in enforcing such intellectual property rights
against infringement by third parties, and this could have a material adverse impact on its business, financial conditions, and operating
results.
Despite these measures, any of the operating
entity’s intellectual property rights could be challenged, invalidated, circumvented or misappropriated, or such intellectual property
may not be sufficient to provide us with competitive advantages. It may be difficult to maintain and enforce intellectual property rights
in China. Statutory laws and regulations are subject to judicial interpretation and enforcement and may not be applied consistently.
Confidentiality, invention assignment and non-compete agreements may be breached by counterparties, and there may not be adequate remedies
available to the operating entity for any such breach. Accordingly, the operating entity may not be able to effectively protect its intellectual
property rights or to enforce its contractual rights in all jurisdictions.
Preventing any unauthorized use of the operating
entity’s intellectual property is difficult and costly and the steps it takes may be inadequate to prevent the misappropriation
of its intellectual property. In the event that it resorts to litigation to enforce our intellectual property rights, such litigation
could result in substantial costs and a diversion of its managerial and financial resources. We can provide no assurance that the operating
entity will prevail in such litigation.
In addition, the operating entity’s trade
secrets may be leaked or otherwise become available to, or be independently discovered by, its competitors. Any failure in protecting
or enforcing its intellectual property rights could have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation and competitive edge.
Third parties may claim that the operating
entity infringes on their proprietary intellectual property rights, which could cause it to incur significant legal expenses and prevent
it from promoting its services.
We cannot be certain that the operating entity’s
operations or any aspects of its business do not or will not infringe upon or otherwise violate trademarks, patents, copyrights, know-how
or other intellectual property rights held by third parties. The operating entity may be from time to time in the future subject to legal
proceedings and claims relating to the intellectual property rights of others. In addition, there may be third-party trademarks, patents,
copyrights, know-how or other intellectual property rights that are infringed by the operating entity’s products, services or other
aspects of its business without its awareness. Holders of such intellectual property rights may seek to enforce such intellectual property
rights against it in various jurisdictions.
If any third-party infringement claims are brought
against the operating entity, we may be forced to divert management’s time and other resources from its business and operations
to defend against these claims, regardless of their merits. Additionally, the application and interpretation of intellectual property
right laws and the procedures and standards for granting trademarks, patents, copyrights, know-how or other intellectual property rights
are evolving and may be uncertain, and we cannot assure you that courts or regulatory authorities would agree with our analysis.
If the operating entity is found to have violated
the intellectual property rights of others, it may be subject to liability for its infringement activities or may be prohibited from
using such intellectual property, and it may incur licensing fees or be forced to develop alternatives of its own. As a result, our business
and financial performance may be materially and adversely affected.
If the operating entity fails to attract,
recruit or retain its key personnel, including its executive officers, senior management and key employees, its ongoing operations and
growth could be affected.
The operating entity’s success depends
to a large extent on the efforts of its key personnel, including its executive officers, senior management and other key employees who
have valuable experience, knowledge and connection in the online advertising industry. There is no assurance that these key personnel
will not voluntarily terminate their employment with it. The loss of any of its key personnel could be detrimental to its ongoing operations.
The operating entity’s success will also depend on its ability to attract and retain qualified personnel in order to manage its
existing operations as well as its future growth. It may not be able to successfully attract, recruit or retain key personnel and this
could adversely impact our growth. Moreover, the operating entity rely on its sales and marketing team to source new advertisers for
its business growth. The operating entity has three sales and marketing personnel in total, as of the date of this prospectus, who are
responsible for pitching and soliciting advertisers to place ads with our media. If the operating entity is unable to attract, retain
and motivate its sales and marketing personnel, its business may be adversely affected.
Future acquisitions may have an adverse
effect on our ability to manage our business.
We may acquire businesses, technologies, services,
or products that are complementary to its digital advertising business. Future acquisitions may expose us to potential risks, including
risks associated with the integration of new operations, services, and personnel, unforeseen or hidden liabilities, the diversion of
resources from our existing business and technology, our potential inability to generate sufficient revenue to offset new costs, the
expenses of acquisitions, or the potential loss of or harm to relationships with both employees and customers resulting from our integration
of new businesses.
Any of the potential risks listed above could
have a material adverse effect on our ability to manage our business, revenue, and net income. We may need to raise additional debt funding
or sell additional equity securities to make such acquisitions. The raising of additional debt funding by us, if required, would result
in increased debt service obligations and could result in additional operating and financing covenants, or liens on their assets, that
would restrict our operations. The sale of additional equity securities is likely to result in additional dilution to our shareholders.
Legal claims, government investigations
or other regulatory enforcement actions could subject the operating entity to civil and criminal penalties.
The operating entity operates in the online advertising
industry in China with constantly evolving legal and regulatory frameworks. Its operations are subject to various laws and regulations,
including, but not limited to those related to advertising, employee benefits (such as social insurance and housing funds), taxation,
and the use of properties. Consequently, it is subject to risks of legal claims, government investigations or other regulatory enforcement
actions. Although it has implemented policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance with existing laws and regulations, there
can be no assurance that its employees or agents will not violate its policies and procedures. Moreover, a failure to maintain effective
control processes could lead to violations, unintentional or otherwise, of laws and regulations. Legal claims, government investigations
or regulatory enforcement actions arising out of the operating entity’s failure or alleged failure to comply with applicable laws
and regulations could subject it to civil and criminal penalties that could materially and adversely affect its product sales, reputation,
and our financial condition and operating results. In addition, the costs and other effects of defending potential and pending litigation
and administrative actions against the operating entity may be difficult to determine and could adversely affect our financial condition
and operating results.
The operating entity may be the subject
of allegations, harassment, or other detrimental conduct by third parties, which could harm its reputation and cause it to lose market
share and clients.
The operating entity may be subject to allegations
by third parties or purported former employees, negative Internet postings, and other adverse public exposure on our business, operations,
and staff compensation. It may also become the target of harassment or other detrimental conduct by third parties or disgruntled former
or current employees. Such conduct may include complaints, anonymous, or otherwise, to regulatory agencies, media, or other organizations.
The operating entity may be subject to government or regulatory investigations or other proceedings as a result of such third-party conduct
and may be required to spend significant time and incur substantial costs to address such third-party conduct, and there is no assurance
that it will be able to conclusively refute each of the allegations within a reasonable period of time, or at all. Additionally, allegations,
directly or indirectly against the operating entity, may be posted on the Internet, including social media platforms, by anyone and possibly
on an anonymous basis. Any negative publicity about the operating entity or its management can be quickly and widely disseminated. Social
media platforms and devices immediately publish the content of their users’ posts, often without filters or checks on the accuracy
of the content posted. The information posted may be inaccurate and adverse to the operating entity, and it may harm its reputation,
business, or prospects. The harm may be immediate without affording it an opportunity for redress or correction. Its reputation may be
negatively affected as a result of the public dissemination of negative and potentially false information about its business and operations,
which in turn may cause it to lose market share and clients.
The operating entity may not have sufficient
insurance coverage to cover its potential liability or losses and, as a result, our business, financial condition, results of operations
and prospects may be materially and adversely affected should any such liability or losses arise.
The operating entity faces various risks in connection
with its business and may lack adequate insurance coverage or have no relevant insurance coverage. Further, insurance products offered
by insurance companies in China may not be sufficient to cover the full scope of operations of online advertising service providers.
The operating entity currently does not have any business liability or disruption insurance to cover its operations. The operating entity
has determined that the costs of insuring against these risks on commercially reasonable terms is high. However, any uninsured business
disruptions may result in its incurring additional expenses, which could impact our business and results of operations.
We may not be able to obtain the additional
capital we need in a timely manner or on acceptable terms, or at all.
Although we believe that our anticipated cash
flows from operating activities, together with cash on hand and short-term or long-term borrowings, will be sufficient to meet its anticipated
working capital requirements and capital expenditures in the ordinary course of business for the next 12 months, there is no assurance
that further on we would not have needs for additional capital and cash resources for our growth and expansion plan. We may also need
additional cash resources in the future if we find and wish to pursue opportunities for investment, acquisition, capital expenditure
or similar actions. If we determine 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 is likely
to result in further 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. We cannot assure you that additional financing will be available in
amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. See also “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations— Liquidity and Capital Resources.”
Any failure to maintain the satisfactory
performance of the operating entity’s software, Bidding Compass, and resulting interruptions in the availability of it may adversely
impact our business, operating results and prospects.
The satisfactory performance, reliability and
availability of the operating entity’s software are important to our success. The operating entity has developed its own software,
“Bidding Compass,” based on its own marketing experience. Bidding Compass is a database collecting historical data of impressions,
click-throughs, and return on investment (“ROI”) from advertiser customers whom the operating entity has served. Bidding
Compass is at its early stage of research and development, and serves as an ancillary tool for the operating entity to improve the accuracy
of the bidding price and placement of advertisement to a target audience on media platforms, enhance ad placement efficiency, and thus
reduce costs for both the operating entity and its advertiser customers. The operating entity depends on Bidding Compass in terms of
its advertisement bidding activities. However, Bidding Compass may not function properly at all times. The operating entity may be unable
to monitor and ensure high-quality maintenance and upgrade of Bidding Compass. Any disruption to Bidding Compass causing interruptions
to it or the operating entity’s services could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Furthermore, if Bidding Compass encounters a
major system failure, computer virus attack, or other malicious or force majeure events, during the process of upgrading or replacing
software, databases or components, power outages, hardware failures, user errors, or other attempts which harm Bidding Compass’
systems, the unavailability or slowdown of Bidding Compass or certain functions, delays or errors in transaction processing, loss of
data, inability to bid for advertisement placing, and reduced gross merchandise volume may be resulted. Further, hackers, acting individually
or in coordinated groups, may also launch distributed denial of service attacks or other coordinated attacks that may cause service outages
or other interruptions in the operating entity’s business. Any of such occurrences could cause severe disruption to the operating
entity’s daily operations. If the operating entity cannot successfully execute system maintenance and repair, its operation efficiency
and our results of operations could be adversely impacted.
The Company’s plan to invest in research
and development (“R&D”) of Bidding Compass, may fail to result in a satisfactory return, or any return.
Bidding Compass’ capabilities are important
to our success, and we have been continuously investing heavily in its research and development efforts. Our R&D expenses were $30,842
and $23,842, respectively, for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. Our R&D expenses were $58,161 and $102,524, respectively,
for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The industry in which we conduct business through the operating entity is subject
to rapid technological changes and is evolving quickly in terms of technological innovation. We need to invest significant resources,
including financial and human resources, in research and development to lead technological advances in order to make its online marketing
solutions innovative and competitive in the market. We plan to invest $2 million to the R&D of Bidding Compass and recruit 20 new
R&D engineers, to improve data analytical capabilities of Bidding Compass and make it more efficient. Specifically, we plan for the
investment of $2 million to be allocated to the following capabilities: (a) enhanced connection with the media platforms’ application
programming interface to enable automatic and customized setup of advertisement bidding and placement process based on the operating
entity’s different advertiser customers and their preferred target audience portrait; (b) automated guidance and recommendations
regarding the content creation process based on data of prior projects and cases, and setting up an advertisement resource library which
improves the efficiency of content creation; and (c) effect analysis and automatic parameter setup, based on past and real-time impressions,
CTR, CVR and ROI data. There is no guarantee or assurance that the investment in the aforementioned additions of capabilities will yield
satisfactory outcomes or result in a satisfactory return. If the investment fails to result in a satisfactory return, any expected addition
of functions and improvement of efficiency may be unachieved. As a result, our significant investment may not generate corresponding
benefits and the operating entity’s operation efficiency and our results of operation could be adversely impacted.
In the event that software comparable to,
or having better capabilities than Bidding Compass is developed and available in the market, or the operating entity’s competitors
develop software comparable to, or having better capabilities than Bidding Compass, the operating entity could lose its current competitive
strengths, and our operating results could be adversely impacted.
We believe that maintaining and enhancing the
capabilities of Bidding Compass are essential to the growth and expansion of our business. For functions and capabilities of Bidding
Compass, please refer to “Business–Competitive Strengths– Information Flow–Self-developed Advertising Data Collection
Software” of this prospectus. In the event that software comparable to, or more advanced than Bidding Compass are developed and
available in the market, or the operating entity’s competitors develop software comparable to, or more advanced than Bidding Compass,
the operating entity could lose its current competitive strengths, and our operating results could be adversely impacted.
Risks Relating to this Offering and the Trading
Market
There is no public market for the Units
or the Warrants.
There is no established public trading market
for the Units or the Warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply to list the Warrants
on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system, including Nasdaq. Without an active market, the liquidity
of the Warrants will be limited.
The Warrants in this offering are speculative
in nature.
The Warrants in this offering do not confer any
rights of Class A Ordinary Share ownership on their holders, but rather merely represent the right to acquire Class A Ordinary Shares
at a fixed price. In addition, following this offering, the market value of the Warrants, if any, is uncertain and there can be no assurance
that the market value of the Warrants will equal or exceed their imputed offering price. The Warrants will be not listed or quoted for
trading on any market or exchange.
Holders of the Warrants will not have rights
of holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares until such Warrants are exercised.
Until holders of the Warrants acquire Class A
Ordinary Shares upon exercise of the Warrants, holders of the Warrants will have no rights with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares
underlying such Warrants.
Certain recent initial public offerings
of companies with public floats comparable to the anticipated public float of us have experienced extreme volatility that was seemingly
unrelated to the underlying performance of the respective company. We may experience similar volatility, which may make it difficult
for prospective investors to assess the value of our Class A Ordinary Shares.
Our Class A Ordinary Shares may be subject to
extreme volatility that is seemingly unrelated to the underlying performance of our business. Recently, companies with comparable public
floats and initial public offering sizes have experienced instances of extreme stock price run-ups followed by rapid price declines,
and such stock price volatility was seemingly unrelated to the respective company’s underlying performance. Although the specific
cause of such volatility is unclear, our anticipated public float may amplify the impact the actions taken by a few shareholders have
on the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares, which may cause our share price to deviate, potentially significantly, from a price that
better reflects the underlying performance of our business. Should our Class A Ordinary Shares experience run-ups and declines that
are seemingly unrelated to our actual or expected operating performance and financial condition or prospects, prospective investors may
have difficulty assessing the rapidly changing value of our Class A Ordinary Shares. In addition, investors of our Class A Ordinary Shares
may experience losses, which may be material, if the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares declines after this offering or if such investors
purchase our Class A Ordinary Shares prior to any price decline.
The Issuance of our Class A Ordinary
Shares in the public market as a result of this offering is likely to cause the market price of our Class A Shares to fall.
We are registering a maximum 41,666,667 Class
A Ordinary Shares and additional 6,250,000 Class A Ordinary Shares (for the Over-Allotment Option) (including the Class A Ordinary Shares
Underlying the Warrants) offered under this prospectus. Sales of substantial amounts of our Class A Ordinary Shares in the public market,
or the perception that such sales might occur, is likely to adversely affect the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares. The issuance
of new Class A Ordinary Shares is likely to result in resales of our Class A Ordinary Shares by our current shareholders concerned about
the potential ownership dilution of their holdings. Any such issuance is likely to result in substantial dilution to our existing shareholders
and will likely cause our stock price to decline.
The trading price of the ordinary shares
is likely to be volatile, which could result in substantial losses to investors.
Recently, there have been instances of extreme
stock price run-ups followed by rapid price declines and strong stock price volatility with a number of recent initial public offerings,
especially among companies with relatively smaller public floats. As a relatively small-capitalized company with relatively small
public float after this offering, we may experience greater stock price volatility, lower trading volume and less liquidity than large-capitalized companies.
In particular, our Class A Ordinary Shares may be subject to rapid and substantial price volatility, low volumes of trades and large
spreads in bid and ask prices due to factors beyond our control. Such volatility, including any stock-run up, may be unrelated to
our actual or expected operating performance and financial condition or prospects, making it difficult for prospective investors to assess
the rapidly changing value of our Class A Ordinary Shares. This may happen because of broad market and industry factors, including the
performance and fluctuation of the market prices of other companies with business operations located mainly in China that have listed
their securities in the United States. In addition to market and industry factors, the price and trading volume for the ordinary
shares may be highly volatile for factors specific to our own operations, including the following:
| ● | variations
in our revenues, earnings, cash flow; |
| ● | fluctuations
in operating metrics; |
| ● | announcements
of new investments, acquisitions, strategic partnerships or joint ventures by us or our competitors; |
| ● | announcements
of new solutions and services and expansions by us or our competitors; |
| ● | termination
or non-renewal of contracts or any other material adverse change in our relationship
with our key customers or strategic investors; |
| ● | changes
in financial estimates by securities analysts; |
| ● | detrimental
negative publicity about us, our competitors or our industry; |
| ● | additions
or departures of key personnel; |
| ● | release
of lockup or other transfer restrictions on our outstanding equity securities or sales of
additional equity securities; |
| ● | regulatory
developments affecting us or our industry; and |
| ● | potential
litigation or regulatory investigations. |
Any of these factors may result in large and
sudden changes in the volume and price at which the Class A Ordinary Shares will trade. Furthermore, the stock market in general experiences
price and volume fluctuations that are often unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies like us. These broad
market and industry fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares.
In addition, if the trading volumes of our Class
A Ordinary Shares are low, persons buying or selling in relatively small quantities may easily influence prices of our Class A Ordinary
Shares. This low volume of trades could also cause the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares to fluctuate greatly, with large percentage
changes in price occurring in any trading day session. Holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares may also not be able to readily
liquidate their investment or may be forced to sell at depressed prices due to low volume trading. If high spreads between the bid and
ask prices of our Class A Ordinary Shares exist at the time of a purchase, the stock would have to appreciate substantially on a relative
percentage basis for an investor to recoup their investment. Broad market fluctuations and general economic and political conditions
may also adversely affect the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares. As a result of this volatility, investors may experience losses
on their investment in our Class A Ordinary Shares. A decline in the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares also could adversely
affect our ability to issue additional Class A Ordinary Shares or other of our securities and our ability to obtain additional financing
in the future. No assurance can be given that an active market in our Class A Ordinary Shares will develop or be sustained. If an active
market does not develop, holders of our Class A Ordinary Shares may be unable to readily sell the shares they hold or may not be able
to sell their shares at all.
In the past, shareholders of public companies
have often brought securities class action suits against 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.
You will experience immediate and substantial
dilution in the net tangible book value of Class A Ordinary Shares purchased. The existing shareholders will likely experience substantial
dilution when the warrants issued in this offering are exercised.
The offering price of our Class A Ordinary
Shares is higher than the net tangible book value per share of our Class A Ordinary Shares. Consequently, when you purchase our Class
A Ordinary Shares in the offering, upon completion of the offering you will incur immediate dilution of $2.399 per share. See “Dilution.”
In addition, you will likely experience further dilution upon the exercise of outstanding options by the Representative.
In
addition, on the Series B Exercise Date, the exercise price of the Series A Warrant will
be adjusted to $[ ], i.e., one fifth of the per Unit offering price, and the maximum number
of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrant will be adjusted to 20,833,333 shares,
i.e., five times of the initial number of shares issuable. The 5-year Series B Warrants will
be exercisable at any time or times on or after the Series B Exercise Date at an exercise
price of $0.0001 per Class A Ordinary Share. The maximum number of shares issuable upon exercise
of the Series B Warrants will be 16,666,667 shares, obtained by subtracting (I) the sum of
(x) the aggregate number of shares sold on the Closing Date and (y) the number of Class A
Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise in full of any Pre-funded Warrants, from (II) the
quotient determined by dividing (x) the sum of (i) the aggregate purchase price paid and
(ii) the aggregate of all exercise prices paid or payable upon exercise in full of the Pre-Funded
Warrants, by (y) $[ ], which equals to 20% of the Nasdaq Minimum Price under the Nasdaq Listing
Rule 5635(d) immediately prior to effectiveness of this Registration Statement. This is likely
to result in substantial dilution to our existing shareholders and likely to cause the market
price of our Class A Ordinary Shares to decline.
If we fail to implement and maintain an
effective system of internal controls or fail to remediate the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that
have been identified, we may fail to meet our reporting obligations or be unable to accurately report our results of operations or prevent
fraud, and investor confidence and the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares may be materially and adversely affected.
In preparing our CFS
as of and for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we and our independent registered public accounting firm have identified
material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”), as defined in the standards established by
the PCAOB, and other control deficiencies.
According to the PCAOB,
a “material weakness” is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such
that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented
or detected on a timely basis. The material weaknesses identified in our ICFR included (i) a lack of staff sufficiently experienced
with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the SEC reporting experiences
in the accounting department to provide accurate information on a timely manner; (ii) a lack of the key monitoring mechanisms, such
as an internal audit department to oversee and monitor the Company’s risk management, business strategies, and financial reporting
procedures; and (iii) a lack of adequately designed and documented management review controls to properly detect and prevent certain
accounting errors and omitted disclosures in the footnotes to the CFS.
Following the identification of the material
weaknesses and control deficiencies, we have taken remedial measures, including (a) hiring an experienced Chief Financial Officer with
adequate experience with U.S. GAAP and the SEC reporting and compliance requirements; (b) providing ongoing training courses in U.S.
GAAP to existing personnel, including our Chief Financial Officer; (c) setting up the internal audit department to enhance the effectiveness
of the internal control system; and (d) implementing necessary review and controls at related levels, so all important documents and
contracts (including those of all of our subsidiaries) will be submitted to the office of our chief administrative officer for retention.
We expect that we will incur significant costs in the implementation of such measures. However, the implementation of these measures
may not fully address the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. Our failure to correct the material weaknesses
or our failure to discover and address any other material weaknesses or control deficiencies could result in inaccuracies in our financial
statements and could also impair our ability to comply with applicable financial reporting requirements and related regulatory filings
on a timely basis. As a result, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, and the trading price of our
Class A Ordinary Shares, may be materially and adversely affected. Moreover, ineffective internal control over financial reporting significantly
hinders our ability to prevent fraud.
We are subject to the reporting requirements
of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as well as rules and regulations
of Nasdaq Stock Exchange. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that we include a report of management on our internal
control over financial reporting in our annual report on Form 20-F beginning with our annual report for the fiscal year ending June 30,
2024. In addition, once we cease to be an “emerging growth company,” as such term is defined in the JOBS Act, our independent
registered public accounting firm must attest to and report on the effectiveness of our ICFR. Our management may conclude that our ICFR
is not effective. Moreover, even if our management concludes that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, our independent
registered public accounting firm, after conducting its own independent testing, may issue a report that is qualified if it is not satisfied
with our internal controls or the level at which our controls are documented, designed, operated, or reviewed, or if it interprets the
relevant requirements differently from us. In addition, since we have become a public company, our reporting obligations may place a
significant strain on our management, operational, and financial resources and systems for the foreseeable future. We may be unable to
complete our evaluation testing and any required remediation in a timely manner.
The dual class structure of our ordinary
shares has the effect of concentrating voting control with our Chief Executing Officer, and his interests may not be aligned with the
interests of our other shareholders.
We have a dual-class voting structure consisting
of Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares. Under this structure, holders of Class A Ordinary Shares are entitled to one
vote per one Class A Ordinary Share, and holders of Class B Ordinary Shares are entitled to 10 votes per one Class B Ordinary Share,
which may cause the holders of Class B Ordinary Shares to have an unbalanced, higher concentration of voting power. Immediately prior
to completion of this offering, Mr. Zhen Fan, our CEO, beneficially owns 17,270,000 Class B Ordinary Shares, representing approximately
92.20% of the voting rights in our Company. After this offering, Mr. Zhen Fan will hold 17,270,000 Class B Ordinary Shares, representing
approximately 90.02% of the voting rights in our Company. As a result, until such time as Mr. Zhen Fan’s voting power is below
50%, Mr. Zhen Fan as the controlling shareholder has substantial influence over our business, including decisions regarding mergers,
consolidations and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, election of directors, and other significant corporate actions.
Mr. Fan will have the ability to control matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors, amendment of memorandum
and articles of association and approval of certain major corporate transactions in accordance with the Cayman Companies Act. He may
take actions that are not in the best interests of us or our other shareholders. These corporate actions may be taken even if they are
opposed by our other shareholders. Further, such concentration of voting power may discourage, prevent, or delay the consummation of
change of control transactions that shareholders may consider favorable, including transactions in which shareholders might otherwise
receive a premium for their shares. Future issuances of Class B Ordinary Shares may also be dilutive to the holders of Class A Ordinary
Shares. As a result, the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares could be adversely affected.
The dual-class structure of our ordinary
shares may adversely affect the trading market for our Class A Ordinary Shares.
Several shareholder advisory firms have announced
their opposition to the use of multiple class structures. As a result, the dual class structure of our ordinary shares may cause shareholder
advisory firms to publish negative commentary about our corporate governance practices or otherwise seek to cause us to change our capital
structure. Any actions or publications by shareholder advisory firms critical of our corporate governance practices or capital structure
could also adversely affect the value of our Class A Ordinary Shares.
Since we are a “controlled company”
within the meaning of the Nasdaq listing rules, we may follow certain exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements that
could adversely affect our public shareholders.
Following this offering, our largest shareholder
will continue to own more than a majority of the voting power of our outstanding ordinary shares. Under the Nasdaq listing rules, a company
of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group, or another company is a “controlled company”
and is permitted to phase in its compliance with the independent committee requirements. Although we do not intend to rely on the “controlled
company” exemptions under the Nasdaq listing rules even if we are deemed a “controlled company,” we could elect to
rely on these exemptions in the future. If we were to elect to rely on the “controlled company” exemptions, a majority of
the members of our board of directors might not be independent directors and our nominating and corporate governance and compensation
committees might not consist entirely of independent directors. Accordingly, if we rely on the exemptions, during the period we remain
a controlled company and during any transition period following a time when we are no longer a controlled company, you would not have
the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq.
The requirements of being a public company
may strain our resources and divert management’s attention.
As a public company, we will be subject to the
reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank
Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the listing requirements of the securities exchange on which we list, and other applicable
securities rules and regulations. Despite recent reforms made possible by the JOBS Act, compliance with these rules and regulations will
nonetheless increase our legal, accounting, and financial compliance costs and investor relations and public relations costs, make some
activities more difficult, time-consuming or costly and increase demand on our systems and resources, particularly after we are no longer
an “emerging growth company.” The Exchange Act requires, among other things, that we file annual, quarterly, and current
reports with respect to our business and operating results as well as proxy statements.
As a result of disclosure of information in this
prospectus and in filings required of a public company, our business and financial condition will become more visible, which we believe
may result in threatened or actual litigation, including by competitors and other third parties. If such claims are successful, our business
and operating results could be harmed, and even if the claims do not result in litigation or are resolved in our favor, these claims,
and the time and resources necessary to resolve them, could divert the resources of our management and adversely affect our business,
brand and reputation and results of operations.
We also expect that being a public company and
these new rules and regulations will make it more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be
required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage. These factors could also make it more difficult
for us to attract and retain qualified members of our board of directors, particularly to serve on our audit committee and compensation
committee, and qualified executive officers. As of the date of this prospectus, we are still in the process of obtaining liability insurance
for our directors and officers.
Substantial future sales of our Class A
Ordinary Shares or the anticipation of future sales of our Class A Ordinary Shares in the public market could cause the price of our
Class A Ordinary Shares to decline.
Sales of substantial amounts of our Class
A Ordinary Shares in the public market after this offering, or the perception that these sales could occur, could cause the market price
of our Class A Ordinary Shares to decline. An aggregate of 14,970,000 Class A Ordinary Shares are outstanding before the consummation
of this offering and 18,582,716 Class A Ordinary Shares will be outstanding immediately after the consummation of this offering, assuming
no exercise of the Representative’s over-allotment option or the Warrants. Sales of these shares into the market could cause the
market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares to decline.
We
do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.
We currently intend to retain any future earnings
to finance the operation and expansion of our business, and we do not expect to declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future.
As a result, you may only receive a return on your investment in our Class A Ordinary Shares if the market price of our Class A Ordinary
Shares increases.
If securities or industry analysts do not
publish research or reports about our business, or if the publish a negative report regarding our Class A Ordinary Shares, the price
of our Class A Ordinary Shares and trading volume could decline.
Any trading market for our Class A Ordinary Shares
may depend in part on the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us or our business. We do not have
any control over these analysts. If one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade us, the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares would
likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of our Company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose
visibility in the financial markets, which could cause the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares and the trading volume to decline.
Our management has broad discretion to
determine how to use the funds raised in the offering and may use them in ways that may not enhance our results of operations or the
price of our Class A Ordinary Shares.
We anticipate that we will use the net proceeds
from this offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, acquiring or investing in technologies, solutions or businesses
that complement our business, and hiring experienced employees to improve our systems of internal control and compliance with U.S. GAAP
and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Our management will have significant discretion as to the use of the net proceeds from this offering
and could spend the proceeds in ways that do not improve our results of operations or enhance the market price of our Class A Ordinary
Shares.
If we cease to qualify as a foreign private
issuer, we would be required to comply fully with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act applicable to U.S. domestic issuers,
and we would incur significant additional legal, accounting and other expenses that we would not incur as a foreign private issuer.
We qualify as a foreign private issuer. As a
foreign private issuer, we are exempt from the rules under the Exchange Act prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements,
and our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained
in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we are not required under the Exchange Act to file periodic reports and financial statements
with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as United States domestic issuers, and we are not required to disclose in our periodic reports
all of the information that United States domestic issuers are required to disclose. While we currently qualify as a foreign private
issuer, we may cease to qualify as a foreign private issuer in the future, in which case we would incur significant additional expenses
that could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
Because we are a foreign private issuer
and are exempt from certain Nasdaq corporate governance standards applicable to U.S. issuers, you will have less protection than you
would have if we were a domestic issuer.
Nasdaq
listing rules require listed companies to have, among other things, a majority of its board
members be independent. As a foreign private issuer, however, we are permitted to, and we
may follow home country practice in lieu of the above requirements, or we may choose to comply
with the above requirement within one year of listing. The corporate governance practice
in our home country, the Cayman Islands, does not require a majority of our board to consist
of independent directors. Thus, although a director must act in the best interests of the
Company, it is possible that fewer board members will be exercising independent judgment
and the level of board oversight on the management of our company may decrease as a result.
In addition, Nasdaq listing rules also require U.S. domestic issuers to have a compensation
committee, a nominating and corporate governance committee composed entirely of independent
directors, and an audit committee with a minimum of three members. We, as a foreign private
issuer, are not subject to these requirements. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 generally provides
that shareholder approval is required of U.S. domestic companies listed on Nasdaq prior to
issuance (or potential issuance) of securities (i) the acquisition of the stock or assets
of another company; (ii) equity-based compensation of officers, directors, employees or consultants;
(iii) a change of control; and (iv) transactions other than public offerings. Notwithstanding
this general requirement, Nasdaq Listing Rule 5615(a)(3)(A) permits foreign private issuers
to follow their home country practice rather than these shareholder approval requirements.
The Cayman Islands do not require shareholder approval prior to any of the foregoing types
of issuances. We, therefore, are not required to obtain such shareholder approval prior to
entering into a transaction with the potential to issue securities as described above. Specifically,
our board of directors has elected to follow our home country rules and be exempt from the
requirements to obtain shareholder approval for (i) the acquisition of the stock or assets
of another company; (ii) equity-based compensation of officers, directors, employees or consultants;
(iii) a change of control; and (iv) transactions other than public offerings.
If we cannot continue to satisfy the continued
listing requirements and other rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market, our securities may be delisted, which could negatively impact the
price of our securities and your ability to sell them.
Our Class A Ordinary Shares are listed on the
Nasdaq Capital Market.
In order to maintain our listing on the Nasdaq
Capital Market, we are required to comply with certain rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market, including those regarding minimum stockholders’
equity, minimum share price, minimum market value of publicly held shares, and various additional requirements. We may not be able to
continue to satisfy these requirements and applicable rules. If we are unable to satisfy the Nasdaq Capital Market criteria for maintaining
our listing, our securities could be subject to delisting.
If the Nasdaq Capital Market subsequently delists
our securities from trading, we could face significant consequences, including:
|
● |
a limited availability
for market quotations for our securities; |
|
|
|
|
● |
reduced liquidity with
respect to our securities; |
|
● |
a determination that our
Class A Ordinary Shares are a “penny stock,” which will require brokers trading in our Class A Ordinary Shares to adhere
to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our Class
A Ordinary Shares; |
|
|
|
|
● |
limited amount of news
and analyst coverage; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
a decreased ability to
issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future. |
Anti-takeover provisions in our amended
and restated articles of association may discourage, delay, or prevent a change in control.
Some provisions of our amended and restated articles
of association may discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our Company or management that shareholders may consider favorable,
including, among other things, the following:
|
● |
provisions that authorize
our board of directors to issue shares with preferred, deferred or other special rights or restrictions without any further vote
or action by our shareholders; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
provisions that restrict
the ability of our shareholders to call shareholder meetings. |
Our board of directors may decline to register
transfers of Class A Ordinary Shares in certain circumstances.
Our board of directors may, in its sole discretion,
decline to register any transfer of any Class A Ordinary Share which is not fully paid up or on which we have a lien. Our directors may
also decline to register any transfer of any Ordinary Share unless (i) the instrument of transfer is lodged with us, accompanied by the
certificate for the shares to which it relates and such other evidence as our board of directors may reasonably require to show the right
of the transferor to make the transfer; (ii) the instrument of transfer is in respect of only one class of shares; (iii) the instrument
of transfer is properly stamped, if required; (iv) in the case of a transfer to joint holders, the number of joint holders to whom the
share is to be transferred does not exceed four; (v) the shares transferred are free of any lien in favor of us; or (vi) a fee of such
maximum sum as the Nasdaq Capital Market may determine to be payable, or such lesser sum as our board of directors may from time to time
require, is paid to us in respect thereof.
If our directors refuse to register a transfer
they shall, within three months after the date on which the instrument of transfer was lodged, send to each of the transferor and the
transferee notice of such refusal. The registration of transfers may, on 14 days’ notice being given by advertisement in one or
more newspapers or by electronic means, be suspended and the register closed at such times and for such periods as our board of directors
may from time to time determine, provided, however, that the registration of transfers shall not be suspended nor the register closed
for more than 30 days in any year.
This, however, is unlikely to affect market transactions
of the Class A Ordinary Shares purchased by investors in the public offering. Once the Class A Ordinary Shares have been listed, the
legal title to such Class A Ordinary Shares and the registration details of those Class A Ordinary Shares in the Company’s register
of members will remain with the Depository Trust Company. All market transactions with respect to those Class A Ordinary Shares will
then be carried out without the need for any kind of registration by the directors, as the market transactions will all be conducted
through the Depository Trust Company systems.
We are an “emerging growth company”
within the meaning of the Securities Act, and if we take advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to emerging
growth companies, this will make it more difficult to compare our performance with other public companies.
We are an “emerging growth company”
within the meaning of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act. Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies
from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not
had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act)
are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt
out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election
to opt out is irrevocable. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued
or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new
or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This will make comparison of our financial statements
with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the
extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Because we are an “emerging growth
company,” we may not be subject to requirements that other public companies are subject to, which could affect investor confidence
in us and our Class A Ordinary Shares.
For as long as we remain an “emerging growth
company,” as defined in the JOBS Act, we will elect to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements
that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies,” including not being required to comply
with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive
compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of shareholder approval of any golden
parachute payments not previously approved. Because of these lessened regulatory requirements, our shareholders would be left without
information or rights available to shareholders of more mature companies. If some investors find our Class A Ordinary Shares less attractive
as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our Class A Ordinary Shares and our share price may be more volatile. See
“Prospectus Summary—Implications of Our Being an ‘Emerging Growth Company.’”
The laws of the Cayman Islands may not
provide our shareholders with benefits comparable to those provided to shareholders of corporations incorporated in the United States.
We are an exempted company incorporated under
the laws of the Cayman Islands. Our corporate affairs are governed by our amended and restated memorandum of association and articles
of association, the Cayman Companies Act and the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take action against
the directors, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary duties of our directors to us under Cayman Islands law are to a large
extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited
judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands, as well as from the common law of England, the decisions of whose courts are of persuasive
authority, but are not binding, on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary duties of our directors
under Cayman Islands law are not as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in
the United States. It may be difficult or impossible for you to bring an action against us or against these individuals in the United
States in the event that you believe that your rights have been infringed under the U.S. federal securities laws or otherwise. Even if
you are successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws of the Cayman Islands and of the PRC may render you unable to enforce
a judgment against our assets or the assets of our directors and officers. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a different body of
securities laws than the United States. Some U.S. states, such as Delaware, have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies
of corporate law than the Cayman Islands. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholder derivative
action in a federal court of the United States. There is no statutory recognition in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the
United States, although the courts of the Cayman Islands will in certain circumstances recognize and enforce a non-penal judgment of
a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits.
Shareholders of Cayman Islands exempted companies
like us have no general rights under Cayman Islands law to inspect corporate records or to obtain copies of lists of shareholders of
these companies. Our directors have discretion under our amended and restated articles of association to determine whether or not, and
under what conditions, our corporate records may be inspected by our shareholders, but are not obliged to make them available to our
shareholders. This may make it more difficult for you to obtain the information needed to establish any facts necessary for a shareholder
motion or to solicit proxies from other shareholders in connection with a proxy contest.
Certain
corporate governance practices in the Cayman Islands, which is our home country, differ significantly
from requirements for companies incorporated in other jurisdictions such as the United States.
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 generally provides that shareholder approval is required of U.S.
domestic companies listed on Nasdaq prior to issuance (or potential issuance) of securities
(i) the acquisition of the stock or assets of another company; (ii) equity-based compensation
of officers, directors, employees or consultants; (iii) a change of control; and (iv) transactions
other than public offerings. Notwithstanding this general requirement, Nasdaq Listing Rule
5615(a)(3)(A) permits foreign private issuers to follow their home country practice rather
than these shareholder approval requirements. The Cayman Islands do not require shareholder
approval prior to any of the foregoing types of issuances. We, therefore, are not required
to obtain such shareholder approval prior to entering into a transaction with the potential
to issue securities as described above. Specifically, our board of directors has elected
to follow our home country rules and be exempt from the requirements to obtain shareholder
approval for (i) the acquisition of the stock or assets of another company; (ii) equity-based
compensation of officers, directors, employees or consultants; (iii) a change of control;
and (iv) transactions other than public offerings. Therefore, our shareholders may be afforded
less protection than they otherwise would under rules and regulations applicable to U.S.
domestic issuers.
As a result of all of the above, our public shareholders
may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by management, members of the board of directors
or controlling shareholders than they would as public shareholders of a company incorporated in the United States.
You may be unable to present proposals
before annual general meetings or extraordinary general meetings not called by shareholders.
Cayman Islands law provides shareholders with
only limited rights to requisition a general meeting, and does not provide shareholders with any right to put any proposal before a general
meeting. These rights, however, may be provided in a company’s articles of association. Our amended and restated articles of association
allow our shareholders holding shares which carry in aggregate not less than 10% of all votes attaching to all of our issued and outstanding
shares, to requisition a general meeting of our shareholders, in which case our directors are obliged to call such meeting. Advance notice
of at least seven calendar days is required for the convening of any general meeting of our shareholders. A quorum required for a meeting
of shareholders consists of at least one shareholder, present in person or by proxy, holding at least a majority of the paid up voting
share capital of the Company.
Certain judgments obtained against us by
our shareholders may not be enforceable.
We are an exempted company limited by shares
incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands. We conduct our operations outside the United States and substantially all of our assets
are located outside the United States. In addition, all of our directors and executive officers named in this prospectus reside outside
the United States, and most of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for
you to bring an action against us or against them in the United States in the event that you believe that your rights have been infringed
under the U.S. federal securities laws or otherwise. Even if you are successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws of the Cayman
Islands or other relevant jurisdictions may render you unable to enforce a judgment against our assets or the assets of our directors
and officers.
If we are classified as a passive foreign
investment company, United States taxpayers who own our Class A Ordinary Shares may have adverse United States federal income tax consequences.
A non-U.S. corporation such as ourselves will
be classified as a passive foreign investment company, which is known as a PFIC, for any taxable year if, for such year, either:
|
● |
at least 75% of our gross
income for the year is passive income; or |
|
|
|
|
● |
the average percentage
of our assets (determined at the end of each quarter) during the taxable year which produce passive income or which are held for
the production of passive income is at least 50%. |
Passive income generally includes dividends,
interest, rents and royalties (other than rents or royalties derived from the active conduct of a trade or business), and gains from
the disposition of passive assets.
If we are determined to be a PFIC for any taxable
year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a U.S. taxpayer who holds our Class A Ordinary Shares, the U.S. taxpayer
may be subject to increased U.S. federal income tax liability and may be subject to additional reporting requirements.
Depending on the amount of cash we raise in this
offering, together with any other assets held for the production of passive income, it is possible that, for our 2024 taxable year or
for any subsequent year, more than 50% of our assets may be assets which produce passive income, in which case we would be deemed a PFIC,
which could have adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences for U.S. taxpayers who are shareholders. We will make this determination
following the end of any particular tax year.
For purposes of the PFIC analysis, in general,
a non-U.S. corporation is deemed to own its pro rata share of the gross income and assets of any entity in which it is considered to
own at least 25% of the equity by value.
For a more detailed discussion of the application
of the PFIC rules to us and the consequences to U.S. taxpayers if we were or are determined to be a PFIC, see “Material Income
Tax Considerations—United States Federal Income Taxation—PFIC.”
Shares eligible for future sale may adversely
affect the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares as the future sale of a substantial amount of outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares
in the public marketplace could reduce the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares.
The market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares
could decline as a result of sales of substantial amounts of our shares in the public market, or the perception that these sales could
occur. In addition, these factors could make it more difficult for us to raise funds through future offerings of our Class A Ordinary
Shares. All of the Class A Ordinary Shares sold in the offering will be freely transferable without restriction or further registration
under the Securities Act. The remaining Class A Ordinary Shares will be “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144.
These Class A Ordinary Shares may be sold without registration under the Securities Act to the extent permitted by Rule 144 or other
exemptions under the Securities Act. See “Shares Eligible for Future Sale” of this prospectus.
Our shareholders may be held liable for
claims by third parties against us to the extent of distributions received by them upon redemption of their shares.
If we are forced to enter into an insolvency
liquidation, any distributions received by shareholders could be viewed as an unlawful payment if it was proved that immediately following
the date on which the distribution was made, we were unable to pay our debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business. As
a result, a liquidator could seek to recover some or all amounts received by our shareholders. Furthermore, our directors may be viewed
as having breached their fiduciary duties to us or our creditors and/or may have acted in bad faith, thereby exposing themselves and
our Company to claims, by paying public shareholders from the trust account prior to addressing the claims of creditors. We cannot assure
you that claims will not be brought against us for these reasons. We and our directors and officers who knowingly and willfully authorized
or permitted any distribution to be paid out of our share premium account* in violation of the Cayman Companies Act, while we were unable
to pay our debts as they fall due in the ordinary course of business would be guilty of an offence and may be liable for a monetary fine
and to imprisonment for five years in the Cayman Islands.
| * | Where
a company issues shares at a premium (i.e., above the par value of the shares), whether for
cash or otherwise, a sum equal to the aggregate amount or value of the premiums on those
shares shall be transferred to an account, to be called the “share premium account.” |
DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS
This prospectus contains forward-looking statements
that reflect our current expectations and views of future events, all of which are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking
statements give our current expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not
relate strictly to historical or current facts. You can find many (but not all) of these statements by the use of words such as “approximates,”
“believes,” “hopes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “projects,”
“intends,” “plans,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “may,”

Industry Data and Forecasts
This prospectus contains data related to the
online marketing and digital advertising industry in China. This industry data includes projections that are based on a number of assumptions
which have been derived from industry and government sources which we believe to be reasonable. The online marketing and digital advertising
industry may not grow at the rate projected by industry data, or at all. The failure of the industries to grow as anticipated is likely
to have a material adverse effect on our business and the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares. In addition, the rapidly changing
nature of the online marketing and digital advertising industry subjects any projections or estimates relating to the growth prospects
or future condition of our industries to significant uncertainties. Furthermore, if any one or more of the assumptions underlying the
industry data turns out to be incorrect, actual results may, and are likely to, differ from the projections based on these assumptions.
ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL
LIABILITIES
We are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman
Islands as an exempted company limited by shares and our affairs are governed by our amended and restated memorandum and articles of
association and the Cayman Companies Act, and the common law of the Cayman Islands. We are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman
Islands because of certain benefits associated with being a Cayman Islands company, such as political and economic stability, an effective
judicial system, a favorable tax system, the absence of foreign exchange control or currency restrictions, and the availability of professional
and support services. The Cayman Islands, however, has a less developed body of securities laws as compared to the United States and
provides significantly less protection for investors than the United States. Additionally, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing
to sue in the Federal courts of the United States.
Substantially all of our assets are located in
China. In addition, all of our directors and officers are nationals or residents of China and all or a substantial portion of their assets
are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the United
States upon us or these persons, or to enforce against us or them judgments obtained in United States courts, including judgments predicated
upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States.
We have appointed Cogency Global Inc. as our
agent to receive service of process with respect to any action brought against us in the United States District Court for the Southern
District of New York under the federal securities laws of the United States or of any state in the United States or any action brought
against us in the Supreme Court of the State of New York in the County of New York under the securities laws of the State of New York.
We have been advised by Ogier, our counsel as
to Cayman Islands law, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the Cayman Islands would:
|
● |
recognize or enforce judgments
of U.S. courts obtained against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of securities
laws of the United States or any state in the United States; or |
|
● |
entertain original actions
brought in each respective jurisdiction against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States
or any state in the United States. |
We have also been advised by Ogier that it is
uncertain whether the courts of the Cayman Islands will allow shareholders of our company to originate actions in the Cayman Islands
based upon securities laws of the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty with regard to Cayman Islands law related to
whether a judgment obtained from the U.S. courts under civil liability provisions of U.S. securities laws will be determined
by the courts of the Cayman Islands as penal or punitive in nature. If such a determination is made, the courts of the Cayman Islands
will not recognize or enforce the judgment against a Cayman Islands company, such as our Company. As the courts of the Cayman Islands
have yet to rule on making such a determination in relation to judgments obtained from U.S. courts under civil liability provisions
of U.S. securities laws, it is uncertain whether such judgments would be enforceable in the Cayman Islands. Ogier has further advised
us that although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, the courts
of the Cayman Islands will recognize and enforce a foreign judgement, without any re-examination or re-litigation of matters adjudicated
upon, provided such judgment:
|
(a) |
is given by a foreign court
of competent jurisdiction; |
|
(b) |
imposes on the judgment
debtor a liability to pay a liquidated sum for which the judgment has been given; |
|
(d) |
is not in respect of taxes,
a fine or a penalty; |
|
(e) |
was not obtained by fraud;
and |
|
(f) |
is not of a kind the enforcement
of which is contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands. |
As a result of all of the above, public shareholders
may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by management, members of the board of directors
or controlling shareholders than they would as public shareholders of a U.S. company.
Our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law Firm, has further
advised us that the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are regulated under the PRC Civil Procedure Law. PRC courts may
recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedure Law based either on treaties between
China and the country where the judgment is made or on reciprocity between jurisdictions. There are no treaties or other forms of reciprocity
between China and the United States for the mutual recognition and enforcement of court judgments. In addition, under PRC law, PRC courts
will not enforce a foreign judgment against us or our officers and directors if the court decides that such judgment violates the basic
principles of PRC law or national sovereignty, security or public interest, thus making the recognition and enforcement of a U.S. court
judgment in China difficult.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We
estimate that we will receive net proceeds from this offering of approximately $11,417,064,
assuming the sales of all of the Units we are offering and no exercise of the Warrants included
in the Units, after deducting the underwriters’ fees and non-accountable expense allowance
and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
We plan to use the net proceeds we receive from this offering for
the following purposes:
| ● | approximately
60% for working capital and general corporate purposes, including sales and marketing activities
to expand the operating entity’s market share; |
| ● | approximately
30% for acquiring or investing in technologies, solutions, or businesses that could raise
the advertiser customer return rate of the operating entity and improve its data analysis
capability; specifically, we are seeking to acquire: |
| 1) | technologies
which could be complimentary to Bidding Compass’ current functions, see “Risk
Factors— Risks Related to the Operating Entity’s Business and Industry—The
operating entity’s plan to invest in R&D of Bidding Compass, may fail to result
in a satisfactory return, or any return;” |
| 2) | online
marketing solutions or businesses specifically focusing on any geographical locations in
China that the Company believes have emerging business opportunities suitable for the deployment
of more resources; and |
| 3) | online
marketing solutions or businesses that could create synergies with the operating entity;
for example, multi-channel network (“MCN”) companies and livestreaming e-commerce
companies that focus on the healthcare industry, |
although we have not identified any
particular target for acquisition and investment as of the date of this prospectus; and
| ● | approximately
10% for hiring experienced employees to improve our systems of internal control and compliance
with U.S. GAAP and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. |
The foregoing represents our current intentions
based upon our present plans and business conditions to use and allocate the net proceeds of this offering. Our management, however,
will have significant flexibility and discretion to apply the net proceeds of this offering. If an unforeseen event occurs or business
conditions change, we may use the proceeds of this offering differently than as described in this prospectus. See “Risk Factors—Risks
Relating to this Offering and the Trading Market—Our management has broad discretion to determine how to use the funds raised in
the offering and may use them in ways that may not enhance our results of operations or the price of our Class A Ordinary Shares.”
To the extent that the net proceeds we receive from this offering are not immediately used for the above purposes, we intend to invest
our net proceeds in short-term, interest-bearing bank deposits or debt instruments.
In using the proceeds of this offering, we are
permitted under PRC laws and regulations to utilize the proceeds from this offering to fund Haoxi Beijing by making loans or additional
capital contributions, subject to applicable government registration and approval requirements. We cannot assure you that we will be
able to obtain these government registrations or approvals on a timely basis, if at all. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related
to Doing Business in China—PRC regulations of loans to, and direct investment in, PRC entities by offshore holding companies and
governmental control of currency conversion may limit our ability to use the proceeds of this offering to make loans or additional capital
contributions to Haoxi Beijing, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.”
DIVIDEND POLICY
Since our inception,
we have not declared or paid cash dividends on our Class A Ordinary Shares. Any decision to pay dividends in the future will be subject
to a number of factors, including our financial condition, results of operations, the level of our retained earnings, capital demands,
general business conditions, and other factors our board of directors may deem relevant. We currently intend to retain most, if not all,
of our available funds and any future earnings after this offering to fund the operation, development, and growth of our business, and,
as a result, we do not expect to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, we cannot give any assurance that any dividends
may be declared and paid in the future.
Under Cayman Islands law, a Cayman Islands company
may pay a dividend on its shares out of either profit or share premium, provided that in no circumstances may a dividend be paid if this
would result in the company being unable to pay its debts due in the ordinary course of business.
If we determine to pay dividends on any of our
Class A Ordinary Shares in the future, as a holding company, we will be dependent on receipt of funds from Haoxi Beijing. As a result,
in the event that Haoxi Beijing incurs debt on its own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict any such
entity’s ability to pay dividends or make other distributions to us.
Current PRC regulations permit Haoxi Beijing
to pay dividends to Haoxi HK only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards
and regulations. In addition, each of our subsidiaries in China is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each year,
if any, to fund a statutory reserve until such reserve reaches 50% of its registered capital. Each of such entity in China is also required
to further set aside a portion of its after-tax profits to fund the employee welfare fund, although the amount to be set aside, if any,
is determined at the discretion of its board of directors. Although the statutory reserves can be used, among other ways, to increase
the registered capital and eliminate future losses in excess of retained earnings of the respective companies, the reserve funds are
not distributable as cash dividends except in the event of liquidation.
The PRC government also imposes controls on the
conversion of RMB into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of the PRC. Therefore, we may experience difficulties
in complying with the administrative requirements necessary to obtain and remit foreign currency for the payment of dividends from our
profits, if any. Furthermore, if our subsidiaries and affiliates in the PRC incur debt on their own in the future, the instruments governing
the debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends or make other payments. If we or our subsidiaries are unable to receive all of the
revenue from our operations, we may be unable to pay dividends on our Ordinary Shares.
Cash dividends, if any, on our Class A Ordinary
Shares will be paid in U.S. dollars. Haoxi Beijing is required to withhold any sum from its dividends for tax withholding purposes. See
“Material Income Tax Considerations—PRC Enterprise Taxation.”

