, the PCAOB will determine whether it can inspect and investigate completely audit firms in mainland China and Hong Kong, among other jurisdictions. If the PCAOB determines in the future that it no longer has full access to inspect and investigate completely accounting firms in mainland China and Hong Kong and we use an accounting firm headquartered in one of these jurisdictions to issue an audit report on our financial statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, we would be identified as a Commission-Identified Issuer following the filing of the annual report on Form 20-F for the relevant fiscal year. In accordance with the HFCAA, our securities would be prohibited from being traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter trading market in the United States if we are identified as a Commission-Identified Issuer for two consecutive years in the future. Although our ordinary shares have been listed on the SEHK and AIM and the ADSs and ordinary shares are fully fungible, we cannot assure your that an active trading market for our ordinary shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange or AIM of the London Stock Exchange will be sustained or that the ADSs can be converted and traded with sufficient market recognition and liquidity, if our shares and ADSs are prohibited from trading in the United States. A prohibition of being able to trade in the United States would substantially impair your ability to sell or purchase our ADSs when you wish to do so, and the risk and uncertainty associated with delisting would have a negative impact on the price of our ADSs. Also, such a prohibition would significantly affect our ability to raise capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all, which would have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and prospects.

The listings of our shares in multiple venues may adversely affect the liquidity and value of them.

Our ADSs continue to be listed on Nasdaq, and our shares continue to be admitted to trading on the AIM. Our shares were listed on the SEHK in June 2021. The listing of the shares on the AIM and the SEHK, and the ADSs on Nasdaq, may reduce the liquidity of these securities in one or each of these markets and may adversely affect the development of an active trading market for the shares in each of these markets. The price of the shares could also be adversely affected by trading on Nasdaq. Similarly, the price of the ADSs could also be adversely affected by trading on the AIM and the SEHK. We may also seek further listings on other stock exchanges such as the Shanghai Stock Exchange, which could