Reflects the sale of Class A Ordinary Shares in this offering at an
offering price of $[ ] per share, and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
Additional paid-in capital reflects the net proceeds we expect to receive, after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering
expenses payable by us. We estimate that such net proceeds will be approximately $11,417,064. The net proceeds of $11,417,064 are calculated
as follows: $12,499,998 gross offering proceeds, less underwriting discounts and commissions of $875,000, accountable expense of $120,000,
and other estimated offering expenses of $87,934. The as adjusted total equity of $21,878,057 is the sum of the net proceeds of $11,417,064
and the equity of $10,460,993. |

The pro forma as adjusted
information discussed above is illustrative only. Our additional paid-in capital, total shareholders’ equity and total capitalization
following the completion of this offering are subject to adjustment based on the actual public offering price and other terms of
this offering determined at pricing. |
Each
$1.00 increase (decrease) in the estimate public offering price of $[ ] per Unit, would increase
(decrease) each of cash and cash equivalents, additional paid-in capital, total shareholders’
equity, and total capitalization by approximately $3,875,000, assuming the number of Units
offered by us, as set forth on the front cover of this prospectus, remains the same, and
after deducting the underwriters’ discounts, non-accountable expense allowance, and
estimated offering expenses payable by us.
DILUTION
If you invest in the Units being offered in this
offering, assuming no value is attributed to the related Warrants, your ownership interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference
between the public offering price per share of our Class A Ordinary Shares included in the Units and our pro forma as adjusted net tangible
book value per Class A Ordinary Share immediately after this offering. Dilution results from the fact that the public offering price
per Class A Ordinary Share included in Units is substantially in excess of the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per Class
A Ordinary Share attributable to the existing shareholders for our presently outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares.
Our
net tangible book value as of December 31, 2023, was $1,134,298, or $0.038 per Ordinary Share.
Net tangible book value is the amount of our total consolidated tangible assets, less the
amount of our total consolidated liabilities. Dilution is determined by subtracting the net
tangible book value per Class A Ordinary Share (as adjusted for the offering) from the IPO
price per Class A Ordinary Share and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts
and the estimated offering expenses payable by us.
After giving effect to the issuance and sales
of 2,760,000 Class A Ordinary Shares, including 360,000 Class A Ordinary Shares as over-allotment shares, at $4.00 per share on a firm
commitment basis, for net proceeds of approximately $8,739,224, after deducting underwriting discounts and other related expenses, our
pro forma net tangible book value as of December 31, 2023 would have been $0.324 per ordinary share (both Class A and Class B Ordinary
Share).
After
giving effect to the issuance and sale of 4,166,666 Units offered in this offering based
on an estimate public offering price of $[ ] per Unit, after deduction of
the estimated underwriting discounts and the estimated offering expenses payable by us and
assuming the sale of all of the Units we are offering and no exercise of the Warrants included
in the Units, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of December 31, 2023,
would have been approximately $21,878,057 or $0.601 per outstanding Ordinary Share. This
represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $0.276 per Ordinary Share
to the existing shareholders, and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of $2.399
per Ordinary Share to investors purchasing Units in this offering. The pro forma as adjusted
net tangible book value of $21,878,057 at December 31, 2023 is the sum of actual net tangible
book value of $1,134,298 as of December 31, 2023, net offering proceeds of approximately
$8,739,224 from the issuance and sales of 2,760,000 Class A Ordinary Shares, net offering
proceeds of $11,417,064 in this offering, and the deferred listing costs of $587,471. The
actual net tangible book value of $1,134,298 as of December 31, 2023 is calculated by subtracting
the deferred listing costs of $587,471 at December 31, 2023 from the total shareholders’
equity of $1,721,769 at December 31, 2023.
The as adjusted information discussed above is
illustrative only.

discounts of $875,000 and accountable expense of $120,000 and other estimated offering expenses of approximately $87,934. |
A
$1.00 increase in the estimate public offering price of $[ ] per Unit would
increase our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of December 31, 2023 after
this offering, assuming the sale of all of the Units we are offering and no exercise of the
Warrants included in the Units, by approximately $0.106 per Class A Ordinary Share, and would
increase dilution to new investors by approximately $0.894 per Class A Ordinary Share, assuming
that the number of Units offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus,
remains the same, and after deducting the estimated underwriter discounts and offering expenses
payable by us.
A $1.00 decrease in the estimate public offering
price of $[ ] per Unit would decrease our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of December 31, 2023 after
this offering, assuming the sale of all of the Units we are offering and no exercise of the Warrants included in the Units, by approximately
$0.106 per Class A Ordinary Share, and would decrease dilution to new investors by approximately $0.894 per Class A Ordinary Share, assuming
that the number of Units offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting the
estimated underwriter discounts and offering expenses payable by us.
The pro forma as adjusted information as discussed
above is illustrative only. Our net tangible book value following the completion of this offering is subject to adjustment based on the
actual public offering price of our Units and other terms of this offering determined at the pricing.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION
AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion and
analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the section entitled “Selected Consolidated Financial
Data” and our CFS and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion contains forward-looking statements
that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results and the timing of selected events could differ materially from those anticipated
in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere
in this prospectus.
Overview
We are a holding company incorporated in the
Cayman Islands. As a holding company with no substantive operations of our own, we conduct our operations primarily through the operating
entity, which is an online marketing solution provider based in China. The operating entity is dedicated to helping its advertiser clients
manage their online marketing activities to achieve their business goals. The operating entity advises advertisers on online marketing
strategies, offer value-added advertising optimization services and facilitate the deployment of online ads through the form of short
video ads.
During the six months ended December 31, 2023
and 2022, the operating entity served 338 and 183 advertiser customers. Our revenue from online marketing and digital advertising services
increased by $14,341,078 from the six months ended December 31, 2022 to the six months ended December 31, 2023. Our net income was $760,198
for the six months ended December 31, 2023, which increased by approximately $0.31 million from the six months ended December 31, 2022.
Our net revenue was $16.16 million and $28.23
million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively. Our net income was $969,752 for the fiscal year ended June 30,
2023, which increased by approximately $0.72 million from the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.
Major Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
Availability and dynamics of user traffic
The operating entity currently relies on ByteDance’s
media platforms to acquire user traffic for its advertiser customers during the historical reporting periods. If it fails to maintain
its business relationship with ByteDance or ByteDance loses its leading market position or popularity, our business, financial condition
and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected, especially if the operating entity is unable to obtain sufficient
user traffic from any replacement platform.
Customer Acquisition
and Retention
The operating entity’s
ability to increase the number of healthcare industry advertiser customers largely depends on its ability to provide one-stop comprehensive
online marketing services to improve their ROI in online advertisements, especially its ability to offer media platform resources and
reliable service capabilities. It had a customer base with 183 and 338 advertiser clients for the six months ended December 31, 2022
and 2023, respectively. It had 243 and 393 advertiser clients for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively.
The operating entity’s
future sales and marketing efforts will relate to customer acquisition and retention, and general marketing. It intends to keep allocating
significant resources to increase the advertisers’ return on ad expenditure.
Regulatory Environment
The operating entity’s business is subject
to complex and evolving laws and regulations in China. Many of these laws and regulations are relatively new and subject to changes and
uncertain interpretation, and could result in claims, changes to its business practices, monetary penalties, increased cost of operations,
declines in user growth or engagement, or other harm to its business.
COVID-19 Pandemic’s Impact on the Operating
Entity’s Results of Operations
The COVID-19 pandemic resurgence has affected
the operating entity’s business operations in the following manner.
From the middle of 2022 to December 2022, the
economy in China slowed down when large-scale COVID-19 resurgences happened in multiple metropolitan areas of China and restrictive measures
were widely taken. Several types of COVID-19 variants have emerged in different parts of the world, as well as China. Restrictions and
temporary lockdowns had been re-imposed in certain cities in China to combat the outbreaks of COVID-19. As result, our average revenue
per customer during the six months ended December 31, 2022 was lower compared to that for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
However, because more people opted to use various online services since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an increase
in the number of the operating entity’s advertiser customers for the six months ended December 31, 2022 compared to that for the
six months ended December 31, 2021.
Since December 2022, many of the restrictive
policies previously adopted by the Chinese government at various levels to control the spread of COVID-19 have been revoked or replaced
with more flexible measures. As a result, Internet users have more chances to purchase the healthcare services they are interested in
in person after watching the online advertisements of our advertiser customers. We believe this has incentivized our advertiser customers
to invest more of their budget in placing online advertisements. While our average revenue per customer during the six months ended December
31, 2022 was negatively impacted by COVID-19 and relevant restrictive measures, our revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023
overall were not materially affected by COVID-19. The average revenue per customer has increased from $66,489 for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2022 to $71,830 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. In addition, the number of advertiser customers that the operating
entity served has increased from 243 customers during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, to 393 customers during the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2023, a 61.7% increase. As a result, our revenues generated from online marketing and digital advertising services increased
by $12,072,284 from the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. For the six months ended December 31,
2023, our revenues were not affected by COVID-19, and have increased by $14,341,078 from the six months ended December 31, 2022. Our
net income has increased by $313,152 from the six months ended December 31, 2022, to the six months ended December 31, 2023.
However, any resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic
could negatively affect the execution of customer contracts and the collection of customer payments. The extent of any future impact
of the COVID-19 pandemic on the operating entity’s business is still uncertain and cannot be predicted as of the date of this prospectus.
Any potential impact to its operating results will depend, to a large extent, on future developments and new information that may emerge
regarding the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and the actions taken by government authorities to contain the spread of
the COVID-19 pandemic, almost all of which are beyond our control.

Revenue
We generate revenue from providing one-stop online
marketing solutions, including traffic acquisition from mainstream online media platforms, content production, data analysis and advertising
campaign optimization, to advertisers through the operating entity. Net revenue was $9.16 million and $23.50 million for the six months
ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively. The increase in our revenue is mainly attributable to the increase in the number of clients
we served, which increased from 183 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to 338 in the comparative period ended December 31,2023,
as well as an increase in the average revenue per client from $50,070 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $69,538 for the six
months ended December 31, 2023. The higher average revenue per client in the current year is mainly attributable to higher advertisement
expenditure by our health care industry clients.
The average revenue per client under our advertisement
pricing model consists of two components: 1) the average per unit-of-service price, which is the average price per click-through that
we charge our advertiser customers, and 2) the quantity of services, which is actual number of click-throughs with respect to each advertiser.
The following tables shows the components that impact our revenue and their correlation.

The increase in the revenue per click-through
was higher in the current period mainly due to the increasing popularity of ByteDance media platforms, which we mainly collaborated with
through ByteDance’s subsidiary, Ocean Engine. For the six months ended December 31, 2023, a growing number of our advertiser clients
have chosen to place ads on ByteDance’s media platforms. In addition, the costs we paid to Ocean Engine to acquire user traffic
for our clients’ ads raised, leading to an increase in our service charge.
Cost of revenue
Our cost of revenue consists primarily of the
purchase of online traffic from third-party media platforms after deducting rebates, and salaries and benefits for business operation
staff. The cost of revenue increased by $13.87 million or 164%, from $8.43 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $22.30
million for the six months ended December 31, 2023. The increase in cost of revenue was basically in line with the increase in revenue.
Gross profit and gross margin
Our gross profit increased by $0.47 million,
from $0.73 million for the six months ended December 31, 2022 to $1.20 million for the six months ended December 31, 2023. Gross profit
as a percentage of revenue (“profit margin”) was 5.11% for the six months ended December 31, 2023, lower than 7.97% for the
six months ended December 31, 2022, mainly due to the fierce market competition. The Company needed to provide rebates to some customers,
in order to maintain and expand the customer base.
Selling and marketing expenses
Our selling and marketing expenses primarily
consist of payroll costs and office related expenses. Selling and marketing expenses increased by 44% from $14,312 in the six months
ended December 31,2022 to $20,564 in the six months ended December 31, 2023. It was mainly due to an increase in bonuses paid to our
sales staff, which were calculated based on sales performance.
General and administrative expenses
Our general and administrative expenses mainly
consist of salaries and bonuses, as well as administrative related expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by $132,326
or 66%, from $199,284 for six months ended December 31, 2022 to $331,610 for six months ended December 31, 2023. The increase was mainly
attributable to an increase in salary and bonuses of the management team, professional fees in connection with our IPO.
Research and development expenses
Our R&D expenses mainly consist of salaries
and benefits of our R&D staff developing Bidding Compass, our online ads bidding analysis software. R&D expenses increased by
$7,000, or 29%, from $23,842 for six months ended December 31, 2022 to $30,842 for six months ended December 31, 2023. It was mainly
attributable to the increase in salaries of R&D staff.
Income taxes
We had income taxes of $39,001 and $40,030 for
six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively.
Net (loss)/income
As a result of the foregoing, we had net income
of $0.45 million and $0.76 million for six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2023, we had $1,112,634 in
cash and cash equivalents which declined by $90,569 from $1,203,203 at June 30, 2023. Our principal sources of liquidity have been proceeds
from operations. As reflected in the CFS, we had a net shareholders’ equity of $1.72 million as of December 31, 2023, and $0.30
million of cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended December 31, 2023. We completed our IPO in January 2024 and
raised gross proceeds of $9.6 million. As such, we believe that the current cash and cash equivalents and the anticipated cash flows
from financings will be sufficient to meet the anticipated working capital requirements and expenditures for the next 12 months.
We continue to explore opportunities to grow
our business. However, we are growing our business scale on a fast track that necessitates additional working capital to finance our
growth, so we expect that negative cashflows from operations will occur for the foreseeable future. While we believe that we have sufficient
cash for the next 12 months from the date the financial statements were issued, if we are unable to grow our business as expected, it
will become even more difficult for us to sustain a sufficient source of cash to cover our operating costs. We plan to raise additional
capital, including among others, obtaining debt financing, to support our future operation. There can be no assurance, however, that
we will be able to obtain additional financing on terms acceptable to us, in a timely manner, or at all (see “Risk Factors—Risks
Related to the Operating Entity’s Business and Industry— We may not be able to obtain the additional capital we need in a
timely manner or on acceptable terms, or at all.”).
As a Cayman exempted and offshore holding company,
we are permitted under PRC laws and regulations to provide funding to our wholly foreign-owned subsidiary in China only through loans
or capital contributions, subject to the approval of government authorities and limits on the amount of capital contributions and loans.
In addition, WFOE may provide Renminbi funding to the operating entity through capital injection or loans.
See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to
Doing Business in China—PRC regulations of loans to, and direct investment in, PRC entities by offshore holding companies and governmental
control of currency conversion may delay us from using the proceeds of this offering to make loans or additional capital contributions
to Haoxi Beijing, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.”
The following table sets forth a summary of our
cash flows for the periods indicated.

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities for
the six months ended December 31, 2023 was $0.30 million, compared to $0.21 million provided by operating activities for the six months
ended December 31, 2022. Compared with the same period, the change is basically in line with the increase in net profit by $0.31 million.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the
six months ended December 31, 2023 was $16,162, compared to $3,621 used in investing activities for the six months ended December 31,
2022. The increase in cash used in investing activities reflected the purchase of fixed assets for business purposes.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities
for the six months ended December 31, 2023 was $0.24 million, compared to $1.96 million used in financing activities for the six months
ended December 31,2022. The decrease is mainly attributable to the capital contribution of $1.99 million by a shareholder in the six
months ended December 31, 2022, whereas there was no such capital contribution in the comparative period ended December 31, 2023.
Capital Expenditures
We made capital expenditures of $16,162 and $3,621
for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our capital expenditures have been used primarily to purchase fixed
assets for business purposes. We estimate that our capital expenditures will increase moderately in the following two or three years
to support the expected growth of our business. We anticipate funding our future capital expenditures primarily with net cash flows from
operating activities and financing activities.
Contractual Obligations and Contingencies
From time to time, we may be subject to certain
legal proceedings, claims and disputes that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcomes of these legal proceedings
cannot be predicted, we do not believe these actions, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse impact on our financial position,
results of operations or liquidity. We are not aware of any material pending or threatened claims and litigation through and as of December
31, 2023.
We did not have any significant capital or other
commitments, long-term obligations, or guarantees as of December 31, 2023.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any financial guarantees
or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. In addition, we have not entered into any derivative
contracts that are indexed to our own shares and classified as equity, or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements.
Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit,
liquidity or market risk support to such entity. Moreover, we do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides
financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.
Holding Company Structure
Our Company is a holding company with no material
operations of its own. As all of our operations are conducted through the operating entity, our ability to pay dividends is primarily
dependent on receiving distributions of funds from WFOE and Haoxi Beijing. Our WFOE is permitted to pay dividends to us only out of its
retained earnings, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Under PRC law, our WFOE and Haoxi
Beijing are required to set aside at least 10% of after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund certain statutory reserve funds until
such reserve funds reach 50% of their registered capital. In addition, our WFOE may allocate a portion of its after-tax profits based
on PRC accounting standards to enterprise expansion funds and staff bonus and welfare funds at its discretion, may allocate a portion
of its after-tax profits based on PRC accounting standards to a discretionary surplus fund at its discretion. The statutory reserve funds
and the discretionary funds are not distributable as cash dividends.
Our Company, through the Reorganization, became
the ultimate parent entity of its subsidiary, Haoxi Beijing.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about
Market Risk
Credit Risk
Our credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents,
accounts receivable, and amounts due from related parties. As of December 31, 2022 and 2023, all of our cash and cash equivalents were
held by major financial institutions located in mainland China and Hong Kong. We believe these financial institutions are of high credit
quality. For accounts receivable, we extend credit based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, generally, without
requiring collateral or other security. Further, we review the recoverable amount of each individual receivable at each balance sheet
date to ensure that adequate allowances are made for doubtful accounts. In this regard, we consider that our credit risk for accounts
receivable is significantly reduced. For amounts due from related parties, we provide advances to the officers for daily operation. The
credit risk is mitigated by an ongoing monitoring process of outstanding balances and timely collection.
Customer and Supplier Concentration Risk
Major Customers
For the six months ended December 31, 2023, none
of our customers contributed over 10% of our revenue. As of December 31, 2023, account receivable balance of Customer M accounted for
approximately 64% of the Company’s total trade accounts receivable.
For the six months ended December 31, 2022, Customer
A accounted for approximately 22% of the total revenue of the Company. As December 31, 2022, Customer I accounted for 100% of the Company’s
total trade accounts receivable.
Major Suppliers
For the six months ended December 31, 2023, Supplier
L accounted for approximately 99% of the total purchases. As of December 31, 2023, Supplier P accounted for approximately 100% of the
Company’s trade accounts payable.
For the six months ended December 31, 2022, Supplier
L accounted for approximately 86% of the total purchases. As of December 31,2022, Supplier L accounted for approximately 68% of the Company’s
trade accounts payable.
Liquidity Risk
We are exposed to liquidity risk, which is the
risk that we will be unable to provide sufficient capital resources and liquidity to meet our commitments and business needs. Liquidity
risk is controlled by the application of financial position analysis and monitoring procedures. When necessary, we will turn to other
financial institutions and the shareholders to obtain short-term funding to meet the liquidity shortage.
Foreign Currency Risk
Substantially all of our operating activities
and our assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB, which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. All foreign exchange
transactions take place either through the Peoples’ Bank of China (“PBOC”) or other authorized financial institutions
at exchange rates quoted by the PBOC. Approval of foreign currency payments by the PBOC or other regulatory institutions requires submitting
a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices and signed contracts. The value of RMB is subject to changes in central
government policies and to international economic and political developments affecting supply and demand in the China Foreign Exchange
Trading System market.
Inflation risk
Since our inception, inflation in China has not
materially affected our results of operations. According to the National Bureau of Statistics of China, the year-over-year percent changes
in the consumer price index for six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were increases of 1.5% and 1.8%, respectively. Although we
have not been materially affected by inflation in the past, we may be affected if China experiences higher rates of inflation in the
future.
Critical Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation
The accompanying CFS are prepared and presented
in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Principles of consolidation
The accompanying CFS include the accounts of
us, and our subsidiaries, of which we are the primary beneficiary, from the dates they were acquired or incorporated. All inter-company
transactions and balances were eliminated in the consolidation.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the
related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the CFS, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during
the reporting period. We continually evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information, historical
experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Significant accounting estimates reflected
in our CFS include, but are not limited to, estimates and judgments applied in determination of allowance for doubtful receivables, impairment
losses for long-lived assets, including intangible assets, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, and fair value measurement for
preferred shares. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ
from those estimates.
Foreign currency translation and transactions
Our principal country of operations is the PRC.
The financial position and results of our operations are determined using RMB, the local currency, as the functional currency. Our financial
statements are reported using U.S. Dollars (“US$”). Assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rate at each
balance sheet date. The statements of operations and the consolidated statements of cash flows denominated in foreign currency are translated
at the average rate of exchange during the reporting period, and shareholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates.
Because cash flows are translated based on the average translation rate, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated
statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets. Adjustments
resulting from the translation are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) in shareholders’
equity.
The value of RMB against US$ and other currencies
may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in the PRC’s political and economic conditions. Any significant revaluation
of RMB may materially affect our financial condition in terms of US$ reporting. The following table outlines the currency exchange rates
that were used in creating our CFS in this prospectus:

No representation is made that the RMB amounts
could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars at the rates used in translation.
Fair value of financial instruments
Our financial instruments primarily consist of
cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and amounts due from related parties. The carrying values of these financial instruments
approximate fair values due to their short term in nature.
Fair value (“FV”) is defined as the
exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous
market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. This topic also establishes
a FV hierarchy which requires classification based on observable and unobservable inputs when measuring FV. There are three levels of
inputs that may be used to measure FV:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other
than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs
that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that
are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the FV of the assets or liabilities.
Determining which category an asset or liability
falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment. We evaluate its hierarchy disclosures each quarter.

which provides customer-tailored internet marketing services based on data analysis technology through the operating entity. Our revenue
primarily includes advertising service revenue.
We follow Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)
2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (FASB ASC Topic 606) using the modified retrospective approach. The results of applying
Topic 606 using the modified retrospective approach were insignificant and did not have a material impact on our CFS, business process,
controls, or systems.
Revenue from advertising services primarily consists
of revenue from providing online advertising services. Revenue represents the amount of consideration that we are entitled to in exchange
for the transfer of promised services in the ordinary course of our activities and is recorded net of value-added tax (“VAT”).
Consistent with the criteria of FASB ASC Topic 606, we recognize revenue when the performance obligation in a contract is satisfied by
transferring the control of a promised service to a customer. We also evaluate whether it is appropriate to record the gross amounts
of services sold and the related costs, or the net amounts earned as commissions. Payments for services are generally received after
deliveries. In the event we receive an advance from a customer, such advance is recorded as a liability to us.
Online Marketing solutions Services
The operating entity provides one-stop online
marketing solutions, including traffic acquisition from top online media platforms, content production, data analysis and advertising
campaign optimization, through the operating entity to our advertisers. The operating entity charges the advertiser customers primarily
based on a mix of Cost-Per-Click (“CPC”) (recognize revenue when specified action, such as click-throughs, is performed)
or Cost-Per-Time (“CPT”) (recognized revenue over the period of the contract by reference to the progress towards complete
satisfaction of that performance obligation). Media partners may also grant to the operating entity rebates mainly based on gross advertisement
spending (i) in the form of prepayments for future traffic acquisition; (ii) to net off the accounts payables we owed to them; or (iii)
in cash. Media partners include both media platforms (such as Toutiao and Douyin) as well as authorized third-party agents of media platforms,
through which the operating entity places ads for its advertiser customers when it has no direct contact with the platform. The operating
entity procures ad slots from the media partners (which it regards as its suppliers) to place ads for its advertiser customers.
While none of the factors individually are considered
presumptive or determinative, in this arrangement we are the primary obligor and responsible for (i) identifying and contracting with
third-party advertisers which we view as customers, and delivering the specified integrated services to the advertisers; (ii) bearing
certain risks of loss to the extent that the cost incurred for producing content, formulating advertisement campaign and acquiring user
traffic from online media platforms cannot be compensated by the total consideration received from the advertisers, which is similar
to inventory risk; and (iii) performing all the billing and collection activities, including retaining credit risk. We assume ownership
in the specified service before the service is delivered to the advertiser and act as the principal of these arrangements and therefore
recognizes revenue earned and costs incurred related to these transactions on a gross basis. Under this arrangement, the rebates earned
from the media partners are recorded as a reduction of cost of services.
The core principle underlying the revenue recognition
ASC 606 is that the Company recognizes revenue to represent the transfer of services to advertiser customers in an amount that reflects
the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in such exchange. This requires the Company to identify contractual performance
obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time. The Company’s advertising service
contracts have one single performance obligation, being the promise to display advertiser customers’ advertisement on the media
platform, The services, such as content production, data analysis and advertising campaign optimizations, are performed as inputs to
produce or deliver the combined output specified by the advertiser customer, and are highly interrelated, thus each of services cannot
be separately performed to fulfil the promise and is, therefore, not distinct. Under ASC 606, the related revenues are recognized. When
the Company provides services to advertiser customers which are charged based on the CPC model, control of services transfers when the
specific action such as click-throughs is performed. When the Company provides services to customers which are charged based on the time
advertised under the CPT model, control of services transfers over time and revenue is recognized over the period of the contract by
reference to the progress, which is measured by the duration for displaying the advertisement, towards complete satisfaction of that
performance obligation, which is measured by the completion of the displaying period.
CPC is a performance-based metric and under which
we charge our advertiser customers when an Internet user clicks the online advertisement we place. Most of our advertiser customers are
charged based on the CPC mechanism. Under the CPT mechanism, we charge our advertiser customers for placing an online short video for
a specific period of time. Few of our advertiser customers which intend to promote their brand name on the media platform adopt the CPT
model.
The transaction price under CPC model for marketing
solutions is based on the bidding price which varies from time to time due to the advertisement bidding price competition mechanism set
by media platforms. Only the advertisement with the highest bidding prices can be displayed and such bidding prices are recognized as
transaction prices once the Internet users click on the advertisements. We receive invoices from media partners. The invoiced fees contained
therein are equal to: (x) traffic acquisition costs (equal to bidding price per click-through multiplied by users’ click-throughs),
minus, (y) rebates from media partners as agreed, and the invoice fees are then recognized as cost of revenue. We then issue invoices
to our advertiser customers, and charge them the amount equal to: (x) the traffic acquisition costs, plus, (y) service charge, and the
total amount is recognized as revenue.
Under the CPT model, the transaction price we
charge our advertiser customers for placing advertisement for a specific period of time is contractually agreed upon by our advertiser
customers and us. We recognize revenue over the period of the contract by reference to the progress, which is measured by the duration
for displaying the advertisement, towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation, which is measured by the completion of
the displaying period. We receive invoices from media partners equivalent to traffic acquisition costs (equal to the predetermined CPT
by the media platforms, multiplied by the duration of display) minus rebates from media partners as agreed and recognized as cost of
revenue.
Uncertain tax positions
We use a more likely than not threshold for financial
statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. As a result, the impact of an
uncertain income tax position is recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant
tax authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained.
Interest on non-payment of income taxes under
requirement by tax law and penalties associated with tax positions when a tax position does not meet the minimum statutory threshold
to avoid payment of penalties recognized, if any, will be classified as a component of the provisions for income taxes. The tax returns
of Haoxi HK and Haoxi Beijing are subject to examination by the relevant local tax authorities. According to the Departmental Interpretation
and Practice Notes No.11 (Revised) (“DIPN11”) of the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Ordinance (the “HK tax laws”),
an investigation normally covers the six years of the assessment prior to the year of the assessment in which the investigation commences.
In the case of fraud and willful evasion, the investigation is extended to cover ten years of assessment. According to the PRC Tax Administration
and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of taxes is due to computational errors made by the
taxpayer or the withholding agent. The statute of limitations is extended to five years under special circumstances, where the underpayment
of taxes is more than RMB0.1 million. In the case of transfer pricing issues, the statute of limitation is ten years. There is no statute
of limitation in the case of tax evasion. For the six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2023, we did not have any material interest
or penalties associated with tax positions. We did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2022
or December 31, 2023. We do not expect that our assessment regarding unrecognized tax positions will materially change over the next
12 months.
Recent Issued or Adopted Accounting Standards
We consider the applicability and impact of all
accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued.
As an “emerging growth company,”
or EGC, the Company has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities
Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards applicable to private companies. The amendments in this ASU and its subsequent
amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods beginning after December
15, 2022. While the Company continues to evaluate certain aspects of the new standard, it does not expect the new standard to have a
material effect on its financial statements and the Company does not expect a significant change in its leasing activities between now
and adoption.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic
326). The amendments in this ASU require a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented
at the net amount expected to be collected. The amendments broaden the information that an entity must consider in developing its expected
credit loss estimate for assets measured either collectively or individually. The use of forecasted information incorporates more timely
information in the estimate of expected credit loss, which will be more decision useful to users of the financial statements. This ASU
is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019 for issuers and December 15, 2020 for non-issuers. Early
adoption is permitted for all entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein. In May 2019,
the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief. This ASU adds optional
transition relief for entities to elect the fair value option for certain financial assets previously measured at amortized cost basis
to increase comparability of similar financial assets. The ASUs should be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained
earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (that is, a modified retrospective approach).
On November 19, 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10 to amend the effective date for ASU 2016-13 to be fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2022 and interim periods therein.
The Company adopted this ASU on July 11, 2023
and expects that the adoption will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-10,
“Codification Improvements.” The amendments in this ASU are changes to clarify the Codification or correct unintended application
of guidance that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative
cost to most entities. The amendments in this ASU affect a wide variety of Topics in the Codification and apply to all reporting entities
within the scope of the affected accounting guidance. ASU 2020-10 is effective for annual periods beginning after July 1, 2021 for public
business entities. Early application is permitted. The amendments in this ASU should be applied retrospectively. The Company adopted
this ASU as of July 1, 2022 and the adoption does not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements
and related disclosures.
In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, Leases
(Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements, which Offers private companies, as well as not for-profit entities that are not conduit bond
obligors, a practical expedient that gives them the option of using the written terms and conditions of a common-control arrangement
when determining whether a lease exists and the subsequent accounting for the lease, including the lease’s classification and Amends
the accounting for leasehold improvements in common-control arrangements for all entities. The Company continues to evaluate the impact
of ASU 2023-01 on its CFS.
We do not believe other recently issued but not
yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our CFS.

Revenue
We generate revenue from providing one-stop online
marketing solutions, including traffic acquisition from mainstream online media platforms, content production, data analysis and advertising
campaign optimization, to advertisers through the operating entity. Net revenue was $16.16 million and $28.23 million for the fiscal
years ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively. The increase in our revenue is mainly attributable to the increase in the average revenue
per client from $66,489 in fiscal 2022 to $71,830 in fiscal 2023, while the operating entity served 243 and 393 customers in fiscal 2022
and 2023, respectively. The higher average revenue per client in the current year is mainly attributable to higher advertisement expenditure
by our health care industry clients.
The average revenue per client under our advertisement
pricing model consists of two components: 1) the average per unit-of-service price, which is the average price per click-through that
we charge our advertiser customers, and 2) the quantity of services, which is actual number of click-throughs with respect to each advertiser.
The following tables shows the components that impact our revenue and their correlation.

The increase in our quantity of services was
because more people opted to use various online services since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. We believe this was especially
evidenced by the increase in the number of clients the operating entity has served since January 2023, when the COVID control measures
were lifted in China, and the increasing popularity of ByteDance media platforms, with which we mainly collaborated, among our other
advertiser customers.
Cost of revenue
Our cost of revenue consists primarily of the
purchase of online traffic from third-party media platforms after deducting rebates, and salaries and benefits for business operation
staff. The cost of revenue increased by $10.66 million or 69%, from $15.51 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 to $26.17
million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. The increase in cost of revenue was in line with the increase in revenue.
Gross profit and gross margin
Our gross profit increased by $1.41 million,
from $0.65 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 to $2.06 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. Gross profit as
a percentage of revenue (“gross margin”) was 7.3% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, higher than 4.0% for the fiscal
2022, mainly due to the lower average bidding cost to generate each click-through charged by media partners as a result of our direct
contractual relationship with Ocean Engine, ByteDance’s subsidiary since June 2022. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, 96%
of the ads we placed for our advertiser customers was through ByteDance’s media platforms. The purchase amount of Haoxi Beijing’s
transactions with Ocean Engine accounted for 96% of its total purchases for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. Therefore, our average
bidding cost to generate each click-through was reduced for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.
Selling and marketing expenses
Our selling and marketing expenses primarily
consist of payroll and office related expenses. Selling and marketing expenses declined by 14% from $37,488 in the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2022 to $32,133 in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. This was mainly because we had a higher customer retention rate in the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, and also due to our direct contractual relationship with Ocean Engine, ByteDance’s subsidiary,
since June 2022. which saved our costs on marketing and promotion efforts to solicit new customers.
General and administrative expenses
Our general and administrative expenses mainly
consist of salaries and bonus, as well as office related expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by $536,020, or 223%,
from $239,941 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 to $775,961 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. The increase was mainly attributable
to an increase in rental expenses and professional fees in connection with our IPO.
Research and development expenses
Our R&D expenses mainly consist of salaries
and benefits of our R&D staff for the development of Bidding Compass, our online ads bidding analysis software. Research and development
expenses declined by $44,363 or 43%, from $102,524 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 to $58,161 for the fiscal year ended June
30, 2023. The decrease was mainly attributable to the relatively mature use of Bidding Compass, which aims to lower user acquisition
cost and implement a precise delivery strategy.
Income taxes
We had income taxes of $15,008 and $220,653 for
the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively. The increase in income tax expenses is mainly due to an increase in pre-tax
income, and the change in preferential tax policies.
Net (loss)/income
As a result of the foregoing, we had net income
of $0.24 million and $0.97 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2023, we had $1,203,203 in cash
and cash equivalents which increased by $909,692 from $293,511 at June 30, 2022. Our principal sources of liquidity have been proceeds
from capital contribution from a shareholder. As reflected in the consolidated financial statements, we had a shareholders’ equity
of $1.57 million as of June 30, 2023, and $0.87 million of cash used in operation activities for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.
In November 2022, we obtained approximately $2 million equity financing. Considering this equity financing, short-term bank loans and
the trend of improved earnings, we believe that the current cash and cash equivalents and the anticipated cash flows from the equity
financing will be sufficient to meet the anticipated working capital requirements and expenditures and bank loan repayment requirement
for the next 12 months.
We continue to explore opportunities to grow
our business. However, we have not yet achieved a business scale that is able to generate a sufficient revenue to achieve positive cash
flows from operating activities, and we expect that negative cashflows from operations will continue for the foreseeable future. While
we believe we will have sufficient cash for the next 12 months from the date the financial statements were issued, if we are unable to
grow the business to achieve economies of scale in the future, it will become even more difficult for us to sustain a sufficient source
of cash to cover our operating costs. We plan to raise additional capital, including among others, obtaining debt financing, to support
our future operation. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be able to obtain additional financing on terms acceptable to
us, in a timely manner, or at all, see “Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Operating Entity’s Business and Industry—We
may not be able to obtain the additional capital we need in a timely manner or on acceptable terms, or at all”.
As a Cayman exempted and offshore holding company,
we are permitted under PRC laws and regulations to provide funding to our wholly foreign-owned subsidiary in China only through loans
or capital contributions, subject to the approval of government authorities and limits on the amount of capital contributions and loans.
In addition, WFOE may provide Renminbi funding to the operating entity through capital injection or loans.
See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to
Doing Business in China—PRC regulations of loans to, and direct investment in, PRC entities by offshore holding companies and governmental
control of currency conversion may limit our ability to use the proceeds of this offering to make loans or additional capital contributions
to Haoxi Beijing, which could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.”

cash flows for the periods indicated.

Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 was $0.87 million, compared to $0.67 million used in operating activities for the fiscal year ended June
30, 2022. The improvement by $0.20 million during the comparative periods was mainly due to the increase of net income by $0.73 million,
an increase of change in advances from customers by $1.76 million and an increase of change in account payables by $0.40 million, partly
offset by the increase of change in advances to suppliers by $2.91 million.
Net cash used in investing activities for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 was $45,500, compared to $8,698 used in investing activities for fiscal year June 30, 2022. The increase
in cash used in investing activities reflected the purchase of fixed assets for business purposes.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities
for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 was $1.80 million, compared to $0.93 million provided by financing activities for the fiscal
year ended June 30, 2022. The increase is mainly attributable to capital injection by a new shareholder.
Capital Expenditures
We made capital expenditures of $45,500 and $8,698
for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our capital expenditures have been used primarily to purchase fixed
assets for business purposes. We estimate that our capital expenditures will increase moderately in the following two or three years
to support the expected growth of our business. We anticipate funding our future capital expenditures primarily with net cash flows from
operating activities and financing activities.
Contractual Obligations and Contingencies
From time to time, we may be subject to certain
legal proceedings, claims and disputes that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcomes of these legal proceedings
cannot be predicted, we do not believe these actions, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse impact on its financial position,
results of operations or liquidity. We are not aware of any material pending or threatened claims and litigation through and as of June
30, 2023.
We did not have any significant capital or other
commitments, long-term obligations, or guarantees as of June 30, 2023.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any financial guarantees
or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. In addition, we have not entered into any derivative
contracts that are indexed to our own shares and classified as equity, or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements.
Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit,
liquidity or market risk support to such entity. Moreover, we do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides
financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.
Holding Company Structure
Our Company is a holding company with no material
operations of its own. As most of our operations are conducted through the operating entity, our ability to pay dividends is primarily
dependent on receiving distributions of funds from our PRC subsidiaries, WFOE and Haoxi Beijing. Our WFOE is permitted to pay dividends
to us only out of its retained earnings, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Under PRC
law, our WFOE and Haoxi Beijing are required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund
certain statutory reserve funds until such reserve funds reach 50% of its registered capital. In addition, our WFOE may allocate a portion
of its after-tax profits based on PRC accounting standards to enterprise expansion funds and staff bonus and welfare funds
at its discretion, may allocate a portion of its after-tax profits based on PRC accounting standards to a discretionary surplus
fund at its discretion. The statutory reserve funds and the discretionary funds are not distributable as cash dividends.
Our Company, through the Reorganization, became
the ultimate parent entity of its subsidiary, Haoxi Beijing.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about
Market Risk
Credit Risk
Our credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents,
accounts receivable, and amounts due from related parties. As of June 30, 2022 and 2023, all of the cash and cash equivalents was held
by major financial institutions located in mainland China and Hong Kong. We believe that these financial institutions are of high credit
quality. For accounts receivable, we extend credit based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, generally without
requiring collateral or other security. Further, we review the recoverable amount of each individual receivable at each balance sheet
date to ensure that adequate allowances are made for doubtful accounts. In this regard, we consider that our credit risk for accounts
receivable is significantly reduced. For amounts due from related parties, we provide advances to the officers for daily operations.
The credit risk is mitigated by ongoing monitoring of outstanding balances and timely collection when there is no immediate need for
such advances.
Customer and Supplier Concentration Risk
Major Customers
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, Customer
M and Customer A accounted for approximately 10% and 10% of the total revenue of the Company, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, Customer
N and Customer O accounted for approximately 73% and 18% of the Company’s total trade accounts receivable.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, Customer
A and B accounted for approximately 26% and 14% of our total revenue, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, trade receivables from Customer
A accounted for 64% of our total trade accounts receivable.
Major Suppliers
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, Supplier
L accounted for approximately 96% of the total purchases, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, Supplier P accounted for approximately 98%
of the Company’s trade accounts payable.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, Suppliers
C, D, E, and F accounted for approximately 30%, 20%, 18%, and 13% of the total purchases, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, Suppliers
C, G, E, and D accounted for approximately 25%, 24%, 23%, and 20% of the Company’s trade accounts payable, respectively.
Liquidity Risk
We are exposed to liquidity risk, which is the
risk that we will be unable to provide sufficient capital resources and liquidity to meet our commitments and business needs. Liquidity
risk is controlled by the application of financial position analysis and monitoring procedures. When necessary, we will turn to other
financial institutions and the shareholders to obtain short-term funding to meet the liquidity shortage.
Foreign Currency Risk
Substantially all of our operating activities
and our assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB, which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. All foreign exchange
transactions take place either through the Peoples’ Bank of China (“PBOC”) or other authorized financial institutions
at exchange rates quoted by PBOC. Approval of foreign currency payments by the PBOC or other regulatory institutions requires submitting
a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices and signed contracts. The value of RMB is subject to changes in central
government policies and to international economic and political developments affecting supply and demand in the China Foreign Exchange
Trading System market.
Inflation risk
Since our inception, inflation in China has not
materially affected our results of operations. According to the National Bureau of Statistics of China, the year-over-year percent changes
in the consumer price index for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were increases of 0 and 1.5%, respectively. Although we
have not been materially affected by inflation in the past, we may be affected if China experiences higher rates of inflation in the
future.
Critical Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation
The accompanying CFS are prepared and presented
in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Principles of consolidation
The accompanying CFS include the accounts of
us, and our subsidiaries, of which we are the primary beneficiary, from the dates they were acquired or incorporated. All inter-company
transactions and balances were eliminated in the consolidation.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the
related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the CFS, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during
the reporting period. We continually evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information, historical
experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Significant accounting estimates reflected
in our CFS include, but are not limited to, estimates and judgments applied in determination of allowance for doubtful receivables, impairment
losses for long-lived assets, including intangible assets, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, and fair value measurement for
preferred shares. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ
from those estimates.
Foreign currency translation and transactions
Our principal country of operations is the PRC.
The financial position and results of our operations are determined using RMB, the local currency, as the functional currency. Our financial
statements are reported using U.S. Dollars (“US$”). Assets and liabilities are translated using the exchange rate at each
balance sheet date. The statements of operations and the consolidated statements of cash flows denominated in foreign currency are translated
at the average rate of exchange during the reporting period, and shareholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates.
Because cash flows are translated based on the average translation rate, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated
statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets. Adjustments
resulting from the translation are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) in shareholders’
equity.
The value of RMB against US$ and other currencies
may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in the PRC’s political and economic conditions. Any significant revaluation
of RMB may materially affect our financial condition in terms of US$ reporting. The following table outlines the currency exchange rates
that were used in creating our CFS in this prospectus:

No representation is made that the RMB amounts
could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars at the rates used in translation.
Fair value of financial instruments
Our financial instruments primarily consist of
cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and amounts due from related parties. The carrying values of these financial instruments
approximate fair values due to their short term in nature.
Fair value (“FV”) is defined as the
exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous
market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. This topic also establishes
a FV hierarchy which requires classification based on observable and unobservable inputs when measuring FV. There are three levels of
inputs that may be used to measure FV:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other
than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs
that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that
are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the FV of the assets or liabilities.
Determining which category an asset or liability
falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment. We evaluate its hierarchy disclosures each quarter.
Revenue recognition
We are an online marketing solutions provider
which provides customer-tailored internet marketing services based on data analysis technology through the operating entity. Our revenue
primarily includes advertising service revenue.
We follow Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)
2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (FASB ASC Topic 606) using the modified retrospective approach. The results of applying
Topic 606 using the modified retrospective approach were insignificant and did not have a material impact on our CFS, business process,
controls, or systems.
Revenue from advertising services primarily consists
of revenue from providing online advertising services. Revenue represents the amount of consideration that we are entitled to in exchange
for the transfer of promised services in the ordinary course of our activities and is recorded net of value-added tax (“VAT”).
Consistent with the criteria of FASB ASC Topic 606, we recognize revenue when the performance obligation in a contract is satisfied by
transferring the control of a promised service to a customer. We also evaluate whether it is appropriate to record the gross amounts
of services sold and the related costs, or the net amounts earned as commissions. Payments for services are generally received after
deliveries. In the event we receive an advance from a customer, such advance is recorded as a liability to us.
Online
Marketing Solution Services
The
operating entity provides one-stop online marketing solutions, including traffic acquisition from top online media platforms, content
production, data analysis and advertising campaign optimization, through the operating entity to our advertisers. The term “traffic
acquisition” refers to the process of advertising and acquiring a target audience for our advertisement campaigns on online media
platforms. The operating entity charges the advertiser customers primarily based on a mix of Cost-Per-Click (“CPC”) (recognize
revenue when specified action, such as click-throughs, is performed) or Cost-Per-Time (“CPT”) (recognize revenue over the
period of the contract by reference to the progress towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation). Media partners may
also grant to the operating entity rebates mainly based on gross advertisement spending (i) in the form of advances to suppliers for
future traffic acquisition; (ii) to net off the accounts payables we owed to them; or (iii) in cash. Media partners include both media
platforms (such as Toutiao and Douyin) as well as authorized third-party agents of media platforms, through which the operating entity
places ads for its advertiser customers when it has no direct contact with the platform. The operating entity procures ad slots from
the media partners (which it regards as its suppliers) to place ads for its advertiser customers.
While
none of the factors individually are considered presumptive or determinative, in this arrangement we are the primary obligor and responsible
for (i) identifying and contracting with third-party advertisers which we view as customers, and delivering the specified integrated
services to the advertisers; (ii) bearing certain risks of loss to the extent that the cost incurred for producing content, formulating
advertisement campaign and acquiring user traffic from online media platforms cannot be compensated by the total consideration received
from the advertisers, which is similar to inventory risk; and (iii) performing all the billing and collection activities, including retaining
credit risk. We assume ownership in the specified service before the service is delivered to the advertiser and act as the principal
of these arrangements and therefore recognizes revenue earned and costs incurred related to these transactions on a gross basis. Under
this arrangement, the rebates earned from the media partners are recorded as a reduction of cost of services.
The
core principle underlying the revenue recognition ASC 606 is that the Company recognizes revenue to represent the transfer of services
to advertiser customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in such exchange. This
requires the Company to identify contractual performance obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in
time or over time. The Company’s advertising service contracts have one single performance obligation, being the promise to display
advertiser customers’ advertisement on the media platform, The services, such as content production, data analysis and advertising
campaign optimizations, are performed as inputs to produce or deliver the combined output specified by the advertiser customer, and are
highly interrelated, thus each of services cannot be separately performed to fulfil the promise and is, therefore, not distinct. Under
ASC 606, the related revenues are recognized. When the Company provides services to advertiser customers which are charged based on the
CPC model, control of services transfers when the specific action such as click-throughs is performed. When the Company provides services
to customers which are charged based on the time advertised under the CPT model, control of services transfers over time and revenue
is recognized over the period of the contract by reference to the progress, which is measured by the duration for displaying the advertisement,
towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation, which is measured by the completion of the displaying period.
CPC
is a performance-based metric and under which we charge our advertiser customers when an Internet user clicks the online advertisement
we place. Most of our advertiser customers are charged based on the CPC mechanism. Under the CPT mechanism, we charge our advertiser
customers for placing an online short video for a specific period of time. Few of our advertiser customers which intend to promote their
brand name on the media platform adopt the CPT model.
The
transaction price under CPC model for marketing solutions is based on the bidding price which varies from time to time due to the advertisement
bidding price competition mechanism set by media platforms. Only the advertisement with the highest bidding prices can be displayed and
such bidding prices are recognized as transaction prices once the Internet users click on the advertisements. We receive invoices from
media partners. The invoiced fees contained therein are equal to: (x) traffic acquisition costs (equal to bidding price per click-through
multiplied by users’ click-throughs), minus, (y) rebates from media partners as agreed, and the invoice fees are then recognized
as cost of revenue. We then issue invoices to our advertiser customers, and charge them the amount equal to: (x) the traffic acquisition
costs, plus, (y) service charge, and the total amount is recognized as revenue.
Under
the CPT model, the transaction price we charge our advertiser customers for placing advertisement for a specific period of time is contractually
agreed upon by our advertiser customers and us. We recognize revenue over the period of the contract by reference to the progress, which
is measured by the duration for displaying the advertisement, towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation, which is
measured by the completion of the displaying period. We receive invoices from media partners equivalent to traffic acquisition costs
(equal to the predetermined CPT by the media platforms, multiplied by the duration of display) minus rebates from media partners as agreed
and recognized as cost of revenue.
Uncertain
tax positions
We
use a more likely than not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken
in a tax return. As a result, the impact of an uncertain income tax position is recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not
to be sustained upon audit by the relevant tax authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than
a 50% likelihood of being sustained.
Interest
on non-payment of income taxes under requirement by tax law and penalties associated with tax positions when a tax position does not
meet the minimum statutory threshold to avoid payment of penalties recognized, if any, will be classified as a component of the provisions
for income taxes. The tax returns of Haoxi HK and Haoxi Beijing are subject to examination by the relevant local tax authorities. According
to the Departmental Interpretation and Practice Notes No.11 (Revised) (“DIPN11”) of the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Ordinance
(the “HK tax laws”), an investigation normally covers the six years of the assessment prior to the year of the assessment
in which the investigation commences. In the case of fraud and willful evasion, the investigation is extended to cover ten years of assessment.
According to the PRC Tax Administration and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of taxes is
due to computational errors made by the taxpayer or the withholding agent. The statute of limitations is extended to five years under
special circumstances, where the underpayment of taxes is more than RMB0.1 million. In the case of transfer pricing issues, the statute
of limitation is ten years. There is no statute of limitation in the case of tax evasion. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and
2023, we did not have any material interest or penalties associated with tax positions. We did not have any significant unrecognized
uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2022 or June 30, 2023. We do not expect that our assessment regarding unrecognized tax positions
will materially change over the next 12 months.
Recent
Issued or Adopted Accounting Standards
We
consider the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting
standards that are issued.
As
an “emerging growth company,” or EGC, the Company has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period provided
in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards applicable to private companies. The
amendments in this ASU and its subsequent amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, including
interim periods beginning after December 15, 2022. While the Company continues to evaluate certain aspects of the new standard, it does
not expect the new standard to have a material effect on its financial statements and the Company does not expect a significant change
in its leasing activities between now and adoption.
In
June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13,
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). The amendments in this ASU require a financial asset (or a group of financial assets)
measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The amendments broaden the information that
an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured either collectively or individually. The
use of forecasted information incorporates more timely information in the estimate of expected credit loss, which will be more decision
useful to users of the financial statements. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019 for
issuers and December 15, 2020 for non-issuers. Early adoption is permitted for all entities for annual periods beginning after December
15, 2018, and interim periods therein. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326):
Targeted Transition Relief. This ASU adds optional transition relief for entities to elect the fair value option for certain financial
assets previously measured at amortized cost basis to increase comparability of similar financial assets. The ASUs should be applied
through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is
effective (that is, a modified retrospective approach). On November 19, 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10 to amend the effective date
for ASU 2016-13 to be fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods therein.
The Company adopted this ASU on July 1, 2023
and expects that the adoption will not have a material impact on the Company’s CFS.
In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-10,
“Codification Improvements.” The amendments in this ASU are changes to clarify the Codification or correct unintended application
of guidance that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative
cost to most entities. The amendments in this ASU affect a wide variety of Topics in the Codification and apply to all reporting entities
within the scope of the affected accounting guidance. ASU 2020-10 is effective for annual periods beginning after July 1, 2021 for public
business entities. Early application is permitted. The amendments in this ASU should be applied retrospectively. The Company adopted
this ASU as of July 1, 2022 and the adoption does not have a material impact on the Company’s CFS.
In
March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, Leases (Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements, which Offers private companies, as well as
not-for-profit entities that are not conduit bond obligors, a practical expedient that gives them the option of using the written terms
and conditions of a common-control arrangement when determining whether a lease exists and the subsequent accounting for the lease, including
the lease’s classification and Amends the accounting for leasehold improvements in common-control arrangements for all entities.
The Company continues to evaluate the impact of ASU 2023-01 on its CFS.
We
do not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on
our CFS.
BUSINESS
Overview
The
operating entity is an online marketing solution provider in China, with an advertiser client base mainly in the healthcare industry.
The growth of the operating entity in recent years has benefited from the quick increase of news feed ads, its major form of ad placement,
in the industry of online marketing in China. In addition, the healthcare industry in China has developed rapidly because of the growth
both in the average income and the aging population, which provide a conducive environment for the development of the operating entity’s
business. The operating entity has a management team with several years of experience in marketing for healthcare companies. Its own
data analysis software “Bidding Compass” has helped it obtain a large volume of ad placement data. Moreover, it has developed
a stable placement history with mainstream online advertising platforms in China and has been working closely with them since its establishment
in 2018.
The
operating entity mainly generates its revenue by providing one-stop online marketing solutions, in particular, it provides online short
video ads for advertiser customers through its media partners. Media partners include both media platforms (such as Toutiao and Douyin),
as well as authorized third-party agents of media platforms, through which the operating entity places ads for its advertiser customers
when it has no direct contact with the platform. The operating entity procures ad slots from the media partners (which it regards as
its suppliers) to place ads for its advertiser customers. The operating entity provides customized marketing solutions by planning, producing,
placing, and optimizing online ads, especially online short video ads, to help its advertisers acquire, convert, and retain ultimate
consumers on various online media platforms. The operating entity has served approximately 2,000 advertisers since its incorporation
in 2018, the majority of which are healthcare companies. During the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, it served 338 and 183
advertiser customers, respectively. During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, it served 393 and 243 advertisers, respectively,
of which 341 and 128 were healthcare companies, respectively. The operating entity primarily places its ads through mainstream online
short video platforms and social media platforms in China, such as Toutiao, Douyin, WeChat, and Weibo. The operating entity is dedicated
to reducing costs and increasing efficiency for its advertisers and offering them easy online marketing solutions.
The
following table sets forth some KPIs of the operating entity’s online marketing solutions for the periods indicated below.

| 1.55 | % |
| 1. | Impression
refers to the number of page views of an ad, which are counted and judged as “valid”
by media platforms’ backend system and charged by media platforms. A media platforms’
backend system instantly checks if a page view is valid when an ad is displayed. Invalid
page views include fraudulent page views or a large amount of page views in a short period
of time on the same ad by an identical user account, of which the duplicate views will not
be counted towards the number of impressions. Page views that are not identified as “invalid”
are considered as valid by media platform’s backend system. |
| 2. | When
an Internet user clicks on an ad, a click incident is triggered, and this incident is considered
a click-through. |
| 3. | When
an Internet user submits a survey, sheet or other interactive forms contained in the advertisement
with the user’s contact information after the click-through, a submission incident
is triggered, and this incident is considered a conversion. |
| 4. | CTR
is calculated by dividing the total number of clicks-throughs by the total number of impressions.
CTR provides useful information on monitoring the effect and quality of ad placement, the
attractiveness of ads to Internet users, the creativeness of ads, and the accuracy of selecting
the placement target audience. Management of the operating entity uses CTR to monitor the
intermediate effect and quality of ad placement. CTR also enables the operating entity’s
management to adjust placement plan and content design of an ad. |
| 5. | CVR
is calculated by dividing the total number of conversions by the number of click-throughs.
CVR provides useful information on monitoring the effect and quality of ad placement, the
effect and quality of the interactive form included in an ad, the attractiveness of the interactive
form to Internet users, and the accuracy of selecting the placement target audience. Management
of the operating entity uses CVR to monitor the final and overall effect and quality of ad
placement and interactive forms. CVR also enables the operating entity’s management
to adjust the placement plan and content design of an ad. |
For
the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we had revenue of $23.50 million and $9.16 million, respectively, and net income of
$760,198 and $447,046, respectively. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we had revenue of $28.23 million and $16.16 million,
respectively, and net income of $969,752 and $244,587, respectively.
Competitive
Strengths
We
believe that the following competitive strengths are essential for the operating entity’s success and differentiate it from its
competitors:
Customized
One-Stop Services
An
important feature distinguishing the operating entity from its competitors is its customized one-stop services through active communication
with advertisers. The operating entity cooperates with advertisers closely through the whole process of ad placement. After placing ads
for the first time, the advertiser would provide data of ad placement effects, such as effective rate and transaction data, to the operating
entity to optimize the placement strategy. In the earlier stage after placing the ad, the operating entity would follow up with the advertiser
every two to three days. Generally, the ROI becomes stable after three placements and the advertiser would add budget for a continuing
placement. The duration of each ad placement typically ranges from 10 days to one year, depending on the type of the placement. For instance,
service promotion campaigns typically take a week to a month, and branding campaigns take a longer time as per the request from the advertiser
customers. While most advertising agents only place ads and monitor customer acquisition costs, the operating entity actively engages
in the online marketing end of its advertiser customers, tracing their CVR and transaction data to optimize marketing strategies. The
operating entity develops this strategy based on its experience of placing ads for advertisers in the healthcare industry. The customized
one-stop services provided by the operating entity cater to the need of advertisers in the healthcare industry and helps the operating
entity maintain and expand its client base.
Media
Resources – The Operating Entity’s Relation with Media Partners
The
operating entity has established connections with mainstream media platforms in China, which provide advertisers with a broad range of
options to reach their ultimate consumers. Such connections are built up through (1) direct contractual relations with media platforms,
and (2) third-party agents authorized by the media platforms with which the operating entity has no direct contact. For example, the
operating entity has established direct contractual relationship with Ocean Engine, a subsidiary of ByteDance, which operates as a mobile
marketing platform helping clients advertise their products on ByteDance’s apps, such as Toutiao, Douyin, and Xigua Video, through
a business cooperation agreement. ByteDance is a Chinese technology enterprise that offers a range of education and entertainment content
platforms, including video-sharing social networking. The operating entity also keeps a close connection with third-party agents of other
mainstream platforms, with which platforms the operating entity has no direct contact. Through these agents, the operating entity can
place ads on these platforms for its advertiser customers. Such third-party agents have high transaction amount with the media platforms
for years and enjoy high rebates from the media platforms. The operating entity engages with third-party agents to access the media platforms.
The operating entity establishes the account and engages with third-party agents who in turn engage with media platforms for the ad placement.
These agents charge the ad accounts once they receive the operating entity’s payments, and grant the operating entity part of the
rebates from the media platforms. As the operating entity increases in its scale and volume of transactions, it engages with the media
platforms more directly instead of indirectly through third-party agents. The direct business cooperation with Ocean Engine, a subsidiary
of ByteDance, illustrates such trend.
The
online marketing services of the operating entity are awarded and highly recognized by some influential media platforms in China. For
instance, in 2019 the operating entity was awarded as an Ocean Engine Annual Outstanding Agent by ByteDance and received the Annual Best
Contribution Award from Sina Weibo; in 2020 the operating entity received the “Best Breakthrough Award” from Ocean Engine;
in 2021 the operating entity received Ocean Engine’s “Top 20 Channels Award”, “Best Content Marketing Award”
and “Best Partnership Award”; in 2022 the operating entity was awarded as Ocean Engine’s “Best Ecosystem Partnership.”
Information
Flow – Self-developed Advertising Data Collection Software
The
operating entity developed its own software, “Bidding Compass,” based on its own marketing experience. Bidding Compass is
a database collecting historical data of impressions, click-throughs, and ROIs from advertisers that the operating entity has served
in 34 provincial-level administrative regions, 333 prefecture-level cities in China. Based on the data collected, the operating entity
formulates its marketing strategies of bidding, ad placement, and optimization of customer acquisition costs. Bidding Compass has the
functions set forth below:
| ● | Advertiser
Management: The operating entity uses Bidding Compass to add information of each new advertiser
and updates it when necessary; |
| ● | Short
Video Ads Order Management: The operating entity submits the advertiser’s order for
placing short video ads to Bidding Compass; |
| ● | Ad
Account Management: The operating entity owns and maintains its ad accounts on the media
platforms, such as Toutiao and Tencent. It uses its ad accounts to place advertisements for
its advertiser customers and make payments to the media platforms. It also manages the account
information, such as media and client policies of these platforms. The operating entity typically
maintains one ad account on each media platform to place advertisements for multiple advertiser
customers. Thus, advertiser customers do not need to set up or maintain their ad accounts,
which saves costs for them and improves efficiency of ad placement; |
| ● | Bidding
Information Management: The operating entity records historical ads bidding data in Bidding
Compass, which will provide a reference for bidding prices in the future; |
| ● | Ads
Making Process Management: The director, producing team, and video editing team record the
key information of the making of a short video ad in Bidding Compass, such as information
regarding the actors involved, the filming date and location, demands of the advertiser customer,
etc.; |
| ● | Ad
bidding Management: The operating entity makes ad bids on media platforms for ad slots to
place ads on behalf of its advertiser customers, competing with other advertisers who make
bids for the same ad slot, either by themselves or by a third-party advertising agency. Each
of the bidders indicates the ad slot with a specific time window to place the ad, the target
audience, and the advertising fee it offers to the media platform. The media platforms accept
the bid they prefer and assign the ad slot to the winning bidder. The operating entity reviews
real-time ad bids on media platforms and places the client’s ads based upon its assessment
of best cost-output ratio on the slots of the platform; and |
| ● | Finance
Management: The finance department of the operating entity reviews all the payment requests
from media partners. |
According
to the 2021 Annual Insight Report of Online Advertisement in China published by iResearch (the “iResearch Report”), as the
online advertisement market develops, advertisers value the accuracy and the cost-efficiency of marketing, and invest more in digital
technology.1 Moreover, the trend of e-commerce and short videos has made user traffic and data management essential for marketing.
Bidding Compass caters to this trend and plays a key role when the operating entity designs online marketing solutions for its advertisers.
Highly
Experienced Team
The
senior management team of the operating entity has been essential in driving the growth of its business. The founder, Mr. Lei Xu, has
over a decade of experience in marketing for healthcare companies. Mr. Xu has access to multiple advertiser and media resources in the
healthcare industry. He served as a senior manager in a Chinese healthcare website, Xun Yi Wen Yao, from 2017 to 2018, and has gained
a deep understanding of online marketing for healthcare companies. In addition, Mr. Xu has been an entrepreneur since 2013 and has gained
rich experience in running start-ups and managing an entrepreneurship team.
The
president, Mr. Zhen Fan, has over 15 years of experience in online marketing. He has worked at several big Internet companies in China,
including Sohu and ifeng. Mr. Fan is also familiar with the capital market in the U.S. and has experience in operating U.S. listed companies,
IPO financing, and mergers and acquisitions. He was the CEO of Mmtec, Inc. (NASDAQ: MTC), a Nasdaq listed company.
Besides
the management team, the operating entity has professional and experienced optimization and sales teams. As of the date of this prospectus,
among all its 14 optimizers, eight are senior engineers of feeds advertising marketing certified by Ocean Engine, a subsidiary of ByteDance;
10 have three to five years’ experience in medical marketing; and five were certified marketing consultants awarded by Tencent.
Through this seasoned team, the operating entity has accumulated a large client base and is familiar with marketing needs of advertisers
in the healthcare industry.

Growth
Strategies
The
operating entity intends to develop its business and strengthen brand loyalty by implementing the following strategies:
Reinforcing
Collaboration with Media Platforms and Enhancing Advertiser Base in the Healthcare Industry
The
operating entity intends to maintain its growing status by reinforcing collaboration with mainstream media platforms. Specifically, the
operating entity will seek cooperation with them in risk control, customized services of downstream customers, and promoting its specialty
in offering online marketing solutions for advertisers in the healthcare industry. It is also planning to assign more personnel to develop
its business with new online media platforms, such as RED (xiaohongshu), a social media and e-commerce platform in China. It will first
engage with those fast-growing online media platforms, apply for their corresponding online marketing solutions licenses, and develop
customized advertising campaigns well-tailored to the needs of both the advertisers and the new media platform. By establishing a close
and stable relationship with these new media platforms and its advertisers, the operating entity is planning to further expand such business
plans to more existing and new advertisers, and engage emerging new online media platforms each year to satisfy its advertisers’
increasing marketing needs. In the coming years, it will also assign additional resource to each new media platform to develop more attractive
and effective online marketing solutions.
Moreover,
the operating entity plans to enhance its advertiser base to further scale up and grow its business. It plans to continue to deepen its
penetration in the healthcare industry through developing and offering more tailored solutions with industry-specific features, such
as solutions tailored for cosmetic customers. The operating entity intends to increase its market share in the healthcare advertising
industry and to attract 10% of the advertiser customers in the healthcare industry by 2025 by acquiring 150-200 new advertisers each
year.
Continuing
to Invest in and Develop the Technology owned by the Operating Entity
We
consider technological innovations to be a critical component of the operating entity’s strategy, allowing it to provide execution
at scale and deliver data-driven insights to grow its advertisers’ businesses. We will continue to invest in and develop the operating
entity’s self-owned software, “Bidding Compass.” We plan to invest $2 million in the R&D of Bidding Compass and
recruit 20 new R&D engineers. We also intend to improve data analytical capabilities of Bidding Compass to make it more efficient.
The
Business Model
The
operating entity targets advertisers in the healthcare industry and places online short video ads for them on major online short video
platforms in China. Compared to conventional forms of marketing solutions, the online short video marketing solutions of the operating
entity provide target consumers with an immersive marketing environment through the delivery of attention-catching and digestible information.
These ads are naturally integrated in attractive narrative forms, such as short stories, celebrity recommendations and daily life presentations,
all tailored to the needs of the ultimate consumers. The following screenshots illustrate online short video ads produced and placed
by the operating entity on various media platforms:

Services
and Operational Flow
The
operating entity provides one-stop cross-media online marketing solutions to advertisers through its media partners. Below is a flow
chart of the operating entity’s services and operation.
![](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1954594/000121390024077909/image_007.jpg)
| ● | Advertisers.
The operating entity’s clients mainly include direct advertisers and advertising agencies
on behalf of their own advertisers which need to acquire ultimate consumers through online
marketing solutions. These clients place their marketing budgets with the operating entity.
The one-stop cross-media online marketing solutions of the operating entity help such advertisers
optimize their marketing strategies, enhance their brand recognitions and acquire, convert,
and retain more ultimate consumers through creative and attractive online marketing campaigns. |
| ● | Media
Partners. The operating entity’s media partners are mainly online media platforms
which need to monetize their user traffic through offering Internet ad inventories on their
platforms. These media partners primarily include popular online short video platforms, widely-known
social media platforms and major search engine platforms in China. Since the operating entity
is able to help advertisers target and reach ultimate consumers through its quality and attention-catching
online marketing solutions, the operating entity can therefore ensure the efficient use of
ad inventories of its media partners with effective and efficient monetization results. |
| ● | Internet
Users. The operating entity provides Internet users or ultimate consumers with high-quality
and attention-catching online marketing content, in particular online short video ads, through
its media partners. Utilizing the ad bidding and placement information obtained by Bidding
Compass, the operating entity is able to produce and deliver large-scale and customized online
marketing solutions for its advertiser customers, which will then feed such online marketing
content to Internet users through the media partners. |
The
operating entity offers full services for short video advertising, including script drafting, filming, and video making; setting up accounts
under its own name on media platforms for ad launching and making payments to those platforms; optimizing; and post-launching effect
analysis. The operating entity has developed an efficient service flow for advertisers. The whole process normally takes one to three
months. The following diagram illustrates the operating entity’s flow of serving advertisers:
| ● | Engagement
with Advertisers and Media Partners: The operating entity generally enters into annual
framework agreements with advertisers. It also adopts a risk management system to review
each of its potential advertisers on their business model, financial situation, credit records,
market channels, growth potential and legal compliance risks, and only enters into agreements
with those advertisers which can pass its assessment criteria. In the meantime, the operating
entity also assists advertisers with the submission of documentation to designated online
media platforms for the approval to setup accounts on their advertising platforms. In the
case where the operating entity needs to acquire user traffic indirectly through a media
agent, it liaises with the relevant agent for the account registration. |
| ● | Communicating
with Advertisers about their Needs. The operating entity would confirm the placement
period, budget, basic Internet user target setting, content making, and data feedback in
later periods with advertisers. |
| ● | Planning
of Advertising Campaign: After signing each annual framework agreement, the operating
entity will then communicate with advertisers and conduct campaign planning based on their
particular criteria and marketing goals, help them formulate campaign parameters, such as
ultimate consumer demographics, devices, geographic regions, user preferences, and the timing
and duration of the marketing campaigns, as well as proposals on marketing strategies. Such
marketing strategies may be amended for several rounds, and are usually executed only after
the advertiser customer is satisfied with the strategies. |
| ● | Content
Creation and Production: Pursuant to the advertising campaign plans and other specific
requirements from its advertisers, the operating entity will then develop creative insights
and translate to the script for production and filming. Specifically, for online short video
ads, the operating entity will engage actors to film at its professional content production
studios, and its in-house editors and post-production staff will further tailor and customize
the online short videos with special effects based on the requirements, budget, and experience
in online marketing and sales of its advertisers. For advertisers that have just started
online marketing and have a limited budget, the operating entity would suggest them to advertise
more on their sales and promotion events. For advertisers with an ample budget, apart from
content related to their sales and promotion events, the operating entity usually advises
them to allocate more ad content on brand image building. The production of online marketing
solutions will only be completed when the legal and compliance department reviews and confirms
that the content is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, ethical standards
as well as the relevant online media platform’s internal policies. |
| ● | Placement
of Online Marketing Solutions: The operating entity proceeds with user traffic acquisition
and bids for ad inventories on the targeted online media platforms selected by its advertisers.
The operating entity generally utilizes Bidding Compass and media engine platforms to place
online marketing solutions for its advertisers. The operating entity, using Bidding Compass,
makes ad bids on media platforms for ad slots to place ads on behalf of its advertiser customers,
competing with other advertisers who make bids for the same ad slot, either by themselves
or by third-party advertising agencies. Each of the bidders indicates the ad slot with a
specific time window to place the ad, the target audience, and the advertising fee it offers
to the media platform. The media platforms accept the bid they prefer and assign the ad slot
to the winning bidder. Bidding Compass has collected a large number of ad bidding data of
the operating entity’s advertisers according to their industries, and it fits the mechanism
of searching engine of mainstream media platforms. Therefore, Bidding Compass is well suited
to the mechanism of the engine of media platforms, and the operating entity uses it to design
ad bidding and placement plans for advertisers. Normally, as requested by advertisers, the
operating entity may place online short video ads on their designated online media platforms.
If the advertisers have no specific instructions, the operating entity may also place ads
on multiple popular online short video platforms with high average daily active users (“DAUs”)
and monthly active users (“MAUs”) taking account of various factors, such as
the advertiser’ marketing budgets, KPI requirements and user traffic purchasing costs
of the online media platforms. DAU and MAU are usually defined by media platforms in China
as the number of users who have used their service in a day and a month, respectively. The
average DAUs and MAUs data of media platforms are published by media platforms on a regular
basis and are useful indicators for the operating entity to evaluate the Internet user activeness
across different media platforms. Taking the aforementioned various factors into consideration,
in order to promote better marketing effects, the operating entity prioritizes its ad placement
on the media platforms with higher DAUs and MAUs. |
| ● | Performance
Operation and Optimization: Once online ads, particularly online short videos marketing
solutions, are displayed online, the operating entity will monitor the performance and review
marketing results on media platforms on a real-time and continuing basis. |
| ● | Settlement:
The operating entity’s media partners typically issue invoices of traffic acquisition
costs to it on a monthly basis based on ad performance data. See “Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting
Policies—Online Marketing Solution Services.” The operating entity will
then issue invoices to its advertisers and the payment period of the invoices is generally
60 days. |
Revenue
and Pricing Model
Our
revenue primarily includes advertising services. The operating entity provides one-stop online marketing solutions, especially online
short video advertising, including script drafting, filming, and video making; setting up its own accounts on media platforms for ad
launching and making payments to those platforms; optimizing; and post-launching effect analysis, to its advertisers. It charges the
advertisers primarily based on a mix of CPC and CPT. CPC is an online advertising pricing model where an advertiser pays a media partner
(typically a search engine, website owner, or a network of websites) when the ad is clicked. Under this model, the operating entity recognizes
revenue when specified action, such as click-throughs, is performed. CPT is an online advertising pricing model where an advertiser pays
for an advertisement to be placed for a set amount of time. Under this model, the operating entity recognizes revenue over the period
of the contract by reference to the progress towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation.
Media
partners may also grant to the operating entity rebates mainly based on gross advertisement spending (i) in the form of advances to suppliers
for future traffic acquisition; (ii) to net off the account payables the operating entity owed to them; or (iii) in cash. The operating
entity has control in the service rendered to its advertisers before delivery and acts as the principal under this business model, and,
therefore recognizes revenue earned and costs incurred related to these transactions on a gross basis. Under this arrangement, the rebates
earned from the media partners are recorded as a reduction of cost of services.
For
the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we had revenue of $23.50 million and $9.16 million, respectively, and net income of
$760,198 and $447,046, respectively. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we had total revenue of $28.23 million and $16.16
million, respectively, and net income of $969,752 and $244,587, respectively. Revenue derived from comprehensive advertisement services
accounted for 100% of its total revenue for both fiscal years.
Data
Privacy and Security
The
business of the operating entity does not require obtaining personal data from Internet users. The data it acquires is mainly the customer
acquisition costs of its advertisers and conversion rate, which does not involve personal private data. These data are generated and
stored at media platforms where the operating entity places ads for its advertisers, such as ByteDance and Tencent, and are protected
by the policies of these platforms.
Suppliers
The
operating entity engages suppliers which are mainstream media platforms or their key agents, such as Tencent and Toutiao. The cooperation
with them is based on their quotes and services and the operating entity will place ads on media platforms, such as Tencent and Toutiao.
Below are the lists of the major suppliers of the operating entity

The
major factors that the operating entity would consider when selecting suppliers are their fee quotes, reverting speed, payment period,
and industry information output. The operating entity maintains a long-term partnership with its suppliers and rarely change them.
Customers,
Sales, and Marketing
The
operating entity values having professional operation abilities and maintaining high ROI of placing ads for its advertisers in the healthcare
industry. As a result, most of its advertisers would actively seek for cooperation with it instead of being solicited by the operating
entity. In addition, media platforms which are familiar with the operating entity’s expertise in the healthcare industry often
refer advertisers to it. The operating entity generally does not market itself to potential advertisers.
The
operating entity usually enters into framework agreements with advertisers who intend to acquire ad inventory through it over a period
of time (usually a year or shorter). If it is asked to run a specific advertising campaign for a short period (usually for social media
marketing services), it may enter into one-off agreements with the advertisers. The operating entity’s contracts with its advertisers
generally do not include exclusive obligations to use its services, and its advertisers are generally free to place their ads through
other advertising agencies or work with multiple advertising agencies on a specific advertising campaign. During the fiscal years ended
June 30, 2023 and 2022, the operating entity had 393 and 243 advertisers, respectively.

Industry
According
the iResearch Report, in 2020, the online marketing industry in China grew continually, with a market scale of RMB766.60 billion (approximately
$107.32 billion), and the market scale of mobile ads, which is an important part of the online marketing industry, reached RMB672.50
billion (approximately $94.15 billion) in 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic advanced this trend and resulted in increase in the mobile ad market,
which accounted for 87.7% of the online ad market. It is estimated by iResearch that the mobile ad market will reach RMB1.17 trillion
(approximately $0.16 trillion) in 2023. The fast expansion of mobile ad market is an essential element propelling the increase of operating
entity’s business, since mobile ads serve as an important form for the operating entity to place online marketing ads, especially
online short video ads.
The
growth of healthcare industry in China also gives a boost to the operating entity’s development. According to the “Health
China 2030” Plan Outline, a plan made by the State Council of the PRC to promote the advancement of healthy China and improve people’s
health, the scale of health services industry is estimated to exceed RMB16 trillion (approximately $2.24 trillion) in 2030. Healthcare
markets have already reached RMB13 trillion (approximately $1.82 trillion) in 2020, and China has become the second largest market in
these fields globally.2
In
the meantime, the Internet health market is also booming, with a market scale of RMB342.64 billion (approximately $47.97 billion) in
2020.3 The peak of monthly active users (“MAUs”) of online medical treatment, an important part of Internet health
market, has exceeded 60 million.4 Online medical treatment has become an essential medical services channel in China. This
has been enhanced by the COVID-19 pandemic, especially during lockdowns when people are required to quarantine at home and have limited
access to treatment at hospitals in person. The rapid growing trend of the Internet health market, especially online medical treatment,
has triggered an increasing need for customized and efficient online marketing solutions from advertisers in the healthcare industry,
which constitutes a conducive environment for the operating entity to grow its business.

Competition
The
online marketing industry in China is highly fragmented and competitive. Top-tier service providers with various distribution channels
and technology advantages are expected to prevail in the future.
Online
marketing solution providers compete primarily on access to media resources, size of advertiser base, experienced management and service
professionals, sufficiency of funding, quality of service, brand recognition, optimization capability, and technological competency.
In addition, as a professional online marketing solution provider specifically engaged in marketing for advertisers in the healthcare
industry, the operating entity still faces the competition against competitors whose advertiser base covers various industries.
However,
we believe that the operating entity’s focus on healthcare industry also makes it stand out from its competitors. The operating
entity can effectively compete with its competitors with its in-depth knowledge of the marketing need of advertisers in the healthcare
industry and its well-established business relationship with advertisers in this industry.
Employees
The
operating entity had 29, 32, and 20 full-time employees as of December 31, 2023, June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The following
table sets forth the number of its full-time employees in the past three fiscal years respectively:

regulations, the operating entity participates in various employee social security plans that are organized by applicable local municipal
and provincial governments, including housing, pension, medical, work-related injury, maternity, and unemployment benefit plans. The
operating entity does not have contractor workers.
We
believe the operating entity maintains a good working relationship with its employees, and it has not experienced material labor disputes
in the past. None of its employees are represented by labor unions.

The
operating entity does not maintain director liability insurance, property insurance, business interruption insurance, or general third-party

REGULATIONS
This
section sets forth a summary of the principal PRC laws, regulations, and rules relevant to our business and operations in PRC.
Regulation
on Foreign Investment
Investment
activities in China by foreign investors are principally governed by the Negative List and the Catalogue of Industries for Encouraging
Foreign Investment (the “Encouraging Catalogue”), which were promulgated and are amended from time to time by the NDRC and
the MOFCOM. The Negative List and the Encouraging Catalogue classify industries into three categories with regard to foreign investment:
(i) “encouraged,” (ii) “restricted,” and (iii) “prohibited.”
The
currently effective Negative List is the 2021 Negative List, which was published by the MOFCOM and NDRC on December 27, 2021 and became
effective on January 1, 2022. In addition, in December 2020, the MOFCOM and the NDRC also jointly promulgated the Encouraged Foreign
Investment Industry Catalogue (2020), which became effective in January 2021. Industries that are not listed in the 2021 Negative List
are permitted areas for foreign investments and are generally open to foreign investment unless specifically restricted by other PRC
regulations. Some restricted industries are limited to equity or contractual joint ventures, while in some cases Chinese partners are
required to hold majority interests in such joint ventures. In addition, projects in the restricted category may be subject to higher-level
government approval requirements. Foreign investors are not allowed to invest in industries in the prohibited category. We do not engage
in any restricted or prohibited industries.
In
addition, an FIE in the PRC is required to comply with other regulations on its incorporation, operation and changes. On March 15, 2019,
the PRC National People’s Congress adopted the PRC Foreign Investment Law, which became effective on January 1, 2020. Pursuant
to the PRC Foreign Investment Law, the PRC will grant national treatment to FIEs, except for those FIEs that operate in industries that
fall within “restricted” or “prohibited” categories as prescribed in the 2021 Negative List to be released or
approved by the State Council.
On
December 26, 2019, the State Council promulgated the Implementation Rules to the Foreign Investment Law, which became effective on January
1, 2020. The implementation rules further clarify that the state encourages and promotes foreign investment, protects the lawful rights
and interests of foreign investors, regulates foreign investment administration, continues to optimize a foreign investment environment,
and advances a higher-level opening. On December 30, 2019, the MOFCOM and the SAMR jointly promulgated the Measures for Information Reporting
on Foreign Investment, which became effective on January 1, 2020. Pursuant to the Measures for Information Reporting on Foreign Investment,
where a foreign investor carries out investment activities in PRC, directly or indirectly, the foreign investor or the FIE shall submit
the investment information to the competent commerce department.

to the SAFE Circular 13, PRC residents or entities could register with qualified banks in connection with their establishment or control
of an offshore entity established for the purpose of overseas investment or financing. The qualified banks, under the supervision of
SAFE, directly examine the applications and conduct the registration.
Regulations
Related to Taxation
Enterprise
Income Tax
Pursuant
to the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, which was issued by the National People’s Congress on March 16, 2007 and last revised by
the SCNPC on December 29, 2018, and the Regulation on the Implementation of the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, issued by the State Council
on December 6, 2007 and became effective on January 1, 2008 and recently amended on April 23, 2019 and became effective on the same date,
both domestic and foreign-invested enterprises established under the laws of foreign countries or regions whose “de facto management
bodies” are located in the PRC are considered resident enterprises, and will generally be subject to the PRC Enterprise Income
Tax Law at the rate of 25% of their global income. The defined “de facto management bodies” are “establishments that
carry out substantial and overall management and control over production and operations, personnel, accounting, and properties”
of the enterprise. The Notice on Issues about the Determination of Chinese-Controlled Enterprises Registered Abroad as Resident Enterprises
on the Basis of Their Body of Actual Management issued by the SAT on April 22, 2009 and effective on January 1, 2008 and partly amended
on December 29, 2017 and became effective on the same date, sets up a more specific definition of “de facto management bodies”
standard.
Value-added
Tax and Business Tax
Pursuant
to the Provisional Regulations on Value-added Tax promulgated by the State Council on December 13, 1993 and amended on November 10, 2008,
February 6, 2016, and November 19, 2017, and the Implementing Rules of the Provisional Regulations on Value-added Tax promulgated by
Ministry of Finance on December 25, 1993 and amended on December 15, 2008 and October 28, 2011 (collectively, the “VAT Law”),
all taxpayers selling goods, providing processing, repairing or replacement services or importing goods within the PRC shall pay value-added
tax. For general VAT taxpayers selling or importing goods or selling services other than those specifically listed in the VAT Law, the
value-added tax rate is 17%, which was adjusted to 13% according to the Circular of the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration
of Taxation on Adjustment of Value-Added Tax Rates promulgated jointly by the Ministry of Finance and the SAT on April 4, 2018 and the
Announcement on Policies for Deepening the VAT Reform promulgated jointly by the Ministry of Finance, the SAT and the General Administration
of Customs on March 20, 2019. For general VAT taxpayers selling services and intangible assets, the value-added tax rate is 6%. Furthermore,
the value-added tax rate shall be 3% for small-scale taxpayers, unless otherwise stipulated by the State Council.
Regulations
Relating to Dividend Withholding Tax
Pursuant
to the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law and its implementation rules, if a non-resident enterprise has not set up an organization or establishment
in the PRC, or has set up an organization or establishment in the PRC but the income derived has no actual connection with such organization
or establishment in the PRC, it will be subject to a withholding tax on its PRC-sourced income at a rate of 10%. Pursuant to the Notice
of the State Administration of Taxation on the Issues concerning the Application of the Dividend Clauses of Tax Agreements, if the relevant
PRC tax authorities determine, in their discretion, that a company benefits from such reduced income tax rate due to a structure or arrangement
that is primarily tax-driven, such PRC tax authorities may adjust the preferential tax treatment. The SAT issued the Announcement of
State Taxation Administration on Promulgation of the Administrative Measures on Non-resident Taxpayers Enjoying Treaty Benefits (the
“SAT Circular 35”) on October 14, 2019, which became effective on January 1, 2020 and further simplified the procedures for
enjoying treaty benefits. According to the SAT Circular 35, no approvals from the tax authorities are required for a non-resident taxpayer
to enjoy treaty benefits, where a non-resident taxpayer self-assesses and concludes that it satisfies the criteria for claiming treaty
benefits, it may enjoy treaty benefits at the time of tax declaration or at the time of withholding through the withholding agent, but
it shall gather and retain the relevant materials as required for future inspection, and accept follow-up administration by the tax authorities.
There are also other conditions for enjoying the reduced withholding tax rate according to other relevant tax rules and regulations.
According to the Circular on Several Issues regarding the “Beneficial Owner” in Tax Treaties which was issued on February
3, 2018 by the SAT and effective on April 1, 2018, when determining the applicant’s status of the “beneficial owner”
regarding tax treatments in connection with dividends, interests or royalties in the tax treaties, several factors, including without
limitation, whether the applicant is obligated to pay more than 50% of its income in twelve months to residents in third country or region,
whether the business operated by the applicant constitutes the actual business activities, and whether the counterparty country or region
to the tax treaties does not levy any tax or grant tax exemption on relevant incomes or levy tax at an extremely low rate, will be taken
into account, and it will be analyzed according to the actual circumstances of the specific cases.
Tax
on Indirect Transfer
On
February 3, 2015, the SAT issued the SAT Circular 7, as amended in 2017 by the SAT. Pursuant to the SAT Circular 7, an “indirect
transfer” of assets, including equity interests in a PRC resident enterprise, by non-PRC resident enterprises, may be recharacterized
and treated as a direct transfer of PRC taxable assets, if such arrangement does not have a reasonable commercial purpose and was established
for the purpose of avoiding payment of PRC enterprise income tax. As a result, gains derived from such indirect transfer may be subject
to PRC enterprise income tax. When determining whether there is a “reasonable commercial purpose” in the transaction arrangement,
features to be taken into consideration include, inter alia, whether the main value of the equity interest of the relevant offshore enterprise
derives directly or indirectly from PRC taxable assets; whether the assets of the relevant offshore enterprise mainly consists of direct
or indirect investment in China or if its income is mainly derived from China; and whether the offshore enterprise and its subsidiaries
directly or indirectly holding PRC taxable assets have a real commercial nature which is evidenced by their actual function and risk
exposure. Pursuant to the SAT Circular 7, where the payer fails to withhold any or sufficient tax, the transferor shall declare and pay
such tax to the tax authority by itself within the statutory time limit. Late payment of applicable tax will subject the transferor to
default interest. The SAT Circular 7 does not apply to sale of shares transactions by investors through a public stock exchange where
such shares were acquired on a public stock exchange. On October 17, 2017, the SAT issued the SAT Circular 37, which was amended on June
15, 2018 by the SAT. The SAT Circular 37 further elaborates the relevant implemental rules regarding the calculation, reporting, and
payment obligations of the withholding tax by the non-resident enterprises. Nonetheless, there remain uncertainties as to the interpretation
and application of the SAT Circular 7. The SAT Circular 7 may be determined by the tax authorities to be applicable to our offshore transactions
or sale of our shares or those of our offshore subsidiaries where non-resident enterprises, being the transferors, were involved.
M&A
Rules and Overseas Listings
Pursuant
to the M&A Rules, which was promulgated jointly by the MOFCOM, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission,
the SAT, the SAMR, CSRC, and the SAFE on August 8, 2006 and became effective on September 8, 2006 and was subsequently amended and became
effective on June 22, 2009, “merger and acquisition of domestic enterprises by foreign investors” shall mean any of the following
where a foreign investor: (i) purchases the equity interest of any shareholder in a domestic non-foreign-invested enterprise (“domestic
company”); or (ii) subscribes for any increased capital of a domestic company so as to convert such domestic company into and established
as a foreign-invested enterprise; or (iii) establishes a foreign-invested enterprise through which it purchases and operates the assets
of a domestic enterprise by agreement; or (iv) a foreign investor purchases the assets of a domestic enterprise by agreement and then
invest such assets to establish a foreign-invested enterprise and operates such assets. The merger and acquisition of a domestic company
with or by a domestic company, enterprise or individual, which has a related party relationship with the target company, in the name
of an overseas company legitimately incorporated or controlled by the domestic company, enterprise or individual, shall be subject to
the examination and approval of the MOFCOM. The M&A Rules also require that an offshore special purpose vehicle, or a special purpose
vehicle formed for overseas listing purposes and controlled directly or indirectly by PRC companies or individuals, shall obtain the
approval of the CSRC prior to overseas listing and trading of such special purpose vehicle’s securities on an overseas stock exchange.
While
the application of the M&A Rules remains unclear, we believe, based on the advice of our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law Firm, that
the CSRC approval is not required in the context of this offering, because (i) the CSRC currently has not issued any definitive
rule or interpretation concerning whether offerings under the prospectus are subject to the M&A Rules and (ii) we established
our Haoxi Beijing by means of direct investment rather than by merger or requisition of the equity or assets of a “PRC domestic
company” as such term is defined under the M&A Rules. However, uncertainties still exist as to how the M&A Rules will
be interpreted and implemented, and the opinion of our PRC counsel is subject to any new laws, rules, and regulations or detailed implementations
and interpretations in any form relating to the M&A Rules (see “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—Any
requirement to obtain prior approval under the M&A Rules and/or any other regulations promulgated by relevant PRC regulatory agencies
in the future could limit or delay this offering and failure to obtain any such approvals, if required, could have a material adverse
effect on our business, operating results and reputation, as well as the trading price of our Class A Ordinary Shares, and could also
create uncertainties for this offering and affect our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors outside China”).
On
July 6, 2021, the General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the General Office of the PRC State Council
jointly released the Illegal Securities Opinions, pursuant to which China will perfect laws and regulations on data security, cross-border
data flow and management of confidential information, and require the speed-up of the revision of the provisions on strengthening the
confidentiality and archives management related to overseas issuance and listing of securities, and tightening the subject responsibility
of overseas listed companies for information security. In addition, the Illegal Securities Opinions refer to further deepening cooperation
on cross-border audit supervision on overseas-listed Chinese companies and call for the establishment and improvement of the extraterritorial
application system of the laws governing capital market. As of the date of this prospectus, no official guidance or related implementation
rules have been issued yet, and the Illegal Securities Opinions remain unclear on how the law will be interpreted, amended and implemented
by the relevant PRC governmental authorities, but the Illegal Securities Opinions and any related implementing rules to be enacted
may subject the operating entity to compliance requirements in the future.
On
February 17, 2023, the CSRC, released the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, which came into effect on March 31, 2023. The Overseas Listing
Trial Measures adopt a filing-based regulatory regime for both direct and indirect overseas offering and listing by domestic companies
in mainland China of equity shares, depository receipts, corporate bonds convertible to equity shares, and other equity securities. According
to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, Chinese domestic companies that seek to offer and list securities in overseas markets, either
in direct or indirect means, are required to fulfill the filing procedures with the CSRC and report relevant information. If a domestic
company fails to complete the filing procedures or conceals any material fact or falsifies any major content in its filing documents,
the CSRC may order rectification, issue warnings to such domestic company, and impose a fine ranging from RMB1 million to RMB10 million
(approximately $145,000 to $1,450,000) and directly responsible executives and other directly responsible personnel shall be warned and
be imposed fines. Also, the controlling shareholder(s) and actual controllers of the domestic company that organize or instruct the aforementioned
violations shall be warned and be subject to fines, and directly responsible executives and other directly responsible personnel shall
be subject to fines. If the issuer meets both of the following conditions, the overseas offering and listing shall be determined as an
indirect overseas offering and listing by a domestic company: (i) any of the total assets, net assets, revenues or profits of the domestic
operating entities of the issuer in the most recent accounting year accounts for more than 50% of the corresponding figure in the issuer’s
audited CFS for the same period; (ii) its major operational activities are carried out in China or its main places of business are located
in China or the senior managers in charge of operation and management of the issuer are mostly Chinese citizens or are domiciled in China.
Where a domestic company seeks to indirectly offer and list securities in an overseas market, the issuer shall designate a major domestic
operating entity responsible for all filing procedures with the CSRC. The required filing
scope is not limited to the initial public offering, but also includes any subsequent overseas securities offering, single or multiple
acquisition(s), share swap, transfer of shares or other means to seek an overseas direct or indirect listing and a secondary listing
or dual major listing of issuers already listed overseas.
On
the same day as the Overseas Listing Trial Measures released, the CSRC also held a press conference for the release of the Overseas Listing
Trial Measures and issued the Notice on Administration for the Filing of Overseas Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies, which clarifies
that on or prior to the effective date of the Overseas Listing Trial Measures, domestic companies that have already submitted valid applications
for overseas offering and listing but have not obtained clearance from overseas regulatory authorities or stock exchanges may reasonably
arrange the timing for submitting their filing applications with the CSRC, and must complete the filing before the completion of their
overseas offering and listing. Subsequent securities offerings of an issuer in the same overseas market where it has previously offered
and listed securities shall be filed with the CSRC within 3 working days after the offering is completed. Based on the foregoing, as
advised by our PRC counsel, Sino Pro Law Firm, since the operating entity accounted for more than 50% of our consolidated revenues, profit,
total assets or net assets for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and
the key components of our operations are carried out in China, this offering is considered an indirect offering by China-based companies,
and we are, therefore, required to file with the CSRC pursuant to the Overseas Listing Trial Measures within three working days after
the completion of this offering.
In
addition, an overseas offering and listing is prohibited under any of the following circumstances: (1) if the intended securities
offering and listing is specifically prohibited by national laws and regulations and relevant provisions; (2) if the intended securities
offering and listing may constitute a threat to or endangers national security as reviewed and determined by competent authorities under
the State Council in accordance with law; (3) if, in the past three years, the domestic enterprise or its controlling shareholders
or actual controllers have committed corruption, bribery, embezzlement, misappropriation of property, or other criminal offenses disruptive
to the order of the socialist market economy; (4) the domestic companies are currently under judicial investigation for suspicion of
criminal offenses, or are under investigation for suspicion of major violations, and no conclusion has yet been made thereof; (5) if
there are material ownership disputes over the equity held by the domestic company’s controlling shareholder or by other shareholders
that are controlled by the controlling shareholder and/or actual controller. Overseas offering and listing by domestic companies shall
be made in strict compliance with relevant laws, administrative regulations and rules concerning national security in spheres of foreign
investment, cybersecurity, data security and etc., and duly fulfill their obligations to protect national security. If the intended overseas
offering and listing necessitates a national security review, relevant security review procedures shall be completed according to law
before the application for such offering and listing is submitted to any overseas parties such as securities regulatory agencies and
trading venues. The domestic companies may be required to rectify, make certain commitment, divest business or assets, or take any other
measures as per the competent authorities’ requirements, in order to eliminate or avert any impact on national security resulting
from such overseas offering and listing.
On
February 24, 2023, the CSRC and other relevant government authorities promulgated the Provision on Confidentiality issued in 2009, which
became effective on March 31, 2023. Pursuant to the Provision on Confidentiality, where a domestic enterprise provides or publicly discloses
documents and materials involving state secrets and working secrets of state organs to the relevant securities companies, securities
service institutions, overseas regulatory authorities and other entities and individuals, or provides or publicly discloses such information
through its overseas listing subjects, it shall report to the competent department with the examination and approval authority for approval
in accordance with the law, and submit to the secrecy administration department of the same level for filing. Domestic enterprises providing
accounting archives or copies thereof to entities and individuals concerned such as securities companies, securities service institutions
and overseas regulatory authorities shall complete the corresponding procedures pursuant to the relevant provisions of the State. We
believe that this offering does not involve the leaking of any state secret or working secret of government agencies, or the harming
of national security and public interests. However, we may be required to perform additional procedures in connection with the provision
of accounting archives.
Regulations
Related to Employee Share Options
According
to the SAFE Circular 37, if a non-listed special purpose vehicle grants equity-based incentives to its directors, supervisors, senior
officers in the domestic enterprise directly or indirectly controlled by it, as well as other employees in employment or labor relations
with the company by using the company’s stock rights or options, the relevant domestic individual residents may submit materials
to the foreign exchange office to apply for foreign exchange registration before exercise of their rights.
On
February 15, 2012, the SAFE issued the Circular of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on Issues Concerning the Administration
of Foreign Exchange Used for Domestic Individuals’ Participation in Equity Incentive Plans of Companies Listed Overseas (the “SAFE
Circular 7”), to regulate the foreign exchange administration of PRC citizens and non-PRC citizens who reside in China for a continuous
period of not less than one year, with a few exceptions, who participate in stock incentive plans of overseas publicly listed companies.
According to the SAFE Circular 7 and other related rules and regulations, such individuals who participate in any employee stock ownership
plan or stock option plan of an overseas listed company, are required to register with SAFE or its local branches through a qualified
PRC agent, which could be the PRC subsidiaries of such overseas listed company or other qualified institution selected by the PRC subsidiaries,
and complete other procedures with respect to the stock incentive plan. In addition, the PRC agent is required to amend the SAFE registration
with respect to the stock incentive plan if there is any material change to the stock incentive plan, the PRC agent or other material
changes. The PRC agent must, on behalf of these individuals who have the right to exercise the employee share options, apply to the SAFE
or its local branches for an annual quota for the payment of foreign currencies in connection with these individuals’ exercise
of the employee share options. Such individuals’ foreign exchange income received from the sale of stocks and dividends distributed
by the overseas listed company and any other income shall be fully remitted into a collective foreign currency account in China opened
and managed by the PRC subsidiaries of the overseas listed company or the PRC agent before distribution to such individuals.
In
addition, in October 2021, the SAT circulated the Notice on Measures to Further Deepen Reform in the Field of Taxation and to Foster
and Stimulate the Vitality of Market Entities, any enterprise implementing the equity incentive should submit report form and other required
information to the competent tax authority within 15 days of the month following the decision to implement the equity incentive. If the
equity incentive plan has been implemented but not yet finished, the report form and related information shall be submitted to the competent
tax authority before the end of 2021.
Regulations
Related to Anti-Monopoly and Anti-Unfair Competition
Pursuant
to the Anti-Unfair Competition Law promulgated by the SCNPC on September 2, 1993 and latest amended on April 23, 2019 with immediate
effect, when trading in the market, business operators should abide by the principles of voluntariness, equality, fairness, honesty and
credibility, and abide by laws and recognized business ethics. Unfair competition refers to a business operator, in violation of the
Anti-unfair Competition Law, disrupts the competition order and infringes the legitimate rights and interests of other business operators
or consumers. A business operator in violation of Anti-unfair Competition Law may be subject to civil liability and administrative penalties.
A business operator whose legitimate rights and interests are damaged by any act of unfair competition may file a lawsuit.
The
Anti-Monopoly Law of the PRC promulgated by the SCNPC which became effective on August 1, 2008 and the Interim Provisions on the Review
of Concentrations of Undertakings promulgated by SAMR which became effective on December 1, 2020 requires that transactions which are
deemed concentrations and involve parties with specified turnover thresholds must be cleared by the SAMR before they can be completed.
Where the participation in concentration of undertakings by way of foreign-funded merger and acquisition of domestic enterprises or any
other method which involves national security, the examination of concentration of undertakings shall be carried out pursuant to the
provisions of this law and examination of national security shall be carried out pursuant to the relevant provisions of the state. On
October 23, 2021, the SCNPC published for public comment the Anti-monopoly Law (Revised Draft), which provides, among others, that the
market regulation department of the State Council shall be responsible for anti-monopoly law enforcement, and that business operators
shall not abuse data, algorithms, technology, capital advantages and platform rules to exclude or limit competition. The draft also requires
relevant government authorities strengthen the examination of concentration of undertakings in areas such as finance, media science and
technology, and enhances penalties for violation of the regulations regarding concentration of undertakings.
On
February 7, 2021, the Anti-monopoly Commission of the State Council of the PRC issued the Anti-Monopoly Guidelines for the Internet Platform
Economy Sector that specifies some of activities of Internet platforms may be determined to be monopolistic, and concentrations of undertakings
involving variable interest entities are subject to anti-monopoly scrutiny as well.
Employment
Laws
Pursuant
to the Labor Contract Law of the PRC promulgated on June 29, 2007, which was last revised on December 28, 2012 and became effective on
July 1, 2013, every employer shall enter into a written contract of employment with each of its employees. No employer may force its
employees to work beyond the time limit and each employer must pay overtime compensation to its employees. The wage of each employee
is to be no less than the local standard on minimum wages. According to the Labor Law of the PRC promulgated on July 5, 1994, last revised
on December 29, 2018 and became effective on the same day, every employer must ensure workplace safety and sanitation in accordance with
national regulations and provide relevant training to its employees.
Pursuant
to the Social Insurance Law of the PRC promulgated on October 28, 2010, which was last amended on December 29, 2018 and became effective
on the same day, as well as other relevant provisions, an employee shall participate in five types of social insurance funds, including
pension, medical, unemployment, maternity and occupational injury insurance. The premiums for maternity insurance and occupational injury
insurance are paid by the employer, while the premiums for pension insurance, medical insurance and unemployment insurance are paid by
both the employer and the employee. If the employer fails to fully contribute to social insurance funds on time, the collection agency
for such social insurance may demand the employer to make full payment or to pay the shortfall within a set period and collect a late
charge. If the employer fails to pay after the due date, the relevant government administrative body may impose a fine on the employer.
Pursuant
to the Regulation on the Administration of Housing Provident Funds promulgated on April 3, 1999, which was last revised on March 24,
2019 and became effective on the same day, an employer must register with the competent managing center for housing funds and shall contribute
to the Housing Provident Fund for any employee on its payroll. Where an employer fails to pay up Housing Provident Funds within the prescribed
time limit, the employer may be fined and ordered to make payment within a certain period.
According
to our PRC legal counsel, the operating entity has signed labor contracts with all of its employees. However, the operating entity did
not pay social insurance contributions and housing provident fund contributions in full for all of the employees. This may subject it
to fines, according to the relevant employment law (see “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Doing Business in China—Failure
to make adequate contributions to various employee benefit plans and withhold individual income tax on employees’ salaries as required
by PRC regulations may subject the operating entity to penalties”). As of the date of this prospectus, no administrative actions,
fines, or penalties have been imposed by the relevant PRC government authorities with respect to such non-compliance, nor has any order
been received by the operating entity to settle the outstanding amount of social insurance contributions and housing provident fund contributions.
Such fees and fines, if and when imposed, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Pursuant
to our amended and restated articles of association, unless otherwise determined by our Company in a general meeting, we are required
to have a minimum of three directors and the exact number of directors will be determined from time to time by our board of directors.
Under
our amended and restated articles of association, a director may be appointed by ordinary resolution or by the directors. An appointment
of a director may be on terms that the director will automatically retire from office (unless he has sooner vacated office) at the next
or a subsequent annual general meeting or upon any specified event or after any specified period in a written agreement between our Company
and the director, if any, but no such term will be implied in the absence of express provision. It is expected that, whether by ordinary
resolution or by the directors, each director will be appointed on the terms that the director will hold office until the appointment
of the director’s successor or the director’s re-appointment at the next annual general meeting, unless the director has
sooner vacated office.
For additional
information, see “Description of Share Capital—Directors.”
Family
Relationships
None
of our directors or executive officers has a family relationship as defined in Item 401 of Regulation S-K.
Board
of Directors
Our
board of directors consists of five directors. Our board of directors has determined that our three independent directors, Jia Liu, Changmao
Su, and Jianbing Zhang satisfy the “independence” requirements of the Nasdaq corporate governance rules.
Duties
of Directors
Under
Cayman Islands law, all of our directors owe three types of duties to us: (i) statutory duties, (ii) fiduciary duties, and (iii) common
law duties. The Cayman Companies Act imposes a number of statutory duties on a director. Under Cayman Islands law, the fiduciary duties
owed by a director include (a) a duty to act in good faith in what the director considers are in the best interests of the company, (b)
a duty to exercise their powers in the company’s interests and only for the purposes for which they were given, (c) a duty to avoid
improperly fettering the exercise of the director’s future discretion, (d) a duty to avoid any conflict of interest (whether actual
or potential) between the director’s duty to the company and the director’s personal interests or a duty owed to a third
party, and (e) a duty not to misuse the company’s property (including any confidential information and trade secrets). The common
law duties owed by a director are those to exercise appropriate skill and care. The relevant threshold measure for such standard is that
of a reasonable diligent person having both the general knowledge, skill, and experience that may reasonably be expected of a person
carrying out the same functions as are carried out by that director in relation to the company, and the general knowledge, skill, and
experience that that director has. In fulfilling their duty to us, our directors must ensure compliance with our amended and restated
memorandum and articles of association, as amended and restated from time to time, and our shareholder resolutions. We have the right
to seek damages where certain duties owed by any of our directors are breached.
The
functions and powers of our board of directors include, among others:
|
● |
appointing officers and
determining the term of office of the officers; |
|
|
|
|
● |
exercising the borrowing
powers of the company and mortgaging the property of the company; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
maintaining or registering
a register of mortgages, charges, or other encumbrances of the company. |
Board
Oversight of Cybersecurity Risks
The
management of the operation and the business affairs of a Cayman Islands company lies within the power of its board of directors. Directors
of companies incorporated under the Cayman Companies Act are subject to both statutory obligations under the Cayman Companies Act as
well as fiduciary duties under the common law to the extent applicable to Cayman Islands companies. In addition to the statutory duties
which include duties such as reporting obligations, the maintenance of internal company registers, accounting requirements, etc., directors
of Cayman Islands companies owe fiduciary duties including the duty to act in good faith and in the best interests of the company as
well as a duty to act with care, skill and diligence under English common law principles. Maintaining sufficient protection against the
increasing risks associated with cybercrime is clearly one of the key challenges to the commercial world and in our view, it is one of
the duties of the Company’s board of directors to oversee cybersecurity risks.
Our
board of directors plays an active role in monitoring cybersecurity risks and is committed to the prevention, timely detection, and mitigation
of the effects of any such incidents on our operations. The board has delegated the responsibility of overseeing cybersecurity risks
to the management of the Company and requires prompt reporting by the management to the board if any cybersecurity risks are detected.
The Company has a team of 2 employees responsible for cyber security issues and they report to the management. The board receives regular
reports from our management, including our technical director, on material cybersecurity risks and the degree of our exposure to those
risks, including in connection with our supply chain, suppliers and other service providers. While the board oversees our cybersecurity
risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is
the most effective approach for addressing our cybersecurity risks and that our board leadership structure supports this approach.
Terms
of Directors and Executive Officers
Under
our amended and restated articles of association, a director may be appointed by ordinary resolution or by the directors. An appointment
of a director may be on terms that the director will automatically retire from office (unless he has sooner vacated office) at the next
or a subsequent annual general meeting or upon any specified event or after any specified period in a written agreement between our Company
and the director, if any, but no such term will be implied in the absence of express provision. It is expected that, whether by ordinary
resolution or by the directors, each director will be appointed on the terms that the director will hold office until the appointment
of the director’s successor or the director’s re-appointment at the next annual general meeting, unless the director has
sooner vacated office.
All of our
executive officers are appointed by and serve at the discretion of our board of directors.
Qualification
Under
our amended and restated articles of association, a director is not required to hold any shares in our Company by way of qualification.
A director who is not a shareholder of our Company is nevertheless entitled to attend and speak at general meetings.
Employment
Agreements and Indemnification Agreements
We
have entered into employment agreements with each of our executive officers. Pursuant to employment agreements, the form of which is
filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, we will agree to employ each of our executive
officers for a specified time period, which may be renewed upon both parties’ agreement 30 days before the end of the current employment
term. We may terminate the employment for cause, at any time, without notice or remuneration, for certain acts of the executive officer,
including the commitments of any serious or persistent breach or non-observance of the terms and conditions of the employment, conviction
of a criminal offense, willful disobedience of a lawful and reasonable order, fraud or dishonesty, receipt of bribery, or severe neglect
of his or her duties. An executive officer may terminate his or her employment at any time with a one-month prior written notice. Each
executive officer agrees to hold, both during and after the employment agreement expires, in strict confidence and not to use or disclose
to any person, corporation or other entity without written consent, any confidential information.
We
have also entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers. Under these agreements, we have
agreed to indemnify our directors and executive officers against certain liabilities and expenses incurred by such persons in connection
with claims made by reason of their being a director or officer of our company.
Compensation
of Directors and Executive Officers
For
the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, we paid an aggregate of RMB422,226 (approximately $60,826) as compensation to our executive officers
and directors. None of our non-employee directors have any service contracts with us that provide for benefits upon termination of employment.
We have not set aside or accrued any amount to provide pension, retirement, or other similar benefits to our directors and executive
officers.
Insider
Participation Concerning Executive Compensation
Our

Committees
of the Board of Directors
We
have established three committees under the Board of Directors: an audit committee, a compensation committee, and a nominating and corporate
governance committee. Our independent directors serve on each of the committees. We have adopted a charter for each of the three committees.
Each committee’s members and functions are described below.
Audit

chairperson of our audit committee. We have determined that each of our independent directors also satisfy the “independence”
requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act. Our board also has determined that Jia Liu qualifies as an audit committee
financial expert within the meaning of the SEC rules or possesses financial sophistication within the meaning of the Nasdaq listing rules.
The audit committee oversees our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of the financial statements of our company.

|
|

our code of business conduct and ethics, including reviewing the adequacy and effectiveness of our procedures to ensure proper compliance. |
Compensation
Committee. Our compensation committee consists of our three independent directors, Jia Liu, Changmao Su, and Jianbing Zhang. Changmao
Su is the chairperson of our compensation committee. The compensation committee assists the board in reviewing and approving the compensation
structure, including all forms of compensation, relating to our directors and executive officers. Our CEO may not be present at any committee
meeting during which his compensation is deliberated. The compensation committee is responsible for, among other things:
|
● |
reviewing and approving
the total compensation package for our most senior executive officers; |
|
|
|
|
● |
approving and overseeing
the total compensation package for our executives other than the most senior executive officers; |

from management; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
reviewing programs or similar
arrangements, annual bonuses, employee pension and welfare benefit plans. |
Nominating
and Corporate Governance Committee. Our nominating and corporate governance committee consists of our three independent directors,
Jia Liu, Changmao Su, and Jianbing Zhang. Jianbing Zhang is the chairperson of our nominating and corporate governance committee. The
nominating and corporate governance committee assists the board of directors in selecting individuals qualified to become our directors
and in determining the composition of the board and its committees. The nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible
for, among other things:
|
● |
identifying and recommending
nominees for appointment or re-appointment to our board of directors or for appointment to fill any vacancy; |
|
|

our board of directors its current composition in light of the characteristics of independence, age, skills, experience and availability
of service to us; |
|
|
|
|
● |
identifying and recommending
to our board the directors to serve as members of committees; |
|
|
|
|
● |
advising the board, periodically,
with respect to significant developments in the law and practice of corporate governance, as well as our compliance with applicable
laws and regulations, and making recommendations to our board of directors on all matters of corporate governance and on any corrective
action to be taken; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
monitoring compliance with
our code of business conduct and ethics, including reviewing the adequacy and effectiveness of our procedures to ensure proper compliance. |
Controlled
Company
Upon completion of this offering, our CEO,
Mr. Zhen Fan, will beneficially own approximately 90.02% of the aggregate voting power of our issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary
Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares as a group. Mr. Fan will have the ability to control matters requiring shareholder approval, including
the election of directors, amendment of memorandum and articles of association and approval of certain major corporate transactions in
accordance with the Cayman Companies Act. As a result, we will be deemed a “controlled company” for the purpose of the Nasdaq
listing rules. As a controlled company, we are permitted to elect to rely on certain exemptions from the obligations to comply with certain
corporate governance requirements, including:
|
● |
the requirement that our
director nominees be selected or recommended solely by independent directors; and |
|
● |
the requirement that we
have a nominating and corporate governance committee and a compensation committee that are composed entirely of independent directors
with a written charter addressing the purposes and responsibilities of the committees. |
Although
we do not intend to rely on the controlled company exemptions under the Nasdaq listing rules even if we are deemed a controlled company,
we could elect to rely on these exemptions in the future, and if so, you would not have the same protection afforded to shareholders
of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq.
Code of
Business Conduct and Ethics
Our
board of directors has adopted a code of ethics and conduct policy, which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 of the registration statement of which
this prospectus is a part and is applicable to all of our directors, officers, and employees. We have made our code of ethics and conduct
policy publicly available on our website, at https://ir.haoximedia.com.

A Ordinary Shares are not convertible. Class B Ordinary Shares are convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, into Class A Ordinary
Shares on a one-to-one basis. The right to convert shall be exercisable by the holder of the Class B Ordinary Shares delivering
a written notice to the Company that such holder elects to convert a specified number of Class B Ordinary Shares into Class A Ordinary
Shares.
Modification
of Rights of Shares
Whenever
our capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attaching to any class of share (unless otherwise provided by the
terms of issue of the shares of that class) may be varied either with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than two-thirds
of the issued shares of that class, or with the sanction of a resolution passed by a majority of not less than two-thirds of the holders
of shares of the class present in person or by proxy at a separate general meeting of the holders of shares of that class.
Unless
the terms on which a class of shares was issued state otherwise, the rights conferred on the shareholder holding shares of any class
shall not be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further shares ranking pari passu with the existing shares of that class.
Alteration
of Share Capital
Subject
to the Cayman Companies Act and our articles of association, our shareholders may, by ordinary resolution:
|
(a) |
increase our authorized
share capital by such sum, to be divided into shares of such classes and amounts as the resolution prescribes; |
|
|
|
|
(b) |
consolidate and divide
all or any of our share capital into shares of larger amount than our existing shares; |
|
|
|
|
(c) |
convert all or any of our
paid up shares into stock, and reconvert that stock into paid up shares of any denomination; |
|
(d) |
sub-divide our shares or
any of them into shares of an amount smaller than that fixed, so, however, that in the sub-division, the proportion between the amount
paid and the amount, if any, unpaid on each reduced share shall be the same as it was in case of the share from which the reduced
share is derived; and |
|
|
|
|
(e) |
cancel shares which, at
the date of the passing of the resolution, have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person and diminish the amount of our
share capital by the amount of the shares so cancelled. |
Subject
to the Cayman Companies Act and to any rights for the time being conferred on the shareholders holding a particular class of shares,
we may, by special resolution, reduce our share capital in any way.
Calls
on Shares
Subject
to the terms of allotment, the directors may from time to time make calls on the shareholders in respect of any monies unpaid on their
shares (whether on account of the nominal value of the shares or by way of premium or otherwise) and each shareholder shall (subject
to receiving at least 14 days’ notice specifying the time or times of payment), pay to us the amount called on his shares. Shareholders
registered as the joint holders of a share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect of the share.
Any
amount payable in respect of a share, whether on allotment or on a fixed date or otherwise, shall be deemed to be payable as a call.
If the amount is not paid when due the provisions of the articles shall apply as if the amount had become due and payable by virtue of
a call.
If
a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable the directors may give to the person from whom it is due not less than 14 clear
days’ notice requiring payment of the amount unpaid; any interest which may have accrued (the default rate is ten per cent per
annum); any expenses which have been incurred by the Company due to that person’s default. The directors shall be at liberty to
waive payment of the interest wholly or in part.
Lien
on Shares
We
have a first and paramount lien on all shares (whether fully paid up or not) registered in the name of a shareholder (whether solely
or jointly with others).
The
lien is for all monies payable to the Company by the Member or the Member’s estate: either alone or jointly with any other person,
whether or not that other person is a Member; and whether or not those monies are presently payable.
At
any time the directors may declare a share to be wholly or in part exempt from the lien on shares provisions in our articles of association.
We
may sell, in such manner as the directors think fit, any shares on which we have a lien if all of the following conditions are met: (a)
the sum in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable; (b) the Company gives notice to the shareholder holding the share (or
to the person entitled to it in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of that shareholder) demanding payment and stating that if the
notice is not complied with the shares may be sold and (c) that sum is not paid within 14 clear days after that notice is deemed to be
given under the articles of association.
Unclaimed
Dividend
A
dividend that remains unclaimed after a period of six years after it became due for payment shall be forfeited to, and shall cease to
remain owing by, the Company.
Forfeiture
or Surrender of Shares
If
a shareholder fails to pay any call or installment of a call in respect of partly paid shares on the day appointed for payment, the directors
may serve a notice on the shareholder requiring payment of the unpaid call or installment, together with any interest which may have
accrued. The notice must name a further day (not earlier than the expiration of 14 days from the date of the notice) on or before which
the payment required by the notice is to be made, and must state that in the event of non-payment at or before the time appointed, the
shares in respect of which the call is made will be liable to be forfeited.
If
the requirements of any such notice are not complied with, the directors may, before the payment required by the notice has been made,
resolve that any share in respect of which that notice has been given be forfeited. The forfeiture shall include all dividends or other
monies payable in respect of the forfeited share and not paid before the forfeiture.
A
forfeited share may be sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner as the directors determine either
to the former shareholder who held that share or to any other person. The forfeiture or surrender may be cancelled on such terms as the
directors think fit at any time before a sale, re-allotment or disposition.
A
person whose shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a shareholder in respect of the forfeited shares, but shall, notwithstanding
such forfeiture, remain liable to pay to us all monies which at the date of forfeiture were payable by him to us in respect of the shares
forfeited, however, the directors may waive payment wholly or in part. On forfeiture or surrender, (a) the name of the shareholder concerned
shall be removed from the register of members as the holder of those shares and that person shall cease to be a shareholder in respect
of those shares; and (b) that person shall surrender to the company for cancellation the certificate (if any) for the forfeited or surrendered
shares.
A
statutory declaration in writing that the declarant is a director or secretary, and that a share in the Company has been duly forfeited
or surrendered on a date stated in the declaration shall be conclusive evidence of the facts in the declaration as against all persons
claiming to be entitled to the particular share(s).
The directors
may accept the surrender for no consideration of any fully paid share.
Share
Premium Account
The
directors shall establish a share premium account and shall carry the credit of such account from time to time to a sum equal to the
amount or value of the premium paid on the issue of any share.
Redemption
and Purchase of Own Shares
Subject
to the Cayman Companies Act and our articles of association, we may:
|
(a) |
issue shares that are to
be redeemed or are liable to be redeemed, at our option or at the option of the shareholder holding those redeemable shares, in the
manner and upon the terms as may be determined, before the issue of those shares, by the directors; |
|
(b) |
with the consent by special
resolution of the shareholders holding shares of a particular class, vary the rights attaching to that class of shares so as to provide
that those shares are to be redeemed or are liable to be redeemed at the option of the Company on the terms and in the manner which
the directors determine at the time of such variation; |
|
(c) |
purchase our own shares
(including any redeemable shares) on the terms and in the manner which the directors determine at the time of such purchase; and |
|
(c) |
make a payment in respect
of the redemption or purchase of our own shares in any manner permitted by the Cayman Companies Act, including out of any combination
of the following: capital, its profits and the proceeds of a fresh issue of shares. |
Transfer
of Shares
The
instrument of transfer of any share shall be in an writing in any usual or common form or such other form as the directors may, in their
absolute discretion, approve and be executed for on behalf of the transferor and if in respect of a nil or partly paid up share, or if
so required by the directors, shall also be executed on behalf of the transferee and shall be accompanied by the share certificate (if
any) to which it relates and such other evidence as the directors may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make
the transfer. The transferor shall be deemed to remain a shareholder until the name of the transferee is entered in the register of members
of the Company in respect of the relevant shares.
The
directors may in their absolute discretion decline to register any transfer of share which is not fully paid up or on which the Company
has a lien. The directors may also, but are not required to, decline to register any transfer of any share unless:
|
(a) |
the instrument of transfer
is lodged with the Company, accompanied by the certificate (if any) for the Shares to which it relates and such other evidence as
the Board may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer; |
|
(b) |
the instrument of transfer
is in respect of only one class of shares; |
|
(c) |
the instrument of transfer
is properly stamped, if required; |
|
(d) |
in the case of a transfer
to joint holders, the number of joint holders to whom the Share is to be transferred does not exceed four; |
|
(e) |
the shares transferred
are Fully Paid Up and free of any lien in favor of the Company; and |
|
(f) |
any applicable fee of such
maximum sum as the Stock Exchanges may determine to be payable, or such lesser sum as the Board may from time to time require, related
to the transfer is paid to the Company. |
The
registration of transfers may, on 14 days’ notice being given by advertisement in such one or more newspapers or by electronic
means, be suspended and the register of members closed at such times and for such periods as the directors may, in their absolute discretion,
from time to time determine, provided always that such registration of transfer shall not be suspended nor the register of members closed
for more than 30 days in any year. The instruments of transfer that are registered shall be retained by the company.
Our
articles of association provides that upon any sale, transfer, assignment or disposition of Class B Ordinary Shares by a holder thereof
to any person or entity which is not an affiliate of such holder, such Class B Ordinary Shares validly transferred to the new holder
shall be automatically and immediately converted into such number of Class A Ordinary Shares calculated based on the 1 to 1 conversion
rate except where the sale, transfer, assignment or disposition is in relation to 50% of the then issued and outstanding Class B Ordinary
Shares, such transferred Class B Ordinary Shares will not be converted into Class A Ordinary Shares and will remain as Class B Ordinary
Shares.
Inspection
of Books and Records
Holders
of our Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares will have no general right under the Cayman Companies Act to inspect or obtain
copies of our register of members or our corporate records.
General
Meetings
As
a Cayman Islands exempted company, we are not obligated by the Cayman Companies Act to call shareholders’ annual general meetings;
accordingly, we may, but shall not be obliged to, in each year hold a general meeting as an annual general meeting.
The
directors may convene general meetings whenever they think fit. General meetings shall also be convened on the written requisition of
one or more of the shareholders entitled to attend and vote at our general meetings who (together) hold not less than 10 percent of the
rights to vote at such general meeting as at the date of the requisition. Any such requisition shall express the purpose of the meeting
proposed to be called, and shall be left at or posted to the Registered Office and may consist of several documents in like form each
signed by one or more requisitioners.
If
the directors do not convene such meeting within 21 clear days from the date of receipt of a requisition, the requisitioners or any of
them may call a general meeting within three months after the end of that period.
At
least five clear days’ notice (excluding the day that notice is deemed to be given and the day the meeting is to be held) shall
be given of an annual general meeting or any other general meeting. Subject to the Cayman Companies Act, a meeting may be convened on
shorter notice, subject to the Cayman Companies Act with the consent of the shareholders who, individually or collectively, hold at least
ninety per cent of the voting rights of all those who have a right to vote at that meeting. The accidental failure to give notice of
a meeting to or the non-receipt of a notice of a meeting by any shareholder shall not invalidate the proceedings at any meeting.
No
business shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum is present in person or by proxy. For so long as the Shares are listed
on Nasdaq, one or more shareholders holding shares that represent not less than one-third of the outstanding shares carrying the right
to vote at such general meeting.
If
a quorum is not present within fifteen minutes of the time appointed for the meeting, or if at any time during the meeting it becomes
inquorate, then:
|
(a) |
If the meeting was requisitioned
by shareholders, it shall be cancelled. |
|
(b) |
In any other case, the
meeting shall stand adjourned to the same time and place seven days hence, or to such other time or place as is determined by the
directors. If a quorum is not present within fifteen minutes of the time appointed for the adjourned meeting, then the shareholders
present in person or by proxy shall constitute a quorum. |
The
chairman of a general meeting shall be the chairman of the Board or such other director as the directors have nominated to chair Board
meetings in the absence of the chairman of the Board. Absent any such person being present within fifteen minutes of the time appointed
for the meeting, the directors present shall elect one of their number to chair the meeting. If no director is present within fifteen
minutes of the time appointed for the meeting, or if no director is willing to act as chairman, the shareholders present in person or
by proxy and entitled to vote shall choose one of their number to chair the meeting.
The
chairman may at any time adjourn a meeting with the consent of the shareholders constituting a quorum. The chairman must adjourn the
meeting if so directed by the meeting. No business, however, can be transacted at an adjourned meeting other than business which might
properly have been transacted at the original meeting. Should a meeting be adjourned for more than seven clear days, whether because
of a lack of quorum or otherwise, shareholders shall be given at least seven clear days’ notice of the date, time and place of
the adjourned meeting and the general nature of the business to be transacted. Otherwise it shall not be necessary to give any notice
of the adjournment.
A
resolution put to the vote of the meeting shall be decided on a show of hands unless before, or on, the declaration of the result of
the show of hands, a poll is duly demanded. Subject to the Cayman Companies Act, a poll may be demanded:
|
(a) |
by the chairman of the
meeting; |
|
(b) |
by at least two shareholders
having the right to vote on the resolutions; |
|
(c) |
by any shareholder or shareholders
present, who individually or collectively, hold at least ten per cent of the voting rights of all those who have a right to vote
on the resolution. |
A
poll shall be taken in such manner as the chairman directs. He may appoint scrutineers (who need not be shareholders) and fix a place
and time for declaring the result of the poll. If, through the aid of technology, the meeting is held in more than place, the chairman
may appoint scrutineers in more than place; but if he considers that the poll cannot be effectively monitored at that meeting, the chairman
shall adjourn the holding of the poll to a date, place and time when that can occur. In the case of an equality of votes, whether on
a show of hands or on a poll, the Chairman of the meeting at which the show of hands takes place or at which the poll is demanded shall
not be entitled to a second or casting vote.
Directors
There
shall be a Board consisting of not less than one person provided however that the Company may by Ordinary Resolution from time to time
increase or reduce the limits in the number of Directors but unless such number is fixed as aforesaid the maximum number of Directors
shall be unlimited.
A
director may be appointed by ordinary resolution or by the directors. Any appointment may be to fill a vacancy or as an additional director.
The
remuneration of the directors may be determined by the directors or by Ordinary Resolution.
A
director is not required to hold any shares in our Company by way of qualification unless a shareholding qualification for directors
is fixed by Ordinary Resolution. A director who is not a shareholder of our Company is nevertheless entitled to attend and speak at general
meetings.
A
Director shall hold office until such time as he is removed from office in accordance with the provision of the Articles.
A
director may be removed by ordinary resolution. A vacancy on the board of directors created by the removal of a director under the previous
sentence may be filled by ordinary resolution or by the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the remaining directors present and
voting at a meeting of the board of directors.
The
office of a director will be vacated if the director:
|
(a) |
is prohibited by the law
of the Cayman Islands from acting as a director; or |
|
(b) |
is made bankrupt or makes
an arrangement or composition with his creditors generally; or |
|
(c) |
resigns his office by notice
to the Company; or |
|
(d) |
only held office as a director
for a fixed term and such term expires; or |
|
(e) |
in the opinion of a registered
medical practitioner by whom he is being treated he becomes physically or mentally incapable of acting as a director; or |
|
(f) |
is given notice by the
majority of the other directors (not being less than two in number) to vacate office (without prejudice to any claim for damages
for breach of any agreement relating to the provision of the services of such director); or |
|
(g) |
is made subject to any
law relating to mental health or incompetence, whether by court order or otherwise; or |
|
(h) |
is absent from meetings
of directors for a continuous period of six months and without the consent of the other directors. |
Powers
and Duties of Directors
Subject
to the provisions of the Cayman Companies Act and our memorandum and articles of association, our business shall be managed by the directors,
who may exercise all our powers. No prior act of the directors shall be invalidated by any subsequent alteration of our memorandum and
articles of association. However, to the extent allowed by the Cayman Companies Act, shareholders may, by special resolution, validate
any prior or future act of the Directors which would otherwise be in breach of their duties.
The
directors may delegate any of their powers to committees consisting of such member or members of their body as they think fit. Any committee
so formed shall in the exercise of the powers so delegated conform to any regulations that may be imposed on it by the directors. Our
board of directors have established an audit committee, a compensation committee, and a nomination and corporate governance committee.
The
board of directors may establish any committees, local boards, or agencies for managing any of our affairs and delegate to it any of
the powers, authorities, and discretions for the time being vested in the directors (with power to sub-delegate) and may appoint any
natural persons to be members of a committee, local board, or agency or to be managers or agents, and may fix their remuneration.
The
directors may from time to time and at any time by power of attorney or otherwise appoint any company, firm, or person or body of persons,
to be our attorney or attorneys or authorized signatory for such purposes and with such powers, authorities, and discretion (not exceeding
those vested in or exercisable by the directors under our articles of association) and for such period and subject to such conditions
as they may think fit. Any such power of attorney or other appointment may contain such provisions for the protection and convenience
of persons dealing with any such attorney or authorized signatory as the directors may think fit, and may also authorize any such attorney
or authorized signatory to delegate all or any of the powers, authorities, and discretion vested in him.
The
directors may from time to time at their discretion exercise all our powers to raise or borrow money and to mortgage or charge our undertaking,
property and uncalled capital or any part thereof, to issue debentures, debenture stock, and other securities whenever money is borrowed
or as security for any of our or any third party’s debts, liabilities, or obligations.
A
director who is in any way, whether directly or indirectly, interested in a contract or transaction or proposed contract or transaction
with our Company shall declare the nature of his interest at a meeting of the directors. A director shall not, as a director, vote in
respect of any contract, transaction, arrangement or proposal in which he has an interest which (together with any interest of any person
connected with him) is a material interest (otherwise than by virtue of his interests, direct or indirect, in shares or debentures or
other securities of, or otherwise in or through, us) and if he shall do so his vote shall not be counted, nor in relation thereto shall
he be counted in the quorum present at the meeting, but (in the absence of some other material interest than is mentioned below) none
of these prohibitions shall apply to:
|
(a) |
the giving of any security,
guarantee or indemnity in respect of: |
|
(i) |
money lent or obligations
incurred by him or by any other person for our benefit or any of our subsidiaries; or |
|
(ii) |
a debt or obligation of
ours or any of our subsidiaries for which the director himself has assumed responsibility in whole or in part and whether alone or
jointly with others under a guarantee or indemnity or by the giving of security; |
|
(b) |
where we or any of our
subsidiaries is offering securities in which offer the director is or may be entitled to participate as a holder of securities or
in the underwriting or sub-underwriting of which the director is to or may participate; |
|
(c) |
any contract, transaction,
arrangement or proposal affecting any other body corporate in which he is interested, directly or indirectly, and whether as an officer,
shareholder, creditor or otherwise howsoever, provided that he (together with persons connected with him) does not to his knowledge
hold an interest representing one percent or more of any class of the equity share capital of such body corporate (or of any third
body corporate through which his interest is derived) or of the voting rights available to shareholders of the relevant body corporate; |
|
(d) |
any act or thing done or
to be done in respect of any arrangement for the benefit of the employees of us or any of our subsidiaries under which he is not
accorded as a director any privilege or advantage not generally accorded to the employees to whom such arrangement relates; or |
|
(e) |
any matter connected with
the purchase or maintenance for any director of insurance against any liability or (to the extent permitted by the Cayman Companies
Act) indemnities in favor of directors, the funding of expenditure by one or more directors in defending proceedings against him
or them or the doing of anything to enable such director or directors to avoid incurring such expenditure. |
A
director may, as a director, vote (and be counted in the quorum) in respect of any contract, transaction, arrangement, or proposal in
which he has an interest which is not a material interest or as described above.
Capitalization
of Profits
Subject
to the Cayman Companies Act, the directors may resolve to capitalize:
|
(a) |
any part of the Company’s
profits not required for paying any preferential dividend (whether or not those profits are available for distribution); or |
|
(b) |
any sum standing to the
credit of the Company’s share premium account or capital redemption reserve, if any. |
The
amount resolved to be capitalized must be appropriated to the shareholders who would have been entitled to it had it been distributed
by way of dividend and in the same proportions. The benefit to each shareholder so entitled must be given in either or both of the following
ways:
|
(a) |
by paying up the amounts
unpaid on that shareholder’s Shares; |
|
(b) |
by issuing fully paid up
shares, debentures or other securities of the Company to that shareholder or as that shareholder directs. The directors may resolve
that any shares issued to the shareholder in respect of partly paid up shares (Original Shares) rank for dividend only to
the extent that the Original Shares rank for dividend while those Original Shares remain partly paid up. |
The
amount capitalized must be applied to the benefit of shareholders in the proportions to which the shareholders would have been entitled
to dividends if the amount capitalized had been distributed as a dividend.
Subject
to the Cayman Companies Act, if a fraction of a share, a debenture or other security is allocated to a shareholder, the directors may
issue a fractional certificate to that shareholder or pay him the cash equivalent of the fraction.
Liquidation
Rights
If
we are wound up, the shareholders may, subject to any other sanction required by the Cayman Companies Act, pass a special resolution
allowing the liquidator to do either or both of the following:
|
(a) |
divide amongst the shareholders
in specie the whole or any part of our assets and, for that purpose, value any assets and determine how the division shall be carried
out as between the shareholders or different classes of shareholders; and/or |
|
(b) |
vest the whole or any part
of the assets in trustees for the benefit of the shareholders and those liable to contribute to the winding up. |
No
shareholder will be compelled to accept any asset upon which there is a liability.
Register
of Members
Under
the Cayman Companies Act, we must keep a register of members and there should be entered therein:
|
● |
the names and addresses
of our shareholders, and, a statement of the shares held by each member, which: |
|
i. |
distinguishes each share
by its number (so long as the share has a number); |
|
|
|
|
ii. |
confirms the amount paid,
or agreed to be considered as paid, on the shares of each member; |
|
|
|
|
iii. |
confirms the number and
category of shares held by each member; and |
|
|
|
|
iv. |
confirms whether each relevant
category of shares held by a member carries voting rights under the articles of association of the company, and if so, whether such
voting rights are conditional; |
|
● |
the date on which the name
of any person was entered on the register as a shareholder; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
the date on which any person
ceased to be a shareholder. |
Under
the Cayman Companies Act, the register of members of our company is prima facie evidence of the matters set out therein (that is, the
register of members will raise a presumption of fact on the matters referred to above unless rebutted) and a shareholder registered in
the register of members is deemed as a matter of the Cayman Companies Act to have legal title to the shares as set against its name in
the register of members. Upon the completion of this offering, the register of members will be immediately updated to record and give
effect to the issuance of shares by us to the custodian or its nominee. Once our register of members has been updated, the shareholders
recorded in the register of members will be deemed to have legal title to the shares set against their name.
If
the name of any person is incorrectly entered in or omitted from our register of members, or if there is any default or unnecessary delay
in entering on the register the fact of any person having ceased to be a shareholder of our company, the person or shareholder aggrieved
(or any shareholder of our company or our company itself) may apply to the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands for an order that the register
be rectified, and the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands may either refuse such application or it may, if satisfied of the justice of
the case, make an order for the rectification of the register.
Warrants
The following summary of certain terms and provisions
of the Pre-funded Warrants, Series A Warrants, and Series B Warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”) offered hereby is not
complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the provisions of the form of each of the Warrants and warrant agent agreement,
which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part of. Prospective investors should carefully
review the terms and provisions set forth in the applicable form of Warrants and the warrant agent agreement.
Exercisability and Duration.
The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable on issuance at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share of Class A Ordinary Shares and will not
expire until exercised in full. The 5-year term Series A Warrants are exercisable upon issuance and have an initial exercise price of
$[ ] per Class A Ordinary Share. On the sixteenth (16th) Trading Day following the Closing of this offering
(the “Series B Exercise Date”), the exercise price of the Series A Warrant will be adjusted to $[ ], i.e.,
one fifth of the per Unit offering price, and the maximum number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrant will be adjusted
to 20,833,333 shares, i.e., five times of the initial number of shares issuable. The 5-year Series B Warrants will be exercisable at
any time or times on or after the Series B Exercise Date at an exercise price of $0.0001 per Class A Ordinary Share. The maximum number
of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series B Warrants will be 16,666,667 shares, obtained by subtracting (I) the sum of (x) the aggregate
number of shares sold on the Closing Date and (y) the number of Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise in full of any Pre-funded
Warrants, from (II) the quotient determined by dividing (x) the sum of (i) the aggregate purchase price paid and (ii) the aggregate of
all exercise prices paid or payable upon exercise in full of the Pre-Funded Warrants, by (y) $[ ], which equals to 20%
of the Nasdaq Minimum Price under the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) immediately prior to effectiveness of this Registration Statement.
As described above, based on an estimate offering price of $[ ] per Unit, the initial and adjusted exercise prices of
the Series A Warrants are $[ ] and $[ ], respectively, and the maximum aggregate maximum number of
Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrant is 20,833,333 shares; the exercise prices of the Series B Warrants
is $0.0001, and the maximum aggregate maximum number of Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Series B Warrant is 16,666,667 shares.
For the avoidance of doubts, the adjusted exercise price of Series A Warrants, the number of shares underlying the Series A Warrants
and the Series B Warrants bears no relevance to any market price of the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares after the effectiveness
of this Registration Statement.
Stock Dividends and Splits. If
the Company, at any time while any of the Warrants is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions
on shares of its Class A Ordinary Shares or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in Class A Ordinary Shares, (ii)
subdivides outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split)
outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of Class A Ordinary Shares or
any other shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon exercise
of the Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted. However, if the adjustment above would otherwise result in an increase in the
exercise price of the Warrant, no adjustment shall be made.
Transferability. Subject to applicable
laws, the Warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned at the option of the holder upon surrender of the Warrants
to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.
Exchange Listing. We do not plan
on applying to list the Warrants on The Nasdaq Capital Market, any other national securities exchange or any other nationally recognized
trading system.
Fundamental Transactions. In the
event of a fundamental transaction (“Fundamental Transaction”), as described in the Warrants and generally including any
merger, consolidation, sale of substantially all assets, or other change of control transaction in which the Company’s shareholders
immediately prior to such transaction own less than 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity, the holders of the Warrants will
be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that a holder of the number
of Class A Ordinary Shares for which this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to the Fundamental Transaction would have been entitled
to receive pursuant to such transaction, or at the option of the holder, the Company or successor entity shall purchase such portion
of the Warrant that remains outstanding after the Fundamental Transaction for cash equal to the Black-Scholes value thereof. If the Company
is not the surviving entity in the Fundamental Transaction, any successor entity shall assume the obligations under this Warrant.
Rights as a Shareholder. Except by virtue
of such holder’s ownership of our Class A Ordinary Shares, the holder of a Warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a
holder of our Class A Ordinary Shares, including any voting rights, until the holder exercises the Warrants.
The
Cayman Companies Act is derived, to a large extent, from the older Companies Acts of England and Wales but does not follow recent United
Kingdom statutory enactments, and accordingly there are significant differences between the Cayman Companies Act and the current Companies
Act of the UK. In addition, the Cayman Companies Act differs from laws applicable to United States corporations and their shareholders.
Set forth below is a summary of certain significant differences between the provisions of the Cayman Companies Act applicable to us and
the comparable laws applicable to companies incorporated in the State of Delaware in the United States.

Duties of Directors |
|
Under Delaware law, the
business and affairs of a corporation are managed by or under the direction of its board of directors. In exercising their powers,
directors are charged with a fiduciary duty of care to protect the interests of the corporation and a fiduciary duty of loyalty to
act in the best interests of its shareholders. The duty of care requires that directors act in an informed and deliberative manner
and inform themselves, prior to making a business decision, of all material information reasonably available to them. The duty of
care also requires that directors exercise care in overseeing and investigating the conduct of the corporation’s employees.
The duty of loyalty may be summarized as the duty to act in good faith, not out of self-interest, and in a manner which the director
reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the shareholders. |
|
As a matter of Cayman Islands
law, a director owes three types of duties to the company: (i) statutory duties, (ii) fiduciary duties, and (iii) common law duties.
The Cayman Companies Act imposes a number of statutory duties on a director. Under Cayman Islands law, the fiduciary duties owed
by a director include (a) a duty to act in good faith in what the director considers are in the best interests of the company, (b)
a duty to exercise their powers in the company’s interests and only for the purposes for which they were given, (c) a duty
to avoid improperly fettering the exercise of the director’s future discretion, (d) a duty to avoid any conflict of interest
(whether actual or potential) between the director’s duty to the company and the director’s personal interests or a duty
owed to a third party, and (e) a duty not to misuse the company’s property (including any confidential information and trade
secrets). The common law duties owed by a director are those to exercise appropriate skill and care. The relevant threshold is that
of a reasonable diligent person having both the general knowledge, skill, and experience that may reasonably be expected of a person
carrying out the same functions as are carried out by that director in relation to the company, and the general knowledge, skill,
and experience that that director has. In fulfilling their duty to us, our directors must ensure compliance with our articles of
association, as amended and restated from time to time, and our shareholder resolutions. We have the right to seek damages where
certain duties owed by any of our directors are breached. |
|
|
|
|
|
Limitations on Personal Liability of Directors |
|
Subject to the limitations
described below, a certificate of incorporation may provide for the elimination or limitation of the personal liability of a director
to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director. Such provision cannot limit
liability for breach of loyalty, bad faith, intentional misconduct, unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful share purchase or redemption.
In addition, the certificate of incorporation cannot limit liability for any act or omission occurring prior to the date when such
provision becomes effective. |
|
Cayman Islands law does
not limit the extent to which a company’s articles of association may provide for indemnification of directors and officers,
except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to provide
indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. |

Indemnification of Directors, Officers, Agents,
and Others |
|
A corporation has the power
to indemnify any director, officer, employee, or agent of corporation who was, is, or is threatened to be made a party who acted
in good faith and in a manner he believed to be in the best interests of the corporation, and if with respect to a criminal proceeding,
had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct would be unlawful, against amounts actually and reasonably incurred. |
|
Cayman
Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum and articles of association may provide for indemnification
of directors and officers, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to
public policy, such as to provide indemnification against the consequences of committing a crime, or against the indemnified
person’s own fraud or dishonesty.
Our
articles of association provide that we will indemnify every director (including alternate director), secretary and other officer
of the Company (including an investment adviser or an administrator or liquidator) and their personal representatives against:
(a)
all actions, proceedings, costs, charges, expenses, losses, damages or liabilities incurred or sustained by the existing or former
director (including alternate director), secretary or officer in or about the conduct of the Company’s business or affairs
or in the execution or discharge of the existing or former director’s (including alternate director’s), secretary’s
or officer’s duties, powers, authorities or discretions; and
(b)
without limitation to the above, all costs, expenses, losses or liabilities incurred by the existing or former director (including
alternate director), secretary or officer in defending (whether successfully or otherwise) any civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative proceedings (whether threatened, pending or completed) concerning the Company or its affairs in any court or tribunal,
whether in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere.
No
such existing or former director (including alternate director), secretary or officer, however, shall be indemnified in respect of
any matter arising out of his own dishonesty. |

Interested Directors |
|
Under Delaware law, a transaction
in which a director who has an interest in such transaction would not be voidable if (i) the material facts as to such interested
director’s relationship or interests are disclosed or are known to the board of directors and the board in good faith authorizes
the transaction by the affirmative vote of a majority of the disinterested directors, even though the disinterested directors are
less than a quorum, (ii) such material facts are disclosed or are known to the shareholders entitled to vote on such transaction
and the transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the shareholders, or (iii) the transaction is fair as to the
corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified. Under Delaware law, a director could be held liable for any transaction
in which such director derived an improper personal benefit. |
|
Interested director transactions
are governed by the terms of a company’s memorandum and articles of association. |
|
|
|
|
|
Voting Requirements |
|
The
certificate of incorporation may include a provision requiring supermajority approval by the directors or shareholders for any
corporate action.
In
addition, under Delaware law, certain business combinations involving interested shareholders require approval by a supermajority
of the non-interested shareholders. |
|
For
the protection of shareholders, certain matters must be approved by special resolution of the shareholders as a matter of Cayman
Islands law, including alteration of the memorandum or articles of association, appointment of inspectors to examine company
affairs, reduction of share capital (subject, in relevant circumstances, to court approval), change of name, authorization of
a plan of merger or transfer by way of continuation to another jurisdiction or consolidation or voluntary winding up of the company.
The
Cayman Companies Act requires that a special resolution be passed by a majority of at least two-thirds or such higher percentage
as set forth in the memorandum and articles of association, of shareholders being entitled to vote and do vote in person or by proxy
at a general meeting, or if so authorized by the articles of association, by unanimous written consent of shareholders entitled to
vote at a general meeting. |
|
|
|
|
|
Voting for Directors |
|
Under Delaware law, unless
otherwise specified in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the corporation, directors shall be elected by a plurality of
the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. |
|
Director election is governed
by the terms of the memorandum and articles of association. |
|
|
|
|
|
Cumulative Voting |
|
No cumulative voting for
the election of directors unless so provided in the certificate of incorporation. |
|
There are no prohibitions
in relation to cumulative voting under the Cayman Companies Act but our articles of association do not provide for cumulative voting. |
|
|
|
|
|
Directors’ Powers Regarding Bylaws |
|
The certificate of incorporation
may grant the directors the power to adopt, amend or repeal bylaws. |
|
The memorandum and articles
of association may only be amended by a special resolution of the shareholders. |
|
|
|
|
|
Nomination and Removal of Directors and Filling
Vacancies on Board |
|
Shareholders may generally
nominate directors if they comply with advance notice provisions and other procedural requirements in company bylaws. Holders of
a majority of the shares may remove a director with or without cause, except in certain cases involving a classified board or if
the company uses cumulative voting. Unless otherwise provided for in the certificate of incorporation, directorship vacancies are
filled by a majority of the directors elected or then in office. |
|
Nomination and removal
of directors and filling of board vacancies are governed by the terms of the memorandum and articles of association. |

Mergers and Similar Arrangements |
|
Under
Delaware law, with certain exceptions, a merger, consolidation, exchange or sale of all or substantially all the assets of a
corporation must be approved by the board of directors and a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon. Under
Delaware law, a shareholder of a corporation participating in certain major corporate transactions may, under certain circumstances,
be entitled to appraisal rights pursuant to which such shareholder may receive cash in the amount of the fair value of the shares
held by such shareholder (as determined by a court) in lieu of the consideration such shareholder would otherwise receive in
the transaction.
Delaware
law also provides that a parent corporation, by resolution of its board of directors, may merge with any subsidiary, of which it
owns at least 90% of each class of capital stock without a vote by shareholders of such subsidiary. Upon any such merger, dissenting
shareholders of the subsidiary would have appraisal rights. |
|
The
Cayman Companies Act permits mergers and consolidations between Cayman Islands companies and between Cayman Islands companies
and non-Cayman Islands companies. For these purposes, (a) “merger” means the merging of two or more constituent companies
and the vesting of their undertaking, property and liabilities in one of such companies as the surviving company, and (b) a “consolidation”
means the combination of two or more constituent companies into a consolidated company and the vesting of the undertaking, property
and liabilities of such companies to the consolidated company. In order to effect such a merger or consolidation, the directors
of each constituent company must approve a written plan of merger or consolidation, which must then be authorized by (a) a special
resolution of the shareholders of each constituent company, and (b) such other authorization, if any, as may be specified in
such constituent company’s articles of association. The plan must be filed with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman
Islands together with a declaration as to the solvency of the consolidated or surviving company, a list of the assets and liabilities
of each constituent company and an undertaking that a copy of the certificate of merger or consolidation will be given to the
shareholders and creditors of each constituent company and that notification of the merger or consolidation will be published
in the Cayman Islands Gazette. Court approval is not required for a merger or consolidation which is effected in compliance with
these statutory procedures.
A
merger between a Cayman Islands parent company and its Cayman Islands subsidiary or subsidiaries does not require authorization by
a resolution of shareholders. For this purpose, a subsidiary is a company of which at least 90% of the issued shares entitled to
vote are owned by the parent company.
The
consent of each holder of a fixed or floating security interest of a constituent company is required unless this requirement is waived
by a court in the Cayman Islands.
Except
in certain limited circumstances, a dissenting shareholder of a Cayman Islands constituent company is entitled to payment of the
fair value of his or her shares upon dissenting from a merger or consolidation. The exercise of such dissenter rights will preclude
the exercise by the dissenting shareholder of any other rights to which he or she might otherwise be entitled by virtue of holding
shares, except for the right to seek relief on the grounds that the merger or consolidation is void or unlawful. |

In
addition, there are statutory provisions that facilitate the reconstruction and amalgamation of companies. Those provisions provide
that if a majority in number representing 75% in value of the creditors or class of creditors (as the case may be) present and
voting either in person or by proxy at the meeting, agree to any compromise or arrangement, the compromise or arrangement shall,
if sanctioned by the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands, be binding on all the creditors or the class of creditors, as the case
may be, and also on the company or, where a company is in the course of being wound up, on the liquidator and contributories
of the company. Alternatively, if 75% in value of the members or class of members (as the case may be) present and voting either
in person or by proxy at the meeting, agree to any compromise or arrangement, the compromise or arrangement shall, if sanctioned
by the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands, be binding on all the members or the class of members, as the case may be, and also
on the company or, where a company is in the course of being wound up, on the liquidator and contributories of the company. The
convening of the meetings and subsequently the arrangement must be sanctioned by the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands. While
a dissenting shareholder has the right to express to the court the view that the transaction ought not to be approved, the court
can be expected to approve the arrangement if it determines that: (a) the statutory provisions as to the required majority vote
have been met; (b) the shareholders have been fairly represented at the meeting in question and the statutory majority are acting
bona fide without coercion of the minority to promote interests adverse to those of the class; (c) the arrangement is such that
may be reasonably approved by an intelligent and honest man of that class acting in respect of his interest; and (d) the arrangement
is not one that would more properly be sanctioned under some other provision of the Cayman Companies Act.
The
Cayman Companies Act also contains a statutory power of compulsory acquisition which may facilitate the “squeeze out”
of dissentient minority shareholders upon a tender offer. When a tender offer is made and accepted by holders of 90% of the shares
affected within four months the offeror may, within a two-month period commencing on the expiration of such four month period, require
the holders of the remaining shares to transfer such shares on the terms of the offer. An objection can be made to the Grand Court
of the Cayman Islands but this is unlikely to succeed in the case of an offer which has been so approved unless there is evidence
of fraud, bad faith or collusion.
If
an arrangement and reconstruction is thus approved, or if a tender offer is made and accepted, a dissenting shareholder would have
no rights comparable to appraisal rights, which would otherwise ordinarily be available to dissenting shareholders of Delaware corporations,
providing rights to receive payment in cash for the judicially determined value of the shares. |

Shareholder Suits |
|
Class actions and derivative
actions generally are available to shareholders under Delaware law for, among other things, breach of fiduciary duty, corporate waste
and actions not taken in accordance with applicable law. In such actions, the court generally has discretion to permit the winning
party to recover attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with such action. |
|
In principle, we will normally
be the proper plaintiff and as a general rule a derivative action may not be brought by a minority shareholder. However, based on
English authorities, which would in all likelihood be of persuasive authority in the Cayman Islands, the Cayman Islands courts can
be expected to follow and apply the common law principles (namely the rule in Foss v. Harbottle and the exceptions thereto) so that
a non-controlling shareholder may be permitted to commence a class action against or derivative actions in the name of the company
to challenge: (a) an act which is illegal or ultra vires with respect to the company and is therefore incapable of ratification by
the shareholders; (b) an act which, although not ultra vires, requires authorization by a qualified (or special) majority (that is,
more than a simple majority) which has not been obtained; and (c) an act which constitutes a “fraud on the minority”
where the wrongdoers are themselves in control of the company. |
Inspection of Corporate Records |
|
Under Delaware
law, shareholders of a Delaware corporation have the right during normal business hours to inspect for any proper purpose, and to
obtain copies of list(s) of shareholders and other books and records of the corporation and its subsidiaries, if any, to the extent
the books and records of such subsidiaries are available to the corporation. |
|
Shareholders
of a Cayman Islands exempted company have no general right under Cayman Islands law to inspect or obtain copies of a list of shareholders
or other corporate records (other than the register of mortgages or charges) of the company. However, these rights may be provided
in the company’s memorandum and articles of association. |
|
|
|
|
|
Shareholder Proposals |
|
Unless provided in the
corporation’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, Delaware law does not include a provision restricting the manner in which
shareholders may bring business before a meeting. |
|
The Cayman Companies Act
provides shareholders with only limited rights to requisition a general meeting, and does not provide shareholders with any right
to put any proposal before a general meeting. However, these rights may be provided in a company’s articles of association.
Our articles of association allow our shareholders holding shares which carry in aggregate not less than ten percent of the rights
to vote at a general meeting, to requisition a general meeting of our shareholders, in which case our chairman or a majority of our
directors are obliged to call such meeting. If the directors do not within 21 clear days from the date of receipt of a requisition
duly proceed to convene a general meeting, the requisitioners, or any of them may call a general meeting within three months after
the end of that period. As a Cayman Islands exempted company, we are not obligated by law to call shareholders’ annual general
meetings. However, our corporate governance guidelines require us to call such meetings every year. |
|
|
|
|
|
Approval of Corporate Matters by Written Consent |
|
Delaware law permits shareholders
to take actions by written consent signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that
would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting of shareholders. |
|
The Cayman Companies Act
allows a special resolution to be passed in writing if signed by all the voting shareholders (if authorized by the memorandum and
articles of association). |

Calling of Special Shareholders Meetings |
|
Delaware law permits the
board of directors or any person who is authorized under a corporation’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws to call a special
meeting of shareholders. |
|
The Cayman Companies Act
does not have provisions governing the proceedings of shareholders meetings, which are usually provided in the memorandum and articles
of association. Please see above. |
|
|
|
|
|
Dissolution; Winding Up |
|
Under the Delaware General
Corporation Law, unless the board of directors approves the proposal to dissolve, dissolution must be approved by shareholders holding
100% of the total voting power of the corporation. Only if the dissolution is initiated by the board of directors may it be approved
by a simple majority of the corporation’s outstanding shares. Delaware law allows a Delaware corporation to include in its
certificate of incorporation a supermajority voting requirement in connection with dissolutions initiated by the board of directors. |
|
Under the Cayman Companies
Act, a company may be wound up voluntarily (a) by virtue of a special resolution, (b) because the period, if any, fixed for the duration
of the company by its articles of association has expired, (c) because the event, if any, has occurred, on the occurrence of which
its articles of association provide that the company shall be wound up, or (d) if the company in general meeting resolves by ordinary
resolution that it be wound up voluntarily because it is unable to pay its debts. Our articles of association contain no fixed period
for the duration of our Company and no provisions for the winding up of our Company on the occurrence of any particular event. Under
the Cayman Companies Act, a company may also be wound up compulsorily by order of the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands, including
if the company is unable to pay its debts as they fall due or the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands is of the opinion that it is
just and equitable that the company should be wound up. |

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

Economic
Substance in the Cayman Islands
The
Cayman Islands, together with several other non-European Union jurisdictions, have recently introduced legislation aimed at addressing
concerns raised by the Council of the European Union as to offshore structures engaged in certain activities which attract profits without
real economic activity. With effect from January 1, 2019, the International Tax Co-operation (Economic Substance) Act (as amended) (the
“Substance Act”) came into force in the Cayman Islands introducing certain economic substance requirements for in-scope Cayman
Islands entities which are engaged in certain “relevant activities,” which in the case of exempted companies incorporated
before January 1, 2019, applies in respect of financial years commencing July 1, 2019, onwards. However, it is anticipated that our Company
may remain out of scope of the legislation or else be subject to more limited substance requirements as a pure equity holding company.
History
of Share Issuances
The
following is a summary of our share issuances since incorporation.
On
August 5, 2022, we issued 7,730,000 Class A Shares to Lei Xu, Hongli Wu, Tao Zhao, and Wenpu Sun for $773 and 17,270,000 Class B Shares
to Zhen Fan for $1,727. On May 8, 2023, the register of members of the Company was updated to reflect that the 7,730,000 Class A Shares
issued and outstanding are Class A Ordinary Shares and the 17,270,000 Class B Shares issued and outstanding are Class B Ordinary Shares.
On
November 28, 2022, we issued another 4,480,000 Class A Shares to Hongli Wu for $2,000,000 (before deducting bank and handling charges).
The net proceeds we received from this share issuance was $1,994,258. On May 8, 2023, the register of members of the Company was updated
to reflect that the additional 4,480,000 Class A Shares issued to Hongli Wu are Class A Ordinary Shares.
On
January 30, 2024, the Company completed its IPO of 2,400,000 Class A Ordinary Shares at a price of $4.00 per share. The Class A Ordinary
Shares began trading on January 26, 2024 on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “HAO.” On March 8, 2024, the underwriter for the
IPO exercised its over-allotment option in full to purchase 360,000 Class A Ordinary Shares at a price of $4.00. The total gross proceeds
received from the IPO, including proceeds from the exercise of the over-allotment option, was $11,040,000.
SHARES
ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Our Class A Ordinary Shares are listed on
the Nasdaq Capital Market under ticker symbol “HAO.” Future sales of substantial amounts of our Class A Ordinary Shares in
the public market, or the possibility of these sales occurring, could cause the prevailing market price for our Class A Ordinary Shares
to fall or impair our ability to raise equity capital in the future. Upon completion of this offering, we will have outstanding Class
A Ordinary Shares held by public shareholders approximately 37.52% of our Class A Ordinary Shares in issue, assuming no exercise of the
Representative’s over-allotment option or the Warrants. All of the Class A Ordinary Shares sold in this offering will be freely
transferable by persons other than our “affiliates” without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act.
Lock-Up
Agreements
We,
on behalf of ourselves and any successor entity, have agreed that, without the prior written consent of the Representative, we will not,
during the Engagement Period, and for a period of 90 days from the closing of this offering, (i) 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, our Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares or any securities
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares; (ii) file or cause to be
filed any registration statement with the SEC relating to the offering of our Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares or any
securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares; (iii) complete
any offering of debt securities of the Company, other than entering into a line of credit with a traditional bank; or (iv) enter into
any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of capital
shares of our Company, whether any such transaction described in (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) above is to be settled by delivery of our
Class A Ordinary Shares or such other securities, in cash, or otherwise.
In
addition, each of our directors, executive officers, and shareholders holding 5% or more our Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary
Shares has agreed, for a period of 180 days from the closing of this offering, subject to certain exceptions, not to offer, pledge, sell,
contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right, or warrant
to purchase, lend, or otherwise to transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of our Class A Ordinary Shares, Class B Ordinary
Shares, or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares, without
the prior written consent of the Representative.
If
we and the Representative choose to enter into any subsequent financing with Representative as the underwriter or placement agent within
180 days from the closing of this offering and if it is mutually agreed that the lock-up arrangement can be waived (including the Lock-Up
Period, as defined below), then Representative may waive the lock-up clause as necessary as requested.
We
are not aware of any plans by any significant shareholders to dispose of significant numbers of our Class A Ordinary Shares. However,
one or more existing shareholders or owners of securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for our Class A Ordinary Shares
may dispose of significant numbers of our Class A Ordinary Shares in the future. We cannot predict what effect, if any, future sales
of our Class A Ordinary Shares, or the availability of Class A Ordinary Shares for future sale, will have on the trading price of our
Class A Ordinary Shares from time to time. Sales of substantial amounts of our Class A Ordinary Shares in the public market, or the perception
that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the trading price of our Class A Ordinary Shares.
Rule
144
All
of our Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding prior to the closing of this offering are “restricted securities,” as that term
is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act and may be sold publicly in the United States only if they are subject to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirement, such as those provided
by Rule 144 and Rule 701 promulgated under the Securities Act.
In
general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, beginning 90 days after the date of this prospectus, a person who is not deemed to have
been our affiliate at any time during the three months preceding a sale and who has beneficially owned restricted securities within the
meaning of Rule 144 for more than six months would be entitled to sell an unlimited number of those shares, subject only to the availability
of current public information about us. A non-affiliate who has beneficially owned restricted securities for at least one year from the
later of the date these shares were acquired from us or from our affiliate would be entitled to freely sell those shares.
A
person who is deemed to be an affiliate of ours and who has beneficially owned “restricted securities” for at least six months
would be entitled to sell, within any three-month period, a number of shares that is not more than the greater of:
|
● |
1% of the number of
Class A Ordinary Shares then outstanding, in the form of Class A Ordinary Shares or otherwise, which will equal approximately 1,913,667
shares immediately after this offering; or |
|
|
|
|
● |
the average weekly trading
volume of the Class A Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice
on Form 144 with respect to such sale. |
Sales
under Rule 144 by our affiliates or persons selling shares on behalf of our affiliates are also subject to certain manner of sale provisions
and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us.
Rule
701
In
general, under Rule 701 of the Securities Act as currently in effect, each of our employees, consultants, or advisors who purchases our
Class A Ordinary Shares from us in connection with a compensatory stock plan or other written agreement executed prior to the completion
of this offering is eligible to resell those Class A Ordinary Shares in reliance on Rule 144, but without compliance with some of the
restrictions, including the holding period, contained in Rule 144. However, the Rule 701 shares would remain subject to lock-up arrangements
and would only become eligible for sale when the lock-up period expires.

of the Securities Act.
MATERIAL
INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS
PRC
Enterprise Taxation
The
following brief description of PRC enterprise income taxation is designed to highlight the enterprise-level taxation on our earnings,
which will affect the amount of dividends, if any, we are ultimately able to pay to our shareholders. See “Dividend Policy.”
Income
Tax in PRC
Under
the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, an enterprise established outside the PRC with a “de facto management body” within the
PRC is considered a PRC resident enterprise for PRC enterprise income tax purposes and is generally subject to a uniform 25% enterprise
income tax rate on its worldwide income as well as tax reporting obligations. Under the Implementation Rules, a “de facto management
body” is defined as a body that has material and overall management and control over the manufacturing and business operations,
personnel and human resources, finances and properties of an enterprise.
In
addition, SAT Circular 82 issued in April 2009 specifies that certain offshore incorporated enterprises controlled by PRC enterprises
or PRC enterprise groups will be classified as PRC resident enterprises if all of the following conditions are met: (a) senior management
personnel and core management departments in charge of the daily operations of the enterprises have their presence mainly in the PRC;
(b) their financial and human resources decisions are subject to determination or approval by persons or bodies in the PRC; (c) major
assets, accounting books and company seals of the enterprises, and minutes and files of their board’s and shareholders’ meetings
are located or kept in the PRC; and (d) half or more of the enterprises’ directors or senior management personnel with voting rights
habitually reside in the PRC. Further to SAT Circular 82, the SAT issued Announcement of the State Administration of Taxation on Printing
and Distributing the Administrative Measures for Income Tax on Chinese-controlled Resident Enterprises Incorporated Overseas (Trial Implementation)
(the “SAT Bulletin 45”) on July 27, 2011, which took effect on September 1, 2011, to provide more guidance on the implementation
of SAT Circular 82. SAT Bulletin 45 provides for procedures and administration details of determination on PRC resident enterprise status
and administration on post-determination matters. If the PRC tax authorities determine that Haoxi Cayman is a PRC resident enterprise
for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, a number of PRC tax consequences could follow. For example, Haoxi Cayman may be subject to enterprise
income tax at a rate of 25% with respect to its worldwide taxable income. Also, a 10% withholding tax would be imposed on dividends we
pay to our non-PRC enterprise shareholders and with respect to gains derived by our non-PRC enterprise shareholders from transferring
our shares or ordinary shares and potentially a 20% of withholding tax would be imposed on dividends we pay to our non-PRC individual
shareholders and with respect to gains derived by our non-PRC individual shareholders from transferring our shares or ordinary shares.
It
is unclear whether, if we are considered a PRC resident enterprise, holders of our ordinary shares would be able to claim the benefit
of income tax treaties or agreements entered into between China and other countries or areas. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related
to Doing Business in China—Dividends payable to our foreign investors and gains on the sale of our Class A Ordinary Shares by our
foreign investors may be subject to PRC tax.”
The
SAT and the Ministry of Finance issued the Notice of Ministry of Finance and State Administration of Taxation on Several Issues relating
to Treatment of Corporate Income Tax Pertaining to Restructured Business Operations of Enterprises (the “SAT Circular 59”)
in April 2009, which took effect on January 1, 2008. On October 17, 2017, the SAT issued the SAT Circular 37. By promulgating and implementing
the SAT Circular 59 and the SAT Circular 37, the PRC tax authorities have enhanced their scrutiny over the direct or indirect transfer
of equity interests in a PRC resident enterprise by a non-PRC resident enterprise.
Pursuant
to the Tax Arrangement, where a Hong Kong resident enterprise which is considered a non-PRC tax resident enterprise directly holds at
least 25% of a PRC enterprise, the withholding tax rate for the payment of dividends by such PRC enterprise to such Hong Kong resident
enterprise is reduced to 5% from a standard rate of 10%, subject to approval of the PRC local tax authority. Pursuant to Circular 81,
a resident enterprise of the counter-party to such Tax Arrangement should meet all of the following conditions, among others, in order
to enjoy the reduced withholding tax under the Tax Arrangement: (i) it must take the form of a company; (ii) it must directly own the
required percentage of equity interests and voting rights in such PRC resident enterprise; and (iii) it should directly own such percentage
of capital in the PRC resident enterprise anytime in the 12 consecutive months prior to receiving the dividends. Furthermore, the Administrative
Measures which took effect in November 2015, requires that the non-resident taxpayer shall determine whether it may enjoy the treatments
under relevant tax treaties and file the tax return or withholding declaration subject to further monitoring and oversight by the tax
authorities. Accordingly, Haoxi Cayman may be able to enjoy the 5% withholding tax rate for the dividends it receives from WFOE, if it
satisfies the conditions prescribed under Circular 81 and other relevant tax rules and regulations. However, according to Circular 81,
if the relevant tax authorities consider the transactions or arrangements we have are for the primary purpose of enjoying favorable tax
treatment, the relevant tax authorities may adjust the favorable withholding tax in the future.
Cayman
Islands Taxation
The
Cayman Islands currently levies no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains, or appreciation and there
is no taxation in the nature of inheritance tax or estate duty. There are no other taxes likely to be material to us levied by the Government
of the Cayman Islands except for stamp duties which may be applicable on instruments executed in, or, after execution, brought within
the jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands. No stamp duty is payable in the Cayman Islands on the issue of shares by, or any transfers of
shares of, Cayman Islands companies (except those which hold interests in land in the Cayman Islands). There are no exchange control
regulations or currency restrictions in the Cayman Islands.
Payments
of dividends and capital in respect of our Class A Ordinary Shares will not be subject to taxation in the Cayman Islands and no withholding
will be required on the payment of a dividend or capital to any holder of our Class A Ordinary Shares, as the case may be, nor will gains
derived from the disposal of our Class A Ordinary Shares be subject to Cayman Islands income or corporation tax.

The discussion set forth below is addressed only
to U.S. Holders (as defined below) that purchase Class A Ordinary Shares in this offering. Prospective purchasers are urged to consult
their own tax advisors about the application of the U.S. federal income tax rules to their particular circumstances as well as the state,
local, foreign and other tax consequences to them of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our Class A Ordinary Shares.
Material
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences Applicable to U.S. Holders of Our Class A Ordinary Shares
The following brief summary sets forth the material
U.S. federal income tax consequences related to the ownership and disposition of our Class A Ordinary Shares. It is directed to U.S.
Holders (as defined below) of our Class A Ordinary Shares and is based upon laws and relevant interpretations thereof in effect as of
the date of this prospectus, all of which are subject to change. This description does not deal with all possible tax consequences relating
to ownership and disposition of our Class A Ordinary Shares or U.S. tax laws, other than the U.S. federal income tax laws, such as the
tax consequences under non-U.S. tax laws, state, local and other tax laws.
The
following brief description applies only to U.S. Holders that hold Class A Ordinary Shares as capital assets and that have the U.S. dollar
as their functional currency. This brief description is based on the federal income tax laws of the United States in effect as of the
date of this prospectus and on U.S. Treasury regulations in effect or, in some cases, proposed, as of the date of this prospectus, as
well as judicial and administrative interpretations thereof available on or before such date. All of the foregoing authorities are subject
to change, which change could apply retroactively and could affect the tax consequences described below.
The
brief description below of the U.S. federal income tax consequences to “U.S. Holders” will apply to you if you are a beneficial
owner of Class A Ordinary Shares and you are, for U.S. federal income tax purposes,
|
● |
an individual who is a
citizen or resident of the United States; |
|
|
|
|
● |
a corporation (or other
entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof
or the District of Columbia; |
|
|
|
|
● |
an estate whose income
is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or |
|
|
|
|
● |
a trust that (1) is subject
to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and the control of one or more U.S. persons for all substantial decisions
or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person. |
If
a partnership (or other entities treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes) is a beneficial owner of our
Class A Ordinary Shares, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities
of the partnership. Partnerships and partners of a partnership holding our Class A Ordinary Shares are urged to consult their tax advisors
regarding an investment in our Class A Ordinary Shares.
Taxation
of Dividends and Other Distributions on Our Class A Ordinary Shares
Subject
to the PFIC rules discussed below, the gross amount of distributions made by us to you with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares (including
the amount of any taxes withheld therefrom) will generally be includable in your gross income as dividend income on the date of receipt
by you, but only to the extent that the distribution is paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under
U.S. federal income tax principles). With respect to corporate U.S. Holders, the dividends will not be eligible for the dividends-received
deduction allowed to corporations in respect of dividends received from other U.S. corporations.
With
respect to non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individual U.S. Holders, dividends will be taxed at the lower capital gains rate applicable
to qualified dividend income, provided that (1) the Class A Ordinary Shares are readily tradable on an established securities market
in the United States, or we are eligible for the benefits of an approved qualifying income tax treaty with the United States that includes
an exchange of information program, (2) we are not a PFIC for either our taxable year in which the dividend is paid or the preceding
taxable year, and (3) certain holding period requirements are met. Because there is no income tax treaty between the United States and
the Cayman Islands, clause (1) above can be satisfied only if the Class A Ordinary Shares are readily tradable on an established securities
market in the United States. Under U.S. Internal Revenue Service authority, Class A Ordinary Shares are considered for purpose of clause
(1) above to be readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States if they are listed on certain exchanges, which
presently include the NYSE and the Nasdaq Stock Market. You are urged to consult your tax advisors regarding the availability of the
lower rate for dividends paid with respect to our Class A Ordinary Shares, including the effects of any change in law after the date
of this prospectus.
Dividends
will constitute foreign source income for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. If the dividends are taxed as qualified dividend income
(as discussed above), the amount of the dividend taken into account for purposes of calculating the foreign tax credit limitation will
be limited to the gross amount of the dividend, multiplied by the reduced rate divided by the highest rate of tax normally applicable
to dividends. The limitation on foreign taxes eligible for credit is calculated separately with respect to specific classes of income.
For this purpose, dividends distributed by us with respect to our Class A Ordinary Shares will constitute “passive category income”
but could, in the case of certain U.S. Holders, constitute “general category income.”
To
the extent that the amount of the distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal
income tax principles), it will be treated first as a tax-free return of your tax basis in your Class A Ordinary Shares, and to the extent
the amount of the distribution exceeds your tax basis, the excess will be taxed as capital gain. We do not intend to calculate our earnings
and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles. Therefore, a U.S. Holder should expect that a distribution will be treated as a
dividend even if that distribution would otherwise be treated as a non-taxable return of capital or as capital gain under the rules described
above.
Taxation
of Dispositions of Class A Ordinary Shares
Subject
to the PFIC rules discussed below, you will recognize taxable gain or loss on any sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of a share
equal to the difference between the amount realized (in U.S. dollars) for the share and your tax basis (in U.S. dollars) in the Class
A Ordinary Shares. The gain or loss will be capital gain or loss. If you are a non-corporate U.S. Holder, including an individual U.S.
Holder, who has held the Class A Ordinary Shares for more than one year, you will generally be eligible for reduced tax rates. The deductibility
of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any such gain or loss that you recognize will generally be treated as United States source
income or loss for foreign tax credit limitation purposes which will generally limit the availability of foreign tax credits.
Passive
Foreign Investment Company (PFIC) Consequences
A
non-U.S. corporation is considered a PFIC, as defined in Section 1297(a) of the US Internal Revenue Code, for any taxable year if either:
|
● |
at least 75% of its gross
income for such taxable year is passive income; or |
|
|
|
|
● |
at least 50% of the value
of its assets (based on an average of the quarterly values of the assets during a taxable year) is attributable to assets that produce
or are held for the production of passive income (the “asset test”). |
Passive
income generally includes dividends, interest, rents and royalties (other than rents or royalties derived from the active conduct of
a trade or business) and gains from the disposition of passive assets. We will be treated as owning our proportionate share of the assets
and earning our proportionate share of the income of any other corporation in which we own, directly or indirectly, at least 25% (by
value) of the stock. In determining the value and composition of our assets for purposes of the PFIC asset test, (1) the cash we raise
in this offering will generally be considered to be held for the production of passive income and (2) the value of our assets must be
determined based on the market value of our Class A Ordinary Shares from time to time, which could cause the value of our non-passive
assets to be less than 50% of the value of all of our assets (including the cash raised in this offering) on any particular quarterly
testing date for purposes of the asset test.
Based
on our operations and the composition of our assets we do not expect to be treated as a PFIC under the current PFIC rules. We must make
a separate determination each year as to whether we are a PFIC, however, there can be no assurance with respect to our status as a PFIC
for our current taxable year or any future taxable year. Depending on the amount of cash we raise in this offering, together with any
other assets held for the production of passive income, it is possible that, for our current taxable year or for any subsequent taxable
year, more than 50% of our assets may be assets held for the production of passive income. We will make this determination following
the end of any particular tax year. In addition, because the value of our assets for purposes of the asset test will generally be determined
based on the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares and because cash is generally considered to be an asset held for the production
of passive income, our PFIC status will depend in large part on the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares and the amount of cash
we raise in this offering. Accordingly, fluctuations in the market price of the Class A Ordinary Shares may cause us to become a PFIC.
In addition, the application of the PFIC rules is subject to uncertainty in several respects and the composition of our income and assets
will be affected by how, and how quickly, we spend the cash we raise in this offering. We are under no obligation to take steps to reduce
the risk of our being classified as a PFIC, and as stated above, the determination of the value of our assets will depend upon material
facts (including the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares from time to time and the amount of cash we raise in this offering)
that may not be within our control. If we are a PFIC for any year during which you hold Class A Ordinary Shares, we will continue to
be treated as a PFIC for all succeeding years during which you hold Class A Ordinary Shares. If we cease to be a PFIC and you did not
previously make a timely “mark-to-market” election as described below, you may still avoid some of the adverse effects of
the PFIC regime by making a “purging election” (as described below) with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares.
If
we are a PFIC for your taxable year(s) during which you hold Class A Ordinary Shares, you will be subject to special tax rules with respect
to any “excess distribution” that you receive and any gain you realize from a sale or other disposition (including a pledge)
of the Class A Ordinary Shares, unless you make a “mark-to-market” election as discussed below. Distributions you receive
in a taxable year that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions you received during the shorter of the three preceding
taxable years or your holding period for the Class A Ordinary Shares will be treated as an excess distribution. Under these special tax
rules:
|
● |
the excess distribution
or gain will be allocated ratably over your holding period for the Class A Ordinary Shares; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the amount allocated to
your current taxable year, and any amount allocated to any of your taxable year(s) prior to the first taxable year in which we were
a PFIC, will be treated as ordinary income, and |
|
|
|
|
● |
the amount allocated to
each of your other taxable year(s) will be subject to the highest tax rate in effect for that year and the interest charge generally
applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the resulting tax attributable to each such year. |
The
tax liability for amounts allocated to years prior to the year of disposition or “excess distribution” cannot be offset by
any net operating losses for such years, and gains (but not losses) realized on the sale of the Class A Ordinary Shares cannot be treated
as capital, even if you hold the Class A Ordinary Shares as capital assets.
A
U.S. Holder of “marketable stock” (as defined below) in a PFIC may make a mark-to-market election under Section 1296 of the
US Internal Revenue Code for such stock to elect out of the tax treatment discussed above. If you make a mark-to-market election for
first taxable year which you hold (or are deemed to hold) Class A Ordinary Shares and for which we are determined to be a PFIC, you will
include in your income each year an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Class A Ordinary Shares as of
the close of such taxable year over your adjusted basis in such Class A Ordinary Shares, which excess will be treated as ordinary income
and not capital gain. You are allowed an ordinary loss for the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of the Class A Ordinary Shares over
their fair market value as of the close of the taxable year. Such ordinary loss, however, is allowable only to the extent of any net
mark-to-market gains on the Class A Ordinary Shares included in your income for prior taxable years. Amounts included in your income
under a mark-to-market election, as well as gain on the actual sale or other disposition of the Class A Ordinary Shares, are treated
as ordinary income. Ordinary loss treatment also applies to any loss realized on the actual sale or disposition of the Class A Ordinary
Shares, to the extent that the amount of such loss does not exceed the net mark-to-market gains previously included for such Class A
Ordinary Shares. Your basis in the Class A Ordinary Shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts. If you make a
valid mark-to-market election, the tax rules that apply to distributions by corporations which are not PFICs would apply to distributions
by us, except that the lower applicable capital gains rate for qualified dividend income discussed above under “—Taxation
of Dividends and Other Distributions on our Class A Ordinary Shares” generally would not apply.
The
mark-to-market election is available only for “marketable stock,” which is stock that is traded in other than de minimis
quantities on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter (“regularly traded”) on a qualified exchange or other market
(as defined in applicable U.S. Treasury regulations), including the Nasdaq Capital Market. If the Class A Ordinary Shares are regularly
traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market and if you are a holder of Class A Ordinary Shares, the mark-to-market election would be available
to you were we to be or become a PFIC.
Alternatively,
a U.S. Holder of stock in a PFIC may make a “qualified electing fund” election under Section 1295(b) of the U.S. Internal
Revenue Code with respect to such PFIC to elect out of the tax treatment discussed above. A U.S. Holder who makes a valid qualified electing
fund election with respect to a PFIC will generally include in gross income for a taxable year such holder’s pro rata share of
the corporation’s earnings and profits for the taxable year. The qualified electing fund election, however, is available only if
such PFIC provides such U.S. Holder with certain information regarding its earnings and profits as required under applicable U.S. Treasury
regulations. We do not currently intend to prepare or provide the information that would enable you to make a qualified electing fund
election. If you hold Class A Ordinary Shares in any taxable year in which we are a PFIC, you will be required to file U.S. Internal
Revenue Service Form 8621 in each such year and provide certain annual information regarding such Class A Ordinary Shares, including
regarding distributions received on the Class A Ordinary Shares and any gain realized on the disposition of the Class A Ordinary Shares.
If
you do not make a timely “mark-to-market” election (as described above), and if we were a PFIC at any time during the period
you hold our Class A Ordinary Shares, then such Class A Ordinary Shares will continue to be treated as stock of a PFIC with respect to
you even if we cease to be a PFIC in a future year, unless you make a “purging election” for the year we cease to be a PFIC.
A “purging election” creates a deemed sale of such Class A Ordinary Shares at their fair market value on the last day of
the last year in which we are treated as a PFIC. The gain recognized by the purging election will be subject to the special tax and interest
charge rules treating the gain as an excess distribution, as described above. As a result of the purging election, you will have a new
basis (equal to the fair market value of the Class A Ordinary Shares on the last day of the last year in which we are treated as a PFIC)
and holding period (which new holding period will begin the day after such last day) in your Class A Ordinary Shares for tax purposes.
IRC
Section 1014(a) provides for a step-up in basis to the fair market value for our Class A Ordinary Shares when inherited from a decedent
that was previously a holder of our Class A Ordinary Shares. However, if we are determined to be a PFIC and a decedent that was a U.S.
Holder did not make either a timely qualified electing fund election for our first taxable year as a PFIC in which the U.S. Holder held
(or was deemed to hold) our Class A Ordinary Shares, or a mark-to-market election and ownership of those Class A Ordinary Shares are
inherited, a special provision in IRC Section 1291(e) provides that the new U.S. Holder’s basis should be reduced by an amount
equal to the Section 1014 basis minus the decedent’s adjusted basis just before death. As such if we are determined to be a PFIC
at any time prior to a decedent’s passing, the PFIC rules will cause any new U.S. Holder that inherits our Class A Ordinary Shares
from a U.S. Holder to not get a step-up in basis under Section 1014 and instead will receive a carryover basis in those Class A Ordinary
Shares.
You
are urged to consult your tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to your investment in our Class A Ordinary Shares
and the elections discussed above.
Information
Reporting and Backup Withholding
Dividend
payments with respect to our Class A Ordinary Shares and proceeds from the sale, exchange or redemption of our Class A Ordinary Shares
may be subject to information reporting to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and possible U.S. backup withholding under Section 3406
of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code with at a current flat rate of 24%. Backup withholding will not apply, however, to a U.S. Holder who
furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number and makes any other required certification on U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9
or who is otherwise exempt from backup withholding. U.S. Holders who are required to establish their exempt status generally must provide
such certification on U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application
of the U.S. information reporting and backup withholding rules.
Backup
withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld as backup withholding may be credited against your U.S. federal income tax liability,
and you may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules by filing the appropriate claim for refund
with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and furnishing any required information. We do not intend to withhold taxes for individual shareholders.
Transactions effected through certain brokers or other intermediaries, however, may be subject to withholding taxes (including backup
withholding), and such brokers or intermediaries may be required by law to withhold such taxes.
Under
the Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act of 2010, certain U.S. Holders are required to report information relating to our Class
A Ordinary Shares, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for Class A Ordinary Shares held in accounts maintained by certain
financial institutions), by attaching a complete Internal Revenue Service Form 8938, Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets,
with their tax return for each year in which they hold Class A Ordinary Shares. Failure to report such information could result in substantial
penalties. You should consult your own tax advisor regarding your obligation to file a Form 8938.

over-allotments, if any. If this option is exercised in full, the total price to the public will be $14,374,998 and the total net proceeds,
before expenses, to us will be approximately $13.37 million.
The
underwriters are offering the Units subject to their acceptance of the Units from us and
subject to prior sale. The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the underwriters
to pay for and accept delivery of the Class A Ordinary Shares and accompanying Warrants offered
by this prospectus are subject to the approval of certain legal matters by its counsel and
to other conditions. The underwriters are obligated to take and pay for all of the Units
offered by this prospectus if any such Units are taken.

Warrants
The following summary of certain terms and provisions
of the Pre-funded Warrants, Series A Warrants, and Series B Warrants offered hereby is not complete and is subject to, and qualified
in its entirety by, the provisions of the form of the Pre-funded Warrants, Series A Warrants, Series B Warrants and warrant agent agreement,
which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part of. Prospective investors should carefully
review the terms and provisions set forth in the applicable form of warrant and the warrant agent agreement.
The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable on
issuance at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share of Class A Ordinary Shares and will not expire until exercised in full. The 5-year
term Series A Warrants are exercisable upon issuance and have an initial exercise price of $[ ] per Class A Ordinary
Share. On the sixteenth (16th) Trading Day following the Closing of this offering (the “Series B Exercise Date”),
the exercise price of the Series A Warrant will be adjusted to $[ ], i.e., one fifth of the per Unit offering price,
and the maximum number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrant will be adjusted to 20,833,333 shares, i.e., five times
of the initial number of shares issuable. The 5-year Series B Warrants will be exercisable at any time or times on or after the Series
B Exercise Date at an exercise price of $0.0001 per Class A Ordinary Share. The maximum number of shares issuable upon exercise of the
Series B Warrants will be 16,666,667 shares, obtained by subtracting (I) the sum of (x) the aggregate number of shares sold on the Closing
Date and (y) the number of Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise in full of any Pre-funded Warrants, from (II) the quotient
determined by dividing (x) the sum of (i) the aggregate purchase price paid and (ii) the aggregate of all exercise prices paid or payable
upon exercise in full of the Pre-Funded Warrants, by (y) $[ ], which equals to 20% of the Nasdaq Minimum Price under
the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) immediately prior to effectiveness of this Registration Statement. As described above, based on an estimate
offering price of $[ ] per Unit, the initial and adjusted exercise prices of the Series A Warrants are $[ ]
and $[ ], respectively, and the maximum aggregate maximum number of Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of
the Series A Warrant is 20,833,333 shares; the exercise prices of the Series B Warrants is $0.0001, and the maximum aggregate maximum
number of Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Series B Warrant is 16,666,667 shares. For the avoidance of doubts, the adjusted exercise
price of Series A Warrants, the number of shares underlying the Series A Warrants and the Series B Warrants bears no relevance to any
market price of the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares after the effectiveness of this Registration Statement.
The Warrants will be issued in registered form
under a warrant agent agreement between Transhare Corporation, as warrant agent, and us. The Warrants will initially be represented only
by one or more global warrants deposited with the warrant agent, as custodian on behalf of The Depository Trust Company, or DTC, and
registered in the name of Cede & Co., a nominee of DTC, or as otherwise directed by DTC.
We have registered the Warrants and the Warrant
Shares under the Securities Act through this registration statement. The Warrants will be exercisable immediately at the issuance date
and terminate on the fifth anniversary of the original issuance date. The Warrants may be exercised as to all or a lesser number of Class
A Ordinary Shares in cash or will provide for cashless exercise in the event there is no effective registration statement covering the
issuance of the Warrant Shares. The exercise price and number of Warrant Shares may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including in
the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary cash dividend or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation.
Tail Financing
We have agreed that the Representative
shall be entitled to a cash fee equal to seven percent (7%) of the gross proceeds received by us from the sale of any equity, debt and/or
equity derivative instruments to any investor actually introduced by the Representative to us during the Engagement Period, in connection
with any public or private financing or capital raise (each a “Tail Financing”), and such Tail Financing is consummated any
time during the Engagement Period or within the twelve (12) month period following the expiration or termination of the Engagement Period,
provided that such Tail Financing is by a party actually introduced to us by the Representative in an offering in which the Company has
direct knowledge of such party’s participation through emails or conference calls. Such right shall be subject to FINRA Rule 5110(g)(5),
including that it may be terminated by the Company for cause in case of the Representative’s material failure to provide the services
contemplated in the underwriting agreement.
Right
of First Refusal
Following the closing of this offering, we have
agreed, provided that this offering is completed, that until 12 months after the date this offering is completed, the Representative
shall have a right of first refusal to act as sole investment banker, sole book-runner, and/or sole placement agent at its sole discretion,
for each and every future public and private equity and debt offering, including all equity linked financings (each a “Subject
Transaction”), during such 12-month period, of our Company, or any successor to or any current or future subsidiary of our Company,
provided, however, that such right shall be subject to FINRA Rule 5110(g), including that the right of first refusal may be terminated
by the Company for cause in case of the Representative’s material failure to provide the services contemplated in the underwriting
agreement. During such 12-month period, the Representative shall have the sole right to determine whether any other broker dealer shall
have the right to participate in a Subject Transaction and the economic terms of such participation, and we shall not retain, engage
or solicit any additional investment banker, book-runner, financial advisor, underwriter and/or placement agent in a Subject Transaction
without the express written consent of the Representative.
Listing

Class A Ordinary Shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “HAO.”
Indemnification
We
have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. If we are unable
to provide this indemnification, we will contribute to payments that the underwriters may be required to make for these liabilities.
Lock-Up
Agreements
We
have agreed not to, during the Engagement Period, and for a period of 90 days from the closing of the offering (“Lock-Up Period”),
(i) 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, our Class A Ordinary Shares
or Class B Ordinary Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our Class A Ordinary Shares or Class
B Ordinary Shares; (ii) file or cause to be filed any registration statement with the SEC relating to the offering of our Class A Ordinary
Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our Class A Ordinary Shares or
Class B Ordinary Shares; (iii) complete any offering of debt securities of our Company, other than entering into a line of credit with
a traditional bank; or (iv) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic
consequences of ownership of capital shares of our Company, whether any such transaction described in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv)
above is to be settled by delivery of shares of our Class A Ordinary Shares or such other securities, in cash, or otherwise.
Furthermore,
each of our officers, directors, and shareholders of 5% or more of our Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares (and all shareholders
of securities exercisable for or convertible into our Class A Ordinary Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares) have agreed with the Representative
not to offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant
any option, right, or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise to transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Class A Ordinary
Shares, Class B Ordinary Shares, or other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Class A Ordinary Shares or Class
B Ordinary Shares for a period of 180 days from the closing of this offering without the prior written consent of the Representative.
Pricing
of the Offering
The offering price of the Units will be negotiated
between us and the underwriters. Among the factors considered in determining the offering price of the Units, 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.
Electronic
Offer, Sale, and Distribution of Class A Ordinary Shares
A
prospectus in electronic format may be made available on the websites maintained by the underwriters. In addition, Class A Ordinary Shares
may be sold by the underwriters to securities dealers who resell Class A Ordinary Shares to online brokerage account holders. The Class
A Ordinary Shares to be sold pursuant to Internet distributions will be allocated on the same basis as other allocations. Other than
the prospectus in electronic format, the information on 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 underwriters, and
should not be relied upon by investors.
Price
Stabilization, Short Positions, and Penalty Bids
In
connection with this offering, the underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain, or otherwise affect the price of
our Class A Ordinary Shares. Specifically, the underwriters may sell more Class A Ordinary 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 Class A Ordinary Shares available for purchase by the underwriters under option to purchase additional Class A Ordinary Shares. The
underwriters can close out a covered short sale by exercising the option to purchase additional Class A Ordinary Shares or purchasing
Class A Ordinary Shares in the open market. In determining the source of Class A Ordinary Shares to close out a covered short sale, the
underwriters will consider, among other things, the open market price of Class A Ordinary Shares compared to the price available under
the option to purchase additional Class A Ordinary Shares. The underwriters may also sell Class A Ordinary Shares in excess of the option
to purchase additional Class A Ordinary Shares, creating a naked short position. The underwriters must close out any naked short position
by purchasing Class A Ordinary Shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are
concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the Class A Ordinary Shares in the open market after pricing that could
adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering.
The
underwriters may also impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter or dealer repays selling concessions allowed to
it for distributing our Class A Ordinary Shares in this offering because such underwriter repurchases those Class A Ordinary Shares in
stabilizing or short covering transactions.
Finally,
the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, our Class A Ordinary Shares in market making transactions, including “passive”
market making transactions as described below.
These
activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of our Class A Ordinary Shares at a price that is higher than the price that might
otherwise exist in the absence of these activities. The underwriters are 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 offering, the underwriters may engage in passive market making transactions in our Class A Ordinary Shares 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 Class A Ordinary 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
underwriters and their 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 underwriters and their 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 underwriters and
their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities

instruments.

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.

addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the underwriters and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the
Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Haoxi
Health Technology Limited
Opinion
on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets of Haoxi Health Technology Limited and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2023 and 2022 and the
related statements of operations and comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each
of the years in the two-year period ended June 30, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated
financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of
the years in the two-year period ended June 30, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America.
Basis
for Opinion
These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company
in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
and the PCAOB.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to
error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial
reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not
for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly,
we express no such opinion.
Our
audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated
financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

HEALTH TECHNOLOGY LIMITED
NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED JUNE 30, 2023 AND 2022 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1
– ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Haoxi
Health Technology Limited (“Haoxi”) is a company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman on August 5, 2022. It is a holding
company with no business operations.
On
August 30, 2022, Haoxi formed its wholly owned subsidiary, Haoxi Information Limited (“Haoxi HK”), in Hong Kong. On October
13, 2022, Haoxi HK formed its wholly owned subsidiary, Beijing Haoxi Health Technology Co., Limited (“WFOE”), in the People’s
Republic of China (the “PRC”).
Beijing
Haoxi Digital Technology Co., Ltd. (“Haoxi BJ”) is a limited liability company incorporated on September 26, 2018, under
the laws of China.
On
November 25, 2022, WFOE acquired 100% equity interest of Haoxi BJ, as a result, Haoxi BJ became a wholly-owned subsidiary of WFOE.
As
described below, Haoxi, through a restructuring which is accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control (the “Reorganization”),
became the ultimate parent entity of its subsidiary, Haoxi BJ. Accordingly, Haoxi consolidates Haoxi BJ’s operations, assets, and
liabilities. Haoxi and its subsidiaries, are collectively hereinafter referred as the “Company.”
Haoxi
together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, Haoxi HK, WFOE, and Haoxi BJ, were effectively controlled by the same shareholders before
and after the Reorganization and, therefore, the Reorganization is considered one for entities under common control. The consolidation
of the Company has been accounted for at historical cost and prepared on the basis as if the Reorganization had become effective as of
the beginning of the first period presented in the consolidated financial statements.
The Company’s
current corporate structure is as follows:

NOTE 2
– SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a)
Basis of presentation
The
accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements (“CFS”) were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and have been consistently applied for information pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
(b)
Principles of consolidation
The
CFS include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries for which the Company exercises control and, when applicable, entities
in which the Company has a controlling financial interest or the ultimate primary beneficiary.
All
transactions and balances between the Company and its subsidiaries were eliminated in the consolidation.
(c)
Use of estimates
In
preparing the CFS in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the CFS, as well as the reported amounts of revenue
and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to,
the assessment of the allowance for doubtful accounts, useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, the recoverability
of long-lived assets, uncertain tax position, purchase price allocations for business combination, impairment assessment for goodwill
and realization of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(d)
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash
includes cash on hand and demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal
or use in accounts maintained with commercial banks. The Company maintains bank accounts in mainland China. Cash balances in bank accounts
in mainland China are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or other programs.
(e)
Accounts receivable, net
Accounts
receivable are presented net of allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company reduces accounts receivable by recording an allowance for
doubtful accounts to account for the estimated impact of collection issues resulting from a client’s inability or unwillingness
to pay valid obligations to the Company. The Company determines the adequacy of allowance for doubtful accounts based on individual account
analysis, historical collection trend, and best estimate of specific losses on individual exposures. The Company establishes a provision
for doubtful receivable when there is objective evidence that the Company may not be able to collect amounts due. Actual amounts received
may differ from management’s estimate of credit worthiness and the economic environment.
(f)
Advances to suppliers, net
Advances
to suppliers are balances paid to suppliers for services that have not been provided or received. The Company reviews its advances to
suppliers periodically and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the ability of a supplier to provide supplies
to the Company or refund an advance.
NOTE 2
– SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
(g)
Property and equipment, net
Property
and equipment are carried at cost and are depreciated on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the underlying assets.
The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired
or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses
are included in income in the year of disposition. The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of its property and
equipment when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable.
Estimated
useful lives are as follows, taking into account the assets’ estimated residual value:
Category |
|
Estimated
useful
lives |
Electronic equipment |
|
3 years |
(h)
Impairment of long-lived assets
The
Company reviews long-lived assets, including definitive-lived intangible assets and property and equipment, for impairment whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When such events occur, the Company
assesses the recoverability of the asset group based on the undiscounted future cash flows the asset group is expected to generate and
recognizes an impairment loss when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset group plus net
proceeds expected from disposition of the asset group, if any, is less than the carrying value of the asset group. If the Company identifies
an impairment, the Company reduces the carrying amount of the asset group to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flow
approach or, when available and appropriate, to comparable market values and the impairment loss, if any, is recognized in “Others,
net” in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). The Company uses estimates and judgments in its impairment
tests and if different estimates or judgments had been utilized, the timing or the amount of any impairment charges could be different.
Asset groups to be disposed of would be reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and no longer
depreciated.
(i)
Fair value of financial instruments
ASC
825-10 requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value (“FV”) of financial instruments. FV is defined as the price
that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date. A three-level FV hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure FV. The hierarchy requires entities to maximize the
use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure FV are as follows:
|
● |
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 market prices for identical
or similar assets in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and inputs derived from or
corroborated by observable market data. |
|
● |
Level 3 - inputs to the
valuation methodology are unobservable. |
Unless
otherwise disclosed, the FV of the Company’s financial instruments including cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, advances
to suppliers, prepaid expenses and other current assets, short-term bank loans, accounts payable, advance from customers, due to related
parties, taxes payable, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their recorded values due to their short-term
maturities. The FV of longer-term leases approximates their recorded values as their stated interest rates approximate the rates currently
available.
The
Company’s non-financial assets, such as property and equipment would be measured at FV only if they were determined to be impaired.

(j)
Leases
The Company follows Accounting Standards Update
(“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (as amended by ASU 2018-01, 2018-10, 2018-11, 2018-20, and 2019-01, collectively “ASC 842”).
The Company elected not to record assets and liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet for new or existing lease arrangements with
terms of 12 months or less. The Company recognizes lease expenses for such lease on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
At
the commencement date of a lease, the Company recognizes a lease liability for future fixed lease payments and a right of use (“ROU”)
asset representing the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term. The lease liability is initially measured as the present
value of the future fixed lease payments that will be made over the lease term. The lease term includes periods for which it’s
reasonably certain that the renewal options will be exercised and periods for which it’s reasonably certain that the termination
options will not be exercised. The future fixed lease payments are discounted using the rate implicit in the lease, if available, or
the incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”). The Company will evaluate the carrying value of ROU assets if there are indicators
of impairment and review the recoverability of the related asset group. If the carrying value of the asset group is determined to not
be recoverable and is in excess of the estimated fair value, the Company will record an impairment loss in other expenses in the consolidated
statements of operations.

Revenue recognition
The
Company is an online marketing solutions provider which provides customer-tailored internet marketing services based on data analysis
technology. The Company’s revenue primarily includes advertising service revenue.
Revenue
from advertising services primarily consists of revenue from providing online advertising services. Revenue represents the amount of
consideration that the Company is entitled to in exchange for the transfer of promised services in the ordinary course of the Company’s
activities and is recorded net of value-added tax (“VAT”). Consistent with the criteria of ASC 606, the Company recognizes
revenue when the performance obligation in a contract is satisfied by transferring the control of a promised service to a customer. The
Company also evaluates whether it is appropriate to record the gross amounts of services sold and the related costs, or the net amounts
earned as commissions. Payments for services are generally received after deliveries. In the event the Company receives an advance from
a customer, such advance is recorded as a liability to the Company.
Online
Marketing solutions Services
The
Company provides one-stop online marketing solutions, including traffic acquisition from top online media platforms, content production,
data analysis and advertising campaign optimization, to its advertisers. The term “traffic acquisition” refers to the process
of advertising and acquiring a target audience on online media platforms. It charges the advertisers primarily based on a mix of Cost-Per-Click
(“CPC”) (recognize revenue when specified action, such as click-throughs, is performed) or Cost-Per-Time (“CPT”)
(recognize revenue over the period of the contract by reference to the progress towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation).
Media partners may also grant to it rebates mainly based on gross advertisement spending (i) in the form of advance for future traffic
acquisition; (ii) to net off the account payables the Company owed to them; or (iii) in cash.
While
none of the factors individually are considered presumptive or determinative, under this business model, the Company is the primary obligor
and responsible for (i) identifying and contracting with third-party advertisers which the Company views as customers, and delivering
the specified integrated services to the advertisers; (ii) bearing certain risks of loss to the extent that the cost incurred for producing
contents, formulating advertisement campaign and acquiring user traffic from online media platforms cannot be compensated by the total
consideration received from the advertisers, which is similar to inventory risk; and (iii) performing all the billing and collection
activities, including retaining credit risk. The Company assumes ownership in the specified service before the service is delivered to
the advertiser and acts as the principal of these arrangements and therefore recognizes revenue earned and costs incurred related to
these transactions on a gross basis. Under this business model, the rebates earned from media partners are recorded as a reduction of
cost of services.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
The core principle underlying revenue recognition
in ASC 606 is that the Company recognizes revenue for the transfer of services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration
to which the Company expects to be entitled in such exchange. This requires the Company to identify contractual performance obligations
and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time. The Company’s advertising service contracts
have one single performance obligation, being the promise to display customers’ advertisement on the media platform. The services,
such as content production, data analysis and advertising campaign optimizations, are performed as inputs to produce or deliver the combined
output specified by the customer, and are highly interrelated, thus each of services cannot be separately performed to fulfil the promise
and is, therefore, not distinct. Under ASC 606, the related revenues are recognized. When the Company provides services to customers
which are charged based on the CPC model, control of services transfers when the specific action such as click-throughs is performed.
When the Company provides services to customers which are charged based on the time advertised under the CPT model, control of services
transfers over time and revenue is recognized over the period of the contract by reference to the progress, which is measured by the
duration for displaying the advertisement, towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation, which is measured by the elapse
of the displaying period.
CPC, is a performance-based metric and under
which we charge our customers when an Internet user clicks the online advertisement we placed. Most of our customers are charged based
on the CPC mechanism. Under the CPT mechanism, we charge our customers for placing an online short video for a specific period of time.
Few of our customers which intend to promote their brand name on the media platform adopt CPT model.
The transaction price under CPC model for marketing
solutions is based on the bidding price that varies from time to time due to the advertisement bidding price competition mechanism set
by media platforms. Only the advertisement with the highest bidding prices can be displayed and such bidding prices will be recognized
as transaction prices once the internet users click on the advertisements. We receive invoices from media partners. The invoiced fees
contained therein are equal to: (x) traffic acquisition costs (equal to bidding price per click-through multiplied by users’ click-throughs),
minus, (y) rebates from media partners as agreed, and the invoice fees are then recognized as cost of revenue. We then issue invoices
to our advertising customers and charge our advertising customers, with the amount equal to: (x) the traffic acquisition costs, plus,
(y) service charge, and the total amount is recognized as revenue.
Under the CPT model, the transaction price we
charge our advertiser customers for placing advertisement for a specific period of time is contractually agreed by our advertiser customers
and us. We recognize revenue over the period of the contract by reference to the progress, which is measured by the duration for displaying
the advertisement, towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation, which is measured by the elapse of the displaying period.
We receive invoices from media partners equivalent to traffic acquisition costs (equal to the predetermined CPT by the media platforms,
multiplied by the duration of display) minus rebates from media partners as agreed, and recognize as cost of revenue.
(l) Cost of revenue
The Company’s cost of revenue represents
costs in connection with providing marketing solution services on an incurred basis, and consists primarily of the purchase of online
traffic from third-party media platforms after deducting rebates, and salaries and benefits for staff providing marketing solution services
including content production, data analysis and advertising campaign optimizations.
(m) Research and development expenses
Research and development expenses include costs
directly attributable to the conduct of research and development projects, primarily consist of salaries and other employee benefits.
All costs associated with research and development are expensed as incurred.
(n) Advertising Expense
Advertising expenses primarily consist of cost
of online advertising. The Company’s advertising expenses are expensed as incurred and are included as part of selling expenses.
For the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded no advertising expenses.
(o) Financial expenses
Financial expenses include interest expenses
on short-term loans, unrecognized finance fees and guarantee expenses incurred for acquiring the short-term loans.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
(p) Mainland China Employee Contribution Plan
As stipulated by the regulations of the PRC,
full-time employees of the Company are entitled to various government statutory employee benefit plans, including medical insurance,
maternity insurance, workplace injury insurance, unemployment insurance and pension benefits through a PRC government-mandated multi-employer
defined contribution plan. The Company is required to make contributions to the plan based on certain percentages of employees’
salaries. The total expenses the Company incurred for the plan were $86,186 and $41,144 for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
(q) Income taxes
The Company’s subsidiaries in mainland
China and Hong Kong are subject to the income tax laws of mainland China and Hong Kong. No taxable income was generated outside the PRC
for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires
an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes and allows recognition and measurement of deferred
tax assets based upon the likelihood of realization of tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred
taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more
likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or future deductibility is uncertain.
ASC 740-10-25 prescribes a more-likely-than-not
threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. It also
provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification accounting for interest and penalties associated
with tax positions, years open for tax examination, accounting for income taxes in interim periods and income tax disclosures. There
were no material uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2023 and 2022.
(r) Value added tax (“VAT”)
Sales revenue is the invoiced value of goods,
net of VAT. The VAT is based on gross sales price and VAT rate is approximately 6%. The VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company
on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing or acquiring its finished products. The Company recorded a VAT
payable or receivable net of payments in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. All of the VAT returns filed by the Company’s
subsidiaries in the PRC, have been and remain subject to examination by the tax authorities for five years from the date of filing.
(s) Earnings per share
The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”)
in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“ASC 260”). ASC 260 requires companies with complex capital
structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income divided by the weighted average ordinary shares outstanding
for the period. Diluted EPS takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue ordinary
shares were exercised and converted into ordinary shares. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no dilutive securities.
(t) Comprehensive income
Comprehensive income consists of two components,
net income and other comprehensive income(loss). Other comprehensive income(loss) refers to revenue, expenses, gains, and losses that
under U.S. GAAP are recorded as an element of stockholders’ equity but are excluded from net income. Other comprehensive income(loss)
consists of foreign currency translation adjustment from the Company not using U.S. dollar as its functional currency.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(cont.)
(u) Foreign currency translation and transactions
The Company’s principal country of operations
is the PRC. The financial position and results of its operations are determined using RMB, the local currency, as the functional currency.
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are reported using the U.S. Dollars (“US$” or “$”). The
results of operations and the consolidated statements of cash flows denominated in foreign currency are translated at the average rate
of exchange during the reporting period. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated
at the applicable rates of exchange in effect at that date. The equity denominated in the functional currency is translated at the historical
rate of exchange at the time of capital contribution. Because cash flows are translated based on the average translation rate, amounts
related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the
corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from
period to period are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) included in consolidated statements
of changes in shareholders’ equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in the Company’s Consolidated
Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.
The value of RMB against US$ and other currencies
may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in the PRC’s political and economic conditions. Any significant revaluation
of RMB may materially affect the Company’s financial condition in terms of US$ reporting. The following table outlines the currency
exchange rates that were used in preparing the CFS:

(v) Segment reporting
ASC 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes
standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organizational structure
as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in financial statements for details on the Company’s
business segments.
The Company uses the management approach to determine
reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s
chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) for making decisions, allocating resources and assessing performance. The Company’s
CODM has been identified as the CEO, who reviews consolidated results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing
performance of the Company.
Based on the management’s assessment, the
Company determined it has only one operating segment and therefore one reportable segment as defined by ASC 280. The Company’s
assets are substantially all located in the PRC and substantially all of the Company’s revenue and expense are derived in the PRC.
Therefore, no geographical segments are presented.
(w) Statements of cash flows
In accordance with ASC 230, Statement of
Cash Flows, cash flows from the Company’s operations are formulated based upon the local currencies using the average exchange
rate in the period. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows will not necessarily
agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES (cont.)
(aa) Significant risks
Currency risk
A majority of the Company’s expense transactions
are denominated in RMB and a significant portion of the Company and its subsidiaries’ assets and liabilities are denominated in
RMB. RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. In the PRC, certain foreign exchange transactions are required by law to
be transacted only by authorized financial institutions at exchange rates set by the People’s Bank of China (“PBOC”).
Remittances in currencies other than RMB by the Company in China must be processed through the PBOC or other Company foreign exchange
regulatory bodies which require certain supporting documentation in order to affect the remittances.
The Company maintains certain bank accounts in
the PRC. On May 1, 2015, China’s new Deposit Insurance Regulation came into effect, pursuant to which banking financial institutions,
such as commercial banks, established in the PRC are required to purchase deposit insurance for deposits in RMB and in foreign currency
placed with them. Such Deposit Insurance Regulation would not be effective in providing complete protection for the Company’s accounts,
as its aggregate deposits are much higher than the compensation limit, which is RMB500,000 for one bank (approximately $70,000). However,
the Company believes that the risk of failure of any of these Chinese banks is remote. Bank failure is uncommon in the PRC and the Company
believes that those Chinese banks that hold the Company’s cash, restricted cash and short-term investments are financially sound
based on public available information.
Other than the deposit insurance mechanism in
the PRC mentioned above, the Company’s bank accounts are not insured by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance or other
insurance.
Concentration and credit risk
Currently, all of the Company’s operations
are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced
by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC’s economy. The Company’s
operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in U.S. The
Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary
measures, currency conversion and remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.
Financial instruments which potentially subject
the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts receivable –
related parties, advances to suppliers and amounts due from related parties. A portion of the Company’s sales are credit sales
which are to the customers whose ability to pay is dependent upon the industry economics prevailing in these areas; however, concentrations
of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivables is limited due to generally short payment terms. The Company also performs
ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to help further reduce credit risk.
Interest rate risk
Fluctuations in market interest rates may negatively
affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company is exposed to floating interest rate risk on cash
deposit and floating rate borrowings, and the risks due to changes in interest rates is not material. The Company has not used any derivative
financial instruments to manage the Company’s interest risk exposure.
Other uncertainty risk
The Company’s major operations are conducted
in the PRC. Accordingly, the political, economic, and legal environments in the PRC, as well as the general state of the PRC’s
economy may influence the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The Company’s major operations in the PRC
are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in U.S. These include risks associated
with, among others, the political, economic, and legal environment. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes
in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, and rates and methods of taxation, among other
things. Although the Company has not experienced losses from these situations and believes that it is in compliance with existing laws
and regulations including its organization and structure disclosed in Note 1, this may not be indicative of future results.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES (cont.)
(bb) Related parties
A party is considered related to the Company
if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with
the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal
owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly
influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from
fully pursuing its own separate interests. A party which can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting
parties or if it has an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that
one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests is also a related party.
(cc) Recent accounting pronouncements
The Company considers the applicability and impact
of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued.
As an “emerging growth company,”
or EGC, the Company has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities
Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards applicable to private companies. The amendments in this ASU and its subsequent
amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods beginning after December
15, 2022. While the Company continues to evaluate certain aspects of the new standard, it does not expect the new standard to have a
material effect on its financial statements and the Company does not expect a significant change in its leasing activities between now
and adoption.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (“FASB”) issued ASU2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). The amendments in this ASU require a
financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected.
The amendments broaden the information that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured
either collectively or individually. The use of forecasted information incorporates more timely information in the estimate of expected
credit loss, which will be more decision useful to users of the financial statements. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods
beginning after December 15, 2019 for issuers and December 15, 2020 for non-issuers. Early adoption is permitted for all entities for
annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments—Credit
Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief. This ASU adds optional transition relief for entities to elect the fair value option
for certain financial assets previously measured at amortized cost basis to increase comparability of similar financial assets. The ASUs
should be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which
the guidance is effective (that is, a modified retrospective approach). On November 19, 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10 to amend the
effective date for ASU 2016-13 to be fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods therein. The Company adopted
this ASU on July 1, 2023 and expects the adoption will not have a material impact on the Company’s CFS .
In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-10,
“Codification Improvements.” The amendments in this ASU represent changes to clarify the Codification or correct unintended
application of guidance that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative
cost to most entities. The amendments in this ASU affect a wide variety of Topics in the Codification and apply to all reporting entities
within the scope of the affected accounting guidance. ASU 2020-10 is effective for annual periods beginning after July 1, 2021 for public
business entities. Early application is permitted. The amendments in this ASU should be applied retrospectively. The Company adopted
this ASU as of July 1, 2022 and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s CFS .
In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, Leases
(Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements, which Offers private companies, as well as not-for-profit entities that are not conduit bond
obligors, a practical expedient that gives them the option of using the written terms and conditions of a common-control arrangement
when determining whether a lease exists and the subsequent accounting for the lease, including the lease’s classification and Amends
the accounting for leasehold improvements in common-control arrangements for all entities. The Company continues to evaluate the impact
of ASU 2023-01 on its CFS.
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 CFS.

NOTE 11 – SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Ordinary shares
On August 5, 2022, Haoxi’s shareholders
approved a Memorandum and Articles of Association, pursuant to which 150,000,000 shares were authorized as Class A ordinary shares and
50,000,000 shares were authorized as Class B ordinary shares with a nominal or par value of $0.0001 per share (each is hereinafter referred
to as “Class A Ordinary Shares” and “Class B Ordinary Shares”). Class A Ordinary Shares are entitled to one vote
per share and Class B Ordinary Shares are entitled to 10 votes per share. Haoxi issued 17,270,000 Class B Ordinary Shares to Mr. Fan
Zhen and 7,730,000 Class A Ordinary Shares to Mr. Lei Xu and four other shareholders on August 5, 2022. On November 28, 2022, the Company
issued 4,480,000 Class A Ordinary Shares to an investor, with the par value credited to ordinary shares.
Statuary Reserve
In
accordance with the Regulations on Enterprises of PRC, WFOE and Haoxi BJ in the PRC are required
to provide statutory reserves, which are appropriated from net profit as reported in the
Company’s PRC statutory accounts. They are required to allocate 10% of their after-tax
profits to fund statutory reserves until such reserves have reached 50% of their respective
registered capital. These reserve funds, however, may not be distributed as cash dividends.
As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the statutory reserves of WFOE and Haoxi BJ have not accumulated
retained earnings and, thus, are not required to appropriate statutory reserves. As of June
30, 2023 and 2022, the balances of the statutory reserves were $nil and nil, respectively.
Restricted net assets
The Company’s ability to pay dividends
is primarily dependent on the Company receiving distributions of funds from its subsidiaries. Relevant PRC statutory laws and regulations
permit payments of dividends by Haoxi BJ, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. The results
of operations reflected in the CFS prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP differ from those reflected in the statutory financial statements
of the Company’s subsidiaries.
Foreign exchange and other regulations in the
PRC may further restrict the Company’s subsidiaries from transferring funds to the Company in the form of dividends, loans and
advances. Amounts restricted include paid-in capital and statutory reserves of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries as determined pursuant
to PRC generally accepted accounting principles. As of June 30, 2023, and 2022, restricted net assets of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries
were $27,778 and $27,778, respectively.
NOTE 12 – TAXES
Corporation Income Tax (“CIT”)

Under the Enterprise Income Tax (“EIT”)
Law of the PRC, domestic enterprises and Foreign Investment Enterprises (the “FIE”) are usually subject to a unified 25%

thin-profit enterprises, the annual taxable income up to RMB1 million ($140,000) is subject to an effective EIT rate of 2.5% from January
1, 2021 to December 31, 2022; where the annual taxable income exceeds RMB 1 million ($140,000) but does not exceed RMB 3 million ($420,000),
the amount in excess of RMB 1 million ($140,000) is subject to an effective EIT rate of 5% from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022.

$ | — | |
The Company’s PRC subsidiaries had cumulative
net operating loss of $568,460 and $1,538,212 as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which may be available for reducing future
taxable income.
As of each reporting date, management considers
evidence, both positive and negative, that could affect its view of the future realization of deferred tax assets. On the basis of this
evaluation, valuation allowance of $142,115 and $384,553 was recorded against the gross deferred tax asset balance as of June 30, 2023
and 2022, respectively. The amount of the deferred tax asset is considered unrealizable because it is more likely than not that the Company
will not generate sufficient future taxable income to utilize this portion of the net operating loss.
The tax payable consisted of the following:

NOTE 14 – CONTINGENCIES
Contingencies
The Company may be involved in various legal
proceedings, claims and other disputes arising from the commercial operations, projects, employees and other matters which, in general,
are subject to uncertainties and in which the outcomes are not predictable. The Company determines whether an estimated loss from a contingency
should be accrued by assessing whether a loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. Although the outcomes of these legal
proceedings cannot be predicted, the Company does not believe these actions, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse impact on
its financial position, results of operations or liquidity. As of June 30, 2023, the Company was not aware of any litigation or lawsuit
against it.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic
![](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1954594/000121390024077909/image_022.jpg)
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization
declared COVID-19 a pandemic—the first pandemic caused by a coronavirus. The pandemic has reached almost every country, resulting
in the implementation of significant governmental measures, including lockdowns, closures, quarantines, and travel bans, intended to
control the spread of the virus. The Chinese government has ordered quarantines, travel restrictions, and the temporary closure of stores
and facilities from early 2020 through the end of 2022. Companies are also taking precautions, such as requiring employees to work remotely,
imposing travel restrictions and temporarily closing businesses.
During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and
2023, COVID-19 pandemic had limited impact on the Company’s operations. The lifting of COVID-19 restrictions in China has not brought
any material changes to the operating entity’s business. However, there are still uncertainties of the pandemic’s future
impact, and the extent of the impact will depend on a number of factors, including the duration and severity of the pandemic, and the
macroeconomic impact of government measures to contain the spread of COVID-19 and related government stimulus measures.
NOTE 15 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions
that occurred after the balance sheet date through October 24, 2023, the date that the consolidated financial statements were available

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Haoxi Health Technology Limited (“Haoxi”)
is a company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman on August 5, 2022. It is a holding company with no business operation.
On August 30, 2022, Haoxi formed its wholly owned
subsidiary, Haoxi Information Limited (“Haoxi HK”), in Hong Kong. On October 13, 2022, Haoxi HK formed its wholly owned subsidiary,
Beijing Haoxi Health Technology Co., Limited (“WFOE”), in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”).
Beijing Haoxi Digital Technology Co., Ltd. (“Haoxi
BJ”) is a limited liability company incorporated on September 26, 2018, under the laws of China.
On November 25, 2022, WFOE acquired 100% equity
interest of Haoxi BJ, as a result, Haoxi BJ became a wholly-owned subsidiary of WFOE.
As described below, Haoxi, through a restructuring
which is accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control (the “Reorganization”), became the ultimate parent
entity of its subsidiary, Haoxi BJ. Accordingly, Haoxi consolidates Haoxi BJ’s operations, assets, and liabilities. Haoxi and its
subsidiaries, are collectively hereinafter referred as the “Company.”
Haoxi together with its wholly owned subsidiaries,
Haoxi HK, WFOE, and Haoxi BJ, were effectively controlled by the same shareholders before and after the Reorganization and, therefore,
the Reorganization is considered one for entities under common control. The consolidation of the Company has been accounted for at historical
cost and prepared on the basis as if the Reorganization had become effective as of the beginning of the first period presented in the
consolidated financial statements.
The Company’s current corporate structure is as follows:
![](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1954594/000121390024077909/image_023.jpg)
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of presentation
The accompanying CFS were prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and have been consistently applied
for information pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
(b) Principles of consolidation
The CFS include the financial statements of the
Company, its subsidiaries for which the Company exercises control and, when applicable, entities in which the Company has a controlling
financial interest or the ultimate primary beneficiary.
All transactions and balances between the Company
and its subsidiaries were eliminated in the consolidation.
(c) Use of estimates
In preparing the CFS in conformity with U.S.
GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent
assets and liabilities at the dates of the CFS, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods.
Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the assessment of the allowance for doubtful
accounts, useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, the recoverability of long-lived assets, uncertain tax position,
purchase price allocations for business combination, impairment assessment for goodwill and realization of deferred tax assets. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
(d) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash includes cash on hand and demand deposits
placed with banks or other financial institutions, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use in accounts maintained with commercial
banks. The Company maintains bank accounts in mainland China. Cash balances in bank accounts in mainland China are not insured by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or other programs.
(e) Accounts receivable, net
Accounts receivable are presented net of allowance
for doubtful accounts. The Company reduces accounts receivable by recording an allowance for doubtful accounts to account for the estimated
impact of collection issues resulting from a client’s inability or unwillingness to pay valid obligations to the Company. The Company
determines the adequacy of allowance for doubtful accounts based on individual account analysis, historical collection trend, and best
estimate of specific losses on individual exposures. The Company establishes a provision for doubtful receivable when there is objective
evidence that the Company may not be able to collect amounts due. Actual amounts received may differ from management’s estimate
of credit worthiness and the economic environment.
(f) Advances to suppliers, net
Advances to suppliers are balances paid to suppliers
for services that have not been provided or received. The Company reviews its advances to suppliers periodically and makes general and
specific allowances when there is doubt as to the ability of a supplier to provide supplies to the Company or refund an advance.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(cont.)
(g) Property and equipment, net
Property and equipment are carried at cost and
are depreciated on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the underlying assets. The cost of repairs and maintenance
is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated
depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of
disposition. The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of its property and equipment when events or changes in circumstances
reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable.
Estimated useful lives are as follows, taking
into account the assets’ estimated residual value:
Category |
|
Estimated
useful
lives |
Electronic equipment |
|
3 years |
(h) Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets, including
definitive-lived intangible assets and property and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When such events occur, the Company assesses the recoverability of the asset
group based on the undiscounted future cash flows the asset group is expected to generate and recognizes an impairment loss when estimated
undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset group plus net proceeds expected from disposition of the
asset group, if any, is less than the carrying value of the asset group. If the Company identifies an impairment, the Company reduces
the carrying amount of the asset group to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flow approach or, when available and appropriate,
to comparable market values and the impairment loss, if any, is recognized in “Others, net” in the consolidated statements
of comprehensive income (loss). The Company uses estimates and judgments in its impairment tests and if different estimates or judgments
had been utilized, the timing or the amount of any impairment charges could be different. Asset groups to be disposed of would be reported
at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and no longer depreciated.
(i) Fair value of financial instruments
ASC 825-10 requires certain disclosures regarding
the FV of financial instruments. FV is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in
an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level FV hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to
measure FV. The hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The
three levels of inputs used to measure FV are as follows:
|
● |
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 market prices for identical
or similar assets in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and inputs derived from or
corroborated by observable market data. |
|
● |
Level 3 - inputs to the
valuation methodology are unobservable. |
Unless otherwise disclosed, the FV of the Company’s
financial instruments including cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, advances to suppliers, prepaid expenses and other current
assets, short-term bank loans, accounts payable, advance from customers, due to related parties, taxes payable, and accrued expenses
and other current liabilities approximate their recorded values due to their short-term maturities. The FV of longer-term leases approximates
their recorded values as their stated interest rates approximate the rates currently available.
The Company’s non-financial assets, such
as property and equipment would be measured at FV only if they were determined to be impaired.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(cont.)
(j) Leases
The Company follows Accounting Standards Update
(“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (as amended by ASU 2018-01, 2018-10, 2018-11, 2018-20, and 2019-01, collectively “ASC 842”).
The Company elected not to record assets and liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet for new or existing lease arrangements with
terms of 12 months or less. The Company recognizes lease expenses for such lease on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
At the commencement date of a lease, the Company
recognizes a lease liability for future fixed lease payments and a right of use (“ROU”) asset representing the right to use
the underlying asset during the lease term. The lease liability is initially measured as the present value of the future fixed lease
payments that will be made over the lease term. The lease term includes periods for which it’s reasonably certain that the renewal
options will be exercised and periods for which it’s reasonably certain that the termination options will not be exercised. The
future fixed lease payments are discounted using the rate implicit in the lease, if available, or the incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”).
The Company will evaluate the carrying value of ROU assets if there are indicators of impairment and review the recoverability of the
related asset group. If the carrying value of the asset group is determined to not be recoverable and is in excess of the estimated fair
value, the Company will record an impairment loss in other expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
(k) Revenue recognition
The Company is an online marketing solutions
provider which provides customer-tailored internet marketing services based on data analysis technology. The Company’s revenue
primarily includes advertising service revenue.
Revenue from advertising services primarily consists
of revenue from providing online advertising services. Revenue represents the amount of consideration that the Company is entitled to
in exchange for the transfer of promised services in the ordinary course of the Company’s activities and is recorded net of value-added
tax (“VAT”). Consistent with the criteria of ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when the performance obligation in a
contract is satisfied by transferring the control of a promised service to a customer. The Company also evaluates whether it is appropriate
to record the gross amounts of services sold and the related costs, or the net amounts earned as commissions. Payments for services are
generally received after deliveries. In the event the Company receives an advance from a customer, such advance is recorded as a liability
to the Company.
Online Marketing solutions Services
The Company provides one-stop online marketing
solutions, including traffic acquisition from top online media platforms, content production, data analysis and advertising campaign
optimization, to its advertisers. It charges the advertisers primarily based on a mix of Cost-Per-Click (“CPC”) (recognize
revenue when specified action, such as click-throughs, is performed) or Cost-Per-Time (“CPT”) (recognized revenue over the
period of the contract by reference to the progress towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation). Media partners may
also grant to it rebates mainly based on gross advertisement spending (i) in the form of prepayments for future traffic acquisition;
(ii) to net off the account payables the Company owed to them; or (iii) in cash.
While none of the factors individually are considered
presumptive or determinative, under this business model, the Company is the primary obligor and responsible for (i) identifying and contracting
with third-party advertisers which the Company views as customers, and delivering the specified integrated services to the advertisers;
(ii) bearing certain risks of loss to the extent that the cost incurred for producing contents, formulating advertisement campaign and
acquiring user traffic from online media platforms cannot be compensated by the total consideration received from the advertisers, which
is similar to inventory risk; and (iii) performing all the billing and collection activities, including retaining credit risk. The Company
assumes ownership in the specified service before the service is delivered to the advertiser and acts as the principal of these arrangements
and therefore recognizes revenue earned and costs incurred related to these transactions on a gross basis. Under this business model,
the rebates earned from media partners are recorded as a reduction of cost of services.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(cont.)
The core principle underlying revenue recognition
in ASC 606 is that the Company recognizes revenue for the transfer of services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration
to which the Company expects to be entitled in such exchange. This requires the Company to identify contractual performance obligations
and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time. The Company’s advertising service contracts
have one single performance obligation, being the promise to display customers’ advertisement on the media platform, The services,
such as content production, data analysis and advertising campaign optimizations, are performed as inputs to produce or deliver the combined
output specified by the customer, and are highly interrelated, thus each of services cannot be separately performed to fulfil the promise
and is, therefore, not distinct. Under ASC 606, the related revenues are recognized. When the Company provides services to customers
which are charged based on the CPC model, control of services transfers when the specific action such as click-throughs is performed.
When the Company provides services to customers which are charged based on the time advertised under the CPT model, control of services
transfers over time and revenue is recognized over the period of the contract by reference to the progress, which is measured by the
duration for displaying the advertisement, towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation, which is measured by the elapse
of the displaying period.
CPC, is a performance-based metric and under
which we charge our customers when an Internet user clicks the online advertisement we placed. Most of our customers are charged based
on the CPC mechanism. Under the CPT mechanism, we charge our customers for placing an online short video for a specific period of time.
Few of our customers which intend to promote their brand name on the media platform adopt CPT model.
The transaction price under CPC model for marketing
solutions is based on the bidding price that varies from time to time due to the advertisement bidding price competition mechanism set
by media platforms. Only the advertisement with the highest bidding prices can be displayed and such bidding prices will be recognized
as transaction prices once the internet users click on the advertisements. We receive invoices from media partners. The invoiced fees
contained therein are equal to: (x) traffic acquisition costs (equal to bidding price per click-through multiplied by users’ click-throughs),
minus, (y) rebates from media partners as agreed, and the invoice fees are then recognized as cost of revenue. We then issue invoices
to our advertising customers and charge our advertising customers, with the amount equal to: (x) the traffic acquisition costs, plus,
(y) service charge, and the total amount is recognized as revenue.
Under the CPT model, the transaction price we
charge our advertiser customers for placing advertisement for a specific period of time is contractually agreed by our advertiser customers
and us. We recognize revenue over the period of the contract by reference to the progress, which is measured by the duration for displaying
the advertisement, towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation, which is measured by the elapse of the displaying period.
We receive invoices from media partners equivalent to traffic acquisition costs (equal to the predetermined CPT by the media platforms,
multiplied by the duration of display) minus rebates from media partners as agreed, and recognize as cost of revenue.
(l) Cost of revenue
The Company’s cost of revenue consists
primarily of the purchase of online traffic from third-party media platforms after deducting rebates, and salaries and benefits for staff
providing marketing solutions including content production, data analysis and advertising campaign optimizations.
(m) Research and development expenses
Research and development expenses include costs
directly attributable to the conduct of research and development projects, primarily consist of salaries and other employee benefits.
All costs associated with research and development are expensed as incurred.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(cont.)
(n) Advertising Expense
Advertising expenses primarily consist of cost
of online advertising. The Company’s advertising expenses are expensed as incurred and are included as part of selling expenses.
For the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded no advertising expenses.
(o) Financial expenses
Financial expenses include interest expenses
on short-term loans, operating lease interest expenses and guarantee expenses incurred for acquiring the short-term loans.
(p) Mainland China Employee Contribution Plan
As stipulated by the regulations of the PRC,
full-time employees of the Company are entitled to various government statutory employee benefit plans, including medical insurance,
maternity insurance, workplace injury insurance, unemployment insurance and pension benefits through a PRC government-mandated multi-employer
defined contribution plan. The Company is required to make contributions to the plan based on certain percentages of employees’
salaries. The total expenses the Company incurred for the plan were $244,206 and $39,048 for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and
2022, respectively.
(q) Income taxes
The Company’s subsidiaries in mainland
China and Hong Kong are subject to the income tax laws of mainland China and Hong Kong. No taxable income was generated outside the PRC
for six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. ASC
740 requires an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes and allows recognition and measurement
of deferred tax assets based upon the likelihood of realization of tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach,
deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for
financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets
if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or future deductibility
is uncertain.
ASC 740-10-25 prescribes a more-likely-than-not
threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. It also
provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification accounting for interest and penalties associated
with tax positions, years open for tax examination, accounting for income taxes in interim periods and income tax disclosures. There
were no material uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.
(r) Value added tax (“VAT”)
Sales revenue is the invoiced value of goods,
net of VAT. The VAT is based on gross sales price and VAT rate is approximately 6%. The VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company
on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing or acquiring its finished products. The Company recorded a VAT
payable or receivable net of payments in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements. All of the VAT returns filed by
the Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC, have been and remain subject to examination by the tax authorities for five years from the
date of filing.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(cont.)
(s) Earnings per share
The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”)
in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“ASC 260”). ASC 260 requires companies with complex capital
structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income divided by the weighted average ordinary shares outstanding
for the period. Diluted EPS takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue ordinary
shares were exercised and converted into ordinary shares. As of December 31,2023 and 2022, there were no dilutive securities.
(t) Comprehensive income
Comprehensive income consists of two components,
net income and other comprehensive income(loss). Other comprehensive income(loss) refers to revenue, expenses, gains, and losses that
under U.S. GAAP are recorded as an element of stockholders’ equity but are excluded from net income. Other comprehensive income(loss)
consists of foreign currency translation adjustment from the Company not using U.S. dollar as its functional currency.
(u) Foreign currency translation and transactions
The Company’s principal country of operations
is the PRC. The financial position and results of its operations are determined using RMB, the local currency, as the functional currency.
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are reported using the U.S. Dollars (“US$” or “$”). The
results of operations and the consolidated statements of cash flows denominated in foreign currency are translated at the average rate
of exchange during the reporting period. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated
at the applicable rates of exchange in effect at that date. The equity denominated in the functional currency is translated at the historical
rate of exchange at the time of capital contribution. Because cash flows are translated based on the average translation rate, amounts
related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the
corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from
period to period are included as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) included in consolidated statements
of changes in shareholders’ equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in the Company’s Consolidated
Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.
The value of RMB against US$ and other currencies
may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in the PRC’s political and economic conditions. Any significant revaluation
of RMB may materially affect the Company’s financial condition in terms of US$ reporting. The following table outlines the currency
exchange rates that were used in preparing the CFS:

(v) Segment reporting
ASC 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes
standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organizational structure
as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in financial statements for details on the Company’s
business segments.
The Company uses the management approach to determine
reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s
chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) for making decisions, allocating resources and assessing performance. The Company’s
CODM has been identified as the CEO, who reviews consolidated results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing
performance of the Company.
Based on the management’s assessment, the
Company determined that it has only one operating segment and therefore one reportable segment as defined by ASC 280. The Company’s
assets are substantially all located in the PRC and substantially all of the Company’s revenue and expense are derived in the PRC.
Therefore, no geographical segments are presented.
(w) Statements of cash flows
In accordance with ASC 230, Statement of Cash
Flows, cash flows from the Company’s operations are formulated based upon the local currencies using the average exchange rate
in the period. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree
with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(cont.)
(aa) Significant risks
Currency risk
A majority of the Company’s expense transactions
are denominated in RMB and a significant portion of the Company and its subsidiaries’ assets and liabilities are denominated in
RMB. RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. In the PRC, certain foreign exchange transactions are required by law to
be transacted only by authorized financial institutions at exchange rates set by the People’s Bank of China. Remittances in currencies
other than RMB by the Company in China must be processed through the PBOC or other Company foreign exchange regulatory bodies which require
certain supporting documentation in order to affect the remittances.
The Company maintains certain bank accounts in
the PRC. On May 1, 2015, China’s new Deposit Insurance Regulation came into effect, pursuant to which banking financial institutions,
such as commercial banks, established in the PRC are required to purchase deposit insurance for deposits in RMB and in foreign currency
placed with them. Such Deposit Insurance Regulation would not be effective in providing complete protection for the Company’s accounts,
as its aggregate deposits are much higher than the compensation limit, which is RMB500,000 for one bank (approximately $70,000). However,
the Company believes the risk of failure of any of these Chinese banks is remote. Bank failure is uncommon in the PRC and the Company
believes that those Chinese banks that hold the Company’s cash, restricted cash and short-term investments are financially sound
based on public available information.
Other than the deposit insurance mechanism in
the PRC mentioned above, the Company’s bank accounts are not insured by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance or other
insurance.
Concentration and credit risk
Currently, all of the Company’s operations
are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced
by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC’s economy. The Company’s
operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in U.S. The
Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary
measures, currency conversion and remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.
Financial instruments which potentially subject
the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts receivable –
related parties, advances to suppliers and amounts due from related parties. A portion of the Company’s sales are credit sales
which are to the customers whose ability to pay is dependent upon the industry economics prevailing in these areas; however, concentrations
of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivables is limited due to generally short payment terms. The Company also performs
ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to help further reduce credit risk.
Interest rate risk
Fluctuations in market interest rates may negatively
affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company is exposed to floating interest rate risk on cash
deposit and floating rate borrowings, and the risks due to changes in interest rates is not material. The Company has not used any derivative
financial instruments to manage the Company’s interest risk exposure.
Other uncertainty risk
The Company’s major operations are conducted
in the PRC. Accordingly, the political, economic, and legal environments in the PRC, as well as the general state of the PRC’s
economy may influence the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The Company’s major operations in the PRC
are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in U.S. These include risks associated
with, among others, the political, economic, and legal environment. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes
in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, and rates and methods of taxation, among other
things. Although the Company has not experienced losses from these situations and believes that it is in compliance with existing laws
and regulations including its organization and structure disclosed in Note 1, this may not be indicative of future results.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
(bb) Related parties
A party is considered related to the Company
if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with
the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal
owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly
influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from
fully pursuing its own separate interests. A party which can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting
parties or if it has an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that
one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests is also a related party.
(cc) Recent accounting pronouncements
The Company considers the applicability and impact
of all accounting standards updates (“ASUs”). Management periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued. As
an “emerging growth company,” or EGC, the Company has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period provided
in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards applicable to private companies. The
amendments in this ASU and its subsequent amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, including
interim periods beginning after December 15, 2022. While the Company continues to evaluate certain aspects of the new standard, it does
not expect the new standard to have a material effect on its financial statements and the Company does not expect a significant change
in its leasing activities between now and adoption.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (“FASB”) issued ASU2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). The amendments in this ASU require a
financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected.
The amendments broaden the information that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured
either collectively or individually. The use of forecasted information incorporates more timely information in the estimate of expected
credit loss, which will be more decision useful to users of the financial statements. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods
beginning after December 15, 2019 for issuers and December 15, 2020 for non-issuers. Early adoption is permitted for all entities for
annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments—Credit
Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief. This ASU adds optional transition relief for entities to elect the fair value option
for certain financial assets previously measured at amortized cost basis to increase comparability of similar financial assets. The ASUs
should be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which
the guidance is effective (that is, a modified retrospective approach). On November 19, 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10 to amend the
effective date for ASU 2016-13 to be fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods therein. The Company adopted
this ASU on July1, 2023 and found that the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s CFS.
In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-10,
“Codification Improvements.” The amendments in this ASU represent changes to clarify the Codification or correct unintended
application of guidance that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative
cost to most entities. The amendments in this ASU affect a wide variety of Topics in the Codification and apply to all reporting entities
within the scope of the affected accounting guidance. ASU 2020-10 is effective for annual periods beginning after July 1, 2021 for public
business entities. Early application is permitted. The amendments in this ASU should be applied retrospectively. The Company adopted
this ASU as of July 1, 2022 and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s CFS.
In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, Leases
(Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements, which Offers private companies, as well as notfor-profit entities that are not conduit bond
obligors, a practical expedient that gives them the option of using the written terms and conditions of a common-control arrangement
when determining whether a lease exists and the subsequent accounting for the lease, including the lease’s classification and Amends
the accounting for leasehold improvements in common-control arrangements for all entities. The Company continues to evaluate the impact
of ASU 2023-01 on its CFS.
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 CFS.

NOTE 11 – SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Ordinary shares
On August 5, 2022, Haoxi’s shareholders
approved an Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, pursuant to which 150,000,000 shares were authorized as Class
A ordinary shares and 50,000,000 shares were authorized as Class B ordinary shares with a nominal or par value of $0.0001 per share (each
is hereinafter referred to as “Class A Ordinary Shares” and “Class B Ordinary Shares”). Class A Ordinary Shares
are entitled to one vote per share and Class B Ordinary Shares are entitled to 10 votes per share. Haoxi issued 17,270,000 Class B Ordinary
Shares to Mr. Fan Zhen and 7,730,000 Class A Ordinary Shares to Mr. Lei Xu and four other shareholders on August 5, 2022. On November

Statuary Reserve
In accordance with the Regulations on Enterprises
of PRC, WFOE and Haoxi BJ in the PRC are required to provide for statutory reserves, which are appropriated from net profit as reported
in the Company’s PRC statutory accounts. They are required to allocate 10% of their after-tax profits to fund statutory reserves
until such reserves have reached 50% of their respective registered capital. These reserve funds, however, may not be distributed as
cash dividends. As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the statutory reserves of WFOE and Haoxi BJ have not accumulated retained
earnings and, thus, are not required to appropriate statutory reserves. As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the balances of the
statutory reserves were nil and nil, respectively.
Restricted net assets
The Company’s ability to pay dividends
is primarily dependent on the Company receiving distributions of funds from its subsidiaries. Relevant PRC statutory laws and regulations
permit payments of dividends by Haoxi BJ, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. The results
of operations reflected in the CFS prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP differ from those reflected in the statutory financial statements
of the Company’s subsidiaries.
Foreign exchange and other regulations in the
PRC may further restrict the Company’s subsidiaries from transferring funds to the Company in the form of dividends, loans and
advances. Amounts restricted include paid-in capital and statutory reserves of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries as determined pursuant
to PRC generally accepted accounting principles. As of December 31, 2023, and June 30, 2023, restricted net assets of the Company’s
PRC subsidiaries were $27,778 and $27,778, respectively.

evaluation, valuation allowance of $142,115 was recorded against the gross deferred tax asset balance as of June 30, 2023. The amount
of the deferred tax asset is considered realizable because it is more likely than not that the Company not generate sufficient future
taxable income to utilize this portion of the net operating loss.
The tax payable consisted of the following:

NOTE 14 – CONTINGENCIES
Contingencies
The Company may be involved in various legal
proceedings, claims and other disputes arising from the commercial operations, projects, employees and other matters which, in general,
are subject to uncertainties and in which the outcomes are not predictable. The Company determines whether an estimated loss from a contingency
should be accrued by assessing whether a loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. Although the outcomes of these legal
proceedings cannot be predicted, the Company does not believe these actions, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse impact on
its financial position, results of operations or liquidity. As of December 31,2023, the Company was not aware of any litigation or lawsuit
against it.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization
declared COVID-19 a pandemic—the first pandemic caused by a coronavirus. The pandemic has reached almost every country, resulting
in the implementation of significant governmental measures, including lockdowns, closures, quarantines, and travel bans, intended to
control the spread of the virus. The Chinese government has ordered quarantines, travel restrictions, and the temporary closure of stores
and facilities from early 2020 through the end of 2022. Companies are also taking precautions, such as requiring employees to work remotely,
imposing travel restrictions and temporarily closing businesses.
During the six months ended December 31, 2023
and 2022, the COVID-19 pandemic had limited impact on the Company’s operations. There are still uncertainties of the pandemic’s
future impact, and the extent of the impact will depend on a number of factors, including the duration and severity of the pandemic,
and the macroeconomic impact of government measures to contain the spread of COVID-19 and related government stimulus measures.

PART II
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED
IN PROSPECTUS
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION
OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Cayman Islands law does
not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum and articles of association may provide for indemnification of directors and
officers, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such as to
provide indemnification against the consequences of committing a crime, or against the indemnified person’s own fraud or dishonesty.
Our articles of association
provide that we will indemnify every director, secretary, assistant secretary, or other officer for the time being and from time to time
of our Company (but not including our auditors) and the personal representatives of the same and from: (a) all actions, proceedings,
costs, charges, expenses, losses, damages, or liabilities incurred or sustained by such person, other than by reason of such person’s
own dishonesty, willful default, or fraud, in or about the conduct of our business or affairs or in the execution or discharge of that
person’s duties, powers, authorities, or discretions; and (b) without limitation to paragraph (a) above, all costs, expenses, losses,
or liabilities incurred by such person in defending (whether successfully or otherwise) any civil proceedings concerning us or our affairs
in any court, whether in the Cayman Islands or elsewhere.
Pursuant to indemnification
agreements, the form of which will be filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this registration statement, we will agree to indemnify our directors
and officers against certain liabilities and expenses incurred by such persons in connection with claims made by reason of their being
such a director or officer.
The Underwriting Agreement,
the form of which will be filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this registration statement, will also provide for indemnification of us and our officers
and directors.
Insofar as indemnification
for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and is therefore unenforceable.
ITEM 7. RECENT SALES
OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.
During the past three years,
we have issued the following securities which were not registered under the Securities Act. We believe that each of the following issuance
was exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act regarding sales by an issuer
in offshore transactions. No underwriters were involved in these issuances of securities.
On August 5, 2022, we issued
7,730,000 Class A Shares to Lei Xu, Hongli Wu, Tao Zhao, and Wenpu Sun for $773 and 17,270,000 Class B Share to Zhen Fan for $1,727.
On May 8, 2023, the register of members of the Company was updated to reflect that the 7,730,000 Class A Shares issued and outstanding
are Class A Ordinary Shares and the 17,270,000 Class B Shares issued and outstanding are Class B Ordinary Shares.
On November 28, 2022, we
issued another 4,480,000 Class A Shares to Hongli Wu for $2,000,000. On May 8, 2023, the register of members of the Company was updated
to reflect that the additional 4,480,000 Class A Shares issued to Hongli Wu are Class A Ordinary Shares.
ITEM 8. EXHIBITS
AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULES.
(a) Exhibits
See Exhibit Index beginning
on page II-5 of this registration statement.
(b) Financial Statement
Schedules
Schedules have been omitted
because the information required to be set forth therein is not applicable or is shown in the Consolidated Financial Statements or the
Notes thereto.
ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.
The undersigned registrant
hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement, certificates in such denominations
and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each 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 the provisions described in Item 6, 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 the 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 under 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.
(3)
For the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, 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.
(4)
For the purpose of determining any liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution
of the 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.

Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form

FORM
OF SERIES A WARRANT
Haoxi
Health Technology Limited
Series
A Warrant To Purchase Common Shares
Warrant
No.: _________
Number
of Common Shares: _____________
Date
of Issuance: [___], 2024 (“Issuance Date”)
Haoxi
Health Technology Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, [HOLDER],
the registered holder hereof or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth
below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect, at any time or times on or after the date
hereof, but not after 11:59 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration Date, ______________ (_____________) fully paid nonassessable Common
Shares, subject to adjustment as provided herein (the “Warrant Shares”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized
terms in this Warrant to Purchase Common Shares (including any Warrants to Purchase Common Shares issued in exchange, transfer or replacement
hereof, this “Warrant”), shall have the meanings set forth in Section 17. This Warrant is one of the Series A Warrants
to purchase Common Shares (the “Series A Warrants”) issued pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement dated [●],
2024 (the “Subscription Date”), by and between the Company and the Underwriter. Capitalized terms used herein and
not otherwise defined shall have the definitions ascribed to such terms in the Underwriting Agreement. This Warrant shall initially be
issued and maintained in the form of a security held in book-entry form and the Depository Trust Company or its nominee (“DTC”)
shall initially be the sole registered holder of this Warrant, subject to a Holder’s right to elect to receive a Warrant in certificated
form pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agent Agreement, in which case this sentence shall not apply.
1.
EXERCISE OF WARRANT.
(a)
Mechanics of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including, without limitation, the limitations set forth in
Section 1(f)), this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, in whole or in part, by
(i) delivery of a written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), of the
Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant and (ii) (A) payment to the Company of an amount equal to the applicable Exercise Price
multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”)
in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds or (B) if the provisions of Section 1(d) are applicable, by notifying the Company
that this Warrant is being exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 1(d)). The Holder shall not be required to
deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice with respect to
less than all of the Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant
evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares. On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following
the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice, the Company shall transmit by electronic mail an acknowledgment of confirmation
of receipt of the Exercise Notice to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). On
or before the earlier of (i) the second (2nd) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement
Period, in each case, following the date on which the Holder delivers the Exercise Notice to the Company, so long as the Holder delivers
the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) on or prior to the Trading Day following the date on which the Company
has received the Exercise Notice (the “Share Delivery Date”) (provided that if the Aggregate Exercise Price has not
been delivered by such date, the Share Delivery Date shall be one (1) Trading Day after the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a
Cashless Exercise) is delivered), the Company shall (X) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company
(“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program and (A) the Warrant Shares are subject to an effective registration
statement in favor of the Holder or (B) if exercised via Cashless Exercise, at a time when Rule 144 would be available for resale of
the Warrant Shares by the Holder, credit such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise
to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit / Withdrawal At Custodian system, or (Y) if
the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program or (A) the Warrant Shares are not subject
to an effective registration statement in favor of the Holder and (B) if exercised via Cashless Exercise, at a time when Rule 144 would
not be available for resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, deliver to the Holder, book entry statements evidencing the Warrant
Shares, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with
respect to any Notice(s) of Exercise delivered on or prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Trading Day prior to the Issuance
Date, which may be delivered at any time after the time of execution of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company agrees to deliver the
Warrant Shares subject to such notice(s) by 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Issuance Date and the Issuance Date shall be the Warrant
Share Delivery Date for purposes hereunder, provided that payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless
exercise) is received by the Warrant Share Delivery Date. The Company shall be responsible for all fees and expenses of the Transfer
Agent and all fees and expenses with respect to the issuance of Warrant Shares via DTC, if any. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice,
the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which
this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the date
of delivery of the book entry statements evidencing such Warrant Shares, as the case may be. If this Warrant is submitted in connection
with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1(a) and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is
greater than the number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon an exercise, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event
later than three (3) Trading Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing
the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares issuable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of
Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised. No fractional Warrant Shares are to be issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant, but rather the number of Warrant Shares to be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. The Company shall pay
any and all taxes which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant. The
Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions hereof are
absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect
to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim,
recoupment, limitation or termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 1(a), a holder whose interest in this Warrant is
a beneficial interest in certificate(s) representing this Warrant held in book-entry form through DTC (or another established clearing
corporation performing similar functions), shall effect exercises made pursuant to this Section 1(a) by delivering to DTC (or such other
clearing corporation, as applicable) the appropriate instruction form for exercise, complying with the procedures to effect exercise
that are required by DTC (or such other clearing corporation, as applicable), subject to a Holder’s right to elect to receive a
Warrant in certificated form pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agent Agreement, in which case this sentence shall not apply. For purposes
of Regulation SHO, a holder whose interest in this Warrant is a beneficial interest in certificate(s) representing this Warrant held
in book-entry form through DTC (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) shall be deemed to have exercised
its interest in this Warrant upon instructing its broker that is a DTC Participant to exercise its interest in such Warrant, provided
that in each such case payment of the applicable Aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received
within the earlier of (i) one (1) trading day and (ii) the number of trading days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, in each
case following such instruction.
(b)
Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means $[ ] per share, subject to adjustment
as provided herein.
(c)
Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities. If the Company shall fail to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the
Holder on or prior to the Share Delivery Date, Warrant Shares pursuant to an exercise notice delivered by the Holder and if after such
date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm
otherwise purchases, Common Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated
receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within three (3) Trading Days after the Holder’s
request (a) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions,
if any) for the Common Shares so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company
was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise
to such purchase obligation was executed, and (b) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent
number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to
the Holder the number of Common Shares that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations
hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Shares having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect
to an attempted exercise of Common Shares with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause
(a) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company
written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing
herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without
limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver Common
Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
(d)
Cashless Exercise. If at the time of exercise hereof there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus
contained therein is not available for the issuance of the Warrant Shares to the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in
whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive the “Net
Number” of Common Shares determined according to the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):
Net
Number = (A x B) - (A x C)
B
For
purposes of the foregoing formula:
A= |
the
total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised. |
B= |
as
applicable: (i) the Weighted Average Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable
Exercise Notice if such Exercise Notice is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a day that is not a
Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular
trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading
Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder, either (y) the Weighted Average Price on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of
the applicable Exercise Notice or (z) the bid price of the Common Shares on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg
as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Exercise Notice, if such Exercise Notice is executed during “regular
trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close
of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof or (iii) the Weighted Average Price of the
Common Shares on the date of the applicable Exercise Notice if the date of such Exercise Notice is a Trading Day and such Exercise
Notice is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such
Trading Day; |
C= |
the
Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise. |
If
Common Shares are issued pursuant to this Section 1(d), the Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9)
of the 1933 Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the registered characteristics of the Warrants being exercised. The Company agrees
not to take any position contrary to this Section 1(d).
(e)
Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant
Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in
accordance with Section 12.
(f)
Beneficial Ownership Limitations on Exercises. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not
effect the exercise of any portion of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant,
pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Warrant and any such exercise shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the
extent that after giving effect to such exercise, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially
own in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving
effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of Common Shares beneficially owned by the Holder
and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of Common Shares held by the Holder and all other Attribution Parties plus
the number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being
made, but shall exclude the number of Common Shares which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of
this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Parties and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised
or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred
stock or warrants, including the Series B Warrants) and Pre-funded Warrants beneficially owned by the Holder or any other Attribution
Party subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 1(f). For purposes of this
Section 1(f), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the “1934 Act”). For purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding Common Shares the Holder
may acquire upon the exercise of this Warrant without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding
Common Shares as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F, Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form
6-K or other public filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as the case may be, (y) a more
recent public announcement by the Company or (3) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number
of Common Shares outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives an Exercise Notice
from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding Common Shares is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the
Company shall (i) notify the Holder in writing of the number of Common Shares then outstanding and, to the extent that such Exercise
Notice would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 1(f), to exceed the Maximum
Percentage, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of Warrant Shares to be purchased pursuant to such Exercise Notice
(the number of shares by which such purchase is reduced, the “Reduction Shares”) and (ii) as soon as reasonably practicable,
the Company shall return to the Holder any exercise price paid by the Holder for the Reduction Shares. For any reason at any time, upon
the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Trading Day confirm orally and in writing or by electronic
mail to the Holder the number of Common Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding Common Shares shall be determined
after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder and any other Attribution
Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of Common Shares
to the Holder upon exercise of this Warrant results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own,
in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding Common Shares (as determined under Section 13(d) of the
1934 Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership
exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio,
and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. As soon as reasonably practicable after the issuance
of the Excess Shares has been deemed null and void, the Company shall return to the Holder the exercise price paid by the Holder for
the Excess Shares. For purposes of clarity, the Common Shares issuable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant in excess of the Maximum
Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule
16a-1(a)(1) of the 1934 Act. No prior inability to exercise this Warrant pursuant to this
paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination
of exercisability. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity
with the terms of this Section 1(f) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph or any portion of this paragraph which may be defective
or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 1(f) or to make changes or supplements necessary
or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply
to a successor holder of this Warrant.
(g) Insufficient Authorized
Shares. If at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved
Common Shares to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant at least a number of Common Shares equal
to 100% of the number of Common Shares as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise of all of this Warrant then outstanding
without regard to any limitation on exercise included herein and assuming that the shares underlying this Warrant are adjusted based
on an Reference Price (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, reorganizations, reclassification, combinations,
reverse stock splits, or other similar events occurring after the Subscription Date) (the “Required Reserve Amount”
and the failure to have such sufficient number of authorized and unreserved Common Shares, an “Authorized Share Failure”),
then the Company shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized Common Shares to an amount sufficient
to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for this Warrant then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than
sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of its shareholders for the approval
of an increase in the number of authorized Common Shares. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each shareholder
with a proxy statement and shall use its best efforts to solicit its shareholders’ approval of such increase in authorized Common
Shares and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the shareholders that they approve such proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if any such time of an Authorized Share Failure, the Company is able to obtain the approval of holders of a majority of the Common Shares
voting at a general meeting to approve the increase in the number of authorized Common Shares, the Company may satisfy this obligation
by obtaining such approval. In the event that upon any exercise of this Warrant, the Company does not have sufficient authorized shares
to deliver in satisfaction of such exercise, then unless the Holder elects to void such attempted exercise, the Holder may require the
Company to pay to the Holder within three (3) Trading Days of the applicable exercise, cash in an amount equal to the product of (i)
the quotient determined by dividing (x) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company is unable to deliver pursuant to this Section 1(g),
by (y) the total number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations or restrictions on
exercise of this Warrant) and (ii) the Black Scholes Value; provided, that (x) references to “the day immediately following the
public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction” in the definition of “Black Scholes Value” shall instead
refer to “the date the Holder exercises this Warrant and the Company cannot deliver the required number of Warrant Shares because
of an Authorized Share Failure” and (y) clause (iii) of the definition of “Black Scholes Value” shall instead refer
to “the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the highest Weighted Average Price during the period beginning
on the date of the applicable date of exercise and the date that the Company makes the applicable cash payment.”
(h)
Conversion of Warrant. If, at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding, (i) the Company shall receive a written notice
from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, indicating that the Company is not in compliance with the minimum equity standard requirement for continued
listing set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) or (ii) on the Trading Day prior to the last day of any of the Company’s fiscal
reporting periods, the Company determines in good faith and after consultation with its independent auditors that the Company will not
be in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), then without the need for further consent or action by the Holder or the Company,
in the event of the occurrence of clause (i), the Company or the Holder and in the event of the occurrence of clause (ii), solely the
Company, may elect to convert all or pro rata a part of, the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant into Common Shares, at a ratio
of 1 to 1, such that each outstanding Warrant shall be converted into one Ordinary Share (the “Conversion”), provided
however, that if, after giving effect to the Conversion, the Holder’s beneficial ownership of Common Shares shall exceed the Maximum
Percentage, the Holder shall be issued with Pre-Funded Warrants, in lieu of Common Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, following the
Conversion of this Warrant in whole or in part, the converted portion of this Warrant shall be deemed exercised and be cancelled and
be of no further effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Conversion election by the Company shall be permitted
only to the minimum extent the Company in good faith, after consultation with its counsel and auditor, determines necessary for the Company
to remain in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1).
2.
ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted
from time to time as follows:
(a)
Adjustment Upon Issuance of Common Shares. If and whenever on or after the Subscription Date, the Company issues or sells, or
in accordance with this Section 2 is deemed to have issued or sold, any Common Shares (including the issuance or sale of Common Shares
owned or held by or for the account of the Company, but excluding Common Shares deemed to have been issued or sold by the Company in
connection with any Excluded Securities) for a consideration per share (the “New Issuance Price”) less than a price
(the “Applicable Price”) equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale or deemed issuance
or sale (the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”), then immediately after and subject to the consummation of such Dilutive
Issuance, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the New Issuance Price. For the avoidance of doubt,
for the purposes of this Section 2(a), pre-funded warrants to purchase Common Shares shall be treated as Common Shares. For purposes
of determining the adjusted Exercise Price under this Section 2(a), the following shall be applicable:
(i)
Issuance of Options. If the Company in any manner grants or sells any Options and the lowest price per share for which one Ordinary
Share is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable
upon exercise of any such Option is less than the Applicable Price, then such Ordinary Share shall be deemed to be outstanding and to
have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting or sale of such Option for such price per share. For purposes of
this Section 2(a)(i), the “lowest price per share for which one Ordinary Share is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option
or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option” shall be equal
to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one Ordinary Share
upon the granting or sale of the Option, upon exercise of the Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security
issuable upon exercise of such Option less any consideration paid or payable by the Company with respect to such one Ordinary Share upon
the granting or sale of such Option, upon exercise of such Option and upon conversion exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security
issuable upon exercise of such Option. No further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Common
Shares or of such Convertible Securities upon the exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of such Common Shares upon conversion,
exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
(ii)
Issuance of Convertible Securities. If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the lowest price
per share for which one Ordinary Share is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof is less than the Applicable Price,
then such Ordinary Share shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance
or sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per share. For the purposes of this Section 2(a)(ii), the “lowest price per
share for which one Ordinary Share is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof” shall be equal to the sum of
the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one Ordinary Share upon the issuance
or sale of the Convertible Security and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security less any consideration paid
or payable by the Company with respect to such one Ordinary Share upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Security and upon conversion,
exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security. No further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance
of such Common Shares upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities, and if any such issue or sale of such Convertible
Securities is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustment of this Warrant has been or is to be made pursuant to other provisions
of this Section 2(a), no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.
(iii)
Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. If the purchase price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration,
if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible
Securities are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares increases or decreases at any time, the Exercise Price
in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Exercise Price, which would have been in effect at such time
had such Options or Convertible Securities provided for such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased
or decreased conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 2(a)(iii),
if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the Subscription Date are increased or decreased in the
manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the Common Shares deemed issuable
upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment
pursuant to this Section 2(a) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Exercise Price then in effect.
(iv)
Calculation of Consideration Received. In case any Option is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other securities of
the Company, together comprising one integrated transaction, (x) the Options will be deemed to have been issued for twelve and a half
cents ($0.125) per Option (the “Option Value”) and (y) the other securities issued or sold in such integrated transaction
shall be deemed to have been issued or sold for the difference of (I) the aggregate consideration received by the Company less any consideration
paid or payable by the Company pursuant to the terms of such other securities of the Company, less (II) the Option Value of such Options.
If any Common Shares, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration
other than cash received therefor will be deemed to be the net amount received by the Company therefor. If any Common Shares, Options
or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company
will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of publicly traded securities, in which case the
amount of consideration received by the Company will be the Closing Sale Price of such publicly traded securities on the date of receipt
of such publicly traded securities. If any Common Shares, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving
entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed
to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such Common Shares,
Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be. The fair value of any consideration other than cash or publicly traded securities
will be determined jointly by the Company and the Required Holders. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days
after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair value of such consideration
will be determined within five (5) Business Days after the tenth (10th) day following the Valuation Event by an independent,
reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Required Holders. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and
binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, if a calculation pursuant to this Section 2(a)(iv) would result in an Exercise Price that
is lower than the par value of the Common Shares, then the Exercise Price shall be deemed to equal the par value of the Common Shares.
(v)
Record Date. If the Company takes a record of the holders of Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a
dividend or other distribution payable in Common Shares, Options or in Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase Common
Shares, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the Common Shares
deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the
granting of such right of subscription or purchase, as the case may be.
(vi)
No Readjustment. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that following the consummation of a Dilutive Issuance and the Exercise
Price has been adjusted pursuant to this Section 2(a) and the Dilutive Issuance that triggered such adjustment is unwound, cancelled
or expires after the fact for any reason, the Exercise Price will not be readjusted to the Exercise Price that would have been in effect
if such Dilutive Issuance had not occurred or been consummated.
(b)
Voluntary Adjustment By Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the primary Trading Market, the Company may at any time
during the term of this Warrant, with the prior written consent of the Required Holders, reduce the then current Exercise Price to any
amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company.
(c)
Adjustment Upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Shares. If the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date subdivides
(by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding Common Shares into a greater
number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of
Warrant Shares will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date combines (by combination,
reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately
decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 2(c) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination
becomes effective.
(d)
Adjustment Upon Series B Warrants Exercise Date. On the Series B Exercise Date (as such term is defined in the Series B Warrants)
the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to equal the Reference Price. Upon such adjustments of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section
2(d), the number of Warrant Shares issuable immediately prior to such adjustment shall be adjusted to the number of Common Shares determined
by multiplying the Exercise Price then in effect at issuance by the number of Warrant Shares acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant
immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.
(e)
Share Combination Event Adjustment. In addition to the adjustments set forth in this Section 2, if at any time on or after the
Issuance Date there occurs any share split, reverse share split, share dividend, share combination recapitalization or other similar
transaction involving the Common Shares (each, a “Share Combination Event”, and such date on which the Share Combination
Event is effected, the “Share Combination Event Date”) and the lowest Weighted Average Price of the Common Shares
during the period commencing on the Trading Day immediately following the applicable Share Combination Event Date and ending on the fifth
(5th) Trading Day immediately following the applicable Share Combination Event Date (such period the “Share Combination
Adjustment Period” and such price the “Event Market Price”) (provided if the Share Combination Event is
effective prior to the opening of trading on the Principal Market (or if the Common Shares no longer trade on the Principal Market, on
the primary Eligible Market on which the Common Shares then trade), is less than the Exercise Price then in effect (after giving effect
to the adjustment in clause 2(c) above, then, at the close of trading on the Principal Market (or if the Common Shares no longer trade
on the Principal Market, on the primary Eligible Market on which the Common Shares then trade) on the last day of the Share Combination
Adjustment Period, the Exercise Price then in effect on such 5th Trading Day shall be reduced (but in no event increased)
to the Event Market Price
For
the avoidance of doubt, if the adjustment in this Section 2(e) would otherwise result in an increase in the Exercise Price hereunder,
no adjustment shall be made, and if this Warrant is exercised, on any date on which the Holder delivers an Exercise Notice to the Company
(an “Exercise Date”) during the Share Combination Adjustment Period, solely with respect to such portion of this Warrant
exercised on such applicable Exercise Date, such applicable Share Combination Adjustment Period shall be deemed to have ended on, and
include, the Trading Day immediately prior to such Exercise Date and the Event Market Price on such applicable Exercise Date will be
the lowest VWAP of the Common Shares immediately prior to the Share Combination Event Date and ending on, and including the Trading Day
immediately prior to such Exercise Date.
(f)
Other Events. If any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 2 but not expressly provided for
by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with
equity features), then the Company’s Board of Directors will make an appropriate adjustment in the Exercise Price and the number
of Warrant Shares, as mutually determined by the Company’s Board of Directors and the Required Holders, so as to protect the rights
of the Holder; provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 2(f) will increase the Exercise Price or decrease the
number of Warrant Shares as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 2.
2.
RIGHTS UPON DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS. If the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or
rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Common Shares, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any
distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property, options, evidence of indebtedness or any other assets by way of a dividend,
spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”),
at any time after the issuance of this Warrant and while the Warrant is outstanding, then, in each such case, the Exercise Price shall
be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of shareholders
entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the Weighted Average Price determined as of the
record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such Weighted Average Price on such record date less the then per share
fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness or rights or warrants so distributed
applicable to one outstanding Ordinary Share as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In either case the adjustments shall
be described in a statement provided to the Holder of the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription
rights applicable to one Ordinary Share. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective
immediately after the record date mentioned above.
3.
PURCHASE RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS.
(a)
Purchase Rights. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells
any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders
of any class of Common Shares (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms
applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number
of Common Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise of
this Warrant, including without limitation, the Maximum Percentage) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant,
issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Shares are
to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s
right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage,
then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership
of such Common Shares as a result of such Purchase Right (and beneficial ownership) to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent
shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times as its right thereto would not result in the Holder
and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such right (and
any Purchase Right granted, issued or sold on such initial Purchase Right or on any subsequent Purchase Right held similarly in abeyance)
to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation).
(b)
Fundamental Transactions. The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless the Successor Entity
assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 4(b) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Required Holders, including
agreements, if so requested by the Holder, to deliver to each holder of the Series A Warrants in exchange for such Series A Warrants
a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant, including,
without limitation, an adjusted exercise price equal to the value for the Common Shares reflected by the terms of such Fundamental Transaction,
and exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock equivalent to the Common Shares acquirable and receivable upon
exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and
satisfactory to the Required Holders, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital
stock (but taking into account the relative value of the Common Shares pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such
shares of capital stock, such adjustments to the number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting
the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction). Any security
issuable or potentially issuable to the Holder pursuant to the terms of this Warrant on the consummation of a Fundamental Transaction
that was within the Company’s control to enter into or to avoid shall be registered and freely tradable by the Holder without any
restriction or limitation or the requirement to be subject to any holding period pursuant to any applicable securities laws. No
later than (i) thirty (30) days prior to the occurrence or consummation of any Fundamental Transaction or (ii) if later, the first Trading
Day following the date the Company first becomes aware of the occurrence or potential occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company
shall deliver written notice thereof via facsimile or electronic mail and overnight courier to the Holder. Upon the occurrence
or consummation of any Fundamental Transaction that was within the Company’s control to enter into or to avoid, it shall be a required
condition to the occurrence or consummation of any Fundamental Transaction that, the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities,
jointly and severally, shall succeed to, and the Company shall cause any Successor Entity or Successor Entities to jointly and severally
succeed to, and be added to the term “Company” under this Warrant (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction,
each and every provision of this Warrant referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor
Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally,
may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto
under this Warrant with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had
been named as the Company in this Warrant, and, solely at the request of the Holder, if the Successor Entity and/or Successor Entities
is a publicly traded corporation whose common stock is quoted on or listed for trading on an Eligible Market, shall deliver (in addition
to and without limiting any right under this Warrant) to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity and/or
Successor Entities evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant and exercisable for
a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of the Successor Entity and/or Successor Entities (the “Successor Capital
Stock”) equivalent to the Common Shares acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations
on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction (such corresponding number of shares of Successor Capital Stock
to be delivered to the Holder shall be equal to the greater of (A) the quotient of (i) the aggregate dollar value of all consideration
(including cash consideration and any consideration other than cash (“Non-Cash Consideration”), in such Fundamental
Transaction, as such values are set forth in any definitive agreement for the Fundamental Transaction that has been executed at the time
of the first public announcement of the Fundamental Transaction or, if no such value is determinable from such definitive agreement,
as determined in accordance with Section 12 with the term “Non-Cash Consideration” being substituted for the term “Exercise
Price”) that the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction or the record, eligibility
or other determination date for the event resulting in such Fundamental Transaction, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior
to such Fundamental Transaction or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Fundamental Transaction
(without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) (the “Aggregate Consideration”) divided by (ii)
the per share Closing Sale Price of such Successor Capital Stock on the Trading Day immediately prior to the consummation or occurrence
of the Fundamental Transaction and (B) the product of (i) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Aggregate Consideration, by (y) the
Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately prior to the consummation or occurrence of the Fundamental Transaction
and (ii) the highest exchange ratio pursuant to which any shareholder of the Company may exchange Common Shares for Successor Capital
Stock) (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to receive any such shares of publicly traded common
stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity would result in the Holder and its other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum
Percentage, if applicable, then the Holder shall not be entitled to receive such shares to such extent (and shall not be entitled to
beneficial ownership of such shares of publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity as a result of such
consideration to such extent) and the portion of such shares shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time or times, as its
right thereto would not result in the Holder and its other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times
the Holder shall be delivered such shares to the extent as if there had been no such limitation), and such security shall be satisfactory
to the Holder, and with an identical exercise price to the Exercise Price hereunder (such adjustments to the number of shares of capital
stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting after the consummation or occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction
the economic value of this Warrant that was in effect immediately prior to the consummation or occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction,
as elected by the Holder solely at its option). Upon occurrence or consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, and it shall be a required
condition to the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction that, the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities
shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the occurrence or
consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, as elected by the Holder solely at its option, Common Shares, Successor Capital Stock or,
in lieu of the Common Shares or Successor Capital Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property purchasable upon the exercise
of this Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction), such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever
(including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights), which for purposes of clarification may continue to be Common Shares,
if any, that the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction or the record, eligibility
or other determination date for the event resulting in such Fundamental Transaction, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior
to such Fundamental Transaction or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Fundamental Transaction
(without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. In
addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the occurrence or consummation of any Fundamental Transaction
pursuant to which holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive securities, cash, assets or other property with respect to or in exchange
for Common Shares (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that, and any applicable
Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall ensure that, and it shall be a required condition to the occurrence or consummation of such
Corporate Event that, the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the occurrence
or consummation of the Corporate Event, Common Shares or Successor Capital Stock or, if so elected by the Holder, in lieu of the Common
Shares (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to such Corporate Event
(but not in lieu of such items still issuable under Sections 3 and 4(a), which shall continue to be receivable on the Common Shares or
on the such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property otherwise receivable with respect to or in exchange for Common
Shares), such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription
rights and any Common Shares) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence or consummation of such Corporate
Event or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Corporate Event, had this Warrant been exercised
immediately prior to such Corporate Event or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Corporate
Event (without regard to any limitations on exercise of this Warrant). Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in
a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder. The provisions of this Section 4(b) shall apply similarly and equally to
successive Fundamental Transactions and Corporate Events.
(c)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of Fundamental Transaction, at the request of the Holder delivered before the ninetieth (90th)
day after the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, the Company (or the Successor Entity) shall purchase this Warrant
from the Holder by paying to the Holder, within five (5) Business Days after such request (or, if later, on the effective date of the
Fundamental Transaction), cash in an amount equal to the Black Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on
the date of such Fundamental Transaction; provided, however, that, if such Fundamental Transaction is not within the Company’s
control, including not approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, the Holder shall only be entitled to receive from the Company
or any Successor Entity, as of the date of consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, the same type or form of consideration (and
in the same proportion), at the Black Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of this Warrant, that is being offered and paid to the
holders of Common Shares of the Company in connection with such Fundamental Transaction, whether that consideration be in the form of
cash, stock or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of Common Shares are given the choice to receive from among alternative
forms of consideration in connection with such Fundamental Transaction; provided, further, that if that if holders of Common
Shares of the Company are not offered or paid any consideration in such Fundamental Transaction, such holders of Common Shares will be
deemed to have received Common Shares of the Successor Entity (which Successor Entity may be the Company following such Fundamental Transaction)
in such Fundamental Transaction.
4.
NON-CIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Amended and Restated
Articles of Association or Bylaws, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution,
issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms
of this Warrant, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may be required
to protect the rights of the Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par value
of any Common Shares receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) shall take all such actions
as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Common Shares
upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (iii) shall, so long as any of the Series A Warrants are outstanding, take all action necessary
to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Shares, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of the
Series A Warrants, 100% of the number of Common Shares as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise of the Series A
Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise).
5.
WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED A SHAREHOLDER. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Holder, solely in such Person’s
capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of share capital of
the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s
capacity as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent
to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or
otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of
the Warrant Shares which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained
in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant
or otherwise) or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.
Notwithstanding this Section 6, the Company shall provide the Holder with copies of the same notices and other information given to the
shareholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the shareholders.
6.
REISSUANCE OF WARRANTS.
(a)
Transfer of Warrant. If this Warrant is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company, whereupon the
Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)), registered as

Shares then underlying this Warrant.
(c)

name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the registered Holder of this
Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes,

if given to DTC (or any successor depository) pursuant to the procedures of DTC (or such successor depository).
8.

GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; JURY TRIAL. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with, and
all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Warrant shall be governed by, the internal
laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State
of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New
York. The Company hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New
York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated
hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that

forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. The Company hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process
and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to the Company and agrees that
such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to

obligations to the Holder, to realize on any collateral or any other security for such obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other
court ruling in favor of the Holder. THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY

10.
CONSTRUCTION; HEADINGS. This Warrant shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and all the Holders and shall not be
construed against any Person as the drafter hereof. The headings of this Warrant are for convenience of reference and shall not form

11.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the
Warrant Shares, the Company shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations via facsimile or electronic mail within
two (2) Business Days of receipt of the Exercise Notice giving rise to such dispute, as the case may be, to the Holder. If the Holder
and the Company are unable to agree upon such determination or calculation of the Exercise Price or the Warrant Shares within three (3)
Business Days of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to the Holder, then the Company shall, within
two (2) Business Days submit via facsimile or electronic mail (a) the disputed determination of the Exercise Price to an independent,
reputable investment bank selected by the Company and approved by the Holder or (b) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Warrant
Shares to the Company’s independent, outside accountant. The Company shall cause at its expense the investment bank or the accountant,
as the case may be, to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Company and the Holder of the results no later than
ten (10) Business Days from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment bank’s or accountant’s
determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error.
12.
REMEDIES, OTHER OBLIGATIONS, BREACHES AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in
addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree
of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of the Holder to pursue actual damages
for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations
hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore
agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, in addition to all other
available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other
security being required.
13.
TRANSFER. This Warrant and the Warrant Shares may be offered for sale, sold, transferred, pledged or assigned without the consent
of the Company.
14.
SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Warrant is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by
a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended
to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall
not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Warrant so long as this Warrant as so modified continues to express, without
material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability
of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or
the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith
negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as
close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).
15.
DISCLOSURE. Upon receipt or delivery by the Company of any notice in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, unless the Company
has in good faith determined that the matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the
Company or its subsidiaries, the Company shall contemporaneously with any such receipt or delivery publicly disclose such material, nonpublic
information on a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K or otherwise. In the event that the Company believes that a notice contains
material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries, the Company so shall indicate to the Holder contemporaneously
with delivery of such notice, and in the absence of any such indication, the Holder shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating
to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries.

FORM OF SERIES B WARRANT
HAOXI HEALTH TECHNOLOGY LIMITED
Series
B Warrant To Purchase Common Shares
Warrant No.: ______
Number of Common Shares: The Eligibility Number
Date of Issuance: [ ], 2024 (“Issuance Date”)
Haoxi Health Technology Limited,
a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, [HOLDER], the registered holder
hereof or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from
the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect, at any time or times on or after the sixteenth (16th) Trading Day
after the Issuance Date (the “Series B Exercise Date”) hereof, but not after 11:59 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration
Date (as defined below), up to the Eligibility Number (as defined below) of fully paid nonassessable Common Shares, subject to adjustment
as provided herein (the “Warrant Shares”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Warrant to
Purchase Common Shares (including any Warrants to Purchase Common Shares issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, this “Warrant”),
shall have the meanings set forth in Section 17. This Warrant is one of the Series B Warrants to purchase Common Shares (the “Series
B Warrants”) issued pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement by and between the Company and the Underwriter dated [_], 2024 (the
“Subscription Date”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the definitions ascribed to
such terms in the Underwriting Agreement. This Warrant shall initially be issued and maintained in the form of a security held in book-entry
form and the Depository Trust Company or its nominee (“DTC”) shall initially be the sole registered holder of this Warrant,
subject to a Holder’s right to elect to receive a Warrant in certificated form pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agent Agreement,
in which case this sentence shall not apply.
1. EXERCISE OF WARRANT.
(a) Mechanics of Exercise.
Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including, without limitation, the limitations set forth in Section 1(f)), this Warrant may
be exercised by the Holder at any time or times on or after the sixteenth (16th) trading day after the Issuance Date, in whole or in part,
by (i) delivery of a written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), of the
Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant and (ii) (A) payment to the Company of an amount equal to the applicable Exercise Price
multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”)
in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds or (B) by notifying the Company that this Warrant is being exercised pursuant
to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 1(d)). The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect
an exercise hereunder. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares shall have the
same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number
of Warrant Shares. On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise
Notice, the Company shall transmit by electronic mail an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Exercise Notice to the Holder
and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). On or before the earlier of (i) the second (2nd)
Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, in each case, following the date on which the
Holder delivers the Exercise Notice to the Company, so long as the Holder delivers the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless
Exercise) on or prior to the Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received the Exercise Notice (the “Share
Delivery Date”) (provided that if the Aggregate Exercise Price has not been delivered by such date, the Share Delivery Date
shall be one (1) Trading Day after the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) is delivered), the Company shall (X)
provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities
Transfer Program and (A) the Warrant Shares are subject to an effective registration statement in favor of the Holder or (B) if exercised
via Cashless Exercise, at a time when Rule 144 would be available for resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, credit such aggregate
number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance
account with DTC through its Deposit / Withdrawal At Custodian system, or (Y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast
Automated Securities Transfer Program or (A) the Warrant Shares are not subject to an effective registration statement in favor of the
Holder and (B) if exercised via Cashless Exercise, at a time when Rule 144 would not be available for resale of the Warrant Shares by
the Holder, deliver to the Holder, book entry statements evidencing the Warrant Shares, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the
Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Notice(s) of Exercise delivered on or
prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Trading Day prior to the Issuance Date, which may be delivered at any time after the time
of execution of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company agrees to deliver the Warrant Shares subject to such notice(s) by 12:00 p.m. (New
York City time) on the Issuance Date and the Issuance Date shall be the Warrant Share Delivery Date for purposes hereunder, provided that
payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received by the Warrant Share Delivery Date.
The Company shall be responsible for all fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent and all fees and expenses with respect to the issuance
of Warrant Shares via DTC, if any. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have
become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date such
Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the book entry statements evidencing such Warrant
Shares, as the case may be. If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1(a) and the number
of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon
an exercise, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Trading Days after any exercise and at
its own expense, issue a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares
issuable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is
exercised. No fractional Warrant Shares are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of Warrant Shares to
be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. The Company shall pay any and all taxes which may be payable with respect to
the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant
Shares in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or
inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against
any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination. Notwithstanding
any provision of this Warrant to the contrary, no more than the Eligibility Number of Warrant Shares shall be exercisable hereunder. Notwithstanding
the foregoing in this Section 1(a), a holder whose interest in this Warrant is a beneficial interest in certificate(s) representing this
Warrant held in book-entry form through DTC (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions), shall effect exercises
made pursuant to this Section 1(a) by delivering to DTC (or such other clearing corporation, as applicable) the appropriate instruction
form for exercise, complying with the procedures to effect exercise that are required by DTC (or such other clearing corporation, as applicable),
subject to a Holder’s right to elect to receive a Warrant in certificated form pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agent Agreement,
in which case this sentence shall not apply. For purposes of Regulation SHO, a holder whose interest in this Warrant is a beneficial interest
in certificate(s) representing this Warrant held in book-entry form through DTC (or another established clearing corporation performing
similar functions) shall be deemed to have exercised its interest in this Warrant upon instructing its broker that is a DTC Participant
to exercise its interest in such Warrant, provided that in each such case payment of the applicable Aggregate Exercise Price (other than
in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) one (1) trading day and (ii) the number of trading days comprising
the Standard Settlement Period, in each case following such instruction.
(b) Exercise Price.
For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means $0.0001 per share, subject to adjustment as provided herein.
(c) Company’s Failure
to Timely Deliver Securities. If the Company shall fail to cause its Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder on or prior to the Share
Delivery Date, Warrant Shares pursuant to an exercise notice delivered by the Holder and if after such date the Holder is required by
its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, Common Shares
to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a
“Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within three (3) Trading Days after the Holder’s request, (a) pay in cash to the
Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Common
Shares so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver
to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation
was executed, and (b) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares
for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of
Common Shares that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example,
if the Holder purchases Common Shares having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise
of Common Shares with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (a) of the immediately
preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating
the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s
right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific
performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver Common Shares upon the exercise of
this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
(d) Cashless Exercise.
While the Series B Warrants are outstanding, the Company will use its best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.
If at the time of exercise hereof there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not
available for the issuance of the Warrant Shares to the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such
time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a “Net Number” of Common
Shares determined according to the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):
Net Number = (A x B) - (A x C)
B
For purposes of the foregoing formula:
A= | the
total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised. |
B= | as
applicable: (i) the Weighted Average Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Exercise
Notice if such Exercise Notice is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day
or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours”
(as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of
the Holder, either (y) the Weighted Average Price on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Exercise Notice
or (z) the bid price of the Common Shares on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg as of the time of the Holder’s
execution of the applicable Exercise Notice, if such Exercise Notice is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading
Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours”
on a Trading Day) pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof or (iii) the Weighted Average Price of the Common Shares on the date of the applicable
Exercise Notice if the date of such Exercise Notice is a Trading Day and such Exercise Notice is both executed and delivered pursuant
to Section 1(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day; |
C= | the
Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise. |
If Common Shares are issued pursuant to this Section
1(d), the Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the 1933 Act, the Warrant Shares shall take
on the registered characteristics of the Warrants being exercised. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section
1(d).
(e) Disputes. In the
case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall
promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 12.
(f) Beneficial
Ownership Limitations on Exercises. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not effect the
exercise of any portion of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant
to the terms and conditions of this Warrant and any such exercise shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent
that after giving effect to such exercise, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially
own in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after
giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of Common Shares beneficially owned by
the Holder and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of Common Shares held by the Holder and all other Attribution
Parties plus the number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of such
sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of Common Shares which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining,
unexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Parties and (B) exercise or
conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any
convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants, including the Series A Warrants) and Pre-funded Warrants beneficially
owned by the Holder or any other Attribution Party subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation
contained in this Section 1(f). For purposes of this Section 1(f), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”). For purposes of this Warrant,
in determining the number of outstanding Common Shares the Holder may acquire upon the exercise of this Warrant without exceeding
the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding Common Shares as reflected in (x) the Company’s most
recent Annual Report on Form 20-F, Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-Kor other public filing with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (3)
any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of Common Shares outstanding (the
“Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives an Exercise Notice from the Holder at a time when
the actual number of outstanding Common Shares is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall (i) notify the
Holder in writing of the number of Common Shares then outstanding and, to the extent that such Exercise Notice would otherwise cause
the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 1(f), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder
must notify the Company of a reduced number of Warrant Shares to be purchased pursuant to such Exercise Notice (the number of shares
by which such purchase is reduced, the “Reduction Shares”) and (ii) as soon as reasonably practicable, the
Company shall return to the Holder any exercise price paid by the Holder for the Reduction Shares. For any reason at any time, upon
the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Trading Day confirm orally and in writing or by
electronic mail to the Holder the number of Common Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding Common Shares
shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the
Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event
that the issuance of Common Shares to the Holder upon exercise of this Warrant results in the Holder and the other Attribution
Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding Common
Shares (as determined under Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other
Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the
Excess Shares. As soon as reasonably practicable after the issuance of the Excess Shares has been deemed null and void, the Company
shall return to the Holder the exercise price paid by the Holder for the Excess Shares. For purposes of clarity, the Common Shares
issuable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by
the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the 1934 Act. No
prior inability to exercise this Warrant pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of
this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of exercisability. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed
and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 1(f) to the extent necessary to
correct this paragraph or any portion of this paragraph which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial
ownership limitation contained in this Section 1(f) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect
to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of this
Warrant.
(g) Insufficient Authorized
Shares. If at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved
Common Shares to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant at least a number of Common Shares equal
to 100% of the number of Common Shares as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the exercise of all of this Warrant then outstanding
without regard to any limitation on exercise included herein and assuming that the Eligibility Number is being determined based on a
Reference Price (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, reorganizations, reclassification, combinations, reverse
stock splits or other similar events occurring after the Subscription Date) (the “Required Reserve Amount” and the
failure to have such sufficient number of authorized and unreserved Common Shares, an “Authorized Share Failure”),
then the Company shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized Common Shares to an amount sufficient
to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for this Warrant then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than
sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of its shareholders for the approval
of an increase in the number of authorized Common Shares. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each shareholder
with a proxy statement and shall use its best efforts to solicit its shareholders’ approval of such increase in authorized Common
Shares and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the shareholders that they approve such proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if any such time of an Authorized Share Failure, the Company is able to obtain the approval of holders of a majority of the shares voting
at a general meeting to approve the increase in the number of authorized Common Shares, the Company may satisfy this obligation by obtaining
such approval. In the event that upon any exercise of this Warrant, the Company does not have sufficient authorized shares to deliver
in satisfaction of such exercise, then unless the Holder elects to void such attempted exercise, the Holder may require the Company to
pay to the Holder within three (3) Trading Days of the applicable exercise, cash in an amount equal to the product of (i) the quotient
determined by dividing (x) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company is unable to deliver pursuant to this Section 1(g), by (y) the
total number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise
of this Warrant) and (ii) the Black Scholes Value; provided, that (x) references to “the day immediately following the public announcement
of the applicable Fundamental Transaction” in the definition of “Black Scholes Value” shall instead refer to “the
date the Holder exercises this Warrant and the Company cannot deliver the required number of Warrant Shares because of an Authorized
Share Failure” and (y) clause (iii) of the definition of “Black Scholes Value” shall instead refer to “the underlying
price per share used in such calculation shall be the highest Weighted Average Price during the period beginning on the date of the applicable
date of exercise and the date that the Company makes the applicable cash payment.”
2. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE
PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:
(a) Intentionally omitted.
(b) Adjustment Upon Subdivision
or Combination of Common Shares. If the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock
dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares, the Exercise
Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately
increased. If the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one
or more classes of its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
combination will be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares will be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under

or other securities, property, options, evidence of indebtedness or any other assets by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification,
corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after
the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent
that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of Common Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of
this Warrant (without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise of this Warrant, including without limitation, the Maximum
Percentage) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as
of which the record holders of Common Shares are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however,
that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder and the other Attribution
Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (and
shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such Common Shares as a result of such Distribution (and beneficial ownership) to such
extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times as its right
thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the
Holder shall be granted such Distribution (and any Distributions declared or made on such initial Distribution or on any subsequent Distribution
held similarly in abeyance) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation).
4. PURCHASE RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL
TRANSACTIONS.
(a) Purchase Rights.
In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible
Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Common Shares
(the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights,
the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of Common Shares acquirable upon
complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise of this Warrant, including without limitation,
the Maximum Percentage) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights,
or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Shares are to be determined for the grant, issue or
sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any
such Purchase Right would result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall
not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such Common
Shares as a result of such Purchase Right (and beneficial ownership) to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held
in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution
Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such right (and any Purchase Right granted,
issued or sold on such initial Purchase Right or on any subsequent Purchase Right held similarly in abeyance) to the same extent as if
there had been no such limitation).
(b) Fundamental Transactions.
The Company shall not enter into a Fundamental Transaction unless the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the
Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4(b) pursuant to written
agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Required Holders, including agreements , if so requested by the Holder, to deliver
to each holder of the Series B Warrants in exchange for such Series B Warrants a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written
instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant, including, without limitation, an adjusted exercise price equal
to the value for the Common Shares reflected by the terms of such Fundamental Transaction, and exercisable for a corresponding number
of shares of capital stock equivalent to the Common Shares acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to
any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and satisfactory to the Required Holders, and
with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative
value of the Common Shares pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such adjustments to
the number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately
prior to the occurrence or consummation of such Fundamental Transaction). Any security issuable or potentially issuable to the Holder
pursuant to the terms of this Warrant on the consummation of a Fundamental Transaction that was within the Company’s control to
enter into or to avoid shall be registered and freely tradable by the Holder without any restriction or limitation or the requirement
to be subject to any holding period pursuant to any applicable securities laws. No later than (i)
thirty (30) days prior to the occurrence or consummation of any Fundamental Transaction or (ii) if later, the first Trading Day following
the date the Company first becomes aware of the occurrence or potential occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company shall deliver
written notice thereof via facsimile or electronic mail and overnight courier to the Holder. Upon the occurrence or consummation
of any Fundamental Transaction that was within the Company’s control to enter into or to avoid, it shall be a required condition
to the occurrence or consummation of any such Fundamental Transaction that, the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities,
jointly and severally, shall succeed to, and the Company shall cause any Successor Entity or Successor Entities to jointly and severally
succeed to, and be added to the term “Company” under this Warrant (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction,
each and every provision of this Warrant referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to each of the Company and the Successor
Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally), and the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally,
may exercise every right and power of the Company prior thereto and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company prior thereto under
this Warrant with the same effect as if the Company and such Successor Entity or Successor Entities, jointly and severally, had been named
as the Company in this Warrant, and, solely at the request of the Holder, if the Successor Entity and/or Successor Entities is a publicly
traded corporation whose common stock is quoted on or listed for trading on an Eligible Market, shall deliver (in addition to and without
limiting any right under this Warrant) to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity and/or Successor
Entities evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant and exercisable for a corresponding
number of shares of capital stock of the Successor Entity and/or Successor Entities (the “Successor Capital Stock”) equivalent to the Common Shares acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise
of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction (such corresponding number of shares of Successor Capital Stock to be delivered
to the Holder shall be equal to the greater of (A) the quotient of (i) the aggregate dollar value of all consideration (including cash
consideration and any consideration other than cash (“Non-Cash Consideration”), in such Fundamental Transaction, as
such values are set forth in any definitive agreement for the Fundamental Transaction that has been executed at the time of the first
public announcement of the Fundamental Transaction or, if no such value is determinable from such definitive agreement, as determined
in accordance with Section 12 with the term “Non-Cash Consideration” being substituted for the term “Exercise Price”)
that the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction or the record, eligibility or other
determination date for the event resulting in such Fundamental Transaction, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such
Fundamental Transaction or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Fundamental Transaction
(without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) (the “Aggregate Consideration”) divided by (ii)
the per share Closing Sale Price of such Successor Capital Stock on the Trading Day immediately prior to the consummation or occurrence
of the Fundamental Transaction and (B) the product of (i) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Aggregate Consideration, by (y) the
Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately prior to the consummation or occurrence of the Fundamental Transaction
and (ii) the highest exchange ratio pursuant to which any shareholder of the Company may exchange Common Shares for Successor Capital
Stock) (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to receive any such shares of publicly traded common
stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity would result in the Holder and its other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum
Percentage, if applicable, then the Holder shall not be entitled to receive such shares to such extent (and shall not be entitled to beneficial
ownership of such shares of publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity as a result of such consideration
to such extent) and the portion of such shares shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time or times, as its right thereto
would not result in the Holder and its other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall
be delivered such shares to the extent as if there had been no such limitation), and such security shall be satisfactory to the Holder,
and with an identical exercise price to the Exercise Price hereunder (such adjustments to the number of shares of capital stock and such
exercise price being for the purpose of protecting after the consummation or occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction the economic value
of this Warrant that was in effect immediately prior to the consummation or occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, as elected by
the Holder solely at its option). Upon occurrence or consummation of the Fundamental Transaction that
was within the Company’s control to enter into or to avoid, and it shall be a required condition to the occurrence or consummation
of such Fundamental Transaction that, the Company and the Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall deliver to the Holder confirmation
that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the occurrence or consummation of the Fundamental Transaction,
as elected by the Holder solely at its option, Common Shares, Successor Capital Stock or, in lieu of the Common Shares or Successor Capital
Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction),
such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription
rights), which for purposes of clarification may continue to be Common Shares, if any, that the Holder would have been entitled to receive
upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction or the record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such
Fundamental Transaction, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction or the record, eligibility
or other determination date for the event resulting in such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the exercise
of this Warrant), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. In addition to and not in substitution for any other
rights hereunder, prior to the occurrence or consummation of any Fundamental Transaction that was
within the Company’s control to enter into or to avoid, pursuant to which holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive
securities, cash, assets or other property with respect to or in exchange for Common Shares (a “Corporate Event”),
the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that, and any applicable Successor Entity or Successor Entities shall ensure that,
and it shall be a required condition to the occurrence or consummation of such Corporate Event that, the Holder will thereafter have the
right to receive upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the occurrence or consummation of the Corporate Event, Common Shares
or Successor Capital Stock or, if so elected by the Holder, in lieu of the Common Shares (or other securities, cash, assets or other property)
purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to such Corporate Event (but not in lieu of such items still issuable under Sections
3 and 4(a), which shall continue to be receivable on the Common Shares or on the such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any
other property otherwise receivable with respect to or in exchange for Common Shares), such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets
or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights and any Common Shares) which the Holder
would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence or consummation of such Corporate Event or the record, eligibility or other determination
date for the event resulting in such Corporate Event, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such Corporate Event or the
record, eligibility or other determination date for the event resulting in such Corporate Event (without regard to any limitations on
exercise of this Warrant). Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Holder. The provisions of this Section 4(b) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and Corporate
Events.
5. NON-CIRCUMVENTION.
The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Amended and Restated Articles of Association
or Bylaws, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or
sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this
Warrant, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may be required
to protect the rights of the Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par
value of any Common Shares receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) shall take all
such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable
Common Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (iii) shall, so long as any of the Series B Warrants are outstanding, take all
action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Shares, solely for the purpose of effecting
the exercise of the Series B Warrants, 100% of the number of Common Shares as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the
exercise of the Series B Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise and assuming that the Eligibility
Number is being determined based on a Reference Price (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations,
reorganizations, reclassification, combinations, reverse stock splits or other similar events occurring after the Subscription
Date)).
6. WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED
A SHAREHOLDER. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as a holder of
this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of share capital of the Company for any purpose,
nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder
of this Warrant, any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action
(whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice
of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares which such
Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed
as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a shareholder
of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this Section 6, the
Company shall provide the Holder with copies of the same notices and other information given to the shareholders of the Company generally,
contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the shareholders.
7. REISSUANCE OF WARRANTS.
(a) Transfer of Warrant.
If this Warrant is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue
and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)), registered as the Holder may request, representing
the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the total number of Warrant Shares
then underlying this Warrant is being transferred, a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) to the Holder representing the right

(b) Lost, Stolen or Mutilated
Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation

form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder
a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant.

Warrants. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new
Warrant or Warrants (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares
then underlying this Warrant, and each such new Warrant will represent the right to purchase such portion of such Warrant Shares as is
designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender; provided, however, that no Series B Warrants for fractional Warrant
Shares shall be given.
(d) Issuance of New Warrants.

DTC (or any successor depositary), the Company) for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder
hereof from time to time. The Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner
hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the
contrary.
8. NOTICES. The Company

of such adjustment and (ii) at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes a record (A) with
respect to any dividend or distribution upon the Common Shares, (B) with respect to any grants, issuances or sales of any Options, Convertible

the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Warrant, as to any Warrant not held in certificated form, where this Warrant
provides for notice of any event to a Holder, such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to DTC (or any successor depository) pursuant
to the procedures of DTC (or such successor depository).
9. AMENDMENT AND WAIVER.

prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by it, only if the Company has obtained the written consent of

10. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION;
JURY TRIAL. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction,
validity, interpretation and performance of this Warrant shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving
effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would
cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. The Company hereby irrevocably submits to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of
any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably
waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of
any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding
is improper. The Company hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit,
action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to the Company and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service
of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted
by law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude the Holder from bringing suit or taking other legal action against
the Company in any other jurisdiction to collect on the Company’s obligations to the Holder, to realize on any collateral or any
other security for such obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of the Holder. THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH
OR ARISING OUT OF THIS WARRANT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
11. CONSTRUCTION; HEADINGS.
This Warrant shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and all the Buyers and shall not be construed against any Person as
the drafter hereof. The headings of this Warrant are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation

12. DISPUTE RESOLUTION.
In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company
shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations via facsimile or electronic mail within two (2) Business Days of receipt
of the Exercise Notice giving rise to such dispute, as the case may be, to the Holder. If the Holder and the Company are unable to agree
upon such determination or calculation of the Exercise Price or the Warrant Shares within three (3) Business Days of such disputed determination
or arithmetic calculation being submitted to the Holder, then the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days submit via facsimile or
electronic mail (a) the disputed determination of the Exercise Price to an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Company
and approved by the Holder or (b) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares to the Company’s independent, outside
accountant. The Company shall cause at its expense the investment bank or the accountant, as the case may be, to perform the determinations
or calculations and notify the Company and the Holder of the results no later than ten (10) Business Days from the time it receives the
disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment bank’s or accountant’s determination or calculation, as the case
may be, shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error.
13. REMEDIES, OTHER OBLIGATIONS,
BREACHES AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available
under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive
relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of the Holder to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with
the terms of this Warrant. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the
Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach
or threatened breach, the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining
any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
14. TRANSFER. This Warrant
and the Warrant Shares may be offered for sale, sold, transferred, pledged or assigned without the consent of the Company.
15. SEVERABILITY. If
any provision of this Warrant is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction,
the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that
it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining
provisions of this Warrant so long as this Warrant as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions
of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question
does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the
benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited,
invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited,
invalid or unenforceable provision(s).
16. DISCLOSURE. Upon
receipt or delivery by the Company of any notice in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, unless the Company has in good faith determined
that the matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or its subsidiaries,
the Company shall contemporaneously with any such receipt or delivery publicly disclose such material, nonpublic information on a Report
of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K or otherwise. In the event that the Company believes that a notice contains material, nonpublic
information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries, the Company so shall indicate to the Holder contemporaneously with delivery of
such notice, and in the absence of any such indication, the Holder shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating to such notice
do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries.

Exhibit 4.5
WARRANT AGENT AGREEMENT
This WARRANT AGENT AGREEMENT
(this “Warrant Agreement”) dated as of September [ ], 2024 (the “Issuance Date”) is between
Haoxi Health Technology Limited, a Cayman Islands corporation (the “Company”), and TranShare Corporation (the “Warrant
Agent”). Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the same meaning as in the applicable form of warrant as provided in
Exhibit A.
WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms
of that certain Underwriting Agreement (“Underwriting Agreement”), dated September [ ], 2024, by and among
the Company and EF Hutton LLC, as the representative (the “Representative”) of the underwriters set forth therein,
the Company is engaged in a public offering of [ ] units (each, a “Unit,” and, collectively, the “Units”),
with each Unit consisting of (i) one share of Class A Ordinary Share, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Ordinary Share”)
(or one pre-funded warrant to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share (the “Pre-Funded Warrant”)), (ii) one Series A warrant to
purchase one Class A Ordinary Share (the “Series A Warrant”) (subject to certain adjustments as described in the Series A
Warrant), and (iii) one Series B warrant to purchase such number of Class A Ordinary Share as determined on the Series B Exercise Date
(as defined below), and in accordance with the terms therein (the “Series B Warrant” and together with the Pre-Funded Warrant
and the Series A Warrant, the “Warrants”) at a price of $[ ] per Unit. The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable
on issuance at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share of Class A Ordinary Shares and will not expire until exercised in full. The Series
A Warrants are exercisable upon issuance and have an exercise price of $[ ] per Class A Ordinary Shares (subject to certain
anti-dilution, share combination event protections, and certain adjustments as described in the Series A Warrant) and have a term of 5
years. The Series B Warrants will be exercisable following the Series B Exercise Date (as defined below), will have an exercise price
of $0.0001 per Class A Ordinary Share and will have a term of 5 years. On the sixteenth (16th) Trading Day immediately following
the issuance date of the Series A Warrant (the “Series B Exercise Date”), the exercise price of the Series A Warrant shall
be adjusted to $[X]), or the Reference Price with the meaning ascribed to such term in the Series B Warrant, and the number of shares
issuable immediately prior to such adjustment shall be adjusted to the number of shares determined by multiplying the exercise price then
in effect at issuance by the number of warrant shares acquirable upon exercise of the Series A Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment
and dividing the product thereof by $[X]. The number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series B warrants shall be increased (but
not decreased) to equal to the number (if positive) obtained by subtracting (I) the sum of (x) the number of shares issued at closing
and (y) the number of shares issuable upon exercise in full of any Pre-funded Warrants purchased by the investors at closing, from (II)
the quotient determined by dividing (x) the sum of (i) the aggregate purchase price paid by the investors at closing and (ii) the aggregate
of all exercise prices paid or payable by the investors upon exercise in full of the Pre-Funded Warrants, by (y) [X]. As such, the maximum
number of Class A Ordinary Share underlying the Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants would be an aggregate of approximately [ ]
shares and [ ] shares, respectively.
WHEREAS, the Company has filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a Registration Statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-280174)
(as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Registration Statement”), for the registration under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), of the Units, and such Registration Statement was declared effective
on September [ ], 2024; and
WHEREAS, the Company desires
the Warrant Agent to act on behalf of the Company, and the Warrant Agent is willing to so act, in accordance with the terms set forth
in this Warrant Agreement in connection with the issuance, registration, transfer, exchange and exercise of the Warrants;
WHEREAS, the Company desires
to provide for the provisions of the Warrants, the terms upon which they shall be issued and exercised, and the respective rights, limitation
of rights, and immunities of the Company, the Warrant Agent, and the holders of the Warrants; and
WHEREAS, all acts and things
have been done and performed which are necessary to make the Warrants the valid, binding and legal obligations of the Company, and to
authorize the execution and delivery of this Warrant Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration
of the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Appointment of Warrant Agent. The Company
hereby appoints the Warrant Agent to act as agent for the Company with respect to the Warrants, and the Warrant Agent hereby accepts such
appointment and agrees to perform the same in accordance with the express terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant Agreement (and
no implied terms or conditions).
2. Warrants.
2.1. Forms of Warrants.
The Warrants shall be registered securities and shall be evidenced by a global warrant (“Global Warrant”) in the forms
of Exhibit A-1, Exhibit A-2, or Exhibit A-3 to this Warrant Agreement, which shall initially be represented only by one or more
global warrants deposited with the warrant agent, as custodian on behalf of The Depository Trust Company, or DTC, and registered in the
name of Cede & Co., a nominee of DTC, or as otherwise directed by DTC. The terms of the Global Warrant are incorporated herein by
reference. If DTC subsequently ceases to make its book-entry settlement system available for the Warrants, the Company may instruct the
Warrant Agent regarding making other arrangements for book-entry settlement. In the event that the Warrants are not eligible for, or it
is no longer necessary to have the Warrants available in, book-entry form, the Company may instruct the Warrant Agent to provide written
instructions to DTC to deliver to the Warrant Agent for cancellation the Global Warrant, and the Company shall instruct the Warrant Agent
to deliver to DTC separate certificates evidencing Warrants (“Definitive Certificates” and, together with the Global
Warrant, “Warrant Certificates”) registered as requested through the DTC system.
2.2. Issuance and Registration
of Warrants.
2.2.1. Warrant Register.
The Warrant Agent shall maintain books (“Warrant Register”) for the registration of original issuance and the registration
of transfer of the Warrants.
2.2.2. Issuance of Warrants.
Upon the initial issuance of the Warrants, the Warrant Agent shall issue the Global Warrant and deliver the Warrants in the DTC book-entry
settlement system in accordance with written instructions delivered to the Warrant Agent by the Company. Ownership of security entitlements
in the Warrants shall be shown on, and the transfer of such ownership shall be effected through, records maintained (i) by DTC and (ii)
by institutions that have accounts with DTC (each, a “Participant”).
2.2.3. Beneficial Owner;
Holder. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Warrant, the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat
the person in whose name that Warrant shall be registered on the Warrant Register (the “Holder”) as the absolute owner
of such Warrant for purposes of any exercise thereof, and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall
be affected by any notice to the contrary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Warrant Agent
or any agent of the Company or the Warrant Agent from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished
by DTC governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Warrant. The rights of beneficial owners in a
Warrant evidenced by the Global Warrant shall be exercised by the Holder or a Participant through the DTC system, except to the extent
set forth herein or in the Global Warrant.
2.2.4. Delivery of Warrant
Certificate. A Holder has the right to elect at any time or from time to time a Warrant Exchange (as defined below) pursuant to a
Warrant Certificate Request Notice (as defined below). Upon written notice by a Holder to the Company and the Warrant Agent for the exchange
of some or all of such Holder’s Global Warrants for a separate certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1, Exhibit
A-2, or Exhibit A-3, as applicable (such separate certificate, a “Definitive Certificate”) evidencing the same
number of Warrants, which request shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (a “Warrant Certificate Request Notice”
and the date of delivery of such Warrant Certificate Request Notice by the Holder, the “Warrant Certificate Request Notice Date”
and the surrender by the Holder to the Warrant Agent of a number of Global Warrants for the same number of Warrants evidenced by a Warrant
Certificate, a “Warrant Exchange”), the Company and the Warrant Agent shall promptly effect the Warrant Exchange and the Company
and the Warrant Agent shall promptly issue and deliver to the Holder a Definitive Certificate for such number of Warrants in the name
set forth in the Warrant Certificate Request Notice. Such Definitive Certificate shall be dated the original issue date of the Warrants,
shall be executed by facsimile by an authorized signatory of the Company, shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1,
Exhibit A-2, or Exhibit A-3, as applicable, and shall be reasonably acceptable in all respects to such Holder. In connection
with a Warrant Exchange, the Company and the Warrant Agent agree to deliver the Definitive Certificate to the Holder within ten (10) Business
Days of the Warrant Certificate Request Notice pursuant to the delivery instructions in the Warrant Certificate Request Notice (“Warrant
Certificate Delivery Date”). If the Company and the Warrant Agent fail for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Definitive
Certificate subject to the Warrant Certificate Request Notice by the Warrant Certificate Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder,
in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares evidenced by such Definitive Certificate (based
on the VWAP (as defined in the Warrants) of the Class A Ordinary Shares on the Warrant Certificate Request Notice Date), $10 per Business
Day for each Business Day after such Warrant Certificate Delivery Date until such Definitive Certificate is delivered or, prior to delivery
of such Warrant Certificate, the Holder rescinds such Warrant Exchange. The Company covenants and agrees that, upon the date of delivery
of the Warrant Certificate Request Notice, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of the Definitive Certificate and, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Definitive Certificate shall be deemed for all purposes to contain all of the terms and
conditions of the Warrants evidenced by such Warrant Certificate and the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Warrant Agent shall act as warrant agent with respect to any Definitive Certificate requested and issued pursuant to this
section. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event of inconsistency between any provision in
this Agreement and any provision in a Definitive Certificate, as it may from time to time be amended, the terms of such Definitive Certificate
shall control.
A Holder of a Definitive Certificate
(pursuant to a Warrant Exchange or otherwise) has the right to elect at any time or from time to time a Global Warrants Exchange (as defined
below) pursuant to a Global Warrants Request Notice (as defined below). Upon written notice by a Holder to the Company and the Warrant
Agent for the exchange of some or all of such Holder’s Warrants evidenced by a Definitive Certificate for a beneficial interest
in Global Warrants held in book-entry form evidencing the same number of Warrants, which request shall be in the form attached hereto
as Exhibit C (a “Global Warrants Request Notice” and the date of delivery of such Global Warrants
Request Notice by the Holder, the “Global Warrants Request Notice Date” and the surrender upon delivery by the Holder
of the Warrants evidenced by Definitive Certificates for the same number of Warrants evidenced by a beneficial interest in Global Warrants
held in book-entry form, a “Global Warrants Exchange”), the Warrant Agent shall promptly effect the Global Warrants
Exchange and shall promptly issue and deliver to the Holder Global Warrants for such number of Warrants in the Global Warrants Request
Notice, which beneficial interest in such Global Warrants shall be delivered to the Holder pursuant to the instructions in the Global
Warrants Request Notice. In connection with a Global Warrants Exchange, the Warrant Agent shall deliver the beneficial interest in such
Global Warrants to the Holder within ten (10) Business Days of the Global Warrants Request Notice pursuant to the delivery instructions
in the Global Warrant Request Notice (“Global Warrants Delivery Date”). If the Company fails for any reason to deliver
to the Holder Global Warrants subject to the Global Warrants Request Notice by the Global Warrants Delivery Date, the Company shall pay
to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares evidenced by such Global Warrants
(based on the VWAP (as defined in the Warrants) of the Class A Ordinary Shares on the Global Warrants Request Notice Date), $10 per Business
Day for each Business Day after such Global Warrants Delivery Date until such Global Warrants are delivered or, prior to delivery of such
Global Warrants, the Holder rescinds such Global Warrants Exchange. The Company covenants and agrees that, upon the date of delivery of
the Global Warrants Request Notice, the Holder shall be deemed to be the beneficial holder of such Global Warrants.
2.2.5. Execution. The
Warrant Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Company by any authorized officer of the Company (an “Authorized Officer”),
which need not be the same authorized signatory for all of the Warrant Certificates, either manually or by facsimile signature. The Warrant
Certificates shall be countersigned by an authorized signatory of the Warrant Agent, which need not be the same signatory for all of the
Warrant Certificates, and no Warrant Certificate shall be valid for any purpose unless so countersigned. In case any Authorized Officer
of the Company that signed any of the Warrant Certificates ceases to be an Authorized Officer of the Company before countersignature by
the Warrant Agent and issuance and delivery by the Company, such Warrant Certificates, nevertheless, may be countersigned by the Warrant
Agent, issued and delivered with the same force and effect as though the person who signed such Warrant Certificates had not ceased to
be such officer of the Company; and any Warrant Certificate may be signed on behalf of the Company by any person who, at the actual date
of the execution of such Warrant Certificate, shall be an Authorized Officer of the Company authorized to sign such Warrant Certificate,
although at the date of the execution of this Warrant Agreement any such person was not such an Authorized Officer.
2.2.6. Registration of Transfer.
At any time at or prior to the Expiration Date (as defined below), a transfer of any Warrants may be registered and any Warrant Certificate
or Warrant Certificates may be split up, combined or exchanged for another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates evidencing the
same number of Warrants as the Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates surrendered. Any Holder desiring to register the transfer of
Warrants or to split up, combine or exchange any Warrant Certificate shall make such request in writing delivered to the Warrant Agent,
and shall surrender to the Warrant Agent the Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates evidencing the Warrants the transfer of which
is to be registered or that is or are to be split up, combined or exchanged and, in the case of registration of transfer, shall provide
a signature guarantee. Thereupon, the Warrant Agent shall countersign and deliver to the person entitled thereto a Warrant Certificate
or Warrant Certificates, as the case may be, as so requested. The Company and the Warrant Agent may require payment, by the Holder requesting
a registration of transfer of Warrants or a split-up, combination or exchange of a Warrant Certificate (but, for purposes of clarity,
not upon the exercise of the Warrants and issuance of Warrant Shares to the Holder), of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with such registration of transfer, split-up, combination or exchange, together with reimbursement
to the Company and the Warrant Agent of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto.
2.2.7. Loss, Theft and Mutilation
of Warrant Certificates. Upon receipt by the Company and the Warrant Agent of evidence reasonably satisfactory to them of the loss,
theft, destruction or mutilation of a Warrant Certificate, and, in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security in customary
form and amount, and reimbursement to the Company and the Warrant Agent of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender
to the Warrant Agent and cancellation of the Warrant Certificate if mutilated, the Warrant Agent shall, on behalf of the Company, countersign
and deliver a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor to the Holder in lieu of the Warrant Certificate so lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated.
The Warrant Agent may charge the Holder an administrative fee for processing the replacement of lost Warrant Certificates. The Warrant
Agent may receive compensation from the surety companies or surety agents for administrative services provided to them.
2.2.8. Proxies. The Holder
of a Warrant may grant proxies or otherwise authorize any person, including the Participants and beneficial holders that may own interests
through the Participants, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under this Agreement or the Warrants; provided,
however, that at all times that Warrants are evidenced by a Global Warrant, exercise of those Warrants shall be effected on their
behalf by Participants through DTC in accordance the procedures administered by DTC.
3. Terms and Exercise of Warrants.
3.1. Exercise Price.
The aggregate exercise price of the Pre-funded Warrants, except for a nominal exercise price of $0.0001 per Warrant Share underlying therein,

exercise price of $0.0001 per Warrant Share) shall be required to be paid by the Holder to any Person to effect any exercise of this Warrant.
The Holder shall not be entitled to the return or refund of all, or any portion, of such pre-paid aggregate exercise price under any circumstance

price and number of Class A Ordinary Shares issuable under the Series A Warrants are subject to adjustment and the number of Class A Ordinary
Shares issuable under the Series B Warrant will be determined on the sixteenth (16th) Trading Day immediately following the
issuance date of Series B Warrants, or the Series B Exercise Date, subject to a pricing floor of 20% of the Minimum Price pursuant to

shares and [ ] shares, respectively.
3.2. Duration of Warrants.
The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable on issuance at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share of Class A Ordinary Shares and will not
expire until exercised in full. The Series A Warrants are exercisable upon issuance and have a term of 5 years. The Series B Warrants

exercise Series B Warrants by delivering to the Warrant Agent, not later than [5:00 P.M.], Eastern Standard Time, on any business day
after the Series B Exercise Date and before the Expiration Date a notice of exercise of the Series B Warrants to be exercised (i) in the
form attached to the Global Warrant and (ii) (A) payment to the Company of an amount equal to the applicable Aggregate Exercise Price
in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds or (B) by notifying the Company that this Series B Warrant is being exercised
pursuant to a Cashless Exercise. All other requirements for the exercise of a Series B Warrant shall be as set forth in the Series B Warrant.
3.3.2. The Warrant Agent shall,
by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Trading Day following the Exercise Date of any Warrant, advise the Company, the transfer agent
and registrar for the Company’s Class A Ordinary Shares, in respect of (i) the number of Warrant Shares indicated on the Notice
of Exercise as issuable upon such exercise with respect to such exercised Warrants, (ii) the instructions of the Holder or Participant,
as the case may be, provided to the Warrant Agent with respect to the delivery of the Warrant Shares and the number of Warrants that remain
outstanding after such exercise and (iii) such other information as the Company or such transfer agent and registrar shall reasonably
request. The Company shall issue the Warrant Shares in compliance with the terms of the Warrant.
3.3.3. Valid Issuance.
All Warrant Shares issued by the Company upon the proper exercise of a Warrant in conformity with this Warrant Agreement shall be validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
3.3.4. No Fractional Exercise.
Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Warrant Agreement to the contrary, no fractional shares or scrip representing fractional
shares shall be issued upon the exercise of the Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be rounded up
to the next whole share.
3.3.5. No Transfer Taxes.
The Company shall not be required to pay any stamp or other tax or governmental charge required to be paid in connection with any transfer
involved in the issue of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of Warrants; and in the event that any such transfer is involved, the Company
shall not be required to issue or deliver any Warrant Shares until such tax or other charge shall have been paid or it has been established
to the Company’s satisfaction that no such tax or other charge is due.
3.3.6. Date of Issuance.
The Company will treat an exercising Holder as a beneficial owner of the Warrant Shares as of the Exercise Date, and for purposes of Regulation
SHO, a holder whose interest in this Warrant is a beneficial interest in certificate(s) representing this Warrant held in book-entry form
through DTC shall be deemed to have exercised its interest in this Warrant upon instructing its broker that is a DTC participant to exercise
its interest in this Warrant, except that, if the Exercise Date is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such
person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such shares at the open of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock
transfer books are open.
4. Adjustments of Exercise Price and Number
of Warrant Shares. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares of the applicable Warrants shall be adjusted from time to time
as provided in the Global Warrant.
5. Restrictive Legends; Fractional
Warrants. In the event that a Warrant Certificate surrendered for transfer bears a restrictive legend, the Warrant Agent shall
not register that transfer until the Warrant Agent has received an opinion of counsel for the Company stating that such transfer may
be made and indicating whether the Warrants must also bear a restrictive legend upon that transfer. The Warrant Agent shall not be
required to effect any registration of transfer or exchange which will result in the transfer of or delivery of a Warrant
Certificate for a fraction of a Warrant.
6. Other Provisions Relating to Rights of Holders
of Warrants.
6.1. No Rights as Shareholder.
Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, a Holder, solely in its capacity as a holder of Warrants, shall not be entitled to vote
or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of share capital of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant
Agreement be construed to confer upon a Holder, solely in its capacity as the registered holder of Warrants, any of the rights of a shareholder
of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification
of share capital, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights
or rights to participate in new issues of shares, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares which it is
then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of Warrants.
6.2. Reservation of Class
A Ordinary Shares. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized but unissued shares of Class
A Ordinary Shares that will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants issued pursuant to this Warrant Agreement.
7. Concerning the Warrant Agent and Other Matters.
7.1. Any instructions given
to the Warrant Agent orally, as permitted by any provision of this Warrant Agreement, shall be confirmed in writing by the Company as
soon as practicable. The Warrant Agent shall not be liable or responsible and shall be fully authorized and protected for acting, or failing
to act, in accordance with any oral instructions which do not conform with the written confirmation received in accordance with this Section

writing to any earlier date) unless prior to taking any such action, the Warrant Agent shall have received written instructions in
response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted; (h) may consult with counsel satisfactory to the Warrant

to act until the question or dispute has been judicially settled (and, if appropriate, it may file a suit in interpleader or for a declaratory
judgment for such purpose) by final judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction, binding on all persons interested in the matter
which is no longer subject to review or appeal, or settled by a written document in form and substance satisfactory to Warrant Agent and
executed by the Company and each such Holder. In addition, the Warrant Agent may require for such purpose, but shall not be obligated
to require, the execution of such written settlement by all the Holders and all other persons that may have an interest in the settlement.
7.5. The Company covenants
to indemnify the Warrant Agent and hold it harmless from and against any loss, liability, claim or expense (“Loss”)
arising out of or in connection with the Warrant Agent’s duties under this Warrant Agreement, including the costs and expenses of
defending itself against any Loss, unless such Loss shall have been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be a result of
the Warrant Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
7.6. Unless terminated earlier
by the parties hereto, this Agreement shall terminate 90 days after the earlier of the latest Expiration Date and the date on which no
Warrants remain outstanding (the “Termination Date”). On the business day following the Termination Date, the Agent

7.7. If any provision of this

party or is bound; (c) this Warrant Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes the legal, valid, binding
and enforceable obligation of the Company; (d) the Warrants will comply in all material respects with all applicable requirements of law;

The Company shall pay any and all taxes which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise

(30) days’ notice in writing to the Warrant Agent or successor Warrant Agent, or such shorter period of time as agreed. If the office
of the Warrant Agent becomes vacant by resignation, termination or incapacity to act or otherwise, the Company shall appoint in writing

shall be a person organized and existing under the laws of any state of the United States of America, in good standing, and authorized
under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. After appointment,

Warrant Agent with like effect as if originally named as Warrant Agent hereunder, without any further act or deed, and except for executing
and delivering documents as provided in the sentence that follows, the predecessor Warrant Agent shall have no further duties, obligations,
responsibilities or liabilities hereunder, but shall be entitled to all rights that survive the termination of this Warrant Agreement
and the resignation or removal of the Warrant Agent, including but not limited to its right to indemnity hereunder. If for any reason
it becomes necessary or appropriate or at the request of the Company, the predecessor Warrant Agent shall execute and deliver, at the
expense of the Company, an instrument transferring to such successor Warrant Agent all the authority, powers, and rights of such predecessor
Warrant Agent hereunder; and upon request of any successor Warrant Agent the Company shall make, execute, acknowledge, and deliver any
and all instruments in writing for more fully and effectually vesting in and confirming to such successor Warrant Agent all such authority,
powers, rights, immunities, duties, and obligations.
7.14.2. Notice of Successor
Warrant Agent. In the event a successor Warrant Agent shall be appointed, the Company shall give notice thereof to the predecessor
Warrant Agent and the transfer agent for the Ordinary Shares not later than the effective date of any such appointment.
7.14.3. Merger or Consolidation
of Warrant Agent. Any person into which the Warrant Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any person
resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Warrant Agent shall be a party or any person succeeding to the shareowner
services business of the Warrant Agent or any successor Warrant Agent shall be the successor Warrant Agent under this Warrant Agreement,
without any further act or deed. For purposes of this Warrant Agreement, “person” shall mean any individual, firm, corporation,
partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, association, trust or other entity, and shall include any successor (by merger
or otherwise) thereof or thereto.

Dear Sirs
Haoxi Health Technology Limited (the Company)
We have been requested to provide you with an opinion on matters of Cayman
Islands law in relation to the Company’s registration statement on Form F-1, including all amendments or supplements thereto, filed
with the United States Securities Exchange Commission under the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the Act), as amended (including
its exhibits, the Registration Statement) related to the offering and sale (the Offering) of (i) 4,166,666 units (the Firm
Units) with each Firm Unit consisting of (a) one class A ordinary share of a par value of US$0.0001 each of the Company (the Class
A Ordinary Share) or one pre-funded warrant, exercisable on issuance at an exercise price of US$0.0001 per share of Class A Ordinary
Shares and will not expire until exercised in full, to purchase one Class A Ordinary Shares (the Prefunded Warrant), (b) one series
A warrant (the Series A Warrant) to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share, and (c) one series B warrant (the Series B Warrant)
to purchase certain number of Class A Ordinary Shares as to be determined on the sixteenth trading day following the closing of the Offering
(the Prefunded Warrant, the Series A Warrant and the Series B Warrant, together are referred herein as the Warrant, and each Class
A Ordinary Share issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants, is referred herein as the Warrant Share), and (ii) up to an additional
15% of the total number of the Units (as defined below) to be offered by the Company in the Offering (excluding the Units subject to this
option) issuable upon exercise of an option granted to the Underwriters by the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement (as defined
below) (the Option Units and together with the Firm Units, collectively, the Units).
This opinion letter is given in accordance with
the terms of the legal matters section of the Registration Statement.
A reference to a Schedule is
a reference to a schedule to this opinion and the headings herein are for convenience only and do not affect the construction of this
opinion.
For the purposes
of giving this opinion, we have examined originals, copies, or drafts of the documents listed in Part A of Schedule 1 (collectively, the
Documents and, individually, a Document). In addition, we have examined the corporate and other documents and conducted
the searches listed in Part B of Schedule 1. We have not made any

In giving this opinion
we have relied upon the assumptions set forth in Schedule 2 without
having carried out any independent investigation or verification in respect of those assumptions.
On the basis of
the examinations and assumptions referred to above and subject to the qualifications set forth in Schedule
3 and the limitations set forth below, we are of the opinion that:
Corporate status
| (a) | The Company has been duly incorporated as an exempted company
and is validly existing and in good standing with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands (the Registrar). The Company
is a separate legal entity and is subject to suit in its own name and has the capacity to sue in its own name. |
Corporate power
| (b) | The Company has all requisite power under the Memorandum and
Articles to exercise its rights and perform its obligations under and as described in the Registration Statement. |
Shares and Warrants
| (c) | The Class A Ordinary Shares included in the Units to be offered
and issued by the Company as contemplated by the Registration Statement have been duly authorised for issue and when: |
| (i) | issued by the Company against payment in full of the consideration
thereof in accordance with the terms set out in the Registration Statement, the terms in the Underwriting Agreement (as defined in Schedule
1) referred to within the Registration Statement, the Board Resolutions and the Memorandum and Articles; and |
| (ii) | such issuance of the Class A Ordinary Shares have been duly
registered in the Company’s register of members as fully paid shares, |
will be validly issued,
fully paid and non-assessable.
| (d) | The Warrants (included in the Units to be offered and issued
by the Company as contemplated by the Registration Statement) and the underlying Warrant Shares to be issued under the Warrants have
been duly authorised and, when: |
| (i) | issued and sold in accordance with the Registration Statement,
the duly signed and delivered Underwriting Agreement, the duly passed Board Resolutions and the Memorandum and Articles, and once consideration
as stated in the Underwriting Agreement and the Purchase Warrant, which shall not be less than the par value per share, is paid per share;
and |
| (ii) | such issuance of the Warrant Shares have been duly registered
in the Company’s register of members as fully paid shares, |
will be validly issued,
fully paid and non-assessable.
No litigation revealed
| (e) | Based solely on our investigation of the Register of Writs
and Other Originating Process (Register of Writs), no litigation was pending in the Cayman Islands against the Company, nor had
any petition been presented or order made for the winding up of the Company, as of the close of business on the day before our inspection. |
We offer no opinion:
| (a) | as to any laws other than the laws of the Cayman Islands,
and we have not, for the purposes of this opinion, made any investigation of the laws of any other jurisdiction, and we express no opinion
as to the meaning, validity, or effect of references in the Documents to statutes, rules, regulations, codes or judicial authority of
any jurisdiction other than the Cayman Islands; |
| (b) | except to the extent that this opinion expressly provides
otherwise, as to the commercial terms of, or the validity, enforceability or effect of the Documents (or as to how the commercial terms
of the Documents reflect the intentions of the parties), the accuracy of representations, the fulfilment of warranties or conditions,
the occurrence of events of default or terminating events or the existence of any conflicts or inconsistencies among the Documents and
any other agreements into which the Company may have entered or any other documents; or |
| (c) | as to whether the acceptance, execution or performance of
the Company’s obligations under the Documents will result in the breach of or infringe any other agreement, deed or document (other

Schedule
3
Qualifications
Good Standing
| 1 | Under the Companies Act annual returns in respect of the Company must be filed with the Registrar of Companies
in the Cayman Islands, together with payment of annual filing fees. A failure to file annual returns and pay annual filing fees may result
in the Company being struck off the Register of Companies, following which its assets will vest in the Financial Secretary of the Cayman
Islands and will be subject to disposition or retention for the benefit of the public of the Cayman Islands. |
| 2 | In good standing means only that as of the date of the Good Standing Certificate the Company is
up-to-date with the filing of its annual returns and payment of annual fees with the Registrar of Companies. We have made no enquiries
into the Company’s good standing with respect to any filings or payment of fees, or both, that it may be required to make under the laws
of the Cayman Islands other than the Companies Act. |
Register of Writs
| 3 | Our examination of the Register of Writs cannot conclusively reveal whether or not there is: |
| (a) | any current or pending litigation in the Cayman Islands against the Company; or |
| (b) | any application for the winding up or dissolution of the Company or the appointment of any liquidator
or trustee in bankruptcy in respect of the Company or any of its assets, |
as notice of these
matters might not be entered on the Register of Writs immediately or updated expeditiously or the court file associated with the matter
or the matter itself may not be publicly available (for example, due to sealing orders having been made). Furthermore, we have not conducted
a search of the summary court. Claims in the summary court are limited to a maximum of CI $20,000.
Choice of law
| 4 | Where the Proper Law of a Document is not Cayman Islands law: |
| (a) | the courts of the Cayman Islands will not recognise the choice of its Proper Law as the governing law
of a Document to the extent that such choice of Proper Law would be incompatible with the public policy of Cayman Islands law; and |
| (b) | in any action brought in respect of a Document in the courts of the Cayman Islands, those courts will
not apply its Proper Law unless that law is pleaded and proved in the courts of the Cayman Islands, nor will they apply that law: |
| (i) | to matters of procedure; and |
| (ii) | to the extent the application of that Proper Law would be incompatible with the public policy of Cayman
Islands law or contrary to mandatorily-applicable provisions of Cayman Islands law. |
Enforceability
| 5 | In this opinion, the term “enforceable” means that the relevant obligations are of a type
that the courts of the Cayman Islands will ordinarily enforce, but it does not mean that those obligations will necessarily be enforced
in all circumstances in accordance with their terms. In particular, but without limitation: |
| (a) | enforcement may be limited by insolvency or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors; |
| (b) | enforcement may be limited by general principles of equity. In particular, equitable remedies, such as
specific performance and injunction, will only be granted by a court in its discretion and may not be available where the court considers
damages to be an adequate remedy; |
| (c) | a claim may be barred by statutes of limitation, or it may be or become subject to defences of set-off,
abatement, laches or counterclaim and the doctrines of estoppel, waiver, election, forbearance or abandonment; |
| (d) | a court may refuse to allow unjust enrichment; |
| (e) | a person who is not a party to a Document that is governed by Cayman Islands law may not have the benefit
of and may not be able to enforce its terms except to the extent that the relevant Document expressly provides that the third party may,
in its own right, enforce such rights (subject to and in accordance with the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act, 2014; |
| (f) | enforcement of an obligation of a party under a Document may be invalidated or vitiated by reason of fraud,
duress, misrepresentation or undue influence or it may be limited by Cayman Islands law dealing with frustration of contracts; |
| (g) | a provision of a Document that fetters any statutory power of a Cayman Islands’ company, such as
a provision restricting the company’s power to commence its winding up, to alter its memorandum and articles of association or to
increase its share capital, may not be enforceable; |
| (h) | the effectiveness of a provision in a Document releasing a party from a liability or duty otherwise owed
may be limited by law; |
| (i) | a court will not enforce a provision of a Document to the extent that it may be illegal or contrary to
public policy in the Cayman Islands or purports to bar a party unconditionally from, seeking any relief from the courts of the Cayman
Islands or any other court or tribunal chosen by the parties; |
| (j) | a provision of a Document is construed as being penal in nature, in that it provides that a breach of
a primary obligation results in a secondary obligation that imposes a detriment on the contract-breaker out of all proportion to any legitimate
interest of the innocent party in the enforcement of the primary obligation will not be enforceable (and we express no opinion as to whether
such a provision is proportionate); |
| (k) | a court may refuse to give effect to a provision in a Document (including a provision that relates to
contractual interest on a judgment debt) that it considers usurious; |
| (l) | a court may not enforce a provision of a Document to the extent that the transactions contemplated by
it contravene economic or other sanctions imposed in respect of certain states or jurisdictions by a treaty, law, order or regulation
applicable to the Cayman Islands; |
| (m) | a court may refuse to give effect to a provision in a Document that involves the enforcement of any foreign
revenue or penal laws; |
| (n) | where a contract provides for the payment of legal fees and expenses incurred by a party to that contract
in enforcing the contract, a party who succeeds in enforcing the contract is entitled to recover by court judgment the amount of the legal
fees and expenses found to be due under the terms of the contract. In all other cases, costs of legal proceedings can only be recovered
from another party to the proceedings by a court order, which is a matter for the discretion of the court, and such costs are liable to
taxation (assessment by the court); and |
| (o) | enforcement or performance of any provision in a Document which relates to a Relevant Interest may be
prohibited or restricted if any such Relevant Interest is or becomes subject to a Restrictions Notice. |
A court may determine
in its discretion the extent of enforceability of a provision of a Document that provides for or requires, as the case may be:
| (a) | severability of any provision of the Documents held to be illegal or unenforceable; |
| (b) | any calculation, determination or certificate to be conclusive or binding, including if that calculation,
determination or certificate is fraudulent or manifestly inaccurate or has an unreasonable or arbitrary basis; |
| (c) | the vesting in a party of a discretion or of a power to determine a matter in its opinion, if that discretion
is exercised unreasonably or the opinion is not based on reasonable grounds; or |
| (d) | written amendments or waivers of the Documents, if a purported amendment or waiver is effected by oral
agreement or course of conduct, |
| (e) | and we express no opinion on any provisions of that type. |
| 6 | The law of the Cayman Islands may not recognise a difference between negligence and gross negligence. |
| 7 | Where any Document is dated “as of” a specific date, although the parties to that Document
have agreed between themselves that, as a matter of contract and to the extent possible, their rights and obligations under it take effect
from a date prior to the date of execution and delivery, the Document still comes into effect on the date it is actually executed and
delivered. Rights of third parties under that Document also take effect from the date the Document is actually executed and delivered,
rather than the “as of” date. |
Jurisdiction clauses
| 8 | Exclusive jurisdiction: Notwithstanding any provision of the Documents providing for the exclusive jurisdiction
of the courts of another country, the courts of the Cayman Islands may not stay or strike out proceedings brought in contravention of
such a provision if the claimant shows that it is just and proper to allow such proceedings to continue. In relation to some matters the
courts of the place of incorporation have exclusive jurisdiction and, where that place of incorporation or registration is not the Cayman
Islands, the Cayman Islands court will not accept jurisdiction. |
| 9 | Non-exclusive jurisdiction: Notwithstanding any provision of the Documents providing for the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of the courts of another country, a Cayman Islands court will only refuse leave to serve a writ outside of the Cayman Islands
if the Cayman Islands are not the most appropriate forum and will only stay or strike out proceedings if pursuing the case in the Cayman
Islands court would be vexatious or oppressive. There is no presumption that the nomination of a non-exclusive forum will give priority
to that forum over the Cayman Islands. |
Stamp duty
| 10 | Cayman Islands stamp duty will be payable if a Document is executed in, or brought to, the Cayman Islands
(including being produced to a court of the Cayman Islands). |
Public offering in the Cayman
Islands
| 11 | The Company is prohibited by section 175 of the Companies Act from making any invitation to the public
in the Cayman Islands to subscribe for any of its securities and accordingly the Company will not issue or deliver the Registration Statement
or the Prospectus from or within the Cayman Islands. |
| 12 | None of the party to the Documents have or will negotiate, prepare, execute or deliver the Documents in
or from within the Cayman Islands. |
Legal ownership of shares
| 13 | Our opinion refers solely to the legal owners of the shares in the Company as disclosed in the Register
of Members. We make no comment as to the underlying beneficial owners of the shares. |
| 14 | The Register of Members only reveals the shareholders and their respective shareholdings in the Company
immediately prior to the closing of the initial public offering on 30 January 2024. |
Non-Assessable
| 15 | In this opinion, the phrase “non-assessable” means, with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares
in the Company, that a shareholder shall not, solely by virtue of its status as a shareholder, be liable for additional assessments or
calls on the Class A Ordinary Shares by the Company or its creditors (except in exceptional circumstances, such as involving fraud, the
establishment of an agency relationship or an illegal or improper purpose or other circumstance in which a court may be prepared to pierce
or lift the corporate veil). |

with the Form of Pre-funded Warrant and the Form of Series A Warrant, the “Forms of Warrants”) to the Registration Statement
without regard to any agreement or other document referenced in any such agreement (including agreements or other documents incorporated
by reference or attached or annexed thereto); (vii) as provided in Section 10 of the Form of Pre-funded Warrant, Section 9 of the Form
of Series A Warrant, and Section 10 of the Form of Series B Warrant, all questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement

In connection with this matter,
we have examined the Registration Statement, including the exhibits thereto, and such other documents, corporate records, and instruments
and have examined such laws and regulations as we have deemed necessary for purposes of rendering the opinions set forth herein.
We are members of the Bar of the
State of New York. We do not hold ourselves out as being conversant with, or expressing any opinion with respect to, the laws of any jurisdiction
other than the federal laws of the United States of America and the laws of the State of New York. Accordingly, the opinions expressed
herein are expressly limited to the federal laws of the United States of America and the laws of the State of New York.
Based upon and subject to the
foregoing, we are of the opinion that (i) when the Units have been duly executed and delivered by the Company against payment of the consideration
therefor pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, such Units will constitute binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the
Company in accordance with the respective terms of the Class A Ordinary Shares and the Warrants; and (ii) when the Warrants included in
the Units have been duly executed and delivered by the Company against payment of the consideration therefor pursuant to the Underwriting
Agreement, such Warrants will constitute binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their
terms.
Our opinions set forth above with
respect to the validity or binding effect of any security or obligation may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
fraudulent conveyance, marshaling, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement generally of the rights and remedies of
creditors and secured parties or the obligations of debtors, (ii) general principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding in
equity or at law), including, but not limited to, principles limiting the availability of specific performance or injunctive relief, and
concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, (iii) the possible unenforceability under certain circumstances
of provisions providing for indemnification, contribution, exculpation, release or waiver that may be contrary to public policy or violative
of federal or state securities laws, rules or regulations, and (iv) the effect of course of dealing, course of performance, oral agreements
or the like that would modify the terms of an agreement or the respective rights or obligations of the parties under an agreement.
This opinion letter speaks only
as of the date hereof and we assume no obligation to update or supplement this opinion letter if any applicable laws change after the
date of this opinion letter or if we become aware after the date of this opinion letter of any facts, whether existing before or arising
after the date hereof, that might change the opinions expressed above.
This opinion letter is furnished
in connection with the Registration Statement and may not be relied upon for any other purpose without our prior written consent in each
instance. Further, no portion of this letter may be quoted, circulated or referred to in any other document for any other purpose without
our prior written consent.
We hereby consent to the filing
of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the use of our name as it appears under the caption “Legal Matters”
in the 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 Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.
